A budget amendment is causing division among Austin City Council members. The proposal involves shifting funds from one area to another within the city's budget. The amount in question is $676,000, which is currently allocated for Austin Police Department increases.
If the amendment passes, this money would be redirected. Further details about the proposed reallocation of funds, including the specific purpose of the new allocation, are available through CBS Austin.
