The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) presented a Dis-tinguished Budget Presentation Award to the City of Arvada for its Biennial budget for the fiscal years 2011-2012. In order to receive this award, a governmental unit must publish a budget document that meets program criteria as a policy document, as an operations guide, as a financial plan, and as a com-munications device.
We believe our current budget continues to conform to program requirements, and we are submitting it to GFOA to determine its eligibility for another award.
The City of Arvada has received this
Distinguished Budget Presentation Award for
the past 21 years!

Members of City CouncilCity of Arvada8101 Ralston RoadArvada, Colorado 80002
Members of City Council:
Transmitted with this letter is the City of Arvada 2013 – 2014 Operating Budget. This document represents all of the decisions made during the budget adopted on October 22, 2012. As we discussed, there are few changes requested in 2013 and 2014 at this time. This budget is the beginning of a longer perspective on the challenges facing not only our community, but many local governments across the nation. As I have discussed with you, members of our organization and our community on many occasions, I am a strong proponent of long-range financial planning. Developing long range-financial plans encompasses many different elements, including ten-year planning for all major funds to view costs with a longer perspective, a ten-year Capital Improvement Plan that identifies projects, funding sources and any associated operating costs and the allocation of all resources in a manner that reflects the Council’s strategic priorities. These elements should also be consistent with departmental long-term planning efforts, such as the City’s Comprehensive Plan. All of these elements have been initiated and refined over these last 15 months, since my appointment as your city manager, which is a credit to our Finance staff and our operating departments who have embraced the long-term and strategic focus. In the document herein are ten-year plans for each Operating Fund. In the Overview, the assumptions and long-term challenges are identified for each Fund. We believe our assumptions are conservative, reflecting the increased sales tax collected in 2012 while exercising caution as we project future revenues. We are constantly working with various third-party economists to constantly review our analysis.
We have provided a ten-year Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) with operating costs of changes included. We have complete alignment on the priorities – “Taking Lasting Care” of what we currently have, “Building Our Base” and finishing the projects we have started, and “Investing in the Future”, which is beginning a dialogue on the long-term strategic investments the City needs and wants to provide to our future residents.
We are about to begin implementation of performance-based budgeting. In recognition of this very significant business transformation, we have named this new initiative FOCUS in order to emphasize the alignment of our resource allocation with the high priorities identified by the City Council and the community. Implementation of FOCUS will be a significant challenge for our entire organization. Having stated that, I can express with con-fidence this organization is ready to meet this challenge.
This adopted Budget includes several other strategic planning initiatives. One major recommendation in the 2013 Budget is to appropriate $300,000 to update the City’s Comprehensive Plan. We also have various other plans being developed: examination of long-range public safety space needs, historical inventory and some park master plans with our recreational partner, APEX.
These considerations, combined with an uncertain economy, explain why the 2013 – 2014 Budget has so few changes. We need to have a deeper dialogue on the overall economy, the impact of the Affordable Care Act and other financial influences on our ten-year financial plan. We will also have further discussions with you as we initiate FOCUS which will include the identification of your strategic priorities.
Because of these issues, I do expect there will be changes in the 2014 Budget. Departments were very cognizant of the influences guiding this first budget. The budget process this year was much abbreviated with a discus-sion of longer term challenges than major 2013 issues. We know our City is physically growing. This growth will bring additional streets, more housing growth, public safety needs, park maintenance and a host of other needs to maintain the quality of life. We know we will have even more active areas with the advent of the Gold Line opening. As we head into 2014, we will be able to measure and document the current levels of service in many areas, and then confront the question of ways to maintain or improve these levels with different method-ologies. We are going to strive for more efficient and effective ways to provide the services our citizens want while we meet the natural growth of our City.
I want to thank all department directors and staff for this year’s budget discussions. Their acceptance that 2013 would be a year of setting a direction and providing me time to identify many base services helped the organi-zation turn its attention to ten-year planning and development of a comprehensive capital planning document.
Finally, you will note the budget document is quite different. First, the Overview section identifies the signifi-cant changes to the 2013 Budget both in terms of revenue and expenditures, and provides reasoning for con-tinuing to be in a period of nominal change. We have provided a Budget in Brief that provides only the total financial and personnel budgets. The Budget Detail provides the details that have always been provided, and our goal is to provide even more in the future. The ten-year plans are documented in this section. The goal is to provide more measures as we progress through this process. The Capital Improvements Plan document provided more information than in the past in an easy to read format. We are working toward that now with the Budget document.
I want to thank the Finance Staff for their work on this direction. Arlene Martinez receives a special appre-ciative note as this document uses completely new software and design to produce something that is more friendly and readable.
Respectfully submitted,
Mark G. DevenCity Manager

Charter establishes a Council-Manager form of gov-ernment. The City’s governing body consists of an elected Mayor and six -member Council. The Mayor and Council appoint a City Manager. The City of Arvada is a “home rule” City, governed by its City Charter, the Colorado State Constitution, and City ordinances as adopted by the City Council.

2013-2014 BIENNIAL OPERATING AND CAPITAL BUDGET
The City Charter requires the adoption of budgets for the general fund, special revenue funds, debt ser-vice funds, capital projects funds, and proprietary funds. Budgets are not required for fiduciary funds. A fiduciary fund is custodial in nature and is used to account for assets that the government holds for others in an agent or trustee capacity.
City Council annually appropriates all budgeted funds with the exception of the capital projects funds. Project-length budgets are adopted for these funds. The City adopts budgets for all funds using the mod-ified accrual basis of accounting, the same basis used in the entity’s financial statements, consistent with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
The City Manager submits a proposed budget to the City Council for each of two budget years (January 1 to December 31). The budget includes an explana-tory message and is submitted in early August. The proposed budget contains a complete and detailed financial plan for all City funds. The proposed bud-get is open for public inspection and review. By Oc-tober 15th, City Council conducts at least one public hearing on the proposed budget. Not less than sixty days prior to the first day of the next fiscal year, City Council adopts the City budget by resolution and the annual appropriation by ordinance. The City prepares a combination line-item and department budget, but the legal level of control is at the fund level which is the amount approved by ordinance.

INTRODUCTION
All the revenue assumptions and expenditure changes made to the 2013-2014 Operating Budget were made in the context of these same priorities used in the capital planning.

• The Treasury Division helped create the JPMorgan Chase Colorado Purchase Card consortium. The City now uses these cards to pay our bills. This program resulted in a cash rebate of $255,000 in the past two years for paying our bills this way from JPMorgan Chase. The program also eliminated over 75,000 pieces of special paper used to create checks, lowered our mailing costs and eliminated the use of over 75,000 envelopes. The City spent over $14,800,000 using this payment method .
• The Purchasing Division implemented a third-party national electronic bid and solicitation posting system for all City purchasing requests. This system permits the City to post all requirements in one location, thereby en-suringvendorscanfindallCityrequestsinonelocation.Thisensuresbothfulldisclosureandanenvironmentwhereby a large number of vendors can participate.

• The Treasury Division will increase the electronic payment of the City’s bills from its current 68% in volume and 23% in total dollars spent to 70% and 25%, respectively. This will continue to save paper and postage, as well as increase any bank rebate.
• The Risk Management Division will institute quarterly meetings with all departments to review various insur-ance issues. This will include departments in the relationship between usage and their costs with the goal of continuing to decrease various accidents and other issues that create both short and long-term costs.

Capital Improvements
This Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for 2013 and 2014 represents two years of a new comprehensive CIP plan that encompasses a long-term and strategic approach for the City’s capital maintenance and capital investments for the next decade (see the Capital Improvement Plan 2013-2022).
The basis of this CIP is based on three major priorities:
• “Taking Lasting Care” (TLC) of our current physical assets• “Building our Base” – completing investments we have started• Building for the future
In the TLC category, we are recommending over $6 million in capital maintenance in this two-year plan. High-lights include:• Allocation of resources for bridge maintenance, gaps in sidewalk connections, long-life pavement mark-
ings and sign and signal replacements as these assets age.• Reinvestment in parks focused in four major areas: irrigation replacement, playground renovation, trail
renovation and tree replacement.• ProvisionofsignificantcapitalmaintenanceforgolfcoursesandreplacementofequipmentinourHospi-
tality division.• At the Arvada Center, the recommendation includes addressing the safety issues at the front entry plaza
and security issues.
In the area of “Building on the Base” the following are some of the areas of focus:• In transportation areas we will be planning West 72nd and Indiana Street Improvements, as well as Ward
Road Extension. Bike and pedestrian connections will be a long-term project.• TheParksDepartmentfocusesonsettingasideover$350,000annuallytomeetlong-termirrigationand
parking needs. Along with this project, there are resources dedicated to completing parks projects. The major project here is the dedication of an additional $406,000 to the East Central Park. This will be com-bined with the over $800,000 remaining to develop this park into a very active area for the community.
TheProposedCIPdoesrecommendnewinvestmentsforthefuture.Someoftheidentifiedneedsinclude:• Garage parking needs for mass transportation use and to serve Olde Town• New facilities for Police and our street, parks and vehicle maintenance workers• Master planning at Lake Arbor
The total budgeted capital expenditures by major category for 2013 and 2014 are listed below. The remaining pages of the capital improvement section explain the process of how capital improvement projects are budgeted, how the city pays for the projects and a detailed summary of capital expenditures.

What are Capital Improvements?
The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is a ten-year road map for creating, maintaining and paying for Arvada’s pres-ent and future infrastructure needs. The CIP outlines project costs, funding sources and estimated future operating costs associated with each capital improvement. The plan is designed to ensure that capital improvements will be made when and where they are needed and that the City will have the funds to pay for and maintain them.
Capitalimprovementprojectsarenon-routinecapitalexpendituresthatresultintheacquisitionofland,designandconstructions of new assets, or the renovation, rehabilitation or expansion of existing capital assets. Capital projects usuallyhaveanexpectedusefullifeofatleastfiveyears.
Capital improvements make up the bricks and mortar, or infrastructure that all cities must have in place to provide essential services to current residents and support new growth and development. They are also designed to pre-vent the deterioration of the City’s existing infrastructure such as roads, parks, buildings and underground pipes for water and sewer systems, and respond to and anticipate future growth of the City.
Capital Budgeting ProcessThefollowinggraphicoutlinestheCityofArvada’sfirstten-yearCapitalImprovementPlanprocess:
• Council reviews progress of past successes in first quarter of year.• Re-establishes priorities in context of new information, studies, surveys.

Council adoptsboth the two-year
appropriationsand the ten-year
plans
• Analyze prior year expenditures.• Identify all possible sources of resources.• Develop prioritization methodology to meet Strategic Plan.• Analyze and select proposed projects for plan and for the
ten-year planning horizon.
• Departments begin various legal processes to begin the construction processes.• Quarterly reporting on all progress.
• Council reviews Proposed Plan.• Adopts two-year appropriations.• Prioritizes unfunded priorities and projects.• Adds operating costs into the operating budget.

Capital Improvements
The second step was to design allocation methodology, recognizing that the needs always outpace the available resources. Through discussions with Council, surveys, and citizen guidance, the priorities for the 2013 – 2014 al-locationprocesswereidentifiedas:
• Taking Lasting Care• Building our Base• Investing for the Future
Departments then prepared their ten-year proposals. Discussions were then held with the City Manager on the highest priorities in each of these areas. The criteria used to evaluate the projects include:
• Legislative or legal mandate• Health or safety improvement• Numberofcitizensbenefitted• Council strategic goal• Completion of a missing link• Economic impact on the City
This process results in the Proposed Capital Improvement Plan now presented to City Council.
Paying for Capital Improvements
Inmanyrespects,theplanningprocessforselecting,schedulingandfinancingcapitalim-provements parallels the way an individual might plan for buying a house or a car. This process entails assessing many competing needs, determining priorities, evaluating costs andfinancingoptionsandestablishingarealistictimelineforcompletingtheprojects.
The capital improvement program receives funding from a general fund transfer to the capi-talimprovementprogrambasedonthefollowingformula:60%ofthefirstcentofsalestaxmust be transferred for debt service or capital improvements. This is called 98-101 funding. The funding for 2013 and 2014 is calculated as follows:
Funding 2013 201498-101 $7,717,998 $7,950,927Debt service obligations (4,534,440) (4,529,898)Transfer to the capital improvement program $3,183,558 $3,421,029
Other City dollars include the following sources:
• Risk Management money will be used to meet security and safety needs at the Arvada Center; this is ap-proximately$573,000.
• Water, Wastewater and Stormwater rates will pay for the necessary capital projects in those Funds.• GolfandHospitalityrevenuewillmeetalloftheidentifiedneedsintheirrespectiveFunds.• Restricted City monies are from the Police Tax Increment Funds to be used to build two Police community
stations.• ExternalDollarsareidentifiedgrantdollarsormoniesforanotherintergovernmentalagency.
Each year, as capital projects are planned and other are completed, the costs related to maintaining those capital assets are examined. Many times we are able to absorb these costs into our operations. There are also situations whereweneedtoaddadditionalstaffandsuppliestomaintaintheseprojects.Examplesofthismaybetheaddi-

Capital Improvement Program Categories
The City has divided its capital improvement program into four major categories based on the type of improvement that is being constructed.
General GovernmentThis category includes capital facilities associated with the general governmentincludinggeneralofficebuilding,vehicleandparkmain-tenance facilities, the Arvada Center and police stations.

Withineachofthefourmajorcategories,theCitydifferentiatesbetweenrecurringcapitalexpendituresandnon-recurring capital expenditures.
Recurring Capital expenditures receive consistent funding for ongoing capital infrastructure needs throughout the City and ensure that General CIP dollars are available for improvements in particular areas. Their creation grew out of the recognition that, while some recurring needs are relatively small in scope, it was still imperative thatresourcesbereservedtofundnecessarywork.Routinecapitalexpendituresgenerallywillhavenosignificantimpact on the operating budget.
Nonrecurring capital expenditures generally receive one-time funding for the construction of a public facility or acquisitionoflandforafuturepubicfacility.Anyongoingoperatingandmaintenancecostsrelatedtotheseproj-ectshavebeenidentifiedonthenextpageinthecolumnlistedasO&M.Theseestimateshavealsobeenincludedin our operating budget.
