tax. Regarding microfilming, it was noted that this amount went over budget <br /> due to the large amounts of microfilming done of historical files. Past records <br /> were now almost completely microfilmed so the future costs of microfilming <br /> would be substantially less. Tryon asked that when an item went over budget <br /> by a notable amount, that it be flagged. <br /> On the subject of capital projects, staff reported the following: <br /> Arastradero/Town Entry Design — should be going out to bid in 30 days; <br /> Town Hall Reconstruction/Paving -- in planning stages; Taaffe Road -- almost <br /> complete; a proposal to correct the slip-out which occurred is on the table; <br /> Byrne Park Fencing --bid package has been put together; the Director of Public <br /> Works will review with the City Manager; and Pathway Maintenance <br /> Expense -- the maintenance supervisor has been directed to hire temporary <br /> help on the crew. Concerning the street pavement project it was suggested <br /> that this project be moved forward in the year. <br /> Council asked if the tree planting project was currently being done and noted <br /> that they believed it was time to begin planting trees around Town. Council <br /> also referred to the tree planting on Altamont which had resulted in too <br /> many trees being planted in one place at a cost of too much money and no <br /> proper notification to the neighbors. Council requested that input be received <br /> from the Environmental Design and Protection Committee and also <br /> suggested that Councilmembers Johnson and Siegel meet with the City <br /> Manager to discuss the possible locations for placement of trees in the Town. <br /> Siegel raised the subject of the annual payment of the franchise fee from Sun <br /> Country Cable and suggested that an audit be done next year to ascertain that <br /> they were paying the correct amount. The Financial Consultant noted that <br /> having such an audit done was part of the contract with Sun Country. <br /> The City Manager referred to his staff report which addressed the issue of <br /> computers at Town Hall. His recommendation was that Council approve an <br /> expenditure of $27,000 to upgrade existing computers, purchase computers for <br /> the Town Treasurer, Office Manager and Building Official and purchase a <br /> notebook computer to facilitate more efficient minute-taking at the City <br /> Council and Planning Commission Meetings. <br /> MOTION SECONDED AND CARRIED: Moved by Johnson, seconded by <br /> Tryon and passed unanimously to approve additional spending of $27,000 for <br /> the purpose of upgrading existing and acquisition of additional computer <br /> equipment. <br /> March 18, 1992 <br /> Adjourned Regular Meeting <br /> 2 <br />
