items would save money in the long term. He reviewed the fee schedule

volunteers. The requested funds would provide for expansion of services
and paid part- time personnel.

concerned about the day care in this County. The budget for the past

To: County Commissioners ■
From: County Manager
Subject: 1986-87 Budget Information
Date: July 7, 1986
The following items are for your information regarding the 1986-87 budget:
1. Tentative Mark-Up List
See attachment.
2. Additional ;C Sales Tax
The Senate has approved an amended bill authorizing counties to levy an
additional kc sales tax. The amendment provides for earmarking 60% of the
proceeds for school construction for two years and a declining percentage
thereafter for a total of eleven years.
The bill now is back in the House. The House may either concur with the
Senate version of the bill or call for a conference. The expectations,
according to the County Commissioners Association, is for the House to concur,
but this will probally not be known until Monday evening (July 7) .
Attached is some additional information regarding the estimated amount of the
proceeds and two possible alternatives for their use for 1986-87.
3. New Hope Fire District Tax Rate
The New Hope Fire District requested a lc tax increase for 86-87 (from 4C to SC)
in their original budget request. This tax increase was recommended by the
County Manager during the Public Hearing on June 19. The District is expected
to lose approximately $30 million in tax base through annexations by the Town
of Chapel Hill. According to the law, the Town has the option of reimbursing
the District in full for the revenue loss due to the annexation ar reimbursing
15 of the loss under a "first responder" contract. The amount of revenue loss
to the District is estimated to be $9,000.- $10,000.
It is not known at this time which option. the Town will choose, as the Council
is not expected to settle this isssue until a meeting on July 14th.
Should the Town decide to reimburse for only i of the revenue loss, an additional
1C increase in the rate (beyond the 1G already recommended) would be needed to
avoid an undesired reduction in the District's fund balance.
•
4. Loss of Revenue Due To Exemption of Household Property From Ad Valorem Tax
It is estimated that the County would lose approximately $300,000 of property
tax revenue if the General Assembly exempts household property from the tax.
If the additional sales tax passes and is implemented effective September 1,
L 1986, the County would have a net gain of $937,500($1,237,500 6 sales tax
less $300,000 property tax) .
15. Status of Bill To Authorize Counties To Issue Debt Without Voter Approval
This has been re-refirred to the House Finance Committee. Although it is not
likely, it is still possible that this legislation will come out of committee
and be acted upon this session.

Volume III, No. 31
Tax Sales a Reality
We are extremely proud that the House concurred on the Senate amendment to
HB 1542 and enacted authorization for an additional 1/2% local option sales tax.
Many people worked very hard for this and we are most grateful.
We especially appreciate all the Senators and Representatives who voted for
the bill (A list is enclosed) . We urge you to express your appreciation for
their support.
It is always a bit risky to cite individuals who were especially helpful
and yet there are clearly those who deserve our special thanks. Knowing that I
might miss saneone, here are sane who are absolutely deserving of our gratitude:
• Representative Vernon James
Vernon introduced the bill and worked diligently for its passage. He
also was willing to accept the amendment calling for a setaside for
schools and a nonsupplant clause. He was the floor leader in the
House and made the motion to concur with the Senate amendment. His
was not an easy task and he did it extremely well.
• Senator Dennis Winner
Dennis prepared the amendment calling for the setaside for schools
and the nonsupplant clause. He insisted that a substantial portion
of the revenue be designated specifically for schools and that the
bill contain strong nonsupplant language. As the floor leader of the
amended bill in the Senate, Dennis did an outstanding job in
explaining the provisions defending the need for his amendment.
• Lt. Governor Bob Jordan
The Lt. Governor was somewhat reluctant at first but only because he
wanted all of the proceeds to go to schools. When he came to the
realization that the bill had strong support, he was very insistent
on a strong nonsupplant clause and a substantial amount earmarked for
public school capital needs. His support was essential and he gave
it.
EXPLANATION OF BILL (HB 1542)
Authorizes any county that levies both the 1% and 1/2% local-option sales
taxes to levy an additional 1/2% tax. The tax would be collected by the state
and distributed to cities and counties.
The bill restricts the use of the proceeds by each local government unit as
follows:
Counties
(1) For the first 11 years that the tax is in effect (first year is counted
as full year regardless of when the tax levied during year) , counties
are required to spend a fixed portion of new tax revenue for public
school capital outlay (including retirement of public school debt
issued within the five years prior to the date the new tax took
effect) , according to the following schedule:
Years 1-2 60%
Years 3-4 50
. Years 5--8 40
Year 9-10 30 .
Year 11 . 20 - . .
(2) As in the 1983 local sales tax authorization, a county may petition the
Local Government Commission of the Department of State Treasurer for a
variance from the earmarking requirement. A variance may be granted if .
the county can demonstrate that it can meet its public school capital
(` needs without restricting the new revenue.
(3) Authorization is also provided for local boards of education to
petition the Local Government Commission to make a finding that the .
county has not complied with the requirements of the article in
providing funds for school capital outlay purposes.
(4) The bill requires the Local Government Commission to provide to the -
General Assembly by February'15 of each year a report on the level of
each county's appropriation to public school capital (including
retirement of school debt and funds placed in a reserve for retirement
of debt) . The report shall contain the following information for each
county:
(a) public school capital outlay for a minimum of at least the most
recent five year period;
(b) estimates of public school facility needs;
(c) the proportion of the 1983 authorized 1/2% sales tax used for
. public school outlay (including retirement of public school debt) ;
(d) the proportion of revenue from this bill that is used for public
school capital outlay (including retirement of public school
debt); and
(e) any other factors that would enable the Commission to determine
whether a county has complied with legislative intent.

Re: County Personnel Ordinance
Dear Mr. Willhoit:
The Social Services Board met today and desires to be on record at the
public hearing regarding the 1986-87 budget as strongly urging the Board of
Commissioners to honor commitments in two areas made to our employees via
the county personnel ordinance.
The first area is the continuance of a meaningful merit policy. We have
recently evaluated each staff member and outlined goals and improvements in
performance needed. It is extremely difficult to administer such policy
without rewards for those who improve performance. In lean financial years
some reductions may have to be made, however, continued support for a merit plan
is essential.
The second area is the personnel ordinances' commitment to tuition refund
payments (Section 16.1.4) for county staff. This item needs to be separately
funded from the line item departmental budgets to insure the intent of the
ordinance maybe implemented.
Your consideration in these matters is greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
. N _
Thomas M. Denton, Chair
for the Social Services Board

Subject: Local Sources of Revenue For Schools
Date: April 22, 1986

Board makes a proposal to provide a particular service and the State
decides whether to provide funds.
4. Other - Based on local school administration estimates; Usually based on
past history; Examples are fines and forfeitures, investment earnings,

To: County Commissioners
From: County Manager r •
Subject: 1986-87 Budget Information
Date: July 7, 1986
The following items are for your information regarding the 1986-87 budget:
1. Tentative Mark-Up List
See attachment:'
2. Additional 1G Sales Tax
The Senate has approved an amended bill authorizing counties to levy an
additional sales tax. The amendment provides for earmarking 60% of the
proceeds for school construction for two years and a declining percentage
thereafter for a total of eleven years.
The bill now is back in the House. The House may either concur with the
Senate version of the bill or call,for a conference. The expectations,
according to the County Commissioners Association, is for the House to concur,
but this will probally not be known.until Monday evening (July 7) .
Attached is some additional information regarding the estimated amount of the
proceeds and two possible alternatives for their use for 1986-87.
3. New Hope Fire District Tax Rate
The New Hope Fire District requested a lc tax increase for 86-87 (from 4c to 5C)
in their original budget request. This tax increase was recommended by the
County Manager during the Public Hearing on June 19. The District is expected
to lose approximately $30 million in tax base through annexations by the Town
of Chapel Hill. According to the law, the Town has the option of reimbursing
the District in full for the revenue loss due to the annexation ar reimbursing
z of the loss under a "first responder" contract. The amount of revenue loss
to the District is estimated to be $9,000:- $10,000.
It is not known at this time which option.. the Town will choose, as the Council
is not expected to settle this isssue until a meeting on July 14th.
Should the Town decide to reimburse for only z of the revenue loss, an additional
1/2c increase in the rate (beyond the 1p already recommended) would be needed to
avoid an undesired reduction in the District's fund balance.
' r
4. Loss of Revenue Due To Exemption of Household Property From Ad Valorem Tax
It is estimated that the County would lose approximately $300,000 of property
tax revenue if the General Assembly exempts household property from the tax.
If the additional sales tax passes and is implemented effective September 1,
1'_'J 1986, the County would have a net gain of $937,500($1,237,500 1c sales tax
less $300,000 property tax) .
f5. Status of Bill To Authorize Counties To Issue Debt Without Voter Approval
This has been're-referred, to the House Finance Committee. Although it is not
likely, it is still possible that this legislation will come out of committee
and be acted upon this session.
