7.0. SR 12-02-1996~ty of iver ITEH 7. MEMORANDUM FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Mayor & City Council Pat Klaers, City Adm~A~ator December 2, 1996 ~ Budget Memo The City of Elk River General Fund budget public hearing is scheduled for 7 p.m., Monday, December 2, 1996, at the Elk River City Hall. This public hearing on the budget and tax levy is required by the Truth in Taxation Law. The purpose of this public hearing is to receive citizen input on the proposed 1997 city budget and tax levy. Notice of this public hearing has been sent out by the county to each property owner within the city. Part of this notice included information on the property owners proposed city, school, and county taxes for 1997. A public hearing notice for this meeting and a budget and tax levy article was published in the November 27, 1996, Elk River Star News. In September, 1996, the City Council adopted the proposed maximum budget and levy. The budget was not balanced at that time and there was a $75,400 gap between available revenues and desired expenditures. On November 25, 1996, the City Council met and eliminated this budget gap and approved a draft balanced budget in the amount of $4,535,850. The 1997 budget proposal reflects a 10.77 percent or $441,100 increase over the adopted 1996 budget. The city net tax capacity is up approximately 12 percent in 1997. This growth in the net tax capacity provides the city with additional general fund tax revenues without a tax rate change. The proposed budget reflects a 3 percent increase in the city tax rate. The proposed 3 percent tax rate increase generates an additional $87,700 for general fund purposes. The proposed city net tax levy for 1996 is $2,968,809. Of this total, approximately 83 percent or $2,465,904 is for general fund activities. The balance, approximately 17 percent of the total net tax levy, is used for other City Council approved expenditures such as equipment certificates, operating and maintaining the library, special assessments, the dam loan, etc. 13065 Orono Parkway · P.O. Box 490 · Elk River, MN 55330 · (612) 441-7420 · Fax: (612) 441-7425 Budget Memo December 2, 1996 Page 2 State law requires a Truth in Taxation public hearing on the city budget and tax levy. It seems that what people really want to talk about at this public hearing is their concerns over tax increases. Home and business owners generally see the larger tax increases in the years when their property values go up. Last year the city tax rate was basically unchanged and this year the tax rate is going up 3 percent, so the Council should feel comfortable that they are doing their part to keep taxes at a reasonable level. As we have previously discussed, the city tax rate is very favorable when compared to neighboring and similar communities. The budget was just balanced on Monday evening, and this Thanksgiving work week is short due to the office being closed Thursday and Friday for the holiday. Accordingly, there is no budget narrative included in the packet and only the budget figures are offered for your review. At this public hearing, city staff will be prepared to discuss the proposed 1997 budget and tax levy in as much detail as desired by the Council. According to the Truth in Taxation law the City Council cannot adopt the tax levy or budget at this December 2, 1996, meeting. The tax levy and budget cannot be adopted at a meeting where a public hearing is held and input is received on the budget and tax levy. If the 12/2/96 public hearing is closed, the City Council must announce that the budget and tax levy issues will be continued for consideration and possible adoption at 7 p.m. on Monday, December 16, 1996. This will provide the Council with an opportunity to evaluate the public input it receives on December 2, 1996. However, if the public hearing is continued, the continuation date will be December 16, 1996. Consideration and adoption of the tax levy and budget would then have to be announced to take place at a special meeting. council\budmm 122.doc City of Elk River Draft 1997 Budget TABLE OF CONTENTS SOURCE OF FUNDS .....................................................................................................................................
