Fiscal Year 2017-2018

 

Financial Resources

 

The Columbia Gateway Urban Renewal Agency financial resources consist of Beginning Working Capital, Revenues, and Other Financing Sources. The FY 2017-2018 beginning balance of the combined funds is $2,272,171. Revenues consist of property taxes and interest income, and the combined total is $1,532,681. Other resources include sale of surplus property ($365,000), loan principal payments ($329,701) and loan interest payments ($19,729).

 

The property taxes are to be first received in the Debt Service Fund as required by the bond document. If there are revenues from property taxes remaining after debt service requirements have been met, then and only then are the remaining monies received in the Capital Projects Fund. We are anticipating this will happen in the budget for FY 2017-2018.

Mission:

By and through the Cooperation Agreement with the City of The Dalles, the primary mission of the Urban Renewal Agency Capital Project Fund is the enhancement of public and private properties, increasing the likelihood of investments in the City, and increasing property values in the District.

Description:

The requirement of the Urban Renewal Agency is the creation of accounting funds being collected and the dispensing of monies covering the operation of the Agency.
