New Hanover County Commissioners
320 Chestnut street
Wilmington, North Carolina 28401
Dear Co~missioners:
I am enclosing for your information and action the staff's recom~mendation
for anticipated revenues and proposed expenditures for the 1985/86 Fiscal
Year. The budget, as prepared, contains the total county appropriations
within the anticipated revenues with no increase in the .68 per SlOO rate
now in effect. Current property taxes are estimated -co be $26,158,322
based on tax listings of $3,965,785,627. At a 97% collection rate, one
cent on the tax rate will generate $384,681 in revenue.
Two significant factors must be considered when examining this budget:
'The General Assembly has no'c ac'ced on any budget legisla'cion a'c this
time; and at the time of discussing the budget process wi,th you on
May 6, we had not received any budget documentation ror the Schools.
Since that time, we have received the approved budget.
SCHOOLS
The staff and I anticipated and still reconm1end an increase of $1,025,875 in
local current expense funds. We reco*nend $900,000 in Capital Outlay funds,
which is $66,514 less than the amount approved by the Commissioners for the
Fiscal Year 84/85. Of the Capital Outlay funds recourrnended, the $900,000
recommendation is to continue the $4,500, COO corrm1itment by the County Commis-
sioners for renovation and other non-bond fund projects.
The Schools' request amounts to, a 20% increase in county funds compared to
an overall effective increase of $918,446 or 2.9% in all other county agencies
and departments.
Seven new staff positions and 15 teaching positions have been included in the
Schools I request. If approved, this "Jould bring t,o 413 the total nmnber of
locally funded equivalent positions in the school system.
"
New Hanover County Commissioners

April 14, 1985
COUNTY PERSONNEL
A total of 12 new positions have been recoi1\ll'lendedand 10 positions that
were in the 84/85 Budget have been abolished, resulting in a net increase
of 2 positions.
The new positions are:
Health Department
1 PH Nurse I
1 Animal Control Officer (50%)
1 Clerk Typist III (50%)
Property Management
2 Housekeeping Asst. II
Personnel
1 Personnel Technician
Inspec,tions
1 Permit Clerk

1 rrax Clerk IV

A substantial reduction in the cost of Hospitalization has been passed on
to 'the employees. The major chanr]es are the l-eduction' from $300 to $100
of the deductible and the individuals monthly cost reduced to $6.00 from
$13.21 and the family plan to $29.00 from $58.63.
Funds to implement the merit pay plan are inclt.:cded in the budget.
FIP~/RESCUE SERVICES
Funds to centralize the rescue services in the county are budgeted in a
lump SU11\ in the Contingencies accoun-t. Since final recommendations have
not been submitted to the Commissioners, no specific line items are recomrnend-
ed at this time.
The City's annexation of county fire service covered areas \-Jould appear to
cause a reduction in the cost of .these services. For this reason and the
lack of definitive justification, I have reduced the amount recommended
frorn $271,280 in the 84/85 Budget to $175,000 in the FY 85/86 Budget. The
City's annexation of these areas cause a reduction in sales tax revenues

April 14, 1985
AIRPORT
Probably the most significant impac't of the county's budget for the nex.t
-three years will be funds for the new terminal project. Of the .total
local share of 3.7 million, $1,244,536 has been included in this budget.
LIBRARY
Funds in the amount of $171,592 are included to automate the circulation
and inventory of books. State funds in the amount of $56,000 will partially
offset this expenditure.
SOLID WASTE
The county's contribution to the Solid Waste fund continues to decline.
A reduction of $883,565 from FY 84/85 is reflected in.this budget.
CONSOLIDATED PURCHASING
An amount of $35,000 is included in the Finance Department budget to reimburse
the City for operating a consolidated pruchasing system for the county. The
consolidation of purchasing will lead to more efficient use of county s'taff,
an expanded purchasing base for both governments, professional purchasing
and increased fiscal cont1."ol which will ultimatelJl reduce ,the cost of. services_
PUBLIC SAFETY OVERTIME
In Garcia v San Antonio Metropolitan Transit Authority, the U. S. Supreme
Court reversed an earlier decision and held that .the Fair Labor Standards
Act applies to employees of local governments. The regulations ,that apply
to Public Safety Employees have not been finalized and may impact overtime
cost in public safety departmen'ts.
REVENUES AND FUND BALANCE
Revenues have been es.timated very realistically. No overages are, anticipated.
Therefore, it is not recormnended that Fund Balance be appropriated_
Conclusion:
Unless the General Assembly provlces some relief for the large increases in
the School Budget, and should t.he County Conunissioners decide to fund their
total requests, other programs and services must be reduced if no tax increase
is desired.
The staff and I look forward to working with the County Con~issioners on this
year's budget.
