Subject: Updated 2012 Proposed Budget
Per state law, the City Manager is required to submit a budget, for the following year, for Council /public
review by the first of November. The 2012 Preliminary Budget Executive Summary was presented to
Council at the November 1, 2011 regular business meeting. This document included summary
information regarding all of the City's funds, along with charts, graphs and explanations. This document
also included a section titled "Policy Issues ", which lists significant program changes, major capital
initiatives and personnel adjustments, if any.
Subsequent to November 1 Council held a series of meetings to discuss the proposed budget and
®,. related policy issues, including public hearings on the entire budget and on proposed 2012 property
taxes, both hearings were held on November 15 a public hearing on November 29 regarding a
potential increase in Water, Wastewater, Refuse and Stormwater utility tax rate (of 6 %) to support
General Government operations, and on the possible imposition of a $20 car tab fee for street
preservation. (Should Council approve a 6% increase in the utility tax rate, as noted above, it would
generate approximately $2 million annually.) •
At the November 29 meeting, Council directed staff to prepare draft legislation that, if approved by
Council, would enact the utility tax rate increase and to bring this legislation back to Council at the
Council's regular business meeting on December 6 Council directed that funds generated from an
increase in the Utility tax rate, if enacted, should be allocated based . on the Priorities of Government
(POG) model.
To assist Council with_their decision, the City Manager prepared a list of budget reductions he
recommends be restored should the utility tax rate increase be approved by council. (Copy enclosed.)
Council Actions Requested:
➢ Make decision on the General Government Budget Reductions Policy Issue;
o Requires decision to approve/ reject the enactment of a utility rate increase; (if .
decision to approve — requires Ordinance to be adopted - see separate agenda item);
➢ Make decisions on all other proposed Policy Issues regarding the 2012 Budget
Once the above decisions have been made, staff will prepare the final 2012 budget and related
• legislation and bring back to Council for adoption, (currently scheduled for December 13

2012 Proposed Budget
(asofl2/6/i1)
® Updated 2012 Proposed Budget
(as of 12 - 6 - 11) ,
Since the budget was presented at the first of November, we have continued to evaluate what was
included the revenue and expenditure projections for 2012. Following is a list of changes currently
incorporated in the 2012 budget prior to any modifications resulting from the Council's budget
decisions.
General Government
Revenues
As discussed in previous budget presentations, there was an error in the state's July distribution of sales
tax that resulted in a year to date actual amount that is less than originally anticipated. Since recent
months of sales tax collections have been sluggish, this revenue has been reduced by $100,000 in 2012.
Additionally, the Governor's budget proposal targeted reductions in state - shared revenue to local
governments. The original proposal was the elimination of Liquor Excise Tax and Profit distributions as
of July 1, 2011. Since the Governor's first proposal, the initiative on liquor distribution passed at the
November general election. However, it is likely that our share of any state revenue reductions will be a
similar amount, therefore, the original budget of $1,033,000 has been reduced by $516,500, or 50 %.
Expenditures
The supplemental budget reduction proposal was inserted into the budget based on Council's direction
® at their November 8 meeting. In some cases, the salaries had minor allocations to other funds, so that
the net change of the reductions in General Government was slightly less, although citywide, the full
savings were realized. The allocation of Engineering staff to Stormwater was originally entered as a
payroll split distribution, however, the utility wants General Fund to bill them for time spent, so that the
salaries were restored, but an offsetting revenue of $50,000 was added.
Minor corrections and payroll updates have also been incorporated.
All of these changes netted to a decrease of about $650,810 in expenditures, and a decrease of
$566,500 in revenues, which added $84,310 to the ending 2012 fund balance.
Other Budget Adjustments
Other budget adjustments include:
• The major increase in both revenue and expenditures in the other funds was a grant award of
$2.41 million in the Arterial Street Fund for a $2.7 million project to complete widening of Nob
Hill Blvd from 49 to 64 Avenue.
• The Public Safety Communications fund erroneously had the number of dispatchers over
budgeted by one position, reducing that fund expenditure by $63,400.
• The Public Facilities District Board authorized an additional transfer of $46,000 to the
Convention Center capital fund.
• Transit re- evaluated their capital projects in light of the sluggish sales tax and timing of grant
awards, reducing the capital revenue by $315,000, and expenditures by $708,000.
• Several funds were affected by the personnel cuts from the General Government supplemental
reductions, (as mentioned above), and other miscellaneous payroll updates.
In total, expenditures in non - general government funds were increased by $2,003,968, and revenues
were increased by $2,121,000 from the preliminary budget.

Summary
When added to the changes in General Government funds, total expenditures increased by a net of
$1,353,157, and total revenues increased by $1,554,500, so that the total citywide expenditures are
$188,798,183, and total citywide revenues are $179,381,233. All fund balances remain within minimum
guidelines.
The citywide summary tables of the total City 2011 and 2012 have been updated and are attached for

MEMORANDUM
To: The Honorable Mayor and members of the Yakima City Council
From: Don Cooper, City Manager
Date: December 1, 2011
Re: Allocation of "in -lieu utility revenues"
If the 6% increase in the "in -lieu utility tax" is approved by the City Council, I would propose that
those funds be allocated in the following manner.
The allocation of the Public Safety portion (68.8% or $1,376,000) is recommended as follows.
1. Restore six police officer positions (patrol officers only): $530,000
• a. Equipment for those positions: $149,664
Four police cars ($120,864)
Six radios ($14,400) •
Four light bars ($14,400)
2. Police Academy training: $48,000
3. Restore firefighter position: $80,000
4. Reserve funds for estimated 2013 state revenue reductions
(Public safety portion): $344,000
5. Restore legal assistants' positions (public safety portion): $40,000
6. Restore fire inspector position: $67,600
7. Reserve funds in anticipation of 2012/2013 state revenue
reductions: $116,738
The non-public safety allocation (31.2% or $624,000) is proposed to be allocated as follows.
1. Reserve funds for 2013 state revenue reductions: $195,000
2. Restore positions in City Manager's office: $202,500
• 3: Restore Public Records Clerk from 1 4 of 3
( / year to 3 /4 of year). $60,600
•
4. Restore Legal Assistants (non - public safety share): $40,000
5. Restore Financial Service Specialist: $62,000
6. Restore operating supplies (street maintenance): $29,000
7. Reserve funds for 2012/2013 state revenue reductions: $34,900
As proposed, all of the supplemental layoffs of active personnel (except the construction
inspector which is recommended for elimination due to lack of construction activity) would be
restored. The other position eliminations or reductions proposed in the Priorities of Government
(POG) model and the supplemental reductions are proposed to remain in place.
I have recommended additional reserve funds ($143,636- 211,236) due to the unknown potential
impacts of state shared revenue reductions. This amount equals between 5-7% of the
anticipated state shared revenues. Given the uncertainty of the situation, I believe it is prudent
to provide the City Council greater ability to address the potential uncertainties of 2012/2013.
Once the revenue picture becomes clear, the Council may wish to restore some of the
eliminated vacant positions depending upon need. At this point in the process there are too
many unknowns; therefore the need for greater flexibility is suggested.

MEMORANDUM
To Members of the Yakima City Council
From Micah Cawley, Mayor

staggered hiring of the new officers)

Total $2,000,000

numbers for me My proposal includes the necessary cuts previously outlined in order to
balance the 2012 budget.
