Council may, at any time after the first half of the fiscal year, by a two-thirds vote of all members of Council, make transfers, within any department or other separate agency of the Municipal government, of sums of money appropriated for one corporate object or purpose to another corporate object or purpose. However, no appropriation for any object or purpose shall thereby be reduced below an amount sufficient to cover all obligations incurred or to be incurred against such appropriation. Nothing contained in this section shall deprive Council of the power to provide for and cause to be paid from the funds of the City any charge imposed by law, without the action of Council, the payment of which is ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction.
