<br />tit <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />CITY OF ARDEN HILLS <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />June 15, 2000 <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />Joe Lynch, City Administrator <br /> <br />€v <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />Terrance Post, City Accountant <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />Review Comments Regarding Lake Johanna Volunteer Fire <br />Department (LJVFD) Proposed 2001 Operating Budget <br /> <br />I. Can they budget expense items in the same order as they appear in the audited year-end <br />statements? This would facilitate comparisons. <br /> <br />2. What is the general logic in allocating so many expense categories on a per fire station <br />basis? This begs the question that perhaps expenses could be allocated on another basis - <br />say population (Arden Hills 9,737 - 36.8%; North Oaks 3,844 - 9.6%; Shoreview 26,427 <br />-66.1%). <br /> <br />3. <br /> <br />What is the relationship between the pension contribution to the LNFD Benefit <br />Association and the State Fire Relief Aid payment to the same organization? What is the <br />actuarial annual funding requirement and what is the percentage split between the cities <br />and the state contributions? <br /> <br />4. Could LNFD explain in greater detail the following expense categories: maps ($425); <br />refreshments ($1,000); technology ($500); and events ($1,515)? <br />
