an in-depth examination of the Charter based on Council guidelines. It is anticipated that the Charter Commission will report their recommendations to the Council in early 1992. It is not anticipated that the activities of the City's Comm- issions will significantly impact upon the annual budget. Any budgetary increases are expected to result from increases in general operating expense. 3) Elections - The election activities of the City include the maintenance of Voter Registration records, provision and maintenance of voting and ballot counting equipment, supplies and administrative services, including election judges, necessary for the legal and efficient conduct of elections. It is anticipated that basic election services will change over the next five years with the addition of a Presidential Primary beginning in 1992. Increased expenditures may be required when special elections are held which cannot be anticipated, or the State or Federal governments modify the rules and regulations for the conduct of elections. At the present time, the cost for conducting a Presidential Primary are uncertain as the Secretary of States Office has not promulgated rules which will guide the City in conducting this election. 4) City Hall - The City Hall Division of the Administration Department provides for the maintenance and operation of the City Hall building and office equipment, personnel services, costs of the receptionist, office supplies, postage and liability and automobile insurance premiums. In 1990, a City Hall Space Needs Study was conducted to evaluate the current City Hall facilities. As a result of the study and the increasing demands for work and storage space within City Hall, the Council, at the 1991 Goalsetting session, established the remodeling of City Hall as one of the top priorities for the next five years. 3 _
