[3:35] distributed. Uh reports and

[3:37] communications. Mayor Hardman.

[3:39] >> Uh nothing to to report this evening. Um

[3:43] I'll take any questions anybody has.

[3:46] Thanks.

[3:47] >> Thank you, safety service director, Mr.

[3:49] Lucas.

[3:50] >> I have nothing as well and there's no

[3:52] legislation up for a vote um unless

[3:54] Chief wants to talk about his disposal

[3:57] and I don't think he's here. So, um but

[4:01] that'll be discussed when uh they're up

[4:02] for the third reading.

[4:04] >> All right. Thank you. Uh I have no

[4:08] report this evening as well. Uh clerk of

[4:09] council, Miss Boohight.

[4:11] >> No report.

[4:12] >> You're honor roll. Auditor Mr.

[4:14] Cunningham.

[4:16] >> Well, I can't say I don't have a report,

[4:18] but it's going to be short. Um, since I

[4:21] don't have my papers with me. Um, going

[4:24] off of memory, which is tough because I

[4:25] don't remember much these days. Um,

[4:28] we're 58% through the year. Actually, I

[4:31] have it right here. We're uh we've spent

[4:33] about 53% of our budget, so we're on

[4:35] track there. Um, as far as our working

[4:38] cash goes, uh, we're hovering at a

[4:40] somewhat elevated level, which is, uh,

[4:43] very positive at this point. So, um,

[4:45] that's really my report. That's it.

[4:48] >> Right. Any questions for Mr. Cunningham?

[4:51] >> All right. Thank you, Treasure. Mr.

[4:52] Ireie.

[4:53] >> Thank you. Good evening. Uh, the tax

[4:55] report is on file with the clerk of the

[4:57] council and, uh, at July 31st, as uh,

[5:00] Mr. Cunningham indicated, we're 58% of

[5:03] the way through 2026. Uh, as shown in

[5:06] the tax report, the year-to- date uh

[5:09] receipts, total receipts for all of the

[5:11] city's funds actually exceed the

[5:12] expenses to date uh through the 31st of

[5:15] uh July by approximately 330,000.

[5:18] Uh the receipts for the uh income tax

[5:20] are up 6% over this time last year. Uh

[5:23] however, the motel tax is down 22%

[5:26] compared to this time last year. And

[5:27] that the reason for that is um uh that

[5:30] we're behind pace is has to do with the

[5:32] um the tax office moving uh to this

[5:36] location and the mail lag uh between the

[5:38] um when the u motel tax receipts come

[5:41] in. So we expect those to pick up in

[5:43] August and to catch up and be back on

[5:45] pace by the end of the month. That's my

[5:47] report.

[5:48] >> Right. Thank you. Any questions for Mr.

[5:49] Irie?

[5:51] >> All right. Thank you. Law director Mr.

[5:54] Liippard. Nothing formal to report. If

[5:56] anybody has any questions, I'm happy to

[5:58] try to answer them. Thank you.

[6:02] >> All right, seeing none, thank you.

[6:03] Finance Director Mr. McKon, I believe

[6:05] you have no report as well. Is that

[6:07] correct?

[6:08] >> All right.

[6:10] All I did was a cover.

[6:11] >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

[6:16] All right. Well, we uh we give a a

[6:18] multitude of information throughout the

[6:20] year with the monthly reports. Uh also

[6:23] we prepare our annual axer uh which we

[6:27] just wrapped up. So we'll talk a little

[6:28] bit about that. But um

[6:35] uh so we'll talk a little bit about some

[6:36] data from 2025 uh and then also some

[6:39] updates of what's been going on in 2026.

[6:42] um one of the biggest transitions in the

[6:44] department um uh with people and and and

[6:48] first of all a lot of thanks to the

[6:50] folks in in finance and in the finance

[6:52] and the tax division uh we couldn't

[6:55] accomplish what we do without the

[6:56] efforts they do. Um one of the biggest

[6:58] changes is after 11 years as a tax

[7:01] administrator um in February early March

[7:05] uh Linda Collins retired. Uh we were

[7:07] fortunate enough uh after her cooling

[7:09] off period, she's returned uh as

[7:11] part-time status uh helping out on a lot

[7:14] of projects

[7:15] um uh trying to play catch-up some areas

[7:18] where we've always wanted to attack and

[7:19] she provides a good perspective uh to

[7:22] dig in and get in on that. Um we were

[7:25] happy at that time uh in February to

[7:27] bring on Kari Nelson. He joined us uh

[7:29] with um over two decades of experience

[7:31] in the federal government uh with the

[7:33] EPA. uh no direct tax experience but a

[7:37] lot of transferable uh skills and has

[7:40] brought a lot of uh wonderful leadership qualities uh to help the

[7:45] group. So they've already been through a

[7:46] lot. They wrapped up kind of attack

[7:48] season during the change uh of

[7:50] management and and then also uh the

[7:53] great move uh over to the side of the

[7:56] tracks and and getting them back here

[7:58] into city hall. So, uh, we also just

[8:01] recently had a part-time a seasonal, uh,

[8:05] tax associate we kind of did for the

[8:06] first time. Um, we' had some temp help

[8:09] before, uh, but we put out, uh, an ad

[8:12] and we had a college student apply for

[8:14] that, uh, Luke, uh, Corson, uh, that

[8:16] went very successful through the summer.

[8:18] He helped us kind of dig out from all

[8:20] the paperwork that came in through tax day, uh, April 15th. Uh, and

[8:25] then also help assisted a lot with the

[8:27] move. Uh, we really like that program.

[8:29] we're going to kind of transition that

[8:30] to more of a dedicated internship and probably roll that forward like

[8:34] community development does. So, that was

[8:36] nice to have some youth around and uh

[8:38] share our knowledge and learn a little

[8:39] bit from them and uh accomplish some

[8:42] task. So,

[8:45] uh here's a roster of uh those in the

[8:48] department and uh how long they've been

[8:49] there. Uh longest uh Kathy Duckworth

[8:52] over in the finance side of the house

[8:53] and um Susan Ernst over in the tax

[8:56] division.

[8:59] Um

[9:01] so what have we been up to? Uh one of

[9:03] the biggest things um we just wrapped up

[9:05] here in July. We wrapped up our annual

[9:08] uh audit uh with the opinion for the uh

[9:11] the the ACT for the comprehensive

[9:13] financial report. Uh so we got that

[9:15] opinion there very late in July. We

[9:17] submitted it to GFOA uh for their

[9:20] certificate of excellence award. Uh in

[9:22] February we received our uh certificate

[9:25] on our 2024 audit. Um, so the city has

[9:29] received that every year since uh 2001.

[9:32] So, uh, as I said, the big, uh, the big

[9:35] thing we've been up to is is the move. A

[9:37] whole lot of thanks for the tax folks

[9:39] that suffered through that and and and

[9:41] also public works and it, they did a lot

[9:44] to to help us get set up over here. We could not have done that without

[9:47] them. So, uh, for sure. Uh, here's a

[9:51] look at what that space looked like uh,

[9:53] a year ago. Uh, is the new city hall.

[9:56] And uh here is uh what it looks like

[9:58] today. So uh we're still kind of getting

[10:00] a few things uh sorted out, but we

[10:02] really like the space. Uh super nice,

[10:05] bright, uh a lot of elbow room to uh to

[10:07] work in there.

[10:10] Um

[10:12] there was a lot of effort to clean out

[10:14] the old tax office. Uh it it had a

[10:16] basement unlike the Alamo. Uh and a lot

[10:19] of stuff had accumulated in the

[10:20] basement. a lot of stuff that kind of

[10:22] accelerated in 2019 when we cleared out

[10:24] of uh South City Hall here for the

[10:26] renovation of admin. Uh so there was a

[10:29] bunch of stuff over in the tax basement.

[10:31] So uh one thing we came across was a

[10:34] 1973 plan. I meant to have it with me uh

[10:36] this gray um uh binded report and it was

[10:40] a 1973 plan on downtown development

[10:43] which obviously here in the last year

[10:44] we've talked a lot of downtown

[10:46] development. So, uh, this 1973 document,

[10:49] uh, did a lot shaped a lot of things

[10:51] that are still downtown today. Um, the

[10:53] one-way traffic around the loop. Uh, it

[10:56] carved out and expanded a lot of the

[10:57] parking we see, uh, parallel to Reading

[10:59] Road, uh, behind the, uh, the retail

[11:02] there. And, uh, a lot of, not

[11:04] necessarily the streetscape that's at

[11:05] the square, but a lot of the other

[11:07] streetscape that's along Reading Road,

[11:09] uh, in needing of replacing right now,

[11:11] uh, kind of came out of this plan. So,

[11:14] here was a couple of the drawings from

[11:15] the plan. It appeared that one of the

[11:17] biggest goals were to uh attract people

[11:19] with broad tie, wide ties and oversized

[11:21] collars at the time. Uh it was kind of

[11:24] fascinating. It showed a lot of uh

[11:26] pictures of uh the street layout uh

[11:28] before the way two-way traffic and and the connection of how that worked. A

[11:32] lot of buildings that uh were demoed uh

[11:35] coming out of this plan and uh as they

[11:37] kind of uh routed that through there. So

[11:39] it was it was a very interesting

[11:41] document to come across at a very

[11:43] interesting time.

[11:46] Um, we've been up to a lot of training.

[11:47] We always try to do quite a bit of

[11:49] training. Uh, uh, with Ohio GFOA, uh, as

[11:52] I think I said last year, Luke and I

[11:53] just gotten back from speaking at the

[11:55] national GFOA conference. Um, uh, we

[11:58] like to send at least a couple of people

[11:59] up to the OML tax conference each year.

[12:02] Uh and then a lot of the finance

[12:05] frontline staff uh uh attended with a

[12:08] lot of other city staff uh Xavier um uh

[12:11] leadership and um customer service kind

[12:14] of training. So we were uh we were

[12:16] really happy with that. They they

[12:17] enjoyed that process.

[12:20] Um this graph uh just to get into a

[12:23] little bit of uh uh uh nitty-gritty

[12:25] finance uh info. Um and like I said,

[12:28] it's kind of some random uh pieces. We

[12:30] give out a lot of normal where we are on

[12:33] expenses and receipts. So, this is a

[12:35] little bit interesting. Uh tax refunds

[12:37] is a topic we've talked about the last

[12:39] several years. As you can kind of see,

[12:41] we ran hot hot hot here uh coming out of

[12:43] the pandemic uh for several years. Uh

[12:46] we've kind of settled in on a new norm

[12:48] and that uh 1.1 I think we will probably

[12:51] average right around this bubble here

[12:53] for a while. Uh and it's where tax

[12:55] collections themselves have kind of

[12:56] grown from where they were. Um next year

[12:59] we may actually over overlay this with a

[13:02] where the revenue is compared to the

[13:03] refunds. Uh uh we've done some

[13:05] interesting analysis is refunds is a

[13:08] portion a percentage of of that

[13:10] collections from the previous year. So

[13:13] um this this this is going well. Uh

[13:15] we've got that tax refunds account that

[13:17] we maintain in a much healthier position

[13:19] than we did a couple years ago when we

[13:21] started to have some concerns.

[13:24] Um

[13:28] uh as we have for the last several years

[13:30] in the last 11 years um budget has gone

[13:34] well very successful um in controlling

[13:36] expenses and and revenue coming in well

[13:39] uh so what we've been able to do is

[13:41] leverage that u with our fund balance

[13:43] plan that we do with GFOA and we've been

[13:45] able to make uh lots of set aides so uh

[13:48] last year we put $7.2 2 million towards

[13:50] capital. Uh a couple of other routine

[13:53] kind of maintenance uh set aides uh for

[13:55] future cost. So uh this has uh done

[13:59] quite well over the years.

[14:02] Um here is a little snapshot of what

[14:05] we've been able to do with some fire set

[14:06] aides uh which has helped them offset

[14:08] some future cost.

[14:12] Um and and and here is uh a graph we put

[14:16] in here kind of showing uh where a lot

[14:18] of the dollars have gone uh with all

[14:20] those set of sites we've made. We have

[14:22] uh built a lot of stuff. This table is

[14:25] net assets. So it's net of depreciation.

[14:27] So some stuff that we buy uh a vehicle

[14:30] or a piece of equipment. We're only

[14:31] advertising that over like a three to

[14:33] five year life. So we burn through that

[14:35] pretty quickly. Um things like building

[14:38] improvements uh some infrastructure.

[14:40] you're talking more of a 10 to 20 year

[14:42] life. Uh buildings are more like 50

[14:44] years. Um and then land lasts forever.

[14:48] So that just stays on there as cost. Uh

[14:50] and CIP is just stuff that we we're in

[14:52] the middle of building. So um this kind

[14:55] of did not see you could definitely see

[14:57] where we've had some major increases

[14:59] from 2015 to 2020 to now. Uh not a real

[15:03] great increase between 2024 2025. A lot

[15:06] of the money that we spent in 2025 is u

[15:09] this is just governmental type assets.

[15:12] Uh the other two big categories uh uh on

[15:14] our financial statements if you would

[15:16] pull up the the first page uh where we

[15:18] have assets is is in our business type

[15:20] activities the convention center and uh

[15:23] senior housing they're kind of off

[15:25] themselves in business type. Uh the

[15:27] other uh pocket that we put a lot of uh

[15:29] resources in is our CIC. The CIC is on

[15:32] our statements. It's incorporated in the

[15:34] statements. It is off to the side as

[15:36] kind of a standalone. It's it's

[15:38] discreetly presented as a as its own

[15:41] entity. So, it's not reflected on this

[15:43] table. It is on our statements and we

[15:46] did have a lot of money in the land

[15:47] banking we've done downtown that shows

[15:49] up there.

[15:53] Um, a few different uh snippets uh out

[15:56] of our comprehensive financial report.

[15:58] Uh, ones we like to show. Uh, this is

[16:00] one I always like to kind of look at

[16:02] physical health. uh kind of a little

[16:04] snapshot of where um income tax

[16:08] collections are now compared to where

[16:10] they were 10 years ago. Um a little bit

[16:13] of info of where it was the last few

[16:14] years. We've added to this uh and a

[16:17] little bit of color here as to what

[16:18] percentage our top 10 comes out. Uh this

[16:21] has seen some growth the last several

[16:22] years. There's been what we think from

[16:24] the outside seems like a lot of healthy

[16:26] growth inside of our top 10. It has been

[16:28] hard to dilute that uh recently. And um

[16:34] uh for a city with a large automobile

[16:37] manufacturer, we're still in a pretty

[16:39] good spot of of keeping that somewhat

[16:40] diluted in our economy as a whole.

[16:42] That's that's difficult to offset. So um

[16:45] this is in a pretty good place. Um we're

[16:48] very proud to date that we don't show up

[16:49] in our own list of top 10 employers. So

[16:52] you can't always control that and a lot

[16:53] of cities our size usually are.

[16:58] Um, this statement a little bit harder

[17:00] to read. Um, but this is one where uh

[17:04] and I'll send a digital copy of this out

[17:06] to everybody, but uh this is the one

[17:08] that back in my audit days a dozen years

[17:10] ago, I used to always like to start with

[17:12] to show people. Um, this is the one

[17:13] where you have the most impact. It is

[17:15] our budget verse actual. This original

[17:18] budget is what we approved and what you

[17:20] approved in December of 2024. The final

[17:23] budget is the accumulation of the

[17:25] amendments that we made during 2025.

[17:28] Uh so you can kind of flow through and

[17:30] see what we changed. This is only

[17:32] talking about the general fund. Um the

[17:35] actual column are the actual receipts

[17:36] and expenditures that flowed through the

[17:38] fund. Uh and then the uh variance is how

[17:41] the actual compares to the final budget.

[17:44] So uh an interesting document and one I

[17:46] think that you know this room is easiest

[17:49] to to relate to. Um, I could show you a

[17:52] balance sheet, but like it's so abstract

[17:54] that it's it's difficult to So, uh, this is the general fund. Um, a similar

[18:02] uh snapshot of this is the fire fund,

[18:05] one of our other major funds. We have a

[18:06] handful of major funds. These are

[18:08] probably our two biggest by far. Um, a

[18:10] lot less going on in the fire fund. It's

[18:12] just a sole purpose. Um, so here it

[18:15] goes. Uh, the same sort of comparisons

[18:18] go on there.

[18:21] Uh and then so uh what's coming up here

[18:24] the rest of 2026? Um we are quickly

[18:26] getting to work in the 2027 budget. Uh

[18:29] we hope to get packets out to elect it

[18:31] November 2nd, which the next uh eight

[18:34] weeks or so are very chaotic. So this

[18:36] will be it's a fun time. Uh and a budget

[18:38] work session uh is November the 12th.

[18:42] Uh and then uh here is a little bit of

[18:46] detail from from the tax report. um that that Kurt relates to and it kind of

[18:52] shows where income taxes are year to

[18:53] date. So um 2026 has rolled along uh

[18:57] rather decently.

[19:00] Any questions?

[19:06] Thank you very much. All right. Thank

[19:08] you.

[19:12] All right. At this time, are there any

[19:13] residents desiring to be heard before

[19:15] council this evening?

[19:20] Just come up to the podium. Please state

[19:22] your name. May address for the record.

[19:27] Hi. I feel very short. Hi, my name is

[19:29] Stephanie Lemming and I'm the branch

[19:31] manager at the Sharonville Branch

[19:32] Library over on Thorn View Drive. Um, I

[19:35] have a couple more numbers for you. Not

[19:37] that many, but a couple more. Um, as

[19:39] many of you know, summer reading is a

[19:41] big event for libraries countywide. And

[19:43] here at the Sharonville branch, we had

[19:45] over 800 kids and teeds participate. So,

[19:49] props to the Sharonville and neighboring

[19:51] um and neighbors um for coming to visit

[19:54] the library. And as much as my kids are

[19:57] bummed out, school is back in session.

[19:59] Um so that does mean our homework help

[20:01] service has restarted. So Monday,

[20:03] Tuesday, Wednesday from 6:00 to 9:00 and

[20:05] then Thursdays from 4:00 to 7:00, we do

[20:07] have free homework help. You don't have

[20:09] to sign up. You can come once. You can

[20:11] come every day. like there's no like

[20:14] registration or anything like that. So,

[20:16] kids can come for if they're just stuck

[20:18] on one assignment or if they're need

[20:20] help on a big project or if they just

[20:22] need someone to sit with them every day.

[20:24] Um we have a homework help aid and she

[20:26] is lovely. Um and even if you just want

[20:28] to come hang out, she'll play games with

[20:30] you and stuff like that if if it's a

[20:31] quieter time. So, um but yes, summer was

[20:34] awesome. School is back. Homework help

[20:37] is here. Um do you have any questions

[20:39] for the library while I'm here?

[20:42] No. Well, thank you all for your time

[20:45] and I hope to see you soon.

[20:47] >> Thank you.

[20:50] Anyone else?

[20:52] All right. Seeing none, council

[20:53] committee's budget and finance and

[20:54] project oversight. Mr. Cook,

[20:56] >> thank you. Uh, no report for budget and

[20:58] finance, but I was speaking with Mr.

[21:00] McKon. And we will have a budget and

[21:02] finance meeting sometime in October, and
