Budget Presentation - Debt Service Fund
body
Purpose
The purpose of this memo is to provide information to the Franklin Board of Mayor and Aldermen (BOMA) concerning the proposed preliminary budget of the Debt Service Fund for Fiscal Year 2017-2018.
Background
Each year, the Budget & Finance Committee reviews the detailed budget of each City Department. At the meetings in February, March, and April, departmental staff makes a presentation of the plans for the next budget cycle and the requested funding for those anticipated needs. This provides the Committee with an idea of the size and scope of budget requests that may be included in the City Administrator's proposed budget, which is typically delivered at the May committee meeting.
It is important to note that this budget in particular will be amend in the ensuing weeks before submission of the City Administrator’s proposed budget to account for additional debt service incurred from the issuance of G.O. Bonds, scheduled within the next several months.
Financial Impact
The financial impact varies by department, depending on the increase in population, the required services, equipment replacement needs, and program enhancements.
Recommendation
rec
Staff recommends review of the budget materials. No action is required.
