Motion by McLeod, support by Stanek to approve the financial reports as

presented.  All voting aye.  Motion carried.

 

Straw presented the 2004 Budget and Appropriation Request.  The request

for 2004 Appropriation is $62,000 with total revenues of $544,200.  This

is an appropriation increase of $15,000 over 2003, which would pay for

employee wage increases and increased cost of health insurance for

2004.  Total expenses are projected at $569,200, with a total deficit of

$25,000.  Straw proposes that $25,000 from budget reserves be used to

balance the budget.  Motion by McLeod that a recommendation be made to

the Finance Committee that an appropriation request of $60,000 be made

and that $27,000 be used from the budget reserves.  Support by Dawson.

Motion carried.

 

Ridership report was presented.  May 2003 passengers totaled 4,142.

Passengers for May 2002 were 5,840, a decrease of 698 passengers.  The

decrease is attributed to fewer special trips and loss of CMH clients.

 

Next meeting is scheduled for June 30th, 2003.

 

Meeting adjourned at 9:30 a.m.

 

Respectfully submitted.
