Background/Summary: 
The City Council approved Ordinance No. 4085, establishing a budget for fiscal year ending September 30, 2017, which included a $24,000 added allocation to the general contingency fund to accommodate the legal department’s budgetary needs.  The City Attorney was appointed toward the end of the fiscal year and did not have earlier opportunity to obtain additional allocations for expanding the legal department’s capabilities.  The City Attorney wishes to pursue more in-house litigation and reduce expenditures on outside counsel.  Funds will need to be transferred from general contingency account no. 001-0203-519-0-5999 to the City Attorney’s budget to fund line items for salaries, wages, FICA taxes, and retirement.
