BACKGROUND: County-Wide 1. During the course of the current fiscal year, the almost thirty-year-old legacy financial system was replaced by a more state-of-the-art system, MUNIS. The old system was quite limited in its capabilities and offered very little analytical flexibility. The new system offers many capabilities. .With- the implementation of the MUNIS systems, staff had the opportunity to design a chart of accounts that more accurately reflects departmental. functionalifies. For examples, expenditures for Library services, Recreation and Parks can now be captured in a new function, Culture and Recreation, as opposed to the legacy system that captured them in the Human Services Function. This budget amendment provides for these new functions with the appropriate funding of County departments within the new functions. Attachment 1 (Budget As Amended) reflects these new functions. Department of Social Services The Department of Social Services has received notification from the State of additional funds for the current year for various programs: 2. Child-Care Subsidy - An additional State allocation totaling $323 for child-care subsidies to low-income families. To date, 1,023 children and their families have benefited from this program this fiscal year. The new funds bring the current budget for this program to $3,442,622. This budget amendment provides for the receipt of these State funds. (See Attachment 1, column #1) 3. LINKS Program -Additional State funds of $6,976 to be used for the department's LINKS program. This program allows the department to offer training to foster care youth regarding job preparation, daily living skills, and money management. This budget amendment provides for the receipt of these State funds. (See Attachment 1, column #2). 4. Medicaid Expansion Funds -The State has allocated an additional $2,205 in Medicaid Expansion funds. These funds will offset costs associated with reinstating Medicaid coverage for families and individuals that were terminated from Work First Benefit Diversion or Transitional Medicaid. This budget amendment provides for the receipt of these additional State funds. (See Attachment 1, column #3). Efland Sewer Fund 5. The original budget for the Efland Sewer Operating Fund totaled $80,000, which included an appropriation from General Fund fund balance of $34,000. Over the ~ course of the year, revenues from tap fees and sewer charges have exceeded the original budget by $16,575 bringing total revenues to $61,575 for the year. On the other hand, expenditures have run higher than the original budget due to higher usage and winter weather. Year-end expenditures are expected to exceed the original budget by approximately $46,.000. In order for the fund not to be over budget at year-end, this budget amendment budgets for the additional tap fees .and sewer charges and appropriates $30,000 of General Fund fund balance. (See Attachment 1, column #4) Miscellaneous/Non-Departmental 6. Last year at this time, the County faced significant budget cuts from the State. During budget deliberations last spring, the-Board approved asix-month freeze of vacant non-critical County positions. Budgeted savings from the freeze totaled $740,000. This budget amendment transfers salary savings from individual departments that experienced position vacancies during the year to the Miscellaneous function of the General Fund where the savings were actually budgeted. (See Attachment 1, column #5). 7. The approved 2002-03 budget set aside funds to address employee pay and/or benefits after July 1, 2002. Employee Pay and Benefits Contingency Fund -Last Fall, the Board approved using this reserve to alleviate the impact of increased health insurance costs for employees. The amount budgeted in this reserve totals $145,400 Equity Retention Fund -Funds totaling $25,000 were approved by the Board in the current year budget. These funds were used, with approval by the County. Manager, throughout the year to address equitable salary relationships among employees and support retention. This budget amendment allocates the employee pay and benefits and equity retention funds to the appropriate functions within the General Fund. In addition it authorizes the transfer of funds from the Miscellaneous function to the General Administration function to address Board action related to the Manager's performance review for 2002-03. The .Board of Commissioners completed the Manager's performance review for 2002-03 and decided- to adjust his salary from $129,629 to $136,110 effective April 14, 2003. This budget amendment enacts the adjustment to the Manager's salary effective April 14, 2003 and authorizes to fund the cost of the adjustment for fiscal year 2002-03, and. (See Attachment 1, column #6) 8. At its June 23, 2003 meeting, the Board of County Commissioners approved an appropriation of $35,000 from the Commissioners' Contingency account to the Lands Legacy Capital Project Fund. This budget amendment provides for the appropriation of $35,000 from the Commissioners' Contingency. After this appropriation, $2,260 remains in this Contingency account for the current fiscal year. (See Attachment 2, Land Legacy Capital Project Ordinance) 112/118 North Churton Street Capital Project Ordinance 9. Some functions of the Clerk of Courts are located at 112 North Churton Street in Hillsborough. At this time last year, the County was leasing that space for the Courts along with office space located at 118 North Churton Street for the Veterans Services office. After the beginning of the current fiscal year, the Board of Commissioners granted approval for the County to issue debt and purchase the buildings in lieu of continuing the lease arrangement. As a point of comparison, the annual lease payments for the building totaled $55,234 while the annual debt service payment for fiscal year 2003-04 is about $66,000 and will decrease annually over the ten-year repayment period. The result of the purchase is that the funds budgeted to pay the monthly lease need to be transferred to cover the partial year cost of debt service. This budget amendment transfers the unexpended lease payments from the Clerk of Courts budget to the County's Debt Service function (See Attachment 1, column #8) One component of purchasing the property included conducting an environmental compliance study of the site. The County paid the cost of the study up-front and the owner agreed to reimburse the County for the associated expenses. The attached capital project ordinance also allows for the reimbursement of those costs, which totaled $58,189. (See Attachment 3, 112/118 North Churton Street Capital Project Ordinance) Register of Deeds 10. Last year, the NC General Assembly approved legislation that required counties throughout the State to earmark ten percent of some of the fees collected by Registers of Deeds for automation efforts. The revenues from this earmarking are set aside in the County's Register of Deeds Automation Enhancement and Preservation Fund Capital Project. At their September 3, 2002 meeting, the Board of County Commissioners approved additional anticipated revenues of $100,000 based on current year collection projections at that time. Since then, the department has experienced higher than anticipated revenues. The additional amount that is earmarked for the Automation Enhancement and Preservation Fund totals $87,000. This budget amendment provides for .these additional revenues in this Capital Project Fund. (See Attachment 4, Automation Enhancement and Preservation Fund Capital Project Ordinance) Health Department 11.On February 17, 2003, the Board of County Commissioners approved the acceptance of funds from the Health and Wellness Trust Fund to be used for the Youth Tobacco Prevention Project. The Youth Tobacco Prevention Project is a three-year program with total approved funding of $232,848. This project seeks to prevent youth from beginning tobacco use and assist those that are already users to stop. If approved, this budget amendment would appropriate the first year of grant funding in the amount of $81,351. (See Attachment 5, Youth Tobacco Prevention Project Grant Project Ordinance) Sheriff 12. The Sheriffs Department has received notification from the U.S. Department of Justice of a three-year grant (from June 1, 2003 through May 31, 2006) for Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS). The total amount of the federal funds anticipated from the three-year grant is $300,000 with the County match over the same period totaling $75,000. Funds from the grant offset the personnel and benefits cost of four deputies associated with community oriented policing. This budget amendment accepts the federal grant funds through June 30, 2004. The required County match for fiscal year 2003-04 would be covered with funds already budgeted in the Sheriff Department's General Fund budget. -The remainder of federal grant funds will be included in future departmental budgets along with future required County matching funds. (See Attachment 1, column #11). FINANCIAL IMPACT: Financial impacts are included in the background information above. RECOMMENDATION (S): The Manager recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve the attached budget, capital, and grant project ordinances. tchment 1.
