4. Engineering December engineering charges will be added at year-end, bringing the engineering budget close to target. 5. City Hall Due to increased energy costs, city hall plant expenses have exceeded budget. 6. Police Protection Monthly payments are made to the Centennial Lakes Police Department in the amount of $40,379. In addition, $1,500 in charitable gambling donations was passed through for the purchase of medical equipment. 7. Fire Protection Payments are made quarterly in the amount of $20,405.25 to Centennial Fire Department. All four payments have been made in addition to the pass-through of $12,500 in gambling funds. 8. Electrical Inspection The electrical inspection budget was increased this year, but was over budget. This should not be a concern as fees are collected to offset this expense. 9. Animal Control Animal Control expenditures are higher than budget due to a larger than normal number of dogs being impounded. We have increased the budget accordingly for 2004, as the trend seems to be continuing. 10. Streets Street expenses exceed budget due to the pavement management study and the Mound Trail project. A portion of the Mound Trail project will be recovered through special assessments. 11. Parks and Recreation Skate park attendants were not utilized this year, resulting in expenditures below budget in the programs department. 12. Capital Outlay The City installed a security system in the City Hall. We have capitalized the expense, as it meets our capitalization requirements. We have also purchased a copy machine and a folding machine. The public works vehicles will be purchased next year due to the timing of the State contract. 13. Transfers Out The amount shown represents the debt-related transfers made earlier this year (city hall lease payment, etc.) This will be the last year for those obligations.
