CITY OF ARDEN HILLS, MINNESOTA <br />Function: Public Works <br />Activity: Central Garage <br />2026 BUDGET <br />Fund # 727 <br />Activity # 49700 <br />Activity Scope <br />The Central Garage and Equipment Fund is a self-sustaining fund, or internal service fund of the City. The Public <br />Works Department works on Streets, Parks, Water, Sanitary Sewer, and Surface Water Management. All costs <br />are compiled in this fund and charged out to the departments based on usage. <br />Objectives <br />1. Maintain cost effective control of multi -purpose department. <br />2. Manage costs involving multiple departments. <br />Issues <br />1. Aging equipment. <br />2. Balance the Public Works Department needs with available funds. <br />3. Managing an effective cost allocation structure. <br />Budget Commentary <br />This was a new fund in 2013. Previously, these services were split into all five public works departments: Streets, <br />Parks, Water, Sanitary Sewer, and Surface Water Management. Setting up one fund to manage these costs is <br />more effective and will save administrative time. The total impact is the same as budgeting these costs across <br />each individual department. <br />Budaet Summary <br />Personnel Services <br />Commodities <br />Contractual Services <br />Capital Outlay <br />Other Charges <br />Total <br />Percent Change <br />Expenditures by Classification <br />42% <br />2023 2024 2025 2026 <br />118,441 103,058 124,250 122,500 <br />69,870 69,163 87,960 90,250 <br />(-8.5%) 23.2% 0.3% <br />58% <br />13Personnel Services <br />o Commodities <br />oContractual Services <br />o Capital Outlay <br />■ Other Charges <br />to <br />
