The largest line was $61,909.20 requested in the Veteran Court reimbursable fund for payroll items tied to a program coordinator; the request lists specific payroll-line amounts (FICA $4,353.96; PERF $8,081.84; coordinator salary $46,914.98, among others).
Council member Denise Konkle moved the motions for the Veterans Court appropriations; Sam Sarkisian seconded. The minutes record unanimous approval for the coordinator funding ($61,909.20), a $9,982.50 professional-services request from the Alternative Dispute Resolution Fund, and smaller appropriations from the Veterans Court user fees and donations funds.
