WHEREAS, there are numerous disputes between the County Executive and the Legislature regarding the validity of Ordinance 5062, relating to its construction and interpretation, and multiple related issues; and,

 

WHEREAS, the Chief Administrative Officer has recommended the adoption of this Resolution, without waiving any previous position taken in reliance upon the memorandum of the County Counselor dated December 22, 2017, regarding Ordinance 5062, and without waiving any position taken in reliance upon other legal memorandums provided by the Office of the County Counselor; and,

 

WHEREAS, the Legislature recognizes that funds identified as Reserve Funds in the adopted 2018 budget within the General Fund are required to be designated for use for lease payments; and,
