City Finance Budget Wrap-up
A
A
It's
very
thorough.
Thank
you
for
that.
The
other
thing,
I
noticed,
is
a
lot
of
the
things
we
were
gonna
discuss.
We
have
actually
scheduled
to
have
detailed
discussions
at
either
Finance
Committee
or
the
Public
Works
Committee,
and
so
we
can-
and
that
is
that
information
is
in
the
memo
dated
May
4th.
So
thank
you
for
that.
Miss
McCoy.
So
with
that
is
there
a
memo
to
approve
the
agenda.
I
mean
a
motion
to
approve
the
agenda.
A
B
B
B
First,
let
me
back
up.
You
have
this
packet
with
a
FTE
count
and
then
a
line
item
by
line
item,
and
so
the
biggest
thing
non
department
does
is.
It
receives
almost
all
of
the
city's
revenue,
non
enterprise
fund
revenues,
property
tax
sales,
tax,
lodgers,
tax
bees,
it's
just
the
general
source
of
where
we
receive
our
revenue,
it's
not
attributable
to
any
department,
division
or
other
business
unit,
it's
just
non-departmental
and
from
that
so
in
the
lodgers
tax,
you'll
see
and
I'm
on
page
one
of
the
transfers.
B
You
know
these
are
transfers
of
the
lodgers
tax
out
to
various
other
funds.
You
know
like
marketing,
lodgers
tax,
fifty
percent
general
fund,
Convention,
Centre,
Convention,
Center
debt.
You
know
the
three
million
just
you
know,
for
instance,
that
goes
up
by
three
hundred
and
thirty,
seven
thousand
seven
hundred
and
seventeen
dollars.
B
Then
you
can
see
down
in
here
in
the
municipal
GRT
there's
a
like
ride.
Finders
is
the
twenty
two
thousand
eight
hundred
and
eighty
two
dollars.
So
there's
it's
just
really
transferring
these
special
revenues
out
to
other
departments.
That's
one
of
the
largest
aspects
of
non-departmental,
the
other
big
part
of
non-departmental
is
debt
service,
and
this
is
all
the
debt
service
that
is,
for
our
GRT,
both
senior
lien
and
subordinate
lien
GRT
debt.
It's
transferred,
you
know
it's
received
into
the
non-departmental
area
and
then
transferred
out
to
the
various
debt
service
funds.
B
Suami
did
include
their
budget
in
this.
It's
approximately,
you
know
nine
point,
one
nine
point,
two
million
and
then
BDD
did
not
submit
a
budget.
These
are
both
were
fiscal
agent
for
BDD
and
I'm,
not
exactly
and
I,
think
we're
also
fiscal
agent
for
Slama.
So
that's
why
they
support
submit
their
budgets
to
us,
but
it's.
B
B
Typically,
those
are
folks
in
public
works
that
are
in
the
engineering
and
really
driven
just
for
capital.
These
are
our
engineers,
designers,
program
managers
and
that
and
so
again
there
are
revenue
sources,
they're,
really
driven
by
capital
and
funded
out
of
the
half
percent
GRT
31
30
102,
and
so
again,
that's
where
they're.
A
C
B
Bd
DS
budget
is
a
proc
or
last
year's
budget
was
9.8
million.
It's
and
it's
not
in
there
and
there's.
Also
the
20
last
year
had
the
20
million
dollars
of
senior
lien
grd
bond
that
was
received
into
the
non-departmental
and
then
transferred
out
to
the
projects.
All
right.
So
that's
you
know.
30
million.
C
B
E
Chair
one
other
clarification
goes
so
Brad,
so
if
the
decrease,
let
me
just
parrot
this
back
to
you.
The
decrease
in
this
non-departmental
is
because
BDD
was
included
last
year
in
in
the
figures,
and
it
is
not,
and
then
you
said,
30
million
so
I
wasn't
sure
what
you
were
referring
to
post
of
senior
liens
were
twenty
right
or
is
that
with
the
debt
service?
Well,.
B
D
Mr.
chairman,
moving
on
to
property
tax,
the
April
I'm,
sorry,
the
Mays
first
packet
that
you
have
in
front
of
you
that
was
distributed
last
week-
item
number
six
contains
a
memo
from
our
treasurer.
The
two-page
memo
reviewing
a
property
attack,
forecast
and
property
tax
trends.
There
is
what
two
things
that
I
want
to
point
out
before.
Cristina
gives
us
an
overview
that
you
have
in
front
of
you.
D
This
is
the
first
year
that
the
city
has
performed
revenue
forecasting
both
Christine
at
Micki's,
and
myself
have
experience
in
revenue
forecasting
for
other
organizations
and
this
similar
to
the
deep
dive
that
we
have
performs
with
each
department.
We
are
also
performing
a
deep
dive
into
revenue.
I.
D
Think
many
of
you
have
brought
to
our
attention
that
revenue
some
revenue
sources
are
under
collected
that
we
are
leaving
revenue
on
the
table,
so
that
is
part
of
what
we
will
also
be
reviewing
and
FY
20
is
the
sources
that
are
that
we
are
where
we
are
not
collecting
as
much
revenue
as
we
need
to
in
the
city.
In
addition
to
focus
on
our
revenue,
we
are
doing
quarterly
revenue
projections.
D
This
is
a
point
in
time,
just
as
the
revenue
estimates
for
last
year's
budget
were
a
point
in
time
estimate
and
we
can
plan
to
continue
to
bring
you
quarterly
update
at
the
Finance
Committee,
with
revision,
if
necessary,
either
up
or
down
as
as
the
economy
as
we
see
how
the
economy
also
rolls
out
over
the
next
year.
So
with
that,
as
Deena
is
prepared
to
walk
you
through
the
two-page
memo
and
highlight
some
of
the
points
and
her
great
job
at
forecasting.
F
F
F
Zero
in
on
the
revenues
that
were
receiving
and
what
we
may
anticipate
in
the
coming
fiscal
year
for
next
year,
as
Mary
pointed
out,
revenue
projections
are
a
point
in
time.
They
are
forecast
and
they're.
Also
an
estimate
they're
not
written
in
stone,
they're,
not
hard
and
fast
numbers.
It's
based
on
historical
data
that
we
observe,
and
then
we
anticipate
or
in
some
instances
do
not.
F
In
particular,
property
tax
is
comprised
of
revenue
associated
from
new
construction,
the
maintenance
of
property
and
the
market,
value
of
commercial
and
residential
properties
within
the
city.
Typically,
property
tax
revenues
generated
about
20%,
commercial
and
80
percent
residential
and
the
changes
in
property
valuation
may
occur
when
ownership
transitions
to
a
new
owner.
F
F
Property
taxes
generated
primarily
from
the
assessed
property
value
and
the
sales
of
homes
and
property
within
the
city,
and
the
payments
are
typically
cyclical
due
to
remittance
deadlines
that
are
set
by
the
county
twice
a
year
over
the
course
of
FY
15
through
FY
18.
Historically,
we
observed
that
property
tax
receipts
increased
nearly
20
percent,
and
this
is
an
exceedingly
strong
case.
F
We
actually
outpaced
a
lot
of
the
other
metro
areas
across
the
country
and
we
were
the
official
recipients
of
these
revenue
increases
property
tax
is
estimated
to
the
revenue
itself
is
estimated
to
continue
on
its
upward
trend
and
for
FY
18
in
particular.
Revenue
received
was
eleven
point,
four
million,
which
made
up
nine
approximately
nine
point.
F
The
fy2014
forward
of
13
point:
1
million
continues.
The
projected
growth
trend
observed
over
the
last
4
fiscal
years
and
then
doubling
that
growth
observed
to
the
current
fiscal
year.
This
strength
is
supported
not
only
due
to
various
economic
indicators
and
unique
traits
that
we
see
in
moving
to
Santa,
Fe
and
boomerang
generation
grew
up
here,
where
educated
gain,
work,
experience
and
another
municipality
and
decided
to
come
on
back
to
Santa
Fe.
That
is
contributing
to
it.
F
In
addition
to
new
growth,
which
is
termed
construction
on
land,
that's
already
been
valued,
so
it
increases
the
value
overall
and
within
Santa
Fe.
There
are
various
new
construction
projects
that
are
anticipated
to
come
on
to
the
tax
rolls
in
FY
22.
The
anticipated
growth
and
projected
increase
the
record
level
home
sales.
That
we've
also
observed
over
the
last
two
fiscal
years
have
garnered
a
spike
in
property
tax
distribution
to
the
county
and
to
the
city.
F
C
C
You
know
the
budget
for
this
year
is
so
understated
and
given
the
12
million
dollars
that
it
really
were
not
looking
at
in
actuality,
30
I
mean,
depending
you
know,
it's
it's
I
think
it's
30
percent
increase
in
all
funds
and
a
37
percent
increase
in
the
general
fund,
property
taxes,
so
I
didn't
I
didn't,
but
I
responded
to
Ms
McCoy.
You
probably
saw
it
over
the
weekend
where
I
realized
that
so
this
is
probably
only
represents
I.
Didn't
I
didn't
do
the
math,
but
it's
actually
12
million.
C
C
You
know
I
think
that
I
did
go
on
to
say:
I
questioned
whether
all
the
apartment
projects
are
gonna
come
online
this
year
now,
but
that's
something
I've
been
talking
about
when
an
issue
of
housing
is
like.
Why
isn't
the
marketplace
getting
the
things
built
when
they
went
through
all
the
couple
of
getting
them
entitled?
So,
at
any
rate,
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
that
I
accept
the
the
projection
based
on
the
fact
that
we're
gonna
have
probably
around
twelve
million
dollars
in
actual
receipts.
Revenue
from
property
tax,
and
so
a
10%
increase.
A
You
make
sure
Thank
You
councillor,
Harris
and
I
just
want
to
add
that
I
mean
been
at
the
county
bird
as
many
years
as
I
did,
and
the
county's
budget
is
primarily
property.
Tax
I
can
tell
you
our
County
Assessor
Gus
Martinez
is
very
aggressive
when
it
comes
to
getting
new
developments
on
the
tax.
Rolls
and
I
wouldn't
be
surprised.
If
he's
already
aware
of
all
that
apartment
complexes
that
are
under
construction
and
already
planning
to
add
them
to
the
tax
rolls
I
also
like
councillor
Harris,
feel
confident
in
what
you're
projecting.
A
H
You
mr.
chair,
just
a
clarification,
thank
you
miss
Keyes
for
the
presentation.
What's
their
breakdown
again
for
property
tax
revenues
that
goes
to
the
city
to
the
county
and
I
think
there's
a
portion
of
the
state
but
also
the
school
district.
I
know:
we've
seen
those
numbers
before
but
I
couldn't
remember
the
percentages.
B
H
B
H
I
C
Done
the
math
previously
maybe
a
year
or
so
ago,
just
looking
at
my
residential
property
tax
bill
and
then
a
bill
on
some
commercial
property
that
we
own
it
is
about.
Nine
percent
on
residential
is
about
12
percent
on
commercial
yeah.
We
get
by
far
the
smallest
share,
given
County
the
school
district
from
the
Community
College
and
various
charter
schools.
A
Okay,
thank
you
so
moving
on
departmental
specific
issues
that
we
want
to
follow
up
on,
the
first
I'd
like
to
discuss
is
the
BWI
corporate
sure
program.
We
were
provided
a
memo
over
the
weekend
and
our
May
first
package.
We
have
a
memo
dated
April
30th
2019
from
the
city
attorney
regarding
the
DWI
forfeiture
program
and
when
the
city
can
stop
the
program,
how
many
vehicles
currently
have
been
impounded
and
how
money
in
the
reserve
fund
can
be
used
a
counselor
Landau.
This
was
one
of
the
issues
that
you
had
concerns
with.
Thank.
J
G
J
J
And
I
also
want
to
thank
the
chief
for
giving
up
his
Saturday
and
going
down
to
the
food
depot
and
how
many
pounds
of
potatoes
did
you
guys
read
bag
eight
thousand
pounds,
five
thousand
pound
pellets
I
thought
that
was
really
really
great
to
see
you
there.
Thank
you
for
doing
that.
I
think
that
we're
all
pretty
aware
or
that
we
have
a
general
belief
that
this
program
is
going
to
wind
down
that
the
courts
are
going
to
close
this
program
down
on
a
personal
level.
J
J
It's
just
a
tough
program.
I
I
know
that
you
know
people
have
consequences
for
their
behaviors,
but
I
think
sometimes
this
forfeiture
program
has
been
particularly
hard
on
families.
They've
dealt
with
someone
with
addiction
issues
and
had
enough
pain
that
then,
when
their
vehicle
gets
taken
away
and
they
can't
get
themselves
to
work,
I
think
it's
I
think
we're
piling
on
a
little,
particularly
when
we
haven't
gone
to
court
with
them
and
on
and
on
and
on.
But
but
you
know,
that's
just
my
opinion.
J
A
couple
of
things
I'd
like
to
know
about
trying
to
wind
this
program
down.
Mr.
McCreary
was
really
clear
on
this
that
we
need
to
bring
an
ordinance
forward
in
the
meantime,
could
could
you
put
together
chief
a
couple
of
different
scenarios
of
how
we
could
wind
this
program
down
and
get
it
closed
out?
J
Whether
we
need
to
continue
to
do
these
auctions
ourselves
or
if
we
could
go
ahead
and
hire
a
third
party
to
just
come
in
and
get
these
vehicles
and
get
them
out
of
there
and
let
them
auction
them
and
we
get
some
percent
of
it.
If
you
could
put
together
a
couple
of
scenarios
on
that
and
in
the
near
future,
that
would
be
really
helpful
to
us.
I
think
another
question
that
I
had
on
this
was:
how
can
the
money
for
this
program?
Because
how
much
do
we
have
sitting
like
half
a
million
bucks?
J
So
those
are
my
comments
on
this
I
think
that
exactly
what
we
needed
was
in
this
memo
to.
Let
us
know
that,
in
order
to
formally
close
this
down,
we
need
to
do
it
by
ordinance,
but
in
reality,
at
this
moment
in
time,
we
have
pulled
the
plug
on
this
program
and
I
think
that
the
next
reasonable
step
would
be
for
you,
chief
Padilla,
to
bring
to
us.
If
you
have
other
positions,
you
said
you
had.
J
E
K
K
E
What's
what
would
be
the
time
mr.
chair
and
Aaron
about
the
time
frame,
for
you
know
feeling
comfortable
that
we're
outside
the
window
of
when
the
court
would
take
any
action
I
mean?
Will
they
at
some
point?
They
will
at
some
point
say
we're
not
granting
cert.
So
any
sense
of
I
mean
is
that
six
months
a
couple
of
weeks
what
a
year,
what
are
we
looking
at
any
any
sense
of
that
counselor.
K
Debate
the
council
tomorrow
with
I,
would
guess
it
would
be
within
the
next
couple
months
that
will
have
either
cert
denied
or
accepted.
If
it's
accepted,
then
we
do
full
briefing
to
the
court
and
then
it's
it
will
have
no
idea
which
way
will
go
at
that
point.
But
before
it's
been
accepted,
the
likelihood
of
us
getting
a
hearing
on
the
issue.
It
is
unlikely
it's
because
most.
E
K
J
A
L
A
Thank
you,
Thank
You
chief.
We
look
forward
to
the
follow-up,
the
next
item
and
what
is
actually
the
next
page
in
our
packet
page
47
is
information
on
city,
councilor,
salaries,
councillor
Romero
work.
You
were
wondering
what
the
justification
for
that
is
during
the
legislative
session
in
2018.
The
amendment
in
there
was
an
amendment
that
increased
maximum
pay
per
class,
a
county
commissioners
from
thirty
four
thousand
five
hundred
to
thirty
nine
thousand
one
hundred
and
six.
A
According
to
our
rules,
counselor
shall
receive
compensation
for
their
services
to
the
city
in
the
amount
equal
to
the
maximum
on
an
amount
authorized
by
the
legislature
to
be
paid
for
county
commissioner,
commissioners
and
us
eight
counties.
So
the
last
increase
the
councilor
salaries
occurred
in
2006
from
29
to
34
five
and
based
on
the
increase
that
the
county
was
given
getting
an
increase
ourselves.
Quite
that
would
be
effective,
July
1st
mr.
E
A
A
L
L
I
began
to
find
that
there
are
many
things
we
do
with
regard
to
parking
that
we
don't
really
I
I
believe
have
any
cohesive
place,
which
provides
a
framework
for
why
we
do
this,
and
even
how
we
do
this,
and
so
I
am
of
the
opinion
that
the
governing
body
should
consider
directing
public
works
parking
division
to
develop
a
policy
of
some
sort,
I
call
it
a
policy
I,
don't
know
what
it
would
be
called,
but
to
develop
something
where
we
have
a
framework
for
how
we
do
business.
With
regard
to
parking.
L
It's
been
a
concern
of
mine
for
some
time.
I
I
feel
like
when
I
go
to
different
entities
to
ask
questions.
I,
don't
really
get
a
lot
of
responses
that
make
me
feel
like
it's
a
Kohi
to
plan
and
when
you
look
at
you
know
how
we
treat
parking
for
legislators,
how
we
treat
parking
for
downtown
verse,
one
section
versus
another,
or
you
know,
Guadalupe
estreet.
L
When
we
decide
how
we
treat
parking
for
hotels,
that
may
ask
we've
got
some
arrangements
there
and
and
the
light
so
I
I
don't
see
any
rhyme
or
reason
or
any
of
it.
Some
of
it
I
question
whether
we
should
be
doing
at
all
and
so
I
would
I
would
think
that
you
know
as
a
fiscal
agent,
for
everything
that
we
do,
the
monies
that
we
collect
or
don't
collect.
L
My
thought
we
ought
to
be
a
little
bit
more
contemplative
about
whether
this
is
the
right
thing.
These
are
the
right
things
to
be
doing
so
that's
my
my
thought,
I
think
if
we
don't
bring
it
up
and
see
that
there
are
some,
there
is
some
revenue
that
could
be
sliding
out
the
door
uncorrupted
which
I
consider
that
to
be
revenue,
even
though
it's
a
kind
of
a
silent
item
that
you
can't
really
put
your
finger
on.
I
really
do
believe.
L
L
There
are
members
of
the
public
who
have
contacted
me
and
questioned
if
the
parking
lot
follows
the
same
rules
as
parking
meters
ie
shutting
down
at
six,
and
some
of
them
have
received
parking
tickets
and
some
of
our
locks
not
realizing
that
we
don't
shut
down
at
six,
but
some
do
and
then
and
then
there's
the
question
of
you
unmanned
garages,
because
we
are
changing
over
and
I
understand
that
the
railyard
garage
this
last
Saturday
was
not
man.
So
there's.
G
L
What's
going
on,
what's
not
going
on,
and
how
do
we
plan
for
making
it
more
cohesive
and
I
suggest
that
we
we
take
a
real,
deep
dive
on
this
and
come
up
with
some
kind
of
policy
behind
this
so
I'll,
be
you
know
pursuing
this
further
in
some
fashion,
so
I
just
wanted
to
bring
it
up
and
I
think
it's
definitely
a
case
for
revenue.
That's
silently
walking
out
the
door.
Thank
you.
A
Anything
else
from
the
committee
regarding
parking
in
general,
okay
and
on
page
42
of
our
packet.
We
have
paid
42,
43
and
44
a
breakdown
of
training,
tuition
and
registration.
Page
42
is
the
recommended
budget
for
training,
tuition
and
tuition
on
registration,
broken
down
by
Department
and
then
page
43
and
44
are
the
different
training
topics
that
we
have
councillor
Harris.
Did
you
want
to
just
spend
a
few
minutes
on
training
and
what
your
thoughts
are
regarding?
A
C
My
thoughts
is
really
how
important
this
is.
You
know
in
the
past
budget
hearings
that
I've
participated
in,
we
really
didn't
talk
about
training
tuition.
What
I
call
in
professional
development
so
I
think
it's
important
and
it's
certainly
part
and
parcel
of
the
whole
package
that
we
provide
that
we
offer
to
our
our
staff,
whatever
they
may
be,
whomever
they
whatever
job
they
may
hold
so
I'm
glad
to
see
this
level
of
information
I
think
it's
something
that
we
need
to
kind
of
refine
a
bit
over
time.
C
Make
sure
we
understand
what
it's
about
as
well
as
in
on
occasion,
you're
looking
at
particular
programs
and
I
know
that
the
city
manager
is
very
focused
on
on
really
a
comprehensive
safety
program
through
essentially
the
new
pit
I,
don't
know,
I,
don't
know,
wouldn't
really
call
it
a
new
position.
Necessarily
it's
a
position
is
that
we've
had
that
I,
don't
think,
has
necessarily
gotten
a
lot
of
attention
and
and
I
know
that
we've
also
moved.
Let's
see
Safety's
in
I
need
to
get
this
right.
C
Safety's
in
HR
and
risk
is
in
finance
now
and
so
those
functions
and
we
think
we'll
get
a
much
higher
level
of
focus
and
just
in
programs.
Quite
frankly,
this
is
this
is
this
is
not
something
we
all
know.
This
is
not
something
you
do
one-off.
You
know
just
once
a
year
it's
it's.
These
are,
should
be
rigorous
programs,
so
I'm
glad
we're
talking
about
it.
C
G
Whoever
Thank
You
mr.
chairman,
absolute
councillor,
Harris,
drew
focusing
on
this
because
I
think
it
really
goes
to
the
next
level
of
the
budget,
and
we've
tried
to
do
right
by
our
employees
with
the
salary
increases
and
the
full
implementation
of
the
classification
and
compensation
study,
and
this
speaks
to
what
happens
after
their
employee,
then
after
they're
being
paid
I.
Remember
our
brief
orientation.
We
had
when,
when
I
joined
this
body
and
we
spent
a
morning
looking
at
the
city
budget
and
I
I,
remember
looking
at
the
pie
chart.
G
That
said
what
percentage
of
the
city
budget
is
spent
on
salaries
and
benefits,
and
what
percent
is
spent
on
training
and
professional
development
and
for
all
the
money
we
put
into
paying
people
and
more
now,
because
we
were
calling
it
a
people
first
budget,
if
we
don't
give
people
the
chance
to
develop
and
grow
on
the
job,
we're
really
undermining
the
the
workforce.
So
I
think
this
is
a
step
in
the
right
direction.
G
I
think
we
need
to
continue
it
and
I
think
we
need
to
add
other
opportunities
to
it,
so
that
we're
really
investing
in
in
our
people's
career
development
and
so
I
salute
our
HR
department
for
focusing
on
this
I
think
it.
It
may
well
have
been
something
that
you
did
in
your
day,
but
it
law
it
got
lost
in
the
shuffle
and
it
was
ignored
for
quite
a
while.
G
If
you
look
at
the
at
the
numbers
that
we
got
when
we
came
on
the
council,
it
was
just
a
tiny
sliver
of
the
city
budget,
and
now
it's
not
what
it
needs
to
be.
It
needs
more
focus,
but
I
really
think
this
is
an
indication
that
our
HR
department
gets
it
and
that
the
more
you
invest
in
people's
opportunity
for
career
growth
than
personal
development.
The
greater
the
return
on
the
investment
is
to
the
people
in
the
city
who
are
benefiting
from
their
service.
G
A
A
These
to
be
heard
by
Finance
on
June
3rd
I,
do
plan
on
meeting
with
the
chair
of
Public
Works
and
requesting
that
he
schedule
time
to
follow
up
in
here
regarding
the
Parks
and
Recreation
small
park
projects
that
may
be
in
the
pipeline.
We
need
an
update
to
the
short
term
rental
ordinance
and
then
I
would
also
ask
him
if
we
could
hear,
if
he's
ok
with
the
schedule
for
hearing
the
PNM
franchise
fees,
and
so
with
that.
J
Until
we
get
the
study
back,
that
we've
commissioned
on
short-term
rentals
I
think
that
these
two
items
get
confused
some
in
the
minds
of
the
public
and
our
constituents,
and
that
we
might
do
well
to
put
those
on
parallel
tracks
and
move
on
forward
together
so
that
we
don't
move
one
forward
and
then
a
month
and
a
half
later
work
on
the
other
one
and
say
we
should
have
done
that
and
the
other
one
so
I'm
going
to
ask
for
that.
Consideration,
I'm
just
giving
a
heads
up
on
that.
J
But
the
light
that
always
turns
on
in
my
head
is
that
someone
put
these
together
in
a
very
meaningful
purposeful
way
and
it's
an
insane
amount
more
work
than
me
sitting
there
trying
to
read
through
it,
and
this
is
by
far
the
very,
very
best
budget
presentation
that
I've
ever
sat
through
and
I'm.
Appreciative
of
you
guys
and
please
do
not
think
that
it
goes
unnoticed.
It's
really
really
been
a
a
Herculean
task
and,
and
you
rose
to
it-
and
you
got
it
done,
and
it's
been
really
understandable.
I'm
very
appreciative.
J
C
I
spoke
to
one
of
them
on
the
property
taxes,
one
of
them
was
answered
on
scheduled
for
the
land
use
fees,
but
also,
maybe
this
is
for
public
works
on
3102
on
3102,
because
I'm
asking
about
the
balances
anticipated
drawdowns
revenues
in
my
20s
really
a
public
works
issue,
the
enterprise
funds-
maybe
if
we
just
add
that
to
our
schedule
here
of
some
sort
of
review,
but
if
chair,
if
you'd
work
with
this
McCoy
on
that
I
think
would
be
good.
I'd,
be
satisfied
with
that.
C
So
I'm
satisfied
I
also
want
to
reinforce
what
councilman
Dell
has
just
said.
You
know
I,
remember
my
first
rodeo
so
to
speak.
Budget
rodeo
four
years
ago
with
there
was
no
training.
Quite
frankly,
I've
said
this
and
counselor
via
Ray
Allen
said
this
as
well.
There
was
no
training
and
we
were
looking
at
big
headlines.
The
budget
deficit,
so
we've
come
a
long
ways
in
those
four
years,
and
certainly
this
you
know:
building
the
FY
20
you're
reviewing
the
FY
2010,
really
a
very
satisfying
experience.
For
me.
C
It's
far
better
than
anything
we've
done
before
you
know
I.
You
know
I
squawked
a
little
bit
about
them
out
of
it.
Yes,
the
amount
of
information
when
we
get
it
and
so
I'm
sure
the
next
rodeo
for
FY
21
people
will
be
able
to
get
it
a
little
bit
sooner.
But
you
know
Ms
McCoy
you
and
your
staff
and
everybody
who's
worked
on.
This
have
been
very
responsive.
C
C
We
said
we
would,
and
but
that's
you
know,
there's
been
issues
around
that
and
so
I
think
we're
I
think
we're
doing
well
and
I
think
we'll
continue
to
do
even
better,
as
you
continue
to
refine
our
city
processes
and
all
the
things
we're
doing
ERP.
So
congratulations
to
you
and
the
people
who
work
with
you
and
work
for
you
so.
E
Thank
You
mr.
chair
just
a
couple
of
things:
I
I
never
really
heard
back
about
the
community
room
at
the
Chavez
Center
and
what
we
could
do
to
improve
the
acoustics
so
that
we
can
use
that
room
more
and
then
also
I
would
be
at
some
point
very
interested
in
what
we're
doing
in
terms
of
water
conservation
and
Parks
and
Rec
and
I
see
the
directors
not
here
today.
But
maybe
that's
something
that
we
can
follow
up
in
other
places
and
then
also
just
echo.
M
E
H
Thank
You
mr.
chair
I,
appreciate
the
follow
up.
I
know,
there's
a
lot
more
information,
but
all
the
packets
that
the
follow-up
questions
we
had
and
I
noticed
that
Community
Services
was
here
and
I
was
just
curious.
If
anyone
had
questions
because
they
did
come
here
early
to
join
us,
I
didn't
have
questions,
but
it
was
very
thorough.
The
explanation
of
next
steps
for
the
youth
programs
and
how
you
will
be
working
with
Parks
and
Rec
yeah,
Parks
and
Rec
Department.
So
I,
don't
know
if
there
was
any
questions.
I
guess
not.
H
I
was
just
following
up
on
some
of
the
pieces
that
we
got
to
follow
up
on
and
and
Joe
bata
had
provided
us
with
an
update
about
what
it
would
cost
to
tell
or
have
a
live
stream
of
our
other
community
or
other
committees.
So
I
was
wondering
if
there
was
a
sentiment
with
the
governing
body
to
pursue
that
and
move
forward,
or
that
was
just
an
informational
item
for
us
to
know
how
much
it
would
cost
or
if
we
were
gonna
fold
that
into
possibly
looking
at
that
into
into
this
fiscal
year.
J
H
I
guess
I'm
just
curious
because
it
is
a
piece
of
well
it's
a
budget
item
that
we'd
have
to
add,
and
it's
not
cheap,
so
just
curious.
What
anyone
thought
about
that
I'm
in
favor.
If
we
have
money
for
it,
I
think
people
want
to
know
what's
happening
in
the
committee
meetings,
but
you
did
make
some
suggestions
about
remote
access,
software
license,
etc,
but
I
don't
know
I'm
kind
of
curious
how
they
move
forward
with
that
yeah.
E
I
I
appreciated
the
information,
I
have
to
say
I'm,
not
sure,
I'm
prepared
to
make
a
motion
right
now
and
I.
Don't
know
that
we'd
know
where
the
money
is
coming
from
right,
but
I
just
think
it
is
an
interesting
conversation
starter
about
whether
this
is
something
that
would
be
valuable
to
the
public
and
I
think
it
would
be
valuable
for
us,
just
in
the
sense
of
it
would
help
generate
public
understanding
about
how
the
sausage
gets
made.
E
So
I'm
interested
in
continuing
the
conversation
I'm
also
curious,
whether
what
was
proposed
in
this
memo
I
think
we're
on
radio
and
with
that
would
would
radio
pick
that
up,
or
is
this
just
our
and
I.
Don't
have
enough
understanding
about
how
everything
works
so
I
think
definitely
more
information
that
needed
and
I
appreciate
the
information
about
just
kind
of
initial.
H
Price
tag
debate,
though,
I
just
wanted
to
play
it
because
I
think
it's
a
potential
opportunity
for
us
and
then
based
on
the
community
room
just
to
follow
up
on
that.
We
don't
have
Wi-Fi
in
there
at
least
we
didn't
for
a
while.
So
I
was
curious
with
the
improvements
of
utilizing
that
space,
how
we
can
also
have
Wi-Fi,
because
it
limits
us
when
we
have
our
own
meetings
of
the
city
there,
when
there's
no
Wi-Fi
to
be
able
to
do
presentations,
etc
and.
H
You
so
just
to
follow
up
on
the
we
had
a
very
extensive
conversation
about
lifeguard,
recruitment
and
and
just
in
general,
supporting
Parks
and
Rec
with
all
of
the
services
they
provide
and
and
the
programs
that
we
have,
how
to
to
make
sure
that
we
have
enough
staff
for
that.
It
was
brought
to
my
attention
that
there's
a
possibility
of
eliminating
a
Supervisor
position
and
I'm
wondering.
H
After
all
that
conversation
we
had
about
the
need
for
that
support
that
there's
there
was
a
potential
cut
now
for
a
Supervisor
position,
so
I
don't
think
we
have
anyone
to
be
able
to
answer
this.
So
I'm,
just
curious,
if
you
all
have
staff
or
other
stuff,
could
be
able
to
answer
that,
because
it
took
me
by
surprise
being
that
we've
kept
talking
about
short-staffed
and
then
then
the
supervisor
position
was
eliminated.
The.
M
H
You
and
I
have
other
questions,
but
I
think
I'll,
just
email
them
to
the
appropriate
staff
they're
just
more
like
outlying
questions
about
so
much
about
budget
and
number,
but
processes
and
the
way
we
the
way
we
do
business
in
the
city,
just
procedures,
so
I
will
wait
and
just
email
those
to
the
perfect
people.
Thank
you.
L
We
got,
and
it
kind
of
coincides
with
what
councilor
VLDL
just
said
in
terms
of
staffing
and
the
amount
of
workload,
but
I've
noticed
in
the
FTEs
in
the
Public
Works
Department.
They
they
went
down
and
their
total
from
fiscal
year,
19
to
just
say,
you're
20
and
there's
significant
in
my
opinion,
for
such
a
big
department
that
has
a
lot
to
do.
There
seems
to
be
some
significant
decrease
in
positions
and
I'm,
not
sure
that
I
understand
that
from
our
budget
hearings,
I,
don't
know
what
that
is.
M
M
Basically,
history
of
double
fills
across
the
city,
as
director
McCoy
said,
pretty
much
throughout
the
presentation
and
trying
to
clean
up
the
pol
across
the
city,
we're
not
intending
to
reduce
services
other
than,
of
course,
sparking
and
autumn
automating
of
the
parking
lots
we
understand,
they
have
a
huge
role
and-
and
they
don't
continue
it
up
a
huge
role
in
the
city,
so
none
of
that
should
represent
a
decrease
in
services.
That's.
D
A
L
During
these
budget
hearings,
I
see
and
I
certainly
understand
and
I'm
very
thankful
that
we
discussed
a
lot
of
very,
very
important
issues,
a
lot
of
great
programs
and-
and
it
indicates
that
our
staff
is
going
to
be
very
busy,
and
you
know
it
makes
me
proud
to
be
here
and
and
to
recognize
staff
for
all.
That's
gonna
happen
in
the
future
and
has
been
happening
so,
as
you
can
probably
tell
by
now.
That's
one
of
my
greatest
concerns
being
on
the
council.
L
L
Didn't
hear
anything
in
in
the
budget,
discussions
and
I
know
this
isn't
necessarily
maybe
the
place
to
do
it,
but
I
do
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
something
somewhere
which
provides
direction
on
keeping
the
comp
plan
up
to
date
and
so
that
we
don't
get
so
far
behind
like
we
did
and
certainly
that
it's
based
on
up-to-date
job
classifications
and
the
light.
That's
the
easiest
way
to
spend
money,
because
it's
not
such
a
whopping
amount
at
once,
I
did
notice
and
the
information
we
got
with
the
salary
schedule.
L
There's
a
few
positions
in
there.
We
no
longer
have
job
titles,
such
as
deputy
city
manager,
that's
still
in
there,
so
you
know
there's
some
tweaking
that
needs
to
happen.
I
also
would
would
like
this
to
keep
an
eye
on
position.
Control
I
know
that
miss
Salazar
is
working
diligently
to
identify
positions
and
I.
Think
a
lot
of
that
has
been
done
now.
I
think
this
going
forward.
We
need
to
keep
track
of
what
we
have
double
fills
under
bills.
L
Classified
10.
Oh,
that's,
his
thing,
I!
Don't
really
think
we
ever
discussed
how
many
temporary
employees
we
have
and
because
those
are
those
take
out
budget
and
we
need
them,
we
certainly
need
them.
The
summer
program
we
used
a
lot
of
temporaries
for
those
we
use.
Temporaries
I
undertook
a
little
bit
about
Life
Guards
in
this
summer,
so
we
do
make
great
use
of
them
and
and
in
certainly
in
in
our
summer
parks
and
rip.
L
We
we
clean
up,
begin
clean
up
and
and
all
of
that,
so
that's
a
really
important
part
of
our
budget
and
I
am
assuming
that
we
are
funding
temporaries
by
using
salary
savings.
I
really
don't
know,
but
at
one
time
the
city
had
to
let
go
of
60
temporary
positions.
You
may
recall
that,
and
the
time
we
didn't
really
know,
but
the
city
didn't
know
how
many
we
really
had
and
and
all
that,
but
a
lot
of
employees
in
those
positions
got
laid
off
like
overnight.
So
we
really
need
to
avoid
that
in
the
future.
L
L
I
certainly
want
echo
what
my
fellow
councillors
have
said.
This
staff
has
been
tremendous
and
the
questions
were
hard.
The
work
was
hard
I.
Imagine
I
can't
imagine
that
I'm
sure
you
all
didn't
have
a
weekend.
You
haven't
had
many
weekends
for
a
long
time
and
and
it's
it's
very
much
appreciated
this-
is
for
all
that's
still
needed.
There's
there's
so
much
professionalism
that
you
all
have
exhibited.
You've
had
hard
questions,
you've
stood
up
and
you
you've
just
performed
remarkably
and
it's
it's
such
an
important
thing
to
this
city.
L
J
One
very
very
small
item
just
to
put
on
the
list
into
the
future.
We
need
to
have
a
discussion
about
the
fees
from
wastewater
to
the
MRC
I
think
that
was
around
a
400
or
$600,000
issue.
So
let's
just
put
that
on
a
list,
and
maybe
we
can
talk
about
that
at
finance.
Sometimes
you
and
the
mayor,
My
Luck
I,
don't
want
to
have
a
word
before
I
make
a
motion,
but
I
am
ready
to
make
a
motion.
Okay,.
G
You
mr.
chair
I
I
really
appreciate
the
work
of
the
committee
very
thorough,
very
thoughtful,
constructive
engagement,
which
I
think
does
the
city
proud.
I
wish
this
in
the
spirit
of
transparency
and
in
the
spirit
of
in
citizen
resident
engagement,
I
really
do
wish.
We
had
the
same
kind
of
attendance
at
this
that
we
sometimes
get
at
council
hearings.
This
is
where
the
budget
gets
made.
This
is
where
the
future
gets
established
in
terms
of
programming
and
priorities.
So
it
is.
It
is
the
important
work
of
getting
ready
for
the
year
ahead.
G
It's
also
I
think
important
to
recognize
that
city
government,
particularly
under
a
new
administration
with
a
new
Charter,
is
moving
forward
one
step
at
a
time.
This
budget
is
really
the
first
one
that
I
had
the
opportunity
to
participate
fully
in
working
with
our
team
in
creating
and
it
represents
our
collective
priorities.
G
It
says
we're
gonna
put
people
first,
we're
gonna,
take
care
of
the
long
overlooked
and
two
long
deferred
investments
that
really
need
to
be
done,
and
they
start
with
investing
in
people
and
investing
in
growing
the
city's
capacity
to
do
business
effectively,
competently
and
consistently
I.
Think
the
the
ability
to
put
money
into
class
and
Comp
after
successive
studies
that
led
to
no
action
is
a
demonstration
that,
when
we
say
we're
going
to
do
something,
we
do
it
I
think.
G
Sprinkled
throughout
the
budget
are
other
specific,
targeted
investments,
and
we
really
didn't
dwell
on
those
very
much.
Perhaps
when
we
get
this
back
in
front
of
the
whole
council
as
a
meeting,
and
we
can
look
at
targeted
investments
designed
to
make
incremental
improvements.
It
goes
on
top
of
things
like
the
20
million
dollar
GRT
back
bond,
the
green
first
green
bond
issued
in
the
state's
history.
These
are
all
steps
in
the
right
direction,
but
you
don't
overcome
years
of
deferred
maintenance
in
one
budget.
G
This
is,
as
director
McCoy
said,
a
snapshot
in
time.
It
is
a
an
incremental
improvement
over
a
long
term
series
of
investments
that
we
have
to
stay
the
course
with.
We
can't
suddenly
decide
next
year
that
we
have
to
reverse
directions.
We
have
to
stay
with
these
commitments
and
continue
to
make
them
steadfastly
and
consistently
I.
Also.
G
So,
having
said
that,
I
think
there
are
some
things
that
we
should
flag
as
coming
attractions,
if
you,
if
you
drive
on
I-25,
occasionally
you'll
see
that
says,
watch
this
space
and
I
think
that's
what
we're
saying
here
with
this
budget,
that
there
are
more
things
to
be
done.
I
think
the
very
aggressive
and
constructive
agenda
that
you've
laid
out
for
presentations
speaks
to
continuing
this
process
of
imagining
and
investigating
possibilities
going
forward,
and
some
of
them
are
programmatic.
Frankly,
some
of
them
in
the
future.
As
we
look
at
the
city
government
will
be
structural.
G
We
we
had
a.
We
have
a
very
interesting
vestigial
remain
of
a
city
government
in
some
respect.
If
you
think
of
the
committee
structure
we
take
for
granted,
we
have
a
Finance
Committee,
which
does
tremendous
work.
We
have
a
public
utilities
and
a
public
works
committee.
But
increasingly,
if
you
track
the
conversations
of
this
body
over
the
course
of
the
finance
hearings,
people
kept
asking
questions
about
our
delivery
of
services
to
people
human
services,
community
services.
We
have
no
committee
that
looks
at
community
services
to
kids
to
seniors.
G
We
really
don't
have
a
place
as
a
committee
structure,
to
look
at
something
like
a
commitment
to
our
young
people
that
anyone
who
wants
a
mentor
in
this
city
should
get
one
there's
no
place
to
take
that
plan
other
than
Public
Works
Public
Utilities,
our
finance
and
I.
Think
structurally,
that's
a
flaw
in
our
system.
I
think.
G
Another
flaw
in
our
system
has
to
do
with
the
questions
we've
raised
about
the
rail
yard
and
there'll
be
more
questions
raised,
but
we
have
a
land-use
department
that
does
planning
we
don't
have
a
Redevelopment
Authority
or
a
development
arm
that
looks
at
implementing
housing,
other
development
opportunities
for
the
city
to
own
its
own
development
activities.
We've
outsourced
those
to
independent
bodies
that
really
don't
report
back
to
the
city.
I
think
this
is
the
first
time
in
some
time
that
the
finances
of
the
railyard
Commission
were
brought
in
front
of
this
body.
G
We
should
be
not
only
looking
at
that,
but
as
our
Finance
Committee,
our
finance
department,
we'll
be
doing
our
other
major
assets
that
the
city
owns
in
its
portfolio.
So
there's
more
work
to
be
done,
but
this
is
a,
as
my
colleagues
have
said,
this
is
a
tremendous
achievement.
This
is
a
major
step
forward
in
professionalizing
and
regularizing
and
making
transparent
the
work
of
building
a
budget
for
the
future
of
the
city.
G
What
you
haven't
seen,
because
the
staff
does
it
behind
the
scenes
are
months
and
months
of
preparation.
This
budget
started
to
be
prepared
at
the
same
time
that
our
finance
department
and
that
team
is
putting
together.
Our
audit
response
they've
been
working
not
just
in
producing
the
budget,
but
in
really
keeping
the
city's
finances
and
its
fiscal
books
in
order
form
for
a
six-month
period
I'm
at
an
unprecedented
rate
and
working
with
department
heads
in
a
way
that
really
created
a
coherent,
team-based
approach
to
building
a
budget.
G
So
everyone
who
tipped
their
hats
to
your
work
and
to
the
work
of
our
department,
heads
into
the
city
manager
absolutely
were
spot
on.
This
is
a
remarkable
achievement
and
I
I
do
hope.
You'll
take
some
time
to
now
breathe,
relax
a
little
bit
Brad
I'm
glad
to
see
you
could
get
a
haircut
squeezed
in
during
this
whole
process.
Congratulations
good
work
to
everybody,
really
a
phenomenal
achievement
in
professionalizing
and
and
regularizing,
and
making
available
to
anyone
who
wants
to
see
it.
The
real
hard
work
of
the
city's
budget,
our
finances
and
our
priorities.
G
This
budget
started
with
values,
values
of
investing
in
people
investing
in
neighborhoods,
investing
in
sustainability,
investing
in
a
city
government
that
works
for
people
and
to
be
more
user-friendly
and
everything
you've
produced
really
delivers
on
those
promises.
So
I
want
to
thank
you
personally
as
well.
Thank
you
all
Thank
You,
mr.
chair
council,.
