Description
No description was provided for this meeting.
If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
A
A
A
It
shall
be
accompanied
by
a
budget
message
from
the
mayor
containing
explanations
of
General
fiscal
policies,
explanation
of
major
changes
and
recommended
for
the
next
fiscal
year,
a
general
summary
of
the
budgets
and
other
information
deemed
appropriate,
and
then
it
goes
on
to
say
that
copies
of
the
annual
operating
in
capital
budget
shall
be
posted.
This
is
one
of
the
things
I've
been
asked
shall
be
posted
on
the
website
of
the
consolidated
government
and
filed
in
the
office
of
the
clerk
of
council
and
shall
be
open
to
public
inspection.
A
This
is
the
first
of
several
meetings
that
we
will
have
to
look
at
the
budget.
Today's
meeting
is,
is
our
first
one,
so
we'll
have
an
overview
and
so
forth.
Then
next
week
May,
the
9th
after
the
regular
city
council
meeting,
we
will
have
additional
budget
hearing
and
budget
presentations
on
the
16th
of
may.
A
We
will
have
additional
department
heads
who
will
come
to
us
to
make
proposals
and
on
that
16th
we
do
what
we
call
our
add
delete
list
and
what
the
add
delete
list
means
is
that,
if
counsel
any
of
the
counselors
wish
to
add
something
to
the
budget,
we
put
it
on
this
list
and
if
you
add
something,
it's
your
responsibility
to
take
a
look
at.
Where
are
you
going
to
delete
that
same
amount
of
money
so
that
we
can
continue
to
balance?
A
A
A
Counselor
Davis
and
counselor
Garrett
are
with
us
virtually
this
morning
and
councilor
bigley
will
be
here
shortly.
So,
let's
see
today's
schedule
we'll
go
through
the
mayor's
letter,
the
city
manager's
letter.
We
will
look
at
the
overview
of
the
budget
and
we
will
have
a
presentation
from
our
health
care
providers
for
fiscal
24.
What
they
have
proposed
for
us
in
2024
we
will
have
an
infrastructure
update
and
then
that
ought
to
take
us
to
about
lunch
time.
A
We
think
and
we're
going
to
take
a
short
break
for
lunch
and
come
back
and
start
with
the
Departments,
and
today
the
only
one
that
is
currently
on
the
list
is
the
Sheriff's
Office
we'll
make
a
presentation
after
lunch.
It
may
be.
You
know
this
is
depending
on
the
time
and
so
forth.
It
may
be
before
lunch
or
or
whenever
we
get
to
that
point.
A
Counselor
John
house,
former
counselor
John
house,
was
that
Vice
chair
and
so
that
position
is
open.
What
I
had
taught
with
the
legal
department
about
how
we
need
to
do
that,
and
because
it
is
a
a
position
that
we
will
elect.
They
suggested
that
we,
if
anybody,
wants
to
nominate
someone
today
for
that
position.
We
can
then
put
that
on
the
agenda
for
our
meeting
next
week,
which
is
a
regular
council
meeting
to
elect
the
vice
chair,
or
you
can
wait
until
next
week,
even
if
you
want
to
nominate
an
additional
person.
A
Let's
see
we're
going
to
start
I'd
like
to
start
with
the
city
manager.
If
the
city
manager
has
remarks
that
he
would
like
to
make
to
us
and
Mr
city
manager,
as
I
said,
if,
if
you're
long-winded
and
you're
still
talking
to
one
of
the
mayor
gets
here,
we'll
stalk
you
and
let
him
make
his
remarks
to
the
council.
B
B
The
staff
our
finance
director,
Angelica
Alexander,
has
led
the
way
she
has
done.
An
awesome
job
and
members
of
her
team
are
here,
I
want
to
thank
them
and
commend
them
for
their
work,
and
this
has
been
you
know,
a
tough
process
and
when,
when
you
think
about
where
I
shared
with
you
on
different
occasions,
where
we
are
with
our
fund
balance
and
our
finances,
you
think
that
the
budget
process
is
going
to
be
not
as
difficult
as
it
has
been
in
past
years.
But
that
was
not
the
case.
B
In
fact,
I
found
it
more
difficult
than
in
past
years,
and
I
want
to
thank
elect
officials
and
department
heads.
They
submitted
their
budgets.
They
made
valid
requests
for
additional
personnel
and
we
thought,
as
we
started
the
process
if
we
were
going
to
be
able
to
provide
some
additional
Personnel
to
some
elected
officials
and
a
department
here,
because
the
positions
are
Justified.
B
They
need
those
positions
that
they
made
a
request
for,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day,
when
the
finance
director,
when
we
needed
to
balance
the
budget
as
and
the
mayor,
was
involved
every
step
of
the
way
even
on
the
city
manager's
end,
and
then
we
of
course
turn
it
over
to
the
mayor.
But
it
had
to
be
balanced.
B
And,
unfortunately,
you
will
hear
from
the
finance
director
that
many
of
those
well-deserved
positions
requested
by
elected
officials
and
department
heads
are
not
included,
because
we
were
not
able
to
figure
out
how
to
fund
them
and
and
have
a
a
balanced
budget.
And
so
it
was
a
very
difficult
process.
Yes
and
you'll
hear
more
from
the
finance
director,
but
I
know.
The
mayor
will
have
his
opening
remarks
comments
when
he
arrives
and
and
so
I
would
just
stop
there
I'm
at
a
budget
chair.
B
But
thanks
again
for
each
of
you
for
your
service,
for
your
work
and
for
what
we
know
you're
going
to
do
during
this
budget
process
and
thank
you
again
to
staff
who
worked
so
hard
from
the
finance
department
to
bring
forward
a
balanced
budget.
And
so
with
that.
I
will
yield
the
mic
and
wait
to
hear
from
the
mayor.
C
Good
morning,
so
as
the
state
of
manager
mentioned,
you
know
a
lot
of
Blood,
Sweat
and
Tears
late
nights
went
into
developing
the
budget
this
year.
It's
it.
It
really
isn't
incumbent
upon
us
to
make
sure
that
we
provide
the
information
that
we're
supposed
to
and
do
the
work
that
we're
supposed
to
so
that
every
year
the
budget
is
presented
when
it's
supposed
to
to
the
budget.
Review
Committee
for
consideration.
But
to
my
right
here
is
the
assistant
Finance
director,
Nicholas,
Klink
scales,
he's
been
with
us.
C
You
know,
he's
probably
been
the
longest
assistant
find
been
in
this
position.
The
longest
I've
had
three
over
the
my
seven
years
here
as
Finance
director.
So
Nicholas
is
a
great
asset
to
the
city
and
I'm
very
thankful
that
we
have
him
right
behind
me.
We
have
our
budget,
our
list,
our
newest
analyst,
Miss
Jasmine
mahogany.
C
We
actually
got
recruited
well,
she
came
from
the
state,
so
you
know
that's
a
win
for
us.
When
we're
able
to
draw
in
talent
for
the
city,
then
we
have
Anthony.
Montgomery
he's
been
with
us
for
a
while
now
close
to
five
years,
I
believe
and
our
most
senior
analyst
here,
I
couldn't
do
it
without
I
mean
certainly
couldn't
do
it
without
any
of
them,
but
but
Chanel
is
obviously
been
the
longest
serving
person
besides
myself
in
the
budget
office
and
Chanel
Johnson.
C
So
that
is
the
finance
staff
and
if
you'd
like
Madame
budgetier,
you
actually
went
through
all
the
things
that
I
was
going
to
sort
of
do
as
a
precursor
today
with
going
through
the
agenda
and
also
going
through
the
timeline
in
terms
of
the
budget
process.
So
if
it's
okay
with
you,
we
can
get
started
on
the
overview
presentation.
It
is
very
lengthy
because
it
does
encompass
the
entire
budget.
So
it's
about
65,
slats,
don't
pass
out
on
me
and
obviously
we'll
pause.
A
Okay
and
Miss,
Alexander
I,
will
say
to
the
counselors
who
are
here.
If
you
have
questions
or
comments
during
her
presentation,
it
probably
would
be
best
if
we
stop
and
ask
those
questions
before
we
is
that
all
right
with
you
miss
Alexander.
So
if
you
have
questions
or
or
whatever
be
sure
to,
let
us
know
and
we'll
stop
and
go
to
those
questions.
Miss
Alexander
you're
on
yes,
ma'am.
C
Obviously
we'll
talk
again
very
briefly
about
the
budget
process,
we'll
go
over
the
operating
budget
in
totality
to
include
any
capital
and
capital
Improvement
projects
we'll
go
through
our
agency
Appropriations,
as
well
as
our
non-operating
funds.
We'll
take
a
a
closer
look
at
that
at
our
other
local
option.
Sales
tax,
fine
and
make
mention
to
our
health
care
fun.
C
One
of
the
Departments
well
presentations-
that's
scheduled
for
today
is
NFP.
That
is
our
benefits.
Consultant
they'll
follow
up
behind
me
in
terms
of
the
order
of
presentations,
but
as
far
as
the
budget
process
again,
the
budget
is
submitted
to
council
by
the
mayor
no
less
than
60
days
prior
to
the
start
of
each
fiscal
year.
Our
fiscal
year
begins
July
1.
D
C
C
So
in
terms
of
the
schedule
just
again
today,
we're
going
to
go
through
the
overview
of
all
of
the
funds
operating
and
non-operating.
We'll
have
Department
presentations
scheduled
later
today,
but
also
we'll
hear
from
our
benefits
consultant
NFP
and
we'll
also
have
an
infrastructure
update
to
be
presented
by
Deputy
city
manager.
Hodge
on
the
ninth,
there
is
more
Department
presentations.
The
budget
review
session
will
actually
begin
after
the
regularly
scheduled
council
meeting
on
the
9th.
Hopefully,
we'll
have
a
light
meeting,
so
we
can
get
right
to
it
in
terms
of
the
budget
review.
C
There
are
a
significant
number
of
departments
on
the
schedule
that
was
provided
to
you
all
for
May,
9th
May
16th
will
have
a
very
limited
Department
presentations
and
then
the
add,
delete
list.
The
budget
chair
so
eloquently
gave
an
ex
a
good
explanation
of
what
that
ad
delete
list
is
and
what
that
what
that'll
mean
that
that
this
is
obviously
to
be
voted
up
or
down.
C
You
know
the
items
that
will
be
added
by
the
members
of
the
budget,
Review
Committee
throughout
the
budget
review
sessions
and
that
will
ultimately
change
or
modify
the
budget
as
proposed
by
the
mayor
in
June.
Again,
we'll
have
those
notices
that
go
out
in
the
newspaper
for
public
comment.
Those
taxpayer
bill
right
hearings.
Those
will
be
on
advertised
on
the
six
and
be
presented
on
the
13th
and
the
20th,
and
then
we'll
have
the
first
and
second
reading
of
the
budget
and
millage
ordinances
and.
A
C
C
So
in
terms
of
the
operating
funds
for
fy24
are
operating,
our
projected
revenues
are
322
million,
297
thousand
eight
hundred
and
forty
nine
dollars
our
projected
expenditures.
Our
budgeted
expenditures
are
332
million,
eight
hundred
eighteen
thousand,
eight
hundred
and
thirty
four
dollars.
There
is
a
use
of
fund
balance
included
in
the
budget
of
10
million
five
hundred
twenty
thousand
nine
hundred
and
eighty
five
dollars.
C
Just
a
note
here
that
four
million
of
the
fund
balance
total
that's
being
utilized,
is
due
to
non-recurring
expense
expenditures
such
as
one-time
Capital
purchases.
So
a
lot
of
the
capital
outlay,
that's
included
in
the
budget,
particularly
in
the
other
loss,
other
local,
other
local
options.
Sales
tax
fund,
the
sewer
fund,
the
paving
fund,
are
all
for
one-time
Capital
purchases,
there's
three
million
included
for
fire
and
EMS
contingency
plan.
C
What
that
means,
though,
is
there
would
be
additional
Personnel
in
the
fire
and
EMS
Department,
as
well
as
some
overtime
to
accompany
that
so
because
that
is
sort
of
up
in
the
air
right
now
that
is
included
in
the
budgets
in
the
budget
as
part
of
a
contingency,
then
there's
1.8
million
to
support
the
Integrated
Waste
fund
and
related
Services,
1.2
million
of
that
is
coming
as
a
direct
subsidy
from
the
general
fund.
The
other
600
plus
thousand
is
coming
from
Integrated
Waste
funds.
C
So
some
of
the
assumptions
for
the
FY
24
budget
there's
no
change
in
the
total
millage
rate
from
FY
23,
so
for
urban
service
District
number
one.
The
total
millage
is
17.51
meals
for
urban
service;
District
number
two,
it's
11.53
males
and
for
urban
service
District
Number
Four,
it's
10.63
meals.
There
is
a
two
percent
increase
projected
in
the
digest,
with
a
99
collection
rate,
there's
no
subsidy
to
the
general
I'm,
sorry
to
the
Civic
Center
fund
included
in
the
budget.
C
A
A
C
C
C
So
this
year's
budget
and
obviously
in
an
effort
to
balance
the
budget
for
the
general
fund,
there
was
a
reduction
in
the
subsidy
for
Oxbow
Creek,
it's
in
there
just
in
case,
and
if
it's
a
you
know
if
it
continues
that
the
subsidy
isn't
required,
you
know,
potentially
in
the
future,
we'll
be
able
to
decrease
that.
But
there
is
no
subsidy
in
the
in
the
budget
from
the
general
funds,
Who
Bull,
Creek,
Golf
Course
on
prior
years.
C
It
was
a
fifty
thousand
dollar
subsidy,
but
again
the
revenues
have
grown
so
exponentially,
for
the
golf
course
is
that
it's
not
warranted.
At
this
point,
the
value
of
one
operating
meal
is
four
million
885
427
of
the
value
of
one
meal
for
Debt
Service
is
five
million.
Two
hundred
forty
six
thousand
seven
hundred
and
sixty
nine
dollars
included
in
the
budget.
There
is
a
cost
of
living
adjustment
of
a
one
percent
which
basically
equates
to
one
step.
C
It
is
a
one-step
adjustment
for
all
active
employees
and
a
half
percent
increase
for
retirees.
This
is
effective:
July,
20,
July,
1st
of
2023,
excluding
elected
officials,
which
is
typically,
which
typically
follows
the
state
cost
of
living
adjustments
and
effective
for
a
January,
effective
date
in
terms
of
health
insurance.
The
city
is
continuing
the
contribution
strategy
of
73
from
the
city
and
27
from
employees
in
terms
of
the
health
insurance
premiums
prior
to
FY
23.
C
It
was
a
70
30
split,
but
an
FY
23
changed
to
73-27
and
we're
continuing
that
contribution
strategy
for
FY
24..
The
premium
rates
for
health
insurance
remain
unchanged.
If
you
participate
in
the
wellness
program,
participate
participation
in
the
wellness
program.
Just
basically
means
you
get
a
biometric
screening
done
and
at
our
health
and
wellness
center
and
participate
in
any
health
care.
Coaching
that
may
be
deemed
necessary.
C
So
again
in
terms
of
the
millage.
Here
you
can
see
from
FY
23
to
fy24.
There
is
no
change
in
the
village
for
urban
service
district,
one
two
or
three
again:
urban
service
District
one.
The
millage
is
17.51
meals,
urban
service
District
2
is
11.53
meals
in
urban
service,
District,
fours,
10.63
meals.
So
basically,
what
that
means
with
no
change
in
the
village
is
the
amount
that's
assessed
in
terms
of
the
value
of
your
home
remains
unchanged,
particularly
if
you
have
a
homestead
exemption.
C
The
only
changes
that
you
would
otherwise
see
in
terms
of
your
property
tax
bill
would
be
an
increase
in
the
assessed
value,
and
so
the
commercial
property
has
no
homestead
exemption.
So
obviously,
whatever
the
tax
assessor
assesses
as
the
value
of
that
property,
these
millage
rates
would
apply
to
that.
But
if
you
do
have
a
homestead
exemption
and
you
have
no
change,
you
haven't
made
any
improvements
to
your
property
and
the
assessed
value
of
your
property
Remains,
the
Same.
If
property
tax
bill
will
remain
the
same.
C
So
in
terms
of
the
FY
24
budget
for
All
funds,
as
you
can
see
here,
the
general
fund
represents
about
50
I'm,
close
to
55
percent
of
the
overall
operating
budget.
The
other
local
option
sales
tax
fund
is
second
at
13.6
percent,
while
the
transportation
and
Paving
funds
round
out
the
top
three
at
five
point:
five
percent
and
5.3
percent
respectively.
C
So
this
chart
here
just
shows
the
operating
expenses
by
tight.
As
you
can
see
here,
the
largest
portion
of
our
budget
at
about
57
percent
is
for
personal
services.
This
includes
paying
the
people
and
the
benefits
associated
with
paying
those
people.
Our
operating
budget
is
only
about
36
and
a
half
percent
of
the
total
budget,
with
the
capital
outlay
coming
in
at
four
percent
and
capital
Improvement
projects
being
about
2.2
percent.
C
So
in
terms
of
each
individual
fund,
we'll
just
start
with
the
general
fund.
Here
again,
the
use
of
fund
balance
is
3.
Million.
Of
of
the
some
balance
that's
listed
here
is
due
to
the
contingency
plan,
but
in
terms
of
revenues
that
we're
projecting
for
FY
24
we're
projecting
revenues
at
176
million,
523
366
dollars,
expenditures
at
182
million
three
hundred
sixty
thousand
three
hundred
and
95
dollars
for
a
difference
in
fund
balance
of
about
5.8
million
and
again
the
general
fund.
C
This
accounts
for
the
day-to-day
operations
of
the
city,
and
you
know
it
includes
fire,
please
Public,
Works
Parks.
We
wreck
the
courts.
It
is
again
primarily
funded
by
sales,
tax,
property
taxes
and
franchise
fees
and
I
know.
I've
said
it
like
three
times
already,
but
three
million
of
the
fund
balance
use
of
fun
balance
in
the
general
fund
is
for
the
Fire
EMS
contingency
plan
and
another
1.2
million
to
support
Integrated
Waste
activities,
foreign.
C
Manager
mentioned
there
were
a
lot
of
requests
that
were
received
by
Department
directors
and
elected
officials
for
new
Personnel.
I
was
actually
one
of
those
departments
that
requested
two
new
positions.
You
know,
and
it
was
just
one
of
those
things
that
could
not
be
accommodated
in
the
general
fund.
So
in
the
general
fund
there
are
no
new
positions.
C
There
are
some
classifications
that
are
included.
All
the
reclassifications
that
are
included
are
budget
neutral.
So
for
the
inspections
and
codes
Department,
there
is
a
reclassification
of
an
electrical
inspector
coordinator
g122,
and
these
are
the
first
time
we're
using
these
new
G
Codes
right
since
implementation
of
the
pay
plan.
The
new
G
Codes
are
listed
here,
but
inspector
coordinator
g122
being
reclassified
to
electrically
inspector
3G
122.
This
is
only
a
title:
change
I'm
also
in
the
inspection,
the
codes
Department,
a
plumbing,
slash,
mechanical
coordinator,
g122,
being
reclassified
to
a
plumbing
mechanical
inspector
g120.
C
This
actually
represented
a
savings
for
the
inspections
and
codes
Department,
there's
a
building
inspector
coordinator
g122
to
build
an
inspector
3G
122.
This
again
is
another
title:
change
for
the
Sheriff's
Office
reclassif
reclassifying
a
deputy
sheriff
PS1.
So
again,
these
are
the
new
grades.
You
know
that
were
implemented
with
the
new
pay
plan
reclassifying
the
deputy
share
PS1
to
accounting
clerk
g113
reclassifying
five
deputy
sheriff
ps125
sheriff
correctional
officers,
C1
that
actually
constitutes
the
savings.
A
C
C
That
is
a
question
that
we'll
have
to
ask
to
share
the
reclassifications
being
done
after
the
implementation
of
the
pain,
Compensation,
Plan
I
think
you
know
there
have
been
some
operational
changes
in
the
Sheriff's
Office
I
know
just
in
Prague
conversation
I,
don't
want
to
speak
to
sheriff.
Obviously
he's
going
to
speak
for
the
sheriff
he's
going
to
be
here
today.
I.
E
C
C
It
wasn't
a
situation
where
a
department
director
could
come
and
say,
I
want
to
do
this
reorganization
outside
of
the
budget
process,
because
of
the
implications
of
what
that
could
mean
that
actually
need
to
be
something
that
was
presented
to
the
to
the
council
for
deliberation,
discussion
and
approval.
Quite
honestly,
you
know
we
weren't
allowing
departments
to
do
reorganizations
as
part
of
the
paying
compensation
study.
C
It
was
really
taking
a
look
at
the
positions
that
you
currently
had
mirroring
those
up
against
the
market:
the
local
market,
other
government,
you
know,
cities
our
size
and
so
forth
and
saying
this
is
what
the
compensation
should
be
for
that
particular
position
that
you
already
have.
If
you
wanted
to
change
that
to
something
else,
especially
when
they
would
have
budget
implications
it
needed
to
come
during
the
budget
process.
E
A
C
E
E
F
B
And-
and
of
course
the
sheriff
will
be
here,
and
hopefully
he
will
explain
some
of
what
he
is
a
attempting
to
accomplish
and
and
I
think
it
has.
Some
of
it
has
to
do
with
enhancing
the
Staffing
for
the
mission
that
is
ongoing
for
them
and,
and
so
when
it
came
to
us
as
a
budget
review.
Excuse
me
as
prepping
and
pulling
together
the
budget
with
him
being
a
constitutional
officer.
B
He
presented
something
to
us
that
was
not
only
budget
neutral,
but
I
think
it
that
ended
up
saving
about
three
thousand
dollars.
So
it
was
not.
He
was.
His
reorganization
was
going
to
accomplish
the
mission
that
he's
trying
to
accomplish,
but
it's
also
going
to
save
this
city
budget
money
and
being
a
constitutional
officer
being
a
constitutional
officer
and
having
had
his
budget
in
the
previous
fiscal
year,
and
it
was
not
going
to
be
an
additional
expense
to
us.
We
brought
it
forward
in
the
budget.
C
C
There
is
no
capital
or
CIP
included
in
the
budget
as
being
presented
in
one
of
those.
The
thought
behind
that
was,
you
know
we'll
look
at
the
mid-year
for
FY
24,
just
as
we
did
for
FY
23..
It's
really
sort
of
see
where
we
are
to
see
where
we
actually
land
for
FY
23
and
make
recommendations
for
consideration
as
part
of
the
mid-year
budget
amendment
for
any
Capital
outlay.
That
may
have
not
been
included
as
part
of
the
proposed
budget.
C
This
is
obviously
including
some
of
those
mid-year
adjustments
where
we're
using
a
little
bit
of
fund
balance.
Also,
you
know
with
some
of
the
revenues
that
we're
seeing
and
savings
that
we
may
encounter
as
we
get
closer
to
the
end
of
the
fiscal
year
but
46.80
days
for
the
other
loss
funds
for
a
cumulative
total
of
129.25
days
and
where
we're
beginning
and
we're
Excavating
for
fy24
for
the
general
fund,
I'm
74.64
days
for
the
other
local
option,
sales,
tax
funds
40.74
days
or
a
cumulative
total
of
115.38
days,
foreign.
C
So,
moving
on
to
the
storm
water
fund,
the
storm
water
fund
accounts
for
activities
restricted
for
storm
water
and
drainage
maintenance.
This
fund
is
primarily
funded
with
property
taxes
I'm
sorry
again,
there
is
no
change
in
the
millage
here
for
the
some
water
funds.
It
remains
at
1.24,
meals
in
urban
service,
District
number
one
and
.20
meals
for
urban
service,
District
number.
Two
and
again,
the
use
of
fund
balance
that
you
see
here
is
only
for
a
one-time
Capital
purchases.
C
There
are
no
recurring
spend
expenditures
in
which
we're
using
fund
balance
for
in
this
fund.
It's
only
one-time
Capital
purchases
in
the
stormwater
fund.
There
are
no
Personnel
adjustments
in
terms
of
the
capital
purchases,
which
is
one
million
55
110
about
382
500
of
that
is
allocated
to
engineering
they're,
going
to
use
that
to
purchase
a
ibac,
SD
350
truck
with
equipment.
C
This
is
I
had
to
look
that
up
see
exactly
what
type
of
truck
and
it's
the
camera
truck.
It's
a
camera
truck
that
they
use
that
has
all
of
this
trucks
they
use.
It
has
all
the
equipment
and
the
cameras
and
so
forth
to
inspect
the
underground
pipes
within
the
sewer,
and
that
comes
in
it's
a
replacement
and
it
comes
in
at
a
budgeted
at
341
thousand
dollars,
they're
also
requesting
an
eight
passenger
van.
It's
also
a
replacement
at
forty
one
thousand
five
hundred.
C
It
is
also
a
replacement
at
forty
thousand
seven
hundred
and
seventy
eight
dollars
a
seven
yard,
dump
truck
that
they're,
replacing
coming
in
at
just
over
a
hundred
and
eight
thousand
a
portable
crawler
pipe
inspection
camera.
This
is
new
equipment
for
them
at
75,
000,
an
angle
broom
Detachment
for
their
skid
steer
at
this
is
also
new
equipment
at
8
500
and
then
two
hand
temps
at
fifty
two
hundred
dollars.
C
I'm
moving
on
to
the
paving
fund,
so
we
have
revenues
budgeted
at
16
million,
487
894.
expenditures,
budgeted
at
17
million
six
hundred
fourteen
thousand
seven
hundred
and
sixty
one
dollars
for
a
difference
of
one
million,
one
hundred
twenty
six
thousand
eight
hundred
and
sixty
seven
dollars
again.
The
payment
fund
accounts
for
the
maintenance,
improvements
of
our
roads
and
bridges.
It
is
also
another
fund
that
is
primarily
supported
with
property
taxes.
C
C
Again
there
are
no
Personnel
adjustments
in
the
paving
fund
and
in
terms
of
the
capital.
As
far
as
the
distribution
of
that
about
60
three
thousand
six
hundred
sixty
dollars
is
for
engineering
they'll
use
that
to
purchase
a
full-size
Explorer,
it's
a
replacement
just
over
56
000
and
then
two
Lenovo
extreme
G5
touch
laptops
just
just
around
seven
thousand
of
those
laptops
they
use
for
GIS
activities,
and
so
these
are
not
the
laptops
that
you
and
I
have
they're
ones.
C
That
are
extremely
capable
of
handling
heavy
heavy
activity
in
terms
of
data.
As
far
as
the
public
works,
their
allocation
is
just
over
a
million
and
they'll
use
that
million
for
a
crew
cab,
pothole
patch
truck
it's
a
replacement
coming
in
at
280
000
and
then
three
street
sweepers,
with
the
maintenance
package
coming
in
at
about
783
000.,
there's
no
CIP
money
included
in
the
paving
fund.
C
This
is
actually
one
of
those
things
that
we
talked
about
doing
you
know
implementation
of
the
pay
plan,
because
we
have
so
many
other
sources
in
terms
of
providing
funding
for
our
roads
and
bridges.
You
know
with
the
newly
approved
well
reapproved
I
should
say
t
sploss,
as
well
as
some
CIP
funding
for
Paving
coming
out
of
the
old
loss,
infrastructure
and
I'll
pause,
Madam
chair.
A
G
G
I
do
have
to
give
lift
up
our
Public
Safety
folks,
because
you
know
they
work
together.
You
know
solving
and
and
preventing
crime,
but
it's
good
to
see
them
pull
together
for
the
Special
Olympics
too.
So
it
was.
It
was
a
great
great
start,
so
I
apologize
for
my
tardiness
and
I'm
not
going
to
be
redundant.
I'm
sure
that
the
finance
director
and
the
city
manager
have
touched
on
the
highlights
I'll
just
kind
of
reiterate
what
I
mentioned
when
we
presented
the
budget-
and
that
is
this-
was
a
tough
budget.
G
We
Council
made
a
a
bold
move,
one
that
had
to
be
made
to
try
to
implement
a
pay
plan
that
allowed
us
to
be
competitive,
moving
forward
for
labor
force.
That
is
absolutely
essential
in
order
to
continue
to
fund
what
we
do
for
the
for
the
citizens.
But
there
are
some
challenges:
I
think
we
had
a
little
over
a
million
dollars,
maybe
one
point
two
or
three
million
dollars.
It
was
used
from
the
general
fund
to
plug
some
holes
in
the
fund
balance
in
our
Integrated
Waste.
G
We
all
are
well
aware
of
the
problems
we've
had
in
in
trying
to
fulfill
our
commitment
to
the
citizens
with
regards
to
collecting
collecting
waste.
We
also
are
going
to
have
some
challenges
because
of
some
changes
in
the
environment,
on
how
we
provide
Emergency
Medical
Services,
so
that
too
is
going
to
create
some
some
issues.
G
One
thing
we
were
committed
to
was
keeping
money
in
the
pockets
as
much
as
we
could
of
our
employees,
so
individual
employees
that
participate
in
the
wellness
program
will
not
see
an
increase
in
their
participation
level
for
their
insurance
for
for
this,
this
cycle,
so
it
made
Capital
purchases
difficult,
but
two
I
guess
Silver
Linings,
with
regards
to
not
having
a
lot
in
capital
with
this
budget
presented
to
you
today
is
that
there
are
a
lot
of
alternative
funding
methods
that
our
citizens
have
recently
voted
to.
Allow
us
one
is
flossed.
G
We
also
have
some
arpa
money
that
is
still
I,
think
your
marked
for
some
of
the
capital
but
and
the
other
is
that
right,
the
accounting
function
of
balancing
a
budget.
We
know
that
we're
going
to
be
more
aggressive
and
do
better
and
or
have
a
better
opportunity
to
add
to
our
labor
force,
but
it's
not
going
to
happen
overnight.
G
C
So
the
Indigent
care
fine
here
was
budgeted
again
is
2.5
meals,
we're
projecting
that
to
be
12
just
a
little
bit
more
than
12
million,
almost
12.1
million
and
the
engine
care
fund
accounts
for
funding
those
health
care
services
for
medically
Indigent
residents
of
Muskogee
County
to
include
certain
services
for
inpatient
and
outpatient
care
for
the
inmates
at
the
Muscogee
County
Jail
foreign,
so
the
Integrated
Waste
fund.
Here
revenues
are
projected
at
14
million.
H
I
I
know
that
I
had
quite
a
bit
of
discussion
about
how,
when
we
were
implementing
this,
how
many
meals
we
were
going
to
put
towards
the
Indigent
care
fund
and
I'm
curious
what
we
did,
how
much
we
spent
last
year,
how
much
we
allocated
and
then
how
much
we
actually
spent.
Did
we
allocate
gate
too
much
or
were
we
short.
C
C
There
is
a
certification
process
that
they
will
have
to
go
through
in
terms
of
their
determination,
the
termination
of
being
medically
indigent,
but
the
RFP
was
put
out
so
that
we
could
provide
primary
care
services
and
certain
other
services
outpatient
services
to
people
that
are
medically
energy,
as
well
as
to
those
services
that
are
provided
to
inmates
outside
of
the
jail,
and
we
do
have
a
provider,
a
medical
provider
in
the
jail.
But
they
only
provide
services
to
inmates
while
they're
in
the
jail.
C
I
C
B
There
would
be
multiple
vendors
and
then
they
could
submit
and
we
would
reimburse
them
for
the
expenses
they've
incurred
during
the
interim
of
not
having
a
direct
contract
with
a
single
vendor
or
multiple
vendors,
but
any
of
them
will
be
able
if
they
are
taking
care
of
indigent,
submit
to
be
reimbursed,
and
we
reduced
the
amount
from
three
meals
that
we
had
done
over
the
last
30
years
to
a
2.5
meals.
And
we
would
go
through
this
RFP
process
that
they
are
wrapping
up,
concluding
and,
of
course,
I'm
not
involved
in
that
process.
B
But
what
I
do
anticipate
is
that
they
are
going
to
bring
forward
recommendations
to
Mayor
and
Council
and
though
I
haven't
been
involved
in
the
process
and
I'll
continue
to
say
that
I
don't
know
anything
about
what
they're
doing
in
that
process.
But
what
I
anticipate
is
that
they
will
bring
forward
multiple
vendors
that
will
be
able
to
provide
Indigent
care
in
a
way
that
it
has
not
been
done
over
the
last
30
years.
B
B
I
C
There
was
a
small
amount
spent
for
some
medical
bills
related
to
the
jail
inmates
at
the
jail
I'll
get
that
number
here
in
just
a
moment,
but
as
what
the
process
at
the
city
manager
described,
we
have
not
received
reimbursement
for
any
Indigent
care
charges
for
FY
23,
because
the
RFP
process
has
not
yet
completed
so
I.
Don't.
I
I
So
what
happens
with
those
those
funds
that
we
set
aside
for
for
the
budget
I
mean
I
would
think.
I
would
just
think
that
if
I
were
one
of
those
care
providers
that
had
already
been
getting
incident
care
or
had
come
to
us
and
say
we
want
to.
We
want
to
be
reimbursed
for
Instant
Care.
It
wouldn't
take
them
a
year
to
apply
in
the
RFP
process.
C
You
know
the
process
didn't
exactly
start
in
July
I
mean
in
terms
of
I
know.
There
were
presentations
that
were
given
by
Deputy
city
manager
Hodge
around
that
time,
but
in
terms
of
the
funding,
one
of
the
things
that
we
have
to
make
sure
of
that
we
have
in
hand
is
the
money
right,
so
the
property,
the
first
installment
of
our
property
taxes
weren't
due
until
October
15th,
but
the
second
installment
due
December
1st,
so
from
a
funding
perspective
to
make
sure
that
we
have
the
funding
in
place.
C
The
RFP
sort
of
started
in
the
second
quarter
of
the
fiscal
year
to
sort
of
align
with
the
collection
of
the
property
tax
revenue,
so
that
we
would
have
the
money
on
hand
and
I
will
say
that
the
process
has
gone
on
for
some
time
now.
Due
to
you
know
various
delays
and
it
you
know
it's
not
where
it's
always.
I
What
I
guess
I
guess
the
bottom
line?
What
I'm
trying
to
get
to
is
we
have.
We
have
no
way
of
comparing
what
we
set
aside
last
year
and
and
what
we're
planning
to
set
aside
this
year,
because
I
wanted
to
see
a
comparison,
because
I
still
think
2.5
mils
is
we're,
saying
we're
setting
aside
too
much,
which
could
free
up
some
funding
for
some
of
the
other
things
in
the
challenge.
C
B
We
anticipated
that
we
would
know,
and-
and
several
of
you
raised
a
question
last
year-
is
2.5
going
to
be
enough
and
we
thought
that
we
would
have
had
requests
from
multiple
agencies
organizations
by
now
that
we
could
say
it's
on
track
that
we're
good
with
2.5
or
it's.
It
looks
like
it's
going
to
be
two
meals
or
it
looks
like
it's
going
to
be
more
than
2.5
and
3
would
be
the
right
number.
We
just
don't
have
that
for
look.
B
B
We
just
what
you
just
said.
I
wish
we
had
that
information
and
we
anticipate
I
think
we
even
told
you
we
thought
we
would
have
it
by
next
budget
year
that
we
would
be
able
to
tell
you
whether
it's
enough
or
not,
and
we
just
don't,
but
the
one
thing
I
want
to
assure
those
who
are
providers
who
are
providing
energy
care
and
required
to
provide
It
Anyway
is
when
we
get
through
this
process.
They'll
be
able
to
submit
for
reimbursement
that
goes
back
during
those
fiscal.
B
And
so
they
will
be
getting
their
money
and
it's
a
reimbursable
process,
but
we
just
don't
you're
right
on
point.
We
just
don't
have
what
you,
okay,
what
you
just
asked
and
what
we
thought
we
would
have,
but
you're
what
you
said
is
absolutely
on
point
in
what
we
said
to
you.
We
thought
we
would
have
about
this
too.
J
B
Person
and
I
will
yield
to
the
finance
record
and
Deputy
city
manager,
but
what
what
I
anticipate
is
that
we
are
going
to
encumber
those
funds
for
fiscal
year
23
as
we
come
to
the
close
and
and
they
will
have
an
opportunity
if
their
expenses
occur
during
this
fiscal
year,
they
will
have
an
opportunity
to
go
after
those
incumbent
funds
and
get
reimbursed
I,
just
don't
have
a
time
frame
or
know
if
they
have
the
time
frame.
But
that's
a
good
question.
C
So,
typically
after
we
close
the
fiscal
year,
we
do
try
to
make
sure
that
we
have
captured,
at
least
for
the
first
90
days,
60
to
90
days
after
the
close
of
the
fiscal
year.
All
of
the
expenditures
that
have
been
that
were
applicable
to
the
prior
fiscal
year,
so
they'll
certainly
have
that
time
frame
in
terms
of
being
a
submit.
Those.
C
The
audit
process,
beyond
that
60
90
day
window,
any
other
adjustments
in
terms
of
what
may
come
in
from
them.
Hopefully,
they'll
have
everything
submitted
to
us
within
that
69
a
day
window,
so
we
won't
have
to
make
any
adjustments
during
the
audit
process.
But
until
we
finalize
the
audit
we'll
be
making
adjustments
to
FY
23.
is.
J
B
C
B
J
J
C
J
So
that's
that's
the
reason
why
I'm
asking
so
we
can
kind
of
you
know.
Let
those
providers
know
that
after
this
date
they
cannot
and
then
I
think
it'll
help
with
counselor
crabs.
You
know
concerns
in
reference
to
how
much
money
has
been
spent.
You
know
total,
where
we
can
actually
see
and
forecast
right
for
this.
Okay,
yeah.
B
D
F
D
D
F
C
C
C
The
revenue
number
that
the
14
million
Revenue
number
does
include
a
subsidy
from
the
general
fund
of
1.2
million,
so
minus
the
general
fund
Revenue
would
be
actually
about
13.7
million
from
Integrated
Waste
operating
revenues
and
then
the
use
of
fund
balance
that's
listed
here
is
to
continue
the
privatization
of
our
yard
waste
collections
with
potentially
a
three-month
phase
out.
I
do
know.
C
Yeah
the
prior
council
meeting
I
projected
that
we
would
end
the
year
with
about
2.5
million
in
reserve,
so
the
600
and
79
000
would
keep
us
at
the
gfoa
recommendations,
but
in
terms
of
what's
included
what
else
is
included
in
the
Integrated
Waste
fund?
And
there
are
no
Capital
or
CIP
that's
included,
and
there
are
no
Personnel
adjustments.
C
Moving
on
to
the
e911
fund
revenues
at
4.3
million
expenditures,
at
4.3
million
no
differences
there,
the
e911
account
fund
accounts
for
subscriber
surcharges
and
collection
for
emergency
dispatch.
This
is
primarily
funded
with
landline
and
surcharge
to
our
landline
and
wireless.
That's
a
dollar
fifty
I'm
surcharge
that
is
charged
out
for
having
a
cell
phone,
a
home
phone
or
a
prepaid
phone.
C
These
revenues
are
collected
by
the
state
and
the
revenues
that's
listed
here
does
include
again
a
subsidy
from
the
public
safety
or
loss.
This
is
the
first
year
I
believe
in
the
last
two
years,
where
we've
had
to
include
a
subsidy
to
support
the
expenditures
in
the
e911
fund,
so
that
subsidy
is
253,
689
000.
C
for
The
Economic,
Development
Fund.
The
budget
is
2
million.
Four
hundred
eighteen
thousand
two
hundred
and
eighty
six
dollars,
The
Economic
Development
Fund
accounts
for
0.50
meals
and
it's
used
for
attract
attracting
jobs
and
broadening
the
tax
base.
So
job
creation
and
retention
are
key
components
of
the
economic
development
funding.
The
Development
Authority
actually
receives
half
of
the
millage
or
0.25
meals
that
is
budgeted
at
1
million
209
143
dollars.
The
NCR
Blue
Cross
commitment
is
also
funded
with
economic
development
funds.
This
is
actually
from
the
cities:
0.25
meals.
C
In
the
economic
development
side,
foreign
service
fund
accounts
for
the
accumulation,
the
disbursement
of
principal
interest
payments
on
the
military.
It
remains
unchanged
at
0.83
meals.
The
millage
increase
from
last
year
well
from
FY
22
to
FY
23,
was
to
account
for
some
bonds
that
we
issue
in
FY
23,
and
so
that
remains
unchanged,
though,
for
fy24
at
0.83
meals,.
C
Excuse
me:
Transportation
fine
is
at
18
million
451
000
236
dollars
in
expenditures
and
revenues,
there's
no
use
of
fund
balance
for
the
match
of
Transportation
fund
and
again
this
accounts
for
the
operations
of
our
public
transit
system.
It
is
primarily
funded
from
property
taxes,
federal
and
state
grants,
as
well
as
user
charges
and
t-scloths.
C
This
is
for
the
operation
of
the
Uptown
shuttle
and
there's
reclassification
of
a
Transit
security
specialist
g113
to
Transit
security,
specialist
g116
I'm,
a
capital
outlay
is
significant
at
close
to
8.9
million
dollars.
2.8
million
of
that
is
FTA
funded
about
a
million
dollars
is
included
from
Teslas.
We
need
to
we're
finishing
out
the
cares
funding
that
we
receive
from
the
treasury
just
over
19
297
dollars
and
then
there's
a
five
million
dollar
inclusion
for
of
congressional
discretionary
spending.
C
C
B
And
I
I
must
say,
ma'am
chair
that
they
are
doing
pretty
well
with
the
pay
plan
implementation.
They
are
starting
to
see
new
drivers
coming
on
board.
Now
in
those
four
positions
you
know,
we've
talked
to
you
about
the
Uptown
shuttle,
golf
cart
shuttle
and
all
of
that
that
will
service
I
believe
that
the
city
manage
a
good
one.
Those
golf
carts,
none
CDL
and.
B
Are
yes,
that's
right
now,
and,
and
so
they
could
also
drive.
You
know
because
we're
buying
some
smaller
buses
that
do
not
require
CDL
So
Not
only
would
they
be
able
to
drive
golf
carts,
but
those
smaller
buses
that
you
see
like
Dollar
Ride
buses.
They
they
would
be
able
to
drive
those
as
well
yeah,
because
with
the
smaller
buses
we
don't
they're
they're
not
required
to
have
CDO.
B
A
C
Moving
on
to
the
Trade
Center
fund
revenues
at
3
million
935
301
expenditures
are
the
same.
There's
no
use
of
fund
balance
here
on
the
Trade
Center
fund
accounts
for
the
operations
of
the
of
that
particular
facility
and
from
a
funding.
Standpoint
is
primarily
funded
from
their
event.
Proceeds
as
well
as
beer
tax
revenue
at
about
680
000
and
hotel
motel
taxes
at
about
725
000..
C
There
are
some
Personnel
adjustments
again.
The
Trade
Center
fund
is
a
Enterprise
fund.
It
is
self-supporting,
so
the
Personnel
that's
included
here,
is
supported
with
the
revenues
from
within
the
fund,
but
there
are
a
new
in
the
Trade
Center
operations
area
event
attendant
crew,
leader
g15,
g115,
sorry,
event,
attendant
1G
112
and
four
custodians
G11
and
there's
a
reclassification.
C
So
then,
for
the
golf
courses,
Bull
Creek
golf
courses,
the
budget
is
balanced
at
one
million
nine
hundred
and
fifteen
thousand
again.
That
includes
no
subsidy
from
the
general
fund.
There
are
two
Personnel
adjustments
where
they're,
adding
a
maintenance,
intern
and
reclassifying
a
grill
server
to
a
real
server
manager.
There's
no
Capital
outlay,
that's
listed
for
or
included
I
should
say
for
Bull
Creek
for
Oxbow
Creek.
The
budget
is
balanced
at
595
000.
It
does
include
one
hundred
thousand
dollars
subsidy
from
the
general
fund.
C
There
are
no
Personnel
adjustments
and
including
the
budget
is
about
five
thousand
for
Capital
for
Oxbow
for
the
Civic
Center
fine,
the
budget
is
balanced
at
5
million
three
hundred
thirty
six
thousand
seventy
four
dollars
the
Civic
Center
fund
accounts
for
operations
of
that
particular
facility
and
it's
primarily
again
funded
by
event
proceeds
as
well
as
hotel,
motel
Revenue.
Coming
in
at
about
1.45
million.
C
There
is
no
general
fund
subsidy
included
in
the
budget
for
the
Civic
Center.
There
are
a
couple
Personnel
adjustments.
They
are
deleting
your
food
and
beverage
coordinator,
g119
and
then
adding
a
event
Cultural
Arts
coordinator
at
g119.
So
that
is
a
but
basically
a
swap
it's
budget
neutral
and
then
the
reclassification
of
the
event
services
manager
g124
to
the
Civic
Center,
slash
cultural
Affairs
assistant
director
at
g131.
B
Just
to
Finance
the
record,
so
the
the
Civic
Center
fund
and
Enterprise
fund
is
balanced,
and
that
includes
the
operations
of
the
Liberty
Theater.
I
just
want
to
make
that
clear.
That
includes
the
operations
of
the
Liberty
Theater
at
this
time
and
and
that
position
that's
been
added,
is
in
support
of
the
Liberty
Theater
and
they're
balanced
I
I
just
want
to
make
that
point.
C
C
There's
no
premium
increases
for
2024
with
the
wellness
incentive
options,
our
Consultants
NFP
they're,
actually
here
and
they'll
present,
and
discuss
more
about
the
options
and
provide
an
update
in
terms
of
our
health
care
costs
just
in
general,
so
the
risk
management
fund,
the
budget
is
6
million,
two
hundred
thirty
one
thousand
seven
hundred
and
two
dollars
again.
The
risk
management
fund
is
an
internal
service
fund
and
it
accounts
for
the
general
liability
claims
which
include
vehicle
claims,
property
claims,
as
well
as
workers,
compensation.
C
C
Those
pretty
much
remain
unchanged,
with
the
exception
of
the
River
Valley
Regional
Commission,
the
River
Valley
Regional
Commission.
The
annual
allocation
is
based
on
the
estimated
population,
it's
one
dollar
per
capita
and
so
for
FY
24.
It's
200
205
617
dollars
that
were
included
in
the
budget,
all
of
it
agency
Appropriations
for
New
Horizons
for
those
Mental
Health
Services,
the
health
department
that
we're
required
by
the
state
to
support
as
well
as
defects
and
the
airport
commission,
remain
unchanged.
So.
A
A
C
In
terms
of
the
Appropriations
that
are
listed
here
there,
they
are
required
to
some
extent,
with
the
exception
of
defects
and
New
Horizons,
those
cert.
Those
are
Appropriations
that
are
provided
for
the
services
that
they
provide.
Just
do
the
general
community
so
for
River,
Valley
Regional,
we're
required
by
state
law
to
provide
annual
support
for
the
commission
and
again,
that
is
based
on
a
dollar
per
capita
for
New
Horizons.
C
We
do
and
have
provided
a
annual
allocation
for
mental
health
services
that
they
provide
to
the
general
Community
or
also
for
drug
treatment
services
and
so
for
the
health
department.
That
is
also
another
requirement
of
the
state
that
we
provide
so
much
funding
to
our
health
department.
It
is
a
state
agency,
but
it
must
be
supported
in
funding
and
in
Space
by
the
local
government,
the
Department
of
Family
and
Children's
Services.
This
is
for
the
assistance
that
they
provide
to
us
for
our
Juvenile
Courts.
C
C
In
terms
of
the
support
that
they
provide
to
our
juvenile
court
system,
we
provide
some
funding
for
a
person,
I
believe
it's
an
advocate,
if
I'm
not
mistaken,
for
a
Department
of
Family
and
Children's
Services,
and
then
for
the
airport
commission,
there's
some
old
ordinance
of
some
sort
on
the
books
that
we
would
provide
for
a
thousand
dollars
in
support
of
the
airport.
Thank.
A
C
So
then
we
move
on
to
our
non-operating
funds.
These
funds
account
for
they're
not
for
the
general
operations
of
the
government,
they're
restricted
for
a
specific
purpose
and
they
must
be
budgeted
annually
and
maintained
in
a
separate
fund,
and
so
the
urban
or
the
you
dag
fine
is
invited
at
ten
thousand
dollars.
There's
a
home
program
at
one
million,
seven
in
one
thousand
two
hundred
and
fifty
Seven
dollars
our
multi-grant
fund.
C
This
is
the
fund
where
we,
you
know
all
the
grants
that
come
before
the
council
that
Council
approved
for
us
to
apply
for
is
out
of
this
fund
and
we're
just
estimating
a
budget
of
nine
point,
almost
9.5
million
for
for
next
year,
based
on
the
our
current
allocations.
For
this
year,
the
hotel
motel
tax
fund
is
budgeted
at
5.8
million
and
I
will
say.
You
know
we
re.
C
C
C
C
Tad
number
two,
which
is
Sixth
Avenue
and
Liberty
300
000,
the
Uptown
tab.
Number
three
did
not
go.
Oh
sorry,
Uptown
tab
number
three
Uptown
district
is
at
a
million
on
tap
number
four,
which
is
Second
Avenue
in
City
Village,
415,
000,
number,
five
Midtown
West,
it's
748
thousand
and
tap
number
six
midtown
east
at
25,
000.
C
C
C
It's
budgeted
at
43
million
for
a
capital
projects
fund.
This
is
those
ongoing
or
I
should
say,
CIP
projects
that
we've
included
in
the
budget
for
this
year,
as
well
as
those
that
are
carrying
over
from
prior
prior
years.
That
budget
is
21
million,
500
335,
117,
patisse
lost
the
budget
is
55
million.
Three
hundred
and
fifty
thousand.
C
For
the
99
I'm
sorry
19.99
lost
just
at
4.7
million
for
the
Columbus
building
authority,
lease
revenue
bonds,
the
2003
a
series-
that's
at
445,
000
2000
B
series
is
just
at
4.5
million.
That's
the
monies
that
we're
still
sort
of
holding
on
to
to
complete
the
construction
of
a
parking
deck
at
the
Trade
Center.
So
in
in
once,
we
get
to
some
point
we'll
be
utilizing
that
funding
as
well
as
2021
Splash
funding.
Now
to
complete
that
project,
then
there's
the
CBA
buns
2018
series
at
130,
000.
C
The
22A
and
B
Bonds
were
for
the
City
Hall,
so
I
anticipate
as
we
expand
those
funds.
You
know.
Obviously
those
two
will
go
away
from
what's
being
reported
here.
Then
we
have
the
2021
Splash
project
fund.
These.
This
is
the
fund,
where
we're
setting
up
all
the
various
projects,
such
as
the
pools,
the
capital
outlay
and
so
forth,
for
Public
Safety
we're
budgeting
that
at
33
million
I'm
201
349
dollars
the
Geo
bonds,
the
GEOS
sales
tax
bonds
to
2022
series
at
150
million.
C
To
the
olao
spine,
revenue
is
a
budgeted
at
43.4
million
expenditures
at
45
million,
two
hundred
twenty
two
thousand
nine
hundred
and
seventy
nine
dollars
a
difference
there
of
1.8
million
in
terms
of
use
of
fund
balance.
The
Olas
fund
is
a
sub
fund
of
the
general
fund,
but
the
sales
taxes
are
segregated,
with
70
percent
of
the
proceeds
being
allocated
to
Public
Safety
30
percent
being
allocated
to
infrastructure
that
was
done
at
the
direction
of
this
Council
and
again.
The
use
of
fund
balance
that's
listed
here
is
for
one-time
Capital
purchases.
C
And
again
you
know
we
do
allocates
in
the
budget
funding
for
community-based
programs
designed
to
reach
at-risk
U
and
those
returning
to
the
community
after
serving
time
in
prison.
So
from
an
infrastructure
standpoint,
the
way
we
Define
that
it
includes
our
roads
and
bridges
as
well
as
storm
water
and
flood
abatement
projects.
Some
technology
projects,
as
well
as
capital
projects
which
include
construction,
maintenance
and
Renovations
of
our
buildings
and
Facilities,
obviously
to
help
support
the
quality
of
life
as
well
as
House
Government
operations.
C
So
infrastructure
improvements
could
include
pay-as-you-go
projects.
What
are
which
are
funded
from
current
proceeds
of
sales
tax
collections,
which
we
do
on
an
annual
basis
as
an
allocation
to
roads
and
storm
water
and
facilities,
and
then
there
are
some
of
those
long-term
projects
that
are
funded
through
the
issuance
of
bonds,
which
included
in
the
past.
You
know
the
city
services
Center,
this
building,
the
natatorium,
the
ice
rink,
our
future
expansion
of
jail
and
so
forth.
C
A
C
C
D
J
J
C
C
A
Madam
director,
if
I,
could
the
positions
that
are
not
in
one
of
the
public
safety
departments,
for
example
the
solicitor
General's
office
when
we
set
up
the
old
loss
and
added
an
additional
100
officers
into
that
into
the
police
department,
there
was
a
need
for
additional
services
to
process
whatever
those
100
officers
did
so
the
the
solicitor
general
needed
additional
help
and
the
district
attorney
needed
additional
help.
The
9-1-1
needed
additional
help
to
take
care
of
all
of
those.
J
J
F
J
C
H
C
A
C
C
C
C
That's
at
a
hundred
and
four
thousand
again
crime
prevention
grants
are
included
in
the
budget
at
750
000..
There's
a
court
management
system,
Debt
Service
payment.
This
is
the
last
year
for
that
payment.
So
when
we
upgraded
from
our
old
mainframe
system
to
a
cloud-based
on
court
management
system,
we
financed
that
over
a
five-year
period
in
this
year's
last
year
of
that
payment.
But
there
is
the
continued
cost
for
the
annual
maintenance
fees.
C
So
also
fund
it
from
Public
Safety
old
loss
is
some
additional
Debt
Service
payments
at
200
and
almost
2.9
Million,
which
includes
the
2019
refunding
bonds.
Those
are
the
binds
that
were
refunded
in
2019,
we
had
a
significant
savings.
It
saved
us
several
million
dollars
of
the
life
of
the
Buns,
the
2020
sea
lines,
that
is,
that
was
for
the
sheriff's
administration
building,
that's
at
a
just
over
a
million
dollars
and
then
included
in
terms
of
The
Debt
Service
are
several
leases.
C
C
C
So
again,
in
terms
of
capital,
the
capital
that's
listed
here
is
just
at
2.2
million.
This
is
all
funded
from
reserves
for
the
police
department.
There
is
the
Exxon
taser
replacement
program
at
115,
000,
the
firearms
training,
simulator
42,
gtac
in-car
video
systems,
as
well
as
updates
to
the
real-time
crime
Center
at
twenty
of
thousand
dollars
for
firing
EMS.
The
allocation
is
just
over
900
000,
145
000
of
that
for
the
station
call
and
alert
system,
and
then
two
ambulances
are
included
in
the
budget.
C
For
mCP
they're
replacing
two
passenger
215
passenger
vans,
as
well
as
F-250
Crew,
Cab
trip
and
a
Pursuit
Tahoe.
These
are
all
replacement
vehicles
for
the
Sheriff's
Office.
His
allocation
is
just
at
584
000
again
for
the
axon
offices,
safety
plan,
13
fireproof
filing
cabinets,
pointer,
Shredder,
a
non-vicard
vicotta
systems
with
the
TVs.
C
The
auto
clear,
x-ray
machine
this
is
new
I,
think
for
the
new
city
hall,
building
the
iPad
Pro
105
ballistic
vests.
These
are
Replacements
I'm,
10
handguns
as
Replacements
I'm,
also
replacing
a
washer,
a
commercial
washer,
commercial
dryer
and
a
convection
oven
for
the
jail.
A
Buffalo
Chopper
is
also
at
the
jail.
It's
required
piece
of
equipment
per
our
food
contract,
and
then
they
walk
through
metal
detector,
which
is
new
that
is
included
in
the
sheriff's
capital
for
the
corner.
There's
a
you
know.
C
C
In
terms
of
Debt
Service,
5.8
million
is
funded
from
olos
infrastructure,
most
of
that
being
towards
the
2019
refunding
bonds
and
then
the
2019
series
abine,
the
800
megahertz
or
the
Motorola
map
contract,
there's
an
allocation
from
Olas
infrastructure
for
that
and
again
we're
in
year,
9
of
10,
and
then
the
court
management
system
that
service
the
last
year
of
our
debt
service
payment
for
the
court
management
system
is
800
000
that
we're
covering
from
olos
infrastructure,
Patrice
blast
discretionary
funding.
That's
included
in
that
55
million
dollar
budget
is
3.5
million.
A
C
A
C
A
A
E
A
K
Thank
you
good
morning
as
we
prepare
for
the
budget
planning
for
the
fiscal
year.
We
start
looking
at
the
plan
year
for
2024,
because
the
health
plan
year
does
run
a
calendar
year,
so
we're
planning
out
the
remainder
of
this
calendar
year
for
the
health
plan
and
the
first
six
months
of
the
next
calendar
year
for
the
health
plan.
K
So
as
part
of
that
we
as
a
self-funded
plan,
we
evaluate
the
fixed
cost
of
the
health
plan,
which
is
the
cost
that
we
pay
for
the
administration
of
the
plan
to
Blue
Cross,
Blue,
Shield
or
Anthem.
The
network
access
that
they
provide
and
the
overall
health
Management
Programs.
But
the
bigger
portion
of
the
cost
is
within
the
claims
of
the
plan,
the
medical
and
prescription
drug
claims
that
are
actually
paid
out
of
the
funding
that
ccg
forecasts
for
the
budget
year
and
for
the
plan
year.
K
So
for
2024
planning
and
the
budget
planning,
we
did
conduct
a
full
marketing
survey
for
the
health
plan
to
identify
and
confirm
if
Anthem,
Blue,
Cross
Blue
Shield
continues
to
be
the
best
solution
to
administer.
The
city's
Health
Plan
you'll
see
that
we
submitted
a
request
to
proposal
for
proposal
to
Aetna
Anthem,
Cigna,
Humana
and
United.
Healthcare
Aetna
was
the
only
proposal
that
we
received
and
you'll
see
the
others
declined
to
quote
because
their
Network
discounts
are
not
as
competitive
in
this
area
as
Anthem
and
I'll
show
you
the
exhibit
there.
K
We
also
evaluated
our
Pharmacy
benefit
manager
that
manages
our
contract
for
prescription
drugs
and
administers
the
claims
for
prescription
drugs.
We
did
move
to
Optum
last
year,
and
so
with
that
we
are
in
a
three-year
contract
until
2025,
but
we
are
able
to
complete
a
market
check
to
evaluate
if
the
contract
terms,
the
discounts
and
the
rebates
on
those
medications
continues
to
be
competitive
with
the
market.
K
So
I
mentioned
that
we
first
evaluate
the
fixed
costs
for
the
administration
of
the
plan
that
we're
paying
to
currently
Anthem
Blue
Cross
Blue
Shield
you'll
see
that
that
total
cost
is
decreasing
with
the
renewal
for
January
1st
2024.,
so
Anthem
is
decreasing.
That
cost
total
is
a
little
over
a
million
dollars
or
about
a
six
percent
decrease
of
sixty
seven
thousand
dollars.
The
only
proposal
we
received
again
was
Aetna,
so
you'll
see
they're
matching
current
Administration
current
plans.
Their
fixed
cost
is
much
discounted
from
anthem
at
about
a
546
savings.
K
But
again
this
is
the
smallest
portion
of
our
total
funding
of
the
health
plan,
the
largest
portion
of
our
total
budget
being
within
the
claims.
So
how
we
evaluate
the
claims
cost
within
different
carriers
in
their
network
is
we
do
a
repricing
analysis?
We
take
the
last
12
months
of
claim
on
your
health
plan
from
all
employees,
dependents,
retirees
and
we
reprice
them
within
the
other
networks
that
are
available
to
determine
who
has
the
better
discounts
for
the
exact
same
providers
the
same
claims.
K
So
when
we
run
that
analysis,
the
last
12
months
of
claims
Anthem
has
generated
on
average
of
58.4
percent
discount
on
submitted
charges.
The
average
discount
is
58.4
percent
of
paid
claims.
So
you'll
see
that
bottom
line.
That
means
that
our
estimated
claims
cost
was
about
17.7
million
after
discounted
claims,
where
the
total
submitted
claims
was
the
42
million.
When
we
compare
that
to
Aetna's
Network
their
average
discount
for
the
same
claims,
same
providers
is
54.5
percent.
K
So
the
difference
there
would
mean
total
claims
of
19.6
percent
a
difference
of
1.9
percent
more
in
paid
claim
games,
because
their
discounts
are
not
as
high
as
anthems.
Cigna
did
not
quote
the
fixed
cost
after
evaluating
their
Network
discount,
but
they
did
give
us
that
comparison,
their
average
discount
would
be
52.6
percent,
so
an
increase
in
claims
of
almost
3.3
million,
so
definitely
a
value
there.
K
With
the
pharmacy
benefit
manager
solution,
we
did
conduct
that
market
check
so
same
type
of
analysis
that
we
do
where
we
run
the
same
prescriptions
through
these
different
Pharmacy
benefit
manager,
agreements
and
identify.
Is
there
a
more
competitive
solution
there
in
our
Pharmacy
Consulting
team?
Does
that
so
with
that?
We
were
able
to
identify
that
the
market
was
yielding
about
328
thousand
dollars
more
in
prescription
drug
rebates,
which
is
currently
about
1.7
million
dollars.
K
Coming
back
into
the
plan,
where
we're
able
to
capture
those
rebates
from
manufacturer
brand
name
drugs
and
put
that
funding
back
into
the
plan
so
with
about
328
thousand
dollars
more,
we
are
able
to
take
advantage
of
that
with
our
current
PBM.
No
change
to
our
plan,
design
to
our
Pharmacy
benefit
administrator
and
take
take
advantage
of
about
6.5
percent
savings
on
our
prescription.
Drugs
through
that
Network
pricing,
recheck.
K
Overall
medical
inflation
and
aging
populations
needing
more
care,
so
ccg
is
below
National
Trends
in
your
projected
cost,
at
about
6.5
million
dollars
in
the
city's
expense
towards
the
active
and
pre-65
retiree
Health
Care
coverage
for
the
Medicare
Advantage
plan
for
those
post,
60,
E5
or
Medicare
eligible
retirees
were
projecting
about
a
five
percent
increase
there
as
well.
That
is
a
fully
insured
plan,
so
it
does
have
flat
premiums
so
that
total
contribution
a
little
under
300
000
the
cost
for
the
EAP
plan.
K
The
employee
assistance
Consulting
plan
is
staying
the
same
at
ninety
thousand
dollars
for
the
year.
We
do
have
additional
Wellness
incentives
for
participation
in
the
Wellness
Plan
at
forty
five
thousand
dollars.
That
is
staying
the
same,
so
total
projected
cost
for
the
fiscal
year.
24
is
16
million
980
980
508
for
the
city's
contribution.
That
does
take
into
account
a
nine
percent
increase
in
employee
contributions
if
they
choose
not
to
participate
in
the
wellness
program.
The
wellness
program
means
that
you
receive
a
health
risk
assessment.
K
A
biometric
screening
I
mean
and
you
participate
in
coaching
if
you're,
moderate
or
high
risk
based
off
of
your
health
assessment.
The
goal
there
is
for
early
identity,
education
of
risk
factors
and
providing
them
with
the
resources
and
coaching
to
manage
those
lifestyle
related
conditions
to
improve
their
health
and
manage
long-term
chronic
conditions.
K
The
next
slide
is
just
a
comparison
of
the
increase
for
those
that
do
not
participate
in
the
Wellness
Plan.
So
if
an
employee
chooses
to
participate
in
Wellness,
there
is
no
cost
increase
for
2024.
If
they
do
not
participate
in
Wellness
there
is
a
nine
percent
increase
and
you'll
see
highlighted
there.
Those
are
the
total
monthly
dollar
amounts
for
those
that
do
not
participate
in
Wellness.
That
is
now
a
22
percent
differential
between
the
wellness
cost
and
the
non-wellness
cost
really
go
there
to
get
people
engaged
increase.
K
And
as
we
evaluate
the
impact
to
the
members
Health
by
participating
in
the
wellness
program,
we
compare
those
that
are
engaged
within
the
Health
and
Wellness
Center
participating
in
the
program
costs
overall
about
10
percent,
less
on
the
health
plan
and
their
claims,
expense
and
utilization
than
a
member.
That's
not
engaged.
So
this
is
where
we
see
a
return
on
investment
and
why
we
continue
to
educate
and
promote
the
wellness
program
and
participation.
K
You'll
see
right
now
we
have
a
total
of
about
800
employees
that
are
actively
engaged
in
going
to
the
Health
and
Wellness
Center
and
about
seven,
almost
1700
that
are
not
engaged
with
active
care
and
what
that
means
to
the
health
of
the
members.
You'll
see
we
had
198
patients
that
improved
their
A1C,
so
a
total
of
87
points
lost
so
improving
the
health
of
those
that
are
pre-diabetic
or
diabetic
and
improving
their
potential
risk.
K
43
pre-diabetic
participants
experience
a
five
percent
weight
loss,
so
that's
huge
in
try
and
preventing
them
from
moving
to
a
full
diabetic,
diagnosis.
216
participants
reduced
their
systolic
blood
pressure.
74
participants
reduced
their
weight
by
eight
percent.
So
as
we
look
at
that
on
the
impact
of
their
overall
health
for
their
blood
pressure,
their
A1C
levels,
cholesterol,
but
also
their
mental
health
and
their
physical
activity.
K
So
when
we
look
at
a
total
of
6377
pounds,
loss,
1260,
inches
lost
and
the
impact
that
that
also
has
on
their
musculoskeletal
health
and
the
the
pressure
that's
on
their
joints.
So
we
see
Improvement
in
cost
Improvement
in
the
health
of
the
population,
which
benefits
both
the
employees
and
the
health
plan.
A
H
Good
morning,
Council,
the
only
point
that
I
would
add
is
that
we
always
make
sure
that
the
employee
benefits
committee
they
review.
This,
have
an
opportunity
to
ask
questions,
because
it's
the
employee
benefits
committee
that
we're
relying
on
them
to
go
back
to
their
departments,
talk
to
their
employees
field,
any
questions
that
they
might
have.
So
we've
talked
with
them
about,
and
we've
gotten
very
positive
feedback
from
our
employee
benefits
committee.
That's
all
that
I
would
add.
C
L
A
A
L
So
for
the
funding
sources
for
transportation
and
storm
water,
excluding
sploss
I'll
I'll
cover
that
later
for
transportation,
6.7
million
there
isn't,
as
Finance
director
Angelica
Alexander
stated,
there's
no
funding
from
the
paving
fund
for
transportation
for
CIP,
but
there
is
1.2
million
for
a
lost
infrastructure.
2
million
is
estimated
as
our
annual
elmig
calculation
we'll
receive
that
local
maintenance
grant
program
from
GDOT.
There
is
a
10
match
for
that,
and
it
ranges
anywhere
from
2
million
to
2.5
million
it's
formula
based
from
GDOT,
and
so
once
we
receive
that.
L
So
I'll
go
through
transportation
to
let
you
know
what
the
plan
is
going
into
fy24
out
of
the
6.7
million.
These
are
the
recommended
projects
that
we're
looking
at
to
fund
resurfacing
is
2
million
two
hundred
and
sixty
thousand.
We
continue
to
advance
our
resurfacing
program,
there's
also
an
allocation
from
splost
as
well,
but
I'll
go
through
that
in
just
a
minute.
We
also
are
recommending
Gateway
signage.
L
This
is
a
project
that
the
city
manager
has
been
requesting
for
several
years
so
that
we
have
an
entrance
sign
in
on
our
major
corridors,
we're
estimating
at
500
000.
This
might
not
get
every
Corridor,
but
we
think
it's
important
to
show
the
entrances
into
Columbus
and
recognize
the
city
of
Columbus
with
some
type
of
Gateway
signage
and.
B
D
H
B
B
That's
right,
but
but
some
of
the
city's
got
a
nice
signs
and
and
Albany
just
the
one
that
I
just
saw
on
Friday
coming
back
in
from
from
Tifton,
and
we
did
have
Robert
Sheraton
at
Metra
when
he
was
an
intern
in
my
office
to
do
a
study.
And
then
it
was
picked
up
by
Deputy
city
manager,
Hodge
and
and
planning,
and
we're
just
trying
to
bring
that
forward.
That
we
can
welcome
people
to
our
city
and
so
when
to
just
make
you
aware
of
exactly
what
that
is.
L
And
so
the
other
projects
that
we're
looking
at,
we
did
a
study
and
we've
come
back
to
council
and
presented
the
results
of
that
study
for
8th
Street,
13th,
Street
and
17th
Avenue,
so
we're
recommending
putting
about
500
000
into
each
one
of
those
projects.
This
would
get
design
completed
and
it
would
also
get
us
started
on
some
improvements
on
each
of
those
three
corridors.
I
will
tell
you
that
the
estimate
for
what
was
recommended
by
the
consultant
through
those
studies,
each
of
these
projects
is
between
four
and
five
million.
L
So
obviously
we
can't
do
a
lot
with
five
hundred
thousand,
but
we
wanted
to
get
at
least
the
design
completed
and
maybe
one
intersection
completed,
especially
on
8th
Street.
We
hear
a
lot
of
complaints
from
the
historic
district,
so
that's
one
of
the
the
streets
we
want
to
maybe
make
at
least
one
intersection
Improvement
next
year
and
then
we'll
continue
to
budget
for
those
improvements
on
13th,
Street
and
17th
Avenue
as
well.
I
Thank
you.
If
you're
going
up
to
Atlanta-
and
you
see
Noonan,
we
you
know
they
have
Noonan
across
the
entry
Bridge
I'd
like
us
to
look
into
that,
because
you
know
the
cost
of
that.
Instead
of
having
several
Gateway
signages,
you
know
have
one
where
the
majority
of
of
people
are
coming
into
our
town
on
one
of
those
bridges
and
see
how
much
that
costs.
Okay,.
L
L
The
next
project
we're
looking
at
is
to
provide
a
sidewalk,
Trail
network
connectivity
study.
This
would
be
funded
through
our
federal
funds
that
we
get
through
the
mpo.
There
is
a
20
match,
but
what
we
want
to
do
is
look
at
our
sidewalk
and
Trail
network
with
all
of
our
T
sploss
projects.
We
are
providing
sidewalk
and
Trail
connectivity,
but
there's
going
to
be
missing
pieces,
and
so
we
want
to
do
a
full
city-wide
assessment
of
our
sidewalks
and
our
Trails.
What
pieces
need
to
be
connected?
L
L
We
have
had
many
conversations
about
the
traffic
that
surrounds
all
of
our
schools,
and
so
we
want
to
bring
in
a
consultant
again
through
our
federal
funds,
through
the
MPS
o,
with
a
20
match,
to
look
at
all
of
those
schools
and
to
provide
recommendations
on
how
to
improve
traffic
at
drop
off
and
pickup
times
either
and
working
with
the
school
district.
Obviously
there'll
be
a
partner
in
this.
J
J
L
Want
to
look
at
all
of
the
schools,
we
hear
complaints
throughout
the
city
about
the
traffic
issues
and
the
impact
that
schools
have
at
particular
times
of
the
day,
and
what
can
we
do
to
help
alleviate
some
of
that
and
then
the
the
last
study
that
we
want
to
look
at
is
Edgewood
Road.
This
would
be
forty
thousand
dollars
again.
L
This
is
to
look
at
the
traffic
and
the
issues
of
traffic
and
the
impact
on
Edgewood
Road
and
that's
a
forty
thousand
dollar
local
match,
and
we
would
utilize
federal
funds
through
the
mpo
for
the
total
cost
of
that
and
then
again
elmig,
which
is
estimated
at
2
million.
Once
we
get
that
official
number
back,
typically
in
October
that
will
come
back
to
council
and
we'll
make
a
recommendation
on
how
to
utilize
funds
moving
forward
for
storm
water,
we're
putting
the
3
million
in
pipe
Rehabilitation.
L
L
Yeah
and
for
this
floss
the
pay
as
you
go
portion,
as
you
know,
we're
estimating
about
43.4
million
in
floss,
The
Debt
Service
for
the
200
million
comes
off
the
top,
and
so
what's
left
is
the
20
million
727
for
the
pay.
As
you
go
projects,
this
is
just
a
reminder
of
the
total
400
million
and
the
project
categories
for
each
one
of
those
areas
and
so
for
f
y.
L
Yes,
ma'am
and
I
can
go
through
these.
The
judicial
Center
just
as
a
reminder:
200
million
Parks
and
Recreation
48
million
Public
Safety
44
million
Transportation
25
million
storm
water,
20
million
of
the
golf
courses,
5
million
heavy
equipment
and
vehicles,
14
million
Information
Technology
5
million
Trade
Center
5
million
Civic
Center
5
million
and
economic
development.
9
million.
L
So
for
year,
two
Transportation
1.5
million
out
of
the
25
and
I've
tried
to
include
just
as
a
reminder
what
was
budgeted
in
year,
one
it
was
1.5
and
this
would
be
solely
dedicated
to
the
resurfacing
program
and
storm
water.
We
allocated
2.7
last
year.
There
is
not
an
allocation
in
this
year's
budget
Parks
and
Recreation
3.5
million.
We
budgeted
16.4
million
in
year,
one
which
was
for
the
swimming
pools
and
two
of
the
splash
pads.
L
So
in
fy24
the
recommendation
is
for
pickleball
at
Cooper
Creek
at
1.5
million
and
then
2
million
for
Carver
Park,
and
this
is
the
initial
allocation
for
Carver
Park.
The
balance
of
the
Carver
Park
allocation
would
then
be
in
year
three.
So
this
will
get
us
started
as
we
move
through
this
fiscal
year
and
then
the
balance
will
be
in
the
next
fiscal
year.
E
E
L
This
floss
we
indicated
that
we
would
install
pickleball
courts
at
Cooper
Creek,
which
is
the
recommendation
from
The
Parks
and
Recreation
Department,
because
they
can
use
existing
staff
to
also
oversee
the
operation
of
the
pickleball
courts.
We
have
been
in
discussion
for
quite
a
while
with
the
pickleball
Association
and
they're,
looking
at
doing
Capital
campaign
for
pickleball
courts,
not
that
they
won't
utilize,
the
ones
at
Cooper
Creek,
but
they
have
been
looking
at
alternate
locations
for
another
complex.
F
L
E
B
B
D
G
I've
received
the
same
communication.
I
think
the
bottom
line
is
that
from
what
would
appeal
to
this
group
is.
This
has
become
an
incredible
economic
driver
throughout
the
country
and
cities.
All
across
Georgia
are
really
putting
significant
resources
into
pickleball,
because
it's
bringing
in
tournaments
with
you
know
just
tons
of
players,
so
I
think
it
becomes
a
question.
G
We
did
make
the
commitment
it's
in
this
floss,
so
this
money
is
going
to
have
to
stay
at
Cooper
Creek
to
leverage
that
90
000
donation
from
a
private,
individual,
but
I
do
think
we
need
to
pursue
a
location,
but
the
challenge
is
there's
about
three
different
subsets
in
the
pickleball
community
and
and
they
kind
of
have
different
ideas
of
where
the
ideal
spot
would
be
so.
I
applaud
the
city
manager
on
trying
to
bring
them
and
kind
of
coalesce
around
one
location
and
then
give
this
group
an
opportunity
to
give
this
this.
J
In
reference
to
Carver
Park
with
the
two
million
dollars,
I
am
doing
a
Town
Hall,
specifically
for
parks
and
rec,
and
what
I
would
like
to
see
is
a
breakdown
for
that
two
million
dollars
in
reference
to
what
projects
are
included
in
that
for
this
next
fiscal
year,
like
what
I
heard
you
say
late,
what
else
you
know
what's
going
on
I
know
it
was
some
things
that
was
proposed.
I
think
it
was
something
in
reference
to
a
I'm
trying
to
think
of
what
those
things
are.
The
little
water.
D
J
L
So
that
has
not
been
decided.
There
is
a
consultant
working
kind
of
on
a
master
plan,
an
evaluation
and
assessment
of
Carver,
Park
and
they'll
come
back
with
recommendations
and
estimated
costs,
and
then
Parks
and
Rec
will
be
able
to
make
a
recommendation
as
to
which
ones
we
want
to
do
this
year
and
which
ones
we'll
carry
into
next
year.
L
My
expectation
is
that
by
the
time
we
get
to
the
RFP
and
and
select
a
vendor
to
make
those
improvements
will
be
able
to
start
this
2
million
and
then
finish
up
next
fiscal
year
with
the
remainder
but
I,
don't
think
they
have
decided
and
made
a
recommendation
as
to
all
of
the
improvements.
And
what
can
we
afford
with
the
funding
allocated
in
sploss?
But
that
will
come
back
to
council
for
consideration.
H
L
L
They
are
going
through
a
master
plan
at
Bull
Creek
and
so
we're
trying
to
wait
for
the
Master
Plan
before
we
get
started
to
make
sure
that
we're
in
sync,
with
the
master
plan
on
the
clubhouse
replacement.
Yes,
ma'am
they're
also
evaluating
the
possibility
of
adding
another
nine
holes
at
Oxbow
Creek
and
what
that
could
look
like.
So
there
is
an
RFP
out
and
the
vendor
has
not
been
selected
yet
to
look
at
those
two
golf
courses
and
the
opportunities
for
them.
L
An
I.T
allocation
500
000
last
year
was
500
000
as
well.
This
is
just
for
computer
replacement
servers,
switches
for
the
I.T
Department
Economic
Development
500
000.
Last
year,
almost
five
hundred
thousand
the
Civic
Center
1.5
million
last
year
was
2.5
million,
and
this
is
for
renovations,
HVAC
system,
the
scoreboard,
the
sound
system
upgrades
at
the
Civic
Center
Public
Safety
facilities,
5.8
million.
At
the
first
year
we
budgeted
500
000.
This
would
be
the
construction
cost
for
fire
station
number.
Five
that
is
moving
forward.
L
A
vendor
has
been
selected,
Station
8
upgrades
350
000.
This
is
the
design
for
those
upgrades
and
then
the
following
fiscal
year
will
come
forward
with
the
construction
costs
and
then
beginning
the
public
safety
renovation.
This
is
for
the
cooling
towers
at
one
million
dollars,
Public
Safety
vehicles
and
Equipment
2.1
million.
This
is
allocated
between
police
sheriff
and
the
fire
department
at
700
000.
Each.
The
police
department
has
various
equipment
to
include
drone
night
vision,
tactical
equipment,
ballistic
plates
ballistic
Shields
ballistic
helmets
speeds
check
signs.
L
Heavy
equipment,
one
million
dollars-
this
is
public
works
and
Parks
and
Recreation.
Those
items
are
listed,
specifically:
533
974
for
Public
Works,
six
service
trucks
with
body,
a
mini
excavator,
a
Ditch
Witch,
forklift
and
articulating
lift,
and
for
Parks
and
Recreation
493
thousand
twenty
six
dollars
grab
all
trash
truck,
Ford
Explorer,
two
15
passenger
vans
and
three
eight
passenger
vans.
A
A
M
M
Well,
let
me
just
say
thank
you
for
for
the
support
that
you've,
always
given
the
Sheriff's,
Office
and
other
agency
of
the
public
safety
agencies,
but
I
wanted
to
bring
some
things
to
your
attention
regarding
the
budget
to
see
if
I
could
to
see.
If
the
council
would
increase
my
budget
in
these
three
following
areas:
I'm
asking
for
an
increase
of
about
ninety
thousand
dollars
in
my
training
budget
for
many
years,
we've
had
the
same
training
budget.
M
We
are
working
on
a
lot
of
Specialties
within
the
Sheriff's
Office
and
one
of
those
Specialties
that
we
focus
on
is
gains
and
based
on
my
current
budget
right
now
that
we
are
trying
to
send
half
of
our
investigative
unit
to
some
of
the
best
training
that
they
have
as
Force
games.
The
national
gang
Association

offer
30
different
certifications
and
they're
all
critical
in
what
we
do.

Right
and
Mr
city
manager,
I
I,
believe
that
the
counselors
know
that
if
they
add
90
000,
we
have
to
find
ninety
thousand
somewhere
to
do
that.
At
this
point,
however,
councilor
Huff
has
recommended
that
we,
the
first
item
on
our
ad
Elite
list,
be
to
add
this
90
000,
and
we
will
come
back
to
see
where,
if,
if
that
is
approved,
where
that
would
be,
we
will
not
deal
with
this
item.
However
Sheriff
until
our
May
16th
meeting
when
we
deal
with
the
entire
ad
delete
list.
Yes,
ma'am,
okay,.
A
E
I
I
just
want
to
offer
for
council's
consideration.
We
we
could
allow
the
sheriff
to
utilize
what
he
has
budgeted
for
travel
and
training
through
up
until
mid-year
budget
adjustment,
and
then
we
could
see
how
the
budget
flows
and
what
we
could
do
at
that
point.
So
I
just
wanted
to
mention
that,
for
your
consideration,
I.
A
M
To
thank
you.
The
second
one
is
last
year
the
jury
manager
increased
our
bailiff
paid
by
five
dollars
an
hour.
I
do
I
I
have
nothing
to
do
with
that
by
law.
The
jury
manager,
the
D.A
and
the
judge
agrees
to
the
bailiff
pay
once
the
jury
manager
sends
that
up
to
the
D.A,
the
D.A
will
send
that
over
to
the
judge
and
the
judge
signs
off
on
that,
and
it
becomes
an
order.
So
they've
increased
the
pay
by
five
dollars
an
hour.
M
We
still
have
the
same
bailiff
budget
that
we
had
in
the
previous
year
the
what
we're
going
to
struggle
with
that
we
still
have
to
maintain
Bayless
in
the
government
center.
Now
we
have
a
new
city
hall
building,
that's
coming
open
that
we
will
have
to
put
Bayless
in.
We
have
the
new
admin
building
for
the
sheriff's
office
that
we
will
have
to
put
bailiffs
in
if
we
utilize
the
budget
that
we
have
right
now
and
have
to
call
them
extra
bailiffs
to
spread
them
out
to
cover
these
three
buildings.
M
C
A
H
A
H
C
So
the
bail
the
finding
for
the
bailiffs
is
in
the
general
fund,
so
we
need
to
be
a
general
fund
source,
as
opposed
to
Olaf.
I'm.
Sorry
say
that
again,
the
bailiffs
the
funding
for
the
bailiffs
they're
paid
out
of
the
general
fund,
so
it
would
need
to
be
a
general
fund
offset
as
opposed
to
the
Olaf.
E
A

Anything
else
for
the
sheriff
other
than
to
say
thank
you
so
much
for
what
you
and
your
officers
do.
It's
comforting
to
know
that
we
have
the
the
caliber
of
staff
that
we
have
in
the
Sheriff's
Office,
and
a
lot
of
that
is
directly
attributed
to
you.
So
thank
you
so
much
for
what
you
do.
Thank
you.
Man.
