MEMORANDUM

FROM:
Mayor & City Council
Pat Klaers, City Administra~
September 13,1999
TO:
DATE:
SUBJECT: City Budget
The City Council has held 3 worksessions on the 2000 budget. The results of
these worksessions produced a balanced general fund budget in the amount
of $5,862,500.
The largest revenue category in the general fund, taxes, increased by
$317,150. Due to an approximately 5 percent increase in the net tax capacity
of the city (excluding decertified TIF districts), it is estimated that the impact
on homeowners for the city's share of the property tax bill will be minor.
.
The largest expenditure category, personal services, increased substantially
due to the addition of a number of employees including a police officer, a half-
time building maintenance employee, a seasonal building inspector, a fire
department employee, and a half-time street maintenance employee. This
category comprises approximately 72 percent of the total general fund
expenditures.
At the September 7, 1999, budget worksession the council decided to hold a
public hearing tonight on the tax rate increase for 2000 per the new state
law. However, staff became aware that a newspaper article on this public
hearing would not get published in the 9/8 Star News, so staff is requesting
that this public hearing be held on Monday, October 11, 1999. In this
manner, a newspaper article on the budget and the public hearing can appear
in the Star News prior to this meeting. We will forego a formal public
hearing notice and hope that the general newspaper article will make
everyone aware of the public hearing.
