<br /> Planning Reimbursable expenses include studies which are paid for by developers. Both revenue
<br /> and expenditures were budgeted for $100,000 in 1995-96, but little revenue was received and no
<br /> expenses incurred. Contract services reflects the largest variance ($262,000). Often this occurs
<br /> when there are personnel vacancies which are temporarily backfilled by contracting work out
<br /> (such as in the General Services and Public Works Departments). Thus some of the personnel
<br /> savings shown in a previous chart are offset here in the contract services category.
