Mr. Kueny gave an overview of the draft budget and thanked staff for their
work to produce the document.
• A discussion among the Councilmembers and staff focused on:
• A forthcoming report to Council on use of the General Reserve
Fund over the past three years, which is approaching $5 million;
• $2 million needed to meet Governor Brown's drought order;
• The drawing down of the Library Reserve Fund;
• A decision needed on the purchase of I-pads for Council use with a
budget of $6,000 per year;
• A discussion and decision on the $21,000 subsidy to the Home
Acres/Buttercreek parkland/weed abatement situation.
• Correction to stamped page 47 to remove the $50,000 expensed
for Server Replacement as this has already been funded;
• Correction to stamped page XIX in center paragraph to read FY
2015/16 General Fund budget;
• Continuing to support the Film Liaison with $1,000 contribution;
• Increase in all water costs and a forthcoming report from staff on
reduction in turf and reduced water usage by the City; and
• Possibility of a one-half cent County tax measure on the 2016 ballot
that would benefit Moorpark and the need to educate the public on
the impacts.
In response to Councilmember Pollock regarding the budget cutback of
$25,000 to the High Street Arts Center, Hugh Riley, Executive Director of
the High Street Arts Center, stated this decrease in funding is painful, but
manageable, if partially offset by rent reduction for 33 High Street.
UNANIMOUS CONSENSUS: It was the unanimous consensus of the Council to
continue the $1,000 support of the Film Liaison.
UNANIMOUS CONSENSUS: It was the unanimous consensus of the Council to
balance the General Fund Budget deficit of $191 ,375 by using the General Fund
surplus from Fiscal Year 2014/15.
