[15:32] planning and budgeting multi-year financial planning. I’m based in New Orleans. [15:34] multi-year financial planning. I’m based in New Orleans. But we have offices across the [15:34] I’m based in New Orleans. But we have offices across the country, including our local [15:37] But we have offices across the country, including our local offices here in the state, [15:38] country, including our local offices here in the state, Orlando and Miami.

But ultimately we [16:05] looking at day-to-day operations. But ultimately we are also the leader in [16:07] operations. But ultimately we are also the leader in providing multi-year financial [16:08] are also the leader in providing multi-year financial planning to local governments [16:09] providing multi-year financial planning to local governments across the country in the last [16:11] planning to local governments across the country in the last 10 years. We’ve got about 50 [16:13] across the country in the last 10 years. We’ve got about 50 financial plans, another 20 for [16:14] 10 years. We’ve got about 50 financial plans, another 20 for school districts across the [16:15] financial plans, another 20 for school districts across the country. So it’s a pleasure to [16:17] school districts across the country. So it’s a pleasure to be working with you all. [16:18] country. So it’s a pleasure to be working with you all. I’m joined by my colleague, [16:20] be working with you all. I’m joined by my colleague, Iowa to somebody who’s been [16:22] I’m joined by my colleague, Iowa to somebody who’s been excellent and helping to really [16:22] Iowa to somebody who’s been excellent and helping to really pull together the forecast and [16:25] excellent and helping to really pull together the forecast and the model that hopefully of [16:26] pull together the forecast and the model that hopefully of time for rain will be able to [16:26] the model that hopefully of time for rain will be able to share a little sneak peek with [16:28] time for rain will be able to share a little sneak peek with you all. But that ultimately [16:30] share a little sneak peek with you all. But that ultimately will be delivering and passing [16:33] you all. But that ultimately will be delivering and passing on to the county staff. So R [16:34] will be delivering and passing on to the county staff. So R work began. We’re start to [16:36] on to the county staff. So R work began. We’re start to contract in March this year [16:37] work began. We’re start to contract in March this year to develop a multi-year [16:39] contract in March this year to develop a multi-year financial forecast for the [16:40] to develop a multi-year financial forecast for the county. So as a part of this, [16:43] financial forecast for the county. So as a part of this, we assess the county’s [16:44] county. So as a part of this, we assess the county’s historical general fund [16:45] we assess the county’s historical general fund revenues and expenditures to [16:46] historical general fund revenues and expenditures to understand the drivers of your [16:47] revenues and expenditures to understand the drivers of your financial protection pull [16:50] understand the drivers of your financial protection pull together. The model, the [16:51] financial protection pull together. The model, the forecasts itself is really [16:52] together. The model, the forecasts itself is really focused on the below items [16:55] forecasts itself is really focused on the below items highlighted on the screen, [16:56] focused on the below items highlighted on the screen, forecasting or financial [16:57] highlighted on the screen, forecasting or financial trajectory over the next 5 [16:59] forecasting or financial trajectory over the next 5 years, analyzing some key [17:01] trajectory over the next 5 years, analyzing some key demographic economic budgetary [17:03] years, analyzing some key demographic economic budgetary trends that impact your [17:06] demographic economic budgetary trends that impact your finances, it and providing [17:06] trends that impact your finances, it and providing recommendations on some best [17:07] finances, it and providing recommendations on some best practices around financial and [17:09] recommendations on some best practices around financial and budget management and fiscal [17:11] practices around financial and budget management and fiscal policy. So as I said at the [17:13] budget management and fiscal policy. So as I said at the end, not only do we have a much [17:14] policy. So as I said at the end, not only do we have a much fuller report in the one that [17:15] end, not only do we have a much fuller report in the one that I’m going to share with you all [17:17] fuller report in the one that I’m going to share with you all this morning that we share that [17:19] I’m going to share with you all this morning that we share that really outlines how the model [17:21] this morning that we share that really outlines how the model works. All of the assumptions, [17:21] really outlines how the model works. All of the assumptions, the key drivers, things to keep [17:25] works. All of the assumptions, the key drivers, things to keep in mind and also shares. [17:25] the key drivers, things to keep in mind and also shares. We’re going to be sharing and [17:27] in mind and also shares. We’re going to be sharing and training the staff on the [17:28] We’re going to be sharing and training the staff on the actual tool, which is at Excela [17:31] training the staff on the actual tool, which is at Excela based financial model that you [17:31] actual tool, which is at Excela based financial model that you will be able to update on a [17:34] based financial model that you will be able to update on a regular basis. So then now you [17:34] will be able to update on a regular basis. So then now you are able to consistently see a [17:36] regular basis. So then now you are able to consistently see a 5 year outlook from your annual [17:39] are able to consistently see a 5 year outlook from your annual budget. [17:41] 5 year outlook from your annual budget. So this morning, all share a [17:42] budget. So this morning, all share a little bit about the forecast. [17:44] So this morning, all share a little bit about the forecast. Talk about some of the [17:45] little bit about the forecast. Talk about some of the assumptions and talk a little [17:46] Talk about some of the assumptions and talk a little bit about some of our findings [17:46] assumptions and talk a little bit about some of our findings and items to keep in mind for a [17:49] bit about some of our findings and items to keep in mind for a path forward. As you all know, [17:52] and items to keep in mind for a path forward. As you all know, procure this work, a multi-year [17:53] path forward. As you all know, procure this work, a multi-year financial forecast really [17:55] procure this work, a multi-year financial forecast really offers a diagnosis of your [17:56] financial forecast really offers a diagnosis of your finances. It’s considered a [18:00] offers a diagnosis of your finances. It’s considered a best practice by S p Fitch as [18:01] finances. It’s considered a best practice by S p Fitch as well as in the forecast that we [18:02] best practice by S p Fitch as well as in the forecast that we provide is in a dynamic easy to [18:05] well as in the forecast that we provide is in a dynamic easy to update multi-year excelled base [18:06] provide is in a dynamic easy to update multi-year excelled base model and it helps to sort of [18:09] update multi-year excelled base model and it helps to sort of reflect it what the county’s [18:09] model and it helps to sort of reflect it what the county’s directory if you maintain the [18:11] reflect it what the county’s directory if you maintain the status quo. So if you consider [18:12] directory if you maintain the status quo. So if you consider yourself taking your hands off [18:15] status quo. So if you consider yourself taking your hands off of the wheel over the next 5 [18:18] yourself taking your hands off of the wheel over the next 5 years, making no major changes. [18:20] of the wheel over the next 5 years, making no major changes. What with the financial [18:22] years, making no major changes. What with the financial position of the county look [18:24] What with the financial position of the county look like? So when we’re creating [18:25] position of the county look like? So when we’re creating this forecast, we go all the [18:25] like? So when we’re creating this forecast, we go all the way down to the line item level [18:28] this forecast, we go all the way down to the line item level of detail. We worked with [18:31] way down to the line item level of detail. We worked with county staff to understand the [18:33] of detail. We worked with county staff to understand the nuances of not only your [18:35] county staff to understand the nuances of not only your financial policies, your [18:37] nuances of not only your financial policies, your structure, your financial data, [18:38] financial policies, your structure, your financial data, and then we apply growth rates [18:40] structure, your financial data, and then we apply growth rates associated with those major [18:41] and then we apply growth rates associated with those major categories that helps to build [18:43] associated with those major categories that helps to build out the actual forecast itself. [18:45] categories that helps to build out the actual forecast itself. The forecast is built on the [18:48] out the actual forecast itself. The forecast is built on the fy 25 adopt a budget and then [18:49] The forecast is built on the fy 25 adopt a budget and then applies growth rates of those [18:51] fy 25 adopt a budget and then applies growth rates of those project of years. And of [18:52] applies growth rates of those project of years. And of course, assuming no corrective [18:53] project of years. And of course, assuming no corrective action, which we’ll talk a [18:54] course, assuming no corrective action, which we’ll talk a little bit about in the second. [18:55] action, which we’ll talk a little bit about in the second. It shows what the financial [18:56] little bit about in the second. It shows what the financial forecast of the county would [19:00] It shows what the financial forecast of the county would be. For the model we make sure [19:01] forecast of the county would be. For the model we make sure to really integrate in your [19:03] be. For the model we make sure to really integrate in your key elements. The models [19:04] to really integrate in your key elements. The models primarily focused on the [19:05] key elements. The models primarily focused on the general fund, but does have [19:07] primarily focused on the general fund, but does have the ability to consider the [19:08] general fund, but does have the ability to consider the impact of some of your other [19:11] the ability to consider the impact of some of your other major funding streams that are [19:12] impact of some of your other major funding streams that are incorporated as you all conduct [19:15] major funding streams that are incorporated as you all conduct your business. [19:16] incorporated as you all conduct your business. It skews me and incorporates [19:18] your business. It skews me and incorporates you’re as crazy Reserve policy [19:19] It skews me and incorporates you’re as crazy Reserve policy and that policy is incorporated [19:22] you’re as crazy Reserve policy and that policy is incorporated into the model. So within the [19:23] and that policy is incorporated into the model. So within the baseline itself, which I’ll [19:25] into the model. So within the baseline itself, which I’ll show you in just a couple of [19:27] baseline itself, which I’ll show you in just a couple of slides, it’s projected to have [19:29] show you in just a couple of slides, it’s projected to have a consistent 15% of total [19:30] slides, it’s projected to have a consistent 15% of total operating expenditures, which [19:34] a consistent 15% of total operating expenditures, which is about 54 days. [19:36] operating expenditures, which is about 54 days. Approximately. And then your [19:37] is about 54 days. Approximately. And then your Reserve fund Budget Budget Fund [19:37] Approximately. And then your Reserve fund Budget Budget Fund balance. Excuse me, ranges from [19:41] Reserve fund Budget Budget Fund balance. Excuse me, ranges from about 22.3. 26.7 million over [19:43] balance. Excuse me, ranges from about 22.3. 26.7 million over the course of the rejection [19:45] about 22.3. 26.7 million over the course of the rejection within the projection itself. [19:48] the course of the rejection within the projection itself. There are various options from [19:48] within the projection itself. There are various options from modeling. What differences in [19:49] There are various options from modeling. What differences in your reserve fund balance [19:52] modeling. What differences in your reserve fund balance levels. Look like so if the [19:53] your reserve fund balance levels. Look like so if the county moved to an 8 or wanted [19:55] levels. Look like so if the county moved to an 8 or wanted to go up to the 17, the to [19:57] county moved to an 8 or wanted to go up to the 17, the to balance of your ranges in your [19:58] to go up to the 17, the to balance of your ranges in your policy. There’s a mechanism to [20:00] balance of your ranges in your policy. There’s a mechanism to turn those switches on and off [20:00] policy. There’s a mechanism to turn those switches on and off to see what the fiscal impact [20:04] turn those switches on and off to see what the fiscal impact looks like over time. [20:06] to see what the fiscal impact looks like over time. But we talked a little bit [20:06] looks like over time. But we talked a little bit about the basin project itself. [20:09] But we talked a little bit about the basin project itself. So [20:12] about the basin project itself. So baseline it takes into account [20:13] So baseline it takes into account your historical data from Fy [20:15] baseline it takes into account your historical data from Fy 2019 Fy 2024. [20:17] your historical data from Fy 2019 Fy 2024. >> And then projects out to [20:21] 2019 Fy 2024. >> And then projects out to from Fy. 26 to Fy 2030. You’ll [20:22] >> And then projects out to from Fy. 26 to Fy 2030. You’ll see when we get to the baseline [20:24] from Fy. 26 to Fy 2030. You’ll see when we get to the baseline slide in just a second that [20:26] see when we get to the baseline slide in just a second that it’ll show your surplus [20:26] slide in just a second that it’ll show your surplus deficit, which is representing [20:28] it’ll show your surplus deficit, which is representing county’s total revenues last [20:30] deficit, which is representing county’s total revenues last year. Expenditures. And then [20:31] county’s total revenues last year. Expenditures. And then your county’s ending fund [20:33] year. Expenditures. And then your county’s ending fund balance as represented and this [20:36] your county’s ending fund balance as represented and this fund balance includes also [20:36] balance as represented and this fund balance includes also elements of your strict ID [20:39] fund balance includes also elements of your strict ID funds as well. Within these [20:40] elements of your strict ID funds as well. Within these figures and calculations. [20:40] funds as well. Within these figures and calculations. We also incorporate your carry [20:44] figures and calculations. We also incorporate your carry out, which is the one that [20:46] We also incorporate your carry out, which is the one that fiscal year’s revenues exceed [20:48] out, which is the one that fiscal year’s revenues exceed this school year expenditures [20:49] fiscal year’s revenues exceed this school year expenditures that availability Carryforward [20:51] this school year expenditures that availability Carryforward is also incorporated over time. [20:52] that availability Carryforward is also incorporated over time. And we’ll talk a little bit [20:53] is also incorporated over time. And we’ll talk a little bit about how that Carryforward is. [20:58] And we’ll talk a little bit about how that Carryforward is. Over. Times begins to decline [21:00] about how that Carryforward is. Over. Times begins to decline because of the sort of [21:01] Over. Times begins to decline because of the sort of structural nuances of your [21:04] because of the sort of structural nuances of your budget. So so this is the such [21:06] structural nuances of your budget. So so this is the such as counties 5, your baseline [21:07] budget. So so this is the such as counties 5, your baseline projection, the forecast, as [21:08] as counties 5, your baseline projection, the forecast, as I said, is protected from Fy. [21:12] projection, the forecast, as I said, is protected from Fy. 26 to Fy 30, the Blue Bar is [21:14] I said, is protected from Fy. 26 to Fy 30, the Blue Bar is your ending fund inclusive l [21:16] 26 to Fy 30, the Blue Bar is your ending fund inclusive l all of your restrictive [21:18] your ending fund inclusive l all of your restrictive reserves for the general fund [21:18] all of your restrictive reserves for the general fund and then the Ghraib are is your [21:20] reserves for the general fund and then the Ghraib are is your surplus deficit. So you’ll see [21:24] and then the Ghraib are is your surplus deficit. So you’ll see that and projected years. [21:27] surplus deficit. So you’ll see that and projected years. Fy 26 through Fy 28. You have [21:30] that and projected years. Fy 26 through Fy 28. You have a surplus, but still a [21:31] Fy 26 through Fy 28. You have a surplus, but still a declining surplus in the outer [21:32] a surplus, but still a declining surplus in the outer years of the forecast starting [21:35] declining surplus in the outer years of the forecast starting in Fy 29 to 30, you start to [21:36] years of the forecast starting in Fy 29 to 30, you start to see that surplus would go down [21:39] in Fy 29 to 30, you start to see that surplus would go down into a deficit. [21:41] see that surplus would go down into a deficit. Because the county chooses the [21:42] into a deficit. Because the county chooses the required fund balance every [21:44] Because the county chooses the required fund balance every year. It is possible that to [21:46] required fund balance every year. It is possible that to implement fiscal policy [21:47] year. It is possible that to implement fiscal policy decisions to avoid the year in [21:49] implement fiscal policy decisions to avoid the year in deficits. In Fy 29. And that’s [21:52] decisions to avoid the year in deficits. In Fy 29. And that’s why 29.30. [21:54] deficits. In Fy 29. And that’s why 29.30. Some of the key drivers of [21:58] why 29.30. Some of the key drivers of Model S using include I’m [22:00] Some of the key drivers of Model S using include I’m focusing on, we assume or 6% [22:03] Model S using include I’m focusing on, we assume or 6% projected growth in your ad. [22:06] focusing on, we assume or 6% projected growth in your ad. Valorem taxes, 2% in sales and [22:09] projected growth in your ad. Valorem taxes, 2% in sales and then we’re also assuming a 4% [22:11] Valorem taxes, 2% in sales and then we’re also assuming a 4% protected compound annual [22:14] then we’re also assuming a 4% protected compound annual growth rate annually for [22:14] protected compound annual growth rate annually for personal services relating to [22:16] growth rate annually for personal services relating to the Sheriff general operating [22:17] personal services relating to the Sheriff general operating and then around another 4% for [22:20] the Sheriff general operating and then around another 4% for non elected official personnel. [22:21] and then around another 4% for non elected official personnel. We assume a 9% projected growth [22:24] non elected official personnel. We assume a 9% projected growth in your retirement [22:26] We assume a 9% projected growth in your retirement contributions. And then another [22:26] in your retirement contributions. And then another 10% growth in your detention [22:29] contributions. And then another 10% growth in your detention facility. Contract. And about a [22:32] 10% growth in your detention facility. Contract. And about a 2%, 2 and a half percent growth [22:33] facility. Contract. And about a 2%, 2 and a half percent growth for your capital outlay lines. [22:34] 2%, 2 and a half percent growth for your capital outlay lines. And these are sort of [22:35] for your capital outlay lines. And these are sort of highlighted because they are [22:38] And these are sort of highlighted because they are the major components of your [22:40] highlighted because they are the major components of your budget that are really driving [22:42] the major components of your budget that are really driving your ability to have these the [22:45] budget that are really driving your ability to have these the projection over time. So a [22:45] your ability to have these the projection over time. So a little bit of just about your [22:48] projection over time. So a little bit of just about your baseline. [22:49] little bit of just about your baseline. >> You’ll see here that [22:53] baseline. >> You’ll see here that generally you have a the growth [22:55] >> You’ll see here that generally you have a the growth in your taxes is really the [22:55] generally you have a the growth in your taxes is really the driver on the revenue side of [22:58] in your taxes is really the driver on the revenue side of your growth. You’ll see that [23:01] driver on the revenue side of your growth. You’ll see that 5.5 total revenue percent [23:02] your growth. You’ll see that 5.5 total revenue percent growth versus the 4 and a half [23:04] 5.5 total revenue percent growth versus the 4 and a half percent total expenditures. [23:05] growth versus the 4 and a half percent total expenditures. And this is important to see. [23:08] percent total expenditures. And this is important to see. But it is a lot can be a little [23:10] And this is important to see. But it is a lot can be a little misleading because the [23:11] But it is a lot can be a little misleading because the carryforward amount really does [23:13] misleading because the carryforward amount really does operate a major portion of your [23:15] carryforward amount really does operate a major portion of your base and how this city how the [23:17] operate a major portion of your base and how this city how the county considers and monitors [23:20] base and how this city how the county considers and monitors their expenditures. And is able [23:21] county considers and monitors their expenditures. And is able to pay for their expenditures [23:23] their expenditures. And is able to pay for their expenditures over day-to-day basis. So any [23:26] to pay for their expenditures over day-to-day basis. So any scenario that exhaust that [23:27] over day-to-day basis. So any scenario that exhaust that carryforward puts the county [23:28] scenario that exhaust that carryforward puts the county reserves and of challenging [23:30] carryforward puts the county reserves and of challenging fiscal position within 2 to [23:33] reserves and of challenging fiscal position within 2 to 3 fiscal years. And this is [23:36] fiscal position within 2 to 3 fiscal years. And this is recognize here. So right now [23:37] 3 fiscal years. And this is recognize here. So right now we’re showing the total percent [23:39] recognize here. So right now we’re showing the total percent of your total sort of revenue [23:41] we’re showing the total percent of your total sort of revenue base to the class is sure [23:44] of your total sort of revenue base to the class is sure Commissioner Frank and open [23:45] base to the class is sure Commissioner Frank and open >> Sorry for the interruption, [23:46] Commissioner Frank and open >> Sorry for the interruption, sir, about waiting. And then I [23:48] >> Sorry for the interruption, sir, about waiting. And then I noticed all of the pages that [23:50] sir, about waiting. And then I noticed all of the pages that we have to go in and I were [23:51] noticed all of the pages that we have to go in and I were going to get so last week. [23:52] we have to go in and I were going to get so last week. I we have a big yes. I think [23:53] going to get so last week. I we have a big yes. I think you all have the full 75 pager. [23:56] I we have a big yes. I think you all have the full 75 pager. They haven’t. 25 slide. So [23:58] you all have the full 75 pager. They haven’t. 25 slide. So we’re we’re. We’re gonna keep [23:58] They haven’t. 25 slide. So we’re we’re. We’re gonna keep it short and sweet. But yes, [24:00] we’re we’re. We’re gonna keep it short and sweet. But yes, please. I love your question. [24:01] it short and sweet. But yes, please. I love your question. If I’m a couple slides back [24:04] please. I love your question. If I’m a couple slides back on the five-year baseline [24:05] If I’m a couple slides back on the five-year baseline projection. I was trying to [24:07] on the five-year baseline projection. I was trying to take out the answer as he went [24:09] projection. I was trying to take out the answer as he went on. But why do you feel like [24:13] take out the answer as he went on. But why do you feel like it looks like revenues go up, [24:16] on. But why do you feel like it looks like revenues go up, which is expected being has [24:17] it looks like revenues go up, which is expected being has house fires got more. People [24:17] which is expected being has house fires got more. People are moving here. Absolutely. [24:20] house fires got more. People are moving here. Absolutely. I can understand if you are [24:22] are moving here. Absolutely. I can understand if you are saying you see the population [24:25] I can understand if you are saying you see the population staying flat, why would the [24:27] saying you see the population staying flat, why would the why would our revenues go down? [24:30] staying flat, why would the why would our revenues go down? And 29 30, what? What brought [24:31] why would our revenues go down? And 29 30, what? What brought you to that projection? Got it. [24:34] And 29 30, what? What brought you to that projection? Got it. So it’s it’s actually not [24:35] you to that projection? Got it. So it’s it’s actually not revenues going down its your [24:35] So it’s it’s actually not revenues going down its your carryforward going down the [24:39] revenues going down its your carryforward going down the that the ability. [24:40] carryforward going down the that the ability. >> That gray bar includes not [24:43] that the ability. >> That gray bar includes not only your revenues [24:44] >> That gray bar includes not only your revenues expenditures, but also in Italy [24:45] only your revenues expenditures, but also in Italy in the annual carryforward him [24:47] expenditures, but also in Italy in the annual carryforward him out. As you have that [24:47] in the annual carryforward him out. As you have that carryforward, it starts off [24:51] out. As you have that carryforward, it starts off very strong. I think close to [24:53] carryforward, it starts off very strong. I think close to 20 give you the exact number. [24:55] very strong. I think close to 20 give you the exact number. 27. Yeah, I think it’s close [24:59] 20 give you the exact number. 27. Yeah, I think it’s close to 27 Million. 40 minutes or [25:01] 27. Yeah, I think it’s close to 27 Million. 40 minutes or skis. A 40.5 billion in Fy 25 [25:02] to 27 Million. 40 minutes or skis. A 40.5 billion in Fy 25 that provides us strong base to [25:06] skis. A 40.5 billion in Fy 25 that provides us strong base to start from over time going into [25:09] that provides us strong base to start from over time going into fy. 26 drops down to [25:10] start from over time going into fy. 26 drops down to 27 Million. Then to 19 million, [25:13] fy. 26 drops down to 27 Million. Then to 19 million, 10 to 11 2028. by [25:16] 27 Million. Then to 19 million, 10 to 11 2028. by Twenty-thirty. It’s at 1.7 [25:17] 10 to 11 2028. by Twenty-thirty. It’s at 1.7 million. So that decline in [25:18] Twenty-thirty. It’s at 1.7 million. So that decline in the availability of that [25:20] million. So that decline in the availability of that Carryforward is really what’s [25:22] the availability of that Carryforward is really what’s driving partially. It’s the [25:23] Carryforward is really what’s driving partially. It’s the extending growth of your [25:25] driving partially. It’s the extending growth of your expenditures and then the that [25:27] extending growth of your expenditures and then the that decline in the carryforward [25:28] expenditures and then the that decline in the carryforward about that’s available. Tat’s [25:30] decline in the carryforward about that’s available. Tat’s cushioning the the surplus [25:33] about that’s available. Tat’s cushioning the the surplus here. [25:33] cushioning the the surplus here. >> And why do you think that’s [25:37] here. >> And why do you think that’s going to go down? [25:38] >> And why do you think that’s going to go down? Because of the extending growth [25:40] going to go down? Because of the extending growth in here? And actually let me [25:40] Because of the extending growth in here? And actually let me Popovic’s. I think this will [25:43] in here? And actually let me Popovic’s. I think this will help. So your carryforward [25:45] Popovic’s. I think this will help. So your carryforward makes up. 22 1% of your total [25:51] help. So your carryforward makes up. 22 1% of your total revenue base in Fy 25 your [25:51] makes up. 22 1% of your total revenue base in Fy 25 your budget. You’ve been you’ve been [25:52] revenue base in Fy 25 your budget. You’ve been you’ve been balancing your budget, [25:54] budget. You’ve been you’ve been balancing your budget, particularly using that [25:55] balancing your budget, particularly using that carryforward without the [25:58] particularly using that carryforward without the carryforward. It declines your [26:01] carryforward without the carryforward. It declines your total tax faces 90%. And so [26:02] carryforward. It declines your total tax faces 90%. And so your reliance on that [26:06] total tax faces 90%. And so your reliance on that carryforward is I think a risk [26:08] your reliance on that carryforward is I think a risk as a part of how you all are [26:10] carryforward is I think a risk as a part of how you all are managing your expenditures [26:13] as a part of how you all are managing your expenditures itself are not exceeding your [26:13] managing your expenditures itself are not exceeding your are your current revenues [26:15] itself are not exceeding your are your current revenues without the carryforward are [26:18] are your current revenues without the carryforward are not able to keep pace with your [26:19] without the carryforward are not able to keep pace with your expenditures. What you’re able [26:20] not able to keep pace with your expenditures. What you’re able to keep that pace with the [26:21] expenditures. What you’re able to keep that pace with the Kerry for going forward? [26:25] to keep that pace with the Kerry for going forward? Well, that I guess I don’t [26:26] Kerry for going forward? Well, that I guess I don’t quickly grew because we have to [26:29] Well, that I guess I don’t quickly grew because we have to have a reserve budget for [26:30] quickly grew because we have to have a reserve budget for emergencies or so. We need to [26:32] have a reserve budget for emergencies or so. We need to have a large carryforward and [26:33] emergencies or so. We need to have a large carryforward and when nothing happens. Thank [26:35] have a large carryforward and when nothing happens. Thank you, Lord. [26:37] when nothing happens. Thank you, Lord. >> It has to be carried [26:38] you, Lord. >> It has to be carried forward. I know you see that [26:41] >> It has to be carried forward. I know you see that as a risk. But to me that. [26:42] forward. I know you see that as a risk. But to me that. >> That seems prudent now. [26:43] as a risk. But to me that. >> That seems prudent now. So you’re maintaining your [26:43] >> That seems prudent now. So you’re maintaining your reserve levels, which is why [26:46] So you’re maintaining your reserve levels, which is why the Blue bar. [26:49] reserve levels, which is why the Blue bar. >> In the prior slide continues [26:50] the Blue bar. >> In the prior slide continues over time. You still having a [26:53] >> In the prior slide continues over time. You still having a healthy reserve, but you’re [26:54] over time. You still having a healthy reserve, but you’re using because the carryforward [26:56] healthy reserve, but you’re using because the carryforward is used as an operating funding [26:58] using because the carryforward is used as an operating funding mechanism as you’re operating [27:00] is used as an operating funding mechanism as you’re operating expenses, grow over time. [27:01] mechanism as you’re operating expenses, grow over time. That carryforward again, if you [27:02] expenses, grow over time. That carryforward again, if you took your hands off the wheel [27:04] That carryforward again, if you took your hands off the wheel and or not changing posse of [27:05] took your hands off the wheel and or not changing posse of changing your practices on a [27:07] and or not changing posse of changing your practices on a year to year basis and are [27:08] changing your practices on a year to year basis and are letting story of the [27:09] year to year basis and are letting story of the projections do their thing. [27:11] letting story of the projections do their thing. This is actually the outlook [27:12] projections do their thing. This is actually the outlook that you would see you would [27:14] This is actually the outlook that you would see you would spend down that carry forward [27:15] that you would see you would spend down that carry forward at a faster rate than you [27:17] spend down that carry forward at a faster rate than you probably otherwise would have [27:18] at a faster rate than you probably otherwise would have as you’re making annual [27:20] probably otherwise would have as you’re making annual spending decisions. [27:23] as you’re making annual spending decisions. >> So you’re just assuming that [27:25] spending decisions. >> So you’re just assuming that we’re going to be spending more [27:26] >> So you’re just assuming that we’re going to be spending more in the growth isn’t keeping up [27:27] we’re going to be spending more in the growth isn’t keeping up with it. So then we’re going to [27:30] in the growth isn’t keeping up with it. So then we’re going to start dipping into our [27:31] with it. So then we’re going to start dipping into our carryforward. Yes. So you’re [27:32] start dipping into our carryforward. Yes. So you’re aware, assuming because based [27:33] carryforward. Yes. So you’re aware, assuming because based on how the projections worth [27:35] aware, assuming because based on how the projections worth you start with the [27:36] on how the projections worth you start with the carryforward. You include that [27:39] you start with the carryforward. You include that basin. The start. [27:41] carryforward. You include that basin. The start. >> And and the and less there’s [27:42] basin. The start. >> And and the and less there’s a surplus in that fiscal year. [27:43] >> And and the and less there’s a surplus in that fiscal year. That is what’s then being put [27:45] a surplus in that fiscal year. That is what’s then being put back into the carryforward. [27:47] That is what’s then being put back into the carryforward. >> And the following year [27:48] back into the carryforward. >> And the following year because you’re not there’s a [27:50] >> And the following year because you’re not there’s a structural imbalance between [27:50] because you’re not there’s a structural imbalance between you’re operating revenues, [27:52] structural imbalance between you’re operating revenues, you’re operating expenditures. [27:54] you’re operating revenues, you’re operating expenditures. You’re not seeing as strong of [27:55] you’re operating expenditures. You’re not seeing as strong of a surplus being able to put [27:57] You’re not seeing as strong of a surplus being able to put back into the carryforward to [27:58] a surplus being able to put back into the carryforward to make that base stronger from [28:01] back into the carryforward to make that base stronger from year to year. [28:03] make that base stronger from year to year. Commissioner Kerik Skis I’m [28:05] year to year. Commissioner Kerik Skis I’m sorry, Commissioner, I’m sorry. [28:09] Commissioner Kerik Skis I’m sorry, Commissioner, I’m sorry. Mister Davis. [28:10] sorry, Commissioner, I’m sorry. Mister Davis. >> I I figured all that out. [28:11] Mister Davis. >> I I figured all that out. It is essentially I think if [28:14] >> I I figured all that out. It is essentially I think if you look at it from me, sort [28:15] It is essentially I think if you look at it from me, sort of a common sense standpoint, [28:16] you look at it from me, sort of a common sense standpoint, we’re always told that [28:19] of a common sense standpoint, we’re always told that residential growth cost more. [28:20] we’re always told that residential growth cost more. >> Then they pay in taxes, [28:22] residential growth cost more. >> Then they pay in taxes, chair and commercial and [28:23] >> Then they pay in taxes, chair and commercial and industrial pay more in taxes [28:25] chair and commercial and industrial pay more in taxes than they take in services. [28:27] industrial pay more in taxes than they take in services. And so does this. Did you work [28:28] than they take in services. And so does this. Did you work with Metro development forecast [28:32] And so does this. Did you work with Metro development forecast in terms of what what we [28:33] with Metro development forecast in terms of what what we currently have zoned commercial [28:35] in terms of what what we currently have zoned commercial and industrial and AG, which [28:38] currently have zoned commercial and industrial and AG, which are all part of net positive, [28:39] and industrial and AG, which are all part of net positive, too. [28:39] are all part of net positive, too. >> The tax base. So we did. [28:40] too. >> The tax base. So we did. We did take into account the [28:41] >> The tax base. So we did. We did take into account the Metro forecasts projections. [28:44] We did take into account the Metro forecasts projections. So those are included. [28:45] Metro forecasts projections. So those are included. >> And the projections for the [28:47] So those are included. >> And the projections for the property tax. [28:48] >> And the projections for the property tax. >> As well as any of the other [28:49] property tax. >> As well as any of the other economically driven [28:52] >> As well as any of the other economically driven assumptions. We did use the [28:53] economically driven assumptions. We did use the Metro forecasters report as the [28:56] assumptions. We did use the Metro forecasters report as the basis of those projections. [28:58] Metro forecasters report as the basis of those projections. Okay. So we do have a chance [29:01] basis of those projections. Okay. So we do have a chance >> potentially. [29:02] Okay. So we do have a chance >> potentially. Change the south going with the [29:04] >> potentially. Change the south going with the zoning decision? Absolutely. [29:05] Change the south going with the zoning decision? Absolutely. You know that the model itself [29:07] zoning decision? Absolutely. You know that the model itself is built very flexibly so that [29:10] You know that the model itself is built very flexibly so that they any county person can go [29:11] is built very flexibly so that they any county person can go in. [29:11] they any county person can go in. >> Change the numbers, change [29:12] in. >> Change the numbers, change the percentages. So if you have [29:14] >> Change the numbers, change the percentages. So if you have updated numbers from Metro [29:15] the percentages. So if you have updated numbers from Metro forecasters as you have a [29:16] updated numbers from Metro forecasters as you have a different assumptions that [29:17] forecasters as you have a different assumptions that either come down from the state [29:18] different assumptions that either come down from the state or from policy decisions out of [29:20] either come down from the state or from policy decisions out of this group, this elected body, [29:22] or from policy decisions out of this group, this elected body, you all can make those changes [29:23] this group, this elected body, you all can make those changes and see that this could impact [29:24] you all can make those changes and see that this could impact over time. Not only in the [29:26] and see that this could impact over time. Not only in the first year of the that budget, [29:28] over time. Not only in the first year of the that budget, but also in future years. [29:29] first year of the that budget, but also in future years. Super thank you, Chair [29:32] but also in future years. Super thank you, Chair Commissioner Barry. [29:33] Super thank you, Chair Commissioner Barry. >> I have a question. This man, [29:34] Commissioner Barry. >> I have a question. This man, if the reserves amount that [29:36] >> I have a question. This man, if the reserves amount that we take every year and set [29:41] if the reserves amount that we take every year and set aside increase. Because if [29:44] we take every year and set aside increase. Because if we’re getting more money. [29:44] aside increase. Because if we’re getting more money. Okay from the Bab rejection [29:46] we’re getting more money. Okay from the Bab rejection because we actually have more [29:48] Okay from the Bab rejection because we actually have more population. We have more [29:51] because we actually have more population. We have more businesses so our income where [29:53] population. We have more businesses so our income where revenue is increasing okay. [29:57] businesses so our income where revenue is increasing okay. I I agree. The reserve should [29:59] revenue is increasing okay. I I agree. The reserve should also be increasing because if [30:02] I I agree. The reserve should also be increasing because if I take and I increase which [30:03] also be increasing because if I take and I increase which coming in and I also increased [30:05] I take and I increase which coming in and I also increased that’s good increased what I’m [30:09] coming in and I also increased that’s good increased what I’m going to set aside so that’s [30:09] that’s good increased what I’m going to set aside so that’s why I don’t understand where [30:10] going to set aside so that’s why I don’t understand where you’re getting negative numbers [30:13] why I don’t understand where you’re getting negative numbers for this. You know, surplus [30:15] you’re getting negative numbers for this. You know, surplus because if I’m getting more set [30:18] for this. You know, surplus because if I’m getting more set aside every year. [30:21] because if I’m getting more set aside every year. It has to be growing, [30:22] aside every year. It has to be growing, not shrinking. [30:22] It has to be growing, not shrinking. >> You are growing. Your [30:23] not shrinking. >> You are growing. Your revenue bases are growing, but [30:24] >> You are growing. Your revenue bases are growing, but your expenditures are going [30:27] revenue bases are growing, but your expenditures are going faster, which is I think the [30:29] your expenditures are going faster, which is I think the piece of this that is the [30:30] faster, which is I think the piece of this that is the particularly when you pull the [30:32] piece of this that is the particularly when you pull the carryforward out the growth [30:34] particularly when you pull the carryforward out the growth of your expenditures is far [30:36] carryforward out the growth of your expenditures is far outpacing your revenue base [30:39] of your expenditures is far outpacing your revenue base and that using the metro [30:40] outpacing your revenue base and that using the metro forecasting projections as to [30:41] and that using the metro forecasting projections as to what we’re going to grow as a [30:43] forecasting projections as to what we’re going to grow as a Yes, ma’am. [30:43] what we’re going to grow as a Yes, ma’am. >> We’re still going to lose. [30:47] Yes, ma’am. >> We’re still going to lose. You’re still going to have your [30:48] >> We’re still going to lose. You’re still going to have your expenditures growing faster [30:49] You’re still going to have your expenditures growing faster than your revenues. And a lot [30:50] expenditures growing faster than your revenues. And a lot of that is built on. [30:52] than your revenues. And a lot of that is built on. >> I would say assumptions an, [30:53] of that is built on. >> I would say assumptions an, you know, decisions that may [30:55] >> I would say assumptions an, you know, decisions that may not be fully in your control. [30:56] you know, decisions that may not be fully in your control. The detention facility. [30:59] not be fully in your control. The detention facility. Contractors is growing. Your [30:59] The detention facility. Contractors is growing. Your costs on your elected [31:00] Contractors is growing. Your costs on your elected officials, particularly out of [31:03] costs on your elected officials, particularly out of this year. Our growing quite [31:03] officials, particularly out of this year. Our growing quite fast and make up a large [31:04] this year. Our growing quite fast and make up a large percentage of your expenditure [31:08] fast and make up a large percentage of your expenditure base you’re also seeing [31:09] percentage of your expenditure base you’re also seeing generally the growth in [31:10] base you’re also seeing generally the growth in salaries and wages. All of that [31:13] generally the growth in salaries and wages. All of that are growing at a at a pretty [31:18] salaries and wages. All of that are growing at a at a pretty high clip in Those key drivers [31:19] are growing at a at a pretty high clip in Those key drivers right here. These are really [31:23] high clip in Those key drivers right here. These are really what’s driving. [31:23] right here. These are really what’s driving. >> The faster pace expenditure [31:25] what’s driving. >> The faster pace expenditure growth over your revenues? [31:27] >> The faster pace expenditure growth over your revenues? I think with the continuation [31:29] growth over your revenues? I think with the continuation of continuing to think about [31:31] I think with the continuation of continuing to think about and trying to have annual [31:32] of continuing to think about and trying to have annual conversations about how do you [31:34] and trying to have annual conversations about how do you balance your expenditure [31:35] conversations about how do you balance your expenditure burden. [31:35] balance your expenditure burden. >> With your available revenues [31:38] burden. >> With your available revenues or and or how do you increase [31:40] >> With your available revenues or and or how do you increase your revenue diversification? [31:42] or and or how do you increase your revenue diversification? How do you make sure that [31:43] your revenue diversification? How do you make sure that you’re maxing out on things [31:44] How do you make sure that you’re maxing out on things that will allow you to bring in [31:46] you’re maxing out on things that will allow you to bring in more revenues on an annual [31:49] that will allow you to bring in more revenues on an annual basis? This gap will not be [31:49] more revenues on an annual basis? This gap will not be there because you all be making [31:52] basis? This gap will not be there because you all be making the annual decisions to address [31:54] there because you all be making the annual decisions to address any potential surplus deficit [31:56] the annual decisions to address any potential surplus deficit in real time. The projection [31:56] any potential surplus deficit in real time. The projection itself, like I said, is the [31:59] in real time. The projection itself, like I said, is the status quo. If the if you [32:01] itself, like I said, is the status quo. If the if you continue as you are with no [32:04] status quo. If the if you continue as you are with no policy changes with no [32:05] continue as you are with no policy changes with no effective changes, assuming the [32:07] policy changes with no effective changes, assuming the growth that you’re likely to [32:08] effective changes, assuming the growth that you’re likely to see based on the Metro [32:09] growth that you’re likely to see based on the Metro forecasters projections on the [32:11] see based on the Metro forecasters projections on the revenue side and based on some [32:12] forecasters projections on the revenue side and based on some know notes on the expenditure [32:14] revenue side and based on some know notes on the expenditure side. [32:14] know notes on the expenditure side. >> Well, we’re not what I’m [32:17] side. >> Well, we’re not what I’m thinking. News. Okay. As the [32:21] >> Well, we’re not what I’m thinking. News. Okay. As the revenues grow, we also continue [32:23] thinking. News. Okay. As the revenues grow, we also continue taking out users. Yes. So the [32:25] revenues grow, we also continue taking out users. Yes. So the reserves have to grow because [32:28] taking out users. Yes. So the reserves have to grow because the percentage, the amount, you [32:29] reserves have to grow because the percentage, the amount, you know, knows the magic text on [32:32] the percentage, the amount, you know, knows the magic text on instead of 100. It may be [32:34] know, knows the magic text on instead of 100. It may be armed. 50 sure. Okay. So if [32:38] instead of 100. It may be armed. 50 sure. Okay. So if I’m raising everything. [32:40] armed. 50 sure. Okay. So if I’m raising everything. Then I still, you know, it [32:41] I’m raising everything. Then I still, you know, it amazes me. How you tell me is [32:42] Then I still, you know, it amazes me. How you tell me is going to shrink. You tell me [32:44] amazes me. How you tell me is going to shrink. You tell me the expenses are going to go [32:47] going to shrink. You tell me the expenses are going to go that fast. Yes, ma’am. [32:52] the expenses are going to go that fast. Yes, ma’am. Commissioner Davis? see if I [32:54] that fast. Yes, ma’am. Commissioner Davis? see if I can help clarify. We have been [32:56] Commissioner Davis? see if I can help clarify. We have been told over and over and over [33:00] can help clarify. We have been told over and over and over that the average. [33:01] told over and over and over that the average. >> Cost per dollar paid into [33:02] that the average. >> Cost per dollar paid into the system by residents. [33:05] >> Cost per dollar paid into the system by residents. It costs U.S. dollar 50 to [33:08] the system by residents. It costs U.S. dollar 50 to serve them. We are growing rez [33:10] It costs U.S. dollar 50 to serve them. We are growing rez too fast and residential, not [33:13] serve them. We are growing rez too fast and residential, not enough in commercial and [33:14] too fast and residential, not enough in commercial and industrial Costa. 70 to serve [33:17] enough in commercial and industrial Costa. 70 to serve every dollar that they pay n [33:19] industrial Costa. 70 to serve every dollar that they pay n it costs us $0.30 to serve. [33:22] every dollar that they pay n it costs us $0.30 to serve. Every dollar ad comes at this [33:23] it costs us $0.30 to serve. Every dollar ad comes at this has been a cliff that we’ve [33:27] Every dollar ad comes at this has been a cliff that we’ve been facing for a while by [33:27] has been a cliff that we’ve been facing for a while by right development, personal [33:30] been facing for a while by right development, personal property rights. And this is [33:31] right development, personal property rights. And this is why on all of our zoning cases, [33:35] property rights. And this is why on all of our zoning cases, we need to put more commercial [33:36] why on all of our zoning cases, we need to put more commercial and more industrial in place. [33:37] we need to put more commercial and more industrial in place. Obviously in the appropriate [33:39] and more industrial in place. Obviously in the appropriate places, not, you know, [33:41] Obviously in the appropriate places, not, you know, industrial next to a [33:43] places, not, you know, industrial next to a neighborhood. Okay. But these [33:45] industrial next to a neighborhood. Okay. But these are really critical policy [33:46] neighborhood. Okay. But these are really critical policy decisions and I am very [33:50] are really critical policy decisions and I am very thankful for the heads up. [33:52] decisions and I am very thankful for the heads up. Any more questions. I think [33:53] thankful for the heads up. Any more questions. I think some of this also clear, [33:56] Any more questions. I think some of this also clear, clarify a little bit. [33:56] some of this also clear, clarify a little bit. >> As we keep going. So we [33:57] clarify a little bit. >> As we keep going. So we talked a little bit about the [34:02] >> As we keep going. So we talked a little bit about the that really the dominance in [34:02] talked a little bit about the that really the dominance in the reliant on carry forward [34:05] that really the dominance in the reliant on carry forward and how that is playing a [34:07] the reliant on carry forward and how that is playing a material role in your ability [34:08] and how that is playing a material role in your ability to continue to replenish your [34:10] material role in your ability to continue to replenish your live reserves as you want to [34:11] to continue to replenish your live reserves as you want to based on your reserve policy, [34:14] live reserves as you want to based on your reserve policy, but also to manage your annual [34:17] based on your reserve policy, but also to manage your annual operating budget. [34:18] but also to manage your annual operating budget. This I think maybe helps to [34:19] operating budget. This I think maybe helps to clarify a little bit about [34:22] This I think maybe helps to clarify a little bit about exactly how we’re leveraging [34:23] clarify a little bit about exactly how we’re leveraging some of the different [34:24] exactly how we’re leveraging some of the different projections and particularly on [34:28] some of the different projections and particularly on the expenditure side. So 2024 [34:30] projections and particularly on the expenditure side. So 2024 increase, particularly due to [34:31] the expenditure side. So 2024 increase, particularly due to a study generally closer to [34:33] increase, particularly due to a study generally closer to 4% across the board increases [34:35] a study generally closer to 4% across the board increases retirement contributions. [34:36] 4% across the board increases retirement contributions. We know that those are going to [34:38] retirement contributions. We know that those are going to grow that county share of your [34:41] We know that those are going to grow that county share of your net pension liability. You’re [34:43] grow that county share of your net pension liability. You’re max growth by the contract and [34:45] net pension liability. You’re max growth by the contract and statue of the U.S. marshal are [34:46] max growth by the contract and statue of the U.S. marshal are also driving your cars growth, [34:48] statue of the U.S. marshal are also driving your cars growth, that detention facility [34:49] also driving your cars growth, that detention facility contract and then as well as [34:51] that detention facility contract and then as well as the capital outlay likely to [34:53] contract and then as well as the capital outlay likely to increase closer to an [34:56] the capital outlay likely to increase closer to an inflation. And then we’re also [34:57] increase closer to an inflation. And then we’re also assuming these likely growth [35:00] inflation. And then we’re also assuming these likely growth by the salaries and wages in [35:03] assuming these likely growth by the salaries and wages in your general operating for the [35:03] by the salaries and wages in your general operating for the sheriff’s office says, hey, [35:07] your general operating for the sheriff’s office says, hey, you’re also on the sales tax [35:07] sheriff’s office says, hey, you’re also on the sales tax side inspecting. I anticipate [35:10] you’re also on the sales tax side inspecting. I anticipate Inc softer inflation over the [35:12] side inspecting. I anticipate Inc softer inflation over the projection period, some of the [35:14] Inc softer inflation over the projection period, some of the economic uncertainty continues [35:17] projection period, some of the economic uncertainty continues to go about. [35:19] economic uncertainty continues to go about. >> You’ll you’ll see here we I [35:19] to go about. >> You’ll you’ll see here we I flagged this, particularly for [35:22] >> You’ll you’ll see here we I flagged this, particularly for the detention facility. It is [35:23] flagged this, particularly for the detention facility. It is your fastest growing [35:26] the detention facility. It is your fastest growing expenditure roll up by far [35:28] your fastest growing expenditure roll up by far largely due to the contracts in [35:28] expenditure roll up by far largely due to the contracts in the statutes that govern how [35:32] largely due to the contracts in the statutes that govern how those funds are spent so you’ll [35:35] the statutes that govern how those funds are spent so you’ll see from Fy 25 budget. You’re [35:37] those funds are spent so you’ll see from Fy 25 budget. You’re budgeting. 18.4 million in Fy [35:39] see from Fy 25 budget. You’re budgeting. 18.4 million in Fy 25. It’s projected to grow to [35:41] budgeting. 18.4 million in Fy 25. It’s projected to grow to almost 30 million by 2030. [35:43] 25. It’s projected to grow to almost 30 million by 2030. That is a huge growth. And [35:44] almost 30 million by 2030. That is a huge growth. And that’s of a lot of what’s [35:47] That is a huge growth. And that’s of a lot of what’s driving the the the as deficit, [35:49] that’s of a lot of what’s driving the the the as deficit, particularly in the out years. [35:51] driving the the the as deficit, particularly in the out years. Is this very rapid growth that [35:52] particularly in the out years. Is this very rapid growth that you’re seeing in your tunes [35:55] Is this very rapid growth that you’re seeing in your tunes facility contract. [35:58] you’re seeing in your tunes facility contract. So a path forward, you’re [35:59] facility contract. So a path forward, you’re managing a modest structural [36:01] So a path forward, you’re managing a modest structural surplus where your overall [36:02] managing a modest structural surplus where your overall growth and your revenues [36:04] surplus where your overall growth and your revenues slightly higher than your [36:06] growth and your revenues slightly higher than your overall growth for your [36:07] slightly higher than your overall growth for your expenditures. You have a [36:08] overall growth for your expenditures. You have a healthy fund balance. And if [36:09] expenditures. You have a healthy fund balance. And if current trends continue that [36:10] healthy fund balance. And if current trends continue that fund balance will continue to [36:13] current trends continue that fund balance will continue to increase. However, the use of [36:15] fund balance will continue to increase. However, the use of your Kerry for does obscure [36:15] increase. However, the use of your Kerry for does obscure your county’s true financial [36:18] your Kerry for does obscure your county’s true financial picture. It without the yearly [36:19] your county’s true financial picture. It without the yearly carryforward funds. The county [36:21] picture. It without the yearly carryforward funds. The county is projected to run deficits [36:24] carryforward funds. The county is projected to run deficits starting in 2029 2030, even [36:25] is projected to run deficits starting in 2029 2030, even after incorporating funds that [36:27] starting in 2029 2030, even after incorporating funds that would normally be applied from [36:28] after incorporating funds that would normally be applied from the county’s Reserve Budget [36:31] would normally be applied from the county’s Reserve Budget Fund balance. There are some [36:32] the county’s Reserve Budget Fund balance. There are some steps that we would recommend [36:34] Fund balance. There are some steps that we would recommend it thinking about your tax [36:35] steps that we would recommend it thinking about your tax revenue. If you think back to [36:38] it thinking about your tax revenue. If you think back to the [36:39] revenue. If you think back to the the pie chart where you’ve got [36:39] the the pie chart where you’ve got almost 90% when you’re [36:41] the pie chart where you’ve got almost 90% when you’re excluding the carryforward of [36:44] almost 90% when you’re excluding the carryforward of your revenues coming from [36:45] excluding the carryforward of your revenues coming from taxes, thinking about either [36:45] your revenues coming from taxes, thinking about either how to continue to build on [36:49] taxes, thinking about either how to continue to build on that base, working with Metro [36:49] how to continue to build on that base, working with Metro forecasters to understand what [36:51] that base, working with Metro forecasters to understand what that growth will take over [36:53] forecasters to understand what that growth will take over time. But also continuing to be [36:55] that growth will take over time. But also continuing to be mindful of that changing in the [36:55] time. But also continuing to be mindful of that changing in the economy and the rest, [36:57] mindful of that changing in the economy and the rest, particularly on the sales tax [36:58] economy and the rest, particularly on the sales tax side wanting to make sure that [36:59] particularly on the sales tax side wanting to make sure that you have some diversification [37:00] side wanting to make sure that you have some diversification on your revenue, particularly [37:03] you have some diversification on your revenue, particularly on your taxes, thinking about [37:06] on your revenue, particularly on your taxes, thinking about how you can decrease your [37:06] on your taxes, thinking about how you can decrease your county expenditures, [37:07] how you can decrease your county expenditures, particularly general operations [37:09] county expenditures, particularly general operations related to the sheriff’s [37:09] particularly general operations related to the sheriff’s office. If there are [37:11] related to the sheriff’s office. If there are opportunities for efficiencies, [37:12] office. If there are opportunities for efficiencies, if there are opportunities for [37:14] opportunities for efficiencies, if there are opportunities for effectiveness of coordination [37:16] if there are opportunities for effectiveness of coordination that can help to drive down or [37:18] effectiveness of coordination that can help to drive down or to plateau those costs. That’s [37:21] that can help to drive down or to plateau those costs. That’s worth exploring and then [37:23] to plateau those costs. That’s worth exploring and then relying only on operating [37:24] worth exploring and then relying only on operating revenues, expenditures in order [37:25] relying only on operating revenues, expenditures in order to decrease your alliance on [37:27] revenues, expenditures in order to decrease your alliance on the Kerry for going forward. [37:28] to decrease your alliance on the Kerry for going forward. It’s another recommendation [37:32] the Kerry for going forward. It’s another recommendation that we have thinking about [37:32] It’s another recommendation that we have thinking about implementing controls and [37:36] that we have thinking about implementing controls and policies to limit that Kerry [37:36] implementing controls and policies to limit that Kerry Ford and the sort of the [37:37] policies to limit that Kerry Ford and the sort of the appropriation of those rollover [37:40] Ford and the sort of the appropriation of those rollover funds and then we’ve talked [37:41] appropriation of those rollover funds and then we’ve talked with, I think almost all of the [37:42] funds and then we’ve talked with, I think almost all of the all over the course of our work [37:44] with, I think almost all of the all over the course of our work about the various capital [37:45] all over the course of our work about the various capital needs, the projects, the [37:46] about the various capital needs, the projects, the investments that the county [37:47] needs, the projects, the investments that the county wants to make, that residents [37:49] investments that the county wants to make, that residents are hoping to see. These are [37:51] wants to make, that residents are hoping to see. These are all things in there. We’ve [37:52] are hoping to see. These are all things in there. We’ve reviewed in your targets for [37:53] all things in there. We’ve reviewed in your targets for action as well as your general [37:55] reviewed in your targets for action as well as your general fund Cip project list thinking [37:56] action as well as your general fund Cip project list thinking about how you’re prioritizing [37:59] fund Cip project list thinking about how you’re prioritizing that work leveraging the fact [37:59] about how you’re prioritizing that work leveraging the fact that you’re able to now see [38:02] that work leveraging the fact that you’re able to now see a multi-year forecast thinking [38:03] that you’re able to now see a multi-year forecast thinking about how you which of those [38:05] a multi-year forecast thinking about how you which of those projects have the ability to [38:07] about how you which of those projects have the ability to with the investment in one [38:08] projects have the ability to with the investment in one year. Hopefully see some [38:10] with the investment in one year. Hopefully see some savings, either maintenance [38:12] year. Hopefully see some savings, either maintenance costs or other upkeep costs [38:13] savings, either maintenance costs or other upkeep costs that you’re already carrying [38:15] costs or other upkeep costs that you’re already carrying the burden for. If you are able [38:16] that you’re already carrying the burden for. If you are able to sort of capture what those [38:19] the burden for. If you are able to sort of capture what those savings are by the new [38:19] to sort of capture what those savings are by the new investment, you’re then able [38:22] savings are by the new investment, you’re then able to reinvest those costs into [38:25] investment, you’re then able to reinvest those costs into new and more projects on your [38:26] to reinvest those costs into new and more projects on your list. And that obviously [38:27] new and more projects on your list. And that obviously continuing to update that based [38:29] list. And that obviously continuing to update that based on forecasts and the key [38:32] continuing to update that based on forecasts and the key assumptions. This is not a [38:33] on forecasts and the key assumptions. This is not a production. It’s a projection. [38:34] assumptions. This is not a production. It’s a projection. So these assumptions are meant [38:35] production. It’s a projection. So these assumptions are meant to be re-evaluated. They’re [38:38] So these assumptions are meant to be re-evaluated. They’re meant to be reviewed regularly. [38:41] to be re-evaluated. They’re meant to be reviewed regularly. And I think they’re [38:41] meant to be reviewed regularly. And I think they’re appropriately meant to be [38:42] And I think they’re appropriately meant to be scrutinized to make sure that [38:44] appropriately meant to be scrutinized to make sure that the projections themselves are [38:45] scrutinized to make sure that the projections themselves are meaningful and are realistic [38:47] the projections themselves are meaningful and are realistic based on the experiences of [38:50] meaningful and are realistic based on the experiences of the county, the economy, as [38:50] based on the experiences of the county, the economy, as well as the policy decisions [38:54] the county, the economy, as well as the policy decisions made by this body some of the [38:55] well as the policy decisions made by this body some of the things that are not on the [38:56] made by this body some of the things that are not on the slide, certainly making sure [38:57] things that are not on the slide, certainly making sure that any of your available for [39:01] slide, certainly making sure that any of your available for the revenue? Our maxed out or [39:02] that any of your available for the revenue? Our maxed out or that are you’re maximizing that [39:05] the revenue? Our maxed out or that are you’re maximizing that the revenue evaluating what [39:07] that are you’re maximizing that the revenue evaluating what the costs recovery costs are. [39:09] the revenue evaluating what the costs recovery costs are. Is another good bres practice [39:10] the costs recovery costs are. Is another good bres practice that many municipalities who [39:12] Is another good bres practice that many municipalities who are considering on the revenue [39:13] that many municipalities who are considering on the revenue side making some of those [39:16] are considering on the revenue side making some of those adjustments I’m happy. This is [39:20] side making some of those adjustments I’m happy. This is I think the they’re in the [39:20] adjustments I’m happy. This is I think the they’re in the conversation about all flags. [39:21] I think the they’re in the conversation about all flags. Some of the list we have in the [39:24] conversation about all flags. Some of the list we have in the model already. [39:24] Some of the list we have in the model already. >> Incorporated in the list of [39:27] model already. >> Incorporated in the list of capital projects from your most [39:30] >> Incorporated in the list of capital projects from your most recent time targets for action. [39:31] capital projects from your most recent time targets for action. But also some of the projects [39:33] recent time targets for action. But also some of the projects that folks have highlighted [39:35] But also some of the projects that folks have highlighted no knowns around. If there was [39:37] that folks have highlighted no knowns around. If there was needs for additional disaster [39:38] no knowns around. If there was needs for additional disaster funding. If you change your [39:40] needs for additional disaster funding. If you change your fund balance reserve level, [39:42] funding. If you change your fund balance reserve level, that’s assumed in the model, [39:45] fund balance reserve level, that’s assumed in the model, there’s a lot if you change [39:46] that’s assumed in the model, there’s a lot if you change staffing numbers, those [39:47] there’s a lot if you change staffing numbers, those capabilities are already built [39:49] staffing numbers, those capabilities are already built into the model. So they all you [39:50] capabilities are already built into the model. So they all you do is turn the switch on to see [39:51] into the model. So they all you do is turn the switch on to see the fiscal impact of those [39:54] do is turn the switch on to see the fiscal impact of those items of time. So ensuring [39:57] the fiscal impact of those items of time. So ensuring alignment with near-term [39:58] items of time. So ensuring alignment with near-term finances, mother recommendation [39:59] alignment with near-term finances, mother recommendation that we have, as you all are [40:02] finances, mother recommendation that we have, as you all are continuing to evaluate what [40:03] that we have, as you all are continuing to evaluate what your needs are and how you want [40:05] continuing to evaluate what your needs are and how you want to leverage available funds. [40:07] your needs are and how you want to leverage available funds. Fear. Very important [40:08] to leverage available funds. Fear. Very important priorities. So happy to answer [40:10] Fear. Very important priorities. So happy to answer any more questions. You have. [40:12] priorities. So happy to answer any more questions. You have. I can also share do little [40:12] any more questions. You have. I can also share do little preview of the model. He would [40:14] I can also share do little preview of the model. He would like to see it. We have [40:14] preview of the model. He would like to see it. We have available to show you all as [40:19] like to see it. We have available to show you all as well. Commissioner Kerik. [40:20] available to show you all as well. Commissioner Kerik. >> The only question I have [40:22] well. Commissioner Kerik. >> The only question I have for you is this man. This is [40:27] >> The only question I have for you is this man. This is based on. Being able to [40:28] for you is this man. This is based on. Being able to assessed property taxes on all [40:31] based on. Being able to assessed property taxes on all the residents of Citrus County. [40:34] assessed property taxes on all the residents of Citrus County. Correct? Yes, ma’am. Did you [40:35] the residents of Citrus County. Correct? Yes, ma’am. Did you take into consideration with [40:37] Correct? Yes, ma’am. Did you take into consideration with the Legislature up in [40:39] take into consideration with the Legislature up in Tallahassee is discussing about [40:42] the Legislature up in Tallahassee is discussing about $500,000 Homestead Week engine [40:46] Tallahassee is discussing about $500,000 Homestead Week engine for every property. [40:47] $500,000 Homestead Week engine for every property. >> We get so the model includes [40:49] for every property. >> We get so the model includes a scenario where we effectively [40:52] >> We get so the model includes a scenario where we effectively at apply that assumption and it [40:55] a scenario where we effectively at apply that assumption and it is detrimental. It would be [40:55] at apply that assumption and it is detrimental. It would be detrimental to the county would [40:56] is detrimental. It would be detrimental to the county would be detrimental to local [40:56] detrimental to the county would be detrimental to local governments across the state. [41:01] be detrimental to local governments across the state. But yes, we have incorporated [41:02] governments across the state. But yes, we have incorporated that in the model so that you [41:03] But yes, we have incorporated that in the model so that you can see the fiscal impact of [41:05] that in the model so that you can see the fiscal impact of that that policy choice. [41:08] can see the fiscal impact of that that policy choice. Thank you. Yes, ma’am. [41:11] that that policy choice. Thank you. Yes, ma’am. >> I would like to see an [41:12] Thank you. Yes, ma’am. >> I would like to see an example of cheer them on. [41:16] >> I would like to see an example of cheer them on. Sure. [41:39] example of cheer them on. Sure. >> Well, no, but I feel it up. [41:39] Sure. >> Well, no, but I feel it up. Is there any other questions [41:41] >> Well, no, but I feel it up. Is there any other questions while we get the model? Place? [41:44] Is there any other questions while we get the model? Place? Your Davis? [41:46] while we get the model? Place? Your Davis? >> When we had our discussion [41:50] Your Davis? >> When we had our discussion prior on Zoom, I had brought up [41:51] >> When we had our discussion prior on Zoom, I had brought up the Citrus Hope Project, the [41:55] prior on Zoom, I had brought up the Citrus Hope Project, the homeless shelter and you said [41:56] the Citrus Hope Project, the homeless shelter and you said that you have run numbers [41:58] homeless shelter and you said that you have run numbers before for other clients and so [41:58] that you have run numbers before for other clients and so forth or could run those [42:02] before for other clients and so forth or could run those numbers for us. The I am struck [42:04] forth or could run those numbers for us. The I am struck by the fact that it is roughly [42:07] numbers for us. The I am struck by the fact that it is roughly $75 a day to keep. And we have [42:10] by the fact that it is roughly $75 a day to keep. And we have a basically a mandate from the [42:12] $75 a day to keep. And we have a basically a mandate from the state to arrest homeless [42:14] a basically a mandate from the state to arrest homeless people. Our own contract [42:15] state to arrest homeless people. Our own contract monitor says that people are [42:16] people. Our own contract monitor says that people are serving life sentences 3 months [42:19] monitor says that people are serving life sentences 3 months at a time they cycle in this [42:20] serving life sentences 3 months at a time they cycle in this cycle out the cycle in this [42:23] at a time they cycle in this cycle out the cycle in this cycle out. And $75 a day. [42:24] cycle out the cycle in this cycle out. And $75 a day. All of the whole properties are [42:27] cycle out. And $75 a day. All of the whole properties are $25 a day to just under $30 [42:30] All of the whole properties are $25 a day to just under $30 a day per person. So of course, [42:32] $25 a day to just under $30 a day per person. So of course, we have to approximate how many [42:34] a day per person. So of course, we have to approximate how many are in jail because they’re [42:36] we have to approximate how many are in jail because they’re homeless. But here’s that. [42:40] are in jail because they’re homeless. But here’s that. The killer number that are much [42:42] homeless. But here’s that. The killer number that are much beloved and respected recently. [42:43] The killer number that are much beloved and respected recently. Retired Florida health director [42:46] beloved and respected recently. Retired Florida health director locally Tito. Rubio said that. [42:50] Retired Florida health director locally Tito. Rubio said that. We have a line item on our [42:53] locally Tito. Rubio said that. We have a line item on our budget where we have to [42:54] We have a line item on our budget where we have to reimburse Medicaid for indigent [42:57] budget where we have to reimburse Medicaid for indigent care and it was 1.8 million [43:00] reimburse Medicaid for indigent care and it was 1.8 million dollars this year. That’s a [43:03] care and it was 1.8 million dollars this year. That’s a pretty huge number. [43:04] dollars this year. That’s a pretty huge number. So at Tampa hope, for example, [43:09] pretty huge number. So at Tampa hope, for example, they have a Tampa general box [43:10] So at Tampa hope, for example, they have a Tampa general box where the people go into the [43:12] they have a Tampa general box where the people go into the box and then they do telehealth [43:14] where the people go into the box and then they do telehealth and so all of that health care [43:15] box and then they do telehealth and so all of that health care is taken care of that these [43:17] and so all of that health care is taken care of that these homeless shelters, which keeps [43:19] is taken care of that these homeless shelters, which keeps homeless folks out of the ares [43:22] homeless shelters, which keeps homeless folks out of the ares and out of our taxpayer [43:24] homeless folks out of the ares and out of our taxpayer pocketbook. So I would be super [43:25] and out of our taxpayer pocketbook. So I would be super interested in what those [43:26] pocketbook. So I would be super interested in what those numbers are because ultimately. [43:29] interested in what those numbers are because ultimately. I believe if the numbers pan [43:32] numbers are because ultimately. I believe if the numbers pan out the way, I think they will, [43:33] I believe if the numbers pan out the way, I think they will, that we would end up saving [43:37] out the way, I think they will, that we would end up saving taxpayer dollars by giving them [43:37] that we would end up saving taxpayer dollars by giving them some state but not the full [43:39] taxpayer dollars by giving them some state but not the full savings. But it’s a half the [43:40] some state but not the full savings. But it’s a half the savings and then half of it [43:44] savings. But it’s a half the savings and then half of it goes back to the taxpayers. [43:46] savings and then half of it goes back to the taxpayers. So I’d be really interested in [43:47] goes back to the taxpayers. So I’d be really interested in those numbers chair. And so [43:47] So I’d be really interested in those numbers chair. And so the we’re actually sitting down [43:49] those numbers chair. And so the we’re actually sitting down with again. [43:50] the we’re actually sitting down with again. >> The county staff that we’ve [43:51] with again. >> The county staff that we’ve been work with have been [43:54] >> The county staff that we’ve been work with have been fantastic and [43:55] been work with have been fantastic and >> the? [43:55] fantastic and >> the? >> I think the ability for the [43:57] >> the? >> I think the ability for the model to incorporate those [43:58] >> I think the ability for the model to incorporate those assumptions, the numbers that [43:58] model to incorporate those assumptions, the numbers that you’re talking about, what the [44:01] assumptions, the numbers that you’re talking about, what the current costs are with the [44:02] you’re talking about, what the current costs are with the projected savings are and what [44:04] current costs are with the projected savings are and what the ongoing operating costs are [44:06] projected savings are and what the ongoing operating costs are very easy to be incorporated [44:07] the ongoing operating costs are very easy to be incorporated into the model so that you can [44:08] very easy to be incorporated into the model so that you can see that full fiscal impact [44:10] into the model so that you can see that full fiscal impact over time and sort of be able [44:12] see that full fiscal impact over time and sort of be able to navigate what the upfront [44:15] over time and sort of be able to navigate what the upfront costs are. Any, but also what [44:16] to navigate what the upfront costs are. Any, but also what the savings are over time. [44:18] costs are. Any, but also what the savings are over time. So with with the assumptions [44:19] the savings are over time. So with with the assumptions that certainly something that [44:20] So with with the assumptions that certainly something that can be incorporated with that [44:22] that certainly something that can be incorporated with that and I can certainly work on the [44:22] can be incorporated with that and I can certainly work on the other municipalities that have [44:25] and I can certainly work on the other municipalities that have hope shelters to find out what [44:26] other municipalities that have hope shelters to find out what they’ve. [44:27] hope shelters to find out what they’ve. >> What’s the savings they have [44:28] they’ve. >> What’s the savings they have realized, fair tax payers. [44:32] >> What’s the savings they have realized, fair tax payers. I know the mayor of Tampa [44:33] realized, fair tax payers. I know the mayor of Tampa promised a million dollars the [44:35] I know the mayor of Tampa promised a million dollars the first year and 500,000 in each [44:36] promised a million dollars the first year and 500,000 in each ensuing year and she kept it a [44:38] first year and 500,000 in each ensuing year and she kept it a million because the savings [44:40] ensuing year and she kept it a million because the savings were presumably that good in [44:43] million because the savings were presumably that good in them. The I’m a big data hound. [44:46] were presumably that good in them. The I’m a big data hound. I always try to. Numbers. [44:49] them. The I’m a big data hound. I always try to. Numbers. Don’t lie. So we look data. [44:52] I always try to. Numbers. Don’t lie. So we look data. Yeah, thank you. [45:07] Don’t lie. So we look data. Yeah, thank you. And also that the model itself [45:09] Yeah, thank you. And also that the model itself has been shared with the [45:09] And also that the model itself has been shared with the county. So you will have it. [45:12] has been shared with the county. So you will have it. It is in your possession. [45:14] county. So you will have it. It is in your possession. >> And available to see and [45:15] It is in your possession. >> And available to see and review if we’re still [45:16] >> And available to see and review if we’re still navigating some that Apple will [45:18] review if we’re still navigating some that Apple will see difficulties happy to find [45:19] navigating some that Apple will see difficulties happy to find time to connect with you all [45:20] see difficulties happy to find time to connect with you all and do another webinar to walk [45:24] time to connect with you all and do another webinar to walk you through it and to share [45:24] and do another webinar to walk you through it and to share answer any questions that you [45:27] you through it and to share answer any questions that you all have.

You know, [45:36] Mr. Howard, I would be interested in it. You know, you’ve obviously been working [45:37] interested in it. You know, you’ve obviously been working with this. One of the things [45:40] you’ve obviously been working with this. One of the things that I felt like. [45:41] with this. One of the things that I felt like. Was important is as opposed [45:46] that I felt like. Was important is as opposed to setting. Coming in and half [45:47] Was important is as opposed to setting. Coming in and half a billion dollars a year and [45:49] to setting. Coming in and half a billion dollars a year and just doing a one-year budget. [45:50] a billion dollars a year and just doing a one-year budget. It’s almost like we could [45:53] just doing a one-year budget. It’s almost like we could forecast out maybe 3 years. [45:55] It’s almost like we could forecast out maybe 3 years. Not to say it’s not going to [45:55] forecast out maybe 3 years. Not to say it’s not going to have some movement in it, but [45:56] Not to say it’s not going to have some movement in it, but you kind of have a benchmark of [45:58] have some movement in it, but you kind of have a benchmark of where you’re going [46:01] you kind of have a benchmark of where you’re going year-over-year. But I given [46:02] where you’re going year-over-year. But I given the information that they have [46:03] year-over-year. But I given the information that they have provided and taking into [46:07] the information that they have provided and taking into account. [46:09] provided and taking into account. Metro forecasts, teens, [46:13] account. Metro forecasts, teens, predictions. What? What is how [46:16] Metro forecasts, teens, predictions. What? What is how do you summarize this and as [46:18] predictions. What? What is how do you summarize this and as our CEO of our county and where [46:19] do you summarize this and as our CEO of our county and where we going. Yeah, I think, you [46:20] our CEO of our county and where we going. Yeah, I think, you know, you know, we say hope is [46:23] we going. Yeah, I think, you know, you know, we say hope is not a plan and what’s so great [46:24] know, you know, we say hope is not a plan and what’s so great about that hold early behalf. [46:25] not a plan and what’s so great about that hold early behalf. We’ve had lots of discussions [46:27] about that hold early behalf. We’ve had lots of discussions with a tool that you can leave [46:27] We’ve had lots of discussions with a tool that you can leave behind. [46:28] with a tool that you can leave behind. >> Will allow U.S. White [46:29] behind. >> Will allow U.S. White Commissioner Burke could [46:30] >> Will allow U.S. White Commissioner Burke could mention, you know, some of the [46:31] Commissioner Burke could mention, you know, some of the legislation. Whenever that [46:31] mention, you know, some of the legislation. Whenever that happens, we can look at that [46:34] legislation. Whenever that happens, we can look at that and make those assumptions and [46:35] happens, we can look at that and make those assumptions and be more forward thinking as [46:37] and make those assumptions and be more forward thinking as we’re looking to the future [46:39] be more forward thinking as we’re looking to the future and, you know, some point if [46:40] we’re looking to the future and, you know, some point if these predictions they made [46:43] and, you know, some point if these predictions they made and there are some shuns, they [46:43] these predictions they made and there are some shuns, they may become may not, but we can [46:47] and there are some shuns, they may become may not, but we can properly plan. But the more [46:47] may become may not, but we can properly plan. But the more proactive some excited about [46:49] properly plan. But the more proactive some excited about that. I’ve been involved with [46:51] proactive some excited about that. I’ve been involved with biennial budget, things like [46:53] that. I’ve been involved with biennial budget, things like that. Many governments have [46:53] biennial budget, things like that. Many governments have tried that have been [46:55] that. Many governments have tried that have been successful. Some Abbott, we’ve [46:56] tried that have been successful. Some Abbott, we’ve had lots of discussions under [46:57] successful. Some Abbott, we’ve had lots of discussions under interest and that whole Tammy, [46:59] had lots of discussions under interest and that whole Tammy, this as well. That there’s a [47:01] interest and that whole Tammy, this as well. That there’s a variety of the program based [47:02] this as well. That there’s a variety of the program based budgeting. I actually like [47:03] variety of the program based budgeting. I actually like program based. But one of the [47:04] budgeting. I actually like program based. But one of the program cost be [47:04] program based. But one of the program cost be performance-based budget. [47:06] program cost be performance-based budget. Those are all kind of models. [47:08] performance-based budget. Those are all kind of models. I would like to look at going [47:09] Those are all kind of models. I would like to look at going forward. But this does give us [47:11] I would like to look at going forward. But this does give us a better opportunity for think [47:12] forward. But this does give us a better opportunity for think so. At some point, if we want [47:13] a better opportunity for think so. At some point, if we want to look at whatever the project [47:17] so. At some point, if we want to look at whatever the project is, an animal shelter, our [47:18] to look at whatever the project is, an animal shelter, our other things, the sports call [47:18] is, an animal shelter, our other things, the sports call these different things that we [47:19] other things, the sports call these different things that we look at up here that I called [47:20] these different things that we look at up here that I called the F bombs. We actually have [47:22] look at up here that I called the F bombs. We actually have an opportunity now with those [47:24] the F bombs. We actually have an opportunity now with those kind of data sets to have a [47:25] an opportunity now with those kind of data sets to have a look at this model that we [47:26] kind of data sets to have a look at this model that we haven’t forecast more properly. [47:29] look at this model that we haven’t forecast more properly. Just going to help us to better [47:31] haven’t forecast more properly. Just going to help us to better communicate as we’re going [47:32] Just going to help us to better communicate as we’re going through a budgeting a mission [47:33] communicate as we’re going through a budgeting a mission that that’s a different way of [47:36] through a budgeting a mission that that’s a different way of doing business. We start to [47:36] that that’s a different way of doing business. We start to a multi-year budgets, but it’s [47:39] doing business. We start to a multi-year budgets, but it’s a good way to go as you [47:39] a multi-year budgets, but it’s a good way to go as you properly plan. There’s a lot of [47:42] a good way to go as you properly plan. There’s a lot of things are going to happen [47:43] properly plan. There’s a lot of things are going to happen we’re beginning to face in the [47:44] things are going to happen we’re beginning to face in the next couple years. We can’t [47:45] we’re beginning to face in the next couple years. We can’t predict that. We don’t have a [47:48] next couple years. We can’t predict that. We don’t have a the crystal ball. Look at. [47:49] predict that. We don’t have a the crystal ball. Look at. But with all this opportunity [47:50] the crystal ball. Look at. But with all this opportunity with the Metro forecast model [47:52] But with all this opportunity with the Metro forecast model with this tool, we’re getting [47:54] with the Metro forecast model with this tool, we’re getting to get a lot of tools that [47:54] with this tool, we’re getting to get a lot of tools that we’re able actually proactively [47:55] to get a lot of tools that we’re able actually proactively plan for this for this county [47:57] we’re able actually proactively plan for this for this county going forward, which is going [48:01] plan for this for this county going forward, which is going to put a son much better [48:02] going forward, which is going to put a son much better positioning for the future. [48:03] to put a son much better positioning for the future. So some excited about that [48:04] positioning for the future. So some excited about that excited about the tool that [48:06] So some excited about that excited about the tool that they’re leaving behind. We’re [48:06] excited about the tool that they’re leaving behind. We’re going to continue to burn up [48:08] they’re leaving behind. We’re going to continue to burn up their telephones, free of [48:10] going to continue to burn up their telephones, free of charge. I’m told me into this [48:10] their telephones, free of charge. I’m told me into this and to continue to do that. [48:13] charge. I’m told me into this and to continue to do that. But this is exciting [48:14] and to continue to do that. But this is exciting opportunities. A great tool to [48:17] But this is exciting opportunities. A great tool to have in our tool box. [48:20] opportunities. A great tool to have in our tool box. >> Poor ficken to the budget [48:21] have in our tool box. >> Poor ficken to the budget you’re getting ready to set our [48:25] >> Poor ficken to the budget you’re getting ready to set our new upcoming budget.

There’s a lot [48:48] it’s it’s something I’ve looked at this in this. There’s a lot of things. Keep me up at night [48:49] at this in this. There’s a lot of things. Keep me up at night and the corrections is one of [48:51] of things. Keep me up at night and the corrections is one of those. Obviously at the fund [48:55] and the corrections is one of those. Obviously at the fund that sheriffs, all these [48:56] those. Obviously at the fund that sheriffs, all these things, you have to be funded [48:56] that sheriffs, all these things, you have to be funded with local taxes and things [48:57] things, you have to be funded with local taxes and things like that. This could be a [49:00] with local taxes and things like that. This could be a different medium business [49:01] like that. This could be a different medium business ultimately when everybody looks [49:02] different medium business ultimately when everybody looks at that with his conversations, [49:04] ultimately when everybody looks at that with his conversations, go, we’re still trying now to [49:05] at that with his conversations, go, we’re still trying now to behind the scenes balance right [49:07] go, we’re still trying now to behind the scenes balance right now, working with staff knows [49:08] behind the scenes balance right now, working with staff knows where we’re looking at this [49:09] now, working with staff knows where we’re looking at this 5 million dollars additional [49:10] where we’re looking at this 5 million dollars additional for road resurfacing. Just [49:13] 5 million dollars additional for road resurfacing. Just general fund money. I think [49:14] for road resurfacing. Just general fund money. I think going forward what I call that [49:15] general fund money. I think going forward what I call that the true up 20 is what really [49:18] going forward what I call that the true up 20 is what really caused a colleague [49:18] the true up 20 is what really caused a colleague Carryforward. I probably get a [49:20] caused a colleague Carryforward. I probably get a look at that a little bit [49:22] Carryforward. I probably get a look at that a little bit closer and see. How’s that [49:22] look at that a little bit closer and see. How’s that going? I would like to have a [49:23] closer and see. How’s that going? I would like to have a little bit more reserved. [49:24] going? I would like to have a little bit more reserved. That’s kind of the stabbing. [49:27] little bit more reserved. That’s kind of the stabbing. I’ll tell you the served in. [49:30] That’s kind of the stabbing. I’ll tell you the served in. You look at my resignation [49:32] I’ll tell you the served in. You look at my resignation letter I gave in I was very [49:33] You look at my resignation letter I gave in I was very proud of 2 with 38%. reserves [49:36] letter I gave in I was very proud of 2 with 38%. reserves are which is a lot of cash for [49:37] proud of 2 with 38%. reserves are which is a lot of cash for it. But you got to balance that [49:40] are which is a lot of cash for it. But you got to balance that out. You don’t have too much. [49:40] it. But you got to balance that out. You don’t have too much. They’re either. That’s not good [49:43] out. You don’t have too much. They’re either. That’s not good either. But but I think you get [49:44] They’re either. That’s not good either. But but I think you get a look at that a little bit out [49:44] either. But but I think you get a look at that a little bit out of little more health, your [49:46] a look at that a little bit out of little more health, your fund balance. That’s me [49:48] of little more health, your fund balance. That’s me personally. And also be [49:49] fund balance. That’s me personally. And also be cautious going forward. We’re [49:51] personally. And also be cautious going forward. We’re looking at this but be very [49:53] cautious going forward. We’re looking at this but be very close to these assumptions and [49:55] looking at this but be very close to these assumptions and hopefully they’re not accurate. [49:55] close to these assumptions and hopefully they’re not accurate. This would be, you know, over [49:57] hopefully they’re not accurate. This would be, you know, over the accurate. But you got to be [49:58] This would be, you know, over the accurate. But you got to be proactively plan. Somebody be [50:00] the accurate. But you got to be proactively plan. Somebody be setting up here in this seat. [50:03] proactively plan. Somebody be setting up here in this seat. Most likely it may not some [50:05] setting up here in this seat. Most likely it may not some abs, but we want to put this in [50:07] Most likely it may not some abs, but we want to put this in a better position in 2029, [50:09] abs, but we want to put this in a better position in 2029, 2030, and be preparing for [50:09] a better position in 2029, 2030, and be preparing for that. I’d love to continue to [50:13] 2030, and be preparing for that. I’d love to continue to put more in these reserves [50:14] that. I’d love to continue to put more in these reserves potentially. Also look at this [50:16] put more in these reserves potentially. Also look at this truck. He may be a little bit [50:17] potentially. Also look at this truck. He may be a little bit differently, but I don’t I [50:17] truck. He may be a little bit differently, but I don’t I don’t have what these policies [50:19] differently, but I don’t I don’t have what these policies will look at right now. I’m [50:21] don’t have what these policies will look at right now. I’m still trying to work right now [50:23] will look at right now. I’m still trying to work right now to get us to balancing and be [50:24] still trying to work right now to get us to balancing and be able to work with the reserve. [50:25] to get us to balancing and be able to work with the reserve. And we’re getting very close, I [50:26] able to work with the reserve. And we’re getting very close, I think, to be able to come back [50:27] And we’re getting very close, I think, to be able to come back to the board with, I think some [50:30] think, to be able to come back to the board with, I think some positive news on that. But it [50:31] to the board with, I think some positive news on that. But it is cut me coming near about [50:34] positive news on that. But it is cut me coming near about 30 some months into this. [50:35] is cut me coming near about 30 some months into this. I’m always here a couple words [50:39] 30 some months into this. I’m always here a couple words here. Duke money and then I was [50:39] I’m always here a couple words here. Duke money and then I was here like this truth, you know, [50:40] here. Duke money and then I was here like this truth, you know, the true of money. So those are [50:41] here like this truth, you know, the true of money. So those are things that were we’re [50:41] the true of money. So those are things that were we’re dependent on doing different [50:43] things that were we’re dependent on doing different things with so it’s got to be [50:45] dependent on doing different things with so it’s got to be careful, cautious and make sure [50:46] things with so it’s got to be careful, cautious and make sure those are, you know, one time [50:50] careful, cautious and make sure those are, you know, one time expenses, not reoccurring [50:52] those are, you know, one time expenses, not reoccurring expenses. I know Commissioner [50:53] expenses, not reoccurring expenses. I know Commissioner Card talks a lot about that and [50:55] expenses. I know Commissioner Card talks a lot about that and I agree 100% of them, you know, [50:56] Card talks a lot about that and I agree 100% of them, you know, the budgeting want to make sure [50:56] I agree 100% of them, you know, the budgeting want to make sure we’re doing that as well that [50:58] the budgeting want to make sure we’re doing that as well that we’re not. We’re putting those [51:00] we’re doing that as well that we’re not. We’re putting those separately. So this but just [51:01] we’re not. We’re putting those separately. So this but just don’t continue to grow at those [51:02] separately. So this but just don’t continue to grow at those levels that are kind of [51:03] don’t continue to grow at those levels that are kind of starting a bigger budget. [51:04] levels that are kind of starting a bigger budget. We want to keep those [51:06] starting a bigger budget. We want to keep those separated. So they are one-time [51:08] We want to keep those separated. So they are one-time expenditures. So what a [51:10] separated. So they are one-time expenditures. So what a compounding these budgets going [51:11] expenditures. So what a compounding these budgets going forward. There’s a variety [51:11] compounding these budgets going forward. There’s a variety things. I love to have more [51:13] forward. There’s a variety things. I love to have more discussions with. You may be [51:14] things. I love to have more discussions with. You may be in, you know, going into [51:15] discussions with. You may be in, you know, going into January, our strategic plan [51:16] in, you know, going into January, our strategic plan retreat the Sea, which model we [51:19] January, our strategic plan retreat the Sea, which model we work at. And then I’d love to [51:19] retreat the Sea, which model we work at. And then I’d love to have them continue with this a [51:22] work at. And then I’d love to have them continue with this a little bit further along with [51:24] have them continue with this a little bit further along with some of these other budgeting [51:25] little bit further along with some of these other budgeting techniques actually work across [51:25] some of these other budgeting techniques actually work across the country, which ones are [51:27] techniques actually work across the country, which ones are working, which ones are not. [51:29] the country, which ones are working, which ones are not. I’ve done a variety of mud and [51:29] working, which ones are not. I’ve done a variety of mud and everything from 0 base [51:31] I’ve done a variety of mud and everything from 0 base budgeting, which quite honestly [51:33] everything from 0 base budgeting, which quite honestly you never started 0 yet. [51:34] budgeting, which quite honestly you never started 0 yet. As a county of expenses [51:36] you never started 0 yet. As a county of expenses expenses, we can’t get rid of [51:37] As a county of expenses expenses, we can’t get rid of but program based budgeting, [51:39] expenses, we can’t get rid of but program based budgeting, performance-based budgeting, [51:41] but program based budgeting, performance-based budgeting, not what the outputs work, but [51:42] performance-based budgeting, not what the outputs work, but what was the outcome as well as [51:44] not what the outputs work, but what was the outcome as well as the investment was returned, [51:45] what was the outcome as well as the investment was returned, investment for the dollars that [51:47] the investment was returned, investment for the dollars that you spent so those are all [51:48] investment for the dollars that you spent so those are all conversations are going to have [51:49] you spent so those are all conversations are going to have a probably gonna have a lot [51:49] conversations are going to have a probably gonna have a lot sooner based on what comes out [51:53] a probably gonna have a lot sooner based on what comes out of Tallahassee. Soon. [51:55] sooner based on what comes out of Tallahassee. Soon. I went around the circle with [51:57] of Tallahassee. Soon. I went around the circle with him. Thanks a little too. [52:01] I went around the circle with him. Thanks a little too. 2 too soon to make policy [52:01] him. Thanks a little too. 2 too soon to make policy decisions. This point just [52:02] 2 too soon to make policy decisions. This point just coming out of this with this [52:03] decisions. This point just coming out of this with this data. Plus, trying to get your [52:05] coming out of this with this data. Plus, trying to get your input today. Welcome to [52:06] data. Plus, trying to get your input today. Welcome to terminal. We bring forward. [52:07] input today. Welcome to terminal. We bring forward. We can work close with our [52:10] terminal. We bring forward. We can work close with our consultants staff too. See what [52:10] We can work close with our consultants staff too. See what are some some things that we [52:12] consultants staff too. See what are some some things that we could actually come forward. [52:14] are some some things that we could actually come forward. Some policy improvements that [52:15] could actually come forward. Some policy improvements that would be Moammar forward [52:16] Some policy improvements that would be Moammar forward thinking to continue to take us [52:18] would be Moammar forward thinking to continue to take us into this new modeling that we [52:21] thinking to continue to take us into this new modeling that we have for the future. [52:23] into this new modeling that we have for the future. >> I guess my biggest concern [52:27] have for the future. >> I guess my biggest concern is the citizens. [52:27] >> I guess my biggest concern is the citizens. >> Have spoken very loud, very [52:31] is the citizens. >> Have spoken very loud, very clearly that road resurfacing [52:33] >> Have spoken very loud, very clearly that road resurfacing is at the top of their [52:35] clearly that road resurfacing is at the top of their priorities. And we’re [52:37] is at the top of their priorities. And we’re struggling to come up with the [52:38] priorities. And we’re struggling to come up with the additional funds to kind of [52:40] struggling to come up with the additional funds to kind of make it whole for the same [52:40] additional funds to kind of make it whole for the same amount of money that we spent [52:42] make it whole for the same amount of money that we spent this year to spend next year [52:47] amount of money that we spent this year to spend next year and if I’m interpreting what [52:48] this year to spend next year and if I’m interpreting what she’s saying correctly on the [52:50] and if I’m interpreting what she’s saying correctly on the cash carry forward. That’s kind [52:50] she’s saying correctly on the cash carry forward. That’s kind of how we’ve been balancing [52:54] cash carry forward. That’s kind of how we’ve been balancing that out and we’re we’re [52:54] of how we’ve been balancing that out and we’re we’re cutting into that. We’ve used [52:58] that out and we’re we’re cutting into that. We’ve used that up and [52:59] cutting into that. We’ve used that up and I asked what the number was [53:01] that up and I asked what the number was in new growth. Just dollars for [53:04] I asked what the number was in new growth. Just dollars for new growth and it was 3.2 [53:06] in new growth. Just dollars for new growth and it was 3.2 million dollars right? So that [53:09] new growth and it was 3.2 million dollars right? So that took. Half a billion dollar [53:13] million dollars right? So that took. Half a billion dollar worth of investment. Just to [53:14] took. Half a billion dollar worth of investment. Just to get 3.2 million dollars in tax [53:17] worth of investment. Just to get 3.2 million dollars in tax revenue. [53:19] get 3.2 million dollars in tax revenue. When you think about like how [53:20] revenue. When you think about like how many houses you have to have [53:24] When you think about like how many houses you have to have for that versus maybe an [53:25] many houses you have to have for that versus maybe an industrial park and our [53:26] for that versus maybe an industrial park and our commercial. And then you think [53:28] industrial park and our commercial. And then you think of the intrinsic values of what [53:30] commercial. And then you think of the intrinsic values of what that puts back into your [53:31] of the intrinsic values of what that puts back into your community for creating higher [53:35] that puts back into your community for creating higher paying jobs in more wages [53:37] community for creating higher paying jobs in more wages so for me, I’m looking at it. [53:37] paying jobs in more wages so for me, I’m looking at it. I really do believe that we [53:40] so for me, I’m looking at it. I really do believe that we have to really kind of as board [53:41] I really do believe that we have to really kind of as board policy start to focus on some. [53:46] have to really kind of as board policy start to focus on some. Revenue diversification from [53:48] policy start to focus on some. Revenue diversification from now. What are we? What are we [53:52] Revenue diversification from now. What are we? What are we trying to attract into our [53:52] now. What are we? What are we trying to attract into our community thinking only about a [53:53] trying to attract into our community thinking only about a half percent. You’re this [53:53] community thinking only about a half percent. You’re this industrial center that you’re [53:56] half percent. You’re this industrial center that you’re challenging. Pardon. [53:56] industrial center that you’re challenging. Pardon. >> Exemptions and all those [53:58] challenging. Pardon. >> Exemptions and all those things are very difficult. [53:59] >> Exemptions and all those things are very difficult. And then you have all these [54:00] things are very difficult. And then you have all these cars drivers. I went back and [54:00] And then you have all these cars drivers. I went back and looked over the last decade at [54:03] cars drivers. I went back and looked over the last decade at one time. You’re only put [54:04] looked over the last decade at one time. You’re only put 2 million dollars a year for [54:07] one time. You’re only put 2 million dollars a year for road resurfacing Patel. You’ve [54:08] 2 million dollars a year for road resurfacing Patel. You’ve got, you know, 2000 miles [54:09] road resurfacing Patel. You’ve got, you know, 2000 miles through this, a lot of roots [54:13] got, you know, 2000 miles through this, a lot of roots so we definitely have an issue [54:14] through this, a lot of roots so we definitely have an issue with all those things. And of [54:16] so we definitely have an issue with all those things. And of course, you’re competing every [54:16] with all those things. And of course, you’re competing every year for expenses, utilities [54:20] course, you’re competing every year for expenses, utilities have doubled costs of health [54:22] year for expenses, utilities have doubled costs of health care is to all these. [54:22] have doubled costs of health care is to all these. Everything’s is going up. [54:23] care is to all these. Everything’s is going up. Property liability insurance, [54:25] Everything’s is going up. Property liability insurance, all those things. So this very [54:29] Property liability insurance, all those things. So this very difficult yes, with the issues [54:29] all those things. So this very difficult yes, with the issues that are facing here, some of [54:31] difficult yes, with the issues that are facing here, some of the challenges. But with [54:32] that are facing here, some of the challenges. But with challenges as opportunities. [54:35] the challenges. But with challenges as opportunities. I think we have to think [54:37] challenges as opportunities. I think we have to think differently and you have to [54:37] I think we have to think differently and you have to kind of look at the Mir with [54:39] differently and you have to kind of look at the Mir with the Staten saying he’s already [54:41] kind of look at the Mir with the Staten saying he’s already either just look at a jury, [54:44] the Staten saying he’s already either just look at a jury, do something with it. And [54:45] either just look at a jury, do something with it. And proactively try to take steps [54:46] do something with it. And proactively try to take steps to execute the future. And she [54:48] proactively try to take steps to execute the future. And she was struck. She can go on so [54:49] to execute the future. And she was struck. She can go on so I think this is all good. [54:51] was struck. She can go on so I think this is all good. Good conversation at good [54:53] I think this is all good. Good conversation at good information. Moving forward. [54:54] Good conversation at good information. Moving forward. But like you said, you have [54:56] information. Moving forward. But like you said, you have to defer to diversify the [54:58] But like you said, you have to defer to diversify the economy, which is difficult. [54:59] to defer to diversify the economy, which is difficult. We just came from a town hall [55:03] economy, which is difficult. We just came from a town hall meeting and Floral city. [55:03] We just came from a town hall meeting and Floral city. So you’re balancing that out of [55:04] meeting and Floral city. So you’re balancing that out of time to talk to people have a [55:06] So you’re balancing that out of time to talk to people have a little bit of fun with them [55:08] time to talk to people have a little bit of fun with them and say you like those Texas [55:10] little bit of fun with them and say you like those Texas Roadhouse and they all say yes [55:12] and say you like those Texas Roadhouse and they all say yes and a lot of times I asked a [55:12] Roadhouse and they all say yes and a lot of times I asked a lie-in some of the guys you [55:14] and a lot of times I asked a lie-in some of the guys you like Hobby Lobby and they say, [55:15] lie-in some of the guys you like Hobby Lobby and they say, yes, I like that about 5 guys. [55:18] like Hobby Lobby and they say, yes, I like that about 5 guys. The burger there. Yes. So I say [55:20] yes, I like that about 5 guys. The burger there. Yes. So I say what we call that we call that [55:22] The burger there. Yes. So I say what we call that we call that groove. And then I got another [55:23] what we call that we call that groove. And then I got another e-mail from another citizen us [55:25] groove. And then I got another e-mail from another citizen us as I’m concerned about my [55:26] e-mail from another citizen us as I’m concerned about my medical doctor had over 30 [55:28] as I’m concerned about my medical doctor had over 30 years and they’re leaving well, [55:30] medical doctor had over 30 years and they’re leaving well, how do we, you know, employee [55:30] years and they’re leaving well, how do we, you know, employee other doctors in this [55:32] how do we, you know, employee other doctors in this community, things like that. [55:33] other doctors in this community, things like that. He’s got the quality of life [55:34] community, things like that. He’s got the quality of life and issues and things like [55:35] He’s got the quality of life and issues and things like that. And then a seat on the [55:38] and issues and things like that. And then a seat on the industrial side. You have to [55:38] that. And then a seat on the industrial side. You have to have competitive advantage to [55:42] industrial side. You have to have competitive advantage to bring industry to this [55:43] have competitive advantage to bring industry to this community. So they’re looking [55:43] bring industry to this community. So they’re looking for a lot of things. So it’s a [55:46] community. So they’re looking for a lot of things. So it’s a balancing act and this is not [55:48] for a lot of things. So it’s a balancing act and this is not you need unique to this [55:49] balancing act and this is not you need unique to this government. They’re facing [55:50] you need unique to this government. They’re facing these challenges across the [55:51] government. They’re facing these challenges across the state. I can tell you that my [55:55] these challenges across the state. I can tell you that my colleagues so and you say, I [55:55] state. I can tell you that my colleagues so and you say, I think the light at the end of [55:57] colleagues so and you say, I think the light at the end of tunnel continues to be bright. [55:57] think the light at the end of tunnel continues to be bright. But we just got to remain [56:01] tunnel continues to be bright. But we just got to remain focused and diligent and, you [56:01] But we just got to remain focused and diligent and, you know, take this and use these [56:04] focused and diligent and, you know, take this and use these tools that have proactively to [56:04] know, take this and use these tools that have proactively to the community and community [56:06] tools that have proactively to the community and community communicate that out to the [56:10] the community and community communicate that out to the public in everything costs [56:11] communicate that out to the public in everything costs money. I wish it was didn’t [56:12] public in everything costs money. I wish it was didn’t cost money, which to double. [56:14] money. I wish it was didn’t cost money, which to double. But based on your analysis [56:15] cost money, which to double. But based on your analysis here, you continue to see a lot [56:19] But based on your analysis here, you continue to see a lot of things need to to be taken [56:19] here, you continue to see a lot of things need to to be taken care of, correct. And things [56:22] of things need to to be taken care of, correct. And things like that. And that’s only a [56:22] care of, correct. And things like that. And that’s only a little bit of a bite at Apple [56:23] like that. And that’s only a little bit of a bite at Apple that we can actually [56:25] little bit of a bite at Apple that we can actually proactively do so I’m excited [56:27] that we can actually proactively do so I’m excited about going forward working [56:29] proactively do so I’m excited about going forward working with this board for policy [56:30] about going forward working with this board for policy improvements and to continue to [56:32] with this board for policy improvements and to continue to communicate that with the [56:33] improvements and to continue to communicate that with the public. Some of the needs that [56:35] communicate that with the public. Some of the needs that we have. But we’re making [56:37] public. Some of the needs that we have. But we’re making progress. But there’s going to [56:37] we have. But we’re making progress. But there’s going to cost. So she thought that it is [56:38] progress. But there’s going to cost. So she thought that it is a look at our numbers. I think [56:43] cost. So she thought that it is a look at our numbers. I think 2 years, almost 300% increasing [56:44] a look at our numbers. I think 2 years, almost 300% increasing to s*** women on a new expenses [56:45] 2 years, almost 300% increasing to s*** women on a new expenses and things like that. All these [56:47] to s*** women on a new expenses and things like that. All these things are the team to go [56:48] and things like that. All these things are the team to go messing anything going down. [56:51] things are the team to go messing anything going down. I’d also commissioner Kerik. [56:58] messing anything going down. I’d also commissioner Kerik. Administrator. I have a [56:59] I’d also commissioner Kerik. Administrator. I have a question. [56:59] Administrator. I have a question. >> Having been to the meetings [57:00] question. >> Having been to the meetings last weekend with the [57:04] >> Having been to the meetings last weekend with the legislators and there they’re [57:07] last weekend with the legislators and there they’re talking property taxes are [57:08] legislators and there they’re talking property taxes are going to be going down for all [57:11] talking property taxes are going to be going down for all the citizens in the state. [57:13] going to be going down for all the citizens in the state. With that may be going away [57:15] the citizens in the state. With that may be going away completely. And then coming up [57:18] With that may be going away completely. And then coming up with a different way to to get [57:21] completely. And then coming up with a different way to to get money for the counties. Can you [57:24] with a different way to to get money for the counties. Can you at this point? Come up with. [57:28] money for the counties. Can you at this point? Come up with. A number. Did we could see [57:31] at this point? Come up with. A number. Did we could see physically? [57:33] A number. Did we could see physically? We if they were to take in [57:34] physically? We if they were to take in everything was everybody was at [57:38] We if they were to take in everything was everybody was at 500,000 or up with the only [57:40] everything was everybody was at 500,000 or up with the only property taxpayers. In other [57:40] 500,000 or up with the only property taxpayers. In other words, that’s the numbers that [57:41] property taxpayers. In other words, that’s the numbers that were thrown at me at the [57:44] words, that’s the numbers that were thrown at me at the meetings. I went to. They’re [57:45] were thrown at me at the meetings. I went to. They’re considering anything. $500,000 [57:47] meetings. I went to. They’re considering anything. $500,000 property value lower. They 0. [57:51] considering anything. $500,000 property value lower. They 0. That nominates a lot of things [57:53] property value lower. They 0. That nominates a lot of things in our county. So I’m looking. [57:58] That nominates a lot of things in our county. So I’m looking. Forward and I’m saying, OK, [57:59] in our county. So I’m looking. Forward and I’m saying, OK, what is the possibility when [58:00] Forward and I’m saying, OK, what is the possibility when they pass this next year? [58:03] what is the possibility when they pass this next year? How much money are we actually [58:03] they pass this next year? How much money are we actually going to have to work with? [58:06] How much money are we actually going to have to work with? You know, that’s a forecast and [58:07] going to have to work with? You know, that’s a forecast and I’d like to see how much will [58:11] You know, that’s a forecast and I’d like to see how much will we have? I don’t going to take [58:12] I’d like to see how much will we have? I don’t going to take time to do it. But could you [58:16] we have? I don’t going to take time to do it. But could you possibly do that? We will do [58:16] time to do it. But could you possibly do that? We will do our very best, OK? Thank you. [58:20] possibly do that? We will do our very best, OK? Thank you. >> I think that’s a discussion. [58:21] our very best, OK? Thank you. >> I think that’s a discussion. I don’t think that I was in [58:22] >> I think that’s a discussion. I don’t think that I was in Tallahassee couple weeks ago [58:24] I don’t think that I was in Tallahassee couple weeks ago and I’m not gonna name names, [58:26] Tallahassee couple weeks ago and I’m not gonna name names, but somebody was in there with [58:28] and I’m not gonna name names, but somebody was in there with a group of U.S. County managers [58:28] but somebody was in there with a group of U.S. County managers and they said they’ve never [58:32] a group of U.S. County managers and they said they’ve never seen a time in Florida has now [58:33] and they said they’ve never seen a time in Florida has now where we have folks trying to [58:35] seen a time in Florida has now where we have folks trying to make decisions that have no [58:37] where we have folks trying to make decisions that have no boots on the ground and local [58:39] make decisions that have no boots on the ground and local government because what we do [58:39] boots on the ground and local government because what we do with our corrections, I mean, [58:43] government because what we do with our corrections, I mean, all those folks, what do we [58:43] with our corrections, I mean, all those folks, what do we know?

All the roads you want to do [58:49] enforcement. No public works. All the roads you want to do actual we’re balancing know [58:51] All the roads you want to do actual we’re balancing know that’s general fund money that [58:52] actual we’re balancing know that’s general fund money that we’re doing road resurfacing [58:54] that’s general fund money that we’re doing road resurfacing with the news. 5 Million.

Some hopeful. I’m hopeful [59:08] and that that’s that’s not good. Some hopeful. I’m hopeful that the better mines will come [59:11] good. Some hopeful. I’m hopeful that the better mines will come together in the our friends in [59:12] that the better mines will come together in the our friends in Tallahassee will rethink some [59:14] together in the our friends in Tallahassee will rethink some of these these decision points. [59:15] Tallahassee will rethink some of these these decision points. And then diversify because you [59:16] of these these decision points. And then diversify because you still got to pay the bills. [59:18] And then diversify because you still got to pay the bills. We’ve got to pay for all these [59:21] still got to pay the bills. We’ve got to pay for all these services and the very public.

I mean, is taking your take on local control away, which is [59:30] I mean, is taking your take on local control away, which is bad. This is job stressful [59:33] local control away, which is bad. This is job stressful enough are ready to to all the [59:34] bad. This is job stressful enough are ready to to all the stuff that we’re doing now [59:35] enough are ready to to all the stuff that we’re doing now without somebody you don’t have [59:39] stuff that we’re doing now without somebody you don’t have any funds to do, do this works? [59:40] without somebody you don’t have any funds to do, do this works? I don’t. I don’t think it’s [59:40] any funds to do, do this works? I don’t. I don’t think it’s gonna work out real good as it [59:42] I don’t. I don’t think it’s gonna work out real good as it could be a good good ending. [59:44] gonna work out real good as it could be a good good ending. I think with that. So hopefully [59:47] could be a good good ending. I think with that. So hopefully better folks will think through [59:47] I think with that. So hopefully better folks will think through that a little bit and words [59:50] better folks will think through that a little bit and words that come from. And if you look [59:51] that a little bit and words that come from. And if you look at that, you look at that that [59:54] that come from. And if you look at that, you look at that that we’re not based totally on [59:55] at that, you look at that that we’re not based totally on property taxes. What you’re [59:56] we’re not based totally on property taxes. What you’re looking at that the general [59:57] property taxes. What you’re looking at that the general fund money.

But her expenses over [1:00:02] his buddy dollars in new revenues. But her expenses over 13 Million. Meantime, having to [1:00:04] revenues. But her expenses over 13 Million. Meantime, having to balance all that out and you [1:00:05] 13 Million. Meantime, having to balance all that out and you have 30,000 more population [1:00:08] balance all that out and you have 30,000 more population than you had many years ago. [1:00:10] have 30,000 more population than you had many years ago. You have less employees today [1:00:12] than you had many years ago. You have less employees today and you had back in. 0, 708. [1:00:13] You have less employees today and you had back in. 0, 708. So in fact, you’re actually [1:00:16] and you had back in. 0, 708. So in fact, you’re actually doing this with less. But, you [1:00:17] So in fact, you’re actually doing this with less. But, you know, the services are going [1:00:17] doing this with less. But, you know, the services are going continue to go up. The demands [1:00:19] know, the services are going continue to go up. The demands are going to go up. All those [1:00:21] continue to go up. The demands are going to go up.

Some hopeful that bill they’ll [1:00:41] expensive to do all this work. Some hopeful that bill they’ll consider our thoughts into [1:00:43] Some hopeful that bill they’ll consider our thoughts into this. We have real meaningful [1:00:44] consider our thoughts into this. We have real meaningful dialogue and we don’t do what a [1:00:46] this. We have real meaningful dialogue and we don’t do what a lot of governments have done [1:00:47] dialogue and we don’t do what a lot of governments have done and other places around the [1:00:50] lot of governments have done and other places around the country says attack shift and [1:00:51] and other places around the country says attack shift and that’s something that I hope [1:00:54] country says attack shift and that’s something that I hope doesn’t happen. So. [1:00:56] that’s something that I hope doesn’t happen. So. >> I think they’ve figured out [1:01:00] doesn’t happen. So. >> I think they’ve figured out putting I public hearing to [1:01:00] >> I think they’ve figured out putting I public hearing to my colleague, I was in the [1:01:01] putting I public hearing to my colleague, I was in the other room.

Yeah. So it’s not. Yeah. He said that he able to get [1:02:47] Yeah. So it’s not. Yeah. He said that he able to get this. The county hasn’t. [1:02:50] He said that he able to get this. The county hasn’t. Yes, this is yours. [1:02:52] this. The county hasn’t. Yes, this is yours. >> But if you focus in on that [1:02:54] Yes, this is yours. >> But if you focus in on that top bar, so all turn on a [1:02:55] >> But if you focus in on that top bar, so all turn on a couple things. But if you focus [1:02:58] top bar, so all turn on a couple things. But if you focus on the very top graphic, the [1:02:59] couple things. But if you focus on the very top graphic, the top Iowa, you turn on animal [1:03:03] on the very top graphic, the top Iowa, you turn on animal Services building. [1:03:05] top Iowa, you turn on animal Services building. You see the fiscal impact of [1:03:07] Services building. You see the fiscal impact of funding that project and then [1:03:09] You see the fiscal impact of funding that project and then if you scroll down and turn on [1:03:11] funding that project and then if you scroll down and turn on while keeping on the animal [1:03:13] if you scroll down and turn on while keeping on the animal services. It’s alright because [1:03:15] while keeping on the animal services. It’s alright because we can’t see anything anything. [1:03:17] services. It’s alright because we can’t see anything anything. So it’s it’s a yeah, it is. [1:03:18] we can’t see anything anything. So it’s it’s a yeah, it is. It is a dynamic. Like I said, [1:03:20] So it’s it’s a yeah, it is. It is a dynamic. Like I said, it’s a dynamic tool where [1:03:20] It is a dynamic. Like I said, it’s a dynamic tool where >> you turn. The switch is on. [1:03:22] it’s a dynamic tool where >> you turn. The switch is on. You see the fiscal impact over [1:03:24] >> you turn. The switch is on. You see the fiscal impact over time and the county has the [1:03:26] You see the fiscal impact over time and the county has the ability to easily drop an [1:03:27] time and the county has the ability to easily drop an additional projects. So there’s [1:03:30] ability to easily drop an additional projects. So there’s probably 150 different lines of [1:03:32] additional projects. So there’s probably 150 different lines of places of items scenario is [1:03:34] probably 150 different lines of places of items scenario is that you all can incorporate in [1:03:35] places of items scenario is that you all can incorporate in there and then have the ability [1:03:36] that you all can incorporate in there and then have the ability and will be working with staff [1:03:37] there and then have the ability and will be working with staff later today to get them trained [1:03:40] and will be working with staff later today to get them trained up on the model. And as Mister [1:03:41] later today to get them trained up on the model. And as Mister Howard said, we’re around. [1:03:43] up on the model. And as Mister Howard said, we’re around. So if you have questions, if [1:03:45] Howard said, we’re around. So if you have questions, if there’s needs, we’re happy to [1:03:46] So if you have questions, if there’s needs, we’re happy to be able to fulfill those with [1:03:48] there’s needs, we’re happy to be able to fulfill those with you all. Very good. Thank you [1:03:49] be able to fulfill those with you all. Very good. Thank you so much. And Commissioner [1:03:49] you all. Very good. Thank you so much. And Commissioner Pentagon, I believe you had a [1:03:52] so much. And Commissioner Pentagon, I believe you had a question. [1:03:53] Pentagon, I believe you had a question. >> I didn’t. I was just [1:03:55] question. >> I didn’t. I was just falling, Mr. Howard you know, [1:03:55] >> I didn’t. I was just falling, Mr. Howard you know, attack shift and I know you [1:03:58] falling, Mr. Howard you know, attack shift and I know you have mentioned this a lot. [1:03:59] attack shift and I know you have mentioned this a lot. Commissioner. [1:03:59] have mentioned this a lot. Commissioner. >> You know, if it came to a [1:04:02] Commissioner. >> You know, if it came to a greater reduction property [1:04:03] >> You know, if it came to a greater reduction property taxes, people would still have [1:04:04] greater reduction property taxes, people would still have to pay would be a shift just to [1:04:06] taxes, people would still have to pay would be a shift just to everybody over the 500,000. [1:04:07] to pay would be a shift just to everybody over the 500,000. It would we would have Dennis [1:04:10] everybody over the 500,000. It would we would have Dennis View everything and then no [1:04:12] It would we would have Dennis View everything and then no one wants to pull exemptions [1:04:14] View everything and then no one wants to pull exemptions off. You know, it’s not been [1:04:16] one wants to pull exemptions off. You know, it’s not been popular about people that [1:04:18] off. You know, it’s not been popular about people that really paid no taxes, but [1:04:18] popular about people that really paid no taxes, but that’s I’ve fear. That’s what [1:04:20] really paid no taxes, but that’s I’ve fear. That’s what it would have to come to. [1:04:24] that’s I’ve fear. That’s what it would have to come to. Everybody would be paying 4 [1:04:24] it would have to come to. Everybody would be paying 4 police officers. Everyone would [1:04:25] Everybody would be paying 4 police officers. Everyone would be paying for fire. Everyone [1:04:27] police officers. Everyone would be paying for fire. Everyone would be paying for. [1:04:31] be paying for fire. Everyone would be paying for. >> The the the thing that makes [1:04:34] would be paying for. >> The the the thing that makes that tough is yet in St use [1:04:34] >> The the the thing that makes that tough is yet in St use which follow ad Valorem and [1:04:36] that tough is yet in St use which follow ad Valorem and the exemptions. [1:04:39] which follow ad Valorem and the exemptions. >> And then you have msbu so [1:04:42] the exemptions. >> And then you have msbu so that how you can apply them [1:04:43] >> And then you have msbu so that how you can apply them work different. And every thing [1:04:44] that how you can apply them work different. And every thing that we would have to pull out, [1:04:47] work different. And every thing that we would have to pull out, we would which. I don’t like [1:04:48] that we would have to pull out, we would which. I don’t like because I do feel like it’s a [1:04:48] we would which. I don’t like because I do feel like it’s a tech shift and it all comes [1:04:51] because I do feel like it’s a tech shift and it all comes with a cost. [1:04:52] tech shift and it all comes with a cost. >> You know, we have to hire [1:04:52] with a cost. >> You know, we have to hire people to figure that all out [1:04:54] >> You know, we have to hire people to figure that all out to make it legal. So if that [1:04:58] people to figure that all out to make it legal. So if that does happen, people will not be [1:05:00] to make it legal. So if that does happen, people will not be free. I think of paying [1:05:01] does happen, people will not be free. I think of paying anything, but it would be very [1:05:02] free. I think of paying anything, but it would be very expensive to the community. [1:05:08] anything, but it would be very expensive to the community. To shift that back around. [1:05:10] expensive to the community. To shift that back around. >> We say sometimes I’m amaka. [1:05:12] To shift that back around. >> We say sometimes I’m amaka. I was in Tallahassee and to me [1:05:13] >> We say sometimes I’m amaka. I was in Tallahassee and to me and told me I’m not going to [1:05:15] I was in Tallahassee and to me and told me I’m not going to point out, but they some folks [1:05:17] and told me I’m not going to point out, but they some folks sometimes are given the rest to [1:05:19] point out, but they some folks sometimes are given the rest to draw course sometimes. Is it [1:05:20] sometimes are given the rest to draw course sometimes. Is it looking like a camel? They [1:05:22] draw course sometimes. Is it looking like a camel? They didn’t mean that. But that’s [1:05:23] looking like a camel? They didn’t mean that. But that’s what they get at the end of [1:05:26] didn’t mean that. But that’s what they get at the end of its. I hope the whatever [1:05:27] what they get at the end of its. I hope the whatever they’re trying to draw that [1:05:28] its. I hope the whatever they’re trying to draw that they draw correctly and it [1:05:30] they’re trying to draw that they draw correctly and it doesn’t impact us. No harm us [1:05:32] they draw correctly and it doesn’t impact us. No harm us because we don’t want to hurt [1:05:33] doesn’t impact us. No harm us because we don’t want to hurt us in some fun that will [1:05:35] because we don’t want to hurt us in some fun that will continue to work with our our [1:05:37] us in some fun that will continue to work with our our friends in Tallahassee and the [1:05:39] continue to work with our our friends in Tallahassee and the we’ll continue to find a better [1:05:42] friends in Tallahassee and the we’ll continue to find a better path forward. That doesn’t hurt [1:05:43] we’ll continue to find a better path forward. That doesn’t hurt anyone. [1:05:43] path forward. That doesn’t hurt anyone. >> Well, we have roughly what? [1:05:44] anyone. >> Well, we have roughly what? 45 million dollars in state [1:05:49] >> Well, we have roughly what? 45 million dollars in state mandates that. I think the [1:05:49] 45 million dollars in state mandates that. I think the lion’s share of that comes out [1:05:51] mandates that. I think the lion’s share of that comes out of ad valorem. So I’d be very [1:05:51] lion’s share of that comes out of ad valorem. So I’d be very open a lot in a few discussion [1:05:53] of ad valorem. So I’d be very open a lot in a few discussion of the dose team. I think [1:05:56] open a lot in a few discussion of the dose team. I think they’re going to rebrand the [1:05:57] of the dose team. I think they’re going to rebrand the name. I’m always open to cost [1:05:59] they’re going to rebrand the name. I’m always open to cost saving opportunities, [1:06:00] name. I’m always open to cost saving opportunities, opportunities for more I’ve got [1:06:03] saving opportunities, opportunities for more I’ve got a lot of thoughts on that [1:06:04] opportunities for more I’ve got a lot of thoughts on that statewide. [1:06:04] a lot of thoughts on that statewide. >> I actually had a little bit [1:06:05] statewide. >> I actually had a little bit of a background purchasing and [1:06:07] >> I actually had a little bit of a background purchasing and things like that. The past, [1:06:10] of a background purchasing and things like that. The past, I think there are [1:06:11] things like that. The past, I think there are opportunities. 2 U.S. have to [1:06:13] I think there are opportunities. 2 U.S. have to tax dollars actually even be [1:06:15] opportunities. 2 U.S. have to tax dollars actually even be more efficient, more effective. [1:06:17] tax dollars actually even be more efficient, more effective. But I think you can do that on [1:06:18] more efficient, more effective. But I think you can do that on a statewide basis. Some [1:06:19] But I think you can do that on a statewide basis. Some programs and things like that. [1:06:20] a statewide basis. Some programs and things like that. So I think there’s some upper [1:06:22] programs and things like that. So I think there’s some upper teens are efficiencies all in. [1:06:24] So I think there’s some upper teens are efficiencies all in. I told us what we want most. [1:06:26] teens are efficiencies all in. I told us what we want most. The technology advancements [1:06:27] I told us what we want most. The technology advancements improvements. The first one [1:06:27] The technology advancements improvements. The first one is going to roll up my sleeves. [1:06:28] improvements. The first one is going to roll up my sleeves. Actually. I think we were the [1:06:31] is going to roll up my sleeves. Actually. I think we were the on the first of 3 counties that [1:06:34] Actually. I think we were the on the first of 3 counties that voluntarily went forward and [1:06:35] on the first of 3 counties that voluntarily went forward and said, you know, we’ve given him [1:06:35] voluntarily went forward and said, you know, we’ve given him all the debt and things like [1:06:36] said, you know, we’ve given him all the debt and things like that. So I’m excited about [1:06:37] all the debt and things like that. So I’m excited about that. Those kind of [1:06:39] that. So I’m excited about that. Those kind of opportunities and welcome those [1:06:39] that. Those kind of opportunities and welcome those opportunities that I think when [1:06:41] opportunities and welcome those opportunities that I think when they get here, I kind of had [1:06:44] opportunities that I think when they get here, I kind of had discussions with them.
