He also agreed that there was a need for the mobile <br />data terminal. However, he said he had not heard good <br />justification for the other requests and noted that the Police <br />Department has three (3) months to provide the justification. <br />Council Member Kuether asked if there will be any money left in <br />the 1992 Budget to use to purchase a new squad. Mr. Schumacher <br />said he support the position that there be a six (6) month fund <br />balance to operate the City. At this time he was not aware of <br />whether there will be additional dollars. <br />Council Member Bergeson suggested that the City Council <br />appropriate a dollar amount in the 1993 Budget and let the Chief <br />of Police spend the money where he feels it is most appropriate. <br />Elections - Mrs. Anderson explained that she all the equipment <br />needed to operate the three (3) precincts at this time. However, <br />if there is equipment failure, nothing is available as a <br />replacement. Mrs. Anderson told the City Council that she will <br />be requesting an additional accu -vote tabulating machine. <br />Consultants - Mr. Schumacher explained that a five (5) year <br />computer hardware /software plan has been drafted. He noted that <br />the payroll, financial and utility software all should be <br />updated. <br />Revenues were briefly discussed. The last page of the draft <br />budget contained a table showing what taxes are projected to be <br />on a $115,000.00 and a $150,000.00 home if the levy proposed is <br />adopted. <br />Mr. Schumacher explained that it was the intent to let the City <br />Council see all of the needs of each department. Mayor Reinert <br />said that the department heads should not get the impression that <br />the City Council said yes to all needs. <br />The meeting was adjourned at 8:32 P.M. <br />These minutes were considered, corrected and approved at a <br />regular meeting of the City Council held on November 9, 1992. <br />Marily G.
