In conformance with Charter Section 9.115, the appointing officer of each agency shall, within 30 days of the enactment of the annual budget, by letter addressed to the Mayor, the Board, and the Controller, agree that the funding provided is adequate for that agency unless otherwise specifically noted by the appointing officer.

The Director and the Clerk of the Board shall take such actions as may be necessary to amend the Annual Salary Ordinance accordingly.
