Council adopts resolution creating line items to accept House Bill 5204 disaster funds
Summary
Detroit City Council adopted Resolution 688 to create revenue and expenditure line items to accept funds from House Bill 5204 following a December windstorm; the $100,000 award will be split $50,000 to the general fund and $50,000 to the street fund.
The Detroit City Council voted to adopt Resolution 688, creating new revenue and expenditure line items to accept funds provided by House Bill 5204 after the December windstorm. The budget officer explained that the award of $100,000 would be divided evenly between the general fund and the street fund, with $50,000 recorded as revenue and $50,000 as expenditures for each fund.
"What we did is we took the $100,000 that we were awarded and split it $50/50 between the general fund and the street fund," the budget officer said while reading the resolution language and the supplemental budget summary. The resolution was moved by a council member (transcript label S1) and seconded by the presiding official (S2); the motion passed by voice vote and was recorded as carrying.
Resolution 688 creates specific line items (resource line item 10R38 and expenditure line item E1119 as described in the resolution language) so the city can legally accept and appropriate the state funds. The city cited ORS 294.471 as the statutory authority permitting a municipality to adopt a supplemental budget when unanticipated revenues become available. The public hearing on the supplemental budget produced no public testimony, and the council closed the hearing before voting to adopt the resolution.
The council announced the motion passed and proceeded to adopt the companion Resolution 689, which formalizes the supplemental budget changes for fiscal year '2526. The hearing was adjourned at 03:12 PM.
