CITY OF ALLEN
October 1, 2013
Mayor Stephen Terrell
Members of the City Council
City of Allen
Allen, Texas
Mayor Stephen Terrell and Members of the City Council:
I am pleased to present the 2013-2014 City of Allen Annual Budget for Municipal Services.
This budget represents the expected revenues and planned expenditures for the City's fiscal
year from October 1, 2013, to September 30, 2014. It has been prepared in conformance with
the requirements of Article IV of the City Charter, City financial policies, and State law. The
public hearings on the proposed 2013-2014 budget and tax rate were held on August 13, 2013,
and August 27, 2013. The budget and tax rate were adopted on September 10, 2013.
The recommended budget for fiscal year 2014 reflects an effort to balance the expectations of
citizens with available resources and allows for very modest growth in an attempt to restore
some of the areas reduced in prior budget years. With this budget, staff is recommending
allocating resources according to the priorities of our citizens and City Council, while
maintaining the conservative fiscal approach that has allowed Allen to attain and maintain an
AAA bond rating. This budget maintains or enhances the programs and services identified by
our citizens as priorities while providing for a decrease to the city's tax rate.
One of the top priorities in this year's budget is an attempt to strategically address the structure
of the employee compensation plan. The City contracted with a firm for a comprehensive
employee compensation study to ensure the City of Allen remains competitive in regards to
the market place. An outside evaluation of compensation structure has not been pursued in
over ten years. Funds have been included in the budget to implement the study's findings.
Preparing the annual budget enables the City Council to steer a worse toward a strategic
vision that aligns municipal resources with community needs. By focusing on the services we
currently offer and the staff we currently employ, the City will be able to continue to
effectively implement this strategic vision. Budgeting for modest growth will allow us to
maintain the City's fiscal strength and enable City Staff to continue providing high quality
City services.
The 2014 fiscal year total combined budget revenue plus beginning fund balance equals
$232,517,486 and total budgetary expenditures are estimated at $174,318,719. Balancing the
needs of the community with available financial resources presents an annual challenge in the
development of the budget. The 2013-2014 budget reflects the efforts of the City Council and
City Staff to weigh the divergent demands of the citizenry, pursuing those initiatives that
support the strategic goals for the City of Allen, thereby ensuring that the highest priorities of
the community as a whole are accomplished.

Strategic Planning
On January 26, 2013, the City Council reaffirmed the eight goals that serve as the foundation
of the City's Strategic Plan. The strategic plan is a working document that sets the
community's highest priorities and provides guidance to City Staff when making budgetary
determinations. The strategic plan allows City staff to properly align the City's valuable
resources with the community's priorities, a vital step in accomplishing the City's goals. The
City's vision, as articulated by the goals developed within the Strategic Plan, is listed below.
Goal 1
Strategic Goals for the City of Allen, Fiscal Year 2014
Enhance community livability and safety.
Goal 2
Cultivate regional alliances and partnerships with agencies and governmental
units that affect Allen.
Goal
Improve regional mobility through transportation initiatives.
Goal
Signify, enhance and communicate Allen's identity to the region and the nation.
Goal 5
Systematically invest in public infrastructure.
Goal 6
Maintain operational excellence in City government services.
Goal 7
Provide economic investment that increases employment opportunity, the tax
base, and provides desired goods and services for residents and contributes to
the community character and identity.
Goal 9
Proactively work to protect, conserve and manage water resources.
Property Values
According to the Central Appraisal District, the final total assessed property value for 2013-
2014 equals $8.37 billion, which equates to an overall increase of approximately $372 million
(4.65%) from the previous year. Assessed property values have increased 14.3% over the past
five years, reflecting the slower growth trend that has emerged during that time. By
comparison, assessed values grew by 46.6% over the previous five year period, from fiscal
years 2005 to 2009, as illustrated in the graph below.

City of Allen 2 FY2014 Budget
Tax Rate
The adopted budget reduces the City's tax rate from $0.552 to $0.550, and continues the City's
commitment to providing high quality services. The City continues to prepare for its future
obligations and adheres to the City's long-term financial plan. Of the total tax rate, $0.409121
is dedicated to operations and maintenance (O&M) in the General Fund, and $0.140879 is
dedicated to general obligation debt service. The portion of the tax rate dedicated to debt
service is 25.61% of the overall tax rate. This rate is consistent with the City's current policy
to maintain the debt service portion below 35%.

Debt Service
A portion of the City's property tax rate is assigned to the debt service fund to pay for the
General Obligation (G.O.) Bonds and Certificates of Obligation that have been issued for the
acquisition of public land or construction of public infrastructure and facilities. In May 2013,
the ratings on the City's General Obligation debt were reaffirmed at AAA by Standard and
Poor's, and were reaffirmed at Aal by Moody's. At the beginning of Fiscal Year 2014, the
total outstanding debt balance will be $97.535 million, and the debt service payments on this
outstanding balance will be $12.23 million for the year.
City of Allen 3 FY2014 Budget
Programs and Staffing Levels
The City currently supports a staff of 746.29 full-time equivalent employees allocated among
the operating departments. This budget recommends an increase of 12.45 full-time equivalent
(FTE) positions setting the employment level for fiscal year 2014 at 758.74. This includes
8.05 FTE in the General Fund, LO FTE in the Water and Sewer Fund, 1.0 FTE in the Drainage
Fund, 0.5 FTE in the Solid Waste Fund, LO FTE in the Hotel Occupancy Fund, 1.0 FTE in the
Risk Management Fund, and the reduction of 0.1 FTE in the Golf Course Fond. The staffing
level has been increased to address the goals established in the Strategic Plan and maintain the
current levels of service.
The graph below reflects the number of employees per thousand citizens for the past five
years.

Proposed
General Fund
The General Fund accounts for all expenditures of traditional government services. This fund
finances operations such as Public Safety, Library, Administration, Community Services,
Parks and Recreation, Engineering, Municipal Court, and Community Development. General
Fund revenue is generated from ad valorem property taxes, a one -cent portion of the sales tax,
and a variety of fees for services.
General Fund revenues and budget transfers total $80,464,885 for the fiscal year 2013-2014
budget, an increase of 4.6% from the amended 2012-2013 budget. The sales tax remains at the
State maximum rate of 8.25% with 1% contributed to the City of Allen's General Fund. The
sales tax is projected to generate revenue of approximately $16.8 million, a 4.7% increase
from the amended 2012-2013 budget. This is a result of continued commercial retail
development and population growth in Allen.
General Fund operating expenditures and budget transfers total $80,312,226 reflecting a 3.6%
increase from the amended 2012-2013 budget. The available ending fund balance for the
General Fund, including a restricted balance of $713,113, is projected to be $16,244,707,
leaving 73.8 days of operational expenditures in reserve, within the City policy of 60 to 90
days.
City of Allen 4 FY2014 Budget
In order to keep up with existing demands, in Fiscal Year 2014 the City will add several new
General Fund positions, as follows:
• One new Code Enforcement Officer will be added in Community Development to
assist with increasing workload. The last new Code Enforcement position was added in
2007.
• One new Fire Prevention Specialist will be added in April 2014, which will impact half
of Fiscal Year 2014. Workload continues to increase in this area and a legislative
decision requiring specialized training in Fire Prevention inhibits the ability to use
firefighters for completing routine inspections.
• One IT Applications Specialist will be added primarily to assist with the newly
implemented Public Safety software applications.
• 4.55 new personnel will be added in Parks and Recreation including a Park Planner
funded through a transfer from the Allen Community Development Corporation
(CDC), a new Irrigation Technician, a Sports Field Supervisor and an Accounts
Payable Technician at Allen Event Center. The Lead Box Office Attendant at Allen
Event Center will be increased from .75 to full-time and the Sous Chef will be
increased from .90 to full-time. Finally, two .25 part-time Recreation Specialist I's at
Joe Farmer Recreation Center will be increased to .35 each.
• One .75 Quartermaster position in the Police Department is increasing to full-time
while one .75 Police Services Technician will be divided into two separate .50
positions.
The City of Allen utilizes a conservative strategy when projecting revenues and expenditures.
Revenue and expenditure patterns are closely monitored so that adjustments to spending
patterns can be implemented, as needed. The City considers many influences as presented
throughout this document along with trend analysis to develop and manage the budget as the
year progresses.
Water and Sewer Fund
The Water and Sewer Food is expected to begin fiscal year 2014 with a $10.5 million working
capital balance. The total fund revenues are expected to be approximately $35,155,247,
allowing for budgeted expenses of $34,129,623. Expenses include a $1.87 million transfer to
capital projects for systematic water and sewer infrastructure replacement projects and future
CIP funding. The budget anticipates a water and sewer rate increase in February 2014 in
accordance with the latest water and sewer rate study, which was updated in December of
2012. The $11.57 million in working capital ending balance results in 123.7 days of operating
expenditures in reserve, which exceeds the City policy of 90 to 120 days. This healthy balance
is necessary to fund future capital projects and ongoing maintenance planned to ensure that the
water and sewer infrastructure will meet the needs of the City at build out. Due to careful
implementation of the City's water and sewer rate plan, coupled with careful attention to cost
containment, the City has been able to maintain water and sewer rates that are among the
lowest in the region.
City of Allen 5 FY2014 Budget
In order to continue to maintain water and sewer infrastructure, one new Foreman will be
added to the Water and Sewer Fund with responsibility for overseeing Distribution and Special
Operations.
Solid Waste Fund
The Solid Waste Fund represents the financial activity related to solid waste collection and
disposal, including recycling, composting services, and management of household hazardous
waste. The anticipated revenues in fiscal year 2014 are $6,272,714 with budgeted expenses
totaling $6,598,257. The total ending fund balance for the Solid Waste Fund is projected to be
$2,672,850. Consistent with prior Council discussion, in fiscal year 2014 the Solid Waste
Fund Balance will continue to absorb the North Texas Municipal Water District disposal cost
increases, as opposed to passing these increases on to residents and businesses.
During fiscal year 2013, the City successfully negotiated an extension to the current contract
with Community Waste Disposal (CWD), the City's solid waste provider. As part of the
contract extension, CWD agreed to several concessions that will have a positive impact on the
fiscal year 2014 Solid Waste Fund budget. Among these concessions are a suspension of any
residential CPI increases through May 31, 2015 and a complete prohibition of CPI adjustments
to commercial accounts through the duration of the contract. In addition, CWD has agreed to
adjust the Variable Fuel Adjustment Fee (VFAF) "start point" on commercial accounts to a
point that eliminates any VFAF charges until diesel fuel costs reach $4.05 per gallon. This
VFAF "start point" will then increase by $0.10 per year for the duration of the contract.
The Solid Waste Fund will continue its efforts in Fiscal Year 2014 to keep Allen beautiful
through its solid waste, recycling, yard waste, and household hazardous waste programs, and
by assisting the Keep Allen Beautiful (KAB) Board in the execution of key events including:
Allen Recycles Day, Creat American Cleanup, Arbor Day/frees for Allen Program, Earthfest,
conducting a zero -waste Allen USA event, and the annual AISD Educator's Expo.
The Solid Waste Fund will also continue to partner with the Parks and Recreation Department
by providing $275,000 towards City-wide litter pick up efforts. The Solid Waste Fund will
also continue funding of $300,000 in fiscal year 2014 for alley repairs.
A new .50 part-time Household Hazardous Waste Maintenance Worker will be added to the
Solid Waste Fund to assist with the increasing workload in the HHW program, including
staffing needs at the City's Chemical Reuse Center. Revenue generated from the $0.57 fee
charged to residential customers is sufficient to fund this addition.
Drainaee Fund
The Drainage Fund is supported by drainage fees on utility bills and development inspection
fees. The Fund performs drainage system maintenance, funds the City's contracts for street
sweeping and greenbelt mowing along drainage ways, and mosquito abatement activities. The
Fund also supports the City's Texas Pollution Discharge Elimination System (TPDES) permit
activities, and provides funds to accomplish drainage system related capital
improvements. The anticipated revenues in fiscal year 2014 are $1,374,500 with budgeted
City of Allen 6 FY2014 Budget
expenses totaling $1,514,363. The total ending fund balance for the Drainage Fund is
projected to be $644,612.
One new Maintenance Worker will be added to the Drainage Fund to assist in inspecting
drainage areas to ensure compliance with increasing demands placed on the City through
TPDES.
Golf Course Fund
The renovation of the 18 hole Traditions Course at The Courses at Watters Creek was
completed and opened to public on January 12, 2013. The Futures Course, a new six hole
short course, and the nine hole Players Course, will open near the end of Fiscal Year 2013.
Redesigned to be more accessible to all players, the entire Courses at Watters Creek venue will
be completed and fully operational for the entirety of Fiscal Year 2014. Golf course
operational expenses are anticipated to be $2,630,293, which will be covered by operational
revenues estimated at $2,603,295, and transfers in from the General Fund of $27,000. The only
personnel change in the Golf Fund for FY 2014 is the reduction of one .60 Golf Attendant to
.50.
Hotel Occupancy Tax Food
The Hotel Occupancy Tax Fund collects funds from a 7% tax on hotel rooms rented in the City
of Allen. These funds we used to support various projects that enhance and promote tourism,
the arts and the convention/hotel industry in the City of Allen.
Fund revenues for Fiscal Year 2014 are expected to total $1,261,416 with budgeted expenses
of $1,252,108. Since the Hotel Occupancy Tax Fund directly benefits from the recruitment of
events and programs held at the Allen Event Center, there will be a $175,000 contribution to
the Event Comer's operating budget. This will offset marketing and advertising expenses for
the sporting events and art performances held at the Event Center that increase tourism and
economic activity at local hotels.
The Fund budget also includes the costs of operating the City's Convention and Visitors
Bureau (CVB). CVB operational and personnel costs are budgeted to be $799,538. This
includes funding for the continuation of the new City brand rollout, as well as amounts
allocated for the Lone Star Conference basketball tournament, the NCAA Collegiate Wrestling
Tournament, the Texas Stampede, and others as they arise. One new CVB Sales position will
be added to the CVB staff to recruit targeted markets to hotels and meeting facilities within the
City of Allen. The $50,000 that has been budgeted in the past for special projects submitted for
consideration from the Hotel Association is being reallocated to help fund the addition of this
CVB Sales position.
Risk Management Fund
The Risk Management Fund is the combination of all risk and liability obligations the City
incurs. Included in the fund are health and dental costs, for which the City is self-insured. The
fund also includes premiums for workers' compensation as well as property and liability
insurance expenses. The City currently maintains a prudent fund balance.
City of Alien 7 FY2014 Budget
Health care premium costs are continuing to rise due largely to the combination of new
federally mandated health care requirements, a maturing workforce, and inflationary pressures
related to health care costs. Due to the increasing costs of health care, for fiscal year 2014
employees will be required to contribute an additional 10% towards their health insurance
premiums while the City contributes an additional 10% as well. Both the City and the
employees will also contribute an additional 10% towards dental premiums. These increases
will allow the City to continue to contribute 79% of the total cost of employee health insurance
premiums with the employees making up the remaining 21%. The City will continue to
pursue ways to lower healthcare costs. The fund balance continues to provide the financial
security needed in the event that catastrophic claims should occur.
Workers' compensation insurance claims and premiums will remain relatively flat compared
to the prior year. The budgeted amount for this coverage is $399,680.
Property and liability insurance rates remain relatively flat compared to fiscal year 2013, and
with no significant additions of newly insured property, costs are projected to remain stable in
fiscal year 2014. The total anticipated amount budgeted for fiscal year 2014 is $590,846.
One new FTE is budgeted for a Benefits Specialist position in Human Resources. This
position will be responsible for the ongoing needs associated with an increasing workforce and
the increasing complexity of health care.
Capital Improvement Program (Cl
In May 2007, Allen citizens authorized the issuance of $77.895 million in General Obligation
Bonds to fund capital improvement projects over the next several years. These projects
represent a significant investment in the City's infrastructure, public facilities and recreational
assets. The approved Capital Improvement Program (CIP) includes projects that address a
wide range of capital needs ultimately funded from several sources. FY 2014, the eighth year
of the program, totals $10.550 million and includes: upgrading existing facilities, repairs to
streets and alleys, continuation of the Ridgeview Drive extension, park land acquisition,
neighborhood park development, implementation of the public art master plan, street and
drainage improvements, west -side athletic complex, and an environmental discovery center.
The plan recognizes the benefits such projects will bring to the City, as well as the fiscal
requirements and obligations each of these projects will entail. Total estimated CIP
expenditures for fiscal year 2014 are $27.9 million, which includes projects funded by all other
sources.
Conclusion
This completes the highlights of the 2014 fiscal year budget. It is appropriate to once again
thank the department directors who have put much time and expertise into the development of
the budget. The development of this budget would not have been possible without the hard
work of our Finance Department, in particular, Kevin Hammeke, Joanne Stoehr, and Chris
Landrum. In addition, I would like to give a special thanks to all City employees who continue
City of Allen 8 FY2014 Budget
to work so hard to provide quality services to our citizens and who are committed to the
success of the City of Allen.

CITY OF ALLEN
ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
The City of Allen has experienced moderate growth in recent years as the economy continues to
recover. Growth is expected to continue at the same pace for the foreseeable future. Below is a
discussion of influencing factors and the impact of economic trends on the current budget, and other
issues that could affect future budgets.
Property and Sales Tax
The rate of growth in property and sales taxes has slowed over the last several years. The current
year's increase of 4.65% in property tax valuation is primarily due to real property reappraisals and new
property additions. Assessed valuation increases going forward are expected to be less than 5%.
Projected sales tax revenue increases include data center technology purchases and in-line retail finish
outs, as the city's sizable retail developments are near full occupancy. The overall increase in sales tax
revenues for FY2014 is estimated at 4.7% over FY2013 revised revenues.
Capital Projects and Debt
The issue facing the City of Allen in current and future budgets is that, while revenue growth is
moderate, capital projects will be completed which will increase the funding needs for debt payments
and for operating costs. A bond issuance of $5.065 million took place in May of 2013 that will impact
the debt payments in FY2014 by approximately $351 thousand. The capital projects funded by the debt
issuance also increase the FY2014 budget with associated operations and maintenance costs. The city
uses deferment as a management tool to control the increase in debt and operating costs. Additionally,
when prudent, the city refinances previously issued debt in order to take advantage of lower interest
rates.
Other Operating Needs
An independent analysis of the city's compensation plan structure as compared to the market place has
not been pursued for over ten years. In an effort to remain competitive, retain talented employees, and
ensure that the city remains the "employer of choice", the city pursued the aforementioned study.
FY2014 includes funds dedicated to strategically implement recommendations brought forth during the
study.
Legislative Issues
In recent years, bills have been presented in the State Legislature that would limit the property tax
revenues taxing entities can collect. We anticipate that this trend will continue in the 2015 legislative
session. Some of these bills could have a devastating impact on cities' revenues. The city monitors
these bills and their progress through each bi-annual legislative session, and responds by working with
other local governments to provide supporting data for testimony, or by participating in opportunities to
talk directly with legislators. The city also stays updated on legislation at the Federal level, such as that
which relates to health care reform, and is planning for the effect of those changes on upcoming
budgets.
Balanced Budget
In response to the challenges mentioned above, the city continues to make adjustments in order to
balance the budget while still providing exceptional service. In FY2014, the city continues to restore
some of the operational and professional service accounts that were reduced in prior years. In addition,
the city deferred new programs and services until such time as they become economically viable.
By using conservative budget management strategies, the City of Allen has been able to navigate
challenging economic times with minimal impact to staff, programs, and service levels. The city
continually monitors economic conditions, and is prepared to make additional adjustments as
circumstances change.

CITY OF ALLEN
FUND STRUCTURE
2013-2014 FISCAL YEAR
The funds that make up the operating budget are divided into three categories: Governmental
Funds, Proprietary Funds, and Component Units.
Governmental Fund Types
Governmental funds are those generally used to account for tax -supported governmental
activities. The city accounts and budgets for Governmental Funds using the modified accrual
basis of accounting. This means that revenue is recognized in the accounting period in which
it becomes available and measurable, while expenditures are recognized in the accounting
period in which they are incurred.
General Fund
The General Fund accounts for all financial resources except those required to be accounted
for in other funds, and include basic governmental services such as Police, Fire and Parks
functions, among others. All general tax revenues and other receipts not allocated to other
funds by law or contractual agreement are accounted for in this fund.
Debt Service Fund
The Debt Service Fund accounts for the accumulation of resources for, and the payment of,
general long-term debt principal, interest and related costs.
Tax Increment Financing Fund
The Tax Increment Financing Fund accounts for property tax and sales tax revenues and
eligible infrastructure expenditures associated with the city's Tax Increment Financing (TIF)
zones and related TIF agreements.
Special Revenue Funds
The Special Revenue Funds account for the proceeds of certain revenue sources, the
expenditure of which are legally restricted for specified purposes.
Asset Forfeiture Fund
The Asset Forfeiture Fund is used to account for seized funds or property awarded to
the city by court order and expended solely for law enforcement purposes.
Hotel Occupancy Tax Fund
The Hotel Occupancy Tax Fund is used to account for funds received from hotel
occupancy tax and expended as allowed by state law.
Grant Fund
The Grant Fund is used to account for monies received from other governmental
agencies that have restricted legal requirements and multi-year budgets. The city's
matching portion is transferred in from the applicable operating fund.

CITY OF ALLEN
FUND STRUCTURE
2013.2014 FISCAL YEAR
Proprietary Fund Types
Proprietary funds use the flow of economic resources measurement focus and the accrual
basis of accounting. Under this method, revenues are recorded when earned and expenses
are recorded at the time the liability is incurred. There are two types of proprietary funds
included in the budget: Enterprise Funds and Internal Service Funds.
Enterodse Funds
The Enterprise Funds are used to account for operations that are financed and operated in a
manner similar to a private business enterprise. The intent of the governing body is that the
cost (expenses, including depreciation) of providing goods or services to the general public be
financed or recovered primarily through user charges.
Water and Sewer Fund
The Water and Sewer Fund is used to account for the provision of water and sewer
services to the residents of the city. Activities include administration, operation and
maintenance of the water and sewer system and billing and collection activities.
Acquisition and construction of major water and sewer capital facilities and repayment
of indebtedness from related bond issues and lease purchases are also accounted for
in this proprietary fund. All costs are financed through charges made to utility
customers. Rates are reviewed and adjusted when necessary to ensure the solvency of
the fund.
Solid Waste Fund
The Solid Waste Fund is used to account for revenues and expenses associated with
the privately contracted trash collection service and the solid waste disposal contract
with the North Texas Municipal Water District.
Drainage Fund
The Drainage Fund is used to account for the provision of developing and maintaining
proper drainage services to the residents of the city.
Goff Course Fund
The Golf Course Fund was established to support the daily operations of The Courses
at Watters Creek. Purchased in October 2004, the golf course provides additional
recreational opportunities for the citizens of Allen and the surrounding region.
Internal Service Funds
The Internal Service Funds are used to account for financing of goods or services provided by
one department or agency to other departments or agencies of the city, or to other
governmental units, on a cost -reimbursement basis.

CITY OF ALLEN
FUND STRUCTURE
2013.2014 FISCAL YEAR
Replacement Fund
The Replacement Fund accounts for the cost associated with the acquisition of capital
assets such as vehicles and machinery and equipment through the rental of such items
to other departments.
Risk Management Fund
The Risk Management fund accounts for the health insurance portion of employee and
retiree benefits, for which the city is self-insured. The fund also includes property and
liability insurance and worker's compensation insurance, as well as the administrative
costs of operating the fund. The total costs of this fund are charged proportionally to
each of the other operating funds.
Component Units
Component units are legally separate entities for which the city is financially accountable. The
city is considered financially accountable for its component units because the City Council
appoints the board members, approves the budgets, authorizes debt issuances, and has
access to the organizations' resources.
Allen Economic Development Corporation (AEDC)
The AEDC is responsible for aiding, promoting and furthering economic development
within the city.
Community Development Corporation (CDC)
The CDC is responsible for supporting improvements in community parks and
recreation, streets and sidewalks, public safety and the community library.

Other Funds
In addition to the funds presented in this document, the following funds, although not part of
the annual operating budget, are audited each year and are included in the city's
Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR). All are classified as Governmental fund
types.
Capital Projects Funds
The Capital Projects Funds account for all resources used for the acquisition and/or
construction of major capital facilities by the city, except those financed by proprietary funds
and trust funds. The budget for these funds is presented by project type as a five-year plan in
the city's Capital Improvement Program document. This document is approved, and the
updated plan is adopted, each year at the same time the annual operating budget is adopted.
These funds include: General Capital Projects, General Obligation Bond fund, and Drainage
Improvements. More detailed explanations of the purpose of each fund may be found in the
Comprehensive Annual Financial Report.
Other Special Revenue Funds
Although this fund is not included in the annual adopted operating budget, the proceeds from
this revenue source are legally restricted to expenditures for specific purposes. The purpose
of this fund is as follows:
Park Dedication Fund — to account for funds received and expended for the acquisition
of additional park land and for the development of neighborhood parks.

CITY OF ALLEN
BUDGET PROCESS
2013.2014 FISCAL YEAR
Budget Process
The budget process is a yearly activity as set forth in the City Charter, Article IV, Section 4.01
to 4.10. The City Council adopts an annual budget prepared by City Management. It is part of
the strategic planning process the City of Allen uses to proactively forecast programs needed
in a growing community. The budget process starts each year in December with the city staff
analyzing new projects and goals that the City Council has identified as areas of interest and
would like to see developed into the strategic plan. The Finance department updates
projections of major revenue sources to determine whether total expenditures will need to be
adjusted accordingly at midyear. Starting in January, departments begin preparing their
personnel requests for the coming year; these are due to Human Resources in March, to allow
time for evaluation and pricing prior to budget input. In late February, a team made up of
representatives from Planning, Engineering, Community Services, Building and Code, and
Finance meets to develop the basic assumptions that will be used during the budget process.
Starting in January and continuing through March departments prepare their requests for items
to be replaced from the Replacement fund. Starting in late March and continuing into early
April, a team of representatives from Finance and the departments that have fleet operations
evaluates these requests and prepares a recommendation for the City Manager.
At the budget kick-off meeting in March, the City Manager gives departments the guidelines to
be used in preparing budget requests. The budget is broken down into three parts: a year-end
estimate, a base budget for the upcoming year and new programs for the new fiscal year.
The year-end estimate is a projection of revenues and expenditures for the remainder of the
current fiscal year. All accounts are evaluated to determine whether they need to be adjusted
from current budgets. Accounts that are under or over budget are revised to meet year-end
needs. New projects are not added to the year-end estimate. Only the cost for maintaining
the current base operation is revised as needed.
The base budget estimate for the upcoming fiscal year is the proposed cost for maintaining the
current base operation, and assumes no additions of personnel or equipment. Activities that
require addifional resources to maintain the current service level, due to factors such as growth
or new facilities, are considered additions to the base budget, and are included in the new
programs part of the budget. Increases to the operating portion of the base estimate are
limited by a set percentage that is tied to an economic indicator to reflect inflation. All capital
and one time purchases from the previous fiscal year are not included in the base budget.
The third part of the budget is new programs. This is defined as any change in program
emphasis, expenditure of funds, or allocation of personnel or equipment that will result in a
change in the level of service currently being delivered. All requests for new personnel, fleet,
or equipment that represent a net addition to the operation are included in new costs. For
each new program, the department provides a description, itemization, and justification for all
costs included in the new program. These are submitted by the departments in a list prioritized
according to need.
When all three parts of the budget have been prepared by the departments, Finance reviews
them to ensure they are within the budget guidelines. Once all departmental budgets are
City of Allen Is FY2014 Budget
CITY OF ALLEN
BUDGET PROCESS
2013-2014 FISCAL YEAR
completed, each Director meets with the City Manager to discuss their requests for the
upcoming year, as well as any adjustments needed in the current year. The City Manager
makes any necessary changes, and submits the proposed budget to Council at the second
Council meeting in July. At the budget workshop meeting in August, Council has the
opportunity to review the budget with the City Manager and Directors, and discuss their
opinions and any concerns.
After the Council budget workshop there is a public hearing on the budget and a public hearing
on the tax rate. Although public hearings on the tax rate are only required by law if certain
criteria are met, the city conducts at least one public hearing each year whether required or
not. This gives Citizens a chance to voice their opinions. In the FY2014 budget process, two
public hearings were required on the tax rate. To be consistent, the city chose to hold two
public hearings on the budget as well.
The City Council adopts the final budget at the first regular Council meeting in September.
Budget Adjustments/Amendments
Budget changes that do not affect the "bottom line" total for a department, but transfer dollars
from one line item to another within a department's operating budget, or changes between
divisions within a department, are allowed at each Director's discretion. Any budget
adjustment that brings about a change in the total appropriation for a department may be
allowed by the City Manager at the written request of the department, based on the city's
ability to fund the request. Any budget adjustment that brings about a change in total
appropriations requires Council's approval in the form of an ordinance.

BUDGETPROCESS
2013.2014 FISCAL YEAR
Strategic Plan
The City of Allen takes the "team approach" to strategic planning. All departments participate
in the development of the city's Strategic Plan, which is a detailed expansion of the eight goal
statements developed by the City Council. The City Council, along with the City Manager and
Directors, has identified one or more strategies related to each goal. Each of those strategies
has one or more objectives which are incorporated into the budget as resources are needed to
achieve them. Department summaries found throughout this document identify tasks related
to attaining these objectives, in addition to normal "daily" operations.
Each year, beginning in October, departments provide the City Manager's office with an
updated status for each objective, as well as any suggestions for additional objectives which
will help achieve the city's overall goals. These are compiled into the updated Strategic Plan
document, which is presented to Council at the January strategic planning session. This
session is attended by the Council, the City Manager, Assistant City Manager, and Department
Directors. At this meeting, Council reviews the status of existing goals, and identifies additional
goals. Based on this input, any newly identified goals and objectives are then incorporated
into the revised, updated document.
On the following pages the Strategic Plan Summary is presented, followed by a list of the
objectives for each goal strategy. A complete list of tasks related to each objective may be
found in the complete Strategic Plan document, published by the City Manager's office. The
information presented here is from the 2013 Strategic Plan document, which was the basis and
justification for budget items requested for FY2014.
Capital Budget
The capital planning and budgeting process is a major, ongoing part of the strategic planning
process. Each year, the Engineering, Finance, and Planning departments, working with other
departments, reevaluate project priorities, review funding sources, and identify new projects as
needed. This information is incorporated into the five-year CIP document. The updated
document is given to the City Council in late July, at the same time the proposed budget is
presented. Approved by Council at the same time the annual operating budget is adopted, this
document is used as a guide for project, debt, and other related budget planning. As such,
future years are subject to change. In addition, debt issuance for future projects may be
subject to voter approval.
Throughout the year projects are monitored and reprioritized as necessary. The city utilizes
the project accounting and budgeting components of the financial software to assist with the
monitoring aspect of the process. Monthly reports are provided to Council to keep them
informed of the status of projects.
Information from the CIP document, along with further discussion of capital projects, may be
found in the "Capital Projects" section of this book.

CITY OF ALLEN
FINANCIAL POLICIES AND PRACTICES
FISCAL YEAR 2013-2014
Introduction
The City of Allen, Texas financial policies and practices set forth the basic framework for the fiscal
management of the city. These policies and procedures were developed within the parameters
established by applicable provisions of the Texas Local Government Code, the City of Allen Charter
and internal management.
Basis of Accounting and Budgeting
The city's finances are accounted for in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP) as established by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB).
The accounts of the city are organized and operated on the basis of funds and account groups. Funds
are established according to governmental accounting standards and are used to aid management in
demonstrating compliance with finance -related legal and contractual provisions. The number of funds
maintained is the minimum needed to be consistent with legal and managerial requirements.
The city uses a budget format based on modified accrual accounting for governmental funds. This
means that budgeted expenditures are recorded when the services or goods are received and the
liabilities are incurred, but revenues are recognized only when they are measurable and available.
Proprietary Funds are budgeted using an accrual accounting basis. Expenditures are still recognized
as they are encumbered, but revenues are recognized as they are obligated to the city.
The city utilizes encumbrance accounting for its Governmental Fund types, under which purchase
orders, contracts and other commitments for the expenditure of monies are recorded in order to reserve
that portion of the applicable appropriation. Outstanding encumbrances at fiscal year-end do not
constitute expenditures or liabilities; these commitments are re -appropriated and honored the
subsequent fiscal year. Significant encumbrances are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements
in conjunction with other commitments.
The city's operating budget is adopted on an annual basis; all appropriations lapse at fiscal year end.
Capital projects have project -length or multi-year budgets approved by Council.
The budget is prepared in accordance with GAAP, with the exception of depreciation and amortization,
and compensated absences (accrued but unused vacation and sick leave). These are accrued in the
financial statements of the proprietary funds, but are not shown as expenses in the budget.
Financial Reporting
Following the conclusion of the fiscal year, the city's accounting records are audited by an independent
public accounting firm. The Finance department is responsible for preparing a Comprehensive Annual
Financial Report (CAFR) in accordance with generally accepted accounting and financial reporting
principles established by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The document shall
also satisfy all criteria of the Government Finance Officers Association's Certificate of Achievement for
Excellence in Financial Reporting program.
The CAFR shows the status of the city's finances on the basis of generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP). The CAFR shows fund revenues and expenditures on both a GAAP basis and
budget basis for comparison purposes.
The results of the annual audit prepared by independent certified public accountants designated by the
City Council is included as part of the CAFR.

CITY OF ALLEN
FINANCIAL POLICIES AND PRACTICES
FISCAL YEAR 2013-2014
On-line reporting has been developed to allow individual departments to review and compare actual
expenditures to budget as needed. The Finance department also reviews operating revenues and
expenditures, recommending adjustments as needed. On a quarterly basis, the Finance Department
submits reports to the Council of receipts and disbursements in sufficient detail to show the financial
condition of the city. Status reports for capital projects are provided to Council each month.
Fund Balance, Working Capital and Debt Management Policy
To establish key elements for the financial stability of the city, the City Council has formally approved a
separate Fund Balance, Working Capital and Debt Management Policy, setting guidelines for the
purpose of funds, reserves and debt management.
Reserves
The city maintains a prudent level of financial resources to protect against the need to reduce service
levels or raise taxes and fees due to temporary revenue shortfalls or unpredicted one-time
expenditures. In the General Fund, that level is 60 to 90 days of operating expenses. In the Water and
Sewer fund, the policy is for 90 to 120 days of operating expenses. In the Debt Service Fund a range
of 5% to 10% of the required annual principal and interest payments is maintained and in the Risk
Management fund, the city maintains a minimum reserve of $500,000 to cover unexpected costs
relating to health insurance claims; the city is self-insured for this component of the fund. All funds are
monitored and managed according to the intended purpose of the individual fund.
Debt Management
All debt issuances are for the purposes of financing capital infrastructure or long-lived costly assets.
Each debt issuance is evaluated against multiple policies addressing: debt service as a percent of
operating expenditures, tax and revenue bases for the repayment of debt, the overall debt burden on
the community, statutory limitations and market factors affecting tax-exempt interest costs. Sizing of
the city's capital improvement program based on debt rapacity in conjunction with conservatively
estimated payors -you go revenues help stabilize per capita debt and lower annual debt service costs to
the city over the long-term. When interest rates decline, the city will analyze the benefits of issuing
advance and current refunding bonds in order to take advantage of the economic gain obtained from
the reduction of long-term interest costs. The city has identified the maximum amount of debt and debt
service that should be outstanding at any time (see "Debt Policy", in the Debt Service Fund section, as
well as the discussion of debt in the Capital Projects section of this document).
Investment Policies
The City Council has formally approved a separate Investment Policy for the City of Allen that meets
the requirements of the Public Funds Investment Act (PFIA), Section 2256 of the Texas Loral
Government Code. This policy is reviewed annually by the City Council and applies to all financial
assets held by the city.
Investment Strategies
The city maintains portfolios which utilize the following four specific investment strategy considerations
designed to address the unique characteristics of the fund groups represented in the portfolios:
Operating Funds: to assure that anticipated rash flows are matched with adequate investment
liquidity and to create a portfolio structure which will experience minimal volatility during
economic cycles.
City of Allen 28 FY2014 Budget
CITY OF ALLEN
FINANCIAL POLICIES AND PRACTICES
FISCAL YEAR 2013-2014
Debt Service Funds: the assurance of investment liquidity adequate to cover the debt service
obligation on the required payment date.
Reserve Funds: generate a dependable revenue stream to the appropriate fund from securities
with a low to moderate degree of volatility.
Special projects or special purpose funds: assure that anticipated cash flows are matched with
adequate investment liquidity.
Investment Objectives
The city shall manage and invest its rash with four objectives listed in priority order:
• Safety of the principal invested
• Liguldity and availability of cash to pay obligations when due
• Receive the highest possible rate of returnfield consistent with the city's investment policy
• Investment officials shall act responsibly as custodians of the public trust.
Responsibility and Control
Authority to manage the city's investment program is designated by a resolution adopted by the City
Council. The Chief Financial Officer is designated as the primary investment officer and the Assistant
Finance Director is the secondary investment officer. Investment officers shall attend at least one
training session related to the officers responsibility under the Act within 12 months after taking office
or assuming duties. Investment officers are required to attend one training session every two years.

must contain information required by the Public Funds Investment Act and include beginning and
ending market values of each separately invested asset, purchase and maturity dates, additions and
changes to the market value and fully accrued interest for the reporting period.

FISCAL YEAR 2013-2014
Procurement Planning
All city purchases of goods or services are made in accordance with the Texas Loral Government
Code, including Chapter 252, Purchasing and Contracting Authority of Municipalities, other relevant
federal, state and local statutes. The city's purchasing policy requires all purchases greater than
$15,000 be approved by the City Manager and purchases of $50,000 or greater must be advertised in
accordance with the competitive bid process and awarded by the City Council.
The city implemented a Procurement Card (P -card) Program as a cost-effective alternative to the
existing purchase order process. The P -card is used for small dollar/high volume purchases to assist
employees to more quickly and easily obtain the goods and services needed to get the job done.
Internal management controls together with the card's inherent controls will ensure that the card can be
used only for specific purchases and within specific dollar limits. Periodic audits of P -card purchases
will be conducted with the objective to determine compliance with the P -card and city purchasing
procedures.
The following shows a summary of approval requirements for purchases.
Prompt Payment
All invoices approved for payment by the proper city authorities shall be paid within thirty (30) calendar
days of receipt of goods or services or invoice date, whichever is later, in accordance with state law.
The city will take advantage of all purchase discounts when possible. Checks are issued every Friday
of the month except on holidays.
Insurance and Risk Management
The city has a comprehensive risk management program, including property, liability, safety, workers'
compensation, health, dental and wellness.
The city has established a self-insurance plan for city employees and their covered dependents for
medical and dental care. A commercial insurance company re -insures the city for individual claims in

excess of $125,000. The city participates in the Texas Municipal League Intergovernmental Risk Pool
(TMLIRP), which provides the city with a full range of insurance products and services. TMLIRP carries
the city's general liability, property and casualty, and workers compensation insurances.
Balanced Budget
The city is committed to a balanced budget, and provides full disclosure when a deviation from a
balanced budget is planned, or when one occurs. The city defines a balanced budget as one in which
total appropriated expenditures are equal to or less than total projected revenues plus beginning fund
balances.
Long -Range Planning
The city's annual budget process involves incorporating the goals and strategies identified by the City
Council's three-year Strategic Plan to provide for the community's highest priority needs. Strategic
planning begins with determining the city's fiscal capacity based upon long-term financial forecasts of
recurring available revenues. The city's five-year Capital Improvement Program is used as a guide for
project, debt, and other related budget planning.
Revenue Diversification
The city is cognizant of the fad that a diversity of revenue sources is important in order to improve its
ability to handle fluctuations in individual sources. The city continues to search for new revenue
sources, while monitoring economic and legislative threats to current sources.
Use of One-time Revenues
The City of Allen does not use one-time revenues for ongoing expenditures. Similarly, it does not allow
ongoing expenditures to result in a decrease to fund balance in any fund.
City of Allen 31 FY2014 Budget
CITY OF ALLEN
REVENUE SUMMARY
2013.2014 FISCAL YEAR
The city's largest revenue sources are ad valorem taxes, sales taxes, and charges for services.
Below is a discussion of these major revenue sources and the underlying assumptions used in
developing the budget. It also includes any significant trends that affect the revenue
assumptions in the current and future fiscal years.
Ad Valorem Taxes
(27.0% of Total Revenues)
Ad Valorem Taxes are the city's second largest revenue source overall, and are the largest
revenue source in the General fund. Total estimated property tax revenues for FY2014 are
$46.1 million. This is for the General, Debt Service, and Tax Increment Financing (TIF) funds.
The General fund portion makes up 42.5% of that fund's budgeted revenues and is estimated at
$34.3 million for fiscal year 2013-2014. The portion allocated to the Debt Service fund is
approximately $11.8 million. These two include the TIF fund amount of $555 thousand.
The city's property tax is levied each October 1 on the assessed value listed as of the prior
January 1 for all real and certain personal property located in the city. Appraised values are
established by the Collin Central Appraisal District at 100% of estimated value and certified by
the Appraisal Review Board. The assessed value upon which the 2013 levy (for FY2014) was
based is $8,373,043,840. The collection rate is estimated at 100% and is based on the city's
historically high collection rate. The total tax rate was lowered to $.550 per $100 of valuation, of
which $0.409121 is for General Fund operations. The remainder of the tax rate, $0.140879 per
$100 of valuation, is for the Debt Service Fund. Portions from both the General and Debt
Service funds will be allocated to the TIF fund.

The chart above illustrates the growth in total property tax revenues over the last 10 years. In
recent years, the debt portion of the revenues has increased to cover debt that has been issued
for new facilities. This is consistent with the city's long-term plan, which is updated annually.

CITY OF ALLEN
REVENUE SUMMARY
2013-2014 FISCAL YEAR
Sales Tax
(19.8% of Total Revenues)
Sales taxes are collected by retailers and remitted to the State Comptroller's Office for the sale
of goods and services within the City of Allen. The state returns the portion designated for the
city. The city receives 2 cents of the total sales tax collected. One cent is used in the General
Fund. The other 1 cent is split between the Allen Economic Development Corporation and the
Allen Community Development Corporation, and is the primary source of revenue in those two
funds. Due to new development, the city's sales tax continues to grow, and makes up
approximately 20.9% of the total General Fund revenues. This avoids too heavy a reliance on
such an elastic source of revenue. With the growth in previous years, the City Council has
made an effort to use sales tax revenue to reduce the property tax rate for the citizens of Allen.
Fiscal year 2013 revised is projected at $32.6 million and fiscal year 2014 is projected at $34.2
million.

Charges for Services
(38.8% of Total Revenues)
User charges are the largest source of revenue for the city, projected for FY2014 at $67.3
million. Well over half of this is for revenues in the Water and Sewer and Solid Waste funds.
The remainder comes from charges in the Drainage Utility fund, user fees for various Parks and
Recreation programs and facilities, charges for services such as ambulance service and alarm
registration fees, and internal charges that allow for cash funding of vehicle and equipment
replacement and allocated costs of insurance premiums and claims.
Discussion will focus on the largest portion of this category, which comes from Water and Sewer
and Solid Waste revenues.

REVENUE SUMMARY
2013-2014 FISCAL YEAR
Water and Sewer Fund
Water and Sewer revenues are collected for the sale of water and disposal of sewage for
residential, commercial and apartment usage. Revenues for fiscal year 2013-2014 are
estimated at $20.3 million for water sales and $13.3 million for sewer charges. The city's water
and sewer rate study is used as a guide for projecting water and sewer revenues. The city
updated the rate study in late FY2012.

REVENUE SUMMARY
2013-2014 FISCAL YEAR
Other Revenue Sources
Although not a large percentage of total city revenues, franchise fees and licenses and permits
are an important part of General fund revenues. Fluctuations in these revenue sources due to
economic conditions can have a significant impact on the General fund.
Franchise Fees
Franchise Fees are received from specific entities that provide utility services to residents and
businesses in the City of Allen. Utilities (electric, telephone, gas, and cable) that operate in the
City pay this fee for their use of the city's right of way to run their utility lines. Telephone
franchise fees are based on number of access lines. Other franchise fees are based on a
percentage of gross receipts or units of energy sold. Projections are based on population
increase and projected utility use. Franchise fees for fiscal year 2013-2014 are projected at
approximately $6.8 million.
Licenses and Permits
License and Permit revenues represent 1.8%, or approximately $1.48 million, of the total
projected General fund revenues for the new fiscal year. They are made up of commercial
permits, and City licensing revenues and inspection fees, and are collected by the Building
Inspections department. They include project permits that cover all parts of construction
(electrical, plumbing, and mechanical permits and certificate of occupancy fees), specific
permits (fences, electric, plumbing, etc.) and service fees (re -inspections, special inspections
and special services). Overall permit revenue for FY2014 is expected to be less than the
FY2013 revised estimates given no multifamily permits are anticipated in FY2014. A moderate
increase in single family permits revenue is expected and no increase in commercial permits
revenue is expected.

DEBT SERVICE FUND
FISCAL YEAR 2013-2014
Debt Policy
The City of Allen issues general obligation bonds for a term of generally twenty years, for the
purpose of constructing major capital improvements which include municipal facilities, parks and
streets. Article XI, Section 5 of the Texas Constitution, applicable to cities of more than 5,000
population states that the maximum rate shall not exceed $2.50 per $100.00 of assessed valuation
of taxable property. The City's Charter (Article 5, Section 1) states: "In accordance with the
constitution of the State of Texas, and not contrary thereto, the City of Allen shall have the power
to borrow money against the credit of the city for any public purpose that is not now nor hereafter
prohibited by the constitution and laws of the State of Texas". The City's debt policy, adopted by
Council in September 2011, is to keep the portion of ad valorem tax collections appropriated to the
debt service fund below 35% and to maintain a fund balance between 5% and 10% of annual
principal and interest payments. The proposed tax rate at October 1, 2013 is $0.552 per $100.00 of
assessed valuation of which $0.140852, or 25.52%, is designated to the debt service fund. This is
within the limits of the state law and is below the City's policy limit.
Bond Ratings
In May 2013, the ratings on the City's General Obligation debt were reaffirmed at AAA by Standard
and Poor's, and were reaffirmed at Aal by Moody's. The ratings on the City's Water & Sewer
Revenue debt were upgraded to AAA from AA+ by Standard and Poor's in June 2012. The Water &
Sewer rating was recalibrated by Moody's to Aa2 from Aa3 in May 2010. The City's CDC Revenue
debt rating is Al. The EDC Revenue debt rating was recalibrated to Aa3 from Al by Moody's in May
2010.

CAPITAL PROJECTS
The City's five-year Capital Improvement Program represents the Capital Budget for 2014
and is a financial plan for infrastructure and other improvements through 2018. The
Engineering and Planning departments, in conjunction with those departments whose
projects are included, prepare this plan. The CIP is a separate document that is formally
adopted as part of the annual budget process. The CIP is used as a guide for project, debt,
and other related budget planning. Current year projects have been approved. Future years
of the plan may change, with the later years being the most subject to change. Also, it is
important to note that for some future projects, debt funding is subject to approval by the
electorate. Voters approved a $77.9 million bond proposal in May 2007. The list of projects
includes streets, drainage, public facilities such as an athletic complex, public art projects,
parks and recreation, public safety facility upgrades, and a fire station.
Approximately $27.96 million is allocated to spend on capital projects in FY2014. Following
are brief descriptions of the larger projects that will be in progress, and a discussion of the
relationship between the capital budget and the operating budget. Also included is a
complete list of all CIP projects that are in the current plan, and debt information as it relates
to capital projects. More complete information may be found on each project in the City's

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN OPERATING AND CAPITAL BUDGETS
The City's operating and capital projects budgets are closely linked. The capital budget is a
multi-year financial plan of the capital improvement program (CIP) for the acquisition,
expansion, or rehabilitation of infrastructure, capital assets, or productive capacity of City
Services.
Revenues for the capital budget come from bond sales, intergovernmental revenues, 4a/4b
sales taxes, development fees, and some current operating revenues. The capital
improvement program, unlike the operating budget, is a five-year plan. The plan is reviewed
and projects are reprioritized on an ongoing basis.
Impact of Capital Projects on the Operating Budget
Capital projects impact the operating budget in several ways. First, since the City is
committed to systematically investing in infrastructure (Strategic Goal #5), each year funds
are set aside in the operating budget to provide cash financing toward some projects. Also,
the City must generate enough operating revenues to cover any payments for General
Obligation and Revenue debt incurred for long -tens financing of capital projects approved
this year and in prior years. These represent funds that would otherwise be available to pay
for other programs, services, or projects. Finally, after projects are completed, there is
usually a need for additional funding to cover ongoing maintenance, utilities, other operating
costs, and sometimes additional personnel or equipment. This year the total estimated
impact of the capital budget on the operating budget is approximately $22.2 million.
Operating Capital
Budget Budget
$174.3m $28.Om
$22.2m
Cash Financing and Debt Service
Debt service payments and cash financing for projects comprise $21.53 million of this total.
The debt service payments are $18.36 million; of this amount, $12.23 million is for General
Obligation debt, and $6.13 million is for Revenue debt. Budgeted transfers from operating
funds to the Capital Projects funds are $3.17 million, and include:
Water and Sewer Proiects: $2,870,000. Of this total, $2,500,000 is allocated for water and
sewer line replacement projects. In addition, $170,000 is appropriated for pump station and
lift station improvements, and $200,000 is budgeted for un -programmed replacement of
maintenance needs.
Solid Waste Proiects: $300,000 is allocated for major alley repairs.
City of Allen 228 FY2014 Budget
Other Operating Costs
In addition to cash financing and debt service, the increases in operating costs in the
FY2013-2014 budget related to the CIP totals approximately $642,000. These are listed
below by project type. Increases are stated in comparison to the FY2013 revised budget.
Facilities:
Approximately $86,000 was added to the budget for FY2014 in personnel cost to support
application and technology upgrades.
Pavina. Drainaae, and Sicnalization Proiects:
The impact in this category is an increase of about $51,000. This includes approximately
$41,000 for maintenance related to street lights, traffic signals, and street markings, and
about $10,000 in the areas of street sweeping and drainage system maintenance. Costs in
this category will continue to increase over the next few years as many of the newest
thoroughfares begin to age.
Water and Wastewater Proiects:
The City continues to allocate resources for meter replacement. For FY2014, $385,000 is
allocated for this ongoing program. In addition, $120,000 is allocated for mains and
connections.

City of Allen 232 FY2014 Budget
Debt
Part of the process of updating the City's Capital Improvement Program (CIP) each year
involves identifying projects that may require funding through debt issuance. On the following
pages are long-term scenarios of the City's General Obligation and Revenue debt, based on
the projects planned for the next several years.
Below are the assumptions used in the development of these scenarios followed by a
discussion of the City's debt capacity. Again, this is based on the current plan; future years
are subject to change.
General Obligation Debt Assumptions
The General Obligation debt projections assume that the debt portion of the tax rate will
increase from 0.140879 in FY2014 to 0.149499 in FY2015 due to approximately a $10 million
issuance in FY2014. The debt rate will then gradually decrease over the next two years to
0.135029 in FY2017, as the remaining debt is issued from the $78 million approved in May of
2007. All years assume a collection rate of 99%. Over the next several years, the portion of
the tax rate dedicated to debt would remain between approximately 24% and 28%, which is
below the City's policy limit of 35%. The policy was approved by the City Council in September
2011 to reflect a more conservative approach to debt and to ensure that the operational needs
of the City receive a higher tax rate allocation.
The assumption for growth in the tax base through FY2017 ranges from 4.0% to 4.6%, based
upon general growth in residential and commercial property along Highway 121, US 75
Highway, and in areas of vacant land throughout the City. The rate of growth decreases in
subsequent years, as reflected in the City's Comprehensive Plan, due to build out of the
available land that is zoned residential. Commercial activity is expected to continue for another
15 years until it reaches build out.
The debt scenario that follows reflects all currently authorized bond issues. The voters
approved approximately $78 million in May 2007 for future infrastructure improvements and
public facilities, along with a 4.4 cent potential tax increase to help cover the additional
operating costs associated with these projects.
Revenue Debt Assumptions
Revenue debt and water and sewer rates are managed according to the City's Water and
Sewer rate study. A rate study was completed in December of 2012. The forward looking
impact of the revenues and expenditures in the Water and Sewer Fund is shown in the
following "Water/Wastewater Cost of Service Model" table from the rate study.
The plan includes annual water rate increases from 2% to 7% for water customers over the
next three years and 10% for sewer services. In order to promote water conservation, the
irrigation rates are projected to increase 7% per year for the next four years.
Adequate revenues are projected to meet ongoing operational cost increases, to provide
funding for water and sewer infrastructure improvements, and to provide for existing debt
service. No new debt is planned to be issued in the near future for water and sewer projects.
Included in the rate study was a population growth factor that was consistent with the City's
long-range Comprehensive Plan. The water and sewer bond covenants stipulate a debt
coverage ratio of 1.2 times the annual debt service for the fiscal year on all outstanding bonds.
Over the next four years, the coverage ratio is expected to range from 2.70 to 4.31 according
City of Allen 233 FY2014 Budget
to the rate model. Projections also take into consideration a working capital adequacy test of
approximately 90 to 120 days of expenditures. The projected days of working capital over the
next four years is expected to be approximately 120 days according to the rate model.
Debt Capacity
In 2006 the City's policy of limiting the debt portion of the total tax rate to 40% would have
translated into authorizing approximately $138 million of new debt. From a cash flow and tax
rate perspective the 2006 CIP Committee felt that $78 million of new debt was the maximum
amount the community could afford. The Committee proposed and voters elected to approve
$78 million in new debt and raise taxes for the operating impact of the projects. The
recommendation also took into consideration the City's requirement at that time to maintain a
reserve of 10% in the Debt Service Fund. If the City had authorized the maximum of $138
million, the debt tax rate would have increased to 39.5% of the total tax rate. Although this
percentage was just below the 40% in the old policy limit, there also would have been an
additional impact upon the City due to the operating costs associated with projects totaling the
larger amount. The combination of operating costs and new debt service associated with $138
million of new debt would have raised taxes more than the 4.4 cents voters approved.
As mentioned earlier, the City's debt policy limit is now 35%. The projected growth in the
assessed value and fund balance of the G.O. Debt Service Fund indicates that the City has
more than enough capacity to issue additional debt over the next several years. The
remaining authorized but unissued G.O. Debt is $20.73 million from the 2007 election and
$16.685 million from the 2002 election. During the next three years the plan is to issue:
FY2014-$10.55 million, FY2015-$6.18 million and FY2016-$4.0 million. As mentioned above,
the City has the capacity to issue the bonds that have been authorized. It is projected that the
percentage of the tax rate dedicated to debt service over the next several years will be
between 24% and 28%. Additionally, the debt service long range plan reflects a fund balance
that meets the fund balance reserve requirement of 5% to 10% of the annual debt service.
The City has been proactive in building its water and sewer infrastructure. Since completion of
the Custer Road pump station and storage project in FY2007, the City has had adequate
storage tanks and water towers in place. The Hillside Water Tower replacement project is
complete. It was primarily cash funded and had supplemental funding from Economic
Development Corporation (EDC) sales tax revenue bond proceeds. The Hillside Water Tower
had been the oldest water tower in the City and needed to be replaced. The replacement water
tower increased the system capacity by 1,500,000 gallons and will essentially provide for
future growth as the City reaches build out in population and commercial development. The US
75 Highway Waterline Replacement project is also partially cash financed from water and
sewer revenues and EDC sales tax revenue bonds proceeds. Water and sewer line
replacements in the older part of the Central Business District may need to be replaced
through cash financing or with funding from a Tax Increment Redevelopment Zone. At this
time, there is adequate additional debt capacity in the Water and Sewer area because the debt
coverage ratio is projected to range from 2.70 to 4.31 as mentioned above.

FUND BALANCE,
WORKING CAPITAL RESERVE
AND
DEBT MANAGEMENT
POLICY

September 27, 2011
City of Allen 246 FY2014 Budget
PURPOSE
The purpose of this document is to establish key elements for the financial stability of the City by setting
guidelines for fund balance, working capital reserves and debt management. Adherence to a debt
management policy signals to rating agencies and capital markets that a government is well managed and
should meet its obligations in a timely manner. Debt levels and their related annual costs are important long-
term obligations that must be managed within available resources.
It is essential that the City maintain adequate reserves to mitigate financial risk that can occur from
unforeseen revenue fluctuations and unanticipated expenditures. To allow for flexibility and guidance, this
policy establishes ranges of reserves to make it possible for the City to provide continuous operational
services to the public and to issue future debt.
Nothing in this policy shall restrict the reserves from exceeding the stated ranges or goals. To ensure stable
tax rates, it is essential that the City maintain adequate levels of unrestricted reserves to mitigate current or
future risks from revenue shortfalls, economic downturns, unanticipated expenditures and impacts from
weather. Furthermore, anticipated cash financing of projects may result in the fund balances and/or working
capital reserves to exceed the ranges while funds are accumulated.
DEFINITIONS
Enterprise Fonds — are used to account for operations that are financed and operated in a manner similar to
private business enterprises where the intent is that the costs of providing goods and services to the general
public on a continuing basis be financed or recovered primarily through user charges (i.e. Water and Sewer,
Solid Waste).
Fund Equity — A fund's equity is generally the difference between its assets and its liabilities.
Fund Balance — An accounting distinction is made between the portions of fund equity that are spendable and
nonspendable. In accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement 54, Fund Balance
Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions, the City classifies governmental fund balance into five
categories:
(1) Nonpendable fund balance — includes amounts that are not in a spendable form or are
required to be maintained intact. Examples am inventory or permanent funds.
(2) Restricted fund balance — includes amounts that can be used only for the specific purposes
stipulated by external resource providers either constitutionally or through enabling
legislation. Examples include federal grants and general obligation bonds.
(3) Committed fund balance — includes amounts that can be used only for the specific purposes
determined by a formal action of the government's highest level of decision-making
authority. Commitments may be changed or lifted only by the government taking the same
formal action that imposed the constraint originally.
(4) Assigned fund balance — comprises amounts intended to be used by the government for
specific purposes. Intent can be expressed by the governing body or by an official or body to
which the governing body delegates the authority. In governmental funds other than the
general fund, assigned fund balance represents the amount that is not restricted or committed.
This indicates that resources in other governmental funds are, at a minimum, intended to be
used for the purpose of that fund.
(5) Unassigned fund balance — is the residual classification of the General Fund and includes all
amounts not contained in other classifications. Unassigned amounts are technically available
for any purpose.
City of Allen 247 FY2014 Budget
Governmental Funds — are typically used to account for tax -supported activities (i.e. General Fund, Debt
Service Fund).
Working Capital Reserve — is the excess of current assets over current liabilities. It is the amount of liquid
capital needed in the enterprise funds to maintain the flow of capital from cash to inventories to receivables
than back again to cash.
St4!aIRIU;Tl1fIa9 sIZa)II 114
1) Committed Fund Balance
a) The City Council is the City's highest level of decision-making authority and the formal action
that is required to be taken to establish, modify, or rescind a fund balance commitment is a
resolution approved by the Council at the City's Council meeting.
b) The resolution must either be approved or rescinded, as applicable, prior to the last day of the
fiscal year for which the commitment is made. The amount subject to the constraint may be
determined in the subsequent period.
2) Assigned Fund Balance
a) The City Council authorizes the City Manager and/or Finance Director as the official authorized
to assign fund balance to a specific purpose as approved by this fund balance policy.
3) Minimum Fund Balance
a) General Fund
i) It is the goal of the City to achieve and maintain an unassigned General Fund balance that is
within a range of 60 to 90 days of annual expenditures.
ii) If unassigned General Fund balance falls below the goal or has a deficiency, the City will
establish a timeframe and work plan to replenish the fund balance. The work plan may
include tax increases, fee increases, reduction of services, and/or reduction of expenditures
(i.e. hiving freeze, salary freeze, or reduction of travel/training).
b) Debt Service Fund
i) On an annual basis, the Debt Service Restricted Fund balance shall be maintained in an
amount that is within a range of 5% to 1(Mof the required annual principal and interest
payments.
ii) For purposes of long term financial stability, a reserve in excess of 10% may be prudent in
order to reduce volatility of the tax rates between the General and Debt Service Funds.
iii) The fund shall remain in complete compliance with bond issue covenants.
4) Order of Expenditure of Funds
a) When multiple category of fund balance are available for expenditure (for example, a
construction project is being funded partly by a state grant, bonded debt, funds set aside by the
City Council, and unassigned fund balance), the City will start with the most restricted category
and spend those funds first before moving down to the next category with available funds.
City of Allen 248 FY2014 Budget
B.
5) Minimum Enterprise Fund Working Capital Reserves
a) If applicable, all funds shall remain in complete compliance with bond issue covenants.
b) Working capital reserve shall be maintained in an amount that is within a range of 90 to 120 days
of annual expenditures in order to provide for potential unanticipated needs or the impact of
weather.
c) If unassigned working capital falls below the goal or has a deficiency, the utility rate plan study
will be utilized to determine the appropriate course of action when determining rates and
establishing a timeframe to replenish working capital reserves.
The City's Charter (Article V, Section 5.1) states that the City of Allen has the power to borrow money
against the credit of the City for any public purpose that is not prohibited by the constitution and laws of
the State of Texas. Article XI, Section 5 of the Texas Constitution, applicable to cities of more than 5,000
population states that the maximum tax rate shall not exceed $2.50 per $100 of assessed valuation of
taxable property. This policy improves the quality of decisions, provides justification for the structure of
debt issuance, identifies policy goals, and demonstrates a commitment to long-term financial planning,
including a multi-year capital plan.
1) Capital Improvement Program
a) A capital improvement program shall be prepared, submitted to, and approved by the Council
annually pursuant to the City Charter, Article N.
b) The capital improvement program shall consist of at least a 5 -year priority listing of long term
capital projects, accompanied by a financing plan which reflects potential financing options for
all projects in the plan, and is supported by the appropriate sources of revenue. The financing
plan shall be in accordance with the debt management policies contained herein.
c) It is the intent of these policies that authorized projects and associated financings be included as
part of an adopted capital improvement program.
2) Debt Issuance Guidelines
a) Debt issuance will be utilized by the City only in those cases where public policy, equity and
efficient use of limited resources favor debt over other funding methods. Decision criteria
considered shall include the following:
i) Debt shall be self-supporting whenever possible. Self-supporting debt in this context will
either be revenue bonds secured by a specific revenue pledge (i.e., water and sewer
revenues) or general obligation debt including certificates of obligation where the debt
service will be paid from user fres or other specific revenues even though legally there is an
ad valorem tax pledge.
ii) Debt shall be primarily used to finance capital projects with a relatively long life
expectancy, i.e., generally ten (10) years or greater unless technology related.
iii) Short term debt may be issued as authorized by the City Council when circumstances or
opportunities are present and such issuance will not adversely affect the operating funds, the
ability to make debt payments, or jeopardize the financial integrity of the City or the
component units.
City of Allen 249 FY2014 Budget
iv) Debt shall be issued or structured in such a way so that the term of the financing does not
exceed the useful life of the asset.
v) The method of the debt sale shall be determined based upon the current market conditions.
vi) Debt refunding opportunities shall be monitored for potential savings or modifications to
certain covenants.
vii) The City will conduct its debt management functions in a manner designed to maintain or
enhance its existing credit ratings.
viii) Credit ratings shall be requested for long tern debt except when long term debt is issued as a
private placement. Bond insurance for long term debt shall be reviewed for its financial
feasibility.
ix) Investment of bond proceeds shall be in compliance with the City's investment policy.
x) The City shall have a program to comply with arbitrage rebate monitoring and filing.
xi) The City shall follow all mandated bond disclosure requirements.
xii) The City shall follow all bond covenants.
3) Debt Issuance Purposes and Revenue Sources
a) General capital improvements shall be financed in accordance with the capital improvements
program or as authorized by Article V of the City Charter, by City Council or the City Manager.
Funds shall be available for the financing of general improvements in accordance with the
following:
i) Current property tax revenues and future property tax revenues generated by increases in
valuation shall have priority allocation to the repayment of existing and future general
obligation tax supported debt. Remaining property tax revenues, together with sales tax and
other general fund revenues shall be used to fund the City's operating budget.
ii) To the extent funds described above we in excess of that required by the City's general fund
operating budget, all or a portion of the excess amount shall be used for pay-as-you-go
financing of general capital improvements or assets.
iii) It shall be a goal, but not a requirement, of the City to finance a portion of the city -at -large
capital improvement budget with pay-as-you-go financing with current resources remaining
from year-end savings.
iv) Debt service payments on general obligation bonds, not abated by other revenues, shall be
paid from the debt service property tax levy.
v) Outstanding bonds will be retired according to the debt repayment schedules.
vi) Refunding of debt is desired when the net present value savings will exceed 3% of the
existing debt service or when the net dollar savings will exceed $150,000. Negative
arbitrage and opportunity costs will be considered for advance refundings. Bond refundings
may also be considered in order to modify prior bond covenants or accomplish other specific
objectives. A negative net present value savings may be incurred in these cases.
City of Allen 250 FY2014 Budget
vii) Long term debt will not be issued by the City to finance projects for other governmental
entities that have the authority to issue tax-free or taxable bonds on their own behalf for those
purposes. If the other governmental entities and the City are partners in a project requiring
debt issuance, then long term debt issuance by the City may be considered.
viii) Assumptions for taxable assessed valuation increases and revenue growth shall be
conservative andjustifiable.
b) Debt issued for water, sewer and other purposes for which operating and capital needs are
supported by user fees, shall first be considered for issuance in the form of revenue bonds,
certificates of obligation, or other debt instruments secured by the appropriate user fees. User
fees shall be adequate to support operating requirements and revenue bond covenants for each
purpose. Certificates of Obligation secured by operating revenues may also need to be secured
with property taxes.
41 Debt Issuance Limits and Repayment Schedules
a) The City shall use the following limits to guide issuance of debt:
i) The City should not allocate mom than thirty five percent (355516) of its tax rate towards debt.
ii) It is the goal of the City that the outstanding debt consisting of general obligation bonds,
certificates of obligations, and capital leases that are supported by property taxes should not
exceed a direct debt burden ratio (tax debt to taxable assessed value) of two percent (2.0%).
iii) It is a goal of the City that property tax supported debt service, consisting of certificates of
obligation and general obligation debt payments should not exceed twenty-five percent
(25%) of expenditures for the general fund and debt service combined.
iv) If the City debt status is not at the levels stipulated by these policies at the time of their
adoption, a transition period in years will be set for each policy individually.
b) Repayment schedules shall be designed to relate to the useful life of the asset and generally be in
accordance with the following:
i) Twenty (20) years for most general obligation public improvement debt. Debt will generally
be structured with even payments over the life of the issue although principal reductions in
early years may be used to accomplish specific tax rate objectives.
ii) Ten (10) years or less for debt related to assets that have a life expectancy of 10 years or
less. Debt will generally be structured with even payments over the life of the issue or
matched against associated projected revenues.
iii) Twenty years or more (20+) years for capital projects of citywide significance and where
justified by the magnitude of the project and asset life. Debt will generally be structured with
even payments over the life of the issue although principal reductions in early years may be
used to accomplish specific tax rate objectives.
iv) On an overall basis, the City's general obligation debt portfolio will generally be structured
to retire at least fifty percent (50%) of the City's indebtedness within ten (10) years if the
debt repayment is planned for twenty (20) years.
City of Allen 251 FY2014 Budget
v) On an overall basis, the City's water and sewer revenue debt will generally be structured to
retire at least forty-five percent to fifty percent (45%-50%) of the system's indebtedness
within ten (10) years if the debt repayment is planned for twenty (20) years.
vi) If debt is issued that exceeds twenty (20) years, then it shall be a goal to structure the debt
repayment with level debt service payments or, in the case of revenue bonds, with an
amortization schedule that allows for the fastest debt repayment schedule while maintaining
appropriate debt service coverage ratios.
5) Management
a) It shall be the responsibility of the City Manager and his staff to maintain all necessary files
associated with the issuance of City debt
b) The City Manager shall submit to the City Council a debt service fiscal impact statement as part
of the annual budget process involving the planned issuance of debt in the capital improvements
program. The fiscal impact statement shall contain, at a minimum, an estimate of the debt service
levy to be required at the time of long term debt issuance and a calculation showing the impact of
this additional levy on the existing debt service levy at that time. The fiscal impact statement
shall provide information on any projected user fee rate increases in the case of revenue bond or
self-supporting debt financing.

WHERE IS ALLEN,
_ TEXAS?
CITY OF ALLEN
City of Allen is located approximately 25 miles north of
Dallas, Texas.

CITY OF ALLEN
DEMOGRAPHICS
2013.2014 FISCAL YEAR
The City of Allen is located in Collin County in North Central Texas and is approximately 12
miles north of Interstate 635 on U.S. 75. Allen is completely surrounded by incorporated cities.
To the north lies the City of McKinney; to the south, the City of Plano; to the east, the City of
Lucas; and to the west, the City of Plano.
Allen was settled in the early 1850's from land grants given by the Republic of Texas as an
inducement for settlers to come to the frontier. The railroad and telegraph came to Allen in
1872 and in future years made substantial contributions to the local economy. The City was
officially incorporated in 1953 with a Council/Manager form of government. Similar in
importance to the construction of the railroad almost a century before was the completion of
U.S. 75 through Allen in 1960. Citizens could work at nearby companies because of the
access and convenience of the highway. The relocation of technology companies to the North
Dallas and Richardson areas in the 1960's drastically increased employment opportunities for
Allen's citizens, and the population rose to 1,940. It continued to increase to 8,324 in 1980,
19,198 in 1990, 43,686 in 2000, and 89,210 as of August 2013.

Allen is 25 miles north of Downtown Dallas, on U.S. Highway 75. The City has established a
reputation in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex for its quality residential and commercial
developments. Important transportation routes serving the City include U.S. 75, which bisects
the City in a north/south direction and provides an important link to adjacent cities.
McDermott/Main Street runs in an east/west direction in the center of the City. S.H.
5/Greenville Avenue, which formerly was the main north/south thoroughfare, lies roughly
parallel to U.S. 75. State Highway 121 opened in early 2011 and offers Collin County
residents a direct route to the DFW International Airport.
Since its inception in 1992, the Allen Economic Development Corporation (AEDC) has
dedicated its resources to developing first-class technology parks and recruiting quality
industries and corporate campuses to the community. Allen's corporate landscape is now a
well-designed blend of telecommunication, data centers, medical, defense, semiconductor,
corporate offices and other technology -related industries.

In addition to creating jobs, AEDC projects relieve the property tax burden of the individual
homeowner. The AEDC has helped complete over 95 projects since its inception that have
added over $1.6 billion in taxable value to the Allen tax rolls. In recent years, Allen has moved
to a new level in its development with the addition of new office tenants, first-class dining and
shopping venues. Allen is recognized as an office and commerce/retail destination in North
Dallas.
Cisco, AT&T and Experian have all chosen to locate data centers in Allen because of the city's
prime location and abundant power supply. The AEDC recruited Andrews Distributing to build
a new office, training, and distribution facility in Allen. The 310,000 -square foot facility became
fully operational in 2012. The company created 450 jobs in Allen and has invested $45 million
in the project.
With AEDC assistance, Frontier Communications signed a 10 -year lease for 84,000 -square
feet of space at Bethany Drive and U.S. 75, bringing in approximately 450 jobs initially. Frontier
employs about 700 people and is expected to invest $6.5 million by the end of 2013. The
AEDC also recruited PFSweb, Inc., an eCommerce and business process outsourcing
solutions firm, to sign a 10 -year lease for 75,000 -square feet of space in Allen, currently with
450 employees with an expected growth to 700 jobs over the next 4 years. The software firm
TelStrat signed a 5 -year lease to relocate its headquarters into over 17,000 -square feet of
office space in Allen. The company will initially employ 34 high-tech workers, increasing to 42
over a 5 -year period.
With the addition of new tenants such as No Magic, Inc. and the expansion of existing tenants
such as KONE Elevators, One Allen Center in Allen Central Park is now over 95% occupied.
This 5 -story, Class A office building is located in a premier business park owned by the AEDC
in the heart of Allen's business district. The new leases in this building bring hundreds of
quality jobs to the City and increases economic activity at Allen's shopping developments.
Billings Productions leased 46,000 -square feet on Andrews Parkway and is experiencing a 30
percent annual growth rate. Billings Productions designs and builds animatronic dinosaurs
that are exhibited at zoos and museums around the world. The company recently began work
on an insect collection and employs 46 people.
City of Allen 1 256 FY2014 Budget
Two new companies, Bridgemetrics and Standex International, moved to Allen in 2013.
Bridgemetrics is a software company that started with 53 employees and has already grown to
74 positions. Standex International is a food service company that opened a culinary
development center in Allen with 45 employees. This location will serve as the corporate office
for the Cooking Solution Group and will be used for training, product development, and key
customer visits.
In May 2013, AEDC and Sentinel Capital, LLC announced the planned development of
AIIenPlace. This new four building office complex, located on North Central Expressway, will
add almost 500,000 square feet of space to the Allen market. Currently the occupancy rate for
office space in Allen is about 95%.
The AEDC and City of Allen are jointly assisting Watters Creek at Montgomery Farm, a
premiere mixed use development in Allen. The silver-LEED certified project has attracted
regional and national attention and added over $100 million in improvements to Allen's ad
valorem tax base. Additionally, the development provides new sales tax revenue. The project
includes 300 loft style apartments and 80,000 square feet of office space. Homeland
Healthcare recently expanded their offices in Allen, now occupying 25,000-sf in Watters Creek
at Montgomery Farm.
The AEDC and City of Allen recruited Cabala's to develop a new store in Allen, to be located
directly south of the Village at Allen. Cabala's officially opened in April of 2011. The 100,000 -
square foot facility employs approximately 260 workers and has produced over $40 million in
taxable sales annually. The company invested over $20 million in constructing the building.
The Allen Event Center hosts concerts, trade shows, professional sporting events, festivals,
and community ceremonies. The facility is the home of the Allen Americans, a Central Hockey
League (CHL) franchise team, an Indoor Football League team called the Texas Revolution
and the Dallas Sidekicks, an Indoor Soccer team that is in the Premier Arena Soccer League
(PASL) Pro League. The venue totals 188,000 -square feet with capacity for 8,600 seats
(6,275 fixed), 26 suites and two ice rinks. The development makes Allen a regional
entertainment destination. The Event Center is part of The Village at Allen, a 181 -acre mixed-
use project that includes 1,000,000 -square feet of retail, 500,000 -square feet of office and a
220 room, full-service hotel.
The AEDC works closely with the Allen Independent School District (AISD) to build alliances
with the business community through BEST (Business Education Support Team). This
committee provides guidance to AISD officials as they plan the curriculum for the new Career
& Tech Academy at Allen High School. The Academy helps ensure that Allen has the
workforce needed to continue sustainable economic development in the years ahead. AISD
opened the Career and Technology Education Center in August 2011 and the Performing Arts
Center in January 2012. AISD opened their new 18,000 seat football stadium, Eagle Stadium,
on August 31, 2012.
The AEDC board and staff are driven to build a diverse business and industry tax base that
provides additional public funding for police and fire protection, road improvements, a park and
trail system, and quality public schools. The companies recruited to the City by the AEDC
provide jobs and tax revenue that help the City of Allen grow and maintain the public services
that make Allen a great place to live, work and play.

Departmental
Performance
Measures
Departmental Performance Measures
Performance measurement can be defined as "measurement on a regular
basis of the results (outcomes) and efficiency of services or programs." t The
ultimate purpose of any performance measure is to provide a quantifiable
measure of the results or effectiveness of an action. In the case of
measurements in government, they are typically tied to programs and services.
By finding quantifiable measures that are tied to the goals of a service, the
effectiveness of the program can be judged against the preferred level of
achievement, against the program's past performance, and against similar
programs in other cities.
Performance measures fall into five categories. The first, and most simple,
is input measures which shows the amount and kinds of resources assigned to a
program. Budgets actually contain input measures when they show divisions of
money and personnel. The second category is output, or workload measures that
show amount of work performed and services received. Individually, these first
two Categories only provide a frame for the activities of a program, but when
outputs are examined in terms of the inputs needed to produce them, an
efficiency measure is created which is the first real measure of actual
performance. Outcome or Effectiveness measures are designed to report the
results of a program, especially the quality of the results. "Effectiveness refers to
the degree to which services are responsive to the needs and desires of a
community." z The final category is productivity measures, which combine
efficiency and effectiveness to show the cost to produce a quality result or how
poor results harm total costs (for example having to repair a street twice after
doing it poorly the first time).
The measures in this appendix fall into the final four categories. An
attempt was made to compose measures for the major functions of all City
departments. The measures were also designed to tie in as closely as possible
with the departmental goals and objectives listed in the departmental pages in
the budget. As a result these measures can be used as a tool for more accurate
budget decisions, as a gauge of goal achievement, plus as a running overview of
trends in departmental performance.

With the growth of Allen's destination assets, continued development and the
start of CVB operations, website traffic has continued to climb. The average
number of page views per month for 2010 was 200,030 and the average number
of page views per month for 2011 was 225,769.
In 2012, the City website transitioned to a new content management system that
offered increased functionality with online communication tools. The average
number of page views per month for 2012 was 228,935 which demonstrated a
slight increase in traffic. The estimated number of page view per month for 2013
based on January through July analytics is 224,403.
With the growth of the City close to build -out, it is anticipated that website traffic
will become somewhat static from year to year as demonstrated with the traffic
numbers for 2011, 2012 and the estimate for 2013.

Community Development
Building Services and Environmental Health
Division Introduction
The Building Services Division monitors compliance within the City of Allen to assure
that all buildings are built to an approved site plan, adopted building codes and
ordinances, and are ready for certificate of occupancy. The process involves four
primary functions; application processingladministration, plan review, field inspection,
and finally the production of a certificate of occupancy. The Building Services Division
receives applications and then coordinates with Fire, Planning and Zoning, Engineering,
Parks and Recreation, and Community Services in order to confirm compliance with the
Allen Land Development Code and Code of Ordinances. The Environmental Health
Division also has the task of conducting environmental health inspections at restaurants
and other food service establishments, day care facilities, public and semi-public (HOA)
swimming pools, and managing mosquito control efforts and other environmental health
issues.
Building Permit Plan Review Time
Developers and individuals who
desire to do construction projects
must fill out a permit application
and submit plans and other
supporting documents, which are
reviewed by the permit staff and a
plans examiner. This is the
application procedure when
applying for any type of building
peril in the City of Allen. The goal
is to provide for regulated growth
with quality assurance, comply with
all applicable building codes and
city regulators, and build
relationships with excellent
customer service. While single-
family development made up the
majority of the work load for many
years, the division now works with
a much more diverse project load.
Plan review is our opportunity to
make sure that compliance is
achieved with all applicable
building, local, and life safety code
requirements before proceeding
with construction. The Commercial
Permit Review Time chart reflects
how recent changes have reduced
the number of days it takes to
review a commercial project which,
in tum, allows us to become a
more user-friendly city.

Environmental Health Inspections
The Environmental Health Division inspects all food -service establishments, child-care
centers, public and semi-public swimming pools, apartment complexes, mobile food
vendors, and temporary food vendors within Allen to make certain that health codes are
being followed. Facilities that earn a poor score require immediate corrections and re-

Community Services (Streets)
Division Introduction
This division has the responsibility for maintaining the many miles of streets, alleys, and
sidewalks within the City.
Total Street Miles
Total street miles in Allen have
increased by approximately 7
miles in the past three years.
Although maintenance will
eventually increase as a result of
the new construction, for the
immediate future the new streets
will require little maintenance. All
new streets are constructed with
concrete due to lower
maintenance costs and greater
lifespan.
Street Conditions
The City's Pavement Service
Rating (PSR) system rates streets
on a 0-5 scale, with 0 being
impassible, 3 being satisfactory,
and 5 being excellent or newly
constructed. The rating measures
cracking, base condition, drainage,
surface condition, distortion, and
ride quality. Asphalt streets are
cheaper to build but more costly to
maintain than concrete. Concrete
streets are evaluated every four
years, and asphalt streets are
evaluated over a two year period,
50% one year and the other 50%
the next. Many of the City's
concrete streets are new, which
partially accounts for their good
condition.

Community Services (Water and Sewer)
Division Introduction
The Water and Sewer Division operates and maintains the system of pump stations,
ground storage, elevated storage, and mains that provides customers drinking water
provided by North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD). The division also operates
the system of lift stations and mains that returns wastewater to the NTMWD's interceptor
system for treatment.
Water Loss
Water loss is the difference
between the volume of water
purchased from NTMWD and the
volume of water sold to
customers. The numbers do not
subtract water loss resulting from
routine daily operations (such as
firefighting and water line
flushing), construction projects,
and service line and main line
breaks. The City's water loss
goal is based on the NTMWD
model water conservation plan
and is to not exceed 12%. The
running average of water loss for
the three prior years is also
shown. Due to the billing period variances, the three year average is a more representitive
indicator of water loss. With the extreme drought and high temperatures in FY 11, crews
flushed lines more than usual to maintain safe levels of disinfectant which accounts for the
rise in percentages. Large water line leaks have also been discovered and repaired.
Water Conservation
In 2004, the H2OME IMPROVEMENT REBATE
program began offering rebate incentives for
residential water conservation. Rebates up to
$125.00 are offered for water efficient washing
machines, pressure reducing valves, rain and
freeze sensors, low flow toilet, and rain barrels.
In 2009, an additional rebate for SMART irrigation
technology was added. The chart indicates the
total number of rebates processed for each year.

accounts and accounts handled
monthly by each Customer Service
Representative (CSR). We
currently have 5 FT CSR's, 1

The Solid Waste Division oversees residential and commercial waste services within
Allen. The division also administers and operates the City recycling programs and
Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) collection programs.
Recycling
The City of Allen measures the
impact of its recycling
programs by tracking the
pounds of materials diverted,
including co -mingled
recyclables and yard waste.
Recycling extends the life of
the landfill while allowing
resources (glass, paper,
plastics, and metals) to be
recovered for reuse or re-
manufacturing. The City

Allen ISD divert 4,648 Cubic Yards of single -stream recycling per year. Single -stream
residential recycling in 95 -gallon carts diverts 9,702 tons of materials from the landfill.
The NTMWD composting program converts yard trimmings into soil amendments,
saving landfill space through diversion of 2,799 tons. Public Education efforts in 2012
reached 2,251 adults and 4,440 youth through 43 hands-on environmental programs.
Trash Collection Complaints
The Solid Waste Division contracts with
Community Waste Disposal (CWD) for
garbage and recycling collection and
provides oversight to their operations. CWD's
contract renewed June 1, 2013 with

Household Hazardous Waste Collection
In FY2002, funding for the
residential HHW program was
approved by City Council. The
program began in February 2002
through a grant from NCTCOG
and continued without cost to
residents through FY2003. In FY
04, a $0.50 fee was included on
the water utility bill to support
the HHW program. In June
2008, a fee increase to $0.57 per
month was approved to
overcome the rising costs of non -
reusable HHW collection
disposal. This program is an important part of our Texas Pollution Discharge Elimination
System (TPDES) program. The HHW program is conducted in cooperation with the City
of Plano through an Interlocal Agreement. The program provides residents with an
environmentally safe way to remove household chemicals (paint, cleaners, oil, etc.)
from their homes. From the beginning of the program through April 2013, 87,934
pounds of reusable chemicals have been collected and redistributed to residents of
Allen and Plano. In July 2008, computer collection services changed from curbside
collection to scheduled quarterly collection at one day events. After four years of
quarterly collections, eOcycling has decreased, leading to a transition to twice a year
collections. This important service continues to eliminate another potential hazard from
the landfill system.

Community Services (Drainage)
Division Introduction
The Drainage Division monitors storm sewers and open drainage channels and cleans
and maintains them in order to ensure the free flow of drainage water that helps prevent
flooding. The division's budget also funds contract street sweeping and contract mowing
along drainage areas and greenbelts.
Street Sweeping
Curb Miles Swept
Arterial and collector roads are
swept during the year in order to
remove debris for aesthetics,
safety, and for TPDES permit
compliance. These are actual
"curb miles" of streets swept. The
number of curb miles is larger
than the number of street miles in
Allen because there are at least
two curb miles per mile of road
(one curb on each side) and up
to four curbs on roads with
medians. Arterials are swept
twice monthly and collectors are
swept once per month. The number of curb miles swept has grown due to the increase
in roads. A decrease in contract price allowed the City to begin sweeping arterials twice
monthly in 2003.

Engineering
Department Introduction
The Engineering Department plans and oversees infrastructure projects for the City.
This includes the capital improvements program as well as traffic control throughout
the City.
Capital Project Funding
Every year the City spends millions of dollars on large scale construction or
maintenance projects, and on comprehensive studies to prepare for such projects.
The Engineering division oversees these activities. Some of the larger projects
completed during FY 12-13 were Main Street from Allen Drive to US 75, Bethany
Drive from Allen Heights to the east city limit line. Chelsea Boulevard, Phase 1
(from Starcreek to SH 121) was completed in time for the seasonal shopping peak in
November. Construction is underway on 2013 Streets & Alley Repair project which
includes $1M of pavement replacement and 25 Barrier Free Ramps. Land
acquisition progressed for Ridgeview Drive (Alma to US 75) with construction
completed on the section from Watters Road to Stacy Road. Construction began to
widen Exchange Parkway (Alma to Allen Heights). Completed Police Station
Renovations. Chiller replacement, lighting and carpet replacement was completed
for the Municipal Court and Parks & Recreation building. At City Hall, the 2n' floor

Finance
Department Introduction
The Finance Department provides financial management in accordance with local,
state, and federal law, and ensures that city ordinances and policies and procedures are
followed. The department provides technical staff support for the City Council, staff,
and the public in the following areas:
• Accounting Division: cash and investments, debt management, accounts
payable, accounts receivable, fixed assets, grants, capital projects accounting
and financial reporting;
• Budget Division: budgets, financial analysis, quarterly financial reports, and
payroll; and
• Purchasing Division: securing materials and services, contract monitoring, and
disposing of surplus City property in compliance with Texas purchasing statutes.
Financial Management
To ensure long-term financial success of the City, sufficient reserves are required to
maintain City operations through unforeseen events. The City policy for the General
Fund is to maintain a range of 60 to 90 days of operational expenditures in reserve.
Water and Sewer bond covenants require that the Water and Sewer Fund maintain a
reserve fund equal to the average annual debt payment of all bonds. This is also a
critical element utilized by bond rafing agencies in determination of the City's bond
rating. Long-range financial planning and conservative budgeting has allowed the City
to maintain required reserves.

from violations of City ordinances and certain state laws. Responsibilities include: collection of
fines, fees and state costs; filing citationstcomplaints; court scheduling, issuing, tracking and
clearing warrants; maintaining the juror data base; updating and maintaining court records and
reporting collections, convictions and statistical data to appropriate State agencies. Cases
involving minors are handled by the Juvenile Case Manager, who works with the community
and surrounding cities to find new places where juveniles and minors may complete their court
appointed alcohol awareness class, drug awareness class, anger management class, family
counseling, and community service hours. In January 2009, the City voluntarily began
participating in the state collection program.
Statistics
Traffic offenses constitute approximately 95% of the total tickets issued. The Municipal Court
also receives tickets for animal and code enforcement violations. The following chart outlines

Awards
The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) has established criteria for
financial reporting, in which generally accepted accounting principles, applicable legal
requirements, and presentation guidelines must be satisfied — the end result to produce
an easily readable and efficiently organized report. The City's Annual Budget document
is also judged against criteria set by the GFOA, and is evaluated on how well it serves
as a policy document, a financial plan, an operations guide, and as a communication
device.
In addition, each year the Purchasing Division applies for the Achievement of
Excellence in Procurement Award from the National Purchasing Institute, which is
awarded for superior performance in the public procurement field. The City plans to
continue its participation in these programs in future years.
Although not an award, but an indication of the value of financial management, for the
fifth time in the history of the City the external audit for the period ending September 30,
2012 resulted in no deficiencies or "management comment items".

Fire Department
Department Introduction
The Fire Department's task is to prevent and mitigate property loss in Allen from fires
and the effects of natural and man-made disasters. Additionally, the department
provides emergency medical services. A heavy emphasis is placed on the prevention of
these occurrences through public education, fire suppression system installation and
code enforcement. Firefighter and paramedic training and equipment are equally critical
to insure a safe and effective response.
Calls for Service
One measure of the Fire
Department is the total number of
calls it receives. The number of
Emergency Medical Service (EMS)
incidents as well as fire calls is
increasing. Fire calls include all
non-medical calls such as fires,
gas leaks, chemical spills and
public assistance. Total incidents
in both categories are projected to
increase as the community grows
and both buildings and the
population age.

Average response time measures the
time required for emergency personnel to
travel to the scene. Response time can
be influenced by factors including traffic
congestion, road construction, and fire
station placement. Beginning in 2013,
'reflex time' has been added to the
average response time calculation. Reflex
time begins when the station is alerted
and ends when the vehicle begins
traveling toward the emergency. This
measures how quickly the FFs are able to

Injuries
This measure shows injuries to both
firefighters and the general public
resulting from fires. Injuries cannot be
completely eliminated, but an
emphasis on public education and
firefighter training will help keep these
to a minimum. There has been one
civilian death resulting from fire in the
current reporting period.
Property Loss
Property loss is a financial
measure of the damage caused
by fires in Allen. Property damage
can be reduced to an extent by
quick response times and well
trained firefighters. Fire loss can
vary widely from year to year. A
single fire in an office or residence
can easily create property loss in
excess of $100,000.

Employee Turnover
The City of Allen experienced 8.4%
turnover in FY2012. Turnover rates
are calculated for full-time
employees only due to the volatility
of the part-time Parks & Recreation
positions. These employees are
primarily students that come and go
as school schedules dictate, and are
not traditional part-time employees.

Harrassment and Discrimination Claims
The City has had a total of six Title VII related claims since 1997, which is a very low
rate. Title VII refers to a specific section of the Federal Civil Rights Act of 1964 that
addresses discrimination in the workplace. Title VII claims therefore are not related to
injuries, but instead are from issues such as sexual harassment or discrimination based
on race, ethnicity, sex, and other protected classes. A lack of claims indicates a positive
organizational culture combined with controls to prevent and resolve issues before they
turn into formal grievances.

Library
Department Introduction
"A welcoming place to inspire the mind," the Library stimulates imagination and
encourages a lifelong love for learning by providing books, audiobooks, videos, e -
books, and other materials within a fun and friendly environment of responsive customer
service. The Library offers a diverse calendar of cultural, historical, literary, and
educational programs to enrich the lives of Allen's residents and enhance the quality of
community life.
Visitation, Circulation, and Circulation Per Capita
Annual Visits, or total
number of library
patrons, is counted daily
by automated counters.
FY2012 was the busiest
year in the Library's
history in terms of
circulation, visitation, and
program attendance.
Although the number of
visitors is estimated to
increase very slightly for
FY2013, several factors
have had an impact on
visitation.
The primary factor is that
the Library's RFID
migration project
precluded normal

acquisition patterns for adding new materials during the first eight months of the fiscal
year. For public libraries, fewer new materials will typically result in fewer visitors. The
same trend was seen in FY2011 before, during, and after the Polaris migration.
During the RFID tagging, some of the collection was unavailable to the public during the
process. The second floor was closed to the public for nine days during the scheduled
carpet replacement in May. Normal traffic patterns were affected even after the second
floor reopened and did not resume until June. The Summer Reading Programs did not
begin until June 10 due to the unusually late last day of school for Allen ISD students.
City of Allen 294 FY2014 Budget
Annual Checkouts, the total number of library items checked out, is projected to
increase again as it has every year for at least 18 years (1996 is the earliest year for
which statistics are available from the Texas State Library and Archives Commission).
In FY2012, circulation surpassed 900,000 items for the first time. Although circulation
has been affected by the same factors as visitation, any increase over FY2012 would
set another new benchmark.
Circulation Per Capita, the total number of checkouts divided by total population, has
increased each year since FY2007 and is anticipated to increase again. Library staff
continues to encourage library usage through a welcoming environment, exceptional
customer service, patron -oriented collection development practices, and internal and
external marketing. The Library plans additional marketing efforts and increased
outreach to schools and community groups in FY2014.
The Library's circulation per capita is projected higher than 10 again for FY2013 with
another increase anticipated for FY2014. Current Texas public library standards
consider 7.5 to be excellent.
Collection Per Capita and Turnover Rate
Volumes Per Capita, the
number of items in the
Library divided by the
City's population,
measures the quantity and
diversity of library materials
available to Allen citizens.
The City Council's goal is 2
volumes per capita. An
intermediate departmental
goal is to achieve a 1.5
ratio while continuing to
develop a vital, current,
relevant, and therefore
popular, collection.

The size has also been affected by a collection budget that, apart from a Collin County
grant used for e -books, has not increased since FY2009. Volumes per capita also
decreased in FY2013 due to the necessity to remove worn or outdated materials during
the RFID migration project when every item in the collection was examined and
considered. This weeding process eliminated the financial cost and staff time of re-
tagging and reprogramming materials that did not justify retention.

intermediate departmental
goal is to achieve a 1.5

The size has also been affected by a collection budget that, apart from a Collin County
grant used for e -books, has not increased since FY2009. Volumes per capita also
decreased in FY2013 due to the necessity to remove worn or outdated materials during
the RFID migration project when every item in the collection was examined and
considered. This weeding process eliminated the financial cost and staff time of re-
tagging and reprogramming materials that did not justify retention.

Collection Turnover Rate measures the average number of checkouts per year for each
item in the Library's collection. The Library's collection turnover rate has been greater
than 5 since FY2009. According to state accreditation standards, 2.5 or higher is
excellent.
Programs and Program Attendance
Library Programs include age-appropriate preschool storytimes; programs for
elementary children, pre -teens, and teens; outreach programs to schools, Scout, and
other community groups; classic movies; and book clubs as well as cultural, historical,
literary, educational, craft, and travel programs. Every summer, the Library conducts
summer reading
programs for children,

Reference Questions
Reference Questions measures the combined number of questions asked by library
patrons at the first floor information desk, children's desk, and second floor reference
desk. Inquiries include requests for information about books and authors, reading lists
and recommendations, Library materials and programs, consumer buying decisions,
job hunting and resume creation, community referrals, and details of City activities and
accomplishments.
of Allen 296 FY2014 Budget
The number peaked in
FY2010 as the staff
responded to a
substantial number of
patron requests for the
transfer of items to and
from the Plano Public
Library. FY2011
usage decreased
significantly following
Plano's decision to
separate its library
operations from
Allen's. Reference
questions increased in
FY2012 but have
shown a slight
decrease in FY2013
due to some of the same factors that impacted the circulation and visitation statistics.
Support Services Operations
The Library ensures that the collection remains current, relevant, and in good physical
condition. When worn or outdated materials are replaced, new and replacement
materials are made available as quickly as possible. New materials (including books,
audio books, and DVD's) must be entered into the Library's Polaris database by
Support Services staff, cataloged, processed for check out, and then checked in and
shelved by other staff. Streamlined workflow procedures have reduced processing time
to an average of six days with no increase in staffing.
In the Polaris system, the staff daily identifies and prioritizes newly arrived books and
other items that are already requested by patrons in addition to other materials
expected to be in high demand based on author, series, or subject. As a result, the
most popular additions are readied for checkout more quickly than other new items.

Parks and Recreation
Department Introduction
The City's parks, greenbelts, recreation, and tourism facilities are planned and maintained
under the supervision of the Parks and Recreation Department. All expenses and revenue
related to park maintenance, recreation, and the event center are located in the General Fund.
Revenue and expenses for Chase Oaks Golf Course and the Convention & Visitors Bureau
are located in separate Funds.
General Fund Cost Per Capita
General Fund cost per capita includes
all park and recreation related
operations, including administration,
park planning, and administration and
operation of the Allen Event Center.
In 2010 governmental accounting
standards changed. In order to meet
the new standards all expenses in the
Recreation Division that had
previously been captured and funded
by revenue in the former Special
Revenue Fund were rolled into the
General Fund. The revenue
associated with these expenses was
Cost per Capita
also rolled into the General Fund; however, that is not shown in this graph. Additionally, the
City assumed operational control of the Allen Event Center in June, 2010. In FY11 the Allen
Event Center officially became part of the Parks and Recreation Department Budget. It needs
to be noted that this had a dramatic positive effect on revenue as well. The change in ticket
services at the event center in FY11 from GetTix to Ticketmaster changed the way that ticket
revenue was distributed. Previously, ticket revenue went directly from GetTix to the
appropriate entity; however, now Ticketmaster sends all ticket revenue directly to the City
which must then in tum expense the payment to the teamlpromoter. Again the associated
revenue for this expense is not shown in this graph.
City of Allen 298 FY2014 Budget
General Fund Revenue and
Cost Recovery
As stated previously the
former Special Revenue
Fund was collapsed into the
general fund in FY10 and the
Allen Event Center was
added to the Parks and
Recreation Budget in FY11.
These years provide the
baseline for this new
performance measure. Using
FY11 and FY12 as the
benchmark, cost recovery for
all expenses in departments
25 and 26 is expected to rise
seven points to 53% for FY13
and is projected to rise an
additional point in FY14 up to
54%. Expenses used in
these calculations include
not only recreation and event based expenses, but all
administration, planning and maintenance expenses as well.
Park Acres
The ratio of park acres to population
has historically been a benchmark of
the adequacy of the park system for a
city's residents. However, numbers
from the ratio are not always
comparable between cities because
of variations in how open space and
greenbelts within each community are
treated in the ratio. Using developed

Cost Per Maintained Acre
Maintenance of parks and recreation
facilities has a large effect on the
aesthetic value of a city. For several
years, cost efficiency initiatives
allowed the department to maintain
Allen's award-winning park system at
high standards during difficult
economic times. Starting in FY12,
the cost per acre rate has been
falling. This was primarily due to
increased pricing competition on

City consolidated all utility and fuel expenses into one division which dramatically reduced
overall maintenance costs as tracked in the Parks and Recreation budget even though costs
increased is specific areas. Costs are expected to increase slightly in FY14.
Membership Sales
Along with classes,
facility membership
sales are important to
the financial success of
the facilities. Each
facility sells a variety of
memberships. Those
memberships sold at
Don Rodenbaugh
Natatorium (DRN) are
valid at all locations,
while those sold at the
JFRC ASRC d th
an e
Visitor Center are specific to those facilities. The JFRC membership number also includes the
special membership charged for the Saturday Night Rec N Roll youth program.
JFRC, DRN, and the ASRC each participate in the Silver Sneakers program. This program is
a collaboration with healthcare providers to provide seniors (age 65 and older), as well as
persons with disabilities, the opportunity to utilize facilities and programs as a benefit of their
health insurance. The city is reimbursed by the healthcare provider for visits. The program is
tracked in the membership line item.
In FY09 the Youth Center transitioned into the Visitor Center. This continues to impact
membership sales downward as membership is no longer necessary to utilize the lobby space
of the facility. However, membership is still required for the use of the computer and media
rooms — both of which are still dedicated to youth use. In FY14, a complete analysis of the
Visitor Center will take place to determine future use of the center.

With the opening of new fitness facilities and swim clubs in Allen, DRN and JFRC
memberships have seen decline. Fitness equipment at ASRC has not been upgraded since
the facility opened in 2006 and was last updated at DRN and JFRC in 2007. Facility amenities
such as locker rooms and maintenance continue to be customer concerns as none of the
facilities have received any non-mechanical major upgrades since their openings.
Customer Satisfaction
The REAL philosophy is the Parks and Recreation Department's guiding customer service
program now in its fifth year of execution. All Parks and Recreation staff are introduced and
trained on the tailor made customer service model within the first months of employment, while
existing employees undergo regular training. Supervisory staff are all going through a
supervisor/manager training update in 2013 to ensure customer service practices and
expectations remain relevant. The Recreation Division uses a variety of surveys, comment
cards, trailer (follow up) phone calls, and various other means to measure satisfaction. The
benchmark goal for customer satisfaction has been set at 95%.

Program Registration
Program registration is
an indicator of a unique
individual or team
registering for a program,
activity, or league. The
numbers for program
registration also include
facility rentals for private
parties. While the
economy continues to be
a factor for discretionary
spending, program
registration is once again
trending upward. Learn
to Swim classes (DRN)
and youth camps (JFRC)
continue to be popular choices. Fitness related programs followed by outings at ASRC are
among top choices for seniors. Participation in programs at the Visitor Center continues to be
a challenge.
Class Success Rates
The success rate of classes is an indicator of how many programs and leagues are offered vs.
the number that were successfully held and not cancelled due to low enrollment or for other
reasons. This is a significant indicator as it relates to decisions being made about which
programs to maintain. The 75% goal is aligned to the industry standard.

Allen Event Center Attendance
& Event Days
The Allen Event Center opened
in November 2009 with the City
assuming operational control in
June, 2010. The event center
officially became a division of the
Parks and Recreation
Department at the start of FY11.
It is worth noting that even
though the total number of event
days for FY12 was lower than
FY11, actual attendance for
FY12 increased by over 35,000.
This shows that the quality of the
events is more important than
the quantity of the events.
Attendance 8 Event Days
Having said this, it is important to note that a shift has been made in concert booking decision
process. Previously, the goal was to book one concert per month. Unfortunately funding
levels did not (and do not now) allow staff to be able to book major/current talent at the rate of
12 concerts per year. The acts that were able to be booked were not able to generate
sufficient ticket sales to meet revenue requirements. Staff is now focusing on booking only
one concert per quarter which allows resources to be concentrated on only 4 events thereby
allowing the booking of bigger acts which are generating more ticket sales.

Golf Course Fund
Department Introduction
The City of Allen purchased the golf course in October 2004. The Golf Division operates
under a separate golf fund and is charged with balancing revenue and expenses each year.
The course was closed for renovation in FY12 and reopened as The Courses at Watters
Creek on January 12, 2013.
Rounds Produced and
Cost per Maintained Acre
The golf course was closed for
renovation during FY12, and
was originally scheduled and
budgeted to reopen on
November 1, 2012. Due to
the turf needing an extended
grow -in period and on-going
building and grounds
improvements, the opening
was pushed back to January,
2013 which had a negative
impact on the number of
rounds. Cost per acre is anticipated to show an increase in the coming years due to the
increase in acreage being maintained at higher levels.
Revenue per Golfer
Revenue per golfer is calculated
as the sum total of all sales from

Police Department
Department Introduction
The Police Department's mission is to prevent crimes and to enforce local, state and federal
laws and to provide for the safety of people and protection of property in the community. The
department is comprised of the Office of the Chief of Police and three divisions: Patrol Services,
Criminal Investigations and Support Services. The Police Department maintains several
specialized units such as Community Relations, School Resource Officers, SWAT, K-9, Traffic,
9-1-1 Communications, Internal Affairs, and is also responsible for animal control services and
operation of the animal shelter.
Crime Rates
Each year, cities and police departments throughout the country calculate, examine and make
necessary changes in reporting the previous year's crime rate statistics. Generally, crime
trends in America are based upon two factors:
• Crime Volume —the aggregate sum of the Crime Index; and
• Crime Rates — the rate at which crimes are expressed as a number per 1,000 residents.
This figure compensates for the changes in population.
All projections for 2013 are based on prior call history, projections made by the department and
other factors.
PART I CRIMES (Malor Crimes)
In the 2012 calendar year, the Allen Police Department experienced a decrease in Part I crimes.
Part I crimes are those serious offenses which include Murder, Rape, Aggravated Assault,
Robbery, Arson, Burglary, Larceny -Theft and Motor Vehicle Theft. Part II crimes generally refer
to those crimes that include, but are not necessarily limited to Forgery, Fraud, Stolen Property,
Criminal Mischief, Liquor Law violations and Weapons offenses.

2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 Projected
The City of Allen experienced an overall decrease of approximately 8.8% in the Uniform Crime
Index -defined Part I crimes as compared to 2011. The decrease is based upon raw number
comparisons. Many of the Part I offenses are considered "crimes of passion" or heat of the
moment type incidents, and there are truly no predictability factors available to help reduce or
prevent their occurrence. The department also calculates crime rates that factor in the increase
in population growth. When population growth (crimes per 1,000 residents) is factored in, the
decrease in Part I crimes is 12.1%. In 2011, there were 24.65 Part I crimes reported per
1,000 residents. In 2012, that number decreased to 21.97 per 1,000 residents.
City of Allen 305 FY2014 Budget
Based on UCR Part I crime (major crimes) statistics from January 1 through June 30, 2013 Part
I incidents are expected to decrease.
PART II CRIMES (Minor Crimes)
The Department experienced an increase in the number of Part II crimes reported in 2012 over
2011. An overall raw -data comparison indicates an increase of 4% over 2011. When population
growth is factored in, as described in the Part I crimes section, there was a 2.4% increase in
2012 Part II crimes per 1,000 residents when compared to 2011. Many of these offenses can
be attributed to stolen property -type offenses occurring within the many residential subdivisions
now being developed throughout our community. The department continues to see high
numbers of reported thefts and other associated property crimes. In 2012, there were 29.72 Part
II crimes reported per 1,000 residents as compared to 29.02 in 2011.
To proactively address the Part II increases in crimes, the department has created a small
speciailized unit consisting a two officers. Their mission is identify certain crimes and patterns
and to actively work to reduce the frequency of these crimes (and related crimes) through
proactive measures and enforcement / investigative efforts. The department has already seen a
drop in certain crimes in the first six months of 2013 as a result of their efforts.

Traffic
As the City and surrounding areas continue to grow, the police department will continue to
experience growth in the traffic volume. In 2012, the number of minor (non -injury) accidents
increased 4.4%, and the number of major (injury) accidents decreased 11.6% over 2011.
Additionally, the number of fatality accidents in 2012 remained constant. In both 2011 and 2012
there were two persons killed as the result of motor vehicle accidents. It should be noted that the
department did not renew a year-round traffic enforcement grant in FY 2012 and 2013 due to
budgetary constraints, but did apply for a FY 2014 grant. The police department also had several
technology projects (CAD / RMS) implemented over the past fiscal year that impacted our
prevention and enforcement efforts.

In November 2011, the Allen Police Department made several changes to how calls for police
services were entered in to the dispatching system or handled by officers. Calls for service
were no longer entered (did not receive a call for service number) for most special watches,
fingerprint calls, prisoner releases/visitations/checks or property releases. In April 2012,
broadcasts calls were no longer entered as calls for service. This information is now
disseminated through the CAD BOLO feature. This change provides a more accurate number of
calls for service for that the department. To provide for a standardized representation of
historical CFS data, 2010 and 2011 CFS numbers were updated.
The Allen Police Department continues its proactive approach to crime prevention and
Community Oriented Policing. In 2012, the department conducted more than 120,000 Directed
Patrols and 18,000 Park & Walks. Additionally, volunteer programs such as the Citizens on
Patrol, Citizens Police Academy and Volunteers in Policing programs donated more than 10,000
hours of time to the department. This translates into a savings of thousands of dollars and
supports our Community Oriented Policing philosophies.
