He <br /> also stressed that the could not cut the secretarial position citing that it <br /> was a union position and a cut would cause great personal hardship to the <br /> person in the position. Fudala asked the Committee to consider restoring <br /> $1,900 to his budget to make the Asst. Planner a 20-hour position with benefits <br /> or $5,000 to make it a 25-hour a week position giving benefits and retirement. <br /> Jim noted that it would really cost more because of the benefits package. <br /> Jim stressed the need to wait and see what happens with the debt exclusion; <br /> perhaps he could come before the Committee again on the 14th of May prior to <br /> consideration of the omnibus. Jim said at this time the Committee was not in <br /> a position to commit to anything. Tom was agreeable with this suggestion. <br /> Carole noted that a letter had been received from Senator Golden regarding <br /> the effects of cuts in local aid and a survey form needed to be completed. <br /> The survey requested specific information on the school budget.
