Subject: Boat generator bid
Hello -
The police boat has issues with the generator and the boat deck, both of which we have worked with the Finance
Department on. The boat deck was damaged due the Waterford/East Lyme bridge construction, the generator stopped
working and needs to be replaced. Can we please get the generator’s bid and request for acceptance on the next Board
of Selectman’s meeting agenda, Rawle has the backup and both quotes that were received. The boat deck will be
repaired when the boat is taken out of the water to replace the generator, so that only one charge for hauling the boat
is paid for. FYI, the boat deck repair is paid for by insurance, Finance has given us the “go-ahead” to move forward with
those repairs.
if you have any questions please let me know.

First Selectman Brule —
The Waterford Police Department started an upgrade to our records management platform during
retired Chief Pendleton’s tenure, the money was requested in 2014. The project has not gone well, and |
have held money from the company until they fulfilled their contract. As the company has finally
finished what they needed to, | went to authorize the remaining money owed to the vendor (purchased
under “Tritech,” then bought out by “Central Square”) and found that the line item had been closed by
interim Finance Director Savitsky in the 2017 budget.
The Town of Waterford owes the remaining portion of the Police Department Records Management
Software to Central Square Technologies in the amount of $33,639.00. | respectfully request that an
additional appropriation be made in this amount to pay Central Square Technologies for their services
rendered.
Should you have any questions, | am always available to answer.
Regards,
aw .

FIFTEEN ROPE FERRY ROAD WATERFORD, CT 06385-2886
DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT
MEMORANDUM
TO: Rob Brule, First Selectman
FROM: Abby Y. Piersall, AICP, Planning Director
DATE: January 27, 2021
TITLE: Request to appropriate $50,000 in Designated Funds from FY21 Capital and Non-Recurring
Expenditure Fund line 20511-57857 (Civic Triangle Upgrades).
This request is to appropriate the $50,000 designated in the FY21 Capital Budget for Civic Triangle
improvements. The FY21 request for Capita! funding prioritized construction of a boardwalk along the
east side of the Duck Pond. This appropriation would fund design and permitting services for pedestrian
improvements including an accessible boardwalk and paths to create a complete walkway around the
pond and connecting to the gazebo and playground area, Library, sidewalk on Rope Ferry Road, and
nearby wooded paths. A draft RFP for consulting services is attached.
Appropriating furids for design and permitting is the first and necessary step toward building pedestrian
improvements. As part of this phase of the project, the Town will work with the selected consultant to
develop construction documents and cost estimates. This information will become the basis for funding
construction. Should the design, permitting, and construction services fees amount to less than $50,000,
the remaining funds in this appropriation would be spent on signage and landscaping projects around the
pond. Projects may include pollinator gardens, pond edge planting to deter geese, or similar projects.
The image on the left shows
the area along the edge of the
pond where a_ boardwalk
would be designed. The
selected consultant would also
design connecting paths and
upgrades to the bridges around
the pond (right) to improve
accessibility.

Memo
To: Kim Allen, Finance Director
From: Chris Johnson, Library Director
cc: Gail Miller, Library Secretary
Date: January 25, 2021
Re: Out of Series Contingency Budget Transfer Request
Per my recent email, and our follow-up phone conversation, | am attaching an Out of Series
Transfer Request in the amount of $44,470.75 from the Town’s Contingency Account (10121-
59010) to balance our Library Administration account (10136-51110).
Because of the unbudgeted expenses of $87,239.88 charged against this line on November 27
due to the retirement of the previous Director, this account was overspent by $20,097.20 by
the end of the calendar year. The library made an In Series transfer of $20,097.20 from our
Clerical and Technical budget line (10136-51210) that was approved by the Board of Selectmen
at the January 5 meeting.
However, our existing budget lines are not able to cover the anticipated amount of $44,470.75
that will be needed to bring the account into balance for the remainder of this fiscal year. This
request is calculated as follows:
Current Account Balance | $ (5,481.13)
Anticipated Salary
Weeks 5-27 | $ (38,933.62)
Foley Background Check | $ (56.00)
Total Under-budgeted | $ (44,470.75)
| do not know what the current balance is in the Town’s Contingency Fund, so | did not
complete that box on the attached Out of Series Transfer request.
Thank you for your assistance with this request and please advise if any additional information
is needed.

Total Federal revenues = $1,716,656 in FY2020 up from $1,399,839 in FY2019
which was down from $2,588,876 in FY2018 which was up from $1,476,481 in
FY2017 which was down from $1,850,874 in FY2016 — down from $2,139,308 in
FY2015.
The largest Federal award was the Special Education IDEA grants totaling
$586,337.
No deficiencies were noted in the Federal Single Audit Report
Total State revenues = $1,848,603 down from $2,446,421 in FY2020 down
slightly from $2,489,647 in FY2018 which was down from $4,830,177 in FY2017
and down from $3,957,188 in FY2016 which was, down from $4,605,398 in
FY2015 (-$648,210). Increase in FY2017 was in School Construction Grants.
No Findings or Questioned Costs found in the State Single Audit Report

Cover notes that, like the FY2019 Report, the FY2020 Report is a Comprehensive
Annual Financial Report (CAFR) unlike the FY2018 report, which like the
FY2017Audit Report is just the Annual Financial Report, not a Comprehensive
Annual Financial Report (CAFR). I prefer the CAFAR because the additional
statistical information is very useful.
Short summary of Waterford Government that preceded listing of Principal Town
Officials in prior CAFRS is after the listing of Principal Town Officials. It did
not appear in FY2018 Audit Report. It was also not in the FY2017 or FY2016
Audit reports. It had been in previous Audit reports.
Excellent summary of Economic Activity in Town on Pages vi-vii.
The paragraph on Long Term Financial Planning needs to be corrected to include
the fact that the RTM formed a Planning Committee that superseded the BOF
Committee in CY 2013 (October 7, 2013 RTM meeting). Same comment was in
the Review of the FY2019 report
Why does the GASB 54 narrative discuss the FY2019 Unassigned Fund Balance
of $16,781,193 rather than the FY2020 Unassigned Fund Balance of
$18,963,143? The FY2019 report also referred to the FY2018 unassigned Fund
Balance of $13,979,558. Page viii
The Auditor’s report explained how they conducted the Audit of the Financial
Statements provided by the Town noting what they reviewed and what they did
not review. Pages 1-3.
IN FY2020 the Town’s net position decreased by 0.6% or $894 thousand and
business activities decreased by 2.9% or $1.6 million. In FY2019 the Town’s net
position decreased by 0.8% or $1.4 million and the business activities decreased
by 2.2% or $1.3 million. Town’s net assets as restated due to GASB 75 increased
by 1.4% in FY2018 compared to the increase in FY2017 of 1.7% compared to the
decrease of 3.42% in FY16. Expenses in FY2020 were $894 thousand more than
the $111.4 million generated in taxes and other revenue. Expenses in FY2019
were $1.4 million more than the $102.6 million generated in tax and other
Page 1

revenues compared to FY2018 expenses that were $2.1 million less than the
$106.9 million generated in tax and other revenues. In FY2017 expenses were
$2.7 million less than generated revenues compared to expenses $5.8 million
more than generated revenues in FY2016. This compares to an increase in FY15
when expenses were $1.0 million less than generated revenues. Resources
available for appropriation in FY2020 were $1.5 million more than anticipated
compared to FY2019 resources available for appropriation compared to $2.7
million more than anticipated compared to resources in FY2018 that were $823.4
thousand more than anticipated. Resources available for appropriation were $1.2
million more than anticipated in FY2017 compared to being $505 thousand more
than anticipated in FY16. This compares to FY15 when resources were $2.5
million less than anticipated for the general fund. Page 4
Due to the managed spending by department heads and the impact of the COVID-
19 shut down of activities, $1 million of the unassigned balance was transferred to
the Capital Non-Recurring Expenditure Fund and $1.8 million of unused
appropriations were returned to fund balance compared to the $963.0 thousand
that were returned to fund balance at the end of FY2019 compared to $792.6
thousand of unused appropriations which were returned to the general fund
balance in FY2018. This compares to $591.2 thousand of unused appropriations
were returned to the general fund balance in FY2017. This compares closely to
the $599.3 thousand of unused appropriations that were returned to general fund
balance in FY16. This compares to $251.1 thousand of unused appropriation that
was returned to the general fund balance in FY15. Page 4
Good explanation of town financial activities and categories of Town funds is
found Page 5.
Note that Town Funds use the modified accrual accounting method so there is a
difference between governmental activities and governmental funds. This
difference is described in a reconciliation included with the fund statements. Page
5.
. Town cannot use fiduciary net assets to finance operations. Page 5
12. As noted above, the Town’s assets were restated in FY2018 Audit Report due to
GASB 75. In FY2020 the unrestricted net assets changed to ($19.13) million
compared to the FY2019 unrestricted net assets of ($13.040) million from the _
($11.532) million in FY2018 Based on that restatement, the Unrestricted net
assets decreased from ($13.638) million in FY2017 to ($11.532) million in
FY2018. In the FY2017 report Unrestricted net assets changed from (5.725)
million at end of FY15 to (10.913) million at end of FY16 to (5.839) in FY2017.
The negative value is a result of the implementation of GASB 68 in FY1S..
Business type activities (mostly the Utility Commission Enterprise Fund)
decreased to $53.6 million in FY2019 compared to $54.817 million in FY18
compared to $56.670 million at end of FY17 compared to $57.463 million at end
of FY16. This compares to $57.6 million in FY15. Page 6.
Total Revenues were $111.416 million and total expenses were $112.215 million
in FY2020 compared to Total Revenues of $102.563 million and total expenses
were $103.781 million in FY2019. This compares to Total Revenues of $106.967
million and total expenses of $104.634 million in FY18. This compares to Total

Government activities revenue sources — 82.7% from property taxes, 13.4% from
operating and capital grants and contributions, 2.8% from charges for services and
1.1% from investment and other general revenues in FY20. This compares to
88.0% from property taxes, 7.2% from operating and capital grants and
contributions, 3.5% from charges for services and 1.3% from investment and
other general revenues in FY2019. This compares to 82.2 % from property taxes,

decreased by $215.0 thousand in FY2020 after increasing slightly in percentage
share (up by $611.0 Thousand in FY2019 over FY18. Page 7 & 8.
Note the factors affecting operations outlined on Pages 7 & 8.
Revenues from Sewer fees decreased by $55 thousand in FY2020 after increasing
by $111 thousand in FY19 compared to a decrease of $265,000 (3.3%) in FY18
compared to $226,000 (1.4%) in FY17 compared to decrease of $70,000 (1.8%)
in FY16, Capital contributions decreased by $43 thousand in FY2020 after a
$221 thousand (5.3%) decrease in FY2019, compared to a $890 thousand
decrease (68.1%) in FY17 compared to the increase by $362,000 (38.3%) in
FY16. This was due to completion of work on Pump Station Grit Facility in
FY18, Harvey Ave. Pump Station in FY17 and the Wastewater SCADA system
project. This compares to a decrease of $117,000 (3.0%) and capital
contributions increased by $522,000 due to completion of Bolles Court Pump
Station improvements in FY15. Page 8
Town Combined Fund Balance was $31.2 million in FY2020, an increase of $7.5
million from $23.7 million in FY2019, an increase of $1.7 million compared to

FY20 the contributions of $11.4 million offset the expenses of $10.2 million.
This compared to FY19 when the contributions of $11.7 million offset the
expenses of $12.1 million. This compares to FY18 where the $11.2 million in
contributions was greater than the $11.0 million expenses in FY18 continuing the
positive trend. In FY17 the $11.0 million in contributions and other revenues was
greater than the $10.8 million in expenses for claims and administration. This
continues the positive trend. In FY16 the $10.9 million in contributions was
greater than the $10.1 million in expenses for claims and administration just as in
FY15 the $11.9 million in contributions was greater than the $10.9 million in
claim expenses. Page 9.
FY20 revenues were $2.3 million over expenditures. This compares to FY19
when revenues were $2.8 million over expenditures on a budgetary basis. This
compares to FY18 revenues that were $934.9 thousand over expenses compared
to FY17 when revenues were $1.8 million over expenses compared to FY16 when
revenues were $1.2 million over expenses. FY15 revenues were $2.2 million
under expenditures. Page 9
As usual, a good presentation of major factors affecting the FY20 operating
budget. Page 10.
There were $522,100 of outstanding encumbrances at the end of FY20. This
compares to $186,800 of outstanding encumbrances at end of FY19. This
compares to $566,000 of outstanding encumbrances at the end of FY18. This
compares to $279,600 of outstanding encumbrances at the end of FY17. This
compares with $414,700 of outstanding encumbrances at the end of FY16
compared to $283,600 of outstanding encumbrances at the end of FY15.
Encumbrances are reported as expenditures for budgetary purposes. Page 10
Note that balances for special revenue funds that are funded primarily from
operating transfers from the General Fund are also rolled into the General Fund
for reporting purposes. In FY20 those balances amounted to $355,500. In FY19
those balances amounted to $67,000. In FY18, those balances amounted to
$74,900. In FY17 those balances were $86,600 compared to $98,700 in FY16.

Capital assets decreased by $2 million in FY20. This compares to a decrease of
$6.8 million in FY19. This compares to a decrease of $7.0 million in FY18 on
top of the $7.37 million decrease in FY17 on top of the $5.8 million decrease in
FY 16 on top of decrease of $3 millionin FY15. Page 11.
Town debt at end of FY20 was $63 million down from $69.5 million at the end
of FY19, down from $74.5 million at end of FY18 which was down from the
$79.5 million in at end of FY17 compared to $85.7 million at end of FY16, down
from $90.2 million in FY15. Page 12.
Town debt rating is “AA” from Standard and Poor’s in FY20. This is no change
from FY19 and FY15. There is no mention of “Aa2” (up from “AA3” in FY11)
from Moody’s Investors Service that was noted in the FY16 report. Page 12.
Note that the town debt limit in FY20 is $638.6 million, up from $614.8 million in
FY19, up from 603.2 million in FY18, unchanged from FY17 but up from $572.3
million in FY16, up from $552.3 million in FY15. I hope we never get close to
that figure. Page 12.

The unemployment rate in FY20 was 10.8% up sharply from 3.7% in FY19. The
FY19 rate was down from the FY18 rate of 4.0% down from an FY17 rate of
4.7% in FY17 compared to 5.3% in FY16. This is lower than the national 11.1%
and higher than the State average of 10.1% in FY20. Page 12
The Unassigned Fund Balance increased by $2.2 million in FY20 compared to a
$2.8 million increase in FY19 compared to an increase of $796.8 thousand in
FY18 compared to an increase of $2.2 million in FY17 compared to a $809,700
increase in FY16, This is compared to the increase of $8.2 million in FY15 due to
the disestablishment of the stabilization fund of $10.4 million. The negative
operating results of $2.2 million caused the reduction to $8.2 million. The
stabilization fund was established at the end of FY11 at $9.7 million For
historical information prior to change in fund definitions in FY11, the Unreserved
Fund Balance at end of FY2010 was $11.1 million, essentially the same as in
FY2009 (report says it is a decrease from $12.08 in FY09) and close to the $11.4
million at end of FY07 after an increase to $19.2 million in FY08 due to
Dominion settlement. Page 12
Total Net Assets for FY20 are $210,444,390 compared to net assets in FY19 of
$212,884,881 compared to net assets for FY18 of $215,485,469 compared to net
assets of $222,999,822 in FY17 compared to $221,076,376 in FY16, compared to
an FY15 value of $227,004,185 Page 13.

$1,688,931 compared to a loss in FY19 of $1,451,560 compared to a loss of
$2,085,971 in FY18 compared to a loss of $800,704 in FY17, compared to FY16
loss of $137,199 compared to the FY15 loss of $433,961. These losses are mostly
due to depreciation of related capital equipment. Page 14.
Long Term Liabilities at end of FY20 was $14,540,697. This is an increase from
the FY19 value of $13,688,114, a slight decrease from FY 18 total liabilities of
$14,426,353 compared to $10,893,245 in FY17 compared to an FY16 value of
$19,128,450 compared to an FY15 value of $16,458,081. Page 15.

compared to $124,073,136 in FY17, compared to FY16 liabilities of
$125,581,192 compared to FY15 liabilities of $123,607,087. This is the third
time the long-term liabilities have been detailed in this part of the audit due to the
OPEB reporting requirements. Page 16.
Note that the Net Pension Liability is $31,574,561, Compensated Absences is
$7,239,502 and Net OPEB Liability is $17,291,575 in FY20. This compares to a
Net Pension Liability of $29,879,877, Compensated absences liability of
$7,258,446, and the Net OPEB liability of $18,501,569 in FY19. This compares
to Net pension liability of $14,262,138; the compensated absences liability of
$7,093,628 and Net OPEB liability of $20,720,417 for FY18. Page 16
General Fund Balance at end of FY20 was $20,113,162 compared to $17,259,424

compared to a CNR balance at end of FY15 of $10,197. Page 17.
Note that there was still a deficit of $2,941,628 related to the Waterford High
School Building Project at the end of FY20. This is down from the deficit of
$2,941,645 at end of FY19. I guess $17 of interest sort of pays off. Real question
is what is current status? Page 17
Note the explanations for the differences in amounts reported for government
activities on page 18. There is more detail in FY20 and FY19 audits compared to
previous audits before FY18. Some of this is a result of the requirement to
provide more detail regarding Pension and OPEB future liabilities. Page 18
The change in net assets of government activities was ($895,894) in FY20
compared to ($1,356,763) at end of FY19 compared to $2,137,645 at end of
FY18 compared to $2,716,587 at end of FY17 compared to ($5,790,620) at end of

Enterprise Fund showed an operating loss of $1,688,931 in FY20 compared to an
operating loss of $1,451,560 in FY19 compared a loss of $2,105,565 in FY18
compared to a loss of $1,217,918 in FY17 compared to a loss of $1,444,095 in
FY16 compared to a loss of $1,378,805 in FY15. The depreciation expense plays
a significant role in this paper loss. Page 20
Internal Service Fund for Health insurance showed an increase to $5,802,649 in
FY20 compared to a reduction to $4,542,016 in FY19 compared to its position of
$4,894,509 in FY18, up from $4,639,216 in FY17 up from $4,422,052 in FY16

Note that $6,109,331 was restricted to OPEB Benefits and $540,447 to
Retirement Benefits in FY20 compared to $5,056,942 restricted for OPEB and
$535,281 for retirement in FY19, Page 22
Trust Funds information was combined in the FY18 report rather than separating
the Pension fund and the OPEB fund. This was repeated in FY19 and FY20. I
prefer keeping the reporting of the two funds separate even though both are
managed by the Retirement Commission. Page 22 &23 |
The combined Trust funds ended FY20 with a balance of $6,649,778 up from a
FY19 balance of $5,592,253 up from a FY18 balance of $4,179,991 compared to
a combined balance of $2,919,656 at end of FY17. OPEB Trust Fund ended

Funds with Deficit balances — Historic Preservation Enhancement Grant — I
assume that the dollars are in the General Fund. High School Building Project —
$2,941,628 in FY20 compared to $2,941,645 deficit in FY19 (down from
$2,941,672 deficit in FY18). I assume this is the amount in dispute with the State
regarding allowed expenditures for the High School Project. Page 32. In FY19
and FY18 report the High School Building Project owed the General Fund
$2,942,807 (Page 37).
Custodial Credit Risk Presentation different in FY20, FY19 and FY18 different
from the FY17 discussion. IN FY20 the discussion was limited to a bank balance
of $9,684,969. Discussion was limited to bank balance of $3,682,002 in FY19
and $1,258,200 in FY18 while bank balance if FY17 was $16.969,000.
Respective Credit Risks reported are $7,671,969 in FY20 , 2,859,979 in FY19,
$633,815 in FY18 and $13,500,000 in FY17. Page 33
