Re: Ordinance No. 10-23 – Amending the Annual Appropriations for Fiscal Year
Ending December 31, 2023 (Q1)
Summary
Ordinance 10-23 amends the annual appropriations for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 to
provide supplemental funding in certain budget accounts for the first quarter of 2023. The following
sections provide descriptions of the appropriations contained within each section of the Ordinance, and
the reason for the request. Many of the appropriations requested below are for financial housekeeping, or
re-appropriation of unused proceeds for debt financed or capital projects. At year-end, all these proceeds
were unencumbered as required by the Ohio Revised Code. These requests reflect the mechanics of re-
appropriating the funds again for use in 2023.
Section 1 requests a funding appropriation of $500,000 in the Water Construction Fund for projects
previously approved by City Council in the 2022-2026 Capital Improvements Program such as the Water
Booster Station Maintenance. The booster station project includes the replacement of existing
equipment/materials and new pipe coating at the stations. The Water Construction fund was established
in 2022 to account for the funding of construction projects with the objective of ensuring that only
appropriated funds pertaining to these projects are utilized.
Initiating Department: Department of Finance, and Public Works - Engineering (Section 1)
Section 2 requests a $38,700 funding appropriation in the Law Enforcement Trust Fund to purchase
additional public safety equipment. This fund, established by the Ohio Revised Code accounts for all cash
or cash proceeds that are a result of contraband property seizures and forfeitures of property.
Initiating Department: Police Department (Section 2)
Section 3 requests a $100,000 funding appropriation in the Safety Fund for support services in
partnership with Syntero for a Public Safety Social Services Coordinator as outlined in Ordinance 22-22.
The Public Safety Social Services Coordinator is intended to augment the agency’s sworn staff with
support by bridging available providers of social services with those members of the public who are in
need. Examples of work for this position will include:
• Developing and delivering department training regarding specialized populations.
• Developing and maintaining positive working relationships with community behavioral health
providers and other community based social services.

• Developing a provider system for individuals not connected to resources and families in crisis to
local service providers.
• Providing ongoing linkage services to referred individuals until they are actively engaged in
services or their immediate needs are met.
• Documenting referral activities and providing regular updates to facilitate the progress of cases.
The Public Safety Social Services Coordinator will assist in evaluating an individual’s need for mental
health, physical or daily living services and assist them in connecting with the appropriate community
resources and organizations who can further assist them in meeting their basic needs.
Since 2018, the Dublin Police Department has responded to over 1,000 calls for services involving
individuals in crisis. This coordinator would provide short to intermediate term case management services
and resource connectivity to reduce repeat calls for police service. Thus, allowing sworn personnel to
focus on public safety through crime prevention, reduction and deterrence efforts.
