Attendance:
Council
Member-elect Rom Salem
Council Auditor Kyle Billy to discuss:
Report #824 – Capital Assets Audit
Mr. Billy defined
“capital asset” and reviewed the findings of the report which included: some users
of the capital asset tracking system have inappropriate or unnecessary access;
asset transactions (changes in the system) were performed without proper review
due to the fact that they were performed by the reviewer/manager; the annual
inventory form does not facilitate compliance with Florida Administrative Code
requirements; some City assets were not able to be located; incomplete and
inappropriately authorized supporting documentation; untimely and erroneous
entries in the system; incomplete and out-of-date policies and procedures;
various limitations and possible Florida Administrative Code compliance issues with
the current system being used; discrepancies between the capital assets system
and Note 6 on Capital Asset Activity in the City’s Comprehensive Annual
Financial Report (CAFR). The Accounting Division agreed with all findings and
said that the new ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system should rectify most
of these shortcomings. Council Member Gulliford questioned whether $1,000 is still
a proper threshold for defining a capital asset and suggested looking at an
increase to account for inflation over time.
Report #825 – Quarterly Summary for the
Six Months Ended March 31, 2019
Mr. Billy reported
that the budget projects to a favorable variance of $12.3 million (1% of the
General Fund budget), comprised of a favorable revenue variance of $5.9 million
and a favorable expenditure variance of $6.4 million. He noted the revenues and
expenditures being incurred by the Sheriff’s Office providing officers on
overtime to act as school guardians (as required by a new state law) in
elementary schools. In response to a question from Council Member Boyer, Mr.
Billy reported 206 vacancies in the JSO budget and explained that the
department is being reimbursed $2.2 million from the School Board on its
expenditure of approximately $7 million for school guardians. CFO Joey Greive
explained that discussions are being held between the administration and the
School Board about the future funding for the school guardian program which
will be reflected in the FY19-20 budget.
Mr. Billy reviewed
the expenses and expected reimbursements to the City from Hurricanes Matthew
and Irma. The City has estimated total damages resulting from the two
hurricanes of $128.5 million, of which $112 million has been submitted to FEMA
for consideration for reimbursement and $38.75 million has been certified. He
explained the importance of sufficient reserve funds to handle expenses such as
these that may be incurred years before reimbursement can be received. Council
Member Boyer noted that FEMA reimbursement commitments are not based on fully
appropriated funds, so may not be entirely dependable
regarding future payments. In response to a question from Council Member Love,
Mr. Greive said that the administration is in constant contact with FEMA to
justify the submissions for reimbursement and answer any questions that may be
raised.
With regard to
Hurricane Matthew, the City has recovered everything that has been spent and is
recoverable. With regard to Hurricane Irma, response to the reimbursement
requests has been delayed in part due to personnel turnover at the state level,
but these transactions typically take a long time. A small reimbursement has
been received and the rest is expected over time. Mr. Greive noted that the City has several
different types of reserves totaling about $250 million to handle situations
like this. Emergency Preparedness Director Steve Woodard said that talks are
underway at the federal level to potentially change the cost share for natural
disasters to a 90% federal, 5% state and 5% local ratio, from the current 75%
federal, 12.5% state and 12.5% local.

The next regular meeting will be held Tuesday, June 4th, 2019

The
City has a license agreement with Lutheran Services Florida, Inc. for
operating Head Start at 1314 Union Street W (one of the parcels being
sold). The license agreement expires
July 15, 2022 and is for $1 per year. The City is permitted to terminate its
license agreement with Head Start by providing 30 days’ written notice. ·

Start to the Florida C. Dwight Park or another mutually agreeable
location. ·
The
cost to relocate and renovate an existing structure or possibly construct a
new facility is unknown at this time until a location is selected. Per the
Agreement, the buyer will contribute $70,000 towards these costs. ·
If
the parties are unable to come to an agreement on Head Start’s new location,
either party can terminate the Agreement and the buyer will be refunded its
deposit. |

Bill Summary See attached FY 19-20 Property Appraiser Budget on pages
13-15 Assistant Council Auditor Kim
Taylor reviewed the Property Appraiser’s budget. Major changes include the
elimination of one position (function covered by the use of new software
capability in the land records area), the 4.5% salary increases resulting
from the pension reform plan, an increase in the cost of aerial surveys, and
a new auto allowance for the Property Appraiser. In response to a question
from Council Member Boyer, Mr. Holland said that the Sheriff’s Office, Public
Works Department and other city agencies use the Property Appraiser’s aerial
photography. Council Member Boyer asked if the Property Appraiser’s records
could somehow reference the zoning or potential use of a property since some
users use the system for that purpose, for which it was not designed, which
may cause confusion. She also saw a need to at least footnote the appraisal
values of public properties to inform users that they’re not necessarily
up-to-date or accurate since non-taxable properties are not given the same
level of attention in updates. Mr. Holland described the new
software that will automatically read and transfer information from the Clerk
of the Courts’ property transfer records into the Appraiser’s database
instead of it being re-entered by hand. APPROVE 7-0 |

Summary Fact
Sheet NCSPHS: Amend/App In
response to a question from Council Member Newby, Mary Tobin described the
prioritization of the use of the funds by program and by providers. Mr. Newby
asked the KHA to explore ways for children to receive the services they need
in areas that don’t have a pre-existing program provider. Ms. Tobin said that
KHA has limited funding and can’t afford to have programs in every eligible
school, particularly if there is a funded program in a nearby facility. She
noted that several schools are currently served by the 21st
Century Schools/ YMCA program that will be ending this summer and that there
was no succession plan for programs at those schools. They will be entered
into the funding prioritization process in future years. Ms. Tobin said that
unused funds at the end of a school year can be re-prioritized for use in
other eligible programs and areas. AMEND/APPROVE

Summary Fact
Sheet NCSPHS: App In
response to a question from Council Member Love, Ms. Stagner
said that this bill authorizes the application for a bond allocation; there
are no projects currently under consideration. Single family bonds are not
warranted under the current mortgage interest rate scenario, so these funds
will likely be converted to mortgage-backed securities to assist single
family housing in another way. Council Member Gulliford described a
Cleveland, Ohio lease/purchase program that assists in the provision of
workforce housing. APPROVE

Council Member Gulliford reported that
cases of endocarditis have dropped precipitously at St. Vincent’s Hospital –
Riverside along with the substantial decrease in opioid overdose recidivism at
that hospital and noted that this represents a huge cost savings that can be
attributed to the City’s opioid pilot program. He has spoken with the CEO of
Florida Blue about convening a meeting of the CEOs of the local hospitals to
discuss these savings and to explore the possibility of generating private
contributions for the program.
