1 County s Role in School Building Programs 1

2 Presentation Overview County s Role in WCPSS Building Programs County s Financial Planning Process Current Capacity for Funding Future Programs 2 2

3 County s Role in School Building Programs Boards of Education and County Commissioners agree on the assumptions of the WCPSS building program and resulting needs / specific projects identified County develops a plan of funding for the agreed upon needs / projects Funding plan will include components and cash and debt funding A tax increase will likely be needed to provide the source of funding for repayment of debt and possibly operating costs of new schools 3

4 County s Debt and Capital Model County utilizes a financial planning model to evaluate the impact of future debt issuances. What the model is: A Predictive and Decision-making Tool identifies financial areas to monitor and issue to address Flexible easy to vary assumptions and generate multiple scenarios Constrained by Fiscal Policies provides red flags when key tolerances are exceeded What the model is not: A Budget Does not replace a budget; does not commit the County to a specific financial plan Precise Estimates bottom-line trends and based on input assumptions Static Updated at least twice a year during budget and after fiscal year-end results 4 4

5 Capital and Debt Management Policies Seven-year capital plan developed within context of debt policies and targets necessary to maintain AAA bond rating: Plan funded through dedicated revenue sources Target 80% Debt Funding; 20% cash 19% Minimum Fund Balance in the Debt Service Fund Debt repayment schedule that meets standards for AAA rated counties 5 5

6 Dedicated Revenue Sources for Capital and Debt Service Sales Tax Tax revenues from Article 40 and 42 sales taxes are statutorily required to fund school capital Total funds in 2013: $29 million Property Tax FY13 Property Tax: 53.4 cents; 15.5 cents designated for capital and debt service Total funds in 2013: $185 million Lottery Proceeds Use to fund debt service for bonds already issued Total funds in 2013: $10 million 6

7 General Obligation Debt What is general obligation debt? Debt backed by the full faith and credit of the County requiring commissioners to raise taxes to level necessary to ensure payment of the debt service once bonds are issued / sold Use of general obligation requires a voter referendum General Obligation Debt has lowest cost of borrowing If a tax increase is needed to fund debt and capital, the tax increase must be adopted by the Board of Commissioners during the annual budget process prior to any voter approved debt being issued 7
