<br /> Parks and Recreation - Alternatives,(pp 7-9)
<br /> C�ty Manager Fales referred to his report of June 4, 1976 regarding the
<br /> status of the review�of the recommended 1976-77 Annual Budget and '
<br /> attaching report of the City Controller, also dated June 4.,�Mr. Fales
<br /> summarized the results of Council action to date, calling attention
<br /> to pages 7-9 of the Alternatives regarding Parks and Recreation Areas.
<br /> In response to questions, Mr. Fales reported that Council had elimt-
<br /> nated the $107,711 allocated for Palm Park and distributed it as follows:
<br /> $50,000 to the General Fund Reserve, $50,000 to reduce the property
<br /> tax levy, remaining $7,711 to be used at Red Morton Community Park, the
<br /> grand total being proposed for expenditure from the Cap�tal Outlay
<br /> Fund for the purpose of park and recreation area developments becoming
<br /> $316,423. Mr. Fales pointed out that $314,924 rema�ns unallocated �n
<br /> that Fund. Mr Fales observed that the $7,711 allocated to Red Morton
<br /> Park for the play area is a peculiar amount being the balance remaining
<br /> when the $100,000 reduction was made from Palm Park, is not adequate for
<br /> a play area, and that if Council intends to eliminate the entire alloca-
<br /> tion for Red Morton Park, would not be needed.
<br /> In response to question, Mr. Fales advised that Revenue Sharing Funds
<br /> can be used for certain capital improvement pro�ects, such as park and
<br /> recreation pro�ects
<br /> Discussion followed concerning uses which may be made of Revenue Sharing
<br /> Funds, whether or not Council pol�cy regarding such funds is to be ,
<br /> followed, the previously demonstrated intent of Council to use Revenue
<br /> Sharing funds appropriately, the desire of the Council to use the funds
<br /> on pro,7ects and programs which could be term�nated upon possible term�na-
<br /> tion of the funds, and the latitude which exists.
