Recreation
City Manager Flatley presented a proposal on recreation items needed as
prepared by Tim Tapp, Recreation Director. Mr. Flatley mentioned that
this proposal will have to be prioritized and implemented over a 5 year
period as no provisions are in this budget.
Water
The Water fund budget allows for debt service on $790, 000 for
rehabilitation of the water plant. Mr. Flatley stated that no rate
increase is anticipated as it appears that the revenue from the
conservation rates implemented in 90/91 will be sufficient to cover the
debt service. The costs for painting the tower have not been received
and Mr. Flatley will report back to the Commission upon receiving this
information.
Sewer
Mr. Flatley advised that there will be an increase in sewer expenditures
due to the increase in sewer costs to Hollywood. Annual adjustments for
88/89 and 89/90 amounting to $172, 600 were just received and the 91/92
cost will be $.95 per 1,000 gallons. Discussion followed on the need to
add an additional clerk at a cost of $14 ,000 to function as a full-time
cashier allowing the present clerk to be cross trained and also utilized
in other Finance areas.

if additional state revenue funds are received.

Discussion followed on no salary increases to employees other than step
increases for those individuals involved. Marie Jabalee stated that she
would report back to the Commission on the cost of the step increases.
Comments were made from the Commission on capital improvements needed in
the City and financing arrangements that would have to be coordinated.
Mr. Flatley mentioned that he anticipates $500,000 to 1. 5 million for a
` new park on the north side of Griffin Road from Broward County in
f regards to the sale of the Tigertail property.
Commissioner Bertino requested City Manager Flatley review the need for
certain employees taking City vehicles home.

and reviewed line items for each department budget.
