Report Number: TR-82-81 Subject: Orono Business Improvement Area Recommendation: It is respectfully recommended: 1 . That this report be received; and 2. That the Orono Donwntown Improvement Area 's budget be reduced to $4,000 form $6,000 for the 1981 fiscal year; and 3. That the Treasurer be authorized to levy the additional $3,000 on the Orono Downtown Improvement Area in a special tax billing in October and November of 1981. Background and Comment: The Orono Downtown Improvement Area which was established in 1981 made an initial request for a budget of $1,000. This amount was then the basis of the levy on the members. Subsequently, their budget was passed in Council in the amount of $6,000 under resolution #C-725-81 ( #F-258-81) . This budget was established after the levy was made and therefore resulted in a under levy to the members of the Orono Downtown Improvement Area. i A discussion with the Chairman of the Orono Downtown Improvement Area made him aware of the aforementioned situation and a meeting of the Board of Management was held. The decision of that meeting is the subject of the attached letter. The Board of Management has requested that their budget be reduced to $4,000 for the 1981 fiscal year. The cost of the underground conduit originally estimated at $2,800 has now been reduced to $800. The Chairman indicates that Ontario Hydro has revised their estimate downward allowing for the reduction in this budget area. . . ./2 TR-82-81 . . ./2 They have, also, agreed to have the additional $3,000 levied in 1981 so that the Orono Downtown Improvement Area would not face two times the levy in 1982. These areas are self-supporting through direct levies on their members, and therefore any surplus or deficit would be carried over into the next year. Respectfully Submitted.
