<br /> 76-320 - "Consideration of an ordinance on first reading to appropriate $44,132.55 from
<br />the General Fund for multi-purpose and general government equipment.
<br />
<br /> This ordinance is a reappropriation of the Revenue Sharing funds which were appropriated
<br />during fiscR1 year 1976 for this purpose and had not been expended but were committed on June
<br />30, 1976. This appropriation is necessary because the General Fund appropriation ~xpires with
<br />the closing of the books on June 30; however, the Revenue Sharing Trust Fund does not close on
<br />a fiscal year basis but is reported on such basis. Therefore, a companion appropriation is not
<br />required. The City Manager recommends adoption on first reading."

<br />General Fund for the purchase of fiberglass seat covers for bleachers at Frank Lawrence Stadium
<br />
<br /> The funds for this appropriation are being provided from the revenue generated from the
<br />rental of the stadium for the recent rock concert. In order to utilize the stadium for this
<br />Fall's football season, it is necessary that maintenance in the form of fiberglass seat covers
<br />be performed on bleachers which are in deterioration condition. The Parks and Recreation
<br />Commission has recommended this expenditure of funds as a maintenance item for the stadium. It
<br />was discussed with the Stadium Committee and they concurred that it is a maintenance item and
<br />would not impact on their study into the future of the stadium. The City Manager recommends
<br />adoption on first reading."
