____ --- --
The City Council met in session on this date at 4:00 P.M. in
the Conference Room at Yakima City Hall.

'Brown, Betty L. Edmondson, Dick Jarms, W. K. "Pete" Moore,
'Don Schussler and Dr. Bill Simmons.
The Council gave consideration to unfunded budgetary concerns
for 1976. Re the request from the County for support for
District Court Probation Services, Director of Management and
Budget, Charles Rains, reported that he could find no apparent
justification for the request, considering that the City was,
in effect, supporting the service through property tax collected
by the County. It was suggested, however, thatonemeans of
' support would be to encourage legislative support for raising
II/
fees. General discussion followed with the final conclusion
that these services should not receive any funds from the City
in 1976.
: Re the voice privacy system budgeted at $12,000, the Police
iChief reported on the reliability of the program concept and
its effectiveness in terms of controlling crime. In his judgment,
the system works well and would be a deterent to eavesdropping
on police radio control. The Council agreed that the Voice
!Privacy System be funded from FRS funds for 1976.
!Re the other unfunded budget expenditures for 1976, the Council
made the following decisions:
