CK Financial Position

– The $308M of liquid assets to pay off $207M of liabilities – Net Asset Position of $101M – Net Asset Position:

  • This places us in a solid financial position to ensure funding is available for ongoing
  • perations and unfunded liabilities
  • This trend has been moving into a positive direction over the past 6 years

What’s the Bottom Line re CK’s Financial Position?

  • Balance sheet:

– will remain healthy as long as we fully fund our operating decisions

  • CK’s challenge:

– sustained pressure on operating requirements:

  • infrastructure funding … still significantly less than our

requirements

  • Provincial regulations and requirements, potential changes to

funding programs

  • Freezing of funding on certain Health and Community Human

Services levels of funding

  • declining non residential tax base:

–historically plant closures; recently assessment appeals

  • arbitration awards in Emergency Services
  • Median household incomes

Budget Process vs. Setting Tax Policy

  • Budget process:

– determines financial resources required to carry out desired levels of service

  • Tax policy:

– determines how budget requirements are levied – finalized in April/May in order to facilitate:

  • timing of policy announcements from Province for

new legislation

  • August 1 due date of final tax billing

43

slide-44
SLIDE 44

Tax Policy Continued

  • Tax formula:
  • Assessment x Tax Ratio x Tax Rate
  • Current tax ratios:

CK Limit – Residential 1.0 1.0 prescribed – Farm 0.22 0.25 maximum – Multi-residential 2.00 2.00 – Commercial 1.96 1.98 – Industrial 2.11 2.63 – New Multi-Residential 1.10 1.10 – Landfill 6.07 6.07 – New legislation on Landfills, New Multi-Res and Multi-Res for 2017

Can only allocate 50% of budget increase to class if ratio above limit

Impact of Recommendations on Reserves

2019 Average Contributions to reserves $7.0M $4.4M Use of reserves $6.9M $7.3M Net increase (decrease) $0.1M ($2.9M)

Recommendation for long-term reserve sustainability:

  • Average annual net decrease to reserves of $2.9M
  • 2019 recommendations approximately breakeven

– At 5 year average activity, annual draw downs are consistently exceeding contributions – Traditionally reserve contributions are limited to one-time items, which includes year end surpluses – Reserves are one-time funds and should be used to fund one-time items – Annual Base Budget contributions are included in the 2019 budget to ensure Council Strategic Objectives are supported
