General Fund $200,470 (E)
It is requested that a budget in the amount of $200,470 be added to the police department
expense budget and $ 123,038 be added to the General Fund revenue account to reflect the
funding of 10 additional police officers added as part of phase 2 of the COPS Universal
Hiring Grant to be hired February, 1997.
The initial grant proposed the hiring of 50 officers over the next 5 years. The COPS office
notified the city of an opportunity to accelerate the hiring of the second group from July 1,
1997 to February 10, 1997. It is proposed that the $ 77,432 (25% match and associated
outfitting and processing costs) be funded from a projected increase in property tax revenue.

Asbestos Abatement: Train at Pioneer Park
Upon discovery of friable asbestos leaking from the engine on display at Pioneer Park, the
City became liable under state and federal laws. That liability was mitigated by taking
immediate abatement action. After an accelerated bid process the asbestos abatement was
initiated in compliance with strict federal and state regulations. Total cost of the abatement is
$35,000.
PCB Disposal
Storage of used transformers containing PCBs at the De Long Street Yard over the past ten
years caused the City liability under federal regulations. The mitigation of that liability
required the incineration of the transformers at a cost of $30,000.
The city's self insurance fund has no appropriation for this type of mitigation expense.
The city has recently received $50,000 from the settlement of an asbestos removal project. It
is recommended to appropriate this revenue and apply it toward the cost of these projects.
