Dear Mayor and City Council: In accordance with the City Charter and the laws of the State of Texas governing home rule cities, please accept this letter as the budget transmittal and executive summary for the Fiscal Year 2019 annual budget. The budget is structurally balanced, meaning that reserves have not been used to balance the operating budget. It provides for all available resources and expenditures for the City and acts as the general financial and operating plan for the City of Forney.

INTRODUCTION As always, this budget was prepared with great diligence in allocating limited resources for the best benefit to the citizens of Forney. The budget is a balanced budget; however in order to present a fiscally responsible budget, some staff requests were either reduced or eliminated. This is not a reflection on the merit of these requests, but rather, it is indicative of the need to prioritize based on available resources, community need and Council direction.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION & FUND SUMMARIES

GENERAL FUND The General Fund is the City’s principle operating fund and is supported by taxes, fees, and other revenues that are not restricted to specific uses. This fund accounts for City functions such as police, fire, community development, parks, municipal court and administration.

General Fund Revenue Fiscal Year 2018 total General Fund revenue is expected to end the year 12.37% above the original budget. This is the result of increased permit and inspections collections.

% Change

7.87% 14.40% 5.55% 42.91% 0.00% 40.63% 3.42% 14.65% 10.82%

Total revenue for Fiscal Year 2019 is projected to be $19,071,878. This is an increase of 10.82% from the prior year’s budget. This increase is primarily due to increased property tax and sales tax revenues.

Significant increases are also expected in permit and inspections and interest revenues.

Taxable Valuation & Tax Rate

7

The total certified property valuations for Fiscal Year 2019 are $1,658,547,850. This is an increase of 13.94% or $202,893,855 in total valuation. Thirty percent of this increase, $87,054,485, can be attributed to new construction. The remainder is an increase in existing property valuation, which indicates a thriving community.

While valuations have increased by 60% since 2014, the total tax rate has decreased by $.127909. The increased valuations, along with sound debt management including early redemptions and refunding, has contributed to the decreased tax rate. However, increasing operating costs due to additional positions and increased salaries in Fiscal Year 2018 will require that the tax rate remain at $.621111 for Fiscal Year 2019.

While the debt service portion of the tax rate will be decreasing by 13.28%, the maintenance and operations portion will increase by 9.74% allowing the additional revenue to be used for operating cost. Further information on the changes in the tax rate, including adjustments for tax abatements and tax increment financing districts, can be found in the General Fund section of this document. Â Sales & Property Reduction Taxes Over the past five years, sales tax revenues have increased an average Sales Tax of 12% per year. This continued increase is indicative of a growing local 4,000,000.00 $3,791,154 $3,610,623 $3,610,623 3,500,000.00 economy, resulting from continued $3,166,927 3,000,000.00 population growth within the city limits $2,831,414 2,500,000.00 $2,586,466 and the surrounding areas, as well as $2,293,816 2,000,000.00 increased commercial development.

1,500,000.00 1,000,000.00 The city has always taken a very 500,000.00 conservative approach to budgeting sales tax. The Fiscal Year 2018 budget 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2018 2019 Actual Actual Actual Actual Budget Revised Budget assumed a 7% increase in sales tax revenue and actual collections ended the year above 11%. For Fiscal Year 2019, an increase of 5% from the current year end estimate is proposed.

Permits & Inspections This revenue category as a whole is expected to end the year at approximately 158% above the original budget. While nearly all of the individual permit fee categories will end Fiscal Year 2018 with increases, the largest increases will be reflected in Zoning & Platting Fees, Engineering Consulting Fees, and Building Permit Sales.

Increases in Zoning & Platting Fees and Engineering Consulting Fees indicate that a number of developments are in the early stages and have not yet reached the point where building permits are necessary. However, the developments that were in process during Fiscal Year 2017 have begun building resulting in an increase of 35% in building permits between Fiscal Year 2017 and Fiscal Year

8

2018. Therefore, revenues for Fiscal Year 2019 are budgeted at a 42% increase to account for the planned developments as well as the developments under construction.

Other Revenue Sources Sales Revenue includes fire protection fees and park revenue. Fire Protection fees are charged to the Kaufman County Emergency Services District #6 and the Town of Talty. These fees are based on property values and will increase accordingly. Park revenues are expected to remain flat. Court Fines and Miscellaneous Revenues are expected to increase 3%. Donations & Grants are expected to remain flat, and Interest Income is expected to increase based on rising interest rates for available funds.

General Fund Expenses The Fiscal Year 2019 Budget includes an increase in expenditures of 10.15%. This increase is primarily the result of increased salary and benefits related costs.

Employee Compensation Personnel costs account for 68% of the General Fund’s expenses. The Fiscal Year 2019 budget includes a 5% merit increase for non-step employees and a 1 step increase (each step is 5%) for sworn police officers and fire fighters who are included on the step pay plan. The increase in salary for existing positions, when combined with all other benefits, will result in an increase of $881,410 (7.21%) in General Fund expenses.

Health Insurance Premiums The budget includes a 12% increase in health care costs. The industry average for health care cost increases is between 12% and 15%. The City competitively bids our employee health insurance in October.

Texas Municipal Retirement System The Texas Municipal Retirement System contribution rate for 2019 will increase to 13.6% from 13.36% in January of 2019. With the longer tenure of employees and increased salaries, the City’s contribution to TMRS will increase by $118,091 (9.89%) for the upcoming fiscal year.

New Positions The Fiscal Year 2019 budget does not include any new positions in the General Fund.

Fiscal Year 2019 will be the second year of a three year grant for six additional Fire Fighter positions.

The City will be reimbursed for 75% of the salaries for those six fire fighters during the fiscal year.

Contingency & Reserves A $200,000 line item contingency is included to offset unexpected costs. In addition to the contingency line item, there is a transfer of $347,854 to the operating reserve fund to meet the required three months of operating expenses held in reserve.

CAPITAL PURCHASES FUND The Capital Purchases Fund is used to make one-time purchases for General Fund Departments. It is primarily funded through a transfer from the General Fund of unrestricted fund balance. Segregating these purchases in this manner helps to ensure that fund balance is not used for recurring operating expenses and assists in the tracking of fixed assets. The following purchases are scheduled for Fiscal Year 2019: Land GovQA E‐Citation Equipment Milestone Camera Update Marked Unit Marked Unit Truck Truck SCBA & Cylinders Pinson Farm Areator/Spreader Golf Cart (Trash Hauler) Kubota Tractor Nativity Set Golf Cart ABI Laser Attachment Zero Turn Mower Zero Turn Mower Utility Tailer 3/4 Ton Truck for Mowing Fire Wall Replace City Phone System

UTILITY FUND The Utility Fund is an enterprise fund that accounts for the water, sewer, and refuse services that are provided to the City’s residents. Revenues are derived from charges for water consumption, wastewater collection, and refuse services.

Utility Fund Revenue During the Fiscal Year 2018 budget process, the City Council agreed to pass along the increases from NTMWD for water and wastewater collection and CWD for refuse services to all customers. Both NTMWD and CWD will be increasing rates for Fiscal Year 2019, therefore this budget includes proposed increases for water (5%), sewer (20%) and refuse services (5%) to cover the rising cost.

The majority of the increased expenditures is due to capital equipment purchases and increased costs of water and sewer service provided by the North Texas Municipal Water District as well as additional positions. The budgets for these services in the upcoming year include both the annual increases and the year-end adjustments for Fiscal Year 2018 that will be billed in November of 2018.

This fund also includes a 5% merit increase for all employees. Health care coverage is budgeted to increase 12% and TMRS contributions will increase by 8% due to long tenure of employees and the additional positions.

The following capital purchases are also budgeted for Fiscal Year 2019: Replacement Truck for Water Crew 4” Trash Pump Truck for new Sewer Crew Vactor Combination Unit Sewer Camera Shoring Panels Truck for Sewer Crew Leader Replacement Truck for Meter Tech

Contingency & Reserves A $50,000 line item contingency is included to offset unexpected costs. In addition to the contingency line item, there is a transfer of $352,034 to the operating reserve fund to meet the required three months of operating expenses held in reserve.

INTERCEPTOR FUND The Interceptor Fund revenue is derived from the $9.00 sewer service charge for each sewer connection on the City’s sewer system and used to pay debt issued by the North Texas Municipal Water District to construct the interceptors and associated lift stations. During Fiscal Year 2018, NTMWD began designing the Mustang Creek Lift Station. Construction will begin during Fiscal Year 2019, and the associated debt payments will also begin. The new debt will increase the Mustang Creek Interceptor debt payment by $1.4 million annually. This increase makes it necessary for the City to increase the Sewer Service Charge that is used to fund the interceptor debt payments. Initial estimates placed the fee increase at $11.00 per connection per month making the new fee $20.00 per month. By making a transfer from the Sewer Impact Fund of $200,000, the fee can be reduced to $16.00 per month.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT FUNDS The Capital Improvement Funds account for the design and construction of City facilities, roads and drainage, parks, and water and sewer systems. Unlike the operating budget, the capital improvement budgets do not conclude at the end of each fiscal year, as many CIP projects remain in progress over several years.

Capital Improvement Projects are funded from a number of different sources. Based on the funding sources, projects are put into one of two different funds: the General Capital Improvement fund, or the Utility Capital Improvement Fund.

General Capital Improvement Fund The projects in the General Capital Improvement Fund can be funded from bond proceeds, developer contributions, transfers from the General Fund or other funds not classified as water sewer related, and donations or grants. This fund currently has $17.6 Million worth of active capital improvements.

Funding sources for Fiscal Year 2019 projects are as follows:  Redbud Roadway Reconstruction - $1,325,322 transfer from the General Fund  City Hall Security Upgrades - $50,000 transfer from the General Fund Utility Capital Improvement Fund The projects in the Utility Capital Improvement Fund can be funded from bond proceeds, developer contributions, the Utility Fund, and the Water and Sewer Impact Funds. This fund currently has $20.3 Million worth of active capital improvements.

No new utility projects are being requested for Fiscal Year 2019. However, $77,485 will be transferred in from the Utility Fund for the utilities related to the Redbud Roadway Reconstruction, and $5,645,970 will be transferred in from the Sewer Impact Fund to fund a project that the Council is currently considering. Should the Council choose not to move forward with this sewer project, these funds will be returned to the Sewer Impact fund.

12

DEBT SERVICE FUNDS The City issues debt to support capital improvements. This debt is either tax supported and accounted for in the Debt Service Fund, or it is utility revenue supported and accounted for in the Utility Debt Service Fund. The combined total debt payments for Fiscal Year 2019 will be $6,905,513.

General Debt Service Fund Revenues required to pay the City’s outstanding tax supported debt are restricted to debt payments.

Revenues in this fund are collected through the debt service portion of the property tax rate and from the TxDOT Pass Through Toll reimbursement.

A committed fund balance is designated for early bond redemption. These funds are the accelerated portion of the reimbursement (amount above the guaranteed minimum annual payment) from TxDOT for the Pass Through Toll roadway projects. The City has retired an additional amount of the 2008 GO bonds annually according to the funds available. During Fiscal Year 2018, the City redeemed $2.005 million, bringing the total early redemption since Fiscal Year 2013 to $11,025,000. To date, this process has saved the City $6,515,963 in interest.

The required general debt payments for Fiscal Year 2019 total $6,189,594. In calculating the debt service tax rate, this number is reduced by the Pass Through Toll guaranteed minimum annual payment of $2,009,570 and $666,963 of available fund balance for the 2014 CO issue and the 2017 Tax Notes. This results in the tax rate being based on payments of $3,610,824 and is a reduction of $0.174316 per $100 valuation.

The final debt service portion of the tax rate is $0.227874 and will generate $3,477,930 in revenue for bond payments. Of this total, $0.156 (69%) results from voter approved general obligation debt.

Utility Debt Service Fund Revenues required to pay the City’s outstanding revenue supported debt are transferred from the Utility Fund, the Water Impact Fund and the Sewer Impact Fund. The exact amount required to cover the year’s bond payments is transferred in each year and the fund maintains a zero fund balance.

The total required debt payment for the upcoming year is $715,920.

HOTEL OCCUPANCY TAX FUND The Hotel Occupancy Tax (HOT) Fund is a special revenue fund that receives revenue through a 7% tax charged on all room rates by hotels or motels within the city limits. Expenditures are restricted to activities that promote tourism and encourage visitors to stay in local hotels or motels. The revenue for this fund is based on historical information and is expected to remain relatively flat at $140,000 for Fiscal Year 2019.

The Economic Development Corporation is responsible for allocation of the Hotel Occupancy Tax revenues for use by community organizations through an application process. The EDC Board sends a recommendation to the City Council for approval. A total of $60,000 has been proposed to be disbursed for Fiscal Year 2019. Those funds were allocated as follows:  Forney Arts Council - $19,500  Lions Club - $7,400  Downtown Business Association - $8,500

13

  

Forney Historic Preservation League - $9,000 Sharing the Love Foundation - $12,600 Forney Garden Club - $3,000

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION FUND The Economic Development (EDC) Fund is a special revenue fund that receives revenue from type 4B sales tax. Expenditures are restricted to activities that support and promote economic and community development.

Economic Development Revenue Economic Development Corporation revenues are expected to finish Fiscal Year 2018 at a 63% increase above the original budget due to the sale of two EDC owned properties.

CONCLUSION The Fiscal Year 2019 budget is a balanced budget and provides an operating basis for the next year.

It provides for strategic planning and investment in infrastructure, public safety, quality of life services, and our most valuable asset, our workforce. At the same time, we are maintaining the long-term fiscal viability of the community by promoting cost saving measures and supporting quality development.

14

While the budget process is always a challenge, we have produced a budget that is both balanced and sufficient to meet the need of the upcoming fiscal year.

On behalf of myself and the staff, I want to express my appreciation to the City Council for your diligent efforts throughout the year in providing guidance, direction and support for this budget. I feel this budget accurately represents the goals of the City which are designed to provide the highest quality of services to our citizens with the resources available.

I also want to thank Charity Wilson, Assistant Finance Director, for her tireless efforts and professional dedication in assisting me to ensure the financial integrity of the annual budget.

Respectfully Submitted,

Regardless of updates/changes to city facilities, City Hall must remain downtown Additional information is needed from staff prior to any final determinations o Determine need for feasibility study after additional information is received from staff o If a feasibility study is undertaken, it should be treated as a planning document to be acted upon Believes that public works in the primary city facility that needs addressing

Staff Objective:  Complete an internal review showing needs of current buildings – Estimated timeframe of June 2019

Amphitheater Usage & Events Shared Viewpoints and Ideas:   

Amphitheater is currently under utilized Supports staff drafting regulations to allow regulated alcohol service at events Supports staff developing policies/procedures for responsible use of the facility 17



Would like to see it used for a variety of events and different genres of music (concerts, art festivals, food festivals)

Staff Objectives:  Attempt to book higher profile acts and bring diversity to the venue – Estimated timeframe of 1 year  Review current policies/procedures and bring recommended changes to Council for necessary action – Estimated timeframe of 1 year.

Parks Master Plan Shared Viewpoints and Ideas: 

Recognizes that an excellent park system is essential for and a draw to the community



Believes city residents are carrying the burden for non-residents’ use of fields



Support putting a bond package in front of voters in the future for expansion of park facilities

Staff Objectives: 

Develop recommendation for council that would fairly distribute park utilization for residents and non-residents – Estimated timeframe of August 2019

18

Thoroughfare Plan, Road Projects & Funding Shared Viewpoints and Ideas:  Recognized as a major need in the City  Further meetings with additional information needed to develop a plan of action  Final version of the thoroughfare plan needs to be presented to Council for consideration in the new future Staff Objectives:  Presentation will be presented to Council by February 2019 – Estimated timeframe of February 2019  Staff will work with Engineer to identify additional means and methods to leverage State projects – Estimated timeframe of 1 year

Future Bonding & Financing Options Shared Viewpoints and Ideas: 

During this section, council members prioritized different bonding projects. Unanimously, the council voted to give roadway issues priority. Unfortunately, many of the roadways needing the most attention are not under the control of the City.

Council members narrowly chose parks as their second bonding priority with city facilities as their third. Discussion that followed indicated that with additional information council members may adjust the prioritization of parks and city facilities.

Prior to undertaking any feasibility studies for city facilities, council members asked that staff present information over their future city facility needs. As to parks, council members requested that a townhall meeting be organized for the public to review maps, options, and costs. On roadways, the council members wanted to begin addressing issues as soon as possible. Prior to picking one road project over another, council members requested additional information on the thoroughfare plan and on how the City can work with other entities.

Staff Objectives: 

Staff will await further direction from Council on any potential bonding initiatives – Timeframe TBD

Summary It was exciting to work with council members about the multitude of decisions facing the City. I found it very promising that members shared a universal desire to better the community for the whole and that they were on the same page as to what generally needs to be done. There are details to be worked out, but by staff providing some additional information, I believe that many of these issues will be tackled in the near future.

eneral Budget Information, Plan, & Process The city budget is a planning document for the use of financial resources during the fiscal year. The City of Forney is a complex organization, providing a wide range of services to its residents, customers, and visitors. City resources annually exceed $50 million. As with any large organization that provides a mixture of services, planning and management of financial resources are vital to the City. With increasing financial requirements of the School District, State and Federal governments on our citizens, it becomes even more important for the City to adequately plan and manage the use of its financial resources.

Fund Accounting In accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), the accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds and account groups, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity.

Government resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based on the purpose for which they are to be spent and the means by which spending activities are controlled.

A fund is defined as a fiscal and accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts recording cash and other financial resources, together with all related liabilities and residual equities or balances, and changes therein, which are segregated for the purpose of carrying on specific activities or attaining certain objectives in accordance with special regulations, restrictions, or limitations.

Fund accounting segregates funds according to their intended purpose and is used to aid management in demonstrating compliance with finance related legal and contractual provisions. It divides our reporting responsibility into several functional types as well as classifications. A brief explanation will facilitate your usage of this document. The minimum number of funds is maintained consistent with legal and managerial requirements.

Governmental fund types are used to account for the city’s general government activities and include the General, Debt Service, Capital Project and Governmental Restricted Funds.

Proprietary type funds are used to account for operations that provide services to other City departments or that are operated in a manner similar to private business and include both Enterprise and Internal Service Funds. Currently, there are no Internal Service Funds established and in operation. Additional information on Fund types is available in the Organization of Funds section.

29

Basis of Accounting The basis of accounting is the method by which revenues and expenditures or expenses are recognized. The accounting treatment applied to a fund is determined by its measurement focus. All governmental funds are accounted for using a current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when they become susceptible to accrual (i.e. both measureable and available). Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, if measureable, except for un-matured interest on general long-term debt which is recognized when due, and compensated absences which are recognized when the obligations are payable from currently available financial resources.

All proprietary fund types are accounted for on a flow of economic resources measurement focus and use the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized when they are earned, and expenses are recognized when they are incurred.

Basis of Budgeting Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) with the exception of Capital Projects Funds, which adopt project length budgets. Governmental type fund budgets are prepared on a modified accrual basis.

Governmental revenues are budgeted when they are measurable and available, and expenditures are budgeted in the period in which the liability is incurred. All proprietary fund types are budgeted using a flow of economic resources measurement focus and use the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are budgeted when they are earned and measurable and expenses are budgeted in the period in which the liability was incurred. The City departs form GAAP in the treatment of depreciation and encumbrances. Depreciation of fixed assets is not recognized in proprietary fund budgets. All annual appropriations lapse at fiscal year-end. Under the City’s budgetary process, outstanding encumbrances at year end are reported as reservations of fund balances since they do not constitute expenditures and liabilities and the commitments will be re-appropriated and honored in the subsequent fiscal year.

Accounting Code Structure Our Accounting Code Structure is designed to function with an 11-digit code, which is further divided into four sections. A Fund is a specific purpose classification, with a self-balancing set of accounts. A Department is an organizational or functional unit and may cross fund lines.

Activity/Object denotes a distinguishable service performed by an organizational component and is the final detail identification within the Account Number. Departments and divisions are not specified on the Revenue side; revenues are grouped by type instead of Activity and object is the final detail identification.

30

The Budget Process The City of Forney’s Home Rule Charter provides for the submission of the budget to the City Council by the City Manager by August 1st. The City’s Fiscal Year runs from October 1 to September 30.

The following information provides a brief overview of the steps taken to prepare the City’s annual budget, including the budget calendar used by City Staff. Please keep in mind that this is a simplified version of a complex process that is a combined effort of members of each of the City’s departments and requires an extensive period of time to complete.

Both revenues and expenditures are subject to change until the meeting when the City Council officially adopts the budget.

Likewise, the budget calendar serves as an approximate timeline and the events may not always occur at the exact time indicated.

The annual budget is prepared under the direction of the City Manager. Each department director formulates a base budget for each of the departments included in their division. Base budgets include costs related to all existing personnel, services, and functions. Directors also prepare supplemental requests that provide a separate set of expenditures required to provide a new service, increase staffing levels, or purchase new equipment. Once base and supplemental requests are prepared, the directors submit their budgets to the Finance department.

The Finance department compiles the information submitted, along with the revenue estimates, for review by the City Manager and Assistant City Manager. Meetings are then held with the department directors to review and revise. The proposed budget document is prepared and then submitted to the City Council by August 1st. Shortly thereafter, a budget workshop is held for the Staff and City Council to review and discuss the proposed budget.

Tax rate calculations and all of the related notice publications and public hearings, if necessary, occur throughout August and into September. A Public Hearing on the Budget is 31

held in early September and revisions continue. The final budget is reviewed by the City Council and adopted in late September.

Legal Level of Budget Control The legal level for expenditure budget control is the Fund level. Each Department Director is responsible for the budget in their respective departments. The Directors are given latitude to transfer budget funds within their departments, with the exception of the personnel services category. Transfers affecting the personnel services category or outside of the department require the approval of the City Manager. Additions to the budget that are not countered by a reduction elsewhere require amendment of the budget by City Council. Article VII of the City's Charter governs the preparation and submission of the budget and the Schedules and Attachments in this budget meet or exceed its requirements. Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the year for the General Fund and Enterprise Funds.

Formal budgetary integration is not employed for the Debt Service and Capital Projects Funds because effective budgetary control is alternatively achieved through bond indenture provisions and legally binding construction contracts, respectively.

Amendment of Approved Budget The amendment of a departmental budget, which affects the total budget, requires approval by City Council. The City budgets a contingency amount in the operating funds.

These contingency amounts are available to be used by the City Manager for any emergency, unforeseen expense or opportunity that might arise.

Fund Balance & Reserve Policies In accordance with the requirements of Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), the City describes fund balance as: (1) Restricted; (2) Committed; (3) Assigned; and (4) Unassigned. The Charter requires that we maintain under 7% of General Fund budgeted expenditures as fund balance. In addition, the City has reserved unassigned fund balance at 90 days of current year budgeted expenditures for both the General and Water/Sewer Funds. In other operating funds, the City shall strive to maintain a positive retained earnings position to provide sufficient reserves for emergencies and revenue shortfalls.

Except for special revenue funds, Fund Balance shall be used only for emergencies, nonrecurring expenditures, or major capital purchases that cannot be accommodated through current year savings.

Unassigned fund balance in the General Fund is used to fund the -78% Operating Reserve, Capital Improvements & Purchases, and Special Events.

This fund accounts for capital purchases for the General Fund. Not all items budgeted during 2018 were purchased, resulting in a higher than -73% ususal beginning fund balance. Those purchases, along with newly budgeted purchases, are anticipated to reduce the fund balance by 73% for the upcoming fiscal year.

This increase is the result of the Pass Through Toll agreement. This includes a committed blance of $2,094,588, that will be used to make an additional payment on the 2008 Bond Series. Unassinged fund 39% balance is being used to make annual payments on the 2014 Certificates of Obligation and the 2017 Tax Notes in order to reduce the debt service portion of the tax rate.

Impact Fee revenue is restricted to use on new roadway construction projects included on the Impact Fee Study and over $3 million was 622% transferred out in 2018. The increase in the fund balance is the result of additional anticipated fee collections with not current plan for use of those revenues.

55%

There are no budgeted expenses in this fund for Fiscal Year 2019, but technology fines will continue to be collected.

Revenues resulting from the juvenile and truancy prevention fees are restricted to the salary and benefits of a full time Juvenile Case Manager -16% position. For Fiscal Year 2019, the City will continue to transfer funds to the General Fund to pay for Juvenile Case Manager activities in the Municipal Court department.

Financial Policies Broad policy decisions regarding long-range debt management for the City of Forney that have emerged and that will be followed are summarized below: • Borrowing must not overload future taxpayers to the point where they will not be able to pay.

• Borrowing must be confined to capital improvements or projects which cannot be financed from current revenues.

•

Long-term debt should not provide for current operating expense.

• Borrowing for each object or purpose should be related to a time period of probable usefulness of the project and should in no instance be repaid in a time greater than the period of probable usefulness of the project.

The long-range policies of the City of Forney regarding financial management will be to exercise a discipline which allows us to retain a sound financial condition; strive to achieve the best possible rating on bonds; provide future generations with the ability to borrow capital for construction of facilities without severe financial burden; and give recognition to the community’s needs and ability to pay. These goals are accomplished in the following manner: • Prudent budgeting and effective budget control. Budget replacement of capital equipment as the need arises. (Office machines, automobiles, heavy equipment, etc.)

•

Pay-as-you-go financing of some capital improvements where feasible.

• Scheduling bond issues so that an equal principal amount is retired each year over the life of the issue producing a total debt service schedule with a declining balance each year.

•

Providing an adequate reserve fund to meet requirements under bond covenants.

•

Planning for capital improvements on a five year plan which is updated annually.

• Passing on the cost of extending utilities and improvements in subdivisions rather than burden the general public.

•

Provide working capital in all funds sufficient to meet current operating needs.

• Financial accounting and reporting in accordance with the method prescribed by the National Committee on Government Accounting of the Municipal Finance Officers Association and making such reports available to bond rating agencies and other financially interested organizations.

• Maintaining a fund balance sufficient to provide interim financing for necessary projects and meet unanticipated contingencies such as law suits, tax roll tie-ups, and severe seasonal fluctuation in sales of the city owned utilities.

All such bonds or certificates of obligation shall be issued in conformity with the laws of the State of Texas and shall be used only for purposes for which they were issued. b) No tax obligation bonds shall be issued without an election. The City Council shall prescribe the procedure for calling and holding such elections, shall define the voting precincts and shall provide for the return and canvass of the ballots cast at such elections. If at such elections a majority of the vote shall be in favor of creating such a debt or refunding outstanding valid bonds of the City, it shall be lawful for the City Council to issue bonds as proposed in the ordinance submitting same. However, if a majority of the vote polled shall be against the creation of such debt or refunding such bonds, the City Council shall be without authority to issue the bonds. In all cases when the City Council shall order an election for the issuance of bonds of the City, it shall at the same time submit the question of whether or not a tax shall be levied upon the property of the City for the purpose of paying the interest on the bonds and to create a sinking fund for their redemption.

3.

Revenue Bonds—The City shall have the power to borrow money for the purpose of constructing, purchasing, improving, extending or repairing of public utilities, recreational facilities or any other self-liquidating municipal function not prohibited by the State of Texas.

2.

Any authorization of payment or incurring of obligation in violation of the provisions of this Charter shall be void and any payment so made illegal. Such action shall be cause for removal of any officer who knowingly authorized or made such payment or incurred such payment or obligation, and shall also be liable to the City for any amount so paid.

3.

This prohibition shall not be construed to prevent the making or authorizing of payments, or making of contracts for capital improvements to be financed wholly or partly by the issuance of bonds, time warrants, certificates of indebtedness or certificates of obligation, or prevent the making of any contract or lease providing for payments beyond the end of the fiscal year, providing that such action is made or approved by ordinance.

Taxes for each year shall be paid before February 1 of the next succeeding year, and all such taxes not paid prior to that date shall be deemed delinquent, and shall be subject to penalty and interest as the City Council shall provide by ordinance. The City Council may provide discounts for the payment of taxes prior to January 1 in amounts not to exceed those established by the State of Texas.

A Brief History of Forney, Texas The following is an excerpt from Forney Country: A History of Northwestern Kaufman County, Texas (Forney Historic Preservation League, 1998), written by Jerry M. Flook. The photos were provided by the Forney Historic Preservation League. (www.historicforney.org)

Forney, Kaufman County, Texas is situated on black clay prairies drained by the East Fork of the Trinity River. It lies within a region of the state called the “Three Forks of the Trinity” when exploration by the white man began here in the late 1830’s. Prior to that time these blackland prairies were occupied mainly by herds of bison and Spanish horses, or mustangs. These animals have lent their name to the two creeks running through town – Big Buffalo Creek and Mustang Creek. The grasslands were also the favored hunting grounds of several groups of Indians. By the mid-1840’s two important roads had been marked out through the area – the Dallas-Kaufman Road and the Bonham-Buffalo Road – and intersected at a point near where Forney would eventually be established.

The first settlers in the area of present-day Forney did not begin to arrive until about 1846, well after the Indians had been pushed west of Fort Worth. By that time much of the land had already been granted in large “league and labor” tracts to citizens of the Republic of Texas, most of whom never saw, much less lived upon, the land. The land that was not thus taken was available as headrights, 320 acres for single men and 640 acres for married men, provided they built a cabin and improved a small portion of the land. Settlement remained sparse along the East Fork until the end of the Civil War, but what families there were tended to concentrate along the two early roads just described. The end of the war brought many changes to the area, including a steadily increasing influx of settlers, many from the war-torn South. It also brought a renewed effort to complete construction of the eastwest railroad between Marshall and Ft. Worth, which had been stalled by the war. Apparently two land speculators of Ellis County surmised that the rail line would pass through the country near the intersection of these two Kaufman County roads and that there was money to be made by developing a town here. So Asa R. Newton and Harben H. Self in 1869 purchased a tract of land at this place and platted a town which Self named “Brooklin” or “Brooklyn”. Soon Brooklyn would boast a general store, a saloon, a blacksmith shop, and a church/school house/Masonic lodge hall building. However, by 1872 it was clear that the route of the new railroad (the Texas & Pacific) would miss Brooklyn, by passing it about a mile to the north. In 1873 the T&P platted its own town where the rail line crossed the old Bonham-Buffalo Road (today called Bois D’ Arc Street) and named it Brooklyn for the nearby village it was supplanting.

47

Almost immediately leaders of the new rail town encountered a complication when they applied for a U.S. post office. They were informed that the name “Brooklyn, Texas” was unavailable since there was already a post office with that name. In order not to have the untenable situation of the town having one name and its post office another, Brooklyn’s leaders were faced with having to ask the railroad company to change the town’s name. To make this more acceptable to the railroad, they suggested that the new name should honor John W. Forney, political figure, diplomat, nationally known journalist, and director of the T&P Railway Co. The railroad agreed, and the names of the town and its post office officially were one – Forney, Texas.

Forney in the 1870’s and early 1880’s was known far and wide as a hard drinking, hard gambling, and hard brawling frontier settlement, despite the best efforts of the town fathers to build a progressive, respectable, and law abiding town. Several tales of those rough-and-tumble days survive and are the stuff of Hollywood wild-west scenes.

Before the coming of the railroad the economy of the area had been primarily subsistence agriculture and cattle raising. After 1873, access to distant markets provided by rail transportation stimulated rapid economic growth for Forney. In the late 1870’s and early 1880’s, before the fencing of the open prairies, Forney’s economy turned to the production of bois d’arc wood products and native prairie hay. Bois d’arc trees grew in abundance along the creeks, and the rot-resistant wood was made into bridge timbers, foundation piers, fence posts and paving blocks. Several streets of early Dallas were paved with Forney bois d’arc. But it was its native blackland prairie hay that brought Forney its first fame.

The natural vegetation of the prairies on which Forney was built was primarily a mixture of tall grasses, which made especially nutritious and clean hay. At first the hay was often free for the cutting on the unfenced prairie, but soon large meadows were fenced off by their owners, and a thriving economy grew around the production and marketing of Forney Blackland Prairie Hay. Huge hay warehouses were built along both sides of the railroad in town, and local hay producers and hay merchants prospered. Forney Hay became famous nationwide.

Even as hay reached it ascendancy, cotton was becoming an increasingly lucrative crop around Forney. Gradually less and less hay was produced as more and more meadows were plowed up for cotton planting. By the second decade of the 20th century cotton had become king of the Forney economy. At that time there were at least six cotton gins operating in town and several more in the surround countryside, and 15,000 to 20,000 bales of cotton were exported annually by rail. A cottonseed oil mill was erected by

48

Forney investors in 1910.

The wealth which hay and cotton brought to Forney around the turn of the century built many fine homes and churches, good schools, including the widely respected Lewis Academy, and a thriving downtown business district. A surprising number of the now-historic residences still survive, as do most of the business houses. These landmarks are now among the town’s most significant resources.

About 1914, with the growing popularity of the automobile, Forney found itself on the route of the new Dixie Overland Highway, promoted as the shortest, straightest, and only year round ocean-to-ocean highway in the U.S. Then in 1931 the DOH route was further upgraded as U.S. Highway 80, bringing an even more dramatic increase in traffic and its associated commerce. Filing stations and cafes sprang up all along the route (now called Broad Street). What had once been “Gin Row” became “Filling Station Row”.

It was not, however, only the new highway that brought about the change in “Gin Row”. The decline of the cotton economy, beginning in the early 1920’s accelerated by the Great Depression of the late 1920’s and early 1930’s struck Forney a heavy blow. The Texas Interurban Railway, a light rail commuter line completed through Forney in 1923, folded in 1932.

Then in 1935 a tornado cut a swath of destruction through the business district and the east side of town, killing one, injuring several, and wrecking much property, including the cotton seed oil mill. The mill was closed down later that year, and one by one the gins themselves eventually went out of business, as fewer and fewer acres were planted in cotton. A mass migration of young people from the family farm to the big city drained away much of the community’s vitality and talent. By the end of World War II the town had ground to a virtual standstill.

After an extended slumber, Forney started to reawaken in the 1960’s. The city joined the North Texas Municipal Water District, providing a higher quality and more dependable water supply. About this same time an antiques industry sprang up along IH-20 on the outskirts of town, and it is now its antiques that Forney is most widely known for. Also in the 1960’s the general population growth of the Metroplex began to bring renewed residential construction to Forney and with it an economic shotin-the-arm. Initially this revival was slow, but by 1990 the population surpassed 5,000, enabling Forney to lay claim to the advantages of being home-rule city. New residences, schools, churches, and parks are now being added on every hand, and retail development is following.

The trains still pass through town as they did in 1873, but they no longer stop. The route of busy U.S. Highway 80 no longer runs down Broad Street. Virtually no cotton and only a little hay, corn, soybeans and small grain are grown in the surrounding countryside, and none is marketed in town. The last remaining cotton gin, which ceased operation about 1983, is now retail.

But today, although Forney is marching into the future with a new and different economy, it nevertheless looks back with nostalgia on the old and takes pride in its heritage.

49

Since the time that Mr. Flook wrote Forney Country: A History of Northwestern Kaufman County, Texas, Forney has continued to prosper. Whereas the population at the time the book was published was slightly over 5,000, it has now exceeded 19,000. *Jerry Flook is the Author of Forney Country: A History of Northwestern Kaufman County, Texas (Forney Historic Preservation League, 1998)

The remaining 54 positions are divided between the General Fund and the Utility Fund. The reasons for this division and the amount of the split vary depending on which department accounts for the divided positions. All salary and benefit expenses are booked into the General Fund and are accounted for as part of the Utility Operating Transfer to the General Fund.

Analysis of Property Valuations & Tax Rate Property taxes provide one of the largest sources of revenue for the City and determining the tax rate is a significant component of the annual budget process. Therefore, discussion of the General Fund cannot be separated from discussion of the tax rate and associated revenue.

The Kaufman County Appraisal District (KCAD) establishes and certifies the value of each property within the City of Forney and provides this information to both the city and the County Tax Assessor’s Office.

The total certified value for Fiscal Year 2019 (Tax Year 2018) is $1,658,547,850.

This is an increase of $202,893,855

or 13.94%.

However, the Kaufman Country Appraisal District does not adjust the certified taxable value for the Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone (TIRZ). In order to provide an accurate revenue estimate the City subtracts the value of the properties included in the TIRZ. Total TIRZ value for Fiscal Year 2019 is $116,878,339. Therefore, property tax revenue estimates are based on a value of $1,541,669,511. This is an increase of $166,380,096 or 12% from the previous year’s adjusted taxable value.

Truth In Taxation Once the property values have been certified, the Truth in Taxation process begins. The Truth in Taxation process guides the development of the tax rate by establishing time line requirements, required public notices, and calculating effective and rollback tax rates. These rates provide reference points for all involved in the process, but especially citizens, by making a comparison to the prior year rate and allowing an option for citizens to limit the government’s ability to significantly increase the tax rate. These rates are published and the City uses them as a guide along with several other factors to help determine an acceptable tax rate for the upcoming year.

The effective tax rate enables the public to evaluate the relationship between taxes for the preceding year and for the current year, based on a tax rate that would produce the same revenue if applied to the same properties taxed in both years. The effective rate for Tax Year 2018 is $0.606046. For Fiscal Year 2019 the City will adopt a tax rate that exceeds the effective rate by $0.015065.

2019 0.606046 0.621111 0.015065

The rollback rate is the calculated maximum rate allowed by law without voter approval.

The rollback rate provides the taxing unit with about the same amount of tax revenue it spent the previous year for daily operation, plus an extra eight percent increase, and sufficient funds to pay debt in the coming year. The rollback rate for Tax Year 2018 is $0.7742560.

Tax Rate The total tax rate is made up of two portions.

Maintenance & Operations Rate The Maintenance & Operations (M&O) M&O Tax Rate portion of the tax rate provides funding for 0.400000 all general fund operations. This portion of 0.350000 the tax rate is flexible and can be 0.300000 adjusted to a higher or lower rate based 0.250000 0.200000 on the needs of the community. The M&O 0.150000 rate also generates reserve funds for 0.100000 future capital expenses and allows the 0.050000 City to maintain a three month operating Tax Year 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 reserve.

This rate will result in $6,001,791 in General Fund 56

revenue; an increase of $1,122,997 (23%) from the previous year’s General Fund revenue.

Thirty percent of the revenue increase, or $342,330 results from the new property value added to the tax roll in 2018.

Debt Service Tax Rate The Debt Service (DS) portion of the tax rate covers the City’s bond payments 0.450000 and other outstanding debt. This portion 0.400000 of the tax rate is not flexible, and is set by 0.350000 a calculation based on the required 0.300000 0.250000 fiscal year payments of the City’s debt.

0.200000 Fiscal Year 2019’s debt service rate is 0.150000 $0.227874. This is a decrease of $0.03491 0.100000 (-2.79%) from the Fiscal Year 2018 rate, 0.050000 resulting in $3,477,930 in revenue to be Tax Year 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 Debt Service Tax Rate 0.342 0.368 0.384 0.419 0.432 0.432 0.389 0.348 0.312 0.262 0.227 used for debt payments.

In addition to revenue from the debt service portion of the tax rate, the city receives an annual payment from the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) as part of a Pass Through Tolling agreement. With this agreement, the City sold the 2008 General Obligation Bonds to fund the expansion of three state owned roadways within the city limits and oversaw the construction. Upon completion of the projects, responsibility for the roadways was returned to the state and TxDOT began to reimburse the City annually.

Repayment is structured with a minimum annual payment, with an additional accelerated portion (amount above the guaranteed minimum annual payment) based on traffic counts.

57

The minimum annual payment is $2,009,570. The City Council has deemed any amount above the minimum payment be held as committed fund balance and, if possible, used for early redemption in order to reduce future interest payments. The city has redeemed an additional $11,025,000 resulting in $6,515,963 in interest savings. Combined with general obligation refunding and increasing property values, this early redemption process has also helped to decrease the debt service tax rate by $0.2042 since Fiscal Year 2014.

To date, the 2014 Certificates of Obligation have not impacted the debt service tax rate. The proceeds from these certificates were used to fund construction of Fire Station #2 and the new Animal Shelter. The payments have been made from fund balance in the Debt Service fund. Payments for the 2017 Tax Notes are also being made from fund balance. This fund balance is the result of interest collected in the fund, as well as delinquent and penalty taxes that have accumulated over prior years and is restricted to use on debt payments.

Total Tax Rate The total tax rate for Fiscal Year 2019 is proposed at $0.621111. This is the same total tax rate as the prior year. Tax revenue estimates are calculated at a 99% collection rate and are expected to result in a total of $9,479,721. This is an increase of $1,023,068 (12%) from Fiscal Year 2018 and is the result of an increase in assessed valuation and new taxable value. New taxable value added to the tax roll contributed $540,705 (53%) of the revenue increase.

The total tax rate has decreased each year since Fiscal Year 2014 (Tax Year 2013). The total five year reduction is $0.127909. As the debt service and total tax rates have decreased, the maintenance and operations rate has been able to increase by $0.041405, thereby enhancing existing services and adding new services and capital improvements without increasing the burden on the taxpayer.

Property Taxes - $6,001,791 The Kaufman County Appraisal District (KCAD) establishes the value of each property within the City of Forney. The certified taxable value for 2019 is $1,658,547,850. However, the KCAD does not adjust certified taxable value for property in the Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone (TIRZ) districts. As explained in the property tax analysis, the City subtracts these amounts in order to provide an accurate revenue estimate. This results in property tax revenue budgets being based on a value of $1,541,669,511. The General Fund property tax revenue estimate is calculated by dividing the taxable value by 100, multiplying by the maintenance and operations tax rate and then adjusted for the estimated collection rate of 99%. The maintenance and operations tax rate for 2019 is set at $0.393237, an increase of $0.03491 (9.74%) from the prior year’s rate. This rate will result in an increase of $1,023,068 (12.10%) from the Fiscal Year 2018 budget. The increase is the result of increased property values as well as new property added to the tax roll.

Property Reduction Tax - $1,895,578 In May of 1994, Forney citizens approved an additional 1.00% sales tax for the purpose of creating and funding the Forney Economic Development Corporation (FEDC) and property tax reduction. Half of the approved 1.00% funds the FEDC and the other half is retained by the City in order to offset property taxes.

increase animal adoptions, and adoption fees were increased in order to offset the costs of additional services.

Municipal Court Fines - $160,860 The majority of the City’s Municipal Court fines are collected from traffic and code violations.

While the City retains the largest portion of these fines, based on the offense committed and other factors, portions of the fines are distributed to the state, the county and other agencies.

Revenue categories for Permits & Inspections are relatively self-explanatory. This revenue category as a whole is expected to finish 2018 at approximately 157% above the original budget, which indicates growth is continuing at a very healthy pace. As in the prior year, the largest increases are in the areas of Zoning and Platting Fees and Engineering Inspection Fees. Building permits for the year are up 35% when compared to the previous year, and the City has issued over $2 million in building permits during Fiscal Year 2018. Revenue estimates for 2019 are conservative and based on average collections over the past few years.

Building Permits is the largest revenue category in Permits & Inspections, and historically a drop in the amount of revenue collected follows a spike like we have experienced over the last two years. While there are no indications that growth will slow at this point, the estimated building permit revenue has been decreased to $1,000,000 in the event that building slows during the current year.

Expenses have increased as a result of increased use of engineering services both in the absence of a Public Works Director, and due to increased growth. Fiscal Year 2018 revisions also include approximately $25,000 worth of unbudgeted prior year invoices related to the ongoing Thoroughfare Study, and the development of several options for a road way to connect Brooklyn Village to Highway 80.

Expenses are expected to decrease going into Fiscal Year 2019, as the Thoroughfare Study should be completed and hiring a Public Works Director should decrease our use of contract and other engineering firms.

The 2018 revisions have reduced significantly, as a result of several different factors: 

The City Manager position was not filled mid-year as initially anticipated, and a contracted interim was only used for a few months of the year, reducing costs associated with that position.

78

  

The Administrative Assistant position was reclassified to the Human Resources department as a HR Generalist.

The Executive Assistant position was filled later in the year than anticipated.

The CIP Manager has been acting as Interim Public Works Director and has not been paid from the City Manager’s department during that period.

Salary and Benefits increased as a result of promotions given during the end of Fiscal Year 2017 that remained unbudgeted in Fiscal Year 2018. This was corrected in Fiscal Year 2018 revisions and the first full year is accounted for in Fiscal Year 2019.

Education and Training costs, along with associated travel, have increased. The department has three CGFOs (Certified Government Finance Officers), and each employee must earn a minimum of twenty-five continuing education credits annually.

In addition to these, costs associated with appraisal and tax collections services have increased. The city’s payments to the Kaufman County Appraisal District have increased by $11,000 for the coming year, and with continued growth the number of parcels billed by the Kaufman County Tax office will also increase.

The Police department faced several staffing challenges throughout Fiscal Year 2018. A number of long-term employees retired, and a few staff members resigned, resulting in a higher than normal number of vacancies from mid-year forward. This explains the decrease in the Salary & Benefits category in the Fiscal Year 2018 revisions, and the significant increase in the departments overtime budget.

Overtime in the department has increased 105% from the original budget. This increase is the result of an extended period of understaffing, and overtime being paid at higher than anticipated pay rates. It is expected that overtime usage will decrease going into Fiscal Year 2019.

The Fiscal Year 2018 budget included a 7% increase for all sworn officers, and a 5% increase for all non-step employees. Officers received an additional unbudgeted increase of 3% to 14% in March based on the compensation study and discussions with the police association, and all non-step employees received an unbudgeted increase of 2% to 10%. The amount of the adjustment given in March varied based on the employee’s tenure and title, and added an additional $80,000 in salary and benefits costs for officers and $22,000 for non-step positions, for a total increase of $102,000 in department expenses. (This figure excludes any overtime and the increased benefit costs associated with overtime paid at higher rates.)

Changes were also made to the pay scale for police officers that increased their steps from 4% to 5%, and a 5% increase is included for all sworn officers. The department’s non-step employees could receive up to a 5% merit increase.

The Police Captain position was eliminated after the retirement of the individual filling the position. This position will be replaced with a regular Patrol Officer position and the remaining funds will be transferred to the Capital Purchases fund to assist in the purchase of two new patrol vehicles.

The Fiscal Year 2019 budget assumes that the existing vacancies will be filled, and the Police department is actively recruiting and filling the open positions.

The Fire departments entire 13.98% increase is related to salary and benefits. 





The department added six new fire fighters in December of 2017. Fiscal Year 2019 includes the first full year of these six. o The department did receive a SAFER grant to help offset the cost of these new positions for three years. However, the grant is based on the entry level pay at the time of the grant application and does not increase based on annual pay increases. The City has increased entry level pay by 8% since the grant was awarded in September of 2017 and will likely provide for additional 5% increases for the remaining two years. o The original estimate for grant proceeds in the current fiscal year was $328,140, but the actual amount received was $96,245. We have paid $284,303 for these employees to date. There was a delay in requesting reimbursement for the initial payment related to the set-up of new benefits.

The 2018 budget included a 7% increase for all step employees and a 5% increase for all non-step employees. An additional increase of between 3% and 23% was given to all fire department employees in March of 2018. This additional increase in pay increased the City’s annual expenses by $198,078.

Overtime in the department has increased 108% from the original Fiscal Year 2018 budget.

The Special Events department expenses will remain flat going into Fiscal Year 2019.

In previous years, some events were accounted for here and events that were partially funded from Hotel Occupancy Taxes were accounted for in Fund 95 – The Special Events Fund. At Fiscal Year 2018 year end, all event budgets were relocated to Fund 95. This simplifies the accounting process and allows for balances in the events each year to roll forward and continue to be used to fund future events. This move reduced expenses in the department by $16,500.

Removal of the Administrative Assistant position in the City Manager’s department offset a large portion of the added HR Generalist position.

Reduction of the cost of the City Manager search from $25,000 to $10,000.

Removal of the $15,000 budgeted for the Employee Education Program. Nothing was done with this in the current year so the expense was reduced to zero and was funded again in 2019.

eneral Fund Operating Reserve The Operating Reserve Fund is money that has been set aside in case of a catastrophic or emergency event. The required amount is calculated in each year’s budget process and transfers are established based on only the regular operating expense, meaning that all major non-recurring purchases are not included in the calculation. The goal is to have approximately three months operating costs in reserve so the City would be able to maintain uninterrupted service for at least that amount of time.

otel Occupancy Tax Fund Hotel Occupancy Tax is revenue collected from hotels and motels located within the Forney city limits. The amount paid to the city is set by ordinance at 7% of the room rate charged by the hotel or motel, excluding all other services provided (meals, laundry, etc.).

These funds may be used for both advertising and operational expenditures, as long as the primary purpose of the event is to attract out of town visitors.

Allocation of the HOT funds is determined by an application process which is administered by the Economic Development Corporation and subject to approval by the City Council.

Spellman Amphitheater Advertising Normally, Hotel Occupancy Taxes are used to fund advertising and promotions for all of the events held at the Spellman Amphitheater. However, in the current year, funds are being provided from the General Fund for advertising in order to allow the HOT Fund to recover from higher than normal spending in Fiscal Year 2018.

tility Fund The Utility Fund is an enterprise fund that accounts for the water, sewer, and refuse services that are provided to the City’s residents. All activities to maintain these services are accounted for in this fund, including but not limited to: operations, maintenance, billing and collections, administration, and financing.

The Utility Fund’s principle sources of revenues are charges to customers for water consumption, wastewater collection, and refuse services.

Five departments, across three divisions, are funded from Utility revenue.

Administration Division  Engineering -1020 Finance Division  Utility Billing – 1122 Public Works Division  Public Works Administration – 1511  Water – 1512  Sewer - 1513

144

Personnel The Utility Fund accounts for 26 of the City’s 166 Full Time Equivalents. Of these 26 positions, only the six Utility Billing employees are fully funded from the Utility Fund. As Public Works functions largely as a single unit, with employees who are classified in one department often working on projects that would be accounted for in a different department, all Public Works employees in the Utility Fund are split 75% in the Utility Fund and 25% in the General Fund. All salary and benefits expenses are booked into the Utility Fund and the 25% funded from the General Fund is accounted for as part of the Utility Operating Transfer to the General Fund.

Utility Fund Revenue Sales revenue makes up 99% of the Utility Fund’s revenue. Sales revenue is comprised of sewer collection and treatment fees, charges for in-city water, wholesale water sales, all other water and sewer related fees, and refuse and recycling fees.

The interest and penalty category makes up the majority of the remaining 1% and is comprised of penalties charged on utility accounts and interest collected on funds held in checking accounts and investments.

Fiscal Year 2019 includes a 5% increase in water utility rates. This increase is a pass through of the rate increase being imposed on the City by the North Texas Municipal Water District.

The cost of the sewer services that the North Texas Municipal Water District provides to the City will be increasing by 31% for the upcoming Fiscal Year. However, staff recommends only passing on 20% of the increase.

Sewer Pre-Treatment - $45,206 The North Texas Municipal Water District provides sewer pretreatment services for industrial use. The budget is provided to the City by the North Texas Municipal Water District. Estimates are based on actual volumes being treated from the period from August to July of the preceding year. The City is billed for this service and the expense is booked to the Utility Billing department. The expense is then passed on to Smurfit Kappa and Luminant Energy and booked to this revenue account.

Sewer Pro-Rata Fees - $1,500 The Sewer Pro Rata charge is made against the customer, developer or property owner to pay for the installation of sanitary sewer mains. The current budget is based on average collections in the current and previous years, this amount has been trending down and has been decreased for the upcoming year.

Industrial Sewer Sales - $786,465 Industrial Sewer accounts for only two users: Smurfit Kappa and Luminant Energy. Smurfit Kappa pays for sewer under the terms of an industrial sewer agreement that allows for the company to pay the city at cost for every gallon that flows through the sewer system with an annual fixed profit margin. The agreement states that the cost per 1,000 will increase when the city’s costs are increased and that the agreed upon profit 148

Budgeting for Utility Services

With regard to both sewer sales and water sales, it should be noted that staff uses a conservative approach in preparing the revenue estimates. Both revenue categories are based on customer usage and are directly impacted by weather conditions in a region where the conditions can rapidly go from drought to flood and back again.

These variables can make determining estimates for year end and upcoming years challenging. Timing presents an additional challenge. Budgets are finalized during the final three months of the fiscal year, and those same months record the highest levels of revenue in the Utility Fund.

margin will be based on the calendar year. Smurfit’s cost per 1,000 gallons will increase by 31% in October, and the fixed profit margin will increase by 3% in January.

Luminant Energy pays for sewer based on regular commercial rates and will also receive a 20% increase for Fiscal Year 2019.

With the substantial growth that has continued into and throughout Fiscal Year 2018, it is anticipated that sewer revenues will see an increase from the addition of new connections.

A conservative estimate of 5% is included to account for this growth. It must be taken into account that while this growth increases revenues, it also increases costs. More connections to the City’s sewer system increase the rate of flow, which impacts the immediate cost of moving wastewater. There is also a more costly effect in that more connections also lead to a long term need for more sewer capacity and this requires that infrastructure be expanded and upgraded.

This is being seen in the Fiscal Year 2019 flow and cost estimates from the North Texas Municipal Water District. The cost to the city for transporting and processing wastewater will be increasing by 31%. This budget proposes passing only 20% of that increase on to our citizens.

It is also important to note here that the sewer growth estimate is a larger increase than is anticipated for water revenue. Many of the areas currently experiencing rapid development are on the City’s sewer system, but purchase water from one of the three utility districts that overlap the City limits. These connections have an additional cost increase as the utility districts charge the city an administration fee for billing city sewer on their water bills.

Sewer District Sales - $232,280 The City provides wholesale sewer services to two housing developments located within the ETJ: Devonshire and Vintage Meadows. As there will likely be a third wholesale sewer contract added during Fiscal Year 2019, the Finance department has decided that this revenue should be tracked independently of the Sewer Sales category (where is was recorded in the past).

Sewer Discharge Sales - $55,000 Luminant Energy uses water to produce electricity and the water is metered, discharged, and then treated. The City is paid per gallon for the additional expense resulting from treating this water.

Industrial Water Sales - $946,674 Industrial Water, like Industrial Sewer, currently only has two users: Smurfit Kappa and Luminant Energy. The terms of Smurfit Kappa’s water agreement are the same as the sewer agreement. The company pays for water flow at the same rate as the city pays the North Texas Municipal Water District per gallon. There is also an agreed upon annual fixed profit margin. Smurfit Kappa’s rate per 1,000 gallons for water will increase by 5% in October, and the fixed profit margin will increase by 3% in January.

Luminant Energy relies heavily on reclaimed water, and their total potable water consumption is relatively low. Their water is billed at the regular commercial rate and will increase by 5% for the 2019 Fiscal Year.

Water Sales - $3,744,317 This represents water sales generated from approximately 6,000 residential and 400 commercial water customers inside the city limits. The amount charged for water service is a base rate plus a tiered scale for any usage over 2,000 gallons. The City’s water is purchased from the North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD) for resale to our customers.

2019 Budget

A 5% increase in water rates is budgeted for Fiscal Year 2019. The North Texas Municipal Water District will be increasing their rates by 5% and the city’s increase would be a pass through of the cost increase.

The cost of purchasing water is also increasing due to an increase in the City’s take or pay contract minimum with the North Texas Municipal Water District. The contract minimum has increased by 106,929,000, from 1,849,256,000 in Fiscal Year 2018 to 1,956,485,000 for Fiscal Year 2019. Water rates will not be adjusted to offset the additional $313,109, as it is assumed to be covered in higher overall usage.

Please note that this increase is just for purchasing water and entirely excludes the many costs associated with moving the water from the NTMWD take point to the end user. Operating costs related to water have increased a little over 50% from Fiscal Year 2014 - 2018. Active water system capital improvement projects (required additional infrastructure) have increased from $3.5 million to $12 million (This total includes the upgrade of Pump Station #2, which will be largely funded by the water districts. Excluding the water districts portion, the total is closer to $4.8 million. However, this project entirely impacts city infrastructure and any addition or expansion of the city’s infrastructure results in long term addition of maintenance and operations costs.) Annual debt payments related to water have also increased 2% during this period. All

of these items impact the total cost of purchasing and delivering water to our citizens.

Water District Water Sales - $4,424,982 The City contracts with four water districts for the provision of water on a take or pay basis.

This allows the City to plan for a minimum revenue stream on which it can rely to purchase the supply for such contracts. Contracts are based on a water consumption period that runs from August to July. This allows the city to bill adjustments for any overages, and notify the water districts of rates for the upcoming year prior to the fiscal year end. The revenue budgeted for the next fiscal year is the minimum amount the contract will produce and is determined on a formula basis contained in the contracts. The four water districts use just over 50% of the city’s take-or-pay contract minimum with the North Texas Municipal Water district.

During Fiscal Year 2018, the City purchased a water line that will aide in providing service to the new Overland Grove development from Markout Water Supply. Markout requested that the City reduce their monthly bill by $30,000 over a four month period in place of issuing a check for $120,000. This is the reason for the reduction in income during Fiscal Year 2018.

151

Looking forward to Fiscal Year 2019, water district revenue is currently anticipated to increase 19% from the previous year’s budget. All four wholesale water customers exceeded their contracted minimums for Fiscal Year 2018 and will have new minimums for Fiscal Year 2019.

Reclaimed Water Sales - $1,500,000 The City purchases reclaimed water from the City of Garland and in turn sells it to Luminant Energy at a mark-up of $0.10 per 1,000 gallons. This type of water cannot be utilized as a potable source but is an excellent alternative for this type of industrial application. The arrangement is a straight-forward demand purchase, meaning that less demand from our end user results in less reclaimed water purchased from the City of Garland.

Meter Sales - $100,000 This fee is charged for each new meter set connecting to the City’s water system and is based on the size of the meter being purchased.

Transfer Fees - $900 This fee is charged for transferring existing utility services from one location within the city limits to another.

152

Connection Fees - $30,000 The connection fee is a charge of $25.00 applied to each new service.

Refuse and Recycling Sales - $784,000 The City contracts refuse and recycling collection with Community Waste Disposal (CWD) for residential and senior utility customers. Commercial services are not provided by the City and must be contracted directly with CWD. The Fiscal Year 2019 budget proposes a 5% increase in refuse collection rates. The City’s contract with CWD allows for an annual price increase based on the amount equal to the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in January of each year. This increase is capped at 5%. The cost of garbage collection was increased by 5% in January of 2018 and the increase was included in the Fiscal Year 2018 operating budget.

Only one of the four major maintenance projects planned for Fiscal Year 2018 were completed during that fiscal year – The Aimee Street Water Tower Rehabilitation.

The other three projects originally planned for 2018 have been moved to Fiscal Year 2019: 154

  

Weaver Street Lift Station Upgrade - $275,000 Replace clay tile pipe along Houston Street Replace clay tile pipe along Austin Street - $660,000 (Combined Austin & Houston)

The following projects are also proposed for 2019:  Replace clay tile pipe on FM 740 - $515,893  Replace clay tile pipe on Cedar Street - $315,176  Replace clay tile pipe on Shands - $239,323 Services & Supplies accounts for 8% of the fund’s expenses and is expected to decrease 21% from $1.5 million in 2018 to $1.2 million in 2019. The majority of this decrease is due to the sewer modeling project that is expected to be completed in Fiscal Year 2018. This category includes professional services including engineering, studies, consulting, required annual testing and licensing fees, employee supplies and employee education.

Salary & Benefits costs are 11% of the Utility Fund’s expenses and are expected to increase by 24% for 2019. With the addition of four new positions in the Sewer department and one new position in the Public Works Administration department. Positions being added include:  Sewer Crew Leader  Sewer Equipment Operator  Sewer Maintenance Technician II  Sewer Maintenance Technician I  PW Administrative Assistant

Total expenses will increase just over 18% between Fiscal Year 2018 and 2019. The largest impact on this increase is the addition of the major maintenance projects from both fiscal years listed above, the five new full time equivalents and the rising costs of water purchases and sewer treatments will also play a role in the increase.

tility Operating Reserve

The Operating Reserve Fund is money that has been set aside in case of a catastrophic or emergency event. The required amount is calculated in each year’s budget process and transfers are established based on only the regular operating expense, meaning that all major non-recurring purchases are not included in the calculation. The goal is to have approximately three months operating costs in reserve allowing the City to maintain uninterrupted service for at least that amount of time.

nterceptor Fund Payments on the Interceptors are split between the Utility Fund and the Interceptor Funds. The Utility Fund pays the maintenance and operations costs and the Interceptor Fund pays the North Texas Municipal Water District for the debt issued to construct the interceptors.

For Fiscal Year 2019, the interceptor payments will be split as follows:   

Buffalo Creek Interceptor – 77% Interceptor Fund, 23% Utility Fund Mustang Creek Interceptor – 94% Interceptor Fund, 6% Utility Fund Forney Interceptor – 100% Utility Fund

During Fiscal Year 2018, the North Texas Municipal Water District began designing the Mustang Creek Lift Station. Construction will begin during Fiscal Year 2019, and the associated debt payments will also begin.

The new debt will increase the Mustang Creek Interceptor debt payment by $1.4 million annually. This increase makes it necessary for the City to increase the Sewer Service Charge that is used to fund the interceptor debt payments.

Initial estimates placed the fee increase at $20.00 per connection per month. By making a transfer from the Sewer Impact Fund of $200,000 the fee can be reduced to $16.00 per month.

This is still a significant increase, and it is likely that the fee will need to increase again as payments are expected to remain high. However, staff is hopeful that with the added connections growth is bringing, and with the increased revenue from adding at least one additional wholesale sewer contract, the fee will not exceed the new rate.

Legal Debt Margins for General Obligations All taxable property within the City is subject to the assessment, levy and collection by the City of a continuing, direct annual ad valorem tax that is sufficient to provide for the payment of principal and of interest on all ad valorem tax debt within the limits prescribed by law. Article XI, Section 5, of the Texas Constitution is applicable to the City, and provides for a maximum ad valorem tax rate of $2.50 per $100 taxable assessed valuation for all City purposes. The Home Rule Charter of the City adopts the constitutionally authorized maximum tax rate of $2.50 per $100 taxable assessed valuation.

Administratively, the Attorney General of the State of Texas will permit allocation of $1.50 of the $2.50

General Debt Service The primary source of revenue for the General Debt Service Fund is the ad valorem property tax. The proposed ad valorem tax rate of $0.621111 is split into two rates. Approximately 37% ($0.227874) of the tax revenue is used to pay principal and interest on the City’s outstanding general obligation debt. The remaining 63% ($0.393237) of the revenue generated by the tax rate is used to pay for maintenance and operating costs incurred in the General Fund.

The Debt Service (DS) portion of the tax rate covers the City’s bond payments and other outstanding debt.

This portion of the tax rate is not flexible and is set by a calculation based on the required fiscal year payments of the City’s debt. Fiscal Year 2019’s debt service rate is $0.227874. This is a decrease of $0.03491 (-13%) from the Fiscal Year 2018 rate, resulting in $3,477,930 in revenue to be used for debt payments.

The Debt Service tax rate is calculated by subtracting any revenue paid from other sources from the annual required debt payment and then dividing that result by the adjusted taxable value and multiplying by 100.

(Total annual debt payment) – (Non-tax revenue) ÷ (Adjusted Taxable Value) x 100 = Debt Service Tax Rate ((6,189,594 - 2,676,532) ÷ 1,541,669,511) x 100 = $0.227874

In addition to revenue from the debt service portion of the tax rate, the city receives an annual payment from the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) as part of a Pass Through Tolling agreement. With this agreement, the City sold the 2008 General Obligation Bonds to fund the expansion of three state owned roadways within the city limits, and oversaw the construction. Upon completion of the projects, responsibility for the roadways was returned to the state and TxDOT began to reimburse the City annually.

Repayment is structured with a minimum annual payment, with an additional accelerated portion (amount above the guaranteed minimum annual payment) based on traffic counts.

The minimum annual payment is $2,009,570. The City Council has deemed any amount 179

above the minimum payment be held as committed fund balance and, if possible, used for early redemption in order to reduce future interest payments. The city has redeemed an additional $11,025,000 resulting in $6,515,963 in interest savings. Combined with general obligation refunding and increasing property values, this early redemption process has also helped to decrease the debt service tax rate by $0.204221 since Fiscal Year 2014.

To date, the 2014 Certificates of Obligation and the 2017 Tax Notes have not impacted the debt service tax rate. The proceeds from the certificates were used to fund construction of Fire Station #2 and the new Animal Shelter, and the proceeds from the tax notes funded fire department equipment. The payments have been made from fund balance in the Debt Service fund. This fund balance is the result of interest collected in the fund, as well as delinquent and penalty taxes that have accumulated over prior years and is restricted to use on debt payments.

Pass Through Toll Program – Early Redemption The Pass Through Toll Program is an agreement between the City and the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). With this agreement, the City sold the 2008 General Obligation Bonds to fund the expansion of three state owned roadways within the city limits, and oversaw the construction. Upon completion of the projects, responsibility for maintenance of the roadways was returned to the state and TxDOT began to reimburse the City annually.

TxDOT began making annual payments to the City in Fiscal Year 2013. This repayment is structured with a minimum annual payment and an additional accelerated portion (the amount above the guaranteed minimum annual payment) based on traffic counts. The minimum annual payment is $2,009,570. The City Council has deemed any amount above the minimum payment be held as committed fund balance and, if possible, used for early redemption in order to reduce future interest payments. As of August 2018, the City has redeemed an additional $11,025,000 resulting in $6,515,963 in interest savings.

apital Improvement Projects Unlike the City’s operating budget, the capital improvement budget does not conclude at the end of each fiscal year. Many of the larger projects remain in progress for multiple years. As economic conditions and the needs of the Forney community change, it is often necessary to reprioritize which projects receive funding.

Capital improvements are defined as facilities and infrastructure that have a life expectancy of three or more years and are owned and operated by or on behalf of a political subdivision.

Generally, CIP Projects are relatively expensive and nonrecurring, have a multi-year useful life, and result in fixed Factors considered in the evaluation of assets. This includes construction and acquisition of new capital projects: buildings, construction and reconstruction of streets,  Community Economic Effects water and sanitary sewer improvements, drainage  Fiscal Impacts improvements, and land purchases. Occasionally, studies  Whether an urgent need or and master plans that will impact land use, facilities, and opportunity is present infrastructure are accounted for as part of the CIP.  Alignment with City Council The purchase and replacement of vehicles and equipment are not included with capital projects but are fixed assets. Information on General Fund fixed assets can be found in the Capital Purchases Fund. Capital purchases for the Utility Fund and the Economic Development Corporation Fund can be found within each of those funds.

Planning Process Capital Projects are requested by the Department Directors as part of the annual budget process. Requests are submitted and then reviewed by the City Manager’s Office and finance staff. Projects approved by the City

     

Strategic Plan Implications of deferring the project Amount of disruption and inconvenience Environmental, aesthetic and social effects Health and safety effects Feasibility, including public support and project readiness Advantages that would accrue from relation to other capital projects

Manager are then presented to the City Council along with the annual operating budget for final approval. The Capital Project Five Year Plan is also reviewed and updated at that time.

Occasionally, the need arises to add a new project outside of the annual budget process.

When this occurs, the project is presented to the City Council through the regular budget amendment process.

The Capital Improvement Program is comprised of four funds:    

General Fund Capital Improvement Fund Utility Capital Improvement Fund Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Fund EDC Capital Improvement Fund - The information on the EDC Capital Improvement Fund is included in the Economic Development Corporation section.

The City of Forney separates capital improvement projects into several categories within these funds: General Fund Capital Improvements  General Facilities  Roads, Signalization, Drainage  Pass Through Toll – These are capital improvements made in partnership with the State of Texas on state owned roadways whereby the City advances the funding for the project, oversees the construction process and is reimbursed by the state over a period of years. At completion of the project, the state retains ownership of the asset and is responsible for regular maintenance.  Parks and Recreation  Combination Projects – These are capital improvements to the City’s roadway, water and/or sewer systems that are performed together in order to reduce cost and time spent on the project.

Utility Capital Improvements  Water  Sewer  Combination

197

Estimated Impact on Operating As projects in the Capital Improvement Program are completed, responsibility for the improvement is turned over to the proper city department. The department is then responsible for any costs associated with the maintenance and operation of the final fixed asset. Depending on the type of project, the results of the improvement can have no operating impact or can increase or decrease operating expense. Occasionally, projects will also impact revenue. Estimates of these costs are included with the individual project details.

Estimated Impact on Operating (over 4 year period) Trinity was one of the worst streets in the City and the complete reconstruction of ($10,000) the roadway will reduce maintenance spending.

During Fiscal Year 2017, fields 2 & 4 were extended. After completion of the extention it was determined that the lighting needed to be relocated. The new lighting will have no impact on the operating budget.

This was a replacement and upgrade of the audio visual system in the court room and will have no impact on the operating budget.

This project replaced the majority of the fences on College Avenue.

Any maintenance costs will be the responsibility of the property owners. ($10,000)

Maintenance is estimated in anticipation of regular maintenance, similar to that of the existing fire station but taking into account age and new maintenance contracts that may be added to the new building. Utilities were calculated based on the utility cost per square foot of the existing fire station, and reduced slightly in expectation of the new station being more energy efficient. Required additional personnel includes reclassification to officers and three additional fire fighters and these are calculated at partial year for year one and full year plus 5% for each additional year.

This project should have virtually no impact on operating expense. There is a potential for increased revenues as older meters that may have lost some accuracy are replaced with more accurate meters. But upon completion of Phases I & 2, this increase has shown not to be substantial.

Tax Increment Financing Fund The Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone was established in December 2008 by City Council and includes approximately 1,730 acres of land. The Zone was created as an economic development tool that uses the tax generated by new valuations to help finance the cost of improvements needed to promote development within the Zone. The City contributes 100% of the taxes collected in the Zone (less taxes collected on the base value) to the Tax Increment Financing (TIF) fund. The City entered into an interlocal agreement with Kaufman County to participate in the Zone by contributing 50% of the County tax rate (less taxes collected on the base value) to the TIF fund.

Values are rising in the TIRZ due mostly to the development of residential homes. In Fiscal Year 2018 values were $75,520,151. The values in this budget were certified at $116,878,339, a 55% increase in one year. Taxes collected on the proposed rate of $0.621111 will produce $725,944 in revenue from the City. Historically, the County contribution has been approximately 30% of the City contribution. Therefore, the total tax contribution to the TIRZ will be approximately $943,727 for Fiscal Year 2019.

Tax Revenue - $1,858,251 In May of 1994, Forney citizens approved an additional 1.00% sales tax for the purpose of creating and funding the Forney Economic Development Corporation (EDC) and property tax reduction. Half of the approved 1.00% funds the FEDC and the other half is retained by the City in order to offset property taxes. Estimates for sales tax collections are based on prior year collections and trends.

Over the past five years, sales tax revenues have increased an average of 13% per year. This continued increase is indicative of a growing local economy, resulting from continued population growth within the city limits and the surrounding areas, as well as increased commercial development. The City has always taken a very conservative approach to budgeting sales tax. The Fiscal Year 2018 budget assumed a 7% increase in sales tax revenue and actual collections are just over 11% for the year. For Fiscal Year 2019, an increase of 5% from the current year end estimate is expected.

Interest & Penalty - $8,000 Interest is collected on checking accounts and investments.

Miscellaneous - $109,727 Miscellaneous Income for the EDC includes lease income, sale of properties, and minor, one time payments made for small events or training courses hosted by the Forney Economic Development Corporation.

GLOSSARY Account A separate financial reporting unit for budgeting, management, or accounting purposes. All budgetary transactions, whether revenue or expenditure, are recorded in accounts. Several related accounts may be grouped together in a fund. A list of the accounts into which money can be put or taken is called the chart of accounts.

Accounting Standards The generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) promulgated by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board that guide the recording and reporting of financial information by the state and local governments. The standards establish such guidelines as when transactions are recognized (accrual, modified accrual, or cash basis), the types and purposes of funds, and the content and organization of the annual financial report. At the federal level, accounting standards are developed by the Federal Accounting Standards Advisory Board.

Accrual Basis Refers to when a financial transaction is recorded. Accrual is a method of accounting in which revenues are recorded when measurable and earned, and expenses are recognized when a good or service is used. For example, professional fees is an expense that recognizes the use of services form attorneys, engineers, etc. In the case of modified accrual accounting, expenditures are recognized when the goods or services are received and revenues, such as taxed, are recognizes when measurable and available to pay expenditures in the current accounting period. See Basis of Accounting.

Accrued Interest In the sale of a new issue of municipal bonds, the dollar amount, based on the stated rate or rates of interest, which as accrued on the bonds from the dated date, or other stated date, up to but not to including the date of delivery. When a bond is purchased in the secondary market, the dollar amount, based upon the stated rate of interest, which has accrued on the bond form the most recent interest payment date, up to but not including the date of settlement. Accrued interest is paid to the seller by the purchaser and is usually calculated on a 360-day-year basis (assumes each month has 30 days). See Interest.

Activity Departmental efforts that contribute toward the accomplishment of specific, identified program objectives.

Ad Valorem Tax A direct tax based “according to value� of property. Counties and school districts and municipalities usually are, and special tax districts may be, authorized by law to levy ad valorem taxes on property other than intangible personal property. Local governmental bodies with taxing power may issue bonds or short-term certificates payable from ad valorem taxation. See Tax. Compare Excise Tax; Special Assessment.

Allotment The gradual release of funds to departments or other units within government that prevents the premature depletion of their appropriation.

Amortization The process of paying the principal amount of an issue of bonds by the periodic payments either directly to bondholders or to a sinking fund for the benefit of bondholders. Payments are usually calculated to include interest in addition to a partial payment of the original principal amount. See Debt Service.

Amortization Schedule A table showing the gradual repayment of an amount of indebtness, such as a mortgage or bond, over a period of time.

Appropriation Legal authorization to make expenditures or enter into obligations for specific purposes.

Appropriations are normally passed by the council every year. An appropriation may be approved for operating expenditures and another for capital items, or one appropriation may be passed for both types of expenditures.

239

Assessed Valuation An annual determination of the just or fair market value of property by the county property appraiser for purposes of ad valorem taxation. If a tax on property is imposed by virtue of the value of its use, the assessed valuation is its classified use value.

Assessed Value The value of property for the purposes of levying property taxes. In some states the assessed value is the same as the market value less exemptions, while in others it is some fraction of market value.

Available Fund Balance Money remaining from prior years that is not committed for other purposes and can be allocated in the upcoming budget.

Balanced Budget Current revenues equal current expenditures. The legal requirements for a balanced budget may be set by the state or local government.

Bond A way of borrowing money long term for capital projects. A bond is a promise to repay money borrowed on a particular date often 10 or 20 years in the future. Most bonds also involve a promise to pay a specified dollar amount of interest at predetermined intervals.

Bond Proceeds The money paid to the issuer by the purchaser or underwriter for a new issue of municipal bonds, used to finance the project or purpose for which the bonds were issued and to pay certain costs of issuance as ma be provided in the bond contract.

Budget A plan for spending that balances revenues and expenditures over a fixed time period, usually a year, and that includes, at least by implication, a work plan. In actual practice the term budget has two connotations: the financial plan presented to the body for adoption; and the plan finally approved by that body. It is usually necessary to specify whether the budget under consideration is proposed or whether it has been approved by the appropriating body, although this may be clear from the context.

Budget Amendment The budget may be formally amended after it has been approved. Amendments may be required, for example, with the incorporation of a new labor contract or if revenues fall or grow beyond projections.

Budget Calendar A time table with deadlines when particular tasks must be completed in order for council to approve the spending plan before the beginning of the next fiscal year.

Budget Cycle The budget cycle includes preparation of budget requests, legislative approval of the budget requests, budget implementation, and summary reporting on actual budget transactions.

Budget Guidelines Once revenue projections are in place, the chief executive, along with key policy makers, develops guidelines to provide a sense of the budget environment for the forthcoming year.

Departments can then make appropriate budgetary requests based on this information.

Budget Manual A booklet prepared by the budget office that provides a description of the budget process and the forms departments need to prepare their budget requests. The manual will also contain the budget calendar.

Budget Reserves Money accumulated for future purposes in the case of unforeseen circumstances or for the replacement of buildings or equipment.

Building Improvement (reserves) Money accumulates for deferred maintenance, renovations, and repairs to government-owned facilities.

Capital Assets Things the city owns, such as buildings, land, roads, bridges, and water treatment plants, that cost a considerable amount of money and that are intended to last a long time.

240

Capital Budget A spending plan for improvements to or acquisition of land, facilities, and infrastructure that balances revenues and expenditures, specifies the sources of revenues, and lists each project or acquisition. Normally a capital budget must be approved by the legislative body. The capital budget and accompanying appropriation ordinance may be included in a consolidated budget document that has a section devoted to capital expenditures and another to operating expenditures, or two separate documents may be prepared – one for the capital budget and capital improvement plan and another one for the operating budget.

Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) A list of projects for a period of time, usually five years, by department.

It may or may not list anticipated revenues to pay for the projects, and is not appropriated like a budget, but may be adopted by the legislative body to indicate approval. A CIP does not grant permission to commit funds, but the first of the plan is normally designated as the capital budget for the forthcoming year. As each year’s list of projects is approved and completed, another year of projects is added to the plan to maintain the five-year planning horizon.

Capital Outlay Spending on fixed assets usually above a certain minimum in cost, such as equipment that is intended to last more than a year or purchases above a minimum cutoff point in cost, such as $5,000.

Capital Projects Funds One or more governmental type of funds established to account for resources used for the acquisition of large capital improvements, other than those accounted for in proprietary or trust funds.

Capitalized Interest or Funded Interest A portion of the proceeds of a bond issue set aside, upon issuance of the bonds, to pay interest on the bonds for a specified period of time. Interest is commonly capitalized during the construction of a revenue-producing project.

Cash Flow A sufficient amount of cash on hand to cover disbursements or payments that are coming due.

Part of the duties of the finance director is to ensure sufficient cash is on hand or available in short term investments to meet expected disbursements.

Change Orders A change in the design or specifications of an already approved capital project that often creates a need for an increased expense.

Chart of Accounts A way of recording revenues and expenditures that includes all transactions and that fits the organizational structure. A chart of accounts assigns a unique number to each type of transaction (e.g. salaries or property taxes) and to each budgetary unit in the organization.

Comprehensive Annual Financial Report Usually called the CAFR, this report summarizes financial data for the previous fiscal year in a standardized format. An outside auditor often examines this document to judge if it represents fairly the financial condition of the city. The auditor’s report is usually attached to the CAFR. The CAFR organizes information by fund and contains two basic types of statements: (1) a balance sheet that compares assets with liabilities and fund balance and (2) an operating statement that compares revenues with expenditures. A particular variation of the operating statement compares the budgeted amounts with the actual levels of revenues and expenditures.

Constant Services The cost of providing this year’s level of services next year. Sometimes called a maintenance-of-effort budget, the constant services level is used as a baseline for budget calculations.

Contingency A budgeted account set aside to meet unforeseen circumstances.

Current Assets Those assets than can be easily converted to cash within the current year.

241

Debt Limit The maximum amount of debt which an issuer of municipal securities is permitted to incur under constitutional, statutory or charter provisions.

Debt Service Annual payments of interest and principle that the city owes on money that it has borrowed.

Debt Service Funds One or more funds established to account for revenues and expenditures used to repay the principal and interest on debt.

Designated Fund Balance That portion of a fund’s liquid net assets that is earmarked for contingencies or other possible uses yet are still available for appropriation. Unlike the reserved portion, the designated portion of the fund balance does not have a binding commitment for how the resources will be used. See Reserved Fund Balance and Undesignated Fund Balance.

Disbursement Payment for goods or services that have been delivered and invoiced.

Discretionary Accounts Funds set aside in the budget that may be used in emergencies or other anticipated contingencies.

Earmarking Revenue from fees and licenses, taxes, or grants may be designated as to how it may be spent. Many state and federal grants are earmarked for particular types of projects.

Encumbrances Budget authority that is set aside to pay for expenditures that have been committed either by the authorization of a purchase order or by a contract.

Enterprise Fund A separate fund that supports services primarily from fees. Examples are water, sewer, golf, and airport funds. Some local governments also treat as enterprises those funds that run like a business and charge fees, but do not cover all their costs; the remaining costs may be transferred out of the general or other funds or may come form grants or earmarked taxes. Enterprise fund agencies generate their own revenue through the sale of services. That revenue directly affects spending levels of that agency.

Enterprises Government-owned services, such as utilities, that operate on a fee-for-service rather than a tax-paid basis.

Equipment Replacement (reserves) Money made available for purchasing operating equipment and vehicles as they become obsolete or unusable.

Executive Budget A proposed budget put together by the chief executive or his or her designee for review and approval or modification by the legislative branch.

Executive Budget Hearings After an initial review by the central budget office, these hearings provide an opportunity for departments to explain to the chief executive and the budget staff their requests, how costs were estimated, what the perceived need is, and what community goals and objectives will be affected.

They are treated as managerial staff meetings and as such normally are not open to the public.

Feasibility Study A report of the financial practicality of a proposed project and financing thereof, which may include estimates of revenues that will be generated and a review of the physical, operating, economic, or engineering aspects of the proposed project.

Fiduciary Funds These funds account for resources that governments hold in trust for individuals or other governments.

Fiscal Year A designated 12 month period for budgeting and for record keeping purposes. All the financial transactions within that twelve month period are presented together, to see if revenues cover expenditures.

242

Fixed assets The least liquid of assets such as land, buildings, equipment, and other improvements.

Full-Time Equivalent The number of hours per year that a full time employee is expected to work. Two workers who each work half that number of hours together equal one full time equivalent. The hours of a number of part timers or temporary workers can be added up to see how many full time positions they are equivalent to.

Fund A self-balancing set of accounts. Governmental budgeting and accounting is based on a series of funds, each with separate revenues, expenditures, and balances. Each fund is set up for a separate purpose and each fund balances its assets against liabilities and any residual becomes fund balance.

Fund Balance The difference between a fund’s assets and its liabilities. Portions of the fund balance may be reserved for various purposes such as contingencies or encumbrances at the end of the fiscal year.

GAAP See Generally Accepted Accounting Principles GASB See Governmental Accounting Standards Board.

General Fund The major fund in most governmental units. While other funds tend to be restricted to a single purpose, the general fund is a catch all, for general governmental purposes that are not broken out separately in a single purpose fund. Most basic functions, such as police, fire, and streets, are usually located in the general fund.

General Obligation (GO) Bond A particular kind of bond backed by the full faith and credit of the issuing entity in which the pledge of security to pay back the bond is the government’s ability to raise taxes. This is very secure for the investors, and therefore helps lower borrowing costs. Ad valorem taxes necessary to pay debt service on GO bonds are typically not subject to the constitutional property tax millage limits. Such bonds constitute debts of the issuer and normally require approval by election prior to issuance. In the event of default, the holders of GO bonds have the right to compel a tax or legislative appropriation, by mandamus or injunction, in orde to satisfy the issuer’s obligation.

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) Uniform minimum standards for financial recording and reporting established by the accounting profession through such independent entities as the Governmental Accounting Standards Board.

Impound The discretion of the chief executive to restrict spending during an economic slowdown when revenues fail to keep pace with what was budgeted.

243

Incremental Budget Process Historical shares determine how funds will be allocated among departments and programs.

Infrastructure Basic public investments such as streets, storm drainage, water and sewer lines, street lighting, and sidewalks.

Informed Judgment One of four types of techniques used to project revenues, professional or informed judgment is essential to preparing defensible estimates regardless of what other methodology is used.

Professional judgment comes with experience and careful observation.

Interdepartmental Order (IDO) An internal order between departments and reimbursement for goods and services, usually initiated by the head of an agency.

Interfund Transfers The movement of money from one fund to another in a governmental unit. Interfund transfers are normally governed by rules of what is and is not permissible, and usually have to be approved by the legislative body.

Interim Financial Reports Quarterly or monthly comparison of budgeted amounts with actual amounts of revenues and expenditures to date. These reports provide an important early warning to decision makers of impending overruns in expenditures or shortfalls in revenues.

Internal Service Accounts A system of rationing services that some departments provide to others, by giving the recipient departments budgets to buy service from the provider departments. Because it costs the recipient departments money, presumably they use less of these internally provided services, such as photocopying and printing, automobile repair, and computer services.

Internal Service Funds One or more funds that accounts for the goods and services provided by one department to another within government on a cost-reimbursement basis.

Issuance Authorization, sale, and delivery of a new issue of municipal securities.

Legislative Budget The council or a committee of the governing board receives requests directly from departments and pares them back, with a minimal role for the executive branch.

Level Debt Service An arrangement of serial maturities in which the amount of principal maturing increased at approximately the same rate as the amount of interest declines, resulting in substantially equal annual debt service payments over the life of the bonds.

Line-Item Budget A format for budgeting in which departmental outlays are grouped according the items that will be purchased, one item or groups of items on each line of the budget. See Object of expenditure.

244

Line-Item Veto A rejection by the executive of one item or groups of items in a line-item budget.

Liquidity Usually refers to the ability to convert assets (such as investments) into cash.

Mandate A requirement form a higher level of government that a lower level of government perform some task or perform the task in a particular way or at a particular standard often without compensation from the higher form of government.

Net Revenue The amount of money available after subtracting from gross revenues such costs and expenses as may be provided in a bond contract.

New Issue Bonds offered to investors for the first time.

Note A written, short-term promise of the issuer to repay a specified principal amount on a certain date, together with interest at a stated rate, or according to a formula for determining that rate, payable from a defined source of anticipated revenue. A variety of note types are used according to the anticipated revenue source: Bond Anticipation Notes (BANs), Construction Loan Notes (CLNs), Grant Anticipation Notes (GANs), Revenue Anticipation Notes (RANs), and Tax Anticipation Notes (TANs).

Object of Expenditure A way of grouping and displaying in the budget the items to be purchased.

Commodities would be a major classification; office supplies might be a minor classification. Same as lineitem budgeting.

Obligations See Encumbrances.

Official Statement or Final Official Statement (OS) Document published by the issuer which generally discloses material information on a bond issue, including the purposes of the bond issue, how the bonds will be repaid, and the financial, economic, and demographic characteristics of the issuing government.

Investors may use this information to evaluate the credit quality of the bonds.

Operating Budget The portion of a budget that deals with routinely recurring expenditures, such as salaries, electricity bills for city hall, postage, printing and duplicating, paper supplies, and gasoline for automobiles.

The operating budget is in a sense the opposite of a capital budget, which includes one-time, or non recurring costs for major expenditures of items or projects intended to last a long time. The operating and the capital budget, or a consolidated document may be prepared that has a section devoted to operating expenditures and another to capital.

245

Operating Deficit The amount by which this year’s (or this budget period’s) revenues are exceeded by this year’s (or this budget period’s) expenditures. An operating deficit does no take into account balances left over from prior years that may used to pay off this year’s shortfall.

Pay-As-You-Go Paying for capital projects out of current tax and grant revenues rather than issuing debt to pay for them.

Pay-As-You-Use Incurring debt to pay for capital outlays rather than paying out of current revenues.

Payments in Lieu of Taxes (PILOTS) One method used to decide how much money is appropriate to transfer from enterprises into a government’s general fund using the argument that such payments are in exchange for taxes that would have been paid if the service had been provided by a privately owned firm.

Per Capita Debt The amount of an issuer’s debt divided by population, which is used as an indication of the issuer’s credit position by reference to the proportionate debt borne per resident.

Permanent Funds A category of governmental funds, established by GASBS 34, used to report on funds whose outflow is legally restriced to the earnings, not principal, from the fund for purposes that benefit the government or its citizens.

Planning, Programming, Budgeting System (PBBS) A budget reform that links budgeting with planning and evaluation on a program by program basis. Rather than allocating funds along departmental lines, PPBS organizes budget information around and allocates funds to programs, which are activities with a common goal. PPBS, or program budgeting, sought to introduce more formal economic analysis into budget deliberations by requiring that the benefits and costs of each program be determined and that funds be allocated to those programs providing the greatest net benefits. Very few governments use PPBS today, but emphasis on performance and on outcomes has brought back some of the elements of PPBS. Principal The face amount or par value of a bond or issue of bonds payable on staed dates of maturity.

Productivity The ratio of cost per unit of goods or services produced to quality. Productivity increases when the cost per unit goes down when quality remains constant or increases.

Program Budget See Planning, Programming, Budgeting System.

Public Finance Refers to the financing, either on tax-exempt or taxable basis, by municipalities for various capital and/or operating needs.

Public Hearings Open meetings regarding proposed budget allocations—either operating or capital—that provide citizens an opportunity to voice their views on the merits of proposals.

Ratings Evaluations of the credit quality of notes and bonds usually made by independent rating services, although many financial institutions also rate bonds for their own purposes. Ratings generally measure the probability of the timely repayment of principal and interest on the bonds. Ratings are initially made before issuance and are continuously reviewed and may be amended to reflect changes in the issuer’s credit position. The information required by the ratings agencies varies with each bond issue, but generally includes demographics, debt burden, economic base, finances, and management structure. The information is evaluated and the issue is assigned a letter rating which reflects the creditworthiness of the bonds. The higher the credit rating, the more favorable the effect on the marketability of the bond.

Rainy Day Funds Revenue stabilization reserves that provides resources when revenues decline due to a recession, loss of a major taxpayer, or other event that temporarily results in a loss of tax revenues.

246

Reserve Fund The fund which may be used to pay debt service if the sources of the pledged revenues do not generate sufficient funds to satisfy the debt service requirements. The reserve fund is either funded in whole or in part from the proceeds of the bonds or is allowed to accumulate gradually over a period of years through required payments from the pledged revenues. If the reserve fund is used in whole or in part to pay debt service, the issuer usually is required to replenish the reserve fund from the first available funds or revenues. A typical reserve requirement might be the maximum aggregate annual debt service requirement for any year remaining until the bonds reach maturity. The size and investment of the reserve may be subject to arbitrage regulations.

Reserved Fund Balance That portion of a fund’s fund balance that are not available for appropriation because they have been legally committed to some future use. See Designated Fund Balance and Undesignated Fund Balance.

Reserves for Debt Service An account usually for revenue bonds used to provide funds in the event revenues are insufficient to repay the principal and interest on debt that is coming due in the current year.

Retirement of Debt The payment of principal and interest due to the bondholders.

Salary Savings The reduced expenditures for salaries that result whenever positions remain unfilled for part of a year due to personnel changes. The use of salary savings is a matter that should be clarified in an operating budget policy. Some governments budget salaries net of salary savings; others allow departments to retain any salary savings; still others allow the budget office to capture salary savings for reallocation during the year to other departments or programs.

Special Revenue Funds A type of fund used to account for revenues legally earmarked for a particular purpose. For example, a hotel/motel occupancy tax may be earmarked for tourism and convention development. A Hotel/Motel Tax fund would then account for the revenues and expenditures associated with such purposes.

Special Districts Single or limited purpose units of government formed under state enabling legislation to meet certain local needs not satisfied by existing general purpose governments in a given geographical area. Special districts may be granting taxing powers. An independent special district is on whose governing body is an independent entity and whose budget is established independently of the local governing authority. See Authority.

Take or Pay Contract A sales agreement which requires the purchaser to pay the seller whether or not goods or services are available and, if available, whether or not the purchaser uses them. This type of requirement is generally used in electric power sales contracts which stipulate that payment will be made by the purchasers to the electricity wholesaler whether or not conditioned upon the performance of the wholesaler, the completion or operation of the power project or the use of the goods or services.

Tax or Taxes Compulsory charges levied by a government unit for the purpose of raising revenue. Taxes should be distinguished from special assessments, which are levied according to the actual benefits derived, and from fees which must bear a reasonable relation to the costs of administration or regulation and are imposed under the police power. Tax revenues are used to pay for services or improvements provided for the general public benefit. See Ad Valorem Tax; Excise Tax. Compare Special Assessment.

Tax Base The total property and resources or transactions (as in sales) available for taxation.

Tax Expenditures Abatements, partial or full exemptions, tax credits, deductions or other foregone tax revenues.

Tax Rate The amount of tax stated in terms of a unit of the tax base; for example, 10 mill per dollar of assessed valuation of taxable property.

247

Tax Rate Limit The maximum rate or millage of tax which a local government may levy. This limit may apply to taxes raised for a particular purpose or for all purposes; to a single government, or class of governments, or to all governments operating in a particular area. See Ad Valorem Tax; Tax Rate.

Tax Roll The official list showing the amount of taxes levied against each taxpayer or parcel of property, prepared and authenticated in proper form to warrant the collecting officers to proceed with the enforcement of the tax.

Transfers Funds moved from one account to another or between funds.

Undesignated Fund Balance That portion of a fund’s fund balance that is available for appropriation. See Designated Fund Balance and Reserved Fund Balance.

248
