Council Auditor Kirk Sherman briefly
reviewed the 4 audits/reports released by his office since the last Finance
Committee meeting. With regard to Audit #784 – Loblolly Wetlands Mitigation
Bank, Mr. Sherman noted that there had been recent media reports in which
persons involved in the mitigation bank audit expressed disagreement with the
audit’s findings. He said that all parties had been given full opportunity to
express their opinions and pose any objections to the audit’s methodology and
findings before the document was released and welcomed continued dialogue with
any interested party.
#787 – Compensation and Benefits
Division Audit: the City’s self-insurance for employee health care seems to
have been successfully implemented and is seeing good results. There are still
some minor issues with offering insurance to eligible employees and with
starting and stopping premium payments for employees enrolling or disenrolling.
The eligibility and taxability of benefits for dependents age 26-30 are not
being properly managed. The City also needs to consider a requirement to have
employees over age 65 enroll in Medicare and make the City’s health insurance
the secondary coverage.
#747A – Follow-up Report on Indirect
Cost Allocation Report: two internal control weaknesses have not been fully
resolved. Lack of standard policies and procedures – the Budget Office will
have draft documents ready for Auditor’s Office review by May 2017. Inaccuracy
of costs to be allocated – the administration is working with the vendor on
process improvements for dealing with entry of equipment depreciation amounts.
#788 – Quarterly Budget Summary for
the 12 Months Ending September 30, 2016: the City ended FY15-16 with favorable
variances of approximately 1.5% in both expenditures and revenues. Mr. Sherman
recommended that the Council consider allocating some of the year-end fund
balance to the Emergency Reserve account, which currently stands at 5% of the
General Fund budget, the low end of the 5-7% target range.
Motion (Schellenberg): direct the Office of General Counsel to
draft an ordinance under the Finance Committee’s sponsorship to appropriate $11
million of the FY15-16 year-end fund balance to the Emergency Reserve to
increase it to approximately 6% of the General Fund budget. Finance Director
Mike Weinstein agreed with the intention of increasing the Emergency Reserve to
the 6% level but suggested holding off on making the appropriation until the
administration completes collective bargaining negotiations with one or more
unions so that the financial implications of the bargaining process are
understood before placing the funds into a restricted reserve account. The
motion was approved unanimously with
the understanding that it will take 6 weeks or more for the bill to reach a final
vote before the full Council.
Council Member Schellenberg noted
the $2.68 million drop in the City’s communications services tax revenue which
he said is a statewide and national problem for local governments as the number
of landline telephones steadily decreases. He also noted that DirecTV is
currently pursuing a lawsuit regarding taxation of its services that, if
decided in the company’s favor, could result in a huge loss of local revenue
derived from taxing satellite services.
Mr. Sherman reported that the Fire
and Rescue Department ended FY15-16 with a $2.4 million unfavorable variance in
its overtime costs and that the Sheriff’s Office ended the year with a $10
million positive budget variance, due in part to its 3% personnel vacancy rate
saving salary and benefit costs. In response to a question about accounts that
ended the year with a deficit, Budget Officer Angela Moyer said that the
administration has merged several funds in the Sports Complex and Public
Parking budgets into larger combined funds that should resolve the insolvency
problems beginning in the FY16-17 budget. Mr. Sherman also reported that he
will be meeting on Friday with representatives of the JTA to discuss the need
to improve timeliness of their responses to the Auditor’s Office’s inquiries
and requests.
Deputy General Counsel Peggy Sidman
distributed copies of an e-mail from Assistant General Counsel Jody Brooks to
General Counsel Jason Gabriel recounting her meeting with an attorney for the
Loblolly Mitigation Preserve, the manager of the City’s Loblolly Wetlands
Mitigation Bank to reconcile differences in the ledgers, schedules and reports
that describe the activities of the mitigation bank and account for the credits
belonging to each party. Additional reconciliation work on more recent
transactions was requested with a due date of January 17th.

Summary Fact Sheet PHS: Am/Apv Budget Officer Angela Moyer explained
the Mayor’s transfer authority of up to $100,000 for previously appropriated
funds but noted that since this is a new grant not appropriated in the
FY16-17 budget, the Mayor has no transfer authority. The committee discussed
the possibility of amending the Ordinance Code to give the Mayor authority to
approve expenditure of small amounts of new funding such as this grant, which
may cost more to prepare and process the legislation than the amount of
funding to be received. Peggy Sidman cautioned the committee to be very
cautious about delegating away the legislative branch’s fundamental authority
to control expenditures. The committee will take up the topic at a future
meeting. AMEND(PHS)/APPROVE

Summary Fact Sheet The committee discussed the potential
need for an amendment to add appropriation language by the City Council or
whether the action of the Council acting as the governing board for the CRA
was sufficient to move the funds. Kyle Billy reported that a legal opinion by
the General Counsel’s Office on this subject in underway and near completion,
but without a completed, issued opinion the Auditor’s Office recommends the
additional Council appropriation language in an abundance of caution. Budget
Office Angela Moyer asked for the inclusion of a Budget Transfer (BT) form
or, if the CRA board is determined to be the appropriating authority, a BT
equivalent document that clearly tells the Accounting Division where funds
are being transferred to and from. AMEND/APPROVE
7-0 (Correct a date, add appropriation language, correct section reference, Revised
Project Summary, attach JIA CRA Board Resolution) |
