The Honorable Mayor Antonio (Tony) Martinez The Honorable City Commissioner at Large “A” Cesar De Leon The Honorable City Commissioner at Large “B” Rose M.Z. Gowen, MD The Honorable City Commissioner District 1 Ricardo Longoria, Jr. The Honorable City Commissioner District 2 Jessica Tetreau The Honorable City Commissioner District 3 Deborah Portillo The Honorable City Commissioner District 4 John Villarreal

Honorable Mayor & City Commissioners:

We are pleased to present the adopted annual operating budget for the City of Brownsville for fiscal year 2016. This budget was approved in accordance with the City Charter and budgetary laws of the state of Texas.

Budget Highlights

Revenues  Sales Tax revenue adopted with a 2% increase from prior year.  Property Tax revenue adopted with a 2.36% increase from prior year in the General Fund and Debt Service Fund.  The adopted property tax rate remains the same at $.700613 per $100 valuation.

Expenditures  City’s employee retirement contribution rate was lowered by 3.34% from prior year.  No cost-of-living increases were given.  Nine new positions were added at a total cost of $327,122 in the General Fund.

General Fund

The General Fund budget consists of $98,812,938 in revenues/transfers and $98,812,938 in expenditures/transfers. The budget is being balanced with the property tax rate of $.700613 per $100 valuation or with the same property tax rate as fiscal year 2015. The revenue/transfer account includes a cash transfer of $2,000,000 from the Veterans Bridge Fund. The projected unassigned fund balance at the end of fiscal year 2015 is $10,017,157 or approximately 10.14% of budget expenditures. Our

1

target or our fund balance policy states that at the minimum the City should maintain at least 15% of unassigned funds in reserves based on its expenditures. Please note that the 10.14% is based with an anticipated unassigned fund balance of $10,017,157 at the end of fiscal year 2015. Historically, the General Fund has always ended the fiscal year with a higher fund balance because actual expenditures have never exceeded budget expenditures. The estimated ending fund balance is listed on page 82.

This budget reflects a sales tax revenue increase of $548,202 or 2% over the sales tax budget of fiscal year 2015. Through August 2015, sales taxes have increased $1,094,987 or 4.52% over the same period as fiscal year 2014. Sales taxes began to improve during fiscal year 2011 after two years of declines during fiscal years 2009 and 2010.

The adopted fiscal year 2016 ad valorem tax levy was calculated by applying the 2015 fiscal year property tax rate of $.700613 per $100 valuation, and not the effective tax rate of $.699603 per $100 valuation; the percentage increase is .14% The ad valorem tax rate distribution between the General Fund and Debt Service Fund are listed on pages 48 through 53.

Below is a schedule comparing the budget revenues between fiscal year 2015 and 2016:

Amended Adopted Over FY 2015 FY 2016 (Under) Budget Budget FY 2015 Revenues: Property Taxes $ 26,671,428 $ 26,982,820 $ 311,392 Sales Taxes 27,410,120 27,958,322 548,202 Non‐Property Taxes 325,000 380,000 55,000 Fines & Forfeitures 3,410,831 3,117,778 (293,053) Licenses & Permits 1,996,225 2,030,450 34,225 Fees & Services 19,145,656 19,994,004 848,348 Intergovernmental 3,428,093 1,562,483 (1,865,610) Interest Income 55,000 58,000 3,000 Contributions & Miscellaneous 3,573,984 2,405,731 (1,168,253) Utility Services From BPUB 4,523,350 4,523,350 ‐ BPUB Cash Transfer to General Fund 7,122,082 7,600,000 477,918 Total Revenues 97,661,769 96,612,938 (1,048,831)

Total Revenues Plus Inter‐fund Transfers $ 99,906,769 $ 98,812,938 $ (1,093,831)

Budget revenues plus interfund transfers for fiscal year 2016 are $ 1,093,831 below those of fiscal year 2015. Intergovernmental or state/federal grant revenues are normally awarded, along with corresponding expenditures, after the start or during the middle of the fiscal year, and as result, only known intergovernmental revenues and expenditures are being included in the adopted fiscal year 2016 budget, which result in a $1,865,610 decrease from the previous fiscal year. The annual transfer from the Veteran’s Bridge Fund was decreased by $45,000 from prior year.

General Bonded Debt Service Fund

The major revenue source in this fund is the property tax. All long-term debt requirements are paid from this fund. This fund will have a projected fund balance $1,387,302 at the end of fiscal year 2016. Revenues and expenditures are listed on pages 240 – 242.

Landfill Tipping Fee Increase Fund

Motor Vehicle Parking System Fund

The budget under this fund shows $635,950 in revenues and $534,854 in expenses. Revenues and expenses for this fund are listed on pages 294 - 296.

Public Transit Fund

This fund shows an operating loss of $4,817,603 (page 302). Please note that all public transit systems in the United States operate at a loss. This is the reason why the federal and state governments provide cash subsidies to transit systems. Some cities receive their local share from a transit sales tax. The City tried to pass a transit tax in the late 80s, but it failed. The City can no longer pursue the transit tax because the City is already collecting the maximum sales tax of 2% allowed by the state. It would require special state legislation and local voter approval to increase the sales tax and dedicate it to transit. The net loss of $4,817,603 is being funded by federal, state and local funds. The Federal Transit Administration’s (FTA) grant for fiscal year 2016 is $1,200,000. The state’s grant is $523,708. The General Fund is contributing $1,932,621 as part of the City’s local share. The General Fund is also contributing $760,215 for the local share of planning and capital grants. The Brownsville Urban System, (BMetro) started construction on a new $6.2 million parking garage at the beginning of fiscal year 2014. About $2 million of this $6.2 million project was funded from local funds with the remaining funds being funded through FTA grant funds. Revenues and expenses are listed on pages 302-303.

Brownsville Golf Center Fund

This fund includes $504,400 in revenues and a General Fund cash subsidy of $308,000. The total expenses are $1,136,445. This negative budget variance will be covered by a positive beginning net position in fund. Revenues and expenses are listed on pages 310 - 313.

Capital Projects

The balance on ongoing capital projects is $22,396,949 (page 319). In addition, during fiscal year 2015, department submitted their capital requests for the next five years and are currently being prioritized for funding. Some of the items submitted for funding include streets, sidewalks, & trails, building improvements, emergency/non-emergency vehicles, and equipment.

Budget Summary

The total revenue and expenditure (expense) operating budget for all funds, excluding inter-fund transfers, is $133,884,372 and $134,728,327 respectively. The total revenues and expenditures (expense) for all funds are listed on pages 42 through 44. This budget does not include some additional personnel requests, capital expenditures or special projects costs. The total additional personnel costs, capital expenditures and special project department requests for all funds were $3,184,132, $149,952,256 and $1,088,700, respectively.

Please note that any fund showing a budget deficit will be subsidized through a cash transfer from the General Fund once it is determined that an actual deficit.

This budget includes property taxes based on a property tax rate of $.700613 per $100 valuation. The effective tax rate for tax year 2015 or fiscal year 2016 is $.699603 per $100 of property valuation. The adopted tax rate is .14% above the effective tax rate. Since the adopted tax rate is above the effective tax rate, we were required to hold two public hearings before the proposed tax rate was adopted. The first and second of these two public hearings were held on August 26th and September 1st, respectively. The 2015 rollback rate for fiscal year 2016 is $.754592 per $100 valuation. If the City adopts a tax rate that exceeds the rollback rate, voters may petition for an election on the tax increase. A successful election limits the City’s current rate to the rollback rate. The property taxes for fiscal year 2016 with a tax rate of $.700613 per $100 valuation were based on a 94% collection ratio; this ratio will generate $26,887,820 for the General Fund and $15,072,711 for the Debt Service Fund.

Even though the estimated fund balance shows 10.14% in unassigned fund balance, historically the City has had fund balances above the projections or above budget numbers constantly. The schedule that follows this page shows the history between the budget fund balance and the actual fund balance at the end of each fiscal year. In each of those years, actual fund balances have exceeded budget fund balances.

18 Community Profile missions. The project has three components that include the vertical rocket launch site, the launch command center and the ground tracking station. The time for the construction project will be 18-24 months. The capital investment is about $85 million. Several entities at the local, state and federal level have committed either funds, services, or tax abatements totaling approximately $37.135 million for this project. These committed funds are listed as follow:

Texas Space Port Trust Fund $ 13,000,000 Greater Brownsville Incentives Corp. (GBIC) 5,500,000 University of Texas System 4,600,000 Texas Emerging Technology Fund 4,400,000 Texas Enterprise Fund 2,300,000 * Point Isabel CISD, Chapter 313 1,700,000 Cameron County Tax Abatement 1,600,000 U.S. Economic Development Administration 1,200,000 * Texas Capital Fund 1,000,000

The construction of the three components will generate between 200-250 construction jobs. The GBIC’s $5 million contribution will generate about $51 million in annual salaries. It’s anticipated that about 15,000 annual visitors will visit Brownsville and Cameron County to watch a monthly launch. The first launch to be in 2017 or 2018. In order to develop talent, space companies will seek out internship opportunities with institutions of higher education. The Brownsville Independent School District already has created a curriculum for middle school students called the SPACE STEMS program to identify and prepare students for university astrophysics and in turn for space industry in Brownsville.

GENERAL FUND

This is the largest fund within the City. The general fund accounts for the majority of the financial resources of the government. General fund revenues include property taxes, sales taxes, licenses and permits, services charges, and other types of revenue. This fund includes most of the basic operating functions such as fire and police protection, municipal court, finance, city manager, city secretary, municipal information systems (MIS), legal, health, human resources, inspection, public works, traffic, parks and recreation, emergency medical services (EMS), engineering, zoning and general services and contingencies. The general fund is used to account for resources traditionally associated with government which are not required legally or by sound financial management to be accounted for in another fund.

Comments: The totals above are for the time frame dating back to October 2014 to June 2015 of this fiscal year. They consist of calls from the citizens and the call center. This department works, as needed in unison with public works, greens division and the parks & recreation. The O.E. officers issue notices to comply when violations are reported and as needed, citations when property owners fail to comply. The officers also conduct follow up inspections to see that said concerns have been addressed. The officers patrol their assigned areas/sections for weedy lots, illegal dumping, junk vehicles, etc. and addressed them as required by city codes. The O.E. department is currently training a new officer and he should have an area assigned to him within the next few weeks. The staffing is still one down an inspector as two officers left the department this year. I would like to fill that position as soon as possible, so that we may fully serve the needs of the community.

Comments: All categories were affected by a total of 68 bad weather days this year. We estimate a loss of potential revenues to be approximately $ 100,000.00 (see attached rain out log). We lost our greens this winter season for a total of 5 months which was the main reason for our loss of revenues this year. Our greens have recovered to 85‐90 % playability and we are improving daily. We are keeping the same goals we had for Fy 2015. If we get new golf carts, mowers, and maintain excellent course conditions, and we have less bad weather days, we expect to meet our goals for Fy 2016.

Capital Financing & Debt Impact

Capital projects are funded mainly from general obligation, certificates of obligation, and federal/state grants. Funding sources for current capital projects are represented by the following graph:

Current Major Capital Projects by Funding Source Other Sources, $775,000 , 2% Federal/State Grants, $12,095,252 , 26% General Obligation, $26,315,585 , 58%

Certificates of Obligation, $6,600,000 , 14%

The city’s current debt limit is $295,046,581 which is in excess of the City’s outstanding tax supported debt of $139,929,405. For fiscal year 2016, the ad valorem tax rate for debt service will increase from 24.08 cents per $100 assessed valuation in fiscal year 2015 to 24.77 cents per $100 assessed valuation or a 2.87% increase.

It is our opinion that current debt levels are manageable and will not have a negative impact on operations. In addition, favorable credit ratings have resulted in lower interest costs associated with debt issued by the city.

320 Long Term Capital Improvements Plan

The capital improvement program (CIP) process follows the operating budget cycle. During the months of October and November, departments submit their updated five‐year CIP to the Finance Department. The Finance Department compiles all the departments’ five‐year CIP updates and records all this information in book form. The City Manager then recommends to the City Commission those capital expenditures/expenses that should be funded during the first year of the five‐year CIP plan. Local funding for the proposed capital projects are from general obligation bonds or certificates of obligation.

During fiscal year 2015, departments submitted a total of $234,322,855 in capital project requests for a five year period beginning with fiscal year 2016. These requests are not funded but are included in our draft Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for possible inclusion in final CIP.

322 City of Brownsville, Texas Ad Valorem Tax Information Fiscal Year 2016

Property within the City is assessed as of January 1 of each year (except for business inventory which may, at the option of the taxpayer, be assessed as of September 1); taxes become due January 1 of the following year, and become delinquent on February 1 of the following year. Discount of 3% for October, 2% for November, and 1% for December are allowed. Taxpayers 65 years old or older are permitted by State law to pay taxes on homesteads in four installments with the first due on February 1 of each year and the final installment due on August1. Charges for penalty and interest on the unpaid balance of delinquent taxes are made as follows:

Month Penalty Interest Total February 6% 1% 7% March 7% 2% 9% April 8% 3% 11% May 9% 4% 13% June 10% 5% 15% July 12% 6% 18%

After July, penalty remains at 12%, and interest increases at the rate of 1% each month. In addition, if an account is delinquent in July, a 15% attorney’s collection fee is added to the total tax penalty and interest charge.

All taxable property within the City is subject to the assessment, levy and collection by the City of a continuing, direct annual ad valorem tax sufficient to provide for the payment of principal of and interest on all ad valorem tax debt, within the limits prescribed by law. Article XI, Section 5, of the Texas Constitution is applicable to the City, and limits its maximum ad valorem tax rate to $2.50 per $100 assessed valuation for all City purposes. The City operates under a Home Rule Charter, which adopts the Constitutional provisions. There is no constitutional or statutory limitation within the $2.50 rate for interest and sinking fund purposes; however, the Texas Attorney General has adopted an administrative policy that prohibits the issuance of debt by a municipality, such the City, if its issuance produces debt service requirements exceeding that which can be paid from $1.50 of the foregoing $2.50 maximum tax rate calculated at 90% collection. The issuance of the Obligations does not violate the constitutional restriction, City Charter provision, or the Texas Attorney General’s administrative policy.

By later of September 30th or the 60th day after the certified appraisal role is received by the City from the Appraisal District, the City Commission adopts a tax rate per $100 taxable value for the current year. The tax rate consists of two components: a rate for funding of maintenance and operation (General Fund), and a rate for debt service.

323 The City must annually calculate and publicize its “effective tax rate” and “rollback tax rate”. Two public hearings must be held if the proposed or adopted tax rate exceeds the effective rate by or the rollback whichever is lower. If the proposed or adopted tax rate exceeds the rollback tax rate, the qualified voters of the City by petition may require that an election be held to determine whether or not to reduce the tax rate adopted for the current year to the rollback tax rate.

The “effective tax rate” is the rate that raises the same total levy as last year from properties taxable in both years. The “rollback tax rate” means the rate that will produce last year’s maintenance and operation adjusted tax levy from this year’s adjusted values multiplied by 1.08 plus a rate that will produce this year’s debt service from this year’s unadjusted values divided by the anticipated tax collection rate.

The City honors a $6,000 ad valorem tax homestead exception for those property owners over 65 years of age. In 2004 the City adopted the tax ceiling provision for homeowner’s age 65 and older or disabled.

The Texas Tax Code provides that certain cities and counties in the State may submit a proposition to the voters to authorize an additional one-half cent sales tax on retail sales of taxable items. If the additional tax is levied, the effective tax rate and the rollback tax rate calculations are required to be offset by the revenue that will be generated by the sales tax in the current year. The City began collecting the additional one-half cent tax starting October 1, 1992 as authorized by an election held on August 10, 1991. The ad valorem tax reduction was effective beginning with fiscal year 1993.

In addition to the one-half cent sales tax the City was authorized to levy for ad valorem tax reduction, the voters also authorized an additional one-half cent for economic development. The City began collecting this 4A sales tax on January 1, 1992. During a special election held on November 6, 2001, the registered voters of Brownsville adopted Proposition One. Proposition One reduced the 4A sales tax by ¼ cent and concurrently levied or adopted a 4B sales tax of ¼ cent for quality of life projects.

Maturity selections shall be based on cash flow and market conditions to take advantage of various interest rate cycles. The City of Brownsville’s portfolio shall be designed and managed in a manner responsive to the public trust and consistent with the Investment Policy.

Each major fund type has varying cash flow requirements and liquidity needs. Therefore specific strategies shall be implemented considering the fund’s unique requirements. The City of Brownsville’s funds shall be analyzed and invested according to the following major fund types:

329 a. Operating Funds, b. Construction and Capital Improvement Funds, and c. Debt Service Funds.

FUND BALANCE POLICY The policy will ensure that the City maintains adequate fund balances and reserves in order to:

 Provide sufficient cash flow for daily financial needs,  Secure and maintain investment grade bond ratings,  Offset significant economic downturns or revenue shortfalls, and  Provide funds for unforeseen expenditures related to emergencies

The City’s financial statements for governmental funds will report up to five components of fund balance:

 Nonspendable  Restricted  Committed  Assigned  Unassigned

Operational Guidelines - The following guidelines address the classification and use of fund balance in governmental funds:

 Classifying fund balance amounts - Fund balance classifications show the nature of the net resources that are reported in a governmental fund. An individual governmental fund may include nonspendable resources and amounts that are restricted, committed, or assigned, or any combination of those classifications. The general fund may also include an unassigned amount.

 Encumbrance reporting - Encumbering amounts for specific purposes for which resources have already been restricted, committed or assigned should not result in separate presentation of encumbered amounts. Encumbered amounts for specific purposes for which amounts have not been previously restricted, committed or assigned, will be classified as committed or assigned, as appropriate, based on the definitions and criteria set forth in GASB No. 54. Encumbrances will be reported under the committed fund balance if approved by the City Commission. Encumbrances that are from the issuance of purchase orders will be reported under the assigned fund balance.

 Prioritization of fund balance use - When an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted (committed, assigned, or unassigned) amounts are available, it shall be the policy of the City to consider restricted amounts to have been reduced first. When an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which amounts in any of the unrestricted fund balance classifications could be used, it shall be the policy of the City that committed amounts would be reduced first, followed by assigned amounts and then unassigned amounts.

 Minimum unassigned fund balance - The City will maintain a minimum unassigned fund balance in its general fund ranging from 15% to 18% of the subsequent year’s

330 expenditures and outgoing transfers. This minimum fund balance is to protect against cash flow shortfalls related to timing of projected revenue receipts and to maintain a budget balance commitment.

Replenishing deficiencies - when fund balance falls below the minimum 15% range, the City will replenish the shortages using strategies and timeframes described below.

 The following budgetary strategies shall be utilized by the City to replenish funding shortfalls:

1. The City will reduce recurring expenditures to eliminate any deficit or, 2. The City will increase revenues or pursue other funding sources or, 3. Some combination of the two options just mentioned.

 Minimum fund balance shortfalls shall be replenished within the following time periods:

1. Deficiency resulting in a minimum fund balance between 12.5% and 15% shall be replenished over a period not to exceed one year 2. Deficiency resulting in a minimum fund balance between 10% and 12.5% shall be replenished over a period not to exceed three years 3. Deficiency resulting in a minimum fund balance of less than 10% shall be replenished over a period not to exceed five years.

Surplus fund balance - Should unassigned fund balance in the general fund ever exceed the maximum 18% range, the City will consider such fund balance surpluses for one time expenditures that are nonrecurring in nature and which will not require additional future expenditure outlays for maintenance, additional staffing or other recurring expenditures.

Implementation and review - Upon adoption of this policy the City Commission authorizes the finance department to establish any standards and procedures which may be necessary for its implementation. The finance department shall review this policy at least every two years and make any recommendations for changes to the City Commission.

REVENUE POLICIES The city will maintain, as permitted by law, a diversified revenue base to mitigate the effects of short-term fluctuations in any-one revenue source.

The City will estimate its annual revenues by conservative, objective, and analytical process. The City will project revenues for the next year and will update this projection annually. Existing and potential revenue sources will be reexamined annually.

As appropriate, the City will calculate the full direct costs of activities supported by user fees and consider such information when establishing user charges.

331 ACCOUNTING, AUDITING, AND FINANCIAL REPORTING POLICIES Monthly and annual financial reports will present a summary of financial activity by departments and funds.

The City’s Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) will present the City’s financial position and results of operations on a basis consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) applicable to local government.

In accordance with state law, an independent accounting firm will perform an annual audit of the financial statements of the City and will publicly issue an opinion thereon.

PURCHASING POLICY The City of Brownsville shall award all contracts and purchases through procurement processes or through non-procurement process, such as the Purchase Order or Purchasing Card (P-Card) or Requisition, Transaction, to responsive vendors that have not been excluded under Debarment and Suspension policy.

When dealing with formal or informal bids the decision to select a bid is based on a combination of price, quality, delivery time, and service reputation or “best value’ to the City of Brownsville.

If the competitive sealed bidding requirement applies to the contract for goods or services, the contract must be awarded to the lowest responsible bidder or to the bidder who provides goods or services at the best value for the municipality.

Change orders: A contract may not be increased by more than 25 percent or decreased by more than 25 percent without the consent of the contractor.

Local Preference: Preference will be given to purchases of like quality and cost to vendors who maintain a place of business within the City of Brownsville.

Purchases of $35,000 and above must be approved by the City Commission.

DEBT POLICY Texas Statutes do not prescribe a debt limit; however, by custom a practical economic debt limit of 5% of the assessed valuation is used. At the end of fiscal year 2015, the estimated debt applicable to the limit as a percentage of debt limit is 46.91%.
