On a question from the Council, Finance Director Anderson said the Council is allowed to move money from one department to another during the last three months of the Fiscal Year. He said the City Manager can move money from one line item to another within a department at his discretion. He said the Council could make an amendment to budget, but couldn’t formally act on it until the last three months of the Fiscal Year. Council discussed putting the non-profits in the department they are benefitting. Finance Director Anderson said it would take an amendment to the budget to move them to the other departments tonight. He suggested leaving them as is and, later on, toward the end of the year, study the issue and move the money as decided. It was decided to go ahead and fund the non-profits with the allocated money and discuss more funding at a future date.
