Early Direction for the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Budget <br />March 19, 2024 <br />Page 11 <br />4 <br />1 <br />3 <br />1 <br />Staff expects to propose a balanced budget for FY 2024-25, which may result in reduced <br />spending for one or more of the programs listed above. Staff welcomes City Council input <br />regarding programs that should be considered for reduction. <br />Opioid Settlement Money <br />To date, the City has received $1.75 million of opioid settlement money. The City has also <br />received an invoice for attorney’s fees of $248,208 to be paid from the settlement money, <br />and the City used $1 million of this money to help purchase the Carnegie Shelter, leaving <br />a balance of $0.5 million. The City will continue to receive settlement payments of at least <br />$400,000 annually through 2039. The money is highly restricted to specific opioid-related <br />expenditures. <br />Currently, staff is planning to purchase naloxone for first responders to use and distribute <br />once the state no longer provides it to local government for free. The City’s Homeless <br />Services Division Manager has indicated that we have a need for securing beds at <br />College Hospital or Phoenix House for homeless individuals who want to detoxify from <br />Li brary Book Mobil e 135,360 <br />Li brary Di gital Subscri pti ons & Conte nt 174,540 <br />Li brary Hotspots and Chromebooks Data Pl ans 295,460 <br />Li brary Li brary Staf fi ng & Support 271,110 <br />Li brary Li brary Youth Programs/Eve nts 98,530 <br />Re cre ati on Recre ati on & Zoo Staff ing & Support 2,031,620 <br />Re cre ati on Zoo and You 114,880 <br />Re cre ati on Zoo Nature Ce nter 70,610 <br />Re cre ati on Aquatics 102,280 <br />Re cre ati on Aquatics Mai ntenance 40,000 <br />Re cre ati on Teen Excursi ons 62,510 <br />Re cre ati on Recre ati on Mobi l e 8,750 <br />Re cre ati on Recre ati on Events 5,350 <br />Re cre ati on Recre ati on Youth Programs 29,050 <br />Re cre ati on Internshi p Program Wage s & Support 742,360 <br />CAO Ci ty Attorney Staffing & Support 253,080 <br />CAO Legal Service s Contracts 300,000 <br />PBA Code Enforceme nt Staffing & Support 1,172,520 <br />PBA Code Enforceme nt Equi p/Supply 18,000 <br />Pol i ce Pol ice Staff ing & Support 2,359,350 <br />Pol i ce Evi de nce Warehouse 132,400 <br />Pol i ce Body Worn Came ra Program (ye ar 2 of 5)1,029,150 <br />Fi nance Fi nance Col lecti ons Staffi ng & Support 107,440 <br />Fi nance Cannabis Audi ti ng Contracts 255,550 <br />Total Expe nditures - Ori gi nal Budget 9,809,900
