overall projected increase in revenues of
41/2%; $1,500,000 had been set aside in the
catastrophic fund for emergencies;
vehicle replacement fund; capital
outlays; long term financial planning for
projects such as Orange Park and others

vice levels; sister city alliance with

paration for various negotiations with
several bargaining units, and Council
wanted the nine millimeter semi-automatic
weapons and related training expenses
removed from the labor relations arena
and put in the appropriate category in
the bud§et.
Discussion followed: how the $500,000
economic contingency fund was derived;
the difference between an economic con-
tingency fund and the catastrophic fund;
a community needs assessment; Councilman
Nicolopulos wanted to go through each
Department's budget, and was overruled;
information on the climate for shopping
centers; to add $6,000 to the budget for
the Chamber of Commerce publications;
levels of maintenance, etc.
City Librarian Goodrich gave justifica-
tion to add 20 hours a week of staff time
for children services in teaching good
reading skills to children and their
parents.
Discussion followed: whether this par-
ticular request was to maintain services
or to provide a higher service level;
this would allow maintenance of the cata-
logue collection, and book ordering which
had slid because of the increased
workload; that this would be a new part-
time position of 20 hours a week; poten-
tial of consolidating some part-time
positions to full time positions should
be addressed in a study session in the
fall; look at service levels; why the
schools did not provide reading skills to
students, etc.
Fire Chief Feuerstein justified the
requested new part-time intern position
to do a task of research for the develop-
ment of an implementation plan for hazar-
dous materials legislative mandates, and
write training and policy manuals.

tion was $7,000 for one year; what work

how long it would take for the hazardous
waste and policy manuals to be written;
Vice Mayor Haffey was supportive of the
new position; that there was a large

nesses in the event of fire; how to
fight the chemical fire; that fire
fighting of chemicals was a highly tech-
nical and sophisticated training; that the
