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 98,509 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 2019 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 generated have changed the process in past years. The FY 2019 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 18 Approved 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 : 57

UNDERSTANDING THE BUDGET PROCESS 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

Addenda Dollars over and above the base budget target for operating and capital items

Total Budget

These changes were designed to clearly identify increases to operations, initiatives proposed by departments, and all capital outlay items requested. The chart below depicts the process.

Addenda Base Budget

Dollars requested for new or expanded services (initiatives)

Excludes: Motor vehicle purchases Office Furniture Other equipment

Montgomery County, Virginia Fiscal Year 2019 PROPOSED Budget

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 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 should provide a boost to consumer spending and provide additional economic growth for 2018.

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 3.2% in the third quarter of 2017. For the fourth quarter, the rate increased by 2.6%. Analysts expect the economy to grow by 2.5% to 2.9% for 2018 and 2.1% for 2019. 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 2017 was 4.4%, down from 4.9% for 2016. Comparing the latest information, the unemployment rate for January 2018 was 4.1%, down from 4.8% in January 2017. Unemployment rates are well below the U.S. historical average of 5.8%. Some economists estimate that the unemployment rate will fall below 4% in 2018.

Inflation – Consumer Price Index (CPI) The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a measure of inflation. In 2017, the percentage change (inflation REVENUE SUMMARY : 65

REVENUE SUMMARY rate) for the CPI was 2.1%, up from 1.3% in 2016. 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 positive signs of growth for 2018. A shortage of housing, coupled with low unemployment and a strong job market provide solid fundamentals for continued growth. Housing starts for 2017 grew at 2.4% for a total of 1.2 million units. This is the highest level of growth since 2007. According to economists, new home sales are expected to grow at a stronger pace for 2018 than 2017. National auto sales on the other hand are down from several years of record growth. In 2017, national auto sales fell from 17.5 million units sold in 2016 to 17.1 million units for 2017, a drop of 1.89%. Based on the latest data, forecasters estimate that U.S. auto sales for 2018 could drop below 17 million units for the first time since 2014.

State Economic Outlook According to Economists, Virginia’s economic outlook is consistent with national trends with the economy showing signs of improvement. However, economists at the state level expect continued moderate growth for 2018. The growth at the state level is still projected to be well below normal trend growth.

Virginia Unemployment According to the VEC, the unemployment rate for the State of Virginia for 2016 was 4%, down from 4.5% in 2015. Comparing the latest information, the unemployment rate for December 2017 was 3.4%, down from 3.8% in December 2016. Like the U.S. employment rates, Virginia’s unemployment rate for 2016 is below the historical average of the past 13 years of 4.9%. State economists expect personal income to grow at 3.3% for FY 2018 and 4.3% for FY 2019; employment is expected to grow by 1% for FY 2019.

State General Fund Revenues State General Fund revenues for FY 2017 rose by 3.6%, creating a surplus of over $134 million for the year. State General Fund revenue projections for FY 2018 and FY 2019 remain below the state’s normal trend, at 3.4% and 4%. Sales tax collections are estimated to grow at 3% for FY 2018 and 2.6% for FY 2019.

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 25.2% in FY 2018 and 8.9% in FY 2019.

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 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 2016 was 4%, down from 4.3% in 2015. Comparing the latest information, the unemployment rate for December 2017 was 3%, down from 3.6% in December 2016. Like the U.S. employment rates, Montgomery County’s unemployment rate for 2016 was below the historical 13 year average of 4.9%. REVENUE SUMMARY : 66

REVENUE SUMMARY

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 19 is $189.0 million with $80.9 million considered designated. Of this designated amount, $65.3 million or 80.7% is earmarked for schools. Undesignated Revenue dollars that may be used in the budget at the Board’s discretion total $108.7 million. Of this amount, $48.0 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.

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 64% of REVENUE SUMMARY : 67

REVENUE SUMMARY 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 85% of the County’s undesignated revenue and represent the bulk of revenue growth the County experiences on a yearly basis. In FY 17, several revenue categories exceeded projections, while several fell short of the projected estimates. In FY 18, total revenue collections to date appear to be consistent with the budget targets. Sales tax collections and personal property collections are below trend for FY 18 creating shortfalls for the year; however surpluses in other categories, particularly interest earnings, offset these shortfalls. For FY 19, the County projects an increase of approximately $1.9 million in new undesignated revenue. New real estate construction is estimated to provide a $1.1 million increase in real property revenue; personal property (motor vehicles) is projected to increase $0.2 million; interest earnings due to a new banking services agreement provide $0.5 million; sales and use tax, even with projected growth is below the FY 18 estimate creating a shortfall of $0.3 million and all remaining categories of undesignated revenue provide an additional $0.4 million. General Fund designated revenues are estimated to remain flat, providing only $0.1 million for FY 19. Given current economic conditions, total General Fund revenue growth for FY 19 is expected to reach $2 million.

Real Estate Revenue Real Estate values are based on the actual assessed value as of January 1, 2017 and estimated increases from new construction. New real estate construction values are expected to be consistent with the last several years. Based on building permit data, from January 1, 2017 to January 1, 2018, assessed values are estimated to increase $116 million. Growth from January 1, 2018 to January 1, 2019 is estimated to increase $110 million. Actual real estate tax revenue for FY 18 is estimated at $66.5 million, which is an increase of approximately $1.1 million over FY 18. The proposed real estate rate remains at $0.89 per $100 of assessed value. Real Estate values totaled $7.8 billion on the 2017 land book including the land use value. The 2018 land book is estimated to be $7.9 billion, which is a 1.5% increase. For the CY 2019 land book, growth is estimated at $110 million, placing the land book at an estimated value of $8 billion.

REVENUE SUMMARY Personal Property Personal property tax collections are based on the 2017 tax book, which is the most recent documentation of assessment values. From this data, the 2018 values are estimated. In addition, prior year collection rates are used as predictors of future year collections. The rate of collection in FY 17 and FY 18 is used to estimate the rate of collection in FY 19. 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 19 estimated taxes on motor vehicles total $14.5 million; business furniture and fixtures total $3.2 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 $0.2 million for FY 19 for a total estimate of $14.5 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 2017, the County collected $9 million and expects to collect $8.9 million for FY 18. Sales tax collections are down for FY 18 creating a shortfall for the category relative to the estimated budget for FY 18 and the prior year actual. With growth of 2.6% projected for FY 19, the County is estimating $9.2 million for next fiscal year, which is $0.3 million less than budgeted for FY 18. The shortfall for FY 18 and FY 19 is offset with increased revenue from interest earnings of $0.5 million due to a new banking services agreement. FY 05

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 2019, all other categories of undesignated revenue are expected to grow by $0.4 million. The County is experiencing lower than expected collections in delinquent tax revenue of $0.2 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 $0.4 million, machinery and tools revenue of $0.1 million, and public service corporation revenues of $0.1 million. 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 have been relatively flat. The County estimates $2.6 million in collections for FY 18. The FY 19 estimate has been set at $2.7 million, providing growth of $0.1 million. REVENUE SUMMARY : 70

Merchants Capital is a tax on the value of inventory at $3.05 per $100 and is assessed at 20% of the actual value. In FY 05, the tax rate was lowered from $4.50 to $3.05 which generated a 38% increase in value deemed to be from car dealerships retaining their inventory within the County. In FY 11, the County lowered the estimate to $0.9 million due to declining inventories at local automotive dealers in the County. The County estimates $1.3 million for FY 18 and $1.3 million for FY 19.

REVENUE SUMMARY : 71

REVENUE SUMMARY 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 $847,390 in new funding for general school operational needs. Other miscellaneous increases in state funding include Compensation Board funding increases to annualize a 2% increase provided to constitutional officers and compression pay for the Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deputies on August 1, 2017. These additional funds provide $16,784 in new state monies. Since the County pays significantly more than the state approved salaries for these positions, this increase in revenue adds to the overall increase in designated revenue sources.

County Tax Rates There is no change in the tax rates from FY 18 to FY 19. All rates are per $100 of assessed value. County Tax Rates

REVENUE SUMMARY

Fund Balance No General Fund balance dollars have been used to balance the FY 19 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 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 11% of the total FY 19 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 improvement projects in the Capital Budget • 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 REVENUE SUMMARY : 73

REVENUE SUMMARY

Conclusions The proposed real estate tax rate is set at 89 cents for the FY 19 Budget, the same rate as adopted for the FY 18 budget. Given the uncertainty of the ability to meet the current year revenue estimates combined with the unknown expenditures that may occur, the Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one-time reserve funds are intended to enable the County to react positively to future circumstances.

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 re-election 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 sold the former Blacksburg High School property to HS Development, L.L.C., for $3 million. • The County sold the front 5.49 acre parcel of the former Blacksburg Middle School site to Midtown Redevelopment L.L.C., for $2.5 million. • The Board of Supervisors honored 37 fire and rescue volunteers, each with over 40 years of experience, representing 1,673 combined service. • County Twitter followers increased by 23 percent to 3465 and YouTube viewers totaled 2,570 for Board of Supervisors Meetings. • The County launched a U.S. Flag Etiquette program. Periodically, Montgomery County will coordinate with Boy Scout Troop 141 and Cub Scout Pack 141 of Christiansburg and the Boy Scout Troop 348 and Cub Scout Pack 348 of Riner to empty the flag disposal boxes and retire the flags properly and respectfully through a flag retirement ceremony that abides by the United States Flag Code. • In December, the County said farewell to Annette Perkins and Gary Creed as members of the Montgomery County Board of Supervisors. Annette Perkins was initially elected in 1998 and served as Chair in 2008, 2009 and 2010 and Vice Chair in 2003 and 2004, totaling nearly 20 years of service on the board. Gary Creed was first elected in 2002 and served as Chair in 2005 and Vice Chair in 2016. Last year, he retired from the board with a total of 15 years of service. • In January, Sara Bohn, District A, and Steve Fijalkowski, District C, began serving as representatives on the Montgomery County Board of Supervisors.

Addenda & Reductions Discussion Addenda consist of dollars over and above the base budget target for operating and capital outlay expenses. Recommended addenda items are often funding provided for new initiatives or expanded services but may also include normal cost increases. Addenda reductions may reflect reduced revenue and/or expense needed to equalize revenue shortfalls. • ($57,400) is Reduced from the Finance Department’s Revenue Budget and ($39,454) is reduced from Expenditures including the Reduction of 1 FTE – The County’s Finance Department processes Public Services Authority (PSA) payments and provides other financial assistance to the PSA.

Base Budget Discussion The base budget is the estimated minimum cost for providing continued services/operations for each division/department. It is based on the prior year approved budget with adjustments. This budget shows how much it would cost in the next fiscal year to operate the same programs in the current fiscal year. • Base Salary and Fringe Benefit Adjustments – For FY 19, the County budget includes a decrease in the Virginia Retirement System (VRS) contribution rate from 11.47% to 10.38% and a decrease in unemployment insurance per position from $34 to $30. All other fringe benefit rates remain unchanged for FY 19. • ($47,795) in One-time Funding is Reduced from the Base Budget – The total consisted of funds provided during the FY 18 budget for the one-time costs to replace SWAT body armor ($22,500), to replace old headsets that are not compatible with the Sheriff’s new NX-5300 radios ($11,195), to replace a 15 year old oven/range in the jail that is past its useful life ($9,000), and to replace a freezer in the jail that is in disrepair ($5,100). • ($113,450) is Reduced from the Western Virginia Regional Jail in the Sheriff’s Office – The County’s share of the Western Virginia Regional Jail’s debt payments in FY 19 will be less than the budgeted amount due to a decrease in the number of inmates housed at the jail. In the FY 18 budget process, the Board of Supervisors indicated it would support a new drug court initiative in Montgomery County. The County would fund up to $25,000, which would be used for housing costs for certain drug court clients. $25,000 of the $113,450 is being transferred from the Sheriff’s Office County budget (320) to Outside Agencies (910) to cover the expenses of the drug court in FY 19.

About The County provides funding for the five volunteer fire departments and the five volunteer rescue squads that deliver emergency services to citizens.

Retirement and Insurance The County has coverage for fire and rescue members which includes accident and sickness, workers compensation, life insurance, and retirement benefits.

Fire Departments Fire departments provide volunteer fire services to County and town residents. The Virginia Department of Fire Programs’ basic training for firefighters involves a minimum of 192 hours, which includes 160 hours of Firefighter Level 1 training and 32 hours of hazmat training. This does not include the in-house training required to operate the equipment of individual departments.

Rescue Squads Rescue squads provide volunteer rescue services to County and town residents. The Virginia Department of Health’s Office of Emergency Medical Services and local squads offer training for squad members. The Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) is required to complete a minimum of 154 hours of training, enhanced rescue members have 256 hours of training, the intermediate rescuer has 528 training hours and paramedics have a minimum 781 training hours. This prepares rescue squad volunteers to provide basic emergency medical care and transportation for patients. Local squads require volunteers to answer calls at will and on assigned call nights.

Regional Fire and Rescue Training Center The Regional Training Center will be available to all agencies in Montgomery County as well as Floyd, Giles and the Radford Army Ammunition Plant Fire Departments. The Training Center property is owned by the Blacksburg Fire Department Foundation with a 25 year lease to Montgomery County. All buildings on site have been purchased through private donations and grants, and the County insures the property. The Town of Christiansburg and the Town of Blacksburg provided labor and equipment for site development. Volunteer fire personnel constructed training aids such as a maze, ladder tower, and ventilation simulator for use at the center.

Highlights • The Fire Department responded to 1654 calls. • And the Rescue Squad responded to 7675 calls. • The Blacksburg Volunteer Rescue Squad received the Governor’s 2017 Outstanding EMS Agency award.

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 support 45% of the facility and staffing costs to operate the Center.

Highlights • The Animal Care and Adoption Center moved into a new facility in April and began accepting and adopting cats for the first time. • The center has an adoption-friendly philosophy and a mission focused on education, adoption, and community. • The Animal Care and Adoption Center continued to foster collaboration with the community to include various organizations such as Friends of Animal Care and Control (FACC). • The center received 1,306 animals of which 719 were adopted; 161 were rescued; and 299 were reclaimed and reunited with their owners. • Since April of 2017, 1,123 individuals have signed up to volunteer at the center. • The staff participated in nearly 30 outreach events and initiatives and welcomed several groups to the center, including K-12 school groups, college clubs and organizations, senior citizens, and juvenile detention center residents.

Base Budget Discussion The base budget is the estimated minimum cost for providing continued services/operations for each division/department. It is based on the prior year approved budget with adjustments. This budget shows how much it would cost in the next fiscal year to operate the same programs in the current fiscal year. • Base Salary and Fringe Benefit Adjustments – For FY 19, the County budget includes a decrease in the Virginia Retirement System (VRS) contribution rate from 11.47% to 10.38% and a decrease in unemployment insurance per position from $34 to $30. All other fringe benefit rates remain unchanged for FY 19. • ($24,270) in Revenue is Reduced and Transferred from General Services to the Animal Care and Adoption Center – This adjustment is made to consolidate and centralize all animal care revenues collected by the County. Prior to the construction of the new Animal Care and Adoption Center, the County collected $24,270 in animal license fees. These fees were reported in the General Services budget. Beginning in FY 19, all animal and pet related fees will be reported in the Animal Care and Adoption Center division (tab 340). • Internal Services Division Consolidation into the General Services Division – For FY 19, the Internal Services Division is combined into General Services. The Division functions are currently managed by General Services’ staff; therefore, this consolidation will improve operational and management efficiency by transferring $319,065 in expenditures and 2 FTE. Revenue representing amounts charged to individual divisions receiving services from the motor pool and garage of $91,700 is also reduced from the Internal Services Division. These funds will be shown as a reduction in expenditures in General Services, rather than revenue, GENERAL SERVICES : 188

GENERAL SERVICES resulting in a net increase in expenditures of $227,365 ($319,065 less $91,700).

ENGINEERING AND REGULATORY COMPLIANCE

About Engineering and Regulatory Compliance is responsible for Stormwater Management, Inspections, Soil Erosion and Sediment Control, and landfill management and remediation.

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.

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

Soil Erosion and Sediment Control This department implements the County’s Erosion and Sediment Control Ordinance as mandated by the Commonwealth of Virginia.

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 • Permits issued in FY 17: building, 383; trade, 686; erosion and sediment control, 77; and certificates of occupancy, 225. • Montgomery County partnered with the Montgomery County Public Schools to implement the ICC High School Technical Training Program, which helps prepare high school students for a future career path in the building inspection field. • The county is currently a MS4 permit holder. Continuing to focus on sustainability, the county launched the Water: Conservation, Protection, and Quality Educational Campaign. As a result, staff has participated in several stormwater educational ENGINEERING AND REGULATORY COMPLIANCE : 193

ENGINEERING AND REGULATORY COMPLIANCE outreach initiatives throughout the community. In addition, the staff completed the field reconnaissance and screening of 68 stormwater outfalls.

CHILDREN’S SERVICES ACT : 198

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 40 at-risk children and their families in FY 17.

Highlights • The District hired a new health director, Noelle Bissell, M.D., in February 2017. • The environmental health program continued grant funding to support voluntary enrollment in the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) standards program to improve the quality of restaurant inspections, this time as a mentor to another health district enrolling for the first time. The environmental health program also secured additional grant funding to support staff training opportunities and conduct a risk assessment on restaurants throughout the New River Valley. • The District formalized agreements with two local hospitals and their OB/GYN practices to provide pregnant women with consistent physician care throughout pregnancy, ensuring the healthiest start for the babies, and creating opportunities to enroll eligible hospital clients into health department programs. • Partnered with school boards in four of the District’s five localities to offer flu immunizations in schools, resulting in over 2,700 vaccinations given throughout the New River Valley, over half of which were to Montgomery County school students. • The New River Valley Health District’s WIC program had the highest percentage of breastfeeding infants in the Commonwealth. • Partnered on a Community Health Assessment, participating in opioid crisis response efforts, and providing health education at health fairs and other events.

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 • In conjunction with the state and federal government, efforts continue to conduct more eligibility determinations and case management services using online systems to continue to modernize work processes. • The agency continues to implement the principles set forth in the Learning Collaborative (LC) effort that began in 2014. The LC model changes the way in which the agency engages with families, advocates for clients, and collaborates with community partners. It uses Practice Profiles that operationalizes the Virginia Practice Model in measurable terms. The Practice Profiles cover 11 key skill sets across the child welfare continuum from child protective services to permanency. • As the beneficiary of private funds, the Social Services is working with the schools to identify children and families who display risk factors that typically indicate abuse and/or neglect in the children’s lives.

PARKS AND RECREATION

About The Parks and Recreation division provides quality, customer-valued recreation programs and facilities that engage participants and add value to the quality of life. Programming and facilities are offered in aquatics; athletics and team sports; youth, adult and senior wellness and education; outdoor recreation; tours; special events; and summer programs.

Aquatics The Frog Pond offers a safe and fun swimming environment and quality instruction for leisure and educational swimming programs for all ages, including infants. The Stroke and Turn Clinic teaches strokes and turns with a competitive edge for those who want to join a competitive swim team.

Athletics The Athletics department focuses on children ranging from pre-K to middle school and the approach that recreational sports should place more emphasis on educational and social benefits rather than competition. A strong focus is also placed on good sportsmanship from participants, parents and spectators. Each program is built around teaching the fundamentals and ensuring that every participant receives an enjoyable and lasting recreation experience in a safe and positive environment.

Community Recreation Programs Community Recreation Programs offer a diverse schedule of education/recreation-based activities for youth. Activities include martial arts, cooking, drawing, painting, and holiday-themed classes.

Outdoor Recreation This department provides diverse programming based on adventure, conservation, environmental education and experiential education with a focus on high adventure. Montgomery County was one of the first municipal departments to offer outdoor recreation programs in Southwest Virginia. PARKS AND RECREATION : 215

PARKS AND RECREATION Parks and Playgrounds Montgomery County has seven parks ranging from small pocket parks to linear biking and hiking trails to its largest 110 acre Mid-County Park. Swimming, picnicking, hiking, canoeing, kayaking, athletic ball fields, playgrounds, walking tracks and natural areas are all amenities that can be found at the parks. Private pool and shelter rentals are also available.

Senior Tours Senior Tours are designed and selected for active travelers 50 and older who like to explore regional interests and attractions while discovering the area’s well-kept secrets and making new friends. The one day excursions are planned to nearby cities, museums, sporting events, festivals, professional theater, and dining destinations.

Special Programs The Special Programs department provides a broad range of special events that can span from events for youth to events for the whole family, including creative Christmas themed programs and Rock the Pond summertime events held annually.

Summer Programs This department provides a broad range of services to the community.

OTHER AGENCIES

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 19 is $129,687, which is a decrease of $201,255. The agency received a total of $330,942 in the FY 18 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 19 is $129,687 or 24.96% 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 $129,687 for operations based on a three-year average usage and by setting aside the remaining $201,255 in a special reserve to address future facility upgrades. The savings from FY 16, FY 17, FY 18, and FY 19 provide $540,778 in total for the reserve to address the County’s share of renovation costs in the future. Locality

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 oustanding 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, lease revenue from the New River Valley Emergency Communications Regional Authority, and the General Fund. • Reallocation of Base Debt Service Resources – Debt service costs decreased by ($712,582). These savings were generated primarily from the 2011 VPSA bond refunding. The decrease consists of the following: • Savings on County Debt ($188,689) • Savings on School Debt ($523,893) • Total decrease ($712,582) Retaining these monies in the base budget accomplishes two objectives: • Allows unused monies at year end to be transferred to the capital projects funds for future projects, and • Provides future capacity to offset the increased debt service costs for new school construction. By retaining these funds in the base budget for future debt service along with $543,269 in savings from FY 18, the increased future debt service cost can be offset by over $1 million in the Debt Service Fund base budget.

County Capital Dollars earmarked in this division will be used in future years for County capital needs.

Base Budget Discussion The base budget is the estimated minimum cost for providing continued services/operations for each division/department. It is based on the prior year approved budget with adjustments. This budget shows how much it would cost in the next fiscal year to operate the same programs in the current fiscal year. • $1,162,500 is Included for Capital – The base budget includes $1,162,500 or one and 1/2 penny of the real estate tax rate for Fire and Rescue capital needs. • $35,000 is Included for General County Capital Infrastructure or Maintenance needs – The $35,000 was added during the FY 16 budget process. • $500,000 is Included for County Capital Maintenance Projects – $500,000 is included in the County Capital budget to provide an ongoing source of capital maintenance funding to cover the County’s existing buildings and infrastructure.

Currently the County does not have an ongoing source of capital maintenance funding to address its existing major infrastructure systems. • $390,000 is Included for the Parks and Recreation Projects – $390,000 was transferred from Special Contingencies in FY 18 to County Capital Projects in FY 19 to cover the cost of Parks and Recreation projects in the Eastern Montgomery and Auburn areas of the County. • $250,000 is Included to Address Information Technology Infrastructure Improvements Within County Facilities – $250,000 was transferred from Special Contingencies in FY 18 to County Capital Projects in FY 19 to address technology infrastructure issues including an upgrade to the County’s land development software.
