The use of public funds for the payment of membership dues and related fees and charges to various professional organizations and associations for City officials, officers and employees is hereby authorized in cases where participation in such organizations and associations by such City officials, officers and employees is deemed to be beneficial primarily to the City. In all cases not involving members of the Health Department, the Park and Recreation Department, and Council, the Clerk of Council, the Mayor, and the Civil Service Commission, the City Manager shall be the official who shall determine whether the City shall be the primary beneficiary of a proposed expenditure herein above described. The Manager's approval of a purchase order requesting a payment for such expenditure shall be conclusively presumed to mean that the Manager has examined the proposed expenditure and found it to be beneficial primarily to the City. The Board of Health and Park and Recreation Board shall make similar determinations for the members of their respective departments by causing the same to be spread upon their minutes. Council shall make such determinations by majority vote in cases involving the Civil Service Com-mission, members of Council, the Mayor, and the Clerk of Council. A motion of Council, properly introduced, seconded and passed shall be sufficient. No ordinance or resolution shall be required. (Ord. 1980-121. Passed 8-13-80.)
