Councilmember Karen White, Chair of the Personnel and Finance Committee, reported that they met this afternoon and send this bill forward with a favorable recommendation. Dan Parker, City Controller with offices located on the 12'h floor of the County -City Building, South Bend, IN, served as the presenter for this bill. Mr. Parker stated, Bill No. 58-19 is the additional appropriation for our Enterprise Funds. There was one (1) change from the original bill that went through first (1 s`) reading and it is in the Building Department, the Consolidated Building Fund. So, if you remember back to Bill No. 56-19, there was a budget transfer to help cover personnel costs of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) into the Building Department to cover personnel costs. This is the other half of that. So, the overage was roughly thirty-five to forty thousand dollars ($35,000 - $40,000), and partial budget transfer, partial additional appropriations. The rest of this is broken into the same categories, unanticipated expenses supported by new revenue, and administrative items. I'm happy to answer any questions. Councilmember John Voorde opened the floor to questions from Council Members. There were none. This being the time heretofore set for the Public Hearing on the above bill, proponents and opponents were given an opportunity to be heard. There were none.
