26 * * Note, Merit Pay of $30,000 shown in the above table was temporarily suspended pending Council <br />27 approval of a new Merit Pay Plan Policy, but can be funded out of contingency funds set aside in the <br />2R annual General Fund budget. <br />29 <br />3U 2014 Cash Reserve Funded Increases <br />31 <br />Description <br />Amount <br />2% Employee cost -of- living adjustment <br />$ 1651000 <br />Employee wage step increases <br />801000 <br />Employee Healthcare <br />501000 <br />PERA increase mandate <br />301000 <br />Dispatching <br />651000 <br />General Inflation <br />471000 <br />Reduction from sales tax exemption <br />(40,000) <br />Reduced City Contribution to Fire Relief per actuarial study <br />(80,000) <br />Total <br />$3179000 <br />32 <br />33 The City Council has also expressed a desire to fund a new Volunteer Coordinator position. If the <br />34 Council decides to do this, we will need to make sure it is appropriated somewhere in the budget along <br />35 with a funding source — which could simply be the use of Cash Reserves for 2014. We could not <br />36 however increase the 2014 tax levy as it is already statutorily capped at the preliminary levy set back in <br />3, September. <br />38 <br />39 The City Manager Recommended Budget for the non tax - supported programs as recently adjusted is <br />40 $27,627,165, an increase of $3,973,197 or 16.8 %. This is $55,000 less than the original Recommended <br />41 Budget for these programs which is no longer needed to implement the results from the Compensation <br />42 Study. The overall Budget increase is due to higher planned capital outlays ($1.5 million), tax <br />43 increment financing activities ($1.7 million), and added costs associated with the purchase of water <br />44 from the City of St. Paul and wastewater treatment charges from the Met Council. <br />45 <br />46 It also includes additional funding to add two new positions in the Information Technology division <br />47 which are being funded primarily from other governmental agencies that have partnered with the City. <br />48 <br />49 2014 Recommended Budget Funding Sources <br />50 In the General Fund, non -tax revenues are expected to remain stagnant overall for 2014. Increases in <br />51 business licenses, permit fees, and court fines will be offset by a decline in interest earnings. The Parks <br />52 & Recreation Fund is expected to fare slightly better with program fees increasing by approximately <br />53 $41,000. The additional program fees will offset higher parks and recreation - related employee and <br />54 other operating costs. As noted above, the City also expects to receive $225,000 in local government <br />55 aid which will be earmarked for capital replacements. <br />56 <br />57 The Recommended Budget also relies on approximately $317,000 of General Fund cash reserves which <br />58 is less than the $430,000 figure referenced earlier in the budget process. The decline is somewhat due <br />59 to refined estimates of personnel- related costs that factors in recent employee turnover. It also includes <br />6o revised estimates of the amount of savings being derived from the newly- imposed sales tax exemption <br />U i and the extent it will offset inflationary effects on general operating costs. <br />62 <br />63 <br />Page 2 of 4 <br />
