September 17, 2019

Dear Mayor and City Council: In accordance with the City Charter and the laws of the State of Texas governing home rule cities, please accept this letter as the budget transmittal and executive summary for the Fiscal Year 2020 annual budget. The budget is structurally balanced, meaning that reserves have not been used to balance the operating budget. It provides for all available resources and expenditures for the City and acts as the general financial and operating plan for the City of Forney. INTRODUCTION As always, this budget was prepared with great diligence in allocating limited resources for the best benefit to the citizens of Forney. The budget is a balanced budget; however in order to present a fiscally responsible budget, some staff requests were either reduced or eliminated. This is not a reflection on the merit of these requests, but rather, it is indicative of the need to prioritize based on available resources, community need and Council direction.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION & FUND SUMMARIES GENERAL FUND The General Fund is the City’s principle operating fund and is supported by taxes, fees, and other revenues that are not restricted to specific uses. This fund accounts for City functions such as police, fire, community development, parks, municipal court and administration. General Fund Revenue Fiscal Year 2019 total General Fund revenue is expected to end the year 12.16% above the original budget. This is the result of increased sales tax collections.

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET


Total revenue for Fiscal Year 2020 is projected to be $21,804,837. This is an increase of 14.33% from the prior year’s budget. This increase is primarily due to increased property tax and sales tax revenues. TAXABLE VALUATION & TAX RATE The total certified property valuations for Fiscal Year 2020 are $1,935,983,668. This is an increase of 16.72% or $277,435,818 in total valuation. Thirty-six percent of this increase, $99,980,248, can be attributed to new construction. The remainder is an increase in existing property valuation, which indicates a thriving community.

Variance -0.00711 $718,937 -0.03399 -$103,435 -0.04111 $615,502

While valuations have increased by 66% since its highest in Fiscal Year 2014, the total tax rate has decreased by $0.169020. The increased valuations, along with sound debt management including early redemptions and refunding, has contributed to the decreased tax rate. A $0.58 tax rate is set for Fiscal Year 2020. This represents a $0.04 decrease from the prior year. While both the debt service and the maintenance and operations portion of the tax rate will be decreasing, additional revenue will be generated from new construction as well as increased valuations. The additional revenue will be used for increased operating cost. Further information on the changes in the tax rate, including adjustments for tax abatements and tax increment financing districts, can be found in the General Fund section of this document. SALES & PROPERTY TAXES Over the past five years, sales tax revenues have increased an average of 12% per year. This continued increase is indicative of a growing local economy, resulting from continued population growth within the city limits and the surrounding areas, as well as increased commercial development. The city has always taken a very conservative approach to budgeting sales tax. The Fiscal Year 2019 budget assumed a 5% increase in sales tax revenue and actual collections are trending higher toward a 12% increase from the prior year. For Fiscal Year 2020, an increase of 5% from the current year end estimate is proposed. FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET

PERMITS & INSPECTIONS This revenue category as a whole is expected to end the year at approximately 11% above the original budget. While nearly all of the individual permit fee categories will end Fiscal Year 2019 with increases, the largest increases will be reflected in Zoning & Platting Fees, and Engineering Consulting Fees. Increases in Zoning & Platting Fees and Engineering Consulting Fees indicate that a number of developments are in the early stages and have not yet reached the point where building permits are necessary. Therefore, revenues for Fiscal Year 2020 are budgeted to remain flat. OTHER REVENUE SOURCES Sales Revenue includes fire protection fees and park revenue. Fire Protection fees are charged to the Kaufman County Emergency Services District #6 (ESD #6) and the Town of Talty. Nearly 40% of the Forney Fire Department calls are outside the City limits and in ESD #6. Therefore, ESD #6 has increased their contribution to the City for Fiscal Year 2020 and will provide an additional $289,196. Park revenues are expected to remain flat. Court Fines and Miscellaneous Revenues are expected to increase 4.6%. Donations & Grants are expected to remain flat, and Interest Income is expected to increase based on rising interest rates for available funds. GENERAL FUND EXPENSES The Fiscal Year 2020 Budget includes an increase in expenditures of 8.4%. This increase is primarily the result of increased salary and benefits related costs. By Category

EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION Personnel costs account for 71% of the General Fund’s expenses. The Fiscal Year 2020 budget includes a 5% increase for non-step employees and a 1 step increase (each step is 5%) for sworn police officers and fire fighters who are included on the step pay plan. The increase in salary for existing positions, when combined with all other benefits, will result in an increase of $1,796,528 (12.2%) in General Fund expenses. HEALTH INSURANCE PREMIUMS The budget includes a 12% increase in health care costs. The industry average for health care cost increases is between 12% and 15%.

TEXAS MUNICIPAL RETIREMENT SYSTEM The Texas Municipal Retirement System contribution rate for 2020 will increase to 13.93% from 13.6% in January of 2020. With the longer tenure of employees and increased salaries, the City’s contribution to TMRS will increase by $87,580 (6.8%) for the upcoming fiscal year. NEW POSITIONS The Fiscal Year 2020 budget includes two new full-time positions and one new part-time position in the General Fund. A Deputy Chief position was added in the Police Department and a Senior Civil Engineer position was added in the Engineering Department. The Legal Department includes a part-time position for a Municipal Court Prosecutor. Fiscal Year 2020 will be the third and final year of a three-year grant for six additional Fire Fighter positions. The City will be reimbursed for 35% of the salaries for those six fire fighters during the fiscal year. CONTINGNECY & RESERVES A $200,000 line item contingency is included to offset unexpected costs. In addition to the contingency line item, there is a transfer of $512,596 to the operating reserve fund to meet the required three months of operating expenses held in reserve. CAPITAL PURCHASES FUND The Capital Purchases Fund is used to make one-time purchases for General Fund Departments. It is primarily funded through a transfer from the General Fund of unrestricted fund balance. Segregating these purchases in this manner helps to ensure that fund balance is not used for recurring operating expenses and assists in the tracking of fixed assets. The following purchases are scheduled for Fiscal Year 2020:

UTILITY FUND The Utility Fund is an enterprise fund that accounts for the water, sewer, and refuse services that are provided to the City’s residents. Revenues are derived from charges for water consumption, wastewater collection, and refuse services. UTILITY FUND REVENUE Fiscal Year 2019 total Utility Fund revenue is expected to end the year 2.5% above the original budget. The increase is attributable to additional sewer usage. The residential, industrial and wholesale sewer categories are all projected to end the year above their original budget. During the Fiscal Year 2018 budget process, the City Council agreed to pass along the increases from NTMWD for water and wastewater collection and CWD for refuse services to all customers. Both NTMWD and CWD will be increasing rates for Fiscal Year 2020, therefore this budget includes proposed increases for water (2.4%), sewer (10%) and refuse services (5%) to cover the rising cost.

The following capital purchases are also budgeted for Fiscal Year 2020: ▬ Backhoe - $90,000 ▬ Dump Truck - $80,000 ▬ Mini Excavator - $50,000 CONTINGENCY & RESERVES A $50,000 line item contingency is included to offset unexpected costs. In addition to the contingency line item, there is a transfer of $392,735 to the operating reserve fund to meet the required three months of operating expenses held in reserve. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT FUNDS The Capital Improvement Funds account for the design and construction of City facilities, roads and drainage, parks, and water and sewer systems. Unlike the operating budget, the capital improvement budgets do not conclude at the end of each fiscal year, as many CIP projects remain in progress over several years. Capital Improvement Projects are funded from a number of different sources. Based on the funding sources, projects are put into one of two different funds: the General Capital Improvement fund, or the Utility Capital Improvement Fund. General Capital Improvement Fund The projects in the General Capital Improvement Fund can be funded from bond proceeds, developer contributions, transfers from the General Fund or other funds not classified as utility related, and donations or grants. Funding sources for Fiscal Year 2020 projects are as follows: ▬ $1,763,625 transfer from the General Fund o $262,500 Community Development building expansion o $100,000 City records storage building o $400,000 Christmas light show in Community Park o $500,000 Drainage study o $451,125 Technology infrastructure o $100,000 Drainage improvements at Fire Station #2 Utility Capital Improvement Fund The projects in the Utility Capital Improvement Fund can be funded from bond proceeds, developer contributions, the Utility Fund, and the Water and Sewer Impact Funds. ▬ $1,473,875 in budgeted projects o $487,500 Community Development building expansion o $400,000 Public Works office expansion o $350,000 Public Works storage building o $50,000 Public Works shop upgrades o $150,375 Technology infrastructure FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET

DEBT SERVICE FUNDS The City issues debt to support capital improvements. This debt is either tax supported and accounted for in the Debt Service Fund, or it is water sewer revenue supported and accounted for in the Utility Debt Service Fund. The combined total debt payments for Fiscal Year 2020 will be $6,809,141. General Debt Service Fund Revenues required to pay the City’s outstanding tax supported debt are restricted to debt payments. Revenues in this fund are collected through the debt service portion of the property tax rate and from the TxDOT Pass Through Toll reimbursement. A committed fund balance is designated for early bond redemption. These funds are the accelerated portion of the reimbursement (amount above the guaranteed minimum annual payment) from TxDOT for the Pass Through Toll roadway projects. The City has retired an additional amount of the 2008 GO bonds annually according to the funds available. During Fiscal Year 2019, the City redeemed $2 million, bringing the total early redemption since Fiscal Year 2013 to $13,025,000. To date, this process has saved the City $7,044,038 in interest. The required general debt payments for Fiscal Year 2020 total $6,090,166. In calculating the debt service tax rate, this number is reduced by the Pass Through Toll guaranteed minimum annual payment of $2,009,570 and $672,013 of available fund balance for the 2014 CO issue and the 2017 Tax Notes. This results in the tax rate being based on payments of $3,374,498 and is a reduction of $0.152524 per $100 valuation.

-$2,009,570 -$672,013 $3,408,583

The final debt service portion of the tax rate is $0.193875 and will generate $3,374,498 in revenue for bond payments. Of this total, $0.130953 (68%) results from voter approved general obligation debt. Utility Debt Service Fund Revenues required to pay the City’s outstanding revenue supported debt are transferred from the Utility Fund, the Water Impact Fund and the Sewer Impact Fund. The exact amount required to cover the year’s bond payments is transferred in each year and the fund maintains a zero fund balance. The total required debt payment for the upcoming year is $718,975. HOTEL OCCUPANCY TAX FUND The Hotel Occupancy Tax (HOT) Fund is a special revenue fund that receives revenue through a 7% tax charged on all room rates by hotels or motels within the city limits. Expenditures are restricted to activities that promote tourism and encourage visitors to stay in local hotels or 13

motels. The revenue for this fund is based on historical information and is expected to remain relatively flat at $160,000 for Fiscal Year 2020. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION FUND The Economic Development (EDC) Fund is a special revenue fund that receives revenue from type 4B sales tax. Expenditures are restricted to activities that support and promote economic and community development. Economic Development Revenue Economic Development Corporation revenues are expected to finish Fiscal Year 2019 at a 12% increase above the original budget due to increased sales tax collections.

CONCLUSION The Fiscal Year 2020 budget is a balanced budget and provides an operating basis for the next year. It provides for strategic planning and investment in infrastructure, public safety, quality of life services, and our most valuable asset, our workforce. At the same time, we are maintaining the long-term fiscal viability of the community by promoting cost saving measures and supporting quality development. FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET

Thoroughfare Plan, Road Projects & Funding Shared Viewpoints and Ideas:  Recognized as a major need in the City  Further meetings with additional information needed to develop a plan of action  Final version of the thoroughfare plan needs to be presented to Council for consideration in the new future Staff Objectives:  Presentation will be presented to Council by February 2019 – Estimated timeframe of February 2019  Staff will work with Engineer to identify additional means and methods to leverage State projects – Estimated timeframe of 1 year

Future Bonding & Financing Options Shared Viewpoints and Ideas: 

During this section, council members prioritized different bonding projects. Unanimously, the council voted to give roadway issues priority. Unfortunately, many of the roadways needing the most attention are not under the control of the City. Council members narrowly chose parks as their second bonding priority with city facilities as their third. Discussion that followed indicated that with additional information council members may adjust the prioritization of parks and city facilities. Prior to undertaking any feasibility studies for city facilities, council members asked that staff present information over their future city facility needs. As to parks, council members requested that a townhall meeting be organized for the public to review maps, options, and costs. On roadways, the council members wanted to begin addressing issues as soon as possible. Prior to picking one road project over another, council members requested additional information on the thoroughfare plan and on how the City can work with other entities.

Staff Objectives: 

Staff will await further direction from Council on any potential bonding initiatives – Timeframe TBD

GENERAL BUDGET INFORMATION, PLAN, & PROCESS The city budget is a planning document for the use of financial resources during the fiscal year. The City of Forney is a complex organization, providing a wide range of services to its residents, customers, and visitors. City resources annually exceed $50 million. As with any large organization that provides a mixture of services, planning and management of financial resources are vital to the City. With increasing financial requirements of the School District, State and Federal governments on our citizens, it becomes even more important for the City to adequately plan and manage the use of its financial resources.

FUND ACCOUNTING In accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), the accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds and account groups, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. Government resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based on the purpose for which they are to be spent and the means by which spending activities are controlled. A fund is defined as a fiscal and accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts recording cash and other financial resources, together with all related liabilities and residual equities or balances, and changes therein, which are segregated for the purpose of carrying on specific activities or attaining certain objectives in accordance with special regulations, restrictions, or limitations. Fund accounting segregates funds according to their intended purpose and is used to aid management in demonstrating compliance with finance related legal and contractual provisions. It divides our reporting responsibility into several functional types as well as classifications. A brief explanation will facilitate your usage of this document. The minimum number of funds is maintained consistent with legal and managerial requirements. Governmental fund types are used to account for the city’s general government activities and include the General, Debt Service, Capital Project and Governmental Restricted Funds. Proprietary type funds are used to account for operations that provide services to other City departments or that are operated in a manner similar to private business and include both Enterprise and Internal Service Funds. Currently, there are no Internal Service Funds established and in operation. Additional information on Fund types is available in the Organization of Funds section.

29

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET


BASIS OF ACCOUNTING The basis of accounting is the method by which revenues and expenditures or expenses are recognized. The accounting treatment applied to a fund is determined by its measurement focus. All governmental funds are accounted for using a current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when they become susceptible to accrual (i.e. both measureable and available). Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, if measureable, except for un-matured interest on general long-term debt which is recognized when due, and compensated absences which are recognized when the obligations are payable from currently available financial resources. All proprietary fund types are accounted for on a flow of economic resources measurement focus and use the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized when they are earned and expenses are recognized when they are incurred.

BASIS OF BUDGETING Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) with the exception of Capital Projects Funds, which adopt project length budgets. Governmental type fund budgets are prepared on a modified accrual basis. Governmental revenues are budgeted when they are measurable and available and expenditures are budgeted in the period in which the liability is incurred. All proprietary fund types are budgeted using a flow of economic resources measurement focus and use the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are budgeted when they are earned and measurable and expenses are budgeted in the period in which the liability was incurred. The City departs form GAAP in the treatment of depreciation and encumbrances. Depreciation of fixed assets is not recognized in proprietary fund budgets. All annual appropriations lapse at fiscal year end. Under the City’s budgetary process, outstanding encumbrances at year end are reported as reservations of fund balances since they do not constitute expenditures and liabilities and the commitments will be re-appropriated and honored in the subsequent fiscal year.

ACCOUNTING CODE STRUCTURE Our Accounting Code Structure is designed to function with an 11-digit code, which is further divided into four sections. A Fund is a specific purpose classification, with a self-balancing set of accounts. A Department is an organizational or functional unit and may cross fund lines. Activity/Object denotes a distinguishable service performed by an organizational component, and is the final detail identification within the Account Number. Departments and divisions are not specified on the Revenue side; revenues are grouped by type instead of Activity and object is the final detail identification.

The following information provides a brief overview of the steps taken to prepare the City’s annual budget, including the budget calendar used by City Staff. Please keep in mind that 31

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET


this is a simplified version of a complex process that is a combined effort of members of each of the City’s departments and requires an extensive period of time to complete. Both revenues and expenditures are subject to change until the meeting when the City Council officially adopts the budget. Likewise, the budget calendar serves as an approximate timeline and the events may not always occur at the exact time indicated. The annual budget is prepared under the direction of the City Manager. Each department director formulates a base budget for each of the departments included in their division. Base budgets include costs related to all existing personnel, services, and functions. Directors also prepare supplemental requests that provide a separate set of expenditures required to provide a new service, increase staffing levels, or purchase new equipment. Once base and supplemental requests are prepared, the directors submit their budgets to the Finance department. The Finance department compiles the information submitted, along with the revenue estimates, for review by the City Manager. Meetings are then held with the department directors to review and revise. The proposed budget document is prepared and then submitted to the City Council by August 1st. Shortly thereafter, a budget workshop is held for the Staff and City Council to review and discuss the proposed budget. Tax rate calculations and all of the related notice publications and public hearings, if necessary, occur throughout August and into September. A Public Hearing on the Budget is held in early September and revisions continue. The final budget is reviewed by the City Council and adopted in late September.

LEGAL LEVEL OF BUDGET CONTROL The legal level for expenditure budget control is the Fund level. Each Department Director is responsible for the budget in their respective departments. The Directors are given latitude to transfer budget funds within their departments, with the exception of the personnel services category. Transfers affecting the personnel services category or outside of the department require the approval of the City Manager. Additions to the budget that are not countered by a reduction elsewhere require amendment of the budget by City Council. Article VII of the City's Charter governs the preparation and submission of the budget and the Schedules and Attachments in this budget meet or exceed its requirements. Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the year for the General Fund and Enterprise Funds. Formal budgetary integration is not employed for the Debt Service and Capital Projects Funds because effective budgetary control is alternatively achieved through bond indenture provisions and legally binding construction contracts, respectively.

AMENDMENT OF APPROVED BUDGET The amendment of a departmental budget, which affects the total budget, requires approval by City Council. The City budgets a contingency amount in the operating funds. These

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET

32


contingency amounts are available to be used by the City Manager for any emergency, unforeseen expense or opportunity that might arise.

FUND BALANCE & RESERVE POLICIES In accordance with the requirements of Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), the City describes fund balance as: (1) Restricted; (2) Committed; (3) Assigned; and (4) Unassigned. The Charter requires that we maintain under 7% of General Fund budgeted expenditures as fund balance. In addition, the City has reserved unassigned fund balance at 90 days of current year budgeted expenditures for both the General and Water/Sewer Funds. In other operating funds, the City shall strive to maintain a positive retained earnings position to provide sufficient reserves for emergencies and revenue shortfalls. Except for special revenue funds, Fund Balance shall be used only for emergencies, nonrecurring expenditures, or major capital purchases that cannot be accommodated through current year savings.

Total Governmental Funds

Unassigned fund balance in the General Fund is used to fund the -56% Operating Reserve, Capital Improvements & Purchases, and Special Events. Fund balance in the Capital Purchase Fund can be used to fund -19% capital purchases and is often reduced due to additional budgeted purchases. This increase is the result of the Pass Through Toll agreement. This includes a committed blance of $2,188,203 that will be used to make an additional payment on the 2008 Bond Series. Unassinged 48% fund balance is being used to make annual payments on the 2014 Certificates of Obligation and the 2017 Tax Notes in order to reduce the debt service portion of the tax rate. The increase in the fund balance is the result of additional 62% anticipated fee collections with no current plan for use of those revenues.

FINANCIAL POLICIES Broad policy decisions regarding long-range debt management for the City of Forney that have emerged and that will be followed are summarized below: o Borrowing must not overload future taxpayers to the point where they will not be able to pay. o Borrowing must be confined to capital improvements or projects which cannot be financed from current revenues. o Long-term debt should not provide for current operating expense. o Borrowing for each object or purpose should be related to a time period of probable usefulness of the project and should in no instance be repaid in a time greater than the period of probable usefulness of the project. ► The long-range policies of the City of Forney regarding financial management will be to exercise a discipline which allows us to retain a sound financial condition; strive to achieve the best possible rating on bonds; provide future generations with the ability to borrow capital for construction of facilities without severe financial burden; and give recognition to the community’s needs and ability to pay. These goals are accomplished in the following manner:

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET

36


o Prudent budgeting and effective budget control. Budget replacement of capital equipment as the need arises. (Office machines, automobiles, heavy equipment, etc.) o Pay-as-you-go financing of some capital improvements where feasible. o Scheduling bond issues so that an equal principal amount is retired each year over the life of the issue producing a total debt service schedule with a declining balance each year. o Providing an adequate reserve fund to meet requirements under bond covenants. o Planning for capital improvements on a five year plan which is updated annually. o Passing on the cost of extending utilities and improvements in subdivisions rather than burden the general public. o Provide working capital in all funds sufficient to meet current operating needs. o Financial accounting and reporting in accordance with the method prescribed by the National Committee on Government Accounting of the Municipal Finance Officers Association and making such reports available to bond rating agencies and other financially interested organizations. o Maintaining a fund balance sufficient to provide interim financing for necessary projects and meet unanticipated contingencies such as law suits, tax roll tie-ups, and severe seasonal fluctuation in sales of the city owned utilities.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF FORNEY, TEXAS The following is an excerpt from Forney Country: A History of Northwestern Kaufman County, Texas (Forney Historic Preservation League, 1998), written by Jerry M. Flook. The photos were provided by the Forney Historic Preservation League. (www.historicforney.org)

Forney, Kaufman County, Texas is situated on black clay prairies drained by the East Fork of the Trinity River. It lies within a region of the state called the “Three Forks of the Trinity” when exploration by the white man began here in the late 1830’s. Prior to that time these blackland prairies were occupied mainly by herds of bison and Spanish horses, or mustangs. These animals have lent their name to the two creeks running through town – Big Buffalo Creek and Mustang Creek. The grasslands were also the favored hunting grounds of several groups of Indians. By the mid-1840’s two important roads had been marked out through the area – the Dallas-Kaufman Road and the Bonham-Buffalo Road – and intersected at a point near where Forney would eventually be established. The first settlers in the area of present-day Forney did not begin to arrive until about 1846, well after the Indians had been pushed west of Fort Worth. By that time much of the land had already been granted in large “league and labor” tracts to citizens of the Republic of Texas, most of whom never saw, much less lived upon, the land. The land that was not thus taken was available as headrights, 320 acres for single men and 640 acres for married men, provided they built a cabin and improved a small portion of the land. Settlement remained sparse along the East Fork until the end of the Civil War, but what families there were tended to concentrate along the two early roads just described. The end of the war brought many changes to the area, including a steadily increasing influx of settlers, many from the war-torn South. It also brought a renewed effort to complete construction of the east-west railroad between Marshall and Ft. Worth, which had been stalled by the war. Apparently two land speculators of Ellis County surmised that the rail line would pass through the country near the intersection of these two Kaufman County roads and that there was money to be made by developing a town here. So Asa R. Newton and Harben H. Self in 1869 purchased a tract of land at this place and platted a town which Self named “Brooklin” or “Brooklyn”. Soon Brooklyn would boast a general store, a saloon, a blacksmith shop, and a church/school house/Masonic lodge hall building. However, by 1872 it was clear that the route of the new railroad (the Texas & Pacific) would miss Brooklyn, by passing it about a mile to the north. In 1873 the T&P platted its own town where the rail line crossed the old Bonham-Buffalo Road (today called Bois D’ Arc Street) and named it Brooklyn for the nearby village it was supplanting. Almost immediately leaders of the new rail town encountered a complication when they applied for a U.S. post office. They were informed that the name “Brooklyn, Texas” was unavailable since there was already a post office with that name. In order not to have the untenable situation of the town having one name and its post office another, Brooklyn’s leaders were faced with having to ask the 51

railroad company to change the town’s name. To make this more acceptable to the railroad, they suggested that the new name should honor John W. Forney, political figure, diplomat, nationally known journalist, and director of the T&P Railway Co. The railroad agreed, and the names of the town and its post office officially were one – Forney, Texas. Forney in the 1870’s and early 1880’s was known far and wide as a hard drinking, hard gambling, and hard brawling frontier settlement, despite the best efforts of the town fathers to build a progressive, respectable, and law abiding town. Several tales of those rough-and-tumble days survive and are the stuff of Hollywood wild-west scenes. Before the coming of the railroad the economy of the area had been primarily subsistence agriculture and cattle raising. After 1873, access to distant markets provided by rail transportation stimulated rapid economic growth for Forney. In the late 1870’s and early 1880’s, before the fencing of the open prairies, Forney’s economy turned to the production of bois d’arc wood products and native prairie hay. Bois d’arc trees grew in abundance along the creeks, and the rot-resistant wood was made into bridge timbers, foundation piers, fence posts and paving blocks. Several streets of early Dallas were paved with Forney bois d’arc. But it was its native blackland prairie hay that brought Forney its first fame. The natural vegetation of the prairies on which Forney was built was primarily a mixture of tall grasses, which made especially nutritious and clean hay. At first the hay was often free for the cutting on the unfenced prairie, but soon large meadows were fenced off by their owners, and a thriving economy grew around the production and marketing of Forney Blackland Prairie Hay. Huge hay warehouses were built along both sides of the railroad in town, and local hay producers and hay merchants prospered. Forney Hay became famous nationwide. Even as hay reached it ascendancy, cotton was becoming an increasingly lucrative crop around Forney. Gradually less and less hay was produced as more and more meadows were plowed up for cotton planting. By the second decade of the 20th century cotton had become king of the Forney economy. At that time there were at least six cotton gins operating in town and several more in the surround countryside, and 15,000 to 20,000 bales of cotton were exported annually by rail. A cottonseed oil mill was erected by Forney investors in 1910. The wealth which hay and cotton brought to Forney around the turn of the century built many fine homes and churches, good schools, including the widely respected Lewis Academy, and a thriving downtown business district.

number of the now-historic residences still survive, as do most of the business houses. These landmarks are now among the town’s most significant resources. About 1914, with the growing popularity of the automobile, Forney found itself on the route of the new Dixie Overland Highway, promoted as the shortest, straightest, and only year round ocean-to-ocean highway in the U.S. Then in 1931 the DOH route was further upgraded as U.S. Highway 80, bringing an even more dramatic increase in traffic and its associated commerce. Filing stations and cafes sprang up all along the route (now called Broad Street). What had once been “Gin Row” became “Filling Station Row”. It was not, however, only the new highway that brought about the change in “Gin Row”. The decline of the cotton economy, beginning in the early 1920’s accelerated by the Great Depression of the late 1920’s and early 1930’s struck Forney a heavy blow. The Texas Interurban Railway, a light rail commuter line completed through Forney in 1923, folded in 1932. Then in 1935 a tornado cut a swath of destruction through the business district and the east side of town, killing one, injuring several, and wrecking much property, including the cotton seed oil mill. The mill was closed down later that year, and one by one the gins themselves eventually went out of business, as fewer and fewer acres were planted in cotton. A mass migration of young people from the family farm to the big city drained away much of the community’s vitality and talent. By the end of World War II the town had ground to a virtual standstill. After an extended slumber, Forney started to reawaken in the 1960’s. The city joined the North Texas Municipal Water District, providing a higher quality and more dependable water supply. About this same time an antiques industry sprang up along IH-20 on the outskirts of town, and it is now its antiques that Forney is most widely known for. Also in the 1960’s the general population growth of the Metroplex began to bring renewed residential construction to Forney and with it an economic shot-in-the-arm. Initially this revival was slow, but by 1990 the population surpassed 5,000, enabling Forney to lay claim to the advantages of being home-rule city. New residences, schools, churches, and parks are now being added on every hand, and retail development is following. The trains still pass through town as they did in 1873, but they no longer stop. The route of busy U.S. Highway 80 no longer runs down Broad Street. Virtually no cotton and only a little hay, corn, soybeans and small grain are grown in the surrounding countryside, and none is marketed in town. The last remaining cotton gin, which ceased operation about 1983, is now retail. But today, although Forney is marching into the future with a new and different economy, it nevertheless looks back with nostalgia on the old and takes pride in its heritage. Since the time that Mr. Flook wrote Forney Country: A History of Northwestern Kaufman County, Texas, Forney has continued to prosper. Whereas the population at the time the book was published was slightly over 5,000, it has now exceeded 24,000.

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET


Property taxes provide one of the largest sources of revenue for the City and determining the tax rate is a significant component of the annual budget process. Therefore, discussion of the General Fund cannot be separated from discussion of the tax rate and associated revenue.

ANALYSIS OF PROPERTY VALUATIONS & TAX RATE PROPERTY VALUATION The Kaufman County Appraisal District (KCAD) establishes and certifies the value of each property within the City of Forney and provides this information to both the city and the County Tax Assessor’s Office. The total certified value for Fiscal Year 2020 (Tax Year 2019) is $1,935,983,668. This is an increase of $277,435,818 or 16.73%.

TAX RATE The total tax rate is made up of two portions. MAINTENANCE & OPERATIONS RATE The Maintenance & Operations (M&O) portion of the tax rate provides funding for all general fund operations. This portion of the tax rate is flexible and can be adjusted to a higher or lower rate based on the needs of the community. The M&O rate also generates reserve funds for future capital expenses and allows the City to maintain a three month operating reserve. The proposed Fiscal Year 2020 Maintenance & Operations rate will decrease $0.00711 (-1.81%) to $0.386125. This rate will result in $6,720,728 in General Fund revenue; an increase of $718,937 (11.98%) from the previous year’s General Fund revenue. Fifty-four percent of the revenue increase, or $393,159 results from the new property value added to the tax roll in 2019.

DEBT SERVICE TAX RATE The Debt Service (DS) portion of the tax rate covers the City’s bond payments and other outstanding debt. This portion of the tax rate is not flexible, and is set by a calculation based on the required fiscal year payments of the City’s debt. Fiscal Year 2020’s debt service rate is $0.193875. This is a decrease of $0.03400 (-13.28%) from the Fiscal Year 2019 rate, resulting in $3,374,498 in revenue to be used for debt payments. The Debt Service tax rate is calculated by subtracting any revenue paid from other sources from the annual required debt payment and then dividing that result by the adjusted taxable value and multiplying by 100. (Total annual debt payment) – (Non-tax revenue) ÷ (Adjusted Taxable Value) x 100 = Debt Service Tax Rate ((6,090,166 - 2,681,582) ÷ 1,758,138,986) x 100 = $0.193875

In addition to revenue from the debt service portion of the tax rate, the city receives an annual payment from the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) as part of a Pass Through Tolling agreement. With this agreement, the City sold the 2008 General Obligation Bonds to fund the expansion of three state owned roadways within the city limits, and oversaw the construction. Upon completion of the projects, responsibility for the roadways was returned to the state and TxDOT began to reimburse the City annually. Repayment is structured with a minimum annual payment, with an additional accelerated portion (amount above the guaranteed minimum annual payment) based on traffic counts. The minimum annual payment is $2,009,570. The City Council has deemed any amount above the minimum payment be held as committed fund balance and, if possible, used for early redemption in order to reduce future interest payments. The city has redeemed an additional $13,025,000 resulting in $7,044,038 in interest savings. Combined with general obligation refunding and increasing property values, this early redemption process has also helped to decrease the debt service tax rate by $0.23 since Fiscal Year 2014. To date, the 2014 Certificates of Obligation have not impacted the debt service tax rate. The proceeds from these certificates were used to fund construction of Fire Station #2 and the new Animal Shelter. The payments have been made from fund balance in the Debt Service fund. Payments for the 2017 Tax Notes are also being made from fund balance. This fund balance is the result of interest collected in the fund, as well as delinquent and penalty taxes that have accumulated over prior years and is restricted to use on debt payments. TOTAL TAX RATE The total tax rate for Fiscal Year 2020 is proposed at $0.58. Tax revenue estimates are calculated at a 99% collection rate and are expected to result in a total of $10,095,226. This is an increase of $615,502 (6.5%) from Fiscal Year 2019 and is the result of an increase in assessed valuation and new taxable value. New taxable value added to the tax roll contributed $579,885 of the revenue increase.

The total tax rate has decreased each year since Fiscal Year 2014 (Tax Year 2013). The total five-year reduction is $0.169020. As the debt service and total tax rates have decreased, the maintenance and operations rate has been able to increase by $0.0692, thereby enhancing existing services and adding new services and capital improvements without increasing the burden on the taxpayer.

Property Taxes - $6,720,728 The Kaufman County Appraisal District (KCAD) establishes the value of each property within the City of Forney. The certified taxable value for 2020 is $1,935,983,668. However, the KCAD does not adjust certified taxable value for property in the Tax Increment Finance (TIF) districts. As explained in the property tax analysis, the City subtracts these amounts in order to provide an accurate revenue estimate. This results in property tax revenue budgets being based on a value of $1,758,138,986. The General Fund property tax revenue estimate is calculated by dividing the taxable value by 100, multiplying by the maintenance and operations tax rate and then adjusted for the estimated collection rate of 99%. The maintenance and operations tax rate for 2020 is set at $0.386125, a decrease of 0.00711 (-1.8%) from the prior year’s rate. This rate will result in an increase of $718,937 (11.98%) from the Fiscal Year 2019 budget. The FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET

increase is the result of increased property values as well as new property added to the tax roll. Property Tax Reduction - $2,183,927 In May of 1994, Forney citizens approved an additional 1.00% sales tax for the purpose of creating and funding the Forney Economic Development Corporation (FEDC) and property tax reduction. Half of the approved 1.00% funds the FEDC and the other half is retained by the City in order to offset property taxes. Therefore, property reduction tax is equal to 25% of total sales tax collections and is a reduction of $0.08 on the property tax rate for each property owner. Property Tax Penalty - $15,000 Collection of penalties from ad valorem taxes due from previous years. Delinquent Property Tax - $25,000 Collection of ad valorem taxes due from previous years. Both Property Tax Penalty and Delinquent Property Tax are difficult to predict due to fluctuation in delinquency rates. These items are budgeted for based on collections from previous years. Sales Tax - $4,367,853 Sales tax is levied on taxable commodities and services purchased within the Forney city

limits at the point of sale. The sales tax rate in the City of Forney is 8.25%. Over the past five years, sales tax revenues have increased an average of 12% per year. This continued increase is indicative of a growing local economy, resulting from continued population growth within the city limits and the surrounding area, as well as increased commercial development. The Fiscal Year 2019 budget assumed a 5% increase in sales tax revenue, and actual collections are trending toward an increase of 12% over the prior year. However, the city has always taken a very conservative approach to budgeting and a 5% increase from the year end estimate is budgeted for Fiscal Year 2019.

Mixed Beverage Sales Tax - $57,000 This is the combination of the State of Texas Mixed Beverage Gross Receipt and Mixed Beverage Sales Tax. These are taxes imposed on the gross receipts of an alcohol permittee from the sale, preparation, or service of mixed beverages or service of ice or nonalcoholic 67

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET


beverages that are sold, prepared or served for the purpose of being mixed with an alcoholic beverage and consumed on the premises. The gross receipt tax is charged at a rate of 6.7% to the permittee and can not be passed on to the customer. The sales tax is charged at a rate of 8.25% and is passed on to the customer. Both of these taxes are collected by the state and disbursed to the City at a rate of 10.7% of total collections. Estimates for mixed beverage sales taxes are based on prior year collections and has increased in recent years with new development bringing in more restaurants and establishments that prepare mixed beverages. Franchise Tax - $1,010,000 This is a tax charged to utility and public service companies that require the use of City right of way to run transmission lines in order to provide their services. These fees vary by company or service and are established by the City Council when the use of right of way is requested by the service provider. Generally, this fee is a percentage of the revenues collected by the service providers from their use of the City right of way. Payment in Lieu of Taxes - $2,280,000 The City has entered into an agreement with the power plant whereby the power plant makes an annual payment in place of the ad valorem tax that would have otherwise been due had the facility been annexed.

Fire Protection - $935,020 The City has an agreement with the Town of Talty whereby the Forney Fire Department provides emergency and fire protection to the Town of Talty. The agreed upon fee is $0.03 per $100 of total property valuation. The expected revenue from the Town of Talty for Fiscal Year 2020 is $67,434. A similar agreement is in place with the Kaufman County Emergency Services District #6 for fire protection. The agreed upon fee has been increased from $0.02 per $100 valuation to $0.03, resulting in $867,586 in fire protection revenue.

categories are budgeted based on averages from prior years, unless upcoming events indicate a change in revenue. Ball Field Lights - $10,000 - Organizations or individuals that use city ball fields are charged a fee for the use of ball field lighting. Ball field lights are charged at a rate of 20.00 per two hour block for residents and 25.00 per two hour block for non-residents. Pavilion Rentals - $8,500 - Organizations or individuals that use city pavilions are charged a fee for the use of pavilion spaces. A $50.00 fee is charged to residents, and a $100.00 fee is charged to non-residents. Tournament Fees - $3,500 - All teams registered in tournaments conducted by sports associations and/or promoters on city park facilities are subject to a registration fee of 10% of the total registration fee charged by the host, not to exceed $25.00. The same fee is charged to vendors for tournaments and other special events. Park User Fees - $9,500 - User fees are charged to youth sports associations under contract with the city for park facility usage. Amphitheater Revenue - $5,000 - Concerts and events held at the Mick Spellman Amphitheater collect fees for concession and ticket sales and event fees depending on the type of event. Most of the events held at the Spellman Amphitheater are city sponsored and free to the public, so concession sales make up the majority of the revenues for current and prior years.

Municipal Court Fines - $195,000 The majority of the City’s Municipal Court fines are collected from traffic and code violations. While the City retains the largest portion of these fines, based on the offense committed and other factors, portions of the fines are distributed to the state, the county and other agencies. Some of the fines collected by the Municipal Court have restrictions set on the use of those revenues and are accounted for in special revenue funds.

Revenue categories for Permits & Inspections are relatively self-explanatory. This revenue category as a whole is expected to finish 2019 at approximately 10% above the original budget, which indicates growth is continuing even though the pace has begun to slow. As in the prior year, the largest increases are in the areas of Zoning and Platting Fees and Engineering Inspection Fees. Building permits for the year are down significantly when compared to the previous year. However, the City still expects to issue over $1 million in building permits during the current year. Revenue estimates for 2019 are conservative, and take into account the slowing growth.

The Utility Fund Operating Transfer reimburses the General Fund for expenditures incurred on behalf of the utility related functions of the City. This includes salary and benefits for all employees that are partially funded from both funds. The Building Security Fund transfer is used to offset the cost of Police Officers functioning as Municipal Court Bailiff. The Juvenile Case Manager Fund transfer offsets the salary and benefits of one of the Deputy Court Clerk positions that handles juvenile cases. In previous years, the transfer from the Economic Development Corporation has covered a portion of Legal Services. For Fiscal Year 2020, this transfer has been adjusted to include a reimbursement for services from the Finance and IT departments, as well as a contribution to office expenses.

GENERAL FUND EXPENSES The General Fund accounts for all expenses not required to be accounted for in other funds. This includes the expenses for services such as Police, Fire, Parks, Streets, Community Development, City Council and all other administrative Services. By Category

BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS Legal Services has seen a significant increase in expenses during Fiscal Year 2019 as the result of fees paid to Special Counsel to maintain the City’s best interest in pending rate appeal cases to the Public Utilities Commission brought by several member cities against the North Texas Municipal Water District and brought by the City’s wholesale water customers against the City. These expenses are expected to continue into Fiscal Year 2020.

BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS The Finance department budget is expected to increase by 57% for Fiscal Year 2020. This is a major increase. However, it is due to reallocation of line items from the City Council budget and not due to an actual increase in expenses for the department. Expenses for the Ellen Brooks Memorial Library, the Layden Senior Center, Council committed tax incentives and agreements, and the General Fund Contingency have all been moved to this department.

GENERAL FUND OPERATING RESERVE FUND The Operating Reserve Fund is money that has been set aside in case of a catastrophic or emergency event. The required amount is calculated in each year’s budget process and transfers are established based on only the regular operating expense, meaning that all major non-recurring purchases are not included in the calculation. The goal is to have approximately three months operating costs in reserve so the City would be able to maintain uninterrupted service for at least that amount of time.

HOTEL OCCUPANCY TAX FUND Hotel Occupancy Tax is revenue collected from hotels and motels located within the Forney city limits. The amount paid to the city is set by ordinance at 7% of the room rate charged by the hotel or motel, excluding all other services provided (meals, laundry, etc.). These funds may be used for both advertising and operational expenditures, as long as the primary purpose of the event is to attract out of town visitors.

CAPITAL PURCHASES FUND The Capital Purchases Fund provides for General Fund capital purchases and is primarily funded by a transfer of unrestricted fund balance. The City defines capital purchases as any equipment (including software) with a price that exceeds $5,000 and has a useful life of over 3 years. This fund also simplifies the tracking of fixed assets for city staff and auditors, and allows for a quick reference for annual capital purchase spending.

UTILITY FUND The Utility Fund is an enterprise fund that accounts for the water, sewer, and refuse services that are provided to the City’s residents. All activities to maintain these services are accounted for in this fund, including but not limited to: operations, maintenance, billing and collections, administration and financing.

PERSONNEL

The Utility Fund accounts for 19 of the City’s 166.5 Full Time Equivalents. Of these 19 positions, only the six Utility Billing employees are fully funded from the Utility Fund. As Public Works functions largely as a single unit, with employees who are classified in one department often working on projects that would be accounted for in a different department, all Public Works employees in the Utility Fund are split 75% on the Utility Fund and 25% in the General Fund. All salary and benefits expenses are booked into the Utility Fund and the 25% funded from the General Fund is accounted for as part of the Utility Operating Transfer to the General Fund.

Sewer Pre-Treatment - $50,388 The North Texas Municipal Water District provides sewer pre-treatment services for industrial use. The budget is provided to the City by the North Texas Municipal Water District. Estimates are based on actual volumes being treated from the period from August to July of the preceding year. The City is billed for this service and the expense is booked to the Utility Billing department. The expense is then passed on to Smurfit Kappa and Luminant Energy and booked to this revenue account. Sewer Pro-Rata Fees - $1,200 The Sewer Pro Rata charge is made against the customer, developer or property owner to pay for the installation of sanitary sewer mains. The current budget is based on average collections in the current and previous years, this amount has been trending down and has been decreased for the upcoming year. Industrial Sewer Sales - $764,645 Industrial Sewer accounts for only two users: Smurfit Kappa and Luminant Energy. Smurfit Kappa pays for sewer under the terms of an industrial sewer agreement that allows for the company to pay the city at cost for every gallon that flows through the sewer system with an annual fixed profit margin. The agreement states that the cost per 1,000 will increase when the FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET

158


city’s costs are increased and that the agreed upon profit margin will be based on the calendar year. Smurfit’s cost per 1,000 gallons will increase by 16% in October, and the fixed profit margin will increase by 3% in January. Luminant Energy pays for sewer based on regular commercial rates and will also receive a 16% increase for Fiscal Year 2020.

Sewer Sales - $3,829,804

The City’s sanitary sewer is delivered to the North Texas Municipal Water District for treatment via the interceptor systems. Residential and senior monthly charges are calculated using the average water usage of the three months with the lowest usage during the four-month period of November through February. Commercial sewer is calculated using the same base rate and tiered scale as residential, but is based on actual month to month water usage.

Budgeting for Utility Services With regard to both sewer sales and water sales, it should be noted that staff uses a conservative approach in preparing the revenue estimates. Both revenue categories are based on customer usage and are directly impacted by weather conditions in a region where the conditions can rapidly go from drought to flood and back again. These variables can make determining estimates for year end and upcoming years challenging. Timing presents an additional challenge. Budgets are finalized during the final three months of the fiscal year, and those same months record the highest levels of revenue in the Utility Fund.

With the substantial growth that has continued into and throughout Fiscal Year 2019, it is anticipated that sewer revenues will see an increase from the addition of new connections. A conservative estimate of 2% is included to account for this growth. It must be taken into account that while this growth increases revenues, it also increases costs. More connections to the City’s sewer system increase the 159

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET


rate of flow, which impacts the immediate cost of moving wastewater. There is also a more costly effect in that more connections also lead to a long term need for more sewer capacity and this requires that infrastructure be expanded and upgraded. This is being seen in the Fiscal Year 2020 flow and cost estimates from the North Texas Municipal Water District. The cost to the city for transporting and processing wastewater will be increasing by 61%. This budget only increasing the rate charged to our citizens by 10%. It is also important to note here that the sewer growth estimate is a larger increase than is anticipated for water revenue. Many of the areas currently experiencing rapid development are on the City’s sewer system, but purchase water from one of the three utility districts that overlap the City limits. These connections have an additional cost increase as the utility districts charge the city an administration fee for billing city sewer on their water bills. Sewer District Sales - $360,018 The City provides wholesale sewer services to two housing developments located within the ETJ: Devonshire and Vintage Meadows. These sewer contracts are structured similar to the city’s agreements with the Water Districts. The Sewer Districts are responsible for a minimum annual amount based on actual usage from previous years, with a possible adjustment at the conclusion of the year. Sewer Discharge Sales - $55,000 Luminant Energy uses water to produce electricity and the water is metered, discharged, and then treated. The City is paid per gallon for the additional expense resulting from treating this water. Industrial Water Sales - $1,045,198 Industrial Water, like Industrial Sewer, currently only has two users: Smurfit Kappa and Luminant Energy. The terms of Smurfit Kappa’s water agreement are the same as the sewer agreement. The company pays for water flow at the same rate as the city pays the North Texas Municipal Water District per gallon. There is also an agreed upon annual fixed profit margin. Smurfit Kappa’s rate per 1,000 gallons for water will increase by 2.4% in October, and the fixed profit margin will increase by 3% in January. Luminant Energy relies heavily on reclaimed water, and their total potable water consumption is relatively low. Their water is billed at the regular commercial rate and will increase by 2.4% for the 2020 Fiscal Year. Water Sales - $3,925,645 This represents water sales generated from approximately 6,000 residential and 400 commercial water customers inside the city limits. The amount charged for water service is a

base rate plus a tiered scale for any usage over 2,000 gallons. The City’s water is purchased from the North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD) for resale to our customers. A 2.4% increase in water rates is budgeted for Fiscal Year 2020. The North Texas Municipal Water District will be increasing their rates by 2.4% and the city’s increase would be a pass through of the cost increase. Please note that this increase is just for purchasing water and entirely excludes the many costs associated with moving the water from the NTMWD take point to the end user. Operating costs related to water have increased a little over 50% from Fiscal Year 2014 - 2018. Active water system capital improvement projects (required additional infrastructure) total around $12 Million. Annual debt payments related to water have also increased 2% during this period. All of these items impact the total cost of purchasing and delivering water to our citizens.

Water District Water Sales - $4,525,880 The City contracts with four water districts for the provision of water on a take or pay basis. This allows the City to plan for a minimum revenue stream on which it can rely to purchase the supply for such contracts. Contracts are based on a water consumption period that runs from August to July. This allows the city to bill adjustments for any overages, and notify the water districts of rates for the upcoming year prior to the fiscal year end. The revenue budgeted for the next fiscal year is the minimum amount the contract will produce and is determined on a formula basis contained in the contracts. The four water districts are allocated 1,066,555,000 gallons (51.45%) of the city’s 1,956,485,000 gallon take-or-pay contract minimum with the North Texas Municipal Water District.

There is a difference of $62,833 between what is shown in the chart and what was budgeted for Water District Revenue. At the time the budget was finalized, final readings had not been entered. Highpoint Water Supply exceeded the 2019 contracted minimum by 13,209,000 gallons and increased their take or pay minimum from 228,095,000 to 241,304,000 gallons resulting in additional revenue. This will be adjusted during the 2020 budget revision process.

Reclaimed Water Sales - $1,500,000 The City purchases reclaimed water from the City of Garland and in turn sells it to Luminant Energy at a mark-up of $0.10 per 1,000 gallons. This type of water cannot be utilized as a potable source but is an excellent alternative for this type of industrial application. The arrangement is a straight-forward demand purchase, meaning that less demand from our end user results in less reclaimed water purchased from the City of Garland. Meter Sales - $65,000 This fee is charged for each new meter set connecting to the City’s water system and is based on the size of the meter being purchased. Transfer Fees - $900 This fee is charged for transferring existing utility services from one location within the city limits to another. Connection Fees - $25,000 The connection fee is a charge of $25.00 applied to each new service. Refuse and Recycling Sales - $908,000 The City contracts refuse and recycling collection with Community Waste Disposal (CWD) for residential and senior utility customers. Commercial services are not provided by the City and must be contracted directly with CWD. FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET

The Fiscal Year 2020 budget includes a 5% increase in refuse collection rates. The City’s contract with CWD allows for an annual price increase based on the amount equal to the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in January of each year. This increase is capped at 5%. The cost of garbage collection was increased by 5% in January of 2019 and the increase was included in the Fiscal Year 2019 operating budget.

BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS The Sewer department will decrease by approximately 87%. This is the result of removing multiple positions that were added in the original Fiscal Year 2019 budget, never filled, and then determined to be unnecessary by new management. The reduced operating costs are also the result of reallocation of major maintenance projects to the capital improvement program. Sewer 1513

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET


UTILITY OPERATING RESERVE The Operating Reserve Fund is money that has been set aside in case of a catastrophic or emergency event. The required amount is calculated in each year’s budget process and transfers are established based on only the regular operating expense, meaning that all major non-recurring purchases are not included in the calculation. The goal is to have approximately three months operating costs in reserve allowing the City to maintain uninterrupted service for at least that amount of time.

LEGAL DEBT MARGINS FOR GENERAL OBLIGATIONS All taxable property within the City is subject to the assessment, levy and collection by the City of a continuing, direct annual ad valorem tax that is sufficient to provide for the payment of principal and of interest on all ad valorem tax debt within the limits prescribed by law. Article XI, Section 5, of the Texas Constitution is applicable to the City, and provides for a maximum ad valorem tax rate of $2.50 per $100 taxable assessed valuation for all City purposes. The Home Rule Charter of the City adopts the constitutionally authorized maximum tax rate of $2.50 per $100 taxable assessed valuation. Administratively, the Attorney General of the State of Texas will permit allocation of $1.50 of the $2.50 maximum tax rate for all general obligation debt service, as calculated at the time of issuance and based on a 90% collection rate.

GENERAL DEBT SERVICE The primary source of revenue for the General Debt Service Fund is the ad valorem property tax. The proposed ad valorem tax rate of $0.58 is split into two rates. Approximately 33% ($0.193875) of the tax revenue is used to pay principal and interest on the City’s outstanding general obligation debt. The remaining 67% ($0.386125) of the revenue generated by the tax rate is used to pay for maintenance and operating costs incurred in the General Fund.

The Debt Service (DS) portion of the tax rate covers the City’s bond payments and other outstanding debt. This portion of the tax rate is not flexible, and is set by a calculation based on the required fiscal year payments of the City’s debt. Fiscal Year 2020’s debt service rate is $0.193875. This is a decrease of $0.034 (-14.9%) from the Fiscal Year 2019 rate, resulting in $3,374,498 in revenue to be used for debt payments. The Debt Service tax rate is calculated by subtracting any revenue paid from other sources from the annual required debt payment and then dividing that result by the adjusted taxable value and multiplying by 100. (Total annual debt payment) – (Non-tax revenue) ÷ (Adjusted Taxable Value) x 100 = Debt Service Tax Rate ((6,090,166 – 2681,583) ÷ 1,758,138,986) x 100 = $0.193875

In addition to revenue from the debt service portion of the tax rate, the city receives an annual payment from the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) as part of a Pass Through Tolling agreement. With this agreement, the City sold the 2008 General Obligation Bonds to fund the expansion of three state owned roadways within the city limits, and oversaw the construction. Upon completion of the projects, responsibility for the roadways was returned to the state and TxDOT began to reimburse the City annually. 187

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET


Repayment is structured with a minimum annual payment, with an additional accelerated portion (amount above the guaranteed minimum annual payment) based on traffic counts. The minimum annual payment is $2,009,570. The City Council has deemed any amount above the minimum payment be held as committed fund balance and, if possible, used for early redemption in order to reduce future interest payments. The city has redeemed an additional $13,025,000 resulting in $7,044,038 in interest savings. Combined with general obligation refunding and increasing property values, this early redemption process has also helped to decrease the debt service tax rate by $0.238220 since Fiscal Year 2014. To date, the 2014 Certificates of Obligation and the 2017 Tax Notes have not impacted the debt service tax rate. The proceeds from the certificates were used to fund construction of Fire Station #2 and the new Animal Shelter, and the proceeds from the tax notes funded fire department equipment. The payments have been made from fund balance in the Debt Service fund. This fund balance is the result of interest collected in the fund, as well as delinquent and penalty taxes that have accumulated over prior years and is restricted to use on debt payments.

Completion Date: October 2015 Bond Interest Recognizing that there would be a gap between the time where bond payments became due and the time that TxDOT began making the Pass Through Reimbursements, $3,239,848 of the bond issue was used to decrease the annual Series 2008 Bond Payments from Fiscal Year 2009 to Fiscal Year 2012. This reduced the impact on the debt service tax rate over three years. Bond Issuance Costs Total Cost: $315,153 All of the proceeds from the 2008 General Obligation Bonds have been spent. Pass Through Toll Program – Early Redemption The Pass Through Toll Program is an agreement between the City and the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT).

TAX REINVESTMENT ZONE FUND

GENERAL CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS

UTILITY CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT FUNDS Unlike the City’s operating budget, the capital improvement budget does not conclude at the end of each fiscal year. Many of the larger projects remain in progress for multiple years. As economic conditions and the needs of the Forney community change, it is often necessary to reprioritize which projects receive funding. Capital improvements are defined as facilities and infrastructure that have a life expectancy of three or more years and are owned and operated by or on behalf of a political subdivision. Generally, CIP Projects are relatively expensive and non-recurring, have a multi-year useful life, and result in fixed assets. This includes construction and acquisition of new buildings, construction and reconstruction of streets, water and sanitary sewer improvements, drainage

203

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET


improvements, and land purchases. Occasionally, studies and master plans that will impact land use, facilities, and infrastructure are accounted for as part of the CIP.

Factors considered in the evaluation of capital projects: 

The purchase and replacement of vehicles and equipment are not included with capital projects but are fixed assets. Information on General Fund fixed assets can be found in the Capital Purchases Fund. Capital purchases for the Utility Fund and the Economic Development Corporation Fund can be found within each of those funds.

 

PLANNING PROCESS Capital Projects are requested by the Department Directors as part of the annual budget process. Requests are submitted and then reviewed by the City Manager’s Office and finance staff. Projects approved by the City Manager are then presented to the City Council along with the annual operating budget for final approval. The Capital Project Five Year Plan is also reviewed and updated at that time.

 

Community Economic Effects Fiscal Impacts Whether an urgent need or opportunity is present Alignment with City Council Strategic Plan Implications of deferring the project Amount of disruption and inconvenience Environmental, aesthetic and social effects Health and safety effects Feasibility, including public support and project readiness Advantages that would accrue from relation to other capital projects

Occasionally, the need arises to add a new project outside of the annual budget process. When this occurs, the project is presented to the City Council through the regular budget amendment process. The Capital Improvement Program is comprised of four funds:    

General Fund Capital Improvement Fund Utility Capital Improvement Fund Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone (TIRZ) Fund EDC Capital Improvement Fund - The information on the EDC Capital Improvement Fund is included in the Economic Development Corporation section.

The City of Forney separates capital improvement projects into several categories within these funds: GENERAL CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS ► General Facilities ► Roads, Signalization, Drainage ► Pass Through Toll – These are capital improvements made in partnership with the State of Texas on state owned roadways whereby the City advances the funding for the project, oversees the construction process and is reimbursed by the state over a

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET

204


period of years. At completion of the project, the state retains ownership of the asset and is responsible for regular maintenance. ► Parks and Recreation ► Combination Projects – These are capital improvements to the City’s roadway, water and/or sewer systems that are performed together in order to reduce cost and time spent on the project. UTILITY CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS ► Water ► Sewer ► Combination

COMPLETED PROJECTS The following capital projects were completed during Fiscal Year 2019. ► ► ► ► ► ► ►

Fire Station #2 - $4,082,524 Mulberry Park Paving - $405,281 Downtown Crosswalks - $43,594 Pedestrian Crossing Signals Downtown - $20,239 Broad Street Sewer - $596,183 Irish Ridge Sewer - $2,975,105 Design of the Mustang Creek S Lift Station - $1,660,834

ESTIMATED IMPACT ON OPERATING As projects in the Capital Improvement Program are completed, responsibility for the improvement is turned over to the proper city department. The department is then responsible for any costs associated with the maintenance and operation of the final asset. Depending on the type of project, the results of the improvement can have no operating impact or can increase or decrease operating expenses. Occasionally, projects will also impact revenue. Estimates of the impact of the completed projects are listed below, and estimates for active projects are included with the individual project details. Project

The Mulberry Park Parking lot may begin requiring regular maintenance once it ages three or four years. The downtown crosswalks should not have any significant impact on operations. There should be no significant impact on operations. Regular repairs had become necessary to the existing sewer along this area of Broad Street. These improvements will reduce the money spent on regular maintenance. This project will impact the Interceptor fund for the first four years with new debt payments on the interceptor expansion. There will be an offset through an increase in the sewer service charge paid by citizens to support interceptor debt.

UTILITY CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT FUND The Utility Capital Improvement Project Fund includes projects funded from bond proceeds, transfers from the Utility Fund, and Water and Sewer Impact Funds. Many of the funding sources are restricted to use on specific projects, or specific types of projects. In this case, any funds remaining at the completion of a project are returned to the restricted fund. When possible, remaining balances from completed projects remain in the CIP fund to aid in the funding of future projects.

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET


TAX REINVESTMENT ZONE FUND The Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone was established in December 2008 by City Council and includes approximately 1,730 acres of land. The Zone was created as an economic development tool that uses the tax generated by new valuations to help finance the cost of improvements needed to promote development within the Zone. The City contributes 85% of the taxes collected in the Zone (less taxes collected on the base value) to the TIRZ fund. The City entered into an interlocal agreement with Kaufman County to participate in the Zone by contributing 50% of the County tax rate (less taxes collected on the base value) to the TIRZ fund.

Tax Revenue - $2,171,008 In May of 1994, Forney citizens approved an additional 1.00% sales tax for the purpose of creating and funding the Forney Economic Development Corporation (EDC) and property tax reduction. Half of the approved 1.00% funds the FEDC and the other half is retained by the City in order to offset property taxes. Estimates for sales tax collections are based on prior year collections and trends. Over the past five years, sales tax revenues have increased an average of 13% per year. This continued increase is indicative of a growing local economy, resulting from continued population growth within the city limits and the surrounding areas, as well as increased commercial development. The City has always taken a very conservative approach to budgeting sales tax. The Fiscal Year 2019 budget assumed a 5% increase in sales tax revenue and actual collections are trending toward an increase of 16% over the prior year. For Fiscal Year 2020, an increase of 5% from the current year end estimate is expected. Interest & Penalty - $20,000 Interest is collected on checking accounts and investments. Miscellaneous - $105,334 Miscellaneous Income for the EDC includes lease income, sale of properties, and minor, onetime payments made for small events or training courses hosted by the Forney Economic Development Corporation.

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET


GLOSSARY Account A separate financial reporting unit for budgeting, management, or accounting purposes. All budgetary transactions, whether revenue or expenditure, are recorded in accounts. Several related accounts may be grouped together in a fund. A list of the accounts into which money can be put or taken is called the chart of accounts. Accounting Standards The generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) promulgated by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board that guide the recording and reporting of financial information by the state and local governments. The standards establish such guidelines as when transactions are recognized (accrual, modified accrual, or cash basis), the types and purposes of funds, and the content and organization of the annual financial report. At the federal level, accounting standards are developed by the Federal Accounting Standards Advisory Board. Accrual Basis Refers to when a financial transaction is recorded. Accrual is a method of accounting in which revenues are recorded when measurable and earned, and expenses are recognized when a good or service is used. For example, professional fees is an expense that recognizes the use of services form attorneys, engineers, etc. In the case of modified accrual accounting, expenditures are recognized when the goods or services are received and revenues, such as taxed, are recognizes when measurable and available to pay expenditures in the current accounting period. See Basis of Accounting. Accrued Interest In the sale of a new issue of municipal bonds, the dollar amount, based on the stated rate or rates of interest, which as accrued on the bonds from the dated date, or other stated date, up to but not to including the date of delivery. When a bond is purchased in the secondary market, the dollar amount, based upon the stated rate of interest, which has accrued on the bond form the most recent interest payment date, up to but not including the date of settlement. Accrued interest is paid to the seller by the purchaser and is usually calculated on a 360-day-year basis (assumes each month has 30 days). See Interest. Activity Departmental efforts that contribute toward the accomplishment of specific, identified program objectives. Ad Valorem Tax A direct tax based “according to value� of property. Counties and school districts and municipalities usually are, and special tax districts may be, authorized by law to levy ad valorem taxes on property other than intangible personal property. Local governmental bodies with taxing power may issue bonds or short-term certificates payable from ad valorem taxation. See Tax. Compare Excise Tax; Special Assessment. Allotment The gradual release of funds to departments or other units within government that prevents the premature depletion of their appropriation. Amortization The process of paying the principal amount of an issue of bonds by the periodic payments either directly to bondholders or to a sinking fund for the benefit of bondholders. Payments are usually calculated to include interest in addition to a partial payment of the original principal amount. See Debt Service. Amortization Schedule A table showing the gradual repayment of an amount of indebtness, such as a mortgage or bond, over a period of time. Appropriation Legal authorization to make expenditures or enter into obligations for specific purposes. Appropriations are normally passed by the council every year. An appropriation may be approved for operating expenditures and another for capital items, or one appropriation may be passed for both types of expenditures.

Assessed Valuation An annual determination of the just or fair market value of property by the county property appraiser for purposes of ad valorem taxation. If a tax on property is imposed by virtue of the value of its use, the assessed valuation is its classified use value. Assessed Value The value of property for the purposes of levying property taxes. In some states the assessed value is the same as the market value less exemptions, while in others it is some fraction of market value. Available Fund Balance Money remaining from prior years that is not committed for other purposes and can be allocated in the upcoming budget. Balanced Budget Current revenues equal current expenditures. The legal requirements for a balanced budget may be set by the state or local government. Bond A way of borrowing money long term for capital projects. A bond is a promise to repay money borrowed on a particular date often 10 or 20 years in the future. Most bonds also involve a promise to pay a specified dollar amount of interest at predetermined intervals. Bond Proceeds The money paid to the issuer by the purchaser or underwriter for a new issue of municipal bonds, used to finance the project or purpose for which the bonds were issued and to pay certain costs of issuance as ma be provided in the bond contract. Budget A plan for spending that balances revenues and expenditures over a fixed time period, usually a year, and that includes, at least by implication, a work plan. In actual practice the term budget has two connotations: the financial plan presented to the body for adoption; and the plan finally approved by that body. It is usually necessary to specify whether the budget under consideration is proposed or whether it has been approved by the appropriating body, although this may be clear from the context. Budget Amendment The budget may be formally amended after it has been approved. Amendments may be required, for example, with the incorporation of a new labor contract or if revenues fall or grow beyond projections. Budget Calendar A time table with deadlines when particular tasks must be completed in order for council to approve the spending plan before the beginning of the next fiscal year. Budget Cycle The budget cycle includes preparation of budget requests, legislative approval of the budget requests, budget implementation, and summary reporting on actual budget transactions. Budget Guidelines Once revenue projections are in place, the chief executive, along with key policy makers, develops guidelines to provide a sense of the budget environment for the forthcoming year. Departments can then make appropriate budgetary requests based on this information. Budget Manual A booklet prepared by the budget office that provides a description of the budget process and the forms departments need to prepare their budget requests. The manual will also contain the budget calendar. Budget Reserves Money accumulated for future purposes in the case of unforeseen circumstances or for the replacement of buildings or equipment. Building Improvement (reserves) Money accumulates for deferred maintenance, renovations, and repairs to government-owned facilities. Capital Assets Things the city owns, such as buildings, land, roads, bridges, and water treatment plants, that cost a considerable amount of money and that are intended to last a long time.

251

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET


Capital Budget A spending plan for improvements to or acquisition of land, facilities, and infrastructure that balances revenues and expenditures, specifies the sources of revenues, and lists each project or acquisition. Normally a capital budget must be approved by the legislative body. The capital budget and accompanying appropriation ordinance may be included in a consolidated budget document that has a section devoted to capital expenditures and another to operating expenditures, or two separate documents may be prepared – one for the capital budget and capital improvement plan and another one for the operating budget. Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) A list of projects for a period of time, usually five years, by department. It may or may not list anticipated revenues to pay for the projects, and is not appropriated like a budget, but may be adopted by the legislative body to indicate approval. A CIP does not grant permission to commit funds, but the first of the plan is normally designated as the capital budget for the forthcoming year. As each year’s list of projects is approved and completed, another year of projects is added to the plan to maintain the five-year planning horizon. Capital Outlay Spending on fixed assets usually above a certain minimum in cost, such as equipment that is intended to last more than a year or purchases above a minimum cutoff point in cost, such as $5,000. Capital Projects Funds One or more governmental type of funds established to account for resources used for the acquisition of large capital improvements, other than those accounted for in proprietary or trust funds. Capitalized Interest or Funded Interest A portion of the proceeds of a bond issue set aside, upon issuance of the bonds, to pay interest on the bonds for a specified period of time. Interest is commonly capitalized during the construction of a revenue-producing project. Cash Flow A sufficient amount of cash on hand to cover disbursements or payments that are coming due. Part of the duties of the finance director is to ensure sufficient cash is on hand or available in short term investments to meet expected disbursements. Change Orders A change in the design or specifications of an already approved capital project that often creates a need for an increased expense. Chart of Accounts A way of recording revenues and expenditures that includes all transactions and that fits the organizational structure. A chart of accounts assigns a unique number to each type of transaction (e.g. salaries or property taxes) and to each budgetary unit in the organization. Comprehensive Annual Financial Report Usually called the CAFR, this report summarizes financial data for the previous fiscal year in a standardized format. An outside auditor often examines this document to judge if it represents fairly the financial condition of the city. The auditor’s report is usually attached to the CAFR. The CAFR organizes information by fund and contains two basic types of statements: (1) a balance sheet that compares assets with liabilities and fund balance and (2) an operating statement that compares revenues with expenditures. A particular variation of the operating statement compares the budgeted amounts with the actual levels of revenues and expenditures. Constant Services The cost of providing this year’s level of services next year. Sometimes called a maintenance-of-effort budget, the constant services level is used as a baseline for budget calculations. Contingency A budgeted account set aside to meet unforeseen circumstances. Current Assets Those assets than can be easily converted to cash within the current year.

252


Debt Limit The maximum amount of debt which an issuer of municipal securities is permitted to incur under constitutional, statutory or charter provisions. Debt Service Annual payments of interest and principle that the city owes on money that it has borrowed. Debt Service Funds One or more funds established to account for revenues and expenditures used to repay the principal and interest on debt. Designated Fund Balance That portion of a fund’s liquid net assets that is earmarked for contingencies or other possible uses yet are still available for appropriation. Unlike the reserved portion, the designated portion of the fund balance does not have a binding commitment for how the resources will be used. See Reserved Fund Balance and Undesignated Fund Balance. Disbursement Payment for goods or services that have been delivered and invoiced. Discretionary Accounts Funds set aside in the budget that may be used in emergencies or other anticipated contingencies. Earmarking Revenue from fees and licenses, taxes, or grants may be designated as to how it may be spent. Many state and federal grants are earmarked for particular types of projects. Encumbrances Budget authority that is set aside to pay for expenditures that have been committed either by the authorization of a purchase order or by a contract. Enterprise Fund A separate fund that supports services primarily from fees. Examples are water, sewer, golf, and airport funds. Some local governments also treat as enterprises those funds that run like a business and charge fees, but do not cover all their costs; the remaining costs may be transferred out of the general or other funds or may come form grants or earmarked taxes. Enterprise fund agencies generate their own revenue through the sale of services. That revenue directly affects spending levels of that agency. Enterprises Government-owned services, such as utilities, that operate on a fee-for-service rather than a tax-paid basis. Equipment Replacement (reserves) Money made available for purchasing operating equipment and vehicles as they become obsolete or unusable. Executive Budget A proposed budget put together by the chief executive or his or her designee for review and approval or modification by the legislative branch. Executive Budget Hearings After an initial review by the central budget office, these hearings provide an opportunity for departments to explain to the chief executive and the budget staff their requests, how costs were estimated, what the perceived need is, and what community goals and objectives will be affected. They are treated as managerial staff meetings and as such normally are not open to the public. Feasibility Study A report of the financial practicality of a proposed project and financing thereof, which may include estimates of revenues that will be generated and a review of the physical, operating, economic, or engineering aspects of the proposed project. Fiduciary Funds These funds account for resources that governments hold in trust for individuals or other governments. Fiscal Year A designated 12 month period for budgeting and for record keeping purposes. All the financial transactions within that twelve month period are presented together, to see if revenues cover expenditures.

253

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET


Fixed assets The least liquid of assets such as land, buildings, equipment, and other improvements. Full-Time Equivalent The number of hours per year that a full time employee is expected to work. Two workers who each work half that number of hours together equal one full time equivalent. The hours of a number of part timers or temporary workers can be added up to see how many full time positions they are equivalent to. Fund A self-balancing set of accounts. Governmental budgeting and accounting is based on a series of funds, each with separate revenues, expenditures, and balances. Each fund is set up for a separate purpose and each fund balances its assets against liabilities and any residual becomes fund balance. Fund Balance The difference between a fund’s assets and its liabilities. Portions of the fund balance may be reserved for various purposes such as contingencies or encumbrances at the end of the fiscal year. GAAP See Generally Accepted Accounting Principles GASB See Governmental Accounting Standards Board. General Fund The major fund in most governmental units. While other funds tend to be restricted to a single purpose, the general fund is a catch all, for general governmental purposes that are not broken out separately in a single purpose fund. Most basic functions, such as police, fire, and streets, are usually located in the general fund. General Obligation (GO) Bond A particular kind of bond backed by the full faith and credit of the issuing entity in which the pledge of security to pay back the bond is the government’s ability to raise taxes. This is very secure for the investors, and therefore helps lower borrowing costs. Ad valorem taxes necessary to pay debt service on GO bonds are typically not subject to the constitutional property tax millage limits. Such bonds constitute debts of the issuer and normally require approval by election prior to issuance. In the event of default, the holders of GO bonds have the right to compel a tax or legislative appropriation, by mandamus or injunction, in orde to satisfy the issuer’s obligation. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) Uniform minimum standards for financial recording and reporting established by the accounting profession through such independent entities as the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. GFOA See Government Finance Offers Association. Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) The body that sets accounting standards specifically for governmental entities at the state and local level. Government Finance Officers Association Professional organization primarily of state and local government finance offers. Grants A payment of money from one governmental unit to another or from a government to a not for profit. Grants are often earmarked for a specific purpose or program. Home Rule A limited grant of discretion from state governments to local governments, concerning either the organization of functions or the raising of revenue. Without home rule, local governments are restricted to whatever functions, organization, and revenue sources are specified by the state government, and are bound by whatever limits in revenue or borrowing that state requires. Impound The discretion of the chief executive to restrict spending during an economic slowdown when revenues fail to keep pace with what was budgeted.

254


Income Elastic A source of revenue that increases or decreases at a greater rate than growth or decline in the economy such as a general sales tax. Incremental Budget Process Historical shares determine how funds will be allocated among departments and programs. Infrastructure Basic public investments such as streets, storm drainage, water and sewer lines, street lighting, and sidewalks. Informed Judgment One of four types of techniques used to project revenues, professional or informed judgment is essential to preparing defensible estimates regardless of what other methodology is used. Professional judgment comes with experience and careful observation. Interdepartmental Order (IDO) An internal order between departments and reimbursement for goods and services, usually initiated by the head of an agency. Interest Compensation for the use of borrowed money, generally expressed as an annual percentage of the principal amount. Interest Rate The annual percentage of principal payable for the use of borrowed money. Interfund Borrowing Occurs because of a temporary shortfall in revenue for a fund offset by a surplus in another. Interfund Transfers The movement of money from one fund to another in a governmental unit. Interfund transfers are normally governed by rules of what is and is not permissible, and usually have to be approved by the legislative body. Interim Financial Reports Quarterly or monthly comparison of budgeted amounts with actual amounts of revenues and expenditures to date. These reports provide an important early warning to decision makers of impending overruns in expenditures or shortfalls in revenues. Internal Service Accounts A system of rationing services that some departments provide to others, by giving the recipient departments budgets to buy service from the provider departments. Because it costs the recipient departments money, presumably they use less of these internally provided services, such as photocopying and printing, automobile repair, and computer services. Internal Service Funds One or more funds that accounts for the goods and services provided by one department to another within government on a cost-reimbursement basis. Issuance Authorization, sale, and delivery of a new issue of municipal securities. Issuer A state, political subdivision, agency, or authority that borrows money through the sale of bonds or notes. Legislative Budget The council or a committee of the governing board receives requests directly from departments and pares them back, with a minimal role for the executive branch. Level Debt Service An arrangement of serial maturities in which the amount of principal maturing increased at approximately the same rate as the amount of interest declines, resulting in substantially equal annual debt service payments over the life of the bonds. Line-Item Budget A format for budgeting in which departmental outlays are grouped according the items that will be purchased, one item or groups of items on each line of the budget. See Object of expenditure.

255

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET


Line-Item Veto A rejection by the executive of one item or groups of items in a line-item budget. Liquidity Usually refers to the ability to convert assets (such as investments) into cash. Mandate A requirement form a higher level of government that a lower level of government perform some task or perform the task in a particular way or at a particular standard often without compensation from the higher form of government. Marginal Cost The additional cost of adding one more resident or consumer to those receiving a service. Once capacity is reached, the marginal cost increases substantially as additional service capacity must now be funded. Maturity The date upon which the principal of municipal bond becomes due and payable to the bondholder. Modified Accrual See Accrual Basis. Municipal Bonds or Municipals A general term referring to bonds of local governmental subdivisions such as cities, towns, villages, counties, and special districts as well as states and subdivisions thereof, which are exempt from federal income taxation. Also includes other tax-exempt debt done as conduit financings. Net Assets In the proprietary and fiduciary funds this is the difference between assets and liabilities. It is analogous to fund balance in the governmental funds. Net Revenue The amount of money available after subtracting from gross revenues such costs and expenses as may be provided in a bond contract. New Issue Bonds offered to investors for the first time. Note A written, short-term promise of the issuer to repay a specified principal amount on a certain date, together with interest at a stated rate, or according to a formula for determining that rate, payable from a defined source of anticipated revenue. A variety of note types are used according to the anticipated revenue source: Bond Anticipation Notes (BANs), Construction Loan Notes (CLNs), Grant Anticipation Notes (GANs), Revenue Anticipation Notes (RANs), and Tax Anticipation Notes (TANs). Object of Expenditure A way of grouping and displaying in the budget the items to be purchased. Commodities would be a major classification; office supplies might be a minor classification. Same as lineitem budgeting. Obligations See Encumbrances. Official Statement or Final Official Statement (OS) Document published by the issuer which generally discloses material information on a bond issue, including the purposes of the bond issue, how the bonds will be repaid, and the financial, economic, and demographic characteristics of the issuing government. Investors may use this information to evaluate the credit quality of the bonds. Operating Budget The portion of a budget that deals with routinely recurring expenditures, such as salaries, electricity bills for city hall, postage, printing and duplicating, paper supplies, and gasoline for automobiles. The operating budget is in a sense the opposite of a capital budget, which includes one-time, or non recurring costs for major expenditures of items or projects intended to last a long time. The operating and the capital budget, or a consolidated document may be prepared that has a section devoted to operating expenditures and another to capital.

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET

256


Operating Deficit The amount by which this year’s (or this budget period’s) revenues are exceeded by this year’s (or this budget period’s) expenditures. An operating deficit does no take into account balances left over from prior years that may used to pay off this year’s shortfall. Pay-As-You-Go Paying for capital projects out of current tax and grant revenues rather than issuing debt to pay for them. Pay-As-You-Use Incurring debt to pay for capital outlays rather than paying out of current revenues. Payments in Lieu of Taxes (PILOTS) One method used to decide how much money is appropriate to transfer from enterprises into a government’s general fund using the argument that such payments are in exchange for taxes that would have been paid if the service had been provided by a privately owned firm. Per Capita Debt The amount of an issuer’s debt divided by population, which is used as an indication of the issuer’s credit position by reference to the proportionate debt borne per resident. Permanent Funds A category of governmental funds, established by GASBS 34, used to report on funds whose outflow is legally restriced to the earnings, not principal, from the fund for purposes that benefit the government or its citizens. Planning, Programming, Budgeting System (PBBS) A budget reform that links budgeting with planning and evaluation on a program by program basis. Rather than allocating funds along departmental lines, PPBS organizes budget information around and allocates funds to programs, which are activities with a common goal. PPBS, or program budgeting, sought to introduce more formal economic analysis into budget deliberations by requiring that the benefits and costs of each program be determined and that funds be allocated to those programs providing the greatest net benefits. Very few governments use PPBS today, but emphasis on performance and on outcomes has brought back some of the elements of PPBS. Principal The face amount or par value of a bond or issue of bonds payable on staed dates of maturity. Productivity The ratio of cost per unit of goods or services produced to quality. Productivity increases when the cost per unit goes down when quality remains constant or increases. Program Budget See Planning, Programming, Budgeting System. Public Finance Refers to the financing, either on tax-exempt or taxable basis, by municipalities for various capital and/or operating needs. Public Hearings Open meetings regarding proposed budget allocations—either operating or capital—that provide citizens an opportunity to voice their views on the merits of proposals. Ratings Evaluations of the credit quality of notes and bonds usually made by independent rating services, although many financial institutions also rate bonds for their own purposes. Ratings generally measure the probability of the timely repayment of principal and interest on the bonds. Ratings are initially made before issuance and are continuously reviewed and may be amended to reflect changes in the issuer’s credit position. The information required by the ratings agencies varies with each bond issue, but generally includes demographics, debt burden, economic base, finances, and management structure. The information is evaluated and the issue is assigned a letter rating which reflects the creditworthiness of the bonds. The higher the credit rating, the more favorable the effect on the marketability of the bond. Rainy Day Funds Revenue stabilization reserves that provides resources when revenues decline due to a recession, loss of a major taxpayer, or other event that temporarily results in a loss of tax revenues.

257

FISCAL YEAR 2020 OPERATING BUDGET


Reserve Fund The fund which may be used to pay debt service if the sources of the pledged revenues do not generate sufficient funds to satisfy the debt service requirements. The reserve fund is either funded in whole or in part from the proceeds of the bonds or is allowed to accumulate gradually over a period of years through required payments from the pledged revenues. If the reserve fund is used in whole or in part to pay debt service, the issuer usually is required to replenish the reserve fund from the first available funds or revenues. A typical reserve requirement might be the maximum aggregate annual debt service requirement for any year remaining until the bonds reach maturity. The size and investment of the reserve may be subject to arbitrage regulations. Reserved Fund Balance That portion of a fund’s fund balance that are not available for appropriation because they have been legally committed to some future use. See Designated Fund Balance and Undesignated Fund Balance. Reserves for Debt Service An account usually for revenue bonds used to provide funds in the event revenues are insufficient to repay the principal and interest on debt that is coming due in the current year. Retirement of Debt The payment of principal and interest due to the bondholders. Salary Savings The reduced expenditures for salaries that result whenever positions remain unfilled for part of a year due to personnel changes. The use of salary savings is a matter that should be clarified in an operating budget policy. Some governments budget salaries net of salary savings; others allow departments to retain any salary savings; still others allow the budget office to capture salary savings for reallocation during the year to other departments or programs. Special Revenue Funds A type of fund used to account for revenues legally earmarked for a particular purpose. For example, a hotel/motel occupancy tax may be earmarked for tourism and convention development. A Hotel/Motel Tax fund would then account for the revenues and expenditures associated with such purposes. Special Districts Single or limited purpose units of government formed under state enabling legislation to meet certain local needs not satisfied by existing general purpose governments in a given geographical area. Special districts may be granting taxing powers. An independent special district is on whose governing body is an independent entity and whose budget is established independently of the local governing authority. See Authority. Take or Pay Contract A sales agreement which requires the purchaser to pay the seller whether or not goods or services are available and, if available, whether or not the purchaser uses them. This type of requirement is generally used in electric power sales contracts which stipulate that payment will be made by the purchasers to the electricity wholesaler whether or not conditioned upon the performance of the wholesaler, the completion or operation of the power project or the use of the goods or services. Tax or Taxes Compulsory charges levied by a government unit for the purpose of raising revenue. Taxes should be distinguished from special assessments, which are levied according to the actual benefits derived, and from fees which must bear a reasonable relation to the costs of administration or regulation and are imposed under the police power. Tax revenues are used to pay for services or improvements provided for the general public benefit. See Ad Valorem Tax; Excise Tax. Compare Special Assessment. Tax Base The total property and resources or transactions (as in sales) available for taxation. Tax Expenditures Abatements, partial or full exemptions, tax credits, deductions or other foregone tax revenues. Tax Rate The amount of tax stated in terms of a unit of the tax base; for example, 10 mill per dollar of assessed valuation of taxable property.

Tax Rate Limit The maximum rate or millage of tax which a local government may levy. This limit may apply to taxes raised for a particular purpose or for all purposes; to a single government, or class of governments, or to all governments operating in a particular area. See Ad Valorem Tax; Tax Rate. Tax Roll The official list showing the amount of taxes levied against each taxpayer or parcel of property, prepared and authenticated in proper form to warrant the collecting officers to proceed with the enforcement of the tax. Transfers Funds moved from one account to another or between funds. Undesignated Fund Balance That portion of a fund’s fund balance that is available for appropriation. See Designated Fund Balance and Reserved Fund Balance.
