DISPOSITION OF The City Manager stated there was one item before the
LAVATORIES discussion of the proposed budget regarding disposing
of the six (6) old lavatories in the restrooms. After
Council discussion, it was moved by Councilperson Byork,
seconded by Councilperson Wells and carried, to direct

PROPOSED BUDGET The City Manager explained the proposed budget is a hold-
the-line budget. Thanked staff for keeping budget in
line accordingly. Increases included only those item
the City has no control over such as insurance, the
Sheriff's contract, water increases, etc. The fate of
the revenue sharing funds is still pending and probably
won't be known until October when the Federal Government
adopts the budget.
PROPOSALS FOR Assistant to the City Manager Fraser explained the anti-
LOSS OF REVENUE cipation of the eventual loss of revenue sharing, several
SHARING FUNDS things are being proposed:
1. Adopting a budget which reflects virtually no
growth. The proposed budget was developed in
this manner, and thanked staff for following
budgetary guidelines. The operating budget
shows an 8o increase which most of it is attri-
butable to one of the following: new programs
(trolley bus system), escalating costs of
liability insurance, increasing cost of
contract law enforcement services, and the cost
of purchase water from the Metropolitan Water
District.
2. Implementing the major recommendations for fee
increases which are expected to be contained in
the Management Services Institute report due
in November.
3. Continue the process of systematically reviewing
services to determine if contracting out is a
cost saving alternative.
Assistant to City Manager Fraser discussed and explained
analysis of expenditures changes, analysis revenue
changes and sales tax trends. Each department head's
budget was then discussed. After further Council dis-
cussion, Mayor Pro-Tem Thompson thanked staff for the
hold-the-line budget. Councilperson Morris congratulated
staff for a fine job .
There was no further business, and it was moved by Council-
person Morris, seconded by Councilperson Byork, and carried,
to adjourn to June 17, 1986.
