| 1 | 1. | Motion | MOTION, dated 03/18/2021, submitted by Councilmember Mann, Budget Policy Direction to City Administration for Recommended FY 2022 General Fund Operating Budget. WE MOVE that the City administration prepare a Fiscal Year 2022 Recommended General Fund Operating Budget which respects the following policy guidelines and priorities: 1. The Fiscal Year 2022 General Fund Operating Budget must be balanced. While continuing to strive to have a structurally balanced budget, the fiscal impacts of the pandemic may necessitate the use of one-time sources to balance in Fiscal Year 2022. 2. Given the projected $30.0 million gap between General Fund revenues and expenditures, federal stimulus funds should be used to offset the projected FY 2022 operating budget deficit based on the eligible uses of funds for pandemic related expenditures and/or loss of revenue.

| 1 | 9. | Motion | MOTION, submitted by Councilmember Goodin, Vice Mayor Smitherman, Councilmember Sundermann, Keating and Kearney, During the COVID-19 pandemic, Cincinnati workers have adopted remote working at an amazing pace. Many routine office activities have been replaced by video conferencing and digital access to documents. While these innovations have kept our economy moving, they also present a looming crisis for Ohio’s cities. More than 70 percent at Cincinnati’s revenue is derived from its earning tax, and a significant portion of that percentage is derived from non-City residents who formerly worked in downtown offices. Recent litigation and potential legislation have called into question our ability to tax those workers in the long term. These actions notwithstanding, many businesses may simply choose to close their offices or reduce their physical footprint in the City, thus shrinking the tax base over time. Accordingly, WE MOVE that the Administration prepare a report outlining the loss in revenue to the City per annum if, variably, 10, 20 or 30 percent of non-resident City workers woul | Adopt | |

| 1 | 12. | Motion | MOTION, submitted by Councilmember Keating, Mann, Sundermann and Kearney, Our small businesses have suffered from the negative impacts of COVID-19 at a disproportionate level. The City of Cincinnati is to receive $290 million from the American Rescue Plan, President Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion coronavirus stimulus bill. WE MOVE that the City Administration prepare a REPORT on how much money, of the $290 million from the American Rescue Plan, that the city could feasibly set aside to aid the small business community in their COVID-19 recovery efforts. This approach needs to be a two-pronged effort that not only targets specific small businesses but also takes a blanketed approach to focus on providing aid to neighborhood business districts. Therefore, WE FURTHER MOVE that the City Administration prepare a REPORT on how much money of $290 million from the American Rescue Plan, that the city could feasibly set aside to identify and aid the neighborhood business districts that have been most negatively impacted by the COVID-19 impact. WE FURTHER MOVE that the City Administration prepare a | Adopt | |
