PUBLIC HEARING (Joint Session)
ITEM "M" /CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NUMBER 5882 /REDEVELOPMENT
AGENCY RESOLUTION NUMBER 09-03 /FISCAL YEARS 2009-2011 BUDGET
/ 5-YEAR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
Mayor Shanks stated this was the time and place for the continued public hearing
for the consideration of: Fiscal Years 2009/2011 Operating Budget,
Redevelopment Agency Budget and 5-year Capital Improvement Program. The
Director of Administrative Services clarified that it is common practice to
authorize the City Manager to make transfers between line items when it is
necessary -Councilman Miller indicated this practice is too flexible and allows
money to be moved at will; and requested to have a Building Facility Master Plan
to be more knowledgeable about the needs for the future.
Mayor Shanks then reopened the public hearing. Speakers: Robert Goldberg,
Clipper Way, (provided a hand-out) asked questions regarding under
appropriation for police holiday pay, police overtime, and repairs to police station
roof and council bathrooms -requested that a there be a Fund Building Facilities
Master Plan, not spend money for aState-of-the-City Luncheon, and the need to
have a separate report explaining and justifying authorizing the City Manager to
make appropriation transfers; Seth Eaker, Seal Beach Chamber/13th Street
resident, asked if local businesses could receive bid credit points on City projects
and would like to see more communications with the public -supports State-of-
the-City luncheon; and Joyce Parque, 6th Street, stated there are a lot of people
in the city that would like to see the report on lowering the Utility User Tax, need
Page 2 -RDA - 06/08/09
more road repair in Old Town, and Council needs to save money for this down
economy. There being no other speakers the Mayor closed the public hearing.
Staff answers to Council concerns:
• City Engineer indicated that the streets in Old Town will be going out for
bids in August 2009;
• Administrative Services - PD overtime and holiday pay -answer: PD fully
staffed, no need for overtime at this time, and holiday pay was eliminated
from MOU's;
• Director of Public Works -roof at PD was replaced only about 5 years ago
- has 10 year warranty and City Hall restroom renovation costs will come
out of the $2M building improvement fund;
• City Engineer -Beverly Manor Road improvements are scheduled to be
on the August agenda;
• Administrative Services -department is currently looking at options for the
City if there is a short fall from the State -revenues were estimated
conservatively and could postpone capital improvement projects;
Antos moved, second by Miller to adopt City Council Resolution No. 5882 entitled
"A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH
CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING THE FISCAL YEARS 2009/2010 AND 2010/2011
