105 Staff report stated transfer of sums is needed to adjust year-end balances in appropriation accounts, transfers all being from specific appropriations to named activities and no transfer from budgeted reserves required. After further Coun- cil questioning on various items for clarifications, motion carried on roll call vote. Councilman Rosselli moved to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 5379 APPROPRIATING $1,586 FROM UNAPPRO- PRIATED BALANCE OF SALES TAX CAPITAL EXPENDITURE FUND TO PROVIDE FOR PURCHASE OF CASH REGISTER (Hoover Swim Pool) seconded by Councilman Henderson. Staff report stated no cash control devices were included in the 1966-67 budget for the swim pool at Hoover School. The Recreation Director and the Auditor - Accountant have determined that a garage type cash register (NCR Model K228 -2F) WITH 8 selective columnar totals would best meet the needs to provide cash con- trol and necessary segregation of receipts by type of income, and would provide positive audit controls. Councilman Bury expressed concern for one of this type. Councilman Rosselli commented on the higher cost of cash registers used in his business operation and its value for record keeping, which would probably explain need for a similar type to be used at the Hoover Swim Pool. Recreation Director stated the cash register requested would provide a sound accounting system and save many hours of labor. Councilman Henderson stated she had indicated her approval because she felt it would prove to be a saving in the long run by cutting labor costs. Councilman Bury questioned whether labor saving costs might be in opposition to City's desire to help employment of youth in the City. Recreation Director further explained procedures which would be used by cash register proposed and also this type of work is done by supervisors so no employment opportunities actually being taken from the young people. Councilman Granger questioned costs of registers further and appropriation made previously. Auditor -Accountant urged approval of this appropriation as being worthwhile for the savings in man hours for accounting which would be experienced in his Department. Motion carried on roll call vote, Councilman Bury and Mayor Herkner voting no. Change Order to A -Dredge Contract, Marine World, GID 1-64, Staff report stated change order involves dredging of a bulb in the slough rather than the projected widening. City Manager's report and recommendation for approval was previously sent to Council, explaining reasons for this request which will result in a very substantial overall saving to the District because: 1. The combined excavation requirements for Dredge A and Dredge C would be reduced. 2. Only one relocation of the scavenger road would be needed rather than a two phase operation, as had been originally contemplated. 3. There will be no need for construction of a second series of dikes corresponding to the new waterway limits involved in the successive development of Dredge A & Dredge C-1, reflecting a net saving of $301,778,00, based on the budgeted figures for Dredge A & Dredge C-1. 0 '67
