Ms. Bridges called the regular Board meeting to order at 2:40 pm. The minutes from the
meetings of 12/17 and 1/21 were approved, moved by Mr. Baker, second by Mr. Hermis.
Cindy O'Brien from Finance reviewed the Treasurers Report. She reported revenues are up
439,325 and 51%of the budget has been expended which is in line. Ms. Bridges asked if all the
invoices for Street lighting have been paid and will all the money be used. Ms. Eldridge stated all
the bills had been paid and the remaining encumbered will not be spent. Mr. Baker, second by
Mr. Hermis, approved the Treasurers Report on a motion.
Mario Tapia reviewed the FY 0304 estimated expenditures and the proposed FY 0405 budget.
The budget reflects a 3% increase in revenue, a 15% increase in health insurance in 0405; other
years out reflect only a 10% increase. Ms. Bridges stated the 0607 ending fund balance is not a
healthy situation to take to the voters for renewal of the district and the Board needs to consider
what we can do to improve the ending fund balance.
Mr. Tapia mentioned the additional loss of Title V funding for the Juvenile Court,which is
$266,068. The issue of where these funds will come from has not been resolved. Mark
McDaniel stated we have to find alternative funding for the court. The General Fund budget is
tighter than the Crime Control Budget. He recommended that the Board take the same steps as
in the past in presenting the 5 year plan to the City Council that shows an ending fund balance in
the black..
Keith Rose suggested we consider Homeland Security grants to replace some of our vehicles.
Ms. Bridges asked each Board member to discuss with their City Council rep on where they
stand on the issue of maintaining 50 officers. If there are any other questions, please direct them
to the staff.
Ms. Bridges stated the Board should meet again to discuss the budgets. The Board needs to
know what the plan is in order to have an ending fund balance in the black to carry over into FY
0809 after the election.
The Board voted not to act upon the request for a replacement vehicle, Baker moved, Hermis
second.
Mariah Boone reviewed the Juvenile Assessment Center statistics
The next meeting will be a special budget meeting on March 10, 2004, 2:30 in the Basement of
City Hall SCANNED
The meeting adjourned at 4:00 pm.
