AGENDA REPORT
May 24, 2022
Item #3
TITLE: REVIEW OF FY 2021/2022 THIRD QUARTER LIBRARY BUDGET
REPORT
SUMMARY:
Quarterly, the Special Library Parcel Tax Committee reviews the library’s budget
expenditures for the fiscal year.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Committee receive the FY 2021/2022 third quarter library
budget report.
BACKGROUND:
The library budget is comprised of the Parcel Tax Budget, the General Fund Budget,
and the contributions from the Friends of the Library.
This report provides year-to-date figures on the General Fund and Parcel Tax funding
spending for the third quarter of FY 2021/2022. As of this report, 75% of the fiscal year
has elapsed. The overall activity was 70% expended. General Fund expenditures ended
at 74% of budget. The General Fund expenditure is slightly lower due to staff vacancies.
The Parcel Tax expenditures ended at 59% of budget. The Parcel Tax expenditure is
significantly lower due to staff vacancies and due to the General Fund budget being
depleted where possible before the Parcel Tax budget.
Revenue Highlights
• The General Fund provides approximately 71% of the library’s total operations
budget. Revenue this year is estimated to be $12,200.
• Other revenue includes the contribution from the Friends of the Library, which
provides less than 1% of the library’s total operations budget. The expected
contribution for FY 2021/2022 is $33,815.
• The Parcel Tax revenue provides approximately 28% of the library’s total operations
budget. The Parcel Tax revenue (property tax) for FY 2021/2022 is estimated to be
$1,101,828.
Page 2 of 4
Expenditure Highlights
• General Fund expenditures:
1. Regular Hire Salaries & Benefits expenditures are lower due to staff
vacancies.
2. Extra Hire expenditures are fully expended as the General Fund is being
depleted before the Parcel Tax. The savings from the Regular Hire Salaries &
Benefits line will be utilized for additional funding for this line.
3. Building Maintenance Contracts expenditures are on target.
4. Maintenance Building Improvement expenditures are significantly higher
due to HVAC maintenance/repairs. However, there is enough remaining to
pay for the one quarterly preventative maintenance service in the remainder
of this fiscal year. Additional funds are available from Building Maintenance
Contracts to pay for unforeseen repairs.
5. Utilities-Gas & Electricity expenditures are higher due to higher energy
costs.
6. Contract Services expenditures are fully expended as the General Fund is
being depleted before the Parcel Tax. The savings from the Regular Hire
Salaries & Benefits line will be utilized for additional funding for this line
7. Internal Service Charges expenditures are on target.
8. Office Supplies expenditures are slightly lower, but on target.
9. Books expenditures are fully expended as the General Fund is being
depleted before the Parcel Tax.
10. Periodicals expenditures are lower in the General Fund. The current
periodicals levels in the library are adequate, therefore, the remaining funds
will be used for books.
11. Digital Branch Resources expenditures are fully expended as the General
Fund is being depleted before the Parcel Tax.
12. Audio/Video Materials expenditures are fully expended. However, funds
from the Books/Periodicals lines are available to pay for outstanding/future
A/V orders.
13. Travel & Conference expenditures are underspent, but there may be
upcoming local conferences where these funds will be utilized. Additionally,
staff who travel between library locations are reimbursed from this line for
mileage.
14. Training & Instruction expenditures are underspent due to the many free
trainings available online. However, these funds may be used for upcoming
training opportunities or to augment the Travel & Conference line.
15. Professional Dues & Subscriptions expenditure are lower as only staff
involved with professional organizations are encouraged to pay for
membership.
16. Credit Card Fees line expenditure are lower as fees are minimal due to
higher online payment transactions.
• Parcel Tax expenditures:
1. Regular Hire Salaries & Benefits expenditures are lower due to staff
vacancies.
Page 3 of 4
2. Extra Hire expenditures are significantly higher due to coverage for vacant
positions. The General Fund savings from the Regular Hire Salaries &
Benefits line will be utilized once this line is fully depleted.
3. County Administration Fee expenditures are underspent. This line is
budgeted and managed by the City Finance Department and historically has
never gone overbudget at the end of the previous fiscal years.
4. Contract Services expenditures line is not budgeted. However, this line will
continue to be used for the Library Preservation, Renovation and Expansion
Project related expenditures. The Measure C Parcel Tax Capital Set-Aside
balance will be reduced at the end of the fiscal year by the amount paid to the
various contractors.
5. Programming Supplies expenditures are lower due to a reduction in
programming. However, programming will continue to increase in FY2021-
2022 as staff vacancies are filled and in person programming slowly returns.
Unspent funds are added to the Parcel Tax Fund Balance at the end of the
fiscal year.
6. Office Supplies expenditures are lower, however there are plans to use
some of these funds to pay for additional public computers.
7. Books expenditures are underspent, but these funds are continually
monitored by selectors and will be fully expended by the end of the fiscal
year.
8. Periodicals expenditures are fully expended as the Parcel Tax was being
depleted before the General Fund at the start of the fiscal year.
9. Digital Branch Resources expenditures are underspent, but these funds are
continually monitored and will be fully expended by the end of the fiscal year
(eBooks).
10. Technology Supplies & Materials expenditures are overspent due to the
recent upgrade of small/outdated staff monitors. The remaining funds will be
used for 3D printer parts/supplies.
9. Training & Instruction expenditures are underspent due to the many free
trainings available online. However, these funds may be used for upcoming
training opportunities or to augment the Travel & Conference line.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None
ALTERNATIVE ACTION:
Any other action as determined by the Committee.
