Request for ReallocatIon of ReceIpts Exceeding EstImates
The Mayor suggested recently at the CouncIl meeting that the polIce
department needed the purchase of a KR-IO radar unIt (In addItIon to the one
provIded In the 1984 budget). In fact, they had requested two, but as part
of the general pruning process to meet anticIpated revenues, received only
the one.
A KR-IO radar unit costs approxImately $1,995.00.
specifIcally to the subject, as follows:
The City Charter speaks
e
Section 7.07. ALTERATIONS IN THE BUDGET. Except as set forth in
Section 7.16, after the budget shall have been duly adopted, the
CouncIl shall not have power to Increase the amounts thereIn
fixed, whether by the Insertion of new Items or otherwise, beyond
the estimated revenues, unless the actual receipts shall exceed
such estimates, and in that event not beyond such actual receIpts.
The sums fIxed in the budget are appropriated at the begInning of
the fIscal year for the several purposes named thereIn and no
other. The Council may reduce salaries or the sums appropriated
for any other purpose, or authorize the transfer of sums from
unexpended balances to other purposes.
The CIty did receive an unexpected revenue in the amount of $3,916.00 due to
the unexpected sale of the Hopkins Bowl, due to the various non refundable
lIcenses involved. This money can be allocated by Council, if desired,
for the purchase of a radar unit. I would agree that such a unit would be
an asset to the department, and would allow better response to resident
complaInts of speed violations in their neighborhood.
Respectfully submitted,
