The fiscal year 2011 Total $ 61,216,038 $ 52,622,475 -14% budget reflects the administration’s efforts to cut costs, as expenditures in the General Fund are budgeted at $52.6 million for the current year. The chart on this page shows the comparison between the previous and current fiscal year expenditure budgets on a departmental basis. The administration is hopeful that once agreements are reached on the various union contracts, additional cost savings will be achieved, not only for the current year but for future years as well. As noted in the previous Taylor Info article, negotiating cost savings in the area of employee fringe benefits is critical to reducing the biggest part of the budget. However, with one-third of the budget year already gone, it’s likely that the city will need to dip into some of its savings from the prior year to offset some potential cost overruns. The city has yet to see any anticipated savings in health care or compensated absences, and costs for pensions are expected to continue to rise. With revenues continuing to drop and costs increasing in some areas, the administration understands that, without increases to productivity and efficiency, services to the residents may suffer.
