Section 12. (a) This Resolution is a resolution of precedent and all other resolutions in conflict with
it are held null and void insofar as they pertain to these appropriations; however, no provision
contained in this Resolution shall be construed to violate the Anti -Deficiency Act, as set forth in
Sections 18-500 through Sections 18-503 of the Code of the City of Miami, Florida, as amended ("City
Code"). The appropriations are the anticipated expenditure requirements for the City, but are not

and withhold any of these appropriated funds from encumbrance or expenditure should such action
appear advantageous to the economic and efficient operation of the City. The City Manager is also
authorized to transfer any excess unrestricted moneys from other funds to the General Fund provided

the appropriation, which are legally available at the time of such transfer, and whose expenditure is not
limited to use for any other specified purpose.
(b) The City Manager is further authorized (1) to adjust, amend, and appropriate for
the Operating Budget, the Adopted Capital Plan, the Five -Year Financial Plan, and the Strategic Plan,

Commission. Any permanent change regarding same shall require City Commission approval.
Section 14. The City Manager is authorized to administer the executive pay plan and benefit
package, and to disburse the funds appropriated herein for said purpose in a manner he deems
appropriate. The City Manager is also authorized to administer and disburse the City Commission
benefit package. With the exception of those positions in which the salary is established by City
Commission action, the City Manager is further authorized to establish the salaries of those employees
in executive and staff positions in accordance with the executive and staff pay plan. These employees
may receive any salary increases given in Section 15.
Section 15. The City Manager is authorized to disburse any funds that may be designated by the
City Commission as cost -of -living or other pay adjustments to Civil Service, executive and staff
employees as may be approved by the City Manager.
Section 16. Nothing contained in this Resolution shall be construed as to prohibit or prevent the
City Manager, the administrative head of the City of Miami, who is responsible for the efficient
administration of all Departments, from exercising the power granted to and imposed upon him/her in
the City Charter to fix, adjust, raise, or lower salaries, and to create, abolish, fill or hold vacant,
temporary or permanent positions whenever it has been determined by the City Manager to be in the

which the appropriation for the herein fiscal year has proved insufficient.
(2) The transfer of funds between the detailed accounts comprising any separate
amount appropriated by the above sections hereof is approved and authorized when such transfer of
funds is made at the request of the City Manager and when such transfer is to be made between the
detailed accounts appropriated to the same office, department, or division.
(b)(1) To effect salary adjustments, the City Manager is further authorized to make
departmental and other transfers from any reserve accounts established in the General Fund, and is
authorized to approve transfers for any unforeseen requirements of all appropriated funds as may be
required so long as such transfer is consistent with the provisions contained in Chapter 18, Article IX
