but believers can rejoice that in Jesus there is
Park Cemetery. What a comfort it was to her
salvation. Lena knew Jesus and that God is
family and friends to hear that “Jesus never
merciful, she went for all that stuff. What she
fails” and that He has gone to prepare a place
did not go for was me talking about having
for her and also for us. Death is difficult for the
cold ones all the time. Now that she is up in
living, loved ones who grieve the separation,
heaven, she won’t need to have a cold one

SECTION 1. Subdivision O is hereby added to
Section 2.04.040 (Powers and duties) of Chapter
2.04 (City Manager) of Title 2 (Administration,
Civil Service and Personnel) to read as follows:
2.04.040 Powers and duties.
The city manager shall be the administrative
head of the city government under the direction
and control of the city council. He or she shall
be responsible for the efficient administration
of all the affairs of the city which are under his
or her control. In addition to his or her general
powers as administrative head, and not as a
limitation thereon, it shall be his or her duty and
he or she shall have the power:
* * *
O. To ensure that the general fund reserve
balance (exclusive of any amounts reserved
for capital projects) does not fall below three
months of average operating expenditures.
This floor amount shall be calculated by dividing
the budgeted total operating expenditures for
the current fiscal year by 4. If, for any reason,
the general fund reserve balance falls below
this floor (or the general fund reserve balance,
if below this floor, has a further reduction in
balance), the City Manager shall immediately
notify the City Council of this fact by placing
a discussion of the general fund reserve balance
on the agenda for the next City Council
meeting and by producing, and distributing to
each council member, a report on the reason
for the reduced reserve balance and a plan.
The City Manager shall produce a new report
to the City Council regarding the general fund
reserve balance at least once a month until
the reserve balance has been restored. Each
such report shall be agendized as a discussion
item at a meeting of the City Council unless the
City Council adopts a resolution that (i) sets a
goal for the schedule on which the reserve fund
will be replenished and (ii) explicitly suspends
this agendization and discussion requirement
until a specific date. If, following the adoption
of such a resolution (i) the reserve balance
does not meet a goal set in the resolution or
(ii) the reserve balance further decreases, the
City Manager shall immediately report such
fact to the City Council and shall no longer
be excused, by virtue of the resolution, from
agendizing a discussion of each report produced
pursuant to this subdivision.
SECTION 3. If any provision, clause, sentence
or paragraph of this Ordinance or the application
thereof to any person or circumstance shall be
held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect the
other provisions of this Ordinance which can
be given effect without the invalid provisions
or application, and to this end the provision of
this Ordinance are declared to be severable.
SECTION 4. The City Clerk shall certify to
the passage and adoption of this Ordinance
and shall cause the same to be published
once in an adjudicated newspaper in the City
of Hawthorne.

was for me to stop writing this column. She
asked her Lutheran preacher son to tell me to
stop. So, maybe it’s about time I did. I will
miss Lena. I will miss writing this stuff. I will
let you know what is going on next week.
All you 12 loyal readers need to move on,
