<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Departmental Expenditure Summary: <br /> <br /> At this point the City is one month or 50.00% through the budget year. It is important to remember that <br /> expenditures do not occur equally throughout the year. For example, capital expenditures and <br /> association memberships are one time expenditures that if made early in the fiscal year can produce a <br /> distorted expenditure percentage. Within the General and Water & Sewer Funds there are four <br /> departments whose expenditures are over 50.00% at this time. <br /> <br /> 1. Police-50.22%. The overage amounts to $11,626 and is statistically insignificant. <br /> 2. EMS-50.49%. The overage amounts to $10,612 and is statistically insignificant. <br /> 3. Cox Field-62.49%. The overage amounts to $14,167 and is due to the additional TXDOT match <br /> requirement on the airport runway grant. <br /> <br /> 4. Warehouse-53.23%. The overage amounts to $4,033 and is due to the purchase of a pickup for <br /> that department. <br /> General comments to the City Council: <br /> <br /> 1. Over 99% of all of the City operational activity takes place in the General Fund or the Water and <br /> Sewer Fund. The other funds are special purpose funds with limited activity and usually with <br /> legal restrictions on what their money can be spent on. For that reason, I normally only <br /> comment on the activity of the General Fund and Water & Sewer Fund. However, if it were <br /> needed, I would make comment on activity in one of the other funds. <br /> 2. 1 try to anticipate questions you might have about the report and comment on those points. <br /> After you receive your packet and review the monthly report, if you have questions about the <br /> report, please let the Manager know (or me if you can't reach the Manager) before the Council <br /> meeting if possible in case I have to research the answer to your question. That does not <br /> prevent you from asking the question at the meeting if you wish to make a point, but it does <br /> help prevent questions coming up that I can't answer on the spot and possibly delaying the <br /> Council in making a decision. <br /> 3. The activity of the Health Department and Paris Economic Development Corporation is reflected <br /> in the monthly report. This is a result of the City performing the bookkeeping functions for both <br /> of these groups. Both groups have their own managing board. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 17 <br />
