the City limits. The City has granted franchise fees for electric, natural gas and commercial solid waste. <br />Franchise and utility fees related to electric sales account for the majority of these revenue sources. <br />Intergovernmental Revenue (Sales and Gas Tax) - $2.41VI <br />The State allocates 1.3409% of sales and use tax revenues, net collections from the one -cent municipal <br />fuel tax on motor fuel, and 12.5% of state alternative fuel user decal fee collections to fund the <br />Municipal Revenue Sharing Program. This State program began its decline in FY 2006/07, reflecting an <br />average decrease of 4.1% for a five year period. However, slight recovery has been reflected in the <br />current fiscal year and the Proposed Budget conservatively assumes a slight increase ($43,875) over the <br />prior year. The intergovernmental revenues make up 13% of the General Fund revenues. <br />Charges for Services - $873,857 <br />A substantial portion of these fees relate to Ambulance Fees (ALS). In the summer of 2009 the <br />Commission approved a rate increase for this charge for service. A recent comparative analysis of ALS <br />rates reveals that City rates are still very low and are recommended for revision. Additionally, Seminole <br />County is considering a rate increase. City staff incorporated a proposed new fee structure and the <br />increase in revenues is reflected in the FY 12 budget. Further adjustments may be required after <br />Seminole County reveals its new rate structure as a part of their budget cycle. <br />Interfund Transfers - $2.7M <br />Cost recovery transfers reflect strategic costs associated with the management, finance, and accounting <br />services provided and paid by the General Fund to other departments. These transfers include the <br />following: Solid Waste Fund - $200,000, Stormwater Fund - $137,000, Building Safety Fund - $23,000. <br />Transfers related to the Water & Sewer System include a cost recovery transfer of $1,172,100, and a <br />Utility Investment Transfer, $1,051,456, for the vested interest in the Utility System that the City <br />maintains. The Utility Investment Transfer is calculated based on assumptions utilized in the February <br />16, 2009 water rate study. <br />WATER & SEWER UTILITY FUND <br />MgN <br />CASSELBERRY <br />The second largest fund of the City is the Water & Sewer Utility Fund. The proposed budget for this <br />fund is $14,096,984, indicating an overall decrease of $58,569. <br />The most significant operating expenditure includes the operating and maintenance charges of the Iron <br />Bridge at the Water Reclamation facility for approximately $1,100,000. <br />A-9 <br />:l'�✓,''�ee <br />�U <br />�.,o 9n' 9 ^ <br />' <br />'• <br />4�`�` <br />FY 2010/11 <br />FY 2011/2012 <br />Variance <br />Expenditure by Type: <br />Personal Services <br />$ <br />2,965,685 <br />$ <br />2,942,372 <br />$ <br />(23,313) <br />Operating <br />$ <br />5,000,225 <br />$ <br />5,153,868 <br />$ <br />153,643 <br />Capital Improvements <br />$ <br />1,645,000 <br />$ <br />1,429,350 <br />$ <br />(215,650) <br />Debt Service/Transfers <br />$ <br />4,544,643 <br />$ <br />4,571,394 <br />$ <br />26,751 <br />Total <br />$ <br />14,155,553 <br />$ <br />14,096,984 <br />$ <br />(58,569) <br />The most significant operating expenditure includes the operating and maintenance charges of the Iron <br />Bridge at the Water Reclamation facility for approximately $1,100,000. <br />A-9 <br />
