The expenditure projections reflected above include the adopted Deficit Reductions
Options (DRO) approved by Council as the “Three-Year Deficit Elimination Plan” on
April 19, 2011. The General Fund expenditures reflect the FY 2010/11 budget “rolled
forward” as a base for the new FY 2011/12 budget, with the first year of DRO’s applied
against the new “base budget”. This combination of City Council approved plans is
melded to create the first year of the Proposed Operating Budget for the General Fund.
The second year of the two-year budget (FY 2012/13) takes the “year 1” budget and
applies the second year of DRO’s against this base to yield the proposed second year
of the two-year budget modified by cost increases described later in this message.
Projected General Fund Operating Deficit for FY 2011/12
City staff began the budget process in November 2010 by projecting an ongoing
expenditure budget of approximately $84 million for FY 2011/12, while revenues were
projected to grow from the current low point of $68 million to $70 million in the General
Fund. Working with the City Council, a strategy was developed that would require the
budget to be based on rolling forward the current budget and service levels with no
changes assumed. City Council and staff could then forge a plan to address the deficit
that, once defined and approved, could be applied against the base budget to create the
next two-year general fund budget. This created the basis for addressing the structural
deficit of $14 million through the Three-Year Deficit Elimination Plan approved by City
Council on April 19, 2011.
