LaVista Park Financial Impact

City of Brookhaven advanced $300,000 to the annexation tax district to address immediate start-up costs on March 10, 2020 (Ordinance ORD 2020-03-04), and appropriated an additional $100,000 to the fund on July 28, 2020 (Ordinance ORD 2020-03-04). This amount will be repaid to the General Fund once there are actual property tax collections in the annexation tax district.  

Expenses incurred in 2020 are initial efforts to bring the annexed area up to Brookhaven City standards, and generally fall under the functions of Public Works, Public Safety, and Recreation.  Below is a list of expenses incurred or expected this year.
