Deputy Mayor Arnold asked Council permission to discuss the budget as the next item
due to the lateness of the hour - for the benefit of the audience. Deputy Mayor Arnold
said we had an estimated budget with present millage of 2.14 with anticipation to
increase it 5%. On that basis we were anticipating 193,000 revenue. We found out
yesterday that our millage for 1979-80 is 2.05, which is due to the workings of the
formula. So instead of $193,000 ad valorem we are reduced to some $160,000 and we
can only increase it 3% to 2.11 mills. If we take our maximum millage permitted by
the legislature which is 2.11 mills, we could get $172,900 in ad valorem, which is
about $20,100 less than we had projected. We can take the $20,000 from some other
fund or we can increase our public service tax 1%, which would be about $29,000.
The budget as being presented to Council tonight minus the $20,100 reduction due to
the millage change totals $1,030,476 which includes a 3% raise in public service tax
.

.
from 4 to 7% which produces $87,150.00 revenue. Now if the proposed budget with a
decrease in ad valorem but the increase to 7% of public service tax is accepted, then
we still have to reduce th" General Government Capital improvements line from $85,000
to $64,900.00.
If we do not accept the proposed public service tax increase at all, the capital
improvements line will have to be 0, our year end surplus will have to be 0, the
Mayor's contingency will have to be 0 and some other item will have to be reduced
some 6,000.00.
Deputy Mayor Arnold explained that if we do not increase our revenues this year, then
for the 1980-81 FY we would have to raise some $100,000-$200,000 to continue our
current level of services.
If we postpone action this year, we can pay our bills - so it is up to everyone to
make their decisions which way they want to go.
The budget is to go back to the Department Heads to see if they can reduce their
individual budgets, Deputy Mayor Arnold is to see if the General Government budget
can be reduced and for resubmission to Deputy Mayor Arnold by Monday, July 30, 1979.
