The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) has presented a Distinguished Budget Presentation Award to the Town of Westlake for its annual budget for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2010. In order to receive this award, a governmental unit must publish a budget document that meets program criteria as a policy document, as an operations guide, as a financial plan, and as a communication device. This award is valid for a period of one year only. We believe our current budget continues to conform to program requirements, and we are submitting it to GFOA to determine its eligibility for another award. vi

TRANSMITTAL LETTER

TRANSMITTAL LETTER The Transmittal Letter is written to the Town Council by the Town Manager and provides a highlevel preview of the Town Manager’s adopted budget. It contains hard numbers including the adopted tax rate and fund summaries as well as excerpts from the Town’s most recent citizen’s survey.


TRANSMITTAL LETTER September 12, 2011 Honorable Mayor and Town Council:

INTRODUCTION I am presenting, on behalf of the Staff Leadership Team for the Council’s consideration, the Town of Westlake’s FY 2011-12 budget totaling $20,093,931 (including $2,769,950 transfers in from fund balance for operating, debt service, capital projects, major maintenance and equipment replacement needs) for all funds. This represents a 21% decrease from the FY 2010-2011 estimated budget which is due to large transfers made in FY 2010-11 ($2,805,000 from General Fund and $1,205,000 from the Property Tax Reduction Fund) for various capital projects. If the above referenced transfers for capital projects in FY 2010-11 were removed for comparison purposes, the adopted FY 2011-12 budget would show a 16% increase over the FY 2010-11 estimated which is primarily due to expenditures for capital projects and Westlake Academy. This is a direct result of the inclusion in the financial summary section of the Westlake Academy’s FY 201112 operating expenditures and transfers out totaling $5,384,252. This will be the second municipal budget in which we have included Westlake Academy’s operating budget for purposes of presenting a complete picture of the Town’s financial position and the services we provide to our residents and stakeholders. As required by State law, this adopted FY 2011-12 municipal budget was prepared with the base assumption that the Town’s first priority is to have a balanced budget. Further, that it is a Town priority to fund and deliver basic, but high quality, municipal services to our residents and businesses. Service levels are in alignment with resident feedback regarding priorities from our 2011 Direction Finders (citizens’) survey results and the Town’s Strategic Plan. This adopted budget continues the development and use of a program approach begun in the prior fiscal year. A summary of the changes in Fund Balance from the projected beginning fund balances to the Adopted FY 2011-12 fund balances is as follows:

TRANSMITTAL LETTER As can be seen, the FY 2011-12 budget shows new and important positive changes and trends in fund balances for the Town’s major funds. These are: The Capital Projects Fund is planned to have a significant fund balance reduction due to our planned investment of cash to fund a portion of the Town Council’s approved Capital Improvement Program (CIP), i.e. the Town’s CIP is being implemented and capital projects are being built in accordance with the plan. Cash on hand was utilized in the CIP to reduce the amount of debt issued to fund the projects. Largely as a result of this capital spending, the combined overall fund balance for these six (6) major funds types has been reduced. The General Fund’s ending balance is projected to decrease due primarily to a transfer to the General Maintenance & Replacement Fund. Comparing revenues to expenditures, the General Fund is in good financial condition. This is due to: a) implementation in FY 2010-11 of a municipal ad valorem tax, b.) improved sales tax revenue performance over original budget, c.) reimbursement of indirect cost for Westlake Academy operation, and d.) simplifying our fund structure to bring Property Tax Reduction sales tax funds directly into the General Fund (instead of the transfer in from a separate fund as was the past practice). The ad valorem tax rate used in this adopted FY 2011-12 budget and compared to the rate used for FY 2010-11 is as follows:

M&O I&S Total

FY 10-11 Adopted Tax Rate

FY 11-12 Adopted Tax Rate

Variance

$ 0.15620 $ 0.00390 $ 0.16010

$ 0.13835 $ 0.01849 $ 0.15684

$ (0.01785) $ 0.01459 $ (0.00326)

In FY 2011-12, the General Fund utilizes an adopted municipal ad valorem tax that is 2% less than the FY 2010-11 rate of $0.1601 per $100 of assessed valuation. The adopted FY 2011-12 tax rate of $0.1568 is 14% less than the effective rate we are allowed to use by law in FY 2011-12 of $0.17944 per $100 of the assessed valuation. Although we have experienced a five percent (5%) decrease in the appraised values for the 2011 tax year, we are able to use this lower tax rate because of (a) modest on-going sales tax revenue improvement, and (b) one-time sales tax revenue in FY 2010-11 from the Deloitte University project. The Utility Fund shows a projected decrease in its fund balance by the end of FY 2011-12 because of scheduled utility capital projects for FY 2011-12 that will be cash funded. Water revenue for FY 2011-12 has been increased due to rising rates in wholesale water costs (10.6% increase from City of Fort Worth effective 10-1-11) and additional retail water sales. Wholesale sewer treatment costs are also forecast to rise for the Town (11.5% increase from Trinity River Authority effective 12-1-11). Both these wholesale water and sewer costs will be passed along to our retail customers per our rate ordinance adopted last year by the Town Council. Special Revenue funds project a decrease in total fund balance in the amount of $139,061 by the end of FY 2011-12. This reduction is related to the Visitors Association Fund where

funds will be transferred to the General Fund to cover costs related to the new Communications Department.

Internal Service funds show a projected increase of $130,630 due to the transfer of funds into two major maintenance and equipment replacement funds (Utility and General) to accumulate funds for various repair and replacement items.

FY 2011-12 BUDGET THEME: “INVESTING IN OUR FUTURE” Beginning in FY 2009-10, as the nation’s economic recession reduced Westlake’s primary revenue source of sales tax, we began using a thematic approach to bring focus to the major issue or issues for that particular budget. That year’s budget theme was “Critical Challenges, Critical Choices”, intending to signal the need for meaningful community-wide dialogue as to how Westlake would come to grips with its vision, as well as an associated financial future. We fostered this dialogue using primarily meetings in every Westlake neighborhood, our electronic newsletter, email blasts, focus group meetings, and placing extensive financial information about the Town’s financial sustainability challenges on our website. In FY 2010-11 the budget theme was “Securing the Vision”. The focus of that budget’s theme was to progress from the FY 2009-10 discussions, and seek viable solutions to Westlake’s challenge of becoming financially sustainable. Ultimately, this resulted in the Town Council adopting a $.15684 per $100 of assessed valuation municipal property tax rate. This is the lowest property tax rate of any city in our area, but it stabilized the General Fund’s downward fund balance trend and has allowed us to begin dealing with our road infrastructure. Having “Secured the Vision”, the theme for the adopted 2011-12 budget is “Investing in Our Future”. Selection of this budget theme is intended to reflect that with the hard choices having been made in FY 2010-11, we can now use the resources available to reinvest in our community to maintain Westlake in a manner that is fiscally conservative, responsible, and consistent with its vision, mission, and values. To achieve this focus of “Investing in Our Future”, the adopted FY 2011-12 budget reflects three areas of major emphasis. They are:

Investment in Service Delivery Sustainability

$700,000

Vision Points Impacted:  We are Leaders  Service Excellence Fund transfer of $530,000 to the General Maintenance & Replacement Fund for the following: o New ambulance: $200,000 o Replacement of Westlake Academy and other Town building HVAC, heaters, security camera, etc. as needed: $68,320 o Trail repairs: $10,000 o Information technology equipment replacement $27,800 o Westlake Academy physical plant maintenance and building refurbishment: $112,400 o Balance to serve as funding contribution towards fire pumper truck replacement purchase in FY2015-16

FY 2010-11: A GOOD YEAR, A YEAR OF PROGRESS Certainly the purpose of this adopted budget is to have a forward focus on the upcoming 2011-12 fiscal year. However, it is also important to recognize the strategic priorities and milestones achieved by the Town of Westlake organization during FY 2010-11. During FY 2010-11 the following milestones and strategic priorities were achieved: Major progress continued on construction of the $300 million Deloitte University project which is on schedule and set to open in the fall of 2011. This is the largest private construction project now underway in Texas. For the third consecutive year, the Town continued its “Westlake Windows” initiative for transparent government with citizen outreach meetings held in every Westlake neighborhood. The initiative was expanded to Westlake Academy parents residing in the Academy’s secondary boundaries. The Town’s Leadership Team was realigned to create a full-time Director of Communications & Community Affairs position. This was accomplished by adjusting existing positions (i.e. no new positions were created) so to bring even more focus to the function of outreach and communication.

4


TRANSMITTAL LETTER Work began on revamping the Town’s Five (5) Year Strategic Plan and tying it to a Balanced Scorecard, outcome measures, and program budgeting as well as reviewing and updating the Town’s vision, mission, and value statements. In conjunction, the Town conducted its third annual DirectionFinders citizens’ survey for comparison to prior years’ surveys, establishing multi-year performance measures, as well as to help guide the adopted budget preparation process. Implementation of the Town Council’s approved Five (5) Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) was begun. This CIP covers mostly street improvement projects, allowing us to re-invest in the Town’s street infrastructure on a planned basis. Perhaps most significantly, for the first time the Town’s CIP was adequately funded via a combination of cash-on-hand and debt issuance of $2.2 million in Certificates of Obligation. Construction progressed on the State’s $15 Million Phase 1 FM 1938 (Precinct Line Rd) Improvement Project. This will be a major north/south arterial roadway with a positive impact on mobility for the region, our residents, and employees of Westlake businesses. It will also impact future business attraction and economic development in Westlake. Estimated completion date is September 2012. Phase 1 of the Stagecoach Hills Water Distribution System Improvements Project was completed. The Town entered into a Development Agreement with Hillwood Properties for $4.6 million in street improvements to sections of Dove and Ottinger Roads. Improvements to portions of Ottinger Road are currently underway. The Town continued to receive recognition for the transparency and high quality of its financial reporting, receiving the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting, as well as the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award from the Governmental Finance Officers Association (GFOA) for both its FY 2010-11 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR), also known as the annual audit, and the FY 2010-11 budget. According to Town Council/Board of Trustee direction, we began a two fiscal year phased approach of placing Westlake Academy’s operating budget on a full cost basis. The first phase, completed in FY 2010-11, moved all direct operating costs for maintenance of the campus from the municipal budget to the Academy’s operating budget. Westlake’s second gas well pad site was successfully drilled in Solana under the standards and requirements of the Town’s Oil and Gas Drilling/Production Ordinance adopted in 2009. New retail growth began to occur along the Town’s western boundary at the northwest corner of SH170 and SH377 with construction commencing on a new Quik Trip convenience store and a Centennial Liquors store. Westlake received national recognition from Forbes Magazine as the wealthiest community in the United States, and the Dallas Morning News ran a front page story on Westlake’s growth and attraction as a high-end residential community. The Town’s open enrollment charter school, Westlake Academy, finished its eighth year of operation. It was a “banner year” with the Academy having its largest enrollment ever and the second graduating class had an 86% success rate in obtaining the prestigious International Baccalaureate diploma. The 32 member class collectively garnered approximately $4.2 million in scholarships and grants.

TRANSMITTAL LETTER PREPARING AND “SCRUBBING” THE FY 2011-12 BUDGET Certain assumptions, parameters, and approaches were utilized as the FY 2011-12 budget was prepared consistent with those used for the prior two fiscal years’ budgets. These were: a.) to continue to easily track cost increases as they relate to maintaining or increasing service levels, b.) identify use of fund balances and inter-fund transfers, c.) delineate the amount for employee compensation increases, and d.) understand the approach used for revenue estimating. Also, the Town Council’s financial policies (contained in the appendix of the budget), were followed in preparation of this adopted budget for 2011-12. Highlights of these approaches and parameters are: Maintained minimum fund balances to exceed Town Council policy requirements (90 day fund balance) Conservative revenue estimating that identified one-time and on-going revenues. Increased focus on more intense “drill down” analysis to better determine our actual ongoing sales tax revenue stream has been made for this upcoming fiscal year. Estimated expenditures for current levels of service in FY 2011-12 were achieved by: a) Adjusting for actual spending in FY 2010-11 b) Deducting one-time FY 2010-11 expenditures to create the FY 2011-12 adopted base budget. Any anticipated cost increases in the current level of service, due to inflation and other cost increases, were identified and kept separate from the current level of service base budget in the form of “current service level adjustments” (SLA’s). Allocating resources to provide an average one percent (1%) market pay adjustment for municipal employees at a total annual cost of $24,928. The majority of the Town’s municipal positions continue to have associated pay levels that are far below the market average for similar municipal positions in our immediate area. Some positions are as much as 40% below the market average. Budgeting funds of $45,000 for one-time performance pay increases (i.e. they do not get built into employee base pay, thus becoming an on-going cost). These funds would not be administered until mid-fiscal year, but only if overall revenue performance shows it is prudent to do so, and would be performance based on employee evaluation. Service levels budgeted are based on the current level of service, with the exception of the addition of the equivalent of .5 positions in the General Fund. This is comprised of part of two new positions needed primarily for Westlake Academy operations. Twenty five percent (25%) of an IT Technician necessary for school operations (to replace an IT Technician going into the class room as a teacher) will be expensed to the municipal budget (for services rendered to municipal operations. Also, twenty-five percent (25%) of a new Maintenance Technician position for Westlake Academy operations is adopted to be expensed to the municipal budget (for services that position will be providing Town operations). Per Council Direction, the second phase of placing Westlake Academy’s operating budget on a full cost basis is addressed in this adopted budget. The second phase of this initiative involves the Academy assuming $302,900 of indirect costs for support services provided by the Town government to successfully operate Westlake Academy. These indirect costs cover managerial oversight, human resource services, finance and accounting, risk management, information technology, and facilities maintenance. The $302,900 amount

6


TRANSMITTAL LETTER reflects $325,000 of indirect cost less $22,100 which represents the twenty-five percent (25%) transfer to the Academy for the new IT Tech and the Maintenance Technician positions. All costs for base budgets as well as service level adjustments due to cost increases/inflation were “scrubbed” by extensive review and analysis by the Town Manager and Finance Director. Programs of service were extensively analyzed and discussed in budget review sessions with each Leadership Team member, the Town Manager, and Director of Finance. This ensures maximum efficiency, effectiveness, and utilization of both additional and requested financial resources. The sustainability of the funding request, as well as the economy realities we currently face, were a primary concern during this review process.

GOVERNING AND MANAGING FOR OUTCOMES Three fiscal years ago, the Town began moving its leadership and management systems to a framework utilizing a more program based budget designed to link desired outcomes with budgeted resources and accountability for results. This FY 2011-12 budget represents the next step in this continuous improvement process. This budget document utilizes a systemic framework designed to link together critical governance and management decision making tools called “Governing and Managing for Outcomes” and is designed to integrate: Vision driven strategic planning, strategy mapping, and outcome based performance indicators Five (5) year financial forecasting, budgeting, and performance measurement linked to strategic priorities, objectives, and outcomes to ensure a long term approach that provides financial sustainability Aligning resources to prioritized outcomes Reporting to monitor progress in outcome achievement and accountability for results Utilizing citizen surveys to gauge service satisfaction levels with Town services and resident willingness to pay for those services Maintaining core services Funding and implementing a five (5) year capital improvement plan This budget focuses on the next twelve months of the Town’s future. However, the Council’s initiative to pursue a strategic planning approach to the Town’s governance is critical to providing the Council, and the community, with a multi-year focus that couples strategic priority setting with good financial stewardship decisions that achieve the long-term vision set by the Council for Westlake. The vision, values, and mission that that drive this adopted budget are:

MISSION STATEMENT “On behalf of the citizens, the mission of the Town of Westlake is to be a one-of-a-kind community that blends our rural atmosphere with our vibrant culture and metropolitan location.”

8


TRANSMITTAL LETTER GUIDEPOSTS ALONG THE WAY: THERE IS STILL WORK TO DO In addition to using our vision, values, and mission statements to guide our budget process, we also utilize our citizens’ perceptions of our service quality and the issues facing Westlake to help shape the adopted budget. With that in mind, the following excerpted charts on key points of feedback from this year’s DirectionFinders citizens’ survey tell us the following: First, how are we doing as a service organization?

Second, what is important to our citizens when it comes to their Town services?

9


TRANSMITTAL LETTER Third, what is the priority order of Town services based on our citizens’ importance-satisfaction ratings?

Finally, how do we compare on service satisfaction to previous years’ surveys?

1 0


TRANSMITTAL LETTER We can see not only what our citizens’ priorities are, but how well we are doing. And, we have work to do in 2011-12. While the latest survey results are good, there are some areas we have declined in that we need to address as an organization. This may include obtaining additional, more detailed information in “drill down” surveys on those areas where we have lost ground. Overall, this budget reflects these citizen priorities and perceptions.

Excerpt from Five Year Forecast (General Fund Section)

CLOSING THOUGHTS FOR FY 2011-12 This budget transmittal message is different than the ones I have written for the two prior fiscal years. While the nation’s economy is still suffering, certainly Westlake, like all communities, has challenges ahead. However, with the steps the Town Council courageously took in FY 2010-11, we are in a much better position today than we were twelve months ago at this time in terms of the Town’s financial sustainability. It has not only improved our financial position, but most important, it now also gives us the ability to reinvest in our Town’s infrastructure and services in a prudent, responsible way that can ensure Westlake’s vision to be a unique, one-of-a-kind community with an extraordinary quality of life for the long-term. Even with this improvement in our financial position, the Town staff is acutely aware that the Town of Westlake does not create wealth, but instead only spends public dollars collected on behalf of our citizens. We are stewards. We exist as a municipal corporation for one reason and one reason only: to prioritize and deliver the best services possible with the resources provided to achieve an exceptional quality of life. I would like to, once again, point out what Osborne and Hutchinson observed regarding citizens’ view of funding government:

11


TRANSMITTAL LETTER “…they (citizens) want government to provide what only the public sector can provide…But they want their money’s worth. They want value for dollars. When they can’t get it, they often opt for tax cuts and private services. When they do get value from public institutions, however, they are often willing to invest in them.” This is a challenge the Staff and Town Council takes very seriously, one that we pursue with vigor every day. High commendation is due to the Staff Leadership Team for their work on this adopted budget. The key to our organizational success lies in having an effective Council-Staff team. Additional recognition and thanks are due to Director of Finance Debbie Piper, Management Intern Scott Dixon, and Finance Assistant Jaymi Ford, for their efforts in assembling this budget document. It takes long hours to make this not only a financial document, but a policy document that is easy for our citizens to read and understand. I appreciate their dedication and the effort they have invested in this process. Finally, I also extend thanks and appreciation to the Westlake Town Council. Your countless volunteer hours, invested in governing Westlake to make it the best community we can be, is critical for our success. Town Staff appreciates the leadership and direction you provide us on behalf of our citizens. Sincerely yours,

Thomas E. Brymer Town Manager/Superintendent Westlake Academy Resources Cited Osborne, David, and Hutchinson, Peter, The Price of Government, ” Getting the Results We Need in an Age of Permanent Fiscal Crisis, 2004.

TRANSMITTAL LETTER

BUDGET OVERVIEW & FRAMEWORK This section attempts to help explain the meaning behind the numbers which are presented in this budget document. It gives perspective to the Town’s budgeting process, basis of budgeting and accounting, how the budget is amended and the fund accounting system.

14


BUDGET OVERVIEW AND FRAMEWORK The Town of Westlake’s 2012 fiscal year begins on October 1, 2011 and ends September 30, 2012. It provides the framework to implement the Town’s vision, mission and value statements as set out by the Town Council. The Town’s annual budget is prepared in the context of a five (5) year financial forecast. The adopted budget is submitted to the Council approximately thirty to forty-five days before the beginning of the fiscal year for their consideration. The Town’s budget is allocated by fund. It is designed to provide a clear picture of adopted Town spending, allocation of financial resources, and priorities as well as how they are set to carry out the policy direction of the Council. In addition to a fund format, the budget is the beginning of efforts to show the allocation of the Town’s resources in concert with the Town’s strategic planning efforts. A “bottom-up” approach is used to solicit input from the staff Leadership Team as to their operations’ needs with an emphasis on: • • • •

Identifying costs to provide the current level of services. Identifies additional cost increases needed to maintain the current level of service. Additional resources necessary to provide new or increased levels of service. Delineating changes in fund balance levels for each fund.

The Town of Westlake staff is pleased to present the 2011-12 annual operating budget, which is the product of many hours of preparation as well as a response to ever-changing internal and external influences. As in previous years, efforts have been made to control expenditures while continuing to deliver an excellent level of service to our citizens. Concentrated efforts have been made to produce a document that clearly illustrates the uses of Town resources in a format that may be utilized as a resource tool by the Town Council, Town staff, and the citizens of Westlake. Our budget preparation process continues to be refined on an annual basis, operating within clearly defined budget preparation guidelines. The following procedures, which are guided by generally accepted budgeting practices, has been established: 1.

The annual operating budget presents appropriations of expenditures and estimates of revenues for all local government funds. These revenues include sales and use taxes, ad valorem property tax, citation revenue, franchise taxes, mixed beverage taxes, license and permit fees, development fees, sales of printed material, interest income, water and sewer utility revenue, duct bank leases, and miscellaneous revenues.

2.

The annual operating budget illustrates expenditures, anticipated revenues, and the estimated impact on reserves.

3.

Budgets for each department are broken down into specific cost components, including payroll/salaries, payroll related & benefits, supplies, services, insurance, repair & maintenance, rent & utilities, economic development incentives, and capital outlay.

4.

Revenue projections are prepared for each revenue source based on an analysis of historical revenue trends and current fiscal conditions.

5.

The budget process includes a multi-year projection of required capital improvements.

15


BUDGET OVERVIEW AND FRAMEWORK 6.

Goals and objectives have been developed for each department and are incorporated into the evaluation of employees and performance of the organization.

7.

A budget message summarizing local financial conditions and principal budget issues is presented to the governing council along with the annual budget.

The layout and organization of the budget is designed to help the reader locate both financial and non-financial information in a timely fashion. The General Fund is divided into twelve departments. Each department has the following information included: • Description of the fund and it’s program’s trends, goals, highlights, measures and Vision Point Strategic Plan Impacts • Summary of Employee Staffing and Expenditures • Program budgeting for the Department The Fund Sections are broken down between Special Revenue Funds, Debt Service Fund, Enterprise Funds, Internal Service Funds, and Capital Projects Funds. Each Fund contains the following information: • “Fund Overview” describing the function of the fund and explaining the variances between the revenues and expenditures of FY 2010-11 and FY 2011-12 • “Program Summary” of revenues and expenditures. Also included are sections detailing the Capital Improvement Plan and Long-Term Planning. The final four components include a Program Budgeting section, Community Profile, excerpts from Westlake Academy FY 2011-12 adopted budget and an Appendix section. The Community Profile contains historical and current information regarding the Town of Westlake. The Program Budgeting Measures section includes a summary of what the Town is trying to achieve along with detailed program costs, goals and objectives of each program identified by the Town’s leadership team. The appendices section consists of a Glossary of Budget Terms, the Town’s Fiscal and Budgetary Policy, Investment Policy, and the Town ordinance related to the adoption of the budget. The budget contains financial data spanning two fiscal years. The current budget year ending September 30, 2011 is presented in its original adopted form, as well as an amended estimate. Actual totals for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2010 are also presented for comparison.

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING/BUDGETING The accounts of the Town are organized on the basis of funds, each of which is considered to be a separate accounting entity. All governmental fund types are budgeted and accounted for on a Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (GAAP) basis for financial statement presentations. The Governmental Fund types use a financial resources measurement focus and utilize the modified accrual basis for accounting and budgeting. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recorded when susceptible to accrual, meaning that it is measurable and available. Available revenues are defined as those funds that are collectable within the current period, or collectable within a timeframe to pay liabilities of the current period. Expenditures generally represent a decrease in net

16


BUDGET OVERVIEW AND FRAMEWORK financial resources and are recorded when a measurable fund liability is incurred. In some instances, such as the incurrence of long-term debt, expenditures related to interest on the debt is recorded in the period that it is due. The Proprietary Fund types are accounted and budgeted for on a cost of services, or “Capital Maintenance” measurement focus using the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recognized when incurred. For purposes of this budget presentation, depreciation is not displayed and capital expenditures and bond principal payments are shown as uses of funds.

Governmental Fund Types Governmental fund types are those through which most governmental functions of the Town are financed. The acquisition, use, and balances of the Town’s expendable financial resources and the related liabilities (except those accounted for in the Proprietary and Fiduciary Fund types) are accounted for through Governmental Fund types. Descriptions of each fund contained in the Town’s budget are as follows: 1.

The General Fund is the general operating fund of the Town. It is used to account for all Town revenues and expenditures except those required to be accounted for in other funds. Major functions financed by the General Fund include Administration, Building & Code Compliance, Fire/EMS, Public Works, Facilities/Grounds Maintenance, Finance and Human Resources, Parks and Recreation, Information Technology, and Engineering. Sources of revenue include sales and use taxes, development fees and permits, court revenue, and franchise taxes.

2.

Westlake’s Visitors Association Fund receives its primary funding from a 7% hotel occupancy tax adopted by the Town of Westlake in FY 1999-2000. Proceeds from the hotel occupancy tax are required to be used in accordance with statutory parameters including the promotion of travel and tourism in the Town of Westlake.

3.

The Economic Development Fund was set up to maintain all receipts and disbursements of agreements between the Town and various corporations for economic development. There was confusion regarding the additional revenues being recorded in the General Fund and offset by expenditures. These balances offset to zero but skewed the analysis of each. The Town is hoping this fund will create more transparency to the public regarding these receipts and payments.

4.

The 4B Economic Development Corporation Fund is a local option established under the Texas local government code. 4B funds are generated from a ½ cent sales tax levy and proceeds are used for debt service.

5.

The Westlake Property Tax Reduction Sales Tax Fund formerly received its funding from a ½ cent sales tax levy that was formerly earmarked for the 4A Economic Development Corporation. The purpose of this fund was to reduce local property tax rates throughout Texas by providing cities with an additional unrestricted revenue source. These funds may be used for general Town expenditures, capital projects, or debt service. This fund was closed at year-end of fiscal year 2010-2011 and will now be recorded in the General Fund.

17


BUDGET OVERVIEW AND FRAMEWORK 6.

The Lone Star Public Facilities Corporation was founded in 1996 and was designed “to provide for the acquisition, construction, rehabilitation, repair, equipping, furnishing and placement in service of public facilities in an orderly, planned manner and at the lowest possible borrowing costs.” The ideas was to “acquire, through the issuance of installment sale obligations, office buildings located within the State of Texas but outside the boundaries of Westlake, whose tenants will be limited to those entities which are qualifying tenants under applicable federal income tax law so that the interest payable with respect to the installment sale obligations will be exempt from federal income taxation.” There has been no activity in the fund for several years.

7.

The Debt Service Fund is established to account for, and the payment of, general long-term debt principal and interest. This fund provides a clearer accounting of ongoing debt obligations compared to operating budgets. The Debt Service Fund is used to make scheduled payments for all bond issues associated with the building of the Civic Campus as well as a partial refunding of the 2002 series and various street/trail projects.

8.

The Capital Projects Fund tracks the infrastructure and building projects (other than those financed by proprietary fund types), funded with general operating transfers, intergovernmental revenue, bond funds and other special funding methods. Capital expenditures are clearly identified by their respective funding sources, and projects are shown in a clear, concise format.

9.

The Arts & Sciences Center Fund tracks the monies related to the new building to be located on the Westlake Academy Civic Campus. Construction of the building was completed in FY 09/10 and the fund has been closed.

Proprietary Fund Types Proprietary fund types operate in a manner similar to private business utilizing an accrual basis of accounting.

Enterprise Funds Account for operations of governmental facilities operated in a manner similar to commercial enterprises where the intent is to recover, in whole or in part, the costs and expenses of providing goods and services to the public. Revenues are typically generated through usage fees based on individual demands of each customer. Enterprise funds may be used when the governing body has determined that periodic determination of revenue earned, expenses incurred, and/or net income is appropriate for capital maintenance, public policy, management control, accountability, or other purposes. 1.

The Cemetery Fund includes all operations associated with the 5.5 acre cemetery located on J.T. Ottinger Road which was acquired during the year ended September 2008.

2.

The Utility Fund accounts for water, wastewater and telecommunications conveyance (duct bank) services for the residents of the Town. All activities necessary to provide such services are accounted for in the Fund, including administration, operations, maintenance, financing and related debt service, and billing and collection. Additionally, the Town collects monthly solid collection fees in this fund which are paid to the Town’s solid waste franchisee.

18


BUDGET OVERVIEW AND FRAMEWORK Internal Service Funds Accounts for services and/or commodities furnished by a designated program to other programs within the Town. Funds include the following: 1. The Vehicle & Equipment Replacement Fund (V&E) formerly provided a mechanism for long-term repair and replacement of vehicles and equipment. The V&E Fund receives planned portions of revenue from the General Fund to set aside for future vehicle and equipment repairs and replacement. This fund has been closed and the remaining fund balance has been transferred to General – Maintenance & Replacement Fund. 2.

The General Maintenance & Replacement Fund (GMR) is an account to offset the future costs of repair and/or replacement of large capital assets due to age and use. Contributions from the Town’s General Fund are transferred on an annual basis; resulting in a cash balance which mitigates the cash flow impact of large maintenance and capital replacement costs.

3.

The Utility Maintenance & Replacement Fund (UMR) is an account to offset the future costs of repair and/or replacement of large capital assets due to age and use. Contributions from the Town’s Utility Fund are transferred on an annual basis; resulting in a cash balance which mitigates the cash flow impact of large maintenance and capital replacement costs.

BUDGET OVERVIEW AND FRAMEWORK THE BUDGET PROCESS The Town Manager submits the budget to the Town Council. The Town’s fiscal year begins each year on October 1st and ends on September 30th of the following calendar year. Prior to the beginning of the fiscal year, the Town Manager must submit a proposed budget, which includes: • A budget message • A consolidation statement of anticipated revenues and proposed expenditures for all funds • General fund resources in detail • Special fund resources in detail • A summary of proposed expenditures by department and activity • Detailed estimates of expenditures shown separately to support the proposed expenditure • A description of all bond issues outstanding • A schedule of the principal and interest payments of each bond issue The proposed revenues and expenditures must be compared to prior year revenues and expenditures. The budget preparation process begins early in the calendar year with the establishment of overall town goals, objectives, and analysis of current year operations compared to expenditures. Budget policies and procedures are reviewed at the same time to reduce errors and omissions. In May, the Finance Department prepares such items as budget forms and instructions for estimating revenues and expenditures. Department heads submit proposed baseline expenditures for current service levels and any additional one-time or ongoing request they may have for their department. Meetings are subsequently held with the Town Manager, the Finance Director and each department head. After all funding levels are established and agreed upon; the proposed budget is presented by the Town Manager to the Town Council. A public hearing on the budget is conducted in accordance with state and local law. This meeting is held after the Council has reviewed the budget during a workshop. The Town Council approves a level of expenditure (or appropriation) for each fund to go into effect on October 1st, prior to the expenditure of any Town funds for that budget year.

BUDGET AMENDMENT PROCESS The Town Manager may request that the current year budget be amended. In this process, the Town Manager will review the documentation and draft an ordinance to formally amend the current budget. This ordinance is presented to the Town Council for consideration. Following the consideration of the proposed amendment, the Town Council will vote on the amendment ordinance. If the amendment is approved, the necessary budget changes are then made. All budget amendments will be approved by the Town Council prior to the expenditure of funds in excess of the previously authorized budgeted amounts within each department.

20


BUDGET OVERVIEW AND FRAMEWORK FINANCIAL POLICIES The Town of Westlake is committed to financial management through integrity, prudent stewardship, planning, accountability, full disclosure and communication.

GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

FIRE/Emergency Services Strategic Vision Points We are Leaders Service Excellence

Program Description The Fire/EMS Department provides for the public safety needs of the Town via a variety of programs and services. The majority of these services are Fire and Emergency Medical Services (EMS) related but also includes hazardous materials mitigation, fire prevention and public education. Many civic organizations also benefit from these types of services. Business organizations have benefited through the training activities and inspection/prevention programs that the Department provides. The Department will continue to provide the most efficient method of delivering the traditional services – Fire Protection, Emergency Medical Services, Fire Inspections and Public Education while continuing to seek further avenues of outreach into the community.

Trends The level of activity can be categorized into four main areas: Emergency Operations, Training, Routine Activities and Activity Levels Public Orientated Activities. 500 Emergency Operation trends showed a slight increase in total 400 calls. This is mainly attributed to 300 the freeze during February. There were approximately forty 200 incidents generated from that 100 weather event. EMS incidents are up slightly this year. Deloitte 0 University has increased the call FY 08/09 FY 09/10 FY 10/11 FY 11/12 volume by twenty-nine as of Estimated Projected EMS FIRE August 26, 2011. Personnel continue to take advantage of joint training exercises and contracts which reduces cost and increases familiarity with personnel and equipment of our mutual aid agencies. Specialized training targets firefighter development that enhances our current services through state certification levels. Ongoing efforts to increase public involvement through public education, relations and services. Daily activities and work details are the most time consuming activities due to their nature. These activities are necessary to maintain the proper condition and operation of the equipment. The illustration below demonstrates man hours for overall activity trends.

GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

Public Works Strategic Vision Points A Sense of Place We are Leaders Service Excellence

Program Description The Public Works Department is responsible for: the operation, maintenance, repair, and installation of the Town’s traffic signs, signals, roadway markings, and 10.8 miles of street pavement and storm drainage; maintaining public records and regulatory requirements; Public Works also assists other departments, the Academy, and volunteer groups as needed:  Setting up for community events  Providing traffic control devices for DPS use  Supervision of community service workers  Provide back-up coordinating/inspecting work for facility maintenance

Trends The Town’s population has continued to increase over the last several years. This rise has also generated a significant increase in the demand for Public Works staff’s time. The increasing population is accustomed to receiving basic public services that we are minimally equipped to handle. FM 1938 construction demands an increasingly amount of staff time as the project progresses and Town improvements are built. SH 114/170 construction continues to demand more of staff time in our effort to plan enhancements to the interchange and corridor.

Program Broad Goals Maintain streets and shoulders in safe travelable condition. Maintain accurate inventory of streets and their current condition. Manage all Public Works capital projects to be on schedule and within budget

Program Description The Town of Westlake will plan for and provide facilities to enhance present and future community and educational programs and endeavors. Long-range plans should include: maintenance, renovation, construction of facilities as related to civic use and educational programs – efficient facilities meeting program needs. Westlake Civic Campus facilities should be available to the community. The Town should develop cooperative projects with the community and agencies.

Trends The civic campus is in it’s eighth year and maintenance costs of exterior, landscaping and interior systems will continue to increase. August 2009, the 8,400 sf. ft. Sam & Margaret Lee Arts & Sciences Center opened, which includes two science rooms and one art room, six offices, conference room and breakout space. The Arts and Sciences Center parking lot expansion was complete in 2010 which added 128 paking spaces to the campus. The temporary fire station 14’ X 60’ mobile home was replaced with a used 40’ X 60” obile home that was donated in January 2011 by WB Texas Resort Communities, LP. In Feburary 2011 North Texas experienced five consective days of temperatures not getting above 32 degrees. A three-inch fire sprikler line froze up in the storage closet located on the first floor of the gym building which caused over $400,000 in damage to the basement level of the gym building. Damage included gym floor, server room and server equipment, dining hall, downstairs restrooms, performance hall and elevator shaft. All damage was covered by insurance. With the increase in Academy students for the FY 11-12 school year, the following remodeling projects were completed; PYP art room turned into a second Dining Hall, MYP storage room and copy room converted to a MYP faculty breakroom, expanded the nurses station, added 60 new lockers and installed additional shelving in 60 current lockers. Jacob Engineering completed a traffice study for the pick up drop off flow for both MYP and PYP. A master facility plan was completed for Westlake Academy in spring 2011 by Peter Hayes. This plan included an increase in the student populatin to 1,000 plus and five/six addtional classroom buildings including a Town Hall on the current 23 acres. This study was funded by the M.R. Evelyn Hudson Foundation.

Trends Finance and accounting are core functions that often expand in direct correlation with an organization that continues to expand Increases in the number of Academy employees, the number of utility customers, and the number of necessary fiduciary processes over past five years Plans for continued expansion at Westlake Academy combined with residential population increases and economic development will continue to challenge the Finance Department’s ability to maintain the highest levels of service and quality with existing staffing. The expansion of the Westlake Academy facility (Arts & Sciences Center) required additional accounting processes during its construction period, i.e. monthly distributions to multiple contracting firms as well as accounting for retainage payments

GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

Parks & Recreation Strategic Vision Points A Sense of Place We are Leaders We are a Caring Community Service Excellence

Program Description The Park and Recreation Department maintains a 39.5 acre park and open spaces, which includes Glenwyck farms, Terra Bella sub-division and Parchman property. The trees along roadways and cemetery are maintained to ensure the safety of the drivers and pedestrians. Additional trails and pedestrian underpass will be added with the development of FM 1938 and the Deloitte project located on Dove road. Westlake Academy and the park, located in Glenwyck Farms, provide the facilities and space for recreation use to the public. The park at Glenwyck Farms and the Academy campus hosts sporting events, facility rentals, Arbor Days, Bandana Bonanza, Christmas Tree Lighting and Decoration Day.

Trends The population growth of the Town of Westlake has increased the need for a park and trail system and services Conditions of landscaping on town owned properties have been impacted as a result of the drought in 10-11. This places more pressure on budgets for replacement trees, sod, removal of dead trees, etc. The 2011 Arbor Days event was moved to April to coincide with national Arbor Day month. On April 25, 2011, 2011 the Town received its eleventh (11th) Tree City USA award from the National Arbor Day Foundation. In March of 2011, two park benches and trash cans were added to the Glenwyck Farms park. The Community Storehouse leased the Academy buildings for three weeks in July of 2010 and 2011 in order to sponsor a reading camp for 1st and 2nd grade students of the surrounding communities. Benchmark, who is the service provider for Deloitte University rented the Academy for three weeks in June 2011. Starting in August of 2011, the NFL Play 60 group is renting the sports fields on Tuesday and Thursdays until October 2011. Tuesdays There have been three Eagle Scout projects completed in the Cemetery in 2011 with a fourth scheduled in the fall of 2011.

GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

Parks & Recreation In the fall of 2011, Boy Scout Troop 170 is partnering with the Town to relocate their wood lot to the Parchman property in exchange for cleaning up the cemetery and parks. The Westlake Historical Preservation Society is planning the first 9-11 event in the Glenwyck Farms park and a car show at the Solana Sports club in the fall of 2011.

Program Broad Goals Provide park and common open spaces adequate in size and condition to serve our citizens. Use the park system to preserve and protect environmentally significant areas for public enjoyment and education. Maintain, secure and manage parks in a manner which encourages their appropriate use. Maximize public/private partnerships to assist in all aspects of parks and recreation planning and development.

2011 Highlights Four Eagle Scout projects completed in the cemetery. Received eleventh annual Tree City USA award. Continue to host trail planning meetings with Southlake, Keller, Roanoke, Trophy Club. Moved the 2011 Arbor Day event to April. Presented a draft of the Park Land Dedication in July 2011 to the Town Council.

2011 Goals and Objectives Continue to update the Town’s Master Plan to include connecting the entire park system with a combination of pocket parks, neighborhood and community parks and Veloweb regional trail system. Work with Planning and Development to coordinate park land acquisition with long range growth and development planning. Enhance and expand the linear park system along creeks and roadways. Limit usage within environmentally sensitive areas to passive recreation. Continue updating existing parks & facilities standards and guidelines. Recognize that parks and recreation needs evolve over time with changes in the population. Design parks and open spaces that are durable, easily maintained and are not detrimental to surrounding uses. Utilize partnerships, wherever appropriate, to help develop, manage and maintain parks and recreation facilities.

GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

Information Technology Strategic Vision Points Service Excellence

Program Description Information Technology works with the Town Manager to establish IT policy, evaluate and recommend technology solutions for specific departmental needs and provide administrative support to network infrastructure, systems, and staff.

Trends Information Technology is in a state of perpetual change, and policies, strategies and system implementation must accommodate these realities. Network and systems security require ongoing analysis and adjustments to meet emerging threats. Equipment must be updated to remain reliable and secure. Data communication links between locations require evaluation of alternate information storage and backup process to ensure acceptable performance.

Program Broad Goals Provide support to all Town departments through the design, deployment, and maintenance of systems to support departmental objectives. Provide systems administration by maintaining IT systems with prudent provisions for security, data archiving, and disaster recovery.

2010 Highlights Designed and implemented a new network infrastructure design, with emphasis on redundancy, disaster recovery, and reduction of downtime in the event of loss. Deployed improved data backup measures for server data and workstation disaster recovery. Procured over 100 additional computers to meet the increased demands of Westlake Academy students in the 2011-2012 school year. Completed the replacement of all IT network systems destroyed or damaged in the February 6, 2011 flood of the gymnasium building. Upgraded workstations with new hardware and operating systems. Deployed additional network security measures.

GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

Information Technology Reduced costs by keeping outsourced technical services to a minimum. Initiated the redesign of the Town’s website in cooperation with CivicPlus, with a scheduled launch date of December 9, 2011. Completed the transition to offsite hosting for the Town and Academy websites, reducing equipment needs and power consumption. Added a second full-time IT technician to meet the organization’s growing demands for technology support.

2011 Goals and Objectives Perform on-going security assessments to validate the efficacy of existing measures and to evaluate and deploy solutions for new threats. Identify and implement additional information technologies to improve the efficiency and/or security of business processes. Continue to reduce costs through the use of internal staff and third-party vendors. Continue to simplify our network where possible while maintaining the highest levels of security, reliability, and functionality for system users. Expand the effective use of technology in the classroom to maximize each child’s learning potential.

GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

Communications & Community Affairs Strategic Vision Points We are a Caring Community Exemplary Governance Service Excellence

Program Description The department of Communications & Community Affairs is responsible for leadership and representation on matters related to Town and Academy communications, promotion, and citizen/parent engagement. The Director position has senior level management duties and reports to the Town Manager. The position assists in the facilitation of neighborhood meetings, publication of our newsletter, Town advertising, web site development, video presentations and various community events and gatherings.

Trends While this department is newly created in 2011, a similar position/department was eliminated in mid 2006, after two years of service, due to budget constraints. Over the past 3 years, DirectionFinder Survey results show an approximate approval rate average of 75% for overall satisfaction concerning the Town’s communication effectiveness. Survey results taken from Westlake Academy Parents demonstrated an approximate approval rate average of 60 % over the past 3 years regarding the quality of communication received from the Academy. One of the needs identified by the Board of Trustees to help foster better communication is the creation and distribution of a “welcome” type package of most requested information about both the Town of Westlake and Westlake Academy.

Program Broad Goals Develop key relationships with community affairs and public information strategies and programs designed to inform and engage residents, parents, all Town/Academy employees, media contacts and members of the business community in order to increase awareness and promotion of both Town and Academy. Consistently reviews Town and Academy websites for current or relevant data and works with respective Department Directors as it relates to content development; Analyzes location and accessibility of data for improvement with IT Director; Serves as primary contact for Town website updates with IT Director.

Facilitate the resident and parents surveys; meet with various stakeholders to discuss areas of improvement in communications. Raise awareness of communication and promote a sense of community by educating our target audiences relative to Town events, volunteer opportunities, quality of life issues, amenities in Westlake and educational benefits from Westlake Academy. Plan and organize resident meetings, school-parent meetings and the area business groups to foster engagement, support and open/transparent lines of communication.

GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

Police Services Strategic Vision Points We are a Caring Community Service Excellence

Program Description The Keller Police Department is the provider of law enforcement services for the Town of Westlake. In June of 2002, the two communities began an interlocal agreement, which would benefit both organizations through the provision of police related services for Westlake citizens and bring additional staff resources via the contract commitments for the City of Keller. The Police Departments was accredited through the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA) in July of 2006. Only 2% of police departments in the United States ever achieve this recognition. Jail and dispatch services are provided through a regional configuration – serving the communities, of Westlake, Keller, Southlake and Colleyville.

Trends Part 1 Crime continues to be incredibly low in Westlake with only 19 crimes reported for the entire year of 2010. The severity of motor vehicle collisions on Highway 114 continues to decrease since Keller Police assumed traffic enforcement in 2002 along with the engineering modifications that were completed. Citizen calls for police services have increased over the course of the contract - from 1,200 in 2003 to 1,965 in 2010. By contracting police services with the Keller Police Department the complexity of law enforcement issues relating to the Deloitte University will be handled without adding town personnel.

Program Broad Goals Deliver the highest quality of police services to the Town of Westlake with a fully staffed and equipped Nationally Accredited agency.

2010-2011 Highlights Worked closely with Deloitte University Security to prepare for the opening. Increased the number of intoxicated drivers removed from the Westlake roadways by over 50%.

FUND OVERVIEW WESTLAKE ACADEMY This fund was incorporated into the Town’s budget beginning in FY 10/11. Westlake Academy opened its doors in September 2003 when the Town of Westlake officials took advantage of the State of Texas’ acceptance of chartered schools and thus, became the first and only municipality in the state to receive a chartered school designation. As a chartered school, Westlake Academy is an open enrollment public school. In 2008 the Texas Education Agency (TEA) renewed the Academy’s charter until 2016. The officials who pioneered the school also decided to follow another brave path in offering the globally recognized International Baccalaureate (IB) curriculum which is now being provided in over 900 schools nationwide and over 2,300 in 128 countries worldwide. Westlake Academy is owned and operated by the Town of Westlake and is the largest operating department of the Town. The TEA requires a separate budget be submitted to the state. A portion of that budget is now incorporated into the Town’s annual budget. The Academy’s fiscal year begins on September 1st and ends of August 31st. Revenues and Other Resources  FY 11/12 is budgeted at $5,244,068  An increase of $653,964 over the ending estimated FY 10/11 budget of $4,590,104.  Enrollment is anticipated to increase by 97 students; therefore, bringing in more State and Local funds. Expenditures and Other Uses  FY 11/12 is budgeted at $5,334,446  An increase of $724,384 over the ending estimated FY 10/11 budget of $4,610,062.  A portion of this additional expense was the transfer of indirect operating expenditures that were previously being paid by the town. Fund Balance  FY 10/11 estimated $760,220  FY 11/12 adopted $657,002  Decrease of $103,218 See the excerpt from the Academy’s budget in the appendix for additional information.

FUND OVERVIEW ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FUND The Economic Development Fund was set up to maintain all receipts and disbursement of funds pertaining to agreements between the Town and various corporations for economic development. There was confusion regarding the additional revenues being recorded in the General Fund and offset by expenditures. These balances offset to zero but skewed the analysis of each. The Town is hoping this fund will bring more transparency to the public regarding these receipts and payments. • •

Fidelity (Phase I) – A schedule has been set up to repay $35,758 regarding this agreement thru FY 15/16. Deloitte’s agreement includes a 50% reimbursement of sales tax receipts.

Revenues and Transfers In • Total revenues for FY 11/12 are $185,758 • $150,000 sales tax from Deloitte • $35,758 transfer in from General Fund for the payment to Fidelity (Phase I) Expenditures • Total expenditures for FY 11/12 are $185,758

FUND OVERVIEW VISITORS ASSOCIATION FUND The Visitors Association Fund was established in late FY 1999/2000 and collects a 7% hotel occupancy tax from the Marriott Solana and any future Westlake hotels. FY 2004/2005 saw the launch of a new program in partnership with the Marriott to operate a shuttle service which delivers and returns Marriott visitors to DFW Airport. Hotel Occupancy Taxes are allocated to this fund and obtained through the assessment of a 7% hotel occupancy tax. Authority granted by the State of Texas allows cities to levy a tax not to exceed 7% of the rental rate for a hotel/motel room. Funds generated by the occupancy tax may be used in a manner that directly enhances and promotes tourism and the convention and hotel industry. Revenues • Total revenues for FY 11/12 are $557,175 • This is a 4% increase of $20,000 compared to the FY 10/11 estimated revenues. REVENUES Hotel Tax Investments Misc Income TOTAL

FUND OVERVIEW PROPERTY TAX REDUCTION SALES TAX FUND The Westlake Property Tax Reduction (PTR) Fund receives its funding from a ½ cent sales tax levy that was formerly earmarked for the 4A Economic Development Corporation. The purpose of this fund is to reduce local property tax rates throughout Texas by providing cities with an additional unrestricted revenue source. Until FY 10/11, in Westlake’s case, the revenue mitigated economic pressures to adopt a local property tax. In 2006, the voters of Westlake approved the dissolution of the 4A ½ cent tax and the implantation of the ½ cent tax to reduce property taxes in order to secure a less restrictive funding source for the Town. A portion of these funds are used to pay remaining debt service over and above that provided by the 4B Economic Development Corporation. These monies may be utilized for general Town expenditures and to fund a portion of debt service. At the end of FY10/11 fund balance will be transferred to the General Fund and the fund will be closed.

FUND OVERVIEW LONE STAR PUBLIC FACILITIES FUND This fund was set up initially with donations from several involved corporations that were going to benefit from tax-exempt bonds. The Lone Star Public Facilities Corporation was founded in 1996 and was designed “to provide for the acquisition, construction, rehabilitation, repair, equipping, furnishing and placement in service of public facilities in an orderly, planned manner and at the lowest possible borrowing costs.” The ideas was to “acquire, through the issuance of installment sale obligations, office buildings, located within the State of Texas but outside the boundaries of Westlake, whose tenants will be limited to those entities which are qualifying tenants under applicable federal income tax law so the interest payable with respect to the installment sale obligations will be exempt from federal income taxation.” No bonds were ever issued. The fund is earning interest annually. Revenues • Total revenues for FY 11/12 are $30 in interest earnings. Expenditures • There have been no expenditures from this fund since inception

FUND OVERVIEW DEBT SERVICE FUND The Debt Service Fund was created to clearly illustrate the Town’s debt service picture. The Town’s obligations are consolidated into one fund with payments being transferred from 4B Economic Development Fund, Property Tax Reduction Fund (in prior years), General Fund (in subsequent years) and the Visitors Association Fund. The Council approved $1.9M in CO’s for various capital projects during the current fiscal year. Future CO’s and General Obligation debt issuances would also be paid from this fund. The Debt Service Fund is used for the payment of general long-term debt principal, interest and related costs of Town issued debt. The Town of Westlake implemented an ad valorem property tax for the first time during FY 2011-12.. There is no direct limit on debt for the Town. The Constitution of the State of Texas provides that the ad valorem tax levied by the Issuer for general purposes and for the purpose of paying debt service requirements of the Issuer’s general obligation debt shall not exceed $1.50 for each $100 of assessed valuation of taxable property. The Town issued $2,095,000 in Certificates of Obligation during the current year. Shown below is the Town’s debt position as of the beginning of FY 2012-11: Outstanding General Obligation Bonds and Certificates of Obligation Principal $ 21,725,000 Interest 12,122,645 Total $ 33,847,645 Debt service payments are made for the following: Issues made for the construction of the Westlake Academy facilities: $12,400,000 $ 6,410,000 $ 2,500,000 $ 7,465,000

Water Revenue The Utility Fund is the recipient of all revenue generated from water sales in the Town. With the construction of Westlake’s master-planned residential developments, the Town placed new water infrastructure into service in 2000. As Westlake’s customer base continues to expand, additional demands will be placed on the utility system, requiring incremental expansion and maintenance of infrastructure. Effective October 1, 2011, Fort Worth rates will increase by 10% ($1.5707/1000 gal to $1.7376/1000 gal) due to higher treated sewage volumes, capital project funding needs and associated operating costs. Ductbank The ductbank is a series of Town owned conduit that houses underground telecommunication infrastructure in portions of Westlake. Revenues from the ductbank are contingent upon utility companies leasing out portions of the conduit. The Town continues to execute new leases with telecommunications companies.

1 5 4


FUND OVERVIEW Wastewater Revenues Wastewater revenue is another major component of the Utility Fund. Wastewater revenue is expected to grow proportionate to future non-irrigation water demands. These future increases can be attributed to both residential and commercial growth. Effective December 1, 2011, TRA rates will increase by 11% ($3.499/1000 gal to $3.902/1000 gal) due to higher treated sewage volumes, capital project funding needs and associated operating costs.

Millions

Waste Management During FY 2008-09, the Town took over the billing and collection of residential solid waste user fees for its franchised hauler. The Town changed from twice a week pick up schedule to once a week pick up schedule in lieu of a rate increase. The current rate for solid waste and recycling service remains unchanged since 2008. The Town receives a 12% fee from its franchisee for providing this service. $3.00 $2.75 $2.50 $2.25 $2.00 $1.75 $1.50 $1.25 $1.00 $0.75 $0.50 $0.25 $0.00

FUND OVERVIEW The Utility Fund accounts for water and wastewater services for the residents of the Town. All activities necessary to provide such services are accounted for in the fund, including administration, operations, maintenance, financing and related debt service, and billing and collection. In addition, this fund contains the planning and implementation of the ductbank. This is a series of underground conduit designed to house telecommunications services in Westlake. The ductbank is a public/private partnership that utilizes public and private sector capital, town planning and engineering and town operation. Phase I was completed in FY 2000-01 and became ready for occupancy in FY 2001-02 with leases following completion of construction. FY 2004-05 saw the completion of the ductbank extension from Vaquero to Pearson Road with a lease following the construction. The development of the Terra Bella subdivision extended the ductbank from Sam School Road through the subdivision to Dove Road. In 2010, Deloitte University constructed new ductbank through their development that connected the section at Dove/Pearson Lane to Ottinger Road at the Deloitte service entrance with leases following completion of construction. The Utility Fund is responsible for all water, sewer, and telecommunications ductbank service in the Town. The Town continues to use new automated technologies to control inflows into our storage facilities and minimize the annual peak payment charges from the City of Fort Worth. The fund is also burdened with three outstanding long-term obligations. 1. The first is the proportionate buyout of infrastructure owned by the Hunt Trust which sold the Circle T Ranch to Hillwood. The Town’s agreement with Hillwood is that in exchange for dissolution of the Municipal Utility Districts (MUDs), the Utility Fund will reimburse Hillwood the share of purchased MUDs infrastructure for each development based upon the acres removed from the MUDs. Hillwood, in turn, must deposit these funds into an escrow account owned by the Hunt Trust. 2.

The second long term liability is the loan from Hillwood to the Town to construct the 16” and 20” transmission water lines and the US 377 Pump Station. The Town is contractually obligated to pay for this infrastructure through a surcharge on water rates. The Town is divided into two service areas, one being the Circle T Ranch, and the remaining areas within the Town’s limits which constitute the “Town” service area. The Town pays Hillwood $.25 cents per 1,000 gallons of water distributed to consumers in these two service areas. Each service area pays its respective portion of the overall debt based on the volume of water used from the customers. The contract clearly stipulates that this is not a general obligation of the Town. It is, however, required to be paid back through this assessment being attached to the water rate. The rate would have to be significantly increased to pay this debt off in the twenty years contemplated under the agreement. Hillwood has stated that once the Town and Hillwood agree on proportionate future infrastructure funding, this liability will be erased. Nevertheless, the obligation does exist and water rates should always be reviewed with this obligation in mind.

156


FUND OVERVIEW 3.

The third long term liability is the joint Westlake/Keller water tower that was constructed to provide the necessary water storage and pressures within Westlake.

Staff is committed to maintaining an up to date utility rate analysis to maintain the integrity of the fund. The budget is based on an adjustment in water and sewer rates from a rate study conducted in FY 2010-11. The fund revenues were estimated based on a water and sewer rates approved by the Town Council on December 13, 2010 and became effective January 1, 2011. The purpose of the rate increase was to fully recover all system costs as well as provide for capital improvements and maintenance of our water and sewer utility. In addition to the rate increase on December 13, 2011, Council also approved a “passthrough” rate adjustment ordinance that provides for an automatic adjustment to rates based on unit volume costs from the Town’s wholesale providers. Capital projects funded by the Utility Fund are described in the capital improvements portion of this overview.

FUND OVERVIEW UTILITY- MAINTENANCE & REPLACEMENT FUND The Utility-Maintenance & Replacement Fund (UMR) was created to provide a mechanism for repair and replacement of capital assets such as pump stations, lift stations, elevated and ground storage facilities, etc. This fund receives planned portions of revenues from the Utility Fund allocated to future capital repair and replacement. As in the General-Maintenance and Replacement Fund, this was anticipated to help avoid future bond programs and force a more conservative pattern of spending in light of uncertain future revenues. There are no anticipated repairs for FY 2010-11. This fund consists of systematic water and sewer line repairs and major maintenance projects funded by an operating transfer from the Utility Fund. Projects are included each year from a long-range maintenance schedule which incorporates routine scheduled maintenance and recommended replacement and upgrading of lines and permanent capital assets. Revenues and Transfers In • FY2011-12 revenues are $50,100 • A 5000% increase from the FY 10/11 estimated revenues of $100 Expenditures • FY2011-12 expenditures are $31,200 • A 100% increase from the FY 2010-11 estimated expenses of $0 Fund Balance • Anticipated fund balance at FY 2011-12 year-end is $61,528

FUND OVERVIEW GENERAL MAINTENANCE & REPLACEMENT FUND The General Maintenance & Replacement Fund was created to provide a mechanism for the long term repair and replacement of large capital assets such as HVAC, walls, floors and ceilings, plumbing, electric, roadways, etc. This fund receives planned portions of revenues from each operating fund that owns and maintains capital assets to set aside for future capital repair and replacement. This helps to avoid future bond programs and encourages a more conservative pattern of spending in light of uncertain future revenues. Currently, because of our financial situation, the fund is not being able to be used as we had anticipated. This fund supports systematic facility repairs and major maintenance projects funded by operating transfers from other Town funds. Project lists are developed annually from a longrange facility maintenance schedule, and incorporated into a routine schedule for maintenance and replacement of major facility equipment and infrastructure and permanent capital assets. Revenues and Transfers In  FY11/12 revenues are $530,250  A 17% decrease from the FY 10/11 estimated of $642,020 Expenditures/Projects  FY11/12 expenditures are $418,520  A 712% increase from the FY 10/11 estimated of $51,540 Project # 7 14 24 25 19 20 21 27 29 12 9 15 28 10 17 11 13 16

FUND OVERVIEW VEHICLE AND EQUIPMENT REPLACEMENT FUND The Vehicle and Equipment Fund (V&E) was created to provide a mechanism for long term repair and replacement of vehicles and large equipment. The V&E Fund receives planned portions of revenues from other funds to set aside for future vehicle and equipment repairs and replacement. This helps to avoid future funding shortfalls and forces a more conservative pattern of spending in light of uncertain future revenues. • •

This fund is being consolidated with General – Maintenance & Replacement Fund Estimated fund balance of $57,256 for FY 2010-11 will be transferred out to close the fund

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT Fiscal Years 2011/2012 Thru 2015/2016 FM 1938 Streetscape/Wayfinding Vision Point: Inviting Neighborhoods Project Description: Project consist of the design and construction of landscape and hardscape improvements to the FM 1938 corridor from SH 114 south to Randol Mill Road, including sidewalks, trailheads, signage, rest areas, plantings, entry monuments. Per developer's agreements: Fidelity is to provide funding for landscape enhancements to the median and ROW (est. $322K) and Vaquero (Discovery Land) was to provide landscape enhancements to the median (est. $217K). We anticipate the Fidelity and Discovery Land amounts will need to be negotiated as the developer's agreements don't provide a cap nor scope of work to be designed to. The Town is required to install sidewalk on the west side of FM 1938 from Dove to SH 114 per the Fidelity developer's agreement at our cost. Utility relocations will be necessary to accomodate construction, including adjusting manholes, fire hydrants, valves and meters as necessary. Maintenance is for irrigation only.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN The purpose of a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is to more formally structure the process for pricing, prioritizing, and determining the scope of all Town capital projects. The CIP helps both the elected officials and the staff to see the most accurate picture possible of the Town’s infrastructure and public building needs over the next five (5) years. The complete CIP document can be found on the Town’s website. 198


CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN A Town capital project should be defined as construction or reconstruction of any public building or infrastructure identified as a community need, whether funding is currently available or not. If funding is not currently available, but the project is determined by the Council to be important, the project is still included in the Council’s approved five (5) year CIP and shown as unfunded. If funding is later made available, the project is already on the “radar screen”, although it may be scheduled in the out years of the 5 year planning period. The Council approved the Town’s first formal Five (5) Year CIP in the prior fiscal year. By going through the effort of a formally prepared CIP in the prior year, subsequent years’ CIP should be more of an annual update to make sure of the following: • The staff has identified all the capital projects the Council sees on the horizon. • The Council can remove the projects that no longer are seen as a priority in terms of not meeting the community’s strategic needs (assuming that no funding has been spent on design thus far). • Annual Council review allows project timing to be adjusted in terms of which year in the 5 year time span the project is assigned. • Annual review of the Council approved 5 year CIP allows this review to be performed at the same time as the review of the 5 year financial forecast (this is completed to see the impact of a capital project not only on the capital side, but also on the operations/maintenance side). • With Council’s adoption of this 5 year CIP, along with the adopted financial policies, no capital project, regardless of funding source, is put into the CIP until it first comes through the annual update “call for projects” prepared each Spring by the staff and is included in the CIP approved by the Council.

FIVE YEAR FORECAST NARRATIVE

FIVE YEAR FORECAST

202


FIVE YEAR FORECAST NARRATIVE It is important to keep in mind the purpose of a forecast is to get a general picture of what the organization’s financial condition over time could be, based upon conservative assumptions. The term “conservative” used in the context of financial forecasting means revenues are forecast at low growth levels or even at a decline (depending on the revenue source). Expenditures, while not necessarily being forecast as declining, are generally forecast with a 2-3% escalation rate, depending on inflation. Forecasts generally have at least one scenario where all that is assumed on expenditures is the current level of service and perhaps some growth in salary/wage expenses. The Council can, if they wish, ask that certain service level adjustments, whether it is service expansion or reduction, be included as alternate scenarios, particularly if it appears that revenues will not cover expenditures in the out years of the forecast. It is also important to remember, since the purpose of the forecast is to get an idea, based on conservative assumptions, as to the Town’s financial condition during the five (5) year planning period, that the forecast is likely to show the Town’s financial position to have reductions in fund balance as expenditures begin to exceed revenues (even with conservative expenditure assumptions). This is the reason forecasting is a good tool, as it gives the Council time to strategize as to course corrections we may have to make financially, both in the short and long term. Finally, it is important to remember the criticality that economic conditions play in forecasting, particularly as it relates to sales tax, which can be a volatile revenue source. If economic conditions improve, sales tax receipts are affected (usually positively) as well as building permit revenue.

FORECAST ASSUMPTIONS - FY 2011-2012 The five year financial forecast is based upon the following assumptions:

REVENUES: 

General Fund o Sales tax revenue is projected at a 6% increase (See Sales Tax Memo in Executive Section of this Adopted Budget) o A conservative one-time audit is estimated at $50,000 ($37,500 for the General Fund) o Includes the Property Tax Reduction portion of the Sales tax receipts o No additional one-time revenues related to economic development agreements are anticipated to be received o Property tax revenue estimated at $1,156,842 based on Certified Tax Roll and adopted tax rate of $.13835 per $100 of valuation o No gas well revenue is projected. o Building permits/inspection/plan review fees are based on 10 new homes o Franchise fees remained flat o Contribution of indirect cost totaling $302,900 from Westlake Academy

203


FIVE YEAR FORECAST NARRATIVE 

Utility Fund o Revenues are projected to increase by approximately 2%

EXPENDITURES: 

Specific Funds o General Fund - Expenditures increased by 7% (See transmittal letter for additional detail) o Visitors Association Fund – Expenditures/transfers out increased by 7% (Communications Director salary and department are being funded from this fund) o Utility Fund - Expenditures increased by 4% o CIP – Based on adopted CIP

All Funds o Includes all adopted maintenance projects and equipment replacement to maintain current level of service o Salary and wages increase by 1%

FORECAST ASSUMPTIONS - FY 2012-2013 AND BEYOND REVENUES: o o o o

Sales tax revenue is projected to increase 3% annually Property tax revenue is projected to increase 3% annually Other revenue is projected to increase by 2% Contribution from Westlake Academy is projected to increase by 1% (sale as salary and wages increase)

EXPENDITURES: o o o o

Includes all adopted maintenance projects and equipment replacement to maintain current level of service Salary and wages increase by 3% Other expenditures increase by 3% (excluding any one-time expenditures) CIP based on adopted CIP

PROGRAM BUDGETING Westlake’s Mayor and Council have created a vision, mission and value statements for Westlake that are intended

to

establish

the

Town

a

one-of-a-kind

community. Attaining leadership recognition involves the use of benchmarks and other tools that gauge the Town’s position relative to other municipalities in the metroplex. In pursuit of this goal, staff has converted our traditional line-item budget to a program based format to provide residents with a comprehensive review of our cost of services. 210


PROGRAM BUDGETING Background The program budget allocations will be used as a means of providing our residents and Council with the costs associated with public service provision according to the specific program rather than the traditional line-item designations. It has been developed with an approach that places greater emphasis on the services and activities provided to our stakeholders rather than the individual departments that carry them out. Westlake’s staff is currently organized to take advantage of cross utilization through our shared services model where traditional roles and responsibilities are performed among many staff members and departments.

Purpose The grouping of our expenditures according to each program of service provides our stakeholders with the ability to readily identify the corresponding department involved in providing the service and the cost to our residents. The associated outcome based performance measures will be incorporated into a balanced scorecard and strategy map to guide and direct the efforts of the Town Staff in order to create an environment that encourages continuous improvement. Tracking and reporting performance measures on a regular basis allows the Westlake staff to gauge its relative effectiveness with respect to service delivery. It also provides a level of accountability to residents and others so that they are aware of the level of service that they can expect to receive. The program budget may also be utilized as tools for prioritizing services and making organizational funding decisions. Deciding how responsive, effective or efficient a particular service should be carries implicit costs. Westlake continues to deliver the highest quality services possible while maintaining relatively low provision costs. The professional staff at the Town of Westlake takes pride in the work they do and the services they offer; the staff welcomes any input that will help the Town improve the quality of life of its residents and guests. The following pages provide detailed cost information, goals and objectives of each of the 41 programs identified by the Town’s leadership team. The glossary of terms provided below describes how each field was developed and its relationship to the overall document.

Glossary of Terms: 

Vision Point – There are five vision points: A Sense of Place, We Are Leaders, We are a Caring Community, Exemplary Governance and Service Excellence. These were developed in conjunction with the Town’s current Vision and strategic plan.

PROGRAM BUDGETING 

Department – The departments that have been identified within each program have been assigned according to the amount of funding they receive that has been identified as pertaining to the program.

Key Department – The “key department” as identified in the table of contents, is the department that receives the largest amount of funding for the corresponding program.

Program Objective – The program objective explains what the department(s) strive to accomplish. This objective should relate to the program and be stated in fairly plain language.

Outcome Measure – The outcome measure is a results-oriented measure related to the program objective; it should clearly identify a desired outcome that is relatively immediate. Where possible, the outcome measure has been tied into the resident survey (“overall satisfaction” rating includes the “neutral” % e.g. it is everyone who didn’t say they were dissatisfied with the service)

Impact to Town Vision – The impact to the Town vision is a simple one-sentence statement that summarizes the over-all benefit the program and its associated objective and measures represent to the Town of Westlake. However, this statement is unique because it also ties into the current vision and/or strategic plan that the Town has adopted. It is also generally a long-term objective that is meant to be more permanent than the other outcome and efficiency based measures identified with each program.

Core Services – Core services are the day to day tasks each department undertakes in order to carry out the corresponding program.

Activity Measure – The activity measure is a count of something that each department does that helps it reach the stated objective of the program. Generally, this is one of the tasks listed among the core services that have been identified.

Service Quality Measure – The service quality measure is an efficiency or efficacy measure associated with the activity measure that has been identified. It should reflect how responsive the department is to the citizens of Westlake or how efficient it is at carrying out a specific departmental task that is related to the stated program objective.

Executive Summary August 11, 2011 Honorable President & Board of Trustees Westlake Academy 2600 J. T. Ottinger Road Westlake, TX 76262 RE: Transmittal of FY 2011-2012 Westlake Academy Budget: “Continued Excellence in the Face of Change” As Superintendent for Westlake Academy, I am submitting for your consideration the Budget for FY 2011-2012. This Budget for Westlake Academy encompasses all teaching and extra-curricular operating expenditures as well as State public school funding and private donations used to support the daily school operations of Westlake Academy in the 2011-12 school year. This 2011-2012 General Fund Budget totals $ 5,334,446 representing a 16% increase. The budget is balanced utilizing $103,682 from available fund balance. A portion of this increase is due to Board discussion and direction from its June 9, 2011 budget retreat to add indirect costs into the Academy’s operating budget to reflect the full-cost basis. Please note that after indirect operating costs, as well as the costs attributed to the three leased portable buildings are accounted for, the operating budgets for both FY 10-11 and FY 11-12 require use of fund balance in order to achieve a balanced budget (e.g. they contain deficit spending). The five year forecast indicates that deficit spending will continue unless action is taken to increase revenues or reduce costs (see page 80). Figure 1 – Budget Summary General Fund

Westlake Academy Mission, Vision & Values Westlake Academy is a public charter school offering the International Baccalaureate (IB) curriculum. Founded in 2003, with a mission to achieve academic excellence and develop life-long learners who become well-balanced, responsible global citizens, Westlake Academy is the first and only municipallyowned school in the state to receive a charter designation. Westlake Academy is the fifth school of only ten in the United States, and the only public school, to offer the full IB curriculum for grades K-12. During this year’s budget retreat great care and consideration was given to the mission and vision of the Academy and the impact that these have on both the long-term goals of the Academy and its day-to-day operation. The following updated vision and mission statements represent the outcome of this discussion and evidence the Board’s continued dedication to academic excellence and personal achievement. The values statements are currently being reviewed by the Board and are listed here for reference only.

MISSION:

“Westlake Academy is an IB World School whose mission is to provide students with an internationally minded education of the highest quality so they are well-balanced and respectful life-long learners.”

VISION:

“Westlake Academy inspires students to achieve their highest individual potential in a nurturing environment that fosters the traits found in the IB learner profile.” ~ Inquirers, Knowledgeable, Thinkers, Communicators, Principled, Open-minded, Caring, Risk-takers, Balanced, and Reflective~

VALUES Maximizing Personal Development Academic Excellence Respect for Self and Others Personal Responsibility Compassion and Tolerance The following desired outcomes summarize the goals and objectives established by the Board of Trustees and leadership staff at the Academy.

Budget Framework - “Governing and Managing for Outcomes” The budget document is but one part of a system designed to link together critical governance and management decision making tools. This system is called “Governing and Managing for Outcomes” and is designed to integrate: • •

• •

Strategic planning Five (5) year financial forecasting, budgeting, and performance measurement linked to priorities, objectives, and outcomes Reporting to monitor progress in outcome achievement and accountability for results

• •

Aligning resources to prioritized outcomes Long term approach to ensure financial sustainability Working within Board adopted financial policies for the Academy Maintaining core services

Budget Process The process of projecting the budgeting needs of the Academy is a continual process that responds to the changing needs of the Academy students and staff as well as changes in the fiscal environment such as the current State funding reductions. The process of developing the Academy budget for fiscal year 2011-2012 began with the Westlake Board of Trustees meeting that was held in February of 2011. Following is a summary of the main steps taken in preparation of the adopted budget.

BOARD OF TRUSTEE BUDGET REVIEW The Board of Trustees regularly receives quarterly budget updates, some of which are detailed in the trend analysis and the five-year financial forecast discussed later in this document. Upon receipt of the proposed annual budget, the Board holds budget workshops to review proposed changes, their associated outcomes for the next fiscal year, as well as their impact in a five (5) year financial forecast.

BUDGET ADOPTION The Board of Trustees holds the required public meeting and adopts the budget in August prior to beginning the fiscal year which runs from September 1st to August 31st.

BUDGET AMENDMENTS The Final Amended Budget for the Year Ending August 31, 2011 will be submitted at the August, 2011 Board meeting. It will reflect all amendments previously approved by the Board of Trustees plus any final amendments. Often, these amendments influence the shaping of the current budget as actual trends in revenues and expenditures are realized and accounted for.

Explanation & Summary of Major Budget Components REVENUES The revenues received by Westlake Academy are classified into one of three broad categories: Federal, State or Local. State funding is the Academy’s largest revenue source making up over 80% of revenues from all funds. Staff estimates that the base level of total state aid paid through the Foundation School Program (FSP) in FY 11-12 will be $6,689 per student; approximately a 5% decrease from the FY 10-11 levels. As an open-enrollment charter school, Westlake Academy has the ability to establish specific class sizes and set limitations on secondary boundary enrollment. Enrollment for FY 2011-2012 is projected at 627 students in accordance with the current plan to attempt to maintain 20 students per class. Federal funding is received through grants that support special education and accounts for less than 5% of revenues for all funds; this funding is projected to remain flat. Local funding consists of two major sources, the Town and the Westlake Academy Foundation. As a municipally-owned charter school Westlake Academy does not have taxing authority; the Town of Westlake is responsible for debt service and capital improvements, these costs are estimated at $1,498,450 for FY 11-12. The Westlake Academy Foundation is an independent non-profit organization that raises funds through donations and fund raising; the FY 11-12 forecast is $1,000 per student, or approximately $627,000.

EXPENDITURES Compensation and benefits are the largest operating cost for Westlake Academy. The current teacher pay scale is based on the Board policy of being within 3% of the median of the nine (9) surrounding public school districts. Per Board direction, the salary scale will be held flat for FY 11-12; however, some salaries will increase according to the Step pay plan which recognizes employee tenure with small pay increases each year. The step increase for all applicable staff equals $24,716 (approximately 1%). Direct and indirect operating costs previously absorbed by the Town of Westlake municipal budget have been moved to the Academy operating budget. Direct costs totaling $243,213 were transferred in FY 10-11 and indirect costs totaling $303,695 have been transferred in the FY 11-12 budget. The following table reflects these transfers with the indirect costs included in the FY 11-12 adopted budget. Figure 3 - Overall Total Cost Summary – General Fund

Historically, revenues and expenditures have increased at relatively the same rate which has dictated the need for a higher fund balance in order to sustain the 45-day minimum requirement established by Board policy.

Budget Trends GENERAL FUND - STATE FUNDING Despite a 4% average annual growth rate, the State of Texas continues to lag behind the national average for per pupil funding, providing $1,000 to $1,500 less per pupil than the national average. Due to its Charter status, Westlake Academy receives less State funding per student than other non-charter public schools because public charter schools in the State of Texas do not receive facility funding. The Academy’s State funding per pupil has declined by approximately $400 per pupil since FY 09-10. Figure 9 Average Funding per Student

Service Level Adjustments This budget makes use of Service Level Adjustments (SLA’s) to track any cost changes. These cost changes will fall into one of four categories: first, increased operating costs to maintain current levels of service; second, increased operating costs due to expanded levels of service; third, increased costs due to the development of new services, and fourth, cost savings. Cost savings may occur for any number of reasons, but primarily arise due to increased efficiency, service level reductions, or not expending the budgeted resources. Generally speaking, Service Level Adjustments (SLA’s) in this budget fall into the category of increased operating costs for existing programs. Some SLA’s are due to existing program expansion, such as increasing the number of students in Grades 7 – 11. In terms of SLA’s involving new expenditure areas to target for recommendation to the Board for FY 1112, staff recommended several areas: new positions, employee compensation, and absorbing in-direct operating costs previously paid by the Town of Westlake. In addition, 50% of the Executive Director of Westlake Academy Foundation/Director of Development is being absorbed by the Academy. New Positions

Total: $410,289

Desired Outcome: High Student Achievement In FY 11-12 we will have 67.85 full-time equivalent employees (FTE’s), an increase of 8.4 FTE’s. These additions are tied directly to the increased number of students being served in the Secondary Program. • • • • • • •

In-Direct Operating Costs (previously charged to the Town of Westlake)

Total: $303,695

Desired Outcome: Financial Stewardship and Responsibility In FY 11-12 the Academy will pay the entire in-direct operating costs for administrative services shared with the Town of Westlake. This includes the Superintendent, Finance Director, Human Resources Director, Facilities Director, and support personnel. This has been paid by the Town of Westlake from the inception of the school in 2003. The amount represents $325,000 less the 25% portion of the IT Tech and the Maintenance Engineer for time allocated to the Town.

274


Facilities Maintenance and Operations Desired Outcome: Financial Stewardship and Sustainability

Total: $44,858

Increased utilization of the Academy campus will require additional resources for cleaning, maintaining, and operating. In the upcoming fiscal year, the Academy will begin to renovate existing classrooms to maintain the current high quality learning environment. In addition, there will be increased utility consumption and daily operating costs. Classroom/Instructional Supplies Desired Outcome: High Student Achievement – Effective Educators and Staff

Total: $34,784

With an approximate 20% increase in student enrollment at Westlake Academy, a proportionate increase in consumable classroom / instructional supplies are needed to maintain the current levels of service in each classroom. Employee Compensation and Benefits Desired Outcomes: Effective Educators & Staff – High Student Achievement

Total: $24,716

With over 70% of the Academy’s expenditures being directly related to employee pay and benefits, it is important that we offer competitive salaries, wages, and benefits to attract and retain a strong faculty base, even in a difficult economy. Teacher’s pay scale has been maintained at the prior fiscal year’s level with all faculty and staff receiving a step increase. Rosetta Stone

Total: 15,000

Desired Outcome: High Student Achievement The Texas Education Agency (TEA) has eliminated the Technology Allotment Grant which was used in the prior fiscal year to cover the cost of the campus site license for all students, teachers, and staff to access the full suite of Rosetta Stone products. This product is utilized as both an instructional and support tool for students to better learn and utilize their foreign language.

SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS The Special Revenue Funds are the funds that account for local, state and federally financed programs or expenditures legally restricted for specified purposes or where unused balances are returned to the grantor at the close of a specified project period. Some funds that were received in FY 10/11 will not be recognized until they are expended in FY 11/12 (i.e. funds 484, 485 & 486). The Academy has been very fortunate to have been awarded several grants from the Hudson Foundation; these grants have provided much needed resources that directly impact the quality of the Academy’s programmes.

Informational Summary CHANGES IN DEBT Debt service for the Academy’s capital infrastructure is included in the Town of Westlake’s municipal budget. The amount of debt outstanding including interest is approximately $30.7 million; this debt will be retired in 2021. The average annual debt service for Academy facilities paid by the Town of Westlake is approximately $1,500,000. Discussion of current and future capital projects may be found in the Organizational Section of this document (see pages 37& 38).

FACILITIES The Academy was designed and built to service approximately 620 students, with the addition of almost 100 students; the facilities at the Academy are projected to reach full capacity at the beginning of the current school year. However, curriculum and course schedules play an equally important role in determining facility use; the IB curriculum places a unique demand on staff and resources. In addition to the permanent structures on the campus, the lease cost for three temporary buildings was added as a budget amendment to the FY 10/11 Academy budget. The buildings will be used to support expanded curriculum offerings in the DP programme. These buildings do not meet the criteria for “capital” expenses and are paid for from the Academy’s operating budget. The 3 year lease includes a standard purchase option however, no commitment has been made at this time; the Board is currently discussing how this and other facility needs will be met in the future.

PERSONNEL TRENDS The Academy has added personnel each year since its opening to support new grade levels and classes as well as curriculum expansion. The total number of full time equivalent (FTE) positions filled in FY 1011 was 59.45. In FY 11-12 the Academy will add an additional 8.4 FTE positions to support additional course offerings and class expansions, the total number of FTE positions will increase to 67.85 (see page 84 in the Informational section for a complete list of all positions).

STUDENT ENROLLMENT TRENDS Westlake Academy’s student enrollment is established by two sets of boundaries. The primary boundary encompasses the Town of Westlake and allows Westlake residents automatic entry into Westlake Academy. The secondary boundaries are comprised of 31 of the surrounding school districts. While any school-age child from these districts is allowed to attend the Academy, demand for entrance has exceeded the Academy’s capacity necessitating an annual lottery system that is carried out according to the standards and practices dictated by Federal law. Student enrollment has grown since the Academy’s opening in FY 03-04 with the addition of one new grade level each year. The Academy opened with Grades 1 through 6 and completed adding grade levels in FY 09-10. The Academy’s enrollment continued to expand in FY 10-11 with an increase in target class sizes of 20 pupils per class and the addition of a third section in the secondary programme. In FY 11-12 the campus facilities at the Academy are expected to reach full capacity (including the three portable buildings discussed earlier in this document). Any future growth in student population may necessitate building or leasing additional space. Figure 14 Westlake Academy Student Enrollment

Total enrollment has increased steadily since FY 03/04 in harmony with the expansion of grade levels. The increase from 518 in FY 10/11 to 627 in FY 11/12is due to the Board’s decision to expand class sizes in an effort to increase State-funded revenues. Future enrollment increases or decreases are at the sole discretion of the Board.

SUMMARY While Westlake Academy continues to operate in an economic climate that presents challenges, it continues to grow in enrollment and perform at a high level in all areas of our student’s education. As with last year’s budget, we continue the use of a theme to focus on the essence of what we do as an organization when we identify and prioritize our resources as we prepare and consider a budget. I would offer for FY 2011-2012 the theme “Continued Excellence in the Face of Change”. While the ultimate impact of the State’s budgetary cuts are not yet fully known, it is our collective responsibility to ensure that despite budget constraints, we continue to look to the future and strive towards the vision we have established for our school. For Westlake Academy, we expect “Success and Nothing Less”! On behalf of the staff of Westlake Academy, as well as the municipal staff involved in providing support to the Academy, I would like to thank the Board for their leadership in pursuing educational excellence. I would like to recognize Finance Director Debbie Piper for her dedication, hard work, and diligent thoroughness in putting this budget together. Also, the Academy’s Leadership Team, particularly Administrative Coordinator Ben Nibarger and Management & Budget Intern Scott Dixon, are to be commended for their involvement and input into this document. A team is required if a school is to be successful as a learning community. And, that team must involve and consist of all the various facets of Westlake Academy; our faculty, administrators, parents, students, and the Board. Working as a team we can build our Westlake Academy learning community in a way that will make our students responsible global citizens in the twenty first century global market place in which they will live and work.

FUTURE BOARD DIRECTION AND FINANCIAL FORECAST The Board, at its June 18, 2010 planning retreat, directed staff to include the following in FY 2010-2011: • •

Add all Academy related direct operating costs, previously in the municipal budget, into the Academy’s operating budget Increase class size to an average of twenty (20)

Beginning in FY 2011-2012 the Board directed: • •

Move all indirect Academy operating costs now expensed in the municipal budget to the Academy operating budget. Budget Blacksmith funding at $1,000 per student

The following financial forecast was created to reflect these directives and supply the Board with a conservative estimate of how these decisions will affect future revenues. The key assumptions used to calculate future revenues are listed below. This five year forecast indicates that once conservative estimates for expenditures and revenues have been calculated; there will be a budget shortfall in future years.

FORECAST ASSUMPTIONS Basic Assumptions: • 18 students per class in Kindergarten • 20 students per class in G1-G6 • 20 students per section in G7-G10 • Average Daily Attendance rate of 97% Revenues: • 100% use of Blacksmith ($1,000/student) • 5% & 8% reduction in FSP funding • 3% annual growth in FSP funding beginning FY 15/16 Expenditure: • Personnel costs & Professional Services increase by 2% annually • Supplies increase by 1 ½% annually • Other operating costs increase by 1% annually

COMMUNITY PROFILE History of Westlake The Town of Westlake has a short but fascinating history. The geographic region, known as the place where the cross timbers met the prairie, holds tales of settlers from the Peters Colony, Indian treaties signed by Sam Houston, tremendous archeological treasures, and some of the oldest settlements in north Texas. The region has always been known for its natural bounty, its trade value, and its wonderful people. The Town of Westlake and northeast Tarrant County has maintained that distinction over the years, becoming one of the most desirable and sought after places to live in America.

In 1956, Dallas lawyer Glenn Turner purchased about 2,000 acres along State Highway 114. The area came to be known as Circle T Ranch. Soon after, ranches and homeowners in the surrounding community incorporated, taking the name Westlake. The area included what is known today as Westlake, plus the area north, to the northern shore of Denton Creek.

In the early 1970s, Houston developers Johnson and Loggins and professional golfer Ben Hogan approached Westlake about building a golf course, country club, and a housing development. Residents' interests differed. In 1973, Westlake disannexed what is now known as Trophy Club, clearing the way for the upscale housing development and golf course.

Nelson Bunker Hunt, a Texas oil millionaire, purchased the Circle T Ranch in the 1970s and it became a social hub for glamorous parties attended by celebrities from around the world. Hunt declared bankruptcy in 1989 and the Circle T Ranch was purchased by Ross Perot Jr. in 1993. Lake Turner on the Circle T Ranch

OPERATING BUDGET A. Preparation - Budgeting is an essential element of the financial planning, control and evaluation process of municipal government. The “operating budget” is the Town’s annual financial operating plan. The budget includes all of the operating departments of the Town, the debt service fund, all capital projects funds, and the internal service funds of the Town. The proposed budget will be prepared with the cooperation of all Town departments, and is submitted to the Town Manager who makes any necessary changes and transmits the document to the Town Council. A budget preparation calendar and timetable will be established and followed in accordance with State law. B. Revenue Estimates for Budgeting - In order to maintain a stable level of services, the Town shall use a conservative, objective, and analytical approach when preparing revenue estimates. The process shall include analysis of probable economic changes and their impacts on revenues, historical collection rates, and trends in revenues. This approach should reduce the likelihood of actual revenues falling short of budget estimates during the year and should avoid mid-year service reductions. C. Balanced Budget - As per State Law, current operating revenues, including Property Tax

304


FISCAL AND BUDGETARY POLICIES Reduction Sales Tax transfers (which can be used for operations), will be sufficient to support current operating expenditures. Annually recurring revenue will not be less than annually recurring operating budget expenditures (operating budget minus capital outlay). Debt or bond financing will not be used to finance current expenditures. D. Proposed Budget Process - a proposed budget shall be prepared by the Town Manager with the participation of all of the Town’s department directors. •

• • •

The proposed budget shall include four basic segments for review and evaluation: (1) personnel costs, (2) base budget for operations and maintenance costs, (3) service level adjustments for increases of existing service levels or additional services, and (4) revenues. The proposed budget review process shall include Council participation in the review of each of the four segments of the proposed budget and a public hearing to allow for citizen participation in the budget preparation. The proposed budget process shall allow sufficient time to provide review, as well as address policy and fiscal issues, by the Town Council. A copy of the proposed budget shall be filed with the Town Secretary when it is submitted to the Town Council as well as placed on the Town’s website.

E.

Budget Adoption - Upon the determination and presentation of the final iteration of the proposed budget as established by the Council, a public hearing date and time will be set and publicized. The Council will subsequently consider a resolution which, if adopted, such budget becomes the Town’s Approved Annual Budget. The adopted budget will be effective for the fiscal year beginning October 1. The approved budget will be placed on the Town’s web site.

F.

Budget Award - Each year the Council approved operating budget will be submitted annually to the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) for evaluation and consideration for the Award for Distinguished Budget Presentation.

G. Budget Amendments - Department Directors are responsible for monitoring their respective department budgets. The Finance Department will monitor all financial operations. The budget team will decide whether to proceed with a budget amendment and, if so, will then present the request to the Town Council. If the Council decides a budget amendment is necessary, the amendment is adopted in resolution format and the necessary budgetary changes are then made. H. Central Control - Modifications within the operating categories (salaries, supplies, maintenance, services, capital, etc.) can be made with the approval of the Town Manager. Modifications to reserve categories and interdepartmental budget totals will be made only by Town Council consent with formal briefing and Council action. I.

Each department shall have a multi-year business plan that integrates with the Town’s overall strategic plan.

J.

Reporting - Monthly financial reports will be prepared by the Finance Department and distributed to and reviewed by each Director. Information obtained from financial reports and other operating reports is to be used by Directors to monitor and control departmental budget. Summary financial reports will be presented to the Town Council quarterly.

305


FISCAL AND BUDGETARY POLICIES K. Performance Measures & Productivity Indicators - Where appropriate, performance measures and productivity indicators will be used as guidelines to measure efficiency, effectiveness, and outcomes of Town services. This information will be included in the annual budget process as needed. L.

IV.

Contingent Appropriation - During the budget process, staff will attempt to establish an adequate contingent appropriation in each of the operating funds. The expenditure for this appropriation shall be made only in cases of emergency, and a detailed account shall be recorded and reported. The proceeds shall be disbursed only by transfer to departmental appropriation. All transfers from the contingent appropriation will be evaluated using the following criteria: • Is the request of such an emergency nature that it must be made immediately? • Why was the item not budgeted in the normal budget process? • Why can’t the transfer be made within the department?

REVENUES MANAGEMENT A. REVENUE DESIGN PARAMETERS. The Town will pursue the following optimum characteristics in its revenue system: • •

• •

Simplicity - The Town, where possible and without sacrificing accuracy, will strive to keep the revenue system simple in order to reduce costs, achieve transparency, and increase citizen understanding of Town revenue sources. Certainty - A knowledge and understanding of revenue sources reliability increases the viability of the revenue system. The Town will understand, to the best of its ability, all aspects of its revenue sources and their performance, as well as enact consistent collection policies to provide assurances that the revenue base will materialize according to budgets, forecasts, and plans. Equity - The Town shall make every effort to maintain equity in its revenue system: i.e. the Town shall seek to minimize or eliminate all forms of subsidization between entities, funds, services utilities, and customer classes within a utility. Administration - The benefits of a revenue source will not exceed the cost of collecting that revenue. Every effort will be made for the cost of collection to be reviewed annually for cost effectiveness as a part of the Town’s indirect cost and cost of service analysis. Adequacy, Diversification and Stability - The Town shall attempt, in as much as is practical, to achieve a balance in its revenue system. The Town shall also strive to maintain a balanced and diversified revenue system to protect the Town from fluctuations in any one source due to changes in local economic conditions which adversely impact that revenue source.

B. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS. The following considerations and issues will guide the Town in its revenue policies concerning specific sources of funds: •

Cost/Benefit of Incentives for Economic Development - The Town will use due caution in the analysis of any tax or fee incentives that are being considered to encourage economic development. A cost/benefit (fiscal impact) analysis will be performed as a part of the evaluation for each proposed economic development project. Non-Recurring Revenues - One-time or non-recurring revenues will not be used to finance on-going operational costs. Non-recurring revenues will be used only for onetime expenditures such as long-lived capital needs or one-time major maintenance projects that occur infrequently. Non-recurring revenues will not be used for budget

306


FISCAL AND BUDGETARY POLICIES • •

balancing purposes except to cover the one-time expenditures described above. Investment Income - Earnings from investment of available monies, whether pooled or not, will be distributed to the funds in accordance with the equity balance of the fund from which monies were provided to be invested. Property Tax Revenues - The Town shall endeavor to avoid a property tax by revenue diversification, implementation of user fees, and economic development.

C. USER-BASED (DEMAND DRIVEN) FEES AND SERVICE CHARGES. For services that are demand driven and can be associated with a user fee or charge, the direct and indirect costs of that service will be offset by a fee where possible. The Town staff will endeavor to prepare a review of all fees and charges annually, but not less than once every three years, in order to ensure that these fees provide for, at minimum, full cost recovery of service. D. ENTERPRISE FUND RATES. Utility rates and rate structures for water and sewer services will be constructed to target full cost of service recovery. Annually the Town will review and adopt water and sewer utility rates and a rate structure that generates revenue sufficient to fully cover operating expenses, meet the legal restrictions of all applicable bond covenants, provide for an adequate level of working capital, and recover applicable general/administrative costs. The Solid Waste function will have rates that fully recover all costs and maintain an adequate balance. The Cemetery Fund will be structured to operate on lot sales and endowments. •

V.

General and Administrative (G&A) Charges – Where feasible, G&A costs will be charged to all funds for services of indirect general overhead costs, which may include general administration, finance, customer billing, facility use, personnel, technology, engineering, legal counsel, and other costs as deemed appropriate. These charges will be determined through an indirect cost allocation study following accepted practices and procedures.

E.

INTERGOVERNMENTAL REVENUES. As a general rule, intergovernmental revenues (grants) will not be utilized for on-going operating costs. Any potential grant opportunity will be examined to identify all costs related to matching and continuation of program requirements. Staff will focus on one-time grants to avoid long-term implications. If it is determined that accepting a grant with on-going cost conditions is in the interests of the Town, all the operating and maintenance costs must be included in the financial forecast and their ultimate effect on operations and revenue requirements be known.

F.

REVENUE MONITORING. Revenues as they are received will be regularly compared to budgeted revenues and variances will be investigated. This process will be summarized in the appropriate budget report.

EXPENDITURE CONTROL A. Appropriations – The point of budgetary control is at the department level in the General Fund and at the fund level in all other funds. When budget adjustments among Departments and/or funds are necessary, they must be approved by the Town Council. B. Current Funding Basis - The Town shall operate on a current funding basis. Expenditures shall be budgeted and controlled so as not to exceed current revenues plus the planned use of fund balance accumulated through prior year savings. (The use of fund balance shall be guided by the Fund Balance/Retained Earnings Policy Statements.)

307


FISCAL AND BUDGETARY POLICIES C. Avoidance of Operating Deficits - The Town shall take immediate corrective actions if at any time during the fiscal year expenditure and revenue re-estimates are such that an operating deficit (i.e., projected expenditures in excess of projected revenues) is projected at year-end. Corrective actions can include a hiring freeze, expenditure reductions, fee increases, or use of fund balance within the Fund. D. Balance/Retained Earnings Policy- Expenditure deferrals into the following fiscal year, shortterm loans, or use of one-time revenue sources shall be avoided to balance the budget. E.

Maintenance of Capital Assets - Within the resources available each fiscal year, the Town shall maintain capital assets and infrastructure at a sufficient level to protect the Town's investment, to minimize future replacement and maintenance costs, and to continue service levels.

F.

Periodic Program Reviews - The Town Manager shall undertake periodic staff and thirdparty reviews of Town programs for both efficiency and effectiveness. Privatization and contracting with other governmental agencies will be evaluated as alternative approaches to service delivery. Programs which are determined to be inefficient and/or ineffective shall be reduced in scope or eliminated.

G. Purchasing - The Town shall make every effort to maximize any discounts offered by creditors/vendors. Staff shall also use competitive bidding in accordance to State law, as well as intergovernmental partnerships and purchasing cooperatives to attain the best possible price on goods and services. H. Prompt Payment - All invoices will be paid within 30 days of receipt in accordance with the prompt payment requirements of State law. VI.

FUND BALANCE/RETAINED EARNINGS A. General Fund Undesignated Fund Balance - The Town shall strive to maintain the General Fund undesignated fund balance at, or in excess of, 90 days of operation. B. Retained Earnings of Other Operating Funds - In the Utility Fund, the Town shall strive to maintain positive retained earnings positions to provide sufficient reserves for emergencies and revenue shortfalls. C Use of Fund Balance - Fund Balance will be targeted to only be used with Council approval and can be only be used for the following: emergencies, non-recurring expenditures, such as technology/FF&E (furniture, fixtures and equipment), or major capital purchases that cannot be accommodated through current year savings. Should such use reduce the balance below the appropriate level set as the objective for that fund, recommendations will be made on how to restore it. The Council shall approve all commitments by formal action. The action to commit funds must occur prior to fiscal yearend, to report such commitments in the balance sheet of the respective period, even though the amount may be determined subsequent to fiscal year-end. A commitment can only be modified or removed by the same formal action.

308


FISCAL AND BUDGETARY POLICIES The Council delegates the responsibility to assign funds to the Town Manager or his/her designee. The Council shall have the authority to assign any amount of funds.

VII.

DEBT MANAGEMENT A.

B. Analysis of Debt Issuance and Debt Issuance Alternatives - Staff will explore alternatives to the issuance of debt for capital acquisitions and construction projects. These alternatives will include, but not be limited to, (1) grants- in- aid, (2) use of reserves, (3) use of either current on-going general revenues or one-time revenues, (4) contributions from developers and others, (5) leases, (6) user fees, and (7) impact fees. C. Use of Debt Financing - The useful life of the asset or project shall, at a minimum, exceed the payout schedule of any debt the Town assumes. Debt financing instruments to be considered by the Town may include: • •

• •

General obligation bonds - These must be authorized by a vote of the citizens of Westlake. Revenue bonds - These bonds generate capital requirements necessary for continuation or expansion of a service which produces revenue and for which the asset may reasonable be expected to provide for a revenue stream to fund the debt service requirement. Certificates of obligation - These can be authorized by Council approval with debt service by either general revenues or backed by a specific revenue stream or a combination of both. Lease/purchase agreements - These shall only be used to purchase capital assets that cannot be financed from either current revenues or fund balance/retained earnings and to fund infrastructure improvements and additions.

D. Assumption of Additional Debt - The Town shall not assume more tax-supported general purpose debt than it retires each year without first conducting an objective analysis as to the community's ability to assume and support additional debt service payments. E.

Affordability Targets - The Town shall use an objective multi-year analytical approach to determine whether it can afford to assume new general purpose debt beyond what it retires each year. This process shall compare generally accepted standards of affordability to the current values for the Town. The process shall also examine the direct costs and benefits of the proposed expenditures. The decision on whether or not to assume new debt shall be based on these costs and benefits and on the Town's ability to "afford” new debt as determined by the aforementioned standards. The Town shall strive to achieve and/or maintain these standards at a low to moderate classification.

F.

Debt Structure - The Town shall structure its debt payment schedules for general purpose debt to ensure level principal repayment schedules. The Town shall not assume any debt

309


FISCAL AND BUDGETARY POLICIES with "balloon' repayment schedules which consist of low annual payments and one large payment of the balance due at the end of the term. While balloon payment structures minimize the size of debt payments during the period, they force a large funding requirement on the budget of the final year. Given the uncertainties of the future, level payment schedules improve budget planning and financial management. G. Sale Process - The Town shall use a competitive bidding process in the sale of debt unless the nature of the issue warrants a negotiated bid. The Town shall award bonds based on a true interest cost (TIC) basis as long as the financial advisor agrees that the TIC basis can satisfactorily determine the lowest and best bid. H. Bond Rating Agencies Presentations - Full disclosure of operations and open lines of communication shall be made to the bond rating agencies.

I.

J.

INTERGOVERNMENTAL RELATIONSHIPS The Town will pursue coordinated efforts with other governmental agencies to achieve common policy objectives, share the cost of providing government services on an equitable basis, and support favorable legislation at the State and Federal levels. A. Inter-local Cooperation in Delivering Services - In order to promote the effective and efficient delivery of services, the Town shall actively seek to work with other local jurisdictions in joint purchasing consortia, sharing facilities, sharing equitably the costs of service delivery, and developing joint programs to improve service to its citizens. B. Legislative Program - The Town shall cooperate with other jurisdictions to actively oppose any State or Federal regulation or proposal that mandates additional Town programs or services and does not provide the funding to implement them. Conversely, as appropriate, the Town shall support legislative initiatives that provide more funds for priority local programs.

IX.

GRANTS A. Grant Guidelines - The Town shall apply, and facilitate the application by others, for only those grants that are consistent with the objectives and high priority needs previously identified above in these policies. The potential for incurring on-going costs, to include the assumption of support for grant funded positions from local revenues, will be considered prior to applying for a grant. B. Grant Review - All grant submittals shall be reviewed for their cash match requirements, their potential impact on the operating budget, and the extent to which they meet the

310


FISCAL AND BUDGETARY POLICIES Town's policy objectives. If there are cash match requirements, the source of funding shall be identified prior to application. Staff will focus on one-time grants to avoid long-term implications related to additional expenditures in future years. C. Grant Program Termination - The Town shall terminate grant funded programs and associated positions when grant funds are no longer available unless alternate funding is identified. X.

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT A. Positive Business Environment - The Town shall endeavor, through its regulatory and administrative functions, to provide a positive business environment in which local businesses can grow, flourish and create jobs.

FISCAL AND BUDGETARY POLICIES XIV.

CAPITAL BUDGET AND PROGRAM A. Preparation - The Town’s capital budget will include all capital projects funds and all capital resources. While the capital budget will be prepared annually on a project basis, it will be based on an on-going, multi-year capital improvement plan (CIP) that shows all funded and unfunded projects as identified by staff for all Town facilities and infrastructure. The multi-year CIP will be reviewed annually, updated by staff and presented to the Council for its review and approval. The annual capital budget will be prepared by the Finance Department with the involvement of responsible departments based on the multiyear CIP. B. Control - All capital project expenditures must be appropriated in the capital budget. The Finance Director must certify the availability of resources before any capital project contract is presented to the Town Council for approval. C. Program Planning - The capital budget will be taken from the capital improvements project plan for future years. The planning time frame for the capital improvements project plan should normally be five years, with a minimum of at least three years. The replacement and maintenance for capital items should also be projected for the next five years. Future maintenance and operational costs will be considered so that these costs can be included as appropriate in the annual budget. D. Financing Programs - Where applicable and with Council approval, impact fees, pro-rata charges, assessments, or other fees should be used to fund capital projects which have a primary benefit to specific, identifiable property owners. •

E.

XV.

Recognizing that long-term debt is usually a more expensive financing method, alternative financing sources will be explored before debt is issued. When debt is issued, it will be used to acquire major assets with expected lives which equal or exceed the average life of the debt issue.

Reporting - Periodic financial reports will be prepared to enable the department directors to manage their capital budgets. Summary capital project status reports will be presented to the Town Council quarterly.

CAPITAL MAINTENANCE AND REPLACEMENT The Town recognizes that deferred maintenance and not anticipating capital replacement needs increases future capital costs. Annually, available funds will be evaluated during the budget process and a percentage of each operating fund’s budget will be recommended to the Council for transfer. Upon approval by the Council, the recommended amount will be transferred to the appropriate funds (General or Utility Maintenance Replacement Fund) for major maintenance/ replacement of street, building roof, flooring, air conditioning, equipment, etc.

INVESTMENT POLICY I.

POLICY STATEMENT It is the policy of the Town of Westlake (the “Town") that the administration of its funds and the investment of those funds shall be handled as its highest public trust. Investments shall be made in a manner which will provide the maximum security of principal invested through limitations and diversification while meeting the daily cash flow needs of the Town and conforming to all applicable state and Town statutes governing the investment of public funds. The receipt of a market rate of return will be secondary to the requirements for safety and liquidity. It is the intent of the Town to be in complete compliance with local law and the Texas Public Funds Investment Act (the "Act", Texas Government Code 2256). The earnings from investments will be used in a manner that best serves the public trust and interests of the Town.

II.

SCOPE This Investment Policy applies to all the financial assets and funds held of the Town. Any new funds created by the Town will be managed under the provisions of this Policy unless specifically exempted by the Town Council and this Policy.

III.

OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGY It is the policy of the Town that all funds shall be managed and invested with four primary objectives, listed in order of their priority: safety, liquidity, diversification and yield. These objectives encompass the following. •

Safety of Principal - Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the Town. Investments shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to insure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. The suitability of each investment decision will be made on the basis of safety.

Liquidity - The Town's investment portfolio will remain sufficiently liquid to enable it to meet all operating requirements which might be reasonably anticipated. Investment decisions will be based on cash flow analysis of anticipated expenditures.

Diversification - Diversification is required in the portfolio's composition. Diversification of the portfolio will include diversification by maturity and market sector and will include the use of a number of broker/dealers or banks for diversification and market coverage. Competitive bidding will be used on each sale or purchase.

Yield - The Town's investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of attaining a reasonable market yield, taking into account the Town's risk constraints and cash flow needs. A reasonable market yield for the portfolio will be defined as the six month (180 day) U.S. Treasury Bill which compares to the portfolio's maximum weighted average maturity of six months.

The authorized investment purchased will be of the highest credit quality and marketability supporting the objectives of safety and liquidity. Securities, when not matched to a specific liability, will be short term to provide adequate liquidity. The portfolio shall be diversified to protect against market and credit risk in any one sector.

315


INVESTMENT POLICY The maximum weighted average maturity of the portfolio will be no more that 180 days and the maximum stated maturity of any security will not exceed two years. The funds are combined for investment purposes but the unique needs of all the funds in the portfolio are recognized and represented. Effective cash management is recognized as essential to good fiscal management. Cash management is defined as the process of managing monies in order to ensure maximum cash availability. The Town shall maintain a cash management program which includes timely collection of accounts receivable, prudent investment, disbursement of payments within invoice terms and the management of banking services. IV.
