Dear "Jr. vemeth:
The DeDartment of Public narks is requesting the Colmnon Council to approve
the enclosed resolution for tr•ansf-,-r of funds. All transfers are in the
same budget classifications in the Genaral Palk ,'{uzd.
ti4e are asking that account `264, Paving be reduced $1 ,000.00 and account
#261, Other Contractual Services increased by $4,000.00. 1,e have a balance
Din account #2649 Paving because the Street Department was able to do the
paving gnat we had budgeted in the 1972 budget. In return, the Park De-
partment cooperated TAth the Street Department in cl taring road right-of-
ways and street intersections of shrubs, trees and weeds.
We need additional monies in account 1261, because of costs incurred mostly
in the Unden Park :project. Costs such as appraisal fees, attorney fees for
conderuiati.on suits, demolition costs, abstracts and title searches. These
costs are fifty per cent refundable through H.U.D. An application for a
partial payment was sent to H.U.D. three months ago but there is no in-
dication from H.U.D. when the partial pa.pdent check will be sent. [Then the
check is received, it will be deposited in the General Park Fund.
We are transferring $200.00 from account X322, 011; $200.00 from account
#323, Tires & Tubes; and $19500.00 from account #331, Household, Laundry &
Cleaning to Account 1372, Zoo Feed. The increased cost of food, especially
meat and the underbudgeti.ng in the zoo feed account, has caused a shortage
in the Zoo feed account.
t
Mr. Peter J. Nemeth. ?resident
South Beni C onmton Council

t°?e have a surplus in account 1-322, Oil; account #323, Tires & Tubes; and
account ;f331, Household, laundry & Cleaning because of better procurement
practices.
We are transferring $2,000.00 from account #441, Seeds, Trees & Flowers to
account ;542, General Park Materials. In the last three years, account
Yi�2, General Park MAterials has been reduced $780.00. With the increases
cost of .m. ta7clals, the account was underbudgeted for 1972 thus additional
funds are needed if we want to continue iiproving park facilities. There
is a surplus in account ;441, Seeds, Trees & F1ot,Ters since we were able to
use trees from our tree nursery and replace the trees with trees from the
Department of Natural Resources at no cost to the local ta;mayer.
Very truly yours,
