OlammttUT Swart PERSONNEL AND FINANCE COMMITTEE coo tie Olomuwn Mounril of t1, (nig of SoutI Brut: The April 8, 1991 Meeting of the Personnel and Finance Committee was called to order by its Chairperson, Council Member Ann Puzzello at 5: 00 p.m. in the Council Informal Meeting Room. Persons in attendance included Council Members Niezgodski, Puzzello, Coleman, Soderberg, Luecke, Slavinskas, Zakrzewski, Duda, and Ladewski; Terry Coleman, John Liesenring, Katie Humphreys, Jenny Pitts-Manier, Michael Seitz, Don Porter, and Kathleen Cekanski-Farrand. Council Member Puzzello noted that the first item on the agenda was to review Bill No. 24-91 which would transfer monies from various accounts within the Parking Garage Fund 601. Mr. Terry Coleman then reviewed the Bill. He noted that the Bill would transfer $30,000.00 to "other professional services", and would delete $27, 000.00 from hourly salaries, $1,000 from FICA, and $2, 000. 00 from PERF. The overall purpose is to make surplus monies available within the Fund to pay for the proposed contract for private enforcement of the City's Parking Ordinances. Council Member Zakrzewski questioned how much of the $30, 000. 00 would actually be utilized. Mr. Coleman noted that there would be a surplus left at the remainder of the year, and that possible restoration work in the parking garages could be studied with such surplus. It is anticipated that if action would be taken this evening, that enforcement could begin by May 1, 1991. Mr. Coleman then reviewed Bill No. 25-91 which would approve parking rates for parking garages and parking lots operated by the Board of Public Works. Mr. Coleman noted that currently the City is obligated to pay on the balance for the parking garages through the year 2009. Council Member Niezgodski noted that the repairs are needed, and the he is concerned that a higher contract amount for parking enforcement should not be contemplated by the current contract holder. Mr. Coleman noted that appraisals have been done, and that approximately $1,000, 000. 00 each is necessary for the parking garages. Council Member Luecke noted that the only change in the Bill is to add "after hours / evening $2. 00" in Section III. He also noted that Section IV should be amended by deleting the word "Resolution" and replacing it with the word "Ordinance".
