Dear CSMFO Members, I would like to make a comparison of revenue sources and
services provided by cities. I appreciate any help you can give me by
August 25. I will share the results of this survey.
Please provide the percentage of revenue received in your General Fund
during your 1998/99 fiscal year from the following sources:
% Sales Tax
% Property Tax
% Transient Occupancy Tax
% Business Tax
% Interest Income
% Developer Fees
% Franchises
% Other
My city supports the following services in whole or partially with revenues
collected in the General Fund:
Yes [ ] no [ ] Police
Yes [ ] no [ ] Fire
Yes [ ] no [ ] Street Maintenance
Yes [ ] no [ ] Library Services
Yes [ ] no [ ] Parks & Recreation Services (including
Lifeguards)
Yes [ ] no [ ] Planning/Building
Yes [ ] no [ ] Engineering
Yes [ ] no [ ] Admin Services (City Admin, City Clerk,
Finance,
Personnel, City Council, Legal)
Yes [ ] no [ ] Information Systems
Note: If you have Internal Service Funds set up to recover any of these
costs from the General Fund, please answer yes.
Again, I thank you for your help and I will share the answers I receive.
