I ' YY:A: • ' <br />The Honorable Mayor and City Council: <br />Submitted herewith is the proposed 1992 Annual Budget. <br />While the enclosed 1992 Budget continues the City's tradition of <br />sound fiscal management, this budqet is also attuned to the <br />rapidly changing world of local-state relationships. State <br />fiscal woes have been passed on to cities causing many communi- <br />ties to reassess their programs and services. <br />Roseville, while not escaping unscathed from the state-aid reduc- <br />tions, appears to be in a sound position to meet the current <br />coaunitments to its citizens. Those commitments have been: <br />1. To provide a well planned, well managed means of ineeting the <br />' City's needs now and in the future, while maintaining the <br />best possible credit rating. <br />2. To assure a safe, secure and pleaeant community in which <br />families can live and work. <br />The budget document consists of three sections. <br />Section I is the Introductory section, and contains the Table of <br />Contents and Letter of Transmittal. The Letter of Transmittal <br />includes a discussion of the overall direction of the budget, an <br />explanation of several major programs included in the budget, and <br />a budget overview section containing summary information on tax <br />levy, revenues, and expenditures. <br />Section II is the Fiscal Policies section. This section includes <br />a set of policies to guide the City's financial planning and <br />decision making. The 1992 Budget is in compliance with the <br />City's fiscal policies. <br />Section III is the Program Budget Bection, and contains the pro- <br />gram descriptions and budqet information for the individual pro- <br />grams. <br />a or Programs <br />The 1992 Budget continues several major initiatives begun in <br />recent years, including the Fire Equipment Replacement Program, <br />the Pavement Management Program, Parks Improvement Program, <br />recycling, and an activity center. While the budget does not <br />include any major new initiatives, it does recognize the possi- <br />bilities of a number of changes which may occur in 1992. <br />The extent and nature of those changes will depend a great deal <br />
