MOTION/SECOND: Blanchard/Rickaby to adopt Consent Agenda as presented. 5 ayes 0 nays Motion Carried COUNCIL BUSINESS: 1. City Administrator, Samantha Orduno, introduced this item. Orduno explained that this Clean Up Day was the biggest ever, however, expenditures far exceeded the revenues. Even though fees were raised in antici- pation of increased expenditures, this action did not provide sufficient revenue to offset the substantial loss, therefore, a budget transfer of $4,700 must be made from the Contingency Fund to the Spring Clean Up Day Fund. Orduno also explained that because of tight budgets and service re-evaluations, it might betime to re-examine this program and the recycling program to find alternative • ways to provide services to residents . It was recommended that the City's Environmental Quality Task Force be assigned the task of re-examining the recycling program and possible alternatives for the City's Annual Spring Clean Up Day. MOTION/SECOND: Quick/Blanchard to approve Resolution No. 4103 Authorizing a Transfer to Pay Costs Associated with the 1991 Spring Clean-Up Day Councilmember Quick stated that every year there has been on overrun on this project and he supported a re-examination of the program.
