$13.1 million. Sales tax collections in the General Fund are estimated to come in over budget by
approximately $571,000 or 4.4%, due to higher than anticipated construction activity and retail
collections across several business activities and industry groups.
License and Permit revenues are estimated to come in over budget by approximately $478,000 or
32.0%, due primarily to higher than anticipated residential and commercial building permit fees, as

or 11.9%, due primarily to zoning & subdivision fees, Aquatic Center revenue, and grading review
fees.

observed actuals through April.
Staff will continue to monitor revenue collections and may adjust the year-end estimates based on actual

and are expected to come in over budget by $68,116 or 2.7%, based on observed actuals through
April.

estimates and are subject to change.

Bed tax revenues total $817,281 or 103.6% of the budget amount of $789,000 and are expected to
come in over budget by $186,454 or 23.6%, based on observed collections through April.

2.SEXUAL HARASSMENT
A. SEXUAL HARASSMENT CONSTITUTES DISCRIMINATION AND IS
ILLEGAL UNDER FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL LAWS. SEXUAL
HARASSMENT IS DEFINED AS ANY UNWELCOME SEXUAL ADVANCE,
REQUEST FOR SEXUAL FAVORS OR VERBAL OR PHYSICAL CONDUCT
OF A SEXUAL NATURE WHEN:
I. SUBMISSION TO OR REJECTION OF SUCH CONDUCT IS MADE
EITHER EXPLICITLY OR IMPLICITLY A TERM OR CONDITION OF

C. SEXUAL HARASSMENT DOES NOT REFER TO BEHAVIOR OR
OCCASIONAL COMPLIMENTS OF A SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE NATURE.

LINKED TO COMPLIANCE WITH SEXUAL ADVANCES. THEREFORE,
ONLY SOMEONE IN A SUPERVISORY CAPACITY (WITH THE
AUTHORITY TO GRANT SUCH BENEFITS) CAN ENGAGE IN QUID

AN EMPLOYEE A RAISE IF SHE GOES ON A DATE WITH HIM; A
MANAGER TELLING AN EMPLOYEE SHE WILL FIRE HIM IF HE
DOES NOT HAVE SEX WITH HER.
II. “A HOSTILE WORK ENVIRONMENT” IS WHERE THE HARASSMENT
CREATES AN OFFENSIVE AND UNPLEASANT WORKING
ENVIRONMENT. HOSTILE WORK ENVIRONMENT CAN BE
