FISCAL YEAR 1993-94 BUDGET UPDATE AND FISCAL YEAR 1994-95 ASSUMPTIONS This report presents an overview of the status of the.City's fiscal year 1993-94 General Fund Budget and a preliminary estimate of the revenue picture for the upcoming fiscal year 1994-95. A review of budgeted revenue and service cost estimates at the mid -point of this fiscal year, 1993-94, shows that actual General Fund revenues will end the year substantially below earlier projections. If left uncorrected the loss in revenues will result in a deficit (expenditures exceeding revenues) at year-end of approximately $1,253,000. This report presents a plan of cost reductions and shifts that will close the shortfall by the end of the fiscal year. The City Manager's recommendations to the City Council are as follows: A. That the program for balancing the 1993-4 budget as recommended by staff be approved. B. That the program for closing the 1994-95 budget shortfall as recommended by staff be incorporated in the 1994-95 Preliminary Budget when presented to the City Council for consideration. • 0 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA Page Two March 14, 1994 II.
