Aswarmer weather approach-
es, just a reminder to check our
web site about reservations to
Bunnell Park. Also, the Transfer
Stationwill be openonWednes-
days for YARDWASTEONLY,
in addition to the normal Satur-
day hours/materials.
Soon,youwillbe readingmore
about our summer recreation
program. It is an outstanding
program,well-runwithgreat ac-
tivities. It isalsovery sensitive to
stateminimumwage regulations.
We employ about three dozen
seasonal park and pool staff,
most ofwhom receiveminimum
wage, or slightly above due to
experience factors. When the
wage increases, our rec budget
is greatly impacted.When I took
office four years ago, minimum
wagewas $7.25.Now it is $9.00,
nearlya25% increase.RecDirec-
tor JackieWhiting and theTown
Board have done a great job in
planningfor these increaseswhile
minimizing the impact on both
services and the tax rate.
With new increases set to be
implemented over the next few
years, we will have to either
reduce services, increase user
fees, or increase the tax rate
(or a combination of these) to
accommodate the impact on the
minimum wage increases. One
indirect casualty for this year-
Genesee Parkwill be closed as a
staffedparksite.Tobesure, this is
primarily the result of decreased
attendance at this park (it had
previouslybeen reduced from full
time to part time status). How-
ever, I would be less than honest
in saying the financial impact of
an increase in personnel costs of
nearly25%hadno relevance.The
budget has not been decreased.
Wearemerely shifting resources
towhere the kids are going. De-
cisions will need to bemade for
2017 and beyond.
