FY20 BUDGET
CITY OF PEARLAND
PUBLIC SAFETY INVESTMENT In Pearland we have grown the Public Safety staff, resources, training and technology to be even more modern and professional, a long-standing Pearland commitment. Expenditures for Police and Fire in FY20 represents 56.1% of the $86.2 million in General Fund expenditures at $48.3 million. The $48.3 million funding level for Police and Fire is $3.1 million more than FY19 budgeted level. This is driven by increases in staffing levels, compensation levels and capital replacements. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS Our Capital Improvements Plan has $652.8 million of projects in the next five years. The vast majority, $387.3 million is needed for water and waste water improvements. Those needs are repaid by users of the systems, from the City’s Enterprise Fund that operates as a business, charging rates to ensure the fund is self-supporting. For the remaining $265.5 million, $129 million is for new street widening or extensions across Pearland. Improving quality of life is also a key driver in the City’s 2020 Budget.
BUDGET OVERVIEW An organization’s purpose drives continuous innovation and improvement, moving our City ever-forward. Everyone has their own take on what lies at the heart of public service. Here are just a few examples from City of Pearland employees: Community building, providing vital public services to all fairly and equitably. Make the lives better for our citizens. Create an attractive and safe community where citizens and businesses will realize value in establishing roots. This year, the City kept “prepare” at the center of the conversation in developing the Fiscal Year 2020 (FY20) Budget; ensuring effective investment, growth and development of core services that make our community receptive to changes.
