Regular Council Meeting 1-26-04 Page 5 _ .?Building Department - Mr. Samac said the Progressive project is moving slowly at this time due to the weather. We will be having the Skoda, Minotti project coming to Council probably at our next meeting. It is going in front of the Planning Commission next week. They hope to get started with building construction in the spring. Fire Denartment - Chief Mohr said we are working on a program for the senior citizens. We have found that numerous times we will respond to senior and shut-ins that they are the only ones there with no family members there and they are in need of inedical help. We can put something like a residential knox box or lock box that allows us a key to get in without doing any damage to the house so we will start looking at that. Finance Denartment - Mr. Brett said I am working on the 2004 budget for the Mayor. We closed the books this morning for 2003. Our overall cash balance in the General Fund was up $400,000 overall; in the cash fund for all funds was up a million dollars over the prior year and that is even with the large amounts of money that we are advancing on the S.O.M. Center Road project. That figure is probably more realistically $1.5 million higher than the previous year's balances.
