Roseville Public Works, Environment and <br />Transportation Commission <br />Agenda Item <br />Date: November 24, 2009 Item No: 5 <br />Item Description: 2010 Budget Process Update <br />Background: Staff has been keeping the Commission apprised of the budget process as it relates <br />to the Public Works area. As we discussed previously the City Council recently received a report <br />from Springstead Incorporated which details the cost of providing various services supported by <br />the city's tax levy. They were retained to assist staff in developing program cost analysis for use <br />in the budget process for 2010. This is consistent with a Budgeting for Outcomes approach <br />where one determines the amount of revenue available and then prioritizes programs and <br />services and only funds the programs which fit the revenue available. Unfunded programs or <br />services are discontinued or reduced if partially funded. Staff will discuss what has transpired <br />since your September meeting. The Council is scheduled to discuss their priorities and the City <br />Managers recommended budget for the entire tax supported list of city services again at their <br />meeting on Monday November 23, 2009. The Council received public comment on the budget at <br />its November 16, 2009 meeting. Staff will share what we learn from that meeting and will be <br />prepared to discuss impacts of any potential program changes if identified at their meeting. The <br />City Council needs to adopt a 2010 City budget by the end of December of this year. <br />Recommended Action: <br />Discussion <br />Attachments: <br />City Managers recommended budget <br />
