about the merit program. He said our average employee in the center of the payscale
is competitive with other cities, and he said they are competitive because of the
way the pay has been handled every year.
The Capital Equipment/Capital Improvements Budget, total of $222,596.00 was the
next item discussed. Manager Rozansky said he did not put the Senior Center in
the Capital Improvements Budget because the $175,000 was allocated from this year's
Budget and when we go through our Budget revision in a couple weeks, it will be
reflected in there. Then as we go through the Budget season, we can encumber the
funds and move them forward in this Budget if the center is not completed.

discussed. Then the Water and Sewer Budget in the amount of $2,143,863 was
