What are the differences between the FY19 and FY20 proposed budget? The major change to the proposed FY2020 Assessors Budget is the shift of our annual revaluation contract back to a capital expense. In FY2018 and FY2019 this cost was shifted into the Assessors Operating Budget but will now be moved back to capital with the idea that Overlay Surplus could be used for funding. The other major change to the Assessors Department is that the department staff has completely turned over within the last year and a half. Because of the turnover, the wages have been reduced. Also because of the turnover, office practices are changing and modernizing. The wage savings are proposed to be used to offset increased Professional Development and Technical Services costs, to replace antiquated equipment, and to offset other expenses. 2. What are the reasons for any increases or decreases? The total budget, salaries and expenses, are proposed to be level funded. The proposed budget redistributes salary savings to offset increased operating expenses. 3. Are you adding/reducing any personnel or programs? The two positions remain the same, the responsibilities of the office remain the same. 4. What are your top budgeting priorities for FY20? Being my second time preparing the budget, m y top priority is to continue to refine the budget based on actual needs and expenses. My first budget was mostly carried over from the previous year without the benefit of a full year in the position to accurately adjust the budget as needed. 5. Are there any expenses that could be deferred? What would be the impact? This budget is the result of deferred expenses. The impact we are now facing is that our office supplies and equipment are now antiquated. The Assessors’ Office is in a transition phase and is modernizing. There is an increased cost to modernize, but with the offset of decreased salary this is an ideal year to absorb those increases. 6. Recap of revenues and their sources? The Assessors’ Office is responsible for administering property valuation in relation to Real Estate Tax, Personal Property Tax, Motor Vehicle Excise Tax, and Boat Excise Tax. The Assessors’ Office is also responsible for inspecting and reporting New Growth to the Department of Revenue for approval. The Assessors’ Office also administers various PILOTs (Payments in Lieu of Taxes). 7. Are any pricing/fee changes proposed? No pricing/fee changes are proposed. There are two major categories of fees. One is public records/document requests and the other is abutter list requests. We are limited in our ability to adjust fees for public records requests. The fees are based on the printing costs and if there is research time involved. Abutter list fees are also based on printing costs. Most abutter list requests are a result of other permitting requirements from other departments with associated fees. The abutter list fee is low, but it covers the cost of materials. 8. If your budget was level funded what would be a few major impacts to your operations? This budget, as proposed, is level funded. The decrease in salaries is proposed to offset expenses. 9. Are any revolving fund or receipts reserve changes proposed and for what reason? N/A NARRATIVE FOR BOARD OF ASSESSORS FY 2020 BUDGET REQUEST The Board of Assessors has a staff of two full time employees: The Deputy Assessor and a Senior Department Assistant. The Board of Assessors is a three member Board. The following will provide more detailed explanations of the categories in the Fiscal Year 2020 budget for the Board of Assessors. General Budget Changes: The major change to the proposed FY2020 Assessors Budget is the shift of our annual revaluation contract back to a capital expense. In FY2018 and FY2019 this cost was shifted into the Assessors Operating Budget but will now be moved back to capital with the idea that Overlay Surplus could be used for funding. This revaluation contract is used to perform the work required to inspect properties, update data, and perform the necessary analysis to set the values for the fiscal year. The valuation contract also inspects and documents new growth and value certification by the Department of Revenue. As a result of ‘Municipal Modernization’ the state has shifted from a 3-year Certification Cycle to a 5-year Certification Cycle. Our most recent valuation contract was for FY17-18-19. Our next Certification Year is FY2022. W e are seeking a 3-year contract for FY2020-2021-2022 to get us to our next Certification Year. W e will then seek to switch to a 5 -year contract to keep us in line with the new Certification Cycle. The other major change to the Assessors Department is that the department staff has completely turned over within the last year and a half. The Deputy Assessor started in August 2017 and the Senior Department Assistant started in November 2018. Because of the turnover, the wages have been reduced. Also because of the turnover, office practices are changing and modernizing. The wage savings are proposed to be used to offset increased Professional Development and Technical Services costs, to replace antiquated equipment, and to offset other expenses. Salaries/Wages: The salaries/wages will see an overall decrease this year. This was due to the unfortunate passing of our previous Senior Department Assistant and the hiring of a new Senior Department Assistant at a lower rate of pay. There is also a reduction in longevity. Total: $117,807 (previous $125,356) Professional Development – I am requesting to increase the previous budgeted amount for Professional Development. The reasoning behind the request is due to a few factors. First, the cost of the meetings, conferences, and trainings has increased. Second, the Assessors’ Office staff are both relatively new to the position. Any opportunities for training and networking are extremely beneficial. The breakdown of the Professional Development Request is as follows: · Barnstable County Assessors Association - $800 (increase from $400 previous) the increase would allow both staff and Board Members to attend meetings; · MAAO Summer Conference - $250 x 2 = $500 (increase from $250 previous); Assessors Course for recertification - $275 x 2 = 550 (increase from $275) the increase would allow both staff to attend the conference and retain certification; · Assessors courses for new staff - $825 (previously $825); the cost per course averages $275, this would allow for either the Deputy Assessor or the Department Assistant to attend courses throughout the year as they become available; · Other courses/training opportunities - $325 (increase from $250), some examples of other opportunities include “What’s new in Municipal Law”, “Data Collection W orkshop”, “MAAO Ethics”, “USPAP Recertif ication”, Clerk’s meetings, etc. This item could also pay for Board of Assessors members to attend meetings or trainings. TOTAL: $3,000 (previous $2,000) Technical Services – The Technical Services budget will be reduced by $77,000 by moving the revaluation contract services to a capital expense. After removing that item I am requesting an increase of $2,000 for Technical Services. This increase is due to increased costs of maintaining our Assessors Maps in accordance with MassGIS standards. This increase is also used to cover recording fees at the Registry of Deeds and other technical/consulting services. An example of other technical/consulting services would be defense of values in case of an appeal. The breakdown of Professional/Technical Services is as follows: GIS Mapping Updates - $2,500 (previously $1,800); Registry of Deeds - $500 (previously $200; typical cost of recording is $75/document); other - $1,000 (previously $0). TOTAL: $4,000 (previous $79,000) Supplies – I am requesting to increase the supply budget to $3,000 (previously $300). This includes general office supplies (pens, pencils, disks, etc.); mailing supplies (envelopes and labels); and office equipment. This increase is mostly because much of the office equipment is antiquated and has not been updated in many many years. Some examples of necessary equipment that needs replacement are the department copier, two adding machines, and office furniture that is in disrepair. TOTAL: $3,000 (previous $300) Lodging: $500 (previous $0) Annual MAAO Assessing School is held in Amherst for 5 days each summer. With two new employees, we would like to be able to send one to Amherst. Meals: $200 (previous $0) Again, with two new employees and the opportunity to attend school in Amherst. Mileage: Travel to and from conferences and assessing courses, and to Boston for Appellate Tax Board cases. Again, now two employees needing to attend classes. If both employees are traveling to the same location, carpooling will be required, rather than two mileage reimbursements. TOTAL $800 (previous $225). *Note: The Assessors’ Office does not currently perform enough “in -house” inspections to warrant a department vehicle. However, there are periods when field reviews are more frequent – abatement reviews, annual sales reviews, and data quality reviews. At those times it may be beneficial to coordinate use of a shared town vehicle with other departments. Dues/Subscriptions-Massachusetts Association of Assessing Officers-$200; Barnstable County Assessors Association-$225. The increase will allow for other subscription services such as MLS. TOTAL: $1,000 (previous $425) GRAND TOTAL: $130,307 (previous $207,306; subtract $77,000 for revaluation and previous would have been $130,306). Increase of 0.00001%. Capital Article: Valuation Contract Services: $80,000 As mentioned above, the Valuation Contract Services have been moved back to a Capital Article for FY2020 after being included in operating expenses for FY2018 & FY2019. The Valuation Contract Services are subject to an RFP. The expected opening date of the RFP is in March 2019 so the $80,000 amount is an estimated place holder until the contract is awarded. The Valuation Contract performs all the inspections and data collection as required for New Growth and Cyclical Re-inspections. New Growth inspections review all building permits for new construction or additions that add value to properties. Cyclical Re-inspections are a DOR requirement that all properties be re-inspected at least once every 10 years. These inspections and the associated data entry into the Assessor Database are roughly the equivalent of two (2) full time employees. In addition, the data analysis and reporting to DOR for value certification ensures that values are set and certified in a timely manner so that the Tax Rate is set and Tax Bills can be issued on time. The proposed funding source for this article is Overlay Surplus.

What are the differences between the FY19 and FY20 proposed budget? There are significant decreases in the Contracted Services line and moderate increases in the Rentals & Leases and Internet lines. 2. What are the reasons for any increases or decreases? We anticipate additional costs for internet services from migrating our website to a managed platform. Rentals & Leases were under budgeted by the prior Finance Director Contracted Services were over budgeted by the prior Finance Director. Internet Services increase for two reasons 1) Higher website support annual fees due to migration to a managed platform. 2) Barnstable County has discontinued funding for the Regional Wide Area Network, which provided internet to Brewster and we will need to pick up these costs. 3. Are you adding/reducing any personnel or programs? We are anticipating upgrades to our website and a migration to a managed platform. We are anticipating an upgrade to our permitting solution, which will include online permit applications —a capital article for the purchase was approved in FY19, but given the fiscal situation, we have delayed making the purchase until we had a better grasp on fiscal realities as it will involve significantly higher annual support costs. 4. What are your top budgeting priorities for FY20? An upgrade to our permitting program is long overdue. I consider this my highest priority for the next fiscal year, but it will not impact FY20 budgeting. It will affect FY21 budgeting for annual support and we will take the budget impact into account when choosing a platform. 5. Are there any expenses that could be deferred? What would be the impact? We could delay our website upgrades, but the savings of a few thousand dollars would be minimal. 6. Recap of revenues and their sources? Not applicable 7. Are any pricing/fee changes proposed? Not applicable 8. If your budget was level funded what would be a few major impacts to your operations? Due to past over-budgeting, this budget is a reduction from FY19. 9. Are any revolving fund or receipts reserve changes proposed and for what reason? Not applicable. Information Technology Budget Narrative Computer Supplies is a catch all for printer toner, keyboards, mice, utility programs, upgrades and purchases of programs which don't fit under the capital articles, but are necessary to keep computers in good repair and software up to date. Contracted Services are our support/maintenance contracts. The majority of these are not optional costs and are required unless we wish to terminate our use of the programs. There are some significant reductions here. Vadar is significantly down from the figure provided for FY2019 provided by our former Finance Director. I have confirmed with Frank Natale, the President of Vadar that my FY20 number is accurate and this is also the actual amount paid in FY2019. We also had allocated $25,000 for hiring part-time contract help in the IT Department. I have reduced this to $10,000, which is more than adequate. We currently have arrangements with Unified Networking Services and have used their expertise on our email migration and some advanced network routing configuration and they are on-call for emergency support and vacation coverage. The totals are $13,860 for the Paul Kapinos Assessing program and online property cards $25,253 for Vadar Systems for accounting, payroll, and tax collection) $9,974 Sage Software (payroll & human resources, formerly bundled with Vadar) $1,300 ArcMap GIS (5 copies) $6,781 Laserfiche $5,250 Sophos Cloud Antivirus/Intercept-X/Firewall* $3,750 Malwarebytes Subscription* $3,500 Mozy Online Backup* $1,200 Bonsai Sticker Tracker $2,694 BMSI Permitting Software $3,600 MyRec.com Software $6,000 People GIS* $1,014 Veeam Backup* $880 Orca email archiving* $1,195 eCode360 (replaces and enhances Code CD) $1,300 Logmein Central (1088 correction from spreadsheet) $10,000 Contract IT Services as Needed (Unified et al.) TOTAL: 97,551 Rentals and Leases are the costs associated with copier leasing, maintenance, and copy paper paper. These were previously in the Maintenance Departments budget, but were added to IT last year and the amount set by our Finance Director. The increase is based on actual costs taken from FY19 first-half expenditures. Internet Services are maintenance fees and support for the website and payment for our town-wide internet connection. This figure is significantly increased as Barnstable County has discontinued the Regional Area Network that provided internet and other network services to towns and we will need to pick up that expense. We also expect to be migrating our website to a managed provider which will result in a small increase in annual hosting fees.
