revenue. Replying to an inquiry from Dauber, he said that carry-overs
did not include income, but that income was rescheduled for the
next year.

would include the year of approval.

commitment of funds and that he took responsibility for having made
that decision.

City Manager discussed the Stonebrook Pathway Extension,costing$50,000.
He said that when trucks are going by it is very dangerous and he
suggested initiating a truck fee system,whereby there would be a
minimum number of trucks allowed for a project and then a fee would
apply for trucks over the minimum. Fees collected would go toward
repairing streets.
Director of Public Works told Council that because of the drought many
roads in the Town had very deep cracks, and that when the rains finally
come, these cracks will cause large and expensive repair problems. He
explained staff was analyzing the situation within the fee structuring
analysis,but informed Council that more money would be required for
next year.
Finance Consultant said the 1st Quarter Report as of September 30, 1992 was
in the final draft stages and would be ready for review during the first
