CITY HALL
MEMBERS PRESENT: Chairman- Donna Kilpatrick
Gay Easton Bob Graham

Ron Marshall
OTHERS PRESENT: Dave Michael
Don mentioned that the preliminary budget probably won't be
completed and presented to the City Council until July 19th. The
County Commissioner will make a decision by June 30th on whether
they will add 112•°6 to the vehicle license fee. If they do, Laurel
will get approximately $48.400. This amount should be included in
the preliminary budget and possibly add back some of the
expenditure cuts that were made, such as the police car and radios.
It was suggested also, that part of it should go back into the cash
reserves, because we had to use approximately $94,000 to balance
the budget.
The Budget/Finance Committee meeting scheduled for July 5th will be
held July 7th at 4:30 p.m. to review the claims. This will allow
a couple of more days for end of the year bills to get processed.
A special council meeting will be needed on July 7th at 5:00 p.m.
to approve the June claims.
Awarding the 1993-94 audit bid is on the council agenda tonight.
Steve Cosner, CPA, was the only bidder and he is on the states
temporary roster. Steve is being audited himself and won't get on
the permanent roster until after the audit is completed. The state
requires that anyone or firm needs to be on the states permanent
roster which allows them to do government audits. It was suggested
to award the bid to Steve Cosner, contingent on him getting placed
on the states permanent roster.
The Budget/Finance committee approved the purchase of two used
speakers, for the council chambers, from Chris Shay, in the amount
of $80.00.
It was reported that the new ambulance and a city police car were
involved in a fender bender at 3:30 a.m. on June 20th. The
departments involved are getting repair bids for the insurance
company (Harris Agency).
