Reserve Fund to the Park Dedication Fund and will be repaid from future park dedication revenues. The <br /> Park Dedication Fund was also committed to half of the Pinewood payment in 2016;however park <br /> dedication revenues in recent years have been insufficient to cover its share of the payment so an <br /> additional internal loan from the GRE Reserve Fund will be provided. <br /> GRE Reserve Fund <br /> RDF Payment—We receive an annual payment for hosting the RDF plant based on the annual municipal <br /> solid waste processed. The cash forecast assumes the RDF plant continues operation and the payment <br /> remains at the current level. Council identified this fund for the other half of the Pinewood payment. The <br /> GRE Reserve Fund will be used to provide interim financing to the Park Dedication Fund until park <br /> dedication revenues are sufficient to repay the internal loan. <br /> This fund can also be used as a potential ongoing funding source for beautification-related projects such as <br /> wayfinding signage,boulevards, and development monument signs. <br /> Peaking Plant Payment—From 2010 through 2014 the city received payment from GRE for hosting the <br /> peaking plant. This amount is tracked separately in the GRE Reserve Fund and has been used for several <br /> one-time capital expenditures such as Ice Arena bond payoff, downtown parking lot acquisition, Bailey <br /> Point grant match, and recently for Rivers Edge Park. <br /> Government Building Fund <br /> Covers building construction and maintenance,landscaping, and remodeling projects for municipal <br /> buildings.
