MONTGOMERY COUNTY, VIRGINIA

APPROVED BUDGET

for fiscal year 2020

BUDGET MESSAGE

March 4, 2019 Dear Chair King and Members of the Board of Supervisors – On behalf of the County’s budget team, I am pleased to present the proposed Fiscal Year 2019-2020 Montgomery County budget for your consideration. My recommendations offer a starting point for the Board’s discussions and deliberations. When I presented my first budget in March 2010 as your new county administrator, I did not anticipate that in March 2019 I would be reviewing with you an extensive list of capital projects that we’ve completed in the past decade. These projects include:     

     

Construction of new Eastern Montgomery and Prices Fork Elementary Schools Construction of new Auburn and Blacksburg High Schools Renovation of the former Auburn High School for reuse as Auburn Middle School Investment in the former Christiansburg Middle School for use by Blacksburg Middle School during construction of a new high school in Blacksburg Repurposing of seven former school facilities: the former Elliston-Lafayette, Shawsville, and Prices Fork Elementary School sites; the former Auburn and Blacksburg Middle School sites; the former Blacksburg High School site; and the former MCPS Central office facility Expansion of Falling Branch Elementary School Beginning renovations at Christiansburg High School by installing state of the art athletic fields Construction of a new Courthouse facility Renovation of the former Courthouse for use as a Public Safety Building Construction of a new Animal Care and Adoption Center Purchasing 100+ acres for the expansion of Falling Branch Corporate Park.

And, in March 2019, our investment in the County’s future capital needs continues, as construction of a new Riner Volunteer Fire Department and a new Regional Fire Training Center (aka Burn Building) are slated for completion later this year. The Board’s recognition of the need to invest in school and county facilities is central to making these facilities among the best in Virginia. I am, as I know you are, very proud of the work that has been accomplished while preserving the financial health of the County through adherence to our financial policies, ensuring a balanced budget and setting aside cash to fund capital needs. These accomplishments would not have been possible without the dedication and support of County staff, who have stretched their existing human and financial resources to the greatest extent possible, allowing dollars to be allocated to these important school and County capital projects.

Even with the extensive list of capital projects completed or near completion in the last decade, more work remains to be done. In a recent Board of Supervisors work session, a discussion of a host of future County capital needs resulted in the Board identifying projects the County can begin work on immediately:  the conversion of the existing Riner Volunteer Fire Department for use by the Riner Volunteer Rescue Squad; and  the replacement of the County’s inefficient and outdated garage and maintenance facilities In addition, the potential reuse of the former Sheriff’s Office building to relocate public safety/courts related functions is being explored. With master plans finalized for new recreational facilities in the Eastern Montgomery and Riner areas, starting work on a first phase of these projects is also planned for the near future. The demand to find financial resources for capital projects while managing current and future operations continues to be a challenge. Future capital projects to be undertaken span functions from public safety to education, and cover all ends of the County. The need for a new Shawsville Volunteer Rescue Squad facility is clear. While we await a strategic plan from the School Board regarding future school facilities, it is clear that the Christiansburg school strand is the next area for investment in needed facilities, with needs in the Blacksburg and Eastern Montgomery strands waiting to be addressed in the School Board’s long range plans. New and/or improved facilities for our libraries, as well as expanding our recreational amenities for our citizens will also be in the County’s future. The Board’s ongoing commitment to set aside real estate tax revenues for future school facilities and fire and rescue apparatus demonstrates a pledge to the Board’s strategic objective of “funding the future.” Continuing this practice is critical for future capital projects to meet the growing demands of the County and the public schools. Funding essential capital projects while balancing the need for additional resources for ongoing operations is always a challenge, and this year is no different. Fortunately, the County’s recent general real estate reassessment (which is conducted every four years) reflects growth in property values throughout the County, with an approximate overall increase of 8%. The reassessment, coupled with the increased real estate value gained from new construction, will generate $6.1 million in additional revenue at a tax rate of 89 cents per $100 in assessed value. Adding in the annual growth in other County revenues, approximately $7.6 million in total new local revenue is available for the General Fund. During the year of a general real estate reassessment, the County is required by state statute to advertise a “revenue neutral” real estate tax rate. For this reassessment effective January 1, 2019, $0.83 per one hundred dollars of property valuation is the “revenue neutral” rate, a reduction of 6 cents from the current $0.89 rate. However, I propose the County retain the present real estate tax rate of $0.89 for fiscal year 2020, which represents the seventh year the County has maintained an $0.89 real estate tax rate. Tax rates in all other categories also remain the same. The proposed FY 2019-2020 budget for the County totals $201.0 million, an $11.7 million or 6.2% increase from the current fiscal year. Of the total budget, $141.0 million or 70% supports public schools, while $60.0 million or 30% supports all other County functions and agencies. Proposed funding to support the County’s general government functions, net of transfers to other funds, totals $50.98 million, an increase of $2.4 million (5.0%). Funding for the School Operating Fund, net of transfers to other funds, totals $115.2 million, an increase from the current fiscal year of $6.6 million (6.1%). The proposed FY 2020 budget also includes

the Debt Service Fund ($23.4 million); the School Nutrition Fund ($4.6 million); the School Capital Fund ($3.0 million); the County Capital Fund ($3.5 million); the Economic Development Authority ($0.4 million); and the Law Library Fund ($17,600). Please note the following graphs of the Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposed FY 2019-2020 revenues and expenditures:

The School Superintendent proposed a $6.1 million request for County funds for FY 2019-2020. Following our publication deadline, I understand that the Montgomery County School Board added to the proposed request, which is not reflected in this budget document. My proposed budget provides the school system with an additional $3,000,000 in operating funds for the upcoming fiscal year. In addition, I am recommending that the real estate tax revenue set aside for school capital projects be increased by 1.5 cents of

the Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s real estate tax rate ($1,266,914) for a total of 3.5 cents, which will provide nearly $3 million annually for future school construction. While the $3,000,000 in recommended local monies for school operations does not fully fund the School Boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s request, MCPS is also receiving $3.6 million in new funding from the Commonwealth of Virginia.

Over the past ten fiscal years, the County has provided $15.9 million or 45% in additional local dollars for school operations, as shown in the chart below:

We must continue to emphasize to our state legislators that local governments cannot continue to address the shortfalls in education funding from the Commonwealth. Funding in the 2019-2020 Proposed Budget for other educational initiatives includes an increase of $250,000 for a total of $500,000 for the ACCE program at New River Community College, allowing high school seniors in Montgomery County to continue their education tuition free for two years at the community college. For general government functions, $50.98 million is proposed, which covers nine operational areas of the County. Of the $7.6 million in new local revenue, $2.4 million or 31.6% is allocated to support general government functions. These nine areas include funds that support 12 county departments, five Constitutional offices, three agencies under separate boards, four court functions, five rescue squads, five fire departments, and 44 outside agencies.

County Capital*

*County Capital includes the 1.5 cents of the real estate tax rate earmarked for Fire and Rescue apparatus and funds for capital maintenance.

As part of the FY 2019-2020 budget, I recommend the Board continue to invest in the County’s greatest asset, our employees, by supporting a 3.5% compensation increase for all full-time and part-time classified employees. Employees at the top of their pay ranges will receive a 3.5% one-time bonus. This proposed increase, coupled with the adjustments made through the new Compensation and Classification Plan in the current fiscal year, will continue to demonstrate your commitment to our employees for the contributions they make each and every day to the success of our organization. To ensure our continued success, as well as provide a high level of service to our citizens, additional human resources must be added to the County organization. Increased responsibilities, greater regulatory requirements, added state mandates, citizen demands and the need to plan for future challenges have created a burden on already stretched departments beyond what is reasonably manageable. With the growth in revenues this year, I proposed that approximately one cent ($849,330) of the real estate tax be earmarked for new positions throughout the County’s various operating areas. The 11 full-time positions include: another planner in our Planning department; an evidence investigator for the Sheriff’s office; an application specialist and a technology support specialist (focusing on public safety

functions, primarily the Sheriff’s office); a management/policy analyst for County administration; two family service workers for the Department of Social Services; a law clerk for the Circuit Court judges; two laborer positions in General Services; and an office technician at the Animal Care and Adoption Center. In the libraries, a part-time children’s specialist will be converted to full-time, and two part-time catalogue assistants will become classified positions. While the number of positions recommended for funding is notably more than in past years, the new positions represent only 42% of the full-time positions requested from our County departments. Increased resources are also recommended by adding part–time hours in Human Resources; for kennel assistants at the Animal Care and Adoption Center; and for two interns for Information Technology. The FY 2020 proposed budget also earmarks one penny of the real estate tax rate to be used for future County capital projects. Allocating $844,609 on an annual basis will allow County capital projects to continue to be accomplished in a fiscally responsible manner. Anticipating the results of a current study of County facility maintenance needs, the proposed budget provides an additional $250,000 annually to address capital maintenance projects. With this increase, the County will be budgeting $750,000 annually for capital maintenance projects, and $150,000 for smaller maintenance issues as a part of operations. During the budget development process, the County received requests for increased funds from outside agencies totaling $569,678 more than the current $2.35 million provided in the current fiscal year. Some of these requests are “mandated” requiring the County to fund them while most were requests to expand services, to add services or to increase funds. The proposed budget funds one new outside agency since the Board approved funds within the current fiscal year, but it does not fund all the outside agencies at the level requested. However, $36,000 is held in Special Contingencies in the FY 2020 proposed budget should the Board decide to allocate additional funding to outside agencies. School resource or security officers were not requested during the budget process, and therefore, no funding is included for these officers in the proposed FY 2019-2020 budget. The school system’s school security task force is charged with determining the best practices for school safety; it is my understanding that no recommendations for school resource or security officers has been made by the committee at this time. Security in our public schools, as well as all of our public facilities, will continue to be of paramount importance. I am very blessed to work with the County’s leadership team, agency heads, and Constitutional officers, who understand the fiscal challenges we face, and who are supportive of our fiscally conservative approach to budgeting. As a team, we work to build upon our past successes, and continue your tradition of providing fiscally responsible operating and capital plans for the County. I appreciate Carol Edmonds, Angie Hill, Marc Magruder, Paul Kaiser, and Susan Dickerson, who provide detailed analysis and review of the information submitted from our departments, and who draft the documents that we use in our presentation to you and our citizens. Thanks also to Jennifer Harris and Derley Aguilar, who use their creative magic to ensure that our presentation and information reflects our best efforts. I am confident that the proposed budget provides essential funds to continue our high level of services to our citizens and businesses; maintains the programs and activities of the County organization and of the public

schools; and provides for investment in our greatest asset, our employees, and ensures that they can perform their jobs in an efficient and safe manner. The required public hearings on the proposed budget and tax rate are scheduled for Thursday, April 4, 2019, at 6 p.m. Our plan is for the Board to approve the tax rate and budget for advertisement at your regular meeting on Monday, March 11, 2019, in order to meet the required deadlines. I look forward to working with you in the days ahead as you review and deliberate the proposed budget for FY 2020. Your leadership has ensured that the County successfully dealt with the challenges of the past, and I know that the upcoming fiscal year will be another year of great accomplishment for Montgomery County. I am honored to serve as your County Administrator, and I greatly value your support and encouragement.

Respectfully submitted,

F. Craig Meadows County Administrator

OVERVIEW OF MONTGOMERY COUNTY

Montgomery County, Virginia Since its founding in the eighteenth century, Montgomery County has experienced a rich history in agriculture, manufacturing, and technology with ties to notable historical figures to include George Washington and even Daniel Boone. The County has experienced consistent growth throughout the years. Montgomery County - which is home to two of the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s four largest towns, Blacksburg and Christiansburg - is a high-tech community strategically located on the Interstate 81 corridor. The County provides a full range of services to its 99,433 residents to include: law enforcement; fire and rescue; planning and GIS; economic development; social services; courts; parks and recreation; general services; engineering and regulatory services; animal control; libraries; and schools. Montgomery County traces its origin to 1776 when it was formed and named after General Richard Montgomery, an American hero of the French and Indian War and the American Revolution. The first settlement, Draperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Meadow, was established in the 1740s but was destroyed by Shawnee Indians during the French and Indian War. Christiansburg, the county seat, was incorporated in 1792 and named in honor of Colonel William Christian. This community was an important stop on the Wilderness Road, which roughly corresponds to the present day U.S. Route 11. As the retail hub of the County, Christiansburg is host to several shopping centers and restaurants. Blacksburg was incorporated in 1871. The town originated on tracts of land donated by William Black - for whom it was named - and was established at the same site as the previous OVERVIEW OF MONTGOMERY COUNTY : 7

UNDERSTANDING THE BUDGET

UNDERSTANDING THE BUDGET PROCESS

Preparation of the Annual Budget Montgomery County’s annual budget begins with the proposed budget, the budget recommended by the County Administrator, and ends with the approved budget, which has been reviewed and adjusted by the Board of Supervisors. This budget document includes both the County’s general government operating budget and Montgomery County Public Schools’ operating budget. The Board of Supervisors holds public hearings at which citizens may express their views on the recommended budget. Such comments assist the Board of Supervisors in making decisions regarding spending. The County’s 2020 Budget Calendar is as follows (some changes may occur during the process):

The County’s Budget Process With the goal of allowing decision-makers to focus on broader issues, the budget document consolidates similar functions. Efforts to streamline the process and reduce the volume of paper U N D E R S T A N D I N G T H E B U D G E T P R O C E S S : 59

UNDERSTANDING THE BUDGET PROCESS generated have changed the process in past years. The FY 2020 budget continues to consolidate information and array budget data in ways that facilitate a broader understanding of the document. These include:

Base Budget Targets are established for budget requests. This allows for the delineation between previously approved funding levels and requested increases in items. Base Budget Targets are established as follows: • Personal Services - Includes all positions approved up to the issuance of the proposed budget, and covers the estimated costs in fringe benefits. • Operations and Maintenance - Caps funding at the level of the FY 19 Approved Budget, less adjustments for one-time only expenditure items. • Excludes Capital Outlay - Capital Outlay requests are presented separately from the Base Budget.

Addenda Requests are increased funding over and above the Base Budget Targets. They must be presented as Addenda to the Base Budget. This means that additional justification for increased funding or the inclusion of Capital Outlay dollars must be provided with the request.

Base Budget Estimated costs for continued operations Based on prior year approved budget with adjustments

MONTGOMERY COUNTY, VIRGINIA

APPROVED BUDGET

for fiscal year 2020

REVENUE SUMMARY

Revenue Forecasting Montgomery County’s general revenue forecast is developed based on past revenue trends, current revenue collections and current and future local growth patterns. The County’s local economy, along with state and federal influences contribute to the revenue picture. Budget staff, with data from the Commissioner of the Revenue and Treasurer offices, work throughout the year evaluating revenue trends, collection rates, and growth patterns to determine the revenue projection for the next fiscal year. Local, state, and national economic conditions all influence the local fiscal environment. The County’s revenue structure, job base, and major economic contributors provide a strong foundation for sustained growth. Montgomery County is home to Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech), which is the second largest public university in Virginia. Virginia Tech is also the largest employer in the County, providing jobs for approximately 12,000 employees. Montgomery County is fairly unique in that Virginia Tech’s presence in the community provides a stable foundation for economic growth. However, even with the presence of a stable and large employer, the local economy remains heavily dependent on the broader state and national economies. These broader economies are some of the most important factors in predicting increased revenue growth, even at the local level.

National Economic Outlook The condition of the County economy is greatly affected by national and state economic conditions.

National Economic Outlook According to economists, the U.S. economic outlook is healthy, with Gross Domestic Product (GDP), which is the total market value of goods and services produced in the United States, in an ideal range, unemployment at manageable levels, low inflation, and housing still at strong levels. All of these factors provide a recipe for strong growth patterns. In the near term, the prospects for economic expansion look favorable with growth at above trend pace. Tax cuts passed by Congress continue to provide a boost to consumer spending and should continue to provide additional economic growth into 2019.

Gross Domestic Product (GDP) GDP is one of the broadest measures of the economy. This measure affects interest rates, fiscal budgeting, and U.S. monetary policy. According to the Bureau of Economic Analysis, the GDP of the U.S. increased at a rate of 4.2% in the second quarter of 2018. For the third quarter, the rate increased by 3.4%. Analysts expect the economy to grow by 2.9% for 2018, 2.2% to 2.7% for 2019, and 2% to 2.2% for 2020. The ideal range for manageable GDP growth is in the 2% to 3% range.

Unemployment The unemployment rate is a second measure of the broader economy, and it is one that personally affects most Americans. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the national unemployment rate for 2018 was 3.9%, down from 4.4% for 2017. Comparing the latest information, the unemployment rate for December 2018 was 3.9%, down from 4.1% in December 2017. Unemployment rates are well below the U.S. historical average of 5.8%. Some economists estimate that the unemployment rate will remain below 4% in 2019. REVENUE SUMMARY : 67

REVENUE SUMMARY Inflation – Consumer Price Index (CPI) The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a measure of inflation. In 2018, the percentage change (inflation rate) for the CPI was 2.4%, up from 2.1% in 2017. The inflation rate for 2019 is estimated at 1.9%. Low inflation rates mean that purchasing power and the cost for goods and services are remaining stable.

Housing and Auto Sales The housing market is showing signs of slowing growth for 2019. Low unemployment and a strong job market still provide solid fundamentals for continued growth. While some economists estimate a slowdown in housing, house price growth is still expected to outpace inflation. Also, despite rising interest rates, Millennials continue to buy homes. While new home sales are expected to slow for 2019, manageable growth is expected. For 2018, forecasters estimated that U.S. auto sales for 2018 would drop below 17 million units for the first time since 2014. However, national auto sales were up over analyst projections for 2018 with more than 17 million units sold. Based on the latest data, forecasters estimate that U.S. auto sales for 2019 to be about 16.8 million units, which would still be strong growth going forward.

State Economic Outlook According to Economists, Virginia’s economic outlook is consistent with national trends with the economy still showing continued moderate growth for 2019.

Virginia Unemployment According to the VEC, the unemployment rate for the State of Virginia for 2017 was 3.8%, down from 4.1% in 2016. Comparing the latest information, the unemployment rate for December 2018 was 2.6%, down from 3.3% in December 2017. Like the U.S. employment rates, Virginia’s unemployment rate for 2017 is below the historical average of the past 14 years of 4.8%. State economists expect personal income to grow at 4.1% for FY 2019 and between 4.5% and 4.8% between FY 2020 and FY 2022; employment is expected to grow by 1.1% for FY 2020 and 0.6% for FY 2021.

State General Fund Revenues State General Fund revenues for FY 2018 rose by 6.3%, creating a surplus of over $552 million for the year. State General Fund revenue projections for FY 2019 and FY 2020 show solid above trend growth at 5.88% and 3.03%. Sales tax collections are estimated to grow at 3.7% for FY 2019 and 3.9% for FY 2020.

Other State Funds More than half of the State’s revenues are non-general fund revenues, designated funds earmarked for specific purposes. These funds include federal grants, institutional revenue, unemployment insurance funds, and Master Tobacco Settlement Agreement funds. These designated non-general funds are expected to grow by 31.6% in FY 2019 and 11.5% in FY 2020.

Local Economic Outlook Like the U.S. and State economic outlooks, Montgomery County’s economic outlook is healthy with strong, manageable, and consistent yearly growth. The County’s unique qualities and job REVENUE SUMMARY : 68

REVENUE SUMMARY base provide a strong foundation for sustained growth. Local employment rates are consistent with state and federal trends. According to the VEC, the unemployment rate for Montgomery County for 2017 was 3.8%, down from 4.2% in 2016. Comparing the latest information, the unemployment rate for December 2018 was 2.5%, down from 3.1% in December 2017. Like the U.S. employment rates, Montgomery County’s unemployment rate for 2017 was below the historical 14- year average of 4.79%.

County Resources Resources within the County budget are classified as either designated or undesignated. • Designated Resources represent revenue accounts which are mandated for specific uses including: • Support from the State Compensation Board for constitutional officers, court fees, fees for services and programs • Direct state aid for public assistance payments • State and federal funds for schools • Support for human services programs • Undesignated Resources fall into two categories: undesignated revenue and fund balance. Undesignated Revenue represents dollars which may be used in the budget at the Board’s discretion. These include property taxes, sales taxes, and similar local sources of revenue. Total budgeted revenue for FY 20 is $201.5 million with $85.1 million considered designated. Of this designated amount, $68.8 million or 80.8% is earmarked for schools. Undesignated Revenue dollars that may be used in the budget at the Board’s discretion total $116.4 million. Of this amount, $51.8 million goes to the public schools for operations, and $21.3 million of the undesignated dollars support debt service costs for county and public school facilities.

REVENUE SUMMARY

Local Revenue and Growth for FY 19 Local revenue growth is heavily dependent on property taxes, especially the real estate tax, which is the County’s single largest local revenue source. Real estate revenues represent 63% of the County’s total undesignated revenue. Personal Property tax revenue (motor vehicles) is the County’s second largest local revenue source; it represents 13% of the County’s undesignated revenue. Sales and Use Tax is the third largest local revenue source; it represents 8% of the County’s undesignated revenue. Taken together, these three revenue sources account for 84% of the County’s undesignated revenue and represent the bulk of revenue growth the County experiences on a yearly basis. In FY 18, several revenue categories exceeded projections, while several fell short of the projected estimates. In FY 19, total revenue collections to date appear to be consistent with the budget targets. Sales tax collections and personal property collections are above trend for FY 19 creating surpluses for the year; however, shortfalls in other categories, particularly delinquent taxes, offset these surpluses. For FY 20, the County projects an increase of approximately $8.1 million in new undesignated revenue. This large increase in revenue is primarily due to: • the County’s calendar year (CY) 2019 general real estate reassessment, • the County retaining the existing real estate tax rate of 89 cents, • and growth from new construction. The total dollars generated from real estate is projected at $6.2 million. Personal property (motor vehicles) is projected to increase $0.8 million; sales and use tax is estimated to increase $0.5 million; and all remaining categories of undesignated revenue provide an additional $0.6 million. General Fund designated revenues are estimated to remain relatively flat, providing only $0.4 million for FY 20. Given current economic conditions, total General Fund revenue growth for FY 20 is expected to reach $8.5 million.

Real Estate Revenue (2019 General Reassessment) Montgomery County is required by state code to reassess real estate at least once every four years. Real Estate values totaling $7.9 billion on the 2018 land book (including the land use value) increased 9% to $8.7 billion, due to the reassessment and 2019 new construction growth. New construction for the 2020 land book is estimated at $100 million, bringing the 2020 land book total value to $8.8 billion. State law requires that, should the increase in values be above 1%, the locality must lower the tax rate to a revenue neutral rate. If the rate is not lowered to a rate less than or equal to a revenue neutral rate, the tax rate must be treated as an increase. This budget approves holding the real estate rate at the current rate $0.89 per $100 of assessed value, which is a 6 cent tax rate increase over the revenue neutral rate of 83 cents. Increased real estate tax dollars are comprised of: 1% increase in values plus new real estate growth

Personal Property Personal property tax collections are based on the 2018 tax book, which is the most recent documentation of assessment values. From this data, the 2019 values are estimated. In addition, prior year collection rates are used as predictors of future year collections. The rate of collection in FY 18 and FY 19 is used to estimate the rate of collection in FY 20. The tax rate for personal property categories is $2.55 per $100 of assessed value. This category includes motor vehicles (the Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second largest source of revenue), business furniture and fixtures, and computer equipment. FY 20 estimated taxes on motor vehicles total $15.3 million; business furniture and fixtures total $3.3 million, and computer equipment total $0.4 million. On January 1, 2016, the County began the process of prorating personal property for motor vehicles. Under the former method of assessment, motor vehicles property assessments were based on the value of vehicles owned on January 1 of each year. The value of the vehicle(s) owned on that date was reported on the September 1 personal property book. Any changes after January 1 did not become effective for taxing purposes until the following January 1. By prorating motor vehicle values, changes that occur after January 1 become effective in the current tax year and appear on the September 1 book (or as a supplement bill or tax abatement after September 1 for the remainder of the calendar year). Revenue for personal property motor vehicles is expected to grow by $0.8 million for FY 20 for a total estimate of $15.3 million.

Sales and Use Taxes Montgomery Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s third largest category of undesignated revenues is sale and use tax. Sales and use tax is a consumption tax paid for sales of certain goods and services. For fiscal year 2018, the County collected $9.2 million (which nets $0.2 million that should have been sent to the towns before year-end) and expects to collect $9.6 million for FY 19, which is well above trend. Based REVENUE SUMMARY : 72

Other Categories of Undesignated Revenue Historically, the Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s other undesignated revenues grow at a modest level on a yearly basis. For FY 20, all other categories of undesignated revenue are expected to grow by $0.6 million. The County is expected to experience flat collections in delinquent tax revenue, even with the recent real estate tax assessment and a slight decrease in telecommunications tax of $0.1 million; however these are being offset with growth from other categories of personal and current property taxes such as business furniture and fixtures revenue of $0.1 million, machinery and tools revenue of $0.2 million, $0.1 million is merchants capital, and $0.3 million in addition interest earnings due to an interest rate adjustment on the Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s banking services contract. Machinery and Tools is a tax on businesses at $1.82 per $100 in value which is assessed at 60%/50%/40% depending on the number of years the asset has been owned. For the past decade, revenue collections had been relatively flat for many years, with slight increases over the past four fiscal years. The County estimates $2.7 million in collections for FY 19. The FY 20 estimate has been set at $2.9 million, providing growth of $0.2 million.

Fiscal Year

State Budget: Local Impact Over the past several fiscal years, the state has reduced the amount of funding provided to local governments. Public education, public safety, Constitutional Officers, local libraries, and other local services have all been affected. In many areas, the state has shifted the burden of revenue generation on local governments. For the Montgomery County Public School System, the Governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget includes an additional $3,588,883 in new funding for general school operational needs. Other miscellaneous funding increases in the Governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget include a 3% pay increase for all constitutional officers and their employees on July 1, 2019. These additional funds provide $163,304 in new state monies. Since the County pays significantly more than the state approved salaries, this adds to the overall increase in designated revenue sources.

County Tax Rates There is no change in the tax rates from FY 19 to FY 20, including the approved real estate rate of 89 cents. All tax rates are per $100 of assessed value. As discussed previously, the recent general real estate reassessment resulted in a revenue neutral real estate rate of 83 cents. REVENUE SUMMARY : 74

Fund Balance No General Fund balance dollars have been used to balance the FY 20 budget.

Reserve Funds Reserve funds are dollars set aside that are not required for expenditure in the current year or are earmarked for a specific future purpose.

Why Do We Need Reserve Funds? The financial health of a locality is determined based on its “operating position” which refers to three factors: • The County’s ability to balance the budget using current revenue (not using fund balance in the operating budget). • The County’s ability to maintain reserves for emergencies (establishing reserve REVENUE SUMMARY : 75

REVENUE SUMMARY funds for specific purposes). • The County’s ability to maintain sufficient cash to pay expenses on a timely basis (ensuring an adequate level of cash flow reserves).

Why Shouldn’t We Use Reserve Money to Balance the Budget? These funds are “non-recurring”. The use of these funds can only be for items that do not require expenditures in future years (one-time-only expenses). These funds cannot be used for salary increases, additional personnel, or program expansion that recurs in future years. For example, if $1,000,000 of reserve monies were used in the budget to cover salaries, the next year there would be $1,000,000 worth of costs and $1,000,000 less money. The County’s financial advisors have recommended a policy of maintaining undesignated fund balance between 10% and 12% of operating revenue. The County maintains a number of specific reserve funds to respond positively to unforeseen circumstances, should they arise in the current year or the next year’s budget. The County’s primary reserve is the Cash Flow Reserve, which sets aside approximately $21 million or 10.4% of the total FY 20 Budget to ensure sufficient cash to pay the bills. Other reserve funds that the County maintains include, but are not limited to: • Capital Reserve to support capital that may not be funded in the Capital Projects Fund • Landfill Post Closure Reserve to support potential costs with monitoring and remediation of closed landfills • Facilities and Maintenance Reserve to support unanticipated facility and general maintenance items • Technology Reserve for technology projects and infrastructure requirements • Rainy Day Fund Reserve to address major unanticipated financial issues • Line of Duty Reserve to provide funds for family members of employees that are killed in the line of duty • Parental Leave Reserve to provide funds to cover additional staffing costs, such as overtime, for departments whose employees are on extended leave • Road Maintenance Reserve to earmark the County share of the Revenue Sharing Program • Conservation Easement Reserve to support conservation easements and the County’s land use program

Financial Policies The Board of Supervisors adopted financial policies and goals to influence and guide the financial management of the County.

Financial Policies

REVENUE SUMMARY

Appendix B: Financial Policies Capital improvement budget policies 1. The County will consider all capital improvements in accordance with an adopted capital improvement program. 2. The County will develop a five-year plan for capital improvements and update each annually. 3. The County will enact an annual capital budget based on the five-year capital improvement plan. Future capital expenditures necessitated by changes in population, changes in real estate development, or changes in economic base will be calculated and included in capital budget projections. 4. The County will coordinate development of the capital improvement budget with development of the operating budget. Future operating costs associated with new capital improvements will be projected and included in operating budget forecasts. 5. The County will use intergovernmental assistance to finance only those capital improvements that are consistent with the capital improvement plan and County priorities, and whose operating and maintenance costs have been included in operating budget forecasts. 6. The County will maintain all its assets at a level adequate to protect the Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capital investment and to minimize future maintenance and replacement costs. 7. The County will project its equipment replacement and maintenance needs for the next several years and will update this projection each year. From this projection a maintenance and replacement schedule will be developed and followed. 8. The County will identify the estimated costs and potential funding sources for each capital project proposal before it is submitted for approval. 9. The County will attempt to determine the least costly financing method for all new projects.

Debt policies 1. The County will confine long-term borrowing to capital improvement or projects that cannot be financed from current revenues except where approved justification is provided. 2. When the County finances capital improvements or other projects by issuing bonds or entering into capital leases, it will repay the debt within a period not to exceed the expected useful life of the project. 3. Net debt as a percentage of estimated market value of taxable property should strive to be below 3.0% but not exceed 4.0%. 4. The ratio of debt service expenditures as a percent of governmental fund expenditures (General Fund plus School Operating Fund expenditures less the General Fund transfer to the School Operating Fund) should strive to be below 10% but not exceed 12%. 5. The County will review the 10 year tax supported debt and lease payout ratio on an annual basis, and intends to maintain the ratio at 60% over a five year period, with the ratio being no less than 55% in any one year during the period. REVENUE SUMMARY : 95

REVENUE SUMMARY 6. The County recognizes the importance of underlying and overlapping debt in analyzing financial condition. The County will regularly analyze total indebtedness including underlying and overlapping debt. 7. Where feasible, the County will explore the usage of special assessment, revenue, or other self-supporting bonds instead of general obligation bonds. 8. The County will retire tax anticipation debt, if any, annually and will retire bond anticipation debt within six months after completion of the project. 9. On all General Fund support, debt-financed projects, the County will attempt to make a down payment of at least 5% of total project costs in the aggregate from current resources. The long term goal is to annually designate a portion of General Fund cash for one time capital projects.

Reserve policies The County will establish an emergency reserve to pay for needs caused by unforeseen emergencies, including unanticipated expenditures of a nonrecurring nature, or to meet unexpected small increases in service delivery costs. This General Contingency will be budgeted at not less than 1.0% of the General Fund. Unassigned fund balance at the close of each fiscal year should be at least 12% of the General Fund plus School Operating Fund revenues, excluding the General Fund transfer to the School Operating Fund. Should the County find it necessary to access these funds in an emergency situation the Unassigned Fund Balance would be allowed to fall below the target described above. Any appropriation which causes Unassigned Fund Balance to drop below 12% will occur only after the County Administrator presents to the Board of Supervisors a plan and timeline for replenishing the balance to a minimum of 12%.

Investment policies OVERVIEW The County Board of Supervisors recognizes that it is the explicit constitutional responsibility of the County Treasurer to invest County Funds in accordance with Virginia Law. It is the desire of the County Board of Supervisors to provide the Treasurer with the most timely information in order to best execute the powers of the Treasurerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office. To that end, the following Investment Policies are intended as a guide for the County Board of Supervisors to facilitate this relationship.

POLICIES The County will attempt to provide a cash-flow analysis of all funds on a continuous basis. Disbursement, collection, and deposit of funds will be scheduled to insure maximum cash availability. The County will develop an annual cash-flow budget for County Operations to be reviewed quarterly with the Treasurer.

BOARD OF SUPERVISORS : 104

BOARD OF SUPERVISORS

About There are seven members of the Board of Supervisors, each elected from one of the seven geographic districts. The Board of Supervisors serves as the County’s legislative arm, with both administrative and legislative responsibilities. Terms are for four years; three or four seats are up for reelection each odd year.

Board of Supervisors The Board sets the annual budget and local tax rates, enacts ordinances governing the County and its citizens, sets policies and oversees their administration. The Board also appoints members of various boards and committees, and adopts the County’s comprehensive land use plan and related ordinances.

Highlights • Montgomery County conveyed 9.25 acres of land, commonly referred to as “The Meadow” to the Town of Blacksburg for recreational use and dedicated it to longtime Montgomery County Board of Supervisors Member, Annette Perkins, District A. • The Board of Supervisors unveiled concept plans for expanding the Eastern Montgomery Recreation Complex to include new ball fields, a multipurpose field, and a dedicated parking area. When the construction is complete, “Creed Field” will be dedicated in honor of Supervisor Gary Creed’s long-time service in District C. • The County implemented the use of BoardDocs, an agenda and meeting management software for the Board of Supervisors meetings. • Representing over 1,673 years of combined service, the individuals with more than 40 years of service who volunteer for the Christiansburg, Blacksburg, Elliston, Long Shop McCoy, Riner, and Shawsville fire departments and rescue squads were recognized by the Board of Supervisors. • The Board launched the Valley to Valley Trail Initiative (a regional effort to create a walking and biking trail system to connect the Roanoke and New River Valleys) by hosting a Regional Trail Forum where localities from the Roanoke and Mount Rogers regions discussed ways to interconnect trail systems throughout Southwest Virginia.

BOARD OF SUPERVISORS • ($5,000) is Reduced and Transferred from the Board of Supervisors Budget to the County Attorney’s Budget – Each year the County has Municode update and provide hardcopies of the County’s code. Municode is now offering a new product that will allow the County to self-publish the County’s code utilizing a cloud based subscription. In prior years, these costs were incorrectly paid for from the Board of Supervisor’s budget. For FY 20, these funds are being transferred from the Board of Supervisor’s budget to the County Attorney’s budget since the cost should be recorded in the County Attorney budget.

• $63,955 in FY 19 Capital Outlay Funding is Retained in the Base Budget – In the FY 19 budget, the County provided additional funding to cover various equipment purchases. These funds, which are normally reduced in the following year, are retained in the base budget to cover the ongoing cost of the County’s new body cameras. This cost covers a lease that includes the equipment and associated software.

• $62,200 is Added to the Base Budget for One Full-Time School Resource Officer (1 FTE) – In the FY 19 budget, the County provided additional funding in Special Contingencies for further study of safety measures needed for elementary schools in the County. During the year, the Board approved transferring $62,200 from Special Contingencies to the Sheriff’s Office to cover one full-time School Resource Officer.

• $77,008 is Added for One Full-time Investigator Position (1 FTE) – This position is added to handle all evidence needs of the Sheriff’s Department and will maintain the evidence room. This position will assist with crime scene investigations, review evidence procedures, prepare lab requests, conduct digital forensics, develop fingerprints without the need for a forensics lab, and manage the evidence section of the County’s Records Management System. The amount evidence and the growth in evidence storage needs has created the need for a full-time position.

• $62,200 is Added for One Full-time School Resource Office (1 FTE) - This position is added to provide additional safety measures for elementary schools in the County. One additional School Resource Office (SRO) was added in FY 19. With this addition, the County has provided 2 additional SROs over the past 2 fiscal years.

• $2,620 is Added for Mapping and Analysis Software – Funds are added to purchase a web-based mapping and analysis software built specifically for cell phones. This information contains precision location data that is normally mapped by hand to determine if a suspect was at the scene of the crime at the time the crime occurred. Mapping 100,000 call records by hand can take up to 280 hours to complete, but with this new software program, this information can automatically be mapped in just four minutes by dragging and dropping the information into the software. This system will save time and provides valuable evidence for criminal investigations.

• $8,000 is Added in One-time Costs for Storage Cabinets and a Tool Chest – Funds are added for new storage cabinets and tool chest for the Sally port. The current cabinets are over 15 years old, not secure, have insufficient storage, and are in disrepair.

ANIMAL CARE AND ADOPTION CENTER : 194

ANIMAL CARE AND ADOPTION CENTER

About The Animal Care and Adoption Center, opening in 2017, is a new beginning for Montgomery County residents by combining animal care and recreation services. Located on five acres along Cinnabar Road near the County’s Frog Pond recreational area, the 16,300 square foot Center’s primary goal is to increase animal adoptions by expanding visitation and maximizing visibility through attractive design, in a recreational setting. The Center represents a transition from a traditional pound facility to a community hub for companion animal resources and leisure time events. Donations and County dollars support the Center and its staff.

Animal Care and Adoption Center The Center will offer educational tours and classes, vaccination and spay/neuter clinics, pet training classes, animal demonstrations, outdoor events and other leisure time activities. Long range plans include integrating the Center with a dog park and walking trails connecting the Frog Pond, picnic shelters, and disc golf course, making the entire area a recreation destination.

Animal Care and Adoption Center-Donations Donations and local fees support 46% of the facility and staffing costs to operate the Center.

Highlights • The Animal Care and Adoption Center has an adoption-friendly philosophy and a mission focused on education, adoption, and community. • In 2018, more than 1,530 pets were adopted, reclaimed, or rescued, and the Center achieved a 95.5% live release rate. • The Center had over 1,200 new volunteers and hosted several group tours to include local schools and day care facilities. • Staff collaborated with many local businesses and teaching institutions to provide valuable care and enrichment for Center animals.

• Base Salary and Fringe Benefit Adjustments – All fringe benefit rates remain unchanged for FY 20. Funding is also included to cover a 3.5% compensation increase, effective July 1, 2019.

• $31,000 is Transferred from Operations and Maintenance to Part-time Salaries – The Animal Care and Adoption Budget was developed without any prior budget or operating history. After the first year of operation it has been determined that monies need to be moved within the division for operational efficiency. Therefore, $31,000 in base operation and maintenance funds are being transferred to part-time salaries to address part-time staffing needs of the facility.

• $50,730 is Added to Cover Spay and Neuter Costs – Each animal adopted from the ACAC is spayed or neutered, and the adopters pay the associated cost as part of the adoption fee. The revenue collected offsets the corresponding expenditure and is added to the budget for FY 20.

• $49,191 is Added for One Full-time Office Technician (1 FTE) – Currently, the Animal Care and Adoption Center is open 7 days a week and has a single 40-hour per week front desk position. This position is responsible for phone calls, greeting the public, entering animals into the shelter database, updating animal health and medicine information, and other tasks. During a single week, more than 300 people visit the center. Handling these duties is more than a single full-time person can cover. As a result, the shelter supervisor and coordinators rotate these duties on weekends, which are the busiest days of the week. The addition of this position will free up more time for the director, coordinators, and the shelter supervisor to complete their own job responsibilities and increase the efficiency of the center.

ANIMAL CARE AND ADOPTION CENTER : 196

ANIMAL CARE AND ADOPTION CENTER • $27,093 is Added for Part-time Hours for Shelter Assistants –According to the Association of Shelter Veterinarians, each animal in a shelter’s care requires 15 minutes of minimum daily care. Virginia animal shelters are also required by law to perform daily observations (1 minute per animal), and provide medications and medical care as needed (2 hours per day). In addition, every animal entering the center is given a physical exam, vaccinations, and parasite treatment or preventatives. In order to provide the basic required care for the center’s average of 93 animals per day, and provide housekeeping to the public areas, the center requires 282 hours of kennel staffing per week. The center is currently operating with only 146 hours of kennel staffing per week and 84 hours of jail trustee staffing. Additional part-time hours are provided to cover this 52-hour weekly deficit that is currently being covered by front desk staff, coordinators, and other staff members, which is taking away from their responsibilities.

GENERAL SERVICES

About General Services division is responsible for auxiliary and operational support services for all County divisions. Services are provided through Administration, Animal Control, Buildings and Grounds, Centralized Maintenance, Housekeeping, Lawns and Landscaping, Litter Control, and Solid Waste Collection. The division also oversees Internal Services, Engineering, Stormwater, Landfills, and Inspections.

Administration This department manages administrative functions for the division.

Animal Control Animal Control enforces County ordinances and state laws relating to animals, including impounding stray dogs, investigating livestock deaths due to animals, quarantines for animals involved in bite cases, and investigating animal cruelty. It also maintains the safety of the public as it pertains to animal ordinances and educates the public about animal laws and welfare.

Buildings and Grounds Buildings and Grounds is responsible for the preservation of County facilities. It maintains 37 County buildings and facilities, eight recreational parks and two industrial parks, and provides general labor support for repair and remodeling projects.

Centralized Maintenance Centralized Maintenance funds one-time projects such as emergency repairs that are not generally funded through the operational budget due to their nature.

Garage Operations Garage Operations provides efficient repairs, services, inspections and maintenance of about 165 County vehicles, including the sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fleet.

Housekeeping The Housekeeping department provides custodial services to ensure the cleanliness and safety of 11 County facilities, which is 441,520 square feet of space.

Inspections Inspections is responsible for the enforcement of the Uniform Statewide Building Code to protect health, safety and welfare of citizens.

Lawns and Landscaping Lawns & Landscaping is responsible for maintaining 106 acres of property, including landscaping services, tree trimming and grass cutting. It also assists in maintaining recreational facilities, including the Motor Mile Complex, Plum Creek ballfields, Auburn ballfields, and the new and old GENERAL SERVICES : 201

GENERAL SERVICES Shawsville elementary schools ballfields.

Litter Control Litter Control manages the annual roadside waste clean-up, hazardous waste collection and annual latex paint exchange. It also works in conjunction with the towns of Christiansburg and Blacksburg, and Virginia Tech to maintain litter control efforts within the County.

Motor Pool The Motor Pool provides a centralized pool of County owned vehicles for use by County divisions while conducting County business.

Solid Waste Collections Solid Waste Collections provides 10 consolidated sites where residents may dispose of household trash, bulky items and recyclables.

Stormwater Management This department implements and ensures regulation and permit compliance with the County’s Stormwater Management ordinance and the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permits. Stormwater regulations protect water quality from harmful pollutants that can accumulate when rain and snowmelt flow over impervious surfaces (streets, parking areas, buildings, etc.). When heavy or prolonged rains saturate the ground surface, runoff is channeled into storm sewers that ultimately end up in streams, creeks, rivers and the ocean. This department also administers policies, procedures and respective fee schedules related to stormwater compliance, and reviews erosion and sediment control plans prior to issuing land disturbing permits, prepares reports for the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality, and responds to citizen concerns about stormwater drainage issues.

Thompson and Mid-County Landfills The Thompson and Mid-County Landfills were closed in 1993 and 1997, respectively. State and federal laws and regulations required the County to perform groundwater monitoring and mitigation, in 2013 the Department of Environmental Quality required an additional 10 years of monitoring landfills.

Highlights • Focusing on improving and meeting the MS4 program public education and outreach goals, staff from Environmental Services participated in the Stormwater Education Days with Montgomery County Public Schools. The three events throughout the school year reach 700 Montgomery County 6th Graders and 68 teachers/chaperones and include education on stormwater runoff, watersheds, and types of pollution. • On April 28, Broomin’ and Bloomin’ celebrated 35 years of keeping the County beautiful. Over 100 volunteers covered 37 miles and collected over 1,500 pounds of refuse. • In the winter of 2018, the Montgomery County Improvement Council reconvened GENERAL SERVICES : 202

GENERAL SERVICES after a long hiatus. The Council is tasked with implementing various sustainability initiatives for internal operations as well as outreach to the community. .

• Base Salary and Fringe Benefit Adjustments – All fringe benefit rates remain unchanged for FY 20. Funding is also included to cover a 3.5% compensation increase, effective July 1, 2019. • 0.6 FTE Reduced in the Solid Waste Collections Base Budget – When classified site attendants vacate their positions, the County’s policy is to eliminate the classified positions and put the salary and benefit dollars in part-time non-classified salaries. This helps the department manage time more efficiently and provide greater flexibility in solid waste site scheduling.

GENERAL SERVICES : 203

GENERAL SERVICES • Engineering and Regulatory Compliance Division Consolidation into the General Services Division - For FY 20, the Engineering and Regulatory Compliance division is combined with the General Services division to form one division. As a result, $849,227 in expenditures, $214,156 in revenue and 7 FTE are included from the Engineering and Regulatory Compliance division under tab 420.

• $65,719 is Added to Increase the Funding for Centralized Maintenance – In FY 10, the County reduced General Services’ centralized maintenance account by $41,511 or 33% due to the economic downturn. At that time, the base budget for this account was $125,792. These funds have never been restored, leaving $84,281 to address smaller maintenance issues. As the County’s ongoing maintenance needs have increased, the base of $84,281 is inadequate. With these funds, a total of $150,000 is available for ongoing maintenance issues.

• $91,099 is Added for 2 Full-Time Laborer Positions – Two (2) additional full-time laborer positions are added to address staffing requirements in the General Services Division. These positions will perform mowing, trimming, and general landscaping throughout the County. Due to staffing constraints, the County previously contracted mowing services which resulted in many sites not being properly maintained. During the winter months, the laborers will assist the Facilities Maintenance Department with leaf removal, painting, snow removal and other maintenance tasks.

CHILDREN’S SERVICES ACT

About The Children’s Services Act for At-Risk Youth and Families (CSA) was established by the General Assembly to improve coordination, eliminate duplication of services and ensure that costly residential care is provided only in cases where it was clearly warranted. The law requires localities to establish Community Policy and Management teams, and Family Assessment and Planning teams to administer the program. The law also mandates that certain groups of children receive services, primarily special education and foster care. The County is required to provide a local match for all expenditures.

Children’s Services Act The Community Policy and Management Team (CPMT) is responsible for developing policies, managing funds allocated to the County, and authorizing expenditures of these funds. CPMT is comprised of at least one elected or appointed official and agency heads from the local Department of Social Services, school system, Community Services Board (mental health) and the Court Services Unit (juvenile justice), a parent and a private provider. Each CPMT must also establish and appoint at least one Family Assessment and Planning Team (FAPT) to work with families to develop an individualized family service plan or plan of care based on the strengths and needs of the family.

Highlights • CSA served 47 at-risk children and their families in FY18 through foster homes, residential facilities, IEP Private Day School placements, and community-based services. These children and families may receive multiple services throughout the fiscal year. Some examples of community-based services include evaluations, InHome Services, and life skills training.

NEW RIVER VALLEY HEALTH DISTRICT

About The New River Health District, one of the Virginia Department of Health’s (VDH) 35 health districts, is comprised of Floyd, Giles, Montgomery and Pulaski counties and the City of Radford. The district’s environmental health program provides site evaluation and permits for on-site sewage disposal (septic systems) and wells, inspection of restaurants, schools, day care centers, summer camps and festivals to ensure food safety, rabies investigation and follow-up, and general environmental complaint investigations.

New River Health District The Health District provides services in local health department clinics, schools, homes and at other sites in the community to prevent and control the spread of contagious diseases, including child and adult immunizations, immunizations for overseas travel, well baby care, and family planning. Other services include provision of the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program, distribution of free car safety seats to eligible families, Resource Mothers Program and health education services.

Highlights • New River Health District (NRHD) received grant funding through the Virginia Department of Health Office of Epidemiology to develop and implement sexually transmitted infection testing initiative. The district currently hosts five clinics monthly in Montgomery County outside the health department walls with plans to add more. • NRHD again partnered with local school boards, this year offering flu and other required vaccines to students on-site at public schools. Over half of the 2,500+ students, faculty, and staff who received vaccinations were in Montgomery County. • The district is examining clinic efficiency; as a result, it is now offering a selection of walk-in clinics at Montgomery County and has added long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) services in its combined clinic rather than as a separate service. • The NRHD WIC program was recognized for the second consecutive year as having the highest percentage of breastfeeding women in the Commonwealth. • The NRHD WIC program received a grant to fund the purchase of a mobile WIC van to expand service delivery to identified areas of need. The district secured a clinical mobile unit to offer a variety of services to clients throughout Montgomery County and surrounding areas. • The district environmental health program again secured grant funding to support professional development and training for its regulatory staff. • The NRHD environmental health program successfully applied for a CDC Public Health Associate for two years to gain valuable local public health experience, while supporting district work, such as the Rabies One Health Initiative, with the goals of educating the public, strengthening community partnerships, and reducing the number of Animal Exposure Incidents in our community. NEW RIVER VALLEY HEALTH DISTRICT : 219

SOCIAL SERVICES

About The Department of Social Services (DSS) division assists families and individuals in becoming socially and economically self-sufficient and independent. Benefit programs include temporary assistance for needy families, food assistance, Medicaid, energy assistance, general relief, fraud prevention and children’s medical security insurance. DSS works closely with other community agencies to promote the stability and self-sufficiency of community families through referrals to services not available in this agency. It also promotes the creation of services not currently available in the community. The agency works to avoid duplication of services provided by other agencies and to respond to needs not currently addressed in the community.

Social Services Social Services assists in work programs including adoption, adult services/adult protective services, child protective services, day care services for children, foster care, court services and employment services. The department focuses, in the least intrusive manner, on services that individuals and families cannot provide for themselves.

Highlights • Hired two new state-funded, full-time employees to help manage the increase caseload resulting from the statewide Medicaid Expansion on January 1, 2019. • Implemented an electronic transcription service for Child Protective Services, Foster Care and Adoption, and Adult Protective Services workers, enabling workers to phone in their case notes. • Implemented Virginia’s CPS 24/7 Hotline, which manages all reports related to suspected abuse and neglect through a unified system at the state level prior to routing the caller to the appropriate local agency. • Renovated the agency’s reception area to address accessibility and security issues.

SOCIAL SERVICES unchanged for FY 20. Funding is also included to cover a 3.5% compensation increase, effective July 1, 2019. • Base Revenue and Expenditure Reconciliation Adjustments – The base budget revenue and expenditures accounts have been adjusted based on the reconciliation of state and federal funding for FY 19. Each year, following the confirmation of funding available from sources other than County dollars, the base budget for the Department of Social Services is adjusted within the fiscal year, and this adjustment becomes the base budget for the next fiscal year. The FY 19 reconciled County Budget for this Division totaled $5,835,625; $4,840,590 in state and federal dollars and $995,035 in County dollars. Based on the reconciliation for FY 19, a total of $115,652 is added to the base revenue budget for FY 20 and ($23,880) is reduced to base expenditures specifically for public assistance programs. As part of the FY 19 reconciliation, two FTE were added due to Medicaid expansion.

Also, a reduction in the number of passports being requested has reduced fee revenue. This reduction is made based on year-to-date collections for FY 19 and anticipated collections for FY 20.

About This Division consists of all outside agencies that are funded by County General Fund dollars. Agencies that receive funding are divided among five categories: Human Service Agencies, Public Safety Agencies, Education/Cultural Agencies, Environmental Agencies, and Economic Development Agencies.

Human Service Agencies • $330,942 is included for the New River Valley Detention Home, which is level funding – The NRVDH’s request for FY 20 is $145,007, which is a decrease of $185,935. The agency received a total of $330,942 in the FY 19 budget. In the FY 10 request, the formula for determining operating contributions was changed to allocate costs among participant jurisdictions on the basis of days used, averaged over a 3 year period. Under the revised formula, Montgomery County’s billed usage for the facility for FY 20 is $145,007 or 26.52% of the total funding. The facility is over 30 years old and requires upgrades, maintenance, and newer equipment for licensure compliance. Due to the need to address these capital issues, the County is level funding the Detention Home by providing $145,007 for operations based on a three-year average usage and by setting aside the remaining $185,935 in a special reserve to address future facility upgrades.

GENERAL GOVERNMENT DEBT SERVICES

About General Government Debt Service division includes principal, interest and administrative fees on long-term outstanding debt. Debt service accounts are required for the issuance of the bonds to fund new county buildings and schools, building improvements and renovations and other capital improvements.

County Debt Service This includes principal, interest and administrative fees for all County long-term outstanding debt.

School Debt Service School Debt Service includes principal, interest and administrative fees for all school long-term outstanding debt.

Base Budget Discussion The base budget is the estimated minimum cost for providing continued services/operations for each division/department. Debt service has been funded from various sources: monies from the School Operating fund, courthouse maintenance fees, revenue from the New River Valley Emergency Communications Regional Authority lease, and the General Fund. The debt service budget includes funds for principal, interest and debt administration costs, as well as, savings retained from decreases in prior year debt service. Retaining these monies in the base budget accomplishes two objectives:

1. Allow unused monies at year end to fund future capital projects. 2. Provide capacity to offset future debt service cost increases.

â&#x20AC;˘ Reallocation of Base Debt Service Resources - As often as possible, debt issuances are structured to balance debt service from year to year; however, due to the structuring of some refunding issuances school debt service costs increased by $338,313. This increase was absorbed by the savings retained in prior years. The reallocation consists of the following: Increase in Principal

$857,426

Decrease in Interest

($519,113)

Decrease in Funds Retained

($338,313)

Net change
