Title: MOTION, submitted by Councilmember Keating, WE MOVE that $20,000 of the operating budget be allocated to fund two HACKATHONS (organized by Cintrifuse and 1819). These hackathons would work as competitive events, ran by the aforementioned organizations, to find deficiencies in the city and ways to save the city money and resources. As public officials it is our responsibility to ensure Cincinnatian's tax dollars are being used as efficiently as possible, bringing in organizations that specialize in efficiency will help us achieve that mission. Corporations utilize both Cintrifuse and 1819 (both Cincinnati based) to find efficiencies within their companies and Cincinnati, as a city, should utilize them as well.
