I . I . - many, many, many months ago, and this is an important step in the process. I think it would be inconsistent not to support this resolution tonight, even though I have not supported the increase in the budget, because this is an integral part of the process of "---' getting City Hall built. Whatever the budget, this is the process we have to go through. I remain pleased with the process. I think we have undertaken a very competitive process that when construction starts no matter that we might differ on the budget, we will get quality work done by quality people, and we will have fewer problems in the course of construction because of the process." Councilman Leipzig said that "as the other 'no' vote on the original vote to increase the budget, 1 am going to be consistent, perhaps in a different way, and vote 'no.'

The City as an agency issuing parking citations is required to adopt a new method of processing and collecting parking citations and fines. The change will become effective for all citations issued after June 30, 1996. The proposed Resolution does not change the amount of fines levied for parking citations, but the revenue realized by the City is expected to increase from $125,000 per year to $128,000 per year as a result of the present revenue distribution formula being eliminated after June 30,1996.
