6 May 2, 2016 To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the Municipal Council Council Members: Under the provisions of Chapter 10 of the Charter of the City of Alpena, the City Budget for the fiscal year is hereby submitted to the Municipal Council. The budget proposes an unassigned fund balance of $2,348,593 at the end of the budget year (June 30, 2017). The fund balance represents approximately 22.39% of total General Fund Expenses and other uses. This percentage provides the City with a reasonable surplus in the event of unforeseen expenses or reductions in revenues. This is consistent with adopted Council policy requiring a 10% minimum fund balance and a 20% maximum fund balance. The City depends largely on its three major sources of revenues; state revenue sharing, emergency medical services and property taxes. We have experienced over 4.8 million dollars cumulative loss of state revenue sharing from Part of the program has been revised into what is now known as the City, Village, and Township Revenue Sharing (CVTRS). The budget stabilization fund will have a balance of $20,000 at the end of While not significant, it is an effort to build the fund back up with annual contributions. Taxable value decreased from $254,592,050 in 2015 to $235,934,419 for This 7.33% decrease is due to the Industrial Personal Property Tax Exemptions. During the poor economic times beginning in 2008, capital items and maintenance projects had to be eliminated, delayed or reduced in scope. Our infrastructure and building maintenance cannot continue to be delayed. Due to deteriorating conditions, building maintenance has become a higher priority. We prioritized projects so that the most needed capital projects could be done. The Budget proposes a tax rate for General Fund operations of mills which is the same as last year and a tax rate for DART of mills, the same as last year. The City currently has no debt millages. The Budget is proposed to fund some but not all of the projects from the Capital Improvement Plan listed for The following CIP projects were reviewed and revised where necessary from the CIP process to the budget process: Final CIP Annual Budget CITY HALL Election Accuvote Machines 10,000 0 City Hall Rehabilitation 10,000 0 Economic Development Marketing Program 25,000 9,000 City Recreation Plan Update 0 3,000 Reappraisal of City Residential Class 90,000 90,000 TOTAL 135, ,000 2

Health care and pensions are the most costly benefits in the budget. Effort has been put into reducing health care costs, including cost sharing by the employees which will be up to 20% on July 1, The City s contribution to the pension program decreased from $738,836 in to $722,318 in Though the contribution is lower than the prior year, it is higher than expected. The system has gone from a funding level of 136.2% in 2001 to 86.3% as of December, The largest source of revenue for the City comes from property taxes. The City s total taxable value decreased from $254,592,050 in 2015 to $235,934,419 in 2016; a decrease of approximately 7.33% due to Industrial personal property exemptions. The State has informed all municipalities that loss of revenue for personal property taxes will be reimbursed fully. 6

11 The Fire/Ambulance Department has increased revenues through new programs and services such as the long-distance transfers of critical care patients. The State revenue sharing is the third largest revenue source and brought in $1.15 million in For comparison, the City received $1.75 million in Respectfully Submitted, Greg E.

13 City of Alpena CREATING THE FUTURE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The City Council of Alpena met on April 18 and 25, 2009 to develop a vision for the City, identify the values that are important guiding principles for the City, and to develop a strategic plan identifying key priorities for the City for the next three to five years. Several community members also participated in the April 18 meeting. The group identified 21 key strategies for achieving the vision.

Vibrant Downtown Small Town Feel Business & Commerce Consolidation of Government Services Higher Education Economic Diversity Waterfront Development Technology Infrastructure 12

17 CREATING THE FUTURE Obstacles Looking back from great success, what were the obstacles that had to be overcome to achieve the vision for the City of Alpena? Council members and staff identified the following key obstacles. Lack of $/budget Lack of cooperation (internal & external) Community apathy Public Opinion Policies (lack of, limiting, too much) Turf battles (government and agencies) Lack of resources (time, staff, money) Fear (failure, unknown, ridicule, re-election) Small Group Minority/Vocal Majority Politics Close-Minded Narrow Thinking Image (self & external) Pre-conceived ideas Having to do more with less "No" Boundary constraints / lack of room Limited staff, time, burnout Lack of citizens taking ownership Disconnect between staff and elected officials "Alpena mentality" - not good enough A discussion of the Obstacles allowed for clearing the air and served as a springboard for looking forward. Enablers What are the things we have going for us now that can help us create the City that we want? Council members and staff focused on the question, It s five years from now. You have had great success. What enablers were available that helped the City to achieve its great success? What resources did you take advantage of? The group identified the following enablers. Professional staff & council Partnerships o Public o Private 13

18 Built trust & core values Survival ability/adaptability Innovative & creative thinking Knowledge and innate ability Redeveloped downtown Natural resources Positive political endorsements "Get it done" mentality Cultural/recreational infrastructure Leadership Safety Manufacturing base Trust Volunteers/community spirit Technology Better service Cooperation amongst "powers that be" Grants STRATEGIC PROFILE Having considered the obstacles to success and possible resources that could be employed to achieve the vision for the City, participants then considered possible strategies that could be implemented to achieve success. After considering many possible strategies, participants identified 21 strategies for success. A. Educated staff, boards, council, etc. (training, workshops, abilities, skills) B. Built strong consensus and understanding for ideas (joint workshops, staff, council, community) - good communication with staff about what's happening C. Multiple opportunities for community involvement (solicited public input, listened with an open mind) D. Policies that support the vision and move us forward (ordinance, charters, etc.) E. Clear target market (who we are - tourism, manufacturing, other, seniors) F. Strong essential services (police, fire etc.) G. Strong infrastructure H. Great housing options (green/redeveloped/new) I. Great communication with state and federal legislators and agencies J. Partnerships - public and private (townships, county, MDOT, schools, service organizations, grants, etc.) K. Clear organizational priorities and goals L. Coordinated economic development plan & strategy M. Adequate resources - work together, committed to right things N. Marketed Alpena's assets O. Promoted and protected natural resources P. Found all available sources of funding (grants, private, public internal, external) 14

19 Q. Consolidated government services R. Encouraged employees input and participation S. Communicate information to public effectively (use technology, etc.) T. Empower citizens to find their own solutions and work together U. Capitalize on Alpena's small town feel Strategic Rankings The 21 strategies were ranked and plotted using Consensys technology. They were viewed from two perspectives. 1. Importance Looking back from great success, having implemented all of these strategies, which were the most important in achieving the City s vision? 2. Current Performance How well are you currently performing this strategy, as compared to where it needs to be? The following chart is an opportunity profile displaying the results of the evaluation. Letters on the chart correspond with the letters shown in the list of strategies. Profile Interpretation The items with the green rectangle around them are the most important strategies to be addressed first. 15

20 High-Leverage Opportunities Five strategies emerged as high-leverage opportunities (high importance, low performance). They are: Built strong consensus and understanding for ideas (B) Policies that support the vision and move us forward (D) Coordinated economic development plan & strategy (L) Clear target market (E) Promote & protect natural resources (O)* (note: this was moved to high-leverage because there is a clear discrepancy between the council s and staff s perception as to current performance see Appendix 1). Foundational Strategies Nine additional strategies (in blue) were identified as foundational strategies that must be continued. These are strategies that are important to continue, as they are foundational to the success of the City. Strong essential services (F) Strong infrastructure (G) Found all available sources of funding (P) Adequate resources (M) Public and private partnerships (J) Educated staff, board, and council (A) Clear organizational goals and objectives (K)* (moved to foundational based on discussion and consensus that action planning on the high-leverage opportunities would address performance issues on this strategy). Communicate information to public effectively (S) Multiple opportunities for community involvement (C) Mid-Term Opportunities (24-36 months) Seven additional strategies (in red) were identified as mid-term opportunities that should be explored. While these will take slightly longer to implement, research should be started soon. As performance improves on the high-leverage opportunities, these strategies are likely to increase in importance. Marketed Alpena s assets (N) Encouraged employees input and participation (R) Capitalize on Alpena s small town feel (U) Consolidated government services (Q) Great communication with state and federal officials and agencies (I) Great housing options (H) Empower citizens to find their own solutions and work together. (T) 16

21 FIVE BOLD STEPS When all of the activities from the strategic planning meetings are combined, the result was the following drawing that represents the vision and plan for the City. 17

Outside facilitator. Review recent plans Brainstorm what we want Alpena to be 120 days Identify opportunities for target market create public input forum Measurements: Agreed upon target markets 20

25 CONSENSUS While it is important to look at the overall voting results, it is equally important to consider the level of agreement for each strategy. Appendix 1 includes a complete set of diversity profiles, showing the average votes for staff members as compared to council members. In most cases, there is significant agreement among the groups (same quadrant = general agreement). Where there are significant differences, additional dialogue should be considered. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS There is much work to be done to turn these action plans into reality. The City is encouraged to add these items to quarterly Council agendas for the purpose of following up and keeping the focus on the important priorities that have been established. 21

35 2016 TRUTH-IN-ASSESSMENT The State of Michigan enacted Public Act 213 of 1981 on December 31, This law provides for a reduction in the authorized millage rate if the City's State Equalized Value exceeds its assessed value. Property taxes levied should not exceed that which would have been levied based on the City's assessed values. Calculations for the 2016 Truth-In-Assessment reveal the City is not penalized for assessing equal to the S.E.V. Old Formula: (Prior to 1995) Total 2016 Assessed Value = Total 2016 S.E.V. Truth in Assessing rollback $ 238,409,900 = $ 238,409,900 Starting in 1995, the language of MCL resulted in a different formula for calculating the Truth in Assessing Rollback because, starting in 1995, taxes were levied against Taxable Value, not S.E.V. The following is the formula for calculating the Truth in Assessing rollback for New Formula: 2016 Taxable Value based on Assessed Value = Truth in Assessing rollback 2016 Taxable Value based on S.E.V. $ 229,269,714 = $ 229,269,714 31

36 2016 TRUTH-IN-TAXATION Effective February 9, 1982, the State of Michigan approved Public Act No. 5 of 1982 or as it is generally known, Truth-In-Taxation. Briefly, this law states that the ensuing fiscal year tax revenues, less additions, cannot exceed the concluding fiscal year tax revenue. If it does, then the ensuing fiscal year millage is rolled back so that the tax revenues generated will be the same as the concluding fiscal year. The figures are provided by the assessor's office and confirmed by the county equalization director. These reduced millage rates can be overridden by holding a truth in taxation hearing or discussing it at the annual budget meeting Base Tax Rate Computation Formula: 2015 Taxable Value Taxable Value Losses 2016 Taxable Value Taxable Value Additions Real Property Losses Additions Personal Property 201 = $ 586, = $ 469, = 774, = 898, = 706, = 1,017,452 Total Real = $ 2,067,771 Total Real = $ 2,386,114 Losses Additions Total Personal = $ 24,055,600 Total Personal = $ 5,248,600 Losses Additions Grand Total = $ 26,123,371 Grand Total = $ 7,634,714 Computation: $ 247,418,964 26,123,371 $ 228,197,814 7,634,714 $ 221,295,593 = Base Tax Rate Fraction $ 220,563,100 (Cannot exceed ) 2016 Base Tax Rate Fraction = Maximum Millage rate = Base Tax Rate = x = Dial-A-Ride millage rate =.6500 x = Dial-A-Ride Base Tax Rate =

37 2016 HEADLEE TAX LIMITATION In 1978, the voters of Michigan approved the Constitutional Amendment Proposal E (the Headlee Amendment). The resulting change in the Constitution and its implementing statutes is a formula that limits the maximum tax rates that may be levied by local governments. These limitations do not apply to pension and debt service levy authorizations. Based upon current estimates, the tax limitation formula will result in no adjustment for 2016 tax rates, as follows: HEADLEE 2016 Millage Reduction Fraction Formula: (2015 Taxable Value - Losses) x CPI = M.R.F 2016 Taxable Value - Additions (247,418,964 26,123,371 x = ,197,814 7,634, Headlee Millage Reduction Fraction = (Cannot exceed ) History of Headlee Reductions City Operating Maximum Charter Millage Rate reduction fraction x Maximum Millage = through 1999 reduction fraction x reduction fraction x Maximum Millage = & 2002 reduction fraction x reduction fraction x Maximum Millage = reduction fraction x Maximum Millage = through 2015 reduction fraction x Maximum Millage Rate = Dial-a-Ride 1999 Maximum Millage reduction fraction x Maximum Millage = reduction fraction x Maximum Millage = Renewed by Vote Maximum Millage reduction fraction x reduction fraction x Maximum Millage = reduction fraction x Maximum Millage = reduction fraction x Maximum Millage = Renewed by Vote = through 2015 reduction fraction x Maximum Millage Rate =.6500 Comm.

Irrigation, landscaping and amenities within and throughout the park system are programmed to facilitate these improvements. The Parks Division s goal is to reduce total maintenance costs while improving the general appearance of all parks. A long-term goal of the City s Wildlife Sanctuary Board has been the development of an environmental interpretive center. Over the past two years, the Board and its appointed Interpretive Center Oversight Council have worked diligently toward this end. The River Center, as it has been christened, will be located in Duck Park along the banks of the Thunder Bay River and the City s Wildlife Sanctuary. The construction schedule for this project has yet to be determined and is dependent on receipt of grant funds.

The distribution of these funds to Alpena is based on the miles of streets in our system, a state factor, and the population of Alpena. There are 5.34 miles of state highway and miles of major streets within the City of Alpena. The City maintains US-23 and M-32 state highways within the City limits for the State of Michigan. The MDOT contract generates revenue, which is titled state trunkline maintenance. The costs associated with state trunkline maintenance are direct costs and the revenue received is based on this expenditure. The maintenance and construction associated with the major street system are funded primarily by state and federal funds. All of the major streets within the Alpena street system are paved. The City will again this year place emphasis on maintenance of our major street system. This emphasis on street maintenance will include $55,000 in Capital Preventative Maintenance funds to preserve and extend the remaining useful life of our streets. Work performed under this activity may include shoulder paving, crack sealing, chip sealing, joint repair, etc. This year will see the initiation of the road development into the US-23 North Property with $60,000 to perform environmental work and plan design. The City will also partner with the DDA to make the necessary modifications within the DDA to convert the one-way street system over to allow for two-way traffic, with $50,000 from the City and $25,000 from the DDA. The City will also continue the engineering on the Second Avenue bridge improvement project which has been funded by the Michigan Department of Transportation Critical Bridge program for $2,772,000 has been programmed for design engineering services and bridge repair. The City will also continue the process of changing out street name signs with those that meet the 2018 requirement for size and reflectivity.

96 Capital Outlay and Major Projects LOCAL STREET FUND The Local Street Fund works in a threefold capacity. First, the fund is utilized to receive all local street funds paid to the City of Alpena by the State of Michigan. Secondly, it is used to account for all construction including the moneys generated by special assessments, maintenance, traffic services, and snow and ice control. Thirdly, the fund is utilized to account for money received from the General Fund as contributions to the Local Street Fund. Every city is required to establish a Local Street Fund to comply with Act 51 of the Public Acts of The Local Street Fund has no employees but instead has employees assigned to it to perform maintenance and construction activities. Equipment is rented internally from the Equipment Fund to the Local Street Fund as needed. The City continues to utilize City personnel in a more active role in the maintenance of our Local Street system. Revenues are generated from several sources. The motor vehicle highway funds are generated from statewide gas and weight taxes. The distribution of these funds to Alpena is based on the miles of our street system, a state factor, and the population of Alpena. Local funds are moneys, which the local taxpayer contributes to maintain the local street system. Construction revenues are local funds set aside and invested for the specific purpose of upgrading existing or creating new streets. There are miles of streets within the street system, which are designated as local streets. The maintenance and construction costs associated with the local street system are funded primarily by local tax dollars. All but three one-block segments of the Local Street system are paved. The City will be resurfacing Maple Street from Third Ave to Washington Ave and Lewis Street from Second Ave to First Ave at a cost of $66,000. The City has also committed $75,000 for thin overlay resurfacing, $35,000 for Capital Preventative Maintenance to extend the useful life of our street system. Additionally High use alley paving is targeted at $35,000 and the initial design of the Johnson Street Bypass between Johnson Street and Long Lake Ave will be undertaken.

99 Capital Outlay and Major Projects MARINA FUND The Waterways Commission who controls the fee structure for both seasonal and transient dockage at the boat harbor have adjusted the way that fees are established. Previously, the City would have to appear at a Waterways Commission Meeting and state the City s case for an increase or decrease in their established rates. This year, the Commission published a broad range of fees and allowed each individual marina to pick their own. After consulting with Thunder Bay Shores Marine, our contract operators, the rates as proposed in the new fee schedule were agreed upon. This results in lower fees for both transient and seasonal boaters. As the contract operators keep all of the money generated from these fees, this will have a zero net impact on the City s budget numbers. Hopefully, the lower fees will result in increased business at the Marina. Dock Repairs $ 5,000 TOTAL MARINA FUND $ 5,000 DEPARTMENTS DESCRIPTION ACTUAL EST.

101 TREE/PARK IMPROVEMENT FUND In October 2006, the City of Alpena received two large donations from the Trust of Drew and Ethel McClay. One donation of approximately $70,000 was to be spent on park improvements and/or tree planting within the City. The second donation of approximately $90,000 was to be utilized for tree planting within the City. The Alpena Municipal Council authorized the investment of these donations and appointed a committee, consisting of the Mayor, the Planning and Development Director, and the City Engineer, to determine how these funds could be best utilized. The City also appointed one member each from the City Planning Commission and the Recreation Advisory Board to serve on this committee. The $70,000 donation was used to make improvements to Starlite Beach and its amenities such as the children's playscape. The balance of the donation will be used for tree planting projects and replacements throughout the park system. Funding was transferred to Local and Major Street funds, Parks & Recreation, and the Cemetery to offset expenses associated with tree planting to replace trees removed over the past several years.

107 AUTHORITY FOR BROWNFIELD REDEVELOPMENT The Authority for Brownfield Redevelopment Fund is used by counties, cities, villages and townships to assist in the redevelopment of underutilized properties due to environmental contamination, blight or functional obsolescence. The local unit may establish an authority under the Brownfield Redevelopment Financing Act (MCL et al.) to administer the activities authorized under the Act. The authority shall be administered by a board appointed pursuant to the requirements of the Act (MCL ). The City of Alpena Brownfield Redevelopment Authority was established by City Council Resolution No in March 1997, with the City's Downtown Development Authority (DDA) Board serving as the Brownfield Authority's Board as well. As the Brownfield Authority became more active the dual role of the DDA Board became less desirable due to increased workloads for the members and the increased likelihood of conflicts of interest between the activities of the two Authorities. In 2006, the original nine-member Brownfield Authority Board represented by the DDA was dissolved and a new, independent five-member Board established with a new set of by-laws. At its first meeting in October 2006, the new Board officially changed the Authority's name to the City of Alpena Authority for Brownfield Redevelopment. This fund is used to account for the administrative costs of the Authority. The Authority's debt service and capital project activities are accounted for in fund 402.

116 BROWNFIELD CAPITAL PROJECTS In accordance with Act 381 of 1996, as amended, the purpose of the City of Alpena Authority for Brownfield Redevelopment is to promote the redevelopment of contaminated, blighted and functionally obsolete properties within the City of Alpena through the use of Tax Increment Financing (TIF) and State tax credits (eliminated by the State in 2011). The Authority Board may approve site specific brownfield plans that provide financial incentives for environmental and development activities that support the redevelopment of the property, thereby creating investment, new employment opportunities and a rejuvenated tax base. A developer may be reimbursed for the cost of environmental activities such as site assessments, Baseline Environmental Assessments (BEAs) and remediation of known contaminants, as well as development activities including demolition and installation of necessary public infrastructure. These reimbursements may be funded utilizing the increase in tax revenues resulting from the new development that are captured under a TIF. Brownfield plans are reviewed and approved by both the Authority for Brownfield Redevelopment and City Council. Brownfield plans that capture state school taxes in addition to local taxes must also be approved by the Michigan Strategic Fund (MSF) Board in Lansing. To date the Authority and Council have approved six brownfield plans, two of which the NOAA Maritime Heritage Center and the Lafarge redevelopment project include both TIF tax revenue capture (including school tax capture) and tax credits. These two TIFs expired December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2015, respectively. A third, the Fletcher Street Brewing Company, received tax credits only. The fourth plan, for the Dean Arbour Ford auto dealership development at 1001 US 23 North, provides for TIF tax capture (including school tax capture), and was approved by the Brownfield Authority in late April 2010, by City Council in early May and by the MSF Board in late May Tax capture for this project commenced with the 2013 summer tax bill and will continue through December 31, The fifth plan, was approved by the Brownfield Authority and City Council in November 2014 and by the MSF Board in January 2015, for the new Holiday Inn Express hotel currently under construction in downtown Alpena. This plan provides for both local and school tax capture over a fifteen (15) year period, and includes a 10-year Commercial Rehabilitation local tax abatement. Tax capture will commence with the summer 2016 taxes. The most recent approved plan is for The Thunder Bay CJD auto dealership on Chisholm Street, which will undergo major upgrades commencing in This plan was approved by the Authority and City Council in October Since only local taxes are being captured, no approval by the MSF Board was required. This plan runs through

127 BROWNFIELD REMEDIATION REVOLVING FUND The Brownfield Remediation Revolving Fund (RRF) is used to support the development or redevelopment of contaminated or potentially contaminated sites within the City by providing funding, either through grants or loans, to conduct environmental site investigations, prepare BEAs and Due Care Plans, and conduct site remediation activities. The Authority Board establishes policies and procedures for use of the funds, including whether they shall be provided as a loan or a grant to an eligible recipient. Funding is provided through an approved Brownfield Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Plan via the capture of local property taxes once all other eligible expenses are reimbursed. In 2013, the Authority and City Council approved a Brownfield Plan to allow for the expenditure of Remediation Funds in support of the City s purchase and demolition of the Beach Motel on State Avenue. Remediation Funds specifically covered the costs for a Phase 1 ESA, asbestos survey and removal of asbestos from the building, demolition of the building and air quality monitoring during demolition. In 2014, a Brownfield Plan was approved to assist the Austin Brothers Beer Company with the costs of Phase 1 and 2 Environmental Site Assessments, development of a Due Care Plan, and remediation of on-site contamination necessary for the development of a new production brewery and bar/restaurant in an existing industrial building. The new brewery, located off Miller Street adjacent to the railroad tracks, opened in November In February 2016, Council approved a Brownfield Plan for Target Alpena Development Corporation to assist in the redevelopment of the former Alpena Power Company property in downtown Alpena along the Thunder Bay River. Remediation Funds will pay for a Phase 2 ESA, BEA, Due Care Plan and necessary environmental remediation. Demolition of the building is slated for May-June 2016 utilizing a blight elimination grant from the state and private funding. Target is currently marketing the property to potential developers. The RRF is funded from existing brownfield TIFs once all eligible expenditures have been paid. Only local tax capture is deposited into the RRF for a period of five years or the expiration of the brownfield plan, whichever occurs first. To date both the NOAA (both expired) and Lafarge TIFs, have contributed funds to the Brownfield Remediation Revolving Fund. DEPARTMENTS DESCRIPTION ACTUAL EST.

Equipment rental is the amount charged to the other City departments for the use of this equipment. Two Department of Public Works employees provide fleet vehicle maintenance. Equipment is assigned a rental rate, which in turn funds the replacement and maintenance costs. Revenues generated by the sale of outdated equipment will be placed back into the fund for future fund operations. Purchases for the City s equipment and vehicle fleet are coordinated by the Department of Public Works or Fire Department as needed.

The Building Authority financed this project through the sale of approximately $1.8-million in bonds. The Building Authority now leases the DPW facility to the City until the bonds are repaid, at which time the City of Alpena will assume direct ownership of it. Since the City s Equipment Fund rents space in the new facility for storage of the DPW construction equipment and vehicle fleet, the Equipment Fund paid approximately $120,000 per year to the Building Authority towards repayment of the bonds until , then the General Fund began to make the lease payments. The Alpena Municipal Council has also authorized that the principal amount of $207,000 in the DPW Construction Fund be retained within this fund and that the investment income only be used for building improvements and stationary building equipment.
