F GTEC Monthly Report
GTEC MONTHLY REPORT AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2020
Operating revenue is comprised of sales tax and
allocated interest. Sales tax revenue is budgeted at $7.9
million and is two months in arrears. Sales tax collections
for the first eleven months outpaced budget due to a
combination of new businesses coming online, and the
continued growth of the City’s core sector like retail.
COVID has slowed revenues from March through
present. Year to date, sales tax revenue for the city is up
12.4% when compared to the same period last year.
Interest totals $272,223 through the period.
Operating expense totals $410,466 for administrative
charges in the General Fund and Joint Services Fund.
Total expenses year to date represents slightly above
100% of the operating expense budget.
Non-operating revenue projected at $4.7 million, is
comprised of bond proceeds for various debt funded
projects.
Non-operating expense currently totals 3.9 million through September 30th. This segment of expenses includes
transportation as well as the debt service payment of $528,060 for previously issued debt. The City pays debt service
twice a year. Ending fund balance is projected to be 13.5 million at the end of FY2020. This is above the contingency
requirements outlined in the City Fiscal and Budgetary Policy for the GTEC Fund.
