City Council Goals for the Year 2000 <br />Project Name: Cost/Revenue Study Findings <br />Project Description: Presentation of DMG's Cost/Revenue Study findings on General Fund <br />fees. The Enterprise and Internal Service Fund fees and rates are being done separately. <br />Developer fees will be dealt with at the conclusion of this study. The study has been completed <br />and will be presented to the City Council Finance Committee and, subsequently, to the full City <br />Council. <br />Vision/Opportunities: For those City functions which are regulatory in nature, or where the City <br />is providing a fee based service, the goal is to identify the costs of such regulation or service and <br />the fee revenues necessary to have such activity self supporting, or if not self supporting, identify <br />the General Fund subsidy for such regulation or service. <br />Constraints: Community resistance to increases in fees. Philosophical and/or political <br />positions on subsidization of services. <br />Timeline: We plan to bring one department at a time to the Finance Committee for <br />consideration. There will need to be biweekly meetings set up to complete the Finance <br />Committee presentations so that submittal to the full City Council will be in June of 2000 as part <br />of the annual revision of the City's fee structure. <br />Performance Indicators/Identifiable Milestones: <br />1) Completion of the Finance Committee review. <br />2) Council discussion on the City's rate and fee schedule adjustments during the budget process. <br />Fiscal Impacts: <br />• The study cost the City $70,000. <br />• Should Council choose to implement the study recommendations, there is potential new <br />revenue to the City of $407,000. <br />g:Wcptyo \--evaltesp -- 11-wpy.d- 8 rev. 12/15/99 <br />
