Full summary

This motion, introduced by Councilmember Bob Blumenfield and seconded by Councilmember Tim McOsker on May 1, 2026, transfers $100,000 from the AB1290 Fund to support additional community services in Council District 3. Specifically, it moves the money from AB1290 Fund No. 53P, Account No. 281203 (CD 3 Redevelopment Projects - Services) into the General City Purposes Fund No. 100-56, Account No. 0703 (CD 3 Community Services). The AB1290 Fund holds redevelopment successor agency dollars that councilmembers can direct toward local services and projects within their districts. The motion also authorizes the City Clerk to make any technical corrections, clarifications, or revisions to the fund transfer instructions — including changes to fund or account numbers — in order to carry out the intent of the motion. This is routine language included to prevent administrative snags from derailing the transfer. The Council adopted the motion on May 12, 2026 by a vote of 14-0-1, subject to reconsideration under Council Rule 51. The City Clerk transmitted the file to the Mayor on May 14, 2026, giving the Mayor until May 26, 2026 to act. The Council action became final on May 15, 2026, and the file is now closed. The $100,000 is directed toward community services in CD 3, though the motion does not specify which particular programs or organizations will receive the funds.
