Council Chair and Council Members <br /> <br /> May 15, 1998 <br /> Page 2 <br /> In our recommendations, we are incorporating six months of <br /> reduced TAT collections, reducing the expenditures for the <br /> employee retirement system and health plan contributions <br /> and deleting all provisions for salary increases. Because <br /> the bills have not been approved by the Governor, we <br /> propose that any balances be placed into a new account to <br /> be titled "Provision for Future Budget Shortfalls". <br /> In establishing the new provisional account, we believe it <br /> is a beginning to offset anticipated revenue losses in <br /> 1999-2000. Without the implementation of extreme saving <br /> measures, our County may not be able to continue with our <br /> "warm body" policy. We owe it to our hard working <br /> employees to take every step in preserving their job <br /> status with the County. <br /> We look forward to working with the Council in addressing <br /> the challenges before us. Should there be any further <br /> question, please feel free to call. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> S hen mashiro <br /> ayor <br /> encl. <br /> <br />
