Community Development Director Wallace presented an overview
of the budget. Mr. Wallace then proceeded to summarize the
budget on a program-by-program basis, responding to
Commissioners' comments and questions as they arose.
Commissioner Wozniczka stated a concern that while the
airport program was in the HRA budget, City Council Members set
the goals and objectives for the program.
Executive Director Prosser responded that the issue had been
brought before the City Council in the past but could be
revisited again.
Commissioners questioned the allocation of staff time to the
various programs. Mr. Wallace responded that a one-page document
summarizing this allocation has been prepared. It will be
provided to each Commissioner.

tax projection schedule on the LHN District.

Commissioner Wozniczka stated that he had a few issues
concerning the budget, including discussing the airport budget
with the City Council, the possibility of installing a metal or
rubber base at the railroad crossings in the LHN on 66th Street
and generally cleaning up the railroad tracks between 65th and
66th Streets in the LHN.
