That report TR-75-89 be received; and 2. That approval be given for the reallocation of funds from the contingency account to the various salary and benefit accounts within the 1989 budget to reflect recent benefit and monetary settlements made by the Town with its employees (unionized and non-union personnel) . BACKGROUND & COMMENTS: I During the 1989 budget deliberations, $300,000 was provided in the contingency account to offset increased costs realized from settlement of the Town's collective agreements with unionized and non-union personnel, and approved merit increases and adjustments. Now that the collective agreements have been signed and a revised pay scale adopted for non-union employees based upon performance evaluation, it is appropriate at this time to reallocate a portion of the lump sum provided in the contingency account to the various salary and benefit budget accounts based on actual 1989 rates to date and budgeted values. This budget reallocation will permit members of Council and Staff to better evaluate actual costs incurred versus 1989 budgeted expenses. 2 126 Page 2 TR-75-89 1989 BUDGET REALLOCATION Any amounts not required to meet the salary and benefits settlements will remain in the contingency account to meet other emergency funding situations.
