Budget Process
Page 4
The City Council and staff engage in a thorough budget process each year in order to present
a fair and balanced budget for the citizens of Oak Park Heights.
1. The annual budget process commences in June/July of each year with the Finance Director
distributing budget worksheets to the department heads for completion. The City Council
is requested to inform the Finance Director of any special requests they may have for the
budget.
2. The department heads determine the anticipated expenditures and budget requests for the
upcoming year. These requests are submitted to the Finance Director and Administrator
for review by the end of July.
3. The Finance Director compiles a draft of the preliminary budget and submits it to the
City Council.
4. The City Council schedules workshops for discussion and review of the preliminary
budget. There are usually 2 to 3 workshops held during the month of August and the first
week in September. All workshops are public meetings and the public is welcome to
attend.
5. After all input and requests have been considered, the Finance Director makes revisions
to the preliminary budget and submits it to Council for approval of the proposed budget
and tax levy. Per Minnesota State Statute this must be completed and certified to the
County no later than September 30.
6. The City Council sets the date for the Truth in Taxation meeting requirements. The City
is required to hold a meeting in which the public is allowed to speak and the budget and
levy is discussed. The hearing may be a part of a regularly scheduled meeting. The dates
must be certified to the County no later than September 30.
7. Council conducts additional workshops to discuss any additional changes to the budget
due to updated revenue and/or expenditure information, i.e. insurance rates, contract fees,
etc.
8. The Truth in Taxation meeting is held.
9. The final budget and levy must be certified to the County by December 28, 2018 and to
the Minnesota Department of Revenue after the levy is adopted.

General Fund Revenues
Historically the City relies on tax revenue to fund the City’s budget. Other sources of
revenues are limited due to the nature of city business. State and Federal government
regulations limit the ability to raise additional revenues, such as charges for licensing and
permits. The 2019 budget is supported by a $5,090,246 tax levy or 92.24% of the total
revenue budget. Some factors affecting revenues are:
 Revenues from Licenses and Permits have increased due to expected development
for commercial and housing in 2019
 Intergovernmental Revenue decreased primarily due to the loss of the Small Cities
Grant from the State
 Other Revenue, includes funding for the School Liaison Officer and in 2019 has
been increased to reflect time billed for general police protection such as
attendance at football games.
The following is a summary of the revenue dollars which fund the city operations from
2016 through budgeted 2019.
General Fund Revenue Summary
The debt levy is budgeted for in the General Fund and transferred to Debt Service Funds to
make the debt payments for the various bond issues. For 2018, the debt levy of $579,000
was added to General Fund Levy with a corresponding transfer expenditure of $579,000 to
the debt service funds.
The total 2019 Revenue Budget is $5,597,222. This is a decrease of 3.55% or $207,937 under
the 2018 Revenue Budget. The 2019 Tax Levy of $5,090,246 is a decrease of $238,255 or
4.47% decrease from the 2018 Tax Levy of $5,328,501.

The following chart shows the percentage of revenue sources to fund the 2016 and 2017
expenditures and the budgeted amounts for 2018 and 2019.
Tax Abatement adjustments from the county for commerical properties during 2016– 2017
have reduced the amount of revenue that the city collects annually. The total amount of
abatments for 2018 is not reflected in the above percentages nor in the revenue summary as
the total amount is unknown at this time. However, major adjustments are forthcoming
during 2018 and 2019 due to the County granting reductions in property values for 2015-
2019 on petitioned commercial properties in the City. The estimate for 2018 at this time is
$40,000 of tax abatements. The petitions from the commericial properties continue to be filed
and if granted, may have an impact on the future tax revenues collected.

Tax Levies, Tax Capacity and Local Tax Rate
Tax Levies
The proposed payable 2019 levy for the City of Oak Park Heights that was submitted to
Washington County for the TNT parcel specific notices was $5,280,246. Since the
preliminary adoption of the tax levy, changes have been made to reduce the tax levy. This
was due to the values of Xcel Energy being reduced by $19,653,600 a 7.6% reduction. The
reduction would have a noteworthy impact on the City’s tax capacity and therefore increase
residential property taxes between 3.2% and 6.4% depending upon the value of their home.
Due to the fact that this reduction of value occurred after the preliminary tax levy was
adopted, the TNT notices mailed to the property owners would be incorrectly stating that
property taxes for the City would remain the same and have a 0% increase for 2019. It was
decided to reduce the tax levy by $190,000 to $5,090,246 to try and achieve the matching
information that was mailed in the TNT notice. This was achieved with additional budget
cuts and a decision to utilize $203,666 of the unallocated General Fund Balance to
supplement the 2019 Budget.
The tax levy of $5,090,246 includes the amount for operations of $4,511,246 and the general
obligation debt levies of $579,000. Beginning in 2012 the City included the total Special
Debt Levy in the General Tax Levy as a planning strategy should levy limits be implemented
by the state. This would allow the City to build its tax base from which levy limits are
calculated on. The comparison levy for 2018 and 2019 is as follows:
2018 2019 Inc (Dec)
General Fund $4,725,501 $4,511,246 $(214,255)

A Summary of the proposed decrease of the levy for 2019 is made up of the following changes

Tax Capacity
The City’s estimated 2019 tax capacity value is $9,607,799 (adjusted for the change in Xcel
values) This represents a 3.2% increase in tax capacity value over the 2018 final value of
$9,305,847. This value is used to calculate property taxes for individual properties. The total
tax levy is distributed over the total tax capacity of all the properties.
Tax capacity value is market value, adjusted for the Market Value Homestead Exclusion,
multiplied by the class rates. Class rates are established by the State of Minnesota and have
not changed since 2002.
The current class rates for residential property is 1% of taxable market value for the first
$500,000 of value and then 1.25% on the remaining value of the property – Example of a
$250,000 home’s tax capacity value calculation is as follows:
The current class rates for commercial property is 1.5% of market value for the first $150,000
of taxable market value and then 2% on the remaining value of the property – Example of a
$250,000 and a $600,000 commercial business tax capacity is calculated below.

The median market value for residential property is estimated to have increase by 7.10% for
2019 as compared to 2018. Commercial Property increased 2.5%, and Public Utility values
have decreased by 7.6%.

The Total Tax Capacity for 2018 and 2019 Tax Years is calculated in the following chart:
The Tax Capacity is composed of Residential, Commercial and Public Utility properties.
The graph reflects the 2017/2018 values (latest available) by each class of property.
A change in valuation in anyone of the separate classes can have an impact on the remaining
properties. The downward adjustment of 7.6% to the Public Utilities with the 7.1% increase
in residential properties values for 2019 is estimated to shift the share of the tax capacity for
residential properties from 30.41% to 32.77%. This calculates to a 3% - 6% increase in
property taxes for residential taxpayers.
The unique total tax capacity of the city that is shared by residential, commercial and public
utility on approximately 1/3 basis for each. The result of this shared capacity for residential
property means that 2/3 of the tax burden is shared by the commercial property along with
the public utility, Xcel Energy.
Local Tax Rate
The City’s Tax Rate for the general levy for 2019 is estimated to be 50.139% per $1,000 of
tax capacity value. This represents a decrease of 7.9% from 2018 rates of 54.462%.
The Tax Rate is applied to the tax capacity value of the property to calculate the property
taxes due. An increase in tax rate would mean an increase in taxes if the tax capacity value

of the property remained the same from one year to the next, while a decrease in tax rate
should decrease the taxes.
With the proposed General Fund budget of $5,800,888 supported by a tax levy totaling
$5,090,246 - residential properties in the City will see no change in their city taxes. This
decrease is a direct result of reductions to the 2019 Budgeted Expenditures and use of Fund
Balance to balance the 2019 budget. See the following comparison of taxes for a Median
Value Oak Park Heights Residence.
Utility Funds Revenues and Expenditures
WATER UTILITY
Operating expenditures in the Water Utility Fund for 2019 budget increased by 3% to
$402,010. Capital Expenditures increased to reflect the adjustments in transfers to the
Renewal and Replacement Capital Fund which reflect the actual deprecation. This amount
increased due to the replacement of water infrastructure in the past few years. City policy is
to transfer and amount to the Capital Project Fund that is equal to the depreciation expense
for the current year. This is to assist in the cost of future infrastructure replacements. Rates
were increased by 10.0% to meet the needs of the Water Fund for 2018. The expected revenue
for 2018 and 2019 is enough to support the budgets and no rate increase is necessary.
SEWER UTILITY
The Sewer Utility Fund expenditures for 2019 are anticipated to decrease $66,039, -8.86%
as compared to 2018. Charges from Metropolitan Council Environmental Services were
decreased $79,021 or 15.06%. This was the result of a correction by MCES to the flow data
for the City. Corrections to the City’s billings were made from 2013-2018. Sewer Rates
were increased in 2018 based on the incorrect billing from MCES for that period. The MCES
credit of $103,430 for 2018 incorrect billings was refunded to the City’s sewer customers
with a onetime $80 rebate. The increase in sewer rates for 2018 generates surplus revenue to
support the expenditures for 2019. It is recommended to decrease the rates for 2019.
STORM WATER UTILITY
The Storm Sewer Utility Fund revenues will remain the same for 2019, while expenditures
are expected to decrease $26,895. This decrease is due to a reduction in funds needed to
support the Comprehensive Plan Study. The study is near completion and should require no
additional funding from the Sewer Utility. There is no proposed change to rates for 2019.

Debt Service Funds
As of December 31, 2018 the City will have outstanding debt, including interest, in the
amount of $7,729,087. The following chart reflects the future scheduled debt payments for
the following bond issues:
The city sold $5,140,000 Advance Refunding Crossover Bonds to prepay the GO Capital
Improvement Bonds of 2008. This reduced the future scheduled tax levies for debt by
$495,000. The 2008 Bonds were called and paid in 2016. The Refunding bonds are
scheduled to be retired in 2028.
The G.O. Capital Improvement Bonds of 2009 were issued in 2009 to provide additional
financing for the construction of the City Hall. This bond is scheduled to be repaid by a
General Obligation Debt Levy. The bonds are scheduled to retire in 2019. The City called
the bonds in 2018 and paid them in full.
During 2014 the City issued $3,775,000 General Obligation Bonds for the 2014/2015 Street
Reconstruction projects. This bond is scheduled to be repaid by General Obligation Debt
Levy, Special Assessments, and a transfer from the Water Utility Fund. The bonds will be
paid off in 2025.
