Page 3 of 4 <br /> <br />FIRE <br />The fire operating costs are expected to rise by 8.7% or $72,391 for 2025. This is mainly due to <br />the addition of 6 full time captains; step, COLA, and market adjustments; and an increase in repairs <br />and maintenance, all of which Arden Hills’ cost share portion is 24.2%. <br /> <br />The $740,349 tax levy increase being proposed for the General Fund is $524,720 more than the <br />increase needed to cover police and fire services, which makes up 29.1% of the proposed levy <br />increase or $215,629. <br /> <br />General Overview <br />There are no significant projects included in the 2025 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 2024 budget. <br /> <br />A summary of the major changes in the 2025 budget is as follows: <br /> <br /> <br />The table below shows the original adopted budget for the General Fund compared to the final <br />audited numbers from 2014 - 2023. As you can see, the City has performed better than the budget <br />for all the years shown. Reasons for this difference include conservative budgeting, which includes <br />not budgeting for position vacancies. Please note that the 2020 actuals include revenue from the <br />CARES Act in the amount of $459,614, and this was a one-time occurrence. The Transfers Out <br />column shows the funds that were transferred to cover capital projects within the City. <br /> <br />Description Effect on Levy <br />Transfer to Cable Fund 50,000 <br />4% Market Adjustment 51,801 <br />Step Increases and Position Changes 53,866 <br />3% COLA Adjustments 49,734 <br />Insurance/Work Comp Benefits 25,459 <br />180,860 <br />Increase in RamCo Sheriff 140,058 <br />Increase in LJFD 72,391 <br />Election Services 21,450 <br />RamCo Facility Maintenance Facility - Rent 6,032 <br />One-Time Comp Study Charge (17,500) <br />Street Maintenance Program 105,000 <br />Permit Software Conversion 60,000 <br />Net changes in other GF Budget Areas (37,942) <br />580,349 <br />Personnel Costs <br />Total Costs
