Council wants to continue to work on cost savings measures and hopes Council will support the formation of a committee that would work with the City Manager to come up with cost savings measures. Requested that the formation of a Committee be placed on the Agenda for the first meeting in July.

Will be voting in support of the budget based on the formation of the Council budget committee. Vote on motion: All yeas Motion passes 2.
