The band will be handling monies from the sale in two ways: 1. Donors may contribute items to sell with the band receiving 100 percent of the receipts. 2. Donated items may be tagged with the donors name and the Budget strategies to save services without more tax It's budget time again and Orem City Council members and City officials of-ficials are putting in lots of extra hours trying to make sense out of dollars in preparation for the public hearing May 26 on a proposed $23 million City Budget. About 12 major issues are being discussed as the City seeks to increase in-crease revenues to replace the loss of Federal Revenue Sharing. The proposed pro-posed budget was developed with the concept that services would be maintained main-tained and that there would be no tax increases. Accomplishing that feat will take some juggling of general funds and development of new sources of revenue. Phil Goodrich, director of administrative services, outlined the following budget issues for Fiscal Year 1987-88: 1. Should General Fund revenues be increased to maintain existing service ser-vice levels? The tentative budget proposes pro-poses an increase of approximately $394,000 from: misc. fees-$35,000; bicycle licenses-$15,000; administrative administ-rative fees-$145,000; emergency medical med-ical system-$ll,000; ambulance fees-$42,000; fees-$42,000; cemetery-$36,000; warrant service-$50,000; utility hook-up-$50,000; apartment business licenses-$10,000. licenses-$10,000. "Without increasing these fees," said Goodrich, "It will be necessary to reduce services normally paid out of the General Fund." 2. Should both CEDO and UVIDA be funded for economic development programs? With the tight revenue situation, it is important that the City Ci-ty focus its efforts on programs that are most effective. Last year, the City Ci-ty gave CEDO $140,000 to fund both UVCC celebrates bicentennial of Constitution Utah Valley Community College will begin its celebration of the Bicentennial of the U.S. Constitution with a presentation by Dr. J. D. Williams, member of the University of Utah Political Science Department, Depar-tment, Monday, May 18. The event, which will be held on the Orem campus in the Student Center Cen-ter Ballroom, will be held from 2 to 4 p.m., and is entitled "The Miracle at Philadelphia." Williams will also entertain en-tertain questions at the conclusion bf his presentation. Sponsored by the Social Science Commiteee, the Honors Program Advisory and Planning Plan-ning Committee, and the Bicentennial Bicenten-nial Committee at the College, Williams is chairman of the Bicentennial Committee at the University of Utah.

UTAH SURPLUS 993 North Industrial Pari Dr. Orem, Utah sales money will be divided 5050 between bet-ween band and donor. Band director Karol Palmer also appeals to others who may wish to contribute to the event. "As all students must pay their own way to represent the state at this wonderful celebration, the community is asked to support this event generously. If you dont have items to donate for the garage sale but would like to donate to the trip funds, you may make a contribution by sending your check to "Friends of Orem High School Symphonic Sym-phonic Band, co Commercial Security Securi-ty Bank, Orem Office, 185 South State St., Orem, Utah, 84058." Money also will be accepted at any branch of the bank, said Karol, and it will be forwarded for-warded to the Orem Office. "All contributions con-tributions are greatly appreciated." UVIDA and CEDO programs. UVIDA received $17,500 and CEDO $122,500. While UVIDA continues to play an important im-portant role, it is apparent that CEDO is much more effective for Orem, according ac-cording to City Manager Daryl Berlin. CEDO is requesting a funding level of $130,000. 3. Should the City enhance its Community Education and Information Informa-tion Programs? A tentative budget or $40,000 has been set aside for new logo and letterhead, bumper stickers, six issues of newsletters, semi-annual reports, and news releases. 4. Should the City provide more health benefit coverage for retired employees? 5. Should the City's existing Capital Program and General Fund services be maintained through the continued application of a 2.7 percent Franchise Tax? This program provides pro-vides $700,000 annually for the capital program and $245,000 for General Fund services. 6.Should the City establish a storm system utility? A $2 levy per month per property will generate approximately ap-proximately $350,000 per year to begin to deal with storm system problems. According to the Public Works Department, it is necessary to complete com-plete a Storm Water System Master Plan to fund critical storm water projects. 7. Should the City continue to pay the total retirement Contribution if retirement contributions increase or decrease? The City recently received receiv-ed notification from the State Retirement Retire-ment System that contributions would increase for Police and Fire effective July 1, 1987. These increases amount to .43 percent increase for Police and 2.35 percent increase for Fire. If the City does not pick up these costs, then the employees will pay these increases in-creases at a potential cost of approximately approx-imately $35,000 annually. 8. Should the City continue to be a member of the North County Solid Waste District? The City recommends recom-mends to continue the membership. Impact is $1.06 per month for all residential consumers. 9. Should additional expenditures be made out of the General Fund to market the Fitness Center? Funds in the amount of $34,000 have been included in-cluded in the Tentative Budget for this. 10.

Allen, chairman of the History Department at BYU, speaking speak-ing to the Orem Women's Club Wednesday at the Scera Lounge. "We should hot impose current ideas and interpretations on events of the past," he said. "Just because people peo-ple thought and acted differently in a different time does not mean they were 'bad' people," he continued. "Those actions and attitudes were acceptable ac-ceptable at that time." Today's standards have taken a long time to develop, the speaker said. Many things were different 120 years ago in out local society. Understanding these changes helps us understand our behavior today. He urged people to read original quirements? The City has not been able to meet the current requirements specified in a six-year Capital Program. Pro-gram. Streets, curb, gutter, sidewalks, street lighting, parks, buildings, sewer and water systems, and storm draim systems requirements re-quirements need to be addressed. 11. Should the City continue its Service Agreement with the Pro-voOrem Pro-voOrem Chamber of Commerce? proximately two years ago, the City Ci-ty entered into a Services Agreement that provides 15 percent of the Business License revenues to be used us-ed to fund a variety of services provided pro-vided by the Chamber. Over the past 18 months a number of concerns have arisen due to the consolidation of the Provo and Orem Chambers of Commerce Com-merce into one entity. Some individuals in-dividuals believe that it is difficult for the Chamber to adequately promote and serve both communities when both communities are in direct competition com-petition over a number of issues. Should City employees continue to receive appropriate compensation? At least $154,000 is recommended in compensation programs. This would be the equivalent of 2 percent raises for supervisors and below 1 percent for division managers and above. Citizens are encouraged to attend the Public Hearing if they have any concerns on these budget issues.

"We find surprising things," he said, "We so want things to be like what we would like to think they were, that we accept distorted versions of events." He contributed Mark Hoffman's Hoff-man's success in selling forged documents to this need for documents to support what we want to be true.
