Budget: Falken asked Beuseth how she planned on transferring the surcharge money, the
fund balance, and the $95,000 from the county over to the city. Thompson anticipated the fund
balance of $125,000 was going to be transferred to the city at the beginning of the year along
with the $95,000. The surcharge money would be sent quarterly. Vogel stated the county has
$151,000 which can be transferred over to the city. Falken suggested we deplete the fund
balance of $125,000 and have Thompson send a bill to the county for the $95,000. Beuseth
stated the surcharge money can transfer quarterly.
Thompson and Beuseth are notifying all the telcos to start billing the city.

recurring bills.
