City Council Agenda Statement
Meeting Date: September 22, 2025
To: City Council
Through: Kat Sorensen, City Manager
From: Sully Jusino, Finance Director
Subject: Resolution 2025-094: Authorizing the City Manager to Accept and
Appropriate Community Assistance Program Funds in the Amount of
$192,239.30 for the Purpose of Capital Projects Related to Fire, Public
Safety, and Road Maintenance
Background and justification:
The Community Assistance Program, formerly known as Community Revenue Sharing, provides
funding to municipalities that provide services such as police and fire protection, water and sewer,
and public road maintenance.
The State Revenue sharing funds have become uncertain over time and to avoid factoring one —
time uncertain revenues into the City's operating budget, the City has operated under a policy of
utilizing one-time revenues to fund capital needs.
The program is funded by state budget appropriations. Because allocation of program funds was
not anticipated, the City of Seward FY23/24, 25/26 operating budget did not contain budgeted
revenue for the funds.
In FY24, the city received the amount of $107,070.85, and it was not transferred to the Capital
Acquisition Fund in accordance with the city's budget policy.
For FY26 the City of Seward has received notification of the CAP for payment in the amount of
$85,168.45.
Community Assistance Program Funds in the amount of $192,239.30 will be appropriated to the
General Fund and will be transferred to the Capital Acquisition Fund in accordance with the City's
budget policy.
