• <br />• <br />CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION November 30, 2009 <br />DRAFT <br />80 Council Member Elect Rob Rafferty distributed information to the council relative to health care <br />81 costs. The budget indicates that costs have risen unrealistically and he sees opportunity for <br />82 savings in that area. He will meet with the Finance Officer to discuss his ideas. <br />83 Council Member Reinert requested that staff provide to him historical information on what the <br />84 city his historically planned to put into the area of street maintenance and pavement management <br />85 and what has actually been put in over the past several years. <br />86 The council concurred that budget discussions will begin early in 2011 and that they are <br />87 committed to having the necessary discussions for the coming year and the future. <br />88 The council will continue 2010 budget discussion at the December 7, 2009 work session. In the <br />89 meantime, council members will submit any and all budget ideas to Acting Administrator Tesch <br />90 who will turn them around to the full council with information as quickly as possible. The <br />91 following suggestions were offered: implement new revenue sources during 2010 instead of <br />92 waiting until the beginning of the next year; and step up promotion of commercial development <br />93 in the city. It was recommended that staff recommendations should be included also. <br />94 The meeting was adjourned at 7:50 p.m. <br />95 These minutes were considered and approved at the regular Council meeting held on December <br />96 14, 2009. <br />97 <br />98 • <br />99 <br />100 Julianne Bartell, City Clerk John Bergeson, Mayor <br />
