Morgan provided a chart showing tax rate comparisons of cities in the area and noted that Georgetown is on the left, with the lowest tax rate of comparable cities. i10R(-I TOW 14 Tax Rate Comparison liopioin,(I Pro1wrty I,ix Itat , iii�llll 2017 Adopted Rates I11 Service Levels for the Fire Department were shown next. F7:oismrml wane Service Levels — Fire Department • ESD partnership — Current funding - % of Calls • New model methodology— weighted by: — # of properties served — Assessed Valuation — Population served — # of calls New model provides additional operating contribution from ESD, which supports growth of the fire system and distributes cost share more accurately Service Levels — Fire Department • Continued growth in call volume — Hire 3 positions in October to prepare for Station 7 • Opening of two stations — One company moves from FS1 to FS6 — Hire 11 FTE in June for FS7 • Operational January 2020 • FF/EMT hiring option to train up to paramedic Morgan noted a correction in the slide. He said it was a typo and should show FS5 to FS6, instead of FS1 to FS6. He noted the importance of hiring EMTs and training them to be paramedics, prior to the opening of Fire Station 7. Morgan said on August 28 a new contract with ESD8 will be brought to the Council. He spoke on the sharing of costs and how percentages of costs are reached. He spoke on adjustments that need to be made because ESD8's portion remains steady, while the City's portion has gone up significantly. Councilmember Gonzalez asked about ESD8 and if the County provides EMS and the City provides fire protection. Morgan explained that the City provides all of it and have been doing so since October of 2015. Morgan explained the new methodology to be proposed on August 28. He said this will continue to look at the percentage of calls but will also look at the percentage of properties served, the assessed valuation and the populations served. Morgan explained that weighting all of this together will provide a much more accurate reflection. He said that ESD8 wants to make sure the City has the infrastructure and the ability to respond to the variety of calls made, therefore they need to share in the costs of the infrastructure and ability to provide all services. Gonzalez asked about mitigation with Fire Station #7, which will service these areas of ESD8. Morgan said the model currently only includes operational costs and fire services. He explained that the new model will additionally include call center costs and costs for debt service related to fire. He said these costs should be shared, and ESD8 would share in the costs of Fire Station 7. Gonzalez asked if this new model of cost sharing is included in the budget request. Morgan confirmed that it is reflected conservatively in the budget request. He explained that negotiations will continue through the end of the year. Morgan spoke on service levels in the Planning Department, including annexation services, a new Landscape Planner position and a Fire Life Safety Inspection position. Operating Budget Highlights were shown next. Morgan noted the request from Councilmember Eby and Councilmember Jonrowe to look into hiring an additional Animal Control Officer. He said it would be a $20,000 change to the budget to convert a part time position to a full time position. He explained that adding an Animal Control Officer for a period of one year is $120,000. He explained that this is a budget shift of $100,000 to change these two positions in Animal Services. Morgan said a delay in starting the new Animal Control Officer has been looked at. If the position was delayed to start in July, the vehicle could be funded through fleet and IT costs would be shared, resulting in a $13,000 change to the budget. Operating Budget Highlights • Police Division — Investigative supplies, contract increases — One School Resource Officer - SO% funded by GISD — Convert 1 part-time Animal Technician to full-time Mayor Ross said Councilmember Eby asked that the position for an Animal Control Officer be granted and said that he, too, would be in favor. Ross asked the Council if they were in favor and suggested that it could possibly be funded through the Council Contingency fund. Morgan said they could start the position earlier, with no objection from Council. He said staff will work the budget to find the additional $13,000. He said it will be noted as an amendment. Morgan said, if it is found that funding changes, they will work to start the position even earlier. Councilmember Pitts asked for clarification and if this was a part time to a full time technician position with the addition of a full time Animal Control Officer. Morgan said they would not convert the part time position to full time position, instead starting the Animal Control Officer in July of 2019. He spoke on the equipment and vehicle needed. Councilmember Gonzalez asked about using an expiring police department vehicle. Morgan explained that the Animal Control Officer needs to have a specifically equipped vehicle. Ross asked that the Animal Control Officer be hired earlier, if things are better in the budget than originally called for. Councilmember Jonrowe asked about starting this position in the spring instead because that is when a lot of animals are born and there are booms in populations. Morgan said it would change the budget adjustment total to $25,000, instead of $13,000. Jonrowe said it is important to fund this. Ross asked the Council if they had any objection to finding $25,000 in the budget. Morgan said he would do so. Councilmember Nicholson asked about the budget requests from Animal Services and if this is an immediate need. She noted that this is a huge win for Animal Services and it is a valid request. Morgan said he recommends moving forward with the ACO. Councilmember Gonzalez suggested using the Council Contingency fund instead of putting this in the budget. He said you cannot rob Peter to pay Paul. Councilmember Pitts asked how it would be funded the following year. Morgan said he recommends finding the funds in the budget because this will be a recurring expense. Morgan said he will be able to make it work and will find funding to begin the position in the spring for the additional $25,000. He explained that this will reduce the budget by $25K somewhere else. Morgan said he is confident with the direction from Council. Morgan continued with the Operating Budget Highlights Operating Budget Highlights • Parks and Recreation — Parks maintenance position — San Gabriel River maintenance contract — Landscape maintenance contract Operating Budget Highlights - Public Works — Funding for transit budget; offset by Georgetown Health Foundation grant — Neighborhood Traffic Management Morgan detailed the General Fund Analysis. He noted that the year to year comparison on expenditures saw an increase of 2.3% in overall expenditures before the EMS merge. Morgan said this is less than the census population growth of 5.4% and CPI of 2.5% Morgan showed the CIP for Electric, Water and Wastewater. He noted that the City has access to a lot of water until 2047, but does not have access to treated water.
