City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 7 To the Honorable Board of Aldermen, Somerville Residents and Business Owners: These are the days we planned for. Over the course of a decade-plus, we invested in our quality of life, our kids’ education, and the health and safety of our community, all while grappling with economic downturns, declining state aid and ever-rising fixed costs. As we invested, we also saved. We created new reserve accounts and began building up our savings, but never abandoned our goals to improve our core services and create a model of efficient, effective government. Even in the wake of the Great Recession, we kept putting money into our stabilization fund, bringing our reserve levels to more than $21 million. Despite historic state aid declines that, when adjusted for inflation, equates to more than $42 million lost since 2000, our financial position remains strong and our community is thriving. That prudent planning and conservative budgeting has paid off time and time again, but especially so this year. These are the days we planned for, when a historic, unforeseen event out of our control threatens to upend our finances. We endured the snowiest winter on record. More than 110 inches of snow fell, and most of it fell in an extraordinary three-week period. Our snow hauling and removal operations from every street in the city, unparalleled in any other community, ensured that our public safety apparatus could respond in case of an emergency. Those operations did more than clear our routes to work and school. They reduced a very real risk to life. They also overran our snow budget tenfold. Most communities face higher than normal snow budget deficits, but because of our prudent planning and conservative budgeting over the past decade-plus, unlike those communities, we do not have to make cuts to services or to most planned service improvements to fill the gap. The rainy day funds we have steadily saved up will allow us to backfill most of the snow deficit without sacrificing important investments. We will not undertake every initiative we want, but this $211,071,104 budget will continue the targeted improvement to our services, our quality of life, and follow the proven, successful path of efficient and effective government.

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 8 That begins in our schools. For the past two years, Somerville Public Schools has been the best performing urban school district in the Commonwealth for student growth—and is now the only urban district in the top 15 percent of all Massachusetts districts for student growth. These great achievements are possible because of the hard work of our educators, and because we kept making strategic investments in our schools that focused on educating the whole child. Our schools are not factories turning out students prepped to beat tests. They are the beating hearts of our neighborhoods. They are where our families come together and grow, our children learn critical thinking skills, and our community provides support for our children inside the classroom and out. We will not go backward. This year’s budget includes a $2.2 million increase for our schools that meets our contractual obligations and funds positions and programs that were previously supported by grants, while strategically investing more in the health and well-being of each student. The six new full- time positions include an assistant to the Director of Student Services, a psychologist and a board certified behavior analyst. Each of these new staff members directly supports our children’s well-being in school and outside school, so that they can reach their full potential. The classroom is addressed, too, with the addition of a full-time English Language Learner Department Chair, an elementary teacher and an adaptive technology specialist, and positions that were previously grant funded, including a pre-kindergarten teacher and two full-time paraprofessionals, absorbed and paid for through the regular budget. Along with education, public safety remains our foremost duty. Our Police Department is a model for addressing the underlying causes that lead people to enter the criminal justice system, including mental health issues and drug addiction. The department has worked tirelessly in collaboration with our Office of Prevention and the Trauma Response Network in addressing the nationwide opioid epidemic. As part of that, this budget includes full funding for the previously grant-funded Jail Diversion Program’s Clinical Coordinator, helping redirect individuals with mental health and substance abuse issues from the criminal justice system to treatment and support. One of the greatest challenges we face is the regional and national housing affordability crisis. We will further bolster our efforts to combat this crisis through this budget with funding for a universal waitlist for affordable housing opportunities, making it easier for our families and residents to benefit from those opportunities. We will also create a temporary two-year position for a Sustainable Neighborhoods Initiative coordinator, so that the ongoing work of our Sustainable Neighborhoods Working Group to broaden and deepen our affordability efforts is coordinated with City Hall, Beacon Hill and D.C.

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 9 We also face the challenge of climate change, and we must address it on two fronts. It is our duty to do our part at the local level to reduce our contribution to the problem. We must also shore up our resiliency by addressing our aging infrastructure so that we can better weather potential damage from climate change- driven storms. Complementing the work already done by City staff, an additional $150,000 for the Office of Sustainability and Environment will fund a roster of consultants that will help us assess our vulnerability, provide in-depth technical analysis and long-term strategic planning for high priority areas in the city, support community engagement and our climate change task force. We will also offer grants through our new GreenTech Program that will allow us to be first in line for emerging green technologies. And in the Water and Sewer Division, we will add a new engineer and a primary operator, helping us to more quickly repair and replace that infrastructure and reduce the threat of flooding in our neighborhoods and homes. Under its new director, our Recreation Department is reinvigorating the programs and services important to the development of our kids and the health of our community. We will continue to build out that program by adding a new program coordinator to the department, and reassigning a program coordinator who currently splits time between the Recreation Department and ice rinks to the Recreation Department full-time. We have been successful in obtaining grants that have funded positions and programs, but we still face dwindling outside support, including grants that are ending or no longer available. To ensure these needed services continue, this budget moves their funding onto our general operating budget. That includes funding our Shape Up Somerville nutrition coordinator, arts and culture grants through the Somerville Arts Council, and $35,000 to obtain and match a grant from the National Historical Publications and Records Commission to fund a part-time digital archivist, which will allow us to preserve City board and commission meeting minutes online for the public, putting us at the forefront of municipal archives and transparency nationwide. Meanwhile we continue to pursue beneficial collaborations, and this budget will allow us to work with the nonprofit Roca to provide at-risk youth with a hands-on opportunity to transform their lives and gain valuable career skills by working with a dedicated foreman and our Building and Grounds Division while assisting with playground, park and facilities maintenance. Smart, effective and efficient government where departments collaborate and maximize our efforts is possible when we strategically align our resources. We hope to promote even more efficiency through a new administrative code, and this budget includes its first steps. The Council on Aging, Veterans’ Services Department and SomerPromise program would each be moved under the Health and Human Services Department, further improving the referral networking that began last year with the establishment of the Human Services Division and ensuring all residents who need assistance get the support they need. Our Inspectional Services Division that has become a model for efficient management of quality of life issues

Page 13 of 266

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 10 would become a standalone department, and the Weights and Measures Division would be moved under ISD, putting all our inspection services into one unit. Finally, our award-winning 311 Constituent Services Center is one of the main lines of communication between residents and the City, so it will be moved into the Communications and Community Engagement Department, again strategically aligning our services. These are the first steps of an overhauled administrative code, and we hope in the coming year to move our Engineering Division to the Capital Projects Department, establish the Water and Sewer Division as a standalone department, and began discussing how we can lay the groundwork for a Parks and Recreation Department. Many other communities will stand still this coming year, or even face cuts in services and initiatives, as they struggle to fill the gap caused by this winter’s historic storms. Not us. Years of patience are paying off for our community this year and will do so in the years ahead. After a historic winter that has stalled out communities across the Commonwealth, we find ourselves still able to invest in better services, better government and a better quality of life for our residents. A decade of accolades later, we still believe we can do more, and better. And with this budget, we continue to strive for that ideal. Sincerely, Joseph A. Curtatone Mayor

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 19 66% 23% 8% 3% Fiscal Year 2016 Taxes State Aid Local Reciepts Other 54% 36% 6% 4% Fiscal Year 2004 The FY2016 General Fund Municipal Appropriation for the Operating Budget is $195,959,717 and was submitted to the Board of Aldermen for approval on June 4, 2015. Below are explanations and details concerning the FY2016 revenue collection assumptions and spending appropriations. Following the appropriations overview, each department’s detailed budget is presented along with performance highlights and goals. REVENUE INTRODUCTION The following is a summary of major revenue sources to the City budget, including highlights of significant changes. The operating budget is financed with funds generated from property taxes, local motor vehicle excise taxes, local option meals tax, local option hotel/motel excise tax, state aid, transfers from other local sources, investment earnings, and other local fees and charges. Taxes account for approximately 66% of the City’s revenue base, State Aid approximately 23%, local receipts 8%, and other funding sources 3%. The amount of State Aid allocated to Somerville has declined precipitously over the last several years. This has forced the City to raise more revenue through local receipts—fines, permits, fees, etc. Additionally, it has forced the City to rely very heavily on the property tax to fund city services. Below is a graphic showing Somerville’s FY2016 revenue composition as compared to the revenue composition twelve years earlier.

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 20 REVENUE ASSUMPTIONS AND PROJECTIONS The City’s policy is to budget revenues conservatively. Revenue projections for FY2016 are based on FY2013 and FY2014 actual collections, FY2015 projected collections, other historical trends, and anticipated changes that impact the particular revenue source. 1. TAXES FY2016 tax revenues are projected to be $138,336,827. The components of this revenue category are Property Taxes (real estate and personal property), Motor Vehicle Excise, Local Option Room and Meals, Urban Excise Tax Agreements, and Payments In Lieu of Taxes. As noted earlier, 66% of the operating budget is funded from this revenue category. Real Estate and Personal Property Taxes The property tax levy is the City’s largest and most dependable source of revenue. Within the tax category, real and personal property taxes are the largest at $129,012,860 and represent 61.1% of the total general fund operating revenues. Real and personal property taxes are based on values assessed as of January 1 each year. By law, all taxable property must be assessed at 100% of fair cash value and property taxes must be levied at least 30 days prior to their due date. Once levied, these taxes are recorded as receivables, net of estimated uncollectible balances. Property taxes that remain unpaid after the respective due dates are subject to penalties and interest charges. The City successfully completed a state mandated valuation process of all property values in FY2014. Ordinarily, the State requires a tri-annual revaluation but requested the last revaluation be conducted over a four year period. The City is required to perform a statistical validation in the interim years to ensure that it maintains fair market values. Based on the City’s experience, most property taxes (approximately 99%) are collected during the year in which they are assessed. The lien of properties on which taxes remain unpaid occurs annually. The City ultimately has the right to foreclose on all properties where the taxes remain unpaid. The total property tax levy is impacted by Proposition 2½, which was voted into state law in 1980. Proposition 2½ limits the property tax levy in a city or town to no more than 2.5% of the total fair market value of all taxable real and personal property. In addition, it limits the total property tax levy increase to no more than 2.5% over the prior year’s total levy limit plus new construction, known as “new growth”. The City has promoted economic development over the past several years to generate new growth. These efforts have been fruitful. In FY2015, a total of $4.0 million dollars was generated in new growth, the highest Taxes 66% Penalties & Interest on Taxes 0% State Aid 23% Fines & Forfeits 3% Licenses & Permits 4% Fees 0% Misc Recurring 1% Other Revenue Sources 3% FY2016 Revenue by Source

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 21 in over a decade, much of this from the Assembly Square Project. The projected value of new growth for FY2016 is $2.9 million. The City adopted an innovative financing tool known as District Improvement Financing (DIF) to fund infrastructure improvements in the Assembly Square Area, which in turn helped to stimulate new business development. For FY2016, the Chief Assessor predicts that the DIF will generate an additional $1,316,642 in tax dollars net of debt service for infrastructure improvements. These additional tax dollars are built into the real estate taxes projection for FY2016. Motor Vehicle Excise Tax Motor vehicle excise taxes are assessed annually for each vehicle registered in the City and are recorded as receivables in the fiscal year of the levy. The Commonwealth is responsible for reporting the number of vehicles registered and the fair values of those vehicles. The tax calculation is the fair value of the vehicle multiplied by $25 per $1,000 of value. The allowance for uncollectibles is estimated based on historical trends and specific account analysis. With the rebound in car markets and the accompanying increase in the sale of new cars, the estimated Motor Vehicle Excise increased by $50,000. Hotel/Motel Excise Taxes A city or town may impose a local excise of up to 6% on the rental of rooms in hotels, motels, lodging houses and bed and breakfast establishments. The local excise applies to all room occupancies subject to the state room occupancy excise. Local Hotel/Motel excise tax revenues are collected by the State and distributed to the cities and towns on a quarterly basis. Hotel/Motel tax revenues of $977,158 are included in the FY2016 Budget, which is an increase of 38.8%. The projection is based on the last four quarters of actual revenues received at the time of the preparation of this budget—from April 2014 to April 2015. Local Option Meals Excise In August of 2009 the State legislature allowed cities and towns to add a .75% local option excise to the state’s 6.25% meals tax. The Local Option Meal Excise is expected to increase to $1,602,237, an increase of 11.5%. A significant amount of new restaurants have opened in Assembly Square over the past year and are enjoying great success. The restaurant sector base continues to grow and we expect this revenue source to show strong growth for the city now and into the foreseeable future. The budget is based on the most recent four quarters of actual collections from April 2014 to April 2015 and projected revenue sales from the new restaurants. Payments in Lieu of Taxes The largest participant in the City’s Payment In Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) program is now Partners Healthcare with the development of a new administrative headquarters located in Assembly Square. The new building has broken ground and the City will receive the first PILOT payment from Partners this year at a prorated amount. Tufts University remains a large contributor at $275,000. A total of $200,000 of the $275,000 is budgeted as a revenue source for the Operating Budget; a total of $75,000 is budgeted in a gift account for educational, recreational, and cultural uses. The remaining $80,000 is generally made up of payments from private non- profit social service agencies. The total FY2015 budgeted PILOT amount is $819,572, a 192% increase from FY2014. 2. PENALTIES AND DELINQUENT INTEREST The City receives interest and penalties on overdue taxes and excise taxes. This revenue is budgeted at $855,630 in FY2016 based on projected FY2015 revenues and reflects no increase. The City will continue to emphasize collection of outstanding real estate, personal property and excise taxes. These revenues are budgeted conservatively since there is great volatility from year to year in these revenues, based on the number of outstanding accounts.

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 22 3. LICENSES AND PERMITS The City issues over 50 types of licenses and permits. Most are business or construction related. Licenses and Permits are primarily issued by the Inspectional Services Department, the Licensing Commission, and the City Clerk. Estimated FY2016 License and Permit revenue totals $9,059,823. The largest revenue source in this category is building permits, which is budgeted at $4,541,000 in FY2016. This is $702,340 more than the amount budgeted in FY2015 and is based on the planned development at Assembly Square and other areas of the city. Residential Parking Permits are budgeted at $2,182,793, which is $586,793 more than in FY2015 due mainly to changes in the costs associated with residential parking permits. 4. FINES AND FORFEITS Budgeted FY2016 revenue from Fines and Forfeits totals $5,810,229 from 13 different categories. Some fine revenue is distributed to the City by the State (Moving Violations, Court Fines) but most result from violations of city ordinances. The largest revenue source for this category is parking fines, which totals $4,900,000, a decrease of $287,507 (5.5%) from FY2015 budgeted revenues. The cause of the decrease in parking fine revenues is two-fold. First, with increased enforcement there has been greater compliance with parking regulations. Second, the City recently installed new parking meter kiosks that accept credit card payments and the ParkMobile app. As methods of payment become more convenient the number of violations issued is decreasing. 5. FEES By law, fee levels cannot exceed the cost of delivering the service. The cost includes both direct service and administrative costs. The “Fees” category totals $1,261,796, or less than 1% of all operating revenues. With the closure of the waste transfer station two years ago, the city has been missing $250,000 in royalty fees that it previously collected as well as $240,000 in rental income. 6. STATE AID The Estimated FY2016 State Aid amount totals $48,032,158 broken down as follows: $44,484,181 from the State Cherry Sheet and $3,547,977 as reimbursement from School Building Assistance Bureau (SBAB) funds. Named for the cherry colored paper on which it was originally printed, the Cherry Sheet is the official notification from the Commissioner of Revenue of the next fiscal year’s state aid and assessments to communities and regional school districts. State aid to municipalities and regional school districts consists of two major types – distributions and reimbursements. Distributions provide funds based on formulas, while reimbursements provide funds for costs incurred during a prior period for certain programs or services. In addition, communities may receive “offset items” which must be spent on specific programs. Cherry Sheet Assessments are advance estimates of state assessments and charges and county tax assessments. Local assessors are required to use these figures in setting the local tax rate. Local aid refers primarily to distributions from the Commonwealth to municipal general revenue for Chapter 70 education aid and Unrestricted General Government Aid. The amount of these funds to be distributed is listed on each community’s Cherry Sheet along with other, relatively smaller, Commonwealth programs such as library aid, veteran’s benefits, police career incentive, school lunch and other reimbursements. School building reimbursements, which were once part of the Cherry Sheet, were removed when a new authority (School Building Authority) was created to administer the program under the control of the State Treasurer’s Office.

Page 26 of 266

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 23 The City anticipates $3,547,977 in School Building Authority funds as reimbursement for the construction of the Kennedy, Healey, West Somerville Neighborhood, and Capuano Schools. Net State Aid is the difference between Cherry Sheet revenue and State Assessments charged against the City. Since FY2002, the City’s net State Aid has been cut almost in half from $57 million in FY2002 to $31.1 million in FY2015. 7. MISCELLANOUS RECURRING AND OTHER REVENUE SOURCES These categories include reimbursements from vendors, Medicaid, and Medicare Part D Drug Reimbursement; recycling, rental income, settlement of claims, indirect cost reimbursements from Enterprise Funds, interest earnings, and reserves appropriated to balance the budget. Miscellaneous and Other Revenue categories total $7,714,641for FY2016. Interest Earnings Throughout the year, the City has temporarily available operating cash balances allowed by state law to be invested in money market accounts or investments with a maximum term of one year. The return from these accounts is subject to the prevailing short-term interest rates. This revenue source has been subject to considerable volatility in the past several years. Interest on investments of $200,000 has been included in the FY2016 Budget, which is the same as last year.

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 25 THE ROLE OF CITY OFFICIALS As required by Massachusetts General Law, Chapter 44, Section 32, the Mayor must submit to the Board of Aldermen within 170 days after the annual organization of the city government an annual budget which shall be a statement of the amounts recommended for proposed expenditures of the city for the next fiscal year. The annual budget shall be classified and designated so as to show separately with respect to each officer, department or undertaking for which an appropriation is recommended:— (a) salaries and wages of officers, officials and employees other than laborers or persons performing the duties of laborers; and (b) ordinary maintenance not included under and which shall also include debt and interest charges matured and maturing during the next fiscal year, (c) proposed expenditures for other than ordinary maintenance, which includes special items and departmental capital. The Board of Aldermen votes an appropriation for each Prime Account (Personal Service, Ordinary Maintenance, Special Items, and Capital Outlay) in each City Department. The Board of Aldermen may by majority vote reduce or reject any amount recommended in the annual budget. The School Committee votes an annual budget and submits the budget to the Mayor and the Board of Aldermen. The School Budget is included in the overall annual budget submission to the Board of Aldermen. The Mayor and the Board of Aldermen may reduce the bottom-line School Department budget but have no authority to reduce individual line items. State Assessments and Overlay Reserve are not appropriated. The legal appropriation order does not include these items. The budget presentation includes these items to provide a complete picture of all sources and expenditures of the General Fund.

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 129 MISSION STATEMENT: To ensure the safety of residents and community members by enforcing all laws and regulations pertaining to building construction and health. ISD provides residents and community members with consistent and high quality education; local, state and federal code enforcement; emergency services and support to improve the health and safety in the City of Somerville. ACCOUNT FY2014 ACTUAL FY2015 BUDGETED FY2016 PROPOSED % CHANGE Personal Services 1,325,600 1,635,046 1,804,836 10.4% Ordinary Maintenance 226,188 316,093 294,431 -6.9% General Fund Expenditures 1,551,788 1,951,139 2,099,267 7.6% CHANGES BETWEEN FY2015 & FY2016:  A New Building Inspector has been included in the FY16 budget. This position will increase flexibility for ISD during an anticipated period of sustained growth and residential desirability. It will also shore- up internal capacity to ensure prompt and effective service.  Inspectional Services will become a standalone department beginning in FY16. Due to an increase in the workload and significant growth in the city, ISD now manages critical revenue sources and a larger staff. Additionally, the divergence from the core mission of OSPCD into an oversight and compliance role necessitates a direct report to the Mayor’s office to plan for a sustainable Somerville. Finally, this change will result in a consolidation of services with the incorporation of Weights & Measures into the purview of ISD. This consolidation of services will make the ISD department more effective and efficient and improve customer service. FY2015 ACCOMPLISHMENTS:  Electronic permitting and code enforcement system (CitizenServe): o All construction permits, health licenses, complaints and code enforcement activities are now recorded and updated in an electronic file by property address. o Continue to modify and improve this integrated online system. o Greater office efficiencies, accountability and sophisticated data reporting  Customer service/ISD office improvements: o Customers can now apply for construction permits and renew health licenses from home. o Credit card and electronic fund transfer (EFT) payment now available 24/7.  Health Division improvements: o Added full-time food inspector to meet increased demand for services.  Building Division improvements: o Added full-time plumbing & gas inspector to meet increased demand for services. o Added zoning review planner to create more efficient workflow for permitting.  NIT Team: o Law Department paralegal working with ISD to streamline and standardize court cases (civil and criminal) for properties with unresolved code violations.

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 229 This allotment is to finance the debt service on all City bonds with the exception of Water, Sewer, and Ice Rink Enterprise debt issues. Funds to cover Enterprise debt service are included in the respective Enterprise Fund Budgets. Funds budgeted in the cost codes below cover debt on a wide variety of projects, including Schools, equipment, street improvements, renovations to public buildings, and improvements to the City’s many recreational facilities. In March, 2014, Standard & Poor’s conducted a credit review and upgraded the City’s rating two notches to AA+, the highest rating in City history and one notch shy of AAA. The City rating from Moody’s, which was last reviewed in October 2013, is AA2, also the highest rating in City history. Both rating agencies cite the City’s “strong budget performance”, “strong reserves” and “ongoing redevelopment efforts”. PRINCIPAL ON LONG TERM DEBT This allotment covers the cost of principal payments on the City’s existing bonded debt with the exception of Enterprise debt service, which is included in their respective budgets. INTEREST The interest the City pays on Bond Anticipation Notes and bond issues is determined primarily by market conditions, the City’s credit rating, the maturity schedule of the issue, and the supply of bonds at the time of the issue. The overall market interest rates have remained near historic lows for some time, and coupled with the City’s strong credit rating have benefited the City with very favorable rates.

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 230 The Cherry Sheet is a form showing all state and county charges assessed against the City, as certified by the state director of accounts. The figures shown here are based on the latest version of the FY2016 Cherry Sheet. RETIRED EMPLOYEE HEALTH INSURANCE: This item is intended to reimburse the state for the costs of providing a health insurance plan for governmental retirees who were pensioned prior to the implementation of Chapter 32B by their local governmental unit. Chapter 32B enabled municipalities to establish a mechanism for group insurance for retirees. Each participating municipality is assessed for the governmental share of health insurance premiums paid on behalf of its retirees by the state. The state pays 90 percent of the total premium; the retiree's co-payment is 10 percent of the total premium as well as full payment for catastrophic illness coverage. A proportionate share of administrative expenses is also assessed to each municipality. AIR POLLUTION CONTROL: The Department of Environmental Protection supervises six districts statewide. The Metropolitan Boston Control District, of which Somerville is a member, has a staff of 35 pollution inspectors. The Commission is empowered through the Office of the Governor and has a mandate to control air pollution through the enforcement of the Metropolitan Boston Air Pollution Control Acts. METROPOLITAN AREA PLANNING COUNCIL: Assessments are made to municipalities to finance the Metropolitan Area Planning Council (MAPC), which serves 101 communities. The MAPC promotes urban planning, regional collaboration and responds to common urban problems of member communities. MBTA: The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) provides bus/minibus, trackless trolley and underground subway transportation across the city. The MBTA is composed of 175 communities: the 14 original member communities of the Metropolitan Transit Authority and 161 additional communities that are receiving MBTA service. The MBTA is required to assess each community‘s share of the overall assessment. All communities associated with the Authority must contribute to the MBTA State and Local Assistance Fund an amount not less than $136,026,868. Beginning in FY07, this amount is adjusted each July 1 by the rate of inflation unless the total assessment exceeds 102.5 percent of the previous year‘s assessment. An individual community's assessment is determined based on the following formula: each community‘s assessment shall equal its weighted share of the total population of the 175 communities in the MBTA. Chapter 161A of the Acts of 2000, which increased the number of communities in the MBTA from 78 to 175, also determined the share for each community in conjunction with the 2000 U.S. Census. A portion of the total MBTA assessment supports the Boston District Commission (the District), which is responsible for bonds issued by the Transportation Authority prior to the creation of the Metropolitan Transit Authority in 1947. This assessment pays for administrative costs incurred by the District and is charged to the 14 cities and towns of the Boston Metropolitan District in proportion to their share of the District’s total equalized valuation. The MBTA covers the District‘s debt service costs. REGISTRY OF MOTOR VEHICLES-HOLD PROGRAM: Since February 1985, the Parking Violations Bureau has implemented a provision of Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 90, which enables the City to request that the state Registry of Motor Vehicles not renew the license and registration of an operator/owner of a motor vehicle who has two or more outstanding parking tickets. This provision is imposed after the motorist has

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 231 failed to pay the parking tickets and had an opportunity for a hearing. This program has resulted in a significant decrease in the number of delinquent payments. EDUCATION: The primary component of this allocation is the Charter School Sending Tuition assessment which is the amount charged for Somerville students who attend charter schools. The amount is based on the number of students, multiplied by the tuition rate of the charter school as calculated by the state, using a tuition formula. The other assessments contained in this allotment are for grandfathered costs for special education services (Chapter 766 of the Acts of 1972) provided by other districts for students who are state wards who reside in Somerville, and school choice tuition charges (Chapter 71 of the Acts of 1993), which are for Somerville residents attending another school district under school choice.

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 232 This budget organization provides a centralized cost center for several employee and retiree benefits. HEALTH INSURANCE: The City participates in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Group Insurance Commission (GIC). The GIC offers a number of health maintenance (HMO), preferred provider (PPO), and indemnity health plan options to employees and retirees delivered through Tufts Health Plan, Harvard Pilgrim, and Unicare. Beginning in FY16, the City funds 80% of the premium costs for HMO and PPO plans and 75% of the premium costs for indemnity plans; the subscribers contribute 20% and 25% respectively. The budgetary item is the City’s share of health insurance costs and does not represent the full cost of health insurance. The full cost of health insurance is financed through a combination of city appropriations, employee and retiree contributions, grant reimbursements, and reserves from the Health Claims Trust Fund. In FY 2015, the City will tap all of these sources to meet its obligation to fund health insurance. MEDICARE PAYROLL TAX: Pursuant to federal law, all employees hired after April 1, 1986 are subject to a 1.45% payroll tax to pay for future Medicare coverage. The City is obligated to match this 1.45% payment. LIFE INSURANCE: Employees can elect to enroll in a $5,000 life insurance policy offered through Boston Mutual Life Insurance where the City contributes half the cost of the premium. Additional life insurance can be purchased at the employees’ expense.

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 236 The Somerville Retirement System is one of 105 contributory retirement systems for public employees in Massachusetts. A Retirement Board governs each system, and all boards, although operating independently, are bound together under one Retirement Law –Chapter 32 of the Massachusetts General Laws. Chapter 32 establishes benefits, contribution requirements, and an accounting and funds structure for all systems. The Somerville Retirement Board is the Administrator of the Somerville Retirement System. The Public Employee Retirement Administration Commission (PERAC) is the state regulatory authority that oversees all retirement systems in the Commonwealth. PERAC is required by Chapter 32 to oversee an actuarial valuation of each retirement system every three years. Actuarial funding determines the annual cost to fund a retirement system’s cost of benefits that accrue during the current year (normal cost) as well as the costs associated with any past service liability (unfunded actuarial accrued liability). The funding schedule derived from the actuarial valuation determines the series of payments to pay the annual normal cost as well as to amortize the unfunded accrued liability over a period of years. In accordance with Chapter 32, each retirement system’s unfunded accrued liability must be fully paid off by 2040. The City is required to pay into the Retirement System the actuarially determined contribution. The budgeted appropriation is the actuarially determined contribution for FY2015. The Non-Contributory Pension Appropriation funds the pension costs for city retirees predating the adoption of Chapter 32 and for special situations requiring home-rule exemption from Chapter 32.

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 239 Enterprise Funds are funds established to account for operations that are financed and operated in a manner similar to private business enterprises. The intent is that the full cost of providing the goods or services be financed primarily through charges and fees thus removing the expenses from the tax rate. Section 53F 1/2 of Chapter 44 of the Massachusetts General Laws dictates the use of Enterprise Funds for cities within the Commonwealth. The City maintains four Enterprise Funds: one for the Sewer Division of Public Works, one for the Water Division of Public Works, one for the Veteran’s Memorial Ice Rink, and one for the Dilboy Athletic Complex. Enterprise operations are supported primarily by charges for services received. Funds raised from charges are dedicated to the specific purpose of the enterprise operation, and cannot be diverted to other unrelated uses. The concept of an enterprise operation also includes the maintenance of the capital facilities of the business. That is, fees for services are charged to recover not only the operating costs of the activity but also the “using up” (depreciation) of the capital investments supporting the service. Advantages of an enterprise fund include that it: 1. Identifies a total service cost – Consolidating direct operating, direct capital, and indirect costs (e.g., enterprise-related costs appropriated in the General Fund operating budget) helps a community to readily identify a total service cost and determine funding sources. The total service cost may also include a subsidy from the General or other fund, or a reimbursement from the enterprise fund to other funds for subsidized costs incurred in the two full, immediately prior fiscal years. 2. Provides useful management information – Consolidating revenues, expenses and operating performance of the fund provides a community with useful decision making information regarding user charges and fees and a subsidy if necessary. The community can also include the enterprise fixed assets and infrastructure as assets and recognize the annual depreciation of these assets in audited financial statements. 3. Retains investment income and surplus – All investment earnings and any operating surplus (actual revenues in excess of estimates and appropriations in excess of expenses) are retained in the enterprise fund rather than closed to the General Fund at fiscal year-end. Surplus certified by the Director of Accounts as available is called “retained earnings”. Retained earnings require appropriation by the community’s legislative body and have certain other use restrictions.

A Primary Operator is required to give responsible, technical advice and oversee the technical aspects of the City’s water distribution system. These duties are currently performed on a contractual part- time basis; however DEP is requiring that the City have a full-time primary operator.  A new full-time water engineer has been included in the FY16 budget to support the significant infrastructure needs of the city. This position will work closely between the Water, Engineering, and Capital Planning departments.  Differences in salaries are due to negotiated collective bargaining agreements and merit increases for non-union salaries based on annual performance reviews as outlined by the Collins Center guidelines.

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 254 A departmental revolving fund is a place to set aside revenue received, through fees and charges, for providing a specific service or program. The revenue pool is, in turn, a source of funds available to use by a department without further appropriation to support the particular service or program. Most frequently, cities and towns create general departmental revolving funds under M.G.L. Ch. 44 Sec. 53E½. The fund is created with an initial Board of Aldermen authorization that identifies which department’s receipts are to be credited to the revolving fund and specifies the program or purposes for which money may be spent. It designates the department, board or official with authority to expend the funds and places a limit on the total amount of the annual expenditure. To continue the revolving fund in subsequent years, annual approval of a similar article is necessary. Managers are also required, each year, to report on the fund and program activities. Under Sec. 53E½, any expenditure from a revolving fund is restricted to the then current fund balance or to the authorized spending limit. If a revolving fund balance remains after total spending has reached the authorized limit, the balance carries over to the next fiscal year. Interest that accrues on a revolving fund balance under Sec. 53E½ reverts to the general fund. However, if the revolving fund is not reauthorized, any remaining balance closes to free cash, unless it is transferred by the legislative body to another revolving fund.

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 255 FUNDING SOURCE: The Cable Telecommunications Revolving Fund is funded by cable franchise fees provided to the City of Somerville as provided by the Cable Franchise Agreements with RCN and Comcast as stipulated by the federal Cable Communications Policy Act. ESTABLISHED PURPOSE: Payment of salaries, professional and technical services, and equipment for the following purposes: Program and administer the City’s two municipal cable television channels; regulate the license agreements with COMCAST and RCN; promote and support city events; communicate information to the public about city programs, services, and events, via print and electronic media; design and maintain the City’s website for public information purposes. RECEIPTS CREDITED: Cable Franchise Fees AUTHORIZED OFFICER: Director of Communications FY2016 NOTES:  WEBSITE CARRY-FORWARD: This budget includes $98,433 being carried forward within the Professional and Technical line from FY2015 for a full redesign of the City website. This $98,433 does not represent new spending for the coming fiscal year, but rather funds that were encumbered as part of the FY15 budget for work to be completed in FY16 as designated by signed contracts with our three website redesign vendors, all three of which have already commenced work. The website redesign aims, among other needed updates, to ensure ADA accessibility, improve access to information, and ensure usability on mobile devices.  CHANGES: o The 2.55% increase in personal services is due to merit increases for non‐union salaries based on annual performance reviews as outlined by the Collins Center guidelines as well as increases to fringe benefits costs. o The 60% increase to Repairs & Maintenance reflect planned upgrades to City Cable equipment used for the Aldermanic Chambers as well as required upgrades to the City’s signal aggregation system to meet new technical broadcast standards. o Overall, the FY16 budget is .82% less than in FY15 mainly due to a reduction in Professional and Technical expenses.

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 257 The Community Preservation Act (CPA) Fund was established after the voters of Somerville overwhelmingly adopted the CPA (M.G.L. Ch. 44b) in November 2012. The CPA creates a dedicated funding source for the City to invest in historic preservation, affordable housing, and open space and recreation projects. Key annual revenue sources for the Fund include a 1.5% surcharge on net property taxes, discretionary appropriations into the Fund by the City, and matching funds from the state. State matching funds are distributed in November of each year and match total local funding (surcharge revenue and City appropriation) for the previous fiscal year. Somerville will receive its second distribution in FY16, which will match FY15 local revenue. If approved, the request submitted to the Board of Aldermen to appropriate $1,200,000 into the CPA Fund in FY15 will nearly double the matching funds the City receives from the state in November. The Community Preservation Committee is responsible for implementing the CPA in Somerville, by working with the community to establish priorities for how CPA funding should be spent and making recommendations to the Board of Aldermen for specific projects to receive funding. The Committee also submits an annual budget to the Board of Aldermen which is determined in large part by the enabling state CPA legislation. In particular, the legislation allows communities to devote up to 5% of estimated annual CPA revenue to the administrative and operating expenses of the Committee and requires communities to devote 10% of estimated annual CPA revenue to each of historic resources, affordable housing, and open space and recreation. FY2015 ACCOMPLISHMENTS:  Leveraged City appropriation into the CPA Fund to more than double state matching funds.  Created a Community Preservation Plan to guide the City’s investment of CPA funds.  Allocated 45% of FY2014 & FY2015 CPA funds – over $2.2 million – to the Affordable Housing Trust to devote to CPA-eligible projects and programs, leveraging the Trust’s 25 years of experience supporting affordable housing.  Established a competitive application process for awarding CPA funds to historic resources and open space and recreation projects.  Engaged the community in awarding CPA funds by holding two public meetings and accepting written comments for nearly two months, ultimately hearing from nearly 150 residents.  Awarded $1.7 million to nine historic resources projects.  Awarded $227,000 to four open space/recreation projects and reserved an additional $508,000 for future projects.  Funded and oversaw the development of Somerville’s first-ever Historic Preservation Plan (in progress) to guide the allocation of CPA funding for historic resources in future funding cycles, utilizing over 500 hours of skilled volunteer time in the process.

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 259 TERMS COMMONLY USED IN MUNICIPAL FINANCE Abatement: A complete or partial cancellation of a levy imposed by a governmental unit; applicable to tax levies and special assessments. Accrual Basis: In the context of accounting, practice in which expenses and income are accounted for as they are earned or incurred, whether or not they have been received or paid. Appropriation: An authorization granted by a legislative body to make expenditures and to incur obligations for specific purposes. An appropriation is usually limited in amount and the time when it may be expended. Only a vote of the Board of Aldermen can authorize money appropriated for one purpose to be used for another. Any amount which is appropriated may be encumbered. Any part of the general appropriation not spent or encumbered by June 30 automatically reverts to surplus. A specific or particular appropriation is carried forward from year to year until spent for the designated purpose or transferred by Aldermanic vote to another account. Assessed Valuation: The value placed upon a particular property by the local Board of Assessors for the purpose of apportioning the City's tax levy among individual property owners equitably and in accordance with the legal requirement that property be assessed at "full and fair cash value," certified periodically by the Commonwealth's Commissioner of Revenue (no less frequently than once every three years). Audit: Work done by accountants in examining financial reports, reviewing compliance with applicable laws and regulations, reviewing efficiency and economy of operations, and reviewing effectiveness in achieving program results. A basic audit examines only the financial reports and legal compliance. An outside Certified Public Accountant (CPA) audit is directed primarily toward the expression of an opinion as to the fairness of the financial statements and submission of a management letter. An auditor must be independent of the executive branch of government. A state auditor, private CPA, or public accountant, or elected auditor meets this test. Balance Sheet: A statement which discloses the assets, liabilities, reserves, and equities of a fund or government unit at a specified date. Balanced Budget: A plan of financial operation in which the estimate of proposed expenditures for a given period is less than or equal to the proposed means of financing these expenditures (from various sources of funds or revenues). Budget: A plan of financial operation embodying an estimate of proposed expenditures for a given period (usually a 12-month period referred to as the Fiscal Year, or FY) and the proposed means of financing them. A budget may be preliminary (the financial plan presented to the Board of Aldermen) or final (the plan approved by that body). Capital Improvement Plan (or Capital Budget): A plan of proposed capital outlays, and the means of financing them for the current fiscal period. It is usually a part of the current budget but may also be a multi-year plan. Capital Improvement: A major, non-recurring expenditure involving one of the following: a. Real Property - Includes the purchase or lease of land, existing buildings and structures, and fixtures attached to land and buildings.

Page 263 of 266

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 260 b. Equipment - Includes the replacement or addition of major items of equipment with a life expectancy of at least two years and a cost of at least $10,000. Similar items can be bundled together. c. Projects - Include activities such as the following: 1. Construction of new buildings or facilities (including architectural, engineering, and related fees). 2. Improvements or major repairs (costing $50,000 or more) of existing buildings or facilities, aside from routine maintenance. 3. Studies or other activities (costing $50,000 or more) that either relate to future “brick and mortar” projects, or are a part of a multi-year program of infrastructure improvements. 4. An annual sum available for routine building improvements, renovations, or repairs. Cherry Sheet: An annual statement received from the Massachusetts Department of Revenue (DOR) detailing estimated receipts for the next fiscal year from the various state aid accounts, and estimated state and county government charges payable by the City, and included by the local Assessors in setting the tax rate. The actual receipts and charges may vary from the estimates. Classification: The division of property valuations by type of property. There are five classes: Residential, Open Space, Commercial, Industrial, and Personal. The Aldermen may set as many as three different tax rates (within limits set forth in state law): for residences, for business and personal, and for open space. Debt Service: Payment of interest and principal related to long-term debt. Depreciation: A non-cash expense (also known as non-cash charge) that provides a source of available funds. Amount allocated during the period to amortize the cost of acquiring long-term assets over the useful life of the assets. This is an accounting expense not a real expense that demands cash. Encumbrance: Obligations such as purchase orders, contracts, or salary commitments that are chargeable to an appropriation, and for which a part of the appropriation is reserved. Enterprise Fund: A fiscal entity with a self-balancing set of accounts that is utilized to account for a governmental service when it is the intent to recover the total cost of service, including depreciation, primarily through user charges imposed on the consumers of the service. Examples include: Water and Sewer services provided by the Department of Public Works. Equalized Valuation (EQV): The value of all property as determined by the Commissioner of Revenue biennially, using a standard of "full and fair value"; also referred to as EQV. Expenditure: The spending of money by the City for the programs or projects within the approved budget. Fiscal Year (FY): A 12-month period, commencing July 1 and ending June 30, to which the annual budget applies, and at the end of which a governmental unit determines its financial position and the results of its operations. The number of the fiscal year is that of the calendar year in which it ends; FY2012 is the fiscal year which ends June 30, 2012. Free Cash: Free cash refers to the amount of Fund Balance that is available for appropriation. It is certified each July 1 by the state. Because of the stringent way that the state makes these calculations, Free Cash more

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 261 closely represents Cash (actual dollars held) than does Fund Balance, which includes a variety of receivables (i.e., cash due). Fund: An accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts that are segregated for the purpose of carrying on specific activities or attaining certain objectives in accordance with specific regulations, restrictions, or limitations. Fund Balance: The amount by which cash, accounts receivable, and other assets exceed liabilities and restricted reserves. It is akin to the stockholders equity account on a corporate balance sheet. It is not, however, available for appropriation in full because a portion of the assets listed as "accounts receivable" may be taxes receivable and uncollected (see Free Cash). General Fund: The fund into which the general (non-earmarked) revenues of the City are deposited, and from which money is appropriated to pay expenses. General Obligation Bonds: Bonds issued by the City that are backed by the full faith and credit of its taxing authority. Governmental Funds: Funds used to organize and separate the finances of various City activities and objectives. Governmental Fund categories include: the General Fund; Enterprise Funds; Special Revenue Funds; and Stabilization Funds. Overlay: The amount raised from the property tax levy in excess of appropriations and other charges. It cannot exceed 5 percent of the levy, and is used to cover abatements and exemptions granted locally or on appeal. Overlay Surplus: The unused portions of overlay accounts from previous years; at the end of each fiscal year, this amount is computed from information provided by the Board of Assessors. Any sum so designated is transferred to, and becomes part of the General Fund undesignated fund balance. Override: A vote to increase the amount of property tax revenue that may be raised over the levy limit set by Proposition 2½. Personal Services: The cost of salaries, wages, and related employment benefits. Property Tax Levy: The amount produced by multiplying the assessed valuation of property by the tax rate. The tax rate is expressed per thousand dollars of assessed valuation. For example: House Value: $500,000 Tax Rate: $12.71 (which means $9.83 per thousand $$ of valuation) Levy Calculation: $12.71 multiplied by $500,000 divided by $1,000. Result, Property Tax Levy: $6,355 Proposition 2½ (see below): A tax limitation measure passed by Massachusetts voters in 1980 that limits the growth of the total property tax levy to 2.5% per year. New construction values are added to this limit. Two provisions of Prop 2½ allow the City to raise taxes above this tax levy limit, upon approval by a 2/3 Aldermanic vote: an operating override or a debt exclusion.

Page 265 of 266

City of Somerville, MA – FY2016 Municipal Budget Page | 262 Purchased Services: The cost of services that are provided by a vendor. Revolving Fund: Those funds that may be used without appropriation and that are established for special uses. Fees (such as for recreation) may be paid into a revolving fund. Revolving funds are established directly by state law or by City bylaw consistent with state law. Tax Levy: Total amount of dollars assessed in property taxes by the City each fiscal year. Terms Associated with Proposition 2½ Excess Levy Capacity: The difference between the City's maximum annual tax levy limit as established by Proposition 2½ and its actual tax levy for the current year. It is additional tax levy that a City could raise without asking voters for an override or debt exclusion. Growth Revenue: The amount of property tax revenue that the City can add to its allowable tax levy as a result of new construction, alterations, subdivision, or change of use of a parcel. Primary Levy Limit, or Absolute Limit: 2.5 percent of certified full and fair cash value of taxable property. Secondary Levy Limit, or Annual Levy Limit: Prior levy limit plus 2.5 percent (base) plus growth revenue.
