She summarized <br />that staff reviewed and discussed the CIP Budget in July. The Operating Budget was discussed in <br />the August and September work sessions. Council set the Preliminary Levy Budget on Septernber <br />23, which was the 15.5% levy increase or $823,281 over 2024. <br />Finance Director Yang showed the changes since the preliminary levy adoption. Personnel <br />changes were updated to reflect non-union health and dental premiums. The CIP increased by <br />$785,000. <br />Councilmember Holden asked if we had the final numbers for health insurance. <br />Interim City Administrator Jagoe confirmed we had final numbers for non-union employees. <br />Finance Director Yang said the $785,000 increase to CIP fund balance is due to decreases in <br />some projects. Sewer lining rehabilitationin202T was set to $580,000 a decrease of $115,000. <br />The MN-51 Connection was removed from 2026 and replaced with two new park projects <br />resulting in a $880,000 decrease. The Hamline Avene N Trail Connection and the County Road E <br />Trail Connection replaced the MN-51 Connection project. The Hamline Avenue project was <br />added to 2026 for an increase of $ 160,000. The County Road E Trail project was added to 2026 <br />for an increase of $350,000. <br />Mayor Grant asked about the sewer lining project. He noted it was set for S580,000. He thought <br />it was previously $475,000. <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said that is a2027 project. He said the2025 <br />number is $475,000. <br />Mayor Grant clarified that the trail connection removed from 2026 is because we aren't paying <br />for it not because it isn't getting done. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen <br />confirmed. <br />Mayor Grant said the trail connection was replaced with two new park projects. He wondered <br />how it was determined which two parks would replace it. <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said the Hamline Avenue and County Road <br />E trail connections are being done instead. <br />Mayor Grant wanted clarification that it's not a park project but rather a trail project.
