City Council Memorandum
Amending Ordinance 20382 which
Adopted the Corpus Christi
FY 88-89 Budget
Date: September 21, 1988
Recommendation: Amending the FY 88-89 Budget to provide
for: 1) General Fund -- (a) a 3% wage increase for
employees; (b) funds for a second fire academy; (c)
supplementary funds for the Corpus Christi Library.
Background: As I pointed out to the Council in my report on
September 20th, the FY 87-88 General Fund closing balance
exceeded the estimated closing balance for the year. This
closing balance automatically becomes part of the FY 88-89
beginning balance. It is my recommendation that
approximately one half of this additional balance of $3.2
million be used to fund an employee wage increase in the
General Fund.
In addition to the wage increase for the General Fund, it is
recommended that the following amounts be utilized from the
increased FY 88-89 General fund unappropriated beginning
balance: $160,000 for the execution of a second fire
academy; and $75,000 for the Corpus Christi Library.
Conclusion: This amendment to the Budget Appropriation
Ordinance should be approved in order to carry out those
high priority objectives which have been previously
indicated by the City Council.
