Garden City Recreation Commission seeks city bailout
Garden City Recreation Commission faces a budget shortfall of more than 382,500 dollars and asks the City of Garden City to cover payroll and accounts payable through 2015 and early 2016. A special City Commission meeting is set for 8:30 a.m. at the City Administrative Building to consider a two phase plan, including a proposed sale of three properties valued at 233,000 dollars to reimburse the city. The memo from Finance Director Linda Hitz details 2015 shortfalls of 216,299 dollars and 2016 shortfalls of 166,298 dollars with specific payroll and insurance liabilities. The plan would use the Community Trust Fund and property sales to fund obligations.
