The <br />Budget decreased by $1.7 million due to the shift of Community Investment Fund budget and <br />expenditures to the Non-Departmental category. <br />Finance - (48% of budget compared to 44% in 2014-15) - The current year's mid-year <br />expenditures are $188,000 or 18% higher than in 2014-15. The increase is primarily due to <br />the full-year staffing of several positions that were largely vacant in 2014-15. <br />Police Department - (54% of budget compared to 50% in 2014-15)- Police Department <br />expenditures increased by $1.9 million or 13% primarily due to salary contract increases and <br />staffing which was at or near approved limits.
