1982 BUDGET
MR. KRIESEL presented the 1982 Budget worksheets to the Council. He explained
that the budget worksheets ref lected Department Head requests and also the
Finance Director's recommendations.
MR. KRIESEL also presented cash summary worksheets that explained what the cash
balance at year -end would be based on the Department Head requests and also as
based on his recommendation. Mr. Kriesel felt that at least $250,000 - $300,000
should be cut from the Department Head's requests in order to help the City
acquire and maintain an adequate cash surplus at the end of the year.
MR. KRIESEL asked the Council to review the worksheets for the next budget meeting.
He would submit additional information for the next meeting such as a detailed
explanation of salary and Capital Outlay requests.

that the City Council consider installing wheelchair access ramps on Main and Chest-
nut and Main and Myrtle Streets. MR. MONSON also requested the availability of a
parking space for Senior Citizens near the Senior Citizen Center. This he thought
would require the removal of one parking meter. The total cost of doing the ramp work
would be about $5,400.

budget process.
