November 23, 1982 2!1! on,first~re~ding, and by unanimous vote: "AN ORDINANCE TO APPROPRIATE $283,088 FROM THE GRANTS JOB SEARCH DEMONSTRATION GRANT." FUND FOR THE FOOD STAMP 82~4il "L~t~r recommending adoption of a motion designating Atlantic National Bank as an authorized depository for the City of Portsmouth." "The City Code require§ in Sections ll-7(a) and ll-9(a) that City Funds be deposited to the credit of the City in such banks as the City Council may designate from time to time. Atlantic National Bank has recently announced that it will open its first branch bank and has chosen a Portsmouth location. The bank has requested to be added to the City's list of authorized depositories. Generally, it has been our policy to designate any bank with an office located in the City, and who so requests, to be an authorized depository. (There is one exception, the First Virginia Bank of Nansemond, is a depository due to its proximity to Portsmouth Sleepy Hole Golf Course.) Temporary loans and investments are 'placed by bid with these banks from time to time and individual account placement has been generally based on a degree of participation by the banks in servicing the City's financial needs. On the recommendations of the DireCtor of Finance, the City Manager makes the determinations of the placement of the individual accounts at each of the depositories designated by the City Council. I am Placing on your agenda for the November 23, 1982 Council meeting for your consideratio: a motion to include the Atlantic National Bank as an authorized depository. Motion of Mrs. Webb and seconded by Dr. Holley, designating Atlantic National Bank as an authorized depository for the City of Portsmouth was adopted by unanimous vote. 82-412 - "Letter submitting the Quarterly Financial Report for the perios ended September 31 1982." "In accordance with Section 11-43 of the City Code, the Quarterly Financial Report for the period ended SePtember 30, 1982, is herewith submitted. For the first quarter of the fiscal year both revenues and expenditures are slightly above the respective amounts for the same quarter last year. Actual revenues to date stand at 21 percent of the revenues estimated for the year, and 24 percent of the appropriations have been expended as of September 30, 1982. During the same quarter last year only 19 percent of the estimated revenues had been received and expenditures were 22 percent of the budgeted appropriations. It is customary for expenditures to exceed revenues at this point in the fiscal year, and it may be noted that the expenditures exceeded revenues by a difference of 3 percent during the period reported, and also by 3 percent for the same quarter last fiscal year. At this point and time, there does not appear to be any indications of substantial problems with respect to either the revenues or the expenditures." Motion of Mr. Barnes and seconded by Mrs. Webb, to accept the Quarterly Financial Report for the period ended September 30, 1982, was adopted by unanimous vote. - NEW BUSINESS - 82-413(a) Mrs. Webb introduced the Long Term Care Coordinating Committee rev~ed]resoluti to Council and thanked Mr. Lieberman and Mr. Orton for their help.
