Session 1304, Minutes Page 6 May 3, 1982 by the City for debt and capital reserve. This is not being discontinued but has been moved into a separate account. Also under Contractual Services, he pointed out that the amount allocated for Building Repairs and Maintenance (6.01) for 1981-82 included tuckpointing the old library, and that the amount allocated for 1982-83 is a smaller amount, about the same as that spent in 1980-81. He noted that there was no allocation for 1982-83 under Capital Outlay, since there were no current projects for building improvement. He felt that maintenance of City property was being kept current, and no large outlays will be needed in the near future. Insurance and Pensions (1018). Mr. Ollendorff said increases are expected in sev- eral items in this account. Under Hospital and Medical Insurance (4.07) the amount budgeted for 1981-82 ($265,000) was not adequate and the City will spend $290,000. For 1982-83, the budget shows $324,000 since a 10% increase was anticipated; however, it has just been learned that the increase will be on the order of 45%, so the bud- geted amount should be changed from $324,000 to $424,000. Mr. Ollendorff noted that the City was actively seeking other proposals for the City's hospital and medical insurance, and as many alternatives as possible will be considered. Mr. McPhail said that Worker's Compensation (4.04), while up slightly for 1982-83, should remain con- siderably under what it was several years ago. Data Processing (1019). Mr. McPhail said the City was in the process of moving to its own computer system, and the services of McAuto and Modern Urban Systems Tech- nology will not be needed in 1982-83. What is budgeted is for maintenance agree- ments, office supplies, REJIS services, electrical work which must be done, and an upgrading of the computer to increase the disk space. Mr. Ollendorff pointed out that expenditures in this category have gone from $255,217 in 1980-81 to a project- ed $92,700 in 1982-83. Mr. Adams asked Mr. McPhail to provide him with a report on the changes in the computer system which are envisioned for the next few years. In response to Mr. Adams, Mr. Ollendorff said that a reserve fund was not being built up for adding on or replacing parts of the system which become obsolete. It was noted that REJIS was supposed to be keeping up technology and state of the art changes. Mayor Mooney asked that all councilmembers be provided with a copy of the report Mr. Adams requested. Mr. Lieberman asked that it be prepared in such a way that it could lead into a discussion about a reserve or replacement fund. Mr. Ollendorff asked that the Council meeting with him in executive session,follow- ing adjournment, for the purpose of discussing personnel matters.
