Impact analysis
About $1.2 million a year in recurring revenue needs to be replaced, on top of $1.7 million in one-time fund balance use.
Any successful replacement strategy protects city services and avoids deeper cuts.
Without replacement, residents may face service reductions or new fees and assessments.
