Fiscal Year 2015 Annual Budget
City Manager’s Letter I am pleased to present to you the proposed budget for Fiscal Year 2015 which maintains the current millage rate, already one of the lowest in the County, while improving service levels. This is the second budget year supporting the 2014-2015 Strategic Plan. Although Fiscal Year 2014 was a busy and productive year, it was also a year punctuated with respites from the serious business of running the City with the City’s 50th Anniversary celebration. Staff, in conjunction with a group of dedicated volunteers, organized and promoted numerous fun-filled community events. Who can forget Campapalooza! This was our attempt to break the Guinness Book of World Records for the most kids taking part in a ZumbAtomic class at the same time. Although we didn’t quite make the record, 900 of Coral Springs finest gave it their best. Our celebrations started off with a half marathon and 5k run. Other events included the Broward Pioneer Days, an outdoor concert at Sportsplex, and a community block party on the actual date of the anniversary. We had a wonderful time at these events but, more importantly, these celebrations contributed to a feeling of pride among our residents. We did conduct a lot of business during the year too. The completion of the Royal Palm entryway and branding initiative as well as the delivery of the Economic Development Strategic Plan has announced the City is indeed open for business. The creation of a white fly remediation grant program to help restore white fly ravaged vegetation along our arterial roadways, increased number of litter removal crews, and an enhanced recycling program has signaled our intention to enhance the curb appeal of our City. Our residents are excited by the visual evidence of the downtown redevelopment, a reduction in the crime rate, and noticeable park improvements including the renovation of Sartory and Cypress Halls. These results, and more, top the list of the Fiscal Year 2014 accomplishments that will be featured in the forthcoming State of the City Report. The Fiscal Year 2015 Business Plan promises to deliver more of the same – world class service at reasonable rates. Although the lackluster, on-again-off-again, nature of the economic recovery has made it difficult to project revenues and expenditures, we are pleased to provide a number of new initiatives for your consideration and a balanced budget with no increase in the property tax rate. No Change in the Millage Rate We are recommending a balanced budget for Fiscal Year 2015 using a millage rate of $4.5697. While this millage rate is the same millage rate as the Fiscal Year 2014 millage rate, by Florida law it must be advertised as a 5.2% tax increase because it is higher than the Rolled-Back Rate (RBR) of $4.3439. As you are aware, the Rolled-Back Rate is the millage rate which will provide the same amount of property tax revenue in the new fiscal year as it received in the previous fiscal year. Reducing the current millage rate to the RBR would have resulted in $1.6 million less revenue than the current rate. Maintaining the existing rate enables us to continue to meet our residents’ most important needs and to add 26 new initiatives, included in the Business Plan. In addition to no change in the millage rate, other points from the Fiscal Year 2015 budget that are worth highlighting include: • Fiscal Year 2015 marks the third year in a row that Total Taxable Assessed Values have increased following five years of decline. • There will be no increase in the single-family Fire Assessment Fee. • Per contract, the residential Solid Waste Assessment will increase by the rate of inflation, 2.2%, from $220.92 in Fiscal Year 2014 to $225.84, or $4.92 per household. • The Debt Service Millage rate will increase by just $0.0005 or 0.2%. This represents an increase of $1.78 for the typical singlefamily homeowner. • There will be no increase in user fees such as building permits, fire inspections, or park fees.

Overall we expect the typical single-family homesteaded homeowner to pay $22.10 more to the City in Fiscal Year 2015 than in Fiscal Year 2014. Furthermore, the typical non-homesteaded condominium owner will pay $44.49 more in Fiscal Year 2015. We will end Fiscal Year 2014 within budget across all funds. We are on track to meet or exceed 25 of our 26 Key Intended Outcomes which measure the overall success in meeting our customers’ needs and expectations. In fact, customer satisfaction is a cornerstone of our Business Model. It is worth mentioning the City of Coral Springs continues to set the standard with regard to the overall quality of City services and customer satisfaction. Our most recent residential survey conducted in the spring of 2013, for example, found that 95% of the residents surveyed were satisfied with the service provided by City employees. Moreover, 94% of the businesses surveyed in the 2014 business survey rated the City’s customer service as “very good” or “good.” These, and other, survey results will be explored in-depth in the upcoming Environmental Scan. Strategically Poised for Success The strength of our Strategic Planning Process is its long-term approach to planning and financial management, with special emphasis on anticipating emerging issues, using forecasting tools to quantify their impacts, and then implementing sound practices to mitigate or take advantage of these opportunities. Just as we leaned on these methods to exit the great recession on sound financial footing, we will rely on our Core Values and solid principles of financial management to guide our journey toward continued long-term financial sustainability. Leaning on our Business Model informed by our Environmental Scan, the City developed a long-term financial strategy that articulated two primary goals. First, the City eliminated the use of reserves to support operating expenditures while maintaining the quality of service our residents have come to expect and minimizing the financial impact on our residents. While the use of reserves was an appropriate strategy during the depths of the recession, returning to structural balance is an important financial principal. In fact, the City ended the practice of using reserves to close the gap between revenues and expenditures in FY 2013. Our goal now is to slowly build those reserves to pre-recession levels. The second goal of the financial strategy is to proactively prime the engine of economic growth by implementing the Economic Development Strategic Plan. This plan is comprehensive in scope. It includes activities to support the redevelopment of the City’s commercial areas such as the Corporate Park, University Drive and Sample Road corridors, and Downtown Coral Springs. Growing and further diversifying the economic base will provide a more solid foundation that will foster development that enables the City to withstand future economic downturns. Key Initiatives for the Coming Year While the Business Plan includes economic data as well as the City’s budget process and methodology, most importantly it includes staff’s proposals for initiatives geared toward addressing our residents’ needs and enhancing our community’s look, feel, and overall appeal. These initiatives will serve as the guiding force behind the City’s Fiscal Year 2015 activities. The Business Plan and Annual Budget are our “community contracts” for the coming fiscal year and we consider these documents a means to an ongoing dialogue with our residents. Highlights of the 26 new initiatives, as well as 22 ongoing initiatives, contained within the Business Plan section of the proposed budget include: • Encouraging business development and redevelopment by implementing recommendations from the Economic Development Strategic Plan is a prominent feature of this Business Plan. We will continue to work closely with the Community Redevelopment Agency, Chamber of Commerce, and the business community to diversify the tax base and absorb vacant commercial space. In addition, the City will work to attract businesses and increase property values by investing in the curb appeal, safety, and educational resources of our community. • Construction of the “Art Walk” along NW 31st Court began in August 2014 and will continue throughout Fiscal Year 2015. The Art Walk is an urban linear plaza that will provide public space for events and will create a sense of place for our residents, business owners, and visitors. • In Fiscal Year 2013, we began the process of developing a municipal complex in the downtown area to act as a catalyst for economic development. Significant steps were taken in Fiscal Year 2014 and in Fiscal Year 2015 we will continue moving this project forward. • Maintaining a safe community will remain a top priority. Not only will the highly successful “Make a Call, Make a Difference” and the Burglary Enforcement and Reduction (BEAR) programs continue, the City will add three new Law Enforcement Officers to bring the Patrol Unit to full strength.

Fiscal Year 2015 Annual Budget
• Continue efforts by the Police and Fire Departments to replace the existing analog-based public safety emergency dispatch equipment with state of the art technology. • The Fire Department will pilot an innovative public health treatment and prevention campaign known as mobile integrated health care, an expansion of the existing Community Paramedicine program. • Continuing to support educational excellence by fostering our alliance with Broward College and ensuring the Charter School remains highly rated. The Coral Springs Charter School has received an ‘A’ rating for ten consecutive years. • Make needed repairs and upgrades to our Parks and Recreation facilities including the Mullins Gymnasium, the Tennis Center, and the Aquatic Complex. • Continue the very successful 5K/half marathon. • Celebrate the twenty-fifth anniversary of the City’s Martin Luther King Jr. observance. • Work toward achieving the goal of recycling 75% of the waste stream by 2020 by offering recycling incentives and exploring methods of encouraging recycling within the multi-family and commercial sectors. • Continue to invest in our vital information technology infrastructure. • Improve the communication with our customers by gathering in-depth knowledge on the methods they most prefer to receive information from the City. • Implementing and upgrading Wi-Fi infrastructure at City facilities and parks. Our Employees Are the Reason for Our Success We have the best employee productivity ratios in the area and extremely high customer satisfaction rates. Once again, we are asking our employees to make the initiatives included in this year’s Business Plan a reality, often under difficult conditions/ circumstances. In fact, the initiatives funded in this proposed budget are over and above the work our employees do on a daily basis. We are deeply grateful for their commitment to public service, this community, and first rate customer service. We remain committed to excellence: providing excellent police and fire services; keeping our parks in first-rate condition; providing sound financial management; providing well-maintained streets and transportation; providing outstanding business opportunities and support; and providing superior service to our customers. We also remain committed to maintaining the training and equipment necessary to provide that level of service as well as to respond to emergencies within our boundaries. We know our residents have the right to take these things for granted. Please be assured that we never do! Our employees proudly serve the citizens of our wonderful City and remain committed to creating the premier community in which to live, work, and raise a family.

Budget Highlights
Tax rate Fiscal Year 2015
Introduction The Fiscal Year 2015 Annual Budget, which is being presented to the City Commission on September 12, 2014, is a numerical reflection of the Fiscal Year 2015 Business Plan. By allocating our resources in alignment with the City Commission’s five strategic priorities and departmental performance indicators, we believe this budget will successfully meet the challenges we have before us and set the stage for continued success in the future.
Budget in Brief The proposed operating net budget for Fiscal Year 2015 for all funds totals $161,821,110. This represents an increase of $5,285,073 or 3.3% more than the Fiscal Year 2014 net budget. The Fiscal Year 2015 budget is balanced, prudent and responsive to community needs as identified in the Fiscal Years 2014 - 2015 Strategic Plan. Some features of the Fiscal Year 2015 budget that deserve special attention are: • No change to the proposed operating millage rate of $4.5697. By retaining the current millage rate, the City will collect approximately $1.6 million additional property tax revenue than Fiscal Year 2014 budget. The average single-family homesteaded homeowner will pay an additional $15.40 in property taxes due to an increase in home values. • The voter-approved debt service millage rate will increase from $0.2033 to $0.2038, an increase of $0.0005 or 0.2%. • The combined general operating and debt service millage rate is $4.7735 per $1,000 of assessed value, an increase of $0.0005 or 0.01%. • The Fire Assessment fee for SingleFamily homes will remain at $141.36. • Water and Sewer rates will increase by 3.5%. An increase of $2 per month for the majority of residential customers. • The Solid Waste Special Assessment will be $225.84 for Single-Family homes. An increase of $4.92 or 2.2% from the previous year.

Note: Revenues (sources) and Expenses (uses) for Equipment Services, Health, and General Insurance funds are incorporated within all other appropriated funds included in this summary and thus, not listed separately.
Note: In accordance with standard budgeting practice, the main difference between the “Summary of Net Budgeted Revenues/Expenditures” on pages 18 and 19 and the “Fiscal Year 2015 Combined Budget Summary” on this page is that the latter does not include internal service funds to avoid double-counting interfund transfers (movement of money from one fund to another).

Fiscal Year 2015 Annual Budget
Management and Budget Office We are pleased to present this nationally recognized planning and budgeting document as one of the many services we provide to the City of Coral Springs. The Management and Budget Office (MBO) is a division of the City Manager’s Office and is responsible for managing and implementing several cross-functional processes within the City, including: Strategic Plan Business Plan Performance Measurement System Annual Budget Capital Improvement Program Performance Improvement Projects Grants Business SWAT Team Projects Program Analysis Financial Analysis Performance Benchmarking Operational Auditing Technical Assistance for Departments Our budgeting system meets all of the best practice recommendations of the National Advisory Council on State and Local Budgeting, as well as previous recommendations by the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA). We have had the good fortune to receive the Government Finance Officers Association Distinguished Budget Presentation Award for twenty-three consecutive years. In past years, our Annual Budget has received “Special Performance Measures Recognition” from GFOA as well as “Outstanding as a Policy Document and Operations Guide.” In addition, our performance measurement and budgeting system has been cited as a “Best Practice” by the National Partnership for Reinventing Government. The Fitch Rating Agency uses our planning
system as a model for cities interested in achieving the distinction of an ‘AAA’ bond rating. Our Performance Measurement system was selected as a “Best Practice” by the American Quality and Productivity Center. We also received the International City/County Managers Association Center for Performance Measurement Certificate of Excellence. Our strategic planning, performance measurement, and budgeting efforts also contributed to the receipt of the 2007 Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award. We are the first state or local government to receive the Baldrige Award. In addition, we also received the Florida Governor’s Sterling Award for Organizational Performance Excellence in 1997 and again in 2003. We are the first organization to win the Governor’s Sterling Award for the second time.

Water and Sewer Fund Description The Water and Sewer Fund, as an enterprise fund, must be selfsupporting through user fees charged for services. The purpose of the Water and Sewer Fund is to provide clean water and to safely dispose of wastewater for customers living in the Coral Springs water district; which is the area between Wiles Road and Royal Palm Boulevard. The Fiscal Year 2015 Water and Sewer Fund budget totals $22,648,735. This amount represents an increase of $1,023,952 or 4.7% from Fiscal Year 2014. This rise is primarily due to additional CIP funding resulting in a $1,469,750 increase in the transfer to the Renewal and Replacement Fund and added debt service of $175,028. In addition, departmental costs increased $350,588 as did other non-operating costs, by $130,125, but were offset by lower wastewater treatment costs of $1,101,539, reflecting a decrease in Broward County wastewater treatment charges.

Equipment Services Fund Description The Equipment Services Fund is an internal service fund used to account for the purchase, operation, and maintenance costs of the City’s vehicles and other major equipment; such as mowers and emergency generators. The City’s fleet inventory includes emergency vehicles (patrol units, rescues, fire trucks), buses for recreation, trucks for Building, Code Compliance, and fire inspections, as well as vehicles for maintenance of streets and parks, and generators. In addition, other small equipment such as workmans, mowers, ballpros, tillers, paint machines, pressure cleaners, trailers, etc. are essential to maintain tennis and basketball courts, city buildings and sport fields in optimal condition. The Fiscal Year 2015 Equipment Services Fund proposed budget totals $11,062,733. This represents an increase of $1,612,761 or 17.1% from Fiscal Year 2014. As a self-sustaining fund, the Equipment Services Fund provides maintenance services to all applicable departments in the City on a cost reimbursement basis. Cost recovery is performed for depreciation, also known as chargeback, fuel, maintenance, and operating expenses. These expenses are budgeted and paid for by the Equipment Services Fund; therefore, monthly interfund transfers are processed to reimburse this fund. For example, depreciation or chargeback, is an operating expense to gradually pay for the use of all equipment assigned to each department. The amount of annual chargeback is calculated for each piece of equipment using a simple formula that takes the cost of the item divided by the expected life (i.e., straight-line depreciation). The result is the amount to allocate to the user department annually for the number of years the item will be in service (refer to interfund transfers for allocation by fund). Budgeting depreciation for capital assets allows the City to “pay-as-you-go” finance its vehicles, therefore avoiding debt. As illustrated on the “Ten-year fleet replacement cost” table, the average annual vehicle replacement cost for Fiscal Year 2015 through Fiscal Year 2025 is estimated to be $4.4 million.

Capital Improvement Program The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is an economical and responsible financial plan to ensure quality public services today and in the future. The CIP is a separate budgeting process within the annual operating budget. Collectively, the CIP and the Five-Year Forecast serve as a road map to intelligently plan for the City’s future.
Capital expenditure FY2015-2020 ($160,233,403)
The capital expenditure for Fiscal Year 2015 is programmed at $41,836,054. This total breaks down as follows: General Fund Water and Sewer Fund Fire Fund Equipment Service Fund Public Art Fund Solid Waste Fund Charter School Fund
$21,735,626 $9,457,000 $5,478,528 $5,008,900 $90,000 $36,000 $30,000
The CIP procedure is used to plan, budget, and finance the purchase and/or construction of large capital infrastructure, facilities, equipment, and other fixed assets. The City uses this process to ensure these expensive, long-lived projects are aligned with its strategic direction and that the money is prudently spent. The capital item to be undertaken or purchased, the year in which it will be started, the anticipated capital outlay each year, the estimated impact on the operating budget, and the method of financing the project are all listed in the CIP summaries that follow this description. The six-year Capital Improvement Program includes Fiscal Year 2015 budget and expenditure projections for the next five years. The total capital plan for Fiscal Years 2015 through 2020 is $160,233,403.
Capital expenditure FY2015 ($41,836,054)
CIP Selection Process The Capital Improvement Program provides detailed information for all CIP projects with capital outlays greater than $5,000 that the City plans to construct, improve, or purchase during Fiscal Years 2015 through 2020. Each department submitting a capital acquisition request completes a Project Description Form. The request includes the following information: project title, department/division, linkage to strategic priority or initiatives, expected life of equipment (when applicable), additional operating cost, additional revenue or income, contingencies, project description, update, alternatives, impact on other departments, and a justification. The CIP is updated annually to make adjustments for changing capital needs, changes in availability and cost of funds, and to add a year of programming to replace the year just completed. The CIP process begins in early January with an evaluation of the Capital budgeting process to determine if there are any changes that will make the process more user-friendly, efficient, or effective. Next, departments conduct a fixed assets inventory including an inventory of vehicles, computers, and printers. One of the key improvements to the process has been to link the Capital Improvement Program to the Strategic Plan. In the spring, capital requirements flowing from the adopted Strategic Plan and Business Plan are identified. Each project recommended for inclusion in the Fiscal Year 2015 capital budget is linked to the Strategic Plan as it relates to the City Commission’s five priorities. The CIP also takes into consideration department needs, the Comprehensive Plan Capital Improvement element, and the Water and Wastewater Master Plan.

The following policy guidelines are used to define a capital expenditure and steer the management of the process: • A capital expenditure is defined as a major construction, expansion, purchase, or major repair/replacement of buildings, utility systems, streets, or other physical structures or property which has an estimated total cost of $5,000 or more and generally has an expected life of at least five years.
$5,201,498 $2,143,592 $1,366,552 $1,021,713 $404,627 $497,717 $610,431 ($446,337) $24,663 $1,504,262 $2,694,538
New equipment can be added through a new initiative if it can be shown to support the Strategic Plan. The table on the left shows the estimated replacement cost of the City’s fleet inventory for the next ten years with corresponding annual contributions required from department users of vehicles, in order to make “pay-as-yougo” fleet purchases. This annual contribution eliminates borrowing money to finance a vehicle’s replacement. In Fiscal Year 2015, the City will invest nearly $4.7M to replace vehicles and equipment that otherwise would be more costly to maintain.
Computer replacement: The Computer Replacement Program is used to purchase and maintain computer hardware (including scanners, laptops, and desktops) and software. This is also a self-sufficient, internal service fund. Existing computer technologies are replaced on a standardized replacement schedule that considers legacy as well as usage. The table below shows the annual investment cost to replace the existing inventory of computers.
• Capital items under $5,000 are generally included in the various Fiscal Year 2015 funds’ operating budgets.
Capital Projects Funding
• Capital improvements are programmed and scheduled based on the City’s projected financial ability to purchase and maintain the capital project. All projects are prioritized and ranked based on criteria including the strength of the linkage between the capital expenditure and the City’s strategic priorities.
General Fund, Fire Fund, and Water and Sewer Fund operating revenues—these appropriated revenues will generally be used to purchase modest, routine operating capital items.
• General Fund debt service expenditures will not exceed 12.5% of the total annual General Fund budget. • Voter-approved general obligation debt will not exceed 5.0% of the City’s total taxable assessed valuation. CIP Project Categories: Capital projects are divided into one of three primary categories: Capital improvement projects: The purchase, replacement, maintenance, and repair of infrastructure and fixed assets is budgeted and accomplished through the Capital Improvement Program. Fleet replacement: The entire inventory of vehicles and equipment is evaluated annually in order to prioritize replacement and repairs needed in the upcoming year, based on age, condition, maintenance cost, and expected life of each equipment. The Equipment Services Fund provides for the purchase, replacement, and maintenance of the City’s fleet and other large equipment (such as generators or tillers). This is an internal service fund in which departments are charged for the usage or depreciation of the equipment.

Funding for capital projects can be obtained from any of the following sources:
Franchise revenue bonds and capital revenue bonds—this consists of debt that is secured through the pledge of City General Fund franchise revenues and other non-ad valorem revenues. Water and Sewer revenue bonds—the Water and Sewer Fund is an enterprise fund supported by fees for service rather than by taxes. Revenue bonds are repaid with revenues generated from

this fund, not by contributions from the General Fund. Revenue bonds are obtained to increase plant capacity and modernize the Utility system. General obligation bonds—this funding source requires voter approval and is used to finance major capital projects with an expected life of 15 to 30 years. Debt retirement is achieved through a special ad valorem debt millage separate from the General Fund ad valorem operating millage. Variable-rate debt bonds and loans—this funding source will be used to purchase capital items through a financial institution with a contractual obligation specifying payment terms, including principal and interest to be paid over a period of time. Equity financing—this is generally known as “pay-as-you-go” financing and involves dedicating budget surpluses that are generated in previous years to capital purchases. When the City equity finances some of its CIP, it reduces the amount of debt that needs to be issued.

Grants—this funding source refers to giving of funds for a specific purpose. Funds may be granted from federal, state, or local sources, such as Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI), Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA), Florida Department of Transportation, Florida Department of Environmental Protection, Justice Assistance Grant (JAG), Florida Department of Health, etc. Tax Incremental Financing (TIF)—this captures the future taxes of real estate improvements in a designated area to pay the present cost of these improvements. Prior to being included in the six-year Capital Improvement Program, each potential project is analyzed to determine its financial impact on operations, operating expenditures, and revenues. The total cost of each recommended project is identified as part of the capital budgeting process and associated operating expenses are included in the operating budget. In the CIP, the Project Description Form for each project identifies expected debt service costs, including interest rate and life expectancy assumptions, and operating and maintenance costs for new equipment. Fleet requests are accompanied by a Fleet Replacement Form identifying the vehicle type, quantity, replacement cost, vehicle identification numbers, model type, and specialty items necessary to put the vehicle in service. In addition, current status and condition of each vehicle is required as part of the justification submitted for review (e.g. mileage, life-to-date repair cost, etc). The CIP Review Committee—made up of the City Manager, the department requesting the capital, and staff from the Budget office—discuss all capital requests with further justification, research, and analysis during the meetings. If the need proves to be valid and the capital is part of the City’s overall strategic plan, the project is recommended for approval. The Senior Management Team reviews the entire list of proposed capital projects along with the funding sources and restraints. A final list of projects is recommended to the City Commission by this team for inclusion in the capital budget. In summary, the six-year CIP provides the necessary components of a sound Capital Improvement Program. The table to the left describes the sources of financing the capital budget in Fiscal Year 2015.

Impact of CIP on the City’s Operating Budget CIP impact on the operating budget Fiscal Year 2015
Operating Expenses Additional operating expenses include all additional costs associated with a capital project, including any non-routine expenditure (additional maintenance costs, utility cost, personnel costs, uniforms, supplies, etc.) offset by anticipated savings or new revenues generated by that project. For example, the addition of four fleet items—one truck for Transportation, a van for Communications & Marketing, one truck for Utilities, and one vehicle for Fire Inspection—will have an impact on the City’s operating budget by increasing gasoline and maintenance costs. The additional fuel and maintenance cost for this new fleet is estimated at $7,796 and the annual depreciation charges for the use of this equipment is projected at $30,411. Some capital projects will be associated with the reduction of operating expenses. For example, the University Drive LED Street Light pilot project is anticipated to result in a 48% reduction in energy. This project is projected to save over $11,000 in energy costs and over $9,000 in maintenance annually, offsetting the FY2015 project cost of $20,000. The energy efficiency of new Fire Station buildings 43 and 95 are also anticipated to result in up to 20% lower utility costs.
Operating Capital Operating capital is a funding source for capital requests, vehicles, and equipment that are relatively modest in cost, have a short life expectancy and/or are purchased annually or fairly regularly. Each fund allocates money to make appropriate purchases or capital enhancements, financed through recurring revenues. In Fiscal Year 2015, the replacement of the existing Police and Fire public safety application software will be funded via operating capital as well as a $50,000 Art Walk contingency. This OSPS Software project cost is $150,000 and will replace the OSSI software that ran on the old analog radio system.
Operating Budget $161,821,110
CIP Impact $6,455,837
Capital Improvement Budget $41,836,054
General Fund This year’s capital will impact the City’s General Operating Fund by $200,000. Fire Fund The Fire Fund’s operating capital totals $286,730. This allocation will be used for on-going improvements and upkeep of fire stations, replacement of dive rescue and tactical rescue training equipment for firefighters, purchase of thermal imaging cameras for search and rescue operations, to provide uniform members with extensive wellness screening and physical exams as well as support the on-going program to install traffic light controllers at major intersections to allow safe and quick access to emergency vehicles. Water and Sewer Fund The Water and Sewer Fund’s operating capital of $1,239,000 will be used for ongoing inspection, repair, and maintenance of water and wastewater valves ensuring all components of the sanitary system will perform as needed during times of emergencies, ongoing replacement of fire hydrants, and replacement of portable generators used during power outages at lift stations. In order to maintain adequate water supply, the City will evaluate sites to upgrade or replace those wells identified as low producers of raw water. The City will also begin the development of a hydraulic model for the entire water transmission/distribution system providing the ability to more accurately determine where upgrades to the system are required and the relocation project of City facilities in Broward County right of way along the Wiles Road widening project corridor will be funded with operating capital in Fiscal Year 2015. Equipment Services Fund In Fiscal Year 2015 the City is projecting a $4,711,900 operating capital expense in the Equipment Services Fund to replace vehicles and equipment that have exceeded their useful life (refer to Fleet Assets for more information.)

Fiscal Year 2015 Annual Budget
Debt Service Debt service refers to the amount of interest and principal the City will pay on its outstanding debt during a fiscal year. In Fiscal Year 2015, the City will continue repayment of a $4.7 million loan to finance capital improvements in the General Fund. The total principal and interest payment for this loan in Fiscal Year 2015 is $519,600. In addition, debt service totaling $275,000 (interest only) is allocated for a new $10 million capital improvement loan which will be used for the first phase of the Municipal Complex in Fiscal Year 2015. The City has secured long-term financing from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection State Revolving Fund (SRF) loan program for improvements at the Water Treatment Plant as well as throughout the entire water and sewer system. The interest rate for this financing is 60% of the market rate, resulting in low-cost financing for these improvements over a term of 20 years. Nearly $15 million in SRF financing has been obtained and many projects have been completed (i.e. replacement of existing wells, construction of new raw water supply wells, installation of wellheads and transmission lines, and improvements at lift stations). In Fiscal Year 2015, debt service totaling $1,017,671 is allocated in the Water and Sewer Fund for repayment of existing SRF loans. The City will continue repayment of a $8.7 million bank loan secured in Fiscal Year 2013 for the rehabilitation of booster stations and improvements on the water and sewer system. The interest rate for this loan is 2.29%. Principal and interest repayment for Fiscal Year 2015 is programmed at $580,376. In addition, the City will borrow $4.7 million to continue rehabilitation of booster stations and perform other necessary improvements to the water and sewer system.
Fleet Assets Replacement of vehicles and fleet equipment is funded in the Equipment Services Fund. This internal services fund provides for the operating and maintenance costs of the City’s vehicles and major equipment. Fuel, maintenance, and depreciation expenses are determined on a full-recovery basis for each fleet asset type. The allocated amount for each department in the City is budgeted taking into account the expected life of the vehicle/equipment, the type of equipment, fuel and maintenance costs, purchase price, and inflation. The City’s entire inventory of vehicles is inspected annually followed by a complete analysis of each fleet item, including mileage, life-to-date repair and maintenance cost, operational condition, and life expectancy. This evaluation helps prioritize replacements and repairs for inclusion in the upcoming budget year. As a result, some vehicles originally scheduled for replacement are found to be in good condition. Therefore, replacement is not necessary. Instead, funding is placed in the budget to perform repairs, thereby extending their useful life. This strategy has resulted in annual cost avoidance for vehicle replacement as well as savings to the General Fund, Fire Fund, and Water and Sewer Fund operating budgets by reducing the “chargeback” or annual allocation transfer to the Equipment Services Fund. Chargeback is a term used to describe the method to reimburse the Equipment Services Fund for the usage of an asset over its expected useful life (also known as funded depreciation) rather than borrowing money to buy the asset at the beginning of its useful life. Depreciation fees collected from departments are held in the Fleet Replacement Fund until the money is needed to purchase fleet items. The total chargeback allocation for Fiscal Year 2015 is $2,697,224 of which $1,979,600 impacts the General Fund, $225,485 is allocated to the Water and Sewer Fund, and $492,139 is charged to the Fire Fund. Vehicles maintenance expenses and gasoline cost are also funded by the Equipment Replacement Fund. This expense is also collected from all applicable departments via interfund transfers. The fuel and maintenance budget for Fiscal Year 2015 totals $3,193,600. This represents a 1.2% increase from Fiscal Year 2014 allocation. The impact to the City’s general operating fund is $2,569,514. The Fire Fund’s allocation for Fiscal Year 2015 is $386,849, and the Water and Sewer Fund’s portion is $237,237.

Revenue Trends As part of the Five-Year Forecast, we have made several assumptions about the future revenue growth that have a major impact on the resources that we can plan to use. The next two pages explain some of the analysis of major revenue sources.
Ad Valorem taxes $50.00 $45.00
Ad Valorem Taxes Ad valorem taxes are levied against the taxable value of real and personal property. The City sets the rate (“millage”) for this tax each year prior to October 1, and this rate is applied to each property’s taxable assessed value as determined by the Broward County Property Appraiser. This revenue can grow through increases to the millage rate and/or taxable values. The City’s millage rate has not changed but values increased for Fiscal Year 2015 by 5.35% and are expected to continue growing as a result of City initiatives.

Half-cent sales tax revenues 1/2 Cent Sales Tax The half-cent sales tax generates the largest amount of revenue for local governments among the state-shared revenue sources currently authorized. For Fiscal Year 2014, taxable sales in Florida finally exceeded the previous peak seen in Fiscal Year 2007. The State is forecasting increases to reflect the future strength in taxable sales related to tourism, motor vehicles, business purchases and household goods. Each city’s share is based on a percentage of population, so as other cities grow faster, this revenue for Coral Springs will not increase in line with the rest of the State.

State shared revenues $4.50 $4.00
Shared Revenues
Millions State shared revenues are comprised of revenues from the state sales tax and the municipal fuel tax. As of January 1, 2014, cities will no longer receive revenues from the alternative fuel user decal fee, which the State estimates as an insignificant negative impact to local government of $0.2 million annually. As the economy recovers, the City predicts this revenue source will show gradual growth.

Revenue Trends (continued) Communications services tax revenues
Communication Service Tax
$8.00
Implemented in 2001, the communications services tax is imposed on retail sales of communications services, comprised of State and local portions. Coral Springs imposes a local tax rate of 5.22%. The State is forecasting a decline in this revenue for Fiscal Year 2015 and a reduced estimate of growth after that due to negative growth rates in wireless service and a forecasted annual decline in landlines. The City is expecting no growth in this revenue as technology changes and consumer preferences shift to services not subject to tax.

The City levies a 10% utility services tax on all electric payments made within the City, through FPL (Florida Power & Light.) FPL charges are made up of a base rate and a fuel rate. The City receives no tax on fuel rate increases, only on the base rate. When fuel rates increase, there is no effect on this revenue. Because this tax is based on the consumption of electricity, the City expects moderate growth as vacant residential and commercial properties become absorbed and normal activity resumes after the recession.

The City authorizes FPL (Florida Power & Light) to provide electrical service in exchange for a franchise fee to reimburse the City for use of rights-of way and other public services. FPL bills each customer a portion of their total electric usage. As FPL rates increase and consumption of electricity grows, this revenue will increase. FPL has not had an increase to base rates since 2011 but has petitioned for an increase to build two nuclear power plants. Forecasts show a slow increase (1%) in the consumption of electricity over the coming year.

General Fund Five-Year Forecast The General Fund Five-Year Forecast is an integral part of planning the City’s future fiscal position. It is an important tool used to determine a longer-range picture of the City’s financial horizon, as well as the level of risk we face over the next few years as current revenue growth does not keep pace with the growth in operational costs. This model is the framework to peer into the near future to identify the deficits that might await us if we were to take no further action. It helps City staff to conservatively quantify our financial outlook so we can adequately plan and be prepared to meet these challenges. As we map out our financial and operating strategies, we use the model to determine the potential impact of decisions, focusing on long-term solutions rather than short-term “fixes,” which could lead to negative financial impacts in future years. This financial outlook provides an opportunity to both avoid future budget problems and maintain financial stability. The forecast integrates projections of the major drivers of the City’s annual budget, new programs, and the anticipated revenues over the forecast period. Typically, future years show a deficit of revenues over expenditures.
Our success to date has been largely dependent upon planning ahead for the financial realities we project in coming years. The General Fund’s forecast continues to project minimal revenue growth and the need to hold the line on expenditures in order to maintain adequate working capital over the five-year period. The national and state economies are improving at a steady, but slow pace. However, local governments are still experiencing slowly recovering revenues, which will make it difficult to provide both essential services to the community and improvements needed for infrastructure. On the positive side, the General Fund’s beginning working capital will allow us to forecast another year of stable, though lean, operations. As shown in the chart below, the City is presenting a balanced budget for Fiscal Year 2015.

Fiscal Year 2015 Annual Budget
Service and Operations Strategy This Business Plan covers the second year within a two-year Strategic Plan for Fiscal Years 2014 and 2015. The five priorities identified by the City Commission for this strategic planning cycle set the agenda for this Business Plan, namely: • A Family-Friendly Community • A Thriving Business Community • An Active, Healthy Community • An Attractive Community • An Innovative, High-Performing Organization While the Strategic Plan sets out the vision, the Business Plan outlines tangible plans for making the vision a reality. In each of the priority areas, department directors have developed initiatives that will direct the way the City operates in order to address our five priorities and implement the vision expressed in the Strategic Plan. A Word About Existing Services and Ongoing Initiatives In some sections, we have highlighted initiatives that were in previous Business Plans that are still being implemented in Fiscal Year 2015. Generally, if an initiative is fully operational and integrated into our service package, it will not be mentioned. The emphasis is on multiyear implementation and the evolution of existing initiatives. For more detail about the services we provide and the performance measures we use to manage those services, please reference the departmental sections of the Annual Budget.
Our New Initiatives Initiatives are developed that will assist us in achieving our Key Intended Outcomes. We include those we feel are significant contributors to supporting our strategic priorities or put additional demands on our resources. In this way, we identify the most significant actions we plan to take next year. Fiscal Year 2015 will present new opportunities. Adhering to our successful business model, we will be looking forward to continued recovery from the Great Recession. This Business Plan includes several initiatives designed to proactively prime the engine of economic growth by assisting our existing business community and deploying resources to encourage redevelopment of commercial areas such as the Downtown. In addition, since aesthetics and overall attractiveness of a community have been shown to be essential to draw new businesses and residents, a number of Business Plan initiatives will enhance the City’s appearance and overall safety. Wherever applicable, operating expenditures have been identified for the first year only. Capital expenditures also reflect only the first year of the project, and do not include capital carrying costs.

A Family-Friendly Community New Initiatives Community Paramedicine Lead Department: Fire/EMS Estimated Revenue: $231,801 (General Fund) Operating Expenses: $337,560 (68.7% General Fund/31.3% Fire) Capital Outlay: Existing Alternative emergency medical services (EMS) models are necessary because of anticipated increases in service demand as a result of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and expansion of Medicaid. EMS is considered an essential resource in achieving the “Triple Aim” of the Patient Protection Affordable Care Act (PPACA). The goals are to reduce the cost of health care delivery, improve the health of a population, and improve quality of care. The Coral Springs Fire Department is developing a Community Paramedicine program based on best practices from several agencies throughout the nation. Community Paramedicine is an innovative way to meet the demands of our customers while maintaining a high quality of service. As part of this innovative service model, the City will establish a mobile integrated health care unit using an existing ALS-equipped (advanced life support) vehicle staffed by one Coral Springs Fire Department paramedic and one registered nurse practitioner or physician’s assistant provided by the local hospital.
The rescue vehicle will be outfitted with an examination stretcher and will be stocked with ALS supplies and equipment, as well as all the supplies commonly found in the fast track area of the hospital emergency room (stitching, stapling, diagnostic equipment, soft casting, etc.). The vehicle will eventually carry mobile diagnostic equipment such as a portable radiology machine and portable scanning equipment. A state of the art communication system will allow providers to interact with medical direction via telemedicine. Services provided by the mobile integrated health care unit will include treatment of low severity medical issues, such as basic wound care, x-rays for possible fractures, pediatric fever, and flu-like symptoms. This innovative health care delivery initiative will establish the Coral Springs Fire Department as an active partner in residents’ health care management, with an expanding presence in all stages of treatment including prevention and follow up. To coordinate, implement and deliver the Community Paramedicine initiative, the Department will hire a Public Education Officer (PEO), who will also be called upon to support about 20 on-going educational programs. Some of these programs include Safety Town, Baby Safe Sleep, Choices (distracted driving prevention), Prom Scare, and child seat safety inspections. In addition, the PEO will implement new programs for senior citizens as well as raise public awareness through social media outlets. An existing part-time office assistant will be converted to full-time to support the program’s administrative needs.

Fire Stations 43 and 95
CSI Building Renovation
Lead Department: Fire/EMS
Lead Department: Police
Capital Outlay: $5.1 million
Capital Outlay: $950,000
Fire Station 43 was erected in 1988, before Hurricane Andrew. Fire Station 95 was built eighteen years ago in 1995. Both stations were constructed before the Coral Springs Fire Department became a career force, and were designed to house apparatus and gear, not full-time staff. The Department has since changed from a volunteer department (established in 1971) serving a developing suburban city to a full-time professional department in a city with a growing urban center.
The CSI (Crime Scene Investigations) Unit is a specialized civilian unit of the Coral Springs Police Department, processing crime scenes, including the documentation and collection of evidence. The evidence collected is brought back to and housed in the CSI building, where further in-depth forensic examination is conducted. The CSI Unit also provides assistance to other agencies such as neighboring police departments, Broward Sheriff’s Office, and the State Fire Marshall’s Office.
Additional missions brought on by 9/11 require the Fire Department to respond to emergencies not imagined when these stations were built. Natural disasters like the devastation wreaked on South Florida during the 2005 hurricane season, in which six named storms impacted the State, present a special challenge for ensuring our fire stations weather these storms and preserve our Department’s ability to respond. The architectural and engineering designs have been completed to rebuild Station 43 and remodel Station 95 to meet today’s challenges. The new designs ensure these stations meet the recommended safety requirements for the staff who live in the stations and accommodate male and female firefighters with adequate sleeping and working areas to perform their jobs as emergency responders.
The CSI Unit is currently housed in a small, single-story building adjacent to the main, three-story Public Safety Building. This building has not been updated since its original construction in 2001, when it was built to accommodate a staff of eight. Since then, the volume of work has necessitated adding four additional Crime Scene Investigators. As a result of the increased staffing, additional work spaces were integrated into the office area. Likewise, existing workspaces were consolidated to accommodate equipment acquired due to advancements in forensic sciences.
The City plans to obtain a General Obligation Bond to finance the construction phase of these two Fire Stations. If the Bond issue is approved by voters on the November ballot, construction is planned to begin in Fiscal Year 2015.
Additional Patrol Officers
Such advancements, like those in DNA, have dictated the creation of dedicated areas to handle, document, process, and package evidence to lessen the potential for crosscontamination. The current building cannot accommodate these dedicated areas and staff cannot work on their cases simultaneously without the risk of cross-contamination. An expansion and renovation of the current building will provide dedicated evidence handling space and office space. The expansion will also accommodate the equipment needed to keep pace with technological advancements. The City plans to obtain a General Obligation Bond to finance the construction of a second floor to the current CSI building and renovate the existing space, to be voted on by residents in November 2014.
Lead Department: Police Operating Expenses: $261,408 Capital Outlay: $12,000 In December 2011, the Police Department formed the BEAR (Burglary Enforcement and Reduction) unit to address a rising burglary rate in our city. Seven officers were reallocated from existing manpower to staff the BEAR unit. Using proactive methods, such as analyzing crime statistics to determine times and locations where burglaries are likely to occur, educating residents on crime-prevention tactics, and conducting highvisibility patrols, this unit has effectively reduced the burglary rate. However, a void was left in the Operations Division when the BEAR unit was formed. Three officers were added in Fiscal Year 2013 to lessen the impact and three more are planned to be added in Fiscal Year 2015. This will return the Police Department to staffing levels that ensure an effective and efficient response to the City’s public safety needs.

Drowning Prevention (2007-2015)
Capital Outlay: $650,000
Lead Departments: Fire/EMS, Communications and Marketing
During the school year, Safety Town hosts about 2,500 kindergarten children from public and private schools throughout Coral Springs teaching them fire safety, pedestrian and bicycle safety, how to cross the street safely, stranger danger and more. There is no charge for the school children.
Operating Expenses: Existing
Appropriations funds were received in 2014 to help offset the cost to replace the 18 year old “Safety Town” trailer with a concrete building. Replacement of the current trailer is necessary due to the wear and tear, roof issues and overall repair needed to make the trailer safe for the children who pass through on an almost daily basis. This building will be used to provide a comprehensive early childhood, hands-on safety education program designed to introduce all kinds of safety situations to children between the ages of 4 ½ and 6 ½.
University Drive LED Street Light Pilot Lead Department: Public Works
Drowning is a leading cause of death among kids and, in Florida, is the number one cause of death in children under age five. Too many families in and around Coral Springs have experienced this unimaginably horrible family tragedy. In a majority of the drowning deaths, the child has been seen five minutes or less before being missed and subsequently found in the pool. The City makes it a priority to heighten community awareness and focus on prevention efforts. The Coral Springs Fire Department, together with various local partners, administers a program called “Watch Your Kid, You’ll Be Glad You Did”. This effort coordinates with community groups to present educational sessions that raise community awareness and provide pool safety instruction. Multiple media approaches are employed to reach as many people as possible, including numerous public service announcements. The City will continue this effort, and will look for new and improved program enhancements for Fiscal Year 2015.
Capital Outlay: $20,000 Falling prices are spurring a global transition from older lamp technologies to the much-touted improved safety and efficiency of LED street lights. FDOT has initiated numerous pilot programs around the State, catching the attention of local communities. LED lighting provides a true, color-rendering, white light, compared to the yellowish glow of today’s high pressure sodium lamps. Proponents claim this white light improves vision for motorists and pedestrians, allowing for faster, easier recognition of movement along roadways, providing more reaction time. The white light may also promote a more lively, friendly atmosphere, making architecture appear more authentic. Some studies show LED lighting contributes to an enhanced feeling of safety, allowing people to recognize faces and colors more easily. LED lights have been shown to reduce energy consumption up to 50% and last longer, resulting in energy and maintenance savings. In order to verify the presumptive benefits of LED street lights, the City will retrofit 11 existing light fixtures on a section of University Drive, between 28th Street and 31st Street. After installation, message boards will be posted along University Drive to encourage public feedback and comment. An evaluation will be made to determine if the benefits of LED truly exist without jeopardizing mandated lighting standards.

Public Safety Dispatch Equipment Upgrade (2013-2015) Lead Department: Police Capital Outlay: $5.5M This project’s goal is to replace the existing analog communication equipment with an improved technology system. The current communication system is more than 15 years old and critical components of the system are no longer supported by the manufacturer. A study was conducted to analyze the existing public safety radio system and the alternative solutions for the upgrade. This project provides an opportunity not only to upgrade the technology, but also to provide interoperability with other agencies, a necessary factor in coordinating large-scale emergency response. The City plans to obtain a General Obligation Bond to finance the acquisition of the new dispatch equipment, to be voted on by residents in November 2014.

The City has an ongoing program to bring technology up to date for emergency responders who rely on state of the art software to deliver concise and reliable information when fighting crime in the community, conducting forensic analysis and investigations. The City is in the process of migrating to a new enterprise software system because the system in place since the early 1990’s, SunGard’s H.T.E. AS/400 software, is no longer being developed and supported. Implementation of a replacement is occuring in phases.
The purpose of the Teen Political Forum is to have city and county elected officials enlighten students with their personal experiences in public office and address teen issues of interest, concluding with a Q & A from the student audience. This is a great educational opportunity for students to talk directly to their elected officials and feel that their voices are heard on topics that are significant to them. A Steering Committee, made up of select high school students, plans and implements the program, under the supervision of City staff, which further develops their leadership skills.
Currently the software being considered for the Police Department is OneSolution Public Safety (OSPS), which provides a Windows look and feel that is more user-friendly and runs on a less expensive hardware system. The contract negotiations for OSPS begin in August 2014 and are expected to be complete by the end of 2014. Information Services has determined that the processing capacity for OSPS currently exists in the City. The Police Department is scheduled to begin the upgrade in 2015 with full deployment expected by 2016.
Multi-cultural Events (1995-2015)
The event is open to all high school students who live in Coral Springs or who attend local high schools: Coral Springs High, Marjory Stoneman Douglas High, Coral Glades High, Coral Springs Charter, J. P. Taravella High and Coral Springs Christian Academy. Service hours are offered for attending the Forum. Students who are home-schooled or attend private schools and live in Coral Springs are also welcome. The 2014 event was attended by approximately 950 students. The City plans to host this successful event again in Fiscal Year 2015.
Lead Department: Human Resources Operating Expenses: Existing Each year, the City promotes a number of events and programs to strengthen the ethnic, religious and cultural bond within the community. By focusing on diversity and respect, we become stronger as an inclusive community and add value to our lives through understanding, acceptance and appreciation of others. These events and programs are designed to appeal to every segment of the population from students, teachers to families and businesses. In Fiscal Year 2015, the following events and programs will be held. • 25th Anniversary of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Celebration • Worldfest • National Day of Prayer • CommuniTea • Celebration of International Day of Peace • International Dinner Dance In addition, diversity/leadership programs will be conducted in elementary, middle and high schools to raise awareness and respect for different cultures, religions and disabilities, with special emphasis on anti-bullying.

40-Year-Old Building Inspections Lead Department: Development Services Operating Expenses: Existing In January 2006, Broward County adopted a 40-Year-Old Building Safety Inspection Program, the goal of which is to minimize the public’s exposure to safety hazards caused by aging, dilapidated structures. This County program requires structural and electrical safety inspections to be conducted on large (3,500 square feet or larger) commercial and multi-family buildings that are 40 years old or more. Exempted from this program are single-family residences and duplexes, federal and state buildings, Broward County schools, and buildings under 3,500 square feet. The City Building Official receives a list of the buildings meeting this program’s criteria every year from Broward County and a Notice of Inspection letter is sent to each applicable property owner. The property owner has 90 days to submit structural and electrical safety inspection reports from an architect or engineer to the Building Division for review, incurring a $300.00 review fee. No additional staffing or expenses are expected in order to fully meet the requirements of this program. This initiative is being highlighted this year because as the City ages, the number of buildings subject to this Broward County requirement is increasing. In Fiscal Year 2013, 43 properties fell under the requirements of this program. In Fiscal Year 2014 an estimated 55 properties reached their 40 year anniversary, and in Fiscal Year 2015 another 44 buildings are expected to be subject to the County’s safety requirements.
Lead Department: City Manager’s Office Operating Expenses: $250,000 As a result of a previous initiative, a consulting firm developed an Economic Development Strategic Plan to work toward future economic prosperity for the City. A key component of this Plan is to establish an Economic Development Office within the City’s organizational structure, instead of outsourcing these efforts to the Economic Development Foundation. To ensure cross-departmental cooperation, proactive initiatives, and accountable management, the City will hire an Economic Development Manager, along with an administrative assistant. As part of the City Manager’s Office, this position will be charged with implementing the recommendations of the Economic Development Strategic Plan. Having this resource in-house will allow for better accountability, fiscal controls, and operational efficiencies.
Center for the Arts Improvements Lead Department: Public Works Capital Outlay: $340,000 As part of a four-year improvement plan, the City will begin necessary repairs and upgrades at the Coral Springs Center for the Arts. The Center provides the cultural lifeblood of the community, with approximately 200,000 people visiting the facility each year for the finest in music, dance, comedy and more. Improvements are needed in order to keep up with the demands of the variety of offerings. For Fiscal Year 2015, the City will replace the wheelchair lift between the second and third levels, replace the electrical panel and hydraulic stage lift, and expects to replace six air conditioning units.

Imposition of a local business tax provides revenue to support City services provided to those businesses. It also allows the City to be aware of the types and numbers of businesses operating in the City, which helps in planning for economic development and other needed services for the future. Chapter 10 of the Land Development Code, Section 1011(b), states that any business that operates without first obtaining a local business tax receipt is subject to a penalty of twenty-five percent (25%) of the business tax receipt amount for that year. It also states that a business that does not pay the required business tax within 150 days of the initial notice of tax due is subject to a penalty of $250 and additional administrative costs. These penalties mirror those found in Florida Statutes Chapter 205, Section 205.053.
In 1990, the Fire Inspection Division of the Coral Springs Fire Department employed four full-time inspectors to complete approximately 2,800 annual fire inspections, for an average of 700 inspections per inspector each year. Today, there are approximately 6,500 annual fire inspections to complete with only five fire inspectors to complete them, for an average of 1,300 inspections per inspector each year. In 2013, the Division did not complete all inspections, falling short by well over 1,000. Broward County fire code requires that all businesses are inspected by a certified fire inspector “no less than annually”. Over the years, the time it takes to inspect any given property has increased for a variety of reasons. There have been an increased number of violations due to aging buildings. Disengaged and economically-impacted business owners have been reluctant to voluntarily maintain their businesses and repair cited items in a timely manner. This causes multiple re-inspections, and required attendance at special magistrate hearings if the owners are non-compliant. Increased training requirements to meet new ISO goals have resulted in the fire inspectors spending less time in the field. To ensure that 100% of annual fire inspections are completed in a calendar year, a new fire inspector will be added to existing staff. This will provide a safer environment for our citizens and fire personnel. Completing fire inspections on schedule ensures: • Violations are cited sooner. • Violations are corrected in a timely manner. • Inspectors have time to be properly trained in plan review. • Inspectors are able to complete continuing education for required recertification hours. Interaction between fire inspectors and customers will be greatly improved with a regular inspection schedule of their business, allowing more time to fully explain violations. By educating the customer, we can promote proactive fire safety behavior, not just reactive.
Because these penalties add up quickly, the City will offer an amnesty program. The City previously offered an amnesty program in Fiscal Year 2010 and again in Fiscal Year 2011, which allowed first-time applicants to avoid the late fees and penalties. Only a small portion of the eligible businesses took advantage of the program. To increase participation levels, staff will reference businesses which have paid their County business tax, professions which are registered with the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, and other resources to determine which businesses are eligible for the amnesty program. The City Commission will consider an ordinance and resolution to activate this amnesty program, which should be effective October 1, 2014. The amnesty period is expected to be one year, providing ample time to research eligible businesses, notify them of the program, and process their applications. Waiving these late fees and penalties for a limited time for businesses applying for a business tax receipt for the first time will ease the financial burden of late fees and penalties and allow the business to operate within the legal parameters set by the City.
Realtors’ Summit Lead Department: Economic Development Office Operating Expenses: Existing In order to promote the City and foster economic growth, an outreach program will be developed to ensure the real estate community has all the information it needs to adequately market the City of Coral Springs. The newly formed Economic Development Office will be tasked with building an alliance with commercial brokers to share the City’s Economic Development Strategic Plan and solicit input on how best to obtain the objectives.

Ongoing Initiatives
To date, a great deal of progress has been made. Approximately 5.9 acres have been assembled to accommodate the Municipal Complex and associated uses on the south side of Sample Road. Existing buildings (City Hall South and bank drive-thru) have been demolished.
Municipal Complex (2007-2015) Lead Department: City Manager’s Office Operating Expenses: Existing The existing City Hall (North) was built in 1967. Because it was originally built as a real estate sales center, it was not designed to serve as a municipal complex. The City moved its operation to the site in 1976, intending to use it as a temporary location. The facility is outdated and functionally obsolete. Among its many deficiencies include a lack of energy efficiency, failure to meet many modern ADA accessibility standards, significant security and life safety limitations, not hurricane-resistant, and lack of sufficient parking and public meeting space. In short, the current structure does not meet the needs of the community. For example, the City Commission Chambers can only accommodate 37 visitors which is wholly inadequate for a city with nearly 125,000 residents. A 2007 study concluded that to accommodate the City’s operational needs for the next 25 years as well as to consolidate its operation into a single site, a structure of at least 65,000 square feet would be needed, roughly double the size of the current City Hall North structure. In addition, 250 parking spaces would be required.
In Fiscal Year 2014, the City took steps necessary to move this project forward. For example, an architect was selected to design the architectural and engineering aspects of the Complex, the City hired an in-house construction project manager to shepherd the project, a comprehensive space plan was developed, and financing options have been explored. The architect, Song & Associates, presented the Commission with their conceptual design for the Complex. The Commission approved the concept and recommended that Song & Associates be retained to complete the design and engineering. In Fiscal Year 2015, the conceptual design will progress into a schematic design, then into a design development phase, and finally, the design will be completed with construction documents. All necessary permits will be obtained, a contractor will be hired, and construction is scheduled to start by September 2015.

Traffic Management (2010-2015) Lead Department: Development Services Operating Expenses: Existing The Transportation Improvement Plan for Fiscal Year 2015 shows the efforts planned or underway to ensure that acceptable levels of service and safe driving conditions are maintained in the City. The Traffic Management Team meets monthly to address issues pertaining to the safe and efficient use of the roadway network. Projects include traffic calming, road widening, road resurfacing, turn lanes at intersections, as well as pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure improvements. In 2013, a new sidewalk on NW 38th Drive between University Drive and NW 85th Avenue was constructed. In Fiscal Year 2014 a new sidewalk is being built along NW 85th Avenue, NW 38th Street, and NW 84th Avenue between NW 38th Drive and NW 40th Street. Construction of the Downtown Pathway will begin in Fiscal Year 2014 and will be completed in Fiscal Year 2015 with the use of a Federal Transportation Enhancement grant. The City will work with the County on signal improvements to enhance mobility and connectivity at several of the City’s major intersections. This initiative will be funded and implemented by the County Public Works and Transportation Department. Broward County is planning several improvements including updated traffic signal synchronization and the installation of new mast arms with pedestrian countdown signals (see Short Range and Long Range Maps).
City staff will work with MPO (Metropolitan Planning Organization) staff to implement projects that improve regional connectivity, including the initiative to extend the Sawgrass Expressway east to I-95, and to ensure that federal funds for the Gateway Mobility Hub, located at Sample Road and University Drive, become available in 2016. City staff will work with the NW City Planners Consortium to secure funding through the MPO and Broward County to perform a “Congestion Management/ Livability Planning” effort along Sample Road as a precursor to developing premium transit service along that corridor. City staff will continue to monitor development within the Downtown LAC (Local Activity Center) to determine traffic impacts of new development and will monitor the proposed development within the “Wedge Area” of Parkland. Temporary speed humps within Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) areas have all been converted to permanent structures. In Fiscal Year 2015, $18,430 is budgeted to purchase replacement speed cushion parts, signage, and pavement markings to make the speed humps more visible. In Fiscal Year 2016, projected maintenance costs remain at $18,430, which includes the purchase of three additional replacement speed cushions. Replacement of speed cushions will be coordinated with the City’s roadway resurfacing program so replacement will occur after resurfacing. City staff will continue to respond to citizen requests for traffic calming by performing traffic studies to determine whether thresholds of speed and volume meet the criteria of the traffic calming program.

Downtown Redevelopment (2013-2015) Lead Department: City Manager’s Office Partner: Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) Capital Outlay: $3.6M (Economic Recovery Zone funding) During Fiscal Year 2013, the City began to explore alternatives for the best use of the Downtown area in terms of public gathering opportunities, future activities, and the connectivity between the public and private spaces with the ultimate goal of creating a sustainable Downtown. As an on-going effort, the City will continue discussions of the anticipated gateway hub, amphitheater and other civic uses within the Downtown. The City and CRA have enumerated and prioritized the infrastructure improvements that will occur in the downtown area. These improvements include the installation of a turn lane on Sample Road, the redevelopment of NW 31st Court Promenade, NW 32nd Street and NW 94th Avenue streetscaping, Sample Road median landscaping improvements, and matching walkway grants. Resurfacing is planned for Fiscal Year 2015 following the construction of the turn lane. These enhancements will provide pedestrian and bicycling connections which together will create a “sense of place” the residents and commercial owners have been seeking for the past several years.
Electronic Permitting Feasibility Study (2014-2015) Lead Department: Development Services Operating Expenses: $5,000 Electronic permitting, or E-permitting, offers customers improved, simplified service while giving the Building Division the tools needed to better serve our diverse community. All permitting services are to be ultimately performed on-line under E-permitting, streamlining the process. Demand from the business and development communities is driving the need to change the City’s permitting process. Experts in these fields use on-line services in their daily lives and are requesting E-permitting. The City would also benefit from the reduced need for office and storage space. All plans are submitted and archived electronically. Plan review is more efficient because multiple reviews can be conducted simultaneously. Broward County has led the way in developing an E-permitting platform, embarking on a five phase plan to have all Building and Environmental services offered solely on-line. The City began researching E-permitting products in Fiscal Year 2014, defining resources necessary to implement the system. In Fiscal Year 2015, we will continue to research alternative products on the market and work with Broward County as they develop their E-permitting process and platform.

An Active, Healthy Community New Initiatives
Mullins Gym Roof Replacement
NW 40th Street Bike Path Renovation Lead Department: Public Works Grant Funding (CDBG): $126,000 The NW 40th Street Bike Path Renovation project will inspect, study, design, and plan modifications to existing asphalt and pedestrian walkways. Maintaining the existing asphalt bike paths is costly and will continue to increase in the future as the asphalt gets older and breaks down due to dryness and root intrusion. This project will eliminate high maintenance costs of repairing asphalt bike paths and provide safe pathways for pedestrians and bicyclists. This Initiative will replace the existing asphalt sidewalks with concrete sidewalks and will include new bike paths along NW 40th Street between Riverside Drive and NW 76th Avenue.
Lead Department: Public Works Capital Outlay: $225,000 The Mullins Gymnasium is going on 15 years old and the original roof has numerous leaks. Many patches have been done, but as soon as one leak is fixed, another one opens up. If the leaks occur over the wood floor, the damage to the floor would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to repair. It is important to replace the roof before it causes further damage. The City hosts over 45 tournaments and events each year at the Mullins Gymnasium, not to mention hundreds of classes and summer camps. Replacing the roof will ensure that the facility remains open, available and in top condition for our customers.

Tennis Center Lighting Improvements
Aquatic Complex 50 Meter Pool Design
Lead Department: Parks and Recreation
Lead Department: Parks and Recreation
Operating Expenses: $50,000
Operating Expenses: $65,000
Courts 1 and 6 at the Tennis Center were designed for tournament level play and for television coverage. The fixtures on these courts are over 20 years old and light levels are far below the original design criteria. In order to attract top-level tournaments which include night play, it is necessary to replace the light fixtures to ensure correct lighting levels. Currently this facility is unable to host top level USTA and other tournaments which have night matches. Once this project is complete, the Tennis Center will be a viable facility to enhance the City’s amateur sports efforts.
The 50 meter pool at the Aquatics Complex is aging and has numerous issues that must be addressed. A number of cracks and leaks have developed, resulting in a significant loss of water. This leakage is costing an additional $10,000-$15,000 annually. The gutters are disintegrating and hydraulic problems have developed.
New Resident Outreach Lead Department: Communications and Marketing Operating Expenses: $30,000 Approximately 7,200 new residents (homeowners and renters) move to Coral Springs each year. By not having a communication outreach program for this group, the City is missing a valuable opportunity to deliver its message and encourage residents to be more active and involved. This program will target the new residents with a package mailed to their homes. It will introduce the elected officials, share information about City amenities and services, highlight volunteer opportunities, and communicate the City’s organizational values.
68
Additionally, this pool has a depth of four feet. New minimum standards for Olympic-size pools is five feet or deeper. This 50 meter pool, the mainstay of the Aquatics Center, may no longer qualify to host the national competitive events upon which this City prides itself. In order to prevent these issues from becoming health and safety hazards, and to continue attracting national, collegiate and Olympic swimmers and events, the City will develop design and engineering plans for the repair or replacement of this pool. Once designed, construction would be expected in Fiscal Year 2016.
Fiscal Year 2015 Annual Budget
Ongoing Initiatives Playground Equipment Replacement (2012-2015) Lead Department: Parks and Recreation Capital Outlay: $86,000 This program enacts a plan to ensure that playground equipment in all City parks is replaced every 15 years. There are currently 33 playgrounds throughout the City in neighborhood and Community parks. All playground equipment and surfaces are inspected regularly by maintenance staff and a certified playground inspector to assure continued safety, as well as to meet all the updated Americans with Disabilities Act requirements for playgrounds. Because playground equipment has a life expectancy of about 15 years, the City has created a schedule that provides for replacing the equipment over that time frame. This program allows better planning of the funding of the equipment. In Fiscal Year 2015, Kiwanis and Lakeview Parks are scheduled to be upgraded.
Half-marathon and 5K Run/Walk (2013-2015) Lead Department: Parks and Recreation
Downtown Pathway (2012-2015) Lead Department: Development Services
Operating Expenses: $15,000 The City, in conjunction with In the Zone Event and Sports Management and the Coral Springs Medical Center, has made the half marathon and 5K road race an annual event. With a turnout of 1,400 participants at the inaugural event, held March 30, 2013, and another great turnout at the second hosting on March 29, 2014, the City intends to continue this popular event. The purpose is to encourage active, healthy lifestyles while providing positive exposure to the City and local businesses.
Federal Transportation Enhancement Grant: $140,000 (FY 2014); $405,000 (FY 2015) In 2011, the MPO (Metropolitan Planning Organization), awarded the City a Transportation Enhancement grant for construction of the Downtown Pathway. This project will construct a pathway along Ben Geiger Drive (NW 29th Street) and Coral Hills Drive. It will include native landscaping, pedestrian lighting, and areas for public art. Design was completed and approved by FDOT (Florida Department of Transportation) in 2014. An agreement between FDOT and the City will be entered into to enable the City to begin construction. Prior to that agreement, the City will construct a portion of the Pathway within an easement provided by the Harbor Chase Assisted Living Facility, located on Ben Geiger Drive. Demolition of the existing asphalt sidewalk will be scheduled once the FDOT agreement is finalized.

An Attractive Community New Initiatives
Humane Unit Building Design
ArtWalk at NW 31st Court Lead Department: Development Services Operating Capital: $50,000 Capital Outlay: $90,000 (Public Art Fund) The ArtWalk is a project with the CRA to transform an existing canal in the Downtown area into a linear urban plaza and make it accessible to the public. The plaza will provide an eastwest connection between the Downtown Pathway project, University Drive, and The Walk. This project will provide formal space for events, such as the Green Market and BizArt, and will include several locations for public art installations. As one of the initial steps toward the success of the Municipal Complex, the purpose of the ArtWalk is to serve as a catalyst for the redevelopment of Downtown. Design has been completed and a construction manager has been contracted. Funding has been allocated from a variety of sources, most notably the Recovery Zone Economic Development Bond. For Fiscal Year 2015, a street-scaped entryway will be created along NW 31st Court to highlight the southern boundary of the ArtWalk and concrete pads on which to install public art will be built. In subsequent years, the City will issue calls for artists to commission new art pieces and provide temporary display of artwork for years to come.
Lead Department: Police Operating Expenses: $30,000 The Humane Unit is a specialized civilian unit of the Coral Springs Police Department. The Unit consists of three members whose primary responsibility is to enforce the City ordinances, codes, and state statutes regarding animal issues. The members respond to citizen complaints regarding stray and injured animals and animal bites. They conduct all the care and feeding duties for impounded animals and supervise general maintenance of the retention facility. The Unit is housed at the Westside Complex, consisting of an office building, a portion of which is needed for cat cages, and an attached building to house dogs. The office area is a 10’x10’ room. This room holds all three members’ work stations and the space is not sufficient for this. The oldest area of the structure is the dog runs. This area consists of eight runs, which are not heated or air conditioned. Future added storage needs should be considered to store supplies such as dog food and other supplies to run the facility, such as cleaning and animal care items. Design of a new facility will take place in Fiscal Year 2015 with construction expected the following year.

Code Lien Amnesty Program
Community Beautification Award (2014-2015)
Lead Department: Development Services
Lead Department: Development Services
Estimated Revenue: $250,000
Operating Expenses: $1,000
Operating Expenses: $19,000
From 2001 to 2005, the Coral Springs Garden Club, along with the City of Coral Springs Neighborhood and Environmental Committee (NEC), sponsored the “Coral Springs Looking Good� beautification awards program. Residents and businesses were encouraged to nominate properties that make a particular effort to enhance their property through landscaping. After Hurricane Wilma in October 2005, the program was abandoned.
Chronically non-compliant properties have daily Code Compliance liens which can escalate to unreasonable amounts that far exceed the value of the property. Without an amnesty program, many property owners in this situation choose not to remedy the violations nor pay anything toward the lien amount. This perpetuates a negative impact on the noncompliant property and surrounding community. The amnesty program is expected to allow a sufficient period of time to provide notice to non-compliant properties and individuals with judgements, determine eligibility, and process applications. Waiving these late fees and penalties will only be allowed after the property owner has brought the property up to code. This amnesty program eases the financial burden of the lien while improving the overall aesthetics of the City.
Ongoing Initiatives Neighborhood Partnership Program (2014-2015) Lead Department: Development Services Grants and Other Operating Expenses: $35,000 South Florida has been hit hard over the past several years by a number of landscape pests such as Ficus Whitefly and Rugose Spiraling Whitefly. These two pests together have led to an overall decline in the aesthetic appearance of properties throughout the City. In 2014 there was no decline in whitefly activity and the mild winter gave the insect an opportunity to continue feeding and reproducing without any interruption. With no reason to believe that the whitefly problem will decrease in the near future, it has become necessary for the City to increase its efforts to provide additional grant funds. This project will continue to expand the existing Neighborhood Partnership Program (NPP) to include grants for whitefly remediation for the most severely affected properties. In an ongoing effort to improve the overall aesthetics of the City, there will be a focus on small condominium associations and rental properties along arterial roadways.
In May 2013, the NEC revitalized the program with a first round of nominations in early 2014. Seventeen properties were nominated and evaluated. Winners in each category were recognized at an awards banquet in May 2014. One new aspect of the beautification awards is that winners are given a sign to display for a limited time, advertising that they have won this award. By holding this event annually and incorporating the signs, awards, and media coverage, the intent is to encourage other residents and businesses to upgrade their properties to be eligible for future nominations and awards. This will lead to an overall improvement in the aesthetics of the City.

Aquatic Complex Entrance (2013-2015)
CDBG Action Plan (2011-2015)
Lead Department: Parks and Recreation
Lead Department: Development Services
Capital Outlay: $120,000 (Allocated in FY 2013)
FY 2015 CDBG Allocation: $626,776
During Fiscal Year 2012 the Aquatic Complex underwent renovations and expansion of several areas within the facility. As a result of these upgrades it was determined that a new entrance plaza was needed to create an aesthetically pleasing and functional area when entering this facility. The design of this entrance is underway and includes aspects to welcome and delight visitors to this nationally recognized training center. New elements will include aesthetically pleasing items such as new planters, paving, landscaping, shades and lighting.
Each year, the City is required to complete an Action Plan as a part of the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. The plan describes specific projects and activities the City will undertake in the coming year to address priority needs identified in the five year plan. These priorities include providing a suitable living environment, providing decent and affordable housing, and expanding economic opportunities. The CDBG program is funded through the Department of Housing and Urban Development. The program primarily benefits low-to-moderate income City residents and focuses on low-to-moderate income neighborhoods. Following is a list of the projects proposed in the 2014-2015 Action Plan. • NW 40th Street Bike Path Renovation: $126,000 • Home Repair: $92,655 • Commercial Façade Program: $80,000 • Design Pedestrian Lighting for Forest Hills Blvd.: $64,500 • Youth Scholarship Program: $50,000 • Senior Recreational and Functional Training: $32,016 • NW 39th Street Improvements: $29,250 • Neighborhood Partnership: $15,000 • Senior Recreation and Therapeutic Program: $12,000

• Planning and Administration: $125,355
Lead Department: Public Works Capital Outlay: $11,827 In 2012, the City of Coral Springs received a grant from the Community Foundation of Broward to capitalize on the time, talent and experience of retired or soon to retire baby boomers by engaging them in the work of community improvement and social change. The “Keep Coral Springs Beautiful” project was created to engage baby boomers in leading a group of volunteers in a litter removal program similar to Adopt A Street. The program assisted the City in meeting its goal of beautifying the community and positively impacting the environment. This project was a great success and resulted in 28 baby boomers engaged in volunteer work, 1,178 pounds of litter picked up and 121 volunteers participating. The City of Coral Springs was invited to apply for a second round of funding that was awarded in July 2014. The City proposed to enhance the current “Keep Coral Springs Beautiful” program by separating recyclable material in the litter that is collected and creating a Fundraising Team of Boomers to ensure sustainability of the program after the funding ends. The goal for the recycling component is to have a positive impact on the environment and teach valuable lessons to volunteers regarding the importance of recycling and how it affects the Earth.

Waste Transfer Station Improvements (2014-2015)
Atlantic Boulevard Entryway (2013-2015)
Lead Department: Public Works
Lead Departments: Development Services, Parks and Recreation
Capital Outlay: $36,000
Capital Outlay: $269,921 (Allocated in FY 2013)
The Waste Transfer Station, located at 126th Avenue and Wiles Road, accepts bulk trash, yard waste and source-separated recyclables during its operating hours on the weekends and designated holidays. On the first Saturday of every month, the transfer station also accepts paint, fluorescent light bulbs, and electronic equipment delivered to the station by residents. This is a free service for residents of Coral Springs.
In Fiscal Year 2014, a completely enhanced Royal Palm Boulevard entryway at the east end of the City was unveiled. This initiative will build on that effort to similarly improve Atlantic Boulevard, creating a unique sense of arrival into the City at the major entryways. The design includes planting additional large shade trees, understory landscaping, seasonal plantings, decorative lighting, roadway pavers, and updated signs. Public art was installed in 2014 and is included in the overall design. Construction will take place in two phases, with phase one expected to occur in Fiscal Year 2015.
The purpose of this project is to make the facility more user friendly, which is being driven by the introduction of household hazardous waste collection in 2014, and the construction of a new private facility on the eastern boundary of the transfer station. The station currently is in poor condition and not organized in a manner conducive to safe and effective operations. A general upgrade is needed to create designated areas for the collection of hazardous waste. Traffic circulation patterns need to be improved. Security cameras are needed to monitor illegal dumping and unauthorized access by commercial vehicles. Design of these and other improvements will take place in Fiscal Year 2015, funded by the Solid Waste Fund.

The shift from print to digital communication has had a significant impact on the way people choose to receive their information. While we include questions on communication in the biennial resident and business surveys, the data from these surveys is not sufficient to develop an effective communications strategy. The breadth of the data gathered from a targeted Communications Survey that includes responses from both businesses and residents will allow us to allocate our advertising dollars in the areas that will have the greatest impact and reach. Several other cities are conducting similar surveys, and that comparative data will be a valuable tool in measuring our success in reaching our audience.
Lead Department: City Attorney’s Office Estimated Revenue: $150,000 Operating Expenses: $115,484 The City offers non-violent first time offenders an opportunity to participate in a Misdemeanor Diversion Program. The purpose is to rehabilitate first time offenders and mitigate the potential negative consequences on a person’s livelihood from the creation of a court case. When a defendant is issued a Notice to Appear in County Court for a qualifying offense, an information sheet is given to them outlining the program. The person must contact the City Attorney’s Office within three business days from the issuance of the Notice to Appear. The City Attorney’s Office reviews the case file and makes a final determination if the offender qualifies for the program. If so, defendants must attend a rehabilitative instructional program and pay a required fee. Upon successful completion of the program, the offender’s case will be closed and will not be filed in court.

Compensation Study
Network Support Lead Department: Information Services
Lead Department: Human Resources
Operating Expenses: $169,250
Operating Expenses: $40,000
The City has recently implemented numerous technology initiatives to improve productivity, efficiency, and stability of City technology services. As these efforts were occurring, many other technology projects had to be postponed. In order to maintain the new environment while properly managing the backlog of postponed projects, Information Services needs to add two additional Network Specialists to their staff.
In order to evaluate the overall competitiveness of the City’s compensation system, a consultant will be engaged to offer expertise regarding trends in compensation practices and policies, as well as classification and compensation theory and methodologies. The current broadbanding compensation system is 20 years old.
This additional staff will provide these immediate and necessary functions: • Dedicated support that provides instant response to critical issues. • Cross-trained staff to provide more dynamic support and trouble-shooting for end users. • Project-oriented focus on PC deployments, hardware inventory, and asset management. • Increased efficiency to better meet service level agreements and key intended outcomes. • Immediate support to Police and Fire with dedicated personnel experienced in Public Safety.
Realign Volunteer Services Lead Department: Human Resources Operating Expenses: Existing Since the inception of the City’s volunteer program 20 years ago, Volunteer Services has been a part of the Police Department. This worked well when the focus was to provide opportunities for residents interested in volunteering within the Police Department.
The City will look to develop a compensation philosophy and conduct a review of existing salary ranges. The ongoing maintenance process will be reviewed to ensure sustainability of the competitiveness and equitability of the implemented salary structure.
Statistical Analysis for Fire/EMS Lead Department: Fire/EMS Operating Expenses: $30,000 Fire; $30,000 EMS The Coral Springs Fire Department does more than just fight fires. Staff is responsible for EMS, inspections, investigations, prevention, training, emergency management, and other services that are important to the community. The Fire Department is required to track and report data to several agencies, some of which include the National Fire Incident Report System (NFIRS), EMSTARS, ISO, FEMA, and ICMA. In addition, we regularly report performance data to the City of Parkland. Adding a data analyst to the staff will enhance the Fire Department’s analysis of programs, services, systems, and performance. Benefits of creating this new position include improving resource allocation, gaining insights into problems, and identifying training needs.
However, the program has grown over the years and now includes volunteer opportunities throughout all City departments. With Volunteer Services having a similar role as Human Resources, i.e. recruitment and placement of volunteers in City departments, along with retention and recognition initiatives, it makes sense that Volunteer Services would realign with Human Resources. This move will increase awareness of City-wide volunteer assignments and streamline processes as well as having a more focused approach to attracting, retaining and motivating volunteers. Our “human resources” are vital to carrying out the City’s mission, and combining the efforts of paid and volunteer resources will strengthen our ability to achieve that goal.

Ongoing Initiatives
Electronic Data Back-up and Storage (2013-2015) Lead Department: Information Services
Enterprise Software (2013-2015) Lead Department: Information Services Capital Outlay: Allocated in FY2014 In Fiscal Year 2013, the City began the planning phase to modernize the current enterprise software application (i.e., Sungard H.T.E.) or replace it with a different enterprise resource program (ERP). The goal is to streamline the financial, budgeting, human resources, building, permitting, asset management, Code Compliance, and licensing processes throughout the City. The Code Compliance and Business Tax divisions of Development Services were the first to transition in Fiscal Year 2014. OneSolution allows these divisions to more efficiently manage code compliance cases and business tax receipts and to share information easily City wide. Customers are able to access and submit code-related information online. OneSolution will also allow businesses to apply, renew, update, and pay for business tax receipts online. The Building division of Development Services will work on its transition in Fiscal Year 2015. Staff will have the ability to standardize permit pricing, automate permit invoicing and routing, enhance inspections scheduling and reports, and improve internal communication. The system will give residents and customers the ability to schedule inspections online. Also contemplated for Fiscal Year 2015 is the migration of all Finance related applications, Human Resources, and Budget. All other departments will follow after implementation of this phase.
Capital Outlay: $315,000 With the growing requirements to process data in a more efficient manner, the need for capacity continues to increase at a rapid rate. Information Services is required to provide this increased capacity on an annual basis. This project is to grow the data storage infrastructure based on increased departmental requirements. The current environment will support the City’s needs for 2014, but will not address the projected requirements for 2015 and beyond. Additionally, based on application changes and growth requirements by City departments, Information Technology will have to stay ahead of user demands. To accomplish this task, additional server hardware will be needed. This project will address that need as well as replace existing servers that are obsolete.
Stormwater Utility Fee Study (2014-2015) Lead Department: Public Works Capital Outlay: $70,000 Preliminary analysis is complete in establishing a stormwater utility fee assessment in the City of Coral Springs. At least 17 municipalities in Broward County currently have a stormwater utility fee assessment. The primary purpose of this assessment is to quantify the financial impact of stormwater runoff from each parcel within the City on the needs of the City’s stormwater management system. Parcels with high impervious ground coverage generate more stormwater runoff which must be handled by the City’s system. A numerical correlation of the impact of each parcel has been calculated. The funding from this Stormwater Utility would be used to manage and maintain the City’s existing stormwater management system and to construct improvements to address flooding issues. Results of the preliminary analysis (Phase 1 of 3) will be presented during early Fiscal Year 2015 to determine the feasibility of implementing a stormwater utility fee. If the City decides to proceed, the next two phases will include additional analysis to justify and defend the assessment calculations, and required legal documentation and procedures.

Customer Requirements Analysis Overview
Survey respondents by general location
In an effort to closely align the City’s scarce resources with the needs and expectations of our residents, we use a number of “listening devices” to gather credible and useful data. This customer input is a critical piece of the Strategic Planning process. Our business model demands that we know our customers’ needs and expectations. Through citizen and business surveys, SWOT analyses, Slice of the Springs meetings and good, old-fashioned customer contact, we gain an understanding of our customers views.
Residential Satisfaction Survey Results Overview ETC Institute administered surveys to residents in the City of Coral Springs during February and March of 2013. The purpose of the surveys was to assess satisfaction with the quality of City services and to gather input about priorities for the community. Methodology A seven-page survey was mailed to a random sample of 3,000 households in the City of Coral Springs. Approximately seven days after the surveys were mailed, residents who received the survey were contacted by phone. Those who indicated that they had not returned the survey were given the option of completing it by phone or over the Internet. A total of 1,221 completed surveys (41% response rate). The results for the random sample of 1,221 households have a precision of at least +/-2.8% at the 95% level of confidence. There were no statistically significant differences in the results of the survey based on the method of administration (phone vs. mail). In order to understand how well services are being delivered in different areas of the City, ETC Institute geocoded the home address of respondents to the survey. The map shows the physical distribution of respondents to the resident survey based on the location of their home. A minimum of 200 surveys were completed in each of the six areas shown on the map. The results for each area have a precision of at least +/- 6.9% at the 95% level of confidence. In addition to conducting GIS mapping, the City had residents rate the quality of City services on a 5-point scale in 2011 and 2013 rather than a 4-point scale, which was used in previous years. The change in scale was done for two reasons: (1) to allow the City to compare its results to state and national averages that are maintained by ETC Institute and (2) to more critically evaluate the City’s performance over time. For trending purposes, ETC Institute compared the sum of the non-negative responses from 2009, 2011 and 2013.

Trends The Composite Satisfaction Index is derived from the mean rating given for all major categories of city services that are assessed on the survey. The index is calculated by dividing the mean rating for the current year by the mean rating for the base-year (year 2009) and then multiplying the result by 100. The Composite Customer Satisfaction Index for the City of Coral Springs stayed the same from 2011 to 2013. When analyzing the long-term trend, the City improved 3 points from 100 in 2009 to 103 in 2013. The chart shows how the Composite Satisfaction Index for the City of Coral Springs, the State of Florida, and the United States have changed since 2009. While the results for the City of Coral Springs stayed the same, the Florida average declined by 1 point and the U.S. average improved by 2 points. Long-Term Trends Despite the number of decreases in non-negative ratings from 2011 to 2013, Coral Springs continues to show improvement long term. Of the 36 items rated in both 2009 and 2013, nonnegative ratings either improved or stayed the same in 30 areas. The significant increases and decreases among all of the items that were assessed from 2009 to 2013 are listed below; changes of 3% or more were considered significant.

Opportunities for Improvement
Priorities within Departments/Specific Areas
In order to help the City identify opportunities for improvement, ETC Institute conducted Importance-Satisfaction (I-S) Priorities Analysis. This analysis examined the importance that residents placed on each City service and the level of satisfaction with each service. By identifying services of high importance and low satisfaction, the analysis identified which services will have the most impact on overall satisfaction with City services over the next two years. If the City wants to improve its overall satisfaction rating, the City should prioritize improvements in services with the highest Importance Satisfaction (I-S) ratings.
The second level of analysis reviewed the importance of and satisfaction of services within departments and specific service areas. This analysis was conducted to help departmental managers set priorities for their department.
Based on the results of the Importance-Satisfaction (I-S) Priorities Analysis, ETC Institute recommends the following: Overall Priorities for the City by Major Category The first level of analysis reviewed the importance of and satisfaction with major categories of City services. This analysis was conducted to help set the overall priorities for the City. Based on the results of this analysis, the major services that are recommended as the top two opportunities for improvement over the next two years in order to raise the City’s overall satisfaction rating are listed below in descending order of the Importance-Satisfaction rating:
Based on the results of this analysis, the services that are recommended as the top priorities within each department over the next two years are listed below: • Public Safety: frequency of police patrols in neighborhoods • Parks and Recreation: none of the areas rated had an I-S rating above 0.10, so the City should sustain is current efforts. • Maintenance: adequacy of city street lighting Source: ETC Institute, City of Coral Springs 2013 Residential Survey

Business Survey Summary
Business Survey: Bottom line up front
Overview In an effort to closely align the City’s scarce resources with the needs and expectations of our residents, we use a number of “listening devices” to gather credible and useful data. This customer input is a critical piece of the Strategic Planning process. Our business model demands that we know our customers’ needs and expectations. Through citizen and business surveys, SWOT analyses, Slice of the Springs meetings and good, old-fashioned customer contact, we gain an understanding of our customers views. Purpose and Methodology During the spring of 2014, ETC Institute administered a survey to businesses in the City of Coral Springs. The purpose of the survey was to gather feedback from Coral Springs business owners and senior managers to identify ways improve the quality of City services.

Fiscal Year 2015 Annual Budget
Neighborhood Meetings The City completed its nineteenth year of the “Slice of the Springs” Town Hall meetings. The meetings were held on November 21, 2013 (Southwest and Southeast), February 20, 2014 (Center West and Town Center) and March 13, 2014 (Northside and Northeast). The number of attendees at this year’s meetings (a total of approximately 195 in the entire meeting series) was a significant increase over the last couple years (total attendance was 132 in 2012-2013 and 142 in 2011-2012). This year, the Communications and Marketing Department sent out a pre-meeting survey to an extensive email list, which included previous years’ Slice meetings attendees as well as other residents. The survey included a question on the issues affecting the community, which helped City staff cater its presentation to the residents. Since this survey seems to have helped draw more attendees, staff will incorporate a survey prior to future Slice meetings. City staff from various departments presented on a number of important topics – Downtown development, new logo/ branding, new garbage contract, new businesses opening in the City, new artwork, Code Compliance, crime statistics, and Public Works improvements. Residents expressed their appreciation to City staff for maintaining a high quality of life in the City, while also expressing their specific concerns, some of which mirror previous years’ comments. The top concerns were: • Poor street lighting in certain areas • Speeding/traffic calming • Code compliance issues • Trash/litter in certain public areas
Attendees were also asked to fill out a survey to assess the meeting and express any additional concerns. Those concerns/ complaints were subsequently entered into the City’s Help Desk system, allowing the appropriate staff to address each case, assuring a timely response to the residents’ concerns. This process also helps to identify residents’ issues as the City prepares its annual Business Plan and budget. Meeting survey results show that 100% of attendees who completed the survey found the meeting to be “productive or very productive” and would recommend the meeting to other residents. Roughly one-third were first-time attendees. The attendees averaged 20 years as City residents. The Slice meetings are taped and replayed on CityTV on Advanced Cable Communications Channel 25 (Ch. 725 in HD) and Channel 99 on AT&T U-Verse. Meetings are also streamed online through the City’s Videos on Demand at www.coralsprings.org/vod. This year the Communications and Marketing Department streamed the Town Center/Center West and Northside/Northeast meetings live. Staff will research whether an interactive component could be implemented next year. Slice meetings continue to provide an opportunity for residents to interact directly with staff members from various City departments, including Police, Fire, Community Development, Code Compliance, Building, Public Works and Parks and Recreation. A follow-up letter was sent to the attendees, providing additional information, addressing outstanding issues not answered during the meeting and reinforcing important community information. It has always been a very important aspect of “Slice of the Springs” effort to have accountability in the follow-up, and staff continues to acknowledge the importance of addressing all concerns/ complaints voiced by the residents in the meeting.

CityHelpDesk Responses The city has implemented an online HelpDesk, which collects comments, complaints, requests, and even compliments from residents and businesses. All the comments are assigned to an appropriate department, and are replied with an initial response within two business days, with a final resolution (or a timetable for a resolution) within one week. Trends in HelpDesk comments are later reported regularly to the City Manager’s Office to be used to identify areas of major concerns to our residents and businesses. This process allows us to determine areas of the City that is in need of process changes, customer service training, or realignment of resources. As of the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2014, the top five departments that received the most comments were: code compliance, trash pickup, police, permit inquiries, and park facilities. Some of the reoccurring comments/concerns were: • Code Compliance (20% of comments): landscape maintenance; trees and hedges; insects and rodents; dirty roofs; trash, litter and debris • Trash Pickup (16% of comments): initial confusion with trash pickup day as the City changed its service to WastePro, trashbins left outside, pickup running late, hazardous material pickup arrangements, trashbin size concerns • Police (9% of comments): redlight camera ticket inquiries; issues with neighbors – pets and noise; suspicious activity; speeding • Requests regarding expired building permits (9% of comments)
The overall amount of comments received through CityHelpDesk FYTD was 1,159. This is a significant increase of 62% when compared to FY2013. There are several factors that may have contributed to this upsurge of comments. In January 2014, the City switched from Waste Management to WastePro for trash pickup which generated an influx of comments. There has been a decrease in the number of comments Code Compliance receives which could be attributed to the decrease in the amount of abandoned and/or foreclosed homes in the City. Since the inception of the Make a Call, Make a Difference program police continue to receive complaints about suspicious activity, in turn, lowering the amount of burglaries that occur. Street maintenance saw an overall decrease in comments. The continuation of the Keep Coral Springs Beautiful project, funded by Community Foundation of Broward, has helped in improving the aesthetics of right of ways that had been heavily littered in the past resulting in a decrease in litter complaints. Comparison for FY2013 vs. FY2014 helpdesk responses (as of 6/30/14): • Code: 237 (significant decrease from 348) • Trash Pickup: 182 (not a category in 2013) • Police: 108 (decreased from 121) • Expired Permits: 108 (slight increase from 101) • Park Facilities: 63 (significant decrease from 101 = 62% decrease) • Street maintenance: 52 (decrease from 59)
• Park facilities (5% of comments): need for garbage and/or recycling bins; suspicious activity; issues with food or drinks not allowed in parks; lost and found; park maintenance; availability of mulch

The additional camera at the northbound approach at 441 and Wiles did NOT occur due to the video validation study showing a low number of violations at that approach.
