PASSION. PROSPERITY Agenda Item No. 10D1. City Council Agenda Summary Sheet Consider a resolution approving funding of certain capital projects from the General Self - Agenda Caption: Financed Construction Fund. Meeting Date: October 28, 2010 Department: Finance Staff Person making presentation: Cheryl Delaney Finance Director Item Summary: This resolution approves a list of priority projects for the City's Self -financed Construction Fund - 2011 Capital Spending Plan. The funding sources for this plan are the FY 2010 budgeted and year-end transfers from the General Fund included in the FY 2010 operating budget. As in previous years, this process continues the City's financial strategy of allocating cash funding for projects for which the City would normally issue debt. This strategy has reduced the need to borrow funds while allowing the City to continue to keep up with the growth demand. This strategy has been in place since 1999, during this time it has saved the taxpayers of Round Rock at least 10 cents on the property tax rate by avoiding the issuance of debt. Also included is a list of existing projects currently in progress and previously approved through prior year capital spending plans. Since 1999, the City has funded over $49.5 million in projects. Funding projects in this manner continues with the City's financial policies of strategically funding priority projects with available cash while minimizing the need to issue additional debt. Strategic Plan Relevance: 8.0 — Maintain and enhance public confidence, satisfaction and trust in City Government Cost: N/A Source of Funds: General Self -Finance Construction Date of Public Hearing (if required): N/A Recommended Action: Approval
