Attachment 1 369 Costs for Supplies, Operations, and Contractual Services 370 The 2025City Budget incorporatesincreased costs for supplies, operations, and contractual 371 services. The net cost for this increase for levy-supported functions is $354,523in 2025. 372 373 Strategic Use of Grant Funding 374 Grant Funding 375 The City has been diligent in securing alternative revenue funds to help offset the impact to local 376 property taxpayers. For the 2025 budget, I propose to use the following grant funds to offset new 377 costs: ARPA, Public Safety Aid, and Opioid Settlement Funds 378 379 ARPA 380 The City received a total of $3.9 million as a result of the federal American Rescue Plan Act 381 (ARPA). We will have a small amount of ARPA funds remaining ($18,000) that can be utilized in 382 2025. 383 384 Mental Health Coordinator (2) $18,000 (No tax levy impact) 385 As described earlier in this memo, the funding for the 2 mental health coordinators will be split 386 using various grant funds. I propose to use $18,000 in remaining ARPA funds to partially pay for 387 these two positions. Beginning in 2026 these positions will need to be funded with levy funds 388 unless other grant dollars can be secured. 389 390 Opioid Settlement Dollars 391 As part of the state settlement with opioid manufacturers, the City of Roseville will be receiving 392 payments for the following 15 years. The opioid settlement funds must be spent on qualifying 393 expenditures that include opioid intervention, treatment, and education. We have been collecting 394 these funds for the past couple of years (and will continue into the future). As of July 31, 2024, the 395 City has received approximately $105,000 in settlement dollars. 396 397 Mental Health Coordinator (2) $50,000 (No tax levy impact) 398 For the 2025 budget, I am proposing to use $50,000 of the opioid settlement funds to help fund the 399 2 Mental Health Coordinators embedded in the Police Department. As part of their work, the 400 embedded Mental Health Coordinators often encounter addiction issues combined with mental 401 health issues with the clients they work with. Using opioid settlement dollars to help fund 402 positions that will help those dealing with addiction issues and is an eligible use of the settlement 403 funds. 404 405 Public Safety Aid 406 As part of the 2023 legislation, the City received $1,596,000 in “Public Safety Aid” (PSA) from 407 the State of Minnesota. The one-time appropriation can be used only be used for activity that 408 provides for public safety. To date, the City has expended/committed $1,418,546 of PSA funds as 409 shown in the table below. As the City did not need to use any PSA funds for the Commitment to 410 Diversity positions in the Police and Fire Departments, there is a total of $397,979 available as 411 shown in the table below. 13 Qbhf!237!pg!417
