Benefit to Community
There was a community workshop held on May 24, 2023 where many residents indicated they were interested in more
multi-modal infrastructure. At this workshop, the residents expressed their concerns regarding the safety of the Ferry Road
and Hollywood Boulevard intersection. The area has a high crash history showing serious injuries. City Council provided their
support on October 24, 2023. A traffic study was performed, and the data showed the existing four lanes of Hollywood
Boulevard provide more vehicular capacity than necessary during peak travel hours. Residents suggested the extra space be
used for multi-modal transportation improvement. The study showed 71% of the crashes at the intersection of Ferry and
Hollywood were left-turn and angle crashes, eliminated by a roundabout. The addition of multi-modal infrastructure will
allow for pedestrian-friendly improvements. The placement of a roundabout at the Ferry and Hollywood intersection would
allow for a safer environment.

Description
The project constructs new and infill sidewalks for the purpose of providing a pedestrian transportation network throughout the entire
city that will link the residential neighborhoods to each other and to public, recreational and commercial land uses. The City has
categorized sidewalks into two distinct areas: high-need areas around schools and residential areas outside those areas routinely traveled
by school children. The project's local objective is to install sidewalks on at least one side of all local residential streets and on both sides
of all collector and arterial roadways.

Benefit to Community
Sidewalks will benefit the community by providing a safe mode of transportation for pedestrians. Encouraging the
separation of pedestrian traffic and vehicular traffic as much as possible. Areas near schools have been prioritized and those
surrounding areas that are routinely utilized by school children. Sidewalks will link the residential neighborhoods to each
other, and to public, recreational, and commercial land uses.

Description
The city resurfaces a portion of roadways each year. Resurfacing is accomplished by conventional overlay or milling and resurfacing.
Overlaying a road surface required the use of compacted SP 9.5 asphalt to a depth of 1" to 1 1/2" over the existing surface. Milling and
resurfacing requires cutting the existing asphalt surface down and applying a new cost of asphalt on top. Preventative maintenance
prevents roadways from deteriorating to a point requiring more costly complete rehabilitation, and provides a safe, comfortable, and
aesthetically pleasing transportation network. The proposed locations will be Coral Drive SW from Memorial Parkway SW to Hollywood
Boulevard SW, Stafford Circle NE from Mooney Road NE to Cul-de-sac, Carlyle Court NE from Merioneth Drive NE to Cul-de-sac.
Merioneth Court NE, Fife Alley, Choctawhatchee Road SE from Elliot Road SE to Hollywood Boulevard NE, Homes Boulevard NW from

Type of Project Resurface Current Road
Benefit to Community
Street resurfacing provides a safe, smooth, comfortable, and aesthetically pleasing transportation network. Over time, aging
roadways can deteriorate. This can cause potholes and result in rough/bumpy rides. In extreme cases, it can even cause
vehicular damage. Resurfacing an aging and deteriorating road can minimize these issues.

Project Number TBD
Description
This remodel will include the upgrading of electronic hardware, such as computer monitors and server racks. It will also include the
implementation of hardware to move the communications center into a position to become a real-time crime center. This upgrade
comes as a result of the newly refreshed P24 state-wide radio center and will include an upgraded recording system for incoming calls to
the police department. Also, this request will be a capital improvement on the building as the projected cost includes the replacement of
flooring and furnishings within the communications center and the records division. This project would encompass the upgrade of the
City-Wide EOC which is housed within the Police Department training room. The upgrade would include interactive digital displays, to
allow real-time information transference to city personnel during natural disasters. Furthermore, this project would include the

Description
Replace substandard (both in size and material) water lines with new PVC or ductile iron mains for increased water flow and improved
fire protection. The substandard water mains consist of galvanized iron or cast iron and transite and over time these materials become
brittle and tuberculation reduces the amount of flow and pressure available to customers. Also, the tuberculation can cause discolored
water during times of fire hydrant flushing and water maintenance projects. The proposed area is Beachview Drive (Bradley Drive to
Patton Drive) and Cape Drive (Holmes Boulevard to Sullivan Street).

Type Capital Improvement
Project Number 5032
Description
The city has 110 miles of sewer lines, with a majority of the lines consisting of clay pipe. Clay and unlined cast iron pipes are susceptible to
root intrusion, offset joints and cracking due to the brittleness of the material. These problems allow a significant amount of inflow and
infiltration and debris into the wastewater system, which can eventually result in stop-ups and possible sanitary sewer overflows. Prior to
performing the rehabilitation, mains and manholes are inspected via closed-circuit television and monitored for leaks and other
problems. The rehabilitation techniques include cured-in-place pipe lining, epoxy-or urethane-based manhole lining, and chemical root
treatment.

the costs it incurred. Each parcel receiving benefit from the improvement is assessed for its proportionate share of the cost of
such improvements. The proportionate share may be paid in full or the property owner may request that the assessors
apportion the betterment over 20 years. Over the life of the betterment, one year’s apportionment along with one year’s
committed interest computed from October 1 to October 1 is added to the tax bill until the betterment has been paid.

by the community's legislative body to be removed from community's books.
Bond Issue: Generally, the sale of a certain number of bonds at one time by a governmental unit.
City of Fort Walton Beach | Budget Book 2025 Page 358
Bond Rating (Municipal): A credit rating assigned to a municipality to help investors assess the future ability, legal obligation,
and willingness of the municipality (bond issuer) to make timely debt service payments. Stated otherwise, a rating helps
prospective investors determine the level of risk associated with a given fixed-income investment. Rating agencies, such as
Moody's and Standard and Poors, use rating systems, which designate a letter or a combination of letters and numerals where
AAA is the highest rating and C1 is a very low rating.
Budget: A plan for allocating resources to support particular services, purposes and functions over a specified period of time.
(See Performance Budget, Program Budget)
Capital Assets: All real and tangible property used in the operation of government, which is not easily converted into cash, and
has an initial useful live extending beyond a single financial reporting period. Capital assets include land and land
improvements; infrastructure such as roads, bridges, water and sewer lines; easements; buildings and building improvements;
vehicles, machinery and equipment. Communities typically define capital assets in terms of a minimum useful life and a
minimum initial cost. (See Fixed Assets)
Capital Budget: An appropriation or spending plan that uses borrowing or direct outlay for capital or fixed asset
improvements. Among other information, a capital budget should identify the method of financing each recommended
expenditure, i.e., tax levy or rates, and identify those items that were not recommended. (See Capital Assets, Fixed Assets)

determine locally, within limitations established by statute and the Commissioner of Revenue, what percentage of the tax
burden is to be borne by each class of real property and by personal property owners.
Collective Bargaining: The process of negotiating workers' wages, hours, benefits, working conditions, etc., between an
employer and some or all of its employees, who are represented by a recognized labor union. regarding wages, hours and

assessed value, debt per capita, etc.). Sometimes debt burden refers to debt service costs as a percentage of the total annual
budget.
Debt Service: The repayment cost, usually stated in annual terms and based on an amortization schedule, of the principal and
interest on any particular bond issue.
Encumbrance: A reservation of funds to cover obligations arising from purchase orders, contracts, or salary commitments that
are chargeable to, but not yet paid from, a specific appropriation account.
Enterprise Funds: An enterprise fund is a separate accounting and financial reporting mechanism for municipal services for

total costs of a service that is recovered through user charges and the portion that is subsidized by the tax levy, if any. With an
enterprise fund, all costs of service delivery--direct, indirect, and capital costs—are identified. This allows the community to
recover total service costs through user fees if it chooses. Enterprise accounting also enables communities to reserve the
City of Fort Walton Beach | Budget Book 2025 Page 359
"surplus" or net assets unrestricted generated by the operation of the enterprise rather than closing it out to the general fund
at year-end. Services that may be treated as enterprises include, but are not limited to, water, sewer, hospital, and airport

Fixed Assets: Long-lived, assets such as buildings, equipment and land obtained or controlled as a result of past transactions
or circumstances.
Fixed Costs: Costs that are legally or contractually mandated such as retirement, FICA/Social Security, insurance, debt service
costs or interest on loans.
Float: The difference between the bank balance for a local government’s account and its book balance at the end of the day.
The primary factor creating float is clearing time on checks and deposits. Delays in receiving deposit and withdrawal
information also influence float.
Full Faith and Credit: A pledge of the general taxing powers for the payment of governmental obligations. Bonds carrying
such pledges are usually referred to as general obligation or full faith and credit bonds.
Fund: An accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts that are segregated for the purpose of carrying on identified
activities or attaining certain objectives in accordance with specific regulations, restrictions, or limitations.
Fund Accounting: Organizing financial records into multiple, segregated locations for money. A fund is a distinct entity within
the municipal government in which financial resources and activity (assets, liabilities, fund balances, revenues, and
expenditures) are accounted for independently in accordance with specific regulations, restrictions or limitations. Examples of
funds include the general fund and enterprise funds. Communities whose accounting records are organized according to the
Uniform Municipal Accounting System (UMAS) use multiple funds.
GASB 34: A major pronouncement of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board that establishes new criteria on the form
and content of governmental financial statements. GASB 34 requires a report on overall financial health, not just on individual
funds. It requires more complete information on the cost of delivering value estimates on public infrastructure assets, such as
bridges, road, sewers, etc. It also requires the presentation of a narrative statement the government's financial performance,
trends and prospects for the future.
GASB 45: This is another Governmental Accounting Standards Board major pronouncement that each public entity account
for and report other postemployment benefits in its accounting statements. Through actuarial analysis, municipalities must
identify the true costs of the OPEB earned by employees over their estimated years of actual service.

indirect cost of providing water service would be the value of time spent by non-water department employees processing

arises most often in the context of enterprise funds.

time. It is always expressed in annual terms.

the existing valuation system, the results of an in-depth sales ratio study, and the accuracy of existing property record
information.

Tax Title Foreclosure: The procedure initiated by a municipality to obtain legal title to real property already in tax title and on

established as an expendable trust. For nonexpendable trust funds, only interest (not principal) may be expended as directed.

exceed liabilities and restricted reserves. It is akin to a "stockholders’ equity" account on a corporate balance sheet. It is not,
however, available for appropriation in full because a portion of the assets listed as "accounts receivable" may be taxes
receivable and uncollected. (See Free Cash)
Valuation (100 Percent): The legal requirement that a community’s assessed value on property must reflect its market, or full
and fair cash value.
