The budget is comprised of an operating budget of $24,591,841, a capital budget of $3,663,950 and a debt service budget of $5,249,650. The operating budget funds the general operation of City programs such as police, fire, streets, parks and recreation through the General Fund. The General Fund is financed primarily by the property tax, sales tax, vehicle and franchise taxes and various fees. Enterprise funds are also funded in the operating budget. Enterprise funds are expected to be self-sufficient, relying on charges for service. They comprise over 21 percent of the total city budget. The four enterprise funds which the City of Salina operates are: Sanitation, Solid Waste, Municipal Golf Course, and Water and Sewerage. Retirement of the City's outstanding debt is also a component of the 1994 budget. This debt is made up of municipal bonds, issued to pay for major capital improvement projects. This year, 15.67 percent of the budget will go into paying debt service. All General Obligation debt is scheduled to be retired within ten years. All Revenue bonds for the Enterprise funds are scheduled to be retired within 20 years. The City of Salina remains well under all laws and standards for prudent amount of municipal debt outstanding and the City's bonds carry excellent ratings from national bond rating services. The capital budget provides funds for the construction of major City facilities and infrastructure by cash when municipal bonds are not used, and for the replacement of vehicles and equipment. This budget represents 10.94 percent of the total City budget for 1994. It is financed through fees, general taxes, gasoline taxes and other bud- geted revenues. . ..... .. ...... ........ .. ...... ..."'" .. ........ ......... ........ ...::;;;;;;;;;;;;:;:;;:: ....,.¡;¡¡~;;;:¡¡::...

Total City Debt Service $2,402,400 $5.249.650 Water and Sewer Fees 14 1994 Anticipated Revenue The City budget is financed through a wide variety of revenues. The Tax Supported Funds receive most of their revenue from various taxes. The Enterprise Funds are supported mainly by charges for services. The remaining funds of the City are supported by several revenue types. For 1994, the City anticipates total revenues to be about $33,644,823. Tax Supported Funds The activities of the tax supported funds are supported by a variety of revenue sources. For 1994, the total anticipated revenues for these funds are $17,877,886. Sales taxes now make up 36.92 percent of the revenues for these general activities (19.62 percent of all city revenues). The property tax accounts for 26.09 percent of tax supported funds revenues (13.86 percent of all city revenues). The 1994 City property tax is 29.461 mills per thousand dollar valuation on taxable property. A mill levy is a tax assessed on real property. A one mill increase would raise $1.00 for every $1,000 of the assessed value of real property. For example, a house assessed at $10,000 would be taxed $10.00 at a 1 mill level. Enterprise Funds Enterprise Funds are to be self-supporting based upon the revenue received for services rendered. Thus, these funds do not receive any tax revenues. Anticipated fee revenues of$11 ,705,000 make up 95.03 % of the $12,317,500 in anticipated revenue for these funds. Water and sewer revenues of $8,840,000 make up the majority of these fees. All Other Funds Some of these funds have dedicated revenues which must be used in a specific manner. The $1,175,000 from the gas tax must be used for street construction, repair or maintenance. The $475,000 from the transient guest tax must be used for tourism and convention development. Other revenues represent fees for services. The Bicentennial Center will collect about $610,000 from charges for services. Our Data Processing and Central Garage will collect almost $945,035 in charges from various City departments and Saline County. Total anticipated revenues for all these funds is $3,449,437. 15 1994 Anticipated Revenues All Funds Amount Percent Taxes: Sales $6,600,000 19.62 Property 4,664,633 13.86 Franchise 1,549,000 4.60 Vehicle 985,000 2.93 Transient Guest 475,000 1.41 Other 58,510 .17 $14,332,143 42.59 Intergovernmental 2,637,445 7.84 Fees: Water $4,500,000 13.38 Sewer 4,174,000 12.41 Sanitation 975,000 2.90 Solid Waste 1,300,000 3.86 Bicentennial Center 610,000 1.81 Golf Course 590,000 1.75 Recreation 413,200 1.23 Ambulance 322,000 .96 Other 677,500 2.01 13,561,700 40.31 Fines 424,000 1.26 Special Assessments 685,000 2.04 Interest 594,000 1.77 Reimbursements 1,160,535 3.45 Temporary notes 250,000 .74 Total Anticipated Revenues $33,644,823 100.00 % .

As a result, events or trends which develop after August are not reflected in the 1994 budget. Many times, these events have little bearing on the overall financial condition. This is not true for the last five months of 1993. During this time period, it became obvious that Salina was entering into a period of solid economic growth. This was reflected in the 15 percent increase over the prior year in sales tax collections. Other favorable trends have shown up in new home construction, business expansions and the overall real estate market. Overall, the City is expecting an increase in fund balances for our tax supported funds of almost one million dollars above the January I, 1994 estimates in the 1994 budget. Many of these trends will continue into 1994. Thus, our revenue estimates for 1994 will most likely be revised upward. This will result in a higher December 31, 1994 fund balance than is shown in the 1994 budget. Also, the City will soon be considering three additions to the 1994 capital improvement program. Fox Theater storefront renovations, paving of certain North Salina dirt streets and several stonn drainage projects are being considered as additions to the 1994 capital improvement program. At this point, itis estimated that these one time capital costs can be funded easily by the improved 1994 revenues coming in from our economic expansion. Overall, the financial stability ofthe City of Salina has been enhanced by the changes which have occurred since preparation of the 1994 budget. Detailed financial information on 1993 will be available in early 1994. Å ,.;.;::.:.;.;.' .. '."'"
