Councilor Clark, seconded by Councilor Taylor, moved to adopt Resolution 5019 adopt- ing a Supplemental Budget; making appropriations for the City of Eugene for the Fiscal Year beginning July 1, 2010, and ending June 30, 2011. Councilor Solomon, seconded by Councilor Clark, moved to amend the motion by trans- ferring an additional $300,000 to the General Capital Fund. Councilor Solomon believed the fund was woefully unfunded and adding $300,000 to it would be a step in the right direction. Councilor Zelenka asked staff to speak to the tradeoffs created by the motion. City Manager Ruiz said that the City's strategy was to accumulate cash this year and any subtraction at this point would mean something would have to change in the budget because there would be less money to carry forward. Councilor Zelenka said in the absence of more analysis of the impact of the action, he was not prepared to support the motion. Councilor Taylor concurred with Councilor Zelenka. She suggested the council postpone action. Councilor Pryor liked the concept behind the motion and hoped staff kept the conversation in mind. However, he was not prepared to support the motion at this time. Councilor Poling also expressed appreciation for the concept behind the motion but was not prepared to support it at this time without more information about where the money would come from. Roll call vote: The amendment to the motion failed, 6:2; councilors Solomon and Clark voting yes. Roll call vote: The motion passed unanimously, 8:0. Mayor Piercy adjourned the meeting of the Eugene City Council and convened a meeting of the Eugene Urban Renewal Agency. 4.
