meeting. Mayor Meier so moved, it was <br /> seconded and the motion carried unanimously. <br /> PUBLIC COMMENTS None. <br /> RAT BATA - LIQUOR It was determined that the application was in <br /> LICENSE APPLICATION order. Meier moved and Fauson seconded that the <br /> public hearing be set for February 5, 1985. <br /> It was determined that this was a new license under <br /> new ownership, not an additional license as it is <br /> illegal under state law for one individual to <br /> have two liquor licenses. Motion carried unani- <br /> mously. <br /> PROPOSED BUDGET Hundley discussed the memo concerning proposed <br /> REDUCTIONS budget reductions for 1985 in the amount of <br /> $271 , 170.00. In discussions. it was determined <br /> that the additional police position would not be <br /> filled until 1986. Services in Community Services <br /> and public works departments were concerns of <br /> council. Hundley maintained that, after lengthy <br /> discussions with all department heads, that 1985 <br /> service levels would not bt reduced from 1984 <br /> levels. <br /> Hundley proposed that council authorize the <br /> preparation of a resolution amending the 1985 <br /> budget with this resolution showing proposed line <br /> item budget reductions. Documents prepared <br /> for discussion this evening described general <br /> areas of cuts and their respective impacts. <br /> Hundley pointed out the proposed reductions will <br /> make up for the anticipated, yet unrealized, <br /> carry over of 1984 funds, and the $62 ,000- <br /> $87,000 anticipated short fall in 1984 revenues. <br /> Hundley felt it would be prudent to <br /> make cuts based on earlier figures showing a <br /> greater deficit thus allowing more flexibility <br /> in 1985 should problems arise. These figures <br /> would also allow for the payback to the Tree Fund <br /> in 1985. Fauson moved that Mayor and Council <br /> consider a cutback in their salaries. The motion <br /> was seconded and discussions determined that <br /> council felt their small wage was justified and the <br /> cut would not affect the budget enough to warrant <br /> approval of Fauson 's proposal. It was also <br /> determined that the council 's wages are set by <br /> ordinance and could not be increased nor decreased <br /> within a councilperson's term of office. <br /> 2 <br />
