HomeMy WebLinkAbout12/4/2002 - STAFF REPORTS (15) DATE: December 4, 2002 TO: City Council FROM: Executive Director—Airports AIRPORT MIDYEAR BUDGET ADJUSTMENTS RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that City Council approve a midyear budget adjustment for the Airport Fund. SUMMARY: This action will update the original budget estimates so that an accurate calculation of the Airport's revenue to expenditure ratio can be completed for annual revenue bond reporting. BACKGROUND: The Airport's 1992 Revenue Bond Issue has a rate coverage covenant which requires the Airport to have annual revenue that meets or exceeds 125% of operation and maintenance costs. Post 9111, the Airport reported on several occasions that it was concerned with this covenant as our revenues looked like they would be down and the covenant would require us to raise rates to the airlines, something we really did not want to do. The Airport's recovery plan, as previously reviewed with the Commission and City Council, called for a refinancing of the 1992 Revenue Bond Issue to remove the rate covenant. In the meantime,there is an annual reporting which must be completed by the City's financial consultant. To accurately calculate and report the coverage ratio, this requested action by City Council, is to amend the budget so as to provide the most recent estimates of revenue to the financial consultant. Attached is a Budget Resolution and with its adoption,the financial consultant reports that the rate covenant ratio will be 126%. tk::= ALLEN F. SMOOT, AAE THOMAS M.
