AGENDA ITEM #3

DATE: April 26, 2012

SUBJECT: DRAFT GENERAL ASSESSMENT

PREPARED BY: Andrew Jackson

BACKGROUND: As we approach the next MAG budget cycle staff has produced a Draft General Assessment table for the MAG general fund. We used the same rate of 25 cents per capita that we have used in past years. The attached table identifies the 2010 Census population used to determine the draft assessment for FY-2013.

The table does include some special assessments for studies or other work your community may be involved in with MAG.

Staff wanted to get this information to the member jurisdictions as soon as possible so you will have a figure to work with when you do your budgets.

RECOMMENDATION: This item is for information only, however, staff would like to receive a recommendation to move forward in our budgeting process with a general fund assessment figure.

SUGGESTED MOTION: Information Only
