MEMORANDUM

FROM: Greg Sticha, Finance Director t.~.
DA TE: November 10, 2008
SUBJ: 2009 Budget Request ~~.
DISCUSSION
The finance department budget for 2009 is $288,300, which is a 4.7% decrease in
the total budget for 2009. Listed below are the reasons for the decrease in 2009.
Salaries and wages actually increased by $17,700 (8.4%). One of the main
reasons for the increase is that the newly hired person in the department is now
receiving family healthcare benefits and the previous employee in that position
had opted out of that coverage.
The materials and supplies line items are $100 lower than the previous year, so no
significant change.
The reduction in contractual services accounts for the entire reduction in the
finance department budget. The contractual services budget for 2009 was cut
$30,000 or 34.8%. The reduction over the past two years has been due to our
staff taking on a number of accounting/auditing duties that had previously been
performed by our audit firm.
Attached is the detail line item budget for the finance department.
