Summary
After last year's budget drama — including a Sunday meeting — a bill would set a hard December 20 deadline for council to pass the budget so the mayor has time to act and council has time to override a veto. It morphed from a ballot referendum into a code amendment and got held a week after Council Member Gross objected to the changed language.

Impact analysis
No direct cost, but a failure to pass a budget on time could leave the city unable to spend at the start of the year.
Anyone who depends on city services continuing smoothly into the new year.
