<br />
<br />Franchise Taxes are estimated to be higher than originally projected. This variance is caused by higher
<br />electrical use throughout the City
<br />
<br />Industrial Payments are higher than projected because plant expansions exceeded expectations.
<br />
<br />Building Permits greatly exceeded our expectations which resulted in the Licenses & Permits category being
<br />over projection.
<br />
<br />The increase in the Fines & Forfeits is attributed to increased activity in the Police Department and Code
<br />Enforcement. More tickets and cases came through the Municipal Court than originally projected.
<br />
<br />The shortfall in the Parks & Recreation Category is the result of the Wave Pool being closed most of the
<br />summer.
