The Long-Range Financial Forecast, as presented below, provides a view of the city’s fiscal plan
               for general government operations, debt service obligations, and capital maintenance needs for
               the next three years.  The forecast assumes that the current ad valorem tax rate of $0.250560 per
               $100 valuation either remains constant, or is lowered to the No New Revenue Rate, if necessary.
               The forecast does not assume a tax rate increase.

               The forecast also includes estimated principal and interest payments for future debt issues for
               large capital equipment, such as fire apparatus, which require such a long lead time and have
               such a long useful life that it is economically prudent to finance via debt rather than cash.

               The forecast also projects a stable employment level, with no increase or decrease in authorized
               full-time equivalent (FTE) levels throughout the three-year forecast period.  Annual across-the
               board market and merit salary adjustments of 2-5% are also included in the projection.
