FY2014 Recommended Budget - City of Surprise

Fire Department
General Fund Summary
Major Budget Changes
The FY2014 budget increased by 3.79% from the FY2013 amended budget.
Personnel expenditures were impacted by a 3% increase in the employer contribution for the Public
Safety Retirement System and a 2.2% increase for a cost of living adjustment. In addition, the allowance
for uniforms increased by $200 per employee as a result of Meet and Confer negotiations. The increase
was partially offset by a transfer of overtime to two new special revenue funds.
Non-personnel costs increased 18%. This was primarily due to increases in service agreements to
complete mandatory testing and maintenance, which was previously performed by a position eliminated
in FY2013; increases necessary due to mandatory regional wireless conversion maintenance; and
additional maintenance required on three aging cascade systems.
