(C) (1) The Mayor of the city shall appoint an Administrator annually no later than June 30th to serve as the Administrator for the city’s fiscal year following such appointment or within 30 days of a vacancy that might arise during any fiscal year. The foregoing not withstanding, an incumbent Administrator shall serve until their successor has been appointed and qualified. If, in the event of a vacancy, the Mayor fails to appoint a replacement Administrator within the first 30 days following the effective date of that vacancy, then the Board of Aldermen shall have the power to fill the vacancy provided that the Board does so:
(a) Within 30 days from the date upon which the power to make the appointment vested in the Board; or
(b) Prior to May 31st if the power to make the appointment vests in the Board on or after May 1st.
(2) Should the Board fail to make the appointment during any 30 day period it has to do so, or prior to May 31st if the power to make the appointment vests in the Board on or after May 1st, then the power of appointment shall revert to the Mayor. Thereafter, throughout the remainder of the then current fiscal year, the power to make the appointment shall alternate between the Mayor and the Board, at 30 day intervals, until an appointment is made or until June 1st at which point in time the power to make the appointment shall vest in the Mayor.
(D) The Mayor shall annually, prior to the adoption of the city’s budget for the then next fiscal year and after consultation with the Administrator and all relevant city department heads, establish a Good Jobs Administration Budget for the then next fiscal year and the Mayor shall include a line item in his annual budget submission to the Board of Aldermen sufficient to fund the Good Jobs Administration Budget. If, during the fiscal year in which the Mayor submits a given Good Jobs Administration Budget as part of his budget submission, the city has received as liquidated damages, pursuant to its contracts for covered projects, an amount greater than or equal to the Good Jobs Administration Budget as then submitted by the Mayor, the city shall be required to fund the Good Jobs Administration Budget as submitted by the Mayor and approved by the Board of Aldermen. To the extent possible, the cost required to oversee the implementation and enforcement of this subchapter for each project shall be funded and paid for through each project.
