Budget Amendments ModifiedMEMORANDUM
July 3, 2003
TO:
The Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
SUBJECT: Modified Budget Amendment Recommendation
Following the June 23, 2003 City Council Work Session on the Fiscal Year 2004
recommended budget amendment to deal with increased health care costs and the
almost $1.2 million in state cuts to city revenues, additional research and refinement of
the available information continued.
Administrative Service Manager Pauline Joyce was in contact with Dubuque County
Auditor Denise Dolan regarding the formula that would be used for applying the State
mandated reduction in Homestead Tax Credit. A shortfall in City revenues of $86,707
was estimated from the State cutback. Auditor Dolan reported that Senate File 458
which reduced the funding of Homestead Credit to 85%, Military Tax Credit to 98% and
Eidedy Credit to 40% provided for the County to pass these reductions on to the
taxpayers as provided for in the iowa Code 25.B.7. She noted that Dubuque cities and
County will not be impacted by the State's action on property tax credits. This changes
the projected shortfall due to State actions from $1,157,132 to $1,070,425 or $86,707 in
additional funding.
The Summary of Decision Packages Recommended by Fund that was presented to City
Council was missing the non-union wage package adjustments to the non-tax funds. By
including these changes in the summary, there are certain decision packages in the
non-tax funds that are no longer required to keep those funds in balance.
Finally, Pauline Joyce compared notes with City Clerk Jeanne Schneider and Assistant
City Manager Cindy Steinhauser to create a comprehensive list of those items which
received four votes to be brought back to City Council at the July 9 public hearing. That
list also includes responses to follow-up questions on particular items. These items are
noted Follow-up Only as they did not receive four votes.
I am respectfully recommending the following changes to my previous Fiscal Year 2004
budget amendment documents be included in the July 9 Public Hearing:
Instead of increasing the paratransit (minibus) fare from $1 to $2.50, increase it
from $1 to $2.
Reinstate $114,087 in funding to the Library. This will reduce hours from 69 to
65 instead of 50, thereby preserving accreditation and saving the positions
proposed for elimination.
Fund these changes with the additional revenue soumes I have identified
(Homestead Tax Credit) and an additional $43,400 from the Reserve Fund for a
total Reserve fund drawdown of $95,501 in FY 2004 (This will need to be
replenished in the FY 2005 budget.)
4. The modifications in non-General Fund expenditures include the following:
Water Operating Fund
· Only reduce hydrant replacement funding by $8,200, instead of
$19,500
Refuse Fund
· Avoid increasing appliance pick-up fee from $10 to $14
Landfill Fund
· Increase cost to Agency by $4,245, instead of $10,765
Lead Paint Grant
· Avoid shifting of $2,000 in vehicle costs
The following cuts would be avoided entirely:
Sewer Fund
· Reduce subscriptions and travel - $2,465
· Reduce overtime and eliminate cross training - $5,616
UDAG Funds
· Reduce DALMC contract - $717
CDBG Funds
· Reduce education and training for Economic Development - $2,500
· Reduce rehab activity supplies - $1,470
· Reduce administrative supplies and services - $1,397
· Eliminate Rental Unit Survey - $6,000
Cable TV Funds
· Reduce property maintenance- $312
· Reduce membership expense - $531
· Reduce machinery/equipment rental - $726
· Eliminate promotional activities - $687
· Reduce subscriptions-S2,300
· Eliminate City Expo - $9,000

MEMORANDUM
July 3, 2003
TO:
FROM:
SUBJECT:
Michael C.Van Milligen, City Manager
Pauline Joyce, Administrative Services Manager
Follow-u p Material for July 9 Public Hearing
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide follow-up matedal from the June 23 City
Council budget work session, as well as some update information for City Council.
Following the June 23 City Council work session, I was in contact with County Auditor
Denise Dolan regarding the formula that would be used for applying the State mandated
reduction in Homestead Tax Credit. I had estimated a shortfall in City revenues of
$86,707 from the State cutback. Denise stated that Senate File 458 which reduced the
funding of Homestead Credit to 85%, Military Tax Credit to 98% and Eldedy Credit to
40% provided for the County to pass these reductions on to the taxpayers as provided
for in the Iowa Code 25.B.7. Denise noted that Dubuque cities and County will not be
impacted by the State's action on property tax credits. This changes the projected
shortfall due to State actions from $1,157,132 to $1,070,425 or $86,707 in additional
funding that could be used to address any one of the tax supported items City Council
identified at their June 26th work session.
We also received word from the Library that the State funding of $35,000 that was
anticipated to be lost in FY 2005 due to the loss of accreditation, will not occur in FY
2005 per the State. A copy of the notification they received is attached (Attachment 1)
The Summary of Decision Packages Recommended by Fund that was presented to City
Council was m~ssing the non-union wage package adjustments to the non-Tax funds. I
missed picking up these figures from another spreadsheet. By including these changes
in the summary, there are certain decision packages in the non-tax funds that are no
longer required to keep those funds in balance, have indicated the changes m
resources discussed in paragraph one above and the recommended changes in the
non-property tax supported decision packages in Attachment 2.
City Council also asked for a summary of the status of the positions that are being
recommended for elimination or reduction from FT to PT status. Personnel Manager
Randy Peck prepared Attachment 3 in response to this request. I took Randy's
information and broke it down to indicate the dollar impact by fund for vacant versus
filled positions. It is important to note that although the position being eliminated isn't
vacant, there may currently be vacancies within the department or City organization that
the employee could apply for and initiation of the retirement incentive will hopefully
create opportunities for these employees either directly or indirectly as other employees
get reassigned.
Finally, I compared notes with City Clerk Jeanne Schneider and Assistant City Manager
Cindy Steinhauser to create a comprehensive list of those items which received four
votes to be brought back to City Council at the July 9 public hearing (Attachment 4).
That list also includes responses to follow-up questions on particular items. These
items are noted Follow-up Only as they did not receive four votes.
The resolution for adoption of the budget amendment is the final attachment to this
memo (Attachment 5).

Library Accreditation
Attachment i
The State Library Commission has issued a one-year moratorium on reporting for
accreditation purposes. The purpose of this decision is co provide cities and libraries
in Iowa the opportunity co continue co work on budgets. At tke same time the State Library
is forming a standards committee which will be reviewing the 88 standards of service, It
is possible ~he minimum level of hours can move dow~ from 64, however the State Librarian
assured me today the standard would never go ~s low as 50 hours. The goal of the State
Library is to kave the review of standards complete by ~he end of FY '04.
This means the Carnegie-Stout Library will received sca~e aid in '04 (because iu ~s
based on '03 FY) and in '05.

CITY OF DUBUQUE, IOWA
MEMORANDUM
June 24. 2003
Pauline Joyce, Administrative Services Manager
Mark Munson, Transit Manager
Council requested budget information
Attachment D
PURPOSE
At the special session held by the City Council Monday June 23, 2003, several
members of the council requested additional information concerning the proposed
changes in the FY 2004 Tra nsit budget. The following is a summary of the requested
information:
Ridership Attrition History
The last time the City Council increased fares without any concurrent changes in the
service (route reductions, increased headways), was in 1996 when the fixed route
general fares were increased from $0.80 to $1.00, half fares from $0.40 to $0.50 and
ADA paratransit from $0.80 to $1.00. The attrition in ridership after these fare increases
was 7%. In 1991 and lg92, fares were increased, routes were eliminated and
headways were increased from half hour to hourly which resulted in much higner
attritions.
Staff has estimated ridership attrition for the proposed fare increases at 15% and feels
very confident in this estimate. Also, the current KeyLine ridership is somewhat captive
as opposed to the ridership makeup of 10 years ago when more riders by choice used
the service.
Fare Increase
I have conducted a brief survey of Iowa transit systems and their current fixed route and
ADA paratransit fare structures to assist council in selecting a satisfactory rate for
Dubuque. KeyLine offers door to door service to persons with disabilities and seniors
over age 60. It bears noting that the City of Dubuque's cost per ride for fixed route
service is $3.36 and $5.78 for paratransit (Based on FY 2002 statistics). Dubuque offers
more than required ADA paratransit service at the full fare fixed route rate. ADA
provides a ceiling of 2 times the full fare fixed route rate
City Fixed Route Full Rate
Ames $0.75
Cedar Rapids $1.00
Dubuque $1.00
Iowa City $0.75
Sioux City $1.25
Waterloo $1.50
ADA Paratransit Rate
$1.50 (1)
$2.00
$1,00
$1.50
$2.25 (2)
$3.00 (3)
(1)
(2)
(3)
This service is only for persons with disabilities not seniors
This rate is curb to curb. Door to Door is $7.25 per ride
This service is only curb to curb
In response to your question, if the City increases the paratransit fare from $1 to $2
instead of $2.50, the likely increased revenue will be $36,160 instead of $54,240
(difference of $18,080).
Additional Revenue and Expense Alternatives ($3,000))
· The Transit system could charge $40.00 per hour to all other departments for
transportation service for tours conventions etc. Based on last year's requests
this could add approximately $1,000 in additional revenue to the Transit budget.
KeyLine's service agreement with RouteMatch software could be reduced by
$2,000 (from $6,000 to $4,000) due to delays in software implementation. Staff
could also consult with peer systems for technical assistance and utilize current
nformation Services support service contract on a limited basis for some
software related issues.

28E Agreement for Emergency Communication Center
The purpose of this memorandum is to respond to concerns regarding the City's ability
to make the recommended changes outlined for the Emergency Communication Center.
Those change include a $20 fee for preparation of tapes, discontinuing Ride-Along
training and shifting maintenance of CAD software over to the 911 surcharge.
The Public Safety Committee is established under the 28E agreement to manage and
administer the Center. The Committee is charged with establishing the operating
procedu res for the Center and meets monthly to provide direction and oversight
necessary for the effective operation of the Center. This Committee, at their June 4
meeting, reviewed and approved the decision packages presented by Sandi Hutchcroft,
including the discontinuance of Ride-Along training, $20 fee for tapes and shifting of
CAD software maintenance costs to the 911 surcharge.
The E911 Service Board meets once a year in January. The E911 Board authorized
the Public Safety Committee to deal with day to day operating decisions for the board
and to approve 911 surcharge expenditures. The Committee approved the use of
surcharge funds for CAD software maintenance and this, along with other surcharge
expenditures that have been approved by the Committee during the year, will be
presented to the full E911 Board in January, 2004 for amending their budget.

Re: Review of Budget Cut Recommendations
In response to the City Council's questions regarding accreditation for the Carnegie Stout
Public Library, I have attached a summary of staffing requirements. This table indicates
that at 69 hours the library should have 34 FTE; w~ currently have 20.5 FTE. To
continue as an accredited library, hoars of operation should not go below 64 hoars.
At 64 hours the library would need all existing staff (20.5 FTE.) If the five-hoar cut were
taken by closing on Sundays, a savings of $12,778 in overtime wages could be realized.
Also attached is an itemized list by line item of proposed cuts which a City Council
member asked to review. The recommendation to cut the Americorps worker represents
a savings of $4,160. Tkis covers one full-time employee. Another option would be to
hire a part-time Americorps worker at $1800 per year.
