Municipal Parking Division Rationale: To establish a ‘budget benchmark’ reflecting the growing costs associated with maintaining several municipal parking areas. Proposed 2013 Budget Municipal Parking Lots (new division) $ 140,200 Note: The anticipated annual cost of the new downtown parking facility is $45,700, which is included in the above budget.
Bond & Interest Fund The proposed 2013 increase is due in large part to the reserves that must be maintained for the quality-of-life bond issue.

S&P’s Latest Bond Rating Revised its Financial Management Assessment from “good” to “strong”…. “…based (in part) on the City’s informal policy of budgeting for a $750,000 general fund cash reserve…which management has adhered to historically….”

Future Work Session Issues for Consideration Other issues to be researched for the 2nd budget work session?
