PRESENTATION
Management and Budget
1. PRESENTATION REGARDING THE MARICOPA COUNTY FY 2018 RECOMMENDED
BUDGET
Presentation regarding the Maricopa County FY 2017 Recommended Budget. (C-49-17-021-P-00)
Cynthia Goelz, Budget Director
Brian Hushek, Deputy Budget Director
Tina Allen, Budget Administrator
Cindy Goelz, Budget Director, began by thanking Chairman Barney, Candice Copple and all
of the Elected Officials for their contribution to this process. The final FY 2018 budget
amounts to $2,494,333,805.
The overall budget is increasing approximately 4% from FY 2017 with growth in the areas of
criminal justice and public safety. About 53% of the budget funds criminal justice demands.
There continues to be approximately $22 million in state fund-shifts. There is $245 million in
state mandated payments that include ALTCS, AHCCCs, Arnold v. Sarn and behavioral
health services.
Ms. Goelz reviewed the budget guidelines and priorities that were approved in January. She
also reviewed key assumptions going into the FY 2018 budget that included:
 Structural balance in operating funds
o Recurring revenues meet or exceed recurring expenditures over the

economic cycle
 Most likely scenario for major revenue streams
 Contingency based on historical utilization and revenue risks
 General and Detention Fund reserve levels based on two months of the prior year
operating budget
All increases are supported by designated revenue.
This year there were seven departments that participated in a zero-based budget and allowed
for a reset in their baselines with all budgets undergoing a zero-based budget review over the
next six-year cycles.
Ms. Goelz gave an overview of the major budget challenges and risks for this budget cycle
that included:
 Developing a budget that supports exceptional customer service with a lean and
efficient government based on service demands in the country’s fastest growing
county.
 Slow growth in Sales Taxes, Vehicle License Taxes, Jail Taxes, and limited growth in
Property Tax Assessment. There has been a slow recovery over the past 95 months
and these revenues are still not robust.
 Criminal Justice operating and CIP needs continue to rise resulting in increased
needs in operating costs, facilities and infrastructure.
 Increasing dependency of the Detention Fund on General Fund amounting to $30.3
million additional support from the General Funds.
 Pension rates and unfunded liabilities.
 Expenditure Limitation constraints.
 State fund-shifts of over $22 million represent 1.1% of the operating budget and
include the following:
o Juvenile Corrections Payment
o Department of Revenue Payment
o Diverted HURF Funds
o Judges’ salaries
 An additional 12.8% ($245 million) in other mandated payments to the State:
o ALTCS
o AHCCCS
o Arnold v. Sarn and behavioral health services.
These payments amount to 14% of the County’s combined budget.
Tina Allen, Budget Administrator, explained that the County’s two largest revenue sources
come from property taxes and State shared sales taxes accounting for 44% of the revenue.
Together these grew only 4.7% over FY 2017 values using the most likely predictions from
the economic consultants. The third largest revenue is the use of fund balance which has
increased by 37% over last year; but this will fund the anticipated expenditures for the new
Intake, Transfer and Release Facility. The category with the biggest reduction for this year is
Miscellaneous which went from 8% to 5.5%.
Ms. Allen also reviewed various uses of funds noting that Public Safety uses about 54% of
the total expenditure budget. The agencies this represents are:
 Superior Court
 Justice Courts
 Constables
 Adult Probation
 Juvenile Probation

Informal Meeting Minutes
Monday, May 22, 2017
Page 3 of 18
 Public Fiduciary
 Five Public Defense Service Agencies
 Integrated Criminal Justice Information Systems
 Planning and Development
 Sheriff’s Office
There was only 1/3 of a percent increase in this area. She continue to review the remainder
of the fund uses, the departments that represent each category and the percentage of the
budget each category uses.
Ms. Allen provided an overview of the net variances from year to year noting there is an
overall increase of 5.6% from FY 2017. She then discussed the State Budget impact to the
County’s budget stating there was little change from FY 2017. Comments from the Board
noted that Maricopa County is still expected to pay 100% of the Superior Court Judges’
salaries while all other counties are paying only 50% of the salaries. This gives the
appearance that Maricopa County is being penalized approximately $10 million for its fiscal
responsibility.
Ms. Allen next discussed the Maximum Levy versus the Actual Levy providing a history of
how Maricopa County has consistently kept the actual levy below the maximum levy. In FY
2018 the actual tax levy will be $535.8 million which is $148.2 million below the maximum
cap. A question from the Board asked how Maricopa County compares with other counties in
this area. Ms. Goelz responded that there were maybe three lower than the maximum with
several counties at the maximum.
Ms. Allen explained that there will be no proposed change to the combined tax rate from FY
2017 to FY 2018.
The County’s other Major Operating Revenues include the State-shared Sales Tax, the Jail
Excise Tax (Detention Fund Tax) and the Vehicle License Tax. These are expected to have a
4% growth range over FY 2017. This is based on the “most likely” forecast from the economic
consultants.
Ms. Allen explained that the current Jail Excise Tax cannot sustain the cost of services
provided with these funds. The projections show that by FY 2020 the Detention Fund will be
subsidized by approximately $50 million from the General Fund. She said an adjustment of
the tax rate in the future will be necessary to support this fund. Discussion ensued by the
Board stating that it is not just an increase in revenues that is needed but also in cutting
costs. Work is taking place with the Sheriff to determine how to deliver services more
efficiently. It was agreed that there will be a need to balance the reduction of costs for
services with a tax increase. Ms. Allen added that the fund is being impacted this year by
infrastructure needs. Chairman Barney noted that the replacement of the Durango Jail will
save on operational costs.
Ms. Goelz began departmental reviews with the Sheriff’s Office noting the recommended
budget for the Detention Fund is $221.6 million, and she reviewed the increases included in
this amount. Chairman Barney explained that the Board has been working with Sheriff
Penzone to address overtime issues which are being caused by vacancies in the Detention
Officer workforce. Ms. Goelz informed the Board that the Sheriff’s Office General Fund
budget is recommended at $103.5 million and she reviewed the increases included in this
amount. She noted that one-time funding is recommended for the following:
 Tasers in the amount of $312,800
 Servers in the amount of $750,000
 Mobile Data Computers in the amount of $1,200,000

Informal Meeting Minutes
Monday, May 22, 2017
Page 4 of 18
 Replacement radios in the amount of $445,000
 IT storage in the amount of $800,000
Ms. Goelz provided a history for the Melendres Judgment Order that was issued in October,
2013 that included a Court Appointed Monitor. In July, 2016 a second amended judgment
appointed an independent investigator and independent disciplinary authority. The Sheriff’s
Office General Fund Compliance operating budget is a result of these court orders. The
budget is recommended at $19.7 million and includes the following:
 Increases for retirement contributions of $515,000
 Increases for overtime and related costs of $174,000
 Net changes to telecommunication, radio, risk management, supplies, services and
other changes of $602,000
From 2014 to present which includes $19.7 million budgeted for FY 2018, there will be an
estimated total of $83.77 million budgeted in association with the cost of compliance to this
judgment order, and this does not include legal costs.
Supervisor Gallardo stated he would like to continue to see progress reports provided to the
Board so it can monitor the progress toward full compliance.
Discussion ensued about the overtime used for paperwork required by the monitor to be
completed before the end of a shift and how much of the $19.7 million budget is for overtime.
Chairman Barney noted it is very difficult to differentiate between how much is directly related
to Melendres and things that would be coming with progress and updates to the Sheriff’s
Office.
Ms. Goelz explained the General Fund operating budget for Adult Probation is recommended
at $52.6 million. As caseloads continue to rise there is a need for additional staff. This budget
includes the following:
 Increases for retirement contributions of $775,000
 Addition of 13 staff members at a cost of $654,000 in the areas of Domestic Violence,
Sex Offenders, Standard Probation and support staff
 Shift of administration costs to the Detention Fund of $830,000
 A decrease of $590,000 in telecommunications, radio and risk management charges
In a review of the Adult Probation Detention Fund, Ms. Goelz stated that this budget has
increased to $37.1 million and includes:
 Increases for retirement contributions of $427,000
 Addition of 11 staff members at a cost of $650,000 in the areas of Prison Reentry,
Intensive Probation and support staff
 Shift of administration costs from the General Fund of $830,000
 Decrease in telecommunication, radio and risk management charges of $230,000
Ms. Goelz informed the Board there is a Justice System contingency if the determination is
made that more staff is needed.
Ms. Goelz moved forward to review the budget for Juvenile Probation. The General Fund
operating budget is recommended at $17.6 million and includes:
 Increases in retirement contributions of $295,000
 Increases for telecommunications and risk management charges of $77,000
 Decreases in personnel of $328,000 from the deletion of 10 positions and
adjustments to personnel savings

reasons for this decline.

2017.
Chairman Barney shared the steps the Assessor’s Office has taken to reorganize, reduce
personnel and move resources to position staff for the CAMA system and responded to
Supervisor Hickman’s question if the reduction in positions will be the result of technology
efficiencies when the CAMA system is on line.

expenditures create. Chairman Barney requested that Joy Rich, County Manager,
accumulate information from the past 10 years that will show the accomplishments and effect
that capital projects have on the County infrastructure.
Ms. Goelz informed the Board there are 14,148 positions being funded in the FY 2018 budget
and this is a reduction from FY 2017. The reduction is primarily due to grant funding in the
Human Services and Public Health Departments. Supervisor Gates requested information
from past decades to compare with current figures.

of budget deadlines.
The Board expressed thanks to the Chiefs of Staff and the Office of Management and Budget
