e e e Page 2 City Council Minutes November 5. 1987 COUNCILMEMBER TRALLE MOVED TO NOT CHANGE THE LAND USE MAP TO REFLECT THE RECENT ZONING AMENDMENT FOR MR. BARRETT BASED ON THE COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE PLANNING COMMI SSION. COUNCILMEMBER HOLMGREN SECONDED THE MOTION. THE MOTION PASSED 5-0. 3. Consideration of Proposed 1988 City Budget Mayor Gunkel stated that the staff has prepared a balanced budget for 1988. The Mayor further reviewed the three revenue options discussed by the Council at its September 29. 1987. meeting and how these different revenue options affected various expenditure proposals. The Finance Director and City Administrator then briefly reviewed the changes from the September 29. 1987. budget proposal discussion that allowed the staff to present a balanced budget at this time. Total expenditures and revenues are projected in the amount of $1.742.550. This reflects an approximately 19% increase over the adopted 1987 City budget. REVENUES...At the 9/29/87 City Council meeting. revenue option #2 was portrayed as being the most realistic option for the Council to evaluate. Changes from this $1.667.400 revenue projection included: Adding $10.000 as a juvenile officer State grant; adding $1.500 under administrative project fees; adding $1.000 under plan check fees; deleting $5.350 under the school liaison program; adding $1.000 to fire calls and contracts; adding $1.000 to interest; adding $17.000 to contributions/Municipal Utilities; adding $1.000 under refunds and reimbursements; deleting $10.000 from liquor transfers; adding $50.000 from liquor store reserves; adding $1,000 from sewer transfer; The increase from revenue option #2 was $75.150. EXPENDITURES...From the 9/29/87 expenditure proposal. the City had to cut $21.750. The main reason the amount of cuts was so low was because of the decision to add $50.000 from the liquor store cash reserves to the revenue section of the budget. It was noted by the Administrator that the use of non-reoccurring revenues to balance the General Fund City Budget is not a practice that should be continued in future years. It is being proposed to be done in 1988 as revenues. and especially revenues from the Municipal Utilities. are anticipated to increase in future years. The reductions from the 9/29/87 expenditure proposal are as follows: $500 from the Mayor and Council; $4.000 from economic development; $1.000 from building and zoning; $1.000 from data processing; $1.000 from planning; $1.000 from engineering; $3.500 from government buildings; $3.000 from police;
