OUTCOMES:

The key financial highlights from January 1, 2021 through March 31, 2022 include the following:

General Fund

                     Total revenues are 23.8%, or $27.6 million, above target.

 

                     Property tax is 1.4%, or $326,000, below target due to the timing of the first half property tax payment to King County, which is due April 30, 2022.

 

                     Sales & use taxes are 83.5%, or $26.9 million, above target primarily due to the high level of development activity. This includes retail sales tax, criminal justice sales tax, and use taxes. Ongoing retail sales tax is 23.5%, or $6.9 million, above target. One-time retail sales tax, which primarily relates to construction, is $21.5 million through March 31, 2022.

 

                     Utility taxes are 3.3%, or $450,000, above target primarily due to an electric utility tax spike.

 

                     License & permit fees are 19.6%, or $3.0 million, above target primarily due to the high level of development activity.

 

                     Intergovernmental revenues are 4.3%, or $893,000, below target due to the timing of King County EMS payments to the City. The fourth quarter 2021 payment was received in the first quarter of 2022, but it was accrued back to 2021.

 

                     Total expenditures are 10.5%, or $17.0 million, below target primarily due to position vacancies, the timing of one-time expenditures, and the budget adjustments adopted by ordinance on August 17, 2021 that impact 2022 and beyond.

 

Other Funds

                     Recreation Activity Fund:  Total revenues are 12.7%, or $173,000, above target primarily due to program registrations, with indoor programs starting in 2022, field rentals, and donations.

 

                     Water/Wastewater M&O Fund: Total revenues are 5.1%, or $2.4 million, more than total expenditures. Commercial water consumption is 1.9% below target.

 

                     Capital Investment Program:  Total expenditures are 40.5% of budget at the 62.5% point of the 2021-2022 biennium.
