City Council <br />Meeting Minutes <br />September 27, 2016 <br />Page 6 of 6 <br />Councilmember Leh stated the priority list includes a number of new positions and he is <br />not convinced all are justified. He shares the concern about long-term costs. He stated <br />he appreciates the level of work we get from staff. He noted there is little excess <br />capacity in staff, we do run lean and he thanked staff for the work we get for the amount <br />we spend. <br />Regarding the living wage question, Councilmember Keany stated a great many of the <br />City's entry level positions (seasonal staff, camp counselors, lifeguards) go to people <br />who may still live with their parents. These are entry level positions and these staff <br />members aren't likely to be trying to support a family or live independently. He stated <br />the Council will need to consider this issue very carefully. <br />Mayor Pro Tem Lipton noted the budget discussion will continue October 4. He thanked <br />staff for the work on the budget. <br />COUNCIL COMMENTS, COMMITTEE REPORTS, AND IDENTIFICATION OF <br />FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS <br />None. <br />ADJOURN <br />MOTION: Mayor Pro Tem Lipton moved for adjournment, seconded by Councilmember <br />Leh.
