COUNCIL BUDGET WORK SHOP
Monday, June 28, 1976
7:30 p.m. at the Village Hall
In attendance: Mayor McIntosh, Councilmen Davis, Condit, and
McLeod
Village Manager, Earl K. Andersen
Village Attorney, William F. Fann, Jr.
Recreation Director, Harold E. Petrey
The first itme to be discussed was in regard to the need for non-resident club
members and the best way to remove the present restrictions on accept-
ing non-resident golf members. Mr. Fann advised that Ordinance No. 356
could be amended to accomplish this by striking, in Section 15-47, - (a) A
non-resident, the words "presently holding a golf membership". Then, the
Council by resolution at any time, can set the fee and define the privileges
of the new category, without affecting present memberships, if that is desired.
The Clerk was directed to advertise reading of this ordinance to be held on
July 6th and July 20th.
The Council suggested that the Village Manager get a membership committee
from the Golf Association. Each application should have four resident
members as sponsor.
Mr. Fann reported, in regard to the shrubbery ordinance, that it would be
written, with Council's agreement, to prohibit maintenance of shrubbery
that impedes pedestrian traffic on walkways and vehicular traffic in alleys,
with violation to be handled in County Court.
Recreation Dept. budget: Mr. Petrey presented a plan for redesigning
walls and rooms at the Community Center to afford more space, at an
estimated cost of $25, 000. 00. The Council agreed to provide $12, 500. 00
in the new budget for this re-construction plus the $10, 000. 00 remaining in
the current budget.
Facilities for the handicapped will also be considered in the construction work.
Salaries: In the salaries proposed in the new budget, the Village Manager
had figured an average 516 raise for fulltime employees, plus the same
longevity as granted the Police Dept. last year. This, however, provided a
15% raise for 20-year employees, which the Council felt was excessive. The
subject is to be continued at another meeting to be held on the next evening,
Tuesday, June 29th, at 7:00 p.m.
The meeting adjourned at 11:15 p.m.
