A. Roll Call
Present:
Mayor Bean; Councilmembers Benson, Malam, McCarty, and Stover; Administrator
Hurm, Planning Director Nielsen, and Finance Director Rolek.
2 ESTABLISH GOALS FOR 1996 AND REVIEW PROPOSED
OPERA TING BUDGET
Rolek outlined the proposed 1996 operating budget. Rolek explained the growth rate from
1994/1995 to 1995/1996 was 11.7% with new construction accounting for 5-6% and inflation
6-7%. He indicated the tax rate for 1995/1996 was 17.548% compared to 1994/1995 of 18.471 %.
Rolek explained the increases in 1996 proposed expenditures were in police, fire, Christmas Lake
Study, increased CIP effort, assessor, election judges, salary adjustments, and the Senior
Community Center. If these increases were subtracted from the proposed expenditures the 1996
budget would actually be $5,551 less than the 1995 adopted budget. The increases in the 1996
proposed levy included a decrease in HACA and in liquor store transfer. If these increases were
subtracted from the 1996 proposed levy, the levy would actually result in an increase of $48,790
more than the 1995 General Tax Levy. Rolek illustrated the alternatives to reduce the 1996 budget
by the Senior Community Center amount.
There was Council consensus to not reduce the 1996 budget by the Senior Community Center
amount.
