Several <br /> Councilmen had questions related to this department. Councilman Crone <br /> questioned how the Mayor could state that there would be "no additional <br /> cost to the taxpayers" when in fact new monies were needed. Mrs. Barnard <br /> stated that she would be working within the 1983 budget as passed, and would <br /> be submitting a transfer ordinance to reallocate the budgeted money so that <br /> the increase in salaries could be paid. <br /> The Council then discussed the concept of mayoral succession in <br /> such instances when the Mayor became incapicated and unable to carry out <br /> his duties, or when he was physically out of town such as when he is on <br /> vacation. Councilman McGann suggested that the Mayor file with the <br /> City Clerk a written document stating who would be the "acting Mayor".. <br /> Various other questions were raised by the Committee and discuss <br /> followed. It was suggested by Councilman Voorde that Mrs. Schwartz prepare <br /> the needed amendments so that they could be heard next Monday evening. <br /> The Council. then reviewed Bill No. 108-82. Mrs. Barnard suggested <br /> amending it by two separate ordinances addressing 1983 and 1983.. It was <br /> agreed that this would be the best route rather than amending it per her <br /> memo of October 7th. <br /> There being no further business to come before the Committee, the <br /> meeting was adjourned at .6 :25 p.m. <br /> Respectfully Submitted, <br /> John Voorde, Chairman <br />
