Significant Changes From FY 2013 Budget
Budget
 The FY 2014 Recommended General Fund Budget of $38,823,622 is $12,560 or 0.0003
percent lower than the FY 2013 Revised Budget. The decrease is the result of
Managed Savings of $470,000 that is planned for the upcoming year as well as the
transfer of 2.00 FTEs from the General Fund to the Building Services fund. General
Liability decreased significantly as a large, prior claim is now concluded. Services and
Supplies decreased by 11.7 percent due to the removal of one-time, grant-related
expenditures and by moving funds to begin equipment replacement funding and an
additional $185,000 of reductions in Services & Supplies. All additional changes are the
result of non-discretionary cost calculations for contract related personnel expenses and
Internal Service charges.
Personnel
 A total of 178.50 FTEs are included in the FY 2014 Recommended General Fund
Budget. This is a decrease of 2.00 FTEs that represent two plan-check staff whose
salaries will be charged directly to the Building Services fund instead of the General
Fund. These two positions will still report to the Fire Chief.
