MEMORANDUM
TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSIONERS
FROM: David T. Harden
THROUGH: CITY MANAGER
DATE: Apri127, 2007
SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM # -REGULAR MEETING OF MAY 1, 2007
MID-YEAR BUDGET AMENDMENT
ITEM BEFORE COMMISSION
Mid-year budget amendment.
BACKGROUND
The attached memo from the Budget Officer describes in some detail the proposed mid-year budget
amendment. I have also included the actual mid-year requests received from the Fire and Police
Departments. Staff will be available to answer additional questions the Commission may have.
The proposal as presented includes $174,875 in overtime for the Fire Department to increase the
staffing in station #2 on the barrier island from four to five. It does not include $62,690 for two
additional police officers requested for the Clean and Safe Program in the downtown area, nor the
$22,790 requested for renting space for the Vice, Intelligence and Narcotics (VIN) unit from the
City of Boca Raton.
FUNDING SOURCE
Additional revenues as outlined in the attached memo from the Budget Office.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend that the mid-year budget resolution be approved with the deletion of the additional
overtime for the Fire Department. I do not think it is prudent to increase staffing for station #2 at a
time when the Legislature may well take action which will force us to reduce staffing in some of
our other stations. This request could be reconsidered at third quarter or when we know what our
revenue limitations are for next year. The annual cost would be in excess of $300,000. For similar
reasons I have not included the funds for renting space from Boca. There may be other options we
have not yet considered, and we maybe placed in the position of choosing between renting space or
loosing a police officer. The CRA director is receptive to providing additional funding for two
more Clean and Safe officers, and I would recommend adding these officers when the funding
agreement is in place.

GENERAL FUND REVENUES
MARCH 31, 2007 (PERIOD 6)
FISCAL YEAR 2006-07
General Fund Summary
The General Fund Budget as of the six month period ending March 31, 2006 totaled
$101, 399, 029. Adjustments of $1, 716, 431 were made for an amended total of $103,11 S, 460.
General Fund Revenue Introduction
General Fund revenue collection for the six-month period ending March 31, 2007 totaled
$73,497,386 or 72% of the total budget. This includes encumbrances brought forward totaling
$364,530. The City can expect a surplus of $1,716,431 at fiscal year end.
Variances are discussed in more detail below.
Ad Valorem Taz Revenue
A total of $51,865,570 or 89% of the budget was collected for this revenue category. The City
can expect a surplus of $757,000. This is based on an expected surplus of $776,000 for current
ad valorem taxes offset by an expected shortfall in delinquent taxes totaling ($19,000). The
projection for current ad valorem taxes will be adjusted once the final assessment has been
received. We should expect final assessment figures sometime this summer.
Sales and Use Tazes
Sales and Use Taxes totaled $724,527 or 47% of the budget. The City can anticipate a shortfall
of $50,000 at fiscal year end due to optional gas tax revenues coming in less than expected.
Franchise Tazes
The City has collected $2,463,344 or 54% of the budget for this category. A surplus of
$1,000,000 is expected at fiscal year end primarily due to an increase in the projection for
franchise fees based on electric usage. Franchise fees based on electric are up 19% from last year
for the same time period.
Utility Tazes
Utility Tax revenues totaled $2,267,114 or 51 % of the budget. No variances are expected at this
time. Utility tax collections are comparable to the prior year. Franchise fees are up in
comparison to last year's collection but not utility taxes due to the fact that the base for which
franchise fees are calculated includes fuel charges. There was a 24% increase in fuel charges this
past year.
Other Tazes
The communication service tax (CST) revenue collections totaled $1,843,691 or 41% of the
budget. This revenue source is coming in less than anticipated resulting in an expected shortfall
of $700,000 at fiscal year end. CST revenues aze down 21% from last year for the same time
period. A representative for the State of Florida Department of Revenue explained that CST
revenues for the whole state aze down proportionately.
Licenses
License revenues totaled $702,110 or 93% of the budget. The City can expect a surplus of
$6,000 due to anticipated surplus balances in occupational license inspections ($4,000) and
sidewalk permits ($2,000). Revenue collections for FY 07 are compazable to last yeaz's
collections ($706,173).
Permit Revenues
Permit revenues totaled $1,639,900 or 49% of the budget. The City can anticipate a surplus of
$37,000 at fiscal year end. This is due to anticipated surplus balances in shutter permits
($30,000), enclosure permits ($20,700), trailer permits ($1,800), no final inspection fees ($4,000)
and miscellaneous permits ($52,000). This is offset by anticipated shortfalls in plumbing permits
($20,000), air conditioning permits ($20,000), paving permits ($24,500), and conditional
certifications ($7,000).
Intergovernmental Revenues
Intergovernmental revenues are at $3,686,254 or 47% of the budget. The City can anticipate a
surplus of $536,881 at fiscal yeaz end. This is due to projected surplus balances in the line items
for the Urban and Community Forestry grant ($127,003), State Homeland Security grant
($2,114), FEMA Hazard Mitigation grant ($3,763), FEMA mutual aid grant ($448,000), EMS
grant ($42,001), Florida Department of Transportation grant ($22,000), grant from local units
($12,500), Metlife Foundation grant ($1,500), and the Sports Authority grant ($35,000).
These surplus balances aze offset by a projected shortfall in state sales tax revenue ($75,000) and
the state gas tax refund ($2,000).
Please note FEMA has changed the distribution formula for prior hurricane aid. The Federal
government has increased their ald from 75% to 90% while the State and decreased their
distribution rate from 12.5% to 5.0% resulting in a net increase of 7.5% or $448,000.
Charges for Services
Chazges for Services totaled $2,992,249 or 47% of the budget. The City can expect a shortfall of
$224,360 at fiscal yeaz end. The shortfall is due to expected shortfalls in zoning fees ($8,920),
plat approval fees ($11,290), site plan approval fees ($48,840), conditional use fees ($11,190),
abandonment fees ($2,380), taxable items ($3,000), miscellaneous land use application fees
($26,040), beach overlays ($6,500), certifications/copies ($7,000), and transport fees ($350,000).
This is offset by expected surplus balances in fire safety plan review fees ($55,000), cemetery
fees ($5,000), beach parking fees ($35,000), after school program fees ($11,000), concessions
($22,800), special events -miscellaneous ($12,000), tennis memberships ($50,000), and tennis
lesson sales ($70,000).
Fines and Forfeitures
Fines and Forfeitures totaled $425,284 or 42% of the budget. The City can expect a shortfall of
$69,000 at fiscal year end primarily due to estimated shortfalls in general fines ($40,000),
collection agency revenues ($7,500), school crossing guard fees ($34,000), false alarm fees
($5,000) and parking late fees ($13,000). This is offset by projected surplus balances in handicap
ticket fees ($20,000), code enforcement fines ($4,000), civil violation fees ($4,000), and
penalties on ad valorem fines ($2,500).
Interfund Transfers
Interfund Transfers are at $12,500 or 50% of the budget. The City can expect a surplus of $8,385
at fiscal year end due to an anticipated surplus in the transfer from the Special Projects Fund.
This amount represents school crossing guard surcharges collected in FY06.
Contribution from Other Funds
Contributions from Other Funds are at $1,482,025 or 50% of the budget. The City can expect to
be at budget at fiscal year end.
Recovery of Administrative Costs
Recovery of Administrative Costs is at $1,089,785 or 50% of the budget. The City can expect to
be at budget at fiscal year end.
Miscellaneous Revenue
Miscellaneous revenues totaled $1,938,503 or 64% of the budget. The City can expect a surplus
of $414,525 at fiscal year end due to anticipated surplus balances in interest earnings ($350,000),
interest from the tax collector ($25,000), interest on accounts receivable ($5,000), land proceeds
($62,000), assessment revenues ($8,500), CRA shuttle service contribution ($39,995) and VISA
rebate ($4,300). This surplus is offset by anticipated shortfalls in tennis stadium rentals ($5,000),
CRA contribution/neighborhood planner ($32,770), CRA communications manager ($20,000),
CRA contribution/in-house project management services ($1,500), and refund of prior year
expenditures ($12,500). It should be noted that assessment revenue collected pays back the
general fund for projects expensed in a prior year and, therefore, is not a budgeted item.
Mid Year Budget Amendment
Fiscal Year 2006-2007
General Fund Fznendltures
The General Fund expenditures total $55,119,903 or 53% of the proposed amended budget of $103,115,460. The

The increase in General Government expenditures totals $295,259.
The City Commission's budget is increasing $60,000 for two additional unbudgeted federal lobbying firms.

Assistant City Manager, maintenance of the time management system and hosting the PBCCMA lunch meeting.
The Human Resources' Department's increase of $27,590 is due to an increase in hours for the part time Office
Assistant, increase in service award gifts for employees, additional training, maintenance of the time management
system and tuition reimbursement for the accelerated master's degree program.
The Public Information Department's decrease of $25,781 is due to the position of Communication Manager not

full time status.
T'he City Clerk's Department increase of $170 is for maintenance of the time management system.

TO: David T. Harden, City Manager
FROM: Kerry B. Koen, Fire Chief
SUBJECT: -Mid-Year Budget Adjustment - 2007
DATE: March 2, 2007
As you will recall, there was considerable discussion at the City Commission
Workshop session on August 8, 2006 regarding our budget request to add a Fire
Fighter/Paramedic to the daily staffing on Engine 2 at 35 Andrews Avenue. At the time,
we were seventeen positions down from our authorized complement, and primarily
because of this the City Commission did not want to authorize additional staffing until
the number of vacancies was substantially reduced. However, there was interest in
bringing this matter back to the Commission at the time of the forthcoming mid-year
budget review/amendment.
To that end, I am able to report that we will be at 100% of current authorized
staffing in the Operations Division effective March 19, 2007. This is a direct result, in
my opinion, of the adjustment in our compensation package that was addressed in this
year's budget. Both the improved overall quality of the typical candidate and the
numbers of candidates available for consideration enabled us to make three good rounds
of personnel selection since October l St, leading to this outcome.
Now we are at a point that I feel we can make the staffing adjustment on Engine
2. I recommend this be done initially by increasing the minimum daily staffing by one
Fire Fighter/Paramedic beginning April 1St. This would be accomplished by using
additional requested overtime in the amount of $162,448, plus F.I.C.A., rather than hiring
more personnel, at least during the remainder of this fiscal year. The decision to continue
this practice, or convert this cost to full time personnel could be further considered as part~`~~j

of the upcoming budget discussions. The advantages of the overtime approach are:
• It produces an instant service improvement.
• It avoids capital outlay costs for personal protective equipment and
communications apparatus.
• It avoids recruitment expense including staff time to select new personnel.
• It avoids orientation and training costs associated with new personnel.
If this strategy is approved, we will provide a standard, uniform level of service
throughout the community both in the static deployment mode as well as the operational
coverage plan used for training and move-ups throughout the day. We will also be able
to have 100% of our primary response units certified and functioning at ,the Advanced
Life Support level. Both of these improvements would be significant "firsts" for the
Department and the City of Delray Beach.
While the attachments speak to the overall activity levels and operational
standards for Engine 2 in general terms, I would point out that there have been a number
of serious fires and incidents of greater potential in recent months in areas served by this
unit. Each of these incidents has again illustrated to our operational commanders the real
and substantial need for increased staffing on this unit. Operational effectiveness for the
benefit of the public and the safety of our personnel continue to be overriding concerns.
These considerations also apply to our responsibilities in Gulf Steam and Highland Beach
where Engine.2 is either first or second due on most responses.
Your positive consideration of this long standing request would certainly be
appreciated by me and the entire Fire-Rescue Department.

The Police Department has identified its budget shortfalls, in the amount of $442,134,
for Fiscal Year 2006107. The Department has identified internal surpluses and will
submit a Budget Transfer Form to cover $41,850 of that amount. We are requesting a
mid-year budget adjustment of $400,284 to cover the remainder of the projected deficit
which is due to non budgeted expenditures that have occurred during the first half of the
Fiscal Year or will occur in the last half of the Fiscal Year.
There are several line items throughout the budget that are at less than 50%. The
excess funds in these accounts will be used to support the budget transfer of $41,850.
Currently three of the six salary accounts are under the 50% threshold. The salary
surplus in those accounts should cover most of the shortages in overtime for the first
half of the fiscal year. However, additional funding will be necessary to cover a portion
of that overtime and to cover overtime needs for the second half of the year.
The following is a breakdown of the requested $400,284:
• Increased Staffing of four (4) Police Officers, $109,435, as detailed in our
request dated 2/9/07. A summary of that request is provided below:
SCHOOL RESOURCE OFFICER l1) -With one additional officer the Police Department
could dedicate an officer/investigator full-time to Carver. Middle School. With the recent
surge in violent crime and gang activity, this added position would be responsible for
assisting the Palm Beach County School District Officer assigned there as well as to
investigate criminal cases that occur both inside and outside the school when it involves
school students_ Additionally, this position could be responsible for teaching DARE and
GREAT at the school.

VIOLENT CRIME TASK FORCE (1) - An additional police officer would allow us to
contribute one ofi•icer ful( time to the' Palm Beach County Violent Crime Task Force.
Other municipalities of like size all contribute one officer full time although currently our
officer is committed only on a part-time basis. There are several benefits to this
commitment. To begin with, the Delray Beach Police Department will have an invaluable
link to information and intelligence on violent crime throughout the county. This full-time
position would be responsible for disseminating real time intelligence to officers and
investigators in our department. With the recent rise in violent crime in our city, in the
county and around the nation, making a full time commitment to the Violent Crime Task
Force is no longer an option and should be a priority for our department.
CLEAN AND SAFE OFFICERS (2) -With this increase, the Police Department could
commit two additional officers full-time to Clean and Safe. With the growing number of
people that live, work and play in the downtown, a constant, visible law enforcement
presence is paramount to ensuring that the "safe" component of Clean and Safe is met.
With that said, two officers would be added to Clean and Safe to increase the presence
of law enforcement in and around our downtown. These two positions would be
dedicated to foot, bike and Segway patrols and would not be subject to calls for service
or any other demand that would take them out of the downtown area so that a
continuous presence would be ensured.
The cost of these positions would equal $109,435,
as follows:
1. 2115-12.10 Salary
(Calculated based on 4 positions at $42,750)
2. 2115-21.10 FICA (and other benefits at 20%)
3. Uniforms and Assoc. equip. ($2,000 x 4)
4. Academy ($2,915 x 4)
and would be added to the account ~

• Overtime expenses of $230,559 are being requested. Due to increases in crime
and gang violence seen both nationally and locally, increased proactive enforcement
is necessary and has been demanded by the community at large. While the increase
in positions requested above will help in this area to some extent, realistically, any
new hires beginning their positions at this point in the year would be in training
throughout the remainder of this fiscal year. Over-time in the amount of $90,160 is
being requested to fund these efforts. This figure was based on part-time hours for 3
positions (25 hrs wk x 26 wks x 3 staff) at the average officer overtime salary of
$42.95 per hour, plus FICA. Additional funding in the amount of $140,399 is needed
to offset overtime deficits incurred during the first half of the year which were not
covered by the salary surplus (after termination pay was factored in).
• 2111-54.35 Tuition Reimbursement X37,500: We have four (4) employees
requesting to be added to the Tuition Reimbursement Program at mid-year and
twenty-two who were previously approved and already enrolled in programs.

group. This exciting new program is designed to build leadership and improve our
ability to conduct successful succession planning. However, in order for it to be
successful, it will have to be fully funded. Our original tuition reimbursement request
was only funded at 61 %. We are requesting dollars to fully fund the original request
and add the individuals who were previously unbudgeted (including those already
approved for participation in the In-House FAU Master's Program).
• Off-site V.I.N. Loca#ion: $22,790, as detailed in our request 1/26/07. A summary
and the associated costs are provided below.
The V.I.N. unit, a team of 8, is currently housed within the Police Department. This
compromises their ability to successfully conduct undercover operations. The
challenge of retaining their covert status is increasing due to the addition on the
South County Courthouse. Fortunately, our team has developed a strong
partnership with the Boca Raton Police Department, and they have offered to
provide space for us. Estimated costs are nominal and include:
