MOTION CARRIED. 3. REVIEW 1990 - 1996 CAPITAL BUDGET Mr. Kojetin handed out a new copy of the next five year capital improvement budget. In review with the staff it was recommended that we try to look at $200,000 commitment per year for the next 5 years. The revenue would be requested from the same three areas that were recommended before, such as from the Utility Transfer Fund for $100,000, a General Capital Fund of $80,000 and $20,000 from the Developer's Fund. It was also recommended that in the Developer's Fund we try to establish the continuity of holding $250,000 in this account at all times and the $20,000 would be interest received from that account. This would average approximately $20,000 per year. At present there is approximately $350,000 in the fund. The capital improvement budget for 1990, because of the need for new playground equipment and tennis court resurfacing, it would be recommended that we use committed funds for the greenhouse maintenance building. It is recommended that the committed and carry over funds for the greenhouse maintenance building, to be built in 1990 and 1991, be used for immediate installation of new playground equipment at York and Pamela Park. The greenhouse maintenance building account has approximately $55,000 for carry-over to the 1991 budget whereas the building would be built for approximately $80,000 in 1991. In our 1991 budget we have recommended Pamela and York as areas to receive new playground equipment so we switched years because of the demand for playground equipment in the local neighborhood. This is some of the criteria we used in the "Jupiter and Beyond Report" that as local demographics and demand in certain areas change we could be flexible enough to make changes in our capital repair and improvement budget to compensate. The Park Board recommended approval and stated that these are good suggestions so that we can make improvements immediately when needed. Pat Vagnoni MOVED TO APPROVE THE UPGRADED YELLOW SHEET.
