MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />SEPTEMBER 9, 1996 <br />on the numbers, it did not look like this year was a <br />good year to add a full-time Parks & Recreation <br />Assistant. Morelan felt one of the reasons for the <br />need for this full-time position is to address the long <br />hours worked by the Parks & Recreation Director. If <br />additional staff cannot be added, then the situation <br />needs to be addressed in other ways. <br />The Administrator felt that with the additional <br />clerical hours budgeted for 1997, there will be an <br />opportunity to review the possibility of designating <br />clerical staff to the Parks & Recreation Department. <br />This staff could then take over responsibility for <br />answering routine calls and administrative tasks. A <br />parks and recreation computer program may also be a <br />time-savings option. Council agreed and after <br />discussion of this option, felt the Administrator, <br />working with the Director, should address these issues. <br />It was the consensus of the Council that the <br />preliminary net levy increase should be certified at <br />3.5% with the attempt to reduce that amount further at <br />upcoming budget workshops. <br />There being no further business, the workshop meeting <br />was adjourned at 8:30 P.M. <br />, ~ i~ ~; , <br />, <br />~~~~~~~t~ ,,,,~,__~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ <br />, Mic-~.
