<br />The agenda item regarding hearing a report from David Hughes with Robinson,
<br />
<br />Farmer and Cox on the FY08 Audit Report was tabled until the February 24,2009
<br />
<br />meeting.
<br />
<br />Linda Conover, Budget Analyst, presented the following report regarding the
<br />
<br />monthly financial report:
<br />
<br />Through the end of December 2008, Fiscal Year 2009, our revenues exceeded the anticipated budget by $893,992.
<br />Two of the major funds, Sewer and Electric, fell slightly short of their anticipated goals at this time by $137,090 and $106,120
<br />respectively. Due to the recent colder weather the utility billings and receipts will most likely increase over the next month or
<br />so. The Meals Tax revenue also fell slightly short of the anticipated goal by $29,806 due to the closing of a vendor in late
<br />summer, and the collection issue with said vendor. This should be resolved in the coming months.
<br />Overall expenditures were $1,302,332 less than anticipated through the end of December. The only fund to deviate
<br />from its anticipated budget was the Water Fund, which expended slightly more than anticipated by $17,162. Continuing efforts
<br />by all departments to be conservative in their purchasing practices is reflected in the lower than anticipated expenditures.
<br />The overall fund balance decreased slightly by $152,074 through the end of the second quarter of the fiscal year,
<br />bringing our total combined fund balances to $15,564,994. This decrease is less than 1% (.97) of Fiscal Year 2008's total fund
<br />balances of $15,717,069. Some of the decrease can be attributed to reimbursements yet to be received from state and federal
<br />programs.
<br />After some discussion regarding meals tax, sales tax, and water fund, Council
<br />
<br />approved with a 5-0 vote, the finance report with a motion by Gene Teague, seconded
<br />
<br />by Kimble Reynolds.
<br />
<br />On a motion by Gene Teague, seconded by Mark Stroud, Council approved the
