3. Park CIP – This fund is for any future park projects that we are not able to fund out of the existing <br />development-funded Park Dedication Fund. Park Dedication is a revenue that is received in lieu <br />of developers setting aside land within a development for parks. We know that the current level of <br />development is subsidizing our existing parks. This new levy starts to create a sustainable funding <br />source for our current and new parks for the future. Community Development and Finance staff <br />are working to incorporate park dedication funds into long-term financial planning to gain a better <br />understanding of future levy needs. <br /> <br />Levy Name Notes <br />2024 <br />Budget <br /> 2025 <br />Requested <br />Infrastructure Reserve Levy New in 2025 0 500,000 <br />City Center CIP Levy New in 2025 0 50,000 <br />Park CIP Levy New in 2025 0 100,000 <br />Vehicle & Equipment Levy Change from a GF Transfer 167,328 400,000 <br />Street Maintenance Levy Change from a GF Transfer 600,000 600,000 <br /> TOTAL $ 767,328 $ 1,650,000 <br /> <br />Summary of Changes by Category <br /> <br />It is sometimes helpful to see the categories of expenditures to more fully understand what our dollars are <br />spent on. The first chart below shows an illustration of the categories of expenditures in the general fund, <br />which deals largely with the operations and provision of city services. General Fund expenses largely fall <br />under Personnel and Charge & Services. The Charges & Services category is roughly 75% contracted <br />services and consultants. <br /> The table below shows year-over-year changes to expense categories. <br /> <br /> 2024 Budget 2025 Requested $ Change % Change <br />Personnel 3,861,290 4,236,974 375,684 9.7% <br />Materials & Supplies 328,093 240,294 (87,799) -26.8% <br />Charges and Services 2,834,686 3,130,069 295,383 10.4% <br />Miscellaneous 13,853 15,269 1,416 10.2% <br />Contingency Reserve 35,000 32,737 (2,263) -6.5% <br />TOTAL OPERATIONS 7,072,922 7,655,343 582,421 8.2% <br />Capital Outlay (Expense) 101,500 75,000 (26,500) -26.1% <br />Transfers* 967,328 19,000 701,672 72.5% Capital Levies* 1,650,000 <br />TOTAL CAPITAL 1,068,828 1,744,000 675,172 63.2% <br />TOTAL 8,141,750 9,399,343 1,257,593 15.45% <br />* Transfers and Capital Levies are not Expenses.
