" <br /> A considerable amount of discussion then took place over the positions <br /> of a Sales Coordinator and a Clerk I position proposed at $9,771. Mr. <br /> Murray said that both of these positions are presently being funded by <br /> Hotel/Motel funds. <br /> Mr. Hedman indicated that he hoped to hire five more part-time <br /> employees, thus doubling the part-time staff. He also noted that several <br /> of the increases in maintenance and supplies, and repairs were needed <br /> because the building was 3 1/2 years old. <br /> ART ASSOCIATION <br /> The Committee then reviewed the Art Association budget proposed at <br /> $36, 000. Mr. John Bryce explained that he has a staff of 12, and an over- <br /> all budget of $300, 000. He noted that the sum of $36, 000 had been the <br /> same figure for the past three years, and basically represented rental <br /> charges of $3, 000 per month.

The meeting was recessed at 12 :40. <br /> WATER WORKS <br /> Councilman Crone reconvened the meeting at 1: 30 p.m. . Michael Vance <br /> began by reviewing the Water Works budget proposed at $4, 135,396 for an <br /> overall increase of 9%. He gave an update on the water rate increase,which <br /> had a hearing on April 23rd. It was indicated then that a decision would <br /> be made in four to six weeks. The matter is still pending before the <br /> Hearing Officer. Mr. Vance speculated that the issues of a "lifeline <br /> rate" and "apartment rate concerns" were probably affecting the decision. <br /> Overall the Water Works Department willbe down three (3) employees in <br /> 1982. Councilman McGann raised several questions regarding positions which <br /> were apparently upgraded. Since these were done under John Leszczynski, <br /> he was unable to offer an explanation. <br /> Councilman Crone inquired into the P E R F amounts. Mr. Vance explainer <br /> that the amount is figured by taking the amounts in the 110 and 130 <br /> accounts, times 6%. P E R F is paid quarterly and is a set amount. It <br /> was pointed out that there had been a surplus in this amount in the past. <br /> It was explained that a 7% figure may have been used, however he would <br /> check into it for the Committee. <br /> -3- <br />
