Budget and Finance Committee Meeting, Tuesday, November 16, 2010 at 7:30

Please be advised that a Budget and Finance Committee Meeting has been scheduled for Tuesday, November 16, 2010 at 7:30 PM in Yonkers City Hall Council Chambers, 4th Floor.
The following items will be on the Agenda:

1. Continuation of status report on the release of funds from the Restore NY grant for the Philipse Manor Historic District from Planning Department Commissioner (as Finance Commissioner understandably did not have enough information or knowledge to answer adequately at the November 9th meeting) and an update on Restore NY grant for the old Library building on Main Street.

2. Continuation of review of First Quarter Overtime as it pertains to Police, Fire and DPW. (While the Finance Commissioner addressed the Council and presented his budgetary analysis at the November 9th meeting, none of the Commissioners were present to answer specific questions about their departments.)

3. Continuation of the discussion on the retirement incentive and how many COY positions were refilled.

4. Update by Commissioners/Department Heads on exactly what monies came to the City from the Stimulus Package and where funds have been allocated.

5. Any additional items that may properly come before this Committee.

We respectfully request that the Mayor direct the appropriate Commissioners/Department Heads/staff to attend this Budget & Finance Meeting and properly address the Council on issues pertaining to their respective departments.

We also request that this Budget and Finance Meeting be televised.
