Councilman Gregory said there had never been a report as how much money had been received; that we keep spending the money again and getting less back from sates.

Aldrich said the City has received about one million dollars in Federal and State funds. Discussion followed that intent had been to contract with other cities but this presents problems and will cost more money and that the City does have a fine system.

The intent of th-e changes is not so much wages and salaries as it is overtime, etc. These changes have been discussed with the Employees' Association. It is understood that this is to be a temporary arrangement to be implemented as of July 1st and will be brought up again, and is in anticipation of the Fair Labor Standards Act being upheld. The new schedule will correct errors in salary steps which have crept in over the years. In answer to Councilman Gregory, Mr. Mitchell said the Resolution would be adopted on the condition that Sections 3, 4 and 5 not be implemented.

July 16, 1975 Page 5 AUTHORIZE PURCHASE ORDER FOR $335.00 TO MODIFY AIR CONDITIONING IN CITY HALL 00- Councilman Waldo said members of the Sister City Committee were present to give a report. Mr. Jerry Kitchel, representing the Jaycees, said that the soccer team lacked funds to go to Valle de Bravo. In the past two 2) years the true cultural exchange aspect has not been implemented, possibly due to lack of communication. To keep the project alive and to save face he asked that Council consider a $2,000.00 loan to send the team this year. He suggested that the program be revamped. Councilman King said that initially all aspects of a Sister City program were considered; fund raisers were promoted, but there was a lack of community involvement and interest. City Attorney Flandrick explained that the City cannot lend money to an organization or a private individual. He recommended against this as there could be a possible taxpayers suit. Councilman Waldo said the citizens committee had a fund raiser but instead of the $2,500.00 needed, they raised $800.00 and after expenses they realized $550.00. They have revamped the committee and the Jaycees are now actively involved. They have two choices, either raise $2,000.00 or do not send the team this year. In any event the City should send a representative to Valle de Bravo to arrive at a workable arrangement, with guide- lines as to how many people will be authorized for both cities, and also outline a mutually beneficial program. Mayor Hamilton said there was a question of legality and that this was not budgeted and that efforts to raise funds should have been made earlier. At 8:30 p.m. Mayor Hamilton declared a recess and said the Sister City subject would be contineud. 00- At 8:42 p.m. the City Council reconvened in regular session Roll Call: Same as at the beginning of the meeting. 00- Jesus Moreno said they hoped to make the games a tradition; that Councilmen Waldo and King were aware of this year's plans; that the City knew about this last year, and the committee was asking for $2,000.00 this year. In answer to Councilman Waldo, Mr. Flandrick explained that pursuant to the contract with the Chamber of Commerce they could perform an additional service conducting the Sister City program, that what they do with their funds is their affair.

The committee should have a regular program if they are going to proceed. If not, drop it. The City's unap- propriated funds must be guarded or they will disappear. Councilman Gregory had attended many Sister City pro- gram conferences and they are usually community ac- cepted as funding comes from the people. She was dis- appointed that Mrs. Cisneros had not been allowed to do the job. Mrs. Cisneros was disappointed and dis- couraged that the program fell due to lack of community involvement. She suggested fund raisers such as the Band uses street number painting; and if the budget allows, the weeding of landscaped areas. Mr. Carpenter suggested that the youth wash city cars, instead of sending cars out of town, however. Captain Hebert said this function was now performed by the street department. Kevin Gare asked if they raised $1,000.00 could the City give or loan the rest of the money and the City Attorney again explained that the City could not do this but the Chamber of Commerce could be the vehicle to put on a Sister City program. Council discussion followed that this was a worthwhile program, however, the City cannot legally fund the activity; that authorizing transportation for two City representatives would depend on available money in the Council transportation budget for 1974-75. Further discussion followed that round trip air fare from Los Angeles to Mexico City is $200.00 and that a written agreement as to the number of delegates, etc., should be prepared to present to the new Mayor of Valle de Bravo.
