MANSFIELD PARK FACILITIES DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION (MPFDC)
Budget Summary
The MPFDC is funded by a ½ cent sales tax approved by the citizens. The tax became effective on July 1,
1992. The MPFDC works in conjunction with the Community Services Division in the General Fund to
provide maintenance and operations services to the Parks System.
The MPFDC budget increased 24.37% in FY 2022-2023. Budgeted sales tax, a primary source of revenue
for MPFDC, was increased 35% based on recent trends, allowing for a corresponding increase in
expenditures. Personnel costs were affected by the addition of three full-time equivalent positions – two
landscape technicians and a park projects manager. Operational costs have gone up with the addition of
park land to maintain, particularly in Neighborhood Parks. The FY 2022-2023 reserve (included in the
transfers/other category) represents the difference between revenue and planned expenditures and is
double the reserve amount for FY 2021-2022. Reserve funds are added to the cash balance and are used to
help fund park projects, alleviating the need to issue debt.
