Mayor & City Council <br />December 12, 1997 <br />Page 2 <br />• trend of the last few years, I feel 1998's amount is still reasonable given the <br />unpredictability in projecting future construction levels. Additional analysis of this <br />projection has been done and I can provide that information should you so desire. <br />♦ Detailed salary scales are attached. The only changes to these scales are related to the <br />part-time help in Public Works and Parks Maintenance. We increased the summer part- <br />time help scale to a level we feel is needed to attract and retain qualified summer <br />workers. We also created a new schedule for rink maintenance personnel, increasing <br />summer rates by 25¢ an hour due to odd hours we expect these people to work, the <br />conditions they work under, and the limited amount of time they provide this service <br />versus our summer help. These changes are recommended by the Public Works Director, <br />the Parks & Recreation Director, and me. <br />♦ In the 1998 Capital Improvement Fund, we added an additional $3,000 for a tractor <br />associated with hockey rink clean-up. This amount had been budgeted back in 1996, but <br />not yet expended. The carry forward of this budgeted amount was lost in the 1997 <br />budget process. This unit is necessary to replace current equipment.. <br />Should you have any comments on the budget document prior to Wednesday's meeting, please <br />let me know. Subject to any comments you may have, it would be my recommendation we <br />adopt the 1998 budget and certify the tax levies as proposed in the agenda packet. <br />JRH:kpv <br />Enclosures <br />Page 29 <br />
