Our Budget Principles
1. Build on prior years' actions.
2. Adhere to 2010's Fiscal Sustainability Plan.
3. Use the next 18 months to thoughtfully and deliberatively
change the way local government does business.
4. Our city's long -term success depends upon our
investment in infrastructure (streets, parks, facilities).
5. There are things we should not be doing.
6. Pension costs need to be addressed comprehensively and
cooperatively.
7. Public Safety is paramount — but we need to be open to
better ways of delivery public safety services.
An Expenditure Problem —
Not a Revenue Problem
• Fixed costs that are increasing — about $6M:
— Pensions and OPEB
— Negotiated contracts and payroll requirements
— Facilities Financing Plan
— Unemployment costs
• State cuts we have to absorb:
— Library services — revenue reduction $175K
• Strategic needs that should be funded:
— Streets, alleys, parks, more - $1M increase /year for now
— IT to replace old systems - $1M increase /year for now
• Budget Preparation assumed about /j $81VI in these categories.
• Budget Targets given to departments recommended about 4/$7.7M
• Result = 1.05% increase from FY 2010 -11 Actual to FY 2011 -12
Proposed.

Expenditures
Projected without
Reductions
In order to keep a balanced budget, we needed to bring expenditures down
to reflect reduced revenue. This chart shows where we'd be (in a deficit
position) had we not cut our spending.
