2021 Proposed Tax Levy Components
Attachment 2
LEVY CHANGE TO MAINTAIN CURRENT SERVICE LEVELS – 5.25%
Mandatory Items – 3.44%
STAFFING
Wage/COLA and Benefits - $366,000
The city has labor agreements with three unions that are currently being negotiated for 2021. The budget includes a
proposed cost of living adjustment, city payroll taxes and health insurance premium contribution increase. The budget
also includes seasonal salaries.
Overtime Pay for City Contract Services -
$94,000
The city provides contract services such as Police staffing at Mystic Lake and Police and Parks staffing at local
community events such as Musicfest and Lakefront Days. The revenue is collected through a c ontract services charge
and the related expenditure is staff overtime for the services provided. The contracted services are planned to
increase in 2021 so the related staff overtime is also increasing. The increase is primarily in the Police department for
additional contracted services at Mystic Lake.
IT Support Specialist -$67,000 (PT to FT) The city has over 192 computer devices (workstations, laptops, tough books), 14 servers, mobile devices, the phone
system, printers/copiers, and seven city buildings with technology infrastructure that need to be managed. This is in
addition to software contracts, license agreements, device accounts, IT policies and procedures, long-term planning
and critical cyber security monitoring and training. At the same time, the technology needs of the police department
continue to expand, including body cameras, squad car cameras, ticket printers, transcription software, evidence/jail
cameras, etc. The volume of the workload is too much for one individual to manage and requires regular weekend
and over-night work. The city IT needs have expanded due to the COVID19 pandemic and made it more apparent
that redundancy in the IT department is necessary. The City Manager has moved the part-time position to full-time in
2020 and the position is currently posted. By offering a full-time position with benefits, the city should be able to
attract higher caliber candidates. This position would primarily serve the police department and provide helpdesk
back up to the IT Coordinator.
Pension Contribution - $78,000
City’s mandatory statutory Public Employees Retirement Association (PERA) contribution.
Workers Compensation - $31,000
Premium adjustment based on updated experience modifier and rate changes from the League of MN Cities.

CURRENT EXPENDITURES
Reduction in Contracted Services – ($48,000)
Contracted Services Increases:
• Increased funding for maintenance agreements for buildings/equipment/cleaning -$18k
• Audit fee for required federal funds single audit - $6k
• The City of Prior Lake contracts with Scott County to provide property assessment services. 2021 is the
second year of a three-year contract. Overall contract increase includes increasing assessment workloads
such as parcel creations, new home construction, and annexation activities - $6k
• Increased funding for Public Works engineering needs. A significant 2021 project is feasibility work related
to the Parks Master Plan - $30k
• Increased funding for the city’s insurance program through the League of MN Insurance Trust based on
annual updates to our property and general liability insurance coverage and proposed rate increase
guidelines from the League of MN Cities – 19k
• Increased funding for the Fire Dept. Special Response Team - $10k
• Increased funding for website budget presentation software - $11k
Contracted Services Decreases:
• Reduction in funding for Parks expenditures for trail/sidewalk seal coat and heavy equipment rental – ($45k)
• Reduction in funding for IT professional services. In 2021 staff will be added instead of contracting for these
services as we did in 2020 – ($94k)
• Reduction in funding for software service costs and Finance professional services –($9k)
Reduction in Utilities – ($60,000) Utility expenditures based on historical info and estimated cost increases. Increase in 2019/2020 has been less than
the budgeted estimate, so the budget was revised downward.
Supplies - $17,000 tax levy impact
• Police toughbooks, docking stations -$15k
• IT Computers, video cameras, monitor replacements -$9k
• Police and IT technology equipment became necessary to purchase in 2020 to allow for remote work and
City Hall security during the COVID19 pandemic. This was funded by CARES $ - ($24k)
• Streets snow & ice management materials - $17k
CAPITAL OUTLAY
Reduction in Tech Capital Outlay – ($68,000)
• 2020 included the purchase of a server and storage area network –($68k)
• 2021 IT network switch became necessary to purchase in 2020 to allow for increased server capacity to allow
for remote work - $20k
• 2021 IT technology equipment funded by CARES $ - ($20k)
NONTAX REVENUE SOURCES/OTHER
Net Revenue Shortfall of $121,000 offset with
Additional Revenues of $130,000
• The city collects building permit and plan check revenue on new residential and townhome units built. The
estimate for new construction for 2021 is 125 units which is less than the 2020 estimate of 135 units. This has
a budgetary impact of $55k. The budget reflects a one-time funding from reserves of $35k to fund a portion
of the revenue shortfall as compared to the 2020 budget as this is anticipated to be a “one-time” funding need.
3
Initial building permit projections at the start of the pandemic were 115 for 2020. That number has been
revised to 160 based on the YTD permit activity through October. Staff has been conservative in the 2021
building permit estimate as there is uncertainty in the new housing market due to the pandemic. It is
anticipated that this will be a “one-time” revenue shortfall based on the housing demand we have experienced
prior to the COVD19 pandemic. ($55k revenue shortfall less use of reserves of $35k = $20k tax levy impact.)
• City staff have been in discussions with the SMSC regarding the agreement for SMSC local government aid for
Police services. The preliminary agreement indicates that we will receive $700,000 in 2020. However, this is
$100k less than the 2021 budget amount of $800,000. The COVID19 pandemic has impacted Mystic Lake
operations as it has impacted many businesses across the state. When Mystic Lake operations return to
normal, we anticipate that the SMSC aid for Police services will include additional funding to move closer to
our 2021 $850,000 funding recommendation. The budget reflects a one-time funding from reserves of $100k
to cover this shortfall for 2021 police aid between budget and preliminary agreement received with the SMSC
as this is anticipated to be a “one-time” funding need. ($0 tax levy impact)
• The city collects revenue from cellular companies for leasing space on the city water towers. There is one less
lease in 2021 so revenue budget has been reduced - $10k
• Increase in funding from other funds for administrative services of the city’s opera ting fund for
admin/HR/Finance/IT, etc. – ($53k)
• Other expenditure adds across multiple depts for special election supplies/communications etc. -18k
• The city was awarded a two grant for Building Official training - $65k
• Increase in Township Fire & Rescue Aid Revenue: City staff has reviewed the existing agreement for fire and
rescue aid for Credit River and Spring Lake townships. The City Council has approved the proposed changes
to the contract that include financing annual equipment replacement and facility repairs on a pay-go basis,
financing major replacements and repairs with debt that follows the city’s debt repayment schedule of ten
years, and funding for the city’s administrative costs of the Fire department. This will add $64,500 in rev enue
for fire and rescue aid to the townships which reduces the tax levy impact.

Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Tax Levy Components 1.26%
Street Overlay funding -$40,000
The fund is reviewed annually to monitor cash flow and determine the tax levy needed. No specific projects are
identified at this time for 2021. Based on the increasing cost of recent years projects and impacts to the balance of
the PIR fund, it is proposed to forgo overlay projects for the next three years to allow the fund to regenerate its
balance. Staff is working towards the development of a more comprehensive pavement management program to
4
project longer term street network conditions and strategies for increasing the scope of street mill and overlay
projects as early as 2024.
Facilities Management Plan funding -$50,000
The Facility Management Plan (FMP) was developed to plan for major repairs, replacements, and upgrades for all city
facilities on a long-term basis (25 years). It does not cover minor expenses for repairs and maintenance. Those will
continue to be funded through the operating budgets . 2021 includes replacement of the City Hall boilers and epoxy
flooring replacement at Fire Station 1.
Park Equipment Replacement funding -$56,000 The Revolving Park Plan funds capital replacement projects, park amenities, and trail, sidewalk, and boardwalk
replacement. The plan proposes a phased increase in the tax levy to cover the capital proj ects in the plan. 2021
projects include the Sunset Hills Park renovation and Watzl Beach building and retaining wall removal.
Equipment Replacement funding - $25,000 The Equipment Replacement Plan (ERP) utilizes general tax levies to support replacement of the City’s equipment and
vehicle fleet. The ten-year annualized cost for the plan is about $1M. The financing plan reflect s a gradual increase in
the tax levy until the annual levy reaches $1M by the year 20 28. The proposed total levy for 2020 is $650k. Since the
proposed levy increase is gradual, bonding may be required for the plan to meet our funding needs.
Economic Development Authority (EDA)Tax Levy Component .55%
EDA Tax Levy Increase - $75,000
$ 364,000 EDA Source of Funds
525,000 EDA Use of Funds
$ 161,000 EDA Use of Reserves
The Economic Development Authority (EDA) has identified a need for additional expenditure budget and funding for
economic development initiatives. The EDA budget includes a funding increase of $75k to bring the EDA tax levy to
$350k The EDA has a future commitment of approximately $388,000 for the acquisition of the Sebastian Auto
property as a part of a future downtown redevelopment project. With the tax levy set at $350,000, 2021 use of
reserves of $160,000 will also be needed to help fund the 2021 EDA expenditures. The assistance provided by the
City Council and EDA in recent years to support business development, retention and expansion has helped the city
achieve its stated public purpose objectives. The city has added nearly 330,000 square feet of new
commercial/industrial property to the city over the past few years in part due to the support of the Prior Lake City
Council and Economic Development Authority. This new commercial and industrial square footage results in an
estimated $120,000+ in annual property tax payments to the City of Prior Lake. That equates to almost 1% of our tax
levy annually that is paid by this new commercial tax base. The city is striving to increase this commercial tax base and
the additional funding request would be us ed to this end.
General Fund Reserve
General Fund use of reserves- $124,000
Background information: The city’s comprehensive financial management plan calls for maintaining a fund balance
between 40-50% to ensure adequate reserves for cash flow, unplanned expenditures, and to maintain the city’s credit
worthiness (AA+ credit rating). Staff recommends the use of reserves for one-time expenditures or revenue shortfall;
otherwise, the fund balance could drop below the level stated in the comprehensive financial management plan over
time. The total 2020 use of reserves was $325k. This includes a planned transfer to the EDA ($161,250), the redesign
of the city’s website ($40,000), and carryforward of 2019 budget items that were started in 2019 but completed/billed
in 2020. ($124,000)
2021 Planned Use of Reserves is $124,000 to fund the following items:

• SMSC Police Aid Revenue Shortfall - $100k: The preliminary agreement with the SMSC indicates that we will
receive $700,000 in 2021 for Police aid. This is an additional $50k as compared to 2020. However, this is
$100k less than the 2020 budget amount of $800,000. The COVID19 pandemic has impacted Mystic Lake
