3 Working together with our community Page 1 of 17 Special Council Meeting January 23, Subject: Proposed Levy Supported Operating Budget Report Number: FS Division: Financial Services Department: Financial Planning and Reporting Purpose: For Decision Executive Summary: Section 290 (1) of the Municipal Act, 2001 requires that each year local municipalities prepare and adopt estimates for the purposes of the municipality including amounts sufficient to pay all debts falling due within the year, and amounts required for any board, commission or other body. Preparing and adopting annual budget estimates determines Norfolk County s revenue requirements that will need to be collected through taxation and user rates. The Levy Supported Operating Budget is the final of four annual budgets presented to Council for review and adoption. The review and approval of the Proposed Levy Supported Operating Budget will determine the amount of taxes to be levied on property owners annually. Discussion: Council will be reviewing the Proposed Rate Supported Operating Budget on January 8, and the Proposed Capital 10 Year Plan, including the Capital Budget and Capital Forecast, on January 9, Review and approval of the Proposed Board of Health and Levy Supported Operating Budgets is the final component of the budget process. The Levy Supported Operating Budget outlines the business priorities and service levels for levy supported operations in Norfolk County and sets the level of taxation required to support those activities.

4 FS19-03 Page 2 of 17 Developing the Proposed Levy Supported Operating Budget Developing the Proposed Levy Supported Operating Budget (Proposed Budget) has been a collaborative process involving staff input from every Division and Department within the County. Staff across all Divisions worked with Financial Services staff to undertake the tremendous effort required into developing the Proposed Budget. The starting point for developing the Proposed Budget is the underlying principle that levels of service, in the Approved 2018 Levy Supported Operating Budget, will remain. Staff review these services for the most cost efficient service delivery method when preparing the budget requirements for. Changes in levels of service come from two sources: firstly, from reports approved by Council throughout the year, referred to as Council Approved Initiatives, secondly, from proposed changes presented as New Budget Initiatives in the Proposed Budget. For the 2018 budget process, Council was provided with a preview of estimated budget drivers, proposed new initiatives and a summary of initiatives Council approved in This exercise provided Council with preliminary budget information for consideration prior to the actual budget deliberations. However, given the election this year, Council was provided with a high level overview of Norfolk County s budget process on November 23, 2018 as opposed to preliminary budget information. The Proposed Budget is prepared in a number of identifiable components or segments that are each reviewed independently by the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) during the initial budget review. Upon completion of the initial review of all the budget segments, Financial Services staff consolidates all of the components and provides SLT with the Preliminary Budget for review. It is at this point that the overall impact of the budget is seen, including the potential impact on the Net Levy Requirement and an estimate of the tax rates required. SLT then reviews the Preliminary Budget and makes additional adjustments as appropriate. The Proposed Budget, presented herein, is as approved by SLT and recommended to Council for consideration. Proposed Levy Supported Operating Budget Format The following provides a description of the information provided on the Proposed Budget pages: 2018 Forecasted Actuals This presents an estimate of year-end expenditures and revenues. The FMW Budget System produces year-end projections based upon the spending pattern from previous years. Staff in each Department/Division review these projections and make

5 FS19-03 Page 3 of 17 adjustments where they determine there are differences between the projection and their knowledge of actual events. Financial Services staff have reviewed these forecasted amounts with the operating departments and adjustments have been made where appropriate. Please note these projections have not received any detailed year-end review and any year-end corrections are outstanding. In addition, no formal audit review has been undertaken. Adjusted Budget This presents the cost, net of revenues, of providing the levels of service approved by Council in the 2018 Budget, with adjustments for inflation and other known economic impacts. This is, essentially, a business as usual budget with no provision for new services or changes in levels of service and is generally referred to as the Base Budget. ADJ BUD % Council Approved Initiatives New Budget Initiatives This column presents the percentage change in the Adjusted Budget over the approved 2018 Budget. This is the change in the Base Budget and does not include any changes approved by Council during the year. Values that are presented in (brackets) indicate a decrease in the Adjusted Budget over the approved 2018 Budget for that category. Council Approved Initiatives are adjustments to the Base Budget approved by Council (through budget amendment reports) during the year, after the 2018 Budget was approved and in advance of preparation of the Proposed Budget. These changes to the Proposed Budget are presented separately from New Budget Initiatives as they have already been approved by Council whereas the New Budget Initiatives are for proposed changes. New Budget Initiatives are proposals for enhancement or reduction of existing services or for new services recommended by SLT for consideration by Council during the budget review process. Details of all Council Approved Initiatives and New Budget Initiatives are provided in a separate document entitled Council Approved and New Budget Initiatives. Proposed Budget This column presents the Proposed Budget as recommended by SLT, including the Adjusted or Base Budget, Council Approved Initiatives and the New Budget Initiatives recommended by SLT.

6 FS19-03 Budget $ Budget % This is the change increase or (decrease) in dollars ($) for each type of expenditure and revenue and percentage change (%) at the total levels of the Proposed Budget over the approved 2018 Budget. Page 4 of 17 EXPENDITURES Salaries & Benefits Materials & Supplies, Services, Transfer Payments/Grants Interdepartmental Charges Financial Infrastructure Funding Salaries and benefits are based on a consistent full-time equivalent (FTE) of staff that provided a similar level of service in the prior year. The estimated cost is based upon negotiated contracts for salaries and wages, adjusted for anticipated annual increments, and the cost of employee benefits based upon statutory requirements and contracts with benefits providers. These projected costs are based on the prior year s requirements with economic adjustments for inflation and other economic adjustments based on known/ established impacts on existing costs and contracts to provide a similar level of service. Interdepartmental Charges are for the allocation of support or administrative costs from one division/department to another. The allocation of Interdepartmental Charges is done to reflect the true operating cost, including support and administrative costs provided by another division. Also see Interdepartmental Recoveries in the Revenues Section. As this is an allocation of costs from one division/department to others, Interdepartmental Charges and Interdepartmental Recoveries should offset each other, however, there is a net difference because of the amount of Interdepartmental Charges allocated to Water and Wastewater Operations. These are costs associated with insurance premiums for buildings and vehicles, writeoffs of uncollectible accounts and bank service charges. This is for funds included in the Proposed Budget that are contributed to Reserve and Reserve Funds to provide funding for replacement of existing Tangible Capital Assets or for major improvements to extend their useful life. In addition, this category includes costs associated with the repayment of principal

7 FS19-03 Page 5 of 17 Capital and interest on long term debt issued by the County. The Proposed Budget includes an estimate of debt repayments on new debt planned to be issued for. This category provides funding for Operating Capital. Operating Capital is for acquisition of assets that are not classified as Tangible Capital Assets, including small tools, office furniture, office equipment, laboratory/testing equipment, etc. This also provides funding for capital projects included in the Proposed Capital 10 Year Capital Plan that are to be funded from Tax Levies. In accordance with the Capital Financing Policy, Levy Funded Capital is for major capital expenditure where there is no Reserve or Reserve Fund available to fund the capital purchases, so funding must be provided from Tax Levies. REVENUES PIL s Supplementaries Local Improvements Federal/Provincial Grants Municipal Recoveries Financial Charges/ Investment Income Fees & Service Charges Transfers from Reserves and Reserve Funds This is the revenue from Payments-in-Lieu of Taxes, estimated supplementary taxes for new properties coming into the tax roll for the first time during and recovery of Local Improvement Charges. This is for operating grants or subsidies received from Federal and Provincial Governments, based upon funding criteria and recovery rates applicable to the specific programs. Examples include the Ontario Municipal Partnership Fund (OMPF) Grant, funding of Health and Social Services costs, Ambulance operating subsidies, Norview Lodge operating subsidies. This is for funds received from other municipalities. Primarily this includes recoveries from Haldimand County for their share of Ontario Works, Social Housing and Health programs. Included as well are recoveries for Cross Border Ambulance service. This category includes penalty and interest on taxes, POA fines, donations and income on investments. This is for user fees and service charges for use of County owned facilities and services. The budgets for Fees and Service Charges are based on the User Fees and Service Charges approved by Council. This is for funds drawn from Reserves and Reserve Funds to provide funding for operating expenditures in accordance with the provisions of the particular Reserve or Reserve Fund.

8 FS19-03 Other Revenues Interdepartmental Recoveries Page 6 of 17 This includes a variety of revenues that do not fit into any other category, including sale of assets and recoveries for capital project expenditures. Interdepartmental Recoveries is the opposite side of the Interdepartmental Charges, representing the amount recovered by the charging division/department, for example the recovery in Financial Services for the charges allocated to other divisions/departments. Also see Interdepartmental Charges in the Expenditures Section. As this is an allocation of costs from one division/department to others, Interdepartmental Charges and Interdepartmental Recoveries should offset each other, however, there is a net difference because of the amount of Interdepartmental Recoveries allocated to Water and Wastewater Operations. NET LEVY REQUIREMENT STAFFING COMPLEMENT This is the amount that is required to come from property taxation to fund the net cost Expenditures less Revenues of providing the levels of service provided in the Proposed Budget. The Net Levy Requirement is applied across all of the taxable assessments to arrive at the annual Tax Rate. The Staffing Complement line at the bottom of each division/department budget is the total Full Time Equivalent (FTE) staff complement for the division/department cost centre. A summary of the FTE s for the County, excluding Water and Wastewater Operations, Library Services, and Police Services, is provided in Tab 2 of the Budget Book. The first column in the proposed budget document is the 2018 forecasted actuals. Below is a list of the major budget variances forecasted for 2018 based on current information. Because there is no systematic variance process in place at this time the drivers are individually listed at a high level for variances greater than $100,000 and the remainder are grouped together. Please note that this forecast does not include items which are unknown at this time that are related to year-end and prior year adjusting entries. Examples of these items include but are not limited to changes in post-employment and sick leave liabilities or any other necessary accruals.

9 FS19-03 Page 7 of 17 Budget Presentation to Council Requisitions from Boards and Agencies Estimated Revenue / Expenditures Details 2018 Surplus/ (Deficit) $ Supplementary Taxes 800,000 Tax Penalties (535,300) Winter Control Costs (1,738,100) Haldimand-Norfolk Transition Investment Interest 471,000 POA Revenues (326,000) Norfolk County Allocation Share of Social Housing Costs (158,300) Overall Salaries & Benefits 1,123,500 Miscellaneous Items (218,900) Estimated 2018 Budget to Actual Surplus/(Deficit) (582,100) Consistent with previous years, the Proposed Requisitions from Boards and Agencies are being presented separately from Norfolk County Divisional Budgets. As the budgets for these Boards and Agencies are the responsibility of the appointed Board, and not within the purview of County staff, staff thought it would be appropriate to present them separately. This would allow representatives of the Boards, if they so wished, to attend the Budget Review to present their budget and to be available to respond to questions from Council in a timely manner. Proposed Budgets for the following Boards are included in this separate presentation: 1. Haldimand Norfolk Health Unit to be presented to the Board of Health on January 23, 2. Norfolk County Police Services Norfolk County Police Services Board 3. Library Services Norfolk County Public Library Board 4. Grand River Conservation Authority and the Long Point Region Conservation Authority: a. The Requisitions from the conservation authorities are levied against the municipal members of the Authority under the authority of the Conservation Authorities Act and Regulations. The net amounts of requisitions from these Boards and Agencies are included in the Proposed Budget.

10 FS19-03 Page 8 of 17 Revised Financial Reporting Requirements Starting with the 2009 fiscal year, all municipalities in Ontario have been required to follow the revised Public Sector Accounting Board (PSAB) guidelines for reporting of Tangible Capital Assets (TCA) and other financial reporting requirements. To illustrate the differences in the reporting requirements, the Proposed Levy Supported Operating Budget is presented using a modified accrual method format and the fully accrued PSAB format required as the result of the revised PSAB reporting requirements. The modified accrual format is presented on pages 4-6 in the budget document. The PSAB format, in compliance with PSAB guidelines, is presented in a summary form on page 4-4 to 4-5. The reconciliation of the two report types can be found at the bottom of page 4-4 to 4-5. Summary of the Proposed Levy Supported Operating Budget Net Levy Requirement The Net Levy Requirement is the amount that is required to come from property taxation to fund the net cost of the Proposed Budget. The Preliminary Budget is the first time that SLT sees the total consolidation of all the budget components and sees the Net Levy Requirement. Following review and revision of the Preliminary Budget, SLT provides the Proposed Budget for consideration by Council. Table 1 provides a comparison of the Net Levy Requirement for the Proposed Budget compared to the proposed and approved Net Levy Requirement for 2017 and Table 1: Comparison of Net Levy Requirement for 2017 to Details Council Approved Budget Preliminary Budget SLT Proposed Budget Council Approved Budget Preliminary Budget SLT Proposed Budget Net Levy Requirement 79,627,300 86,365,200 85,197,300 84,261,800 94,424,300 91,539,800 % Increase Over 2017 Approved 8.5 % 7.0 % 5.8 % % Increase Over 2018 Approved 12.1% 8.6 %

11 FS19-03 Page 9 of 17 Major Base Budget Drivers Table 2 presents a summary of major base budget drivers impacting the Proposed Adjusted Budget and does not include any impacts as a result of Council Approved Initiatives, New Budget Initiatives, or Requisitions from Boards and Agencies. The Proposed Adjusted Budget, or Base Budget, is the cost, net of revenues, of providing the levels of service approved by Council in the approved 2018 Budget. This is, essentially, a business as usual budget with no provision for new services or for growth in levels of service beyond what was approved by Council in the 2018 Budget. The impact on the Proposed Adjusted Budget, or Base Budget, on the Net Levy Requirement is $6,348,800 and represents a 7.5% increase in the Net Levy Requirement over the approved 2018 Net Levy Requirement.

13 FS19-03 Page 11 of 17 Table 3 presents a summary of the adjustments to the Proposed Budget for Council Approved Initiatives and Proposed New Budget Initiatives that are recommended by SLT for Council consideration during budget review. Council Approved Initiatives are for adjustments to the Base Budget approved by Council during the year and represent an increase of $460,700 in the Net Levy Requirement for the Proposed Budget. New Budget Initiatives for enhancement or for new services recommended by SLT for consideration by Council represent a proposed increase of $468,500 or 0.6% to the Net Levy. During the initial review process, SLT reviewed all proposed New Budget Initiatives (NBI s), evaluating them utilizing the Operating Ranking Criteria approved by Council. At that time, direction was given by SLT to either rework the proposed NBI s or to consider alternative ways to meet the program goals through existing resources or through alternative resources. A copy of the Operating Ranking Criteria is included in the Council Approved and New Budget Initiatives package. All NBI s, including those that were amended as the result of SLT s direction, are included in the Proposed Budget for consideration by Council. Details of the New Budget Initiatives are provided under separate cover to facilitate reference during budget review.

In accordance with the Capital Financing Policy, Levy Funded Capital is for major capital expenditure where there is no Reserve or Reserve Fund available to fund the capital purchases, so funding must be provided from Tax Levies. The Proposed Operating Budget also includes an allocation for Operating Capital which is included in each of the Division/Department Budgets. Operating Capital is for acquisition of assets that are not classified as Tangible Capital Assets, including small tools, office furniture, office equipment, laboratory/testing equipment, etc. Table 4 provides a summary of funding for capital purposes approved in the Levy Supported Operating Budget for 2015 to 2018 and the amount included in the Proposed Budget: Table 4: Summary of Approved and Proposed Budget Allocations for Capital Expenditures Purpose 2015 Approved 2016 Approved 2017 Approved 2018 Approved Preliminary Proposed Operating Capital 1,023,400 1,139, , , , ,100 Levy Funded Capital 1,432,500 1,042, , ,900 1,517,500 1,444,500 Total Capital 2,455,900 2,182,000 1,690,500 1,830,800 2,116,500 1,987,600 Funded from Other Reserves/Recoveries (130,000) 0 (31,400) (81,900) (27,400) (38,800) Funded from Tax Levy 2,480,200 2,325,900 2,182,000 1,748,900 2,089,100 1,948,800

15 FS19-03 Page 13 of 17 The Preliminary Budget, presented to SLT, included $2,089,100 for net capital expenditures. During review of the Preliminary Budget, SLT revised the allocation for capital purposes to $1,948,800 through deferring a number of operating capital expenditures and funding a number of Levy Funded Capital projects from various Reserves and Reserve Funds. This represents an overall reduction in the amount of $140,300 to be funded from the Tax Levy. Assessment Changes In 1997, the Province introduced Current Value Assessment (CVA) as the basis for property taxation by municipalities. In 2012 the province announced that CVA values would be updated every four years with increases in CVA values being phased in over four years - and decreases in CVA values being implemented immediately and not phased in. The most recent assessment was conducted in 2016 for phase in from The effect of the change in CVA values for properties in Norfolk County is that the total residential assessment for taxation has increased an average of 4.7% over the total residential assessment for 2018 taxation. This increase is strictly the result in the change in CVA or market value and does not include any increase due to growth. Growth in assessment, for new properties coming into the assessment roll for taxation for the first time in, is approximately $79.8 million or 1.99% over the 2018 assessment. This growth in assessment will generate approximately $1.7 million in new tax revenue starting in. Impact on Property Taxes There are a number of factors that have an impact on property taxes from 2018 to, including: Updating of CVA values in 2018 for taxation in to 2020 Growth in assessment for new properties added to the tax roll for taxation for the first time Change in the Education Tax Rate provided by the Province The updating of CVA values for all properties represents an inflationary increase in the assessment roll and does not represent a true increase in assessment for taxation. This inflationary increase in CVA values cannot be used to generate new tax revenue. The increase in CVA values must be applied to reduce the base tax rate to create a revenue neutral situation which eliminates any false tax revenue increase resulting from the inflationary increase in assessment values.

16 FS19-03 Page 14 of 17 The Proposed Operating Budget, as presented in Tables 1, 2, 3, and 4 above, requires a Net Levy of $91,539,800 for County operating costs, which represents an increase of 8.6% over the approved 2018 Net Tax Levy. To determine the impact of the proposed 2018 Tax Rates on a residential property tax bill, both the Municipal Tax Rate and the Education Tax Rate have to be included. When there is a change in CVA, the province resets Education Tax Rates to offset the change in assessment values across the province. For the past several years, the Residential Education Tax Rate has been reduced by approximately 4.5% per year. It is anticipated that for, the Residential Education Rate will also be reduced; however, at the time of preparing this report Education Tax Rates were not available. For purposes of this report the Residential Education Tax Rate was reduced by 4.5%. Table 5A presents the Residential Tax Impact of the Proposed Levy Supported Operating Budget on a single family detached property. For this purpose we have used the median assessment value for a single family detached property as provided by MPAC which was $226,000 in 2018 and is $233,250 for.

17 FS19-03 Page 15 of 17 Table 5B: Comparison of Residential Tax Impact of Proposed and Approved Budgets for 2017 to Including County and Education Tax Rates SLT Proposed Budget 81,207,400 85,197,300 91,539,800 County Residential Tax Rate Impact 4.9% 4.3% 5.8% Net Tax Rate Impact Including Education Taxes 3.9% 3.3% 4.7% Council Approved Budget 79,627,300 84,261,800 To be County Residential Tax Rate Impact 2.8% 3.1% Determined Net Tax Rate Impact Including Education Taxes 2.1% 2.3% The Residential Tax Impacts presented above is based upon the average increase of 3.2% in the median CVA value for single family detached residential properties across the County. The tax impact on an individual residential property will vary depending upon the actual increase in CVA for that property compared to the average for properties with an increase in CVA below the average, the tax impact will be lower and for properties with assessment increases in excess of the average, the tax impact will be greater. Financial Services Comments: The Proposed Levy Supported Operating Budget sets out the net operating costs to maintain current service levels provided by Norfolk County including Council Approved Initiatives and requests for new initiatives to either continue/maintain services or provide new or additional services. Interdepartmental Implications: The levy supported operating budget includes charges for a variety of services from other divisions/departments and also includes a recoveries from the rate supported operating budget to offset various costs.

18 FS19-03 Page 16 of 17 Long Point Conservation Authority Grand River Conservation Authority Strategic Plan Linkage: Annual operating budget processes take into account the broad directions of Norfolk County s Strategic Plan which provides a basis for decision making. Conclusion: Throughout the budget process, staff have worked diligently to review budget submissions in order to arrive at the current net levy requirement submitted within this report. The Proposed Budget as submitted does not include any measures that would negatively impact programs and services. During the deliberation process, the goal is to set an appropriate budget level while balancing the need to limit tax increases while still maintaining and protecting current service levels. The Proposed Budget has been prepared based on a business as usual budget in order to maintain current approved service levels adjusted on the basis of any approved reports during the year to expand services, plus additional requests for Council s consideration. In addition, as in prior years, this budget also includes further investments for capital infrastructure. It is recommended that Council adopt the Proposed Levy Supported Operating Budget and associated adjustments to levels of services provided. Recommendation(s): THAT Report FS RE: Proposed Levy Supported Operating Budget be received as information; AND THAT the Levy Supported Operating Budget, with a Net Levy Requirement of $91,539,800, be approved; AND FURTHER THAT any surplus or deficit generated from General Operations be contributed to or offset from the Contingency Reserve; AND FURTHER THAT Council approve staff attendance at out of province staff development and training as outlined in Section 5, pages 5-4 and 5-8 of the Proposed Levy Supported Operating Budget document.

20 GUIDE TO FULL TIME EQUIVALENTS (FTE) REPORT Included in the annual levy supported operating budget is a corporate summary of Full Time Equivalents (FTE) by division. The following chart provides the reader with clarification of the details included in each column of the FTE report. The FTE do not include Water and Wastewater Operations, Norfolk County Public Library, and Police Services and approved accommodated positions. COLUMN Approved 2018 Full-Time Equivalents Budget Adjustment/Program Cancellation DESCRIPTION OF COLUMN This column represents the FTE included in the Approved 2018 Levy Supported Operating Budget. This column represents the details of FTE that have moved between cost centres, programs with FTE that have been cancelled or ended, and minor adjustments to FTE complement. The financial impacts of these adjustments have been included in the Proposed Levy Supported Operating Budget. Annualization of 2018 Council Approved Initiatives This column represents the annualized impact in of the approved initiatives included in the Approved 2018 Levy Supported Operating Budget. Current County practices provide for the impact of new budget initiatives based on the projected months of service within the cost centre they are allocated to. As a result, proposed increases in the current budget year are pro-rated for the portion of the year to which they relate. Consequentially these changes can have positive/negative levy impacts in future years. Council Approved Initiatives This column represents the proposed effect on FTE in based on service level changes that have been adopted/approved by Council (via reports to Council during the year prior to adoption of the annual budget). New Budget Initiatives This column represents the applicable impacts on FTE of the proposed new budget initiatives ranked 1, 2 and 3 by SLT and included in the Proposed Levy Supported Operating Budget. Total Full-Time Equivalents This column represents the total FTE included in the Proposed Levy Supported Operating Budget. It is the sum of all the aforementioned columns. Increase/(Decrease) FTE This column represents the difference between the Total Full- Time Equivalents column and the 2018 Approved Full-Time Equivalents column. 2-1
