Minutes — Regular Meeting Solid Waste Advisory Board April 10, 2003 Approved May 8, 2003 5 . Alternative Finance Education Update Rehm states that there was material sent out on this no need for discussion . 6 . FY2003/04 Budget Update Wilson states that the budget submitted this year assumes a $30 fee which should generate an estimated $ 1 ,407, 600 . Even with that there has to be an additional fund balance appropriation of approximately $123 , 000 to balance the budget . If the Commissioners do not implement a fee this year we are looking at a $ 1 . 6 million reduction in services . Or they could subsidize it from the general fund . We debt finance about $1 . 5 million of equipment this year . The ice storm will generate over ($1 / 2 million ) of profit . There are no new programs for next year . There is money in for data gathering for getting the availability fee setup for next year . The only other thing put in the budget is funds to design the new administrative office . What' s not in there is the Southern Village recycling center which is being delayed another year . Another key issue is that we would love to get some of the reimbursement from the Green Tract this year . There is no indication of whether the money would be forthcoming . We are calculating a budget of $5,437,235 for FY03 -04 . Gist asks why there is no indication of increase of employee compensation for next year . Wilson replies that the department is part of the county' s pay and compensation system . The county has not decided what pay increase will be awarded . Once the manager submits the budget to the Commissioners he will plug in numbers for that . 7. Future SWAB activities/priorities/tasks - Deferred to next meeting 8 .
