Beck Member of the Common Council A public hearing was held on the resolution at this time. Michael Vance, Controller, indicated this resolution will decrease the 1984 operating budgets for Century Center, Morris Civic and Discovery Hall. He indicated this was necessary to reflect what has previously been accomplished by the Administrative Staff at Century Center because of a reevaluation of the revenues expected in 1984. He indicated that through this resolution 1984 expenditures are limited and therefore any additional revenues may be applied to the 1985 proposed operating budgets. Council Member Taylor made a motion to adopt this resolution, seconded by Council Member Puzzello. The resolution was adopted by a roll call vote of nine ayes.
