8. EXPENDITURE BUDGET TRANSFER Per A.R.S. §42-17106, approve an expenditure budget transfer of $40,667 for FY 2014-15 ($40,667 annualized) from Clerk of the Superior Court (160) General Fund (100) Operating (0000) to Superior Court (800) General Fund (100) Operating (0000), representing the salary and benefits of one FTE Justice System Clerk (Court Operations Representative – Juvenile) position. The Juvenile Court’s Adoptions Unit is assuming work previously done by the Clerk of the Court. The work being assumed by the Court is related to the gathering and compilation of documents that are not filed with the Clerk but are needed for judicial review on adoption matters. This transition needs to occur because the work previously performed by the Clerk was an administrative function that both the Clerk and the Court agree belongs with the Court instead. The transition will allow for business efficiencies and improved customer service. (C-16-15-001-M-00)
