Council Auditor Kyle Billy to discuss Report:

#821 – Quarterly Report for the Twelve Months Ended September 30, 2018

Mr. Billy presented highlights from the year-end quarterly budget report on the General Fund. The year ended with a favorable revenue variance of $2.71 million, largely driven by a favorable variance of $7.99 million in ad valorem taxes and negative variances in State Shared Revenues of $5.4 million and $1.6 million in debt proceeds (debt not issued until needed – there is an offsetting variance in the expenditure report). The year ended with a favorable expenditure variance of $15.5 million, primarily due to a positive variance of $2.9 million in the Fire and Rescue Department, $4 million in the Sheriff’s Office and $2.2 million in the Office of General Counsel (representing a legal settlement not yet paid out). The favorable variance is 1.1% of the total General Fund budget. $10.8 million of the net favorable balance is allocated to the FY18-19 budget as a revenue source. Council Member Gulliford asked for additional information on the details of the $5.4 million shortfall in state shared revenues and whether that may represent the beginning of a trend.

Presentation:

Council Member Boyer on McCoy’s Creek

Council Member Boyer gave the committee an overview of the scope of the McCoy’s Creek revitalization project, which is a 2-phase project to provide an urban greenway and elevate flooded roadways (Phase 1) and to modify the creek outfall for flood protection and commercial development, all to be done in conjunction with the City’s ash remediation project already underway in the area. It will also link to the long-planned Emerald Necklace project. Funds have been appropriated in the current year and will be appropriated over the next several years. An RFP for Phase 1 is on the street, separate from contracts for the demolition of two bridges over the creek already being bid. Application has been made for St. Johns River Water Management District funding for this project as a potential model for other cities to follow. Ms. Boyer commented on the City of Atlanta’s Beltline project that has produced a remarkable revitalization in similar types of neighborhoods there. Council Member Gaffney asked Public Works Director John Pappas for a timeline of the project’s planning and construction. Mr. Pappas said that initial work will begin within the next year to year-and-a-half. Several committee members thanked Ms. Boyer and the administration for their efforts to move this project forward.

NOTE: The next regular meeting will be held Tuesday, January 15, 2019.

1. 12/11/2018 CO Introduced: F Kirk Wendland/Ed Randolph

Bill Summary Fact Sheet

In response to a question from Council Member Gulliford, Kirk Wendland said that this type of loan has somewhat less security than the usual Office of Economic Development loan because of the unique nature of the projects being incentivized. He is open to including a personal guarantee of the loan recipient in the agreement. Mr. Gulliford suggested that the OED find a commercial bank that would make these loans with the City as a loan guarantor rather than the City making the loans directly. Mr. Wendland questioned whether the low volume of funds available would be sufficient to attract the interest of a commercial bank. He said that the City would need to make a conscious policy decision about how much risk it’s willing to take to incentivize small projects that need up-front capital to make a project work. The current program limits City involvement to 20% of the overall project cost. Council Member Boyer reported that the CIP Committee on which she participated several years ago had heard that a large percentage of the City’s economic development loans are paid on time and the projects are successful.
