Council shifts $2,800 from parks to legal to cover complaint-related costs
Summary
Council approved a budget amendment moving $2,800 from the parks budget to legal fees to fund work related to the receipt/forgery complaint; the amendment passed after brief debate about the source of funds.
The council voted to amend the city budget to move $2,800 from the parks account into legal fees to cover attorney time and related expenses tied to the complaint and staff responses.
The chair opened the motion and a council member moved to transfer the funds; council recorded votes indicating general support with at least one dissenting vote. The city attorney confirmed the amount was $2,800 and the transfer was to cover immediate legal costs rather than a new program.
Clerk and finance staff were tasked to amend the budget documents and reflect the transfer in the next finance report.
