D
B
A
E
The
cover
has
quail
hollow
pictures
on
it
and,
as
usual,
I
have
a
few
slides
to
go
through
some
highlights
so
getting
right
into
revenues.
This
is
a
chart
that
we
have
in
the
report,
and
this
slide.
I
was
going
to
talk
to
three
revenues
and
later
slide.
I
have
some
bullet
points
on
some
revenues.
Property
tax
as
usual
is,
is
very
stable.
That's
the
only
thing
to
talk
to
there.
Franchise
fees
are
the
same.
They
will
come
in
very
close
to
budget
as
they
as
they
usually
do,
and
then
liquor
tax.
E
We
just
saw
the
year-end
true
up
payment
and
it
is
down
from
last
year
about
six
hundred
thousand
dollars.
We
project
liquor
tax
will
come
in
slightly
under
budget.
It
is
not
a
large
revenue,
it
would
not
be
a
large
variance,
maybe
a
hundred
hundred
fifty
thousand,
but
that's
what
we
see
there
and
given
the
growth
in
liquor
tax,
it's
not
all
bad
that
some
of
the
revenue
is
going
down
means
people
are
no
longer
buying.
E
As
much
retail
liquor
and
staying
home,
so
revenues
are
are
projecting
slightly
ahead
of
budget,
then
on
the
expenses
the
place
to
start
here,
just
with
personnel
largest
expense.
We
are
at
seventy
percent
of
budget
through
june.
Our
third
quarter
benchmark
would
be
75
percent,
so
well,
under
that
with
vacancies,
salaries
are
at
69
slightly
lower.
Our
overtime
is
elevated,
and
that
includes
constant
staffing
and
fire
just
with
vacancies,
so
we'll
go
slightly
over
budget
there,
but
still
be
well
under
for
overall
personnel.
E
Our
health
care
is
a
little
bit
lower
and
we
vacancies
and
elections
appeared
to
play
a
role
there,
but
what
we
also
have
going
on
is
there
should
be
a
catch-up
booking
of
one
half
month
of
health
care
in
third
quarter.
Just
looking
at
that,
the
way
those
dates
fall.
E
The
next
category
there
is
m
o
and
the
the
subtotal
shows
62.
That
is
also
a
fair
bit
under
the
third
quarter
benchmark.
We
break
this
up
into
three
categories
now,
so
the
first
one
is
repairs
and
maintenance,
and
that
is
a
little
higher
than
the
benchmark,
and
that
is
due
to
the
timing
of
software
maintenance.
E
It's
a
large
cost
that's
earlier
in
the
year,
and
also
our
vehicle
maintenance
costs
are
a
little
higher
through
three
quarters.
So
that's
what's
pushing
that
up.
Supplies
and
materials
just
reflect
some
general
understanding
supplies
minor
equipment,
travel,
training,
things
like
that
one
category
in
there
is
fuel.
E
Our
fuel
is
over
90
percent
of
budget,
given
high
cost
fuels
which
are
moderating,
but
it
is,
we
have
more
than
enough
offsetting,
underspin
and
then
professional
services
is
is
quite
low
at
36
and
two
things
there
that
contribute
are
internal
vacancies
which
make
it
harder
to
get
projects
started
and
completed,
and
then
the
just
supply
shortage
of
external
labor
for
the
various
professional
services
we
procure.
E
So
that's
a
lot
of
that
will
will
end
up
being
carried
over
to
next
year.
Probably,
but
that
is,
is
trending
low,
then
just
to
run
through
the
final
categories
on
this
breakout.
We
do
now
for
expenses
with
a
little
bit
more
detail.
The
major
equipment
is
due
to
library,
acquisition,
materials
and
then
public
safety
grants
and
the
grants
were
just
due
to
timing.
E
That's
why
they're
at
31
percent,
the
other
is
our
contingencies
and
they
are
largely
unspent,
which
is
good,
but
that's
why
that
is
at
six
percent
and
then
our
grant
is
low
at
55
percent
due
to
vrt
and
we're
planning
to
set
aside
some
money
for
state
street
and
then
the
final
categories
are
transfers
out,
and
that
is
higher
just
due
to
the
timing
of
the
year-end
transfers.
We
did
after
the
end
of
fiscal
year
21
in
december,
and
then
the
transfers
to
the
capital
fund
so
total
in
some.
E
So
on
this
slide
now
back
to
revenues.
Just
briefly
with
sales
tax
again
for
the
last
quarter,
the
city
did
receive
what
we
call
full
growth.
Every
city
gets
one
percent
under
new
legislation
and
then,
depending
on
how
your
per
capita
revenues
are,
you
may
get
full
growth
that
came
in
an
extra
855
000.
So
instead
of
one
percent
growth,
it
was
16.8
percent,
plus
one
percent,
so
almost
18
growth
over
a
year
ago,
then
in
parking
and
fines
and
forfeitures.
E
Just
the
the
note
there
is
that
we're
still
slightly
below
our
pre
pandemic
levels
for
those
revenues,
just
a
little
less
traffic
and
got
some
staffing
issues
and
parking
just
we've
been
short
staffed
there.
So
just
that's
the
message
there.
With
those
those
revenues,
parks
fees
are
in
departmental
revenue
and
we're
going
to
go
over
budget
there,
and
the
good
news
is
is
park.
Revenues
are
back.
Some
of
this
is
idaho
ice
world,
but
a
lot
of
it
is
registration
fees
and
reservation
fees
for
parks
and
things.
E
F
E
Than
america
council
member,
it
used
to
be
that
way,
and
it
was
so
much
growth
would
occur,
and
that
would
be
what
most
every
city
got
based
on.
It
was
a
formula
using
population
and
value
of
real
estate.
E
It
narrows
the
band
of
high
to
low,
and
this
year
boise
has
gotten
that
three
quarters
in
a
row
and
it's
hard
to
predict.
We
may
well
see
it
again,
the
fourth
quarter,
and
then
that
is
such
a
large
increase.
Next
year
we
expect,
or
maybe
two
years
we'll
be
back
to
one
percent
growth.
E
Basically,
each
quarter,
approximately
half
the
cities
get
full
growth
and
half
are
restrained,
or
they
only
get
the
one
percent.
So
it's
either
one
percent
or
full
growth,
okay,
and
that
depends
on
how
this
per
capita
calculation
comes
out
each
quarter.
So
I
don't
know
if
I'm
answering
your
question
any
further
there,
but
we
we
counted
on
one
percent
growth
in
the
budget,
and
then
this
full
growth
was
was
unexpected,
and
so
it's
putting
us
well
over
budget.
Okay,.
F
E
E
And
then,
let's
see
parking
finds
riv
yeah
we're
still
below
pre-pandemic
levels.
There
parks
fees.
E
And
then
development
fees-
that's
where
it
was,
I'm
sorry.
So
we
are
already
over
budget
through
three
quarters.
There
we're
100
percent
of
of
the
the
budget
and
was
a
conservative
budget,
but
things
are
busy
and
playing
development,
and
we
project
will
be
about
four
million
dollars
over
budget
in
planning
development,
it's
driven
by
multi-family
and
and
commercial
construction,
and
the
last
two
in
parks
and
development
fees.
You'll
see
there
higher
cost
recovery.
Those
aren't
general
revenues
like
sales
tax,
where
that
is
just
something
we
can
use
for
general
government
purposes.
E
So
those
are
some
of
the
revenues,
largely
trending
above
where,
where
we've
projected
them,
then
on
to
expense.
Just
to
summarize
again
personal
understand,
significant
vacancies,
we're
at
70
percent
when
we
should
be
about
75
percent
emino
underspend
is
about
is
more
than
that.
We're
at
62
percent.
Our
total
expense
is
68..
E
E
So
unemployment,
if
we
look
at
march
compared
to
june,
actually
came
down
slightly
2.5
percent
to
2.4
percent
in
in
the
city.
The
economy
is
slowing
and
there's
still
a
lot
of
jobs
out
there,
but
I
just
looked
at
july,
and
the
numbers
came
down
for
boise
from
2.4
to
2.2
percent
and
ada
county
came
down
two
five
to
two
four.
E
Then,
when
we
look
at
our
metropolitan
statistical
area
and
compare
it
to
other
western
city,
msas
boise
is
doing
well
there.
It's
the
purple.
Third
from
the
left,
2.7
and
the
only
reading
lower
there
is
salt
lake
city
is
msa
at
2.4
percent,
so
out
of
nearly
400
msas
that
are
tracked
by
the
federal
government,
we're
tied
for
44th.
So
we
are
doing
well
there
in
terms
of
low
unemployment.
E
Another
slide
here
on
the
left
is
just
employment
is
now
tracking
above
pre-pandemic
levels,
the
if
you
can
see
the
blue
line
that
goes
across
half
of
the
graph
there
you
can
see
it
is
above
the
the
prior
year
line.
The
green
line
is
20
20..
You
can
see
when
the
pandemic
cause
employment
to
fall,
so
we
have
had
growth
in
jobs
and,
of
course,
we
have
in-migration,
which
is
helping
put
people
in
in
the
new
jobs.
E
Then
development
activity,
as
I
mentioned,
is
high
for
commercial
multi-family.
Most
of
the
the
readings
for
housing.
Single-Family
housing
are
down
some
of
that
just
due
to
more
space
out
in
the
valley,
but
we
have
lots
of
activity
in
commercial
projects
and
particularly
multi-family
projects.
E
Then
housing
inventory
has
improved
the
second
graph
down
on
the
right.
You
can
see
a
green
line
shooting
up
from
a
low
level,
and
that
is
the
active
residential
listings
and
that's
still
historically
or
traditionally
low,
because
those
were
some
very
low
years,
but
it
is
an
encouraging
sign
that
housing
inventory
is
coming
up.
E
Then
sales
tax
again
here
is
the
number.
The
revenue
sharing
number
the
increase
year
over
year
for
the
quarter
was
7.8
percent,
so
all
things
equal
if
it
had
just
gone
out,
that
would
be
what
everybody
would
have
gotten
all
the
cities
would
have
gotten
and
what
it
translates
to,
because
some
cities
were
relegated
to
just
one
percent.
Those
who
were
in
the
full
growth
got
a
much
higher.
Almost
18
percent
is
what
the
city
got.
E
Then
airport
traffic
that
is
just
back
to
similar
range
before
the
pandemic.
Lots
of
activity
out
there
an
interesting
thing
about
consumer
sentiment.
It
hit
an
all-time
low
in
june.
It
has
come
back
some
since
then
it's
responding
to
inflation.
It's
just
unusual
times.
The
economy
is
still
operating
fairly
well
and
yet
there's
concerns
about
different
things
and
that's
probably
what's
affecting
that
a
good
amount.
E
Then,
for
the
calendar
year,
real
gdp
is
projected
to
now
grow.
1.4
percent
a
quarter
goal
was
3
percent.
So
again,
economists
see
the
economy.
Slowing
federal
reserve
is
raising
interest
rates,
it's
having
an
effect
high
inflation
is
projected
to
fall
next
year.
The
graph
below
you
can
see
6.1
percent
for
this
year
down
to
3.1
percent,
is
an
estimate
for
next
year,
but
obviously
still
a
very
large
concern
that
is
is
affecting
the
economy.
D
And
mary
yeah
quick
question:
what
does
it
mean
to
be
at
an
all-time
low.
E
Madam
mayor
councilmember,
the
reading
we
get
is
from
the
university
of
michigan
a
well-known
consumer
sentiment
index
and
a
couple
years
ago
it
was
at
a
reading
of
a
hundred
just
a
general
consumer
sentiment
about
buying
things.
How
do
you
feel
about
being
employed
and
having
the
money
to
buy
things
and
that
it
was?
It
was
around
100
and
then,
since
the
pandemic
hit,
it's
been
in
the
70s
60s,
it
hit
a
low
of
50.,
and
it's
just
really
an
unusual
thing
that
has
happened
with
that
measure.
Since
the
pandemic
began.
D
E
E
Some
economists
have
talked
about
just
kind
of
the
the
mood
of
the
country
and
I
think
we're
just
a
little
worried
from
the
pandemic
and
there's
just
things
there's
enough
things
to
worry
about,
and
I
think
some
of
that
shows
up
here
and
inflation
is,
is
a
big
worry
which
is
getting
a
lot
of
attention.
Thank
you.
So,
hopefully,
we'll
improve
going
forward.
E
And
so
just
in
summary,
here
overall
revenues
return
to
normal
levels.
Summer
revenues
are
doing
very
well
expenditures
below
budget
driven
by
significant
staff
vacancies,
and
then
our
economic
conditions
reflect
a
fair
amount
of
uncertainty.
Yet,
and
still
things
are
are
doing.
Okay,
the
economy
is
functioning,
but
our
economy.
You
know,
there's
high
inflation,
they're,
slowing
growth,
there's
slow
results,
supply,
chain
challenges,
and
yet,
interestingly,
there
are
abundant
jobs.
So
those
offsetting
things
are
where
we
find
ourselves
and
we
will
continue
to
be
keeping
an
eye
on
it.
C
E
Madam
mayor
council
member,
this
is
active
residential
listings,
so
it
is
houses
for
sale.
Rental
inventory
is
a
good
question
with
all
the
multi-family
being
built.
I
think
it's
probably
helping
some
there,
but
certainly
rents
have
gone
up
with
housing
and
that's
another
area
which
is
difficult
for
many.
Many
people.
