Fire <br /> · <br /> <br /> · <br />Parks <br /> · <br /> <br /> · <br /> <br /> Reduction is based on some of the savings for not hiring the full allotment of part- <br /> time Firefighters and the Jackson Avenue station doors being repaired rather than <br /> replaced (saves $4,000). Additionally, there is a minor reduction in training and <br /> conferences expenditures <br />Building/Zoning <br /> · Conferences-no out-of-state conferences <br />Streets <br /> · $10,000 reduction in contractual services for overlay and sealcoatmg program <br /> · $2,200 reduction in the telephone line item (no telephone pagers) <br /> · $4,000 reduction in equipment rental (not renting the roller) <br />Snow Removal <br /> $7,000 reduction in contractual services for snow removal activities <br /> <br /> Saving $1,000 by not doing the fish stocking program <br /> Saving $500 by not having a telephone in the warming house (as no warming house <br /> will be used in Lion's Park next winter) <br /> · Saving $5,500 in bathroom rentals (this is somewhat based on a high original <br /> estimate) <br />Recreation <br /> · Advertising reduction <br />Senior Citizen <br /> · No national conference <br />Energy City <br /> · Less conferences/schools and publishing expenditures <br /> <br />CAPITAL OUTLAY <br /> Police <br /> · $37,400 moving this expenditure to equipment reserves <br /> <br />There should be some additional savings which are not listed in Administration for personal services <br />now that the City Clerk has resigned and we are going through the hiring process. However, <br />offsetting some of the Police reductions in personal services will be a severance pay expenditure for <br />the retired Chief of Police. <br /> <br />Some of the proposed changes are "fluid" and some minor changes may need to be made per <br />department head discretion. For example, if we need to spend a little more money on field chalk or <br />portable bathrooms, we will incur these expenses if appropriate. <br /> <br />It also should be noted that we may get some additional revenue from the school for the liaison <br />program as only 6 months of revenue is in the adopted 03 budget. As far as other revenues are <br />concerned, the growth related revenues are slightly above the 03 budget projection as the building <br />department is very busy in terms of single-family and townhome construction permits. <br /> <br />S:\COUNCII.\Pat\2003\EXPLANATION OF 2003 BUDGET AMENDMENTS.doc <br /> <br /> <br />
