<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Session 1966 <br />MINUTES OF THE UNIVERSITY CITY COUNCIL <br /> <br />May 18, 2005 <br /> <br />At a Budget Study Session of the City Council of University City held in the Library <br />Auditorium on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, Mayor Joseph Adams called the meeting to <br />order at 6:30 P.M. In addition to Mayor Adams, the following members of Council were <br />present: <br /> <br /> Ms. Cassandra Colquitt (6:41 P.M.) <br /> Ms. Francine Brungardt <br /> Mr. Robert Wagner <br />Ms. Stefany Brot <br /> Ms. Shelley Welsch <br /> <br />Also present was the City Manager, Frank Ollendorff and Director of Finance, Willie <br />Norfleet. Mr. Sharpe was absent this evening. <br /> <br />The purpose of this meeting was to continue and to complete the review of the Budget <br />for the year 2005-2006 and discussion resumed on page C-57 as Mr. Ollendorff <br />explained that the remaining parts of the General Fund expenditure accounts related to <br />Parks and Recreation programs. <br /> <br />Item One – Park Maintenance, Administration and Forestry <br /> <br />There are no major changes here. <br /> <br />The City Manager drew the attention of the Council to the “Capital Outlay” section on <br />page C-61, indicating that the last item, Kaufman Park, is this year’s park designated for <br />upgrading to modern standards. Kaufman Park playground is next on the list but could <br />be delayed, if there are other “dire, higher priority projects” deemed by the Council as <br />more important. It there are any excess funds, the next project in this area to be funded <br />is the restroom in the picnic area. It is the next highest priority. If something could be <br />added to the budget, this is where it needs to be added. He then drew attention to the <br />lighting of the north side of the athletic fields, between the tennis courts and the <br />recreation center. <br /> <br />Mr. Ollendorff continued to say the next two items not in this budget are the Heman <br />Park restrooms and the north side field lighting. Ms. Brot asked if capital outlay was <br />part of this budget and she was advised it was. He referred her to page C-58, <br />explaining that the expenditures in each department were under four categories: 1) <br />personnel, 2) contractual services, 3) commodities, and 4) capital outlay.
