In continuation of Fiscal Year 2010-2011 budget workshop, City Manager Bruno Rumbelow
reviewed the contingency plan developed by Department Heads for trimming additional
positions from the proposed budget, if it were to become necessary. He stated the City will
end this fiscal year at 21% General Fund balance and going back to the 20% requirement
for next year frees up$420,000.00. The tax rate will remain at$.35 per$100 valuation with
ad valorem revenue expected to rise over budget amounts as values under protest are
settled. He stated that all major capital item purchases will be delayed until after the first
quarter and that the City will remain on the "pay as you go" program. He stated that the
proposed budget is $6.1 million less that the current fiscal year's budget.
