This was handed out to all Councilmembers at the September 15, 2014, work session. A memo can be found in the book outlining all the discussion points. GENERAL INFORMATION A final levy is established and certified in December. As Council knows, once a preliminary levy is established, the amount can be reduced, but it cannot be increased. In order to proceed with preliminary budget preparation, it would be helpful to have additional Council input. DIRECTION REQUESTED: 1. Discussion with staff regarding the 2015 preliminary levy and issues. 2. Further direction to staff regarding 2015 budget preparation.
