Attorney, $1,500 to go towards the Wildcats football program and a 7%
pay raise for Lieutenants and Captains. There was also $190,000 deleted
from the budget.
Mr. Bird moved to direct the City Manager to make the adjust-
ments in the budget accordingly, seconded by Mrs. HOrenburger. Upon roll
call Council voted as follows: ~]r. Bird- Yes; Mrs. Horenburger- Yes;
hr. Jackel - No; Mr. Weather spoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Sa id
motion passed with a 4 to 1 vote.
Before roll call the following discussion was had:
~]r. Jackel questioned why they are discussing these items
after the budget has passed. They were not included in the budget and
if he has to vote he will vote against them, even though he feels some
of them deserve passage. He feels these changes should have been made
before the passage of the budget on second reading.
5]ayor Campbell stated when they passed the budget they only
passed the millage rate assessment and the total appropriations; they
did not consider line items. At this time, in order to recognize the
wishes of Council, they must have a consensus resolution directing the
City Manager to make those line item changes.
At this point the roll was called to the motion.

ment's undercover unit. Sheehan Rent-A-Car, Inc., was the low bidder
