Roll over unspent 2006-07 taxi safety funds to next fiscal year
In Plain English
The city has leftover money from the 2006-07 budget that was designated for taxi safety improvements. City policy requires council approval to carry unspent funds forward instead of returning them to the general fund. If approved, this money remains available for taxi safety projects in the new fiscal year.

Approve the roll over of unspent 06-07 funding for taxi safety

Why This Vote Matters
The council unanimously approved carrying forward leftover money from the 2006-07 budget that was originally set aside for taxi safety improvements. Without this approval, the unspent funds would have automatically returned to the city's general fund under standard policy. The rollover keeps this money available specifically for taxi safety projects in the new fiscal year. This was a routine administrative decision that allows the city to complete the safety improvements it had previously planned to fund.
