Meeting: July 20, 2004
Subject: Review 2004-2005 Fee Schedule
Review FTEs
Review Funding for Outside Agencies
Item #’s: 1, 2 & 3
Presenter(s): David Springer, Finance Director
Background
There are many steps to building the City budget. The process started in April when
Department Directors were given direction from City Administration to prepare their
budgets in a conservative way with emphasis on efficiency and effectiveness. Since
April, the following steps have taken place:
* Outside Agencies were asked to and submitted their budget requests.
* Departments reviewed their current budgets and submitted requests for next year.
* Requests were reviewed with each department by City Administration.
* Budgets were adjusted to increase efficiency and effectiveness.
* Boards review and approval has taken place for Business Improvement Districts,
CRA, and Solid Waste Agency.
* The Finance Department has computed and compiled all information to complete
the budget.
Discussion
The July 20th meeting commences the first steps in approving the City’s 2004-05 budget.
The task at hand is to review the attached following information:
· User fee schedule.
· Personnel FTE (Full Time Equivalent) schedule.
· Outside Agency requests.
The Council is asked to review each of these and ask any questions that will clarify the
information. We are not requiring outside agencies to provide a presentation as their
requests are fairly detailed. There will be representatives from each agency to answer
questions. City Administration recommendations for funding are included for guidance.
As a precursor to the entire city budget, the City Administrator’s Budget Transmittal
Letter is included. This should allow for a comprehensive view of the upcoming budget
and provide indications of the budget direction.
Recommendation
City Administration recommends that the City Council review all information and
discuss surrounding issues to allow for later determination at the July 27, regular Council
Meeting. Any recommended adjustments should be indicated for preparation of the final
budget.
Honorable Mayor and City Council,
It is an honor and privilege for City Administration to present the 2004-05 budget for the
City of Grand Island. It was the intent of the Management Team to prepare an efficient
and effective budget that follows the policy direction of the Mayor and City Council.
Additionally, it is our goal to meet the highest standards regarding delivery of services to
Citizens. A great deal of prioritizing, analyzing and scrutinizing has gone into the
preparation of the budget in order to assure that expenditures bring about the best return
on the Citizens’ investment.
Grand Island is a vibrant, dynamic community that is experiencing growth in several
areas. It appears that the community is poised to change over the next decade in an
unprecedented manner. A City budget which sets progressive direction for the
community is critical to orderly, positive change. The Budget document is the single
most important report presented to the Mayor and Council. It determines how resources
will be allocated and what priorities the City will invest in for the future.
On May 11th, 2004, the voters of Grand Island passed an additional ½ % sales tax to pay
for needed capital projects and reduce the City property tax levy. The new revenue from
sales tax is the most significant change in the budget from last year. City Administration
has reduced the levy/ property tax asking as directed by the voters.
There are also organizational changes in the Administrative area of the City. The
Community Projects department has been eliminated and its functions dropped or re-
allocated to other departments. The GITV division has been re-aligned and scope
expanded to allow for greater and more integrated communication with the community.
Its new title of Public Information Department will better reflect this mission.
A cost included in the budget is the proposed increase in the charges the City is incurring
for licenses and use of the integrated public safety technology system. The 2003-04
budget cost for this service was $187,000 and the 2004 actual cost is projected to be is
$198,106. In 2004-05 the budget calls for $244,051, which is 30% higher than last year’s
budget. The increase is the result of the Police Departments’ pro-rated share for the
Information Technology Manager hired by the County and for critical infrastructure
updates and equipment replacement required to maintain the system. Although this cost
only reflects 3.55% of the total Police Department budget, there is a need to engage in
cost containment activities concerning this expenditure.
Overall, it appears that the financial health of Grand Island will continue to be strong for
the next year. Growth in the community is going to continue to require that capital
improvement spending be maintained at similar levels as it has over the last few years. It
is critical to allocate resources in the most efficient and effective way in order to bring
about the best return on the City’s dollar. The 2004-05 budget attempts to maximize our
position and set the table for future prosperity.
Following are summary sections geared to provide an understanding of the priorities of
the budget along with highlights of the fiscal plan.
Fiscal Summary
The total 2004-05 budget is projected to be $116,466,078. This is $15,685,911or 11.9%
less than was proposed ($132,151,989) in the 2003-04 budget. Following is a summary of
the budget for each of the fund groups contained in the 2004-05:
General Fund $ 29,871,575
Permanent Funds $0
Special Revenue Funds $2,299,658
Debt Service Fund $944,388
Capital Projects Fund $9,532,000
Special Assessments Fund $0
Enterprise Funds $60,619,799
Internal Service Fund $10,112,982
Agency Fund $903,797
Trust Fund $2,181,879
Property Taxes
The proposed property tax requireme nt for the 2004-05 budget year is $4,573,903 or -
30.69 % less than the 2003-04 requirement of $ 6,599,570. The City of Grand Island
certified valuation for 2004 is estimated at $1,829,562,627; therefore, the proposed
property tax levy for the 2004-05 budge t year is $.25 per $100 of valuation. This is
approximately $.12154 per $100 of valuation, or 32.7%, less than the 2003-04 levy.
User Fees
A great deal of scrutiny has taken place on User Fees to assure proper revenue for the
Departments that collect fees for their services. In reviewing the various fee based
departments some concerns arose that are being addressed in the 2004-05 budget. There
are adjustments to fees planned to offset increased cost of operation, regulation, and
demand regarding Building Permits, Ambulance, Cemetery, Aquatics, Planning,
Wastewater, Water and Solid Waste activities.
Additionally, the City is engaged in a comprehensive study of rates for the Electric
Department as the costs have risen significantly due to the cost of raw ma terials and
federal regulation over the last few years. Rate increases are not proposed in the Budget,
but, will most likely be implemented during the budget year after the study is complete.
Electrical rates have not been increased in Grand Island since 1980.
Another area of concern is Jackrabbit Run Golf Course. It appears that revenues continue
to erode and are not meeting the needs of the Golf Course. Increases are included in the
budget to correct the problem and maintain the operation’s profitability. After reviewing
the market and financial position of the enterprise fund, golf rounds will incrementally
increase ($1.00 to 1.25) beginning January 1, 2005.
Compensation, Benefits, and Staffing
Compensation
In order to keep salaries competitive, comparable and in accordance with agreed upon
contracts the following salary adjustments are included in the 2004-05 budget:
Non Union Employees 3%
IBEW 2.5%
FOP 3.5%
AFSCME 2.5
IAFF 1.35% (average)
Benefits
There are two notable changes in Be nefits for City Employees.
The City has been fortunate to experience less than market increases in Health Insurance
premiums over the last few years due to using cost savings methods. However, the 2004-
05 budget will have to respond to increases in health care cost by increasing employee
and employer premiums 10%. Additionally, employees will experience increased out of
pocket costs to further contain costs.
The City has also requested proposals for life insurance on behalf of City Employees.
During the 2004-05 budget year is proposed to increase coverage from $30,000 to
$50,000 per employee. Also proposed is increasing the dependent coverage from $5,000-
spouse and $2500 for children to $10,000 for spouse and $5,000 for children. The cost
for this increased benefit is approximately $18,000.
Staffing
It was the attempt of City Administration to only allow changes in personnel when they
were overwhelmingly justified, increased efficiency, or were connected to a revenue
stream. After reviewing all positio ns of the City and making some changes there will be a
1.55 decrease in FTE’s for the 2004-04 budget year. Following are the key position
changes included in the 2004-05 Budget by department:
Fire Department
· Reclassification of 3 Fire Fighter/EMT positions to Fire Fighter/ Paramedic
positions to align with the activity of the department. This results to no increase in
FTE’s.
Police Department
· Reclassification of three Captains positions to respond to last year’s departmental
reorganization. This results to no increase in FTE’s.
· Realignment of crossing guard positions reducing FTE’s by .96.
· Reduction of hours for the Downtown parking attendant as requested by the
Downtown Board resulting in a reduction of .125 FTE’s.
· Deleting the Deputy Police Chief position and filling it with a police officer. This
results in no increase in FTE’s.
Library Department
· Addition of .173 FTE for a Library Assistant to be funded by the Grand Island
Public School District through the 21st Century Community Learning Center
Grant for after-school reading enrichment programs at five elementary schools.
Finance/ IT Department
· Addition of one Computer Technician to eliminate cost of contracts and provide
better service resulting in the addition of 1 FTE.
· Elimination of a Controller Position and replacing with an Accountant. No FTE
changes but a cost reduction.
· Elimination of a Senior Accounting Clerk resulting in a reduction of 1 FTE.
Emergency Management Department
· Elimination of 1 Telecommunicator position to adjust to the workload, resulting
in a reduction of 1 FTE.
Solid Waste Department
· Realignment of a Maintenance Worker 1 position to a Solid Waste Clerk,
resulting in a .15 addition in FTE’s.
Cash Balance
It is extremely important to maintain cash balances in the City Budget to assure cash flow
strength, promote prudent spending and to have adequate reserves in case of an
emergency. Grand Island’s conservative approach to budgeting and spending has allowed
for proper levels of cash balance over the last decade. The 2004-05 budget again includes
$ 32,346,567 in cash balance in all funds and $ 5,909,327 in the general fund. The
budgeted cash balance in 2003-04 was $30,710,280 for all funds and $7,016,346 for the
General Fund. Strong economic conditions and conservative spending should allow the
City to maintain an appropriate level of contingency.
Notable Projects/Expenditures
Following is a list of Notable Projects/Expenditures by department that have been
included in the 2004-05 budget:
