RE: Q4 2025 Budget Transfer Ordinance
Dear President Lee,
During the past several years, it has been the practice of the City of South Bend to request
department heads,fiscal staff,and city administration to conduct an extensive review of the status
of compliance with the adopted city budget and propose necessary adjustments periodically
throughout the year. For 2025,we plan to propose adjustments during four time periods—March,
June,October and December.
I will present this bill to the Common Council at the appropriate committee and Council meetings.
It is requested that this bill be filed for 1st reading on November 24th,2025,with 2nd reading,
public hearing and 3rd reading scheduled for December 8th,2025.
Thank you for your attention to this request. If you should have any questions,please feel to contact
