The City began operations under the 2010 balanced budget on July 1. No increases in any City tax rates are proposed. City Council is expected to set the millage rate at its August 25 meeting. “Suwanee remains economically strong and fiscally sound,” says City Manager Marty Allen. “We did have to make a few concessions to economic conditions in our 2010 budget due to an anticipated decrease in revenues. We were able to balance the budget by decreasing expenditures and delaying some worthwhile purchases and programs. At this time, there is no need for any tax increases. We’re pleased to avoid passing along to our citizens any additional hardship during these difficult times.” Expenditures will focus largely on maintaining current service and staffing levels, implementing the 2030 Comprehensive Plan, and funding needed capital projects. Annual bond payments of approximately $1.62 million – for Suwanee’s award-winning open space initiative and new City Hall – account for 13.5 percent of the City’s expenditures. New general fund expenditures in FY2010 include: Marty Allen • $189,000 in additional expenses for operation of new facilities, including City Hall and a new public works facility • about $12,000 to continue operation of a digital records conversion and storage initiative • $61,800 for state-mandated stormwater requirements. One of the measures taken to offset an anticipated $482,000 decrease in revenues, due largely to declining proper- ty tax values and slower business growth, is a Citywide salary freeze. In addition, cost-saving changes to the City’s healthcare benefits package were made. Staffing levels are expected to remain the same; no new positions were added. Suwanee’s budget relies on anticipated rev- Where the money goes… enues; no fund balance will be used for operating expenses. However, a total of $591,200 Culture & Recreation ($287,450 from the general fund balance and 2.7% $303,750 from the water fund) is allocated for capital improvements to the City’s water system. The City has applied for federal grant dollars that Housing & Development may reduce the City’s contributions. 10.3% Public Works Suwanee’s general fund balance of about $7.3 17.6% million provides for approximately seven months of operating expenditures. “Due to sound finan- cial planning and controlled quality growth,” Debt Service says Allen, “the City of Suwanee has been able to 13.5% establish an appropriate ‘savings account’ and maintain financial stability.” In addition to its $11.3 million operating budget, the City has a proposed five-year capital General projects budget of more than $26 million, to be Government utilized to complete or undertake some 36 proj- Public Safety 17.6% Other Financing Uses ects.

In a write-up about Suwanee on its website, Money/CNN says that the community “works hard to be family friendly.” “The City of Suwanee has the whole package,” wrote Francena Maloney on Suwanee’s Facebook page. “We have parks, greenspace, award-winning schools, an involved and caring police force and a city government that is on the cutting edge.” “I have been in Suwanee 11 years and have watched it grow into an amaz- ing city,” Lynda Spencer wrote on Facebook. “Town Center is charming, the parks are wonderful, the schools are terrific – it's a great place to live and play!” Suwanee’s two Money magazine rankings [in 2007, Suwanee was ranked number 10] confirm results released earlier this year of the National Citizen Survey. The independent survey of residents was con- ducted collaboratively through the National Research Center, Inc. and the International City/County Management Association.

However, there are three crucial limitations in the literature: 1) The emotional characteristics of musical chills have not been explored, and are poorly understood; 2) musical chills have never been causally manipulated, and no theories have been tested; and 3) it is unclear whether chills are a unified psychological construct, or a set of distinct experiences, distinguished at the levels of subjective feeling, psychophysiological

  • An Examination of Essential Popular Music Compact Disc Holdings at the Cleveland Public Library
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 435 403 IR 057 553 AUTHOR Halliday, Blane TITLE An Examination of Essential Popular Music Compact Disc Holdings at the Cleveland Public Library. PUB DATE 1999-05-00 NOTE 94p.; Master's Research Paper, Kent State University. Information Science. Appendices may not reproduce adequately. PUB TYPE Dissertations/Theses (040) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC04 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Audiodisks; Discographies; *Library Collection Development; *Library Collections; *Optical Disks; *Popular Music; *Public Libraries; Research Libraries; Tables (Data) IDENTIFIERS *Cleveland Public Library OH ABSTRACT In the 1970s and early 1980s, a few library researchers and scholars made a case for the importance of public libraries' acquisition of popular music, particularly rock music sound recordings. Their arguments were based on the anticipated historical and cultural importance of obtaining and maintaining a collection of these materials. Little new research in this direction has been performed since then. The question arose as to what, if anything, has changed since this time. This question was answered by examining the compact disc holdings of the Cleveland Public Library, a major research-oriented facility. This examination was accomplished using three discographies of essential rock music titles, as well as recent "Billboard" Top 200 Album charts. The results indicated a strong orientation toward the acquisition of recent releases, with the "Billboard" charts showing the largest percentages of holdings for the system. Meanwhile, the holdings vis-a-vis the essential discographies ran directly opposite the "Billboard" holdings. This implies a program of short-term patron satisfaction by providing current "hits," while disregarding the long-term benefits of a collection based on demonstrated artistic relevance.

See the full gallery. This fictionalized story, based on the family life of writer James Jones, is an emotionless slice-of-life story. Jones here is portrayed as Bill Willis, a former war hero and now successful author who obviously drinks too much and is starting to experience health problems. Living in France with his wife, daughter, and an The Soldiers Daughter son, the family travels an unconventional road that leaves all of them as outsiders The Soldiers Daughter others. Preaching a sexual freedom, his daughter's sexual acceptance begins at an early age and betrays her when the family moves to Hanover in America. Her sexuality is definitely not the normal for American teens and gives her a bad reputation and outcasts her. Meanwhile her brooding brother struggles with his own inner turmoils about his early desertion in life. Only within the tight knit confines of his family is he comfortable to even speak. This is an sensitive exploration of the family and place. The Soldiers Daughter noticed that Bill Willis was the only father in the picture, Billy and Francis did not have fathers. As a coming of age movie it really worked- for not only does Channe lose some of her innocence- it starts in the tree house- she also is able to accept her coming into adult status- as is evidenced by dumping The Soldiers Daughter jock and losing some of her self- centeredness.
