Sandi Wilson presented slides detailing the following: Budget Overview 2014 Revised Budget—$2,219.7 billion includes adjustments FY 2015 Net Variance compared to the FY 2014 Revised Budget—total County, total operating, total non-recurring, total general fund, general fund operating, general fund non-recurring FY 2015 Tentative Budget—sources of funds totaling $2,211,128,982 FY 2015 Tentative Budget—uses of funds totaling $2,211,128,982 Budget Guidelines and Priorities—adopted January 27, 2014 Strategic Priority—Fiscal Strength & Responsibility Structurally Balanced Budget CIP Projects Awaiting Funding—over $1.2 billion of unfunded projects Courts and Jails Master Plans—no funding source identified and expenditure limit could be impacted cash is used instead of financing FY 2013 Long—Term Debt Per Person Comparison To National Benchmarks— Maricopa is low at $64.00 per person because of the County’s conservative approach Strategic Financial Goals—plan is to try to put away $17 million for the next three years Annual County Budget Per Capita—extremely cost effective at $551.00 per person Revenue Trends Econometric Perspective—projections used for all major revenue streams Adopted General Fund Operating Sources—$81 million below the peak Chairman Barney said that departments are doing a better job with less and he expressed his appreciation for the work and effort being done by all the departments. Informal Meeting Minutes Monday, May 19, 2014 Page 3 of 15 Adopted General Fund Operating Sources—revenue at $88 million due to inability to collect fees as compared to other years. State Shared Sales Tax—budgeted at a growth of about 5% Vehicle License Tax—forecast is for a 6.5% growth Jail Excise Tax—projected at 6.1% growth Property Taxes Primary Property Tax History—looking at FY 2015 $442.8 million is almost $50 million below the peak. Meanwhile, the public safety mandate continues to grow and the County continues to focus on doing more with less with the workloads growing. Prop 117—voters passed in 2012; if the assessed valuation begins to grow at 20% the County will only see 5% hit the assessed valuation Ms. Wilson said that the secondary value will always end up going to the primary so there won’t be a secondary valuation going into FY 2016. She noted that the Library and Flood Control Districts would have less assessed value than in the past. Maximum Levy—is the most that the County can assess in property taxes in any year with projected Amount Under Limit at $162,872,685.00 Maximum Levy vs. Actual—shows how Maricopa County is again dealing with less revenue and still meeting mandates. The County has been significantly below the maximum levy and will still be at $162.8 million below. Economic Indicators Strategic Priority—Growth & Economic Development Recovery Detail-—Consumer debt is low and net worth is improving with real income growth; Low inflation; Federal Government policy still expansive; Housing prices rebounding slightly Economic Development—Economic Development Council to concentrate on funding for economic partners that provide the best leveraging of County resources such as: Greater Phoenix Economic Council Greater Phoenix Convention and Visitors Bureau Greater Phoenix Chamber of Commerce Ms. Wilson stated that new contracts will be developed, negotiated and brought to the Board for approval to ensure that the goals are directly related to building the economy and meeting the needs of each of the Supervisory Districts. She also explained that there would be a reduction in the budget in economic development. Brian Hushek presented highlights of Department Budgets: Justice System Strategic Priority—Safe Communities Superior Court—Cradles to Crayons program moved to Operating budget Superior Court—Total Case Volume by Year and the clearance rate is a concern because it is dropping considerably. Judge Davis stated the clearance rate indicates some stress on the system, two Judges are being added to the Cradles to Crayons system, and a volume increase of cases is expected court-wide due to increase of Child Protective Services. Chairman Barney stated that the entire increase is related to demands in the criminal justice system justice demands. Informal Meeting Minutes Monday, May 19, 2014 Page 4 of 15 Public Defense System—$15.9 million increase where the operating budget increase is due primarily to dependency and adult criminal representation. Dependency—new dependency filings has increased and expenditures to increase County Attorney—increased funding for: reduced salary savings, reallocation of current and new positions to general fund, and other admin needs Criminal Caseload/Prosecutor Retention—general fund criminal attorney positions percent to increase while submittals and submittal trend are well below positions filled Bill Montgomery, County Attorney, stated that after looking at the history and current trends it was determined that a Zero Based Budget (ZBB) would work best. He said that as the number of more serious felony cases continue to increase, more time and experience-based personnel is needed. Supervisor Wilcox stated that she was worried about ZBB at the beginning but believes it is a good process and sets a tone for reviewing budgets. Michael Jeanes, Clerk of Superior Court, expressed his appreciation to Board of Supervisors and OMB staff for a smooth budget process. He stated that the special revenue fund is projected to continue to decline and his budget request includes a $688,000.00 increase for new positions and the change in gap fund allocation The Justice Courts request is for a $686,537.00 increase due to Pro Tem coverage, reduced salary savings, and increased overtime and benefits. Cynthia Goelz reported on the budgets for Adult Probation, Juvenile Probation and the budgetary needs for those offices. Case volumes and market study increases will be additions to the budget. The major issues in the Sheriff’s office include market based salary adjustments, an increase in the average length of jail stay and a recent court judgment order. Joe Arpaio, County Sheriff, thanked Board of Supervisors and budget staff for the budget process and for supporting the Sheriff’s office. He stated that Maricopa County is the 3rd largest and best run County in the nation. He expressed the need for continued work on salary increases for the Deputies but he also understands the constraints. Ms. Goelz continued her presentation covering Health Care Programs, Correctional Health, the Medical Examiner and Public Health concerns. The Education Service Agency will soon do a mandate study and Dr. Covey commented on the juvenile transition program. He also reaffirmed the recapture of positions allowing for expanded services. Assessor—$23,342,875.00 General Fund Operating Budget with a slight increase on the ESRI desktop review pilot project Paul D. Petersen, County Assessor, thanked the Board of Supervisors and OMB staff. He said that he would report back on the ESRI Desktop Review Pilot Project during the year.

The recommended budget includes funding for 2.5% performance increases limited market- based increases, continuation of education assistance program and employee benefits maintenance. Chairman Barney said that it is imperative to do what is necessary to keep from losing good employees by managing compensation issues. He said he is hopeful that the trend will continue to decline to make sure it doesn’t impede the County’s ability to preserve services to the citizens. Sandi Wilson explained the factors that remain as possible threats to the budget including the effects of Prop 117, the continued slow economic recovery development in unincorporated areas and the statutory expenditure limitations. Sandi Wilson thanked the Office of Management and Budget staff, Board of Supervisors and their staff. She thanked Tom Manos for his continued advice and for showing how important it is to collaborate with all involved when setting a budget. Chairman Barney thanked Sandi Wilson and the Office of Management and Budget staff for all of their hard work. Supervisor Wilcox agreed with Tom Manos that the current tentative budget is probably one of the best budgets developed in recent years. She compared it to the implementation of the 5- year budget plan when the budget was a fiscal nightmare upon starting her tenure at the County. She reminded the members that Maricopa County had received the “Best Run County in the Nation Award” which was very satisfying. She said that the current budget was exciting and the best rate of return for taxpayers. The strategic planning process was very successful, and the budget is a product of that. She spoke about employee pay increases, market base increases, structural balance and operating contingency. Supervisor Wilcox commented on some special features including the Cradles to Crayons program as a model for the Country, continued funding for the homeless campus, and Zero Based Budgeting.
