2-8-110 Term of office.
   All items of personal property purchased by an alderman from his or her aldermanic contingency expense allowance are the property of the City of Chicago and are to be returned to the City of Chicago when no longer used by an alderman or an alderman’s staff in connection with the performance of the alderman’s official duties. In the event of a vacancy or change in the office of an alderman, any personal property purchased with City funds in the possession of the vacating alderman shall transfer to the alderman’s successor. If the successor alderman determines that use of any such personal property is no longer necessary, then such personal property shall be transferred to the City Council Committee on Committees and Rules, and if not wanted by any other alderman, then to the Department of Fleet and Facility Management for treatment as surplus or salvage property.
   If, on the one hundred and twentieth day after the end of the prior calendar year, any unexpended funds remain in an alderman’s aldermanic contingency account, such unexpended funds shall be returned as property of the City of Chicago and shall be remitted to the City’s Comptroller by the alderman within 10 days thereafter.
