Session 1309, Minutes Page 10 June 7, 1982 Mr. Schoomer asked if transportation funds were available in the camp budget, and if the premise of having a section of the pool to use for lessons was feasible for the camp. Mrs. Gianoulakis said there were no funds for transport to the pool nor to pay for lessons. After consultation with the Parks Director, Mr. Ollendorff said a small section of the Heman pool could be set aside at the beginning of the afternoon public swim ses- sion at 1:00 p.m. for an hour or two, with Childgrove's own instructors. However, fees would be involved, since even residents are charged. Mayor Mooney said he thought the amendment proposed by Mr. Adams was a reasonable compromise, and he called for a vote on the amendment. All voted Aye except Mrs. Thompson and Mr. Levy, who voted Nay. Mayor Mooney then called for a vote on the conditional use permit, as amended, and all voted Aye except Mr. Levy, who voted Nay. The Mayor reviewed the conditions, stated earlier. Mr. Ollendorff added that it should be made very clear that the permit is for this year only. CLARIFICATION. RE PROPOSED CONDOMINIUM CONVERSION AT 6803 KINGSBURY Mr. Ollendorff said he wished to respond to a question. asked during discussion of this agenda item.

Its program for the next fiscal year is based on a thorough review of merchant and property owner concerns and is a con- tinuation of the successful efforts inaugurated last year. Mr. Ollendorff recom- mended approval of the plan and budget as presented. He said the property owners, merchants and the commission were to be congratulated for an outstanding job, and he said the public should be reminded that these funds were derived from a special tax agreed to by all parties. Mr. Adams moved approval. Mr. Levy seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. ANNUAL BUDGET APPROVAL Mr. Ollendorff said the revised budget before the Council for final action was bal- anced at a total of $100,000 less than the 1981-82 budget, and this was due, in part, to a reduction in the fund balance to the minimum level consistent with fiscal in- tegrity. His opinion was that additional expenditures must be offset by reductions in other programs or new taxes. Additional reductions in expenditures would serve to provide a greater margin of financial security. He said it would be necessary to continue to find additional cost-cutting measures in order to avoid even larger tax increases next year. He noted that the basic objective was to cut back on low- er priority programs in order to maintain high quality in those areas which are
