APPROVAL OF AGENDA

PROPOSED 1995 -96 FISCAL YEAR BUDGET (602)
City Manager Bussey discussed the estimated revenues for fiscal
year 1995 -96. Mr. Bussey recommended that the Council transfer
approximately $2 million to the Capital Improvement Fund since it
was unknown whether the federal or state legislature would be
reducing funding to local governments. Without objection, it was
so ordered.
Miscellaneous discussion then ensued regarding the City's FEMA
reimbursement for the January 1995 storms, the Natural Community
Conservation Planning program (NCCP) and lifeguard services at
Abalone Cove Beach. No changes were made to the proposed budget as
a result of the discussion held by the Council on these items.
City Manager Bussey then recommended that the Council communicate
with the appropriate state and federal agencies associated with the
NCCP program indicating that the City would not continue with its
NCCP activities unless the agencies support the RDA's efforts to
stabilize and restore the shoreline at Abalone Cove and Portuguese
Bend. Without objection, the Council directed the City Manager to
move forward with the City Manager's recommendation.
Councilmember Brooks then inquired about the proposed budget for
City Attorney services and asked that staff obtain information from
the City of El Segundo relating to how El Segundo cut their legal
services budget. Without objection, it was so ordered.
The City Council then reviewed the budgets for the City Clerk,
Finance, Public Safety, Planning, Building & Safety and Recreation
departments. No changes were made to any of the proposed budgets
for these departments as a result of the Council's discussion.
Staff was directed to bring back information related to the costs
associated with County lifeguard services and revenues related to
the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program as new
information becomes available.
It was determined that the Public Works, Capital Improvement and
Redevelopment Agency budgets would be discussed prior to the
regular City Council meeting on May 2, 1995.
