BUDGET HEARING
August 30, 1983
The first Public Hearing on the proposed 1983-84 Budgets was
held Tuesday, August 30, 1983, at 5:05 P.M. in the village hall.
Present: Mrs. Antiles and Messrs. Laikin, Printup, Sherman and
Taplin
Also present were Fred W. Maley, Village Manager, and Mary T.
Wetterer, Village Clerk.
The Council reviewed the proposed budgets. Mr. Maley explained
that the budgets reflected an 8% salary increase for police officers and
5% for the balance of the employees. Also included was a new item for $18,000
to complete storm sewer repairs in the residential district. He said he
had considered the tax levy at the same rate of 3.50 mills as last year
as suggested by council. Due to the fact the village does not have any
service charges and fear of depletion of General Fund reserves, he is
recommending the 3.65 mills. The council and those present discussed
the village's salary structure. The Mayor appointed a committee of Fred
Maley, Sol Taplin, Gerry Gutenstein, and ateve Bobby to review starting
August 30, 1983
August 30, 1983
salaries for new hires. Also discussed were items that constituted the
Tourism Budget and the need for promotional advertising. It was
suggested that after the Water Department's operation for the present
fiscal year is audited, consideration could be given to lowering rates,
provided the present rates from Dade County remain constant. Mr.Sherman
announced that in all areas of major crime, Bal Harbour has the lowest
rate per capita and we pass on this information with pride. Mr. Taplin
said that we have one of the best run cities and one of the lowest tax
rates in Dade County. We will conserve where we can and are not un-
happy with the way things are being run. It was moved by Mr. Taplin,
seconded by Mr. Printup and voted that the proposed budget be adopted
on first reading and the tentative tax rate of 3.65 mills be levied
against the 1983 tax roll.
The second hearing on the Budget was set for September 13, 1983 at
5:05 P.M. in the Village Hall.
On motion of Mrs. Antiles, seconded by Mr. Laikin and voted the
meeting was adjourned at 6:35 P.M.
