Consider an Ordinance by the City Council for
the City of Forest Park, Georgia, to appropriate additional funds in the amount
of $8,100.00 to cover added costs incurred in connection with Election
Expenses; to repeal all ordinances and parts of ordinances in conflict
herewith; to provide an effective date; and for other purposes
SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND:
The budget amount was based on regular elections, and expenses for
run-off elections were not anticipated. The requested appropriation in the
amount of $8,100 would provide sufficient budget to cover all actual election
expenses. The run-off elections caused
the total election expenses to exceed the budget amount.

an Ordinance by the City Council for the City of
SUMMARY AND
BACKGROUND: Additional funds will be needed for
the Public Relations account. The
current year budget amount is less than the prior year budget amount and this appropriation will provide for
community needs and Fort Gillem Redevelopment expenses.

SUMMARY AND

remainder of the fiscal year.

Consider a Resolution requesting authorization
for the Acting City Manager to sign a
Final Plat as approval of the City Council
of Forest Park for the subdivision of a commercial lot into (2) two lots
SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND:
A petition has been submitted by Navin Shah, President of Tarula
Investments, Inc. owner of Kings Inn Motel and Restaurant (formerly Sherwoods Bar and Grill) to subdivide the motel and
restaurant into two (2) parcels. Upon
approval of this subdivision, the motel and amenities will be located on a 2.66
acre tract, and the restaurant will be located on a 0.83 acre tract. This subdivision is being accomplished so
that the restaurant can be marketed by Tarula Investments, Inc. This petition has been submitted under CFPCO Section 8-7-13(f) Short-Cut

Consider an Ordinance by the City Council for
the City of Forest Park, Georgia, to appropriate additional funds in the amount
of $90,000 to cover increased fuel costs; to repeal all ordinances and parts of
ordinances in conflict herewith; to provide an effective date; and for other
purposes
SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND: The average cost for fuel for the 2004-2005 budget
year was $1.53 per gallon. The current budget year of 2005-2006 was figured on
that average.
Due to the escalating prices of fuel since the
early fall with relation to the hurricanes, these prices have continued to
soar. The current average for this budget year is $2.26 per gallon. We
had several purchases as high as $2.59 per gallon.
The increased fuel costs has extended the cost of
operation in the Fleet Services Division. The line item for Gas All Departments
(600-27-4900-53-1270) will need to be supplemented by $90,000 from the
unappropriated balance of the General Fund to get us through the remaining
budget year. Prices of fuel have been relatively stable over the last month or
so and as long as we do not have another natural disaster, this amount should
get us to the new budget year.
