City of Hamilton BUDGET SUMMARY REPORT 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget Introduction The City s Vision is To be the best place to raise a child and age successfully and The City s Mission is To provide high quality cost conscious public services that contribute to a healthy, safe and prosperous community, in a sustainable manner. The 2017 Tax Supported Operating Budget supports the City s Vision and Mission through the delivery of 89 s, every day, across the seven (7) Priorities of the 2016 2025 Strategic Plan. The 2016 2025 Strategic Plan was built on the more than 54,000 resident and 3,200 staff conversations that took place as part of the Our Future Hamilton initiative and is strongly rooted around the five pillars of Our Culture. For the remainder of the current Term of Council (2014 2018), Council has identified strategic directions related to three (3) of the seven (7) priority areas to focus our work. The Priorities of the Strategic Plan and the desired outcomes the City is working towards every day, as well as the Term of Council Strategic Directions are noted below. In addition, continued effort is being put towards demonstrating value for money to residents and businesses. A focus for continuous improvement over the next two years must be to continue to support the investments made by Council over the past number of years, leveraging both the investments we have made across our community and in the people that work for the City and the processes that support them. Continuing to move the organization forward in this regard will contribute to enhancing the City s overall financial sustainability and position of strength in the Greater Toronto Hamilton Area (GTHA) and beyond. 1

City of Hamilton BUDGET SUMMARY REPORT 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget Built Environment and Infrastructure Hamilton is supported by state of the art infrastructure, transportation options, buildings and public spaces that create a dynamic City.

Our seventh priority - Our People & Performance, is perhaps the most important because it s about you, your work and gaining the trust and confidence of our citizens. Budget Process Submitted for Council s consideration is the 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget. The Tax Supported Operating Budget is one component of the City s overall annual expenditure plan and supports the delivery of all the City s services with the exception of water/wastewater/storm which is Rate supported. Both the Tax and Rate supported service groups have infrastructure requirements which are funded by their respective capital budgets. The 2017 User Fees, the 2017 Rate Operating and Capital Budgets and the 2017 Tax Capital Budget have already been submitted to Council for approval. 3

City of Hamilton BUDGET SUMMARY REPORT 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget The following table highlights the consolidated gross expenditure preliminary budgets for the City combining Tax and Rate supported services: 2017 Preliminary Consolidated City Budget Gross Expenditures Rate Tax Total Operating $200.7M $1,485.1M $1,685.8M Capital $186.7M $289.3M $476.0M Total $387.4M $1,774.4M $2,161.8M Note: Does not include Referred Items or Enhancements The Preliminary Tax Budget Outlook was presented to the General Issues Committee (GIC) on September 21, 2016 (FCS16070) advising of an estimated levy increase for 2017 of $42.1 million which would result in an average residential tax increase of 4.2%, with an estimated assessment growth of 1.0%. After consideration of the report, at their September 28, 2016 meeting City Council approved the following tax budget guideline for 2017: That all City departments target a 2017 operating budget guideline, based on an increase of 1.8%, and that any increase beyond the guideline be forwarded for consideration with an appropriate explanation. The 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget, as submitted, does not include any measures that would negatively impact programs and services. During the deliberation process, which is expected to be completed by early March, staff will engage Council in an effort to progress to an appropriate budget which balances the need to limit tax increases while protecting services. All budgets will be presented and deliberated at General Issues Committee (GIC). As such, the budget book formats are consistent with previous years, in that two documents have been produced. Book One is a summary of the 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget. Book Two contains the Departmental Overviews and respective budget submissions. 4

City of Hamilton BUDGET SUMMARY REPORT 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget - Tax Impact The 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget, as submitted, requires a levy increase of $34 million. Adjusting for an estimated assessment growth of 0.6%, the average residential municipal tax increase that would be required as a result of the preliminary budget is $123 or 3.7%, exclusive of any potential reassessment impacts discussed later in this report. This compares favourably to the 2017 Budget Outlook presented to the General Issues Committee (GIC) in September of 2016. The Outlook projected a 2017 Tax Supported Operating Budget levy increase of $42.1 million and a 4.2% tax increase. While the levy requirement significantly decreased by $8.1 M, the tax impact did not decrease as much due to revised assessment growth estimates. In September, staff were estimating assessment growth of 1.0%. However, more recent projections from MPAC lead to a reduced growth assumption of 0.6%. The average tax impact would have been 3.3% if the 1.0% growth had materialized. The table below highlights the municipal tax increase by major component: 2017 MUNICIPAL PRELIMINARY IMPACT FOR THE AVERAGE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY TAX BILL (Excludes Education Levy) Municipal Taxes 2017 Impact (Average Residential) Draft $ % City Departments $ 70 2.13% Boards & Agencies $ 20 0.60% Capital Financing $ 16 0.50% Total Municipal Taxes $ 106 3.23% PTIF 1 $ 16 0.45% Total Municipal Taxes $ 123 3.68% (*) Assumes 0.6% growth 1 PTIF: City s matching contribution to the Federal grant program - Public Transit Infrastructure Fund 5

City of Hamilton BUDGET SUMMARY REPORT 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget As indicated in the table, the tax impact attributable to City departments is about 2.1%. The Boards and Agencies tax impact is 0.6%, subject to approval of the Police s budget (currently the budget assumes a 5 year average). An increase of 0.95% is recommended for the capital levy; 0.5% to support normal capital infrastructure replacement and 0.45% representing the City s planned matching contribution to the Federal Government s Public Transit Infrastructure Fund (PTIF) grant program. The total of these four components results in a municipal preliminary residential property tax impact of 3.7% to maintain existing service levels. A new reassessment cycle will commence in 2017. Property values have been updated province-wide by the Municipal Provincial Assessment Corporation based on their Current Value Assessment (CVA) as of January 2016 and the new assessment will be phased over a period of four years (2017-2020). Preliminary data indicates that residential property values in Hamilton have increased 6.9% annually on average. It is important to note that an increased assessment does not necessarily result in higher property taxes. A property increasing above the average will likely experience a tax increase, while properties with an assessment increase below the average may not experience an increase. A number of other factors will determine a property s tax change including reassessment shifts from other tax classes, the budget and education tax rate change (provincial). Additional information will be presented in the Reassessment section of the report. Also of note, contained within the present submission, but not included in the preliminary budget impact of 3.7%, are several recommended enhancements as well as a number of items that have been previously presented to Council that were referred to the budget process. These items, if all were approved as currently submitted, would increase the residential tax impact by 0.12%. Additional information can be found in Appendix 1-5 and Appendix 1-6. 6

City of Hamilton BUDGET SUMMARY REPORT 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget - Summary The 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget identifies a levy requirement of $861.9 million, which represents a levy increase of $34.2 million or 4.1% over 2016. The following table highlights the preliminary budgets by major component: 2017 Preliminary Tax Budget Net Operating Budget 2016 2017 Change 2017/2016 Budget $ Preliminary $ $ % Total City Departments 515,873,990 536,571,290 20,697,300 4.0% Boards & Agencies 200,264,310 206,214,130 5,949,820 3.0% Capital Financing 111,529,400 115,529,400 4,000,000 3.6% Total Maintenance Levy 827,667,700 858,314,820 30,647,120 3.7% PTIF 1 3,600,000 3,600,000 100.0% Total Preliminary Operating Budget 827,667,700 861,914,820 34,247,120 4.1% Total Residential Average Property Tax Impact 3.7% 1 PTIF: City s matching contribution to the Federal grant program - Public Transit Infrastructure Fund 7

City of Hamilton BUDGET SUMMARY REPORT 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget City Departments The 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget for City Departments is increasing by approximately $20.8 million or 4.0%. This results in an average residential tax increase of 2.1% or $70 for the average home. 8

City of Hamilton BUDGET SUMMARY REPORT 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget The previous table summarizes the most significant items by department. Employee Related pressures of $14.9 million are the primary driver for the departmental budgets. Additional details in respect of Employee Related costs are provided in a subsequent section. Other significant pressures include Social Housing, Operating Impacts from Capital, Tim Hortons Field, the Ten Year Transit Strategy, Winter Control and Waste Management. Departmental Budget Pressures The Community & Emergency s Department has an overall pressure of $5.5 million mainly driven by a $3.1 million increase in the Housing division resulting from decreased social housing funding of $1.3 million and other social housing expenses such as property taxes and provincial benchmarks amounting to $1.6 million. Increased expenses are mitigated to some extent by mortgage savings and increase in market-rates rent collected by providers. The Hamilton Fire Department is increasing by $2.8 million driven mainly by employee related expenditures; Recreation is increasing by $1.3 million which includes employee related expenditures of $0.5 million and maintenance and utility costs of $0.9 million. For 2017 Ontario Works is estimating a provincial upload of -$3.4 million. The Public Works Department budget is increasing by $8.4 million. The most significant increases are the approval of the Transit PTIF operating costs of $2.4 million, Tim Hortons Field maintenance for $1.6 million, and Winter Control of $0.4 million. The remaining increase is primarily related to employee related expenditures, which is partially offset by an adjustment in the DARTS contract amount of $1.5 million. Non-Departmental Pressures Operating Impacts from Capital are adding a $2.2 million pressure, which is the result of previously approved capital projects in areas such as transit, roads and open space development (parks, trails), among others. Other items impacting the Corporate Financials include $0.3 million to fund purchase of the lands of Parkside Secondary School and $0.5 million for tax write offs. Increases in Payments in Lieu of Taxes revenue of $0.5 million partially alleviate the pressures. 10

City of Hamilton BUDGET SUMMARY REPORT 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget Employee Related Costs As previously mentioned, Employee Related pressures continue to be one of the major items driving the overall budget increase with an increase of $14.9 million or 2.6%. The most significant increases relate to contractual settlements and provisions of $7.5 million, representing approximately 51% of the total pressure. Employee Related Expenses (Estimated Gross) COLA / Settlements Annualizations/Approvals Merit/Step Increases/Job Changes Overtime OMERS HWRF Pension Employer Benefits Government Benefits Other Total of Employee Related Expenses $7.5M $1.6M $1.2M $0.9M $1.2M $0.6M ($0.2M) $0.5M $1.5M $14.9M Boards & Agencies The 2017 Boards and Agencies budget is increasing about $5.9 million or 3.0% (excluding capital financing), which represents a tax impact for the average residential property of 0.6%. The largest increase relates to Police s and is based on a 5 year average (3.2%). The Hamilton Police budget will be considered by the Police s Board on December 15, 2016. Staff will update Council during budget presentations. As well, all Boards and Agencies present their budgets at General Issues Committee on January 24 th and 26 th (2017). 11

City of Hamilton BUDGET SUMMARY REPORT 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget Capital Financing The 2017 Tax Capital Budget levy requirement is increasing by $7.6 million representing a 0.95% tax impact (including PTIF) for the average residential property. Preliminary Capital Tax Budget Levy 2017 Change $ Tax Impact % Capital Funding Plan $4.0M 0.50% PTIF Capital Investments $3.6M 0.45% Total $7.6M 0.95% Consistent with the forecast in the 2016 Budget, the 2017 Tax Supported Operating Budget includes a tax impact increase of 0.5% to fund the capital budget. For 2017, the capital levy increase of $4.0 million will support projects such as the West Harbour and Waterfront Initiatives, Roads (maintenance & replacement), Waste Management (landfills, transfer stations) and Transit services (bus replacement & expansion, maintenance & storage facility). As well, an additional $3.6M, equivalent to a 0.45% tax increase, is being requested to fund the debt charges associated with the City s share of the investment through the Public Transit Infrastructure Fund (PTIF). The Federal Government of Canada through Infrastructure Ontario has been requested to provide funding of $36.5 million with the City funding an additional $36.5 million ($29.3 million net of development charges) for PTIF projects totalling $73 million. The external debt issue to support the projects results in debt charges of $3.6 million over 10 years. PTIF funding is contingent on program approval. Some of the capital projects funded through PTIF include the transit maintenance and storage facility, HSR bus expansion program, transit shelter expansion and rehabilitation and automated passenger counters. This budget is presented in detail in the 2017 Tax Supported Capital Budget process. 13

City of Hamilton BUDGET SUMMARY REPORT 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget 2017 Reassessment This is the first year of a new reassessment cycle. Three significant items that impact the total property tax change are currently unknown. First, assessment growth is assumed to be 0.6% for 2017 taxation. This is down considerably from the 1.6% assessment growth in 2015. This may be a temporary issue given that the Municipal Provincial Assessment Corporation s (that provides the City with the assessment roll), resources were primarily focused on the 2017 reassessment which possibly delayed capturing new properties. Again, this information is preliminary and the final assessment growth analysis will be available in January. The second unknown is the potential impact on the residential class of reassessment tax shifts. Preliminary data indicates that the residential class property values increased at a rate much higher than the other main tax classes. This is estimated to increase residential taxes by 1.2% in 2017. The Province provides municipalities with the option to offset reassessment tax shifts between property classes by establishing transition ratios. During the budget process, staff will present Council with alternatives including transition ratios and tax policy tools which may help to mitigate the tax shifts due to reassessment. Based on the preliminary data, the residential property values have increased 6.9% annually on average across the City. Overall, there are no additional taxes raised as a result of reassessment. An increase in assessment does not necessarily mean an increase in property taxes. In general terms, a property whose assessment is increasing above the city-wide average may see a reassessmentrelated tax increase; conversely, a property whose assessment is increasing less than the average, may see a reassessment-related tax decrease. When the assessment changes are analysed by Ward, the average change varies. Based on the preliminary data, the average tax impact from the reassessment varies from -1.7% to 2.1%. The third unknown is the impact of the education tax rates. Uniform education tax rates have been prescribed for properties in the residential, multi-residential, farm and managed forest property classes, which apply to the entire province and are calculated based on the provincial average. Business education tax rates are set for each upper and single-tier jurisdiction individually. During the last reassessment cycle, the City s average residential assessment was lower than the provincial average thus receiving a benefit in terms of a reduced tax impact. This reassessment cycle projects that the City will have an average assessment above the provincial one, and as such, it is expected that the City will see an education tax increase. Staff will provide an update to Council once the Province has announced the education tax rates. 14

City of Hamilton BUDGET SUMMARY REPORT 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget Potential Impact The combined municipal tax impact of the budget pressures and the reassessment shifts may result in an average tax increase of 4.9% or $162. The average impact by Ward could range from 3.2% to 7.0%. The table below summarizes the potential municipal impact: Residential Impact Current Tax Impact Reassessment (Class shifts) Reassessment (Ward shifts) 3.7% 1.2% -1.7% 2.1% Potential Municipal Impact 3.2% 7.0% City- wide average 4.9% Education Impact is not known at this time Staff will update Council of any mitigation measures resulting from the final data to be released by MPAC in mid-december and the options available to municipalities. 15

City of Hamilton BUDGET SUMMARY REPORT 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget Further Budget Mitigation The task of achieving the desired tax levy and tax impact will involve a balance between the need to find levy reductions (reduce expenses or increase revenue) and the desire to protect services and programs. The following chart estimates the levy reduction required to achieve certain benchmark tax impacts, with the potential municipal tax impact of 4.9% as the starting point: 2017 REDUCTION SCENARIOS Levy Residential Reductions Increase Tax Incr.* Preliminary Budget $ 34,200,000 4.9% Total Reductions Of $ (15,200,000) $ 19,000,000 3.0% Total Reductions Of $ (24,000,000) $ (5,000,000) 1.8% * Potential Impact Includes Residential Municipal Tax Increase and Reassessment Class Shifts Note - Excludes potential increases due to 2017 Enhancements and Referred Items Approximately $8 million is required to adjust the municipal tax impact by 1% Note that the chart above does not provide for the Council Referred Items included in Appendix 1-5 or the Recommended Enhancements included in Appendix 1-6. Staff Complement The 2017 Preliminary Complement, exclusive of Boards & Agencies, has a net increase of 1.3 Full Time Equivalents (FTE) compared to the 2016 Restated Complement. 16

For 2017, the Operating Impacts from Capital would increase the total Complement by 14.04 FTE, with the most significant increase due to Roads and Open Space Development projects. The net decrease of 12.7 FTE in the 2017 preliminary budget includes a decrease of 30.0 FTE as part of the OW Caseload Contingency Plan and an increase of 29.0 FTE in Transit as part of the Provincial Transit Infrastructure Fund (PTIF), as well as other minor adjustments across departments. Appendix 1-4 provides a complement summary including footnotes explaining all of the complement changes. As well, the departmental presentations will provide additional information with respect to complement changes. 17

City of Hamilton BUDGET SUMMARY REPORT 2017 Preliminary Tax Supported Operating Budget Council Referred Items & Recommended Enhancements During 2016, a number of items were considered at Council via staff report or Councillor s Motion that were referred to the budget process for further discussion. Beyond the Council Referred Items, there are several enhancements which are recommended as being introduced in this budget. Senior Leadership Team considered a number of items during their review of the 2017 Budget, but in consideration of the budget target (1.8%) and the list of Council Referred Items, it was decided to proceed with a list of requests with minimal levy impact. Appendix 1-5 provides additional information and detail sheets for these Council Referred Items. The eight Council Referred Items represent a total increase of $1 million and additional 1.7 FTE.
