In FY2013, the city will be undergoing a major reorganizationof Community Public Safety – Police and Fire Services.In 2012, the City Manager created a Public SafetyFunding/Planning/Sustainability Taskforce to review theCity’s Public Safety – Police and Fire Services. Thistaskforce will provide recommendations to the CityManager and City Council on how these operationsshould be structured. These recommendations will beprovided to the City Council in the first quarter of FY2013. However, due to the decline in revenues andincreasing expenditures, Personnel Services forCommunity Public Safety – Fire reflects the eliminationof the following vacant positions: Fire Chief, one FireCaptain, one Fire Engineer, two Fire Lieutenants, andtwo Firefighter positions, as well as the savings of notbudgeting for four vacant firefighter positions. Thisreduction is possible due to retirement of senioremployees. Additionally, in FY 2013, the city expectsto receive the Homeland Security SAFER Grant thatwill pay for salary and benefits, less unfunded pensionliability for seven firefighter positions. The reduction inPersonnel Services will be offset by increases to thehealthcare cost for active employees, retiree healthcare,and the 2012/2013 Police and Fire pension obligations.Operating Expenses are expected to decrease $70,798,from 2012 budgeted levels. This is primarily attributedto the reduction to the following: household supplies,parts and supplies, operating services, educationalsupplies, and general liability insurance. Thesereductions are possible due to city administrationrealigning expenditures to historical averages. NoCapital Outlay purchases are budgeted for CommunityPublic Safety - Fire.FUNDING LEVEL SUMMARY2008/09 2009/10 2010/11 2011/12 2011/12 2011/12 2012/13Actual Actual Actual Approved Adjusted Projected Approved3750 Fire Administration 402,600 321,115 391,946 0 0 0 03551 CPS - Fire Suppression 7,658,203 7,200,014 7,904,081 7,777,996 8,388,818 8,937,292 6,598,5843552 CPS - Fire Training 181,492 165,768 315,562 182,276 189,544 163,938 166,3813553 CPS - Fire Prevention 171,888 182,072 194,598 231,929 383,358 292,899 356,3583554 CPS - Fire ApparatusOperations and Maintenance 437,742 170,332 295,258 365,233 363,263 243,450 334,115Total Expenditures 8,851,925 8,039,301 9,101,445 8,557,434 9,324,983 9,637,579 7,455,438FUNDING LEVEL BY CATEGORY2008/09 2009/10 2010/11 2011/12 2011/12 2011/12 2012/13Actual Actual Actual Approved Adjusted Projected ApprovedPersonnel Services 7,806,751 7,387,695 8,224,897 7,758,666 8,493,917 8,980,594 6,712,468Operating Expenses 1,004,786 647,529 801,740 798,768 830,274 656,194 742,970Capital Outlay 40,388 4,077 74,808 0 792 792 0Total Expenditures 8,851,925 8,039,301 9,101,445 8,557,434 9,324,983 9,637,579 7,455,438100
