Taxes Generated from 1 Mill & Percent Change
How the General
Fund levy cap
works
The "Floating Mill" Principle:Higher certified property values do not create an automatic
revenue windfall. As taxable values increase, mills automatically float downward to adhere to the dollar cap.
Maximum Allowable Levy Formula:
Prior Year Authorized $
+ 3-Year Avg Inflation
+ % of Newly Taxable recapture
= Max Allowable Revenue
Statutory theory vs
budget reality
The Statutory Design
•Inflation adjustments cover cost increases for existing services
•Newly taxable growth pays for expanded municipal capacity.
The Operational Reality
•Municipal cost drivers outpace CPI inflation.
•Newly taxable pays for existing operations.

Short-term
stability, long-term
pressure
Near-term
•Conservative revenue projections can
absorb most of the lower newly taxable
values
•FY27 budget can be balanced
Long-term
•Lower newly taxable value reduces future
revenue growth
•Without adjustments, lower recurring
revenue growth causes costs to outpace
revenues in later years
•Six-year forecast and unlevied-mill strategy
should be reconsidered

Six-year Operating Margin / Reinvestment Capacity = $4.1 million
What Operating
Margin Supports
Operating Margin / Reinvestment Capacity pay for:
•Capital projects
•Housing allocation
•Emerging / unplanned needs: senior center, story
mansion, etc.
Planned non-operating expenditures total
approximately $34 million over the next six years
•$21 million in capital projects
•$7 million allocation to Community Housing Fund
•$6 million allocation to Planning Fund
How the Six-Year
Forecast Balances
•Pays for core operating expenditures
Core Operating Revenue
•Supports housing + capital + other one-time
needs
Operating Margin
•Fills the gap when annual margin is not enough

already made in
the Six-Year
Forecast
•Public Safety Staffing Strategy
•New Police Patrol positions (4 in FY27 and 4 in FY28)
are removed from the baseline forecast;
•Police may strategically overhire using vacancy
savings, provided total personnel costs remain within the existing PD budget
•6 SAFER firefighter positions retained after the grant
expires to run the QRU
•Operational Budget Savings factored in
•Historically 4% - 10%
•4% savings included in the models
•Planning Fee Strategy
•Subsidy reduced by 50% in 2029 Biennium

Based on median single-family primary

Difference to typical homeowner: ~$24/year
Difference to General Fund over six years: ~ $6.7M
FY27 is unusual: even at the maximum City levy, the
modeled primary homeowner still pays more than $100
less than FY26 because of State tax changes.
Why FY27 is
Different
•State tax changes reduce the modeled
City tax bill for a typical primary
homeowner by more than $100, even
with the maximum levy.
•Levying the available mills now
strengthens recurring General Fund
revenue and the future revenue base.
•If the City needs that capacity later, a
comparable State tax offset may not be
available.

Recommendation & Next Steps
•Staff Recommendation: Levy Max Authorized Mills to reduce reliance on one-time revenues and preserve recurring General Fund capacity.
•Levying the max does not obligate the Commission to levy the maximum in any
future year.

•Evaluate investment options ranging from maintaining current service levels to more proactive investment, could include:
•Increased investment in stormwater systems currently maintained by HOAs
•Accelerated clay pipe replacement
•Shorter maintenance interval for pipes, inlets, and manholes
•Accelerated timeline for water quality improvements
•Commission direction will be requested in the next 12 months
•Preferred level of service will inform long-range models, capital planning, and

Schedule A:
What it is & why it
changes
•Applies the adopted formula to individual parcels
•Built from parcel, zoning, development and square-footage data from multiple sources
•Current process requires significant manual review and reconciliation
•Parcel level corrections normally continue before final County billing
•FY27 requires more review due to widespread zoning changes from the UDC update
•Final schedules transmitted to the County in September, using the adopted formulas

What’s changed so
far?
•Parcels in residential zones have
all been capped appropriately at
15,000 sq ft
•All parcels with a cost increase
over 18% have been reviewed and
either updated or confirmed to be
accurate
Revenue Risk &
Timing
•Most remaining issues appear likely to increase assessed square footage, not
decrease it
•Funds can absorb reasonable final variance;
actual results inform future rates
•Parcel reconciliation will continue through final
County submission
•A short delay would produce another interim
Schedule A—not a final billing file

Special Assessment Methodology Review
•Preliminary analysis indicates that the methodology could legally be changed for Parks & Trails, Street Maintenance, and Arterial & Collector District
•Possible methods for the other districts include:
•Assessable area
•Equal per lot or parcel
•Taxable valuation
•Front footage
•Trip generation
•Per residential unit / business unit
•Character / service-based
•Caps on specific zones could also be considered to adjust how assessments are allocated
•Work session scheduled for January 26th
