1 Discussion Materials Gloucester County, Virginia February 26, Member NYSE FINRA SIPC Member NYSE FINRA SIPC

2 Background County Staff tasked Davenport to conduct a Comprehensive Review as it relates to the County s: Financial Policy Guidelines; Historic Operations and Fund Balance; Key Debt Ratios; and Capital Improvement Program ( CIP ). As part of the various tasks, Davenport coordinated with County Staff in order to thoroughly assess and evaluate the County s financial position with respect to: National, Regional, and Virginia Peer Counties; Best Practices based on guidance from the National Rating Agencies and the Government Finance Officers Association ( GFOA ); and The Recommended CIP and the various Scenarios regarding the potential Gloucester County High School Project. Davenport developed and discussed several analyses with County Staff over the past several months. The materials presented on the following pages are intended to provide an Executive Summary of Davenport s Comprehensive Review in order to provide perspective on: Adherence to Financial Policy Guidelines and Maintaining Creditworthiness; and Debt Capacity and Debt Affordability as it relates to the funding of the identified CIP projects. These discussion materials will focus primarily on the County s CIP planning efforts. February 26, Gloucester County, VA 1

5 Introduction Credit Ratings and Peer Comparatives Credit Ratings Overview The County is not currently rated by the National Rating Agencies. However, prior to the August 12, 2015 Refunding of the EDA Lease Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2006, the County s Lease Revenue Bonds were rated AA/AA- by Standard and Poor s and Fitch Ratings, respectively. The County was not rated by Moody s Investors Service.

6 Selection of Peer Comparatives Virginia and Regional In addition to the County s Rating Peers, Davenport developed a group of Virginia and Regional Peer Counties based on the following criteria: 1. Virginia Counties Budget Peers - Counties in Virginia with a Local Revenue Budget (1) +/- $25 Million in comparison to Gloucester County. Population Peers - Counties in Virginia with an estimated 2016 population +/- 10,000 in comparison to Gloucester County. 2. Regional County Budget Peers - Counties in VACo Regions 1-5 and 7 with a Local Revenue Budget (1) +/- $25 Million in comparison to Gloucester County. Population Peers - Counties in VACo Regions 1-5 and 7 with an estimated 2016 population +/- 10,000 in comparison to Gloucester County. Parameter Budget Siz e Population Range (+/-) 25,000,000 10,000 Upper Limit 82,864,064 46,983 Gloucester 57,864,064 36,983 Lower Limit 32,864,064 26,983 (2) (1) Local Revenue Budget data is sourced from the Auditor of Public Accounts Comparative Report; excludes revenues from Federal and State governments. (2) Region 2 Peers are well above or below Gloucester s Budget Size and population and are thus excluded as peers for the purposes of this analysis. February 26, Gloucester County, VA 5

16 3. Debt Capacity and Policies (Current and Recommended) February 26, Gloucester County, VA 15

17 Introduction Financial Policy Best Practices Financial Policies that are adopted, adhered to, and regularly reviewed are recognized as a cornerstone of sound financial management. Effective Financial Policies: Contribute to the County's ability to insulate itself from fiscal crisis; Enhance access to short term and long term financial credit by helping to achieve the highest credit ratings possible; Promote long-term financial stability by establishing clear and consistent guidelines; Direct attention to the total financial picture of the County rather than single issue areas; Promote the view of linking long-run financial planning with day-to-day operations; and Provide the County Staff, the County Board and the County citizens a framework for measuring the fiscal impact of government services against established fiscal parameters and guidelines. Financial Policies should be reviewed periodically by County Staff and any recommended changes should be presented to the Governing Body for formal approval / adoption. February 26, Gloucester County, VA 16

18 Introduction Financial Policy Best Practices National Rating Agencies Moody s US Local Government General Obligation Debt, January 2014 A local government s success in navigating the legal, political and practical environment in which it operates depends on a multitude of factors, including management s mastery in understanding its resources and managing its responsibilities, public and executive support for its plans, and its willingness to use the tools at its disposal. When evaluating a credit, we seek to understand the probable impact of fund balance policies, multi-year financial or capital planning, liquidity management, accuracy of budget forecasts, and willingness to make midyear adjustments. Reliance on nonrecurring, or one-shot revenues, such as proceeds from the sale of assets, windfall delinquent tax collections, or the use of fund balance as a revenue source, leaves the municipality vulnerable should these one-time revenues fail to materialize. S&P s U.S. Local Governments General Obligation Ratings: Methodology And Assumptions, September 2013 The rigor of a government s financial management practices is an important factor in Standard & Poor s Ratings Services analysis of that government s creditworthiness. Managerial decisions, policies, and practices apply directly to the government s financial position and operations, debt burden, and other key credit factors. A government s ability to implement timely and sound financial and operational decisions in response to economic and fiscal demands is a primary determinant of near-term changes in credit quality. S&P measures the strength of governmental financial management through seven (7) key factors: Revenue and expenditure assumptions Budget amendments and updates Long term financial planning Long term capital planning Investment management policies Debt management policies Reserve and liquidity policies February 26, Gloucester County, VA 17

19 Debt and Contingent Liability Policies Observations and Recommendations Observations of Current Policy The County monitors its key debt ratios at least annually in conjunction with the Multi-Year Capital Improvements Program process. The results are shared with the Board of Supervisors as part of the annual budgeting process. Key Debt Ratios (exclusive of Enterprise/Utility Fund debt) Net Debt as a percentage of Assessed Value will not exceed 3.0%; Net Debt per Capita will not exceed $1,700; and Net Debt as a percentage of Expenditures will not exceed 10%. Potential Policy Recommendations General The County may want to consider including language that provides latitude for the Board of Supervisors to make exceptions to these ratios as they see fit by motion or some other official action Should one or more of the projected key debt ratios breach policy levels, staff must request an exception from the County Board stating the justification and expected duration of the policy exception. Net Debt as a Percentage (%) of Expenditures Based on discussions with County Staff and the analyses conducted over the past several months, Davenport would recommend revising this policy to not exceed 15%. Net Debt per Capita This ratio has been de-emphasized by the credit rating agencies. Similarly, Davenport would recommend that the County consider deemphasizing or deleting this policy. 10 Year Payout Ratio The County may want to consider adding a 10 Year Payout Ratio policy. This ratio measures how quickly the County is paying principal on its debt obligations. Davenport recommends adding this policy -- Payout of aggregate outstanding tax-supported debt principal shall be no less than 50% repaid in 10 years. February 26, Gloucester County, VA 18

20 Debt Capacity vs. Key Debt Ratios The following pages illustrate the County s Debt Capacity in FY based on Key Debt Ratios with respect to Current Policies and potentially revised (Recommended) levels, as shown below. Key Debt Ratio FY Proj. FY 20 Levels (1) Levels (2) Current Policy Recommended Policy Levels Debt to Assessed Value 0.8% 0.75% 3.0% 3.0% Debt Service to Expenditures 4.7% 4.4% 10.0% 15.0% Debt Per Capita , Year Payout 76.9% 80.4% N/A 50.0% The remainder of this presentation will reflect the Recommended Policies as follows: Debt to Assessed Value Maximum of 3.0% Debt Service to Expenditures Maximum of 15.0% 10 Year Payout Ratio Minimum of 50.0% (1) Calculated as of FY. (2) Calculated as of FY ; assumes the County does not issue additional debt prior to FYE. February 26, Gloucester County, VA 19

21 Estimated Debt Capacity (1) Existing and Recommended Policy Levels Current Policy Levels The County s FY key debt ratios are shown below for comparative purposes. (2) Debt capacity is calculated based upon potential debt issuances in FY. The Projected FY Levels of the key debt ratios are shown for reference prior to any new debt issuance. The County is currently limited to approximately $30 Million in additional Debt Capacity due to the Debt Per Capita parameter. Recommended Policy Levels Based upon the Recommended Policy Levels, the County s Debt Capacity ranges between $37 Million and $62.5 Million. The Limiting Ratio in the case of either 20 or 25 Year debt would be the Recommended 10 Year Payout Ratio. The County may choose to breach this policy (or others), but would want to demonstrate that there is a prescribed plan to come back into compliance within a given timeframe. As with any of the benchmarks reflected herein, the County would potentially be negatively impacted from a credit perspective, if these benchmarks are materially breached for too long of a period.

23 Summary of CIP Scenarios Recommended CIP and GHS (1 Phase Approach) In order to provide the County with perspective on additional Debt Capacity and Debt Affordability, the following scenarios have been analyzed: Fiscal Y ear Scenario Scenario Scenario Projects Issued Recommended CIP 2 Page Athletic Fields 300,000 3 New Achilles Bus Loop 789,916 4 Transportation Facility - 7,019,000 5 County-Owned Library 4,800,000 Same as Scenario 1 6 Public Safety Radio Replacement 3,224,630 7 Support Facilities / Woodville 4,465,646 8 Subtotal Recommended CIP 20,599,192 20,599,192 20,599,192 9 (1) Gloucester High School (GHS) Renovation [1 Phase] - 75,297,275 52,625,000 31,575, Total CIP 95,896,467 73,224,192 52,174,192 Amortizations/terms for each Scenario (1), as described below: A 20 Years at 4.50% B 25 Years at 5.00% Please note that 30 Year options were evaluated, but it was determined that the County would be out of compliance with the Recommended 10 Year Payout Ratio for an extended period of time, additional financing (interest) costs would be excessive, and the benefit with respect to Debt Affordability (cash flows) would be minimal. The following key borrowing assumptions have been utilized for each of the above Scenarios: Issued Fall of Fiscal Year 1st Interest Payment Fiscal Year Following Issuance 1st Principal Payment Fiscal Year Following Issuance Structure Level Debt Service (1) A portion of the GHS Renovation project amounts above have been escalated by a factor of 5.25% for one year (to FY ) with base costs of $71.5 Million, $50 Million, and $30 Million, respectively. (2) For the purposes of this analysis, all projects other than the Public Safety Radio Portable & Mobile Replacement Project (the Radio Project ) will be financed over the terms set forth herein. In every Scenario, the Radio Project will be financed over 15 Years at an interest rate of 4.25%. February 26, Gloucester County, VA 22
