This report is submitted by the Council Research mA Review Gtoup which
was appointed pursuant to Council Older 06-54 (Extdbit A) on January 13,
1986. A copy of the Ordinance which establishes the Feaearch and Feview
Group and specifies its mastership and prOO JUtes is attached as Mibit R.
According to Council Order 86-54, this Review Grw was given instructions
to review Ne increase in General Fund cash occurring in recent years and to
study the City's requirements for cash balances thmughwt the year for
operating reserve, charter and ordinance purposes. For purposes of our
review, the baler a sheets for the General Fund as of June 30, 1982 were
compared with Jure 30, 1985. These dates were chosen because Cbay
representee the fitst full year on our new fiscal year basis. In order to
accurately study the City's cash requirements, it sea also necessary for the
Getup to review the City's leSeLVe ACCOMta. The levies Group used Council
Order 85-219 as the b sis for this analysis (Wabit C. ).
m the Council is aware, the cash surplus/deficit requirement as it
relates to Oct annual budgeting procedures is contained in the City Charter
(Mibit D). Nod the related definition for determining the calculation of
this cash surplus/deficit is contained in our City .Ordinances (Entabit E).
'floe definition provides that sufficient cash should be available in the
General Fund and Enterprise Funds to cover ancunts payable for current
purposes including the current portion of longterm debt and amounts set up
in Reserve Accounts which require a cash payment to satisfy. the coo a isou
revealed the tollwing charges in cash and cash requirements as required] in

H. Unlesionated Reserve: A elation of revenue/expenditures in
excess of or below budget projections over the period.
the desirability of maintaining such reserves, in any amounts, was
carefully reviewed. Although the anaunts contained within eacb Reserve Fund
created va ying points ofview, the Review Group cncu� with the current
concept of placing conies in these Reserve Fins for the purpose as
established by the City W ncil. In light of Federal legislation under the
Grmw-Rudman proposal with reduced revenues coning to the City as well as
the Tax Reform Act, the Review Gras felt the City should maintain these
reserves in over that Ne City Nuncil have the flexibility to deal with
the loss of Nderal revenue. Also, Bangor International Airport is a unique
enterprise in the City an is subject to business fluctuations which affect
its cash flow and subsequently the cash influx by the City necessary to
0.VRlme its operations.
The Review Grafi revievied a cash activity sum e y for all funds for the
1985 fiscal year to Compare the revenue by amths with expenditures which
Project cash requirerzents. In view of the expected reductims in Federal
funding further refinement in cash prejeetlene sinuld be cvnsideted. A Copy
of this brelvev th summary is attached as Exhibit G.
SELF-IwupANCE EESEE4E-61JER , CfM1PF TIm
Its City is self-insured for wrrkars' eempensation up to [he limit of
$250,000 (per incident) with an excess coverage policy assuming all claims
above that limit. Costs of workers' cxpensation cases (indannity, medical,
legal, etc.) are treated as operating costs in the annual budget. The
RaweVe was established W provide for settlement of cases and/or excess
annual costs of workers' oue anestion oases.
In the spring of 1985 the City Council agreed W set a maxfeum licit of
$500,000 for municipal eaPlOyees and $250,000 for School repartaent
emplo/eas in this fund. The Review Group discussed alternatives which
included:
A. Harkens' compensation 5 yments can he maintained on a current
Operating basis without benefit of Iu sup alternatives which would reduce
One AWWt neaded In one reserve.
B. In the event one City would benefit fr settlement of a case by a
lunp sun payment, an appropriation would be necessary in the operating
budget.
C. If the City wants W maintain the flexibility of settling workers'
ooaVensation cases On a lmP am basis, the Reserve should he maintained.
Recommendation: The present policy should remain in effect with a
reduction in the limit to $250,000 for the City portion of the at nunt W to
accomplished through attrition. The School Department level should ranain
at $250,000. Ile Reserve Fund is W be used for:
1. leap am settlements approved by the City Council.

the City carries a $25,000 t Uctible in its prcyerty insurance (fire)
and is self-insured for vehicle collision. the deductible u er the
property insurance aM the full cost of collision repairs are charged to
this 8nsoms. Past practice has been to annually appropriate $30,000 W
this Reserve against which charges were made. In the spring of 1985, the
City Council agreed to set a maxivuh in this account of $150,000 and that
amount has now been attained. Amming the City Council maintains this
account at its present level, there will be ,o appropriation in the PYRY
budget, unless u nown daoands appear in the meantime. the maxinm limit is
to provide ooverage as follows:
Property deductible - City $50,000
Property deductible - $olnol 50,000
Vehicle collision 50,000
The Review Group discusmd alternatives which included:
A. No lffimtve with annual anounts appropriated to cover mntirgencies.
B. A reduction of the total limit with the balance to be appmpriated
on an annual basis.
C. Leaving the limit as approved by the City Council in 1985.

This �serve originated when the City purchased and operated a school
bus fleet. In subs¢ cent years, the City purchased ad3itional vehicles for
transit use. Appropriations to this Reserve terve cele through an equipment
replacement formula repreaenting the local share of vehicle replacement
costs. Additional conies were credited to this Reserve at the time tle
school hus fleet was sold. All replacerent transit buses and related
equilaent have been purchased from the FeseL . Present plana to replace
the existing transit bus and related capital equip ent in conjunction win
state ani federal funis will require approximately $250,000 of the fund
balance. the I iew Gra@ discussed the following alternatives:
A. R duce halanre of Reserve to $250,000 which represents the local
share of replacing transit capital equipment.
B. Leave current fuM balance to be used for future capital needs or
to subsidise the operation should the federal and/or state assistance be
withdrawn.
C. Reduce balance of Peserve to $250,000 and continue to provide an
annual appropriation to the FLM based upon the equipment replacement
formula to be used in future years for capital requirements.
FYNation: The Paview Gra@ recomends that the funds in excess
of $250,000 be raroved from the Reserve ELM and used for the purposes (A.).

FIRE Fein MFNf RESERVE
The City has eight major pieces of firefighting equipment plus seven
additional support vehicles with an average life of t enty-five years for
major eq,iprent. If it were possible W evenly distribute the replacements,
a major piece of equipment would need to be replaced every two and a half
years. The present annual appropriation for replacement of fire equipment
amounts W $70,836. This replacement figure represents only four of the
eight major pieces of equipment hot does include all seven support
vehicles. Ina Reserve balance at January 31, 1986 was $671,974 and is
projected W be $703,497 by June 30, 1986. Based on this data and the
replacement schedule on Exhibit K the balances at the end of each fiscal
year would be:
Fiscal Year Beg. Bal. Additions Charges 0tl. Bal.
1986 632,261 71,236 703,497
1987 703,497 71,236 160,000 614,733
1988 614,733 71,236 81000 677,969

1990 387,205 71,236 150,000 308,441
Since the Self-Inwranon Reserve for collision damage is funded only at
a $25,000 level, one of the Fire Department units inwlved in a fire or
otter accident might necessitate the early use of a portion of the yeserve
Fool W replace that equipment. Toe Review Group discussed the following
alternatives:
A. In anticipation of a replacement, provide an annual appropriation
over a specified period of tine W accu elate sufficient replacrosent monies.
B. Ruud equiprent replacements as part of the annual band issue which
a ld spread the cost over subsequent years as opposed W accu latirg
m nes in anticipation of the replacement as doe through the Reserve.

M analysis of the Reserve for the last Nree fiscal years aM 1986 to
date m sho n on exhibit L.
M uM uD �' a
The City las approximately 184 pieces of rolling stock that are
included in an equipment replacement formula with an annual appropriation to
the Reserve Fund based upon that formula. Additima to the reserve Fund are
Iron the annual appropriation based upon said formula (usually on an hourly
or per mile basis) while reductions represent the replacement costs of new
equipmnt. Past practice has been M fund the replacement cast of hew
equipment from this Reserve to the extent the unit being replaced has been
reserved for and the balance of the cost as a charge to the annual operating
budget of the Motor Pool. In the spring of 1985, the City Council
established a maximum limit in this account of $300,000 and the full funding
of future equipment replacements from this Reserve Account. no balance of
the Reserve as of January 31, 1986 is $440,823, however, this does not
reflect the $381,000 appropriation for replacement vehicles contained in the
FY86 operating budget of the Motor Fool nor does this reflect additions to
the Reserve Fu' based upon equipment usage during FY86. The Group
discussed the following alternatives:
A. Replacement of major pieces of equipment (graders, bulldozers,
etc.) as part of the City's annual bond issue.
B. Fund equipment replacement entirely through the annual operating
budget thereby eliminating the Reserve Fund.
C. Continue present practice of funding an annual appropriation
reflecting vehicle usage and utilizing the Reserve for purchase of
replacement equipment while maintaining a usurious limit of $300,000 in the
fund.
