BACKGROUND

In December 2007, during its deliberations on the 2008 Budget, Ottawa City Council approved a motion calling on the Long Range Financial Plan (LRFP) to conduct operational budget reviews for administrative services.

At its 9 January 2008 meeting, Council considered and approved a subsequent motion, which amended the schedule for the LRFP’s review of the various branches.

DISCUSSION

In order to assist the LRFP in its work, Financial Services staff has provided updated budget pages for the various branches being reviewed. These pages have been revised to reflect any changes approved by Council during its budget deliberations.

The budget pages for the Elected Officials are attached to this report and are numbered sequentially, however they also include the reference page to the 2008 Draft Budget document in case members of Council have made notes in their budget books and want to refer to them.

CONSULTATION

This item will be advertised in the local dailies as part of the Public Meeting Advertisement on Friday preceding the Long Range Financial Plan Sub-Committee Meeting.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS

Any changes approved by Council will amend the City’s 2008 Operating Budget.
