Motion by Kalo, seconded by Kokoski to adopt Resolution. Clerk called for discussion.

Lisa Hobart, Budget Director said the estimated revenue as of now, certified by the Budget Commission for 2011 is $42,143,107.00 for 2012 and budget packages have been received from departments in May of 2011 and certified in July when the Tax Budget is approved is $41,280,792. Commissioner Kalo said $1 million less revenue in 2012. Budget Director Hobart said in 2011 the current estimate for local government is $3.5 million and projected revenue looked as $4.2 million including all cuts, sales tax is trending at a higher rate, and current estimate is $14.4 million and in 2012 could be $14.8 million. Projected expenditures for 2011 are about $45,229,803.00 and 2012 are approximately $52,831,109.00. Commissioner Kalo said that is because the $6.8 million criminal justice fund obligation will now become general fund obligation in 2012. Commissioner Kalo said it is not that the county rose spending, Budget Director Hobart said absolutely not. She stated the estimated revenue; projected carryover vs. expenditures for 2012 is a shortfall of $6,250,317.00. Commissioner Williams said the expenditures for 2012 are $52,831,109.00 and asked how much this board has control over expenditures. Commissioner Kalo said the untouchables; Sheriff and/or Jail, $28 million with Prosecutors would be $26 million of non journal entries. Commissioner Kokoski asked if this was Board of Elections, Commissioner Kalo said they are un-touchable. Commissioner Kalo said the untouchables consist of;  Appellate Court at $197,000  Common Please $3.2 million  Domestic Relations $7 million  Probate Court $1/2 million even though there has been some cost savings of $20,000  Clerk of Courts $1.1 million based on breakdown  Muni Courts; Lorain, Elyria, Oberlin and Avon Lake (mandated) $1.1 million  Sheriff $5.2 million  Veterans Services last year budget not including increase they have requested this year at $1.1 million

These departments are ones that the board does not have the ability to change and could go up to $1/2 million more based on the request of Veterans Services which will be discussed next week. If you take the $26 million that is not ordered or funded, about 1/3 is fixed costs, can’t touch. County Administrator Cordes said the biggest line items are benefits/salaries and some fixed cost is around 30%. Commissioner Kalo said if you take 30%, 1/3 and take $9 million from $26 million equals $17 million in personnel costs that is touchable and take 1/3 to make the $6 million dollar shortfall. County Administrator Cordes said there is a smaller and smaller slide to deal with the issues if there is no ability to work within the 70-75% of the general fund expenses so clearly there is a large deficient and a very small pool. Commissioner Kokoski said Recorder, Treasurer; County Administrator Cordes said also Auditor, clerk of Courts, Prosecutors and Commissioners. Commissioner Kalo said the allocation for discretionary and cut everything there equals $564,000 to include Alliance, Transit, Office on Aging (Cordes said under ORC and the $78,000 is the salary); Glide, Team Lorain county, OSU (if not keep $86,400 and the 15% from solid waste would eliminate 4H program); Soil & Water equals around $1/2 million, so there is not a lot of discretionary spending left. There are no airport numbers which is only $50,000; County Administrator Cordes said the airport was around $600,000 several years ago but if the $50,000 is eliminated then the FAA has issues. Commissioner Kalo said the $6 million out of the $17 million can’t be touched and there is only an approximately 525 general fund employees which is down from 750 since he has taken office, so wonder where we would come up with the 1/3 of personnel . Commissioner Williams said he is ok to pass a resolution to have the hearings and let voters decide on the sales tax but would like to decrease the 5 years to 3 years. He also asked Assistant County Prosecutor Innes to speak of the case law he researched on the inside mileage. Commissioner Williams said this would take the 1.6 inside mill, property tax and then go with ½% sales tax increase and giving a break to homeowners and seniors.

44 Commissioner Kalo said this would place a hold on the 1.6 inside mileage. County Administrator Cordes said this is an interesting statue as Commissioner Williams introduced last week and previously understood that if the inside mileage was not utilized then other entities could take it and then Assistant County Prosecutor Innes researched it and it would be considered “parked” Assistant County Prosecutor Innes said this statue was not cross referenced with the sales tax it is 5705.313 and it does allow the Commissioners to reduce inside mileage with ah connections solely with the sales tax to be considered and no other entity could assume. Commissioner Kalo said do the Auditors need to submit numbers to see what the property owners would have in savings. County Administrator Cordes asked the Budget director how much is generated on the inside mileage, Budget Director Hobart wais $8.1 million. Assistant County Prosecutor Innes said this can be done in parts and can not be reduced more than the sales tax. County Administrator Cordes said since this is not cross referenced with the tax, so we are able to park the inside mileage for a future date rather than being exposed to other entities and this would shift costs around. Commissioner Kalo said it takes it from property owners and becomes a consumer tax. County Administrator Cordes said there are still folks out there that say no to any kind of tax. Assistant County Prosecutor said the board could pass a resolution at anytime relating to the inside mileage and will not be included in the sales tax resolutions. Commissioner Williams said then #16, 17 & 18 on the agenda do not have to be done today we could just hold hearings. Assistant County Prosecutor Innes said the board has to adopt something that will be considered for the hearings and notice in the paper. Commissioner Kalo asked if the Clerk had a copy of all the resolutions that were proposed last time, Clerk stated no. Commissioner Kokoski said there to have all these choices out there confuses the public looking like we are going after everything, we need to decide what we think or know we need and it will be easier for people to understand. Commissioner Kalo said the language of the ½% and coincides with the possibility of rolling back property tax. Clerk stated that the resolutions would reflect what is on the agenda except the ¼% would read ½% and number of years, etc. County Administrator Cordes said we would have to check on the mature indenture for the bonds, because some of the inside mileage is dedicated to the debt service. Budget Director said this is around $2.1 million. Commissioner Kalo said Veterans receive ½ of 1 mill in the language. County Administrator Cordes said they are eligible but there is no inside mileage directly for the Veterans, so this is an unfunded mandate. Commissioner Kalo said the resolutions before the Board are #16 (1/4% - 5 years criminal justice); #17 (1/4% - 5 years criminal and general fund) and #18 (1/4% - 5 years general fund) and add a, b and c to include ½%. Commissioner Kalo said the ½% is from Commissioner Williams based on the roll back of inside mileage Commissioner Williams said he would like to see a 3 year period and get possible additional revenues from the state and the casinos. Commissioner Kalo said ¼% at 5 years to see the economy spring back by then and if it is at ½% then 3 years and reinstate the inside mileage. Commissioner Williams said he would like to see all them at 3 years. Commissioner Kalo asked about wording, Clerk stated the resolutions that are listed on the agenda would read same except and then add three more with different years and include one with ½%. Commissioner Williams asked if we needed anything that is listed on the agenda, Clerk the Board needs to adopt something today for discussion purposes and then on July 27 would make the final decision. Clerk stated #16 is for criminal justice, #17 is criminal and general fund and #18 is general fund all at ¼% for 5 years. The Board has agreed not to do #17 criminal and general fund and #18 general fund, this sales tax resolution will only go towards criminal justice. Commissioner Williams said then have 16A for ¼% criminal justice for 3 years; 16B for ½% for 5 years and reduction of 1.6 inside mileage Commissioner Kalo said the inside mileage does not go with the sales tax resolution. Commissioner Williams said if we do not have this language his concern is people not voting for it. Assistant County Prosecutor Innes said this will not appear on the ballot, Commissioner Kokoski said the Board needs to educate the people in the hearings and newspapers, etc. Commissioner Kalo said once the sales tax resolution is approved then can the board approve a resolution stating that the passage of the ½% sales tax will rollback the1.6 inside mileage, Assistant Prosecutor Innes said yes. Commissioner Kokoski said when the Board approved the passage last time, where is the dollar figure showing the average person for the increase, clerk stated she has this information was around $.25/day, Commissioner Kokoski said would this be a wash for the homeowners and seniors. County Administrator Cordes said this will not be a wash, there will be an offset and shift some of the burden and still is a revenue enhancement but no additional revenue. Commissioner Kalo said seniors won’t spend much on taxable and would see savings. Discussion continued and the following resolution was adopted:

This meeting was intense and towards the conclusion Lorain County indicated that they are agreeable to any solution as to not costing the residents. EPA offered a remedy that would issue audit and findings against the county for reallocating funds around the plan but will not fine for any recovery and have an additional 6 months to arrange the relationship different, which puts us into the new plan and looks like an agreeable solution and should have a final document within 1-2 weeks.
