LINTON, MAYOR ATT ST: EVELYN WELLS, DEPUTYC-I-TY CLERK APPROVED AS TO FORM j� P TRICK T. ROACH, CI Y ATTORNEY • POST OFFICE BOX 293 1 TELEPHONE (509) 547-8801 1 PASCO, WASHINGTON 99301 November 14, 1975 TO: George D. Smith, City Manager FROM: Leo E. Olney, Director of Finance SUBJECT: 1975 SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET Several budgetary items have come up during 1975 that will require a supplemental budget. As the year is fast coming to a close, we need to move on these items immediately. Under RCW 35.33.091, the supplemental budget Ordinance must be introduced at one council meeting and passed the next meeting. If an Ordinance is introduced the 18th of November, it could then be approved on December 2nd. The items that need additional funding are as follows,: GENERAL FUND: 1. Increase to City Manager's salary from $1,750 per month to $2,333 per month, pay his moving expenses ($1,000), and pay termination pay of outgoing City Manager ($5,000) $ X7,000 2. The City's decision to go with a professional labor negotiator necessitates budgeting his costs which currently are projected to be about $3,500. $ 3,500 3. In the original 1975 Budget, an error was made in computing the Clerk/Dispatcher's salaries. An additional $11,000 is needed to cover these salaries. $11,000 4. In the Audit Report for Water/Sewer Department, $9,941.04 was shown as having been spent for clean up in Urban Renewal which is an inappropriate expenditure for that fund. This needs to be paid out of the General Fund. $10,000 Page Two Mr. George Smith 5. The City's Umbrella Liability policy premium has doubled. It went from $7,000 annually to $14,000 annually. The 1975 portion of the increase is: $ 3,500 6. Contributions to the Park Fund. to cover cost of landscaping new area next to Library (see Park Fund for discussion) 2,700 TOTAL GENERAL FUND: $37,300 In addition, the Police had a $1,200 radio stolen which was not covered by insurance. In reviewing the General Fund Budget., there are a number of areas where there appears to be some surplus. Within "Other General Government" (BARS Code 519), there is $10,000 available for other than original budgeted expenditures. There was $22,000 allocated for Street lighting on 5th Avenue, of which only $15,000 is needed (010-519-90-42), $1,000 in Equipment for air conditioning improvements which were not used (010-519-50-64), and $2,000 in salaries for Building Maintenance that was not needed (010-519-50-11). I would recommend these be used to pay back the Water/ Sewer Fund for Urban Renewal work (.Item #4 above). Within the Fire Department, there is at least $10,000 from the unfilled Battalion Chief/Fire Marshal position. I would recommend this be used to supplement the Police Dispatch salary deficiency. (Item #3 above). The Police radio and the additional $1,000 of Dispatch salary can be picked up within the Police budget without cutting them short. The remaining four -0) items; namely, increase in Manager's salary, labor negotiator, increase in insurance premium and landscaping at the Library total to $16,700 and will most probably require a supplemental appropriation. From the Revenue side, I would recommend appropriating the over -collection of building permits to cover these expenses. CEMETERY FUND: Dick Erickson is projecting a $2,000 over -run in expenses at the Cemetery for 1975. $1,600 is for grave boxes which they have gone to. Currently, there is only $1,100 surplus in beginning cash available for approptiation. In reviewing the expenditure report with him, we feel an additional $1,100 appropriation will cover their needs. PARK FUND: There are two items in the Park Fund that require a supplemental budget. 1. Special reimbursable programs. Dick Erickson has estimated an over -run of $3,000 in this account. This is no problem in that he already has collected $3,000 in additional revenue for this item. All that needs to be done is appropriate the $3,000. Page Three Mr. George Smith 2. Park next to Library. The Council approved the purchase of a strip of property next to the Library and directed it be cleared and landscaped. The property was purchased in 1974 and the landscaping is now being done at an esti- mated cost of $2,700. As there is no money in the Park Fund to cover this item, a transfer will have to be made from the General Fund and the Park Fund appropriation increased (see General .Fund, Item #6). GOLF COURSE: Dick Erickson is estimating an over -run in the Golf Course of $2,600. Part of this over -run was two part time summer help for which $1,000 has been received to cover their salary. The other $1,600 is utilities and overtime. This can be covered by the increased revenue for the Pro concession. This Revenue source has tripled under the new Pro from $1,000/year to $3,000 this year. If you concur with these items and recommendations, I will have an Ordinance prepared for the November 18th meeting. It can then be workshopped on November 25th and any adjustments made before its passage on December 2nd.
