City of Centerville <br />Council Work Session, City Council & Closed Exec. Meeting Minutes <br />August 25, 2021 <br />position. Administrator Statz also stated that it was at CouncilÓs discretion and that he was saving <br />the City money by completing Engineering tasks. <br /> <br />Mayor Love stated that he would not be surprised if a candidate was straight out of college with <br />good skills. He asked when the hiring would occur. Administrator Statz stated as soon as possible <br />and on board by January, 2022. Mayor Love asked who would be interviewed. Administrator <br />Statz stated that he preferred a full-time position but if a part-time individual with years of <br />experience was interested, he would consider. He stated that he desired to leave job description <br />broad, see candidatesÓ qualifications, passions, and potential. Mayor Love felt that the position <br />would provide an opportunity to make Centerville better. <br />2. 2022 General Fund Budget <br />Administrator Statz stated that he believe this was the third workshop, the memorandum provided <br />has been refined and a line by line budget was in the packet for review. <br />Finance Director DeJong stated that staff continues to make adjustments, anticipates a 3% increase <br />and believes that this is lower than neighboring communities and communities similar in size. <br /> <br />Council Member King asked about changes from the last discussion and Finance Director DeJong <br />stated that if there were adjustments that they were less than a couple thousand. City Administrator <br />Statz stated that there was little change and that they were contained in the summary table. Council <br />Member King questioned the process of allocation of expenditures and the processes. <br />Administrator Statz stated that funding is received from many avenues and expenditures are <br />expended from many different accounts or percentages applied to accounts (sewer/water, franchise <br />fees, etc.). <br /> <br />Council Member Mosher asked about recycling revenue/expenditures. Administrator Statz stated <br />that funding is applied for at the beginning of the year and expenditures/programs are made <br />throughout the year. Attempts are made to expend only funds that are obtained from the County <br />to offer programs/events. <br /> <br />Council Member Koski remarked that the format of the information was easy to understand. He <br />asked about the addition of a Public Works staff member and budgeting $20,000 and why the <br />position was not added. Administrator Statz stated that approximately three (3) year ago it was <br />determined that the position was not needed with hiring consultants for additional duties. Council <br />Member Koski asked what happened to the funding and Administrator Statz explained that it was <br />in the General Fund. Finance Director DeJong stated that any surplus in funding remains in the <br />general fund. Discussion ensued regarding COVID funding, the City Hall remodel, some <br />expenditures not making previous funding, funding from General Fund excesses, Engineering <br />savings and whether that has been experienced, additional staffing to allow for more Engineering <br />savings, etc. Additional discussion included switching fire administration, City truck replacement <br />schedule, CIP, State Fire Aid and that being a direct pass through to the Fire District and reserves <br />being larger than most other cities at a 50-60%. <br /> <br />Page 3 of 9 <br /> <br />
