OBJECTIVE 1: Identify and appropriate source of additional revenue and have it in place by October 1, 2004.

           Action Plan:

           A.       Assuming the county law enforcement sales tax passes on May 13, 2003, work with Sheriff Whetsel and his personnel to identify all law enforcement expenditures, currently being funded by County General Fund, that could and should be reimbursed to General Fund from sales tax revenues.

           B.       If the May 13 issue fails, work through the BOCC to formulate a revised sales tax issue, to take to the people, for the support of county government.

OBJECTIVE 2: Establish statutory authority for a reserve fund.

           Action Plan:

                      Work with the Oklahoma County state legislative delegation during the 2004 legislative session to pass a law that would allow Oklahoma County to legally reserve funds for future financial crisis.

OBJECTIVE 3: Maximize use of special funds thus freeing up general fund monies.

           Action Plan:

                      During the 2003-04 budgeting cycle, each county official and department will be requested to identify all general fund expenses that might be funded from their internal special fund balances and income.

OBJECTIVE 4: Increase lease revenues by better utilizing County property floor space.

           Action Plan:

           A.       By July 1, 2003, survey all floor space in Investor's Capital to determine if any space currently being used by county functions (primarily for storage) could be made available for lease to the public.

           B.       Develop a plan by October 1, 2003 for the timely and proper disposal of surplus county property (via sales of disposal).

OBJECTIVE 5: Maximize cost savings for Oklahoma County.

           Action Plan:

                      Each Oklahoma County elected official will prepare annually a zero-based budget, as will the departments that answer to the Board of County Commissioners.
