8-General Gov Non-Depart-2021General Government Purpose: This program is responsible for the non-departmental expenses of operating City Hall. These include the building maintenance expenses of the City Hall complex, such as carpentry, painting, plumbing, heating and air conditioning, and window cleaning. Expenditures that are not attributable to any one distinct area, such as liability insurance, and transfers from the General Fund to other programs to supplement operations are also accounted for in this program area. Issues, Trends and Highlights: This budget now contains the salary for a supervisor, a general maintenance worker, a painter and a contract for custodial services brought together to form a maintenance division supervised by Public Works. Some of the salary expenditures previously charged here were more appropriately moved to the Building Code Enforcement fund based on how much time they spend in each area. The current year budget was amended midyear to include funds to replace and upgrade the audio system in the Commission Chambers in the amount of $15,500. This budget includes $36,000 for a Grant Writer to assist the City’s staff in locating and obtaining appropriate grants.
