DISCUSSION The 2009-10 fiscal year budget fulfills the City's purpose of providing quality service to enhance the safety, livability and prosperity of our community. In addition, this budget emphasizes four City Council focused priorities: enhance public safety, improve transportation infrastructure, address minor deferred maintenance projects in parks, and ensure the City's long-term financial stability. As a result of the global financial crisis and its impact on local and state resources, ensuring the City's long-term financial stability has become even more important. The proposed budget has been developed to move Santa Ana closer to such stability, while maintaining core programs and services to the extent possible. The total annual proposed budget for fiscal year 2009-10 is $567,165,680 which includes a capital projects budget of $98.2 million, primarily funded through grants; refuse, sewer, water, sanitation, parking meter and regional transportation center budgets totaling $91.8 million; a housing assistance budget of $32.4 million; a redevelopment agency budget of $66.8 million; CDBG and other grants totaling $12.9 million; interfund transfers across all funds in the amount of $9.6; special revenue funds amounting to $35.5 million and a general fund budget of $219.8 million. 75A-1
