City spending: the payables lists

Every bill the council approved on its payables list ("Expense Approval Report"), 2021 to today plus one 2018 claims report, read line by line from the published lists. Pick a year bar, a payee, a fund or a department to filter. From revenue to payee: cash-flow chart.
Figures are parsed from the payables lists, Treasurer's reports, receipts, pay applications and change orders the City of Tiffin published with its council agendas. They are not official accounting records. Every number links to the page it was read from; where a document's parsed lines do not add up to its printed total (coverage below 100%), the parsed amounts are a lower bound.
Payments to private individuals (refunds, deposits, reimbursements, coaches and officials) are shown as one payee, "Individual (refund/reimbursement)", without names; reimbursements to city staff and officials (mileage, travel, training, uniforms …) are shown as "City employee (reimbursement)" with their purpose; the source page is still linked.
