Mr. McPherson reviewed the estimated structural, mechanical and electrical renovation costs for Phase I and Phase II of the proposed remodeling. It is estimated that the total costs for Phase I would be $334 ,500 which includes structural, mechanical, and electrical renovation of the basement, first and second floors, repairs to the roof, and some construction in the yard area to accommodate police vehicles. Phase II would involve the third and fourth floor and installation of air conditioning as well as additional wiring and heating and plumbing systems work for an estimated cost of $145, 300. Mr. Warden advised that grant funds were being sought, however, he indicated that such funds were scarce. He also reviewed the Proposition 4 legislation which will establish a new city's first full year of operation as its base year for determining its appro- priations limit for proceeds of taxes. He noted that the base year will have a major impact on the City's entitlement to future State provided funds as well as to retaining increases, for example, in sales tax revenues. If the City's base year is small, any surplus in succeeding years could be returned to the State. He felt that the estimated costs were well within the City' s budgetary capabilities for fiscal year 1980-81; including the $75,000 budgeted during 1979-80. ' Mr. Warden stated that the Council has approved the schematic plans for the basement and first floor and conceptually approved plans for the second floor. The next step is to secure construction ' drawings and bid specifications for Council approval. C. UNFINISHED BUSINESS ' 1.
