Mayor/Chair Johnson inquired how the State restored the funding and if it was through special legislation. The Deputy City Manager - Administrative Services responded the Big Five, which is the Governor and the Leaders of the Assembly and Senate, came up with a package of cuts and revenue enhancements, including creative accounting and federal dollars that are not yet secured; as part of that package, the legislature churned over the summer for more than 100 days and the program has been put back in through the Big Five Conference; the budget conference committee met on October 6th and it is unlikely that the money will be taken back out; the matter will be confirmed after the October 7th vote. Councilmember/ Commissioner Matarrese requested the method of helping remain ready in hopes of being able to restore adult education and recreation programs. The Interim City Manager agreed; stated even though there is a respite this year, future action is uncertain; when impacts to the School District and City are known, staff will report back to the Council/ Commission. Councilmember/ Commissioner Gilmore inquired if, and how much, the deficit was closed. The Deputy City Manager - Administrative Services stated the State claims to have closed the approximately $19 billion deficit with creative maneuvers and federal money, which still has to be secured.
