The City’s financial operations are budgeted and accounted for in numerous funds. A fund is a separate accounting unit. Funds are approved through the appropriation ordinance adopted by City Council. Within the Ordinance, reference is made to the Funds that comprise the overall budget, of which there are three basic types plus component units as illustrated in the Operating Funds Structure chart. The following funds are appropriated, except two of the Fiduciary Funds mentioned below. A list of all of the City's funds is provided below along with links to each Department/Fund page.
