Memorandum
To: Members of Council
From: Jason Stewart, CPA,Finance Director
Date: December 8, 2021
Subject: Clean-up Appropriation
Attached you will find the 2021 clean-up appropriation ordinance for your consideration. There
are a number of items for your consideration. I have broken them down by fund below:
Sections #1-2: General Fund and SCM«&R Fund
Item 1.) As previously reported, a transfer of Regular Wages to Overtime Wages
($50,000) in the Police Department as additional overtime costs were incurred to maintain
staffing as the result of a number of vacancies, participation in task forces and training
opportunities in the department.
Item 2.) As previously reported, a transfer of Regular Wages to Overtime Wages
($20,000) in the Fire Department as additional overtime costs were incurred to attempt to
maintain staffing at six men per shift.
Item 3.) Transfer of appropriation trom Operating Supplies to Regular Wages ($500) to
account for an error in the budget worksheet which used an incorrect sick leave percentage in
calculating the wages ofthe department.
Item 4.) As previously reported, a transfer of Regular Wages ($40,000) to Overtime
Wages ($30,000) in the Service Department, Facility Maintenance ($5,000), and Streets
Department ($5,000) as additional overtime costs were incurred due to an increased need for
snow plowing, landscaping maintenance, and manning at community events.
Item 5.) There is an additional appropriation amount of $50,000 to cover the costs of the
previously approved increase in rates for the Allied Waste contract.
Item 6.) Each year, we anticipate a certain number of retirements throughout the year,
This year we will need an additional appropriation of $38,000 for unanticipated
retirements/resignations during the year.
Item 7.) There is an additional appropriation of $90,000 for RITA fees. Income tax
collections for 2021 are exceeding original expectations. This additional fee is to account for the
3% retainer withheld by the Regional Income Tax Agency.
Item 8.) We are expected to receive over $500,000 in funding from Cuyahoga County for
a number of projects that were undertaken in 2021, including the resurfacing of Glenridge,
Webster Road, and storm sewer work on Middlebrook. Those funds are likely to not be received
