Bartle, City Clerk len Glasser, Mayor 1143/20 Date Approved Regular City Commission September 14,2020 ATTACHMENT A September 14, 2020 Minutes Bartle, Donna From: Terri Ray <terrilray@icloud.com> Sent: Monday, September 14, 2020 11:01 AM To: Bartle, Donna Subject: Read at Commission Meeting My Comments To Be Read At Commission Meeting Good evening to you all, These are truly uncertain times, so my comments are relative to tonight's discussion on 2020-2021 budget process. My comments are: 1) With total COVID impact to our city expected around $1.5Million and uncertain the impact on next year's revenue, I wish you would consider significant cuts in spending rather than raise it a quarter million dollars? 2) Can you tell us why ACTUAL spending from last year is absent from the planning for next year's budget? For most companies to effectively budget, previous year performance is a critical piece. I think that would ring true here too. Especially because last year's revenue was short $785,000 from expected (budgeted) revenue last year AND you are expecting to be raised this year. 3) With License, Permit Fees revenue down $300,000 from budgeted, why wouldn't we lower next year's spending down to match that amount or is there some new revenue windfall stream we are not aware? 4) Lastly, I am not comfortable with the last 2 years losing almost $2 million dollars out of our emergency reserves. With uncertainty of COVID added to all our other known risks, I feel strongly this is in the wrong direction. I hope you would seriously consider adjusting the 2020-2021 budget to a focus of restoring reserves back to the secure levels when you came into office. Thank you for your time and your service to our city.

Without these projects, the budget would reflect an increase of only 51,669. Only $7,725 of that increase would be from the General Fund . This budget includes $494,653 projected revenue loss from Utility Franchise Fees and revenues we receive from the State due to COVID-19.
