KAY S. BLANCHARD
The proposed Harnett County Budget for 2001-2002 is hereby submitted for review and
consideration by the Board of Commissioners. This year several factors exist which
directly impacted our ability to develop a balanced budget within existing revenue streams.
While these factors will be discussed in more detail during budget discussions, I believe it is
important to note up -front the impact they have had on this document. The following
notes the most important of these:
A. While we have experienced significant growth in our tax base during the
nineties, this year overall growth has been minimal due to limited growth and
the loss of Swift Textiles.
B. Other revenue sources have also experienced actual decreases or minimal
growth. These include sales tax, inspection fees, and other revenues related to
overall county development.
C. The state budget crisis has threatened county revenue sources and has limited
resources available from the State.
D. Expenditures mandated by the state continue to require significant contributions
by the county. This year alone, the state has recommended that the county
increase its contribution to Medicaid by over 30%; thereby creating one of the
greatest increases in proposed county funding for the coming year.
E. In keeping with previous years, the budget contains a significant increase for the
Harnett County Board of Education.
F. Finally, economic conditions require that the county invest significant funds in
development efforts. In keeping with the LeakeGoforth Report, the proposed
budget contains an appropriation of $5.00 per capita for such efforts.
•
•
221
In light of these factors, we have attempted to limit any significant growth in discretionary
spending; thereby limiting growth in most county departments. We believe this approach
is prudent in view of the limited revenue growth provided for by existing revenue sources.
At the same time, we believe that it is vital that the county maintain its current strong
financial position. Therefore, I am proposing a $.05 increase in the existing general fund
tax rate. We believe this increase is necessary if we are to meet the obligations of the
county noted, while maintaining our overall financial stability.
The following budget overview notes the highlights of the proposed budget in regards to
revenue sources as well as expenditures. In addition, we have prepared charts and graphs
that illustrate significant changes and

Officer, and Tony Wilder, Assistant
County Manager, for their assistance

Administrative Staff who assisted in this effort.
GENERAL FUND REVENUE
The 2001-2002 budget has been developed based upon revenue projections that reflect low
growth as well as actual declines in revenues generated by some fees. Therefore, we have
developed this document based upon very conservative revenue projections. The following
review highlights the status of the major county revenue sources as well as changes of
particular interest:
Ad Valorem Tax - The budget has been developed based on a tax levy of $27,556,323 and
a collection rate of 92.5%. Utilizing a tax rate of $.78, we have projected tax collections of
• $25,489,599 for the upcoming year. The proposed increase in the rate will increase
revenue and will off -set the lack of growth from this revenue source while also providing
the funding necessary to meet the needs of our schools and state mandated programs such
as Medicaid.
Sales Tax - Growth in this revenue is projected to be extremely low. This is due to an
overall slow -down in our state's economy and reflects a sign fkant loss of revenue growth
that we have enjoyed in past years. However, please keep in mind that a portion of this
revenue is dedicated to school capital needs and is utilized to pay a portion of the debt
service for schools.
Other Revenue - Revenue from fees has experienced an overall decrease. Therefore, we
are recommending fee increases in several departments such as Planning an EMS. The
proposed increase in EMS fees would permit the County to maximize reimbursements from
Medicare.
Fund Balance - Harnett County has a
Projected Expenditures by Function - long tradition of maintaining an
2001 -2002 available fund balance of at least 15%.
General Fund - $61,089.557
This tradition is one that I believe we
D tO Zov"Enrlrnn.
should maintain. County management
%
DnnDn°.n., continues to work toward the goal of
supporting current operations from
current revenues while maintaining a
General Fund balance sufficient to
provide both adequate working capital
and reserves for unanticipated
E. expenditures. However, in light of
^° revenue shortfalls and in an attempt to
Dvv.
minimize the additional burden placed
upon taxpayers, I am recommending that the appropriation from the fund balance be
increased this year. This fact should be kept in mind when considering the current
proposed budget as well as the budget for the following fiscal year.
GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES
Growth in General Fund Expenditures continues to reflect that the county is one of the
fastest growing in the state. In response to this growth, the county must invest its
resources in an attempt to address the needs of its growing population. At the same time,
we are faced with a reduction in our overall revenues. With these two factors in mind, we
are recommending growth in key expenditures such as education as well as in mandated
programs such as Medicaid. At the same time, we have provided for very limited budget
growth in day -today department operations.
222
Personnel - In view of existing budget circumstances, we are proposing minimal increases
in cost related to personnel. While we have incorporated a 2.5% cost of living increase
into the budget, we are not recommending any salary adjustments or reclassifications
except those required by the state. In regards to new personnel, we are only
recommending the addition of positions funded by state or grant funds as well as
additional staffing for the Sheriff's Department.
Economic Development - The LeakoGoforth Report recommended the appropriation of
$5.00 per capita for economic development efforts. The budget contains funds to meet
this recommendation. is
Human Services Programs - Medicaid funding is the most significant factor influencing
the proposed budget. With an increase of funding of one million dollars, this line item has
played a significant part in requiring the proposed tax increase.
Sheriff's Department - The proposed budget contains funding for additional personnel in
this department. These positions will be utilized to fund positions recommended by the
recent communications study as well as additional law enforcement officers.
Board of Education - This year, the recommended appropriation for the public schools
was developed by utilizing an ADM of 16,500 which is consistent with last year's budget
projections. An 8% increase per ADM has been provided for within the proposed budget.
However, budget projections do incorporate use of a portion of the sales tax dedicated to
the schools for school capital needs. In addition, the budget calls for a contribution of
$600,000 from ADM funds to meet debt service needs for the Highland Elementary
School. It should be noted that this revenue source will not be available next year once
financing for a new high school is entered into.
PUBLIC UTILITIES
Growth in Public Utilities has slowed over the past year. In addition, we are undertaking
several major capital projects that will impact this portion of the budget. Therefore, we
are recommending a rate increase which will permit the county to fund proposed capital
projects while also providing resources for day -today operations. In addition, $600,000
from this fund has been transferred to the General Fund.
CONCLUSION •
We believe the proposed 2001-2002 Budget is a very conservative document that
recognizes the importance of preserving the county's strong financial position.
