SUBJECT: PRELIMINARY MUNICIPAL BUDGET – 2002
Administrator Groch presented a Preliminary Budget for council review. Each
department was looked at, and reviewed Budget to Actual. It has become apparent
that the Recreation Department is in immediate need of a new truck, and also that the
Water Department is in need of two new vehicles. Based upon this information it was
decided that the Recreation Department would get a newer truck, and that the Water
Department would get one new van this year, with the possibility of the other one
being put into next year’s budget. The Roads Department would have to make do with
the truck they have for another year, and a new grader purchase would be taken out
of the budget for this year.
The Administrator was directed to re-allocate $21,000 from the Capital Reserve to the
Fire Reserve (West Lorne fire truck) and add $27,000 to the Road Reserve. The
changes will be made for review at a future meeting.
