OUTCOMES:

The key financial highlights from January 1, 2023, through June 30, 2024, include the following:

 

REVENUE

 

• Property Tax is 1.3%, or $498,000, below target.

 

• Sales & Use Tax is 11.5%, or $6.8 million, above target primarily due to the level of development activity and retail sales. The total sales tax on construction is $20.0 million. The total includes retail sales tax, criminal justice sales tax, and use tax.

 

• Utility & Other Taxes are 15.0%, or $2.4 million, above target primarily due to increase electricity rates by PSE.

 

Development Permit & Fees are 4.0%, or $618,000, below target.

 

Business License Fees are 18.0%, or $1.8 million, below target primarily due to the timing of license renewals.

 

Other Revenues are 88.0%, or $5.7 million, above target primarily due to high Annual Percentage Yield (APY) on short term investments.

 

EXPENDITURES:

• Total expenditures are 2.0%, or $4.5 million, below the target.

 

• Spend rate for some departments is over/below the target:

 

Non-Departmental is 1.0%, or $653,000 million, over the target primarily due to the timing of operating transfers that are processed.

 

Finance Department is 8.0%, or $900,000, under the target primarily due to position vacancies.

 

Fire Department is 2.0%, or $896,000 million, over the target primarily in overtime driven by firefighter backfill while new recruits attend the Fire Academy.

 

Planning Department is 9.0%, or $2.6 million, under the target primarily due to position vacancies and reduced spending in travel and training.

                     

Capital Investment Program (CIP): Total expenditures are 57.0% of budget at the 75.0% point of the 2023-2024 biennium.

 

Business Technology Investment Program (BTIP): Total expenditures are 22.0% of budget at the 75.0% point of the 2023-2024 biennium.
