2,66 March 9, 1981 Mrs. Elsenpeter asked, if y the 18th of March does this City have to have awarded the bids for the Lake Drive Sewer project? Mr. Schumacher said he wasn't sure, but he would check it out with the Consultant. On voting on the motion, the motion passed with Mr. MCLean voting, No. 1981 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM Mr. Schumacher pointed out under the Fire Department there are no allocations. There is an extensive Fire Fighting Service Study he would like them to review before this is considered. The proposed street improvements were discussed with Mr. Volk making note of the fact that the cost figures are his estimates and he did not know how accurate they are. Mr. Schumacher felt that the Council should take time to review this material and ste a time for discussion. Mr. McLean felt that a special meeting should be set for consideration of this program, and the Fire Service Study. The Council will study these two documents and set a special meeting at the next Council meeting for their consideration. SALARY ADJUSTEMENTS The first one to be considered was the Aministrator's. Mayor Gourley reported that the Ways and Means Committee had met for over two hours and thisis the recommendation that had come out of that meeting. Mr. McLean questioned the objectives in that they were not specific. Mr. McLean suggested that he meet with Mr. Schumacher and with his cooperation, develop the specific areas, then develop the salary in- crease at the same time. After some discussion, and since the salary increase is retroactive, Mr. Jaworski moved to table until the items discussed are cleared. Mr. McLean seconded. Aye. Mayor Gourely said he refused to call a special meeting on this sence the three other Council members had already met. Mr. Jaworski moved to adopt the salary increase propsoed for the Clerk - Treasurer. Seconded by Mrs. Elsenpeter. The Clerk asked what the proposal was? The Clerk was asked if she had a copy of the proposal and she said she did not. Mayor Gourley asked Mr. Schumacher if he had given her a copy and he said, No. Mrs. Elsenpeter said it was her understanding that the City Administrator was to go over this with the Clerk before they made a decision. Mr. Schumacher said he did go over it with the Clerk. Mayor Gourley moved to table this until the Clerk has received a copy of the proposal. Seconded by Mr. McLean. Motion carried. The next salary to be considered was that of the Assessor. Mayor Gourley felt that the records should be kept in the City Hall and a certain amount of work should be done in the City offices. He would recommend that those records be kept in City Hall and that some arrangements be made for a certain amount of time be spent at City Hall. He said he would not recommend what percentage of her time should be spent at the office - this would be an tiem that would have to worked out with the Assessor.
