I gathered from the discussion that the intent of the City Commission mm is to grant these agencies 1/12 of their current FRS allocation as mm a means to continue their programs at current levels until alternative funding sources could be identified. Attached is a resolution which ME accomplishes this end by allocating funds from the FY '78-79 Special mm Programs and Accounts, Contingency Fund as follows: PROC St. Luke's Overtown Day Care Dade County After School Dade County Community Schools Douglas Gardens TOTAL $ 2,292 5,719 16,002 5,834 8,238 $38,085 The City Commission also expressed a concern that ample funds be given to the International Folk Festival. In Fiscal Year 1977-78, the budget proposes an appropriation of $19,000 for this event. The executive director of the festival conveyed to the City Commission that $19,000 was not sufficient and that the festival needed $.34,705.00 to operate at its current level. Hence, in view of the City Com- mission's wishes, it is suggested that the difference of $18,000 be taken from the 1978-79 Proposed Special Programs and Accounts, City Wide Events, which has an appropriation of $41,650.

Young people are provided the opportunity to learn the basic fundamentals of the sport and to compete on local, national and international levels. Weekly amateur boxing matches are held at the Virrick Gymnasium. This division helps in the planning and coordination of the National Golden Gloves Regional Tournament. Budget Impact Statement The Boxing Division formerly a part of Parks and Recreation but transferred to Leisure Services for fiscal year 1977-78, brings a total of five (5) positions to the new department. The budget reflected here represents a $10,034 or 14% increase from its total of $69,320 which was budgeted in the part of Parks and Recreation for 1976-77. The increase is caused primarily by the provision of 3.5% and 52 salary adjustments for all positions and•the transfer of $5,427 in anticipated Motor Pool charges for two cars to this division. ,'I{lily Tapering Off Partly cloudy.

Rate at Pram Herald (MIN Sennas WASHINGTON Consumer prices continued upward in August, pushing the U.S. inflation rate to its highest level in three years. To make matters worse. the purchas- ing power of an average hour's pay declined, the Labor Department re- ported Tuesday. The Consumer Price Index to Au- gust was 7.91 per cent -higher than in August 1977. That's the worst in- flation since August 1075, when prices were increasing 4 more than S per cent. Despite that discouraging note, sumers have at least one reason reflect with favor on the August price picture. Grocery prices, the main cause of inflation during the first half of the year. actually de- clined by a tiny 0.1 per cent last month. However, the prices of other goods and services picked up the -slack. , iidedical can costs rose 0A per (President Proposes Export Plan ... • l B cent in August. and gasoline prices increased 1.1 per cent. Prices of natural gas. which President Carter wants to deregulate, rose 1,4 per cent. Costs of owning a home rose 1 per cent in August. For the last six months, these costs have been climbing at an annual rate of 14.3 per cent. largely because o1 higher mortgage interest rates. To combat inflation. the Federal Reserve Board has been raising interest retrain an attempt to make borrowing'piore expensive. Over-all, goods and services that cost $100 in 1967 cost $197.80 last month. In August 1977, the same goods and services cost $183.30. In a shorter -range comparison, prices rose 0.6 per cent from July to August. As a result. an average hour's pay bought 0.4 per cent less than in July, although still 0.3 per i ■ cent more than a year age. Government officials reacted rather pessimistically to Tuesday's statistics, from the Labe: Departs Vent. Barry Bosworth, director of the President's Council on Wage and Price Stability. said in a New York speech that inflation is "worsen- ing." He said that the 0.6 per cent rise in August was "tom very era- waging." John Layng, the senior price ana- lyst for the Bureau of Labor Statis- tics. noted that when food is elimi- nated from the calculations, the in- flation rate remains "stuck" where it has been for many months. Layng said he doesn't see the rate coaling down soon. Economists think that non-food prices are a better indicator of in- flation in the economy than food pricer. which often rise and fail er- ratically, as they have most of this year. Carter Administration officials. who last January predicted a 6 per cent rise in consumer prices for 1978. now are hoping to hold infla- tion to 8 per cent. The President has promised a strengthened anti-inflation program that aides say he will deliver by mid -October. The plan is expected to contain "voluntary" guidelines on wages and prices. although organized labor has said such guide- lines probably will not be sccept- able. Bosworth said Tuesday that Car- ter hasn't decided yet whether to include guidelines in his program. August was the second month in a row that food prices behaved moderately — they declined in July — after rising 1 per cent or more a month during the first six months of the year. The Labor Department said that, except for cereal products and dairy products. almost all other food categories declined, �11 1f 1 111 liana I�'iIlVh,dli slilullllmu1,difls 1,11111 II lent 1I1111 lill, 1111,1111 ,1.1 lj1 �l�e Miami herald 108 Pages e•syrwrecrnsTba Waal Nereid 10.0 9.0 8.0 7.0 6.0 5.0 4.0 • 1 • • I, r. 1976 I'1 11 1977 l iilldll hlh (III a 11.1411I1u,lf illf� ie�V id � Final Edition 20 cents 68th Year — No. 301 • 1 1978 Percentage Increase in pr,&.as during the 12-month period ending at bdGtt month on the chart. • THEFOLLOWING CLASSIFICATIONS ARE LISTED IN THE 1977-7R SALARY SCHEDULE AND_HAVE BEEN ESTABLISHED SINCE THE 19/S-76 SALARY SCHEDULE WAS PUBLI5HM: “).151 TITLE RAW 1306 ADMINISTRATIVE AIDE II 22 1309 ADMINISTRATIVE ASST.

The Department has developed the following Uniform Accounting System to comply with this mandate. All units of local government are required to implement this accounting system on October 1, 1978. The primary objectives in prescribing this accounting system to all units of local government in Florida are to provide a uniform classification of accounts and to bring lccal government accounting and financial reporting into conformance with generally accepted accounting principles. The uniform classification of accounts is designed to standardize financial information in order to facilitate the comparison and evaluation of financial reports. Whether the financial information is used in internal management reporting or external financial reporting, the uniform classification of accounts will accomodate the reporting function in both situations. However, the uniform classification will be especially important in external financial reporting because it will standardize the financial information of all units of local government. The following list indicates some of the numerous external users which require such information, and therefore, emphasizes the need for standardized data: 1. The Governor, Cabinet, and State Legislature in planning for state revenue sharing and other local aid programs. 2. State Agencies in the fulfillment of state laws and mandates: a. The Department of Banking & Finance b. The Department of Community Affairs c. The Department of Revenue d. The Department of Commerce e.

(2) Special Revenue Funds - to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources (except special assessments) or to finance specified activities as required by law or administrative regulation (e.g., state gas taxes). (3) Debt Service Funds - to account for payment of principal and interest on long-term debt serviced by general governmental revenue (not special assessment or enterprise revenue bonds). (4) Capital Projects Funds - to account for the receipt and disbursement of moneys used for the acquisition of capital facilities other than those financed by special assessment and enterprise funds. (5) Enterprise Funds - to account for the financing of services to the general public where all or a substantial portion of the costs involved are paid in the form of charges to users of such services (e.g., utility operations, some types of refuse collection and recreational activities). (6) Trust and Agency Funds - to account for assets held by a governmental unit acting as an agent or one in a fiduciary capacity for individuals, private organizations, and governmental units.

The cost of the tittle Havana Community Center would then be transferred to the General 1!'i%ed Asset Group of accounts. Florida Power and Light (FPL) Franchise Revenue During 1976-77, the City called and fully paid all outstanding Capital lm- provement Bonds, Series A-E and fully reserved all outstanding Orange Bowl Special Obligation Bonds. As a result, the bond covenants restricting the use of FPL franchise revenues no longer apply. In the past, principally because of the restrictive bond covenants, most of the FPL franchise revenue has been recorded in the Capital Improvements Fund. In addition, the expenditures of the Fund were restricted to capital improvements. In 1976-77, all FPL franchise revenue was recorded in the Capital Improvements Fund and transferred to other funds. Due to the above -mentioned changes in the activities of the Capital Improve- ent Fund, it no longer meets the definition of a ca ital projects fund,_ 9..e., "to account for the receipt_and disbursements of monies used for the ;acquisition of capital-facilitips.other than those financed by enterprise funds." In fact, in 1976-77 less than 6% of the total expenditures-of_the fund were-for_capital_improvement purposes. We _recommend that this fund be dissolved, and the receipt and expenditure ,or transfer of FPL franchise revenue be recorded in the General Fund. Utilities Service Taxes All revenue derived from the City's tax on purchases of electricity, gas, water and local telephone service is recorded in the Utilities Service Tax Debt Service Fund. Amounts in excess of reserve requirements are trans- ferred to other funds. The receipt of these taxes would be more appro- priately accounted for in a special revenue fund and the amount necessary to meet principal and interest payments and maintain reserve requirements transferred to the debt service fund. We recommend that the City examine the appropriate provisions of the bond ordinance to determine the legality of implementing the accounting proce- dures described above. If not in conflict with the ordinance, or if the ordinance can be amended, the establishment of a special revenue fund would be more appropriate to account for these taxes. Investment Income The City's accounting system pools all cash and investments in the Trea- surer's Fund. During the period covered by our examination, the City's
