to talk millage tonight. So I thank you for putting me at the top of the agenda. ‸ I can be on my way. But you know, I just wanted more ‸ than anything for you all to know that I'm here to help and I'm eager to help with the city's priorities. The past legislative session that we had,

going to throttle back a little bit in terms of our tax of taxpayer money given the state's financial situation. But now that we find ourselves in a place where the state's projections and revenues coming in actually exceed all of our all of our expectations, you know, I'm eager to to start moving forward with appropriations projects and appropriations requests. And specifically, you know, I want to I want to talk about water projects because I think those are the areas where we get the most bang for our buck. Water projects serve the long term needs of our community and ultimately serve the

Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:03:11–00:03:15 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
all looking after. So to provide some some context on that, what exactly do I mean by water project? We have done everything from muck
dredging
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 00:03:23–00:03:24 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
to septic to sewer conversions to stormwater projects and and the way that it works in the House of Representatives is we look for a city to bring forward a match for their ask of of the legislature. So we have had, you know, success in the past asking for a variety of dollars for for a number of different projects. And, you know, I want you to know that we're beginning that process now, and I think it's timely as you all begin your your budget deliberations and continue through that process. If there are specific projects that you have related to water quality, the environment, preservation, restoration, those are things that that we have the budget for those are projects that I'm eager to work on because they do they do have a legacy impact for our community. So I'm open to that discussion. I think you all have met Angelique in my office. She's the guru when it comes to getting those appropriation requests submitted once we get all the paperwork done. And it's it's not a lot of paperwork, but, you know, we want to make sure that the eyes are dotted and the teaser crossed. We want to have a good understanding of what the project is, what phase it's in. Is it ready for construction?

table to meet the legislature in getting the appropriation done? So I look forward to that. I'm eager to have that discussion with you all. And you can let me know what your your one or two priorities are that you'd like to see funded next fiscal year. And I will be happy to take those up to Tallahassee and make them a priority. The other thing that I want to mention briefly that we've had an opportunity to work on past year, we had great success with with derelict boats in our in our waterways, you know, and I driving over, you know, the meeting tonight passing over the causeway.

We have a real real problem with derelict vessels in Brevard County in particular. And what troubled me was to see the investments that your city council is making in the environment that the taxpayers of our county are making in lagoon restoration.
[unclear audio — 0:04 ▶]
Flag: a language review questioned the wording · 00:05:31–00:05:35 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
with with little to no responsibility for what happens next, I found troubling. So we passed Senate Bill 1086 this past legislative session, which creates a 21 day administrative hearing process and also gives law enforcement the authority in our state to move a vessel that is at risk of becoming derelict when it has the potential to do damage to
seawalls,
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 00:05:59–00:06:00 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
docks, stormwater infrastructure or important environmental habitat. So we now have means in our law to be able to address these issues before ‸ vessel actually sinks, because once it sinks, the cost to us, the taxpayers goes up tremendously. So that is a proactive piece of legislation that I'm very proud of that I think you're going to see benefits from right out here off of the beautiful Riverfront Park.

And that's a free conference, and it's for the chapters 175, which is for the fire pension, and chapter 185, which is for the police pension. Okay.

the city who would be interested in possibly filling a position on a pension board. So I explained to this person, this conference is free. Go to it. First day is for basic learning. And this person sounded interested. ‸ And where I'm going with this is we're here today and maybe gone tomorrow. And it's not fair for that person coming on a board, not knowing anything and expected to fill a position and to make decisions, and they don't have any information to work with any education.

And if you can and don't mind, share it with everybody, you know, you know, cause just to let you, ‸ I've never written to the president of the United States and to get a letter back means a lot. So maybe let folks know, Hey, take a chance. If you want to write a letter, you might get a response back. So that's all I have. And, uh, as always, God bless and thank you for your service.

But, not only that, but ‸ just to get on a little bit more serious note, one of your students, Logan, gave you this idea a while ago for three years. He tried to give you this idea.

We had the workshop July the 8th 2021 and also August the 10th 2021 and yes we will open this to the public but I would like to hear from Mrs. Bowman please.
Yes Mr. Mayor this is the stormwater rate study that's the annual rate study performed by Stantec to ensure that the rates are set in accordance with the needs for the stormwater fund operational and capital needs. It does include a four and a half percent increase. The consultants previously presented their their results at the other meetings that you have mentioned, so this is just acceptance of their final report.
Okay ‸ any questions for Mrs. Bowman?

a question in regard to when we set up the stormwater management plan there is supposed to be a a way to get exemptions or to get you know the credits that's right the credit plan. What is the status of that? Where does that stand?
We have a policy in place
‸ and
it's been approved by the city manager and it's I believe it's available on the stormwater assessment site.
And so it was updated from the original one because we decided to send that back I thought that was because it it didn't prove it it didn't give residents any ability

in March, actually, um, where we had a kickoff meeting with staff. And at that time, um, the city manager provided direction on budget development and, um, provided the, uh, previous year's budgets to the department so they could begin working on their expenditure side. And then at that time, the finance department also started to take a look at the revenue side in reviewing the revenue to develop the revenue budget. And in doing that, we look at trend data and then we also look at different assumptions and estimates from places and other organizations such as the property appraiser and the state of Florida with any type of shared revenues. ‸ So we get the estimated avalorum revenue and start working on development of the revenue and start working with the consultant on the fire and stormwater assessments, um, that you just approved.

And we got direction on the fire and stormwater and actually utility assessments. And then August 10th, we had the first reading of fire and stormwater. And now we're here, um, as I said previously, where you, uh, just adopted the final fire and stormwater assessments. And then we have, we will actually have one more meeting, um, at the next council meeting to adopt the final budget. So, as I said, at this meeting, we're here to adopt the tentative millage rate. That's going to be the first step. And then the second step is going to be to adopt the tentative budget for the next fiscal year. You will also be requested to set a second public hearing, which would be at the next council meeting on September 28th.

Um, just to give you a little bit of context, this was a slide that was used in a previous presentation. So it is preliminary estimates. And if you will note the city of Coco had the lowest, uh,

with the other cities. Um, so what we do when we develop the budget and we start discussing millage rates is we see what other cities are doing. And this slide shows you, um, the comparison of the city of Coco compared to the other cities in Brevard County. And we're kind of in the middle at 6.4532 mills that is ranked based on the proposed millage rates. Um, of no Titusville. Is increasing their property tax rate. Um, Coco beach. And Melbourne are both increasing their property tax rate above what they had the previous year. Um, Cape Canaveral, um, is actually going with a rollback rate. Uh, which is kind of a surprise and Rockledge is going down. Um, so what this slide demonstrates to you is that each city is unique with their challenges that they have with where they want to go. You see Titusville is increasing their millage rate to 8.2. Uh, so that's a healthy increase above what it was last year. They're going up a full millage rate.

is what does this any change in the millage rate mean to the average citizen? So if you had kept your millage rate the same, you still would have been advertising a tax increase because it was above the rollback rate. So we kind of take a look at the different values of homes, just, uh, kind of trying to get a picture of it and assume that there's a $50,000 homestead exact exemption.

In fact, I supported, I advocated for and championed to some degree the stormwater master plan because I knew that we needed to be more storm prepared. ‸ So I have no principles against taxes.

And so I appreciate all the work you're doing for us. But I do have to speak for mine. And sometimes when you're wrestling with a tough problem, one of the best things that you can do is change your perspective on that problem a little bit. So bear with me on this. If a person has a savings account and they realize they couldn't make rent or a car payment, would they spend their savings account on projects?
No.

Well, it's not a good idea to spend your savings account on your rent. You wouldn't ask your neighbor to cover your rent so that you could buy your projects. It's just, it's not being able to
do.

I'd just like to include the point. The reason why they spent money onto Provost Park is because of all the drug dealers down there and stuff like that. But outside of that point, I see this as, yes, it's partially a good idea. But also partially not because you guys would be continuing to raise it. Not just one year,
one
off. But continually raising it over the years. And eventually it gets too high to a point where it's unsustainable for people. So that's just all I think about. ‸ Thank you.

Thank you, Mayor. So, this brings us to the second portion of the presentation tonight, which is the ‸ adoption of the tentative budget and the capital improvement. So, as I said, we started back in March with our budget development for fiscal year 2022. And with that budget development, we take a look at the fund balance policy to see what we can fund with fund balance and what that policy says. And so, the policy says that we can't use any of those reserves for something that's going to occur every year or incur ongoing operational expenses.
[unclear audio — 0:06 ▶]

needs, meet the operating needs. And then also, the issue with the wages for the employees came to light.
[unclear audio — 0:05 ▶]
Flag: a language review questioned the wording · 01:04:04–01:04:08 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
study. And unfortunately, at that time, the city was not able to adopt that. So, the wages have stayed kind of static since 2016. And it was needed to increase those wages. So, we have to take a look at what the departments are asking for as we're developing the budget to see if we can use some of those reserves or savings to complete the budget.
[unclear audio — 0:06 ▶]

projections and work with the budget quite a bit as we get new information.

a total of $145,575,600. That's actually a $9.7 million decrease in the budget from the prior year. If you will note, there's a big decrease in this fund right here that's called the Health Insurance Fund. That's because we were self-insured. And so, we had to have a fund to separately track the costs and the revenue in that fund. And because we're going fully insured, which means that the insurance carrier is bearing the risk of the claims, we do not need that fund any longer. And therefore, we don't need revenue going into that fund. Also, of note, in the water and sewer fund, there was a decrease of overall of about $1.8 million.
[unclear audio — 0:04 ▶]

but they had other reductions in their transfers. Also in the water and sewer renewal and replacement fund, there was a $5.7 million decrease. That's a fund that was set up a year ago, I think in fiscal year 21, to separately track the large capital needs of the utility funds so that the operational fund doesn't see huge fluctuations because their capital projects tend to be quite large.

these special revenue funds, which includes pretty much everything but general fund ‸ and some of these other funds up here, is primarily CRAs. And the COCO CRA has been budgeted to pay off the debt that it owes the general fund.

funding source. So we break out our revenue into different categories that pertains to our financial statement reporting and how we do that. There is an increase in taxes, which is not just Avalorum taxes, but other taxes as well, of about $1.1 million.

It
increases the transfer into general fund from the utility fund in addition to the increases in the solid waste that was built in, about $1.2 million.

utility fund. There's several transfers from the utility fund. They all have different calculations. And ‸ so some go up and some go down. Overall, general fund budget increased about $1.8 million. In the water and sewer fund, not only do we have the renewal and replacement fund, but we also have an impact fee fund. So it makes it easier to account for the different things that we need to spend money on and then that we need to report on to the state. So we have a separate impact fee fund and we use all the impact fees that we collect, which is only estimated about $2.2 million for the utility fund.

utility fund itself is about $2.5 million. Again, you'll see the reduction here in the non-revenue, which is contributions and any kind of bond proceeds, contributions being transfers into other funds. Reduction of about $4.5 million.

Then we take a look at the capital budget to show you what it is that we're spending and how much we're spending on capital. I will tell you that most of this capital was funded out of fund balance this year. You would normally see a large swing or larger amount of money coming out of our savings. But with the transfer in from the CRAs, the swing isn't that much. So
[unclear audio — 0:03 ▶]
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 01:10:52–01:10:55 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
You saw about $160,000. You can see there's several projects, police department, primarily police vehicles. And then in public works, they have several projects. So this slide shows you what it is we're funding, what we're buying. Abby gets to get a new vehicle next year. We have some radio replacements for police and fire that were necessary. Traffic response trailer for the police department. Different vehicles, some cranes and some heavy equipment is being funded with that. We did have a few things that we could not fund, one of which was the pumper truck for the fire department. We're working on that. We're waiting on hearing if we get some grant revenue and then we have a contingency plan if we do not get that. And then there's a fleet software upgrade. And police department actually requested 14 vehicles and we ‸ deferred six of them for vehicle replacements. So the tentative ‸ adopted budget for the water and sewer fund, this is showing it by division. Again, the budget is $73,308,513, which actually is a reduction of about $1.9 million or 2.5% in the utility fund budget. And also we break it out, you know, where do we see this increase? And you see this large increase here, which is personal services and then a reduction in operating expenses. So again, overall about a 2.5% decrease in the $73 million utility fund budget. Again, they also have capital needs. And as I mentioned before, there was a reduction in some of them. But they do have about $1.6 million budget in engineering and then other small projects for a total of $3,899,296 in their capital projects for the next fiscal year. Then in the renewal and replacement fund, as you can see, their capital budget is $5.4 million for this year. And this is the reason why I just mentioned that we segregate these big projects, because last year ‸ was $9 million. This year is $5 million. So it can have large swings there. The seller's plant is scheduled for some upgrades in its infrastructure and hardware, about $1.3 million.

So, please don't let that be a fault that we're on the downside of this, that it's going away. We're still very high, but we're not as high as we were um this time last month.

There's plenty of information out there to help you be educated and make an informed decision on whether or not to be vaccinated. And
