Council Agenda Item
MEETING DATE: July 16, 2009
AGENDA ITEM: Administrator Report -Sales Tax Committee Update
SUBMITTED BY: Administration
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: The Council has previously appointed the following members to the
Sales Tax Committee: Greg Reinhart (Chamber Representative), Mike McDonald (Resident
Representative), Cory Ehlert (Resident Representative), Bruce Berghorst (Park Bard Representative),
Judy Weyrens (Administration/Staff).
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Sales Tax Committee met on July 1, 2009 to discuss the status of
the fund and possible methods for distribution of funds. The members reviewed the ballot questions
that were successfully approved by the voters in 2004. It was agreed by the members that the
distribution of sales tax proceeds must meet the purposes stated on the ballot and the funds need to be
distributed to each of the three categories. Additionally, any funds spent need to be verified that the
capital expenditure is regional in nature. It was also discussed that the distribution of funds should
include an objective method.
After considerable discussion the Sales Tax Committee is recommending adopting the following formula
for distribution of sales tax proceeds.
Total projected costs for Total Value Percentage of
each ballot question of all questions = projected funding
(as stated on the ballot) by ballot question
OR
Transportation $ 15,000,00 = 659'°
Community Facility 5,000,000 $ 23,000,000 = 22%
Parks and Trails 3,000,000 = 13%
Therefore, the Committee is recommending the following policy regarding the distribution of funds:
1. The request for funding must illustrate that it meets the criteria of at least one of the ballot
questions approved by the voters in 2004.
Each request will be reviewed by the Sales Tax Committee who will make a
recommendation to the Council for approval or denial.
The maximum funding for any one of the categories cannot exceed the applicable
percentage of the funds collected. For example: The City currently has a fund balance of
approximately $ 750,000. Of the $ 750,000 Parks and Trails would be eligible to spend $
97,500 provided the project meets the criteria.
The Committee also discussed a request of the Park Board to install new playground equipment at
Centennial Park. Bruce eerghorst presented the Committee with a proposal to spend approximately $
35,000. During discussion it was noted that labor was not included in the cost so Bruce will take the
information back to the Park Board at their meeting in August.
The Committee also discussed potential projects that could be funded such as the trail and connection
to the Wobegon via the CR 2 realignment and the possibility of a streetscape on CR 75.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:
ATTACHMENTS: Projected Sales Tax Earnings; Table of Actual Collections versus projects;
and detail of the ballot questions and projected formula.
REQUESTED COUNCIL ACTION: Provide direction to the Sales Tax Committee as to the proposed
formula and expectations of the Committee.
