2016 MAY 11 CC/SARDA/CUA/CPFA/CHA SPECIAL MEETING - 3 - <br />City Manager Smith made introductory comments. Staff has scheduled four Budget Workshops <br />to discuss the forthcoming FY 2016-2017; the first workshop the Finance Director will present to <br />Council the General Fund Budgets for Plan A and Plan B; Plan A assumes passage of Measure D <br />and Plan B assumes failure of Measure D. <br /> <br />Under Plan A the proposed expenditures budget represents a less than $300,000 increase over <br />year end close for the current fiscal year in a $36 million General Fund Budget; this is less than a <br />1% increase in proposed expenditures despite increase expenditure obligations which we have <br />little or no control. <br /> <br />Staff has done their best to control resources because Council desires to maintain current service <br />and expenditure levels while still looking for efficiencies. Council recent priority workshop as <br />well as throughout the year there are additional services and programs Council wishes to explore; <br />as a result of that feedback we have a listing of new programs and efforts proposed and included <br />as part of this budget: <br /> <br /> Vehicle Replacement and Facility Maintenance <br /> Grants Administration <br /> Intern Program – partnership with UCR <br /> Transient Occupancy Tax Measure to be placed on the November 2016 Ballot <br /> Department Audits for two departments: Community Services and Public Works/Utilities <br /> Community Services – Sports Park (short range/long range) <br />o Partner with the Colton School District on Middle School site improvements <br />o In the environmental process for the South Colton site <br /> Development Services – ‘Colton Means Business’ <br />o Signage – bring plans first quarter of the year to update sign code; off-site <br />signage; direction signage <br /> Police Department – bring back the NET (Neighborhood Enrichment Team) Team <br /> Fire Department – support the Advance Life Support (ALS) Stabilization Program <br />(Paramedic Subscription Program); increase in cost recovery <br /> Water/WasteWater – infrastructure improvements; will use CIP for improvements in <br />those areas <br /> <br />In conclusion there is little to no increase in expenditures in the General Fund Budget. <br /> <br />Anita Agramonte, Finance Director, presented a PowerPoint presentation ‘City of Colton – <br />Fiscal Year 2016-17 – Budget Workshop’. <br /> <br />Agenda <br /> New for FY 16/17 <br /> Overview <br /> General Fund Update – Plan ‘A’ <br /> Fund Balance <br /> Revenue <br /> Expenditures <br /> Department Budgets <br /> <br /> General Fund Revenues/Expenditures <br /> Expenditures by Department (Funded/Unfunded Department Requests; Expenditures by Category):
