The balance available in the Park i Ma ntenence Fund as of April 30, was V,519-58, after -8n advance of $20.,000.00 from Spring Tazes. It is my duty ss Controller to keep the Cduncil advised as to the amount offunds, available for the various purposes for which the Council appropriates money. The Park Board-members- have - assured -the Mayor -snd myself that- sufficient funds will be available for this appropriation be fore they are needed by reason of an increase in the receipts from park activities.
