Accordingly, the $6,445,009 of General Revenue Sharing Funds are proposed for inclusion in the city' s general revenue fund budget. The 1978 budget also proposes the expenditure of $79.9 million, or approximately 4.5% more than the 1977 budget. The proposed budget provides for basic city services, but in some areas personnel and service levels are slightly modified. No new programs are proposed. Modifications are proposed in library hours, while personnel decreases are proposed in most city departments. Ma.jor expenditure increases occur for debt service, elections, and pensions. The proposed budget is fully funded. Major spending sources are state and federal aid, the NSP franchise fee and the property tax. All sources except the property tax have increased. As a result, the 1978 property tax levy is slightly lower than 1977 .
