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 />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 />* Transfers and Capital Levies are not Expenses. They are funds that gets placed into a Capital Fund for
<br />expenditure on large purchases. We are showing them here because Transfers were previously shown in the
<br />General Fund Expense Budget, and we wanted to present a more accurate comparison year-to-year.
