The city budget for 2006 represents little change from the 2005 budget. I have
included my memo from the November 28,2005 council work session in which
we discussed the 2006 budget and CIP in detail.

Total budgeted expenditures in the general fund increase from $8,308,420 to
$8,900,100. Of this $591,680 increase, $285,000 is a use of general fund
reserves to be transferred to the debt service levy of the 1998A Park GO Bonds.
Of the remaining increase, $225,650 (74%) is for increased wages and benefits
to general fund employees, $20,000 for an increase in the police services
contract with Carver County, and a $61,000 increase for estimated additional
fuel and heating costs. These three items represent $305,650 (99.6%) of the
increase in the general fund budget.

total levies from the prior year.

MEMORANDUM

SUBJ:
Comprehensive 2006 Budget Review & Capital Improvement
Budget
The 2006 budget as presented meets the requirements set by the City Council
when the preliminary levy was established in September. The budget has been
reviewed by staff and thanks to their vigorous efforts, the 2006 expenditure
amounts provide for a zero dollar increase for the average homeowner over last
year's tax levy, while still providing for the programmatic needs of each
department.
The budget in its current state provides for a transfer to debt service for $285,000,
which is a use of general fund reserves, in order to achieve a zero dollar increase
to the average homeowner.
The primary adjustments made since the last time we discussed the individual
budgets were in the area of salaries and benefits. In our original budget, we had
included a 15% increase for healthcare costs. Due to the decision to change
healthcare providers as well as formats to BlueCrossIBlueshield, there will be a
7.5% increase in the city's share of healthcare costs rather than a 15% increase as
in the preliminary budget. This results in $31,000 in savings to the city. These
funds have been reallocated to pay for previously unbudgeted utility costs for old
St. Hubert's and estimated larger heating costs than budgeted for originally at the
Library building.
General Fund
Expenditures
Total budgeted expenditures in the general fund increase from $8,308,420 to
$8,900,100. Of this $591,680 increase, $285,000 is a use of general fund reserves
to be transferred to the debt service levy of the 1998A Park GO Bonds. Of the
remaining increase, $225,650 (74%) is for increased wages and benefits to general
fund employees, $20,000 for an increase in the police services contract with
The City of Chanhassen . A growing community with clean lakes, quality schools, a charming downtown, thriving businesses, winding trails, and beautitul parks. A great place to live, work, and play.

Carver County, and a $61,000 increase for estimated additional fuel and heating
costs. These three items represent $305,650 (99.6%) of the increase in the general
fund budget.
There is only one request for additional personnel hours and that is in the senior
citizens center (1560). This is an increase from twenty to twenty-four hours per
week for the senior coordinator.
Revenues
As mentioned in last year's budget memo, the legislature has eliminated the
Market Value Homestead Credit to help balance the state's budget. The effect of
this legislation is that we will not receive $218,766 of property taxes we were
scheduled to receive in 2005, and we will not receive and have to levy for a
similar amount in 2006.
Based on the previous year's history, we are budgeting for only nominal increases
in license revenue. Permit revenue projections are totally dependent on
development. We had some larger permit receipts in 2004, but we are on
schedule to be under budget in 2005, and are anticipating similar permit receipts
in 2006 compared with 2005. The other revenue item of note is that we are
planning for additional rental income from cell tower leases in 2006. We are
anticipating that the remainder of other revenues will have relatively flat increases
compared to 2005.
Debt Service Levies
Total debt service levies for 2006 are $1,938,790 compared with $2,225,934 in
2005. Keep in mind in order to achieve the $1.9 million in levies for 2006, we
used $285,000 in general fund reserves to pay down the debt of the 2004A GO
Park Bonds. These bonds were refinanced in November to achieve a flat debt
service tax levy for future years and also saved the city almost $50,000 in interest
costs.
Capital Improvement Program
The 2006-2010 CIP had very few changes from the prior year's CIP, especially in
the 2006 year. The one item of note is the capital replacement fund. Through
diligent work of staff, we were able to get the total funds requested for 2006 down
to $848,000. This, along with cost savings from 2005 CIP items discussed at our
previous meeting, means there will be no effect on the fund balance of the capital
replacement fund for years 2005 and 2006.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Todd Gerhardt, City Manager
FROM:
Justin Miller, Assistant City Manager
DATE:
November 17, 2005
RE:
Amendment to Pay Compensation Plan
BACKGROUND
At council's direction, staff has initiated plans to implement a 100% merit pay
system beginning in 2006. Right now, the City's compensation plan calls for an
automatic cost of living adjustment (COLA), plus a maximum 2% merit payment
as recommended by the employee's supervisor. There is also the possibility of up
to a 3% step increase if the employee's current salary is less that the midpoint, or
average salary, of similar positions. The number of employee's who are eligible
for this step increase has been decreasing each year due to the fact that we have
little employee turnover.
The proposed system beginning in 2006 would eliminate any automatic COLA or
step increases. Basically, each employee's salary adjustments would be entirely
based on their job performance. At the time of performance reviews, each
supervisor would be given his employee's current salary information, as well as
the maximum allowable salaries for their department for the next year. Under this
method, a high achieving employee could actually receive more that the normal
COLA and merit increases, as long as the total amount for the department does
not exceed the budgeted amount.
In order to accommodate this, the finance director and city manager will
determine what level of increased compensation is needed and will include this
number in preliminary budgets. For 2006, the overall amount budgeted is 5.5%.
This amount was determined by taking the rate of inflation at the time of budget
preparation in June (2.5%) and allowing for up to a 3% merit increase. There
were also ten employees who are eligible to receive a market adjustment based
upon a salary study of comparable cities. These market adjustments were
included in the total budgeted amounts presented to the city council during the
preliminary levy adoption.
Supervisory staff members have been informed of this new method and we will
be working with the finance department on coming up with new pay adjustment
sheets to reflect the new process.
RECOMMENDA TION
The City of Chanhassen . A growing community with clean takes, quality schools, a charming downtown, thriving businesses, winding trails, and beautitul parks. A great place to live, work, and play.
Staff is prepared to continue in this manner and will be presenting a formal pa6'
compensation plan amendment for the council's approval at the December It
meeting.

What schools' are spending an
By SHRUTI L MATHUR
smathur@startribune.com
Truth in Taxation notices
are coming in the mail, and all
west-suburban school districts
but one are holding hearings to
explain and answer questions
about changes in school taxes.
Most districts are antici-
pating an increase in taxes be-
cause of a legislative switch
that shifts some state aid to 10-
callevies. Other increases are a
result of the Legislature raising
the caps on local operating lev-
ies and other voter-approved
bonds and levies.
Several districts are increas-
ing local taxes to pay for teach-
er merit pay and special teach-
er training through the state's
new Q Comp plan. Hopkins is
currently the only district that
has its Q Comp plan approved,
but other districts are working
on their plans and are levying in
anticipation of state approval.
Westonka is the only west-
suburban district, not holding
a hearing, because taxes are go-
ing down after the expiration of
a bond. Districts that see a de-
crease in taxes are not required
to hold a hearing.
Here are the proposed tax
collections in west-metro dis-
tricts for 2006, along with the
date of the Truth in Taxation
hearing in each district:
CHASKA
2006 amount: $24,073,778.63
2005 amount: $22,142,205.97
Change: Up 8.12 percent
Why: To cover increases in
student enrollment as well as
paying baCk bond issues.
Hearing: 6:30 p.rn. Tuesday,
Board Room, 11 Peavey Road,
Chaska.
Infonnation: Call Steve
Pumper, 952-556-6261
EDEN PRAIRIE
2006 amount: $35,842,698.97
2005 amount: $28,177,609.97
Change: Up 27.2 percent
Why: Eden Prairie has levied
the full amount approved by
voters in a 2004 operating levy
referendum. The district is also
levying for more funds for alter-
native teacher compensation, or
QComp.
Hearing: 7 p.rn. Dec. 6, Board
. -
Why: The approval on Nov. 8
of an ope~ting levy with an in-
flationary increase accounts for
some new taxes. The district also
is levying for teacher compensa-
tion for the Q Comp program, for
which the district got state ap-
proval this past summer.
Hearing: 6:30 p.m. Tuesday,
School District Conference Cen-
ter, Eisenhower Community
Center, 1001 Hwy. 7, Hopkins.
Information: Call Jim Rhodes

MINNETONKA
2006 amouitt: $26,988,343.00
2005 amount: $24,986,576.37
Change: Up 8 percent
, Why: The state shift of costs
from state aid to local leVies
accounts for more than 50 per-
cent of the increase.Alternate
teaCher compensation through
Q Comp makes up part of the
remaining portion.
Hearing: 7 pm. Tuesday,
Community Room, District Ser-
vice Center, 5621 County Hwy.

ORONO
2006 amount: $6,815,410.48
2005 amount: $5,624,904.96
Change: Up 21.16 percent
Why: Because the Legislature
raised the operating levy cap
during the last session, Orono
is now levying more money
through its operating levy
approved in 2004. The main
increase is due to the state tax
shift.
Hearing: 7 p.rn. Dec. 6, Dis-

2005 amount: $49,669,424
Change: Up 10.67 percent
Why: The district is levying
for health and safety projects
on its buildings, which do not
need voter approval. These in-
clude some improvements to
cafeterias to meet food code re-
quirements, as well as asbestos
removal projects.
