(If more discussion is desired prior to adoption of the budget) John K. Anderson City Administrator c2.? MEMO TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Gregg Voxland, Finance Director RE: Supplementary Budget Information DATE: September 24, 1981 The following is additional budget information: 1. Fire Dept. code 4223 "Clothing", increase is to buy additional bunker pants (proposed over several years, this years portion) to buy gear for new man and to replace coats recently damaged. 2. Police Dept. code 4315 "Professional Services, add $140 to provide for costs of the Suburban Recruiting System. 3. The City Attorney has provided information regarding publishing bills and resolutions (City Administrator's budget, code 4350) see attached memo. 4. The $10,000 offer for additional railroad property by the library is not provided for in the budget. It could be a 1981 or 1982 expenditure. The other purchase of railroad property downtown was designated as being funded by the P.I.R. fund pending long term financing. The parcel by the library could be funded by the General Fund, P.I.R. , or with a change in policy the Capital Equipment Revolving Fund or Revenue Sharing. Council should indicate where they desire to fund the purchase if the offer is accepted. 5. Attached are computer detail sheets for Community Services that are missing from the budget document, pages 148-151 (back side counted) . 6. The State of Minnesota is continuing to face budgetary and cash flow problems. Many observers feel that local government aid is highly susceptible to the next round of budget cuts. The Council should consider allowing for possible cuts of 8-10% in aid ($39,000) . 7. The I.C.C. has expressed the desire to have an appropriation of $5,000 for 1982. The I.C.C. proposed budget is currently listed at $300. 8. 1967 Improvement Fund: The budget currently contains revenue figures based on the tax levy schedule contained in the indenture. This fund is in a deficit position and needs additional funding. (See attached memo.) 9. Council discussed with the townships the effect on fire service agreement payments of spreading the cost of the roof and truck contained in the proposed Fire Dept. budget. The approximate affect is shown in the attached letter. John K. Anderson, City Administrator Supplemental Budget Information September 24, 1981 Page 2 10. The revenue from special assessments (V.I.P. & Holmes) shown for 1980-A Improvements (page 138) should be reduced from $841,000 to $783,139. The revenue from special assessments for 1981-A Improvements should be $679,936 to reflect actual rolls instead of $806,000. Expenditures in this fund for 1981 should be reduced from $826,000 to $810,200 to allow for prior year expenditures on this year's projects. This puts the estimated fund balance at 12/31/81 at $22,914) . However, there is a future fax levy of $26,070 and assessment interest income will not be recognized until 1982. 11. Mr. Houser is obtaining information on the re-roofing of the fire station. It is not ready at the time this is written. 12. Mr. Ring is to be providing justification for the purchase of a new rescue truck. The material has not arrived at City Hall as of the time this is written. 13. Revenue Sharing Fund, page 110, Federal grants should be reduced from $147,000 to $117,500 to reflect lower allocation for Entitlement period (E.P.) 13 and expected decrease fro first quarter of E.P. 14. V MEMO TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Judith S . Cox, City Cierl4n>t RE: Publications DATE: September 16, 1981 Introduction Pursuant to your request , I have checked with the City Attorney regarding the legal requirements of publishing the Council minutes , resolutions and ordinances . Background It has been the practice of the City to publish all minutes with bills , ordinances , resolutions , and miscellaneous legal notices . Copies of all publications are grouped together, according to type , and copied for our permanent records by the Shakopee Valley News . Mr. Coller has informed me that we must publish the minutes and the ordinances ; however, we need not publish the, bills or the resolutions , unless the Council or a resolution would so direct. An example of when we may wish to publish a resolution would be when the Council is commending someone for their services . City expenses would be reduced if publication of the bills and resolutions was discontinued. Alternatives 1 . Publish resolutions and bills . 2 . Publish only resolutions the Council or a resolution would so direct. 3 . Discontinue with publishing the bills . Suggest implementing any changes beginning January 1 , 1982 to coincide with the budget . Recommended ,Action Move to direct staff to discontinue the publication of the bills and resolutions (except those requested) beginning January 1 , 1982. • JSC/jms 1 .

Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Gregg Voxland, Finance Director RE: 1967 Improvement Fund DATE: September 21, 1981 Background: The two bond issues serviced by the '67 Improvement Fund have final payments due in 1983 and 1984. However, this fund has some tax levies scheduled but is short of cash and short of revenues in the long run ('83-'84) . It has a deficit fund balance and Council must address the funding of the deficit in order to pay the bonds and close out the fund. The problem may be compounded by the disposition of deferred assessments which the City Clerk is currently researching. The fund balance for this fund at 12/31/80 was $87,884, there was $73,050 in deferred tax levies and $106,910 plus fiscal agent fees to be paid for debt service. Thus, over the remaining life of the bonds, after allowing $6,000 for assessment interest, the fund is about $116,000 short. Alternatives: 1. Transfers from General Fund 2. Transfers from P.I.R. Fund 3. Transfers from 1971, 1973 and 1973-B bond issues as they are defeased (no significant monies until 1984) . 4. Tax Levy- provided for in bond indenture and is special levy. Rec ommenda t ion: Staff recommends a combination of #3 and #4. The 1971 issue is defeased and can be closed in the 1967 fund (fund balance at 8/31/81 is $2,615.19) . The 1973 fund has a large amount of Green Acre assess- ments and it's situation is uncertain for 1984. If it were not for the Green Acre issue, the 1973 and 1973-B funds could probably cover the 1967 shortage in 1984. Therefore, to be conservative, staff recommends levying an extra $15,000 for 1981/82 taxes in support of the 1967 bond issues. Action: 1. Move to direct City staff to take appropriate steps to close the 1971 Improvement into the 1967 Improvement Fund, and 2. Move to levy an additional $15,000 ad valorem tax for the 1967 bond issue.

They line up as follows: 1 . Derold Feltman - Rapid Roof $16 , 992 .00 without insulation 2. McDonald Roofing - Rapid Roof Bid includes 1" insulation $17, 245.00 - materials guarantee 3. McDonald Roofing - Rapid Roof Bid includes 2" insulation $22 , 997 .00 - materials guarantee 4. All Weather Roofing (Repair) Repair & reseal & gravel existing roof $12,300.00 - one year warranty 5 . All Weather Roofing - New carboline roof $31 , 159.00 - five year guarantee Recommendation: My recommendation is we go with the bid of All Weather Roofing for a carboline roof at $31 , 159.00. You may think this is not the most economical system by looking at the bid prices, however, it is the best system and will pay for itself in repair cost savings in the long run. I have information that indicates the rapid roof application has a tendency to bubble. Another problem I am encountering is I cannot get the factory to warrant the application only. The product and I can invision a problem, for example, if we developed a problem, the applicator could say it ' s the products fault, and the manufacturer could say no, it ' s the applicators fault. I recommend we budget for $31 , 159 . 50 and then put the project out on bids to all carboline installers. Regarding the old HV/AC system on the library, it is over twelve years old and will need replacing shortly, probably next year. I talked to you about it once. I assume you have provided for it. 3ou MEMO TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Judith S. Cox, City Clerk RE: Purchase of Part of N 1/2 of Block 30. 0. S.P. from Chicago, Milwaukee , St .
