MEETING ITEM COMMENTARY
AGENDA ITEM: Fiscal Year 2014 – State Required Council Action
COUNCIL RESOURCE: Councilor Marston Lovell
STAFF RESOURCE: Cheryl Fournier, Finance Director
BACKGROUND: The State requires two separate actions by the Municipal
Officers after the budget is passed. Section 5682 of Title 30-A requires that the City may
receive State funds only on the affirmative vote of the Council to accept those funds. The
numbers in the motion are the estimates from the budget. Total accuracy on the estimates
is not a requirement, only that acceptance of the funds is authorized. The City Clerk must
certify the vote and return to Augusta before 7/1/13.
The Council discussed this item at Workshop on April 1 and 16, 2013. The Public
Hearing was May 6, 2013.
RECOMMENDATION: City staff recommends that the Council authorize the
acceptance of State funds.
SUGGESTED MOTION: “Be it Ordered that the City Council authorize the City
Treasurer to accept, on behalf of the City of Saco, the following categories of state funds
and their estimated amounts for the fiscal year 2013-2014 which are provided by the
Legislature of the State of Maine to the City of Saco, and which action is required under
Title 30-A MRSA 5682.
Municipal Revenue Sharing $1,223,000
Local Road Assistance $ 245,568
Tree Growth Reimbursement $ 37,000
Veterans Exemption Reimbursement $ 7,000
General Assistance Reimbursement $ 75,560
Homestead Exemption Reimbursement $ 364,000
And such other state revenues, grants or reimbursements which may from time to time
become available to the City of Saco from the State of Maine.”

MEETING ITEM COMMENTARY
AGENDA ITEM: Reconfirm the authority to apply tax payments to the oldest
outstanding tax.
COUNCIL RESOURCE: Councilor David Tripp
STAFF RESOURCE: Cheryl Fournier, Finance Director
BACKGROUND: On October 6, 1986, the City Council approved a tax
collection policy which allowed the Treasurer or the Tax Collector to apply tax payments
received from an individual to the oldest unpaid tax bill first. We would like to reconfirm
the existing policy with the onset of a new tax year.
Tax Collection Policy
The municipal officers of the City of Saco have approved the request of the municipal
treasurer and the tax collector that any tax payment received from an individual as
payment for any property tax, personal property, and sewer user fees be applied against
outstanding or delinquent taxes due on that property in chronological order beginning
with the oldest unpaid tax bill. Taxes may not be applied to a period for which abatement
request or appeal has not been resolved unless approved in writing by the taxpayer. Also,
on the 30-day lien notice or 45-30 day foreclosure notice, a statement will be added
indicating the City’s tax collection policy.
The Council discussed this item at Workshop on April 1 and 16, 2013. The Public
Hearing was May 6, 2013.
RECOMMENDATION: City staff recommends that the City Council approve the
tax collection policy pursuant to 36 MRSA Section 906.
SUGGESTED MOTION: “Be it Ordered that the City Council accept the tax
collection policy as presented pursuant to 36 MRSA Section 906.”
“I move to approve the Order”.

MEETING ITEM COMMENTARY
AGENDA ITEM: Set FY 2014 Property Tax due Dates and Interest Rates
COUNCIL RESOURCE: Councilor Marie Doucette
STAFF RESOURCE: Cheryl Fournier, Finance Director
BACKGROUND: Title 36, MRSA, Section 505 provides that a municipality
may by vote determine the rate of interest which shall apply to delinquent taxes
committed during the taxable year until those taxes are paid in full. The maximum rate
of interest is the highest conventional rate of interest charged for commercial unsecured
loans by Maine banking institutions on the first business day of the calendar year the vote
is taken. The Treasurer of the State of Maine had determined that the maximum rate of
interest than can be charged per Title 36, MRSA, Section 505 (4) for calendar year 2013
is 7.0%. Therefore, for the FY2014 tax commitment, the maximum rate is 7.0%. As a
normal course of business, the City has adopted the maximum rate as its rate. This will
provide incentive for those property owners who are financially able, to pay on time.
Title 36, MRSA, Section 506-A provides that a municipality must establish a rate of
interest for the overpayment of taxes. The rate of interest may not exceed the interest rate
established by the municipality for delinquent taxes reduced by 4% but may not be less
than 8% nor greater than 12%. If a municipality fails to set a rate, it shall pay interest at
the rate of 12%. Therefore, for overpayment of the FY2014 taxes, the rate of interest to
be paid should be set at 8%.
Title 36, MRSA, Section 506 provides that a municipality “…may authorize their tax
collectors or treasurers to accept prepayment of taxes not yet committed and to pay
interest on these prepayments, if any is authorized, at a rate not exceeding 8% per year;
municipalities are not obligated to authorize the payment of interest on taxes prepaid
under this section.” Therefore, we are requesting council authorization to apply any
prepayment of taxes directly to the tax account as they are received without having to pay
interest on these prepayments.
In discussing the due dates with the Tax Collector, we have agreed on the following
dates:
First half due date – August 9, 2013 with interest accruing from August 12,
2013.
Second half due date – February 14, 2014 with interest accruing from February
17, 2013.
Amendment: Expand the EZ Pay program to include businesses for fiscal year
2014. Eight monthly payments starting August 15, 2013 and ending March 15,
2014. Sign up available at City Hall.

The Council discussed this item in Workshop on Apri1 and 16, 2013. The Public Hearing
was May 6, 2013.
RECOMMENDATION: City staff recommends approval.
SUGGESTED MOTION: “Be it Ordered that the City Council set the interest rate
for delinquent FY2014 property taxes at 7.0%, on any refunds of FY2014 tax payments at
8.0%, authorize the tax collector to accept prepayment of taxes not yet committed
without having to pay interest on these prepayments and to establish the due dates for tax
payments as follows:
First half payment – Due Date 08/09/2013 with first interest date of 08/12/2013.
Second half payment – Due Date 02/14/2014 with first interest date of 2/17/2014.

March 14, 2013 Re: Budget for Fiscal-Year 2014 Honorable Mayor Johnston and members of the City Council: I submit to you the fiscal year 2014 (FY14) budget proposal pursuant to Article VI, Financial Procedures of the City Charter, § 6.02 Submission of the Budget, “at the second City Council meeting in March of each year, the City Administrator… shall submit to the City Council their respective sections of the budget for the ensuing fiscal year and the accompanying messages.” Transmitted herewith is the proposed FY14 budget for the City of Saco. This budget recommendation constitutes the essential services level of operating performance required for the City of Saco. Essential services are those services determined to be necessary for the health, safety and desired quality of life of the community and for the effective functioning of city government.
With every challenge comes an opportunity. After many years of being involved in budget processes, I have come to view budgets as an opportunity for an organization to set goals and to work to achieve them. The FY14 budget has been prepared with the objective of no reduction in City services while addressing our infrastructure needs.
The FY14 municipal budget represents a total appropriation level of $23,384,965, which is a 5.46% or $1,210,871 increase from last year’s appropriation of $22,174,094. In March of 2011, I recommended a 4-year plan with 2 financial goals: Unassigned fund balance should be 8.33% of the budget; and Capital Improvement Program should be $2.2 million. We have made significant progress towards these two goals. Capital Improvement - The business standard for maintaining capital assets is a 2% to 3% allocation of annual expenditure, of the capital investment. The city audit reports $61,386,343 in capital assets. The current Capital Improvement Budget is 1.5 million or 2.45% to maintain our capital assets.
The city’s auditor reported that for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012, the unassigned fund balance as a percentage of the budget was 9.10%. The FY13 City Council adopted budget included a $1.5 million for the Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The FY14 proposed CIP budget is $1.5 million. The FY14 proposed budget includes an inflationary increase of 2.25% in the property tax levy or $811,874. This amount represents an increase of $0.42 on the $18.30 mil rate from
G:\0001-Legislative-City Council\Meeting and Workshop\2013\Mtg & Wkshp 03 18 2013\Transmittal letter Budget FY14.doc - 1 -
FY13. The financial objective of holding the budget change to an inflationary increase results in level funding of the CIP, $1.5 million in FY14. Fiscal terms and work programs give explanation to the budget. Major change in expenditures and revenues are documented and the city’s debt position is summarized. This budget recommends a continuation of the long-standing practice of using capital leases for replacement of major equipment. My goal of maintaining current service levels are supported by five citizen satisfaction surveys, conducted by the independent research firm Strategic Marketing Services. Consistently, citizens indicate high satisfaction scores with service delivery and report that property taxes are “about right”. In summary, the FY14 Budget:
• Reflects an increase in property tax revenues by 2.25% ($811,874) assuming no change in the RSU’s portion of the property tax;
• Reflects a non-property tax revenue change of 1.08% FY13 $8,387,731 and FY14 $8,478,728;
• Funds a $1,715,400 Capital Improvement Program. The City’s April 1, 2012 property valuation was $1,968,257,265 and is projected to increase by $20 million. In part, the FY13 budget is funded by transfers from other fund accounts primarily $500,000 from the Ambulance Fund and utilization of undesignated fund balance of $500,000, equal to the Assessor’s overlay. The FY14 budget proposes to again draw $400,000 from the Ambulance Fund and decrease the assessors overlay to $500,000. The proposed draw on unassigned fund balance is proposed to decrease from $755,000 to $500,000. The FY14 budget is located at www.sacomaine.org under the link to Finance. The city will publish a summary in the local media indicating the Public Hearing date of May 6, 2013. Sincerely, Richard R. Michaud City Administration

MEETING ITEM COMMENTARY
AGENDA ITEM: Adoption of FY 2013-2014 Water Resource Recovery
Division Budget
COUNCIL RESOURCE: Councilor Les Smith
STAFF RESOURCE: Richard R. Michaud, City Administrator
Cheryl Fournier, Finance Director
BACKGROUND: The FY2012-2013 operating budget was $2,259,758 that
was supported by a sewer user fee rate of $4.50 per unit. At the rate of $4.50 per unit, an
annual average of 100 customers was $360.00 per year.
The FY2013-2014 budget includes an increase in the sewer user fee rate from
$4.50 to $4.56 per unit. At the rate of $4.56 per unit, an annual average of 100 customers
will be $364.39 per year, an increase of 1.3%.
The sewer user fee rate increase for FY2013-2014 represents the increase needed
to cover expenses. In FY2014 there is no use of Fund Balance budgeted. In FY2013-
2014, the Council will consider increasing the sewer user fee rate to $4.56 per unit.
The Council discussed this item at Workshop on April 16, 2013, and again on May 6,
2013.
