Attachment B <br />Chair Schroeder asked if there was a way the Commission could get the detailed information <br />they need without it being costly or burdensome for staff. <br />Finance Director Miller stated all of the data that he uses is in an Excel format. <br />Commissioner Zeller stated the new version of Excel has a feature called Tree Mapping which <br />would be similar to Tableau. As an accountant, he would find it helpful to have a comprehensive <br />trial balance with account titles, balance, and credit or debit. <br />Commissioner Bachhuber stated a higher level of detail would be helpful for the Commission to <br />do their job and challenge assumptions in the budgeting process. <br />Chair Schroeder asked what it would take to get a summary trail balance for the Commission to <br />review. <br />Commissioner Zeller stated he would like to see this include a summary of each account in the <br />trial balance including the ending balance and credit or debit. <br />Finance Director Miller stated they do not produce this much detail for the auditors but this is <br />something that would be available internally. He could provide a summary for the Commission <br />on areas that they are interested in looking into. <br />Chair Schroeder stated this would be good information for the Commission to start with and they <br />can determine where to go from this point. <br />Finance Director Miller stated he would send out what the current program provides and the <br />Commission can look at the format and determine if this is something that would be useful to the <br />work they are doing. <br />Discussion on Establishing a Cash Reserve Fund <br />Chair Schroeder stated this was a concept she would like the Commission to consider. All of the <br />funds have a reserve amount that they need to have and this fluctuates for every fund from year <br />to year. This makes it difficult to determine if the overall reserve is up or down. If each <br />department or fund area put the reserve amount they need for the year in their budget documents. <br />This would be an additional line item and all of the over or under amounts would be calculated in <br />one fund. She clarified this would be for the unrestricted operating reserves. The amount in the <br />final account would be what is over or under each department reserve requirements. This would <br />make it easy to determine of the budget was over or under each year. This would provide a clear <br />picture of what the City’s total surplus or deficit was for the year. She suggested Commissioners <br />consider this and put together comments or questions for a future Commission discussion. <br /> <br />Commissioner Bachhuber asked how this would be different than the one spreadsheet the <br />Commission provided to the Council that combined all of the accounts. He also asked what the <br /> <br />
