QUARTERLY FINANCIAL UPDATE
DEVELOPMENT SERVICES CENTER
Jim McIntosh, Chief Financial Officer, or his designee, will provide an update of
the Development Services Center's quarterly financials and respond to
questions from the Committee Members.
Jim McIntosh, Chief Financial Officer, referred to the supporting material and
provided an overview of the Development Services Center's quarterly financial
statements for the period ending on September 30, 2021.
Responding to Mr. Majid’s inquiry regarding the DSC’s overall performance
compared to the City, Mr. McIntosh stated the City’s two large revenues are
consolidated and property taxes. He said property tax has done well for the City
but not the Charges for Services revenue. He said consolidated tax has done
well because the data is being compared to a pervious year that had lockdowns
and large business restrictions. He said there was a rebound at the end of last
fiscal year that has continued to this fiscal year and said although there are
some revenues that are not doing as well as the City, the DSC is performing
strongly.
A brief discussion ensued regarding the hiring of additional employees in
preparation for the large submittals that are continuing to increase.
