<br />.. <br /> <br />GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Provides for the cleaning of city administration office space and the <br />maintenance of most city owned facilities. <br /> <br />Provides for the partial financing of the city hall facility, which was <br />constructed in 1992-93. <br /> <br />2000 BUDGET COMPARED WITH 1999 BUDGET <br /> <br />This departmental budget is: <br /> <br />- Proposed in the amount of $155,350; <br />- A $20,950 or 15.6% increase compared to the adopted 1999 budget; <br />- Approximately 2.65% of the total general fund expenditures. <br /> <br />The most significant increase in this budget for 2000 is in the personal <br />services category. An additional half time employee is proposed to be added <br />to the staff. The personal services category is proposed to increase $18,350, <br />which is the majority of this budget increase. In 2000, the government . <br />building staff will total 1.5 employees. Approximately 67 percent of the <br />expenses for these employees is charged to this government buildings budget <br />and the other 33 percent is charged to the library for services rendered. The <br />two main reasons for the employee addition is for a suitable back-up for <br />cleaning services when the full time employee is gone for such things as <br />conferences, workshops, vacation or sick time, and also to allow the full time <br />employee to concentrate more on building maintenance and preventive <br />maintenance activities and less on cleaning activities. The city building <br />maintenance employee is Sue Herrboldt and she has been with the city since <br />mid 1998. <br /> <br />The largest expenditure in this budget is the transfer out for payment of part <br />of the city hall-police station lease/purchase plan. The total annual debt <br />service for this facility is in the $270,000 range so this budgeted transfer out <br />for building debt is only a small part of the total annual payment. The last <br />payment on the facility takes place in February 2011. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />28 <br />
