Notice of Public Hearings
Purpose: The City of St. George, Utah will hold public hearings to review and take public comment regarding the proposed fiscal year 2026-2027 budget and transfers from Enterprise (Business-type) Funds to Other Funds.
Public Hearing: Thursday, June 18, 2026 at 5:00 pm. St. George City Hall, 61 S Main St., St. George, UT 84770
Background: The City of St. George General Fund provides administrative and overhead services to the enterprise (business-type) funds. These services include human resources, legal, technology, fleet maintenance and other administrative services. The City calculates the estimated costs to provide these services to the enterprise funds; and each enterprise fund transfers their proportionate share of the costs to the General Fund. If these functions were not provided by the General Fund, the enterprise funds would need to hire additional employees and pay the direct personnel, materials and supplies, and equipment costs and/or hire consultants and pay their fees. City Management believes the amount transferred to the General Fund is less than the value of the services received and/or the amount which would be billed by a third party.
The enterprise funds also participate in capital projects and equipment purchases with other funds. The total project costs are expensed in the other funds and each enterprise fund transfers their proportionate share of the costs. Combining with the other funds, the City is saving costs by combining like projects with the different funds. For fiscal year 2026-2027, the transfers are budgeted as follows:
