The second item is a $285 request to add <br /> to the gymnasti s equipment approved in last year's budget. A different type and <br /> size of mats is required than had originally been requested. Inflated prices <br /> have also created some of the cost increase. <br /> The Proposed amendment also includes the budgeting of $339 revenues from <br /> a N. C.

These funds are available because of personnel changes in the <br /> Cultural Arts Program. The programs have expanded beyond plans and additional <br /> assistance is needed. It also appears that this additional activity will pro- <br /> duce some excess revenues. <br /> 73 <br />
