Recess
.City Manager Fast presented the proposed two year budget
of 1987/89, reviewing in detail revenues and expenditures.
The 1987/88 operating budget totals $34.3 million, a
slight decrease from current fiscal year. His discussion
included Council's four goal statements adopted by Council
a couple of years ago. He noted the budget reflected very
few new programs and the Division Managers would be pre-
senting their individual division budgets focusing on
continued levels of service.
Each division manager presented slides as visual aids in
explaining each department's budget and services to the
community.
Council discussed two items in particular: 1) More -infor-
mation regarding justification and available options re-
garding the requested increase for senior citizen -meals
served at the Senior Citizen Center. 2) The issue of
drug testing for new employees should reflect Council's
support/policy statement as opposed to a process through
the Personnel Services Department. Staff was directed
to respond with more material later for Council's con-
sideration.
A recess for dinner was
reconvened at 6:34 pm to
