RECREATION<br />
budgeted for that year.<br />
Supplies<br />
The proposed budget is $90,341<br />
(24%) greater than 2015-16<br />
estimates. This is due to the <strong>2016</strong>-<br />
17 budget reflecting full program<br />
participation as well as increased<br />
supply needs so the <strong>Park</strong> <strong>District</strong><br />
can continue to offer high quality<br />
programs requiring supplies be<br />
kept up to date. Prior year end<br />
estimate is lower than what was<br />
budgeted for that year.<br />
Intergovernmental - WSRA<br />
The <strong>Park</strong> <strong>District</strong> annually<br />
contributes 75% of its Recreation<br />
for Handicapped tax levy to the<br />
Warren Special Recreation<br />
Association (WSRA). Also, the<br />
<strong>Park</strong> <strong>District</strong> pays WSRA for<br />
inclusion services provided by<br />
WSRA for program participation.<br />
This year that amount is<br />
budgeted to be $350,980 which is<br />
a slight increase compared to<br />
2015-16 estimate. The higher<br />
budget amount is due to the<br />
slight increase of the <strong>Park</strong> <strong>District</strong><br />
EAV.<br />
Capital Outlay<br />
Capital Outlay is significantly<br />
($156,092) higher than the 2015-<br />
16 year end estimate. This is<br />
mainly due to budgeted<br />
equipment replacement at<br />
FitNation and ADA<br />
improvements that were<br />
originally scheduled for 2015-16<br />
that have been carried over for<br />
completion in <strong>2016</strong>-17.<br />
Debt Service<br />
The proposed budget is equal to<br />
prior year end estimates to<br />
account for the FitNation bonds<br />
repayment schedule. All bonds<br />
used for the purchase and<br />
rehabilitation of the FitNation<br />
facility as well as the fitness<br />
operations portion of the Hunt<br />
Club <strong>Park</strong> Community Center<br />
bonds are paid directly out of<br />
revenue generated from fitness<br />
operations.<br />
Other<br />
Other expenditures are<br />
budgeted $34,698 (7%) more<br />
than 2015-16 year end<br />
estimates. This is due to<br />
recreation programs budgeted<br />
at maximum participation and<br />
minimal cancellations due to<br />
low enrollment or weather<br />
conditions. The prior year end<br />
estimate is lower than what was<br />
budgeted for that year. In<br />
addition to marketing and<br />
banking fees, expenditures<br />
classified as “other” include<br />
items such as travel<br />
expenditures, training and<br />
recruitment expenditures, staff<br />
recognition and scholarships.<br />
Overall -<br />
The total budgeted revenue is<br />
$814,552 (11%) higher than 2015-<br />
16 year end estimates mostly<br />
due to the change in Fees and<br />
Charges outlined above. Total<br />
budgeted expenditures are<br />
$671,614 (10%) higher than 2015-<br />
16 year end estimates. Total net<br />
results for the Recreations area<br />
are budgeted to increase<br />
$142,934 (8%) in <strong>2016</strong>-17<br />
compared to 2015-16 year end<br />
estimates.<br />
Being located in northern<br />
Illinois, weather can significantly<br />
affect participation levels in<br />
many programs. We budget for<br />
maximum participation on the<br />
expenditure side as a prudent<br />
way to maintain conservatism in<br />
budget estimates.<br />
