3'8~TUESDAY, AUGUST 22, 1995 <br /> Council considered appropriating $20,369 to the Sheriff's FY 95-96 <br /> budget for part-time employees. This funding was omitted during budget <br /> preparation for FY 95-96. Mr. Reynolds recommended Council appropriate <br /> these funds from the General Fund Unexpended Fund Balance. In response <br /> to a question from Councilman Teague, Mr. Reynolds stated an update <br /> would be provided to Council in November after receipt of the FY 94-95 <br /> City Audit of revised pro3ected unexpended fund balances as of June 30, <br /> <br />1996. <br /> <br />Council considered appropriating $68,500 from the Meals Tax Fund <br />Unexpended Fund Balance to the School Division's FY 95-96 budget for <br />professional services for the Middle School Project. In response to a <br />question from Councilman Teague, Mr. Reynolds stated the original <br />project cost would not be increased as a result of this appropriation. <br />The Meals Tax Fund will be reimbursed by revenues of the IDA bond issue <br />approved for this project, as the bond proceeds are currently invested <br /> <br />and are earning interest. Mayor Adams suggested the City <br /> <br />Administration prepare a report on the financial status of the Middle <br />School Pro3ect, reviewing the total contract price and funding plan. <br />Upon motion, duly seconded and by unanimous vote, Council approved the <br />appropriation as requested. <br /> <br />Council considered awarding a contract for the Phase I Needs Assessment <br />of the Radio Communications System Study. Mr. Reynolds and Purchasing <br />Agent J. Gary Via explained that due to new Federal Communications <br />Commission regulations, the City and County's radio systems would need <br />to be upgraded over a period of time. The proposed study would be a <br />joint effort between the City and County. The Henry County Board of <br />Supervisors previously approved a contract between the County and RAM <br /> <br /> <br />
