Mayor Christy presented his Annual Budget to the Council, with the
following message:
GENERAL REVENUE
The total requests from the various Departments , for the Budget.
fiscal year 1974-1975 totalled three million, three thousand, five
hundred ten dollars and thirty-four cents ($3,003,510.34) .
The anticipated income for the fiscal year totals two million, 1,
seven huhdred thirteen thousand, one hundred dollars ($2,713,100.00 :
IThe total amount of estimated income surplus, inclilding investments !'
( as of November 1, 1974, totals one million, one hundred and
twenty-eight thousand, eight hundred fifty-two dollars
($1,128 852.00) .
Ali sources of estimated income and estimated surplus ,
including investments to the General Revenue Fund as of November I, :
1974, total three million, eight hundred forty-one thousand, nine
1hundred fifty-two dollars ($3,841,952.00) .
249.
Council Meeting,
By transfer, reduction and striking out of requests, the total
Budget, as presented, from the General Revenue Furd totals two
million, seven hundred ninety-six thousand two hundred forty-six
dollars and twenty-five cents ($2,796,246.L5) .
I made no changes in the salary requests for two reasons -
First, I am a firm believer in paying adequate salaries . It is
difficult for me to feel that any of our loyal city employees are
adequately paid.
Budget. Second, I know from previous Budgets that the Finance
Committee goes into salary requests very thoroughly. There is no
reason for both the Finance Committee and the Mayor to check them.
Remember that in the offing is the request of the Corps of
Engineers to correct Wear's Creek in the area outside the Urban
Renewal. The City must be in a financial position to carry out the
project.
In conclusion, this is the last Budget I, as Mayor, will
present to the Council. There is a feeling of pride that working
together we have been able to make such remarkable improvement in
our City and still be in a stable and sound financial position.
I thank you, Isl John G. Christy, Mayor
Adjournment. Councilman Hager moved that the Council adjourn, under the rules.
