Budget Considerations

Budget enhancements include a 3% cost of living adjustment for all full-time employees, an increase for up to 5% employee merit increases and an anticipated increase in health insurance premiums. The 2023 budget did not include an adjustment to the structure of the compensation plan. Other additions to the Public Works Department budget for 2023 include continued funding for the ongoing Church Street Bridge reconstruction capital project, as well as projects to complete sidewalk extensions in Northstar subdivision, waste water treatment plant improvements, a booster station along Smiley Road, stormwater engineering analysis, replacement of a 2003 Skid Steer with a milling attachment, and construction of a new water tower at the Tonganoxie Business Park. These purchases will be financed through the shared contribution of the City's utility funds and other funding sources. Street maintenance and preservation activities funded by a share of the infrastructure sales tax revenue will also include an allocation of $175,000 in 2023, marking the sixth consecutive year with at least $100,000 in infrastructure sales tax revenue dedicated to street infrastructure maintenance and preservation.
