LT Leasco, LLC Annexation Area 6 2002 Budget Report for the Department: Expenditures: State Revenue: Balance (a): Miles of Roadway in City (b): Cost per Mile: New Mileage within Area: Total estimated Maintenance cost/year: $7,427,294 $5,341,296 $2,086,165 @482 @$4,328 ((a) divided by (b)) @ 0.02miles (108 feet) @$87.00 ($4,328 * 0.02) When fully developed, this annexation area is not expected to require major capital outlays for public works vehicles or equipment. Cost of road maintenance (such as pavement repair and/or replacement) will not be fully required during the early years of development, in anticipation that major repairs will not be needed. B. Police Department The noted area would be expected to be added to the already existing BEAT 15. Police patrols, traffic enforcement, and emergency responses will be part of the services the City will offer to this area. At this time it is not expected that this annexation would cause calls for service to increase significantly, and it is not anticipated that it will be necessary to increase police patrols beyond the already existing beat patrol at this time. The area under consideration is not expected to cause any unusual problems. Cost for servicing this area would be expected to be absorbed by the existing budget of the Police Department, as the addition of this area would not be significant to the point of having to increase any budgetary items. Police services and response time in this area can be expected to be comparable and consistent with that as in all other areas of the City. Police coverage to this area could begin immediately upon annexation and coordination of the conversion of the 911 emergency phone system for that area. Conversion of the 911 emergency phone system may take up to one month from the effective date of the Annexation. It is anticipated that the services of this Department will be minimally required to service the Annexation Area in the first five years of the annexation. Therefore, the service cost of the Department has been reduced by one -third to reflect a more realistic actual cost to service the Annexation Area in the first five years.
