Information <br /> J� <br /> City of <br /> Elk Memorandum <br /> River <br /> TO: Mayor and City Council <br /> From: Jesse Dorn,Assistant Finance Director <br /> Date: May 21, 2018 <br /> Subject: April 2018 Monthly Financial Report <br /> This report is designed to provide summary information regarding the overall level of <br /> revenues and expenditures in the General Fund, the Ice Arena and Pinewood Golf Special <br /> Revenue Funds, and the Enterprise Funds. These funds provide an important picture of the <br /> city's financial health. <br /> For the month of April, actual revenues (excluding property taxes and transfers in) and <br /> expenditures should run about 33% of the annual budget. It is natural for some of the items <br /> to vary from month to month, such as exceeding budget for Supplies but being below budget <br /> for Services. This is not considered serious as long as the total expenditure budget amount is <br /> not overspent. Significant variances from budget are highlighted below accompanied with a <br /> general discussion for the variance. <br /> GENERAL FUND <br /> Revenues: <br /> ■ Excluding property taxes and transfers in,revenue collections are 25% of budget. The <br /> first half property taxes will be received in June/July and the majority of transfers in <br /> will be recorded mid-year. <br /> ■ Licenses and permits collections are 21% of budget,with the anticipation that building <br /> permits will pick up with the start of the construction season.. <br /> ■ Charges for services are 38% of budget estimates,most of which comes from the fire <br /> and school liaison contracts. <br /> ■ Fines and forfeits collections are 23% of budget estimate,with court fine collections <br /> lagging a month. <br /> NAWREJ <br />
