November 18, 1968
Honorable Nayor and City- Councilmen
CITY OF BRGOKLYN CENTER
7100 Osseo Road
Brooklyn Center, Minnesota 55429
Gentlemen;
Submitted herewith is the annual budget for the City of Brooklyn Center as adopted for the year 1969 in its
final form. The budget was adopted at the culmination of a public hearing which was completed on October
7., 1968.
It is worthy of note that this adopted budget comprehends a $200,000 appropriation to the recently established
Capital Projects Fund thereby commencing the City on a new and exciting era of its growth and development.
Based upon the most recent information from the County Auditor's office relative to Brooklyn Center's adjusted
assessed valuation figures, the total proposed levy of 1969 general taxes is equivalent to a mill rate of 50.94
mills. It should be noted that the 1969 mill rate will be slightly less than that of 1968, but substantially the
same as the City mill-rates which have prevailed since 1962.
Based upon the adopted budget, the City tax levy on an $18, 000 home in Brooklyn Center will amount to $61.28
which is approximately $.2,,00 less than the 1968 City_ levy on an $18,000 home. It is very important to emphasize
that this tax rate relates only to the City levy which has historically constituted only 1796 of the total property
tax paid by Brooklyn Center property owners. The large majority of a home owner's property tax bill, historically
about 83 is attributable to the school district tax levy and to the 'Hennepin County tax levy.
Respectfully submitted,

LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL PROPOSED 1969 BUDGET
August 29, 1968
Honorable Mayor and City Councilmen
7100 Osseo Road
Brooklyn Center, Minnesota
Gentlemen
Submitted herewith is the proposed budget for City operations for the ensuing year of 1969.
It is suggested that th budget proposal reflects-the full emergence of a new,era in the
evolutionary development of our community. Brooklyn Center has evolved from the residential
era of the 1950's anti early 1960's with its attendant factors of: (l) rapid population
growth, (2) financial prit3rity on provision of fundamental needs such as sewer, water and
streets, (3),,a severely unbalanced tax base with proportionately little industrial and
commercial support, and (4) an inward oriented general populace, legitimately more con-
cerned and .occupied with becoming established and.settled in homes and neighborhoods
than with relating to the .community and its ability to provide those services normally
associated with an urban society. From this residential era, Brooklyn Center has evolved
at an increasingly rapid rate into a new era.of commercial- industrial development with:
(1) an attendant sharp decrease in the rate of population growth, (2) a trend towards a
balanced tax base with greater industrial and commercial support to the extent that in
1969 approximately 40% of the tax base is non residential valuation as contrasted to
approximately 15% in 1961, and (3) a general populace which is beginning to look outward
M for new and expanded services and related supporting facilities.. Evidence.of. the developing
outward look is found in the.results,of the February 1968 Jaycee Community Attitude Survey
wherein a majority of citizen response indicated support of a community capital improve
ment program.
Fundamental municipal necessities have now been largely met, and the City-Council-has
through the years prudently refrained from imposing capital expenditures on top of
community development costs, with the attractive result that the City's financing
_7
capacity has been reserved while a more balanced tax base is being achieved. In a
financial sense, the time has arrived where the citizens of Brooklyn Center can
feasib y,consider the implementation of a capital improvements program if they so
desire and authorize.
It,is going to.be recommended that the City Council establish a Capital Projects Fund
to serve as a repository for capital improvements appropriations. Further, it is
recommended in.this budget proposal that the sum of $200,000 be levied and appropriated
to the Capital Projects Fund. It is intended that the C.I.R.B. proposal be.updated I
and that an improvement schedule and financing plan be formulated and presented to the
City Courw l for its consideration during the later part.of
The City-.-Assess-or reports a 1969 taxable assessed valuation of $20,891,320 which
represents -an._increase of $4,740,426 over 1968.-. For the seventh year,
the mill rate s- proposed to be held essentially level; the proposed 1969 mill rate
of 51.36 mill-swill yield $1,073,030 in property tax revenues. Estimated 1969 non
property tax�xevenues of $734,232 will serve to balance-proposed 1969 appropriations
in the amount of n,607,262.
T.he- proposed $305;4'54 increase in proposed appropriations represents the afore-
mentioned $200,000__capital projects.levy, with-the balance of the increase attri-
butable primarily to labor costs. The proposed addition of three police positions
juvenile officer,.detective, and patrolman, plus a sharp cost -of- living increase
influencing salary settlements., .accounts'for the.proposed 1969 labor cost increase.
Program expansion costs consist primarilyof a proposed $12,214 increase in recreation
programs.
It should be noted ;that this budget proposal reflects an across- the -board salary
increase of,4 This percentage does not constitute a final recommendation, but was
selected merely for-the purpose of developing workable budget figures. The proposed
Mayor and Council contingency account contains funds for estimated individual salary
adjustments. -Recommendations relative to salaries will be submitted to the Council
in the near future.
-8
At the proposed mill rate of 51.36 mills, and upon making appropriate adjustments for
indebtedness and applying the 35% tax relief feature, the 1969 City tax on an $18,000
homesteaded property would amount to $61.78 as contrasted to $63.24 in 1968 and $92.92
in 1967.
Sincc- r e.apprec ation is extended to all staff members who so diligently contributed
to the publishing -of this budget proposal and particular recognition must be extended
to Finance Director Paul Holmlund for his invaluable assistance and advice.

N OF REVENUE NUE ESTIMATES
I. GENERAL PROPERTY TAXES;
a. Current Ad Valorem Levy (Real and Personal Property Tax),
The following assessed valuations have been verified by the office of the Hennepin County Auditor as those
valuations which are to be used in computing the 1969 mill rate;
ASSESSED VALUATION
1967 1968 Increase
Real Property 15, 242, 320 19,340,587 4 098,267
Non Exempt Personal Property 1,267,866 1,296,451 28.585
16,510, 186 20 j 637,038 126.852
Exempt Personal Property
(May 1, 1966) 306.708 306,708 0
16, 8 6,894 20,943,746 4,126,852
The assessed valuation used for computing the 1969 mill rate is $20,637,038. The 1967 Tax Reform and Relief
Act provided that the holder of personal property is given the option of choosing to exempt either his inventory
or equipment from the personal property tax. The City will receive a replacement of $16,994 in 1969 from
State sales tax revenues in lieu of taxes on the exempted personal property. The 1969 replacement is based
or the City's exempt personal property at May 1, 1966.
During 1967, the City Assessor conducted an equalization appraisal of all property within the City of Brooklyn
Center with the result that the assessed valuation ratio for Brooklyn Center as reported by the County
Assessor's office amounts to 32.7°! as contrasted to the 33.33 %regulation established by the State tax
Commissioner. In addition, Brooklyn Center has experienced a considerable amount of commercial and apart-
ment construction during the past year. In aggregate, the 1968 assessed valuation increase of $4,126,852
represents an increase of 24.5% over the 1967 valuation. In computing the anticipated revenue from the
property tax, a value of $20,944 is employed as the yield from one mill of tax. The adopted budget comprehends
a total tax rate of 50 mills, wi th an anticipated re venue yield of $1,067, 542 from property taxes.
SUMMARY OF PROPERTY TAX REVENUES AND MILL RATES
Year Revenue Mill Rate Year Revenue Mill Rate
1962 $470,746 48.54 1966 $690,346 51.'62'-
1963 561,236 50.12 1967 804.850 51.62`

1965 650,053 49.80 Adopted 1969 1,,067 50.94
b. Penalties and Interest on Tax Bills
The amount of revenue to be derived from this source in any given year is a function of the general state
of the national economy, and thus difficult to estimate. However, analysis of revenues received in
previous years and experience to date in 1968 prompts the current estimate of $10,000.
II. BUSINESS LICENSES AND PERMITS
Revenues from this source are derived through the issuance` of regulatory permits and licenses by the City
to business establishments. Included in this category are liquor and malt licenses, cigarette licenses,
garbage licenses, taxicab licenses, heating licenses, well drillers licenses; food handling licenses,
service station licenses, motor vehicle dealers licenses, bowling alley licenses and miscellaneous
business licenses and permits. Based upon past and current experience, it is anticipated that revenue
from this source will amount to 6, 000 during 19 69.
III. NON- BUSINESS LICENSES AND PERMITS
Revenues from this source are derived through the issuance of permits and licenses b the Ci for
g p Y Y
purposes other than to operate a business. Included in this category are: dog licenses, building permits,
heating permits, sewage and water permits, plumbing permits,' well permits, electrical permits,
certificates of occupancy and miscellaneous non business licenses and permits. In August of 1967, an
estimate of $30,000 was projected for 1968 revenues. An evaluation of revenue experience through July.,
1968 indicates that the previous projection was pessimistic and it would appear that 1968 non business'
licenses and permits revenues will amount to $50,000 for 1968. Therefore; an estimated revenue of
$50,000 has been anticipated from this source in 1969.
15
IV. STREET USE
At the present time, this category comprehends only the, issuance of bicycle licenses. Licenses are issued
on a biennial basis on even numbered years and therefore, it is expected that the 1969 revenue will amount
to only $650.
V. COU'�T'FINES
This category comprehends those revenues received from fines imposed for traffic and ordinance violations I
Estimated revenue from this source is a net of $24, 000 after allowing for_deduction of transaction charges
set by the Hennepin County court system.
VI. INTEREST
Revenues in this category represent the anticipated earnings of the General Fund from temporary investments.
The estimate for 1969 is $4,000.
VII. RENT
Items included in this category include rental fees assessed for use of various public facilities, rental
charges to Public Utilities for office space, and equipment rental charges made to special assessment i
projects and to the Public Utilities Division. Since revenue from equipment rental charges made to special
assessment projects is a function of citizens petitioning for improvement projects, a precise estimate of
revenue from this source is extremely difficult. Based upon past experience, however, it has been determined
that rent revenues will amount to $20, 000 in 1969.
VIII. SHARED TAXES
a. Cigarette Tax (see-Liquor Tax)
b. LLguor Tax
One -fourth of the state sales tax on cigarettes is credited to a special fund for apportionment to counties,
cities, villages., boroughs, and urban towns. Thirty percent of state liquor taxes is credited to and I
apportioned from a similar fund to the same governmental units. These taxes are apportioned by the State
Auditor on February 15 and August 15. The taxes are distributed to the municipalities on a per capita basis.
The League of Minnesota per Municipalities estimates the capita distribution for 1969 will be $1.95 for
P P P
cigarettes and $1.48 for liquor. On this basis, anticipated revenue would be: Cigarette tax $58,700;
Liquor tax $44, 500,
c. Mortgage Registry Tax
This tax consists of 15 cents per $100 of the base amount of all real property debt secured by mortgage.
It is oll.ected by the County Treasurer. One -third of the amount collected is returned to the municipality
in which the mortgaged property is located. It is estimated that $6,000 will be generated from this source.
d. Gasoline Tax State Aid Maintenance)
The highway user taxes consist of three separate levies: the State Gasoline Tax, Motor= Vehicle Registration
Fees, and Mobile Home Registration Fees. These taxes are apportioned upon the following basis: 62.4%
to the state, 28.6% to counties, and 9% to municipalities with a population in excess of 5,000, of the
municipalits' share, 50% is distributed on the basis of "money needs" related to state aid system street
construction, and 50% is distributed on a per capita basis... The street maintenance distribution to Brooklyn
'Center in 1969 is expected to be approximately $20,000.
e. Excise Tax
The 1967 Tax Reform and Relief Act provides that one- fourth of the amount raised by the state general exise
tax shall be distributed to townships, cities, villages, boroughs, counties and school districts, but not
less. than $37 million annually. The State Auditor is required to e stimate the amount available for distri-
bution in 1969 on or before September 1; 1968 and he is to notify all' potential recipients of their share of
the distribution by September 20, 1968. The distribution of this tax is on a per capita basis.
Brooklyn Center will receive a 1969 distribution of $55.31 per capita, or $159,873.
IX GENERAL GOVERNMENT SERVICES
a. Plattinq Fees
The subdivision Ordinance requires a fee of $25 plus $1 per lot to be paid upon the submission of a
proposed subdivision document for consideration by City officials.
fficials The current estimate of 200 is based
upon past experience.
b. Zoning and Special Use Charges
The Zoning Ordinance establishes certain fees to be paid by applicants for rezoning requests, variances,
special use permits, and plan approval requests as a means to defray costs associated with processing
17
the applications. It is estimated that $800 will be received from this revenue source. i
c. Assessment Searches, Map Sales, Etc.
During the course of the year, the City-is requested to furnish information regarding
the amount of special assessments levied against various parcels of property within
the City. When this information is requested by someone other than the property owner,
a $2 search fee is charged.. The City also sells maps, photostats,-etc.
the revenues of which are reflected in'this,item,, Upon past experience, it is ,estimated
that $1700 will be generated from this source.
d. Engineering and Clerical Fees
Revenues in this category are derived from a percentage charge made against improvement-
projects designed.or administered by the Engineering Division, as well -as against
street improvements financed through the City's share of State Aid Funds.. Based'upon
past experience and the anticipated program of.next year, it is estimated.that this,
activity will generate $60,000 in revenues.
e.v Police Towinq`..Charges
When a' vehicle that.has.been °.towed or stored by Police order is claimed by the owner,
the owner must pay,_the,:,expenses involved in the towing and /or storage. It is anticipated
that $1300 will be recovered from vehicle owners in 1969. Recovery of towing and
storage charges for unclaimed'' icles is accomplished through a police auction of ,the
vehicles. Income from police auctions is shown under the `item of other income.
X. RECREATION FEES
The revenue estimate of $23,325 is detailed in the budget request submitted by the
Department ,.ofI.Par_1-,s;_ and ;Recreation.
XI. REFUNDS AND REIMBURSEMENTS
a. Civil Defense
The provisions of the Federal Civil Defense Program provide for a reimbursement to local
units of government -on the_._.basis` -of fifty percent of the costs for approved equipment
i
and personnel. The amount of 4,039 represents the Federal share of eligible` -Civil Defense
expenditures for 1969. 18
b. Public Utilities Administration Reimbursement
The proprietary nature of the Public Utilities operation, and the corresponding enterprise
type of accounting employed requires that all costs of operations be reflected. An
anticipated revenue of ,480 represents a charge to the Public Utilities Fund for
administrative and supervisory costs. A detailed breakdown of the method of cost allo-
cation employed is set forth at the back of the Revenue section.
C. Labor Charged to Special Assessment and Outside Charges
It is the policy of the City that the Street Division of the Public works Department
performs the grading and base work on all residential street construction projects on a
force account basis. The Street Division Labor costs are posted to the individual projects
and eventually recovered by a special assessment levy. This revenue item is therefore a
function of the extent to which street construction projects are initiated by petition of
property owners. Based upon past experience and upon 1968 experience to date, it is
estimated that $25,000 worth of labor will be expended upon such special improvement
projects and reimbursed to the City as a revenue in 1969.
d. County Library Buildinq Maintenance
The City Council has tentatively agreed to sell the Brooklyn Center Municipal Library
to the Hennepin County Library System; hence it is expected that the Hennepin County
Library system will assume all costs of maintenance of the library facility during 1969
in anticipation that the City will enter into an agreement with the County Library Board
to maintain the library facility during 1969. This budget proposal includes a library
maintenance appropriation and anticipates a reimbursement of $15,000 from Hennepin County
in 1969.
e. Other
Throughout the year, the City receives a variety of small reimbursements for miscellaneous
items and services. Based upon a review of previous experience, $1,500 in revenue is
estimated for 1969.
XII. TRANSFERS -IN
a. Liquor Earnings Transfer
It is proposed that $115,000 be transferred to the General Fund from the anticipated
19
earnings of the Municipal Liquor Stores: 'In 1967, the total net earnings of the Liquor
Stores was $123,836.
b._ Unappropriated Surplus
The past practice of _funding a small portion of annual operating expenses from surpluses
accrued over past years is again recommended for 1969. An analysis of the allocation of
General Fund and Liquor Fund surpluses which are available for use in the 1969 budget
is set forth in the rear of the revenue section. A total of $75,000 is recommended for
appropriation from this source in 1969.
XIII. OTHER INCOME
Included in this category.a.re revenues received from a variety of sources, but which
individually yield very little. it is estimated that $2200 will be realized in 1969.

a. Debt Retirement $55,497
The fo I 1 owing levies which have previously been authorized_ by the City Council comprise this
egpenditure:
1. State Loan $1,233 Amount required for 1969 interest and principal payments for 1949
loan from the State of Minnesota for the initial construction of the City building: on
Lyndale Avenue.
This is the last year that this levy will be required.

2. Library Bond Redemotion -0 It is antitipated that the Library will be sold to

payments on certificates issued in 1965, 1966, and 1967 for purchase of Fire, Police and

b. Poor Re lief $4,000. j
The method used -to determine the amount required to maintain the Poor Fund 1969 operation is
as follows: The fund had cash and investments at 12 -31 -67 in the amount of $7,377. Added
to this amount was the 1967 tax levy collectable in 1968 of $7,000. From this amount was
subtracted estimated 1968 expenditures of $6,000. The result of these' computations show a
projected surplus carryover of $8,377 for 1969 operations. In addition to the carryover,
it is recommended that $4,000.be levied in 1968 so that a total of $12,377 be available for
1969 operations.

increase in retirement benefits. The Act allows.the increase of the present base service
pension of $40 per month to a monthly pension of not more than $120 per month, nor less,
than $90 per month. Since at the time the proposed budget was prepared, no changes have as
yet been Made to he bylaws a ravis`on s aAe the budget assuming a $130 per m nth
pension base upon a stateNernt of a.n en bya n City Council.
e. Policemen's Pension Fund $53,

MAYOR AND COUNCIL
Function
Under the Council Manager Plan" of government as established by the City Charter, the Council
exercises the legislative g e power of the City and determines`' alfi° 'matters of policy. The Council consists of
the Mayor and four Councilmen.
Proposal for 1969
The professional and consultant fees appropriation which provides for special planning studies,
consulting services to advisory boards and commissions, and such other outside professional assistance
as may be required is proposed for a $1500 reduction from 1968. The reduction reflects the decreased
need for consultant services by C.I.R.B. The proposed 1968 appropriation for subscriptions and member-
ships has been reduced approximately $500 as a reflection of a reduction in Hennepin County League of
Municipalities dues 'and the transfer of Management Information Service cost to the Administrative Offices
account.

ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICE
Function
The 4dministrative Office provides the general administrative services required for the management`
of City' affairs, Activities include, but are not limited to, preparation of agendas, minutes and other 'tems
of information desired by the City Council, planning, central purchasing, personnel administration, processing
of inquiries and complaints received from the public and overall management of City operations.
Proposal for 1969
The 1969 Administrative Office recommendation does not propose any additions to the staff. The printing
and publishing item has been adjusted upward on the basis of current experience and upon the anticipation that
there will be additional activity in this area during 1969. The recommendation for travel, conference, schools
and training reflects a current level of activity and has been especially concentrated in the training and seminar
activities. In addition, it is anticipated that a number of policemen will continue to take advantage of the educa-
tional reimbursement feature of the college incentive program,
The Capital Outlay recommendation comprehends the acquisition of a new copy machine which should
facilitate the reproduction of records and documents.
Costs related to the 1969 Administrative Office account, in addition to the operating appropriation, include
a total of $1,962 for the redemption of certificates of indebtedness issued in previous years for the acquisition of
a 1966 Ford SfMYon Wagon and a 1967 Chevrolet Station Wagon which is being leased to Civil Defense. Civil Defense
reimbursement from State Civil Defense to the extent of $690 per year is reflected as revenue in this budget.

OFFICE OF THE ASSESSOR
Function
The Assessor and his staff have the responsibility, to establish values for all real and personal
propRrty within the City for the purposes of taxation. The Assessor is appointed by the City Manager
and th6 appointment is subject to the majority vote of the City Council.
Proposal for 1969
Due to a shortage of space within City Hall, the 1969 Budget Proposal for the Assessor's office
does not anticipate any change in the existing arrangement whereby the Assessor's office is maintained
at his home. Based upon current experience however, it has been found necessary to increase the
recommended appropriation for part-time field and office help.
During 1968, the City Assessor began devoting his full time to the assessing g 9 es g
of the City. It is therefore recommended that compensation be established in relation to comparable
full time assessor's salaries as set forth in the comparison table in Appendix I. It is further recommended
that financial consideration be granted to the factor that the assessor provides for office space zwithin his
home

POLICE PROTECTION
t Function
The primary function of the Police Department is to enforce applicable federal, state and
municipal laws within the City of Brooklyn Center. In addition, the department is charged with the
prevention of crime, the recovery of property, regulation of non criminal conduct and the provision
of non regulatory community service.
Proposal for 1969 3
The Police Department recruest for 1969 provides for the addition of 6 additional policemen
1 detective, 1 juvenile officer, and 4 patrolmen. During the consideration of the 1968 budget proposal,
it was recommended that the matter of a juvenile officer be evaluated during the 1968 calendar year for
possible inclusion in the 1969 budget; such an evaluation has resulted in the recommendation that a
Juvenile officer be appointed within the Police Department.
The commission of more serious crimes within the City during the past few years also makes it
necessary that we consider expanding our investigatory capacity, hence, the recommendation that an
additional detective classification be added to the Police Department in 1969.
It is also recommended that one additional patrolman be authorized for the Police Department
in 1969, thereby permitting more coverage in the patrol division. There is substantial and realistic
justification for these recommendations on Pages 34 through 38 of the Police Department budget
request. It should be noted, however, that there exists a severe space shortage in the existing
Police Department facilities and it is likely that appointments to any new positions which the Council
may authorize may be predicated upon some manner of commitment for additional space and facilities.
The recommended increase in the general supplies item is primarily due to the cost of equipping
new officers if approved as recommended. The recommended increase in the furniture and equipment item
is represented by an approximate $3, 000 cost to convert our police radio base station to a new area -wide
police radio system. The Council has previously directed that this item be considered as a 1969 budget
proposal.
63
Proposal for 1969 (continued) Police Protection
The 1969 proposal comprehends an amount of $4,368 to fund the educational incentive program
established last year by the City Council. The program has been most encouraging in that a number of
officers are attending college courses and further, college trained people are responding as candidates
for the Police Depr tment.
The 1969 training item will provide in excess of 600 hours of specialized courses for Police
personnel. Also, it is expected that each officer will receive a minimum of 50 hours`of in- service
instruction on a variety of current, topics..
Costs related to this account in 1969, in addition to the operating appropriation, in 1
P g c ude a
total of $1,361 for redemption of certificates of indebtedness issued in previous years for the acquisition
of police equipment and the amount of $63,709 (including the recommended 3 new policemen) for 1969
actuarial funding of the police pension.

FIRE PROTECTION
Function
The Brooklyn Center Fire Department is charged with the responsibility of providing fire protection
and conducting fire prevention activities. The department is comprised of a Chief, Assistant Chief, Fire,
Marshal, 2 training officers, 31 volunteer firemen and 5 probationary firemen.
Proposal for 1969
The 1969 proposal is relatively unchanged from 1968. The furniture and equipment item consists of
numerous small items as well as clothing equipment and hose; the recommended acquisition of fire hose will
permit the department to fully meet the recommendations of the Fire Underwriters.
Costs related to this account in 1969, in addition to the operating appropriation, include a total of
$7,234 for the redemption of certificates of indebtedness issued in previous years for the acquisition of
fire equipment, and $37,415 for 1969 funding of the fire relief pension.

STREET MAINTENANCE GARAGE
Function
The Street Division of the Public Works Department is charged with the responsibility of maintaining
all City streets, snow and ice removal and street and traffic sign installation and maintenance. The Equip-
ment Maintenance Shop is under the immediate supervision of the Street Superintendent and is responsible
for the maintenance and repair of all City machinery and automotive equipment.
Proposal for 1969
The 1969 recommended appropriation does not comprehend any additional personnel in the street
division. It should be noted, however, that the recommended labor expenditure is significantly higher
than is reflected in the 1968 budget; this represents a change of accounting technique wherein estimated
labor and equipment reimbursements for outside charges in the amount of $24,,000 are reflected in the
revenue section of the budget rather than -being reflected as a reduction of the annual labor item. For
comparison purposes, the total 1969 proposal amounts to approximately $5400 less than the total 1968
appropriation,
The machinery and auto equipment item consists primarily of the replacement of a 1958 front -end
loader.
Costs assignable to this account in 1969, in addition to ,the operating appropriation, include a total
of $11,273 for the redemption of certificates of indebtedness issued in previous years for the acquisition
of street maintenance equipment.

PARK AND RECREATION
Function
The Parks and Recreation Department is responsible for the development and implementation of a
program of organized recreational activities within Brooklyn Center and for developing and maintaining all
public park properties. The Parks and Recreation budget provides funds for these objectives and also
provides funds for the acquisition of park lands.
Proposal for 1969
The recommended proposal for 1969 will provide funds to continue the park maintenance program
and to continue to expand the recreation programs. It is proposed that recreation programs be substantially
expanded by approximately $12, 000 to provide new programs at new parks, increase programs at some
older parks, and provide some additional winter programs.
No additional personnel are comprehended in the 1969 proposal. Capitol Outlay items are not
significantly different from 1967 and 1968 with the exception that no provision is made for land
acquisition. Appropriations to the land acquisition fund are made during the budget year in specific
amounts.
Costs related to this account in 1969, in addition to the operating appropriation, include a total
of $32,435 for the redemption of park bonds and certificates of indebtedness issued in previous years for
the acquisition of land and equipment.

CITY TY Off° BROOKLYN CENTER
PROJECTED EXPENDITURES
GENERAL AIM SPECIAL FUNDS
1970 to 1973
(Item numbers correspond to footnotes on tabulation sheets)
EXPENDITURE ASSUMPTIONS
1. Labor costs will increase at the rate of six (6) percent each year after 1969:
2. `In order to maintain an adequate level of service in the operating and staff agencies,
additional personnel will be added at the rate of $30,000 per year for each of the years
covered by the projection.
3 Maintenance of an adequate level of service will require that other expenditures be
increased at the rate of seven 'percent each year, after 1969.' In addition to the
expansion of programs such as recreation, it is estimated that the current service
level must be escalated to meet the rising cost of supplies, services, and materials.
4. Capital" Outlay, for operating equipment and raaintenanceof current facilities will require
the expenditure of-_approximately $85,000 each year. This sum does not comprehend expend-
itures made for capital projects such as proposed by C.I.R.B.
5. In order to fund and amortize the capital projects program proposed by C.I.R.B., it will be
necessary to levy and appropriate the sums indicated.
6. It is expected that an annual tax levy.of $10,000 will be ,required after 1969 to fund
Poor Relief.
7. It can be expected that P.E.R.A. and'F.I.C.A. retirement costs will increase as a
function of labor costs. 1972 retirement costs will drop from 1971 costs due to the
fact that the City will have satisfied the last installment of a catch -up requirement
112
(Continued)
resulting from -an -act of the Legislature in 1967.
89 Based on actuarial projections, the annual levy for Fire Relief will be $37,415 unless the'
City Council increases the level of Fire Relief Benefits.
9. Police Pension costs will increase as a function of the projected man -power of the
department at a rate of 27.01%.of contributing payroll costs.
10; .Park Bond Redemption reflects annual principal and interest payments for" park improvement
