FUNDING: None 44 'c Vicky McAthile Finance Director attachment CC: Transportation Manager SJCOG - Steve Dial APPROVED: i H. ixon Flynn -- City Man er San Joaquin County Council of Governments Member Agencies: Cities of Escalon, Lathrop, Lodi, Manteca, Ripon, Stockton, Tracy, County of San Joaquin 0 April 30, 1998 Mr. Dixon Flynn City Of Lodi P.O. Box 3006 Lodi, CA 95241-1 91 0 Dear Mr. Flynn: Enclosed is a summary of the San Joaquin Council of Governments' Annual Financial Plan (AFP) for Fiscal Year 1998/99. Pursuant to the COG's Joint Powers Agreement, following adoption of the budget by our Board, it is to be delivered to member agencies for ratification by each governing body. The Board unanimously adopted the Plan on April 23, 1998. A copy of the adopting resolution is enclosed. Therefore, I request that you place the COG's Annual Financial Plan for Fiscal Year 1998/99 on a forthcoming agenda prior to June 30, 1998 for your Council's approval. The Annual Financial Plan implements the FY 1998/99 Unified Work Program (UWP) also adopted by the COG Board on April 23, 1998. The UWP continues COG's commitment to: 1. Maintaining Air Quality Conformity 2. Delivery of Measure K 3. Research and Data Center 4. Habitat Planning 5. Transportation Modeling 6. Regional Transportation Plan/Strategic Investment Planning 7. Congestion Management Planning 8. Local Assistance 9. Intergovernmental Coordination/Cooperation The enclosed summary identifies revenues and expenditures anticipated for the 6 South El Dorado St., Suite 400 a Stockton, California 95202 • (209) 468-3913 • FAX: (209) 468-1084 • sjccog@stockton.net Mr. Dixon Flynn April 30, 1998 Page 2 year including both operating and pass-through revenues and expenditures. Pass- through are funds over which COG has fiduciary responsibility such as Transportation Development Act, ISTEA and the majority of Measure K funds. The summary compares the FY 98/99 with the current year's adopted budget (as amended on April 23, 1998) and the FY 1996/97 final budget. REVENUES COG operating revenues are 6.4% lower than the currently adopted FY 97/98 budget or approximately $160,000 less. The current year includes $325,000 budgeted for the Arch Road/SR 99 interchange project funded by the City of Stockton. This work is completed. EXPENDITURE LINE ITEMS WITH SIGNIFICANT CHANGE The Salaries and Benefits group increases 3.3% reflecting full staffing for the entire year and 3% for potential cost of living adjustments (as yet to be determined by the Board). There are no additional staff being requested. Services and Supplies increases 7.1 %. The majority of this increase is in the Communications area where Internet access charges and Freeway Service Patrol cell phones charges are reflected. This accounts for a $9,000 annual increase in communications costs. In addition Transportation and Travel, which contains training expenses, is $8,700 higher as a result of the Computer Training Incentive Program approved by the Board In February, 1998. This training program is budgeted at $15,000, therefore the remaining Transportation and Travel account is reduced by $6,300. Professional Services decreases 36.0% due to the completion of the Arch Rd./SR 99 project for the City of Stockton. Fixed Assets are increased from $15,100 to $20,000. We will continue to upgrade our computer equipment and also purchase a new plotter. Unallocated/Reserve is budgeted at $64,653. These funds can be used as a contingency account and/or be transferred to a reserve account at the end of the fiscal year, as has been done in previous years. Overall, expenditures are 6.4% lower than the currently adopted budget. Mr. Dixon Flynn April 30, 1998 Page 3 COG staff would be pleased to appear before your policymakers to answer any questions they might have regarding this matter. Please let me know when this will be appearing before the Council. If you have any questions regarding this matter, don't hesitate to contact me at 468-3913. Thank you for your assistance.
