City Council Minutes <br /> May 3, 2011 <br /> Page 4 of 8 <br /> He stated that the fund is currently soluble at $3300. Larry explained that <br /> increasing the benefit level to $3300 will have no affect on the future levies <br /> because the fund has the funds to sustain that level. <br /> Council Member Ryan stated that the timing of this request is problematic. <br /> He stated that it seems that the 2010 Audit report should be completed <br /> prior to the benefit level being determined. Council Member Ryan stated <br /> that he is not arguing against the request but that he would like some <br /> more time to review this. Council Member Ryan spoke about the future <br /> impact on the City.
