Re: Budget Amendment for Legal Services and Personnel Costs
The budget for legal services was increased to $150,000 for the 2020-2021 budget. Year to date legal
expenses are $47,623, leaving a budget balance of $102,377. With an attorney now on staff, the
expectation is that the cost of outside legal counsel will drop significantly. The budget for Legal
Expenses should be reduced $17,950 to offset the increase in the Administration Department described
below. This will leave $84,427 in the budget for legal services.
Changes to positions in the Administration Department [(1) the addition of the City Attorney position
and (2) the change of the "Assistant to the City Manager" to "Assistant City Manager" position] will
require a budget amendment to fund these positions. Taking into consideration the savings realized
from unfilled positions in Administration, personnel expenses should be increased $17,950.
The 2020-21 Annual Budget, therefore, should be amended to decrease expenditures in the Mayor and
Council Department by $17,950 and increase expenditures in the Administration Department by
$17,950. The net effect is a $0 change to the budget.

positions had been funded for all of 2020-2021, total personnel expenses for the City would have
increased 4%.
