PUBLIC HEARING
June 26, 1978 5.00 P.M.
The Public Hearing called by the Town Manager, convened at 5:00 PM.
The Town Manager read the notice of Public Hearing, copy attached.
In attendance were Elaine W. Roberts, Town Manager, Patrolman
Donald Kasten and Jamie Prilliman, reporter for the Delray News
Journal.
The purpose of this Public Hearing was the proposed use of the
Town's Federal Revenue Sharing Entitlement Funds for the 1978-79
Fiscal Year, which approximates $8,640.
At 5:15 P.M. Mrs. Roberts declared the Public Hearing to be
closed inasmuch as she had received no comments, either orally
or in writing.
She did go on to explain that last year's proposed figure in the
• general operating budget for Fiscal Year 1977-78 totaled $12,096.00
for Federal Revenue Sharing. The figure of $9,268.00 was for anti-
recession fiscal aid money wh ich can only be used for on-going
projects of two years in duration or longer. There are no longer
any restrictions on the Federal Revenue Sharing. Last year's
figure of over $12,000.00 compared with this year's figure of
$8,640.00 shows a substantial drop in estimate.
Mrs. Roberts daid if she receives no comments within the next
few days, she will probably propose to the Town Commission that
some of this money be spent to pave the west-south parking lot
behind Town Hall.. Also some could be used for cleaning the beach
and maybe installing some trash containers near the benches on
the bike-hike path.
