CITY MftR ^!# ..
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve Resolution No. 7S^> authorizing the transfer of funds from the
contingency account to fund 83-84 salary adjustments and weed abatement costs.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
1. On June 28, 1983 and July 26, 1983, the City Council approved resolutions
#7267 and #7300, respectively authorizing ammendnents to the salary plan for
miscellaneous and management employees. This resolution authorizes the transfer
of funds from the contingency account to finance these ammendments.
2. The 1983 Weed Abatement Program proved to be much more costly than was
originally anticipated. The costs for the city contractor were approximately
$29,000 compared with $15,000 the previous year. In order to pay the contractor,
the city utilized the balance of funds budgeted in the 1982-83 FY budget (approx-
imately $6,500), plus the funds in the 1983-84 FY budget ($15,000). Approximately
$6,000 in additional funds are needed to pay the contractor for work completed. It
should be noted, however, that all weed abatement costs are recovered from the
property owner receiving the lot cleaning service.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The contingency account balance will be effected as follows by these transfers:
Beginning balance $942,857
Previous transfers 7,100
Current balance $935,757
Proposed transfers:
Miscellaneous salaries $140,000
