COUNCIL and FINANCIAL COMMISSION ITEM
MEMORANDUM
DATE: August 2, 2013
TO: City Council and Financial Commission
FROM: Curt Boganey, City Managq
SUBJECT: 2014-15 Budget Preparation General Fund
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council and Commission consider the following budget policy
issues:
1.Establishment of a maintenance of standards budget
2.Establishment of an expanded services budget
3.3% maximum levy
4.5.5 % statutory maximum levy
5. Appropriation of LGA for General Fund
Background:
Since our last budget meeting we have been reviewing general fund budget requests in view of
the general budget direction provided by the Council and Commission.
The previous policy direction includes the following:
•Build a budget focused on the Strategic Goals of the Council
•Minimize the reliance on LGA for ongoing operations
•Consider budgets with a maximum levy of 3% and 5.5% levy limit
•2% general wage adjustment
•Identify the impact of tax levy on commercial/industrial properties
Since our last budget meeting Mr. Jordet has announced his plarmed departure from the City. In
light of this significant change we have concentrated a good deal of our efforts on producing a
balanced budget. Our objective for Monday night is to put in place the final parameters for the
production of a balanced budget. We will be seeking final direction on the levy maximum and
on the maximum use of LGA as a potential funding resource. Furthermore we will be seeking
final direction on services levels.
The three charts attached describe where we are in the General Fund process and how we arrived
at this point. Chart #1 describes initial departmental budget requests and reductions that have
been proposed to arrive at a budget the essentially maintains the status quo in terms of service
delivery and budgetary practices. Chart #2 describes the added costs that occur without any
change in staffing, services, or budget practices. These are simply costs that are assumed to be
necessary to maintain current standards.

Chart #3 describes the budgetary gap in funding that we need to close, if we are to adopt the
maintenance of standards budget. If there is any expansion of services or expenditures beyond
the M of S budget, the gap would be further increased.
