The motion carried <br />unanimously (5-0). <br /> <br />6. PULLED CONSENT ITEMS <br /> <br />None. <br /> <br />7. PUBLIC HEARINGS <br /> <br />None. <br /> <br />8. NEW BUSINESS <br /> <br />A. 2015 Proposed Preliminary Budget and Tax Levy <br /> <br />Director of Finance and Administrative Services Iverson stated that the City Council had a <br />2015 budget and tax levy discussion during the September 22, 2014, work session. At this work <br />session, staff was directed to prepare a preliminary levy resolution that called for a 5% increase. <br /> <br />Director of Finance and Administrative Services Iverson explained that the preliminary tax <br />levy amount certified in September can be decreased but not increased when the final tax levy <br />amount is approved in December. She noted that the budget message in the 2015 Budget that was <br />distributed on September 15th contemplates a 4.5% tax levy increase; therefore, the Council <br />should refer to the updated budget message that is in the agenda packet. She reviewed the <br />proposed budget and tax levy at the 5% level. The extra ½% tax levy increase generates an <br />additional $16,450 in revenue. Staff reviewed the budget and tax levy in further detail with the <br />Council and recommended that the Council set the preliminary levy for taxes payable in 2015. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden supported a 5% increase in the tax levy. She then discussed the <br />proposed increases that were required for public safety. She explained that fiscal disparities <br />would be decreasing. She stated that taxpayers recently voiced concern with a proposed franchise <br />fee and for this reason, she recommended a 5% tax levy increase and that 2% of this be set aside
