Coleman" <colemanheavyconst@yahoo.com>, donpcoleman@yahoo.com, Jeff Goodwin <jeffg@completehomeconcepts.com>, Richie Benninghoven <rcb@usckc.com>, Ron Super <rsuper@kc.rr.com> Cc: Ben Drake <ben.rqbld@gmail.com> Board members, We have made the changes in the budget which the Board discussed yesterday at the special meeting. The revised budget is attached for your review prior to the Board meeting. As you go through the revised budget, please consider the following comments: 1. The compensation figure was not changed. Depending on the Board’s decision on funding the employees’ health insurance, the compensation figure will need to be adjusted. 2. The health insurance figure has stayed the same as in the current budget. The Board’s intent is to amend the budget prior to the August Board meeting. If the Levee District increases the compensation paid to Ben, Kevin and Gary to pay for health insurance costs, then this item in the budget will be reduced to zero. 3. The amounts shown in the preliminary budget for project-related engineering, legal and field observation services, has been reduced to zero for each item. The Board decided to pay any project-related expenses from the Project Reserve Fund. 4. The amounts shown in the preliminary budget for the reserve accounts remains unchanged. The revisions which have been made to the budget reduce the O&M portion of the budget by $11,212.00 and a slight reduction in the Collector’s commission. The overall effect of the revisions is to reduce the maintenance tax from $760,015.00 as shown in the preliminary budget to $749,700.00 in the revised budget. All of the figures relating to the installment taxes and the debt service payments remain the same as shown in the preliminary budget. The budget will be presented at the Board meeting tomorrow for your approval. Please contact my office should you have any questions or comments about the revisions made to the budget. Thank you.
