CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION <br />DRAFT <br />306 previously. Ms. Lynch also noted the eligibility level for the state homestead credit. She <br />307 asked the council to look at the information provided and give direction that will allow <br />308 staff to bring forward a preliminary levy for council approval on September 26tn <br />309 <br />310 Mayor Rafferty noted the question of including the $176,000; he is concerned about areas <br />311 where the City is losing ground. Would the council consider a funding addition with the <br />312 idea that the levy adoption will be a maximum? He suggested an amount of $300,000. <br />313 He also asked Public Safety Director Swenson about ordering for the fleet early. <br />314 Administrator Cotton noted that computer chip production has been a big driver of the <br />315 delay and she believes that situation may be righting itself. Ms. Cotton added that the <br />316 council could approve the capital levy at the September meeting but that would mean the <br />317 City is tied and any changes before the final budget adoption in December could not <br />318 result in any increase. Staff was directed to designate the $124,000 as contingency with a <br />319 streets placeholder. Consideration of the capital budget will not be expedited for <br />320 September. <br />321 10.
