City of Roseville: Mayor Klausing <br />"Big Issues" and Priorities for 2006 and Beyond <br /> • ~- <br /> <br /> - •' ~ - <br /> •' ~ <br /> ~ •~~ ~. <br /> <br />Finance Establish the appropriate funding 200 - 1 2 3 <br /> mechanisms to ensure the timely 300,000 <br /> replacement of City assets when they <br /> reach the end of their useful life <br /> Identify and fund an acceptable and 100,000 2 1 1 <br /> sustainable employee compensation and <br /> benefit package <br /> Dedicate new funding sources for City's 100,000 3 3 <br /> information and communication systems <br /> Other Finance goals, priority issues.... <br /> COUNCILMEMBER IHLAN: "Review <br /> and control entire budget: Make sure that <br /> budget and financial policies are <br /> adequate, complete and being followed; <br /> centralize budgetary control by council." <br /> COUNCILMEMBER SCHROEDER: <br /> "1) City wide wireless Internet ($0). <br /> Follow Minneapolis's lead. Use <br /> contingency funds in communication <br /> budget." <br /> COUNCILMEMBER KOUGH: <br /> "Cut back on charge card usage and allow <br /> only 50 cards for employee use." <br />1 NOTE: Please remember that the dollar figures provided in this chart are very rough estimates. Also, in some but <br />not all instances, depreciation has been set aside for capital improvement projects. Also, in some but not all <br />instances, program fees might pay for part or all of the initiative. However, for the most part funding sources have <br />not been determined yet as an element of this goal and priority setting process. If a certain goal or program were to <br />emerge as a priority, staff would refine the cost impacts and provide funding options for Council consideration. <br />Importantly, if the Council wants to implement a program above without creating any additional tax or fee to pay for <br />the program, that can certainly be done; but, in that case, we would need Council direction about which existing City <br />goal or program should be eliminated or de-emphasized to achieve the cost savings that will pay for the new or <br />preferred goal/program. <br />
