DZSCiJSS ION OF 1964 BiTDGET:
Mayor Nee announced this item was the discussion of -che 1964 Bixdget and inquired
if there were anJone present who wished to be heard, Mrs. Jo3�ce Mitt�lstaedt �
of the League of Women Voters wa4 present and stated they had been given to
understand that the City Council has consider�d dra�ping from the proposed Bud-
get a full L-ime Park Director. It was explalned to the City Council the League
of Womer. Voters had studeed the recreatzon faczlities ir Frid�ey. Mrs. Mattel-
staedt read to the City Counc�l this report� that they do favor the hiring of
a fL�ll tlme dixector �ho aould be in chare of Recreational and Park Programs
and they do recommend the hiring of a full time Park Direetor. Mayor Nee ex-
plained 'ne was not ccrtain how much the Council had saved by cuttin� thas person
out of the IIudget. Mrs, Mittelstaedt explained they h�d felt 7t would be a
savin^ to hire a full time director by elim�nat�ng part time activii;ies and
having all on one salary. Councilman Johanson inquired if Mrs. Mittelstaedt had
seen a copy of the Budget for 1904 in yrhich there was $82,000.00 budgeted fox
Parks and Playgrounds. Mayor 7`dee �nquired how much the Recreational Budget had
been reduced. The City Manager replied it had been reduced by �3�32�5.00. Mayor
Vee inquired of Mrs. Mittelscaedt ii they kere proposzng one person y7ho would
be the Parks and P]aygrounds Director. He was told this was correct� they would
accept thls and there taould be better coordina�ion obtalned. Counezlman Johanson
explazned the numbers of emplp�rees and directors who would be ti�orking part time
the followin� summer. Mayor Nee explained that part of the problem was that
Fridley doesn't get any money from the school system for recreation ancz lnauired
�ihat would a Full ti�e person be doing in the wintertime. Mrs, Mittelstaedt
replied they felt this activity �rould keep l�im busy plann�ng� etc., plus winter
recmatlon aei,ivities. Councilman Wolke sUated the proposal was to eliminate
part of the Park Program ancl include recreatzon; this would eliminate the posi-
tion Dick Donlin held. Councilman Johanson stated the Park Director pretty �
well supzx�vises �he nei�hborhood parks and all the miscellaneous ,7obs. Council-
man 4iolke explalned the biggest problem is the City Council was talkzng �E32000.00
for Farics and Playgrounds and that is about 13�0 of the total Bu�get and it was
qul�e a bit of money. He further stated that most of the people are concerned
about the cuttzng of the Budget and understanding they c�ere all interested in
the Recreation Program� they have just so mueh money to spend. Councilman Jo-
hanson suggeated keeping the item of the Parkc and Pla}�grounds in mind and go-
ing over the balance of the Budget. The City Manager suggested the Council con-
sult with the Park Board before maYing any changes as they don't believe a com-
binatYCn Park and Recreation Director would be the answer� that they had thought
there should lae a fu7.1 t�me Parl; and Recreation ➢irector� their argument bein�
Mr. Messick couldn't fully supervise tPe P.ecreation Prog'rarn� he couldn't buy
the equipment-, watch the budget and all these otiher dutie� and do a thorough
job on plamm�g. Councilman ��lolke eaplained the reason for this is that �t
was secondary to NIr. Messicl< and others and af they had a fulltin�e man, this '
aauld be tiis �ob and he :�oulci have a s�.ary to compensate hlm for his efforts .
Councilman Sheridau znqulred regarding the Police }3udget and stated lt u;as be-
ing incrPasea 60%. A discuss�_on �ras held s•egarding the r,eylace�-�
ments for 1963 ar�d Mavor Plee stated the budget iaas actually being Increased
about li0%. ^ihe Clty Mana�er explained the increase �n salaries amovnted to
about �11,000,00. Caunc�lman tidolY_e inqulred of the total �rowth zn population
fo-r Fridley durin� the prevlous year. The Clty Manager replled the figure
from i:he Planning Commi�sion early this ycar was 19�502 people and tYie esti-
mate Prom Nor::i��vestern Be11 'Pelephone-Co.� was someVihere around 23�000, that �
would be a gro�dth between 3�000 to �;,000 people. Councllman Johansor req_uested
oF the C�ty Council that two men be dropped from the Police Budgei,. The ques-
tion saas ra�sed by resideni;� present why the Ci,y Council should cut the Bud-
get at all and Councilman Jo:�anson replied the Crty Manager had altaays pre-
sented to l,he City Council what he ielt was a ver,y good budget and he had
never found fault vaith his bud�ets bUt tt was tmposs�ble to gzve a free kand
i7ith the Budge�. Pflayor Nee si.ated this tiaas the proposal of the Pollce Dc�-
parrmenz to achie�Te the scheduling or ttro men in the polzce cars and it ri�d
Ueen conside-red a week pretnous and Council had agre�d to it. Council:nan Jonanson
replied that he had misu�,derst,00d l�a that zt stlll mlght take two years to put

the people that havF notj�in,3 ta say aboUt tiie oudget are at thelr mercy. Coui7-
cilr,�n Sheridan explained to the City Counc�l he had tr�ed to ati;ack thls rtem
irom d�fferent positlons and adding four :�ew men from tihe outsa�le iaould mean
