DISCUSSION

On August 1, 2008, the City Manager's Proposed Budget for Fiscal Year 2009 (FY 09) was delivered by the Mayor to the City Council and community with recommended amendments for consideration. Subsequent workshops and hearings were set for August 5, August 12, August 19, August 26, September 2, September 4 and September 9, 2008 along with approximately three Budget Oversight Committee (BOC) meetings and ten community meetings at which the FY 09 Proposed Budget was discussed. We are pleased to report that through the scheduled workshops, hearings, BOC and community meetings, presentations have been made by multiple City departments resulting in 23 separate opportunities for public feedback, deliberation and input.

At the conclusion of the hearings, the City Council will be asked to amend the proposed budget as it deems appropriate, and to adopt the proposed budget as amended. Since the publication of the FY 09 Proposed Budget, updated estimates of revenue and expense, which address technical corrections as well as decisions made by elected offices, are listed by fund and department in Attachments Band C to this letter, respectively.

The Appropriations Ordinance officially adopts the FY 09 budget and authorizes expenditures in conformance with the adopted budget. To become effective October 1, 2008, this Ordinance must include a finding of emergency. Specific resolutions provide for approval of the budgets for the Harbor, Sewer and Water funds; and certain fee adjustments. Requests for approval include the FY 09 Capital Improvement Program; acknowledgement of the updated Financial Strategic Plan; the Mayor's Recommendations; and the Budget Oversight Committee's Recommendations to the FY 09 Proposed Budget.
