services desired by the public and the required costs of those services against the willingness
or ability of taxpayers to pay for them.
Budget Approach
As with last year’s budget, the Staff has worked from a base level equal to the current level of
taxation without assuming an increase in property taxation. The budget proposals then
provide Council with a potential list of prioritized expenses and revenues. This approach is
intended to demonstrate that there is no assumption of tax increase, and provides the City
Council with the ability to select those expenses and revenues which are of priority to the City
Council.
Preliminary Budget and Tax Levy
On September 15 the City Council is required to certify to the County Auditor the estimated
2015 budget and maximum tax levy the Council will consider for adoption in December. The
Council has scheduled work sessions in which to discuss and provide guidance on the
proposal the Council wishes to consider for the maximum levy.
Throughout the following months, the Council will hold additional discussions on the
proposed budget and tax levy so as to arrive at a final determination in December. The
Council will be able to reduce the levy from the September amount, but will not be able to
raise it. Thus the Council may wish to consider adopting a levy which encompasses the
majority of the potential items the Council wishes to consider through the fall with an
understanding that the final levy may be lower.
Budget Prioritization
Following the budgeting model adopted by the City Council for the 2014 budget and tax levy
the Staff is proposing a prioritization budget model for the Council’s consideration. The
model is setup with several assumptions which can be modified by the Council.
The assumptions are premised on following mandatory changes imposed on the City; that we
will strive for ever greater efficiencies in how we provide services, that we will invest in
infrastructure necessary to sustain the community, and that the City will strive to maintain
service levels as they currently exist and finally, we will consider new initiatives or programs
that will improve the quality and livability of life in the community.

3. City hall renovations
City Hall is 25 years old this year. In 2001 the addition of the west wing was added to
accommodate a growing city and staff. The current CIP includes renovations to the
current building in the amount of $214,000. These improvements include
modifications to improve service, replace worn out carpet and fix a sinking floor in the
west wing.
A simplified space study was completed to look at how City Hall is laid out and to look
for improvements that could improve efficiencies, customer service and avoid future
expenses.
The study has produced good results and should be strongly considered for
implementation. It includes the already budgeted improvements and reallocates
space in the building to improve the interactions between departments, change
meeting and office spaces to reflect modern technological advancements, and
improve public meetings.
4. Police – iPhones
Police department is proposing the elimination of handheld voice recorders and
cameras with the replacement of current cell phones with iPhone. The iPhone
provide police offices with greater access to technology and operating efficiency.
Capital Investment $37,318 Annual costs $41,910
Estimated reduction in capital investment $ 9,100
Estimated increase in operating cost $6,082 / year.
5. Streets – sidewalk scarcifier.
Sidewalks which have shifted more than ½” need to be leveled at the transition
between the sidewalk panels in order to maintain pedestrian safety. Street
department currently rents a scarcifier ($600 – 1,400/yr.) to reduce the transitions.
Purchase of the scarifier is recommended to reduce long-term operating costs.
Capital Investment $5,856. Return on investment 5 – 10 years
6. Streets – wheel lift

risk of back injury and workers comp claims
Capital Investment $3,550

7. Streets – Mobile resource management system.
The mobile resource management system uses GPS and web software to better
manage salt and chemical applications for road ice and snow operations thereby
reducing salt and chemical costs.
Capital investment $11,234 Annual Operating cost $2,392
Aging Infrastructure
Infrastructure can be defined as the basic physical and organizational structures need for the
community to function including:
Transportation (roads and bridges)
Utilities (water, sanitary sewer, storm sewer)
Parks and Trails
Facilities and buildings
Due to the passage of time and use, the City’s infrastructure requires maintenance and
renewal. From time to time the City adds infrastructure which increases the need for
resources to sustain them. The City has established short and long-term plans for some but
not all of these systems. Some are supported through user fees, others through property
taxes.
The City Council has established long-term plans for the maintenance and renewal of most of
these categories of infrastructure, but the Council should focus discussion on the long-term
financing for the maintenance of trails and buildings/facilities.
The budget provides a five-year financial plan for these categories, but lack a stable on-going
revenue source over the long-run. The current proposal relies heavily on short-term transfers
or one-time revenue sources.
Staff recommends that the Council adopt a plan to address long-term financial stability. This
can be achieved through a thoughtful multi-year approach, but absent this discussion, the
funding past the five-year horizon is troublesome. A commitment to infrastructure is needed.
Parks maintenance and replacement
The City Council has begun the review of the 5-year Parks Improvement Plan. This plan
outlines the Council’s goals for the completion and improvement of the Park system. The
Council has reasonably asked questions about both the capital and maintenance costs
associated with maintaining a highly regarded park system.
Prior to adopting the Parks Plan, time and resources should be devoted to understanding the
capital costs associated with the plan as well as the cost of maintaining and renovating the
8
park improvements. Consideration should be given to a possible park referendum to achieve
the desired results and to recognize the on-going costs of maintenance.
Staff Resources
Lakeville has a history of lean staffing levels. When compared to other similar organizations,
Lakeville has a substantially lower employee to population ratio.

Population
During the most recent recession, the City Council took steps to reduce staffing levels in
almost all departments to recognize the loss of funding from traditional revenue sources.
Many of those revenue sources have returned with an upturn in the economy, but the staffing
levels have continued at the recession period levels. Therefore, workloads of the pre-
recession period have returned but staffing levels have not.
Running a lean operation is what this community expects and what has been delivered. But
there is a point of diminishing returns when staffing levels are too lean to provide daily
service needs, or when staff does not have the time or resources to adequately anticipate and
plan for the future needs of the City.
It is recommended that the City Council strongly look to add additional staffing to key areas
so as to reduce the potential for lower service quality and errors due to over-burdened staff.
The needs for staffing increases are identified in the proposed budget prioritization
document. All of the requested staffing is intended to be at the service provider level. No
9
Director level positions are proposed. And each position recognizes the growth that is
occurring in the community or provides support within the organization.
The personnel positions have been defined in a two-year proposal so as to recognize the
immediate needs, but to ease into the positions over a two-year budget period.
Impacts of Growth
The additional growth occurring in the City will result in additional tax base. That tax base will
be needed to pay for the additional cost of providing services to the growth area residents.
And some of the tax base can help pay for city-wide services.
The budget priorities reflect the need to provide services and include additional personnel
and equipment to serve those areas. It is recommended that the City Council determine how
to balance the service levels provided across the community with the revenues needed to
provide them. The tax revenue that comes after the growth occurs should be sufficient to pay
for the services needed by the new areas, and can help pay some of the community-wide
costs, but is not sufficient to lower taxes across the community.
Potential new revenues
The City Council has directed staff to seek non-tax revenue sources. Potential new revenues
include, but not limited to the following:
Police Alarm calls – 1st call (currently 3rd call)
Police Reservists services
Permit Plan review fee for projects under $10,000.
Permit Re-inspection fee
Permit Underground plumbing – additional inspection
Permit RPZ testing – letters to owners
Permit Septic pumping – second notice
The City Council may also wish to consider adjustments to other rate structures including but
limited to:
License Liquor licenses
Licenses Massage, taxicab, peddlers, recycle, parades, sign
Permits Burning, right of way
Permits Roofing or siding replacement
Planning Platting fees, variances, PUD, CUP, IUP, home occupation, IUP, lot release

Changes in Uses of Funds
The potential 2015 budget is $24,233,492 which is a $1,993,993 increase over the 2014 budget.
Subject to changes in the potential budget and/or revenues, approximately $1.552 million of
the increase is financed with property taxes and the remaining $441,993 from non‐tax revenues
such as permits, state aids and charges for services. The following is a summary of the
potential budget changes:

REVENUE SOURCE
A discussion of the details is provided on pages 61‐63; potential changes in property taxes are
provided on pages 43‐49. The following is a an overview of the “Descriptions”
Mandatory expenditure increases are those related to compliance with state and federal laws
such as elections, pension increases. Also includes contractual obligations such as collective
15
bargaining, liability insurance premiums, workers compensation and Dakota Communications
Center. Regulatory compliance includes state agency regulations, accounting standards or PCI
compliance.
Efficiency initiatives are intended to identify salient potential budget actions which reduce
costs, improve productivity or enhance the quality of services.
Infrastructure maintenance highlights those projects which are in intended to preserve the
value of community assets. It should be noted, infrastructure maintenance includes major
maintenance of the Highview Park rink; however, the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resource
Committee recommended closure of the Highview Park rink.
Continuity of Service addresses a number of subcategories in order to facilitate the discussion
of cost factors related to maintaining current service levels.
Financial management. Included revenue increases to support taxes and the
elimination of the contingency.
Revenue enhancements. Non‐tax revenues for operations.
Personnel compensation and benefits. For non‐union personnel and volunteer
firefighter pay for call.
Approved personnel positions. Increases due to retirements, resignations, transfers,
2014 employee transitions and other related cost adjustments.
Reorganization. Primarily related to reorganization in the Police and Public
Works/Engineering department.
New Personnel. The budget priorities provide staffing supporting within the
organization in recognition of the growth that is occurring in the community. A two year
staffing plan was developed in order to provide an orderly and affordable approach to
addressing service levels. A summary of the positions, scheduled start dates and related
cost is provided in the Appendix, on page 81. The property tax base increases due to
growth (new construction) are sufficient to pay for the positions.
Capital outlay acquisitions. Changes in equipment acquisitions and replacements. Only
related to General Fund budget; does not include Equipment Fund appropriations.
Utilities. Natural gas and electricity.
16
Commodities and other. Potential non‐personnel related appropriations. Includes
commodities such as motor fuels and operating supplies as well as professional services,
contract facility maintenance and miscellaneous expenditures.
Operational adjustments. Address cost increases related to scope of operations such as
street snow and ice removal, recruitment of Police Reservist and volunteer fire fighters
to replace those who have retired or resigned, police computer forensics program and
increased police personnel at Pan‐O‐Prog events.
Service improvements or enhancements are possible with the preparation of an Urban Reserve
Area Plan prepared by a planning consultant and a web‐based interactive system which enables
residents to graph the City financial performance. Improved community image opportunities
are available with city assuming responsibility for mowing boulevards adjacent to county roads,
landscape improvements to the Kenrick Avenue roundabout at 175th Street and contractual
plant maintenance at City Hall front foyer. The Parks Recreation and Natural Resources
Committee recommended closing the Highview Park rink and opening two rinks at two other
parks with potentially higher user activity
Details of the Potential Changes in Expenditures are provided on pages 61‐63.

Fund Balance
The Fund Balance Policy states “The City will endeavor to maintain an unrestricted (committed,
assigned and unassigned) fund balance in the General Fund of an amount not less than 40% and
not greater than 50% of the next year’s budgeted expenditures of the General Fund.”
The fund balance represents the amount of funds required to operate during the first six
months of the year. The City’s most significant revenue sources – taxes and intergovernmental
revenue – do not provide appreciable revenues until the second half of the year.
A healthy financial position also allows the City to avoid volatility in tax rates; helps minimize
the impact of State funding changes; allows for the adequate consistent funding of services,
repairs and unexpected costs; and can be a factor in determining the City’s bond rating and
resulting interest costs.

COMMUNICATIONS FUND
Fund Description
The Communications Fund accounts for franchise fees from cable TV operations.
Expenditures and other financing uses are used to finance the City’s Cable TV and Public
Communications functions, including long‐term replacement of equipment.
Uses of Funds
The Communications Fund finances the operations of the Communications Department which
is responsible for the City’s primary sources of information and communication including City
newsletter, City website, and Lakeville Government Television (cable channel 16). The
Communications Department also manages the Lakeville Access Television (cable channel 12).
The department’s mission is to provide information regarding municipal programs and services
in a quality and cost‐effective manner that engages the community and enhances the City’s
image locally, regionally, and nationally.
The potential budget is premised on the assumption the annual net revenues (after finance
current operations) can and will be appropriated to financing services such as streets, police,
fire and parks with franchise fees in lieu of a correspond property tax levy.
The potential budget also includes financing ($20,000) of the bi‐annual residential community
survey.
Sources of Funds
Franchise fees are the primary source of revenues ($610‐655,000 per year) for the
Communications Fund. The fund also collects approximately $54,500 per year of Education and
Government (E.G.) fees annually.
Fund Balance
Restricted Fund Balance. The fund balance related to capital outlay acquisitions financed with
education and government (E.G.) cable franchise fees is classified as “restricted” since is can
only be appropriated to legally authorized purposes.
Committed Fund Balance. The fund balance related to operations financed with cable
franchise fees (non‐educations and government) is classified as “committed”. The potential
budget appropriates approximately $495,000 of the Committed Communications Fund balance
to the Equipment Fund.
21
The “Committed” portion of the Communications Fund should have adequate balances to
provide working capital for on‐going operations. Since the cable franchise fees are received on
a quarterly basis, a balance representing 25‐35% of recurring expenditures is recommended.
The Communications Fund also should have adequate balances to finance anticipated capital
expenditures and/or significant outstanding expenditures. As such, a $495,000 fund balance is
available for other purposes.
One time revenues, such as use of fund balance, should be appropriated to purposes which are
non‐recurring and/or of a capital nature. Appropriation of $495,000 from the Communication
Fund to the Equipment Fund is recommended in order to provide a foundation for financing
anticipated significant acquisitions and replacement in next five years in order to mitigate
substantive fluctuations in the tax levy.

Other Financial Information
The Finance Committee, at its July 31 meeting, recommended the unencumbered fund balance
from the Communication Fund be appropriated to purposes which are non‐reoccurring and/or
of a capital nature such as the Equipment Fund.
The Finance Committee further recommended City Council adjust the Cable Television
Franchise Rate to more accurately reflect the actual cost of providing the Communication Fund
operating costs only.
The Cable Television Board has historically provided their recommendations to the City Council
regarding the Cable Television Franchise and Cable Television Franchise Fee rate. Staff
recommends that the Cable Television Franchise Board be provided the opportunity to provide
a recommendation(s).

PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT FUND
Fund Description
The Pavement Management Fund primary purpose is to account for pavement management
activities. The fund enables the City Council to establish a relatively stable tax levy. The fund
activities account for maintenance costs which would otherwise be accounted for in the
operating budget. The Pavement Management Fund enables the City to establish a long‐term
maintenance program and financing plan which, when taken into consideration with the street
reconstruction program, enables the City to develop a consistent long‐term financing plan.
Uses of Funds
Changes in the pavement management plan include
Discontinuance of sealcoating streets
Sealcoating of park parking lots to be accounted for in General Fund.
Increased crack sealing, patching, minor overlays and velocity patching.
A comparison of the 2014 budget to 2015 potential budget is as follows:

Sources of Funds
Property taxes and Municipal State Aid (M.S.A.) Street funds are the primary sources of
revenues for financing pavement maintenance activities. MSA funds are proposed to be
reduced to $120,000/year in order to provide the financing for road improvements such as
Dodd Boulevard from 185th to 192nd Street and County Road 50 from 186th Street to Dodd
Boulevard.
Fund Balance
The objective is to provide a beginning fund balance which will finance expenditures until the
City receives its July tax settlement. The fund balance is therefore recommended to be 50% of
expenditures.
The Fund has an excess balance of $524,000 which is recommended be transferred to the
Equipment Fund to provide long term financial stability.

TRAIL IMPROVEMENT FUND
Fund Description
The Trail Improvement Fund accounts for the long term maintenance, repairs and replacement
of the City trails. The Fund was initially financed with a one‐time transfer from the General
Fund. The levy will be increased over time in order to establish a long‐term sustainable
financial structure.
Uses of Funds
Annual maintenance (such as seal coating), repairs and replacement of trails.

Increase 33,000 33,000 33,000 33,000 33,000
Fund Balance
A fund balance of 50% of the subsequent years budget should be maintained to provide the
reserves during those periods when there are significant “peaks and valleys” in reconstruction
projects and to provide operating capital until the final tax proceeds are received in December
of each year. The fund balance is reduced from $714,274 (beginning in 2015) to $122,824 (at
the end of 2019) as the property tax financing is phased in.
Other Financial Information
The Trails Maintenance study prepared by WSB in 2011 stated that the average annual cost to
maintain the City’s trails system is approximately $250,000. The cost may vary from year to
year depending on the scope of work required for major maintenance and/or replacement.
The average annual cost will increase in future years as the trails system is expanded.

BUILDING FUND
Fund Description
The Building Fund accounts for the accumulation and disbursement of funds for the
construction or improvement of public buildings.
Uses of Funds
The funds are expended on major maintenance of City facilities. Not included in the Five Year
Capital Improvement Plan are the following
Gun Range. Police Department staff is research the feasibility of constructing a gun
range. Cost is estimated to be approximately $1.0 to 1.5 million
City Hall Remodeling. Renovate City Hall to improve efficiencies and customer service.
Accommodating persons with disabilities to be considered. The construction and
operational costs as well as method of financing have not been determined.
Fifth Fire Station. As the City grows, so too will the need for additional fire protection.
There may be a need for an additional fire station; however, a completion date or date
of initial operation has not been identified.
Sources of Funds
In an effort to minimize the tax impacts to residents and businesses during and since the Great
Recession, all major maintenance projects related to general government facilities (not
including Liquor or Utility) were financed from the Building Fund rather than the General Fund.
All of the facility projects, including minor maintenance, identified in recent Capital
Improvement Plans were accounted for in the Building Fund which is financed primarily with
one‐time revenues from Life Time Fitness. There are currently no defined on‐going revenue
sources for financing facility maintenance projects from the Building Fund.
Various options were considered in the development of the financing plan including but not
limited to one‐time revenues (such as from the Communications and General Fund) and
issuance of debt. One time revenues do not provide a consistent and reliable source of
financing. Issuance of debt increases maintenance costs and defers payment of current
obligations to future generations.
The proposed budget and five year capital improvement plan is premised on establishing an
adequate annual tax levy for finance facility major maintenance. Deferring the tax levy to future
years increases the risk of significant tax increases. Therefore, in order to mitigate significant
35
short term tax levy increases, the proposed five year plan proposes gradual increases over a
period of time.
Fund Balance
The estimated fund balance will decrease from $909,341 in 2015 to $99,999 in 2019.
Other Financial Information.
The Finance Committee, at their July 31 meeting, recommended City Council prioritize the
project schedule and re‐establish a property tax levy with gradual increases over a 5‐6 year
period.

Details relating to equipment are provided on pages 67 ‐ 76.
Sources of Funds
The primary revenue sources for financing equipment acquisitions during the five year period
are Liquor Fund transfers ($4.3 million), property taxes and sale of assets ($1.1 million). A
number of options were considering in developing a long‐term property tax financing structure
including but not limited to use of one‐time revenues, issuance of debt and graduated tax levy
increases.
The proposed tax levy is premised on consistent tax levy increases ($76,000/year) over a five
year period. In order to achieve a minimal tax levy increase, the proposed 5 year plan
assumes:
Use of one time revenues from the following sources.
Communications Fund – unencumbered balance. $495,000
General Fund – unencumbered fund balance $727,000
Pavement Management Fund $524,000
Issuance of $500,000 of debt in 2016 for replacement of a fire truck. The debt would be
structured with equal annual payments over a 10 year period.

TAX INCREMENT FUND
Fund Description
There are two tax increment projects in the Capital Project Funds that will be expiring in 2014.
Both are redevelopment TIF districts. There are also two tax increment projects in the Debt
Service funds which are expiring in 2014. The City also received the final payment ($2.2
million) on the Southfork Interest Reduction Loan Agreement.
Uses of Funds
Tax Increment fund balances
The tax increment funds can only be expended for purposes authorized by the underlying TIF
authorization. The estimated balances in each respective district are as follows:
Name TIF Authorization Total
TIF district 3 Redevelopment 164,600
TIF district 8 Redevelopment 174,656
TIF district 9 Redevelopment 99,835
TIF district 17 Renewal + Renovation 255,150
Staff will be presenting to the City Council in the fall of 2014 various options regarding use of
the funds for community redevelopment.
The alternative is for the City to refund the balances to the County for redistribution to the tax
jurisdictions; the City share of the redistribution would be approximately $230,000. There are
no restrictions on how the redistribution can be expended.
Southfork Interest Rate Reduction Loan
The $2.2 million Southfork Interest Rate Reduction Loan proceeds can be appropriated to fund
any of the HRA’s authorized purposes, such as blight reduction, housing projects for low and
moderate income housing and related improvements, and other urban renewal projects such
as repair and rehabilitation of buildings, reduction of traffic hazards or other land uses
detrimental to the public welfare, and acquisition of property to remove unhealthful,
unsanitary, or unsafe conditions.

MUNICIPAL RESERVES FUND
Fund Description
The Municipal Reserves Fund is used to account for the City’s risk management program
relating to general liability, excess liability, property and casualty insurance costs which are
charged to other City funds on a cost reimbursement basis.
Uses of Funds
Under the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 10, risk
management activities of a government entity can be accounted for in either the General Fund
or an Internal Service Fund, if one fund is used. The City uses the Internal Service Municipal
Reserves Fund to budget such costs. Under this model, the various City funds receive a charge
from the Municipal Reserves Fund, and all costs (premiums, claims, and related expenses) are
reflected in a single fund. This allows for better accountability and monitoring of the City’s risk
management costs.
Sources of Funds
The primary source of revenue is charges from other funds. In order to maintain the current
funding ratios, the 2015 transfers from other fund is projected to increase 8.9%.
Fund Balance
The fund balance is a reserve for claims exceeding LMCIT coverages or sustained periods where
claims exceed budget estimates.
Other Financial Information
The City does not purchase Excess Liability Coverage insurance.
