P. 410

2.19 Budgets of Enterprise and Internal Service Funds are prepared on a working capital
               basis, whereby depreciation expenses are not budgeted  and capital  outlay and  debt service
               principal payments are  budgeted as expenses.  Reserves of Enterprise and Internal Service
               Funds will be disclosed using working capital as defined in the Fund Balance Policy, rather than
               retained earnings.


                   2.20 Budgets of Enterprise and Internal Service Funds shall be self-supporting, i.e., on-going
               revenues equal or exceed on-going expenditures (excluding depreciation) and one-time
               expenditures may be funded with working capital.


                   2.21 Budgets shall integrate performance measures, goals and objectives, service levels and
               productivity measures where appropriate, and provide a means of measuring and monitoring per-
               formance, goals and productivity.


                   2.22 New positions and programs funded in annual budgets will be disclosed at their full
               annual cost in the initial and subsequent years of funding, or at the respective full-time equivalent
               costs for new positions.  Even if the positions and/or programs are anticipated to begin mid-year,
               the full annual costs, or the full-time equivalent costs for new positions, will be disclosed in the
               budget.  Positions temporarily vacant will also be disclosed at their full annual cost in the annual
               budget.


                   2.23 When possible, replacement funds shall be created to ensure the ability to make timely
               replacements.


               3.   Capital Improvements.

                   3.1  The City will develop and maintain a comprehensive five-year plan for capital improve-
               ments. This plan shall  be presented to and reviewed by the City Council annually.  Capital
               improvements for planning purposes shall be considered as all land, land improvements, building
               projects,  infrastructure  (i.e., streets, water and wastewater improvements) and equipment
               exceeding one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) in cost.


                   3.2  All capital  improvements should be made in accordance  with the five-year plan as
               adopted or reviewed by the City Council.


                   3.3  The City Council shall adopt an annual capital budget that is based on the five-year
               capital improvement plan.  This capital budget shall identify the sources of funding for each capital
               project authorized for the ensuing fiscal year.  Assessments and pro-rata charges may be applied
               where applicable to fund capital projects.


                   3.4  The City's capital improvement program shall be coordinated with the operating budgets.
               Operating costs associated with each capital improvement project will be identified in the capital
               budget and included in the appropriate operating budget if the project is authorized.
