NATIONAL SAFE BOATING WEEK
PROCLAMATION
WHEREAS, for nearly 90 million Americans, boating continues to be a popular recreational
activity. In North Carolina, boating, fishing and sailing are a few of the rnost popular year round
activities; and
WHEREAS, New Hanover County is committed to ensuring the safety and security of all those
living in and visiting our county; and
WHEREAS, on average, 650 people die each year in boating- related accidents in the U.S.;
approximately three - fourths of these fatalities are caused by drowning; and
WHEREAS, the vast majority of these accidents are caused by human error or poor judgement
and not by the boat, equipment, or environmental factors; and
WHEREAS, every boater should wear a U.S. Coast Guard - approved life jacket at all times
while boating. A significant number of boaters who lost their lives by drowning each year would
be alive today had they worn their life jackets. Drowning remains the number one cause of death
for recreational boaters each year, and the majority of drowning victims in recreational boating
accidents are not wearing a life jacket; and
WHEREAS, today's life jackets are more comfortable, more attractive, and more wearable than
styles of years past and deserve a fresh look by today's boating public; and
WHEREAS, the 2017 National Boating Week theme, "Wear It!" effectively serves to remind all
to wear a life jacket and practice safe boating habits.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT PROCLAIMED that the New Hanover County Board of
Commissioners does hereby support the goals of the North American Safe Boating Campaign
and that May 20 -26, 2017 will be recognized as "National Safe Boating Week" in New Hanover
County, and the start of the year -round effort to promote safe boating.

Consideration of a Resolution Acknowledging the Planning and Collaboration by Our Community
with the Wells Fargo Tournament, the UNCW Graduation and the One Tree Hill Convention
BRIEF SUMMARY:
A resolution acknowledging the planning and collaboration our community saw the first week of May with
the tournament, the graduation, and the convention has been prepared for consideration. It's important that
we recognize the unified command approach our team used for the tournament — it works and it was
executed with skill and sophistication. Our community team showed nimbleness in response to parking
pressure, which led to the city, the county, and the community college making assets available downtown at
no cost to ensure everyone that attended the tournament, the reunion, or just visited downtown had a place to
park. The week and the weekend demonstrated our community can handle lots of demand and pressure, and
that we have a team of leaders that make safety, security, and ease for our residents and visitors alike a
hallmark of our little slice of paradise.

Recognizing the Unified Incident Command in support of the Wells Fargo Championship
and other major events the week of May 1 -7
WHEREAS, New Hanover County hosted three major events during the week of May 1 -7: the
Wells Fargo Championship, the University of North Carolina Wilmington Class of 2017
graduation, and the One Tree Hill Convention, bringing tens of thousands of visitors to our
community; and
WHEREAS, New Hanover County employees have been working for more than a year to
provide the necessary support for the Wells Fargo Championship, and established a Unified
Incident Command staffed with experts in their field from the New Hanover County Sheriff's
Office, New Hanover County Fire Rescue, New Hanover County Emergency Management /911,
and New Hanover Regional Medical Center EMS to provide public safety services to the
community; and
WHEREAS, when the Unified Incident Command identified a need to encourage more
tournament attendees to utilize the downtown parking shuttle, New Hanover County, the City of
Wilmington and Cape Fear Community College stepped in to provide additional parking options
free of charge to attendees of the Wells Fargo Championship and the other events being held in
downtown Wilmington; and
WHEREAS, the Unified Incident Command executed its plan successfully, with skill,
professionalism, and sophistication.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the New Hanover County Board of
Commissioners recognizes and thanks the Unified Incident Command and those who supported
the Unified Incident Command for the work that they performed above and beyond their regular
duties to keep our community safe, healthy, and secure throughout the week.

NEW HANOVER COUNTY FINANCIAL SUMMARY
QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2017
INTRODUCTION:
Attached is a brief fiscal summary for select New Hanover County funds for the quarter ended March 31, 2017. Included is a
summary of revenues and expenditures as recorded by the County for the General, Debt Service, Environmental Management, and
Fire Services Funds.
This information is provided to help keep you abreast of the financial status of the County on a regular basis throughout the fiscal
year. Data provided by fund includes:
• Actual revenues and expenditures for the previous fiscal years ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015;
• Budget revenues and expenditures for the current fiscal year ending June 30, 2017;
• Actual revenues and expenditures as of the end of the quarter for select fiscal years;
• Percentage of actual revenues /expenditures received /spent for the same period the previous fiscal years;
• Percentage of budget revenues /expenditures received /spent for the current fiscal year; and
• Graphical comparison of actual amounts as a percent of budget for all fiscal years presented.
GENERAL FUND HIGHLIGHTS:
Through March 31, 2017, general fund revenues collected were $239.3M compared to expenditures of $209.5M.
• Ad valorem taxes collected year to date are approximately 98% of budgeted amounts which is higher than prior year at the
same time at 96.6 %. Increase in collections year to date is approximately $4 million.
• Sales taxes for the first three quarters represent 6 months of collections and reflect 51.6% of budgeted amounts. This is
an increase of 7.3% over the same time last year.
• Operating expenditures through the third quarter are running from 64% to 69% of budget with the exception of
expenditures for Economic & Physical Development, Debt Service and Transfers which are not distributed evenly by
month. Rather, expenditures are paid when due.
DEBT SERVICE FUND HIGHLIGHTS:
Through March 31, 2017, debt service revenues collected were $55AM compared to expenditures of $44.6M.
• Ad valorem taxes collected through the third quarter generated by the 6.9 cent dedicated tax rate was approximately
$20.2M.
• Debt service is paid from this fund when those payments come due and equates to 78% of budgeted debt service
payments for the year.
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT FUND HIGHLIGHTS:
Through March 31, 2017, environmental management revenues collected were $9.5M compared to expenditures of $10.8M.
• Charges for Services are exceeding prior year with almost $9 million collected through the third quarter.
• Intergovernmental Revenue is distributed to the County on a lag consistent with sales tax. It is recorded when received
and consists of State revenues for tire rebate, white goods disposal, and solid waste disposal funds. Through the first half
of the year, the County has received $252k, which is relatively consistent with the same time in the prior year.
• Operating expenditures through the first three quarters represent 50.4% of budgeted amounts. This is due to
administrative reserves that have not been expended.
• Debt service and capital expenses occur when related capital assets are needed and payments are due.
FIRE SERVICES FUND HIGHLIGHTS:
Through March 31, 2017, fire services revenues collected were $9.3M compared to expenditures of $9.4M.
• Ad valorem taxes collected year to date represent 98.4% of budget which is higher than prior year at 96.1 %.
• Sales taxes received through the first three quarters of the year represent six month of collections and are 43.5% of
budgeted amounts. This is slightly lower than what was received at the same time in the prior year.
• Long term debt was budgeted for the capital purchase of a new truck. The purchase will not occur in the current fiscal year
and thus no proceeds will be received from long term debt and the capital expenditure will not be made.
• Debt service and capital expenses occur when related capital assets are needed and payments are due.

REQUEST FOR BOARD ACTION
MEETING DATE: May 15, 2017

CONTACT(S): Lisa Wurtzbacher
SUBJECT:
Consideration of Amendments to Fund Balance Policy
BRIEF SUMMARY:
New Hanover County Board of County Commissioners adopted its current Fund Balance Policy in 2013.
This policy set a required level of fund balance at 21% of general fund expenditures and outflows and also
set a policy to replenish any shortfall within 2 fiscal years. This policy was a key factor in the County
achieving a AAA credit rating from S &P, the firm's highest rating, making the County double triple A rated
with its rating from Moody's also at Aaa.
After discussions with our financial advisors, we are recommending several amendments to the Fund
Balance Policy that allows the County more flexibility in the use of fund balance while maintaining a fiscally
responsible fund balance level. Those recommendations are highlighted in the attached policy and include:
1. Changing the policy level from a required 21% to a corridor of 18% to 21 %. This change allows the
County to drop below the 21% level if needed without being out of compliance with our policy. It is
not the intent of the recommendation that we manage our budget and finances to the 18% level, but
that instead, when needs arise or circumstances warrant, the County is afforded the flexibility of going
below the 21 %.
2. Adding a section to the policy that would allow the Chief Financial Officer to assign funds above the
21% level to future capital and capital project needs. This may be done by either assigning the amount
in the general fund or moving the funds to a designated capital project fund.
All other sections of the policy remain as was adopted in 2013, with the exception of changing the title
Finance Director to Chief Financial Officer.
We believe the recommended changes to the fund balance policy will not jeopardize the County's credit
rating with S &P or Moody's. The fiscal year 2018 recommended budget assumes these changes in the fund
balance policy.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT:
Strong Financial Performance
• Enhance and maintain effective policies
RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS:
Adopt the policy amendments.

FUND BALANCE POLICY
1.0 Purpose
To establish a key element of the financial stability of the County by setting guidelines
for the General Fund balance. Available fund balance is an important measure of
economic stability. It is essential that the County maintain adequate levels of available
fund balance in order to ensure against unanticipated events that would adversely
affect the financial condition of the County and jeopardize the continuation of County
services and /or activities and to provide the capacity to:
a) Provide sufficient cash flow for daily financial needs;
b) Secure and maintain investment grade bond ratings;
c) Offset significant economic downturns or revenue shortfalls;
d) Provide funds for unforeseen expenditures related to emergencies;
e) Adhere to Local Government Commission minimum fund balance
recommendation
f) Provide citizens with a stable property tax rate
This policy will also establish guidelines for the replenishment of the County's fund
balance in the event that the fund balance falls below the required levels set forth
herein.
2.0 Definition
2.1 Fund balance. Fund balance is the difference between assets and liabilities
reported in a governmental fund. An accounting distinction is made between
classifications of fund balance based on restrictions on the use of fund balance.
These classifications as defined by the Government Finance Officers Association
are (1) Non - spendable, (2) Restricted, (3) Committed, (4) Assigned, and (5)
Unassigned.
2.2 Non - spendable fund balance: Non - spendable fund balance are the components
of fund balance that cannot be spent because they are either (a) not in a
spendable form or (b) contractually required to be maintained intact.
2.3 Restricted fund balance: Restricted fund balance are the components of fund
balance that have constraints paced on the use of resources either (a) externally

ITEM: 9 - 1 - 1
FUND BALANCE POLICY
imposed by creditors (such as through debt covenants), grantors, contributors or
laws or regulations of other governments or (b) imposed by law through
constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
2.4 Committed fund balance: Committed fund balance are the components of fund
balance that are used for specific purposes pursuant to constraints imposed by
formal action of the government's highest level of decision - making authority. In
New Hanover County, the highest level of decision - making authority would be
considered the Board of County Commissioners. These self- imposed limitations
must be set in place prior to year -end, but can be calculated after year -end to be
considered committed for that fiscal year end. In addition, to be considered
committed, the limitations that were imposed at the highest level of decision -
making authority must also require the same action to remove or modify the
limitations. Ordinances that lapse at year -end do not meet the committed test.
2.5 Assigned fund balance: Assigned fund balance are the components of fund
balance that are constrained by the government's intent to be used for specific
purposes, but are neither restricted nor committed. These assignments can
occur any time before the issuance of financial statements to be considered
assigned for that fiscal year end. Further, this assignment ability can be
delegated by the Board of County Commissioners to an appropriate person (i.e.
County Manager, Finance Officer or Budget Officer).
2.6 Unassigned fund balance: Unassigned fund balance is the remainder of fund
balance that has not been reported in another classification and represents
assets that are available to appropriate for future purposes.
2.7 Available fund balance: Available fund balance is the total fund balance less the
total of non - spendable fund balance and fund balance restricted for stabilization
by state statute.
3.0 Policy
3.1 The New Hanover County Board of Commissioners formally establishes the goal
of maintaining unassigned fund balance in the General Fund in an amount
between eighteen (18) percent (approximately two and two - tenths of a month)
and twenty -one (21) percent (approximately two and a half months) of the
New Hanover County Fund Balance Policy
Page 12
Board of Commissioners - May 15, 2017
ITEM: 9 - 1 - 2
FUND BALANCE POLICY
General Fund expenditures and outflows at the end of each fiscal year. It is the
duty of the Chief Financial Officer to ensure the Board of County Commissioners
is informed on the annual unassigned fund balance level. If the level is near the
bottom of the allowed range, the Chief Financial Officer will make
recommendations on where that level should be within the range. If any
significant event or change occurs during a fiscal year which the Chief Financial
Officer believes will lead to the County being below the bottom of the allowed
range, the Chief Financial Officer will notify the Board of County Commissioners.
3.2 If the unassigned fund balance level exceeds the twenty -one (21) percent ceiling
in a given year, the Board of County Commissioners delegates authority to assign
the funds for the purpose of paying for future capital and capital project needs
to the Chief Financial Officer. Alternatively, Chief Financial Officer may
recommend to the Board of County Commissioners that a budget amendment
be adopted to move the amount above the ceiling to a capital project fund.
3.3 The Chief Financial Officer is charged to maintain available fund balance in the
General Fund in an amount no less than eight (8) percent (or approximately one
month) of the General Fund expenditures and outflows at the end of each fiscal
year, as recommended by the North Carolina Local Government Commission. In
the event of an emergency, a supermajority vote (four of five member's
affirmative vote) of the Board is required to approve the use of the fund balance
such that it falls below the eight (8) percent target.
3.4 The County's budget and revenue spending policy provides for programs with
multiple revenue sources. The Chief Financial Officer will use resources in the
following hierarchy: bond proceeds, federal funds, state funds, local funds and
county funds. For purposes of fund balance classification, expenditures are to be
spent from restricted fund balance first, followed in order by committed fund
balance, assigned fund balance and lastly unassigned fund balance. The Chief
Financial Officer has the authority to deviate from this practice if it is in the best
interest of the County.
3.5 The independent auditor of the County shall monitor the County's compliance
with this established Fund Balance Policy. The auditor shall report related
findings and recommendations annually as part of the County audit.

FUND BALANCE POLICY
4.0 Replenishment of Fund Balance
4.1 If it is anticipated at the completion of any fiscal year that the projected or
estimated amount of fund balance falls below the required levels set forth in
section 3.1, the County Manager shall prepare and submit in conjunction with
the proposed budget a plan for the expenditure reductions and /or revenue
increases necessary to restore the amount of fund balance to the minimum
requirements within two (2) fiscal years.
5.0 Maintenance of Fund Balance for Enterprise Funds and Special Fire District
5.1 The County will strive to maintain an adequate level of fund balance for its
Enterprise Funds and Special Fire District Fund for future capital expenditure
needs and for unforeseen circumstances and emergencies.

Why do you wish to serve on this committee?
Since the 2001 move of my parents to a Senior living residence and up to the recent death of
my mother in a nursing home, I have supported my parents and parents -in -law in their journeys
through all levels of elder care residency. While their generally positive experiences through
independent living, assisted living, dementia care, and nursing homes were surely predicated on
the vigilant attention of myself and my local family, I came to admire the good work done by
eldercare staff and administration. I would like to be part of an effort to maintain the same high
standard of eldercare for all facilities in New Hanover county.
What areas of concern would you like to see addressed by this committee?
I would like to see an improvement in communication with family members of elder care
residents.
Qualifications for serving:
I am passionate about elder care. I believe in maintaining human dignity and continuing to
celebrate the `bore" of an elderly person until their last breath. I believe in the therapeutic
benefit of a single compassionate caregiver and a supportive staff and administration. I am
adept at visualizing a "big picture" and formulating a strategy of "small steps" to affect big
change!
