MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />NOVEMBER 30, 1993 <br />LaValle again indicated that the Plan before the <br />Council was not cast in stone. <br />The Parks Director felt that the process the staff went <br />through to develop the plan was about as good a process <br />as could be done. All departments oame away equally <br />dissatisfied, and there was give and take between the <br />departments. The Director felt the Plan was an <br />excellent starting point. <br />The next topic discussed is the allocation for the 10~ <br />Gambling Fund. The Administrator pointed out that the <br />10% Capital Improvement Listing was prioritized by that <br />committee, however, not all members were available for <br />the meeting. Of the top 6 items on the list, 4 fit <br />into the funding program.

Morelan felt that the 10% <br />monies should be used for one-time items that the City <br />would not have otherwise. <br />Scalze felt that if an expenditure is justified, it <br />should be on the Capital Improvement Plan, and if not, <br />then the City should not buy it.
