He then indicated that fines <br />usually range between $300 and $500 for the first offense and rise proportionately with <br />each additional offense. <br /> <br />Motion b Council Member Broussard Vickers seconded b Council Member <br />Capra to approve Resolution #02-002 with a fine of$500.00 for the second violation. <br /> <br />Council Member Nelson commented that she would go higher than that amount but is <br />fine with the $500.00. <br /> <br />All in favor. Motion carried unanimously. <br /> <br />Council Member Broussard Vickers asked that Tom Thumb and the other tobacco <br />licensees be invited to the discussion on setting fines. <br /> <br />3. Resolution #02-003, Transferrin!!. Funds <br /> <br />Mayor Swedberg indicated this matter had been discussed at the work session and <br />explained that the deficit funds needed to be adjusted and approval of this resolution <br />would draw down the general fund balance to bring these accounts into balance. <br /> <br />Council Member Capra asked if these were the funds that had a line item in the budget <br />called deficit funds. Ms. Bender indicated Council had expressed a desire to clear up <br />some of the old deficit accou.'lts. <br /> <br />Mayor Swedberg said he was comfortable with correcting the accounting but would <br />prefer not to draw down the general fund, ifpossible. <br /> <br />Council Member Broussard Vickers asked how much money was left in the budget for <br />deficit accounts. Council Member Nelson indicated that the final amount left in the <br />budget for the deficit accounts was $2,000. <br /> <br />Council Member Broussard Vickers asked how far above or below the budget. <br /> <br />Page 17 of25 <br />
