No Action Taken:
RCW 42.24 governs the process for audit and review of claims and payroll payments for the City. RCW 42.24.180
requires the review and approval of all payments at a regularly scheduled public meeting on at least a monthly basis.
The State Budgeting, Accounting and Reporting Systems (BARS) Manual outlines the above format for approval by
the City Council.
RCW 42.24.080 requires that all claims presented against the City by persons furnishing materials, rendering
services, or performing labor must be certified by the appropriate official to ensure that the materials have been
furnished, the services rendered, or the labor performed as described, and that the claims are just, due and unpaid
obligations against the City.
RCW 42.24.180 allows expedited processing of the payment of claims when certain conditions have been met. The
statute allows the issuance of warrants or checks in payment of claims before the legislative body has acted to
approve the claims when: (1) the appropriate officers have furnished official bonds; (2) the legislative body has
adopted policies that implement effective internal control; (3) the legislative body has provided for review of the
documentation supporting the claims within a month of issuance; and (4) that if claims are disapproved, they shall be
recognized as receivables and diligently pursued.
The City meets all these conditions.
To comply with the requirements, Finance staff schedule payment of claims and payroll for semi-monthly Council
approval on the Consent Agenda. The payments listed in the schedule cover all claims and payroll payments during
the period prior to the date of the Council meeting.
All payments made during this period were found to be valid claims against the City. Details are attached and any
questions should be directed to the City Manager or Finance Director.
The City’s internal controls include certification of the validity of all payments by the appropriate department prior to
submission for payment. The Finance Director has delegated authority for the examination of vouchers and
authorization of payments to the Finance, Accounts Payable, and Payroll staff. All payments are reviewed and
validated. The Finance Division regularly reviews its processes to ensure appropriate internal controls are in place.

On July 10, 2025, facilities maintenance was notified that a leak was heard coming from an overhead pipe at
Fire Station No. 1.
City staff removed some soffit to access the piping and discovered a section of custom pipe, in the fire sprinkler
system, had rusted through, which required fabrication of a replacement piece. The damaged pipe rendered the
fire sprinkler system inoperable.
The Public Works Director was made aware of the situation an emergency was declared to allow staff to bypass
bid solicitation requirements and get a contactor onsite as soon as possible.
Staff called a contractor who had completed a previous fire sprinkler system emergency repair. The contractor
replaced the pipe on July 12, 2025, and reenergized the fire sprinkler system.
The "Expenditure Required" listed above is the invoiced amount.

2) Annual expenses will increase by average CPI (over past 10 years - 2.90%) using 2026 proposed budget expenses, $62,555, as base year
3) Required annual reserve amount is based on 12% of annual budgeted expenses per City policy
4) Beginning fund balance includes the required reserve amount from previous year.
5) Fund balances do not "hold" funds for the future projects since the MLMA does not bring in enough revenue to fully fund projects.

Overview
Fiscal and Policy Implications

Provide Amended Direction:
No Action Taken:
The City contracted with FCS Group to provide a Utility Rate study for water and wastewater in late 2024. FCS
Group presented the wastewater rate study findings to Council on July 22nd and provided four rate options for
Council to consider as we move into the 2026 budget year and beyond.
Option 1: Across the Board increases for all customer classes for the next 5 years. This option provides a 5%
increase in wastewater rates for all customer classes in 2026 and 2027 and a 3% increase for all customer
classes in 2028 through 2030. The average increase for single family and duplex customers is $1.80 per unit
with multi-family units increasing an average of $0.51 per unit under this option. There is no noticeable change
in cost-of-service recovery under this option. Single-family and duplex customers would continue to provide
significantly more towards cost recovery than other user classes (multi-family, commercial, and industrial).
Option 2: Address some of the cost-of-service disparity by holding residential and duplex increases static and
increasing the other user classes. Under this option, single family and duplex customers would not see
increases in wastewater rates for the next 5 years (2026 - 2030), while multi-family users would see an average
increase of $1.84 per unit. Commercial users would see an average increase of $5.23 in fixed charges and
$0.24/ccf in flow charge, while Industrial users would experience an average $12.39 increase in fixed charge
and $0.54/ccf increase in flow charge. Cost of service recovery under this model sees the most improved
movement in all classes and brings commercial customers within the cost-of-service recovery threshold by
2030.
Option 3: This option would address some of the cost-of-service disparity by limiting rate increases to non-
residential customers (multi-family, commercial, industrial) to a maximum of two times the across the board
increases in option 1. In this model, single family and duplex customers would see an average increase of
$0.90 per unit over the next five years while multi-family customers would see an average of $1.10 increase per
unit. Commercial customers would see an average increase in fixed charges of $4.16 while the flow charge
would be increased an average of $0.18/ccf. The average increase in fixed charges for industrial customers
under this model would be $4.68 with flow charge increasing an average of $0.21/ccf. Under this option,
progress is made toward cost-of-service recovery, but doesn't completely align cost recovery among the user
classes.
Option 4: Full cost-of-service recovery for all classes. Under this option, full cost-of-service recovery per user
class would be achieved by 2030. In this model, single-family and duplex customers would see rate decreases
over the next five years, while multi-family, commercial and industrial user classes would see more substantial
increases over the next five years. The average decrease per unit for single-family would be $0.95 per unit
while duplex customers would see an average $1.34 per unit decrease over the next five years. Fixed charges
would increase an average of $2.97 per unit for multi-family, $6.37 for commercial and $18.45 for industrial
users. The flow charge would increase and average of $0.28/ccf for commercial users and $0.81/ccf for
industrial users under this model. Under this option, full cost-of-service is achieved for all user classes by 2030
(all classes are within 5% of 100% full cost recovery).
Utility rates are set to recover the cost of providing service (regular and ongoing operating costs and capital
costs). Cost of service recovery is achieved, but depending on the option chosen, the distribution of costs to the
customer classes is impacted.
Options and Results
Provide guidance on which option to use in setting wastewater utility rates for 2026 through 2030.
Staff will bring back options for recommended changes.
Wastewater utility rates for 2026 would be increased by CPI only and no noticeable movement made towards
cost recovery based on user classification.

Potential Rate Design Options
1.Across the Board Increases
»All classes increase by the overall revenue requirement
2.Address Cost of Service – Hold Residential
»Hold Single-Family and Duplex classes at current rates
»Address Multi-Family, Commercial, and Industrial under-collection
3.Address Cost of Service – Cap Rate Increase
»Cap Multi-Family, Commercial, and Industrial rates at 2x system-wide increase
»Use Single-Family and Duplex to address additional revenue needed
4.Reach Cost of Service for all Classes by 2030
»Adjust rates according to cost of service results by 2030
»Smooth adjustments for Single-Family and Duplex classes
All scenarios are designed to generate the same overall revenue for the utility

Section 5.04.040 - Application for New Business: Strike language that limits issuance of a business license
until after approval of the location by the Fire Chief and Building Inspector. Strike the second paragraph
which requires a business license to remain in a pending status for 60 days from the date of receipt of the
application in its entirety. Documentation required by Fire or Building will be handled through the permit
process in the Community Development department.
Section 5.04.050 - Location Change: Add "State Department of Revenue...." to the first sentence of the first
paragraph. Strike language that restricts issuance of a new business license for a location change until
approval of the new location is received by the Fire Chief and Building Inspector. Change "The business
license" to "Permits for the new location........" in the third sentence. Inspections and approvals for new
locations will be handled through the permit process in Community Development.
Section 5.04.070 - Conditional Licenses: The entire section will be removed. Conditional licenses will be
handled through the permit processes in Community Development. Sections 5.04.080 - Fee Schedule thru
Section 5.04.012: Existing sections 5.04.080 through 5.04.120 will be renumbered to 5.04.070 through
5.04.110 to reflect the removal of existing section 5.04.070.
New Section 5.04.080 - Exemptions: Recent changes to the threshold amount (RCW 35.90.080) for
businesses conducting business in the city limits but who do not maintain a place of business within the City
requires updates to section 5.04.080 (F). Currently, any person or business who does not maintain a place of
business with the City and whose annual value of products, gross proceeds of sales, or gross income of the
business in the City is less than or equal to $2,000, is required to submit a business license registration, but is
exempt from the City license fee. The State of Washington Business License Service (BLS) model threshold
for gross proceeds of sales, annual value of products or gross income for out of City businesses is increasing
to $4,000 effective January 1, 2026 and will automatically increase every four years based on cumulative
inflation. Staff recommends increasing the BLS threshold to $20,000 and not requiring a business registration
for those businesses who do not maintain a place of business within City limits.
The BLS changes will be effective January 1, 2026, but the ordinance establishing the threshold must to be
updated and adopted by the City before the end of August to provide BLS time to make the necessary system
changes.
The gross income, gross proceeds of sales or annual value of products threshold for out-of-city businesses
exempted from submitting a business license registration and license fee would increase from $2,000 to
$20,000 effective January 1, 2026.
Options and Results
Adopt Ordinance 3075 as presented.
Staff will bring back options for recommended changes.
We would be out of compliance with the state Department of Revenue Business License Model ordinance under
RCW 35.90.080.

No Action Taken:
The Moses Lake City Council is being asked to consider the 2025 Docket as recommended by the Moses
Lake Planning Commission. The Docket is a list of items for discussion that may amend the City's Unified
Development Code and/or Comprehensive Plan. The City Council may adopt, reject, or change the
recommendation to create the “Final Docket 2025.”
This preliminary “Docket” is a list of potential or pending topics for discussion. The exact language for each
topic of discussion will be developed as the proposed items move through the public process. The 2025
Docket provides two separate "dockets.” The first Docket lists amendments to the City of Moses Lake
Comprehensive Plan, and the second list are proposed amendments to the City of Moses Lake Unified
Development Code (MLUDC).
The Docketing process provides an opportunity where the public, City Council, and Planning Commission
may propose amendments to the Comprehensive Plan and the Unified Development Code (Land Use
Development Code). The rules regarding the docketing process (getting on the list of potential amendments)
are found in Chapter 15.240 Comprehensive Plan and Development Regulation Amendments. This process
is designed to comply with the Washington State Growth Management Act's requirement to provide for
meaningful public participation. Community Development staff has placed all applications (one was
removed) and proposals on the "Preliminary Docket" for the Planning Commission, and this agenda item for
the City Council. The Docketing process is meant to be simple and straight forward. Many of the
amendments are derived from “testing the new code” and “why the amendment is a good idea.” While
others are proposed to meet adoption processing for implementation.
Staff will bring the proposed Planning Commission 2025 Docket to your next meeting for Council approval.
Placement on the “Final Docket” is not approval of the proposed item. Rather, it means the City Council has
determined the proposal is worthy of devoting resources and time for consideration.
Community Development will subsequently and thoroughly analyze items placed on the “Final Docket”
before bringing them back to the Planning Commission for review, deliberation and consideration. After
holding workshops and a public hearing, the Planning Commission will make a recommendation to the City
Council, which then makes a final decision on each listed or docket item.
None foreseen at this time.
Options and Results
Planning staff will bring the Docket to the next meeting for approval.
Staff will bring back options for recommended changes.
There will be no amendments to the Comprehensive Plan or Unified Development Code.

STAFF REPORT
To: Planning Commission
From: Vivian Ramsey, Planning Manager / Interim Community Development
Director
Date: July 10, 2025
Proceeding Type: Public Hearing
Subject: 2025 Comprehensive Plan and Code Amendment Preliminary
Dockets
Legislative History:
•First Presentations:April 10, 2025 and June 12, 2025
•
• Action: Motion – Recommend Approval of Dockets (two)
Overview
The Community Development Department has prepared two separate 2025 “Dockets” regarding
amendments to the City of Moses Lake Comprehensive Plan and City of Moses Lake Unified
Development Code (MLUDC).
The docket is a process where the public, city, Council and Planning Commission may propose
amendments to the Comprehensive Plan and the Unified Development Code (Land Use Development
Code). The rules regarding the docketing process are found in Chapter 15.240 Comprehensive Plan
and Development Regulation Amendments. The docket process provides the public with a way to
propose changes to the Comprehensive Plan or development regulations directly to the City Council.
It is designed to comply with the Washington State Growth Management Act’s requirement to provide
for meaningful public participation.
Community Development has placed all applications (one was removed) and proposals on this list
called the “Preliminary Docket”. Community Development has provided a brief description of each
proposal and recommendation.
The Docket process is meant to be simple and straight forward. Many of the amendments are derived
from “testing the new code” and “why the amendment is a good idea.” While others are a process to
meet adoption processing for implementation.
The City of Moses Lake Planning Commission is being asked to consider the proposed amendments
at this public hearing and make a recommendation to the Moses Lake City Council to set the 2025
Dockets. The City Council will then consider the Planning Commission’s recommendation at a public
hearing, and may adopt, reject, or change the recommendation to create the “Final Docket.”
COML Council Packet 8-26-25, Page 112 of 154
Page 2 of 3
Placement on the “Final Docket” is not approval of the proposal. Rather, it means the City Council has
determined the proposal is worthy of devoting resources and time to complete the amendments.
Community Development will thoroughly analyze items placed on the “Final Docket” before bringing
them to the Planning Commission for consideration. After holding workshops and a public hearing, the
Planning Commission makes a recommendation to the City Council, which then makes a final decision
on each docket item.

No Action Taken:
Community Development Director:
The City has experienced challenges in attracting highly qualified candidates for this role. Offering a more
competitive salary range positions the City to attract top-tier professionals with the specialized skills and
leadership experience required. This position plays a critical role in advancing key initiatives, managing
complex operations, and ensuring regulatory compliance. The cost of underfilling or prolonged vacancies in this
position can result in operational inefficiencies and delayed progress on strategic goals. Investing in a higher
pay range now can reduce turnover, improve organizational stability, and enhance service delivery—ultimately
yielding long-term cost savings and improved community outcomes. This position is presently positioned in
Grade 24 of the unrepresented pay scale.
RECOMMENDATION: Move this position to Grade 25 of current unrepresented pay grade.
Capital Improvement Project Program Manager:
The scope of work falling as a direct responsibility of this position is capital planning and funding. In addition,
this position has taken ownership of the engineering budget, previously a responsibility of the City Engineer.
Given the additional responsibilities, the correct title for this position should be Assistant Public Works Director.
This position has operational supervisor of the engineering department. The market analysis utilizing the
comparable cities shows this position is below the market. This position is presently positioned in Grade 22 of
the unrepresented pay scale.
RECOMMENDATION: Change position title to Assistant Public Works Director and place in Grade 24
of current unrepresented pay grade.
City Engineer:
This position is presently positioned at Grade 24 of the unrepresented pay scale. This position will not have the
responsibility of preparing the engineering budget and will retain professional engineering related supervision.
The market analysis utilizing the comparable cities shows this position is more in line with Grade 23 of the
current unrepresented pay scale.
RECOMMENDATION: Move this position to Grade 23 of current unrepresented pay grade. Note:
Incumbent in this role will have current wage frozen so that they do not take a pay cut.
There will be sufficient funds for these changes due to unfilled positions.
Options and Results
Approve recommended salary grade changes.
Staff will bring back options for recommended changes.
No changes would be made to salary grades for these positions.

MEMORANDUM
To: Rob Karlinsey, City Manager
From: Madeline Prentice, Finance Director
Subject: 2025 2nd Quarter Budget Revenue and Expenditure Report
I am pleased to submit the City of Moses Lake’s 2025 second quarter actual results compared to
budgeted revenue and expenditure report for all city funds. Balances shown are subject to final
adjustments made as a result of the year-end closing processes. Year-end closing processes will
not be officially concluded until the State Auditor’s work is completed.
Overall, the City is performing as expected in many areas through mid-year of 2025. At the end
of second quarter of 2025, we are seeing typical variances tied to timing of revenue receipts,
position vacancies and timing of expenses. Citywide, we ended the quarter slightly under budget
in revenues at $54.18 million (49.1%), with expenses also under budget by 7.7% at $49.53
million (42.3% of budget). The revenue shortfall is largely due to the timing of revenues from
grants for capital projects and are discussed in more detail below. Expenditures are largely
under budget due to the timing of expenditures for other operating funds and capital projects that
either haven’t been started or won’t be completed and paid for until later in the year.
This report is summarized by type of fund, and reported by functional type, and includes the
following sections:

General Fund Revenue Analysis
Property Tax – The first half of the Property Tax assessment is due to the Grant County
Treasurer by April 30th with the second half due October 31st. A significant portion (roughly
55%-65%) of each assessment is remitted to the city in the month following the due date, with
the remaining amount collected remitted in the second month following the due date. The
budget was set based on assumptions of new construction and collection rates and then
discounted for collection delinquencies. Property tax collections through the first half of the year
are above budget at 58.4% or $5.96 million largely due to collection of delinquent taxes.
Sales Tax – Actual sales tax at the end of the second quarter are 3.2% under budget at 46.8% for
collections of just over $5.47 million. Sales tax is 4.4% or $249k lower than the same period in
2024.
Sales Tax-Public Safety - This represents the 0.3% Criminal Justice Tax. As with Sales Tax,
public safety sales tax is under budget by 2.3% to end the first half of the year at $954k or
47.7%. Compared to the first half of 2024, public safety sales tax is $33k or 3.3% lower than the
same period.

Utility Tax – This revenue source experiences fluctuations either from rate adjustments or
seasonal usage. Utility tax ended the second quarter ahead of budget at $2.37 million (52.4%)
and 6.3% or $141k ahead of the first half in 2024. All utilities have varied increases over 2024,
except garbage and landline telephone taxes. The increases in all other utility tax more than
offset the decreases.
Gambling Taxes – Gambling tax revenues for the first half of the year are exceeding budget by
5.8% with collections of $140k and are $5.8k or 4.3% higher than the first half of 2024.
Other Taxes— This consists of Leasehold Excise Tax and Admissions Tax. Through the first
half of the year, these taxes are slightly outpacing budget at $35k or 52.8% of budget.
Admissions tax is $5.0k higher than the first half of 2024 and 9.7% above budget. Leasehold
Excise Tax is 5.7% under budget at $13.3k and lower than the same period in 2024 by $2.2k or
14.3%.
Licenses and Permits – The majority of this revenue is generated by development and is
difficult to budget for because it is volatile by nature. Licenses and permits revenue is outpacing
budget by 9.0% to end the first half of the year at $720k (59.0%). Compared to the first half of
2024, license and permit fees are $393k (35.3%) lower. Much of the decrease compared to 2024
is due to reduced building permit revenue.
Intergovernmental Revenue – This category includes State-shared revenue, the PUD privilege
tax, Criminal Justice funding and other grants. Intergovernmental revenue ended the first half of
the year at 44.9% for collections of $937k, down 5.1% compared to budget. Intergovernmental
revenues are lower than the first half of 2024 by 19.2%, largely due to the timing of receipts
from grants. State shared revenues are ahead of 2024 by 16.8% or $65.6k. Criminal justice
funding is 3% lower than budget at $219k and 7.2% or $17k less than the same period in 2024.
Charges for Goods and Services primarily consist of:
Fees charged for Parks and Recreation Programs,
Zoning, subdivision, plan check and annexation fees,
School Resource Officers (SRO’s) reimbursed by Moses Lake School District, and;
Fire protective inspection fees and other fire reimbursements
The majority of fees charged for Parks and Recreation programs are received during the third
quarter of the year. Parks, Recreation, and Museum activity and programming fees for the first
half of the year are under budget by 4.2% at $711k but are ahead of the same period in 2024 by
10.3% or $66.1k. Zoning, subdivision, and plan check fees are above budget by 4.1%, to end the
first half of the year at $319k but are behind the same period in 2024 by 8.3%. SRO and Fire
reimbursement fees for the first half of the year are ahead of budget by 10.4% at $317k but are
behind 2024 by $23k or 6.9%.

Fines and Penalties consist almost entirely of fines generated by the red-light camera program.
A new one-year contract was negotiated with Verra Mobility for this program for the period
from July 2024 to June 2025 to allow time to assess the costs/revenues for the program long-
term. The revenue collections do not cover the costs of the program and therefore, the contract
will not be extended beyond June 2025. Revenues collected will be significantly under budget
for the entire year as the budget was anticipated to be similar to the previous year’s collections.
Revenues for the first half of the year are $102k or 35.5% below budget, but significantly higher
than 2024 due to the delays in revenue collections from the conversion to electronic citations
during 2024.
Miscellaneous Revenues/Other Financing Resources include interest earnings on investments,
facility rentals and other financing sources such as sales of surplus or capital assets, debt
proceeds, special or extraordinary items that are unusual or infrequent in occurrence or interfund
loans. Interest earnings continue to be strong through the first half of the year resulting in
revenues outperforming budget by $134k or 149.5% of budget. Interest previously was collected
in the General Fund throughout the year and only allocated to other interest earning funds at
year-end. At the beginning of 2025, we changed the allocation process and are now allocating
interest monthly to ensure the General Fund is not overstated due to unallocated interest
earnings. Facility rentals for the first half of the year exceeded budget by 26.0% to end at $155k
and are ahead of 2024 by $8k or 5.8%.
Other Financing Sources are made up primarily of the City Administrative fee charged to funds
for services provided by the executive branch, human resources, and finance and transfers in.
The charges are based on budget throughout the year and are trued-up to actuals once we have
finished the final accounting for the year. The transfers-in are the actual expenses incurred
through the first half of the year for police staff and the ERP system implementation in addition
to funding for the animal shelter operations that are being reimbursed from ARPA funds.
Summary - Overall, General Fund revenue is on budget at 50.7% to end the first half of the year
at $20.05 million and is lagging 2024 revenues by $363k or 1.8% lower. Strong property tax,
utility taxes, licenses and permits, and interest collections are being offset by slightly lower sales
tax collections, intergovernmental revenues and charges for goods and services. Fines and
penalties will continue to be significantly under budget for the year due to the discontinuation of
the Verra Mobility (red-light camera) program at the end of June. The transfer of funds from the
General Fund to a separate Rainy Day Fund as approved by Council in the 2025 budget will
occur by year-end.

General Fund Expenditure Analysis
The General Fund Expenditures ended the first half of the year under budget by 3.8% at $20.1
million (46.2%) compared to budget. Expenses outpaced 2024 by 4.2% and were $817k higher.
The increase over 2024 is due to increases in salaries, benefits, supplies, and capital
expenditures, offset by decreases in professional services.
Since the General Fund is nearly 60% staffing, events affecting total payroll have a significant
impact on budgets. Position vacancies may start out being an “overage” because of the cashout
of earned accrued leave balances but then can produce savings when a position is vacant for any

length of time. Most variances in individual divisions are the result of annual salary and benefit
increases, offset by position vacancy savings and increased supply costs and capital expenditures
which are offset by decreases in professional services costs.
General government funds are under budget by 12.2% to end the second quarter at $1.79 million.
This is largely due to position vacancies during the first half of the year, a reduction in
professional service costs and timing of payments. General government funds are below the
same period in 2024 by $152k or 7.8%, due to position vacancies and reduced professional
services costs.
Public Safety costs are on budget at $10.4 million (50.2%). Public Safety is ahead of 2024 by
$611k or 6.2% largely due to salary and benefit increases.
Engineering is under budget by 13.0%, to end the first half of the year at $1.07 million or 37% of
budget. Compared to the same period in 2024, engineering is $6.6k (0.6%) lower largely due to
position vacancies and better tracking and charging of reimbursable labor to capital projects.
Planning/Economic Development ended the second quarter under budget at $1.27 million
(44.0%) in expenses and is slightly ahead of 2024 by $13.3k or 1.1%. Vacant positions that
remained unfilled coupled with decreased supply and professional services costs caused
favorable variances, while wage and benefit increases led to the increase over 2024.
Social Services includes payments to the Health District and the Moses Lake Senior Center in
addition to the 2% liquor excise tax retained by Grant County each quarter. The Health District
and Moses Lake Senior Center payments were each paid in full during the first quarter of the
year.
Culture and Recreation are under budget at $3.7 million or 45.6% of budget at the end of the
second quarter. Compared to 2024, Culture and Recreation is 7.5% or $258k higher as a result
of wage and benefit increases, offset by decreases in professional services.
Other Financing Uses includes debt service, capital expenditures and transfers-out to Street
Operations. The first half of the year principal payments on LOCAL borrowing debt are made in
June, with the second half of the year principal payments due in August and December. Capital
expenditures are for the Tyler ERP software implementation currently underway in Finance and
Human Resources. The implementation costs are being reimbursed by ARPA funds. Transfers
to Street Operations are based on budget throughout the year and are reconciled and trued-up to
actuals at the end of the year.
Conclusion - General Fund ended the second quarter slightly under budget at $20.06 million or
46.2% of adopted budget in expenditures and ahead of the same period in 2024 by 4.9% or
$934k. The underspending compared to budget is largely due to position vacancies that have
remained unfilled as well as decreased professional services costs, while the increase over 2024
COML Council Packet 8-26-25, Page 143 of 154
Page 8 of 10
is due to salary and benefit increases, increased supply costs, and capital expenditures offset by
decreased professional services and bank fees.
Other Funds Analysis
At the end of the second quarter, Other Fund revenues are 1.5% under budget at 48.5% or $34.12
million, while expenses are 10.1% under budget at $29.48 million or 39.9% of budget. Capital
improvement and debt service funds are the drivers of the revenue and expense shortfall due to
the timing of revenues from grants or transfers from other funds for debt payments, as well as the
payment of expenses related to capital projects and debt service. Liability insurance is paid in
full in January of each year. Revenues are ahead of 2024 by $3.87 million or 12.8%, while
expenses are higher by $3.2 million or 25.8%. The expenditure increase over 2024 is largely due
to increased wages and benefits, full payment of the liability insurance in January and capital
expenditures in the first half of the year for projects completed late in 2024.
Other Operating Funds are slightly ahead of budget in revenues at $5.04 million (52.3%), while
expenses are under budget by 7.1% at $5.3 million or 42.7% of budget. The spending decrease
is largely due to Tourism expenditures that are not paid out until after events have taken place
(generally paid in the 3rd quarter), capital projects that don’t get paid until projects are
completed, and ARPA transfers that will occur after expenditures are complete. Revenues
exceeded 2024 by $541k or 12.0% largely because of the additional one-tenth of one percent
transportation benefit district sales and use tax. The first half of 2025 expenditures were higher

than 2024 by $1.79 million or 51.1% mainly due to increased transfers out of the Transportation
Benefit District to Street Repair and Street Operations, ARPA transfers for the first half of the
year expenditures, and increases in salaries, benefits, supplies, and services in Street Operations
offset by decreases in expenditures from Grants and Donations.
Enterprise funds are slightly ahead of budget in revenues to end the second quarter at $14.9
million (51.1% of budget), while expenses are slightly under budget at $14.2 million (47.7% of
budget). Compared to the same period in 2024, revenues exceeded actuals by $538k or 3.7%
higher while expenses were higher by $1.77 million or 14.3%. At the end of the second quarter,
wages and supplies are down slightly, while increases in wages, benefits, services, and transfers
to capital funds are driving the overage compared to 2024.
Internal Service funds are slightly behind budget by 1.6% in revenues to end the first quarter at
$4.65 million (48.4% of budget) and on budget in expense at $5.13 million or 50.5% of budget.
Compared to 2024, revenues are ahead by $563k (13.8%) while expenses are higher by $1.79
million or 53.6%. Overspending compared to budget and 2024 is the result of the solar array
project and the operations building re-roof project not being completed by year-end and
payments occurring in the first half of 2025. The grant reimbursements for the solar array
project expenditures were received in July.
Variances in capital funds (15.1% under budget in revenues at $6.3 million, 34.7% under budget
in expenditures at $2.7 million) are related to timing of major projects. Capital funds are higher
than 2024 revenues by $3.3 million (110.4%) due to grant funds received for projects completed
at the end of 2024, additional transfers-in from the Transportation Benefit District and monthly
interest allocations that were previously only done at year-end. Expenses are higher than in 2024
by $73k (2.8%) due to timing of payments for projects completed near year-end.
Risk Management/ Employee Benefit Reserves are ahead of budget in both revenue and expense
due to the payment of liability insurance in January of each year. Transfers from other funds for
the payment occur in the same period that the payment is made. Compared to 2024, revenue and
expenses are ahead of actuals by $212k (9.0%) and $182k (9.1%) respectively due to increased
liability insurance costs.
The final payment on the 2004 water and sewer revenue bonds was made in 2024. The
remaining bonds are the 2016 general obligation bonds which mature in 2026 and the State
Treasurer LOCAL program borrowings for two fire trucks and the Larson Recreation Center.
Principal payments are made in June, August and December, with interest only payments on the
2016 general obligation bonds due in February of each year.
Details on individual other fund revenue and expense variances compared to budget and prior
years can be found on Exhibit 1 attached.

Conclusion
Overall, Citywide results through the second quarter of 2025 are below budgeted revenues and
expenditures. Citywide revenues ended the first half at $54.18 million at 49.1% and exceeded
the same period of 2024 by $3.5 million or 6.9%. Variances are due to normal timing of receipt
of funds from grant funds, taxes or other revenue sources. Citywide expenditures are under
budget by 7.7%, to end the first half at $49.5 million or 42.3% of budget. Compared to 2024, the
first half expenditures are $4.2 million ahead of 2024 or 9.2% higher. Variances to budget are
due to timing of major capital project completion, while variances to 2024 are the result of wage,
benefit, liability insurance, supplies, and services increases, coupled with capital projects
completed just prior to year-end, but not paid for until after the beginning of the year.
All funds have positive fund balances. At the end of the first half, Citywide fund balance saw an
increase of $4.6 million with net gains in Enterprise, Capital Improvements, Risk
Management/Employee Benefit Reserves, and Debt Service funds, while the General Fund,
Other Operating, and Internal Service Funds all used beginning fund balance. The General Fund
saw a use of fund balance of $6k resulting in an ending fund balance of $10.5 million. Citywide
ending fund balances for the first half of the year is $64.1 million.
