The City’s special purpose operations account for a variety of stand-alone functions including the City’s
<br />License Center and Information Technology (IT) Support areas. As noted above, the License Center
<br />continues to experience relative stability.The IT area has seen substantial growth in recent years as the
<br />Cityhas not only emphasized greater investment in IT for its own needs, but it also provides IT support
<br />services for 38area municipalities and other governmental agencies. The City expects these IT
<br />partnerships to continue for the foreseeable future.
<br />After rising over the past few years, the City’s debt service paymentshave leveled off as recent bond
<br />issues have been offset by retiring bonds. This City does not have any current plans to issue new debt.
<br />Overall fund balance levels in the City’s governmentalfunds are expected to decline in the next few years
<br />as a result of planned capital replacements. This follows a period of expanding cash reserves as the City
<br />systematically set aside funds to finance improvements on a pay-as-you-go basis.
