<br />Memorandum <br />To: Open Space Advisory Board <br />From: Ember Brignull, Open Space Manager <br />Date: February 12, 2018 <br />Re: Discussion Item 9: OSAB Recommendations Regarding the <br />2021-2022 Operational Budget and 2021-2027 Capital Budget <br />Purpose: <br />The purpose of this discussion item is to gain feedback from OSAB regarding the Operational and <br />Capital Budgets for 2021 forward. For the Operational Budget, OSAB will identify potential increases, <br />decreases, or additions to existing level of service as it relates to the 2021-2022 Operational Budget. <br />OSAB will also be reviewing the Capital Budget by evaluating a list of capital projects, adding new <br />capital project ideas, and then prioritizing each capital project. Staff will do a brief overview of each <br />capital project and be available to answer questions. Please come to the February meeting with each <br />capital project prioritized numerically 1-27 with one (1) being most important. <br /> <br />Background: <br />Operations Budget <br />For the Operational Budget please review the following worksheet: “2021 & 2022 OSAB Operational <br />Budget Recommendations-PLANNING WORKSHEET”. The worksheet is broken out by subprograms, <br />which are further described by the subprogram’s “objective”. In most cases, examples of appropriate <br />day-to-day projects or personnel requests for each subprogram are identified in red text. OSAB will <br />review these subprograms and list their thoughts on what activities they would like staff to increase, <br />decrease, or add as new efforts or new personnel requests (green text). Board members will share <br />these ideas at the February meeting and finalize their recommendation. <br /> <br />Capital Budget <br />For the Capital Budget please review the following worksheet: “2021-2027 OSAB Capital <br />Improvement Project Recommendations (CIP) - PLANNING WORKSHEET”. Capital Projects are defined <br />as follows: <br /> <br />A Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is a planning process that identifies the capital <br />investments a local government intends to make over a period of time. Capital, for a local <br />government, constitutes the facilities and materials needed to perform the jurisdiction’s <br />functions and to produce and deliver the services expected of it. Generally speaking, capital <br />improvements are assets that are unique, fixed in place (relatively), permanent or which have <br />long useful lives, and are (relatively) expensive. The City’s capitalization threshold is $5,000. <br /> <br /> <br />PARKS & RECREATION <br /> <br />19
