Changes From Prior Year:
The cost for services related to the City Attorney, Civil Service, Human Resources, Finance and
City Treasurer have increased by approximately $178,500. The majority of the increase is
related to reimbursement for payroll charges, such as broker and administrative fees related to
Mercer (the City's benefits/healthcare administrator) and staff time ($105,000). For the current
year, reimbursement for treasury, investment, and banking services provided by the City
1
Treasurer were added ($40,500). Other costs increases are related to the increase of Civil
Service's percentage of time spent providing services to the Water Department ($18,600) and
increases for personnel costs in Human Resources and the City Attorneys Office ($14,400).
The cost for Information Technology Services (See Attachment "l") has decreased to $539,600
from $522,267. The reductions are related to decrease in staff time and services available to be
provided to the Water Department pursuant to the City's 10% employee givebacks. As such, the
reduction of$17,333 will not have an impact on the General Fund or IT Fund.
Financial Impact:
Anticipated reimbursement amounts from the Water Department Master Services Memorandum
of Understanding will be included in the FY 2010/11 preliminary and adopted budgets, as
follows:
Budget by Fund FY 10/11 FY 09/10
