<br />for the dep~rtment -time and money savers in the long run; concern
<br />was expressed over the fact that the same quality of maintenance.
<br />should be evidenced througho.ut the ci ty ,- and the stres s for beauty
<br />for Shores is being expected without providing sufficient working
<br />personnel or corresponding funds; it was suggested that there be a
<br />stipulation re all new Shores plans - that maintenance costs and
<br />number of man hours be determined at planning stage, by Plannmng
<br />Department and Council, and that additional adequate personnel be
<br />provided as each new area is accepted by the city for maintenance,
<br />that it was felt it was urgent to request 11 additional personnel
<br />for the Park Department by January 1st.
<br />
<br />commissioner Morgan, seconded by Commissioner Schenck, moved to
<br />accept the report of the Budget Sub-Committee, motion passed,
<br />Commissioner Whitmore being noted absent.
<br />
<br />Mr. Ullrich said 11 men for the Park Department would cost about
<br />$110,000 for salaries, plus 2~~ benefits, that reserve fund of
<br />$200, 000 presently has $160, 000 left in it -and this has 'to do for
<br />all unanticipated needs - and the present budget would not have
<br />enough money for 11 additional men for the park department.
<br />
<br />Commissioner Thompson moved to recommend that a letter be written
<br />to the City Manager, for the Council, outlining the critical needs
<br />for additional Park Department working personnel to care for present
<br />park and recreation areas, landscaped parkways, other landscape areas
<br />and facilities, plus proportionate allocation of funds for vehicle
<br />expense,. special departmental supplies, contractual services, and
<br />so forth, and to request that urgent consideration be given to the
<br />providing of eleven (11) additional men to the Park Department by
<br />January 1, 1970, seconded by Commissioner Morgan, and passed, Comm-
<br />issioner Stuart voting no, and Commissioner Whitmore being noted absent.
