LIBRARY BUDGET:
Under Personal Services the new position of Assistant
Librarian was discussed. In regard to the time frame for
this position Miss Esper explained that the person was
needed prior to the proposed addition to handle the new
books, plan and implement new programs.
Capital Outlay - proposed new addition tentatively accepted.
SPECIAL ITEMS - Police Budget:
The Chief of Police had requested immediate consider-
ation of a communications console for the new Police
Dept. addition so that the building can be adapted to
provide for this equipment, cost $30,229.00. No action
was necessary as Chief Fletcher was not convinced at
this time that the Motorola Console was the best piece
of equipment for their needs.
Recreation Department Budget:
Athletic Director - fulltime position requested to that
this person can be recruited prior to the fall season.
A commitment was made on this position as follows:
Councilmen Lodge, Spahn and Mayor O'Connor were in
favor of a fulltime A.D. Mrs. Jensen and Mr. Cuson
were not without other consideration. Mr. Cuson felt
that a trade-off should be made by cutting personnel
hours at the Community Center.
