GARD TO BUDGET CONTROL"'
WHEREAS , the purpose of this resolution is to insure re-

and intelligent action must be preceded by and based upon fiscal
data and information, and upon an understanding and appreciation
of the impact of such action upon the budget . It is recognized
that an integrated and orderly budgetary process requires a
budget in balance and that any action of the City Council that
shall or may disturb or affect such balance must be preceded
by thorough study and analysis . Where unbudgeted expenditures
are authorized by the City Council, it is and shall be the
policy of the city that adequate provision must first be made
for the funding of such proposals through the budgetary process
to the end that the budget be and remain in balance. It is a
policy of the City of Huntington Beach that the Council shall
not create a deficit in the city's budget by any action of the
Council. This statement constitutes the official policy of the
City of Huntington Beach.
