Smith City Clerk City of Yakima Re. Ordinance No. 64 appropriating $10,000 to Cemetery Fund Dear Sir:. Ordinance No. 64, passed as an emergency measure by the City Council on December 30, 1959, appropriated the sum of $10,000 from the unappropriated moneys of the City of Yakima to the Cemetery Fund. Since the ordinance did not specify which fund the $10,000 should • be taken from, you have requested my opinion from the same. It most certainly was the intent of the City Council to appropriate this money from the unappropriated moneys in the Current Expense Fund. This is the only fund from which these moneys could be appropriated. It is, therefore, my opinion that this sum may be properly appropriated from the Current Expense Fund. • I trust that this furnishes you the desired infor- mation. 40 , 0 00trul yo ,00 10111" ,4;gw AN .0'IY ARNTSON City Attorney AA:mc cc: City Manager City Treasurer General Accounts Supervisor II/
