last year's budget, due to reduction in revenues as well as increased expenses.
The Committee is recommending a reduction in city work force by fourteen
__ positions, effective May 24, 1985. Five additional positions which were vacated
through attrition, will not be filled. This will reduce the total city employees
from sixty-five (65) in 1984/85, to forty-six (46) for fiscal year 1985/86.
Mr. Molendyk commented that, due to staff reorganization, we should be able
to provide a level of service as good or better than last year. He also
recommended that, at the May 28th Council meeting, we set the date for public
hearing of the 1985/86 budget for June 11, 1985.
Council discussion followed regarding lay-off procedures and Mr. Molendyk
explained that each affected employee would be given two weeks pay and their
medical coverage continued through June, 1985.
