Figure 2: Expenses and Program Revenues
Expenses for governmental activities include General Government, Public Safety, Physical Environment,
Transportation and Culture and Recreation. Public Safety is the largest governmental expense. This includes
law enforcement and fire control. As presented in the graph below, program revenues do not cover the cost of
providing the governmental activity services.
Total City governmental expenses reflect an increase of $1,918,480 or total of 9.34% over the prior year, (see
in Table 4). General Government reflects an increase of $274,511 – 5.5%, Public Safety of $470,341 – 4,8%,
Culture and Recreation Departments reflects an increase of $501,757 – 22.4%, this is due to finalizing of
Ferran Park Phase 4 project completion at a cost of $1,979,166 and increased operating insurance payment.
This increase is offset by expenses decrease in Transportation - $332,864 (-10.7%). The decrease in
Transportation expenses is due to a reduction in new street projects during fiscal year 2020. In addition, two
Transportation projects have been completed during the year at a cost of $599,133.
