In addition to the savings in the general fund outlined below,just looking at the Electric Fund if we hold the line items to the 2017 actuals - it will save over $33,000 in each year. WOW! That is a lot of infrastructure. Christy Terry Mayor, City of Seward 907-422-7071 PO Box 167 Seward, Alaska 99664 From: Christy Terry Sent: Thursday, November 7, 2019 10:08 AM To: Scott Meszaros Cc: Brenda Ballou Subject: Friday's budget meeting noon So it isn't a surprise- I was thinking about how to balance the budget and on Friday I am going to suggest rolling back ALL Travel/Subsistence (7302) and Education and Training (7303) to 2017 actual levels - saving $91,855 in the General Fund alone. But do so for enterprise funds also to see savings in all of their budgets. Within this item, I would restrict out of state travel to Council Approval only and also restrict employees getting college degrees i.e. taking college classes without Council approval. Brenda- if possible could you send these comments out to all of Council so it isn't a surprise to them either. Christy Terry Mayor, City of Seward 907-422-7071 PO Box 167 Seward, Alaska 99664 1
