The Committee reviewed and discussed the 1986 Budget Requests
submitted by the following agencies:
Estes Park Public Library -The Library’s request for 1926
is $97,550 which is a 7%increase from 1985.The Library
Board is limiting employee salaries to 5%increases.The
most flexibility is realized in the book purchasing account.
The Library Board has determined failure to fund the book
purchasing account would result in not providing adequate
materials to maintain the current level of service.

the 1986 Budget,the Museum requested $48,140 which converts
to a 22.3%increase.The salary for the position of Curator

a monthly salary and no insurance benefits.The salary for
the position of Curator of Education is based upon a 75%
fulltime equivalent,with a monthly salary and insurance
benefits.A total of 9,781 people visited the Museum in
