Notes

  1. Local Sales and Use Taxes: Excluding one-time repayments of $1.5 million made in the prior year, year-over-year retail sales collections from July through February are 3.1 percent below last year.
  2. Business License Taxes:  The City’s business license tax was due March 1, 2010.  Collections-to-date in the amount of $27.0 million represent a difference in the timing for payments made by businesses.  As indicated in the April re-estimates, receipts will be lower than budgeted by $1.9 million. 
  3. Revenue from the Use of Money and Property: Continued decreased revenue in this category reflects the extremely low interest rates budgeted and earned on City operating funds, which are conservatively invested for safety and liquidity reasons.
  4. Year-to-Date Revenues: As of March 31, 2010, actual General Fund revenues totaled $322.8 million, which is 1.1 percent above FY 2009 revenues of $319.2 million for the same period last year.  Council received updated revenue forecasts at the April 26 Budget work session.  That estimate shows a revenues shortfall of $8.1 million or 1.5 percent compared to the original FY 2010 budget estimate of General Fund revenues of $530 million, primarily due to lower business license and sales tax revenue (due to lower assessments than previously forecast) and lower intergovernmental revenues.  Note that the revenue estimate shown in this table includes the City Manager’s proposed 7 cent tax increase, not the final rate approved on May 3.
