While this represents no <br />increase in the Fund Balance as the Commission would ideally <br />desire, it does represent a significant step forward towards <br />being able to increase the Fund Balance to a level that would <br />be more acceptable. In this respect we. find the recommended <br />budget to be a fiscally sound budget. In addition, the <br />recommended budget appears to achieve a reasonable relationship <br />between rate increases and ~service levels. <br /> <br /> It is due to the foregoing that the Municipal <br />Commission by a unanimous vote of the members present, <br />recommends to the City Council that the City Manager's <br />budget for the period of July 1, 1989 through June 30, <br />adopted as p~esented.. · <br /> <br />Finance <br /> <br /> proposed <br /> 1990 be <br /> <br /> <br />
