PURPOSE
OF BUDGET WORKSHOP 2: Establish
a preliminary budget and propose a tentative millage rate for the upcoming
fiscal year.
PURPOSE
OF BUDGET WORKSHOP 2: To
review historical fiscal data. Estimate
income, expenses and tentative millage rate for the upcoming fiscal year.
Manager Burns reviewed the changes that were discussed at
the first Budget Meeting. He also
briefed the Commission that Chief John Cash was offered the family medical
coverage in lieu of getting a large raise when he took over as chief.
The coverage hasn’t started yet so Manager Burns suggested to the
Commission that the town compensate Chief Cash for the months of not having
family medical coverage. He
suggested giving Chief Cash a check for $1500 right now which is approximately 6
months of what he would have been making had he received the raise.
Commissioner Behnken moved to give Chief Cash an incentive bonus of
$1500 out of this year’s budget. Commissioner
Garcia seconded the motion and it passed unanimously.
Commissioner
Behnken moved to set the tentative millage rate at 2.4 mils.
Commissioner Garcia seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. 2.4 mils
is slightly lower than the rollback rate.
