Title

Substitution resolution reserving and appropriating up to $1,817,377 from the 2023 Common Council Contingent Fund to the 2023 Damages and Claims Fund Special Purpose Account.

 

Analysis

This resolution reserves and appropriates $1,817,377 from the 2023 Common Council Contingent Fund to the Damages and Claims Fund Special Purpose Account for the purpose of meeting financial obligations related to claims and litigation brought against the City.

 

Body

Whereas, Settlements and payment of judgments to date in 2023 exceed the 2023 appropriation for the Damages and Claims Fund Special Purpose Account (SPA); and

 

Whereas, Settlements will require $2,326,728 and the City Attorney anticipates that additional funds will be necessary to meet the City’s financial obligations imposed by pending settlements; now, therefore, be it

 

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that up to $1,817,377 from the 2023 Common Council Contingent Fund (0001-9990-C001-006300) is reserved and appropriated to the 2023 Damages & Claims Fund (0001-1490-S118-006300); and be it

 

Further Resolved, That the City Comptroller and other appropriate City officials are directed to take all actions necessary to fulfill the intent of this resolution.
