Official text
To the Honorable City Council:
The Mayor respectfully requests that this Council approve the use of funds in the Immigrant Advancement Professional and Technical Services Account (Org. 0154652, Object 530000) to pay a FY26 invoice totaling $19.76 to Language Line for on-demand phone interpretation services. The invoice was not paid within the fiscal year because prior to city-wide language access contracts, some city departments had arranged their own phone interpretation services through Language Line. We have phased out of using Language Line, but there was a stray call made using the Language Line in May 2026. The Language Access team did not consider that Language Line could be used when finalizing FY26 carryover requests. We need to pay for one phone call that was made in the amount of $19.76. All Language Line accounts have now been closed since we are no longer using those services.
The invoice is attached.
Appropriate staff will be available to answer any questions you may have. Thank you for your consideration of this matter.
Respectfully Submitted,
Jake Wilson, Mayor
