In May, the plans are <br />reviewed and the annual budget process begins. <br /> <br />Childs said New Brighton's symbols of success are closely related to the <br />City's financial achievements. The proposed 1992 Budget will continue all <br />existing programs and allow for the addition of computer assisted <br />dispatching for public safety and expansion of the sealcoating program. <br /> <br />In 1992, the City will need additional taxes to replace the $150,000 loss <br />of State aid and $93,100 for street improvement costs. The proposed <br />1992 net levy is $1,978,100. and is $14,000 less than the original levy <br />amount submitted to Ramsey County in September. New Brighton's fiscal <br />disparities revenues were reduced due to Minneapolis and St. Paul's <br />decreased commercial property values. <br /> <br />Property taxes, state aids, customer charges and other sources are used <br />to finance the budget. One dollar of property taxes is divided into: 130- <br />New Brighton, 500 - school district, 330 - Ramsey County and 40 - area <br />programs. New Brighton's tax rate for the city share of property taxes is <br />the second lowest among 31 metro cities with population over 20.000. <br /> <br />Finance Director Margaret Egan said Ramsey County determines property <br />values by inspection and by evaluation of recent sales ratios. Some New <br />Brighton property values have seen increases or decreases. but the norm <br />showed no change. <br /> <br />Soecial Order of <br />Business <br /> <br />Report 91-241 <br /> <br />Consent Agenda <br /> <br />St. John Church <br />Gambling License <br />Report 91 ~243 <br /> <br />Doherty's Pizza <br />Report 91-244 <br /> <br />Public Hearina <br /> <br />1992 Annual <br />Budget and Tax <br />Levy <br />Report 91-245 <br />ResolutionS1-103 <br />
