MEMORANDUM
! DATE: April 29, 2015
i TO: Peter Gill, President, Winthrop Town Council
: FROM: James M. McKenna, Esq., Town Manager
H RE: FY2016 Budget Letter
Dear President Gill:

As required by the Winthrop Town Charter, Section 2.4, and consistent with Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 44,
Section 34, |am pleased to submit herewith the proposed operating and capital budgets for the Town of Winthrop,
MA for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2015.

As presented, the operating budget for Fiscal Year 2016 is balanced. It is primarily funded in large part through our
local property taxes, as well as Local Aid provided by the Commonwealth and other local receipts and income. |
believe this FY'16 Budget is consistent with the Council guidelines for budget planning established by the Town
Council in its directive to me last December, 2014, which calls for a budget built upon the following objectives:

 — Tocontinue to fund the mission critical elements of town government, including public safety, public
education and public health;

* To continue to pursue town-wide improvements, such as

© improving our physical appearance as a community,
i © addressing needed public works improvements, and
© providing streets, sidewalks and facilities maintenance that continues to assure appropriate
stewardship for the town’s public assets;

e Provide support for the enforcement of state and local laws and ordinances that ensures public health and
safety, that encourage compliance with building, health and sanitation codes, and that lead to
improvements to residential and commercial properties throughout the community;

e Continue to adhere to fiscal policy objectives adopted by the Council that have served to improve the
town's overall fiscal condition;

© Revenue projections based upon conservative estimates consistent with the limits of Proposition 2 1/2.

«@ = To maintain other essential public services that the town has come to expect from its local government.

In recent years, our town budgets have tended to showcase an annual policy theme consistent with the emerging

needs of the community. For example, the FY'13 General Fund budget was focused on improving funding for public

education. In FY'14, the budget had a strong public safety component. In FY’15, we made some substantial capital

investments, including a fire engine, several other municipal vehicles, and continued to support parks and

infrastructure improvements. Also, we strengthened our Building Department, converting it to a Department of a
Inspectional Services, and by doing so we provided sufficient resources to improve on local code enforcement,

particularly in the areas of habitation, sanitation and zoning enforcement. The results of this current year's budget

have been nothing short of remarkable, as the Department of Inspectional Services has guided five residential

properties through the judicial "receivership" program, resulting in complete makeovers of these properties. This

effort has also been a catalyst for further improvements to residential properties in almost every neighborhood in
Winthrop.

Also, this year the Finance Department has implemented aggressive tax title compliance that has resulted in over
$500,000 collected in outstanding property taxes and water/sewer revenues owed to the town. Moreover, strong
free cash balances at the close of FY‘13 and FY’14 enabled the Town Council to restore balances in our general and
capital stabilization funds, bringing our total reserves to a high watermark of nine percent of operating expense.
(Please see the letter from Dick Hingston, the town's internal auditor, to the Council dated April 17, 2015 in the
Budget Appendix).

It should be noted that the revenue budget for FY’16 assumes that local aid will be as reported in the House 1 budget,
and that the MWRA mitigation funds will continue.

Labor Expense

This year, due to sizeable fixed cost increases in labor contract expense, health insurance, and pension costs, this
budget could best be described as a "maintenance" funding budget. That is not to suggest that there will be little to
get excited about over this next year. To the contrary, we will be pursuing Contract IV infrastructure improvements to
both the Cottage Hill area and Plummer/Pico Ave areas of town, complete with full street resurfacing and sidewalk
repairs. This is a significant public works project that will expend approximately $3.5 million to improve these two
neighborhoods of the community. In addition, we will continue in our efforts to tackle the Veteran’s Road/Lewis Lake
and Miller's Field redevelopment projects, seeking funding, engineering and plan design efforts.

The cost of labor is our largest operating expense. Since most all labor contracts expired on June 30, 2015, we had to
carry forward a "double hit" on labor expense into the FY'16 budget, resulting in a compounding effect of two years
of adjustment in a single year's budget. This, coupled with a rate increase of 6.9% for employee health insurance as
contracted through the GIC, as well as an increase in pension expense, translates into a 54.5% charge against
available revenues going forward in our FY'16 budget.

Most of the town's labor contracts have been settled at two percent annual cost of living adjustments over fiscal
years FY'15, FY'16 and FY'17. Remaining outstanding are the two police union agreements, one of which is presently
in mediation. Due to the length of time it has taken to negotiate these agreements, we will have to carry forward a
balance in the Manager's Salary Reserve line item in anticipation of police contract settlement.

Health insurance

Since 2008, the town has participated in the state’s "Group Insurance Commission" program for providing health
insurance coverage for its municipal and retired employees. In large measure, this has been a very favorable decision
for both the town and the employees for several reasons, Chief among these is the fact that in recent years, premium
rate hikes have been stable, in and around the one to two percentage annual adjustments, while plan choice and
options remain significantly more robust than a single provider approach. However, during this time, the GIC
expressed concern that there was a growing revenue gap to support increased obligations, particularly the absorption
of transition requirements pursuant to the Affordable Care Act. Thus, health plans unanimously announced rate hikes
from 4% to 9%, with an average rate adjustment for Winthrop at 6.9% for fiscal 2016. Going forward, a budgetary
concern should be noted that we are likely to see similar annual rate adjustments as the full effects of "Obamacare"
are implemented.

Pension and OPEB

,

Our pension expense has increased $55,000 or 2% for fiscal 2016. We continue to support the effort to provide for
our "OPEB" expense (Other Post Employment Benefits unfunded liability). Although the amount is still modest, !
believe it shows that we are continuing to recognize that we must build an adequate reserve to hedge against this
future expense. It remains a budgetary goal to fund this liability at higher levels when there is sufficient headroom in
our operating budget to do so.

Public Education

North Shore Vocational Technical High School reports that the town of Winthrop's assessment for FY'16 will increase
from $747,349 to $871,411, an increase of $124,000 over last year. This is due to what the school projects as 68
students planning to attend the "Voc" over last year's total of 64 students. Accommodating this increase required a
surgical cut of twenty-five to fifty basis points across all departments with the exception of public safety.

North Shore Agricultural High School reports that three students will attend in the fall 2015, bringing this expense
down to $62,868 from $129,764.

Meanwhile, our "School Choice" figures have also seen unfavorable adjustment, where the reimbursement from
choice-in funding that goes directly to the school district is trending to be $65,000 in FY'16, down from $170,000 in
FY15. The choice-out funding that comes off the town’s local aid allotment, has grown from $20,100 to $26,800 in
Fy’'16.

That said, | am pleased to report that we are exceeding prior year commitments to public education both at the
district level as well as when we take all public education funding as a whole. | am recommending an increase to the
district of 2.75% or $465,000, which is in line with pro rata spending when we compare the schools vis-a-vis other
town departments. Overall, | am pleased to see that the transition to a three-campus footprint has not resulted in
significant detriment to our students nor stalled the innovative efforts of our educators.

One area that will require significant budgetary planning will be the accommodation of technology expertise when
the new Middle High School is opened next year. Given the state-of-the-art technology that will be deployed
throughout the schools in the coming years, we must consider building our technology personnel within each of the
town’s schools such that we optimize this aspect of learning to enable our educators to stay ahead of the curve.

Areas of Budgetary Adjustment
Town Manager's Office

This year | am proposing a reorganization of the Town Manager’s Office to align duties and responsibilities. This is a
healthy way to recalibrate the attentions and abilities of the office, and to focus our efforts on high-level project
management to successfully accomplish the much advancement that the Council envisions for the community. | also
must assign and hold accountable staff that will assist me in the following matter: implementing fiscal and contract
aspects of all capital improvement projects throughout the community, to provide consistent oversight and support
to the various initiatives in the community, and to provide technical support to other departments as they navigate to
project completion. | am recommending that the administrative assistant duties be compressed to one position, and
the project management and administration be dispersed between two positions, one focused on economic
development (commercial and residential development) and improving Winthrop’s redevelopment processes, with a
focus on working with and supporting the Planning Board and other land use boards and committees to ensure
project oversight and continuity, other capital improvement projects management such as street lights, parks, FEMA
projects, Town Hall Cupola, etc., as well as continuing to fulfill the grant writing and administration. The second
position, entitled Community Services Manager, will focuses on promoting and coordinating the cultural and tourism
activities of the town, promoting the ferry and managing the activities and customer service aspects of the ferry,
developing a Tourism profile for the community, seeking state cultural district designation, and providing support to

all of the public service components of the office. What we have come to learn in anticipation of the ferry service is

that it is one thing to operate a ferry, yet it is quite another thing to operate a transportation service. Moreover, there -
is more to the ferry than just a transportation service, Rather, this opportunity compels the town to consider and

position itself as a recreational destination in the region. Thus, while we have the Harbormaster’s Office for operating

the service, we still need a managerial level person to manage the customer service aspects of the service and to

promote the community to the region. This person will also assist with other Town Manager initiatives, such as

seeking state designation and grant funding for a Cultural District in Winthrop, the Farmer’s Market, introducing a

bike share program to town, working collaboratively with the Economic Development Manager to seek grant funding

and support for the Belle Isle Marine Park and Walkway, and finally, to coordinate our social media and website

content and explore the development of a soon-to-be launched online retail store promoting all things Winthrop!

Veteran's Services

In recent years, the Veteran’s Office has made great advancement in servicing the needs of Winthrop’s veterans. Yet,
this success comes with added expense, particularly in the area of providing financial income for Veterans who are
out of work. While the town is reimbursed up to 75% for such “Chapter 115” benefits paid to unemployed veterans,
still the town’s obligation to provide up-front funding to pay out these benefits is significant in that it takes operating
dollars away from other needs of the community.

MGLc. 115 Veteran's Benefits

Town of Winthrop

Since Fiscal 2011, the town has seen an increase in Chapter 115 Benefits of 314%. Thus, it is incumbent upon the
Veteran’s Agent to encourage the re-employment of work eligible veteran’s and to do what needs ta be done to assist
them in job placement and training. While our budget funding recommendation appears to be a reduction of 19%
from FY’15 spending, it is a 55% increase from the budgeted amount in FY’15.

Public Facilities Division of DPW =

The Public Facilities Division of the Department of Public Works has had a very busy year, assisting in the “swing
space” transition of our schools from four campuses to three, and in tackling a myriad of facility improvement
Projects in nearly all of the town properties. For many years, the town has suffered —for good reason — the criticism
that it does not properly care for its buildings. | am proud to say that this statement is no longer true and is well on its
way to becoming folklore, thanks in large part to creation of this consolidated and properly staffed maintenance
department, bringing in-house the services of a licensed General Contractor and other electrical, HVAC and carpentry
skills necessary to address the multitude of small projects that lead to large annoyances if not quickly addressed.
Please see the memorandum from Richard Cifuni, Public Facilities Director, in the Exhibits section of the budget, for a

complete reiteration of work activities over this past fiscal year. To say the least, these are efforts that we wish to
continue unabated into the foreseeable future.

Other Notable Items:

The Town Council has recognized the need to continuously fund sidewalk improvements each fiscal year. This year is
no exception, although the source of funding will not be from the town's free cash reserves. The Town Council has
approved the programmed Contract IV sewer and waterworks improvements for the Cottage Hill and Plumber
Ave/Pico Ave areas of town. This $2.8 million public works project will include street and sidewalk improvements
funded with an additional $650,000 bond. The debt for this work has been included in the budget.

We have used conservative revenue projections for our Rink and Recreation Enterprise Funds. While both funds have
outperformed this year, exerting budgetary pressure on both revenue and expenditures to be increased, we cannot
take a single year approach for setting the expense side of the budget for these departments. Our revised budget
request reflect a more modest adjustment that, like last year, may require a mid-year supplemental adjustment.

Sewer/Water Enterprise Funds:

The largest adjustment to our water and sewer budgets tends to be the assessment we are charged by the MWRA for
water consumption. This year, our water assessment increased 12.9% due to increased consumption in 2014. This,
coupled with fixed cost increases in insurance expense and debt service, will result in a water rate increase of
$0.45/100 cubic feet, to a total of $6.50/100 cubic feet. The sewer rate will remain unchanged in FY’16. When taken
together, the proposed rate adjustment is modest, as we are using a portion of retained earnings to offset the full
impact of the assessment.

We have continued the policy of providing a built-in reserve of unanticipated ruptures to infrastructure.

ver! rpli

Under separate cover, we will be seeking a vote in FY’16 of the Council to appropriate a sum form the town’s Overlay
Surplus to support the “9-year” cyclical re-inspection program as mandated by DOR.

Capital Plan

The 5-Year Capital Plan is included herewith. We are funding two items that have been obligated: a) the debt service
for the $650,000 sidewalks for Contract !V, and b) the financing payment for the Fire Chief vehicle. While we have
selected the top projects to be funded in FY’16, we are recommending that these item be funding to the extent
allowed under the Town Council policies regarding the redistribution of available free cash in FY’16.

Winthrop Ferry Service - Beginning in September, 2016

One of the more controversial issues of recent budget meetings has been the pending delivery of the town's very own
72 Passenger Ferry Vessel, and for providing ferry transportation service to and from Boston, as well as to the Boston
Harbor Islands and other points in Boston Harbor. Over the past dozen years, the town has debated whether or not
to have a ferry service between Winthrop and Boston, much like those ferries servicing the communities of Hingham
and Hull to our south, and Lynn and Salem to our north. While not everyone has been convinced of the viability of a
town ferry, most public meetings on this subject have been largely supportive of pursuing a town ferry. In addition,
our recent town survey of residents (6:5% response) indicates that there remains strong support to have a town ferry.

Moreover, the town has successfully obtained nearly $5 million in Massachusetts Seaport Bond funds and Federal
Ferry Discretionary and Federal Highway transportation grants and other assistance to build a public pier and launch,
and Ferry Terminal Building at the Town Landing. Also, the town obtained a congressional earmark to acquire a ferry
vessel, valued at nearly $1 million. Meanwhile, the town has already spent in excess of $400,000 of town funds as
required matching funds to obtain these various grants. Thus, a substantial amount of federal, state and local

resources has been invested in the infrastructure on Winthrop's waterfront to establish this ferry service. It is now up
to the town to successfully implement and operate this service.

As with all other water transportation services in the Boston Region, ferries require public subsidy to be able to
compete for customers that would otherwise use other means of vehicular or public transportation to and from
Boston. At this time, | am estimating that over the next three years, to operate a municipal ferry service for Winthrop
to a self-sustainable level will require an annual operating subsidy of no less than $100,000.00 of town funds. (Please
see addendum, tab 12, for Financial Projection Report for the Winthrop Ferry Service). To achieve sustainability will
require that we focus on four strategic objectives: a) provide marine operations oversight and staffing of the Ferry
through a coordinated effort within our Harbor Master Department; b)develop a separate "revolving fund” cost-
center under the Harbor Master Department that accounts for ferry revenues and expenditures; c) provide full-court
support for and integration of the ferry service through other town services and departments, and cultivate its use
and promotion; and d) focus the Ferry's branding not so much as a commuter service, but as a vehicle to promote
tourism and one of the means by which Winthrop can be rediscovered in the region as a great place to live, to raise a
family, to access the Harbor Islands, to eat at our emerging restaurants, to shop in our stores and to have fun at our
beaches, and more. in short, the Ferry must be the centerpiece of a tourism strategy for the town, and by which we
rebrand Winthrop as a place to rediscover as a regional recreational resource.

Like any start-up small business venture, the Winthrop Ferry service will require an initial operating capital
investment. To this end, | will be seeking Town Council support in the next few weeks for a Special Revenue
Appropriation of $50,000 from Free Cash to enable the service to achieve start-up in Fiscal 2016, In addition, the
expense of a First Assistant Harbormaster has been added to the Harbor budget.

Our plan is to conduct a 10-week “soft opening” in September through Mid-November. This will enable us to
establish a true measure of service demand and to set revenue and expenditure projections based upon actual use of
the town's new vessel, to tweak the schedule and to measure our operating expenses in real time. Once this data
analysis is completed, | will seek further strategic planning input from the Harbor Advisory Committee, the Chamber
of Commerce, and the Town Council to determine next steps and further planning for the ferry service.

Snow and Ice

When it comes to snow storms, Winthrop is a gold-glove middle weight champ. But what we experienced in a four-
week period this February was nothing short of a super-heavyweight bout with Mother Nature. After two rounds, we
were out-punched, weary and our equipment was on the verge of breakdown, We hustled. support from outside
contractors and even pulled in a team of "snow chasers” from Buffalo New York, who brought with them two 10-
wheeler dumps and three loaders - critical equipment that helped us move the snow so that we could re-establish
and maintain safe passage on all streets throughout the town. In fact, it has been reported that the amount of
record breaking snowfall in the entire Boston region of over 114 inches within a five week period was comparatively
more costly to cities and towns than was the Blizzard of 1978.

In Winthrop, due to the unpredictability of the weather, our snow & ice budget in recent years has improved to a
point where it nearly reflects the amount of funding necessary to manage an annual average snowfall.’ Our
stabilization reserves had to absorb a snow and ice deficit of $288,000, while the town will also carry another
$150,000 over as a snow-and-ice deficit reported on the town's Recapitulation Sheet that essentially pulls that
amount off the top of available FY’16 levy capacity. While the State Legislature has given cities and towns the ability
to amortize these record snow expenses over three fiscal years, | am not recommending that we do this, as |am
uncertain as what future winter seasons may bring, as well as the fact that | prefer to see the town recognize its debts
early, and continue to make fiscal decisions not on a deferred basis.

* average annual snowfall in the Boston region over the past 30 years has been 44” of accumulation. (Boston Globe, March, 2045).
Our snow/ice general cost per inch stands at $3000/inch material and labor. Thus, our average budget expense is roughly between
$130,000 and $140,000 per year. Do to the variability in this budget figure, while we budget to cover half of the expense, the second
haif is paid by expensing it as a deficit on of town’s recap sheet to expense, coming off available tax levy.

What we have learned from the recent storms is the following:

e that we have an exceptional public safety team and DPW crew;

¢ — we havea public that in large measure is both patient and accepting of the tight living conditions in our
community;

@ that we have generous neighbors in both Massport and the MWRA;

« and that we must make some critical capital investments in equipment in order to optimize our
responsiveness to such unforeseeable conditions.

In summary, | believe that you will agree that this budget accomplishes much and satisfies our mission critical
operational goals despite not having significant funding headroom for major capital equipment and/or numerous new
initiatives. | appreciate all the hard work from our departments, our management and our volunteers who make
Winthrop a better place to live and work every day.
