• The Visit Alexandria subsidy decreases due to one-time savings associated with the use of $55,000 in destination advertising carryover savings, the restoration of full membership fees, and a temporary reduction in international and meetings marketing. These decreases are offset by personnel increases such as annual merit and health insurance rate increases. Other non-personnel costs such as office rent, website maintenance, and printing increase to maintain current service levels.

• The Alexandria Economic Development Partnership City subsidy increases by $52,100 or 2.0%. Regular benefit increases, operational expenses associated with teleworking, and increased contract costs drive their budget growth. This increase is offset with savings in transit benefits, the elimination of the federal 990-T tax which no longer applies to nonprofits, and reduced office lease costs. Additionally, AEDP is temporarily suspending their annual professional photography, regular website upgrades, and business executive stakeholder focus groups for $33,000 in savings.

• The Small Business Development Center subsidy increases due to health insurance rate increases and the continuation of a Program Services Coordinator position that works, in part, to coordinate increased dual language (English and Spanish) outreach and programming efforts, at a cost of $48,000 previously supported through CARES funding and a private donation.

• Grants increase by $13,439 or 0.5% due to increases in projected grant revenue and program income based on historical revenue. The increased revenue will be spent on acquisition, rehabilitation, and architect expenses.

• The FY 2022 to FY 2031 City Capital Improvement Program proposes $68.0 million in Affordable Housing monies, with $7.2 million proposed for FY 2022 which reflects a $2.6 million General Fund makeup of COVID-19 related restaurant meals tax revenue losses.

FISCAL YEAR HIGHLIGHTS

• Personnel increases due to regular changes in salary and benefits resulting from turnover and the addition of three funded overhires. Two of these overhires were added but not funded in the FY 2020 Budget to assist in executing the FY 2020-2021 Long-Range Planning Work Program, while the third overhire was added but not funded in FY 2021 to assist in processing development special use permits and projects. These increases are offset by vacancy savings.

• Non-Personnel decreases due to reduced costs for development studies slightly offset by increased telecommunication and software costs.

• The General Fund budget increases due to the changes described above.

• The Other Special Revenue budget decreases due to salary and benefit fluctuation due to turnover.

• DASH, or the Alexandria Transit Company (ATC), City financial support remains stable for FY 2022. The DASH proposed budget includes a $1,105,283 increase in current services which enables it to implement a limited, cost-neutral version of the Alexandria Transit Vision Plan. Projected passenger revenue decreases by $1,992,000 assuming 50% ridership of pre-COVID levels. This reduced revenue is slightly offset by the introduction of exterior bus advertising. In total, this would increase the City subsidy by $1,292,277 or 7.7%. However, funding designated for local transit from the CARES Act and the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021 (CRRSAA) offsets the increase, enabling the General Fund subsidy to remain flat from FY 2021. In FY 2020, $3,822,711 in one-time City funding supported a collective bargaining agreement between Transit Management of Alexandria, Inc. (TMA) and the Amalgamated Transit Union Local 689 (ATU). • The King Street Trolley decreases due to a two-month reduction in service offset by current services increases. The King Street Trolley will not run for the first two months of FY 2022 due to the pandemic and the resulting low level of tourists. • Department of Transportation (DOT) Paratransit does not change from FY 2021. • The City’s contribution to the VRE does not change from FY 2021. • WMATA’s proposed operational budget decreased by $209.8 million over FY 2021, reducing the City’s contribution by $6,496,533 or 12.0% to $47,454,181. The reduction is due to the FY 2022 3% legislatively-capped operating subsidy growth being applied to an FY 2021 base that was lowered by the one-time use of CARES Act funding to reduce jurisdictions’ shares. It will result in significant service reductions in the second half of FY 2022 unless alternative funding is identified by WMATA. The subsidy does include Silver Line Phase 2 which is a regional increase of $41.5 million, Cinderbed bus maintenance costs ($3 million), and WMSC Support ($2 million). The implications of WMATA’s budget include $170 million in service cuts which do not impact Alexandria’s level of service substantially until the second half of FY 2022 when bus service absent new federal funds is planned to be cut by approximately 50% region-wide, and rail service will experience longer headways and will close at 9 p.m. each night. The General Fund portion of the City subsidy remains flat.

• All programs reflect the a 50% decrease in all General Fund travel, conferences, mileage and education and training dollars. • Leadership and Management increases due to regular salary and benefit increases and capital outlays associated with vehicle replacement offset by savings recognized in worker’s compensation, the elimination of a one-time transfer to the Equipment Replacement Fund, and reduced fuel and maintenance cost assumptions. • Development & ROW Permitting decreases due to regular salary and benefit fluctuation offset with the reallocation of software costs to the Leadership and Management program. • Fleet Services increases due to regular merit and benefit increases, additional custodial contractual expenditures, increased bulk oil costs, and restored equipment replacement expenses. • Transportation Planning decreases due to reductions in cash capital and debt service, per the TIP plan. This reduction is partially offset by personnel increases associated with reallocations and regular salary and benefit fluctuation and an increased transfer to the CIP. • Resource Recovery increases due to the addition of two rear loading trucks and 6.00 FTEs to support in-house yard waste collection. • Sanitary Infrastructure primarily increases due to a $6.35 million increase in cash capital and the restoration of equipment replacement, including a reallocation of street sweeping equipment into the Sanitary Infrastructure Fund. Additionally, 4.50 FTEs are added to support the accelerated sanitary and stormwater infrastructure projects. • Public Works Services primarily increases because of the trade workers reclassification completed in FY 2021 resulting in increased personnel costs. • Stormwater Utility increases due to an $11.11 million an increase in the transfer to the CIP and the addition of 7.50 FTEs to support projects targeting flood mitigation and increased storm sewer capacity. • Traffic & Parking Operations decreases due to street light electric utility savings from the transition of existing streetlights to LED technology and reduced credit card processing fees for parking meters. • Traffic Engineering remained relatively flat from FY 2021. • Mobility Services increases due to regular salary and benefit increases in addition to increased non-personnel costs associated with maintenance and rentals offset by parking garage management savings and office lease savings.

The Stormwater Utility Fee makes the funding burden more equitable by basing the fee amount on the amount of impervious surface on a property. The fee structure for residential properties, such as condos, townhomes, and single family homes, is billed using a tiered method. For all non-residential properties, such as commercial, industrial, apartments, non-profits, and religious properties, the approved fee structure is billed using a variable method. This means that the fee is individually calculated for each non-residential property. The new Stormwater Utility took effect January 1, 2018. In FY 2021, the Stormwater Utility rate is proposed to increase midyear from $140 to $210 to expedite projects which would address stormwater capacity. The FY 2022 proposed budget includes a Stormwater Utility rate increase of $70 to $280. This increased effort includes the addition of 7.50 FTE in the Stormwater Utility Fund. The FY 2022 proposed budget also reflects the start of a fee crediting program for property owners receiving real estate tax relief.

TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PLAN (TIP)

The Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) Fund is the City’s 2.2 cents of reserved real estate tax revenue, which provides funding for transportation and transit capital infrastructure and the associated operating expenses therein. The TIP continues to support programs such as Capital Bikeshare, King Street Trolley service, bus shelter maintenance, and street repair. Additionally, $2.2M of TIP funding is being used towards WMATA’s subsidy for FY 2022.

RESIDENTIAL REFUSE FUND The City of Alexandria collects trash, recycling, and yard waste from its residential customers once a week on a designated collection day. Residential customers are charged a Solid Waste User Fee on the residential tax bill on a bi-yearly basis. In FY 2020 the program was moved from the General Fund to a separate self supported special revenue fund. Due to the high cost of the privatization of yard waste collection, that service is brought in house, resulting in the creation of 6.0 FTEs and the purchase of two rear loader trucks, supported through a $500,000 transfer from the General Fund. The proposed fee remains flat at $460.00 per year.

HB2313 FUND (NVTA 30% REVENUE)

The HB2313 fund must include NVTA 30% revenue and at least the City's 12.5 cent of the commercial and industrial real estate value equivalent revenue from the General Fund to be spent on transportation. In order to be eligible for Northern Virginia Transportation Authority (NVTA) Regional 30% funds, the City is required to deposit at least the equivalent of a 12.5 cent of the commercial and industrial real estate tax value into the HB2313 Fund, and then transfer that amount to a separate fund for transportation. The 12.5 cent commercial and industrial real estate tax equivalent for FY 2022 is $10,893,472. To satisfy this requirement, the DASH Operating General Fund subsidy of $16,686,497 in FY 2022 is transferred through the HB2313 Fund. The remaining FY 2021 revenues received from NVTA 30% funding includes $1,573,000 for WMATA operating costs, and $4,725,000 for the WMATA capital subsidy.
