Page 3 of 4 <br /> <br />General Overview <br />There are no significant projects included in the 2023 budget which would affect the permit <br />revenue. The permit revenue included reflects only the estimated recurring “base” amount, similar <br />to what was included in the 2022 budget. <br /> <br />A summary of the major changes in the 2023 budget is as follows: <br /> <br /> <br />The table below shows the original adopted budget for the General Fund compared with the final <br />audited numbers from 2012 - 2021. As you can see, the City has come in better than the budget for <br />all the years shown. Reasons for this difference include conservative budgeting and we don’t <br />budget for position vacancies. Please note that the 2020 actuals include revenue from the CARES <br />Act in the amount of $459,614, and this was a one-time occurrence. The Transfers Out column <br />shows the funds that were transferred to cover capital projects within the City. <br /> <br /> <br />Original Operating Transfers <br />Year Budget Activity Out <br />2012 - 324,538 (124,955) <br />2013 (16,100) 44,795 (30,000) <br />2014 (185,402) 142,649 (162,417) <br />2015 (58,305) 736,465 <br />2016 (160,326) 427,521 (565,121) <br />2017 (195,955) 694,505 <br />2018 (237,225) 101,055 (400,000) <br />2019 (186,970) 235,217 (360,000) <br />2020 (121,590) 642,918 (478,000) <br />2021 (90,720) 337,316 (548,000) <br /> <br /> <br />Description Effect on Levy <br />Increase use of fund balance (21,330) <br />Increase in MSA maintenance aid (17,490) <br />Increase in interest earnings (23,000) <br />Increase in RamCo Sheriff 56,150 <br />Increase in RamCo Dispatch 6,930 <br />Increase in LJFD 54,510 <br />Increase in building utility and rental costs 16,710 <br />Increase in street maintenance supplies and other charges 12,100 <br />3.0% COLA 42,740 <br />Increase in insurance benefits 8,590 <br />Step increases and position/allocation changes 58,320 <br />Net changes in other GF budget areas (20,600) <br />173,630
