2.9% increase to correspond with the consumer price index and 13.8% to align the 1999 budget with <br />actual 1998 growth and projected 1999 growth. The 1999 budget amount is 86.8% above the sales <br />tax budget five years prior. <br />Sales Tax <br />Budget <br />$8,000,000 <br />$6,000,000 <br />$4,000,000 <br />$2,000,000 <br />$- <br />N. a <br />ON o' ON o` <br />Cs a, a` o' <br />Year <br />o' <br />o' <br />o' <br />Multi -Year Goals/Policies <br />During the 1999 goal setting process, many general policies were defined that will impact our <br />community in 1999 and beyond. These include: <br />• Maintain Louisville as a "Safe City". <br />• Continue proactive style of law enforcement/crime prevention. <br />• Accelerate debt reduction. <br />• Continue with open space acquisitions. <br />• Continue to look for ways to reduce residential taxes and fees. <br />• Continue to invest in the City's work force. <br />Other policies that help to shape the budget are: <br />• The City of Louisville will seek to provide only those public services which citizens <br />require or support, and for which they are willing to pay. <br />• The minimum unreserved, undesignated fund balance of the General Fund shall be <br />calculated annually at 15% of the current operating budget. <br />• Growth indices will be established to control and/or limit the growth of government. <br />These indices will be tied to the Denver/Boulder consumer price index and growth <br />ratios relevant to the specific departments. These could include growth in <br />population, new water taps or actual valuations. <br />• Capital projects will be a main focus, with continued investment in infrastructure and <br />improvement of quality of life as primary goals. <br />These goals provided the basis for the 1999 budget. Specifically, they were addressed as follows: <br />• One new police officer was added, to begin mid -year; new police vehicles and <br />equipment were added totaling $228,000. <br />
