Histo The EDA discussed a preliminary 2012 budget at their August 22, 2011 meeting. Commissioners decided at that time to include an additional $50k in the professional services account to provide resources for exploring economic development options. Staff increased the amount of interest earnings revenue presented in August from $2k to $6k. The City Council conducted a Truth in Taxation public hearing which reflected the revenue and expenditure levels as represented on the attached proposed 2012 budget. Current Circumstances The Economic Development Authority Special Revenue Fund currently has approximately $333,000 available to establish a 2012 budget. The EDA may consider the options presented or make specific changes. Conclusion The EDA should adopt the 2012 budget as presented or with any recommended changes. ISSUES: Article 10.2 of the EDA bylaws requires that the EDA budget by approved by the City Council. Upon approval by the EDA, the adopted budget will be considered for final approval by the City Council at the December 19, 2011 council meeting. FINANCIAL The proposed 2012 budget reflects a use of reserves in the amount of IMPACT: $131,923, leaving approximately $202,077 in the Economic Development Authority Special Revenue Fund. Once the EDA reserves have been spent, they are gone and would need to be replaced with other funding sources if the EDA anticipates having ongoing expenses in 2013 and beyond. The availability and sources of future economic development resources (other than the transfer of residual fund balances of economic development - related funds) has not been discussed by the City Council or the Economic Development Authority. Some considerations may be as follows: 1. Transfer of General Fund reserves; 2. Transfer from General Fund tax levy; 3. Economic Development Authority tax levy, and 4. Bonds issued by the Economic Development Authority All of the above options must also be approved by the City Council. In early 2012, Staff will be bringing information back to the EDA regarding the process of implementing an EDA property tax levy in anticipation of the 2013 budgeting process. ALTERNATIVES: The following alternatives are available to the EDA: 1. Approve Resolution Adopting 2012 EDA as proposed. 2. Amend Resolution according to specific EDA changes.
