Explanation

Background: There is a need to transfer and appropriate funds to provide 2013 funding for the Area Commissions. Historically the City has provided funds to the Area Commissions, who through their daily operational functions incur eligible expenses that require cash expenditures during the program year. These funds allow each Area Commission the flexibility and individuality in decision making as they fulfill their functions and responsibilities as outlined in their bylaws and Columbus City Codes. Each Area Commission will receive $2,500 in 2013.

Fiscal Impact: The legislation transfers $52,500 from the Neighborhood Initiatives Fund to the Area Commission Fund to provide monies in the proper projects for the 2013 funding of Area Commissions. This legislation also appropriates $55,000 for operating expenses of the Area Commissions.

Emergency action is requested so that payments to the Area Commissions can be made immediately, thereby avoiding interruptions in services.

Title
