Dear Mr. Tripepi,:
In order to provide you with. some preliminary budget infor-
mation.relative to 1981-82 law enforcement costs, we have
reviewed crime statistics, population trends, called for
services, and other pertinent law enforcement.considerations.
Based on this analysis, we believe that your level of law
enforcement service is adequate, hence, we are not recommend-
ing any increase in service levels for Fiscal Year 81-82.
As you know, we cannot accurately predict, at this time,
what the final budgeting rates for'services will be during
the 1981-82 fiscal-yea r. However, we have been advised
that the primary factor affecting rates will be salaries
and fringe benefits.. 'Ina'smuch as'the prior 'employee contract
was a two year package, which is unlikely in Fiscal Year 1981-
82 negotiations, we recommend that your law enforcement budget
be calculated on'an estimated 15% increase should adequately
cover major costing/rate contingencies.
The final budget rates should be available to us by July 15,
at which'•time a_ more definitive breakdown will be provided
to you.,
As always, we will be happy to meet'with you at any time to
discuss this subject in depth,.
Sincerely,
PETER J. P.ITCHESS, SHERIFF
Howard L. Tait, A/Captain
Commander,. Temple Station
#4320 .(_3200). BUILDING. REGULAT IONS
Robert Dickey, Assistant City Manager, stated that there had
been some bad posting and the estimated 'actual is anticipated to
be $81,250 and nearly all of that would be offset with building
permit fees, and therefore for the 1981-82 budget we would like
to revise that amount back,to'$100,000.which is the same budget
figure for 1980-81.
