LEBANON — The Lebanon City Council is considering a list of potential budget revisions for 2010-11 to save $596,340.

City Manager John Hitt outlined the planned reductions during a council work session Wednesday. The idea is to maintain adequate general fund reserves, he said.

The list includes reducing the city’s contingency fund and making cuts to police, library, court and senior center budgets, among other items.

“I made a proposal of what I was planning on doing and the council was agreeable to that,” Hitt said. “We don’t have any set time in which to bring it back before the council. I assume it would be in November or December, after we start to receive our property tax collections.”

The proposals:

• Reduce contingency budget by $221,340, to a total $667,846.

• Sell $160,000 worth of city property.

• Leave open one patrol officer and one finance position, saving $107,000.

• Eliminate the “Partners for Progress” grant, $25,000.

• Cut $20,000 from the police vehicle fleet and $16,000 from the police materials and services budgets.

• Pull back $15,000 that had been set aside for senior center improvements.

• Reduce administration materials and service budget by $14,000.

• Reduce Internal Services General Fund transfers, $14,000.

• Eliminate municipal court improvements, $4,000.

• Reduce library materials and services by $3,000.
