            to be $531,207 in FY 2023-24 a decrease of $231,498 from the FY 2022-23 budget.

            Ambulance  services  account  for  $1,085,559  of  the  total  for  FY  2023-24.  The  city  uses  three-year
            averaging  for  these  service  charges  to  create  revenue  estimates  for  the  upcoming  year.  Year-end
            projections for some revenues are up from FY 2022-23 budget due to the three-year average and trend
            data, in particular ambulance fees and communication tower rentals. The year-end projection was used
            to create the FY 2023-24 budget.
