PUBLIC HEARINGS
1. REVIEW OF THE FISCAL BUDGET FOR THE FIVE YEARS BEGINNING
JULY 1, 1988, AND ENDING JUNE 30, 1993 (330.20)
This Hearing was continued from the meeting of June 7, 1988.
The City Manager outlined the highlights of the 1988-89 proposed budget, noting
that it was basically a roll-over budget. The proposed budget projected expenditures
of $8,871,000, which represented an increase of $1,250,000, or 16.6%; revenues of
$8,927,500; and, reserve funds of $2,586,000. He discussed increased costs due to
the addition of a Sheriff's patrol car on the daytime shift; cited concerns with
maintenance of the level of fire protection in the future; and, noted employee
staffing changes. He cited the recommendation of the Cultural .Arts and Heritage
Commission for addition of a City staff position to be responsible for archaeological
resources in the City. He advised that he had not recommended adding the position
since the services can be filled by a contractural arrangement. He advised that a

proposal would be presented to Council during the year to consider retaining a
archaeology group on a consultant on-call basis. He discussed capital improvement
projects scheduled for the year and advised that staff was continuing to work on a
study to bring sewer rates into line relative to the level of service being provided.
Public Hearing:
Notice having been given as required by law, Mayor Hausdorfer opened the Public
Hearing and the following persons responded:
(1) Jan Frazier, 26131 Via Monterey, suggested that in view of the recent
archaeological finds in the City, a portion of the Federal Revenue
Sharing monies be set aside to fund a Cultural Resources Director
position which would be independent of the City and would oversee all
archaeological investigations, particularly in the development of
historically sensitive areas.
(2) Darrell Johnston, inquired as to the amount of Federal Revenue Sharing
funds available; what percentage was given to minorities; and how the
funds were to be spent. He Johnston requested financial information
regarding the use of contract archaeological services versus the cost of
a City staff position and urged consideration of adding the position to
the budget.
There being no further response, Mayor Hausdorfer closed the Public Hearing with
the right to re -open at any time.
Council Discussion:
Discussion ensued regarding the benefits of using contractural archaeological
services versus funding a full-time staff position. There was a consensus that a
recommendation be prepared for the meeting of June 2L, 1988, setting forth
economic data and the pros and cons of the alternatives.
Continuation of Hearing:
With the consensus of Council, Mayor Hausdorfer directed that the Hearing be
continued to the meeting of June 21, 1988.
