RE: BUDGET WORKSHOP -TUESDAY, JULY 6, 1993
This memorandum serves as the minutes of the budget workshop session of the Village
r~ Council of the Village of North Palm Beach for Tuesday, July 6, 1993. Mayor V. A. Marks
convened the meeting at 7:00 p.m. All Council members were present, as were the Village
Manager, Finance Director and Public Services Director.
Prior to examining the budget detail the Council spent approximately 45 minutes discussing
various strategies and approaches to developing a balanced budget based on capital
acquisition, as opposed to expenditure reductions. Mayor Marks presented a proposal
regarding capital acquisition through a form of short-term borrowing; Councilman Valente
discussed his memorandum to the Mayor and Council dated June 28, 1993 regarding various
recommended cuts and alternative sources of revenue and Council, in general, discussed
approaches to the budget relative to combining cuts with revenue increases. No specific
consensus was reached following this discussion and from that the Council moved into
discussing specific line items in the draft budget.
Based on consensus, the Village Council made the following changes:

Mayor Marks indicated that there would not be a budget workshop on Thursday, July 15,
1993 based on the past practice that the Council not meet more than three nights a week
on budget workshop. Because Council completed Public Services Department review in one
night instead of the two nights scheduled and due to the fact the budget workshop schedule
is department specific and no other departments were scheduled for Wednesday, July 7, the
budget workshop scheduled for Wednesday, July 7, 1993 has been canceled.
There being no other business to discuss during the budget workshop, the meeting adjourned
at approximately 10:00 p.m.
