Ms. Acosta stated there is one outstanding issue in the Operating Budget which is the <br />Convention and Visitor's Bureau request for more money than is included in the budget. <br />Ms. Acosta stated that she requested the Council to adopt the budget as is ($106 thousand) even <br />though the Convention and Visitor's Bureau is requesting $131 thousand. Ms. Acosta stated that <br />after staff meets with the Bureau on June 29, she hopes she will be able to bring back a joint <br />recommendation. <br /> <br /> Ms. Michelotti asked if Ms. Acosta and the Convention and Visitor's Bureau come to <br />some consensus and feel more money is justified, will that particular issue be brought back to <br />Council, and how will it be funded? Ms. Michelotti asked if the same process will take place <br />for the Library services? <br /> <br /> Ms. Acosta mentioned that if the recommendation comes back to Council, then there will <br />be some trade-offs versus going out and f~nding more money. Ms. Acosta stated there is an <br />issue how library services are provided and there are questions 'regarding the booklegger <br />program. She felt that as additional library materials and funding are allocated to the library to <br />Pleasanton from the County, these are issues that need to be worked through. <br /> <br /> Ms. Dennis asked why there is a reduction in revenue projection. <br /> <br /> Ms. Acosta stated that is because of the recycling efforts, there are fewer materials going <br />to the landfill where the fees are charged. <br /> <br /> Ms. Michelotti acknowledged that staff recommends expenditures of $27 thousand dollars <br />which are included in the budget and will be used for youth and senior programs, library <br />programs, as well as training in the Police and Fire Departments and that money was made <br />available by a donation from members of the community, Michael and Sheryl Faber. <br /> <br /> It was moved by Ms. Mohr, and seconded by Ms. Michelotti, that Resolution 95-67, be <br />adopted, approving the 1995/96 and 1996/97 Operating Budget and Housing and Community <br />Development Block Grant Program. <br /> <br />The roll call vote was as follows: <br />AYES: Councilmembers Dennis, Michelotti, Mohr, and Vice Mayor Pico <br />NOES: None <br />ABSENT: Mayor Tarver <br />ABSTAIN: None <br /> <br />Item 6e (2) <br />Review and adoption of the Five Year Capital Improvement Program for Fiscal Years <br />1995-96 through 1999-2000.
