<br />2003 Recreation Program Budget <br />June 13,2002 <br />2 <br /> <br />· Special event programming that serves the community on a no cost basis <br /> <br />Staff in attendance at the work session will be Tom Moore, Michelle Olson and Joe Lynch. <br />Terry Post is on vacation and will not be at the meeting. Staff met on two occasions to discuss <br />this Budget. Tom, Terry and I met recently to discuss the approach and need for direction from <br />the CoullciL <br /> <br />On a related note, Council needs to consider what to do about the Day in the Park event. The last <br />two years this has been the annual civic event. Prior to that, Day in the Park was a smaller scale <br />event to recognize some improvements in one Park. It has grown into something else. Council <br />nccds to decide if this is an event sponsored and run by the city, or is it an event that should be <br />run by an outside group of volunteers, with some financial support from the city? While the <br />financial commitment is $17,500 for 2002, the physical commitment is a whole lot more. <br /> <br />Budgeting always comes down to choices. Faced with a choice of an increase of approximately <br />$17,000, where does the Council want this money to go; the Recreation Program, D.A.R.E. or <br />Day in the Park, or all three? <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br />
