Hansley, City Manager .:a Date: November 8, 1999 - Re: Ordinance No. 129-99, An Ordinance Amending The Annual Appropriations Ordinance Initiated by: Marsha I. Grigsby, Director of Finance ` Ordinance No. 129-99 requests additional appropriations for various operating accounts to ensure legal compliance with the Ohio Revised Code when the accounting records are closed at year-end. These requests are based on actual expenditures through November 5, 1999 and estimates for the remainder of the year. As stated, Section 1 requests appropriations to various accounts in the General Fund in the amount of $230,000. Including this request, additional General Fund operating requests for 1999 total $493,000 or 1.8% of the original General Fund operating request of $26,973,660. The request for Advertising in the Division of Human Resources/Procurement is for job vacancy announcements. As stated in the additional request made in July, additional advertising costs have been incurred as a result of the difficulty in hiring seasonal employees and the unexpected number of professional positions that have experienced turnover during the year. The requests for the Department of Law are the result of higher than expected activity. As Steve Smith mentioned during his 2000 budget review, general legal services are running approximately 10% above the 1999 budget estimates. The request for $50,000 for general legal services will result in an 11.9% increase over the original 1999 budget. Attached please find a copy of the slide presented at the 2000 Operating Budget workshop on November 3 which provided detailed information on 1999 legal expenditures. The additional requests for Grounds and Facilities are needed as the result of higher than anticipated utility charges. The increase for Facilities is related to Karrer Middle School. Section 2 appropriates additional funds to the account used to purchase concession supplies at the outdoor pool. Expenditures, excluding wages and benefits for concession workers, total $30,347 for 1999 with revenues generated totaling $43,742. Section 3 appropriates additional funds needed to cover overtime and other wages related to staffing the City's special events. This Section also appropriates additional funding for distribution to the Dublin Arts Council (DAC) in accordance with City Council's policy to remit 25% of the total hoteUmotel tax revenues collected to the DAC. It was originally estimated the 1999 distribution to the DAC would be $365,000; however, based on revised estimates, distribution will be approximately $420,000. Members of Dublin City Council November 8, 1999 Page Two Section 4 appropriates additional funds needed to pay medical, dental and vision claims filed for the remainder of the year. The City continued to experience high utilization in 1999 with the revised estimate for claims totaling $1,875,000 or a 16.6% increase over 1998. Section 5 appropriates funds for the purpose of transferring those funds to the Employee Benefits Self- Insurance Fund. This Fund (Liability Self-Insurance Fund) was originally established in 1990 to begin to "set aside" reserves to be used in the event general insurance coverage for property and liability became too expensive. This has not occurred; however, utilization in the Employee Benefits Self- Insurance Fund has been significantly higher than expected the past two years and this "reserve fund" has allowed the Employee Benefits Self-Insurance Fund to be subsidized without impacting benefits provided or the operating and capital budgets. Section 6 appropriates additional funds for claims paid related to the retrospective rating plan the City participated in from 1989 through 1994. In 1999, one large claim was paid resulting in the need for the additional funding. The City will potentially incur claims through 2004 for injuries incurred during the period we were covered under this plan. During the period we were covered under the retrospective rating plan, the City received significant savings on premiums paid. The additional funds needed for premium charges are the result of the process used by the Bureau of Workers'Compensation to reduce premiums paid in 1999. The 1999 Operating Budget was based on the assumption the reduction would be made prior to the City's premium payment, thereby reducing the amount paid. The premium reduction actually occurred by receiving refunds from the Bureau in the amount of $48,035. As a result, the amount originally appropriated for premiums is insufficient If any additional information is needed or you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Marsha. w G:\PER\DKP\99\200-memoord 129.doc ~ ~ V ~ O ~ ~ - ~ ~O 1I / vi ~ ~ O- V ~ ~ ~ ~ O V ~ ~ .L Q~ (1) -Efl- ~ ~ N~ 0 0 O V ~ ~ ~ ~ L ~ O =O ~ ~ d' 00 rn 00 O ~ OlM 01 CO 00 ~ w ~ V ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Y/ _ ~ o O 'V c0 O ~ ~ N ~ o o ~ Q N ~ ~ O V ~ "O c a ~ o ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ OL ~ ~ c to ~ ' - ~ N ~ Q cOn ~ ~ ~ L7~C~7~ ~ O ~ ~ Q ~ ~ ~ D ~ ~ O ~ ~ ice, p ~ ~ au~~~a~ y-- Q ~ fa X ~m Q~~V_ fl'C ~ V ~ N ~ ~ co O ~ ~ N O L- ~ ~ ~ O U ~ O ~ 0 ~ Q ~ ~ _ V ~ N O 6fl-O.O- ~O ~~'u~~v N 3 V ~ O O O O Q~> a Q J(,O V ~ ~ ~ V J J (n ~ (n cn X J ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ V O ~ . ~ O ~ ~ y _ O ~ ~ y QO ~ ~ ~ ~O l0 00 N d' O O ~ N ~ *-i O *-i O O~ I N N O d\ M d' ~ 00 N M 'd" d' Q ~ L1') d' M N N ,-i M ` ~ -i-+ ~fl- 00 ~ ~ ~ N ~ _ Ov ~ 00 O ~ U ~ J ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ O ~ O C ~ ~ ~ ~ L O > a--~ Q ~ ~ J ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ p. ~ ~ O ~ x O ~ O (O ~ O Q Q N i ~ .tn V O C C ~ N ~ a-' cv O ~ O ~ 0 00 O -O ~ ~ ~ N fQ O ~ ~ ~ Q O~ p p N L O O .v - ~ N ~ ~ ~ ~ V i a ~ p ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~Q. ~ V ~ N - O ~ ~ ~ o~ J= V ~ m V~~~ O Iii ~ O Q •M~M.NI _ Mum I .......«..w.w+ ...3,.d..d..x.,...<.....- O O ¦O y O O O O O O ~ O O O O O O O ~ ~ ~ OMO O O O N I\ p ~ O d- d- . _ tJ~ ~ o O _ ~ ~ a~ ~ ~ ~ J ~ O O ~ ~ ~ V_ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ _ o ~ ~ ~ o O ~ , V ~ Cn ~ to ~ a--' i i~ L V- V V ~ i ~ ~ ~ ~ a~ ~ ~ O ~ o ~ 0 ~ ra ~ ~ ~ ~ O O a,- a ~ o - . - V V ~ O ~ ~ LO 'V 3 L ~ _..I a. ~ ~ o ~ . ~ ~ o° C~ O O ~ o N Department of Finance CITY OF DUBLIII 5200 Emerald Parkway • Dublin, Ohio 43017-1006 Phone: 614-761-6500 • Fax: 614-889-0740 M e m o To: Members of Dublin City Council From: Timothy C. Hansley, City Manager Date: December 9, 1999 Re: Amended Ordinance No. 129-99 Initiated by: Marsha I. Grigsby, Director of Finance Based on revised estimates, requests included in Section 1 and Section 3 of Ordinance No. 129-99 need to be increased. The request for 101-0410-710-2349 needs to be increased from $20,000 to $50,000 and the request for 217-0211-740-2821 needs to be increased from $25,000 to $50,000. The increase for the Department of Law reflects the payments due for FOP negotiations from August through December in the amount of approximately $44,000 and payments to bond counsel related to recent economic development agreements (i.e. Perimeter West TIF). The increase in the Hotel/Motel Tax fund is the result of the increase for distribution to the Dublin Arts Council. My original request in the Ordinance did not take into account payments due and not encumbered at the time for other grants awarded (i.e. the Vintage Wine Festival, the Frog Jump and the Merchants Of Old Dublin). If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Marsha. w G:\PER\DKP\99\218-9-ord-129amend.doc
