Engagement (ONSE)
The Office of Neighborhood Safety and Engagement (ONSE) is requesting a budget
reprogramming of $950,000.00 in Local Funds budget authority within the non-personnel Services.
Why are the funds needed?
The funds are needed to reprogram funding from Professional Service Fees & Contracts to Grants and

No.
How will the funds be reprogrammed?
