Highlights of Fiscal Year 1990-91 Recommended Budget
FROM:
RE:
The following is important information regarding the fiscal
year 1990-91 recommended budget.
When we
exceeded
meant a
contains
started the budget process, requested expenditures
available revenues by $6,906,180. This would have
tax increase of 14 cents. The recommended budget
a tax increase of 1.5 cents.
The increase of 1.5 cents in the tax rate will increase the tax
bill of a homeowner with a $75,000 house by $11.25 a year.
A penny of the tax rate is worth $485,000.
The major increases in the recommended budget are due to
funding for the New Hanover County Schools and the Department
of Social Services. The increase in the General Fund budget,
excluding DSS and the Schools, is 4 percent, which is less than
the growth in property taxes (7 percent).
Major Increases in the recommended budget are as follows:
1) A 7.5 percent increase in the County's General Fund
contribution to the New Hanover County Schools is
recommended. A 10 percent increase in operating and
capital was requested, which exceeds the recommended
amount by $331,453. The increase in the County's
contribution is $1,054,362, which is equivalent to 2.2
cents of the tax rate.

2) The DSS recommended budget represents an increase of
$1,324,795 or 23 percent in County dollars. This is
equivalent to 2.7 cents of the tax rate. DSS requested a
$1,856,248 increase. The recommended increase is due to
the Welfare Reform Act and additional demands on the
assistance programs.
3) DSS will not provide the Chore Program in FY 1990-91;
therefore, the 14 Chore positions will be eliminated
(program will be provided by a community organization).
Nine DSS/Community Social Service Assistants positions
are recommended to provide in-home services and strengthen
services to children and families, and four Social Worker
II positions are recommended for the JOBS Program (13
recommended positions for DSS).
4) County funding for the Department of Aging has increased
by $72,643 or 33 percent. The major reasons for the
increase are a 21 percent increase in the cost of meals
and increased funding for transportation.
5) An amount of $600,000 is recommended as the County's
contribution to the Southeastern Mental Health Center,
which is a 14 percent increase over the current fiscal
year and $57,953 less than the requested amount.
NOTE:
Of Southeastern's $131,520 increase in requested funds
from New Hanover County, $69,847 is for the Substance
Abuse & Treatment Center (Detox) operations and $61,673 is
for general operations.
6) An amount of $790,000 is recommended as the County's
contribution to the Airport, which is $10,000 less than
the estimated County contribution for FY 1990-91, as
stated in the Airport Authority Business Plan. This is an
increase of $263,528 over the current year contribution.
7) An amount of $1,500,000 is recommended for transfer to the
Airport capital project. This is in accordance with the
financial plan approved by the County Commissioners on
November 14, 1988, for the terminal project.
8) An amount of $100,000 is recommended for this year's match
for the CDBG housing rehabilitation program.

.
9) A total of 70 positions was requested. In the General
Fund, 15 positions are recommended and 18 will be
eliminated, which results in a net decrease of 3
positions.
10) Seven positions are recommended in the Resource Recovery
Fund and one in the Water and Sewer Fund.
11) Due to implementation of the coordinated human service
transportation system, DSS will eliminate two positions
and the Department of Aging will eliminate one position.
These positions are not being eliminated as a cost savings
measure, but because the departments feel they can better
serve their clients through other means.

17)
No reclassifications or upgrades of positions are
recommended, except those mandated by the State.
Funds are recommended in the amount of $629,867 to
continue the merit program.
An amount of $100,000 is recommended to fund a pay and
classification study.
An amount of $75,000 is recommended in Non-Departmental,
which provides for greater liability insurance coverage.
An amount of $60,000 is recommended to start planning a
new payroll system for the County.
In the Commissioners' office budget, $20,000 is
recommended for an annual report to be mailed to all
households in the County and $12,000 to advertise in the
newspaper all agendas for regularly scheduled
Commissioners' meetings.
18) All outside agencies are recommended at current year
amounts, except for the human services agencies. The
Human Services Allocation Advisory Committee's
recommendation keeps the total for these agencies at the
same amount as current year.

The following actions are recommended to close the budget gap:
1) Fund balance in the amount of $2,250,000 is appropriated,
which represents over $.04 of the tax rate.
2) An amount of $540,000 was requested for a new mid-south
branch library. An amount of $67,500 is recommended for
1/2 year of payments on the branch library and that it be
financed over five years. The State approved a grant for
the branch library in the amount of $50,000.

to increase from $28/ton to $36/ton.
6) An amount of $189,500 was requested for a new computer
system at the Health Department. An amount of $23,700 is
recommended for 1/2 year's funding of debt payments.
7) Several expenditures will be postponed or spread out over
several years, which will affect future budgets ( i. e. ,

Following are some additional items that I think you should be
aware of in the FY 1990-91 budget:
1) This will be the first year of operation for the
coordinated human service transportation system, which
for budget purposes is set up as a new department in the
General Fund with expenditures of $246,385 and revenues of
$212,399. There will be positions eliminated in the
County (3) and in other human service agencies because of
the coordinated transportation system. Hopefully, the
County or the private transportation provider will be able
to absorb the affected employees.
2) In addition to the $2,250,000 fund balance appropriated,
approximately $4.7 million of fund balance will be used in
completing the airport terminal building next year. This
is in accordance with the financial plan for the airport
terminal approved by the County Commissioners on November
14, 1988. This totals $7 million, which is approximately
46 percent of the undesignated fund balance. This could
drastically effect the County's interest earnings and
overall investment program and cause a tight strain on the
working capital.
3) The cost of the Hazardous Materials Response Contract with
the City of Wilmington in the amount of $49,040 is
recommended in the Fire Service District Fund, not the
General Fund, as it'is a service to the people in the Fire
Service District.
If you have any questions or would like additional information,
please feel free to call either Cam McAbee, Management and
Budget Director, or me.

1 - REVIEW OF BUDGET PREPARATION PROCESS
In order to familiarize myself with the functions of each
department as well as to learn about their funding request for FY
1990-91, my staff and I met with the administrative staff of
each County Department, Southeastern Center, Cape Fear Community
College, New Hanover County Schools, Clerk of Court, and the
Airport. We discussed with the departmental staffs the
priorities in their funding request as well as alternate means
for providing services to the public.
After a careful review of all the departmental requests (which
would have required a 14 cents tax increase), General Fund
expenditure requests were reduced by $4,330,557, from $71,893,693
to $67,563,136.
After a thorough analysis, revenue estimates were increased by
$2,575,623 from $64,987,513 to $67,563,136.
In order to balance the budget, a
recommended and fund balance in
appropriated. In future budgets
appropriate fund balance in this
unappropriated fund balance to
financial position.
tax increase of 1.5 cents is
the amount of $2,250,000 is
it may not be possible to
amount and maintain adequate
sustain the County's strong
While many difficult decisions had to be made, the budget
maintains the present level of service.
Hopefully in, future budgets some of the worthwhile requests for
funding that are not included in this recommended budget can be
funded.

6 - PRESENTATION OF OTHER FUNDS
In addition to the General Fund, the following funds are also
included in the County budget,
Special Revenue Funds - are used to account for revenues from
earmarked sources which are designated to finance particular
functions or activities of government.
Room Occupancy Tax - tax (3%) is used 75% for erosion
control and 25% tourism promotion; FY 1990-91 Recommended
Budget is $1.2 million.
Special Fire District - ad valorem tax ($.04/$100) is used
to fund the volunteer fire fighting effort in the
unincorporated areas of the County; FY 1990-91 Recommended
Budget is $986,000.
It should be noted that in the Recommended Budget, funds in
the amount of $49,040 are included to provide hazardous
material fire service to the citizens in the Fire Service
District.
Enterprise Funds - are' used to account for operations that are
financed and operated in a manner similar to private business
enterprises. It has been the intent of the County Commissioners
that the costs of providing such services be fully or
predominantly financed through user fees.
Water and Sewer - accounts for water and sewer services
provided to a portion of the county and related sewer
construction projects. It should be noted that ad valorem
taxes are not levied for this purpose; user fees, 1/2~ sales
tax proceeds, and bonds provide the necessary revenues.
Resource Recovery - accounts for the landfill operations,
the resource recovery facility operations, construction
projects, and solid waste planning.
It should be noted that the tipping fees in this fund are
proposed to increase from $28/ton to $36/ton in the
recommended budget.
Other Funds
One-Half Cent Sales Tax Fund - accounts for funds received from
the total of two half-cent local sales and use taxes, to be used
for school capital outlay and for water and sewer expenditures.
New Hanover County Schools Fund encompasses all County
expenditures for the Schools including: current operating
expenses, capital outlay expenses, bond-related expenses, and
capital project expenditures. Revenues are transfers from the
General Fund and proceeds from the half-cent sales tax.

Highlights of Fiscal Year 1990-91 Recommended
Budget Prepared for the New Hanover County Board
of Commissioners
FROM:
RE:
The following is important information of which I feel you
should be aware regarding the fiscal year 1990-91 recommended
budget.
When we
exceeded
meant a
contains
started the budget process, requested expenditures
available revenues by $6,906,180. This would have
tax increase of 14 cents. The recommended budget
a tax increase of 1.5 cents.
The increase of 1.5 cents in the tax rate will increase the tax
bill of a homeowner with a $75,000 house by $11.25 a year.
A penny of the tax rate is worth $485,000.
The ,major increases in the recommended budget are due to
funding for the New Hanover County Schools and the Department
of Social Services. The increase in the General Fund budget,
excluding DSS and the Schools, is 4 percent, which is less than
the growth in property taxes (7 percent).
Major Increases in the recommended budget are as follows:
1) A 7.5 percent increase in the County's General Fund
contribution to the New Hanover County Schools is
recommended. A 10 percent increase in operating and
capital was requested, which exceeds the recommended
amount by $331,453. The increase in the County's
contribution is $1,054,362, which is equivalent to 2.2
cents of the tax rate.
.
MEMORANDUM

2) The DSS recommended budget represents an increase of
$1,324,795 or 23 percent in County dollars. This is
equivalent to 2.7 cents of the tax rate. DSS requested a
$1,856,248 increase. The recommended increase is due to
the Welfare Reform Act and additional demands on the
assistance programs.
3) DSS will not provide the Chore Program in FY 1990-91;
therefore, the 14 Chore positions will be eliminated
(program will be provided by a community organization).
Nine DSS/Community Social Service Assistants positions
are recommended to provide in-home services and strengthen
services to children and families, and four Social Worker
II positions are recommended for the JOBS Program (13
recommended positions for DSS).
.
4) County funding for the Department of Aging has increased
by $72,643 or 33 percent. The major reasons for the
increase are a 21 percent increase in the cost of meals
and increased funding for transportation.
5) An amount of $600,000 is recommended as the County's
contribution to the Southeastern Mental Health Center,
which is a 14 percent increase over the' current fiscal
year and $57,953 less than the requested amount.
NOTE:
Of Southeastern's $131,520 increase in requested funds
from New Hanover County, $69,847 is for the Substance
Abuse & Treatment Center (Detox) operations and $61,673 is
for general operations.
6) An amount of $790,000 is recommended as the County's
contribution to the Airport, which is $10,000 less than
the estimated County contribution for FY 1990-91, as
stated in the Airport Authority Business Plan. This is an
increase of $263,528 over the current year contribution.
7 )
An amount of $1,500,000 is recommended for transfer to
Airport capital project. This is in accordance with
financial plan approved by the County Commissioners
November 14, 1988, for the terminal project.

9) A total of 70 positions was requested. In the General
Fund, 15 positions are recommended and 18 will be
eliminated, which results in a net decrease of 3
positions.
10) Seven positions are recommended in the Resource Recovery
Fund and one in the Water and Sewer Fund.
11) Due to implementation of the coordinated human service
transportation system, DSS will eliminate two positions
and the Department of Aging will eliminate one position.
These positions are not being eliminated as a cost savings
measure, but because the departments feel they can better
serve their clients through other means.
12) No reclassifications or upgrades of positions are
recommended, except those mandated by the State.

new payroll system for the County.

Office's budget for an annual report to be mailed to all

are funds in the amount of $12,000 to advertise in the
newspaper all agendas for regularly scheduled
Commissioners' meetings.
18) All outside agencies are recommended at current year
amounts, except for the human services agencies. The
Human Services Allocation Advisory Committee's

The following actions are recommended to close the budget gap:
1) Fund balance in the amount of $2,250,000 is appropriated,
which represents over $.04 of the tax rate.
2) An amount of $540,000 was requested for a new mid-south
branch library. An amount of $67,500 is recommended for
1/2 year of payments on the branch library and that it be
financed over five years. The State approved a grant for
the branch library in the amount of $50,000.

system at the Health Department. An amount of $23,700
is recommended for 1/2 year's funding of debt payments.
8) Several expenditures are postponed or spread out over
several years, which will affect future budgets (i. e. ,
operating costs related to the opening of the Museum,
computers, vehicles, and the branch library will be
financed over several years).

11) Some of the County's telephone systems are nearing
capacity and will need to be upgraded or replaced in the
near future, but will serve the County at present level
through FY 1990-91.
Following are some additional items that I think you should be
aware of in the FY 1990-91 budget:
1) This will be the first year of operation for the
coordinated human service transportation system, which
for budget purposes is set up as a new department in the
General Fund with expenditures of $246,385 and revenues of
$212,399. There will be positions eliminated in the
County (3) and in other human service agencies because of
the coordinated transportation system. Hopefully, the
County or the private transportation provider will be able
to absorb the affected employees.~
.
2) In addition to the $2,250,000 fund balance appropriated,
approximately $4.7 million of fund balance will be used in
completing the airport terminal building next year. This
is in accordance with the financial plan for the airport
terminal approved by the County Commissioners on November
14, 1988. This totals $7 million, which is approximately
46 percent of the undesignated fund balance. This could
drastically effect the County's interest earnings and
overall investment program and cause a tight strain on the
working capital.
3 )

4) There are no funds recommended for New Hanover County
Child Care Resources and Referral, Inc. Funds can be
appropriated during the year when the funding needs are
determined.
.
5) There are no funds recommended for the possible County
cost related to the Burn Pit, as costs have not been
determined (negotiations are ongoing).
6) Contributions to the three beaches are recommended in the
General Fund at the current year amounts.

7) The cost of the Hazardous Materials Response Contract. with
the City of Wilmington in the amount of $49,040 is
recommended in the Fire Service District Fund, not the
General Fund, as it is a service to the people in the Fire
Service District.
8 )
An amount of $350,000 is recommended

originally approved for fiscal year 1989-90.

9) An amount of $54,557 is recommended in the outside agency
portion of the budget for the County's contract with the
Division of Forest Resources. This was previously
budgeted in the Fire Marshal's budget.
10) There are no funds recommended for the Aquifer Study.

If you have any questions or would like additional information,
please let me know. I look forward to working with you during
the budget process.
