Further Discussion: Councilmember D~Luca stated that Landfill Commission meeting minutes discuss the public education part of this KAB program and hiring a campaign coordinator for it; that cost is not included in the entry fee. Councilmember Co~stated that any further e);penditures under that program should not be authorized until there is a form&l recommendation to Council from the Landfill Commission. Mr. Graczyk noted that any additional expenditures incurred by the Landfill Commission would appropriately be taken from Fund 225, which is tipping fees collected and designated for abatement uses. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Reimann, Councilmembers Sorteberg, Cox, DeLuca and Pearson. Voting No: None. Councilmember Cox stated that he thought the General Fund Reserve Balance quoted at a previous meeting was $300,000 and not $42,000. Mr. Graczyk replied that the $300,000 represents resources available from prior years that can be expended this year or in the future; the $42,000 represents the budgeted amount for unanticipated expenditures. Councilmember Cox stated that maybe consideration should be given to fUnding the civil defense system entirely out of the General Fund Reserve rather than through a loan from the Landfill Fund in order to avoid costly bookkeeping processes to arrange a payback. Mr. Graczyk stated that the bOOkkeeping involved with a loan from the Landfill Fund is not a problem; funding the entire civil defense system in one year from the General Fund Reserve would draw down the fund balance significantly in one year which could be a problem. Council indicated their satisfaction with revisions resulting from budget reviews thus far and foresee no other changes to the budget craft. Case #2: Recommendation From Park And Recreation Commission Re~ardin~ Temporarv Warmin~ Bouse: Mr. Raatikka stated that past Council action approved leasing a temporary wa~i~g house :0= use at Ce~t=~: Pa=k i~ the 1987/88 season; the ?~=k and Recreation Comzission is reiterating their recommendation to purchase the enit as noted in Herland Otte's memo to Council dated October 27, 1987. Tne basis for that recommendation is tbat for the extra cost the unit could be moved to another site for another purpose or costs recouped by selling it if no other use is found. Mayor Rei~ann noted that the cost for floer matt~ng for the war~ing house was high and some research should have been done for used conveyor belting. Motion by Council~ecber Sorteberg and seconded by Councilmember Cox authorizing an additional $1650 for 1987 Central Park improvemen~s to allow for the purchase, rather than lease, of a temporary war~ing house u'C.it. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Reimann, Councilmembers Sorteberg, Cox, DeLuca and Pearson. Voting ~o: None. City Council/November 24, 1987 Page 7 of 16 lib
