Submitted By Reviewed By Budget Manager/ Assistant City Manager Assistant to the City Manager DESCRIPTION: As part of the Fiscal Year 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 Budget Study Session, the City Council has received background information related to the fiscal trends that will influence the upcoming two-year budget and beyond. The second component of the Study Session is focused on obtaining more specific direction from the City Council on issues to be evaluated as part of the preparation of the Fiscal Year 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 Budget. Staff is approaching the preparation of the Fiscal Year 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 Budget with continued optimism. However, while fiscal conditions within the City and elsewhere are Page 1 of 3 ITEM NO. 8.4 improving, there is still considerable uncertainty in the financial markets, and the local impact of the State budget crisis remains unknown. As outlined in the prior report about long-term fiscal sustainability, specific economic conditions such as the global economic crisis and fuel costs are expected to suppress rapid economic growth in the coming year. Additionally, the City's ongoing operational and maintenance expenses are expected to continue to grow in areas such as utilities, facility and park maintenance as a result of new projects coming on line, and other service areas that are necessary to keep pace with growth. Fiscal Prioritization In December 2010, the City Council approved a new format for the budget development process. The City Council determined that the Strategic Plan would serve as the primary driver for future budget development. The intent is that funding allocations should align with the identified overarching strategic priorities established by the City Council. Those priority initiatives that are more routine-in-nature and do not fit into the Strategic Plan are incorporated into the City Manager's Work Plan as operational initiatives. For reference, the City Council's Strategic Priorities are identified below. City of Dublin Ten Year Strategic Plan - Adopted Strategies (FY 2011-2012 Update): 1. Pursue economic development initiatives that attract new businesses while strengthening existing businesses. 2. Continue to strengthen the identity and aesthetic appeal of the downtown. 3. Create a community that supports environmental sustainability and provides an open space network that ensures environmental protection and provides public access where appropriate. 4. Develop dynamic and unique community recreational and cultural opportunities in the region. 5. Develop City-wide communication and outreach programs that provide connectivity with our residents and businesses across several media outlets. In addition to becoming more strategic within the budget process, work has commenced to establish alonger-term approach and outlook to further the City's fiscal sustainability efforts, including the creation of a two-year budget beginning with Fiscal Years 2012-2013 and 2013- 2014. Over the past three years, City Staff have also completed core service identification work and outreach with the community. A comprehensive review of services was completed in order to identify those core services that the City is providing and confirm that the community agrees with those priorities. Operating Budget Similar to the past several years, Staff has provided the City Council with a Budget Issues Worksheet (Attachment 1) for Fiscal Year 2012-2013 and 2013-2014. The purpose of this worksheet is to assist the City Council in establishing a framework for preparation of the Preliminary Budget. The Preliminary Budget will be considered at the Budget Hearing on June 19, 2012. Exhibit A to Attachment 1 identifies the Key Initiatives that Staff recommends be undertaken in the upcoming two-year budget cycle. For reference the status of Fiscal Year 2011-2012 Budget Initiatives as of December 31, 2012 has been attached (Exhibit B). The proposed initiatives align with the City Council Strategic Plan and are instrumental in accomplishing the Plan's Mission, Vision & Values (Strategic Plan attached as reference -Exhibit C). Other initiatives are operational in nature (do not have direct alignment with the Strategic Plan) but are core to Page 2 of 3 the City's ongoing service delivery, will enhance services and operational efficiency, or may have a significant fiscal impact. The Worksheet also includes a section where the City Council can propose additional initiatives for consideration during the budget process. Those new initiatives generated by the City Council or Staff that have been preliminarily approved at this meeting will be brought back to the City Council for further consideration at the next Budget Study Session scheduled for Wednesday, April 18, 2012. At that meeting, the City Council will be provided with additional information about the proposals including financial and organizational impacts. The City Council will then be asked to identify those items they would like included in the Preliminary Fiscal Year 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 Budget for final consideration at the Budget Hearing on June 19, 2012. Capital Projects Similar to the Worksheet sections discussing the Operating Budget, the Budget Issues Worksheet has a section related to identifying adjustments to Capital Projects. With the anticipated continuation of limited revenues, Staff expects that the schedules for Capital Projects will require careful consideration and prioritization. A list of projects included in the current Five Year Capital Improvement Program (Update) is attached to the Worksheet (Exhibit D). CONCLUSION: It is suggested that, prior to the Budget Study Session, the City Council take the following actions: • Review the Fiscal Year 2011-2012 Budget; • Review the Five Year Capital Improvement Program 2012-2017; and • Complete the Budget Issues Worksheet, including Exhibit A (Key Initiatives -Proposed) and bring the Worksheet to the City Council meeting for discussion purposes. The City Manager will lead the City Council through a discussion of the Budget Issues Worksheet and Proposed Initiatives. The City Council is requested to provide consensus and direction on the identified topic areas in order to proceed with the budget preparation process for Fiscal Year 2012-2013 and 2013-2014. NOTICING REQUIREMENTS/PUBLIC OUTREACH: None. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Budget Issues Worksheet, Fiscal Year 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 2. Exhibit A -Key Initiatives -Proposed FY 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 3.

Exhibit D -Capital Improvement Project Excerpt (2010-2015 Update) Page 3 of 3 City Council Budget Issues Worksheet Fiscal Year 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 Information about the City's current economic outlook and need to establish long-term fiscal sustainability has been detailed throughout this and the previous report. As development continues and infrastructure grows, the City's annual operating and maintenance costs will continue to rise, thereby creating greater dependency on the General Fund. Focusing now on creating a budget model that can sustain quality service delivery into the future is essential to preserving the community's quality of life. The City Manager is seeking specific direction from the City Council in order to move forward with the budget preparation process. Below is a list of budgetary areas that require City Council input and direction in order to provide the City Manager with information to formalize and execute a balanced budget for the upcoming two-year budget cycle, Fiscal Years 2012-2013 and 2013-2014. 1. Operating Expenditures Staff Proposed Actions to Balance the Budget In an effort to develop a balanced budget over the past four years and enhance long-term fiscal sustainability, the following actions were taken: • Restructuring and streamlining of organization to meet current and future business needs; • Deferment or elimination of select General Fund Capital Projects; • Reduction of operations and hours for City buildings and facilities; • Reduction and adjustment of operational and programmatic service levels to meet community service demands; • Utilization of Economic Stability Reserves to prepare a balanced budget; • Employment of long-term cost containment through service contract negotiations; For FY 2012-2013 and 2013-2014, Staff proposes to continue to look for additional organizational efficiencies in order to maintain the current level of service for the public. However, if additional measures are necessary to develop a balance budget for FY 2012-2013 and 2013-2014, Staff proposes that one or more of the following solutions be implemented: • Further restructuring of the organization to meet current and future business needs and alignment with the Strategic Plan; • Consideration of additional deferrals of General Fund Capital Projects to later years; • Continued streamlining of operational service levels; • Consideration of revenue enhancements; • Utilization of Economic Stability Reserves, if necessary. Does the City Council support the proposed actions/steps to develop a balanced budget? YES or NO (please circle one) Service Level Chanaes For the purpose of developing the Fiscal Year 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 Operating Budgets, are there service level modifications, including reduction, elimination, or enhancement of any services or projects, that the City Council would like Staff to evaluate? YES or NO (please circle one) Suggestions for Service Level Changes /Items to be Evaluated: Initiatives for Fiscal Year 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 To the extent the proposed Fiscal Year 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 Key Initiatives related to the Strategic Plan or City Manager Operational Work Plan require additional resources not included in the current baseline budget, should Staff explore costs and impacts associated with the initiatives listed in Exhibit A. Additional cost and impact information on the identified Key Initiatives will be brought forward at the April 18, 2012 Budget Study Session for further consideration and potential inclusion in the Preliminary Budget. YES or NO (please circle one) 2. RESERVES If necessary, should the use of Reserves be inclusive of operating costs, as well as capital costs and/or other one-time expenditures. YES or NO (please circle one) 3. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM Charts provided in the attached Excerpt Summary Tables from the Five Year Capital Improvement Program 2010-2015 (Fiscal Year 2011-2012 Update) include a summary of the capital improvements adopted as part of the City's current Capital Improvement Program. Staff will be preparing a new Capital Improvement Program for the next five years (2012-2017) and may need to recommend timing and adjustments of projects in order to align them with available funding for both construction and ongoing operations. These recommendations will also take into consideration whether the project is essential to the protection of public health and safety, preservation of infrastructure, and other priority factors. Of those projects currently identified in the Five-Year Capital Improvement Program, are there any desired adjustment of projects which should be considered for funding? YES or NO (please circle one) Desired Adjustments to Five-Year Capital Improvement Program for Fiscal Years 2012- 2017: Fiscal Year 2012-2013 & 2013-2014 Key Initiatives -Proposed Program -General Government #
