Significant Line Items at Maintenance Level
Employee Expense
1.The Iowa Public Employee Retirement System (IPERS) City contribution remains at 8.93% and
the employee contribution remains at 6.18% in FY 2017.
Supplies & Services
2.FY 2017 includes $3,090 per City Council member ($21,630) for conferences, meetings and
travel and $4,800 for the Mayor for conference travel, including attendance at the US
Conference of Mayors meetings. It is believed that greater expectations for regional, state and
federal cooperation include some level of participation in the following: National League of
Cities, Iowa League of Cities, Iowa Department of Economic Development SMART Conference,
Iowa League Legislative Days, and other meetings that occur on issues or initiatives throughout
the year.
Travel City Business expense is budgeted at $1,000 per Council Member. This represents City
business mileage reimbursement.
3.FY 2017 includes $500 per City Council member ($3,500) for Education and Training. This is
needed with the ever-changing regulations, technologies and methods for community success.
It becomes even more necessary as new City Council members are elected.

4.Dues and Memberships increased from $15,597 in FY 2016 to $17,089 in FY 2017 based on
actual cost of memberships to Iowa League of Cities ($11,820) and U.S. Conference of Mayors
($5,269).
5.Internet Services decreased from $5,360 in FY 2016 to $1,000 in FY 2017 due to a new
contract negotiated for data plans for tablets which reduced the monthly cost from $40 per
month per device to $10 per month per device and no longer providing internet for laptops.
Machinery & Equipment
6.Equipment replacement items at the maintenance level include replacement of a smart phone
for the Mayor ($480) and replacement of emergency radios ($2,373).
