ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 44-15-05 of the Finance Officer City of Eugene DELEGATING PAYMENT AUTHORITY TO DEPARTMENT PERSONNEL AND REPEALING ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 44-15-02. The Finance Officer of the City of Eugene rinds that: A. Under provisions of the Eugene Charter of 2002 the City Manager is authorized to make all purchases, act as business agent for the Council, and to perform such other duties as the Council directs. In addition, Section 2.525 of the Eugene Code, 1971 requires that checks and electronic or other types of payments or transfers shall be signed or authorized by the City Manager or the City Manager's designee. B. Under the same provision of the Eugene Code, 1971, the Finance Officer is given authority to issue checks and cause payments to be made to pay city bills and claims, including salaries of city officers and employees. C. Pursuant to that authority, the City Manager issued Administrative Order No. 21- 05-01 on February 22, 2005 establishing policies and procedures for payment of City bills and claims and delegated authority to authorize payments in the form of checks or electronic or other types of payments or transfers to me, subject to the requirements and limitation contained in Administrative Order No. 21-05-01. The Order also specifically authorized me to sub -delegate payment authority to City department personnel. D. On June 10, 2015 I issued Administrative Order No. 44-15-02 sub -delegating authority to make electronic or other types of payments or transfers to department personnel as designated therein. Changes in personnel now require that the delegations in that administrative order be changed, and Administrative Order 44-15-02 be repealed. Based on the above findings, the Finance Officer of the City of Eugene orders that: 1. Administrative Order No. 44-15-02 is repealed, as of the effective date of this Order. 2. The following individuals are delegated the authority to authorize payments in the form of checks and electronic or other types of payments or transfers of the type, purpose, and up to the amounts indicated opposite each (excluding checks written from one City bank account for payment to another.
