Explanation Of Significant Budget Variances
2023 Adopted Budget vs. 2022 Projected Actual
• The 2023 budget for Salary and Benefits includes funding for the performance pay adjustment of 5% and healthcare cost increases.
• Purchased services are increasing due to inflation and a cost recovery study for stormwater rates.
• The number and size of capital projects are down in 2023 due to normal fluctuations in construction requirements.
• The Fund Balance decreases just over $850,000 (37.9%) due to the timing of receipt of developer contributions.

Performance Measures By Strategic Goal
2019202020212022
OUTPUT MEASURE: Infrastructure inspections
Inspections ensure soundness and function, are necessary per the town’s MS4 permit, and establish an annual work plan for staff to perform vital maintenance and repairs.
OUTPUT MEASURE: Maintenance activities
Routine, preventative and corrective maintenance ensures function and sustainability of the Town’s stormwater system. Maintenance needs and activities are generated from inspections, observations, and reported issues.
OUTPUT MEASURE: Development project inspections
These inspections are an indicator of the amount of stormwater infrastructure that is being constructed by developers, requiring Engineering/Public Works staff to oversee and inspect that work.
Measure: 1,700+2,000+2,000+2,000+
OUTPUT MEASURE: Grading permits issued
Grading permits are an indicator of the number of new construction sites each year that require environmental monitoring and oversight by Engineering staff.
Measure: 34 35 35 30
