Appropriation Spending Limit (CM)
City Manager King provided an introduction to the subject matter of the City of Lodi Financial Plan
and Budget for Fiscal Year 2009-10. Specific topics of discussion included changes since the
June 3 City Council meeting, agreements prior to June 3, two-year service credit, general fund
budget, all fund revenues, and staff recommendation to adopt the proposed budget. Mr. King
stated there are no proposed layoffs with the exception of the proposed layoff as a result of the
Maintenance and Operators labor group vote.
In response to Council Member Hitchcock, Mr. King stated the budget is balanced and the
departmental proportional sizes have been generally maintained. Mr. King reviewed each
department and their corresponding general fund portion.
In response to Mayor Hansen, Mr. King stated in light of the recent changes the Community
Improvement Officer position will remain and will not be laid off.
In response to Council Member Mounce, Mr. King stated approximately one-third of the streets
fund comes from the General Fund, reduction of the maintenance worker positions will reduce the
General Fund support proportionately, the positions rely on both the General Fund and the
Enterprise Fund, there is a need to be somewhat strategic in department positions in light of what
may or may not happen with the State budget, the monetary value of the two maintenance worker
positions is $52,300, and eligible positions within the Maintenance and Operators group were
offered the service credit option with one person accepting.
Mayor Hansen, Council Member Hitchcock, and Council Member Mounce expressed their
gratitude to the labor groups for their assistance in helping to balance the proposed budget for
the upcoming year.
Mayor Hansen made a motion, second by Council Member Johnson, to adopt Resolution
No. 2009-76 approving City of Lodi Financial Plan and Budget for fiscal year beginning July 1,
