Auditor Kyle Billy to discuss Report:
#798:
JTA Paratransit Audit
NOTE: The next regular meeting will be held August 1, 2017.
Council President Brosche welcomed the
committee and thanked them in advance for the work they will perform in the
coming year.
Council Auditor Kyle Billy gave an
overview of Auditor’s Office Audit #798 (JTA Paratransit Audit). He explained how
the paratransit system works operates through a combination of functions by the
JTA and a third party contractor. The audit’s findings include: improper levels
of computer access rights; improper segregation of duties; improper delegation
of approval authority for contract changes. The audit identified numerous
instances of the contract service provider altering client pick-up times in the
computer to show pick-ups being made on time (within 15 minutes of the appointment
time) when those pick-ups were actually made more than 15 minutes late. The
audit also identified instances of both overpaid and underpaid invoices that
largely balanced out. Of the 4,489 trips that were provided for free, 897 of
those rides did not have proper supporting documentation validating the reason
for the free transport. The audit found that the contractor has never met the
contractual goal of 1.9 trips provided per hour; the Auditor’s Office
recommended that the JTA review that contractual goal and potentially make a
change if it is determined to be an unreachable goal. Council Member
Schellenberg suggested that the JTA consider the use of taxis, Uber, and other
transportation options to provide this service which is mandated by the federal
government. New technology should be explored that might replace the
traditional bus transport model. Council Member Gulliford, who was the
Council’s liaison to the JTA last year, described the difficulties faced by the
paratransit system in providing on-time service.
Mr. Billy informed the committee that
an ordinance (2017-500) will be introduced at the Council meeting next week for
action as a first reading emergency to adopt the state-mandated “rolled back”
millage rate and a tentative millage levy rate for reporting to the state in
early August. The Mayor’s budget proposes to levy the same millage rate as in
the current fiscal year. The Auditor’s Office traditionally suggests that the
Council tentatively approve a millage levy of 0.25 mills higher than the
mayor’s proposal at the start of the budget process so that there is capacity
to levy the rate needed to fund the ultimate budget without having to
re-advertise a higher millage rate later in the process at considerable expense
(for second mailings to each property owner). In response to a question from
Council Member Becton, Mr. Billy reported that the current year’s millage rate
is projected to produce $35 million in additional revenue ($595 million versus
$560 million) if applied to next year’s assessment.

Summary In response to a question from Council Member Boyer about
whether the extension to 3-term limits would apply to current sitting council
members, Mr. Schellenberg indicated that it would. Ms. Boyer felt that might
work against the chances of the proposal succeeding at referendum. In
response to a question from Council Member Reggie Brown about whether the
referendum could be worded to give voters the option of approving 3-term
limits either for currently sitting members or only for members elected in
the future, Ms. Sidman said that Charter amendment referendum questions must
be posed in a yes or no fashion. She suggested the possibility of holding a
straw ballot to solicit the voters’ opinion on one of the options, then
holding a second binding referendum on a specific proposal. The committee
discussed what options would make elections more competitive and expressed
differing opinions on whether or not the possibility of third terms should
apply to currently sitting members or not. Approve 5-2 (Becton
and Gaffney opposed) |

Summary NCSPHS: Betty Burney, President of the I’m A Star Foundation,
described the services provided by the program and the two proposed locations
at the Beaches and on the Westside. She answered questions from the committee
members about the services provided and the rationale for choosing the two
proposed locations. Council Member Schellenberg proposed an amendment to
appropriate $30,000; the motion failed 1-6.
In response to a question from Council Member Boyer about the possibility
of making an appropriation of $30,000 now and then an additional allocation
at the end of the fiscal year of the remainder of the Special Council
Contingency fund, Deputy General Counsel Peggy Sidman and Assistant Council
Auditor Kim Taylor opined that a contingent appropriation of a non-specific
amount would be very problematic. Amend/Approve

Summary Fact Sheet NCSPHS: Council Member Boyer proposed an amendment to add language
stating that the Council retains the authority to appropriate funds from the
Tree Protection Trust Fund without needing prior approval from the newly
created Tree Commission – the amendment was approved 7-0. Attorney Jason Teal of the General Counsel’s Office
answered questions about the number of positions the City intends to hire and
how the positions will be funded (the City Arborist position can be funded
with the proceeds of the Tree Protection Trust Fund). The settlement
agreement does not require that the City retain the three positions in
perpetuity. Amend/approve

Summary TEU: Assistant General Counsel Susan Grandin explained the
history of the intersection improvement project and the developer’s letter of
credit posted to ensure project completion. The City assisted the developer
in getting the owners of an adjacent apartment complex to grant the easements
needed to locate the mast arms for the traffic signal improvement. The
agreement provides for cost sharing between REDUS and the City on any cost
overruns exceeding the $525,000 original project budget. Ms. Grandin

Summary Fact Sheet NCSPHS: Stephanie Burch, Director of the Neighborhoods Department,
explained the application and scoring process for these funds and explained
that the bill had been deferred in the NCSPHS Committee the previous day with
a request for her office to provide some historical background on the Grace
and Truth Community Development Corporation. Council Member Gaffney
recommended that if the department is going to investigate the background of
Grace and Truth CDC, it should investigate the other applicant CDCs on the
same basis. Council Member Newby, Chair of the NCSPHS Committee, joined the meeting
and said that his committee had deferred the bill at the request of Council
Member Dennis, who had concerns about Grace and Truth CDC’s past history with
City funding. Ms. Burch said that her department would review the history of
all of the applicant CDCs back to the time of their certification by the
City. DEFER |

Summary Fact Sheet NCSPHS: Diana Seydlorsky, Chief of the Housing and Community
Development Division, explained that US HUD rules allow the use of CDBG funds
to purchase a replacement fire truck for use in a low/ moderate income
eligible neighborhood, but prohibit use of those funds for purchase of other
types of vehicles or equipment. Council Member Katrina Brown felt that the
City should not compete as an applicant for CDBG funding for community
services with non-profit organizations. Council Member Boyer recommended
splitting the CDBG allocation into two pots – one for public infrastructure
for the City’s use and the other for service provision for not-for-profit
applicants and asked if the City’s CDBG Consolidated Plan would need to be amended
to provide for such a split. Ms. Seydlorsky said that the local allocation of
CDBG funds must be driven by the preferences expressed by the CDBG Advisory
Committee. The department is in the process of developing an RFP for a
consultant to guide a process to revise the Consolidated Plan. AMEND/APPROVE 6-0 1. Change total
appropriation amount to $5,654,343.55 which includes $5,541,592 for CDBG
