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 mandatory should efficient administration of City Departments and Boards
or altered economic conditions indicate that a curtailment in certain expenditures is necessary
or desirable for the general welfare of the City. The City Manager is specifically authorized to
create awards and to transfer funds between accounts and awards, and to 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

those are appropriated moneys which are no longer needed to implement the original purpose
of 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.
Section 13. The City Manager is authorized to make any necessary changes to adjust,
amend, and appropriate the City's Operating Budget, Five -Year Financial Plan, Strategic Plan,

uses, as necessary and applicable, for purposes set forth in this Resolution.

for in this budget either by position summary or by the organizational chart are deemed
approved by the City Commission. Any permanent change regarding same shall require City
Commission approval.
Section 15. 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
or she deems appropriate. The City Manager is also authorized to administer and disburse the

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 16.
Section 16. 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,

Section 17. Nothing contained in this Resolution shall be construed as to prohibit or
prevent the City Manager, the administrative head of the City, who is responsible for the efficient
administration of all Departments, from exercising the power granted to and imposed upon him
or her in the Charter of the City of Miami ("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 best interest of efficient and economical
administration of the City and all its Departments. The authority contained in this Section shall
also be applicable whenever the City Manager shall cause a Department to reorganize itself to
perform its services more efficiently. Such reorganization may include reduction of budgeted
positions, reclassification of positions, and alteration of the number of budgeted positions in any
given classification.
Section 18. The transfer of funds between the detailed accounts comprising any
separate amount appropriated by the above Sections hereof is approved and authorized when

shall have been made of any part of an unencumbered balance of an appropriation to or for a
purpose or object for which the appropriation for the herein fiscal year has proved insufficient.
Section 19. The transfer of funds between the detailed accounts comprising any
separate amount appropriated by the above Sections hereof is approved and authorized when

be made between the detailed accounts appropriated to the same office, department, or
division.
Section 20. 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
