City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017


City Manager’s Letter It is my privilege to present you with the balanced budget for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2016, and ending June 30, 2017, which totals $225,791,516. The annual budget is the policy document that communicates the financial policies of the City for the fiscal year. The budget is prepared each year with the support and policy input of our elected officials and hard work from our departments to ensure that we are preparing the leanest budget possible while still providing high quality services through excellent service delivery. The recovering economy continued to present a few challenges during the development of the Fiscal Year 2017 (FY 2017) budget; however, as a result of years of fiscal prudence and efficient The Fiscal Year 2017 balanced management of operations, the City of Rock Hill was well positioned to budget maintains the level of respond to those challenges.

service that Rock Hill citizens have grown to appreciate and expect while continuing the City’s tradition of fiscal prudence and efficient operations. The approved budget reflects the City’s priorities as outlined in the Strategic Plan. This budget document provides useful information about the City’s financial and performance plans, goals, and policies.

Factors Affecting This Year’s Budget In preparing the annual budget, several factors greatly impacted the decisionmaking process. A major factor influencing the FY 2017 budget is an ever increasing need for resources to maintain the roadways within the City limits. The City historically invested $300,000 of General Fund dollars to repave roads in addition to the annual C-Fund allocation. In FY 2013, the General Fund portion began increasing, and by FY 2016, using the savings from reduced fuel costs and additional monies generated by a business license cap change initiative for auto dealers and manufacturers, the allocation was increased to $860,000. An additional $300,000 was added to the FY 2017 allocation, bringing the total to $1,160,000. The increased allocation for fullcost paving along with the two new pothole trucks which were funded in FY 2016 have produced positive results, reducing the percentage of city roads considered in poor condition from 12.27% to 10.83%, a trend we expect to continue, given the emphasis placed on this strategic focus area. In addition, providing the 20% local match for Congestion Management/Air Quality (CMAQ) road construction projects also created a challenge for the FY 2017 budget. Since the recession, such air quality improvement projects had been funded at 100%. The intersection of Celanese and India Hook Roads, recently awarded CMAQ funding, will likely bridge three fiscal years. The match requirement in FY 2017 is $300,000; however, we will most likely need to budget $500,000 in FY 2018 & 2019 to cover the remaining cost of this extensive project. To leverage future CMAQ funds, we will need to budget similar amounts annually. With the implementation of these two initiatives alone, 30 percent of the overall increase in annual General Fund revenues this fiscal year was allocated to road improvements. The growth of our community has also created many challenges within our departments. To meet the demands of a growing area where there are more services being provided to more customers, many employees work additional hours each week to ensure we maintain the same high quality level of service. While the city’s population has grown 65.67% over the past 25 years, our workforce has only grown 15.12%. If you exclude public safety, the number of employees actually decreased by 5.85% during that same time period. Despite these growing demands, only 3 new positions are included in the Fiscal Year 2017 budget: a Software Administrator in Police to maintain the many specialized software products and programs required in the department, a City Engineer II in Water Engineering to provide the necessary oversight to manage the capital improvement projects, and an Equipment Operator II in Stormwater to expand our street sweeping program necessary to meet our MS4 permit requirements. The City also continued to focus on business-friendly initiatives this fiscal year. City Management and elected officials continue to meet with the small business leadership group, developers and community members to determine ways the City can best assist businesses. The City continues to offer a 10% discount on business license fees to those who pay on time. Additionally, a local preference ordinance was extended through this budget year that gives an advantage to our local contractors in matching the lowest bid on City projects. Finally, the City is keeping the business-friendly initiative of reimbursing contractors who upsize water and sewer lines.

City Manager’s Letter Strategic Planning Last year, Rock Hill’s City Council looked at new data collected from citizen, business & employee surveys, and working with staff, developed a set of revised strategic initiatives and a strategic plan, which was adopted on May 26, 2015, and will guide the City through June 30, 2018, at which time a new strategic plan will be adopted. Our strategic plan provides a blueprint for the City’s future by outlining ambitions, setting priorities, and providing performance targets to ensure adequate progress toward making the vision a reality. As Rock Hill is a city committed to quality, this year’s budget continues to support providing quality services, developing quality places, and fostering a quality community. Quality Services focuses on the core governmental functions that the City of Rock Hill provides. These include initiatives like police, fire, public works, parks, electric, water and sewer services. However, we don’t just provide these basic services, we do so in a way that emphasizes efficiency, effectiveness, and affordability for our customers. Quality Places focuses on developing and sustaining exceptional locations throughout our City. Places to work, live, and play add to the appeal of Rock Hill. This includes everything from business parks to sports tourism facilities. In the development of City-led projects, input is solicited from civic, business, political, and cultural leaders. Whenever possible, the City looks for public-private partnerships to help facilitate quality places throughout our City. Quality Community is about enhancing the overall quality of life for Rock Hill citizens through partnerships and collaboration. The City is intent on engaging citizens and building public trust. Additional information on the Strategic Plan can be found in the Performance Budget section of this document. Funding by Strategic Initiative Our approved budget distributes Fiscal Year 2017 financial resources by departments and across strategic initiatives in the following manner: General Government Office of Management Human Resources Planning & Develop.

City Manager’s Letter Financial reality on budget process As with any budget process, there are certain financial limitations that are taken into account. The City’s financial policies govern the entire budget process. For example, the City is very cognizant of our General Fund debt margin of 8%. With this in mind, there have been certain capital projects that the City chose to fund from the operating budget instead of issuing debt. Another example of how the City’s financial policies govern the budget process is with our operating transfer policy. The City uses a formula that presupposes that utility services would have been provided by a privately-owned utility instead of the City’s publicly-owned utility. Such utility would have paid municipal ad valorem taxes and a franchise fee to the General Fund of the City, and the utility’s investors would have been entitled to a return on their investment. For this reason, the City has established a policy guideline regarding franchise fees, payments in lieu of taxes, rates of return and operating transfers from the utility system. Both the FY 2017 and FY 2018 budgets strictly adhere to these types of financial policies. A Few Budget Highlights:

FY 2014 and 2015 business license revenues were impacted by an audit of non -compliant businesses resulting in collection of multiple years in revenues. While business recruitment remained strong this fiscal year, collections returned to single-year increments, thus stabilizing. There has also been modest growth in real Fiscal Year and personal property taxes. While electric, water, and wastewater revenues were not as strong as projected in recent years due to mild weather patterns, FY 2016 produced electric revenues that were on target, while water and wastewater actually exceeded budget. Given some improvements in the economy, for the fifth time in seven years, the approved FY 2017 budget includes a modified pay-for-performance base wage increase for employees. Financial prudence requires us to carefully evaluate our ability to sustain employee pay-for-performance increases for FY 2018. Additionally, fiscal years 2017 and 2018 budgets reflect a continued restoration of the City’s established equipment and vehicle replacement schedule. General Fund The approved FY 2017 General Fund budget totals $59,900,249, an increase of 3.8% when compared to last fiscal year’s approved budget. The proposed FY 2018 General Fund budget totals $61,788,144, a 3.2% increase when compared to FY 2017. Taxpayer Concentration 2013-2016

City Manager’s Letter Utility Enterprise Fund The Utility Enterprise Fund consists of the electric, water, wastewater, stormwater and water/wastewater impact fee funds. Fiscal Year 2017 expenditures for the Utility Enterprise Fund total $155,763,305, a 5.6% increase over last year’s approved budget. The proposed 2018 budget is $163,298,505 which represents a 4.8% increase over Fiscal Year 2017. Maintaining aging infrastructure, expanding infrastructure into growing areas, and using technology to enhance service delivery are priorities for our Utility Fund. In Fiscal Year 2017 alone, the combined utility system will issue $94 million in new debt to expand our electric, water and wastewater facilities, with an anticipated total of $340 million going towards expansion over the next ten years ($22 million—electric, $62 million—water, $256 million— wastewater). The Fiscal Year 2017 approved budget includes a 1.5% electric rate increase to cover electric system capital improvements. This increase is effective July 1, 2016, and represents a $1.93 increase in the average residential customer’s monthly utility bill. Over the past twenty years, the City’s electric system has absorbed over $208 million worth of rate increases from PMPA. Although we seek to minimize rate increases of any kind to our citizens, this year’s rate increase was a necessity to keep our system in good standing and to fund the additional $22 million in capital improvements needed. The Fiscal Year 2017 budget also includes a water and wastewater rate restructure. The restructure decreased the water base charge and implemented tiers based on consumption to reflect industry standards. The wastewater base was also decreased with an increase to the volumetric charge to fund wastewater capital projects. The restructure is revenue-neutral for our average residential customer inside the city limits, resulting in a $0.77 net decrease in water and a $0.73 increase for wastewater. Additionally, there is a stormwater rate increase included in this budget to fund annual improvements to neighborhood stormwater systems, and will result in an increase of $0.51 for the average residential customer. Commercial stormwater rate increases will fund an estimated $8 million of additional major stormwater projects identified in the stormwater master plan. The proposed Fiscal Year 2018 budget includes a 1% electric rate increase to cover a projected wholesale power rate increase, along with a combined base and volumetric increase of 8.79% for water and a 3% base and volumetric wastewater rate increase to cover additional system capital improvements as outlined in our newly revised utility CIP. Conclusion Despite the challenges presented with balancing the Fiscal Year 2017 and Fiscal Year 2018 budgets, Rock Hill’s tradition of fiscal prudence has allowed us to continue with progress on accomplishing the goals outlined in the Strategic Plan and enhancing the overall quality of service delivery to our community. I invite you to monitor our financial and strategic plan progress throughout the year by visiting the City’s performance and financial dashboards located on the City’s transparency webpage— cityofrockhill.com/transparency.

Budget Process Each year, the City of Rock Hill’s budget is developed in conjunction with the Mayor and City Council, the Office of Management, Finance, and all other city departments, with opportunities for citizen feedback. Budget Process Developing the Budget Strategic planning sessions precede the official budget process. During these sessions, Council and staff discuss goals and priorities. Every three years these goals and priorities are evaluated and modified extensively with only minor adjustments occurring in the other years. Information from these sessions are then carried over to the budgeting process. The budget process begins in January with a special, comprehensive work session in which the Office of Management and Finance meet with all departments to discuss current and future trends, needs, and goals of the City. During this meeting, the City’s budget calendar is reviewed. Departments are then responsible for preparing requests for programs, projects, and initiatives they would like to have considered for the upcoming budget year. The Strategic Plan serves as a guide by which each department prepares its expenditure requests. During this time, Finance prepares revenue estimates for both the current and upcoming two fiscal years. Each department meets individually with the Office of Management and Finance to review program budgets and expenditure requests. During these meetings, the goals of each department are reviewed and expenditure requests are evaluated to determine their alignment with the strategic goals and the fiscal resources necessary to fund the requests.

20

Following these meetings, the Office of Management and Finance meet to prepare a draft budget for submission to City Council being sure that the priorities and goals discussed in the strategic planning sessions are appropriately reflected in the recommended budget. This draft budget is submitted to the Mayor and Council at formal budget workshops in April and May. Adopting the Budget The public has an opportunity to comment on the budget during the first and second reading of the ordinance to adopt the budget. A public hearing and two readings are required for formal adoption of the budget. State law requires the City Council to adopt a balanced budget, in which current revenues equal current expenditures, prior to June 30 of each year. Amendments to the budget are allowable under South Carolina law and are made throughout the year as necessary. The budget calendar is provided on the following page. Two-Year Budgeting The City of Rock Hill uses a two-year budgeting process with the governing body approving the year one budget and being made aware of the projected budget for year two. The two-year budgeting process has several benefits; one of the most obvious benefits is demonstrating how financial decisions in one year affects the future.

City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017


Financial Policies & Strategies Rock Hill budget and financial polices and strategies are governed by South Carolina state law, the City Charter, and generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). These laws, strategies, principles, and policies describe ways to amend the budget after adoption, provide for budget controls and budget reporting, and identify appropriate methods for budgeting, accounting, and reporting. Budget Amendments The City Manager is authorized to transfer any sum from one budget line item to another, or from one department or division to another department or division; provided, however, that no such transfer shall (1) be made from one fund to another fund, (2) conflict with any existing Bond Ordinance, or (3) conflict with any previously adopted policy of the City Council. Any change in the budget which would increase or decrease the total of all authorized expenditures must be approved by City Council. Budget Controls & Reporting All excess material revenue collected by the City of Rock Hill that exceeds the projected budget revenue figure from a specific revenue category for each fiscal reporting period must be reported to City Council on a monthly basis. The expenditure of any and all excess revenue will be at Council’s discretion and cannot be utilized within the City budget without Council’s approval.

Enterprise Fund Transfers & Year Ending Condition In addition to building cash reserves, the City has also successfully met its goal of reducing the amount of transfers from the Enterprise Fund to the General Fund. By aggressively containing costs in General Fund departments and adhering to the established financial policies, the City has been able to reduce the General Fund’s dependency on the utilities fund transfer. From a 1992 high of covering 42% of general fund expenditures, the Fiscal Year 2017 budgeted utilities transfer adheres to the policy and covers 12.43% ($7,447,795) of general fund expenditures.

Financial Policies & Strategies Budgetary & Accounting Systems The accounting policies of the City of Rock Hill conform to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as applicable to governmental units. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. The following is a summary of the more significant policies applicable to revenues and expenditures. Fund Accounting The accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds and account groups, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. Fund accounting is designed to demonstrate legal compliance and to aid financial management by segregating transactions related to certain government functions or activities. The operations of each fund are accounted for with a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues and expenditures or expenses, as appropriate. Funds Governmental Funds are used to account for all or most of a government's general activities. Examples of these activities include public safety, parks, and sanitation services. These revenues come from property taxes, user fees, licenses, and permits. Within the category of Governmental Funds, Rock Hill maintains General, Special Revenue, and Capital Projects Funds. General Fund- The General Fund is the City's general operating fund and is used to account for all financial transactions except those required to be accounted for in another fund. Principle sources of revenue are property taxes, licenses and permits, intergovernmental revenues, and sanitation service charges. The expenditures in the General Fund are administration, budget, finance, economic development, fleet maintenance, public safety, general government, public works, housing authority, and parks and recreation. Special Revenue Fund- The Special Revenue Fund is used to account for the proceeds from specific revenue sources (other than funding for major capital projects) that are legally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes. The City does not adopt a budget for the Special Revenue Fund because it primarily serves as a pass-through for federal grants. Capital Projects Fund- The Capital Projects Fund accounts for financial resources, including bond proceeds and intergovernmental grants, used for the acquisition, construction, or improvement of major general government facilities. The City does not adopt a formal budget for the Capital Projects Fund, although particular projects are detailed within this budget in the "Bond Schedule" section. Enterprise Funds are used to account for the business-type activities of a government. These are activities which are financed and operated in a manner where the intent of the governing body is that the costs (expenses, including depreciation) of providing goods and services to the general public on a continuing basis be financed or recovered primarily through user charges. The funds include the Electric, Water, Wastewater, Stormwater, and Impact Fee funds. Basis of Accounting The accounting and financial reporting applied to a fund are determined by its measurement focus. All governmental funds are accounted for using a current financial resources measurement focus. Only current assets and current liabilities generally are included on the balance sheet. Governmental fund revenues and expenditures are recognized on the modified accrual basis. Revenues are deemed susceptible to accrual and are recognized in the period when they become measurable and available. Expenditures are recognized when the fund liability is incurred, except principal and interest on general long-term debt which is recognized when due or when funds have been made available for payment. The proprietary fund is accounted for on a flow of economic resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, all assets and liabilities associated with the operation of these funds are included on the balance sheet. Unlike modified accrual basis, this basis includes depreciation, amortization, capital assets donated by private parties, and capital asset purchases are treated as expenses. Fund equity is segregated into contributed capital and retained earnings components. Proprietary fund-type operating statements present increases (revenues) and decreases (expenses) in net total assets.

City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017


Financial Policies & Strategies Budgetary & Accounting Systems (continued) Basis of Budgeting In accordance with the General Statutes of the State of South Carolina, the City Council is required by state statute to adopt an annual balanced budget ordinance for the Combined General and Enterprise Operating Funds prior to July 1. Project ordinances are adopted for the Special Revenue and Capital Projects Funds when necessary. All budgets are prepared using the modified accrual basis of accounting. City Council has the authority to amend the budget ordinance. Appropriations lapse at the end of the budget year. Appropriations are authorized in the annual budget ordinance generally at the department level. The legal level of budgetary control is at the fund level; however, in practice, the City maintains control at the department level. Administrative control is further maintained through more detailed line-item budgets. The City adopts this budget for the General Fund (Fund 500) and the Enterprise Funds (Fund 700 series).

*Year of Reassessment ^ Recommended

General Property Taxes General property taxes account for 41% of General Fund revenue in the Fiscal Year 2017 budget and 40% in the Fiscal Year 2018 proposed budget. South Carolina law allows local governments to levy taxes on real and personal property valuations as assessed and equalized according to statutory guidelines (Code of Laws of South Carolina, Chapter 12, Article 3, Section 38 12-43-220). The tax rate remains at 93.5 mils in the adopted Fiscal Year 2017 and recommended Fiscal Year 2018 budgets.

Fiscal Year

Additional History The local tax rate remained steady at 100 mils until 1998 when it was increased to 104 mils to meet the cost of Public Safety initiatives. An additional two mil tax increase was included in the Fiscal Year 2001 budget. Reassessment was completed by York County and the rollback millage, with a two mill rate increase, brought the City’s total millage for Fiscal Year 2002 down to 98 mils. A four mill tax increase was included in the Fiscal Year 2005 budget to cover the cost of adding Firefighters to the new fire station. In Fiscal Year 2007, a three mill tax increase funded the addition of a Street Crimes Unit in the Police Department and construction of a new fire station. In Fiscal Year 2012, the tax rate was decreased to 93.5 mils to provide a revenue neutral budget as a result of reassessment. Charges for Services

Operating Transfers

Charges for services, such as sanitation fees, cemetery fees, and recreation fees, significantly support many city government operations. In Fiscal Year 2017, charges for services represent approximately 20% of total General Fund revenue. Revenue projections are based on historical trend analysis of each revenue account and additional information provided by city departments.

The operating transfer is comprised of franchise fees, payments in lieu of taxes, and rates of return that are levied on the City’s publicly-owned utility as though it were privately held. The City has a financial policy, discussed on page 243, that governs operating transfers. Operating transfers account for 12% of all General Fund revenue in fiscal year 2017 and 13% of all General Fund revenue in fiscal year 2018.

City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017


Expenditure Summary Expenditure Observations General Fund General Fund departments continue to control costs to reduce the dependency on the Enterprise Fund transfer. The transfer for Fiscal Year 2017 covers approximately 12.43% of General Fund expenses, down from as much as 42% in 1990. General Fund expenditures for Fiscal Year 2017 are budgeted at $59,900,249, a 3.85% increase when compared to Fiscal Year 2016. Personnel expenditures (salaries and salary additives) make up 66% of the total general fund Rock Hill Street Division re-surfacing program in action, resulting in 5 expenditures ($42.2 million). The Fiscal center-line miles resurfaced in 2016 Year 2017 budget reflects a modified pay for-performance program with a 1.5% performance base compensation wage increase. Personnel expenses have also increased as a result of increasing health costs. The approved Fiscal Year 2017 budget reflects a 39.4% increase in capital spending when compared to Fiscal Year 2016, showing the City’s continued commitment to investing in infrastructure and economic development projects including Knowledge Park, and Bleachery area developments. Additionally, the Fiscal Year 2017 budget includes replacing vehicles according to our equipment replacement program totaling over $4.26 million.

Enterprise Funds Despite the current challenges, the outlook for our region is still favorable, and the City continues to plan for the future. The enterprise fund outlook includes $349 million in capital projects in the Electric, Water, Wastewater, and Stormwater Funds over the next ten years. Many of these projects will be funded from rate increases in the corresponding funds. The others will be funded with revenue bonds. The Capital Improvement Plan section provides more information on these projects. Enterprise Fund expenditures are budgeted at $155,763,304, a 5.6% increase compared to Fiscal Year 2016. Similar to the General Fund, personnel expenditures have greatly increased with healthcare costs and the modified employee pay-for-performance program. The Fiscal Year 2017 approved budget includes a 1.5% electric rate increase to cover electric system capital improvements as well as a water and wastewater rate restructure. The restructure decreases the water base charge and implements tiers based on consumption to reflect industry standards. The wastewater base also decreases with an increase to the volumetric charge to fund wastewater capital projects. The restructure is revenue-neutral for our average residential customer.

Performance Budget Overview Introduction to Performance Budgets This section of the budget document details how the City of Rock Hill will allocate financial and personnel resources. The City’s Strategic Plan assists with the allocation of resources by reminding City leaders and staff of the established priorities, consequently improving the City’s ability to accomplish its goals. There are four sub-sections included in the Performance Budget section: FY2016 Year-End Performance Results Summary—provides a high level summary of the City’s progress at accomplishing performance goals that were due within Fiscal Year 2016. The full report is available at cityofrockhill.com/transparency.

Performance Budgets— provides high level summaries of performance measurement, expenditure, and personnel information for departments and divisions. FY2016—FY2018 Strategic Plan—while the performance budget section highlights a few performance measures, the Strategic Plan section provides the City’s official Strategic Plan in its entirety. Our Strategic Plan and Performance Dashboard earned the International City/County Management Association (ICMA) 2016 Certificate of Excellence for Performance Management.

Prior to Fiscal Year 2014, Division 2415 was known as Hometown Security. In FY2014, it was given a new name, General Services. A part of this re-organization was moving four call center employees from Public Services Administration and the Key Accounts Manager to this new division. In FY2015, General Services also housed the newly created Project Management Team, which became a separate division in FY2016. In Fiscal Year 2017, General Services became a separate department with divisions in both the General Fund and Electric Fund.

City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017


Debt Service As the City’s capital needs have grown, varied financing models have been implemented to address the need for capital investment while preserving the City’s financial health. These financial models include using operating funds and issuing bonds to pay for capital projects. The bonds have been used to fund both revenue-producing facilities and general purpose facilities. As of July 1, 2016, the City of Rock Hill’s total principal bond debt service outstanding was $208,458,585, most of which consists of Revenue Bonds ($116,900,194), Tax Increment Financing ($30,436,737) and Hospitality Tax Bonds ($20,575,000).

Legal Debt Margin The City has a legal debt limit of 8% of the total assessed value. The City is authorized by state statute to exceed the legal debt margin if the additional debt is approved by the City’s citizens.

Future Debt In Fiscal Year 2017, the City plans to issue $94 million in a Combined Utility Revenue Bond to complete the design for the expansion of the existing wastewater plant facilities, to construct an expansion of the water filter plant from 36 to 48 MGD and to make capital improvements to our electric system. Financing for the FY2017 Equipment Lease Purchase, totaling $4.3 million, was finalized in mid-September to fund vehicle replacements and needed equipment. A second equipment lease purchase for $10 million is expected later in the year to fund the second phase of the AMI Pilot program. Beginning in Fiscal Year 2017 and continuing over the next ten years, the City plans to issue approximately $340 million in debt for the purpose of completing improvements and additions for the City’s Combined Utility System. The expansion of the current water and wastewater facilities, along with electric infrastructure enhancements, will be financed through Utility Revenue Bonds. These improvements are needed not only to manage the current demand but also the anticipated demand on our system due to growth. Utility system rate increases between 2017 and 2024 will help service the future debt and continue to fund pay-as-yougo projects. As the cost of the Utility System improvements have drastically increased in the last few years, the City will continue to monitor the need for further rate increases to help pay the anticipated debt service. Additionally, the City plans to issue approximately $3.422 million in General Obligation Bonds to fund the construction of a Fire Training Tower and Burn Building and the implementation of a Quiet Zone at the rail crossings of W. Main and W. White Streets.

Debt Service Revenue Bonds All revenue bonds are payable from the net revenues of the City’s combined utility system. The various bond indentures contain significant limitations and restrictions on annual debt service requirements and minimum revenue bond coverage. Revenue bond repayment is generally structured so that interest is payable semi-annually on the first of January and July. Principal payments are paid in a lump sum on the first of January. The City is in compliance with all such significant financial limitations and restrictions. Highlights of outstanding Utility Revenue Bonds consist of:  In October 2009, the City issued $44,600,000 in Utility System Revenue Bonds. The bonds were issued to fund improvements to the electric, water and wastewater systems and to refund the outstanding Combined Utility System Revenue Bond Anticipation Notes, Series 2008 and Revenue Bonds 1998C, 2000A, and 2000C.  In December 2010, the City issued $13 million in Bond Anticipation Notes. The revenue was used to fund the completion of the City’s New Operations Center, which houses the City’s public works and utilities employees, as well as the City’s equipment and fleet.  In 2012, the City refinanced $66,230,000 of old Utility System Revenue Bonds, including Series 2003A, 2008A and 2011 Combined Utility Revenue Bond Anticipation Note, in order to take advantage of lower interest rates.  In 2013, the City refinanced $20 million of old Utility System Revenue Bonds in order to take advantage of lower interest rates. The City also issued $9 million in new money to purchase three additional substations, paint the Herlong Tank, replacement of the Myrtle Dr. waterline and the Bleachery Outfall project.  In 2014, two State Revolving Fund (SRF) loans were secured: $4,380,667 to fund a water plant high service pumping modification and $4,956,563 to fund construction of the Laurel Street water line and elevated tank replacement.

Debt Service Tax Increment Financing BondsTaxes generated from the construction of businesses in these areas are being used to retire the debt on these bonds. To the extent that debt service requirements on the bonds exceed the incremental property taxes revenues, utility net revenues are pledged. Currently, Rock Hill has three Tax Increment Bond areas: Downtown, Textile Corridor, and Red River. The debt service requirements for these three tax increment districts will be met through the construction of businesses and utilities generated by those businesses. The debt service payments for each TIF bond are due at different times throughout the year. Highlights of outstanding Tax Increment Bonds:      

Series 2012A, outstanding principal of $2,525,000. Series 2013A, outstanding principal of $6,315,000. Series 2013B, outstanding principal of $3,200,000. Series 2014, outstanding principal of $2,905,000. Series 2015, outstanding principal of $8,356,000. Series 2015B, outstanding principal of $7,021,000.

The 2013A and 2013B Tax Increment Financed Bonds were issued for the building of Fountain Park and the associated parking deck in the heart of Downtown Rock Hill. The Series 2014 was a refinancing of the 2011A Textile TIF and the Series 2015 was a refinancing of the 2009 Red River TIF, both which were done in order to take advantage of lower interest rates. The 2015B Tax Increment Financed Bonds were issued to construct major roads in the next phase of the Riverwalk Development.

City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017


Debt Service Equipment Lease Purchase Each fiscal year, the City has entered into a larger lease-purchase agreement for several cars and trucks. This continues to be a favorable method of vehicle and equipment acquisition. This type of debt is incurred on an annual basis in order to maintain our fleet according to a replacement schedule. Typically, vehicles that are financed in this way are at least $30,000 and have an estimated useful life of at least three years. Recently, the City has refinanced some older lease purchase deals in order to take advantage of lower interest rates. City Council approved the execution of an Equipment Lease Purchase in mid-September; however, the bid is still outstanding and will not be included in this year’s budget document.

Capital Improvement Plan Enterprise Funds Rate Plan Past Rate Increases In the 2000’s, the City began proactively planning for future plant expansions for water and wastewater treatment. Originally, the plant expansions were planned for Fiscal Year 2013. Knowing that the plant expansions would be very expensive, the City created a plan in order to have small, incremental rate increases over many years. These increases were designed to avoid rate shock to our customers by raising the necessary funding to pay the ultimate debt service over time. Over the course of time, however, the projected date for the large bond issuance for water and wastewater plant expansions slipped. This was due to a number of reasons. One of the biggest factors was weak revenue growth. Growth in electric revenues was hampered by yearly purchased power increases (upwards of 6.7% in the last few years). Additionally, water revenues began declining due to a mentality shift in water consumption. For three years, from 2007 to 2010, the City was in a drought, and the citizens learned conservation techniques. Equally, wastewater growth was very mild. The plant expansions were also delayed due to a greater cost, which included unexpected inflation. Additional state and federal regulations also increased the cost. Estimated costs for expansion of our facilities, all improvements needed to manage the anticipated demand on our system due to growth, continued to climb, making a different approach to funding necessary. During 2015, a consultant was hired to complete a rate study which provided a proposal on how to best accommodate the needs of the system in a way that was equitable to our customers. Proposed Rate Increases In preparing for future debt service, City leaders wanted to ensure there was a reasonable plan for generating more revenue. The schedule included on the next page shows rate increase proposals in order to fund future debt service. In Fiscal Year 2017 alone, the combined utility system will issue $94 million in new debt to expand our electric, water and wastewater facilities, with an anticipated total of $340 million going towards expansion over the next ten years ($22 million—electric, $62 million—water, $256 million—wastewater). Beginning in Fiscal Year 2017, a water and wastewater rate restructure initially decreases the water base charge and implements tiers based on consumption to reflect industry standards. A wastewater base decrease with an increase to the volumetric charge is also implemented. Combining higher rates for higher consumption with increases to impact fees for new development, the approach puts more of the cost of expanding the system on those responsible for the growth of the system. The combined base and volumetric charge for water actually resulted in a 3.96% decrease for the average residential customer in FY 2017. Currently, the combined base and volumetric increase for water is projected at 8.79% in FY 2018, 5.91% in FY 2019, 7.35% in FY 2020 and 2.17% in FY 2022. The combined base and volumetric charge for wastewater is 1.85% in FY 2017 but is projected at 3% each year through FY 2024. The FY 2017 budget includes a 1.5% electric rate increase to cover electric system capital improvements; however, future budgets only include projected wholesale power rate increases, which range from 1% to 2.5% each year.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN Fiscal Year 2017-2021 196

City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017


Capital Improvement Plan Capital Improvement Plan City of Rock Hill The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is the City’s comprehensive multi-year plan for the development of the City’s capital facilities, infrastructure and improvements. The City defines a capital item as all vehicles, improvements and projects with a total cost of more than $100,000 over the life of the project. This document outlines those items classified by this definition that are expected over the next five years, between Fiscal Year 2017 (FY2017) and Fiscal Year 2021 (FY2021). The purpose of the plan is to ensure that capital improvements will be made when and where they are needed, and that the City will have the funds to pay for and maintain them. Each year, projects are reviewed for need, cost and priority. Although the plan does not appropriate financial resources, it does give our leaders relevant information to make informed decisions on acceptance and priority of these requests. It is important to note that this document is ever changing as priorities shift, unexpected circumstances arise and new technologies are developed, the City must adapt the capital plan to provide the Quality our citizens expect. The first year of the CIP is the only year that is budgeted. The remaining four years are for planning purposes and funding is not guaranteed to occur in the year planned.

Development of the Plan The development of the Capital Plan is driven by two key study plans conducted within the City, the Comprehensive Plan and the Strategic Plan. The City currently operates using a plan titled Focus 2020 as its guide. The Comprehensive Plan for the City of Rock Hill is the long-range, visionary document outlining the future vision for Rock Hill. It includes an evaluation of trends and existing conditions, defines community strengths and challenges, and provides recommendations to address those challenges. Decision-makers consider the plan when developing department-specific goals and tasks for the Strategic Plan and when finalizing the Capital Improvement Plan and annual budget. The Planning Commission evaluates the consistency of development proposals against the plan. All local governments are required to develop a Comprehensive Plan and must review the plan at least every five years and update it at least every ten. Focus 2020 is the working Comprehensive Plan for the City of Rock Hill. It includes a summary of existing conditions and background information by element, but focuses on documenting the core challenges facing the City, offering recommendations to help address the core challenges, and illustrating how addressing the core challenges helps reinforce the City's core values. The core values and core challenges provide high-level guidance to decision makers when making decisions related to growth and development, public facility investment, land use regulation, economic development initiatives, and the annual budget. It is these core values that are key to developing those initiatives found in the City’s Strategic Plan. The City’s Strategic Plan is an active document, referred to daily by staff at all levels of the organization, and at the heart of each day’s work. It serves as a roadmap to guide us from vision to reality. The City has utilized strategic planning as the primary method to align resources with predetermined initiatives. The current strategic plan, FY16-18 Strategic Plan is the City’s 5th version.

Capital Improvement Plan The City’s strategic plan is updated every three years. A number of important steps are undertaken to ensure the plan fairly represents the concerns of our stakeholders. The first step in developing the new strategic plan is to administer a citizens’ survey. The citizens’ survey is conducted by an independent, third party in which residents are randomly selected to provide ratings regarding everything from service delivery to support for specific projects. The third party also completes focus groups that provide the City a greater understanding of resident perceptions and opinions. Following the citizen input, the City sends a survey to local business owners. This internally created and facilitated survey seeks to identify businesses’ opinions and perceptions. From this survey the City gains insight into concerns that businesses have in relation to public services and regulation. Additionally, we survey our employees to gauge their opinions about topics like customer service, safety, and communications. Employee support of the City’s strategic plan is vital to the success of our future goals. The combined input of these key stakeholders provides the basis for our strategic plan. Since the Strategic Plan is a living document, the City is committed to providing continuing updates on our progress in biannual reports. The Comprehensive Plan and Strategic Plan guide the formation not only of the capital plan, but also the budget and all work programs. Based on these documents, decisions are made on allocation of current and future resources and financing mechanisms to achieve these goals in the most efficient and effective means possible.

Impact of the CIP on the Operating Budget The City’s operating budget is directly affected by the CIP. Many of the new capital improvements result in ongoing expenses for routine operation, repair and maintenance upon completion or acquisition. Additionally, there are some capital projects that may result in a positive impact on operating revenue. By identifying these impacts, funds may be allocated to operations or improvements in other projects. Operating impacts are carefully considered in deciding which projects move forward and the timing of such because of budgetary implications. For this reason, projects typically are staggered over time. Also, please note that because of capital projects in the CIP are valued at $100,000, some operating budget capital items with values under $100,000 will not show on the CIP schedule but may be included in the capital expense line item of the Operating Budget.

Classification of Improvements This report classifies capital projects/purchases as either routine or significant. Those classified as significant will include a description of the project along with its financial impact on the Operating Budget. Routine items are those that are expected to occur as part of normal business with a cost of less than $500,000. Unless noted as significant, projects are considered routine. For those projects noted as significant projects, these are projects with a total cost of more than $500,000 over the life of the project. Also, generally, significant projects are also considered non-routine as their life span is typically longer than one year. All vehicles are considered routine projects due to the fact that their useful life is on a planned schedule, which is typically between 2 and 10 years.

Significant Projects Burn Building & Training Tower Renovation: This project is in preparation of the City’s assumption of operations at the facility that had been owned by the City, but operated by York County. In order to effectively operate this facility as a sole source training facility for the City’s Fire Department, a major renovation of the Training Tower is needed and demolition and reconstruction of a burn building that fully incorporates characteristics of current architecture technologies for effective training scenarios is needed to insure that the department maintains its current ISO 1 rating. Construction and Operation of Station 7: This project is in response to geographic and population growth of the City. By strategically locating each existing and future Fire Stations, the City is most effectively able to serve current and future citizens with fire and emergency response needs. The final location of this station will be determined based upon household growth and historical fire response geographic information.

Significant Projects Body Worn Cameras, Mobile Video Systems, Tasers, etc. – While the City Police Department has had mobile video

systems and tasers at their disposal for some time, recent State legislation regarding body cameras and the significant role this tool will play in assuring citizens of the quality of services the department provides to citizens makes this project a priority that the City feels cannot afford to wait for full State funding. The department will also see financial benefit by purchasing new mobile video equipment and tasers simultaneously with the body cameras. Additionally, the implementation of body cameras as part of routine police work will require approximately $250,000 in operating expenditures annually to securely store the collected data. Apex Radio Replacement for Obsolescence – This project is to replace the complete public safety radio system within the City. Listed on this page is the portion attributable to the Police Department. The system currently being used was purchased in 2006. The manufacturer will no longer offer support for maintenance and replacement parts in 2019. This project will be funded by a capital equipment lease.

Significant Projects Cherrry Park Various Upgrade Projects: These projects totaling $3,000,000 are to do significant upgrades to Cherry Park, the cornerstone to the City’s park system, built in 1985. These upgrades, in addition to the Hargett Park Athletic Field Improvements will ensure that the park remains home to many national, regional, state and local baseball and softball tournaments. Criterium Course and Parking: The new facility will complement the current cycling facilities at Riverwalk including 7 miles of single track mountain bike trails, the Giordana Velodrome and the Novant Health BMX Supercross Track. Upon its completion, work on Riverwalk’s final cycling venue — a Cyclocross Course that challenges both cycling and running skills via off-road obstacles — will commence. With the five USA Cycling disciplines offered in one location, Riverwalk’s mix of competitive venues will continue to draw cyclists from around the world.

Capital Improvement Plan Parks, Recreation and Tourism Department River Park Canoe/Kayak Launch and Riverwalk Trail Washrooms/Parking: To further enhance the attraction to Rock Hill’s Sports Tourism Community, the addition of these facilities will connect the City’s two Catawba River front facilities and offer attendees more access and comfort during their visit. Trails and Greenway: This will be to extend the existing trail system within the City of Rock Hill, connecting to the regional trail system. Future Regional Park (South Rock Hill) and Future Regional Park (India Hook): Thess will be additional parks to serve expanding neighborhoods and population in the southern portions of the City and in the north western portion of the City. Annually, the operation of these parks is estimated to be $635,000 and $620,000 in additional personnel costs. Cyclocross: A form of racing that includes paved and off-road trails with obstacles and steep inclines, cyclocross challenges the rider’s cycling and running skills. Riders dismount, carry the bike and remount numerous times. Cyclocross is a challenging mix of on- and off-road training and racing with obstacles such as sand traps, berms, barriers and stairs that occasionally requires a rider to carry the bicycle on parts of the course. A cyclocross course at the Rock Hill Outdoor Center would be designed to be reconfigured over time and utilize existing cycling amenities for portions of the course. Rock Hill’s Cyclocross trails will provide exciting racing and training opportunities for neighborhood and local events and also provide a venue for national caliber races. Spectators will revel in the action as riders traverse the dynamic course. What started in Europe as a fall and winter training regimen for road cyclists has emerged into a competitive sport in its own right.

City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017


Capital Improvement Plan Stormwater Department Significant Projects A 2013 study of the City Stormwater system identified a list of more than 110 projects within the City that potentially require upgrades and/or further detailed study. The list was reviewed by Council, Management, the Stormwater Advisory Board, and Staff to prioritize these projects with an estimated cost to mitigate of over $70,000,000. Based on these priorities, projects located on City maintained streets were given top priority followed by streets maintained by other entities or privately owned and finally streets outside the city limits but within the study area. After development of the list, further investigation was performed to determine if the finished floor of identified homes within the flood prone areas would be affected during a flood event to further refine the priorities based on actual interior house flooding. In 2016, the top 4 projects on the list were completed with plans for projects 5-9 to be completed in 2017 and project 10 & 11 to be completed in 2018. Several SCDOT maintained streets on the list are currently being constructed or designed in conjunction with roadway improvement projects.

Significant Projects Capital Improvement Projects: Because of the extensive ongoing maintenance expense required to ensure the reliability of the utility system for consumers, for purposes of the capital plan, only those items that are required to upgrade and extend the electric system are considered to be significant. Because of this distinction, each item in the capital improvements projects is considered significant, and as such a description is listed for each individual item. AMI System: This project is to implement an Automated Meter Infrastructure system into the utility system to access and read customer electric meters, manage electric distribution through transformers and to allow customer time of use pricing to gain efficiencies in purchased power by encouraging consumption patterns to more evenly distribute power demand.

City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017


Capital Improvement Plan Wastewater Department Significant Projects Capital Improvement Projects: Because of the extensive ongoing maintenance expense required to ensure the reliability of the utility system for consumers, for purposes of the capital plan, only those items that are required to upgrade and extend the water system are considered to be significant. In the Wastewater System, the expansion of the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) capacity from 36 million gallons per day to 48 million gallons per day of processing is significant.

The City will expand the capacity of its wastewater treatment plant from 36 to 48 mgd to meet consumer demands.

AMI System: This project is to implement an Automated Meter Infrastructure system into the utility system to access and read customer water meters. Water meter consumption is the basis for billing consumer consumption of wastewater services. With this system, the City’s accuracy of both water and wastewater consumption will be improved and revenue maximized.

City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017


Appendix Financial Policies The City of Rock Hill has developed a comprehensive set of financial policies that are consistent with the City’s goals and objectives. Specific attention has been given to make sure that these policies are both consistent and relationally sound. Financial policies are an integral part of the development of service, capital, and financial plans and the budget. They provide the basis for decision-making and continue Rock Hill’s tradition of financial stability. FP 1: Fund Balances The City will maintain stabilization funds at levels sufficient to protect the City's credit as well as its financial position from emergencies. The City of Rock Hill seeks to maintain a prudent level of financial resources to protect against reducing service levels or raising taxes and fees because of temporary revenue shortfalls or unpredicted one-time expenditures. Stabilization funds are called by many names including rainy day funds, unreserved, undesignated fund balances, and contingency funds. These funds are used at a government’s discretion for many purposes: to address temporary cash flow shortages; to fund emergencies; unanticipated economic downturns; and one-time opportunities. These funds provide flexibility to respond to unexpected opportunities that may help a government achieve its goals. The minimum and maximum amounts to be accumulated are based on the types of revenue, the level of uncertainty associated with revenues, the condition of capital assets, or the City’s level of security with its financial position. It is the goal of the City of Rock Hill to maintain a General Fund Balance equal to at least 15% of the total audited General Fund expenditures from the previous fiscal year and to maintain Enterprise Fund Unrestricted Net Assets equal to at least 20% of total Enterprise Fund operating expenses for the previous fiscal year. The State of South Carolina does not provide any local government constraints regarding the establishment of stabilization funds. The following summarizes the City's policy on different types of fund balances: Non-spendable The non-spendable fund balance includes amounts that cannot be spent because they are either not in spendable form, such as supplies inventories, or are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact, such as principal donated to the City to be invested and held in a permanent fund from which only the investment earnings can be spent. Restricted Fund balance is reported as restricted when constraints placed on the use of resources are either externally imposed by creditors (such as through debt covenants), grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments or is imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation (City ordinances). Enabling legislation includes a legally enforceable requirement that those resources be used only for the specific purposes stipulated in the legislation. Legal enforceability means that the City can be compelled by an external party to use resources created by enabling legislation only for the purposes specified by the legislation. Committed The committed fund balance classification includes amounts that can be used only for the specific purposes imposed by formal action of City Council. Those committed amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless City Council removes or changes the specified use by taking the same type of action it employed to previously commit those amounts. In contrast to fund balance that is restricted by enabling legislation, committed fund balance classification may be redeployed for other purposes with appropriate due process. Constraints imposed on the use of committed amounts are imposed by City Council, separate from the authorization to raise the underlying revenue; therefore, compliance with these constraints is not considered to be legally enforceable. Committed fund balance also incorporates contractual obligations to the extent that existing resources in the fund have been specifically committed for use in satisfying those contractual requirements.

City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017

253


Appendix Assigned Amounts in the assigned fund balance classification are intended to be used by the City for specific purposes but do not meet the criteria to be classified as restricted or committed. In governmental funds other than the General Fund, assigned fund balance represents the remaining amount that is not restricted or committed. In the General Fund, assigned amounts represent intended uses established by City Council or the City Manager or his designee. Unassigned Unassigned fund balance is the residual classification for the General Fund and includes all spendable amounts not contained in the other classifications. In other governmental funds, the unassigned classification is used only to report a deficit balance resulting from overspending for specific purposes for which amounts had been restricted, committed, or assigned. FP 2: Revenue The City will design, maintain and administer a revenue system that will assure a reliable, equitable, diversified and sufficient revenue stream to support desired City services. Since the principle revenue stream for the government is determined by the fees and charges that are established, it is important that the City adopt policies that identify the manner in which fees and charges are set and the extent to which they cover the cost of the service provided. A revenue system that requires the identification of both the cost of the program and the portion of the cost that will be recovered through fees & charges allows the City and its citizens to develop a better understanding of the cost of services and to consider the appropriateness of established fees and charges. To that end, the City has established the following goals that are used to accomplish this policy: 1. The City will seek to establish all user charges fees at a level related to the full costs (operating, direct, indirect and capital) of providing the service. The City will review these fees & charges annually in the budget process and target rates that meet the cost to serve – particularly in the City’s key businesses (Public Safety, Public Works, Electric, Water, Wastewater, and Parks, Recreation & Tourism). In any event, all enterprise funds will be self-supporting. 2. Costs of service include direct and indirect costs such as operating and maintenance costs, overhead, and charges for use of capital (depreciation and debt service). A government may choose not to recover all costs, but it should identify such costs. Reasons for not recovering full costs should be identified and explained. State and local law may govern the establishment of fees and charges. 3. The City will consider market rates and charges levied by other businesses and municipalities for like services in establishing rates, fees and charges. These fees will be reviewed through the City’s annual rate survey. 4. One-time or special revenues shall not be used to finance ongoing City operations but rather be used for the funding of special projects. 5. An aggressive policy of seeking the collection of delinquent utility and license fee accounts will be maintained. 6. Citizen input into decisions relating to revenues will be solicited during the annual budget public hearing process and will be made available for public review prior to City Council consideration of first reading.

Appendix 7. In determining revenue projections - and where judgment is required - conservatism shall be the rule. FP 3: Diversified Revenue Base The City will annually review its revenue source to maintain a diversified revenue base. The City of Rock Hill is committed to a diverse revenue base. Since all revenue sources have particular characteristics in terms of stability, growth, sensitivity to inflation or business cycle effects, and impact on tax and rate payers - a diversity of revenue sources can improve a government’s ability to handle fluctuations in revenues and potentially help to better distribute the cost of providing services. The City will identify approaches that will be used to improve revenue diversification. In accomplishing this policy, the City will analyze the sensitivity of revenues to changes in rates, the fairness of the tax or fee, administrative aspects of the revenue source, and other relevant issues. Over time the City will strive to improve its revenue diversity to the extent feasible. Since the City is statutorily limited as to the types of revenues it may raise, it may consider options to enhance flexibility within the constraints of available revenue sources. For example, The City will seek to diversify the tax base on which the property tax is levied. FP 4: Use of One-Time Revenue The City will limit the use of one-time revenues to pay for ongoing expenditures of the government. By definition, one-time revenues cannot be relied on in future budget periods. Since the use of one-time revenues can have disruptive effects on services due to non-recurrence of these sources, the City will dedicate one-time revenues (e.g. infrequent sales of government assets, bond refunding savings, infrequent revenues from development, and grants) to be used on expenditures appropriate startup costs, stabilization, special projects, and capital purchases. Any use of revenue that adds to the ongoing expenditure base will be carefully reviewed and minimized (e.g., capital expenditures that significantly increase ongoing operating expenses without a sustainable and offsetting long-term revenue plan). FP 5: Revenue Classification The City will annually evaluate all revenues, determine those that are considered to be unpredictable, and determine the best use of those revenues. A financial plan for governments should take into account the unpredictable nature of key revenues. This ensures that a government understands the potential impact on its ability to cover service costs and develops contingency plans in advance to address unpredictable revenue fluctuations. Specific allocation and contingency plans do not have to be developed for all unpredictable revenues, but become increasingly necessary as the size or unpredictability of the revenue source increases. The City will annually identify major revenue sources it considers unpredictable and define how these revenues may be used. Unpredictable revenue sources cannot be relied on as to the level of revenue they will generate. Particularly with major revenue sources, it is important to consider how significant variation in revenue receipts will affect the government’s financial outlook and ability to operate programs in the current and future budget periods. For each major unpredictable revenue source, the City will identify those aspects of the revenue source that make

City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017

255


Appendix the revenue unpredictable. Most importantly, the City will identify the expected or normal degree of volatility of the revenue source. For example, revenues from a particular source may fluctuate, but rarely, if ever, fall below some predictable minimum base. The City will decide, in advance, on a set of tentative actions to be taken if these revenue sources generate revenues substantially higher or lower than projected. The plans should be publicly discussed and used in budget decision making. FP 6: Operating Transfers The City will quantify operating transfers from the utility system to cover utility costs which are budgeted with general fund expenses. The City Council has determined that the City needs to maintain the competitiveness of the utility system and rate structure, and therefore has historically minimized Utility Fund transfers to the General Fund, except for amounts reasonably necessary to cover a portion of the General Fund expenses which are incurred to support City General Fund obligations and costs related to the utility system services. Such General Fund expenses include, among other things, the use of City resources, assets, and facilities and funding obligations of the City’s General Fund related to utility system bonded indebtedness. Notwithstanding the higher costs to the General Fund related to such utility system expenses, the transfers should be reduced to a level that is supportable by standard utility business practices. Accordingly, in order to maintain a competitive utility rate structure, the City will forgo a larger Utility Fund transfer and uses a formula that presupposes that utility services would have been provided by a privately-owned utility instead of the City’s publicly owned utility. Such utility would have paid municipal ad valorem taxes and a franchise fee to the General Fund of the City and the utility’s investors would have been entitled to a return on their investment. For this reason, the city has established the following policy guideline regarding franchise fees, payments in lieu of taxes, rates of return and operating transfers from the utility system:

256

1.

Payment in Lieu of Franchise Fees. The City shall budget annually the equivalent of a franchise fee from the Utility Fund that would have been paid had electric, water and sewer services been provided by an investor-owned utility. This fee shall be calculated by multiplying all gross revenues of the electric, water and sewer systems made within the City’s corporate boundaries by the current franchise fee the City charges to private utility providers (5%). The payment in lieu of a franchise fee shall be reported as an expense of the electric, water and sewer system and as a revenue of the General Fund.

2.

Payment in Lieu of Taxes. The City shall budget annually the equivalent of a payment in lieu of taxes from the electric, water, and sewer systems to the General Fund that approximates the amount of ad valorem taxes that would have been paid had utility services been provided by an investor-owned utility. The payment in lieu of taxes shall be calculated by multiplying the gross fixed assets of the system reported in the City’s most recent audited financial statements by the appropriate assessment ratio and then by the City-wide tax rate included in the City’s most recent budget ordinance. The resulting product shall be multiplied by the estimated percentage of electric, water and sewer fixed assets that are located within the City’s corporate boundaries. The payment in lieu of taxes amount calculated under this section shall be reported as an expense of the electric, water and sewer system and as a revenue of the General Fund.

3.

Payment in Lieu of Rate of Return. The City may budget annually a payment in lieu of a rate of return on the gross operational revenues of the electric, water and sewer systems. This rate of return will be based on 5% of gross utility revenues and may be adjusted by City Council to meet the current competitive utility business environment. The payment in lieu of a rate of return amount calculated under this section shall be reported as an expense of the electric, water and sewer system and as revenue of the General Fund.

4.

Exceptions. The amount to be paid from the electric, water and sewer systems under this resolution may be increased or reduced upon approval of the City Council so long as the amounts actually paid City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017


Appendix do not exceed amounts reasonably necessary to cover a portion of the General Fund expenses which are incurred to support City General Fund obligations and costs related to the utility system services, or as otherwise allowed by applicable law.

FP 7: Operational Reporting City staff will provide to the City Council a report on the operating results of the City. All excess revenue collected by the City of Rock Hill that exceeds the projected budget revenue figure from a specific revenue category for each fiscal reporting period must be reported to City Council on a monthly basis. The expenditure of any and all excess revenue will be at Council’s discretion and cannot be utilized within the City budget without Council’s approval. Likewise, all expenditures that exceed the projected budget expense figures in excess of $5,000 on a departmental level must be reported to Council in writing by the next scheduled Council meeting. Expenditures that would cause an increase above the $5,000 cap on a departmental level cannot be made without prior approval of Council. Cost savings that may occur within a specific department can be utilized within that particular department; however, this cost savings cannot be transferred to another department without prior approval of Council. FP 8: Adoption of Balanced Budget The City will annually adopt a Balanced Operating Budget. According to the laws of the State of South Carolina, the City will adopt a balanced operating budget and provide full disclosure when a deviation from a balanced operating budget is planned or when it occurs. This balanced budget will ensure that all operating revenues are equal to, or exceed, all operating expenditures at adoption and at year-end. Any increase in expenses, decrease in revenues, or combination of the two that would result in a budget imbalance will require budget revision, rather than spending unappropriated surpluses or designated reserves to support ongoing operations. Any year end operating surpluses will revert to unappropriated balances. The City of Rock Hill annual budget appropriation will cover the twelve-month period beginning July 1 and ending June 30 of the following year. The proposed budget document is to be presented to the City Council for their consideration no later than June 1 with adoption of the approved ordinance by June 30. According to state law, any required public hearings will be scheduled to receive input on the development of the budget. Special public hearings are also required to consider the issue of a tax increase. Budgets shall be prepared at the department level and provide the basis for the City’s financial management system. The adopted appropriations by fund shall constitute the maximum expenditure authorization for that fund and can be amended only by action of the City Council. The budget shall be developed in conjunction with a stated program of performance objectives and measures with which to gauge progress towards meeting those objectives. The following guidelines will be used in the preparation of the budget document: 1. Current appropriations in all funds are limited to the sum of available, unencumbered cash balances and revenues estimated to be received in the current budget period. 2. General Fund expenditures and subsidy appropriations for mandated and priority programs are to be made against current revenue sources, and not dependent upon uncertain reserves or fluctuating

257


Appendix prior period cash balances. 3. Special Revenue Funds are supported by special levies and fees, grants or intergovernmental revenues. Expenditures in these funds are strictly limited to the mandates of the funding source. Special Revenue Funds are not to be used to subsidize other funds, except as required or permitted by program regulations. 4. All operations of the Enterprise Fund will be self-supporting entities. The City will conduct an annual review of fee structures, charges for services, and other operating revenues and expenditures. 5. Multi-year operating cost projections shall be prepared and updated each year to identify the impact on resources. 6. A ten-year Capital Improvements Program shall be prepared and updated each year. The operating impact of each project shall be identified and incorporated into annual operating budgets. Capital assets shall be purchased and maintained on a regular schedule. Within legal limits and the constraints of operating budgets, debt shall be issued for the purchase of capital assets, including major renovations. 7. For purposes of this policy, the cash basis of accounting are used in defining revenues and expenditures. 8. It will be the duty of the City Manager to take action to bring the budget into balance if adjustments are needed in the course of a fiscal period.

FP 9: Delivery of Services The City will identify priority services, establish appropriate service levels, and administer the expenditure of available resources to assure fiscal stability and the effective and efficient delivery of services. The City will operate on a current funding basis. Expenditures shall be budgeted and controlled so as not to exceed current revenues plus the planned use of fund balance accumulated through prior years. The City shall take immediate corrective actions if at any time during the fiscal year expenditure and revenue reestimates are such that an operating deficit is projected at year-end. Corrective actions are outlined separately within these policies. Expenditure deferrals into the following fiscal year, short-term loans, or use of one-time revenue sources to balance the budget will be avoided. The Finance Director is charged with performing periodic staff and third-party reviews of City programs for both efficiency and effectiveness. Privatization and contracting with other governmental agencies will be evaluated as alternatives to service delivery. Programs that are determined to be inefficient and/or ineffective are to be reduced in scope or eliminated. The City of Rock Hill makes every effort to maximize any discounts offered by creditors / vendors. Staff shall also use competitive bidding to attain the best possible price on goods and services. FP 10: Debt Policy The City will adhere to a debt policy that ensures that debt is issued and managed prudently in order to maintain a sound fiscal position and protect credit quality.

258

City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017


Appendix Issuing debt commits the City’s revenues several years into the future, and may limit the City’s flexibility to respond to changing service priorities, revenue inflows, or cost structures. A debt policy sets forth the parameters for issuing debt and managing outstanding debt and provides guidance to decision makers regarding the timing and purposes for which debt may be issued, types and amounts of permissible debt, method of sale that may be used and structural features that may be incorporated. The City plans long- and short-term debt issuance to finance its capital program based on its cash flow needs, sources of revenue, capital construction periods, available financing instruments and market conditions. The Director of Finance oversees and coordinates the timing, issuance process and marketing of the City’s borrowing and capital funding activities required in support of the capital improvement plan. This debt policy recognizes a binding commitment to full and timely repayment of all debt as an intrinsic requirement for entry into the capital markets. Adherence to a debt policy helps to ensure that the City maintains a sound debt position and that credit quality is protected. Components of the debt policy are as follows: The City will confine its long-term borrowing to capital improvements and follow a policy of full disclosure on every financial report and bond prospectus. In no case will general obligation debt be used for self-supporting enterprise activity. The City will use voter-approved general obligation debt to fund general-purpose public improvements that cannot be financed from current revenues. Capital Planning. The City will have an annual capital planning process that outlines major projected capital expenditures over the next ten years. The capital budget identifies revenue sources and capital expenditures and projects this information for each of the ten years. This information is updated annually. Financing Team. The City often employs outside financial specialists to assist it in developing a bond issuance strategy, preparing bond documents and marketing bonds to investors. The key players in the City’s financing transactions include its bond counsel, the underwriter and underwriters counsel (on a negotiated sale), the City attorney and City representatives (the Director of Finance and other City representatives as may be appointed by the City Manager). Other outside firms, such as those providing paying agent/registrar, trustee, credit enhancement, auditing, or printing services, are retained as required. The financing team will meet at least annually to review the overall financing strategy of the City and make recommendations to the City Manager. Term of Debt Repayment. Borrowings by the City shall mature over a term that does not exceed the economic life of the improvements that they finance. General Obligation Bonds shall be issued with a term not to exceed 25 years; Revenue Bonds with a term not to exceed 30 years; and tax increment bonds with a term not to exceed 25 years. The City does not finance improvements with a probable useful life less than twenty years, using pay-as-you-go funding for such needs. Call provisions. The City seeks to minimize the protection from optional redemption given to bondholders, consistent with its desire to obtain the lowest possible interest rates on its bonds. The City’s bonds are generally subject to optional redemption. The City seeks early calls at low or no premiums because such features have allowed it in the past to refinance debt more easily for debt service savings when interest rates dropped. The City will annually evaluate optional redemption provisions for each issue to assure that the City does not pay unacceptably higher interest rates to obtain such advantageous calls. Interest rates. In most cases, the city will use fixed-rate debt to finance it capital needs; however, the City may issue up to 25% of its total debt portfolio in variable rate debt. Method of Sale. The City will select a method of sale that is the most appropriate in light of financial, market, transaction-specific and issuer-related conditions.

City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017

259


Appendix Competitive Sales. General obligation debt obligations are issued through a competitive sale – according to state law. For these bonds – and any other bonds that the City may deem necessary - the City will set the terms of the sale to encourage as many bidders as possible. By maximizing bidding, the City seeks to obtain the lowest possible interest rates on its bonds. The following conditions may favor the use of a competitive sale: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.

The market is familiar with the issuer; The issuer is a stable and regular borrower in the public market; There is an active secondary market with a broad investor base for the City’s bonds; The issue has a non-enhanced credit rating of A or above or can obtain a credit enhancement prior to the competitive sale; The debt structure is backed by the issuer’s full faith and credit or a strong, known or historically performing revenue stream; The issue is neither too large to be easily absorbed by the market nor too small to attract investors without a concerted sale effort; The issue does not include complex or innovative features or require explanation as to the bonds’ security; The issue can be sold and closed on a schedule that does not need to be accelerated or shortened for market or policy reasons; and Interest rates are stable, market demand is strong, and the market is able to absorb a reasonable amount of buying or selling at reasonable price changes.

Negotiated Sales. When certain conditions favorable for a competitive sale do not exist and when a negotiated sale will provide significant benefits to the City that would not be achieved through a competitive sale, the City may elect to sell its debt obligations through a private or negotiated sale. Such determination may be made on an issue-by-issue basis, for a series of issues, or for part or all of a specific financing program. The following conditions may favor the use of a negotiated sale: 1. 2. 3.

4. 5.

6.

7.

Insure fairness by using a competitive underwriter selection process through a request for proposals where multiple proposals are considered; Remain actively involved in each step of the negotiation and sale processes to uphold the public trust; Insure that either an employee of the issuer, or an outside professional other than the issue underwriter, who is familiar with and abreast of the condition of the municipal market, is available to assist in structuring the issue, pricing, and monitoring sales activities; Require that the financial advisor used for a particular bond issue not act as underwriter of the same bond issue; Require that financial professionals disclose the name or names of any person or firm, including attorneys, lobbyists and public relations professionals compensated in connection with a specific bond issue; Request all financial professionals submitting joint proposals or intending to enter into joint accounts or any fee-splitting arrangements in connection with a bond issue to fully disclose to the issuer any plan or arrangements to share tasks, responsibilities and fees earned, and disclose the financial professionals with whom the sharing is proposed, the method used to calculate the fees to be earned, and any changes thereto; and Review the “Agreement among Underwriters” and insure that it is filed with the issuer and that it governs all transactions during the underwriting period.

Refinancing. The City may undertake refinancing of outstanding debt under the following circumstances: Debt Service Savings. The City may refinance outstanding long-term debt when such refinancing allows

260

City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017


Appendix the City to realize significant debt service savings without lengthening the term of refinanced debt and without increasing debt service in any subsequent fiscal year. Defeasance. The City may refinance outstanding debt, either by advance refunding to the first call or by defeasance to maturity, when the public policy benefits of replacing such debt outweigh the costs associated with new issuance as well as any increase in annual debt service. Conduit Financings. Conduit financings are securities issued by a government agency to finance a project of a third party, such as a non-profit organization or other private entity. The City may sponsor conduit financings for those activities (e.g., economic development, housing) that have a general public purpose and are consistent with the City’s overall service and policy objectives. Unless a compelling public policy rationale exists, such conduit financings will not in any way pledge the City’s faith and credit. Credit Ratings Rating Agency Relationships. The Director of Finance is responsible for maintaining relationships with the rating agencies that assign ratings to the City’s various debt obligations. This effort includes providing periodic updates on the City’s general financial condition along with coordinating meetings and presentations in conjunction with a new debt issuance. Quality of Ratings. The City requests ratings prior to the sale of securities from each of the two major rating agencies for municipal bond issues: Moody’s Investors Service and Standard & Poor’s Corporation. The City may provide a written and/or oral presentation to the rating agencies to help each credit analyst make an informed evaluation. The City will make every reasonable effort to maintain its high quality credit ratings. Rebate Reporting/Covenant Compliance/Reporting Practices. The Director of Finance is responsible for maintaining a system of record keeping and reporting to meet the arbitrage rebate compliance requirements of the federal tax code. Additionally, general financial reporting and certification requirements embodied in bond covenants are monitored to ensure that all covenants are complied with. The City will comply with the standards of the Government Finance Officers Association for financial reporting and budget presentation and the disclosure requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Checklist of Debt Policy Considerations. The City will observe the following GFOA checklist in determining the appropriateness of debt issuance: 1. How long is the capital planning period? 2. Have all non-debt sources of funds been considered? 3. How are borrowing plans reviewed internally? 4. What level of debt is manageable in order to maintain or improve the government’s credit quality? 5. How much “pay-as-you-go” financing should be included in the capital plan? 6. How much short-term borrowing will be undertaken, including both operating and capital borrowings? 7. How much debt will be issued in the form of variable-rate securities? 8. How does the redemption schedule for each proposed issue affect the overall debt service requirements of the government? 9. What types of affordability guidelines will be established to help monitor and preserve credit quality? 10. What provisions have been made to periodically review the capital plan and borrowing practices? 11. What is the overlapping debt burden on the taxpayer? 12. How will the formal debt policies be integrated into the capital planning and funding process? FP 11: Debt Limit

City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017

261


Appendix The city will establish thresholds for the maximum amount of debt and debt service that should be outstanding at any one time. Policies guiding the amount of debt that may be issued by a government help ensure that outstanding and planned debt levels do not exceed an amount that can be supported by the existing and projected tax and revenue base. Because of this, the City has developed distinct policies for general obligation debt, debt supported by revenues of government enterprises, and other types of debt such as special assessment bonds, tax increment financing bonds, short-term debt, variable-rate debt, and leases. General Obligation Debt Affordability Measures. The City examines four statistical measures to determine debt capacity and compares these ratios to other cities, rating agency standards and Rock Hill’s historical ratios to determine debt affordability. This is the only measure that is prescribed by state law, which provides that the City’s general obligation debt cannot exceed 8% of the City’s total assessed value (excluding tax anticipation notes and other indebtedness with a maturity of one year or less; bonds or other indebtedness of the City payable from taxes levied from special taxing areas; and self-supporting bonds or other debt.) Total general obligation debt as measured against the population on a per-capita basis cannot exceed $225. Total annual general obligation debt as measured as a percent of current expenditures cannot exceed 12%. Utility Enterprise Debt Affordability Measures. The City’s Revenue debt level shall not exceed a debt service coverage ratio of 1.20 times of the annual net pledged revenues to annual debt service. In addition, additional bonds should not have a negative impact on the City’s overall credit ratings. Tax Increment Debt Affordability Measures. The City’s Tax Increment debt level shall not exceed the current available revenues or revenues projected within the district from projects that have obtained a building permit. FP 12: Contingency Planning The City will develop practices to guide the financial actions it will take in the event of emergencies, natural disasters, or other unexpected events. When emergencies or unexpected events occur, having a policy that can be applied, or at least serve as a starting point, for financial decisions and actions improves the ability of a government to take timely action and aids in the overall management of such situations. Policies on contingency planning are used as a general guide when an emergency or unexpected event occurs. A set of actions and strategies are identified for each type of situation. Examples of financial emergencies that require contingency plans are sudden and severe decreases in locally collected revenues or intergovernmental aid, and unexpected major capital maintenance requirements. Development of a contingency plan in advance of such situations may be viewed positively by the rating agencies when evaluating a government’s credit quality. This can also help expedite relief efforts when an emergency does occur and allow the government to recover funds more quickly or more effectively in the event of a natural disaster. The following is a summary of the phase classifications and the corresponding actions to be taken. Alert. An anticipated net reduction in available reserves or reduction in major revenue source(s) from 1% up to 9%. The actions associated with this phase would best be described as delaying expenditures where reasonably possible, while maintaining the "Same Level" of service. Each department will be responsible for monitoring its individual budgets to ensure that only essential expenditures are made.

Appendix Minor. A reduction in reserves in excess of 9%, but less than 23%. The objective at this level is still to maintain "Same Level" of service where possible. Actions associated with this level would be: a. Implementing the previously determined "Same Level" Budget. b. Intensifying the review process for large items such as contract services, consulting services, and capital expenditures including capital improvements. c. Closely scrutinizing hiring for vacant positions, delaying the recruitment process, and using temporary help to fill in where possible. Moderate. A reduction in reserves in excess of 23%, but less than 50%. Initiating cuts of service levels by: a. Requiring greater justification for large expenditures. b. Deferring capital expenditures. c. Reducing CIP appropriations from the affected fund. d. Hiring to fill vacant positions only with special justification and authorization. e. Closely monitoring and reducing expenditures for travel, seminars, retreats and bonuses. Major. A reduction in reserves of 50% to 100%. Implementation of major service cuts. a. Instituting a hiring freeze. b. Reducing the temporary work force. c. Deferring merit wage increases. d. Further reducing capital expenditures. e. Preparing a strategy for reduction in force. Crisis. Reserves have been 100% depleted and potential for having a deficit is present. a. Implementing reduction in force or other personnel cost-reduction strategies. b. Eliminating programs. c. Eliminating capital improvements. In the event that an economic uncertainty is expected to last for consecutive years, the cumulative effect of the projected reduction in reserves will be used for determining the appropriate phase and corresponding actions. FP 13: Accounting Functions The City of Rock Hill will perform accounting functions that shall conform to the generally accepted accounting principles as applicable to governments. The diverse nature of governmental operations and the necessity of assuring legal compliance preclude recording all governmental financial transactions and balances in a single accounting entity. Therefore, from an accounting and financial management viewpoint, a governmental unit is a combination of several distinctly different fiscal and accounting entities, each having a separate set of accounts and functioning independently of each other. The City will comply with prevailing federal, state, and local statutes and regulations. The City will also conform to generally accepted accounting principles as promulgated by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), and the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA). In general, it will be the policy of the City to: Prepare and present regular reports that analyze, evaluate, and forecast the City’s financial performance and economic conditions. This information will be made available to the public for their inspection. With available resources, the City will seek out and employ the assistance of qualified financial advisors and consultants in the management and administration of the City’s financial functions.

Appendix An independent audit will be performed annually. The City will issue annual financial reports in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as outlined in the Governmental Accounting, Auditing and Financial Reporting (GAAFR) publication. The basis of accounting refers to the point at which revenues or expenditures/expenses are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements. It relates to the timing of the measurements made regardless of the measurement focus applied. As in the basis of budgeting, accounting records for the City of Rock Hill governmental funds are maintained on a modified accrual basis with the revenues being recorded when available and measurable and expenditures being recorded when the services or goods are received and the liabilities are incurred. In contrast to the basis of budgeting, accounting records for proprietary funds are maintained on the accrual basis in which revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recognized when incurred. The City of Rock Hill’s accounting system is organized and operated on a "fund" basis. Each accounting entity is accounted for in a separate "fund” which is defined as a fiscal accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts recording cash and other financial resources together with related liabilities and residual equities or balances, and changes therein. Two fund types defined in the “Description of Budgeted Funds are further defined below as well as the addition of Fiduciary Funds. Classification Fund Type Governmental Funds General Special Revenue Debt Service Capital Projects Proprietary Funds Enterprise Fiduciary Funds Agency Expendable Trust Governmental Funds. These funds are, in essence, accounting segregations of financial resources. Expendable assets are assigned to the various governmental funds according to the purposes for which they may or must be used; current liabilities are assigned to the fund from which they are to be paid; and the differences between governmental fund assets and liabilities (the fund equity) is referred to as "Fund Balance". The primary measurement focus is “flow of current financial resources.” Increases in spendable resources are reported in the operating statement as revenues or other financing sources, and decreases are reported as expenditures or other financing uses. Proprietary Funds. These funds are sometimes referred to as "income determination," "non expendable," or "commercial type" funds and are used to account for a government's on-going organizations and activities which are similar to those often found in the private sector. All assets, liabilities, equities, revenues, expenses, and transfers relating to the government's business and quasi-business activities, where net income and capital maintenance are measured, are accounted for through proprietary funds. The generally accepted accounting principles here are those applicable to similar businesses in the private sector, and the measurement focus is the economic condition of the fund as a result of the events and transactions of the period. Events and transactions that improve the economic position of a proprietary fund are reported as revenues or gains in the operating statement. Those that diminish the economic position are reported as expenses or losses. Fiduciary Funds. These funds account for assets held by the City in a trustee capacity or as an agent for other governmental units and for other funds. Each trust fund is accounted for as either a governmental or a proprietary fund. Fiduciary funds are not budgeted in the annual budget process. Account Groups. These represent another accounting entity used to establish control and accountability for the City's general fixed assets and the outstanding principal of its general long-term debt (General Fixed Assets Account Group and General Long- Term Debt Account Group). These records are accounted for in a self-expenditures. The outstanding principal of the general long-term debt and general long-term liabilities not accounted for in the Proprietary Funds or Trust Funds do not require an appropriation or expenditure during the account year. 264

Appendix Internal Control. In developing and maintaining the City's accounting system, consideration is given to the adequacy of internal accounting controls. Internal accounting controls are designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance regarding the safeguarding of assets against loss from unauthorized use or disposition and the reliability of financial records for preparing financial statements and maintaining accountability for assets. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived, and the evaluation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management. All internal control evaluations occur within the above framework. We believe that the City's internal accounting controls adequately safeguard assets and provide reasonable assurance of proper recording of financial transactions. FP 14: Economic Development Incentive Policy The City of Rock Hill will provide economic development incentives with the goals of targeting economic and geographic sectors; promoting business retention and recruitment; encouraging job creation; increasing property tax revenue; and improving blight, economically distressed areas, and environmental conditions. In general, it will be the policy of the City to maintain a fund, replenish the fund, and provide financial incentives programs in accordance with the strategic goals of the City. Financial Incentive Programs: Growth Management Incentives Façade Grants Job Creation Land Acquisition Environmental Testing and/or Cleanup Gap Financing Infrastructure extensions Other Business Incentives at the discretion of the City Council Guidelines for Limits to Incentives: Growth Management incentives: as approved by City Council in the Growth Management Incentive Policy Façade Grants: to specific geographic areas Infrastructure: in general, to a 5 year payback from Utility revenues Fund Establishment and Replenishment: The Economic Development Incentive Fund was established from the land sale proceeds of City property in the Dave Lyle/Manchester area. The following revenue sources are identified to replenish the fund: Interest income from the fund Cell tower rental revenues from Hwy 901 Water Tank Site Proceeds from the sale of property in City Business Parks: Tech Park – 50% of land sale proceeds Southway Industrial Park – 100% of land sale proceeds Proceeds from the sale of property in the Dave Lyle/Manchester area Proceeds from the sale of other City owned property at the discretion of Council Performance Monitoring: The effectiveness of the overall economic development incentive fund and each project funded shall be measured and reported annually to ensure that the overall goals of the program are met. FP 15: Written Procedures Related to the Issuance of Tax-Exempt Bonds Post-issuance tax compliance begins with the debt issuance process itself and provides for a continuing focus on investments of bond proceeds and use of bond-financed property. It requires identifying existing policies, the responsible people, the applicable procedures, and the affected population. City of Rock Hill, South Carolina—Fiscal Year 2016/2017

Appendix I.

Procedures

The City Manager or the Chief Financial Officer (the “City Representative”) of the City of Rock Hill, South Carolina (the “City”) will be responsible for post-issuance tax compliance and steps to be taken to transfer that responsibility and accumulated information in the future. The City Representative may delegate to his/her staff responsibility for different aspects, for example investment of bond proceeds and expenditure of bond proceeds on projects, coordinate record-keeping and review; however, the City Representative will be ultimately responsible. II.

Issuance

The City Representative will: Obtain and store the Transcript of Proceedings prepared by bond counsel. Confirm filing of Form 8038-G with the Internal Revenue Service, usually overseen by bond counsel at or soon after closing. III.

Recordkeeping

The City Representative will: Establish plan for keeping relevant books and records as to investment and expenditure of bond proceeds. Keep accurate records including: - Basic records relating to the bond transactions (including the bond ordinances, closing certificates, and bond counsel opinion); - Documentation evidencing expenditure of bond proceeds; - Documentation evidencing use of bond-financed property by public and private sources (i.e., copies of management contracts use agreements); - Documentation evidencing all sources of payment or security for the bonds; and - Documentation pertaining to any investment of bond proceeds (including the purchase and sale of securities, SLGS subscriptions, yield calculations for each class of investments, actual investment income received from the investment of proceeds, guaranteed investment contracts, and rebate calculations). Keep all records in a manner that ensures their complete access to the IRS so long as they are material. While this is typically accomplished through the maintenance of hard copies, records may be kept in an electronic format if certain requirements are satisfied, in accordance with the guidelines in Rev Proc 97-22, 1997-1 C.B. 652. Keep records for as long as the bonds are outstanding plus three years after the final redemption date of the bonds. IV.

Arbitrage

The City Representative will: Engage services of an arbitrage/rebate consultant for assistance in compliance with arbitrage related issues. Monitor compliance with “temporary period expectations” for expenditure of bond proceeds, typically three years for new money bonds, and provide for yield restriction of investments or “yield reduction payments” if expectations are not satisfied. Ensure investments acquired with bond proceeds are purchased at fair market value. This can include use of bidding procedures under regulatory safe harbor.

Appendix Consult with the City’s bond counsel prior to the creation of funds which would reasonably be expected to be used to pay debt service on bonds to determine in advance whether such funds must be invested at restricted yield. Consult with the City’s bond counsel before engaging in post-issuance credit enhancement transactions (e.g., bond insurance, letter of credit) or hedging transactions (e.g., interest rate swap, cap). Consult with the City’s bond counsel and arbitrage consultant to identify situations in which compliance with applicable yield restrictions depends upon later investments, (e.g., purchase of 0% SLGS from U.S. Treasury), and monitor implementation. Work with the City’s arbitrage consultant to arrange for timely computation of rebate liability and, if rebate is payable, for timely filing of Form 8038-T and payment of rebate. Rebate is ordinarily due at 5-year intervals. The arbitrage consultant’s report will be reviewed by bond counsel. V.

Private Use of Bonds-Funded Facilities

The City Representative will: Create and maintain records of which proceeds of bond issues were used to finance which facilities. These records shall track refunding or partial refunding of any bond issues. Accurately record the allocation of bond proceeds to expenditures, including reimbursements. These records will be used for arbitrage purposes. Record the allocation of bond proceeds and funds from other sources in connection with any bond funded project. Review expenditure of bond proceeds with bond counsel to ensure bond proceeds are used for qualifying costs. Keep records of private use, if any, of bond financed facilities to ensure the amount of private use of bond financed facilities. Private use of bond-financed facilities shall be reviewed once a year (in connection with the preparation of annual financial statements). If a change in private use occurs, bond counsel will be consulted to determine if remedial action is necessary. Review with bond counsel prior to the sale or lease of a bond-financed facility, or the granting of a license or management contract, or any other arrangement allowing private use of a bond financed facility. VI.

Reissuance

The City Representative will: Consult with bond counsel to identify any post-issuance change to the terms of bonds which could be treated as a current refunding of “old” bonds by “new” bonds, often referred to as a “reissuance.” Consult with bond counsel to determine whether any “remedial action” in connection with a “change of use” must be treated as a “reissuance.”
