Re: Proposed 2024 Operating Budget
Background
This memorandum provides background information and context for the attached Proposed 2024
Operating Budget. Preparation of the 2024 Operating Budget provides the opportunity to continue
to review the City’s operations and determine how the City use its resources most effectively. It also
provides an opportunity to ensure the budget is aligned with City Council’s goals and the Strategic
Framework adopted by City Council in mid-2022. As set forth in the Strategic Framework, Dublin
aspires to be the most sustainable, connected and resilient global city of choice. This proposed
operating budget continues to uphold the City’s commitment to responsible fiscal stewardship and
the continuation of best-in-class services.
Digital Budget Book Software
For the 2024 Operating Budget, the City continued utilizing Cleargov software. This is the same
software the City used to create the 2024-2028 Capital Improvements Program. As part of the
software package, the City is utilizing a Digital Budget Book component to provide the Operating
Budget to Council for review, similar to the 2023 Operating Budget.
This software allows us to produce a more consistent and professional looking document published
digitally on our website. This digital document allows residents to find the information they may be
looking for in a more accessible, searchable and web-friendly format. Additionally, the digital budget
can be read aloud for visually impaired residents or translated in numerous languages for non-
English speaking residents. These efforts continue to increase the transparency and accountability
of our finances, are more sustainable, and further the City’s diversity, equity and inclusion goals.
Revenue Estimates
The City’s largest revenue source for operations is income tax revenue. This source comprises over
90% of the City’s General Fund operating revenues. The 2023 Operating Budget budgeted $94.0
million in revenue from local income tax. Per City policy, 25% of that amount, or $23.5 million is
allocated to fund capital projects, and debt issued for capital projects. The remaining 75%, or $70.5
million, is posted to the General Fund to be used for general operations.
Last year’s budgeted revenue remained very conservative due to the high level of uncertainty in the
economy and the unknown effects of the relatively unsettled work-from-home environment. Since

Memo re. Proposed 2024 Operating Budget
October 17, 2023
Page 2 of 3
then, revenues have continued to increase at a steady rate, with an average increase of 3% over
the past several years. As a result, the City is projecting ~$107 million in income tax revenue for
2023 and has revised the income tax budget to $104.0 million. Per Council’s request, staff have
taken into consideration realistic conservative revenues to better represent the City’s expectations
regarding the variance between budgeted and actual annual revenues. Based on these factors, the
income tax estimate for 2024 is $106.0 million or ~1.9% more than the revised 2023 income tax
budget and ~1.9% less than currently projected 2023 actuals.
General Fund Balance
The General Fund balance is a key component to the financial health and stability of the City. The
City’s policy is to maintain a year-end balance equal to or greater than 50% of the General Fund
expenditures, including operating transfers. As of the end of September 2023, the General Fund
balance was $68.4 million which represented 62.6% of the City’s 2023 revised budget General Fund
expenditures.
Maintaining a strong General Fund balance is necessary for a variety of reasons. The most important
is as a backstop against significant reductions in City services. Additionally, the City continues to
invest in our future success by enhancing our economic vitality through funding major capital
improvements throughout the City. Dublin will continue to make transfers and advances from the
General Fund to various TIF funds and the Capital Improvement Fund for infrastructure
improvements. This allows the City to take advantage of opportunities as they arise and fund
infrastructure improvements before TIF revenues are generated. The expectation is that these
advances will be repaid to the General Fund over the 30-year life of each TIF.
Budget Utilization
The City of Dublin has historically passed budgets where budgeted expenditures exceed budgeted
revenues. This has been a reflection of a conservative budgeting philosophy where revenues are
estimated below expectations and expenditures are budgeted high. From 2006 to 2023 budgeted
variances for the operating budget have been negative while actual variances have been positive.
Per Council’s direction, staff have been working to create revenue estimates that better reflect
actuals while remaining conservative in nature and reducing the amount of unused appropriations
by increasing budget utilization.
During the 2023 Budget process, staff closely examined budget utilization over the prior five years
to make adjustments to better align budgeted expenditures with prior year’s actuals and estimated
revenues. These modifications were intended to reduce excess budget capacity without having a
negative impact on service delivery. The expectation communicated to Directors the past couple of
years has been future budgets would move toward a budget utilization of about 90%, with 5%
encumbered and 5% lapsed.
In order to further reduce this budgeted variance and create a balanced budget, the Administration
continued the strategies of including the use of vacancy credits and evaluating budget utilization to
develop the Proposed 2024 Operating Budget, intending to move the City even closer to that
utilization target.
For the Proposed 2024 Operating Budget, revenues are budgeted realistically conservative and
expenditures more closely mirror the expectation for utilization as discussed above. Resources are

included in the proposal for directors to take action for unbudgeted or unforeseen situations when
needed. As in prior years, the City Manager’s office has $150,000 budgeted for citywide
contingencies. Historically, this funding has been underutilized, but it is anticipated that in 2024 this
funding may see increased usage.
It is important to note that in this budget environment, the Administration will likely be bringing
forward additional items (as compared to prior years) in the supplemental appropriation process for
Council’s consideration particularly with regard to Operating Budget items. Supplemental
appropriations are approved by Council on a quarterly basis and as the year progresses if a Division
needs additional funds for unbudgeted or under-budgeted activities the Administration will be
bringing these items forward for Council’s consideration.
Recommendation
Staff looks forward to the Operating Budget Work Session discussion on November 6, 2023 and
recommends that Council adopt the Proposed 2024 Operating Budget at the second reading/public
hearing on November 27, 2023.

Re: 2024 Annual Operating Budget Additional Reports and Information
Background
This memo will identify and explain several budget reports that are being distributed for Council’s
consideration with regard to the 2024 Proposed Operating Budget. Each report will be identified
and briefly explained in this memo. These reports are similar to reports that have been provided to
members of Council in previous years.
Fund Summary
This table shows the budgeted and estimated revenues and expenditures for 2023 and 2024. This
table validates that the appropriations proposed in the 2024 Operating Budget comply with the
requirement that sufficient resources be available in every Fund to support the appropriations
proposed as part of the operating budget.
Budget Utilization Reports
These reports show the historical spending from 2018 to 2023 (as of October 16, 2023) comparing
the revised budget to actual spending for each budgetary segment. The report displays the
percentage of actual spending as a function of the revised budget and is color coded moving from
green to yellow to orange to red as budget utilization increases.
Utilization Report 1: Utilization by Fund and Division
This report shows the budget utilization by showing actual spending as compared to the revised
budget by division since 2018.
Utilization Report 2: Utilization by Fund and Division and Category
This report contains information relative to the actual spending as compared to the revised budget
in each category by each division in the city since 2018. Budget utilization may vary across
categories over time as directors will have more discretion over categories such as contractual
services than they will with regard to personal services.
Detailed Budget Reports
The following reports all relate to each other. Each report is a slightly more detailed version of the
prior report. Each report contains the revised budget and actual expenditures from prior years and
a comparison of the 2023 original budget and 2024 original budget. Each report summaries

identical information at more detailed levels of analysis, but each report sums to the same $104.7
million figure. Basically, as you proceed through these reports you continue to move into deeper
levels of analysis until you reach the lowest possible level which is the sub-account level detail
expenditures report. This is the lowest and most detailed level of budget analysis and is the level
at which budget requests are submitted by each division.
Detailed Budget Report 1: Operating Budget by Fund
This report displays the $104.7 million in operating expenditures in the proposed 2024 operating
budget and allows for comparison of this amount to prior years.
Detailed Budget Report 2: Operating Budget by Fund and Division
This report displays operating expenditures by organization number in Munis sometimes referred
to as a division. These comparisons over time allow you to see the rate of change at the
division/department level.
Detailed Budget Report 3: Expenditures by Fund and Division and Category
This report displays operating expenditures by the character code in Munis sometimes referred to
as a category. These comparisons over time allow you to see the rate of change in the type of
expenditure at the division/department level.
Detailed Budget Report 4: Expenditures by Fund and Division and Account
This report displays operating expenditures by each account. These comparisons over time allow
you to see the rate of change at the account level for every division/department.
Detailed Budget Report 5: Sub-Account Level Detailed Expenditures
This report displays the lowest level of budget analysis. It details the specific items that were
requested and then summarized to the account level in the previous report (#4).
Top Employers Report
This report displays the City’s top 15 employers in 2022. It is reported annually as part of the City’s

Notes and Adjustments:
1. For 2024, police request authorization for two (2) additional sworn officer positions (above authorized staffing) temporarily to allow for
future anticipated retirements. Due to the amount of time required (typically 18 months) to replace a retiring officer with a newly hired,
certified, and field trained officer, this practice of hiring ahead has proven crucial to us maintaining staffing levels. Hiring will be contingent on
available funding.
2. For 2024, police request authorization for two (2) additional communication technician positions (above authorized staffing) temporarily to

available funding.
3. The Technical Services Bureau Commander is retitled to a Deputy Chief of Police position.

Budget Summary
10110220
Account 701101 provides funding for the staffing reflected in the Personnel Data.
Account 713004 provides funding for the cost for the State of Ohio tape which is used to ensure compliance.
Account 713005 includes funding to utilize a third party for collection of delinquent accounts and research database costs.
Account 715001 provides funding for postage and Post Office boxes.
Account 721004 funds letters with personal URLs that are sent to filers in order to direct them to their own site via the online tax tool to
reduce the number of paper returns received, thus reducing the manpower necessary to ensure the returns are truly “Dublin” returns.
Non-payroll service provider withholding accounts will receive a letter with a personal URL instead of a booklet that will allow them to
print forms with their Dublin identification as needed and will identify them as “active” accounts. This reduces the City’s accepting dollars
for accounts with Dublin mailing addresses that are not physically located in Dublin.
Account 755000 provides funding for income tax refunds.

Planning is responsible for managing the City’s development process, undertaking plan updates and special studies, and enforcing the City’s
codes relative to the built environment. This includes land use planning, zoning reviews, code enforcement, public engagement, and support
of several boards and commissions. The division is responsible for analyzing the changing needs of the City, identifying, and implementing
long range planning objectives that address these needs. This includes identifying trends that need to be addressed (changes in
demographics, shifting market conditions, current thinking in land planning and urban design, housing needs, etc.) and undertaking the
relevant studies or plan updates. All of these activities relate to the following functional areas: development proposals review; Community
Plan maintenance and implementation; project analysis; area studies; code enforcement; zoning compliance; land use modeling; code
amendments; and customer service operations.
Mission Statement
The mission of Planning is to provide professional and technical expertise to guide the land use decisions of public officials, residents and
the development community. We engage our citizens to establish and realize a long-range vision for Dublin’s land use and development
character. We facilitate the zoning process through the implementation of the Community Plan and the administration and enforcement of
the City’s land use codes.

Capital Projects Funds
Matthew Stiffler
Chief Financial Officer/Director of Finance
This group of funds is used to account for the financial resources to be provided for the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities
and other infrastructure projects with the exclusion of those financed by Proprietary Funds.
City of Dublin, Ohio | 2024 Operating and Capital Improvements Budget Page 154
Five-Year Capital Project Planning
The Five-Year Capital Improvements Program (CIP) establishes the City of Dublin’s blueprint for investments in its capital infrastructure. The
CIP is used as a tool to help ensure the City’s long-term and short-term capital investments are made in the context of careful consideration of
the City’s needs as well as the resources available to fund all projects. A complete copy of the document is available on the City’s website at
dublinohiousa.gov/economic-development/capital-improvements-program.
The financial guidelines used in the preparation of the CIP provide assurances that the City can meet, in a full and timely manner, both its debt
service obligations and all other obligations competing for the available resources. It is the City’s objective to complete as many needed capital
improvement projects as financially possible while maintaining flexibility and the ability to adapt to changes as they occur.
The Five-Year CIP and the Annual Operating Budget are two critical documents prepared annually. The relationship between these two
documents is summarized by the following points:
Five-Year CIP
Represents a long-term financial plan, including funding sources
Establishes priorities and serves as a planning document or blueprint for the City’s investment in capital infrastructure
Provides a breakdown of major project costs and phasing, including design costs
Does not appropriate money; the Operating Budget is the document which authorizes the actual funding authority for capital projects
Annual Operating Budget – CIP Budget
Appropriates money to implement the first year of the Five-Year CIP
Appropriates money to implement a “phase of a major, multi-year project”
Appropriates money for capital maintenance expenditures, including those of a continuing nature (i.e., fleet and equipment replacement,
computers, etc.)
Project Prioritization
In developing the prioritization of projects, several elements are taken into consideration:
City Council’s goals, both past and present
Economic Development Strategy findings
Commitments that were made by the City in agreements
Biannual Community Survey results
Input from citizen committees and economic development opportunities
Using these guidelines resulted in a list of projects to be funded that are focused on needed infrastructure improvements, such as road and
utility needs.
City of Dublin, Ohio | 2024 Operating and Capital Improvements Budget Page 155
Impact of Capital Investments on the Operating Budget
The City’s Operating Budget covers a one-year time period, whereas the City’s Capital Improvements Program (CIP) covers a five-year period.
While the CIP is prepared and approved separately from the Operating Budget, staff take into consideration the impact of the upcoming year’s
capital projects on departmental operations, including the maintenance and upkeep of the assets.
When debt financing is used to fund capital projects, the principal and interest payments are included as expenditures in the Operating Budget.
The City has taken further steps to evaluate the effect of capital assets on the Operating Budget by adding an Asset Management &
Quality Assurance work unit to its organizational chart. This work unit is responsible for implementing and managing strategies for sustaining
public infrastructure assets, with the fundamental goal of preserving and extending the service life of long-term infrastructure assets. In the
course of inventorying and inspecting these assets, routine maintenance schedules will be established that will help the City better understand
the annual operating costs or additional savings related to the City’s infrastructure assets, both existing and new additions. This will assist the
City in better quantifying the impact of capital expenditures on the Operating Budget in future years.
City of Dublin, Ohio | 2024 Operating and Capital Improvements Budget Page 156
The safety of our citizens is the City's number one priority. National Bridge Inspection Standards are followed to ensure this, as The Link is
visually checked annually and incorporated into the Capital Improvement Program.
Summary of CIP Financial Guidelines
There are several key guidelines the City utilizes in determining the fiscal capacity to complete capital projects over the next five years. These
are summarized:
The five-year plan will be updated annually.
Twenty-five percent of the City’s 2% income tax revenue should be made available to fund capital improvements. This allocation is
in accordance with Ordinance No. 17-87 and the ballot language approved by the voters in November 1987.
Of the 25% of total income tax revenues which are utilized for capital improvements, 60% of that amount will be allocated to fund
long-term debt, and 40% to fund projects and capital expenses on a cash basis. This allocation is in accordance with Ordinance
No. 31-16. The reasons for these guidelines are:
a. It is important to stress that funding projects with long-term debt obligates the use of public funds for the next 20 years in
most cases. The more long-term debt which is incurred now significantly reduces the options available to future City
Councils to fund needed projects.
b. The City has determined that paying cash for projects where financially possible (pay-as-you-go financing) will
increase flexibility in the future. In utilizing pay-as-you-go financing, revenue projections and estimated fund balances will
be reviewed and evaluated to assure that sufficient reserves are maintained.
c. It is not economical to issue debt for some projects.
d. The estimated life of some projects does not meet the criteria to issue long-term debt.
The City’s largest revenue source for operations is income tax revenue. This source comprises more than 90% of the City’s
General Fund operating revenues. Therefore, it is one of the City’s key economic indicators that is reviewed when
determining the level of growth for the upcoming year.
To the degree that the income tax revenue rate of growth exceeds projections in any given year, the excess revenue should
be utilized to fund projects on a cash basis the following year or to reduce the amount of debt on projects identified to be
financed with debt proceeds.
The availability of adequate financial reserves or balances that can be used to address unforeseen contingencies or take
advantage of opportunities is a critical element in evaluating financial strength. Another key financial indicator for the City is
its General Fund balance. The City’s policy is to maintain a year-end balance equal to or greater than 50% of the General
Fund expenditures, including operating transfers. This balance is in accordance with Ordinance No. 32-16. This level of fund
balance is necessary as the City continues funding major improvements throughout Dublin. The City will continue to make
significant advances from the General Fund to various Tax Increment Financing (TIF) funds for infrastructure improvements
throughout the City. This allows the City to take advantage of opportunities as they arise and fund infrastructure
improvements before TIF revenues are generated. The expectation is that these advances will be repaid to the General
Fund over the 30-year life of each TIF.
Since a portion of the debt outstanding and future capital improvements are utility related (water and sewer), the systems'
user fees and capacity charges (tap permits) will continue to be evaluated. Water-related improvements will be
programmed based on the Water Fund's available cash reserves and estimated annual revenues. Every effort will be made
City of Dublin, Ohio | 2024 Operating and Capital Improvements Budget Page 157
to structure the debt service obligations for utility infrastructure improvements in such a manner as to utilize the Sewer
Fund and the Water Fund's available cash reserves and estimated annual revenues to the fullest and thereby reducing or
eliminating the dependency on income tax revenues. The goal in the Water and Sewer funds has been to maintain fund
balances equal to approximately 25% of the total value of each system.
In 2024, approximately 80% of the property tax revenue from the City’s “inside millage” will be allocated to the Capital
Improvements Tax Fund.
The property tax revenue from the City’s “inside millage” (1.75 mills) was allocated 100% to the Parkland Acquisition Fund
from 2001 to 2006. From 2007 to 2009, the City began allocating .95 mills of the total 1.75 mills to the Parkland Acquisition
Fund with the remaining 0.80 mills allocated to the Capital Improvements Tax Fund. As part of the 2010-2014 CIP
process, the Council approved allocating 1.40 mills to the Capital Improvements Tax Fund and 0.35 mills to the Parkland
Acquisition Fund. Recognizing the benefits and flexibility of allocating more of the City’s “inside millage” to the Capital
Improvements Tax Fund, the Council has continued to approve, with each year’s CIP, the same allocation. This allocation is
reviewed during the CIP process each year and can be reallocated if the City Council deems it appropriate.
Pursuant to the City’s Debt Policy (Ordinance No. 37-19), the maximum amount of debt service (including existing TIF
supported and proposed new debt) shall not exceed 90% of the allocation of income tax revenue allocated to pay for
debt service.
As a matter of general policy, the City will do the following in order to be able to fund additional projects needed to serve
the citizens of Dublin:
1. Pursue federal, state and local assistance in the form of grants, low interest loans, cost-sharing, etc.
2. Utilize assessment procedures for projects which have a reasonably well-defined group of beneficiaries and
which legally lend themselves to this type of financing.
3. Look increasingly at ways to obtain revenue through user fees as a means to fund capital projects or as a way to free-
up other income tax dollars so that they can be used to fund capital projects.
4. Utilize, where appropriate, economic development incentives, such as tax increment financing.
As projects are proposed for funding, the statutory debt limitations will be reviewed to ensure compliance.
The five-year program provides for significant capital programming. The programming of projects needs to be distributed over the five-year
period so that as the City updates the capital program each year, it can evaluate current conditions, including the capital needs, revenue
growth and respond to new priorities.
Transfers and Advances
The majority of the funding programmed for transfers is for debt service obligations on capital projects financed by long-term debt. The
advances programmed are based on projects programmed in the 2024-2028 CIP that have been identified as infrastructure projects benefiting
the reflected Tax Increment Financing funds (TIFs).
Debt
Debt proceeds for construction projects (with the exception of sewer and water projects) are posted to the Capital Construction Fund (404) and
tracked through that fund.

Capital Improvement Funds (All Funds)
Capital Improvements Tax Fund (Fund 401)
This fund was created by the City Council for the express purpose of the purchase of equipment, apparatus, property, construction of
buildings, structures, roads and other public infrastructure improvements as needed. City income tax collections are directly credited to this
fund each year in accordance with Ordinance No. 17-87. Additional revenue is provided by real estate taxes, transfers from the General
Fund and interest income.
Parkland Acquisition Fund (Fund 402)
Chapter 152 of the Codified Ordinances of Dublin provides for the payment of fees in lieu of parkland dedication. These fees are credited to
the Parkland Acquisition Fund for the purpose of acquiring recreational facility sites, open space and/or parkland.
Capital Construction Fund (Fund 404)
This fund is provided to account for the bond issuance proceeds received and to be expended on related infrastructure projects other than
those financed by the Proprietary Funds and Trust Funds.
Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Funds (Fund 412 through Fund 475)
Tax Increment Financing (TIF) is an economic development mechanism available to local governments in Ohio to finance public
infrastructure improvements and, in certain circumstances, residential rehabilitation. TIF districts are implemented at the local level and may
be created by a township, municipality or county. Payments derived from the increased assessed value of any improvement to real property
beyond the original value are directed toward a separate fund to finance the construction of public infrastructure defined within the TIF
legislation.

Debt | Debt Service
Matthew Stiffler
Chief Financial Officer/Director of Finance
These funds reflect the cost of paying the principal and interest on various outstanding bond and note issues. Sources of funding include
transfers from the Capital Improvements Tax Fund and various Tax Increment Financing Funds.
Budget requests for debt service payments reflect debt service obligations for both long-term and short-term debt issued by the City as well
as special assessment debt. The City maintains unvoted general obligation bonds, un-voted special assessment bonds which rolled off in
2021, and voted general obligation bonds which rolled off in 2020.
The debt service payments for Water and Sewer Fund obligations are budgeted as debt service payments directly to the Water and Sewer
Funds instead of transferring the money to the General Obligation Debt Service Fund and reflecting the debt payments in that fund.
Financial Information
In 2022, the City of Dublin implemented the use of DebtBook, a debt management tool software. This program will consolidate all the City's
debt in one easy-to-use platform for financial reporting, payment processing and automated journaling.

Finance Transfers & Advances
Matthew Stiffler
Chief Financial Officer/Director of Finance
The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City; money can be transferred from the General Fund to any other fund with
approval of the City Council. A transfer is the permanent movement of money from one fund to another.
Operating transfers are made to the Recreation Fund, the Safety Fund, the Hotel Motel Fund, the Cemetery Fund and the Swimming Pool
Fund to supplement revenues directly credited to those funds. Funds are transferred when their fund balance drops below the average
monthly expenditures anticipated.
Transfers to the Capital Improvements Tax Fund and other capital project funds are based on projects identified in the City's Five-Year
Capital Improvements Program (CIP). To the extent that cash reserves become available in the General Fund, additional capital projects are
programmed in the CIP.
An advance is a temporary movement of money from one fund to another. The City has utilized advances, for the most part, to provide
initial funding for capital projects associated with the tax increment financing (TIF) districts.

Internal service funds are used to account for the financing of goods or services provided by one department or agency to other

City of Dublin, Ohio | 2024 Operating and Capital Improvements Budget Page 184
Employee Benefits Self-Insurance | Internal Service Fund
Jennifer Miglietti
Director of Human Resources
The Employee Benefits Self-Insurance Fund has been established to account for monies received from other funds as payment for providing
medical, pharmaceutical, dental and vision benefits. This fund makes payments for services provided to employees (claims), the third-party
administrator(s) and for stop-loss coverage. The budgeted amounts are based on the expected dollar value of claims that would be paid
under the plan, third-party administrator fees and the premium for stop-loss insurance.
Premiums are charged to benefit accounts based on the estimated cost of coverage. In 2024, funds have been programmed for all non-
union personnel and all union personnel, including the United Steelworkers of America, the Fraternal Order of Police – Capital City Lodge
No. 9 and the Fraternal Order of Police – Ohio Labor Council to participate in the City's Consumer Driven Health Plan with Health Savings
Accounts and the Healthy By Choice (HBC) program.
The Employee Benefits Self-Insurance Fund will continue the wellness benefit and the childcare Flexible Spending Account benefit for all full-
time employees who participate in HBC. The City's health plan includes a Health Savings Account (HSA) or Health Reimbursement Account
(HRA) and will include two funding levels to match the two HSA employer contribution levels for a single employee or an employee who has
a family.

Notes and Adjustments:
The annual funding level for 2024 for all employee groups is as follows:
Single $13,833
Family $34,143
In order to ensure the proper level of reserves, the funding level was decreased for 2024 to approximately $13,833 for single coverage and
$34,143 for family coverage. These decreases were based on projections from United Health Care and Oswald Consulting for the upcoming
benefit year, an assessment of the previous year’s fund balances, and they represent a 3.1% decrease for single coverage and a 2.0%
decrease for family coverage.
The fund balance of the Employee Benefits Self-Insurance Fund is monitored continuously during the year. If additional contributions should
become necessary, the annual funding rate will be adjusted accordingly with the approval of the City Council.

The Workers' Compensation Fund has been established to cover the costs associated with the City's Workers' Compensation coverage under
a self-insurance plan. Funds are transferred from the General Fund to cover premiums, claims and third-party administration fees associated
with the City's Workers' Compensation coverage. This budget reflects estimated costs for the City’s Self-Insurance Workers’ Compensation
coverage, which includes expected medical expenses and compensation associated with work-related injuries and illnesses from Jan. 1,
2024, to Dec. 31, 2024. This budget also reflects estimated fees for excess workers’ compensation insurance coverage and volunteer

Accrued Leave Reserve | Special Revenue Fund
Matthew Stiffler
Chief Financial Officer/Director of Finance
The Ohio Revised Code Section 5705.13 provides for the establishment of reserve funds for certain purposes, one of which is for the
payment of accumulated sick, vacation and compensatory leave upon termination of employment or retirement. Because the City of Dublin
will have a significant number of long-term employees either reach retirement age or the point of eligibility within either the Ohio Public
Employees Retirement System or the Police/Fire Pension Fund System, the City’s liability for payments for accrued leave balances is
estimated to be substantial beginning in the next few years. These costs represent a liability accrued over a number of years. In order to
prevent a disproportionate impact of these payments on any one budget year, the 2005 budget established a reserve fund and began
depositing into it in anticipation of this liability.
In 2008, the City implemented changes to its leave policies for non-bargaining employees which will add to the City’s potential liability for
conversion of accrued leaves. Beginning in 2009, non-bargaining employees were eligible for conversion of a portion of accrued sick leave to
cash at the time of any separation in good standing from City employment.
This includes all types of leave accruals and both pensionable and non-pensionable leave amounts.
Personnel Data
There are no staff positions directly allocated to this fund.
Notes and Adjustments:
Contributions to this fund represent a percentage of full-time wages.
Beginning in 2009, the expenditures budgeted in this fund also included an estimate for sick leave conversions for non-bargaining employees at
separation from employment in good standing at any time. Because sick leave accruals were substantially reduced in 2009 (per the
Compensation Plan), this liability has declined over time. Sick leave balances accrued under the previous, more generous accruals are either
used or converted to payment at separation.
For all City bargaining units, conditions for conversion of accrued sick leave remain contingent on eligibility for retirement, minimum years of
service and any minimum sick leave balance requirements.
Budget Summary
26210210
Account 701201 provides for Medicare on employee payouts.
Account 701205 reflects the estimated payments that will be made for accrued leaves in 2024 based on anticipated retirements. The
amount also includes an estimate of conversions at nonretirement separations based on the revised leave policies for non-bargaining
employees approved in 2008. Un-used appropriations lapse at year-end.

Opioid Relief Fund | Special Revenue Fund
Matthew Stiffler
Chief Financial Officer/Director of Finance
The OneOhio Opioid Relief Fund was created to accept deposits related to the State of Ohio, Local Governments and the Plaintiff's Executive
Committee of the National Prescription Opiate Multidistrict Litigation that negotiated the OneOhio Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).
Local governments encompassing more than two-thirds of the state's population signed on to the OneOhio MOU, a plan to jointly approach
settlement of the litigation with the drug manufacturers and distributors of opioids. The MOU provides a mechanism for the distribution of
any opioid settlement funds and outlines how the funds can be used.
The City expects to receive payments over the next 18 years totaling approximately $200,000. These funds will be used in accordance with
the MOU discussed above and appropriated as part of the operating budget process. Funds are not currently appropriated in 2024. A
supplemental appropriation will be brought forward to City Council at the time the use of funds is determined.

Wireless 911 | Special Revenue Fund
Justin Páez
Chief of Police
Ohio Revised Code (ORC) §128.42 establishes a $0.50 per month user fee on every wireless phone bill to reimburse local public safety
answering points for costs associated with receiving 911 calls placed from wireless telephones. As directed by ORC §128.55, the Wireless
911 Governmental Assistance Fund is administered by the Franklin County Commissioners, with funds disbursed in accordance with the
formula set by the local 911 Planning Committee.
To facilitate disbursement, local agencies are required to enter into intergovernmental agreements. In February 2017, the City of Dublin
entered into an agreement with the Franklin County Commissioners for the disbursement of these funds. Disbursements received from the
Wireless 911 Governmental Assistance Fund must be used in accordance with ORC §128.57, which includes those costs incurred in
designing, upgrading, purchasing and maintaining equipment as well as training staff who answer wireless 911 calls. Disbursements
received may be used for personnel costs once all equipment purchases are completed.
