STRATEGIC PLANNING AND BUDGET DEVELOPMENT PROCESS __________________________________________________________________ The City of Suffolk’s Annual Capital Planning and Annual Operating and Capital Budget processes begin each year in September and conclude after the final adoption by City Council, prior to June 30th of the following year. The budget process is designed to include an analysis of each department’s budget and to allocate resources across departmental programs based on the strategic plans, goals and directions provided by City Council and a thorough examination of programs and justifications. Each activity that is funded is reviewed by the City’s Director of Finance, the City Manager, and the City Council. Long and Short Term Strategic Planning: The annual Council retreat focuses on the City’s goals, visioning, land use, and important financial matters. Topics include issues associated with the City’s Ten Year Comprehensive Development Plan, and significant service issues from staff and Council. Council develops its vision and a list of priorities and staff provides Council with recommended strategic initiatives to be addressed in the short and long term future of the City. Short and long term strategic initiatives are developed and updated for use in the development of the City’s ten year Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) and Annual Operating and Capital Budget. Long Range Budget Forecast: The Division of Budget and Strategic Planning, in accordance with the City’s financial advisor, produces a Long Range Budget Forecast annually to evaluate the total amount of available resources and anticipated costs over a five year period. It incorporates levels of anticipated revenues over the next five years, the projected levels of operating costs, the anticipated levels of debt service for the Capital Improvements Program and Plan, and the anticipated operating costs associated with all new capital facilities. In turn, the first year of the Long Range Budget Forecast is used as a framework from which to develop the guidelines and targets for the Operating Budget. The Long Range Forecast is used to determine the level of funding the City will have to support its Capital Improvement Program and Plan within the debt policy constraints adopted by the City. Development of the Annual Capital Improvements Program and Plan (CIP): The City of Suffolk begins the development of its Annual Capital Improvements Program and Plan (CIP) in September to address in detail the five year capital program and additional five year planning horizon for needed City capital improvements. A recommended CIP is developed by the City Manager with input from the various departments of the City. The City Manager’s recommended plan is reviewed by a CIP Committee consisting of the two Council elected representatives on the City’s Finance Committee and two designated members of the City Planning Commission. The CIP Committee reviews the proposal and specific projects with the City Manager and directs adjustments and forwards its recommended plan to the full

5


Planning Commission. The Planning Commission reviews, directs, edits, and recommends the document to the City Council who receives the plan, holds a public hearing, edits as necessary and adopts the plan. The CIP process is concluded in February prior to the development of the Annual Operating and Capital Budget. The first year of the adopted CIP is incorporated into the City Manager’s Proposed Annual Operating and Capital Budget. Development of the Annual Revenue Estimates and Operating and Capital Budget: The development of the Annual Operating and Capital Budget begins in November with the assembly of a budget development committee comprised of appointees by the City Manager. The City Manager’s budget committee holds a planning meeting in November to create the budget work plan and calendar with oversight responsibility assigned to the Director of Finance. This work plan is designed to incorporate a rigorous internal review of service areas, work processes, and cost centers in need of strategic analysis to address the efficiency and effectiveness of the City. Community budget meetings are generally held in January to gather public input, suggestions, and comments for the development of the City Manager’s proposed budget. Budget requests for each activity of the City are submitted electronically to the Division of Budget and Strategic Planning for compilation and review by the budget committee. Accountability exists to support every dollar requested with detailed support and explanations. Meetings are held with each department to review their submission and programs and address questions and possible solutions to improve efficiency and effectiveness. Follow-up meetings are later held to review the City Manager’s recommended budget with each department and address any remaining issues. Revenue estimates and projections are developed through a cooperative review by the City’s Treasurer, Commissioner of the Revenue, Assessor, and the Director of Finance. Estimates are derived at the line item level projecting the current year’s revenue and estimating anticipated revenues for the following fiscal year based on both historic trend information and other known revenue factors such as actions of the State General Assembly and City Council, as well as impacts of the current economy on local and State revenue receipts. The City Manager submits a budget message and proposed operating and capital budget to the City Council at least sixty (60) days prior to the beginning of each budget year or July 1st. This budget includes all proposed revenue sources and estimates with recommended expenditures for all funds required to support the City’s operations and capital projects. In accordance with the City Charter, the budget transmitted by the City Manager to the City Council must be balanced, meaning that expenditures recommended by the City Manager must not exceed estimated revenues.

6


Public information meetings are typically held to review the contents of the City Manager’s proposed operating and capital budget with interested residents of the City. Work sessions are conducted with City Council to review the contents of the proposed budget and receive comments and changes as directed by Council. A public hearing is held for Council to receive public comment on the proposed Operating and Capital Budget. Prior to July 1, the City Council makes its final revisions to the proposed budget and adopts the budget by ordinance. Funds are appropriated at the Fund level through an appropriations ordinance. Budgets for all funds are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to governmental units. Budgeted amounts reflected in the financial statements are as originally adopted, unless amended by the City Manager or City Council. Appropriations for all funds lapse at the fiscal year end with exception to outstanding encumbrances stated in the adopted appropriations ordinance for all ongoing projects and programs. The City Manager is authorized to amend appropriations by transferring unencumbered amounts within the appropriated funds. Otherwise, amendments that alter the total appropriation of any fund must be approved by the City Council. During the year, the City Council may approve amendments to original appropriations, primarily as a result of various Federal and State grant awards. The City Manager is authorized to reallocate funding sources for capital projects, including bond interest earnings to minimize arbitrage rebates and penalties.

CITY FINANCIAL STRUCTURE ________________________________________________________________ Description of Account Structure Accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds or account groups, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for with a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund balances/retained earnings, revenues and expenditures/expenses. The following fund types are used by the City of Suffolk: Governmental Funds Governmental Funds are those through which most governmental functions of the City are financed. The City presents the following major governmental funds: General Fund – The General Fund is the primary operating fund of the City. This fund is used to account for all financial transactions and resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund. Revenues are derived primarily from property and other local taxes, state and federal distributions, licenses, permits, charges for services, and interest income. A significant part of the General Fund’s revenues is transferred to other funds and component units, principally to finance the operations of the City of Suffolk Public Schools. Capital Projects Fund – The Capital Projects Fund is used to account for financial resources to be used for the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities (other than those financed by proprietary fund types). Debt Service Fund – The Debt Service Fund is used to account for the accumulation of resources for, and the payment of, general long-term debt principal, interest and related costs. The City presents the following non-major governmental funds: Special Revenue Funds The Special Revenue Funds account for revenue derived from specific sources (other than major capital projects) that are restricted by legal and regulatory provisions to finance specific activities. Aviation Facilities Fund – The Aviation Facilities Fund accounts for the revenues and expenditures related to the City’s airport. Revenues are derived from fuel sales, the rental of airport hangars and facilities, and the transfer of funding support from the General Fund. Downtown Business Overlay District Fund – The Downtown Business Overlay District accounts for revenues and expenditures related to services provided in the Downtown Business Overlay District. Most revenues are derived from a specific percentage of the annual real estate tax assessments in the Downtown Business Overlay District.

9


Road Maintenance Fund – The Road Maintenance Fund accounts for revenue and expenditures related to maintaining roads city wide. Revenues are derived from the State and sale of service to other funds. Consolidated Grants Fund – The Consolidated Grants Fund accounts for revenues and expenditures involving governmental grant programs. Law Library Fund – The Law Library Fund accounts for the maintenance of a law library. Revenue is derived from court fees. Route 17 Taxing District Fund – The Route 17 Taxing District Fund accounts for revenues and expenditures related to enhanced economic development related services provided in the Route 17 Taxing District. Most revenues are derived from a specific percentage of the annual real estate tax assessments in the Route 17 Taxing District. Transit System Fund – The Transit System Fund accounts for revenues and expenditures of the City’s transit system which includes three full day and three half day routes for a total of six bus routes and ADA service. Revenues are derived from fare collections, State and Federal grants, and the transfer of funding support from the General Fund. Proprietary Funds Proprietary Funds are used to account for activities that are similar to those often found in the private sector. All assets, liabilities, equities, revenues, expenses, and transfers relating to the primary government’s business activities are accounted through proprietary funds. The measurement focus is on the determination of net income, financial position, and cash flows. Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from non-operating revenues and expenses. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund’s principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the proprietary funds are charges for services. Operating expenses include cost of sales and services, personnel, contractual services, and depreciation. Enterprise Funds The Enterprise Funds account for operations that are financed in a manner similar to private business enterprises, where the intent is that costs of providing goods or services to the general public on a continuing basis be financed or recovered primarily through user charges. The City presents the following major enterprise fund: Utility Fund – The Utility Fund accounts for the provision of water and sewer services to City residents. All activities necessary to provide such services are accounted for in this fund, including, but not limited to, administration, operation, maintenance, billing, collections, financing and related debt service and capital assets of the water and sewage systems. The City presents the following non-major enterprise funds:

10


Refuse Fund – The Refuse Fund accounts for the provision of solid waste disposal and recycling services to City residents. Stormwater Utility Fund – The Stormwater Utility Fund accounts for the maintenance and improvements to the City’s stormwater infrastructure. Internal Service Funds The Internal Service Funds account for the financing of goods or services provided by one department to other departments or agencies of the City on a cost-reimbursement basis. The Internal Service Funds are included in governmental activities for government-wide reporting purposes. The excess revenue or expenses of the funds are allocated to the appropriate functional activity. Information Technology Fund – The Information Technology Fund accounts for the City’s technology infrastructure and allocates costs to the various departments or agencies using the service. Fleet Management Fund – The Fleet Management Fund accounts for the financing of vehicles and the related maintenance, repairs and fuel costs of the City and allocates operating costs to the various departments or agencies using the equipment. Risk Management Fund – The Risk Management Fund accounts for the funding and payment of auto, personal liability, general liability, health insurance, and workers’ compensation claims against the City exclusive of the School Board employees. Charges to other funds are based on estimated claims for the year. School Funds – The School Funds are used to account for the activities of the City of Suffolk Public School System. The appropriation by the City consolidates the funding for the existing three School funds. The School Operating Fund is the general accounting fund of the School System. It is used to account for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund. Revenues of this fund are derived from State and Federal funds and an annual appropriation from the local government. The School Food Service Fund accounts for the revenues and expenditures relating to the operation of school cafeterias. Revenues are derived from state and federal funds and the sale of commodities. The School Grant Fund accounts for revenues and expenditures relating to grants received by the School System directly from the state and federal government. Basis of Accounting The accounting and financial reporting treatment applied to a fund is determined by its measurement focus. All governmental funds are accounted for using the current financial resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, only current assets and current liabilities generally are included on the balance sheet in the funds statements. Long-term assets and long-term liabilities are included in the government-wide statements. Operating statements of the governmental funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets.

11


The government-wide statements of net assets and statements of activities, and proprietary funds, are accounted for on a flow of economic resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, all assets and all liabilities associated with the operation of these activities are either included on the statement of net assets or on the statement of fiduciary net assets. Proprietary fund-type operating statements present increases (e.g., revenues) and decreases (e.g., expenses) in net total assets. The fund financial statements of the Governmental Funds (for the primary government and component units) are maintained and reported on the modified accrual basis of accounting using the current financial resources measurement focus. Under this method of accounting, revenues are recognized in the period in which they become measurable and available. With respect to real and personal property tax revenue and other local taxes, the term “available” is limited to collection within forty-five days of the fiscal year-end. Levies made prior to the fiscal year-end but which are not available are deferred. Interest income is recorded as earned. Federal and State reimbursement-type grants are recorded as revenue when related eligible expenditures are incurred. Expenditures, other than accrued interest on long-term debt, are recorded when the fund liability is incurred. Basis of Budgeting The City prepares its annual operating budget providing estimates on the same basis as is used for its accounting and financial reporting noted above in the section entitled “Basis of Accounting”. The City utilizes the following procedures in establishing budgetary data reflected in the basic financial statements: 

The budget is prepared on a “zero base”.

At least 60 days prior to June 30, the City Manager submits to City Council a proposed operating budget for the fiscal year commencing the following July 1. The operating budget includes proposed expenditures and the means of financing them.

The budget is formulated from estimates of revenues and expected expenditures from each department. The School Board is treated as a single expenditure line item.

The City Manager submits the proposed budget to City Council, and recommends an appropriation ordinance and an ordinance levying the tax rates for the ensuing year.

City Council then holds public hearings on the proposed budget. Notice of such public hearing must appear in a local newspaper not less than seven days prior to the hearing.

The budget must be approved by a majority vote of City Council and legally adopted before July 1. If City Council does not adopt the proposed budget before July 1, the City Manager proposed budget as submitted is automatically adopted.

Additional appropriations may be made by City Council only if there is an unencumbered fund balance or additional funding becomes available. Supplemental budget appropriations may be approved during the fiscal year.

12


Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device. Annual operating budgets are adopted by ordinance passed by City Council for the General Fund, Capital Projects Fund, the Debt Service Fund, Special Revenue Funds (Aviation Facilities, Consolidated Grants Fund, Downtown Business Overlay District, Law Library, Road Maintenance, Route 17 Taxing District, and Transit System), Enterprise Funds (Utility, Refuse, and Stormwater), Internal Service Funds (Fleet Management, Information Technology, and Risk Management), and the School Operating Fund. The General, Special Revenue, Internal Service and Debt Service Funds’ budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Budgets for proprietary fund types are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. Beginning fund balances for budgetary basis presentation purposes are adjusted for the carryforward or prior year encumbrances. According to City Code, unexpended and unencumbered appropriations lapse at June 30 of each year. Appropriations that have not been expended or lawfully obligated or encumbered at June 30 are carried forward into the following year’s appropriations to allow for liquidation of the encumbrances. Continuation of previously authorized projects and grants by the City Council not completed as of June 30 of each year are authorized by ordinance to be reappropriated to the following year to allow for completion. Individual grants and projects included in the Consolidated Grants Fund and Capital Projects Fund are budgeted separately from the operating budget. These project authorizations do not parallel the City’s fiscal year and the accounting, encumbering and controlling of the funds are managed and monitored upon the length of each individual grant or project, which may be more than one year.

13

Current revenues will fund current expenditures and a diversified and stable revenue system will be maintained to protect programs. FY 18 Budget Status: Local revenues are diversified and projected to increase 3.2% or $6.3M in FY 18.

These fees shall be reviewed annually with the development of the annual operating budget. FY 18 Budget Status: All city fees and charges are reviewed annually with revisions provided to recoup a fair portion of the City’s expenses associated with the service provision.

The following new fees are recommended including spousal support order and payroll paycard replacement fee; various recreation processing fees, application and setup fees; and treasurer roll back tax interest. 2.03 Revenue Collections The City will strive to achieve an overall property tax collection rate of 100%. FY 18 Budget Status: The City continues to maintain strong local collection rates ranging from 96% to 99% for local taxes and fees with collection rates documented annually in the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. 2.04 Use of Fund Balance The City’s General Fund equity balance will be utilized to provide sufficient working capital in anticipation of current budgeted revenues and to finance unforeseen emergencies without borrowing.

CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA FINANCIAL POLICIES

FY 18 Budget Status: The City’s budget has been balanced with current General Fund revenues supporting all current General Fund expenditures for FY 18. The FY 18 Budget does provide for a draw of $2.5M from the Unassigned Fund Balance to assist with one-time capital project expenses. The $2.5M is anticipated from excess General Fund revenues in FY 17 which will fall to the Unassigned Fund Balance at the end of the fiscal year. 2.05 Restricted Revenue Restricted revenue (such as Medicaid or Asset Forfeiture funds) shall only be used for the purpose intended and in a fiscally responsible manner. FY 18 Budget Status: The City’s budget utilizes restricted revenues strictly for the designated purpose.

BUDGET 3.01 Balanced Budget The provisions of the Code of Virginia shall control the preparation, consideration, adoption and execution of the budget of the City. In addition, the City Charter requires the budget to be balanced with planned expenditures equal to estimated revenues. The City will annually adopt and execute a budget for such funds as may be required by law or by sound financial practices and generally accepted accounting principles. The budget shall control the levy of taxes and the expenditure of money for all City purposes during the ensuing fiscal year. The City budget shall be balanced within all available operating revenues, including the fund balance, and adopted by the City Council. FY 18 Budget Status: The FY 18 budget is balanced for all funds operated by the City denoting appropriate tax rates where applicable to sustain operations. Budget and tax rate ordinances have been appropriately prepared authorizing the appropriation of all required funds. 3.02 Use of Current Revenues to Support Current Expenditures Ongoing and stable revenues will be used to support ongoing operating costs. FY 18 Budget Status: The budget is dependent on stable revenues and conservative revenue projections to support operations. 3.03 Use of One-time Revenue and One-time Expenditure Savings The use of one-time revenues and one-time expenditure savings (excess cash balances) will be used for non-recurring expenditures. FY 18 Budget Status: All one-time revenues are designated to support one-time expenditures. 18


CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA FINANCIAL POLICIES

3.04 Review of Fees and Charges Fees established by the City for licenses, permits, fines, services, applications and other miscellaneous charges shall be set to recover all or a portion of the City’s expense in providing the attendant service and reviewed annually with the development of the annual operating budget. FY 18 Budget Status: All City fees and charges are reviewed annually with revisions provided to recover a portion of the City’s expenses associated with the service provision. 3.05 Revenue and Expenditure Projections The City will prepare and annually update a long range (5 year) financial forecast model utilizing trend indicators and projections of annual operating revenues, expenditures, capital improvements and related debt service and operating costs, and fund balance levels. FY 18 Budget Status: A 5 year projection of revenues and expenditures has been prepared using conservative assumptions. This plan includes planned capital improvements, related debt service, operating costs, projected fund balance levels and required real estate tax rate adjustments. This report is provided as an appendix to the budget. 3.06 Budget Performance Monitoring The Finance Budget Division will maintain ongoing contact with the departmental fiscal officers during the process of the budget execution. Expenditure and revenue projections will be developed quarterly and reviewed with Departmental Directors, the Finance Committee of the City Council, the City Manager, and the City Council. The City Manager through the Budget Division of Finance will exercise appropriate fiscal management as necessary to live within the limits of the adopted budget. FY 18 Budget Status: Quarterly revenue and expenditure projections are provided to the City Manager and City Council. All required budget adjustments are reviewed and approved by the City Manager or designee to comply with budget requirements.

3.07 Maintenance of Capital Assets The budget should provide sufficient funds for regular repair and maintenance of capital assets. FY 18 Budget Status: The operating and capital budget provides adequate repair and maintenance funds to support City capital assets.

19


CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA FINANCIAL POLICIES

3.08 Fund Balance Levels The City will employ sound financial management principles to include the establishment of an unassigned fund balance sufficient to maintain required working capital and provide a reserve for unanticipated expenditures or emergencies, revenue shortfalls, and other non-recurring uses. The ratio of Unassigned General Fund balance as a percentage of Budgeted Governmental Funds Expenditures (net of the General Fund Contribution to Schools, transfer to other Governmental Funds, and Capital Projects Fund Expenditures) plus budgeted expenditures in the School Operating and Food Service Funds indicates the ability of the City to cope with unexpected financial problems or emergencies. The larger the Unassigned General Fund balance, the greater the City’s ability to cope with financial emergencies and fluctuations in revenue cycles. The City has established a target rate of 12% at the close of each fiscal year as computed on the upcoming budget year. Once the Unassigned general fund balance target is achieved by the City, it is intended to be maintained for the upcoming fiscal year from prior year surpluses and budgeted additions as available before any other needs are addressed. In the event Unassigned Fund Balance is required to be drawn below the 12% target rate due to an emergency (such as a natural disaster) or due to severe economic circumstances, the City will develop a plan to restore the Unassigned Fund Balance over the ensuing two to three years. Compliance with fund balance policy will be reviewed and reported to City Council at least annually in conjunction with the development of the operating budget and with any significant budget amendments made during the fiscal year. FY 18 Budget Status: The FY 18 Unassigned General Fund balance is projected to exceed the targeted 12% by the close of the fiscal year at 16.1%. 3.09 Self-Insurance Rate Stabilization Fund The City will strive to maintain a rate stabilization fund for its insured risks in an amount equal to 20% of anticipated annual premium costs. This rate stabilization fund may be reduced or increased by management based on professional judgment and anticipated claims cost estimates. FY 18 Budget Status: The projected balance in the Risk Fund at June 30, 2017 is anticipated to be sufficient to provide the required $3.5M in rate stabilization funds to support the FY 18 budget.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PLANNING 4.01 Capital Improvement Program In order to prepare and plan for upcoming capital needs, comply with debt ratio targets, schedule debt issuance, and systematically improve capital infrastructure, the City will annually prepare and adopt a minimum five-year Capital Improvements Plan. 20


CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA FINANCIAL POLICIES

The adopted Capital Improvements Plan will include major capital improvements and identify estimated revenue sources and annual operational costs for facilities to include anticipated debt service requirements. Capital improvements do not include routine maintenance on existing capital assets. FY 18 Budget Status: A 10 year Capital Improvements and Program Plan (CIP) is prepared and updated annually providing 5 years of detailed projects, revenue sources, debt requirements and annual operating costs. This plan is prepared by the City Manager and reviewed by a committee to include members of the Planning Commission and the City’s elected Finance Committee members. The Plan is reviewed, edited, and recommended by the Planning Commission to the City Council who in turn, reviews, edits and adopts the Plan for consideration of year one projects in the upcoming operating budget proposal. A current CIP was adopted by City Council in February 2017 for use in the FY 18 budget. 4.02 Pay-As-You-Go Capital Improvement Funding The City will develop an escalation plan to accomplish an annual allocation of an amount equal to 3% of the General Fund departmental expenditures (excluding transfers out, grants, fund balance and reserve allocations, debt service, and respective flow-through expenditures) to pay-as-you-go-capital improvements annually. The escalation plan will begin with the FY 08 adopted budget and shall be increased annually for the ensuing five (5) year period until the 3% target is achieved. FY 18 Budget Status: The budget includes $4,585,137 in cash funded projects or 3.1% of General Fund departmental expenditures for FY 18.

DEBT The City Council generally follows the guidelines listed below in making financial decisions on debt issuance. Adherence to these guidelines allows the City to plan for the necessary financing of capital projects while maintaining credit worthiness. In addition, continued adherence to these policies will ensure the City’s strong financial position. The City shall use an objective analytical approach to determine whether it can afford new or additional general purpose debt. This process shall use the City’s standards of affordability. These standards include the measures of debt service payments as a percent of current expenditures and debt as a percent of taxable real estate value. 5.01 Revenue Anticipation Notes (RANS) The City does not intend to issue tax or revenue anticipation notes (RANS) to fund government operations but rather to manage cash in a fashion that will prevent any borrowing to meet working capital needs. 21


CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA FINANCIAL POLICIES

The City may issue RANS in an extreme emergency beyond the City’s control or ability to forecast when the revenue source will be received subsequent to the timing of funds needed. Such issuances will be for a period not to exceed a one year period. 5.02 Bond Anticipation Notes (BANS) The City may issue Bond Anticipation Notes (BANS) in expectation of General Obligation or Revenue Bonds when cash is required in order to initiate or continue a capital project or when longterm markets do not appear appropriate but have a clear potential for improvement within the designated BAN time frame. The City will not issue Bond Anticipation Notes (BANS) for a period beyond two years. If the City issues a bond anticipation note for a capital project, the BAN will be converted to a long-term bond or redeemed at its expiration. 5.03 Letters of Credit The City may enter into a letter-of-credit (LOC) agreement when such an agreement is deemed prudent and advantageous. The City will prepare and distribute a request for proposals to qualified banks which includes terms and conditions that are acceptable to the City. 5.04 Lease Purchase Obligations Lease purchase and master lease obligations, including certificates of participation or lease revenue bonds, shall be considered as an alternative to long-term vendor leases. Such debt shall be subject to annual appropriation. 5.05 Public Private Partnerships The City recognizes the value of developing public-private partnerships. As such, public-private partnerships financings that require the City to provide capital or credit enhancement to a project will be considered in light of the following:     

The project is multi-faceted requiring coordinated and/or accelerated development; The project is non-traditional with mixed use of public and private components; The project calls for the bundling of design, construction and operation phases; or There is an urgent need to construct multiple facilities or other public infrastructure simultaneously to keep pace with a rapidly growing population. The project has undergone a rigorous cost-benefit analysis by City Staff (or agents employed by the City for such purpose). If the project ultimately requires City credit enhancement, such obligations will be treated as if debt by the City.

5.06 Compliance with Legal Requirements Pursuant to the Constitution of Virginia (the Constitution), the City is authorized to issue bonds secured by a pledge of its full faith and credit and unlimited taxing power. There is no requirement 22


CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA FINANCIAL POLICIES

in the Constitution, the Virginia Code or the City Charter that the issuance of general obligation bonds be subject to the approval of voters of the City at referendum. The issuance of general obligation bonds is subject to a constitutional limitation of ten percent (10%) of the assessed value of taxable real property. The City’s Charter further limits the issuance of general obligation bonds to seven percent (7%) of the assessed value of taxable property. 5.07 Debt Ratio Policies

Debt as a Percentage of Assessed Value This ratio indicates the relationship between the City’s debt and the total taxable value of real and personal property in the City. It is an important indicator of the City’s ability to repay debt, because property taxes are the source of the City’s revenues used to repay debt. A small ratio is an indication that the City will be better able to withstand possible future economic downturns and continue to meet its debt obligations. Debt as a Percentage of General Government Expenditures This ratio is a measure of the City’s ability to repay debt without hampering other City services. A smaller ratio indicates a lesser burden on the City’s operating budget. The numerator shall include debt that is not selfsupporting from a user fee revenue stream. A selfsupporting revenue stream is defined as a revenue stream that provides coverage of all debt service obligations without general fund support (to include tax assessment districts and funds supported by committed state revenues in support of such debt). Any long term financing lease obligations which may be subject to annual appropriation by the City will also be included in the calculations of tax-supported debt service. General governmental expenditures are expenditures reported in the City’s governmental funds (excluding the General Fund Contribution to Schools and the Capital Projects Fund) and expenditures reported in the School Operating and Food Service Funds.

CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA FINANCIAL POLICIES

5.08 Long Term Debt Policy The City will use debt financing for capital improvement projects and unusual equipment purchases under the following circumstances: A. When the project is included in the City’s capital improvement program and/or is generally in conformance with the City’s Comprehensive Plan. B. When the project is not included in the City’s Capital Improvement Program, but it is an emerging critical need whose timing was not anticipated in the Capital Improvement Program, or it is a project mandated immediately by state or federal requirements. C. When the project’s useful life, or the projected service life of the equipment, will be equal to or exceed the term of the financing. D. When there are designated revenues sufficient to service the debt, whether from project revenues, other specified and reserved resources, or infrastructure cost sharing revenues. The following criteria will be used to evaluate funding options for capital improvements: A. Factors that favor pay-as-you-go: 1. Current revenues and adequate fund balances are available. 2. Project phasing is feasible. 3. Debt levels would adversely affect the City’s credit rating. 4. Financial market conditions are unstable or present difficulties in marketing the sale of long-term financing investments. B. Factors that favor long-term financing: 1. Revenues available for debt service are considered sufficient and reliable so that longterm financing can be marketed with the highest possible credit rating. 2. The project for which financing is being considered is of the type that will allow the City to maintain the highest possible credit rating. 3. Market conditions present favorable interest rates and demand for municipal financings. 4. A project is mandated by state or federal requirements and current revenues and fund balances are insufficient to pay project costs. 5. A project is immediately required to meet or relieve capacity needs. There are many different types of long-term debt instruments available. Depending on the specific circumstances, the City will consider using the following types of financing instruments:      

General Obligation Bonds General Obligation Bonds sold to Virginia Public School Authority for School Capital Projects Revenue Bonds Certificates of Participation Lease Revenue Bonds Selected State Pooled-Borrowing Programs for Utility Revenue Bonds, Including Those of the Virginia Resources Authority.

CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA FINANCIAL POLICIES

5.09 Bond Structure The City shall establish all terms and conditions relating to the issuance of bonds, and will invest all bond proceeds pursuant to the terms of the City’s Investment Policy. Unless otherwise authorized by the City, the following shall serve as bond requirements: 1. Term. All capital improvements financed through the issuance of debt will be financed for a period not to exceed the useful life of the improvements, but in no event will the term exceed thirty (30) years. 2. Capitalized Interest. From time to time certain financings may require the use of capitalized interest from the issuance date until the City has beneficial use and/or occupancy of the financed project. Interest shall not be funded (capitalized) beyond three years or a shorter period if further restricted by law. Interest earnings may, at the City’s discretion, be applied to extend the term of capitalized interest but in no event beyond the term allowed by law. 3. Debt Service Structure. Debt issuance shall be planned to achieve relatively equal payment of principal (declining debt service) while matching debt service to the useful life of facilities. The City shall avoid the use of bullet or balloon maturities except in those instances where these maturities serve to make existing overall debt service level. The City may elect a less rapid or other debt service structure, such as level debt service at its discretion. 4. Call Provisions. In general, the City’s debt will include an early redemption (or “call”) feature, which is no later than 10 years from the date of delivery of the bonds. The City will avoid the sale of non-callable bonds absent careful, documented evaluation by the City in conjunction with its financial advisor with respect to the value of the call option. 5. Original Issue Discount. An original issue discount will be permitted if the City determines that such discount results in a lower true interest cost on the bonds and that the use of an original issue discount will not adversely affect the project funding. 6. Deep Discount Bonds. Deep discount bonds may provide a lower cost of borrowing in certain markets. The City will carefully consider their value and effect on any future refinancings as a result of the lower-than-market coupon associated with deep discount bonds. 7. Derivative Structures. Alternative, non-traditional financing structures such as derivatives are becoming more common in the municipal market. Structured properly, these products frequently provide a means for the City to achieve its goals in a cost effective manner. The City will consider the use of derivatives as a hedge against future interest rate risk or to create “synthetic” fixed rate or variable rate debt, when appropriate. The City will not use derivative structures for speculative or investment purposes. The City will consider the use of derivative structures when it is able to gain a comparative borrowing advantage, and is able to quantify and understand potential risks. Prior to the use of such structures, the City will consider the adoption of a comprehensive Swap and Derivative Management Plan that is consistent and does not conflict in principle with this governing policy. Prior to use of a derivative structure, the City will provide written communication to City Council describing potential risks associated with each proposed derivative structure. 25


CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA FINANCIAL POLICIES

5.10 Variable Rate Debt To maintain a predictable debt service burden, the City may give preference to debt that carries a fixed interest rate. The City, however, may consider variable rate debt. The percentage of variable rate debt outstanding (excluding debt which has been converted to synthetic fixed rate debt) shall not exceed 20% of the City’s total outstanding debt and will take into consideration the amount and investment strategy of the City’s operating cash. The City will consider issuing variable rate debt to: a) Match Asset and Liabilities: By issuing variable rate debt the City matches variable interest rates to its short-term investment assets. b) Potentially Lower Debt Service Costs: Historically variable interest rates are less than fixed rate cost of capital. c) Add Flexibility and Diversity to the City’s Debt Structure: Variable rate bonds are traditionally callable every 30 days and can generally be refunded on a fixed rate basis to take advantage of low fixed rates and open up variable rate capacity for higher rate environments. In determining its use of variable rate debt, the City will utilize an analysis from the City’s Financial Advisor evaluating and quantifying the risks and returns involved in the variable rate financing. 5.11 Refinanced Outstanding Debt The Director of Finance with assistance from the City’s Financial Advisor will have the responsibility to analyze outstanding bond issues for refunding opportunities. The City will consider the following issues when analyzing possible refunding opportunities: 1. Refunding Policy. The City establishes a minimum aggregate present value savings threshold of 3% of the refunding bond principal amount. The present value savings will be net of all costs related to the refinancing. Debt service savings may be taken in equal amounts over time or on an upfront or deferred basis, at the City’s discretion. 2. Restructuring. The City will refund debt when it is in the best financial interest of the City to do so. Such refundings will be limited to restructuring to meet unanticipated revenue expectations, achieve costs savings, mitigate irregular debt service payments release reserve funds or remove unduly restrictive bond covenants. 3. Term of Refunding Issues. The City will refund bonds within the term of the originally issued debt. However, the City may consider maturity extension, when necessary to achieve a desired outcome, provided that such extension is legally permissible. The City may also consider shortening the term of the originally issued debt to realize greater savings. The remaining useful life of the financed facility and the concept of inter-generational equity should guide this decision.

26


CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA FINANCIAL POLICIES

4. Escrow Structuring. The City shall utilize the least costly securities available in structuring refunding escrows. A certificate will be provided by a third party agent stating that the securities were procured through an arms-length, competitive bid process (in the case of open market securities), and that the price paid for the securities was reasonable within Federal guidelines. Under no circumstances shall an underwriter, agent or financial advisor sell escrow securities to the City from its own account. 5. Arbitrage. The City shall take all necessary steps to optimize escrows and to avoid negative arbitrage in its refundings. Any resulting positive arbitrage will be rebated as necessary according to Federal guidelines. 5.12 Methods of Issuance The City will determine the method of issuance on a case-by-case basis. 1. Competitive Sale. In a competitive sale, the City’s bonds shall be awarded to the bidder providing the lowest true interest cost as long as the bid adheres to the requirements set forth in the official note of sale. 2. Negotiated Sale. The City recognizes that some securities are best sold through negotiation. In its consideration of a negotiated sale, the City shall assess the following circumstances: a. Bonds issued as variable rate demand obligations b. A structure which may require a strong pre-marketing effort such as a complex transaction or a “story” bond c. Size of the issue which may limit the number of potential bidders d. Market volatility is such that the City would be better served by flexibility in timing a sale in a changing interest rate environment 3. Private Placement. From time to time the City may elect to privately place its debt. Such placement shall be considered if other methods are not viable. 5.13 Bond Insurance The City may purchase bond insurance when such purchase is deemed prudent and advantageous. Use of bond insurance shall be based on such insurance being less costly than the present value of the difference between the interest on insured bonds versus uninsured bonds. In the case of a competitive sale, the City may permit bidders for its bonds to purchase bond insurance if such insurance will enhance the market reception and lower the interest rate on the City’s bonds. The City will submit an application for pre-qualification for insurance to facilitate bidders’ ability to purchase bond insurance. The winning bidder in a competitive sale will bear any associated cost with such enhancement. In the instance of a negotiated sale, the City will solicit quotes for bond insurance from interested providers. The City will select a provider whose bid is most cost effective and whose terms and conditions governing the guarantee are satisfactory to the City. 27


CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA FINANCIAL POLICIES

5.14 Use of Special Districts The City may consider using special districts such as Tax Increment Financing Districts, Community Development Authorities and special taxing districts to finance projects that:      

Strengthen the employment and economic base of the City; Increase property values and tax revenues; Reduce poverty; Create economic stability; Facilitate economic self-sufficiency; or Assist in implementing the City’s economic development strategies.

Before using such districts, the City will consider the fiscal impact, the market feasibility and credit implications of the project or district. 5.15 Debt Service Reserves If necessary, the City may establish a reserve fund funded from bond proceeds, subject to federal tax regulations and in accordance with the requirements of credit enhancement providers and/or rating agencies. The City may purchase reserve equivalents (i.e., a reserve fund surety or letter of credit) when such purchase is deemed prudent and advantageous. Such equivalents shall be evaluated in comparison to cash funding of reserves on a net present value basis. 5.16 Underwriter Selection Senior Manager Selection. The City shall select a senior manager for any proposed negotiated sales. The selection criteria shall include but not be limited to the following:      

The firm’s ability and experience in managing transactions similar to that contemplated by the City Prior knowledge and experience with the City The firm’s ability and willingness to risk capital and demonstration of such risk and capital availability Quality and experience of personnel assigned to the City’s engagement Financing plan presented Underwriting fees

In addition to their qualifications, co-managers appointed to specific transactions will be a function of transaction size and the necessity to ensure maximum distribution of the City’s bonds. Selling Groups. The City may establish selling groups in certain transactions. To the extent that selling groups are used, the Director of Finance at his or her discretion, may make appointments to selling groups from within the pool of underwriters or from outside the pool, as the transaction dictates. 28


CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA FINANCIAL POLICIES

Underwriter’s Counsel. In any negotiated sale of City debt in which legal counsel is required to represent the underwriter, the appointment will be made by the Senior Manager with input from the City. Underwriter’s Discount. The Director of Finance with assistance from the City’s financial advisor will evaluate the proposed underwriter’s discount against comparable issues in the market. If there are multiple underwriters in the transaction, the Director of Finance will determine the allocation of underwriting liability and management fees. The allocation of fees will be determined prior to the sale date; a cap on management fee, expenses and underwriter’s counsel will be established and communicated to all parties by the Director of Finance. The senior manager shall submit an itemized list of expenses charged to members of the underwriting group. Any additional expenses must be substantiated. Evaluation of Underwriter Performance. The City will evaluate each bond sale after completion to assess the following: costs of issuance including underwriters’ compensation, pricing of the bonds in terms of the overall interest cost and on a maturity-by-maturity basis, and the distribution of bonds and sales credits. Following each sale, the Director of Finance shall provide a report to the City Manager and City Council on the results of the sale. Syndicate Policies. For each negotiated transaction, the Director of Finance will prepare syndicate policies that will describe the designation policies governing the upcoming sale. The Director of Finance shall ensure receipt of each member’s acknowledgement of the syndicate policies for the upcoming sale prior to the sale date. Designation Policies. To encourage the pre-marketing efforts of each member of the underwriting team, orders for the City’s bonds will be net designated, unless otherwise expressly stated. The City shall require the senior manager to:   

Equitably allocate bonds to other managers and the selling group Comply with MSRB regulations governing the priority of orders and allocations Within 10 working days after the sale date, submit to the Director of Finance a detail of orders, allocations and other relevant information pertaining to the City’s sale.

Bond Counsel. City debt will include a written opinion by legal counsel affirming that the City is authorized to issue the proposed debt, that the City has met all legal requirements necessary for issuance and a determination of the proposed debt’s federal income tax status.

The Bond Counsel will be selected by the City. Disclosure by Financing Team Members. All financing team members will be required to provide full and complete disclosure, relative to agreements with other financing team members and outside parties. The extent of disclosure may vary depending on the nature of the transaction. However, in general terms, no agreements shall be permitted which could compromise the firm’s ability to provide independent advice which is solely in the City’s best interests or which could reasonably be perceived as a conflict of interest. 5.18 City Financial Disclosure The City is committed to full and complete financial disclosure, and to cooperating fully with rating agencies, institutional and individual investors, City departments, and the general public to share clear, comprehensive, and accurate financial information. The City is committed to meeting secondary market disclosure requirements on a timely and comprehensive basis.

CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA FINANCIAL POLICIES

UTILITY FUND It is the intent to reflect the financial policies of the Utility Fund to provide for adequate cash management and bond coverage for the operation of the system. 6.01 Independence The Utility Fund will maintain financial independence from the General Fund by: a. Continuing the funding of all Utility Enterprise Fund revenue requirements from the Utility Enterprise Fund, thereby receiving no financial support from the General Fund. b. Issuing self-supporting debt payable solely from the Utility Enterprise Fund. 6.02 Unrestricted Cash and Long Term Investments Balance It is the intent of the Utility Enterprise Fund to have adequate cash reserves to provide for ninety days of operating activity including debt service. Current unrestricted cash and cash equivalent balances plus operating long term investments will be at a target percentage rate of 25% of the operating expenses less depreciation expense plus current debt expenses (principal and interest). If the Unrestricted Cash and Long Term Investments Balance fall below the target level, the utility system will have twenty four months to bring the balance back in line with the target level. 6.03 Amortization The Utility Fund will continue to amortize bond issues so the useful life of the project being financed is not exceeded. 6.04 Debt Service Coverage Ratio Net Revenues should be at least 1.15 times the annual debt service requirement. Net Revenues shall be defined as operating revenues plus availability charges plus interest income plus contributions from Western Tidewater Water Authority less operating expenses plus depreciation and amortization. Excess revenues will be available to first build and maintain the Utility enterprise Cash and Cash Equivalents plus Long Term Investments then secondly to provide equity funding for future capital projects. Over time adherence to this policy will reduce the overall amount of debt issued by the City for various utility projects. 6.05 Asset Replacement and System Extension After the completion of the City’s new water treatment facility (estimated completion is 2015), the City will review the amount of funds being set aside for replacement and/or extension of all Utility system assets such that new assets will not be 100 percent debt financed.

General Fund revenue is comprised of general property tax revenue (60%), other local tax revenue (21%), revenue from fees and charges (4%), state revenue (10%), federal revenue (3%), and fund transfers (2%). General Fund revenue is projected to increase 3.2% over the previous year budget in FY 18 to $202.1M. General Fund Revenue

General Property Taxes General property taxes account for approximately 60% of General Fund revenue and consist of taxes on real estate, personal property (i.e. airplanes, boats, cars, trucks, trailers, mobile homes, recreational vehicles and machinery and tools), public service corporation taxes, and penalties and interest. Real estate tax revenue is the City’s largest source of revenue, comprising 48% of General Fund revenue. A 2% or $2.1M increase in real estate tax revenue is projected in FY 18. The assessed value of real estate increased 2.06% in the latest reassessment. Assessed value growth of existing properties accounted for 1.56% of the increase, while new construction garnered .50% of the total increase in assessed value. The real estate tax rate will remain unchanged at $1.07 per $100 of assessed value in FY 18. Personal property tax revenue, which accounts for nearly 10% of General Fund revenue, is projected to increase 5% over the FY 17 budgeted amount or $900,000 in FY 18. The projected increase is based on analysis of current assessed values and historic trends.

61


Other Local Taxes Other local taxes include levies on sales and use, communications sales, utilities, business licenses, motor vehicle licenses, bank stock, recordation and probate, tobacco, admissions, lodging and meals. Other local tax revenue is projected to increase 6% or $2.4M in FY 18. Local taxes driving the 6% increase include admissions (20%), lodging (18%), sales and use (11%), business licenses (9%), motor vehicle licenses (4%), and meals (3%). New office, commercial, retail, and restaurant developments in central and northern Suffolk have bolstered local tax revenue in recent years. Continued economic growth and development is anticipated in the next fiscal year. Revenue from Fees and Charges Revenue from fees and charges account for 3% of all General Fund revenue and consist of permits, privilege fees, and regulatory licenses; fines & forfeitures; revenue from the use of money and property; charges for services; miscellaneous revenue; and recovered costs. Revenue from fees and charges is projected to slightly decrease by 2% in FY 18. A decrease of 36% is anticipated in fine & forfeitures and a 3% decrease in revenue from use of money. These decreases are due to trend estimates over the past three years. However, some of the decreases will be offset by a 6% increase in permits, privilege fees, and regulatory licenses, a 2% increase in charges for services and a 3% increase in total recovered costs. Â

Permits, Privilege Fees, and Regulatory Licenses Revenue from permits, privilege fees, and regulatory licenses consists of revenue from animal licenses, land use applications, land transfers, zoning, use and ordinances, building and weapons permits, borrow pit fees, and fishing and other miscellaneous permits. Based on current trends revenue from permit, privilege fees and regulatory licenses are projected to increase 6% or approximately $60,000 in FY 18. The increased revenue is due to building and weapons permits which are trending higher.

62


Fines & Forfeitures Revenue from fines and forfeitures is comprised of General District Court fines, parking fines and violation fees, and false alarm violation fees. Revenue from fines and forfeitures is projected to decrease by 36% or $300,000 in FY 18 due to a decrease in General District Court fines based on current trends. Revenue from Use of Money and Property Revenue from the use of money and property consists of interest earned on investments, bond proceeds, and the rental of City facilities. A 3% decrease or $21,153 is projected in FY 18. The decrease is primarily due to adjustments in antenna space rental due to current trends. Charges for Services Charges for Services includes fees and charges for emergency medical service, court security, animal adoptions, recreation and special events, grave openings, and sale of service revenue to other City funds. Revenue from Charges for Services is projected to increase 2% or $80,450 in FY 18. The increase is primarily due to sale of service revenue for capital project management and police weights and measures services provided by the General Fund to other City funds. Miscellaneous Revenue Miscellaneous revenue is comprised of delinquent tax collection fees; tourism gift shop sales; gifts, donations, and contributions and payments in lieu of taxes from the Suffolk Redevelopment and Housing Authority. Miscellaneous revenue is projected to remain flat at $666,000 in FY 18. Recovered Costs Recovered costs include reimbursements from other localities, the Suffolk School Board, and the Department of Social Services. Recovered cost revenue is projected to increase 3% or $17,098 in FY 18 due to reimbursements from the school division for public safety services. State Revenue Revenue from the Commonwealth of Virginia represents approximately 10% of General Fund revenue and includes non-categorical aid, shared expenses, and categorical aid. State revenue is projected to remain flat at $20.9M in FY 18. Non-Categorical Aid The City receives various sources of non-categorical aid from the Commonwealth of Virginia including motor vehicle carrier, mobile home titling, rolling stock, deeds/grantors, and vehicle rental tax revenue, as well as House Bill 599 (police operational aid) and personal property tax relief funding. Non-categorical aid is projected to slightly increase by 1% in FY 18. Shared Expenses The City receives funding from the Commonwealth of Virginia Compensation Board for the shared expenses of operating state-assisted local offices including the offices of the Commonwealth’s Attorney, Sheriff, Commissioner of the Revenue, Treasurer, Voter Registrar, and Circuit Court Clerk. State shared expense revenue is projected to increase slightly by 1% in FY 18.

63


Categorical Aid The City receives categorical aid from the Commonwealth of Virginia for specific locally administered programs and services including social services, public safety, courthouse maintenance, and library services. Categorical aid is projected to decrease 3% in FY 18 to $4.4M based on state aid estimates for social services programs. Federal Revenue The City receives federal revenue for emergency services, the food stamp program, and temporary assistance for needy families. Federal revenue is projected to increase 2% or $122,851 to approximately $5.2M in FY 18.

Other Funds In addition to the General Fund, the City also has 16 other funds which account for the proceeds of revenue sources that are legally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes. These funds include the Capital Projects Fund, the Debt Service Fund, seven special revenue funds (Aviation, Consolidated Grants, Downtown Business Overlay Taxing District, Road Maintenance, Law Library, Route 17 Special Taxing District, and Transit), three enterprise funds (Utility, Stormwater Utility, and Refuse), three internal service funds (Fleet Management, Information Technology, and Risk Management), and one discreetly presented component unit, the Schools Fund. Capital Projects Fund The Capital Projects Fund budget for FY 18 is $68.3M which represents no change over FY 17. The Capital Projects Fund derives revenues from the issuance of bonds, state and federal grants, and fund transfers. The Capital Projects Fund is supported by the following funding sources: $27.7M general obligation bonds (40%), $24.3M state and federal funds, (36%), $5.2M transfer from other funds (8%), $5.0M public utility bonds (7%), $4.6M general funds cash (7%), and $1.5M cash proffers (2%).

Capital Projects Fund Revenue Sources FY 2017‐2018

General Obligation Bonds 40%

Public Utility Revenue Bonds 7%

State and Federal Grants 36%

General Fund Cash 7% Transfer from Cash Proffers Other Funds 8% 2%

64


Debt Service Fund The Debt Service Fund is used to account for the payment of general long term debt principal, interest, and related costs associated with projects that are debt financed. Revenues in this fund are derived through the transfer of funds from the General Fund, Route 17 Special Taxing District Fund, and the Consolidated Grants Fund. The Debt Service Fund budget will decrease 9% in FY 18 to $27.2M. Special Revenue Funds Special Revenue Funds provide for revenue derived from specific sources other than major capital projects that are restricted by legal and regulatory provisions to finance specific activities. Downtown Business Overlay Taxing District Fund The Downtown Business Overlay Taxing District (DBOD) provides for revenues and expenditures related to enhanced services provided in a specifically designated area of downtown Suffolk. Revenues are derived from an additional real estate tax levy of $.105 assessed on properties located within the district’s boundaries. The projected DBOD revenue for FY 18 is $176,222 or 5% increase over FY 17. The increase is attributable to an increase in the assessed value of real estate of 6.58% in the DBOD per the most recent real estate reassessment. Road Maintenance Fund The Road Maintenance Fund accounts for revenues and expenditures related to the maintenance of roads and bridges. Revenues are derived primarily from the State Urban Street Maintenance Program and sale of services to other funds. The Road Maintenance Fund budget for FY 18 is $26.2M, a 6% decrease over FY 17. The reduction is due primarily to a decline in developer traffic signal contributions and decreased reliance on fund balance for capital projects in FY 18. State revenue, which is based on a funding formula accounting for roadway miles in the City, is projected to remain flat at $23.4M in FY 18. Consolidated Grants Fund The Consolidated Grants Fund accounts for revenues and expenditures of grant and local matching funds provided for various programs and services. Budgeted revenue includes a transfer from the General Fund, which is used for required local matching funds to state and federal grants accepted and appropriated during the fiscal year, as well as a portion of federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) entitlement funds used for debt payments against a HUD Section 108 loan acquired by the City to revitalize the Fairgrounds section of downtown. The Consolidated Grants Fund budget for FY 18 is $424,594, a 35% decrease over FY 17 due to a reduction in CDBG entitlement funds needed for the City’s required Section 108 loan payment. Law Library Fund The Law Library Fund provides for the operation, maintenance, and purchase of legal materials for the Suffolk Law Library. Revenues are obtained through the collection of fees on court cases processed in the Circuit and General District courts. The Law Library Fund budget for FY 18 is $41,561, a 1% decrease over FY 17. Route 17 Special Taxing District Fund The Route 17 Special Taxing District Fund accounts for revenues and expenditures related to enhanced economic development and transportation services provided in a specifically designated area of northern Suffolk. Revenues are derived from an additional real estate tax levy 65


of $.24 assessed on properties located within the district’s boundaries. The projected revenue for FY 18 is $1.8M or a 33% increase over FY 17. The increase is attributable to an increase in the assessed value of real estate of 4.66% in the Route 17 Special Taxing District per the most recent real estate reassessment. Aviation Facilities Fund The Aviation Facilities Fund accounts for the revenues and expenditures of the Suffolk Executive Airport. Fund revenues are comprised of fuel sales (66%), rental of facilities such as airport hangars (26%), miscellaneous revenue to include an airport usage fee (1%), and the transfer of funding support from the General Fund (7%). The Aviation Facilities Fund budget for FY 18 is approximately $1M, a 1% decrease over FY 17. Transit Fund The Transit Fund accounts for the revenues and expenditures of Suffolk’s transit service, which is outsourced to the Virginia Regional Transit Authority (VRTA), and includes six bus routes and ADA service. The Transit Fund derives revenues from General Fund transfers (50%), state and federal funding (45%), and fare collections (5%). The Transit Fund budget for FY 18 is approximately $1.6M, a 42% increase over FY 17 due to an increase in federal funding. Enterprise Funds Enterprise funds are used to account for operations that are financed and operated in a manner similar to private business enterprises. The intent of enterprise funds is for the costs of providing goods or services to the general public to be financed or recovered primarily through user charges. Utility Fund The Utility Fund provides for water and sewer services to City residents and businesses. All activities necessary to provide these services are accounted for in this fund, including, but not limited to, administration, operation, maintenance, billing, collections, capital financing and related debt service and fixed assets of the water and sewer systems. The Utility Fund is designed to be self-sustaining. The Utility Fund budget for FY 18 is approximately $52.7M, a 5% increase over FY 17. The Utility Fund derives revenues through charges for water and sewer service, water and sewer availability charges, bulk water sales, meter service charges, hydrant rentals, capital contributions from development, capitalized interest, bond rebates, special fees, sale of services, and miscellaneous revenue. Water and sewer rates will increase $.17 (water) and $.24 (sewer) monthly per 100 cubic feet in FY 18 to address state and federal regulatory mandates and system growth. Stormwater Fund The Stormwater Fund provides for the operation, management, construction and maintenance of stormwater facilities, as well as mosquito control services. A stormwater fee of $6.00 per month is assessed on all residential units. Commercial businesses pay a multiple of the equivalent residential unit. The stormwater fee is a result of the Federal Clean Water Act of 1972 and amendments thereafter which require cities to make improvements to reduce the amount of pollution from stormwater runoff. No federal or state funding is provided to offset the cost of the water quality measures. The Fund earns additional revenue through permit and inspection fees paid by developers based on a percentage of hard surface coverage required for development and the sale of services such as engineering services to other City funds. The Stormwater Fund 66


budget for FY 18 is approximately $6.1M, a 3% decrease over FY 17. The reduction is due to decreased utilization of the Stormwater Fund Balance for capital improvements in FY 18. Refuse Fund The Refuse Fund accounts for the revenues and expenditures of the City’s refuse collection and recycling services which include citywide refuse, recycling, and bulk refuse pickup. The Fund is designed to be self-sustaining through revenue generated by fees for refuse collection, the sale of trash cans, and sale of service to other City funds. The Refuse Fund budget for FY 18 is approximately $7.6M, a 24% increase over FY 17. The City is increasing the refuse collection fee by $3.00 a month from $16.50 to $19.50 per month in FY 18 to address tipping fee expenses of the regional landfill operator, the Southeastern Public Service Authority (SPSA). Internal Service Funds Internal service funds are used to account for the operational cost of services provided to other city departments. Revenue is derived from charges on a cost reimbursement basis. The internal service funds include the Fleet Management Fund, Information Technology Fund, and Risk Management Fund. Information Technology Fund The Information Technology Fund provides for the operation and maintenance of the City’s technology infrastructure including computer, software, and telephone systems. The cost of operating these systems is allocated to the various city departments and agencies on a cost reimbursement basis. The Information Technology Fund budget for FY 18 is approximately $8.7M, a 12% increase over FY 17. Fleet Management Fund The Fleet Management Fund accounts for the revenue and expenditures of the City’s centralized fleet management program including vehicle and equipment acquisition, maintenance, repairs, and fuel. Operating costs are allocated to city departments and agencies that use fleet equipment and assets on a cost reimbursement basis. The Fleet Management Fund budget for FY 18 is approximately $15.6M, a 27% increase over FY 17. The increase is attributable to the increased utilization of unrestricted fleet fund balance for vehicle and equipment replacements and additions, as opposed to debt financing. Risk Management Fund The Risk Management Fund provides for the funding and payment of auto, general liability, health and worker’s compensation claims against the City.

The CIP is developed annually to plan for the renovation and construction of significant public improvements and major equipment to be purchased over a 10 year period. The first five years serves as the capital improvements program, while the plan covers the 10 year horizon. The CIP is intended to:   

Build facilities to support the City’s public service responsibilities Improve financial planning by comparing needs with resources, operating impacts, and annual tax rate implications Prioritize limited available funds for projects that will have a positive impact for Suffolk citizens

Eligible Projects Projects are eligible for inclusion in the CIP if they meet the following criteria: 

The project cost is at least $50,000. Projects that do not cost at least $50,000 are not eligible for inclusion in the CIP unless they are part of a larger project that meets this threshold. For example, furniture and fixtures which cost less than $50,000, but are part of a larger renovation or new construction project would be eligible.

The estimated service life of the project is at least five (5) years.

Expenditures for items that are annual in nature such as salaries, office supplies, personal computers and software, office furniture, routine maintenance and service contracts, vehicles and equipment or soft or non-durable purchases are not appropriate to include in the capital program. Exceptions are made for ambulances, fire trucks, or similar vehicles and equipment with long service lives or items that are part of a larger project with an estimated value of $50,000 or greater. CIP Development Process The CIP development process begins in September of each year. The Finance Department’s Division of Budget and Strategic Planning sends out CIP request packages and instructions to City departments and agencies at the beginning of September. Requests are typically due back to the Division of Budget and Strategic Planning at the end of September. The requests are compiled and reviewed and compiled by the Budget Division staff and meetings with the requesting departments and agencies are held with the City Manager, Deputy City Manager, Director of Finance, and Budget staff. Following these meetings, the City Manager’s recommended CIP is developed and presented to the CIP Subcommittee which consists of the Mayor, Vice Mayor, and two designated members of the Planning Commission. The CIP Subcommittee meets with the City Manager and requesting departments and agencies to review the recommended CIP and direct any edits or adjustments. The CIP Subcommittee recommended CIP is then presented to the full Planning Commission. The Planning Commission directs any edits or adjustments and the document is then moved forward to the City Council for review. A public hearing to obtain citizen input on the proposed CIP is held by City Council. Following the public hearing, City Council directs any edits and adopts the CIP prior to the development of the

223


annual operating and capital budget. The first year of the adopted CIP is moved forward for consideration as part of the City Manager’s proposed annual operating and capital budget. It is important to note that even if a capital project is included in the adopted CIP, it only moves forward to implementation if included in the adopted operating and capital budget. Financial Evaluation The City places significant emphasis on affordability and adherence to its adopted financial policies in developing the CIP and the annual operating and capital budget. City staff works closely with its financial advisor to determine the City’s debt capacity prior to the development of the CIP. Debt capacity is the amount of debt or bond financing that the City can comfortably borrow for needed capital improvements taking into consideration its existing outstanding debt levels, conservative economic growth forecasts, and anticipated operating expenses. This analysis is focused on the first five years of the CIP. In formulating the proposed CIP, the City strives to maintain bond financing at or below debt capacity levels. Additionally, staff also evaluates the proposed CIP’s ability to adhere to key financial policies of the City including: Capital Pay-Go – The City strives to achieve a target level equal to 3% of General Fund departmental expenditures excluding transfers out, grants, fund balance and reserve allocations, debt service and respective flow-through expenditures toward pay-as-you-go-capital improvements annually. Essentially, this means that the City will cash fund a portion of its planned capital projects. Debt as a Percentage of Assessed Value – The City strives to maintain a ratio of Debt as a Percentage of Assessed Value below 4%. This ratio indicates the relationship between the City’s debt and the total taxable value of real and personal property in the City. The ratio is an indicator of the City’s ability to repay debt which is paid for with property tax revenue. Debt to General Government Expenditures – The City strives to maintain Debt as a Percentage of General Government Expenditures below 10%. This ratio is a measure of the City’s ability to repay debt without hampering other City services. A small ratio indicates a lesser burden on the City’s operating budget. Another important factor that is evaluated as part of CIP development is the financial impact that a capital project will have on future operating costs of the City. The City must evaluate and plan for the ongoing costs of operating a new or expanded capital facility or piece of equipment. As a result, departments and agencies are required to estimate the annual operating cost/recurring expenditures for each project that is submitted for consideration in the CIP. For example, the addition of a new recreation center requires additional staffing, utility, landscaping, and routine maintenance expenses. Similarly, a new school, without the closing of another similar facility, requires the hiring of teachers, support staff, and administrative personnel, utility costs, landscaping, and routine maintenance expenses. Additionally, debt service payments (principal and interest) must be accounted for the bonds issued to finance these projects. These are real costs that will have an impact on future operating budgets. As a result, the CIP includes a fund summary of the estimated annual operating impact of proposed capital projects and the corresponding impact on the real estate tax rate assuming no assessed value growth or growth in other local taxes.

224


Sources of Funding Capital projects are financed by a variety of funding sources including: 

General Fund Revenue – Funding derived from General Fund Revenue (real and personal property taxes, other local taxes such as sales and meals taxes, fines and forfeitures, charges for services, use of money and property, and miscellaneous revenue) is used to fund a portion of general government capital projects. General Fund revenue is the primary revenue source for achieving the City’s Capital Pay-Go policy which strives to ensure that not all general government capital projects are financed with 100% bond funding or debt. General Fund revenue is typically targeted toward capital projects with shorter life spans. This strategy prevents the City from repaying debt for longer time periods than the useful life of an asset. Bonds are typically financed over a 20 to 30 year period. As such, it is to the City’s advantage to pay for projects, such as the capital maintenance of general government buildings and park facilities and amenities, sidewalks, and equipment with General Fund cash.

Bond Financing– A major source of capital funding is municipal bonds or in debt issued by the City to investors on the open financial market. The City has the ability to issue general obligation bonds and revenue bonds. General obligation bonds are backed by the full faith and credit of the City, while revenue bonds finance income-producing projects. The cost of issuing general obligation bonds or revenue bonds is dependent upon the City’s credit rating and market conditions. Maintaining a high credit rating allows the City to obtain lower interest rates. The City receives credit ratings from national credit rating agencies including Fitch Ratings, Moody’s, and Standard & Poor’s.

Fee Revenue – The City may use enterprise fund revenue generated from user fees such as stormwater or public utility water and sewer fees to offset the cost of capital projects specific to these enterprise fund operations. The use of fee revenue allows a portion of capital projects for business type enterprises such as Stormwater and Public Utilities to be cash funded which helps to limit borrowing or debt financing.

State and Federal Funding – The City seeks state and federal grant funds to offset the cost of capital improvements whenever possible. State and federal grant funds are typically available for parks and recreation, stormwater, and transportation improvements.

Private Contributions – Funding derived from private contributions and proffers are dedicated to offset the cost of specific infrastructure improvements such as schools, transportation, public safety, and parks and recreation.

DEBT SERVICE The City of Suffolk maintains a separate Debt Service Fund that tracks long-term debt obligations for General and Special Revenue Fund activities. Debt activity for Enterprise and Internal Service are maintained in the respective individual funds. The Debt Service Fund accounts for the accumulation of resources for and the payment of General and Special Revenue Fund long term debt principal, interest, and related costs. Revenues in this Fund consist primarily of a transfer of the citywide revenues generated from the various general property and local tax revenues of the General Fund. The City borrows money by issuing bonds or bank notes for the acquisition, construction, and renovation of public facilities and infrastructure as well as major equipment purchases. The City uses an objective analytical approach to determine whether it can afford new or additional general purpose debt to include measures of annual debt service payments as a percent of current expenditures and amount of outstanding debt as a percent of taxable real estate value in the City. The rate of interest paid for long-term debt is determined by the competitive aspect of the bond and finance institution market based upon credit ratings from Standard and Poor’s, Moody’s, and Fitch rating agencies. The better the City’s credit rating score, the lower the interest rate charged on the borrowing. The highest credit rating that can be attained is Triple A (AAA or Aaa). The City currently enjoys a strong credit rating with all of these institutions as follows: Rating Agency Moody's Standard & Poor's Fitch

Bond Rating Aa1 AAA AAA

Pursuant to the Constitution of Virginia, the City is authorized to issue bonds secured by a pledge of its full faith and credit and unlimited taxing power. There is no requirement in the Constitution, the Virginia Code, or the City Charter that the issuance of general obligation bonds be subject to the approval of voters of the City at referendum. The issuance of general obligation bonds is subject to a constitutional limitation of ten percent (10%) of the assessed value of taxable real property. The City’s Charter further limits the issuance of general obligation bonds to seven percent (7%) and the City’s Financial Policy further limits to four percent (4%) of the assessed value of taxable property. The City sometimes uses short-term obligations (e.g. Bond Anticipation Notes, Capital Leases, and Lines of Credit) to bridge the time gap between the initiation of a project/purchase and the anticipated bond issuance, when the nature of a purchase precludes the issuance of long-term debt, or when it is fiscally prudent and advantageous.

It has been the City’s practice to use a conservative approach by budgeting for the greater of depreciation or principal consistent with the financial statement presentation basis. The adopted FY 18 budget includes depreciation expenses to adequately cover the $3,393,994 of required principal for capital leases.

CITY GOVERNMENT, HISTORY, AND COMMUNITY ATTRACTIONS CITY GOVERNMENT The City of Suffolk is organized under the Council-Manager form of government as defined under the Code of Virginia. The governing body of the City is the City Council which establishes policies, sets goals and priorities, and interprets and represents the needs of the community to ensure the economic, social, educational, and physical quality of the City. The City Council consists of eight members: the Mayor elected at large and one member from each of the seven voting boroughs who are elected for four year terms by the voters of the borough in which the member resides. The City Council appoints a City Manager to act as the administrative head of the City. The City Manager directs the general operation of the city government in order to meet the needs of its constituents in accordance with the policies established by the City Council. The City Manager establishes service priorities and advises City Council members about the financial requirements needed to provide services to the community. Each fiscal year, the City Manager prepares and submits a proposed budget to the City Council, which is consistent with the identified goals and priorities of the City. The City Manager also interacts with various elements of the community, including members of the legislative delegation, the business community, civic organizations, and other government bodies. HISTORY The area around Suffolk, Virginia, which is now an independent city in the Hampton Roads region in the southeastern part of the state, was originally inhabited by Native Americans. At the time of European contact, the Nansemonds lived along the river later known by the same name. Suffolk was first explored by the English settlers based at Jamestown, not long after their arrival. They sought a means to survive the inhospitable environment at Jamestown Island. The area was first part of 1634’s Elizabeth River Shire and then, in 1637, part of Upper Norfolk County, part of which became Nansemond County in 1646. The English created a settlement at Constant’s Wharf (named for Captain John Constant) at Sleepy Hole Point on the Nansemond River, to take advantage of commerce they could conduct along the river. In 1742, authorized by the House of Burgesses, the new town was officially named “Suffolk” after Royal Governor William Gooch’s home county of Suffolk in England. During the American Revolutionary War, the town was burned by the British in 1779. It was totally destroyed after thousands of barrels of turpentine and pitch caught fire in warehouses along the river. Suffolk became an incorporated town in Nansemond County in 1808. As part of Virginia, it sided with the Confederacy in the American Civil War. From May 12,

295


1862, to July 3, 1863, the town was occupied by 25,000 Union troops under Major General John J. Peck. Peck made his headquarters in the Greek revival house now called “Riddick’s Folly”. Graffiti from the occupying soldiers can still be seen on the walls. During this period, Confederate General James Longstreet unsuccessfully besieged the town with 20,000 men between April 11 and May 4, 1863. He was ordered to disengage by General Robert E. Lee to join the Army of Northern Virginia at Fredericksburg. Two months later on July 3, the Union forces abandoned the town for strategic reasons, as decided by General John Adams Dix. Confederate cavalry general Laurence S. Baker is buried in the City’s Cedar Hill Cemetery. Suffolk became a city independent from the surrounding county in 1910. At a practical level, the two remained closely linked, and the county seat remained at Suffolk after the city became politically independent. Thus it remained until 1972 when the county was converted to city status to become the short-lived lost city the City of Nansemond. On January 1, 1974, the City of Nansemond and the City of Suffolk united to become the present City of Suffolk, consolidating with the outlying incorporated towns of Holland and Whaleyville. The end result was a new municipality encompassing a total of 430 square miles, making it the largest city in land area in Virginia. Suffolk celebrated its 400th anniversary in 2008. In 1912, Italian immigrant Amedeo Obici came from Pennsylvania and opened facilities of the Planters Nut and Chocolate Company in Suffolk. He built on the widespread cultivation of peanuts in the area. By 1941, Suffolk had been declared “The Peanut Capital of the World”. The city also became home to Planters’ Mr. Peanut, a world-famous advertising icon. Today, Suffolk remains a major peanut processing center and transportation hub. COMMUNITY ATTRACTIONS
