  6. State Subsidies as of February 11, 2013 State Subsidies as of February 11, 2013 28

  7. State Subsidies  Governor Corbett proposed the State’s budget on Tuesday, February 5, 2013.  Professional groups are reviewing the proposal and trying to evaluate the impact of the proposal  More information will be learned about the budget over the next several weeks and months to come  Remember that the proposal is complicated in the way that it draws on several different ideas to help fund the proposed additional dollars to fund these programs  We must remain conservative in our approach and how we shows these monies. Nothing is guaranteed! 29

  8. State Subsidies (cont’d)  These things we do know about the PROPOSED budget from Governor Corbett and Perkiomen Valley: There is increased funding for Basic Education Subsidy 1. There is increased funding for Transportation- What 2. does that mean for PV? There is increased funding for PSERS increase- 3. Commitment of state is in proposal There is reduced funding for Special Education 4. There is flat funding for ABG 5. How do these PROPOSED items impact Perkiomen Valley? 30

  9. Conservative approach to subsidy information from governor’s proposal Total State Subsidies shown in Budget as reviewed December 10, 2012: $ 19,006,480 (Not adjusted in January's one page presentation) Currently in budget as of December 10, 2012 ESBE (Basic Education Subsidy) $ 5,577,546 Tranpsortation (Pub and Non ‐ pub) 2,270,000 Spec ED 2,030,000 FICA 1,646,239 $ 11,523,785 Per Governor's budget presentation February 5, 2013 ESBE (Basic Education Subsidy) $ 5,817,134 $ 239,588 Tranpsortation (Pub and Non ‐ pub) 2,270,000 Spec ED 2,009,872 (20,128) FICA 1,646,239 $ 11,743,245 Projected difference Prelim Budget vs. State Budget $ 219,460 $ 219,460 Estimated Impact in dollars $ 19,225,940 Net increase budget to budget of 1.15% 31

  10. If Governor’s proposal on PSERS is passed as presented then… PSERS Retirement change impact Total Expenditures for PSERS at 16.93% 7,661,073 Total Expenditures for PSERS at 14.68% 6,642,915 Total GROSS expenditure reduction 1,018,158 NET LOSS from half Revenue 509,079 Net impact on Deficit (509,079) The proposal would help to decrease deficit. It has way too many variables to confidently place into consideration so we will take note and wait 32

  11. Adjustments already made to State Subsidies The following adjustments were made to beginning revenue subsidy information in November 2012 presentation: 1. Fica Subsidy (driven by Payroll) $ 40,152 2. Retirement Subsidy (driven by Payroll) $1,485,000 3. Transportation Subsidy (reduce) ($ 210,000) 4. Rental Reimbursement (reduce) ($ 160,000) Net adjustments to start with $ 1,155,152 33

  15. Basic Education Subsidy (ESBE)  The Governor’s proposed budget provides for an increase of $239,588 or about 4.3% for this subsidy  This is welcome but may be tied to the accomplishment of other variables not necessarily education related  Budget process will need to be complete but we feel confident this will stay in the final budget Total Proposed ESBE 13-14 $ 5,817,134 Total Budgeted ESBE 12-13 $ 5,577,546 Increase of $ 239,588 37

  16. Basic Education Subsidy (ESBE) ESBE 6,000,000 19.63% over 5 fiscal years. Average increase under Governor Corbett is 1.4% over 3 yrs (Please note 11-12 was Funding study shortfall makeup year for PV) 5,800,000 5,600,000 5,400,000 5,200,000 ESBE 5,000,000 4,800,000 4,600,000 4,400,000 4,200,000 2009-2010 2010-2011 2011-2012 2012-2013 2013-2014 38

  17. Special Education Subsidy  The Governor’s proposed budget shows a reduction of $20,128 or about a 1.0% decline for this subsidy  Budget process will need to be complete but we feel confident this will not be impacted throughout the Commonwealth’s budget process Total Proposed Spec Ed 13-14 $ 2,009,872 Total Budgeted Spec Ed 12-13 $ 2,030,000 Decrease of ($ 20,128) 39

  18. Special Education Subsidy Special Ed 2,150,000 Special Ed Funding has actually decreased by 1.21% over the past five fiscal years 2,100,000 2,050,000 Special Ed 2,000,000 1,950,000 1,900,000 2009-2010 2010-2011 2011-2012 2012-2013 2013-2014 40

  19. FICA Subsidy  The Governor’s proposed budget maintains the Commonwealth’s commitment to fund 50% of this expense back to Pennsylvania School Districts  Funding on this does not depend on budget approval for this fiscal year  Revenue is ultimately driven by Salaries subject to FICA Total Proposed FICA 13-14 $ 1,646,239 Total Budgeted FICA 12-13 $ 1,606,087 Increase of $ 40,152 41

  20. FICA Subsidy FICA 1,700,000 FICA subsidy has increased by 10.36% over the past 5 years as shown This is driven by total salaries subject to FICA 1,650,000 1,600,000 1,550,000 FICA 1,500,000 1,450,000 1,400,000 2009-2010 2010-2011 2011-2012 2012-2013 2013-2014 42

  21. Retirement Subsidy (PSERS base)  The Governor’s proposed budget maintains the Commonwealth’s commitment to fund 50% of this expense back to Pennsylvania School Districts  Funding on this does not depend on state budget approval for this fiscal year (Note some years it has been)  Revenue is ultimately driven by Salaries subject to PSERS and Commonwealth approved employer rate (16.93% for 13-14)  The 2013-14 budget figure was adjusted in February for salary adjustments Total Proposed PSERS 13-14 $ 4,190,961 Total Budgeted PSERS 12-13 $ 2,763,640 Increase of $1,427,321 43

  22. Breaking down the Governor’s proposal for Perkiomen Valley for Retirement  The Governor’s proposed budget is funding the PSERS commitment by 100%  This is being done by honoring the legal requirement and also “tailoring” the collars further to a max 2.5% increase per year  Please remember that the vast majority of the funding increase will go directly towards the employers share of the PSERS mandate (12-13 budget 92% of increase)  Also, consider that we have an offsetting dollar increase to the district’s share of PSERS that is not covered but still subject to the Act 1 Index limits! 44

  23. Retirement Subsidy (PSERS base) PSERS Retirement Increase has been 351% over past 5 years. 4,500,000 Actual Employer Rate in 09-10 was 4.78% and the proposed rate for 13-14 is 16.93% 4,000,000 3,500,000 3,000,000 2,500,000 PSERS 2,000,000 1,500,000 1,000,000 500,000 - 2009-2010 2010-2011 2011-2012 2012-2013 2013-2014 45

  24. Rental Reimbursement  The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania provides a reimbursement for Debt Service expenses to districts that follow the PlanCon process  Perkiomen Valley School District has followed the PlanCon process for all building projects (rates range from 17% to 34% for PV)  Whenever the district has a successful refunding, the Commonwealth also shares in that savings  We have had successful refundings over the past four fiscal years and so our Rental Reimbursement will be reduced 46

  25. Rental Reimbursement Rental Reimbursement 2,000,000 Rental 1,800,000 Reimbursement 1,600,000 1,400,000 1,200,000 1,000,000 800,000 600,000 400,000 200,000 - 2009-2010 2010-2011 2011-2012 2012-2013 2013-2014 Peak year of 2010-2011 includes Final approval of PlanCon J for Schwenksville, MS WEST and HS renovation/Technology wing 47

  44. Expenditure Assumptions from current through 2015 ‐ 16 fiscal • One expenditure will change in a known way from year to year and that is PSERS – PSERS increase from 12.36% to 16.93% (36.97% increase rate to rate only) for 2013 ‐ 14** – PSERS increase from 16.93% to 21.25% (25.52% increase rate to rate only) for 2014 ‐ 15 – PSERS increase from 21.25% to 25.56% (20.28% increase) for 2015 ‐ 16 ** Governor has proposed to change rate with CAPS adjustments 66

  45. PSERS Impact for 13 ‐ 14 (as shown) • The PSERS (Pennsylvania School Employee Retirement System) employer rate is being increased from 12.36% to 16.93% ** • This is a 36.97% increase for budget year 13 ‐ 14 • The total dollar impact on the expenditure side is $2,394,431 INCREASE ** Governor has proposed to change rate with CAPS adjustments 67

  46. PSERS Impact for 13 ‐ 14 (as shown) • The Governor has proposed that there be a “tailored collar” placed onto the PSERS rates capping the increase per year at 2.5% (resulting rate would be 14.68%)** • Previous collar was placed at 4.5% per year increase (rate is at 16.93%) • We will keep the 16.93% until further notice ** Governor has proposed to change rate with CAPS adjustments 68

  47. Debt Service (NEW) • The PV Debt Service was schedule to be $ 10,286,820 for the 2013 ‐ 14 fiscal year ( in December presentation) • We experienced 2 very successful refundings (Series 2013 and Series A of 2013) • The net result is that the district has actually saved $1,298,886 between the two issues 69

  48. Debt Service (NEW) • There were several options to address these savings. – Use all savings during 13 ‐ 14 fiscal budget planning – Use savings to equal 12 ‐ 13 Debt Service expense of $9,602,609 for 13 ‐ 14 – Use savings to equal 14 ‐ 15 Debt Service $9,743,323 – Use savings in any other combination 70

  49. Debt Service (NEW) • Refunding Options ‐ A – Use of all savings from both issues on 13 ‐ 14 budget – Would help to reduce deficit by $1,298,881 – Real problem is that it sets PV up for our own “Fiscal Cliff” as 13 ‐ 14 budget figure would be $8,987,934 – That would create a huge hole in the 14 ‐ 15 budget as payments are scheduled to increase by $775,000 – Finance Committee in agreement not to use in this manner 71

  50. Debt Service (NEW) • Refunding Options ‐ B – Use savings from refundings only to the extent that we maintain the 13 ‐ 14 Debt Service payment at the current 12 ‐ 13 payment $9,602,269 – Remaining savings get placed into Debt Service Fund to offset future expenditures $768,206 – Fixes only one year 13 ‐ 14 and then need to use for 14 ‐ 15 moving forward 72

  51. Debt Service (NEW) • Refunding Options ‐ C – Use savings from refundings to level payments for Debt Service for BOTH the 13 ‐ 14 and 14 ‐ 15 fiscal year at the 14 ‐ 15 fiscal year rate of $9,743,323 – Fixes rate for 2 years for level expenditures – Still adds $543,497 to Debt Service Fund for future uses – The best use of available refunding options and recommended for action in 13 ‐ 14 budget 73

  52. Salary and Benefits adjustments • The Business Office performed a very labor intensive process that compared actuals, budget and forecast projections from 2011 ‐ 12 through 2013 ‐ 14 projected fiscal years • Remember that we always consider our budget process in 3 year increments – Last year’s (11 ‐ 12) results, Current year (12 ‐ 13) and Next year’s (13 ‐ 14) budget 74

  53. Salary and Benefits adjustments • This review of the “True Up” costs has shown that we could reduce our initial 13 ‐ 14 projected expenditures by a combined total of $1,552,340 • Combination of factors go into this figure which include trend being below budget, movement of personnel below anticipated ranges, negotiations and hiring personnel below (or above) set budget amount during year • Results in an adjustment of 2.42% of Salary and Benefits budget 75

  54. Transportation increases  Contract calls for 2% increase overall on all bus runs  Total increase for Transportation is $229,000 which maintains current busing without critical analysis of bus service at this time  Remember that the new agreement created a minimum floor (2%) and maximum ceiling (3%) base on Act 1 Index 76

  55. Increased Tuition for Charter Schools  Charter Schools are basically unfunded mandates for public schools at this time  Total costs are based on PDE 363 (state form) which lists Perkiomen Valley School District Tuition rates at $10,328.07 for Regular Ed and $21,348.49 for Special Ed  There is need to increase due to increased participation (budgeted for 50 in 11-12 now at 74 for 12-13)  Total cost is now over $1.1 million dollars so we need to add a total budget increase of $300,000 to existing budget figure  We are currently reviewing legislation that has changed the base PDE 363 figures and what that impact may be 77

  56. Fees paid to Delinquent Real Estate Tax Collectors (Montgomery County)  Montgomery County is insisting the district pay a 5% commission fee that had been previously waived in the past ($75,000)  District has decided to continue to utilize Portnoff (since 2009) as our collection agent but we are still required to pay a 5% commission fee to the County  We believe Portnoff’s collection rate far exceeds the previous collection rates from the County and this efficiency means quicker turnaround of cash for the district that more than pays for the 5% addition 78

  57. Fees paid to Delinquent Real Estate Tax Collectors (Montgomery County)  Please remember that there is no fee paid to Portnoff from the District for this service  Taxpayers pay the entire cost of this process during their settlements  This is a pure add to our budget with no additional services provided  Challenge in future may happen due to court intervention and/or direction 79

  58. Insurances  The BUXMONT Health Insurance success has been immediate in our first year  We have been provided rates that show no increase which certainly helps considering our trend has been 11% per year over the past couple of years  Our self-funded prescription group SEPaST is also successful with an even rate as well  This is a positive for PV for 13-14 moving forward 80

  59. Other Expenditures to note  Building budgets have been created with a per student allotment and enrollment projections per 9 year survival method information  Standard Cost per pupil for Elementary is $170/student  Standard Cost per pupil for Middle School is $245/student  Standard Cost per pupil for High School is $288/student  The actual rate per pupil remains the same as the 12-13 budget only the enrollment changes 81

  60. Other Expenditures to note  Operations Department is held flat for 13-14 as proposed  We continue to benefit from consortium enterprises in electric, fuel oil, heating oil, natural gas and various supplies through the MCIU  The Operations Department has been reviewed by Mr. Clemmer, Mrs. Hurd and Mr. Weaver and is deemed to be proper in its allotment so there are no recommended changes in expenditures at this time 82

  61. Other Expenditures to note  Technology Department continues to look at different ways to look at the technology needs of the district  Important projects being discussed continue to be wireless (functionality and efficiency), service and maintaining and upgrading computers throughout the district  Funding and staffing are key elements to this conversation  Technology has been held even 12-13 = 13-14  Further presentations will help to clarify 83

  62. Other Expenditures to note  Special Education Department continues to review the effectiveness of programs and program alternatives  Careful consideration is being given to current costs and where additional needs may happen  We have taken back various programs back in-house over the past several years for savings  Further presentations will help to clarify 84
