2020-2021 Annual Tax Levy Resolution

RESOLVED, by the Board of School Directors of Wissahickon School District, that taxes are levied for school purposes for the school year beginning July 1, 2020, subject to the provisions of the Local Tax Collection Law, as follows:

1. Real estate tax. Real estate tax of 21.12 mills (or $21.12 per $1,000 of assessment) on the assessed value of all real property taxable for school purposes in this School District. (Levied under School Code §§ 672 and 673.)

2. Interim real estate tax. Interim real estate tax of 21.12 mills (or $21.12 per $1,000 of assessment) on the assessed value of taxable real property, as stated in interim real estate assessment notices, that constitutes construction of a building, an improvement to a building, or other improvement to real property, not otherwise exempt from taxation. The interim real estate tax is part of the real estate tax levy, and applies to the assessed value of taxable real property not included in the initial tax duplicate used in issuing initial real estate tax notices for the school year. Tax assessors are directed to inspect and assess all taxable real property in the School District to which any improvement has been made, and to give notice of change in assessed value as required by law. The interim real estate tax applies for that proportionate part of the School District fiscal year remaining after the property was improved. (Levied under School Code § 677.1.)

3. Utility realty used to generate electricity. The real estate tax and the interim real estate tax apply to all real property taxable for school purposes, including all property listed in the definition of “utility realty” under § 8101-A(3) of the Public Utility Realty Tax Act, that was classified in such definition as “utility realty” prior to January 1, 2000, and that was removed from such definition effective January 1, 2000, because used in generating electricity. The tax applies to such property to the maximum extent permissible under the Pennsylvania Constitution and the Public Utility Realty Tax Act.

4. Tax due date/delinquent status.

The Claimant and any person who assisted in the preparation of filing of a fraudulent claim shall be subject to criminal prosecution in accordance with applicable provisions and penalties as provided in the Pennsylvania Crimes Code.

2020 Homestead and Farmstead Exclusion Resolution

RESOLVED, by the Board of School Directors of Wissahickon School District, that homestead and farmstead exclusion real estate tax assessment reductions are authorized for the school year beginning July 1, 2020, under the provisions of the Homestead Property Exclusion Program Act (part of Act 50 of 1998) and the Taxpayer Relief Act (Act 1 of 2006), as follows:

1. Aggregate amount available for homestead and farmstead real estate tax reduction. The following amounts are available for homestead and farmstead real estate tax reduction for the school year beginning July 1, 2020:

a. Gambling tax funds. The Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) has notified the School District that PDE will pay to the School District during the school year pursuant to Act 1, 53 P.S. § 6926.505(b), as a property tax reduction allocation funded by gambling tax funds, the amount of $1,718,736.88.

b. Philadelphia tax credit reimbursement funds. PDE has notified the School District that PDE will pay to the School District during the school year pursuant to Act 1, 53 P.S. § 6926.324(3), as reimbursement for Philadelphia tax credits claimed against the School District earned income tax by School District resident taxpayers, the amount of $1,539,889.65.

c. Aggregate amount available. Adding these amounts, the aggregate amount available during the school year for real estate tax reduction is $3,258,626.53.

2. Homestead/farmstead numbers. Pursuant to Act 50, 54 Pa. C.S. § 8584(i), and Act 1, 53 P.S. § 6926.341(g)(3), the County has provided the School District with a certified report listing approved homesteads and approved farmsteads as follows:

a. Homestead property number. The number of approved homesteads within the School District is 9,085.

b. Farmstead property number. The number of approved farmsteads within the School District is 2.

c. Homestead/farmstead combined number. Adding these numbers, the aggregate number of approved homesteads and approved farmsteads is 9,087.

3. Real estate tax reduction calculation. The school board has decided that the homestead exclusion amount and the farmstead exclusion amount shall be equal. Dividing the paragraph 1(c) aggregate amount available during the school year for real estate tax reduction of $3,258,626.53 by the paragraph 2(c) aggregate number of approved homesteads and approved farmsteads of 9,087. (before considering the assessed value of approved homesteads and approved farmsteads having an assessed value below the preliminary calculation of the maximum real estate assessed value reduction amount to be established as the homestead and farmstead exclusion amount), the preliminary calculation of the maximum real estate tax reduction amount applicable to each approved homestead and to each approved farmstead is $358.64. -1- 6-5 #NF 4. Homestead exclusion calculation. Dividing the paragraph 3 maximum real estate tax reduction amount of $358.64 by the School District real estate tax rate of 21.12 mills (.02112), the maximum real estate assessed value reduction to be reflected on tax notices as a homestead exclusion for each approved homestead is $16,981, and the maximum real estate assessed value reduction to be reflected on tax notices as a farmstead exclusion for each approved farmstead is $16,981.

5. Homestead/farmstead exclusion authorization – July 1 tax bills. The tax notice issued to the owner of each approved homestead within the School District shall reflect a homestead exclusion real estate assessed value reduction equal to the lesser of: (a) the County-established assessed value of the homestead, or (b) the paragraph 4 maximum real estate assessed value reduction of $16,981. The tax notice issued to the owner of each approved farmstead within the School District shall reflect an additional farmstead exclusion real estate assessed value reduction equal to the lesser of: (a) the County-established assessed value of the farmstead, or (b) the paragraph 4 maximum real estate assessed value reduction of $16,981. For purposes of this Resolution, “approved homestead” and “approved farmstead” shall mean homesteads and farmsteads listed in the report referred to in paragraph 2 above and received by the School District from the County Assessment Office on or before May 1 pursuant to Act 1, 53 P.S. § 6926.341(g)(3), based on homestead/farmstead applications filed with the County Assessment Office on or before March 1. This paragraph 5 will apply to tax notices issued based on the initial tax duplicate used in issuing initial real estate tax notices for the school year, which will be issued on or promptly after July 1, and will not apply to interim real estate tax bills.

6. Homestead/farmstead exclusion authorization – interim real estate tax bills. No homestead or farmstead exclusion will apply to any interim tax bill except an interim tax bill applicable to a property that includes an approved homestead or approved farmstead listed in the report received by the School District from the County Assessment Office on or before May 1, but not included in the tax assessment reflected in the July 1 tax bill for the property.

Dear Mr. Antonio and the Board of Directors:

The Wissahickon Valley Public Library is requesting that the Wissahickon School District Board appoint Sally West Williams to the Library Board. Sally resides in Blue Bell so she is eligible for a Whitpain appointment.

Sally previously worked as the Director of Advancement for the Germantown Friends School and is currently Co-Chair of their Advancement committee and their Alumni Council. Before that she worked as a Legal Administrator for David S. Foulke, PC. She is also a board member of Gwynedd Mercy University, and the Inter-Faith Housing Alliance. She even serves on committees for her church. Her fundraising and legal experience will be very valuable to the operations of the library.

I would be happy to provide any additional information. If the board would like to meet Sally prior to the school board meeting vote, would you please let me know and we can arrange to do so.

Thank you very much for your assistance.

Sincerely,

TO: Wade Coleman FROM: Gerry Moore DATE: May 21, 2020 RE: Natural Gas Purchasing

The cost to purchase natural gas is a culmination of the following components:  New York Stock Exchange, NYMEX, trading price for natural gas  A quoted cost (combination of “Basis” & “Delivery”) to provide gas to PECO  The “Basis” is a market price for capacity and is traded on the NYMEX  The “Delivery” is a fixed price per volume set by the supplier

Our Current contract expires June 30, 2021 with UGI Energy Services LLC, for Basis and Delivery costs of $1.110 per Dekatherm.

It is recommended to give the Director of Buildings & Grounds the authority to lock-in NYMEX pricing at various times during the 2020-2021 school year, in an effort to provide cost efficient purchasing of natural gas.

Recommendation: Transfer to Capital Reserve Fund - $3,900,000

Background: Included in the Budget (Account 5230) is $1,540,714 which was created by the Board as part of the budget process to fund future Capital Projects or eventually be converted to Debt. In addition, primarily because of positive news during the 2019-2020 school year, we are proposing the transfer of an additional $2,359,286 for a total transfer to Capital Reserve of $3,900,000.

#NF 16-8 WISSAHICKON SCHOOL DISTRICT

FUND BALANCE COMMITMENT

One requirement of GASB Statement #54 is that school boards commit their fund balance prior to the end of the fiscal year. The statement does not require that the amount be defined, but rather requires that the items be committed. In our June 30, 2019 financial statement, the District reflected commitments of fund balance for the following items:

General Fund:

 Compensated Absences $2,195,724  Future Maintenance & Improvements $5,362,959  Special Education $ 750,000

Capital Projects Fund:

 Capital Projects $20,483,579

We request that the Board approve the commitment of fund balance for the components listed above and that they agree that the amount of these commitments will be defined during the audit. We estimate that the amounts for June 30, 2020 will be as follows:

General Fund:

 Compensated Absences $2,239,638  Future Maintenance & Improvements $5,057,893  Special Education $ 750,000

Capital Projects Fund:

 Capital Projects $18,069,509  Stony Creek Expansion Escrow $ 2,200,743

Exclusions affecting students with disabilities shall also be governed by applicable state and federal law and regulations.

II. DEFINITIONS None.

III. POLICY Every principal in charge of a public school may temporarily suspend any student for disobedience or misconduct for a period of one (1) to ten (10) consecutive days in accordance with state and federal laws and regulations.

No student may be suspended without notice of the reasons for the suspension. The student shall be offered the opportunity to meet with the school official who holds the authority to reinstate him/her prior to the time the suspension becomes effective. At this meeting the student can respond to the reasons set forth in the notice and discuss the appropriateness of the discipline imposed. Neither prior notice nor the opportunity to meet is required where it is clear that the health, safety, or welfare of the school population is threatened. Suspensions may not be made to run consecutively beyond the ten- school day period. When a suspension exceeds three (3) school days, the student and parent/guardian shall be given the opportunity for an informal hearing with the principal.

Neither prior notice nor the opportunity to meet is required where it is clear that the health, safety or welfare of the school population is threatened. Should the in-school suspension exceed ten (10) consecutive school days, the student and parent/guardian shall be offered an informal hearing with the building principal. Such hearing shall take place prior to the eleventh day of the in-school suspension. The procedure shall be the same as the procedure for informal hearings held in connection with out-of-school suspensions. The District shall provide for the student's education during the period of in-school suspension. Expulsion Expulsion is exclusion from school by the Board for a period exceeding ten (10) consecutive school days.

The need for laboratory reports from law enforcement agencies. b. Evaluations or other court or administrative proceedings are pending due to a student's invoking his/her rights under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). c. The condition or best interests of the victim in cases of juvenile or criminal court involving sexual assault or serious bodily injury. 10.
