Council, committee discuss city budget By DEAN WHEELER Of the Emerald On May 20, the Eugene voters turned down a proposed city budget which was $2.2 million over the allowable 6 per cent limitation. Last Thursday the City Council’s budget committee, made up of 16 members, 6 council members and 10 citizens ap pointed by council members, met to discuss how to change the budget to make it acceptable to the public. City Manager Hugh McKinley started the meeting by presen ting the council with figures noting an increase in the amount of funds the city is collecting. From utility rebates, cash balance, July 1, and other sources, the City of Eugene will gross $60,000 over expenses which it didn't know existed before last Thursday night. Mayor Les Anderson, a member of the budget com mittee, told his fellow members that indications pointed to a gain of $240,000 from car registration if the bill passed the state legislature as it appeared it would.

Editor Marcus Wright Business Manager After reviewing these figures, Mayor Anderson proposed that the committee make no cuts in the budget, but return the issue to the voters with newly found $300,000 as the only alteration. Tom Williams, city council member, told the committee that he felt “we have an obligation to make some definite reductions.” As a result of this and similar statements from other com mittee members, the committee listened to the city ad ministration list which things in the second level of the five-level budget it could live without. After an extensive debate, the committee decided upon the reduction of a tax increase of $0.52 per $1,000 property value. The original budget vote was on $9 24 per $1,000 property value. The committee tentatively cut over $75,000 from the budget, including $20,000 allocated for the summer employment of high school and college youths. The committee adjourned after deciding to meet again Thursday at 6:30 a m., in the McNutt Room. At that time they will review what the state legislature did with a bill on car registration fee increases, and the committee members will decide on when to ask the city council to hold an election. McKinley said a second vote could not be held prior to June 24. Over 2,000 to graduate The University’s June graduating class totals 2,611 candidates for baccalaureate and advanced degrees.
