SPECIAL MEETING - MONTICELLO CITY COUNCIL
Monday, December 3, 1990 - 4:00 p.m.
Members Present: Ken Maus, Fran Fair, Shirley Anderson, Warren
Smith, Dan Blonigen
Members Absent: None
City Council reviewed the proposed budget submitted by City
Administrator, Rick Wolfsteller. Wolfsteller reported that the
proposed budget results in a tax levy of $2,752,778, which amounts
to a 7.2% increase over last year's tax levy. This increase in the
tax levy, when combined with the effect of the increase in property
valuation, will result in an actual property tax increase of less
than 60, which is fairly close to the cost of living adjustments
projected. It was the consensus of Council to support the adoption
of the proposed budget as it now stands with any subsequent changes
to be made as a result of input from the public at the upcoming
public hearing.
Dan Blonigen noted that he can support the budget and the increases
projected with the understanding that major items purchased in 1991
would again be considered by the Council before purchases are made.
There being no further discussion, a motion was made by Warren
Smith, seconded by Dan Blonigen, to present the budget and proposed
tax levy of $2,752,778 to the public at the public hearing on
adoption of the 1991 budget and tax levy scheduled for December 10,
1990. Motion carried unanimously.
Ken Maus requested an itemized list of the bond issues now
currently being paid by the City, the list to include the
expiration date of each bond issue.
There being no further discussion, the meeting was adjourned.
Je O'Neill
Assistant Administrator
