The $229 million budget includes funding for the City of Bloomington, Bloomington Transit, Bloomington Housing Authority, and Utilities, and represents a 29% increase over the combined 2022 budget.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2023 combined budget is supported by strong increases in the property tax levy and income tax receipts, as well as significant federal investments like the American Rescue Plan Act, the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act), and the Inflation Reduction Act. The recently passed Economic Development Local Income Tax (ED-LIT) will generate a new $16 million annually for the City general fund. The proposed budget includes 17.5 net new city positions and a combined 13.5 net new positions for Housing, Transit, and Utilities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Budget Highlights<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the following Budget Highlights offer many line items, there is no missing the $2500 proposed allotment for employees to travel out of state for an abortion procedure. This highlight seems to ask more questions than the lone line item answers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Has the City Council seen information relating to exactly where the proposed travel expenditure funds for those seeking abortions is coming from, what will the application process will be like, will funds be available to both men and women City employees, and how will the City will be able to shield applicant details from Freedom of Information requests, considering this is presumable not tied into health care funds?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNot sure if the Administration has thought through those questions,\u201d said City of Bloomington Council Administrator\/Attorney. \u201cI would imagine they have, or hope they have. Those are great questions, and I hope the council members ask them this week as the topic comes up.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lucus followed with stating that he is not sure if this specific line item will be folded into Human Resources, or where this money will come from. He just received the significantly sized budget proposal book late last week, and has not had a chance to \u2018dig in\u2019 to every detail, at this point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>City Council and members of the press received the budget proposal last Friday, although the Council, the Mayor, and the City Comptroller have met earlier in the year to begin preliminary discussions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>A few highlights include:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>5% cost of living adjustment for all non-union employees<\/li><li>$1,000 bonus distributed in four $250 quarterly payments*<\/li><li>A new deferred compensation subsidy available to all employees with a potential 2:1 match of up to $780 per year, or 3:1 match at lower amounts of savings<\/li><li>Health care premium costs ameliorated by the employee COVID-19 insurance discount, resulting in employees paying as low as $0 depending on the plan they choose.

These changes include reforms to sanitation, dropping curbside leaf vacuuming while supporting mulching and bag pick-up, potentially transferring street sweeping to Utilities for stormwater management, dropping coins at parking meters and changing meter protocols.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Administration has produced a fiscally responsible and balanced budget, based on months of input from council members and the public that significantly contributes to our community\u2019s goals. The fiscal year 2023 budget covers the period January 1-December 31, 2023, and will be considered by the City Council with a final vote expected on October 12, 2022.
