Explanation
This ordinance authorizes the appropriation and expenditure of $5,000.00 from the Jobs Growth Fund for the Municipal Clerk’s Office Training Program through Citywide Training and Development. The mission of the Citywide Training & Development Division for the City of Columbus is to promote, support and increase peak performance by providing City of Columbus employees and Enterprise customers training and development opportunities which enable them to reach personal, professional and organizational excellence. The Municipal Clerk’s Office is a creation of the General Assembly rather than the City, and thus employees of that office are not City employees. Accordingly, it is necessary to treat Municipal Clerk’s Office employees as Enterprise customers for purposes of providing training to them through Citywide Training & Development. Since the City provides funding to the Municipal Clerk pursuant to state statute, this ordinance provides the funding necessary for that training.
Council deems this project an appropriate use of $5,000.00 in monies from the Jobs Growth Fund.
