Recommendation: Staff recommends that Council adopt the FY 2025-2026 draft budget. Annual Budget for the 2025-2026 Fiscal Year Honorable Mayor, Keith Warren and Members oft the Town Council: Town Staff is pleased to present the proposed budget for the Fiscal Year 2025-2026, which begins on July 1, 2025 and ends on June 30, 2026. As required by the North Carolina Local Government Budget and Fiscal Control Act, the budget is balanced in its entirety. The total recommended budget for the Town of Sawmills is $6,489,701, representing a decrease of $454,695 or approximately 7% from the previous fiscal year. The proposed budget includes: No tax increases. 2.5% Increase in Water/Sewer Rates per 5-year NCRWA Rate Study Town wide street and traffic sign asesmentreplacement. Paving/Repair to Oxford, Gatewood, and Withers Drive. Additional resources for nuisance abatement and cleanup. New Christmas Tree at the Farmers Market Lot. Aggressively addressing aging water infrastructure along 321-A Maintains current levels of services to citizens. Below is a briefbudgetary summary ofthe various funds for the Town: General Fund: The proposed ad valorem tax rate for FY 2025-2026 will remain at $0.20 per $100 of assessed valuation, with an anticipated collection rate exceeding 95%. At full collection, each penny of the property tax rate is projected to generate approximately $40,347.65 in revenue. State-collected local revenues have been projected using data from the North Carolina League of Municipalities, supplemented by local economic indicators and regional trends to ensure a well- informed and forward-looking fiscal outlook. Key Departmental Highlights: 3% salary increase for all Town employees to maintain competitive compensation. Addition of one full-time Recreation position to support growing service needs. Continued participation in the Caldwell County Sales Tax Reinvestment Program at $194,000 annually. Ongoing Capital Projects The FY 2025-2026 General Fund continues to be shaped by several multi-year project ordinances. Among these, the most significant is a $473,000 appropriation for architectural and construction management services related to the new Town Hall facility. This facility will feature expanded office space, public meeting rooms, a community space, and a drive-through service window. The Town's financial obligation for this project during the fiscal year will correspond to the actual progress of construction completed within FY 2025-2026. Enterprise Fund: Due to rising service costs and the continued need to maintain critical infrastructure, the Town Council and staff conduct annual reviews of water and sewer rates. To ensure these reviews remain objective and data-driven, it is considered best practice to conduct a formal water and sewer rate study every 5 to 7 years. In February 2019, the North Carolina Rural Water Association completed such a study for the Town, and the recommended rate adjustments began with the 2020-2021 fiscal year. The rate structure established by this study seeks to balance the Town's obligation to provide high-quality services with the goal of offering residents the most economical rates possible. Given the importance of maintaining Enterprise Fund reserves to support anticipated system improvements, ensure financial solvency, and respond to unforeseen emergencies, staff and the Town Council are encouraged to continue practicing sound tinancial planning. Accordingly, it is recommended that the Town maintain its adherence to the five-year rate plan outlined in the 2019 study. Additionally, staff recommends commissioning a new water and sewer rate study during the 2025-2026 fiscal year to provide a basis for rate setting through 2030. The Utility Fund is projected to end the 2024-2025 fiscal year with a balance of$1,730,220, reflecting a decrease of $367,210 or 17.51%. This reduction is primarily due to a decrease in planned capital projects for the coming fiscal year. In light of recent invesments-including the acquisition oft the new Public Works property, the potential launch of] Evergreene Industrial Park, and the expansion of park facilities and related infrastructure -the Town has elected to scale back on certain initiatives to ensure adequate staffing and funding remain in place to continue delivering exceptional service to citizens. The 2025-2026 fiscal year includes two project ordinances directly tied to the Enterprise Fund. The first is a $199,312.50 appropriation to fund the Town's share ofthe joint Evergreene Industrial Park project with Caldwell County. The second is a $189,000 ordinance representing the Town's matching portion for a BRIC (Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities) grant. This project involves replacing and elevating a generator and raising the roadway to ensure uninterrupted access and service during high water events Miscellaneous: The FY 2025-2026 budget includes a grant project ordinance related to the Helene disaster response and recovery. This ordinance is expected to remain active through 2027. At the time of this document, the Town is working closely with FEMA and NC Emergency Management (NCEM) to determine the total project cost. We have received strong assurances that the project will be fully reimbursed, with 100% funding anticipated from either FEMA or the State. Additionally, we anticipate a second project ordinance for the 321-A Waterline Replacement. This initiative will replace aging concrete water lines along Highway 321-A from Granite Falls to Hudson. The project is divided into three phases, beginning at the Granite Falls end of Town and progressing northward towards Hudson. The timeline and scope ofe each phase will depend on bid responses, which remain pending due to delays in state permitting. Water Rates: Water Base Rate: $23.89 $23.89 min charge per month up to 2,000 gal $6.96 per 1,000 gal from 1,000 - 10,000 gal $8.12 per 1,000 gal from 10,001 - 20,000 gal $5.22 per 1,000 gal from 20,001 - 30,000 gal $4.06 per 1,000 gals after 30,000 gal Sewer Rates: Sewer Base Rate: $32.63 $32.63 min charge per month up to 2,000 gals $8.80 per additional 1,000 gals Conclusion: As we move into the 2025-26 fiscal year, we continue to build upon the progress made in the current year. Strategic investments in our parks, properties, and infrastructure remain a priority, as we also plan for a new operations facility that will allow us to better serve the citizens of Sawmills. Despite ongoing challenges such as supply chain disruptions and rising costs due to inflation, online shopping activity remains strong, leading to sustained increases in sales tax revenues. However, inflation--while slowing compared to recent years- remains a persistent factor. Given this uncertainty, we continue to adopt a conservative approach to revenue projections and closely monitor all expenditures. Preparing this year's budget message has been both the easiest and most frustrating of my career. It was easy in the sense that much ofthe language remained unchanged from last year's message a reflection of the ongoing, unresolved challenges we face. At the same time, it was frustrating for that very reason. The uncertainties of the past few years have continued to impact timelines for projects, bidding processes, contract work, and hiring. However, there is a silver lining: projects are now progressing, albeit slowly, which marks a notable improvement from previous years. Looking ahead, the outlook for FY 2025-26 is cautiously optimistic. Many national-level political uncertainties appear to be stabilizing, and our projects, though delayed, are moving forward. Nevertheless, we remain fiscally conservative as questions about the broader economy, inflation, and global conflicts persist. Town staff continues to deliver exceptional, efficient, and high-value services to our community. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the Mayor and Council for their steady leadership and thoughtful guidance throughout this budget season.
