November 3, 2003

The City Administrative Officer (CAO) is the chief financial advisor to the Mayor and the Council and reports directly to both. The CAO conducts studies and investigations, carries out research and makes recommendations on a wide variety of City management matters for the Mayor and Council.

The CAO assists the Mayor and Council in the preparation of the City budget, plans and directs the administration of the budget and directs the development of work programs and standards. The CAO represents the management of the City in negotiating all labor contracts.

In addition the CAO chairs and participates in many coordinating committees and performs other duties required by the Mayor and Council.

As part of our responsibilities, throughout each fiscal year (July 1 through June 30), we submit monthly reports on the City's financial status to the Mayor and City Council. We would like to inform you that you can access our monthly reports on our website.

We believe that these reports may be useful to your work and can provide you with up-to-date information on the City's financial status.

You can access our website at www.lacity.org/cao.

Once you access the website, click on the link entitled "Financial Reports" (provided above). The link currently includes our first financial status report of the fiscal year as well as our first budget reduction report, which included $47.0 million in budgetary reductions.

We will be regularly posting financial reports on our website throughout the year.
