Budget Message
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Commission
From: Jim Hanson, City Manager
Date: July 30, 2008
Attached is the draft budget for the City of Atlantic Beach for fiscal year This budget is balanced
2008-2009 for your review and consideration. The budget is balanced and and includes a 25%

funds in accordance with the policy established by the Mayor and
Commission.
Actions taken by the State Legislature and the passage of a statewide
referendum to limit property tax collections have caused cities and counties
across Florida to anticipate considerably lower property tax revenues in the Existing service levels

was not supported locally although it passed statewide. It is also clear that
the Atlantic Beach citizens want to maintain the current service levels.
Following instructions from the City Commission, this draft budget
maintains service levels at the same levels that exist currently. Over the
last nine years, the City Commission has increased the service levels in
many departments, particularly for maintenance of parks, streets storm
water and police.
There is a nationwide crisis of deteriorating infrastructure that has been
building over many years. However, the overall condition of infrastructure Infrastructure in Atlantic

plans may not be done as quickly as originally proposed.
I
The Mayor and Commission have continued the annual strategic planning Each of the
process since 2000. This budget provides necessary funds for addressing Commission's strategic
each of the major strategic planning goals, and each of those will be goals is funded
referenced in this memo.
The total City employment for FY 2008-09 is 155 employees, which
amounts to an increase of two over the original budget. Both of the
additions were recently hired relate to the Mayport Corridor initiative.
Even though revenues are going down dramatically for most cities and
counties in Florida as a result of the property tax measures, many costs are
beyond the ability of cities and counties to control. Atlantic Beach is no
different in this regard with increasing costs for the fire, garage, and
sanitation contracts, rapidly increasing group health insurance costs and
energy related costs for gasoline, diesel and electricity. The total increase
in the next fiscal year is over $400,000. The City is implementing several
policies to control gas and diesel usage including the downsizing of the
fleet, anti-idling policies and the use of hybrid vehicles, but these measures
are not enough to offset the increased cost of fuel.
Property Tax Rate/Amendment One to the State Constitution;
Voters in January passed a statewide referendum that results in a reduction
in the tax digest by doubling the homestead exemption, placing a 10% per
year cap on the increased value of non-residential property, allowing
people with homestead exemptions to have "portability" when they move
and exempting tangible personal property. This compounds the difficulties
imposed by the Legislature in 2007 attempting to limit local government
tax rates. The amount of revenue received from property taxes equals the
amount of the tax digest multiplied by the tax rate. When either the digest To maintain service
or the rate decreases, revenues decrease. During the strategic planning levels, this budget
sessions, the City Commission indicated a desire to increase our efforts on includes an increase in
in the Mayport corridir area and maintain the other current service levels in tax rate to raise the same
Atlantic Beach, even if it meant increasing the tax rate so that the City amount of revenue as
could receive equal property tax revenues to those received in past years. last year.
This draft budget includes an anticipated increase in tax rate from 2.9974
mils to 3.1317 mils to offset the reduction in the tax base. Note that the tax
rate in Atlantic Beach in 2000 was 3.1721 mils. To increase the City's tax
rate will require the unanimous vote of the City Commission. If the
Commission does not want to raise the tax rate, staff will be ready to assist
in the discussions to reduce service levels.
Other major General Fund revenue sources are mostly either flat or
decreasing next year. The exception is the franchise fees and taxes on
electric sales. The total estimate for electric franchise fees and taxes is up
II
by 7.5% next year. The other state revenue sources including
Communication Service Tax, revenue sharing, motor fuel tax and the
General Half Cent Sales Tax vary from no growth to a decrease of over
17%.
Mayport Corridor Revitalization Project;
The highest priority goal established by the City Commission in strategic
planning this year was the rehabilitation and revitalization of property on
either side of Mayport Road. This goal focuses not only on a reduction in
the crime rate but also on improvements in the quality of housing and
environmental conditions in the neighborhoods and, possibly most difficult, The highest strategic
in increasing the sense of neighborhood pride. No amount of government priority of the
intervention can be successful without support of residents. After the Commission is to

positions was approved by the City Commission. These included a from several

departments have put considerable time and effort into the Mayport
Corridor Project so far, adding recreational programs, forcing owners to
repair or demolish substandard housing and to activate various groups.
Generally, these have been done using existing resources. One major
program that has yet to be implemented is rental inspection which will
require landlords to register with the City and have their properties
inspected. It is anticipated that a new rental inspection fee will be charged
to the landlords to cover the cost for providing this service.
Royal Palms Subdivision Reconstruction;
The Royal Palms Subdivision is an older neighborhood in Atlantic Beach
where the storm water system was installed using corrugated metal pipes. Stormwater lines in the

the repairs so the first three phases totaling $2.8 million can be moved
ahead to the coming year. However, there will not be sufficient funds
available for the fourth phase scheduled in FY-12 without an increase in
the monthly stone water fee. The monthly fee only covers a small portion
of the stormwater costs, and an increase of$1.00 per month is proposed to

pay for this project in the short term and reduce the need for other funds to
subsidize this service after that. The rehabilitation of water and sewer lines
will be paid from the utility funds.
Water and Sewer Fu+ids;
New state and federal mandates limiting the nitrogen that can be discharged
into the St. Johns River have been imposed on wastewater plant operators
in the region. Atlantic Beach is currently evaluating of the best way to
meet the standard. Alternatives include upgrading one or both of the City's Cleaning up the St Johns
wastewater plants, combining the flows for the two plants, providing reuse River will require
wastewater for irrigation to reduce the volume of discharge in the St. Johns Atlantic Beach to invest
River, and working jointly with the City of Neptune Beach to consolidate almost$10 million.
wastewater treatment in Atlantic Beach. A preliminary report is expected
in September. Evaluation of the Neptune Beach option may take between
two and six additional months. Consequently, estimates for the cost of
meeting the TMDL standards are subject to change. However, the current
estimate is that the City of Atlantic Beach will spend $9.5 million dollars
on the plant upgrades and a reuse system. The replacement of one of our
water wells will cost another $800,000. Financing next year will equal
$1.3 million dollars and include the design for the upgrade of the city's
main wastewater plant and the new well. A total of$10.3 million dollars
will be needed over the next three years.
Water and sewer sales in Atlantic Beach as well as many other cities have
been declining over several years. More efficient plumbing explains only a
portion of the loss. Some of the loss here results from declining population
related to the closure of several mobile home parks and apartment Although water and
complexes (with the intention of developers to reconstruct higher density sewer rates have been

in the last year alone by 10%. Consequently, water and sewer revenues are
considerably less than budgeted. While a three-year rate increase was
adopted last year of 10% each year to be able to pay for the necessary
wastewater plant upgrades, revenues so far have been flat because of the
sales volume reduction.
Because of the reduced revenues, the City will not be able to continue the Rehabilitation of the

rehab project is included in FY-12 and thereafter.
Public Safety Building;
The need to provide better facilities for the Police Department has been
studied, discussed and debated over the last three years. An expansion of
the police building was first budgeted in the FY 2005-06. The discussion
has largely centered around where to put a new building. Several City- The best site for a new

construction. If the City were to begin advertising for an architect now, the
project would go to bid in late fall of 2009. Funding is included in this FY-
09 budget for the building design and for debt retirement payments from
the Half Cent Sales Tax Fund beginning in FY-10. However, the capital
cost will best be budgeted and financing obtained after bids for
construction are opened.
Other Strategic Plan Priorities;
Two of the City's major strategic plan priorities are currently underway
with no additional funding needed. Construction of the Hopkins Creek

construction of the Mayport Road medians. This has been in the strategic
plan for many years and has required a joint agreement between the City of
Jacksonville and the Florida Department of Transportation. This project
will be completed close to the end of this calendar year.
Salaries and Benefits;
Included in this draft budget are funds to provide the normal merit
increases that have been City policy since the pay plan was adopted in
2001. While these merit raises occur on October 1St of each year(subject to The City Commission

is included in this draft budget. This has traditionally been decided by the
City Commission during the budget workshops and is a subject of union
negotiations. The most current cost of living index shows a 5.3% increase
since this time last year. Each 1% cost of living adjustment will cost
$65,000 in salaries and benefits.
The rapidly increasing cost of group health insurance will be discussed Health insurance costs

employee, provides 50% of the cost for spouse or family coverage and has
a relatively low level of deductibles and co-pays.
One other subject that should be discussed in connection with the budget is
the policy for overtime. The City has been far more generous in making
overtime payments than required under the Fair Labors Standards Act,
which is both expensive and somewhat out of line with what other
employers in our area offer. Any changes would be subject to union
negotiations.
Miscellaneous Issues;
The budget for the Building Department is being moved to a separate fund
to comply with current accounting standards. This allows a clear
comparison of the building permit revenues to the expenses for providing
that service. A small portion of the Building Official's time will still be
allocated to the General Fund because of his remaining responsibilities for
building maintenance. A second change in the budget is the creation of a
position for an Assistant City Manager. It is anticipated that the Public
Safety Director will retire from that position effective September 30, 2008
and move into a new position as Assistant City Manager. Consequently,
the staffing in the City Manager's office will increase by one and the
staffing in the Police Department will be equally reduced.
One last strategic plan priority not yet reviewed is upgrading the
Information Technology systems. Several phases of improvements, mostly
consisting of new and upgraded software, were reviewed with the City
Commission during the strategic planning workshops. Phase One of those
improvements, the upgrade to "NAVILINE" software, is included in the
proposed budget. Phase Two and Phase Three improvements are proposed
in future years.
Sanitation rates should

increases in the sanitation contract. This appears relatively low in light of
the rising cost of gasoline over the last year.
Last, a list of major items that are not included in this draft is attached for
your review and consideration. These include such things as the cost of
living adjustment and rental inspection program which were previously
discussed as well as requests for new funds from various agencies, various
capital projects and other items.
Conclusion;
The City of Atlantic Beach has accomplished many goals in recent years to
improve the community through strong political leadership, strategic The City has upgraded
planning, conservative budgeting, and dedicated staff. Many of the services and
strategic priorities in recent years have revolved around infrastructure infrastructure in recent
maintenance. While infrastructure is deteriorating nationwide, Atlantic years and the citizens

projects and infrastructure maintenance will require the commitment of
most of the resources that the City has available. There will be little
flexibility left to take on new discretionary projects.
Past strategic goals of the City Commission have also included increasing
the service levels of parks maintenance, maintenance of City buildings,
storm water and police services. Many people have commented on the
change in the City over these years. The City Commission concluded that
the citizens of Atlantic Beach wanted to maintain service levels and
increase them in the Mayport corridor. This draft budget supports those
services. It will be necessary to increase some rates for services, although
those rate adjustments are moderate compared to increasing prices that we
are faced with.
We look forward to working with the Mayor and Commission to amend
this draft budget as desired and to further implementing your goals and
objectives.
Respectfully submitted.

Convention Development Tax Fund
Code: 120-xxxx-xx
Purpose:
This program is funded through the levy of the local tourist development tax. The City
receives 2% of the collections on the rental of living quarters, net of a 1% administrative
fee charged by the County, plus interest earnings on the funds received and invested.
These funds are restricted by Florida Statute 212.0305 for the extension, enlargement,
improvement, or construction of a multipurpose convention center, coliseum, or exhibit
center, or to acquire, construct, remodel, repair or maintain one or more convention
centers, stadiums, exhibit halls, arenas, coliseums.
In addition to the uses described above, the City of Atlantic Beach, through Resolution
91-5, has authorized these funds to be used to acquire and develop municipal parks,
lifeguard stations, and/ or athletic fields. Contributions to promote tourism in the beaches
communities is also an approved use of these funds.
Issues, Trends and Highlights:
The City designated $290,000 of fund balance for the proposed purchase of the Buchman
Trust property for preservation purposes in 2007-08. An agreement could not be reached
with the owner of the property, so $245,000 of the original designation of fund balance
was released. The remaining $45,000 was designated to be used for public art.
® Next year, the City will again contribute $25,000 to the Beaches Historical Museum.
This is the fifth and final installment for the project.
• The City will continue to contribute $15,000 to the Chamber of Commerce to promote
tourism through their web site in 2008-09.

Half Cent Discretionary Sales Tax Fund
Code: 131-xxxx-xxx
Purpose:
To provide for the collection and spending of the additional half cent sales tax. These
funds are to be restricted for use for capital projects that are similar in nature to those of
the Better Jacksonville Plan. These projects will typically include General Government
projects such as streets, public facilities, parks or land acquisition.
Issues,Trends and Highlights:
• Mayport Road medians construction funds of$350,000 for FY08 were anticipated to be
spent by the end of the fiscal year for completion of this project.
• Approximately $28,000 was spent in FY08 to purchase and install a new emergency
communication center console in the existing police building.
• The FY08 budget provided $360,000 for the purchase of the Buchman Trust property for
conservation. An agreement could not be reached with the owner of the property, so
$335,000 was returned to unreserved fund balance. Part of the remaining $25,000 was
used for public art.
® A $300,000 transfer in FY09 will be used to support capital projects in the Storm Water
Utility fund.
® Design for Public Safety building renovations has begun. $330,000 was provided in the
FY08 budget as a transfer to the Governmental Capital Project Fund. An additional
$330,000 transfer is budgeted in FY09 to complete the funding for building design.
® Beginning in FY10, the Half Cent Sales Tax revenue is proposed to be the source for debt
service payments on the Public Safety building, currently estimated at$457,000 per year.
