The budget provides spending authority to accomplish projects and continue to provide services during the fiscal year that runs from July 1, 2022, to June 30, 2023. The City’s budget contains a total of 29 active, self‐balancing funds that provide segregated accounting for specific activities. “Self‐balancing” means that resources (beginning fund balance plus revenues) equal the requirements (expenditures plus ending fund balance). More detailed information about each fund is provided within the budget document. SIGNIFICANT AREAS OF INTEREST Property Taxes and Assessments The Montana Department of Revenue reappraises taxable property on a 2‐year cycle. FY23 is not a reappraisal year, so the City’s taxable value is limited to growth from newly taxable property, such as new construction or additions completed by December 31, 2021. Given the continued strong building activity over the past year, the proposed budget assumes taxable value will grow by 4% compared to Fiscal Year 2022 (FY22). When considering proposed changes to property taxes and assessments in FY23, it is important to recall the financial effects of prior year budgets. With our community facing challenges from the COVID‐19 pandemic, the FY22 adopted budget continued a 10.0 mill decrease from Fiscal Year 2021 (FY21), provided an additional reduction of 14.165 mills, and held all maintenance assessments and utility fees flat for a second year. During preparation of the proposed FY23 budget, careful consideration was made regarding the level of service expectations and the financial impacts taxpayers and residents already face with rising costs from inflation and residual supply chain issues from the pandemic. Proposed Fiscal Year 2023 Budget Page 1 of 117 ---PAGE BREAK--- The proposed FY23 budget provides an overall reduction in mills of 8.413 mills, which equates a 5.36% decrease in property tax revenue. The ability for the City to provide a reduction in property taxes is primarily due to the significant increase property tax relief from resort tax collections. Resort taxes collected in excess of the budget must be returned to taxpayers as additional property tax relief. For FY23, property tax relief from resort tax is expected to reduce mills by 22.413 mills compared to FY22. However, due to the need for wage adjustments and increasing operational costs, the proposed budget offsets the 22.413 mill reduction with a 10 mill increase in the City’s general levy, including 4 mills dedicated to affordable housing initiatives, and a 4 mill increase in the City’s permissive group health insurance levy. In a typical year, maintenance assessments are recommended to increase by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) to account for the increased cost to provide services. However, with a CPI of 7.1% for FY23 and many struggling to afford the rising costs, careful consideration was made to determine the minimum increase needed based on the financial status of each fund. The proposed FY23 budget keeps the assessments for the Residential and Commercial Lighting Maintenance Districts and the Stormwater Maintenance District flat for a third consecutive year. The assessments for the Street Maintenance District and Parks & Greenway Maintenance District are proposed to increase 4.0%. The proposed changes described above for a residential property with no new improvements during the calendar year 2021 and a market value of $438,700 for both FY22 and FY23, as established by the Montana Department of Revenue, will see an estimated annual savings of $41.87 on the City’s portion of their 2022 property tax bill. While a home valued at $438,700 at first glance does not seem aligned with the market values of Whitefish, the sample property used for this calculation shows an estimated value of $916,400 according to Zillow. Therefore, it is important to recognize that the impacts from the real estate market increases over the past two years will not be a factor until the next budget cycle. Resort Tax Resort tax collections for FY22 are projected to be the highest amount collected since its inception and about 30% higher than the prior year. With projected FY22 collections significantly higher than budgeted, property tax relief is once again on the rise. Property tax relief for FY23 is estimated to increase 70.1% or $1,168,138 compared to FY22. Total property tax relief is estimated at $2,835,157, which equals a reduction in mills levied of 57.691 mills compared to the reduction of 35.278 mills in the prior year. The Haskill Basin Conservation Easement Bond is expected to be paid for in whole by Resort Tax in FY23. While water rate revenue is a required secondary source of funds used to secure the bond, the City has not had to utilize water revenues to make a debt service payment. In fact, additional property tax relief has been rebated during the past three years as collections have been more than adequate to meet the bond requirements. Proposed Fiscal Year 2023 Budget Page 2 of 117 ---PAGE BREAK--- Fund Balance and Working Capital Reserves During an economic downturn, recession, or a a public health crisis like the COVID‐19 pandemic, having adequate reserves for each fund is essential to maintaining expected levels of services for our citizens and ensuring a timely response to emergencies. While a possible delay in collections of property taxes and other charges for services can be expected due to uncertain economic times, reserves will help the City manage any cash flow issues that may arise. Budgeted fund balance in property tax supported funds at the end of FY23 totals $5,262,416 and represents 38.91% of total budgeted expenditures. The decrease from 39.85% in FY22 to the 38.91% in FY23 is very minor and mostly noted in the Fire and Ambulance Fund. Recall that the CARES Act provided a significant source of unexpected federal funding for the Fire Department in FY22. With this year’s one‐time spenddown of cash reserve for capital equipment, adequate fund balance is still maintained, and the City will save costs associated with financing the equipment purchases. Overall, the fund balances of property tax supported funds will remain at acceptable levels even with a spend‐down budgeted for one‐time capital purchases. Capital Improvements A Capital Improvements Program (CIP) is a vital planning tool to communicate with the community about the City’s intent to preserve, improve and expand City infrastructure, facilities and equipment. The City’s proposed five‐year CIP details capital improvement projects within each fund. Amounts spent on capital projects fluctuates annually as projects change and needs are adjusted to meet demand. Total capital spending in FY23 is projected to decrease $5.2 million compared to the prior year as construction wraps up on both the Wastewater Treatment Plant Upgrade Project (decrease of $3.49 million) and the Water Treatment Plant Expansion Project (decrease of $1.2 million). In property tax supported funds, capital spending is set to decrease by $147,617 from the prior year. City Personnel With a CPI increase of 7.1% and a taxable value increase estimated at 4.0%, most City employees in a normal year would receive a pay increase of 3.5%, comprised of a 1.5% cost of living adjustment (capped at 1.5%) plus a 2% STEP (longevity) on the City’s pay matrix. However, given the current market conditions, the City has seen an increase in turnover and difficulty filling positions. The need to retain employees is of the utmost importance to ensure we continue to deliver exceptional service to our community. With modest increases of 4.0%‐3.5% for the past two years, wages have simply not kept up. The FY23 proposed wage adjustment is 7.0%, comprised of a cost‐of‐living adjustment (COLA) of 5% plus a 2% STEP (longevity) on the pay matrix. While a ceiling of 3.5% for two unions and nonunion employees exists, the proposed FY23 budget recognizes the need to adjust COLA to reflect the market more closely. If approved, a memorandum of understanding will be executed to account for this one‐time adjustment to our Proposed Fiscal Year 2023 Budget Page 3 of 117 ---PAGE BREAK--- wage formula with both unions. Negotiations will begin in June 2022 with AFSCME (Public Works Union) to negotiate a new collective bargaining agreement that includes FY23 wages. Furthermore, wages for seasonal positions in the Parks & Recreation Department have been adjusted to follow the non‐union employee pay matrix. The reclassification of these positions provides for equity in pay and has increased the starting wages to just over $15 per hour, which has significantly improved our hiring capabilities this summer. Health insurance premium are increasing by approximately 3.0% in FY23 with the City paying the full increase based on the City’s established formula and a CPI rate of 7.1%. FY23 will be the third consecutive year that employees have not had an increase in their portion of health insurance premiums. Before proposing new positions or increased hours many factors are taken into consideration such as cost, value, productivity, and possible outsourcing options. The FY23 budget includes the following increases in staffing levels in response to continued growth: Law Enforcement Fund – As noted in the FY22 budget, a new police officer has been added in the proposed FY23 budget to ensure the Police Department remains proactive and can properly protect and serve the community with the growing number of year‐round residents and increased summer visitation. Total cost is approximately $84,443 per year. Fire & Ambulance Fund – In an effort to decrease overtime, reduce firefighter burnout due to increasing call volume, and more consistently reach staffing levels in accordance with the recently adopted Fire Department Master Plan, the two existing 40‐hour per week firefighter/paramedic positions are proposed to move to 53‐hour per week schedules. The total cost is estimated at about $35,500 for both positions. With the changes describe above one shift would be at only five firefighters/paramedics. To increase staffing to six for each of the three shifts a new 53‐hour per week firefighter/paramedic position is proposed. Keep in mind staffing levels for firefighters/paramedics changed for the first time since 2010 in FY22 with the addition of the two 40‐hour per week positions. For this new position, the City has applied for a SAFER grant to cover the costs during the first three years. The total cost of the position is estimated at $103,645. To address the Fire Department needs of EMS supply management and training coordination, as well as the growing demand of the Assistant Fire Chief with annual inspections of short‐term rentals and building plan reviews, which in turn limits support for daily operations, a second Assistant Fire Chief position is proposed for FY23. This position is proposed to be primarily funded with a pending SAFER grant. If grant funds are awarded, the current Assistant Fire Chief position would transition to Assistant Fire Chief of Prevention and be responsible for building inspections, plan reviews, and wildfire preparedness and education. The new position would be an Assistant Chief of Operations Proposed Fiscal Year 2023 Budget Page 4 of 117 ---PAGE BREAK--- responsible for day‐to‐day operations including staffing, operational response needs, EMS coordination, and development and management of a training program. Total annual cost of the position is estimated at $123,346. Various Funds – With increasing FTEs and demands on the Human Resources Director, the proposed FY23 budget includes funds for a new Human Resources Generalist position to support the Human Resources Director. With this additional help the Human Resources Department can more effectively recruit new hires, ensure safety programs are operating, update the personnel policy timelier, and be more readily available as a resource for employees. Total cost per year is about $68,763 and is allocated among various funds including the General Fund, special revenue funds, and enterprise funds. General Fund – In 2021, the City Council increased licensing fees for short‐term rentals (STRs), which included the cost to hire an additional Code Enforcement Officer to improve enforcement of illegal STRs. Total costs per year is about $85,390. Building Codes Fund – Building in Whitefish has reached record numbers and overall indications show there is no slowing in the coming years. With the continued high demand, there is need for an additional Building Inspector to support ongoing operations and reduce burnout of current staff. With more than adequate reserves in the Building Codes Fund, funding will not result in an increase in taxes or fees. The total cost per year is estimated at $85,390. Parks, Recreation, & Community Services Fund – The existing Facility Maintenance Foreman currently manages the maintenance of aging facilities and bike paths. With larger projects requiring immediate attention, the Facility Maintenance Foreman is unable to keep up with the necessary maintenance. Additionally, attempting to hire seasonal help to relieve some of the workload during the busiest months has been unsuccessful. Therefore, the proposed FY23 budget includes a new Facilities Maintenance Technician position to help balance the workload and allow for better service to the community. This position will increase staffing from one position to two full‐time positions to focus on facilities maintenance and bike paths. With an offset from a reduction in seasonal wages, the additional cost of this position is estimated at $31,675. There were additional positions requested by Department Directors that are not included in the proposed budget due to financial constraints such as the addition of a street maintenance personnel. However, the street maintenance position and others will be reconsidered for the FY24 budget. Proposed Fiscal Year 2023 Budget Page 5 of 117 ---PAGE BREAK--- FY22 BUDGET GENERAL OVERVIEW As previously described, the number of property tax mills levied is proposed to decrease by 8.413 mills. The chart below shows the trend of our property tax mills levied over recent years, but keep in mind that the value of a mill has increased most years. When considering mill rates, it is common practice to compare the City of Whitefish to other Montana cities. Historically, Whitefish has had very low property tax mill levy rates. The lower rates are due to our reduction of property taxes from Resort Tax, high taxable property value, and the utilization of maintenance district assessments. The City’s budget has provided the following graphic for several years. 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 120.401 119.805 120.605 134.242 119.240 120.427 120.427 117.636 107.637 93.472 85.059 Number of Mills Levied After Resort Tax Rebate 286.75 243.83 229.7 221.6 221.28 212.85 205.93 193.3 187.7 175.98 175.12 117.64 112.38 79.77 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 Fiscal Year 2020 Total Property Tax Mills for Certain Cities over 4,500 Population or with Resort Tax Proposed Fiscal Year 2023 Budget Page 6 of 117 ---PAGE BREAK--- While levy comparisons are of interest, caution should be exercised in drawing hard conclusions based on such information. Cities use property taxes to support similar, but not always the same, mix of public services. For example, some cities support libraries, public transportation and other such services with property tax mill levies while others do not. Some cities have maintenance district assessments and others do not. Total budgeted revenues and other financing sources for all funds total $34,963,904 which is $2,570,107 or 6.85% lower than the FY22 budget of $37,534,011. Most of the decrease in FY23 is attributed to the reduction of anticipated grant proceeds for the Spokane Avenue Cast Iron Watermain Replacement Project in the Water Fund. The FY23 budget totals $41,219,007 in expenditures and $9,746,077 in interfund transfers for a total appropriated budget of $50,965,084. Compared to the prior fiscal year, FY23 expenditures are decreasing $1,234,283, a 2.91% decrease, and interfund transfers are increasing $2,318,336, a 31.21% increase. The decrease in expenditures is mostly due to changes in capital expenditures with the completion of the Water Treatment Plant Expansion Project and substantial completion of the Wastewater Treatment Plant Upgrade Project. The increase in transfers is mostly due to the increased property tax relief from resort tax and increases in operational transfers to assist in covering costs for personnel. Total appropriations for property tax supported funds have increased by $1,960,256, which is primarily due to increased personnel costs described above and inflationary impacts on operational materials and supplies. The proposed FY23 budget is a balanced budget, with some planned reductions in fund balances and working capital by year‐end. The City continues to make significant progress in addressing the three financial areas that are often referenced when discussing the City’s financial position. Those financial areas include: 1) maintaining cash reserves and fund balance, 2) improved funding of capital projects less debt), and 3) addressing unfunded personnel liabilities. All of these items are addressed within the proposed budget as follows: 1. Fund balance for property tax supported funds is 38.91%. This is largely due to the CARES Act reimbursements for police and firefighter wages collected in FY22 and continued prudent spending by departments. 2. In FY23 more capital projects have been funded with cash or grants in our property tax supported funds than in prior years. The City has also been able to plan and effectively fund most projects in the annual CIP, minimizing deferral to future years. 3. Personnel services have been increased to pay the final accrued leave payouts for known retirements in FY23, as well as continue to pay the annual holiday accruals in excess of the recently instituted caps with the police and fire unions. Proposed Fiscal Year 2023 Budget Page 7 of 117 ---PAGE BREAK--- FY23 BUDGET CONCLUSION The proposed FY23 budget, as presented, will continue to support the City’s endeavor to provide exceptional services to our community, adjust to growth and demand, and improve our facilities all while keeping increases in property taxes and assessments at a minimum. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the Department Directors and their staff for their assistance in the preparation of this year’s proposed budget. Thank you for your review and consideration of the proposed FY23 budget. City staff and I look forward to reviewing the details with you in the upcoming budget work sessions.

Proposed Fiscal Year 2023 Budget Page 11 of 117 ---PAGE BREAK--- Staffing Staffing FY 2023 The FY 2023 budget funds 119.2 full time equivalent employees (FTEs); not including employees Parks and Recreation hires seasonally during the winter and summer months. The FTE count also does not include a summer internship for Public Works. The total budgeted payroll and employer contributions (personnel services) which includes seasonal and intern wages and employer contributions for FY 2023 are proposed to increase $1.23 million (10.4%) from FY 2022 to $13.05 million in FY 2023. Significant changes in personnel services include the following: • A 7.0% wage increase is included for most employees for FY 2023. With the competitive job market and rising cost of living, the City has seen an increase in turnover and difficulty filling positions. The need to retain employees is of the utmost importance to ensure we continue to deliver exceptional service our community expects. With modest increases of 4.0%‐3.5% for the past two years, wages have simply not kept up. The FY 2023 proposed wage adjustment includes a cost‐of‐living adjustment (COLA) of 5% plus a 2% STEP on the pay matrix (longevity pay). While a ceiling of 3.5% for two unions and non‐ union employees exists, the proposed FY 2023 budget recognizes the need to adjust COLA to reflect the market more closely. If approved, a memorandum of understanding will be executed to account for this one‐time adjustment to our wage formula with both unions current under executed contracts. Negotiations will begin in June with AFSCME (Public Works) to negotiate a new contract, including FY 2023 wages. • Seasonal wages for Parks & Recreation have been adjusted to follow the non‐union employees pay matrix. The reclassification of these positions provides for equity in pay and has increased the starting wages to just over $15 per hour, which has significantly improved our hiring capabilities this summer. • Health insurance costs are increasing for FY 2023 by approximately 3.0% with the City paying the full increase based on the City’s established formula and a consumer price index rate of 7.1%. FY 2023 will be the third consecutive year that employees have not had an increase in their health insurance premiums. • With growth continuing in Whitefish, there is a need to add new positions and make significant changes to current positions. Below are the proposed changes in staffing levels for FY 2023: o Law Enforcement Fund – As noted in the FY 2022 budget, a new police officer has been included in the proposed FY 2023 budget to ensure the Police Department remains proactive and can properly protect and serve the community with the growing year‐round population and summer visitation. Total cost is approximately $84,443 per year. Proposed Fiscal Year 2023 Budget Page 12 of 117 ---PAGE BREAK--- Staffing Staffing FY 2023 o Fire & Ambulance Fund – To decrease overtime, reduce firefighter burnout, and more consistently reach staffing levels in accordance with the recently adopted Fire Department Master Plan, the two existing 40‐hour per week firefighter/paramedic positions are proposed to move to full‐time 53‐hour per week schedules. The total cost is estimated at about $35,500. With the changes describe above it leaves one shift at only five firefighters/paramedics. To increase staffing to six for each of the three shifts a new full‐time 53‐hour per week firefighter/paramedic position is proposed. The City has applied for a SAFER grant to support costs in the first three years. The total cost of the position is estimated at $103,645. To address the Fire Department needs of EMS and training coordination, as well as the continued high demand of the Assistant Fire Chief with annual inspections of short‐term rentals and building permit reviews limiting support for daily operations, an additional Assistant Fire Chief is proposed for FY 2023. This position is proposed to be primarily funded with a pending SAFER grant. If grant funds are awarded, the current Assistant Fire Chief position would transition to Assistant Fire Chief of Prevention and be responsible for building inspections, plan reviews, and wildfire preparedness and education. The new position would be an Assistant Chief of Operations responsible for day‐to‐day operations including staffing, operational response needs, EMS coordination, and development and management of a training program. Total annual cost of the position is estimated at $123,346. o Various Funds – With increasing FTEs and demands on the Human Resources Director, the proposed FY 2023 budget includes funds for a new Human Resources Generalist position to support the Human Resources Director. With this additional help the Human Resources Department can more effectively recruit new hires, ensure safety programs are operating, update the personnel policy timelier, and be available for employees and their increasing needs. Total cost is estimate per year is $68,763 and is allocated among various funds including the General Fund, special revenue funds and enterprise funds. o General Fund – In 2021, the City Council increased licensing fees for short‐term rentals (STRs), which included the cost to hire an additional Code Enforcement Officer to improve enforcement of illegal STRs. Total costs per year is about $85,390. Proposed Fiscal Year 2023 Budget Page 13 of 117 ---PAGE BREAK--- Staffing Staffing FY 2023 o Building Codes Fund – Building in Whitefish has reached record numbers and the staffing levels of the Building Department have only increased on the administrative side. All indications show there is no slowing in the coming years, which supports the need for an additional Building Inspector to support ongoing operations and reduce burnout of current staff. With more than adequate reserves in the Building Codes Fund, funding will not result in an increase in taxes or fees. The total cost per year is estimated at $85,390. o Parks, Recreation, & Community Services Fund – The existing Facility Maintenance Foreman has been split between maintenance of aging facilities and maintenance of aging bike paths. With larger projects requiring immediate attention, the Facility Maintenance Foreman is not able to keep up with the necessary maintenance. Additionally, attempting to hire seasonal help to relieve some of the workload during the busiest months has not been successful. Therefore, the proposed FY 2023 budget includes a new Facilities Maintenance Technician position to help balance the workload and allow for better service to the community.

Revenue bonds are backed by the underlying revenue applicable to the financing. The City has no general obligation debt outstanding. The Budget includes appropriations for all debt service obligations due in FY 2021. On March 1, 2016, the City closed on the TIF 2016 Series Bonds to provide financing for a portion of the new City Hall and parking facility. These bonds were paid off in FY21. The City created and approved Special Improvement District (SID) 167 to help fund a portion of the construction costs of the downtown parking facility. The SID 167 Bond was issued on January 5, 2017, in the amount of $779,000. Properties within the SID boundaries were assessed for the first time in FY 2018. The SID 166 Bond that was issued for the JP Road construction project continues to be assessed on properties within that District. The water and wastewater loans currently outstanding were provided by SRF for construction and upgrades to the water and wastewater systems. These loans are backed by and paid for through the user fees generated from the water and wastewater systems. In 2020, the City entered into a loan agreement with the State of Montana’s SRF loan program for the Wastewater Treatment Plant that included two series of loans; one for $10,000,000 and a $350,000 forgivable loan which were finalized on May 6th, 2020. The City issued a third loan for the project in the amount of $9,575,000 on November 19, 2020. The FY22 budget includes a continuing draw from the SRF loan totaling $1,489,000. In FY21 the City entered into a loan agreement with the State of Montana's SRF loan program for the Water Treatment Plan expansion project which included two series of loans; one for $6,000,000 issued on September 23, 2020 and the other on April 7, 2021 for $5,000,000. In FY 2016, the City closed on a loan through the SRF program to fund the purchase of the Haskill Basin Conservation Easement. This loan is first backed by Resort Tax revenues resulting from 70% of the additional 1% that went into effect on July 1, 2015. In addition to the Resort Tax revenues, the loan is further backed up by water user fees if Resort Tax revenues are not adequate in any given year while the loan is outstanding. The City budget also includes the continued payment of financing for the replacement of information technology network infrastructure including routers and switches. The loan totals $192,812 with an annual payment of $38,562.25. The loan has a five‐year term at The following is a summary of the budgeted outstanding debt obligations for the City as of June 30, 2021: Proposed Fiscal Year 2023 Budget Page 16 of 117 ---PAGE BREAK--- Debt Description Balance as of June 30, 2021 ^ Water Revenue Bonds* $ 10,399,000 Water Revenue Bond – Haskill Basin C.E.* $ 4,903,000 SID 166 Bond* $ 320,000 SID 167 Bond* $ 685,910 Wastewater Revenue Bonds*^ $ 21,309,000 2018 Ambulance Loan $ 73,349 Fire Engine Loan $ 173,379 Fire Tender Loan $ 30,809 TOTAL $ 37,892,447 *Bonds backed by specific revenue sources other than property tax. ^ Outstanding bonds may change depending on final draws needed for construction Proposed Fiscal Year 2023 Budget Page 17 of 117 ---PAGE BREAK--- Revenues The City of Whitefish has various types of revenue streams during any given year. Revenues include, but are not limited to, charges for services, grants, resort tax, maintenance assessments, and property tax revenue. Other than charges for water and sewer services, the revenue often of most interest is property taxes and maintenance assessments that are included on property tax bills. Of the total property tax bill (including taxes and assessments), the City of Whitefish accounts for 23.8%. Approximately 52% of a city resident’s property tax bill goes to education. While levy comparisons of local taxing jurisdictions are of interest, caution should be exercised in not drawing hard conclusions based on such information. The value of a mill varies by jurisdiction and the type of activities provided by each jurisdiction varies. However, it is helpful in reviewing where property tax revenue is allocated and the trends over the past five years by jurisdiction.

Services provided by the General Fund include Municipal Court, Administrative Services, Resort Tax Administrative Services, Legal Services, Parking Facility Maintenance, Community Planning, Community Agencies, Cemetery Services, and other Non‐Departmental functions. Significant transfers of property taxes are also made from the General Fund to support the Law Enforcement Fund, Fire and Ambulance Fund, Library Fund and the Parks and Recreation Fund. General Fund services generate relatively little or no revenue to offset their costs. As such, property tax revenue and other “general” income sources pay for General Fund expenses.

Insurance, benefits, payroll, accounting, financial reporting and information technology administration are areas covered by this division. There are nine full time employees in Administrative Services, but most of their personnel costs are spread throughout the City’s budget in a cost allocation formula. FY 2023 Objectives The objective of the Administrative Services Division in the General Fund for FY 2023 is to provide budget authority to provide the above listed services within the City. City Council establishes short‐term and long‐term goals for the City, which guide the operations and objectives during FY 2023. The FY 2023 Budget provides for professional services for the City’s external audit and financial reporting needs, crisis communication contract, and $30,000 for the 5‐year Impact Fee Update (additional funds in Stormwater, Water, and Wastewater Funds). Other costs include software licensing, general repairs and maintenance, and the City’s semi‐annual newsletter. Proposed Fiscal Year 2023 Budget Page 31 of 117 ---PAGE BREAK--- Admin & Legal Cost Allocation The Administrative Services Division expenditures of the General Fund are allocated to any fund that has personal services costs. The amount of admin expenditures allocated to other funds is based on the amount of salaries and benefits paid by each of the other funds as a percentage of the total salaries and benefits for the City. For example, in FY 2023, 10.90% of the total City payroll is budgeted in the General Fund. Therefore 10.90% of any administrative services materials and services expenditures remain in the General Fund, and 89.10% is allocated to other funds. The table below shows both the total amount before the allocation of costs and the amount that remains in the General Fund. In Office Supplies, under the Budget FY 2023 column, the total budget is $8,000, however, of that $8,000, only $872 or 10.90% will stay in the General Fund— as depicted in the Allocation FY 2023 column below.

The resort tax was approved for a 20‐year term beginning January 1, 1996. At the November 2, 2004 City election, the voters approved an extension of the resort tax until January 31, 2025 by a margin of 2012 to 632. At a special election on April 28, 2015, the voters approved an increase in the Resort Tax from 2% to 3% for additional property tax relief and to fund the purchase of the Haskill Basin Conservation Easement to protect and preserve water quality and quantity. The vote passed by a margin of 1718 to 334. The 1% increase in Resort Tax from 2% to 3% was effective July 1, 2015. Whitefish’s resort tax is a tax on the sale of lodging, restaurant and prepared food, alcoholic beverages, ski resort goods and services, and the retail sale of defined luxury items. As of July 1, 2015, Whitefish voters allocated the use of the 3% resort tax as follows: A. Property tax reduction for taxpayers residing in the city in an amount equal to twenty five percent (25%)of the 3% resort tax revenues derived during the preceding fiscal year; B. Provision for the repair and improvement of existing streets, storm sewers, all underground utilities, sidewalks, curbs and gutters, in an amount equal to sixty five percent (65%) of the 2% resort tax revenues derived during the preceding fiscal year; C. Bicycle paths and other park capital improvements in an amount equal to five percent of the 2% resort tax revenues derived during the preceding fiscal year; D. Repayment of a loan or bond to finance a portion of the costs of, or to otherwise pay for, the acquisition of the conservation easement or other interest, in and around Haskill Basin in order to protect and preserve water quality and quantity, including the source drinking water supply for the municipal water system of the city of Whitefish, in an amount equal to seventy (70%) percent of the 1% resort tax revenues to be collected during a fiscal year. E. Cost of administering the resort tax in an amount equal to five percent of the 3% resort tax per year. In November 2021, voters approved a 20‐year extension of the Resort Tax to 2045.

FY 2023 Objectives The objectives of the Stormwater Fund for this fiscal year are to provide continuing maintenance and improvements for the City’s stormwater system, as well as contract services necessary to implement environmental regulations. The Fund is supported by a stormwater utility assessment on all properties within the City. In FY 2011 the assessment was reduced from $72 per parcel to $12.53 to provide relief to taxpayers during the recession. The assessment has remained at $12.53 through FY 2018. The FY 2019 budget and FY 2020 budget increased the assessment up to $77.53 to cover the actual costs of maintenance and capital improvements needed for the Stormwater system. Due to the pandemic, assessments were held flat for FY 2021 and FY 2022. Furthermore, the FY 2023 budget assumes no rate changes as reserves are adequate and funding for current and future projects is adequate.
