Councilor Nicole Howard
brought this proposal to the
discussion.
“This is a city service,” she
said of the art center. “But it’s
not available to people with
disability issues…. I would like
to make a motion tonight that
we should support them.”
While some members of
the committee disagreed at
as much as possible.
“We plan to address the
shortfall by using the fund
balance as recommended by
the Fiscal Committee to avoid
service cuts,” Strope wrote to
the budget committee. “The
resulting general fund ending
balance will be $3,755,072,
which includes $300,000
of contingency funds and
$1,200,000 reserved for fu-
ture expenditures.”

in interest, according to the
packet provided to the bud-

The beginning cash bal-
ance for the City of La
Grande’s general fund is just
shy of $5 million, but will
end at $3.7 million due to
expenditures, 70% of which
account for labor costs.

“One of the things that came
out of the agency’s retreat was
the challenge of trying to dif-

at the business and technol-

to look at splitting those out,”
Strope said at Monday’s bud-

to the newly adopted Utility
Licensing Ordinance.
Under this ordinance, util-
ity providers must apply for a
license to operate in right-of-
way areas and will pay a 7%
fee to the city based on gross
revenue. Strope said he antici-
pates the fee to bring in an ad-
ditional $200,000 to the city,
and the raised fee will add 2
cents to the dollar on utility
bills for customers of Avista,
Oregon Trail Electric Co-op
and the City Garbage Service.
