who presented the Update of Water and Wastewater System Impact Fees Report dated

ten-year planning period of 2002 to 2012. He addressed the various elements of the
second and final phase of developing water and wastewater impact fees including
mandated fee credits. After analysis, Freese and Nichols, Inc. reported that the preferred
approach to establish the maximum allowable fee was to utilize a credit equal to 50% of
the total projected cost of implementing the capital improvement plan. The maximum
allowable fee must be calculated to establish the upper limit for the fee utilizing the credits
required by law. The Council can then impose any fee less than or equal to the maximum
allowable within the designated service area identified in the Amended Land Use
Assumption Map.
The Impact Fee Advisory Committee recommends that the City Council consider adopting
the following fees: maximum fee after 50% credit for water/SFLUE of $1,696; maximum
.u5 fee after 50% credit for wastewater/SFLUE of $1,082.

CALL TO ORDER

ITEM 1. WORKSHOP, BUDGET FISCAL YEAR 2002-2003
City Manager Roger Nelson presented the proposed budget for Fiscal Year 2002-2003
(FY2003) noting the budget represents our continuing commitment to prudent fiscal
management while further enhancing City services to improve the quality of life and meet
expressed needs in our community. The proposed budget comes at a time unique in our
history, after the events of September 11, 2001. While the negative impacts on the local
and national economies have been great, this budget proposal continues our efforts to
meet operational requirements caused by growth pressures in the face of a slower
economy.
Preparation of the FY2003 Budget has been significantly affected by the condition of the
local economy. The City has seen shortfalls in several General Fund revenue sources
during 2002. Sales tax has dropped back to FY2001 levels and the Ad Valorem tax base
for 2003 had declined by $33,000,000. Both revenue declines appear to be a direct result
of impacts on the airline and travel industries and the recession. As a result of these
conditions, the FY2003 Budget follows the trend of FY2002, which supports existing
programs with no expansion of increased service levels.
08/21/02
City Manager Nelson noted that there are some highlights on the horizon with the opening
of a Wal-Mart Supercenter and Sam's Club in FY2003, the Opryland Hotel in FY2004 and
Terminal D at DFW in FY2005. However, City Manager Nelson also expressed concern
about the rate of recovery for both property and sales tax receipts and the future impacts
that could be felt in the City's services.
City Manager Nelson noted the operating budget does not allow for any employee raises
for FY2003 and the hiring freeze instituted during 2002 has been modified and continued.
He noted there are no significant modifications to the health care plan contemplated at this
time.
Mr. Nelson reviewed the General Fund, Utility Fund, Convention & Visitors Bureau Fund,
and the Lake Enterprise Fund noting that the proposed tax rate for FY2003 is $0.366 per
$100.00 valuation. With this rate the General Fund balance equals 63 days of operation
while continuing to maintain expenditures to the extent that base revenues match
expenditures. The Budget projected ending general fund balance of $6,637,850.00 is
three days in excess of requirements. General Fund Revenues anticipated for FY2002 is
$38,396,414.00 with expenditures projected at $38,396,414.00.
Mayor Tate and the City Council commended City Manager Nelson and Staff for the
detailed preparation and presentation of the proposed budget.
