CITY BUDGET RECOMMENDATIONS FOR 2008-09
The Board discussed a recommendation to Council regarding the Manager's proposed budget. Three themes
emerged from the discussion:
o More funding for alternative transportation modes, increasing transit service and making it easier/safer
to walk, bike, and ride TransFort.
o Set aside a contingency fund for flexible response to emergent issues, eg. To implement
recommendations of the Climate Task Force, and 2009 implementation of a City trash utility.
o Increase revenue streams to pay for needed expenditures, eg., sales tax to fund road maintenance and
transit, or increase development fees, making them more fair.
The Board identified the following items to recommend funding to the City Council.
o FC MOVES ($60,000)
o Mobility Management
o Climate Task Force outcomes
o Trash Utility Implementation
o Pedestrian Access ($275,000)
o Complete Bicycle Master Plan routes ($500,000)
On a motion by Greg McMaster, the Board voted unanimously to have Dale Adamy draft a letter to the City
Council based on the Board's discussion, to be circulated by e-mail for Board member revisions, and to be
sent to Council over the chair's signature within one week.
