<br />Item 10: Continued budget discussion.
<br />Commissioner Willhoit offered the following proposal: He suggested
<br />that the Board start from the standpoint of the Manager's budget and with
<br />the schools additions at $353 per pupil, plus $340,000 in Capital Outlay
<br />'for Chapel Hill and $250,000 for County Schools' Capital Outlay. Additions
<br />to this would be $20,300 for the Board of Elections, $36,000 for Recreation
<br />Municipal Support, $5,000 for agencies support, and $5,860 for Agriculture
<br />4-H Aides. The total of these additions is $514,335 over the Manager's
<br />recommendation. Mr. Willhoit proposed that the Board subtract 3 cents
<br />(which is $212,760), the difference is $301,575. He then suggested that
<br />the Manager's budget of $12,157,110, subtract Exam that budget the revenues
<br />for particular line items which produce revenues or receive revenues from
<br />the State, so that you are looking at a net County appropriation from these
<br />items. After the revenues are subtracts, the balance would be around $g.9
<br />millions. $301,575 from the $9.9 million taould be about 3 percent.
<br />Mr. Willhoit then suggested that all items in the budget be cut by
<br />3 percent. Further, he suggested that the difference from the Orange County
<br />Capital Outlay be taken, as well as the $7,000 from the Sheriff's budget,
<br />which amounts to about $50,000 and could be spread across the other items
<br />where it is not possible to cut 3 percent. This proposal would call for a
<br />10 cent tax increase.
