This increase was due <br />primarily to salary increases and general operating increases in supplies and services. <br />Public Safety expenditures increased by $96,075 from 1995 to 1996. This increase is attributable to salary increases <br />for public safety personnel, and general operating increases in supplies and services. <br />The increase of $42,757 under Highways and Streets from 1995 to 1996 was due primarily to a snowy winter which <br />caused a need for more maintenance materials and salary expense due to additional plowing. <br />Culture and Recreation increased $40,915 which can be attributed to salary increases, general operating increases, <br />and increased maintenance costs for the ever expanding parks and open spaces. <br />g~ <br />
