SECTION 3.12. ANNUAL APPROPRIATIONS CONSIDERATIONS.

Upon receipt of the Mayor's proposed annual budget and appropriation ordinance, Council shall consider it for approval. Council may request such additional information as it deems necessary.

Until such time as Council adopts an appropriation ordinance for the current fiscal year, amounts appropriated for the preceding year shall be deemed adopted on a month-to-month basis, with all items in it prorated accordingly. However, Council may adopt a different temporary appropriation ordinance as permitted by Ohio law, and may adopt supplemental appropriation ordinances as it determines necessary.

No later than February 28 of each year, Council shall adopt an annual appropriation ordinance.

(Amended 11-4-14.)
