Allan Ekberg, Mayor
TO: Finance and Safety Committee
FROM: Peggy McCarthy, Finance Director
BY: Vicky Carlsen, Deputy Finance Director
CC: Mayor Ekberg
DATE: July 13, 2016
SUBJECT: City Council Department 2017 — 2018 Proposed Budget
ISSUE
As provided for in the budget schedule approved by the Finance and Safety Committee
on July 6, 2016, Council Committees will be reviewing budget sections prior to review
by the full Council. During that meeting it was requested that if budget sections are
completed early they be presented to the Committee when they are ready.
The City Council section of the budget has been drafted, reviewed by City staff, and is
now ready for review by the Finance and Safety Committee. Since this departmental
budget is relatively small this will also serve as a good example to kick off the
committee review process and ensure that the format and process meets the Council's
expectations.
RECOMMENDATION
In accordance with the process established on July 6, staff recommends that the
Finance and Safety Committee forward this section of the budget on to the Committee
of the Whole. At that time, if there are no additional changes, Council consensus will be
requested to move this departmental budget forward to the final budget package in
October.
