RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
UKIAH AUTHORIZING CONTINUED MUNICIPAL WASTEWATER & WATER OPERATIONS
PENDING ADOPTION OF FISCAL YEAR 2009-2010 BUDGET
WHEREAS,
1. Traditionally, the City Council conducts hearings on its Wastewater and Water
Budget for the fiscal year in June in order to approve this portion of the Budget together with the
General Fund Budget before the beginning of the fiscal year on July 1; and
2. Due to the recent new restructuring of the Ukiah Valley Sanitation District with a
Board of Directors now in place resulting from the November 2008 elections, together with the
complexity of joint issues that need to be resolved prior to arriving at a new budget for the
2009/2010 Fiscal Year, the City cannot schedule Budget Hearings for the Wastewater and
Water Budget prior to the beginning of the fiscal year; and
3. The Budget hearings are anticipated to be scheduled in July and should result in
adoption of the 2009-2010 Wastewater and Water Fiscal Year Budget in July 2009; and
4. Pending approval of the Budget for the 2009-2010 Fiscal Year, City staff may
continue to process warrants and issue checks for the conduct of City Wastewater and Water
functions;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
City staff shall continue to process warrants in accordance with law.
2. In certifying the availability of funds to pay demands, the official submitting the
demands may rely on the financial information, consistent with the 2008/2009 adopted Budget.
3. The Finance Director may draw warrants or checks in payment of certified payroll
and other demands and certify that they comply with the proposed Budget, subject to final
ratification by the City Council after the final Budget is adopted for Fiscal Year 2009-2010. As
so certified, said warrants and checks shall be deemed to comply with Government Code
Section 37208 and may be presented to the City Council for ratification after they have been
issued.

2009/2010.
