Director Harty stressed that Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILT) is still an issue.
City Manager Juden stated that Director Harty and staff in the Finance Department have done a great job, stressing a soft freeze for hiring and other decisions that were made during the pandemic have helped City budgeting. He stressed that residents during the pandemic had an increase in services instead of a decrease in service.

Director Harty said that he has a hard-working team and thanked them for their continued hard work. |

Director Daffern provided Mayor
and Council with highlights of the five-year plan, nothing that the FY21-22
recommended total was $280,574,223. He displayed a graph depicting CIP
Program Trends over the last 16 years. He stated that the breakdown by year
for the next five years goes down significantly. He provided a list of the
revenue sources, highlighting that a large percentage of the revenue comes
from Regional Flood Control, the Regional Transportation Commission, and
Utility Enterprise Funds. Director Daffern shared a breakout of the five-year
plan by category and stressed that this five-year plan focuses on current
needs, but is fiscally constrained.
When asked about signage and stripping that was done by the City separately in the past, that currently, they are adding these into projects. Thus, as an example, he said that the Regional Transportation Commission has paid for signage, when appropriate, as part of their projects in the City. |
