Memo
Re: Ordinance No. 10-20 — Amending the Annual Appropriations for
Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 2020 (Q1)
Background
Ordinance No. 10-20 amends the annual appropriations for the fiscal year ending December 31,
2020 in the General Fund and in various other funds to provide sufficient funding in certain budget
accounts. Descriptions of the appropriations contained within each section of the Ordinance are as
follows:
Section 1 requests a total of $35,000 in funding authorization in the General Fund.
Transfer
Funding for a $35,000 transfer to the Accrued Leave Reserve Fund is being requested. This Fund,
established by the Ohio Revised Code provides for pay -outs to employees at termination of service
contingent on eligibility for retirement or departure, minimum years of service and any minimum sick
leave balance requirements. The Accrued Leave Reserve Fund is funded through contributions of a
percentage of full-time salaries. Pay -outs for 2016, 2017, and 2018 were relatively consistent as
shown below. City Council may recall that the pay -outs for 2019 increased to a point that additional
appropriation funding was requested during Q4 of last year.
2016
$285,283
2017
$172,450
2018
$262,597
2019
$427,256
(Note: these figures do not include benefit amounts paid on accrued leave.)
2019 funding included pay -outs for twenty-six (26) employees including six (6) Directors. These
types of pay -outs are difficult to predict from one year to the next.
Initiating Department. Department of Finance (Section 1)
Section 2 requests funding authorization of $121,500 in the Hotel/Motel Tax Fund.
$9,000 is being requested for the payment to the Bridge Park New Community Authority (NCA) for
25% of the lodging tax generated by the operation of the Bridge Park AC Marriott Hotel and Dublin
Home 2 Suites Hotel per the development agreement with Crawford Hoying Development Partners,

LLC (Ordinance 44-15). This annual grant will be used by the Bridge Park NCA to pay a portion of
the operating, maintenance and capital expense costs of the community facilities. The remittance
covers the months of January through December 2019 (paid in January 2020). The total remittance
amount due was $124,365. The amount budgeted in the 2020 Operating Budget was based on only
one year of history for the 2019 year ($111,440) with an approximate 3.5% increase totaling
$115,400. The net budget deficit is approximately $9,000.
Also requested is $112,500 for enhancements for the Dublin Irish Festival. Of that amount, $65,000
is for security related improvements. $22,000 of the requested amount encompasses one-time
infrastructure costs. The remaining portion of the request, $47,500 is related to new payment
solutions for the Festival. This enhancement will negate the use of beverage tokens for the DIF.
Staff has found a solution through a vendor called Square, which will enable payments to be
accepted through credit cards at all sales locations. Addition information was included in the City
Manager Update packet on Wednesday, March 25. Staff expects significant increases in revenue due
to incremental beverage pricing changes that will more than offset the $47,500 needed to
implement the program.
Initiating Department. Departments of Finance, and Parks & Recreation (Section 2)
Section 3 requests additional funding in the total amount of $6,142,525 in the Capital
Improvements Tax Fund. Of that amount $6.0 million is requested for the renovation and
construction of the future City Hall and Council Chamber project. This encompasses the third
amendment for the balance of the Council Chamber addition work. The contract for the additional
work is planned to be presented to City Council for approval in April/May 2020. At some future point
in the year, an adjustment may be needed to this appropriation. Construction of the new Council
Chamber addition is currently anticipated to be completed in the spring/summer 2021.
Additionally, funding in the amount of $62,500 is requested for the Dublin Senior/Disabled Circulator
Pilot Program as the result of a grant award received from the Mid -Ohio Regional Planning
Commission (MORPC). The purpose of the circulator is to provide transportation for Dublin seniors
and people with disabilities to improve quality of life and increase access to daily, non -emergency
destinations and activities. While some programs provide transportation services for non -emergency
medical trips, it is rare to find services that specifically promote active daily living. Coordination
began internally with the Aging in Place strategic plan and the Dublin Community Senior Citizens
Membership staff. Additionally, several senior residential facilities and a local developmentally
disabled service provider were engaged as part of the pilot program. The team coordinated with
MORK on Dublin's 2019 application for FTA 5310 grant funding and was ultimately awarded
approximately $62,500 to further expand the pilot and include rides to community special events.
The City is now in receipt of the grant funding from MORK, and is requesting the supplemental
appropriation to be allocated for the program. The Division of Planning is currently seeking
additional grant funding for the program.
At this time, we are also requesting appropriation authorization for $80,025 for costs associated with
the Dublin Workforce Shuttle Program. This appropriation will be reimbursed through an approved
OTP2 Transit Partnership Program grant through COTA.

Ordinance 10-20 -Amend in g the Annual Appropriations for Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 2020
1st Quarter
April 7, 2020
Section 4 requests that funding in the amount of $14.0 million be advanced from the Capital
Construction Fund back to the General Fund pursuant to issuance of the City's general obligation
bonds for the purpose of construction of the Riverside Crossing Park improvements. You may recall
that an advance of $14 million was made from the General Fund to the Capital Construction Fund in
December 2019 (Ordinance 72-19). The project needed funding in the Capital Construction Fund
since debt had not been issued. At that time, City Council was advised that the advance would be
repaid to the General Fund after debt issuance (also see Section 7).
Section 5 requests that funding in the amount of $1.6 million be transferred from the Rings/Frantz
TIF Fund to The Corners TIF Fund as approved in Ordinance No. 69-19. As City Council may recall,
the City and the project Developer (The Daimler Group, Inc.) agreed to use $1.6 million from the
Rings/Frantz TIF with an additional $1.765 million financed by the Developer to finance $3.365
million in public infrastructure improvements. Those improvements include parkland, pond
enhancements, and other related improvements. Service payments received from the TIF will be
used to repay the Developer on an annual basis over the next 10 years.
Section 6 requests that $14,000 be un -appropriated in the Irelan Place TIF Fund. The Irelan Place
TIF was approved in 2003 (Ord. 105-03) and provided for the construction of an 8 -inch water line
along Irelan Place. To date, the service payments from the TIF have repaid $61,500 of the $90,437
originally advanced to the Fund from the Capital Improvements Tax Fund. The 2020 Operating
Budget reflected the final advance repayment of $28,937 to be repaid in 2020. However, the service
payments were reduced in 2019 due to a Board of Revision case on the associated value of the TIF
parcels. Therefore, the balance in the Fund will not allow the full amount of the repayment to be
made in 2020, but it is anticipated that the full advance repayment will be made prior to the
expiration of the TIF in 2024.
Initiating Department. Department of Finance (Sections 4, 5 and 6)
Section 7 requests additional funding in the amount of $1.5 million be advanced from the Sewer
Construction Fund back to the General Fund pursuant to issuance of the City's general obligation
bonds for the purpose of construction of sanitary sewer improvements. You may recall that an
advance of $1.5 million was made from the General Fund to the Sewer Construction Fund in
December 2019 (Ordinance 72-19). The project needed to be funded in the Sewer Construction
Fund since debt had not been issued. At that time, City Council was advised that the advance would
be repaid to the General Fund after debt issuance (also see Section 4).
Section 7 also requests that $1.66 million be un -appropriated in the Sewer Construction Fund for
the Deer Run Sewer Upsizing — Dumfries Court project. This project was programmed in the 2020
Capital Improvements Program (CIP) for the installation of a sanitary sewer, separate pump station,
and force main in the Dumfries Court (East) and Carnoustie Drive area. This project has since been
reprioritized in relation to other sewer improvement projects in the Deer Run area and is being
analyzed for inclusion in the 2021 CIP. As the project will not be executed in 2020, the appropriation
is unnecessary.
Section 8 requests additional funding in the amount of $1,500 in the Central Ohio Interoperable
Radio System (COIRS) Fund in the Agency Funds.
Agency Funds are where assets are held for distribution by the City as an agent for another entity
for which the City has custodial responsibility. For this reason, the Agency Funds are considered

clearing accounts and do not provide measurement of operations, and they are not required to be
budgeted. However, the City prefers to monitor the accounts, and to the extent possible, eliminate
deficit balances. Each payment made has a corresponding revenue source. At the time of the
preparation of the 2020 Operating Budget, the COIRS Board had not established its budget for
calendar year 2020. Consequently, the accounts were budgeted as they were in 2019. Since then,
the COIRS Board has established its budget, and the City wishes to amend the funding to reflect the
budget of the COIRS Board. All payments made from the accounts within the COIRS Fund have
revenue to offset the expenses with no net impact to the City's financial balance.
Initiating Department.- Department of Safety (Section 8)
Recommendation
Staff recommends City Council approval of this Ordinance amending the Annual Appropriations for
the Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 2020, at the second reading and public hearing of the
Ordinance on April 27, 2020.
