<br />Mr. McKay, chairperson of the Finance Committee: 1) The committee met on Monday,
<br />March 27. Present were committee members O'Grady, Limpert, McKay; Council
<br />members Gareau, Miller, Kasler, Nashar; Mayor Musial, Finance Director Copfer, Safety
<br />Director Jenkins, Building Commissioner Conway, Springvale Manager Young,
<br />Springvale Grounds Superintendent Wallace, Rec Manager Morgan, Maintenance
<br />Supervisor Stein. Appropriations reviewed were:
<br />• Building Department, which was approved as submitted. The committee
<br />recommended approval.
<br />• Springvale. The first adjustment was to increase line item 1226, refund, from
<br />$2,000 to $5,000. The projected increase was due to the amount of expected booking

<br />1267, transferable note retirement, was reduced from $50,000 to $42,600. That was

<br />system was then discussed. It is in need of $34,000 due to the age of the equipment.
<br />Line item 163, equipment purchase, was increased from zero to $34,000.
