City Manager’s Column
CM Goal: Deliver right-sized, balanced GF Budget
Right-size challenging, many combinations, discussions and calculations led to recommendation, with already reduced workforce.
Forced to include Core cuts, these very hard to deliver without crippling vital services or requiring wholesale change of service models impractical to implement for FY 2012/13.
Cannot deliver services without further employee compensation contributions.
CM Recommended Achieves
Deficit of ($581,311) RESOLVED:
Concessions through Negotiations/New MOU’s
Represents about 5%
Gains ability of GF to start FY 2013/14 year w/o structural deficit
Cost of employees and supplies aligned with projected revenue growth
If further revenue loss occurs, $1.7 Million portion is resolved

14 FTE Positions ( 13.47) :
