Explanation
Background: Ordinance No 0495-2008, passed May 12, 2008, authorizing the City Attorney to acquire certain property rights, and to expend monies in connection with the Skyline Drive Stormwater system Improvements Project. The original amount of funding made available for this project was done so with the understanding that additional monies may be needed at a later date. Additional money has been transferred within the Storm B.A.B.s Fund. It is now necessary to establish a separate Auditor's Certificate to expend the aforementioned monies for payment of acquisition costs in connection with the Skyline Drive Stormwater System Improvements Project.
Fiscal Impact: The Department of Public Utilities, Division of Sewerage and Drainage, has determined that funding for this project will be from the Storm B.A.B.s Fund. This legislation includes a transfer of funds within the Storm B.A.B.s Fund to allow sufficient cash and authority in the proper account for this project.
Emergency Justification: Emergency action is requested to allow the acquisition of the parcels necessary for the aforementioned project to proceed without delay thereby allowing this project to move forward.
