Narrative For the past few decades, in an effort to kept taxes and debt low, the city has diverted dollars from infrastructure investments and maintenance to services. We have been using up the capital we have in our infrastructure to mask the problems created by our low density and flat assessment growth.
Key Take-aways Despite Selkirk s strong financial assets, lower debt and low cost administration the city may not be financially sustainable in the long run. Selkirk s low debt expenses and lower level of taxation give the city a greater than average ability to respond to changing circumstances. Selkirk is tax and fee competitive with Steinbach, Winkler and Morden. Selkirk may be more dependent on other levels of government than other Manitoba cities.
Key Take-aways By all measures, Selkirk s capital infrastructure value is at or near the bottom of all Manitoba Cities. The value of Selkirk s capital infrastructure is at critically low levels and is a clear and present danger to the city s ongoing ability to operate and a drag on future growth and prosperity. The key drivers behind our infrastructure challenges have been low assessment growth and extremely low population density.
Key Considerations How do we address our infrastructure debt? How do we evolve the development and management of our community to change the impact of the key cost drivers: Increase overall density Broaden the tax base through growing assessment base Keep operating efficiently Establish accountability systems to keep public informed and the city on-track Close the annual infrastructure deficit
THE CITY OF SELKIRK Administrative Report To: Committee Of The Whole From: Chris Carruthers Interim Director of Economic & Community Development Development Date: January 15, 2013 RE: Transfer of Funds to Cover Deficit. Issue: To cover the deficit balance in the 2013 Canada Day account using funds from the Special Events Reserve. History: For the past few years sponsorship has been decreasing and operating costs have been increasing. In previous years when the Canada Day account has ended in a deficit balance, the funds have been transferred from the Special Events Reserve to cover the deficit. Alternatives: 1. That Council of the City of Selkirk authorize the transfer of funds from the Special Events Reserve to cover the deficit balance in the 2013 Canada Day event budget. 2. That Council of the City of Selkirk authorize the transfer of funds from the Economic and Community Development Special Events Operating Budget. Analysis: Due to rising costs and loss in sponsorship, the 2013 Canada Day account is currently sitting at a deficit balance of $1,363.04. In previous years when the Canada Day account has ended in a deficit balance, the funds were transferred from the Special Events Reserve account to cover the deficit. The Special Events Reserve currently has a balance of $33,166.16. Proposed Resolution: That Council of the City of Selkirk authorize the transfer of funds from the Special Events Reserve to cover the deficit balance in the 2013 Canada Day event budget.
THE CITY OF SELKIRK Administrative Report To: From: Committee of the Whole Chris Carruthers Interim Director Economic and Community Development Dale Scott Interim Director of Operations Date: January 15 th, 2014 RE: Road Snow Clearing Protocol - Selkirk Park FOR INFORMATION ONLY Due to a concern raised by a member of Council, staff was asked to follow-up with regard to the snow clearing of roads within Selkirk Park. The following represents the results of this work. HISTORY Snow clearing within Selkirk Park has been restricted over the years to specific roadways within the Park. This was due to an insurance claim the City lost a number of years ago. An issue raise in this case was the provision of access to the River by the City of Selkirk. The other rationale for the restricted road snow clearing is a reduction in the potential for damage to Summer Use Facilities ANALYSIS: Myself and Dennis Whall, in consultation with Dale Scott from operations, met down at Selkirk park to address the road snow clearing concerns identified recently. Public Works advises me that the road snow clearing within Selkirk park is a lower priority, meaning the Park Roads are cleared after all the inner-city roads and sidewalks are all cleared after each snowfall. Additionally, Public Works clears only the main road into the park towards the boat launch, the parking area for the boat launch and the road surrounding the slough. This provides access to Winter Recreation Activity Areas but does not provide direct access to the River or Summer Activity Areas. NOTE: Since the lawsuit, approximately 20-years ago, Public Works has not plough over the dike towards the river. They stop on the west side of the dike and blade it backwards to avoid creating any hills of snow at all. Thus, is the public wishes to venture out past that point onto the river they do so at their own risk. Should the members of Council wish to reconsider this change in service please advise.
