<br />RESOLUTION NO. 3535
<br />- A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COLTON ADOPTING A SUMMARY BUDGET FOR THE CITY
<br />OF COLTON FOR THE FISCAL YEAR COMMENCING JULY 1, 19753, AND ENDING JUNE 30, 1976, INCLUDING TABLE
<br />OF ORGANIZATION.
<br />Budget
<br />Police Department Transfer of Funds
<br />Police Chief Phil Elliott stated a new gas pump was authorized for purchase during the 1975-76 budget sessions at a
<br />cost of $475, however, it has been found that the pump is too small for the needs of the department and will not
<br />function.
<br />Chief Elliott advised that a new commercial pump has now been installed, which has also increased the price, however,
<br />the difference should not exceed $600, including labor.
<br />Chief Elliott said in order to balance the accounts, he would recommend the City does not hire a Police Service
<br />Officer until October 1, 1975, which would effect a saving of approximately $600, and transfer these funds from the
<br />Temporary Salaries Account to the Capital Improvement Account.
<br />Moved by Councilman Hayes, seconded by Councilwoman Spragins, authorizing the transfer of $600 from the Temporary
<br />Salaries Account to the Capital Improvements Account of the Police Department Budget for the purchase of a commercial
<br />gas pump. Unanimous vote.
<br />Police Department Transfer of Funds
<br />Police Chief Elliott referred to his memorandum dated September 2, 1975, regarding the purchase of two transcribers
<br />for the Police Department, at an approved budgeted cost of $1,100.
<br />Chief Elliott explained it has been found the trouble is not with the transcribers, but with the recorders, and he
<br />would therefore recommend the following:
<br />The City enter into a lease agreement with IBM on a 30 month contract for two transcribers and two recorders. An
<br />eight month lease contract, from November 1975 to June 1976, would be $1,232. A trade-in allowance for two recorders
<br />and control devices and one transcriber would be $320, making the total cost of the rental for an eight month period
<br />$912. An additional cost to convert two City owned transcribers to the new model system would be $120, making a
<br />total cost of the project $1,032.
<br />Chief Elliott advised the annual cost for the system for the duration of the contract would be $1,848 per year. At
<br />the conclusion of the contract the City can then purchase the equipment and receive credit in the amount of 65% of
<br />the amount paid,to be applied to the purchase price.
<br />Chief Elliott concluded Staff is requesting a transfer of funds in the amount of $1,100 from the Capital Outlay
<br />Account to the Equipment Rental Account of the Police Department Budget.
<br />Moved by Councilman Hayes, seconded by Councilman Rehrer, authorizing the transfer of funds in the amount of $1,100
<br />from the Capital Outlay Account to the Equipment Rental Account in the Police Department Budget. Vote was unanimous.

<br />Disability Retirement
<br />City Manager Huffaker stated this matter will be discussed in Executive Session later in the meeting.
<br />Budget
<br />Chamber of Commerce
<br />City Manager Huffaker stated the 1975-76 Budget for the Chamber of Commerce was originally $20,000, and was reduced
<br />by the $1,000 donation to Community Promotion for the Miss Softball America Baseball Team, leaving a balance of
<br />$19,000.
<br />Mr. Huffaker advised the Chamber is now requesting a warrant be issued representing the first half of the 1975-76
<br />budgeted funds in the amount of $9,000, which will necessitate minute action by the Council.
<br />Moved by Councilwoman Spragins, seconded by Councilman Hayes, authorizing City to issue warrant to the Chamber of
<br />Commerce in the amount of $9,000, representing first half of budgeted funds for 1975-76 Budget. Unanimous vote.
