The City Manager is authorized to administer the Battle Creek Budget in accordance with the following budget policy:
BATTLE CREEK BUDGET - CITY COMMISSION POLICY
The Battle Creek Budget incorporates citizen input and community-wide strategic planning. In addition, the principles of Priority Based Budgeting will guide future budgets in examining priority programs and services against available revenue. The City administration is challenged to improve operating efficiency and responsiveness, and provide services at acceptable levels in exchange for greater authority and flexibility.
Specific components of the Battle Creek Budget are as follows:
The City Manager has prepared this recommended annual budget that considers current service levels, input from the community-wide strategic planning process, the City Commision goal setting process and priorities that reflect the changing needs of the community.
The City Manager is accountable and responsible for providing services at acceptable levels within the total net appropriation. ("Net appropriation" is defined as expenditures minus related assigned revenue budget). Any significant change in service levels requires the approval of the City Commission.
All appropriations are made on a fund basis, with details by activity for the General Fund appropriation.
The City Manager is authorized to assign and transfer budgets within the fund that do not increase total fund net appropriations.
The City Manager is authorized to approve staffing reclassifications and staffing levels that do not increase net appropriations.
The City Manager is authorized to transfer approved program appropriations and encumbrance balances resulting from the City's year-end audit, and which reflect a carry forward between fiscal periods.
The City Manager may establish the necessary appropriation budget by increasing the total fund appropriation for donations, grants received, additional confiscated monies, insurance proceeds, and miscellaneous cash which are received for various purposes.
Based on the most recent audited financial information, any amount of General Fund undesignated, unreserved fund balance in excess of fifteen percent of total General Fund revenues may be transferred to the General Capital Improvement Fund.
FOOTNOTE: The City Manager may delegate authority for certain administrative functions as provided in Chapter 5 of the City Charter.
I, Victoria Houser, City Clerk of the City of Battle Creek, hereby certify the above and foregoing is a true and correct copy of a Resolution adopted by the Battle Creek City Commission at a Regular meeting held on June 20, 2017.
Victoria Houser
