CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS
ANNUAL PROGRAM OF SERVICES
TO THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL:
On behalf of staff, I respectfully submit to you the FY 2010-11 Annual Program of Services. The
economic circumstances surrounding the planning of this budget placed great financial pressure on the
City's ability to preserve the delivery of core services. While by national standards the recession began in
late 2007, Denton was fortunate to experience mild effects at its onset. However, as the economy
progressed deeper into the recession, the City's revenues began to suffer. Since the 2008-09 fiscal year,
sales tax receipts have declined sharply, peaking with a nearly 19% decline over the same month last year
in October 2009. Ad valorem taxes grew by a mere 0.58% in FY 2009-10. This fiscal year, the City had a
decline of 1.6% in property values. This was the first decline in property values in 17 years.
The magnitude of these General Fund revenue reductions has been the largest obstacle to address in
balancing this budget. At the heart of our fiscal challenges this year was how to achieve the balance
between delivering core services and reduced resources. Fortunately, we responded proactively in early
FY 2009-10 to overcome the continued negative trends in sales tax receipts. We implemented a hiring
freeze and significantly reduced travel and training expenses, resulting in a savings of $1.3 million. In
addition, approximately $546,000 in operational savings for the General Fund were achieved by
implementing the recommendations of the efficiency team. By effectively managing our costs in the
current fiscal year, we positioned ourselves to carry these savings into this more challenging fiscal year.
Still, initial projections early in the budget process indicated a FY 2010-11 revenue and expenditure gap
of over $8.5 million. Through tedious reviews of our operations we were able to reduce expenditures, find
efficiencies, re -organize programs, and develop recommendations for additional revenue to reduce this
gap. As a result, I am pleased to provide the City Council a budget that has reduced the revenue and
expenditure gap approximately $7.3 million to $1.2 million. While we are fortunate to have sufficient
reserves to balance the FY 2010-11 Budget, unless our economic situation improves in the future, further
reductions or revenue increases may be necessary.
While one of the primary goals of the FY 2010-11 Budget is to minimize, to the extent possible, any
negative service delivery impact to the citizens, such impacts will none -the -less occur. The budget
proposes, for example, that we "manage vacancies" to achieve savings of $1.5 million. Maintaining a
variety of vacancies equal to 21.5 positions will likely result in a reduction of service levels. There are,
however, no proposed layoffs, closures or reduced hours for any City parks, libraries, recreation centers
or other City facilities.
Services will be extended to the recently annexed areas of the City. A new transit center, through
collaboration with the Denton County Transportation Authority (DCTA), is progressing forward for a
June 2011 opening bringing commuter rail service to Denton. Additionally, we expect to experience an
expanding economic base by welcoming the initial retail stores in a new retail center, the Rayzor Ranch
development, located on the north side of our City.
The overall FY 2010-11 Adopted Budget is $594.4 million and includes 1,333.93 full-time equivalent
positions (FTEs). A comprehensive summary of the budget is provided in the Budget Overview section
of this document. The key elements of the Adopted Budget include the following:
The budget includes General Fund expenditure reductions of nearly $3 million. Though the
Adopted Budget document shows General Fund revenues decreasing by $1.2 million over the
prior year, the difference is attributed to the manner by which economic development incentives
are now budgeted and accounted for in the document as described in the revenue section of the
Budget Overview.
An additional $1.65 million in funding allocated for street maintenance.
No base rate increases for our Electric or Wastewater customers.
13
DENTON SERVICE
Whatever * It * Takes!
CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS
ANNUAL PROGRAM OF SERVICES
A base rate increase of 9% for our Water customers.
Rate increases in various service categories for our Solid Waste customers.
The creation of anew Airport Enterprise Fund.
The transfer of the Keep Denton Beautiful Program to the Solid Waste Department. A rate
increase of $0.30 per month is tied to the transfer of this program for recycling and refuse
collection customers.
The inclusion of funds to update various development plans (i.e. comprehensive plan, mobility
plans, bicycle master plan, etc).
A combined net increase of 16.12 FTEs for all funds.
No programmed salary increases other than step increases for Police and Fire civil service
employees.
An average 8% increase in employee health insurance premiums.
A 2.323 cent tax rate increase for operations. This tax increase was programmed into our
previous financial forecasts over the past two years. The total tax rate will now be $0.68975 per
$100 of assessed valuation and is just below the effective tax rate of $0.689759. Of this amount,
$0.47088 is provided for operations and maintenance and $0.21887 is provided for debt service.
The FY 2010-11 Adopted Budget has been developed within the context of a five-year financial plan.
The purpose of this approach is to provide a long-term perspective for decisions in the coming fiscal year.
As we develop future forecasts, we will continue to evaluate our ability to sustain balance between
revenues and expenditures.
A long-range financial forecasting tool is also used for each of the City's utility funds. Based on these
forecasts, additional rate increases are planned in the future. However, because of changes in our business
and funding needs, it will be necessary to continually reassess and revise these assumptions annually as
the City moves through the five-year plan. The details of the long-term plan for the City's major
operating funds and their assumptions are contained in this document.
I sincerely thank the members of the Denton City Council for their hard work and dedication to the
citizens of Denton. The input of the City Council and Public Utilities Board has been invaluable in the
preparation of the 2010-11 Budget, Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), and Five -Year Financial Forecast.
Appreciation is also expressed to members of the professional staff, particularly in the Finance
Department for their diligence in the preparation of the FY 2010-11 Annual Program of Services.
This has certainly been one of the most challenging budgets to prepare in the last several years. This
budget is the culmination of months of financial forecast reviews and the development of creative
solutions to respond to the economic downturn. While the overall economy continues to struggle, I am
confident that the City of Denton will continue to grow and flourish in the future. With your support, and
the dedication of our capable and supportive staff, we will ensure that quality services continue to be
delivered to the citizens of Denton.
Sincerely,
George C. Campbell, City Manager

document provides a summary of all budgeted funds, including both revenue and expenditure summaries. Major
budget documents, the budget process, and organization of the budget itself are described below.
MAJOR BUDGET DOCUMENTS
The City of Denton's budget process includes the production of five key documents. It is important to understand
the timing and purpose of these documents in order to fully understand the process itself.
1. The Budget Instruction Manual -February
Prior to budget development and training of departmental support staff, the Budget Instruction Manual
is drafted and completed in February. This document serves as a development guide and includes
sections on annual budget highlights and specific development instructions, as well as, appendices with
rate calculations, format examples, and supplemental forms.
2. Long -Range Financial Forecast -February - July
Three workshops were held in February, June, and July with the City Council to discuss the preliminary
Long -Range Financial Forecast for the city. After these initial meetings, staff prepares a five-year
forecast to address key service areas. The forecast is finalized at the end of July and included in the
proposed budget document.
3. The Budget Overview and Manager's Message -Late July
The Budget Overview and Manager's Message is submitted to the City Council in late July as a part of the
proposed budget. This report summarizes and identifies key issues with regard to revenues and
expenditures for the coming year.
4. The Proposed Budget -Late July
The proposed budget is submitted to the City Council in late July of each fiscal year. This document
represents a balanced version of departmental budget requests versus projected revenues. The
proposed budget is a product of policy as expressed by the City Council and is prepared by the City
Manager.
5. The Adopted Budget- Late September
The adopted budget represents a modified version of the proposed budget after public hearings and
City Council review in August/September. Any changes deemed necessary by City Council to funding
levels or revenue projections are reflected in the adopted budget. Revisions may also be made to reflect
any updates to budget information.

THE BUDGET PROCESS
The City of Denton uses a program -oriented budgeting process. Each budgeting unit or division is given a "baseline"
funding level based upon the previous year's funding level. Any funding request that represents new expenditures
and programs, or that is in excess of adjusted baseline funding, must be submitted as a separate request or
"package."
1. Budget Training for Support Staff/Budget Guideline Review
February is the time when existing budget guidelines, procedures, and forms are reviewed. Changes
may be made to the budget process in order to make budget development more efficient and address
format changes.
Preliminary budget training for departments is available prior to budget kickoff. During preliminary
training, staff is informed of budgeting concepts and the budget process, as well as, given a quick
introduction to the City's budget forms.
During budget kickoff, departments receive the budget instruction manual so that they may have
specific instructions and a review of any changes to the budget process.
2. Long -Range Financial Forecast
Three workshops were held in February, June, and July with the City Council to discuss the preliminary
Long -Range Financial Forecast for the city. After these initial meetings, staff refines the forecast to
address key service areas. The recommended version of the forecast is included in the proposed budget
document that is submitted to the City Council in July.
3. Revenue Projection
The budget revenue projections for the new fiscal year begin early in the current fiscal year. The
projections are made by the departments responsible for the revenues with help from the Finance
Department staff. Projections are based upon consultations with state and local agencies, trend
analysis, anticipated changes in the local and regional economy, and discussions with directly
associated staff members. Although revenue projections are prepared early in the budget process, the
budget revenue analysis continues with departmental budget development and extends until the
budget is adopted based upon any new information.
4. Proposed Budget Development
During budget development, the Finance Department staff work with departments to analyze requests,
provide advice, and lend assistance. Budget requests are based upon a baseline funding level, and any
additional funding is made in the form of supplemental requests.
5. Proposed Budget Analysis/Compilation
Once division and departmental budget requests are completed, the Finance Department reviews and
compiles a preliminary draft of departmental budgets to present to the Management Team, which is
comprised of the City Manager and Assistant City Managers.
Next, a total recommended funding level is determined from both baseline and proposed supplemental
packages. At this time, the funding level is weighed against available resources. A tax rate increase may
or may not be recommended depending upon City Council program priorities and issues previously
expressed in the budget process.

6. City Council Budget Study
The proposed budget, including the Budget Overview, is compiled as soon as possible after final
appraised property value and other data are received. This report highlights and summarizes funding
requirements, major changes in programs, and alternatives for funding.
A budget work session is held with the City Council to review and discuss the proposed budget.
Discussions and study may follow at subsequent work sessions until budget adoption.
7. Public Hearing/Budget Adoption
A public hearing on the budget and two public hearings on the tax rate (if necessary) are held in
September prior to final budget consideration. At the public hearings, citizens may make formal
comments concerning the proposed budget and tax rate.
Budget adoption occurs in September after City Council deliberations and the public hearings. City
Council may take action to modify the proposed budget. The City Council also adopts a tax rate to
support adopted funding levels. Pursuant to City Charter, the proposed budget as submitted by the City
Manager becomes the adopted budget if no City Council action is taken before the end of the fiscal year,
September 30.
8. Compilation ofAdopted Budget/Budget Maintenance
An adopted budget is compiled and published during the first months of the new fiscal year. The
adopted budget in the form of an amended proposed budget is available for public inspection in
December.
Budget maintenance is a year-round activity of the organization. Spending controls consist of budget
holds, position control reviews, and budget transfer authorizations for unbudgeted expenses.
Additional spending control mechanisms include monthly review of expenditures by the Finance
Department.
During the budget process, departments make revenue and expenditure estimates for the current year.
Finally, program goals, objectives, and measures are evaluated during budget development to
determine effectiveness of program activities and levels of appropriate funding for subsequent years.
ORGANIZATION OF THE BUDGET
Included in the Financial Summary section is a schedule entitled "Projected Appropriable Fund Balances." This
schedule provides the projected appropriable fund balances anticipated at the end of each fiscal year. The 2010-11
fiscal year-end fund balance is based on proposed 2010-11 revenue and expenditures. This information will be
most helpful in determining whether fund balances are too high or too low with regard to goals set forth by the City
Council. The General Fund Revenue Summary in the Financial Summary section describes the major revenue
categories for the City of Denton, as well as, the various individual sources of those revenues.
BUDGETARY POLICIES
The City of Denton has developed administrative policies, which govern the formulation and administration of the
annual budget. These administrative policies are incorporated within the City's Administrative Policies and
Procedures Manual.

FINANCIAL STRUCTURE
The financial structure of the budget is organized by funds. A fund is generally defined as a fiscal and accounting
entity which has its own self -balancing set of accounts for recording cash and other financial resources, as well as,
any liabilities or residual equities or balances. Normally, funds are segregated for the purpose of carrying on specific
activities or attaining certain objectives in accordance with special regulations, restrictions, or limitations. However,
when appropriate, funds are made up of departments. The two types of funds utilized in this budget are
Governmental and Proprietary. The specific funds that make up the Governmental Fund type are General Fund,
Recreation Fund, General Debt Service Fund, Tourist and Convention Fund, Police Confiscation Fund, Traffic Safety
Fund, Non -Airport Gas Wells Fund, Parks Gas Well Fund, Tree Mitigation Fund, Public Education Government (PEG)
Fund, McKenna Trust Fund, Park Land Dedication and Development Trust Funds, and Miscellaneous Special
Revenue Funds. The Proprietary Fund types are Electric Fund, Water Fund, Wastewater Fund, Solid Waste Fund,
Airport Fund, Materials Management Fund, Fleet Management Fund, Technology Services Fund, Risk Retention
Fund, and the Health Insurance Fund. Each of the above -mentioned funds operates separately and independently
from one another; therefore, they are budgeted separately and include separate financial statements.
BUDGETED FUNDS
The City of Denton's budget consists of various funds. Each fund represents a specific function and maintains
individual objectives. The City of Denton's budget includes the following funds:
General Fund - The General Fund reflects the City's general service operations such as public safety,
libraries, parks, and streets. The General Fund's two major revenue sources are sales and ad valorem
taxes.
Debt Service Fund - The Debt Service Fund is used to record and control the accumulation of resources for
payment of general obligation long-term debt principal and interest. The City issues debt to acquire or
construct capital assets such as roads or parks for the general benefit of Denton citizens. Resources
include an applicable portion of the ad valorem tax levy and related interest income usable from debt
service.
Special Revenue Funds - Special Revenue Funds are used to account for the receipt of specific revenue
sources that are restricted for expenditures for a specified purpose. Included in the special revenue
funds are: the Recreation Fund, Tourist and Convention Fund, Police Confiscation Fund, Traffic Safety
Fund, Non -Airport Gas Wells Fund, Parks Gas Well Fund, Tree Mitigation Fund, Public Education
Government (PEG)Fund, McKenna Trust Fund, Park Land Dedication and Development Trust Funds, and
Miscellaneous Special Revenue Funds.
Recreation Fund - The Recreation Fund is used to account for the Parks and Recreation programs,
such as children's programs and recreation center programs, which are self-supporting.
Tourist and Convention Fund -This fund reports the receipt and distribution of the City's Hotel
Occupancy Tax, which is levied at 7% of room rental rates. Each October the City Council enters into
contracts with various organizations that will promote tourism and the convention and hotel
industry in Denton.
Police Confiscation Fund - The Police Confiscation Fund is used to record the receipt and expenditure
of confiscated contraband that is used in the commission of a variety of criminal offenses.
Expenditures from this fund are allocated to the Police Department for materials, supplies, and
operations costs.
Traffic Safety Fund - The Traffic Safety Fund is used to record the receipt of citations from red light
camera violations. Revenues from this fund are used for materials to enhance traffic safety
operations in the Police Department and Traffic Department.

Non -Airport Gas Wells Fund - The Non -Airport Gas Wells Fund is used to record the receipt of
royalty, pooling, tax, and lease revenue related to gas wells. Expenditures from this fund will be used
for projects with no ongoing costs.
Parks Gas Well Fund - The Parks Gas Well Fund was established to record the receipt of restricted
gas well revenues on park property. Expenditures from this fund will be used for park system
projects.
Tree Mitigation Fund - The Tree Mitigation Fund is used to purchase, plant, and maintain trees on
public property, to preserve wooded property that remains in a naturalistic state in perpetuity, to
perform and maintain a city-wide tree inventory, and to educate citizens and developers on the
benefits and value of trees.
Public Education Government (PEG) Fund - The PEG Fund provides for the acquisition of production
equipment, capital, and other lawful PEG purposes. PEG fees are remitted to the city on a quarterly
basis from cable subscribers.
McKenna Trust Fund - The McKenna Trust Fund was established by George McKenna in 1959. One-
half of the net income from this fund is distributed to Cook Children's Hospital and one-half of the
net income is distributed to the McKenna Park Trust Fund for use only in maintaining, developing,
preserving, and improving the George McKenna Park in the City.
Park Land Dedication and Development Trust Funds - The Park Land Dedication and Development
Trust Funds are funds received from developers. These fees provide for neighborhood parks and
projects within Y2 to 1 mile radius of the development. The Park Land Dedication funds will be used
on Owsley Park, Preserve at Pecan Creek, Milam, and McKamy-Evers. The Park Development
projects include neighborhood parks at Wheeler Ridge, Preserve at Pecan Creek, Owsley Park, Milam
Park, Mack Park, Cross -timbers Park, North Lakes Park, and McKamy-Evers Park.
Miscellaneous Special Revenue Funds - The Miscellaneous Special Revenue Fund is comprised of the
Animal Control Donation Fund, Police Donation Fund, and Fire Donation Fund.
Enterprise Funds - Enterprise funds are used to account for governmental activities that are similar to
those found in private businesses. The City budget includes Electric, Water, Wastewater, Solid Waste,
and Airport Enterprise Funds. Each fund reflects the services denoted in the title of each fund. The
major revenue source for these enterprise funds is the rate revenue generated from the customers who
receive the services provided.
Internal Service Funds - Internal Service Funds are used to account for the financing of goods or services
provided by one department to another department within the same government organization.
Financing is based on reimbursement of actual costs. The internal service funds are Fleet Management,
Technology Services, Materials Management, Risk Retention, and Health Insurance. Each internal service
fund listed is funded through payments from various City departments for the actual services received
from the specific fund.
Fleet Management Fund - The Fleet Management Fund accounts for the maintenance and repair of
the City's vehicle and equipment fleet.
Technology Services Fund - The Technology Services Fund provides computer services such as
programming, support, training, and maintenance of the City's computer resources and telephone
maintenance.
zz

Materials Management Fund - The Materials Management Fund is comprised of purchasing and
warehouse operations. This internal service fund is responsible for procuring goods and services for
City departments and the warehouse maintains an inventory of materials and supplies used by City
departments.
Risk Retention Fund - The Risk Retention Fund records the activities associated with providing
general liability insurance coverage and self funded activities for City operations.
Health Insurance Fund - The Health Insurance Fund accommodates self-insurance operations.
BUDGET BASIS
The budget for the General, Special Revenue, Debt Service, and Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Funds are
prepared on the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under this basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when
they become both "measurable" and "available" to finance expenditures of the current period except where the
accrual basis is specified by generally accepted accounting principles. Expenditures are recognized when the related
fund liability is incurred, except for (1) inventories of material and supplies which may be considered expenditures
either when purchased or when used; (2) prepaid insurance and similar items which need not be reported; (3)
accumulated unpaid vacation, sick pay, and other employee benefit amounts which need not be recognized in the
current period; (4) interest on special assessment indebtedness which may be recorded when due rather than
accrued, if approximately offset by interest earnings on special assessment levies; and (5) principal and interest on
long-term debts which are generally recognized when due. Budgets for the Enterprise and Internal Service Funds
are prepared on the full accrual basis of accounting under which transactions are recognized when they occur
regardless of timing or related cash flows.
ORGANIZATIONAL RELATIONSHIPS
A department is a major administrative segment of the City, which indicates overall management responsibility for
an operation or a group of related operations within a functional area. The smallest organizational unit budgeted is
the division. The division indicates responsibility for one functional area, and in many cases these functional areas
are put together to demonstrate a broader responsibility. When this is done, the divisions are combined to make up
a department.

FY 2010-11 . Budget Overview
GENERAL FUND
The City of Denton maintains a General Fund reserve balance for emergencies. Over the past several years,
that reserve, established at 12-15% of budgeted expenditures (approximately 60 days of operating
expenditures), provided stability and flexibility for the organization. One effect of the national recession is an
increased scrutiny of the financial stability of local governments, and as such, bond rating agencies have
indicated to City staff that a reserve level below 15% would be considered low compared to similarly rated
cities. Therefore, we are now recommending a target fund balance reserve equivalent to 15-20% of budgeted
expenditures, which is more commensurate with similarly rated cities our size. This increased reserve
requirement will address the rating agency expressed preferences, and more importantly, will provide the
City with increased financial flexibility in the future.
The estimated ending reserve balance of $17,676,472 at the end of FY 2010-11 represents approximately
19.6% of budgeted expenditures and is within the new targeted goal of 15-20%. This balance, however, is
expected to slowly decline in the next four years of the financial forecast based on current revenue and
expenditure assumptions. The General Fund will use $1,231,233 in reserves for FY 2010-11 which is
significantly lower than previously projected. The chart below provides a listing of the ending fund balances
for the past two years, a projected balance for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2010, and the projected
balance for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2011. As detailed in the chart, the City continues to draw our
reserve balances down, but the projected ending reserve for FY 2010-11 Budget falls well within the new
target level. It is a long-term goal to achieve more balance between operating revenues and expenditures and
to reduce using reserves.
25

The key General Fund revenue sources are discussed below. The first chart shows the source of our major
revenues.
Approximately one-third of the total General Fund revenue is generated from property taxes. In the FY 2009-
10 Budget, the City experienced a 0.58% increase in certified taxable values over the prior year. This marked
the second consecutive year of considerably lower property tax value growth than what had been
experienced in prior years. Unfortunately, property values for the FY 2010-11 Budget declined by 1.55% over
the prior year resulting in a revenue loss to the City. The last time the City experienced negative appraised
growth was 1993. The chart below provides a 10-year historical trend on property tax growth.
The 2010 certified value decreased by a net $98 million from the 2009 certified value. Analysis of the
decrease shows there was $135 million in new value added to the appraisal roll due to new growth and
construction. However, there was an overall decline in value due to a loss of $233 million from reappraisals
and new exemptions.
In 2009, the City Council approved an increase in the over 65 property tax exemption in $5,000 increments
over a five-year period until a $50,000 exemption level is reached. The City Council approved continuing the
26

CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS
ANNUAL PROGRAM OF SERVICES
increase for FY 2010-11. The current exemption level will be increased from $30,000 to $35,000 this fiscal
year.
In financial forecasts from the previous two years it was anticipated that a 2.5 cent tax increase would be
necessary for FY 2010-11. However, as a result of better than expected property values, a property tax
increase of only 2.323 cents is being recommended as part of this budget. This increase was anticipated prior
to the current economic downturn. Considering the decrease in appraised property values, this increase is
necessary now, more than originally thought. This rate of 2.323 cents is expected to generate $1.45 million in
revenue and will keep the rate below the effective tax rate.
The accounting for the City's ad valorem tax rebates will be changed in this fiscal year. The City currently has
ad valorem tax agreements with Sally Beauty, Jostens and Granite Properties. In past budgets, these
agreements have been netted from the overall ad valorem tax revenues. For FY 2010-11, the expense for
providing these agreements will no longer be netted against ad valorem receipts and will be budgeted in the
Economic Development budget, which will appear as an increase to the budget. However, it is not a true
increase and is presented in this manner to more properly reflect the annual expense. The total expenditures
for ad valorem tax rebates are estimated at $96,000. A similar approach will be applied to sales tax rebates,
discussed further in this document.
Below is a 10-year history on certified assessed values and tax rates.
The second largest revenue source in the General Fund is sales tax receipts. Beginning in FY 2008-09, sales
tax receipts started to decline in the third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year. Cumulatively, sales tax
receipts declined by 4.54% compared to FY 2007-08. This decline has continued through FY 2009-10, with
receipt estimates expected to be 5% below the FY 2008-09 actual amount.
The FY 2010-11 Budget estimates sales tax collections will be $21,620,659, 5.47% above the FY 2009-10
actual. However, base level collections are only expected to increase by 2% compared to the prior year. The
remainder of the increase is related to the process of accounting for the City's economic development
agreements for sales tax rebates. In past budgets, the City has netted these sales tax rebates from the overall
sales tax revenues. Like the ad valorem tax rebates above, we are now budgeting sales tax rebate agreements
in the Economic Development budget as an expense. In doing so, this will provide a more clear picture of the
27
DENTON SERVICE

ANNUAL PROGRAM OF SERVICES
cost and benefit for these agreements, estimated at approximately $1.79 million combined for Denton
Crossing, Unicorn Lake and the new Rayzor Ranch development. It is important to note that while this change
is being made for the budget document, there is zero net effect on the financial forecast. While the City is
fortunate to have growth with new commercial properties, we still remain cautious about predicting large
increases in the City's sales taxes. Accordingly, only 2% sales tax growth assumptions are included in the
financial forecast. The following chart illustrates a 10-year history of sales tax collections.
*Sales Tax is an estimated amount.
Nearly 15% of the General Fund's revenues are related to franchise fees. Typically assessed as a percentage of
gross revenues, the purpose of the franchise fee is to provide compensation to the City in return for allowing
utilities to access the City's right-of-way. The FY 2010-11 Budget includes $12.84 million in franchise fees
from various utilities operating in the City, including city -owned utilities. In FY 2009-10, estimates are below
budgeted levels across all utility funds due to lower revenues in these operations. In addition, as a result of
lower growth estimates, future forecasts for all utilities are also expected to be lower than previously
estimated.
The City Council recently adopted a revision to the gas well ordinance establishing a new gas well inspection
program. The FY 2010-11 Budget includes funding to implement these changes and also reflects the revenue
associated with the new inspection fees and permitting. Collectively, these additional revenues are only
expected to recover the costs associated with providing these enhanced services including the addition of
four full-time employees.
Non-resident fees for library users will switch to a flat rate of $50 per year from the current tiered structure.
This is expected to generate an additional $9,416 in revenue from previous projections. Approximately 865
library users are estimated to pay this non-resident fee for unlimited use of the City's libraries.
Over the past several years, the Airport has continued to expand its operations and has reached a point that
resources generated at the Airport are sufficient to fully cover expenses as well as fund implementation of the
new Airport Business Plan. As a result, the FY 2010-11 Budget recommends creating an Airport Enterprise
Fund that will include a franchise fee, return on investment (ROI), and indirect cost of service transfer
28

ANNUAL PROGRAM OF SERVICES
payment to the General Fund totaling $262,250. In addition, the Airport Gas Well Fund will be included as a
component of the new Airport Enterprise Fund.
Another new revenue enhancement is related to $177,817 in savings from the sale of bonds. The June 15,
2010, bond sale represented a change in the manner by which the utility operations acquire debt to fund
capital improvements by selling debt using General Obligation bonds instead of Revenue bonds. Using the AA
credit rating of the General Obligation bonds, rather than the A+ credit rating of the utility system bonds, the
City was able to lower the interest costs to the Utility funds. As such, this budget to transfers $177,817 of
these savings from the utility funds to the General Fund as directed by the Audit/Finance Committee and City
Council. In the future, a formal policy will need to be developed to capture these savings. Over the next few
months, staff will discuss various possibilities with the Public Utilities Board, Audit/Finance Committee
and/or City Council to develop a recommendation for the best method to recover these savings to the General
Fund. These recommendations will then be incorporated into the FY 2011-12 budget process.
The General Fund will also receive revenue enhancements from a variety of operational changes. An urban
forester position will continue to operate from the General Fund, but will be partially funded from a transfer
in from the Electric Fund in the amount of $58,885, which represents 75% of the cost for this position. This
position will perform functions on behalf of the General Government and Electric operations, and thus will be
funded through both entities. In addition, work performed on Parks and Recreation Department capital
improvement program projects will be capitalized using bond funds, rather than General Fund operating
funds. This savings is estimated at $108,653. Finally, a transfer in the amount of $112,221 will be realized
from the Risk Retention Fund to pay for the cost of adding an additional senior attorney position.
Staff continues to evaluate current revenues to ensure that fees are appropriately established to recover the
cost of services. Currently, an analysis of Building Inspections fees is being conducted and based on the
results of the study, additional revenue changes may be forthcoming.
The continued decline in sales tax receipts caused staff to evaluate planned expenditures at the onset of FY
2009-10. A hiring freeze and travel and training moratorium were implemented to save $1.3 million in
response to the decline in the City's sales tax collections.
In addition to directed expenditure freezes, a cross-section of employees formed an efficiency team (E-team),
to review operations in the City and look for solutions to increase savings. Through this process, the City was
able to save $546,000 in expenditures to the General Fund. Changes in scheduled replacement of computers,
creating cell phone allowances for employees in lieu of providing city issued cell phones, reducing internal
contracts for services and energy efficiencies were among some of the implemented solutions.
The budget also includes targeted transfers of operations for the Airport and Keep Denton Beautiful
programs. The Airport will be transitioning into an Enterprise Fund this fiscal year. The overall goal for the
Airport is for this operation to be completely self-sustaining. The Airport business plan is being developed to
provide a strategic approach for this goal. The Airport is positioned for growth in the future and has promise
for being an even more important economic tool for the City.
The Keep Denton Beautiful (KDB) program will be transitioned into the Solid Waste Fund, from the Parks and
Recreation Department. This transition was recommended by staff due to the closely tied goals of KDB and
the Solid Waste department. Three FTEs will be moved from the General Fund to the Solid Waste Fund to
continue to support this program. An additional $0.30 per month fee to Solid Waste customers is
recommended to support the KDB program.
29

Through this targeted approach of controlling expenditures and discovering efficiencies, the City was able to
proactively react to the revenue declines. It is important to note that 71% of FY 2010-11 General Fund
expenditures are for personnel costs to provide city services.
The adopted FY 2009-10 five-year financial forecast projected a 2% increase for employees in this fiscal year.
Identical merit increases were programmed each year of the five-year forecast. However, due to a decline in
the General Fund's major revenue sources of ad valorem and sales tax, no compensation increases for either
non -civil service or civil service positions were adopted for FY 2010-11. For police and fire personnel (civil
service), normally eligible step increases will be implemented in FY 2010-11.
Future compensation increases, at 2% annually, have been programmed into the five year financial forecast in
the remaining years.
Below is a summary of compensation increases for non -civil service General Fund employees over the past
five -years:

As stated previously, due to the economic downturn and subsequent lower than anticipated revenue, the
City's ability to fund normal expenditure increases and new requests is challenging. The City's overall goal is
to continue to provide quality services. With this in mind, City Administration's task was to balance the
organizational needs with the available resources.
Due to a projected operating deficit for FY 2010-11, staff developed a number of recommendations to reduce
expenditures. The General Fund budget includes $1,454,361 in savings related to managing vacant positions
in the organization. Over the next year, as position turnover and attrition rates dictate, vacant positions will
be filled according to the organizational needs and priority of the position. By doing so, the City will have the
ability to respond to service demands while continuing to properly manage our resources. These reductions,

ANNUAL PROGRAM OF SERVICES
The FY 2010-11 Budget recommends $1,569,286 in General Fund resources for new programming
enhancements and personnel. In addition, $1,412,540 is recommended to be provided from other funds to
directly benefit operations. As stated previously, the newly annexed areas of the City will receive City services
next fiscal year, and anticipated increases in appropriations have been included in this budget. The breakout
of funding sources and enhancements are detailed in the following sections.
Parks
Right-of-way mowing funding is provided in Parks to manage the newly annexed areas of the City.
Libraries
In the Library Department, funding is provided to hire six seasonal half-time employees. This funding will
reduce the Library's overtime for regular full-time employees, yet still provide continued levels of service
necessary for operations. By reducing overtime, the cost for the new seasonal hires is neutral.
Streets
Increasing street funding for maintenance and repair is a continued priority for the City. The budget provides
$300,000 for funding expenditures related to new annexations in the City. An additional $500,000 is
programmed from General Fund resources to further enhance street maintenance funding. One-time funds
for ongoing street maintenance of $500,000 and bridge and guardrail repair of $350,000 will be funded from
the use of bond interest income and the reallocation of existing bond funds.
Traffic
A fiber optic grant match for traffic ($392,900) will be funded in FY 2010-11. New traffic signals ($70,815) to
be placed in the annexed areas of the City will be funded through the General Fund.

Transportation
Funding for transportation events related to the new opening of the rail station and a quiet zone study are
two new packages recommended for funding.
Police
The salary and benefits costs for the addition of five police officers will be provided from a federal grant,
estimated at $400,000. The other fund support will consist of vehicle purchases and associated equipment for
these new officers. This package is contingent on the receipt of a federal grant. After the FY 2010-11 Budget
was adopted, the City was notified that we did not receive the grant. Therefore, these funds will be used to fill
a police department vacancy associated with the managed vacancy budget reductions previously discussed.
Fire
In Fire Operations, $49,650 is provided for personal protective equipment (PPE). This equipment is required
to be replaced every five -years. Funding will provide 61 replacement sets of bunker gear for the City's
firefighters.
Municipal Court
In Municipal Court, $68,715 is provided for a new collections specialist position. The Office of Court
Administration (OCA) mandates that municipalities with greater than 100,000 population to have a
collections improvement plan (CIP) as part of the Municipal Court. The CIP requires a dedicated staff member
to provide direct support to the program, and the Court is not able to manage this new state mandated
responsibility without the addition of a new position. There is an anticipated revenue offset for the cost of
this position, as defendants who would normally forgo payment on citations and move into warrant status
will be placed on scheduled payment plans. As such, this position is expected to be cost neutral.

Legal
A new position is recommended for the Legal Department. A senior city attorney will be added to the Legal
Department, but will be funded through a transfer from the Risk Retention Fund. The Risk Retention Fund
typically pays for litigation expenses for the City, and this transfer will capture the cost for the additional legal
support. By reducing the need to outsource legal services with the addition of this new position, a cost
savings is anticipated in the Risk Retention Fund.
Code Enforcement
Four new positions will be added to the Code Enforcement Department for the new gas well inspection
program. A gas well administrator, two new gas well inspectors and an administrative assistant will be
responsible for managing this new operation for the City. Expenses are expected to be recovered through
permit and inspection fees.
Other agency contributions represent allocations for the City of Denton to outside organizations for specific
agreed upon purposes. The Human Services Committee received requests totaling $454,213 for FY 2010-11.
The Human Services Committee recommended total funding of $291,424 which is a 1.8% increase from the
FY 2009-10 funding level. This funding is split between support from the Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) and the General Fund. During budget deliberations in FY 2008-09 the City Council increased
the General Fund support for the Children's Advocacy Center to $35,000. This increased funding amount for
the CAC still remains at $35,000 for FY 2010-11. A detailed chart is included which details agency
contributions from CDBG and the General Fund.
The City benefits from a variety of federal, state and local grants. In addition, the City routinely provides
matching funds for various programs. A complete list of grants is provided in the Adopted Budget in the
miscellaneous funds section of the document.
The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) represents the City's five-year plan for infrastructure and equipment
funding. The CIP is reviewed each year to reflect changing priorities and to provide a framework for
identifying capital requirements, the impact of capital projects on operating budgets and project
scheduling/coordination.

ANNUAL PROGRAM OF SERVICES
The General Government CIP includes non -utility projects such as streets, parks, and other general
government facilities that are typically funded through general obligation or certificate of obligation bonds.
Approximately every five -years, the City will appoint a citizen bond committee to make recommendations to
Denton residents on capital improvement needs.
The last bond program was approved by voters in 2005. A new bond program is currently being discussed
and depending on economic conditions, a new bond election may occur after 2013, but the exact timing of this
election will depend on economic factors. In the meantime, the City is collecting data from departments on
possible projects in anticipation for the next bond program. One important note is the funding for the Public
Safety Training Facility. The full amount of debt associated with this facility was originally planned to be sold
in FY 2012-13, but staff is now proposing to issue this debt in phases in order to hopefully preserve the grant
funds that have been awarded for this project. The initial phase of this project is expected to consist of the
construction of a firing range at this facility consistent with the master plan. The City has leveraged $2.34
million in federal funding earmarks for this project and has reserved $2 million in bonds to be sold in FY
2010-11 for this project.
The Utility CIP includes projects that benefit the City's enterprise funds, such as Electric, Water, Wastewater
and Drainage that are funded from non -tax revenue. The Utility CIP for Solid Waste is also included and
reflects the anticipated level of projects to be funded from certificates of obligation. The Public Utilities Board
(PUB) is responsible for developing a recommendation of the Utility CIP to be presented to the City Council
for approval.
UTILITIES
As previously discussed, the Adopted Budget contemplates the transfer of the Keep Denton Beautiful (KDB)
program from the General Fund to the Solid Waste Fund. Solid Waste rate revenue will support the KDB
function and as such the total franchise fee to the General Fund will include a portion of funding associated
with the rate revenue to support KDB. This is consistent with the methodology for assessing the franchise fee
for all other Solid Waste operations. The PUB discussed this recommendation and elected to not approve the
Solid Waste budget, primarily because it included a franchise fee associated with KDB.
Due to the expanded variety of payment methods and slow traffic for in -person payments in Customer
Service, extended evening and Saturday hours will be eliminated. The FY 2010-11 Budget recommends that
the Customer Service hours of operation be reduced to 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday.
Currently, Customer Service operations are open until 7:00 p.m. weekdays and from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
on Saturdays. The savings from this is estimated at $74,000.
ELECTRIC FUND
The FY 2010-11 Electric Budget includes $147,469,327 in revenues and $144,397,734 in expenditures.
The FY 2010-11 Denton Municipal Electric (DME) Adopted Budget includes no base rate increases.

The FY 2010-11 DME Adopted Budget includes no additional FTEs.
The DME budget includes a 3.5% ROI payment and a 5.0% franchise fee payment. The ROI and franchise fee
payment are calculated using an estimated annual average ECA of 3.00 cents/kwh, which is the cap for both
payments set by the Council for FY 2011.
The Electric Fund CIP budget includes funding for the following major capital projects:
Systems Operations Center: $3.1 million
Distribution Substations: $7.0 million
Feeder Extensions and Improvements: $6.3 million
New Residential and Commercial Service: $2.9 million
TOTAL: $19.3 million
WATER FUND
The FY 2010-11 Water Fund Budget includes revenues of $38,166,984 and expenditures of $38,952,688,
including the appropriation of $785,704 of reserves to fund operational and capital project contingencies.
Below is a table illustrating budgeted water sales for FY 2009-10 and projected sales for FY 2010-11.
A 9% rate increase for retail water customers is proposed. The primary reason for the rate increase is related
to lower projected water sales and higher debt service costs associated with capital improvement projects.
Wholesale rates will be updated per their respective agreements.
The Water Department includes an increase of 0.5 FTE. This is attributed to the addition of 0.5 FTE to the
Water Metering Department. Combined with an existing 0.5 FTE, this will provide an additional Water Meter
Mechanic position to perform scheduled water meter replacements.

the General Fund. Staff recommended that KDB be transferred to Solid Waste for a variety of reasons. There
are a number of similarities between the mission of KDB and Solid Waste, including litter prevention,
reduction of waste, and community beautification. As a result, from an operational standpoint, Solid Waste is

the most logical and best fit for the KDB program. In addition, the transfer of the KDB program to Solid Waste
will save the General Fund approximately $264,000 per year. Conversely, the Solid Waste Fund will have to
absorb approximately $356,370 in additional costs related to franchise fee and indirect cost payments to the
General Fund. A rate increase of $0.30 will be required to support this new program in Solid Waste. In the
PUB deliberations, concern was expressed for the additional payment of franchise fees because of this
transfer in operation. While the City Council did consider the PUB concerns, the adopted budget incorporates
the above discussed transfer of the KDB operation into the Solid Waste Fund.
This chart illustrates Solid Waste production.
The following monthly fee increases are recommended to the Solid Waste schedules:
Five additional personnel are budgeted for FY 2010-11:
• 2 equipment operators for processing in the Collection and Demolition Division
• 3 FTEs for the Keep Denton Beautiful Program (Transfer from General Fund -Parks)
The Solid Waste Fund CIP budget included funding for the following major capital projects:
Landfill expansion and capital costs: $2.5 million
Mechanical processing equipment: $0.3 million

TOURIST AND CONVENTION FUND
The Tourist and Convention Fund records the receipt and distribution of the City's Hotel Occupancy Tax,
which is levied at 7% of room rental rates. The City Council Hotel Occupancy Tax Committee is responsible
for determining a recommendation on the allocation of funds annually. Because of the sharp decline in hotel
tax receipts, the FY 2009-10 budget allocation was reduced by 18%. The details of the 2010-11 allocation is
included in the fund level summaries of the adopted budget document.
RISK RETENTION FUND
The Risk Retention Fund is established to record the activities of providing insurance coverage and self -
funded activities for City operations including vehicle, property, general liability and workers compensation
claims. This fiscal year, the Risk Retention Fund will provide a transfer to the General Fund for the cost to
support a new senior city attorney. It is anticipated that this new attorney will relieve our reliance on outside
counsel for litigation purposes. As a result, litigation savings are expected to offset these costs in the future.
HEALTH INSURANCE FUND
When the City switched to a self -funded health insurance plan in 2008, long-term savings were projected for
the Health Insurance Fund. While changing to a self -funded program has provided considerable savings as
expected, the rising cost of health benefits continues to be a concern. The estimated expense for health claims
has risen by 13% over the prior year. Factors impacting this increase include overall medical inflation,
continued high utilization of medical and prescription drug benefits by plan members, and several high cost
or catastrophic claims. As a result, the City Council has directed the staff to open the City's own health and
wellness clinic for employees and dependents on the health insurance plan. Other cities have seen success in
controlling claims costs when opening a private clinic, and the City hopes to similarly control our costs in this
manner. The City plans to have the clinic open in 2011. Another solution the City is implementing is a
wellness incentive program that will tie healthy behaviors to premium dollars.
Last fiscal year, the City utilized a shared -cost approach in addressing the rising health benefit costs.
However, rather than raising employee premiums to cover the entire cost deficit in one year, it was
determined best to phase the increases in over several years. Last year, premiums were adjusted by
approximately 8.5% to capture usage costs in certain benefit coverage categories. FY 2010-11 includes an
additional increase averaging 8% in health insurance premiums. In addition to premium increases, co -pays
for urgent care and emergency room visits will be raised.
MATERIALS MANAGEMENT FUND
The Materials Management Fund is comprised of purchasing and warehouse operations. Materials
Management is an internal service fund responsible for procuring goods and services for City departments,
which is regulated by local, state and federal law. The department is also responsible for the warehousing of
materials and supplies necessary for City departments to serve the community. The department is currently
conducting an efficiency and effectiveness review of its operations. Once this review is complete, the
recommendations will be implemented in the following fiscal year budget.

FLEET MANAGEMENT FUND
The Fleet Management Fund reflects the costs for providing vehicle maintenance and equipment -related
support services to City departments. This internal service fund is comprised of four functional areas,
including vehicle maintenance, fuel purchasing, vehicle parts contract and motor pool administration. The FY
2010-11 budget includes funding to implement an upgrade of the fleet management software.
TECHNOLOGY SERVICES FUND
The Technology Services Fund reflects the costs for providing technology support services to the various City
departments. This internal service fund is comprised of six separate functional areas, including
administration, telecommunications, geographic information systems, application development, user support,
public safety support and reprographics.
The Technology Services Fund reviewed expenses and recommended reductions in service contracts, internal
operations, and has a vacant position that will not be filled in FY 2010-11. A major expense savings was the
delay in the purchase of new PCs for the organization. The savings from the expense reductions will be
distributed accordingly to all funds.
Resources have been set aside to fund a data recovery center in this fiscal year. The undesignated reserve
balance for the Technology Services Fund will provide $250,000 to complete this project.
RECREATION FUND
The Recreation Fund includes fee -based recreation programs and activities that are self-supporting. Fees that
are charged recover the costs associated with the programs they support. Funding is included for new fitness
equipment for all recreation centers, partitions for meeting rooms at all recreation centers, and a pre-
kindergarten program will be added at the Martin Luther King, Jr. Recreation Center. In addition, the Adopted
Budget includes $82,042 for temporary seasonal staffing, the need for which is created by frozen positions in
the General Fund. This additional staffing is required to maintain adequate customer service. The Recreation
Fund balance will be used to pay for these additional costs in FY 2010-11, but it is unlikely that this level of
funding will be available in subsequent years.
POLICE CONFISCATION FUND
The Police Confiscation Fund was established to record the receipt of confiscated contraband and the
expenditures funded by that revenue as approved by the courts.
TRAFFIC SAFETY FUND
The Traffic Safety Fund is comprised of revenues and expenditures associated with the red light enforcement
cameras. The City operated red light enforcement cameras at various intersections across the City. The fine
revenue derived from violations has been earmarked for public safety and new traffic safety enhancements.

AIRPORT FUND
Because the Denton Municipal Airport is projected to be self sustaining, the Airport operations will be a new
enterprise fund in FY 2010-11. The Airport is developing a business plan which will be submitted to the City
Council in August 2010. The construction of a new tower and runway extension has positioned the Airport to
be a major economic engine for the City in the future. Revenues and expenses from the Airport Gas Well Fund
will be included as part of the new Airport Enterprise Fund. New expenditures for the Airport Fund include a
field service worker, landscaping services for the open landscape addition, the reclassification of an existing
field service worker, ramp paving, economic development marketing, and a grant match for the routine
airport maintenance program (RAMP).
$2,500,000 is also included in the Adopted Budget to address the capital project recommendations contained
in the Airport Business Plan. This plan, and the associated capital projects will be presented to the City
Council and Airport Board for consideration in August. The City Council will make the final determination on
the use of these funds following the approval of the business plan.
In addition, as previously discussed, franchise fee, ROI and indirect cost transfers totaling $262,250 will be
paid to the General Fund beginning in FY 2010-11.
SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS
The Tree Mitigation Fund is used to purchase plants and maintain trees on public property. The FY 2010-11
Budget includes $50,000 for contingency purposes.
The Public Education Government (PEG) Fund provides for the acquisition of production equipment, capital
and other lawful PEG purposes. PEG fees are remitted to the city on a quarterly basis. The FY 2010-11 Budget
includes the reduction of the annual Charter Corporation grant of $50,000 and $75,000 in expenses for public
access equipment purchases.
The McKenna Trust Fund was established by George McKenna in 1959. One half of the net income from this
fund is distributed to Cook Children's Hospital in Fort Worth and one half of the net income is distributed to
the McKenna Park Trust Fund for use only in maintaining, developing, preserving, and improving the George
McKenna Park in the City. A new park pavilion, originally scheduled for construction in FY 2009-10, has been
delayed to this fiscal year.
Periodically the City receives donations from the community for special purposes. The Donation Fund
consists of separate donation collections for the police department, fire department and animal control.
Revenue and expenses for these funds will be represented individually for budgeting purposes.
Two new special revenue funds are included in the Adopted Budget this fiscal year. The Parks Land
Dedication and Development Trust Funds are funds received from developers which provide for
neighborhood parks and projects within 1/2 to 1 mile radius of the development or platting. Because of the
specific use of these funds, projects planned for next fiscal year are concentrated in neighborhood park areas
in the community. The Park Land Dedication funds will be used on Owsley Park, Preserve at Pecan Creek and
McKamy Evers. The Park Development funds include neighborhood park development at Wheeler Ridge,
Reserve at Pecan Creek, Owsley Park, Milam Park, Mack Park, Cross -Timbers Park, North Lakes Park, and
McKamy Evers Park.

GAS WELL FUNDS
The City has three gas well funds: Parks Gas Well Fund, Non -Airport Gas Well Fund and the Airport Gas Well
Fund. As stated previously, the Airport Gas Well Fund is now included in the new Airport Enterprise Fund.
The City currently has several producing gas wells located on City owned property and throughout the
community. Because gas well revenue is considered a short-term resource, the expenditures programmed
from these funds for FY 2010-11 will be used to fund one-time needs. These expenditures are consistent with
a City Council established policy that royalty, pooling, tax and lease revenue from gas wells not be used to
fund on -going operational expenses.
The Non -Airport Gas Fund includes expenditures for a grant match for fiber -optics in the Traffic Department
($392,900). The grant match program is an 80/20 grant match opportunity (City provides the 20% of total
project funding) that will allow the City to leverage program funds for the fiber optic communications line to
our traffic signals from the City's traffic operations center. The grant will also allow the City to complete the
design and operation of the automated traffic management system that is currently in place. Overall, this
project will improve mobility in the City through the synchronization of traffic signals and timing.
The Parks Gas Well Fund will use $350,000 to purchase an ultraviolet sanitation system at the Water Works
Park ($100,000), studies of dams at the Lake Forest Park and North Lakes Park ($52,000), playground
installation and reconstruction of two softball fields at the North Lakes softball complex ($80,000), purchase
land near Mack Park ($53,000), construction of the McKamy-Evers bridge ($50,000) and scoreboard
replacement at Evers Park ($15,000).

Whatever * It * Takes!
CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS
ANNUAL PROGRAM OF SERVICES
1. Ad Valorem Tax
The 2010-11 total certified appraised value for the City of Denton is $6,230,117,958 a decrease of 1.55%
over the prior year's certified value. In addition, the ad valorem tax rate was increased by 2.323 cents per
$100 valuation. The new adopted tax rate is $0.68975.
2. Sales Tax
The second largest revenue source in the General Fund is sales tax receipts. The FY 2010-11 adopted
amount for sales tax is $21,620,659, which is 11.2% above the FY 2009-10 estimate of $19,443,434. This
increase is due to a major change in the recording of economic incentives based on sales tax receipts.
Beginning in FY 2010-11, economic incentives will be recorded as an expense in the Economic
Development budget. Because of the volatility of this resource, future years of the financial forecast
assume a conservative 2% growth rate for sales tax receipts.
3. Franchise Agreements
Revenue from franchise agreements is budgeted to increase $257,633, which is a 2.05% increase over the
2009-10 budget. This increase is due to projected returns for franchise agreements in miscellaneous
cable.
4. Service Fees
Revenue from service -related fees is budgeted to decrease $73,366, or 1.22% below the prior year's
budget. One primary reason for the decrease is in the charges to bond funds. In addition, the Airport
revenues from service fees are no longer included, as the Airport has been moved to its own Enterprise
Fund in FY 2010-11. A new service fee has been added for gas well inspections and is anticipated to
generate $198,952 in revenue.
S. Fines and Fees
Overall, fines and fees are budgeted to decrease $814,902, 14.72% below the prior year's budget. The
decrease is related to a projected decline in activity for fines in the municipal court.
6. Licenses and Permits
Revenue from licenses and permits related to development is anticipated to increase $308,815, a 28.05%
increase over the prior year's budget. The increase is attributed to increased activity in the major
planning and development revenue categories, such as certificates of occupancy and building permits. In
addition, a new revenue category is being created for gas well permit fees.
7. Miscellaneous Revenues
Miscellaneous revenue is budgeted to decrease by $479,418, or 29.13% below the prior year's budget.
This decrease is mainly due to lower than anticipated interest income.
8. Transfers
Overall, transfers to the General Fund are budgeted to increase by $820,766 over the prior year budget.
Several additions in cost of service transfers are attributed to the increase. In FY 2010-11, the General
Fund will receive an administrative transfer of $177,817 in from the utilities for administering a bond
sale. The Risk Retention Fund will provide a transfer into the General Fund to offset costs associated with
an additional attorney position responsible for litigation. In addition, the General Fund will receive a
transfer in from the newly created Airport Enterprise Fund for General Fund support.

CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS
ANNUAL PROGRAM OF SERVICES
The General Debt Service Fund accumulates and makes payments of principal and interest on long term debt
secured by the general taxing powers pertaining to the City's jurisdiction. Resources include an applicable portion
of the Ad Valorem Tax Levy and related interest income, as well as transfers from internal service funds for their
portion of the debt service payment.
DEBT MANAGEMENT SUMMARY
A. Debt Issuance. The City will issue debt primarily for the purpose of acquiring or constructing capital
assets for the general benefit of its citizens and to allow it to fulfill its various missions as a city. Debt
may be issued for the purposes of purchasing land or rights -of -way and/or improvements to land, for
construction projects to provide for the general good, or for capital equipment.
B. Types of Debt.
1. General Obligation Bonds (GOs). General Obligation Bonds will be used only to fund capital assets
of the general government and are backed by the full faith and credit of the City and its ad valorem
tax authority. They are not to be used to fund operating needs of the City. General Obligation Bonds
must be authorized by a vote of the citizens of the City of Denton.
Revenue Bonds (RBs). Revenue Bonds will be issued to provide for the capital needs of any
activities where the capital requirements are necessary for continuation or expansion of a service
which produces revenue and for which the asset may reasonably be expected to provide for an
income stream to fund the debt service requirements. Prior to FY 2009-10 the City of Denton issued
utility system revenue bonds for all utility financing needs. Beginning in June 2010, management
elected to discontinue this practice in favor of issuing Certificates of Obligation. The purpose of this
change is to take advantage of interest savings associated with the higher AA bond rating for COs.
3. Certificates of Obligation (COs). Certificates of Obligation may be issued to:
• Finance permanent improvements and land acquisition, the need for which arose
between bond elections
• Finance costs associated with capital project overruns
• Acquire equipment/vehicles
• Leverage grant funding
• Renovate, acquire, construct facilities and facility improvements
• Construct street improvements
• Provide funding for master plans/studies
• Address necessary life safety needs
In accordance with state law, a resolution authorizing publication of notice of intent to issue
Certificates of Obligation shall be presented for the consideration of the City Council. The notice of
intent shall be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the City once a week for two
consecutive weeks with the first publication to be at least fifteen (15) days prior to the sale date.
Certificates of Obligation may be backed by a tax pledge under certain circumstances as defined by
law. They may also be backed by a combination of tax and revenue pledge eligible under state law.
Some revenues are restricted as to the uses for which they may be pledged. Electric, Water,
Wastewater, and Solid Waste revenues may be pledged without limit for Electric, Water,
Wastewater, and Solid Waste purposes but may only be pledged up to $10,000 for non -utility
system purposes.
The life of the obligation will not exceed the estimated useful life of the projects financed.

4. Method of Sale. The City will use a competitive bidding process in the sale of bonds unless the
nature of the issue warrants a negotiated bid. In situations where a competitive bidding process is
not elected, the City will present the reasons why, and will actively participate with the financial
advisor in the selection of the underwriter or direct purchaser.
S. Bidding Parameters. The notice of sale will be carefully constructed so as to ensure the best
possible bid for the City, in light of the existing market conditions and other prevailing factors.
Parameters to be examined include:
• Limits between lowest and highest coupons
• Coupon requirements relative to the yield curve
• Method of underwriter compensation, discount or premium coupons
• Use of true interest cost (TIC) versus net interest cost (NIC)
• Use of bond insurance
• Deep discount bonds
• Call provisions
C. Analysis of Financing Alternatives. Staff will explore alternatives to the issuance of debt for capital
acquisitions and construction projects. These alternatives will include, but not be limited to: 1) grants
in aid, 2) use of reserves, 3) use of current revenues, 4) contributions from developers and others,
5) leases, and 6) impact fees.
D. Disclosure. Full disclosure of operations will be made to the bond rating agencies and other
depositories of financial information including the Electronic Municipal Market Access (EMMA) System,
as well as the Texas Municipal Advisory Council (State Information Depository) as required by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Rule 15c2-12.
E. Rating Agency Communication. The City staff will seek to maintain and improve its current bond
rating so its borrowing costs are reduced to a minimum and its access to credit preserved. The City
staff, with the assistance of financial advisors and bond counsel, will prepare the necessary materials for
presentation to the rating agencies, will aid in the production of Official Statements, and will take
responsibility for the accuracy of all financial information released.
F. Federal Requirements. The City will maintain procedures to comply with arbitrage rebate and other
federal requirements.
G. Debt Limit. The State of Texas limits the ad valorem tax rate to $2.50 per $100 valuation. Denton's
adopted rate of $0.68975 per $100 valuation falls well below this limit.
H. Bond Ratings. Denton's bonds currently have the following ratings:
Moody Standard & Poor's
General Obligation Bonds Aa2 AA
Revenue Bonds Aa2 AA -
These ratings directly affect the cost of debt. The City's policies are focused on issues which maintain high
bond ratings and keep debt costs reasonable.

CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS
ANNUAL PROGRAM OF SERVICES
Denton is a unique community whose diversity gives
it strength. Although Denton is no longer a small
town, there are certain qualities of small town life
that our citizens hold dear. The historic downtown is
the heart of Denton; the square and surrounding
streets are used every day and night as a gathering
place for commerce, civic events and entertainment.
The City of Denton is 94.901 square miles and
strategically positioned within the Dallas/Fort
Worth/Denton region, 37 miles northwest of Dallas
and 35 miles northeast of Fort Worth. Located on the
Interstate 35 corridor at the intersection of I-35E and
I-35W, Denton is 18 miles from DFW International
Airport and 15 miles north of Alliance Airport.
Proximity to these major international transportation
facilities gives Denton an unparalleled advantage.
With an estimated population of 123,802 Denton is a
unique community in a high -growth area, but with a
long history as the county seat and a major city in
Denton County. It was founded in 1857 so that
residents would have a county seat near the center of
the county. Our historic downtown is the heart of
Denton; the square and surrounding streets are filled
every day and night with residents and visitors who
come there for work and shopping, to dine, and to
enjoy civic events, theater and clubs with live music.
Since the 19th century, Denton has been a major
higher education center. It is the home of two major
state universities, the University of North Texas
(UNT) and Texas Women's University (TWU). The
combined student population of these two
universities is approximately 47,000.
Denton is rapidly becoming a major center for
medical services. Its two major hospitals, Denton
Regional Medical Center and Presbyterian Hospital of
Denton, have been joined by a wide range of specialty
hospitals, surgery and treatment centers, and
outpatient clinics. These facilities draw patients from
all over North Texas and from southern Oklahoma.
The City of Denton is also a major banking center.
Several banks have built their new central facilities in
the downtown area and are building branch banks
around the city and the county, while banks based in
small Texas and Oklahoma towns are locating major
centers in Denton.
The City has taken the lead in organizing the
Economic Development Partnership Board (EDPB), a
collaborative effort between the City, Chamber of
Commerce, Denton Independent School District, UNT,
TWU, and North Central Texas College. The EDPB is
implementing a set of strategies and actions to
achieve sustained economic vitality in Denton, with
an emphasis on attracting businesses in need of a
skilled workforce to Denton.
Denton is an employment center, one of only three
cities in the region that have more than half their
residents living and working in the same city (Census
2000).
The City has been a driving force in organizing the
Denton County Transportation Authority (DCTA), the
only regional rail authority organized in a Texas
county that joins a highly urban county with
established transportation authority. DCTA currently
has an express bus service between Denton and
Dallas and will be initiating rail service by 2011.
Denton has a growing municipal airport with over
200 acres available for public/private investment.
The recent installation of the new runway and
taxiway lighting system at the Denton Airport greatly
enhances the safety of Denton -based and visiting
pilots. Controlled by the new FAA -certified air traffic
control tower, the system provides pilots with three
lighting intensities that enable safe runway
environments, day or night, regardless of weather
conditions. The increased safety margins of the
control tower translate to increased visitors,
businesses, growth, and greater prosperity for
Denton.

ANNUAL PROGRAM OF SERVICES
Many performing groups provide Denton with an
endless supply of cultural and entertainment
opportunities. The Greater Denton Arts Council,
Denton Community Theater, Denton Civic Ballet,
Denton Light Opera Company, Bach Society, UNT
College of Music, UNT Dance and Drama Department,
and TWU Dance and Theater Arts Department top the
list. In addition, year-round festivals and events draw
thousands of visitors from outside the Denton area.
Denton offers a myriad of recreational activities. For
boating enthusiasts, there are two large area lakes,
Lake Lewisville to the south and Lake Ray Roberts to
the north, both within 20 minutes of Denton. For race
enthusiasts, Texas Motor Speedway, which is part of
the NASCAR circuit, is just 16 miles south of Denton
on I-35W. The City of Denton maintains 30 parks and
open spaces and eight recreational facilities that offer
expansive leisure opportunities and appeal to
everyone from rock climbers to jazz enthusiasts. The
City Parks and Recreation Department has won the
National Gold Medal Award for Excellence three
times. In May 2003, Denton opened Water Works
Park, an Aquatics Center with indoor and outdoor
pools and a water recreation park - a partnership
between the City of Denton and the Denton
Independent School District.
Community leaders are passionate about planning for
the future. Evidence of that is seen in their approach
to light rail and transit -oriented development,
overwhelming support of bond elections to provide
for road and facility improvements, and the City's
continued commitment to economic development
through business, higher education and government
partnerships.

ANNUAL PROGRAM OF SERVICES
The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) represents the City's five-year plan for infrastructure and equipment funding.
The CIP is reviewed each year to reflect changing priorities and to provide a framework for identifying capital
requirements, as well as to monitor the impact of capital projects on operating budgets and for project scheduling and
coordination.
The General Government CIP includes non -utility projects such as streets, parks, airport, and other general government
facilities that are typically funded through General Obligation Bonds or Certificates of Obligation. Internal service funds
such as fleet services, communications, technology services, and materials management will also utilize the same
financing methods.
The last General Obligation Bond program was approved by voters on February 5, 2005. The remaining $6.219 million
from this program was expected to be sold in the FY 2009/10; however, due to the economic downturn and project
scheduling, those bonds were postponed until FY 2010/11. Approximately every five years the City will appoint a
citizen blue ribbon committee to make recommendations to Denton residents for capital improvement needs. The
criteria listed below serve as the basis for staff recommendations regarding CIP projects related to General Obligation
Bond sales.
1. Public safety, health and life
2. Service demands
3. Legal requirements, liability or mandate
4. Quality and reliability of current service level
S. Economic growth and development
6. Recreational, cultural, and aesthetic value
7. Funding ability
8. Operating budgets
The Utility CIP has historically been funded through Revenue Bonds and includes projects that benefit the City's
enterprise funds such as electric, water, and wastewater. Beginning in June 2010, management elected to discontinue
issuing Utility System Revenue Bonds in favor of issuing Certificates of Obligation. The purpose of this change is to take
advantage of interest savings associated with the higher AA bond rating for COs. The CIP for solid waste is also financed
through the issuance of Certificates of Obligation. The Public Utilities Board is responsible for developing Utility CIP
project and making recommendations to the City Council for approval.

The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) represents the City's plan for development. The CIP is reviewed each year to
reflect changing priorities, to provide a framework for identifying capital requirements, and to assess the impact of
capital projects on operating budgets and the scheduling and coordination of related projects.
The CIP budget appropriates all available programmed funds, planned funding from other sources, and planned
issuances of new General Obligation (GO), Certificates of Obligation (CO) and Utility System Revenue Bonds. Available
programmed funds include unspent and encumbered bond proceeds, internal revenue transfers and outside
contributions. Internal revenue transfers and outside contributions comprise the bulk of planned other funding.
Provided below is a summary of the total FY 2010-11 CIP budget. Further CIP detail for planned issuances is provided

III. Budget Administration
A. Balanced Budget Required. The City of Denton will develop balanced budgets in which current
resources (current revenues plus fund balance) will equal or exceed current expenditures. The City

term debt. The budget will provide for adequate maintenance and replacement of capital plant and

to identify the impact of inflation and other cost increases. The City will automatically revise user
fees when necessary to adjust for the effects of inflation, program changes, and policy changes.

and indirect cost of the activity. Indirect costs include the cost of administration borne by other
operating funds.
The fees shall be reviewed annually and adjusted when necessary to maintain the proper level.

entire balance thereof from one office, department, agency, or organizational unit to another."
(Charter Section 8.07)

the Council as an amendment to the original budget. In every case where such amendment is made, a
copy of the ordinance adopting the amendment shall be filed with the City Secretary, published in the
next issue of the official newspaper of the City, and attached to the budget originally adopted."
(Charter Section 8.08)

submitted to the City Council for approval.
VII. Investment Policy
A. Investment Objectives and Strategies.
It is the policy of the City that, giving due regard to the safety and risk of investments, all available funds
shall be invested in conformance with State and Federal Regulations, applicable Bond Ordinance
requirements, adopted Investment Policy and adopted Investment Strategies.
In accordance with the Public Funds Investment Act, the following prioritized objectives (in order of
importance) in accordance with the Tex. Gov't. Code Sec. 2256.005(d) apply for each of the City's
investment strategies:
1. Suitability - Understanding the suitability of the investment to the financial requirements of the
City is important. Any investment eligible in the Investment Policy is suitable for all City funds.
2. Safety - Preservation and safety of principal are the primary objectives of the Investment Policy.
All investments shall be in high quality securities with no perceived default risk.
Liquidity - The City investment portfolio will remain sufficiently liquid to meet operating
requirements that might be reasonably anticipated. Liquidity shall be achieved by matching
investment maturities with forecasted cash flow requirements and by investing in securities with
active secondary markets. Short-term investment pools and money market mutual funds provide
daily liquidity and may be utilized as a competitive yield alternative to fixed income investments.
235
DENTON SERVICE
Whatever * It * Takes!
CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS
ANNUAL PROGRAM OF SERVICES
4. Marketability - Securities with active and efficient secondary markets are necessary in the event
of an unanticipated cash requirement. Historical market "spreads" between the bid and offer
prices of a particular security type of less than a quarter of a percentage point shall define an
efficient secondary market.
S. Diversification - Investment maturities shall be staggered throughout the budget cycle to provide
cash flow based on the anticipated needs of the City. Diversifying the appropriate maturity
structure will reduce market cycle risk.
Yield - Attaining a competitive market yield, commensurate with the City's investment risk
constraints and the cash flow characteristics of the portfolio, is the desired objective. The goal of
the City's investment portfolio is to regularly meet or exceed the average rate of return on U.S.
Treasury Bills at a maturity level comparable to the portfolio's weighted average maturity in
days. The yield of an equally weighted, rolling six-month Treasury Bill portfolio shall be the
minimum yield objective or "benchmark". Six-month U.S. Treasury Bill information is derived
from the Federal Reserve Statistical Release HAS for constant maturities. A secondary objective
will be to obtain a yield equal to or in excess of a local government investment pool or money
market mutual fund.
The first measure of success in this area will be the attainment of enough income to offset
inflationary increases. Although steps will be taken to obtain this goal, the City's staff will follow
the "Prudent Person" statement relating to the standard of care that must be exercised when
investing public funds as expressed in the Tex. Gov't. Code Sec. 2256.006(a-b). The Investment
Officers shall avoid any transactions that might impair public confidence in the City's ability to
govern effectively. The governing body recognizes that in diversifying the portfolio, occasional
measured unrealized losses due to market volatility are inevitable, and must be considered
within the context of the overall portfolio's investment return, provided that adequate
diversification has been implemented. The prudence of the investment decision shall be
measured in accordance with the tests set forth in the Tex. Gov't. Code Sec. 2256.006(b).
B. Investment Strateg, for or Specific Fund Groups.
In order to better diversify, maximize interest earnings and otherwise meet stated objectives, fund
groups may be combined into one or more internal investment pools. Although fund monies may be
combined into a single asset portfolio, proportional fund ownership will be accounted for separately.
The City maintains separate portfolios for some individual funds orgroups of funds that are managed in
accordance with the terms of this Policy and by the corresponding investment strategies listed below.
Investment Pool Strategy - The City's Investment Pool is an aggregation of the majority of City
Funds which includes tax receipts, enterprise fund revenues, fine and fee revenues, as well as
some, but not necessarily all, bond proceeds, grants, gifts and endowments. This portfolio is
maintained to meet anticipated daily cash needs for the City's operations, capital projects and
debt service. In order to ensure the ability of the City to meet obligations and to minimize
potential liquidation losses, the dollar -weighted average stated maturity of the Investment Pool
shall not exceed 1.5 years or 550 days.
Bond Funds Strategy - Occasionally, separate non -pooled portfolios are established with the
proceeds from bond sales in order to maximize earnings within the constraints of arbitrage
regulation.
3. Endowment Fund Strategy - Funds received as gifts to the City with instructions that the income
generated by the investment of said funds be used for specific purposes are invested as separate
non -pooled portfolios in order to maximize return.

ANNUAL PROGRAM OF SERVICES
The Annual Program of Services contains specialized and technical terminology that is unique to public finance and
budgeting. To assist the reader of this document in understanding these terms, a budget glossary has been included
in the document.
Accrual Basis. The basis of accounting under which transactions are recognized when they occur, regardless of the
timing of related cash flows.
Accrued Expenses. Expenses incurred but not due until a later date.
Administrative Services. Administrative Services charges are allocated to all Enterprise Fund activities (e.g.,
electric, water/wastewater and solid waste) for indirect management and administrative support given by
general fund departments.
Administrative Transfer. An inter -fund transfer designed to recover General Fund expenditures conducted on
behalf of Proprietary funds.
Ad Valorem Taxes. (Current) All property, real, personal, tangible, intangible, annexations, additions, and
improvements to property located within the taxing unit's jurisdiction, which are subject to taxation on
January 1 of the current fiscal year. Each year, by ordinance, the City Council exempts taxes on automobiles
and other items from the tax levy. Following the final passage of the appropriations ordinance, City Council
sets the tax rate and levy for the fiscal year beginning October 1 and continuing through the following
September 30th.
Ad Valorem Taxes. (Delinquent) All taxes are due on receipt of bill and are delinquent if not paid before February 1
of the fiscal year in which they are imposed, except when the taxing unit postpones the delinquency date due to
late mailing of tax bills or successful rollback elections.
Ad Valorem Taxes. (Penalty and interest) A delinquent tax incurs a penalty of six percent (6%) of the amount of
the tax for the first calendar month it is delinquent, plus one percent (1%) for each additional month or portion
of the month the tax remains unpaid prior to July 1 of the year in which it becomes delinquent. However, the
delinquent tax on July 1 incurs a total penalty of twelve percent (12%) of the amount of the delinquent tax
without regard to the number of months the tax has been delinquent.
Appropriation. A legal authorization granted by a governing body to make expenditures and to incur obligations
for specific purposes.
Appropriable Fund Balance. The cash remaining from the prior year which is available for appropriation and
expenditure in the current year.
Appropriation Ordinance. The official enactment by the City Council to establish legal authority for City officials to
obligate and expend resources.
Assessed Valuation. A value that is established for real or personal property for use as a basis for levying property
taxes. (Note: Property values are established by the Denton Central Appraisal District.)
Balanced Budget. A budget in which estimated revenues equal estimated expenditures.
Bond. A written promise to pay a sum of money on a specific date at a specified interest rate. The interest payments
and the repayment of the principal are detailed in a bond ordinance. The most common types of bonds are
general obligation and revenue bonds. These are most frequently used for construction of large capital
projects, such as buildings, streets and bridges.
Budget. A plan of financial operation embodying an estimate of proposed expenditures for a given period and the
proposed means of financing them. Used without any modifier, the term usually indicates a financial plan for a
single fiscal year. The term "budget" is used in two senses in practice. Sometimes it designates the financial
plan presented to the governing body for adoption and sometimes the financial plan finally approved by that
body. It is usually necessary to specify whether the budget under consideration is preliminary and tentative or
whether it has been approved by the governing bodyy
