It also includes funds to manage the administrative support <br />and human resource functions of the City. This budget increased by 2.85% in 2017. <br /> <br />Personal Services shows an increase of 4.04% due to COLA changes. Other Services and <br />Charges are increasing slightly, by 2.75%, due to a number of factors. Most of these are due to <br />increased use of credit cards and technology. <br /> <br />Since Administrative Support Services and Finance benefit all areas within the City, an <br />administrative charge was established in 2008 to recover costs from all funds based on the <br />support provided from this department. Various line items in Other Services and Charges were <br />increased or reduced in an effort to more accurately reflect expected expenditures. <br /> <br />Budget Summary <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Function: General Government Department: Finance & Administrative Services <br />Appropriation Detail <br />Actual Actual Budget Amended YTD Proposed % Change <br />Activity FY 2014 FY 2015 FY 2016 FY2016 FY2016 FY 2017 16 vs 17 <br />Personal Services 58,874 59,612 65,530 65,530 26,217 68,176 4.04% <br />Materials and Supplies 22,516 22,738 24,100 24,100 8,510 24,100 0.00% <br />Other Services and Charges 75,962 80,196 90,900 90,900 54,310 93,400 2.75% <br />Total Operating Expenses 157,352 162,546 180,530 180,530 89,037 185,676 2.85% <br />Total Capital - - - - - - 0.00% <br />Department Total 157,352 162,546 180,530 180,530 89,037 185,676 2.85% <br />Funding Source: General Fund
