ported with cost to the City included. Report will be
completed and returned right after the mid-year budget
review.
4 . SOCIAL SERVICE FUNDING PROGRAM PROPOSALS 1988/89 -
The Committee recommended a phase-down program for the
agencies listed (attached) . The total city funding recom-
mended was $40 ,000. The Committee recognized that previous
overall funding was $60,000 and that agencies were notified
last year that funding would cease within three years. The
Committee further recommended that no solicitation of re-
quests be made for funding by the Park, Recreation and
Community Services Department.
5. COMCAST REPORT - The Committee reviewed a report
from Mr. McDonald and Ms. Whalen regarding COMCAST position
on recent Cable TV issues. The report generally indicated
they would cooperate with the City. The exception was that
the City would not be allowed to audit their books. Ms.
Whalen contends that the former agreement with Group W does
not apply. The City' s position is that this agreement, with
changes that were agreed to by both parties, does apply.
COMCAST did agree that gross receipts and general operation
could be reviewed. A Plan of Action, Franchise status and
history were provided to the Committee (attached) . This was
a "walk-on" item.
Meeting adjourned.

Subject SOCIAL SERVICES FUNDING PROGRAM - PROPOSALS 1988/89 Date January 14, 1988
Approved Date
As we begin to prepare the proposed 1988/89 budget it is necessary to
approach the Ways and Means Council Committee for direction on funding
of the Social Services Contracts for 1988/89.
Specifically the corrittee needs to be asked for endorsement of the
Program, and for direction on whether request for proposals will be
open to all agencies throughout the City or only to those already being
funded.
In the budget year 1987/88 the following agencies were funded with the
stipulation that there would be a cutoff of funding over a three year
period from the City Social Service Program budget.
Casa Ramona, Inc. $ 5,976
Senior Citizens Program 5,724
Emergency Food and Medical 7,260
Supportive Services
Boys Club
y $11 ,928
Rolling Start, Inc. 5,520
Merri Mixers, Inc. 2,160
Frazee Community Center 5,100
Family Services Agency 16,332

I request to be placed on the next Council Ways and Means Committee
agenda to discuss and receive direction on this matter so that the
funding can be incorporated into our budget preparation process.
Your assistance is appreciated.
