The regular meeting of the BudgeffFinance Committee was called to order by Chairman
Bud Johnson at 7:00 p.m.
The minutes of the July 16ta regular meeting were approved as presemed.
Mary distributed the Preliminary Budget for the committee's review. Then she told the
committee of her meeting with Norm Klein on July 26th. He reviewed the method used
to determine the additional mills the city could levy for health insurance premium
increases as allowed by HB409, and approved it. This means the city can levy an
additional 15.42 mills ($93,525) in fund #2371, and 6.01 mills ($36,489) in fund #2372.
These are reported separately on the Summary Schedule as they are not subject to the
"float". Norm also noticed that a certain type of motor vehicle revenue was not on the
Entitlement revenue matrix. He will do some checking on this with the county, and it
may mean an adjustment to the non-tax revenues for the mill levied funds.
Regarding the search for optional health insurance, Map/called Gena Klotz, who
informed her that Blue Cross/Blue Shield is the only provider issuing HMO policies at
this time. If the city is willing to consider other types of coverage, she would be willing
to recommend several associates to give a presentation to the Insurance Committee.
Mary reported that the Resolutions of Intent for the Lighting Districts are on the agenda
for tomorrow night. If the resolutions pass, then the process to complete the approval of
the expanded districts begins, and the new figures are included in the Preliminary Budget.
The July Claims in the amount of $651,308.99 were reviewed. Motion by Gay,
seconded by Ken that the committee recommends to council that the July claims be
approved. Motion passed unanimously.

still be more J.V.'s for June as she completes the year-end closing procedures. Motion by
