2004 REQUESTED BUDGET INFORMATION (Page 1 of 3)
This document includes several items that have been discussed or requested during the budget
process along with traditional items that are distributed to the council in relationship to tax levies
and the effects on the tax bill to residents.
2002 Fund Balance (White)
This basic document was distributed to the City Council in August. Its intent is to show our
2002 year-end fund and cash balances sorted by classification in relationship to 'unrestricted
funds to funds that have significant restrictions on them. For this purpose the document has been
broken into four categories.
Category 1 is, in essence, funds that are totally unrestricted and can be utilized for any
purpose.
Category 2 is only slightly different in that these are funds where the council, either by
designation of the fund or through some other action, has established designations on
how these funds can be utilized. However, these designations can be removed and the
funds can be redirected into other areas by City Council resolution.
Category 3 is funds that have outside restrictions through state statutes or other
requirements that limit the use of the funds to the general purpose for which the revenue
was raised. The City Council has discretion to use these funds within those established
parameters.
Page Two
Category 4 funds have more severe restrictions and limitations on how the revenue and
fund balances can be used. In this classification the council has very limited discretion
over the utilization of the revenue.
2003 Year-End Projected Expense (Goldenrod)
This document summarizes where we are at with the 2003 budget, revised budget, projected
year-end 2003 expense, and the projected 2003 budget savings along with the final column being
the City Manager's proposed 2004 budget. This document highlights the great effort that staff
has put into cost savings during the year 2003. The last page in this document highlights the
total savings in the General Fund, Library, and Community Development funds. As you can see,
staff's projected cost savings in the General Fund is slightly over $1,000,000 from the original
adopted budget. This is more than double of the planned budget reductions for 2003 and will
exceed our state aid cuts for 2003 by approximately $300,000. This puts us in very good
financial condition going into 2004 if the state does make additional reductions to our state aid in
2004.
2004 Revenue bY Source (Salmon)
This page highlights sources of revenue for the tax-supported funds compared to expenses in the
2004 budget. As you can see, the 2004 budget reflects an increase in the General Fund of $1.00,
a decrease in the Library fund balance of $19,374, and no change to the EDA fund balance. The
decrease to the Library fund balance is primarily for capital outlay type items, which are
traditionally taken from the buildup of accumulated increases in fund balance.
Proposed ProperW Taxes (Blue)
The intent of this document is to simply show our tax and state aid over the last four years and
how state aid has been shifted or reduced and moved to property taxes. One of the significant
years, as is noted in this chart, is 2002. In that year the City lost approximately $1,000,000 in
aid. However, this aid was given to the school which resulted in the city's property tax
increasing and the school's property tax decreasing. Subsequently, the taxpayer saw virtually no
change or a slight reduction in their overall property taxes. However, this change did result in
the appearance of the City having a property tax levy when in reality it was a shifting of aid and
property taxes between the City and school.
ProperS_ Tax Historg?om 1997 - 2004 (Yellow)
This page was reviewed with the City Council during the budget process. It has been updated to
include the 2004 total property tax bill that includes school, county, city and other taxing entities
as well as an update on property values. The main purpose of this page is to reflect that property
taxes have actually gone down from 1997 to 2004 on most properties, even though we are seeing
Page Three
a considerable increase from 2003 to 2004. If we look at the actual increase from 2002 to 2004 it
is approximately half as much. This is due to the fact that again, in general, we saw a significant
overall property tax reduction in 2002. This page primarily demonstrates that there is a
fluctuation in property taxes and it emphasizes the importance of looking at the tax change over a
longer period of time other than just one year.
Tax Levies Payable (Lilac)
The next section reflects the property breakout on five properties in Columbia Heights at various
values. In essence, these are the same five properties we have used for tracking for several years.
This shows the comparison of the property tax change from 2002 to 2003 to the proposed taxes
for 2004 and the amount of increase for 2004 for all of the taxing entities. As you can see, a
$103,000 home in Columbia Heights will see a city property tax increase of $76.00 or $6.33 per
month. This increase is actually lower than the amount we had projected when we prepared the
proposed 2004 budget.
2004 Ci~ Manager / Ci~ Council Cuts (Gray)
In the discussions regarding the budget there have been few proposed cuts or reductions to the
City Manager's proposed budget. This section highlights two additional cuts, the first being to
reduce the Police Department to a staffing level of 23 officers. As you may recall, prior to the
addition of the grant officers, the number of staff in the Police Department was 22 sworn
officers. This budget reduction will still keep their strength one officer higher than it was prior
to the grant increases. The second proposed cut is to cut six months from the vacant firefighter
position. This will allow an additiOnal time period to evaluate the need for filling that position
and if deemed necessary, allow funding to fill the position for the last six months of 2004.
Utili~ Expenses (Pink)
This page highlights the historic expenses for gas and electricity at the four major City buildings
from 2000 through 2002 actual compared to the 2003 and 2004 budgets. If current projections
for gas increases are correct, our budget for 2004 is low. This budget could either be increased at
this time through the utilization of funds saved in the additional proposed City Manager's cuts or
the budget can be adopted at the proposed level with the intent of monitoring utility expenses and
increasing the budget during the year.
