To waive the reading and adopt Resolution 6478 2 <br />Converting one Patrol Officer Position to a Sergeant Position. 3 <br /> 4 <br /> Ayes-5 Nays-0 Motion carried. 5 <br /> 6 <br />H. Resolution 6477 Approving Transfers Between Funds for the Year 2004. 7 <br /> 8 <br />Finance Director Hanson stated the proposal before the Council was necessary to close out the 9 <br />year for 2004. He stated that many of the transfers are for the amounts that were budgeted for, 10 <br />but there are some differences. He noted that a transfer to a debt service fund would be paid 11 <br />from T.I.F. District #3 instead of T.I.F. District #1 as was budgeted due to T.I.F. District #1 12 <br />being in a deficit position. He stated the General Fund would show a surplus of between $50,000 13 <br />and $100,000. 14 <br /> 15 <br />Council Member Stigney asked for an explanation of the paragraph regarding the general fund 16 <br />reduction. 17 <br /> 18 <br />Finance Director Hanson remarked that the surplus of $50,000-$100,000 is an adequate fund 19 <br />balance for year end, and it’s in the City’s better interest to leave some money in the other funds. 20 <br />He stated that the golf course was not the only fund that benefited from a reduction; the vehicle 21 <br />and special projects fund also had reductions in their proposed transfers. 22 <br /> 23 <br />Council Member Stigney asked whether the whole purpose was so they didn’t exceed the 50 24 <br />percent threshold. 25 <br /> 26 <br />Finance Director Hanson stated they were trying to avoid getting back into the situation of having 27 <br />more money in the general fund than they really need. 28 <br /> 29 <br />Council Member Stigney stated he had a problem with the $15,000 remaining in the golf course 30 <br />fund. 31 <br /> 32 <br />MOTION/SECOND.
