The budget for 1944 had been built up in greater detail than had previously been done, with the result that estimates made for detail sections were in some instances short or long. However, the sectional totals of the functional features of each division were very closely estimated as the actual figures of revenue and expenditure given for the year will reveal. 62 REVENUES L It was estimated that the total of all revenues for 1944 would be $4,244,735.50. That this was a conservative estimate at the time was indicated by the power pool electric energy sales being intentionally omitted. The total of revenues from all sources for 1944 will undoubtedly reach $4,500,000., which is $339,000 more than estimated. This can easily be accounted for. First, 92.5% of current taxes being collected, the highest re- cord of tax collections for previous years, which accounts for about $32,700 more than estimated; second, the sale of $91,100 of electric power to the pool; third, the sale of excess lands (Lamar Blvd.) previously acquired by the City netting approximately $60,000; fourth, a Federal grant of $27,450. for additional dormitory capacity of Nurses' Home; fifth, $139,000 more in electric and water sales in the city, etc. The total of revenues from all sources is estimated at $4,429,437.89 for the year of 1945. This is approximately $155,000 less than for 1944. It is now definitely known that no electric energy will be furnished to the power pool, no major property sales, etc. It is interesting to note the sources of these revenues, exclusive of school tax collection: General Fund ad valorem taxes Interest & Sinking Fund ad valorem taxes - - General Fund other sources Water, Light & Power Fund - - - $669,600.00 15.1 549,839.00 12.4 662,828.89 15.0 2.547.170.00 57.5 $4,429,437.89 100.0% It is estimated that approximately $19,000.00 less from ad valorem tax collections, general fund and interest and sinking fund, will be available for 1945. This is due to estimated tax collection of 91% of current roll as compared to 92.58% for 1944. Page I 63 CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS Page II Other Local Taxes, Licenses & Permits, Fines & Penalties show a normal anticipated increase for 1945. Rents & Concessions should reflect an increase of approximately $1,550.00, due to purchase of old Nalle property on East Sixth Street. There is a decrease of approximately $40,000.00 in the Other Agency fund, due to less Federal Government aid in the nursing education program and no further construction grants. It is reasonably anticipated that street paving will be increased for 1945, because of the increased participation of property owners of $29,000.00. This amount is reflected in the Street and Bridge Fund. An increase of $5,500.00 over earnings of 1944 is estimated in the Abattoir, thus reaching a new high of $110,800.00 for that enterprise. Brackenridge Hospital has shown a substantial gain in earnings for 1944, and it is reasonably expected that this will continue for 1945 with an estimated gross earning of $198,000.00. It is estimated that the revenues from the Utilities will not quite reach the earnings of 1944, but should be approximately $2,547,100., which is only $35,500.00 less than the previous year. The reason for this, as has already been mentioned, is that no power sales are contemplated to the power pool (approximately $100,000.00 in 1944.) EXPENDITURES - i.e., Operating expenses for the six divisions of the General Fund General Government, Public Safety, Engineering & Public Works, Public Health and Welfare (Hospital & Abattoir), Recreation, and Libraries- indicate an increase of approximately $159,000.00, about 7.5% over that of 1944. An increase of $7,000.00 is estimated in Public Safety, due to anticipated addition of personnel. The Engineering and Public Works division show the greatest increase of request, the amount being $99,500.00. Of this, $15,000.00 is for personnel needed in the Engineer's Office, primarily draftsmen, that have not been available. The result has been an office operating considerably understaffed as compared to pre-war conditions. However, the major increase of $54,000.00 is in the Street & Bridge. Many of our old paved streets need a new topping of asphalt. The original surface topping is worn thin and is generally disintegrating after 25 to 35 years of use. It is not contemplated that all such streets can be cared for in 1945, but a maintenance program should be carried on each year. It is estimated that $60,715.00 will be expended in the coming year. Other items showing increases are in maintenance of unpaved streets, drainage structures, street and alley cleaning, garbage collection, and maintenance of parks. 63 64 CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS Page III An increase of $49,967.15 is anticipated in the Public Health & Welfare Division, which also includes Brackenridge Hospital and the Abattoir. Health administration indicates an increase of $9,070.00, due to additional food handling inspection and typhus control. Brackenridge Hospital operating expense will increase about $31,000.00. The greater part of this increase will be for additional nursing personnel necessary to care for the increased patient load and the general understaffed conaition of our nursing personnel. The demands of the Armed Services for nurses has made it increasingly difficult to secure an adequate staff. The student nursing program has been accelerated with some financial assistance from the Federal Government to meet this condition. The training period is for 30 months. Approximately 100 students were in training during 1944. This number will be increased to 130 in 1945. An increase of $7,700.00 is expected in the Promotion of Public Welfare, due principally to adjustments in personnel, and a grant from True Story Magazine of $5,500.00 for community research and education. The Abattoir operating costs will increase approximately $4,000.00 in 1945 with the anticipated increase in killing of cattle and hogs. Full Government inspection of all meats processed in the Abattoir is now in the offing. This may entail some slight additional cost that cannot at this time be determined, The Operation and Maintenance expense of the Water, Light & Power and Sewer Division will likely increase $64,500.00 for 1945, due to increased demands for water and electricity. The major part of this increase is due to making a substantial purchase of power from the Lower Colorado River Authority, in accordance with contract agreement of approximately $110,000.00. With the furnishing of electric power to the pool in 1944, only $43,000.00 of power was purchased. CAPITAL EXPENDITURES In the program of capital expenditures to be made in 1945, it is well recognized that the war is the one controlling factor. If hostilities in Europe should end by the spring of 1945, some materials will be made available for civilian use. In view of these possibilities, a capital expenditure program, totaling $564,363.00 in the General Fund and $908,402.00 in the Water, Light & Power Division, has been set up for essential needs. Land General Fund Capital Expenditures 1945 Improvements to grounds Buildings Bridges Culverts & Storm Sewers Curbs & Gutters $287,350.00 28,875.00 43,270.00 10,000.00 45,000.00 Paved Streets Street Markers Motored Equipment Office Equipment Books Other Equipment 7,500.00 44,599.00 1,300.00 60,405.00 6,639.00 250.00 29,175.00 $564,363.00 64 65 CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS Page IV In the land estimate indicated above, $100,000.00 has been set up for acquisition of St. Johns and Click properties. The remaining $187,350.00 is set up for the purchase of right-of-way for major street paving projects; three of which have been agreed and contracts made with the State Highway Department, i.e., Lamar Boulevard, East Avenue, and East 7th Street extension. Windsor Road widening from the Missouri Pacific Railroad tracks to Exposition is also set up for 1945, There are four principal projects involved in appropriations for improvement to grounds, i.e., (1) Oakwood Cemetery and Annex Fence Paving Water Lines (2) Stacy Park - Enlarging soft ball field, etc. (3) Athletic Club-Concrete slab (replace tennis courts) (4) Incinerator - Paving roadways $16,100.00 3,000.00 1,600.00 3,500.00 2,500.00 1,000.00 Four building projects are set up for 1945, consisting of the following: 65 Central Fire Station Enlargement Airport Administration Addition Rosewood Park Care-taker House Abattoir Cooler Storage Addition Miscellaneous $ 4,500.00 8,500.00 2,500.00 25,000.00 2,770.00 $43,270.00 Only one bridge project is contemplated for 1945 at 45th and Waller Streets at an estimated cost of $10,000.00. Several culverts and storm sewers which are sorely needed and have been long delayed aré included in the new year's program, i.e., Leona Street culvert, Branch Street culvert, Waterson culvert, Dancy Street storm sewer, Rio Grande and West Fourth Street storm sewer, and Kinney Avenue storm sewer. These projects will aggregate a total cost of $45,000.00. Very little street paving has been done for the past few years, due to inability to get asphalt. However, the Government has seen fit to release this material so that paving can be laid. A total of $44,599.00 of street paving construction is therefore set up. Estimates and agreements with property owners have been made for the following streets: - 1 43rd Street Guadalupe to Duval Brackenridge Annie to Leland San Antonio - 1st to 2nd Streets Bouddin - Monroe to Annie Dancy - Manor Road to 31st Johanna - Congress Avenue to Black Longview 22 to 24th Ramsey Avenue - 41st to 43rd Colorado Street alley - 13th to 14th Brackenridge - Annie to Milton Lake Austin Blvd. - Arlington to Deep Eddy Bouldin Monroe to Elizabeth - Euclid Live Oak to Oltorf Kennelwood Road Rockmor to Scenic Drive - West 13th Street San Antonio to Nueces Christopher - Bouldin to South 3rd Ramsey 43rd to 46th Avenue B43rd to 44th : 66 CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS Page V The next major expenditure is for motored equipment - trucks, cars, etc. Much of the City equipment is worn out, repairs are becoming increasingly difficult and several pieces of equipment cannot be used as repair parts are not available. Only the most essential and needed equipment is requested for 1945, if and when it becomes available. It is hoped that Government surpluses of such equipment will be made available to Municipalities. Principle needs are 6 to 8 cars in the Police Department, 1 fire truck, 2 station wagons, 2-3½ ton trucks for trash and garbage collection, 3-5 ton trucks for street and bridge maintenance and construction work, as well as 1 motor grader, 1-8 ton roller, 1 Crawler tractor, 1 motor sweeper. Also needed are 2 dump trucks, 4 pick-up trucks and 1-2½ ton line truck for the utilities. In addition to motored equipment, there is sore need for other equipment, i.e., lawn or grass gang mowers, refrigerating equipment, pumps, sheeps foot roller, firehose, etc. These needs for other equipment will aggregate approximately $29,175.00. : UTILITIES - CAPITAL EXPENDITURES, 1945 As it has been previously stated, if hostilities in Europe should end by spring of 1945, materials will be made available for civilian use. The most urgent needs in the utilities are as follows; first, immediate expansion of the water purification plant; second, immediate addition to sewage disposal plant; and third, relieving electric feeder lines now badly overloaded in the residential as well as in the business area. It is estimated that the construction of two-treatment units of ten million gallons per day capacity, filter beds, clear well, recarbonization, and additional head house, necessary to meet the increased water demand, will approximate $305,000.00. It is readily seen that this enlargement to the water plant cannot be made available and ready for the summer water requirements of 1945, but this work must be completed before the spring of 1946. The Ridgetop water distribution area must be provided with booster pressure pumps and overhead tank so that the water consumers can get water at all times. The estimated cost of this project is $38,350.00. It is proposed to reinforce water lines in northwest area of city by extending 12" main on Jefferson Street from 32nd to 39 Streets at an estimated cost of $12,000.00. Other miscellaneous extensions to serve new customers, and to relieve low pressure areas, are estimated at $35,000.00. As was mentioned above, additional capacity must be provided at the sewage disposal plant. The maximum rate of flow to the plant is now at the ultimate capacity of the plant. Additional settling and aeration tanks, etc. must be provided. It is estimated that this expansion will cost $162,000.00. An additional $48,000.00 is provided for sewer line extensions into areas now without such sanitary facilities. 66 : 67 CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS Page VI The electric distribution system is heavily overloaded, and relief must be given. Four needed projects have been set up, one of which is even now underway. These projects are listed as follows: (1) Dancy Substation is of 2000 KVA capacity to relieve the north substation and the east substation, estimated to cost approximately $12,735. (2) West Substation is of 2000 KVA capacity to relieve conditions in the north-west section, principally the north and Plant substations, estimated to cost $48,245.00. (3) Business-area (Circuit #2353) consists of a third underground feeder into the commercial area. This must be done to relieve a badly overloaded condition on the present two underground feeders now serving this area. This project is estimated at $67,030.00. (4) Rural lines must be extended in the 10-mile area to serve customers that have been held off for three years. Estimated cost of such extensions is $17,615.00. '. (5) Other regular and miscellaneous extensions to serve new customers and to relieve overloaded conditions, provide essential street lights, etc. are estimated at $101,245.00. INTEREST & SINKING FUND The total bonded indebtedness of the City of Austin on January 2nd, 1945, will be $5,342,000.00. An additional $358,500.00 will be deducted from the principal during 1945, thus reducing the bonded debt January 2, 1946, to $4,983,500.00. Approximagely $207,895.00 of interest will be paid during the year. The financial condition of the City of Austin is good.
