Charges for Services <br />Charges for services within the general governmental funds assist in providing the diversity of revenue <br />sources as outlined in the fiscal policy. Over the years, the City has instituted user fees for services where <br />appropriate. A majority of the user fees for governmental services are collected from park fees and <br />recreation programs. The remaining user fees are from a combination of city services such as false alarm <br />fees, management fees, motor vehicle license fees, etc. The City expects to see a slightly rising source of <br />user fees in 2000 and 2001. <br />Charges for Services <br /> Comparison <br />3 <br />2.51997Actual <br />21998Actual <br />1.51999Actual <br />2000Budget <br />1 <br />2001Budget <br />0.5 <br />Description of Major General Governmental Expenditures <br />Major expenditure categories are generally in relation to each other each year with public safety, <br />recreation, debt service, and capital outlay accounting for the major allocations.
