RESOLUTION AND APPLICA-
TION FOR APPROVAL TO LEVY

Whereas, The revenue in certain
funds of the municipality set out in
the within application is inadequate
to meet the actual and necessary
expenses which must be paid from
said funds and any extraordinary
or unforeseen expense which may
arise during the ensuing year; and
Whereas, The inadequacy of the
revenue referred to is deemed to
constitute an emergency which re-
quires the levy of an emergency
tax; therefore
Be It Resolved by the City Coun-
cil of the City of Dubuque, Dubuque
County, Iowa, that the State Comp•
troller be and he is hereby peti-
tioned for approval to levy au
emergency tax for the year 1947 in
the sum of Twenty-seven Thousand
Eight Hundred Forty-seven Dollars
($27,847.00, not exceeding one mill),
said tax to be used as set out below.
The Consolidated Fund is to be
benefited by the transfer of
$27,847.00 from the Emergency
Fund. This is necessary because of
the greatly increased costs of sal-
aries, wages and supplies already in
effect which may further be in-
creased by any extraordinary or un-
forseen circumstances which may
arise during the year 1948.49,
Passed, adopted and approved

procedure followed in the recent
action of the City Council of iu•
creasing the salary of the City
Manager from $8,952.00 to $12,000.00
per annum by way of motion was
an illegal procedure and violated
Section 1 of Chapter 419 of the
1946 Cade of Iowa wherein it fs
set out that the compensation of
any City Manager in this State
must be fixed by Ordinance, and
also pointing out that, in his opin-
ion, the item in the proposed City
Budget calling for the payment of
$2,400.00 to the City Manager out
of the Waterworks Fund as a part
of his salary violates Section 55 of
Chapter 419, Sub 12, wherein it is
set forth as the law of this State
that one of the duties of a City
Manager is the management of the
Municipal water plant and in
further reference to increasing said

Honorable Mayor and Members
of the City Council, Dubuque, Iowa
Gentlemen: With reference to the
communication of Henry J_ Cun-
ningham which was filed with the
City Council and referred to me for
invesigati~on and report, I wish to
report as follows:
Section 418.1, 1946 Cade of Iowa,
provides that the compensation of
the Manager shalt be by Ordinance
but this Chapter is entitled "CITY
MANAGER PLAN BY ORDIN-
ANCE," and does not apply to the
City of Dubuque, which is under
the City Manager Plau by popular
election.
Chapter 419 "CITY MANAGER
PLAN BY POPULAR ELECTION"
Section 419.60 provides that the
salary of the Manager shall be fix-
ed by the Council, Under this Sec-
tion the Council may fix the salary
of the Manager by motion, resolu-
tion or orainance as it desires.
Section 419.55, Sub 12, provides
that the Manager shalt manage atl
municipal water plants. The money
received by the water works is
paid into the City Treasury,
Section 419.60 provides that the
salary of the Manager '° " ~ a shall
be paid monthly from the Treasury
of the City. The salary ~of the man•
alter is paid from the Treasury of
the City,
It is provided in:
"2414 tax limited, No greater
tax than that so entered upon
the record shall be levied or
collected for the municipality
proposing such tax for the pur-
pose or purposes indicated;
and thereafter no greater ex-
penditure of public money shall
be made for any specific pur-
pose than the atnouut esti•
mated and appropriated there-
for, except as provided in sec-
tions 24.6, 24.15 and subsection
4 of section 343.11."
The Attorney Gsueral has ruled
on the question of an increase of
salary during a fiscal year and has
stated in an opinion dated August
14 as follows:
"I am of the opinion that Sec-
tion 24.14, Code of 1946 quoted
by the City Solicitor is control-
ling, However, if the budget of
July, 1946, aggregated the ad-
ministration expenses in a
lump sum; i.e., if it did not
specify the salary of the City
manager in a specified amount,
_-~
?46 Special Session, ~u,rust ~~th, 1947
then his salary could be in•
creased and paid out of the
hemp sum appropriated within
the limits thereof. But if the
budget specified the manager's
salal'y in a specific amount, it
could not be increased during
the year of its operation unless
the Comptroller would permit
an amendment of the budget co
include this increase."
After consultation with the
State Comptroller, I submit for your
consideration an Ordinance which
has been prepared in 'accordance
with the Comptroller's suggestions,
Yours truly,
