A
For
conversation
is
the
FY
2021
budget
review.
I
know
staff
has
been
working
hard
and,
of
course,
and
these
unprecedented
times
planning
is
even
even
takes
a
lot
more
of
examination
and
that
and
we're
going
to
continue
our
our
budget
review
this
time
so
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
our
city
manager,
mr.
store
beanball
Stewart.
Thank
you.
B
Pleasure
to
discuss
this
year's
budget
third
budget
I've
just
had
the
privilege
of
working
with
Council
on
just
a
couple
of
highlights.
Before
we
kind
of
dive
in,
we
are
recommending
a
general
fund
budget
with
no
military
increase.
Millage
will
stay
at
62
Mills
as
it's
been
since
2012,
and
we
have
not
had
a
military
increase
since
1988.
B
We
are
not
recommending
any
rate
increases
for
solid
waste
or
storm
water.
At
this
point
in
time,
we
believe
we
can
accomplish
in
those
departments
what
is
needed
based
on
the
current
rates.
Now,
in
keeping
with
the
council,
ordered
rate
study
we
had
done
several
years
ago.
We
are
recommending
a
3%
water
rate
increase
that
will
provide
a
funding
base
for
the
new
water
plan
as
well
as
can
allow
us
to
continue
operating
equality,
keeping
up
with
the
cost
of
operating
our
water
utility,
and
we
are
also
recommending
a
sewer
increase.
B
This
is
related
to
the
1820
Public
Service
Authority.
As
you
know,
we
belong
to
a
regional,
Sewer
Authority,
where
we
send
our
sewer
and
the
sewer
the
physical
plant
was
built
in
the
late
1970s
and
last
year
they
completed
a
40
million
dollar
upgrade
and
renovation
of
the
facility
and
as
one
of
the
partners,
they
passed
the
cost
on
to
us
and
there's
an
additional
180
thousand
dollar
charge
as
part
of
their
debt
service,
that
they
are
passing
on
to
us
that
we
have
to
pay
and
it
has
been
over
the
last
five
pre.
B
This
predates
this
council,
but
this,
but
this
council,
as
well
as
prior
councils,
have
historically
passed.
Those
rate
increases
from
the
Public
Service
authority
for
sewer
for
the
sewer
work
to
the
customers,
so
these
recommended
rate
increases.
Should
council
passed
them?
The
average
residential
customer,
which
we
identify
an
average
residential
customer
as
an
indoor
as
a
household
or
is
a
a
property
that
uses
800
cubic
feet
of
water
a
month
will
see
their
bill
go
up
about
a
dollar
48.
B
We
would
like
to
bring
great
increases.
Those
have
to
be
done
separately.
They
are
not
part
of
the
budget
ordinance
and
we
would
recommend
that
the
rate
increased
has
brought
the
first
reading
at
the
May
11th
meeting,
with
a
subsequent
second
reading
in
June
with
them
going
into
effect,
July
1st,
so
I
will
say
for
a
minute,
certainly
until
about
eight
weeks
ago.
We
believe
this
budget
process
was
going
to
be
a
kind
of
an
average
budget
year
in
terms
of
preparation
for
presentation
to
Council
in
terms
of
revenues
and
expenditures.
B
While
we
did
not
expect
to
have
certainly
a
windfall
increase
in
revenues,
we
felt
like
we
were
on
somewhat
of
an
upward
tick
in
all
funds,
and
certainly
the
Cova
19
pandemic,
which
hit
us
in
mid-march
has
caused
us
to
rethink
that
to
some
degree.
However,
in
the
general
fund,
we
do
believe
there
will
be
some
some
revenue
declines
due
to
Kovan
19
and
we've
accounted
for
that
somewhat
in
business
license
reductions,
we've
kept
personal
property
tax
revenue,
which
is
primary
almost
entirely
funded
via
Motor
Vehicles.
B
B
That
does
give
us
a
little
bit
of
optimism
and
also
franchise
fees
collected
from
our
electric
utilities.
Those
fees
they
cut
us
a
check
both
they
can.
Electric,
which
is
a
very
modest
amount
compared
to
Dominion
that
is
based
on
what
they
build,
is
not
what
they
collect.
So
again,
that
is,
people
are
going
to
continue
to
use
electricity
and
again,
that
is,
we
believe,
will
be
around
a
million
for
us.
B
The
chief
is
present,
he's
sitting
more
than
six
feet
from
me
in
this
room,
but
I,
don't
believe,
he's
he's
on
camera,
but
he's
right
there,
and
but
we
funded
the
public
safety,
the
capital,
some
of
their
capital
requests,
were.
We
bought
Toughbook
computers
for
the
patrol
public
safety
patrol
cars
in
20,
beginning
in
2010
running
through
about
2012,
and
those
are
coming
up
for
some
of
those
are
coming
up
for
replacement.
We
have
money
left
over
in
capital
project
sales
tax
three.
This
was
the
money
that
voters
passed
in
2010.
B
We
have
the
cash
on
hand
and
we
are
gonna
recommend
to
bring
to
council
those
replacement
recommendations
through
that
fund
saying
with
the
firing
range
on
DuPont
Avenue.
As
you
know,
public's
are,
as
you
probably
know,
Public
Safety
has
a
firing
range
on
DuPont
Avenue.
They
asked
for
money
in
the
budget
to
do
some
renovations
and
repairs
to
that
and
again
there
is
money
for
the
firing
range
that
doe
from
capital
project
sales
tax.
Three
that
we
can
find.
B
So
you
may
see
in
the
general
fund
where
it
may
look
like
we're,
not
funding
public
safety,
which
I
know.
This
council's
been
very
clear
that
you
want
to
see
public
safety
needs
and
so
forth
funded,
and
we
are
doing
so.
The
budget
does
not
have
a
cost
of
living
raised
in
the
budget.
I
think
we
went
back
over
20
years
and
this
will
be
the
first
time
and
our
records
go
back
to
about
1998
when
we
kept
up
with
this,
that
we're
not
good
doing
any
sort
of
cost
of
living.
B
However,
due
to
council's
great
foresight
and
budget
acumen
that
you
had
last
year
with
carry
forward
money,
we
set
aside
funds
for
our
comp
plan
that
2%
compensation
plan
increase
for
all
employees.
So
we
can.
That
was
about
two-thirds
of
what
we
needed.
So
we
are
going
to
be
able
to
fund
a
2%
compensation
plan
increase
for
employees
that
they
will
receive
at
the
time
that
they
have
their
performance
evaluation
done
in
the
fiscal
year
between
July
1,
2020
and
June
30
21.
B
Know
they
have
to
do
you
have
a,
but
we
have
an
evaluation
instrument
that
performance
evaluation
instrument
with
and
everybody
gets
evaluated
on
the
same
ten
criteria,
then,
depending
on
the
job
or
where
there's
they
Excel
or
need
improvement
or
optional
areas
that
you
want
them
to
do,
and
if
you
it's
a
one
through
five
five,
it's.
What
is
perfect,
one
is
reg.
B
So
if
you
score
at
least
a
3.0,
you
get
a
comp
plan
increase
you
get
overwhelming
majority
of
employees
score
that
the
rationale
is
if
they're,
if
they're
substantially
below
average
or
extreme,
or
they
don't
really
make
it
that
far
in
the
organization
they
tend,
they
don't
make
the
comp
plan,
I,
have
to
say
counsels
vision.
Several
years
ago
to
begin,
the
comp
plan
has
been
very
helpful
because
it
is
allowed.
It
has
helped
us
I
believe
with
employee
morale
and
retention
of
the
employees,
so
it
gives
them
incentive
to
perform.
B
So
again,
due
to
your
your
foresight,
that
has
been
very
helpful.
Some
of
the
items
in
the
budget
I
want
to
highlight
before
we
get
into
your
questions
are
we
are
absorbing
the
two
traffic
officers
you
may
remember
three
fiscal
years
ago
you
got
a
grant
from
the
State
Department
of
Public
Safety,
to
which,
which
is
the
the
umbrella
agency,
that
the
Highway
Patrol
is
in
to
fund
to
traffic
officers.
B
The
grant
terminates
September
30th,
so
for
the
remaining
portions
of
the
year,
we
are
funding
that
out
of
our
own
budget
appropriation,
we
do
have
full
fiscal
year.
Funding
of
the
crime.
Analyst
position
that
council
added
when
we
did
carry
forward
in
August
of
2019
also
were
funding
new
equipment,
including
fire,
our
markers
to
outfit
new
patrol
vehicles,
and
we
are
funding
service
weapons,
not
provide
new
service
locks
for
all
officers,
I
believe
the
chief
may
have,
but
she
briefed
us
on
that.
B
Not
long
ago,
I
noted
the
some
of
the
items
not
included,
but
we
do
have
I
do
briefly
want
to
mention
the
to
fund
hardest-hit.
We
believe
will
be
our
discretionary,
so-called
discretionary
spending
funds
and
they
it
by
discretionary.
Those
are
paid
for
by
the
users,
not
discretionary.
At
the
cities,
from
the
city's
view
in
terms
of
how
we
spend
it,
the
accommodation
and
the
hospitality
tax,
we
believe,
will
take
a
hit
in
the
short
term
as
the
as
the
country
adjusts
to
a
new
normal
with
the
pandemic,
the
open
19
pandemic.
B
We
have
cut
those
budgets
for
that
20
percent
in
each
hour,
making
those
allowances
one
one
of
the
things
we
aren't
taking
into
it
right
now.
If
we
sit
here
today,
there's
going
to
be
two
masters
golf
tournaments
in
fiscal
year
2021,
but
we
are
only
assuming
there's
going
to
be
one.
If
there's
a
second
masters
tournament,
we
we'll
probably
see
a
name
dissipated,
revenue
from
and
accommodations
tax.
B
If
we
do,
if
things
do
get
back
to
normal
in
those
funds,
we
will
come
to
Council
midway
through
the
year
sometime,
December
January
after
the
holidays,
and
request
a
budget
adjustment
to
reflect
that,
because
there
are
certainly
some
things
that
council
wants
that
we
would
like
to
so
that
those
are
my
opening
remarks
for
the
budget.
We
do
have
the
privilege
of
having
our
staff.
Our
department
heads
here,
I
know.
B
B
The
municipal
development
commission,
that
is
one
of
their
charges,
is
bringing
forth
money.
I
think
was
very
clear.
The
expectation
of
this
board
will
be
funding
a
lot
of
this
city.
The
city
will
serve
as
a
backstop,
and
you
may
remember
also
last
year
the
edge
we
sat
here.
A
year
ago,
April
of
2019,
we
only
funded
a
certain
amount
of
money,
kaname
development
and,
as
we
close
the
books,
we
added
more
money
to
it.
B
Now
we
had
a
good
presentation
by
Kim
wheat
last
week,
our
finance
director,
to
give
us
kind
of
an
idea,
a
best-guess
estimate
of
what
our
carry-forward
money
will
be
and
we
believe
there
could
be
an
opportunity
to
add
to
economic
development.
But,
as
we
sit
here
in
April
to
present
you
a
balanced
budget
without
raising
millage
and
meeting
the
obligations
of
the
end,
the
expectations
council
and
our
citizens
when
did
that
amount.
So
those
are
my
comments.
So
thank
you
for
giving
me
the
floor
and
letting
me
prattle
on
for
quite
a
while.
D
B
E
B
Looking
at
total,
less
than
twenty
dollars
a
year
on
the
bill
and
again
I
would
like
those
that
are
viewing
this.
As
you
may
remember,
our
utilities
are
enterprise
funds
and
they
are
expected
to
pay
them
from
what
they
they
do
not
get.
Funding
from
the
general
fund
through
tax
money,
it
is
user
fee
generated.
B
So
again
councils
been
clear
that
we
need
to
do
when
we
are
given
costs
by
our
partners.
In
this
case
the
county.
We
bring
to
council
that
and
let
council
decide,
do
we
pass
it
on
to
the
customers
or
do
we
absorb
it
to
the
do
we
absorb
it
and
again
the
county,
the
we
pay
the
county,
several
million
dollars
a
year
to
process
our
sewers,
our
sewer
affluent,
and
we
they
are
passing
on
another
one
hundred
eighty
thousand
extra
dollars
in
cost.
E
B
Correct
that
is
so
true,
Councilwoman
braless
does
give
us
the
a
baseline
for
water
rates
to
help
us,
as
we
begin
the
process
of
replacing
our
water
plant
planning
that
foundation
to
finance,
because
it's
going
to
be
a
multi
tens
of
millions
of
dollars
endeavor
and
while
we
would
love
to
be
able
to
pay
cash,
we
will
have
to
find
we
will
be
able
to
pay
some.
But
we
like
finance
a
large
portion
of
that
amount
as
well.
A
B
We
do
have
all
the
department
heads
here.
I
was.
Let
me
let
me
just
briefly
tell
you
kind
of
the
format
I
know.
Last
year
we
had
a.
We
had
eight
budget
meetings
between
March
and
June,
and
certainly
we
are
more
than
willing
to
meet
as
often
as
you
want,
but
I
got
the
impression
of
my
from
my
conversations
with
you
as
a
group
and
privately
it
I
believed
he
wanted.
B
You
maybe
wanted
to
try
a
different
approach
so
at
a
minimum,
here's
what
I
would
like
to
propose.
We
will
have
this
certain
budget
workshop.
We
will
have
another
budget
work
session
before
our
May
11th
council
meeting.
We
would
like
to
have
in
order
to
stay
on
schedule
with
the
budget
we
would
like
to
have
in
our
May
11th
council
meeting
first
reading
of
the
millage
rate,
the
budget
and
the
water
and
sewer
rate
increases,
and
then
that
gives
us
at
least
a
month,
if
not
longer
to
have
additional
meetings.
B
You
council
feel
like
we
need
to
additional
work,
meet
work
sessions
to
for
questions,
take
in
more
comments
and
have
a
second
reading.
As
early
as
the
1st
June
meeting
and
I'm
June,
8th
I,
believe
would
be
the
date
or
have
it
by
certainly
second
reading,
June
22nd,
which
is
our
last
scheduled
meeting
before
the
new
fiscal
year,
starts,
so
that's
kind
of
the
what
I
envision
during
this
budget
process
we've
had.
B
F
B
B
For
the
no,
it
does
not
Councilman
walls
and
again
one
of
the
things
our
staffs
gonna,
I'm
gonna,
reiterate
to
staff
we're
doing
it
now,
as
we
close
out
the
books
for
this
fiscal
year
and
base
start
next
fiscal
year.
This
is
not
government.
Has
a
reputation
sometimes
deserves
sometimes
unfair
of
at
the
end
of
the
fiscal
year.
You
if
you've
got
$100
left
in
a
bucket.
You
spend
it
and
by
the
wickets.
F
C
B
Next
fiscal
year
we
will
instruct
staff,
certainly
if
you
need
something
if
it's
a
key
item
that
you've
been
waiting
on,
but
it's
not
a
license
with
a
new
budget
year
to
just
blow
your
budget.
We
need
to
weigh
and
see
through
this
coded
pandemic,
but
we
do
believe
based
on
information
from
the
Municipal
Association.
Talking
to
you
know,
looking
at
trends
in
the
past,
we
were
very
cautious,
but
we
were
somewhat
optimistic
because
the
this
is
not
as
a
standard
recession
we're
entering.
F
Well,
that's
my
question:
I
mean
when
we
started
this,
we
didn't
realize
we
were
going
in
this
pandemic.
We
didn't
realize
how
hard
it
was
going
to
hit
us
and
I.
Don't
think
we're
gonna
know
for
a
few
months,
how
hard
it's
gonna
hit
us,
because
it's
gonna
take
a
while
to
get
the
distant.
You
know
the
couple
weeks
ago,
Washington
Post
say
2100,
minister
powders
were
trouble
already
and
they
expected
more
to
happen.
I
hope
that
you're
a
hundred
percent
right
now
our
picture
is
as
good-looking
as
you
say.
F
It
is
but
I'd
rather
err
on
the
side
of
being
cautious
and
conservative
law.
This
I
have
we
need
to
budget
down
to
ten
twenty
percent
overall
budget
and
be
prepared
for
something
worse,
because
we've
got
twenty
six
million
people
in
unemployment,
30
million
jobs
gone
open
up
the
economy
tomorrow,
we're
not
going
to
get
this
twenty
six
million
jobs
back
for
a
long
long
time,
and
that
means
these
people
are
unemployed,
are
not
gonna,
be
able
to
pay
their
rents.
F
F
Don't
think
we
have
a
grasp
on
it
from
financial
point
I
know
the
banks
are
preparing
in
a
lot
of
ways
for
things,
knowing
that
something's
gonna
happen
or
expecting
it
to
and
preparing
for
the
worst,
rather
than
the
best.
So
I
think
our
overall
budget
should
be
brought
down,
20
percent
to
be
prepared
for
what
could
happen.
We
can
always
amend
it
up,
but
I
don't
want
to
have
to
go
to
the
well
and
take
all
the
money
we've
saved
just
to
get
by
and
then
be
out
of
money.
F
So
that's
just
a
couple
of
thoughts
on
it.
I
think
that
we
should
not
be
spending
money
on
capital
projects
or
construction
or
anything
anything
that
we
can
take
out
easily
or
don't
need
or
put
off
for
a
little
while
we
should
be
doing
that
now
to
be
prepared
for
what's
gonna
happen,
six
twelve
months
from
now,
just
my
thoughts.
F
B
If
you
add
in
all
our
funds,
we
do
our
adjusted
budget
for
this
current
fiscal
year.
We're
in
is
about
sixty
two
and
a
half
million,
and
this
one's
about
sixty
million
nine
hundred.
So
it
is
down
some
a
lot
of
it
is
transfers.
A
fair
amount
is
depreciation
transfers
to
replace
equipment,
so
the
cash
is
on
hand
certain
for
a
lot
of
the
capital
equipment,
certainly.
B
The
the
revenues
coming
in
again
property
tax,
even
through
even
through
the
worst
of
the
recession,
the
the
obviously
I
didn't
go
back
to
the
Great
Depression
in
the
20s,
only
went
back
to
1990,
but
the
property
tax
do
tend
to
be
stable.
If
owners
can't
pay
the
taxes
that
we
do
collect
the
money
eventually
and
it
is
canvas
revenue
in
the
year
so
again
it
is.
It
is
a
challenge
and
I
think
we're
fortunate
you're
right.
I
saw
the
same
Washington
Post
article
I,
have
to
say
I.
B
Think
our
the
city
of
Aitkin
historically
has
managed
our
finances
a
lot
better
than
most
know.
Geo
debt
we've
got
some
enterprise
fund
debt
for
our
sewer
and
water.
We
have
no
debt
tied
to
our
hospitality
tax
or
our
for
our
accommodations
tax,
long-term
debt
and
the
we
have
on
the
Public.
Safety
Building
comes
from
what
we
franchise
fees
paid
by
the
electric
utilities
that
they
pay
based
on
use,
not
collections.
So
again,
I
think
it's
a
fair
point.
What
you're
saying,
because
you're
right
I,
don't
know
anybody
I've
not
spoken!
G
B
E
B
E
B
Am
very
curious
to
see
hospitality
tax
revenues,
for
example,
I
think
accommodations
tax
revenue,
which
is
a
lot
smaller
than
hospitality,
is
going
to
be
quite
down.
It's
all
hotel,
yours,
nor
on
a
normal
day
in
Aitkin
occupancies,
forty
to
fifty
percent,
that's
with
no
special
events
going
on
and
it's
well
below,
15%
at
hotel
accommodation,
hospitality
tax,
just
looking
at
some
receipts.
B
E
Right,
I
think
all
the
drive-through
restaurants
that
have
that
already
had
that
ability
have
not
been
obviously
impacted
like
to
go
in
and
sit
down,
because
a
majority
of
their
business
was
already
drive-through
and
so
I,
just
you
know
as
we
go
forward,
we're
gonna
have
to
just
keep
keeping
an
eye
on
that
and
maybe
doing
things
that
we
adjust
as
we
go
along.
You
know
absolutely.
B
Well,
again,
staff
we
can
look
at
some
scenarios
for
our
next
work
session,
where
we
could
show
council
did.
These
are
some
things
to
consider
and
potentially
give
you
that
approach,
but
I
do
think
we
re
starting
so
early
that
we
will
have
an
idea
of
these
revenues
before
we
have
to
put
a
reading
on
a
budget.
I
think.
A
A
Doesn't
that
does
not
affect
our
general
fund,
those
those
two
revenue
sources
are
held
outside
the
general
fund,
so
it
does
not
affect
our
millage
or
the
budget
that
we're
looking
at
for
this
work
session.
Something
obviously
we're
all
watching,
but
a
lot
of
times
I
see
is
from
mostly
one-time
expenditures
and
tightening,
so
so
I
mean
I.
Think
I
mean
I.
Look
through
this
budget,
I
mean
you
gave
it
to
us.
It
is
a
conservative
budget.
A
Any
lending
that
we
have
that
we
have
as
a
city
is,
has
a
revenue
stream,
for
example,
the
finding
the
I'm
sorry
the
the
charge
on
the
on
the
letter.
What
does
that
store
the
franchise
fee?
Excuse
me,
franchise,
fee,
I,
I,
think
I,
think
it's
a
responsible
budget
and
so
I
mean
I'm
all
for
if
we
look
through,
we
see
places
that
we
can.
We
can
save
I
mean
initially
I
would
say.
If
there's
anything,
I
would
look
at
whatever
we
have,
because
we're
we're
a
city
that
funds
depreciation.
A
B
Another
very
good
point
with
councilman
waltz
and
the
where
I
am
concerned.
We
don't
budget
for
it
in
that
it's
our
capital
project
sales
tax
round.
For
now,
let
me
speak
for
round
three
and
round
two.
Those
monies
are
collected.
The
cash
is
on
hand,
drawing
interest,
but
the
current
one
percent
round,
four
that
we
borrowed
ahead
and
are
paying
ourselves
back.
I
agree.
C
D
B
Those
time
those
kind
of
so-called
big-box
stores
which
are
viewed
as
the
central
businesses
right,
those
account
in
an
average
year
for
about
18
to
20
percent
of
our
business,
license
revenue,
so
I
suspect
they
will
take
on
a
greater
percentage
of
the
revenue
we
collect.
Just
by
the
fact
they
were
open
for
a
full
12
months
selling
a
full,
pretty
much
a
full
inventory.
Their
full
inventory
so
I
think
we'll
see
some
spinoff
from
that.
Well,
will
it
be
enough
to
make
up
for
what
the
so-called
non-essential
businesses
were
paying?
B
It
remains
to
be
seen,
but
that
we
did
account
for
some
modest
decline
of
business,
license
receipts
and
remember.
Business
licenses
that
are
going
to
be
paid
this
year
are
going
to
be
based
on
gross
revenue
from
last
calendar
year,
2019,
so
that's
pre-pandemic,
so
those
businesses
that
are
able
to
pay
it'll
be
based
on
2019
pandemic,
okay
calendar
year,
where
we
will
see
a
more
pronounced
effect.
I
do
believe
it's
gonna
be
when
we
were
sitting
in
here
a
year
from
now
all.
G
I
just
wanted
to
reiterate
what
mayor
Austin
was
referring
to
as
far
as
the
various
funds
and
I
just
wanted
to
add
that
as
we're
discussing
this
particular
budget
topic
on
sewer
and
water
and
all
those
I
just
wanted
to
for
public
record,
to
reiterate
that
those
are
Enterprise
funds
and
those
are
self
sufficient.
Just
to
add
on
to
what
mayor
husband
was
referring
to
so
those
funds
you
know
run
on
their
own
and
and
like
mayor
husband,
mentioned
they're
not
coming
out
of
the
general
fund
in
revenues.
C
D
They
have
been
very
conservative
and
I
found
that
it's
been
City
Council
members
that
have
said
and
I'm
included
with
this
tell
us
what
else
you
need,
because
we
want
to
make
sure
that
you
are
equipped
with
the
things
that
you
need
to
be
successful
with
your
departments.
So
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
for
being
so
responsible.
Your
recommendations
to
us
as
a
council,
money.
C
B
You
I
want
to
compliment
staff
and
thank
you
counsel
for
giving
us
the
opportunity
to
present
those
that's
just
for
information,
and
that's
not
my
intention
to
have
a
formal
presentation,
but
we
we
do
take
pride
in
treating
this
running
and
treating
it
like.
It
is
our
household
money,
but
the
understand
it's
kind
of
for
the
greater
greater
good
of
the
city
but
and
I
appreciate
and
salute
my
the
department
heads
here.
C
E
Well
and
when
we
had
our
auditors
in
you
know
they
come
in
and
I'm
quite
a
strong
position.
The
city
was
in,
which
is
a
great
thing.
We
started
into
this
in
a
very
strong
position,
so
that
is
some
solace
as
we
go
forward
and
oh,
this
was
great
in
the
fact
that
I
think
councilman
moulds
asked
about
the
impact
of
the
masters.
Wasn't
wasn't
it
mm-hmm?
You
had
down
here
that
it
was
a
83,000
total.
That's.
B
Direct
impact
we
can
trace,
we
did
ask
councilman,
Councilwoman,
Brolin
and
I
know
it
was
based
on
councilman
Waltz's
question.
We
checked
with
the
Chamber
of
Commerce
and
some
other
folks
will
Williams
is
group,
but
nobody
had
a
number
for
a
canned
believe
it
or
not.
For
total
impact.
I
thought
I've
seen
a
number
but
hands
on
it.
Yeah
I
imagined
it,
but
we
were
able
to
do
some
rudimentary
based
on
April
is
usually
the
healthiest
month,
understandably
for
hospitality
and
accommodation
facts
and
is
probably
almost
totally
due
to
the
Masters
right.
B
A
A
A
B
First
reading
of
the
budget
may
11th
and
briefing
we
I
would
like
to
recommend
we
stick
to.
That
is
we
have
to
advertise.
Second,
we
have
to
advertise
second
reading
30
days
ahead
of
time,
so
first
reading,
of
course,
we
can
amend
the
budget
make
as
many
changes
or
as
few
as
you
want
between
first
and
second
reading,
but
we
will
have
first
reading
of
the
budget
in
the
millage
rate,
maybe
11
second
reading.
A
I
would
suggest
we
take
a
recess
or
conclude
our
work
session
and
maybe
come
back
in
five.
Okay,
we
advertise
we
can.
We
can
start
our
meeting
at
after
this
one,
but
I
think
everyone
would
probably
like
a
at
least
maybe
a
10-minute
recess.
That
would
be
all
right
with
everybody,
its
its
6:35,
so
maybe
6:45.
We
come
back
to
start
our
meeting.
