A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE OPERATING BUDGET
FOR FISCAL YEARS 2021-2023 TO CARRYOVER AND
ADJUST VARIOUS CAPITAL PROJECTS, ACTIVITIES, AND
REVENUES; AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO
IMPLEMENT THIS RESOLUTION
THE CITY COUNCIL RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The City Council finds and declares as follows:
A. On June 14, 2021, the City Council adopted the 2021-2023 Operating Budget (Resolution No. 21-36); and
B. Due to uncompleted multi-year capital projects and certain subsequent activities and developments, budget amendments are necessary for fiscal years 2021-2023.
SECTION 2. The City Council approves the budget amendments for fiscal years 2021-2023 attached as Exhibit “A,” and incorporated by reference.
SECTION 3. The City Manager, or designee, is authorized to implement this Resolution. As part of that implementation, the City Manager is authorized to implement an employee appreciation program that, among other things, provides workplace incentives consistent with this Resolution including, without limitation, certificates of recognition; gift cards; and other indicia of appreciation. Such a program is in the public interest to attract and retain high quality employees which results in better public service. The expense of associated with such a public purpose is nominal as compared to the costs of high staff turn-over, loss of institutional knowledge, and reduction in customer service. The findings are consistent with Article IV, Section 17; Article XI, Section 10; and Article XVI, Section 6 of the California Constitution and California law.
SECTION 4. PLANNING AGENCY. Pursuant to Bellflower Municipal Code (“BMC”) § 2.32.050(F), the City Council will act as the Bellflower Planning Agency for purposes of this Resolution. In accordance with Government Code § 65401, the Bellflower Public Works Department prepared and submitted a capital improvement plan (“CIP”) to the Planning Agency. Government Code § 65103(c) requires the Planning Agency to annually review the City’s CIP to determine whether the CIP is consistent with the Bellflower General Plan. The City Council finds that the CIP is consistent with the Bellflower General Plan.
SECTION 5. REAPPROPRIATION. The City Manager, or designee, is authorized to reappropriate any unused budget, including related revenues and transfers, for capital projects, special projects, grant programs, and contractual obligations at the close of a fiscal year to a subsequent fiscal year for the Operating Budget and CIP. - 3 -

Any such amended part will remain in full force and effect for sustaining action or prosecuting violations occurring before the effective date of this Resolution.
