To the Honorable Mayor and City Council Members,
It is my pleasure to submit to you Iowa City's operating and capital budget for the 2018 fiscal
year. Although Iowa State Code requires formal adoption of an annual budget, a three-year
financial plan (fiscal years 2017-2019) and five-year capital improvement program (2017-2021)
are also included for planning purposes. The budget is one of the most important documents the
City prepares because it identifies the services to be provided and the mechanisms that finance
those services.
This document aims to continue Iowa City's tradition of providing a balanced budget utilizing
conservative assumptions while strengthening core municipal services that our residents value.
Should unexpected expenditures or revenue shortfalls arise during the fiscal year, the budget
contains prudent contingency line items and reserve levels that can adequately support the
City's services. Any future modifications of this budget will be fully disclosed to the City Council
and the general public through formal City Council actions at public meetings, in accordance
with State of Iowa law.
Throughout the budget compilation process, staff utilized the City Council's Strategic Plan to
help prioritize expenditure decisions. In this budget, significant resources are devoted to
sustaining Strategic Plan projects and programs in affordable housing, historic preservation,
public space improvement, environmental stewardship, social equity efforts, and more.
Strategic and Financial Planning
City Council held Strategic Plan update sessions between November 2015 and February 2016.
The City's Strategic Plan was officially adopted on March 1, 2016 for the 2016 and 2017
calendar years.
City Council's Strategic Plan priorities for 2016-2017 are:
This Strategic Plan intends to foster a more Inclusive, Just and Sustainable Iowa City
1. Promote a Strong and Resilient Local Economy
2. Encourage a Vibrant and Walkable Urban Core
3. Foster Healthy Neighborhoods throughout the City
4. Maintain a Solid Financial Foundation
5. Enhance Community Engagement and Intergovernmental Relations
6. Promote Environmental Sustainability
7. Advance Social Justice and Racial Equity
The financial resources in this budget will allow the City to continue to pursue initiatives that
support these strategic priorities. Examples of such resource allocation include, but are not
limited to:
11
Promote a Strong and Resilient Local Economy
• Increases the newly established local food funds 20%, to $30,000
• Grows the EBT/SNAP program at the Farmer's Market
• Provides resources for two new community gardens and initiates a beginning gardener
program
• Continues to provide micro -loan resources and discretionary funding for small business
incentives
Encourage a Vibrant and Walkable Urban Core
• Converts the temporary historic preservation planning position to a permanent half-time
position
• Creates a new $40,000 historic preservation grant program aimed at facilitating
historically sensitive reinvestment into residential properties that are located in historic
districts
• Provides resources for two $500,000 tax increment financing grants over two years
aimed to restore the Englert Theatre and preserve elements of the Film Scene operation
at the 1870s Packing and Provision building downtown.
• Contributes $650,000 of General Fund dollars to the City's affordable housing fund
Foster Healthy Neighborhoods throughout the City
• Provides $50,000 for traffic calming initiatives in the Northside neighborhood
• Provides $150,000 for phase two of the form based code project
• Modestly increases funding for the PIN grants and Public Art program
• Continues providing resources for increased natural areas management capabilities,
street tree planting and ADA improvements at intersections, public buildings and parks
Promote Environmental Sustainability
• Increases the commitment to carbon emission reduction projects 50%, from $100,000 to
$150,000 annually
• Provides resources to help us achieve a gold bike friendly certification including a
complete streets fund that can assist with implementation of the bike master plan
recommendations
• Provides resources to initiate curbside composting and single -stream recycling
Advance Social Justice and Racial Equity
• Continues to provide resources for the temporary winter homeless shelter
• Continues to provide funding for the racial equity grant program and disproportionate
traffic stop analysis
• Integrates the Summer Fun pilot program in Parks and Recreation into standard
operations
• Broadens the focus of a Recreation Supervisor to include a focus on underserved
populations
12
Again, the items noted above are not intended to be comprehensive, but rather illustrative of
how staff has attempted to shift resources to support the City Council's Strategic Plan priorities.
These changes were pursued while still maintaining a fiscally responsible and sustainable
budget. Additionally, our core service levels have been maintained or strengthened with this
budget. Most notably, the budget includes two new staff positions in the Streets Division of
Public Works. The two new positions recognize the considerable growth in the community over
the last ten plus years and will allow the City to expand street repairs, snow plowing operations,
and other core services.
Additionally, the preparation of this budget document was guided by three primary financial
goals that seek to establish a sound fiscal strategy for the upcoming year and beyond.
First, the City continues to respond to the State's 2013 property tax reforms. As the taxable
percentage of multifamily rental properties' values continues to be reduced, there will be
increased pressure on the budget. Though the proposed
budget contains funding for new initiatives, maintains

year and are not likely to continue in the long-term. The
bottom line is that there are millions of dollars in revenue in
the current fiscal year that we do not
expect to continue to receive in future years and we must plan and budget accordingly.
The City has taken steps to manage the impacts of tax reform, but maintaining service levels
will require prudent decisions over the next several years. By preparing for reform before the
full financial impacts are realized, the City will be able to shift resources and adjust operations
gradually, avoiding abrupt service disruptions or steep tax rate increases.
Second, the budget attempts to establish conditions that will enhance the community's fiscal
position and ensure that it will maintain its prestigious Moody's Aaa bond rating. Council's
adopted fund balance and debt policies are all consistent with Moody's best practices and are
intended to preserve our top bond rating. Bond ratings have real impacts on community well-
being; dollars used to make interest payments compete with those used to provide needed
public improvements. Every dollar used for an interest payment is one that is not directly
13
contributing to a community need. The budget document and annual financial reports also strive
to continue to earn the Government Finance Officer Association's awards for excellence.
Finally, the budget strives to maintain an affordable tax and fee environment for residents and
businesses. Sharp increases in property taxes or fees for services can have a significant impact
on families' monthly budgets. We pursue efficient service delivery, review fees annually, and
maintain adequate reserves in order to avoid severe, immediate impacts to residents' household
finances. This also holds true for businesses. Maintaining a stable environment for the
controllable costs of doing business in our community helps to create an atmosphere conducive
to business development and expansion.
Community Fiscal Health and Outlook
Iowa City benefits from a strong local economy anchored by the presence of the University of
Iowa. The local economy consists of a diverse set of successful industries that together help
sustain one of the lowest unemployment rates in the nation. As an organization, the City has a
rich tradition of conservative budgeting policies that has created a strong financial foundation.
This foundation helped the community weather economic recessions while sustaining service
delivery and continues to serve as a cornerstone for the community's future. In 2016, Moody's
Investors Service noted that, "The city's financial operations are expected to remain healthy,
given strong financial management, significant operating fund reserves and sufficient revenue
raising flexibility... Iowa City's management team is strong, as indicated by its sound operating
performance and history of positive budget to actual variances," and reaffirmed its highest
quality bond rating (Aaa) for the City's general obligation debt with a stable outlook. Iowa City is
one of only two cities in Iowa that currently holds the distinction of a Moody's Aaa bond rating.
The Moody's report also notes factors that could potentially drop the City's bond rating,
including: deterioration of the tax base, weakening socioeconomic indicators, reductions in
financial reserves, or growth in the City's debt burden.
Despite the increasing health of the economy and strong financial position of the organization,
the community needs to be cognizant of the trends, pressures and opportunities that are
shaping the community in various fashions. Our community has many attributes that attract new
residents to our City. A strong job market, good schools, and great cultural amenities all
contribute to the desirability of our area for families, retirees, and young professionals to make
their permanent homes. Population growth has a profound effect on service delivery, land use,
and housing affordability. The City Council has adopted a number of policies and initiatives in
recent years to maintain and enhance our positive attributes in light of this population growth.
Forces that are outside of our control also influence Iowa City's ability to attract and retain
businesses and a socially and economically diverse population. Lower costs of land and
aggressive economic incentives from neighboring jurisdictions are outside of our span of control
yet have a profound impact on the City's economy. We need to be conscious of those variables
and leverage our unique assets and character in ways that clearly illustrate value that cannot be
matched in other communities.
14
Looking ahead, it should not be assumed that the current level of growth will be sustained in
future years. Any tempering of growth will place more pressure on the City's budget as tax
reform implementation will continue for the next several years. Such pressure could lead to the
need to reduce service levels or increase property tax rates and/or other taxes and fees. For
this reason it is imperative that Iowa City continue to push forward through cautious budgeting
and strong reserves that can help soften the blow of sudden revenue losses or expenditure
jumps.
Fiscal Year 2018 Budget Overview
In preparing this budget document City staff accounted for the previously -mentioned financial
goals, strategic plan, and the controllable factors that influence desired growth and development
in the region. By adhering to these principles, the proposed budget balances both the short-term
needs and the long-term health and stability of the community.
The fiscal year 2018 City budget includes projected expenditures totaling $172,406,624. Of
the total budget, $55,783,227 is for the General Fund, $41,215,806 is directed to Capital
Projects and $50,630,604 is related to the operations of various enterprise or business funds.
A breakdown of the budget by fund type follows
It is important to look deeper into the types of expenditures that occur within each of these
funds. For that purpose, the following chart displays the program of expenses across all funds.
The largest outlay is associated with business or enterprise funds such as water, sewer, parking
and transit, followed by expenses related to capital projects. The chart also illustrates growth in
areas that is fairly consistent with standard labor and inflation indexes.

Iowa City derives the majority of its revenues through property taxes and charges for services.
The following table and pie chart details Iowa City's revenue mix across all fund types. The
increases in the categories are minimal and within reasonable expectations. The decrease in
Intergovernmental is the result of a decrease in other state grants from bus replacements
budgeted in fiscal year 2017. Other Financial Sources decreased due to debt sales for
infrastructure projects.

It is imperative to consider how the overall revenue and expenditure recommendations in this
budget will impact local households and businesses. Businesses will benefit from the outlined
reduction in the property tax rate to $16.33, the lowest Iowa City tax rate since fiscal year 2002.
Just six years ago (fiscal year 2012), Iowa City's rate was $17.84, which means the fiscal year
2018 rate represents an 8.5% decrease over six years. The ten percent reduction in the taxable
value of commercial properties mandated by the state was fully phased in fiscal year 2016, thus
the majority of businesses in the Iowa City community will pay less in taxes and fees compared
to previous years.

On the residential side, it is easier to determine an overall financial impact to an average
household. The following bar chart illustrates the estimated financial impact to the average
household in Iowa City. With a lower property tax rate and increased refuse fees, it is estimated
that a household with $100,000 assessed home value will pay approximately $1.83 more per
month, or $22 per year, in taxes and fees for basic city services in fiscal year 2018. $100,000
assessed value is used for this table so that readers may easily calculate tax payments based
on their own home value.

Perhaps the most significant property tax reform provision for Iowa City's budget is the
reclassification of multi -family residential properties, none of which is subject to state backfill
payments. Prior to assessment year 2013, multi -family properties were classified as commercial
and taxed at 100% of assessed value. These properties dropped to 95% and 90% taxability in
assessment years 2013 and 2014, respectively. The graph below illustrates the dropping
taxable percentage of multi -family properties in the coming assessment years.

Of particular note is the fact that after assessment year 2021 the taxable percentage of multi-
family properties will drop to match the residential taxable percentage. This percentage has
been as low as 44% in recent years. The property tax reform legislation clearly has provided
significant benefit to owners of multi -family residential properties. However, it will place great
strain on the City's budget as it is fully implemented.
Property Tax Overview
The taxable valuation of property subject to all levies in Iowa City increased 3.7% for fiscal year
2018, despite a reduction in the taxable valuation of multi -family residential properties. The
taxable value of these multi -family properties will continue to drop in the coming years. The
following chart depicts the change in taxable valuations over the last six years.

Moving forward, valuation growth will be substantially slowed by the state's 2013 property tax
reforms. One of the provisions of the state legislation lowered the allowable annual statewide
growth for residential and agricultural properties from four percent to three percent. While this
does not sound significant, the effect of this limitation compounds over time and is difficult to
estimate.
The budget reflects a reduction of $0.25 in the tax levy rate, which will bring Iowa City's rate to
$16.33. This marks the sixth straight year of property tax rate decreases; we are unaware of any
city in Iowa that has been able to implement tax rate decrease during each of the last six years.
The reduction has been achieved through several internal strategies and increases in taxable
valuations. This year's reduction is in the debt service portion of the property tax levy, largely
achieved through recent debt restructuring and early bond retirement strategies.
The following chart is provided for a greater historical perspective on Iowa City's municipal tax
rate. Tax levy rate reductions in recent years were made possible by prudent debt strategies,
operational efficiencies, valuation growth, and an increase in the taxable percentage of
residential properties determined at the state level. The last of these trends is not expected to
continue. In fact, the taxable percentage of residential properties will likely decline with the
recent declining agricultural values.

Below is a detailed breakdown of the City's property tax asking for fiscal year 2018 compared to
the previous year:
Despite the continued efforts to reduce Iowa City's property tax
rate, our community is still on the higher side of cities in
Eastern Iowa. The information table to the right shows the
property tax rate disparity between Iowa City and other
Eastern Iowa cities. Iowa City's higher rate also reflects
enhanced level of public services, unique State or federal
mandates (e.g. public safety pension contributions), and other
factors such as a significant number of University of Iowa
affiliated tax-exempt properties within the jurisdiction.
When comparing to the ten largest cities in Iowa, Iowa City has
moved from one of the highest tax rates in the state to the
middle of the pack. Continued emphasis on a competitive tax
rate will help facilitate additional growth in future years through
a more affordable environment for residents and businesses.

Efforts to control General Fund expenses in recent years have struggled to keep up with rising
salary and benefit costs. This is despite the reduction of a number of staff positions over the
past five years. The General Fund budget provides funding for many of the City's core services
including Parks & Recreation, Library, and Public Safety. The budget incorporates programs
and initiatives intended to address each of City Council's strategic plan priorities, including those
that meet sustainability, inclusivity, and social justice goals. Staff remains committed to
identifying efficiencies that strengthen our operation while continuing to provide the services our
community expects and aligning activities with the Council's Strategic Plan.
Enterprise / Business Fund Overview
Enterprise or Business Funds refer to specific operations that are intended to be self-sustaining,
or without the need for subsidy from property taxes or revenue sources other than fees collected
that are directly related to the operation. The budgeted revenues, expenditures and
corresponding fund balances are detailed in the following table.

Each of the City's enterprise funds are in varying, yet stable conditions. This budget includes
modifications to several of the City's refuse fees. The standard monthly refuse charge for
residential customers is proposed to increase by $.20 per month and the recycling fee is
proposed to increase by a $1.00 per month, effective July 1, 2017. Additional waste bag stickers
would increase from $1.25 to $2.50 for heavy users that cannot fit their waste in the standard
City receptacle. These changes help keep pace with increasing costs and allow the City to
move to a single stream collection of recycling materials, which is consistent with our waste
minimization plan.
In addition, beginning January 1, 2018 the budget proposes eliminating the $25 annual sticker
and $1.25 bag fees for yard waste. Instead the budget proposes a standard monthly fee of
$2.00 to every customer. The $2.00 monthly charge will provide a more stable revenue source,
formalize our commitment to curbside compost collection, and eliminate significant
administrative efforts and customer inconvenience associated with buying annual stickers.
PAI
Other minor fee adjustments in enterprise funds include electronic waste processing
adjustments to cover costs of recycling and an increase in the monthly parking permit costs of
$5. No fee increases are being proposed for water, sewer, storm water or transit operations.
Internal Service Fund Highlights
Internal Service Funds serve needs that are internal to the City as an organization. The
budgeted revenues, expenditures and corresponding fund balances are detailed in the following
table.
All funds are in good condition with healthy balances. Strong balances create reserves that can
provide flexibility to deal with unexpected costs or opportunities.
Capital Improvement Plan Highlights
The capital budget for fiscal year 2018 totals $41,051,166 and the five year Capital
Improvement Plan (CIP) totals $171,912,855. The majority of CIP projects in the five year period
improve the local transportation network and municipal utility system. The five year program
continues to reflect the City Council's priorities established in previous fiscal years.

As funding allows, non -committed dollars are directed toward critical infrastructure projects and
initiatives that address the City Council's strategic plan priorities. Of particular note is the use of
the funds collected through the flood mitigation local option sales tax that was in place from
2009-2013. This 1% sales tax generated approximately $35 million for the expansion of the
South Wastewater Treatment Plant and the Gateway Project. The wastewater project has been
completed; the Gateway Project began construction in 2016.
Staff is projecting general obligation bond issues of $9.8 million in 2017, $12.9 million in 2018,
and $12.3 million in 2019 including 2% for bond issuance costs. The use of general obligation
bonds is required in order to carry out the projects that are being recommended. The level of
bonding projected is well below the thresholds established by the State of Iowa and is
consistent with Iowa City's own internal debt policies.
Examples of significant projects planned for the coming calendar years include (many projects
will span multiple years):
2017
• Gateway (Dubuque and Park Road Bridge)
• Riverside Drive Pedestrian Tunnel and Streetscape
• Riverfront Crossings Park Development
• Hickory Hill Park Redevelopment
• Clinton / Burlington Intersection and Road Diet
2018
• Madison / Burlington Intersection and Road Diet
• Public Works Facility Phase 1
• Highway 1 Trail Extension (Sunset to Mormon Trek)
• Pedestrian Mall Rehabilitation
• Creekside and Cardigan Park Development
2019
• West Iowa Riverbank Restoration (Highway to Benton)
• Willow Creek Park Redevelopment Phases 2 and 3
• McCollister Boulevard (Gilbert to Sycamore)
• First Avenue Water Main Replacement (400-500 Block)
2020
• American Legion Road (Scott to Taft)
• Melrose Avenue Improvements
• Robert A. Lee Recreation Center Improvements
• Wetherby Park Bathroom and Shelter Replacement

2021
• Highway 6 Trail Construction (Sycamore to Heinz)
• Chadek Green Park Improvements
• Dubuque Street Reconstruction (Iowa to Washington)
• First Avenue / Scott Boulevard Intersection Improvement
• Kirkwood to Capitol Street Connector and Water Main Replacement
Debt Service
The State of Iowa limits City debt to no more than 5% of the total assessed value of taxable
property within the corporate limits as established by the City Assessor. The budget anticipates
an outstanding debt of $67.9 million at fiscal year 2018 year end, which is 1.2% of total
valuations and well below the State of Iowa threshold. Considering these figures, Iowa City is
carrying debt equal to roughly 24.8% of the allowable level. The following chart provides a
historical view of Iowa City's debt in relation to the allowable debt level.

Iowa City's internal fiscal policy specifies that the debt service levy shall not exceed 30% of the
total property tax levy. The fiscal year 2018 budget includes a debt service levy that is
approximately 22% of the total levy.
The budget continues to reflect prudent borrowing practices, which help preserve financial
flexibility and ultimately lower the cost of borrowing. Over the last several years, Iowa City has
worked to reduce its debt load, which in turn has allowed the City to devote more financial
resources to service delivery and fewer resources to interest payments. Recent early bond
redemptions include $3.8 million in fiscal year 2015 and $2.1 million in fiscal year 2016. There is
planned $3.0 million in fiscal year 2017 and $3.8 million in fiscal year 2018, which will reduce
future debt service payments by a total of over $380,000.
PM
Looking Ahead
This year's budget was again developed with an understanding that revenue sources in future
years will be dramatically affected by 2013 reforms at the state level concerning commercial
property taxes, the tax classification of multi -family buildings, and the allowable growth
percentage. The statewide changes will disproportionately affect growing communities with
large multi -family residential markets like Iowa City.
Thus, it is imperative that the City continues to pursue initiatives that reduce the overreliance on
property tax revenue and ensure services are being delivered in the most efficient manner
possible. Prudent financial decisions in recent years, including those that streamlined
operations and reduced debt loads has provided the City some flexibility in dealing with
declining property tax revenue. However, in order to maintain services at or near current levels
this degree of planning must continue. To do otherwise is to risk precipitous drops in service
levels or rapidly increasing tax rates as the effects of state reforms are fully realized.
This budget continues the policy of contributing general fund balance in excess of 30% of
expenditures to the emergency fund. The emergency fund is in part intended to be available in
the event that the State does not continue backfill funding. Other potential uses for such
emergency funds include disaster relief and mitigation funding; health care, insurance, or
pension funding anomalies or emergencies; the avoidance of any defaults from the payment of
long term or bonded debts; or any other financial emergency declared by the City Council.
The City's enterprise funds are in stable condition. Recent and ongoing capital investments in
Water and Wastewater plants will provide a solid utility foundation; however aging distribution
infrastructure has necessitated a review of fees. Water rates were increased in fiscal years 2015
and 2016 and storm water fees were increased in 2017. The 2018 budget includes increases in
refuse fees that support curbside composting, single stream recycling and a streamlined leaf
pickup program. It is likely that additional water rate increases will be needed in fiscal year
2019 and fiscal year 2020.
From a capital investment standpoint, the City needs to continue to focus on catching up with
deferred maintenance on streets, in parks, and throughout our utility distribution system. At the
same time we have to be opportunistic with new opportunities such as the Riverfront Crossings
Park and key road connections such as McCollister Boulevard.
Conclusion and Acknowledgements
This budget document reflects Iowa City's focus on providing high quality municipal services in
a fiscally responsible manner. It was crafted with guidance provided by the City Council through
the Strategic Plan.
The City's financial condition remains strong and our reserve levels provide sufficient flexibility
in the event of unexpected conditions. While property tax reform will create funding challenges
in the upcoming years, with proper planning and realistic priority setting the City will be in a
position to achieve our long-term goals.
rrA
In conclusion, I would be remiss if I did not acknowledge the efforts of our department heads,
supervisors, and staff in submitting responsible spending plans for the coming year. I would like
to specifically recognize the efforts of the Finance Department, led by Director Dennis
Bockenstedt. Additionally, I would like to recognize the hard work and analysis of Budget
Analyst Nick Schaul and Administrative Secretary Cyndi Ambrose. The compilation of this
complex document requires a significant amount of work, which was largely performed by these
three employees in the Finance Department.

Strategic Plan
Strategic Plan and the Financial Plan
This Three -Year Financial Plan for fiscal years 2017 through 2019 and the fiscal year 2018
budget were prepared with a strategic plan serving as a guide. In preparing the financial plan
and budget, the City recognized the impact that funding decisions would have on future
progress to the organization's stated priorities in the plan. As a result, this budget aims to

Strategic Plan and STAR
Starting in fiscal year 2018, the City Council's Strategic Plan Priorities and Initiatives are being
linked to the Sustainability Tools for Assessing and Rating Communities program (STAR) to
measure progress in those areas of focus.
STAR is the nation's leading framework and certification program for evaluating local
sustainability and encompasses social, economic and environmental performance measures.
STAR helps communities evaluate their strengths and weaknesses across seven goal areas:
• Built Environment: Achieve livability, choice, and access for all where people live, work,
and play.
• Climate and Energy: Reduce climate impacts through adaptation and mitigation efforts
and increase resource efficiency.
• Economy and Jobs: Empower vibrant, educated, connected, and diverse communities.
• Education, Arts, and Community: Create equitably shared prosperity and access to
quality jobs.
• Equity and Empowerment: Ensure equity, inclusion, and access to opportunity for all
citizens.
• Health and Safety: Strengthen communities to be healthy, resilient and safe places for
residents and businesses.
• Natural Systems: Protect and restore the natural resource base upon which life
depends.
31
Within each of the above sustainability goals, there are between 6-7 Objectives. These 44
objectives are the core areas that contain evaluation measures and metrics. The table below
depicts all of the STAR Objectives.

Strateaic Plan. STAR. and Performance Measures
As a participating community in STAR, the City is given a community rating that can be used to
compare Iowa City against other participating communities. The STAR program identifies 516
separate measures across the 44 goals and objectives that they use to rate the participating
communities. The intent of the rating system is to help communities identify, validate, and
support implementation of best practices to improve sustainable community conditions.
Each City division has identified performance measures and/or STAR measures that align with
their department's goals and objectives. Within the division pages of each fund, these goals
and objectives are then linked with the City Council's Strategic Plan Priorities and the STAR
program's objectives, if applicable. STAR measures are identified with a star next to them.
By linking the division performance and STAR measures and the Strategic Plan Priorities, a
framework is created that aligns division activities with the Strategic Plan. Using the STAR
program's measures, it should also give the City Council and staff readily accessible data on
many of the Strategic Plan Priorities. In addition, this framework gathers the necessary data
and tracks the City's progress in meeting the STAR program's goals and objectives and
subsequently, its community rating.
In addition to adding new STAR performance measures in the division pages, a subset of 21
STAR outcomes can be found in the Statistics section of the Financial Plan. Residents will also
be able to view these on an online dashboard on the STAR and Iowa City websites.
STAR Community Rating
A community's STAR Community Rating is granted for four calendar years from the date of
certification. Upon the fourth anniversary of the community's certification, the community must
have completed the verification process and accepted a final verified score in order to maintain
certification in the rating system.
National Context for Iowa City's Score
Out of the certified 4 -STAR communities, Iowa City's score falls towards the high end of the
pack. Iowa City's STAR certification is a testament to the City's commitment to creating a better
community for all of its residents and will serve as a benchmark from which to move forward.

The City of Iowa City was awarded a 4 -STAR Community Rating for
sustainability excellence by being formally certified in March of 2016. The
city's approved final score is 484.8, which qualifies Iowa City as a certified
�of
4-STAR Community and the highest -scoring city in the State of Iowa. Iowa
City was the fifth community in Iowa and the 47`h nationwide to achieve
certification from STAR Communities, a nonprofit organization that certifies
sustainable communities.

This graph above illustrates final scores of all Certified Communities as of June 2016. Iowa
City's comparative ranking is shown in red.
The purpose of becoming a certified community is to understand best practices which a city can
undertake to continuously improve. City staff attended a post -certification workshop in July 2016
to identify areas on which to focus improvement in the upcoming years which also align with the
strategic plan. The workshop was facilitated by STAR staff, which provided a report
summarizing Iowa City's results.

Other Planning Processes
Comprehensive Plan/District Plans - The City of Iowa City Comprehensive Plan, titled Iowa
City 2030, was adopted in the summer of 2013; it presents a vision for Iowa City, provides a
strategy for realizing the vision and sets policies for the growth and development of specific
geographic areas of the city. The Comprehensive Plan guides decisions on planning and
development issues as they arise. The plan evolves as amendments are made.
The plan divides the community into ten planning districts. Detailed plans will be conducted for
each planning district to address the unique issues, features and goals of the different parts of
the city. This process involves extensive citizen participation so that the people of Iowa City help
determine the future of their community. Once adopted by the City Council, the district plans
become part of the Iowa City Comprehensive Plan.
Airport Strategic Plan - The Iowa City Municipal Airport exists to serve the general aviation
needs of the greater Iowa City community. This strategic plan is to guide the direction of the
Iowa City Municipal Airport and is updated every five years. Through implementation of the Iowa
City Municipal Airport Master Plan and FAA Airport Layout Plan, facilities will be maintained and
upgraded to comply with the latest safety features and FAA regulations.
Fire Strategic Plan - In an effort to work toward self-improvement, the Iowa City Fire
Department (ICFD) contracted with the Center for Public Safety Excellence (CPSE) to facilitate
a method to document the department's path into the future - this resulted in the development
and implementation of a "Community -Driven Strategic Plan." The strategic plan was written in
accordance with the guidelines set forth in the CFA I Fire & Emergency Service Self -
Assessment Manual 8th Ed., and is intended to guide the organization within established
parameters set forth by the authority having jurisdiction.
The CPSE utilized the Community—Driven Strategic Planning process to go beyond just the
development of a document. It challenged the membership of the ICFD to critically examine
paradigms, values, philosophies, beliefs and desires, and challenged individuals to work in the
best interest of the "team." Furthermore, it provided the membership with an opportunity to
participate in the development of their organization's long-term direction and focus. Members of
the department's external and internal stakeholders' groups performed an outstanding job in
committing to this important project and remain committed to the document's completion.
The Iowa City Fire Department's Strategic Plan sets forth a comprehensive vision and mission
statement that provides the agency with a clear path into the future. Additionally, this strategic
plan identifies the core values that embody how the agency's members, individually and
collectively, will carry out the agency's mission. In the following pages, the ICFD identifies its
goals, objectives, and strategies that will allow the agency to realize its vision.
Capital Improvement Plan — The five-year capital improvement program is developed and
updated annually through a process involving all City departments in the collection and review
of the capital improvement needs of the City. The plan reviews, plans, and prioritizes the capital
Kiy
replacement and capital expansion needs of the City in coordination with the City's financial
strengths. The first year of the City's five-year capital improvement plan is integrated into the
City's financial plan in the Capital Projects Fund section.
Park Master Plan - The Iowa City Parks Master Plan is intended to help meet the needs of
current and future residents by positioning Iowa City to build on the community's unique parks
and recreation assets and identify new opportunities. The community -driven plan establishes a
clear direction to guide city staff, advisory committees, and elected officials in their efforts to
enhance the community's parks system, outdoor recreation spaces and services.
Natural Areas Master Plan - The Natural Areas Master Plan includes assessing ecological
health of city -owned natural areas and developing a ten-year Master Plan for natural area
improvements and maintenance that maximizes the ecological health and benefits of these areas.
Iowa City Public Library Strategic Plan — The Library's strategic plan establishes the library's
long range values, objectives, and goals. The plan also establishes three primary goals
including connecting people to information essential for daily living and offering them
opportunities for enjoyment and personal growth; encouraging discovery, learning, and greater
participation in community life; and contributing to the quality of life in Iowa City by offering
opportunities to explore diverse ideas, to exercise imagination, and to express creativity. The
library strategic plan is updated every five years.
Long Range Transportation Plan - The Long Range Transportation Plan is the transportation
vision for the community in the same way that a comprehensive plan is the land use vision for a
municipality. A comprehensive plan provides the basis for subsequent zoning and subdivision
laws in a municipality, and the long range transportation plan should provide a similar basis for
the programming of projects for all modes of transportation, specifically federally -funded
transportation. The Long Range Transportation Plan should be consistent with the land use
plans of individual entities that belong to Metro Planning Organization of Johnson County
(MPOJC). The Long Range Transportation Plan is subject to a public comment process which
assures that members of the public have had adequate opportunity to comment on the
provisions of the proposed plan. The Plan should reflect priorities for the community that can be
translated into politically and financially feasible transportation projects. The Federal
requirement is that Long Range Plans are revised and adopted every five years.
Iowa City Bike Master Plan - Iowa City is currently developing a Bicycle Master Plan that
builds upon other City planning efforts to expand the role that bicycling plays in achieving the
City's stated goals for transportation, economic development, neighborhood livability,
community identity, safety, environmental preservation, and health and wellness. The goal is to
create a Bicycle Master Plan that identifies and prioritizes bicycle improvements based on
existing conditions, adopted plans and policies, and the particular needs of bicyclists in Iowa
City gathered through public input. The plan will focus on identifying near- and long-term
strategies and prioritized actions for increasing bicycle ridership, comfort, connectivity, and
safety for bicyclists of all ages and abilities, creating a framework for expanding Iowa City's
bicycle network. This includes identifying a set of timely actions and improvements to achieve a
Bicycle Friendly Community'Gold' status.

MISSION STATEMENT
The mission of the Senior Center is to promote optimal aging among older adults by offering
programs and services that promote wellness, social interaction, community engagement,
and intellectual growth. The Center serves the public through intergenerational
programming and community outreach.
DEPARTMENT DESCRIPTION
Establishing social connections, keeping active physically and mentally, and maintaining
contact with the community are cornerstones of optimal aging, and they are what we do best
at The Center.
Establishing Social Connections
• Social interaction and engagement is an essential component of all programming.
Classes, programs, special events, performance groups, volunteer activities, clubs, and
organizations all incorporate time for participants to interact with each other.
W
Keeping Active, Physically and Mentally
• Classes: The Center provides abundant educational opportunities. Classes cover
everything from literature and fitness to video production, music, and art education.
They are taught by knowledgeable volunteers and independent contractors. All are non-
credit with no tests or educational prerequisites.
• Volunteer Service: Center volunteers work as teachers, leaders, project directors,
building supervisors, or special project volunteers. They play a critical role in the
successful operation of The Center. Notably, this type of volunteering can bring a sense
of purpose or meaningfulness to a person's life.
Maintaining Contact with the Community
• Community Services Offered at The Center: The AARP Tax Aide Program,
University of Iowa Counseling Services, Volunteer Lawyers, Senior Health Insurance
Information Program, Visiting Nurses Association, Senior Nutrition Program, and
Respecting Your Wishes all ensure that the community comes into The Center.
• The Center Reaches Out to the Community: Center volunteers share information
about The Center and conduct fundraising activities in a variety of venues.
Performances by music, theater, choral, dance and poetry groups are regularly
scheduled throughout the community. Performances benefit both the performers and the
audience. Performers share their talents with the community and maintain or expand
mental fitness and social connections. Viewers enjoy entertainment in an environment
that promotes social interaction.
Boards and Commissions:
The Senior Center Commission is comprised of seven members with renewable three-year
terms. Six members are appointed by the City Council. The seventh at -large member must be
a Johnson County resident living outside of Iowa City. This person is appointed by a majority
vote of the six Council appointees. Duties and powers of the Commission include serving in an
advisory role to the City Council with regard to the needs of the Senior Center. Commission
members make recommendations on policies and programs and join staff and other interested
persons in seeking adequate financial resources for the operation of The Center. They
encourage full participation of older adults in Center programs and activities and work to ensure
that The Center is well integrated into the community. Commissioners encourage partnering
with other organizations to meet the needs of older adults; serve in an advocacy role with regard
to the needs of older adults; and assist the City Manager in the evaluation of personnel.

BUDGETARY FUND STRUCTURE
A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that
have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City, like other state and local
governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance -related
legal requirements. All of the funds of the City can be divided into three categories:
governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds.
Governmental Funds
• The General Fund is the City's primary operating fund and includes activities in the
following program areas: general government, public works, public safety, culture and
recreation, community and economic development, and health and social services.
• Special Revenue funds account for proceeds from specific sources (other than those
accounted for within capital projects funds) which are usually required by law or regulation
to be accounted for in separate funds and to be expended for specific purposes. Examples
include the employee benefits tax levy; Community Development Block Grant (CDBG),
Road Use Tax receipts; membership contributions to the Metropolitan Planning
Organization of Johnson County (formerly known as JCCOG), taxes generated for a Self -
Supporting Municipal Improvement District (SSMID), and tax increment financing (TIF)
property tax receipts.
• The Debt Service Fund accounts for principal and interest payments on the City's
general long-term debt. Funding is provided by the debt service property tax levy,
transfers from Water Operations, and loan repayments.
• Capital Project funds account for the acquisition and/or construction of major facilities
and assets in excess of $25,000.
• Permanent funds account for resources in which the entity is restricted to expending
earnings and not principal for purposes that support a specific program. The City has one
permanent fund, the Perpetual Care fund, which supports the City's cemetery.
Proprietary Funds
• Enterprise funds are primarily self-supporting in that they are financed by program and/or
user fees for the services provided. Such functions for the City of Iowa City include
Parking, Transit, Wastewater Treatment, Water, Refuse Collection, Landfill, and Storm
Water Management. The Airport and Iowa City Housing Authority are also classified as
enterprise funds. The Iowa City Housing Authority's primary funding source is through the
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)'s federal grant and voucher
programs. The Transit and Airport funds both receive an operating subsidy from the
General Fund. Cable Television operations were reclassified as part of the General Fund
in fiscal year 2016.
ria
• Internal Service funds (non -budgetary) are also self-supporting and financed on a cost -
reimbursement basis through charges to the departments and divisions (budgetary units)
which utilize their goods and services. Such activities are not reportable, based on the
State of Iowa's budget filing requirements, nor are they reflected in the government -wide
financial statements. These funds are also not included in the Major fund determinations.
Funds in this category include Equipment, Information Technology Services, Risk
Management, Central Services, and the Health and Dental Reserves.
Fiduciary Funds
• Agency funds (non -budgetary) are fiduciary funds that account for resources held for
the benefit of parties outside the city government. For this reason, agency funds are not
appropriated through the budget process, nor are they reflected in the government -wide
financial statements. The City has one agency fund presented, Project Green. Agency
funds do not report revenues and expenditures; they only report assets and liabilities.
Major Funds
During the preparation of the City's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, (CAFR), funds are
evaluated based upon the level of their assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenditures/expenses
to determine whether or not they are a major fund. Governmental accounting standards sets
forth the following minimum provisions for determining which governmental and enterprise
funds to treat as a major fund:
The City's main operating fund, the General Fund is always reported as major. Other funds
would be classified as major if the following two conditions are met:
1. Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses of the individual
governmental or enterprise fund are at least 10 percent of the corresponding total of all
funds of that category; and
2. Total assets, liabilities, revenues or expenditures/expenses of the individual
governmental or enterprise fund are at least 5 percent of the total for all governmental and
enterprise funds combined.
If a fund is determined to be a major fund, its financial information is reported separately in the
City's CAFR and cannot be reported in aggregate with other nonmajor funds of its fund
category (governmental or enterprise). For budgetary presentation, all of the City's funds are
presented individually.

Introduction
This Three -Year Financial Plan is for fiscal years 2017 through 2019. The Financial Plan
includes the current year revised budget (fiscal year 2017), the one-year annual budget as
required by Iowa Code (fiscal year 2018), and provides an additional projection year (fiscal
year 2019) as a planning tool. The City's fiscal year begins on July 1 and ends June 30.
The purpose of the overview is to disclose the basis on which the financial plan has been
prepared.
The role of a government's operating budget differs from that of a private business.
Budgets are an important internal planning tool for business, but they also play an external
role for governmental entities. A multi-year financial plan informs parties inside and
outside government of future objectives and provision of services to its constituents.
The Three -Year Financial Plan also permits a more comprehensive review of the City's
financial condition, allowing analysis of current and future needs and requirements.
During preparation of the plan, careful review is made of property tax levy rates, utility and
user fee requirements, ending cash balances by fund, debt service obligations, bond
financing needs, capital outlay for equipment purchases, and major capital improvement
projects. Long range financial plans are developed for debt service obligations, capital
improvement projects, and other areas that have been identified as areas of risk, need, or
general prudence.
This document contains operating budgets for the governmental funds: general, special
revenue, debt service, capital project and permanent funds. It also includes budgets for
the proprietary funds: enterprise and internal service funds. Internal service fund activities
are considered non -budgetary in that they are not formally appropriated, reported to the
State of Iowa, or included in the adopted budget resolution approved by City Council each
year. This is in accordance with the State's filing requirements.
Budget projections are summarized by major revenue and expenditure categories within
each division. A separate multi-year Capital Improvements Program (CIP) shows
budgeted revenue and expenditures for years 2017 through 2021.
Basis of Accounting
The modified accrual basis of accounting has been used for preparation of the City's fiscal
year 2018 budget for all funds and fund types including proprietary funds. The modified
accrual basis of accounting used in the preparation of the fiscal year 2018 budget is
similar to the accounting basis used in the City's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report
(CAFR) for the governmental funds, except for the treatment of interfund loans, loan
repayments, and same fund transfers.
All of the City's governmental funds are accounted for using the modified accrual basis of
accounting. The modified accrual basis of accounting uses a current financial resources
measurement focus, which generally includes only current assets and current liabilities on
the balance sheet. Under the modified accrual basis, revenue is recognized when
susceptible to accrual, which is in the period in which it becomes both available (collectible
within the current period or soon thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current
rig]
period) and measurable (the amount of the transaction can be determined). Revenue
accrued includes property taxes, intergovernmental revenue, and interest earned on
investments (if they are collected within 60 days after the year-end). Expenditures are
recorded when the related fund liability is incurred. Principal and interest on long-term
debt, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences and claims and
judgments, are recorded only when payment is due. This basis differs from that used in
the CAFR for the government -wide financial statements and the proprietary fund
statements.
The government -wide financial statements and the proprietary fund statements are
accounted for on the flow of economic resources measurement focus and use the accrual
basis of accounting in the City's CAFR. Agency funds do not have a measurement focus
and use the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual method, revenues are
recorded when earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred. The
City applies all applicable Financial Accounting Standards Board pronouncements issued
on or before November 30, 1989, except those that conflict with GASB pronouncements,
in accounting and reporting for these funds.
Annual Preparation Schedule
The City Manager instructs the Department Heads on whether any changes in level of
service can be factored into the proposed financial plan. This is done before the actual
budget process starts. Changes to the financial plan are done annually during the budget
process. All revenue and expenditure estimates are re-evaluated and revised if necessary.
In August each year, the Finance Department meets with Department Directors and
Division Heads to review and discuss their goals and performance measures. These are
reviewed against the City's long-term strategic plan and updated as necessary. The
Finance Department then collects the data from each division and prepares the
performance measurement results.
In September, forms and instructions are delivered to departments for the annual update
to the Five -Year Capital Improvement Program. The status of prior year projects is
reviewed as well as the long-term debt projections. Updates to projects already in the
Program, requests for new projects including their cost estimate, availability of outside
funding sources, operating impact, and rating score are submitted by departments.
In early October, Department Directors and Division Heads are able to access their
respective budget projections. They can make adjustments to their operating budget
during this time. The Finance Department compiles salary projections, history of each
department/division's actual line item expenditures, and projected revenues and costs
covered by the Financial Plan. (The Finance Department projects revenues individually
and uses a combination of inflation factors and individual costs to project expenditures.)
During October, the Finance Department produces the preliminary Capital Improvement
Program. This is reviewed through a series of meetings by a Capital Project Review
Committee and modifications are made based on project timing and coordination,
community development, funding availability, and other factors.
In late October, budget entry is restricted and only accessible to the Finance Department,
and the Finance Department issues the proposed Five -Year Capital Improvement
Program.
74
In November, the Finance Department reviews the budget projections with requests added
and compiles them all into a budget. Long range financial plans are reviewed and
integrated into the annual budget and rate or budget adjustments are determined. All
budget forms and adjustments are forwarded to the City Manager.
By mid-December, the City Manager and Finance Department decide which modifications
to operations will be made. A tax levy is computed. Analysis is done so all funds have
required balances or zero balances. The proposed Five -Year Capital Improvement
Program, division performance measures and goals, and the annual and projected budget
are combined into one document. The Proposed Financial Plan document is then printed.
City Council reviews the Proposed Financial Plan during the month of January.
In February, The Proposed Financial Plan and a memo of Council's changes are
presented to the public. A public hearing is held at least one week prior to the final
adoption.
In March, the final Three -Year Financial Plan and Five -Year Capital Improvement Program
are adopted by the City Council. The State of Iowa requires a one-year budget be
adopted by March 15 of each year. The applicable year in Iowa City's Three -Year
Financial Plan is adopted as the annual budget to satisfy State requirements. If increases
to service rates or charges are included as part of the next year's budget, those rate
changes are then adopted in March following adoption of the budget.
Amending the Adopted Budget
Budget amendments are typically presented to the City Council twice a year, with a public
hearing held each time to allow for citizen input. The first public hearing is usually held in
early fall, and the second and/or final hearing is in late spring. All amendments must be
formally approved and certified to the State of Iowa by May 31st, as required by law.
The fall budget amendment is primarily comprised of appropriations from the prior year
that must be 'carried -forward' or re -appropriated as part of the new fiscal year. These
carry forwards are in two forms 1) unspent department appropriations, and 2) incomplete
capital improvement projects.
Departments may request to carry appropriations forward into the next fiscal year that
remain unspent at the end of the fiscal year. These requests are submitted to the Finance
Director for review and then approved or denied by the City Manager. In order for an
appropriation to be carried forward into the next fiscal year, it must meet the following
criteria:
1) The appropriation must be for an item or service specifically listed in the
requesting department's budget. Appropriations for regular and ordinary
operating expenditures may not be carried forward. Purchases of items and
services not listed in the requesting department's budget are not eligible for
carryover.
2) The amount of the appropriation may not be lower than the lesser of 1) one
percent of the activity's budget, or 2) $5,000.
M1
3) All appropriations to be carried forward are contingent upon adequate, available
resources and fund balance.
In addition to these carry forward requests, there are many capital improvement projects
that span across fiscal years. These projects must be re -appropriated in accordance with
State budget law. The Finance Department compiles a summary of capital projects and
their remaining, unspent appropriations, and then these unspent project appropriations are
included as part of the budget amendment for the following fiscal year. These two types of
budget carry forwards are the primary basis for the first budget amendment of the year.
The second budget amendment is compiled during the annual budget process. While
department budget requests for the next year are being compiled during the budget
process, departments also submit their revised budget requests for the current year.
These requests help formulate the revised budget for the current year. Revisions to the
current year budget must still comply with the City's budget amendment policy. Following
the completion of the next year's budget process and approval in March, the second
budget amendment is compiled and submitted for City Council approval.
Budget Reporting
In accordance with Code of Iowa, the City Council annually adopts a budget following
required public notice and hearing which includes all funds, except internal service funds
and agency funds.
Formal and legal budgetary control is based upon nine major classes of expenditures
known as functions, not by fund or fund type. These nine functions are: Public Safety,
Public Works, Health and Social Services, Culture and Recreation, Community and
Economic Development, General Government, Debt Service, Capital Projects and
Business Type/Enterprises. The legal level control is at the aggregated function level, not
at the fund or fund type level.
Financial statements which compare the fiscal year's actual revenues and expenditures to
budgeted authority are published by the 31st of December immediately following the end
of the fiscal year (June 30). These statements are also presented for the City as a whole in
the notes to that year's Financial Report. Legal compliance is met if actual expenditures do
not exceed the budgeted expenditures by function areas.

FINANCIAL AND FISCAL POLICIES
The City of Iowa City's financial policies set forth the basic framework for the overall fiscal
management of the City. These policies assist the decision-making process of the City Council.
These policies provide guidelines for evaluating both current activities and proposals for future
programs.
Most of the policies represent long-standing principles, traditions and practices, and follow
generally accepted accounting principles which have guided the City in the past and have helped
maintain financial stability.
OPERATING BUDGET POLICIES
• The City will prepare an annual balanced budget for all operating funds. A balanced budget is
one that has revenues sufficient to equal expenditures.
• The City will maintain a budgetary control system to ensure adherence to the budget and will
prepare quarterly reports comparing actual revenues and expenditures to budget.
• Operating budgets are established on a fund/department/division/activity basis.
• A contingency account will be maintained in the annual General Fund operating budget to
provide for unanticipated expenditures or to meet unexpected small increases in service
delivery costs, budgeted annually at approximately one percent of expenditures and transfers
out.
• Budget amendments may be submitted twice per year and require approval of the Department
Director, the Finance Director, and the City Manager. The City Council formally reviews and
approves all budget amendments processed by staff twice per year — once in the late
summer/early fall and once in the spring.
1) Increases or amendments to operating budgets are made only in the following
situations:
• emergency situations
• transfer from contingency
• expenditures with offsetting revenues or fund balance
• carry-over of prior year budget authority for expenses that had not been paid as of
the end of the fiscal year.
2) Emergency Reserve funds will be transferred to operations for the following purposes:
• to provide natural or other disaster response or mitigation funding/interim loans
• to mitigate fluctuations or sudden elimination of State of Iowa property tax backfill or
other State operating assistance
• to mitigate pension, insurance, or health care funding anomalies, emergencies, or
spikes
• to avoid any defaults from the payment of long term or bonded debts
• for any other financial emergencies declared by the City Council
W1
3) Departments may request to carry-over appropriations into the next fiscal year that
remain unspent at the end of the fiscal year. These requests are submitted to the
Finance Director for review and then approved or denied by the City Manager, and are
amended into the following year's budget. In order for an appropriation to be carried
forward into the next fiscal year, it must meet the following criteria:
• The appropriation must be for an item or service specifically listed in the
requesting department's budget. Appropriations for regular and ordinary
operating expenditures may not be carried forward.
• The amount of the appropriation may not be lower than the lesser of 1) one
percent of the activity's budget, or 2) $5,000.
• All appropriations to be carried forward are contingent upon adequate, available
resources and fund balance.
• Capital improvement projects that span across fiscal years must be re -appropriated
each year in accordance with State budget law. The Finance Department compiles
a summary of capital projects and their remaining, unspent appropriations at year-
end. These unspent project appropriations are included as part of the budget
amendment for the following fiscal year.

economic development activities. Inherent in the plan is to attract new development
including residential, commercial and industrial uses to grow the tax base. Further, the
purpose of the plan is to retain the city's existing business operations and to encourage
them to expand and foster spin-off business operations. The city's plan also supports
organizations which help to incubate, grow, foster, and create new business operations by
providing non-traditional collaborative environments.

the use of incentives. The city will not actively recruit business from other jurisdictions
within our MSA unless a business is seeking to expand or considering a relocation outside
the state. Should businesses from jurisdictions within our MSA wish to locate in the City of
Iowa City we will notify our neighboring jurisdiction of the interest. It will be the general
practice of the City of Iowa City to not provide economic incentives to business wishing to
relocate from another jurisdiction within our MSA unless a business is seeking to expand or
considering a relocation outside the state.
• When incentive programs are utilized they will be used to maximize the benefits to the City
of Iowa City. The dollar amount of the incentive and time duration of the incentive shall be

by the City of Iowa City, City Council.
• Despite the need for the program to be flexible and nimble in order to respond to the ever
changing economic conditions of the marketplace, it will be the policy of the City to insure
that the process of using incentives is an open and transparent public process to instill
confidence in the public's understanding of how economic development incentives are
utilized.

to provide for unanticipated expenditures or to meet unexpected small increases in service
delivery costs, and will be budgeted at approximately one percent of expenditures.
• Operating fund balances at fiscal year-end will be maintained at a level to ensure sufficient
cash flow throughout the fiscal year. Unassigned fund balance in the General Fund reserves
will not go below 20% of total revenues and transfers in, with a ceiling of 30%. Fund

affordable housing developments, or economic development projects. Funding non-
emergency capital improvement projects shall not be authorized by the City Council unless
the project has been included in the Five -Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).
• The City shall strive to limit debt and to fund projects on a pay-as-you-go basis when
possible.
• The City shall manage its debt program so that the amount of net direct debt outstanding at

current and future beneficiaries or users. General obligation bonds will be limited to State
law as to the length of debt.

principal and should use a level principal or other rapidly amortizing structure whenever
possible. Long-term bonded debt should, as a general rule, be structured with level debt
service payments.
• The City may use lease -purchase obligations in lieu of bonded debt. Use of these
instruments will be limited to specific projects or purposes and will not be utilized as a
general practice for the financing of capital improvement projects.
• The City may enter into agreements with commercial banks or other financial entities for
purposes of acquiring lines of credit that shall provide access to credit under terms and
conditions as specified in such agreements.
REI

source of interim financing. Tax and Revenue Anticipation Notes will be used only on an
emergency basis and will not be used as a general practice to finance ongoing operations.
• General Obligation new money bonds shall be issued by competitive sale. Debt, except for
General Obligation new money bonds, may be sold through a negotiated sale or a private

a lower interest cost and/or effectively market the debt.
• The City may issue refunding bonds when legally permissible and prudent. The net present
value savings for an advanced refunding should equal or exceed seven percent. The net
present value savings for a current refunding should equal or exceed five percent. The City
may choose to refund outstanding indebtedness when existing bond covenants or other
financial structures impinge on prudent and sound financial management regardless of
projected net present value savings.

Long Range Financial Planning
Long range financial planning by the City's management is conducted in various areas. Currently,
for normal operating projections, the financial plan is limited to three years — the current year, the
next year adopted budget, and one year following the adopted budget. In addition to the three-year
financial plan, there are several areas of the City operations for which longer range financial plans
and projections are prepared. For these long range financial plans, the applicable years of the plan
are incorporated into the annual budget process and the three-year financial plan. Those areas of
the City's financial operations are described below.
Impact of State property tax reform
On May 22, 2013, the State of Iowa legislature passed a property tax reform bill (SF295) that will
have a significant impact on the City's ability to finance services in the future. The property tax
reform bill has multiple components including changes to the taxability of residential, multi -
residential, commercial, and industrial property. A'backfill' or replacement of local property taxes
with State funding was established to provide financial assistance to local governing jurisdictions
affected by the property tax legislation. Below is a summary of the estimated financial impact of the
provisions of SF295 to the City over its first ten years.
(1) 3% annual value growth
(2) At FY14 to rate
The City funds for which property tax is a significant funding source include the General Fund, the
Debt Service Fund, the Employee Benefits Fund, the Transit Fund, the SSMID-Downtown District
Fund, and the Tax Increment Financing Fund. Property tax also supports the Road Use Tax Fund,
the Airport Fund, and the Metro Planning Organization of Johnson County (MPOJC) Fund through
subsidy transfers from the Employee Benefits Fund and the General Fund.
The strategy that the City has undertaken is to 1) seek revenue diversification, 2) build contingency
funding to provide for unexpected events, and 3) work to build a more efficient organization and to
control spending. As part of this strategy, the City has created an Emergency Reserve fund that is
an assigned portion of the General Fund. The targeted balance for this reserve is the amount of the
State reimbursement for the commercial/industrial property tax replacement plus the City's pension
and OPEB liabilities. The Emergency Reserve is assigned for the following purposes: 1) to provide
natural or other disaster response or mitigation funding/interim loans, 2) to mitigate fluctuations or
sudden elimination of State of Iowa property tax backfill or other State operating assistance, 3) to
mitigate pension, insurance or health care funding anomalies, emergencies, or spikes, 4) to avoid
any defaults from the payment of long term or bonded debts, 5) for any other financial emergencies

The City funds for which property tax is a significant funding source include the General Fund, the
Debt Service Fund, the Employee Benefits Fund, the Transit Fund, the SSMID-Downtown District
Fund, and the Tax Increment Financing Fund. Property tax also supports the Road Use Tax Fund,
the Airport Fund, and the Metro Planning Organization of Johnson County (MPOJC) Fund through
subsidy transfers from the Employee Benefits Fund and the General Fund.
The strategy that the City has undertaken is to 1) seek revenue diversification, 2) build contingency
funding to provide for unexpected events, and 3) work to build a more efficient organization and to
control spending. As part of this strategy, the City has created an Emergency Reserve fund that is
an assigned portion of the General Fund. The targeted balance for this reserve is the amount of the
State reimbursement for the commercial/industrial property tax replacement plus the City's pension
and OPEB liabilities. The Emergency Reserve is assigned for the following purposes: 1) to provide
natural or other disaster response or mitigation funding/interim loans, 2) to mitigate fluctuations or
sudden elimination of State of Iowa property tax backfill or other State operating assistance, 3) to
mitigate pension, insurance or health care funding anomalies, emergencies, or spikes, 4) to avoid
any defaults from the payment of long term or bonded debts, 5) for any other financial emergencies
declared by the City Council. The Emergency Reserve estimated balance for fiscal year 2018 is
$5,198,779, which can be found as part of the General Fund section. The backfill revenue received
from the State of Iowa to replace property tax revenues lost due to the rollback of commercial and
industrial property was $1,048,359 in fiscal year 2015, $2,080,153 in fiscal year 2016, and is
estimated to be $1,581,040 in fiscal years 2017 and 2018.
Bus & Equipment replacement reserves
The City maintains long-term replacement reserves including cable television equipment, library
equipment, vehicles and heavy equipment, information technology equipment replacement, and
public transportation buses. Included in the operating budget are transfers and internal charges to
the replacement reserves for the purpose of funding the replacement of these types of equipment.
The transfers are equivalent to the annual depreciation on the equipment so that these replacements
are fully funded when they are necessary. The replacement reserve for buses is funded at 20% of
accumulated depreciation due to the availability of state and federal grants to make these
purchases. These grants typically fund 80% - 85% of the acquisition cost of the bus. The projected
balances for the equipment replacement funds for fiscal year 2018 are as follows:

Risk Management and Health & Dental Insurance Reserves (OPEB)
The City contracts for actuarial services for the purpose of calculating and maintaining reserves that
are intended to provide for certain liabilities. Actuarial calculations regarding liabilities for future
expenditures are determined for risk management (liability, workers compensation, and property
insurance) payments, health and dental insurance payments, and retiree health and dental
insurance benefits. Actuarial calculations are updated annually and help determine internal charge
rates and premium rates for risk management and health insurance charges. The estimated Risk
Management fund reserve for fiscal year 2018 is $3,594,234. The estimated Health Insurance
reserve for fiscal year 2018 is $10,333,217 of which $4,768,130 is being reserved for Other Poste
Employment Benefit (OPEB) liabilities. The estimated Dental Insurance reserve for fiscal year 2018
is $141,126.
Long-term general obligation bonded debt
A long-term general obligation bonded debt projection is prepared that incorporates the five-year
requirements as determined by the Capital Improvement Program. This projection is used to assist
the City in complying with its Debt Policy as well as determining the amount of funding available from
long-term debt that may be used for future improvements. As part of the City's long range financial
plan, the City is seeking to reduce the amount of improvements funded through long-term debt and
increase the amount of improvements funded through operating revenues.
Below is the City's long-term general obligation bonded debt projection for the next ten years:

The parking structure acquisition is expected to take place in fiscal year 2017, and a slight parking
permit rate adjustment for is planned for fiscal year 2018. Lease -purchase payments are expected
to begin in fiscal year 2018.
Water Rate Study
In May 2008, HDR Engineering completed a comprehensive water rate study for the City. In that
study, they identified the City's challenge to maintain capital funding rates equal to or greater than
depreciation to ensure the replacement of existing infrastructure. They also recommended that the
City implement rate increases of 5% in fiscal year 2010 and 3% in fiscal year 2011 to fiscal year
2017. Since that study, the City implemented rate increases of 5% in both fiscal years 2015 and
2016 and no rate adjustments are currently planned for fiscal year 2018. A rate adjustment of 2.60%
is projected for fiscal year 2019. Implementation of the water rate study was delayed due to the
economic downturn in 2009 and the drought conditions from 2012 through 2014. The table below
was taken from that rate study.
Landfill Replacement & Closure Reserves
The Landfill Fund maintains a number of reserves that serve various purposes. Some of these
reserves are required by law and some are created by management to financially prepare for future
occurrences. Legally, the City is required to maintain and fund a closure and a post -closure reserve
to ensure that sufficient funds are retained to close and monitor landfill cells as they become full. In
order to comply with these funding requirements, the City hires a certified landfill engineering firm to
calculate the future cost requirements and to provide us with a certified report. The City is required
to have a pro -rated share of this funding placed into the proper closure and post -closure funds based
upon the amount of tonnage that the landfill can accept versus how much has actually been
deposited. The City maintains these accounting records and files a funding report with the State of
Iowa annually. The estimated balances for fiscal year 2018 in the closure and post -closure funds
are $2,594,436 and $10,730,356, respectfully.

Fm
The City also maintains a reserve to set funds aside for the construction of new landfill cells as
current ones are closed. A cost -per -ton for landfill cell replacement has been calculated based on
the actual costs to replace the last landfill cell. Each quarter, as trash is deposited into the landfill, a
cost -per -ton transfer is made from the landfill operations to the replacement reserve. These funds
are intended to eliminate future borrowing or significant rate adjustments in order to open new cells.
The budgeted balance for the landfill cell replacement reserve for fiscal year 2018 is $8,326,911.
Capital Project Plan
The five-year capital improvement program (CIP) is developed and updated annually through a
process involving all City departments in the collection and review of the capital improvement needs
of the City. The plan reviews, plans, and prioritizes the capital replacement and capital expansion
needs of the City in coordination with the City's financial and operational demands. The City's five-
year capital improvement plan is integrated into the City's financial plan and annual budget. This
plan also coordinates with the City's long range debt planning to ensure that sufficient debt funding is
available at the time improvements are needed or expected. The projected debt issues in the
program have been integrated into the Debt Service Fund's budget.
Below is the five-year capital improvement plan expenditure summary by division.

1. Property Taxes - Property tax revenue of $32.9 million is the primary funding source for
General Fund operations, providing approximately 65% of total revenue, excluding
transfers in, in fiscal year 2018. The fiscal year 2018 budget is an increase of 3.7% of
the fiscal 7ear 2017 revised budget of $31.7 million and there is an average increase of
3.3% over the last five years. These totals do not include the transfer -in of the
Employee Benefits property tax levy from the Employee Benefits Fund. There are a
number of factors which determine the City's tax levy each year: property valuations by
class, the state's annual Assessment Limitation Order (rollback), TIF district valuations
and rebates, statutory limits on individual tax levies, the City's own Financial and Fiscal
Policies, restrictions from external entities on other financing sources, and funding
requirements for projected expenditures.
100% Assessment - Property valuations are set by the City and County Assessor. State
law requires that all real property be reassessed every two years, specifically in odd -
numbered years. Since 2003, valuations within the Iowa City corporate limits have
increased an average of 6.8% in revaluation years and 2.3% in non -revaluation years.
Valuations reported by the Johnson County Auditor's office for January 1, 2016 served as
the basis for determining property tax revenue in fiscal year 2018. Their report indicates
an 2.6% increase in total assessed value in the last year, from $5.35 billion to $5.49 billion.
112
Assessment Limitation Order / Rollback - The State of Iowa has a statutory growth
limitation of three percent (3%) annually on taxable residential property valuations. Each
year, the Department of Revenue's Assessment Limitation Order sets a 'rollback' value by
class which, when applied, determines taxable valuations. The growth restriction is applied
to the residential valuations, limiting the growth percentage in taxable value to agricultural
valuations. The impact is that the percentage growth in taxable valuations for urban
residential property each year is limited to either three percent (3%) or the growth in
agricultural property, whichever is lower.
Property Tax growth restrictions and rollbacks were changed with State legislation in 2013
with Iowa Senate File 295. That legislation added the following changes to property
taxation:
1. the annual growth limitation on residential property of three percent (3%) was
decreased from four percent (4%) starting in fiscal year 2015;
2. a rollback of ninety-five percent (95%) was added to commercial, industrial, and
railroad property classes starting in fiscal year 2015 and was lowered to ninety
percent (90%) starting in fiscal year 2016
3. the State added a reimbursement or "backfill" to jurisdictions for lost revenue due
to the rollback of valuation on commercial, industrial, and railroad properties; this
"backfill" is locked at the fiscal year 2017 amounts going forward starting in fiscal
year 2018;
4. a new multi -residential class of property was added in fiscal year 2017 that has a
declining rollback which will decrease each year until it matches the residential
rollback percentage.
In fiscal year 2009, the rollback exempted $1.7 billion of Iowa City's assessed valuation.
In fiscal year 2018 the rollback will exempt $2.0 billion of assessed valuations. The
residential and agricultural rollbacks for fiscal year 2018 are 56.9391% and 47.4996%,
respectively, compared to fiscal year 2017 rollbacks of 55.6259% and 46.1068%,
respectively.
Also, in fiscal year 2018 the commercial, industrial, and railroad rollback is 90%, which is
the same as fiscal year 2017. The multi -residential rollback in fiscal year 2018 is 82.5%
compared to the fiscal year 2017 rate of 86.25%. The following graph illustrates the impact
of the rollback on taxable valuations.

2. Other City Taxes - This category, estimated at $2.4 million in fiscal year 2018, includes
Hotel Motel Taxes of $1,078,760, $400,798 in gas and electric excise taxes, and $895,000
in utility franchise taxes. The fiscal year 2018 budget is a decrease of 0.8% of the fiscal
year 2017 revised budget of $2.4 million and there is an average decrease of 18.1%
over the last five years. The change is primarily from the local option sales tax, which
ended June 30, 2013.
a) Hotel Motel Tax. This revenue source is a state -administered tax. Estimated at
$1,078,760 in fiscal year 2018, the seven percent (7%) tax on gross hotel/motel room
rental receipts is distributed as follows:
Convention & Visitor's Bureau
25.00%
Police Patrol
47.50%
Parks & Recreational Facilities
27.50%
Total Hotel Motel 7% Tax
100.00%
b) Utility Replacement Excise Tax. The Gas and Electric Excise tax is collected on the
generation, distribution, and delivery of electricity and natural gas. This tax replaced
the taxation on utility property in 1999. Cities are required to calculate property tax
revenues with and without gas and electric utility property valuations. The calculated
difference is required to establish the General Property Tax Equivalents which is the
basis of the Iowa Department of Revenue distribution formula.
114
c) Utility Franchise Taxes on utility customers: Senate File 478 was enacted by the Iowa
state legislature during its 2009 session, establishing cities' right to impose a franchise
tax on gas and electric utilities. On February 16, 2010, the Iowa City Council passed
and approved an ordinance establishing a one percent (1%) tax to be expended for
the following purposes:
1) Inspecting, supervising and otherwise regulating the MidAmerican Energy
Company's gas and electric franchises.
2) Public safety, including the equipping of fire, police and emergency services.
3) Public infrastructure to support commercial and industrial economic
development.
Of the $895,000 estimate for fiscal year 2018, approximately $604,125 will remain in the
City's general fund for maintenance of the right-of-way and operational costs associated
with Fire Station #4. The remaining $290,875 is for recurring capital improvement projects
(CIP) in the right of way.
3. Licenses & Permits - This category consists of revenue received for building and rental
housing permits/inspections, franchise fees, plumbing license and taxi license fees; beer,
liquor and cigarette permittlicense fees (state regulated), sign permits, burial permits,
animal licensing and some miscellaneous fees. Fiscal year 2018 budget for Licenses and
Permits is estimated at $2.6 million. The fiscal year 2018 revenue is an increase of 4.1 %
of the fiscal year 2017 revised budget of $2.5 million and there is an average increase of
11.1% over the last five years. These increases are primarily due to the increase in
construction permits and licenses revenue and the addition of franchise fees from Cable
Television operations moving into the General Fund in fiscal year 2016.
4. Use of Money & Property - This revenue source consists of interest income and rents
and is budgeted at $671,957 for fiscal year 2018. The fiscal year 2018 budget is a
decrease of 4.9% of the fiscal year 2017 revised budget of $706,672; however, there is
an average increase of 2.4% over the last five years. The decrease from the fiscal year
2017 estimate is from a decrease in estimated interest income; the average increase
over the last five years is a result of increased rent revenue.
5. Intergovernmental - This revenue category includes state and federal grants, 28-E
agreements, and contracts with local governmental entities. Intergovernmental revenue
is budgeted at $3.5 million in fiscal year 2018. The fiscal year 2018 budget is a
decrease of 5.1% of the fiscal year 2017 revised budget of $3.7 million and there is an
average increase of 6.1% over the last five years. The decrease from the fiscal year
2017 amount and the average increase over the last five years are from estimates in the
property tax credits from property tax backfill from the state.
115
The majority of intergovernmental revenue is the result of 28E agreements with local entities
for services provided to area residents, as shown in the following schedule. The largest of
these agreements is for fire protection services to the University of Iowa, estimated at $1.7
million in fiscal year 2018, with $1.4 million receipted into the General Fund. The remainder is
deposited into the employee benefits fund as reimbursement for a percentage of Fire
employee benefits and into the capital projects fund as reimbursements for a percentage of
Fire capital assets.
6. Charges for Fees and Services - These revenues are for direct fees and charges for the use
of a City service, facility, or program. Divisions with fee-based services include: Parks and
Recreation, Police (special events, contracted services), Fire (inspections), Housing & Building
Inspection Services, Animal Care, and Cemetery services. Charges for Fees and Services
are budgeted at $1.4 million in fiscal year 2018. The fiscal year 2018 revenue is an increase
of 1.2% of the fiscal year 2017 revised budget of $1.4 million; however, there is an average
decrease of 0.9% over the last five years. The increase from the fiscal year 2017 estimate
is due to a projected increase in building and development fee revenue; the average
decrease is a result of a substantial decrease in building and development fee between
fiscal year 2016 and fiscal year 2017.

6. Charges for Fees and Services - These revenues are for direct fees and charges for the use
of a City service, facility, or program. Divisions with fee-based services include: Parks and
Recreation, Police (special events, contracted services), Fire (inspections), Housing & Building
Inspection Services, Animal Care, and Cemetery services. Charges for Fees and Services
are budgeted at $1.4 million in fiscal year 2018. The fiscal year 2018 revenue is an increase
of 1.2% of the fiscal year 2017 revised budget of $1.4 million; however, there is an average
decrease of 0.9% over the last five years. The increase from the fiscal year 2017 estimate
is due to a projected increase in building and development fee revenue; the average
decrease is a result of a substantial decrease in building and development fee between
fiscal year 2016 and fiscal year 2017.
7. Miscellaneous - Miscellaneous revenue is budgeted at $5.9 million in fiscal year 2018. This
category includes a variety of revenue sources, including parking fines ($351,210), magistrate
court fines and surcharges related to code enforcement ($253,180) and library fines
($155,520). Also included within this category are internal chargebacks of $4.2 million to the

divisions. The fiscal year 2018 revenue is an increase of 4.2% of the fiscal year 2017
revised budget of $5.7 million and there is an average increase of 6.1% over the last five
years. The increase from the fiscal year 2017 and the average increase amounts are due
to the administrative chargebacks for the Transportation & Resources Management
Administration division that started in fiscal year 2017 and the Engineering Division that
started in fiscal year 2016.
8. Other Financing Sources — Other financing sources include a limited number of special
transactions that are used to account for non-operating revenues/receipts such as the
proceeds from a loan or the sale of an asset. Other Financing Sources are budgeted at $1.3
million in fiscal year 2018, which is a decrease of 36.0% from the revised budget in fiscal year
2017 of $2.0 million. The decrease is from an approximate $735,000 is from the UniverCity
program. The UniverCity activity is budgeted at $1.0 million in fiscal year 2018, which consists
of the proceeds from the sale of assets ($510,000) and loan proceeds from financial
institutions ($510,000). There is an average idecrease of 33.8% over the last five years.
The change is from a reduction in UniverCity program since fiscal year 2014.

1. Personnel - Personnel costs account for approximately 72.8% of budgeted expenditures
(excluding transfers out) within the General Fund in fiscal year 2018. Employee benefit costs
are discussed in greater detail in the City Manager Address.
2. Services - Expenditures for services are budgeted at $10.1 million in fiscal year 2018. Initial
projections were based on fiscal year 2016 actual expenditures and projected at 1.51%
annually. This is in line with the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI -U)
over the last five fiscal years.
A number of operating costs within the services category have more specific inflationary
guidelines and methods of projection. This includes funding for liability, fire & casualty
insurance premiums; professional and consultant services; internal service fund charges
(Equipment, Information Technology Services, Risk Management, and Central Services);
training & education; building and equipment repair and maintenance services; vehicle and
equipment rentals. These costs are adjusted individually each year, based on specific
operating plans and projects, claims/loss history, trend analysis, and operations -specific
needs, each year.
The Services category also includes funding for initiatives such as Aid to Human Service
Agencies, Community Event Funding, support to the Iowa City Coralville Convention & Visitors
Bureau, and Community and Economic Development Assistance, as follows:
$300,000 Aid to Human Service Agencies
$865,700 Community Event/ Program Funding
$269,690 ICCVB —Community/ Economic Development Assistance
$135,000 Economic Development Assistance
3. Supplies - Supplies consist primarily of commodities that are consumed or depleted, such
as office and cleaning supplies, vehicle fuel and materials for repair and maintenance of
buildings, streets, and equipment. Expenditures for supplies are budgeted at $1.7 million in
fiscal year 2018. Individual items under costing under $5,000 are considered supplies. This
limit is consistent with the threshold utilized to capitalize assets for the comprehensive
annual financial report.
4. Capital Outlay — The general fund capital outlay is budgeted at $2.3 million in fiscal year
2018 and includes police vehicle replacements, library materials, operating equipment,
UniverCity Properties, and building maintenance and improvements of $5,000 or greater.
5. Other Financial Uses - This category is budgeted at $510,000 in fiscal year 2018. This
consists from loan repayments to financial institutions that are from the homes sold in the
UniverCity program
119
6. Contingency - A General Fund contingency amount is established each fiscal year for
those unforeseen expenditures that arise following formal adoption of the annual budget.
This amount is available for appropriation by formal amendment, subject to
recommendation from the Finance Director and City Manager, and approval by City Council.
Contingency is budgeted at one percent (1%) of General Fund expenditures (excluding
transfers) - approximately $545,000 in fiscal year 2018.
7. Transfers Out - This category is budgeted at $5.1 million in fiscal year 2018. The largest
transfers out is from the transit property tax levy of $3.4 million that is transferring into the
Transit Fund. Other major transfers out include approximately $798,000 to the Capital
Projects Fund and $650,000 to the Affordable Housing Fund.
C. Fund Balance
It is part of the City's Financial & Fiscal Policies that the General Fund's unassigned fund
balance shall not fall below twenty percent (20%) of total revenues and transfers in and not
grow greater than thirty percent (30%). This policy also states that fund balance in excess of
thirty percent (30%) of revenues and transfers in will be transferred to the City's Emergency
Fund, used to retire outstanding debt, and/or used to provide property tax relief. In fiscal year
2014, fiscal year 2015, and fiscal year 2016, $1.7 million, $1.3 million, and $1.7 million,
respectively, of General Fund unassigned fund balance was transferred into the Emergency
Fund. Also, in fiscal year 2017 unassigned fund balance of $500,000 will be transferred into
the Emergency Fund, which will bring the City's Emergency Fund balance to $5.2 million.
General Fund's unassigned fund balance is relied upon to provide cash flow during the first
quarter of the fiscal year as the majority of property taxes are not received until
October/November. The following chart demonstrates how expenditures have exceeded
receipts in the first three months over the past ten years.

The City has seven (7) Council members, who serve staggered, four-year terms. Four
Council members are "at -large" and are nominated by all voters and elected by all voters.
Although the three "district" Council members (Districts A, B, and C) are nominated solely by
voters within their districts and any primary is held only within the district, they are elected by
voters city-wide. Council elections are held in odd -numbered calendar years.
Council members select the Mayor from among themselves at their first meeting of the calendar
year after each city council election. The Mayor is a voting member of the council and has no
veto power. The Mayor is the official representative of the City, presiding officer of the Council
and its policy spokesperson.
The Council appoints the City Manager, City Attorney, and City Clerk. The City Manager serves
as the Chief Administrative Officer of the City.

The City Clerk is the official recordkeeping office of the City, performing recordkeeping duties
as prescribed by State Law, the City Charter, and the Municipal Code.
The City Clerk is appointed by the City Council, reports directly to the Council and attends all
City Council meetings. The City Clerk is charged with custody of deeds, contracts, and
abstracts. The Clerk's office is responsible for the keeping of all ordinances, resolutions,
minutes, and the City Code. The office publishes and posts public notices, ordinances, and
minutes as required by law. The City Clerk's office assists both staff and the general public in
researching information. Taxi company licenses and driver photo ID's, dancing permits, outdoor
service areas, cigarette licenses, beer/liquor licenses, and cemetery deeds are issued from the
Clerk's office. City subdivision files, project files, the Domestic Partnership Registry, and an
index of Council proceedings are also maintained in the office. In addition, the Clerk's office
provides service to Boards and Commissions by announcing and publishing vacancies;
monitoring applications and appointments; notifying applicants and updating the City website of
members.
The office provides staff support to the Community Police Review Board (CPRB), which was
formed based on a community initiative and established in 1997. The board reviews police
policies, procedures, and practices and may recommend modifications to them. The CPRB also
reviews reports prepared after investigation of complaints about alleged police misconduct and
then issues its own written report. The Board is also required to maintain a central registry of
complaints and holds at least one community forum each year for the purpose of hearing
community views on the policies, practices and procedures of the Iowa City Police Department.

Communications Office
The Communications Office serves as the central point of contact for internal and external
communications at the City. The communications team coordinates media coverage,
informational efforts and promotional campaigns, maintains the City website and intranet,
manages social media, and works closely with Cable staff to create and share video content for
television, online and social media. The team coordinates with City staff to share and advise on
policies and procedures, publicizes city and community events, actively participates in local
events to engage with the public and provide information about the City while also supporting
customer service functions throughout the organization. The Communications Office also
provides creative services, as well as direction and support, to other City departments, and
staffs the front lobby information desk, which serves as the customer service hub of City Hall.
Cable N Administration
Cable TV Administration oversees Cable office operations, monitors cable franchise agreement
compliance, provides a complaint resolution service for subscribers to the local cable company,
monitors the public access service contract compliance, and supports other local cable
television programming channels. Administration also serves as staff for the Iowa City
Telecommunications Commission (ICTC) and conducts special projects such as research or
community surveys. Administration monitors changes in Federal and State laws and regulations
and relevant legal decisions related to cable television.
Cable staff produces local government and community video programming including public
meetings and presentations, regularly featuring the Iowa City City Council and the Iowa City
Foreign Relations Council; balanced political programming such as League of Women Voters
and other NGO forums; informational programming such as City departmental and community
organizational profiles, services, projects, or activities, including a wide variety of local musical
performances; as well as providing weekly and monthly news features that provide information
about Iowa City events and initiatives.
The Cable Office also schedules programming on City Channel 4, operates InfoVision channel
5, an interactive service providing local video programming on demand, and manages Channel
4's web presence, which includes live and archived streaming video.
Cable N Reserves
Cable TV's annual budget includes transfers to an equipment replacement reserve that are
used to purchase equipment and supplies, including computer hardware and software.
138
HIGHLIGHTS
The Cable TV office merged into the Communications Office two years ago, which has allowed
the Communications Office to have primary oversight of City -produced news, streamlining our
news coordination efforts and reducing overlap and expenses. Cable TV operations were
previously accounted for in an Enterprise Fund but were transferred to the General Fund in
Fiscal Year 2016.
Recent Accomplishments:
• Expanded Laserfiche capabilities throughout the City continue to improve public access
to required documents.
• Working closely with Public Works staff to share information regarding large public
projects, attending regular meetings and providing project updates for public awareness.
Some of these projects included the First Avenue Grade Separation Project, the
Washington Street revitalization in Downtown Iowa City, and the Gateway Project on
Dubuque Street in north Iowa City.
• Our website was launched successfully in 2015 and continues to be evaluated for
customer service and accessibility improvements.
• Implementation of a new employee e -newsletter has been well-received, helps inform
and engage staff, and continues to grow interest.
• Expanded social media platforms provide significant public engagement and analytics.
• Expanded e -subscription list to distribute City news and information to residents
• Conversion of static online pdf forms to web forms has created improved public access,
most notably in documents for the Building Inspections Division and Human Rights.
• Creation of online surveys and applications, and utilization of Eventbrite software for City
departments has improved customer service access by allowing payments for the
purchase of single items, such as Human Rights Annual Awards Banquet Breakfast
tickets; and improved registration and payment processes for Human Rights trainings
and events.
• Successful hiring and training of two key staff members who bring a great deal of
experience and new perspective to our office: a Digital Communications Specialist and a
Special Projects Assistant in our Cable Office.
• The Cable TV staff has increased its contributions to the City's social media outreach
efforts, recognizing video as an effective format for communicating to the public about
City activities and events, including updates on major improvement projects taking place.
The weekly Iowa City Update series continues to provide timely promotion of important
messages, typically featuring 3-4 short, informational stories per episode. These stories
can then be edited and redistributed via social media as part of a multi -format
communications strategy.
• Started a Multimedia Internship program wherein students pursuing a career in
journalism and television news work with Cable TV staff to produce weekly stories that
promote and highlight City and community events and activities.
139
• Began using Facebook Live as a new platform for presenting information and
highlighting and providing an on -the -scene peek into local events.
• Completed a short video in collaboration with Human Resources to inform the public of
the many ways available to learn of job postings as well as how to apply for City jobs.
• Began migrating most of City Channel 4's program archives and new programs to
YouTube for higher quality viewing and easier integration into the City's website. Videos
continue to be viewable from the City Channel 4 website, but now through a YouTube
player, which is more widely used by and familiar to the general public.
Upcoming Challenges
• Intranet redesign
• Reorganizing content on the website
• Updating of online forms to convert them from static pdf's to web forms for improved
accessibility
• Organizing and adding to our photograph library.
• Working with ITS to replace custom -created, in-house applications with software already
on hand (web forms, for example) or using turn -key replacements
• As the City grows, so does the number of messages needed to keep residents well-
informed. One challenge is to identify more ways to communicate through multimedia
outlets that can be utilized at increased levels of efficiency while continuing to create
engaging content that is easily received or accessed and understood by the public.

unlawful discrimination and enforces the anti -discrimination laws for the City (Human Rights
Ordinance). The Office also provides trainings and presentations on illegal discrimination to the
community and organizations on areas and characteristics covered under the Human Rights
Ordinance. The Office collaborates with community groups in the planning and coordinating of
events to educate the public on civil rights. For outreach and education the office prepares
specialized materials including pamphlets, brochures and advertisements on unlawful
discrimination. Staff of the office create yearly specialized reports and publish the annual report
of the Human Rights Commission. Both staff persons are licensed attorneys and attend
continuing legal education courses throughout the year to remain knowledgeable on relevant
laws concerning civil rights.
The equity branch of the office leads, manages and coordinates efforts to eliminate racial
inequities within the City government. Staff works closely with other City departments to eliminate
structural racism and other barriers that create racial disparities in City programs and services with
the end purpose of improving outcomes for all. To further accomplish these goals the office
partners and collaborates with community organizations to measure racial equity and inclusion
within City operations. Other responsibilities include publishing an annual report on racial equity
for the City, serving as liaison for the City Manager's Roundtables, updating the quarterly diversity

Finance Administration provides direction and administrative support to departmental operating
divisions. It supervises the preparation and dissemination of financial data for use by City
Council and staff in making managerial decisions and coordinates the annual budget process.
The division's budget is organized into four activities: Administration, Disaster Assistance, Tort
Liability, and Non -Operational Administration.
Administration
Administration monitors financial trends and provides analysis of budget to actual data and
three-year financial projections. Staff provides oversight of long and short-term investment
portfolios, cash flows and reserves, and oversees the preparation of general liability, fire &
casualty, and workers compensation insurance specifications. Administration coordinates
annual health and dental insurance renewals.
Administration prepares the annual budget, three year financial plan, and five year capital
improvement program and subsequent amendments thereof.
Disaster Assistance
This activity accounts for Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) reimbursements for
repairs to public facilities damaged in the June 2008 floods. Revenue includes State of Iowa
matching funds. In addition to public facility repairs, reimbursements are also provided for some
flood recovery services. Also, this activity accounts for expenses incurred from the June 2008
flood for which the City does not expect reimbursement.
Tort Liability
Chapter 384.12 of the Iowa State Code provides municipalities within the state of Iowa the legal
authority with which to levy "a tax to pay the premium costs on tort liability insurance, property
insurance, and any other insurance that may be necessary in the operation of the city, the costs
of a self-insurance program, the costs of a local government risk pool and amounts payable
under any self-insurance program, or local government risk pool."
The Tort Liability cost center accounts for General Fund's contribution to the Risk Management
Loss Reserve; general liability, fire and casualty and workers compensation premium costs.
The account is administered by the Finance Department's Revenue and Risk Manager.
Non -Operational Administration
The Non -Operational Administration cost center facilities financial transactions which are non-
operational in nature.
Employee Benefits Levy: State code requires that a separate fund be established to account for
revenue from the Employee Benefits Levy. Monies are then transferred into Non -Op Admin to
cover General Fund's share of Employee Benefit costs levied.
153
Utility Franchise Tax: A one percent (1 %) utility franchise tax is levied by the City on gas and
electric bills. These funds are used for a variety of purposes as determined by the City Council.
Community Event and Program Funding: The City's Community Events and Programming

events. This funding was moved to the City Manager's budget in fiscal year 2018.

Strategic Plan Goal: Maintain a Solid Financial Foundation
Department Goal: The City of Iowa City's investment objectives are safety, liquidity
and yield. The primary objective of the City of Iowa City's
investment activities is the preservation of capital and the
protection of investment principal.
Department Objective: In investing public funds, the City's cash management portfolio is
designed with the objective of regularly exceeding the average
return on the six month U.S. Treasury Bill. The Treasury Bill is
considered a benchmark for riskless investment transactions and
therefore comprises a minimum standard for the portfolio's rate of
return.

HIGHLIGHTS
Recent Accomplishments:
• The Department expanded the
temporary part time Community
Outreach Assistant position into a
full time position. This position
assists Police Officers assigned to
Community Policing positions as
well as works independently to
increase outreach and relationship
building between the Police
Department and Community.
• National Night Out was again a
success gearing to strengthen
neighborhood spirit and police -
community partnerships. Events
held on the west and south sides of
town were well attended and
received positive media attention.
Staffing:
Upcoming Challenges:
• COPS grant funding for two Officers
will expire in November 2016. The
City is responsible to maintain these
positions for another year. Based
upon the number and calls for
service and wanting to provide the
best possible service to the
Community, the Department would
like to retain current staffing levels
beyond the City's one year
obligation.
• Attracting, hiring and retaining
quality school crossing guards has
been a challenge in recent years.
This is due in part to the City not
offering a competitive wage.
Staffing Level Change Summary:
There are no staffing level changes in the fiscal year 2018 budget.
Service Level Change Summary:
There are no service level changes in the fiscal year 2018 budget.

GOALS, OBJECTIVES, and PERFORMANCE MEASURES
Strategic Plan Goal: Enhance Community Engagement and Intergovernmental
Relations, Foster Healthy Neighborhoods throughout the City &
Advance Social Justice and Racial Equity
Department Goal: Enhance community relations and promote minority recruitment.
By continuing to participate in Badges for Baseball, the Youth
Citizen Police Academy, Police Cadet program and other
programs and events for both adults and youth, the Department
hopes the minority community will have a better understanding of a
police officer's job.
Department Objective: Develop programs designed to promote interaction between
community members and officers. In this non -adversarial
environment officers and minority community members will be able
to interact and open up lines of communication. A better
understanding of the job will also enhance recruitment of minority
citizens.

Strategic Plan Goal: Enhance Community Engagement and Intergovernmental
Relations & Foster Healthy Neighborhoods throughout the City
Department Goal: Increase the efficiency in which lost pets and owners are reunited.
Department Objective: Increase the number of pets that are licensed and/or implanted
with a microchip. Pets with microchips and/or licensed are more
easily identified and returned to their owners. This decreased time
reduces the stress on both the pet and owner. This also increases
the amount of time that officers can spend patrolling and
addressing nuisance animals, which can affect the quality of life in
a neighborhood. Outsourcing licensing will be evaluated, as other
jurisdictions have found that privatization has increased
community participation.

The Police Department's Field Operations Division is organized into two activities, Patrol and
Investigations. The division is commanded by a Captain.
• Patrol: The Patrol section is the largest section in the department and is responsible for
handling calls for service from the public in addition to handling special assignments and
self -initiated activities. Officers are responsible for the protection of life and property, and
help maintain peace, order, and safety for all. The patrol section is divided in to three
watches (shifts) providing 24-hour service. Each watch is under the supervision of a
Lieutenant and two Sergeants. In addition to the traditional patrol units, the patrol section
also has two canine units, bicycle officers, a Neighborhood Resource Officer, a
Downtown Business District Officer, a Crime Prevention Officer, Community Service
Officers, a Special Response Team (SRT), a Crisis Negotiation Team (CNT) and
provides Crime Scene Technicians (CST) for the processing of crime scenes and
Technical Accident Investigators (TI) to investigate vehicle crashes..
Investigations: The Investigations section is responsible for the investigation of criminal
activity beyond that which is conducted by the patrol section. The Investigations section
is headed by a Lieutenant and a Sergeant. The Investigations section has investigators
assigned to the Johnson County Drug Task Force, Domestic Abuse, and a Street
Crimes Unit, in addition to general crime investigators.
• Forfeitures: Criminal forfeiture is an action brought as a part of the criminal prosecution
of a defendant and requires that the government indict (charge) the property used or
derived from the crime along with the defendant. The money or items that are forfeited
can only be used by law enforcement for law enforcement equipment or law
enforcement related activities. The money or items cannot be used to supplant a budget
or budgeted item. Forfeiture is governed by State of Iowa Code chapter 1133 in addition
to federal guidelines.

The Fire Administration division is under the direction of the fire chief. The fire chief is
responsible for all department activities as set out by federal and state laws, and City of Iowa
City ordinances. The deputy fire chief is the second in command and is responsible for
homeland security initiatives, fire service accreditation, the maintenance and purchase of
computer hardware and software, and other special projects. The battalion chief assigned to
the Administration division is responsible for maintenance of buildings and grounds, calendar
administration, the health & safety and fitness committees, uniform procurement, annual
physicals and immunizations. Fire administration also manages the weather alert sirens and
the City of Iowa City Command Post budget.
The Iowa City Fire Department strives to accomplish the goals and objectives that flow from the
City of Iowa City Strategic Plan and the Iowa City Fire Department Strategic Plan. Both are
community driven documents. The Iowa City Fire Department was accredited by the
Commission on Fire Accreditation International (CFAI) in August of 2008. The department was
reaccredited in 2013 and will position itself for reaccreditation in 2018. The maintenance of fire
service accreditation requires a commitment to a model of continuous quality improvement.
The budget for Fire Administration governs the acquisition, maintenance, and empowerment of
all resources not otherwise associated with Emergency Operations, Fire Prevention, or Fire
Training. The budget includes oversight of fixed facilities as well as the furnishings and
resources that enable emergency operations personnel to be fit and ready to respond 24/7. The
majority of the Administration budget goes towards routine maintenance and upkeep of the fire
stations, the furnishings and equipment for not only routine business but also the equipment and
resources related to the Iowa City Fire Department wellness/fitness initiative.

The Fire Emergency Operations Division works a three -shift system. Each duty shift is 24 hours
in length and includes one Battalion Chief, one Captain, four Lieutenants, and 14 Firefighters.
Minimum staffing for the fire department is 16 emergency response personnel on duty at all
times, 24 hours a day. The division provides incident response to all types of emergencies.
Calls for service are divided into four categories: fire suppression, emergency medical services,
technical rescue, and hazardous materials response.
Fire Suppression: ICFD personnel respond to all types of fires. Firefighting activities do
require more resources (personnel, equipment, etc.) than other types of emergencies.
Fires have a greater potential to harm people and property. The department is
continually looking for ways to decrease response times and to reduce the number and
severity of fires.
• Emergency Medical Services: All ICFD personnel are minimally certified to the
Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) service level. The department does not transport
patients but does serve as EMS first responders. The Johnson County Ambulance
Service provides ALS care and transport service. Together we provide a tiered EMS
response system.
• Technical Rescue: Technical rescue incidents are those incidents that require highly
specialized knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to safely mitigate the event. The
ICFD provides the following technical rescue services: water and ice rescue, trench and
structural collapse rescue, vehicle and heavy machinery rescue, rope rescue, and
confined space rescue. The ICFD's Special Operations Response Team (SORT)
provides a core group of highly trained emergency response personnel that also provide
department training on the various rescue disciplines.
• Hazardous Materials Response: The department continues to be active in haz-mat
response and assumes a leadership role with the Johnson County Hazardous Materials
Response Team (JCHMRT). The JCHMRT includes 17 ICFD personnel and up to 30
total members who are trained and certified to the Hazmat Technician level.
:1[CIO ION 0111K
• Call volume for emergency service continues to increase in Iowa City. The ICFD is on
track to respond to over 7,000 calls for service in 2016. That number of calls would
represent an unprecedented one-year increase of 15%. Over a nine year period, call
volume grew from 3,684 in 2006, to 6,016 in 2015, a 63% increase. The department is
currently averaging just over 19 emergency calls for service per day.
• As of 10/03/2016, fire personnel have responded to 164 fire emergencies this year,
resulting in just over $600,000 in property damage. The pre -incident value of the
affected property is over $24.7 million, resulting in a total saved value of just over $24
million. The largest single fire loss as of this date was estimated at $170,000, for a fire
that occurred in a single family residence.
• The ICFD continues to experience an increase in the number of emergency calls for
service and in the number of simultaneous calls for service. In calendar year 2015,
191
26.8% of emergency incidents were overlapping; 22.7% in 2014; and 22.2% in 2013.
Overlapping calls for service negatively affect response reliability when a response
vehicle is already committed to another call. Response times to the emergency will be
longer because a more distant unit will have to respond.
Recent Accomplishments:
• Of the 56 building fires in 2015, 40
were confined to the room of origin; 5
were confined to the floor of origin;
and 11 were confined to the building of
origin.
• The department placed into service a
new special operations response
trailer to provide greater efficiencies at
technical rescue incidents.
• During the 2015 calendar year, 17% of
patients in cardiac arrest were
converted to a life supporting heart
rhythm.
• The department recently purchased an
updated command response vehicle to
provide the command and control at
building fires and other high risk
events.
Fra
Upcoming Challenges:
• Calls for service increased by 485
incidents between 2013 and 2015.
The department will likely respond to
over 7000 calls in 2016, an increase of
over 1000 incidents from 2015.
• Cooking fires continue to trend as the
city's leading cause of building fires.
• There is an increase in overlapping
calls for service from 22.7% in 2014 to
26.8% in 2015.
• Meeting established response time
goals given current staffing and
existing fire station locations. Growth
and development on the east,
southeast and west are impacting our
ability to respond quickly and within
community expectations.
• The department is experiencing a
significant increase in calls
categorized as "invalid assist." The
department will take a lead in bringing
together community stakeholders in
efforts to identify appropriate solutions
for those persons.
• The county's EMS patient transport
service is getting busier and we are on
occasion seeing extended arrival
times for an ambulance to arrive. The
fire department is exploring a service
enhancement to go from an EMT first
responder service to a provisional
paramedic service.
• Station design at fire station 1 is
inappropriate for personnel to turnout
within the prescribed benchmark goal.

The Fire Prevention Bureau (FPB) continues to serve the citizens of Iowa City through fire code
enforcement, plans review, fire origin and cause determination, and public education programs.
The Fire Prevention Bureau is staffed by a Battalion Chief assigned as Fire Marshal who reports
to the Deputy Fire Chief. The Fire Marshal is directly responsible for organizing all fire
prevention activities which include: fire/arson investigation, fire code enforcement, building plan
review, and fire and life safety education. A trained shift fire inspector conducts the inspections
of liquor license establishments, schools, daycares, churches, and all City buildings. Emergency
operations personnel conduct the fire safety inspections of all commercial and University of
Iowa buildings.
The Fire Marshal oversees the regular inspection of all businesses, churches, daycares,
schools, and university buildings. Educational opportunities are present with each inspection.
FD personnel use the opportunity to increase fire safety awareness by explaining fire code
violations and associated hazards. Response personnel will also use the time to familiarize
themselves with a building and its interior. All personnel cherish the opportunity presented
through fire code enforcement to grow community relationships.
The wide range of activities provided by fire and life -safety educators include daycare/preschool
and K-12 school presentations, Kids Safety House visits, Safety Village training sessions, UI
Resident Assistant Fire Academy training, senior safety tips for older adults, and crowd
manager training for employees of assembly occupancies. Building on a long partnership with
SAFE KIDS Johnson County, the department has trained child safety seat technicians and has
designated Station 4 as a child safety seat "FIT Station." The department piloted a new program
in 2016 called "Fired Up About Reading" which focuses on getting at -risk elementary students to
read outside of school. The program also gives fire personnel the opportunity to interact with at -
risk youth in a very positive way. A rekindled partnership with the American Red Cross has
benefitted the citizens of Iowa City through disaster/fire recovery assistance as well as life
safety programs that target specific neighborhoods to supply and install working smoke alarms.
The investigation of fire cause is an integral part of fire prevention. All reported fires are
investigated by a company officer and/or a member of the Fire Investigation Team (FIT) to
determine the origin and cause of the fire. Fire investigation team members receive specialized
training and are required to complete continuing education courses to remain current.
HIGHLIGHTS
• As of October 13, 2016, the FPB has conducted 1,999 fire and life -safety inspections
• As of October 13, 2016, the FPB investigated 165 fire incidents to determine the origin and
cause of the fire. As in years past, the kitchen remains the reported area of origin for a
majority of residential fires (50); unattended cooking accounts for the largest number of
these fires.
Recent Accomplishments:
• Fire Marshal Greer became Vice
President of the Iowa Fire
Marshal's Association.
• Fire Marshal Greer elected as
Director of Investigations in the
IAAI- Iowa Chapter.
• The ICFD partnered with the
Red Cross to install 220 smoke
alarms in the Lucas Farms
neighborhood. Two weeks later
a fire occurred in one of those
homes. The alarms activated,
alerting the occupant who then
escaped to safety.
• The Fired Up About Reading
program that was piloted in the
Fall of 2015-16 school year by
FF Farrey is now in demand at
several schools.
• The Compliance Engine (TCE)
became the new third party
repository for fire protection
equipment inspection reports.
Reporting to correct deficient
systems is managed by TCE.
6Iifii71 61
Upcoming Challenges:
• Identify methods to streamline
fire code inspections so as to not
detract from the work load of
emergency services and
firefighter training.
• Obtain training to achieve origin
and cause certification (FIT/CFI)
for Fire Marshal.
• Identify programs currently
available or find new ideas to
provide fire and life -safety
education to at -risk
neighborhoods and schools.
• Develop a long-term plan
regarding staffing of the fire
prevention bureau to handle an
increased work load along with
succession planning for the fire
marshal position.
• Explore other opportunities for
public/private partnerships to
provide life safety programs.
• Reduce the incidence of false
alarms which grew by 7.7% in
2015.

Special Populations Involvement
Special Populations Involvement (SPI) programs provide year-round recreation for persons with
special needs of all ages and ability levels. A principal goal for the programs is to enhance
independent leisure skills and lifestyles of persons with various disabilities. The SPI program
offers year-round Special Olympics sports training and competition. SPI programs promote skill
development and offer educational activities, while maintaining the recreational values. The SPI
programs are offered year-round through four and eight week programming sessions. Each
session includes programs and activities in the following recreation areas: sports and fitness,
arts, music and movement, independent living skills, special events, clubs, and social activities.
Youth Sports
Youth sports and wellness programs offered by the Iowa City Recreation Division are diverse
and well -attended by community residents. Year-round programs are established for all ages.
Youth sports include flag football, basketball, volleyball, softball, baseball, tennis, skateboarding,
taekwondo, and a variety of special events such as the Hershey Track and Field Meet and
Youth Triathlon. The youth sports programs follow a basic philosophy that the child and
learning come first and competition second. Programs are designed to allow for instruction, full -
participation, and fun. The Recreation Division also works cooperatively with local sports
associations to provide program opportunities.
Tennis lessons for youth run approximately eight weeks in the summer (two four-week
sessions) at Mercer Park. In addition to our regular tennis program, the Iowa City Recreation
Division works closely with the United States Tennis Association (USTA) to provide classes,
tournaments, and special events.
Gymnastics instruction is offered year-round. Parent Tot Tumbling (2-3 year olds) and Tiny
Tumblers (3-5 year olds) meet twice weekly during the school year. Saturday classes (2-8 year
olds) are offered for five-week sessions, meeting one time per week throughout the year.
Teen programming provides various after-school activities and special events for teens to
participate in including intramural basketball and game room tournaments. The Scanlon
Gymnasium's main focus is to provide a safe environment for teens.
Adult Sports
Adult sports programs include men's, women's and co -recreational basketball, volleyball, and
softball leagues. Over 100 teams participate in our summer softball leagues and 40 in the fall
league. Up to 100 teams are involved in volleyball and 50 teams in basketball. Competitive and
recreational fall, winter, and spring leagues are established to meet participants' interests.

The Iowa City Public Library is the busiest public library building in the state of Iowa. Community
surveys conducted in 2014 as part of the Library's strategic planning process showed 94.3% of
respondents said the Iowa City Public Library was either essential or very important to the quality
of life in the community, the highest rating the planning consultants had ever seen. The Library
Operations budget is organized into General Library, Library Materials, Board Controlled Funds,
Gifts & Bequests, and Gifts — Materials, and Library Replacement Reserves.
General Library
This activity accounts for the bulk of the Library's budget, accounting for Library staffing, programs,
public services, building repair & maintenance, and activities associated with the Library's
commercial space. This budget also includes transfers to computer and equipment replacement
reserves.

are organized into Children's Materials and Adult Materials. An increasing number of materials
acquisitions in recent years are in electronic or downloadable formats.

Enrich Iowa grants. 0.50 FTE are budgeted within reciprocal borrowing.
Gifts & Bequests
This activity includes contributions and donations, both designated and undesignated, for Library
operations, programs, and building improvements.
Gifts — Materials
These are donated funds designated for materials acquisitions.

The Iowa City/Johnson County Senior Center (The Center) celebrated its 35`h anniversary in
2016. Since opening in 1981, The Center has been true to its mission: to promote optimal
aging by creating opportunities to support wellness, social connections, community
engagement, and lifelong learning among adults over 50 years and other community members.
Over the years, The Center's programs and services have changed, but the goal has remained
consistent; to remove negative stigmas associated with growing older, and to promote health,
well-being, and independence. We want to help adults stay active, curious, and connected so
that growing older is a positive experience
The Center offers a variety of classes, activities, volunteer opportunities, and services. In
addition to the fact that programs and services like theses meet the needs and interests of
participants and community members, they are known to support and extend a person's health,
wellbeing, and independence by fostering social connections, promoting mental and physical
exercise, and encouraging community involvement. The Center cannot turn anyone into a
genius, overcome the devastating effects of Alzheimer's, or make someone's diabetes go away;
but it can provide programs and services that will help a person challenge popular ageist
stereotypes and make the most of their individual potential.
The Center does not just serve people over 50 years of age. Many programs are
intergenerational, community events are common, and college age volunteers are often seen
around The Center. In addition, The Center hosts practicum students and interns from a variety
of academic departments at the University, including but not limited to Social Work, Public
Health, and Recreational Studies.
Senior Center Administration
Administration oversees and supports the operation of Center programs, building maintenance,
and development. Administration also supports the activities of the Senior Center Commission,
and Senior Center Steering Council and Working Committees.
Services provided at the Center are also supported by Administration. These programs require
varying degrees of staff oversight, organization, volunteer training, scheduling, and problem
solving. Most are open to all members of the community. All require a designated space in
which they can be carried out. Examples include: Senior Health Insurance Counseling (SHIIP);
Volunteer Lawyers; University of Iowa Counseling Services; The AARP Tax Aide Program;
Honoring Your Wishes advanced directives counseling; health care provided by the Visiting
Nurses Association, and congregate dining provided by Elder Services, Inc. These programs
extend The Center's reach out into the community bringing in people of all ages, from all walks
of life.

Senior Center Programs (1000)
There are four budget subdivisions in the Programs activity:
• Senior Center Classes - Classes cover everything from literature and fitness, music, and
art education. They are often open to non-members or intergenerational. A volunteer
based Program Committee is active in determining the quarterly curriculum. Classes are
taught by volunteers or independent contractors
• Senior Center Chorus - This part of the budget includes the Voices of Experience (VOE),
a chorus for adults over 50, and the Family Folk Machine (FFM), an intergenerational
chorus. The VOE has a student director identified through a cooperative agreement with
the College of Music Education at the University of Iowa. The VOE director and
accompanist are both part-time temporary employees of the City. The FFM is directed
by volunteers. Participants of both choruses pay participation fees.
• Senior Center Special Events - Large programs of general interest that are open to all
members of the community. For instance, dances, fundraisers band concerts, choral
presentations, movies, or speakers. They often have sponsors and community
partners and involve many volunteers.
• Senior Center Television - Volunteers produce television programs for broadcast on
City Cable and Public Access channels. A part time temporary video specialist
provides instruction and training. SCTV brings programs that take place at The Center
to television for homebound elderly and community members to see. They also are
involved with creative endeavors and have a channel on you -tube to increase outreach.
Gifts & Memorials (1003)
This activity accounts for contributions and donations made to the Senior Center Gift Fund. Staff
has been asked by the Senior Center Commission to use the funding in this account to purchase
necessary equipment and upgrades until all funding has been spent. In the future, all donations
will be directed to the operational budget or Friends of The Center in accordance with donor
wishes.
HIGHLIGHTS
• At the end of FY2016 there were 1,618 members of The Center. 10% of members take
advantage of the low-income scholarship program. Membership is not required to
participate in many classes, services, and events offered at The Center.
• Volunteer support is a critical component of The Centers successful operation. In
FY2016, The Center benefited from the services of 592 community volunteers who
donated a total of 25,500 hours of service to support Center operations. This is the
equivalent of 12.25 FTEs.
• Community service is a significant component of The Center's operation. In FY2016 the
Visiting Nurses Association hosted 660 visits at The Center and Elder Services, Inc.
served 6,894 meals. The Center organized AARP tax aide services for 482 community
members; the Senior Health Insurance Information Program (SHIIP) provided 819
consultations to answer Medicare questions, and 10 Welcome to Medicare programs
attended by 231 people; Honoring Your Wishes, a community -wide advanced care
OZ, 9]
planning initiative held 101 facilitated conversations and 7 workshops; and finally, 80
people received free legal counseling.
• After many months of planning and preparation in January of 2016 a newly formatted
version of the Program Guide was released. Major changes in formatting and a change
from a four to a three times a year publication have been very well received by members
and participants.
• The Center received a contribution of $34,877 from the Friends of The Center's Senior
Center Endowment in FY2016 to support operational expenses.
• The FY2016 cost recovery remains at approximately 28% in FY2016. As new
fundraising practices fall into place and are implemented, this should begin to increase.
• Insofar as programming is concerned, The Center's classes, choruses, Senior Center
Television, and Special events were close to self-sustaining in FY2016 with only a
$2,139 deficit in revenue. As fundraising practices improve, the revenue and expenses
for these accounts should balance out.
• To reduce program expenses, avoid duplication of services, and offer the highest quality
programs the Center partnered with 102 Community organizations in FY2016.
• Obtained City Council Approval for a 0.5 FTE Development Specialist in the FY2016
budget process.
• Worked closely with Friends of The Center throughout the year to reorganize the Board
and its overall operation to create a more effective organization. This included
everything from selecting donor software and website development to attempting to hire
a Development Specialist.
• In January of 2016, The Center began celebrating its 35`h Anniversary with a series of
successful community programs. One of the most popular celebrations was a concert at
the Englert featuring the Family Folk Machine and Voices of Experience, The Centers
intergenerational and adult choirs respectively. Singers age 4 to 86 sang classics like If I
had a Hammer, Big Rock Candy Mountain, and Midnight Special. Nearly 350
community members attended. The University of Iowa Community Credit Union helped
support this event.
• In FY2016, The Center hosted a total of 121,672 visits (duplicated) to the facility.
Approximately one hundred and twelve thousand (112,232—duplicated) of these visits
were to Center sponsored programs and services.
Recent Accomplishments:
• In late spring of 2016 The Center was awarded a $9000 grant from the Iowa Arts Council
to implement a program called: Wasn't That a Time? A community recollection and
songwriting project. The project involves local artists the Awful Purdies, The Center's
Family Folk Machine, and community members. It will culminate in a joint Family Folk
Machine/Awful Purdies concert featuring some of the new songs at the Iowa Festival of
the Arts in June of 2017. This project is also being supported by the University of Iowa
Community Credit Union, and in-kind contributions.
• A successful anniversary event, sponsored by Friends of The Center, was a visit by
Ashton Applewhite, author of This Chair Rocks: A Manifesto Against Ageism. During her
visit Applewhite led an intergenerational book discussion group, did a public presentation
241
at The Center, and a book reading at Prairie lights. Approximately 300 community
members participated in her visit.
• Following a marketing and fundraising plan as closely as possible numerous changes
were made to promote awareness of and involvement in The Center. Postcards sent to
new members, open houses, increased community programing, new member
breakfasts, targeted advertising, and other changes resulted in many successful
programs and a $25,000 increase in donations to Friends over the previous fiscal year.
• On July 1, 2016 successfully implemented fee increases recommended by Committee A
and subsequently approved by the Senior Center Commission and by the City Council.
While the impact of these increases is difficult to measure at this time, participants were
well prepared for the changes and the transition went smoothly.
• With the help of participants, community members, and city employees, revised and
developed The Center's mission statement, vision, principles, values, and 5 -year goals.
The goals address 2017 -2022 and are intended to provide operational direction during
that time period. The goals were developed in concert with City Council goals and will
be reviewed and modified as needed throughout the five year period.
• We entered a 9 month rental agreement for use of the Assembly Room on a weekly
basis that will generate over $9,000 in revenue.
Upcoming Challenges:
• Continue to diversify The Center's funding.
• Successfully hire a Development Specialist.
• Work with Friends to get the Board of Directors organized, operational, and staffed by
the Development Specialist. Complete development of the website and launch it at a
public celebration early in 2017. Establish corporate relationships and strengthen
private ones. Create annual strategic plan and establish fundraising goals.
• Effectively identify and train volunteers to SUCCESSFULLY engage them in fundraising.
• Develop a sponsorship plan and secure corporate sponsors for the Program Guide.
• Continue to expand knowledge base in fundraising area using local and national
resources.
• Motivate the Senior Center Commission to become more active advocates and
fundraisers.
• Secure national accreditation through the National Institute of Senior Centers, a unit of
the National Council on Aging, in 2017.
• Maintain the level and quality of programs and services currently offered.
• Continue with re -vamping second floor classrooms.
• Continue to pursue modifications to the Assembly Room, lobby, and kitchen that will
make the spaces more appealing to renters, create more storage space, and provide
additional instructional space and equipment.
• If it proves to be impractical to modify the Assembly Room, lobby, and kitchen for rental
purposes, pursue modest modifications to kitchen to create storage place, clear clutter,
and create an area that could be used for programming (i.e. cooking or baking classes),
and during larger events when food is served.

ADMINISTRATION
Administration
Neighborhood and Development Services (NDS) Administration is responsible for oversight and
support of the department's six operating divisions, Administration, Economic Development,
Development Services, Neighborhood Services, Metropolitan Planning of Johnson County
(MPOJC) and the Housing Authority.
Sustainability
Iowa City is committed to being a leader in sustainable community development. The
Sustainability Coordinator helps ensure that our public services and planning efforts are rooted
in sustainable principles. Efforts towards sustainability are also focused in municipal energy
savings, community -wide greenhouse gas emissions, natural area management and
collaborating with other city departments on other topics pertaining to sustainability. Current
projects include tracking streetlight conversion to LED lighting, prioritizing energy conservation
projects for municipal facilities and updating the community greenhouse gas emissions
reporting. Communication of the City's sustainability efforts through electronic media (e -
newsletter, Facebook and Twitter), and aligning along with tracking sustainability efforts with the
STAR Sustainability Rating System are also projects that involve the Sustainability office.
Energy Efficiency Revolving Fund
The fund was created from the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant special revenue
fund. The fund is used as an energy efficiency reimbursement program. The facilities that
receive improvements through the fund repay the fund annually based on the savings from the
energy efficiency improvements.

The Neighborhood Services Division is responsible for the administration of various
housing services, housing programs and revitalization efforts that focus on sustaining
healthy neighborhoods. The division provides housing inspection services, facilitates
communication and outreach services to neighborhood associations and coordinates
Iowa City's public art and PIN Grant programs. Iowa City's federal Community Block
Grant (CDBG) and HOME programs are also administered through the Neighborhood
Services Division.
Community Development
Community Development staff are committed to providing Iowa City residents with
access to safe and affordable housing, jobs and services. This is accomplished by
coordinating efforts with local organizations, businesses and other community partners,
and by administering and coordinating activities relating to city, state, and federal
housing and community and economic development programs.
Economic development activities include:
• Neighborhood redevelopment
• Entrepreneurial and microenterprise business development
• Working with financial institutions
The Housing Rehabilitation program works to help residents maintain and update their
homes by providing financial assistance to income eligible homeowners. The availability
of affordable, low or no -interest loans provides lower income homeowners the
opportunity to make repairs and improve energy efficiency to their homes and ultimately
helps to maintain Iowa City's housing stock. Funding is available through the federally -
funded Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment
Partnership programs, and through the General Rehabilitation and Improvement
Program (GRIP), which is funded by general obligation bonds. CDBG and HOME
descriptions can be found in the Special Revenue Fund section of this budget.
Housing Inspection
Housing Inspection's mission is to ensure that Iowa City's housing facilities are of the
quality necessary to protect and promote the health, safety, and welfare of those
persons utilizing these facilities and the general public. The division strives to achieve
these goals and contribute to the overall mission of the City by:
• The inspection of all rental properties located in the City on a two year cycle.
• The inspection of all housing related to the Housing Authority's Housing Choice
Voucher Program.
• Investigating and resolving housing and nuisance complaints for all properties.
QYA
The City of Iowa City began the rental housing inspection division in the mid 1970's. The
division has four full-time inspectors, inspecting more than 18,000 rental units bi-
annually. Housing Inspection works with owners, property managers and tenants to
ensure conformance with the Iowa City Housing Code, which establishes minimum
health and safety standards necessary to protect and promote the welfare of tenants and
the general public as well. Housing Inspection achieves this purpose by inspecting all
rental property on a systematic basis. Currently, multi -family structures (e.g. those
buildings with three or more units), single family, and duplex structures are inspected
every two years. Fraternities and sororities are inspected annually. Complaint inspection
may be made upon request. In an effort to promote healthier neighborhoods, staff has
shifted to more pro -active inspections in our core neighborhoods to address nuisance
trash and litter violations.
Human Services
Community Development staff coordinates with the United Way of Johnson County and
the Housing and Community Development Commission in providing funds for human
service agencies. The City Council makes annual allocations to the area's human
service agencies as part of the Aid to Agencies budget process.
Neighborhood Outreach
Neighborhood Outreach provides a conduit between all City departments and the
network of neighborhood associations within Iowa City, and facilitates the distribution of
funds made available by the City Council for small-scale neighborhood improvements.
Neighborhood Outreach supports and encourages citizens to help shape the future of
their neighborhood. By assisting in the establishment and coordination of 33
neighborhood associations, this division seeks to encourage action by providing ideas
and resources that help associations address their needs and interests within the goals
of the larger community.
The City Council has made funds available to neighborhood associations through the
Program for Improving Neighborhoods (PIN) grant program, with $15,000 available
annually. Administration of this program involves making applications available to the
neighborhoods, clarifying the administrative rules, assisting with project development,
coordinating staff review of the applications as well as execution of contract documents
and implementation of projects.
HIGHLIGHTS
• Maintained a two-year inspection cycle for all rental properties
• A net gain of 30 new rental permits adding 337 units to the rental permit roles
• Fifty-nine properties have been acquired since 2011 for the UniverCity Neighborhood
Partnership Program. Fifty-five of these have been completed and sold as owner
Q&
occupied properties. There is one accepted offer and closing date pending. Three
homes are underway or are complete but not yet sold. The City has entered
purchase agreements for two additional homes and plans to acquire one more in
FY2017.
The Program for Improving Neighborhoods (PIN) funded several neighborhood
initiatives, including Grant Wood/Wetherby neighborhood's providing extra police
back fill funding in order to enable other officers, interested in community outreach,
to work in their neighborhood. They also received funding to kick off the South
District logo design by providing window clings and stickers to neighbors as well as
area businesses. Longfellow was approved to replace an existing, deteriorated split
rail fence at the Longfellow Trail and several neighborhoods will be able to send out
one newsletter in FY2017 to introduce their association to new neighbors and
encourage that they subscribe to social media options such as Nextdoor or
Facebook for ongoing information throughout the year. Several neighborhoods also
received funding to create durable signage promoting their Nextdoor or Facebook
pages. Various neighborhoods were able to host a Eulenspiegel puppet
performance in their neighborhood parks this past summer as a result of a PIN grant.
And Lucas Farms will be able to create and install several historic markers
throughout the neighborhood highlighting key historic points of interest.
• The Neighborhood Outreach division also oversees the Iowa City Public Art program
with funding made available for the maintenance of the existing public art inventory
as well as funding smaller projects. In FY2016, there were seven art projects funded
through the matching fund program for almost $8,000. Maximum funding available is
$2,000 per project. Requests ranged from $300 — 2,000. Project and
individuals/organizations that received matching funds are:
• Community Book Making Project — Yesha Tsomo
• Space Jam — Breanne Trammell
• The Iowa Disability Creative Works Gallery — Tom Walz
• Open Washington Ribbon Project— Iowa City Downtown District
• Mind Travelers' Aquarium — Sayuri Sasaki Hemann
• The Center for Afrofuturistic Studies: 2016 "Beyond Realism" speaker

• Project Playground: Peardeck.
• The Poetry in Public Program, in its 12th year, showcased 55 poems written by
Johnson County adults and students.

Upcoming Challenges:
• The principal challenge is staff time and
resources. Significant time in research
and code development will need to be
devoted to initiatives such as the
Affordable Housing Action Plan, the STAR
program, increasing use of Form Based
Codes, etc. These initiatives, while
maintaining levels of service for the
primary duties of reviewing and preparing
reports on development applications,
zoning and building enforcement,
addressing public concerns and
complaints, reviewing historic preservation
applications, the design review process,
and reviewing and inspecting projects
through the building permit process will be
a challenge.
• Continue to implement the Riverfront
Crossings Plan through review of
development projects, administering
rezoning applications, and CIP projects.
• Staying current on International Building
Code amendments, local zoning code
amendments, and changes in federal
legislation which affect local codes and
ordinances.
• Update of technology to increase
efficiency and enhance customer service,
such as Increase electronic submittals of
plan documents for subdivision and
rezoning applications.
• Continuing to review administer historic
preservation -related building projects, and
support the evaluation of new historic
landmarks.
• Training and education for the upcoming
2017 National Electrical Code.
• Adopt, implement and train staff on the
2015 International Energy Conservation
Code in coordination with the State of
Iowa
Staffing:
Staffing Level Change Summary:
In Urban Planning, the Historic Preservation Planner is being reclassified from an hourly employee,
up to 20 hours per week, to a permanent half time (.50 FTE) position.
Service Level Change Summary:
A historic property grant program to provide grants and/or low interest loans to owners of historic
properties to support exterior structural improvements such as porch rehabilitation, removal of
synthetic siding, additions, etc. (maintenance projects would not be eligible) has been added for
fiscal year 2018. It is anticipated we would offer grants for up to 50% of project costs (maximum
$5,000) for eligible projects for owner -occupied historic properties, and would offer loans for rental
historic properties. Program details would be determined with the Historic Preservation
Commission. This program would support strategic plan goals of encouraging a walkable and
vibrant urban core, and fostering healthy neighborhoods.
Financial Highlights:
In the Building Inspection activity, Construction Permit & Inspection fees are budgeted to increase
by 21.30% or $158,725 in fiscal year 2018 due to the anticipated level of construction activity.
The Building Inspection service expenditures are budgeted to decrease by 32.94% or $76,636
primarily due to estimated legal services in fiscal year 2017 of $90,000 for the Lusk property
lawsuits.
The Urban Planning activity fiscal year 2018 service expenditures budget includes $150,000 for
consulting related to form base code creation and $10,000 to digitize historical property records
and place them online. The fiscal year 2017 revised budget includes $175,000 for the form base
code development and parking study. The Urban Planning activity fiscal year 2018 service
expenditure budget also includes $40,000 for a historical property grant program. Overall, the
service expenditures budget in Urban Planning is up 6.49% or $14,046.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) FUND
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds are provided to the City of Iowa
City on an annual basis from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
(HUD). CDBG funds are used throughout the community to address the needs of lower
income citizens. CDBG funds may be used for a variety of activities (e.g. public services,
public facilities, housing, economic development, fair housing, and job training). Iowa
City is an entitlement city (over 50,000 in population), and receives an annual allocation
from HUD based on a formula that looks at information such as poverty rates, age of
housing stock, etc. Congress approves the program budgets annually so the City's
allocation may change from year to year.
The CDBG fund has a budgeted ending fund balance of $554,515 in fiscal year 2018
versus an estimated ending fund balance of $430,170 in fiscal year 2017. This is an
increase of 28.9%. The increase is related to the repayment of CDBG loans.
Revenues:
82% of revenue comes from Federal grants, with most of the remainder from loan
repayments. This revenue source has decreased from $844,028 in fiscal year 2017 to
an estimated $568,500 in fiscal year 2018, a decrease of 32.6%. This is primarily due to
carry forward of CDBG funds from prior years in fiscal year 2017.

Expenditures:
Fiscal year 2018 expenditures represent a 64.4% decline from fiscal year 2017. This
reduction is primarily due a carryover of funds from prior years in fiscal year 2017, and
due to the reallocation of grants and loans that were repaid in fiscal year 2017.

The mission of Community Development Block Grant operations is to develop viable urban
communities by providing decent housing, a suitable living environment, and economic
opportunities, principally for persons of low and moderate income.
As part of Neighborhood Services, the Community Development office is responsible for
administering and coordinating activities relating to federal, state, and local community
development programs. This includes Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) programs.
CDBG funds are used to acquire property, construct new buildings, rehabilitate existing
buildings and owner -occupied homes, operate service agencies, and encourage micro -
enterprise development. Community Development staff coordinate with local service agencies,
small businesses, and lenders in the administration of these programs.
The City created a citizen advisory group, the Housing and Community Development
Commission (HCDC), in 1995 to assess Iowa City's community development needs for housing,
jobs and services for low and moderate income residents, and to promote public and private
efforts to meet such needs. HCDC leads the CDBG/HOME allocation process to determine what
projects will be awarded funds based on priorities established in CITY STEPS, Iowa City's
Consolidated Plan for Housing, Jobs and Services for Low -Income Residents.
HIGHLIGHTS
• Over $20.8 million in CDBG funds have been invested in Iowa City since 1990
• In FY2016, programs leveraged $1.14 million in private and public funds
• Assisted 1,027 persons who are homeless with support services and provided
operational funding to local non -profits that assisted 1,591 persons
• Rehabilitated 17 owner -occupied homes and provided down payment assistance to two
homes
• Acquired one three bedroom home for affordable rental housing for persons with
disabilities
• Assisted in the expansion of a micro -enterprise business
• Completed three fagade improvements in the City -University Urban Renewal Area.
• Installed playground equipment at Highland Park
FY2017 projects are identified in the FY2017 Annual Action Plan at wvvw.icgov.org/actionplan.
The CDBG allocation process, including the public input process can be found in the City's
Citizen Participation Plan.

Staffing Level Change Summary:
There are no staff changes in the fiscal year 2018 budget. The CDBG operations will be
charged by the actual time worked on these programs by staff.
Service Level Change Summary:
There are no service level changes in the fiscal year 2018 budget.
Financial Highlights:
Other Miscellaneous Revenue decreased by $678,014 in fiscal year 2018 compared to the fiscal
year 2017 revised budget. This was due to the repayment of several grants and loans in fiscal
year 2017 from prior recipients for various reasons. This also led to an elevated level of services
expenditures in fiscal year 2017 due to the reallocation of those funds.

There are no service level changes in the fiscal year 2018 budget.
Financial Highlights:
Other Miscellaneous Revenue decreased by $678,014 in fiscal year 2018 compared to the fiscal
year 2017 revised budget. This was due to the repayment of several grants and loans in fiscal
year 2017 from prior recipients for various reasons. This also led to an elevated level of services
expenditures in fiscal year 2017 due to the reallocation of those funds.

HOME PROGRAM FUND
The HOME Program Fund accounts for HOME Investment Partnerships program
(HOME) funds that are provided to the City on an annual basis from the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). HOME funds are given directly
to states and local governments for the exclusive use of affordable housing activities.
Iowa City is an entitlement city (over 50,000 in population), and receives an annual
allocation from HUD based on a formula that looks at information such as poverty rates,
age of housing stock, etc. Congress approves the program budgets annually so the
City's allocation may change from year to year.
Budgeted fund balance at the end of fiscal year 2018 is $32,627 which is a 181%
increase from the fiscal year 2017 revised estimate. This is due to the budgeted
repayment of HOME loans.
Revenues:
82% of the HOME Fund's revenue is from federal grants with remainder coming from
loan repayments and loan interest. Budgeted federal HOME funding is lower in fiscal
year 2018 by $293,899 or 42.57% from fiscal year 2017 due to a large carry -forward of
federal funds in fiscal vear 2017 from prior vears.
FY2018 Estimated - $486,444

The mission of the HOME Investment Partnership program is to provide safe, decent, affordable
housing.
HOME Investment Partnerships program (HOME) funds are provided to the City of Iowa City on
an annual basis from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. HOME funds
are used throughout the community to address the housing needs of lower income citizens. This
is accomplished through:
• Acquisition of land and buildings
• Rehabilitation of existing housing
• Tenant -based rental assistance
• New construction of owner -occupied and rental housing
• Over $12.7 million in HOME funds invested in Iowa City since 1994
• In Fiscal Year 2016, the program leveraged approximately $547,000 in private and
public funds and assisted 22 affordable rental and/or owner -occupied units
Fiscal Year 2017 projects are identified in the Fiscal Year 2017 Annual Action Plan at
www.icgov.org/actionplan.
The HOME allocation process, including the public input process, can be found in the City's
Citizen Participation Plan.

The Road Use Tax Fund accounts for revenue sharing from state taxes related to transportation
(road use taxes). Road use taxes (RUT) include gasoline taxes, weight taxes, and license fees
collected through a state and deposited into the Iowa Road Use Tax Fund (RUTF). After some
off -the -top diversions, receipts into the RUTF are distributed according to a formula of 47.5
percent for the state primary road system, 24.5 percent for secondary county roads, 8 percent
for farm -to -market county roads, and 20 percent for city streets.
In 2008, an additional source of state revenue was established through legislation creating a
separate "TIME -21" funding stream. This revenue is dedicated primarily to maintenance and
construction of certain primary highways in the state (60 percent), but also of secondary roads
(20 percent) and municipal streets (20 percent). The new revenue stream was created by
changing certain vehicle registration fees and schedules and by increasing trailer and title fees.
Road use taxes are allocated to cities on a per capita basis. The population counts used for
distribution are based on the U.S. Census Bureau figures, which are updated every ten years.
The 2010 census was finalized in the summer of 2011 and resulted in an increase in the City's
population from 62,220 in 2000 to 67,862 in 2010, and a step-up in revenue.
In March 2015, a $.10 per gallon fuel excise tax increase was passed by the State. This
increase caused a large step-up in road use tax revenues during fiscal year 2015.
City use of road use taxes is restricted to street and storm sewer maintenance, repair, and
construction. This includes engineering, street lighting, streets signs and signals, snow
removal, street cleaning, right-of-way maintenance, and related activities.
Road Use Tax Fund fund balance on June 30, 2016 was $5,767,142, an increase of 3.65% over
the fiscal year 2015 year-end balance. This increase was due to increase in the fuel excise tax
rate.

Following the increase in the fuel excise tax in fiscal year 2015, the Road Use Tax Fund
significantly increased its transfers out to the Capital Projects Fund. Funding for the annual
pavement rehabilitation program has increased from $642,665 in fiscal year 2014 to $1,482,000
in fiscal year 2018. In addition, new capital improvement project spending from RUT was
added. A project to reconstruct Davenport Street ($675,000 in fiscal year 2016) was added; an
annual project to install LED streetlights ($75,000 per year) was added; the ADA curb ramp
program of $100,000 every -other -year was changed to $100,000 every year; and a new annual
complete streets program ($300,000 in fiscal year 2017 and $150,000 in fiscal year 2018 and
later) was added. These figures are reflected in the fund's transfers out to the Capital Projects
Fund.
In the fiscal year 2017 and fiscal year 2018 transfers out to the Capital Projects Fund, a $1
million transfer is included in each year to the Public Works Facility project for the replacement
of the traffic engineering and streets maintenance shops and storage facilities.
Due to the increase in capital improvement project funding, the fiscal year 2017 projected fund
balance is an 18.75% decrease compared to fiscal year 2016, and the fiscal year 2018
projected fund balance is a 24.74% decrease compared to fiscal year 2017. Projected fiscal
year 2018 ending fund balance is budgeted at $3,526,400.
Revenues:
In fiscal year 2018, Road Use Tax Fund revenues are projected to be over $8.3 million, which is
virtually no change over the fiscal year 2017 estimated revenue. Road Use Tax Fund revenues
have increased by 23.36% since fiscal year 2014. Road Use Tax shared revenue represents
99% of the revenue in the Road Use Tax Fund.

The mission of the Streets Division is to provide a high quality driving surface on city streets and
bridges during all seasons of the year, and to maintain and optimize traffic control to
accommodate efficient and safe traffic movement.
The division's budget is organized into four activities: Road Use Tax Administration, Traffic
Engineering, Streets System Maintenance, and Sidewalk Inspection. The Road Use Tax Fund
accounts for the activity of the Streets Division.
Road Use Tax Administration
Road Use Tax Administration accounts for Road Use Tax receipts, receipt of the Streets
Division's portion of the Employee Benefits Levy, and costs associated with an annual
audit and loss reserve payment.
Sidewalk Inspection
Iowa City is divided into ten geographical areas for sidewalk inspection. Each year, the
sidewalks in one of these ten areas are thoroughly inspected in accordance with the
criteria established by the City Engineer to determine if sidewalk repairs are necessary.
Traffic Engineering
Traffic Engineering staff coordinate and maintain traffic signals and signage; traffic and

Upcoming Challenges:
• Limited road use tax revenues
inhibit our ability to perform
adequate preventive
maintenance on City streets.
• This deferred maintenance will
result in poorer pavement
quality and increased demand
for patching and temporary
repairs.
• Automation of the leaf collection
program.
• Completing existing work
assignments such as pavement
repairs, leaf collection, and
snow plowing with current
revenue and resource levels.
• Upgrading the Streets Division
campus.
• Converting City owned lighting
to LED fixtures for energy
conservation.
Staffing:
Staffing Level Change Summary:
Two full-time Maintenance Worker I positions have been added in the fiscal year 2018 budget
and have been budgeted in the Streets System Maintenance activity.
The Streets Superintendent, Assistant Streets Superintendent, and Senior Clerk/Typist —
Streets had been split 50%/50% between the Traffic Engineering activity and the Streets
System Maintenance activity through fiscal year 2017. In fiscal year 2018, these positions are
now budgeted 100% in Streets System Maintenance.
Service Level Change Summary:
Due to the growth of the City's street infrastructure, two additional Maintenance Worker I
positions have been added to increase service levels. Prior to fiscal year 2018, there had been
twelve snow plow routes with teams of two members and a snow plow truck assigned to each
route. The addition of two staff members and a new snow plow will allow the Streets Operations
to form an additional snow plow route.
The Maintenance Worker I positions are also essential to repairing streets, driveways,
sidewalks, catch basins, curbs and gutters. They operate light and heavy equipment in the
maintenance, repair, and construction of City infrastructure. They perform crack sealing,
installation and repair of street signs, and the installation and maintenance of pavement
markings. They also perform street sweeping duties and leaf collection. These positions are
necessary to maintain service levels as the City continues to grow.
Financial Highlights:
Several capital outlay items have been included in fiscal year 2018. Traffic Engineering has
funds budgeted to purchase painting equipment - $20,000, to paint traffic signal poles - $80,000,
to paint light poles - $20,000, and to replace traffic signal equipment - $85,000.
Streets System Maintenance has capital outlay funds budgeted to purchase an emulsion tank -
$35,000, to purchase a concrete drill - $10,000, and to purchase an additional snow plow -
$168,800.
Personnel expenditures in the Streets System Maintenance activity grew by 7.40% in fiscal year
2018 due to the addition of two new Maintenance Worker I positions and due to the
restructuring of the administration positions.

This fund accounts for federal and state disaster and stimulus grants, including Jumpstart Iowa,
Hazard Mitigation Grant Project (HMGP) Buyout, and Supplemental Community Development
Block Grants (CDBG). Individual programs provide public assistance for business and
residential flood recovery efforts, the acquisition and removal of properties within the flood plain,
down payment assistance for owner -occupied affordable housing to replace the tax base lost
from the buyout. Infrastructure projects related to flood protection include levees, water well
head protection, and bridge and roadway elevation. The City of Iowa City's role in the majority
of grant programs is to manage pass-through grants and distribute them to Iowa City
businesses and residents affected by the flood.
Prior Year Assistance Summary:
• Buyout: 93 residential properties were acquired in the Park View Terrace and Taft
Speedway neighborhoods with disaster recovery buyout grants. The HMGP Buyout has
been closed out, and the CDBG Buyout was closed out in 2013. Approximately $22
million in grant funds have been expended for property acquisition, demolition and
relocation.
• Residential Rehabilitation: 106 households received assistance from state Jumpstart
and federal Jumpstart grants. Approximately $3.3 million in residential rehabilitation
assistance was distributed.
• Business Assistance: 79 businesses were assisted with either Jumpstart Business funds
or Business Rental Assistance Program funds. Approximately $2.3 in business
assistance has been distributed.
• Single Family New Construction: 141 owner -occupied affordable housing units have
been constructed and sold. Approximately $6.0 million has been expended for down
payment assistance.
• Infrastructure: CDBG Public Infrastructure funding, management, and monitoring is
being provided for the Wastewater Treatment Facility relocation, Rocky Shore Lift
Station project, construction of the East Side Levee and West Side Levee projects, and
flood proofing protection of the water well heads at the Water Treatment Facility site.
In fiscal year 2016, the fund activity reflects a flood mitigation buyout grant to purchase and
remove six homes in the flood plain. The federal grant share is $1,094,390, the State of Iowa's
share is $145,918, and the City's share will be $218,879. The City's share may be in kind or in
cash and is shown as a transfer -in from the General Fund. The total project is $1,459,187.
In fiscal year 2016, the City also received a $60,000 Invest Health grant. Invest Health is a new
initiative that brings together diverse leaders from mid-sized U.S. cities across the nation to
develop new strategies for increasing and leveraging private and public investments to
accelerate improvements in neighborhoods facing the biggest barriers to better health.
No grant or project activity is budgeted for fiscal year 2018.

UNIVERCITY NEIGHBORHOOD PARTNERSHIPS FUND
The UniverCity Neighborhood Partnership program is a collaboration between the City
and the University of Iowa. The program purchases rental homes in designated
neighborhoods, restores them to single-family homes, and then sells them to income -
qualifying families.
The property renovations are to be between $40,000 and $50,000, and the University
provides down payment assistance to University employees. Local lenders provide low-
interest loans for the purchase of properties. Homebuyers who are selected to purchase
one of the homes will pay the original acquisition price plus loan and carrying costs,
which may include interest for the time that the property is held in City ownership,
recording fee for construction loan mortgage, mowing and snow removal, utilities, real
estate taxes, and insurance. The cost of renovations will NOT be passed on to the
homebuyers so long as the homebuyers retain ownership of the property as their
primary residence for seven years. In addition, all homes must be maintained as owner -
occupied housing and affordable housing for twenty years.
The program began in fiscal year 2010 when the City initially received $1.25 million
through the State of Iowa I -JOBS program. The first'round' of the UniverCity program
(using I -JOBS funds) renovated 26 homes. The program celebrated the sale of its 50`h
home in the fall of 2015.
In fiscal year 2013, the activity for this program was moved to the Community
Development activity in the Neighborhood Services division of the Neighborhood and
Development Services department in the General Fund.

METROPOLITAN PLANNING ORGANIZATION (MPOJC)
OF JOHNSON COUNTY
The Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPOJC) of Johnson County Fund is a special
revenue fund that accounts for the operations of the MPO.
Funding for the MPOJC is derived from multiple sources including the City's General
Fund and the Road Use Tax Fund. Contributions are also received from the MPOJC's
other government members in Johnson County and from State of Iowa grants.
Fund balance in the MPO fund has increased steadily since fiscal year 2014 from
$170,860 to $302,423. The fund balance as a percentage of revenues and transfers in
has increased from 24% in fiscal year 2014 to 53% in fiscal year 2016. The fund
balance is budgeted to decrease slightly in fiscal year 2017 to $295,421. In fiscal year
2018, the fund balance is projected to decrease by 18.28% to $241,415. This is an
intentional decrease to help bring the fund balance down, and is being done through a
temporary reduction in member contributions and transfers -in.
There are no staffing or service level changes planned for the MPOJC in fiscal year
2018. Revenues and transfers -in for fiscal year 2018 are expected to be lower by 3.93%
due to lower member contributions. Expenditures are higher in fiscal year 2018 by
2.80% primarily due to the increased cost of salaries and benefits.

This fund accounts for annual employee benefit costs for the General Fund and a share
of Road Use Tax employees. Costs include health, dental, life and disability insurance;
employer -share FICA and IPERS retirement contributions; Chapter 411 Police and Fire
retirement contributions, accidental disability and on-the-job injury medical claims; and
workers compensation insurance.
Legal authority for the fund is established by two sections code. Iowa State Code
chapter 386.6.1 provides authority for municipalities to establish a fund for the purpose
of "accounting for pension and related employee benefit funds as provided by the City
Finance Committee", while also providing the authority to levy a tax in the amount
necessary to meet these obligations. Chapter 545.4 of the Administrative Code of Iowa
provides the City Finance Committee's definition of eligible benefits and how they are
must be accounted for.
During the 2009 legislative session, a bill was passed amending section 411.16(5)(c)(2)
of the Iowa State Code. This amendment added a presumption for police and fire
personnel, that any infectious disease and/or cancer is presumed to have been
contracted during the performance of the duties, placing fiduciary responsibility for all
related medical claims upon the employer. As with other accidental disability and on-
the-job medical claims, cash reserves will be utilized to prevent a spike in the tax levy in

The Affordable Housing Fund was a new fund created during fiscal year 2016. The fund
accounts for developer fees and contributions towards the development of affordable
housing throughout the City.
During 2014, the City issued a Request for Proposals for the development of a parcel of
land that the City owns at the corner of Court and Linn Streets, which is also the former
site of St. Patrick Catholic Church. In the summer of 2015, C.A. Ventures was selected
as the developer for this property.
As part of the development of this property, C.A. Ventures has agreed to a purchase
price of $5.5 million. The proceeds from this sale are accounted for in the Parking Fund.
The developer has committed to constructing a project totaling $74 million that will
include 2 towers containing 20,000 square feet of office space, 320 residential units, a
152 room hotel, and retail space. The developer has also agreed to lease 32 one -
bedroom units (10% of the total number of units) to qualified households with incomes at
or below 80% of the Area Median Income and to make a contribution of $1,000,000 to
the City's Affordable Housing Fund.
City Council has directed that affordable housing funds to be split 3 ways:
1) 50% to the Johnson County Housing Trust Fund,
2) 30% to be held for land banking or emergent situations determined by the City
Council,
3) 20% directed to HCDC for LIHTC support or supplemental aid through the
CDBG/HOME application process.
The fiscal year 2016 revised fund balance is $1,000,000. In fiscal years 2017 and 2018,
the ending fund balances are projected to be $0.
Revenues:
Fiscal year 2016 revised revenue budget is $1,000,000 from a developer contribution.
No revenue is projected for fiscal year 2017 or fiscal year 2018. The Affordable Housing
Fund will receive a $650,000 transfer in from the General Fund in fiscal year 2018.
Expenditures:
The fiscal year 2018 expenditure budget decreases to $650,000 from $1,000,000.

In 2003, City Council voted to support the development of affordable housing by
committing to the construction of 17 housing units in conjunction with The Housing
Fellowship. The Iowa City Housing Authority, which is an activity of the Neighborhood
Services division and the Neighborhood & Development Services (NDS) department,
owns and operates seven (7) of the rental units. The remaining ten (10) units are owned
and operated by The Housing Fellowship. This fund accounts for the operation of the
seven units owned by the Iowa City Housing Authority.
Funding for the project included an Economic Development Grant, CDBG funds, and
HOME funds. In addition, general obligation bonds were issued to finance a $410,000
loan to The Housing Fellowship and a $256,000 internal loan to the Iowa City Housing
Authority. The internal loan payments are accounted for in this fund. Both of these loans
are payable to the City's Debt Service Fund. The outstanding balance owed to the Debt
Service fund from the Peninsula Apartments fund at June 30, 2017 will be $125,715.
Also as part of the financing structure, The Housing Fellowship issued an interest -only
loan to the Iowa City Housing Authority for $210,784 for the Peninsula Apartments. The
repayment of the full principal balance will be due in a balloon payment in fiscal year
2025. These interest -only payments are accounted for in this fund.
Revenue: Rental income is projected at $73,345 in fiscal year 2018, a decrease of
0.89% from the estimated fiscal year 2017 estimate.
Fund Balance: The fiscal year 2018 ending fund balance is projected at $162,607.
Cash balance will be allowed to increase until reaching $210,784. This is the amount of
a lump sum payment which is due in fiscal year 2025 as part of the original financing for
this project.

TAX INCREMENT FINANCING FUNDS
Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Districts have been established in various locations in
Iowa City to encourage economic development. TIF revenues are used to repay debt
incurred for specific projects and to pay property tax rebates on increased valuation per
development -specific agreements within the districts. As TIF agreements expire and/or
their legal requirements are satisfied, tax revenue generated by the incremental
valuation (increase in property values for the district since it was established) is
distributed to all taxing authorities. The objective of Iowa City's TIF capacity is to provide
gap financing for development projects which meet the adopted goals and criteria of the
respective TIF district.
The City has established twelve TIF districts. The table below presents debt that has
been certified against the City's TIF districts and their respective collections to repay
those debts. Not presented in the budget are the Industrial Park Road, Highway 6
Industrial Park, Northgate Corporate Park, Lower Muscatine Road, and the Camp
Cardinal urban renewal areas; these areas have no outstanding tax increment debt.

DOWNTOWN SELF -SUPPORTED MUNICIPAL IMPROVEMENT
DISTRICT (SSMID)
In fiscal year 2013, the City in conjunction with Iowa City downtown businesses created
a Self -Supporting Municipal Improvement District (SSMID) as allowed under Iowa
property tax code in downtown Iowa City.
The City levies a property tax at a maximum rate of $2.00 per $1,000 of taxable valuable
on property that is within the boundaries of the downtown district. The taxes that are
collected are then remitted to the Iowa City Downtown District (ICDD) which uses the
funds to promote and enhance the downtown district. In addition to the property tax funds,
the ICDD receives annual assistance from the University of Iowa. The SSMID was
renewed for a ten year period starting on July 1, 2016 and ending on June 30, 2026. The
maximum rate was approved to increase to $2.50 per $1,000 of taxable value on July 1,
2021. Below is a map of the improvement district:
All of the funds received by the City through the SSMID property tax levy are remitted to
the ICDD, therefore the fund does not maintain a fund balance. SSMID payments to ICDD
in fiscal year 2016 totaled $295,284. The estimated payments in fiscal year 2017 total
$317,859, and the budgeted collections in fiscal year 2018 are $351,840 including the
State backfill for commercial property taxes. Fiscal year 2018 payouts are projected to
increase by 10.69% over fiscal year 2017. This is due to increased property valuations in
the district and a slight expansion of the district to include more properties in the area.

DEBT SERVICE FUND
Fund Summary
Debt Schedules
I1]43I NAZIVAMA9,11►1I]
This fund accounts for annual principal and interest payments due on the City's general
obligation and tax increment revenue bonded debt. Funding is provided by the debt
service property tax levy, tax increment financing, transfers from Water Operations, and
loan repayments.
Chapter 384.4 of the Iowa State Code provides legal authority for a city to establish a
debt service fund and certify taxes to be levied in the amount necessary to pay for the
principal and interest on general obligation bonds issued by the city.
The debt service levy for fiscal year 2018 is $3.58 per $1,000 in valuation - this is a
reduction of $.25 per $1,000 from the fiscal year 2017 levy. Future general obligation
bond issues are estimated at $9.823 million in 2017, $12.899 million in 2018, and
$12.281 million in 2019 including 2% for bond issuance costs. Proceeds from bond
issues are recorded in the Capital Projects Fund.
Annual principal and interest payments (not including estimated annual payments for the
2017 proposed bond issue) as of June 30, 2017 are projected to be as follows:

City's Debt Policies
There are currently three benchmarks used by the City of Iowa City to evaluate its
financial position concerning its debt: 1) the 5% statutory debt limit, 2) the internal
restriction on the debt service levy of 30% of the City's total levy, and 3) the level of
outstanding general obligation and tax increment revenue bonded debt against the City's
total assessed valuation. These three benchmarks are included in the new Debt
Management policy that the City Council adopted in October 2015.
Statutory limitations which govern the issuance of debt in Iowa include Article XI Section
3 of the state constitution, entitled "Indebtedness of Political or Municipal Corporations."
Language in this section restricts the level of indebtedness for Iowa municipalities to five
percent (5%) of "the value of ...taxable property within such county or corporation." This
is commonly referred to as the "debt ceiling or debt limit."
The graph below compares Iowa City's outstanding general obligation (G.O.) and tax
increment financing revenue debt with the statutory debt limit. Total valuations for Iowa
City for fiscal year 2018 are approximately $5.487 billion. The debt limit, or five percent
(5%) of this amount, is about $274.3 million. Outstanding G.O. debt at June 30, 2018, is
estimated to be $67.9 million, which is 24.8% of the debt limit and 1.24% of total
valuations. The City's general obligation and tax increment revenue bonded debt versus
the State imposed legal debt limit has been on a declining trend since fiscal year 2010.

This City's Debt Management policy, which limits its ability to levy taxes for repayment of
debt, states that the debt service levy shall not exceed 30% of the city levy.
The following chart shows the debt service levy as a percentage of the city levy rate for
fiscal year 2010 through fiscal year 2019. Fiscal years 2017 through 2019 are based on
estimated financing requirements for the City's five-year capital improvement program.
The City's debt service levy rate for fiscal year 2018 is $3.58 per $1,000 of value while the
City's total property tax levy rate is $16.333 per $1,000 of value. The debt service levy
rate is projected to decrease another $.25 in fiscal year 2019.

Also, as part of the Debt Management policy, the City Council set a goal to reduce its
outstanding general obligation and tax increment revenue bonded debt as a percentage of
its total assessed property valuations to .75%. The following chart is trend of that

Bond Rating
The City obtains its General Obligation bond rating from Moody's Investors Service each time
a new bond is issued. The City's current bond rating is Aaa. Maintaining the City's Aaa bond
is a strategic priority for the City.
Fund Balance
The estimated ending fund balance in the Debt Service fund for fiscal year 2016 is
$6,000,280. This is a decline of $444,438 or 6.9% from the fiscal year 2015 ending fund
balance. The decrease in fund balance is primarily related to the early call of the 2008A
general obligation bonds.
Ending fund balance for fiscal year 2017 is estimated to be $6,580,409 which is an increase of
$580,129 or 9.67% from fiscal year 2016. This increase is due to the accumulation of funds
for the repayment of the 2012D and 2016E tax increment financing revenue bonds. The 2017
revised budget includes an early call of the 2008B and 2009C general obligation bonds
totaling $3,045,000. The transfer from the Water Fund for debt service payments is
completed in the fiscal year 2017 budget.
The estimated ending fund balance for fiscal year 2018 is projected to be $6,593,568 which is
an increase of $13,159 or 0.20%. The fiscal year 2018 budget includes an early call of the
20106 and 2011A general obligation bonds totaling $3,800,000.
The 2019 projected budget includes and early call of the 2011C general obligation bonds of
$2,610,000.
Although, the entire fund balance for the Debt Service fund is restricted debt service
expenditures, an additional restriction is shown for funds that are being held as a reserve for
the 2012D and 2016E tax increment financing revenue bonds. Restricted fund balance is
estimated as $1,617,778 at the end of fiscal year 2018.

PARKING FUND
The Parking Fund accounts for the activities of the City's parking operations. The Parking Fund
is an enterprise fund and is a fully self-sustaining business -like activity. Revenues are primarily
derived from parking meter revenue, parking ramp revenue, and parking fines.
The Parking Fund's unassigned fund balance on June 30, 2016 was $4,857,110, a 45.97%
increase from fiscal year 2015. This increase was due to a reduction in debt service
expenditures as a result of the early defeasance of the 2009 parking revenue bonds in fiscal
year 2015. Using Parking Fund cash balances and a $2.5 million loan from the Landfill Fund,
the 2009 parking revenue bonds were defeased by placing approximately $7.3 million with a
trustee.
The fiscal year 2017 year-end unassigned fund balance is estimated to increase 24.92% from to
$6,067,298. In fiscal year 2018, the unassigned fund balance is estimated to increase 10.07%
to $6,678,479. These increases are primarily due to the reduction of debt service expenditures.

Estimated restricted fund balance at June 30, 2018 is $3,500,000. This restricted fund balance
represents funds held from the sale of the parking lot at the corner of Court & Linn Streets.
Prior year restricted fund balances also included funds that were held in accordance with
revenue bond provisions that were eliminated when the 2009 revenue bonds were defeased
and from the parking impact fee ordinance.
The City entered into a development agreement for the sale of the parking lot at the corner of
Court & Linn Streets for $5.5 million in 2015. Completion of the sale is took place in the spring
of 2016. These funds were placed into the Parking Debt Service Reserve to be used to make
lease -purchase payments on the proposed Harrison Street parking garage.
A parking impact fee, which deals with off-street parking requirements, is required for residential
development in most of the Near Southside Neighborhood. The Near Southside is bound by
Burlington Street to the north, Madison Street to the west, Gilbert Street to the east, and the
MY,
Iowa Interstate Railway main -line to the south. The revenues from the impact fee are to provide
parking facilities in the Near Southside. A formula is used to determine the amount of required
off-street parking and the amount of required parking impact fee. The Neighborhood &
Development Services department collects the fee, which may be paid in three installments,
with the first installment due before the certificate of occupancy is issued.
The City has entered into an agreement for the construction of a 600 space parking garage
along Harrison Street between Dubuque and Clinton Streets. The garage is part of a larger
development that includes Midwest One Bank and the 28 -unit Sabin townhome development.
The lease purchase is being funded through Capital One Public Funding and will cost
approximately $15.3 million to build. The garage is expected to be completed in the spring of
2017 and lease -purchase payments are expected to begin in July 2017.

Surface parking lots charge $60.00 per month for parking leases. These fees are budgeted to
increase to $65.00 per month in fiscal year 2018.
Fiscal year 2018 revenue is estimated to increase 4.26% when compared to fiscal year 2017
estimated revenue. This increase is anticipated due to increased revenue due from the opening
of the Harrison Street parking garage. Parking service charges are approximately 95% of fund
revenues and parking fines are about 3%.

The Parking Division of the Transportation and Resource Management Department is a self-
supporting enterprise fund responsible for providing safe and convenient parking options in
downtown Iowa City.
The division oversees the operation of five ramps, with a sixth opening in March of 2017, five
surface lots, and on -street (metered) parking. Parking Services enforces parking regulations in
the central business district and surrounding areas, while the Police Department enforces

Service Level Change Summary:
The Harrison Street parking garage is expected to open in March of 2017. This will be an
automated facility which will carry similar operating expenses as the Chauncey Swan facility.
A $5 per month increase to parking permit charges is also proposed for fiscal year 2018. This
would result in surface lots charging $65 per month and parking structures charging $85 per
month. We estimate that this would result in an increase of $80,000 in revenues. The last rate
increase for parking permits was in July of 2009.
Financial Highlights:
On street service expenditures have increased in fiscal year 2018 from $260,084 to $489,140
due to a budgeted loan for the cleanup and renovation of 'pig alley' downtown. This loan is
expected to be repaid with additional parking fees from the owners.
Parking ramp operation charges for service revenues and services expenditures have increased
in fiscal year 2018 due to the opening of the Harrison Street parking garage.
Debt service expenditures have increased in fiscal year 2018 to $3,114,695 from $0 due to the
purchase of the Harrison Street parking garage. Lease -purchase payments to begin and are
estimated at $1,114,695. An additional $2,000,000 is callable on the lease on June 1, 2018,
and it is expected that the Parking Fund will call in a portion of the debt at that time. Parking
impact fees of $385,583 will also be used to offset a portion of the initial lease -purchase
payment.

The Transit Fund accounts for the operations of the City's public transportation operations. The
Transit enterprise fund utilizes user fees, property taxes, and State and Federal funding to
provide transportation services throughout the City including para -transit services.
In fiscal year 2016, total fund balance grew by 14.55% or $693,002 over fiscal year 2015
primarily due to operating revenues exceeding operating expenditures at the Court Street
Transportation Center. The fiscal year 2017 projected total fund balance is estimated to
decrease by 4.3% or $232,563 from fiscal year 2016 due to the replacement of ten buses. Total
fund balance is budgeted to grow by 6.90% or $360,267 in fiscal year 2018.

The Transit Fund has assigned fund balance for bus replacement reserves. For fiscal year
2018, the assigned fund balance is estimated at $781,482. Funds are transferred from the
Transit operations to the bus replacement reserve to cover 20% of depreciation expense. Bus
grants typically cover about 80% of the cost of replacement, and the bus replacement reserves
are expected to cover the remaining 20%. Ten bus replacements are scheduled in fiscal year
2017 which will use approximately $505,817 in reserve funds to match grants totaling
$2,813,183.

Revenues:
The Transit fund is funded through several revenue sources:
• Federal Operating Assistance: Based on an MPOJC formula, these funds
are distributed annually between Cambus, Coralville Transit, and Iowa City
Transit. State Operating Assistance: Job Access and Reverse Commute
Program (JARC), is a Federally -funded, application -based grant program,
with annual allocations. This is 35.6% of fiscal year 2018 budgeted revenue.
• Transit Property Tax Levy: Iowa State Code chapter 384.12.10 provides the
legal authority for municipalities to levy additional taxes, including "a tax for
the operation and maintenance of a municipal transit system..." Iowa City
transit property tax levy is $.95 per thousand of valuation. These property tax
funds are collected in the General fund and transferred to the Transit fund.
• Bus Fares: Fares amount to 30.9% of the Transit fund revenue. No fare
increases are being proposed for fiscal year 2018.
• Court Street Transportation Parking and Rent Revenues: These revenues
include all hourly ($1.00 per hour after the first hour) and permit ($80 per
month) parking as well as rent from the commercial properties. A monthly
permit fee increase of $5 is proposed for fiscal year 2018 to raise the monthly
rate to $85.
• Other Revenue: The Transit fund also receives revenue from advertising and
other miscellaneous sources.
Fiscal year 2018 revenue is projected to decrease from the fiscal year 2017 revised revenue
estimates by 41.7%. The decrease is directly related to the bus grants to be received in
fiscal year 2017. 48% of the Transit Fund's revenue comes from intergovernmental funding
in fiscal year 2018.

The Transit Property Tax Levy estimated at $3,384,076 will be transferred into the Transit
fund from the General fund in fiscal year 2018. Combined with the funding from other
governments, approximately $5.41 million of the $7.71 million in revenues and transfers in
or 70.16% is from sources of revenue that are not generated by the transit operations. This
is a decrease from the fiscal year 2017 revised budget of 77.42% due to the bus
replacement grants.

Expenditures:
Fiscal year 2018 budgeted expenditures represent a 31.52% decrease from the fiscal year
2017 revised expenditure budget. The primary difference is a decrease in capital outlay
expenditures for bus replacements.

The Transit Division is a self-supporting enterprise fund that provides fixed -route and paratransit
bus services as well as operating the Court Street Transportation Center. The division is
committed to providing safe, courteous, and quality transportation to the citizens and visitors of
Iowa City as well as the City of University Heights. The division's budget is organized into four
activities:
Transit Administration
Transit Administration personnel consists of a 25% cost share of the Transportation &
Resource Management Administration budget, a .50 FTE Operations Supervisor, and a
1.0 FTE Customer Service Representative. Administration oversees the operation of:
Mass Transit Operations (fixed -route and paratransit services)
Iowa City Transit fixed route operations include 19 routes during weekday peak service
within the corporate limits of Iowa City and University Heights. Fixed route bus service is
operated with a 27 bus fleet, Monday - Friday from 5:45 am - 11:20 pm, Saturday from
5:45 am - 7:40 pm. During peak hours, most routes operate on 30 minute headways
while providing hourly service during off-peak and Saturdays. Complimentary paratransit
service is provided mirroring the hours of operation of the fixed route service. These
services are contracted through an agreement with Johnson County SEATS with
vehicles provided by the City of Iowa City.
Fleet Maintenance
Iowa City Transit maintains a fleet of 27 40 ft. heavy duty buses and 13 para -transit
buses, all of which are ADA accessible.
Court Street Transportation Center
In addition to operating the public transit services, Iowa City Transit also operates the
Court Street Transportation Center. This multi -use facility houses a 600 space parking
facility and four commercial properties. This facility was FTA funded resulting in all
revenues being directed to the transit fund.
Bus Replacement Reserve
This reserve holds fund for the replacement of buses. Funds equal to 20% of the
accumulated depreciation of the City's bus fleet are maintained in this reserve to be
used as a match for state or federal grants to replace buses. This reserve also accounts
for the bus replacement grant and purchase activity.

The Wastewater Treatment Fund accounts for the business -like operations of the City's
wastewater/sewer utility. The wastewater utility operates the City's waste treatment plant, the
sewage lift stations, the sanitary sewer collection system, and the wastewater monitoring
operations. The Wastewater Treatment Fund is primarily supported through user fees.
The wastewater operations have been undergoing a major transformation over the last few
years. The City completed a major expansion of the South Wastewater Treatment Plant during
fiscal year 2015, and all of the City's sewage treatment operations were consolidated at the
South Plant. The project cost was $55 million, and was funded from $41.4 million from state
and federal grants, $8.6 million from Local Option Sales Tax revenue, and $5 million from
Wastewater user fees. A project to demolish and remove the North Treatment Plant and
establish wetlands and a park was started in fiscal year 2015 at an estimated cost of $6 million
with the assistance of a State sales tax flood mitigation grant. Estimated completion for that
project is the fall of 2017.
The Wastewater Treatment Fund provided a $6 million loan to the Capital Projects Fund for the
demolition of the North Wastewater Treatment Plant in fiscal year 2015. This loan is being
repaid with the State sales tax grant flood mitigation grant. The loan payment schedule is as

The Wastewater Treatment Fund's unassigned fund balance at fiscal year 2016 year-end was
higher than fiscal year 2015 by approximately 2.46%. This increase was primarily due to the
loan payment of $200,000 from the Capital Projects Fund.

(1) FY17 and FY18 figures are estimated
In fiscal years 2017 and 2018, unassigned fund balance is expected to decrease by $447,895 or
4.40% to $9,724,775 from fiscal year 2016. This is primarily due to transfers to the Capital
Projects Fund of $2.60 million and $2.56 million in fiscal year 2017 and 2018, respectively.
Reconstruction of the North River Corridor Trunk Sewer is scheduled for fiscal years 2016
through 2018 and is to be constructed in conjunction with the Gateway project (Dubuque Street
reconstruction). It will replace two existing sewers with a single sewer that will be sized to the
existing drainage area plus 5,700 acres of the Rapid Creek watershed north of 1-80. The
existing sewers were constructed in 1983 and 1936. Total trunk sewer project's cost estimate is
$4.50 million and will be funded from Wastewater user fees. This project commenced in the
summer of 2016. The fiscal year 2016, 2017, and 2018 budgets include transfers to the Capital
Projects Fund of $500 thousand, $2.0 million, and $2.0 million, respectively, for this project.
The Wastewater Treatment Fund also maintains restricted fund balance reserves due to its
outstanding revenue bonds. These funds are restricted in accordance with revenue bond
covenants. Bond covenant requirements are monitored annually on an accrual basis and
reported in the City's Consolidated Annual Financial Report. Restricted cash balance is
expected to decrease to $8,989,859 in fiscal year 2018. It is projected that the City will issue an
additional $2,025,000 is sewer revenue bonds in fiscal year 2017 for the Scott Boulevard trunk
sewer extension project that is part of the 2018 capital improvement program.

Overall, the fiscal year 2018 budgeted revenue is virtually unchanged from the 2017 revised
budget. No changes are proposed in the fiscal year 2018 budget to the City's sewer rate
structure. A sewer connection fee district is expected to be created in the service area of the
Scott Boulevard Trunk Sewer which will generate future connection fee revenue.

The Iowa City Wastewater Division exists in order to economically ensure the public health and
safety of the citizens of Iowa City and locally protect the Iowa River as a water resource for the
people of Iowa. The division will achieve the mission by providing proper care, operation, and
maintenance of City wastewater and storm water collection systems, treatment plants, and the
local environment.
Wastewater Treatment processes an average of 10.5 million gallons of wastewater per day.
Staff members measure and report 120 different tests per month to the Iowa Department of
Natural Resources (DNR) for both influent waste and treated effluent.
Other major work elements for this division include sewer main repairs, preventative
maintenance, and 24/7 response to emergency sewer calls. Staffing is seven days a week for
operations staff. Administrative, lab, and maintenance staff are on-site five days a week. The
division's budget is organized into five activities:
Wastewater Administration
Wastewater Administration personnel consists of 1.0 FTE Wastewater Superintendent,
1.0 FTE Assistant Superintendent, and 1.0 FTE Senior Clerk/Typist. Administration
oversees the wastewater treatment operations.
Wastewater Treatment Plant Operations
The Wastewater Division operates and maintains one treatment plant. The Plant (f.k.a.
as the "South Plant'), located at 4366 Napoleon St. SE, was expanded in 2013 to
accommodate more stringent water quality standards and future growth in residential
and industrial customers. The North Plant was in service for 79 years and the site has
been decommissioned and restored.
Lift Stations
The Wastewater division operates and maintains 18 wastewater lift stations and 5 storm
water stations throughout the city. The wastewater lift stations work in conjunction with
the wastewater collection system. Wastewater lift stations are facilities designed to move
wastewater from lower to higher elevation, particularly where the elevation of the source
is not sufficient for gravity flow and/or when the use of gravity conveyance will result in
excessive excavation depths and high sewer construction costs. The storm water lift
stations are facilities designed to move storm water from flood protection areas to
receiving streams thereby reducing the threat of flood damage to private and public
property.
Wastewater/Stormwater Collection Systems
The Wastewater division maintains 300 miles of sanitary sewers and 110 miles of
dedicated storm sewers. The wastewater collection system works in conjunction with
:f[1]
the wastewater lift stations. The stormwater collection system works in conjunction with
the stormwater lift stations and point of discharge to receiving streams. The sanitary
sewer and stormwater collection systems are maintained by jetting and vacuuming.
Portions are periodically televised to determine status and to calculate repair priorities.
Wastewater Debt Service
Wastewater debt service consists of principal and interest payments on wastewater
revenue bonds, which are repaid with wastewater revenue.
HIGHLIGHTS
• The total treatment capacity for the City plant is 24.2 million gallons/day under average
wet weather conditions.
• Treatment Plant operations accomplish 96.0% removal of CBOD, suspended solids, and
ammonia nitrogen — the key pollutants required to be monitored.
• Preventive maintenance jetting of the sewer collection system covers 15% per year and
video inspection covers 5% per year of the 300 miles of public sewer.
• Sewer emergency call response takes place within 30 minutes, 24 hours per day.
Recent Accomplishments:
• Finalized multiple outstanding construction issues,
• Finalized reconstruction of the Riverside South Lift station by City Staff,
• Nutrient Reduction Study documents submitted to the DNR for comment and approval,
• Preliminary report for replacement strategy of failed/failing digester heat exchangers.
• Replacement of Atomic Adsorption Machine with a version that tests for the specific
metals required by our discharge permit.
• Heat Exchanger 8301 evaluation report for replacement alternatives.
Upcoming Challenges:
• Replace the 3 biosolids dewatering presses, including ventilation system and feed
pumps.
• Replace existing 1.5KW Generator with a 2KW generator, that is capable of operating
with the full plant electrical load in emergency conditions.
• Replace the rake mechanisms in selected primary and secondary clarifiers (2 each).
• Make repairs and upgrades to several storm and sanitary lift stations.
• Replace existing failed HEX 8301 as per the evaluation report,
• Review status of the digester complex roofs, brick facades, and other anaerobic digester
equipment as needed including 15 year old heat exchangers.
411
• Continue with the yearly sewer maintenance program.
• Upgrade and provide flood protection for West Park Lift Station.
• Replace process pumps in the treatment plant proper. These included three (3) Return
Activated Sludge (RAS) pumps, and three (3) Sludge Recirculation Pumps (digester
building).
• Continue the evaluation process for determining solutions to problems related to
upcoming mandated effluent limits. A by-product of Biological Nutrient Removal is
Struvite formation and deposition in piping and equipment causing blockages and
maintenance related issues.
Staffing:
Staffing Level Change Summary:
The split of Maintenance Worker positions with the Storm Water Management division has been
eliminated. This moves .60 FTE from Storm Water Management to Wastewater Treatment.
Service Level Change Summary:
The Scott Boulevard Trunk Sewer that will serve the area between the 420`h Street, American
Legion Road and Taft Avenue will be constructed in 2018 and open for development which will
potentially increase the volume of wastewater flow to the plant. The trunk sewer will allow for the
elimination of the Winsor Ridge lift station. A sewer connection district will be created for the
area covered by this sewer expansion.
Financial Highlights:
The capital outlay budget in the Wastewater Treatment Plant Operations includes $100,000 to
chip seal the road leading into the plant.
The personnel expenditures in the Wastewater Collection Systems activity increased by
$54,905 or 11.8% primarily due to the elimination of the maintenance worker split with the Storm
Water Operations.

The Water Fund accounts the City's water utility operations including the operation of a
water production plant, water storage facilities, water distribution system, water meter
reading, and water quality monitoring. The business -like fund is primarily supported
through user fees.
The Water Fund's unassigned fund balance at the close of fiscal year 2016 was
$8,058,278. Although user fees are currently sufficient to cover annual operating costs,
they are insufficient to cover projected capital improvement project expenditures, and the
fund has a downward trend in fund balance.

(1) FY17 and FY18 figures are estimates
Fiscal year 2017 year-end unassigned fund balance is estimated to decrease 4.15%
compared to fiscal year 2016. The decrease is due to water capital improvement
projects in the Capital Projects Fund. The fiscal year 2018 unassigned fund balance is
estimated to decrease another 8.67% from fiscal year 2017 to $7,054,176. The
decrease is also due to transfers out for capital improvement projects in the Capital
Projects Fund.
The Water fund will have an estimated $4,157,504 in restricted fund balance at the end
of fiscal year 2018 for revenue bond covenants.

A flat 5% rate increase was adopted for both fiscal year 2015 and 2016 for all usage
levels and meter sizes. Approximately 98% of Water operations are funded through
charges for services. The estimated change in revenues from fiscal year 2017 to fiscal
year 2018 is a 1.7% increase. The increase is based on an anticipated increase in
customer consumption.
Use of Money & Property primarily consists of interest on investments.

Expenditures:
The fiscal year 2018 expenditures, not including debt service, are 1.5% lower than the
fiscal year 2017 revised expenditures. The largest expenditure decrease was in the
capital outlay budget of the Water Distribution System activity; this was due to an
anticipated decrease in water main repair expenditures. Revenue bond principal and
interest payments are 23% of the Water fund's expenditure budget for fiscal year 2018.
FY2018 Estimated - $8,465,882

Other financing uses include transfers out of $1,442,575 to the Capital Projects Fund
including $500,000 to the Public Works Facility project to replace the old water
maintenance facility. The old maintenance facility will then be transferred to the Refuse
Collection Operations after the new public works facility has been constructed.

WATER OPERATIONS
The mission of the Water Division is to produce and distribute high quality drinking water for the
residential, commercial, industrial, and firefighting needs of Iowa City in accordance with local, state
and federal drinking water standards, and to promote good stewardship of natural resources.
The Water Division, as part of the Public Works Department, operates and maintains the drinking
water system for the City of Iowa City and University Heights. The system is in operation 24/7 and is
maintained to provide high quality water and service, at satisfactory pressures, and in sufficient
quantities to satisfy all customer demands.
Iowa City's water exceeds all required standards set by the Environmental Protection Agency, with
over 200 water quality tests performed each day by professional staff. Water quality data is available
through the annual Consumer Confidence Report . The division budget is organized into five
activities:
Water Administration
Water Administration consists of the Water Superintendent and Assistant Superintendent.
Administration develops and administers Water Division policies, procedures, budget and
manages Water Division personnel. Water Administration coordinates Water Division
activities with other City Departments and Divisions.
Water Treatment Plant Operations
Iowa City's state-of-the-art water treatment facility, located at 80 Stephen Atkins Drive, has a
16.7 million gallon per day capacity. The facility is operated 24/7 — 365 by state licensed
operators who monitor the produced water to maintain the highest quality achievable. The
treatment plant is 100% compliant with the Safe Drinking Water Act and uses activated
carbon filters to remove many complex unregulated compounds.
Water Distribution System
Distribution staff operate and maintain Iowa City's 270 miles of water main and connections
that contains pipe as old as 1886. Every year the distribution operators respond to dozens of
emergency main breaks, support the growth of Iowa City, and maintain the integrity of the
system for firefighting and all customer water needs.
Customer Service
Customer service manages the 27,736 (FY2016) service accounts that are read and billed
monthly. Customer service personnel investigate leaks, locate water and city communication
fiber assets, interface with customers on a myriad of water concerns, schedule service
changes, and meter all of the water used by our customers.
Public Information/Education
Our Public Information Officer (PIO) creates and delivers the Consumer Confidence Report
to all customers and updates the industrial water quality report for review on the City's
website. The PIO also generates informative inserts for the customers' water bills.
Water Debt Service
Water debt service consists of principal and interest payments on water revenue bonds,
which are repaid with water revenue.
BIN
HIGHLIGHTS
Continued identification and mapping of critical customers, hospitals, industries, schools, and
restaurants, with updated contact information. This will enable streamlined notification of
critical customers in case of emergencies or planned projects which will result in disruption of
service.
• The water service stop box project was started in 2012. The project goal is to collect, record
and map stop box data for approximately 22,000 service lines in Iowa City. The information
will better assist customers during emergencies and for water main replacement projects. At
end of this fiscal year 9,689 stop box locations are complete.
• Actively participated in development and conversion to MUNIS Utility Billing System.
• Continued refinement of the Student Operator Program. The program was initially created
in 2012 as a cooperative endeavor with the University Of Iowa College Of Engineering and is
a continued success. This mutually beneficial program provides training and experience for
students and creates qualified operators for the future service to the water industry.
• Inspection, repair and replacement of distribution system assets (i.e. hydrants, valves, and
water main) by distribution staff has excelled with the use of asset management software.
These tools are to be expanded in the following year with the introduction of more real-time
mapping applications.
• The number of main breaks per 100 miles of water in FY2016 dropped 25% from the
previous year to 14.
Recent Accomplishments:
• 100% compliant with drinking water
regulations
• Repaired 14 water main breaks per 100
miles of water main in FY2016; down
from 19 in FY2015
• Added or replaced more than 3 miles of
water main.
• Continued implementation and expansion
of mapping software and asset
management software.
Upcoming Challenges:
:1117
• Design and implementation of system
reliability and pressure sustaining
solutions.
• Transition to mobile or wireless work
flows.
• Investigate and implement unit processes
to remove excess nutrients from our
source water.
• Assess the need for expanding source
water resources.
• Updating the treatment plant computer
control system.

Staffing Level Change Summary:
There are no staffing level changes in the Fiscal Year 2018 budget.
Service Level Change Summary:
There are no service level changes in the Fiscal Year 2018 budget.
Financial Highlights:
An increase in transfers to the Capital Projects Fund is planned for the coming fiscal years to
support the growth of Iowa City, to anticipate changes to federal regulations, and to maintain water
treatment facilities in good condition. Projects to highlight are the continued focus on replacement
of water main throughout the city, replace the water treatment facility roof, construction of the new
public works facility, and implement a reliability and pressure maintaining solution to keep our
customers serviced adequately.
Customer Service capital outlay budget was decreased in fiscal year 2018 to $224,200. These
expenditures are to continue to replace obsolete metering and meter reading devices as well as to
continue to meet the meter demands of new growth, especially large apartment complexes with
multiple meters.

The Refuse Collection Fund accounts for the activities of the City's curbside pickup
program for household waste, yard waste, bulky items, and appliances. The Refuse
Collection Fund is an enterprise fund that is operated as a business and is primarily
supported by user fees.
The Refuse Collection Fund's unassigned fund balance on June 30, 2016 was
$1,245,110, an 18.53% increase from fiscal year 2015. The increase primarily resulted
from an increase in the garbage collection fee of $.40 per month in fiscal year 2015.

(1) FY17 and FY18 figures are estimates
Fiscal year 2017 fund balance is projected to increase by 1.14% to $1,259,280.
Although, this is still a projected increase in fund balance, the surplus from fiscal year
2016 to fiscal year 2017 decreases by $180,503. This is primarily due to the staff
restructuring in the Transportation and Resource Management and Public Works
departments in which staff was moved from the Refuse Fund to the Road Use Tax Fund.
Fiscal year 2018 fund balance is projected to decrease by 40.94% to $743,762. This is
due to a transfer of $500,000 to the Capital Projects Fund for the Public Works Facility
Project. This transfer is intended to compensate the Water Fund for the transfer of their
maintenance facility to the Refuse Collection Fund.
The Refuse Collection fund has no restricted or assigned fund balances.
MIK
Revenues:
The Refuse Collection operations are funded primarily by user fees. The fiscal year
2018 budget proposes increases to various refuse collection fees. The following
schedule presents current user fees and the proposed fiscal year 2018 fees. There are
additional fees not listed, including the pickup of tires, TVs, and computer monitors.
There is also a proposed fee increase of $2.00 per item for TV's and monitors in fiscal
year 2018. The fee for computer monitors & TV's 18" or smaller will increase from
$16.50 to $18.50, and the fee for computer monitors & TV's larger than 18" will increase
from $21.50 to $23.50.
Refuse charges for services fund nearly 100% of refuse collection operations. General
use permits and interest on investments comprise less than 1 % of Refuse Collection
estimated revenue. Fiscal year 2018 revenue is estimated at 7.49% higher than fiscal
year 2017 due to the proposed fee increases.

Iowa City's refuse collection programs are designed to protect the health, safety and welfare of
our community by providing prompt and safe curbside collection of waste materials. Our
programs are designed around sustainable principles that promote recycling and ensure that
each specific category of waste is disposed of properly.
Refuse, Recycling, and Yard Waste Collection is administered by the Solid Waste staff within
the Transportation and Resource Management Department. Crews provide curbside pickup of
household waste, recycling, yard waste, bulky items, and appliances to over 15,600 households
on a weekly basis in Iowa City. Services are provided to residential properties ranging from one
to four units. In addition, Solid Waste crews provide elderly and handicap carryout service to
residents whom document need. The Refuse Collection budget is organized into five activities:
Refuse Collection Administration
Refuse Collection Administration personnel consists of a 17.5% cost share of the
Transportation & Resource Management Administration budget, a 1.0 FTE Assistant
Superintendent, and a .50 FTE Customer Service Representative.
Refuse Collection Operations
The city is divided into 5 sectors for garbage pickup. Visit www.icgov.org or call (319)-
356-5151 for pickup schedules. Tipper carts have now been delivered to nearly 15,000
Iowa City residents, making the collection process safer and more efficient.
Yard Waste Collection
Yard waste such as grass, leaves and garden residue can be bagged in special Iowa
City yard waste bags imprinted with the City logo. The bags are available for purchase at
participating Iowa City grocery, hardware and general merchandise stores, and at the
City Hall Cashier (410 E. Washington St.). Residents may also purchase annual yard
waste stickers. This sticker is to be placed on a container no larger than 35 gallons that
residents supply. These stickers are effective beginning April 1 and are valid for one
year.
Curbside Recycling Collection
A recycling container is provided for each single-family residence and each multiple unit
dwelling of four units or fewer.
White Goods/Bulky Items
Customers may call the Solid Waste Division (319) 356-5151 to schedule special item
collection; additional fees apply. Items available for pickup include furniture, electronics,
appliances, and tires. Usable furniture in good condition may also be donated to Habitat
for Humanity's Furniture Project, which provides good, used furniture to households in
need while diverting material from the landfill.
HIGHLIGHTS
In fiscal year 2016 Refuse Collection handled:
• 9,476 tons of refuse
• 1,689 tons of yard waste
• 1,525 tons of recycling
• 2.755 bulk items from the curbside
Recent Accomplishments:
• Implemented a curbside food waste
pick-up program as a part of yard
waste operations
• Replacing three recycling vehicles
that have exceeded their useful life
• Transitioning from a dual stream to a
single stream recycling program
• Partnered with ICDD to streamline
alley waste services in downtown
• Assisted in implementing changes to
establish a multi -family recycling
program
Staffing:
• 321 appliances from the curbside
• 221 electronics from the curbside
• 15,600 households serviced weekly
Upcoming Challenges:
• Replacement and upgrade of
recycling vehicles
• Existing facility does not have the
ability to meet storage and space
needs
• Rolling out multiple new programs
in same fiscal year; curbside food
waste and single stream recycling
Staffing Level Change Summary:
An Assistant Director of Transportation & Resource Management — Solid Waste was added in
fiscal year 2018. This position is budgeted in the Transportation Administration activity in the
General Fund, and the cost is being allocated through the Administrative Chargeback to the
Refuse Collection Fund and the Landfill Fund.
Service Level Change Summary:
There is a proposed change to the method of collection for the City's curbside recycling
program. This program would replace the pre-sorted collection system with a single -stream
collection system. The single -stream service would require that the City's recycling collection

Staffing Level Change Summary:
An Assistant Director of Transportation & Resource Management — Solid Waste was added in
fiscal year 2018. This position is budgeted in the Transportation Administration activity in the
General Fund, and the cost is being allocated through the Administrative Chargeback to the
Refuse Collection Fund and the Landfill Fund.
Service Level Change Summary:
There is a proposed change to the method of collection for the City's curbside recycling
program. This program would replace the pre-sorted collection system with a single -stream
collection system. The single -stream service would require that the City's recycling collection
trucks would all be replaced with new collection trucks that would be equipped to handle
dumping to new containers. The City would also begin replacing households' recycle tubs with
new, larger carts. The purchase of these new carts is budgeted in the Solid Waste Surcharge
Reserve in the Landfill Fund. The City would also have a new service fee for a vendor to accept
and sort the recycling materials. The change of this service is also accompanied by an increase
in the monthly recycling fee.
Another service level change would be the addition of curb side food waste collection. This
program would work in conjunction with the yard waste collection program. Newfood
waste/yard waste containers are budgeted in the Solid Waste Surcharge Reserve in the Landfill
Fund.
Financial Highlights:
The fiscal year 2018 budget includes a $.20 per month rate increase in the solid waste
collection fee and an increase of $1.25 for each additional bag. The refuse collection rates will
increase from $11.80 to $12.00 per household per month for the solid waste collection fee, and
from $1.25 to $2.50 for each additional bag of trash. The estimated increase in revenue from
these changes is $36,742.
Due to the increase in disposal costs for electronic waste at the landfill, an increase in the
refuse collection rates for electronic waste are also being proposed for fiscal year 2018. The
proposed fee increases are $2.00 per item, which will increase the fee for computer monitors &
TV's 18" or smaller from $16.50 to $18.50 and will increase the fee for computer monitors &
TV's larger than 18"from $21.50 to $23.50.
The fiscal year 2018 budget also includes a $1.00 per month increase in the recycling fee. The
recycling fee will increase from $4.10 per household per month to $5.10 per household per
month. This fee increase is intended to cover the increased cost for moving to a single stream
recycling program. The estimated increase in revenue from this change is $181,664. The
increase in service expenditures for the change to this service is $154,665.
A change in the fee structure for yard waste collection is also being proposed for January 1,
2018. This change would eliminate the yard waste bags and stickers and replace them with a
new container for each household. This container would also be used to collect food waste. A
monthly fee would be charged to each household for this service. The proposed monthly fee is
$2.00 per household per month. The estimated annual increase in revenue from this change is
$176,175.

The Landfill Fund accounts for the business -like operations of the City's municipal landfill and
recycling operations. The Landfill fund is primarily supported user fees.
The Landfill Fund's total fund balance on June 30, 2016 was $24.926 million, a 3.80% increase
from the fiscal year 2015 year-end fund balance. Of the $24.926 million, $23.349 million was
restricted in use per Iowa State code for site closure, post closure, and environmental protection
costs and reserved for landfill cell replacement. The fund balance increase was primarily due to
a 10% increase in the per ton tipping fee.

(1) FY 17 and FY 18 figures are estimates
The fiscal year 2017 projected, unassigned fund balance is $1,435,981 which is an 8.95% or
$141,084 decrease over the fiscal year 2016 unassigned fund balance. This change is primarily
a result of transfers to the Capital Projects Fund. In fiscal year 2018, the unassigned fund
balance is estimated to increase $269,640 or 18.78%. This increase is primarily due to a
decrease in budgeted transfers to the Capital Projects Fund.
The Landfill maintains a reserve for the cell replacement. Through Engineering, a cost analysis
was completed during fiscal year 2014 to calculate a per -ton cost to open new cells. Based
upon this analysis, the Landfill would need to transfer $7.79 per ton collected to properly fund
the cell replacement reserve. The actual transfer to the replacement reserve is $4.00 per ton
collected. The projected balance in the Landfill Cell Replacement Reserve at the end of fiscal
year 2018 is $8.327 million not including a $1.666 million outstanding loan balance to the
Parking Fund.
The City also maintains separate reserves as required by State law. Iowa State law requires
landfill fund balance restrictions as follows:
454
• Financial Assurance for Closure and Post -Closure: The State of Iowa requires that the
owner/operator of a landfill set aside funds to provide for the costs associated with closing
the landfill and ongoing maintenance of the closed landfill site. The City is mandated to
provide for the future costs associated with closing the landfill in a manner that satisfies
State environmental and safety requirements, including minimizing infiltration and erosion;
and sufficient to provide for the costs related to post -closure requirements.
• Solid Waste Surcharge Reserve: Landfill operators are also required to retain a portion of
user fees for environmental protection, waste reduction, and recycling programs. The Solid
Waste Surcharge Reserve balance in the Landfill Fund is reserved for these uses and is not
accessible for other City projects.
The Landfill will have estimated restricted fund balances of $14.81 million at the end of fiscal
year 2018 in accordance with State laws.
The Landfill Cell Replacement Reserve has one outstanding inter -fund loan as of the end of
fiscal year 2017. The following is a summary of that loan:

The Landfill Cell Replacement Reserve is projected to provide the Public Works Facility project
a $2.5 million internal loan in 2018. Payments are expected to begin in fiscal year 2019.

approximately 97% of the landfill's budgeted revenue. Total revenues are estimated to increase
by 6.46% from fiscal year 2017 due to an increase in landfill usage and the prior year tipping
rate increase.

The Iowa City Landfill and Recycling Center is committed to providing environmentally and
fiscally responsible solid waste, composting, and recycling facilities while working towards
significantly reducing reliance on the Landfill. The Landfill will operate in accordance with all
rules and regulations of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Iowa Department of
Natural Resources.
The Iowa City Landfill and Recycling Center is managed by the Transportation and Resource
Management department. The Landfill serves Johnson County, Kalona and Riverside. Trash is
landfilled according to federal and state regulations to ensure that environmental protection is in
place.
The Iowa Waste Reduction and Recycling Act was legislated in 1989 and banned several items
from Iowa landfills, including yard waste, tires, lead acid batteries, appliances, and oil. This
initiated recycling programs for these items that are still in place today. The Landfill's budget is
organized into five activities:
Landfill Administration
Landfill Administration personnel consists of a 30% cost share of the Transportation &
Resource Management Administration budget, a 1.0 FTE Assistant Superintendent, and
a .50 FTE Customer Service Representative. Administration oversees the operation of:
Landfill Operations
The landfill takes in about 125,000 tons of trash and collects hundreds of groundwater
and stormwater samples to evaluate environmental compliance annually. The landfill
has been at its current location at 3900 Hebl Avenue since 1971. In total, the landfill is
about 400 acres in size; about half which contains buried trash. Remaining land is used
as a buffer for surrounding properties and wetlands.
The Eastside Recycling Center was completed in fiscal year 2012 and is located at 2401
Scott Boulevard. Facilities include an environmental education building, bulk water and
concrete washout stations, and drop-off areas for waste oil and electronic items. The
complex also provides space for the Furniture Project and Salvage Barn.
In an effort to meet the State of Iowa's waste reduction goals, Iowa City has
implemented garbage and recycling programs to encourage waste reduction. These
programs are designed to promote recycling and re -use of materials rather than disposal
of these materials into the City's landfill.
Landfill Replacement Reserve
This activity accounts for funds that are assigned for the replacement of closed landfill
cells. These activities include acquiring land, land improvements, and cell construction.
M1.3
Solid Waste Surcharge Reserve
This activity accounts for the portion of user fees required by state law to be set aside for
environmental protection, waste reduction, and recycling programs.
Landfill Assurance Reserves for Closure and Post -Closure
Assurance Reserves account for state -mandated set -asides for costs associated with
closing the landfill and ongoing maintenance of the closed landfill site in accordance with
Iowa Department of Natural Resources environmental requirements.
HIGHLIGHTS
• Iowa City Community Compost is produced from local yard waste and food waste. The
annual production of nearly 4,000 tons is often "sold out".
• The household hazardous waste facility accepts material from 3,000 households and
small businesses annually, diverting around 65,000 pounds of hazardous waste from the
landfill.
• Landfill recycling programs continue to expand:
o Three drop-off sites collected about 778 tons of materials in FY2016.
o Rummage in the Ramp diverts about 25 tons of waste each year, supporting around
37 local non-profit groups with the proceeds.
o The electronic waste recycling program has been expanded to the East Side
Recycling Center.
Recent Accomplishments:
• Completed capital project that
expanded the landfill gas collection
system and leachate conveyance
system
• Replaced one compactor and one
bulldozer that had exceeded useful
life
• Increased compaction rate by 16%
• Developed fire prevention and
response plan and training for Iowa
City landfill and fire department staff
• Completed installation of new
methane flare
:1 MY]
Upcoming Challenges:
• Replacement and upgrade of aging
operating vehicles and equipment
• Existing facility does not have the
ability to meet storage and space
needs
• Rolling out multiple new programs
in same fiscal year; curbside food
waste and single stream recycling
• Continuing to implement changes
that extend life of landfill cells
• Upcoming design and construction
of next landfill cell
• Developing methods to better utilize
landfill gas
Staffing:
Staffing Level Change Summary:
An Assistant Director of Transportation & Resource Management — Solid Waste was added in
fiscal year 2018. This position is budgeted in the Transportation Administration activity in the
General Fund, and the cost is being allocated through the Administrative Chargeback to the
Refuse Collection Fund and the Landfill Fund.
The allocation of the Recycling Coordinator position from 25% Landfill Operations and 75%
Solid Waste Surcharge Reserve was changed to 0% Landfill Operations and 100% Solid Waste
Surcharge Reserve.
Service Level Change Summary:
The Landfill is requesting to impose a ban on cardboard dumping. This has resulted in the
request to purchase additional cardboard compactors and to impose a tipping fee penalty. The
Landfill has also implemented a ban on electronics dumping. This ban will increase the City's
cost to dispose of these items due to an increase in the number of items being disposed
separately.
The Landfill is also implementing a ban on bringing uncovered/unsecured loads to the Landfill.
A fine is also being proposed to assist with enforcement of this rule. This should reduce the
amount that the Landfill spends to clean up loose debris and trash along the roads leading to
the Landfill.
The Landfill is planning to change to flat fill method for cell management. This includes the
purchase of tarp deployment equipment that could be used for daily cover at the Landfill. The
flat fill method for Landfill Operations is relatively new to the area but has shown a very high
increase in compaction for landfills that have moved to this method. This would extend the life
of the landfill cells, which in turn will delay the need for construction.

Revenue highlights:
An increase in the minimum charge for landfilling materials was added in fiscal year 2018. The

following table summarized the change in minimum fees:
:1 RX
An increase in the fees for processing tires is also included for fiscal year 2018. The current
landfill charge for this service is $.07 per pound, and the City is paying the vender that picks -up,
hauls, and processes the tires $.0925 per pound. The fee is proposed to increase to $0.15 per
pound. This would allow the Landfill to cover its costs for processing as well as its labor for
handling the material.
An increase for electronic waste processing is also included in the fiscal year 2018 budget. The
fee increase is proposed due to an increase in the charges from the vender that processes the
electronic waste. The proposed increase would result in a $2.00 increase to computer monitors
and TV's and a $1.00 increase for small electronics. This would result in the following fees:
• Computer monitor or TV w/ 18" screen or smaller: $12.00 per item
• Computer monitor or TV w/ screen larger than'! 8": $17.00 per item
• Small miscellaneous electronics: $3.00 per item
A new fee is also being added in fiscal year 2018 for bringing uncovered/unsecured loads to the
landfill. This fee includes a warning for the first instance, and a charge of $50.00 for each
additional instance.
Also new in fiscal year 2018 would be an increase in the tipping fee for cardboard if a cardboard
ban is passed by the City Council. For loads that come into the landfill with cardboard, the
customer would be charged two-times the tipping fee for those loads.

Expenditure highlights
Services expenditures in the Landfill Administration increased by $59,380 or 8.38% primarily
due to an increase in the Administrative Chargeback as noted in the Staffing Level Changes
noted above. Services expenditures also increased in the Landfill Operations by 4.76% or
$119,085 due to the cost of a ground water well installation of $30,000, an increase in sewer
utility charges of $84,855, and an increase in litter pick-up and specialty disposal services of
$52,769.
The fiscal year 2018 budget includes $50,000 for the purchase of two new cardboard
compactors from Landfill Operations and $85,000 for the purchase of 1,500 single -stream
recycling carts and 1,000 food waste containers from the Solid Waste Surcharge Reserve. The
fiscal year 2017 revised budget also includes $160,000 for the purchase of 3,000 single -stream
recycling carts and 1,000 food waste containers.
In fiscal year 2018, an internal loan to the Public Works Facility project of $2,500,000 from the
Landfill Cell Replacement Reserves is anticipated. Payments are estimated to begin in fiscal
year 2019.

The Airport Fund accounts for the operations of the municipal airport operations. The Airport
Fund is managed as a business -like operation, however, it is subsidized by the City's General
Fund.
The Airport Fund's fund balance on June 30, 2016 was $572,874, a 6.24% decrease from the
fiscal year 2015 year-end fund balance. The decrease in fund balance was primarily the result
of an increase in capital outlay expenditures.
In fiscal year 2017, fund balance is estimated to decrease by 38.12% to $354,472. This
decrease is due to the purchase of a hangar building from the fixed based operator. In fiscal
year 2018, the fund balance is project to decrease by 22.52% to $274,642. This decrease is a
result of transfers to the Capital Projects Fund of $179,830.
(1) FY17 and FY18 figures are estimates
The Airport Fund retains $100,000 of fund balance that is assigned for capital projects at the
airport.
Revenue:
For fiscal year 2018, 90% of Airport Fund revenue is provided through rentals of airport
property. In addition to the revenue presented in the chart below, the General Fund will provide
a subsidy to the Airport Fund in fiscal year 2018. The General Fund property tax subsidy for
airport operations has been reduced from $13,209 in fiscal year 2017 to $9,687 in fiscal year
2018. There is also a transfer of $100,000 from the General Fund to the Airport Fund to help
fund the airport's capital improvement program.

The Storm Water Management Fund is an enterprise fund that accounts for the activities of the
City's Storm Water Utility.
The Storm Water Management Fund is primarily funded through a monthly Storm Water Utility
Fee of $4.50 per equivalent residential unit (ERU). Rental units pay a monthly fee of $2.25 per
unit. These fees were last increased in fiscal year 2017 by $1.00 per ERU per month and $.50
per rental unit per month.
The Storm Water Management Fund's fund balance on June 30, 2016 was $1,170,823 which
was a 25.54% decrease from the fiscal year 2015. The fiscal year 2017 fund balance is
estimated to decrease 15.07% from fiscal year 2016 to $994,417. These decreases are
primarily due to transfers to the Capital Projects Fund totaling $836,945 in fiscal year 2016 and
$965,000 in fiscal year 2017. Fiscal year 2018 projected fund balance represents a 7.59%
decrease over the fiscal year 2017 estimated year-end balance at $918,984. This is primarily
due to an increase in the transfers out to the Capital Projects Fund.

The Iowa City Storm Water utility exists to provide safe, clean, and healthy waterways for our
community. We do this by using education, outreach, community involvement, volunteers,
capital projects, and enforcing our City's Ordinances that provide for and protect our
watersheds.
When it rains in Iowa City, water passes over roofs, streets, parking lots and other land surfaces
picking up pollutants such as oil, chemicals, pesticides and eroded soil along the way. Any
pollutant that is directed into the storm water drainage system bypasses any treatment and
flows directly into our waterways and to those downstream from us. This creates hazards for
people, wildlife, and the environment. Protecting storm water quality keeps our waterways
healthy and preserves wildlife habitat.
The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) is a federal program that
regulates storm water discharge into waterways. To comply with the federal requirements, the
City of Iowa City received a permit to discharge storm water and develop programs to reduce
the discharge of pollutants carried by storm water into our local waterways.
The local Storm Water Management Program is administered by the Engineering division of the
Public Works Department. Revenue to support its mission is derived from monthly storm water
utility fees collected from local residents and businesses.
HIGHLIGHTS
Recent Accomplishments: Upcoming Challenges:
• Hosted 29 events, where volunteers
logged 2,892 hours of service to clean
up the City's watersheds, waterways,
wetlands, prairies, and other natural
spaces in FY2016.
• The Storm Water Quality Best
Management Practices Program
participated in a total of 23 projects
aimed at improving storm water runoff
water quality throughout the
community, providing approximately
$38,000 toward total combined project
costs.
• Initiated creek repair projects totaling
approximately $50,000 to repair
damaged areas along Willow Creek
and Ralston Creek.
• Completed design and construction of
projects to repair damaged storm
sewer infrastructure at various
locations within the City.
aria
• On-going maintenance and repair of
aging storm water infrastructure.
• On-going maintenance of storm water
detention basins.
• On-going creek maintenance projects.
• Improving the quality of storm water
runoff related to the City's MS4 permit.
• Reviewing and updating the Storm

Areas Management Plan.
Staffing:
Staffing Level Change Summary:
The split of Maintenance Worker positions with the Wastewater Treatment Operations division
has been eliminated. This moves .60 FTE from Storm Water Management to Wastewater
Treatment.
Service Level Change Summary:
There are no service level changes for fiscal year 2018.
Financial Highlights:
Personnel expenditures are budgeted to decrease in fiscal year 2018 by 16.16% or $39,750
primarily due to the elimination of the Maintenance Worker cost share. Services expenditures
also decrease in fiscal year 2018 by $131,144 primarily due to a decrease in consultant
services; fiscal year 2017 included $125,000 for a wetlands management study. Capital outlay
expenditures for fiscal year 2018 are budgeted at $0. This is due to the transfer of the annual
storm water improvements program to the Capital Projects Fund in fiscal year 2017, and these
appropriations are now presented as transfers out.

The Cable Television enterprise fund had accounted for the City's cable television
administration and the City's media production unit through fiscal year 2015. The fund's
activities had been primarily supported by City franchise fees collected by the City's
primary cable television operator, Mediacom. The fund had also accounted for the
equipment replacement activities of the media production unit. The Cable Television
fund's budget had been organized into two activities, Administration and Reserves.
Cable N Administration
Administration oversees Cable office operations, monitors cable franchise agreement
compliance, provides a complaint resolution service for citizens with the local cable
company, monitors the public access service contract compliance, and supports other
local cable television programming channels. Administration also serves as staff for the
Iowa City Telecommunications Commission (ICTC) and conducts special projects such as
research or community surveys. Administration monitors changes in Federal and State
laws and regulations and relevant legal decisions related to cable television.
Cable produces local government and community video programming including local
public meetings and presentations such as the Iowa City City Council and the Iowa City
Foreign Relations Council; balanced political programming such as League of Women
Voters and other NGO forums; informational programming such as City departmental and
community organizational profiles, services, projects, or activities and a wide variety of
local musical performances.
The Cable office also schedules programming on City Channel 4, operates InfoVision
channel 5, an interactive service providing local video programming on demand, and
manages Channel 4's web presence including streaming video.
Cable TV Reserves
Cable TV's annual budget includes transfers to an equipment replacement reserve that is
used to purchase equipment and supplies, including computer hardware and software.
In fiscal year 2016, the Cable Television operations and reserves totaling $1,571,324 were
transferred to the General Fund. The unreserved fund balance of $1,393,720 and the
cable equipment replacement reserves of $177,604 were transferred to the General Fund
and are now incorporated into the General Fund budget.

The Housing Authority Fund is an enterprise fund that accounts for the public housing programs
operated by the Iowa City Housing Authority (ICHA) including the rental assistance programs
and the City -owned public housing units. These programs are primarily funded through Federal
funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
The Housing Authority Fund's total fund balance on June 30, 2016 was approximately
$6,350,911, an increase of $439,210 or 7.43% from the fiscal year 2015 year-end fund balance.
The increase in fiscal year 2016 was primarily due to an increase in the Housing Voucher
administrative fee. At the end of fiscal year 2016, $2,945,146 in fund balance will be restricted
for maintenance and development of Public Housing units and the development of affordable
homeownership opportunities. Fund balance history is as follows:
(1) FY17 and FY18 are estimates
Fiscal year 2017 revised year-end fund balance is expected to increase by 12.52% or $795,285
over the fiscal year 2016 ending balance. Fiscal year 2018 projected fund balance is expected
to increase by 7.29% over the fiscal year 2017 fund balance to $7,667,451. This projected
increase is due to an anticipated, continued increase in federal funding for the Housing Voucher
Program.

To improve quality of life, the Iowa City Housing Authority acts as a community leader for
affordable housing, family self-sufficiency, and homeownership opportunities. We provide
information and education, housing assistance, and public and private partnership opportunities.
The Housing Authority is in the Neighborhood and Development Services Department and was
established in 1969 to administer housing assistance programs throughout its jurisdiction,
including all of Johnson County, Iowa County and portions of Washington County. Annually, the
Housing Authority assists approximately 1,350 low-income families to acquire and maintain
affordable housing through rental and ownership programs. Rental assistance includes the
Housing Choice Voucher/Section 8 (HCV), Public Housing, and Veterans' Supportive Housing
(VASH) Programs. Homeownership opportunities exist under the Affordable Dream
Homeownership Program (ADHOP), and the HCV Homeownership Program. Participation in all
programs requires the families meet federally established income guidelines.
The Housing Authority's budget is organized into three activities: Administration, Voucher
Programs, and Public Housing. The division also manages Peninsula Apartments; a description
of this activity may be found in the Special Revenue Fund section of this document.
Housing Authority Administration
Housing Authority Administration personnel manage all of the housing programs. These
expenditures are fully allocated to the Voucher and Public Housing programs.
Voucher Programs
The Housing Authority works with over 400 owners/ landlords and administers 1298
HCV and VASH vouchers. These Owners/landlords receive approximately $6.8
million/year in rental subsidy paid on behalf of Housing Authority participants.
Public Housing
The City of Iowa City owns 81 public housing units; the Housing Authority serves as the
landlord and rents these units to eligible tenants. They are low-density units scattered
throughout Iowa City and were constructed to conform and blend into the existing
neighborhood architecture.
HIGHLIGHTS
• The Housing Choice Voucher Program paid approximately $6.8 million in Housing
Assistance Payments to landlords/owners of rental properties in Johnson County in fiscal
year 2016.
• The Housing Authority paid over $250,000 to private sector Iowa City contractors for the
capital improvement, general maintenance, and repair of Public Housing properties in fiscal
year 2016.
• Since 1998, 177 families have moved to homeownership with assistance from the Housing
Authority (TOP/ADHOP, HCV Homeownership, FSS Program, Down payment Assistance,
and UniverCity).
Recent Accomplishments:

CAPITAL PROJECTS FUND
The Capital Projects Fund accounts for the collection and disbursement of funds related
to capital improvements or significant capital equipment. The City annually updates and
issues a five-year capital improvement program (CIP). This program is the planning
guide for the City's issuance of bonded debt and for the construction and replacement of
the City's buildings and infrastructure. The first two years of the five-year capital
improvement program (CIP) are certified as part of the operating budget in the Capital
Projects Fund. The current five-year CIP is for years 2017-2021.
Capital improvement projects involve the construction, purchase, or renovation of city
facilities or property. They are generally non-recurring major improvements to the City's
physical plant, are permanent in nature, and are greater than $25,000 and have a useful
life of three years or more. Funding sources for capital improvement projects may be
from operating funds, bond proceeds, grants, donations, and a variety of other funding
sources. The three largest sources of funds are operating transfers in, bonded debt, and
state and federal grants.
For the CIP for years 2017-2021, the total funding sources are $162,069,533, and the
total expenditures are $171,912,855. The difference between the total expenditures and
the total funding sources over the five-year period is a result of funding sources that
were derived during prior years.
The 2018 CIP expenditures of $41,051,166 will be certified as part of the 2018 operating
budget. Budgeted fiscal year 2018 Capital Projects Fund expenditures also include
$164,640 of interest expense payments to the Wastewater Treatment Fund. Total
Capital Projects Fund fiscal year 2018 budgeted expenditures are $41,215,806.
The 2018 CIP funding sources of $34,373,584 will also be certified as part of the 2018
operating budget. Budgeted fiscal year 2018 Capital Projects Fund revenues and
transfers in also include State sales tax grant funding of $389,640 and a transfer in from
the TIF funds to reimburse for prior year expenditures of $27,723. Total Capital Projects
Fund fiscal year 2018 budgeted revenues and transfer in are $34,790,947.
The changes to the 2017 CIP are amended into the fiscal year 2017 operating budget.
The fiscal year 2017 Capital Projects Fund expenditure budget also includes totals from
the carry forward of prior year projects that must be re -appropriated with the State. The
amounts being carried forward from prior years are not included in the five-year CIP
totals. The revised Capital Projects Fund expenditures for fiscal year 2017 are
$93,530,889; the revised budget includes the 2017 CIP expenditures of $52,965,694,
prior year project carry forwards of $40,399,497, and internal loan interest payments of
$165,698.
:1 RYA
The revised fiscal year 2017 Capital Projects Fund revenues and transfers in budget
also includes totals from the carry forward of prior year projects. The amounts being
carried forward from prior years are not included in the five-year CIP totals. The revised
Capital Projects Fund revenues and transfers in for fiscal year 2017 are $68,903,182;
the revised budget includes the 2017 CIP funding sources of $49,449,954, State sales
tax grant funding of $390,698, a transfer in from the TIF funds to reimburse for prior year
expenditures of $31,324, and prior year project carry forwards of $19,031,206.
In fiscal year 2015, the North Treatment Plant Removal project received a 20 -year
internal loan from the Wastewater Treatment Fund which is being repaid with a State of
Iowa sales tax grant. The Capital Projects Fund's expenditures include interest expense
paid to the Wastewater Treatment Fund of $165,698, $164,640, and $162,885 for years
2017, 2018, and 2019, respectively. The Capital Project Fund budget also includes
principal repayments, shown as transfers out, budgeted at $225,000 each year for 2017,
2018, and 2019, and state sales tax grant revenues budgeted at $390,698, $389,640,
and $387,885 for years 2017, 2018, and 2019, respectively. These amounts are not
reflected in the five-year CIP totals.
Fund balance in the Capital Projects Fund primarily represents unspent funding sources
from the current year and prior years. This balance fluctuates based on the timing of the
issuance of bonds and the timing of the project expenditures. The estimated ending
fund balance for fiscal year 2018 is $763,704.

Description Total Project Cost: $425,000 Status Active
Develop a response and action plan to mitigate and manage the impact of the inevitable Emerald Ash Borer infestation. The average cost of removal is $800 per
tree; the average cost of replanting is $400 per tree. There is approximately 2,000 Ash trees for a total of $2.4 million for removal and replanting over a 15 year
time snap. $100.000 will remove and replant approximately 83 trees.
(In June of 2014 EAB was detected in Iowa Clty and although an infestation has not been determined it is deamed to be inevitable due to EAB confirmations in
neighboring counties such as Cedar and Muscatine. The City of Iowa City is responsible for approximately 2,000 Ash trees and curently does not have a funding
source specified for EAB. This will afford the ability to identify, inventory, remove, replace and retain (as much as possible) the City's Asb population. Currently
there is no state funding source available to aid municipalities with managing the impact firm EAB. HieForestry division currently does not have the labor force or
resources to effectively and safety manure an EAB infestation.

The 2014 AOA survey of the Robert A. Lee Recreation Center lacdity indicated a number of code issues, including restroom and locker room accommodations,
handrails, interior space issues, signage and furnishings. This project would bring the facility up to current ADA, mechanical and plumbing codes, and modernize
the 1960 design to current public needs and enhance operational efficiencies. The project will also address the two level multiple entry problems and involve
remodeling the second level to address ADA code matters with offices and workspaces. A large pail of the work would also involve replacing the corroded cast
iron nlumbine systems from the boiler room to the locker rooms and restrooms.
Justification
The Robert A. Lee Recreation Center ism old and heavily used facility providing citizens with a wide range of health and leisure activities. This project will
enhance the divisions service delivery to our citizens and improve the overall aesthetics of the facility. The ADA updates and mechanical updates are a critical need

This project involves the construction of a new transit and equipment facility for maintenance operations and storage. As part of this project, the storage area will
be expanded allowing form increase in fleet size and the maintenance facility will be upgraded. The relocation will address the environmental issues that exist at
the current facilisites and allow for the redevelo ment of a ma or commercial site at the corner of Hi hwa 6 and Riverside Drive.
Justification
These facilities have outlived their useful life and are in need of replacement. The facilites have structural issues from the surrounding area, and a new facility will
improve the delivery of service. The two facilities would be consolidated into one to create better utilization of space and would be more cost effective. ALTA

EQUIPMENT FUND
The Equipment Fund is an internal service fund created to account for the City's fuel facility,
maintenance of the City's vehicle and equipment fleet, and the accumulation of funds for the
replacement of vehicles and equipment.
Internal customers and departments and other local governments are charged labor and parts
for the cost to repair vehicles and equipment by the City's fleet maintenance division. Those
charges are designed to cover the division's actual cost of service. Fuel has also been charged
at actual cost, however, starting in fiscal year 2015 a fuel surcharge was added to accumulate
savings for the future replacement of the new fuel facility. These funds are reported in the
replacement reserve designated fund balance.
The Equipment Fund also charges departments for the replacement cost of their vehicles and
equipment. These charges are calculated at the estimated replacement cost less the estimated
resale value of the piece of equipment. Purchases of new vehicles and equipment are
budgeted in the departmental budgets. When new equipment is added, the departments are
then charged by the reserve for their future replacement.
The graph below represents the Equipment Fund's actual and projected fund balances. The
Equipment Fund's total fund balance has been trending upward primarily due to the
accumulation of replacement reserves. In fiscal year 2016, the operations and the replacement
reserves were adjusted to 'fully fund' the replacement program. This caused a one-time
adjustment of $2,654,484 between the unassigned and the designated fund balance. In fiscal
year 2018, a transfer of $1,100,000 of unassigned cash is budgeted to the Capital Projects
Fund for the relocation of the vehicle wash bay to the new public works facility location. Due to
this transfer, the Equipment Fund's unassigned fund balance decreases in fiscal year 2018 by
$849,122. Total fund balance continues to trend upward, however, with approximately
$12,470,405 in fiscal year 2018, an increase of 3.86% over fiscal year 2017.

The table below presents the actual and projected number and cost of vehicles and equipment
replaced:
In fiscal year 2013, the City's fuel facility was replaced with a new fuel facility at the site of the
future public works facility on South Gilbert Street. The fuel facility replacement was funded
from General Obligation bonds and Equipment Fund cash balance. Subsequently, fuel charges
have been adjusted to accumulate funds for the future replacement of the facility.
The relocation of the remaining equipment maintenance and storage facilities to the new public
works facility location is included as part of the five-year capital improvement program. The
relocation of the vehicle wash bay to the new public works facility site is programmed for 2018 in
the capital improvement program at an estimated cost of $1,100,000 with the remaining
equipment maintenance facilities to be relocated in 2021.

The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction
of assets; workplace accidents, errors and omissions; and natural disasters. During fiscal year
1988, the City established the Loss Reserve Fund, an internal service fund, to account for and
finance its uninsured risks of loss. Funds pay annual premiums to the Loss Reserve Fund
based on actuarial estimates of the amounts needed to pay prior and current -year claims and to
establish a reserve for catastrophic losses. Accumulated monies in the Loss Reserve Fund are
available to cover the self-insured retention amounts and any uninsured losses.
For the year ending June 30, 2017 the City purchased property, liability, and workers'
compensation insurance under the program that provides for a $100,000 self-insured retention
per occurrence on property losses, a $500,000 self-insured retention per occurrence on liability,
and a $500,000 self-insured retention on workers' compensation losses. Liability insurance
provides coverage for claims in excess of the aforementioned self-insured retention up to a
maximum of $21.0 million annual aggregate of losses paid. Settled claims have not exceeded
this commercial coverage in any of the past twenty four fiscal years.
The Housing Authority Fund is insured under a separate policy with the Assisted Housing Risk
Management Association. The remaining funds participate in the Loss Reserve Fund.
The fiscal year 2017 revised fund balance is $3,465,361 million which is 1.50% higher than the
fiscal year 2016 ending fund balance. The budgeted ending fund balance for fiscal year 2018 is
$3,594,234, which is higher than the 2017 revised fund balance by 3.72%. The fund balance is
expected to remain stable or slightly increase over the next two years.

The Information Technology Services (ITS) fund is an internal service fund that accounts for the
cost of providing computer and computer related services to the City's departments. Those
services include personal computer support and replacement, network and internet support,
fiber optic networking, file server management, telephone administration and support, and
computer programming and application support. In fiscal year 2016, support services for the
Geographical Information System (GIS) software and hardware was added.
Internal customers are charged annual service fees depending on the number of devices they
use, how many users they have, how many phone sets they have, how much storage they use,
and other factors. Internal customers are also responsible for budgeting funds for new
computer equipment, however, internal service charges are then charged by the ITS fund for
the service and replacement of that equipment. For equipment greater than $5,000, a
replacement fund is also maintained to fund the replacement of the more expensive pieces of
equipment.
The ITS fund has an estimated ending fund balance of $2,058,938 at June 30, 2017. This is a
decrease of $457,784 or 18.2% from fiscal year 2016. This decline is due to a transfer to the
Capital Projects Fund for the replacement of the City's phone system. Fund balance is expected
to increase in fiscal year 2018 by $53,088 or 2.58% to $2,112,026. In 2016, the reserve for
replacement was re -designed to restrict funds to replace computer equipment that costs more
than $5,000. The estimated fund balance restricted for this purpose is $604,591 in fiscal year
2017 and $605,243 and fiscal year 2018.

The Central Services internal service fund provides services to internal clients/staff and
other local governments in the following areas:
• Mailroom processing of outgoing City Mail, UPS, and Fed -Ex
• Assists with the procurement of City copiers and maintenance contracts.
• Assists with the City's Radio System maintenance contracts
The cost of these services is recovered through service charges to the internal clients and
to other local governments for the services that they consume. Funds are also retained for
the replacement of copy machines on a regularly scheduled basis.
Internal service fund charges are budgeted at $234,991 in fiscal year 2018, and they make
up 98.3% of the fund's revenue. Budgeted internal service charge revenue is a decrease
of 12% from fiscal year 2017 budgeted revenue of $267,124 primarily due to a decrease in
radio system expenditures. Total fiscal year 2018 budgeted revenue is $239,151.
The Central Services fund has an estimated ending fiscal year 2017 fund balance of
$685,699. This was an increase of 2.70% from fiscal year 2016. The fiscal year 2018
estimated ending fund balance is $662,687 which is a decrease of 3.36% from fiscal year
2017.

commissions, committees and boards. The City Attorney also reviews and approves
proposed City ordinances, resolutions, contracts, and other legal documents; oversees
property acquisition needed for public improvements; prepares legal opinions for Council
and City staff; and represents the City in litigation in which the City is involved, including
violations of City ordinances.

Iowa City's economy has fared
better than the state as a
whole during the economic
downturn. While Iowa City's
unemployment rate has
returned to pre -2008 levels, it
continues to remain well below
state and national levels. As of
March 2016, the Iowa City
Metropolitan Statistical Area
(MSA) was tied for the sixth
lowest unemployment rate of
all MSAs nationally.
(Source: Bureau of Labor
Statistics)
The growth in
assessed property
value has slowed in
recent years. The
effect of this slow
growth on taxable
value has been
offset by increases
in the state -
mandated "rollback";
a higher percentage
of residential
properties' value is
taxable.

The State of Iowa limits the
portion of a property's value that
is taxable, known as the
assessment limitation order or
"rollback". This system is
intended to limit the amount
taxable value can increase in
any one year. Taxable value can
differ by property class (e.g.
residential, commercial,
agricultural, and industrial); for
City revenue streams, this most
notably affects the taxable value
of residential properties.
The portion of residential properties' assessed value that is taxable hit a low point in FY09, when forty-
four percent of residential property values were taxable. This percentage has increased steadily for
seven consecutive years and remanded constant over the last year. However, this has coincided with
slower assessed value growth and an Iowa Supreme Court decision allowing some apartment
complexes previously taxed as commercial properties to reorganize as residential cooperatives.
Currently, ninety percent of a commercial property's assessed value is taxable, meaning that as
apartment complexes are reclassified as residential, the revenue the City realizes in property taxes
from these complexes drops by approximately half. As Iowa City has more multi -unit apartment
buildings per capita than elsewhere in the state, this decision disproportionately affects Iowa City's tax
base.

Building Permits
Value in millions
One measure of local
economic health is
hotel/motel tax receipts.
The City uses hotel/motel
tax receipts to augment
funds for public safety,
parks & recreation services,
and the Convention &
Visitors Bureau. Generating
revenue from non -Iowa City
residents reduces the tax
burden on residents. After a
dip in revenue during
FY2010, hotel/motel tax
receipts are above pre -
recession levels and have
increased over each of the
last five fiscal years.
Though the value of building
permits issued has declined in
recent years, the values rebounded
significantly from 2009 through
2011. Total value in 2013 was the
highest of any year in the past ten
years. Through April there has
been 240 permits and $115 million
value in 2016.

In 2009, the State of Iowa enacted legislation
establishing cities' right to impose a franchise
tax on gas and electric utilities. On February
16, 2010, the Iowa City City Council passed
and approved an ordinance establishing a one
percent (1 %) tax. Of the $902,000 for FY2015,
$609,000 funded a portion of the operational
costs associated with Fire Station #4 and
maintenance of the right-of-ways.
The Iowa City property tax levy
comprised approximately forty-two and
nine -tenths percent of City residents' total
property tax bill. The Iowa City
Community School District and Johnson
County make up another thirty-five and
seven -tenths percent and eighteen and
seven -tenths percent of the total levy,
respectively.
*Includes Johnson County, the City of Iowa City
Assessor, and Agricultural Extension levies.

FY2015
contributions were
flat with an increase
of two-tenths of a
percent (0.2%) from
FY2014.
Expenditures for
FY2012 were
approximately a
thirty percent
increase over
FY2011, partially
attributable to an
extra pay period in
FY2012.
Pension contributions increased again in FY2014 with over a thirteen percent increase over FY2013,
with public safety pension contributions increasing to thirty and twelve -hundredths percent (30.12%) of
salary (an increase of more than fifteen percent) and I PERS contributions increasing to eight and
ninety -three -hundredths percent (8.93%) (an increase of three percent). Also, the public safety pension
contribution rate increased in FY2015 to thirty and forty -one -hundredths percent (30.41 %) of salary (an
additional increase of one percent). In FY2016 the public safety pension contributions decreased to
twenty-seven and seventy -seven -hundredths percent (27.77%) and is expected to decrease again in
FY2017 to twenty-five and ninety -two -hundredths percent (25.92%) of salary, which are decreases of
eight and seven -tenths (8.7%) and six and seven -tenths (6.7%), respectively.

Property taxes comprise over half of General Fund revenue. This reliance on property tax revenue
could become problematic if the state ceases the "backfill' from commercial property tax reform that
started to effect the FY2015 taxable valuations. City staff will continue to monitor service and staffing
levels, appropriate user fees, and attempt to identify additional ways to diversify revenue sources in
order to plan for possible significant drops in property tax revenue.

Debt as a percent of the allowable
debt limit has also continued to fall
in recent years. The State of Iowa
mandates that outstanding
General Obligation debt not
exceed five percent (5%) of the
total assessed value of taxable
properties in the municipality. Iowa
City outstanding General
Obligation debt is approximately
one and three -tenths percent
(1.3%) of assessed value, or
approximately one-fourth of the
allowable debt margin.
Total outstanding
General Obligation debt
is estimated to dropped
almost twenty-two and a
half (22.5) million
between FY2011 and
FY2016. Due to
unusually low interest
rates and the City's
strong bond rating, the
municipal bond market
continues to be in the
City's favor.

2017 Iowa City Police Department Statistics
Why We Exist: The mission of the Iowa City Police Department is to protect the rights of all
persons within its jurisdiction to be free from crime, to be secure in their possessions, and to
live in peace. By pursuing the goals of education, prevention and enforcement, it is the
primary objective of the Iowa City Police Department to pursue the ideal of a community free
from crime and disorder in a fair, responsive, collaborative and professional manner.
General Police Data Discrepancies
Performing a comparative analysis between local jurisdictions is an imperfect process. Data are
influenced by differences in definitions, reporting, and collection measures. It must be noted
that it is important to focus on the trends in the data rather than any one specific data point
between communities. While measures have been taken to universalize and standardize the
data, the trend in the data is the most valuable information provided.
Data & Comparison
The data presented below represent the raw data collected by the Iowa City Police Department
and information gathered from the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Data synthesis was based
on the 2010 US Census population. Metro Coalition comparison uses 2014 data. The
comparison uses the UCR system, which is described below.
UNIVERSAL CRIME REPORTING (UCR 1)
Crimes can be reported in various ways. The UCR system has been a standard used by police
departments across the United States and is utilized by the State of Iowa as a means of
reporting data. UCR1 data specifically refers to two groups of crimes: UCR 1 Property Crimes
and UCR 1 Violent Crimes. The following crimes are represented in these two groups:
UCR 1 Property Crimes
Arson
Burglary
Larceny
Shoplifting
All forms of theft
UCR 1 Violent Crimes
Murder/Non-Negligent Manslaughter
Forcible Rape
Robbery
Aggravated Assault
While more crimes exist, these crimes are utilized to provide an overview of workload and
highlight serious crimes in a community. Even with universal reporting, actual reporting of
crimes may vary between communities.

2017 Iowa City Fire Department Statistics
Why We Exist: The mission of the Iowa City Fire Department is to protect our community by
providing progressive, high quality emergency and preventive services.
General Fire Data
Performing a comparative analysis between local jurisdictions is an imperfect process. Data is
influenced by differences in definitions, reporting, and collection measures. It must be noted that
it is important to focus on the trends in the data rather than any one specific data point, the trend
in the data is the most valuable information provided.
Broadly speaking, the physical, political, and demographic characteristics of each reporting
jurisdiction influence performance. Examples include unusually good or bad weather, major
budget cuts, and median household income. Citizen preferences, council or board priorities,
local tax resources, and state -imposed spending limits cause additional variation in the
resources available for providing fire and EMS services.
More specifically, some of the factors that influence the comparability of fire and EMS data are:
Building stock—Industrial structures are more likely to be involved in fire or hazardous
materials events. Older structures are less likely to meet current fire codes or to be equipped
with fire detection and suppression systems. High-rise structures may pose additional
challenges.
Geography—Street layout, terrain, the fire/EMS station locations, and traffic flow can
significantly impact the ability for one jurisdiction to achieve the same level of service as
another.
Staffing—Jurisdictions can vary in the numbers assigned per fire apparatus, the minimum
scheduled to work each day, the percentage of sworn vs. civilian staff, and the percentage of
volunteers.
5&9=—Jurisdictions have varying levels of EMT -medical services offered by fire departments.
The three levels are first responder, paramedic provisional and full paramedic EMS. Cost of
service may vary depending on the degree to which different departments perform EMS
services.

2017 Iowa City Public Library Statistics
Why We Exist: The Iowa City Public Library is a center of community life that connects
people of all ages with information, engages them with the world of ideas and with each
other, and enriches the community by supporting learning, promoting literacy, and
encouraging creativity.
The Library values and is committed to: access, collaboration, community, enjoyment,
intellectual freedom, and literacy.
General Library Data Discrepancies
Performing a comparative analysis between local jurisdictions is an imperfect process. Data are
influenced by differences in definitions, reporting, and collection measures. It must be noted that
it is important to focus on the trends in the data between communities rather than any one
specific data point. While measures have been taken to universalize and standardize the data,
the trend in the data is the most valuable information provided.
More specifically, some of the factors that influence the comparability of Library data are:
• Nonresident borrower ratio: The ratio of resident to nonresident borrowers can influence
funding for materials acquisition and program planning. Generally, jurisdictions are more
inclined to fund materials and programming for their own residents.
• Some variation in the number of borrowers may be attributed to the frequency with which
jurisdictions purge their borrower records. All other conditions being equal, jurisdictions
that purge records frequently tend to report fewer registered borrowers than jurisdictions
that purge infrequently.
• Because some jurisdictions provide library services to neighboring jurisdictions by
means of contract or other official agreement, the size of the service area may be larger
than the population of the jurisdiction.
• Variations in library expenditures may be attributed to differences in the number of
library facilities, the hours of operation, and the size and scope of holdings and
programs.
• Also possibly influencing expenditure levels is citizen demand for library services;
traditional library services such as book loans and reference assistance as well as less
traditional library -based services such as Internet access, adult literacy programs, and
more.
• Some differences in the number of items circulated during the reporting period may be
attributed to the size of a jurisdiction's library collection and the proportion of the
collection that circulates outside the library. For example, an increasing number of
jurisdictions offer access (both in -library and remote) to substantial electronic holdings
that do not circulate outside the library per se and, therefore, may not be reflected in
circulation statistics.

The Metropolitan Coalition is an organization comprised of Iowa's largest communities. FY2O15
data, as reported to the State Library of Iowa, are used. Per capita metrics are based on the
population of each city's jurisdiction, not the service area of the library. While not all Metro
Coalition cities' data are presented, all five cities' data are included in the 'average without Iowa
City' calculations. For this report populations used is the city population and does not include
contract areas which, for Iowa City, include rural Johnson County, Hills, University Heights and
Lone Tree.

Selected National Library Comparison
The charts below present data from selected public libraries. Data were compiled by the
Institute of Museum and Library Services. Fiscal year 2013 reported data are used, the most
recent available for comparison libraries. Libraries were selected based on their similarities to
ICPL services and their cities' similarities to Iowa City.
*Population includes residents for each library's entire service area, including contracting cities and
proportional representations of rural county populations. For instance, the population used for Iowa City
includes a portion of rural county residents, Hills, and University Heights. This is important to help
standardize data.

From the inception of the Center in 1981 until 2003, the City and the County maintained a 28E
agreement that split operational costs 80% to 20%. County funding of the Center peaked at
$141,410 in FY2002. In 2003 the County withdrew from this agreement; by FY2004 County
funding of the Center dropped to $75,000 annually. In FY2012, the City was asked to submit an
Economic Development/Quality of Life Block Grant application to Johnson County in order to
receive funding. For FY2012 and FY2013 this grant amount was $70,000. In FY2014 and
FY2015, the grant amount has been $59,224. It is important to note that approximately half of
County property tax receipts which support the Center grant come from Iowa City taxpayers.

The Center's goal is for revenue from sources other than Iowa City property taxes to support
25% of the Center's budget. This goal of 25% includes but is not limited to: intergovernmental
grants, membership & program fees, contributions & donations, parking permit sales, and rental
fees. This calculation is based on the general revenues subsidy divided by the total
expenditures and transfer in General Fund (1000 only).

Attendance to Senior Center programs increased 3.7% but total attendance was down slightly in
FY2015 by about 1 % from FY2014 due to lower attendance numbers for meals served at the
Center.
Meal service is administered by Elder Services. Other services include programs and services
provided by outside agencies, like the Visiting Nurse Association, Rotary, and rentals. ' The tax
filing assistance numbers prior to FY2014 are included in other services. Due to a change in
software these numbers are now accounted for in Center Visits.

Glossary
GLOSSARY
Agency Funds: One of four types of fiduciary funds. Agency funds are used to report resources
held by the reporting government in a purely custodial capacity (assets = liabilities).
Agency funds typically involve only the receipt, temporary investment, and remittance of
fiduciary resources to individuals, private organizations, or other governments.
Activity: The organizational subdivision of a division.
Actual Valuation: The estimated actual value placed upon real and personal property by the City
Assessor as the basis for levying property taxes.
Assigned Fund Balance: The portion of the net position of a governmental fund that represents
resources set aside by the government for a particular purpose.
Bonded Debt: A written promise to pay a specified sum of money at a future date along with
periodic interest. Proceeds from bonds are typically used for long-term debt to pay for
construction of capital projects.
Bond Rating: Each bond issue has a rating assigned to it by an independent bond rating
company. The rating is based on the City's financial condition and has an impact on the
bond bids and interest rates the City will pay on the bonds over their lifetime. The City's
bond rating agency is Moody's Investors Service.
Budget: A financial plan for a specific time period that estimates the expenditures and the
means of financing those expenditures which are associated with all services and functions
performed by the City.
Budgetary Basis: The basis of accounting that the City uses to prepare, present, and monitor its
adopted budget. The City uses an adjusted the Modified Accrual Basis of accounting as its
budget basis. The modified accrual basis of accounting used in the preparation of budget
is similar to the accounting basis used in the City's Comprehensive Annual Financial
Report (CAFR) for the governmental funds, except for the treatment of interfund loans,
loan repayments, and same fund transfers.
Capital Improvements Program (CIP): A management tool used to assist in the scheduling,
planning, and execution of a series of capital improvements over a five-year period. The
CIP is prepared to cover a five-year period but is updated annually. It sets forth the
estimated expenditures by year and specifies the resources estimated to be available to
finance the project expenditures.
Capital Improvements Projects: The specific projects that make up the Capital Improvements
Program. The projects involve construction, purchase, or renovation of city facilities or
property. They are generally non-recurring major improvements to the City's physical plant
which necessitate long-term financing and are permanent in nature. A capital
improvement project is the improvement of land, buildings, or infrastructure and related
expenditures that is greater than $25,000 and has a useful life of three years or more.
xx3
Capital Outlay: Expenditures for fixed assets, such as equipment, remodeling, minor building
improvements, and vehicles, that are funded from the operating budget and are at least
$5,000. Since long-term financing is not necessary and expenditures of this type are of
such recurring character, these items are not part of the Capital Improvements Program.
Cash Basis: A basis of accounting in which transactions are recognized only when cash is
increased or decreased. Or, a basis of accounting in which transactions are recorded
when cash is expended or received for goods and services which are sold. This was the
City's budgetary basis of accounting through fiscal year 2012.
Committed Fund Balance: Self-imposed limitation imposed at highest level of decision making
that requires formal action at the same level to remove.
Commodities: Items or supplies needed for routine maintenance and operations. They include
cleaning, maintenance and office supplies, repair materials, minor equipment, and tools.
Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR): This is the annual audited financial
statements of the City compiled in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles.
Contingency: Funds set aside, but not appropriated or approved for use. These funds could be
used for unanticipated expenditure requirements, new programs, or to absorb unexpected
revenue losses.
Contractual Service: Services such as utilities, postage, printing, employee travel, repairs and rentals,
which are purchased from private contractors.
Debt Limit: Debt incurred as a general obligation of the City shall not exceed statutory limits:
presently 5% of the total assessed value of property within the corporate limits as
established by the City Assessor.
Debt Service: Payment of principal and interest to holders of the City debt instruments.
Deficit: Excess of an entity's liabilities over its assets (a negative fund balance). The term may also be
used to describe a situation where expenditures exceed revenues.
Department: A major organizational unit in the City comprised of related work activities aimed at
accomplishing a major service or regulatory program.
Division: The organizational subdivision of a department.
Employee Benefits: Contributions made by the City to designated funds to meet commitments or
obligations for employee fringe benefits. Included are the City's share of costs for Social
Security, Iowa Retirement System, and the other pension, medical, and life insurance
plans.
VY,I
