the College Station Little League’s
request for funding to pay for umpir
ing, and discussion of possible ac
tion over a rate increase request by
Lone Star Gas.
Council member Homer B.
Adams believes the new budget for
next year will be a huge increase
from this year.
“The budget is going to be in
orbit this next year,” he said,
“mostly because of the new city
facilities that have been built.”
“These are the finishing stages
and the projections on revisions
which must be made,’said City
Manager North Bardell. “There will
be a pretty substantial increase in
the budget simply because the Col
lege Station population has con
tinued to grow this year. Also, the
cost of materials and supplies for the
city have gone up for us just as they
have for everyone else.”
The council must first work on a
base budget, Bardell said, which
consists of the basic finances and ex
penditures needed to run the city,
before added requests for service
functions can be added on.
“The 1979-80 fiscal year begins
July 1, so it must be worked out suf
ficiently in advance of that date.”
The rate increase request by
Lone Star Gas is also an important
item on the agenda, he said.
“State law requires that we must
reach an agreement with them in
120 days, or they can bring up thier
request to the Railroad Commis
sion.” he said. “We’ve naturally
been trying to negotiate with them.
The city of Bryan, however, now re
fuses to negotiate with them, so it’s
something the College Station
council is going to have to discuss.”
