-2- SEPTEMBER 29, 1975 SALARIES. On the matter of salaries for the remainder of 1975 and for all of 1976, the Clerk has projected an additional $1,595.99 as being needed for 1975 which, if used, will put the Park Fund $1 ,200.00 over budget for salaries for this year. Mr. McLean wanted to know if the salaries consumed thus far included the workers made available to the City under the CETA Funds for 1975? (Upon checking with the Clerk on 9/30/75, she informed me that we have not received a bill for their time and further stated that all but one of the workers was completely funded by the Federal Government. The City's portion of that worker is approximately $.50 per hour. ) Based on that Mr. Resch recommends $7,000.00 to be budgeted for 1976 with a 20% increase built in for a total of $7,500.00 for salaries. Mr. McGeary agreed with this figure, noting that if LaMotte Park is developed it will take more time just in transportation to and from that park because it is remote from the rest of the Parks within the City. Mr. Volk said that if that park is added it will require more than 40 hours per week to keep the mowing up in the parks. CONTRACTED SERVICES. So far we are under the budgeted amount for this year. Mrs. LeTourneau wanted to know what this category included. Mr. Volk said it would probably include rental of various items, i .e. lawn mowers, chain saws, the Bobcat and other machinery that has been required throughout the City during the year that the City does not have. It was deceided to keep the figure at $1 ,000.00 for the coming year. UTILITIES AND SUPPLIES. $800.00 has been budgeted for this year and to date $926.94 has been spent; an over budget of $126.94 for the year. The Park Board projects an additional $300.00 being needed in this category for the remainder of the year, based on the useage figure of $100.00 per month. This is for electrical services for the most part and the supplies that are covered under this are mostly miscellaneaous items such as paint, bathroom supplies, etc. It also included the phone at Sunrise Park (average bill per month is $11 .90 with a high bill of $23.80 for this year) -/' -UJ Natural Gas is used at the warming house and the bill for service, so far th i s yea r, i s $91 .33 - 9 J.
