Re: Proposed 2005 Budget
I have enclosed a copy of the proposed 2005 budget.
The figures are based upon the direction given staff at
the two previous budget workshops. Additional changes
to the budget are as follows.
The amount listed under Property Taxes on the Revenue
Summary is the exact amount needed to balance the
budget based on the current numbers. This amount would
reflect a tax capacity growth of approximately 110.
I have enclosed a resolution (Attachment A) which
reflects the exact amount currently needed to balance
the budget, plus the on-going amounts needed for bonds
and Capital Equipment notes.
I have enclosed a memo (Attachment B) which describes
the changes to the City's Tax Capacity. Based on the
information received from Wright County our Tax
Capacity has increased 210. That means the City's 2005
tax levy could be increased an additional $130,000 over
what's currently proposed and the City would still have
approximately the same tax rate as last year.
I have enclosed a memo (Attachment C) which describes
those General Fund expenses which have been allocated
to the Building Department. That breakdown is also
reflected on page 28 of the budget.
I have enclosed a memo (Attachment D) which lists those
expenses discussed as part of the Street Department
discussion at the budget workshop.
The primary issue to be resolved at this workshop is
setting the preliminary tax levy for 2005. This has to
be adopted by September 15, 2004. The preliminary levy
can be decreased but it cannot be increased. Council
should discuss what it is comfortable with in terms of
a levy.
An additional issue is the approximately $125-130,000
in 2003 budget surplus money. My recommendation is
that this be transferred to the Capital Equipment Fund.
This money can be used in the event of any State Aid
cuts by the State Legislature in the 2005 session. If
there are no cuts affecting Otsego this money can be
transferred and used as the Council wishes. This issue
does not need to be resolved soon, but should be
decided before the end of the year.
