3. MATTERS FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR & STAFF
A. Adoption of the Community Development Commission's Fiscal Year 2009.10 Annual
Operation and Capital Improvement Budget
The Community Development Commission's fiscal year 2009-10 Annual Operating and
Capital Improvement Budget is as follows:
Total Appropriations FY 2009-10 - $6,492,082
Recommendation: That the Community Development Commission adopt Resolution No.
2009-18 approving the fiscal year 2009-10 Annual Operating and Capital Improvement
Budget in the amount of $6,492,082.
Assistant City Manager Hawkesworth reviewed the annual budget for Community Development
Commission.
Vice- Chairman Taylor asked staff to explain the figures presented in the CDC budget on page 207, which
showed $8,258,000; however, the Commission was presented with $6,492,000 to approve. Mr. Taylor
asked where the difference of over $1.5 million went to.
Assistant City Manager Hawkesworth explained the way the Redevelopment budget sheets print, it
includes the transfers between each of the funds. As tax increment money comes in, money is transferred
to the Housing Corporation for their 20 percent set a side. Furthermore, the detailed sheets included
expenses out of the low/moderate housing funds but it's also expenses in the project area debt service
account as a transfer to the housing fund; therefore, showing it twice and as a result the total on the detail
sheets appears higher than the actual summary sheets.
Mr. Taylor asked where it was put twice.
Mr. Hawkesworth responded that on page 206 there was a figure of $2,057,332 and another one of
$250,000.
Mr. Taylorstated if you take $2,057,000 off the $8 million that was less than the 6 million and asked what
else was transferred out.
Assistant City Manager Hawkesworth explained that on the detailed sheet, it shows a figure of $8.25 million
and the number on the budget book shows $6.0 million, so we are looking at a difference of $2.25 million
difference. Therefore, the $2 million is in the line item and there is also a figure of $250,000, which is the
remainder of the transfer out. By reducing those numbers, you get the $6 million dollar figure.
Mr. Taylor stated the $8,258,000 minus the $2,057,000 amounts to $6,200,000 and minus the $250,000 did
not equal $6,492,000; there is still a difference of $500,000. Mr. Taylor felt there were some discrepancies
in the totals presented to the Commission and would vote no.
