County Council strives to develop a budget that ensures long term sustainability and a limited tax increase while maintaining essential and valued services, stated Warden Bill Lowry. This can be a challenge especially with inflationary pressures, ever changing grant structures and a growing infrastructure gap. I believe this budget represents a balance between these fiscal pressures and our commitment to provide excellent service delivery to our residents, he added. County of Lennox & Addington Budget - 4

18 Program Summary: The County has approximately 425 employees (327 FTEs) represented by 5 unions and a significant non union group. Benefits include the following: o Statutory Benefits (EI, CPP, EHT etc.) o Actuarial Benefits (WSIB, retirement allowance/retirement benefits) o Pension Benefits (OMERS) o Employee Benefits (EHC, dental, vision, disability & life etc.) Employee benefits are provide by Sun Life under a joint arrangement with several other local municipalities Accomplishments: The collective agreements with the Ontario Nurse s Association and OPSEU (Social Services) were successfully negotiated in The two OPSEU collective agreements with paramedics and the CUPE agreement with the service workers at The John M. Parrott Centre remain outstanding. The Sun Life benefit renewal on October 1 resulted in significant increases in extended health care, dental and long term disability premiums. However, since 2012, benefit premiums have only increased by 1.3% per annum. Actuarial benefits have also experienced a significant increase in The County self-insures for these benefits. Every three years an actuary assesses the experience and based on that review recommends the amount that should be provided each year to meet the future cost for these benefits. The 2017 increase is primarily due to an increase in WSIB claim costs, particularly related to PTSD claims Highlights: The increase in FTEs is primarily due to the introduction of 12 hours of paramedic service coverage in Stone Mills, effective July 1, 2018, behavioural support staffing at the JMPC and the impact of Bill 148, which provides for two days of paid personal emergency leave for all staff. This has a more pronounced effect on departments which need to replace staff (JMPC, Paramedic Services, Library Services) Staffing is also impacted by the annualization of changes implemented in 2017 (Roads/POA) and a reorganization of resources within the social services department.

20 REVENUES Grants & Subsidies Grants & Subsidies are estimated to be approximately $34.8 million in Most of the grants are determined based upon formulas which differ by Ministry depending on the program being funded. Social Services, Paramedic Services and the John M. Parrott Centre receive a significant portion of their funding from grant revenue. The increase in grant revenue is primarily due to the upload of social assistance costs to the Province (this is the final year) and increases in 100% funding for Children s Services. Municipal Recoveries The bulk of Municipal recoveries are received from the County of Prince Edward for their share of the social assistance, children s services and housing & homelessness programs. The County is the Consolidated Municipal Service Manager for Lennox & Addington & Prince Edward. Municipal Recoveries have declined due to Prince Edward s share of the budget declining from 37.12% to 36.13%. The formula takes into consideration the relative share of weighted assessment, social assistance caseload and housing units in each County. User Fees & Service Charges User Fees & Service Charges primarily consist of resident co-payment fees at the John M. Parrott Centre which are determined based upon provincial guidelines. Rental & Investment Income Most of the County s rental income comes from tenants of the County s directly owned social housing units (414 units). The County also leases space to other agencies in its buildings, including provincial courts in the County Courthouse and the Memorial Building. Investment Income is expected to increase in 2018 due to improved cash flow and rising interest rates. Fines & Penalties Fines & Penalties primarily consists of fines received from the enforcement of provincial offences. The County has no control over the level of enforcement so the budget amount can be difficult to predict. For 2018, revenue is budgeted to increase based upon prior experience and trends. Other Revenue Other revenue consists primarily of payments in lieu of taxes from government properties and supplementary taxes added to the tax roll during the course of the year. It also includes miscellaneous departmental revenue including permit fees, solar revenue and laundry recoveries in social housing units. County of Lennox & Addington Budget - 20

21 Transfers to/(from) Reserves Transfers to/from Reserves are generally used to balance departmental capital levy requirements to the desired level, which is based upon an assessment of the long term replacement needs.

The 2018 budget reflects a similar transfer. Salaries & Benefits EXPENDITURES Salaries & Benefits consists of the compensation costs for the County s employees (approximately 425 employees).
