FINANCE COVID-19 Relief Programs The city has now received our federal funds for COVID-19 relief of $304,902. The funds come to cities, through the CARES Act, offsetting expenses related to the pandemic. City staff have evaluated expenses to date and those anticipated through November 15, 2020. A draft plan for allocation of these funds has been presented to the city council. Proposed funding may include: • Direct expenses (hand sanitizer, PPE, remote work expenses, etc.) • Construction project delay expenses • City Hall renovation costs to adapt to COVID • Police and Fire Department direct expenses and diverted staff time • Public works and city hall diverted staff time • School District Relief • North Metro TV direct expenses The deadline for expending these funds is November 15, 2020. 2021 Budget The City Council has been working hard on putting together the 2021 General Fund Budget and Tax Levies. The most recently presented drafts would raise the levy by less than 1 %. A Preliminary Budget will be adopted by the City Council at its September 23 meeting. From there, the budget and levies may be reduced, but not increased, prior to adoption of the final versions in December. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT Old Mill Estates Construction on Phase 11 of the project has begun. Connection to the sewer in Old Mill Road was made.
