Er.
Excuse

to
the
policy
agenda
the
subject
matter.
This
meeting
is
discussed
the
fiscal
year
budget,
20,
20,
21.
C
C
Ready
for
me,
mr
president,
I've
given
you
three
salt
sections
of
data
that
in
an
hour
before
1
30,
it's
gonna,
be
a
whole
lot
to
cover
the
the
whole
nine
yards,
but
it's
gonna
be.
We
have
a
group
that'll
help
us
cover
any
ground
that
you
want
to,
but
I
thought
it
would
be
proper.
The
first
page
here
is
sort
of
a
summary
of
where
we
are
to
date
through
period
11.
C
C
Some
hits
this
year
due
to
coving
and
we've
recovered
some
things
in
a
way
we've.
You
know
the
recovery
monies
that
we
got
from
bp
from
halliburton
is
buried
in
in
those
revenues.
C
Now,
if
you
look
at
the
expense
and
revenues
we
we
actually
started
the
year
with
more
expenses
in
revenue,
so
we
would
have
naturally
worked
our
way
down
as
far
as
year-to-date
gain
a
loss.
So
that
number
that
you
see
in
gain
a
loss
just
without
those
expenses
would
have
been
four
million
dollars.
You
know
we
would
have
more
expenses
than
revenue
and
therefore
driving
that
figure
down
now
we've
absorbed
some
things
and
we've
done
some
things
to
put
the
brakes
on.
In
that
presentation
we
did.
C
A
few
weeks
ago
we
looked
at
the
put
the
brakes
on
on
spending.
We
eliminated
some
of
the
vacancies
and
that
you
know
stopped.
You
know
the
bleeding
so
to
speak,
of
about
2.2
million,
maybe
1.7
in
revenue
are
in
personnel
expenses
and
the
rest
was
stopping
the
the
purchasing
of
things,
and
so
we
adjusted
that
budget
and
then
again
with
the
recovery
of
the
the
halliburton,
which
was
about
a
million
and
then
a
couple
hundred
thousand
dollars
with
the
utility
refund
that
we
had.
C
So
it
puts
us
in
a
pretty
good
situation.
I'm
getting
to
all
of
this
because
we
need
to
protect
in
the
budget.
What's
coming
up
is
where
we're
going
to
start
cash-wise.
You
know
again
in
2000,
you
know.
Last
october,
we
estimated
that
we
would
go
estimated
8
million
starting
cash
balance
and,
with
those
differences,
be
down
to
4
million.
C
Are
we
going
to
be
had
we
done
nothing,
but
it
would
have
probably
started
about
and
performed
to
the
budget
without
these
extraordinary
losses
in
revenue
and
the
additional
extraordinary
expenses
over
time
in
the
cove
emergency
mode.
So
we're
very
hopeful
that
we'll
begin
21
with
at
least
4
million
cash
accounting
you'll
jump
in
whenever,
but.
C
That's
the
whole
next
exercise
is
to
figure
out
where
we
are
well
again:
we've
put
the
brakes
on
some
of
the
expenses
and
we
have
probably
about
five
million
dollars
in
in
the
in
the
salaries,
which
is
seventy
percent
of
your
budget
and
another
two
or
three
million
we've
been
very
fortunate
with
gaming.
You
know
we
initiated
you
know
with
initially
the
we
had
april
with
no
revenue,
no
gaming
revenue,
which
is
the
two
million
dollar
hit
and
then
another
one
with
about
half
of
it.
C
So
at
this
point
in
time
we
had
a
pretty
good
revenue
figure
from
gaming
last
month
or
actually
the
month
of
july,
that
was
booked
this
year.
We
were
just
a
seven
eighty
thousand
dollars
off
in
that.
As
against
the
original
budget
of
one
point,
eight
seven
you're
right
one
point:
eight
seven:
we
really
got
1.08087,
that's
about
seventy
thousand
authors,
we're
hopeful
that
a
million
and
a
half
may
come
up
our
way,
and
so
that's
always
gonna
we're
trying
to
flush
out
where
we're
gonna
start
the
year.
C
So
we
can
go
through
these
expenses
that
we've,
you
know,
cycled
down
or
or
scoped
down
as
far
as
and
been
conservative
and
what
estimates
we
have
in
revenues
now,
it's
a
mouthful.
So
basically
what
I'm
saying
these
financial
disposition
right
here
is
of
you
know:
period
11.
again,
we've
got
about
five
million
dollars
worth
of
payroll
to
do
for
the
rest
of
this
fiscal
year.
C
C
Now
we're
also
hopeful
that,
in
the
revenue
we
projected
some
recovery
of
the
extraordinary
expenses,
so
that's
booked
as
a
grant
in
in
what's
going
to
follow
in
as
far
as
revenues,
we're
hopeful
of
of
that
as
well.
As
you
know,
we're
looking
at
every
refinancing
option,
we've
actually
going
to
transfer
in
other
sources
of
revenue
the
savings
that
we
did
from
the
fun
20
again,
370
thousand
378
thousand.
So
that'll
be
not
you
know
one
time
revenue,
other
sources,
that'll
offset
the
differences
between
revenues
and
expenses.
C
So
this
one
piece
of
paper
is
all
you
know:
the
financials
and
cash
there's
columns
and-
and
you
know
the
due
twos
and
new
froms
is
important
too
you'll.
Note
that
in
the
right
in
the
middle
of
the
pages,
is
a
capital
projects
fund
and
there's
a
due
to
do
from
the
general
fund,
and
you
know,
we've
worked
our
way
through
11
million
in
debt
and
17
million
dollars
worth
of
receivables,
but
the
the
that
balance
owed
to
the
general
fund
is
about
5.7
million.
That's
what
the
books
reflect.
So
that
would
be.
C
C
Back
so
we
just
we
just
kind
of
started
where
we
are
physically,
I
think
we've
absorbed.
You
know,
we've
done
we
put
the
brakes
on
and
the
books
reflect
the
the
opportunities
that
we
took
again.
There'll
be
more
opportunities
in
refinancing,
but
that
won't
probably
sure
up
till
about
november,
and
that
would
be
in
the
utility
authorities
that
we
we,
our
debt
service
to
the
utility
authority,
is
about
3.9
million
a
year
and
a
similar
opportunity.
C
We
took
with
the
the
bond
refinancing
we
we
may
have
here
with
this
opportunity
there.
Okay,
now
so,
are
there
any
questions
on
the
are
called
the
balance
tables.
C
So
in
a
you
know
in
a
nutshell,
you
can
see
where
we're
doing
what
we're
doing
where
we're
gaining
or
losing
so
the
3.734
is
considering
a
pretty
good
number
for
us
to
be
in
right
now
with
the
with
what's
left
in
this
current
year.
So
again,
these
numbers
are
dynamic
and
and
we're
in
a
revenue
prediction
mode
and
expense
prediction
mode,
so
we
can
sure
up
the
the
next
fy21
year.
Okay,
any
questions
nope.
D
C
B
B
B
The
first
and
second
column
it
describes
the
different
funds
and
then
you've
got
three
columns,
actual
expenditures,
current
encumbered,
actual
revenue,
then
you've
got
another
three
columns,
beginning
balance,
year-to-date
gain
or
loss.
Current
balance
and
you've
got
a
third
group
of
columns,
budget
expenditures,
budget
revenue
and
net
change,
and
in
that
net
change,
column
say
for
the
general
fund.
You've
got
four
4.4
million
dollars.
That's.
C
Right
right,
that
means
when
we
started
the
fy
year
right,
we
had
budgeted
and
it
was
adjusted
by
about
a
million
with
things
grants
and
that
sort
of
thing.
So
we
actually
the
difference
between
budgeted
expenses,
not
actual
but
budgeted
revenues
and
expenses
was
four
million
dollars.
So
we
had
four
million
dollars
more
expenses
budgeted
and
approved
than
the
exp
than
the
revenues
were
expensive.
Okay,.
C
C
C
Exactly
and
if
you
look
at
the
you
know,
the
key
thing,
at
least
to
me,
is
that
3.37
loss
so
to
speak,
because
that
is
a
loss.
It's
a
positive
number.
There
should
be
a
negative
number,
but
you
know
guess
what
we've
already
absorbed
we
absorbed
about
about
five
million
dollars
in
things,
so
you
know
putting
the
brakes
on
and
doing
the
things
we
did
again
over
the
life
cycle
of
that
bond
refinancing.
That
was
a
one
point:
something
million
dollars
about
378
000
of
it
just
this
year.
C
E
C
C
We
had
estimated
a
beginning
balance
of
8
million
in
cash,
eight
million
eight
million
in
cash.
Okay.
Right
now,
if
you're
looking
at
this
other
table,
where
we're
sitting
at
in
pool
cash
right,
this
fact
second
is
4.422
million
if
we'd
done
it,
but
basically
we've
expanded
the
revenues
or
the
budget
revenues
up
to
61
million
and
also
the
expenses
to
reflect
66.6624.
C
C
So
if
you
look
at
the
budget,
you
got
budgeted,
you
could
spend
up
to
66
million
and
the
revenues
were
60
one
and
that
four
million
dollars
is
the
difference.
C
No,
it's
just
what
we
budgeted
and
the
budget
is
an
estimate
of
what
we're
going
to
spend
during
the
year.
It's
just
pure
an
estimate,
but
we
estimated
that
difference
or
actually
was
a
little
bit
less
than
that,
because
I
know
we
had
six
or
seven
hundred
thousand
dollars
in
grants
and
about
977
000
in
additional
revenues.
As
these
opportunities
come
up
come
over,
so
it's
a
dynamic
and
every
time
we
ask
for
a
resolution,
you're
proven
up
or
down
those
numbers,
but
literally
at
the
start
of
the
year.
C
And
then
we
res
you
know
we
did
budget
amendments
throughout
the
year
and
this
is
what
it
is
right
now.
C
E
E
On
this
you
know.
C
Well,
let
me
see
if
I
can
be
real
real
again.
This
is
an
estimate.
Okay-
and
this
is
in
the
budget,
not
mean
we're
going
to
spend
it
because
we
put
the
brakes
on
okay,
we
didn't
change.
We
didn't
redo
the
budget
to
reduce
the
2.7
million
dollars
that
we
we
said
we
were
going
to
save.
You
know
that
adjusted
figure
that
we
talked
about.
Okay,
well,
hey.
We
put
the
stops
to
it
and
we're
just
not
going
to
spend
it
so
we're.
C
We
can
almost
put
your
finger
on
2.7
million
dollars
of
that
4.2
that
we
weren't
going
to
spend.
We
didn't
change
the
budget
to
do
that,
but
literally
the
the
tail
of
the
tape
is
with
actuals
right
actuals.
What
we
have
spent
was
about
1.4
million
dollars
in
coven
that
was
overtime
and
uncompensated.
C
You
know
just
people
sitting
home
before
three
weeks
of
vacation,
all
right.
That
was
a
big
hit
about
two
months
worth
of
no
revenue
in
in
in
in
gaming,
okay,
about
a
million
five
in
sales
tax.
All
right!
So
that's
the
hit.
That's
reflected
right
now.
We've
absorbed
that
hit.
C
Yeah,
whatever
you
see
on
here
we've
received
and
what
we've
received
is
eight,
let
me
put
these
glasses
on
actual
revenue
was
49.
215
five
should
have
been
about
five
million
dollars
more
right.
Now,
accounting
y'all
jump
in
see
that
boy,
that's
it
okay,
so
we
had
some
you
know
of
recovery.
Again
we
talked
about
the
resolution,
except
in
that
settlement
halibur
1
million,
we
refinanced,
you
know
immediately
378
thousand
dollars.
We
got
a
200
000
settlement
from
utility
authorities,
so
that's
filling
that
five
million
dollar
hole.
C
Received
all
this
already
yeah
once
you
everything
is
received
on
this
picnic.
This
is
what
we
have.
What
we
haven't.
You
know
what
we
didn't
get
is
the
two
million
dollars
in
april
that
we
were
booking
in
may.
We
got
one
weekend
and
we
got
about
what
was
the
gaming
revenue
70
000,
something
like
that
not
much
okay
june
came
along.
We
were
a
little
bit
slow
again.
We
had
budgeted
for
next
year.
Okay,
given
what
where
we
are
and
what
we're
we're,
anticipating
all
right
in
this
exercise.
C
We
have
three
months
of
this
year.
You
know
covered
related
stuff.
This
year
we
said
use
about
75
percent,
okay
of
last
the
prior
year's
gaming
numbers
for
the
remainder
of
2000.
You
know
twenty
and
then
go
full
steam
january
through
october.
Through
to
september
we
turns
out.
C
Last
month
we
were
eighty-one
instead
of
75
and
and
and
this
month
we
were
90
something
of
the
original
figure.
Again
we
budgeted
and
we
have
all
these
memorized.
We
budgeted
1.87
million
receipts
before
coven
we
actually
got
1.807
million.
So
that's
a
good
sign
and
we're
hopeful
that
august
would
be
good
too.
When
we
receive
it
in
september-
and
you
know
with
things
coming
back-
we're
hopeful
that
we'll
be
in
a
better
position
but
for
budgeting
purposes,
as
you
can
see,
there's
a
two-page
attachment
here.
C
This
is
what
we're
thinking
about
for
next
year
right
in
the
middle
of
the
page,
you
see
gaming
figure,
and
last
year
we
had
budgeted
18.95
of
eight
nine
excuse
me,
and
we
said,
let's
kick,
that
down
just
to
be
conservative.
So
what
we're
using
as
part
of
this
revenue
is
2
million
off,
so
we're
budgeting
17
in
these
figures
that
we're
going
to
continue
we're
better
than
17
million.
You
know
that's
very
conservative.
We
could
easily
kick
that
up
some
just
to
make
numbers,
but
these
are
all
guesses.
C
You
know
these
are
educated
guesses
based
on
numbers.
So
what
you
see
in
these
two
pages
are,
I
think,
an
educated
shot
at
where
we're
going
to
be.
You
know
in
october
1
of
2021.,
and
here
we
are,
you
know
a
year
away,
but
you
know,
if
you
look
at
you,
know
our
audits
and
some
of
these
things,
we've
always
outperformed
and
been
in
a
better
position
that
we
were
guessing
with
in
you
know
in
the
end
of
september.
E
July's
gaining
taxes.
C
What's
that
july
july,
what
july
that
we
collected
in
august
was
1.0
1.807,
one
million
eight
hundred
seven
thousand
dollars
okay
before
covert.
We
do
it
month
by
month,
because
each
month
is
a
little
different
than
the
one
prior
year.
You
know
things
are
slow
in
in
january,
and
so
there's
a
month
by
month,
sort
of
comparison.
We
had
budgeted
1.87,
yeah,
okay,
so
we're
hopeful
man.
If
you
know,
I
think
our
our
figure
for
except
what
we'll
receive
in
september
for
august,
business
was
1.6
million
diana.
C
E
I
didn't
know
the
11
months
you
have
it
listed
on
here.
The
total
amount
of
gaming
taxes
on
here
11.
C
Months,
not
in
total
yeah
there.
It
is
it's
there
exactly
it's
it's
in
that
line
right
there
in
revenue,
because
it
shows
you
year-to-date
and
it's
up
to
the
date.
Let's
see,
year-to-date
we've
received
14.096
million
in
gaming.
You
see
we're
here
to
date,
fy2020
right
in
the
middle
of
the
page,
gaming.
E
C
E
C
It
just
came
out
yeah
last
month's
sales
tax
was
one
1
million,
73
438
dollars,
and
that's
going
to
put
us
about.
You
know
a
million
five
short,
if
I'm
not
sure
exactly
where
we'll
be,
but
I
think
we
had
estimated
when
the
smoke
clears
will
be
3.5
million
dollars
in
gaming
revenue
down
and
1.5
million
in
sales
tax
down,
so
that
hit
that's
5
million.
Is
that
we've
been
reflective
in
the
current
year
in
offset
by
the
revenues
and
the
other
things
coming
in
from
other
sources?.
C
No
literally,
you
know
the
efforts
that
the
team
has
you
know,
but
you
know
it
was
literally
1.7
million
in
removal
of
vacancies
and
things
you
don't.
We
don't
have
to
have
right
now,
so
that
offset
that
four
million
dollars
would
that
we
started
at
the
beginning
by
at
least
that
amount.
So
when
you
look
at
that
five
million
dollar
hole
1.7
is
it
came
from
no
vacancies.
You
know,
another
million
came
from
the
recovery
from
halliburton.
C
Another
378
000
came
from
the
refinancing
of
the
the
two
bonds,
the
bonds,
okay,
another
200
000
of
them
came
with
the
arrangement
we
did
at
the
utility
authority
now
keep
in
mind,
there's
some
more
opportunities,
but
we're
not
saying
it.
F
Yeah-
and
I
guess
that's
where
I'm
headed
with
the
opportunities
area
because
we're
looking
at
the
the
the
covet
expenses
yeah
that
we
we
accrued
it
is
there
any
opportunities
of
recovering.
C
And
that's
some
of
that
money!
That's
in
this!
That's
in
this!
What
we're
doing
and
if
you
look
it's
1.3
million
it'll,
stick
out
on
you
right
right,
a
little
bit
down
from
the
intergovernmental.
What
number
it's
one!
Oh
100!
430
covered!
Let's
see
it's
about
the
etl1.
F
C
Yeah,
that's
what
we're
applying
for
1.3
million
to
fema.
Again,
we've
documented
that-
and
we
were
luckily
that
we
have
a
basis
because
you
know
after
the
hurricane
and
some
of
the
things
we
did
by
statue
said
we
will
pay
premium
pay
to
those
people
who
are
working
and-
and
that
was
400
of
them.
I
guess
right
at
double
time
or
premium
pay,
and
then
some
of
them
that
were
sitting
at
home
without
working
without
using
their
annual
league.
So
we've
got
a
good
claim.
It
may
be
more
than
that.
C
And
it's
open
just
like
a
storm,
it's
open
and
we're
think
what
was
the
they
said.
It
needs
to
be
in
by
december
well
from
a
female
standpoint,
maybe
well
october,
close
enough
all
right
so,
but
that
that
even
there
could
be
even
more,
but
we
know
through
you
know
there.
There's
some
you
know
covered
believe
cares,
act,
money
and
so
forth
that
they've
delineated
by
its
population
and
right
now
I
think
we
had
a
million
a
little
bit,
but
you
know
literally,
we
expect
that
to
change.
C
So
I
mean
I
I'm
real
comfortable
with
saying
we're
going
to
recover.
1.3
million
at
some
point
in
time
fall
covert,
not
lost
revenue,
because
we
we're
still
chasing
that
too
right.
I
mean
that
hadn't
been
from
washington
down
that
hadn't
been
been
covered,
but
we
we're
hopeful
of
every
opportunity
there.
C
Okay,
the
other,
you
know
again.
I
mentioned
a
little
bit
about
refinancing
we're
looking
at
every
opportunity
to
refinance
based
on
you
know
the
the
numbers
that
are
out
there.
It
may
go
to
zero
interest
rate
yeah
instead
of
1.95.
C
C
Okay,
when
you
look
back
at
the
revenues
from
last
year,
we
had
budgeted,
you
know,
61
million,
so
we're
conservative
and
what
we're
what
we
think
we'll
we'll
connect
collect.
So
looking
back
at
the
single
balance
sheet
tables,
we've
reduced
the
the
expectation
by
a
couple
of
million
dollars,
but
that's
not
to
say
we
can't
adjust
up
based
on.
C
And
let
me
let
me
say
again
that
one
point
three
that
felix
brought
up
that
that's
part
of
the
deal
we've
got
some.
C
A
C
Is
that
right
that
we
budgeted
in
this
figure,
1
million
for
that's
what
poor
authority
and
and
the
water
sewer
pays
back
to
the
general
fund
to
offset
some
of
the
things
that
are
done
in
a
general
fund?
So
that's
part
of
that
too
again,
you
look.
C
Go
back
to
the
balance
sheet
in
water
and
sewer
balance
sheet
shows
the
water
and
sewer
is
the
year
to
take
gain
and
loss
is
1.7
million,
seeing
the
40
fund
in
this
one
single
shade
now,
and
it
also
owes
500
something
thousand
dollars
to
the
general
fund.
So
at
some
point
in
time
when
the
cash
flow
is
proper,
we'll
that
really
belongs
to
the
general
fund
in
some
sort
of
offset
and
as
well
as
the
5.7
million
in
the
30
fund,
that's
owed
to
the
general
fund.
C
C
So,
anyway,
there's
a
lot
of
opportunities
to
get
this
thing
balanced
in
in
you
know,
it's
how
we
move
forward
all
right,
but
keep
in
mind
that
40
and
that
44
fund
is
not
a
like
the
general
fund.
You
know
anything
you
gain
from
that
year
can
be
used
to,
and
we've
actually
put
the
brakes
on
trucks
and
some
of
these
other
opportunities,
but
literally
there's
1.7
million
dollars
in
opportunity
in
the
40
fund
to
be
used.
C
If
you
want
to
buy
trucks,
whatever
we're
talking
about
buying
this
year,
trucks
and
and
things
so
part
of,
I
doubt
that
we
can
get
to
that
before
1
30
meeting,
but
part
of
what
we're
proposing
this
year,
there's
a
number
of
trucks
and
a
number
of
pieces
of
equipment
to
use
a
little
bit
of
that
money,
we're
going
to
gain
by
the
end
of
the
year
to
buy
some
things
that
we
didn't
buy
in
projects
that
we
didn't
do
in
this
year.
B
Two
questions
and
looking
at
the
that
first
sheet,
you
gave
us
which,
when
you're
talking
about
the
40
fund
right
and
there's
a
due
to
do
from
correct
to
the
general
fund
of
535
000,
all
right,
and
you
see
I'm
understanding
due
to
due
from
after
three
years
of
tutoring,
all
right.
Then,
if,
if
we
look
at
the
general
fund,
no
the
the
40
funds,
still
you
said,
we've
got
a
a
gain
of
1.7
million
right
all
right.
C
C
Mean
they
have
some
options
there?
No,
we
have
options
and
that's
what
consideration
you
know
the
cash
is
there.
You
know
if
you
look
at
that
cash
column,
that's
the
cash
we've
got.
You
know.
You
know
that
we've
reconciled,
we
they
bird
dog,
whether
it
belongs
to
this
account
or
that
account
right.
It's
just
a
number,
but
literally
I'm
saying
if
you're
worried
about
the
general
fund
and
some
of
these
numbers
it's
5.7
sitting
in
and
you
know
we
just
paid
11
million
off
the
last
2.7
million
dollars
in
that
payment.
C
You
know
because
we
had
oh,
that
number
was
way
up
there
until
we
borrowed
that
money.
Until
we
got
the
the
fema
money
started
rolling
back
so
that
cash
is
there
and
the
due
twos
and
new
funds
can
be
swept
back.
Okay,
if.
B
C
But
they
all
should
point
back
then
there's
a
little
difference
in
in
timing
between
water
and
sewer,
and
I
think
that
comes
with
one,
it's
sort
of
a
modified
accrual.
When
we
do
gaming,
so
I
mean
billing
so
that
really
just
like
the
the
general
and
capital
project,
it
should
be
the
same
number.
So
when
you
walk
when
you
take
the
cash
out
of
one
put
it
in
the
other,
then
you
wash
those
two
accounts.
C
C
C
yeah.
We
don't
think
we're
going
to
get
that
money.
You
know,
150
is
the
rent.
It's
only.
You
can
look
at
there's
no
ticket
sales
and
there's
no
idea
that
there
will
be
another.
You
know
early
on
in
2019
and
even
before
that
there
was
some
expectations
of
ticket
sales
and
other
things,
but
we
have
none
so
to
be
conservative.
We
know
we're
gonna
get
150
and
maybe
the
rest
of
them
somewhere
else.
Is
that
not
right.
E
C
E
Going
up
from
there
go
to
the
the
b
mail
or
whatever
you
call
it.
What
do
you
call
us
wait,
but
where
are
we
george,
what
number.
E
C
E
F
C
and
and
we
wouldn't
have
to
twist
some
arms
to
increase
that
based
on
numbers
that
are
going
to
happen
between
now
and
then,
but
unfortunately,
we've
got
to
project
cash
and
by
thursday
and
and
the
usage
of
these
numbers,
not
only
for
this,
these
general
fund,
ward
and
sewer
and
port,
but
anything
else
from
debt
service,
so
we're
under
the
gun
to
estimate
something
you
know
and
get
it
advertised
what's
that
by
thursday.
C
So
we're
going
to
come
up
with
the
you
know
the
piece
of
paper
that
you
know
and
love,
and
you
know
that
the
combined
funds,
it
shows
you
where
we've
started,
where
we're
estimating
to
start
where
we're
estimating
to
end
and
put
that
out
for
if
they
public
notice.
So
they
can
come
in
and
comment.
But
you
know
again,
this
is
very
dynamic
and
you
know
with
these.
Are
you
know
within
48
hours,
we'll
have
the
numbers
that
we're
prepared
to
advertise,
and
then,
when
is
the
public
hearing
on
the
budget
september?
C
D
C
G
C
In
there
yeah
it's
actually
already
been
booked
in
20
in
cash.
Yeah
we've
got
that
booked
in
the
20
years
20
2020
year.
That
was
in
the
I
don't
know
what
the
account
number
was
they
recovered,
but
it
was
1.01.
F
C
Was
it
what
was
it
man?
It's
in
the
credits
it's
already
booked
this
year,
so
that
would
we
weren't
expecting
that
you
know
anything
was
like
twenty
thousand
who
total
and
if
things
were
1.6
total.
I
think
anyway,
but
basically
it's
in
this
year
and
also
the
200
000
is
in
from
the
utility
authority
settlement
that
we
did
with
with
utility.
We
got
200
000,
that's
booked
in
there.
So
that's
that's
pretty
much.
You
look
at
that
number.
C
That's
why
we're
you
know
a
little
bit
ahead
of
where
we
thought
we
would
be
with
the
5
million
loss
and
also
summit
won't
be
in
there's
378
more
thousand
dollars,
that'll
be
transferred
from
the
20
fund
201
fund.
Because
that's
you
know,
that's
the
refinancing
thing.
C
So
if
you
just
look
at
that
number,
it
kind
of
brings
me
to
the
next
stage
of
this
deal.
If
you
look
at
the
single
page,
this
is
the
expenses
for
the
you
know
the
operational,
the
you
know
the
general
fund
is
worth
as
well
as
water
and
sewer
and
the
budget
we're
in
different
categories.
C
And
this
one
you
have
two
headings
called
fy,
20,
20,
adjusted
and
fy
2021
proposed
and
there's
a
change.
So
what
we
did
when
I
mentioned
the
2.7
million
dollars
that
we
went
through
to
say
put
the
brakes
on,
that's
reflected,
so
we
actually,
if
you
look
at
the
original
budget
60,
something
million
would
put
the
brakes
on
and
said.
No,
you
cannot
spend
more
than
59..
C
C
C
So
in
the
budget,
it's
not
only
these
full-time
employees,
but
the
vacancies
that
we
deferred
and
the
ones
that
we
absolutely
need,
because
it
was
about
101
vacancies
when
we
put
you
know
put
the
brakes
on.
Is
that
accurate,
okay,
so,
basically
in
in
this
personnel
expense
part
of
the
deal,
the
41
something
million
40
million?
C
That
includes
not
only
the
people
who
are
on
board
now,
but
the
vacancies
that
we're
proposing
and
most
of
them
like
you
know
it
is
in
police
and
fire.
You
know,
and
you
know,
they've
been
creative
in
what
they
can
do
and
as
far
as
equipment
they
can.
They
can
use
too
this
year
versus
what
was
in
the
budget
from
the
prior
year.
C
Okay,
all
right,
so,
if
you
look
at
the
thing,
this
is
what
we
think
is
going
to
happen
in
2021
after
we
put
the
brakes
on
and
looked
at
what
personnel
we
absolutely
need.
The
categories
that
you
know
you,
we've
kind
of
delineated
is,
of
course,
personnel
at
70
that
represents
about
70
of
the
ball
game
and
supplies,
and
services
and
contractual
kinds
of
things
in
insurance
and
capital
items.
That's
a
breakdown,
so
each
department
it
will
be
using
these
these
numbers
and
that
they
have
to
operate
with
the
bottom
line.
C
C
G
C
D
C
Know
if
we
start
at
four
million
dollars,
so
we
started
four
million
dollars,
then
what
we'll
have
and
we'll
do
to
these
budgets
and
other
opportunities
come
and
we
don't
make
any
adjustments
and
we
perform
to
that
budget.
We'll.
Have
you
know
that
deficit,
which
is
2.7
million
off
the
4
million?
I
expect
to
you,
know,
maybe
we'll
be
even
better
positioned,
so
you'll
wind
up
and
it's
pretty
much
a
weight
worth
worst
case
scenario
in
my
opinion,
because
we
got
cash
all
over
the
place.
C
I
mean,
if
you
want
to
just
say:
let's
have
more
cash.
Let's
take
some
due
to
and
do
from.
I
can
take
2.7
million
out
of
capital
projects
and
put
it
in
there
as
other
income
sources,
but
I
don't,
I
don't
think
that's
necessary.
I
mean
cash
is
cash.
We
got
it.
You
know
we
bird
dogged
out
every
you
know
every
week
and
every
day
you
know
as.
C
C
You
know
to
say,
especially
in
probably
10
more
days
of
the
next
month,
we'll
figure
out
whether
that
2.7
is
going
to
work
its
way
down.
Could
we
not
be
you
know
we
may
be
more
than
75
for
the
first
three
months.
You
know
that
17
million
we're
looking
at
17
million
for
the
whole
year
in
gaming.
That
could
be
up
a
million
pretty
easy,
but
we're
not.
You
know
from
worst
case
scenario,
which
we're
trying
to
get
to
that.
That
difference
is
2.7
million.
C
Increased
we're
estimating
about
a
three
percent
uplift
in
things
coming
on
online.
You
know
with
some
abatements
that
went
away
and
just
generally,
I
think,
a
three
percent
three
percent
uplift
in
excess
valuation
for
our
tax
districts.
B
B
C
But
just
based
on
you
know,
there's
so
many
dollars
over
is
split
three
ways
if
it
overcomes
which
you
know
this
year
with
cobit.
If
we're
not
booking,
you
know
we're
not
being
really
aggressive,
we're
not
pushing
it
to
the
limit.
B
Yeah
on
the
expense
sheet
down
there,
where
we
have
the
employees
under
personnel
and
we've
got
administration
and
that's
going
up
55
000.
What
accounts
for
that.
A
George,
I'm
sorry.
We
have
a
regular
scheduled
council
meeting
here
in
a
few
moments
I
want
to.
We
need
to
tidy
up
a
few
concerns,
moving
forward
with
the
budget
sessions,
sure
and
then
move
on
to
the
regular
scheduled
meeting,
and
we
can
return
to
another
budget
meeting
for
the
remainder
of
this
discussion.
We
just
received
this.
I
think
we
need
to
review
it
soak
it
in.
Where
are
we
at
on
finalizing
a
deadline
for
the
for
the
budget
hearing
and
the
publication?
Well,.
C
Again,
within
the
next
48
hours,
I
think
we'll
be
ready
to
to
propose.
You
know,
give
the
the
newspaper
what
we're
thinking
you
know
worst
case
scenario:
the
usage:
you
know
the
revenues
against
it
would
be
2.7
million
unless
we
come
up
with
some
hey
move
the
due
to
some
new
fronts.
Thank
you,
so
we're
we're
very
close.
C
We're
just
going
to
find
the
look
and
feel
I
think,
of
what
we
found.
You
know
I
think
the
harrison
county
school
district
instead
of
publishing
some
some
numbers
in
about
20
columns,
there's
a
a
proposed
option
that
chose
trust
and
agency
general
fund
capital
projects
and
then
the
usage
of
you
know
the
fund
balance
in
order
to
complete
the
budget,
so
we'll
show
the
revenues,
the
expenses,
the
uses
of
other
funding
sources
and
the
the
change
from
fund
balance
or
cash
balancing
in
this
case.
C
So
we're
close
to
that
I
mean
I,
I
don't
see
anything
changing
in
the
general
fund
or
the
water
and
sewer
right,
okay
and
we're
just
a
matter
of
looking
field,
so
we'll
be
ready
by
thursday
morning.
F
D
D
Fiscal
2021
on
so
and
so
date
the
meeting
will
be
held
in
the
council
chambers.
The
city
of
biloxi
is
now
operating
with
a
projected
revenue
of
x,
then
for
the
next
fiscal
year
the
projected
budget
will
be
total
will
be
y.
That's
essentially
what
we
have
to
publish.
So
it's
very
generic
and
very
high
level
right.
You
have
to
publish
it
along
with
the
notice
for
the
public
hearing.
C
Directly
to
fall,
publication
you'll,
have
it
and
then
any
any,
probably
tomorrow,
okay,
great.
A
Thank
you,
quick
wrap-up
questions.
If
there's
anything,
you
want
the
mayor
to
think
about,
or
mr
mike
the
cio
to
think
about
prior
to
this
budget
hearing
mr
tisdale,
mr
lawrence
quickly.
