The Environmental Protection Division staff examines and verifies the scope of each project request from other
city departments. Examples of environmental services may include environmental site assessments, help with
pollution remediation on city property, disposal of environmental wastes from city operations, etc. The division
maintains due diligence studies and oversees a variety of environmental capital improvement projects (CIP). These
efforts support a common goal for a clean, safe, and livable city.

FY2022 DISCUSSION

The FY2022 Adopted Budget includes a revenue increase of $483K due to growth in Environmental Fee collections
over the past few years.

For expenses, Salary & Benefits are reduced by a net of $128K as annual raises are more than cancelled out by a
reduction of $215K in Grant Salary Savings. Transfer Out & Other includes an increase of $215K to make up for
the reduction in salaries. This change is to ensure that the budget matches what will happen during the fical year,
as recent years have seen salary actuals moved to the transfer out category later in the year.

The Transfer Out & Other category increases by $503K due to the change above and an increase of $495K in
transfer out to capital, to fund projects in the FY2022 CIP. Reductions in Interfund Transfer Out of $160K (amount
that is sent to Water for providing billing services) and Contribution to Fund balance of $67K balance out the
category.

Service levels remain unchanged in the FY2022 Adopted Budget.
