Resurveying is to be done in quadrant 47, and Mr. Oxian is reviewing quadrant 45; the Near Northwest. Mr. Stamper introduced Summer Intern Jeanette Burkett to the Commission. She is currently involved in indexing the lists. No further report Budget and Finance Mr. Wasielewski read into the minutes, the tentative 1981 H.P.C. Budget. The proposed budget would yield the loo cost reduction required by the County Commission. The salary for the planner was increased by $1000.00, and other expenses cut by approximately 10%. Mr. Hayes questioned what would occur if the Commission didn't cut the budget by 10%. Mr. Wasielewski stated in that case the County • Commission would cut the budget. Mr. Hayes stated we should also show our personal monetary input to the budget, for making up defecits. He said we should develop a budget 15-20% higher than the previous budget, and state the remaining amount is coming from the Commission's own resources. Mr. Oxian stated we should present two budgets to the County Commissioners One showing a properly funded Historic Preservation Commission, and the other a reduced H.P.C. budget. Mrs. Price felt we should present the budget with the 10% required cut, and state the Historic Preservation Comm. would strive to cooperate with the County Commissioners in this matter. Mr. Hayes requested we attach a letter to the budget stating we have had to make up over $1000:00 in travel expenses last year, which is not evident in the budget. Mr. Oxian stated we should give a broader perspective than travel, we should also include staff, salary, travel, publications, etc. Mr. Oxian moved the Commission take two budgets to the County Commissioners An ideal H.P.C. budget, and the reduced budget, displaying the impact of these cuts. The motion was seconded by Mr. Reinke. The motion was • carried. The Commission members felt the city should help provide funding for the Historic Preservation Commission.
