Regular City Council Meeting <br />August 19, 2003 <br />Page 12 <br />back.The City Manager asked if he needed these funds to pay for the tractor <br />driver. Mr. Haynes said the driver is paid out of the Airport Budget because <br />he works at the Airport and one of his jobs is to mow lots. City Manager <br />Malone asked him if he did not need to use this money to pay for the driver out <br />of this budget so we can allocate and know where the resources are being spent, <br />and Mr. Haynes said they could. Councilman Bell advised that if they don't <br />take the $25,000.00 from this budget, they need to take some amount here and <br />some out of the Airport budget because he is not working full time at the <br />Airport. Councilman Fendley said they could take a look at this later. <br />Councilman Guest said that this budget calls for a 20% increase over last year, <br />is that correct, if you look on page 137 where the total goes from $449,000.00 <br />to $593,800.00. Mr. Haynes said that the only thing that is incorrect in the <br />budget is the personnel cost, the rest of the items on the supplies, and <br />contractual, etc., should be the correct. <br />Mayor Fendley announced that the next budget for consideration would be the <br />Airport. <br />Mr. Haynes said that in the Capital Outlay Account there is $166,667.00 which <br />is a$150,000.00 grant plus $16,000.00 match and they have also asked for a <br />tractor and shredder for this department. <br />He said the balance of the items are pretty much the same as they have been. <br />Councilwoman Neeley asked about the hospitalization in regard to why it had <br />doubled. Mr. Haynes said that it picked up the other employee who should not <br />be covered under this budget and it needed to be reduced by $6,000.00. <br />Mayor Fendley announced that the Engineering Department would be <br />considered next. <br />
