meet the needs of students at Calhoun, Strickland, and McMath Middle Schools, and
WHEREAS, there is a need for after school programming for pre -teen and teen children
existing in the City of Denton, as expressed by parents, to provide these educational opportuni-
ties in a safe and supervised environment, and
WHEREAS, the City of Denton, through its Parks and Recreation Department, has
worked cooperatively with DISD for many years to provide for the needs of children in Denton,
and
WHEREAS, the City's Parks and Recreation Department and DISD are able to provide a
recreational educational program at Calhoun, Strickland, and McMath Middle Schools, which
includes transportation of participants on field trips, and
WHEREAS, the City Manager advised the City Council that such revenue and expendi-
ture was not anticipated prior to the adoption of the 1997-98 budget and could not have been in-
cluded in the original budget, and

gram beginning in August, 1998, and after school programs for this age group have been recog-
nized as a critical need on both a national and local level, and

Texas Local Government Code provide that a governing body may authorize an emergency ex-
penditure as an amendment to the original budget only in a case of grave public necessity to meet
an unusual and unforeseen condition that could not have been included in the original budget
through the use of reasonably diligent thought and attention, and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the failure to expend the funds discussed above
will create a grave public necessity and requires the 1997-98 budget to be amended in the
amount of twenty-one thousand five hundred nine dollars ($21,509 00), NOW, THEREFORE,
