DEPARTMENT PURPOSE AND GOALS
Non-Departmental cost centers have traditionally been used to record General Fund expenditure items not
exclusively within the programmatic responsibilities of a General Fund department. In FY2016, many of these
allocations such as retiree health benefits, economic incentives, debt service for the energy savings program,
electric utility costs, risk management costs, and appraisal district fees were transferred out to the responsible
departments. The goal is to have all the costs of an activity shown in the respective department at the end of the
fiscal year.

The department is now used mainly for budgeting, with no funds expended from a Non-Departmental account.
For FY2023, the major Non-Departmental accounts include, but are not limited to, separation leave costs for
General Fund employees and civil service employees, election costs, training and education, the Tuition
Reimbursement Program, and non-recurring other contractual costs. Also earmarked from Non-Departmental, is
an annual subsidy to support the stability of the Municipal Golf Fund and Pay-as-you-go capital intended for
community partnerships.

The budget in Non-Department will go through a “true up” annually for any expenditures paid from the
responsible department. The budget for such expenditures move from Non-Departmental to the participating
department as needed and approved by the City Manager or his delegate.

FY2023 DISCUSSION ANG SIGNIFICANT CHANGES

· Increases by $4,000,000 for Fire overtime;
· Increases by $3,992,575 to set aside funds for market pay range adjustments; and

comprehensive plan citizen engagement).
