®range County ABC Hoard Budget for FY 2021-22
June 16, 2021
Budget Message
The Annual Budget for the fiscal year July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022 (FY 22) has been
prepared in accordance with North Carolina General Statutes and in compliance with the
standards of financial operations of local boards.The ABC board determines through adoption of
an annual balanced budget the best way to use our resources to maintain a high level of customer
service in customer friendly, modern, and efficient stores. This document outlines the ways that
we will appropriately spend revenue to accomplish those goals.The primary drivers in the
presentation of this budget are the cooperating needs to provide an environment where
customers feel comfortable shopping while creating maximum return and to fulfill our statutory
obligations. The items that follow reflect the board's goals and commitment to running an
outstanding operation focused on the customer.
Key Assumptions
• This budget is predicated on projected gross revenue of$24,965,715 and operating costs
including payroll are projected at$4,307,815 along with total distributions of$933,000.
• Sales growth is projected at a slight decrease due to the sales bubble.
• Distributions to Law Enforcement agencies for this budget are$166,000 for alcohol law
enforcement in Orange County and the towns of Carrboro, Chapel Hill and Hillsborough
and remain well over the statutory requirements.
• Alcohol Education funds are statutorily set at 7%or$60,000 (est.) and budgeted at
$237,000, staying well above statutory requirements,
• Distributions to the Orange County General Fund will be$530,000.
i
I
I
Highlights and Key elements of the budget Include:
Payroll
Continued support of the living wage will increase payroll and will decrease profitability for years
to come as raises compound the cost of the workforce.The Covid-19 extra duty pay and increase
in the percentage of retirement expenses for each employee will also impact payroll.
Capital Improvements,More Improvements and Building Projects
We are building a store in Mebane on our existing property with an estimated cost of$2,350,000.
(tent and Lease Payments
The only lease payments are in Ram's Plaza and Meadowmont and both will increase this year.
Training& Education
Our education funds available are$10,000 as we maintain our relationship with Catapult Raleigh
and Greensboro as a member and will continue to partner with them to provide training. Several
core areas will be covered to improve customer service and management skills with the continuing
goal to create a comfortable customer environment and improve overall operations and
profitability.
Staffing Summary
The Board normally maintains an employee base of 49 Employees with 34 Full-Time and 15 Part-
Time and do not usually expect this number to fluctuate. We had some surge hiring for the extra
sales we are experiencing and have created a new category of temporary part time for any part
time employee anticipated to be working less than a year. We will maintain enough employees to
keep customer service a high priority by maintaining consistent staffing levels.
Changes to this budget after adoption will be accompanied by a budget amendment with changes
in excess of$5,000 requiring approval by the board and changes under$5,000 requiring approval
by both the Budget Officer and Finance Officer. This budget shows the commitment of the Orange
County ABC Board to go over and above statutorily required distributions to Alcohol Education
and Law Enforcement.This budget reflects the board's commitment to improving store
infrastructure and increasing profitability by investing in the employees who generate revenue
through their hard work and dedication to outstanding Customer Service.
