        Fw: Unfunded & Abolished Positions in 07 Budget





Hey Cindy,
We spoke yesterday about department ability to substitute unfunded 2007
positions for funded positions. As mentioned, I don't have a good answer as
to how or why this occured.   Nonetheless, attached below is the memo from
Linda that instructs Departments how to make this substitution.
The County Exec - General Department and the Fiscal Affairs Department are two
areas making this substitution in 2007.
Thanks.

Fw: Response to collections audit

m-JH-tb comments on 05-06 audit Dec 28 06.doc

I met with Tom on this. His first draft had a lot of editorializing in it.
The intent of the review was corrections of factual errors so we scaled it
back. I expect we will have a formal opportunity to respond to the substance
of the audit. We should probably meet to talk about it when you have time.
Let me know.

INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM

TO:

CINDY ARCHER, DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES

FROM:

ROY DE LA ROSA, MILWAUKEE COUNTY INTERGOVERNMENTAL RELATIONS DIRECTOR

SUBJECT:

EARMARK REQUESTS FOR FEDERAL FISCAL YEAR 2008

DATE:

10/16/2014

CC:

MILWAUKEE COUNTY BOARD CHAIRMAN LEE HOLLOWAY, RON WATERMAN OF
WATERMAN & ASSOCIATES, TERRY COOLEY, MILWAUKEE COUNTY BOARD CHIEF OF
STAFF, LINDA SEEMEYER, DIRECTOR OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES

At this morning’s meeting you were aware of the fact that Congresswoman Gwen Moore contacted
Milwaukee County, through the Chairman’s office, regarding the potential opportunity to, as part of
the federal government’s annual appropriation cycle, set aside, or “earmark” funds. Specifically, the
Congresswoman has invited Milwaukee County to submit project proposals to her office for Fiscal
Year 2008. This form must be completed for each potential request prior to being submitted to the
Congresswoman by the deadline.
As we discussed, the Congresswoman has indicated that her office must receive proposals for
projects by January 15, 2007. While this deadline might be short, the Chairman expressed his strong
wish that we seize this potential opportunity to secure additional resources from the federal
government.
Pursuant to today’s meeting, it was determined that the Department of Administration would request
that Department heads submit, for consideration, their ideas for possible earmarks by January 16,
2007. Copies of the requests that department heads submit to the Department of Administration
should be carbon copied to: Terry Cooley and Intergovernmental Relations (Roy de la Rosa and
Kelly Bablitch).
As you know, the Chairman has charged Milwaukee County’s federal lobbyist, Ron Waterman of
Waterman & Associates, with the responsibility of coordinating this undertaking. As discussed,
consultation with the Congresswoman’s office and Waterman & Associates, will be able to provide
department heads with technical assistance with their response to this request.
Furthermore, if you have any questions about the appropriations process or eligibility of a particular
program, Mr. Waterman and his staff will work with Andrew Stevens in the Congresswoman’s office
to facilitate an answer. I respectfully request that you forward all project proposals you want
considered for a federal earmark to my office by January 16, 2007. At my request, Mr. Waterman will
forward all projects deemed eligible by the Chairman for consideration to the Congresswoman’s
office by January 31, 2007, as requested.

Housing funds
Tuesday, January 02, 2007 6:07:59 PM

I was at a meeting with CEX and Rob Henken and he indicated that the 2006
budget included $1.5 million in housing funds (DHS funds). He said half of it
was budgeted as operating funds and half budgeted as bonding. Does this ring a
bell? In any event, he said he had three projects he was consdering and it
sounded like we were going to be contracting with providers for housing. Can
you get back to me on the source of the $1.5 million, get clarification on
Human Services wants to use the $ and confirm that we can used bond proceeds
for what they are planning.    Dan if you are in tomorrow, stop in and I will
give you a copy of a letter related to his. Thanks.

I had discussed the depreciation issue and disclosure with Cindy after our
emails and conversations. I am preparing a brief explanation of the issue for
her. In addition, I need the financial impact of the depreciation expense in
2006 and 2007 so that we know the impact in the current year. Did you make any
adjustments to the depreciation expense for the 2007 budget so that we can
determine if we need to make an adjustment for the 2008 budget?
Is it possible to have the fixed asset entries for 2006 completed by January 31
so that we can plan the impact and disclose the magnitude of the problem?

Hi:
I was looking at the surplus/deficit report and noticed that IMSD had a surplus
so I looked at their budget and saw the $1.4 million entry for residual equity
transfer. Therefore, the general fund would be paying for the depreciation from
IMSD. You may recall that I had mentioned this in our conversation regarding
the proposed transfer. My recommendation would be to disclose that we have
assets in proprietary funds that should have been fully depreciated but were
CArcher_Email3010430

not for various reasons. I further recommended that we explain that entries
will have to be made to proprietary funds to correct the issue.

Pam, please see below draft correspondence from Walker regarding needed
statutory language for POBs. Have yoiu seen the draft legislation? Also,
according to the Board amendment description, we would need further statutory
changes related to our ability to "use alternative debt instruments (other than
GO bonds)". Is that your understanding?

Madison, Wisconsin 5302
Dear Honorable Elected Officials,
As you know, I have gone to great efforts to point out the difficulties Milwaukee County faces in
securing our long term financial stability as a result of the pension and sick leave benefits
previously passes, as well as skyrocketing health care costs.
Since I first began my public education initiative the Greater Milwaukee Committee and
Governor Doyle each commissioned task forces to make recommendations on potential
solutions. Both the GMC and the state task force agreed with an initiative I have proposed,
pension obligation bonds.
To be sure, the use of the bonds does provide some much-needed, and immediate, cash
assistance to the County. More important, however, the bonds will help us stabilize our pension
obligations in our efforts to manage the long-term fiscal solvency of our county.
In order to proceed, however, state statutes would be required to be changed to permit
Milwaukee County to issue debt for terms of up to 30 years, as opposed to the 20 years currently
authorized. Milwaukee County is the only unit of government in Wisconsin currently prohibited
from pursuing this option. The State of Wisconsin, in fact, recently itself issued pension
obligation bonds.
Attached for your review and information is draft legislation that I am asking you to consider.
As we continue to evaluate and manage the financial crunch at Milwaukee County we are
mindful of the tight fiscal situation in state government as well. Permitting Milwaukee County
to authorize pension obligation bonds for 30 years rather than 20 is a tool that the state can
provide to the county without an additional cost.

CArcher_Email3010435

Thank you in advance for your consideration. I am hopeful that working together you will
consider quickly drafting and introducing this legislation and seeking out a bipartisan coalition to
send it to Governor Doyle as soon as possible. As always, I would be happy to speak to you
about this matter.
Sincerely,

Scott Walker
Milwaukee County Executive

        Draft St. Mike's Report





Good morning. Attached is a draft of the County Board report on St. Mike's
that would be forwarded this month for referral. The deadline for getting this
to the appropriate committees is the end of next week. I would also like to
run it by the Wheaton Franciscan people before submitting.
As you will see, I tried to err on the side of giving too much information, and
I have attempted to lay out our thought process as this negotiation has
unfolded. In talking to Supervisors about this, I have emphasized that we all
understand that we do not yet possess nearly enough information to make a final
decision, but that we do not think it is appropriate to spend the dollars to
obtain that information unless we have their authorization to do so.
Please let me know your thoughts, comments, etc. Once all of you have approved
this, I will draft an accompanying resolution based on the final report. Chuck
Brotz will do the fiscal note, which will only deal with the $200,000 we are
asking to spend, and not the actual potential deal. Thanks!
-- Rob
P.S. I have now talked to every member of the County Board about this except
Coggs-Jones (who is away) and DeBruin (who has not yet returned my call). I
have not had a single objection to pursuing the St. Mike's deal. The point of
CArcher_Email3010437

controversy appears to be whether we should be RFP'ing the existing property at
this time, and whether we should try to lock away the net sale proceeds for a
specific use or uses. I got a voice mail yesterday from Terry Cooley
indicating the Chairman may want to take the BHD land sale issue up separately,
but was unable to connect with him to discuss. If that is the case, I will
also need direction as to whether to strip that piece from the
report/resolution, or move it forward as is and allow them to take the BHD RFP
out if they would like.

Policy Issue
Per authorization contained in the 2006 Adopted Budget, the Department of Health and Human
Services (DHHS) and the Economic and Community Development Division (ECD) have been
exploring potential alternative locations for the Behavioral Health Division (BHD) to conduct its
inpatient and nursing home operations. In May 2006, subsequent to an announcement by
Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare (WFH) of plans to discontinue hospital inpatient operations at
St. Michael Hospital, DHHS and ECD initiated discussions with WFH regarding the possible
utilization of that site. Those discussions have included high-level architectural analysis funded
by WFH to determine the efficacy of BHD utilization of the site and the square footage
necessary for such utilization, as well as discussion regarding the potential terms of a lease or
sale agreement.
The high-level analysis that has been conducted to date, as well as progress made on broad
lease/sale negotiations, has led the Directors of DHHS and ECD to tentatively conclude that a
lease or purchase of the St. Michael property – coupled with the sale of the property currently
occupied by BHD – could provide a vastly improved location for BHD inpatient and long-term
care operations and generate significant annual overhead savings that could be utilized to
enhance those operations. This action also holds potential to allow the County to consolidate
other activities at the St. Michael’s location, which could produce fiscal and programmatic
benefits for other County departments.

Relocation of BHD Inpatient Operations

However, a final recommendation to pursue this course of action cannot be made without
additional engineering and environmental analysis of the St. Michael building and property,
additional architectural analysis to better estimate the cost of necessary building renovations,
outside legal assistance to negotiate a final lease or sale agreement, and the issuance of a Request
for Proposals (RFP) to definitively determine whether the sale price of BHD’s existing property
would significantly exceed the amount needed to purchase and renovate the St. Michael building
and relocate BHD. Consequently, the Directors of DHHS and ECD are seeking authorization
from the County Board to make expenditures on the items listed above in an amount not to
exceed $200,000 – and to issue an RFP for the sale of the BHD property – so that they can
negotiate a lease or sale agreement with WFH and provide policymakers with the information
they need to determine whether such an agreement is in the best interest of Milwaukee County.
This report describes the general terms of a lease or sale agreement that have been discussed with
WFH, and it contains estimates of annual operating savings that BHD might experience if its
operations were to be relocated to the St. Michael site, as well as the potential cost of building
renovation. While the authors believe this report contains sufficient information to allow
policymakers to determine whether an expenditure of up to $200,000 to develop a final lease or
sale agreement for the St. Michael property is in the County’s best interest, it is acknowledged
and emphasized that sufficient due diligence has not been conducted to determine whether the
terms of such a final agreement ultimately will be beneficial to the County. Such due diligence
cannot be conducted without the expenditure of funds on the items outlined above, for which
County Board authorization is deemed necessary and appropriate.
Background/Analysis
Why BHD Has Explored Relocation
The Behavioral Health Division currently occupies approximately 25 acres of land and 591,000
square feet of space on the County Grounds at 9455 Watertown Plank Road in Wauwatosa.
Presently, BHD operates acute inpatient, crisis service and two long-term care facilities (nursing
home and intermediate care) with an average daily census of 250 patients. In 1992, BHD
operated with a licensed bed capacity of 874.
While BHD’s inpatient census has decreased dramatically during the past 15 years, it still
continues to occupy most of the sprawling Mental Health Complex campus. 1 The Complex not
only houses inpatient and long-term care operations, but also BHD’s Adult and Community
1

An exception is the former Children and Adolescent Treatment Center (CATC) buildings at 9501 West Watertown
Plan Road, which was vacated by BHD in 2002. CATC then housed the County Health Programs Division (CHP),
and a significant portion was leased to St. Charles Youth and Family Services for residential services provided to
youth served by the Delinquency and Court Services Division. CHP vacated its part of the building in November
2006 and moved to the Coggs Human Services Center. A decision to sell the BHD property could include the 17acre CATC site, which would require St. Charles to find an alternative location.

Services Branch and Wraparound-Milwaukee program and the myriad of case management,
fiscal, quality assurance and other staff that support those programs. As staff associated with
outpatient programs grew during the 1990s, they moved into space formerly occupied by
inpatient and nursing home operations. This was not necessarily the most efficient use of that
space, but it made sense at the time given the availability of that space and the desire to have all
of BHD’s operations co-located.
As DHHS and BHD administrators have struggled to identify budget savings during the past
several years in light of the County’s overall fiscal challenges, they have particularly sought to
reduce overhead costs as an alternative to reductions in direct services to clients. The annual
operating cost for BHD’s occupation of the Mental Health Complex site is approximately $9.9
million, which includes the cost of heating and cooling, janitorial/housekeeping, security,
maintenance, external time/material contractors, fire protection and grounds. Unfortunately, in
light of the sprawling nature of the complex, there is little or no ability to significantly reduce
those costs. It is believed, however, that were BHD able to identify an alternative location that
more closely matches its inpatient and long-term care capacity needs, and that utilizes space that
has been specifically designed for non-hospital functions to meet its other space needs, then it
could occupy a far smaller facility that would produce significant operational savings.
Another rationale for seeking an alternative location is the considerable amount of maintenance
required on the Mental Health Complex. The Complex was constructed in the late 1970s and is
facing significant major maintenance needs typical of any structure that is reaching 40 years of
useful life. BHD has identified capital improvement projects totaling approximately $8 million
in its five-year capital plan, but a comprehensive building analysis has not been conducted for
quite some time, and such an analysis likely would reveal a much higher level of need (including
a new roof). In addition, if BHD were to seek re-establishment of JCAHO accreditation – which
it relinquished in 2003 due to fiscal constraints – then the cost of capital improvements would
grow higher still.
Finally, it is impossible to ignore the fact that the land on which the Mental Health Complex is
located is one of the most valuable pieces of property remaining in Milwaukee County in light of
its prime location adjacent to the Milwaukee County Research Park and top medical institutions.
Given BHD’s ongoing fiscal challenges, it is logical to ask whether its operations might be more
effectively conducted at an alternative location that would then enable the County to sell the
existing property and utilize a significant portion of the net sale proceeds to enhance clinical
operations.
Why the St. Michael Site Could be an Ideal Alternative Location
St. Michael Hospital is located on 13.1 acres of land at 2400 and 2350 West Villard Avenue in
Milwaukee. The property – which consists of the hospital building and an adjacent professional
office building – includes approximately 605,000 square feet of building space and an 84,000
square foot parking structure. The hospital building was constructed in 1954 but has undergone

CArcher_Email3010441

Relocation of BHD Inpatient Operations
Page 4

1/12/2007

several significant renovations and additions since that time, including construction of a new
surgery center as recently as 2004.
When WFH announced it decision to relocate St. Michael inpatient and emergency services in
May, DHHS and ECD saw an immediate opportunity to explore use of the site as a potential
alternative location for BHD. The potential attraction to the St. Michael site was based on the
following:
•

A portion of the St. Michael campus had already been configured for inpatient behavioral
health operations. St. Michael formerly housed 22 behavioral health inpatient beds, and its
inpatient behavioral health wing underwent significant renovations in 1993 and 2001.

•

While WFH planned to relocate its inpatient and emergency services, it intended to retain its
Family Care Center at the St. Michael campus, which it operates in conjunction with the
Medical College of Wisconsin. The Family Care Center provides pre-natal, pediatric, adult,
women’s and geriatric care, disease management and community medicine. The existence of
an on-site clinic to serve the physical health needs of central city residents could have
outstanding synergy with BHD’s behavioral health operations.

•

St. Michael was constructed to house 405 inpatient beds. While the size of the building
therefore still exceeds the capacity needs of BHD, the overall acreage of the St. Michael
campus is significantly smaller than that of the Mental Health Complex, which once housed
more than 870 inpatient beds.

•

The site is located in an economically disadvantaged area of the City of Milwaukee that
could benefit greatly from the more than 700 workers that BHD potentially would house at
the site. In addition, the St. Michael location is more accessible to the indigent population
that is primarily served by BHD.

Preparing the Groundwork for Negotiations
One of the key questions that immediately needed to be determined before serious negotiations
could take place was whether BHD’s 250 beds – including up to 144 long-term care beds with
special licensing requirements – could comfortably fit in the St. Michael campus while
preserving other parts of the campus for alternative uses. At the time that initial discussions
commenced, WFH still intended to preserve not only the Family Care Center, but also its
Outpatient Surgery Center, Imaging, Pain Center and Professional Office Building.
Consequently, it was critical to determine whether BHD’s operations could fit into vacant parts
of the campus, and whether BHD’s use of the campus could co-exist both logistically and
programmatically with WFH’s other intended uses.
In order to answer that question, WFH engaged the assistance of outside architects to work with
BHD staff in identifying its space needs and configuring those needs within the vacant portions
of the St. Michael campus. That effort yielded identification of approximately 365,000 square

CArcher_Email3010442

Relocation of BHD Inpatient Operations
Page 5

1/12/2007

feet of space that could meet BHD’s needs in parts of the campus that did not physically conflict
with the other uses WFH had originally intended. However, WFH determined while this
planning effort was ongoing that if BHD were to occupy the building, then it would no longer
desire to house any of its outpatient operations at the site, and that the physicians who practiced
at the Professional Office Building would no longer want to do so alongside BHD’s operations.
Consequently, WFH informed DHHS and ECD that a requirement of any agreement would be
the County’s willingness to lease or purchase the entire campus, with a sub-lease back to WFH
for the Family Care Center.
The architectural analysis also yielded a very rough cost estimate of renovations that may be
required to house BHD’s operations. That estimate was presented as three different options: a
high cost option at $26.4 million, a moderate cost option of $19 million, and a low cost option of
$15.8 million. All of these estimates include contingencies and soft costs.
It is believed that the high cost option is unnecessary and impractical, and that a more realistic
estimate is the range presented by the low and moderate cost options. However, it is critical to
note that even those estimates are very high-level and were developed with little analysis of
actual structural modifications that would be required. Instead, they relied upon a rough cost
estimate per square foot of the type of renovation required for various parts of the building (e.g.
conversion of physical inpatient room to behavioral inpatient room, inpatient room to office,
etc.). It is also critical to note that this cost range assumes that BHD would relocate all parts of
its existing operation to the St. Michael campus. Should the next stage of due diligence be
authorized, BHD would consider whether further downsizing of its long-term care operations
would be necessary and appropriate in light of changes in State policies governing those areas, as
well as whether certain community-based programs (such as Wraparound Milwaukee) might
potentially be located elsewhere.
Once the approximate amount of space and its potential location on the campus was identified,
BHD also was able to develop a high-level cost comparison between operations at the Mental
Health Complex and potential operations at the St. Michael campus. Attachment A shows that
comparison, which indicates that BHD could potentially save $2.3 million annually. This
estimate obviously would need to be further refined as decisions are made going forward
regarding other potential uses of the building, as well as BHD’s precise configuration and
programmatic needs.
Terms of a Possible Agreement
Once it was determined that BHD’s operations could be accommodated at the St. Michael
campus, the two sides began discussing possible terms of a lease agreement. The County’s
initial position was that it simply wanted to move into the St. Michael location as a tenant,
paying fair market value for the 365,000 square feet it desired and the renovations that would
render the space suitable to its needs. WFH took the position, however, that in light of its
assessment that it would be extremely difficult to secure other tenants for the remainder of the
campus due to the nature of BHD’s operations, the County would need to lease the entire

CArcher_Email3010443

Relocation of BHD Inpatient Operations
Page 6

1/12/2007

campus, with the exception of the space required by the Family Care Center. It proposed a longterm lease of 25 years that would end with County ownership of the facility.
Faced with a scenario of having BHD again saddled with a facility that was too big for its needs,
DHHS and ECD consulted with the Director of Administrative Services to consider whether
there were other potential County uses for the remainder of the facility. It was determined that
there may indeed be such uses, but that the County should only agree to take responsibility for
the entire campus if it could secure the space needed for BHD’s operations for little or no annual
rent. WFH expressed general agreement with that condition, but countered that it would need to
be reimbursed for the cost of relocating those functions still at St. Michael (other than the Family
Care Center) to alternative locations. WFH also insisted that it receive fair market value lease
payments for space at St. Michael not utilized by BHD and occupied by other County
departments or outside entities. The two sides also discussed whether it would be logical to
consider a direct sale of the St. Michael property rather than a long-term lease ending in County
ownership, and it was agreed that both options would be considered as negotiations moved
forward.
Hence, the agreement currently under consideration would consist of the following general
elements:
1. The County would acquire the entire St. Michael property and adjacent professional office
building under a purchase agreement or long-term lease ending in full County ownership.
The space used for operation of the Family Care Center would be excluded from a lease or,
under a purchase scenario, leased back to WFH for only the cost of utilities and other direct
costs associated with its operation.
2. Under a long-term lease agreement, the annual rent for BHD’s occupation of the leased
premises would be $1.00. The County would be required to pay WFH fair market value for
any space occupied by the County above the estimated 365,000 square feet needed by BHD,
and the County would be responsible for providing WFH any revenue received through lease
of the premises to third parties. In addition, the County would provide WFH with a payment
of between $3 million and $6 million (the precise amount would be subject to additional
negotiation) over a multi-year time period to cover costs associated with relocating WFH
outpatient services currently located at St. Michael.
3. Under a sale agreement, the County would purchase the property for a price of between $3
million and $7.5 million, with the precise payment amount and payment terms subject to
additional negotiation.
4. The property would be sold or leased by WFH to the County in an “as is” condition and the
County would assume responsibility for all major maintenance or repair and any liability
related to the premises. The County would seek a catastrophic protection clause for
mechanicals in the building for a mutually determined period of time.

Conclusion
It is impossible at this point to determine whether an agreement per the general conditions
outlined above is in the best interest of Milwaukee County. Key questions that must be
researched and analyzed before such a decision can be made include the following:
o What is the physical condition of the St. Michael buildings and mechanicals? Some initial
inspection, evaluation and review of building records has occurred, which lead DHHS and
ECD to conclude that the building is in good condition, but significant additional analysis
must be performed.
o Are there any significant environmental or other liabilities associated with the property that
would become the responsibility of Milwaukee County?
o Are there other potential County or non-County uses for the square footage that would not be
occupied by BHD? Unless the remaining space is occupied by some other entity or entities,
one could argue that BHD would simply be trading one oversized facility for another.
However, the St. Michael campus possesses a professional office building that could be an
outstanding location for other County uses and that could produce significant annual
operating savings for several other County departments.
o What is a more refined estimate of renovation costs at St. Michael, and how do those costs
compare with projected major maintenance and capital improvement costs at the existing
facility?
o Could BHD use the opportunity of a change in location and the operational savings that
would be generated by this change to re-define its precise role in providing inpatient mental
health care in this community and secure for itself the resources needed to excel in that role?
o What would be the eventual sale price of BHD’s existing property? The answer to this
question is perhaps the key to determining whether this proposal makes sense for the County.
If the sale price significantly exceeds the combined cost of the purchase, renovation and
move to the St. Michael property, then it would certainly appear to be logical to pursue it
given the projected annual operating savings for BHD.
The Directors of DHHS and ECD believe that there is sufficient reason to believe that the
answers to the above questions will produce favorable information to justify the expenditure of
up to $200,000 and the additional staff time necessary to generate those answers.
Recommendation
It is recommended that the County Board of Supervisors authorize the Directors of DHHS and
ECD to: 1) spend up to $200,000 for additional engineering and environmental analysis of the St.
Michael building and property, additional architectural analysis to better estimate the cost of

CArcher_Email3010445

Relocation of BHD Inpatient Operations
Page 8

1/12/2007

necessary building renovations to house BHD, and outside legal assistance to negotiate a final
lease or sale agreement; 2) prepare and issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the purchase of
BHD’s existing property; and 3) negotiate a final agreement with WFH for the long-term lease or
purchase of the St. Michael Hospital property and submit such agreement to the County Board of
Supervisors for its consideration, hopefully by the June 2007 committee cycle.
Fiscal Impact
Adoption of this recommendation would authorize the expenditure of up to $200,000 and
significant staff time. With the assistance of DAS, the $200,000 already has been encumbered
from a combination of 2006 DHHS surplus ($150,000) and the $50,000 included in ECD’s
budget to study alternative locations for BHD. Hence, these expenditures would come from the
2006 Budget, and the only fiscal impact would be a reduction in the size of DHHS’ surplus,
which was projected at approximately $3.6 million as of the end of the third quarter. If the
dollars are not spent, then they would fall to the bottom line for 2006. A fiscal note form is
attached.

Jim, do you have a copy of the draft legislation? It looks like we may need
statutory changes other than just doing 30 year GO bonds. I am looking into it.

Dear Honorable Elected Officials,
As you know, I have gone to great efforts to point out the difficulties Milwaukee County faces in
securing our long term financial stability as a result of the pension and sick leave benefits
previously passes, as well as skyrocketing health care costs.
Since I first began my public education initiative the Greater Milwaukee Committee and
Governor Doyle each commissioned task forces to make recommendations on potential
solutions. Both the GMC and the state task force agreed with an initiative I have proposed,
pension obligation bonds.
To be sure, the use of the bonds does provide some much-needed, and immediate, cash
assistance to the County. More important, however, the bonds will help us stabilize our pension
obligations in our efforts to manage the long-term fiscal solvency of our county.
In order to proceed, however, state statutes would be required to be changed to permit
Milwaukee County to issue debt for terms of up to 30 years, as opposed to the 20 years currently
authorized. Milwaukee County is the only unit of government in Wisconsin currently prohibited
from pursuing this option. The State of Wisconsin, in fact, recently itself issued pension
obligation bonds.
Attached for your review and information is draft legislation that I am asking you to consider.
As we continue to evaluate and manage the financial crunch at Milwaukee County we are
mindful of the tight fiscal situation in state government as well. Permitting Milwaukee County
to authorize pension obligation bonds for 30 years rather than 20 is a tool that the state can
provide to the county without an additional cost.

CArcher_Email3010450

Thank you in advance for your consideration. I am hopeful that working together you will
consider quickly drafting and introducing this legislation and seeking out a bipartisan coalition to
send it to Governor Doyle as soon as possible. As always, I would be happy to speak to you
about this matter.
Sincerely,

Scott Walker
Milwaukee County Executive

NEGOTIATIONS

Policy Issue
Per authorization contained in the 2006 Adopted Budget, the Department of Health and Human
Services (DHHS) and the Economic and Community Development Division (ECD) have been
exploring potential alternative locations for the Behavioral Health Division (BHD) to conduct its
inpatient and nursing home operations. In May 2006, subsequent to an announcement by
Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare (WFH) of plans to discontinue hospital inpatient operations at
St. Michael Hospital, DHHS and ECD initiated discussions with WFH regarding the possible
utilization of that site. Those discussions have included high-level architectural analysis funded
by WFH to determine the efficacy of BHD utilization of the site and the square footage
necessary for such utilization, as well as discussion regarding the potential terms of a lease or
sale agreement.
The high-level analysis that has been conducted to date, as well as progress made on broad
lease/sale negotiations, has led the Directors of DHHS and ECD to tentatively conclude that a
lease or purchase of the St. Michael property could provide a vastly improved location for BHD
inpatient and long-term care operations and generate significant annual overhead savings that
could be utilized to enhance those operations. This action also holds potential to allow the
County to consolidate other activities at the St. Michael location, which could produce fiscal and
programmatic benefits for other County departments.
However, a final recommendation to pursue this course of action cannot be made without
additional engineering and environmental analysis of the St. Michael building and property,

CArcher_Email3010456

Relocation of BHD Inpatient Operations
Page 2

1/10/2007

additional architectural analysis to better estimate the cost of necessary building renovations, and
outside legal assistance to negotiate a final lease or sale agreement. Consequently, the Directors
of DHHS and ECD are seeking authorization from the County Board to make expenditures on
the items listed above in an amount not to exceed $200,000 so that they can negotiate a lease or
sale agreement with WFH and provide policymakers with the information they need to determine
whether such an agreement is in the best interest of Milwaukee County.
This report describes the general terms of a lease or sale agreement that have been discussed with
WFH, and it contains estimates of annual operating savings that BHD might experience if its
operations were to be relocated to the St. Michael site, as well as the potential cost of building
renovation. While the authors believe this report contains sufficient information to allow
policymakers to determine whether an expenditure of up to $200,000 to develop a final lease or
sale agreement for the St. Michael property is in the County’s best interest, it is acknowledged
and emphasized that sufficient due diligence has not been conducted to determine whether the
terms of such a final agreement ultimately will be beneficial to the County. Such due diligence
cannot be conducted without the expenditure of funds on the items outlined above, for which
County Board authorization is deemed necessary and appropriate.
Background/Analysis
Why BHD Has Explored Relocation
The Behavioral Health Division currently occupies approximately 25 acres of land and 591,000
square feet of space on the County Grounds at 9455 Watertown Plank Road in Wauwatosa.
Presently, BHD operates acute inpatient, crisis service and two long-term care facilities (nursing
home and intermediate care) with an average daily census of 250 patients. In 1992, BHD
operated with a licensed bed capacity of 874.
While BHD’s inpatient census has decreased dramatically during the past 15 years, it still
continues to occupy most of the sprawling Mental Health Complex campus. 1 The Complex not
only houses inpatient and long-term care operations, but also BHD’s Adult and Community
Services Branch and Wraparound-Milwaukee program and the myriad of case management,
fiscal, quality assurance and other staff that support those programs. As staff associated with
outpatient programs grew during the 1990s, they moved into space formerly occupied by
inpatient and nursing home operations. This was not necessarily the most efficient use of that
space, but it made sense at the time given the availability of that space and the desire to have all
of BHD’s operations co-located.
1

An exception is the former Children and Adolescent Treatment Center (CATC) buildings at 9501 West Watertown
Plan Road, which was vacated by BHD in 2002. CATC then housed the County Health Programs Division (CHP),
and a significant portion was leased to St. Charles Youth and Family Services for residential services provided to
youth served by the Delinquency and Court Services Division. CHP vacated its part of the building in November
2006 and moved to the Coggs Human Services Center. A decision to sell the BHD property could include the 17acre CATC site, which would require St. Charles to find an alternative location.

CArcher_Email3010457

Relocation of BHD Inpatient Operations

As DHHS and BHD administrators have struggled to identify budget savings during the past
several years in light of the County’s overall fiscal challenges, they have particularly sought to
reduce overhead costs as an alternative to reductions in direct services to clients. The annual
operating cost for BHD’s occupation of the Mental Health Complex site is approximately $9.9
million, which includes the cost of heating and cooling, janitorial/housekeeping, security,
maintenance, external time/material contractors, fire protection and grounds. Unfortunately, in
light of the sprawling nature of the complex, there is little or no ability to significantly reduce
those costs. It is believed, however, that were BHD able to identify an alternative location that
more closely matches its inpatient and long-term care capacity needs, and that utilizes space that
has been specifically designed for non-hospital functions to meet its other space needs, then it
could occupy a far smaller facility that would produce significant operational savings.
Another rationale for seeking an alternative location is the considerable amount of maintenance
required on the Mental Health Complex. The Complex was constructed in the late 1970s and is
facing significant major maintenance needs typical of any structure that is reaching 30 years of
useful life. BHD has identified capital improvement projects totaling approximately $8 million
in its five-year capital plan, but a comprehensive building analysis has not been conducted for
quite some time, and such an analysis likely would reveal a much higher level of need (including
a new roof). In addition, if BHD were to seek re-establishment of JCAHO accreditation – which
it relinquished in 2003 due to fiscal constraints – then the cost of capital improvements would
grow higher still.
Finally, it is impossible to ignore the fact that the land on which the Mental Health Complex is
located is one of the most valuable pieces of property remaining in Milwaukee County in light of
its prime location adjacent to the Milwaukee County Research Park and top medical institutions.
Given BHD’s ongoing fiscal challenges, it is logical to ask whether its operations might be more
effectively conducted at an alternative location that may then enable the County to sell the
existing property and utilize a significant portion of the net sale proceeds to enhance clinical
operations.
Why the St. Michael Site Could be an Ideal Alternative Location
St. Michael Hospital is located on 13.1 acres of land at 2400 and 2350 West Villard Avenue in
Milwaukee. The property – which consists of the hospital building and an adjacent professional
office building – includes approximately 605,000 square feet of building space and an 84,000
square foot parking structure. The hospital building was constructed in 1954 but has undergone
several significant renovations and additions since that time, including construction of a new
surgery center as recently as 2004.
When WFH announced its decision to relocate St. Michael inpatient and emergency services in
May, DHHS and ECD saw an immediate opportunity to explore use of the site as a potential
alternative location for BHD. The potential attraction to the St. Michael site was based on the
following:

CArcher_Email3010458

Relocation of BHD Inpatient Operations
Page 4

1/10/2007

•

A portion of the St. Michael campus had already been configured for inpatient behavioral
health operations. St. Michael formerly housed 42 behavioral health inpatient beds, and its
inpatient behavioral health wing underwent significant renovations in 1993 and 2001.

•

While WFH planned to relocate its inpatient and emergency services, it intended to retain its
Family Care Center at the St. Michael campus, which it operates in conjunction with the
Medical College of Wisconsin. The Family Care Center provides pre-natal, pediatric, adult,
women’s and geriatric care, disease management and community medicine. The existence of
an on-site clinic to serve the physical health needs of central city residents could have
outstanding synergy with BHD’s behavioral health operations.

•

St. Michael was constructed to house 405 inpatient beds. While the size of the building
therefore still exceeds the capacity needs of BHD, the overall acreage of the St. Michael
campus is significantly smaller than that of the Mental Health Complex, which once housed
more than 870 inpatient beds.

•

The site is located in an economically disadvantaged area of the City of Milwaukee that
could benefit greatly from the more than 700 workers that BHD potentially would house at
the site. In addition, the St. Michael location is more accessible to the indigent population
that is primarily served by BHD.

Preparing the Groundwork for Negotiations
One of the key questions that immediately needed to be determined before serious negotiations
could take place was whether BHD’s 252 beds – including up to 144 long-term care beds with
special licensing requirements – could comfortably fit in the St. Michael campus while
preserving other parts of the campus for alternative uses.
In order to answer that question, WFH engaged the assistance of outside architects to work with
BHD staff in identifying its space needs and configuring those needs within the vacant portions
of the St. Michael campus. That effort yielded identification of approximately 365,000 square
feet of space that could meet BHD’s needs in parts of the campus that did not physically conflict
with other potential uses. However, because WFH raised a concern that there may be limited
potential use by other parties for the remainder of the building, they informed DHHS and ECD
that a requirement of any agreement would be the County’s willingness to lease or purchase the
entire campus, with a sub-lease back to WFH for the Family Care Center.
The architectural analysis also yielded a very rough cost estimate of renovations that may be
required to house BHD’s operations. That estimate was presented as three different options: a
high cost option at $26.4 million, a moderate cost option of $19 million, and a low cost option of
$15.8 million. All of these estimates include contingencies and soft costs.
It is believed that the high cost option is unnecessary and impractical, and that a more realistic
estimate is the range presented by the low and moderate cost options. However, it is critical to

CArcher_Email3010459

Relocation of BHD Inpatient Operations
Page 5

1/10/2007

note that even those estimates are very high-level and were developed with little analysis of
actual structural modifications that would be required. Instead, they relied upon a rough cost
estimate per square foot of the type of renovation required for various parts of the building (e.g.
conversion of physical inpatient room to behavioral inpatient room, inpatient room to office,
etc.). It is also critical to note that this cost range assumes that BHD would relocate all parts of
its existing operation to the St. Michael campus. Should the next stage of due diligence be
authorized, BHD would consider whether further downsizing of its long-term care operations
would be necessary and appropriate in light of changes in State policies governing those areas, as
well as whether certain community-based programs (such as Wraparound Milwaukee) might
potentially be located elsewhere.
Once the approximate amount of space and its potential location on the campus was identified,
BHD also was able to develop a high-level cost comparison between operations at the Mental
Health Complex and potential operations at the St. Michael campus. Attachment A shows that
comparison, which indicates that BHD could potentially save $2.3 million annually. This
estimate obviously would need to be further refined as decisions are made going forward
regarding other potential uses of the building, as well as BHD’s precise configuration and
programmatic needs.
Terms of a Possible Agreement
Once it was determined that BHD’s operations could be accommodated at the St. Michael
campus, the two sides began discussing possible terms of a lease agreement. The County’s
initial position was that it simply wanted to move into the St. Michael location as a tenant,
paying fair market value for the 365,000 square feet it desired and the renovations that would
render the space suitable to its needs. WFH took the position, however, that in light of its
assessment that it would be extremely difficult to secure other tenants for the remainder of the
campus due to the nature of BHD’s operations, the County would need to lease the entire
campus, with the exception of the space required by the Family Care Center. It proposed a longterm lease of 25 years that would end with County ownership of the facility.
Faced with a scenario of having BHD again saddled with a facility that was too big for its needs,
DHHS and ECD consulted with the Director of Administrative Services to consider whether
there were other potential County uses for the remainder of the facility. It was determined that
there may indeed be such uses, but that the County should only agree to take responsibility for
the entire campus if it could secure the space needed for BHD’s operations for little or no annual
rent. WFH expressed general agreement with that condition, but countered that it would need to
be reimbursed for the cost of relocating those functions still at St. Michael other than the Family
Care Center (Outpatient Surgery Center, Imaging, Pain Center and Professional Office Building)
to alternative locations. WFH also insisted that it receive fair market value lease payments for
space at St. Michael not utilized by BHD and occupied by other County departments or outside
entities. The two sides also discussed whether it would be logical to consider a direct sale of the
St. Michael property rather than a long-term lease ending in County ownership, and it was
agreed that both options would be considered as negotiations moved forward.

CArcher_Email3010460

Relocation of BHD Inpatient Operations
Page 6

1/10/2007

Hence, the agreement currently under consideration would consist of the following general
elements:
1. The County would acquire the entire St. Michael property and adjacent professional office
building under a purchase agreement or long-term lease ending in full County ownership.
The space used for operation of the Family Care Center would be excluded from a lease or,
under a purchase scenario, leased back to WFH for only the cost of utilities and other direct
costs associated with its operation.
2. Under a long-term lease agreement, the annual rent for BHD’s occupation of the leased
premises would be $1.00. The County would be required to pay WFH fair market value for
any space occupied by the County above the estimated 365,000 square feet needed by BHD,
and the County would be responsible for providing WFH any revenue received through lease
of the premises to third parties. In addition, the County would provide WFH with a payment
of between $3 million and $6 million (the precise amount would be subject to additional
negotiation) over a multi-year time period to cover costs associated with relocating WFH
outpatient services currently located at St. Michael.
3. Under a sale agreement, the County would purchase the property for a price of between $4.5
million and $7.5 million, with the precise payment amount and payment terms subject to
additional negotiation.
4. The property would be sold or leased by WFH to the County in an “as is” condition and the
County would assume responsibility for all major maintenance or repair and any liability
related to the premises. The County would seek a catastrophic protection clause for
mechanicals in the building for a mutually determined period of time.
Conclusion
The ability to determine whether an agreement per the general conditions outlined above is in the
best interest of Milwaukee County is predicated on the answers to several key questions that
must be researched and analyzed, including the following:
o What is the physical condition of the St. Michael buildings and mechanicals? Some initial
inspection, evaluation and review of building records has occurred, which lead DHHS and
ECD to conclude that the building is in good condition, but significant additional analysis
must be performed.
o Are there any significant environmental or other liabilities associated with the property that
would become the responsibility of Milwaukee County?
o Are there other potential County or non-County uses for the square footage that would not be
occupied by BHD? Unless the remaining space is occupied by some other entity or entities,

CArcher_Email3010461

Relocation of BHD Inpatient Operations
Page 7

1/10/2007

one could argue that BHD would simply be trading one oversized facility for another.
However, the St. Michael campus possesses a professional office building that could be an
outstanding location for other County uses and that could produce significant annual
operating savings for several other County departments.
o What is a more refined estimate of renovation costs at St. Michael, and how do those costs
compare with projected major maintenance and capital improvement costs at the existing
facility?
o Could BHD use the opportunity of a change in location and the operational savings that
would be generated by this change to re-define its precise role in providing inpatient mental
health care in this community and secure for itself the resources needed to excel in that role?
The Directors of DHHS and ECD believe that there is sufficient reason to believe that the
answers to the above questions will produce favorable information to justify the expenditure of
up to $200,000 and the additional staff time necessary to generate those answers.
Recommendation
It is recommended that the County Board of Supervisors authorize the Directors of DHHS and
ECD to: 1) spend up to $200,000 for additional engineering and environmental analysis of the St.
Michael building and property, additional architectural analysis to better estimate the cost of
necessary building renovations to house BHD, and outside legal assistance to negotiate a final
lease or sale agreement; and 2) negotiate a final agreement with WFH for the long-term lease or
purchase of the St. Michael Hospital property and submit such agreement to the County Board of
Supervisors for its consideration, hopefully by the June 2007 committee cycle.
Fiscal Impact
Adoption of this recommendation would authorize the expenditure of up to $200,000 and
significant staff time. With the assistance of DAS, $155,800 of this amount already has been
encumbered from a combination of 2006 DHHS surplus ($105,900) and $49,900 included in
ECD’s budget to study alternative locations for BHD. Hence, these expenditures would come
from the 2006 Budget, and the only fiscal impact would be a reduction in the size of DHHS’
surplus, which was projected at approximately $3.6 million as of the end of the third quarter. If
the dollars are not spent, then they would increase the County surplus. The Office of the
Corporation Counsel also has encumbered $30,000 from its 2006 budget for specialized legal
services. The $14,200 balance of the $200,000 in expenditures would come from the 2007
DHHS Operations budget, if needed. A fiscal note form is attached.

(Journal, )
(ITEM) From the Director, Department of Health and Human Services, and the Director,
Economic and Community Development, requesting authorization to negotiate with
Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare for the purchase or long-term lease of the St. Michael
Hospital facility for Behavioral Health Division inpatient and nursing home operations
and to make expenditures in an amount not to exceed $200,000 for engineering,
environmental, architectural, legal and other services necessary to complete such
negotiations, by recommending adoption of the following:
A RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, per authorization contained in the 2006 Adopted Budget, the
Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) and the Economic and Community
Development Division (ECD) have been exploring potential alternative locations for the
Behavioral Health Division (BHD) to conduct its inpatient and nursing home operations;
and
WHEREAS, in May 2006, subsequent to an announcement by Wheaton
Franciscan Healthcare (WFH) of plans to discontinue hospital inpatient operations at St.
Michael Hospital, DHHS and ECD initiated discussions with WFH regarding the possible
utilization of that site; and
WHEREAS, the high-level analysis that has been conducted to date, as well as
progress made on broad lease/sale negotiations, has led the Directors of DHHS and
ECD to tentatively conclude that a lease or purchase of the St. Michael property –
coupled with the sale of the property currently occupied by BHD – could provide a vastly
improved location for BHD inpatient and long-term care operations and generate
significant annual overhead savings that could be utilized to enhance those operations;
and
WHEREAS, this action also holds potential to allow the County to consolidate
other activities at the St. Michael location, which could produce fiscal and programmatic
benefits for other County departments; and
WHEREAS, a final recommendation to pursue this course of action cannot be
made without additional engineering and environmental analysis of the St. Michael
building and property, additional architectural analysis to better estimate the cost of
necessary building renovations and outside legal assistance to negotiate a final lease or
sale agreement; and
WHEREAS, consequently, the Directors of DHHS and ECD are seeking
authorization from the County Board to make expenditures on the items listed above in
an amount not to exceed $200,000 so that they can negotiate a lease or sale

agreement with WFH and provide policymakers with the information they need to
determine whether such an agreement is in the best interest of Milwaukee County; and
WHEREAS, there are several reasons why the St. Michael location could be
ideal for BHD, including the following:
•

A portion of the St. Michael campus had already been configured for inpatient
behavioral health operations. St. Michael formerly housed 42 behavioral health
inpatient beds, and its inpatient behavioral health wing underwent significant
renovations in 1993 and 2001.

•

WFH plans to retain its Family Care Center at the St. Michael campus, which it
operates in conjunction with the Medical College of Wisconsin. The Family Care
Center provides pre-natal, pediatric, adult, women’s and geriatric care, disease
management and community medicine. The existence of an on-site clinic to
serve the physical health needs of central city residents could have outstanding
synergy with BHD’s behavioral health operations.

•

St. Michael was constructed to house 405 inpatient beds. While the size of the
building therefore still exceeds the capacity needs of BHD, the overall acreage of
the St. Michael campus is significantly smaller than that of the Mental Health
Complex, which once housed more than 870 inpatient beds.

•

The site is located in an economically disadvantaged area of the City of
Milwaukee that could benefit greatly from the more than 700 workers that BHD
potentially would house at the site. In addition, the St. Michael location is more
accessible to the indigent population that is primarily served by BHD.

; and
WHEREAS, the Directors of DHHS and ECD have been involved in preliminary
negotiations with WFH, and the agreement currently under consideration would consist
of the following general elements:
1. The County would acquire the entire St. Michael property and adjacent
professional office building under a purchase agreement or long-term lease
ending in full County ownership. The space used for operation of the Family
Care Center would be excluded from a lease or, under a purchase scenario,
leased back to WFH for only the cost of utilities and other direct costs associated
with its operation.
2. Under a long-term lease agreement, the annual rent for BHD’s occupation of the
leased premises would be $1.00. The County would be required to pay WFH fair
market value for any space occupied by the County above the estimated 365,000
square feet needed by BHD, and the County would be responsible for providing
WFH any revenue received through lease of the premises to third parties. In

addition, the County would provide WFH with a payment of between $3 million
and $6 million (the precise amount would be subject to additional negotiation)
over a multi-year time period to cover costs associated with relocating WFH
outpatient services currently located at St. Michael.
3. Under a sale agreement, the County would purchase the property for a price of
between $4.5 million and $7.5 million, with the precise payment amount and
payment terms subject to additional negotiation.
4. The property would be sold or leased by WFH to the County in an “as is”
condition and the County would assume responsibility for all major maintenance
or repair and any liability related to the premises. The County would seek a
catastrophic protection clause for mechanicals in the building for a mutually
determined period of time.
; now, therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED, that the County Board of Supervisors hereby authorizes the
Directors of DHHS and ECD to spend up to $200,000 for additional engineering and
environmental analysis of the St. Michael building and property, additional architectural
analysis to better estimate the cost of necessary building renovations to house BHD,
and outside legal assistance to negotiate a final lease or sale agreement; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the County Board of Supervisors authorizes
the Directors of DHHS and ECD to negotiate a final agreement with WFH for the longterm lease or purchase of the St. Michael Hospital property and submit such agreement
to the County Board of Supervisors for its consideration.

DESCRIPTION OF FISCAL EFFECT
In the space below, you must provide the following information. Attach additional pages if
necessary.
A. Briefly describe the nature of the action that is being requested or proposed, and the new or
changed conditions that would occur if the request or proposal were adopted.
B. State the direct costs, savings or anticipated revenues associated with the requested or
proposed action in the current budget year and how those were calculated. 1 If annualized or
subsequent year fiscal impacts are substantially different from current year impacts, then
those shall be stated as well. In addition, cite any one-time costs associated with the action,
the source of any new or additional revenues (e.g. State, Federal, user fee or private
donation), the use of contingent funds, and/or the use of budgeted appropriations due to
surpluses or change in purpose required to fund the requested action.
C. Discuss the budgetary impacts associated with the proposed action in the current year. A
statement that sufficient funds are budgeted should be justified with information regarding the
amount of budgeted appropriations in the relevant account and whether that amount is
sufficient to offset the cost of the requested action. If relevant, discussion of budgetary
impacts in subsequent years also shall be discussed. Subsequent year fiscal impacts shall be
noted for the entire period in which the requested or proposed action would be implemented
when it is reasonable to do so (i.e. a five-year lease agreement shall specify the costs/savings
for each of the five years in question). Otherwise, impacts associated with the existing and
subsequent budget years should be cited.
D. Describe any assumptions or interpretations that were utilized to provide the information on
this form.
A. Authorization is requested to 1) negotiate for the purchase or lease of the St. Michael's hospital
facility; and 2) make expenditures not to exceed $200,000 for professional analyses and legal
services, with a report back to the County Board (June 2007 target date).
B. The request is for authorization to make professional and legal service expenditures not to exceed
$200,000 related to in-depth engineering, environmental, architectural and legal analysis of the
acquisition of the St. Michael's facility.
DHHS and ECD propose to use $155,800 of 2006 budgeted funds to cover most of the costs
($49,900 in ECD and $105,900 in DHHS). These funds were encumbered prior to the end of 2006.
In addition, the Corporation Counsel's Office would use up to $30,000 that has been encumbered
from its 2006 budget for legal services, for a total of $185,800 of identified and committed budget
appropriations. Since the request is for authority for expenditures not to exceed $200,000, DHHS
would fund the remaining balance of $14,200 from its 2007 budget for DHHS Operations.
C. If the request is approved, the DHHS 2006 year-end surplus would potentially be reduced by its
$105,900 costs, from the $3.6 million surplus projected as of the 3rd quarter to about $3.5 million.
D. It is assumed that the Corpration Counsel's $30,000 is from either its 2006 or 2007 budget.

1
If it is assumed that there is no fiscal impact associated with the requested action, then an explanatory statement that justifies that
conclusion shall be provided. If precise impacts cannot be calculated, then an estimate or range should be provided.

The wage rate increases, under items 1 thru 7 were applied to all union members who
were employees of Milwaukee County as of October 2006. The wage rate increases will
be given to all employees of the union who were or will be members of the union as of
indicated dates. The lump sum payout is a one-time payment of $250 to each employee
who has worked at least 1,040 hours during 2006, and is active as of the date of the
contract signing.
This represents all wage increases for DC-48 title codes and pay ranges. The contract
does not call for the creation of any additional steps or percentage increases for any
separate pay ranges or title codes.
The County will have to make a retroactive wage payment for items 1 and 2. This will be
accomplished as soon as we are administratively able to.
The additional cost of FICA (social security) and pension-related costs are not included
in the wage impact shown above, but are part of the overall fiscal impact for the three
years. The cost of FICA and pension-related costs would be an additional 7.65% for
FICA ($868,200) and 8.90% for Pension ($1,010,000).
This calculation was made assuming eighty (80) hours of straight time per pay period and
approximately two (2) hours of overtime per pay period for all affected employees. For
any employees who have a work schedule that is less than forty hours a week; a prorated
straight time value per pay period was used. The straight time hours used for current
active union members in the calculation, was based upon 2006 work history through
October 2006.

A full-cost wage projection was created, and was then compared to actual hours and
dollars paid for ten months of 2006. The comparison indicated that the basis of the wage
increase calculation is reasonable. The future wage impact may be impacted if the
number of DC-48 Union members increase or decrease.

Contract 2005 - 2006 - Revised Note

Page 4

As shown above, under the tentative agreement, the payment is dependent upon the
employee’s selection of either an HMO or PPO health plan. The current County
premium rates provide $3,270,000 as an offset to health costs. The tentative agreement
premium rates would provide $3,275,000 or an increase in premium contributions of
$5,000.
This change will reduce County benefit costs for the year 2007 by $5,000 based on an
estimated March 1, 2007 implementation date. This calculation is based upon the
contract effective date and the current single/family health plan designation of union
members as of January 2007.
2.

Dental Insurance Premium Change:
The dental insurance premium remains unchanged from the previous contract.
Of the 3,663 employees who were DC-48 union members, as of February 2006, only
3,027 of them are using the dental insurance program. Single and family members, who
started after January 1, 1994, are making premium contributions of $2/month and
$6/month, respectively. All active members who started before 1/1/1994 do not make
any premium contributions for dental insurance. The County pays dental premium rates
for single plan members ranging from $25.38 to $32.54. Premium rates paid by the
County for family plan members range from $58.27 to $92.75. The total 2006 projected
cost to the County for dental insurance for the DC-48 union members is $2,091,000.

Employee Co-Payments
for Health Insurance

Benefit Impact
($3,032,400) decrease

The proposed tentative agreement with the DC-48 Union calls for co-payments to be
made by represented employees and any covered family members when certain services
are received. The employee will be responsible for paying the co-payment directly to the
health care service provider. The County or third party health care service agency (WPS)
will not be responsible for the billing and collection of this co-payment. These copayments are applicable to both HMO and PPO plan members. In addition, the PPO plan
will call for increases to deductibles and out of pocket costs due to the change from a
base major medical to a comprehensive health plan.
To calculate the benefit cost impact, the 2006 plan provider (WPS) was asked to provide
a premium discount that the County would receive if it implemented a co-payment
program. The savings percentages provided by the plan provider were multiplied by the
anticipated premium cost. The savings that the proposed changes provided over rates
originally bid by WPS was 10.6% for the PPO plans and 5.5% for the HMO/EPO plans.

These premium savings will reduce the annual health insurance benefit costs of the
County. The new co-payments are anticipated to go into effect as of March 1, 2007. If
the new rates cannot go into effect as of March 1, 2007, due to a delay in the settlement

estimates were based upon current rates for 2005, projected rates for 2006, budgeted rates
for 2007 and the PPO and HMO selection of the members. Together, the co-payments of
$3,032,400, additional health plan savings that could occur based on trend of non-DC-48
County employees of $1,536,000 and employee premium co-payments of $0 will reduce

changes ($3,032,400) and possible health trend savings ($1,536,000) the net health costs
could be $37,611,000 for 2007. Total health care costs net of employee contributions for

Health Plan participants

Benefit Impact
($1,128,000) decrease

During the year an analysis was performed of the cost trend of DC-48 employees versus
all other employees in the County. The cost increases experienced by all other
employees were less than DC-48 employees. This was considered to be due to the health
plan changes that were enacted for all other employees in early 2006. These health plan
changes will now be put into place for DC-48 members in 2007. The co-payment
deductible cost changes shown in section 3 above was based on data from WPS. WPS
data was from trends that they noted for other clients for typical changes.
Since the County now has one year of experience of employees who have had the benefit
changes, a comparison was made of the average cost of employees with the benefit
changes and compared to final costs for 2006 for DC-48 employees. This comparison
indicated that the County could potentially achieve additional savings of $1,128,000 over
the $3,032,400 savings shown in section 3. Total possible savings due to the health care
changes could therefore be $4,160,400.
The County will be evaluating cost trends of the various employee groups during the year
to verify that these trends are either realized or not realized. This information will be
reported to the County Board and County Executive

agreement on the specifics of the program than the two sides will submit proposals to an
arbitrator. The arbitrator will than decide on either the County proposal or the DC-48
Union proposal. The professional service firm that has been hired by the County to assist
with our health cost analysis stated that a wellness or disease management program is not
going to save costs initially, but could save costs in future years. The only costs included
here is the administrative cost of beginning risk assessment.

In the proposed contract from DC-48 Union, received in early 2006, union members were
to take a Health Risk Appraisal (HRA). The HRA is a questionnaire that is completed
on-line by an employee, and a spouse; if the employee is under a family plan. The
questionnaire is intended to find information about the individual’s current health,
lifestyle and family history. The result of this private on-line survey would be a health
risk plan for the employee. The program would suggest changes that need to be made by
the individual to achieve a healthier life. The cost of the HRA is $6.72 per month per
employee.

Back Drop for future
employees is eliminated

Benefit Impact
Actuarial Impact
Completed by Milliman

The contract calls for the elimination of the back drop benefit for any employees whose
membership in the employees retirement system begins after the date of this contract.
There is no current cost savings, as a result of this provision, since all current members of
the union began before the date of this contract.
An actuarial analysis of the impact of the elimination of the back drop benefit was
performed by Milliman, an actuarial firm. In the Milliman report, dated October 14,
2005, the elimination of the back drop will result in “lower long-term costs”, and “likely
decrease short-term costs on a marginal basis”. This decrease in short-term costs is based
upon Milliman’s understanding of the current fund actuary’s (Mercer’s) application of
the pension plan funding method. The elimination of this benefit may also result in a
future adjustment of the assumptions used in the actuarial valuation, because people may
stay longer with the County before retiring, and investment returns could be impacted by
the elimination of future employees lump sum (back drop) payouts.
The back drop was adopted as of January 1, 2001, and allows retirees to obtain pension
benefits going as far back as the earliest date that the employee was eligible to retire from
Milwaukee County. The eligibility date for certain employees is based upon either the
Rule of 75 (years of age plus years of service equal 75) or upon reaching age 60. For
example, if an employee was eligible to retire three years prior to the today’s date, and an
employee chose the back drop, they would receive a lump sum payment for the three
years that they had not received a pension payment. This is the cost of the back drop.
The employee, who is now a retiree, would begin receiving monthly pension payments.
The pension payment, however, is based on the earlier retirement date, so the member
gives up the impact on the pension payment of wage increases and additional years of
service. This is the savings that occurs from a back drop.
Milwaukee County Employee Retirement System pension plan costs have increased due
to the back drop change that occurred in 2001. This is based on actuarial reports that

Sick Allowance Payout at Retirement:

Pre-1994 employees will get
Retirement Sick Leave payout split:
Pre-contract date 100% and Postcontract date 25%. Sick leave used
will be taken from Post-Contract
balance first and from Pre Contract
balance second. This is called the
LIFO Method

Benefit Impact
($678,000)
decrease

The contract calls for a change in the payout of accrued sick leave at retirement. Current
rules call for the 100% payout of accrued sick leave as of the date of retirement. The
Modified Calculation will only impact employees who started with the County prior to
January 1, 1994 (Pre-1994 employees.)
In a Modified Calculation, sick leave accruals will be split up into two groups of hours:
Hours as of date of contract approval (Pre-Contract Sick Leave Hours), and hours
accrued after contract (Post-Contract Sick Leave Hours). Sick leave incurred after the
date of the contract will reduce the balance of Post-Contract Sick Leave Hours first, until
that balance is zero. Sick leave usage will then reduce Pre-Contract Sick Leave Hours.
Each pay period, employees who work a normal 40-hour workweek receive 3.7 hours of
accrued sick leave.
Upon retirement, any balance in Pre-Contract Sick Leave Hours will be paid out at 100%
times the employee’s salary rate. Any balance in Post-Contract Sick Leave Hours will be
paid out at 25% times the employee’s salary rate.
The impact of this change has been calculated by comparing anticipated sick leave
accruals and usage for 2006 and 2007, with the current rule of full payout and the new
rule of splitting sick leave accruals into two groups of hours. No impact is anticipated for
2005 or 2006. The fiscal impact of this change is a reduction in payout costs of
($678,000) for 2007. This cost savings represents the variance between sick leave payout
under these two rules, if all union members retired in those years. This cost savings will
not be achieved until the employees do retire, but provides a guide to the cost impact.
For 2007, it is anticipated that the union will have total accrued hours of 979,000, with a
full payout cost of $18,825,000. If the sick leave revision is approved, then the payout
for 1,428 union members, who started before January 1, 1994, will be reduced to
$12,915,000. The 2,195 Post-1993 employees will still receive a full 100% payout of
$5,232,000. This is a new combined payout of $18,147,000; a savings of $678,000. The
County will achieve some immediate fiscal impact, because it is required to accrue a sick

a one time savings but is a savings that is planned to be obtained each year.
Administrative Costs Associated With Implementing This Contract:
To implement this contract, personnel in the Department of Administrative Services and IMSD
will have to input the rate changes into the Genesys HRP System and into the new Ceridian
Human Resource System. Back Payments will have to be made for Union members, under the
Union offer, since the agreement would be ratified after the effective date of the first wage
increase of November 6, 2006. This back payment will require internal effort and will take time
to calculate. Other projects may be delayed in preparing these adjustments. For wage rates, and
health plan changes, the implementation will require internal time and effort, but is not
considered to require outside resources, at this time. The number of personal hours to complete
this task has not been determined yet, but other projects may be delayed to implement this
contract.
In addition, the splitting of the sick leave hours into two accrual balances will require
reprogramming of the Genesys system and the Ceridian system. A cost estimate for this change
has not been provided to us.
The above information was prepared by the Department of Administrative Services and reviewed
by the Department of Audit and County Board Research Staff.

Fiscal Impact for 2005
The total cost, as noted above for 2005, is anticipated to be $0. An accrual of $400,000
was made at the end of 2005 to cover any wage costs that may accrue to 2005. This
amount is not anticipated to have a material impact on the 2005 fiscal projection.
Fiscal Impact for 2006
The total cost, as noted above for 2006, is anticipated to be $2,179,200. The costs
represent the payout of two wage increases for 2006, if the contract is settled. These cost
reductions for 2006 were offset by a budgeted wage increase equal to half of the
projected settlement of for DC-48, or $2,515,000. In addition, there is a carryover from
2005 of $400,000 to further offset wage settlement. The $2,515,000 was budgeted in org
1972.
Fiscal Impact for 2007
The net cost of contract changes, as noted above for 2007, is anticipated to be an increase
of $3,589,000. The cost represents the wages increases for 2006 was a 1% wage increase
in November 2007 and a lump sum payment. The wage increase will be offset by health
insurance premium changes, employee premium co-payments and changes in sick leave
earned retirement that will be implemented in March 2007.

Fiscal Impact - County Offer – (continued)
The savings from changes to sick leave (earned retirement) of $100,000, shown in the
above table, will not reduce costs to the same extent as provided in the detailed
explanation, shown above on page 1. The detailed explanation stated that the County
would save $687,000. This savings of $687,000 includes both proprietary and general
fund employees. The budgetary savings only relates to employees in the proprietary fund
since accounting rules require these funds to accrue for sick leave costs and any changes
in sick leave costs. For general fund employees, reduced sick leave costs will only be
achieved as employees retire from county service.
The budget for 2007 will require the inclusion of these contract costs. The fiscal impact
on 2007 was based on 3,476 filled positions. Any changes to the number of filled
positions will change the fiscal impact.
Fiscal Impact for 2008
The net cost of contract changes, as noted above for 2008, is anticipated to be an increase
of $5,840,800. The cost represents the wages increases for 2006 and 2007 plus a 1%
wage increase in April, June and October 2008. The wage increase will be offset by
health insurance premium changes, employee premium co-payments and changes in sick
leave earned retirement that will be implemented in March 2007.

I need to remove the item and put out an addendum when a name is available.
Please contact me at 4230.

Thanks.

Fw: 2007 "Floating Holiday" Credit for Using No Sick Time in 2006
Wednesday, January 17, 2007 9:34:31 AM
2007 Floating Holiday Alpha List for Depts.xls
2007 Floating Holiday List Department Order.xls

O fprward this to you as data for possible future uses. You recall when we
were costing out privatization we were trying to calculate a value for leave
time, including sick time. I did not open the below, but take a look at it and
see if it is something worth keeping on file.

        2007 'Floating Holiday' Credit for Using No Sick Time in 2006





The attached is a listing of Members of District Council 48 and Non Represented
Employees who did not use any sick allowance (code 03) or unpaid absence (code
21) during the 2006 'payroll year' between 12/19/2005 through 12/16/2006.
They must have had to work the full year. New Hires are not included. This
benefit is for 40 hour work week employees only.
These employees will be credited with 8.0 hours of accrued holiday time which
will be added to the accrued holiday balances during the processing of the
payroll for pay period ending 01/13/2007.
The results will be available to view on the 'Employee Hours Accruals' screen
(BP01) on Monday 01/22/2007. This time will also appear on the 'Milwaukee
County Payroll System Accrued Balances Report' (DN-09-PR456-B) for pay period
ending 01/13/2007 and your payroll register.
Attention Parks Departments: Please note that the 'Annual Work Year Group'
will have 8.0 hours added to the 'Annual Work Year Balance'.

Cindy - Here's a quick update on where Economic and Community Development is
at. The department's fiscal analyst is preparing for the accrual deadline
which is Friday this week. At that point they will have accrued for whatever
revenue they can claim for 2006 and will begin work on their carry-over
request. Once they have a handle on what's being carried over into 2007
(deadline is Jan. 31), we should have our disclosure number for the February
Finance & Audit meeting.
I sent Tracy the below email so the department can be prepared for disclosing
during the February Finance & Audit meeting.
Let me know of any questions or concerns. Thanks.

Hey Tracy,
For deficit disclosure purposes, here's a timeline for getting materials to the
Finance& Audit Committee.
Since you won't be able to project your deficit number until the carry-over is
figured out, you'll want to get your department's deficit disclosure into the
February Finance Committee cycle. This Finance & Audit Committee meeting is
scheduled for February 22nd.
In order to do this, the DAS deadline for that meeting is Feb. 1. The deadline
is for our office to review the material before it is sent to the Board on
February 8th.
You'll want to give Bob a heads up since he'll need to present the report. Let
me know if you have any questions.

DC48 fiscal note.doc

I have highlighted the section I am most concerned about. I am cofortable with
estimating savings related to co-payments and deductibles because there is a
reasonable expectation that we will see these savings and because there is a
methodolgy to back up the estimate. I am not comfortable at this point making
the leap that we will see savings for reasons yet unknown. In other words, I
don't know why the cost per employee is lower for NON DC48 than for DC 48. I
also don't know how long this has been the case. It could be factors such as
demographics that are totally unrelated to the changes made in the DC 48
contract. Please remember that these estimates will be the basis of how we
adjust budgets for the current year. I question whether we have enough data to
support the section I have highlighted. I am just not sure without addtional
analysis we can conclude we are going to see these savings. In short, I would
be comfortable with more analysis and explanation. However, I do not want to
inflate our savings and then run short leaving us to explain what happened.
Stuart, we are on a short time line for looking at the section I have
highlighted. Our decision is point is to include it or not include it as a
projected savings. Is this something you have time to look at or should we
just take it out?
Advice would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Calculation of DC-48 health savings narrative for 2007.
Milwaukee County, Wisconsin
Prepared on January 17, 2007+

1.

Health Insurance Co-Payment/Deductible Change:

a.
Overview of Method used to calculate Health Savings:
The proposed tentative agreement with the DC-48 Union calls for
co-payments to be made by represented employees and any
covered family members when certain services are received. The
County or third party health care service agency (WPS) will not be
responsible for the billing and collection of these co-payments.
These co-payments are applicable to both HMO and PPO plan
members. In addition, the PPO plan will call for increases to
deductibles and out of pocket costs due to the change from a base
major medical to a comprehensive health plan.
Under section 3b, the County calculated the impact of the change
in these health care benefits, using a method similar to what was
used for other union contracts that accepted these same benefit
changes. This method was based on a percentage savings that
would be achieved for each change in co-payments or deductibles.
The percentage savings was provided by WPS, based on their
experience with similar type changes. This percentage savings
method was used again, since it is similar to the presentations
made for fiscal notes on other union agreements.
The percentage method was originally used for all other Union and
Non-Represented Fiscal Notes because the County was fully
insured and would receive a direct reduction in costs from WPS.
Since the County is now self-insured for health costs, the actual
experience may differ from the savings calculated under the
percentage method. For this reason, an additional analysis was
performed under section 3c, to see if additional savings was
potentially available.
Under section 3c, additional savings were calculated by comparing
the 2006 health care costs of DC-48 members to the 2006 health
care costs of non-DC-48 county employees. The non-DC-48
County employees had the health plan changes, which become
effective for DC-48 members in March 2007, in place for all of
2006. Any costs savings experienced by the non-DC-48
employees over DC-48 employee savings could potentially provide

CArcher_Email3010532

additional cost reductions to the County in 2007. This is not
guaranteed and only provides an estimate of the potential savings
due to the changes in the health plan.

We used an analysis prepared by the plan provider (WPS) when
the County was fully-insured by WPS. This is the same
methodology used for all other union contracts entered into for
2005-2006. WPS provided us with savings percentages off of
guaranteed (fully-insured) premium rates if these co-payment and
deductible changes were implemented. The savings percentages
provided by WPS were multiplied by the anticipated premium cost
to arrive at total savings for each union who implemented these
changes. The savings that the proposed changes provided over
rates originally bid by WPS was 10.35% for the PPO plan and
5.45% for the HMO/EPO plan.
As stated previously, these savings are not guaranteed, since the
County is self-insured for health insurance. The percentages
provided by WPS were originally based on a fully insured health
plan, that provided a direct reduction in premium rates when these
changes were implemented.
The County anticipates that the new co-payments and deductibles
will reduce health plan costs for 2007 and for each year going
forward. The changes are likely to go into effect as of March 1,
2007. If the new rates cannot go into effect as of March 1, 2007,
due to a delay in the settlement date, some of these savings will be
lost. No calculation has been made to determine the reduction in
savings for 2007.
Following is a description for the HMO and PPO plans of the
savings for each of the health plan changes that are proposed based
on the percentage method.

For 2,289 HMO plan members the following co-payment savings could be
achieved based upon preliminary costs before savings of $31,094,000:

3b above
Health Plan participants
During the year an analysis was performed of the health care cost
trend of DC-48 employees versus all other employees in the
County. It was noted that non-DC-48 employees were
experiencing lower costs than DC-48 employees. The lower cost
per employee and as a result, the lower increase in annual health
costs for all other employees was considered to be due to the health
plan changes that were enacted for all other employees in early
2006. These health plan changes will now be put into place for
DC-48 members in 2007. The co-payment deductible cost
changes, on a percentage method shown in section 3b above was
based on data from WPS. WPS data was from trends that they
noted for other clients for typical changes.
Since the County now has one year of experience of employees
who have had the health benefit changes, a comparison was made
of the average health care cost of employees with the benefit
changes and to average cost of DC-48 employees. This

CArcher_Email3010534

comparison indicated that the County could potentially achieve
additional savings of $1,128,000 over the $3,032,400 percentage
savings shown in section 3b above. Total possible savings due to
the health care changes could therefore be $4,160,400.
The County will be evaluating cost trends of the various employee
groups during the year to verify that these trends are either realized
or not realized. This information will be reported to the County
Board and County Executive

d.
Conclusion on Health Savings:
As stated in the previous section, the County could potentially
achieve $4.1 million of health savings based upon the health plan
changes in the tentative agreement.

The overall increase in the cost of health care, before these health
plan changes is as follows:

$ 32,897,000 $ 3,181,000 $ 29,716,000 $ 3,144,000 11.8%
$ 39,863,000 $ 3,230,000 $ 36,633,000 $ 6,917,000 23.3%
$ 45,477,000 $ 3,297,000 $ 42,180,000 $ 5,547,000 15.1%
This is a total health care cost increase of $15,609,000 for these
three years. These estimates were based upon current rates for
2005, projected actual costs for 2006, budgeted rates for 2007 and
the PPO and HMO selection of the members. Together, the copayments of $3,032,400, additional health plan savings that could
occur based on trend of non-DC-48 County employees of
$1,128,000 and employee premium co-payments of $0 could
reduce the 2007 cost by $4,160,400.
Before considering the plan changes, total anticipated health care
costs net of employee contributions for 2007 was anticipated to be
$42,180,000. After considering plan changes ($4,160,400) the net
health costs could be $37,611,000 for 2007.

The County and the DC-48 union will be in negotiations during
2007 in order to establish a wellness and disease management
program for 2008. If the two parties cannot come to agreement on
the specifics of the program than the two sides will submit
proposals to an arbitrator. The arbitrator will than decide on either
the County proposal or the DC-48 Union proposal. The
professional service firm that has been hired by the County to
assist with our health cost analysis stated that a wellness or disease
management program is not going to save costs initially, but could
save costs in future years. The only costs included here is the
administrative cost of beginning risk assessment.
In the proposed contract from DC-48 Union, received in early
2006, union members were to take a Health Risk Appraisal (HRA).
The HRA is a questionnaire that is completed on-line by an
employee, and a spouse; if the employee is under a family plan.
The questionnaire is intended to find information about the
individual’s current health, lifestyle and family history. The result
of this private on-line survey would be a health risk plan for the
employee. The program would suggest changes that need to be
made by the individual to achieve a healthier life. The cost of the
HRA is $6.72 per month per employee.

I agree. This is a new low. He is the one that looks petty and ridiculous.
In terms of him being my smoking buddy. He helped me save Brian's position,
restored Lynn's salary and saved my budget analyst in position at BC and
advocated for me with the Milwaukee County Board. So who won on that deal?
Seems to me it was a fairly productive "relationship". hee, hee :)

I miss you very much. I miss the one-on-one time we had talking about issues
and strategies and other things. I miss our friendship. Scott is kind of hard
to figure out. Maybe in time we will "click" but I know it will never be like
with you.

The Finance Committee votes on my confirmation this Thursday and then the full
Board the following week. I think it will go ok. It was still a hard way to
start. I will be glad when it is over and I will be glad to make a salary that
is what I was supposed to make. The Board would not even stand for appointing
me as acting, so I have been somewhat in limbo and having to stay behind the
scenes. You know me, I am not a "behind the schenes" kind of gal. Watch the
paper next week to see how it all turns out. Did you see Seemeyer is leaving?

I am curious if the issue of funding has come up as the Board attempts to move
ahead with an RFP. I am also curious as to how pissed off Sara was when you
would not allow Procurement to help her. Interesting that she could not even
write an RFP and the Board has to hire a consultant to do her job.

You time in purgatory is almost over and then someone else will have to make it
all work. Would be kind of funny watching Evans try to figure it all out.

How is Brain?

Don't let the B*****ds wear you down. Focus on your future and your freedom,
Ed, you kids and grandkids and journey you will take next.

PS -- Linda is sitting here and she says she think it is a good thing you are
not softening and that some day, they will be writing about the boondoggle of
the new MHC and how Kelso knew what she was talking about. She just said, you
will be right in the longterm. I think we have made her a republican. :)

An issue has arisen with respect to the presentation of the benefit changes in
either the 05/06 agreement or the 07/08 agreement. The union apparently
included the health care changes in their publication to their members in 07/08
and is resisting a change at this time. From the county's perspective, the
concern is that pushing benefit changes into 07/08 would effect the "me too"
clause, giving the county little room to move in settling with other bargaining
units.
Rather than come at this in a way that forces us into grid-lock, the Marks are
suggesting that we strike agreement in some acceptable form that would
recognize that whenever the benefits changes are placed, they do not "count" in
the calculation of the "me too" clause effect. They will be talking with Rich
Abelson tomorrow to pin this down. Greg Gracz will be joining in the
conversation.

RE:

Carryover Request

Priority: [Urgent]

This memo is our request to allow IMSD to carryover $25,000 from the 2006 budget to 2007
for use by CBDP in 2007. These funds were originally designated for use by Washington
and Rice a few years ago. However, upon completion of an IT analysis by an independent
consultant, we determined that the IT solution proposed by Washington and Rice was cost
prohibitive and inappropriate for our environment.
These funds will be used to offset costs needed to implement Phase III of development for
the Contract Compliance database currently being implemented in DTPW. These funds will
help cover some costs for full implementation throughout Milwaukee County departments
and will eliminate the use of paper for DBE’s and reporting and updating DBE and non-DBE
data. Annual reports are required by our funder, U.S. DOT, on all transit/transportation,
public works, and airport improvement projects for which federal funds are used.
We have discussed this matter with IMSD and received their concurrence on the carryover of
these funds.
Please notify me if more information is needed and of your determination. Thank you in
advance for your consideration.

There are a couple of issues on the Personnel Agenda that we should discuss

The first is listing Scott Manske as an Appointment at an Advanced Step of the

it was already passed as a specific budget amendment.
The second thing is no confirmation letter appears in the Personnel Committee

I was only able to locate one for the new Labor Relations Director.

In Table 1 you should delete the row for Additional Health Savings without any
amount shown if you and Stuart are not comfortable with the amount we
discussed. We are convinced that this is not reasonable. Adjusting the WPS
estimate based on some limited actual experience instead of a WPS guess makes
more sense to us. However, leaving it out does establish a more conservative
estimate. The row for Contributions should also have a number or a statement
(minimal impact). Table 2 continues to give us some real concern about what we
are called to do under the Ordinance. In our view, the 2009 column (especially
without any health care savings) is not the picture we should be presenting.
Rather, it should be a Total Impact without the annualized 2009.   Doing it the
present way may also be affecting the per centage lift under the method of
Table 2. For Table 3, we also think that we need to remind the Board and the
Exec that the $4.5 million is due, in large part, to the fact that we did not
budget any amount in 2007 for winning OR losing the arbitration.
A lot of the analysis in the note is needed to provide consistency with the
other packages. After the 2007/2008 contracts, we should sit down and hash out
a process that works better for all of us. These notes are a 100% improvement
over anything this government did in the past. They represent a lot of hard

Shown above is a summary of the fiscal impact for each year of the proposed agreement. This is
only an estimate of the impact. For 2006, 2007 and 2008, projected costs included in this fiscal
note are based upon current employees in the DC-48 Union as of October 2006. No provision
was made for additional members of the DC-48 Union being added to departments or for the
retirement of members. Any major changes in policy or in actual number of employees hired or
who retire or leave will affect the total cost for the year.

48. This increase is called the lift in costs due to the proposed contract. The total cumulative lift
over the period of the contract is $9.6 million or 8.27% of base wages. The annual lift is less
than 2% a year over the four-year term of the contract.
The one-time change represents a lump sum payment of $250 that is made in 2007. This is not a
lift to total costs since it only impacts one year. For that reason, the cost of $787,300 is
presented as a separate line. The projected lift prior to the lump sum payout is 7.60%. and after
the payment the lift shows 8.27%.
The year 2005 is 0% since there are no wage increases or other contract changes for that year.
The year 2006 is 1.87% because of the 2% wage increase that occurs in July 2006 and October
2006. For 2007, the lift is 2.30% which represents the remainder of the wage increases from
2006, and the 1% wage increase in November 2007. Projected savings from health care changes
and earned retirement changes, starting in March 2007, will offset these wage increases. The
year 2008 shows a lift of 2% which includes the additional lift from wage and health plan
changes that started in 2007 plus three 1% wage increases which occur each quarter. The full
annualized impact of the proposed contract agreement does not materialize until 2009. For 2009,
the remainder of the lift, due to the contract wage changes in 2008 that carryover to 2009 is
shown. This remaining lift is 2.1% in 2009.

Contract 2005 - 2008

Page 4
Fiscal Impact for 2005
The total cost, as noted above for 2005, is anticipated to be $0. An accrual of $400,000
was made at the end of 2005 to cover any wage costs that may accrue to 2005. This
amount is not anticipated to have a material impact on the 2005 fiscal projection.
Fiscal Impact for 2006
The total cost, as noted above for 2006, is anticipated to be $2,179,200. The costs
represent the payout of two wage increases for 2006, if the contract is settledAs noted,
the carry-over from 2005 of $400,000 is available to offset the 2006 wage settlement
cost. In addition, the 2006 budget appropriated $4.2 million in Org. Unit 1972 for wage
increases. A fund transfer will be before the Finance and Audit Committee in January
2007 allocating $3.7 million of the budgeted $4.2 million to non-DC48 unions and nonrep employee pay adjustments, leaving $486,000 available to offset DC48 2006 contract
costs and finally the pension costs included in the costing of the contract have already
been accounted for in the Fringe Benefit Budget (Org 1950) for 2006 and 2007, and
therefore are excluded from the Fiscal Impact. The remaining of the 2006 DC48 contract
cost ($1,136,800) can be offset by the use of estimated 2006 year-end balances.
Fiscal Impact for 2007
Total wage cost for 2007 is anticipated to be an increase of $7,156,700. The cost
represents the wage increases for 2006, a 1% wage increase in November 2007 and a
lump sum payment. The wage increase will be offset by projected savings related to
health insurance changes in employee co-payments and deductibles ($2,527,000) and
changes in sick leave earned retirement that will be implemented in March 2007
($100,000).
The total contract wage increase net the anticipated savings leaves an estimated balance
of $4,529,700 of additional budget authority required in 2007.
Fiscal Impact for 2008
Total wage cost of contract changes, as noted above for 2008, is anticipated to be an
increase of $9,863,600. The cost represents the wages increases for 2006 and 2007, plus
a 1% wage increase in April, June and October 2008. The wage increase will be offset
by projected savings related to health insurance changes in employee co-payments and
deductibles, ($2,794,800) and changes in sick leave earned retirement that will be
implemented in March 2007 ($100,000).

The Fiscal Impact portion of this statement was prepared by the Department of Administrative
Services.

Fiscal Impact for Major Contract Changes
The following is a summary of the fiscal impact of the proposed contract agreement for the
District Council 48, AFSCME, AFL-CIO and its Affiliated Locals (170, 567, 594, 645, 882,
1055, 1654 and 1656) (DC-48 Union), for the years 2005 – 2008. The impact is inclusive of
all wage-related negotiated items for title codes under the DC-48 Union.
The calculations shown below are an estimate of the annual impact of the proposed settlement
based upon a tentative agreement, current personnel in the union, step changes applicable to
those personnel, and applying negotiated changes based on current benefit choices of members.
The actual annual impact may be greater than or less than the impact that is noted here.

$1,372,800

The wage rate increases, under items 1 thru 6 were applied to all union members who
were employees of Milwaukee County as of October 2006. The wage rate increases will
be given to all employees of the union who were or will be members of the union as of
effective dates.
This represents all wage increases for DC-48 title codes and pay ranges. The contract
does not call for the creation of any additional steps or percentage increases for any
separate pay ranges or title codes.
The County will have to make a retroactive wage payment for items 1 and 2. This will be
accomplished as soon as we are administratively able to.
The additional cost of FICA (social security) and pension-related costs are not included
in the wage impact shown above, but are part of the overall fiscal impact for the four
years. The cost of FICA and pension-related costs would be an additional 7.65% for
FICA ($807,900) and 8.90% for Pension ($939,900). Pension costs are shown since they
have a direct relationship to the wage costs, and will, at a future date, lift the annual
pension cost, provided by the County’s actuary. However, pension costs are have already
been budgeted and fixed for 2006, and 2007 based on an actuarial analysis. Therefore,

these additional pension costs will not increase the annual budgetary cost for 2006, and
2007.
This calculation was made assuming eighty (80) hours of straight time per pay period and
approximately two (2) hours of overtime per pay period for all affected employees. For
any employees who have a work schedule that is less than forty hours a week; a prorated
straight time value per pay period was used. The straight time hours used for current
active union members in the calculation, was based upon 2006 work history through
October 2006.
A full-cost wage projection was created, and was then compared to actual hours and
dollars paid for ten months of 2006. The comparison indicated that the basis of the wage
increase calculation is reasonable. The future wage impact may be impacted if the
number of DC-48 Union members increase or decrease.
The wage costs do not include the cost of step increases. Step increases are assumed to
be a part of the current contract, and therefore do not represent a change in the tentative
agreement. Annual costs for step increases are approximately $1.5 million for 1,600
union members that are not at the top of their pay range.

As shown in Table 4, the employee contribution is dependent upon the employee’s
selection of either an HMO or PPO health plan. The current County premium rates
provide $3,270,000 as an offset to health costs. The tentative agreement premium rates
would provide $3,271,000 or an increase in premium contributions of $1,000.
This change will reduce County benefit costs for the year 2007 by $1,000 based on an
estimated March 1, 2007 implementation date. This calculation is based upon the
contract effective date and the current single/family health plan designation of union
members as of January 2007.

2.

Dental Insurance Premium Change:
The dental insurance premium remains unchanged from the previous contract.

Health Insurance Co-Payment/Deductible Change:
a.
Overview of Method used to calculate Health Savings:
The tentative agreement with the DC-48 Union calls for co-payments to be made
by represented employees and any covered family members when certain services
are received. The County or third party health care service agency (WPS) will not
be responsible for the billing and collection of these co-payments. These copayments are applicable to both HMO and PPO plan members. In addition, the
PPO plan will call for increases to deductibles and out of pocket costs due to the
change from a base major medical to a comprehensive health plan.
Under section 3b, the County calculated the impact of the change in these health
care benefits, using a method similar to what was used for other union contracts
that accepted these same benefit changes. This method was based on a percentage
savings that would be achieved for each change in co-payments or deductibles.
The percentage savings was provided by WPS, based on their experience with
similar type changes. This percentage savings method was used again, since it is
similar to the presentations made for fiscal notes on other union agreements.
The percentage method was originally used for all other Union and NonRepresented Fiscal Notes because the County was fully insured and was
guaranteed to receive a direct reduction in costs from WPS. Since the County is
now self-insured for health costs, the actual experience may differ from the
savings calculated under the percentage method.

($3,032,400) decrease

The percentages used in the annual benefit impact were prepared by the plan
provider (WPS). This is the same methodology used for all other union contracts
entered into for 2005-2006. WPS provided us with savings percentages off of
guaranteed (fully-insured) premium rates if these co-payment and deductible
changes were implemented. The savings percentages provided by WPS were
multiplied by the anticipated premium cost to arrive at total savings for each
union who implemented these changes. The savings that the proposed changes
provided over rates originally bid by WPS was 10.35% for the PPO plan and
5.45% for the HMO/EPO plan.
The County anticipates that the new co-payments and deductibles will reduce
health plan costs for 2007 and for each year going forward. The changes are
likely to go into effect as of March 1, 2007. If the new rates cannot go into effect
as of March 1, 2007, due to a delay in the settlement date, some of these savings
will be lost. No calculation has been made to determine the reduction in savings
for 2007.

The County and the DC-48 union will be in negotiations during 2007 in order to establish
a wellness and disease management program for 2008. If the two parties cannot come to
agreement on the specifics of the program than the two sides will submit proposals to an
arbitrator. The arbitrator will than decide on either the County proposal or the DC-48
Union proposal. The professional service firm that has been hired by the County to assist
with our health cost analysis stated that a wellness or disease management program is not
going to save costs initially, but could save costs in future years. The only costs included
here is the administrative cost of beginning risk assessment.
In the tentative agreement with the DC-48 Union, received in early 2006, union members
were to take a Health Risk Appraisal (HRA). The HRA is a questionnaire that is
completed on-line by an employee, and a spouse; if the employee is under a family plan.
The questionnaire is intended to find information about the individual’s current health,
lifestyle and family history. The result of this private on-line survey would be a health
risk plan for the employee. The program would suggest changes that need to be made by
the individual to achieve a healthier life. The cost of the HRA is $6.72 per month per
employee for an annual administrative cost of $237,600.

Back Drop for future

Annual Cost Impact
Actuarial Impact
Completed by Milliman.
Immaterial impact near
term, lower costs long
term

The contract calls for the elimination of the back drop benefit for any employees whose
membership in the employees retirement system begins after the date of this contract.
There is no current cost savings, as a result of this provision, since all current members of
the union began before the date of this contract.
An actuarial analysis of the impact of the elimination of the back drop benefit was
performed by Milliman, an actuarial firm. In the Milliman report, dated October 14,
2005, the elimination of the back drop will result in “lower long-term costs”, and “likely
decrease short-term costs on a marginal basis”. This decrease in short-term costs is based
upon Milliman’s understanding of the current fund actuary’s (Mercer’s) application of
the pension plan funding method. The elimination of this benefit may also result in a
future adjustment of the assumptions used in the actuarial valuation, because people may
stay longer with the County before retiring, and investment returns could be impacted by
the elimination of future employees lump sum (back drop) payouts.
The back drop was adopted as of January 1, 2001, and allows retirees to obtain pension
benefits going as far back as the earliest date that the employee was eligible to retire from
Milwaukee County. The eligibility date for certain employees is based upon either the
Rule of 75 (years of age plus years of service equal 75) or upon reaching age 60. For
example, if an employee was eligible to retire three years prior to the today’s date, and an
employee chose the back drop, they would receive a lump sum payment for the three
years that they had not received a pension payment. This is the cost of the back drop.
The employee, who is now a retiree, would begin receiving monthly pension payments.
The pension payment, however, is based on the earlier retirement date, so the member
gives up the impact on the pension payment of wage increases and additional years of
service. This is the savings that occurs from a back drop.
Milwaukee County Employee Retirement System pension plan costs have increased due
to the back drop change that occurred in 2001. This is based on actuarial reports that
were issued in the years 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005. By the elimination of this
benefit, the pension costs should decrease in the long term.

Pre-1994 employees will get

Annual Cost
Impact
($678,000)

The contract calls for a change in the payout of accrued sick leave at retirement. Current
rules call for the 100% payout of accrued sick leave as of the date of retirement. The
Modified Calculation will only impact employees who started with the County prior to
January 1, 1994 (Pre-1994 employees.)
In a Modified Calculation, sick leave accruals will be split up into two groups of hours:
Hours as of date of contract approval (Pre-Contract Sick Leave Hours), and hours
accrued after contract (Post-Contract Sick Leave Hours). Sick leave incurred after the
date of the contract will reduce the balance of Post-Contract Sick Leave Hours first, until
that balance is zero. Sick leave usage will then reduce Pre-Contract Sick Leave Hours.
Each pay period, employees who work a normal 40-hour workweek receive 3.7 hours of
accrued sick leave.
Upon retirement, any balance in Pre-Contract Sick Leave Hours will be paid out at 100%
times the employee’s salary rate. Any balance in Post-Contract Sick Leave Hours will be
paid out at 25% times the employee’s salary rate.
The impact of this change has been calculated by comparing anticipated sick leave
accruals and usage for 2006 and 2007, with the current rule of full payout and the new
rule of splitting sick leave accruals into two groups of hours. No impact is anticipated for
2005 or 2006. The fiscal impact of this change is a reduction in payout costs of
($678,000) for 2007. This cost savings represents the variance between sick leave payout
under these two rules, if all union members retired in those years. This cost savings will
not be achieved until the employees do retire, but provides a guide to the cost impact.
For 2007, it is anticipated that the union will have total accrued hours of 979,000, with a
full payout cost of $18,825,000. If the sick leave revision is approved, then the payout
for 1,428 union members, who started before January 1, 1994, will be reduced to
$12,915,000. The 2,195 Post-1993 employees will still receive a full 100% payout of
$5,232,000. This is a new combined payout of $18,147,000; a savings of $678,000. The
County will achieve some immediate fiscal impact, because it is required to accrue a sick
leave liability for certain employees who are in the proprietary funds. This savings is not
a one-time savings but is a savings that is planned to be obtained each year.

Page 13
The budgetary fiscal impact shown in table 1 is only $100,000. This is due to the fact
that any changes in sick leave accruals must be charged to Proprietary fund departments
each year. As a result, when a person retires from a Proprietary Fund department, a
reserve is available to pay the cost of accrued sick leave. The General Fund departments
do not have a fiscal impact until a person retires from the County, and the full sick leave
payout cost is charged to the department.

Administrative Costs Associated With Implementing This Contract:
To implement this contract, personnel in the Department of Administrative Services and IMSD
will have to input the rate changes into the Genesys HRP System and into the new Ceridian
Human Resource System. Back Payments will have to be made for Union members, under the
Union offer, since the agreement would be ratified after the effective date of the first wage
increase of November 6, 2006. This back payment will require internal effort and will take time
to calculate. Other projects may be delayed in preparing these adjustments. For wage rates, and
health plan changes, the implementation will require internal time and effort, but is not
considered to require outside resources, at this time. The number of personal hours to complete
this task has not been determined yet, but other projects may be delayed to implement this
contract.
In addition, the splitting of the sick leave hours into two accrual balances will require
reprogramming of the Genesys system and the Ceridian system. A cost estimate for this change
has not been provided to us.
The above information was prepared by the Department of Administrative Services and reviewed
by the Department of Audit and County Board Research Staff.
The Fiscal Impact portion of this statement was prepared by the Department of Administrative

DC 48 mod4 Fiscal Note 05-08.doc

I thought you were ok taking out the additional health savings because we had
no basis upon which to project it. I am uncomfortable because I don't know
what explains the difference and it could be something totally unrelated to
health plan changes. Stuart will not be able to do this kind of analysis in
the timeframe we have for the fiscal note. If you think it should be in, we
need to talk about methodolgy and what the estimate would be. I realize I am
walking into the middle of this movie and I may be missing something (I
probably am) so help me understand your concerns. Should we sit down again
tomorrow and go over this? Let me know your thoughts. I haven't had a chance
to look at your other comments. Will be in touch.

In Table 1 you should delete the row for Additional Health Savings without any
amount shown if you and Stuart are not comfortable with the amount we
discussed. We are convinced that this is not reasonable. Adjusting the WPS
estimate based on some limited actual experience instead of a WPS guess makes
more sense to us. However, leaving it out does establish a more conservative
estimate. The row for Contributions should also have a number or a statement
(minimal impact). Table 2 continues to give us some real concern about what we
are called to do under the Ordinance. In our view, the 2009 column (especially

CArcher_Email3010571

without any health care savings) is not the picture we should be presenting.
Rather, it should be a Total Impact without the annualized 2009.   Doing it the
present way may also be affecting the per centage lift under the method of
Table 2. For Table 3, we also think that we need to remind the Board and the
Exec that the $4.5 million is due, in large part, to the fact that we did not
budget any amount in 2007 for winning OR losing the arbitration.
A lot of the analysis in the note is needed to provide consistency with the
other packages. After the 2007/2008 contracts, we should sit down and hash out
a process that works better for all of us. These notes are a 100% improvement
over anything this government did in the past. They represent a lot of hard
work. But they can be streamlined.

48. This increase is called the lift in costs due to the proposed contract. The total cumulative lift
over the period of the contract is $9.6 million or 8.27% of base wages. The annual lift is less
than 2% a year over the four-year term of the contract.
The one-time change represents a lump sum payment of $250 that is made in 2007. This is not a
lift to total costs since it only impacts one year. For that reason, the cost of $787,300 is
presented as a separate line. The projected lift prior to the lump sum payout is 7.60%. and after
the payment the lift shows 8.27%.
The year 2005 is 0% since there are no wage increases or other contract changes for that year.
The year 2006 is 1.87% because of the 2% wage increase that occurs in July 2006 and October
2006. For 2007, the lift is 2.30% which represents the remainder of the wage increases from
2006, and the 1% wage increase in November 2007. Projected savings from health care changes
and earned retirement changes, starting in March 2007, will offset these wage increases. The
year 2008 shows a lift of 2% which includes the additional lift from wage and health plan
changes that started in 2007 plus three 1% wage increases which occur each quarter. The full
annualized impact of the proposed contract agreement does not materialize until 2009. For 2009,
the remainder of the lift, due to the contract wage changes in 2008 that carryover to 2009 is
shown. This remaining lift is 2.1% in 2009.

Contract 2005 - 2008

Page 4
Fiscal Impact for 2005
The total cost, as noted above for 2005, is anticipated to be $0. An accrual of $400,000
was made at the end of 2005 to cover any wage costs that may accrue to 2005. This
amount is not anticipated to have a material impact on the 2005 fiscal projection.
Fiscal Impact for 2006
The total cost, as noted above for 2006, is anticipated to be $2,179,200. The costs
represent the payout of two wage increases for 2006, if the contract is settledAs noted,
the carry-over from 2005 of $400,000 is available to offset the 2006 wage settlement
cost. In addition, the 2006 budget appropriated $4.2 million in Org. Unit 1972 for wage
increases. A fund transfer will be before the Finance and Audit Committee in January
2007 allocating $3.7 million of the budgeted $4.2 million to non-DC48 unions and nonrep employee pay adjustments, leaving $486,000 available to offset DC48 2006 contract
costs and finally the pension costs included in the costing of the contract have already
been accounted for in the Fringe Benefit Budget (Org 1950) for 2006 and 2007, and
therefore are excluded from the Fiscal Impact. The remaining of the 2006 DC48 contract
cost ($1,136,800) can be offset by the use of estimated 2006 year-end balances.
Fiscal Impact for 2007
Total wage cost for 2007 is anticipated to be an increase of $7,156,700. The cost
represents the wage increases for 2006, a 1% wage increase in November 2007 and a
lump sum payment. The wage increase will be offset by projected savings related to
health insurance changes in employee co-payments and deductibles ($2,527,000) and
changes in sick leave earned retirement that will be implemented in March 2007
($100,000).
The total contract wage increase net the anticipated savings leaves an estimated balance
of $4,529,700 of additional budget authority required in 2007.
Fiscal Impact for 2008
Total wage cost of contract changes, as noted above for 2008, is anticipated to be an
increase of $9,863,600. The cost represents the wages increases for 2006 and 2007, plus
a 1% wage increase in April, June and October 2008. The wage increase will be offset
by projected savings related to health insurance changes in employee co-payments and
deductibles, ($2,794,800) and changes in sick leave earned retirement that will be
implemented in March 2007 ($100,000).

Fiscal Impact for Major Contract Changes
The following is a summary of the fiscal impact of the proposed contract agreement for the
District Council 48, AFSCME, AFL-CIO and its Affiliated Locals (170, 567, 594, 645, 882,
1055, 1654 and 1656) (DC-48 Union), for the years 2005 – 2008. The impact is inclusive of
all wage-related negotiated items for title codes under the DC-48 Union.
The calculations shown below are an estimate of the annual impact of the proposed settlement
based upon a tentative agreement, current personnel in the union, step changes applicable to
those personnel, and applying negotiated changes based on current benefit choices of members.
The actual annual impact may be greater than or less than the impact that is noted here.
WAGE-RELATED CHANGES IN TENTATIVE AGREEMENT:

$1,372,800

The wage rate increases, under items 1 thru 6 were applied to all union members who
were employees of Milwaukee County as of October 2006. The wage rate increases will
be given to all employees of the union who were or will be members of the union as of
effective dates.
This represents all wage increases for DC-48 title codes and pay ranges. The contract
does not call for the creation of any additional steps or percentage increases for any
separate pay ranges or title codes.
The County will have to make a retroactive wage payment for items 1 and 2. This will be
accomplished as soon as we are administratively able to.
The additional cost of FICA (social security) and pension-related costs are not included
in the wage impact shown above, but are part of the overall fiscal impact for the four
years. The cost of FICA and pension-related costs would be an additional 7.65% for
FICA ($807,900) and 8.90% for Pension ($939,900). Pension costs are shown since they
have a direct relationship to the wage costs, and will, at a future date, lift the annual
pension cost, provided by the County’s actuary. However, pension costs are have already
been budgeted and fixed for 2006, and 2007 based on an actuarial analysis. Therefore,

these additional pension costs will not increase the annual budgetary cost for 2006, and
2007.
This calculation was made assuming eighty (80) hours of straight time per pay period and
approximately two (2) hours of overtime per pay period for all affected employees. For
any employees who have a work schedule that is less than forty hours a week; a prorated
straight time value per pay period was used. The straight time hours used for current
active union members in the calculation, was based upon 2006 work history through
October 2006.
A full-cost wage projection was created, and was then compared to actual hours and
dollars paid for ten months of 2006. The comparison indicated that the basis of the wage
increase calculation is reasonable. The future wage impact may be impacted if the
number of DC-48 Union members increase or decrease.
The wage costs do not include the cost of step increases. Step increases are assumed to
be a part of the current contract, and therefore do not represent a change in the tentative
agreement. Annual costs for step increases are approximately $1.5 million for 1,600
union members that are not at the top of their pay range.

As shown in Table 4, the employee contribution is dependent upon the employee’s
selection of either an HMO or PPO health plan. The current County premium rates
provide $3,270,000 as an offset to health costs. The tentative agreement premium rates
would provide $3,271,000 or an increase in premium contributions of $1,000.
This change will reduce County benefit costs for the year 2007 by $1,000 based on an
estimated March 1, 2007 implementation date. This calculation is based upon the
contract effective date and the current single/family health plan designation of union
members as of January 2007.

The dental insurance premium remains unchanged from the previous contract.

Health Insurance Co-Payment/Deductible Change:
a.
Overview of Method used to calculate Health Savings:
The tentative agreement with the DC-48 Union calls for co-payments to be made
by represented employees and any covered family members when certain services
are received. The County or third party health care service agency (WPS) will not
be responsible for the billing and collection of these co-payments. These copayments are applicable to both HMO and PPO plan members. In addition, the
PPO plan will call for increases to deductibles and out of pocket costs due to the
change from a base major medical to a comprehensive health plan.
Under section 3b, the County calculated the impact of the change in these health
care benefits, using a method similar to what was used for other union contracts
that accepted these same benefit changes. This method was based on a percentage
savings that would be achieved for each change in co-payments or deductibles.
The percentage savings was provided by WPS, based on their experience with
similar type changes. This percentage savings method was used again, since it is
similar to the presentations made for fiscal notes on other union agreements.
The percentage method was originally used for all other Union and NonRepresented Fiscal Notes because the County was fully insured and was
guaranteed to receive a direct reduction in costs from WPS. Since the County is
now self-insured for health costs, the actual experience may differ from the
savings calculated under the percentage method.

The percentages used in the annual benefit impact were prepared by the plan
provider (WPS). This is the same methodology used for all other union contracts
entered into for 2005-2006. WPS provided us with savings percentages off of
guaranteed (fully-insured) premium rates if these co-payment and deductible
changes were implemented. The savings percentages provided by WPS were
multiplied by the anticipated premium cost to arrive at total savings for each
union who implemented these changes. The savings that the proposed changes
provided over rates originally bid by WPS was 10.35% for the PPO plan and
5.45% for the HMO/EPO plan.
The County anticipates that the new co-payments and deductibles will reduce
health plan costs for 2007 and for each year going forward. The changes are
likely to go into effect as of March 1, 2007. If the new rates cannot go into effect
as of March 1, 2007, due to a delay in the settlement date, some of these savings
will be lost. No calculation has been made to determine the reduction in savings
for 2007.

The County and the DC-48 union will be in negotiations during 2007 in order to establish
a wellness and disease management program for 2008. If the two parties cannot come to
agreement on the specifics of the program than the two sides will submit proposals to an
arbitrator. The arbitrator will than decide on either the County proposal or the DC-48
Union proposal. The professional service firm that has been hired by the County to assist
with our health cost analysis stated that a wellness or disease management program is not
going to save costs initially, but could save costs in future years. The only costs included
here is the administrative cost of beginning risk assessment.
In the tentative agreement with the DC-48 Union, received in early 2006, union members
were to take a Health Risk Appraisal (HRA). The HRA is a questionnaire that is
completed on-line by an employee, and a spouse; if the employee is under a family plan.
The questionnaire is intended to find information about the individual’s current health,
lifestyle and family history. The result of this private on-line survey would be a health
risk plan for the employee. The program would suggest changes that need to be made by
the individual to achieve a healthier life. The cost of the HRA is $6.72 per month per
employee for an annual administrative cost of $237,600.

Actuarial Impact
Completed by Milliman.
Immaterial impact near
term, lower costs long
term

The contract calls for the elimination of the back drop benefit for any employees whose
membership in the employees retirement system begins after the date of this contract.
There is no current cost savings, as a result of this provision, since all current members of
the union began before the date of this contract.
An actuarial analysis of the impact of the elimination of the back drop benefit was
performed by Milliman, an actuarial firm. In the Milliman report, dated October 14,
2005, the elimination of the back drop will result in “lower long-term costs”, and “likely
decrease short-term costs on a marginal basis”. This decrease in short-term costs is based
upon Milliman’s understanding of the current fund actuary’s (Mercer’s) application of
the pension plan funding method. The elimination of this benefit may also result in a
future adjustment of the assumptions used in the actuarial valuation, because people may
stay longer with the County before retiring, and investment returns could be impacted by
the elimination of future employees lump sum (back drop) payouts.
The back drop was adopted as of January 1, 2001, and allows retirees to obtain pension
benefits going as far back as the earliest date that the employee was eligible to retire from
Milwaukee County. The eligibility date for certain employees is based upon either the
Rule of 75 (years of age plus years of service equal 75) or upon reaching age 60. For
example, if an employee was eligible to retire three years prior to the today’s date, and an
employee chose the back drop, they would receive a lump sum payment for the three
years that they had not received a pension payment. This is the cost of the back drop.
The employee, who is now a retiree, would begin receiving monthly pension payments.
The pension payment, however, is based on the earlier retirement date, so the member
gives up the impact on the pension payment of wage increases and additional years of
service. This is the savings that occurs from a back drop.
Milwaukee County Employee Retirement System pension plan costs have increased due
to the back drop change that occurred in 2001. This is based on actuarial reports that
were issued in the years 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005. By the elimination of this
benefit, the pension costs should decrease in the long term.

rules call for the 100% payout of accrued sick leave as of the date of retirement. The
Modified Calculation will only impact employees who started with the County prior to
January 1, 1994 (Pre-1994 employees.)
In a Modified Calculation, sick leave accruals will be split up into two groups of hours:
Hours as of date of contract approval (Pre-Contract Sick Leave Hours), and hours
accrued after contract (Post-Contract Sick Leave Hours). Sick leave incurred after the
date of the contract will reduce the balance of Post-Contract Sick Leave Hours first, until
that balance is zero. Sick leave usage will then reduce Pre-Contract Sick Leave Hours.
Each pay period, employees who work a normal 40-hour workweek receive 3.7 hours of
accrued sick leave.
Upon retirement, any balance in Pre-Contract Sick Leave Hours will be paid out at 100%
times the employee’s salary rate. Any balance in Post-Contract Sick Leave Hours will be
paid out at 25% times the employee’s salary rate.
The impact of this change has been calculated by comparing anticipated sick leave
accruals and usage for 2006 and 2007, with the current rule of full payout and the new
rule of splitting sick leave accruals into two groups of hours. No impact is anticipated for
2005 or 2006. The fiscal impact of this change is a reduction in payout costs of
($678,000) for 2007. This cost savings represents the variance between sick leave payout
under these two rules, if all union members retired in those years. This cost savings will
not be achieved until the employees do retire, but provides a guide to the cost impact.
For 2007, it is anticipated that the union will have total accrued hours of 979,000, with a
full payout cost of $18,825,000. If the sick leave revision is approved, then the payout
for 1,428 union members, who started before January 1, 1994, will be reduced to
$12,915,000. The 2,195 Post-1993 employees will still receive a full 100% payout of
$5,232,000. This is a new combined payout of $18,147,000; a savings of $678,000. The
County will achieve some immediate fiscal impact, because it is required to accrue a sick
leave liability for certain employees who are in the proprietary funds. This savings is not
a one-time savings but is a savings that is planned to be obtained each year.

County of Milwaukee

Confidential - Revised Mod 4

January 22, 2007

District Council 48, AFSCME, AFL-CIO and its Affiliated Locals (170, 567, 594, 645, 882, 1055, 1654 and 1656)

Contract 2005 - 2008

Page 13
The budgetary fiscal impact shown in table 1 is only $100,000. This is due to the fact
that any changes in sick leave accruals must be charged to Proprietary fund departments
each year. As a result, when a person retires from a Proprietary Fund department, a
reserve is available to pay the cost of accrued sick leave. The General Fund departments
do not have a fiscal impact until a person retires from the County, and the full sick leave
payout cost is charged to the department.

Administrative Costs Associated With Implementing This Contract:
To implement this contract, personnel in the Department of Administrative Services and IMSD
will have to input the rate changes into the Genesys HRP System and into the new Ceridian
Human Resource System. Back Payments will have to be made for Union members, under the
Union offer, since the agreement would be ratified after the effective date of the first wage
increase of November 6, 2006. This back payment will require internal effort and will take time
to calculate. Other projects may be delayed in preparing these adjustments. For wage rates, and
health plan changes, the implementation will require internal time and effort, but is not
considered to require outside resources, at this time. The number of personal hours to complete
this task has not been determined yet, but other projects may be delayed to implement this
contract.
In addition, the splitting of the sick leave hours into two accrual balances will require
reprogramming of the Genesys system and the Ceridian system. A cost estimate for this change
has not been provided to us.
The above information was prepared by the Department of Administrative Services and reviewed
by the Department of Audit and County Board Research Staff.
The Fiscal Impact portion of this statement was prepared by the Department of Administrative
Services.

Steve, this is rough and no one has revewied it. Feel free to chop it up and
send it back. Once you and I are comfortable with it we can share with our
bosses and make further changes as needed. How does that sound for a plan? I
did talk to our old Bond Counsel today and he answered my questions so I am
much more comfortable.
Thanks for you help on this. I think I will like working with you. :)    PSI do have a call into the State Budget Director to see what I can find out in
terms of status on this issue from that front. Needless to say, they are very
busy right now. David and I go way back so I hopefully he will call.

Governor James Doyle
State of Wisconsin
State Capitol
Madison, Wisconsin 53703
Dear Governor Doyle:
Attached for your review and consideration is proposed statutory language changes that would
enable Milwaukee County to issue Pension Obligations Bonds (POBs) as a means of financing
Milwaukee County’s unfunded accrued pension liability currently estimated at approximately
$455 million.
Specifically, the proposed statutory changes would extend the repayment period for promissory
notes from 10 years to 20 years and would allow Milwaukee County to issue long-term
obligations for a term in excess of the 20-year limit applicable to general obligation debt. The
proposed revisions would apply only to debt issued for the purpose of financing Milwaukee
County’s unfunded pension obligations.
The proposal we are submitting was modeled after the statutory language changes required in
2003 to enable the State to take similar steps to finance its unfunded prior service liabilities for
employee pensions. In addition, Milwaukee County’s proposal is not unlike the authorization
provided to the Milwaukee Public School System (MPS) when in 2003 the State Legislature
authorized MPS to issue debt for its unfunded prior service liability to the Wisconsin Retirement
System.
As you are well aware, there has been a great deal of discussion and debate over the long-term
financial stability of Milwaukee County. With the assistance and support of the State Task Force
on Milwaukee County that you appointed and the work of the Greater Milwaukee Committee,
Milwaukee County is making progress on taking steps to ensure the long-term fiscal stability of
the County. However, we continue to struggle under the fiscal pressures related to funding both
our pension system and our retiree health care costs. The ability to issue long-term pension
obligations bonds is a critical component to our success and we are asking the State to partner
with us by providing the financial flexibility as proposed on the attached.
We look forward to working with you and appreciate your assistance and support on this matter.
Sincerely,

Scott Walker
Milwaukee County Executive

Lee Holloway
Chairman, Milwaukee County Board of
Supervisors

Good morning!
After reviewing the Finance committee agenda, item # 11, regarding the monthly
report on Health Expenditures, I propose that with the creation of a separate
Division of Benefits, that the report be dually submitted by DAS as well as the
director (when found) of the Division of Benefits..going forward.
Also you may want to reveiw the status of the applications that you have
received with Rob and/or myself for the Director of Benefits before you
leave. If we have not found worthy candidates, then we need to sit down to
develop a more aggressive plan of recruiting.
Good luck tonight!

Dear Governor Doyle:
Attached for your review and consideration is proposed statutory language changes that would
enable Milwaukee County to issue Pension Obligations Bonds (POBs) as a means of financing all
or part of Milwaukee County’s unfunded accrued pension liability.
As you are well aware, there has been a great deal of discussion and debate over the long-term
financial stability of Milwaukee County. With the assistance and support of the State Task Force
on Milwaukee County that you appointed, Milwaukee County is making progress on taking steps
to ensure the long-term fiscal stability of the County. For example, Milwaukee County has
significantly reduced its long-term pension and health care costs in the most recent labor
agreements.
However, we continue to struggle under the fiscal pressures related to funding both our pension
system and our employee/retiree health care costs while continuing to provide mandated services.
The ability to issue long-term pension obligations bonds is a critical component to our success
and we are asking the State to partner with us by providing the financial flexibility as proposed on
the attached.
Specifically, the proposed statutory changes would extend the repayment period for promissory
notes from 10 years to 20 years and would allow Milwaukee County to issue long-term
obligations for a term in excess of the 20-year limit applicable to general obligation debt. The
proposed revisions would apply only to debt issued for the purpose of financing Milwaukee
County’s unfunded pension obligations, which is currently estimated at approximately $455
million.
The proposal we are submitting was modeled after the statutory language changes required in

Your letter was very good. I just took out references to GMC and moved up the
Task Force in the letter. Threw in a passing reference to mandates and a few
cc's. I also wanted to clarify that the POB's could be for all or part of the
unfunded liability. Let me know if you want to edit further. I'll take it to
the Chairman as soon as you are comfortable with taking it to the CEX.

Steve, this is rough and no one has revewied it. Feel free to chop it up and
send it back. Once you and I are comfortable with it we can share with our
bosses and make further changes as needed. How does that sound for a plan? I
did talk to our old Bond Counsel today and he answered my questions so I am
much more comfortable.
Thanks for you help on this. I think I will like working with you. :)    PSI do have a call into the State Budget Director to see what I can find out in
terms of status on this issue from that front. Needless to say, they are very
busy right now. David and I go way back so I hopefully he will call.

Dear Governor Doyle:
Attached for your review and consideration is proposed statutory language changes that would
enable Milwaukee County to issue Pension Obligations Bonds (POBs) as a means of financing all
or part of Milwaukee County’s unfunded accrued pension liability.
As you are well aware, there has been a great deal of discussion and debate over the long-term
financial stability of Milwaukee County. With the assistance and support of the State Task Force
on Milwaukee County that you appointed, Milwaukee County is making progress on taking steps
to ensure the long-term fiscal stability of the County. For example, Milwaukee County has
significantly reduced its long-term pension and health care costs in the most recent labor
agreements.
However, we continue to struggle under the fiscal pressures related to funding both our pension
system and our employee/retiree health care costs while continuing to provide mandated services.
The ability to issue long-term pension obligations bonds is a critical component to our success
and we are asking the State to partner with us by providing the financial flexibility as proposed on
the attached.
Specifically, the proposed statutory changes would extend the repayment period for promissory
notes from 10 years to 20 years and would allow Milwaukee County to issue long-term
obligations for a term in excess of the 20-year limit applicable to general obligation debt. The
proposed revisions would apply only to debt issued for the purpose of financing Milwaukee
County’s unfunded pension obligations, which is currently estimated at approximately $455
million.
The proposal we are submitting was modeled after the statutory language changes required in
2003 to enable the State to take similar steps to finance its unfunded prior service liabilities for
employee pensions. In addition, Milwaukee County’s proposal is similar to the authorization
provided to the Milwaukee Public School System (MPS) when in 2003 the State Legislature
authorized MPS to issue debt for its unfunded prior service liability to the Wisconsin Retirement
System.
We look forward to working with you and appreciate your assistance and support on this matter.
Sincerely,

Dear POB Work Group:
I believe that everyone has now found comfort with the proposed statutory
language changes that are desired to develop a POB proposal. I've drafted a
memo to the CEX and CB Chairman to "officially" recommend the language. It is
my understanding that the CEX and CB Chairman may be drafting a communication
to the Governor and other state policymakers to forward the proposed language
in hopes of securing a spot in the 2007-09 Budget.
If anyone (such as Pam, for example) has any final concerns about the statutory
language, or suggestions for our transmittal memo, please let me know as soon
as possible. Thanks again.

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
Interoffice Memorandum

DATE:

January 25, 2007

TO:

Scott K. Walker, County Executive
Supervisor Lee Holloway, Chairman, Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors

FROM:

Pension Obligation Bond (POB) Work Group
Memo prepared by: Steve Cady

SUBJECT:

Proposed Statutory Language Changes to Enable Milwaukee County to Issue Pension
Obligation Bonds

The 2007 Adopted Budget directed the creation of a Work Group to “develop a
recommended pension obligation bond proposal for review and approval by the Committee
on Finance and Audit and County Board of Supervisors.” The POB Work Group consists of
staff from the Department of Administrative Services, Corporation Counsel, Department of
Audit, County Board, an actuary, outside bond counsel and financial advisors.
The first task is the development of the financing mechanisms needed to construct a pension
obligation bond proposal in light of the current statutory restrictions on county borrowing.
The County’s former bond counsel drafted proposed statutory language changes that would
provide Milwaukee County significant flexibility in the development of a pension obligation
bond proposal. The proposed statutory language is attached to this memo.
The POB Work Group reviewed the proposed statutory language and recommends that it be
forwarded to State policymakers for consideration and approval. It should be noted that an
actuary was not retained to review the proposed statutory language as it is clearly outside the
purview of their anticipated role on the POB Work Group.
Per the direction of the 2007 Adopted Budget, and with your support, the proposed statutory
language changes will be shared with Intergovernmental Relations staff in order to help
secure state policymaker approval.

otherwise provided in an authorizing resolution, the county may issue appropriation obligations at
any time, in any specific amounts, at any rates of interest, for any term, payable at any intervals,

county by the chairperson of the board and county clerk, and shall be sealed with the seal of the
county, if any. Facsimile signatures of either such officer may be imprinted in lieu of manual
signatures, but the signature of at least one such officer shall be manual. An appropriation
obligation bearing the manual or facsimile signature of a person in office at the same time such
signature was signed or imprinted shall be fully valid notwithstanding that before or after the
delivery of such appropriation obligation such person ceased to hold such office.
(c)
Every appropriation obligation shall be dated not later than the date it is issued,
shall contain a reference by date to the appropriate authorizing resolution or resolutions, shall
state the limitation established in sub. (3)(f), and shall be in accordance with the appropriate
authorizing resolution or resolutions in all respects.
(d)
An appropriation obligation shall be in such form and contain such statements or
terms as determined by the board, which form, statements and terms may not conflict with law or
with the appropriate authorizing resolution or resolutions.
(6)

REFUNDING OBLIGATIONS.

(a) 1. A board may authorize the issuance of appropriation obligation refunding
obligations. Refunding obligations may be issued, subject to any contract rights vested in owners
of the appropriation obligations being refunded, to refund all or any portion of one or more issues
of appropriation obligations notwithstanding that such refunded appropriation obligations may
have been issued at different times. The principal amount of the refunding obligations may not
exceed the sum of: the principal amount of the appropriation obligations being refunded;
applicable redemption premiums; unpaid interest on the refunded appropriation obligations to the
date of delivery or exchange of the refunding obligations; in the event the proceeds are to be
deposited in trust as provided in par. (c), interest to accrue on the appropriation obligations to be
refunded from the date of delivery to the date of maturity or to the redemption date selected by
the board, whichever is earlier; and the expenses incurred in the issuance of the refunding
obligations and the payment of the refunded appropriation obligations.
2.
A determination by the board that a refinancing is advantageous, or that any of
the amounts provided under subd. 1. should be included in the refinancing, shall be conclusive.
(b)
If a board determines to exchange refunding obligations, they may be exchanged
privately for and in payment and discharge of any of the outstanding appropriation obligations
being refunded. Refunding obligations may be exchanged for such principal amount of the
appropriation obligations being exchanged therefor as may be determined by the board to be
necessary or desirable. The owners of the appropriation obligations being refunded who elect to
exchange need not pay accrued interest on the refunding obligations if and to the extent that
interest is accrued and unpaid on the appropriation obligations being refunded and to be
surrendered. If any of the appropriation obligations to be refunded are to be called for
redemption, the board shall determine which redemption dates are to be used, if more than one

4

CArcher_Email3010615

date is applicable and shall, prior to the issuance of the refunding obligations, provide for notice
of redemption to be given in the manner and at the times required by the resolution authorizing
the appropriation obligations to be refunded.
(c) 1. The principal proceeds from the sale of any refunding obligations shall be
applied either to the immediate payment and retirement of the appropriation obligations being
refunded or, if the obligations have not matured and are not presently redeemable, to the creation
of a trust for and shall be pledged to the payment of the appropriation obligations being refunded.
2.
If a trust is created, a separate deposit shall be made for each issue of
appropriation obligations being refunded. Each deposit shall be with a bank or trust company that
is a member of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. If the total amount of any deposit,
including money other than sale proceeds but legally available for such purpose, is less than the
principal amount of the appropriation obligations being refunded and for the payment of which
the deposit has been created and pledged, together with applicable redemption premiums and
interest accrued and to accrue to maturity or to the date or to the date of redemption, then the
application of the sale proceeds shall be legally sufficient only if the money deposited is invested
in securities issued by the United States or one of its agencies, or securities fully guaranteed by
the United States, and only if the principal amount of the securities at maturity and the income
therefrom to maturity will be sufficient and available, without the need for any further investment
or reinvestment, to pay at maturity or upon redemption the principal amount of the appropriation
obligations being refunded together with applicable redemption premiums and interest accrued
and to accrue to maturity or to the date of redemption. The income from the principal proceeds of
the securities shall be applied solely to the payment of the principal of and interest and
redemption premiums on the appropriation obligations being refunded, but provision may be
made for the pledging and disposition of any surplus.
3.
Nothing in this subdivision may be construed as a limitation on the duration of
any deposit in trust for the retirement of appropriation obligations being refunded that have not
matured and that are not presently redeemable. Nothing in this subdivision may be constructed to
prohibit reinvestment of the income of a trust if the reinvestments will mature at such times that
sufficient monies will be available to pay interest, applicable premiums, and principal on the
appropriation obligations being refunded.
(7)

FISCAL REGULATIONS.

(a)
All appropriation obligations shall be registered by the county clerk or county
treasurer of the county issuing such obligations, or such other officers or agents including fiscal
agents, as the board may determine. After such registration, no transfer of an appropriation
obligation shall be valid unless made on the records of the county by the registered owner in
person or by the registered owner's duly authorized attorney and similarly noted on the
appropriation obligation, and the county may treat the registered owner as the owner of the
appropriation obligation for all purposes. Payments of principal and interest shall be by
electronic funds transfer, check, share draft, or other draft to the registered owner at the owner’s
address as it appears on the register, unless the board has otherwise provided. Information in the
register is not available for inspection and copying under s. 19.35(1). The board may make any
other provision respecting registration as it considers necessary or desirable.
(c)
The board may appoint one or more trustees or fiscal agents for each issue of
appropriation obligations. The county treasurer may be designated as the trustee and the sole
fiscal agent or as co-fiscal agent for any issue of appropriation obligations. Every other fiscal

5

CArcher_Email3010616

agent shall be an incorporated bank or trust company authorized by the laws of the United States
or of the state in which it is located to conduct banking or trust company business. There may be
deposited with a trustee, in a special account, moneys to be used only for the purposes expressly
provided in the resolution authorizing the issuance of appropriation obligations or an agreement
between the county and the trustee. The board may make other provisions respecting trustees and
fiscal agents as the board considers necessary or desirable and may enter into contacts with any
trustee or fiscal agent containing such terms, including compensation, and conditions in regard to
the trustee or fiscal agent as the board considers necessary or desirable.
(d)
If any appropriation obligation is destroyed, lost, or stolen, the county shall
execute and deliver a new appropriation obligation, upon filing with the board evidence
satisfactory to the board that the appropriation obligation has been destroyed, lost, or stolen, upon
providing proof of ownership thereof, and upon furnishing the board with indemnity satisfactory
to it and complying with such other rules of the county and paying any expenses that the county
may incur. The board shall cancel the appropriation obligation surrendered to the county.
(e)
Unless otherwise directed by the board, every evidence of appropriation
obligation paid or otherwise retired shall be marked "canceled" and delivered to the county
treasurer or to such other fiscal agent as applicable with respect to the appropriation obligation,
who shall destroy them and deliver a certificate to that effect.
(8)

APPROPRIATION OBLIGATIONS AS LEGAL INVESTMENTS.

Any of the following may legally invest any sinking funds, moneys, or other funds
belonging to them or under their control in any appropriation obligations issued under this
section:
(a)
The state, the state investment board, public officers, municipal corporations,
political subdivisions, and public bodies.
(b)
Banks and bankers, savings and loan associations, credit unions, trust companies,
savings banks and institutions, investment companies, insurance companies, insurance
associations, and other persons carrying on a banking or insurance business.
(c)

Personal representatives, guardians, trustees, and other fiduciaries.

(10)
MORAL OBLIGATION PLEDGE. If the board considers it necessary or
desirable to do so, it may express in a resolution or resolutions authorizing appropriation
obligations its expectation and aspiration to make timely appropriations sufficient to pay the
principal of and interest due with respect to such appropriation obligations, to make deposits into
any reserve fund created under sub. (2)(b)3. with respect to such appropriation obligations, to
make payments under any agreement or ancillary arrangement entered into under s. 59.86 with
respect to such appropriation obligations, to make deposits into any stabilization fund established
or continued under s. 59.87 with respect to such appropriation obligations, or to pay related
issuance or administrative expenses.
[Revision to § 67.01(9)]

(9)
This chapter is not applicable to appropriation obligations issued by a
county under s. 59.85 and, except ss. 67.08(1), 67.09 and 67.10, is not applicable:

system established under county ordinances, and at any time thereafter so long as such
appropriation obligations or notes are outstanding, a county having a population of 500,000 or
more may enter into agreements and ancillary arrangements relating to such appropriation
obligations or notes, including trust indentures, liquidity facilities, remarketing or dealer

MPM, Inc.
Following the disclosure of its financial crisis, MPM initiated improvement in its
financial controls and governance to eliminate the possibility of those circumstances
reoccurring. In addition, to size the operation to the income volume, MPM has
reduced operating expenses from $23 million in fiscal 2005 to $14.5 million in 2006
and to a projected $12.5 million in 2007. Staff levels have been reduced by 42% and
additional consolidating actions have further reduced operating expenses. In order to
address short-term cash needs in 2007, MPM has stated that it will take further cost
reduction actions and generate additional donor support. More resources will be
directed toward marketing efforts to drive increases in attendance.
The MPM Board of Directors and management will complete a capital campaign
feasibility study, establish leadership for the campaign and launch the campaign. The
goals of the campaign will be to:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.

Provide matching funds for the $5 million challenge grant.
Improve MPM permanent exhibits and educational programs
Provide funding of world class exhibits to bring to the community
Reestablish scientific resources and expertise in curatorial and research areas
Add new exhibits and programs
Fund additional debt reduction
Grow MPM’s endowment funds to support mission-related activities. (The
campaign assumes raising a minimum of $25 million in addition to the $10
million raised through the Bradley challenge grant.)

Discovery World
MPM has agreed to purchase the old Discovery World building under terms that are
significantly reduced from the original agreement. The new agreement provides for a
total purchase price of $3 million with payment terms per attached Schedule B.
Funding of the purchase will be through restricted donations directed for that purpose.
The $500,000 payment due at closing has been secured by donations from the
Bradley Foundation ($350,000) and M&I Bank ($150,000) and will be made
available upon approval of this agreement by the Milwaukee County Board of
Supervisors.
ANALYSIS
There are several risks inherent in the Recovery Plan. A balloon payment of
approximately $13.4 million is due in 2017. If MPM is unable to raise enough funds to
make the balloon payment, the loan would be in default or, if the lenders agree, could
again be restructured. The inability to predict the Museum’s financial condition in 2017,
especially since it hinges in largely on the success of a capital fundraising campaign,
makes it difficult to assess MPM’s ability to meet this loan obligation. There is also the
risk per the terms and conditions with the Bank if MPM does not hit fundraising
benchmarks they could be in default – do we want to include that?

CArcher_Email3010648

Review and Analysis of Museum Recovery Plan Report
June 4, 2007

Page 7

The Plan requires Milwaukee County to provide baseline funding of $3.5 million for
MPM operations that would remain level for ten years. In recent years, Milwaukee
County has refrained from such commitments because of its own financial problems.
Other county entities have not been offered similar funding arrangements. The Plan also
provides a $4 million capital improvement commitment over the next five years, or an
average of $800,000 per year. There is no requirement, however, that the County
appropriate funds in each of the five years. As a comparison, Milwaukee County has
expended or allocated $3.99?? million in capital improvements between 2003 and 2007,
or an average of ???
The goals of MPM’s capital campaign are extensive in terms of the dollar amounts raised
and how the funds will be used. Just how much of the funds raised through the campaign
that could be secured for additional debt reduction is unknown. It is expected that
donations for new permanent exhibits, special exhibits and educational programs will
increase revenues thereby stabilizing MPM’s operations.
Even though Milwaukee County would be committing to a certain funding level over ten
years, there is no guarantee that MPM will be able to generate the $30 million identified
as its fund raising goal. Declining attendance, outside of “blockbuster” exhibits, will
remain an issue for MPM. Their existing five-year operating plan includes special
exhibits for each of the first five years of the Recovery Plan to bolster attendance at both
the museum and IMAX Theater. Failure to secure a successful special exhibit each year
is likely to significantly impact projected attendance figures and result in revenue
shortfalls.
Although there are several inherent risks within the Recovery Plan there are also several
ramifications that should be expected if the Recovery Plan is not approved. First, failure
to secure a mutually acceptable financial Recovery Plan would possibly lead to the
bankruptcy of the Milwaukee Public Museum. As noted previously, MPM believes that
if a Recovery Plan is not in place by the end of June, they will not be able to meet
payroll. Should operations of the museum revert back to Milwaukee County, the donor
community may not be as willing to donate to the County as it would to a private, nonprofit entity.

Second, if MPM decides to declare bankruptcy in the absence of a financial recovery
plan, Milwaukee County’s debt exposure on the working capital loan would be
$4,661,000 and as high as $4,980,000 if the remaining revolver loan funds were released
by the Financial Oversight Committee. The Recovery Plan will reduce the County’s
exposure by committing donations to be used to retire the County-guaranteed debt.
Under the terms, $2 million of the debt will be paid by the end of 2007, leaving
approximately 2.7 million, which would be less than the County’s annual operating
payment to MPM. Also, the Plan will reduce MPM’s overall debt burden and provide

CArcher_Email3010649

Review and Analysis of Museum Recovery Plan Report
June 4, 2007

Page 8

budgetary relief. In turn, a more stable fiscal environment should help attract donors and
special revenue-producing exhibits.
Finally, Milwaukee County would be ensuring the integrity of the Museum and
Discovery World complex assets for the public. This would be accomplished through a
five-year capital funding commitment for the Museum building and the resolution of
MPM’s purchase of Discovery World made prior to the June 2005 financial crisis. MPM
will be able to acquire Discovery World at a lower price than originally agreed upon.
Successful sale of Discovery World to MPM is expected to increase the comfort level of
potential donors to the capital campaign, especially when coupled with a ten year funding
commitment from the County.
The tenth amendment to the Lease and Management Agreement also provides an
assurance that allows the County to terminate the Lease and Management Agreement in
total or in part if the commitment to extinguish the working capital loan is not
accomplished within three years. Similarly, if at some point MPM, Inc. were not
financially viable, the Lease and Management Agreement would likely dissolve along
with the County’s commitment. What would remain would be the County’s ownership of
a museum and its assets.
ALTERNATIVES
There are essentially two alternatives for the County Board’s consideration:
(1) Approve the Recovery Plan as is presented.
(2) Not approve the Recovery Plan, which may possibly result in the bankruptcy of
MPM and the reversion of the operations to Milwaukee County. The County
would also have debt exposure on at least $4.7 million, and as much as $5 million,
of the $6 million working capital loan.

debt meeting
Monday, January 29, 2007 1:24:13 PM

ok, here is the part where I need your help. I would like us to meet to go
over our debt picture. It is time when you can give me an overview, tell me
your conerns, etc.
As I think about this, it would be helpful if you could give me some historical
backround such as:
        Annual GO debt service for last 10 years
        Sales tax collections over same time period (since I understand this is
how we make the debt service payments)
        Is there surplus sales tax revenue?
        How much of a hit will operations take when sales tax can no longer be
used for operations after this year?
        What is our projected 2008 debt service payments and what assumptions
would you make about new bonding in 2008?
        List of captial projects we have bonded for (GO Debt) over last three
years with bond amount and cash amount.
        What are our limitations on borrowing? (term, statutory limit, county
ordiance, other).
I get the sense that people think debt is free money. You and I, I suspect
would agree that it is not. As I mentioned, I think we will be facing pressure
to assume some (if not all) of the Museum's debt and now I hear there is
interest on the Board to bond for fixing the light house. My initial reaction
to the lighthouse is it should be submitted as part of the 2008 budget process
and considered along with all other projects. But I want to talk to you about
it.
I would like to sit down this week and go over these things. Let me know when
you think you will be ready or when you will have time.

Do you understand the below? I don't have my notes with me, but I figured I
have lost about $5,000 (the difference between the rate I am making now and the
rate in my appointment letter multiplied by the number of hours I have worked
at the lower rate. ) My appointment letter said $113,370, so I added the amount
to get to about $117,000. What am I missing here?

My appointment letter said $113,370 (2080 hours or $54.505). I have been
working at $40.2769 for period 12/11-2/12. or 360 hours. I took the

salary. Let me know what you think.

Linda, I would like to resolve this today if possible. I have attached the
spreadsheet if you want to forward to Eggers. He also needs to check if wage
adjustment can be made in middle of pay period. I am not sure it can.

HiMike and I have been working on updating all of the information in the
spreadsheets that Steve sent. We need some information from both of you to
complete it. Here is what we need asap (Cindy said this is her #1 priority):
Pam:
For 2007-2012
Debt Service Payments (Based on current estimates)
Capital Expenditures (From 5-Year Capital Plan)
Debt Levy: Projected based on Debt Service (From 5-Year Capital Plan)
Levy Cap Amount
Sales Taxes - We did a 1% increase per year
Bond Proceeds - (From 5-Year Capital Plan)
Capital Improvement Revenue- (From 5-Year Capital Plan)
Scott:
For 2008 and 2012
Medicare Reimbursement for Reitirees - We did a 15% per year increase
Pension Contribution - Based on current UAAL estimates
Emplyee Health Care Contributions (2006-2012)
DC 48 Revenue - We used the fiscal note that was approved today. How do you
think this should increase in 2009-2012?
Please see Mike for more detail on what we need. As we discussed, Mike and I
will control the spreadsheet - so we need to get the data and then we will
input it.

The rate that I have calculated in order to break Ms. Archer even with the Appt
Rate promise of $113,370, would be $56.9601.
This is based on the rate of pay that Cindy Archer has been receiving for the
year of $40.2769 and the appointment rate of $54.5048. Ms. Archer will have
received a reduced pay from the promise of $4,439.10 by Feb 1, 2007, when her
new rate takes effect. In order to make up for this difference, she would need
to receive a higher rate of pay over the remaining 1,808 hours of work for
2007.
As indicated, Ms Archer needs to recoup $4,439.10. If this amount is divided by
the 1,808 hours, Ms Archer would need an increase in the her appointment rate
of $2.4553, or a new rate of $56.9601.

Capital Expenditures (From 5-Year Capital Plan)
Debt Levy: Projected based on Debt Service (From 5-Year Capital Plan)
Levy Cap Amount
Sales Taxes - We did a 1% increase per year
Bond Proceeds - (From 5-Year Capital Plan)
Capital Improvement Revenue- (From 5-Year Capital Plan)
Scott:

Hi.
I have been meaning to reply, but things are a bit hectic. So much for the
false notion that once I announce I am leaving we can just have some peace.
But I did want you to know that Paul Shierl told me that he was very sorry you
left Brown County. he blamed it on the board - I did not correct him. He
thought you were extremely talented and bright. He told me you did not always
agree, but he really really liked you and respected you. That is HIGH praise
from a man I really respect.

Please give me some context for this. Can you give me historical collections
for 10 years; what was projected in 2005, 2006 vs what was collected and what
we projected in 2007. How much of 2006 and 2007 collections is dedicated to
debt services vs operational. If 2006 is down, I assume 2007 will be also. How
should we revise our 2007 projections and what steps to we need to take to
ensure no deficit in 2007?

        Sales Tax Revenue





The sales tax revenue amount for November 2006 is $1.1 million below budget.
This increases the projected deficit to $3.1 million. I have contacted the
State for an explanation. Some of the deficit is due to the County
overbudgeting. However, we are $400,000 below the 2005 actual amount for
November and year-to-date growth is around .16 percent. I will keep you posted.

Bob Bush - former CEO of Schreiber Cheese.
I am so glad that your appointment is on track. People WILL respect and like
you - no problem there. People here still ask about you and are all hoping you
are happy there. Todd Coisman told me yesterday that you were "so nice" to work
with and wishes you would come back.
Did Molly send you the pics from the employee recognition dinner? I will send.
And speaking of Bill Dowell, he brought his wife to the even and what a classy
lady - and so nice. They make a very attractive couple and seem so happy to be
together.
Read about your labor settlement costs today. Mike and I were musing yesterday
on what would have happened if we had lost our arbitrations. We really did not
have a Plan B, but guess we would have figured it out.
Had lunch with Brian last week - our University Ave Mexican - not the one by
the drug phone booth - and he seemed to be doing somewhat better. I do not see
him returning though. Our life is so boring without you 2!
Other than that the same old same old. Turning over more rocks and finding more
squiggly stuff. Lynn is wonderful and I feel sorry for all the problems she has
to deal with - and holes in our systems and processes. The RFP went on the ERP
went through Admin last night.

Milwaukee Public Museum Recovery Committee
Tuesday, January 23, 2007
2:00-4:00 p.m.
4th Floor Board Room

Welcome
Dr. Mary Meehan, Chair of the committee, called the first meeting of the Milwaukee Public
Museum (MPM) Recovery Committee to order. A quorum was present. Dr. Meehan welcomed
the committee and thanked the members for their dedication to assist MPM, a Milwaukee
treasure. She stated that although it was suggested that the commitment by the group may last
several months, she strongly felt that the faster the committee could accomplish the task, the
better for all concerned.
Introductions
The members of the committee introduced themselves.
Charge to the Committee
County Executive Scott Walker welcomed the committee and thanked them for their
participation. He stated that the County has a very vested interest in the future of MPM, not only
as former overseers and current landlord, but in a larger sense due to the quality of life it adds to
the community. He reported that the Mike Falbo, the chair of the museum’s Financial Oversight
Committee suggested to him and to the County Board Chair that this committee be established,
assembling stakeholders from the banks, county, and community, who have vested interests in
the long term success of the museum. Mr. Walker thanked Linda Seemeyer who would soon be
leaving Milwaukee County service, for her great work; and further thanked the committee for
their work not just to stabilize the museum, but to put in on track for growth.
Review of Open Meetings & Records
Bob Andrews from the Milwaukee County Corporate Counsel’s office, presented information to
the committee regarding Chapter 19 of the Wisconsin Statutes regarding open meetings and
records. He reported that the committee should assume that any records reviewed by the

MPM Recovery Committee – 1/23/07

DRAFT
committee may be examined by the public at their request. He reported on the rules for posting
open meetings: a meeting notice stating date, time, location and subject matter of meeting must
be posted publicly and sent to those individuals who requested information regarding the entity’s
meetings; the notice must be posted timely—a minimum of 24 hours prior to the meeting. The
county generally posts notice one week prior to meetings. He noted that seven persons would
constitute a quorum for this committee, which would indicated that four votes (a majority of that
quorum) would be required to pass an action. He further explained that email communication
where four or more members of the committee are corresponding, could be considered a meeting,
so members should be careful to avoid taking any positions regarding actions. He stated that
simple passing of information is okay. He further reported that closed sessions of the committee
are permitted if noted on the agenda for the purpose of discussing bargaining or competitive
issues.
Financial Overview of Museum
Mr. Bernatz presented MPM's financial position and projects; hardcopies of the presentation
were distributed (attached hereto as Exhibit A).
Additional information was requested regarding depreciation and interest expense. Depreciation
was $1.284 million in 2005 and $1.1 million in 2006 (leasehold and exhibit depreciation);
interests costs were as follows: 2002: $711,000, 2003: $695,000; 2004: $826,000; 2005:
$917,000; and 2006 $1.174 million.
Mr. Schlifske requested that Mr. Bernatz send the latest financials to the committee. Additional
questions included information regarding MPM Board composition, museum attendance,
marketing efforts, the impact of the Discovery World move, and potential for refunding of bonds.
Mr. Schlifske noted that as of the Board’s annual meeting in February 2007, only one board
member will remain who was on the board for at least 3 years prior to the revelations of the
inappropriate financial actions taken. He further noted that this board member is a county
appointee who chose to remain on the board after the board voted to establish term limits. Mr.
Finley provided some highlights of recent market research and the strategic direction of the
museum. Mr. Bernatz reported that attendance numbers have been down, noting that the
Planetarium tickets are filling the void left by the decrease in IMAX attendance, but totals are not
currently meeting projections. Dr. Meehan requested that a brief presentation of the museum’s
marketing be added to the next meeting’s agenda. Mr. Lindsey is to provide information at the
next meeting regarding price comparisons of similar venues in the area, including ticket,
membership and parking rates. Mr. Bernatz reported that two of the three outstanding bond
issues have interest rate swaps in place expiring in 2008. The 1999 Series B has a floating
interest rate.
Process and Timelines
Dr. Meehan stated that the scope of the committee is the big picture. She further stated that the
major challenge is the elimination of debt, that bankruptcy should not be an option, and the
timeframe is the faster, the better.

HIGHLIGHTS OF
FOCUS GROUP FINDINGS
Yet, many think museum has little that is new
and that it is stodgy:
“The last time I was there the exhibits looked
old and tired and there was nothing new. Same
old, same old.”
 “I don’t think it is interesting enough. Should
have other things besides old mastodons. Don’t
get me wrong. I like to learn. I like
documentaries, but I don’t think that is
there….”

HIGHLIGHTS OF
FOCUS GROUP FINDINGS
Same theme echoed throughout both sessions.
When asked whether they would recommend
museum to a new neighbor:


“You would have a good time the first time, but
it is a bit dated, doesn’t draw you back because
I have seen the SAME exact thing since I was
10. That’s OK with (the Zoo) because (animals)
do things …... But when you look at a
stationary exhibit and same EXACT exhibit
since you were 10, you can’t help being bored.”

HIGHLIGHTS OF
FOCUS GROUP FINDINGS
Other factors identified in focus groups as
barriers to visiting:

Don’t know what is there
 Perceived downtown traffic and construction
issues
 Difficulty/cost parking near museum

Milwaukee Public Museum, Intercept Study  2006

HOW THE STUDY WAS CONDUCTED
•

This intercept survey of Milwaukee Public Museum visitors was commissioned in Spring
of 2006 by the Milwaukee Public Museum (the Museum) under the direction of Lisa
Berman, Vice President of Marketing and Communications. The objective of this study
was to assist Museum staff in better understanding the motivations and interests of
Museum attendees.

•

The study involved intercept interviews with 299 individuals who were at the Museum
during peak attendance periods. The study was designed to coincide with the
Museum’s Vatican exhibit, which drew large crowds. Initial interviewing took place
during the weekends of May 20-21 and May 26-28. The study was completed during
the week of May 29.

•

Interviewing was conducted by Lein/Spiegelhoff under the supervision of Wendy
Blumenthal, president of Blumenthal & Associates. A detailed interviewer training
session was conducted and a Museum orientation was held the first day of
interviewing.

•

Specific quotas were established to ensure that the study included those visiting the
Vatican exhibit, IMAX and the Museum in general. These were as follows:

Vatican Exhibit – Quota 90 total adults/ 72 must live the six-county southeastern
Wisconsin area

IMAX Movie—Quota 60 total adults

General Museum exhibits – Quota 150 total/ Maximum 45 Museum members

•

A small incentive was provided to respondents which included two free admission
passes to the Museum, a discount coupon for any Museum gift shop and a candy bar.

•

While the survey was originally planned with an eight-minute interview, actual
interviewing time ran between 10 and 12 minutes. Due to the difficulty interviewers
encountered in meeting the quotas for IMAX, interviewing ran several days longer than
anticipated.

•

The major, unanticipated limitation to this study is that many of those who said they
were visiting the Museum’s permanent exhibits were also seeing the Vatican show.

•

A large amount of data from this survey is available for further analysis. Copies of all
cross tabulations and frequency counts were delivered to the Museum and can be
made available electronically.

•

This report contains a narrative summary as well as copies of all frequency counts,
four-color charts of these findings and relevant cross tabulations.

CArcher_Email3010788

Milwaukee Public Museum, Intercept Study  2006

HIGHLIGHTS OF SURVEY FINDINGS
•

Two thirds of those in this study indicated they were planning to see or had seen the
Vatican exhibit. Of interest is that the same number (66.2%) reported that they were
seeing general exhibits at the Museum.

•

While the Milwaukee Public Museum faces some major challenges, most of these are
not at the top of mind for the majority of Museum visitors. For example:
 When asked what negative things “you have heard people say about coming to
the Museum or the Museum itself,” only 20% mentioned the Museum’s financial
crisis and only 2% stated that exhibits are not new.
 When asked to rate “the Museum’s permanent exhibits” on a 5-point scale, with
a “1” being Poor and a “5” being Excellent, more than three-fourths of those
interviewed (78%) gave a rating of 4 or 5.
 Similarly, when asked to rate the “overall condition of the Museum building”
using the same scale, 91% gave a rating of 4 or 5.

•

Overall, most Museum visitors in this study find that their experience in visiting the
Museum has been extremely positive:
 92% give a rating of 4 or 5 for “friendliness and helpfulness of Museum staff.”
And, almost two thirds of all those interviewed rated the staff a 5 in this
question.
 87% either Strongly Agreed or Agreed that “the Museum has new and
interesting things to see,” although it is likely that this is influenced by the large
numbers of visitors (66%) who indicated they were there to see the Vatican
exhibit.

•

Despite the fact that tickets for the Vatican exhibit were priced at $18, there appears
to be little price resistance to ticket prices:
 84% either Strongly Agreed or Agreed that “tickets for the Museum are
reasonably priced.” This figure jumped to 88.6% among IMAX attendees.
 Almost two thirds (64.5%) gave a rating of 4 or 5 (in a 5-point scale where a
“1” was Poor and a “5” Excellent) for the statement “the cost of tickets
compared to other area attractions.”

When asked to rate seven options that “might encourage people to make a return visit
within the next two months,” using a 1 (Not effective) to 5 (Highly effective) scale, the
top three highest rated items were:
 New special exhibit aimed at adults
 New high tech interactive permanent exhibits
 $2 off coupon for general museum or IMAX admission

(Mean score 3.98)
(Mean score 3.79)
(Mean score 3.65)

•

A film “tied in with a Museum special exhibit” topped the list of IMAX possibilities that
those interviewed would be most likely to see. Using a 1 (Highly Unlikely to Attend) to
5 (Highly Likely to Attend) scale, the tie-in film had a mean score of 4.19. Next
highest scores were for “Oceans and marine life” (Mean score 3.85) and “Exotic
countries and cultures” (Mean score 3.76). The lowest score was for “Thrill or extreme
sport” films.”

•

While a third of these visitors have been to the Milwaukee Art Museum and 24% have
visited a Chicago museum during the past 12 months, very few are members. The
highest membership number was for the Milwaukee Art Museum, with 6.4% reporting
they belonged. Less than 10% had visited Betty Brinn, Urban Ecology of Schlitz
Audubon during the same period.

•

Some 44% report they use the Sunday Milwaukee Journal/Sentinel for planning leisure
activities, while 29% use the Milwaukee Public Museum’s website. One in five report
they use JSonline and OnMilwaukee.com.

However, as the graph to the left
demonstrates. Members of the
Museum visited much more
frequently. For example, 26.5% of
Museum members visited six or more
times during the past year, compared
to only 1.2% of non-members. This
is shown in the chart to the left.

 44.4% reported they were the primary decision maker for this visit to the Museum,
while 44.8% reported it was another adult in their party. Only 5% reported that one
of their children had primary influence and 1.9% said it was their grandchild or
another member of their group.
When the entire sample is examined, the Vatican exhibit is overwhelmingly the main
reason for coming to the Museum on that particular day, followed by the IMAX and
“spending time with kids or family.”

are, however, some interesting findings when this question is examined by age.
The Vatican exhibit has the highest rankings with the older population.
IMAX jumps to almost 15% for those 25 and under.
The Butterfly Exhibit also has the most appeal to those aged 35 – 44.

usually their own children rather than grandchildren. It is difficult to assess whether this
same pattern would hold true when there was no special exhibit at the Museum.

 48.5% reported that they or a member of their group happened to see, hear or read
something about the Museum that influenced their decision to come to the Museum that
day. As the chart above shows, the Milwaukee Journal/Sentinel, word of mouth and
brochures from the Museum were the sources cited most often.

 Those who reported their primary reason for visiting the Museum was the Vatican exhibit
or to see an IMAX movie were more likely to say they were influenced by something they
saw heard or read than those who reported they were coming to see general Museum
exhibits. A similar pattern holds true for those who live outside of Wisconsin. This
information is shown in the cross tabulation tables below:

 Of interest is that two of the major sources of information, Museum brochures and the
Milwaukee Journal/Sentinel, showed different utilization rates for specific market
segments. For example, Museum brochures appear to be utilized more frequently by
those outside of the six-county area, females and those who are 45 – 54 (an age group
that also has a high percentage of Museum members). The Journal/Sentinel was
mentioned with greater frequency by males and, as would be expected, those age 25 and
older. This information is shown below:

 When presented with a list of sources used for planning leisure time activities, the Sunday
Journal/Sentinel was mentioned by more that four of ten survey participants.
 Of interest is that the Museum’s own website was cited by more than a quarter of all of
these visitors.
 Few Museum visitors reported using either Milwaukee Magazine or the Shepherd Express.
 As the chart on the following page demonstrates, there are again variations in this
utilization of various media:

Museum members tend to utilize all media more than their non-Member
counterparts.

As might be anticipated, the Journal/Sentinel is more widely utilized close to
Milwaukee and among those who are older.

Onmilwaukee.com has the greatest usage among those under 35.

The Museum’s own website is cited as a source most frequently by those 25-54 and
by state residents who live outside of southeastern Wisconsin.

POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE PUBLIC PERCEPTIONS
Several survey questions presented respondents with an opportunity to share the positive
and negative things they have heard people say about the Museum. Interviewers read the
questions and coded the responses that were given.
 The results for Question 13, shown below, indicate that the Butterfly exhibit along with
the IMAX, Vatican exhibit and special programs are what create a positive buzz for the
Museum.
 Results from Question 14 indicate that only one of five visitors seems to have any real
awareness of the institution’s financial “crisis.” Further, there does not seem to be any
other negative issues which are addressed by more than 3%.

 The data suggests that the Butterfly exhibit gets the greatest discussion among those
ages 35 – 44 (36.1%) and 25 – 34 (32.6%), which generally coincides with the ages of
those who are parents. Those who mentioned the IMAX with the greatest frequency
were ages 25 – 34:

 The final question in the survey provided another opportunity for open-ended
responses. Here, respondents’ ideas on what they might tell Museum leadership were
solicited, written down and coded. Close to 58% of those interviewed offered ideas.
The most frequently mentioned specific idea was a call to have more or continued
traveling and special exhibits.
25. Finally, if you could give one suggestion to the Museum’s leadership on making
the Museum better, what would your suggestion be?

RATING THE MUSEUM
Two questions allowed survey participants to rate the Museum on a variety of topics. The
first, Question 15, utilized a 5-point scale. The results suggest that those who visit the
Museum are extremely pleased with their experience. Few gave “Fair” or “Poor” ratings.
 The highest ratings were given for the friendliness and helpfulness of staff (Mean
score 4.6), condition of the building (Mean score 4.51) and permanent exhibits
(Mean score 4.38). Two thirds gave the staff an “Excellent” rating.
 A very high number answered “Don’t Know” when asked to rate the website and
café and food service.
15. I’d now like you to rate some aspects of this museum on a 5-point scale, with a “5”
being “Excellent” and a “1” being “Poor”. You may choose any number between and
including 1 through 5. Using this scale how would you rate:

The second rating question examined some of these same topics in a slightly different
manner, asking participants if they Strongly Agree, Agree, Disagree or Strongly Disagree with
a series of statements. These results, shown below, again support visitor satisfaction with the
Museum, with few giving “Disagree” ratings.
 It is worth noting that while the percentage who Agree is relatively high for ticket
pricing, up-to-date exhibits and new things to see, the percentage that Strongly Agree
is much smaller.

 As in the previous question, the issue of price elasticity is confirmed in 16c, with more

Milwaukee Public Museum, Intercept Study  2006
There are variations, as shown on the next page, by membership, what was visited and
residence.
 Members tended to have slightly less positive views than non-members on parking,
up-to-date exhibits and the condition of the building. They are more positive on price,
as might be expected.
 IMAX visitors gave the highest rating on “cost of tickets” compared to Vatican and
General Museum.
 Those outside of the six-county southeastern Wisconsin area gave higher ratings that
those who are from the area.

ENCOURAGING RETURN VISITS
Museum visitors feel that new exhibits, especially those that are aimed at adults and are high
tech or interactive, would be most effective in getting them to return to visit the Museum
during the next two months. This is the finding from Question 18, which presented visitors
with seven options and asked them to rank how effective each might be in encouraging a
return visit within two months. A $2-off discount coupon ranked next in effectiveness. Both
giveaways, such as bobble head dolls, and a family activity day ranked much lower. This
information is shown in the following chart:

Milwaukee Public Museum, Intercept Study  2006
Cross tabulations for this question, shown below, reveal the following:
 While the appeal of special adult oriented exhibits (18a) was fairly consistent among
most segments, the appeal of high tech exhibits (18f) as an incentive to return
increased as respondents became younger, peaking with those under 25. High tech
exhibits also had more appeal among those with children.
 A weekend evening music event with a cash bar (18g) was strongest for Museum
members, those who came to the Museum to visit the Vatican exhibit and those under
35 or 45 – 54.
 The $2-off coupon (18d) had the greatest impact on those under age 25 or overage
75, while a giveaway such as the bobble head (18e) was strong only for those under
25.
 Special exhibits aimed at children 6 – 12 (18b) and Family day activities (18c) had the
strongest appeal among those 25 – 44 and those with children.

IMAX MOVIE PREFERENCES
To assess preferences for IMAX, six types of movies were presented. Respondents asked to
rate the likelihood of their attending each type of film. Results show that visitors prefer
IMAX films that tie in with special exhibits. Other topics scoring high were marine life, exotic
countries and cultures and astronomy and space exploration, as is shown below:

A more in-depth look at reaction to IMAX films comes from the cross tabs, which show the
following:
 A film that ties in to an exhibit appeals to all age groups and types of visitors.
 The only real support for Hollywood films comes from those under age 25.
 Museum members and those who came to see an IMAX film have the greatest interest
in all categories, except Thrill films, which don’t seem to appeal to members.
 Exotic cultures/countries have strongest appeal to older adults.

To All:
Attached is the final revision of the Billing & Collection draft audit report.
This draft report reflects changes resulting from the exit conference with the
Department of Administrative Services on January 22, 2007. As a result of
comments from departments reviewed during the audit, as well as from DAS, we
have added language that better articulates our vision for a 'hybrid'
centralization of collection efforts (please see pages3--4 and 42--45 of the
draft report).

CArcher_Email3010817

There are 15 audit recommendations in the report; 14 are addressed to DAS
(either directly, or as coordinator for a recommended workgroup) and 1 is
addressed to the Clerk of Circuit Court. Therefore, we are requesting written
responses from the Director of Administrative Services and from the Clerk of
Circuit Court.
Please direct any input you wish to have incorporated into the written
response, to be included in the final audit report, to Linda Seemeyer. To
accommodate County Board deadlines, we are requesting written responses from
the Director of Administrative Services and the Clerk of Circuit Court by the
end of business on Monday, February 5, 2007.
Thank you all for your cooperation throughout the audit.

Later this summer, the USS Freedom will be commissioned on our
lakefront at Veteran’s Park. The Navy could have picked anywhere in
the country, but they opted to choose Milwaukee.
In January, a British paper raved that Milwaukee had transformed
itself from an area that “went into decline” to an exciting new venue
and they encouraged readers to choose Milwaukee as a travel
destination.
The same goes for businesses like GE Healthcare Technologies.
They could be based anywhere in the world, yet three a number of
their lmost important argest divisionsbusiness units are based located
right here in Milwaukee County.
Bucyrus International has sites elsewhere in the county but they opted
to choose Milwaukee County to grow their business.
The folks who run the Falk Corporation could have left town after the
tragic explosion last December but they decided to rebuild right here
in Milwaukee County.
These are just a few of the successes in our county. Today, I would
likewant to share the progress we made specifically in county
government over the past twelve months.
A year ago, I laid out a an honest picture warning about the looming
financial challenges facing Milwaukee County of the county. The
message was heard. As a result of what I called the Reality Tour of
2006, key stakeholders – local business leaders, state lawmakers,
County Board members, public citizens and the county’s largest union
-- came to the table to assist us in laying out a fiscal plan for the longterm stability of County Government. The Governor appointed a task
force to fully analyze Milwaukee County’s finances and identify
options for state assistance. Thankfully, we got the attention of the
public. The Greater Milwaukee Committee representing local
business leaders and private citizens also put together a task force to
evaluate the long-term finances of the County. The conclusions of
these groups confirmed the fiscal realities I laid out in Month, 2006
and confirmed the need to change our course. The Governor
CArcher_Email3010889

appointed one too. Each of them the groups looked at the numbers
we put together for the next five years and all agreed that our
projections were correctaccurate.

Today, I am pleased to report that we are steadily making progress in
getting our fiscal house in order. Make no mistake, our fiscal
challenges are structural and developed over a number of years. It
will take time and continued diligence on our part, but we are now
heading in the right direction. our status is much better. There is
hope, but there is also much work to be done to protect the vital
services provided by the county while still seeking to protect the
taxpayers.
In the next few moments, I want to talk about our fiscal progress, our
social progress and our economic progress. I am pleased to report
Thankfully there is good newspositive progress in each area.
Our fiscal condition improved greatly in the past year. Our As you
may recall, my Reality Tour predicted a major shortfall in 2007 and
over the next five years. Pension and health care costs were the
main drivers for the budget gaps.
Thanks to an tentative agreement with our largest union, we have
isolated our the largest pension problem for all of our employees. The
new labor agreement eliminates the lump sum backdrop payments for
all new hires.that were approved in 2002 (for all new employees??.
Not one more person new employee will be eligible for these large
lump sum backdrop payment. This will save the county $XX over the
next XX years.
Also on the Pension front, in (date) In addition, we filled a federal
lawsuit against the actuarial firm that gave incorrect information to the
county prior to the vote on the pension plan enhancements in 2000.
We are confident about our chancges for success in this lawsuit.
Winning this lawsuit would and we hope that the court would require
themaward the county damages that would to cover a significant part
of our the pension liability.
CArcher_Email3010890

Finally, wWith or without a win in the lawsuit, we will pursue a pension
obligation bonds plan this year as recommended in my last budget
and recommended by both the Governor’s task force and the Greater
Milwaukee task force. We must put into place a long-term financing
plan for our unfunded liability for the reitirement system. The plan I
have proposed would provide long-term budgetary relief of
approximately $6.2 million annually, will provide long-term protection
to our retiree’s and would payoff our unfunded liability entirely over
the next 30 years. Today, I am calling on the Governor and state
lawmakers to give us the statutory flexibility to get this job done!A
number of the groups that reviewed our finances identified POBs as
the way to cover the unfunded liability for the retirement system.
Using the plan that was unveiled in our budget, the county could save
$6.25 million annually over the next 30 years. That is long-term
budgetary relief with a strong stabilization fund that provides longterm protection. Through the workgroup defined in the budget, we will
prepare a plan to approve yet this year.
The cost of health care is another area of concern for the county.
Last year, we projected an increase in excess of 100% increase in
employee health care costs these costs over the next five years. We
have made progress on this front as well. During the last year, we
have converted our employee health care system from fully insured to
self-insured resulting in projected savings of $18.7 million____over
four years. the next five years. In addition, we have negotiated labor
agreements with increased employee contributions and lower cost
plan alternatives. The agreement we just negotiated with the
county’s largest union will save the county at least a quarter of a
million dolloars per month. an estimated $300,000 per month. We
will continue to negotiate better rates with our health care providers
and invest in the wellness of our employees to ensure continued
efficiencies and savings in this areaAgain, t Instead, thanks to the
tentative agreement with our largest union, the county will save
$300,000 per month.

Our next step should be to work with the other leaders in the
Milwaukee 7 project coalition to get local governments from the region
CArcher_Email3010891

into the state health care plan or into a regional plan that can drive
down costs even further.
The third area of fiscal progress is with our tax burden. In September,
I introduced my fifth straight budget with no increase in the property
tax levy. If each all of my budgets were approved, the tax levy would
be $22.3 million less in 2007 than it is today.
We have changed the debate over taxes! Still, we did changed the
debate over taxes. While I have proposed no tax increase budgets,
the Board has passed budgets with tax increases averaging less than
2% per year just 1.97% over the last five years compared to an
average tax increase of more than 4% per year____% over the
previous five years. The debate over property taxes has changed!
We are making progress. want no increase and the board has added
some increasesmore, the average increase over the past five budgets
is just X1.97%. Later this year, I will propose my sixth budget with no
levy increase. When it comes to property taxes, we have stopped the
bleeding.
One area of concern that I will continue to monitor is efforts to push
for a new sales tax increase to fund various programs. In 1991, the
county enacted a .5% sales tax with the promise of property tax relief.
From 1992 to 2002, the tax levy went up 5255%. We do not need
another tax increase. Hear me today, I will oppose any efforts to
raise the sales tax, period.

In 2008, I will propose my sixth budget with no levy increase. I will
also oppose efforts to raise the sales tax, period.
Making tough choices to balance our budget hasn’t stopped us from
providing important services to the public. Our second area of
progress is with social programs.
The renewed attention on serving people with mental illness brought
the city and the county together – along with many community groups
– to address housing options for people with mental illness. Just last
CArcher_Email3010892

month, we approved plans for XXX 48 new housing units that were
recommended by the panel the Mayor and I appointed last year.
This is a good start, but we must do more. Today, I propose an
ambitious plan to construct housing for senior citizens and people with
disabilities – as well as those suffering from mental illness – at nine
different sites owned by the county. At two of the sites, we hope to
build new senior centers and all of the construction would be done by
the private sector with the county providing access to the land.
Furthermore, I am happy with the progress we made with the
members of the County Boardare making to acquire the former St.
Michael’s Hospital property. The county mental health complex could
should move into a new structure so that it can become that would
help it become a world-class facility that better meets the needs of
those served. It would also protect the neighborhood from the blight
of a vacant building once they move out.
Once we negotiate an agreement for the building, we need to put out
bids for the sale of the property currently holding the mental health
complex. A reasonable sale price should cover the costs of acquiring
St. Mike’s, transforming it into a world class mental health complex
and having some left over to create a fund to protect mental health
services for years to come. It is clear to me that we must sellale this
land. land – not only to cover the costs of a move, but to insure that
we have the resources needed to care for those in need. Today, I am
calling on the County Board to act on this proposal!
A report by the XXX task force in XXXX pointed to the need for a new
structure for the mental health complex. This is not a new problem,
but it does demand immediate attentiona new approach. Maybe this
paragraph sould be moved before the one above. We also have not mentioned operational
efficiencies related to the new site….

In addition to improving services for the mentally ill, we have made
great progress with FamilyCare. Just two years ago, the state
changed the terms of the program with the county and that created a
deficit. Now, the program has a surplus, which not only allows
provides repayment to the county, it also allows the program to serve
CArcher_Email3010893

more older adults. The number of people served by the county
through FamilyCare in 2006 went up XXXwent up from 6,887 in 2005
to 7,181 in 2006...
The next phase for us is to craft a way for people with disabilities who
are under 60 to get service through FamilyCare. Having gone
through this process before, we know the pitfalls and we don’t want to
get intowant to avoid financial troubles with the state.
Young or old, an effective EMS system is important to all of us. Last
year, we maintained funding for the paramedic program. Then, we
reached a two-year agreement with all of the municipal governments
in the county. on the system. This is a great example of regional
cooperation and I want to thank the Mayors and Village Presidents
who are here today.
We also have a unique partnership with the hospitals in the county.
The GAMP program is a national model. Because of state and
federal changes, we need to move one step ahead and our health
care task force will finalize a plan yet this year.e is meeting to prepare
those changes.
In 2006, we started taking child support related calls for Racine
County. It saved them money and it earned us revenue: a win all the
way around. Now, we hope to expand that concept to surrounding
counties.
The architect of that plan was our director John Hayes. Late last
year, John lost his battle with cancer. At his funeral, it was clear that
John’s work was more than just a job, it was his passion. To honor
his legacy, I am announcing today that the offices that holds the staff
of Child Support Enforcement will be forever named the John P.
Hayes Center.
John’s wife Eileen is with us here today – along with XXXX. On
behalf of the county, I want to again thank them you for the support
they you gave to John throughout the years as he worked so hard for
to support families in this county.
CArcher_Email3010894

John Hayes was also a mentor. One of the people he trained well
rose waswas his deputy. Together, they transformed the department.
Today, I also want to announce that I will submitnominate the name of
Lisa Jo Marks to head the Department of Child Support Enforcement.
These are just a few of the ways we care for people in Milwaukee
County.

So how do we balance our fiscal needs with our social needs? Much
credit goes to our employees for finding new ways to provide more
with less. In particular, many of our areaswe are making huge
improvements through e-government.
The county is now accepting tracking bids online. We are taking
registrations in parks via the Internet. The Interactive Voice
Response System will field benefits calls in less than 15 minutes and
will be available 24 hours a day. Work orders (are now?) will be
tracked with barcodes. And zoo tickets (are now?)will be available
on the website. These are just a few of the advantages examples of
e-government.
In addition, the size of our workforce is 20% less than five years ago.
Finding better ways to do more with less is the key to our success.

Our third progress report is economic and that comes not just from
economic development projects, but also from using all of our assets
to improve the quality of life in our county – and in turn the business
climate.
One our greatest assets is the airport. In 2006, cared for more than 7
million passengers came throughat General Mitchell International
Airport. Just three years ago, we broke the record then with 6 million.
Since the airport is our front door to the business traveler, keeping
ahead of the competition is important. In addition to the expanded
parking garage, we remodeled each of our concourses and opened
CArcher_Email3010895

up new levels for Midwest and Skyway. We also expanded security
gates and remodeled the center mall.
In 2007, I propose a project to get the baggage screening out from in
front of the ticket stands. In addition, we will pursue a long-term plan
to add a third runway and extend the two current runways to provide
for safe and efficient operations.
While these improvements are important to all of the airlines at the
airport, the largest beneficiary from the changes is Midwest Airlines.
They are the our largest tenant at the airport and one of the largest
employers in the county. Most importantly, they are one of our key
brands in the region – like Harley and Miller. We want them to stay
and grow and we are doing all that we can to help them. (What are
we doing to help them?)
If Air Tran wants more gates to attract customers from Chicago, we
will offer more gates, but not at the expense of Midwest. Between our
current remodeling and our long-term goals, there can be room for
both at Mitchell.
Speaking of key brands, GE Healthcare is our anchor at the
Milwaukee County Research Park. And we are growing there too.
Last month, wWe just broke ground for a new corporate headquarters
and work is already started on a new Crowne Plaza Hotel.
We are looking to announcewill move forward on the development of
the northeast quadrant of the county grounds by this summer. And
with the move of the mental health complex to the St. Michael’s site, I
propose that the county put bids out for the land across the street.
That could be a major new addition to the regional medical center.
We are also working with the University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee to
find a home for their expanding studies in engineering and sciences.
Access to the talent on the county grounds is key to their future
growth in the region.
Another area of potential growth is in our transit system. Currently, I
am working with the Mayor of Milwaukee to designate a portion of the
CArcher_Email3010896

$91.5 million of federal funds for a new Bus Rapid Transit pilot
project.
The concept would begin with two highly traveled corridors – 27th
Street and Fond du Lac Avenue and would provide a designated lane
for bus travel. The new service would provide rapid service for
passengers and this is a way for us to grow the system.
I also draw attention to a legislative initiative by Rep. Jeff Stone to
move the revenue currently collected on the sales of automobiles
from the general fund to the transportation fund. These revenues can
then be used to support transit systems all across the state. I urge
the Governor and Legislature to support this proposal.
New developments are also happening in the parks system. Work will
begin on the aquatic center in Lincoln Park this year and the new
season pass for our pools will start this summer. We also hope to
have Bradford and McKinley beaches open through the Adopt-ABeach program.
This year, Wwe added two links to the Oak Leaf Trail this year. Our
staff has now We upgraded? replaced more than 100 outdated
playgrounds and . Nearly 400,000 rounds of golfd took place (some
3,000 of them in December) on our courses took place. And our
friends groups grew from 10 to 42.
In 2007, we will kickoff the 100th anniversary of the parks system with
a major celebration. A 100 concerts and a 100 tree plantings are just
a sample of the excitement planned for this seasonyear.
Finally, the reason that you are all here is to highlight the excitement
amazing things happening at our zoo. Thanks to our partnership with
the Zoological Society of Milwaukee County, we added several new
landmarks this year. The Florence Mila Borchert Big Cat Country and
Miller Brewing Company Giraffe Experience were two such exhibits in
2006.

CArcher_Email3010897

By the fall, we break ground for the new US Bank Gathering Place as
a new grand entrance to the zoo. At the same time, we will begin
work on a new home for the return of the flamingos.
Early this yearWithin the next month, we will have bids out for a new
water park and hotel at the northwestnorthwest corner of the Zoo
property. We have one of the best zoos in the country and these
improvements make it even better and it could not happen without a
great partnership with the community.
One of the super events we hold at the zoo each year is called
Operation Freedom. Last year, some over 17,000 military personnel,
their families and veterans visited the zoo for free – thanks to the
generosity of many local businesses. This year, the Military Order of
the Purple Heart will help us organize the event and we will once
again host it at the zoo on Independence Day weekend.
This is an amazing year for our Armed Forces and veterans from
Milwaukee County. Since last January, our County Veterans Service
Office Director Domingo Leguizamon was based in Baghdad with the
XXX of the United States Army. In a few weeks, he will return home,
but many more from the county are still deployed.
To honor these special people men and women and their families –
as well as the veterans who went before them – I declare 2007 to be
Armed Forces and Veterans Year.
In 2007, we will host the commissioning of the USS Freedom. In July,
we host the U.S. Wheelchair Games. And throughout the year – on
Memorial Day, Armed Forces Day/Week, Patriots Day, Veterans Day,
Pearl Harbor Day, and all other times – we will honor these heroes
and their families.
And we honor them by the way we protect the historic buildings and
gravesites on the grounds of the VA. State Secretary of Veterans
Affairs John Scocos and I have appointed a panel to recommend the
appropriate use of those grounds and the method of achieving those
goals.
CArcher_Email3010898

Overall, this is a year full of activities to celebrate the members of the
Armed Forces and our Veterans. That is why we declare a full year in
their honor.
As I said, 2006 was a year full of progress. We made progress
tackling our financial challenges. We made progress finding new and
better ways to provide key services. And we made progress building
a climate for more economic growth in our county and region. In
2007, we must build on that progress while remembering to thank
those who give us the platform of freedom upon which we build that
progress.
Today, the state of our county is much better than it was a year ago. I
am pleased with our progress. There is hope. However, tThere is
also much work yet to be done. and I am prepared to work with each
of you to get positive things done for Milwaukee County in 2007.
Let’s get to work. This implies that we have not already been working.
Perhaps something like – “Let’s continue to work together to move ahead”

I know I told you that we were not going to try and recreate the reality tour
and I still stand by that. I am however perplexed about the health care slide
and was wondering if you could call Steve. Seeymeyer seems to think he built
into the estimate that we would have about 200 retiree's each year that are
then being replaced with new employees (hence we are on the hook for double
health care costs for the 200 the retiree's and the new employees). Seems
reasonable. If this is the case perhaps it is our estimate that needs to be
updated. ? Manske, any comment on this?

There was a fund transfer that went through in December to provide dollars in
2006 to help take care of various safety violations at BHD. An attempt was made
to encumber documents against the new funds that came from the fund transfer,
but the department was unsuccessful in 2006.
The documents have been encumbered in 2007.
I am going to make an entry to encumber these documents back against 2006 since
the funding authority was given in 2006. This is a one time transaction, for
this department because of the safety issues. By making this transaction, we
will use 2006 budget dollars for these encumbrances, and carryover these
dollars to 2007. BHD will be able to use 2006 funds that are available, instead
of 2007 dollars that are probably earmarked for other purposes.

I have summarized the spreadsheet we spoke about last Friday. It affects six
accounting lines. We really appreciate your being able to encumber these
transactions as 2006.

Any additional costs we incur as a result of the corrective action plan will

Ms. Archer:
Good Morning. I'm a DAS-Fiscal and Management Analyst assigned to DHHS and I
wanted to let you know that I will be submitting an FMLA request to you for
your approval. I'm about 8 months pregnant and due in early March. I tried
calling you yesterday but you were in a meeting. However, I at least wanted to
email you to let you know my request will be coming to you shortly. My request
for FMLA would be effective starting approximately March 12 until approximately
the first week in June.
I have talked to Rob about the handling of my assignments during my leave. It's
my understanding that Chuck Brotz, another DHHS-Fiscal and Management Analyst,
will be covering for me during my absence. I will be meeting with Chuck and the
Economic Support Division Director to review my responsibilities today.
Congratulations on your confirmation! I look forward to the opportunity to meet
you sometime soon. Please let me know if you have any questions.

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
Behavioral Health Division Administration

INTER-OFFICE COMMUNICATION

DATE:

February 5, 2007

TO:

Supervisor Lee Holloway, Chairman, Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors

FROM:

James M. Hill, Administrator, Behavioral Health Division

RE:

REPORT FROM THE ADMINISTRATOR, BEHAVIORAL HEALTH DIVISION, REQUESTING AUTHORIZATION TO CREATE ONE (1.0)
CLINICAL SAFETY/RISK MANAGEMENT NURSE (PAY RANGE 27N)
AND ONE (1.0) DIRECTOR OF QUALITY ASSURANCE AND RISK
MANAGEMENT (PAY RANGE 28MN)

Policy Issue
County Board approval is required to create positions in the County Civil Service system.
Background
In late 2006, hospital licensing surveyors from the state Department of Health and Family Services conducted an extensive review of the Behavioral Health Division’s Acute Inpatient Hospital operation. The review resulted in the issuance of a number of citations relating primarily to
inadequate medical record documentation, the need to improve communication and sharing of
information between and among clinical disciplines, and the comprehensiveness of psychiatric
and physical patient assessments. All of these citations have underscored the critical need for a
strong and adequately staffed quality assurance/quality improvement (QA/QI) program at BHD.
QA/QI programs are an essential function of any entity that provides direct care to vulnerable
patients and residents. Hospitals and nursing homes operate in high-risk environments where
continuous monitoring of the quality and appropriateness of care is necessary to ensure appropriate patient outcomes and improve the overall quality of care to the benefit of patients’ and residents’ quality of life.
BHD currently has one position assigned exclusively to QA/QI activities in its inpatient and
long-term care facilities. As part of our corrective action plan responding to the citations, we
have assured regulators that we are taking steps to enhance our QA/QI function. To this end,
authorization is requested to create the following positions:
 1.0 Director of Quality Assurance and Risk Management (Pay Range 28MN presumed),
reporting jointly to the Medical Director and the Director of Nursing. The position would
be responsible for overseeing and directing all functions of QA and Risk Management.
The annual cost of the position, including fringe benefits and FICA, is $113,155.

CArcher_Email3010912

County Board Chairman Lee Holloway
February 5, 2007

Page 2

 1.0 additional FTE position of Clinical Safety/Risk Management Nurse, pay range 27N,
under the direction and supervision of the Director of Quality Assurance and Risk Management. This position (and the other existing position of CS/RM) will assist the Director in carrying out all of the critical ongoing functions of the office of Quality Assurance
and Risk Management. The cost of the position, including fringe benefits and FICA, is
$105,652.
Recommendation
It is recommended that the Department of Administrative Services, the County Board and the
County Executive approve creation of the position of Director of Quality Assurance and Risk
Management and one additional position of Clinical Safety/Risk Management Nurse in BHD. It
is further recommended that the Division of Human Resources and the County Board approve
the classification of these positions as recommended above.
Fiscal Effect
The two positions created by this action will add $218,807 to BHD’s annual operating budget.
The amount required for 2007 will be less than that amount, as the positions will not be filled
until several months into the year. No additional funds are being requested at this time. BHD
will attempt to identify funding for the positions in 2007 from internal vacancies elsewhere in the
Division. A fiscal note form is attached.

Good Morning John and Linda,
I'm just following up with a reminder that we would like to receive your

agenda for the February 22 meeting.
Each of you can either e-mail me a PDF document or give me a call at 278-4229
and I will send someone to pick up a hard copy. Remember, we are seeking a
response from the Clerk of Circuit Coiurt for recommendation #13 only, with DAS
responding to recommendations #1--#12, #14 and #15.
Please let me know immediately if there are any problems with this timetable.
Thanks,

Cindy and Linda
I will be talking to Jerry Heer today about a possible delay in the close of
the books for 2006. Central Accounting is doing a good job in their entries,
but I am behind in transitioning my work to Mary Mathers. My year end close
work includes the accrual for DC-48 wages, sick and vacation accruals, airport
arbitrage and fixed assets. The delay may be a possible one to two weeks.
I need to discuss this with Jerry Heer, because he holds the contract with
Virchow Krause.

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
Behavioral Health Division Administration

INTER-OFFICE COMMUNICATION

DATE:

February 6, 2007

TO:

Supervisor Lee Holloway, Chairman, Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors

FROM:

James M. Hill, Administrator, Behavioral Health Division

RE:

REPORT FROM THE ADMINISTRATOR, BEHAVIORAL HEALTH DIVISION, REQUESTING AUTHORIZATION TO CREATE ONE (1.0)
CLINICAL SAFETY/RISK MANAGEMENT NURSE (PAY RANGE 27N)
AND ONE (1.0) DIRECTOR OF QUALITY ASSURANCE AND RISK
MANAGEMENT (PAY RANGE 28MN)

Policy Issue
County Board approval is required to create positions in the County Civil Service system.
Background
In late 2006, hospital licensing surveyors from the state Department of Health and Family Services conducted an extensive review of the Behavioral Health Division’s Acute Inpatient Hospital operation. The review resulted in the issuance of a number of citations relating primarily to
inadequate medical record documentation, the need to improve communication and sharing of
information between and among clinical disciplines, and the comprehensiveness of psychiatric
and physical patient assessments. All of these citations have underscored the critical need for a
strong and adequately staffed quality assurance/quality improvement (QA/QI) program at BHD.
QA/QI programs are an essential function of any entity that provides direct care to vulnerable
patients and residents. Hospitals and nursing homes operate in high-risk environments where
continuous monitoring of the quality and appropriateness of care is necessary to ensure appropriate patient outcomes and improve the overall quality of care to the benefit of patients’ and residents’ quality of life.
BHD currently has one position assigned exclusively to QA/QI activities in its inpatient and
long-term care facilities. As part of our corrective action plan responding to the citations, we
have assured regulators that we are taking steps to enhance our QA/QI function. To this end,
authorization is requested to create the following positions:
 1.0 Director of Quality Assurance and Risk Management (Pay Range 28MN presumed),
reporting jointly to the Medical Director and the Director of Nursing. The position would
be responsible for overseeing and directing all functions of QA and Risk Management.
The annual cost of the position, including fringe benefits and FICA, is $113,155.

CArcher_Email3010933

County Board Chairman Lee Holloway
February 6, 2007

Page 2

 1.0 additional FTE position of Clinical Safety/Risk Management Nurse, pay range 27N,
under the direction and supervision of the Director of Quality Assurance and Risk Management. This position (and the other existing position of CS/RM) will assist the Director in carrying out all of the critical ongoing functions of the office of Quality Assurance
and Risk Management. The cost of the position, including fringe benefits and FICA, is
$105,652.
Recommendation
It is recommended that the Department of Administrative Services, the County Board and the
County Executive approve creation of the position of Director of Quality Assurance and Risk
Management and one additional position of Clinical Safety/Risk Management Nurse in BHD. It
is further recommended that the Division of Human Resources and the County Board approve
the classification of these positions as recommended above.
Fiscal Effect
The two positions created by this action will add $218,807 to BHD’s annual operating budget.
The amount required for 2007 will be less than that amount, as the positions will not be filled
until several months into the year. No additional funds are being requested at this time. BHD
will attempt to identify funding for the positions in 2007 from internal vacancies elsewhere in the
Division.
It should also be noted that BHD is recruiting to fill two vacant medical positions that it had previously intended to keep unfilled for budgetary purposes, and that it is incurring increased security costs, in order to fulfill other elements of the corrective action plan that has been approved by
the State. It is too early in the year to determine whether these actions – combined with the creation of the positions requested above – can be absorbed in BHD’s 2007 Budget without the need
for additional appropriations or corrective actions. This situation will be closely monitored during the course of the year, and it is possible that BHD may request a fund transfer from the Appropriation for Contingencies if a deficit situation is anticipated.

Linda,
THis is what we worked with Rob on this morning. The plan is to do this for
this Board cycle. Please note the last paragraph in the fiscal note that I
suggested they add. While the plan is to "absorb" this, it appears unlikely
they will actually be able to absorb it given a number of other factors.
However, it is too early in the fiscal year to know for sure. This adds about
$800,000 to the FY08 budget. Just FYI

Management and one additional position of Clinical Safety/Risk Management Nurse in BHD. It
is further recommended that the Division of Human Resources and the County Board approve
the classification of these positions as recommended above.
Fiscal Effect
The two positions created by this action will add $218,807 to BHD’s annual operating budget.
The amount required for 2007 will be less than that amount, as the positions will not be filled
until several months into the year. No additional funds are being requested at this time. BHD
will attempt to identify funding for the positions in 2007 from internal vacancies elsewhere in the
Division.
It should also be noted that BHD is recruiting to fill two vacant medical positions that it had previously intended to keep unfilled for budgetary purposes, and that it is incurring increased security costs, in order to fulfill other elements of the corrective action plan that has been approved by
the State. It is too early in the year to determine whether these actions – combined with the creation of the positions requested above – can be absorbed in BHD’s 2007 Budget without the need
for additional appropriations or corrective actions. This situation will be closely monitored during the course of the year, and it is possible that BHD may request a fund transfer from the Appropriation for Contingencies if a deficit situation is anticipated.

What do you think about a law like this?
QEO for County Government
Create a qualified economic offer (QEO) for county employees. The QEO would be
the total amount for salary and fringe benefits multiplied by the increase in
the Consumer Price Index (CPI). If a county government makes a QEO to its
employees, the employer may avoid arbitration.

To All:
Attached is the final revision of the Billing & Collection draft audit report.
This draft report reflects changes resulting from the exit conference with the
Department of Administrative Services on January 22, 2007. As a result of
comments from departments reviewed during the audit, as well as from DAS, we
have added language that better articulates our vision for a 'hybrid'
centralization of collection efforts (please see pages3--4 and 42--45 of the
draft report).
There are 15 audit recommendations in the report; 14 are addressed to DAS
(either directly, or as coordinator for a recommended workgroup) and 1 is
addressed to the Clerk of Circuit Court. Therefore, we are requesting written
responses from the Director of Administrative Services and from the Clerk of
Circuit Court.
Please direct any input you wish to have incorporated into the written
response, to be included in the final audit report, to Linda Seemeyer. To
accommodate County Board deadlines, we are requesting written responses from
the Director of Administrative Services and the Clerk of Circuit Court by the
end of business on Monday, February 5, 2007.
Thank you all for your cooperation throughout the audit.

There seems to be a fair amount of confusionon on this issue. It is my
understanding from discussions with Linda S that Barb should be the point
person on this. Kat is willing to help, but as Linda's assistant Barb has
agreed to coordinate. Please work directly with Barb and Barb can let Kat know
what assistance she can provide. Thanks.

Just so you know becuase I could not say it. The girls were beginning to
"tustle" over this and Barb's feelings were hurt because she is Linda's
assistant and she felt it was her place to be involved. You could feel the
tension in the air and when it finally reached my office last night, I felt we
needed to nip it in bud. :)   Plus LInda had mentioned it to me that Barb felt
left out and was hurt particularily over Kat's role.

If you want to give Barb a part, she had the idea of having a coffee and cake
kind of thing during the day for folks to stop in since not all will be up for
an evening thing. Maybe you give that part to her and then you and Villa and
do the big blow out party. I think she (Barb) might need a role in this. Just
an idea.

Kat is ok stepping out it. She was only tyring to help but it was not sitting
well with Barb.

Milwaukee County Treasurer
901 N. 9th St. Rm. 102
Milwaukee, WI 53233

DATE:

January 11, 2007

TO:

Doug Jenkins , Deputy Director of Audits

FROM:

Daniel J. Diliberti, Milwaukee County Treasurer

SUBJECT: Audit Report on Billing and Collection Practices

In reviewing the preliminary "Audit Report on Billing and Collection Practices", I would like to
make several comments in response to the recommendations included in the report.
First, I would like to commend the Audit Department for the thoroughness of the report in your
coverage of a wide range of departments' and collections activities. As usual your department
strives to be comprehensive and bring in new ideas from both inside and outside of the county.
Several comments in the report refer to or may be regarded as pertaining to the Treasurer's
Office delinquent tax collections. In order to clarify our response to those statements, I wish to
submit the following comments:
1.

As you know, by state statute, the County Treasurer is the official collections agency for the
18 suburban municipalities in the county for delinquent property taxes. On July 31st of each
year, all the municipalities review the uncollected taxes, deem them delinquent and send us a
report. We then reimburse them for all uncollected taxes and are the state-designated official
collector for all the delinquent taxes from the 18 municipalities in the county (not the City of
Milwaukee)
So the general comment on "when these accounts become delinquent " most often does not
apply to us since these accounts are already cited as delinquent when we receive them here.
We collect on 100% of them, except in the rare cases when they pertain to contaminated
property.

2.

Our department has no losses or write-offs on delinquent billings except when a property is
deemed contaminated before foreclosure.
The delinquent taxes are legally registered and carried on the property, like a lien, regardless of
the owner. All are eventually collected.

3.

There are no uncollectibles.
Everything is ultimately collected either through payments or through foreclosures.

4. The collectibles are not "aged" or time dated. All delinquent property taxes are
collectable, if not by collection efforts then eventually by foreclosure.
CArcher_Email3011025

2
Delinquencies are eligible for foreclosure two years after certification as delinquent (three
calendar years of actual taxes).
By state statute, every delinquent tax account is charged 18% per year in interest and penalties similar to penalties assessed for nonpayment of taxes by the state and federal government.
However, in our case we hold the collateral and the unpaid taxes are carried on the property like a lien - regardless of whether the property title the transferred to a new owner.
5. Outsourcing collectables from our department only results in a loss in revenue, since all
delinquent taxes are collected and a delay only results in an
18% increase in the collectable amount. We currently operate a cost-effective collections
process which results in all revenues going to the county.
6. The Treasurer (not a centralized collections group) is required to operate and oversee the
collection process for several reasons:
A. It is required by State Statutes.
B. The collections process is unique to delinquent tax collection and is outlined in the
state statutes. Delinquent property tax collections must follow a
proscribed procedure outlined in the state statues with significantly different
requirements (notices/publication/record keeping) than any other kind of county bill
collection process
C. The delinquent property tax collection process requires ongoing communication and
coordination of records with the suburban municipalities.
Questions arise and problems occur that require an ongoing familiarity and expertise in
the area of property tax collection records held in this office (send and receive notices,
reconcile billings, etc.) in order to do so.
D. The Treasurer is the official keeper of these records and is required to maintain these
records in this office in order to:
Comply with state statutes.
Deal with the complications and irregularities in billing and record keeping between
property holders, municipalities and mortgage companies.
Maintain in-house expertise that would have to be otherwise duplicated to deal with
institutional records
Coordinate with in-house records of bankruptcy proceedings, discrepancies in
billings, foreclosures and payment plans.
Send and record unique required billings, settlement certificates, notices to owners,
postings, certified letters and published notices that are required by state law.
E. Coordinate payments to the bank account lock boxes, payments sent directly to this
office, walk-in payments, credit card and e-check payments, banks' remittances, local,
state and national mortgage companies' payments, bankruptcy payments, and numerous
overpayments or mistaken payments inadvertently sent to this office.
F. Foreclosure processes required by Treasurer's Office as listed in the State Statutes.
7. Regarding the "Accepted Precepts for Successful Billing and Debt Collection (Page 11)
we already fulfill these requirements for:
A. Timeliness
B. Written Policies and procedures
C. Complete and accurate customer information (also to be provided via our web site
beginning in February)
CArcher_Email3011026

3
D. Convenient payment methods:
We already have payment plans, are instituting(next month) telephone and
on-line credit card payments and electronic check (e-check) payments.
E. Receivables must be managed.
We currently have a modern and up-to-date delinquent tax collections software
that is unique to delinquent property tax collections processes and that provides
complete and up-to-date billings and collection data
F. Centralized collection methods - This would not be applicable to our collections
efforts since our delinquent taxes change monthly with the imposition of interest and
penalty and the unique state laws regarding the application of payment amounts to
the different categories of delinquent fees.
G. Know when to outsource. Our office has reviewed this option and concluded that
since delinquent property taxes continue to accrue a monthly 1.5% interest (18%/year)
and there are no uncollectibles, outsourcing would entail extra costs and provide no
financial benefits to the county.
H. Have specific policies concerning management of bad debt. - There is no bad debt
and there are no uncollectibles.
All delinquent taxes are carried as a lien on the property and all late payments are
assessed an 18% annual fine.
8. Tax Intercept Program (TIP). This program is designed for collecting bills in fixed
amount that were otherwise uncollectible.
The Treasurer's Office will start a pilot (TIP) program this year for collecting taxes on
contaminated property where ownership can be traced to a private owner and for old unpaid
property taxes in small amounts that may not warrant the expense of foreclosure.
Although foreclosure expenses are reimbursable, collecting it for small amounts can, in
certain instances, be counter productive.
In addition, the TIP program was not designed with property tax collection in mind.
Because delinquent property taxes continue to accumulate interest and penalty charges of
1.5% per month, each of the tax intercept accounts needs continual updating. Each amount
must be rescinded and reregistered every month to accommodate this changing total
amount due.
9. The advantages for centralized collections listed on page 27 actually are reversed in the
case of the Treasurer's Office.
There are many unique statutory requirements regarding delinquent property tax collection,
including; the unique nature of the lien-like claim for collections; the special property tax
related bankruptcy exemptions; the monthly interest and penalty assessments; the
foreclosure requirements; the parallel tracking of on-line, in-person, lockbox, credit card
and e-checks, and U.S. mail delivery of payments; the tracking of payment plans; and the
specialized computer systems used in the tracking as well as payment allocations to prior
years taxes and special assessments. Therefore ; economies of scale would not be realized
in the centralizing of these account collections with other billings functions. Such a
centralization would actually result in duplication with our department's carrying out of
collection policies outlined in the State Statutes, and would likely result in poor quality
communication with the municipalities being served; as well as decreased efficiencies.
10. In the efficiency example cited by the report (page 29), Waukesha County's centralized

CArcher_Email3011027

4
collections unit, does not include the collection of property taxes or of delinquent property
taxes for Waukesha County Treasurer's Office. In discussing the situation with the Waukesha
County Treasurer, She
cited the same above reasons for separating delinquent property
taxes from other receivables in a centralized collections process.
11. The report cites (page 39) a report by the National Debt Collection Program by a
consultant procured by NACo and the IMCA: "Counties and cites are experts at collecting
property taxes....Rarely is their a need for government to outsource this type e of collection.
Nevertheless, when it comes to other types of fees or fines owed to local governments,
collection can be much more difficult...."
The Treasurer's Office concurs with this report, that the expertise and efficiency of
delinquent property tax collections in this office has already developed an effective collections
system and the centralization of this effort would be counterproductive.
12. Credit card payment. The Audit Department may wish to monitor the Treasurer's Office's
use of a contracted agency to collect credit card payments and charge back the fee to users.
The Treasurer's Department is utilizing a the Official Payments Corporation (OPC) to perform
this service. OPC won the contract after a bidding procedure with the Wisconsin Treasurer's
Association and is utilized by approximately 45 counties around the state to credit card and echeck payments. The Audit Department may wish to evaluate this process for county-wide
application.
Our department would, for the most part, concur with recommendation #1 on page 41 that calls
for the establishment of a work group of department staff responsible for billing and collection
functions. We especially concur with the goal of establishing a strategic plan for coordinating many
aspects of the county's myriad billing and collections activities as well as serving as a technical
resource to department staff engaged in billing and collection activities. As the audit report goes on to
note, some departments, such as the Treasurer, with unique collection services, would have minimal
interaction with a centralized collections unit but all departments may benefit by shared data, such as
social security numbers, drivers license numbers, emergency contact information, and addresses used
to locate delinquent account holders.
Please advise me if, in place of these general comments, you would prefer specific editing
recommendations.
Thank you for sharing the preliminary, draft copy for review and comment.

Milwaukee County Treasurer

This may be understood by all, but please keep in mind that the only some of
the improvements listed in the attached cost estimate were approved. Therefore,
this may be an explanation as to why the scope of work does not "matchup".
Below is the language that will appear in the 2007 Adopted Capital Improvements
Budget.
WP07014 ?Martin Luther King Center Auditorium Improvements - ($92,000)
An appropriation of $92,000 is budgeted for improvements to the auditorium at
the Martin Luther King Community Center. The improvements consist of the
installation of an ADA stage ramp and new stage floor, lighting improvements,
sound system improvements, and the replacement of the projection screen.

Parks staff, with assistance from DPW, submitted a list of projects for the
2007 Parks Infrastructure project. The MLK project was submitted as a separate
amendment to the budget. Parks and County Board staff were involved with the
project scope. I know this because I spoke directly with staff. There maybe a
little selective memory going on to expand the scope of the project now that it
has been adopted or the people that I worked with are not involved. It is not
uncommon for departments to expand the project scope after budget adoption.
The MLK project is financed with general obligation bonds, which is why only
certain items were included. This was explained to Parks and County Board staff
prior to the approval of the budget amendment.

this may be an explanation as to why the scope of work does not "matchup".
Below is the language that will appear in the 2007 Adopted Capital Improvements
Budget.
WP07014 ?Martin Luther King Center Auditorium Improvements - ($92,000)
An appropriation of $92,000 is budgeted for improvements to the auditorium at
the Martin Luther King Community Center. The improvements consist of the
installation of an ADA stage ramp and new stage floor, lighting improvements,
sound system improvements, and the replacement of the projection screen.

Just so you know becuase I could not say it. The girls were beginning to
"tustle" over this and Barb's feelings were hurt because she is Linda's
assistant and she felt it was her place to be involved. You could feel the
tension in the air and when it finally reached my office last night, I felt we
needed to nip it in bud. :) Plus LInda had mentioned it to me that Barb felt
left out and was hurt particularily over Kat's role.
If you want to give Barb a part, she had the idea of having a coffee and cake
kind of thing during the day for folks to stop in since not all will be up for
an evening thing. Maybe you give that part to her and then you and Villa and do
the big blow out party. I think she (Barb) might need a role in this. Just an
idea.
Kat is ok stepping out it. She was only tyring to help but it was not sitting
well with Barb.

        Federal Earmarks





Cindy,
Thanks for the work you and all the departments did on the Federal earmark
requests that were forwarded to Congresswoman Moore. Now, we have a nearly
identical repeat (as we did last time) with Senator Kohl. If you could do as
you did before and ask departments to re-sumbit the same earmark requests that
went to the Congresswoman to the Senator, on the attached form (which is
different from the Congresswoman's form), it would be appreciated. Since the
earmark requests are essentially already done, I am assuming this should not
take long at all.   This should basically amount to a cut and paste for those
who put the request together.   It would be good to get the information
finalized and forwarded to Roy de la Rosa by next Wednesday, Feb. 14.

February 7, 2007
To All Interested Parties:
When the President sends his budget to Congress, the fiscal year 2008 appropriations
season begins. Before that process gets underway I want to provide: 1) a status report on the
current fiscal year, and 2) additional guidance for submitting FY08 appropriation
recommendations.
First, a status report. As you know, the 109th Congress adjourned last year without
completing work on many important appropriations measures for fiscal year 2007. I was very
disappointed by this lack of progress. Exacerbating the challenge was a decision by leaders of
the 109th Congress to shift certain funds to Defense leaving less for domestic priorities.
These developments, combined with growing public concern over earmark procedures,
prompted the new leadership of the 110th Congress to choose a different course. It involves
passage of a year-long, earmark-free continuing resolution to fund basic government services for
the remainder of the current fiscal year. That measure is being developed right now with the
expectation that it will be presented to the President for his signature by February 15th.
In the meantime, Congress has been considering earmark reform legislation to help
restore public confidence in the Congressional appropriations process. While the final details
have yet to be resolved, I expect this process to yield greater transparency and scrutiny of
earmarks. My office has always had a policy of examining and publicly identifying every project
for which we secure funding and I remain confident that Wisconsinites will continue to submit
quality projects.
To provide additional guidance for fiscal year 2008, my staff has prepared the attached
background. As a member of the Appropriations Committee I have the opportunity to influence
spending levels and promote projects of interest to Wisconsin. In some cases there is directed
federal funding available for projects in specific communities. In other cases, there are larger
accounts that provide funds to states or federal grant programs.
In past years I have heard from many local leaders about important projects in our state.
The following information should guide you in recognizing those projects which are most likely
to receive funding from the Appropriations Committee. Please keep in mind the competitive
nature of this process. In a tight fiscal environment, there are no guarantees that any specific
project will be funded. However, I remain committed to making the case for directing scarce
dollars to vital projects in Wisconsin.

Submission Directions:
 Electronic submissions are preferred. Please feel free to email Phil Karsting
([email protected]) and Rebecca Young
([email protected]). My staff will confirm receipt of electronic requests;
additional hard copy submissions are not necessary.
 Due to delays in the processing of Senate mail in Washington, correspondence should be
faxed to Phil Karsting in my Washington office at 202-224-9787 or sent to Rebecca
Young in my Milwaukee office: 310 West Wisconsin Avenue, Suite 950 Milwaukee,
WI 53203 or 414-297-4455/fax. Once again, my staff will confirm receipt of your
project. Therefore, one method of delivery is sufficient.
Deadline:
 To guarantee consideration for fiscal year 2008 funding, I must have your requests by
March 9, 2007. If you cannot meet this deadline, please contact Rebecca Young
directly.
In addition, I am often aware of other sources of federal funding that may be available to
you, and I welcome the opportunity to direct you to these resources. If you have questions about
this material or alternate sources of funding, please do not hesitate to contact me or Rebecca
Young at (800) 247-5645 or [email protected].
I look forward to working with you and your organization. Best wishes.
Sincerely,

Herb Kohl
U.S. Senator

Appropriations Committee General Funding Guidelines

Agriculture: As Chairman of the Agriculture Appropriations Subcommittee, I receive requests
for Wisconsin-specific projects as well as initiatives that are nationwide in scope. The annual
Agriculture appropriations bill funds the activities of the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the
Food and Drug Administration. Agencies involved vary from Rural Development to the Natural
Resources Conservation Service to the Cooperative Extension Service. Construction funds are
not generally allowed except for federal facilities. All other projects and initiatives will be
reviewed on a case by case basis.
Economic Development Initiatives: I receive many requests for economic development
initiatives (EDI), funded through the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) spending bill. I
have been pleased to support many important Wisconsin EDI’s and want you to be aware of the
Senate Appropriations Subcommittee criteria for these projects. In general, EDI requests should:
create jobs or meet a compelling community need; benefit low or moderate income
neighborhoods; eliminate physical or economic distress; and represent a one-year request.
Additionally, the Subcommittee looks favorably upon projects with a local funding source or
partial match. During the last evaluation cycle the Subcommittee required that all EDI projects
have a construction component and limited administrative costs to no more than 20%. We
expect similar requirements will apply to the FY08 process.
In the past, the Subcommittee has also advised that the following activities will not be eligible
for EDI funds: reimbursement of expenses (including debt service or retirements):
transportation/road projects: “first responder” projects; and healthcare facilities. Colleges and
universities generally do not receive EDI funding.
I agree with the Subcommittee criteria for economic development projects. There are many
worthy and unique civic enhancement projects that meet admirable goals, such as education and
community beautification. However, I urge you to work with me in advocating for economic
development projects that closely meet the criteria laid out by the Subcommittee.
Interior/Parks: Each year I receive request to construct and maintain parks. Although parks
greatly enhance our Wisconsin quality of life, the subcommittee has indicated that federal
funding will not be appropriated for non-federal parks and park equipment.
Law Enforcement Funding: Funding for law enforcement and crime prevention initiatives are
provided through grants to the states, and in some cases, directed appropriations funding. I am a
strong supporter of sending federal anti-crime money to state and local authorities and I am
committed to making sure that Wisconsin law enforcement receives its fair share. In the past,

CArcher_Email3011047

Wisconsin law enforcement agencies have received funding through appropriations to upgrade
communications infrastructure, install mobile data terminals in squad cars, launch
anti-methamphetamine initiatives, and establish effective juvenile crime prevention programs.
Unfortunately, requests for costs associated with the construction or renovation of law
enforcement facilities are not eligible for funding.
Additionally, many of the state and local law enforcement grant programs mentioned above have
been scaled back. I have been working to restore some of these funds, and I remain optimistic
that we can fund those law enforcement agencies and communities in greatest need. I encourage
you to inform me of any initiatives or programs you would like to see funded in the coming year.
Homeland Security: The U.S. Department of Homeland Security provides formula dollars to
states to enhance their security capabilities and discretionary awards to protect high-risk areas
and critical infrastructure. The Senate Homeland Security Appropriations Subcommittee
determines the budget for the agency and does not earmark this spending bill. You can be sure
that I will be certain to contact requestors if this practice changes, but at this time, Homeland
Security related requests including proposals for funding from the U.S. Fire Administration will
not be accepted. I remain a strong supporter of grant programs that meet the needs of our nation's
first responders, and my staff welcomes the opportunity to direct you to these funds.
Transportation: I have worked to provide funding for many Wisconsin transportation
priorities, such as buses, railroad-highway grade hazard elimination, and airport equipment. I
would like to explain my approach to funding for specific Wisconsin road and bridge projects. I
receive many letters from constituents both for and against local highway, road and bridge
projects. This input is not surprising. The construction or widening of roads and bridges shapes
communities and has a tremendous impact on our economy, environment and quality of life. We
all need safe passage to work, school or whatever our pursuit, and it=s critically important that
local infrastructure and safety needs are met. Specific road and bridge requests that have
received broad community support are more likely to result in funding.
When it comes to deciding what those needs are and should be, I am a firm believer that more
often than not, local officials know what=s best and are the most capable of reaching consensus.
While there are some instances in which Congress provides directed funding for these types of
projects the vast majority of federal funds are distributed to the states by formula, with project
selection left to state and local officials. In most cases, I am convinced that this is the fairest and
most efficient policy.
Sewers: I have been pleased to support Wisconsin sewer and wastewater projects through the
Environmental Protection Agency State and Tribal Assistance Grant (STAG) program. Again,
so that we can work together effectively, you should be aware that sewer projects are generally
considered more worthy of funding through the appropriations process if resources available to
the project under the State Revolving Loan Fund have been exhausted, and if attempts to fund
projects locally place extraordinary demands on local ratepayers. Please be aware that local
matching funds are required.
I would also encourage small communities to contact the National Small Flows Clearinghouse at

CArcher_Email3011048

West Virginia University. This organization can be a valuable resource for community leaders
looking for alternative funding sources and technical assistance for wastewater projects. They
are familiar with all the federal programs available to help upgrade and expand wastewater
treatment facilities for small towns and municipalities. They can be reached at 1-800-624-8301
or on the web at www.nsfc.wvu.edu.
Storm Water Detention and Water Quality Projects: You should be aware that there are
occasions where the Environmental Protection Agency provides funding for water projects if
they are designed to protect water quality. Also, the Army Corps of Engineers often will provide
funding for storm water detention projects. If you have storm water detention projects, I
encourage you to contact your local Army Corps of Engineers office about your proposed
projects to get their input and perspective. The interest of the local office can go a long way
toward the success of a project. Not only can they help a locality go through the necessary steps
of design and planning, but the support of the local and regional office is an important step in
gaining the support of Army Corps' headquarters. The Energy and Water Appropriations
Subcommittee, which provides funding for the Army Corps of Engineers, is most likely to fund
projects which have the support of the Army Corps' headquarters in Washington.
It is important to remember that the main missions of the Corps are to maintain navigation on
lakes and rivers and to protect against flooding. Projects that focus on these goals will be given
highest priority, while projects that are recreational in nature receive low priority from the Army.
Local Government Construction Projects: Unfortunately, I am not aware of appropriations
funds which have been directed to the upgrading of local government facilities, law enforcement
buildings and the expansion of local library systems. In general, there are limited appropriations
funds available for local construction projects, except for those meeting specialized needs such
as federal courthouses, military projects, or economic development projects which create jobs or
meet a compelling community need. I often receive requests for directed appropriations funds
for playground equipment and golf courses. Unfortunately, I am also unaware of directed
appropriations funding for these purposes.
Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education: The bulk of labor, health and education
programs are distributed either by formula to States or through competitive grants. I continue to
work hard to increase funding for these programs and to ensure that Wisconsin receives its fair
share. Wisconsin has a history of success in competing for federal grants, and my office can help
you identify existing grant programs that might be appropriate for your needs, as well as writing
letters of support for grant applications.
In the past, Wisconsin organizations have received funding through appropriations for health
care facilities construction, workforce development, substance abuse treatment and prevention,
assistance for the aging, after-school programs, education technology, teacher recruitment,
retention and professional development, and literacy programs. Please note that the only
construction money available in these areas is for health care facilities (e.g. those that provide
health care services, provide training to health professionals, and conduct health research).

CArcher_Email3011049

The appropriations process for labor, health and education programs is extremely competitive
and there are not always appropriations funds available for individual projects in each category.
In the FY2006 and FY2007 cycles, no earmarks were included. It is unclear if the Subcommittee
leadership will include earmarks in FY2008. I will certainly do everything I can to advocate on
behalf of worthwhile Wisconsin projects. However, if you choose to submit an appropriations
request in this area, I encourage you to continue to seek alternative sources of funding even as
the appropriations process moves forward. My staff and I are happy to assist you identify
possible grant resources beyond the appropriations process.
Higher Education: I receive many requests for funding from colleges and universities. While I
am well aware of the pressing needs in this area, projects most likely to receive funding are those
that improve access to and the quality of postsecondary education. Specifically, projects may
support activities that develop and demonstrate more effective approaches to postsecondary
teaching and learning; improve access, retention and graduation rates; improve college-school
cooperation; use and develop new educational technologies and develop faculty as professionals.
Projects must support postsecondary educational institutions and their students. There is no
funding for construction or associated costs or endowments, with the exception of health carerelated facilities noted above. Funding may be used to acquire technology and for associated
costs related to the project, but this should be a minimal use of funds.
Economic development projects spearheaded by educational institutions are unlikely to receive
education funding if they do not advance post-secondary education. Projects may be eligible for
Labor Department funding if they include a job-training component. Also, institutions working
on economic development projects with a non-profit community partner, are advised that the
partner may be eligible for HUD Economic Development Initiative funding

Northpoint Lighthouse funding
Monday, February 12, 2007 1:12:45 PM

We have identified $115,000 excess funding related to a completed paving
project that can be reallocated to the above project. You recall the low bids
came in and the project is $178,000 short. Since the Friends of the Lighthouse
have raised more than their orignial commitment towards this project, the
Executive's Office gave the go ahead for me to work with Broderick to get this
done. I spoke to Broderick this morning and told him we were putting together
a fund transfer for the $115,000. This has to go down this cycle b/c it is
carryover funds and should be done no later than this cycle. I told Broderick
we would continue to look for the balance but that may come later. He
idicated that the $115,000 may have to be enough.
I will give Nyklewicz a heads up on this transfer tomorrow at agenda setting.
It is my understanding this will only go to Finance, however, I expect the
issue of funding to come up at the Parks Committee when they approve the award
of the bid. Broderick did not seem to want me to talk to De Bruin however.
Let me know if I need to do anything else at this point.

Final Draft Billing & Collection Audit Report 1-29-07.pdf
Final Draft Exhibit 2 Billing & Collection Audit Report 1-29-07.pdf
High

Rob,
Attached is the draft of a collections audit done by County staff. They wanted
our response for this Board cycle and I negotiated it to the March cycle. They
still want a DAS response by tomorrow. I do not think we are able to make
tomorrow. In essence, we got no comments back from department's which is
probably not a big deal since most of the proposed work will fall on DAS.
Next, before responding I want your input. The recommendations of the report
are fine but my issue is who is going to do all this work? We oversee the TRIP
program but we do not have staff to take over a centralized billing function so
I am not sure how you want to proceed with this. The immediate issue is I
suspect you want to be involved in this, if so, could you call Doug Jenkins and
let him know that due to to the tranision and your desire to be involved in
this, a DAS response will not be forthcoming tomorrow? When I talked to Doug
he seems in a hurry to get this done not because anyone is asking for it, just
because he wants to get it off his plate. He said Rich is not asking for it so
I don't know what the big rush is.
If you do not agree with this approach, please give me a call and I will
proceed as you wish.
Thanks.
Cindy

To All:
Attached is the final revision of the Billing & Collection draft audit report.
This draft report reflects changes resulting from the exit conference with the
Department of Administrative Services on January 22, 2007. As a result of
comments from departments reviewed during the audit, as well as from DAS, we
have added language that better articulates our vision for a 'hybrid'
centralization of collection efforts (please see pages3--4 and 42--45 of the
draft report).
There are 15 audit recommendations in the report; 14 are addressed to DAS
(either directly, or as coordinator for a recommended workgroup) and 1 is
addressed to the Clerk of Circuit Court. Therefore, we are requesting written
responses from the Director of Administrative Services and from the Clerk of
Circuit Court.
Please direct any input you wish to have incorporated into the written
response, to be included in the final audit report, to Linda Seemeyer. To
accommodate County Board deadlines, we are requesting written responses from
the Director of Administrative Services and the Clerk of Circuit Court by the
end of business on Monday, February 5, 2007.
Thank you all for your cooperation throughout the audit.

FLSA status of budget analysts
Tuesday, February 13, 2007 7:16:32 AM

Rob, I know we are all busy now by Michael announced yesterday he is leaving
the budget office and I suspect we may have more vacancies come up in the next
couple months. Before we begin recruiting for this position I would like to
ask that you, Jim Eggers and myself sit down and discuss the FLSA status of
these positions. Upon my arrival I learned that the budget staff were
accumulating time and half in overtime. I have never seen these positions
covered under FLSA. It has created substantial coverage problems in the budget
office since the passage of the budget. In short I met with Eggers and he
acknowledged that they probably should not be covered by FLSA but the decision
was made for somewhat political purposes. We could get them reclassified but
the analysts that are here feel that the overtime provisions were part of their
compensation package when hired. As we have turnover, I am wondering if we
should not address this in some way. Perhaps there is a way to "grandfather
in" the current analysts but cease the practice for new hires. Some will also
argue it will be hard to recruit without this "sweetener" but we do not have
the numbers of staff we have had in the past and absorbing so much overtime in
my view is not practical. I am not saying that the analyst don't deserve to
earn some comp time, but time and half, hour for hour seems excessive to me and
not practical. Again, this is coming because we need to start a recrutiment
effort. Let me know your thoughts.

Deferred Maintenance 021407.xls

This does not appear to be what I asked for. What I wanted to know was how
much the county spent on MPM maintenance each of the last 5 years and for what
compared to what MPM spent over the same period so we could compare it to the
lease stipulations in terms of who is responsible for what. I also think the
Museuem is using a bogus or unsupported number what they are saying they have
spent on items they say were the County's responsibility. If this is all we
got, it is not reponsive to what I asked for. Please advise.

The attached is a summary MPM's deferred building maintenance. Larry Bannister,
MPM facilities director, compiled this list which totals $19.1 m. He is using
the same set of information MPM submits to the county's Architectural and
Engineering planning group. They update annually a 5-year plan for projects for
each of the county's facilities. The plan is included in the budget process
where final priorities and dollars are determined.

CHART OVERVIEW
The attached Capital Improvement Project Flow and Cost Distribution Chart is provided for the benefit of all participants as an assessment tool in forecasting the
distribution of capital project funds over the next ten years as profiled in the Lease and Management Agreement between MPM and Milwaukee County. The Chart is
sectioned into three main groups that are subdivided into column categories with associated costs. The Three main groups and their categories are (1) Improvement
Project Flow which profiles the Capital Budget Item, Rank and Original estimated cost ; (2) MPM Matching Cost Projection and Project Share, component categories are
Estimated MPM labor man-hours, Labor cost per project, Estimated MPM project management cost at 7.5% for each project and the net cost of each MPM assigned
project; (3) the last group is the Capital Cost Share distribution for both MPM and Milwaukee County.
This is a fluid document that will act as the benchmark in performing the necessary Capital improvements and Lifecycle replacements that all facilities face. The list

Friday, February 23, 2007 8:49:10 AM

I spoke to the Executive and these projects should proceed as planned
regardless of how negotiations proceed. Thanks for the follow up.
I would like to meet with whoever in facilities is responsible for preparing
captial requests on for the MPM. The purpose of the meeting is to go through
the MPM list and identify which projects are appropriate for the county to do
relative to our existing responsibilites in the lease and two get Facilites
assessment of top prioritiy projects based on their assessment. To be clear, I
do NOT want Facilites to enagage in any discussions with the MPM on this topic
since it would affect our negotiation position. Can you arrange such a meeting
for early next week?

Fw: Executive Compensation Plan (ECP) Revisions
Friday, February 23, 2007 9:47:16 AM

I have a very vauge knowledge about this issue and history of it. When you are
briefed on it, I would like to attend so I can better understand how it impacts
our processing of certs, budgeting for positions and creation of new
positions. We should put this on our to-do list. :)

        Executive Compensation Plan (ECP) Revisions





Dr. Jackson:
It has come to my attention that File No. 04-240, the ECP revision
resolution/ordinance presented by Human Resources and approved by the County
Board in the Fall of 2004, is not being fully administered.
As you know, this resolution created the Executive Director (1, 2 & 3) level
positions and identified a significant number of remaining ECP positions that
were envisioned to be placed back into the classified service after a DHR
review. The resolution, however, was not specific as to when the DHR review
would occur.
It is my understanding that the Parks Department is now seeking to fill the
vacant position of Budget Manager (Title Code 79710). This position was
identified in the 2004 DHR ECP report as being vacant. It was subsequently
filled and is now vacant again. It would seem to be a logical time for the
review as envisioned as part of the ECP restructuring. Understandably, Parks

CArcher_Email3011157

officials wish to fill this position without delay so as to avoid disruption in
the budget preparation process.
Moreover, this position was identified by DAS as being a "key fiscal position"
per County Board Resolution 04-276. Supervisors were concerned about the
credentials of key fiscal personnel throughout the County due, in part, to
several instances of departments failing to accurately project looming budget
deficits. Having the Budget Manager position in the classified service, as was
planned over two years ago, would help ensure that the successful candidate is
selected on a merit based process.
While I highlight the Budget Manager position, it is my understanding that
other ECP positions are in a similar "limbo" as this one. I realize that your
staff is burdened with other pressing responsibilities, but I believe these ECP
position reviews should not be further delayed, especially if the position is
currently vacant.

by May re performance contracting and the fiscal analysis of the Green Print

As I am sure you are, I am concerned about how easy it is for the Board to

limited staff. Any thoughts on the attached? It seems purchasing specific.

Talking to George yesterday about the housekeeping issues in the courthouse and
safety building, he reminded me that the county is still holding 12
housekeeping positions (since we were unsure of staffing with county
employees). It seems clear that we need to fill some or all of these positions
to meet the demands of a maintaining a decent complex.
Any thoughts?

Remanufactured Toners

3

Currently Milwaukee County has a contract with Xerographic
Supply of WI.
Milwaukee County purchased $108,714.80 in new toner and
ink products. In the past 12 months. Had compatible,
remanufactured toners been purchased whenever available in
this period, the total cost for new toners and ink products
would have been $85, 290.30
This means that Milwaukee County could have saved
approximately $23, 424.50 by purchasing remanufactured
toners when they were available.
Remanufactured Toners were picked as a starting point for the
Green Purchasing Task Force because it impacts every
department here today. Every department prints and faxes so
it has broad appeal.

Hi Cindy. Based on the Resolution, this Task Force is supposed to be led by
the DAS Director. My guess is that this was sent to you only because I'm not
confirmed yet. I would volunteer to go, but I have my last DHHS management
meeting at that time. Could you possibly attend this one and explain that I
will attend future meetings myself once I'm confirmed? If not, could you send
Alex to make the same statement? Also, the Resolution includes
DAS-Procurement, so I am assuming that Pinkey will be there.
In regard to the broader issue of the Board constantly dumping things in the
lap of DAS and ignoring the fact that we have many more important things to do,
this has been going on forever. Here's where hopefully I can help take some of
the burden off you and your staff by talking some sense into some Supervisors
and/or trying to steer some of the work to their own County Board staff.

Re: Facilities
Friday, February 23, 2007 2:42:53 PM

Here is where we are at on filling the 12 vacant facilities positions. As you
know these are not fully funded in the Facilities Department budget. In the
absence of finding additional funding, filling these vacancies would create a
deficit in the Facilities budget. We are currently analyzing our options for
to full funding all DC 48 positions county-wide. I explained to both Jack and
George that we expect to have some preliminary estimates on the impact of DC48
on the budget as early as next week. If you move forward in filling these now,
please be aware that the contract prevents any layoffs of DC48 positions during
2007. To the extent we have a budget hole related to DC48 and these were
filled we would need to look to other classifications for possible layoffs.
We are critically evaluating the filling of all DC48 positions and have
approved critical ones. We have also moved ahead in filling some security
positions. Others are being held vacant to maintain some flexibility in the
event we are short. I recommend we hold tight for one more week if possible to
better understand how we are going to fund our commitments. Please keep in
mind that the positions in question have been vacant for quite some time -holding off a week or so would be preferable.
Lastly, keep in mind for 2007 we have unfunded commitments related not only to
DC48, but also the non-rep pay provisions and the labor agreements yet to be
settled for 2007. I expect to have better information next week regarding our
ability to reallocate or absorb these costs, but for now I am recommending that
only the most critical positions be filled in the event we are faced with the
need for a corrective action plan.

        Security Staffing





Jack:
As per our conversation, DAS Fiscal will be approving the Certification Request
to fill five positions of Facilities Worker Security (Hourly). There were 12
of these positions created in the January 2007 Board Cycle, two of which are
filled currently. With the approval of five additional this will bring the
total to seven.
It is my understanding that 29 positions of the total 34 for Security Worker
are currently filled and that the five hourly positions requested above will be
filled instead of hiring additional Security Workers beyond the 29 positions
currently staffed.
In addition, if you could please forward the staffing plan discussed that is
currently in place for security as a whole that would be helpful to me.
If you have additional questions or concerns please contact me.

Rob, this is one of the things we need to talk about. I could see myself being
very involved in this or not. I am concerned about the time investment and
would like to discuss how much Budget/Finance staff resources should go to
this. This may be one of those issues where we do not want to duplicate each
other.

One option is to keep Manske very involved and have Dan S. continue to stay up
to speed on this from a resource perspective. Alex and I would then take a
backseat so we could focus on other things. I will obviously do as you wish
but we should probably have a conversation about it so we remain on the same
page.

Thanks.

Re: 2007 Workload for Capital/Operating Team
Tuesday, February 27, 2007 7:52:11 AM

very nicely done Pam. I appreciate you taking the time to lay this out. Bring
it to our staff meeting today with copies for everyone.

I know there is a continual pull between your analysts as it related to their
operating assignments and captial assignments. That is precisely why I wanted
to explore the possibility of filling and perhaps upgrading the vacant Capital
Analysts with you. In an ideal world, I would attempt to fill it with salary
savings this year and provide permanent funding for it in the next budget. I
am not sure how realistic I am being, but it is on the table for discussion and
I would like your input.

Given the downsizing of the budget office in recent years, I would like to make
every effort to get our office fully staffed. This means the two vacant
operations analysts that report to Alex and the one vacant captial analysts
that reports to you. I know we have held the capital analysts for budget
reasons, but maybe we can figure out how to be able to fill it.
There is also some confusion about what the duites of this position are. I
have been told it is more clerical in nature, but looking back at some
paperwork from HR it looks like it was reclassified from an assistant to an
analyst. My interest is in filling it as an analysts if at all possible. I
can find on current job description for it from HR. Do you have one?

Hi Steve. For a change, I get to remind you of something that perhaps County
Board staff needs to follow-up on. This is language in the Adopted Budget that
I was unaware of prior to today. It suggests that an Ordinance change laying
out the "appointing and managing authority and confirmation criteria" for the
new Employee Benefits Director position needs to be brought forward to
Personnel. Is this something in your mind that DAS/DHR was to come up with, or
something that you guys were going to simply forward to the Committee as a
legislative clean-up item from the Budget (especially given that this was a
County Board initiative)?

Rob:
As per the 2007 Adopted Budget, a modification to the Milwaukee County General
Ordinances will need to be made as it relates to the Director of DAS Employee
Benefits. Since recruitment for this position is currently in progress, I
wanted to provide a heads-up to be sure that the ordinance change is taking
place. Please refer to the language below included in the Employee Fringe
Benefits budget (Org. Unit 1950) and the DAS Employee Benefits budget (Org.
Unit 1188).

This does not appear to be what I asked for. What I wanted to know was how
much the county spent on MPM maintenance each of the last 5 years and for what
compared to what MPM spent over the same period so we could compare it to the
lease stipulations in terms of who is responsible for what. I also think the
Museuem is using a bogus or unsupported number what they are saying they have
spent on items they say were the County's responsibility. If this is all we
got, it is not reponsive to what I asked for. Please advise.

The attached is a summary MPM's deferred building maintenance. Larry Bannister,
MPM facilities director, compiled this list which totals $19.1 m. He is using
the same set of information MPM submits to the county's Architectural and
Engineering planning group. They update annually a 5-year plan for projects for
each of the county's facilities. The plan is included in the budget process
where final priorities and dollars are determined.

We did not commit to finding the remaining balance of $63,000. We support the
transfer currently before the Board. I would think NPLF should explore options
for the balance. At one point this was meant to be a loan and the Exec did not
propose it as such. So it is $115,000 free and clear. Having said that, I
think they can find the balance. Call me if you want. In other words, if they
want this to pass the Board, they should be willing to pick up the balance
otherwise this whole thing might get balled up.

Jim,
As you may know, the County Board Finance Committee approved Appropriations
Transfers which includes a fund transfer of $115,000 to the Lake Park
Lighthouse Renovation (#WP051012) for consideration by the Full Board tomorrow,
March 1, 2007. County Administrative staff and County Board Supervisors and
staff have been very helpful in advancing this matter. Thank you.
NPLF and Public Works/Parks are working to adjust the project scope enough to
practically keep the remaining $63,000 fund shortfall from preventing the
County to accept the project low bid. That is, with approval of #WP051012, the
County will accept the low bid before expiration on March 3 so that restoration
will proceed. The County and NPLF will continue to seek funding of any scope
items not included within the accepted low bid.
To the extent that the matter becomes the focus of special consideration before
the Board tomorrow, NPLF would greatly appreciate the County Executive's
continued support. If you have any question about this request, please call me
at 414-588-2720. Thanks again.

2007 Budget Issues
Wednesday, February 28, 2007 2:37:19 PM

Central budget and finance staff are working on costing out and identifying
options for funding the recent DC48 and nonrep payplan provisions. In
addition, we are looking at the issue of full funding of DC 48 positions that
were put back in the budget but not fully funded via Board amendments. As part
of this process, I would like to ask each of you to notify my office by close
of business on Friday of any significant items you have identified in your
department's 2007 adopted budget. I am not asking for a complete analysis, but
if you are aware of structural issues that either were not addressed in the
2007 budget or were created via the amendment process I would like to be made
aware of these. I am interested in issues on both the expenditure and revenue
side. Once we have identified the issues, we will follow up with you for
details.
I would appreciate your assistance with this. Please send responses to
Catherine Koper at [email protected] by the close of business Friday.
Thanks.

Re: Miscellaneous DHR matters
Wednesday, February 28, 2007 5:19:23 PM

I spoke to our staff and the Chad issue will be dealt with. He and I will
attend the civil service commisstion meeting.
Reclasses do not leave my office without approval of HR. I think the confusion
is that many times department's submit them to both your office and mine at the
same time. The process should be be that HR approves position transactions
from an HR perspective and then it comes to budget to confirm funding. Nothing
should go to the Board without both steps. With exception of a promotion that
I had to pull from an agenda last week because it had not come to budget, I
think this process is working fairly well. We have one right now from Aging
that we are awaiting HR decision on. I guess this is done verbally between
analysts, but I would prefer it in writing. I assume HR notifies department's
of their conclusion when requests come in so a copy of that would be good.
I have something that maybe you can help with. My understanding is that my
Capital Finance Manager has no position descritpion. Can this be true? If so,
is there a template that can be emailed me to use to complete an position
description? Also, I would like a copy of the former Deputy FABA position
description (position was abolished in the last couple years) as well as a copy
of Manske's job description. Can someone on you staff get this for me?
Thanks.

        Miscellaneous DHR matters






CArcher_Email3011211

Dear Cindy:
I want to make you aware of three personnel matters.
1. You should be receiving an e mail from Jean Mueller who is on our staff
(retired) and responsible for position control. She is emailing you the list
of 2007 vacancies, abolishments that you asked for at Cabinet meeting. You
wanted this for comparison.
2.   You have a fiscal analyst 2 on your staff who was hired by Steve without
a Master's degree, pending the receipt of this degree this December. Our
records show this has not happened, as such, we will have to bring this matter
up to Civil Service as an addendum to ask for extension of his temporary
appointment, pending getting this degree. Chad however needs to provide us
with concrete information and deadlines as to when this will occur. Pat
Perry-Wright will be following up Chad directly. However, you may want to
attend the Civil Service meeting for this item only in support of Chad's
request. Chad should plan to be there also with his rationale for this
request. The meeting is scheduled for Thursday, 2:00, room 203P . We will
forward an agenda with the addendum to you.
3. I have been aware of a gap in the business processes between your office
and mine as they relate to reclassification. A dept will request a
reclassification. DHR receives these, and makes a determination yes or no
whether the position qualifies. That determination is to be final (unless they
appeal to the Board). There is however a way to get around this process, and
we currently have a position that is doing just that. Apparently, a dept. head
can just request the fiscal adjustment through your dept (w/o our knowledge)
and if approved ( and often it is because they do have the budget for it), then
DHR has to go ahead and perform the reclass even though it does not meet
criteria for reclassification.
I believe this is a matter that only requires coordination/communication on
our parts. The two processes may be mutually exclusive. It may be that their
budget can be approved, but that doesn't mean the reclass has to be. Or it may
be that the reclass is approved without budget. Either one creates confusion.
It is probably best to be on the same page. I believe Dan S in your dept. and
James Tate in mine are dealing with this now.    Let me know how you would like
to proceed. On a scale of urgent to important, it is probably more important
than urgent at this time.
The background of this as I understand it, that under the previous
administration there was an agreement to do something about it but it never
happened. Under our administrations, I think we have a mutual interests of
resolving these minor issues before they become a 'cog' (is that right? ) in
the wheel.
Please advise.
Karen

Aging surplus
Wednesday, February 28, 2007 5:43:20 PM

Could you follow up with Aging regarding their projected 2006 surplus. This is
the issue I mentioned to you. This is not the CMO surplus. They contacted Rob
and wanted to meet with him regarding it. I told Rob you and I would handle
it. Please call and see what their issue is. I suspect this goes without
saying but I am going to say it anyway -- our goal is to maximize dollars to
the botton line, not find creative ways to allow departments to hang onto
money. I assume you keep this this in mind when you are "assisting"
departments with accurals and so forth. Let me know what you find out. Thanks.

Meetings regarding MPM
Thursday, March 01, 2007 3:41:03 PM

Dan Finley called and would like to meet with us to go over some numbers. Mike
Bernatz will come along as well. The part of the meeting I am aware of is that
their analysis understated the County contribution as proposed by them on their
charts. Mike and Pam have been working together to correct the numbers. The
meeting is 1:00 on Monday in our large conference room. If possible, I would
like you to try to make it. Thanks.
On another note, I got an email from the VP of Chase Bank (Steve Abbey)
indicating he would like to meet with me to discuss a "new idea". I will
attempt to set this meeting up and will also notify you of time and place. I
think it is best if we all hear the same stuff at the same time.
Let me know if you have questions or concerns. Thanks.

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
INTEROFFICE COMMUNICATION

DATE

: March 1, 2007

TO

: Cynthia Archer, Fiscal and Budget Administrator

FROM

: Ronald K. Malone, Superintendent, House of Correction

SUBJECT : 2007 House of Correction Budget Concerns

The 2007 Adopted Budget for the House of Correction contains a number of areas of concern for
HOC administrators. At this point, some of the items are not currently problems but are
potential issues for the HOC and are highlighted as such. The major areas of concern are
itemized below with a brief description.
Jail Population – Dorm closures
The 2007 Adopted Budget for the HOC anticipates operating with six dorms closed (a seventh
dorm was anticipated due to the removal of State inmates which is discussed below). For the
first two months of 2007, the HOC has been able to maintain six dorm closures and on March 1,
2007, the HOC was able to close an additional dorm to bring the total to seven. The overall
inmate population has been very low this year but achieving the 2007 Adopted Budget requires
it remaining low enough to keep the six dorms closed throughout the year. At this point, the
HOC does not anticipate this being a problem but it is a continuous concern and cause for
monitoring at the HOC.
Farm and Fish Hatchery
The County Board restored three positions of CO Agriculture offsetting those positions with a
personal services lumpsum reduction, which means the HOC is obligated to run the Farm and
Fish Hatchery without funding in 2007. The cost of the Farm and Fish Hatchery in 2007 is
anticipated to be $313,640. This item is further complicated by the manner in which pslumpsum
was handled at the amendment level. The positions were restored with full fringe costs but the
lumpsum offsetting them hit only salary and social security, which results in the HOC’s having
to hold additional positions vacant to cover the additional salary reduction.
Print Shop Program
The County Board put in an amendment to establish a certification Printing Program for the
HOC Graphics Shop. The funding that was provided for a contract with WCS was entirely
offset with a $48,745 personal services lumpsum. The lumpsum amount is the equivalent to 1
and a half positions in the Graphics Shop where there are only five people employed.
Utilities/Maintenance Issues
CArcher_Email3011231

Request to grant temporary limited easement to WisDOT for West Ryan Road

November 22, 2004
Page 2

Annually, the HOC spends over $1.5 million on utilities. The 2007 Adopted Budget contains
$40,000 less that was expended in 2006. Utilities cost increases are a concern at the HOC since
there is not funding to offset any rate increases and a slight deficit would occur if usage remains
at 2006 levels. Of greater concern to the HOC is leaking that is occurring within the plumbing
and the roof of the 400 and 600-bed addition that was completed in 2000. The pipes are
beginning to rot and are causing multiple leaks within the walls of the facility. These pipes are
only seven years old and should have had a useful life of 25 years or more. The HOC is
requesting an estimate from the Department of Public Works (DPW) on the cost to replace all of
the plumbing within the facility. The piping should be under warranty from the original installer
and Corporation Counsel could pursue compensation if potential liability from the installer is
determined. Similarly, the roof on the 400 and 600 bed facility, which should also have had a
useful life of 25 years, has begun to leak and the HOC is seeking estimates from DPW on the
cost to repair. This item should also be under warranty. The HOC is incurring substantial
maintenance costs to repair the leaks and the damage caused by them. Since these repairs were
unanticipated and should the leaks continue to occur in 2007, this could result in a significant
deficit in the maintenance budget at the HOC for 2007.
DC48 Wage increase
The HOC has estimated that the fiscal impact to the HOC from the DC48 wage increase is
roughly $27,000 per pay period from January to November and $33,750 per pay period from
November to December for an approximate annual cost of $729,000. These costs were not
budgeted.
FMLA Recurring Issue
FMLA continues to be an issue at the HOC. With a 24/7 operation the use of FMLA continues
to cause significant increases in overtime due to unanticipated absences. Overtime expenditures
for 2006 totaled $2.8 million, which was $1.4 million over the anticipated budget. The HOC
was able to end the year with a salary surplus due to savings in the number of hours worked on
straight time and by holding additional positions vacant. The amount of overtime expended
highlights the amount of staff time being served on an overtime basis rather than on straight time
as budgeted. The HOC had anticipated for every FTE authorized that 1,740 hours of straight
time would be worked which equates to a total of 856,388 straight time hours. Actual straight
time hours worked for 2006 were 781,336 or a difference of 75,052 hours, hours that were then
filled on an overtime basis. This issue has not been resolved for the HOC and will continue to
be a problem in 2007.
Housing of State Inmates
At the time of the adoption of the 2007 Budget, the State Department of Corrections had given
the Sheriff’s Office notice that it intended to cancel its contract with Milwaukee County for the
housing of state prisoners near the end of their sentence. The state inmates are housed at the CJF
which in turn causes the HOC to open a dorm. Due to that information from the State, the HOC
and the Sheriff's Office removed the expenditures and revenues associated with this contract. In
2006, the State paid $1,080,000 to the County, which was offset by $400,000 in the costs of
opening a dorm, for a net tax levy savings of $303,800 at the HOC and $336,200 in the Sheriff's
Office. The State has not removed its inmates as of this date. Therefore, the HOC has

CArcher_Email3011232

Request to grant temporary limited easement to WisDOT for West Ryan Road

November 22, 2004
Page 3

unanticipated revenue of approximately $25,316 per month being generated as long as the State
inmates remain. To date, $50,633 of additional revenue has been earned by the HOC.
HOC Water Tower
In fall of 2006, the HOC declared an emergency regarding the fire suppression system at the
HOC. Currently, the HOC uses the existing water tower for fire suppression but there was
significant concern on the part of the maintenance staff of the viability of the water tower to
actually provide that suppression in case of a fire. An emergency declaration was declared in
order to proceed with the annexing of the City of Franklin’s water tower in order to provide fire
suppression. That project is currently underway although there is some concern over the cost of
the project which could require additional funding or the transfer of funds from another capital
project.
Telephone Revenue
The 2007 Adopted Budget included $977,950 in telephone revenue. In November of 2005, the
HOC begin a program of offering debit cards to inmates as an alternative to collect calls. The
program has been more popular than anticipated. The 2006 actual for telephone revenue was
$965,708. In January of 2007, the HOC collected $100,000 in telephone revenues. If this trend
where to continue the HOC would collect $1.2 million in telephone revenues for 2007 creating a
revenue surplus of $222,050.
Food Service – Aramark
The contract for food services with Aramark was budgeted for $3,300,000 for 2007. The 2006
actual was $3,500,000. This was in part due to a consumer price index increase received by
Aramark of 2% in July of 2006. This CPI price index was not budgeted for in 2007. If the
number of meals produced by the HOC remains the same in 2007 as it was in 2006, a deficit of
at least $200,000 will occur. An additional item of concern for the HOC is the age of the
kitchen equipment. A capital project expense of $500,000 was included in the five-year plan for
the HOC with $200,000 being projected in 2008 and $300,000 in 2009. Many of the items
purchased to install the quick chill system are reaching the end of their useful life and will need
to be replaced.

The above list provides a summary of the major concerns of the HOC administrators. Please feel
free to contact me if you required additional information on any of the items.

Subject: Overdraft FSA - Ceridian
Dear Colleagues:

CArcher_Email3011234

Please be advised that just a few minutes ago, Ceridian again withdrew too much
money, in this case $100.00 causing us to again have an overdraft. You may
know that the same thing happened last week for the amount of $210.00. We have
also had at least two other instances this year.    Whereas the amount does not
seem monumental, the implications for these errors are.   We invest countless
hours just trying to clean this up, get money deposited in time to cover the
overdraft while tryomg to secure a refund from Ceridian.Most of you know that
we have been working on this problem for months, and Ceridian continue to
ignore our guidelines and place The County's credit in jeopardy through
creating overdrafts. I don't know that this impact the customer (our
employees) directly; but it does not bode well for continuing the use of the
this product.
I know there is a lot going on, But as the smoke clears, I am requesting that
we consider an cessation of the use of this product from this company at some
point.

Karen R. Jackson, Ph.D.
Interim Director, Division of Human Resources

Central budget and finance staff are working on costing out and identifying
options for funding the recent DC48 and nonrep payplan provisions. In
addition, we are looking at the issue of full funding of DC 48 positions that
were put back in the budget but not fully funded via Board amendments. As part
of this process, I would like to ask each of you to notify my office by close
of business on Friday of any significant items you have identified in your
department's 2007 adopted budget. I am not asking for a complete analysis, but
if you are aware of structural issues that either were not addressed in the
2007 budget or were created via the amendment process I would like to be made
aware of these. I am interested in issues on both the expenditure and revenue
side. Once we have identified the issues, we will follow up with you for
details.
I would appreciate your assistance with this. Please send responses to
Catherine Koper at [email protected] by the close of business Friday.
Thanks.

        2007 budget issues





Attached is my response to your request for information/concerns regarding the
2007 budget.



CArcher_Email3011332

PERSONAL SERVICE LUMP SUM REDUCTION
LUMP SUM EXPENDITURE REDUCTION
The 2007 adopted budget for the Sheriff’s Office includes a personal service lump sum
reduction of $4,040,329 in salary and wages and a reduction of $309,089 in social
security without any reduction in fringe benefits. This lump sum reduction is the
equivalent of approximately 80 full time positions.
In addition, the 2007 adopted budget for the Sheriff’s Office includes a lump sum
expenditure reduction of $1,000,000. If this lump sum reduction is applied to salary and
wages, it is the equivalent of approximately 20 full time positions. (There are no surplus
funds in contractual services, commodities or equipment that can be used to offset the
lump sum expenditure reduction.)
These two lump sum reductions leave the Sheriff’s Office with an extremely tight salary
and wages budget which may result in the Sheriff reducing staffing levels or eliminating
programs in order to avoid a salary and wage deficit. However, because fringe benefits
were not reduced as part of the lump sum reduction, the Sheriff’s Office has excess
appropriations for fringe benefits. It is difficult for me to propose/justify a reduction in
salary and wage expenditures when this large surplus in fringe benefits exists in the
Sheriff’s budget.
Consideration should be given to redistributing these lump sum reductions to include a
reduction in fringe benefits. I suggest the following reallocation of the total lump sum
reduction of $5,349,418:

Average FTE

5199
$50,535

5312
$3,866

5401
$37,334

Total Lump Sum Reduction
Equivalent Number of FTE (5,349,418/91,735)
Proposed allocation

$2,946,889

$225,441

Total
$91,735
$5,349,418
58.3

$2,177,088

$5,349,418

DETENTION SERVICES BUREAU
The tax levy of Detention Services Bureau is $48,978,292. This is 75.3% of the entire
Sheriff’s Office 2007 tax levy budget of $65,001,113. In order for the Sheriff’s Office to
operate within its budget appropriations, the Detention Services Bureau must manage its
inmate population within budgeted levels; must control inmate medical costs; and must
keep vacant positions to a minimum.
The House of Correction has been established as an overflow facility for pre-trial
inmates. This has permitted the Sheriff to keep the inmate population of the Criminal
Justice Facility (CJF) below the design capacity of 960 beds.

CArcher_Email3011333

The control of inmate medical costs continues to be a challenge while under the
requirements of the Christensen lawsuit settlement. Recruiting, hiring, training and
retaining medical staff has been a problem. However, fourteen positions have been hired
by the medical unit since December 1, 2006. This has reduced the number of vacant
positions in the medical unit to approximately 23. Some of these positions will be held
vacant to help meet the agency’s lump sum personal service deduction, while others such
as Nurse Practitioners need to be filled as quickly as possible. In the interim, the Sheriff’s
Office has established a medical resident program that utilizes residents from the Medical
College to perform the function of the vacant Nurse Practitioners. An appropriation
transfer request will be submitted this month to transfer $200,000 from personal services
to contractual services to fund this program. If additional Nurse Practitioners are not
hired before July an additional transfer may be needed.
Other concerns related to inmate medical services include delays in the implementation
of an electronic medical records system and delays in gaining County Board approval for
a new pharmacy services contract. Progress is being made on the electronic medical
records (EMR) system, but years of delay have required the Sheriff’s Office to utilize a
temporary help agency to manage hard copy medical records that have not been entered
into the EMR. The 2007 budget provides $75,000 for this temporary help service.
However, actual temporary help service expenditures by the medical unit in 2006 were
over $250,000. The County Board approved the new pharmacy vendor on March 1, 2007
after a three-month delay. Pharmacy costs are being provided by the previous vendor on
a month-to-month basis until the new vendor can begin operation at a cost that is $15,000
to $20,000 more per month than the new vendor will charge.
Long term, it would be beneficial to the Sheriff’s Office if another agency would provide
inmate medical services instead of having law enforcement professionals managing a
$15.4 million medical operation.
In order to control the cost of operation the Criminal Justice Facility, as part of the 2005
adopted budget, the Sheriff’s Office gained approval from the County Board to replace
200 Deputy Sheriff’s assigned the CJF with Correction Officers through attrition. It was
originally projected that up to 50 deputies would be replaced by correction officers each
year. Due to problems with recruitment and retention, there are only 83 filled Correction
Officer positions in the Sheriff’s Office today. The Correction Officer/Deputy Sheriff 1
staffing level for the CJF has been set at 290 positions. If the Sheriff’s Office is unable to
recruit, hire, train and retain a sufficient number of Correction Officers to staff the CJF,
Deputy Sheriff 1 positions are assigned to the CJF from other areas of the Sheriff’s
Office and additional overtime hours are expended throughout the agency.

The 2007 adopted budget included a $500,000 personal service lump sum reduction
based on implementation of a Jail Booking Interface between the CJF and the City of
Milwaukee effective July 1, 2007. (This amount is part of the personal service lump sum
reduction discussed previously.) However, the $468,000 cost of this project was not

CArcher_Email3011334

included in the 2007 adopted budget. The Sheriff’s Office submitted an appropriation
transfer at the end of 2006 to transfer surplus salary appropriations to an equipment
account to fund this initiative. Subsequently, the Sheriff’s Office has requested a
carryover of this equipment budget from 2006 to 2007. Aside from the funding issue, the
Sheriff’s Office has concern that this project is not progressing quickly enough to meet
the July 1, 2007 target date. In fact, the Sheriff’s Office is not anticipating any savings
from the Jail Booking Interface in 2007 as part of internally managing available
resources. This is not to say that we are not aggressively pursuing implementation of the
Jail Booking Interface. But we have reallocated resources in order to avoid a deficit if
this initiative does not generate savings in 2007.
OTHER ISSUES
The County Executive’s Recommended Budget for 2007 eliminated the Sheriff’s Drug
Enforcement Unit and the High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area grant program. The
County Board restored the positions related to these programs but did not restore funding
for the non-personal service costs related to these programs. The requested budget for
the Drug Enforcement Unit (4062) included non-personal service costs of $165,607 for
operations of this program. The requested budget for the High Intensity Drug Trafficking
Area grant program included non-personal service costs of $20,571 for operations of this
program.
The Deputy Sheriff 1 liaison position with IMSD was abolished in the 2007 adopted
budget. The Sheriff has determined that this is a necessary position and has continued
assigning one Deputy Sheriff 1 position to this function even though funding was
eliminated for the position.
Previously, IMSD purchased replacement computer equipment through a capital project.
The 2007 adopted budget eliminated funding for this computer replacement capital
project. Departments are now responsible for the replacement of their existing computer
equipment. However, departments were not informed of this change and no funds were
provided in departmental budgets for this purpose.
The Sheriff’s Office is experiencing a problem with salary compression between the
ranks of Sergeant, Lieutenant and Captain positions. Sergeants are members of the
Deputy Sheriff’s Association and have received negotiated wage increases and are paid
overtime at time and a half. Lieutenants are non-represented positions that receive
overtime at a straight time rate. Captains are part of the old ECP system. They are
salaried positions that are not paid for overtime and have had their pay frozen for several
years prior to 2006 and are not allowed step increases. (The Captains status is somewhat
confusing in that they were part of the old ECP system but are not part of the new ECP
system. I am not sure if old ECP positions are supposed to become non-rep positions
upon vacancy or if they will continue as old ECP positions.) As of 12/31/06, a Sergeant
is paid a base salary of $62,417; a Lieutenant is paid a base salary of between $54,534
and $65,131; and a Captain is paid a base salary between $57,236 and $74,408. Because
of the difference in the treatment of overtime pay, almost every Sergeant is ultimately

CArcher_Email3011335

paid more than a Lieutenant and most Sergeants are paid more than a Captain. This
situation needs to be corrected. A Sergeant should not have to lose pay to accept a
promotion and a Captain should not have to accept more responsibility for the operations
of the Sheriff’s Office while seeing subordinates routinely receiving more pay.
This is not an all inclusive list. I have not addressed the impact on non-CJF operations
such as bailiffs, expressway patrol airport security etc when we have staffing shortages or
demands for increased service levels but it does give you an insight to the challenges
facing the Sheriff’s Office in 2007.
Your assistance in providing solutions to any of these issues will be greatly appreciated.

their new idea is a lease agreement with the County where the County would not
assume the debt but would rather enter into a lease agreement with the Banks.
He suggested legal maybe should attend. Can you make it? Call me if needed.

        Executive Compensation Plan (ECP) Revisions





Dr. Jackson:
It has come to my attention that File No. 04-240, the ECP revision
resolution/ordinance presented by Human Resources and approved by the County
Board in the Fall of 2004, is not being fully administered.
As you know, this resolution created the Executive Director (1, 2 & 3) level
positions and identified a significant number of remaining ECP positions that
were envisioned to be placed back into the classified service after a DHR
review. The resolution, however, was not specific as to when the DHR review
would occur.
It is my understanding that the Parks Department is now seeking to fill the
vacant position of Budget Manager (Title Code 79710). This position was
identified in the 2004 DHR ECP report as being vacant. It was subsequently
filled and is now vacant again. It would seem to be a logical time for the
review as envisioned as part of the ECP restructuring. Understandably, Parks
officials wish to fill this position without delay so as to avoid disruption in
the budget preparation process.
Moreover, this position was identified by DAS as being a "key fiscal position"
per County Board Resolution 04-276. Supervisors were concerned about the
credentials of key fiscal personnel throughout the County due, in part, to
several instances of departments failing to accurately project looming budget
deficits. Having the Budget Manager position in the classified service, as was
planned over two years ago, would help ensure that the successful candidate is
selected on a merit based process.
While I highlight the Budget Manager position, it is my understanding that
other ECP positions are in a similar "limbo" as this one. I realize that your
CArcher_Email3011342

staff is burdened with other pressing responsibilities, but I believe these ECP
position reviews should not be further delayed, especially if the position is
currently vacant.

DC 48
Tuesday, March 06, 2007 1:19:54 PM

Where are we at on the DC48 budget transfer and determining how short we will
be. Once we conclude that, I need to know how many DC 48 positions we have to
hold vacant to make up the hole. You will see from the below I am under
pressure to free up at least a few of the houskeeping positions. IF we cannot
fill the hole by holding vacant DC 48 positions then I guess we will need to
move to a full scale county corrective action plan. I anxiously await the
conclusion of your analysis. I do realize that you have been pulled off this
for several days to resolve the fiscal problems in economic development, but I
wanted to check in see how this was going. Thank.s

        Re: late arrival today





Hope you feel better, Cindy. One thing I forgot to tell you yesterday -- the
Exec met with the Chief Judge and representatives of the DA's office for one of
his monthly meetings yesterday, and the issue of Courthouse cleanliness came
up. Scott said we were in the process of filling some of the housekeeping
positions and created the impression that the new hires would be in place very
soon. I know that was your plan but did not know whether you had actually
communicated a number yet to George Torres and whether this was indeed in the
works (I thought we were going to wait until you had a better idea of the
overall budget picture). I just wanted to let you know this is what he is
saying.

CMO surplus -- 2006 year end
Wednesday, March 07, 2007 6:19:09 PM

Related to the 2006 year-end, Walker asked if we have taken all the surplus we
can related to the CMO. It is clear his desire is to do whatever we can to
ensure 2006 balances. I will talk to you in AM. Also, do I recall that aging
will have a surplus in 2006? Have we counted that? Also my notes indicate
that Rob said DHFS is expecting around $4.0 million surplus. I assume we are
counting this. Lastly, have we got an updated estimate on interest and
penalties? I know I am reaching here, but these are the things that come to
mind. Obviously, the hit on ED deficit will be less the closer we are to
balance. In terms of ED, I assume we put them through their paces to be sure
they have drawn all the federal revenue they can -- correct?
On another note, I told Rob what you said about if we put the hammer down now
for 2007 we will be more likely to make it. He agreed.
Thanks for all your help. I don't know what I would do without you.

Before George does all this work, do you know if the below is coming from
Walker? Did it come up in parks status meeting or is this just Sue being Sue?
Based on George's summary below, I would not authorize this until we know the
cost ramifications and how those cost will be covered likely from other
projects. Given the workload constraints of A/E I would also need to know the
reasoning behind the accelerated timeframe. I think this project was scheduled
for completion in 2009 with planning done in 2007.

Good Morning,
        Just wanted to give you a heads up. I received a call from Sue Black
on Wednesday "telling" me that the Lincoln Aquatic Center is now a hot rush
project that needs to happen. She mentioned that everyone (?) would like to see
this happen by June 2008. Please be advised that the project has not been
budgeted for such a schedule. Per A&E's conversations with Mr. Keegan, it is
our understanding, that Parks will deal with the fiscal end of this problem
(see below). However, everyone should be aware that this now puts additional
strain on an already stretched division and that proceeding at an accelerated
clip will probably result in an increase in the cost of this project. If indeed
this is what we are to do, then I would request clearance from DAS to do so.
Ms. Black prefaced her instructions by saying that "we (A&E) always make a
bigger deal out of project, than they really are and are never on budget".
Someone made an observation during the last budget hearings that "pools built
by Milwaukee County cost more than other comparable projects around the
country". Be advised that "Cool Waters", which was also an accelerated project
and did cost more for that very reason.
        We anticipate that this project will be contracted out and managed by
an outside consultant because of the current workload and staffing situation.
A&E has requested that the consultant advise of the additional cost to
CArcher_Email3011362

accelerate this project to meet the June 8, 2008 deadline. Once we receive that
information, we will be providing an updated project scope, timeline, updated
cost, budget requirements, and feasibility of meeting a June, 2008 deadline.
Obviously. we will do everything possible to make this happen, we just to
advise everyone of the potential hurdles. We look forward to hearing from you.
Regards,
George

Jim,
Rather than a meeting I will work up an accelerated schedule as we discuss for
your review. I'll plan to include the accelerated schedule in an addendum to
the RFP asking the consultant to identify the cost associated with accelerating
the schedule, what elements of the design process would need to be dropped, etc.
Minor point - under as accelerated schedule, a fund transfer would need to be
processed changing the schedule and identifying construction funding for 2007
(or at least half of the construction funding - cash flow). Any idea where the
money will come from?

allocation of fringe benefits. Comments, edits, suggestions, whatever are
welcome.
Rob, I've sent this to you since, technically, the amendment named the DAS
Director as the point of contact. (I've attached a copy of the budget
amendment as well.) I believe we were "in between" Directors at the time of
our meeting.
Thanks.

DRAFT
COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
Interoffice Memorandum

DATE:

March 12, 2007

TO:

Supervisor Richard D. Nyklewicz Jr., Chairman, Committee on Finance and Audit
Supervisor James “Luigi” Schmitt, Chairman, Committee on Personnel

FROM:

Employee Fringe Benefits Cost Allocation Work Group
Prepared by: Steve Cady, Fiscal and Budget Analyst, County Board

SUBJECT:

2007 Adopted Budget Amendment (1C004) – Allocation of Fringe Benefit Costs

REQUEST
The 2007 Adopted Budget included an amendment directing County Board and
Department of Audit staff, working in consultation with the Controller and Director,
Department of Administrative Services, to study alternative options to allocate fringe
benefit costs to departmental budgets. The study is to include, but is not limited to,
exploration of options to quantify and allocate actual fringe benefit costs of active
employees from inactive or retired employees. A staff report is to be submitted to the
Committees on Finance and Audit and Personnel for consideration at their March 2007
meetings, with the goal of implementing any subsequent new policy on the allocation and
presentation of fringe benefit costs prior to the 2008 budget process.
BACKGROUND
Employee fringe benefit costs include health, dental and life insurance, pension
contributions (including annuity, OBRA, and United Regional Medical Services pension
contributions related to the John L. Doyne Hospital closure), Medicare reimbursement to
eligible retirees, transit passes, and consultant fees related to the operation of these
programs. All of these costs are itemized in Org. Unit 1950 – Employee Fringe Benefits.
Prior to the 2007 Budget, fringe benefits were allocated to departmental budgets based on
a percentage of salary method. By dividing total fringe benefit costs, which include
expenditures for active, inactive and retired employees, by the County payroll, a fringe
benefit percentage was determined. This percentage was then applied to each fringe
benefit eligible position based on its salary amount. This excludes seasonal and part-time
employees. The fringe benefit percentage rose to approximately 78% of salaries in 2006
due to rising fringe benefit costs and fewer positions in which to allocate the costs.
For the preparation of the 2007 Recommended Budget, the Department of Administrative
Services instead chose to allocate fringe benefit costs based on a fixed dollar amount per
position, regardless of the salary. For 2007, this amount is budgeted at $37,334 per
position. This fixed dollar approach was adopted in part to recognize that much of the
costs that are allocated to positions are not determined by the salary amount. For

example, health care expenses for a low wage employee can cost the county as much or
more as those for a high wage employee. Indeed, direct health care expenditures, which
include costs for retirees, are approximately 70% of the total anticipated 2007 fringe
benefit budget. Pension related costs, on the other hand, are related to an individual’s
salary and may be more appropriately allocated based on a percentage of salary method.
Still, the majority of the fringe benefit expenses are health care related, which influenced
the decision by DAS-Fiscal Affairs to switch to a flat dollar fringe benefit allocation.
During its deliberations on the 2007 Recommended Budget, members of the Committee
on Finance and Audit expressed concerns about the change from a percentage to a flat
dollar amount to allocate anticipated fringe benefit costs. These concerns included the
belief that the change adversely impacted departments that have average salaries that are
less than the countywide average; thus they carried a greater share of the retiree cost
burden. Moreover, the fringe benefit cost allocation, whether presented as a flat dollar or
salary percentage method, did not allow policymakers to decipher the true fringe benefit
cost for an active employee versus the amount that was allocated to each position for
liabilities associated with retired employees. As such, this made it difficult to quantify
actual costs associated with position restorations or the true value of several privatization
initiatives included in the Recommended Budget. Policymakers noted the prohibitive cost
of restoring positions and pointed out that, even if positions are privatized the retiree costs
would remain a County liability and simply be spread over fewer employees, resulting in a
higher fringe benefit allocation per employee in the future.
An analysis in the Fall of 2006 by the Department of Audit to calculate a fringe benefit
rate for active employees resulted in a fringe benefit rate for post-1993 hires at
approximately 39%, or about half of the 78% fringe percentage rate that was anticipated
prior to the submission of the 2007 Recommended Budget. (Post-1993 hires are not
eligible for lifetime health insurance and, in the event of staffing reductions, would most
likely be laid off based on seniority provisions in union contracts)
DISCUSSION
The allocation of fringe benefit costs must be done in a way that is consistent with
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and maximizes the County’s ability to
recover outside revenues to offset these costs. With these guiding principles, the
Employee Fringe Benefits Cost Allocation Work Group (“Work Group”) explored various
alternatives to allocate and present fringe benefit costs beginning with the 2008
Recommended Budget. It was determined that the Budget Reporting and Analysis
Support System (BRASS) could allocate health and pension costs separately. Pension
costs could be allocated using a percentage of salary method and health care (including
dental, life insurance and other costs previously mentioned) could be allocated on the
basis of a flat dollar amount. This hybrid allocation approach would include all retiree
costs and be consistent with GAAP standards. In addition, it would ensure that all
allowable outside revenues would be captured so as not to result in a revenue loss to the
County.

To help address the presentation of fringe benefit costs, it was agreed that the Org. 1950 –
Employee Fringe Benefits budget narrative could include a table that attempts to
determine a fringe benefit rate (expressed as a flat dollar and percentage of salary amount)
for active employees. Based on health care claims data, pension actuarial reports, etc., it
is possible to calculate the approximate portion of the fringe benefit budget that is
generated by active employees from the amount that is obligated by inactive and retired
employees. The Department of Audit and the Controller will work together to develop a
mutually agreeable template that can be presented beginning with the 2008 Recommended
Budget. This should provide meaningful data to policymakers about actual fringe benefit
costs for active employees and help provide context for future staffing decisions.
RECOMMENDATION
Based upon the foregoing, the Employee Fringe Benefits Cost Allocation Work Group
recommends that, beginning with the 2008 Recommended Budget, Milwaukee County
allocate fringe benefit costs to departmental budgets based on a hybrid approach. Health
care expenditures (actives and retirees), dental and life insurance, Medicare
reimbursement, transit passes, and consultant fees will be allocated on a flat dollar amount
to each benefit eligible position. Pension expenditures, including annuity, OBRA, and
United Regional Medical Services contributions related to the John L. Doyne Hospital
closure, will be allocated to each benefit eligible position based on a percentage of salary
method.
The Department of Audit will work with the Controller to develop a mutually agreeable
template that attempts to determine a fringe benefit rate (expressed as a flat dollar and
percentage of salary amount) for active employees. This information will be included in
the Org. 1950 – Employee Fringe Benefits budget narrative.

By Supervisors Nyklewicz, Mayo, McCue, Broderick, West, Coggs-Jones, and Johnson

To amend the County Executive’s 2007 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit No. 1950 –
Employee Fringe Benefits, by inserting the following narrative language on page 1950-1,
following the budget summary table:

The 2007 Adopted Budget reflects a change in the methodology in which fringe
benefit costs are allocated to departmental budgets. In prior years these costs,
which include health and life insurance and retirement benefits for both active and
inactive (including retirees) employees were allocated to departments as a
percentage of salaries. For 2007, the County Executive’s Recommended Budget
converted the fringe benefit percentage rate to a fixed lump sum dollar amount
for each benefit eligible position WITHOUT COUNTY BOARD INPUT OR POLICY
REVIEW. In addition to the concerns about the equity of such an approach, it also
distorts the amount of actual fringe benefit compensation that an active employee
receives. The Department of Audit recently calculated the actual fringe benefit
rate for post-1993 hires (not eligible for paid retiree health insurance) as
approximately 38% of salary costs. The 2007 Recommended Budget includes a
lump-sum dollar amount that, if converted to a percentage of salaries, is
approximately 78%. The difference is primarily due to the fringe benefit costs for
inactive and retired employees that are allocated to the current workforce.

Primarily because of crosscharges and related revenues, a modification to this new
methodology of allocating fringe benefit costs would be complex once the base budget
is constructed. Therefore, it is recognized that any new policy should be enacted at the
beginning of a new budget year.

CArcher_Email3011374

to reconcile the contract settlement, among other things, but we could really
use your help. As you can see from the e-mail below, we are encountering some
real staffing problems at Facilities. The concern we have is that we are
having a tough time putting bodies in positions and we've not even hit vacation
time yet. For example,we have had to shut down some screening locations at the
Courthouse because of a lack of bodies, which then causes longer lines and more
complaints. As you can see, the list is pretty sizable and it doesn't even
take into account the employees that are scheduled off for vacation or call in
sick. Any insight you could provide us would be greatly appreciated. We just
need to know, so we can react accordingly and come up with a plan to advise
staff on how we will proceed. Thanks in advance for your help.

Per our conversation today here is what I have vacant and waiting to fill:
12- Fac. Worker IV (another one quit last Friday and there are six out on FMLA
or Injury). Awaiting DAS approval
7 - Fac. Worker Security ( another one retired at the end of Feb. and two out
on FMLA) Was asked by DAS to wait on filling until DC 48 contract info was
worked out.
10-Fac. Worker Security (Hourly) Was asked by DAS to fill only emergency
amount, until DC 48 contract info was worked out. Five positions were requested
and was told DAS approved those five, but was told that HR is unaware of the
Cert Request being approved.
12 - Maintenance Tech (the old Fac. Worker-Hourly positions) Was told by DAS a
month ago, that all of these positions were approved to fill, HR is still
working on an announcement. (HR item)
2 - Plumber positions that needs to be filled, but waiting on other positions
with a higher priority.
1 - Elec Mechanic position that needs to be filled, but waiting on other
positions with a higher priority.
1 - Elec Mechanic Supervisor position that need to be filled, but waiting on
other positions with a higher priority.
Let me know your thoughts.

The above five were approved by me on 2/22. Kat logged it out as sent to HR.
We will walk another copy to HR right now. If there is an immediate need for
addtional hourly security positions please send them over now. I had asked
Jack to keep me apprised of any security concerns.
We also show that we have approved 12 maintenance tech hourly for meals
delivery.
I remain reluctant to fill full time positions until we have a funding
strategy. Our analysis indicates we do not have enough money when all is said
and done to fill these positions. This is something I need to talk to Scott
and Rob on. Approving them without a funding stategey makes me uncomfortable.
We will talk to Soctt tomorrow when we talk about other 2007 issues.

I need to know if the Exec agreed to expedite this project because it is not
budgeted for in the capital program. We budgeted about $1.1 million for
planning and design in 2007-- actual construction $ were to be included in the
2008 capital budget. If this moves ahead, Sue will need to id an project that
is not going move ahead. I also am concerned that this project was not
approved for construction in 2007 by the Board and changing projects might
require Board approval. Is this something Walker wants to push?

Before George does all this work, do you know if the below is coming from
Walker? Did it come up in parks status meeting or is this just Sue being Sue?
Based on George's summary below, I would not authorize this until we know the
cost ramifications and how those cost will be covered likely from other
projects. Given the workload constraints of A/E I would also need to know the
reasoning behind the accelerated timeframe. I think this project was scheduled
for completion in 2009 with planning done in 2007.

Good Morning,
        Just wanted to give you a heads up. I received a call from Sue Black
on Wednesday "telling" me that the Lincoln Aquatic Center is now a hot rush
project that needs to happen. She mentioned that everyone (?) would like to see
this happen by June 2008. Please be advised that the project has not been
budgeted for such a schedule. Per A&E's conversations with Mr. Keegan, it is
our understanding, that Parks will deal with the fiscal end of this problem
(see below). However, everyone should be aware that this now puts additional
strain on an already stretched division and that proceeding at an accelerated
clip will probably result in an increase in the cost of this project. If indeed
this is what we are to do, then I would request clearance from DAS to do so.
Ms. Black prefaced her instructions by saying that "we (A&E) always make a
bigger deal out of project, than they really are and are never on budget".
CArcher_Email3011380

Someone made an observation during the last budget hearings that "pools built
by Milwaukee County cost more than other comparable projects around the
country". Be advised that "Cool Waters", which was also an accelerated project
and did cost more for that very reason.
        We anticipate that this project will be contracted out and managed by
an outside consultant because of the current workload and staffing situation.
A&E has requested that the consultant advise of the additional cost to
accelerate this project to meet the June 8, 2008 deadline. Once we receive that
information, we will be providing an updated project scope, timeline, updated
cost, budget requirements, and feasibility of meeting a June, 2008 deadline.
Obviously. we will do everything possible to make this happen, we just to
advise everyone of the potential hurdles. We look forward to hearing from you.
Regards,
George

Jim,
Rather than a meeting I will work up an accelerated schedule as we discuss for
your review. I'll plan to include the accelerated schedule in an addendum to
the RFP asking the consultant to identify the cost associated with accelerating
the schedule, what elements of the design process would need to be dropped, etc.
Minor point - under as accelerated schedule, a fund transfer would need to be
processed changing the schedule and identifying construction funding for 2007
(or at least half of the construction funding - cash flow). Any idea where the
money will come from?

Fiscal update 2006 and 2007
Wednesday, March 14, 2007 8:43:02 AM

We are currently estimating a surplus at year-end 2006 closing. We will report
to the Board our estimate of approx. $2.0 million. This projection INCLUDES
the ecomonic development/housing deficit. The number may be higher, but we
have not made all final entries so we are being conservative at this point.
This is very good news.
We project a $1.9 shortfall related to DC48 and full funding of DC 48 positions
that were not funded in the 2007 budget. We are currently looking at options
that include contininuting to hold some positions vacant (primarily in parks
and FM). There are other pressures in 2007. I have not ruled out a corrective
action plan. I will let you know our conclusions as soon as we progress.

The below did not come from Scott. If the project proceeds as planned with the
construction $ bonded for in 2008, when would you foresee conclusion?

(My understanding is that you only have planning $ for this in 2007 with
construction $ yet to be approved via the 2008 budget process -- correct?)

Good Morning Cindy,
        Did you ever hear anything else about this item? A&E has requested a
revised schedule from our consultant. We just need to know, so we can start
planning accordingly. Any insight you can provide would be appreciated.

Before George does all this work, do you know if the below is coming from
Walker? Did it come up in parks status meeting or is this just Sue being Sue?
Based on George's summary below, I would not authorize this until we know the
cost ramifications and how those cost will be covered likely from other
projects. Given the workload constraints of A/E I would also need to know the
reasoning behind the accelerated timeframe. I think this project was scheduled
for completion in 2009 with planning done in 2007.

Good Morning,
        Just wanted to give you a heads up. I received a call from Sue Black
on Wednesday "telling" me that the Lincoln Aquatic Center is now a hot rush
project that needs to happen. She mentioned that everyone (?) would like to see
this happen by June 2008. Please be advised that the project has not been
budgeted for such a schedule. Per A&E's conversations with Mr. Keegan, it is
our understanding, that Parks will deal with the fiscal end of this problem
(see below). However, everyone should be aware that this now puts additional
strain on an already stretched division and that proceeding at an accelerated
clip will probably result in an increase in the cost of this project. If indeed
this is what we are to do, then I would request clearance from DAS to do so.
Ms. Black prefaced her instructions by saying that "we (A&E) always make a
bigger deal out of project, than they really are and are never on budget".
Someone made an observation during the last budget hearings that "pools built
CArcher_Email3011386

by Milwaukee County cost more than other comparable projects around the
country". Be advised that "Cool Waters", which was also an accelerated project
and did cost more for that very reason.
        We anticipate that this project will be contracted out and managed by
an outside consultant because of the current workload and staffing situation.
A&E has requested that the consultant advise of the additional cost to
accelerate this project to meet the June 8, 2008 deadline. Once we receive that
information, we will be providing an updated project scope, timeline, updated
cost, budget requirements, and feasibility of meeting a June, 2008 deadline.
Obviously. we will do everything possible to make this happen, we just to
advise everyone of the potential hurdles. We look forward to hearing from you.
Regards,
George

Jim,
Rather than a meeting I will work up an accelerated schedule as we discuss for
your review. I'll plan to include the accelerated schedule in an addendum to
the RFP asking the consultant to identify the cost associated with accelerating
the schedule, what elements of the design process would need to be dropped, etc.
Minor point - under as accelerated schedule, a fund transfer would need to be
processed changing the schedule and identifying construction funding for 2007
(or at least half of the construction funding - cash flow). Any idea where the
money will come from?

Doesn't the public endorsement of the sales tax put the MPM on the Board's side
and against our boss? Why would we want them to do this???
Otherwise I like the idea, but I suspect Walker will be the one ultimately
proposing it (and not the Board) so I remain concerned about the sales tax
comment.

I know you all met this morning with the bosses and for that I am appreciative.
First, I do consider the debt assumption idea off the table and I understand
clearly from Terry as to why. Allow me to make one more run at the building. I
thank you all for the level annual support and the $4 M over five years for
capital.
I propose for MPM to match your $4 M over 5 years with $4 M of charitable
dollars over the same period. If we are successful then the ownership would
convert to MPM at the end of the match period. I would want this memorialized
and not left as you'll consider at that time. As a show of good faith on our
part now, I will find a way to cut $100,000 from our 07 budget to better align
us with the attendance. Recognize, there are some major union restrictions here
but that will be my problem. MPM would be willing to have a clause in the
agreement that we would not use the building as collateral for any future loan
without county approval. You woudl effectively have veto power. As a final
upper, I can get the MPM board to publicly endorse a sales tax for cultural
institutions. I know Jim this doesn't do anything for you but I know it will
help significantly with a number of supervisors.
There is movement from Chase but not yet enough. Please let me know your
thoughts ASAP.

Alex, I have reviewed the paper and it looks very good. I have only a few
suggested edits. Please see the questions I pose in the attached.

Rob, because you are short on time, I forward you the recommendation to start
looking at. I will be in shortly with the paper itself. We are propsoing to
not prepare actual budget transfer docuements because it would be hundreds of
pages (according to staff). Manske says sometimes we just ask the Board to
authorize us to make the adjustments without the paper transfer documents.
That is what we are proposing here.

RECOMMENDED BUDGET ADJUSTMENTS
Authorize DAS to proceed with the above described budget adjustments related to fullyfunding of the AFCSME DC 48 wage settlement and non-represented wage adjustments
resulting in an increase in salary and social security costs of $7,035,716 and the above
noted adjustments to fringe benefit accounts resulting in a savings of $8,042,307.
Direct affected to departments to submit a plan to DAS and County Board staff for filling
only the most critical vacancies related to positions restored but not fully-funded during
the budget process. Authorize DAS and County Board staff to approve or modify plans
for the immediate filling of critical vacancies. Require DAS in conjunction with County
Board staff to report to the Audit and Finance Committee positions approved for filling
and the corresponding fiscal impact.
As noted above, full-funding of all restored positions would result in a projected budget
shortfall of approximately $2.5 million. Full-funding of only the currently filled
positions would result in a projected 2007 budget shortfall of approximately $300,000.
Discussions with departments indicate that at least a portion of the currently vacant
positions must be filled to fulfill programmatic responsibilities and that further delay will
materially impact program services.

Questions to staff:
When you calculated the cost of filling vacancies, over what time period (how many
months) did you assume they were filled?
If we leave positions vacant, is it our intent to reduce the amount of funds for the wage
increases or is it material?
Rob, after reading the paper, I am not sure this is the place where I would bring up 2007
funding pressures. I may need to write a short stand-alone paper on this issue. That is
what I am thinking.

I agree with your assessment entirely. The problem was getting Scott to quit
analyzing so budget staff could write the report. While I was very insistent
on this with him, I have now learned that next time I will need to be more
forceful with him. In that regard, I take responsibility for the lateness of

Cindy/Alex:
Attached is a draft of the corrective action section for the ECD deficit
report. Please add this to your latest version and let me know of any
suggested changes. I have a meeting at City Campus at 8:00 but should be back
in the office by 9:00 or so. If things are not much further along on the
overall report, I would like to meet with the two of you and Chad immediately.
I sense that we are working too hard to analyze the deficit when we are really
not equipped to do so yet. In my mind the report should just lay out the facts
and some of the suspected causes but acknowledge that considerable additional
work on this needs to be done.

Corrective Action Plan
While DAS has done considerable work to attempt to identify the size of the 2006
Economic and Community Development Division deficit, the Department has not yet had
the opportunity to fully identify, report and address the various factors that caused this
deficit. In order to conduct this analysis, and in order to ensure that corrective actions are
implemented as quickly as possible so that similar problems do not emerge in 2007, DAS
plans to undertake two immediate actions:
1. A request already has been made to the Chairman of the County Board of Supervisors
and the Chairman of the Committee on Finance and Audit to direct the Department of
Audit to analyze and report on the causes of the 2006 ECD deficit. DAS is extremely
appreciative that this request has been granted and that the Audit review already has
been initiated. DAS will immediately pursue permanent corrections to causes
identified in the Audit Department analysis. All corrective actions will be reported to
the County Board and tracked with milestones and dates of completion.
2. Outside accounting expertise will be brought in to assist DAS-Fiscal and ECD staff in
performing a final reconciliation of 2006 expenditures and revenues, and to assess the
current state of the Division’s fiscal affairs and immediately identify and implement
improved accounting standards, policies and procedures. The decision to pursue
outside accounting expertise is based on the need for a full-time, experienced
accountant who can analyze and identify existing problems and establish a proper
accounting framework within the Division to prevent similar problems in the future.
The Division does not currently possess an accounting position, and the DAS-Fiscal
Affairs Division does not have the capacity to provide full-time accounting assistance
to the Division in light of other critical demands, including the countywide close for
2006.
DAS has approached the accounting firm of Hoppe and Orendorff to provide this
outside accounting expertise. This firm has been selected in light of its considerable
experience with governmental accounting and its outstanding work in performing a
similar mission for the Department on Aging Care Management Organization after
fiscal problems surfaced in that department in 2004. In light of the need for
immediate accounting assistance in order to address potential 2007 fiscal problems
early in the year, DAS intends to award this contract on a sole source basis. It is
anticipated that this would be a limited engagement contract for a period of four to six
months, so the contract is unlikely to exceed $50,000, and County Board approval
will not be required. During this limited engagement period, DAS will evaluate
options for providing permanent accounting and/or fiscal expertise in the Economic
and Community Development Division and will submit recommendations to the
County Board later this year.
It is hoped and anticipated that these two actions will enable the Division to re-establish a
solid fiscal framework in the near-term, and ultimately will lead to implementation of

Cindy/Alex:
Attached is a draft of the corrective action section for the ECD deficit
report. Please add this to your latest version and let me know of any
suggested changes. I have a meeting at City Campus at 8:00 but should be back
in the office by 9:00 or so. If things are not much further along on the
overall report, I would like to meet with the two of you and Chad immediately.
I sense that we are working too hard to analyze the deficit when we are really
not equipped to do so yet. In my mind the report should just lay out the facts
and some of the suspected causes but acknowledge that considerable additional
work on this needs to be done.

Corrective Action Plan
While DAS has done considerable work to attempt to identify the size of the 2006
Economic and Community Development Division deficit, the Department has not yet had
the opportunity to fully identify, report and address the various factors that caused this
deficit. In order to conduct this analysis, and in order to ensure that corrective actions are
implemented as quickly as possible so that similar problems do not emerge in 2007, DAS
plans to undertake two immediate actions:
1. A request already has been made to the Chairman of the County Board of Supervisors
and the Chairman of the Committee on Finance and Audit to direct the Department of
Audit to analyze and report on the causes of the 2006 ECD deficit. DAS is extremely
appreciative that this request has been granted and that the Audit review already has
been initiated. DAS will immediately pursue permanent corrections to causes
identified in the Audit Department analysis. All corrective actions will be reported to
the County Board and tracked with milestones and dates of completion.
2. Outside accounting expertise will be brought in to assist DAS-Fiscal and ECD staff in
performing a final reconciliation of 2006 expenditures and revenues, and to assess the
current state of the Division’s fiscal affairs and immediately identify and implement
improved accounting standards, policies and procedures. The decision to pursue
outside accounting expertise is based on the need for a full-time, experienced
accountant who can analyze and identify existing problems and establish a proper
accounting framework within the Division to prevent similar problems in the future.
The Division does not currently possess an accounting position, and the DAS-Fiscal
Affairs Division does not have the capacity to provide full-time accounting assistance
to the Division in light of other critical demands, including the countywide close for
2006.
DAS has approached the accounting firm of Hoppe and Orendorff to provide this
outside accounting expertise. This firm has been selected in light of its considerable
experience with governmental accounting and its outstanding work in performing a
similar mission for the Department on Aging Care Management Organization after
fiscal problems surfaced in that department in 2004. In light of the need for
immediate accounting assistance in order to address potential 2007 fiscal problems
early in the year, DAS intends to award this contract on a sole source basis. It is
anticipated that this would be a limited engagement contract for a period of four to six
months, so the contract is unlikely to exceed $50,000, and County Board approval
will not be required. During this limited engagement period, DAS will evaluate
options for providing permanent accounting and/or fiscal expertise in the Economic
and Community Development Division and will submit recommendations to the
County Board later this year.

I know you all met this morning with the bosses and for that I am appreciative.
First, I do consider the debt assumption idea off the table and I understand

thank you all for the level annual support and the $4 M over five years for
capital.
I propose for MPM to match your $4 M over 5 years with $4 M of charitable
dollars over the same period. If we are successful then the ownership would
convert to MPM at the end of the match period. I would want this memorialized
and not left as you'll consider at that time. As a show of good faith on our
part now, I will find a way to cut $100,000 from our 07 budget to better align
us with the attendance. Recognize, there are some major union restrictions here
but that will be my problem. MPM would be willing to have a clause in the
agreement that we would not use the building as collateral for any future loan
without county approval. You woudl effectively have veto power. As a final
upper, I can get the MPM board to publicly endorse a sales tax for cultural
institutions. I know Jim this doesn't do anything for you but I know it will
help significantly with a number of supervisors.

DRAFT
COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
INTEROFFICE COMMUNICATION

DATE

: March 15, 2007

TO

: Supervisor Lee Holloway, Chairman, County Board of Supervisors
Supervisor Richard D. Nyklewicz, Jr., Chairman, Finance & Audit Committee

FROM

: Rob Henken, Director, Department of Administrative Services

SUBJECT : 2007 Budget Adjustments for Employee Fringe Benefits, AFCSME District Council 48
Collective Bargaining Agreement, Non-Represented Wage and Health Care, DC 48
Position Funding and Associated Revenues

POLICY ISSUE
This report and accompanying resolution seeks to address several 2007 Budget adjustments
including: Employee Fringe Benefits (Org. Unit 1950), County-Wide Employee Fringe Benefits
(Object 5401), AFCSME District Council 48 (DC 48) labor contract settlement, funding of certain
DC 48 positions, Non-Represented (NR) wage and health care, and associated revenue effects.

BACKGROUND
A labor agreement was reached between the County and DC 48 in January 2007. A joint session
of the Finance and Audit and Personnel Committees approved the DC 48 agreement on January
30, 2007, with subsequent full County Board approval on February 1, 2007, under file 07-96.
The settlement includes salary increases, a lump sum bonus payment and health care
adjustments that were not included in the 2007 Budget because the contract had not been settled
at the time of budget adoption. Adjustments to the 2007 Budget are required to fund the wage
increases and reflect the fringe benefit savings associated with the DC 48 contract.
As a result of the collective bargaining agreement, the DC 48 positions previously slated for
layoff on December 15, 2006, were restored but are not fully funded in the 2007 Budget.
Restoration of these positions will require additional funds.
After the County Board approved the DC 48 contract, a similar resolution addressing wage
increases and health care premium contribution adjustments was approved under file 07-97 for
all Non-Represented employees. Adjustments to the 2007 Budget are required to fund the NonRepresented wage increases, effective November 1, 2007.
The 2007 Budget for Employee Fringe Benefits (Org. Unit 1950) contains surplus expenditure
appropriation, as does the County-wide Employee Fringe Benefit (Object 5401) in all
departmental budgets. This is a result of the collective bargaining agreements, and increased copays, deductibles and employee contribution changes. Adjustments to the 2007 Budget are
required to reallocate fringe benefit savings.
Finally, during the 2007 budget process a technical error occurred in the BRASS budgeting
software, which only reduced salary and social security when a Personal Services Lumpsum
reduction was taken. The technical error resulted in over funding of the County-wide Employee
CArcher_Email3011414

DRAFT

Page 2

Fringe Benefits (Object 5401) and under funding of Salaries and Wages (Object 5199) and
Social Security (Object 5312). Therefore, a technical adjustment to realign Fringe Benefits,
Salaries and Wages, and Social Security is necessary.
The changes detailed above require subsequent adjustments to revenues in various departments
County-wide.

2007 BUDGET ADJUSTMENTS
AFCSME DC 48 Wage Settlement Adjustment
A budget adjustment is required to increase expenditures by $7,035,716 for salaries and social
security to reflect the cumulative impact of the retroactive wage increases from 2006, a 1
percent wage increase for November 2007, and a $250 per (eligible) employee lump sum bonus
payment. The costs associated with the DC 48 wage settlement are based on 2007 budgeted
positions.

Cost of DC 48 Position Funding Restoration
Per the Department of Administrative Services – Division of Human Resources (DAS-HR), 128
DC 48 Full-Time Equivalents (FTEs) were unfunded, abolished or Lumpsummed in the 2007
Budget. These positions were scheduled for lay-off December 15, 2006 but were restored when
the collective bargaining agreement was settled between the County and DC 48.
In Facilities Management, 72 budgeted FTEs (38 in Housekeeping and 34 in Security) were
Lumpsummed out of the 2007 Budget. This was off-set with $2,615,921 of funding previously
dedicated to contract services and $750,000 of tax levy. These dollars funded the equivalent of
52 budgeted FTEs therefore 20 FTEs remain to be funded. In the Department of Parks,
Recreation and Culture, 43 budgeted FTEs were Lumpsummed, off-set by $750,000 of tax levy.
This off-set funded the equivalent of 10 budgeted FTEs, leaving 33 FTEs to be funded. The
additional County-wide positions (13 budgeted FTEs) were either unfunded or abolished in the
2007 Budget with no funding. A budget adjustment is required to fully-fund restored DC 48
positions as noted below.
Restoration of Budgeted Positions
The salary and social security costs of restoring these positions at the budgeted level are as
follows: 1
Facilities Management- Security and Housekeeping (20 FTEs)
Department of Parks, Recreation and Culture (33 FTEs)
Other Misc. Departments (13 FTEs)
TOTAL:

$759,205
$1,295,713
$423,578
$2,478,496

Restoration of Filled Positions Only
An alternative to fully-funding all budgeted DC 48 positions is to provide sufficient funding to
cover the cost of currently filled DC 48 positions. Of the positions mentioned above, per DASHR, six are vacant in Facilities Management- Security, 11 are vacant in Facilities ManagementHousekeeping and 35 are vacant in the Department of Parks, Recreation and Culture. The
additional funds required to fully-fund only filled positions is as follows:
1

When a position is restored, Fringe Benefit adjustments must be made in departments County-wide. The overall
Fringe Benefit amount will not change but the reallocation will result in a different per FTE fringe cost and could
reduce revenue off-sets further.

Facilities Management- Security and Housekeeping (5 FTEs)
Department of Parks, Recreation and Culture
Other Misc. Departments (13 FTEs)
TOTAL:

$178,721
$0
$423,578
$602,299

The budget includes sufficient funding to cover the cost of the eight filled positions
in the Parks Department.
Non-Represented Wage Settlement Adjustment
A budgeted adjustment is required to increase expenditures by $83,943 for salaries and social
security to reflect the impact of a 1 percent wage increase in November 2007.

Employee Fringe Benefits Adjustments
Employee Fringe Benefits (Org. Unit 1950)
The first adjustment required for this budget reflects $2,500,000 of savings associated with the
adoption of employee co-pays and deductibles by DC 48 members.
The second adjustment incorporates results of health plan choices by DC 48 members and NonRepresented employees from the recent open enrollment period. This increased cost to the
County of $613,956 is based on a revised employee contribution schedule according to plan
type chosen and overall revenue estimates.
The third adjustment reflects $316,000 of savings from estimated expenditures related to
Medicare Part B reimbursement to eligible retirees and their dependents.
The three adjustments detailed above result in a net savings in Org. Unit 1950 of $2,202,044.
County-Wide Employee Fringe Benefits (Object 5401)
The County-wide Employee Fringe Benefit (Object 5401), which is charged out to all
departments, has a total 2007 Budget appropriation of $200,265,861. These expenditures have
not been reduced to $184,823,861, which is the revised 2007 estimate of the total Employee
Fringe Benefit cost for the County.
The abatement (Object 9898) contained in Employee Fringe Benefits (Org. Unit 1950) should
match the amount of fringe distributed to departments County-wide, net of revenues. The
Employee Fringe Benefit Org is a non-departmental budget where all charges are abated for a
zero tax levy impact, since the costs associated with the 1950 budget are held in each
department’s individual budget (Object 5401). To realign the Employee Fringe Benefit
abatement account to correspond with departmental 5401 charges, a reduction of $6,420,356 is
necessary in Employee Fringe Benefits (Org Unit 1950).
Technical Adjustment
This adjustment reduces County-wide Employee Fringe Benefits (Object 5401) by $3,181,581,
while increasing Salaries and Social Security by an equal amount to correct a technical error that
occurred with lumpsum entries during the budget process. Although there is no net fiscal effect,
the reduction to fringe benefits affects the additional adjustments and issues that are detailed in
this report.
CArcher_Email3011416

Page 4

The net effect of these three adjustments is a County-wide savings of $5,840.063.

Departmental Revenue Off-Set Adjustment
Departmental revenues have not been reduced to reflect the portion of expenditures that
decreased and therefore are no longer eligible for revenue off-set. The estimated decrease in
budgeted revenues County-wide totals $616,891.

CONCLUSION--RECOMMENDED BUDGET ADJUSTMENTS
1. Authorize DAS to proceed with the above described budget adjustments related
to fully-funding of the AFCSME DC 48 wage settlement and non-represented
wage adjustments resulting in an increase in salary and social security costs of
$7,035,716 and the above noted adjustments to fringe benefit accounts resulting
in a savings of $8,042,307.
2. Direct affected to departments to submit a plan to DAS and County Board staff
CArcher_Email3011417

DRAFT

Page 5

for filling only the most critical vacancies related to positions restored but not
fully-funded during the budget process. Authorize DAS and County Board staff
to approve or modify plans for the immediate filling of critical vacancies.
Require DAS in conjunction with County Board staff to report to the Audit and
Finance Committee positions approved for filling and the corresponding fiscal
impact.
As noted above, full-funding of all restored positions would result in a projected
budget shortfall of approximately $2.5 million. Full-funding of only the
currently filled positions would result in a projected 2007 budget shortfall of
approximately $300,000. Discussions with departments indicate that at least a
portion of the currently vacant positions must be filled to fulfill programmatic
responsibilities and that further delay will materially impact program services.

Lisa,

Looking to setup the budget story. Want to know if you are still open.
Wanted to focus on how it relates to Milwaukee County. Want to talk
about the work load related to the budget. How will this relate to the
people that need this service. Want to set this up for some time next
week. I've also requested an interview with Jeff Witthum.
Thanks,
Ira

RE: Loan Guarantee for PIC Building
Thursday, March 15, 2007 11:45:26 AM

I talked to Scott yesterday about this and the basic issue is that if the PIC
duties and funding moves to the City, we need to be sure this issue does not
get lost in the process. We are still guaranteeing about $600,000 in PIC loans
related to their building.

Hi Scott,
I did receive both messages. The audit was placed in the mail to your
attention yesterday.
In regards to the loan default question, no the PIC has not defaulted on
the loan for the building. We have made all monthly payments to date.

Patti Porth
In 2004, Milwaukee County made a guarantee of $1.0 million on the
Private
Industry Council facility. The guarantee was scheduled to go down by
$200,000 on each Jan 1st, starting on Jan 1, 2006. The guarantee would
not
go down if their were any defaults on the loan. Are you aware of any
defaults on the PIC loan which would have caused the guarantee not to go
down to $600,000 as of January 1, 2007?

Rob, I have reviewed this and it looks farily comprehensive. Just so you know,
the issues that have consumed staff time since I have been here includes:
Collective Bargaining -- Manske, fiscal staff and myself spent incredible about
of time costing out options during the process. In fact, Manske attending all
the bargaining sessions. This will occur again with the new labor agreements.
DC48 fiscal note -- substantial very complex excersise. (Manske/Archer)
DC48 calculations wage adjustments and retro payments -- this could not be done
by HR so Manske assumed much of the load. (Manske)
Processing DC 48 payments -- ongoing (Manske)

rather reflects my off the top of the head thoughts. The point being, is our
plate is full and we are getting to the point where we will not be able to take
on other board assignments and get our priorities done. It would be nice if
you tell staff tomorrow that you are running interferance for them with the
Board. They will respect you for that. Please do not take this as
complaining. It is not meant to be. It just seems that the majority of our
time is preparing for the next Board meeting.

FROM:

Rob Henken, Director, Department of Administrative Services

SUBJECT:

DAS REFERRALS FROM COUNTY BOARD

Since my confirmation as Department of Administrative Services (DAS) Director on March 1, I
have become aware of several directives and reports assigned to DAS-Fiscal Affairs via County
Board resolution or committee referral. These include the following:
o Guaranteed Energy Savings Performance Contracting – DAS report due in May
committee cycle summarizing projected costs and benefits.
o Green Print Initiative – DAS report (in conjunction with Parks, Transportation and Public
Work and County Board staff) due in June cycle analyzing costs and benefits of each
component of the resolution.
o Green Purchasing Task Force – report by DAS-led task force requested for February
2007 committee cycle on set of policies for development of a green purchasing program.
o Advertising and Marketing Work Group – report by DAS-led work group requested for
July 2006 committee cycle on potential for greater collaboration of marketing and
advertising efforts across County departments.
o POB Work Group – group consisting of DAS, Corporation Counsel, Department of
Audit, County Board staff and outside advisors to determine the efficacy of issuing
pension obligation bonds (report back to County Board expected prior to request for
authorization to issue POBs).
o Collections Audit Work Group – potential report by DAS-led work group due in July
2007 committee cycle on how to develop and implement a centralized collections unit
(Audit recommendation to establish this work group will be before the Finance and Audit
Committee in March 2007).
o Potential BHD Move to St. Michael Hospital – DAS-Fiscal will be a key participant in
the County Board-authorized effort to generate additional information on the potential
move of BHD to St. Michael Hospital, including additional information on potential

CArcher_Email3011430

Memo to Chairman Holloway

operating savings associated with such a move, potential financing options and costs
associated with St. Michael renovation, and fiscal analysis of an option that would
consolidate BHD staff in parts of the existing facility so that other parts might be leased
or sold.
The need to comply with these directives comes at a time when DAS-Fiscal also is consumed
with several other critical activities, including the closure of the 2006 books; work with the
Countywide audit team on the 2006 Single Audit; evaluation of the countywide fiscal
impacts of the recently negotiated AFSCME and non-rep labor agreements – as well as
potential agreements with other labor organizations – and possible preparation of a corrective
action plan to address those impacts; preparation of a bond authorizing resolution and related
documents and meetings with ratings agencies for the upcoming 2007 G.O. bond sale; and
analysis of 2008 costs to continue and preparation of 2008 Budget instructions.
This need also occurs at a time when DAS has two Fiscal and Management Analyst
vacancies and a vacant Payroll Manager position. Furthermore, it occurs at a time when
pressing fiscal problems that demand our immediate attention are arising in various areas of
County government, including the Economic and Community Development Division and the
Milwaukee Public Museum.
In light of the tremendous demand on DAS-Fiscal staff, I would like to request an
opportunity to work with County Board staff to assess and prioritize the assignments cited
above and to develop a realistic timetable for completing them. I would also like to use that
opportunity to consider whether County Board staff may be able to play a greater role in
fulfilling these assignments.
As you know, I take very seriously any and all assignments and directives from the County
Board of Supervisors. However, as the new DAS Director, I feel compelled to make an
honest and realistic assessment of our ability to comply with these directives in a timely
manner given the critical nature of the other demands facing our Department. It would be
my sincere hope to work with your staff to complete this assessment so that Supervisors can
be assured that any prioritization and/or proposed modifications to timelines or assignments
established by the County Board are based on an objective evaluation of each directive.
Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to hearing from you.

Advertising for DAS vacancies
Thursday, March 15, 2007 4:56:50 PM

We are currently recruiting for the payroll manager as noted below and will
soon be recuriting for fiscal analysts in DAS. I would like to ask that these
advertisements be posted to Wisjobs and the Current Opportunities Bulletin that
appears on the wisconsin.gov site under the Office of State Employment
Relations. Both of these sites are used extensively by local governments
within Wisconsin. I tried posting the links, but I could not get them to be
"hot" so here is how you get to them.
Go to Wisconsin.gov
Click on agencies
Select Office of State Employment Relations
Hit the jobs tab at the top of the page
You will get a page that has the hotlink to Wisjobs and the hotlink to the
Current Opportunities Bulletin. You will see that both of these have a special
section for local wisconsin government listings. These are two of the sites
that I am most familar with and ones I am aware of my peers using.
Thanks and please let me know if there is any problem with my request.

Inter-Office Communication

DATE:

March 16, 2007

TO:

Supervisor James “Luigi” Schmitt, Chairman, Personnel Committee

Rob Henken, Director, Department of Administrative Services

SUBJECT:

INFORMATIONAL REPORT FROM THE DIRECTOR, DEPARTMENT
OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES, OUTLINING THE NEED TO
DESIGN AND IMPLEMENT AN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
MODULE TO MANAGE POST-EMPLOYMENT HEALTH AND LIFE
BENEFITS

Issue
Milwaukee County currently is engaged in the design and implementation of two major
information technology systems to address human resource needs. One of those is the Ceridian
Human Resource Information System (HRIS), which is sponsored by the Department of
Administrative Services (DAS), and which will provide payroll, time and attendance, benefits
and other functions for active County employees. The other is a project sponsored by the
Employee Retirement System, under contract with Vitech, which will automate pension benefit
functions for retirees. Neither the Ceridian nor the Vitech contracts include a module to address
the administration of health care and life insurance benefits of retirees. This report is intended to
inform the Personnel Committee of the Department’s plans to address this issue.
Background
As noted above, the County currently is in the process of implementing two human resource
technology solutions for its active and retired employee populations. The County has contracted
with Ceridian for the information management of payroll and benefit services for active
employees, and the Pension Board has retained Vitech for the technology needs of the pension
system. However, neither project scope includes the administration of system is currently able
to manage health and life benefits for retired employees. As this is a critical Human Resource
function, a module must be designed and implemented for use when these new systems become
operational.
The County currently administers pension benefits for approximately 9,500 retirees. Of these,
approximately 5,900 are also provided with medical coverage, and approximately 5,400 carry
life insurance coverage. The management of the medical and life insurance benefits is
accomplished through a module called DefBen, which works in conjunction with the Genesys
system. Since the Genesys system will be retired upon implementation of the Ceridian and
Vitech solutions, it is necessary to replace the DefBen module Genyseswith an updated solution.

CArcher_Email3011435

IT Solution for Post-Employment Health/Life Benefits
Page 2

3/16/2007

When this issue was identified, the project sponsors initiated informal discussions with Ceridian
and Vitech to assess their ability to design and manage the Health and Life module, based on a
listing of program requirements. The Program Managers for the HRIS and pension benefit
projects analyzed responses received from both vendors.
An analysis of the price of each proposal showed that the Vitech solution was more costeffective. Vitech’s proposal was based on a flat fee of $345,000, which would include the design
and implementation of the module, and Vitech would not charge additional ongoing maintenance
fees beyond currently negotiated fees found in the fixed price contract for the delivery of the new
pension system.
The Ceridian solution, while only charging $65,000 for product
implementation, would charge the County approximately $248,000 in annual maintenance fees,
based on approximately 5,900 retirees receiving benefits administration at $3.50 per retiree per
month. While this is considerably less than the $8.62 being charged per month for active
employees, this annual fee makes the Ceridian solution more costly over the life of the contract.
An additional $75,000 has been identified for 2007 costs associated with consulting services for
duties such as data cleansing, development of forms, documents and letters, end user acceptance
testing, and other similar tasks. These costs would be applicable regardless of the solution
chosen.
Based on this analysis, DAS intends to seek authorization in the May County Board cycle to
contract with Vitech on a sole source basis to develop and implement the Post-Employment
Health and Life module. This approach is deemed advisable due to the fact that opening the
process to a full RFP runs the risk of adding the complexity of a third vendor and probable
additional interfaces, and could undermine solution planning efforts that are already underway.
It should be noted that while the Pension Board holds an existing contract with Vitech for the
new pension benefit system, and that contract is being funded by the Employee Retirement
System (ERS), the Corporation Counsel’s office has determined that post-employment health
and life benefits are a County responsibility, meaning the County is financially responsible for
this module. A copy of the Corporation Counsel opinion is attached to this report.
It also should be noted that because the implementation of a Vitech Health and Life solution
would likely extend the time required to complete the implementation of the new V3 pension
system (due to the increased scope of simultaneously implementing the Health and Life module),
the Pension Board would need to be notified of any such impact to the Project Work Plan.
Fiscal Impact
It will be necessary for the County to identify a means of paying the $345,000 development cost
for this module, as well as an anticipated cost of $75,000 for project-specific consulting services
in 2007, and a similar cost for project-specific consulting services in 2008. It is anticipated at
this time that a significant portion of the $345,000 development cost, as well as the 2007
consulting cost, can be covered with existing funds in DAS-Human Resources Org 1921 Human Resource and Payroll System. This is based on the fact that monies encumbered for

CArcher_Email3011436

IT Solution for Post-Employment Health/Life Benefits
Page 3

3/16/2007

2006 operating expenses associated with the Ceridian project are available due to delays in the
implementation of the Ceridian payroll and benefits system.
That portion of the cost that cannot be covered in this fashion, as well as project-specific
consulting fees that will be necessary in 2008, will need to be identified during the 2008 Budget
process. DAS will submit a fund transfer request to the County Board providing for an
appropriate payment mechanism once the Ceridian project is closer to implementation and the
precise amount of funds available in the DAS-HRHuman Resource and Payroll System budget
for the new module can be identified.
Conclusion
Based on a the fiscal analysis performed by Project Managers for the Ceridian and Vitech human
resources information technology projects, and with the advice and consent of the
Implementation Oversight Committee and Corporation Counsel, DAS plans to move forward
with a plan to secure Vitech to provide for the development and implementation of a module to
address post-employment health and life benefits. A report seeking authorization to enter into a
contract with Vitech will be submitted in the May County Board committee cycle. In addition, a
fund transfer will be submitted in an upcoming County Board cycle to cover at least a portion of
the costs associated with this module with surplus funds contained in the 2007 Budget for the
Ceridian project, and potential remaining costs would be included in the 2008 Recommended
Budget.
This report is intended for informational purposes. No action is necessary.

pending issues

Karen, thanks for meeting with me several weeks ago to disucss HR issues.
Every government I work for operates differently and calls things different
terms so I appreciate you taking the time to help me. I did get the reports I
asked for and I appreciate your staff's timely response to my request.

I am still in search of several job descriptions. As you know, the capital
finance mgr tells me she have never had a job description. Has anyone been
able to locate one on your end? Also, I am still in search of the old job
description for the deputy FABA positon that existed prior to a couple years
ago. Finally, if someone could also send me a copy of my job description and
Manske's that would be helpful.

Alex and I met with your staff yesterday to put in place a process to ensure HR
approves all personnel actions prior to them coming to Fiscal. After the
meeting I had a much better idea about your concerns because it seemed we did
not have a much of a process in place and things were getting "balled up" (that
is a technical term :). I think we made much progress. I remain committed to
ensuring that HR is the gatekeeper and decision maker on the appropriateness of
HR transactions. I think we are close to getting something in place that will
ensure this.

Next week I will be working on a reallocation for Pam as we discussed and I
would like to proceed with reclassing the Budget Unit manager to and operations
manager with some similar duties as the old deputy position. If you have a
contact in HR that can assist me as I have questions, that would be much
appreciated.

Sorry to keep bothering you. I know your plate is very full. Please know I

Rob, please see below. This is one area that I might need your assistance on
in terms of the process. Jackson tells me Pam issue is a reallocation. I will
need guidance on what is required to get this done.

Since Alex will be leaving the Budget Unit mgr positions (which remains
confidential at this point), I don't know if this is really a reclass or a
delete and re-create. I also don't know which is easier to accomplish
politically. I liked your response yesterday regarding possible recreating the
deputy. If I had my way that is exactly what I would want to do because I
think it is more accurate description of what I have in mind and because I
think I could recruit better for a deputy. However, politically I don't know
if that is feasible. I also don't want to give the Board the impression that I
am not capable of without a deputy since Steve managed without one. We can
discuss more.

I will have Alex come talk to you this morning about her decision. However,
until we work out her schedule and timing issues I am asking her to keep it
quite for now. She agreed to work full-time until we roll the budget out. The
other staff will be upset by my decision and I need time to think about it so I
do not want this to be common knowledge until Alex and I have a plan.

Karen, thanks for meeting with me several weeks ago to disucss HR issues.
Every government I work for operates differently and calls things different
terms so I appreciate you taking the time to help me. I did get the reports I
asked for and I appreciate your staff's timely response to my request.

I am still in search of several job descriptions. As you know, the capital
finance mgr tells me she have never had a job description. Has anyone been
able to locate one on your end? Also, I am still in search of the old job
description for the deputy FABA positon that existed prior to a couple years

CArcher_Email3011442

ago. Finally, if someone could also send me a copy of my job description and
Manske's that would be helpful.

Alex and I met with your staff yesterday to put in place a process to ensure HR
approves all personnel actions prior to them coming to Fiscal. After the
meeting I had a much better idea about your concerns because it seemed we did
not have a much of a process in place and things were getting "balled up" (that
is a technical term :). I think we made much progress. I remain committed to
ensuring that HR is the gatekeeper and decision maker on the appropriateness of
HR transactions. I think we are close to getting something in place that will
ensure this.

Next week I will be working on a reallocation for Pam as we discussed and I
would like to proceed with reclassing the Budget Unit manager to and operations
manager with some similar duties as the old deputy position. If you have a

Walker was out yesterday and I decided to "let the cake bake". The banks
(Abbey) withdrew their (Popp) offer for interest forgiveness for first three
years. According to Mike he felt they wanted to see more give from others.
After our meeting, I suspect the Banks are waiting for the same thing we are -for MPM to give on something. Bernatz seemed very dejected yesterday and said
they (MPM) were in meetings all day. He will call me today with an update. I
just got the feeling that MPM is finally getting they need to make some
sacrifices. Let's see how it plays out today before we go to Walker with plans
to break from the Board position. Finely knows where Walker stands. Will keep
you posted.

I know you all met this morning with the bosses and for that I am appreciative.
First, I do consider the debt assumption idea off the table and I understand
clearly from Terry as to why. Allow me to make one more run at the building. I
thank you all for the level annual support and the $4 M over five years for
capital.
I propose for MPM to match your $4 M over 5 years with $4 M of charitable
dollars over the same period. If we are successful then the ownership would
convert to MPM at the end of the match period. I would want this memorialized
and not left as you'll consider at that time. As a show of good faith on our
part now, I will find a way to cut $100,000 from our 07 budget to better align
us with the attendance. Recognize, there are some major union restrictions here
but that will be my problem. MPM would be willing to have a clause in the
agreement that we would not use the building as collateral for any future loan
without county approval. You woudl effectively have veto power. As a final
upper, I can get the MPM board to publicly endorse a sales tax for cultural
institutions. I know Jim this doesn't do anything for you but I know it will
help significantly with a number of supervisors.
There is movement from Chase but not yet enough. Please let me know your
thoughts ASAP.

Jim, after a converstation with Karen, it is now my understanding (if I
understood her correctly) that the anlayst in the budget shop are not
classified as either as FLSA-exempt or non-exempt and that the practice of
giving time and half overtime is a management decision that can be changed at
my discretion. Do you agree with this assessment?

It also my understanding that I would move these analysts up to two steps up
without Board approval. Is that correct?

The end game I am trying to accomplish is to cease the overtime practice and go
to professional time. In return, since these folks were hired with the
expectation they would get overtime, I would increase their pay a step or two
as a give back. Can this be done? If so, does it require Board approval or
just notification?

Thanks.

Cynthia: The Budget Analysts are covered by FLSA and they are not currently
declared Exempt from FLSA coverage. Because they are not Exempt they get time
and one-half for overtime.    If they were Exempted they would get overtime
under the County Ordinance. Straight time if in a pay range over 28 and time
and one-half if in a pay range under 28. The Budget Analysts have a career
ladder and I believe level 1 and 2 are under pay range 28.
In order to eliminate overtime completely, the Ordninance must be changed.
Advancing people in the range is also covered by Ordinance. One addtional step
at time of performance evaluation can be granted with approval of the Director
of Human Resourses. Other movement in the range can be made if needed to
retain the individua in County Sevice due to job offers someplace else. This
requires the approval of the Director of Human Resources. Your Department did
the advancement in the range for retention last year.

CArcher_Email3011455

The bottom line issue is needing to change the Ordinance. The Budget Analysts
are not the only "management" positions that get overtime and causes concerns
for departments. This is a global issue for the County.

would still require payment of overtime? In other words, the County policy is
to pay folks that are FLSA exempt overtime?

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
Inter-Office Communication

DATE:
TO:
FROM:
SUBJECT:

March 9, 2007
Karen Jackson, Director, DHR
Rob Henken, Director, DAS
Reclassification Request: Captial Finance Manager PR 916E to Captial
Finance Director PR 902E

Policy
Milwaukee County Ordinance 17.05 (2) describes the procedure and criteria for the submission
of reclassification requests.
Action Recommended
Reclassify Capital Finance Manager position, title code 87840, pay range 916E to Captial
Finance Director, Pay range 902 E.
Rationale
This position has not been reviewed for classification purposes in the last 10 years. Over the
years this position has grown in scope, responsibility and independences. In addition in recent
years, the Division of Fiscal Affairs has experienced significant downsizing and the realignment
of duties that has impacted this position. Finally, as the County has faced financial challenges,
the complexity and impact of the work assigned to the Capital Finance Manager has increased as
financing programs have grown more diverse and complex.
The original responsibilities of the Capital Finance Manager position was limited to capital
budgeting and the issuance of general obligation bonds. The position supervised two fiscal and
management analysts in the preparation and management of capital budgets and the monitoring
of fiscal data for the County’s capital program. The Capital Finance Manger was and continues
to be responsible for the preparation, coordination and securing of bond financings for the
County’s capital program. The position works directly with bond counsel, financial advisors and
investment bankers. The Capital Finance Manger is also responsible securing and defending the
County’s bond rating before annual meetings with the top three bond rating agencies in the
Country. Finally, this position is responsible for monitoring and projecting county-wide revenue
streams such as sales tax, state aid, tax incremental district revenue, property tax revenues and
other non-departmental revenues.
In 2000, the County undertook revenue bonding for the first time with the issuance of
approximately $84 million in revenue bonds for the Airport. Revenue bonding is far more
complex than general obligation bonding since the sale of revenue bonds is a negotiated sale
requiring direct negotiations with investment bankers and significant documentation and
monitoring of the revenues streams that secure the debt. These responsibilities are now handled

directly by the Capital Finance Manager on an annual basis. In 2003, the County undertook the
re-funding and restructuring of approximately $100 million in debt to allow for immediate cash
flow into the County operating budget of approximately $20 million. Since this was a negotiated
sale that required the analysis of multiple financing structures it was more complex than past
financing deals thus requiring the development of new skill sets for the Capital Finance Manager
that position that was responsible for managing, directing and advising policymakers on the
initiative. Similar to the projects noted above, the County is once again poised to pursue a
financing deal never performed by Milwaukee County. Currently the Capital Finance Manager
is overseeing the proposed sale of $455 million in pension obligation bonds. Once implemented
this project will consist of a complex array of financing tools including capital appreciation
bonds, interest rate swaps and variable rate bonds.

In 2003, the Division of Fiscal Affairs consisted of the Fiscal and Budget Administrator (FABA),
a Deputy FABA, the Capital Finance Manager,

Over the past several months, the DHHS Economic Support Division (ESD) has been in the
process of developing and implementing a Customer Service Section at the Marcia P. Coggs
Human Service Center. The purpose of the Customer Service Section is to enhance and maintain
efficient customer service and customer flow across the ESD programs located at the Coggs
Center. The new section is managed by the Customer Service Coordinator, and staffed with a
Case Management Supervisor, Economic Support Supervisor, and Quality Assurance
Technicians. The Administrative Assistant (Customer Relations) will complete the full
complement of staff needed for the section.
The Administrative Assistant (Customer Relations) will serve as the key staff person in charge
of communicating ESD’s customer relations strategies and programming to employees and the
general public. Communications techniques will include written brochures and materials,
waiting room videos and multi-media presentations. The position also will relate the Division’s
Operation Excellence initiative through new employee orientation, committee meetings,
publications and employee in-service training activities. In addition, it will continuously
evaluate existing practices, services and techniques for efficient customer service and make
recommendations for improvement to the Customer Service Manager. Finally, the position will
serve as liaison to the various governmental entities that interact with ESD from a customer
service perspective, including the County Board and State and Federal legislative offices.

Fiscal Impact
This position action would result in increased personal services expenditures between $1,777 for
step one to $2,420 for step five of the range. This cost is offset approximately 50% by State
revenue for a tax levy impact between $888 to $1,210 for the last five months of 2006.
In terms of total annual costs, this position action would result in increased expenditures of
$2,918 to $3,974, offset by 50% revenue for a tax levy impact of between $1,459 to $1,987 in
2007 (see attached fiscal note form).
Thank you in advance for your consideration of this request.

Hi Scott. I'm OK with the changes but would like to understand them better, as
I am concerned about the Committee jumping to the conclusion that there is no
reason not to fill all of the vacant positions because this is another $3.3
million of surplus. Could the four of us get together briefly in the morning to
discuss?

To All
I have made changes to the health report based on the revised draft from Rob
Henken. Supv Nyklewicz wanted the report to discuss the difference in cost
between the fully insured plan and self insured plan which is $1.7 million cost
of going to self insured.
In addition, he wanted to know what cost savings occurred because people
switched to HMO plans from PPO plans, or due to reduced enrollment. Reduced
enrollment is $2.5 million, and changes due to plan movement is $1.0 million.
This would be in addition to the $2.5 million for DC-48 health plan changes.
I do not know if you want these specific savings in here, but I have put a
proviso around each of the numbers.

Ms. Archer,
I contacted the State of Wisconsin today regarding your reciprocity form, they
indicated that it was processed and we should receive it in a day or two.   The
State advised if we do not receive anything by Tuesday we should notify them.
I will keep you posted. Please let me know if I can be of any further
assistance.

Rob, this is excellent. Let me check with staff because I also think fiscal
notes go directly to finance without coming to DAS. As long as we are going to
send this, I want it to cover everything. I will get back to you.

REPORTS SUBMITTED TO COMMITTEE ON FINANCE AND AUDIT

I would like to kindly request that copies of any reports submitted to the Chairman of the County
Board of Supervisors for referral to the Finance and Audit Committee, and/or any reports
submitted directly to the Committee for consideration, be provided to both me and Cynthia Archer,
the Fiscal and Budget Administrator, at the time of submission.
At Tuesday’s agenda setting meeting for the Committee on Finance and Audit, Ms. Archer and I
were asked to comment on items that we had not yet seen. By receiving copies of Finance and
Audit reports at the same time that they are submitted to the County Board, we can ensure that we
have reviewed the item and discussed with you or your staff any questions we may have so that we
can better speak to the item at the agenda setting meeting.
Thank you for your consideration.

Rob and I are trying to get a handle on things that go to finance without DAS
seeing them. I am not suggesting that we review and approve everything, I just
want to know what is being sent ahead of time. The memo covers reports but do
I recall that some fiscal notes go directly to finance without coming to DAS?
Anything else directly from departments to finance? Position actions?
transfers? I just want to be be sure his memo covers everything. Please let
me know.

Six week plan
Friday, March 23, 2007 9:48:18 AM

Pam, we need to meet to go over our major goals for next six weeks. We have
two large items that require immediate attention -- one the convening of the
POB workgroup and two the bond issue for 2007.
I see we have a special Finance Committee for Bond sale on our calendar for
May 17th. We need to meet to go over your plan for the steps and target
completion dates for each step to accomplish this. Our earlier discussion
indicated we would schedule meetings with the rating agencies in mid-April. We
need to firm up the schedule because the Executive's Office will need to block
off time now for these meetings. I would also like to go over with you soon
your outline/draft for this presentation. Please lay out a plan so we can go
over with Rob.
I will ask Kat to set something up early next week.
At a minimum, we need to call the POB workgroup members together for an
overview of POBs so folks can get this back on their radar screen. I would
like you to arrange this for sometime in the next couple weeks.
I would identify preparation of the presentation for the rating agencies and
the 2007 bond issue as the top priority right now.

Heads up in case you hear about this.
This is my effort to keep her focused on what is important. She is out all
morning with Chad at a meeting on performance contracting. I sense that Steve
use to write the presentation for rating agencies with her input. Not sure,
but based on how things operate here, I think so. I will expect her to write
up the presentation (which may be a new thing for her) for review by your and
I. At her level, she should be able to write a briefing document. In any
event, I don't want this left to the last minute as is typically done with
her. Just FYI in case she comes to you.

doyle letter pic.doc

here is a draft. I did not know how forceful or supportive you wanted to be.
Also it is only sent to the Gov with cc to Mayor. The Cudahy letter was also
sent to the Council on Workforce Investment Members with c/o Gary Denis -- I
don't know who that is. Rob asked me to draft letter to Gov. If you want
others we need to add it. Think about any other cc you want to add as well.

This is about the PIC. today is the deadline to submit letters regarding the
shift to the city. The Exec isn't going to blatantly oppose it (the Mayor has
the authority so its a moot point) but per his note below can we draft
something that puts our financial liability out there?

Governor Doyle and Council of Workforce Investment Members
c/o Gary Denis
Department of Workforce Development
201 E. Washington Ave.
P.O. 7972
Madison, WI 53707
Dear Governor Doyle and Council of Workforce Investment (CWI) Members:
I want to express my concern with the proposal submitted for your review regarding the designation of
the City of Milwaukee as a Workforce Development Area and the recommendation to re-designate the
remainder of Milwaukee County under the direction of the City of Milwaukee.
The Private Industry Council was established to foster partnership between the private and public
sectors for the purpose of helping business meet their workforce needs and helping young people and
adults find jobs and develop careers. The PIC has been an effective in meeting these objectives.
Innovative programs and clean administration are the hallmark of the PIC and therefore efforts to
de-fund and replace the PIC with a City agency raises serious concerns regarding the intent of the
Mayor’s proposal. It is my belief the PIC is a competent and forward looking organization and the
leadership at all levels of government ought to find avenues to support and bolster their work.
In conclusion, in keeping with the spirit of local partnership and regional coordination the Mayor and
County Executive ought to work together to develop solutions to the needs of business and residents.
At a time when our community is struggling with serious social and economic challenges, leadership is
measured by partnership and not advancing parochial interest. I would strongly advise the State serve
as a broker in advancing a satisfactory solution that recognizes the County Executive and Mayor as
integral leaders in workforce development and with the PIC as the agency for carrying out that
mission.
Sincerely,

Michael Cudahy

Governor James Doyle
State of Wisconsin
State Capitol
Madison, Wisconsin 53703
Dear Governor Doyle:
I want to express my general support for the designation of the City of Milwaukee as a Workforce
Development Area as proposed by Mayor Barrett.
As you move ahead with this proposal however, I would like to request that any provision to transfer
the funding associated with the existing Private Industry Council (PIC) take into consideration that
Milwaukee County is currently guaranteeing a portion of a mortgage note made to the Private Industry
Council Services, LLC in 2004 for the purchase of a building that currently houses the operations of
the PIC. The current outstanding debt associated with this note is approximately $2.6 million. Of the
$2.6 million in outstanding debt, Milwaukee County currently guarantee approximately $600,000 and
the Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority (WHEDA) guarantees approximately
$750,000. I am requesting as the State moves ahead with plans to designate the City of Milwaukee as
a Workforce Development Area that provisions are made to ensure that Milwaukee County’s potential
liability as it relates to this obligation is accounted for in the transition.
I appreciate your support in this matter.
Sincerely,

Scott Walker

        Six week plan





Pam, we need to meet to go over our major goals for next six weeks. We have
two large items that require immediate attention -- one the convening of the
POB workgroup and two the bond issue for 2007.
I see we have a special Finance Committee for Bond sale on our calendar for
May 17th. We need to meet to go over your plan for the steps and target
completion dates for each step to accomplish this. Our earlier discussion
indicated we would schedule meetings with the rating agencies in mid-April. We
need to firm up the schedule because the Executive's Office will need to block
off time now for these meetings. I would also like to go over with you soon
your outline/draft for this presentation. Please lay out a plan so we can go
over with Rob.
I will ask Kat to set something up early next week.
At a minimum, we need to call the POB workgroup members together for an
overview of POBs so folks can get this back on their radar screen. I would
like you to arrange this for sometime in the next couple weeks.
I would identify preparation of the presentation for the rating agencies and
the 2007 bond issue as the top priority right now.

High

Please email Rob the latest version of the POB language so he can prepare for
the pension study committee.
Also, Supervisor Dimitrijecvic has requested something in writing from Bond
Counsel indicating that the Bender Park project is not bondable. Please have
them draft it to you and cc me and then I will provide it to her. I assume
they can get to us by late today or in AM. Let me know.
Thanks.

fiscal staffing
Monday, March 26, 2007 12:32:28 PM

In the mix of things I think I have concluded that the best route to go is to
delete the Budget Unit manager and create an Assistant FABA. This is the
structure that existed before when we had nine analysts AND a budget unit
manager. Let me know if you object.

That is the reason I mention it. I don't how this plays into the decision
about the HR deputy.

Generally, I'm fine. I think we should run by the Exec this afternoon and make
sure he is OK with this. I also need to clue you in on the conversation I had
with Holloway this morning about my attempt to abolish the Deputy HR position,
as it may have some bearing on how we proceed with this.

Re: 2007 Recommended Budget POB Powerpoint

I am confused about why this is being sent out to the group. I know that Rob
wanted to see it but I am assuming this will be replaced with a new and revised
briefing by our new bond counsel that will take place at the first POB
workgroup meeting. In short, this is an old document and I am expecting a new
overview document from bond counsel and our financial consultant based on the
POB language that is currently before the Legislature. Were you asked by the
group to send this out? If so, for what reason? Am I missing something?

Subject: 2007 Recommended Budget POB Powerpoint
Attached is the POB powerpoint presentation that was prepared for the 2007
Finance Hearings. I don't think the document was distributed to the committee.
There was a change to the Recommended Budget, but most of the information in
the powerpoint reflects what is in the 2007 Adopted Budget.

Outstanding POB Debt
CArcher_Email3011673

7

Benefits
• The interest rate on the County's current outstanding pension
liability is reduced from 8% to approximately 6%.
• Beginning with the 2007 budget, the plan provides for a level
$6,250,000 of annual budgetary savings each year when
compared with the current repayment schedule.
• A planned stabilization fund is estimated to retire all POB’s
by 2029 (6 years earlier than the current schedule).

CArcher_Email3011674

8

Considerations
• The proposed plan anticipates changes to existing Wisconsin
State Statutes.
• The plan assumes no changes to actuarial assumptions and no
benefit enhancements. Any changes to these assumptions would
impact future liabilities.
• The proposed debt structure may be adjusted to reflect actual
market conditions at the time of debt issuance.

Micahel, I am unable to open this so please send again.

I will say that I am quite disappointed that the MPM has begun "negotiating"
with individual Board members. It was my understanding we were working through
the Exec and the Board Chair. Since I am not able to open the attached, I
don't know what you are considering as the County's position at this point. My
direction continues to come from the Exec and the Board Chair and I have kept
you updated on that direction. I am hopeful the new proposal is in line with
that direction. Please send it again. Thank you.

Cindy,
This is a new proposal we worked on over the weekend. This works financially
for MPM. We ran it by the banks yesterday but have not yet gotten their
reaction. They wanted more time to study it.
Dan and Mike Grebe met with Supervisor Nyklewicz yesterday and discussed this
plan with him. I understand he was O.K. with freezing the County subsidy at
the 2006 level or $3.5M. I also understand he was willing to rethink the issue
of the County assuming the debt. He was NOT in favor of any building ownership
transfer which this plan includes.
Take a look and we can discuss.
Thanks,

Hello - I am considering applying for the above position. I worked as a
Management Analyst, Deputy County Administrator, and as a departmental
Administrative and Personnel Officer from 1994 to 2005 in California. I now
live in Shorewood and am at home with my two children. My question is, are
any of the Milwaukee County analyst positions part time? Could they be?
Thanks a lot.

Chad, please come see me on this. Where would the funds come from Fiscal in
October? Also, keep in mind, my view about "interdepartmental" transfers is
that it is not interdepartmental if it is all withing DAS (DAS is one
department). In any event, I am not clear where funding would be available in
DAS fiscal in October. Where is this coming from???

Barry, thank you for the invitation. I too look forward to working with you
and your staff. I feel we kind of got off on the wrong foot with the issues
surrounding the recent budget transfer. Sorry about that.

I would love to come out for a visit. Let me get the 2008 Budget rolled out
and then we will set something up.

Call me anytime as you have issues or need assistance. I will put the Airport
at the top of the list for a visit.

Thanks again!

PS -- the budget transfer went to the Executive for signature this afternoon.
I expect it will be in the packet for Finance Committee on Thursday.

It was good to, finally, meet you yesterday. I look forward to working with
you.
The airport is one of the "crown jewels" of the County. The Board and
Executive take great pride in what has been accomplished here over the past
many years. The County Executive in particular has spoken publicly many times
about the necessity to continue to grow the airport to meet the economic
demands of SE Wisconsin.
Airport staff would welcome a visit by you and your team to come out to GMIA
and kick the tires. It has always been helpful and eye-opening for staff to
view what's going on and what is planned for the future. Please let me know
when good time slots would be for available to you.

I would love to come out for a visit. Let me get the 2008 Budget rolled out
and then we will set something up.

Call me anytime as you have issues or need assistance. I will put the Airport
at the top of the list for a visit.

Thanks again!

PS -- the budget transfer went to the Executive for signature this afternoon.
I expect it will be in the packet for Finance Committee on Thursday.

It was good to, finally, meet you yesterday. I look forward to working with
you.
The airport is one of the "crown jewels" of the County. The Board and
Executive take great pride in what has been accomplished here over the past
many years. The County Executive in particular has spoken publicly many times
about the necessity to continue to grow the airport to meet the economic
demands of SE Wisconsin.
Airport staff would welcome a visit by you and your team to come out to GMIA
and kick the tires. It has always been helpful and eye-opening for staff to
view what's going on and what is planned for the future. Please let me know
when good time slots would be for available to you.

Micahel, I am unable to open this so please send again.

I will say that I am quite disappointed that the MPM has begun "negotiating"
with individual Board members. It was my understanding we were working through
the Exec and the Board Chair. Since I am not able to open the attached, I
don't know what you are considering as the County's position at this point. My
direction continues to come from the Exec and the Board Chair and I have kept
you updated on that direction. I am hopeful the new proposal is in line with
that direction. Please send it again. Thank you.

Cindy,
This is a new proposal we worked on over the weekend. This works financially
for MPM. We ran it by the banks yesterday but have not yet gotten their
reaction. They wanted more time to study it.
Dan and Mike Grebe met with Supervisor Nyklewicz yesterday and discussed this
plan with him. I understand he was O.K. with freezing the County subsidy at
the 2006 level or $3.5M. I also understand he was willing to rethink the issue
of the County assuming the debt. He was NOT in favor of any building ownership
transfer which this plan includes.
Take a look and we can discuss.
Thanks,
Mike

Rob, I agree and understand your direction below. My concern was Chad's
statement that if needed addtional funds would come from Fiscal which I took to
mean my budget. Since we had not discussed this option, I did not know where
Chad was coming from. Perhaps I misunderstood his statement. Thanks for
clearing up your direction.

Subject: Re: Hope & Orendorf Contract Funding
My feeling on this is that the funds should come from the ECD budget if they
are available and if their use for this purpose will not detract from ECD's
need to secure consulting services that will help them meet their land sale
budget and/or properly run their programs. If the funds are not available in
ECD, then I would recommend that we look to Employee Benefits. We should have
a Personal Services surplus of at least $150,000 in that Division, and clean-up
of the ECD mess is my first priority for use of those funds if we need them.

Chad, please come see me on this. Where would the funds come from Fiscal in
October? Also, keep in mind, my view about "interdepartmental" transfers is
that it is not interdepartmental if it is all withing DAS (DAS is one
department). In any event, I am not clear where funding would be available in
DAS fiscal in October. Where is this coming from???

Let me know if you have trouble opening this. Cindy,
I can assure you we are not negotiating with individual supervisors. Dan is,
however, doing his best to keep key people informed and that certainly includes
the chairman of the County's Audit and Finance Committee who will be crucial
when this finally comes to a vote.
We are doing all we can to keep this moving forward. We had a long
conversation on the phone with the banks yesterday. They will give their
response to us by the end of the day today ahead of tomorrow's A/F Committee
meeting. We will keep you informed on their response.
All the best,

To clarify, when you talk about Molly Pahl (sp?), I have been assuming you are
talking about her for the Budget unit mgr. Correct? If so, I think I should
meet with her. I understand and appreciate the need to move quickly. I had a
very good feel about Vera and based on what you have said, Molly may be a good
fit. I will touch base with you today, but I think her and I should sit down
and hear from each other.

I also want you to know, even though I may seem resistant to some things, it is
probably due to feeling slighty overwhelmed by the situation. I appreciate all
of your imput and assistance in helping to come up with a solution. I really,
really do.

Hi Cindy. The Exec sent me the questions below after his one-on-one with Jim

I know Alex handles the Veterans Service Office but wanted to leave it up to

I was asked about the vets trust fund last year by Linda Seemeyer. They said
they had a trust fund. Then they said they did not have a trust fund but
wanted to create one. In January, I said I would help create a trust fund for
them by going to the County Board. I have not written up my request yet.
I last talked with them this week, and said that I would assign the job to
someone else beside me. It would be great to have a budget analyst help me
write up the request. I have documentation from the Vets in my office.

figure out the next steps in putting together appropriate documentation that we
can take to the supervisors for their consideration/vote. Can you provide

Fringe and DC 48 Resolution.doc

Below is the revised resolution reflecting actions of Finance related to
processing the salary and fringe adjustments. The motion was to approve
recommendation #1 in the report. Please note, while the Chair did not approve
recommendation # 2 related to County Board staff and DAS identifying and
approving the filling of most critical DC48 positions, it was clear from
talking to the Chair that it was the intent that the Administration would
"manage" this shortfall. The attached resoultion recognizes the potential
funding gap if all positions are filled but is silent on what actions are
required. I think this is ok because it is really an adminitrative function to
review and fill positions within the context of the 2007 budget.
Let me know if you have comments or concnerns. Thanks.

(ITEM ) 2007 Budget Adjustments for Employee Fringe Benefits, AFCSME District
Council 48 Collective Bargaining Agreement, Non-Represented Wage and
Health Care, DC 48 Position Funding and Associated Revenues
A RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, the Director, Department of Administrative Services, has
requested authorization to implement several 2007 Budget adjustments to
address several outstanding budgetary issues, including Employee Fringe
Benefits (Org. Unit 1950), County-Wide Employee Fringe Benefits (Object 5401),
AFCSME District Council 48 (DC 48) labor contract settlement, funding of certain
DC 48 positions, Non-Represented (NR) wage and health care, and associated
revenue effects; and
WHEREAS, on February 1, 2007, the County Board of Supervisors adopted
Resolution File No. 07-96, which authorized a labor agreement between the
County and DC 48; and
WHEREAS, the settlement includes salary increases, a lump sum bonus
payment and health care adjustments that were not included in the 2007
Budget because the contract had not been settled at the time of budget
adoption, and adjustments to the 2007 Budget are required to fund the wage
increases and reflect the fringe benefit savings associated with the DC 48
contract; and
WHEREAS, the DC 48 Settlement requires an increase in expenditures of
$7,035,716 to reflect the cumulative impact of the retroactive wage increases
from 2006, a one percent wage increase effective November 2007, and a $250
per (eligible) employee lump sum bonus payment; and
WHEREAS, the County Board also approved a similar package of wage
increases and health care premium contribution adjustments under File No. 0797 for all Non-Represented employees, and a budget adjustment is required to
increase expenditures by $83,943 for salaries and social security to reflect the
impact of a 1 percent wage increase in November 2007; and
WHEREAS, the budget for Employee Fringe Benefits (Org. 1950) must be
adjusted to take into account $2,500,000 of health benefits savings associated
with the adoption of employee co-pays and deductibles by DC 48 members, an
increased cost of $613,956 due to health plan choices by DC 48 members and
Non-Represented employees based on a revised employee contribution

schedule, and a savings of $316,000 from estimated expenditures related to
Medicare Part B reimbursement to eligible retirees and their dependents, for a
net total of $2,202,044 of savings; and
WHEREAS, the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) also has
identified additional budget adjustments of a technical nature in Employee
Fringe Benefits accounts that produce a net total of $5,840,063 of additional
savings; and
WHEREAS, an additional budget adjustment is required to reduce
departmental revenues by $616,891 because of reduced fringe benefit
expenditure levels that will produce smaller revenue offsets; and
WHEREAS, the net fiscal impact of the adjustments described above is a
countywide savings of $305,557, as summarized in the following table:

; and
WHEREAS, as a result of the collective bargaining agreement, the DC 48
positions previously slated for layoff on December 15, 2006, were restored, but
these positions are not fully funded in the 2007 Budget and restoration of these
positions will require additional funds; and
WHEREAS, per the DAS – Division of Human Resources (DAS-HR), 128 DC 48
Full-Time Equivalents (FTEs) were unfunded, abolished or lump summed in the
2007 Budget; and

WHEREAS, the 2007 Budget includes sufficient offsets to pay for 62 of those
FTE’s, leaving the equivalent of 66 FTE positions that would need to be funded
(20 in Facilities Management, 33 in the Department of Parks, and 13 in other
departments); and
WHEREAS, the salary and social security costs of filling these positions for
2007, assuming that all currently vacant positions are filled as of April 7, 2007, is
$1,973,367, which would be offset with the $305,557 net savings described
above, leaving a countywide negative fiscal impact of $1,667,810; and
WHEREAS, in light of this potential countywide negative fiscal impact, DAS
believes it is appropriate to consider only filling those restored and currently
vacant DC 48 positions that are critical in nature; now, therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED, that the County Board of Supervisors hereby authorizes
the Department of Administrative Services to proceed with the above described
budget adjustments related to fully funding the AFCSME DC 48 wage
settlement, Non-Represented wage adjustments, and associated revenue
adjustments resulting in an increase in costs of $7,736,550; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that DAS is hereby authorized to execute the
fringe benefit adjustments detailed above resulting in a savings of $8,042,307;
and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the County Board of Supervisors hereby
authorizes and directs affected departments to submit a plan to DAS and
County Board staff for filling or recreating only the most critical positions related
to the positions restored but not fully funded during the 2007 Budget process;
and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that DAS and County Board staff are hereby
authorized to approve or modify these departmental plans for the immediate
filling of critical vacancies, and to report to the Finance and Audit Committee
positions approved for filling and the corresponding fiscal impact.

Michael, when you write this up please be aware that the County Board staff
wants the agreed upon debt schedules attached. Again, if you want me to review
it before we share it, I will be glad to. Once it is in good form I will share
with County Board staff and the Executive to get their final sign off. I will
then talk to legal to see how we get it drafted in a form suitable for Board
review and hopefully approval.
Thanks for all your efforts on this. I look forward to seeing the final

Rob, Cindy, Bill,
Now that we have a verbal framework for a solution package, we would like to
figure out the next steps in putting together appropriate documentation that we
can take to the supervisors for their consideration/vote. Can you provide
help/guidance/direction as to what form this should take? Is this something we
should be drafting? Is this something you should be drafting? We are happy to
follow any direction you have on this matter.

City Campus Estimates
Monday, April 02, 2007 11:51:02 AM

Judy got the info from the insurance company related to the water damage at
City Campus. If we were to repair/replace insurance would cover approximately
$425,000 minus the 50K deductible. If we wanted just the cash, we would get
approx $267,000 minus the $50k deductible. These amounts cover work yet to be
done and do not include claims already submitted for demolition/drying, etc.
The amounts cover ceiling, wall, floor title, etc. repair/replacement.
It is my understanding that this portion of the building (five-story) is
largely vacant and we are operating with a temporaty occupancy permit (the
elevator for this part of the building does not work). There are a few meeting
rooms on first floor and IMSD was using part of the 5th floor but other than
that I think it was mainly used for storage.
I am not sure what George has in mind or what the long-term plans are for this
space, but wanted to pass this on in case it comes with Walker.

draft reclass memo
Monday, April 02, 2007 4:58:22 PM
Capital finance manager reclass.doc

Attached is draft. I am still not sure about the Exec Dir level. It is what
Manske is at, however, it is not what Cooley, Heer and Jenkins are at.
Cooley 918E $95,917
Jenkins 918E $103,215 (recent reclass would take it to $108,013)
Heer 919E $113,805
Manske 902E $106,751

I am trying to avoid it getting caught up or delayed in the "what do we do with
ECP's" debate that Cady has recently raised.
You should also know that Pam makes $82,164. She told me she was hoping to
increase to at least $100k (which surprised me). If she is reclassed to the
mid-point which I think would be appropriate her salary would increase to
$90,460.
There is no job description for this position, but we are cleaning up our org
chart and will attach it.
I am still working on the other one, but whatever ever level we decide (ECP or
Ex Dir) on this one, I believe it should be the same for the Budget Operations
Director but perhaps at a slightly lower step.
Let me know your thoughts.

Reclassification Request: Captial Finance Manager PR 916E to Captial
Finance Director PR 902E

Policy
Milwaukee County Ordinance 17.05 (2) describes the procedure and criteria for the submission
of reclassification requests.
Action Requested
Reclassify Capital Finance Manager position, title code 87840, pay range 916E to Captial
Finance Director, Pay range 902 E. [or 917E or 918E]
Rationale
This position has not been reviewed for classification purposes in at least the last 10 years. Over
the years this position has grown in scope, responsibility and independence. As the County has
faced financial challenges, the complexity and impact of the work assigned to the Capital
Finance Manager has increased, financing programs have grown more diverse and complex and
the County has grown to rely more and more on long-term financing to meet the operating
pressures. In addition, in recent years, the Division of Fiscal Affairs has experienced significant
downsizing, the realignment of duties and increased reliance on automation. The restructuring of
DFAS has significantly impacted the duties assigned to and the competencies required of the
Capital Finance Manager position.
Original Duties
The original responsibilities of the Capital Finance Manager position was limited to capital
budgeting and the issuance of general obligation bonds. The position originally supervised two
fiscal and management analysts in the preparation and management of capital budgets and the
monitoring of fiscal data for the County’s capital program. The Capital Finance Manger was and
continues to be responsible for the preparation, coordination and securing of bond financings for
the County’s capital program. The position works directly with bond counsel, financial advisors
and investment bankers. The Capital Finance Manager is also responsible for securing and
defending the County’s bond rating before annual meetings with the top three bond rating
agencies in the Country. Finally, this position remains responsible for monitoring and projecting
county-wide revenue streams such as sales tax, state aid, tax incremental district revenue,
property tax revenues and other non-departmental revenues.

Increased Responsibilities/Core Competencies
In 2000, the County undertook revenue bonding for the first time with the issuance of
approximately $84 million in revenue bonds for the Airport. Revenue bonding is far more
complex than general obligation bonding since the sale of revenue bonds is a negotiated sale
requiring direct negotiations with investment bankers and significant documentation and
monitoring of the revenue streams that secure the debt. These responsibilities were assumed by
the Capital Finance manager in 2000 and continue to be a significant added responsibility.
In 2003, the County undertook the re-funding and restructuring of approximately $100 million in
general obligation debt to generate the infusion of approximately $20 million into the County
operating budget. Since this was a negotiated sale that required the analysis of multiple
financing structures it was more complex than past financing programs thus requiring the
development of new skill sets for the Capital Finance Manager. The success of this initiative had
county-wide impacts by the generating operating savings sufficient to maintain critical County
programs and operations.
Similar to the projects noted above, the County is once again poised to pursue a financing
program never performed by Milwaukee County – the issuance of Pension Obligation Bonds
(POBs). Currently the Capital Finance Manager is negotiating with State officials to receive the
required legal authorization that would allow Milwaukee County to issue approximately $455
million in 30-year pension obligation bonds and other debt instruments. This is a long-term
commitment for Milwaukee County and will require the Capital Finance Manager to assume
responsibility for analyzing and negotiating complex array of financing tools including capital
appreciation bonds, interest rate swaps and variable rate bonds. In addition, the Capital Finance
Manager position has been and will continue to be required to develop the required skills and
competencies associated with this unique financing option to ensure the program meets the
financial interests of the County and its retirees, state and federal legal requirements and
regulations and the ongoing reporting requirements of the State.
Fiscal Affairs Re-Structuring\IT Management
In 2003, the Division of Fiscal Affairs consisted of the Fiscal and Budget Administrator (FABA),
an Assistant FABA, the Capital Finance Manager, a Budget Unit Manager and 11 Fiscal &
Management Analysts. Today, there is no Assistant FABA and the number of FAMA has
decreased from 11 to 6. Along with this downsizing, both the Budget Unit Manager and the
Capital Finance Manager has had to absorb some day-to-day management duties and assume
special projects that would have historically been assigned to the Assistant FABA. In addition,
the Capital Finance Manger has assumed responsibility for overseeing and managing staff
assignments related to operating budgets when in the past this position was limited to the
management and oversight of only capital-related assignments. Finally, the Capital Finance
Manager position beginning in 2005 assumed the leadership and management responsibility for
the design, development and implementation of key county-wide and department-specific fiscal
automation initiatives, including the Paperless Initiative, automation of county-wide utility bills,
real-time reporting of capital and operating budgets on-line and a point-of-sale system for the
Zoo that allows for direct data transmission into the County’s financial system. The

CArcher_Email3011732

Capital Finance Manager Re-Class Request

4/2/07
Page 3

maintenance, support and continued development of these projects and other similar financial
system initiatives represent a significant expansion of duties assigned to this position.
Conclusion
The scope, complexities, core competencies and overall impact of this position’s duties on the
operations of County government are similar to those of the County Controller. Capital
financing proposals have become more and more complex as the County’s reliance on debt
financing has increased. The incumbent in this position has developed unique expertise and
competencies that exists nowhere else in Milwaukee County. In addition, similar to the
Controller, the functions and duties of this position impact county-wide operations and require
full accountability to regulatory agencies. In recent years the duties and responsibilities assigned
to this position have increased dramatically. It is therefore requested that the Capital Finance
Manager position be reclassified to Capital Finance Director and placed in the same pay range as
that of the County Controller.
Fiscal Impact

CArcher_Email3011733

Capital Finance Manager Re-Class Request

4/2/07

Fiscal Impact
This position action would result in increased personal services expenditures between $1,777 for
step one to $2,420 for step five of the range. This cost is offset approximately 50% by State
revenue for a tax levy impact between $888 to $1,210 for the last five months of 2006.
In terms of total annual costs, this position action would result in increased expenditures of
$2,918 to $3,974, offset by 50% revenue for a tax levy impact of between $1,459 to $1,987 in
2007 (see attached fiscal note form).
Thank you in advance for your consideration of this request.

Budget unit manager reclass

Budget Unit manager reclass.doc

I decided to go for the AFABA because I think it is what is needed. There will
be fall out from Pam I think. However, what you need to think about is what
would happen if my position was ever vacant and who would step in. If after
thinking about this, you have concerns we could go the route of Budget
Operations Manager but if we are going to pay this much, we should at least get
the benefit of the title for future recrutiment purposes. I am curious how you
think this will fly with the Board as well. I did mention it to Cady and he
felt it was dumb to get rid of it to begin with. I am thinking this one will
be at the midpoint as well unless you think we need to notch it down a little
to keep Pam happy.
Your input on both of these would be most welcome. Thanks.

Reclassification Request: Budget Unit Manager PR 916E to Assistant Fiscal

Action Requested
Reclassify Budget Unit Manager position, title code 87830, pay range 916E to Assistant Fiscal
and Budget Administrator, Pay range 902 E. [or 917E or 918E]
Rationale
The position of Assistant Fiscal and Budget Administrator (AFBA) was abolished in the 2005
Budget. Since that time, many of the duties assigned to that position have been shifted to the
current Budget Unit Manager position. Specifically, the Budget Unit Manager position has
assumed primary responsibility for:
 Supervision, management and training of all Fiscal and Management Analysts assigned
operating budget responsibilities.
 Countywide training of non-DAS department staff related to the development of
departmental operating budgets and the use of BRASS.
 Development of annual operating budget instructions (in consultation with the Fiscal and
Budget Administrator (FABA)).
 Countywide fiscal projections related to operating budgets (in consultation with FABA).
 Serves as the BRASS Administrator and supervises and directs IT consultants on
development and modifications to the BRASS.
 Supervision and direction of the Tax Refund Intercept Program (TRIP).
 Supervision of office support staff in absence of FABA.
 Coordination of Fiscal Affairs operations in absence of FABA.

CArcher_Email3011736

Capital Finance Manager Re-Class Request

4/2/07
Page 2

 Recruiting and hiring staff (in consultation with FABA).
 Development of office-wide operating procedures.
 Special projects as assigned by the DAS Director and FABA.
 Acts as FABA in absence of FABA; represents the Director and FABA as required on
Committees, Workgroups and to outside parties.

The current Budget Unit Manager has assumed duties beyond simply supervising and managing
the workload of the Fiscal and Management Analysts related to departmental operating budgets.
With the deletion of the Assistant FABA, the scope, competencies, level of discretion and
independence has increased beyond that of a Budget Unit Manager. Approval of this
reclassification requests, along with the proposed reclassification request for the Capital Finance
Manager will place all three Fiscal Affairs managers at the Executive Director 2 level consistent
with the executive management responsibilities assigned to these positions and consistent with
similar mid-managers within the County.

Subject: DC-48 Contract 2005 - 2008
To All
Attached is a PDF of the resolution for the 2005 - 2008 AFSCME DC-48 employees
wage increases, changes in employee health premium contributions, changes in
health deductibles and copays, and a lump sum payment of $250.
Wages Increases:
The wage rate increases are as follows:
2% on July 02, 2006
PPD 15 2006
PPD 22 2006
2% on October 8, 2006
1% on November 04, 2007
PPD 24 2007
1% on April 06, 2008
1% on June 29, 2008
1% on October 05, 2008

Requires Retro Payment
Requires Retro Payment

The wage increases for 2006 will be applied to payranges and steps during the
week of February 12th. The goal will be to get them into the system for the
pay period ending February 10, 2007 (PPD 04 2007). If this occurs, then the
retro payment will be for the period July 02, 2006 to January 27, 2007. More
information will follow regarding the retro payment and the dates of payment.
Accrual of Wages:
An accrual will be made back to 2006 for DC-48 retro payment wages. A separate
email will follow with dollars by org unit that will be posted to 2006, and
reversed to 2007. This accrual will be just an estimate of the retro payment.
The actual payment may differ. The accrual will be 2% of earnings for the
period of July 02, 2006 to October 7, 2006. In addition, there will be an
accrual of 4.04% for the period of October 8, 2006 to December 30, 2006. The

CArcher_Email3011740

wage accrual will also include an accrual for FICA costs.
At the end of 2005, the County made an accrual for expected DC-48 wage
settlement of $420,685. This 2005 accrual will be reversed, and credited to
departments, as a separate entry.
$250 Lump Sum Payment
AFSCME DC-48 and the County agreed to a $250 lump sum payment for the active
DC-48 members as of February 10, 2008. Their is a limit on the members to be
included. The lump sum payment will be 1) all members who have a weekly work
schedule of at least 20 hours, and 2) all seasonal and hourly employees who are
active and who worked at least 1,040 hours in 2006. We are currently working
on the determination of who is in this group.
We will let you know shortly when this payment will be made. The payment is
contained in the 2007-2008 contract language, and will be charged to 2007.
Employee Health Premium Contributions
The new employee premium contributions will become effective approximately
March 1, 2007, after an open enrollment period. All non-represented employees
should have been notified of the open enrollment, including all DC-48 members.
The new monthly rates are as follows: (Remember payroll deductions are taken
on a biweekly basis and are half of the amount shown below, since every two pay
periods represents one month. There are two pay periods during the year that
do not have payroll deductions for employee health premiums, so that only 24
deductions are taken during the year.)

You asked me for a comparison of the self ins to the full ins. I have attached
a PDF of the comparison that I did in excel. It also includes my IBNR analysis
as a second page. The Fully Ins plan would have cost us $112.8 million vs my
estimate of the self ins plan of $116.5, which includes the admin fees and stop
loss fees.
This is a difference of $3.8 million.

Correct me if I'm wrong...but aren't both of the resolutions the same? Yes, I
know Dee's version is slightly different (to reflect the CB standard format),
but both delete the last two BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED clauses that were there at

Below is the revised resolution reflecting actions of Finance related to
processing the salary and fringe adjustments. The motion was to approve
recommendation #1 in the report. Please note, while the Chair did not approve
recommendation # 2 related to County Board staff and DAS identifying and
approving the filling of most critical DC48 positions, it was clear from
talking to the Chair that it was the intent that the Administration would
"manage" this shortfall. The attached resoultion recognizes the potential
funding gap if all positions are filled but is silent on what actions are
required. I think this is ok because it is really an adminitrative function to
review and fill positions within the context of the 2007 budget.
Let me know if you have comments or concnerns. Thanks.

(ITEM ) 2007 Budget Adjustments for Employee Fringe Benefits, AFCSME District
Council 48 Collective Bargaining Agreement, Non-Represented Wage and
Health Care, DC 48 Position Funding and Associated Revenues
A RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, the Director, Department of Administrative Services, has
requested authorization to implement several 2007 Budget adjustments to
address several outstanding budgetary issues, including Employee Fringe
Benefits (Org. Unit 1950), County-Wide Employee Fringe Benefits (Object 5401),
AFCSME District Council 48 (DC 48) labor contract settlement, funding of certain
DC 48 positions, Non-Represented (NR) wage and health care, and associated
revenue effects; and
WHEREAS, on February 1, 2007, the County Board of Supervisors adopted
Resolution File No. 07-96, which authorized a labor agreement between the
County and DC 48; and
WHEREAS, the settlement includes salary increases, a lump sum bonus
payment and health care adjustments that were not included in the 2007
Budget because the contract had not been settled at the time of budget
adoption, and adjustments to the 2007 Budget are required to fund the wage
increases and reflect the fringe benefit savings associated with the DC 48
contract; and
WHEREAS, the DC 48 Settlement requires an increase in expenditures of
$7,035,716 to reflect the cumulative impact of the retroactive wage increases
from 2006, a one percent wage increase effective November 2007, and a $250
per (eligible) employee lump sum bonus payment; and
WHEREAS, the County Board also approved a similar package of wage
increases and health care premium contribution adjustments under File No. 0797 for all Non-Represented employees, and a budget adjustment is required to
increase expenditures by $83,943 for salaries and social security to reflect the
impact of a 1 percent wage increase in November 2007; and
WHEREAS, the budget for Employee Fringe Benefits (Org. 1950) must be
adjusted to take into account $2,500,000 of health benefits savings associated
with the adoption of employee co-pays and deductibles by DC 48 members, an
increased cost of $613,956 due to health plan choices by DC 48 members and
Non-Represented employees based on a revised employee contribution

schedule, and a savings of $316,000 from estimated expenditures related to
Medicare Part B reimbursement to eligible retirees and their dependents, for a
net total of $2,202,044 of savings; and
WHEREAS, the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) also has
identified additional budget adjustments of a technical nature in Employee
Fringe Benefits accounts that produce a net total of $5,840,063 of additional
savings; and
WHEREAS, an additional budget adjustment is required to reduce
departmental revenues by $616,891 because of reduced fringe benefit
expenditure levels that will produce smaller revenue offsets; and
WHEREAS, the net fiscal impact of the adjustments described above is a
countywide savings of $305,557, as summarized in the following table:

; and
WHEREAS, as a result of the collective bargaining agreement, the DC 48
positions previously slated for layoff on December 15, 2006, were restored, but
these positions are not fully funded in the 2007 Budget and restoration of these
positions will require additional funds; and
WHEREAS, per the DAS – Division of Human Resources (DAS-HR), 128 DC 48
Full-Time Equivalents (FTEs) were unfunded, abolished or lump summed in the
2007 Budget; and

WHEREAS, the 2007 Budget includes sufficient offsets to pay for 62 of those
FTE’s, leaving the equivalent of 66 FTE positions that would need to be funded
(20 in Facilities Management, 33 in the Department of Parks, and 13 in other
departments); and
WHEREAS, the salary and social security costs of filling these positions for
2007, assuming that all currently vacant positions are filled as of April 7, 2007, is
$1,973,367, which would be offset with the $305,557 net savings described
above, leaving a countywide negative fiscal impact of $1,667,810; and
WHEREAS, in light of this potential countywide negative fiscal impact, DAS
believes it is appropriate to consider only filling those restored and currently
vacant DC 48 positions that are critical in nature; now, therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED, that the County Board of Supervisors hereby authorizes
the Department of Administrative Services to proceed with the above described
budget adjustments related to fully funding the AFCSME DC 48 wage
settlement, Non-Represented wage adjustments, and associated revenue
adjustments resulting in an increase in costs of $7,736,550; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that DAS is hereby authorized to execute the
fringe benefit adjustments detailed above resulting in a savings of $8,042,307;
and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the County Board of Supervisors hereby
authorizes and directs affected departments to submit a plan to DAS and
County Board staff for filling or recreating only the most critical positions related
to the positions restored but not fully funded during the 2007 Budget process;
and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that DAS and County Board staff are hereby
authorized to approve or modify these departmental plans for the immediate
filling of critical vacancies, and to report to the Finance and Audit Committee
positions approved for filling and the corresponding fiscal impact.

Michael, when you write this up please be aware that the County Board staff
wants the agreed upon debt schedules attached. Again, if you want me to review
it before we share it, I will be glad to. Once it is in good form I will share
with County Board staff and the Executive to get their final sign off. I will
then talk to legal to see how we get it drafted in a form suitable for Board
review and hopefully approval.
Thanks for all your efforts on this. I look forward to seeing the final
package.

Rob, Cindy, Bill,
Now that we have a verbal framework for a solution package, we would like to
figure out the next steps in putting together appropriate documentation that we
can take to the supervisors for their consideration/vote. Can you provide
help/guidance/direction as to what form this should take? Is this something we
should be drafting? Is this something you should be drafting? We are happy to
follow any direction you have on this matter.

Alex, can you please fill in the fiscal note part of this. I would assume an
effective date at the beginning of the pay period following Board approval. If
you could read through it and let me know if you have comments that would be
helpful also. I am also doing one for the Budget Unit Manager and will ask the
same of you if you don't mind.

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
Inter-Office Communication

DATE:
TO:
FROM:
SUBJECT:

April 3, 2007
Karen Jackson, Director, DHR
Rob Henken, Director, DAS
Reclassification Request: Capital Finance Manager PR 916E to Capital
Finance Director PR 902E

Policy
Milwaukee County Ordinance 17.05 (2) describes the procedure and criteria for the submission
of reclassification requests.
Action Requested
Reclassify Capital Finance Manager position, title code 87840, pay range 916E to Capital
Finance Director, Pay range 902 E.
Rationale
This position has not been reviewed for classification purposes in at least the last 10 years. Over
the years this position has grown in scope, responsibility and independence. As the County has
faced financial challenges, the complexity and impact of the work assigned to the Capital
Finance Manager has increased, financing programs have grown more diverse and complex and
the County has grown to rely more and more on long-term financing to meet its operating budget
pressures. In addition, in recent years, the Division of Fiscal Affairs has experienced significant
downsizing, the realignment of duties and increased reliance on automation. The restructuring of
DAS-Fiscal has significantly impacted the duties assigned to and the competencies required of
the Capital Finance Manager position.
Original Duties
The original responsibilities of the Capital Finance Manager position were limited to capital
budgeting and the issuance of general obligation bonds. The position originally supervised two
fiscal and management analysts in the preparation and management of capital budgets and the
monitoring of fiscal data for the County’s capital program. The Capital Finance Manger was and
continues to be responsible for the preparation, coordination and securing of bond financings for
the County’s capital program. The position works directly with bond counsel, financial advisors
and investment bankers. The Capital Finance Manager is also responsible for securing and
defending the County’s bond rating before annual meetings with the top three bond rating
agencies in the country. Finally, this position remains responsible for monitoring and projecting
countywide revenue streams such as sales tax, state aid, tax incremental district revenue,
property tax revenues and other non-departmental revenues.

Increased Responsibilities/Core Competencies
In 2000, the County undertook revenue bonding for the first time with the issuance of
approximately $84 million in revenue bonds for the Airport. Revenue bonding is far more
complex than general obligation bonding since the sale of revenue bonds is a negotiated sale
requiring direct negotiations with investment bankers and significant documentation and
monitoring of the revenue streams that secure the debt. These responsibilities were assumed by
the Capital Finance manager in 2000 and continue to be a significant added responsibility.
In 2003, the County undertook the re-funding and restructuring of approximately $100 million in
general obligation debt. Since this was a negotiated sale that required the analysis of multiple
financing structures, it was more complex than past financing programs thus requiring the
development of new skill sets for the Capital Finance Manager. The success of this initiative had
countywide impacts by generating operating savings sufficient to maintain critical County
programs and operations.
Similar to the projects noted above, the County is once again poised to pursue a financing
program never performed by Milwaukee County – the issuance of Pension Obligation Bonds
(POBs). Currently, the Capital Finance Manager is negotiating with State officials to receive the
required legal authorization that would allow Milwaukee County to issue approximately $455
million in 30-year pension obligation bonds and other debt instruments. This is a long-term
commitment for Milwaukee County and will require the Capital Finance Manager to assume
responsibility for analyzing and negotiating a complex array of financing tools, including capital
appreciation bonds, interest rate swaps and variable rate bonds. In addition, the Capital Finance
Manager position has been and will continue to be required to develop the required skills and
competencies associated with this unique financing option to ensure the program meets the
financial interests of the County and its retirees, state and federal legal requirements and
regulations and the ongoing reporting requirements of the State.
Fiscal Affairs Re-Structuring\IT Management
In 2003, the Division of Fiscal Affairs consisted of the Fiscal and Budget Administrator (FABA),
an Assistant FABA, the Capital Finance Manager, a Budget Unit Manager and 11 Fiscal &
Management Analysts. Today, there is no Assistant FABA and the number of FAMAs has
decreased from 11 to 6. In light of this downsizing, both the Budget Unit Manager and the
Capital Finance Manager absorbed some day-to-day management duties and assumed special
projects that would have historically been assigned to the Assistant FABA. In addition, the
Capital Finance Manger has assumed responsibility for overseeing and managing staff
assignments related to operating budgets when in the past this position was limited to the
management and oversight of only capital-related assignments. Finally, beginning in 2005, the
Capital Finance Manager position assumed the leadership and management responsibility for the
design, development and implementation of key county-wide and department-specific fiscal
automation initiatives, including the Paperless Initiative, automation of county-wide utility bills,
real-time reporting of capital and operating budgets on-line and a point-of-sale system for the
Zoo that allows for direct data transmission into the County’s financial system. The
maintenance, support and continued development of these projects and other similar financial
system initiatives represent a significant expansion of duties assigned to this position.

Conclusion
The scope, complexities, core competencies and overall impact of this position’s duties on the
operations of County government are similar to other positions in county government assigned to
pay range 902 E. Capital financing proposals have become more and more complex as the
County’s reliance on debt financing has increased. In addition, the functions and duties of this
position impact countywide operations and require full accountability to regulatory agencies. In
recent years the duties and responsibilities assigned to this position have increased dramatically.
It is therefore requested that the Capital Finance Manager position be reclassified to Capital
Finance Director and placed in pay range 902 E.
Fiscal Impact
Reclassification of this position to the mid-point of pay range 902 E would result in increased
salary and social security expenditures of $________ annually. Assuming an effective date of
__________, the 2007 increase in salary and social security costs for the remainder of 2007
would be approximately $______. There are sufficient salary savings in within DAS to absorb
these costs in 2007. Costs associated with 2008 will be budgeted for as part of the 2008 budget.

Fiscal Impact
This position action would result in increased personal services expenditures between $1,777 for
step one to $2,420 for step five of the range. This cost is offset approximately 50% by State
revenue for a tax levy impact between $888 to $1,210 for the last five months of 2006.
In terms of total annual costs, this position action would result in increased expenditures of
$2,918 to $3,974, offset by 50% revenue for a tax levy impact of between $1,459 to $1,987 in
2007 (see attached fiscal note form).

Reclassification Request: Budget Unit Manager PR 916E to Assistant Fiscal
and Budget Administrator PR 902E

Policy
Milwaukee County Ordinance 17.05 (2) describes the procedure and criteria for the submission
of reclassification requests.
Action Requested
Reclassify Budget Unit Manager position, title code 87830, pay range 916E to Assistant Fiscal
and Budget Administrator, Pay range 902 E. [or 917E or 918E]
Rationale
The position of Assistant Fiscal and Budget Administrator (AFBA) was abolished in the 2005
Budget. Since that time, many of the duties assigned to that position have been shifted to the
current Budget Unit Manager position. Specifically, the Budget Unit Manager position has
assumed primary responsibility for:
 Supervision, management and training of all Fiscal and Management Analysts assigned
operating budget responsibilities.
 Countywide training of non-DAS department staff related to the development of
departmental operating budgets and the use of BRASS.
 Development of annual operating budget instructions (in consultation with the Fiscal and
Budget Administrator (FABA)).
 Countywide fiscal projections related to operating budgets (in consultation with FABA).
 Serves as the BRASS Administrator and supervises and directs IT consultants on
development and modifications to the BRASS.
 Supervision and direction of the Tax Refund Intercept Program (TRIP).
 Supervision of office support staff in absence of FABA.
 Coordination of Fiscal Affairs operations in absence of FABA.

CArcher_Email3011767

Budget Unit Manager Re-Class Request

 Recruiting and hiring staff (in consultation with FABA).
 Development of office-wide operating procedures.
 Special projects as assigned by the DAS Director and FABA.
 Acts as FABA in absence of FABA; represents the Director and FABA as required on
Committees, Workgroups and to outside parties.

The current Budget Unit Manager has assumed duties beyond simply supervising and managing
the workload of the Fiscal and Management Analysts related to departmental operating budgets.
With the deletion of the Assistant FABA, the scope, competencies, level of discretion and
independence of this position has increased beyond that of a Budget Unit Manager. Essentially,
this position has now assumed the duties of both Assistant FABA and Budget Unit Manager, and
given that reality, the position clearly warrants the higher classification of Assistant FABA.
Furthermore, approval of this reclassification request, along with the proposed reclassification
request for the Capital Finance Manager and the reclassification of the Controller position in the
2007 Budget, will place all three Fiscal Affairs managers at the Executive Director 2 level
consistent with the executive management responsibilities assigned to these positions and
consistent with similar managers within the County.

Fiscal Impact
Reclassification of this position to the mid-point of pay range 902 E would result in increased
salary and social security expenditures of $________ annually. Assuming an effective date of
__________, the 2007 increase in salary and social security costs for the remainder of 2007
would be approximately $______. There are sufficient salary savings in within DAS to absorb

Can you look at this and see if I should add anything. Need estimated fiscal
impact as well.
Just so you know, I was going to do this before you said you wanted to leave
the position. I think I even mentioned it to you. I do not want you to think
I am doing because you are vacating the position because nothing could be
further from the truth. You would have been ideal in this position and of
course my first choice. But we both know you are doing what is best for you at
this point -- right?

Rob, attached are revised documents. I asked Molly to review the unit manager
one and she added a good intro paragraph and couple small edits. I made all
your changes. Alex reviewed the capt finance one and did the fiscal note. I
am still waiting to see if Alex has any comments on the Budget Unit manager
one. Overall, I think they are close to being done. I will await until you
talk to Walker before I send these to Karen.
I talked to Molly again and things are looking very positive. The word is out
about the possibility of her coming over here. I will tell you when I see you.
Thanks for your help on these the willingness to expend some "political
capital" to get this done. I think it will be a very good thing. Things are
looking up.

Reclassification Request: Capital Finance Manager PR 916E to Capital
Finance Director PR 902E

Policy
Milwaukee County Ordinance 17.05 (2) describes the procedure and criteria for the submission
of reclassification requests.
Action Requested
Reclassify Capital Finance Manager position, title code 87840, pay range 916E to Capital
Finance Director, Pay range 902 E.
Rationale
This position has not been reviewed for classification purposes in at least 10 years. Over that
time this position has grown in scope, responsibility and independence. As the County has faced
financial challenges, the complexity and impact of the work assigned to the Capital Finance
Manager has increased, financing programs have grown more diverse and complex and the
County has grown to rely more and more on long-term financing to meet its operating budget
pressures. In addition, in recent years, the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) Division of Fiscal Affairs (Fiscal) has experienced significant downsizing, the realignment of
duties and increased reliance on automation. The restructuring of DAS-Fiscal has significantly
impacted the duties assigned to and the competencies required of the Capital Finance Manager
position.
Original Duties
The original responsibilities of the Capital Finance Manager position were limited to capital
budgeting and the issuance of general obligation bonds. The position originally supervised two
fiscal and management analysts in the preparation and management of capital budgets and the
monitoring of fiscal data for the County’s capital program. The Capital Finance Manger was and
continues to be responsible for the preparation, coordination and securing of bond financings for
the County’s capital program. The position works directly with bond counsel, financial advisors
and investment bankers. The Capital Finance Manager is also responsible for securing and
defending the County’s bond rating before annual meetings with the top three bond rating
agencies in the country. Finally, this position remains responsible for monitoring and projecting
countywide revenue streams such as sales tax, state aid, tax incremental district revenue,
property tax revenues and other non-departmental revenues.

CArcher_Email3011776

Capital Finance Manager Re-Class Request

4/2/07
Page 2

Increased Responsibilities/Core Competencies
In 2000, the County undertook revenue bonding for the first time with the issuance of
approximately $84 million in revenue bonds for the Airport. Revenue bonding is far more
complex than general obligation bonding since the sale of revenue bonds is a negotiated sale
requiring direct negotiations with investment bankers and significant documentation and
monitoring of the revenue streams that secure the debt. These responsibilities were assumed by
the Capital Finance Manager in 2000 and continue to be a significant added responsibility.
In 2003, the County undertook the re-funding and restructuring of approximately $100 million in
general obligation debt. Since this was a negotiated sale that required the analysis of multiple
financing structures, it was more complex than past financing programs thus requiring the
development of new skill sets for the Capital Finance Manager. The success of this initiative had
countywide impacts by generating operating savings sufficient to maintain critical County
programs and operations.
Similar to the projects noted above, the County is once again poised to pursue a financing
program never performed by Milwaukee County – the issuance of Pension Obligation Bonds
(POBs). Currently, the Capital Finance Manager is negotiating with State officials to receive the
required legal authorization that would allow Milwaukee County to issue approximately $455
million in 30-year pension obligation bonds and other debt instruments. This is a long-term
commitment for Milwaukee County and will require the Capital Finance Manager to assume
responsibility for analyzing and negotiating a complex array of financing tools, including capital
appreciation bonds, interest rate swaps and variable rate bonds. In addition, the Capital Finance
Manager position has been and will continue to be required to develop the skills and
competencies associated with this unique financing option to ensure the program meets the
financial interests of the County and its retirees, state and federal legal requirements and
regulations and the ongoing reporting requirements of the State.
Fiscal Affairs Re-Structuring\IT Management
In 2003, the Division of Fiscal Affairs consisted of the Fiscal and Budget Administrator (FABA),
an Assistant FABA, the Capital Finance Manager, a Budget Unit Manager and 11 Fiscal &
Management Analysts (FAMA). Today, there is no Assistant FABA and the number of FAMAs
has decreased from 11 to 6. In light of this downsizing, both the Budget Unit Manager and the
Capital Finance Manager absorbed some day-to-day management duties and assumed special
projects that would have historically been assigned to the Assistant FABA. In addition, the
Capital Finance Manger has assumed responsibility for overseeing and managing staff
assignments related to operating budgets when in the past this position was limited to the
management and oversight of only capital-related assignments. Finally, beginning in 2005, the
Capital Finance Manager position assumed the leadership and management responsibility for the
design, development and implementation of key county-wide and department-specific fiscal
automation initiatives, including the Paperless Initiative, automation of county-wide utility bills,
real-time reporting of capital and operating budgets on-line and a point-of-sale system for the
Zoo that allows for direct data transmission into the County’s financial system. The

Capital Finance Manager Re-Class Request

4/2/07
Page 3

maintenance, support and continued development of these projects and other similar financial
system initiatives represent a significant expansion of duties assigned to this position.
Conclusion
The scope, complexities, core competencies and overall impact of this position’s duties on the
operations of County government are similar to other positions in county government assigned to
pay range 902 E. Capital financing proposals have become more and more complex as the
County’s reliance on debt financing has increased. In addition, the functions and duties of this
position impact countywide operations and require full accountability to regulatory agencies. In
recent years the duties and responsibilities assigned to this position have increased dramatically.
It is therefore requested that the Capital Finance Manager position be reclassified to Capital
Finance Director and placed in pay range 902 E.
Fiscal Impact
Reclassification of this position to the mid-point of pay range 902 E would result in increased
salary and social security expenditures of $8,930 annually. Assuming an effective date of May
19, the 2007 increase in salary and social security costs for the remainder of 2007 would be
approximately 5,496. There are sufficient salary savings within DAS – Fiscal to absorb these
costs in 2007. Costs associated with 2008 will be included in the 2008 budget.
Note: This moves the position from Pay Range 916E Step 7 ($82,165) to the Mid of 902E
($90,461) and assumes 16 pay periods for the remainder of 2007 beginning on May 19.

Reclassification Request: Budget Unit Manager PR 916E to Assistant Fiscal
and Budget Administrator PR 902E

Policy
Milwaukee County Ordinance 17.05 (2) describes the procedure and criteria for the submission
of reclassification requests.
Action Requested
Reclassify Budget Unit Manager position, title code 87830, pay range 916E to Assistant Fiscal
and Budget Administrator, Pay range 902 E. [or 917E or 918E]
Rationale
In the 1990s the management staff of the Department of Administration’s Fiscal Affairs Division
(now the Department of Administrative Services Fiscal and Strategic Services Division)
consisted of a Fiscal and Budget Administrator, an Assistant Fiscal and Budget Administrator
and four Budget Unit Managers. The positions of Budget Unit Managers were created and
functioned as managers for specific areas of the County’s budget; for example, the Public Safety
and Courts function had one Budget Unit Manager to supervise the analysts and budgets for that
area. The Budget Unit Managers reported to the Assistant Fiscal and Budget Administrator who
functioned as the deputy to the Fiscal and Budget Administrator. Currently, the Division is
staffed with a Fiscal and Budget Administrator and one Budget Unit Manager.
The position of Assistant Fiscal and Budget Administrator (AFBA) was abolished in the 2005
Budget due to fiscal constraints. Since that time, many of the duties assigned to that position
have been shifted to the current Budget Unit Manager position. Specifically, the Budget Unit
Manager position has assumed primary responsibility for:
 Supervision, management and training of all Fiscal and Management Analysts assigned
operating budget responsibilities.
 Countywide training of non-DAS department staff related to the development of
departmental operating budgets and the use of BRASS.
 Development of annual operating budget instructions (in consultation with the Fiscal and
Budget Administrator (FABA)).

CArcher_Email3011780

 Countywide fiscal projections related to operating budgets (in consultation with FABA).
 Serves as the BRASS Administrator and supervises and directs IT consultants on
development and modifications to the BRASS.
 Supervision and direction of the Tax Refund Intercept Program (TRIP).
 Supervision of office support staff in absence of FABA.
 Coordination of Fiscal Affairs operations in absence of FABA.
 Recruiting and hiring staff (in consultation with FABA).
 Development of office-wide operating procedures.
 Special projects as assigned by the DAS Director and FABA.
 Acts as FABA in absence of FABA.
 Represents the Director and FABA as required on Committees, Workgroups and to
outside parties.

The current Budget Unit Manager has assumed duties beyond simply supervising and managing
the workload of the Fiscal and Management Analysts related to departmental operating budgets.
With the deletion of the Assistant FABA, the scope, competencies, level of discretion and
independence of this position has increased beyond that of a Budget Unit Manager. The Budget
Unit Manager no longer manages only one functional area of the office but has numerous
countywide responsibilities that were not envisioned with the creation of the Budget Unit
Managers. This results in the Budget Unit Manager being knowledgeable about all areas of the
County. Essentially, this position has now assumed the duties of both Assistant FABA and
Budget Unit Manager, and given that reality, the position clearly warrants the higher
classification of Assistant FABA. Furthermore, approval of this reclassification request, along
with the proposed reclassification request for the Capital Finance Manager and the
reclassification of the Controller position in the 2007 Budget, will place all three Fiscal Affairs
managers at the Executive Director 2 level consistent with the executive management
responsibilities assigned to these positions and consistent with similar managers within the
County.

Fiscal Impact
Reclassification of this position to the mid-point of pay range 902 E would result in increased
salary and social security expenditures of $________ annually. Assuming an effective date of
__________, the 2007 increase in salary and social security costs for the remainder of 2007

would be approximately $______. There are sufficient salary savings in within DAS to absorb
these costs in 2007. Costs associated with 2008 will be budgeted for as part of the 2008 budget.

Fw: fund transfers for May April Cycle
Wednesday, April 04, 2007 1:26:29 PM

Barry, the timeline for the next Finance Cycle is that reports/position
studies/transfer requests are due to DAS by April 19th.
The issue we have with your items is the submittal of items to Transportation
and Public Works Committee prior to DAS review and prior to Finance Committee
review and action. My understanding is that you submit these items to
Transportation as an information item only. I ask that you keep in mind, until
the DAS review is complete and the Finance Committee takes action, the items
you take to Transportation Committee may or may not be approved as submitted.
We can take a look at your items as soon as they arrive, but that does not
guarantee that issues may come up as we complete our analysis. For example, if
we receive the items below for Finance on April 19th, you would also submit the
same material to DPW on April 25th prior to the completion of the DAS review
and submittal for Finance (May 1 ). The risk is that you may wind up with
budget items on the DPW agenda that do not make it on the Finance agenda -which is what happened in last cycle.

        fund transfers for May April Cycle





Rob,
We have 3 fund transfers for the next cycle
1) airfield safety improvements
2) restroom design
3) Timmerman paving.
They are ready to submit to Geoge Torres and to DAS.
How do you want me to handle these, so that DAS has the proper time to review,
prior to placing them on the TPW agenda?
Barry

Did budget in 2007 anything for prospective pay increases for the other unions
(Teamco, Attorneys, Trades, etc.?) I have estimates of the costs for 2007 and
2008 but I thought you said we budgeted for this in 2007.

Cindy:
I'd like to talk to you folks a bit more about the 2007 Budget Adjustment
report that was reviewed by Finance last week. There is concern about the
impact on the Parks Department, especially on whether they have 35 vacancies
and 8 filled positions, or 35 filled and 8 vacant positions. I'll try and give
you a call later this afternoon. (I have a standing pre-Board Day meeting with
the Chairman from 2:30 to around 4)

Hi CindyHere are the two reclass requests including the cost out. I am sending the
Capital one again because when I looked at it I noticed there was some language
on the third page that is from a separate reclass and I wanted to make sure you
deleted it. I used the budgeted salary and put a note in about it so you will
want to erase that. Besides that it looks good. Let me know if you need
anything else.
Also - you may want to check the dates int he header - I didn't look at them.

Budget Unit Manager Reclass
COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
Inter-Office Communication

DATE:
TO:
FROM:
SUBJECT:

April 2, 2007
Karen Jackson, Director, DHR
Rob Henken, Director, DAS
Reclassification Request: Budget Unit Manager PR 916E to Assistant Fiscal
and Budget Administrator PR 902E

Policy
Milwaukee County Ordinance 17.05 (2) describes the procedure and criteria for the submission
of reclassification requests.
Action Requested
Reclassify Budget Unit Manager position, title code 87830, pay range 916E to Assistant Fiscal
and Budget Administrator, pPay range 902 E. [or 917E or 918E]
Rationale
The position of Assistant Fiscal and Budget Administrator (AFBA) was abolished in the 2005
Budget. Since that time, many of the duties assigned to that position have been shifted to the
current Budget Unit Manager position. Specifically, the Budget Unit Manager position has
assumed primary responsibility for:
 Supervision, management and training of all Fiscal and Management Analysts assigned
operating budget responsibilities.
 Countywide training of non-DAS department staff related to the development of
departmental operating budgets and the use of BRASS.
 Development of annual operating budget instructions (in consultation with the Fiscal and
Budget Administrator (FABA)).
 Coordinate (with the FABA and staff) the Recommended Operating Budget process,
including review and analysis of Requested Budgets, development of the Recommended
Budget and organization of all amendments and changes for the Adopted budget

Formatted: Bullets and Numbering

 Countywide fiscal projections related to operating budgets (in consultation with FABA).
 Serves as the BRASS Administrator and supervises and directs IT consultants on
development and modifications to the BRASS.
 Supervision and direction of the Tax Refund Intercept Program (TRIP).

CArcher_Email3011809

Budget Unit Manager Re-Class Request

4/2/07
Page 2

 Supervision of office support staff in absence of FABA.
 Coordination of Fiscal Affairs operations in absence of FABA.
 Recruiting and hiring staff (in consultation with FABA).
 Development of office-wide operating procedures.
 Coordination and organization of monthly reports to the County Board.

Formatted: Bullets and Numbering

 Special projects as assigned by the DAS Director and FABA.
 Acts as FABA in absence of FABA; represents the Director and FABA as required on
Committees, Workgroups and to outside parties.

The current Budget Unit Manager has assumed duties beyond simply supervising and managing
the workload of the Fiscal and Management Analysts related to departmental operating budgets.
With the deletion of the Assistant FABA, the scope, competencies, level of discretion and
independence of this position has increased beyond that of a Budget Unit Manager. Essentially,
this position has now assumed the duties of both Assistant FABA and Budget Unit Manager, and
given that reality, the position clearly warrants the higher classification of Assistant FABA.
Furthermore, approval of this reclassification request, along with the proposed reclassification
request for the Capital Finance Manager and the reclassification of the Controller position in the
2007 Budget, will place all three Fiscal Affairs managers at the Executive Director 2 level
consistent with the executive management responsibilities assigned to these positions and
consistent with similar managers within the County.

Fiscal Impact
Reclassification of this position to the mid-point of pay range 902 E would result in increased
salary and social security expenditures of $________ $11,234 annually. Assuming an effective
date of __________, May 19, the 2007 increase in salary and social security costs for the
remainder of 2007 would be approximately $6,913$______. There are sufficient salary savings
in within DAS to absorb these costs in 2007. Costs associated with 2008 will be budgeted for as
part ofincluded in the 2008 budget.
Note: I used the budgeted salary for the BUM position of $80,025 (916E step 6) (my actual
salary is $71K so the change would be very large) and assumed 16 pay periods for the remainder
of the year.

Reclassification Request: Capital Finance Manager PR 916E to Capital
Finance Director PR 902E

Formatted

Policy
Milwaukee County Ordinance 17.05 (2) describes the procedure and criteria for the submission
of reclassification requests.
Action Requested
Reclassify Capital Finance Manager position, title code 87840, pay range 916E to Capital
Finance Director, Pay range 902 E.
Rationale
This position has not been reviewed for classification purposes in at least the last 10 years. Over
that timee years this position has grown in scope, responsibility and independence. As the
County has faced financial challenges, the complexity and impact of the work assigned to the
Capital Finance Manager has increased, financing programs have grown more diverse and
complex and the County has grown to rely more and more on long-term financing to meet its
operating budget pressures. In addition, in recent years, the Department of Administrative
Services (DAS) - Division of Fiscal Affairs (Fiscal) has experienced significant downsizing, the
realignment of duties and increased reliance on automation. The restructuring of DAS-Fiscal has
significantly impacted the duties assigned to and the competencies required of the Capital
Finance Manager position.
Original Duties
The original responsibilities of the Capital Finance Manager position were limited to capital
budgeting and the issuance of general obligation bonds. The position originally supervised two
fiscal and management analysts in the preparation and management of capital budgets and the
monitoring of fiscal data for the County’s capital program. The Capital Finance Manger was and
continues to be responsible for the preparation, coordination and securing of bond financings for
the County’s capital program. The position works directly with bond counsel, financial advisors
and investment bankers. The Capital Finance Manager is also responsible for securing and
defending the County’s bond rating before annual meetings with the top three bond rating
agencies in the country. Finally, this position remains responsible for monitoring and projecting
countywide revenue streams such as sales tax, state aid, tax incremental district revenue,
property tax revenues and other non-departmental revenues.

Increased Responsibilities/Core Competencies
In 2000, the County undertook revenue bonding for the first time with the issuance of
approximately $84 million in revenue bonds for the Airport. Revenue bonding is far more
complex than general obligation bonding since the sale of revenue bonds is a negotiated sale
requiring direct negotiations with investment bankers and significant documentation and
monitoring of the revenue streams that secure the debt. These responsibilities were assumed by
the Capital Finance manager Manager in 2000 and continue to be a significant added
responsibility.
In 2003, the County undertook the re-funding and restructuring of approximately $100 million in
general obligation debt. Since this was a negotiated sale that required the analysis of multiple
financing structures, it was more complex than past financing programs thus requiring the
development of new skill sets for the Capital Finance Manager. The success of this initiative had
countywide impacts by generating operating savings sufficient to maintain critical County
programs and operations.
Similar to the projects noted above, the County is once again poised to pursue a financing
program never performed by Milwaukee County – the issuance of Pension Obligation Bonds
(POBs). Currently, the Capital Finance Manager is negotiating with State officials to receive the
required legal authorization that would allow Milwaukee County to issue approximately $455
million in 30-year pension obligation bonds and other debt instruments. This is a long-term
commitment for Milwaukee County and will require the Capital Finance Manager to assume
responsibility for analyzing and negotiating a complex array of financing tools, including capital
appreciation bonds, interest rate swaps and variable rate bonds. In addition, the Capital Finance
Manager position has been and will continue to be required to develop the required skills and
competencies associated with this unique financing option to ensure the program meets the
financial interests of the County and its retirees, state and federal legal requirements and
regulations and the ongoing reporting requirements of the State.
Fiscal Affairs Re-Structuring\IT Management
In 2003, the Division of Fiscal Affairs consisted of the Fiscal and Budget Administrator (FABA),
an Assistant FABA, the Capital Finance Manager, a Budget Unit Manager and 11 Fiscal &
Management Analysts (FAMA). Today, there is no Assistant FABA and the number of FAMAs
has decreased from 11 to 6. In light of this downsizing, both the Budget Unit Manager and the
Capital Finance Manager absorbed some day-to-day management duties and assumed special
projects that would have historically been assigned to the Assistant FABA. In addition, the
Capital Finance Manger has assumed responsibility for overseeing and managing staff
assignments related to operating budgets when in the past this position was limited to the
management and oversight of only capital-related assignments. Finally, beginning in 2005, the
Capital Finance Manager position assumed the leadership and management responsibility for the
design, development and implementation of key county-wide and department-specific fiscal
automation initiatives, including the Paperless Initiative, automation of county-wide utility bills,
real-time reporting of capital and operating budgets on-line and a point-of-sale system for the
Zoo that allows for direct data transmission into the County’s financial system. The

Capital Finance Manager Re-Class Request

4/2/07
Page 3

maintenance, support and continued development of these projects and other similar financial
system initiatives represent a significant expansion of duties assigned to this position.
Conclusion
The scope, complexities, core competencies and overall impact of this position’s duties on the
operations of County government are similar to other positions in county government assigned to
pay range 902 E. Capital financing proposals have become more and more complex as the
County’s reliance on debt financing has increased. In addition, the functions and duties of this
position impact countywide operations and require full accountability to regulatory agencies. In
recent years the duties and responsibilities assigned to this position have increased dramatically.
It is therefore requested that the Capital Finance Manager position be reclassified to Capital
Finance Director and placed in pay range 902 E.
Fiscal Impact
Reclassification of this position to the mid-point of pay range 902 E would result in increased
salary and social security expenditures of $________ $8,930 annually. Assuming an effective
date of __________, May 19, the 2007 increase in salary and social security costs for the
remainder of 2007 would be approximately $______. 5,496. There are sufficient salary savings
in within DAS – Fiscal to absorb these costs in 2007. Costs associated with 2008 will be
budgeted for as part ofincluded in the 2008 budget.
FYI – This moves the position from Pay Range 916E Step 7 ($82,165) to the Mid of 902E
($90,461) and assumes 16 pay periods for the remainder of 2007 beginning on May 19.

Rob, attached are revised documents. I asked Molly to review the unit manager
one and she added a good intro paragraph and couple small edits. I made all
your changes. Alex reviewed the capt finance one and did the fiscal note. I
am still waiting to see if Alex has any comments on the Budget Unit manager
one. Overall, I think they are close to being done. I will await until you
talk to Walker before I send these to Karen.
I talked to Molly again and things are looking very positive. The word is out
about the possibility of her coming over here. I will tell you when I see you.
Thanks for your help on these the willingness to expend some "political
capital" to get this done. I think it will be a very good thing. Things are
looking up.

Reclassification Request: Capital Finance Manager PR 916E to Capital
Finance Director PR 902E

Policy
Milwaukee County Ordinance 17.05 (2) describes the procedure and criteria for the submission
of reclassification requests.
Action Requested
Reclassify Capital Finance Manager position, title code 87840, pay range 916E to Capital
Finance Director, Pay range 902 E.
Rationale
This position has not been reviewed for classification purposes in at least 10 years. Over that
time this position has grown in scope, responsibility and independence. As the County has faced
financial challenges, the complexity and impact of the work assigned to the Capital Finance
Manager has increased, financing programs have grown more diverse and complex and the
County has grown to rely more and more on long-term financing to meet its operating budget
pressures. In addition, in recent years, the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) Division of Fiscal Affairs (Fiscal) has experienced significant downsizing, the realignment of
duties and increased reliance on automation. The restructuring of DAS-Fiscal has significantly
impacted the duties assigned to and the competencies required of the Capital Finance Manager
position.
Original Duties
The original responsibilities of the Capital Finance Manager position were limited to capital
budgeting and the issuance of general obligation bonds. The position originally supervised two
fiscal and management analysts in the preparation and management of capital budgets and the
monitoring of fiscal data for the County’s capital program. The Capital Finance Manger was and
continues to be responsible for the preparation, coordination and securing of bond financings for
the County’s capital program. The position works directly with bond counsel, financial advisors
and investment bankers. The Capital Finance Manager is also responsible for securing and
defending the County’s bond rating before annual meetings with the top three bond rating
agencies in the country. Finally, this position remains responsible for monitoring and projecting
countywide revenue streams such as sales tax, state aid, tax incremental district revenue,
property tax revenues and other non-departmental revenues.

Increased Responsibilities/Core Competencies
In 2000, the County undertook revenue bonding for the first time with the issuance of
approximately $84 million in revenue bonds for the Airport. Revenue bonding is far more
complex than general obligation bonding since the sale of revenue bonds is a negotiated sale
requiring direct negotiations with investment bankers and significant documentation and
monitoring of the revenue streams that secure the debt. These responsibilities were assumed by
the Capital Finance Manager in 2000 and continue to be a significant added responsibility.
In 2003, the County undertook the re-funding and restructuring of approximately $100 million in
general obligation debt. Since this was a negotiated sale that required the analysis of multiple
financing structures, it was more complex than past financing programs thus requiring the
development of new skill sets for the Capital Finance Manager. The success of this initiative had
countywide impacts by generating operating savings sufficient to maintain critical County
programs and operations.
Similar to the projects noted above, the County is once again poised to pursue a financing
program never performed by Milwaukee County – the issuance of Pension Obligation Bonds
(POBs). Currently, the Capital Finance Manager is negotiating with State officials to receive the
required legal authorization that would allow Milwaukee County to issue approximately $455
million in 30-year pension obligation bonds and other debt instruments. This is a long-term
commitment for Milwaukee County and will require the Capital Finance Manager to assume
responsibility for analyzing and negotiating a complex array of financing tools, including capital
appreciation bonds, interest rate swaps and variable rate bonds. In addition, the Capital Finance
Manager position has been and will continue to be required to develop the skills and
competencies associated with this unique financing option to ensure the program meets the
financial interests of the County and its retirees, state and federal legal requirements and
regulations and the ongoing reporting requirements of the State.
Fiscal Affairs Re-Structuring\IT Management
In 2003, the Division of Fiscal Affairs consisted of the Fiscal and Budget Administrator (FABA),
an Assistant FABA, the Capital Finance Manager, a Budget Unit Manager and 11 Fiscal &
Management Analysts (FAMA). Today, there is no Assistant FABA and the number of FAMAs
has decreased from 11 to 6. In light of this downsizing, both the Budget Unit Manager and the
Capital Finance Manager absorbed some day-to-day management duties and assumed special
projects that would have historically been assigned to the Assistant FABA. In addition, the
Capital Finance Manger has assumed responsibility for overseeing and managing staff
assignments related to operating budgets when in the past this position was limited to the
management and oversight of only capital-related assignments. Finally, beginning in 2005, the
Capital Finance Manager position assumed the leadership and management responsibility for the
design, development and implementation of key county-wide and department-specific fiscal
automation initiatives, including the Paperless Initiative, automation of county-wide utility bills,
real-time reporting of capital and operating budgets on-line and a point-of-sale system for the
Zoo that allows for direct data transmission into the County’s financial system. The

maintenance, support and continued development of these projects and other similar financial
system initiatives represent a significant expansion of duties assigned to this position.
Conclusion
The scope, complexities, core competencies and overall impact of this position’s duties on the
operations of County government are similar to other positions in county government assigned to
pay range 902 E. Capital financing proposals have become more and more complex as the
County’s reliance on debt financing has increased. In addition, the functions and duties of this
position impact countywide operations and require full accountability to regulatory agencies. In
recent years the duties and responsibilities assigned to this position have increased dramatically.
It is therefore requested that the Capital Finance Manager position be reclassified to Capital
Finance Director and placed in pay range 902 E.
Fiscal Impact
Reclassification of this position to the mid-point of pay range 902 E would result in increased
salary and social security expenditures of $8,930 annually. Assuming an effective date of May
19, the 2007 increase in salary and social security costs for the remainder of 2007 would be
approximately 5,496. There are sufficient salary savings within DAS – Fiscal to absorb these
costs in 2007. Costs associated with 2008 will be included in the 2008 budget.
Note: This moves the position from Pay Range 916E Step 7 ($82,165) to the Mid of 902E
($90,461) and assumes 16 pay periods for the remainder of 2007 beginning on May 19.

Reclassification Request: Budget Unit Manager PR 916E to Assistant Fiscal
and Budget Administrator PR 902E

Policy
Milwaukee County Ordinance 17.05 (2) describes the procedure and criteria for the submission
of reclassification requests.
Action Requested
Reclassify Budget Unit Manager position, title code 87830, pay range 916E to Assistant Fiscal
and Budget Administrator, Pay range 902 E. [or 917E or 918E]
Rationale
In the 1990s the management staff of the Department of Administration’s Fiscal Affairs Division
(now the Department of Administrative Services Fiscal and Strategic Services Division)
consisted of a Fiscal and Budget Administrator, an Assistant Fiscal and Budget Administrator
and four Budget Unit Managers. The positions of Budget Unit Managers were created and
functioned as managers for specific areas of the County’s budget; for example, the Public Safety
and Courts function had one Budget Unit Manager to supervise the analysts and budgets for that
area. The Budget Unit Managers reported to the Assistant Fiscal and Budget Administrator who
functioned as the deputy to the Fiscal and Budget Administrator. Currently, the Division is
staffed with a Fiscal and Budget Administrator and one Budget Unit Manager.
The position of Assistant Fiscal and Budget Administrator (AFBA) was abolished in the 2005
Budget due to fiscal constraints. Since that time, many of the duties assigned to that position
have been shifted to the current Budget Unit Manager position. Specifically, the Budget Unit
Manager position has assumed primary responsibility for:
 Supervision, management and training of all Fiscal and Management Analysts assigned
operating budget responsibilities.
 Countywide training of non-DAS department staff related to the development of
departmental operating budgets and the use of BRASS.
 Development of annual operating budget instructions (in consultation with the Fiscal and
Budget Administrator (FABA)).

CArcher_Email3011824

Budget Unit Manager Re-Class Request

4/2/07
Page 2

 Countywide fiscal projections related to operating budgets (in consultation with FABA).
 Serves as the BRASS Administrator and supervises and directs IT consultants on
development and modifications to the BRASS.
 Supervision and direction of the Tax Refund Intercept Program (TRIP).
 Supervision of office support staff in absence of FABA.
 Coordination of Fiscal Affairs operations in absence of FABA.
 Recruiting and hiring staff (in consultation with FABA).
 Development of office-wide operating procedures.
 Special projects as assigned by the DAS Director and FABA.
 Acts as FABA in absence of FABA.
 Represents the Director and FABA as required on Committees, Workgroups and to
outside parties.

The current Budget Unit Manager has assumed duties beyond simply supervising and managing
the workload of the Fiscal and Management Analysts related to departmental operating budgets.
With the deletion of the Assistant FABA, the scope, competencies, level of discretion and
independence of this position has increased beyond that of a Budget Unit Manager. The Budget
Unit Manager no longer manages only one functional area of the office but has numerous
countywide responsibilities that were not envisioned with the creation of the Budget Unit
Managers. This results in the Budget Unit Manager being knowledgeable about all areas of the
County. Essentially, this position has now assumed the duties of both Assistant FABA and
Budget Unit Manager, and given that reality, the position clearly warrants the higher
classification of Assistant FABA. Furthermore, approval of this reclassification request, along
with the proposed reclassification request for the Capital Finance Manager and the
reclassification of the Controller position in the 2007 Budget, will place all three Fiscal Affairs
managers at the Executive Director 2 level consistent with the executive management
responsibilities assigned to these positions and consistent with similar managers within the
County.

Fiscal Impact
Reclassification of this position to the mid-point of pay range 902 E would result in increased
salary and social security expenditures of $________ annually. Assuming an effective date of
__________, the 2007 increase in salary and social security costs for the remainder of 2007

would be approximately $______. There are sufficient salary savings in within DAS to absorb
these costs in 2007. Costs associated with 2008 will be budgeted for as part of the 2008 budget.

meeting. A motion was made by Mr. Grebe, seconded by Ms. Noyes and carried
unanimously to approve the minutes with the revisions.
III. & IV. Financial & Fundraising Update
Mike Bernatz gave the financial update through February 2007. Museum attendance is
121,000 through February, of which half was paid attendance. This is approximately
20% under budget and last year’s actual. IMAX and Planetarium attendance is also down
from last year and from plan. The IMAX lease has expired and will be renegotiated.
Employee population is at 117 FTE’s. Fundraising is ahead of plan, with $2.4 million in
unrestricted funds raised. About 61% of the restricted fundraising goal has been met. The
capital campaign is on hold until the recovery plan is in place. Statement of Activities
showed a decrease in net assets of $11,000 through January. Accounts payable balance is
$600,000. February receipts were less than plan and expenses were over plan. Lending
plan performance remains at $4,661,000. The 60-day financial forecast shows the
quarterly County payment received and a bond principal payment of $100,000 made in
April.

If there is no financial recovery plan in place, a shortfall is projected in June. Mr. Falbo
and representatives from the County stated that they would not be in favor of approving
an advance under those circumstances.

That's fine, Cindy. By the way, I am planning to take tomorrow off, though I
will be doing some work at home at least in the morning. If we need to connect
on anything tomorrow and/or you need me to review anything having to do with
the Budget instructions or whatever, it is absolutely no problem for me to do
so. I tap right into the server from my laptop at home. I also may take next
Friday off, as my kids are on Spring Break.

Cindy, based on my conversation with Jim Martin (DA Fiscal Person) last month,
they should be OK for 2007. The fiscal site is down this morning. I will do
another projection this afternoon and give Jim Martin a phone call if I have
any concerns.

2008 Budget
Thursday, April 05, 2007 3:48:31 PM
2008 Calendar for Budget.doc

Attached is the draft budget 2008 budget calandar.
Also, I am working on 2008 revenue and expenditure projections for 2008 as
part of the 5-year County outlook. As I mentioned at the Cabinet meeting this
morning, I am asking that you notify me of any signficant changes, particularly
in the area of revenues for your department, that you anticipate for 2008.
Please keep in mind that I am not asking for a complete analysis of your
revenues, I am only asking for items that are significant and that you are
currently aware of. My main focus at this point is in updating state and
federal aid estimates that you may be aware of. This information will be
included in the projections that we will be providing to our bond rating
agencies in several weeks. Please email updates to Catherine Koper at
[email protected]. by Friday, April 13th.

Budget Unit Manager Reclass
COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
Inter-Office Communication

DATE:
TO:
FROM:
SUBJECT:

April 9, 2007
Karen Jackson, Director, DHR
Rob Henken, Director, DAS
Reclassification Request: Budget Unit Manager PR 916E to Assistant Fiscal
and Budget Administrator PR 902E

Policy
Milwaukee County Ordinance 17.05 (2) describes the procedure and criteria for the submission
of reclassification requests.
Action Requested
Reclassify Budget Unit Manager position, title code 87830, pay range 916E to Assistant Fiscal
and Budget Administrator, Pay range 902 E.
Rationale
In the 1990s the management staff of the Department of Administration’s Fiscal Affairs Division
(now the Department of Administrative Services Fiscal and Strategic Services Division)
consisted of a Fiscal and Budget Administrator, an Assistant Fiscal and Budget Administrator
and four Budget Unit Managers. The positions of Budget Unit Managers were created and
functioned as managers for specific areas of the County’s budget; for example, the Public Safety
and Courts function had one Budget Unit Manager to supervise the analysts and budgets for that
area. The Budget Unit Managers reported to the Assistant Fiscal and Budget Administrator who
functioned as the deputy to the Fiscal and Budget Administrator. Currently, the Division is
staffed with a Fiscal and Budget Administrator and one Budget Unit Manager.
The position of Assistant Fiscal and Budget Administrator (AFBA) was abolished in the 2005
Budget due to fiscal constraints. Since that time, many of the duties assigned to that position
have been shifted to the current Budget Unit Manager position. Specifically, the Budget Unit
Manager position has assumed primary responsibility for:
 Supervision, management and training of all Fiscal and Management Analysts assigned
operating budget responsibilities.
 Development and conducting or countywide training of non-DAS department staff
related to the development of departmental operating budgets and the use of BRASS.
 Development of annual operating budget instructions (in consultation with the Fiscal and
Budget Administrator (FABA)).

CArcher_Email3011866

Budget Unit Manager Re-Class Request

4/2/07
Page 2

 Development of countywide fiscal projections related to operating budgets (in
consultation with FABA).
 Development (with FABA) and coordination of operating budget process, including
timelines, completion of review and analysis of requested budgets, development of the
Executive’s Recommended Budget and tracking of all Board amendments to the
Executive Budget
 Assisting FABA in the presentation and explanation of Executive Budget provisions to
Committees, the County Board and outside organizations.
 Overseeing and managing the compilation and production of the Adopted budget to
ensure Board actions and intent are accurately reflected in the final Adopted budget.
 Coordination, oversight, review and organization of monthly reports to the County Board.
 Serving as the BRASS Administrator and supervises and directs IT consultants on
development and modifications to BRASS.
 Supervision and direction of the Tax Refund Intercept Program (TRIP).
 Supervision of office support staff in absence of FABA.
 Oversight and direction of Fiscal Affairs operations and functions in absence of FABA.
 Recruiting and hiring staff (in consultation with FABA).
 Development of office-wide operating procedures.
 Completion of special projects as assigned by the DAS Director and FABA.
 Acts as FABA in absence of FABA.
 Represents the Director and FABA as required on Committees, Workgroups and to
outside parties.

The current Budget Unit Manager has assumed duties beyond simply supervising and managing
the workload of the Fiscal and Management Analysts related to departmental operating budgets.
With the deletion of the Assistant FABA, the scope, competencies, level of discretion and
independence of this position has increased beyond that of a Budget Unit Manager. The Budget
Unit Manager no longer manages only one functional area of the office but has numerous
countywide responsibilities that were not envisioned with the creation of the Budget Unit
Managers. This results in the Budget Unit Manager being knowledgeable about all areas of the
County. Essentially, this position has now assumed the duties of both Assistant FABA and
Budget Unit Manager, and given that reality, the position clearly demands the higher

CArcher_Email3011867

Budget Unit Manager Re-Class Request

4/2/07
Page 3

classification of Assistant FABA. Furthermore, approval of this reclassification request, along
with the proposed reclassification request for the Capital Finance Manager and the
reclassification of the Controller position in the 2007 Budget, will place all three Fiscal Affairs
managers at the Executive Director 2 level consistent with the executive management
responsibilities assigned to these positions and consistent with similar managers within the
County.

Fiscal Impact
Reclassification of this position to the mid-point of pay range 902 E would result in increased
salary and social security expenditures of $11,234 annually. Assuming an effective date of May
19, the 2007 increase in salary and social security costs for the remainder of 2007 would be
approximately $6,913. There are sufficient salary savings in within DAS to absorb these costs in
2007. Costs associated with 2008 will be included in the 2008 budget.

Fiscal Impact
This position action would result in increased personal services expenditures between $1,777 for
step one to $2,420 for step five of the range. This cost is offset approximately 50% by State
revenue for a tax levy impact between $888 to $1,210 for the last five months of 2006.
In terms of total annual costs, this position action would result in increased expenditures of
$2,918 to $3,974, offset by 50% revenue for a tax levy impact of between $1,459 to $1,987 in
2007 (see attached fiscal note form).
Thank you in advance for your consideration of this request.

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE

DATE:

FROM:
SUBJECT:

April 3, 2007
Karen Jackson, Director, DHR
Rob Henken, Director, DAS
Reclassification Request: Capital Finance Manager PR 916E to Capital
Finance Director PR 902E

Policy
Milwaukee County Ordinance 17.05 (2) describes the procedure and criteria for the submission
of reclassification requests.
Action Requested
Reclassify Capital Finance Manager position, title code 87840, pay range 916E to Capital
Finance Director, Pay range 902 E.
Rationale
This position has not been reviewed for classification purposes in at least 10 years. Over that
time this position has grown in scope, responsibility and independence. As the County has faced
financial challenges, the complexity and impact of the work assigned to the Capital Finance
Manager has increased, financing programs have grown more diverse and complex and the
County has grown to rely more and more on long-term financing to meet its operating budget
pressures. In addition, in recent years, the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) Division of Fiscal Affairs (Fiscal) has experienced significant downsizing, the realignment of
duties and increased reliance on automation. The restructuring of DAS-Fiscal has significantly
impacted the duties assigned to and the competencies required of the Capital Finance Manager
position.
Original Duties
The original responsibilities of the Capital Finance Manager position were limited to capital
budgeting and the issuance of general obligation bonds. The position originally supervised two
fiscal and management analysts in the preparation and management of capital budgets and the
monitoring of fiscal data for the County’s capital program. The Capital Finance Manger was and
continues to be responsible for the preparation, coordination and securing of bond financings for
the County’s capital program. The position works directly with bond counsel, financial advisors
and investment bankers. The Capital Finance Manager is also responsible for securing and
defending the County’s bond rating before annual meetings with the top three bond rating
agencies in the country. Finally, this position remains responsible for monitoring and projecting
countywide revenue streams such as sales tax, state aid, tax incremental district revenue,
property tax revenues and other non-departmental revenues.

CArcher_Email3011870

Capital Finance Manager Re-Class Request

4/2/07
Page 2

Increased Responsibilities/Core Competencies
In 2000, the County undertook revenue bonding for the first time with the issuance of
approximately $84 million in revenue bonds for the Airport. Revenue bonding is far more
complex than general obligation bonding since the sale of revenue bonds is a negotiated sale
requiring direct negotiations with investment bankers and significant documentation and
monitoring of the revenue streams that secure the debt. These responsibilities were assumed by
the Capital Finance Manager in 2000 and continue to be a significant added responsibility.
In 2003, the County undertook the re-funding and restructuring of approximately $100 million in
general obligation debt. Since this was a negotiated sale that required the analysis of multiple
financing structures, it was more complex than past financing programs thus requiring the
development of new skill sets for the Capital Finance Manager. The success of this initiative had
countywide impacts by generating operating savings sufficient to maintain critical County
programs and operations.
Similar to the projects noted above, the County is once again poised to pursue a financing
program never performed by Milwaukee County – the issuance of Pension Obligation Bonds
(POBs). Currently, the Capital Finance Manager is negotiating with State officials to receive the
required legal authorization that would allow Milwaukee County to issue approximately $455
million in 30-year pension obligation bonds and other debt instruments. This is a long-term
commitment for Milwaukee County and will require the Capital Finance Manager to assume
responsibility for analyzing and negotiating a complex array of financing tools, including capital
appreciation bonds, interest rate swaps and variable rate bonds. In addition, the Capital Finance
Manager position has been and will continue to be required to develop the skills and
competencies associated with this unique financing option to ensure the program meets the
financial interests of the County and its retirees, state and federal legal requirements and
regulations and the ongoing reporting requirements of the State.
Fiscal Affairs Re-Structuring\IT Management
In 2003, the Division of Fiscal Affairs consisted of the Fiscal and Budget Administrator (FABA),
an Assistant FABA, the Capital Finance Manager, a Budget Unit Manager and 11 Fiscal &
Management Analysts (FAMA). Today, there is no Assistant FABA and the number of FAMAs
has decreased from 11 to 6. In light of this downsizing, both the Budget Unit Manager and the
Capital Finance Manager absorbed some day-to-day management duties and assumed special
projects that would have historically been assigned to the Assistant FABA. In addition, the
Capital Finance Manger has assumed responsibility for overseeing and managing staff
assignments related to operating budgets when in the past this position was limited to the
management and oversight of only capital-related assignments. Finally, beginning in 2005, the
Capital Finance Manager position assumed the leadership and management responsibility for the
design, development and implementation of key county-wide and department-specific fiscal
automation initiatives, including the Paperless Initiative, automation of county-wide utility bills,
real-time reporting of capital and operating budgets on-line and a point-of-sale system for the
Zoo that allows for direct data transmission into the County’s financial system. The

CArcher_Email3011871

Capital Finance Manager Re-Class Request

4/2/07
Page 3

maintenance, support and continued development of these projects and other similar financial
system initiatives represent a significant expansion of duties assigned to this position.
Conclusion
The scope, complexities, core competencies and overall impact of this position’s duties on the
operations of County government are similar to other positions in county government assigned to
pay range 902 E. Capital financing proposals have become more and more complex as the
County’s reliance on debt financing has increased. In addition, the functions and duties of this
position impact countywide operations and require full accountability to regulatory agencies. In
recent years the duties and responsibilities assigned to this position have increased dramatically.
It is therefore requested that the Capital Finance Manager position be reclassified to Capital
Finance Director and placed in pay range 902 E.
Fiscal Impact
Reclassification of this position to the mid-point of pay range 902 E would result in increased
salary and social security expenditures of $8,930 annually. Assuming an effective date of May
19, the 2007 increase in salary and social security costs for the remainder of 2007 would be
approximately 5,496. There are sufficient salary savings within DAS – Fiscal to absorb these
costs in 2007. Costs associated with 2008 will be included in the 2008 budget.
Note: This moves the position from Pay Range 916E Step 7 ($82,165) to the midpoint of 902E
($90,461) and assumes 16 pay periods for the remainder of 2007 beginning on May 19.

I will get the form. Position descriptions do not exists and to my knowledge
other departments are being required to submit those with reclass requests. If
we are required to do that, I think that would be holding us to a higher

        Payroll Manager Position





I have talked to Human Resources and asked about the payroll manager position.
They have indicated that the print ad in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel was not
successful.
I am suggesting that we use the on line ads of Milwaukee Business Journal
(milwaukee.bizjournals.com) and Careerbuilder.com. The cost of these ads would
be $750, and would at least give me another shot at finding a manager.
Is this OK?
I have gotten them to agree to using Payroll Manager instead of
Payroll/Accounting Manager. In addition, they are going to put the ad on the
American payroll association website. This is a free website.
The wage rate of the position is from 59,700 to 71,000.

Re: Procedures for HR and DAS
Friday, April 06, 2007 1:04:29 PM

I think the below accurately reflects what we have talked about. In essence
transations related to pay and classification should go to HR first since it is
HR's purvue to "rule" on these. If HR approves these transactions, DAS will
conduct the fiscal analysis to determine if sufficient funds are available.
Under no circumstances will these be submitted to the Board without HR prior
approval. However, because I am in the process of preparing a reclass request,
I see the very first step on the "Reclassification\Reallocation Approval Form"
that tells Departments the steps to follow reads as follows:
        "The following documentation must be provided with your Reclass Request:
         A fiscal statement from DAS-Fiscal verying how this cost will be
absorbed within the current budget"
So existing instructions on this form would need to be modified to reflect the
steps we have agreed to below.
I asked Alex to commit to writing what we have agreed to because whatever
process we decide on, it must be communicated to departments. It seems we have
started to follow our new process without telling departments which has
resulted in even more confusion.

        Procedures for HR and DAS



CArcher_Email3011882



HiOver the past few weeks I have met with various HR staff to go over the
policies and procedures for submitting reclasses, reallocations,
creates/abolishes etc to HR and Fiscal. There have been some mis-communications
in the past, which have led to Board reports being submitted without approval
by HR and/or Fiscal. To resolve this issue, HR and Fiscal decided that better
communication, set deadlines and clear instructions for all departments need to
be established. Below is a summary of the procedures for various position
actions that need both HR and Fiscal approval. I think it would be helpful for
a memo to go out from the DAS and HR Directors to all Departments so that there
is no confusion in the field.
Reclasses: All reclass requests should be submitted directly to HR from
Departments. On the first of each month, James Tate or Mary will send a memo to
me with a list of all reclasses that HR intends to move forward (the memo
should include the title codes and pay ranges for all positions). I will assign
them to the appropriate analysts and we will send back the fiscal notes to HR
within a week.
Reallocations/Advancements within the Pay Range: All reallocation and
advancement within the pay range requests should be submitted directly to HR
from Departments. James Eggers will e-mail me the memos and fiscal info that he
generates, I will assign them to the appropriate analysts and we will send back
the fiscal notes to HR within 3 days (to meet the Personnel deadline).
Position Studies (Abolish/Creates): Departments submit these directly to Fiscal
by the DAS - Finance report due date (three weeks before the Finance Committee
Meeting). In the afternoon on the due date (Thursday), I will send an e-mail to
HR listing all position studies that Fiscal plans to move forward with for that
cycle. I will also send a copy of any paperwork we have that HR may need. HR
will process these and let us know their determination regarding pay range etc
by the following Tuesday so can meet the Thursday County Board deadline. Fiscal
will start to require that departments submit a PD with their position study
requests.
Please let me know if you have any other questions or if HR has a different
understanding of the process for these actions. Again, I think a memo needs to
be sent to departments since they are still working under previous procedures
put in place last year that do not conform to what is listed above.

Rob, I understand what he wants but this is going to create a firestorm. We
have been very careful to not blame the Board for underfunding positions and it
will result in Rich pressuring us to assume very suspect HC savings that Manske
has written about which will them lead to pressure to fill all positions. Do
you follow what I am saying? I can certainly draft something up for the Exec
and then we can discuss with him.

2007 Budget Adjustments

We have completed our analysis of the impact of the 2007 adopted Budget as it relates to staffing
of your department.
The Board recently approved providing DAS authorization to adjust department budgets to
provide sufficient funding for non-represented pay increases and costs associated with the DC48
labor contract. In addition, the Board authorized DAS to make adjustments to department salary
and fringe benefit accounts to correct technical errors that occurred related to lump sum
adjustments made during the budget and to capture health care and other fringe savings resulting
from provisions adopted in the budget and provisions in the settled labor contracts. As a result of
these adjustments, your department’s budget will be adjusted by increasing your budget authority
for salary by $1,715,445 and social security by $131,228 and by decreasing your fringe benefit
budget by $707,241 for a net increase of $1,139,432.
The above noted adjustments are sufficient to fund the non-represented pay increases authorized
by the Board in January 2007 and the increases resulting from the recently settled DC48 contract
for all authorized positions (vacant or filled) in the Parks Department. In addition, these
adjustments will fully-fund the Parks Departments 2007 fringe costs associated with all
authorized positions in the Parks Department. However, our analysis indicates that there are
insufficient projected fringe savings to fully-fund the positions that were partially unfunded or
lump summed during the budget process.
As adopted, the 2007 Budget restored position authority for 43 FTE in the parks department and
provided $750,000 in funding for the restored positions. The funding provided was sufficient to
fund the salary and social security costs of approximately 10 FTE, leaving 33 FTE unfunded in
your department. Full-funding the salary and social security costs associated with the 33 FTE
would require an appropriation of approximately $1.3 million above the $1.7 million provided
above. To date, we have not identified sufficient countywide savings to reallocate towards
funding this shortfall.
I am requesting that you prepare and submit to DAS a staffing plan to meet the Park’s
Department’s operational needs for the approaching season. The plan should include positions
that you deem critical to fill as well as your projected seasonal hours. Once completed, we can

CArcher_Email3011889

Page 2

compare the cost of your staffing plan to your budget as adjusted above to determine the actual
size of the projected deficit. It is my hope that this can be done quickly so we can move ahead
on processing the paperwork allowing you to fill your vacant positions.
To be clear, I am not requiring the Parks Department to hold positions vacant as a means of
balancing your salary budget. There is wide recognition and support for ensuring the Park’s
Department is staffed sufficiently to meet the expectations of Milwaukee County residents.
However, given the current budget situation and the fact that any deficit in the Parks Department
will have to be absorbed by other departments, it is important that we work to minimize the size
of the expected salary shortage in your department. This will require holding some level of
positions vacant during 2007 or identifying other savings within your department to offset the
costs of filling the unfunded vacancies.
In closing, I understand this is not an ideal situation. However, instead of requiring you to hold
an arbitrary number of positions vacant to minimize the expected deficit, I am asking that you
work with DAS to determine a plan of action that meets the needs of the Park’s Department
while recognizing the fiscal constraints we are under.
Please submit your staffing plan and request to fill position to Alex Kotze, DAS Budget Unit
Manger. If you have questions regarding the above or would like to meet to discuss this issue,
don’t hesitate to contact me.

Copy of Copy of Resume--CIO-Milwaukee County.doc

Yes. I hired David as my IT Director in Brown County. He did not work for me
long because after he started he had some family health issues with one of his
kids and concluded he could not relocate to Brown County. He did not want to
leave and I hated to see him go but his family responsibilites were such that
he needed to leave. I liked him. I quickly developed a confidence in him. He
is easy to talk to and very customer focused. He was liked by everyone. I
would strongly recommend you talk to him. I thought about him when Bud left
but I did not think he would be in a place yet where he would be able to move
so I did not bring it up. Anyway, I hired him and I would hire him again.

this opportunity and look forward to hearing from you

Thank you for your consideration,

Good news
Friday, April 06, 2007 6:07:01 PM

I met with Molly today. She has agreed to come over. We discussed details.
Here is what we figured out.
She will talk to John on Tuesday.
We cannot TAC her and she cannot start comming over here to work until we have
talked to Pam and until we have talked to staff. Pam is out next week. Once
this is done she is willing and interested in spending some time over here.
We would TAC her into Alex's position on April 23 (can't remember why we picked
this date). Alex will need to vacate the position before we TAC. Once she is
TACed she will work primarily from this office spending time at Sheriff's
department as needed.
Reclass request goes to Personnel on 5/11 and to Board on 5/17. If no
objection we would appoint her to AFABA as soon as Board cycle is over.
We will share her time (unspecified amount) between work here and completion of
Sheriff's budget request. Once budgets are submitted, she will be full time
here.
You mentioned that you may be able to get the Sheriff's department to relieve
her of her duties once she is appointed to the AFABA. She feels a
resonsibility to not walk out on them, but if you could get them to agree they
don't need her to finish their budget request, that would be great.
You and I are going to need to meet with Pam. This is one of those times where
I clearly want your assistance and involvement becuase one, she I suspect she
is not going to be happy and two, I need her see that you and I are united on
this issue. I am also contemplating some assignment changes that you and I
will need to talk about. I suspect these will not make Pam happy either.
By the way, Pam asked again about what salary I had recommended in her
reclass. I told her the midpoint ($90k) and she was mildly unhappy. She feels
she should be in the 100k range. I have not idea of how she came up with
that. Needless to say, I would have never agreed to something like that, but I
just sat and listened and told her the primary goal was to get the reclass
appoved without raising any red flags with the Board. She will be upset about
there being an AFABA (and it not being her) and she will be upset that the
AFABA is also appointed at the midpoint. I am comfortable with what we are
doing and if you and I stick together, I think it will blow over.
Other than that, Molly and I talked a little bit about current assignments and
possibilities for making some changes, office location, the fact she wants a
printer in her office and pre-scheduled vacation days. We had a good visit. I
think she will be a good addition and a pleaure to work with.
I spent an hour and half today in Walker's office meeting with some company
that is in the business of doing business turnarounds (MPM). Ugh. I got a
confidential, top secret, promise not share, document from the Bernatz that

CArcher_Email3011895

lays out the proposed settlement. There were some signficant surprises in it
as I suspected there would be.

Thanks Alex.
As it stands currently, I will be out of town from May 14th-17th (2007) for my
parents to have a kidney transplant.
I hope to return to work on Friday, May 18, 2007.
These dates could shift slightly given special medical treatments that have to
take place daily for preparation of the actual transplant. These treatments
continue up until the day before the transplant takes place.
This means that I will miss the actual bond sale on Thursday, May 17, 2007.
But I will be back to assist Pam in some of the final editing for the Official
Statement.
Thank you for accommodating the leave.
I will be sure to discuss the type of time to be taken with Barb and Pam.

issue that he needs to take care of in April. It is right before the bond sale
so he was worried about taking the time off but he also needed to get tickets
before Pam gets back from vacation. I said it was fine for him to take the time
off given the circumstance and that taking care of his family situation was
more important right now. He will be back for the bond sale.
Please let me know if you have any questions. He will give Pam the specific
dates when he gets back.

2007 Budget Adjustments

We have completed our analysis of the impact of the 2007 adopted Budget as it relates to staffing
of your department.
The Board recently approved providing DAS authorization to adjust department budgets to
provide sufficient funding for non-represented pay increases and costs associated with the DC48
labor contract. In addition, the Board authorized DAS to make adjustments to department salary
and fringe benefit accounts to correct technical errors that occurred related to lump sum
adjustments made during the budget and to capture health care and other fringe savings resulting
from provisions adopted in the budget and provisions in the settled labor contracts. As a result of
these adjustments, the DTPW-Facilities Management budget will be adjusted by an increase in
budget authority for salary of $1,058,227 and social security of $80,959 and by a decrease in the
fringe benefit budget by $462,858 for a net increase of $676,328.
The above noted adjustments are sufficient to fund the non-represented pay increases authorized
by the Board in January 2007 and the increases resulting from the recently settled DC48 contract
for all authorized positions (vacant or filled) in Facilities Management. In addition, these
adjustments will fully-fund Facility Management’s 2007 fringe costs associated with all
authorized positions in Facilities Management. However, our analysis indicates that there are
insufficient projected fringe savings to fully-fund the positions that were partially unfunded or
lump summed during the budget process.
As adopted, the 2007 Budget restored position authority for 72 FTE in Facilities Management
and reallocated $2,615,921 from contract services and provided $750,000 in funding for the
restored positions. The funding provided was sufficient to fund the salary and social security
costs of approximately 52 FTE, leaving 20 FTE unfunded in the department. Full-funding the
salary and social security costs associated with the 20 FTE would require an appropriation of
approximately $760,000 million above the $676,328 million provided above. To date, we have
not identified sufficient countywide savings to reallocate towards funding this shortfall.
I am requesting that you prepare and submit to DAS a staffing plan to meet Facilities
Management’s operational needs for the remainder of the year. The plan should include

CArcher_Email3011906

Page 2

positions that you deem critical to fill as well as your projected hourly worker hours. Once
completed, we can compare the cost of your staffing plan to your budget as adjusted above to
determine the actual size of the projected deficit. It is my hope that this can be done quickly so
we can move ahead on processing the paperwork allowing you to fill your vacant positions.
To be clear, I am not requiring Facilities Management to hold all currently vacant positions
vacant as a means of balancing your salary budget. However, given the current budget situation
and the fact that any deficit in Facilities Management will have to be absorbed countywide, it is
important that we work to minimize the size of the expected salary shortage in your department.
This will require holding some level of positions vacant during 2007 or identifying other savings
within your department to offset at least some of the costs of filling the unfunded vacancies.
In closing, I understand this is not an ideal situation. However, instead of requiring you to hold
an arbitrary number of positions vacant to minimize the expected deficit, I am asking that you
work with DAS to determine a plan of action that meets the needs of Facilities Management
while recognizing the fiscal constraints we are under.
Please submit your staffing plan and request to fill positions to Alex Kotze, DAS Budget Unit
Manger. If you have questions regarding the above or would like to meet to discuss this issue,
don’t hesitate to contact me.

for salary by $1,715,445 and social security by $131,228 and by decreasing your fringe benefit
budget by $707,241 for a net increase of $1,139,432.
The above noted adjustments are sufficient to fund the non-represented pay increases authorized

insufficient projected fringe savings to fully-fund the positions that were partially unfunded or

As adopted, the 2007 Budget restored position authority for 43 FTE in the parks department and
provided $750,000 in funding for the restored positions. The funding provided was sufficient to
fund the salary and social security costs of approximately 10 FTE, leaving 33 FTE unfunded in
your department. Full-funding the salary and social security costs associated with the 33 FTE
would require an appropriation of approximately $1.3 million above the $1.7 million provided
above. To date, we have not identified sufficient countywide savings to reallocate towards
funding this shortfall.
I am requesting that you prepare and submit to DAS a staffing plan to meet the Parks
Department’s operational needs for the approaching season. The plan should include positions
that you deem critical to fill as well as your projected seasonal hours. Once completed, we can

compare the cost of your staffing plan to your budget as adjusted above to determine the actual
size of the projected deficit. It is my hope that this can be done quickly so we can move ahead

To be clear, I am not requiring the Parks Department to hold all currently vacant positions vacant
as a means of balancing your salary budget. There is wide recognition and support for ensuring
the Park’s Department is staffed sufficiently to meet the expectations of Milwaukee County
residents. However, given the current budget situation and the fact that any deficit in the Parks
Department will have to be absorbed countywide, it is important that we work to minimize the
size of the expected salary shortage in your department. This will require holding some level of
positions vacant during 2007 or identifying other savings within your department to offset at

James, please see below. I gave Alex two certs for Facilities. The goal it to
figure out what we think they need to fill, get agreement on how many they will
hold vacant so we can estimate the size of their salary and SS deficit. Please

CMO surplus
Tuesday, April 10, 2007 10:05:32 AM

Dan, I would like you to follow up with Scott Manske and folks from aging on
the excess CMO funds we met about a week or so ago. I would like you and Scott
to develop options for the accelerated payback of the "county loan" while
preserving an appropriate amount of reserves in the CMO. If they were to pay
the whole amount in 2007, how much would that add to our bottom line. If we
spread the amount between 2007 and 2008 what would be the impact in each year.
I think if we are going to move ahead on this, we should plan for the May Board
Cycle.
Come see me if needed.

Cindy Archer, DAS-Fiscal and Budget Administrator

SUBJECT:

2008 Budget Instructions

Attached are the instructions for the development of 2008 Operating and Capital Department
Budget Requests. The instructions include information regarding the preparation of the annual
budget and copies of required schedules and forms. The due date for budget submission by
Departments is noted on the attached.
There are several changes noted in the attached that I would like to highlight.
Fringe Benefit Distribution – You will recall that last year the method of allocating fringe costs
was changed to a flat dollar amount per FTE from the historical percentage of salary method.
The 2007 budget included an amendment directing County Board, Department of Audit and
DAS staff to study alternative options to allocate fringe benefit costs to department budgets.
Based on this review and based on the premise that health care costs are incurred on a flat per
employee basis and pension costs are a function of salary, the Board approved the workgroup’s
recommendation to allocate fringe costs in the 2008 budget process using a hybrid allocation
method. Consequently, fringe costs in the 2008 budget are being allocated on a flat dollar
amount per FTE for health costs and a percentage of salary for pension costs. Adopting this
hybrid approach better reflects the manner in which costs are actually incurred by the County.
Treatment of Fringe Costs when Adding or Deleting Positions – A portion of the County’s
fringe costs are related to health and pension costs associated with retirees. These costs are fixed
and remain with the County regardless of the addition or deletion of positions. The fringe
benefit costs allocated as noted above includes both the fixed retiree component and the active
employee component. For the 2008 budget, as positions are added or deleted in your budget
requests, the BRASS budget system will adjust the fringe benefit cost for only the active
component of fringe costs – the fixed component of the fringe cost will not change as positions
are added or deleted. At the end of the budget process, the fringe costs for departments will be
redistributed based on the final staffing patterns of departments.
Reconciliation of Authorized Positions – The 2008 base budget includes all positions currently
authorized in the BRASS budget system (including positions that were unfunded in 2007). If
departments wish to continue to unfund positions in 2008 that were unfunded in 2007, your
request should reflect which positions are being unfunded.

CArcher_Email3011945

Page 2

In addition to the above, we have identified a significant discrepancy between positions
authorized in the budget system and those included in the ______ HR system. The 2008 budget
instructions include the steps we will be undertaking to resolve this discrepancy. In short,
regardless of funding status, your budget requests should include all currently authorized
positions for your department. DAS will provide each department with a list of authorized
positions from the ____ HR system and your assigned Fiscal and Management Analysts will
work with each department to reconcile position discrepancies between budget and HR.
Vacancy and Turnover Savings – The 2008 budget allows departments to lump sum salary
savings anticipated through vacancies and turnover in an amount not to exceed 5% of budgeted
salary.
Crosscharges – Each department will be provided a levy target. Crosscharges that are abatable
must be absorbed within the charging department’s levy target. Non-abatable crosscharges in
2008 must be held at the 2007 level unless the receiving department has requested a significant
service change. The 2008 levy targets will not be adjusted for increases in crosscharges,
therefore departments receiving the charges should not be required to absorb non-abatable
charges unless warranted by a service change.
Levy Targets – Department’s will receive their levy targets on Wednesday, April 18, 2007
As you begin to prepare your 2008 Budget Requests, please be aware that DAS staff are
available to assist you in any way possible. BRASS training will be held ______ and _____.
Please do not hesitate to contact me directly or your assigned Fiscal and Management Analyst as
issues arise.

        2008 Budget





Attached is the draft budget 2008 budget calandar.
Also, I am working on 2008 revenue and expenditure projections for 2008 as
part of the 5-year County outlook. As I mentioned at the Cabinet meeting this
morning, I am asking that you notify me of any signficant changes, particularly
in the area of revenues for your department, that you anticipate for 2008.
Please keep in mind that I am not asking for a complete analysis of your
revenues, I am only asking for items that are significant and that you are
currently aware of. My main focus at this point is in updating state and
federal aid estimates that you may be aware of. This information will be
included in the projections that we will be providing to our bond rating
agencies in several weeks. Please email updates to Catherine Koper at
[email protected]. by Friday, April 13th.
Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

        Web Site Access Blocking starting on April 16th





Susan and Bill - here is an email you could give to employees.
To All
Cindy Archer and myself met with IMSD staff to discuss the County's use of the
internet. They have been working with all County departments to try to reduce
the accessing of non-work related websites. As a result, they have hired a
firm to provide a list of websites that should be blocked from County employee
use.    The websites have been broken up into groups which are listed below.
Beginning on Monday April 16, 2007, websites which are deemed to relate to any
of the groups below will be blocked from County employee usage.
You will receive the following message if you are blocked from a website that
has been deemed to be inappropriate. If you feel that you should have access
to the website, please talk to your manager, who will discuss the issue with me.
CArcher_Email3011950

Milwaukee County Internet Usage policy restricts access to this web page at
this time. If you have a legitimate business reason to visit this site, please
contact your manager. Only your manager is authorized to contact the IMSD Help
Desk for changes to this policy.
Per IMSD Types of Websites to be Blocked
Internet content filtering will block access to "inappropriate" web sites which
are defined by the following general categories for Milwaukee County:
Adult Material
Gambling
Games
Society and Lifestyles - Personals and Dating
Violence
Internet Radio and TV
Internet Telephony
Peer to Peer file sharing
Personal Storage and Backup
Streaming Media
Blocking of internet communication - web chat and web based email (non Lotus
Notes) - will be an individual department decision.
Exceptions to the web site blocking will be dealt with on a case by case basis,
with emphasis on the direction provided by the department management.

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
INTEROFFICE COMMUNICATION

DATE

: April 11, 2007

TO

: Milwaukee County Department Heads

FROM

: Cynthia Archer, Fiscal & Budget Administrator

SUBJECT

: Service Agreements for Non-abatable crosscharges
As in 2007, crosscharging departments will require documented service agreements
from departments receiving services. The Department of Administrative ServicesFiscal Affairs is requiring all cross-charging organizations that issue non-abated charges
to provide a disclosure document to the receiving department(s) that defines the direct
services and the associated costs of supplying the service. The disclosure must also
include a schedule of when the charges will be debited from the purchasing
department(s) cross-charge account(s) (i.e. bi-weekly, monthly, or quarterly).
All non-abateable crosscharges should be held at the 2007 level unless a significant
service change has been requested. 2008 Tax Levy targets have not been adjusted for
any increases in crosscharges, therefore departments receiving the charges should not
have to absorb them unless warranted by a service change.
The service agreement is required to contain the authorizing signatures of each
department head for the supplying and receiving organizations. A copy of the approved
agreement should be forwarded to the Department of Administrative Services.

Budget Computer System (BRASS)
The 2008 Budget will be prepared in the Budget Reporting and Analysis Support System
(BRASS), which includes information entered in the SBFS (Salary and Benefits Forecasting
System). Detailed technical BRASS instructions are included in this manual.
Also included with this manual is a list of important changes and highlights for the 2008 BRASS
program as compared to 2007.
Salary and Benefits Forecasting System (SBFS)
The Salary and Benefits Forecasting System (SBFS) is used to develop the annual costs for
personal services. SBFS contains the base budget for personal services consisting of all
authorized positions. The SBFS base is derived from the 2007 Adopted Personal Services
Budget.
The 2008 Requested Budget for personal services in BRASS will be generated by the
combination of the posted SBFS records and any changes entered by a department on a BRASS
Position Tab. Additional Personnel/SBFS information and instructions are contained in the
Position Tab section below.
Budget Narrative Format
County Departments are required to submit a budget request in the same budget format as the
current adopted budget. The Department of Administrative Services (DAS) will provide a copy
of the 2007 Adopted Budget narrative in Microsoft Word to departments to assist them in
fulfilling this requirement. The Requested Budget narrative should highlight any changes or new
initiatives compared to the 2007 Adopted Budget.
Work Volume Statistics for 3 years prior to the next year’s estimate must be submitted with the
budget request, and should be included in the Department’s Budget Narrative.
Organizational Charts
Two copies of the department’s organization chart are to be submitted to DAS by Monday, June
4, 2007. Organizational charts must be submitted using the Visio software, which was installed
on all BRASS machines. All 2008 requested personnel changes should be reflected in the
organizational chart. More detailed instructions will be sent under a separate memo from DAS.
Crosscharge Instructions
For services provided by County departments to other County departments, a crosscharge should
be issued to properly allocate the expense. Pursuant to Procedure 4.02 (2)(b) of the County
Administrative Manual, department administrators providing services to other County
departments are to notify the various departments directly of the amount they should include in
their budget requests for such services unless the crosscharge is posted directly to departmental
budgets in the BRASS system. Please see Appendix A for additional information.

CArcher_Email3011959

Please submit the following to your Fiscal and Management Analyst, Fiscal Affairs, Courthouse
- Room 308:
1. A copy of your communication to the various departments.
2. A copy of your worksheet that details how the budget charges were computed and allocation
methodology (required of all departments regardless of written communications or BRASS
posting).
Please see the April 11, 2007 memo regarding crosscharges for more information on required
documentation.
Departments that are reorganizing in 2008 should contact all departments that it receives a
crosscharge from to inform them of the new organizational structure to ensure that valid
organizational units are being charged in BRASS on a Crosscharge Budget Form.
2007 Position Actions
Any reclasses, abolish/creates or other personnel actions approved by the County Board from
December 2006 through May 2007 must be entered into the 2008 Requested Budget by
departments on a BRASS Position Tab.
Personal Services Lumpsum Reduction
The 2008 Requested Budget should include a personal services lumpsum reduction not to exceed
5% of a department’s gross salary as it appears in SBFS. This reduction should represent natural
vacancy and turnover savings and should not be associated with specific positions.
Operating Authority & Purpose
Review the Operating Authority and Purpose description in the current adopted budget write-up
and reflect any required changes.
Required Schedules and Forms
All departments are required to submit additional schedules and forms to provide policymakers
with detailed information on certain items for their review. To assist in the preparation of the
required schedules and forms, the BRASS system contains detail boxes, which allow users to
enter additional information directly into BRASS. Detail boxes must be completely filled out
with as much information as possible.

PCs for individual agencies.

8

CArcher_Email3011961

Schedule of Lease Agreements - New Leases
County Board Resolution File Number 94-614 requires that any request for a new lease
transaction must be identified and approved during the budget process. Items or requests for
leases not specifically identified on the schedule require separate County Board approval prior to
Procurement approving or developing any lease agreements. A Schedule of Continuing Leases
must also be submitted. The total amounts listed on the Schedule of New Leases and the
Schedule for Continuing Leases must match the amounts included in BRASS for objects 6502,
6503, 6505 and 6507.
Certification of Requested Expenditures, Revenues, Tax Levy and Positions
Department Directors are required to certify in writing that the requested expenditures, revenues,
tax levy and positions, as they appear in BRASS and SBFS, are the department's official request.
This certification also indicates that the information submitted, including all supporting
schedules, conforms to the instructions in Budget Procedure 4.02; and the documentation
submitted adequately justifies the department's request.
5 and 10% Tax Levy Cut Plans
County Board Resolution File Number 90-1052 requires that all department and agency directors
submit as part of their Requested Budget a supplemental report identifying alternative
program/service levels. This supplemental report must include, in priority order, additional 5%
and 10% tax levy reductions beyond the maximum tax levy request limit and specific definition
of the consequences of reduced funding or not funding a particular service or program.
Vehicle Assignment Form
County Ordinance 56.22 directs the Department of Administrative Services to conduct an annual
review of County vehicle assignments as part of the budget process. All departments having use
of a passenger car are to submit to DAS, no later than July 20, a report covering the previous 12
months and providing the number and garaging location of vehicles assigned to the department,
along with their use. One form is to be prepared for each County-owned passenger vehicle
assigned to a department.
Schedule of Fees and Charges
Budget requests must include a schedule of fees and charges which contains the following:
1.
2.
3.
4.

The Statutory Authority or Ordinance under which the charge is authorized
Description of the service or good for which the fee is charged
Current-year (2007) fees and costs
Proposed (2008) fees and unit costs

Facility/Space Utilization/Need Plan (FSUNP)
Pursuant to County Board Resolution 99-542, each Department must submit a Facility/Space
Utilization/Need Plan (FSUNP) as part of its annual budget request. Please submit any changes
to your department’s 2007 submittal.

9

CArcher_Email3011962

Equipment and Capital Price Lists
Each year, DAS develops a standard price list for all equipment purchases during 2008. The
price lists are then entered into the BRASS system. When a department is requesting funds in
BRASS to purchase equipment, BRASS will automatically calculate and post the cost as
indicated in the equipment price list table for the chosen object. The Equipment Price List is
included in Appendix I.
Capital Definitions
The per unit cost for non-computer capital equipment must exceed $2,500 and have a useful life
greater than one year in order to be capitalized. Computer related equipment must exceed
$1,000 to be considered a capital purchase. Equipment not meeting this definition must be
expensed. BRASS provides pull-down lists by object for those items included in the standard
County equipment price list to assist you in meeting this requirement.
If an operating department needs to charge a capital project, the appropriate project number and
object need to be charged. All operating costs charged to the Capital Projects Fund require the
approval of the County Controller to ensure that these expenses conform with the requirements
of the County tax rate limit.
Guidelines for Distribution and Submittal of Requested Budget

HIGHLIGHTS OF CHANGES INCLUDED IN 2008 BRASS/SBFS
Schedule of Fees and Charges
In 2008, ALL Requested Budgets must include a schedule of fees and charges which contains the
following:
•
•
•
•

The Statutory Authority or Ordinance under which the charge is authorized
Description of the service or good for which the fee is charged
Current-year (2007) fees and costs
Proposed (2008) fees and unit costs

Object 9799/9899
Please note, in 2008, the 9799/9899 crosscharge combination is not allowed. If you historically
used those objects, please call your DAS Analyst to get a new crosscharge/abatement number
pair.
Non-Abateable Crosscharges
All non-abateable crosscharges should be held at the 2007 level unless a significant service
change has been requested. 2008 Tax Levy targets have not been adjusted for any increases in
crosscharges, therefore departments receiving the charges should not have to absorb them unless
warranted by a service change.
Personal Computers
Due to the per unit cost of personal computers, Departments must purchase personal computers
in their operating budgets in 2008. The IMSD budget will not include funding for PCs for
individual agencies.
Current Year Position Actions
All December 2006, January 2007, February 2007, March 2007 and May 2007 approved position
actions (including reclasses and abolish/creates) must be entered into the 2008 Requested Budget
by Departments. All position actions done after the 2008 Requested Budget is submitted to DAS
will be entered by DAS.
Personal Computer Purchases
Departments will be responsible for purchasing their own personal computers in 2008. IMSD
will no longer be funding any computer purchases for individual agencies. Departments will
need to budget for any anticipated personal computer equipment acquisitions in their own
Requests.
Wage Increases
All average salaries include steps (1.5% increase) for all non-ECP and elected positions and pay
increases as follows:

11

CArcher_Email3011964

AFSCME DC-48:
5.08% for retro wage increase (2006 and 2007)
1% for April 6, 2008
1% for June 29, 2008
1% for October 5, 2008
Non-Rep and all other Unions:
1.00% for retro (2007)
1% for April 6, 2008
1% for June 29, 2008
1% for October 5,2008
ECP and Elected Officials:
No wage increase was included.
Note: These increases are included in the 2008 Base Budget and should not be entered by
departments.
2008 Fringe Benefits
In 2008, fringe benefits have been divided into two categories. One category is Health Care,
which consists of employee health care, dental, life insurance and all other non-pension fringe
benefit costs. The 2008 fixed cost per FTE is $26,822 for this fringe benefit category. The
second category is pension and includes pension related costs. This is charged as a percentage of
salary and comes to 19.86% for 2008.
To find the total fringe for 2008, run a 2008 SBFS Title Code (0) report and look in the Health
Care and Pension columns. The Health Care amount is the fixed rate times the number of FTEs
in that Title Code and the Pension amount is the total salary dollars times the percentage amount.
When a position is created, abolished or unfunded, only the health care and pension costs related
to an active employee will be moved with the position. The legacy health care and pension costs
will stay in the department (at the low-org level) as a fixed cost.
Any Department planning significant movement of positions (10 or more) between low orgs
must submit a list of those changes to their DAS – Fiscal Affairs analyst for entry into the
BRASS system. Due to the new methodology of calculating fringe benefits, this will keep the
total fringe benefit cost associated with a position in the proper low-org and avoid un-necessary
clean-up in later stages of the budget. This list must be provided to DAS by June 5, 2007.
Re-funding of Positions Unfunded in the 2007 Adopted Budget
All positions unfunded in the 2007 Adopted Budget have been restored as part of the 2008 Base
Budget. No additional levy has been distributed to departments to account for the re-funding of
these positions. If departments decide to unfund positions in 2008, this should be reflected on the
Personnel Changes table in the budget narrative.
A list of positions unfunded in Adopted Budgets from 2006 or previous years will be distributed
to departments under separate cover. Positions on this list were not restored to the 2008 Base
12

CArcher_Email3011965

Budget, but are still listed as unfunded in DAS- HR Position Control. Any positions on this list
not restored by Departments in the 2008 Request will also be considered abolished. No action
will be required by Departments to allow these positions to be abolished.
Position Reconciliation
In an effort to reconcile authorized positions in BRASS to position control as maintained by
DAS – Human Resources, each department is required to use HR listings of positions to update
the 2008 BRASS position records.

DETAIL TECHNICAL BRASS/SBFS INSTRUCTIONS
Access to BRASS
During the 2008 Budget process you will have access to 2007 and 2008. In 2007 you can run
reports, spreadsheet views and get data regarding your 2007 Adopted Budget but you will not
have access to budget forms. If you need help with BRASS at any time during the budget
process, please call your DAS Analyst first. They will be able to help with most issues and can
get you in contact with someone else if they are unable to solve the issue at hand.
Logging on to BRASS
1.

Double click the BRASS icon.

2. Select the appropriate database. TEST is being used for training. You will log in to 2008
during your budget preparation. 2007 will also be available in 2008, therefore you can access
all data from the 2007 Budget.

3. Type in your three-digit user id and password. Your user id is generally your initials. If you
have forgotten your password, please call your DAS analyst to have it reset. Note: Most
people do not have a password.

Budget Forms: Introduction
Budget Forms are used to develop your Requested Budget. This includes revenue and
expenditure changes and position adjustments. The combination of the 2008 base budget and all
of your department’s budget forms should make up your final 2008 Requested Budget. Your
entire budget is best viewed using Spreadsheet Views and Reports. The entries in BRASS are
considered to be your Requested Budget amounts. If the numbers in the narrative do not match
BRASS, the BRASS numbers will be treated as the budgeted amounts. Therefore it is important
that all entries made in BRASS are checked against your narrative.
1. Access Budget Forms from the BRASS/Budget Forms menu.

There are four budget forms used this year. 1A Operating Budget Form is used for all
operating budget entries including position adjustments. 1B Crosscharge Budget Form is used
for county-wide crosscharging departments. Note that internal 9700/9800 crosscharges should
be entered on the 1A Operating Budget Form. 1C Capital Form by Project and 1D Capital
Form by Org is used for Capital Budgets. You may not see all of these forms depending on
your BRASS security level.
2. The Budget Form Selection screen displays the available budget forms.

two budget forms: one for any base budget changes and one for position changes. They could
be named as follows:
1151 – Base Budget Changes
1151 – Position Changes
If you enter changes for a larger department you may need more than two budget forms. You
can establish budget forms by low-org and/or by account series. For example:
1157 – Position Changes
1157 – Changes in the 6000s

Audit Trail section for more information. Note: Sometimes the Total
Cost on the Audit trail is incorrect. To solve this, save and close the
form then re-open it.

Description
This determines what the totals on the form calculate. Net Cost will
subtract revenues from expenditures in the blue italicized totals. This is
the default setting. Sum Exp will sum only Expense Objects, Sum Rev
will sum only Revenue objects. This does not in any way affect your
budget request, it is a display-only field on the budget form.

field.

Note: In 2008, if you choose an Org that is inactive in Brass (as determined by the departments)
you will get an error message when you save the form. You must choose an active org to save
the form.
Note: Please make sure that you use valid activity codes for your department. Using activity
codes assigned to another department will result in incorrect reports unless you ask for all
countywide activities.
Tip: When making changes in BRASS to objects, please check the object string (low
org/fund/object/activity) by running an object detail report so you are aware of all object/activity
combinations. You can also zoom in on an object in a Spreadsheet View where the activity code
is displayed. In the past, departments have made reductions to objects without including the
activity code. This has resulted in negative entries in positive objects, causing problems.
Inserting a Line
To Insert a new line in the Budget Form, Click Insert. The line will be inserted below the line
where the hand pointer is.

Using Detail Boxes
Objects that require Detail Boxes are listed in Appendix C. If you select one of these objects,
you cannot enter data in the Change Amt field. Instead, a detail box will appear at the bottom of
the screen.
Note: Objects that require detail boxes will not have a Base Budget amount therefore the change
amount will be the total requested amount.
Professional Services (P) detail boxes are mainly used for contractual and professional service
objects.
Detail (D) and Fixed Assets (F) detail boxes are used for fixed assets and are intended for use
with all items defined as equipment (i.e., over $2,500 or over $1,000 for computer related
equipment). This includes many of the objects in the 8500 series. (See Appendix I for a list of
2008 Equipment Prices)

Average Salary and Wage Increases
In 2008, all positions are budgeted by average salary, which is determined by the Title Code and
Low Org. All average salaries were calculated based on the 2007 Adopted Budget and include
steps (1.5% increase) for all non-ECP and elected positions and pay increases as follows:
AFSCME DC-48:
5.08% for retro wage increase (2006 and 2007)
1% for April 6, 2008
1% for June 29, 2008
1% for October 5, 2008
Non-Rep and all other Unions:
1.0% for retro (2007)
1% for April 6, 2008
1% for June 29, 2008
1% for October 5,2008
ECP and Elected Officials:
No wage increase was included.
Note: These increases are included in the 2008 Base Budget and should not be entered by
departments.
Example of Average Salary Record in SBFS:
2007 Actual Position:
John Smith, TC 00001, Low Org 1157, Salary = 30,000 (Step 1)
Jane Smith, TC 00001, Low Org 1157, Salary = 32,000 (Step 3)
Jackie Smith, TC 00001, Low Org 1157, Salary = 31,000 (Step 2)
2008 Budget Record:
TC 00001, Low Org 1157, FTE= 3, Average Salary = 31,000 (Plus Step and Raise)
Note: This change eliminated the need for SBFS cleanup. No Steps are used in 2008, instead,
the Step Field is used to find the average salary by Low Org.
Note: On SBFS reports, the Count is not a meaningful number. The FTE is used to determine the
number of positions in a given department.

28

CArcher_Email3011981

Note: Do not make any changes on the General Tab that have to do with positions. All changes
and adjustments should be made on the Position Tab.
WARNING: When you open a Budget Form, a blank line is generated on the General Tab. If
you make entries on the Position Tab and then try and Save the form you will get an Error
Message. Click OK on the Error Message and then put the hand-pointer on the blank line (as in
the screen print above) and click Delete. Click Save.
Special Premium, Shift Differential, Overtime and PSLumpsum (V&T)
In 2008, Special Premium, Shift Differential, Overtime or PSLumpsum amounts must be entered
on a Position Tab since they were not rolled from the 2007 Budget. You must enter in the
budgeted FTEs and salaries for these special position categories on a position tab.
Special Premium (SPREM) should be used to account for adjustments in average salary, as well
as increased dollars associated with proposed reclasses or reallocations.
It is required in 2008 that you enter a description of any Special Premium entry on the
Justification Tab, including the Title Code associated with the Average Salary that you are
adjusting.

WARNING: Do not hit the Enter key while in the Justification Tab. This will exit your Budget
Form and has also caused BRASS to shut down. To go to the next line, hold down the Control
key and press Enter
Shift Differential (SHIFT) and Overtime (OTIME) should be used to budget dollars associated
with those pay rates.

29

CArcher_Email3011982

PSLumpsum (PSLUMPSUM) is used to budget for expected vacancy and turnover (positions
that you intend to keep vacant should not be accounted for here – they should instead be
unfunded or abolished).
1. Follow the same steps as adding a normal position but the Class Code will be OTIME,
PSLUMPSUM, SHIFT or SPREM.

2. Enter the FTE and Cnt as listed in the above table.
3. The Salary will NOT load automatically for these Class Codes. You must enter in the Salary
Amount, which is determined by the Average Salary for your department. See Appendix E
for a list of 2008 Average Salaries.
To enter in these special title codes, you must enter the total salary amount for 1 FTE. This
will calculate the proper amount based on the FTE entered. For example, if your average
salary amount is $30,000, and you want $15,000 of overtime, enter an FTE of 50, Salary of
$30,000, click Calc and SBFS will calculate $15,000 in Salary (plus Social Security).
Re-funding of Positions Unfunded in the 2007 Adopted Budget
All positions Unfunded in the 2007 Adopted Budget have been restored as part of the 2008 Base
Budget. Any position unfunded two years in a row will be considered abolished, and should be
reflected as such in the Requested Budget Narrative. Positions abolished in the 2007 Adopted
Budget were not restored to the 2008 Base Budget, and remain abolished.
A list of positions unfunded in Adopted Budgets from 2006 or previous years will be distributed
to departments under separate cover. Positions on this list were not restored to the 2008 Base
Budget, but are still listed as unfunded in DAS- HR Position Control. Any positions on this list
not restored by Departments in the 2008 Request will also be considered abolished. No action
will be required by Departments to allow these positions to be abolished.
How to Search for Positions in SBFS
You can use the Position Search and Edit tool to search all position records in SBFS. The records
include information such as home org, title code, position number and average salary. This is
where SBFS clean-up was done in past years. You will not be able to edit records in this area but

Fringe Benefits and Other Position Issues
Fringe Benefits

32

CArcher_Email3011985

In 2008, fringe benefits have been divided into two categories. One category is Health Care,
which consists of employee health care, dental, life insurance and all other non-pension fringe
benefit costs. The 2008 fixed cost per FTE is $______ for this fringe benefit category. The
second category is pension and includes pension related costs. This is charged as a percentage of
salary and comes to ___% for 2008.
To find the total fringe for 2008, run a 2008 SBFS Title Code (0) report and look in the Health
Care and Pension columns. The Health Care amount is the fixed rate times the number of FTEs
in that Title Code and the Pension amount is the total salary dollars times the percentage amount.
When a position is created, abolished or unfunded, only the health care and pension costs related
to an active employee will be moved with the position. The legacy health care and pension costs
will stay in the department (at the low-org level) as a fixed cost. Below is an example of what
this change will look like in SBFS.
Insert Example from BRASS/SBFS
Any Department planning significant movement of positions (10 or more) between low orgs
must submit a list of those changes to their DAS – Fiscal Affairs analyst for entry into the
BRASS system. Due to the new methodology of calculating fringe benefits, this will keep the
total fringe benefit cost associated with a position in the proper low-org and avoid un-necessary
clean-up in later stages of the budget. This list must be provided to DAS by June 5, 2007.
Details regarding this issue will be sent under a separate cover.
Reclasses and Reallocations
In 2008, no position reclasses or position reallocations should be submitted for consideration in
the Requested Budget. These should be done, in conjunction with HR, during a normal Board
cycle.
Current Year Position Actions
In 2008,all December 2006, January 2007, February 2007, March 2007 and May 2007 approved
position actions (including reclasses and abolish/creates) must be entered into the 2008
Requested Budget by Departments. All position actions done after the 2008 Requested Budget is
submitted to DAS will be entered by DAS.
Temporary Class Codes
If a department is creating a new title code, please notify the BRASS System Administrator with
the proposed description, pay range and union category of the position and a temporary class
code will be assigned and entered into the budget system.
Note: Position Allocations will not be allowed in the 2008 Budget.

Cross Charges
For services provided by County departments to other County departments, a crosscharge should
be issued to properly allocate the expense. The Chart of Accounts provides a one-to-one
relationship for all crosscharge expenditures with a corresponding abatement (9800s) and/or
indirect revenue (3800s) depending upon whether the servicing department is in the General
Fund or is a Proprietary Fund.
Pursuant to Procedure 4.02 (2)(b) of the County Administrative Manual, department
administrators providing services to other County departments are to notify the various
departments directly of the amount they should include in their budget requests for such services
unless the crosscharge is posted directly to departmental budgets in the BRASS system.
Servicing departments that will be responsible for posting charges directly into user department
budgets should contact the appropriate individuals to make sure they have the correct low
organization units, funds and activity codes for departments receiving these services.
Please note, in 2008, the 9799/9899 crosscharge combination is not allowed. If you historically
used those objects, please call your DAS Analyst to get a new crosscharge/abatement number
pair.
See Appendix A for more info on crosscharges.
Note: All departments that internally allocate overhead costs, such as charging the Director’s
office to other divisions within its department or high organizational unit, should choose from
the internal expenditure abatement object combinations 9751 and 9851, 9755 and 9855, 9756
and 9856, 9757 and 9857 and 9759 and 9859. These objects should not be used for charges for
direct services provided.
Note: All non-abateable crosscharges should be held at the 2007 level unless a significant
service change has been requested. 2008 Tax Levy targets have not been adjusted for any
increases in crosscharges, therefore departments receiving the charges should not have to absorb
them unless warranted by a service change.
Creating a New Cross Charge Budget Form
Departments that provide services that are charged through a crosscharge object to other County
departments are required to automatically post the charge to the receiving department. See
Appendix A for a list of Crosscharge Posting Objects and Abatements.
2. Select 1B Crosscharge Budget Form from the Budget Form Selection and Click OK.

Please take some time to try different views to see what works best for you and your
department. Below are three examples:
Example 1: 1 REQ R3 Variance REPT

Note: The Spreadsheet Views that end in RPT or REPT are in a Report format and are sectioned
by the chosen criteria. Spreadsheet Views that do NOT end in RPT or REPT are sectioned by
tabs, similar to an Excel file with various worksheets.
Note: Spreadsheet Views that are labeled “R3” contain detail by object. Spreadsheet Views that
are labeled “R5” contain a summary objects such as Total Expenditures.

Running Reports
Reports are real-time queries of the BRASS application, including budgeted and actual revenues,
expenditures, and Salary and Benefits information. Reports differ from Spreadsheet Views in
several ways:
1. Reports can break data by High Org, Low Org, Fund, Activity, Object and Project. There
can be multiple subtotals and sorts. Spreadsheet Views show detail only by Object.
2. Reports can access Title level Salary and Benefits information versus Object summaries
in Spreadsheet Views.
3. You cannot "ZOOM" on Reports to Audit Trail level detail.
4. All Spreadsheet Views are exportable to Excel. Only specified Reports may be exported.
5. Reports tend to be more heavily formatted for publication.
BRASS Reports
1. Access BRASS reports from the BRASS/Reports menu.

45

CArcher_Email3011998

2. Select the Report to run and click OK.
Note: Reports ending with (0) will break/subtotal by the Org you select when you run the report.

SBFS Projections
SBFS Projection Snapshots are ways for Departments to run test scenarios for their position
budgets. In most cases, Departments should run Reports and use County Wide snapshots instead
of creating new Snapshots. Departments can enter their organization, fund, and activity criteria
when they run reports, which will result in the same data as running reports on their own
snapshots.
Below is a list of Snapshots run County wide by DAS which can be used:
• 2008 Base SBFS (This is the base that departments start with for the 2008 Budget)
• 2008 Modified (Will be updated throughout the Budget process and will include the Base
Budget plus any changes made on Budget Forms prior to Projection date)
• 2008 Modified BRASS Only (Will be updated throughout the Budget process and will
include only changes made on a Position Tab prior to the Projection date)
• 2008 REQ SBFS BRASS (This is run after departments submit their Requested Budget to
DAS)
• 2008 REQ BRASS Only (This is run after departments submit their Requested Budget to
DAS, contains only changes made on a Position Tab)
• 2008 CEX SBFS BRASS (This is run after the Recommended Budget is finished)
• 2008 CEX BRASS Only (This is run after the Recommended Budget is finished, contains
only changes made on a Position Tab)
• 2008 Adopted SBFS BRASS (This is run after the Board adopts the Budget)
• 2008 Adopted BRASS Only (This is run after the Board adopts the Budget, contains only
changes made on a Position Tab)

52

CArcher_Email3012005

An e-mail will be sent to all BRASS users when a new County-wide Snapshot is run.

APPENDICES
Appendix A: Crosscharge Calculation and Objects
Crosscharging Objects to be Used in 2008
Certain service departments that provide crosscharges, as identified below, are required to
automatically post the charge to the corresponding departments. This assists departments
receiving grant revenues, indirect revenues (internal service fund departments) or outside
(direct) revenues (e.g., Department of Child Support, Airport) by including the crosscharge
objects in calculating reimbursement revenue. It also provides a record in the budget of the
charge included for the revenue calculation. After revenues are determined, individual
departments that received the charge are responsible for reversing any abatable charges
(identified below) by utilizing the related abatement object. Revenues should continue to reflect
the cost of these crosscharges.
Abatement Object
(To reverse charge from budget)

Crosscharge Posting Object

Note: The Records Center cross-charge (9785) is no longer an abatable crosscharge. IMSD
will be contacting departments to explain the new system.
In addition to the above crosscharges, there are a number of crosscharges issued that are not
abated. Many of these crosscharges are entered on the BRASS crosscharge form.
Other departments required to post charges directly to user department budgets are DPWFacilities, DPW-Fleet Management, the Sheriff’s Department and DAS-Risk Management.
These charges, however, are not excluded or abated from the final budget requests. Receiving
departments do not need to take further action. Listed below are the objects that will
automatically be posted by these departments.
Crosscharge Posting Object
9704 - Fleet Management Services
9707 - Sheriff Charges
9719 - Risk Management Services

9778 - Workers’ Compensation Administrative Services
9784 - County Grounds Space Rental
Any 9700 accounts not included on these lists are used for intra-department charges (i.e.
charging operation costs to divisions) or for charges from other County departments that are not
entered by the charging department. In the latter case, a memo will be sent from the charging
department to the receiving department specifying the amount and object to be charged.
Note: Disadvantaged Business Development Services is a new operating crosscharge. CDBP
will be sending memos to departments which detail their operating crosscharge.

Crosscharge Procedures for 2008
All department administrators should be aware of DAS’ policy direction regarding internal
service charges as detailed below:
Service Agreement:
 Department administrators providing a service to another department must obtain a
service agreement from the department receiving the charge regarding the amount and
cost of the service to be provided. See the April 11, 2007 memo regarding crosscharges
for more information. A copy of the agreement regarding the crosscharge amount must be
sent to DAS – Fiscal.
 An agreement is not required for services that are fully abated by the receiving
department.
Unit Prices:
 An agreement is not required for unit prices, e.g., the unit price for a service is to be
established by the department providing the service using the procedure specified at the
start of this section. However, the servicing department should inform the receiving
department of the dollar amount of the unit charge and of the total to deliver the
negotiated level of service.
 It is not permissible to negotiate the cost of providing a unit of service. No "discounts"
will be permitted.
After obtaining a signed written agreement regarding the amount of service to be provided, the
servicing department is to notify the various departments of the amount they should include in
their budget requests by either posting the charge to their budgets in the BRASS system or
through a written communication.

59

CArcher_Email3012012

Detail of Objects to be Included and Excluded in Charges for Services
Departments charging out the cost of services provided to other County departments should
compute the amount of the crosscharge as follows:
 Calculate the total amount of expenditures to be incurred for the services provided. Lists of
which objects are to be included and excluded are detailed below.
 Calculate the total amount of all "outside" revenue (excluding revenues and/or crosscharges
to other County departments for services provided).
 Subtract the "outside" revenue (step #2) from the "included" appropriations (step #1). The
result is the amount to be charged to County departments to the appropriate 9700 object for
the services provided.

Appendix B: Objects
Negative Objects
The ADVANTAGE System requires that objects be defined as either positive or negative. This
means only positive entries can be made to positive objects and only negative entries can be
made to negative objects. It does not allow for objects to be entered as either positive or
negative entries. For example, previously, Direct Labor Transfer objects were used for both
positive and negative entries. In BRASS, there is now a separate object for Direct Labor
Transfers-In (5190, 5490) and Direct Labor Transfers-Out (5189, 5489). The net result of a
BRASS object entry needs to be positive for a positive object or negative for a negative object so
it can be interfaced to ADVANTAGE for establishment of beginning year budget appropriations
and transfer appropriations. While the BRASS system will accept negative entries in a positive
object, this data will be rejected when loaded into the ADVANTAGE system. Please review
your BRASS entries at the lowest level (including low-org, activity code and fund) to ensure you
do not have negative entries in positive objects or positive entries in negative objects.

Appendix E: PSLUMPSUM and 2008 Average Salary for FTE Calculation
The Personal Services lump sum reduction factors in items such as mid-year program changes,
use of temporary assignments to higher classifications (TAHCs), under-fills, normal vacancies
and the projected amount of time elapsed between vacancies and rehiring.
Note: PSLUMPSUM should not be used to account for positions intended to be held vacant for
the full budget year. These positions should instead be unfunded or abolished.
The difference between the total cost of personal services and the net salary budget must be
entered as a negative adjustment to SBFS on the Position Tab of a Budget Form. The SBFS
projection establishes the amount needed for all authorized positions. The lump sum adjustment
reduces this amount to a budgeted net amount for salaries. When entering the lump sum
adjustment, an FTE must also be entered to calculate a net departmental FTE. The formula for
calculating the lump sum adjustment FTE is the following:
Lump Sum Adjustment
=FTE (negative)
Average Salary Per Position
Note: For PSLUMPSUM you must enter the total salary amount for 1 FTE. This will calculate
the proper amount based on the FTE entered. For example, if your average salary amount is
$30,000, and you want $15,000 of PSLUMPSUM, enter an FTE of 50, Salary of $30,000, click
Calc and SBFS will calculate $15,000 in Salary (plus Social Security).
2008 County-wide Average Salary
Based on the 2007 Adopted SBFS, an average salary cost has been determined for each
department. This will allow for departments to calculate the FTE for shift differential, special
premium and overtime, as well as for the lump sum adjustment. Following is a listing of the
average salary cost by department:

Appendix J: Miscellaneous
Major Maintenance or Improvement Projects Greater Than $25,000
For each requested major maintenance or improvement project costing $25,000 or more, you
are required to submit a supplemental report with the following information included:
a. Project Description. Clearly describe the project and tell what it will accomplish.
Describe the project's location, size, general configuration, type of construction, required
furnishings, overall scope, etc. If the project financing is programmed for more than one
year, indicate by year how the requested appropriation will be used.
b. Justification. Describe anticipated benefits, project purpose and other additional
information as to why the project is considered necessary. Examples of the benefits of
replacing, improving or adding to an existing facility (physically and structurally
deteriorated or functionally inadequate) include eliminating a health or safety hazard, or
improving energy conservation. Include any further justification or rationale that you feel
is important to adequately assess the project. Consider possible economic, social
and/or environmental impacts of the project in the area served. Cost and revenue
comparisons should be emphasized if they could influence the evaluation of a project.
Emphasize the need for this project.

Gifts, Donations and Expendable Trusts
The budget request for Gifts and Donations should include an estimate of monetary gifts and
donations anticipated for the budget year. Gifts and donations may be for either an unrestricted
or restricted purpose.
1. Unrestricted Gifts and Donations
Unrestricted donations should be included in the departmental budget request to the extent
that such a donation can be reasonably anticipated. Receipt of unrestricted donations that
are unanticipated and received after budget adoption shall follow the Appropriation Transfer
procedure (see Section 4.05 of the County Administrative Manual). Unrestricted gifts and
donations may be expended by reducing the tax levy for current programs or for other
purposes deemed appropriate by the receiving department and approved by the County
Board.
2. Restricted Gifts and Donations
Restricted purpose gifts and donations shall be included in the department budget request
only if the requesting department can provide written documentation from the donor
regarding the amount of the gift and the specific purpose for which funds are to be
expended. The department should request the amount of expenditures required to fulfill the
purpose specified by the donor. Expenditures should be offset by the amount of the related
donation.

CArcher_Email3012029

3. Expendable Trust Funds
Expendable Trust Funds may be utilized only for purposes which are legally mandated or
where a formal trust relationship exists. The principal amount of the fund and the income
generated from the fund may be expended in the course of the fund’s designated operations.
Expendable Trust Funds must be established in accordance with Administrative Manual
Procedure 7.62(3), and are subject to the formal budgetary process. Once established, an
Expendable Trust Fund constitutes an independent organization unit. Appropriations and
revenue estimates for Expendable Trust Funds shall be requested in the same manner as
outlined in Procedure 4.02.

Cindy Archer, DAS-Fiscal and Budget Administrator

SUBJECT:

2008 Budget Instructions

Attached are the instructions for the development of 2008 Operating and Capital Department
Requested Budgets. The instructions include information regarding the preparation of the annual
budget and copies of required schedules and forms. The due date for budget submission by
Departments is noted in the attached.
There are several changes that I would like to highlight.
Fringe Benefit Distribution – In 2007, the fringe costs were allocated as a flat dollar amount
per FTE, instead of as a percentage of salary. The 2007 Budget included an amendment
directing County Board, Department of Audit and DAS staff to study alternative options to
allocate fringe benefit costs to department budgets. Based on this review and based on the
premise that health care costs are incurred on a flat per employee basis and pension costs are a
function of salary, the Board approved the workgroup’s recommendation to allocate fringe costs
in the 2008 Budget process using a hybrid allocation method. Consequently, fringe costs in the
2008 Budget are being allocated on a flat dollar amount per FTE for employee health care costs
and a percentage of salary for pension costs. Adopting this hybrid approach better reflects the
manner in which costs are actually incurred by the County.
Treatment of Fringe Costs when Adding or Deleting Positions – A portion of the County’s
fringe costs are related to health and pension costs associated with retirees. These costs are fixed
and remain with the County regardless of the addition or deletion of positions. The fringe
benefit costs allocated as noted above includes both the fixed retiree component and the active
employee component. For the 2008 Budget, as positions are added or deleted in your budget
requests, the BRASS budget system will automatically adjust the fringe benefit cost for only the
active component of health care and pension costs – the fixed components will not change. At
the end of the budget process, the fringe costs for departments will be redistributed based on the
final County-wide staffing .
Reconciliation of Authorized Positions – The 2008 Base Budget includes all positions
currently authorized in the BRASS budget system (including positions that were unfunded in
2007). If departments wish to continue to unfund positions in 2008 that were unfunded in 2007,
your request should reflect which positions are being unfunded.

CArcher_Email3012032

Page 2

In addition to the above, we have identified a significant discrepancy between positions
authorized in the budget system and those included in the Human Resources position control
system. The 2008 Budget instructions include the steps we will be undertaking to resolve this
discrepancy. In short, regardless of funding status, your budget requests should include all
currently authorized positions for your department. DAS will provide each department with a
list of authorized positions from the HR position control system and your assigned Fiscal and
Management Analysts will work with each department to reconcile position discrepancies
between budget and HR.
Vacancy and Turnover Savings – The 2008 budget allows departments to lump sum salary
savings anticipated through vacancies and turnover in an amount not to exceed 5% of budgeted
salary.
Crosscharges – Each department will be provided a levy target. Crosscharges that are abatable
must be absorbed within the charging department’s levy target. Non-abatable crosscharges in
2008 must be held at the 2007 level unless the receiving department has requested a significant
service change. The 2008 levy targets will not be adjusted for increases in crosscharges,
therefore departments receiving the charges should not be required to absorb non-abatable
charges unless warranted by a service change.
Levy Targets – Department’s will receive their levy targets on Wednesday, April 18, 2007
As you begin to prepare your 2008 Budget Requests, please be aware that DAS staff are
available to assist you in any way possible. BRASS training will be held on April 24 and April
30. Please do not hesitate to contact me directly or your assigned Fiscal and Management
Analyst as issues arise.

Parks question
Tuesday, April 10, 2007 5:33:32 PM

The Parks Department is saying with the transfers we have approved they can
fully staff their operational needs (probably with seasonals) without running a
deficit if we agree to not include them in the fringe break even process at the
end of the year. What impact would this have on other departments? Is this
something we should even consider doing? I suspect there are good policy
reasons for not allowing departments to use fringe savings during the year.
Let me know your thoughts. Thanks.

Parks staffing
Tuesday, April 10, 2007 5:44:01 PM

I understand you contacted Rob for a meeting on Thursday morning to disucss
your staffing situation and the memo I sent. I will not be able to make
Thursday. Alex and I can meet with you on Tuesday next week. In the mean time
if you have a proposal for us to look at please send it and we may be able to
resolve it sooner. Again, the goal is to reach agreement on what level of
staffing is required while recognizing we need to take steps to at least
minimize the size of the deficit for your department. Let me know when you
would be able to come over on Tuesday. Thanks
PS -- If you have certs over here that are critical, please call me. None are
on my desk at this time.

2008 levy targets
Tuesday, April 10, 2007 6:03:13 PM

I know you are being worked to death before you leave, but I am going to try to
give you some idea of the data I want to look at for purposes to setting levy
targets and perhaps someone can help you pull it together tomorrow.
First, I would like to see the 2007 Levy by Department (as I have defined
department -- not the subunits). My goal is set levy targets at the "big
department" level (e.g., one levy target for DHSS, one target for DAS, etc.).
Then if possible can we look at the incremental impact the wage adjustments
(union and nonrep) have on the individual department's and also the change in
FB by department from 2007 to 2008. (We probably need to talk about also if we
make manual adjustments for the unfunded positions in Parks and FM). What I
don't want to take into account are the $ for restoring unfunded positions we
did as part of the base. Not sure if this makes sense. We can talk.
We can discuss this. I know the fringe in 2007 is all balled up.

We were discussing our final budget projects in class today and one of my
classmates mentioned she was having trouble finding historical budget data for
Miwaukee County - in particular, the zoo. I talked to her after class and told
her I would try to help if I could. Would it be possible for you to have
someone email me a pdf document of whatever has been published in the adopted
county budget book for the zoo from 2001-2005? If it's easier to email a pdf
of the entire budget, that is fine too.
Let me know if you aren't comfortable asking your staff to do this.
Thanks,
Natalie

Meetings with rating agencies
Wednesday, April 11, 2007 9:30:51 AM

We are looking to schedule meetings with the three bond rating agencies the
week of April 30-May 4th. It is my understanding the CEX usually attends
these. Pam indicated that we should block off three-two hour periods for
these. Is it possible to get these plugged in so we can coordinate with the
rating agencies?

Mike, I am not ignoring you. We are trying to open up the Budget today and get
budget instructions out. I will call you on Friday to resolve our outstanding
issues. I will say after conversations with Board staff that the expectation
is that we have agreement (including debt schedules) from the Banks before we
advance anything to the Board. If you could expedite getting that, it would be
most helpful. Thanks.

2008 Budget





Attached is the draft budget 2008 budget calandar.
Also, I am working on 2008 revenue and expenditure projections for 2008 as
part of the 5-year County outlook. As I mentioned at the Cabinet meeting this
morning, I am asking that you notify me of any signficant changes, particularly
in the area of revenues for your department, that you anticipate for 2008.
Please keep in mind that I am not asking for a complete analysis of your
revenues, I am only asking for items that are significant and that you are
currently aware of. My main focus at this point is in updating state and
federal aid estimates that you may be aware of. This information will be
included in the projections that we will be providing to our bond rating
agencies in several weeks. Please email updates to Catherine Koper at
[email protected]. by Friday, April 13th.
Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Reciprocity status

Karen, I have yet to hear back on the status of my vacation as it relates to
the reciprocity agreement with the State. Under WRS I has five weeks
vacation. It was my understanding that this would carry-forward to Milwaukee
County. I am also interested in if my sick leave balances carry forward.
Thanks for your help.

Fw: ESCO Rpt for May Cycle
Wednesday, April 11, 2007 10:21:02 AM
ESCO Rpt Outline_4.05.07.doc
High

Rob, in light of your comments last night, I asked Chad to email the below
outline.    The directive from the Board states: "...directed Ms Bryant to
come back to the Committee at the May cycle with a summary of savings and
maintenance costs requirements related to all three contracts of the GESPC.
The report should clarify the savings and costs so all supervisors understand
the commitment required if we move forward with this initiative."
As we discussed, Pam has interpreted this as a full due diligence exercise.
Before you talk to Supervisor Dimitrijevic, we should discuss with Chad where
this is at and what your expectations are. I recall you saying that the
language above does not require full "due diligence". You input and guidance
on this one would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
PS -- I can assure you that when Pam gets back she will be directed to spend
her time on finishing the bond documents for the 2008 issue and preparing the
presentation for the rating agencies. This must be the top priority for her.
Chad will do fine if he has some guidance. Thanks.

        ESCO Rpt for May Cycle






CArcher_Email3012054

Per your request, I'm attaching an outline as a proposed approach to the ESCO
status report for the May cycle. In my mind Section II reflects the necessary
approach for a full due diligence. Pam has a copy of this attachment but we
have not had an opportunity to discuss it.
In terms of the report dealing with the individual ESCOs, I envision a brief
status on where the each of the ESCOs ended up in terms of facility locations,
Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs), and their projected dollar savings
(annually) by ECM.
Last, I wanted to know if you think it appropriate and manageable to have some
conversations with ESCO references (former clients) between now and when the
report is sent down. A synopsis of preliminary findings might or might not be
included in the report, depending on how you feel. What would be helpful to
know is how actively do these clients track and measure cost savings.
Thanks.

SUBJECT:

2008 Budget Instructions

Attached are the instructions for the development of 2008 Operating and Capital Department
Requested Budgets. The instructions include information regarding the preparation of the annual
budget and copies of required schedules and forms. The due date for budget submission by
Departments is noted in the attached.
There are several changes that I would like to highlight.
Fringe Benefit Distribution – In 2007, the fringe costs were allocated as a flat dollar amount
per FTE, instead of as a percentage of salary. The 2007 Budget included an amendment
directing County Board, Department of Audit and DAS staff to study alternative options to
allocate fringe benefit costs to department budgets. Based on this review and based on the
premise that health care costs are incurred on a flat per employee basis and pension costs are a
function of salary, the Board approved the workgroup’s recommendation to allocate fringe costs
in the 2008 Budget process using a hybrid allocation method. Consequently, fringe costs in the
2008 Budget are being allocated on a flat dollar amount per FTE for employee health care costs
and a percentage of salary for pension costs. Adopting this hybrid approach better reflects the
manner in which costs are actually incurred by the County.
Treatment of Fringe Costs when Adding or Deleting Positions – A portion of the County’s
fringe costs are related to health and pension costs associated with retirees. These costs are fixed
and remain with the County regardless of the addition or deletion of positions. The fringe
benefit costs allocated as noted above includes both the fixed retiree component and the active
employee component. For the 2008 Budget, as positions are added or deleted in your budget
requests, the BRASS budget system will automatically adjust the fringe benefit cost for only the
active component of health care and pension costs – the fixed components will not change. At
the end of the budget process, the fringe costs for departments will be redistributed based on the
final countywide staffing.
Reconciliation of Authorized Positions – The 2008 Base Budget includes all positions
currently authorized in the BRASS budget system (including positions that were unfunded in
2007). If departments wish to continue to unfund positions in 2008 that were unfunded in 2007,
your request should reflect which positions are being unfunded.

CArcher_Email3012059

Page 2

In addition to the above, we have identified a significant discrepancy between positions
authorized in the budget system and those included in the Human Resources position control
system. The 2008 Budget instructions include the steps we will be undertaking to resolve this
discrepancy. In short, regardless of funding status, your budget requests should include all
currently authorized positions for your department. DAS will provide each department with a
list of authorized positions from the HR position control system and your assigned Fiscal and
Management Analysts will work with each department to reconcile position discrepancies
between budget and HR.
Vacancy and Turnover Savings – The 2008 budget allows departments to lump sum salary
savings anticipated through vacancies and turnover in an amount not to exceed 5% of budgeted
salary.
Crosscharges – Each department will be provided a levy target. Crosscharges that are abatable
must be absorbed within the charging department’s levy target. Non-abatable crosscharges in
2008 must be held at the 2007 level unless the receiving department has requested a significant
service change. The 2008 levy targets will not be adjusted for increases in crosscharges,
therefore departments receiving the charges should not be required to absorb non-abatable
charges unless warranted by a service change.
Levy Targets – Departments will receive their levy targets on Wednesday, April 18, 2007. In
keeping with the County Executive’s intention to submit a Recommended Budget with no tax
levy increase, departments should generally anticipate that their requested budget targets will not
allow for a property tax levy increase. At minimum, therefore, departments will need to absorb
projected increases in wages and fringe benefits.
Collective Bargaining Agreements – If you are contemplating staffing changes as part of the
2008 Budget that may impact represented staff, please be sure to refer to the provisions of
recently approved collective bargaining agreements to ensure proposed modifications are
consistent with existing labor contracts. If you have questions regarding the provisions of labor
contracts, please contact Greg Gracz, Director of Labor Relations at 278-4852.
As you begin to prepare your 2008 Budget Requests, please be aware that DAS staff are
available to assist you in any way possible. BRASS training will be held on April 24 and April
30. Please do not hesitate to contact me directly or your assigned Fiscal and Management
Analyst as issues arise.

You should look at the Legislative Fiscal Bureau site on the state website. I
think the Gov budget includes increased funding for court grant program.....

At this time, it is too early to project any shortfalls or surpluses. We are
still waiting to see what the court support amount will be from the state once
the state budget is passed.

Budget



Attached is the draft budget 2008 budget calandar.
Also, I am working on 2008 revenue and expenditure projections for 2008 as
part of the 5-year County outlook. As I mentioned at the Cabinet meeting
this morning, I am asking that you notify me of any signficant changes,
particularly in the area of revenues for your department, that you
anticipate for 2008. Please keep in mind that I am not asking for a
complete analysis of your revenues, I am only asking for items that are
significant and that you are currently aware of. My main focus at this
point is in updating state and federal aid estimates that you may be aware
of. This information will be included in the projections that we will be
providing to our bond rating agencies in several weeks. Please email
updates to Catherine Koper at [email protected]. by Friday, April 13th.
Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

You can bet if they are expecting more money, we would be the last they would
tell! Especially since we are about to set levy targets! :)

        2008 Budget





Attached is the draft budget 2008 budget calandar.
Also, I am working on 2008 revenue and expenditure projections for 2008 as
part of the 5-year County outlook. As I mentioned at the Cabinet meeting this
morning, I am asking that you notify me of any signficant changes, particularly
in the area of revenues for your department, that you anticipate for 2008.
Please keep in mind that I am not asking for a complete analysis of your
revenues, I am only asking for items that are significant and that you are
currently aware of. My main focus at this point is in updating state and
federal aid estimates that you may be aware of. This information will be
included in the projections that we will be providing to our bond rating
agencies in several weeks. Please email updates to Catherine Koper at
[email protected]. by Friday, April 13th.
Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

staffing issue status
Friday, April 13, 2007 5:17:08 PM

I want to confirm where we are at regarding our staffing plans.
Alex will submit a letter requesting reinstatement to Fiscal and Management
Analyst 3. I am requesting that she be placed at step 6 of payrange 33JM
($32.4830 per hour). This will be effective April 23.
We plan on pulling the cert list for the Fiscal and Management Analyst on
Friday, April 20 so we can move ahead with interviews for the remaining vacancy.
Molly Pahl will be TACHed into the Budget Unit Manager position effective April
23 Payrange 916E, step 8 ($40.2769 per hour). We will pursue getting this
position reclassed to the unclassified service as the AFABA via the Personnel
Committee and Civil Service. DAS will prepare and submit the cert for approval
to fill.
Pam's position will be either reclassed or reallocated to payrange 917E, step 6
($43.3755 per hour) to avoid having to put another position in the unclassified
service. This will be reported to the Personnel Committee in the May cycle
(Next meeting May 11). If HR won't approve a reclass we will have a serious
retention problem. If a reallocation can be justified based on retention
alone, then that would be fine. I have no market salary data.
We need to meet with Karen to resolve the Pam issue.
Feel free to send this along to her.
If any of my points above are not consistent with the plan I need to know. I
have informed both Molly and Alex what their salary will be once the above is
completed.
I would like HR to confirm when the Civil Service Commission next meets and in
what format we should petition to move the AFABA to unclassified service. It
appears from the rules that the Commssion meets as often as determined
necessary by the Director of HR.

        Meetings with rating agencies





We are looking to schedule meetings with the three bond rating agencies the
week of April 30-May 4th. It is my understanding the CEX usually attends
these. Pam indicated that we should block off three-two hour periods for
these. Is it possible to get these plugged in so we can coordinate with the
rating agencies?

HiI just wanted to let you know how reclasses are supposed to be working going
forward. HR is going to send us a memo on the first of each month with a list
of the reclasses that they are working on. We need to do fiscal notes for them
and return them to HR within a week. There should not be too many and if they
fall on one analyst we may need to re-distribute them. A memo will be going out
from HR to departments to let them know of the change. For now, if you get a
department that sends you a reclass before they send it to HR please let them
know that they need to send it to HR first. I will forward you an e-mail I sent
to Cindy and Rob regarding HR/Fiscal issues so you can stay apprised of what we
are working on.
Here are the reclasses for April:
Current Position        Department Request
Payroll Asst (Org 2000) TC 01541     Clerical Asst I    TC 00042 PR 03P
Legal Secretary NR (Corp Counsel) (Org 1130) TC 00069   Paralegal   unknown PR

Hi Cindy. Attached is a draft of an updated document to share with the County
Executive at our meeting Tuesday on our goals for the year and beyond. As you
will see, I wrote a brief update for each of the items you listed in the
original document as well as a section on five-year goals. Please let me know
if you have any suggested edits and/or if you have any additions to the
five-year goals, or any disagreement with any of them. Also, the final 2007
item that you listed on Risk Management was unfamiliar to me, so I could not
update it. Could you possibly give me a sentence or two to use for this?
Thanks!
-- Rob
P.S. I apologize for the short turnarond on this -- I had this done Friday
morning and meant to send it to you but forgot.

DAS Fiscal 2007 Goals
1. 2007 Budget Corrective Action – Complete analysis and prepare budget
transfers related to settlement of DC 48 contract and other related issues.
April Update: Comprehensive report submitted to Finance and Audit Committee
in March cycle detailing county-wide fiscal impact of DC 48 and non-rep
agreements and requesting authorization to prepare and implement necessary
fund transfers to reflect new Personal Services and Fringe Benefits lines in
departmental budgets. DAS will next work with Parks and Facilities Management
to identify vacant DC 48 positions that must be filled and will prepare
recommendations to address fiscal impacts related to those actions. DAS also
will continue and complete its analysis of overall county-wide fiscal situation for
2007and will prepare recommended corrective actions (if necessary) for June
County Board cycle.
2. Division of Employee Benefits – Provide continued support for the staffing,
resourcing and ongoing operations of new division. [Budget transfer in January
Board cycle for transfer of additional staff and supply budget.]
April Update: New Employee Benefits Director confirmed by County Board on
April 5. DAS Director will work with new Director on plan for hiring new Fiscal
manager and other key staff and DAS-Fiscal will continue to provide fiscal staff
support as long as needed, including preparation of 2008 budget request.
3. Pension Obligation Bonds – Per County Board directive, work with POB
workgroup to develop a recommended POB proposal for review and approval of
County Board. Secure necessary changes in state statutes in preparation of POB
issuance.
April Update: Statutory changes included in Governor’s 2007-09 Budget.
Statutory language reviewed by DAS and bond counsel, and DAS worked with
State DOA on refinements. POB work group will meet in April or May to review
status of statutory changes and begin consideration of POB proposal in
anticipation of legislative approval.
4. Allocation of Fringe Benefit Cost/Fringe Workgroup – Per County Board
direction, work with County Board staff to develop options for allocating fringe
costs in 2008 budget. [Report due to County Board in March 2007.]
April Update: The Work Group submitted a recommendation to the Finance and
Audit Committee in the March cycle, and that recommendation was approved.
DAS will implement the recommendation in the 2008 Adopted Budget.
5. Work to Maintain County Bond Rating – Update 5-year projections in
preparation of meeting with bond rating agencies [February/March].

C:\Users\JohnDoe2\Desktop\CA3\CA3\DAS Fiscal 2007 Goals.April Update.doc

CArcher_Email3012126

April Update: Meetings with bond rating agencies will take place in late
April/early May in anticipation of mid-May bond sale. Official Public Statement
and presentation to ratings agencies will include updated fiscal projections.
6. Bond Issues – Issue approximately $35 million in G.O. bonds (February/March)
and approximately $13 million in revenue bonds for the Airport
[November/December].
April Update: G.O. bond authorizing resolution approved by County Board on
April 5; G.O. bond issue will take place in mid-May. Airport revenue bond issue
still anticipated for fall 2007.
7. Milwaukee Public Museum – Participate in Museum Recovery Committee to
achieve fiscal stability for museum. [Possible 2008 Budget item.]
April Update: Fiscal and Budget Administrator and DAS Director have been key
participants in Museum Recovery Committee and have spearheaded off-line
efforts to reach agreement on a recovery plan. The recovery plan likely will be
submitted to the County Board in the May or June cycle.
8. BHD Alternative Sites/St. Mikes and Sale of Existing Site – Monitor progress
for possible budgetary impacts and provide fiscal assistance as required.
April Update: DAS Director has continued to coordinate this project. DHHS
Operations Director has been assigned day-to-day management and has worked
with DPW Architecture and Engineering to secure structural and environmental
analysis of St. Mike’s property by outside contractors, which should be submitted
by end of April. DHHS Operations Director and staff also have worked with
BHD staff to refine space plan for St. Mike’s as well as coordinate outside
structural analysis of BHD buildings and internal analysis of potential
consolidation plan. Wheaton Franciscan System has agreed to match County
contribution of $20,000 with an additional $20,000 for additional architectural
analysis and cost estimate of St. Mike’s renovation. Plan is to have all of this
information prepared by end of May so that it can be analyzed and compiled for a
report to County Board in July cycle.
9. TRIP Collections\Audit – Develop response and Administration position on the
centralization of county collections activities.
April Update: DAS submitted a response to Audit Department in late February
indicating support for recommendation of move toward centralized collection
function and plan to develop work group to implement this recommendation and
others contained in the Audit report. Audit report considered by Finance and
Audit Committee in late March. Work group is in process of being formed.

C:\Users\JohnDoe2\Desktop\CA3\CA3\DAS Fiscal 2007 Goals.April Update.doc

CArcher_Email3012127

10. Bond Counsel – Finalize recommendation for selection of bond counsel. [January
Board cycle]
April Update: New bond counsel selected and approved by County Board in
February cycle.
11. DAS-Fiscal Staffing – Fill critical vacancies (Fiscal and Management Analyst
and Payroll Supervisor).
April Update: Two critical vacancies cited above compounded by loss of
additional Fiscal and Management Analyst and Budget Unit Manager. New
Budget Unit Manager has been identified and will begin 4/23 under a TAHC, but
her retention may be determined by re-class request to Assistant FABA that will
be before the Personnel Committee and Civil Service Commission in May. One
Fiscal and Management Analyst position filled by outgoing Budget Unit Manger;
other is in recruitment. Payroll Supervisor recruitment has been unsuccessful so
far.
12. 2008 Budget Planning – Begin pre-planning for 2008 budget process
 Cost-to-continue projections
 Revenue re-estimates
 Identify spending/revenue pressures
 Meet with CEX Office regarding strategies
 Staffing reductions\privatization
 Child support funding
 Cross charges/Abatements
 Budgeting for fringe
 BRASS upgrades
 Staff training for assignment shifts
April Update: In order to initiate the 2008 Budget process in BRASS, DAS first
had to reconcile 2007 departmental budgets to take into account the new labor
agreements and fringe benefit adjustments. Concurrently, DAS had to estimate
2008 fringe benefit amounts (including the projected 2008 Pension Fund
contribution and employee health care costs) and spread those costs among
departmental base budgets utilizing the new fringe benefit allocation methodology
developed in conjunction with County Board and Audit staff. Those actions were
completed in early April and BRASS was opened to departments on April 11.
DAS is completing its analysis of the impact of fringe benefit and other changes
on individual departmental budgets and will deliver 2008 Budget targets to
departments on April 18.

C:\Users\JohnDoe2\Desktop\CA3\CA3\DAS Fiscal 2007 Goals.April Update.doc

CArcher_Email3012128

13. Risk Management – Review utilization/loss trends for workers compensation
and liability by department to identify problem areas and develop corrective
action initiatives.

DAS Fiscal Five-Year Goals
1. Structural Deficit Stabilization – Building on efforts initiated in 2006, DAS will
achieve stabilization in the main areas causing the County’s structural deficit:
employee wages, employee/retiree health care, Pension Fund contribution and
debt service. This will involve development and successful implementation of
new union contracts with reasonable wage and fringe components beginning in
2009; development of innovative approaches to controlling the growth of health
care costs, including a far-reaching wellness program, potential utilization of
health savings accounts and/or similar strategies, and new contracts with health
care vendors; successful issuance of Pension Obligation Bonds to stabilize the
County’s Pension Fund obligation; and continued adherence to annual capital
budget caps and aggressive pay down of existing debt, including potential use of
one-time land sale revenue from the Mental Health Complex and Northeast
Quadrant land sales to bolster the Debt Service Reserve and/or expedite the
payment of outstanding debt.
2. Countywide Strategic Planning – DAS will reinvigorate countywide strategic
planning efforts by working with departments and the County Executive to
analyze departmental five-year goals and compile those goals into a countywide
strategic plan that will include benchmarks, milestones, outcomes and
performance measures. This countywide plan will identify key priorities and
solutions to long-standing fiscal problems and will establish a roadmap for
implementing those solutions, as well as fall-back plans should proposed
solutions not be implemented (e.g. the Legislature refuses to approve a Parks
District). This effort will involve active engagement by the County Board and its
staff. Consideration also will be given to re-establishing outcomes and
performance measures in departmental budgets during the next five years.
Consideration should be given during 2008 Budget process to the provision of
funds for consulting assistance to launch this effort.
3. Countywide Space Plan – DAS will work with the Department of Transportation
and Public Works, the Division of Economic and Community Development and
other departments to develop and fully implement a countywide space plan by the
end of 2012. This plan will include disposition of longstanding issues related to
the County’s presence on the County Grounds, the future of City Campus, the
future of the facility housing the Medical Examiner and Community Correctional
Center, the future of the Mental Health Complex and former Child and
Adolescent Treatment Center, future use of the Courthouse and Safety Building,
whether departments and divisions should be leasing space in non-County
facilities, etc. DAS will strive to develop and receive County Board and County

C:\Users\JohnDoe2\Desktop\CA3\CA3\DAS Fiscal 2007 Goals.April Update.doc

CArcher_Email3012129

Executive approval for a master space plan by the end of 2008, and implement
that plan during the following four years. Consideration should be given during
2008 Budget process to the provision of funds for consulting assistance to launch
this effort.
4. Redesigned Fiscal and Accounting Infrastructure – DAS will redesign and
fortify the County’s fiscal and accounting infrastructure. Potential components of
this redesigned infrastructure include creation of a Deputy Controller position and
eventual consolidation of all senior accounting positions countywide into DASFiscal Affairs; increased cooperation and direct reporting of out-stationed DAS
Fiscal and Management Analysts to DAS-Fiscal Affairs; identification of
divisions and departments that lack sufficient accounting and/or fiscal staff and
implementation of strategies to address those needs; and development and
implementation of strategies designed to bolster the County’s ability to recruit and
retain qualified fiscal staff.

DAS Fiscal 2006 Accomplishments
1. Recovered over $1.4 million in 2006 property insurance claims through
aggressive management and approximately $150,000 in 2005 claims related to the
Parks Department.
2. Minimized downtime of County operations and business interruptions through
immediate actions of Risk Management staff.
2006 examples include:
Courthouse flood, county grounds water main breaks, Wilson Park cooling tower
pool, Courthouse transformer outage and water damage at Museum.
3. Upgraded BRASS budget system to automate many manual and labor-intensive
processes.
4. Completed BRASS training for all County departments and developed
documented user manual as reference tool.
5. Automated the carry-over process via online intranet entries.
6. Continued advancement of Paperless Initiative through electronic transmission of
County reports.
7. Completed point-of-sale automation on behalf of the Zoo.
8. Completed two Bond sales and maintained the County’s bond rating.
9. Completed budget with reduced staffing levels.

Dear Mr. McKinstry,
This e-mail communication should serve as formal notification to inform Human
Resources that I am requesting to take time off from my position as a Fiscal
and Management Analyst within the Department of Administrative Services--Fiscal
and Strategic Services (Low Org. Unit 1157) under the Family and Medical Leave
Act (FMLA).
As I understand it--according to federal guidelines--if an employee is
requesting time off under FMLA, then 30 calendar days of notice shall be given
to the employer (in this case Milwaukee County) for a foreseeable event. As my
request is for time off beginning May 14, 2007, I am submitting notice on April
13, 2007. Please note that I have copied this communication to my immediate
supervisor Pamela Bryant (414) 278-4396 and to the Fiscal and Budget
Administrator, Cynthia Archer (414) 278-4173. In addition, I have communicated
verbally to both of them that I am requesting this leave. I do plan to utilize
time from my sick leave time bank so that the time off is with pay.
On May 15, 2007 my parents will be undergoing a kidney transplant at the

CArcher_Email3012133

Comprehensive Transplant Center at John's Hopkins Hospital. My mother will be
donating my father a kidney at that time. I have faxed the Medical
Certification to the lead physician at John's Hopkins. As I understand it, I
now have 15 days from today's date to return the completed certification and
other paperwork to Human Resources so that the request will not be delayed. I
have attached a confirmed transmission report as well as the actual letter
included in the faxed request.
Please inform me immediately if there are any other matters of substance that
are part of this process that could affect the ultimate determination of my
request that I may be leaving out. Feel free to contact me at any time so as
to facilitate the request in the most expedient manner possible or should you

Reallocation of Capital Finance Manager from PR 916Eto PR 917E.

I am requesting that the Position of Capital Finance Manager be reallocated from PR 916E to PR 917E
and placed at step 7 the pay range. Approval of this request is essential for retention purposes.
The Capital Finance Manger is essential to countywide operations and has become a key advisor on
critical financing issues undertaken by Milwaukee County.
The Capital Finance Manger is responsible for the preparation, coordination and securing of bond
financings for the County’s capital program. The position works directly with bond counsel, financial
advisors and investment bankers. The Capital Finance Manager is also responsible for securing and
defending the County’s bond rating before annual meetings with the top three bond rating agencies in the
country. Finally, this position is responsible for monitoring and projecting countywide revenue streams
such as sales tax, state aid, tax incremental district revenue, property tax revenues and other nondepartmental revenues. In recent years the incumbent holding this position has developed expertise, some
of which is unique to Milwaukee County, that would be difficult to replace. Retention of the incumbent
in this position is especially critical since the County is preparing to undertake the issuance of Pension
Obligation Bonds (POBs).
The incumbent Capital Finance has been and continues to be instrumental in the development and
implementation of the POB initiative. Currently, the Capital Finance Manager is negotiating with State
officials to receive the required legal authorization that would allow Milwaukee County to issue
approximately $455 million in 30-year pension obligation bonds and other debt instruments. This is a
long-term commitment for Milwaukee County and will require the Capital Finance Manager to continue
to analyze and negotiate the parameters of this financing proposal to ensure the program meets the
financial interests of the County and its retirees, state and federal legal requirements and regulations and
the ongoing reporting requirements of the State.
It is critical that the County retain the in-house expertise related to Milwaukee County’s capital financing
program. I am therefore requesting the position be reallocated to a higher pay range for purposes of
retention.
Fiscal Impact
Reallocation of this position to step 7 of 917E would result in increased salary and social security
expenditures of $11,615 annually. Assuming an effective date of May 19, the 2007 increase in salary and
social security costs for the remainder of 2007 would be approximately $7,148. There are sufficient
salary savings within DAS – Fiscal to absorb these costs in 2007. Costs associated with 2008 will be
included in the 2008 budget.

Monday, April 16, 2007 1:33:28 PM

Karen,
Thank you for meeting with us this morning and clarifying what needs to be done
to accomplish our staffing needs in Fiscal. This is very important to me with
the 2008 budget looming around the corner.
You will receive a letter or email from Alex tomorrow requesting that she be
reinstated to the FAMA position effective April 23. We agreed the salary would
be set at payrange 33JM, step 6.
I am now officially requesting that Molly Pahl be TACHED into the Budget Unit
Manager position effective April 24. You informed me that the code dictates
the salary at which she can be TACHED. Step 5 or $37.17861. You also
indicated I did not need to submit any further paperwork on this item.
I think we are good to go on the Reclass of the Budget Unit Manager to
Assistant FABA. This will go to the Personnel Committee on May 11 and to the
Civil Service Commission on May 24. Once it is approved by both, we are free
to then make an appointment (full Board approval not required).
We just sent down a reallocation request for Pam Bryant's position. This too
will go to the Personnel Committee on May 11 and does not need to go to Civil
Service Commission.
Thanks again for helping me sort all this out! I appreciate you help.

SUBJECT:

April 9, 2007
Karen Jackson, Director, DHR
Rob Henken, Director, DAS
Reclassification Request: Budget Unit Manager PR 916E to Assistant Fiscal
and Budget Administrator PR 902E

Policy
Milwaukee County Ordinance 17.05 (2) describes the procedure and criteria for the submission
of reclassification requests.
Action Requested
Reclassify Budget Unit Manager position, title code 87830, pay range 916E to Assistant Fiscal
and Budget Administrator, Pay range 902 E.
Rationale
In the 1990s the management staff of the Department of Administration’s Fiscal Affairs Division
(now the Department of Administrative Services Fiscal and Strategic Services Division)
consisted of a Fiscal and Budget Administrator, an Assistant Fiscal and Budget Administrator
and four Budget Unit Managers. The positions of Budget Unit Managers were created and
functioned as managers for specific areas of the County’s budget; for example, the Public Safety
and Courts function had one Budget Unit Manager to supervise the analysts and budgets for that
area. The Budget Unit Managers reported to the Assistant Fiscal and Budget Administrator who
functioned as the deputy to the Fiscal and Budget Administrator. Currently, the Division is
staffed with a Fiscal and Budget Administrator and one Budget Unit Manager.
The position of Assistant Fiscal and Budget Administrator (AFBA) was abolished in the 2005
Budget due to fiscal constraints. Since that time, many of the duties assigned to that position
have been shifted to the current Budget Unit Manager position. Specifically, the Budget Unit
Manager position has assumed primary responsibility for:
 Supervision, management and training of all Fiscal and Management Analysts assigned
operating budget responsibilities.
 Development and conducting or countywide training of non-DAS department staff
related to the development of departmental operating budgets and the use of BRASS.
 Development of annual operating budget instructions (in consultation with the Fiscal and
Budget Administrator (FABA)).

CArcher_Email3012144

Budget Unit Manager Re-Class Request

4/2/07
Page 2

 Development of countywide fiscal projections related to operating budgets (in
consultation with FABA).
 Development (with FABA) and coordination of operating budget process, including
timelines, completion of review and analysis of requested budgets, development of the
Executive’s Recommended Budget and tracking of all Board amendments to the
Executive Budget
 Assisting FABA in the presentation and explanation of Executive Budget provisions to
Committees, the County Board and outside organizations.
 Overseeing and managing the compilation and production of the Adopted budget to
ensure Board actions and intent are accurately reflected in the final Adopted budget.
 Coordination, oversight, review and organization of monthly reports to the County Board.
 Serving as the BRASS Administrator and supervises and directs IT consultants on
development and modifications to BRASS.
 Supervision and direction of the Tax Refund Intercept Program (TRIP).
 Supervision of office support staff in absence of FABA.
 Oversight and direction of Fiscal Affairs operations and functions in absence of FABA.
 Recruiting and hiring staff (in consultation with FABA).
 Development of office-wide operating procedures.
 Completion of special projects as assigned by the DAS Director and FABA.
 Acts as FABA in absence of FABA.
 Represents the Director and FABA as required on Committees, Workgroups and to
outside parties.

The current Budget Unit Manager has assumed duties beyond simply supervising and managing
the workload of the Fiscal and Management Analysts related to departmental operating budgets.
With the deletion of the Assistant FABA, the scope, competencies, level of discretion and
independence of this position has increased beyond that of a Budget Unit Manager. The Budget
Unit Manager no longer manages only one functional area of the office but has numerous
countywide responsibilities that were not envisioned with the creation of the Budget Unit
Managers. This results in the Budget Unit Manager being knowledgeable about all areas of the
County. Essentially, this position has now assumed the duties of both Assistant FABA and
Budget Unit Manager, and given that reality, the position clearly demands the higher

Budget Unit Manager Re-Class Request

classification of Assistant FABA. Furthermore, approval of this reclassification request, along
with the proposed reclassification request for the Capital Finance Manager and the
reclassification of the Controller position in the 2007 Budget, will place all three Fiscal Affairs
managers at the Executive Director 2 level consistent with the executive management
responsibilities assigned to these positions and consistent with similar managers within the
County.

Fiscal Impact
Reclassification of this position to the mid-point of pay range 902 E would result in increased
salary and social security expenditures of $11,234 annually. Assuming an effective date of May
19, the 2007 increase in salary and social security costs for the remainder of 2007 would be
approximately $6,913. There are sufficient salary savings in within DAS to absorb these costs in
2007. Costs associated with 2008 will be included in the 2008 budget.

Fiscal Impact
This position action would result in increased personal services expenditures between $1,777 for
step one to $2,420 for step five of the range. This cost is offset approximately 50% by State
revenue for a tax levy impact between $888 to $1,210 for the last five months of 2006.
In terms of total annual costs, this position action would result in increased expenditures of
$2,918 to $3,974, offset by 50% revenue for a tax levy impact of between $1,459 to $1,987 in
2007 (see attached fiscal note form).
Thank you in advance for your consideration of this request.

Further work on the root causes was to come from audit department and the

2007 Budget Adjustments and DC48 Contract/Position Funding Issues

We have reviewed your analysis of the impacts of the 2007 - DC48 Contract Budget Adjustments
that were recently approved by the County Board as it relates to staffing for the Parks
Department.
As your review stated, the approved adjustments will result in the following changes to the Parks
Departments Budget for 2007:
•
•
•

Account 5199, Salaries, will be increased by $1,715,445
Account 5312, Social Security, will be increased by $131,228
Account 5401, Fringe Benefits, will be decreased by $707,241

While this budget adjustment of $1,139,432 did address the 4% salary increases from
2006, the 1% salary increase from 2007, and the lump sum payments for 2007 - it does not
address the $2.3 million shortfall in funding for the Park Maintenance Worker 1 positions
that were put back into the Parks Department Budget.
2007 Staffing Plan (attached):
For 2007, the Parks Department has 286 permanent positions allocated in BRASS. At this time, of
the 286 positions, 240 filled positions and 16 unfunded positions. The Parks Department has 30
positions vacant. The distribution of the 30 vacant positions is 24 Park Maintenance Worker 2
positions, 4 Office Assistant positions, and 2 Horticulturists positions.
2007 Staffing Plan
Gross FTE
Filled
Unfunded
Vacant

286
240

30

A major, unanticipated, expenditure of the 2007 staffing plan relates to the Park Maintenance
Worker 1 positions that were to be abolished in the 2007. The actions to restore these
positions, with no funding, has forced the Parks Department to absorb approximately $2.3
million in direct salaries and fringe benefit costs for these positions in 2007.

CArcher_Email3012152

2006 Expenditures & 2007 Funding Distribution:
Based on the 2007-staffing plan, our seasonal budget will need to be reduced by approximately
$412,176 when compared to 2006 actual expenditures. This reduction is directly related to the
Parks Department having to fund the filled Parks Maintenance Worker 1 positions.
2006 Seasonal Expenditures
$5,054,477.28
2007 Seasonal Base Budget
$4,642,301.00
06-07 Change (to pay for PMW1’s) ($412,176.28)

In addition to the base seasonal reduction, the shortfall is compounded by the Budget
Amendments related to operating the wading pools, and expanding the hours of operations for
the swimming pools. When combined, the shortfall facing the Parks Department in 2007,
exceeds $1,100,000. Having to fund the Park Maintenance Worker 1 from base funding could
potentially force the Parks Department to implement the some or all of the following:
•

Benefits account, resulting from the 30 vacant positions, to the 5199 Salary account.
And, allocate an additional $900,000 to allow the department to fill 12 vacant Park Maintenance
Worker 2 positions.

CArcher_Email3012153

The tax levy impact for this alternative is approximately $900,000 in salary and fringe benefit
costs.
Impacts:
• The department would be able to maintain Parks Operations equal to the 2006
workforce.
• The expanded pool hours will be implemented.
• The wading pools will be opened.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

Mtg. w/CE on DAS Goals

Hi Cindy. Attached is a draft of an updated document to share with the County
Executive at our meeting Tuesday on our goals for the year and beyond. As you
will see, I wrote a brief update for each of the items you listed in the
original document as well as a section on five-year goals. Please let me know
if you have any suggested edits and/or if you have any additions to the
five-year goals, or any disagreement with any of them. Also, the final 2007
item that you listed on Risk Management was unfamiliar to me, so I could not
update it. Could you possibly give me a sentence or two to use for this?
Thanks!

P.S. I apologize for the short turnarond on this -- I had this done Friday
morning and meant to send it to you but forgot. - ~1899362.doc

DAS Fiscal 2007 Goals
1. 2007 Budget Corrective Action – Complete analysis and prepare budget
transfers related to settlement of DC 48 contract and other related issues.
April Update: Comprehensive report submitted to Finance and Audit Committee
in March cycle detailing county-wide fiscal impact of DC 48 and non-rep
agreements and requesting authorization to prepare and implement necessary
fund transfers to reflect new Personal Services and Fringe Benefits lines in
departmental budgets. DAS will next work with Parks and Facilities Management
to identify vacant DC 48 positions that must be filled and will prepare
recommendations to address fiscal impacts related to those actions. DAS also
will continue and complete its analysis of overall county-wide fiscal situation for
2007and will prepare recommended corrective actions (if necessary) for June
County Board cycle.
2. Division of Employee Benefits – Provide continued support for the staffing,
resourcing and ongoing operations of new division. [Budget transfer in January
Board cycle for transfer of additional staff and supply budget.]
April Update: New Employee Benefits Director confirmed by County Board on
April 5. DAS Director will work with new Director on plan for hiring new Fiscal
manager and other key staff and DAS-Fiscal will continue to provide fiscal staff
support as long as needed, including preparation of 2008 budget request.
3. Pension Obligation Bonds – Per County Board directive, work with POB
workgroup to develop a recommended POB proposal for review and approval of
County Board. Secure necessary changes in state statutes in preparation of POB
issuance.
April Update: Statutory changes included in Governor’s 2007-09 Budget.
Statutory language reviewed by DAS and bond counsel, and DAS worked with
State DOA on refinements. POB work group will meet in April or May to review
status of statutory changes and begin consideration of POB proposal in
anticipation of legislative approval.
4. Allocation of Fringe Benefit Cost/Fringe Workgroup – Per County Board
direction, work with County Board staff to develop options for allocating fringe
costs in 2008 budget. [Report due to County Board in March 2007.]
April Update: The Work Group submitted a recommendation to the Finance and
Audit Committee in the March cycle, and that recommendation was approved.
DAS will implement the recommendation in the 2008 Adopted Budget.
5. Work to Maintain County Bond Rating – Update 5-year projections in
preparation of meeting with bond rating agencies [February/March].

C:\Users\JohnDoe2\Desktop\CA3\CA3\~1899362.doc

CArcher_Email3012165

April Update: Meetings with bond rating agencies will take place in late
April/early May in anticipation of mid-May bond sale. Official Public Statement
and presentation to ratings agencies will include updated fiscal projections.
6. Bond Issues – Issue approximately $35 million in G.O. bonds (February/March)
and approximately $13 million in revenue bonds for the Airport
[November/December].
April Update: G.O. bond authorizing resolution approved by County Board on
April 5; G.O. bond issue will take place in mid-May. Airport revenue bond issue
still anticipated for fall 2007.
7. Milwaukee Public Museum – Participate in Museum Recovery Committee to
achieve fiscal stability for museum. [Possible 2008 Budget item.]
April Update: Fiscal and Budget Administrator and DAS Director have been key
participants in Museum Recovery Committee and have spearheaded off-line
efforts to reach agreement on a recovery plan. The recovery plan likely will be
submitted to the County Board in the May or June cycle.
8. BHD Alternative Sites/St. Mikes and Sale of Existing Site – Monitor progress
for possible budgetary impacts and provide fiscal assistance as required.
April Update: DAS Director has continued to coordinate this project. DHHS
Operations Director has been assigned day-to-day management and has worked
with DPW Architecture and Engineering to secure structural and environmental
analysis of St. Mike’s property by outside contractors, which should be submitted
by end of April. DHHS Operations Director and staff also have worked with
BHD staff to refine space plan for St. Mike’s as well as coordinate outside
structural analysis of BHD buildings and internal analysis of potential
consolidation plan. Wheaton Franciscan System has agreed to match County
contribution of $20,000 with an additional $20,000 for additional architectural
analysis and cost estimate of St. Mike’s renovation. Plan is to have all of this
information prepared by end of May so that it can be analyzed and compiled for a
report to County Board in July cycle.
9. TRIP Collections\Audit – Develop response and Administration position on the
centralization of county collections activities.
April Update: DAS submitted a response to Audit Department in late February
indicating support for recommendation of move toward centralized collection
function and plan to develop work group to implement this recommendation and
others contained in the Audit report. Audit report considered by Finance and
Audit Committee in late March. Work group is in process of being formed.

10. Bond Counsel – Finalize recommendation for selection of bond counsel. [January
Board cycle]
April Update: New bond counsel selected and approved by County Board in
February cycle.
11. DAS-Fiscal Staffing – Fill critical vacancies (Fiscal and Management Analyst
and Payroll Supervisor).
April Update: Two critical vacancies cited above compounded by loss of
additional Fiscal and Management Analyst and Budget Unit Manager. New
Budget Unit Manager has been identified and will begin 4/23 under a TAHC, but
her retention may be determined by re-class request to Assistant FABA that will
be before the Personnel Committee and Civil Service Commission in May. One
Fiscal and Management Analyst position filled by outgoing Budget Unit Manger;
other is in recruitment. Payroll Supervisor recruitment has been unsuccessful so
far.
12. 2008 Budget Planning – Begin pre-planning for 2008 budget process
 Cost-to-continue projections
 Revenue re-estimates
 Identify spending/revenue pressures
 Meet with CEX Office regarding strategies
 Staffing reductions\privatization
 Child support funding
 Cross charges/Abatements
 Budgeting for fringe
 BRASS upgrades
 Staff training for assignment shifts
April Update: In order to initiate the 2008 Budget process in BRASS, DAS first
had to reconcile 2007 departmental budgets to take into account the new labor
agreements and fringe benefit adjustments. Concurrently, DAS had to estimate
2008 fringe benefit amounts (including the projected 2008 Pension Fund
contribution and employee health care costs) and spread those costs among
departmental base budgets utilizing the new fringe benefit allocation methodology
developed in conjunction with County Board and Audit staff. Those actions were
completed in early April and BRASS was opened to departments on April 11.
DAS is completing its analysis of the impact of fringe benefit and other changes
on individual departmental budgets and will deliver 2008 Budget targets to
departments on April 18.

13. Risk Management – Review utilization/loss trends for workers compensation
and liability by department to identify problem areas and develop corrective
action initiatives.
April Update: Worker’s compensation and liability loss runs for 2006 and prior
years have been analyzed. Meetings with some department safety representatives
have been held and others are being scheduled to develop work injury reduction
goals and objectives for each department. Further analysis and programming is
currently in progress with our liability insurers loss control staff. Liability loss
reduction programs already developed include the Truck Rodeo, a driver and
vehicle safety program to be held in May for the Highway department and an
inmate personal property loss reduction program for the House of Correction.

DAS Fiscal Five-Year Goals
1. Structural Deficit Stabilization – Building on efforts initiated in 2006, DAS will
achieve stabilization in the main areas causing the County’s structural deficit:
employee wages, employee/retiree health care, Pension Fund contribution and
debt service. This will involve development and successful implementation of
new union contracts with reasonable wage and fringe components beginning in
2009; development of innovative approaches to controlling the growth of health
care costs, including a far-reaching wellness program, potential utilization of
health savings accounts and/or similar strategies, and new contracts with health
care vendors; successful issuance of Pension Obligation Bonds to stabilize the
County’s Pension Fund obligation; and continued adherence to annual capital
budget caps and aggressive pay down of existing debt, including potential use of
one-time land sale revenue from the Mental Health Complex and Northeast
Quadrant land sales to bolster the Debt Service Reserve and/or expedite the
payment of outstanding debt.
2. Countywide Strategic Planning – DAS will reinvigorate countywide strategic
planning efforts by working with departments and the County Executive to
analyze departmental five-year goals and compile those goals into a countywide
strategic plan that will include benchmarks, milestones, outcomes and
performance measures. This countywide plan will identify key priorities and
solutions to long-standing fiscal problems and will establish a roadmap for
implementing those solutions, as well as fall-back plans should proposed
solutions not be implemented (e.g. the Legislature refuses to approve a Parks
District). This effort will involve active engagement by the County Board and its
staff. Consideration also will be given to re-establishing outcomes and
performance measures in departmental budgets during the next five years.
Consideration should be given during 2008 Budget process to the provision of
funds for consulting assistance to launch this effort.

3. Countywide Space Plan – DAS will work with the Department of Transportation
and Public Works, the Division of Economic and Community Development and
other departments to develop and fully implement a countywide space plan by the
end of 2012. This plan will include disposition of longstanding issues related to
the County’s presence on the County Grounds, the future of City Campus, the
future of the facility housing the Medical Examiner and Community Correctional
Center, the future of the Mental Health Complex and former Child and
Adolescent Treatment Center, future use of the Courthouse and Safety Building,
whether departments and divisions should be leasing space in non-County
facilities, etc. DAS will strive to develop and receive County Board and County
Executive approval for a master space plan by the end of 2008, and implement
that plan during the following four years. Consideration should be given during
2008 Budget process to the provision of funds for consulting assistance to launch
this effort.
4. Redesigned Fiscal and Accounting Infrastructure – DAS will redesign and
fortify the County’s fiscal and accounting infrastructure. Potential components of
this redesigned infrastructure include creation of a Deputy Controller position and
eventual consolidation of all senior accounting positions countywide into DASFiscal Affairs; increased cooperation and direct reporting of out-stationed DAS
Fiscal and Management Analysts to DAS-Fiscal Affairs; identification of
divisions and departments that lack sufficient accounting and/or fiscal staff and
implementation of strategies to address those needs; and development and
implementation of strategies designed to bolster the County’s ability to recruit and
retain qualified fiscal staff.

DAS Fiscal 2006 Accomplishments
1. Recovered over $1.4 million in 2006 property insurance claims through
aggressive management and approximately $150,000 in 2005 claims related to the
Parks Department.
2. Minimized downtime of County operations and business interruptions through
immediate actions of Risk Management staff.
2006 examples include:
Courthouse flood, county grounds water main breaks, Wilson Park cooling tower
pool, Courthouse transformer outage and water damage at Museum.
3. Upgraded BRASS budget system to automate many manual and labor-intensive
processes.
4. Completed BRASS training for all County departments and developed
documented user manual as reference tool.
5. Automated the carry-over process via online intranet entries.

6. Continued advancement of Paperless Initiative through electronic transmission of
County reports.
7. Completed point-of-sale automation on behalf of the Zoo.
8. Completed two Bond sales and maintained the County’s bond rating.
9. Completed budget with reduced staffing levels.
10. Provided financial analysis to Health Care group resulting in a renegotiated
contract with WPS for an estimated $18 million in savings over final three years
of contract.

Hi Cynthia,
Here is the issue paper from the Parks Department concerning our staffing
plan. Please review it let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks

2007 Budget Adjustments and DC48 Contract/Position Funding Issues

We have reviewed your analysis of the impacts of the 2007 - DC48 Contract Budget Adjustments
that were recently approved by the County Board as it relates to staffing for the Parks
Department.
As your review stated, the approved adjustments will result in the following changes to the Parks
Departments Budget for 2007:
•
•
•

Account 5199, Salaries, will be increased by $1,715,445
Account 5312, Social Security, will be increased by $131,228
Account 5401, Fringe Benefits, will be decreased by $707,241

While this budget adjustment of $1,139,432 did address the 4% salary increases from
2006, the 1% salary increase from 2007, and the lump sum payments for 2007 - it does not
address the $2.3 million shortfall in funding for the Park Maintenance Worker 1 positions
that were put back into the Parks Department Budget.
2007 Staffing Plan (attached):
For 2007, the Parks Department has 286 permanent positions allocated in BRASS. At this time, of
the 286 positions, 240 filled positions and 16 unfunded positions. The Parks Department has 30
positions vacant. The distribution of the 30 vacant positions is 24 Park Maintenance Worker 2
positions, 4 Office Assistant positions, and 2 Horticulturists positions.

30

A major, unanticipated, expenditure of the 2007 staffing plan relates to the Park Maintenance
Worker 1 positions that were to be abolished in the 2007. The actions to restore these
positions, with no funding, has forced the Parks Department to absorb approximately $2.3
million in direct salaries and fringe benefit costs for these positions in 2007.

CArcher_Email3012173

2006 Expenditures & 2007 Funding Distribution:
Based on the 2007-staffing plan, our seasonal budget will need to be reduced by approximately
$412,176 when compared to 2006 actual expenditures. This reduction is directly related to the
Parks Department having to fund the filled Parks Maintenance Worker 1 positions.
2006 Seasonal Expenditures
$5,054,477.28
2007 Seasonal Base Budget
$4,642,301.00
06-07 Change (to pay for PMW1’s) ($412,176.28)

In addition to the base seasonal reduction, the shortfall is compounded by the Budget
Amendments related to operating the wading pools, and expanding the hours of operations for
the swimming pools. When combined, the shortfall facing the Parks Department in 2007,
exceeds $1,100,000. Having to fund the Park Maintenance Worker 1 from base funding could
potentially force the Parks Department to implement the some or all of the following:
•
•
•

Base Seasonal Funding Reduction:
Close Wading Pools:
Eliminate Expanded Pool Hours:

$412,176.28
$430,000.00
$262,500.00

The following tables represent the 2006 Seasonal and Permanent Salary expenditures incurred
by the Parks Department in 2006 and the 2007 Funding Distribution.

Request:
Allow the Parks Department to transfer its positive balance of $1.0 million from the 5401 Fringe
Benefits account, resulting from the 30 vacant positions, to the 5199 Salary account.
And, allocate an additional $900,000 to allow the department to fill 12 vacant Park Maintenance
Worker 2 positions.

CArcher_Email3012174

The tax levy impact for this alternative is approximately $900,000 in salary and fringe benefit
costs.
Impacts:
• The department would be able to maintain Parks Operations equal to the 2006
workforce.
• The expanded pool hours will be implemented.
• The wading pools will be opened.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

Re: FAMAs

I agree. Please work with Alex on getting list, etc. and proceed as indicated
below. We should probably also talk about assignments before we get to far
along in recruitment. I need to focus on levy targets for next two days.
(ugh!)
I learned of Justin right before I went into mtg in CEXs office and I just got
done. Otherwise I would have called you.

Hi Cindy, Justin called today to let me know about his leaving. I'm thinking
we should get started on filling the two vacancies as soon as possible.   Does
DHR have a list that I could start looking at? I was thinking that Pam,
myself, Alex and one of the FAMAs should do the first round of interviews.
What do you think?

Parks meeting on staffing
Tuesday, April 17, 2007 2:51:28 PM

Jim Keegan and Alex agreed to move the meeting to discuss Parks staffing to
tomorrow at 3:00.
The issue again, is how many of the 33 unfunded DC48 positions does the Park's
department feel they need to fill for the remainder of the year and how many
will be left vacant. Hopefully this can be resolved quickly since it is not a
complicated issue.

Hi Cindy. Would you mind calling Rep. Jeskewitz on this? You know more of the

OK, now I don’t want you to get all bent out of shape about this…but an

ahead of time—may I use you as a reference if I need to? I wasn’t really

wanted to ask you ahead of time just in case. Please let me know…

Sure—it is an Office Manager/Executive Assistant (just like I do now)…but for
the head of a small Financial Services company (ICK!). The pay is $50,000,
though! WHAT THE HECK?!?! The place is small, but I think they take care of a
lot of Packer players by what I read, so they must do well. Jeff found it, and
I half-heartedly applied and now am interviewing on Monday. Still not taking
it very seriously but I wanted to be prepared just in case a) I got it and b) I
wanted it. It’s a long-shot…but nonetheless comes at a BAD time!
Thanks for being there for me if I need you!

Fw: TACH Molly Pahl in Budget Unit Manager Position effective April 24.
Wednesday, April 18, 2007 4:20:41 PM

Below is my request to TACH Molly into Budget Unit Manager. The below is based
on a meeting with Rob and Karen. I have now been told that Alex has to submit
an application so she is working on that. I also understand that Molly cannot
be TACHED until Alex vacates the position. If Alex vacates on Monday, Molly
could be TACHED on Tuesday. Karen indicated I did not have to do any paperwork
associated with the TACH. If we still need to meet, let Kat know and you can
stop up tomorrow.

Karen,
Thank you for meeting with us this morning and clarifying what needs to be done
to accomplish our staffing needs in Fiscal. This is very important to me with
the 2008 budget looming around the corner.
You will receive a letter or email from Alex tomorrow requesting that she be
reinstated to the FAMA position effective April 23. We agreed the salary would
be set at payrange 33JM, step 6.
I am now officially requesting that Molly Pahl be TACHED into the Budget Unit
Manager position effective April 24. You informed me that the code dictates

CArcher_Email3012203

the salary at which she can be TACHED. Step 5 or $37.17861. You also
indicated I did not need to submit any further paperwork on this item.
I think we are good to go on the Reclass of the Budget Unit Manager to
Assistant FABA. This will go to the Personnel Committee on May 11 and to the
Civil Service Commission on May 24. Once it is approved by both, we are free
to then make an appointment (full Board approval not required).
We just sent down a reallocation request for Pam Bryant's position. This too
will go to the Personnel Committee on May 11 and does not need to go to Civil
Service Commission.
Thanks again for helping me sort all this out! I appreciate you help.

Cynthia: The TAHC form is a payroll form so the payroll clerk has
documentation to make the payment.   Since Molly is technically assigned to
HOC, they are the ones that must complete her payroll.   A copy goes to the
payroll clerk and a copy to DHR so it can be included on the informational
report to Personnel Committee. The TAHC for Molly can begin the same day that
Alex is appointed to the new classification.
The last time Alex applied for the Fiscal and Management Analyst III position
in 2004 she was rejected. DHR needs some documentation to show that she meets
the minium qualifications. Law suits are flying left and right because proper
procedures are not being followed. It is my understanding that Alex was asked
to submit a resume but did not want to. The only other alternative is an
application. DHR is prepared to process the application as soon as it comes in
and immediately certify her name.

Cynthia: The TAHC form is a payroll form so the payroll clerk has
documentation to make the payment.   Since Molly is technically assigned to
HOC, they are the ones that must complete her payroll.   A copy goes to the
payroll clerk and a copy to DHR so it can be included on the informational
report to Personnel Committee. The TAHC for Molly can begin the same day that
Alex is appointed to the new classification.
The last time Alex applied for the Fiscal and Management Analyst III position
in 2004 she was rejected. DHR needs some documentation to show that she meets
the minium qualifications. Law suits are flying left and right because proper
procedures are not being followed. It is my understanding that Alex was asked
to submit a resume but did not want to. The only other alternative is an
application. DHR is prepared to process the application as soon as it comes in
and immediately certify her name.

Below is my request to TACH Molly into Budget Unit Manager. The below is based
on a meeting with Rob and Karen. I have now been told that Alex has to submit
an application so she is working on that. I also understand that Molly cannot
be TACHED until Alex vacates the position. If Alex vacates on Monday, Molly
could be TACHED on Tuesday. Karen indicated I did not have to do any paperwork
associated with the TACH. If we still need to meet, let Kat know and you can
stop up tomorrow.

Karen,
Thank you for meeting with us this morning and clarifying what needs to be done
to accomplish our staffing needs in Fiscal. This is very important to me with
the 2008 budget looming around the corner.
You will receive a letter or email from Alex tomorrow requesting that she be
reinstated to the FAMA position effective April 23. We agreed the salary would
be set at payrange 33JM, step 6.
I am now officially requesting that Molly Pahl be TACHED into the Budget Unit
Manager position effective April 24. You informed me that the code dictates
the salary at which she can be TACHED. Step 5 or $37.17861. You also
indicated I did not need to submit any further paperwork on this item.
I think we are good to go on the Reclass of the Budget Unit Manager to
Assistant FABA. This will go to the Personnel Committee on May 11 and to the
Civil Service Commission on May 24. Once it is approved by both, we are free
to then make an appointment (full Board approval not required).
We just sent down a reallocation request for Pam Bryant's position. This too
will go to the Personnel Committee on May 11 and does not need to go to Civil
Service Commission.
Thanks again for helping me sort all this out! I appreciate you help.

In an effort to bring this package to a conclusion, I have put together an
amortization schedule which I believe reflects the intent of the parties at
this time. I know you are drafting associated covenants, etc. that would go
along with this plan. This includes a 30 year schedule at 2% with the first 5
years as discussed.
After meetings with the Financial Oversight Committee and the County yesterday,
it became clear that additional non-economic changes to the management lease
agreement would not be feasible at this time and would only serve to derail the
process. Consequently, I have revised the term sheet to reflect that
consideration. Please review the attached and get back to me with your
confirmation or concerns. I will be out of the office the next few days but
will be seeing and responding to emails/phone (Cell: 414-530-9129).
Thank you,
Mike

Milwaukee Public Museum Recovery Plan Term Sheet

Closed Session

The Milwaukee Public Museum (MPM) has been working with its key stakeholders to
establish a new financial structure, which will allow the MPM to continue operations in
the short-term and achieve long-term financial and operational stability. These
stakeholders include Milwaukee County, lenders - Chase and M&I banks, the donor
community, Discovery World, and the board and management of MPM. The parties have
verbally agreed on a package of actions to be taken, each conditional upon the others, to
provide financial support for the museum. Each party will provide written confirmation
of approvals by their respective organizations. The following describes the terms under
which each of the stakeholders would perform:
The donor community has publicly announced a lead gift of $5 million through the
leadership of the Bradley Foundation and an anonymous donor. This gift is conditional
upon MPM raising a matching $5 million in donations as well as conditional upon actions
by the other stakeholders. The initial $5 million will be paid over a 2-year period. The
donated funds would be used to:
1. Pay down and eliminate the Term and Working Capital Line of Credit (Revolver)
Loans which were put in place through Chase and M&I banks and guaranteed by
Milwaukee County in June 2005. The County’s guarantee would be eliminated as
that debt is extinguished.
2. Reestablish Endowment funds that were borrowed and used for operations in
2002 - 2005.
Milwaukee County has indicated they could provide support in two key areas, which
would involve amending the current Lease and Management Agreement between the
County and MPM, which is allowed for under Section 8.3:
1. Annual Operating Support - Hold annual appropriations to MPM at the 2006 level
of funding for a period of 10 years beginning in 2008. This equates to $3.5
million per year. (Section 5.2)
2. Capital Improvement Commitment – Provide a minimum of $4.0 million over a
period of 5 years from 2008 to 2012 to address deferred maintenance projects that
have been identified. (Section 5.9)
The banks have agreed to restructure the remaining $16.7 million in long-term debt over
a period of 30 years at reduced rates. The restructuring, combined with the debt
elimination provided by the donors, would lower the MPM’s annual debt service cost
from its current level of over $1.2 million annually to approximately $450,000 annually
for a period of 5 years. The remaining 25 years would be amortized using a 2% interest
rate (See attached Amortization Schedule). This new agreement would go into effect
May 1st with annual principal payments being made by December 31st of each year.

Closed Session

To address the near term shortfall in cash between June and October, MPM will pursue
the following options:
1. Request accelerated County payments by 30 days (July 1 to May 30, October 1 to
September 4)
2. Take further cost reduction actions
3. Generate additional donor support
MPM has offered to resolve the purchase contract for the old Discover World building
under terms that are reduced from the original agreement, which contained a purchase
price of $6 million; $5 million at closing with $200,000 per year for 5 years. The current
offer provides for a total purchase price of $2.5 million, consisting of 5 years at $150,000
per year with a balloon payment of $1.75 million by December 2012. The building
acquisition will be financed by the seller at seller’s cost. The County will be required to
transfer the ground lease to MPM associated with the property.
The MPM board and management will complete a Capital Campaign feasibility study,
establish leadership for the campaign, and launch the campaign. The goals of the
campaign will be to:
1. Provide matching funds for the $5 million challenge grant
2. Improve MPM permanent exhibits and educational programs
3. Provide funding of world class exhibits to bring to the community
4. Reestablish scientific resources and expertise in curatorial and research areas
5. Add new exhibits and programs
6. Grow the museum’s endowment funds to support mission-related activities
The campaign assumes raising a minimum of $25 million in addition to the $10 million
raised through the $5 million challenge grant.

MPM Update
Thursday, April 19, 2007 4:04:23 PM

I just spoke to Dan Finley. I did not realize this but the $5 million Bradley
Foundation donation is contingent upon resolution of the DW issue and it
appears the Bradley Foundation is holding firm on this condition. DW has
agreed to a sale price of $3.0 million paid by MPM over five years at no
interest. However, DW wants a $1.0 million payment upfront with payments of
$200,000 per year for 3-years with a balloon payment at the end. M&I and the
Bradley Foundation have agreed to kick in another $500,000 for the upfront
payment to DW. This has not satisfied DW. The deal is stalling over this
issue.
In terms of process, I suggested to Finley that once a deal is in place, a
letter should be drafted to Holloway and Walker from the members of the
Recovery Committee stating the recommended course of action and that each
member of the Recovery Committee should sign it. I recommended against the
proposed term sheet in favor of a letter because a letter was less formal and
less binding.
Given that final package is not yet in place and the need for a Recovery
Committee meeting to bless the final package, I am not confident this will make
it for the May cycle.

Re: FW: MPM Debt Amortization
Thursday, April 19, 2007 4:28:04 PM

My comments on the attached proposal:
There needs to be some clarity or specificity in terms the timing of the loan
guarantee payoff. Will it be from the first draw on the $5 million donation
over two years?
The County capital commitment should not refer to "deferred maintenance" but
rather use the term (capital improvements?) in the existing lease. The
projects funded should be consistent with the terms of the existing lease
agreement and be mutually agreed to by MPM and the County. I do not want to
set a precedent for funding maintenance items that are not currently the
County's responsibility under the lease agreement. (I realize we may indeed do
this, but I don't want to expand the language in the existing lease. I also
know this is a gray area -- but lets keep it gray).
I talked to Dan Finley and he explained where things are. I recommend that the
final package be drafted in the form of a letter to Holloway and Walker from
the Recovery Committee members with each member signing it -- not in the form
of a term sheet. I envision this would require review by RC members and a
final meeting of the Recovery Committee. MPM can sign legal agreements with
the non-county entities, but I am not comfortable signing a "term sheet" since
I do not have authority to do so.
Also, note the County is expecting to see the debt schedule as prepared by the
bank before moving ahead.
Those are my general comments. Keep me posted on how things are going.
Thanks.

Re: 2008 Requested Budget Levy Targets
Friday, April 20, 2007 9:43:27 AM

Fringe is fully funded. No one is taking hits for fringe or keeping savings.
We broke even all departments for fringe and then we allocated the debt. The
final levy target is the net of the increase (due to added cost) or decrease
(due to fringe savings) with the debt allocation then distributed. Again,
fringe was fully funded. The reductions in levy are due to debt, not fringe.

        2008 Requested Budget Levy Targets





This afternoon I received the 2008 Tax Levy Target for DAS. This is being done
a little differently this year in that instead of receiving individuals
targets, the DAS divisions of Office for Persons with Disabilities, Human
Resources, Labor Relations, Employee Benefits, Risk Management, Fiscal Affairs,
Procurement and IMSD have been given a collective target. I am provided with
the authority to distribute the tax levy across the divisions as I see fit.
Our collective target is $26,800,733. This represents a collective decrease of
$337,486 from 2007. In addition to having to decrease our collective levy, we
also need to absorb pay increases and step increases. Also, this is
complicated by the fact that some of you are taking hits in your fringe budgets
due to changes made centrally and would have ostensibly received targets with
small levy increases if they had been assigned individually, while others

CArcher_Email3012229

experienced fringe savings and therefore would have been required to make
bigger cuts.
I am not certain yet how I want to approach this. One option is to have each
of you submit to me a plan for a zero tax levy budget at least 2-3 weeks before
June 18, and then I will work with staff here to come up with the $337,486.
Another is for me to come up with a formula for allocating this amount across
each of your divisions and to then give you your own individual targets.
Obviously, there are other alternatives as well.
For now, I would like each of you to proceed under the assumption that you need
to come in at zero with the exception of IMSD, which is by far the biggest
budget and should plan for now for a cut of $150,000 (Mary, come see me if you
wish and I can explain to you how I came up with that number). I would then
like to spend time discussing this at our next DAS managers meeting and come up
with a final game plan.
Please let me know if you have any comments or concerns.
-- Rob

POB language for Milwaukee County

My Capital Finance Manager has been working with you on modifications to the
language related to POB's that was included in the Governor's budget bill. Can
you let me know if changes have been submitted to JCF and if so can I get a
copy? We are preparing for our meetings with rating agencies next week and I
want to be sure we are using the correct language as proposed by the Governor.

Levy Targets and unfunded DC 48 positions
Friday, April 20, 2007 11:31:14 AM

I understand that you have both expressed concern to Rob about the levy targets
for your department and the fact that your targets were not adjusted upward to
fund the salary and social security costs for the DC48 positions unfunded in
the 2007 budget. I have talked several times a Cabinet about being judicious
when deciding how many of these are critical to fill in 2007 since I recognized
those costs would carryover to 2008 and would need to be absorbed within your
budget. I continue to believe that you need to proceed carefully with your
request to fill these positions in 2007 since decisions made now will impact
your flexibility in 2008.
James has met with Facilities and we are close to reaching conclusion on
filling positions for 2007. George, if you would like to adjust your request
given your 2008 target, please let him know. Alex will meet with Parks this
afternoon.
Thanks.

        2008 tax levy target





I just received the 2008 tax levy target for the Sheriff's Office of
$62,048,214.
This target is $2,952,899 less than the 2007 adopted budget for the Sheriff's
Office of $65,001,113.
In addition, the base personal service budget for 2008 includes a wage and
benefit increase of $2,137,353.
Therefore, the Sheriff will need to make a tax levy reduction of $5,090,252 in
his 2008 budget request to meet the tax levy target.
Please confirm that this is what the Department of Administration and the
County Executive intended when establishing the 2008 tax levy target for the
Sheriff's Office.

        Update on MPM Recovery Actions






Cindy/Terry,
We have been informed by the Banks of a position they are taking which varies
significantly from our assumptions up until now. Up until today, our
assumption was the debt would be amortized over a longer term - 30 years,
similar to what was discussed earlier when we were looking at the option of the
County taking over the debt. At that time, the banks were talking about a 15
year term on a 30 year amortization schedule.
The banks are now taking the position that they will only be providing a
reduced rate package for a period of 5 years. At that point, the balance of
MPM's debt principal of approximately $16.1 million will be due (using the 5
year principal amounts in the amortization they are assuming).
I believe the County made additional moves in this negotiation to fix the level
of funding for 10 years, and then raise it back to the 2006 level based on the
assumptions the banks were providing 2% money over 30 years and then
additionally providing significantly reduced debt service requirements in the
CArcher_Email3012238

first 5 years to meet the cash flow restrictions MPM was projecting, allowing
time for the museum to get the capital campaign fundraising done.
A key issue now is what is the County's position in light of the above. Are we
now back to square one or ??. This situation also makes it much more
difficult for the museum to conduct a capital campaign with $16M due on the 5
year horizon and the associated refinancing risk.
We will need to discuss this further at your earliest convenience. Please let
me know your availability.

Sooo happy to see you again.

Congratulations on you your new position. It will be both challenging and
rewarding for sure.

My time spent with Rob Henken went very well for me. He seems like he would be
a great person to work for.

I started thinking about the possibilities of working with you again. Think of
the great things that we could accomplish at Milwaukee County. Looks like there
are many things that we could change. The IT budget and staff have significant
dollars that could be reviewed and made more efficient. Some of the things you
worked on at Brown County could be re-used at Milwaukee.

My wife and I lived in the Milwaukee area for 20-years and we want to move back
to the area. Any help with opportunities at Milwaukee County would be greatly
appreciated.

Thank you again for your consideration.

Friends forever.

Re: 2008 tax levy target
Monday, April 23, 2007 9:17:28 AM

Jon, I have a couple of comments about how the targets were set.
The first thing we did was make departments whole for fringe benefits. Because
of the way the 2007 was set (a number of technical errors plus lump summing
that did not reduce fringe), some departments were underbudgeted for fringe
while others were overbudgeted. We made these adjustments which required
increasing levy overall by almost $1.6 million. For example, when you compare
the 2007 budget to the 2008 base the Sheriff was overbudgeted in fringe by
$238,970 and the HOC was overbudgeted in fringe by $1,885,473. We bought the
levy down by this amount. Second, when comparing your 2008 base to the 2007
adopted budget keep in mind that the 2008 base assumes all positions authorized
are fully funded. The base restores positions that departments kept vacant or
unfunded in 2007. To the extent you had unfunded positions or can built into
your levy vacancy and turnover savings you have some room. Lastly, the item
driving the 2008 budget is debt service. Several years ago the debt was
refinanced to allow for savings that could be used for operations. 2008 is the
year these payments begin to "come back on the books." The debt was spread to
each department proportionately.
In terms of what departments will need to absorb, you are correct departments
are asked to absorb the 2008 portion of wage increases (2007 is built in) and
the increase in debt service, but not the fringe. The levy targets were set
such that fringe and pension are fully funded. I realize that this is a
difficult budget, not unlike past years however, the method used attempted to
be fair to all departments recognizing that the 2008 base is inflated due to
the items mentioned above.
Call me if you want to discuss.

        2008 tax levy target





I just received the 2008 tax levy target for the Sheriff's Office of
$62,048,214.
This target is $2,952,899 less than the 2007 adopted budget for the Sheriff's
Office of $65,001,113.
In addition, the base personal service budget for 2008 includes a wage and
benefit increase of $2,137,353.
Therefore, the Sheriff will need to make a tax levy reduction of $5,090,252 in
his 2008 budget request to meet the tax levy target.
Please confirm that this is what the Department of Administration and the
County Executive intended when establishing the 2008 tax levy target for the
Sheriff's Office.

        Update on MPM Recovery Actions






Cindy/Terry,
We have been informed by the Banks of a position they are taking which varies
significantly from our assumptions up until now. Up until today, our
assumption was the debt would be amortized over a longer term - 30 years,
similar to what was discussed earlier when we were looking at the option of the
County taking over the debt. At that time, the banks were talking about a 15
year term on a 30 year amortization schedule.
The banks are now taking the position that they will only be providing a
reduced rate package for a period of 5 years. At that point, the balance of
MPM's debt principal of approximately $16.1 million will be due (using the 5
year principal amounts in the amortization they are assuming).
I believe the County made additional moves in this negotiation to fix the level
of funding for 10 years, and then raise it back to the 2006 level based on the
assumptions the banks were providing 2% money over 30 years and then
CArcher_Email3012265

additionally providing significantly reduced debt service requirements in the
first 5 years to meet the cash flow restrictions MPM was projecting, allowing
time for the museum to get the capital campaign fundraising done.
A key issue now is what is the County's position in light of the above. Are we
now back to square one or ??. This situation also makes it much more
difficult for the museum to conduct a capital campaign with $16M due on the 5
year horizon and the associated refinancing risk.
We will need to discuss this further at your earliest convenience. Please let
me know your availability.

Re: 2008 tax levy target
Monday, April 23, 2007 9:54:55 AM

You are correct. Now your number makes more sense to me -- the reduction is
approx $3 million. This is about a 3.5% reduction in your budget and you are
correct, 2008 wage adjustments (but not fringe) must be abosorbed on top of
this. The tough nut in this budget is the debt.

        Re: 2008 tax levy target





Thank you for the quick response and explanation of the process used by DAS to
calculate the 2008 tax levy target.
I anticipated that departments would have to absorb salary cost increases but
did not know about the additional cost of debt service in the 2008 budget.
Therefore I expected a 2008 target for the Sheriff's Office equal to the 2007
adopted tax levy of $65,001,113.
When I saw that the 2008 target was only $62,048,214, I wanted to be sure that
DAS was looking for a tax levy reduction of almost three million dollars from
the Sheriff in his 2008 budget request before I discuss the target with the
Sheriff.

        Re: 2008 tax levy target





Jon, I have a couple of comments about how the targets were set.
The first thing we did was make departments whole for fringe benefits. Because
of the way the 2007 was set (a number of technical errors plus lump summing
that did not reduce fringe), some departments were underbudgeted for fringe
while others were overbudgeted. We made these adjustments which required
increasing levy overall by almost $1.6 million. For example, when you compare
the 2007 budget to the 2008 base the Sheriff was overbudgeted in fringe by
$238,970 and the HOC was overbudgeted in fringe by $1,885,473. We bought the
levy down by this amount. Second, when comparing your 2008 base to the 2007
adopted budget keep in mind that the 2008 base assumes all positions authorized
are fully funded. The base restores positions that departments kept vacant or
unfunded in 2007. To the extent you had unfunded positions or can built into
your levy vacancy and turnover savings you have some room. Lastly, the item
driving the 2008 budget is debt service. Several years ago the debt was
refinanced to allow for savings that could be used for operations. 2008 is the
year these payments begin to "come back on the books." The debt was spread to
each department proportionately.
In terms of what departments will need to absorb, you are correct departments
are asked to absorb the 2008 portion of wage increases (2007 is built in) and
the increase in debt service, but not the fringe. The levy targets were set
such that fringe and pension are fully funded. I realize that this is a
difficult budget, not unlike past years however, the method used attempted to
be fair to all departments recognizing that the 2008 base is inflated due to
the items mentioned above.
Call me if you want to discuss.

        2008 tax levy target





I just received the 2008 tax levy target for the Sheriff's Office of
$62,048,214.
This target is $2,952,899 less than the 2007 adopted budget for the Sheriff's
Office of $65,001,113.
In addition, the base personal service budget for 2008 includes a wage and
benefit increase of $2,137,353.
Therefore, the Sheriff will need to make a tax levy reduction of $5,090,252 in
his 2008 budget request to meet the tax levy target.
Please confirm that this is what the Department of Administration and the
County Executive intended when establishing the 2008 tax levy target for the
Sheriff's Office.

My understanding is that Parks has already made an offer to someone. I know
that Josh was #2. My fear is that if the Parks candidate turns them down, they
will then move quickly to make an offer to Josh. You may want to proceed
quickly but I will leave it up to you.

I was hoping to do interviews next week but I think PArks is doing their second
round this week. Do we know who the top candidate is at Parks? Could we get
Josh in here Wed after noon or Friday morning? I could do an interview with
him at those times if it works for anyone else.

HiI looked at the applications over the weekend also. I agree with Molly's
assessment with a few exceptions that I can talk to her about directly. The top
9 candidates I am on board with. I think I should get a list from HR today. I
will call Josh and touch base with him and see if he can come in later this
week to meet with Molly (who else do we want there so I can coordinate with the
staff?). I can also call Dante Daly who only sent a resume and ask if he could
fill out the application. Once we get the list I will have Kat start
scheduleing people. What days are we aiming for next week? Molly- if you want
to take over any of these tasks, please let me know. I am just trying to keep
things moving.

Interviews





Hi guys, I was reviewing the applications and decided putting them into a
spreadsheet made more sense for me so I'm sending it out in case anyone else
wants to use it and because it has people in the order of priority for
interviews for me.   I'm not sure how many interviewees we are planning on
bringing and I should mention that I put on the sheet what I'm looking for from
the candidates. Anyway, talk to you on Monday or Tuesday about this. Thanks,
Molly

POBs/JFC
Monday, April 23, 2007 11:02:14 AM

Can Walker make some phone calls to his friends in the Legislature and try and
get the POB language back in the budget bill. I don't think this is
controversial since it came out of the Governor's task force and local business
groups support it. It is too important to us to just sit back and let this
go. I talked to Cooley and it does not seem the intergovernmental folks have a
good handle on what to do next. He made some comment about not wanting to tick
off the JCF co-chairs (??). I thought maybe if Walker could think about how he
wants to handle this we might be better served getting some action on this.
Let me know your thoughts and if you want me to do something.

RE: Update on MPM Recovery Actions
Monday, April 23, 2007 5:26:55 PM

Will the DS payments still be about $450,000 for first 5 years and $750,000 for
second five years? When will we get a debt schedule from the bank? What is
the status of Discovery World?
I suggest we go over the detail before we proceed with a Recovery Committee

Cindy/Terry,
Dan met with Mark Hogan today from M&I and he said both banks are willing to do
a 10-year deal. I am wanting their offer in writing so that we can bring it
back to the recovery committee.   I will keep you posted.

        Update on MPM Recovery Actions







Cindy/Terry,
We have been informed by the Banks of a position they are taking which varies
significantly from our assumptions up until now. Up until today, our
assumption was the debt would be amortized over a longer term - 30 years,
similar to what was discussed earlier when we were looking at the option of the
County taking over the debt. At that time, the banks were talking about a 15
year term on a 30 year amortization schedule.
The banks are now taking the position that they will only be providing a
reduced rate package for a period of 5 years. At that point, the balance of
MPM's debt principal of approximately $16.1 million will be due (using the 5
year principal amounts in the amortization they are assuming).
I believe the County made additional moves in this negotiation to fix the level
of funding for 10 years, and then raise it back to the 2006 level based on the
assumptions the banks were providing 2% money over 30 years and then
additionally providing significantly reduced debt service requirements in the
first 5 years to meet the cash flow restrictions MPM was projecting, allowing
time for the museum to get the capital campaign fundraising done.
A key issue now is what is the County's position in light of the above. Are we
now back to square one or ??. This situation also makes it much more
difficult for the museum to conduct a capital campaign with $16M due on the 5
year horizon and the associated refinancing risk.

For the record, I did not say we would definitely have a recommendation by
June, I said that we would try our best. At any rate, I think we need to get
the Board what we had discussed for this cycle and then I will meet with her
again once we determine what we can possibly have ready by June.

P.S. Interesting that my recommendation to her to get CB staff more involved
apparently was met with deaf ears.

Hello,
Rob and I met last week and discussed the performance contracting pilot. I just
wanted to follow up and request the report which will be coming to TPW and
Parks as soon as it is ready. What I was hoping to see was a report/analysis of
the pilot and the various contracts/outcomes etc. along with the with due
diligence performed by your office. I also would like a recommendation from DAS
so that we may proceed accordingly. Rob has informed that DAS/Fiscal may not be
able to have the recommendation in the May cycle, however we will definitely
have it by June.
The Greenprint is coming back in the June cycle for approval and the pilot
needs to be wrapped up by then. Please let me know if you have any
questions-thanks.

DEBT MANAGEMENT PRACTICES
 Continued Conservative Approach to Debt Management
 Self-Imposed limits and annual G.O. debt issues -- $30 million in 2008 and not more than 3% of prior year principal after
2008.
 Cash financing averaging 38% of capital projects over last 5-years to reduce reliance on debt.
 Aggressive amortization of outstanding debt -- __% of outstanding G.O. debt will be repaid within 10 years.
 Sales tax collections dedicated to annual debt service with County’s taxing authority also securing the debt.
 Debt service as a % of equalized value continues to decline (insert statistics)

CArcher_Email3012312

EXPANDING TAX BASE
 Average annual growth in equalized value – 8.63% over five years
 Growth in equalized value exceeding levy growth as evidenced by declining property tax rates

 Steady growth in County housing values – 38% increase in average home prices from 2002 to 2006
 Declining unemployment rate –decrease from 7.1% in 2003 to 5.9% in 2006

CArcher_Email3012314

TAXING CAPACITY
 Milwaukee County is governed by state-imposed tax limits.
 General Obligation debt not to exceed 5% of equalized value
---County consistently operates with surplus capacity under this limit ( excess capacity averaging 82% over last five years)
 General Obligation debt mill rate of $1.42 per $1,000 in equalized value
---Average debt mill rate over last five years $0.86 per $1,000 in equalized value
 Operating levy rate limit of $4.08 per $1,000 equalized value
---Average operating mill rate over last five years $3.66 per $1,000 in equalized value.
 2006 and 2007 Levy limit equal to increase in growth related to new construction or 2%, whichever is higher

Levy Cap
$_______
$243,305,734

Adopted Levy
$_________
$241,936,522

Room Under Cap
$_________
$1,369,212

 Continuation of the 2007/2007 levy limits by the state would allow for an estimated levy increase of $14.1 million in 2008.
 The Governor’s proposed 2007-2009 biennial budget includes a provision to increase the levy limits placed on County
governments to the greater of 4% or the growth in equalized value due to new construction. If passed by the Sate Legislature,
this would result in an increase in levy authority by approximately $17.5 million.

 2007 budget includes $_______ budgeted in a contingency fund to meet unexpected spending needs/revenue shortfalls.
 Expected unbudgeted transfer of excess CMO revenue to contingency fund of approximately $2.7 million.
 Passage of Governor’s budget bill likely to fully-fund juvenile corrections population increases for 2007.
 Corrective action may be required to bring budget back in balance.

CArcher_Email3012318

2008 BUDGET OUTLOOK
 Significant cost-to-continue pressures include:
-Increased wages and social security -- $9.0 million
-Increased employee fringe benefit costs – 9.5 million
-OPEB Liability Increase -- $1.8 million
-Increased General Obligation Debt Service -- $13.9 million
-Projected decrease in sales tax collections -- $2.2 million
-Misc. revenue reductions -- $4.2 million
 Major costs increases noted above total approximately $41 million.
 State levy limit proposals would allow increase in levy to offset costs ranging from $14.0-$17.0 million depending on which
proposal is ultimately adopted by the State Legislature.
 Projected structural imbalance will require expenditure reductions, revenue enhancements where possible and continued
attention to cost-containment measures to ensure balanced budget.

CArcher_Email3012319

RECENT COST CONTAINMENT MEASURES – Wages/Health Care Costs/Pension
 Settlement of labor agreements for 2006, 2007 and 2008
---Reached agreement with 3 of 8 labor unions including the County’s largest union (AFSME) which consists of 77%
of total represented staff.
---Agreements include modest pay increases
1% November 2007
1% April 2008
1% June 2008
1% October 2008

---Agreements contain employee health care concessions
Increased co-pays and deductibles
Restructuring of premiums to encourage steerage to lower cost plans

---Agreements complete the containment of 2001 pension enhancements by:
-Eliminating the pension backdrop payment for all new hires
-Reducing sick leave payouts for eligible employees from 100% to a maiximum of 25%
-Eliminating the Rule of 75 for all new hires.
 Establishments of Employee Wellness Program by June 2007 allowing proactive management of employee health care needs.
 2007 Budget included the creation of the new Employee Benefits Division to improve monitoring of health care expenditures
and design.

CArcher_Email3012320

 The County engaged the services of a benefits advisory consulting firms to assist with the creation and design of the new
division, negotiate with health care providers on the County’s behalf and analyze health care data to assist with plan design and
future cost-containment initiatives.
 In 2006, the County moved from a fully-insured health plan to self insured.
 Estimated savings of $18.7 million from 2006-2009
 Gives the County access to previously unavailable employee health care data.

CArcher_Email3012321

RECENT COST CONTAINMENT MEASURES – Unfunded Pension Liability
 Current Unfunded Liability
--County’s Current Unfunded Actuarial Liability is $455 million.
--Requires budgeted contribution of $1.25 billion over next 28 years
 County is seeking authorization from the State to issue Pension Obligation Bonds to finance this liability, stabilize County
contribution levels and gain budgetary savings.
 Proposed Structure Includes:
---$6.25 million in budgetary savings annually due to projected reduction in interest rate from 8% to 6%.
---County’s 1st year payment capitalizes a stabilization fund to protect the County against poor market performance.
---The County will make regular annual contributions to the stabilization fund.
---Bonds will be retired within 22 years vs the current 30-year amortization schedule.

CArcher_Email3012322

FUTURE OPPORTUNITIES
 Continued Public/Private Partnerships
 Policymaker’s continued commitment to quality of life investments
--Parks
--Cultural Assets
--Public Safety
Human Services
 Proposed 2007-2009 State Budget Provisions
 Continued Investments in automation to improve operational efficiencies
 Long-term County space planning initiative

CHALLENGES
 Ongoing need to balance taxation with continued economic growth and homeowner security.
 Long-term obligation related to unfunded pension liability.
 Loss of budget flexibility due to labor contracts prohibiting privatization.
 Budgeting at the margin due to the State’s prohibition on allowing Milwaukee County to build undesignated fund
balance.
 Continued cost pressures related to Employee Compensation and Fringe Benefits with limited availability of new
revenues.

As you know, the pension obligation bond provision was removed from the
Governor's budget. Our IGR staff is working to ensure that a stand alone bill
gets introduced and acted upon. To that end, I've been asked by Roy to attend
a meeting with Senator Wirch next Wednesday, May 2nd, at 10:00 a.m. to discuss
the matter. Senator Wirch is the Chairman of the Joint Survey Committee on
Retirement Systems, the committee expected to review the legislation.
Since I'm not an expert in all of the details of the bill, it might be good if
someone from DAS (or PFM?) attend with me so that we can address any questions
the Senator may have.   We have bond rating meetings that afternoon, but I
expect to be back from Madison before 1:00 p.m.
Let me know if you would like to attend or have suggestions on who should.
Thanks.

        RE: Update on MPM Recovery Actions






Yes, the first 5 years of debt service will be in the $450k range annually.
With the second 5 years, I have not seen those numbers from the banks yet but
using the 2% 30 year amortization schedule, the payment would be approximately
$826k per year in years 6-10. I am anticipating they will provide us a
document by the end of the this week that would include that schedule along
with other related covenants.
With respect to DW, my understanding is we have agreed on a price of $3M. DW
wants $1M up front. We have the first $0.5M identified from donors. The rest
is still being worked. We have discussed with Kevin Lindsey the possibility of
splitting the $1M over the first year but he still wants at least $0.7M as a
down payment. The balance would be paid $200k per year for 3 years with $1.4M
due in year 5. This would give us the time to raise that as part of our
capital campaign.
We are also continuing to look at further cost cutting measures. Given how are
hands are tied with the current labor agreement through August 31, we are
restricted as to certain aspects of the operation that would have an impact on
represented employees. An option would be to close the museum under "summer
hours". We have estimated closing the museum 2 days per week would provide
CArcher_Email3012334

$20-$25k per month savings from Mid-June until Mid-Sept. From a PR perspective
though, that may have a negative impact on donors and membership but that is
clearly a grey area.
Our healthcare contract is renewed on July 1st. The good news is we expect
minimal impact in our rates as our claims experience has been favorable this
past year.
We will back down on custodial maintenance costs as we hit the slower summer
attendance period.
I continue to see a problem in June with our cash needs. I would request that
we advance the July 1 County payment to May 28. Assuming it may take a couple
days to have those as usable funds, that would help meet the May 31 payroll
(May having 3 payrolls). Can you please provide guidance as to how I can
appropriately request that? I am not sure what the right steps would be.
Thanks,
Mike

        Update on MPM Recovery Actions


CArcher_Email3012336






Cindy/Terry,
We have been informed by the Banks of a position they are taking which varies
significantly from our assumptions up until now. Up until today, our
assumption was the debt would be amortized over a longer term - 30 years,
similar to what was discussed earlier when we were looking at the option of the
County taking over the debt. At that time, the banks were talking about a 15
year term on a 30 year amortization schedule.
The banks are now taking the position that they will only be providing a
reduced rate package for a period of 5 years. At that point, the balance of
MPM's debt principal of approximately $16.1 million will be due (using the 5
year principal amounts in the amortization they are assuming).
I believe the County made additional moves in this negotiation to fix the level
of funding for 10 years, and then raise it back to the 2006 level based on the
assumptions the banks were providing 2% money over 30 years and then
additionally providing significantly reduced debt service requirements in the
first 5 years to meet the cash flow restrictions MPM was projecting, allowing
time for the museum to get the capital campaign fundraising done.
A key issue now is what is the County's position in light of the above. Are we
now back to square one or ??. This situation also makes it much more
difficult for the museum to conduct a capital campaign with $16M due on the 5
year horizon and the associated refinancing risk.
We will need to discuss this further at your earliest convenience. Please let
me know your availability.

Approval to fill housekeeping and security positions
Wednesday, April 25, 2007 2:02:54 PM

Jack,
I understand that you and James met to go over your staffing plans for 2007 and
your unfunded DC48 positions. As I mentioned in my letter, your budget as
adopted partially unfunded 20 FTE in security and housekeeping. Based on our
analysis, funding these positions for the remainder of the year would have
required an additional salary and social security appropriation of
approximately $760,000. I asked that you work with DAS to identify the most
critical of the 20 FTE that needed to be filled in an effort to minimize the
size of a 2007 shortfall.
I understand that you and James have agreed that your critical needs include
the immediate filling of 5 security positions and 5 housekeeping positions.
While your budget includes the full funding of the fringe related to these 10
positions, it does not include sufficient salary and social security funds
related to filling these. Filling the 10 above identified positions will leave
your budget short by approximately $227,000. You may proceed with filling the
10 FTE requested. I understand that by doing so your budget will be
underfunded by a maximum of $227,000. DAS will attempt to identify sufficient
savings in other parts of County government so that this shortfall can be
funded.

I also understand that you will want to fill the remaining 10 unfunded
positions in July. Please know that your ability to fill the remaining 10 in
July will be dependent upon your ability to absorb the cost associated with
filling these. If these are high priority positions, you have flexibility to
manage other vacancies or identify other savings within your department
sufficient to cover the costs of filling the remaining unfunded security and
housekeeping positions.
Sorry, this is the best I can do. Call me if you want to discuss and thanks
for your patience as we worked through this.   Remember, anything you fill now
will have to be absorbed within your 2008 levy targets -- be careful. :)

Fw: Approval to fill housekeeping and security positions
Wednesday, April 25, 2007 2:08:10 PM

In case this comes up. See email below.
I agreed to fill 5 vacant security and 5 vacant housekeeping positions as
described below. This will leave a hole in their budget of approx. $227,000
that I will try to fill at the end of the year. I have also told them below
that I will not be approving the remaining 10 unfunded positions (they had a
total of 20 unfunded) unless they can demonstrate they can absorb the cost
within their budget. I think this is doable given the size of their budget and
the number of vacancies they have in other areas. I also think it is fair.
Let me know if you have questions.

Dorothy,
Thank you again for all of your help.
I just wanted to follow up with you regarding two things:
1. Schedule a brief follow up call with Cindy so that we can share what we
learned from the Museum. Again, we don’t think there is a role for us to play,
but thought we should download what we learned.
2. As Executive Walker suggested, we would love to meet with the Executive
Director of the Bradley foundation, both to share ideas about the museum and to
talk about some of their initiatives in Education and elsewhere. We would love
to discuss our work with the Broad Foundation in New York, which led us to our
engagement restructuring the NYC school system.
Finally, please do let me know when Scott might next be headed to Washington
DC. There are a number of folks I think he would enjoy meeting here.
As always, many thanks and all the best,
David

        Friendly reminder





Pam, based on the discussions from the March 29 2007 Finance & Audit Committee
meeting:
Supervisor Nyklewicz requested that Ms. Bryant, submit in writing, what the
2008 fiscal challenge would be for the budget as it relates to the policy that
is currently in place.
The Committee indicated that they would welcome commentary from the County
Executive given the fact he has already taken a position relative to the tax
levy. He can share his thoughts on how the gap will be covered.
Ms. Bryant stated she would provide the report after the bond issue because the
final numbers will have an impact.
A report summary will come before the Committee in June.

        Re: Approval to fill housekeeping and security positions





Good Afternoon Cindy,
        I would like to request a sit down with all parties concerned to sit
and discuss where we go from here. Having just received our targets for the
2008 budgets, I'm now concerned, not only for a 2007 deficit, but also how we
will deal with 2008 given the targets. While I appreciate the opportunity that
allows me to determine how to split the pot, I believe we have some residual
items from the 2007 budget that have yet to reconciled that will have a
significant impact on the department. Please let me know when you think we can
get together to come to resolve with these items.
Thanks,
George

Jack,
I understand that you and James met to go over your staffing plans for 2007 and
your unfunded DC48 positions. As I mentioned in my letter, your budget as
adopted partially unfunded 20 FTE in security and housekeeping. Based on our
analysis, funding these positions for the remainder of the year would have
required an additional salary and social security appropriation of
approximately $760,000. I asked that you work with DAS to identify the most
critical of the 20 FTE that needed to be filled in an effort to minimize the
size of a 2007 shortfall.
I understand that you and James have agreed that your critical needs include
the immediate filling of 5 security positions and 5 housekeeping positions.
While your budget includes the full funding of the fringe related to these 10
positions, it does not include sufficient salary and social security funds
related to filling these. Filling the 10 above identified positions will leave
your budget short by approximately $227,000. You may proceed with filling the
10 FTE requested. I understand that by doing so your budget will be
underfunded by a maximum of $227,000. DAS will attempt to identify sufficient
savings in other parts of County government so that this shortfall can be
funded.

I also understand that you will want to fill the remaining 10 unfunded
positions in July. Please know that your ability to fill the remaining 10 in
July will be dependent upon your ability to absorb the cost associated with
filling these. If these are high priority positions, you have flexibility to
manage other vacancies or identify other savings within your department
sufficient to cover the costs of filling the remaining unfunded security and
housekeeping positions.
Sorry, this is the best I can do. Call me if you want to discuss and thanks
for your patience as we worked through this.   Remember, anything you fill now
will have to be absorbed within your 2008 levy targets -- be careful. :)

Re: Fw: Financial Management Assessment
Wednesday, April 25, 2007 6:45:53 PM

Pam came in before she left and said the meetings with the rating agencies are
screwed up. Apparently, she had our financial consultant schedule them and
they did not make it clear that the rating agencies were suppose to come here
so they have been scheulded as phone conferences. Needless to say, I became
very agitated over this news. She said she told Dave ($) to call them back and
try to fix it. I told her to call Dave and demand that he get this straighten
out since we have the CEX and Board Chair expecting their presence. I also
told her that it is likely now that calandars are booked and that every effort
should be made to stick with the original times and dates.
Rob, the most concerning part about this is that she seemed so laid back about
the whole thing and that she did not confirm exactly what was suppose to
happen. I don't even know what to say at this point. A strong reaction from
you in the morning on this mess up is warranted because I do not think I am
getting through to her. (ugh!)

2006 Fiscal Year
The 2006 third quarter report for Milwaukee County presented in December 2006
projected an ending deficit of $1,500,000.
Subsequently, the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) updated this projection
with information available after the first report had been submitted. This updated report
presented in March 2007 described an improvement in the 2006 year-end financial
position and projected a surplus of approximately $2,000,000. The change in financial
position from the initial third quarter report is the result of a decrease in the projected
deficit for Employee Fringe Benefits as well as surpluses in Earnings on Investments and
the Department on Aging-Care Maintenance Organization (CMO).
DAS is still in the process of completing its analysis for the 2006 closing including:
departmental results, balance sheet accounts, and carryovers. The final results will not be
known until June 2007.
2007 Fiscal YearConcerns
Early estimates for 2006 indicate projected shortfalls in the areas of juvenile corrections
($1.9 million), Housing and Economic Development ($980,000), mental health services
($1.7 million and sales tax collections ($1.9 million). However, these projected shortfalls
will be offset by the availability of approximately $3.1 million contingency funds
budgeted in 2007 for unanticipated resource needs, the unexpected increase in surplus
funds in the County’s Care Management Organization ($2.7 million) and positive
employee health care trends that are expected to produce higher than budgeted savings.
suggest the County will operate with a deficit of $8.9 million unless corrective action is
taken over the course of the year. The 2006 projected deficit is based on excess
expenditures and revenue shortfalls in departments during 2005 that were not known until
after the 2006 Budget was adopted. Budgets that are estimated to deficit in 2006 are
Parks ($2.7 million), Courts ($1.5 million), House of Corrections ($650,000), and
Appropriation for Contingencies ($4.0 million).
The projected $2.7 million deficit in the Parks Department 2006 budget is the result of
the preliminary final results for the department in 2005, which will require an adjustment
to the 2006 revenue budget. DAS provided a 2006 corrective action plan for the Parks
Department, along with the disclosure of the 2005 deficit, to the Board of Supervisors in
January 2006. The Board of Supervisors has deferred action on a 2006 corrective action
plan for the Parks Department until 2005 final results are known. In the interim, DAS
has taken an aggressive stance to manage the Parks 2006 budget and is engaged, on a
weekly basis, to assure appropriate management of Parks’ finances. However, absent the
implementation of a corrective action plan the Parks Department will likely generate an
operating deficit for 2006.
Additional projected shortfalls for 2006 are the result of revenues and savings not being
realized at the 2006 budgeted levels in Courts and House of Correction. The 2006 Courts
budget included “salary savings” of $1 million that must be achieved through holding
positions vacant. This target is unlikely to be realized, as the most recent projection based
on payroll data indicates a projected deficit of $1.5 million in salaries. The 2006 House
of Correction budget is based on the closure of 6 of the dormitories and continuation of
housing State prisoners. Current population needs for 2006 have the HOC currently

CArcher_Email3012357

operating with 5 dormitories closed. This development, if sustained, results in a deficit of
$400,000 (annual cost of operating a dormitory). Additionally, the State has informed the
County that it will cancel its contract for housing State prisoners. No date has been
determined for the termination of this contract. If the agreement is terminated in 2006, the
House of Correction could lose net revenues of $250,000, raising the total the projected
for 2006 to $650,000.
The County’s budgeted contingency fund for 2006 included $10.2 million in health
insurance related revenues based on reduced employer premiums, the implementation of
co-payments and prescription drug pricing structures, particularly for retirees, and
increased employee contributions that will go into effect on July 1, 2006. In January
2006 an estimate, based on current enrollment data, updated projected revenues to $6.2
million, which is $4.0 million lower than originally budgeted. The budget assumed
10,278 employees would enroll in the new County health care plan in 2006: 4,504 active
employees and 5,744 retirees. Based on preliminary data, the actual enrollment was
10,581 participants: 4,566 active employees and 6,015 retirees or 303 additional
participants.
The Department of Administrative Services is in the process of assessing the County’s
overall fiscal situation and will be developing a corrective action plan for addressing the
projected deficit for 2006 that will be presented to the Board of Supervisors in early
2006. The County’s ability to achieve a balanced operating budget in 2006 will depend
on its success in adopting and implementing a corrective action plan, as well as its ability
to achieve currently projected revenues and control other budgeted expenditures.
Future Fiscal OutlookConcerns
As is the case with most local governments, employee compensation and fringe benefits
continue to present budget challenges for Milwaukee County. However, during the last
year the County has reached labor settlements with three of its eight unions including the
County’s largest union (AFSCME) which represents almost 80% of the represented staff
in Milwaukee County. During labor negotiations the County was able to secure modest
pay increases for 2007 and 2008, employee health care concessions and pension
enhancement roll-backs.
Recent labor negotiations concluded with wage settlements of 1% effective November
2007, 1% effective April 2008, 1% effective June 2008 and 1% effective October 2008.
The settled labor contracts also included increased health insurance co-payments and
deductibles and the restructuring of health insurance premiums to encourage steerage to
lower cost health plans resulting in projected health care savings of $2.5 million in 2007
and $3.0 million in 2008. Finally, the labor agreements included provisions to eliminate
the Rule of 75 for all new hires, eliminate the pension backdrop payment for all new hires
and limit the payout of sick leave upon retirement from 100% to a maximum of 25% for
all future sick leave earned (except for Deputy Sheriffs).
In addition to recent labor settlements, the County has moved aggressively to control the
growth in employee health care costs thorough other avenues. The County’s 2007
Budget included authorization to create a new Employee Benefits Division that will focus
solely on managing and identifying cost-containment opportunities in the areas of

CArcher_Email3012358

employee health care, ------- and _______. The Division has secured the services of a
benefits advisory consulting firm to assist with the creation, design and staffing of the
new division and the development of data models on recently acquired employee health
care cost and utilization databases. One of the first direction given to the new Division is
the development and implementation of an Employee Wellness Program that will target
services and assistance to high-end health care users in an effort to further contain costs
and improve overall employee health and productivity. The Employee Wellness Program
will be implemented in January 2008.
Finally, in mid-2006 the County converted from a fully-insured health plan to selfinsured. Under the self-insured model the County will gain access to employee health
cost and utilization data not previously available. The availablility of this data will allow
the County to develop data-driven cost containment initiatives targeted at cost centers and
utilization areas yielding the greatest return. Prior to converting to self-insured, the
County faced health care cost increases of 17%-18% per year for the years 2007, 2008
and 2009. Moving to self-insured will result in estimated savings of $18.7 million from
2007-2009 as the rate of increase is expected to decrease to the range of 13%-15% per
year.
It should be noted that the above modifications to employee health care became effective
for non-represented staff, selected unions and County retirees early in 2006, while the
County’s largest union did not settle until late 2006 early 2007. The combined impact of
the above changes is evidenced by a material decrease in the rate of health care cost
growth during 2006 when the County saw a 3% increase vs the projected 17% increase.
The county’s projection for 2007 has been adjusted to reflect an expected increase of 9%
compared to the earlier 13%-15% increase.
While the County has made great strides over the last year in securing employee
concessions in the area of employee health care and the roll-back of the 2001 pension
enhancements, employee compensation and fringe benefits will continue to be a cost
pressure in the 2008 budget and beyond.

In an attempt to understand the near-term and long-term challenges facing the County,
DAS has conducted a careful review of the County’s fiscal situation and has prepared a
preliminary five-year fiscal projection of County budgets from 2007 to 2011. These are
projections based on current information and are subject to revision. This review has
identified a structural problem resulting from expenditure commitments that exceed
received and earned revenues over the five years. The table below illustrates the

CArcher_Email3012359

projected annual gaps, in millions of current dollars, which the County may be facing
over these five years.

Within the next five years (2007-2011) expenditures, driven by employee benefits (health
insurance, pension contributions and OPEB), are projected to escalate at a rate that
exceeds revenue growth. (Current preliminary estimates for future health insurance,
pension contributions and OPEB liabilities do not incorporate actuarial analyses, which
are still to be completed.) Although employee benefit cost pressures are not unique to
Milwaukee County government, the consequences for the County, without significant
corrective action, are potentially significant. Over this same period revenues, with the
exception of property taxes and Federal Transportation Revenue, are anticipated to
remain relatively flat. Increases to the property tax levy reflect the maximum allowable
levy based on the State cap imposed in 2005. In 2005, legislation was approved that
created another cap on property tax levy for the years 2005 to 2007. For purposes of the
forecasting analysis, DAS assumed that the cap would remain in place for the years 2007
to 2011. Federal Transportation Revenue is anticipated to decline over the forecast
period.
Healthcare costs are projected to increase by 17 percent per year over the next five years.
The annual projected increases range from $12 million in 2007 to $37 million in 2011.
No other budget category is expected to increase as dramatically as employee health
insurance. The County’s budgeted pension contribution is $27.4 million in 2006, which
reflects funding for normal costs. An actuarial review in October 2005 by Milliman, Inc.,
the actuary for the County’s Employee Retirement System, stated that the
“recommended” future pension contribution could be $50 million or more. The projected
contribution for 2007 is $50 million or a $23 million increase over the 2006 budget based
on Milliman’s October 2005 estimate. This would follow a pension funding plan
designed to improve the funding position of the County’s Employee Retirement System
from its current funded level of 79% to a funded level of 100% at the end of the ERS’s
adopted funding plan, approximately 30 years. Projected future contribution increases
are projected to increase $3 million a year for each remaining year of the five-year
period, e.g., $53 million in 2008, and $56 million in 2009. In early 2006, the County
Executive will convene an advisory group to recommend proposals for addressing the
County’s future pension funding, including a possible move to a defined contribution
funding mechanism. See “Milwaukee County Retirement System” section for more
detailed information.
In addition to the increased pension contribution, there is an anticipated expenditure
increase of $29 million to fund, in accordance with GASB 45, the initial year of OPEB
liabilities for County proprietary funds that receive property tax levy.

CArcher_Email3012360

The combination of the foregoing anticipated expense increases, current revenue
assumptions and present statutorily imposed tax caps would result in a significant excess
of expenditures over revenues in 2007, and in each succeeding year for the period
examined. If the County were unable to implement adequate corrective actions in a
timely manner, increasing gaps between revenues and expenditures would risk significant
adverse consequences for the County, its budgeting, its operations and, potentially, its
ability to meet its operating obligations as they become due.
Resolving this structural imbalance will require Milwaukee County to review its current
expenditure commitments, revenue streams and the cost pressures outlined above. The
County will then need to decide whether it will reduce expenditure commitments to
accommodate the projected costs of health benefits, pension contributions and OPEB or
seek and implement new revenue sources. This will necessitate a reevaluation by the
County of its core functions, and the funding assumptions used to support them.
DAS is currently reviewing options to address this structural imbalance. Among the
options being reviewed are reductions in expenditure commitments, as well as new
revenue sources. DAS intends to present a report outlining potential options designed to
resolve this structural imbalance, to the County Executive and Board of Supervisors
sometime in the near future for their deliberation over the extent and timing of corrective
actions.

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
INTER-OFFICE COMMUNICATION

Supervisor James G. White, Chairman, Committee on Transportation, Public
Works and Transit

FROM:

Pamela Bryan, Capital Finance Manager, Department of Administrative Services

SUBJECT:

INFORMATIONAL REPORT ON THE PROJECT STATUS OF
GUARANTEED ENERGY SAVINGS PERFORMANCE CONTRACTING

Issue
Pursuant to the referral from the Committee on Transportation and Public Works dated February
14, 2007, this report provides an update summarizing work activity, as well as proposed savings
and cost requirements, related to Guaranteed Energy Savings Performance Contracting.
Background
On August 1, 2004, the County Board adopted a resolution (File No. 04-267) directing the
preparation of an RFP/RFQ to select a Guaranteed Energy Savings Performance Contract
(GESPC) vendor for the purpose of realizing cost effective energy savings through repair and
enhancement of building infrastructure. The intended GESPC agreement is to be self-funding,
meaning all project costs are offset by financial benefits realized from energy savings.
In August 2006, the Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW) requested and
received approval to award and execute a Technical Energy Audit & Project Development
Contract (TEA&PD) with three separate energy service companies (ESCOs): Honeywell,
Johnson Controls, and Ameresco. The TEA&PD work provided by each energy service
company represents a comprehensive energy and water use audit for County facilities whereby
the energy service company provides an assessment of potential energy savings to be realized
through facility upgrades. The project development component of the TEA&PD agreement
expresses technical energy audit findings in terms of a project scope recommended for inclusion
in an executed Guaranteed Energy Savings Performance Contract (GESPC).
The combined technical energy audits assessed more than 2.5 million square feet of Milwaukee
County facility space for GESPC consideration. In recent months, the all energy service
companies have completed the technical energy audit and provided GESPC project team
members both a preliminary and final proposal for GESPC program development. This report
outlines the energy conservation measures (ECMs) associated with each final GESPC proposal
and provides a summary of estimated costs and projected energy savings as claimed by the
respective ESCO. The ongoing evaluation process associated with each GESPC proposal also is
highlighted.

Review of Final Technical Energy Audit for GESPC Consideration
In recent weeks, project teams have reviewed contractor presentations concerning final energy
audit assessments and related project development recommendations for GESPC consideration.
Given the extensive breadth and technical complexity of the project work proposed, the ongoing
review process has been time consuming proven complicated and will continues to require
substantial demands of County resources. The various GESPC project teams conducting an
evaluation of GESPC project proposals include the following personnel:
Honeywell: Greg High (AE&E), Steve Dragosz (AE&E), Tom Voigt (AE&E), Pam Bryant
(DAS), Chad Lillethun (DAS), John Schapekahm (Corp. Counsel), Jack Takerian (Facilities),
Dave Schaning (Facilities), Richard Berndt (Facilities), John Berget (Focus on Energy), Nathan
Nygard (Focus on Energy)
Ameresco: Greg High (AE&E), Steve Dragosz (AE&E), Tom Voight (AE&E), Pam Bryant
(DAS), Chad Lillethun (DAS), John Schapekahm (Corp. Counsel), Chuck Ward (Parks), Gene
Andrzejak (Parks), Grady Gardner (DHHS), Jim Tietjen (DHHS), John Berget (Focus on
Energy), Nathan Nygaard (Focus on Energy)
Johnson Controls: Greg High (AE&E), Steve Dragosz (AE&E), Tom Voigt (AE&E), Pam
Bryant (DAS), Chad Lillethun (DAS), John Schapekahm (Corp. Counsel), Karl Hackbarth (Zoo),
John Berget (WI Focus on Energy), and Nathan Nygard (WI Focus on Energy)
Project Criteria
As stated in the RFP, final project proposals for GESPC evaluation must conform to uniform
project criteria. The criteria provide that each energy savings company identify a scope of work
and cash flow which:
1) Constitutes a maximum cash outlay of $2 million dollars per GESPC agreement., and
limits all cost savings estimates to energy savings only (i.e. excludes labor, repair,
maintenance, avoided future capital replacement, or other non-energy savings);
2) Is self-funding and paid for over a ten-year period (i.e. includes cost of implementation,
capitalized interest during construction, fees associated with financing, principal and
interest payments over the term, as well as performance measurement and verification);
3) Allows for cost savings estimates to include energy savings only (i.e. excludes labor,
repair, maintenance, avoided future capital replacement, or other non-energy savings).
Final project recommendations for GESPC consideration are to be based on a project structure
conforming to the above criteria while addressing priority-based project elements as identified by
the project team. The following summarizes each final GESPC proposal as provided by the
respective energy service company.
Honeywell GESPC: County Courthouse and Criminal Justice Facility
Through GESPC project team discussions, a lighting upgrade proposal for the Courthouse
Building and Criminal Justice Facility was determined the preferred project option for GESPC

CArcher_Email3012371

GESPC Update

04/25/07

consideration. The project consists of converting existing T12 fixtures, both magnetic and
electronically ballasted, to high performance 28-watt T8 lamps and high efficiency electronic
ballasts, either through retrofit or the replacement of fixtures.
For the Courthouse Building, the TEA&PD identified 8,835 fixtures for upgrade out of 9,134
fixtures existing. The Honeywell project pro forma estimates a savings of 1,231,055 kilowatthours (kWh) annually, providing an estimated $104,066 annual reduction in electricity costs.
For the Criminal Justice Facility, the TEA&PD identified 6,006 fixtures for upgrade out of 6,006
fixtures existing. Honeywell estimates a savings of 1,542,487 kWh annually, providing an
estimated $94,435 annual reduction in electricity costs for the facility. The estimated total annual
energy savings for the two facilities is $198,501.
The total estimated project cost covering the implementation of lighting upgrades all energy
conservation measures is $1,541,615. Additionally, proposed project financing includes an
interest rate of 4.25% over a ten-year period, resulting in a combined total project and finance
cost of $1,999,999. Over the ten-year project life, Honeywell estimates project benefits to
exceed total project costs by $230,480.
The Honeywell guaranteed savings structure provides a monetary-based savings guarantee of
$175,127 in realized energy savings per year. It should be noted that this performance guarantee
is unique among the three proposals. Other guaranteed savings proposals, as reported below,
limit their guarantee to reduced energy consumption. Also, Honeywell’s guaranteed savings
reflect only a partial guarantee of the total $198,501 energy savings it projects.
For performance monitoring and verification purposes, the verification process requires an
agreed upon County energy consumption baseline for performance measurement. Preimplementation performance measures will define baseline energy use. The difference between
baseline and post-implementation measurements serve to evaluate realized energy savings.
Ameresco GESPC: Parks, Recreation and Culture and Health and Human Services
The final Ameresco proposal for GESPC consideration recommends an energy savings approach
to include various lighting, mechanical and environmental control system upgrades. Identified
energy conservation measures are recommended for implementation throughout nine buildings
under the Department of Parks, Recreation, and Culture, as well as the Department of Health and
Human Services’ primary facility, the Marcia P. Coggs Human Services Center. See Addendum
for the energy conservation measure (ECM) detail recommended by facility.
The Ameresco project pro forma estimates a $162,519 annual savings for all energy conservation
measures associated with Parks buildings and places annual estimated savings for the Coggs
Center at $101,114. Ameresco estimates total annual energy savings for the two facilities at
$263,633.
The total project cost covering the implementation of all energy conservation measures is
$1,585,868. Additionally, proposed lease financing includes a lease/interest rate of 4.00% over a
ten-year period, resulting in a combined total project and finance cost of $1,928,099. Over the

CArcher_Email3012372

GESPC Update
Page 4

04/25/07

ten-year project life, Ameresco estimates project benefits to exceed total project costs by
$1,023,335.
The structure of the Ameresco guaranteed energy savings would be realizedcontracted through in
terms of reduced energy consumption. (i.e. by the reduced level of energy consumed, not by
dollars spent on utilities). Although this method equates to some amount of energy dollars
saved, it also eliminates utility price risk for the ESCO.
Similar to the Honeywell model, the performance monitoring and verification process requires a
County energy consumption baseline for performance measurement. Pre-implementation
performance measures will define baseline energy use. The difference between baseline and postimplementation measurements serve to evaluate realized energy savings.
Johnson Controls GESPC: Milwaukee County Zoo
The final Johnson Controls proposal for GESPC consideration recommends an energy savings
approach to water use and plumbing system upgrades, as well as various lighting, mechanical and
environmental control enhancements. Identified energy conservation measures are recommended
for implementation throughout 28 buildings at the Milwaukee County Zoo. See Addendum for
the energy conservation measure (ECM) detail recommended by facility.
The Johnson Controls project pro forma estimates energy savings by conservation measure to
annually include: Lighting at $36,186, Mechanical Systems at $26,000, Controls Enhancements
at $76,000, and Water Use savings at $57,000. Johnson Controls estimates a total of more than
$195,000 in annual energy savings to be realized through implementation of its recommended
conservation measures.
The total project cost covering the implementation of all energy conservation measures is
$1,432,989. Additionally, proposed lease financing includes a lease/interest rate of 3.90% over a
ten-year period, resulting in a combined total project and finance cost of $1,757,960. Over the
ten-year project life, Johnson Controls estimates the value of project benefits to exceed total
project costs by $267,767.
Similar to the Ameresco guaranteed savings model, Johnson Controls guarantees its energy
savings based on energy consumption. Johnson Controls also provides a similar approach to its
measurement and verification process.
Required Due Diligence
The size and complexity of the three GESPC proposals has increased the necessary due diligence
requirement for project evaluation. It is important to note that nearly all stated energy savings
represent projections provided to the County by the energy service companies for project
consideration. No energy service company intends to contract with the County in terms that
ensure the realization of these projections. With nearly $6 million in project work representing a
ten-year financial commitment, it is important that each proposal is methodically analyzed to
better understand project risk factors and instill confidence that the benefits associated with
reductions in energy use will in fact exceed each project’s liability.

CArcher_Email3012373

GESPC Update

The following represents the minimum due diligence requirement necessary to analyze each
proposal and provide a project recommendation. Noted are departmental areas responsible for
conducting the analysis.
1)
2)
3)
4)

Verify accuracy of ESCO engineering calculations (AE&E);
Analyze costs of post-implementation labor and maintenance commitment (Facilities);
Provide cost-benefit analysis of project financing options (DAS);
Work with various ESCOs and other energy resources to evaluate assumptions supporting
the cash flow pro forma (DAS);
5) Provide cost-benefit analysis of cash flow pro forma and ESCO energy savings guarantee
(DAS/AE&E).

This due diligence work will continue to demand a substantial commitment of County resources.
In light of other pressing issues facing the DAS Capital Finance team – including upcoming
meetings with bond rating agencies and other tasks related to the May 17 G.O. bond sale,
disposition of final 2006 carryovers and year-end close activity, preparation for potential issuance
of Pension Obligation Bonds, preparation of an Airport Revenue Bond issuance in the fall of
2007, and preparation of the 2008 Capital Improvements Budget – it will be extremely difficult
for DAS to responsibly complete this analysis for the June committee cycle. DAS is committed
to attempting to meet that deadline and would welcome any suggestions for adding staff capacity
to this project and/or prioritizing project elements to ensure that the expectations of policymakers
are achieved.

repair, maintenance, avoided future capital replacement, or other non-energy savings).
Final project recommendations for GESPC consideration are to be based on a project structure
conforming to the above criteria while addressing priority-based project elements as identified by
the project team. The following summarizes each final GESPC proposal as provided by the
respective energy service company.
Honeywell GESPC: County Courthouse and Criminal Justice Facility
Through GESPC project team discussions, a lighting upgrade proposal for the Courthouse
Building and Criminal Justice Facility was determined the preferred project option for GESPC

consideration. The project consists of converting existing T12 fixtures, both magnetic and
electronically ballasted, to high performance 28-watt T8 lamps and high efficiency electronic
ballasts, either through retrofit or the replacement of fixtures.
For the Courthouse Building, the TEA&PD identified 8,835 fixtures for upgrade out of 9,134
fixtures existing. The Honeywell project pro forma estimates a savings of 1,231,055 kilowatthours (kWh) annually, providing an estimated $104,066 annual reduction in electricity costs.
For the Criminal Justice Facility, the TEA&PD identified 6,006 fixtures for upgrade out of 6,006
fixtures existing. Honeywell estimates a savings of 1,542,487 kWh annually, providing an
estimated $94,435 annual reduction in electricity costs for the facility. The estimated total annual
energy savings for the two facilities is $198,501.
The total estimated project cost covering the implementation of lighting upgrades all energy
conservation measures is $1,541,615. Additionally, proposed project financing includes an
interest rate of 4.25% over a ten-year period, resulting in a combined total project and finance
cost of $1,999,999. Over the ten-year project life, Honeywell estimates project benefits to
exceed total project costs by $230,480.
The Honeywell guaranteed savings structure provides a monetary-based savings guarantee of
$175,127 in realized energy savings per year. It should be noted that this performance guarantee
is unique among the three proposals. Other guaranteed savings proposals, as reported below,
limit their guarantee to reduced energy consumption. Also, Honeywell’s guaranteed savings
reflect only a partial guarantee of the total $198,501 energy savings it projects.
For performance monitoring and verification purposes, the verification process requires an
agreed upon County energy consumption baseline for performance measurement. Preimplementation performance measures will define baseline energy use. The difference between
baseline and post-implementation measurements serve to evaluate realized energy savings.
Ameresco GESPC: Parks, Recreation and Culture and Health and Human Services
The final Ameresco proposal for GESPC consideration recommends an energy savings approach
to include various lighting, mechanical and environmental control system upgrades. Identified
energy conservation measures are recommended for implementation throughout nine buildings
under the Department of Parks, Recreation, and Culture, as well as the Department of Health and
Human Services’ primary facility, the Marcia P. Coggs Human Services Center. See Addendum
for the energy conservation measure (ECM) detail recommended by facility.
The Ameresco project pro forma estimates a $162,519 annual savings for all energy conservation
measures associated with Parks buildings and places annual estimated savings for the Coggs
Center at $101,114. Ameresco estimates total annual energy savings for the two facilities at
$263,633.
The total project cost covering the implementation of all energy conservation measures is
$1,585,868. Additionally, proposed lease financing includes a lease/interest rate of 4.00% over a
ten-year period, resulting in a combined total project and finance cost of $1,928,099. Over the

GESPC Update
Page 4

04/25/07

ten-year project life, Ameresco estimates project benefits to exceed total project costs by
$1,023,335.
The structure of the Ameresco guaranteed energy savings would be realizedcontracted through in
terms of reduced energy consumption. (i.e. by the reduced level of energy consumed, not by
dollars spent on utilities). Although this method equates to some amount of energy dollars
saved, it also eliminates utility price risk for the ESCO.
Similar to the Honeywell model, the performance monitoring and verification process requires a
County energy consumption baseline for performance measurement. Pre-implementation
performance measures will define baseline energy use. The difference between baseline and postimplementation measurements serve to evaluate realized energy savings.
Johnson Controls GESPC: Milwaukee County Zoo
The final Johnson Controls proposal for GESPC consideration recommends an energy savings
approach to water use and plumbing system upgrades, as well as various lighting, mechanical and
environmental control enhancements. Identified energy conservation measures are recommended
for implementation throughout 28 buildings at the Milwaukee County Zoo. See Addendum for
the energy conservation measure (ECM) detail recommended by facility.
The Johnson Controls project pro forma estimates energy savings by conservation measure to
annually include: Lighting at $36,186, Mechanical Systems at $26,000, Controls Enhancements
at $76,000, and Water Use savings at $57,000. Johnson Controls estimates a total of more than
$195,000 in annual energy savings to be realized through implementation of its recommended
conservation measures.
The total project cost covering the implementation of all energy conservation measures is
$1,432,989. Additionally, proposed lease financing includes a lease/interest rate of 3.90% over a
ten-year period, resulting in a combined total project and finance cost of $1,757,960. Over the
ten-year project life, Johnson Controls estimates the value of project benefits to exceed total
project costs by $267,767.
Similar to the Ameresco guaranteed savings model, Johnson Controls guarantees its energy
savings based on energy consumption. Johnson Controls also provides a similar approach to its
measurement and verification process.
Required Due Diligence
The size and complexity of the three GESPC proposals has increased the necessary due diligence
requirement for project evaluation. It is important to note that nearly all stated energy savings
represent projections provided to the County by the energy service companies for project
consideration. No energy service company intends to contract with the County in terms that
ensure the realization of these projections. With nearly $6 million in project work representing a
ten-year financial commitment, it is important that each proposal is methodically analyzed to
better understand project risk factors and instill confidence that the benefits associated with
reductions in energy use will in fact exceed each project’s liability.

The following represents the minimum due diligence requirement necessary to analyze each
proposal and provide a project recommendation. Noted are departmental areas responsible for
conducting the analysis.
1)
2)
3)
4)

Verify accuracy of ESCO engineering calculations (AE&E);
Analyze costs of post-implementation labor and maintenance commitment (Facilities);
Provide cost-benefit analysis of project financing options (DAS);
Work with various ESCOs and other energy resources to evaluate assumptions supporting
the cash flow pro forma (DAS);
5) Provide cost-benefit analysis of cash flow pro forma and ESCO energy savings guarantee
(DAS/AE&E).

This due diligence work will continue to demand a substantial commitment of County resources.
In light of other pressing issues facing the DAS Capital Finance team – including upcoming
meetings with bond rating agencies and other tasks related to the May 17 G.O. bond sale,
disposition of final 2006 carryovers and year-end close activity, preparation for potential issuance
of Pension Obligation Bonds, preparation of an Airport Revenue Bond issuance in the fall of
2007, and preparation of the 2008 Capital Improvements Budget – it will be extremely difficult
for DAS to responsibly complete this analysis for the June committee cycle. DAS is committed
to attempting to meet that deadline and would welcome any suggestions for adding staff capacity
to this project and/or prioritizing project elements to ensure that the expectations of policymakers
are achieved.

Attached are the 5-year projections. Note the projections are only the green
portion of the spreadsheet under the expenditure tab. Ignore the rest of
sheet. PLEASE DO NOT CHANGE ANY OF THESE NUMBERS WITHOUT TELLING ME SINCE THIS
SHEETS FEEDS INTO OTHER NON-LINKED SHEETS.

We should meet to review this and discuss how we want to use this data and who
we want to share it with.

Please review. Pam the red cells require more discussion and explanation.
Also as we discussed yesterday, we need an estimate for revenue bond proceeds
in 2012 since having 0 in there skews the bottom line gap figures. The other
two red cells look appear out of line with the trends. Please look at these
and add notes if necessary.

2006 Fiscal Year
The 2006 third quarter report for Milwaukee County presented in December 2006
projected an ending deficit of $1,500,000.
Subsequently, the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) updated this projection
with information available after the first report had been submitted. This updated report
presented in March 2007 described an improvement in the 2006 year-end financial
position and projected a surplus of approximately $2,000,000. The change in financial
position from the initial third quarter report is the result of a decrease in the projected
deficit for Employee Fringe Benefits as well as surpluses in Earnings on Investments and
the Department on Aging-Care Maintenance Organization (CMO).
DAS is still in the process of completing its analysis for the 2006 closing including:
departmental results, balance sheet accounts, and carryovers. The final results will not be
known until June 2007.
2007 Fiscal YearConcerns
Early estimates for 2006 indicate projected shortfalls in the areas of juvenile corrections
($1.9 million), Housing and Economic Development ($980,000), mental health services
($1.7 million) and sales tax collections ($1.9 million). However, these projected
shortfalls will be offset by the availability of approximately $3.1 million in contingency
funds budgeted in 2007 for unanticipated resource needs, the unexpected increase in
surplus funds in the County’s Care Management Organization ($2.7 million) and positive
employee health care trends that are expected to produce higher than budgeted savings.
suggest the County will operate with a deficit of $8.9 million unless corrective action is
taken over the course of the year. The 2006 projected deficit is based on excess
expenditures and revenue shortfalls in departments during 2005 that were not known until
after the 2006 Budget was adopted. Budgets that are estimated to deficit in 2006 are
Parks ($2.7 million), Courts ($1.5 million), House of Corrections ($650,000), and
Appropriation for Contingencies ($4.0 million).
The projected $2.7 million deficit in the Parks Department 2006 budget is the result of
the preliminary final results for the department in 2005, which will require an adjustment
to the 2006 revenue budget. DAS provided a 2006 corrective action plan for the Parks
Department, along with the disclosure of the 2005 deficit, to the Board of Supervisors in
January 2006. The Board of Supervisors has deferred action on a 2006 corrective action
plan for the Parks Department until 2005 final results are known. In the interim, DAS
has taken an aggressive stance to manage the Parks 2006 budget and is engaged, on a
weekly basis, to assure appropriate management of Parks’ finances. However, absent the
implementation of a corrective action plan the Parks Department will likely generate an
operating deficit for 2006.
Additional projected shortfalls for 2006 are the result of revenues and savings not being
realized at the 2006 budgeted levels in Courts and House of Correction. The 2006 Courts
budget included “salary savings” of $1 million that must be achieved through holding
positions vacant. This target is unlikely to be realized, as the most recent projection based
on payroll data indicates a projected deficit of $1.5 million in salaries. The 2006 House
of Correction budget is based on the closure of 6 of the dormitories and continuation of
housing State prisoners. Current population needs for 2006 have the HOC currently

CArcher_Email3012391

operating with 5 dormitories closed. This development, if sustained, results in a deficit of
$400,000 (annual cost of operating a dormitory). Additionally, the State has informed the
County that it will cancel its contract for housing State prisoners. No date has been
determined for the termination of this contract. If the agreement is terminated in 2006, the
House of Correction could lose net revenues of $250,000, raising the total the projected
for 2006 to $650,000.
The County’s budgeted contingency fund for 2006 included $10.2 million in health
insurance related revenues based on reduced employer premiums, the implementation of
co-payments and prescription drug pricing structures, particularly for retirees, and
increased employee contributions that will go into effect on July 1, 2006. In January
2006 an estimate, based on current enrollment data, updated projected revenues to $6.2
million, which is $4.0 million lower than originally budgeted. The budget assumed
10,278 employees would enroll in the new County health care plan in 2006: 4,504 active
employees and 5,744 retirees. Based on preliminary data, the actual enrollment was
10,581 participants: 4,566 active employees and 6,015 retirees or 303 additional
participants.
The Department of Administrative Services is in the process of assessing the County’s
overall fiscal situation and will be developing a corrective action plan for addressing the
projected deficit for 2006 that will be presented to the Board of Supervisors in early
2006. The County’s ability to achieve a balanced operating budget in 2006 will depend
on its success in adopting and implementing a corrective action plan, as well as its ability
to achieve currently projected revenues and control other budgeted expenditures.
Future Fiscal OutlookConcerns
As is the case with most local governments, employee compensation and fringe benefits
continue to present budget challenges for Milwaukee County. However, during the last
year the County has reached labor settlements with three of its eight unions including the
County’s largest union (AFSCME) which represents almost 80% of the represented staff
in Milwaukee County. During labor negotiations the County was able to secure modest
pay increases for 2007 and 2008, employee health care concessions and pension
enhancement roll-backs.
Recent labor negotiations concluded with wage settlements of 1% effective November
2007, 1% effective April 2008, 1% effective June 2008 and 1% effective October 2008.
The settled labor contracts also included increased health insurance co-payments and
deductibles and the restructuring of health insurance premiums to encourage steerage to
lower cost health plans resulting in projected health care savings of $2.5 million in 2007
and $3.0 million in 2008. Finally, the labor agreements included provisions to eliminate
the Rule of 75 for all new hires, eliminate the pension backdrop payment for all new hires
and limit the payout of sick leave upon retirement from 100% to a maximum of 25% for
all future sick leave earned (except for Deputy Sheriffs).
In addition to recent labor settlements, the County has moved aggressively to control the
growth in employee health care costs thorough other avenues. The County’s 2007
Budget included authorization to create a new Employee Benefits Division that will focus
solely on managing and identifying cost-containment opportunities in the areas of

CArcher_Email3012392

employee health care, ------- and _______. The Division has secured the services of a
benefits advisory consulting firm to assist with the creation, design and staffing of the
new division and assist with the development of data models using on recently acquired
employee health care cost and utilization databases. Further, One one of the first
directivesion given to the new Division is the development and implementation of an
Employee Wellness Program that will target services and assistance to high-end health
care users in an effort to further contain costs and improve overall employee health and
productivity. The Employee Wellness Program will be implemented in January 2008.
Finally, in mid-2006 the County converted from a fully-insured health plan to selfinsured. Under the self-insured model the County will gain access to employee health
cost and utilization data not previously available. The availablility of this data will allow
the County to develop data-driven cost containment initiatives targeted at cost centers and
utilization areas yielding the greatest return. Prior to converting to self-insured, the
County faced health care cost increases of 17%-18% per year for the years 2007, 2008
and 2009. Moving to self-insured will result in estimated savings of $18.7 million from
2007-2009 as the rate of increase is expected to decrease to the range of 13%-15% per
year.
It should be noted that the above modifications to employee health care became effective
for non-represented staff, selected unions and County retirees early in 2006, while the
County’s largest union did not settle until late 2006 early in 2007. The combined impact
of the above changes is evidenced by a material decrease in the rate of health care cost
growth during 2006 when the County saw a 3% increase vs the projected 17% increase in
employee health care costs. The county’s projection for 2007 has been adjusted to reflect
an expected increase of 9% compared to the earlier 13%-15% increase.
While the County has made great strides over the last year in securing employee
concessions in the area of employee health care and the roll-back of the 2001 pension
enhancements, employee compensation and fringe benefits will continue to be a cost
pressure in the 2008 budget and beyond.

In an attempt to understand the near-term and long-term challenges facing the County,
DAS has conducted a careful review of the County’s fiscal situation and has prepared a
preliminary five-year fiscal projection of County budgets from 2007 to 2011. These are
projections based on current information and are subject to revision. This review has
identified a structural problem resulting from expenditure commitments that exceed
received and earned revenues over the five years. The table below illustrates the

CArcher_Email3012393

projected annual gaps, in millions of current dollars, which the County may be facing
over these five years.
Milwaukee County Five-year Preliminary Projection
2007
2008
2009
2010
2011
Projection Projection Projection Projection Projection
($74.2)
($38.9)
($36.4)

Annual Gap (Projected Expenditures and Revenues)
Annual Gap w/Wage Increases
($82.2)
($48.0)
($46.0)
($44.7)
($48.3)

Within the next five years (2007-2011) expenditures, driven by employee benefits (health
insurance, pension contributions and OPEB), are projected to escalate at a rate that
exceeds revenue growth. (Current preliminary estimates for future health insurance,
pension contributions and OPEB liabilities do not incorporate actuarial analyses, which
are still to be completed.) Although employee benefit cost pressures are not unique to
Milwaukee County government, the consequences for the County, without significant
corrective action, are potentially significant. Over this same period revenues, with the
exception of property taxes and Federal Transportation Revenue, are anticipated to
remain relatively flat. Increases to the property tax levy reflect the maximum allowable
levy based on the State cap imposed in 2005. In 2005, legislation was approved that
created another cap on property tax levy for the years 2005 to 2007. For purposes of the
forecasting analysis, DAS assumed that the cap would remain in place for the years 2007
to 2011. Federal Transportation Revenue is anticipated to decline over the forecast
period.
Healthcare costs are projected to increase by 17 percent per year over the next five years.
The annual projected increases range from $12 million in 2007 to $37 million in 2011.
No other budget category is expected to increase as dramatically as employee health
insurance. The County’s budgeted pension contribution is $27.4 million in 2006, which
reflects funding for normal costs. An actuarial review in October 2005 by Milliman, Inc.,
the actuary for the County’s Employee Retirement System, stated that the
“recommended” future pension contribution could be $50 million or more. The projected
contribution for 2007 is $50 million or a $23 million increase over the 2006 budget based
on Milliman’s October 2005 estimate. This would follow a pension funding plan
designed to improve the funding position of the County’s Employee Retirement System
from its current funded level of 79% to a funded level of 100% at the end of the ERS’s
adopted funding plan, approximately 30 years. Projected future contribution increases
are projected to increase $3 million a year for each remaining year of the five-year
period, e.g., $53 million in 2008, and $56 million in 2009. In early 2006, the County
Executive will convene an advisory group to recommend proposals for addressing the
County’s future pension funding, including a possible move to a defined contribution
funding mechanism. See “Milwaukee County Retirement System” section for more
detailed information.
In addition to the increased pension contribution, there is an anticipated expenditure
increase of $29 million to fund, in accordance with GASB 45, the initial year of OPEB
liabilities for County proprietary funds that receive property tax levy.

CArcher_Email3012394

The combination of the foregoing anticipated expense increases, current revenue
assumptions and present statutorily imposed tax caps would result in a significant excess
of expenditures over revenues in 2007, and in each succeeding year for the period
examined. If the County were unable to implement adequate corrective actions in a
timely manner, increasing gaps between revenues and expenditures would risk significant
adverse consequences for the County, its budgeting, its operations and, potentially, its
ability to meet its operating obligations as they become due.
Resolving this structural imbalance will require Milwaukee County to review its current
expenditure commitments, revenue streams and the cost pressures outlined above. The
County will then need to decide whether it will reduce expenditure commitments to
accommodate the projected costs of health benefits, pension contributions and OPEB or
seek and implement new revenue sources. This will necessitate a reevaluation by the
County of its core functions, and the funding assumptions used to support them.
DAS is currently reviewing options to address this structural imbalance. Among the
options being reviewed are reductions in expenditure commitments, as well as new
revenue sources. DAS intends to present a report outlining potential options designed to
resolve this structural imbalance, to the County Executive and Board of Supervisors
sometime in the near future for their deliberation over the extent and timing of corrective
actions.

Re: format of board reports
Thursday, April 26, 2007 8:47:18 AM

Below is fine with me.

I was not suggesting that supervisors not sign the report. It is drafted as
memo from the supervisor. Usually with memos the sender (supervisor) signs up
on the From: section. It has always seemed reducntant to me to initial at the
top and sign it again at the bottom. In any event, my goal is to get the
analysts name and phone number on there for the reasons I stated. I would
also like to see analysts at the table more when their work is being
presented. They need to take ownership of their work and get the recognition
at the same time. This is very important principle to me. I made the
commitment to them when I arrived that I would ensure they were more involved
and would get credit for their work. We can dicuss later.

Hi Cindy. I have no problem with putting the name and phone number of the
analyst who prepared the report at the bottom as you have suggested. However,
I do recommend that the report still be signed by the individual who is
officially submitting it. It is very important to supervisors that there be
accountability from people at the very top for recommendations and fiscal
information submitted to them. The fact that a department/division head or
someone in a similar position of accountability has signed a report is
important to them.

Unless dictated otherwise somewhere, in the future I would like the analysts
name and phone at the end of each report. If sent by a manager, the manager
can initial the memo in the "From" section as is standard proceedure on memos.
I am asking that we do this so analyst receive credit and recognition for
their work and so that if folks have questions they can contact the anlayst
easily by listing the name and phone number at the bottom of the report.

See the attached for format and please inform your staff of this change.

You had asked for additional bullet points for the presentation. You may not
recall, but I mentioned yesterday that I gave the changes to Kat and we were
going to work on adding items in the morning. Here are the items that I was
suggesting that we add.
Tax supported debt service costs shall not exceed actual sales tax revenues
Direct debt shall not exceed shall not exceed 1.5 percent of equalized value
Financing terms shall not exceed 16 years
Average principal maturities shall not exceed 10 years

These items you could mention.
Net present value savings for proposed advance refunding should total a minium
of 3 percent to 5 percent of refunded principal
Bond insurance will be used when it provides a net economic benefit

We are not meeting the other policies or that have been previously mentioned.

As you know, the pension obligation bond provision was removed from the
Governor's budget. Our IGR staff is working to ensure that a stand alone bill
gets introduced and acted upon. To that end, I've been asked by Roy to attend
a meeting with Senator Wirch next Wednesday, May 2nd, at 10:00 a.m. to discuss
the matter. Senator Wirch is the Chairman of the Joint Survey Committee on
Retirement Systems, the committee expected to review the legislation.
Since I'm not an expert in all of the details of the bill, it might be good if
someone from DAS (or PFM?) attend with me so that we can address any questions
the Senator may have. We have bond rating meetings that afternoon, but I
expect to be back from Madison before 1:00 p.m.
Let me know if you would like to attend or have suggestions on who should.
Thanks.

2006 Fiscal Year
The 2006 third quarter report for Milwaukee County presented in December 2006
projected an ending deficit of $1,500,000.
Subsequently, the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) updated this projection
with information available after the first report had been submitted. This updated report
presented in March 2007 described an improvement in the 2006 year-end financial
position and projected a surplus of approximately $2,000,000. The change in financial
position from the initial third quarter report is the result of a decrease in the projected
deficit for Employee Fringe Benefits as well as surpluses in Earnings on Investments and
the Department on Aging-Care Maintenance Organization (CMO).
DAS is still in the process of completing its analysis for the 2006 closing including:
departmental results, balance sheet accounts, and carryovers. The final results will not be
known until June 2007.
2007 Fiscal YearConcerns
Early estimates for 2006 indicate projected shortfalls in the areas of juvenile corrections
($1.9 million), Housing and Economic Development ($980,000), mental health services
($1.7 million) and sales tax collections ($1.9 million). However, these projected
shortfalls will be offset by the availability of approximately $3.1 million in contingency
funds budgeted in 2007 for unanticipated resource needs, the unexpected increase in
surplus funds in the County’s Care Management Organization ($2.7 million) and positive
employee health care trends that are expected to produce higher than budgeted savings.
suggest the County will operate with a deficit of $8.9 million unless corrective action is
taken over the course of the year. The 2006 projected deficit is based on excess
expenditures and revenue shortfalls in departments during 2005 that were not known until
after the 2006 Budget was adopted. Budgets that are estimated to deficit in 2006 are
Parks ($2.7 million), Courts ($1.5 million), House of Corrections ($650,000), and
Appropriation for Contingencies ($4.0 million).
The projected $2.7 million deficit in the Parks Department 2006 budget is the result of
the preliminary final results for the department in 2005, which will require an adjustment
to the 2006 revenue budget. DAS provided a 2006 corrective action plan for the Parks
Department, along with the disclosure of the 2005 deficit, to the Board of Supervisors in
January 2006. The Board of Supervisors has deferred action on a 2006 corrective action
plan for the Parks Department until 2005 final results are known. In the interim, DAS
has taken an aggressive stance to manage the Parks 2006 budget and is engaged, on a
weekly basis, to assure appropriate management of Parks’ finances. However, absent the
implementation of a corrective action plan the Parks Department will likely generate an
operating deficit for 2006.

determined for the termination of this contract. If the agreement is terminated in 2006, the
House of Correction could lose net revenues of $250,000, raising the total the projected
for 2006 to $650,000.

While the County has made great strides over the last year in securing employee
concessions in the area of employee health care and the roll-back of the 2001 pension
enhancements, employee compensation and fringe benefits will continue to be a cost
pressure in the 2008 budget and beyond.
The County’s budgeted pension contribution is $27.4 million in 2006, which reflects
funding for normal costs. An actuarial review in October 2005 by Milliman, Inc., the
actuary for the County’s Employee Retirement System, stated that the “recommended”
future pension contribution could be $50 million or more. The projected contribution for
2007 is $50 million or a $23 million increase over the 2006 budget based on Milliman’s
October 2005 estimate. This would follow a pension funding plan designed to improve
the funding position of the County’s Employee Retirement System from its current
funded level of 79% to a funded level of 100% at the end of the ERS’s adopted funding
plan, approximately 30 years. Projected future contribution increases are projected to
increase $3 million a year for each remaining year of the five-year period, e.g., $53
million in 2008, and $56 million in 2009. In early 2006, the County Executive will
convene an advisory group to recommend proposals for addressing the County’s future

pension funding, including a possible move to a defined contribution funding mechanism.
See “Milwaukee County Retirement System” section for more detailed information.

In an attempt to understand the near-term and long-term challenges facing the County,
DAS has conducted a careful review of the County’s fiscal situation and has prepared a
preliminary five-year fiscal projection of County budgets from 2007 to 2011. These are
projections based on current information and are subject to revision. This review has
identified a structural problem resulting from expenditure commitments that exceed
received and earned revenues over the five years. The table below illustrates the
projected annual gaps, in millions of current dollars, which the County may be facing
over these five years.
Milwaukee County Five-year Preliminary Projection
2007

($48.3)

Within the next five years (2007-2011) expenditures, driven by employee benefits (health
insurance, pension contributions and OPEB), are projected to escalate at a rate that
exceeds revenue growth. (Current preliminary estimates for future health insurance,
pension contributions and OPEB liabilities do not incorporate actuarial analyses, which
are still to be completed.) Although employee benefit cost pressures are not unique to
Milwaukee County government, the consequences for the County, without significant
corrective action, are potentially significant. Over this same period revenues, with the
exception of property taxes and Federal Transportation Revenue, are anticipated to
remain relatively flat. Increases to the property tax levy reflect the maximum allowable
levy based on the State cap imposed in 2005. In 2005, legislation was approved that
created another cap on property tax levy for the years 2005 to 2007. For purposes of the
forecasting analysis, DAS assumed that the cap would remain in place for the years 2007
to 2011. Federal Transportation Revenue is anticipated to decline over the forecast
period.
Healthcare costs are projected to increase by 17 percent per year over the next five years.
The annual projected increases range from $12 million in 2007 to $37 million in 2011.
No other budget category is expected to increase as dramatically as employee health
insurance. The County’s budgeted pension contribution is $27.4 million in 2006, which
reflects funding for normal costs. An actuarial review in October 2005 by Milliman, Inc.,
the actuary for the County’s Employee Retirement System, stated that the
“recommended” future pension contribution could be $50 million or more. The projected
contribution for 2007 is $50 million or a $23 million increase over the 2006 budget based
on Milliman’s October 2005 estimate. This would follow a pension funding plan

CArcher_Email3012406

designed to improve the funding position of the County’s Employee Retirement System
from its current funded level of 79% to a funded level of 100% at the end of the ERS’s
adopted funding plan, approximately 30 years. Projected future contribution increases
are projected to increase $3 million a year for each remaining year of the five-year
period, e.g., $53 million in 2008, and $56 million in 2009. In early 2006, the County
Executive will convene an advisory group to recommend proposals for addressing the
County’s future pension funding, including a possible move to a defined contribution
funding mechanism. See “Milwaukee County Retirement System” section for more
detailed information.
In addition to the increased pension contribution, there is an anticipated expenditure
increase of $29 million to fund, in accordance with GASB 45, the initial year of OPEB
liabilities for County proprietary funds that receive property tax levy.
The combination of the foregoing anticipated expense increases, current revenue
assumptions and present statutorily imposed tax caps would result in a significant excess
of expenditures over revenues in 2007, and in each succeeding year for the period
examined. If the County were unable to implement adequate corrective actions in a
timely manner, increasing gaps between revenues and expenditures would risk significant
adverse consequences for the County, its budgeting, its operations and, potentially, its
ability to meet its operating obligations as they become due.
Resolving this structural imbalance will require Milwaukee County to review its current
expenditure commitments, revenue streams and the cost pressures outlined above. The
County will then need to decide whether it will reduce expenditure commitments to
accommodate the projected costs of health benefits, pension contributions and OPEB or
seek and implement new revenue sources. This will necessitate a reevaluation by the
County of its core functions, and the funding assumptions used to support them.
DAS is currently reviewing options to address this structural imbalance. Among the
options being reviewed are reductions in expenditure commitments, as well as new
revenue sources. DAS intends to present a report outlining potential options designed to
resolve this structural imbalance, to the County Executive and Board of Supervisors
sometime in the near future for their deliberation over the extent and timing of corrective
actions.

To: ECP Study Committee Members -- Rick Ceschin, Bill Domina (designee Mary
Ann Grimes), Cindy Archer (or designee), Jertha Ramos-Colon, James Eggers, Greg
McKinstry, James Tate, Michael Bickerstaff
The Executive Compensation Plan, ECP, was implemented in 1982. It was designed
as a pay for performance compensation system to align with our job evaluation
methodology. Over the years, even though the purpose has remained in effect,
implementation of such a policy has eroded due to inability for the budget to
support a true performance system, matters of implementation and
classification. The ECP plan had been revised in 1998 and most recently in
2004.
I am forming this study group, with Rich Ceschin as my co-chair, to once again
examine the issues associated with ECP as it currently exists. It is not my
expectation that we will be able to necessarily ?fix? all problems associated
with ECP, but our initial examination may result in -An overview of ECP and whether it meets the needs of a millennium executive
workforce;
Reviewing the positions that remain in ECP;
     Identifying problems raised when positions are removed from ECP;
     Identifying the issues that arise with the convergence of FSLA and ECP;
     Recommendations for a more comprehensive approach to compensation for
executives and the non-represented employees;
A recommendation for any necessary changes in the ordinances.

We think we can do this review in a series of meetings (biweekly) over the next
two months. I will have my Assistant, Helen, call your offices and arrange a
time. We would like to have the first meeting on May 7-9 and will hold all
meetings in the Commission Room in DHR. Please let us know whether you are
available on either of these dates/times: May 7, 1-3:00, May 8, afternoon, or
May 9th, 10-11:30.
Each of you was invited because you bring a unique background, perspective and
CArcher_Email3012410

skill set to this ECP matter. As we progress, we may have to invite others to
attend for their particular expertise and contributions. I have attached PDF
copies of two critical documents that you should review prior to the first
meeting ? a memo dated 5/12/04 re: Proposed Executive Compensation Plan
Revisions and the resolution.
Thank you in advance for your willingness to serve on the study group. We will
notify you of the exact date and time of the first meeting.

2006 Fiscal Year
The 2006 third quarter report for Milwaukee County presented in December 2006
projected an ending deficit of $1,500,000.
Subsequently, the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) updated this projection
with information available after the first report had been submitted. This updated report
presented in March 2007 described an improvement in the 2006 year-end financial
position and projected a surplus of approximately $2,000,000. The change in financial
position from the initial third quarter report is the result of a decrease in the projected
deficit for Employee Fringe Benefits as well as surpluses in Earnings on Investments and
the Department on Aging-Care Maintenance Organization (CMO).
DAS is still in the process of completing its analysis for the 2006 closing including:
departmental results, balance sheet accounts, and carryovers. The final results will not be
known until June 2007.
2007 Fiscal YearConcerns
Early estimates for 2006 indicate projected shortfalls in the areas of juvenile corrections
($1.9 million), Housing and Economic Development ($980,000), mental health services
($1.7 million) and sales tax collections ($1.9 million). However, these projected
shortfalls will be offset by the availability of approximately $3.1 million in contingency
funds budgeted in 2007 for unanticipated resource needs, the unexpected increase in
surplus funds in the County’s Care Management Organization ($2.7 million) and positive
employee health care trends that are expected to produce higher than budgeted savings.
suggest the County will operate with a deficit of $8.9 million unless corrective action is
taken over the course of the year. The 2006 projected deficit is based on excess
expenditures and revenue shortfalls in departments during 2005 that were not known until
after the 2006 Budget was adopted. Budgets that are estimated to deficit in 2006 are
Parks ($2.7 million), Courts ($1.5 million), House of Corrections ($650,000), and
Appropriation for Contingencies ($4.0 million).
The projected $2.7 million deficit in the Parks Department 2006 budget is the result of
the preliminary final results for the department in 2005, which will require an adjustment
to the 2006 revenue budget. DAS provided a 2006 corrective action plan for the Parks
Department, along with the disclosure of the 2005 deficit, to the Board of Supervisors in
January 2006. The Board of Supervisors has deferred action on a 2006 corrective action
plan for the Parks Department until 2005 final results are known. In the interim, DAS
has taken an aggressive stance to manage the Parks 2006 budget and is engaged, on a
weekly basis, to assure appropriate management of Parks’ finances. However, absent the
implementation of a corrective action plan the Parks Department will likely generate an
operating deficit for 2006.
Additional projected shortfalls for 2006 are the result of revenues and savings not being
realized at the 2006 budgeted levels in Courts and House of Correction. The 2006 Courts
budget included “salary savings” of $1 million that must be achieved through holding
positions vacant. This target is unlikely to be realized, as the most recent projection based
on payroll data indicates a projected deficit of $1.5 million in salaries. The 2006 House
of Correction budget is based on the closure of 6 of the dormitories and continuation of
housing State prisoners. Current population needs for 2006 have the HOC currently

CArcher_Email3012469

operating with 5 dormitories closed. This development, if sustained, results in a deficit of
$400,000 (annual cost of operating a dormitory). Additionally, the State has informed the
County that it will cancel its contract for housing State prisoners. No date has been
determined for the termination of this contract. If the agreement is terminated in 2006, the
House of Correction could lose net revenues of $250,000, raising the total the projected
for 2006 to $650,000.
The County’s budgeted contingency fund for 2006 included $10.2 million in health
insurance related revenues based on reduced employer premiums, the implementation of
co-payments and prescription drug pricing structures, particularly for retirees, and
increased employee contributions that will go into effect on July 1, 2006. In January
2006 an estimate, based on current enrollment data, updated projected revenues to $6.2
million, which is $4.0 million lower than originally budgeted. The budget assumed
10,278 employees would enroll in the new County health care plan in 2006: 4,504 active
employees and 5,744 retirees. Based on preliminary data, the actual enrollment was
10,581 participants: 4,566 active employees and 6,015 retirees or 303 additional
participants.
The Department of Administrative Services is in the process of assessing the County’s
overall fiscal situation and will be developing a corrective action plan for addressing the
projected deficit for 2006 that will be presented to the Board of Supervisors in early
2006. The County’s ability to achieve a balanced operating budget in 2006 will depend
on its success in adopting and implementing a corrective action plan, as well as its ability
to achieve currently projected revenues and control other budgeted expenditures.
Future Fiscal OutlookConcerns
As is the case with most local governments, employee compensation and fringe benefits
continue to present budget challenges for Milwaukee County. However, during the last
year the County has reached labor settlements with three of its eight unions including the
County’s largest union (AFSCME) which represents almost 80% of the represented staff
in Milwaukee County. During labor negotiations the County was able to secure modest
pay increases for 2007 and 2008, employee health care concessions and pension
enhancement roll-backs.
Recent labor negotiations concluded with wage settlements of 1% effective November
2007, 1% effective April 2008, 1% effective June 2008 and 1% effective October 2008.
The settled labor contracts also included increased health insurance co-payments and
deductibles and the restructuring of health insurance premiums to encourage steerage to
lower cost health plans resulting in projected health care savings of $2.5 million in 2007
and $3.0 million in 2008. Finally, the labor agreements included provisions to eliminate
the Rule of 75 for all new hires, eliminate the pension backdrop payment for all new hires
and limit the payout of sick leave upon retirement from 100% to a maximum of 25% for
all future sick leave earned (except for Deputy Sheriffs).
In addition to recent labor settlements, the County has moved aggressively to control the
growth in employee health care costs thorough other avenues. The County’s 2007
Budget included authorization to create a new Employee Benefits Division that will focus
solely on managing and identifying cost-containment opportunities in the areas of

CArcher_Email3012470

employee health care, ------- and _______. The Division has secured the services of a
benefits advisory consulting firm to assist with the creation, design and staffing of the
new division and assist with the development of data models using on recently acquired
employee health care cost and utilization databases. Further, One one of the first
directivesion given to the new Division is the development and implementation of an
Employee Wellness Program that will target services and assistance to high-end health
care users in an effort to further contain costs and improve overall employee health and
productivity. The Employee Wellness Program will be implemented in January 2008.
Finally, in mid-2006 the County converted from a fully-insured health plan to selfinsured. Under the self-insured model the County will gain access to employee health
cost and utilization data not previously available. The availablility of this data will allow
the County to develop data-driven cost containment initiatives targeted at cost centers and
utilization areas yielding the greatest return. Prior to converting to self-insured, the
County faced health care cost increases of 17%-18% per year for the years 2007, 2008
and 2009. Moving to self-insured will result in estimated savings of $18.7 million from
2007-2009 as the rate of increase is expected to decrease to the range of 13%-15% per
year.
It should be noted that the above modifications to employee health care became effective
for non-represented staff, selected unions and County retirees early in 2006, while the
County’s largest union did not settle until late 2006 early in 2007. The combined impact
of the above changes is evidenced by a material decrease in the rate of health care cost
growth during 2006 when the County saw a 3% increase vs the projected 17% increase in
employee health care costs. The county’s projection for 2007 has been adjusted to reflect
an expected increase of 9% compared to the earlier 13%-15% increase.
While the County has made great strides over the last year in securing employee
concessions in the area of employee health care and the roll-back of the 2001 pension
enhancements, employee compensation and fringe benefits will continue to be a cost
pressure in the 2008 budget and beyond.

In an attempt to understand the near-term and long-term challenges facing the County,
DAS has conducted a careful review of the County’s fiscal situation and has prepared a
preliminary five-year fiscal projection of County budgets from 2007 to 2011. These are
projections based on current information and are subject to revision. This review has
identified a structural problem resulting from expenditure commitments that exceed
received and earned revenues over the five years. The table below illustrates the

CArcher_Email3012471

projected annual gaps, in millions of current dollars, which the County may be facing
over these five years.

Within the next five years (2007-2011) expenditures, driven by employee benefits (health
insurance, pension contributions and OPEB), are projected to escalate at a rate that
exceeds revenue growth. (Current preliminary estimates for future health insurance,
pension contributions and OPEB liabilities do not incorporate actuarial analyses, which
are still to be completed.) Although employee benefit cost pressures are not unique to
Milwaukee County government, the consequences for the County, without significant
corrective action, are potentially significant. Over this same period revenues, with the
exception of property taxes and Federal Transportation Revenue, are anticipated to
remain relatively flat. Increases to the property tax levy reflect the maximum allowable
levy based on the State cap imposed in 2005. In 2005, legislation was approved that
created another cap on property tax levy for the years 2005 to 2007. For purposes of the
forecasting analysis, DAS assumed that the cap would remain in place for the years 2007
to 2011. Federal Transportation Revenue is anticipated to decline over the forecast
period.
Healthcare costs are projected to increase by 17 percent per year over the next five years.
The annual projected increases range from $12 million in 2007 to $37 million in 2011.
No other budget category is expected to increase as dramatically as employee health
insurance. The County’s budgeted pension contribution is $27.4 million in 2006, which
reflects funding for normal costs. An actuarial review in October 2005 by Milliman, Inc.,
the actuary for the County’s Employee Retirement System, stated that the
“recommended” future pension contribution could be $50 million or more. The projected
contribution for 2007 is $50 million or a $23 million increase over the 2006 budget based
on Milliman’s October 2005 estimate. This would follow a pension funding plan
designed to improve the funding position of the County’s Employee Retirement System
from its current funded level of 79% to a funded level of 100% at the end of the ERS’s
adopted funding plan, approximately 30 years. Projected future contribution increases
are projected to increase $3 million a year for each remaining year of the five-year
period, e.g., $53 million in 2008, and $56 million in 2009. In early 2006, the County
Executive will convene an advisory group to recommend proposals for addressing the
County’s future pension funding, including a possible move to a defined contribution
funding mechanism. See “Milwaukee County Retirement System” section for more
detailed information.
In addition to the increased pension contribution, there is an anticipated expenditure
increase of $29 million to fund, in accordance with GASB 45, the initial year of OPEB
liabilities for County proprietary funds that receive property tax levy.

CArcher_Email3012472

The combination of the foregoing anticipated expense increases, current revenue
assumptions and present statutorily imposed tax caps would result in a significant excess
of expenditures over revenues in 2007, and in each succeeding year for the period
examined. If the County were unable to implement adequate corrective actions in a
timely manner, increasing gaps between revenues and expenditures would risk significant
adverse consequences for the County, its budgeting, its operations and, potentially, its
ability to meet its operating obligations as they become due.
Resolving this structural imbalance will require Milwaukee County to review its current
expenditure commitments, revenue streams and the cost pressures outlined above. The
County will then need to decide whether it will reduce expenditure commitments to
accommodate the projected costs of health benefits, pension contributions and OPEB or
seek and implement new revenue sources. This will necessitate a reevaluation by the
County of its core functions, and the funding assumptions used to support them.
DAS is currently reviewing options to address this structural imbalance. Among the
options being reviewed are reductions in expenditure commitments, as well as new
revenue sources. DAS intends to present a report outlining potential options designed to
resolve this structural imbalance, to the County Executive and Board of Supervisors
sometime in the near future for their deliberation over the extent and timing of corrective
actions.

George, I understand your concerns and would be happy to sit down with you. I
need to finish up on our prep for the rating agency presentations related to
our 2007 bond issue. I would be available mid to late next week to meet. I
will ask Kat to set something up. In the mean time, do you want us to proceed
with filling the 10 positions that have been submitted per my email below or
should we hold off? Let me know how you wish to proceed.

Good Afternoon Cindy,
     I would like to request a sit down with all parties concerned to sit and
discuss where we go from here. Having just received our targets for the 2008
budgets, I'm now concerned, not only for a 2007 deficit, but also how we will
deal with 2008 given the targets. While I appreciate the opportunity that
allows me to determine how to split the pot, I believe we have some residual
items from the 2007 budget that have yet to reconciled that will have a
significant impact on the department. Please let me know when you think we can
get together to come to resolve with these items.
Thanks,
George

        Approval to fill housekeeping and security positions





Jack,
I understand that you and James met to go over your staffing plans for 2007 and
your unfunded DC48 positions. As I mentioned in my letter, your budget as
adopted partially unfunded 20 FTE in security and housekeeping. Based on our
analysis, funding these positions for the remainder of the year would have
required an additional salary and social security appropriation of
approximately $760,000. I asked that you work with DAS to identify the most
critical of the 20 FTE that needed to be filled in an effort to minimize the
size of a 2007 shortfall.
I understand that you and James have agreed that your critical needs include
the immediate filling of 5 security positions and 5 housekeeping positions.
While your budget includes the full funding of the fringe related to these 10
positions, it does not include sufficient salary and social security funds
related to filling these. Filling the 10 above identified positions will leave
your budget short by approximately $227,000. You may proceed with filling the
10 FTE requested. I understand that by doing so your budget will be
underfunded by a maximum of $227,000. DAS will attempt to identify sufficient
savings in other parts of County government so that this shortfall can be
funded.

I also understand that you will want to fill the remaining 10 unfunded
positions in July. Please know that your ability to fill the remaining 10 in
July will be dependent upon your ability to absorb the cost associated with
filling these. If these are high priority positions, you have flexibility to
manage other vacancies or identify other savings within your department
sufficient to cover the costs of filling the remaining unfunded security and
housekeeping positions.
Sorry, this is the best I can do. Call me if you want to discuss and thanks
for your patience as we worked through this. Remember, anything you fill now
will have to be absorbed within your 2008 levy targets -- be careful. :)

Hi Cindy,

until we can sit and talk. I'd hate to see us move forward and just create a

Attached are the 5-year projections. Note the projections are only the green
portion of the spreadsheet under the expenditure tab. Ignore the rest of
sheet. PLEASE DO NOT CHANGE ANY OF THESE NUMBERS WITHOUT TELLING ME SINCE THIS
SHEETS FEEDS INTO OTHER NON-LINKED SHEETS.
We should meet to review this and discuss how we want to use this data and who
we want to share it with.
Please review. Pam the red cells require more discussion and explanation.
Also as we discussed yesterday, we need an estimate for revenue bond proceeds
in 2012 since having 0 in there skews the bottom line gap figures. The other
two red cells look appear out of line with the trends. Please look at these
and add notes if necessary.
Thanks.

2006 Fiscal Year
The 2006 third quarter report for Milwaukee County estimated a 2006 projected an
ending deficit of $1,500,000.
Subsequently, the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) updated this projection
Current estimates indicate an improvement in the 2006 year-end financial position and
projected a surplus of approximately $2,000,000. The change in financial position from
the initial third quarter estimate is the result of a decrease in the projected deficit for
Employee Fringe Benefits as well as surpluses in Earnings on Investments and the
Department on Aging-Care Maintenance Organization (CMO).
DAS is still in the process of completing its analysis for the 2006 closing including:
departmental results, balance sheet accounts, and carryovers. The final results will not be
known until June 2007.
2007 Fiscal Year
Early estimates for 2007 indicate projected shortfalls in the areas of juvenile corrections
($1.9 million), Housing and Economic Development ($980,000), mental health services
($1.7 million) and sales tax collections ($1.9 million). However, these projected
shortfalls will be offset by the availability of approximately $3.1 million in contingency
funds budgeted in 2007 for unanticipated resource needs, the unexpected increase in
surplus funds in the County’s Care Management Organization ($2.7 million) and positive
employee health care trends that are expected to produce higher than budgeted savings.
Future Fiscal Outlook
As is the case with most local governments, employee compensation and fringe benefits
continue to present budget challenges for Milwaukee County. However, during the last
year the County has reached labor settlements with three of its eight unions including the
County’s largest union (AFSCME) which represents almost 80% of the represented staff
in Milwaukee County. During labor negotiations the County was able to secure modest
pay increases for 2007 and 2008, employee health care concessions and pension
enhancement rollbacks.
Recent labor negotiations concluded with wage settlements of 1% effective November
2007, 1% effective April 2008, 1% effective June 2008 and 1% effective October 2008.
The settled labor contracts also included increased health insurance co-payments and
deductibles and the restructuring of health insurance premiums to encourage steerage to
lower cost health plans resulting in projected health care savings of $2.5 million in 2007
and $3.0 million in 2008. Finally, the labor agreements included provisions to eliminate
the Rule of 75 for all new hires, eliminate the pension backdrop payment for all new hires
and limit the payout of sick leave upon retirement from 100% to a maximum of 25% for
all future sick leave earned (except for Deputy Sheriffs).
In addition to recent labor settlements, the County has moved aggressively to control the
growth in employee health care costs thorough other avenues. The County’s 2007

CArcher_Email3012499

Budget included authorization to create a new Employee Benefits Division that will focus
solely on managing and identifying cost-containment opportunities in the areas of
employee health care, ______ and _______. The Division has secured the services of a
benefits advisory consulting firm to assist with the creation, design and staffing of the
new division and assist with the development of data models using recently acquired
employee health care cost and utilization databases. Further, one of the first directives
given to the new Division is the development and implementation of an Employee
Wellness Program that will target services and assistance to high-end health care users in
an effort to further contain costs and improve overall employee health and productivity.
The Employee Wellness Program will be implemented in January 2008.
Finally, in mid-2006 the County converted from a fully insured health plan to selfinsured. Under the self-insured model the County will gain access to employee health
cost and utilization data not previously available. The availability of this data will allow
the County to develop data-driven cost containment initiatives targeted at cost centers and
utilization areas yielding the greatest return. Prior to converting to self-insured, the
County faced health care cost increases of 17%-18% per year for the years 2007, 2008
and 2009. Moving to self-insured will result in estimated savings of $18.7 million from
2007-2009 as the rate of increase is expected to decrease to the range of 13%-15% per
year.
It should be noted that the above modifications to employee health care became effective
for non-represented staff, selected unions and County retirees early in 2006, while the
County’s largest union did not settle until early in 2007. The combined impact of the
above changes is evidenced by a material decrease in the rate of health care cost growth
during 2006 when the County saw a 3% increase vs. the projected 17% increase in
employee health care costs. The county’s projection for 2007 has been adjusted to reflect
an expected increase of 9% in 2008 and 11% in 2009 and subsequent years compared to
the earlier 13%-15% increase.
Pension costs continue to be a cost pressure for the County. In ___, the County’s
actuarial consultant recommended county contributions to the pension fund of $59
million which consisted of $25.5 million for normal cost and $33.5 million towards the
amortization of the County’s unfunded pension liability that total $455 million. The 2007
Budget included pension contributions totally $49.3 million or $9.7 million less than that
recommended by the actuary. Based on the current practice of budgeting for pension
contributions, it is estimated that the County would be required to budget in excess of $60
million annually to improve the funding position of the County’s Employee Retirement
System from its current funded level of 79% to a funded level of 100% at the end of the
ERS’s adopted funding plan, approximately 30 years.
The County is aggressively pursuing initiatives to limit the growth in required pension
contributions. Initiatives include seeking State authorization to issue pension obligation
bonds and the achievement of rollbacks of components of the pension enhancements

CArcher_Email3012500

approved in 2001. See “Milwaukee County Retirement System” for a complete
discussion of budgeting for pension costs and accomplishments related to the rollback of
pension enhancements.
While the County has made great strides over the last year in securing employee
concessions in the area of employee health care and the rollback of the 2001 pension
enhancements, employee compensation and fringe benefits will continue to be a cost
pressure in the 2008 budget and beyond.
Based on preliminary planning projections the County projection a potential funding gap
in 2008 of approximately $33.7 million_____. The projected shortfall is largely driven
by projected increases in employee salaries and social security ($9.0 million), increased
fringe costs ($$9.5 million), increased projected pension contributions ($5.1 million),
increased debt service payments resulting from the refinancing of debt undertaken in
($13.9 million) and a reduction of growth in expected sales tax collections ($2.2 million).
It should be noted that it is not unusual at this point in the budget process to project
expected funding gaps. These are preliminary estimates based on data available at this
time and do not include revenue re-estimates and cost containment initiatives that will
occur during the budget process.
The County regularly prepares five-year projections for both its capital program and the
operating budget. These are planning projections and typically are based on the most
conservative assumptions. For example, the projections below assume that prior-year
shortfalls are not addressed in the year they are projected as part of the budget process.
As a result, each subsequent year carries forward the prior year shortfall as if it were not
addressed. Since under State statute the County is required to adopt a balanced budget,
the projections are only intended to illustrate budget pressures that policymakers will be
required to address in each years budget process.
Below are the preliminary projections for each of the next five years. These are planning
projections and are subject to revisions. While the Sate imposed property tax levy cap
adopted in 2005 has sunset, for purposes of the below forecast it is assumed that the State
imposed levy cap adopted in 2005 and applicable to the 2006 and 2007 budget will
remain in effect over the years included in the projections. Increases to the property tax
levy reflect the maximum allowable levy based on the State cap imposed in 2005.

2006 Fiscal Year
Milwaukee County’s 2006 fiscal position improved throughout the year. Early estimates
for 2006 suggested the County would operate with a deficit of $8.9 million, and the 2006
third quarter report estimated a 2006projected year-end deficit of $1.5 million. However,
the most recent projection of the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) indicates
a projected year-end surplus of approximately $2.0 million. The change in financial
position from earlier estimates is largely the result of a series of mid-year corrective
actions, a decrease in the projected deficit for Employee Fringe Benefits, as well as
surpluses in Earnings on Investments and the Department on Aging-Care Maintenance
Organization (CMO).
DAS is still in the process of completing its analysis for the 2006 closing including:
departmental results, balance sheet accounts, and carryovers. The final results will not be
known until June 2007.
2007 Fiscal Year
Early estimates for 2007 indicate projected shortfalls in the areas of juvenile corrections
($1.9 million), Housing and Economic Development ($980,000), mental health services
($1.7 million) and sales tax collections ($1.9 million). However, these projected
shortfalls are expected to be offset by the availability of approximately $3.1 million in
contingency funds budgeted in 2007 for unanticipated resource needs, an unexpected
increase in surplus funds in the County’s Care Management Organization ($2.7 million)
and positive employee health care trends that are expected to produce higher than
budgeted savings. Fiscal staff will continue to closely monitor the County’s overall fiscal
status and, as in previous years, will propose mid-year corrective actions if necessary.
Future Fiscal Outlook
As is the case with most local governments, employee compensation and fringe benefits
continue to present budget challenges for Milwaukee County. However, during the last
year, the County has reached favorable labor settlements with three of its eight unions,
including the County’s largest union (AFSCME), which represents almost 80% of the
represented staff in Milwaukee County. During labor negotiations the County was able
to secure modest pay increases for 2007 and 2008, employee health care concessions and
pension enhancement rollbacks.
Recent labor negotiations concluded with wage settlements of 1% effective November
2007, 1% effective April 2008, 1% effective June 2008 and 1% effective October 2008.
The settled labor contracts also include increased health insurance co-payments and
deductibles and the restructuring of health insurance premiums to encourage steerage to
lower cost health plans, resulting in projected health care savings of $2.5 million in 2007
and $3.0 million in 2008. Finally, the labor agreements include provisions to eliminate
the Rule of 75 for all new hires (this provision allows workers to retire when their age and
years of service total 75), eliminate the pension backdrop payment for all new hires and
limit the payout of sick leave upon retirement from 100% to a maximum of 25% for all
future sick leave earned (except for Deputy Sheriffs).

CArcher_Email3012504

In addition to recent labor settlements, the County has moved aggressively to control the
growth in employee health care costs thorough other avenues. The County’s 2007
Budget includes authorization to create a new Employee Benefits Division that will focus
on managing and identifying cost-containment opportunities in the areas of employee
health care, dental care, life insurance and other benefits. The Division has secured the
services of a renowned benefits advisory consulting firm to assist with the creation,
design and staffing of the new division and assist with the development of data models
using recently acquired employee health care cost and utilization databases. Further, one
of the first directives given to the new Division is the development and implementation of
an Employee Wellness and Disease Management Program that will target services and
assistance to high-end health care users in an effort to further contain costs and improve
overall employee health and productivity. The Employee Wellness Program will be
implemented in January 2008.
Finally, in mid-2006, the County converted from a fully insured health plan to a selfinsured plan. Under the self-insured model, which is accompanied by a stop-loss
insurance provision, the County will be able to better control its costs. Prior to this
conversion, the County was projecting health care cost increases of 17%-18% per year
for the years 2007, 2008 and 2009. Moving to self-insured will result in estimated
savings of $18.7 million from 2007-2009, as the rate of increase is expected to decrease
to the range of 13%-15% per year.
It should be noted that the above modifications to employee health care became effective
for non-represented staff, selected unions and County retirees early in 2006, while the
County’s largest union did not settle until early in 2007. The combined impact of the
above changes is evidenced by a material decrease in the rate of health care cost growth
during 2006, when the County saw a 3% increase vs. the projected 17% increase in
employee health care costs. The County’s projection for 2007 has been adjusted to
reflect an expected increase of 9% in 2008 and 11% in 2009 and subsequent years
compared to the earlier 13%-15% increase.
As noted below, pension benefits continue to be a significant cost pressure for the
County. In the spring of 2006, the County’s actuarial consultant recommended county
contributions to the pension fund of $59 million for 2007, which consisted of $25.5
million for normal cost and $33.5 million towards the amortization of the County’s
unfunded pension liability (which totals $455 million). The 2007 Budget included
pension contributions totaling $49.3 million, or $9.7 million less than that recommended
by the actuary. Based on the current practice of budgeting for pension contributions, it is
estimated that the County would be required to budget in excess of $60 million annually
to improve the funding position of the County’s Employee Retirement System from its
current funded level of 79% to a funded level of 100% at the end of the ERS’s adopted
funding plan, approximately 30 years.

The County is aggressively pursuing initiatives to limit the growth in required pension
contributions. Initiatives include seeking State authorization to issue pension obligation
bonds and the achievement of rollbacks of components of the pension enhancements
approved in 2001. See “Milwaukee County Retirement System” for a complete
discussion of budgeting for pension costs and accomplishments related to the rollback of

Paragraph disclosing and briefly discussing retiree health liability (OPEB) – SCOTT
HELP!
While the County has made great strides over the last year in securing employee
concessions in the area of employee health care and the rollback of the 2001 pension
enhancements, employee compensation and fringe benefits will continue to be a cost
pressure in the 2008 budget and beyond. Resolving the County’s structural imbalance
will require it to review its current expenditure commitments, revenue streams and the
cost pressures outlined above. The County will then need to decide whether it will reduce
expenditure commitments to accommodate the projected costs of health benefits, pension
contributions and OPEB or seek and implement new revenue sources. This will
necessitate a reevaluation by the County of its core functions, and the funding
assumptions used to support them.
Based on preliminary planning projections, the County projects a potential funding gap in
2008 of approximately $33.7 million. The projected shortfall is largely driven by
projected increases in employee salaries and social security ($9.0 million), increased
fringe costs ($9.5 million), increased projected pension contributions ($5.1 million),
increased debt service payments resulting from the refinancing of debt undertaken in
2003 ($13.9 million) and a reduction of growth in expected sales tax collections ($2.2
million). It should be noted that it is not unusual at this point in the budget process to
project expected funding gaps. These are preliminary estimates based on data available
at this time and do not include revenue re-estimates and cost containment initiatives that
will occur during the budget process.
The County regularly prepares five-year projections for both its capital program and the

remain in effect over the years included in the projections. Increases to the property tax
levy reflect the maximum allowable levy based on the State cap imposed in 2005.

2006 Fiscal Year
Milwaukee County’s 2006 fiscal position improved throughout the year. Early estimates
for 2006 suggested the County would operate with a deficit of $8.9 million, and the 2006
third quarter report estimated a 2006projected year-end deficit of $1.5 million. However,
the most recent projection of the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) indicates
a projected year-end surplus of approximately $2.0 million. The change in financial
position from earlier estimates is largely the result of a series of mid-year corrective
actions, a decrease in the projected deficit for Employee Fringe Benefits, as well as
surpluses in Earnings on Investments and the Department on Aging-Care Maintenance
Organization (CMO).
DAS is still in the process of completing its analysis for the 2006 closing including:
departmental results, balance sheet accounts, and carryovers. The final results will not be
known until June 2007.
2007 Fiscal Year
Early estimates for 2007 indicate projected shortfalls in the areas of juvenile corrections
($1.9 million), Housing and Economic Development ($980,000), mental health services
($1.7 million) and sales tax collections ($1.9 million). However, these projected
shortfalls are expected to be offset by the availability of approximately $3.1 million in
contingency funds budgeted in 2007 for unanticipated resource needs, an unexpected
increase in surplus funds in the County’s Care Management Organization ($2.7 million)
and positive employee health care trends that are expected to produce higher than
budgeted savings. Fiscal staff will continue to closely monitor the County’s overall fiscal
status and, as in previous years, will propose mid-year corrective actions if necessary.
Future Fiscal Outlook
As is the case with most local governments, employee compensation and fringe benefits
continue to present budget challenges for Milwaukee County. However, during the last
year, the County has reached favorable labor settlements with three of its eight unions,
including the County’s largest union (AFSCME), which represents almost 80% of the
represented staff in Milwaukee County. During labor negotiations the County was able
to secure modest pay increases for 2007 and 2008, employee health care concessions and
pension enhancement rollbacks.
Recent labor negotiations concluded with wage settlements of 1% effective November
2007, 1% effective April 2008, 1% effective June 2008 and 1% effective October 2008.
The settled labor contracts also include increased health insurance co-payments and
deductibles and the restructuring of health insurance premiums to encourage steerage to
lower cost health plans, resulting in projected health care savings of $2.5 million in 2007
and $3.0 million in 2008. Finally, the labor agreements include provisions to eliminate
the Rule of 75 for all new hires (this provision allows workers to retire when their age and
years of service total 75), eliminate the pension backdrop payment for all new hires and
limit the payout of sick leave upon retirement from 100% to a maximum of 25% for all
future sick leave earned (except for Deputy Sheriffs).

CArcher_Email3012516

In addition to recent labor settlements, the County has moved aggressively to control the
growth in employee health care costs thorough other avenues. The County’s 2007
Budget includes authorization to create a new Employee Benefits Division that will focus
on managing and identifying cost-containment opportunities in the areas of employee
health care, dental care, life insurance and other benefits. The Division has secured the
services of a renowned benefits advisory consulting firm to assist with the creation,
design and staffing of the new division and assist with the development of data models
using recently acquired employee health care cost and utilization databases. Further, one
of the first directives given to the new Division is the development and implementation of
an Employee Wellness and Disease Management Program that will target services and
assistance to high-end health care users in an effort to further contain costs and improve
overall employee health and productivity. The Employee Wellness Program will be
implemented in January 2008.
Finally, in mid-2006, the County converted from a fully insured health plan to a selfinsured plan. Under the self-insured model, which is accompanied by a stop-loss
insurance provision, the County will be able to better control its costs. Prior to this
conversion, the County was projecting health care cost increases of 17%-18% per year
for the years 2007, 2008 and 2009. Moving to self-insured will result in estimated
savings of $18.7 million from 2007-2009, as the rate of increase is expected to decrease
to the range of 13%-15% per year.
It should be noted that the above modifications to employee health care became effective
for non-represented staff, selected unions and County retirees early in 2006, while the
County’s largest union did not settle until early in 2007. The combined impact of the
above changes is evidenced by a material decrease in the rate of health care cost growth
during 2006, when the County saw a 3% increase vs. the projected 17% increase in
employee health care costs. The County’s projection for 2007 has been adjusted to
reflect an expected increase of 9% in 2008 and 11% in 2009 and subsequent years
compared to the earlier 13%-15% increase.
As noted below, pension benefits continue to be a significant cost pressure for the
County. In the spring of 2006, the County’s actuarial consultant recommended county
contributions to the pension fund of $59 million for 2007, which consisted of $25.5
million for normal cost and $33.5 million towards the amortization of the County’s
unfunded pension liability (which totals $455 million). The 2007 Budget included
pension contributions totaling $49.3 million, or $9.7 million less than that recommended
by the actuary. Based on the current practice of budgeting for pension contributions, it is
estimated that the County would be required to budget in excess of $60 million annually
to improve the funding position of the County’s Employee Retirement System from its
current funded level of 79% to a funded level of 100% at the end of the ERS’s adopted
funding plan, approximately 30 years.

CArcher_Email3012517

The County is aggressively pursuing initiatives to limit the growth in required pension
contributions. Initiatives include seeking State authorization to issue pension obligation
bonds and the achievement of rollbacks of components of the pension enhancements
approved in 2001. See “Milwaukee County Retirement System” for a complete
discussion of budgeting for pension costs and accomplishments related to the rollback of
pension enhancements.
Paragraph disclosing and briefly discussing retiree health liability (OPEB) – SCOTT
HELP!
While the County has made great strides over the last year in securing employee
concessions in the area of employee health care and the rollback of the 2001 pension
enhancements, employee compensation and fringe benefits will continue to be a cost
pressure in the 2008 budget and beyond. Resolving the County’s structural imbalance
will require it to review its current expenditure commitments, revenue streams and the
cost pressures outlined above. The County will then need to decide whether it will reduce
expenditure commitments to accommodate the projected costs of health benefits, pension
contributions and OPEB or seek and implement new revenue sources. This will
necessitate a reevaluation by the County of its core functions, and the funding
assumptions used to support them.
Based on preliminary planning projections, the County projects a potential funding gap in
2008 of approximately $33.7 million. The projected shortfall is largely driven by
projected increases in employee salaries and social security ($9.0 million), increased
fringe costs ($9.5 million), increased projected pension contributions ($5.1 million),
increased debt service payments resulting from the refinancing of debt undertaken in
2003 ($13.9 million) and a reduction of growth in expected sales tax collections ($2.2
million). It should be noted that it is not unusual at this point in the budget process to
project expected funding gaps. These are preliminary estimates based on data available
at this time and do not include revenue re-estimates and cost containment initiatives that
will occur during the budget process.
The County regularly prepares five-year projections for both its capital program and the
operating budget. These are planning projections and typically are based on conservative
assumptions. For example, the projections below assume that prior-year shortfalls are not
addressed in the year they are projected as part of the budget process. As a result, each
subsequent year carries forward the prior year shortfall as if it were not addressed. Since
under State statute the County is required to adopt a balanced budget, the projections are
only intended to illustrate budget pressures that policymakers will be required to address
in each year’s budget process.
Below are the preliminary projections for each of the next five years. These are planning
projections and are subject to revisions. While the State-imposed property tax levy cap

CArcher_Email3012518

adopted in 2005 has expired, for purposes of the forecast below it is assumed that the
State-imposed levy cap adopted in 2005 and applicable to the 2006 and 2007 budgets will
remain in effect over the years included in the projections. Increases to the property tax
levy reflect the maximum allowable levy based on the State cap imposed in 2005.

2006 Fiscal Year
Milwaukee County’s 2006 fiscal position improved throughout the year. Early estimates
for 2006 suggested the County would operate with a deficit of $8.9 million, and the 2006
third quarter report estimated a 2006 projected year-end deficit of $1.5 million.
However, the most recent projection of the Department of Administrative Services (DAS)
indicates a projected year-end surplus of approximately $2.0 million. The change in
financial position from earlier estimates is largely the result of a series of mid-year
corrective actions, a decrease in the projected deficit for Employee Fringe Benefits, as
well as surpluses in Earnings on Investments and the Department on Aging-Care
Maintenance Organization (CMO).
DAS is still in the process of completing its analysis for the 2006 closing including:
departmental results, balance sheet accounts, and carryovers. The final results will not be
known until June 2007.
2007 Fiscal Year
Early estimates for 2007 indicate projected shortfalls in the areas of juvenile corrections
($1.9 million), Housing and Economic Development ($980,000), mental behaviorial
health services ($1.7 million) and sales tax collections ($1.9 million). However, these
projected shortfalls are expected to be offset by the availability of approximately $3.1
million in contingency funds budgeted in 2007 for unanticipated resource needs, an
unexpected increase in surplus funds in the County’s Care Management Organization
($2.7 million) and positive employee health care trends that are expected to produce
higher than budgeted savings. Fiscal staff will continue to closely monitor the County’s
overall fiscal status and, as in previous years, will propose mid-year corrective actions if
necessary.
Future Fiscal Outlook
As is the case with most local governments, employee compensation and fringe benefits
continue to present budget challenges for Milwaukee County. However, during the last
year, the County has reached favorable labor settlements with three of its eight unions,
including the County’s largest union (AFSCME), which represents almost 80% of the
represented staff in Milwaukee County. During labor negotiations the County was able
to secure modest pay increases for 2007 and 2008, employee health care concessions and
pension enhancement rollbacks.
Recent labor negotiations concluded with wage settlements of 1% effective November
2007, 1% effective April 2008, 1% effective June 2008 and 1% effective October 2008.
The settled labor contracts also include increased health insurance co-payments and
deductibles and the restructuring of health insurance premiums to encourage steerage to
lower cost health plans, resulting in projected health care savings of $2.5 million in 2007
and $3.0 million in 2008. Finally, the labor agreements include provisions to eliminate
the Rule of 75 for all new hires (this provision allows workers to retire when their age and
years of service total 75), eliminate the pension backdrop payment for all new hires and

CArcher_Email3012527

limit the payout of sick leave upon retirement from 100% to a maximum of 25% for all
future sick leave earned (except for Deputy Sheriffs).
In addition to recent labor settlements, the County has moved aggressively to control the
growth in employee health care costs thorough other avenues. The County’s 2007
Budget includes authorization to create a new Employee Benefits Division that will focus
on managing and identifying cost-containment opportunities in the areas of employee
health care, dental care, life insurance and other benefits. The Division has secured the
services of a renowned benefits advisory consulting firm to assist with the creation,
design and staffing of the new division and assist with the development of data models
using recently acquired employee health care cost and utilization databases. Further, one
of the first directives given to the new Division is the development and implementation of
an Employee Wellness and Disease Management Program that will target services and
assistance to high-end health care users in an effort to further contain costs and improve
overall employee health and productivity. The Employee Wellness Program will be
implemented in January 2008.
Finally, in mid-2006, the County converted from a fully insured health plan to a selfinsured plan. Under the self-insured model, which is accompanied by a stop-loss
insurance provision, the County will be able to better control its costs. Prior to this
conversion, the County was projecting health care cost increases of 17%-18% per year
for the years 2007, 2008 and 2009. Moving to self-insured will result in estimated
savings of $18.7 million from 2007-2009, as the rate of increase is expected to decrease
to the range of 13%-15% per year.
It should be noted that the above modifications to employee health care became effective
for non-represented staff, selected unions and County retirees early in 2006, while the
County’s largest union did not settle until early in 2007. The combined impact of the
above changes is evidenced by a material decrease in the rate of health care cost growth
during 2006, when the County saw a 3% increase vs. the projected 17% increase in
employee health care costs. The County’s projection for 2007 has been adjusted to
reflect an expected increase of 9% in 2008 and 11% in 2009 and subsequent years
compared to the earlier 13%-15% increase.
As noted below, pension benefits continue to be a significant cost pressure for the
County. In the spring of 2006, the County’s actuarial consultant recommended county
contributions to the pension fund of $59 million for 2007, which consisted of $25.5
million for normal cost and $33.5 million towards the amortization of the County’s
unfunded pension liability (which totals $455 million). The 2007 Budget included
pension contributions totaling $49.3 million, or $9.7 million less than that recommended
by the actuary. Based on the current practice of budgeting for pension contributions, it is
estimated that the County would be required to budget in excess of $60 million annually
to improve the funding position of the County’s Employee Retirement System from its

CArcher_Email3012528

current funded level of 79%76% to a funded level of 100% at the end of the ERS’s
adopted funding plan, approximately 30 years.
The County is aggressively pursuing initiatives to limit the growth in required pension
contributions. Initiatives include seeking State authorization to issue pension obligation
bonds and the achievement of rollbacks of components of the pension enhancements
approved in 2001. See “Milwaukee County Retirement System” for a complete
discussion of budgeting for pension costs and accomplishments related to the rollback of
pension enhancements.
Paragraph disclosing and briefly discussing retiree health liability (OPEB) – SCOTT
HELP!The County has received its first actuarial report of post-retirement health and life
benefits under Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement #45 –
“Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other
than Pensions”. The County has chosen to accrue for the cost of the annual required
contribution for Proprietary Funds, and footnote the cost associated with governmental
funds. The County has no plans to establish a post-retirement trust for health care or
make contributions to a trust, only accrue the costs associated with proprietary fund
departments. Anticipated accrual for future years is $6.0 million for County departments,
except the Transit System. The County stopped providing post-retirement health care for
employees who began after January 1, 1994. Employees who started prior to this date
and worked 15 years with the County were eligible for post-retirement health care. The
Transit System is separately managed, with separate union agreements for its employees.
The Transit System still has post-retirement health insurance available for current and
new employees based on the number of years of services but is in the process of
negotiating agreements with its employees to reduce its future health care costs. A final
actuarial required contribution is not available at this time.
While the County has made great strides over the last year in securing employee
concessions in the area of employee health care and the rollback of the 2001 pension
enhancements, employee compensation and fringe benefits will continue to be a cost
pressure in the 2008 budget and beyond. Resolving the County’s structural imbalance
will require it to review its current expenditure commitments, revenue streams and the
cost pressures outlined above. The County will then need to decide whether it will reduce
expenditure commitments to accommodate the projected costs of health benefits, pension
contributions and OPEB or seek and implement new revenue sources. This will
necessitate a reevaluation by the County of its core functions, and the funding
assumptions used to support them.
Based on preliminary planning projections, the County projects a potential funding gap in
2008 of approximately $33.7 million. The projected shortfall is largely driven by
projected increases in employee salaries and social security ($9.0 million), increased
fringe costs ($9.5 million), increased projected pension contributions ($5.1 million),
increased debt service payments resulting from the refinancing of debt undertaken in

CArcher_Email3012529

2003 ($13.9 million) and a reduction of growth in expected sales tax collections ($2.2
million). It should be noted that it is not unusual at this point in the budget process to
project expected funding gaps. These are preliminary estimates based on data available
at this time and do not include revenue re-estimates and cost containment initiatives that
will occur during the budget process.
The County regularly prepares five-year projections for both its capital program and the
operating budget. These are planning projections and typically are based on conservative
assumptions. For example, the projections below assume that prior-year shortfalls are not
addressed in the year they are projected as part of the budget process. As a result, each
subsequent year carries forward the prior year shortfall as if it were not addressed. Since
under State statute the County is required to adopt a balanced budget, the projections are
only intended to illustrate budget pressures that policymakers will be required to address
in each year’s budget process.
Below are the preliminary projections for each of the next five years. These are planning
projections and are subject to revisions. While the State-imposed property tax levy cap
adopted in 2005 has expired, for purposes of the forecast below it is assumed that the
State-imposed levy cap adopted in 2005 and applicable to the 2006 and 2007 budgets will
remain in effect over the years included in the projections. Increases to the property tax
levy reflect the maximum allowable levy based on the State cap imposed in 2005.

for the years 2007, 2008 and 2009. Moving to self-insured will result in estimated
savings of $18.7 million from 2007-2009, as the rate of increase is expected to decrease
to the range of 13%-15% per year.
It should be noted that the above modifications to employee health care became effective
for non-represented staff, selected unions and County retirees early in 2006, while the
County’s largest union did not settle until early in 2007. The combined impact of the
above changes is evidenced by a material decrease in the rate of health care cost growth
during 2006, when the County saw a 3% increase vs. the projected 17% increase in
employee health care costs. The County’s projection for 2007 has been adjusted to
reflect an expected increase of 9% in 2008 and 11% in 2009 and subsequent years
compared to the earlier 13%-15% increase.
As noted below, pension benefits continue to be a significant cost pressure for the
County. In the spring of 2006, the County’s actuarial consultant recommended county
contributions to the pension fund of $59 million for 2007, which consisted of $25.5
million for normal cost and $33.5 million towards the amortization of the County’s
unfunded pension liability (which totals $455 million). The 2007 Budget included
pension contributions totaling $49.3 million, or $9.7 million less than that recommended
by the actuary. Based on the current practice of budgeting for pension contributions, it is
estimated that the County would be required to budget in excess of $60 million annually
to improve the funding position of the County’s Employee Retirement System from its

CArcher_Email3012533

current funded level of 79%76% to a funded level of 100% at the end of the ERS’s
adopted funding plan, approximately 30 years.
The County is aggressively pursuing initiatives to limit the growth in required pension
contributions. Initiatives include seeking State authorization to issue pension obligation
bonds and the achievement of rollbacks of components of the pension enhancements
approved in 2001. See “Milwaukee County Retirement System” for a complete
discussion of budgeting for pension costs and accomplishments related to the rollback of
pension enhancements.
Paragraph disclosing and briefly discussing retiree health liability (OPEB) – SCOTT
HELP!The County has received its first actuarial report of post-retirement health and life
benefits under Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement #45 –
“Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other
than Pensions”. The County has chosen to accrue for the cost of the annual required
contribution for Proprietary Funds, and footnote the cost associated with governmental
funds. The County has no plans to establish a post-retirement trust for health care or
make contributions to a trust, only accrue the costs associated with proprietary fund
departments. Anticipated accrual for future years is $6.0 million for County departments,
except the Transit System. The County stopped providing post-retirement health care for
employees who began after January 1, 1994. Employees who started prior to this date
and worked 15 years with the County were eligible for post-retirement health care. The
Transit System is separately managed, with separate union agreements for its employees.
The Transit System still has post-retirement health insurance available for current and
new employees based on the number of years of services but is in the process of
negotiating agreements with its employees to reduce its future health care costs. A final
actuarial required contribution is not available at this time.
While the County has made great strides over the last year in securing employee
concessions in the area of employee health care and the rollback of the 2001 pension
enhancements, employee compensation and fringe benefits will continue to be a cost
pressure in the 2008 budget and beyond. Resolving the County’s structural imbalance
will require it to review its current expenditure commitments, revenue streams and the
cost pressures outlined above. The County will then need to decide whether it will reduce
expenditure commitments to accommodate the projected costs of health benefits, pension
contributions and OPEB or seek and implement new revenue sources. This will
necessitate a reevaluation by the County of its core functions, and the funding
assumptions used to support them.
Based on preliminary planning projections, the County projects a potential funding gap in
2008 of approximately $33.7 million. The projected shortfall is largely driven by
projected increases in employee salaries and social security ($9.0 million), increased
fringe costs ($9.5 million), increased projected pension contributions ($5.1 million),
increased debt service payments resulting from the refinancing of debt undertaken in

CArcher_Email3012534

2003 ($13.9 million) and a reduction of growth in expected sales tax collections ($2.2
million). It should be noted that it is not unusual at this point in the budget process to
project expected funding gaps. These are preliminary estimates based on data available
at this time and do not include revenue re-estimates and cost containment initiatives that
will occur during the budget process.
The County regularly prepares five-year projections for both its capital program and the
operating budget. These are planning projections and typically are based on conservative
assumptions. For example, the projections below assume that prior-year shortfalls are not
addressed in the year they are projected as part of the budget process. As a result, each
subsequent year carries forward the prior year shortfall as if it were not addressed. Since
under State statute the County is required to adopt a balanced budget, the projections are
only intended to illustrate budget pressures that policymakers will be required to address
in each year’s budget process.
Below are the preliminary projections for each of the next five years. These are planning
projections and are subject to revisions. While the State-imposed property tax levy cap
adopted in 2005 has expired, for purposes of the forecast below it is assumed that the
State-imposed levy cap adopted in 2005 and applicable to the 2006 and 2007 budgets will
remain in effect over the years included in the projections. Increases to the property tax
levy reflect the maximum allowable levy based on the State cap imposed in 2005.

Rob, I went over the capital expenditures last night with Pam and she convinced
me that the capital expenditures are offset by capital revenues which consisted
of only about $600,000 of sales tax revenue in 2011 and $1.1 million in 2012.
I am still somewhat skeptical, so I intended to review the variances down the
line today in an attempt to identify where the swing is coming from. I agree
on the face of it something looks odd.

2006 Fiscal Year
Milwaukee County’s 2006 fiscal position improved throughout the year. Early estimates
for 2006 suggested the County would operate with a deficit of $8.9 million, and the 2006
third quarter report estimated a 2006 projected year-end deficit of $1.5 million.
However, the most recent projection of the Department of Administrative Services (DAS)
indicates a projected year-end surplus of approximately $2.0 million. The change in
financial position from earlier estimates is largely the result of a series of mid-year
corrective actions, a decrease in the projected deficit for Employee Fringe Benefits, as
well as surpluses in Earnings on Investments and the Department on Aging-Care
Maintenance Organization (CMO).
DAS is still in the process of completing its analysis for the 2006 closing including:
departmental results, balance sheet accounts, and carryovers. The final results will not be
known until June 2007.
2007 Fiscal Year
Early estimates for 2007 indicate projected shortfalls in the areas of juvenile corrections
($1.9 million), Housing and Economic Development ($980,000), mental behaviorial
health services ($1.7 million) and sales tax collections ($1.9 million). However, these
projected shortfalls are expected to be offset by the availability of approximately $3.1
million in contingency funds budgeted in 2007 for unanticipated resource needs, an
unexpected increase in surplus funds in the County’s Care Management Organization
($2.7 million) and positive employee health care trends that are expected to produce
higher than budgeted savings. Fiscal staff will continue to closely monitor the County’s
overall fiscal status and, as in previous years, will propose mid-year corrective actions if
necessary.
Future Fiscal Outlook
As is the case with most local governments, employee compensation and fringe benefits
continue to present budget challenges for Milwaukee County. However, during the last
year, the County has reached favorable labor settlements with three of its eight unions,
including the County’s largest union (AFSCME), which represents almost 80% of the
represented staff in Milwaukee County. During labor negotiations the County was able
to secure modest pay increases for 2007 and 2008, employee health care concessions and
pension enhancement rollbacks.
Recent labor negotiations concluded with wage settlements of 1% effective November
2007, 1% effective April 2008, 1% effective June 2008 and 1% effective October 2008.
The settled labor contracts also include increased health insurance co-payments and
deductibles and the restructuring of health insurance premiums to encourage steerage to
lower cost health plans, resulting in projected health care savings of $2.5 million in 2007
and $3.0 million in 2008. Finally, the labor agreements include provisions to eliminate
the Rule of 75 for all new hires (this provision allows workers to retire when their age and
years of service total 75), eliminate the pension backdrop payment for all new hires and

CArcher_Email3012538

limit the payout of sick leave upon retirement from 100% to a maximum of 25% for all
future sick leave earned (except for Deputy Sheriffs).
In addition to recent labor settlements, the County has moved aggressively to control the
growth in employee health care costs thorough other avenues. The County’s 2007
Budget includes authorization to create a new Employee Benefits Division that will focus
on managing and identifying cost-containment opportunities in the areas of employee
health care, dental care, life insurance and other benefits. The Division has secured the
services of a renowned benefits advisory consulting firm to assist with the creation,
design and staffing of the new division and assist with the development of data models
using recently acquired employee health care cost and utilization databases. Further, one
of the first directives given to the new Division is the development and implementation of
an Employee Wellness and Disease Management Program that will target services and
assistance to high-end health care users in an effort to further contain costs and improve
overall employee health and productivity. The Employee Wellness Program will be
implemented in January 2008.
Finally, in mid-2006, the County converted from a fully insured health plan to a selfinsured plan. Under the self-insured model, which is accompanied by a stop-loss
insurance provision, the County will be able to better control its costs. Prior to this
conversion, the County was projecting health care cost increases of 17%-18% per year
for the years 2007, 2008 and 2009. Moving to self-insured will result in estimated
savings of $18.7 million from 2007-2009, as the rate of increase is expected to decrease
to the range of 13%-15% per year.
It should be noted that the above modifications to employee health care became effective
for non-represented staff, selected unions and County retirees early in 2006, while the
County’s largest union did not settle until early in 2007. The combined impact of the
above changes is evidenced by a material decrease in the rate of health care cost growth

pension contributions totaling $49.3 million, or $9.7 million less than that recommended

estimated that the County would be required to budget in excess of $60 million annually
to improve the funding position of the County’s Employee Retirement System from its

CArcher_Email3012539

Please review and let me know if any changes are required. Pam look at the
part where I talk about debt service going up -- is "refinancing" the right
word?
I am curious do we say anywhere in the official statement that our operating
budget is $1 billion to put the gap figures into perspective?

2006 Fiscal Year
Milwaukee County’s 2006 fiscal position improved throughout the year. Early estimates
for 2006 suggested the County would operate with a deficit of $8.9 million, and the 2006
third quarter report estimated a 2006 projected year-end deficit of $1.5 million.
However, the most recent projection of the Department of Administrative Services (DAS)
indicates a projected year-end surplus of approximately $2.0 million. The change in
financial position from earlier estimates is largely the result of a series of mid-year
corrective actions, a decrease in the projected deficit for Employee Fringe Benefits, as
well as surpluses in Earnings on Investments and the Department on Aging-Care
Maintenance Organization (CMO).
DAS is still in the process of completing its analysis for the 2006 closing including:
departmental results, balance sheet accounts, and carryovers. The final results will not be
known until June 2007.
2007 Fiscal Year
Early estimates for 2007 indicate projected shortfalls in the areas of juvenile corrections
($1.9 million), Housing and Economic Development ($980,000), behavioral health
services ($1.7 million) and sales tax collections ($1.9 million). However, these projected
shortfalls are expected to be offset by the availability of approximately $3.1 million in
contingency funds budgeted in 2007 for unanticipated resource needs, an unexpected
increase in surplus funds in the County’s Care Management Organization ($2.7 million)
and positive employee health care trends that are expected to produce higher than
budgeted savings. Fiscal staff will continue to closely monitor the County’s overall fiscal
status and, as in previous years, will propose mid-year corrective actions if necessary.
Future Fiscal Outlook
As is the case with most local governments, employee compensation and fringe benefits
continue to present budget challenges for Milwaukee County. However, during the last
year the County has reached favorable labor settlements with three of its eight unions,
including the County’s largest union (AFSCME), which represents almost 80% of the
represented staff in Milwaukee County. During labor negotiations the County was able
to secure modest pay increases for 2007 and 2008, employee health care concessions and
pension enhancement rollbacks.
Recent labor negotiations concluded with wage settlements of 1% effective November
2007, 1% effective April 2008, 1% effective June 2008 and 1% effective October 2008.
The settled labor contracts also include increased health insurance co-payments and
deductibles and the restructuring of health insurance premiums to encourage steerage to
lower cost health plans, resulting in projected health care savings of $2.5 million in 2007
and $3.0 million in 2008. Finally, the labor agreements include provisions to eliminate
the pension backdrop payment for all new hires and limit the payout of sick leave upon
retirement from 100% to a maximum of 25% for all future sick leave earned (except for
Deputy Sheriffs).

CArcher_Email3012571

In addition to recent labor settlements, the County has moved aggressively to control the
growth in employee health care costs thorough other avenues. The County’s 2007
Budget includes authorization to create a new Employee Benefits Division that will focus
on managing and identifying cost-containment opportunities in the areas of employee
health care, dental care, life insurance and other benefits. The Division has secured the
services of a renowned benefits advisory consulting firm to assist with the creation,
design and staffing of the new division and assist with the development of data models
using recently acquired employee health care cost and utilization databases. Further, one
of the first directives given to the new Division is the development and implementation of
an Employee Wellness and Disease Management Program that will target services and
assistance to high-end health care users in an effort to further contain costs and improve
overall employee health and productivity. The Employee Wellness Program will be
implemented in January 2008.
Finally, in mid-2006, the County converted from a fully-insured health plan to a selfinsured plan. Under the self-insured model, which is accompanied by a stop-loss
insurance provision, the County will be able to better control its costs. Prior to this
conversion, the County was projecting health care cost increases of 17%-18% per year
for the years 2007, 2008 and 2009. Moving to self-insured will result in estimated
savings of $18.7 million from 2007-2009, as the rate of increase is expected to decrease
to the range of 13%-15% per year.
It should be noted that the above modifications to employee health care became effective
for non-represented staff, selected unions and County retirees early in 2006, while the
County’s largest union did not settle until early in 2007. The combined impact of the
above changes is evidenced by a material decrease in the rate of health care cost growth
during 2006, when the County saw a 3% increase vs. the projected 17% increase in
employee health care costs. The County’s projection for 2007 has been adjusted to
reflect an expected increase of 9% in 2007, 8% in 2008 and 11% in 2009 and subsequent
years compared to the earlier 13%-15% increase.
As noted below, pension benefits continue to be a significant cost pressure for the
County. In the spring of 2006, the County’s actuarial consultant recommended county
contributions to the pension fund of $59 million for 2007, which consisted of $25.5
million for normal cost and $33.5 million towards the amortization of the County’s
unfunded pension liability (which totals $455 million). The 2007 Budget included
pension contributions totaling $49.3 million, or $9.7 million less than that recommended
by the actuary. Based on the current practice of budgeting for pension contributions, it is
estimated that the County would be required to budget in excess of $60 million annually
to improve the funding position of the County’s Employee Retirement System from its
current funded level of 76% to a funded level of 100% at the end of the ERS’s adopted
funding plan, approximately 30 years.

CArcher_Email3012572

The County is aggressively pursuing initiatives to limit the growth in required pension
contributions. Initiatives include seeking State authorization to issue pension obligation
bonds and the achievement of rollbacks of components of the pension enhancements
approved in 2001. See “Milwaukee County Retirement System” for a complete
discussion of budgeting for pension costs and accomplishments related to the rollback of
pension enhancements.
The County has received its first actuarial report of post-retirement health and life
benefits under Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement #45 –
“Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other
than Pensions”. The County has chosen to accrue for the cost of the annual required
contribution for Proprietary Funds, and footnote the cost associated with governmental
funds. The County has no plans to establish a post-retirement trust for health care or
make contributions to a trust, but only plans to accrue the costs associated with
proprietary fund departments. Anticipated accrual for future years is $6.0 million for
County departments, except the Transit System. The County stopped providing postretirement health care for employees who began after January 1, 1994. Employees who
started prior to this date and worked 15 years with the County were eligible for postretirement health care. The Transit System is separately managed, with separate union
agreements for its employees. The Transit System still has post-retirement health
insurance available for current and new employees based on the number of years of
service but is in the process of negotiating agreements with its employees to reduce its
future health care costs. A final actuarial required contribution is not available at this
time.
While the County has made great strides over the last year in securing employee
concessions in the area of employee health care and the rollback of the 2001 pension
enhancements, employee compensation and fringe benefits will continue to be a cost
pressure in the 2008 budget and beyond. Resolving the County’s projected structural
imbalance will require it to review its current expenditure commitments, revenue streams
and the cost pressures outlined above. The County will then need to decide whether it
will reduce expenditure commitments to accommodate the projected costs of health
benefits, pension contributions and OPEB or seek and implement new revenue sources.
This will necessitate a reevaluation by the County of its core functions, and the funding
assumptions used to support them.
Based on preliminary planning projections, the County projects a potential funding gap in
2008 of approximately $26.6 million. The projected shortfall is largely driven by
projected increases in employee salaries and social security ($9.0 million), increased
fringe costs ($9.5 million), increased projected pension contributions ($5.1 million),
increased debt service payments resulting from the refinancing of debt undertaken in
2003 ($13.9 million) and a reduction of growth in expected sales tax collections ($1.6
million). It should be noted that it is not unusual at this point in the budget process to
project expected funding gaps. These are preliminary estimates based on data available

CArcher_Email3012573

at this time and do not include revenue re-estimates and cost containment initiatives that
will occur during the budget process.
The County regularly prepares five-year projections for both its capital program and the
operating budget. These are planning projections and typically are based on conservative
assumptions. For example, the projections below assume that prior-year shortfalls are not
addressed in the year they are projected as part of the budget process. As a result, each
subsequent year carries forward the prior year shortfall as if it were not addressed. Since
under State statute the County is required to adopt a balanced budget, the projections are
only intended to illustrate budget pressures that policymakers will be required to address
in each year’s budget process.
Below are the preliminary projections for each of the next five years. These are planning
projections and are subject to revisions. While the State-imposed property tax levy cap
adopted in 2005 has expired, for purposes of the forecast below it is assumed that the
State-imposed levy cap adopted in 2005 and applicable to the 2006 and 2007 budgets will
remain in effect over the years included in the projections. Increases to the property tax
levy reflect the maximum allowable levy based on the State cap enacted in 2005.

services of a renowned benefits advisory consulting firm to assist with the creation,
design and staffing of the new division and assist with the development of data models
using recently acquired employee health care cost and utilization databases. Further, one
of the first directives given to the new Division is the development and implementation of
an Employee Wellness and Disease Management Program that will target services and
assistance to high-end health care users in an effort to further contain costs and improve
overall employee health and productivity. The Employee Wellness Program will be
implemented in January 2008.
Finally, in mid-2006, the County converted from a fully-insured health plan to a selfinsured plan. Under the self-insured model, which is accompanied by a stop-loss
insurance provision, the County will be able to better control its costs. Prior to this
conversion, the County was projecting health care cost increases of 17%-18% per year
for the years 2007, 2008 and 2009. Moving to self-insured will result in estimated
savings of $18.7 million from 2007-2009, as the rate of increase is expected to decrease
to the range of 13%-15% per year.
It should be noted that the above modifications to employee health care became effective
for non-represented staff, selected unions and County retirees early in 2006, while the
County’s largest union did not settle until early in 2007. The combined impact of the
above changes is evidenced by a material decrease in the rate of health care cost growth
during 2006, when the County saw a 3% increase vs. the projected 17% increase in
employee health care costs. The County’s projection for 2007 has been adjusted to
reflect an expected increase of 9% in 2007, 8% in 2008 and 11% in 2009 and subsequent
years compared to the earlier 13%-15% increase.
As noted below, pension benefits continue to be a significant cost pressure for the
County. In the spring of 2006, the County’s actuarial consultant recommended county
contributions to the pension fund of $59 million for 2007, which consisted of $25.5
million for normal cost and $33.5 million towards the amortization of the County’s
unfunded pension liability (which totals $455 million). The 2007 Budget included
pension contributions totaling $49.3 million, or $9.7 million less than that recommended
by the actuary. Based on the current practice of budgeting for pension contributions, it is
estimated that the County would be required to budget in excess of $60 million annually
to improve the funding position of the County’s Employee Retirement System from its
current funded level of 76% to a funded level of 100% at the end of the ERS’s adopted
funding plan, approximately 30 years.

CArcher_Email3012577

The County is aggressively pursuing initiatives to limit the growth in required pension
contributions. Initiatives include seeking State authorization to issue pension obligation
bonds and the achievement of rollbacks of components of the pension enhancements
approved in 2001. See “Milwaukee County Retirement System” for a complete
discussion of budgeting for pension costs and accomplishments related to the rollback of
pension enhancements.
The County has received its first actuarial report of post-retirement health and life
benefits under Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement #45 –
“Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other
than Pensions”. The County has chosen to accrue for the cost of the annual required
contribution for Proprietary Funds, and footnote the cost associated with governmental
funds. The County has no plans to establish a post-retirement trust for health care or
make contributions to a trust, but only plans to accrue the costs associated with
proprietary fund departments. Anticipated accrual for future years is $6.0 million for
County departments, except the Transit System. The County stopped providing postretirement health care for employees who began after January 1, 1994. Employees who
started prior to this date and worked 15 years with the County were eligible for postretirement health care. The Transit System is separately managed, with separate union
agreements for its employees. The Transit System still has post-retirement health
insurance available for current and new employees based on the number of years of
service but is in the process of negotiating agreements with its employees to reduce its
future health care costs. A final actuarial required contribution is not available at this
time.
While the County has made great strides over the last year in securing employee
concessions in the area of employee health care and the rollback of the 2001 pension
enhancements, employee compensation and fringe benefits will continue to be a cost
pressure in the 2008 budget and beyond. Resolving the County’s projected structural
imbalance will require it to review its current expenditure commitments, revenue streams
and the cost pressures outlined above. The County will then need to decide whether it
will reduce expenditure commitments to accommodate the projected costs of health
benefits, pension contributions and OPEB or seek and implement new revenue sources.
This will necessitate a reevaluation by the County of its core functions, and the funding
assumptions used to support them.
Based on preliminary planning projections, the County projects a potential funding gap in
2008 of approximately $26.6 million. The projected shortfall is largely driven by
projected increases in employee salaries and social security ($9.0 million), increased
fringe costs ($9.5 million), increased projected pension contributions ($5.1 million),
increased debt service payments resulting from the refinancing of debt undertaken in
2003 ($13.9 million) and a reduction of growth in expected sales tax collections ($1.6
million). It should be noted that it is not unusual at this point in the budget process to
project expected funding gaps. These are preliminary estimates based on data available

CArcher_Email3012578

at this time and do not include revenue re-estimates and cost containment initiatives that
will occur during the budget process.
The County regularly prepares five-year projections for both its capital program and the
operating budget. These are planning projections and typically are based on conservative
assumptions. For example, the projections below assume that prior-year shortfalls are not
addressed in the year they are projected as part of the budget process. As a result, each
subsequent year carries forward the prior year shortfall as if it were not addressed. Since
under State statute the County is required to adopt a balanced budget, the projections are
only intended to illustrate budget pressures that policymakers will be required to address
in each year’s budget process.
Below are the preliminary projections for each of the next five years. These are planning
projections and are subject to revisions. While the State-imposed property tax levy cap
adopted in 2005 has expired, for purposes of the forecast below it is assumed that the
State-imposed levy cap adopted in 2005 and applicable to the 2006 and 2007 budgets will
remain in effect over the years included in the projections. Increases to the property tax
levy reflect the maximum allowable levy based on the State cap enacted in 2005.

I was thinking about this and it might be a good idea to have department's
submit to CEX and DAS a list of major accomplishments over the last five
years. We could prepare something that first hightlights those, and then
higlights budget and taxing accomplishments and then looks ahead. I am not
talking about asking departments for huge effort, just a list of 4 or 5
dot-points for their department that we could include in a presentation. Let
me know what you think.

Unfunded DC 48 Parks positions
Wednesday, May 02, 2007 10:45:59 AM

Sue and Jim,
Alex and I met with Jim to go over your priorities for filling vacant DC48
unfunded Parks positions on April 20. As I mentioned in my letter, your budget
as adopted partially unfunded 33 FTE in your department. Based on our
analysis, funding these positions for the remainder of the year would require
an additional salary and social security appropriation of approximately $1.3
million. Consistent with my communication to the Audit and Finance Committee,
I asked that you work with DAS to identity the most critical of the 33 that
needed to be filled in an effort to minimize the size of the 2007 shortfall
while maintaining the Parks system.
Based on our meeting with Jim, it was reported that you have filled 5 of the 33
unfunded positions and that you were not requesting to fill any other
vacancies since you have relied on seasonal workers to perform the work. At
our meeting, it was agreed that DAS would attempt to find savings in the 4th
quarter of the year to reallocate to Parks to cover the unfunded salary and
social security costs of these five positions (approximately $400,000). It was
also proposed by Jim and agreed to by DAS that additional seasonal workers
could be hired up to a limit $100,000 to backfill for the remaining vacancies.
DAS will also make adjustments at the end of the year to cover this from other
areas of county government. To be clear, DAS has committed to identifying up
to $500,000 so that Parks can proceed with staffing for critical operational
needs.
I understand that you may have other revenue issues. While the above may
assist you in meeting your revenue pressures, our main goal was to ensure
adequate staffing for the Park's Department. Jim has committed to meeting any
remaining revenue issues the Parks department may face in 2007 to ensure a
balanced budget at the end of the year.
I appreciate Jim's assistance in bringing forth a plan that meets the Park's
department needs while recognizing the county budget constraints created by the
2007 budget provision that left these positions unfunded.
Give me a call if you want to discuss further and thanks again for presenting a
plan that meets our mutual goals.

Thanks. It was good seeing you too.
I have attached the part of the statutes that relate to this issue. Below is
my explanation that I ran past legal and my Finance Director. I have not heard
from legal but my Finance Director concludes my description below is accurate.
My Finance Director is going to respond directly related to your question about
reserved and unreserved fund balances.
We have also compiled copies of our debt policy, our five year projections and
five year capital plan, investment policies and our general accounting and
budgeting ordinance. We have been asked for this and thought I would share it
with you as well. Pam will email the info to you.
See email below for relevant references.

rating agency question

Bill, I may need you help on this one. I have been told repeatedly since
arriving that the County is prohibited from having an undesignated fund
balance. For example in other counties, the year end surplus goes into a fund
balance and it is allowed to accumulate to whatever level the County Board
determines. By the same token, in other counties if there is a year-end
general fund deficit, it is covered by the accumulated fund balance. In
CArcher_Email3012617

Milwaukee County, the statutes dictate that a any balance at the end of a year
must be used in the next year to offset the levy (s.59.60(5)(g)), to pay off
debt or for the creation of a "stabilization fund".
While Milwaukee County has elected to not create a stabilization fund, in the
event we had one the following limits would apply per s.59.60(13) -- it can not
exceed 5% of the current year budget; it can only be drawn upon in the event
the levy is expected to grow by more 3%; it cannot be used to offset deficits.
Have I understood this correctly. This is important to our rating agencies
because my experience has been that bond rating agencies like to see "healthy"
undesignated fund balance. Also, it is clear that Milwaukee County is governed
by statutes that are far more restrictive than the statutes governing other
Counties related to this topic.
I made the point at the rating agency briefing that at the end of the year our
appropriations lapse (s. 59.60 (11)) and any surplus or deficit is made up in
the following year's budget. i.e., 2006 surplus must be used to offset 2008
levy increase. The exception to this is that funds for ongoing capital
projects can be carried forward.
Moody's would like a copy of the statutes, but I wanted to be sure my
explanation noted above is correct. How did I do?

(2) CONSOLIDATION OF MUNICIPAL SERVICES, HOME RULE, METROPOLITAN DISTRICT. (a) Except as elsewhere specifically provided in these statutes, the board of any county is vested with all
powers of a local, legislative and administrative character, including without limitation because of enumeration, the subject matter
of water, sewers, streets and highways, fire, police, and health, and
to carry out these powers in districts which it may create for different purposes, or throughout the county, and for such purposes to
levy county taxes, to issue bonds, assessment certificates and
improvement bonds, or any other evidence of indebtedness. The
powers hereby conferred may be exercised by the board in any
municipality, or part thereof located in the county upon the request
of any such municipality, evidenced by a resolution adopted by a
majority vote of the members−elect of its governing body, designating the particular function, duty or act, and the terms, if any,
upon which the powers shall be exercised by the board or by a similar resolution adopted by direct legislation in the municipality in
the manner provided in s. 9.20. The resolution shall further provide whether the authority or function is to be exercised exclusively by the county or jointly by the county and the municipality,
and shall also find that the exercise of such power by the county
would be in the public interest. Upon the receipt of the resolution,
the board may, by a resolution adopted by a majority vote of its
membership, elect to assume the exercise of the function, upon the
terms and conditions set forth in the resolution presented by the
municipality.
(b) The board of any county may, by a resolution adopted by
a majority of its membership, propose to any of the municipalities
located in the county that it offers to exercise such powers and
functions therein in order to consolidate municipal services and
functions in the county. Such resolution shall designate the particular function, duty or act and the terms and conditions, if any, upon
which the board will perform the function, duty or act. The powers conferred in par. (a) and designated in such resolution may
thereafter be exercised by the board in each municipality which
accepts the proposal by the adoption of a resolution by a majority
vote of the members−elect of its governing body or by direct legislation in the manner provided in s. 9.20.

(c) Whenever the request under par. (a) or acceptance under
par. (b) of a municipality is by resolution of its governing board,
the request or acceptance shall not go into effect until the expiration of 60 days from the adoption of the resolution or, in the case
of county law enforcement services provided to a city as described
in s. 62.13 (2s), as provided in s. 62.13 (2s) (d). If a petition under
s. 9.20 for direct legislation on the request or acceptance is filed
before the expiration of said 60 days, the resolution of the governing board is of no effect but the request or acceptance of such
municipality shall be determined by direct legislation, except that
no petition for direct legislation under s. 9.20 may be filed to
approve or reject a contract entered into by a city and a county
under s. 62.13 (2s).
(d) After and upon the adoption of resolutions by the board and
subject to par. (c) by one or more municipalities either as provided
in par. (a) or (b) the board shall have full power to legislate upon
and administer the entire subject matter committed to it, and
among other things, to determine, where not otherwise provided
by law, the manner of exercising the power thus assumed.
(e) The municipality concerned may enter into necessary contracts with the county, and appropriate money to pay to the county
the reasonable expenses incurred by it in rendering the services
assumed. Such expenses may be certified, returned and paid as are
other county charges, and in the case of services performed under
a proposal for the consolidation thereof initiated by the board and
made available to each municipality in the county on the same
terms, the expenses thereof shall be certified, returned and paid as
county charges; but in the event that every municipality in the
county accepts the proposal of the board, the expenses thereof
shall be paid by county taxes to be levied and collected as are other
taxes for county purposes. The municipalities are vested with all
necessary power to do the things herein required, and to do all
things and to exercise or relinquish any of the powers herein provided or contemplated. The procedure provided in this subsection
for the request or acceptance of the exercise of the powers conferred on the board in cities and villages is hereby prescribed as
a special method of determining the local affairs and government
of such cities and villages under article XI, section 3, of the constitution.
(f) The powers conferred by this subsection shall be in addition
to all other grants of power and shall be limited only by express
language.

59.04 Construction of powers. To give counties the largest
measure of self−government under the administrative home rule
authority granted to counties in s. 59.03 (1), this chapter shall be
liberally construed in favor of the rights, powers and privileges of
counties to exercise any organizational or administrative power.

county, to be determined by the registration list for the last previous general election held in the county at the time of filing, the
names of which voters shall appear on the registration list for such
election, asking for a change of the county seat to some other place
designated in the petition, the board shall submit the question of
removal of the county seat to a vote of the qualified voters of the
county. The board shall file the question as provided in s. 8.37.
The election shall be held only on the day of the general election,
notice of the election shall be given and the election shall be conducted as in the case of the election of officers on that day, and the

the proposed change, the chairperson of the board shall certify the
same, with the attestation of the county clerk, to the governor, who
shall issue a proclamation to that effect and publish it in the official
state paper. From the date of publication the place designated
shall be the county seat. The board may not again submit the question of removal within 5 years.

county seat may be held for a period of 5 years after the year in
which a courthouse or other county building costing $3,000 or
more was built at the county seat and occupied for county purposes.

counties to a vote of the qualified electors of the counties.
(b) The question of the consolidation of the counties shall be
submitted to the voters at the next election to be held on the first
Tuesday in April, or the next regular election, or at a special election to be held on the day fixed in the order issued under par. (a),
which day shall be the same in each of the counties proposing to
consolidate. A copy of the order shall be filed with the county
clerk of each of the counties as provided in s. 8.37. If the question
of consolidation is submitted at a special election, it shall be held
not less than 42 days nor more than 60 days from the completion
of the consolidation agreement, but not within 60 days of any
spring or general election.
(8) The clerk shall notice such election as other elections. The

of the election shall be certified to the judges of the circuit courts
for the counties.
(10) If a majority of the votes cast in each county upon the
question of consolidation are in favor of the consolidation of the
counties, the judge of the circuit court shall enter that fact of record
in each county. If in any one of the counties less than a majority
of the votes cast upon the question of consolidation are in favor
of the proposed consolidation, the consolidation shall be declared
to have failed for all purposes. If a majority of the votes cast upon
the question of consolidation in any county are opposed to consolidation, the question of consolidation shall not be again submitted
to the electors of that county for a period of 2 years.
(11) At the next succeeding regular November election, held
at least 60 days after the election at which consolidation is
approved by the voters, there shall be elected for the consolidated
county all county officers provided for by law and the officers
shall be nominated as provided in ch. 6. Their terms shall begin
on the first Monday of January next succeeding their election, at
which time they shall replace all elective county officers of the
counties that are consolidated into the consolidated county whose
terms shall on that day terminate. All appointive county officers
shall be appointed by the person, board or authority upon whom
the power to appoint such officers in other counties is conferred.
The terms of the officers shall commence on the first Monday of
January next succeeding the first election of officers for the consolidated county, and shall continue, unless otherwise removed,
until their successors have been appointed and qualified. The successors of all officers whose first election or appointment is provided for in this subsection shall thereafter be elected or appointed
at the time, in the manner and for the terms provided by law.
(13) Upon the first Monday of January following the first
election of county officers for the consolidated county, the several
counties shall thereafter for all purposes be treated and considered
as one county, under the name and upon the terms and conditions
set forth in the consolidation agreement. All rights, privileges,
and franchises of each of the several counties, and all records,
books, and documents, and all property, real and personal, and all
debts due on whatever account, as well as other things in action,
belonging to each of the counties, shall be considered transferred
to and vested in the consolidated county, without further act or
deed. All property, all rights−of−way, and all and every other
interest shall be as effectually the property of the consolidated
county as they were of the several counties before the consolidation. The title to real estate, either by deed or otherwise, under the
laws of this state vested in any of the counties, shall not be considered to revert or be in any way impaired by reason of this consolidation. The rights of creditors and all liens upon the property of
any of the counties shall be preserved unimpaired, and the respective counties shall be considered to continue in existence to preserve the same and all debts, liabilities and duties of any of the
counties shall attach to the consolidated county and be enforced
against it to the same extent as if the debts, liabilities and duties
had been incurred or contracted by it, unless by the terms of the
agreement the outstanding bonded indebtedness of the counties
shall not be transferred and attached to the consolidated county,
but shall remain as obligations of the counties which for such purpose shall be considered to continue in existence.
(14) Suits may be brought and maintained against the consolidated county in any of the courts of this state in the same manner
as against any other county. Any action or proceeding pending by
or against any of the counties consolidated may be prosecuted to
judgment as if the consolidation had not taken place, or the consolidated county may be substituted in its place. The towns, school
districts, election districts and voting places in the consolidated
county shall continue as in the several counties before consolidation, unless and until changed in accordance with law.
(15) Until changed by law, the same circuit courts shall continue, though it may result in the consolidated county being a part
of 2 or more circuits. All such courts shall, however, be held at the
place designated as the county seat of the consolidated county, and

each such court and the judge of that court shall continue to have
and exercise the same jurisdiction as the court or the judge had and
exercised before the consolidation. If 2 or more judges have jurisdiction in any consolidated county they or a majority of them shall
exercise the power to appoint officers and fill vacancies as is
vested in judges of circuit courts of other counties.
(16) For the purpose of representation in congress and in the
legislature the existing congressional, senatorial and assembly
districts shall continue until changed in accordance with law. The
consolidated county shall in all respects, except as otherwise provided in this section, be subject to all the obligations and liabilities
imposed, and shall possess all the rights, powers and privileges

(d) Changes during decade. 1. ‘Number of supervisors; redistricting.’ The board may, not more than once prior to November
15, 2010, decrease the number of supervisors after the enactment
of a supervisory district plan under par. (a). In that case, the board
shall redistrict, readjust, and change the boundaries of supervisory
districts, so that the number of districts equals the number of
supervisors, the districts are substantially equal in population
according to the most recent countywide federal census, the districts are in as compact a form as possible, and the districts consist
of contiguous whole wards in existence at the time at which the
redistricting plan is adopted. In the redistricting plan, the board
shall adhere to the requirements under sub. (3) (b) 2. with regard
to contiguity and shall, to the extent possible, place whole contiguous municipalities or contiguous parts of the same municipality
within the same district. In redistricting under this subdivision,
the original numbers of the districts in their geographic outlines,
to the extent possible, shall be retained. The chairperson of the
board shall file a certified copy of any redistricting plan adopted
under this subdivision with the secretary of state.
2. ‘Election; term.’ Any redistricting plan enacted under
subd. 1. becomes effective on the first November 15 following its
enactment, and first applies to the spring election following the
plan’s effective date. Any redistricting plan enacted under subd.
1. shall remain in effect until the effective date of a redistricting
plan subsequently enacted under par. (a). Supervisors elected
from the districts created under subd. 1. shall serve for 4−year
terms and shall take office on the 3rd Monday in April following
their election.
(3) OTHER COUNTIES. (a) Classification; maximum number of
supervisors. Counties with a population of less than 500,000 and
more than one town are classified and entitled to a maximum number of supervisors as follows:
1. Counties with a population of less than 500,000 but at least
100,000 shall have no more than 47 supervisors.
2. Counties with a population of less than 100,000 but at least
50,000 shall have no more than 39 supervisors.
3. Counties with a population of less than 50,000 but at least
25,000 shall have no more than 31 supervisors.
4. Counties with a population of less than 25,000 and containing more than one town shall have no more than 21 supervisors.
5. If the population of any county is within 2% of the minimum population for the next most populous grouping under this
paragraph, the board thereof, in establishing supervisory districts,
may employ the maximum number for such districts set for such
next most populous grouping.
(b) Creation of supervisory districts. 1. Within 60 days after
the population count by block, established in the decennial federal
census of population, and maps showing the location and numbering of census blocks become available in printed form from the
federal government or are published for distribution by an agency
of this state, but no later than July 1 following the year of each
decennial census, each board shall propose a tentative county
supervisory district plan setting forth the number of supervisory
districts and tentative boundaries or a description of boundary
requirements, hold a public hearing on the proposed plan and
adopt a tentative plan. The proposed plan may be amended after

the public hearing. The board shall solicit suggestions from
municipalities concerning the development of an appropriate
plan. The board shall transmit to each municipal governing body
in the county the tentative plan that is adopted. Each district shall
consist of whole wards or municipalities. Each district shall be
designated to be represented by one supervisor, and all districts
shall be substantially equal in population. In the tentative plan, the
board shall, whenever possible, place whole contiguous municipalities or contiguous parts of the same municipality within the
same district. If the division of a municipality is sought by the
board, the board shall provide with the plan a written statement to
the municipality affected by each proposed division specifying
the approximate location of the territory from which a ward is
sought to be created for contiguity purposes and the approximate
population of the ward proposed to effectuate the division.
2. Within 60 days after every municipality in the county
adjusts its wards under s. 5.15, the board shall hold a public hearing and shall then adopt a final supervisory district plan, numbering each district. Wards within each supervisory district created
by the plan shall be contiguous, except that one or more wards
located within a city or village which is wholly surrounded by
another city or water, or both, may be combined with one or more
noncontiguous wards, or one or more wards or portions of wards
consisting of island territory as defined in s. 5.15 (2) (f) 3. may be
combined with one or more noncontiguous wards or portions of
wards within the same municipality, to form a supervisory district.
4. The chairperson of the board shall file a certified copy of
the final districting plan with the secretary of state.
(c) Changes during decade; municipal boundary adjustments.
After the enactment of a plan of supervisory districts under par.
(b), a municipal incorporation, annexation, detachment or consolidation may serve as a basis for altering between federal decennial
censuses the boundaries of supervisory districts, in the discretion
of the board. The number of supervisory districts in the county
shall not be changed by any action under this paragraph. Any plan
of county supervisory districts enacted under par. (b) may be
amended under this paragraph but shall remain in effect as
amended until superseded by another plan enacted by the board
under par. (b) and filed with the secretary of state.
(cm) Changes during decade; reduction in size. 1. ‘Number
of supervisors; redistricting.’ Except as provided in subd. 3., following the enactment of a decennial supervisory district plan
under par. (b), the board may decrease the number of supervisors.
In that case, the board shall redistrict, readjust, and change the
boundaries of supervisory districts, so that the number of districts
equals the number of supervisors, the districts are substantially
equal in population according to the most recent countywide federal census, the districts are in as compact a form as possible, and
the districts consist of contiguous whole wards in existence at the
time at which the redistricting plan is adopted. In the redistricting
plan, the board shall adhere to the requirements under par. (b) 2.
[and 3.] with regard to contiguity and shall, to the extent possible,
place whole contiguous municipalities or contiguous parts of the
same municipality within the same district. In redistricting under
this subdivision, the original numbers of the districts in their geographic outlines, to the extent possible, shall be retained. No plan
may be enacted under this subdivision during review of the sufficiency of a petition filed under subd. 2. nor after a referendum is
scheduled on such a petition. However, if the electors of the
county reject a change in the number of supervisory districts under
subd. 2., the board may then take action under this subdivision
except as provided in subd. 3. The county clerk shall file a certified copy of any redistricting plan enacted under this subdivision
with the secretary of state.
NOTE: The bracketed cross−reference was repealed by 2005 Wis. Act 235.
Corrective legislation is pending.

2. ‘Petition and referendum.’ Except as provided in subd. 3.,
the electors of a county may, by petition and referendum, decrease
the number of supervisors at any time after the first election is held
following enactment of a decennial supervisory district plan

under par. (b). A petition for a change in the number of supervisors
may be filed with the county clerk. Prior to circulating a petition
to decrease the number of supervisors in any county, a petitioner
shall register with the county clerk, giving the petitioner’s name
and address and indicating the petitioner’s intent to file such a
petition. No signature on a petition is valid unless the signature
is obtained within the 60−day period following such registration.
The petition shall specify the proposed number of supervisors to
be elected. Within 14 days after the last day for filing an original
petition, any other petitioner may file an alternative petition with
the county clerk proposing a different number of supervisors to be
elected, and, if the petition is valid, the alternative proposed in the
petition shall be submitted for approval at the same referendum.
An alternative petition is subject to the same registration and signature requirements as an original petition. Each petition shall be
in the form specified in s. 8.40 and shall contain a number of signatures of electors of the county equal to at least 25 percent of the
total votes cast in the county for the office of supervisor at the most
recent spring election preceding the date of filing. The county
clerk shall promptly determine the sufficiency of a petition filed
under this subdivision. Upon determination that a petition is sufficient, or if one or more valid alternative petitions are filed, upon
determination that the petitions are sufficient, the county clerk
shall call a referendum concurrently with the next spring or general election in the county that is held not earlier than 42 days after
the determination is made. The question proposed at the referendum shall be: “Shall the board of supervisors of .... County be
decreased from .... members to .... members?”. If one or more
alternative valid petitions are filed within 14 days after the last day
that an original petition may be filed, the question relating to the
number of supervisors shall appear separately. The first question
shall be: “Shall the size of the county board of supervisors of ....
County be decreased from its current membership of .... members?”. Any subsequent question shall be: “If so, shall the size of
the board be decreased to .... members?”. Each elector may vote
in the affirmative or negative on the first question and may then
vote in the affirmative on one of the remaining questions. If the
first question is not approved by a majority of the electors voting
on the question, any subsequent question is of no effect. If the
question is approved by a majority of the electors voting on the
question, or, if more than one question is submitted, if the first
question is approved by a majority of the electors voting on the
question, the board shall enact an ordinance prescribing revised
boundaries for the supervisory districts in the county. The ordinance shall be enacted in accordance with the approved question
or, if more than one question is submitted, in accordance with the
choice receiving a plurality of the votes cast. The districts are subject to the same requirements that apply to districts in any plan
enacted by the board under subd. 1. If the board has determined
under sub. (1) (b) to adopt staggered terms for the office of supervisor, the board may change the expiration date of the term of any
supervisor to an earlier date than the date provided under current
ordinance if required to implement the redistricting or to maintain
classes of members. The county clerk shall file a certified copy
of any redistricting plan enacted under this subdivision with the
secretary of state.
3. ‘Limitation.’ If the number of supervisors in a county is
decreased by the board or by petition under this paragraph, no further action may be taken by the board or by petition under this
paragraph in that county until after enactment of the next decennial supervisory district plan by the board under par. (b).
4. ‘Election; term.’ Any redistricting plan enacted under
subd. 1. takes effect on November 15 following its enactment and
first applies to the election of supervisors at the next spring election following the effective date that immediately precedes the
expiration of the terms of office of supervisors in the county. Any
reduction in the number of supervisory districts under subd. 2. that
is approved at a spring election shall be enacted in the form of a
redistricting plan no later than November 15 following that elec-

tion and shall first apply to the election of supervisors at the next
spring election immediately preceding the expiration of the terms
of office of supervisors in the county, and any reduction in the
number of supervisory districts under subd. 2. that is approved at
a general election shall be enacted in the form of a redistricting
plan no later than the 2nd succeeding November 15 following that
election and shall first apply to the election of supervisors at the
next spring election following that November 15 immediately
preceding the expiration of the terms of office of supervisors in the
county. Any redistricting plan enacted under subd. 1. or 2. shall
remain in effect until the effective date of any subsequent redistricting plan enacted under sub. (3) (c) or until the effective date
of a redistricting plan subsequently enacted under par. (b). Supervisors elected from the districts created under subd. 1. or 2. shall
serve for 2−year terms and shall take office on the 3rd Tuesday in
April following their election.
(d) Election and term of supervisors. Supervisors are county
officers, shall be elected for 2−year terms at the election to be held
on the first Tuesday in April in even−numbered years and shall
take office on the 3rd Tuesday in April of that year.
(e) Vacancies. If a vacancy occurs on the board, the board
chairperson, with the approval of the board, shall appoint a person
who is a qualified elector and resident of the supervisory district
to fill the vacancy. The successor shall serve for the unexpired
portion of the term to which the person is appointed, unless the
board orders a special election to fill the vacancy, in which case
the person appointed shall serve until his or her successor is
elected and qualified. The board may, if a vacancy occurs before
June 1 in the year preceding expiration of the term of office, order
a special election to fill the vacancy. If the board orders a special
election during the period beginning on June 1 and ending on
November 30 of any year, the special election shall be held concurrently with the succeeding spring election. If the board orders
a special election during the period beginning on December 1 and
ending on May 31 of the succeeding year, the special election shall
be held on the Tuesday after the first Monday in November following the date of the order. A person so elected shall serve for
the residue of the unexpired term.
(f) Compensation. Each supervisor shall be paid a per diem by
the county for each day that he or she attends a meeting of the
board. Any board may, at its annual meeting, by a two−thirds vote
of all the members, fix the compensation of the board members to
be next elected. Any board may also provide additional compensation for the chairperson.
(g) Mileage. Each supervisor shall, for each day that he or she
attends a meeting of the board, receive mileage for each mile traveled in going to and returning from the meetings by the most usual
traveled route at the rate established by the board under s. 59.22
as the standard mileage allowance for all county employees and
officers.
(h) Limitation on compensation. Except for services as a member of a committee as provided in s. 59.13 no supervisor shall be
paid for more days’ attendance on the board in any year than is set
out in this schedule: in counties having a population of less than
25,000, 20 days; at least 25,000 but less than 100,000, 25 days; at
least 100,000 but less than 500,000, 30 days.
(i) Alternative compensation. As an alternative method of
compensation, in counties having a population of less than
500,000, including counties containing only one town, the board
may at its annual meeting, by a two−thirds vote of the members
entitled to a seat, fix the compensation of the supervisors to be next
elected at an annual salary for all services for the county including
all committee services, except the per diem allowance for services
in acquiring highway rights−of−way set forth in s. 84.09 (4). The
board may, in like manner, allow additional salary for the members of the highway committee and for the chairperson of the
board. In addition to the salary, the supervisors shall receive mileage as provided in par. (g) for each day’s attendance at board meet-

(j) Supplementary compensation. The board, in establishing
an annual salary, may enact an ordinance providing for a per diem
for all committee meetings attended in excess of 40 committee
and board meetings.
(4) COMPATIBILITY. No county officer or employee is eligible
for election or appointment to the office of supervisor, but a supervisor may also be a member of a committee, board or commission
appointed by the county executive or county administrator or
appointed or created by the county board, a town board, a mosquito control district, the common council of his or her city, the
board of trustees of his or her village or the board of trustees of a
county institution appointed under s. 46.18.
(5) COUNTIES HAVING ONLY ONE TOWN. In all counties containing one town only, the board shall consist of the members of the
town board and one supervisor from every village. A supervisor
from a village shall be elected at the time the other village officers
are elected. A majority of the members shall constitute a quorum
of the county board. Each supervisor shall receive compensation
and mileage as provided in sub. (3) (f) and (g). The chairperson
of the board elected under s. 59.12 (1) may be, but need not be, the
same person who is elected chairperson of the town board under
s. 60.21 (3) (a).
(6) ENFORCEMENT OF DIVISION REQUIREMENT. If a county fails
to comply with sub. (2) (a) or (3) (b), any municipality located in
whole or in part within the county or any elector of the county may
submit to the circuit court for the county within 14 days from the
expiration of either 60−day period under sub. (2) (a) or (3) (b) a
proposed tentative or final plan for creation of supervisory districts in compliance with this section. If the court finds that the
existing division of the county into supervisory districts fails to
comply with this section, it shall review the plan submitted by the
petitioner and after reasonable notice to the county may promulgate the plan, or any other plan in compliance with this section, as
a temporary supervisory district plan until superseded by a districting plan adopted by the board in compliance with this section.

(c) Any board may, by ordinance, provide that the cutoff reception time for the filing and recording of documents shall be
advanced by one hour in any official business day during which
time the register of deeds office is open to the public, in order to
complete the processing, recording, and indexing to conform to
the day of reception. Any register of deeds may provide in his or
her notice under s. 19.34 (1) that requests for inspection or copying of the records of his or her office may be made only during a
specified period of not less than 35 hours per week. For all other
purposes, the register of deeds office shall remain open to the public during usual business hours.
(d) Any register of deeds who in good faith makes an erroneous
determination as to the accessibility of a portion of a record, to
members of the public under s. 19.36 (6), is not subject to any penalty for denial of access to the record under s. 19.37 (4).

NOTE: 2003 Wis. Act 47, which affects this section, contains extensive
explanatory notes.
Section 59.14, [now 59.20 (3)] is a legislative declaration granting those persons
who come under its coverage an absolute right of inspection subject only to reasonable administrative regulations. State ex rel. Bilder v. Town of Delavan, 112 Wis. 2d
539, 334 N.W.2d 252 (1983).
A newspaper had the right to intervene to protect its right to examine sealed court
files. State ex rel. Bilder v. Town of Delavan, 112 Wis. 2d 539, 334 N.W.2d 252
(1983).
Courts must apply the open records balancing test to questions involving disclosure of court records. Under the test, the party seeking nondisclosure must show that
public interests favoring secrecy outweigh those favoring disclosure. C. L. v. Edson,
140 Wis. 2d 168, 409 N.W.2d 417 (Ct. App. 1987).
The appointment of a county surveyor under this section is constitutional. Ripley
v. Brown, 143 Wis. 2d 686, 422 N.W.2d 608 (1988).
“Books and papers required to be kept” are not all those that the custodian is
obliged merely to retain or preserve; rather they are only those that the custodian is
obliged to maintain or engender. The requester has the burden of showing the author-

ity requiring that the record be maintained or engendered. State ex rel. Schultz v.
Bruendl, 168 Wis. 2d 101, 483 N.W.2d 238 (Ct. App. 1992).
To overcome the legislatively mandated policy favoring open records and to persuade the circuit court to exercise its inherent authority, the party seeking to close
court records bears the burden of demonstrating, with particularity, that the administration of justice requires that the records be closed. Once documents are filed in the
court they become a judicial record subject to the access accorded such records. Even
the possibility that the parties may attempt to rescind a settlement agreement if the
record is unsealed does not outweigh the public’s right to inspect public documents.
There are no requirements of a showing of harm to the public or that the inquiry must
have indicia of public concern. Krier v. EOG Environmental, Inc. 2005 WI App 256,
288 Wis. 2d 623, 707 N.W.2d 915, 04−2670.
After a transcript of a court proceedings is filed with the clerk of court, any person
may examine or copy the transcript. 68 Atty. Gen. 313.
A sheriff’s criminal investigation files are not covered by a blanket exemption
from the public records law. Denial of access may be justified on a case−by−case
basis. 77 Atty. Gen. 42.

59.21 Official oaths and bonds. (1) Each county officer
named in this chapter, except county supervisors, shall execute
and file an official bond and take and file the official oath within
20 days after receiving official notice of election or appointment,

the board may provide a schedule or blanket bond that includes
any or all of these officials, except county supervisors. Every
county supervisor shall take and file the official oath within 20
days after receiving official notice of election or appointment, or
if not officially notified, within 20 days after the commencement
of the term for which he or she is elected or appointed. Every deputy appointed by any such officer shall take and file the official

and the faithful, correct and impartial performance of the register’s duties, and in addition thereto a bond of not less than $10,000,
with 2 or more sureties, conditioned for the faithful accounting for
and paying over to the treasurer all moneys which may come into

(h) Surveyor, $5,000.
(i) County abstractor, $5,000, with 2 or more sureties.

of the board who shall report in writing their action on all bonds.
(3) Each bond described in sub. (1) shall be guaranteed by the

59.26 Sheriff; undersheriff; deputies. (1) Within 10 days
after entering upon the duties of the office of sheriff, the sheriff
shall appoint some proper person, who is a resident of the county,
undersheriff. However, in counties with a population of 500,000
or more the appointment of an undersheriff is optional. In counties
where the sheriff’s department is under civil service, the sheriff,
in conformity with county ordinance, may, at the request of the

affected deputy, grant a leave of absence to a deputy sheriff who
the sheriff has appointed undersheriff, or to any other position in
the sheriff’s department, upon the deputy’s acceptance of the
appointment. Any deputy in a county under civil service granted
leave of absence under this subsection upon completion of the
appointive position shall immediately be returned to the position
of deputy sheriff and shall continue therein without loss of any
rights under the civil service law. The sheriff, however, may not
grant such leave of absence to a deputy sheriff until the sheriff first
secures the consent of the board by resolution duly adopted by the
board. Within 10 days after entering upon the duties of the office
of sheriff, the sheriff shall also appoint, subject to sub. (10), deputy sheriffs for the county as follows:
(a) One for each city and village in the county that has 1,000
or more inhabitants.
(b) One for each assembly district in the county, except the district in which the undersheriff resides, which contains a village
having less than 1,000 inhabitants and does not contain a city or
village having more than 1,000 inhabitants.
(c) Each deputy shall reside in the city or village for which the
deputy is appointed, or, if appointed for an assembly district, shall
reside in the village in such district.
(2) Subject to sub. (10), the sheriff may appoint as many other
deputies as the sheriff considers proper.
(3) Subject to sub. (10), the sheriff may fill vacancies in the
office of any such appointee, and he or she may appoint a person
to take the place of any undersheriff or deputy who becomes incapable of executing the duties of that office.
(4) A person who is appointed undersheriff or deputy for a
regular term or to fill a vacancy or otherwise shall hold office during the pleasure of the sheriff.
(5) The sheriff or the undersheriff may also depute in writing
other persons to perform particular acts.
(6) Every appointment of an undersheriff or deputy, except
deputations to perform a particular act, and every revocation of
such appointment shall be in writing and be filed and recorded in
the office of the clerk of the circuit court.
(7) In case of a vacancy in the office of sheriff, the undersheriff
shall in all things and with like liabilities and penalties execute the
duties of the office of sheriff until the vacancy is filled as provided
by law.
(8) (a) In any county with a population of less than 500,000,
the board, by ordinance, may fix the number of deputy sheriffs to
be appointed in that county at not less than that number required
by sub. (1) (a) and (b) and may set the salary of those deputies.
Subject to sub. (10), the board may provide by ordinance that deputy sheriff positions be filled by appointment by the sheriff from
a list of all persons with the 3 highest scores for each position
based on a competitive examination. Such competitive examinations may be by a county civil service commission or by the division of merit recruitment and selection in the office of state
employment relations at the option of the board and it shall so provide by ordinance. The division of merit recruitment and selection
in the office of state employment relations shall, upon request of
the board, conduct such examination according to the methods
used in examinations for the state civil service and shall certify an
eligible list of the names of all persons with the 3 highest scores
on that examination for each position to the sheriff of that county
who shall, subject to sub. (10), make an appointment from that list
to fill the position within 10 days after he or she receives the eligible list. The county for which such examination is conducted shall
pay the cost of that examination. If a civil service commission is
decided upon for the selection of deputy sheriffs, then ss. 63.01 to
63.17 shall apply so far as consistent with this subsection, except
ss. 63.03, 63.04 and 63.15 and except the provision governing
minimum compensation of the commissioners. The ordinance or
an amending ordinance may provide for employee grievance procedures and disciplinary actions, for hours of work, for tours of
duty according to seniority and for other administrative regula-

tions. Any board provision consistent with this paragraph and
existing on July 25, 1951, is validated. If the sheriff fills a deputy
sheriff position by promotion, the sheriff shall, subject to sub.
(10), make the appointment to the position from a list of 3 deputy
sheriffs who receive the highest scores in a competitive examination. Such competitive examinations may be by a county civil service commission or by the division of merit recruitment and selection in the office of state employment relations at the option of the
board and it shall so provide by ordinance.
(b) 1. The persons appointed shall hold the office of deputy
sheriff on good behavior. In any county operating under this subsection, but not under s. 59.52 (8), whenever the sheriff or undersheriff or a majority of the members of a civil service commission
for the selection of deputy sheriffs believes that a deputy has acted
so as to show the deputy to be incompetent to perform the duties
of deputy sheriff or to have merited suspension, demotion or dismissal, the sheriff, undersheriff or civil service commission shall
report in writing to the grievance committee setting forth specifically the complaint against the deputy, and, when the party filing
the complaint is a sheriff or undersheriff, may suspend or demote
the officer at the time such complaint is filed. The grievance committee shall be appointed in the same manner and at the same time
as standing committees of the board are appointed. The committee may be made up of members of the board or other electors of
the county, or both. Such members shall be paid in the same manner as members of other board committees.
2. The grievance committee shall immediately notify the
accused officer of the filing of the charges and on request furnish
the accused officer with a copy of the same.
3. The grievance committee shall, if the officer requests a
hearing, appoint a time and place for the hearing of the charges,
the time to be within 3 weeks after the filing of such request for
a hearing and the committee shall notify the sheriff or undersheriff
or the members of the civil service commission, whichever filed
the complaint with the committee, and the accused of the time and
place of such hearing. If the accused officer makes no request to
the grievance committee, then the committee may take whatever
action it considers justifiable on the basis of the charges filed and
shall issue an order in writing as provided in subd. 5. The committee may take testimony at the hearing, and any testimony taken
shall be transcribed. The chairperson of the committee shall issue
subpoenas for the attendance of such witnesses as may be
requested by the accused.
4. At the hearing the chairperson of the committee may maintain order and enforce obedience to the chairperson’s lawful
requirements. If a person at the hearing acts in a disorderly manner and persists after notice from the chairperson, the chairperson
may order the person to leave the hearing. If the order is refused
the chairperson may order the sheriff or other person to take the
disorderly person into custody until the hearing is adjourned for
that day.
5. At the termination of the hearing the grievance committee
shall determine in writing whether or not the charge is well−
founded and shall take such action by way of suspension, demotion, discharge or reinstatement as it considers requisite and
proper under the circumstances and file the same with the secretary of the committee.
5m. No deputy may be suspended, demoted or discharged by
the grievance committee under subd. 3. or 5., based on charges
filed by the sheriff, undersheriff or a majority of the members of
the civil service commission for the selection of deputies unless
the committee determines whether there is just cause, as described
in this subdivision, to sustain the charges. In making its determination, the committee shall apply the following standards, to
the extent applicable:
a. Whether the deputy could reasonably be expected to have
had knowledge of the probable consequences of the alleged conduct.

b. Whether the rule or order that the deputy allegedly violated
is reasonable.
c. Whether the sheriff, before filing the charge against the
deputy, made a reasonable effort to discover whether the deputy
did in fact violate a rule or order.
d. Whether the effort described under subd. 5m. c. was fair
and objective.
e. Whether the sheriff discovered substantial evidence that
the deputy violated the rule or order as described in the charges
filed against the deputy.
f. Whether the sheriff is applying the rule or order fairly and
without discrimination to the deputy.
g. Whether the proposed discipline reasonably relates to the
seriousness of the alleged violation and to the deputy’s record of
service with the sheriff’s department.
6. The accused may appeal from the order to the circuit court
by serving written notice of the appeal on the secretary of the committee within 10 days after the order is filed. Within 5 days after
receiving written notice of the appeal, the board shall certify to the
clerk of the circuit court the record of the proceedings, including
all documents, testimony and minutes. The action shall then be
at issue and shall have precedence over any other cause of a different nature pending in the court, which shall always be open to the
trial thereof. The court shall upon application of the accused or
of the board fix a date of trial, which shall not be later than 15 days
after such application except by agreement. The trial shall be by
the court and upon the return of the board, except that the court
may require further return or the taking and return of further evidence by the board. The question to be determined by the court
shall be: “Upon the evidence is there just cause, as described
under subd. 5m., to sustain the charges against the accused?” No
costs shall be allowed either party and the clerk’s fees shall be paid
by the county. If the order of the committee is reversed, the
accused shall be forthwith reinstated and entitled to pay as though
in continuous service. If the order of the committee is sustained
it shall be final and conclusive.
(c) The board of any county enacting the ordinance provided
for in this subsection may provide that any deputy sheriff acting
as such at the time of the enactment shall be eligible to such
appointment without examination.
(cm) Any board may by a majority vote establish, by ordinance
in connection with the enactment of an ordinance providing for
civil service selection and tenure of deputy sheriffs under pars. (a)
and (b) or by amendment to such an ordinance previously enacted,
a traffic division of the sheriff’s department and fix the number of
deputy sheriffs as traffic patrolmen and other employees in said
division in which case s. 83.016 shall become inoperative as to
that county. The board in such ordinance shall further provide that
the personnel in such traffic division of the sheriff’s department
shall be appointed and hold their positions in the manner and
under the conditions set forth in pars. (a) and (b). The board may
also provide that traffic patrolmen who have been appointed under
s. 83.016 and who are employed by the county at the time of the
enactment of the ordinance under this subsection establishing a
traffic division in the sheriff’s department and providing civil service therefor shall be appointed to positions in such traffic division
without examination.
(d) Enactment of the ordinances provided for by this subsection shall not preclude the board from thereafter amending or
repealing such ordinances, but such amendment or repeal shall not
be effective unless voted by the affirmative vote of three−fourths
of the members−elect of such board. The civil service provisions
of this section shall apply only to such deputies or traffic patrolmen who are regularly employed by the county or sheriff and shall
not apply to honorary deputies. Notwithstanding the provisions
of this subsection the board may enact a civil service ordinance for
county employees under s. 59.52 (8) which civil service ordinance
may include deputy sheriffs or traffic patrolmen, or both.

(9) (a) A deputy sheriff in any county may not be suspended
or dismissed under sub. (8) or s. 59.52 (8) or 63.10 without pay or
benefits, for any action taken that is within the scope of the deputy’s employment, until the matter that is the subject of the suspension or dismissal is disposed of by the grievance committee or
civil service commission or the time for appeal of that matter
passes without an appeal being made.
(b) An ordinance of any county or a collective bargaining
agreement may not diminish or abridge a right of a deputy sheriff
that is granted under par. (a). An ordinance of such a county or a
collective bargaining agreement may supplement and expand
such a right in a manner that is not inconsistent with par. (a).
(c) If the matter that is the subject of the suspension or dismissal is decided adversely to the deputy sheriff by the grievance
committee or the civil service commission, the time for appeal
passes without an appeal being made or the deputy’s appeal to the
circuit court is decided adversely to the deputy, all pay and benefits received by the deputy sheriff between the time of his or her
suspension or dismissal and the latest of an adverse ruling by the

passes shall be returned to the county.

enforcement services to a city or village under ss. 59.03 (2) (e) and
62.13 (2s) and if the sheriff appoints additional deputies under
sub. (2) to provide the services, the sheriff shall, to the greatest
extent possible, fill the additional deputy positions from the ranks
of former police officers who lost their positions when their
department was abolished under s. 62.13 (2s) (a). With regard to
each contract that is entered into under s. 59.03 (2) (e), this provision does not apply on or after the first day of the 25th month
beginning after the contract takes effect in the county.
(b) Paragraph (a) applies only to the extent that it is not inconsistent with any collective bargaining agreement that is in effect
between a county and its employees.

Upon reinstatement of an unreasonably suspended deputy sheriff, the amount of
pay due is to be reduced by amounts earned in other employment during the period
of suspension. Klingler & Schilling v. Baird, 56 Wis. 2d 460, 202 N.W.2d 31 (1972).
The burden of establishing a lack of reasonable and diligent efforts by suspended
deputy sheriffs to seek other employment and the availability of employment is on
the employer. Schilling & Klingler v. Baird, 65 Wis. 2d 394, 222 N.W.2d 666 (1974).
Under s. 59.21 [now s. 59.26] (8) (b) deputies have civil service protections and
tenure beyond their initial term of appointment under sub. (4) and also have protections under collective bargaining agreements not in conflict with the statutes. Heitkemper v. Wirsing, 194 Wis. 2d 182, 533 N.W.2d 770 (1995). See also Brown County
Sheriff Dept. v. Employees Ass’n, 194 Wis. 2d 266, 533 N.W.2d 766 (1995).
Section 165.85 (4) (b) governs the terms of employment of a probationary sheriff’s
deputy so that the discipline procedures under s. 59.21 (8) (b) (now s. 59.26 (8) (b))
do not apply and an applicable collective bargaining agreement controls. Hussey v.
Outagamie County, 201 Wis. 2d 14, 548 N.W.2d 848 (Ct. App. 1996), 95−2948.
The court of appeals lacks jurisdiction to hear an appeal of a circuit court order

App. 1998), 97−1621.
Under the Wisconsin constitution, the sheriff has certain powers and prerogatives
derived from the common law that cannot be limited by collective bargaining agreements. If a duty is one of those immemorial principal and important duties that characterized the office of sheriff at common law, the sheriff may choose the ways and
means of performing the duty and cannot be limited by a collective bargaining agreement. Internal management and administrative duties fall within the “mundane and
commonplace” duties not preserved at common law. Dunn County v. Wisconsin
Employment Relations Commission, 2006 WI App 120, 293 Wis. 2d 637, 718
N.W.2d 138, 05−1917.
A collective bargaining agreement provision confining the powers of deputies
serving as court security officers to the county judicial center and giving the clerk of
courts priority over the sheriff in the scheduling, directing, and supervision of those
deputies interferes with the sheriff’s duty of attendance on the court, which is a duty
preserved for the sheriff by the constitution. Dunn County v. Wisconsin Employment
Relations Commission, 2006 WI App 120, ___ Wis. 2d ___, _718N.W.2d 138,
05−1917.
When a county has a civil service plan for deputy sheriffs, transfers may result in
promotion, and such vacancies should be filled by examination and certification of
3 eligibles to the sheriff for appointment. 61 Atty. Gen. 10.
In counties where deputy sheriffs are under civil service under s. 59.21 (8) [now
59.26 (8)], the county board may provide job classifications for deputy sheriff positions that would form the basis of selection of competent personnel who could, on
appointment by the sheriff, be assigned to perform duties on a felony squad on a countywide basis. By reason of s. 59.24 (1) [now s. 59.28 (1)], or by means of a posse
comitatus, the sheriff could on a case−by−case basis assert leadership, direction, and

control over the investigation of a crime in an area that has a police department, and
it is the duty of local police to cooperate. 61 Atty. Gen. 79.
Although a deputy sheriff must be a resident of the county for which appointed, a
deputy may serve in an adjacent county upon a request for mutual assistance. 62 Atty.
Gen. 250.

The payment to a county under s. 59.42 (2) [now 59.40 (3) (b)] of interest earned

Brongman v. Douglas County, 164 Wis. 2d 718, 476 N.W.2d 611 (Ct. App. 1991).
The express powers to appoint and discharge deputies under this section are separate from those of the county and are not subject to a collective bargaining agreement
entered into by the county. Crawford County v. WERC, 177 Wis. 2d 66, 501 N.W.2d
836 (Ct. App. 1993).
Crawford County v. WERC is restricted to its facts. Deputized employees, apart
from a chief deputy, are exempt from the terms of collective bargaining agreements
only to the extent that they are managerial or supervisory employees. Eau Claire

For a paper to be filed, it must be properly deposited with the clerk under s. 59.40

Sub. (3) (b) specifically directs that interest earned on a deposited award shall
accrue to the benefit of the county’s general fund. The trial court lacks inherent or
equitable authority to order an award transferred from the clerk’s office to a private
money market account. A court’s exercise of equitable authority is only appropriate
when a legally protected right has been invaded. Additionally, a court may not exercise its equitable authority if such exercise would ignore a statutory mandate. HSBC

so conferred upon the corporation counsel and the district attorney
shall be relieved of the responsibility for performing such powers
or duties. Opinions of the corporation counsel on all such matters

shall then be at issue and shall have precedence over any other
cause of a different nature pending in the court, which shall always
be open to the trial thereof. The court shall upon application of the

the accused shall be immediately reinstated and entitled to pay as
though in continuous service. If the order of the board or the commission is sustained, it shall be final and conclusive.

may delegate its power in regard to current accounts, claims,
demands or causes of action against the county to a standing committee if the amount does not exceed $10,000. Instead of delegating its power under this paragraph to a standing committee, the

rescinded, whichever occurs first.
(b) Delegate its power in regard to any claim, demand or cause
of action not exceeding $500 to the corporation counsel. If the

made over a period of time following the injury and were based
on a moral obligation to such employee.
(14) OPTICAL DISK AND ELECTRONIC STORAGE. (a) Upon
request of any office, department, commission, board or agency
of the county, the board may authorize any county record that is
in the custody of the office, department, commission, board or

(b) Any copy of a county record generated from optical imaging or electronic formatting of an original record is considered an
original record if all of the following conditions are met:
1. The devices used to transform the record to optical disk or
electronic format and to generate a copy of the record from optical
disk or electronic format are ones which accurately reproduce the
content of the original.
2. The optical disk or electronic copy and the copy generated
from optical disk or electronic format comply with the minimum
standards of quality for such copies, as established by the rule of
the department of administration under s. 16.612.
3. The record is arranged, identified and indexed so that any
individual document or component of the record can be located
with the use of proper equipment.
4. The legal custodian of the record executes a statement of
intent and purpose describing the record to be transferred to optical disk or electronic format and the disposition of the original
record, and executes a certificate verifying that the record was
received or created and transferred to optical disk or electronic
format in the normal course of business and that the statement of
intent and purpose is properly recorded in his or her office.
(c) The statement of intent and purpose executed under par. (b)
4. is presumptive evidence of compliance with all conditions and
standards prescribed under par. (b).
(d) A copy of a record generated from an original record stored
on an optical disk or in electronic format which conforms with the
standards prescribed under par. (b) shall be taken as and stand in
lieu of and have all of the effect of the original record and shall be
admissible in evidence in all courts and all other tribunals or agencies, administrative or otherwise, in all cases where the original
document is admissible. A transcript, exemplification or certified
copy of such a record so generated, for the purposes specified in
this paragraph, is deemed to be a transcript, exemplification or
certified copy of the original. An enlarged copy of any record so
generated, made in accordance with the standards prescribed
under par. (b) and certified by the custodian as provided in s.
889.18 (2), has the same effect as an actual−size copy.
(15) PRINTING IN LOCAL TAX ROLLS, ETC. The board may provide for the printing in assessment rolls and tax rolls and on data
cards for local municipal officials, the descriptions of properties
and the names of the owners thereof, but no municipality shall be

appropriate money and grant assistance to the school district but
the assistance shall be used solely to finance the purchase of land

A town has initial authority to name town roads under s. 82.03 (7). However, the
town’s authority is subject to the county’s discretionary authority under sub. (4) to
establish a road naming and numbering system for the specific purpose of aiding in
fire protection, emergency services, and civil defense. A county may cooperate with
a town regarding road name changes, but ultimately a county has authority to implement name changes, even if a town does not consent, when the name changes are
made under s. 59.54 (4). Liberty Grove Town Board v. Door County Board of Supervisors, 2005 WI App 166, 284 Wis. 2d 814, 702 N.W.2d 33, 04−2358.
A carefully drawn county ordinance prohibiting the sale of “disposable” bottles
and cans would not, on its face, exceed the police power granted in s. 59.07 (64) [now
s. 59.54 (6)], and would not constitute an unreasonable burden on interstate commerce, although a careful consideration of relevant factors may result in a finding of
unreasonableness on both counts. 60 Atty. Gen. 158.
The authority of county officials to offer rewards for the arrest or conviction of persons violating the criminal law is limited to the circumstances set forth in s. 59.25 (2)

A local emergency planning committee created by a county board pursuant to s.
59.07 (146) [now s. 59.54 (8)] is in many respects treated like other county committees. The county board has authority to appropriate funds for the committee and the
county’s relationship to the committee is the same as the county’s relationship to other
county bodies created under this section, with the exception that the county must be
consistent with the authority exercised by the state emergency response commission.
The county corporation counsel should provide legal advice and assistance to a
LEPC. If a LEPC or its members are sued, the attorney general represents them, and
the state would pay the judgment if the requirements of s. 895.46 have been satisfied.

loss or reduction of income and franchise taxes, real estate and
other local taxes, and thereby causing an increase in unemployment; that such conditions now exist in certain areas of the state
and may well arise in other areas; that economic insecurity due to
unemployment is a serious menace to the general welfare of not
only the people of the affected areas but of the people of the entire
state; that such unemployment results in obligations to grant public assistance and in the payment of unemployment insurance; that
the absence of new economic opportunities has caused workers
and their families to migrate elsewhere to find work and establish
homes, which has resulted in a reduction of the tax base of counties, cities and other local governmental jurisdictions impairing

year currently ending, and the anticipated revenues for the fiscal
year next succeeding including any surplus from the preceding
fiscal year not otherwise appropriated under sub. (9).
(c) The anticipated revenues for the fiscal year next succeeding
shall be equal in amount to the recommended appropriations.
(d) The executive’s or administrator’s budget shall be accompanied by a message prepared by the county executive or county

appropriations and anticipated revenues for the ensuing year.

of 500,000 or more. Any such county shall publish, in the same
manner as the summary that may be published under sub. (7), a
summary that includes all of the following:
(a) The total amount of budgeted expenditures for the current
year.
(b) The proposed amount of total expenditures and the percentage change compared to the amount in par. (a).
(c) The property tax levy for the current year.
(d) The proposed property tax levy and the percentage change
compared to the amount in par. (c).
(8) TRANSFERS OF APPROPRIATIONS. (a) At the request of the
head of any department, and after receiving the recommendation
of the county executive or county administrator, the finance committee may, at any time during the fiscal year, transfer any unencumbered appropriation balance or portion thereof between principal objects of expenditures within a department; but no transfers
shall be made of appropriations originating from bond funds
unless the purpose for which the bonds were issued has been fulfilled or abandoned. If the county executive or county administrator fails to make a recommendation within 10 days after the submission of a request for transfer, the finance committee may act
upon the request without his or her recommendation. If more than
one department is under the jurisdiction of the same board or commission or under the same general management, the group of
departments may be considered as though they were a single unit
with respect to transfers of appropriations within the group.
(b) Except as provided under sub. (9), the board, upon the recommendation of the finance committee and by resolution adopted
by a majority of the members present and voting at any meeting,
may transfer any unencumbered appropriation balance or portion
thereof from one department or account to another at any time during the following:
1. The first 9 months of the fiscal year, if another unit of government fails to appropriate moneys which the board anticipated
and appropriated to that department or account when the board
adopted the budget. The amount of money transferred under this
subdivision may not exceed the amount of money which that other
unit of government fails to appropriate.
2. The last 3 months of the fiscal year.
(c) Paragraph (b) does not apply to an appropriation which is
irrepealable by law.
(9) APPROPRIATIONS, SUPPLEMENTAL AND EMERGENCY. (a) At
the request of the head of any department and after review and recommendation by the finance committee, the board, by resolution
adopted by a vote of two−thirds of the members−elect of the
board, may transfer from the contingency appropriation into any
other appropriation or create a new appropriation for any legal
county purpose if any unforeseen condition requires an appropriation of funds during the budget year. The board may make supplemental appropriations for the year up to the amount of the additional revenue and surplus so certified to meet a public emergency
affecting life, health, property or the public welfare, if the director
certifies that any of the following funds are available for appropriation:
1. Revenues that are received from sources not anticipated in
the budget that year.
2. Revenues that are received that exceed budget estimates.
3. Unappropriated surplus funds from the preceding fiscal
year.
(b) An appropriation under par. (a) may be made only by resolution adopted by a vote of two−thirds of the members−elect of the
board. To the extent that unappropriated funds or realized revenues in excess of anticipated revenues are unavailable to meet the
emergency, the board may, by resolution adopted by three−fourths
of the members−elect, issue tax anticipation notes under s. 67.12.
Notice of intent to make supplemental appropriations from revenues or surplus or to issue tax anticipation notes shall be published
as a class 1 notice, under ch. 985, in the 2 daily newspapers having

the largest circulation in the county, not less than 6 days prior to
the hearings before the finance committee of the board in regard
to these matters.
(10) ORDINANCE INCREASING SALARIES; NEW POSITIONS; WHEN
EFFECTIVE. No ordinance or resolution authorizing the creation of
new or additional positions or increasing salaries shall become
effective in any fiscal year until an appropriation of funds for such
purpose is made or the ordinance or resolution contains a provision for the transfer of funds if required. All such ordinances or
resolutions which do not require an appropriation or transfer of
funds shall state therein the specific account or accounts in which
funds are available for such purposes.
(11) LAPSE OF APPROPRIATIONS. Every appropriation excepting an appropriation for a capital expenditure, or a major repair,
shall lapse at the close of the fiscal year to the extent that it has not
been expended or encumbered. An appropriation for a capital
expenditure or a major repair shall continue in force until the purpose for which it was made has been accomplished or abandoned.
The purpose of such appropriation for any capital expenditure or
a major repair shall be considered abandoned if 3 years pass without any expenditure from, or encumbrance of, the appropriation
concerned.
(12) PAYMENTS AND OBLIGATIONS PROHIBITED; CERTIFICATIONS;
PENALTIES. No payment may be authorized or made and no obligation incurred against the county unless the county has sufficient
appropriations for payment. No payment may be made or obligation incurred against an appropriation unless the director first certifies that a sufficient unencumbered balance is or will be available
in the appropriation to make the payment or to meet the obligation
when it becomes due and payable. An obligation incurred and an
authorization of payment in violation of this subsection is void.
A county officer who knowingly violates this subsection is jointly
and severally liable to the county for the full amount paid. A
county employee who knowingly violates this subsection may be
removed for cause. This subsection does not prohibit contracting
for capital improvements being financed wholly or partly by the
issuance of bonds or prevent the making of a contract or lease providing for the payment of funds at a time beyond the end of the fiscal year in which the contract or lease is made. The board shall
make or approve by resolution each contract, lease or other obligation requiring the payment of funds from the appropriations of a
later fiscal year or of more than one fiscal year.
(13) TAX STABILIZATION FUND. (a) Notwithstanding sub. (1),
only a county with a population of at least 500,000 may create a
tax stabilization fund under this subsection.
(b) The board of a county described in par. (a) may enact an
ordinance creating a tax stabilization fund in the county. If such
fund is created under this paragraph, the following amounts, if
positive, shall be deposited into the tax stabilization fund:
1. The amount determined by subtracting the estimated nonproperty tax revenues collected by the county in the prior year
from the corresponding actual receipts for the prior year, as determined by the comptroller not later than April 15 of each year.
2. The amount determined by subtracting total adjusted operating budget appropriations for the prior year from total expenditures, commitments, and reserves for the prior year, as determined
by the comptroller not later than April 15 of each year.
3. Any general surplus balance as of December 31 of the prior
year, as determined by the comptroller not later than April 15 of
each year.
4. Any amounts included in the county’s property tax levy
that are designated for deposit in the fund.
(c) Subject to par. (d), the board may withdraw amounts from
the tax stabilization fund, by a three−quarters vote of the members−elect, or by a majority vote of the members−elect if the
county’s total levy rate, as defined in s. 59.605 (1) (g), is projected
by the board to increase by more than 3% in the current fiscal year
and the withdrawn funds would prevent an increase of more than
3%.

law, the operating levy rate for the .... (name of county), for the tax to be imposed
for the year .... (year), is limited to $.... per $1,000 of equalized value. Notwithstanding the operating levy rate limit, shall the .... (name of county) be allowed

whichever is greater, shall be the limit for the specified number of
years or for an indefinite period for purposes of this section.
(c) 1. If a county transfers to another governmental unit
responsibility for providing any service that the county provided
in the preceding year, the levy rate limit otherwise applicable
under this section to the county in the current year is decreased to
reflect the cost that the county would have incurred to provide that
service, as determined by the department of revenue.
2. If a county increases the services that it provides by adding
responsibility for providing a service transferred to it from another
governmental unit in any year, the levy rate limit otherwise applicable under this section to the county in the current year is
increased to reflect the cost of that service, as determined by the
department of revenue.

2. a. The clerk shall deliver the statement filed under subd.

as the items charged in the statement are approved by the district
attorney the statement shall be prima facie evidence of the claims
of the persons named in the statement.
b. The board shall examine the statement, allow the fees that

to each person named therein. If any person in whose favor any
order is drawn under this subdivision shall not call for the fees
within 2 years from the time the claim is allowed, the person’s
right to any compensation for services shall be considered waived
and the board shall cancel the order.

(f) Circuit and supplemental court commissioners. The board

fees or for witness, interpreter, attorney, guardian ad litem or transcript fees which are on the part of the state or of the defendant in
any action or proceeding before a judge of the circuit court or
before the medical examiner of the county, the procedure to secure
payment of the fees shall be as follows:
1. The clerk of the respective court, the register of probate, or

an order directing the treasurer to make payment of the fee. The
order shall state the name of the person to whom payable, the time

with the title of the action in which the person served, the capacity
in which the person served and the date or dates of service, or in

be required to endorse it prior to receiving payment and thereby
indicate that he or she is the person mentioned in the certificate or
order, that the number of miles traveled and the capacity in which
he or she served and the work which he or she performed is true
and correct as stated and that he or she has not at any time received
any compensation therefor.
3. Upon presentation of the certificate or order properly
signed and endorsed, the treasurer shall pay to the holder, upon
surrender of the certificate or order, the amount set forth in the certificate or order, and the order or certificate shall in all other
respects be handled by the treasurer in the same manner as all
other county orders drawn upon him or her are handled.
4. Any judge or circuit or supplemental court commissioner,
juror, witness, interpreter, attorney, guardian ad litem or recipient
of transcript fees who makes, signs or endorses any such certificate or order which is untrue in respect to anything material, which
he or she knows to be false, or which he or she does not have good
reason to believe is true, shall be punished as provided in s.
946.12.
(2) SPECIAL COUNTIES; CLASSIFICATION OF CLAIMS. In counties
with a population of more than 300,000, the county auditor shall
classify all such claims according to the budgetary funds provided
for in s. 59.60, against which they are chargeable, before such
claims are laid before such board. The county auditor shall then
submit with the claims chargeable against each fund, a statement
of the balance in such fund against which no county orders have
been issued. If such balance in any fund is less than the total of
the claims chargeable against such fund, the auditor shall call the
attention of the board to that fact, and such board shall not issue
county orders in excess of such balance without previously appropriating to such fund an additional sum at least sufficient to cover
such orders. If any claims are for a purpose for which no specific
appropriation has been made in the budget, such claims shall be
considered as chargeable against the contingent fund. When the
county auditor countersigns any order on the treasurer for the payment of a claim allowed the auditor shall charge such order against
the fund appropriated for that purpose.
(3) ACTION ON CLAIMS BY BOARD. The clerk shall, on the first
day of any meeting of the board, lay before said board all such
claims, statements of which have been filed in the clerk’s office
since the last meeting of such board, with a schedule of the same
showing the amount thereof and the order in which the same were
filed; and the board shall act upon all such claims before the
adjournment of the next annual session of such board after such
statements were filed with the clerk, and shall examine and allow
or disallow the same in whole or in part unless withdrawn by leave
of the board; and in case of the disallowance of a part of an account
or other claim composed of separate items the board shall designate particularly each item disallowed; and when the amount

favor of the claimant for the amount so allowed, but no order
except for the per diem and mileage of the members of the board
may be drawn in favor of any claimant within 5 days after the
allowance of his or her claim. Any person whose claim has been
allowed in part may receive the order drawn for the part so allowed
without prejudice to his or her right to appeal as to the part disallowed. No board may issue a greater amount of orders, scrip and
certificates of indebtedness than the amount of the county taxes
levied in the county for that year. The board may authorize the
issuance of orders, scrip or certificates of indebtedness at a rate of
interest specified thereon, but not to exceed 6% per year; except
that the orders, scrip and certificates of indebtedness shall bear no
interest if paid and payable within one month from date of
issuance, and shall bear no interest after date of publication of
redemption notice as provided in this paragraph. The treasurer
may publish a class 1 notice, under ch. 985, that the county will
redeem certain outstanding orders, scrip or certificates, which
notice shall specify the particular orders, scrip or certificates, or
series thereof, then redeemable.
(b) Disbursements on. In all counties with a population of less
than 300,000, all disbursements from the county treasury shall be
made by the treasurer upon the written order of the clerk after
proper vouchers have been filed in the office of the clerk; and in
all cases where the statutes provide for payment by the treasurer
without an order of the clerk, it shall be the duty of the clerk to
draw and deliver to the treasurer an order for payment before or
at the time when the payment is required to be made by the treasurer. The provisions of this paragraph shall apply to all special
and general provisions of the statutes relative to the disbursement
of money from the county treasury.
(c) Special counties; countersigned by auditor. In all counties
with a population of 300,000 or more all orders and warrants
drawn upon or against county funds shall be countersigned by the
county auditor; and the treasurer of the county shall make no payments of county funds for any purpose unless the order, warrant,
certificate, direction or authority given the treasurer for the payment is countersigned by the county auditor. This provision
requiring the countersigning by the auditor shall apply to all laws
and statutes, special and general, relative to the payment of county
funds by the treasurer except certificates or orders issued for the
payment of juror, witness, interpreter, attorney, guardian ad litem
and transcript fees.
(d) Examination of. The board at its annual session, or more
often if it considers it necessary, shall carefully examine the
county orders returned paid by the treasurer by comparing each
order with the record of orders in the clerk’s office, and cause to
be entered in the record opposite to the entry of each order issued
the date when the order was canceled. The board shall also make
a complete list of the orders so canceled, specifying the number,
date, amount, and person to whom the same is made payable,
except in counties having a population of more than 500,000, the
name of the person to whom the same is made payable may be
omitted, which statement shall be entered at length on the journal
of the board; and immediately after the above requirements are
complied with the orders so canceled shall be destroyed in the
presence of the board.
(e) Uncalled for orders; cancellation; reissue. The clerk shall
prepare and present to the board, at each annual session, a descriptive list giving the amount, date and payee of all county orders
which have remained in the clerk’s office for 2 years uncalled for

by the payee. The board shall cause the orders to be compared
with the list, and when found or made correct the list shall be
entered at length on the journal of the board and filed in the office
of the clerk; all the orders shall be canceled and destroyed. The
person in whose favor the order was drawn, except those issued
under sub. (1) (d), may, upon application to the chairperson of the
board and clerk, made within 6 years from the date of the order,
have a new order issued for the amount of the original, without
interest.

(4m) HISTORIC PRESERVATION. A county, as an exercise of its
zoning and police powers for the purpose of promoting the health,
safety and general welfare of the community and of the state, may
regulate by ordinance any place, structure or object with a special
character, historic interest, aesthetic interest or other significant
value, for the purpose of preserving the place, structure or object
and its significant characteristics. The county may create a landmarks commission to designate historic landmarks and establish
historic districts. The county may regulate all historic landmarks
and all property within each historic district to preserve the historic landmarks and property within the district and the character
of the district.
(5) FORMATION OF ZONING ORDINANCE; PROCEDURE. (a) When
the county zoning agency has completed a draft of a proposed zoning ordinance, it shall hold a public hearing thereon, following
publication in the county of a class 2 notice, under ch. 985. If the
proposed ordinance has the effect of changing the allowable use
of any property, the notice shall include either a map showing the
property affected by the ordinance or a description of the property
affected by the ordinance and a statement that a map may be
obtained from the zoning agency. After such hearing the agency
may make such revisions in the draft as it considers necessary, or
it may submit the draft without revision to the board with recommendations for adoption. Proof of publication of the notice of the
public hearing held by such agency shall be attached to its report
to the board.
(b) When the draft of the ordinance, recommended for enactment by the zoning agency, is received by the board, it may enact

the ordinance as submitted, or reject it, or return it to the agency
with such recommendations as the board may see fit to make. In
the event of such return subsequent procedure by the agency shall
be as if the agency were acting under the original directions.
When enacted, duplicate copies of the ordinance shall be submitted by the clerk by registered mail to each town clerk for consideration by the town board.
(c) A county ordinance enacted under this section shall not be
effective in any town until it has been approved by the town board.
If the town board approves an ordinance enacted by the county
board, under this section, a certified copy of the approving resolution attached to one of the copies of such ordinance submitted to
the town board shall promptly be filed with the county clerk by the
town clerk. The ordinance shall become effective in the town as
of the date of the filing, which filing shall be recorded by the
county clerk in the clerk’s office, reported to the town board and
the county board, and printed in the proceedings of the county
board. The ordinance shall supersede any prior town ordinance
in conflict therewith or which is concerned with zoning, except as
provided by s. 60.62.
(d) The board may by a single ordinance repeal an existing
county zoning ordinance and reenact a comprehensive revision
thereto in accordance with this section. “Comprehensive revision”, in this paragraph, means a complete rewriting of an existing
zoning ordinance which changes numerous zoning provisions and
alters or adds zoning districts. The comprehensive revision may
provide that the existing ordinance shall remain in effect in a town
for a period of up to one year or until the comprehensive revision
is approved by the town board, whichever period is shorter. If the
town board fails to approve the comprehensive revision within a
year neither the existing ordinance nor the comprehensive revision shall be in force in that town. Any repeal and reenactment
prior to November 12, 1965, which would be valid under this
paragraph is hereby validated.
(e) The board may amend an ordinance or change the district
boundaries. The procedure for such amendments or changes is as
follows:
1. A petition for amendment of a county zoning ordinance
may be made by a property owner in the area to be affected by the
amendment, by the town board of any town in which the ordinance
is in effect; by any member of the board or by the agency designated by the board to consider county zoning matters as provided
in sub. (2) (a). The petition shall be filed with the clerk who shall
immediately refer it to the county zoning agency for its consideration, report and recommendations. Immediate notice of the petition shall be sent to the county supervisor of any affected district.
A report of all petitions referred under this paragraph shall be
made to the county board at its next succeeding meeting.
2. Upon receipt of the petition by the agency it shall call a public hearing on the petition. Notice of the time and place of the hearing shall be given by publication in the county of a class 2 notice,
under ch. 985. If an amendment to an ordinance, as described in
the petition, has the effect of changing the allowable use of any
property, the notice shall include either a map showing the property affected by the amendment or a description of the property
affected by the amendment and a statement that a map may be
obtained from the zoning agency. A copy of the notice shall be
mailed by registered mail to the town clerk of each town affected
by the proposed amendment at least 10 days prior to the date of
such hearing. If the petition is for any change in an airport affected
area, as defined in s. 62.23 (6) (am) 1. b., the agency shall mail a
copy of the notice to the owner or operator of the airport bordered
by the airport affected area.
3. Except as provided under subd. 3m., if a town affected by
the proposed amendment disapproves of the proposed amendment, the town board of the town may file a certified copy of the
resolution adopted by the board disapproving of the petition with
the agency before, at or within 10 days after the public hearing.
If the town board of the town affected in the case of an ordinance
relating to the location of boundaries of districts files such a reso-

lution, or the town boards of a majority of the towns affected in the
case of all other amendatory ordinances file such resolutions, the
agency may not recommend approval of the petition without
change, but may only recommend approval with change or recommend disapproval.
3m. A town may extend its time for disapproving any proposed amendment under subd. 3. by 20 days if the town board
adopts a resolution providing for the extension and files a certified
copy of the resolution with the clerk of the county in which the
town is located. The 20−day extension shall remain in effect until
the town board adopts a resolution rescinding the 20−day extension and files a certified copy of the resolution with the clerk of
the county in which the town is located.
4. As soon as possible after the public hearing, the agency
shall act, subject to subd. 3., on the petition either approving, modifying and approving, or disapproving it. If its action is favorable
to granting the requested change or any modification thereof, it
shall cause an ordinance to be drafted effectuating its determination and shall submit the proposed ordinance directly to the board
with its recommendations. If the agency after its public hearing
recommends denial of the petition it shall report its recommendation directly to the board with its reasons for the action. Proof of
publication of the notice of the public hearing held by the agency
and proof of the giving of notice to the town clerk of the hearing
shall be attached to either report. Notification of town board resolutions filed under subd. 3. shall be attached to either such report.
5. Upon receipt of the agency report the board may enact the
ordinance as drafted by the zoning agency or with amendments,
or it may deny the petition for amendment, or it may refuse to deny
the petition as recommended by the agency in which case it shall
rerefer the petition to the agency with directions to draft an ordinance to effectuate the petition and report the ordinance back to
the board which may then enact or reject the ordinance.
5g. If a protest against a proposed amendment is filed with the
clerk at least 24 hours prior to the date of the meeting of the board
at which the report of the zoning agency under subd. 4. is to be
considered, duly signed and acknowledged by the owners of 50%
or more of the area proposed to be altered, or by abutting owners
of over 50% of the total perimeter of the area proposed to be
altered included within 300 feet of the parcel or parcels proposed
to be rezoned, action on the ordinance may be deferred until the
zoning agency has had a reasonable opportunity to ascertain and
report to the board as to the authenticity of the ownership statements. Each signer shall state the amount of area or frontage
owned by that signer and shall include a description of the lands
owned by that signer. If the statements are found to be true, the
ordinance may not be enacted except by the affirmative vote of
three−fourths of the members of the board present and voting. If
the statements are found to be untrue to the extent that the required
frontage or area ownership is not present the protest may be disregarded.
5m. If a proposed amendment under this paragraph would
make any change in an airport affected area, as defined under s.
62.23 (6) (am) 1. b., and the owner or operator of the airport bordered by the airport affected area files a protest against the proposed amendment with the clerk at least 24 hours prior to the date
of the meeting of the board at which the report of the zoning
agency under subd. 4. is to be considered, no ordinance which
makes such a change may be enacted except by the affirmative
vote of two−thirds of the members of the board present and voting.
6. If an amendatory ordinance makes only the change sought
in the petition and if the petition was not disapproved prior to, at
or within 10 days under subd. 3. or 30 days under subd. 3m.,
whichever is applicable, after the public hearing by the town board
of the town affected in the case of an ordinance relating to the location of district boundaries or by the town boards of a majority of
the towns affected in the case of all other amendatory ordinances,
it shall become effective on passage. The county clerk shall record
in the clerk’s office the date on which the ordinance becomes
effective and notify the town clerk of all towns affected by the

ordinance of the effective date and also insert the effective date in
the proceedings of the county board. Any other amendatory ordinance when enacted shall within 7 days thereafter be submitted in
duplicate by the county clerk by registered mail to the town clerk
of each town in which lands affected by the ordinance are located.
If after 40 days from the date of the enactment a majority of the
towns have not filed certified copies of resolutions disapproving
the amendment with the county clerk, or if, within a shorter time
a majority of the towns in which the ordinance is in effect have
filed certified copies of resolutions approving the amendment
with the county clerk, the amendment shall be in effect in all of the
towns affected by the ordinance. Any ordinance relating to the
location of boundaries of districts shall within 7 days after enactment by the county board be transmitted by the county clerk by
registered mail only to the town clerk of the town in which the
lands affected by the change are located and shall become effective 40 days after enactment of the ordinance by the county board
unless such town board prior to such date files a certified copy of
a resolution disapproving of the ordinance with the county clerk.
If such town board approves the ordinance, the ordinance shall
become effective upon the filing of the resolution of the town
board approving the ordinance with the county clerk. The clerk
shall record in the clerk’s office the date on which the ordinance
becomes effective and notify the town clerk of all towns affected
by such ordinance of such effective date and also make such report
to the county board, which report shall be printed in the proceedings of the county board.
7. When any lands previously under the jurisdiction of a
county zoning ordinance have been finally removed from such
jurisdiction by reason of annexation to an incorporated municipality, and after the regulations imposed by the county zoning ordinance have ceased to be effective as provided in sub. (7), the board
may, on the recommendation of its zoning agency, enact amendatory ordinances that remove or delete the annexed lands from the
official zoning map or written descriptions without following any
of the procedures provided in subds. 1. to 6., and such amendatory
ordinances shall become effective upon enactment and publication. A copy of the ordinance shall be forwarded by the clerk to
the clerk of each town in which the lands affected were previously
located. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to nullify or
supersede s. 66.1031.
(f) The county zoning agency shall maintain a list of persons
who submit a written request to receive notice of any proposed
ordinance or amendment that affects the allowable use of the property owned by the person. If the county zoning agency completes
a draft of a proposed zoning ordinance under par. (a) or if the
agency receives a petition under par. (e) 2., the agency shall send
a notice, which contains a copy of the proposed ordinance or petition, to each person on the list whose property, the allowable use
of which, may be affected by the proposed ordinance or amendment. The notice shall be by mail or in any reasonable form that
is agreed to by the person and the agency. The agency may charge
each person on the list who receives a notice a fee that does not
exceed the approximate cost of providing the notice to the person.
An ordinance or amendment that is subject to this paragraph may
take effect even if the agency fails to send the notice that is
required by this paragraph.
(6) OPTIONAL ADDITIONAL PROCEDURES. Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit the zoning agency, the board or
a town board from adopting any procedures in addition to those
prescribed in this section and not in conflict therewith. Such procedures may, but are not required to, provide for public hearings
before the county board. The public hearing provided by sub. (5)
(a) and (e) 2. is deemed to be sufficient for the requirements of due
process whether or not the county board holds a further public
hearing thereafter.
(7) CONTINUED EFFECT OF ORDINANCE. Whenever an area
which has been subject to a county zoning ordinance petitions to
become part of a city or village, the regulations imposed by the
county zoning ordinance shall continue in effect, without change,

and shall be enforced by the city or village until the regulations
have been changed by official action of the governing body of the
city or village, except that in the event an ordinance of annexation
is contested in the courts, the county zoning shall prevail and the
county shall have jurisdiction over the zoning in the area affected
until ultimate determination of the court action.
(8) EXCHANGE OF TAX DEEDED LANDS. When a county acquires
lands by tax deeds, the board may exchange such lands for other
lands in the county for the purpose of promoting the regulation and
restriction of agricultural and forestry lands and may exchange
such lands for other lands for the purpose of creating a park or recreational area.
(9) ZONING OF COUNTY−OWNED LANDS. (a) The county board
may by ordinance zone and rezone lands owned by the county
without necessity of securing the approval of the town boards of
the towns wherein the lands are situated and without following the
procedure outlined in sub. (5), provided that the county board
shall give written notice to the town board of the town wherein the
lands are situated of its intent to so rezone and shall hold a public
hearing on the proposed rezoning ordinance and give notice of the
hearing by posting in 5 public places in the town.
(b) This subsection does not apply to land that is subject to a
town zoning ordinance which is purchased by the county for use
as a solid or hazardous waste disposal facility or hazardous waste
storage or treatment facility, as these terms are defined under s.
289.01.
(10) NONCONFORMING USES. (a) An ordinance enacted under
this section may not prohibit the continuance of the lawful use of
any building, premises, structure, or fixture for any trade or industry for which such building, premises, structure, or fixture is used
at the time that the ordinances take effect, but the alteration of, or
addition to, or repair in excess of 50 percent of its assessed value
of any existing building, premises, structure, or fixture for the purpose of carrying on any prohibited trade or new industry within the
district where such buildings, premises, structures, or fixtures are
located, may be prohibited. The continuance of the nonconforming use of a temporary structure may be prohibited. If the nonconforming use is discontinued for a period of 12 months, any future
use of the building, premises, structure, or fixture shall conform
to the ordinance.
(b) 1. Except as provided under subd. 2., the board shall designate an officer to administer the zoning ordinance, who may be the
secretary of the zoning agency, a building inspector appointed
under s. 59.698 or other appropriate person.
2. Notwithstanding subd. 1. and s. 59.698, in a county with
a county zoning agency and a county executive or county administrator, the county executive or county administrator shall appoint
and supervise the head of the county zoning agency and the county
building inspector, in separate or combined positions. The
appointment is subject to confirmation by the board unless the
board, by ordinance, elects to waive confirmation or unless the
appointment is made under a civil service system competitive
examination procedure established under s. 59.52 (8) or ch. 63.
The board, by resolution or ordinance, may provide that, notwithstanding s. 17.10 (6), the head of the county zoning agency and the
county building inspector, whether serving in a separate or combined position, if appointed under this subdivision, may not be
removed from his or her position except for cause.
3. The officer designated under subd. 1. or 2. shall cause a
record to be made immediately after the enactment of an ordinance or amendment thereto, or change in district boundary,
approved by the town board, of all lands, premises and buildings
in the town used for purposes not conforming to the regulations
applicable to the district in which they are situated. The record
shall include the legal description of the lands, the nature and
extent of the uses therein, and the names and addresses of the
owner or occupant or both. Promptly on its completion the record
shall be published in the county as a class 1 notice, under ch. 985.
The record, as corrected, shall be on file with the register of deeds
60 days after the last publication and shall be prima facie evidence

of the extent and number of nonconforming uses existing on the
effective date of the ordinance in the town. Corrections before the
filing of the record with the register of deeds may be made on the
filing of sworn proof in writing, satisfactory to the officer administering the zoning ordinance.
(c) The board shall prescribe a procedure for the annual listing
of nonconforming uses, discontinued or created, since the previous listing and for all other nonconforming uses. Discontinued
and newly created nonconforming uses shall be recorded with the
register of deeds immediately after the annual listing.
(d) Paragraphs (b) and (c) shall not apply to counties issuing
building permits or occupancy permits as a means of enforcing the
zoning ordinance or to counties which have provided other procedures for this purpose.
(e) 1. In this paragraph, “amortization ordinance” means an
ordinance that allows the continuance of the lawful use of a nonconforming building, premises, structure, or fixture that may be
lawfully used as described under par. (a), but only for a specified
period of time, after which the lawful use of such building, premises, structure, or fixture must be discontinued without the payment of just compensation.
2. Subject to par. (a), an ordinance enacted under this section
may not require the removal of a nonconforming building, premises, structure, or fixture by an amortization ordinance.
(10m) RESTORATION OF CERTAIN NONCONFORMING STRUCTURES. (a) Restrictions that are applicable to damaged or
destroyed nonconforming structures and that are contained in an
ordinance enacted under this section may not prohibit the restoration of a nonconforming structure if the structure will be restored
to the size, subject to par. (b), location, and use that it had immediately before the damage or destruction occurred, or impose any
limits on the costs of the repair, reconstruction, or improvement
if all of the following apply:
1. The nonconforming structure was damaged or destroyed
on or after March 2, 2006.
2. The damage or destruction was caused by violent wind,
vandalism, fire, flood, ice, snow, mold, or infestation.

requirements.
(11) PROCEDURE FOR ENFORCEMENT OF COUNTY ZONING ORDINANCE. The board shall prescribe rules, regulations and administrative procedures, and provide such administrative personnel as
it considers necessary for the enforcement of this section, and all
ordinances enacted in pursuance thereof. The rules and regulations and the districts, setback building lines and regulations
authorized by this section, shall be prescribed by ordinances
which shall be declared to be for the purpose of promoting the
public health, safety and general welfare. The ordinances shall be
enforced by appropriate forfeitures. Compliance with such ordinances may also be enforced by injunctional order at the suit of the

shall invalidate any county zoning ordinance enacted under statutes in effect before July 20, 1951.
(13) CONSTRUCTION OF SECTION. The powers granted in this
section shall be liberally construed in favor of the county exercising them, and this section shall not be construed to limit or repeal
any powers now possessed by a county.

Agents of a facility may apply for an exception to this requirement, and such exceptions may be granted at the discretion of the
municipality. Two community living arrangements may be adjacent if the municipality authorizes that arrangement and if both
facilities comprise essential components of a single program.
(b) 1. Community living arrangements shall be permitted in
each municipality without restriction as to the number of facilities,
so long as the total capacity of the community living arrangements
does not exceed 25 or 1% of the municipality’s population, whichever is greater. When the capacity of the community living
arrangements in the municipality reaches that total, the municipality may prohibit additional community living arrangements from
locating in the municipality. In any municipality, when the capacity of community living arrangements in an aldermanic district in
a city or a ward in a village or town reaches 25 or 1% of the population, whichever is greater, of the district or ward, the municipality
may prohibit additional community living arrangements from
being located within the district or ward. Agents of a facility may
apply for an exception to the requirements of this subdivision, and
such exceptions may be granted at the discretion of the municipality.
2. No community living arrangement may be established after
January 1, 1995, within 2,500 feet, or any lesser distance established by an ordinance of the municipality, of any other such facility. Agents of a facility may apply for an exception to this requirement, and exceptions may be granted at the discretion of the
municipality. Two community living arrangements may be adjacent if the municipality authorizes that arrangement and if both
facilities comprise essential components of a single program.
(bm) A foster home or a treatment foster home that is the primary domicile of a foster parent or treatment foster parent and that
is licensed under s. 48.62 or an adult family home certified under
s. 50.032 (1m) (b) shall be a permitted use in all residential areas
and is not subject to pars. (a) and (b) except that foster homes and
treatment foster homes operated by corporations, child welfare
agencies, religious associations, as defined in s. 157.061 (15),
associations or public agencies shall be subject to pars. (a) and (b).
(br) 1. No adult family home described in s. 50.01 (1) (b) may
be established within 2,500 feet, or any lesser distance established
by an ordinance of the municipality, of any other adult family
home described in s. 50.01 (1) (b) or any community living
arrangement. An agent of an adult family home described in s.
50.01 (1) (b) may apply for an exception to this requirement, and
the exception may be granted at the discretion of the municipality.
2. An adult family home described in s. 50.01 (1) (b) that
meets the criteria specified in subd. 1. and that is licensed under
s. 50.033 (1m) (b) is permitted in the municipality without restriction as to the number of adult family homes and may locate in any
residential zone, without being required to obtain special zoning
permission except as provided in par. (i).
(c) Where the community living arrangement has capacity for
8 or fewer persons being served by the program, meets the criteria
listed in pars. (a) and (b), and is licensed, operated or permitted
under the authority of the department of health and family services, that facility is entitled to locate in any residential zone, without being required to obtain special zoning permission except as
provided in par. (i).

(d) Where the community living arrangement has capacity for
9 to 15 persons being served by the program, meets the criteria
listed in pars. (a) and (b), and is licensed, or operated or permitted
under the authority of the department of health and family services, the facility is entitled to locate in any residential area except
areas zoned exclusively for single−family or 2−family residences,
except as provided in par. (i), but is entitled to apply for special
zoning permission to locate in those areas. The municipality may
grant special zoning permission at its discretion and shall make a
procedure available to enable such facilities to request such permission.
(e) Where the community living arrangement has capacity for
serving 16 or more persons, meets the criteria listed in pars. (a) and
(b), and is licensed, operated or permitted under the authority of
the department of health and family services, that facility is
entitled to apply for special zoning permission to locate in areas
zoned for residential use. The municipality may grant special zoning permission at its discretion and shall make a procedure available to enable such facilities to request such permission.
(f) The department of health and family services shall designate a single subunit within the department to maintain appropriate records indicating the location and the capacity of each community living arrangement, and the information shall be available
to the public.
(g) In this subsection, “special zoning permission” includes,
but is not limited to, the following: special exception, special permit, conditional use, zoning variance, conditional permit and
words of similar intent.
(h) The attorney general shall take action, upon the request of
the department of health and family services, to enforce compliance with this subsection.
(i) Not less than 11 months nor more than 13 months after the
first licensure of an adult family home under s. 50.033 or of a community living arrangement and every year thereafter, the common
council or village or town board of a municipality in which a
licensed adult family home or a community living arrangement is
located may make a determination as to the effect of the adult family home or community living arrangement on the health, safety
or welfare of the residents of the municipality. The determination
shall be made according to the procedures provided under par. (j).
If the common council or village or town board determines that the
existence in the municipality of a licensed adult family home or
a community living arrangement poses a threat to the health,
safety or welfare of the residents of the municipality, the common
council or village or town board may order the adult family home
or community living arrangement to cease operation unless special zoning permission is obtained. The order is subject to judicial
review under s. 68.13, except that a free copy of the transcript may
not be provided to the licensed adult family home or community
living arrangement. The licensed adult family home or community living arrangement shall cease operation within 90 days after
the date of the order, or the date of final judicial review of the
order, or the date of the denial of special zoning permission,
whichever is later.
(im) The fact that an individual with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome or a positive test for the presence of HIV, as
defined in s. 252.01 (1m), antigen or nonantigenic products of
HIV or an antibody to HIV resides in a community living arrangement with a capacity for 8 or fewer persons may not be used under
par. (i) to assert or prove that the existence of the community living
arrangement in the municipality poses a threat to the health, safety
or welfare of the residents of the municipality.
(j) A determination under par. (i) shall be made after a hearing
before the common council or village or town board. The municipality shall provide at least 30 days’ notice to the licensed adult
family home or the community living arrangement that such a
hearing will be held. At the hearing, the licensed adult family
home or the community living arrangement may be represented
by counsel and may present evidence and call and examine wit-

NOTE: 2003 Wis. Act 214, which affected this section, contains extensive
explanatory notes.
A zoning ordinance may distinguish between foster homes and therapeutic homes
for the care of children. Browndale International v. Board of Adjustment, 60 Wis. 2d
182, 208 N.W.2d 121 (1973).
A plaintiff is not required to exhaust administrative remedies when his or her claim
is that a zoning ordinance is unconstitutional, but may ask for a declaratory judgment.
An ordinance classifying land as agricultural when it is unfit for agriculture is unreasonable and amounts to a taking of the land without compensation. Kmiec v. Town
of Spider Lake, 60 Wis. 2d 640, 211 N.W.2d 471 (1973).
A property owner does not acquire a “vested interest” in the continuance of a nonconforming use, and such status will be denied if the specific use was casual and occasional, or if the use was merely accessory or incidental to the principal use. Walworth
County v. Hartwell, 62 Wis. 2d 57, 214 N.W.2d 288 (1974).
Under s. 59.97 [now s. 59.69] (5) (c), a county zoning ordinance becomes effective
in a town upon approval of the text by the town board and the filing of the approving
resolution with the town clerk and not when it merely adopts a zoning map. Racine
County v. Alby, 65 Wis. 2d 574, 223 N.W.2d 438 (1974).
Zoning ordinances, being in derogation of common law, are to be construed in
favor of the free use of private property. Cohen v. Dane County Board of Adjustment,
74 Wis. 2d 87, 246 N.W.2d 112 (1976).
A municipality is not required to show irreparable injury before obtaining an
injunction under s. 59.97 [now s. 59.69] (11). County of Columbia v. Bylewski, 94
Wis. 2d 153, 288 N.W.2d 129 (1980).
Under s. 59.97 [now s. 59.69] (9) a county may rezone county−owned land contrary to town zoning laws and without town approval. Town of Ringle v. County of
Marathon, 104 Wis. 2d 297, 311 N.W.2d 595 (1981).
The primary authority to enact, repeal, and amend a zoning ordinance is at the
county, not town, level. The county is responsible for any liabilities that may arise
from adoption. No liability arises to a town from the town’s approval of a county ordinance enacted following the repeal of a prior effective ordinance. M & I Marshall
Bank v. Town of Somers, 141 Wis. 2d 271, 414 N.W.2d 824 (1987).
When it is claimed that zoning resulted in a taking of land without compensation,
there is no compensable taking unless the regulation resulted in a diminution of value
so great that it amounts to a confiscation. M & I Marshall Bank v. Town of Somers,
141 Wis. 2d 271, 414 N.W.2d 824 (1987).
For purposes of determining a nonconforming use for a quarry site, all land that
contains the mineral and is integral to the operation is included, although a particular
portion may not be under actual excavation. Smart v. Dane County Board of Adjustment, 177 Wis. 2d 445, 501 N.W.2d 782 (1993).
The power to regulate nonconforming uses includes the power to limit the extension or expansion of the use if it results in a change in the character of the use. Waukesha County v. Pewaukee Marina, Inc. 187 Wis. 2d 18, 522 N.W.2d 536 (Ct. App.
1994).
When a zoning ordinance is changed, a builder may have a vested right, enforceable by mandamus, to build under the previously existing ordinance if the builder has
submitted, prior to the change, an application for a permit in strict and complete conformance with the ordinance then in effect. Lake Bluff Housing Partners v. South
Milwaukee, 197 Wis. 2d 157, 540 N.W.2d 189 (1995), 94−1155.
Unless the zoning ordinance provides otherwise, a court should measure the sufficiency of a conditional use application at the time that notice of the final public hearing is first given. Weber v. Town of Saukville, 209 Wis. 2d 214, 562 N.W.2d 412
(1997), 94−2336.
A permit issued for a use prohibited by a zoning ordinance is illegal per se. A conditional use permit only allows a property owner to put the property to a use that is
expressly permitted as long as conditions have been met. A use begun under an illegal
permit cannot be a prior nonconforming use. Foresight, Inc. v. Babl, 211 Wis. 2d 599,
565 N.W.2d 279 (Ct. App. 1997), 96−1964.
A nonconforming use, regardless of its duration, may be prohibited or restricted
if it also constitutes a public nuisance or is harmful to public health, safety, or welfare.
Town of Delafield v. Sharpley, 212 Wis. 2d 332, 568 N.W.2d 779 (Ct. App. 1997),
96−2458.
A county executive’s power to veto ordinances and resolutions extends to rezoning
petitions that are in essence proposed amendments to the county zoning ordinance.
The veto is subject to limited judicial review. Schmeling v. Phelps, 212 Wis. 2d 898,
569 N.W.2d 784 (Ct. App. 1997), 96−2661.

Sub. (11) does not eliminate the traditional equitable power of a circuit court . It
is within the power of the court to deny a county’s request for injunctive relief when
a zoning ordinance violation is proven. The court should take evidence and weigh
equitable considerations including that of the state’s citizens. Forest County v.
Goode, 219 Wis. 2d 654, 579 N.W.2d 715 (1998), 96−3592.
Construction in violation of zoning regulations, even when authorized by a voluntarily issued permit, is unlawful. However, in rare cases, there may be compelling
equitable reasons when a requested order of abatement should not be issued. Lake
Bluff Housing Partners v. City of South Milwaukee, 222 Wis. 2d 222, 588 N.W.2d
45 (Ct. App. 1998), 97−1339.
A conditional use permit did not impose a condition that the conditional use not
be conducted outside the permitted area. It was improper to revoke the permit based
on that use. An enforcement action in relation to the parcel where the use was not
permitted was an appropriate remedy. Bettendorf v. St. Croix County Board of
Adjustment, 224 Wis. 2d 735, 591 N.W.2d 916 (Ct. App.1999), 98−2327.
Once a municipality has shown an illegal change in use to a nonconforming use,
the municipality is entitled to terminate the entire nonconforming use. The decision
is not within the discretion of the court reviewing the order. Village of Menomonee
Falls v. Preuss, 225 Wis. 2d 746, 593 N.W.2d 496 (Ct. App. 1999), 98−0384.
To violate substantive due process guarantees, a zoning decision must involve
more than simple errors in law or an improper exercise of discretion; it must shock
the conscience. The city’s violation of a purported agreement regarding zoning was
not a violation. A court cannot compel a political body to adhere to an agreement
regrading zoning if that body has legitimate reasons for breaching. Eternalist
Foundation, Inc. v. City of Platteville, 225 Wis. 2d 759, 593 N.W.2d 84 (Ct. App.
1999), 98−1944.
While the DNR has the authority to regulate the operation of game farms, its
authority does not negate the power to enforce zoning ordinances against game farms.
Both are applicable. Willow Creek Ranch v. Town of Shelby, 2000 WI 56, 235 Wis.
2d 409, 611 N.W.2d 693, 97−2075.
A change in method or quantity of production of a nonconforming use is not a new
use when the original character of the use remains the same. The incorporation of
modern technology into the business of the operator of a nonconforming use is
allowed. Racine County v. Cape, 2002 WI App 19, 250 Wis. 2d 44, 639 N.W.2d 782,
01−0740.
Financial investment is a factor to consider when determining whether a zoning
violation must be abated, but it does not outweigh all other equitable factors to be considered. Lake Bluff Housing Partners v. City of South Milwaukee, 2001 WI App 150,
246 Wis. 2d 785, 632 N.W.2d 485, 00−1958.
While a mere increase in the volume, intensity, or frequency of a nonconforming
use is not sufficient to invalidate it, if the increase in volume, intensity, or frequency
of use is coupled with some identifiable change or extension, the enlargement will
invalidate a legal nonconforming use. A proposed elimination of cabins and the
expansion from 21 to 44 RV sites was an identifiable change in a campground and
extension of the use for which it had been licensed. Lessard v. Burnett County Board
of Adjustment, 2002 WI App 186, 256 Wis. 2d 821, 649 N.W.2d 728, 01−2986.
To find discontinuance of a nonconforming use, proof of intent to abandon the nonconforming use is not required. Lessard v. Burnett County Board of Adjustment,
2002 WI App 186, 256 Wis. 2d 821, 649 N.W.2d 728, 01−2986.
A conditional use permit (CUP) is not a contract. A CUP is issued under an ordinance. A municipality has discretion to issue a permit and the right to seek enforcement of it. Noncompliance with the terms of a CUP is tantamount to noncompliance
with the ordinance. Town of Cedarburg v. Shewczyk, 2003 WI App 10, 259 Wis. 2d
818, 656 N.W.2d 491, 02−0902.
Spot zoning grants privileges to a single lot or area that are not granted or extended
to other land in the same use district. Spot zoning is not per se illegal but, absent any
showing that a refusal to rezone will in effect confiscate the property by depriving all
beneficial use thereof should only be indulged in when it is in the public interest and
not solely for the benefit of the property owner who requests the rezoning. Step Now
Citizens Group v. Town of Utica, 2003 WI App 109, 264 Wis. 2d 662, 663 N.W.2d
833, 02−2760.
The failure to comply with an ordinance’s notice requirements, when all statutory
notice requirements were met, did not defeat the purpose of the ordinance’s notice
provision. Step Now Citizens Group v. Town of Utica, 2003 WI App 109, 264 Wis.
2d 662, 663 N.W.2d 833, 02−2760.
Under Goode a landowner may contest whether he or she is in violation of the zoning ordinance and, if so, can further contest on equitable grounds the enforcement of
a sanction for the violation. Town of Delafield v. Winkelman, 2004 WI 17, 269 Wis.
2d 109, 675 N.W.2d 470, 02−0979.
A municipality cannot be estopped from seeking to enforce a zoning ordinance, but
a circuit court has authority to exercise its discretion in deciding whether to grant
enforcement. Upon the determination of an ordinance violation, the proper procedure for a circuit court is to grant an injunction enforcing the ordinance, except when
it is presented with compelling equitable reasons to deny it. Village of Hobart v.
Brown County, 2005 WI 78, 281 Wis. 2d 628, 698 N.W.2d 83, 03−1907.
An existing conditional use permit (CUP) is not a vested property right and the
revocation of the permit is not an unconstitutional taking. A CUP merely represents
a species of zoning designations. Because landowners have no property interest in
zoning designations applicable to their properties, a CUP is not property and no taking occurs by virtue of a revocation. Rainbow Springs Golf Company, Inc. v. Town
of Mukwonago, 2005 WI App 163, 284 Wis. 2d 519, 702 N.W.2d 40, 04−1771.
The fact that a county is within a regional planning commission does not affect
county zoning power. 61 Atty. Gen. 220.
The authority of a county to regulate mobile homes under this section and other
zoning questions are discussed. 62 Atty. Gen. 292.
Zoning ordinances utilizing definitions of “family” to restrict the number of unrelated persons who may live in a single family dwelling are of questionable constitutionality. 63 Atty. Gen. 34.
Under s. 59.97 [now s. 59.69] (5) (c), town board approval of a comprehensive
county zoning ordinance must extend to the ordinance in its entirety and may not
extend only to parts of the ordinance. 63 Atty. Gen. 199.
A county that has enacted a countywide comprehensive zoning ordinance under
this section may not authorize the withdrawal of town approval of the ordinance or
exclude any town from the ordinance. 67 Atty. Gen. 197.

The office of county planning and zoning commission member is incompatible

A county’s power under sub. (4) is broad enough to encompass regulation of the
storage of junked, unused, unlicensed, or abandoned motor vehicles on private property. Because sub. (10) protects “trade or industry,” a county zoning ordinance could

occasional.” OAG 2−00.

(1r) An ordinance enacted under this section may not prohibit
the maintenance of stairs, platforms or decks that were
constructed before August 15, 1991, and that are located in any of
the following shorelands:
(a) The shoreland of Lake Wissota in Chippewa County.
(b) The shorelands of Lake Holcombe in Chippewa and Rusk
counties.
(1s) (a) Restrictions that are applicable to damaged or
destroyed nonconforming structures and that are contained in an
ordinance enacted under this section may not prohibit the restoration of a nonconforming structure if the structure will be restored
to the size, subject to par. (b), location and use that it had immediately before the damage or destruction occurred or impose any
limits on the costs of the repair, reconstruction or improvement if
all of the following apply:
1. The nonconforming structure was damaged or destroyed
after October 14, 1997.
2. The damage or destruction was caused by violent wind,
vandalism, fire, flood, ice, snow, mold, or infestation.
(b) An ordinance enacted under this section to which par. (a)
applies shall allow for the size of a structure to be larger than the
size it was immediately before the damage or destruction if necessary for the structure to comply with applicable state or federal
requirements.
(1t) A county or the department may not commence an
enforcement action against a person who owns a building or structure that is in violation of a shoreland zoning standard or an ordinance enacted under this section if the building or structure has

setback area that is nearest to the water.
(2) (a) Except as otherwise specified, all provisions of s.
59.69 apply to ordinances and their amendments enacted under
this section whether or not enacted separately from ordinances
enacted under s. 59.69, but the ordinances and amendments shall
not require approval or be subject to disapproval by any town or
town board.
(b) If an existing town ordinance relating to shorelands is more
restrictive than an ordinance later enacted under this section
affecting the same shorelands, it continues as a town ordinance in
all respects to the extent of the greater restrictions, but not otherwise.
(c) Ordinances that are enacted under this section shall accord
and be consistent with any comprehensive zoning plan or general
zoning ordinance applicable to the enacting counties, so far as
practicable.
(3) All powers granted to a county under s. 236.45 may be
exercised by it with respect to shorelands, but the county must
have or provide a planning agency as defined in s. 236.02 (3).

66.0309, the commission may, with its consent, be empowered by
the ordinance of agreement to administer each ordinance enacted
hereunder throughout its enacting municipality, whether or not the
area otherwise served by the commission includes all of that
municipality.

provisions of an ordinance enacted under s. 59.69 that relate to
shorelands.
(6) If a county does not enact an ordinance by January 1, 1968, or if the department, after notice and hearing, determines that a county has enacted an ordinance that fails to meet the
shoreland zoning standards, the department shall adopt such an
ordinance for the county. As far as possible, s. 87.30 shall apply
to this subsection.
(6m) For an amendment to an ordinance enacted under this
section that affects an activity that meets all of the requirements
under s. 281.165 (2) or (3) (a), the department may not proceed
under sub. (6) or (7) (b) or (c), or otherwise review the amendment, to determine whether the ordinance, as amended, fails to
meet the shoreland zoning standards.
(7) (a) Provisions of a county shoreland zoning ordinance that
are enacted under this section that were applicable, prior to annexation, to any shoreland area annexed by a city or village after
May 7, 1982, shall continue in effect and shall be enforced after
annexation by the annexing city or village unless any of the following occurs:

city or village administers and enforces the amended ordinance as
it applies to the annexed area.
3. After annexation, the city or village requests that the county
shoreland zoning ordinance, as it applies to the annexed area, continues to be in effect and enforced by the county and the county

(ad) Provisions of a county shoreland zoning ordinance that
are enacted under this section that were applicable, prior to incorporation, to any shoreland area that is part of a town that incorporates as a city or village under s. 66.0203, 66.0211, 66.0213 or

notice and conducting a hearing on the matter, either issue an order
declaring the city or village ordinance void and reinstating the
applicability of the county shoreland zoning ordinance to the
annexed or incorporated area or issue an order declaring the city
or village ordinance void and adopting an ordinance for the
annexed or incorporated area for the city or village that does meet
the shoreland zoning standards and that is at least as restrictive as
the county shoreland zoning ordinance.

In evaluating whether to grant an area variance to a zoning ordinance, a board of
adjustment should focus on the purpose of the zoning law at issue in determining
whether an unnecessary hardship exists for the property owner seeking the variance.

(6) APPLICABILITY OF COMPREHENSIVE ZONING PLAN OR GENERAL ZONING ORDINANCE. Ordinances that are enacted under this
section shall accord and be consistent with any comprehensive
zoning plan or general zoning ordinance applicable to the enacting
counties, so far as practicable.
(7) APPLICABILITY OF LOCAL SUBDIVISION REGULATION. All
powers granted to a county under s. 236.45 may be exercised by
the county with respect to construction site erosion control at sites
where the construction activities do not include the construction
of a building or with respect to storm water management regulation, if the county has or provides a county planning agency as
defined in s. 236.02 (1).
(8) APPLICABILITY TO LOCAL GOVERNMENTS AND AGENCIES. An
ordinance that is enacted under this section is applicable to activities conducted by a unit of local government and an agency of that
unit of government. An ordinance that is enacted under this section is not applicable to activities conducted by an agency, as
defined under s. 227.01 (1) but also including the office of district
attorney, which is subject to the state plan promulgated or a memorandum of understanding entered into under s. 281.33 (2).

includes all of that county.
(c) If the board of commissioners of the Dane County Lakes
and Watershed Commission consents, Dane County may
empower the commission by ordinance to administer an ordinance that is enacted under this section whether or not the area
otherwise served by the commission includes all of Dane County.
Section 66.0301 does not apply to this paragraph.
(10) VALIDITY UPON ANNEXATION. An ordinance that is
enacted under this section by a county that is in effect in an area
immediately before the area is annexed by a city or village continues in effect in the area after annexation unless the city or village
enacts, maintains and enforces a city or village ordinance which
complies with minimum standards established by the department
and which is at least as restrictive as the county ordinance enacted
under this section. If, after providing notice and conducting a
hearing on the matter, the department determines that an ordinance that is enacted by a city or village which is applicable to the
annexed area does not meet these standards or is not as restrictive
as the county ordinance, the department shall issue an order
declaring the city or village ordinance void and reinstating the
applicability of the county ordinance to the annexed area.

59.694 County zoning, adjustment board. (1) APPOINTMENT, POWER. The county board may provide for the appointment
of a board of adjustment, and in the regulations and restrictions
adopted under s. 59.69 may provide that the board of adjustment
may, in appropriate cases and subject to appropriate conditions
and safeguards, make special exceptions to the terms of the ordinance in harmony with its general purpose and intent and in accordance with general or specific rules therein contained. Nothing in
this subsection precludes the granting of special exceptions by the
county zoning agency designated under s. 59.69 (2) (a) or the
county board in accordance with regulations and restrictions
adopted under s. 59.69 which were in effect on July 7, 1973, or
adopted after that date.
(2) PERSONNEL. (a) In counties with a population of less than
500,000, the board of adjustment shall consist of not more than 5
members as determined by resolution of the county board. The

chairperson of the county board shall appoint the members with
the approval of the county board for terms of 3 years beginning
July 1. The incumbent members shall continue to serve until their
terms expire. The county board resolution increasing the size of
the board of adjustment shall indicate how many members shall
be appointed for 1, 2 and 3 years prior to July 1 of the year in which
the change takes effect in making the first appointments. If the
county board, by resolution, determines to reduce the membership
of the board of adjustment below 5 but not less than 3, one of the
positions for which the term expires as determined by lot shall not
be filled each year until the requisite number of positions has been
reached.
(am) The chairperson of the county board to which par. (a)
applies shall appoint, for staggered 3−year terms, 2 alternate
members of the board of adjustment, who are subject to the
approval of the county board. Annually, the chairperson of the
county board shall designate one of the alternate members as the
first alternate and the other as 2nd alternate. The first alternate
shall act, with full power, only when a member of the board of
adjustment refuses to vote because of a conflict of interest or when
a member is absent. The 2nd alternate shall act only when the first
alternate refuses to vote because of a conflict of interest or is
absent, or if more than one member of the board of adjustment
refuses to vote because of a conflict of interest or is absent.
(b) In counties with a population of 500,000 or more, the board
of adjustment shall consist of 3 members who are residents of the
county, elected by the county board for terms of 1, 2 and 3 years,
respectively, and until their successors are elected and qualify.
(bm) The chairperson of the county board to which par. (b)
applies shall appoint, for staggered 3−year terms, 2 alternate
members of the board of adjustment, who are subject to the
approval of the county board. Annually, the chairperson of the
county board shall designate one of the alternate members as the
first alternate and the other as 2nd alternate. The first alternate
shall act, with full power, only when a member of the board of
adjustment refuses to vote because of a conflict of interest or when
a member is absent. The 2nd alternate shall act only when the first
alternate refuses to vote because of a conflict of interest or is
absent, or if more than one member of the board of adjustment
refuses to vote because of a conflict of interest or is absent.
(c) The members of the board of adjustment, including alternate members, shall all reside within the county and outside of the
limits of incorporated cities and villages; provided, however, that
no 2 members shall reside in the same town. The board of adjustment shall choose its own chairperson. Office room shall be provided by the county board, and the actual and necessary expenses
incurred by the board of adjustment in the performance of its
duties shall be paid and allowed as in cases of other claims against
the county. The county board may likewise compensate the members of the board of adjustment, including alternate members, and
the assistants as may be authorized by the county board. Vacancies shall be filled for the unexpired term of any member whose
term becomes vacant.
(3) RULES, MEETINGS, MINUTES. The county board shall adopt
rules for the conduct of the business of the board of adjustment,
in accordance with the provisions of any ordinance enacted under
s. 59.69. The board of adjustment may adopt further rules as necessary to carry into effect the regulations of the county board.
Meetings of the board of adjustment shall be held at the call of the
chairperson and at such other times as the board of adjustment
may determine. The chairperson, or in his or her absence the acting chairperson, may administer oaths and compel the attendance
of witnesses. All meetings of the board of adjustment shall be
open to the public. The board of adjustment shall keep minutes
of its proceedings, showing the vote of each member upon each
question, or, if absent or failing to vote, indicating such fact, and
shall keep records of its examinations and other official actions,

all of which shall be immediately filed in the office of the board
of adjustment and shall be a public record.
(3m) QUORUM REQUIREMENTS. If a quorum is present, the
board of adjustment may take action under this section by a majority vote of the members present.
(4) APPEALS TO BOARD. Appeals to the board of adjustment
may be taken by any person aggrieved or by any officer, department, board or bureau of the municipality affected by any decision
of the building inspector or other administrative officer. Such
appeal shall be taken within a reasonable time, as provided by the
rules of the board of adjustment, by filing with the officer from
whom the appeal is taken and with the board of adjustment a
notice of appeal specifying the grounds thereof. The officer from
whom the appeal is taken shall forthwith transmit to the board of
adjustment all the papers constituting the record upon which the
action appealed from was taken.
(5) STAYS. An appeal shall stay all proceedings in furtherance
of the action appealed from, unless the officer from whom the
appeal is taken shall certify to the board of adjustment after the
notice of appeal shall have been filed with that officer that by reason of facts stated in the certificate a stay would cause imminent
peril to life or property. In such case proceedings shall not be
stayed otherwise than by a restraining order, which may be
granted upon application to the board of adjustment or by petition
to a court of record, with notice to the officer from whom the
appeal is taken.
(6) HEARING APPEALS. The board of adjustment shall fix a reasonable time for the hearing of the appeal and publish a class 2
notice thereof under ch. 985, as well as give due notice to the parties in interest, and decide the same within a reasonable time.
Upon the hearing, a party may appear in person or by agent or
attorney. In an action involving a historic property, as defined in
s. 44.31 (3), the board of adjustment shall consider any suggested
alternatives or recommended decision submitted by the landmarks commission or the planning and zoning committee or commission.
(7) POWERS OF BOARD. The board of adjustment shall have all
of the following powers:
(a) To hear and decide appeals where it is alleged there is error
in an order, requirement, decision or determination made by an
administrative official in the enforcement of s. 59.69 or of any
ordinance enacted pursuant thereto.
(b) To hear and decide special exceptions to the terms of the
ordinance upon which the board is required to pass under such
ordinance.
(c) To authorize upon appeal in specific cases variances from
the terms of the ordinance that will not be contrary to the public
interest, where, owing to special conditions, a literal enforcement
of the provisions of the ordinance will result in unnecessary hardship, and so that the spirit of the ordinance shall be observed and
substantial justice done.
(d) To grant special exceptions and variances for renewable
energy resource systems. If the board denies an application for a
special exception or variance for such a system, the board shall
provide a written statement of its reasons for denying the application. In this paragraph, “renewable energy resource system”
means a solar energy system, a waste conversion energy system,
a wind energy system or any other energy system which relies on
a renewable energy resource.
(8) ORDER ON APPEAL. In exercising the powers under this section, the board of adjustment may, in conformity with the provisions of this section, reverse or affirm, wholly or partly, or may
modify the order, requirement, decision or determination
appealed from, and may make the order, requirement, decision or
determination as ought to be made, and to that end shall have all
the powers of the officer from whom the appeal is taken.
(9) MAJORITY RULE. A majority vote of the board of adjustment shall be necessary to reverse any order, requirement, deci-

sion or determination of any such administrative official, or to
decide in favor of the applicant on any matter upon which it is
required to pass under any such ordinance, or to effect any variation in such ordinance.
(10) CERTIORARI. A person aggrieved by any decision of the
board of adjustment, or a taxpayer, or any officer, department,
board or bureau of the municipality, may, within 30 days after the
filing of the decision in the office of the board, commence an
action seeking the remedy available by certiorari. The court shall
not stay the decision appealed from, but may, with notice to the
board, grant a restraining order. The board of adjustment shall not
be required to return the original papers acted upon by it, but it
shall be sufficient to return certified or sworn copies thereof. If
necessary for the proper disposition of the matter, the court may
take evidence, or appoint a referee to take evidence and report
findings of fact and conclusions of law as it directs, which shall
constitute a part of the proceedings upon which the determination
of the court shall be made. The court may reverse or affirm,
wholly or partly, or may modify, the decision brought up for
review.
(14) COSTS. Costs shall not be allowed against the board of
adjustment unless it shall appear to the court that it acted with
gross negligence, or in bad faith, or with malice in making the
decision appealed from. All issues in any proceeding under this
section shall have preference over all other civil actions and proceedings.

Judicial Council Note, 1981: Subsections (11), (12) and (13) have been repealed
as unnecessary because in large part they merely describe the remedy of certiorari,
which is now available in an ordinary action. See s. 781.01, stats., and the note
thereto. Those provisions of the repealed subsections which permit departure from
ordinary certiorari procedures, such as augmentation of the record by the court, have
been placed in sub. (10). No substantive change in the scope or standard of review
is intended. [Bill 613−A]
There is no significant difference between “unnecessary hardship” under s. 59.99
[now s. 59.694] (7) (c) and “practical difficulties.” Grounds for variances are discussed. Snyder v. Waukesha County Zoning Board, 74 Wis. 2d 468, 247 N.W.2d 98
(1976).
An aggrieved person has the right to appeal to the board of adjustment from a zoning committee’s decision to grant conditional use permits. League of Women Voters
v. Outagamie County, 113 Wis. 2d 313, 334 N.W.2d 887 (1983).
Aggrieved residents had the right to appeal even though they did not appear at committee hearings. Commencement of construction, not publication of hearing notices,
constituted notice to residents that a permit had been issued. The standard of review
is discussed. State ex rel. Brookside v. Jefferson County Board of Adjustment, 131
Wis. 2d 101, 388 N.W.2d 593 (1986).
Filing of a petition for a writ of certiorari, without more, did not satisfy the requirement under s. 59.99 [now s. 59.694] (10) that an action be commenced within 30 days.
Schwochert v. Marquette County Board, 132 Wis. 2d 196, 389 N.W.2d 841 (Ct. App.
1986).
A trial court must exercise discretion when taking additional evidence pursuant to
s. 59.99 [now s. 59.694] (10). If evidence taken is substantially similar to that which
the board received, review is confined to a certiorari standard. Klinger v. Oneida
County, 149 Wis. 2d 838, 440 N.W.2d 348 (1989).
Under Brookside, the appeal time begins to run at the time notice is given, if the
zoning ordinance has a notice provision, and if there is no notice provision, when the
aggrieved parties find out about the decision. DNR v. Walworth County Board of
Adjustment, 170 Wis. 2d 406, 489 N.W.2d 631 (Ct. App. 1992).
The 30−day limitation period for commencing a certiorari action under s. 59.99
[now s. 59.694] (10) applies to the time allowed for filing an action that is commenced
by a complaint and applies to the time allowed for service when commenced by writ.
DNR v. Walworth County Board of Adjustment, 170 Wis. 2d 406, 489 N.W.2d 631
(Ct. App. 1992).
General, rather than explicit, standards regarding the granting of special exceptions may be adopted and applied by a governing body. The applicant has the burden

The legal standard of unnecessary hardship requires that the property owner demonstrate that without a variance there is no reasonable use for the property. When the
property owner has a reasonable use for the property, the statute takes precedence and
the variance should be denied. State v. Kenosha County Board of Adjustment, 218
Wis. 2d 396, 577 N.W.2d 813 (1998), 96−1235. See also State v. Outagamie, 2001

Failure to join an indispensable party in a certiorari action under sub. (10) is not
jurisdictional. Filing the certiorari action tolls the 30−day period of limitations. Failure to name the party within the 30−day statutory period does not require dismissal.
County of Rusk v. Rusk County Board of Adjustment, 221 Wis. 2d 526, 585 N.W.2d
706 (Ct. App. 1998), 98−0298.
The burden is on the applicant for a variance to demonstrate through evidence that
without the variance he or she is prevented from enjoying any reasonable use of the
property. State ex rel. Spinner v. Kenosha County Board of Adjustment, 223 Wis. 2d

App. 1999), 98−0796.
Review of a certiorari action is limited to determining: 1) whether the board kept
within its jurisdiction; 2) whether the board proceeded on a correct theory of law; 3)
whether the board’s action was arbitrary, oppressive, or unreasonable; and 4) whether
the evidence was such that the board might reasonably make its order. Kapischke v.
County of Walworth, 226 Wis. 2d 320, 595 N.W.2d 42 (Ct. App. 1999), 98−0796.
The state, in administering the Fair Housing Act, may not order a zoning board to
issue a variance based on characteristics unique to the landowner rather than the land.
County of Sawyer Zoning Board v. Department of Workforce Development, 231 Wis.
2d 534, 605 N.W.2d 627 (Ct. App. 1999), 99−0707.
A variance authorizes a landowner to establish or maintain a use prohibited by zoning regulations. A special exception allows the landowner to put the property to a use
expressly permitted but that conflicts with some requirement of the ordinance. The
grant of a special exception does not require the showing of hardship required for a
variance. Fabyan v. Waukesha County Board of Adjustment, 2001 WI App 162, 246
Wis. 2d 851, 632 N.W.2d 116, 00−3103.
The public policy of promoting confidence in impartial tribunals may justify
expansion of the certiorari record when evidence outside of the record demonstrates
procedural unfairness. However, before a circuit court may authorize expansion, the
party alleging bias must make a prima facie showing of wrongdoing. Sills v. Walworth Cty Land, 2002 WI App 111, 254 Wis. 2d 538, 648 N.W.2d 878, 01−0901.
An ordinance requirement that no special use permit will be granted unless it is
“necessary for the public convenience” meant that the petitioner had to present sufficient evidence that the proposed use was essential to the community as a whole.

WI App 48, 260 Wis. 2d 494, 659 N.W.2d 424, 02−0596.
Area variance applicants need not meet the no reasonable use of the property standard that is applicable to use variance applications. The standard for unnecessary
hardship required in area variance cases is whether compliance with the strict letter
of the restrictions governing area, set backs, frontage, height, bulk, or density would
unreasonably prevent the owner from using the property for a permitted purpose or
would render conformity with those restrictions unnecessarily burdensome. Ziervogel v. Washington County Board of Adjustment, 2004 WI 23, 269 Wis. 2d 549, 676
N.W.2d 401, 02−1618.
In evaluating whether to grant an area variance to a zoning ordinance, a board of
adjustment should focus on the purpose of the zoning law at issue in determining
whether an unnecessary hardship exists for the property owner seeking the variance.
The facts of the case should be analyzed in light of that purpose, and boards of adjustment must be afforded flexibility so that they may appropriately exercise their discretion. State v. Waushara County Board of Adjustment, 2004 WI 56, 271 Wis. 2d 547,
679 N.W.2d 514, 02−2400.
When reviewing a decision to grant or deny a conditional use permit, a county
board of adjustment has the authority to conduct a de novo review of the record and
substitute its judgment for the county zoning committee’s judgment. Moreover,
under the applicable state statute, a board has authority to take new evidence. Osterhues v. Board of Adjustment for Washburn County, 2005 WI 92, 282 Wis. 2d 228,
698 N.W.2d 701, 03−2194.
A board of appeals may not simply grant or deny an application with conclusory
statements that the application does or does not satisfy the statutory criteria, but shall
express, on the record, its reasoning why an application does or does not meet the statutory criteria. Even when a board’s decision is dictated by a minority, these controlling members of the board ought to be able to articulate why an applicant has not satisfied its burden of proof on unnecessary hardship or why the facts of record cannot be
reconciled with some requirement of the ordinance or statute. A written decision is
not required as long as a board’s reasoning is clear from the transcript of its proceedings. Lamar Central Outdoor, Inc. v. Board of Zoning Appeals of the City of Milwaukee, 2005 WI 117, 284 Wis. 2d 1, 700 N.W.2d 87, 01−3105.
Although a county’s ordinance used the term “variance” to describe an exception
to the setback standard, it did not have the technical legal meaning commonly used
in a zoning context. Rather, under the terms of the ordinance, a “variance“ could be
granted as part of the conditional use permit process, not as a separate determination
based on the demonstration of a hardship. Roberts v. Manitowoc County Board of
Adjustment, 2006 WI App 169, ___ Wis. 2d ___, ___ N.W.2d ___, 05−2111.

ability and demonstrated interest in the problems of solid waste
management, but not more than 5 of the board members may be
appointed from the county board of supervisors. In any combination of counties, the solid waste management board shall be composed of 11 members with 3 additional members for each combining county in excess of 2. Appointments shall be made by the
county boards of supervisors of the combining counties in a manner acceptable to the combining counties, but each of the combining counties may appoint to the solid waste management board not
more than 3 members from its county board of supervisors. The
term of office of any member of the solid waste management

and experienced in solid waste management. For the purpose of
operating the solid waste management system, the solid waste
management board may exercise the following powers:

(2) POWERS AND DUTIES. The board is charged with the duty
and vested with all powers necessary to plan, acquire the right−of−
way for and construct an expressway system and mass transit
facilities in the county and to administer each expressway and
mass transit project until it is certified as completed; to coordinate
planning of expressways and mass transit facilities by other public
agencies to the extent required to ensure that an acceptable general
plan of expressways and mass transit facilities to serve the entire
county will be achieved; to determine whether full control of
access or partial control of access shall be exercised; to cooperate
with public and private agencies in mass transit and expressway
applications; including, without limitation because of enumeration, the power to contract and the following powers and duties:
(a) Plans for expressways. The board shall consider and tentatively adopt a general plan of expressways to serve the entire
county. The plan shall be presented to the governing body of each
municipality through which a part of the expressway system is
routed for its consideration and approval. The board may by formal action modify the general plan to meet objections raised by

general plan. When the approval of the necessary local governing
bodies has been obtained or the recommendation of the department of transportation has been obtained in lieu thereof, the general plan shall be finally adopted by the board. Thereafter, the
board may amend the general plan as it considers proper.
(b) Procedure upon adoption of plan. The board shall adopt
tentative expressway project budgets for the units of the comprehensive plan adopted under par. (a) and in order of construction
as the board considers proper. Each budget shall give reasonably
detailed estimates of expenditures required to complete the
expressway project and shall also give an estimate of the state and
federal aid which will become available for the project. The board
shall determine the amount of the county’s share of the cost of the
project and the financing thereof, either from the authorization of
county expressway bonds under s. 67.04, or by determining the
amounts to be included in the budgets during the construction
years, or by transfer from unappropriated surplus under s. 59.60
(5), or by any combination of the foregoing. When the board
determines that county funds for an expressway project shall be
financed in whole or in part from current budgets, the county auditor shall include such amounts in the proper proposed budget
under s. 59.60 (5). The board shall adopt expressway project budgets with such changes as it considers proper. When adopted, the
county contribution to the expressway project shall constitute a
legal appropriation and shall be expendable to the extent that
expressway bonds have been authorized or money otherwise provided. The board may amend any expressway project budget and
may transfer appropriations from one expressway project to
another.
(c) Acceptance of gifts. The board may accept grants, conveyances and devises of land, improvements thereon and all interests
whatsoever therein and bequests and donations of money to be
used for expressway purposes.
(d) Acquisition of lands and interests therein. 1. The board
may acquire in the name of the county or in the name of the state
when so directed by the department of transportation, by donation,
purchase, condemnation or otherwise, such lands, including any
improvements on the lands, and any interests, easements, franchises, rights and privileges in or pertaining to lands, of whatever
nature and by whomsoever owned, as the board considers necessary and required for expressway purposes, and to dispose of such
lands. The board may use expressway lands for the location or
relocation of any facility for mass transportation, including private or public utilities. The board may purchase or accept donation of remnants of tracts or parcels of land remaining at the time
or after it has acquired by condemnation or after or coincident with
its acquisition by purchase or donation portions of such tracts or
parcels for expressway purposes where in the judgment of the
board such action would assist in rendering just compensation to
a landowner, a part of whose lands are required for expressway
purposes, and would serve to minimize the overall cost of such
necessary taking by the public. The county may dispose of such
remnants. No lands or interest in lands that are acquired as provided in this paragraph shall be disposed of by the county without
the consent of the board, and all money that is received for any
such lands, improvements or interests in land, so disposed of, shall
be credited to the land acquisition account as an abatement of
expense. No lands acquired by the board, as provided in this subsection, in the name of or in trust for the state, shall be disposed
of by the county without prior approval of the state, and the proceeds of the sale shall be remitted to the state or retained and used
for expressway purposes when so directed by the department of
transportation.
2. After the general plan of expressways has been adopted, the
board may, for specific approved highway projects or otherwise,
acquire lands and interests therein of the nature and in the manner
specified in this paragraph for the right−of−way of the expressways in advance of the time of the adoption of an expressway project budget including the lands and interests. Such power may be
exercised when in the judgment of the board the public interest

will be served and economy effected by forestalling development
of the lands which will entail greater acquisition costs if acquired
at a later date. Upon such acquisition the board may improve, use,
maintain or lease the lands until the same are required for expressway construction. It is recognized that there may necessarily be
a period of time between the acquisition of needed lands for right−
of−way and the commencement of actual site clearance and
construction, but such fact shall not minimize the public purpose
of the acquisition. The owners of the lands at the time of the
acquisition shall have the first right to enter into leases thereof
with the county until the lands are needed for expressway
construction. Lands so leased for more than one year shall be subject to general property taxation during the term of the lease. All
rentals shall be credited to the project or to the expressway land
acquisition account. The board may provide out of funds acquired
by bond issue or otherwise a land acquisition fund not in excess
of $5,000,000 of expendable funds at any one time, to be used primarily for the acquisition of lands, improvements thereon and
interests therein as specified in this subsection prior to the
approval of the specific expressway project for which the lands or
interests will be required. The fund shall be adjusted to reflect
acquisition costs for lands and interests therein thereafter incorporated in specific approved expressway projects by transferring
both the appropriations and the acquisition costs therefor to the
proper expressway improvement expenditures account.
3. When an expressways project for which lands, improvements thereon and all interests therein have been paid for from any
expressway land acquisition fund or account becomes activated
by the board, the department of transportation may reimburse the
expressway land acquisition fund by allocation of funds which
may be made available under any state or federal statute to reimburse prior disbursements from the land acquisition fund to
acquire the lands, improvements thereon or interests therein or
appurtenant thereto. All state or federal funds thus received shall
be used for expressway purposes.
4. The board, in acquiring lands, improvements on lands and
interests in lands and appurtenant to lands, as provided in this subsection, may acquire the lands in fee simple or by easement for
highway purposes as it may by order determine. In any such
acquisition, the board may, and shall when requested by the
department of transportation, act in the name of the state as the
agent of the department of transportation and in other cases shall
act in the name of the county. The board in making the acquisition
may proceed under ch. 32.
5. Whenever, before actual expressway project construction,
a saving is shown to be probable in the cost of constructing a proposed new municipal or privately owned public utility, which, if
presently installed in a public way in a proposed normal manner,
would ultimately be interfered with by expressway construction,
by initially constructing the municipal or privately owned public
utility in other than a normal manner to accommodate future
expressway construction, in order to effect savings by avoiding
reconstruction and relocating at a later date, the board may contract with the municipal government or utility company involved
for the construction of the public utility in other than normal manner and to pay to the municipal government or utility company the
portion of the cost of the special construction in excess of the cost
if constructed in the proposed normal manner, the funds for which
may be taken from the land acquisition fund authorized in subd.
2.
6. When the board has acquired title to lands in fee either for
the county or the state, the county or a person authorized by the
county may use and develop any portion of the lands not directly
needed for expressway−roadway purposes and which do not interfere with the primary expressway purpose, and without limitation
because of enumeration may use the subsoil beneath the ground,
the ground level area or air space above the ground, for parking,
storage or building purposes subject to municipal land use zoning
regulations except as to parking, but if the expressway right−of−
way area is either on the federal interstate system or on a state

trunk highway, the county shall obtain the consent of the department of transportation to the development and use prior to
construction or initiation of that use. The state shall receive a
share of the rentals or sale price derived from the use in the proportion that the amount of federal or state funds used in the purchase
of the site bears to the total cost of the land and improvement
which is the subject of the sale or rental. Such sharing shall not
be made until the county or the person authorized by the county
has been reimbursed for all sums expended by it, in the developments referred to in this paragraph, and such sharing shall terminate when the fair proportion of the federal and state funds allocable to the purchase of the area so developed has been reimbursed.
In lieu of sharing in the proportion of the amount of federal or state
funds used in the purchase of the site to the total cost of the land
and improvement which is the subject of the sale or rental, the state
and the county or the person authorized by the county may share
the rentals or sale price on the basis of a different formula for such
sharing if the department of transportation and the county agree
to a different formula.
7. Before the county authorizes any person to use or develop
lands under subd. 6., the county shall make a reasonable effort to
determine whether any institution of higher education in the vicinity of the lands has demonstrated to the county an interest in the
use or development of the lands. The county shall give preference
to proposals for the use or development of lands under subd. 6.
which are submitted by an institution of higher education in the
vicinity of those lands and which provide for reasonable payment
to the county under a lease of or other authority to use or develop
those lands.
(e) Contracts. The board may construct and administer projects under its jurisdiction, and may contract in the name of the
county with the department of transportation as may be necessary
under state and federal statutes to secure state and federal aid on
expressway projects.
(f) Vacation, relocation, reconstruction of streets, alleys, etc.
1. Whenever the board determines that it is necessary for the
proper construction of an expressway project that streets or alleys
be vacated in whole or in part, or be dead−ended at the expressway
right−of−way line; that existing streets or alleys be relocated; that
new streets or alleys be laid out and opened; that accessory streets
or ramps to serve as approaches to the expressway be constructed;
that existing streets leading to or from expressway ramps be designated as one−way streets for such reasonable distance as is necessary for the proper operation of the facility; that the grade of existing streets be changed or that the traveled portion of existing
streets be widened and improved so as to facilitate entrance to the
expressway, it shall formulate a tentative order evidencing such
requirement and file a certified copy thereof with the municipal
clerk of each municipality affected by the tentative order for consideration thereof by the governing body of the municipality.
2. The governing body or the committee which the governing
body designates shall hold a public hearing to consider the tentative order and shall publish in the county a class 2 notice, under
ch. 985, of the hearing.
3. If the tentative order is not approved within 90 days from
the date of the filing, the board shall present the tentative order to
the department of transportation, which shall hold a public hearing on the order, of which hearing the municipality in question
shall be given notice. The department of transportation shall have
jurisdiction to pass upon the necessity and reasonableness of the
proposed tentative order, and it may approve, modify and approve
or disapprove the order. The department’s decision shall be final,
with no review allowed under ch. 227.
4. If the tentative order is approved by the governing body of
the municipality affected, or if it is approved or modified and
approved by the department of transportation, the board may
thereafter issue a final order identical with the original tentative
order as modified by the department’s decision. A certified copy
of the final order shall be filed with the municipal clerk of the

municipality affected. Notice of the making of the order shall be
published in the county as a class 1 notice, under ch. 985.
5. The governing body of the municipality shall, within 30
days after filing, take the necessary action to comply with the
order and in so doing shall not be limited by the objections of an
abutting owner, and s. 66.1005 (2) shall not be applicable to any
vacation or discontinuance required by the order, and any such
municipality may act upon the initiative of its governing body
without the necessity of obtaining the consent of an abutting
owner, notwithstanding chs. 60, 61, 62 and 66 and s. 66.1005 (2)
and any other provisions of law to the contrary.
6. If the municipality does not comply with the order within
a reasonable time, the board may perform the work required by the
order with its own forces or by contract and in so doing and for
such purpose shall have the same powers and freedom from limitations as are vested by chs. 60, 61, 62 and 66 and this subsection
in the governing body of the municipality.
7. The plans, specifications, proposed contracts and the
appraisal of damages, if any, caused to abutting owners by compliance with the order shall be subject to approval by the board
before the commencement of any work under the order but the
requirement for approval of the order shall not affect the abutting
property owners’ rights of appeal from the determination of damages by the commissioner of public works of the city or by any
other authorized person or body.
8. The cost of performing such work as may be required by
any order of the board under this subsection, including damages
granted for changes of legally established grade or necessary
acquisition of lands, shall be paid by the county from expressway
funds as an item of the particular expressway project budget upon
presentation of vouchers which have been approved for payment
by the governing body of the municipality and the board. If the
payment made by the county has been increased by reason of the
municipality requesting an expenditure in excess of replacement
or termination costs, the municipality shall reimburse the county
for the excess cost. The reimbursement shall be credited by the
county to abatement of the respective expense for which it was
received.
(g) Relocation of municipal utilities. 1. The board, subject to
approval by the public service commission after public hearing to
all interested parties in cases in which the public service commission would have jurisdiction, may by order require any municipality through which an expressway project is to be constructed to
remove, relocate and replace in kind or with equal facilities, or if
the municipality shall request enlarged facilities, any sewer, street
lighting or other like utility service the location of which interferes
with construction of an expressway project. If enlarged facilities
are requested the municipality shall bear that part of the cost of the
improvement which exceeds the cost of the replacement of the
existing facility in kind or with equal materials or facilities. However the board shall bear the excess cost where the installation of
the enlarged facility is caused by designed construction and use of
the expressway. A certified copy of the order shall be filed with
the municipal clerk of each municipality affected and upon the filing each municipality shall within 30 days take the necessary
action to comply with the order. All plans, specifications and contracts for any of the work shall be subject to approval by the board.
When the work under specific contracts has been completed and
approved by the governing body of the municipality and the
board, the county shall pay for the work from expressway funds
as an item of the particular expressway project budget. If the payments made by the county exceed the replacement costs and the
additional cost was incurred at the specific request of the municipality, the municipality shall reimburse the county therefor. The
reimbursement shall be credited by the county as an abatement of
the expenses for which the reimbursement is received. If considered feasible and desirable by the board any work provided for in
this paragraph may be performed by the board or directly by con-

tract. In such cases the municipality in which the work is performed shall cooperate with the board.
2. With respect to any water utility of any municipality which
utility, in addition to providing water for human consumption,
performs governmental functions in the way of providing water
for fire protection, sewerage operation, street sanitation, park
bathing pools and the like, the board shall have the same powers
and be subject to the same obligations as are provided in subd. 1.
However, water storage tanks, water pumping stations and water
reservoirs may be removed, relocated and replaced by the board
only with the consent and approval of the municipality owning
and operating the facilities.
(h) Private occupancy of streets; relocation. 1. All persons
other than those mentioned in par. (g) lawfully having buildings,
structures, works, conduits, mains, pipes, wires, poles, tracks or
any other physical facilities in, over or under the public lands,
streets, highways, alleys, parks or parkways of the county, or of
any municipality therein, which in the opinion of the board in any
manner interfere with the construction of an expressway project
or the relocation or maintenance of such a project, shall upon order
by the board promptly so accommodate, relocate or remove the
interfering physical facilities.
2. Whenever the board proposes to consider adoption of an
expressway project, it shall give notice of the proposal to each privately owned public utility or other person affected by the project
indicating in the notice the action which it desires the utility or person to take, and the utility or person shall within 90 days after
receipt of the notice furnish to the board its plan to comply with
the request.
3. When the utility, under the board’s order, proceeds with the
work in a manner satisfactory to the board, the county shall pay
the utility from expressways funds upon monthly estimates of
work performed and submitted for payment by the utility, two−
thirds of the net cost incurred by the utility in performing the work,
after deducting reasonable and fair credits for items salvaged, for
any betterments made at the option of the company and for the
value as carried on the utility’s books, of the used life of a facility
retired from use if the service life of the new facility will extend
beyond the expectancy of the one removed. The county shall not
be liable to pay any value for utility facilities where use of the
facilities has been abandoned for reasons other than the construction or proposed construction of an expressway project even
though the installation is intact.
4. The board and any utility that is required to accommodate,
relocate or remove a utility facility described in subd. 1. may by
agreement provide for the respective amounts of the cost to be
borne by each so as to resolve a dispute as to the allowance of
charges and credits set forth in this paragraph. When the agreement has been concluded, the county shall pay out of expressway
funds its share of the cost upon monthly estimates of work performed and submitted for payment by the utility.
5. If the board and any privately owned public utility are
unable to agree as to the division of the costs, either may appeal
to the public service commission, which shall determine the
proper amounts of reimbursement according to the provisions
expressed in this paragraph. Either party may petition the circuit
court for review of the public service commission’s decision in the
manner provided in s. 227.53. If it is determined upon such review
that the county has paid more than two−thirds of the net cost of
compliance by a utility with the board’s order, any overage shall
be reimbursed to the county by the utility.
6. No appeal shall delay the construction of the expressway
project or compliance by the privately owned public utilities with
the orders of the board. Compliance shall not prejudice the rights
of either the board or the utilities in any pending appeal.
7. If a person refuses to comply with an order of the board as
promulgated under this paragraph, the board may apply to the circuit court for a writ of assistance to compel compliance, and the

person shall be liable for all damages caused to the board by the
delay.
8. If a railroad track and an expressway project cross, ss.
195.28 to 195.29 shall apply.
9. The reimbursement of private utilities under this paragraph
shall be limited to expressway projects as provided in this section.
(i) Entry on private lands. The board, its agents or servants,
may enter any land in the county for the purpose of making surveys, test borings or any other type of examination necessary in
the performance of its duties and shall be liable to restore the surface of the lands to the same or as good condition as existed at the
time of the entry and for any other actual and demonstrable damage caused to the lands by the entry.
(j) Traffic types and speed limits. After an expressway project
has been certified as completed, the public body having jurisdiction over the maintenance thereof shall have the power to regulate
the type of vehicular use of such portion of the expressway except
as limited by federal and state laws and regulations, and the power
to fix speed limits thereon not in excess of the maximum speed
limits for state trunk highways, and to provide and enforce reasonable penalties for infraction of such vehicular use regulation or
speed limits. Notwithstanding s. 346.16 (2), the use of the
expressways by pedestrians, mopeds, motor bicycles, motor
scooters, bicycles, electric personal assistive mobility devices,
off−road utility vehicles, funeral processions, and animals on foot
and the hauling of oversized equipment without special permit
shall be prohibited when an ordinance in conformity with this section and, with respect to prohibiting the use of electric personal
assistive mobility devices, in conformity with s. 349.236 (1) (a)
or (b) is enacted by the board, but a forfeiture provided therein
shall not exceed the maximum forfeiture under s. 346.17 (2). The
board may not prohibit the towing of disabled vehicles on expressways, except that the board may prohibit the towing of disabled
vehicles during the peak hours of 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. to
6:30 p.m. as established under county ordinance and except that
the board may establish procedures for and may contract for the
towing of vehicles which have become disabled on the expressway.
(k) Building permits on lands in expressway routes. Each
municipality through which a route of the approved expressway
plan, as amended from time to time, shall pass, shall be given a formal notice of the route and a map thereof. Thereafter, when an
owner of land within the right−of−way of an expressway indicated
on the map applies for a building permit affecting such lands, final
action on the application shall be deferred for a reasonable time
not exceeding 60 days and the municipality shall within 5 days
after receipt of the application notify the board thereof.
(L) Forces to construct expressway projects. The board may
use its own employees to construct expressway projects in whole
or in part.
(m) Rules and regulations. The board shall have power to
make all rules and regulations concerning its work.

the governing bodies of all municipalities in the county.
(o) Applicability of pars. (a) to (n). Paragraphs (a) to (n) also

of the board in the planning and construction of mass transit facilities.

engineering studies and reports pertaining to an expressways system in the city and county, together with all contracts pertaining
to the creation and construction of expressways. Upon demand by
the board the largest city in the county with the approval of the
common council shall execute and deliver to the county quitclaim
deeds of all lands acquired, dedicated or owned by the city and
needed for the purpose of right−of−way for the expressways, if the
cost of the lands was included in the determination of prior
expressway expenditures.
(6) REIMBURSEMENT FOR PRIOR EXPRESSWAY FINANCING.
Municipalities shall be reimbursed for prior expressway project
expenditures. Expressway projects under construction at the time
the county expressway and transportation commission was
created and the transfer of functions to the commission was effectuated under s. 59.965, 1977 stats., shall be completed by the
board. Such municipalities shall be reimbursed for prior expressway expenditures and obligations incurred for the cost of right−
of−way acquisition and clearance, construction engineering, and
actual construction to the extent of the municipalities’ contribution from tax levy or bond funds. Each such municipality shall
calculate its contribution and certify the contribution with full data
to the board. It shall then be subject to consideration, audit and
approval by the board. If approved by the board, reimbursement
shall be made on a 10−year installment basis by levying a tax
against all the municipalities of the county on an equalized valuation basis, and offsetting the amount thereof to the municipalities
entitled to reimbursement.
(7) AGREEMENTS FOR USE OF FEDERAL AID TO RETIRE MATURITIES. The department of transportation and the board may enter
into an agreement providing that when the proceeds of bonds
issued by the county are expended in the improvement of a portion
of the federal aid highway system as a part of the comprehensive
expressway system in the county, and are so expended under ch.
84, and in compliance with section 5 of the federal aid highway
act of 1950, or acts amendatory to such section, and regulations
applicable thereto, the sum of money derived from federal aid for
highways which may be authorized by the congress and apportioned to this state for any fiscal year as shall be stipulated in the
agreement may be applied to aid in retirement of annual maturities
of the principal indebtedness of such bonds, and that to the extent
that federal aid can be claimed and received by the state for such
purpose, it will upon receipt be paid to the county. Any money so
paid shall be deposited by the county in the sinking fund provided
for the retirement of the bond issue of which the bonds formed a
part.
(8) AGREEMENTS FOR STATE AID TO RETIRE MATURITIES. The
department of transportation may enter into a contract with the
board providing that, to the extent that the proceeds of bonds
issued by the county are expended under ch. 84 in the improvement of state trunk highways or connecting highways, in addition
to the agreed county share of the improvement and for which the
county has not been or will not be reimbursed with federal funds,
such sum as may be approved by the department of transportation
in any fiscal year will be paid to the county to aid in retirement of
the annual maturities of the principal indebtedness of the bonds
from funds appropriated and available to the department of transportation for the improvement of state trunk highways or connecting highways. Payments may be made under the agreement,
before or after the bonds mature, from funds appropriated and
available to the department of transportation for the improvement
of state trunk highways or connecting highways after making provision for adequate maintenance and traffic service, but this sec-

tion or the agreement shall not constitute a commitment on the part
of this state or the county to provide the funds. Any money so paid
shall be deposited by the county in its sinking fund created for the
purpose of payment of the bond issue of which the bonds formed
a part.
(9) STAFF. (a) Other departments and officers. The staff of the
county highway department, under the direction of the county
highway commissioner, shall perform all technical work required
by the board. Any municipality having an expressway staff shall,
upon request of the county board, transfer the staff to the county,
and the agents and employees of the municipal staff shall thereupon become integrated into county civil service in the county
highway department. The board may hire upon a contract basis
such expert consultant services as it considers necessary to assist
in the planning of the expressway system.
(b) Records and equipment. The board shall provide a suitable
place where the maps, plans, documents, and records of the board
that relate to this section shall be kept, subject to public inspection
at all reasonable hours and under reasonable regulations that the
board may prescribe.
(10) MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION. (a) Maintenance and
operation. Whenever any expressway project is opened to traffic,
the certification of such fact shall be filed with the clerk of the
municipality in which the project is located. The notice shall be
filed by the department of transportation in all cases where the
construction contract has been awarded by the department of
transportation, or by the board where the construction contract has
been awarded by the board. Thereafter the portion of the expressway system included in such opening shall be operated and maintained by the county, but if an expressway project is selected and
designated as a state trunk or interstate highway that portion of the
expressway shall be maintained by the state. The maintenance
responsibility of the county or state shall include all areas within
the right−of−way fence lines and between the right−of−way fence
lines and the curb lines of adjacent streets, except that connecting
ramps constructed as a part of the expressway system shall be
included in such maintenance to the near curb lines of the street
with which they connect. All areas not specifically included
within these described limits shall be maintained by the municipality in which the expressway is located, except that the state or
county shall maintain the structural parts of bridges carrying local
traffic over the expressway, including generally the footings,
piers, columns, abutments and structural girders.
(b) Policing of expressways. Expressways shall be policed by
the sheriff who may, when necessary, request and shall receive
cooperation and assistance from the police departments of each
municipality in which expressways are located, but nothing in this
paragraph shall be construed to deprive such police departments
of the power of exercising law enforcement on such expressways
within their respective jurisdictions.
(11) DESIGNATED STANDING COMMITTEE. The board may designate a standing committee to perform the duties and to exercise
the powers of the board under this section, except those powers
and duties in sub. (2) (a) and (b). All actions of the standing committee under this section may be modified and shall be approved
or disapproved by the board.

Thought you would want to know this if you don't already.
On another note, Dan's father had a massive stroke earlier in the week and
passed away yesterday. In case you want to send him a card or something.
I have actually been thinking about you alot these last few days. We got the
budget rolled out, set levy targets, completed the five year projections and
are in the midst of doing the rating agency meetings -- the last one is today.
The MPM issue is still not resolved (through no fault of the County's) but I
think we are close. I am not confident it will be a long-term fix, but we will
get past the election. :)
I hope you are doing ok. I hear from Rob and Alex that you are happy. That is
a good thing. You deserve it. Sorry about lunch with Klauser. We had an
unusually long Finance Committee that day and as I suspected would be the case,
we did not finish in time for me to make it.
I will give you a call next week and check in.
PS -- And yes, Sue is already driving me nuts. She was so out of control a few
weeks ago, I actually hung up on her. Yikes!

During late 2006, it became apparent to the financial oversight committee that MPM’s
cash flow could not support the level of debt held by MPM in light of revenue and
admission trends. As a result, the County Board Chair and the County Executive at the
urging of the Oversight Committee, appointed the Museum Recovery Committee to study
and develop recommendations to sustain the long-term financial viability MPM. The
Museum Recovery Committee consists of MPM stakeholders including representatives
from the donor community, the banks, the County and MPM. The recovery Committee
has evaluated a number of options including leveraging additional donor funds with the
possible restructuring of MPM debt and possible additional capital and cash contributions
by the County. The work of this Committee is currently ongoing.

During late 2006, it became apparent to the financial oversight committee that MPM’s
cash flow could not support the level of debt held by MPM in light of revenue and
admission trends. As a result, the County Board Chair and the County Executive at the
urging of the Oversight Committee, appointed the Museum Recovery Committee to study
and develop recommendations to sustain the long-term financial viability MPM. The

        Parks Committee Report





I spoke to Sup. DeBruin about an hour ago. She said the reason that she would
like a report scheduled for Parks on Thursday on Parks staffing is that her
Committee still does not have a clear indication as to where Parks stands with
its staffing heading into the summer, that there are still rumors of pools not
opening, etc., and that she was informed that the key to all of this was how
DAS was going to come down on the AFSCME positions that were not fully funded
in the budget. We mutually agreed that there should be a written report before
the Committee -- jointly signed by the Parks Director and the Fiscal and Budget
Administrator -- that does not lay out the full staffing plan, but simply
describes how the issues between Parks and DAS have been worked out and whether
there are any programmatic impacts.
I would like to ask Parks to prepare that report -- which certainly does not
need to be more than a page or two -- and to get a draft to Cindy ASAP. In
light of the fact that Parks meets on Tuesday, we really need to try to get
this to the Board by close of business tomorrow. Thanks.

Date:

Chairman Lynne De Bruin, Parks, Energy & Environment Committee

From:

Sue Black, Director, Department of Parks, Recreation and Culture
Cynthia Archer, Fiscal and Budget Administrator, DAS

Subject:

Updated 2007 Parks Department Allocation and Staffing Plan –
Informational Report Only

ISSUES
At the request of the Chairman of the Parks, Energy & Environment Committee, the
Parks Director and the Department of Administrative Services Fiscal and Budget
Administrator respectfully submits this updated informational report on the preliminary
2007 Parks Department staffing and expenditure plan as it relates to the 2007 Parks
Department Tax Levy Distribution.
BACKGROUND
2007 Revenue Budget:
In 2007, the Milwaukee County Department of Parks, Recreation, and Culture, DPRC, was
given an Adopted Revenue Budget of $18,129,501. Based on the historical operating
revenues, the DPRC has implemented an internal revenue reduction plan similar to the
plans that have been used for the past three years. For 2007, the internal target that the
DPRC is proposing to achieve is $16.8 million. This is an internal reduction from the
Adopted Revenue Budget of approximately $1.3 million. If the revenue collections exceed
the internal revenue target, the DPRC is prepared to allocate these additional balances to
field operations.
The following table represents the Adopted Budget with the cautious revenue predictions
that will not allow for expenditures until revenues are realized.
2007 Adopted Revenue Budget $18,129,501.00
Unrealized Revenues
($1,300,000.00)
Net Internal Revenue Budget $16,829,501.00

CArcher_Email3012709

2007 Expenditure Budget:
In 2007, the Milwaukee County Department of Parks, Recreation, and Culture, DPRC, was
given an Adopted Expenditure Budget of $40,241,200. This amount contained a lump sum
reduction of $2.3 million in personal services – salaries, related to the restoration of the Park
Maintenance Worker 1, PMW-1, positions that had be slated to be abolished.
DC48 Contract Adjustment:
We have recently completed reviewing the impacts of the 2007 - DC48 Contract Budget
Adjustments that were recently proposed by DAS and approved by the County Board as
it impacts the staffing for the Parks Department. The approved adjustments will result in
the following changes to the Parks Departments Budget for 2007:
•
•
•

Account 5199, Salaries, will be increased by $1,715,445
Account 5312, Social Security, will be increased by $131,228
Account 5401, Fringe Benefits, will be decreased by $707,241

2007 Staffing Plan:
Based on the total available funding, the DPRC developed a preliminary staffing plan for
2007. The total funding available for all positions totaled $17,542,301. The following tables
represent how this funding was allocated in 2007.
2007 Funding Distribution:
Adopted Budget
DC48 Settlement
Gross Adj. Budget

$15,826,856.00
$1,715,445.00
$17,542,301.00

Total Available Funding
Perm Salaries
Gross Seasonal Budget

$17,542,301.00
($11,600,000.00)
$5,942,301.00

Internal Revenue Adjustment
Adj. Gross Seasonal Budget

($1,300,000.00)
$4,642,301.00

As the tables above reflect, the Adjusted Gross Seasonal Budget available to the DPRC is
$4,642,301. Based on the staffing and spending from 2006, the DPRC was facing a seasonal
expenditures reduction of $412,176 in 2007.
2006 Seasonal Expenditures
2007 Seasonal Base Budget
06-07 Change (to pay for PMW1’s)

$5,054,477.28
$4,642,301.00
($412,176.28)

Resolution:

CArcher_Email3012710

In order to resolve the issues facing the DPRC in 2007, the DPRC and DAS reviewed the
critical positions required by the DPRC and determined that an additional $500,000
would be allotted to the DPRC from DAS and $200,000 would be internally reallocated
from the DPRC budget.
During these discussions, it was agreed that DAS would attempt to find savings in the
4th quarter of the year to reallocate to Parks to cover the unfunded costs of $500,000
from other areas of county government.
The source of the internally reallocated funds from the DPRC budget will be from the
unemployment compensation savings resulting from the fact the PMW1 were not laid
off and the budget was increased in anticipation of these positions being laid off.
With this level of seasonal funding, it appears that no additional reductions in services
will be required in 2007 and the DPRC will have the funding available to expand the
pool hours and operate the wading pools.
RECOMMENDATION
While this report is informational only, the major emphasis for the 2007 DPRC staffing
and allocation plan is to ensure that all variables that may impact the department have
been factored into the staffing and spending plans.
While this modified 2007 staffing and allocation plan meets the staffing needs for the
DPRC, it significantly reduces the DPRC flexibility to react to unfavorable conditions that
may impact revenues or expenditures.

MOODY'S ASSIGNS Aa3 WITH NEGATIVE OUTLOOK TO MILWAUKEE COUNTY'S (WI)
$31.595 MILLION GO CORPORATE PURPOSE BONDS, SERIES 2006A
Aa3 RATING AND NEGATIVE OUTLOOK AFFECTS $490.5 MILLION OF OUTSTANDING
PARITY DEBT, INCLUDING CURRENT ISSUE
Moody's Investors Service has assigned a Aa3 rating and negative
outlook to Milwaukee County's (WI) $32.6 million General Obligation
Corporate Purpose Bonds, Series 2007A. The bonds are secured by the
county's general obligation unlimited tax pledge and proceeds will
provide funds for the county's annual capital program. Concurrently,
Moody's has affirmed the Aa3 rating and negative outlook to outstanding
parity debt, which affects $490.5 million of outstanding general
obligation debt, including the current issue. The Aa3 rating is based
on the county's sizeable and increasingly diverse tax base, benefiting
from successful redevelopment efforts; narrow financial position,
facing significant budgetary pressures, including escalating benefit
costs and pension funding challenges; and manageable debt profile. The
negative outlook is based on Moody's expectation that the county's
financial operations will continue to face budgetary pressures that
challenge its existing narrow financial position.
DIVERSE ECONOMY WELL-BALANCED BETWEEN MILWAUKEE AND SUBURBS
Moody's expects Milwaukee County's sizeable and diverse $63.6 billion
tax base will continue to drive the regional economy of southeastern
Wisconsin. The county benefits from the considerable economic activity
generated within the City of Milwaukee (general obligation rated Aa2
with stable outlook), which comprises approximately 40% of the county's
taxable values and 60% of its population. The City of Milwaukee's
sizable manufacturing base - one of the largest in the Midwest - has
faced challenges similar to other industrial economies in recent
decades. While the global economy continues to pose competition for
heavy manufacturing interests, the region's manufacturing base appears
to have stabilized, focused more on smaller and more specialized
industries. The overall decline of the manufacturing base has also had
the beneficial impact of forced diversification, resulting in a growing
service sector that provides additional employment opportunities to
metropolitan area residents in the financial, governmental, and health
care areas. Moody's believes that the surrounding suburbs within the
county, whose socioeconomic indices range from average to very affluent,
such as Wauwatosa (Aaa) and Whitefish Bay (Aa2), provide additional
diversity and stability. Growth in the county's equalized valuation has
been increasingly robust, averaging a healthy 8.8% annually over the
last five years - reflecting strong growth in the regional housing
market as well as successful redevelopment efforts. While the
Milwaukee housing market has slowed somewhat, similar to overall
national trends, non-housing new construction remains strong and tax
base growth is expected to continue.
Overall, county resident income levels are slightly below the state
average, growing at a slower rate than the state, due primarily to the
City of Milwaukee's relatively high poverty rate (20%) that is somewhat
offset by wealth in the suburban cities. The county’s poverty rate is a
more moderate 15.3%, but still exceeds state and national rates. Full
value per capita is a healthy $69,511. Economic growth in the fivecounty metropolitan region has led to population declines for City of

Milwaukee, which have been largely offset by growth in the suburban
portions of the county. The county's overall population has decreased
by 2% from the 1990 to 2000 Census counts.
COUNTY OFFICIALS CONTINUE TO ADDRESS ONGOING FINANCIAL CHALLENGES
Moody's believes the county's financial operations will continue to
face significant near-term structural challenges that will strain an
already narrow financial position. The county's historically narrow
reserves - in part a result of statutory limitations - have declined
further in recent years related to unexpected budgetary variations.
Ongoing deficit spending of the county's Aging CMO program that
contributed to operating deficits in prior years has been corrected,
resulting in increased reimbursements from the state over a four year
period, which officials project will eventually offset previous
deficits, starting with a $3 million surplus in FY2005. Favorably, the
deficit repayment amounts have exceeded expectations, and
reimbursements will have been caught up by the end of FY2007. As of
FY2004, the county's General Fund balance stood at $8.9 million, or a
narrow 1.2% of General Fund revenues - reflecting over $10 million in
draws over FY2003 and FY2004. Historically, the county has maintained
adequate cash flow liquidity throughout the year despite narrow
reserves, based on GAAP modified accrual accounting. Property taxes are
received in the first quarter, with a large portion received in January
and February (approximately $90 million), offsetting a fairly tight
liquidity position at year-end. Recognizing a narrowed position and a
projected deficit, the county made significant mid-year corrections in
FY2005, to insure balanced operations - most significantly, a $10.5
million expenditure reduction across all major departments, largely
consisting of recurring personnel cost savings. On a budgetary basis,
this resulted in a $3.8 million surplus and an even healthier $15.1
million GAAP surplus. The difference is due to XXXXXXX.
Moody's notes that, while the county aims to regain financial stability
and ultimately replenish reserves, the county’s narrow reserve position
is limited in its ability to absorb any substantial unfavorable budget
variances. Preliminary estimates for FY2006 indicate a moderate $2
million budgetary-basis surplus, reflecting the net impact of
unfavorable budgetary and positive revenue variances, particularly in
excess CMO reserves and improved investment earnings. FY2007 is also
facing unfavorable variances in juvenile corrections, behavioral health
services, and housing and economic development, which are expected to
be more than offset by budgeted contingencies and the remaining excess
CMO reimbursements. Moody’s believes that the county’s adopted
practice to budget conservatively, including the use of contingency
budgeting are significant steps that serve to mitigate the impact of
negative budget variances.
Favorably, the county has made significant inroads to reducing the
county's largest expenditure pressures in regards to the pension system
and employee and retiree health care costs. Moody’s believes that the
concessions gained from employee bargaining units and recent settled
contracts will moderate benefit expenditure pressures as well as
provide long-term relief for the pressured pension system. While
pension benefit enhancements enacted in 2001 have posed greater
expenditure pressures than originally projected, benefits have largely

been successfully scaled back to bring projected expenditures more in
line with original cost projections.
The county's primary revenue sources, intergovernmental (33% of core
revenues), property taxes (28%), charges for services (26%) and sales
taxes(7.4%) also face limitations, with stagnant state share revenue,
a statutory levy freeze, and stagnating sales tax collections. The
county has a practice of limiting levy increases and has not levied up
to statutory caps in 2006 or 2007. While additional levy capacity is
expected to be allowed for, based on the Governor’s proposed biennial
budget, the county will only levy what it considers necessary to
maintain stable financial operations. Stagnating sales taxes have been
exacerbated by problems with the state’s reporting system, which
requires the county to repay nearly $2 million of previously collected
sales taxes. While this repayment is expected to be netted out of
future collections over time, it will likely result in overall stagnant
to declining revenues from year to year. Sales tax collections fell
short of budgeted collections in FY2005, FY2006, and are likely to fall
short again in FY2007. With stagnating revenue streams and limited
flexibility to raise revenues without legislative changes, Moody's
believes that structural corrections on the expenditure side will be
particularly important for maintaining sustained financial health.
MANAGEABLE DEBT PROFILE EXPECTED TO REMAIN STABLE DUE TO RAPID PAYOUT
AND NON-PROPERTY TAX SUPPORT
While the county's overall debt burden is above average at 4.2%,
Moody's expects this to be manageable, given rapid payout of direct
obligations at 88.1% in ten years, support from non-property tax
sources, and ongoing growth and appreciation of the tax base. Debt
service continues to represent a manageable portion of core
expenditures at 5.0% in FY2005. Moody's believes future borrowing will
be manageable, with approximately $30 million planned annually for
general corporate purposes. The county has adopted formal debt
management policies limiting any general purpose debt issuance and will
continue to have all airport bonds paid exclusively from airport
revenues. The county is also exploring options to issue Pension
Obligation Bonds to fund a $441 million unfunded actuarially accrued
liability in its pension fund. While this would increase the county’s
debt burden, Moody’s notes that the fixed debt would be financing a
soft liability, and result in net cost savings based on current pension
funding projections.
OUTLOOK:
The negative outlook is based on the county's narrowed financial
position that faces significant budgetary pressures due to statutory
revenue constraints and expenditure growth particularly related to
pension and benefit costs.
What would change the rating UP-Stabilization of financial operations and a replenishment of General
Fund reserves, including budget stabilization reserves.
-Ability to achieve sustainable structural balance, despite revenue
limitations.

Kat, I am still sick and won't be in today. There is a 9:00 Parks Committee
meeting at which the joint memo from Sue Black and I is on the agenda. Alex
worked on this. Either she or Rob could attend in my absence. Also, the tour
of the Airport is today. Please have Molly and Chad proceed with it (don't
reschedule it).

I am feeling a little better. If you need to reach me, you can do so at my
apartment.

Thanks.

Cindy/Terry/Steve,
I wanted to get back together with you all to review where we are at in this
recovery plan process. MPM has a bank proposal that we still have issues with
and are responding to this week. We also have an agreement with Cudahy on the
DW building purchase as well as commitments on the down payment funding. We
have also received some commitments on funding that would be part of the $5M
match on the challenge grant from the Bradley Foundation. I would like to
discuss this with you as some of it has implications for what we would need to
do in amending the lease and management agreement.
Would you be available on Friday to discuss? I have a 10 AM meeting that day
but otherwise I am open. Please let me know.
Thank you,
Mike

department staff responsible for billing and collection functions with the goal
of establishing a strategic plan for creating a centralized collection unit

substantive past due account balances. The first meeting of the work group is
scheduled for Tuesday, May 22 at 10:30 (CH 308) and you have been identified
as a representative from your department who should attend. Please mark your

Mike, I was very sorry to hear the below. Of course you can use me as a
reference. Below is the info.
The same thing happened to me at the state after 17 years in. The election
came, new governor and new Department Head and I was out with no opportunity to
even have a conversation about it. This is the downside of working at the
highest levels of government. All I can tell you is see it for what it is and
don't take it personally. You know what you accomplished and what you are
proud of and no one can take that away from you.
Keep me posted on how you are doing.

I hope all is well in Milwaukee, you will have a blast this summer enjoying all

2007 Budget -- Projections

As is the case in each fiscal year, the County will have to carefully monitor
the following areas of concern and take corrective action as needed to
ensure 2007 budget remains balanced.

2007 Budget Pressures

Required unbudgeted investments in mental health services -- $1.7 million
Estimated sales tax shortfall -- $1.9 million
Increased juvenile corrections population -- $1.9 million
Projected Housing and Economic Development revenue shortfall – $980,000

Projected Revenues Available:

2007 budget includes $3.1 million in a contingency fund to meet unexpected
spending needs/revenue shortfalls in 2007
Expected unbudgeted transfer of excess Care Management Organization (CMO)
revenue will add approximately $2.7 million to the contingency fund in 2007,
bringing the total available to $5.8 million
Passage of Governor’s budget bill could reduce the impact of juvenile corrections
population increases for 2007
Early employee health trends are positive and could produce further savings

Page 11

CArcher_Email3012751

2008 Budget Outlook

2008 Budget Pressures Include:

Increased wages and social security
Increased employee fringe benefit costs
Increased pension contribution
OPEB liability increase
Increased general obligation debt service

Preliminary funding gap projected for 2008 ≈ $26.6million-$39.8
million

Projected structural imbalance will require expenditure reductions,
revenue enhancements where possible and continued attention to costcontainment measures to ensure a balanced budget

Page 12

CArcher_Email3012752

Meeting the Challenge: Employee Compensation and
Fringe Benefits

Settlement of labor agreements for 2007 and 2008

Reached agreement with 3 of 8 labor unions including the County’s largest
union (AFSCME) representing almost 80% of total represented staff.

Agreements include modest pay increases

Agreements contain employee health care concessions

1% November 2007
1% April 2008
1% June 2008
1% October 2008

Increased co-pays and deductibles
Restructuring of premiums to encourage steerage to lower cost plans

Agreements reduce the impact of 2001 benefit enhancements by:

Eliminating the pension backdrop payment for all new hires
Reducing sick leave payouts for eligible employees from 100% to a maximum of
25% of time earned after implementation date

Page 13

CArcher_Email3012753

Meeting the Challenge: Employee Compensation and
Fringe Benefits
Establishment of Employee Wellness and Disease Management Program by
January 2008 will target high end users and provide additional opportunities
for further health care savings
2007 Budget included the creation of the new Employee Benefits Division,
including a new senior fiscal position
The County engaged the services of a benefits advisory consulting firm to
assist with the creation and design of the new division, development of data
models and identification of further opportunities for health care savings
Enhance analysis of health care cost and utilization data
Data- driven approach will provide Milwaukee County leverage with negotiations with
health care providers

In 2006, the County moved from a fully-insured health plan to self insured.
Estimated savings of $18.7 million from 2006-2009
Gives the County access to previously unavailable employee health care data

Meeting the Challenge: Pension Obligation Bonds

Current Unfunded Liability

County’s current Pension Fund unfunded actuarial liability is $455 million
Requires budgeted contribution of $1.25 billion over next 28 years

County is seeking authorization from the State to issue Pension Obligation
Bonds to finance this liability, stabilize County contribution levels and gain
budgetary savings

Proposed Structure Includes:

$6.25 million in budgetary savings annually due to projected reduction in interest
rate from 8% to 6%
The County’s 1st year payment of approximately $28 million is used to establish a
stabilization fund to protect the County against poor market performance
The projected savings will enable the County to make regular annual contributions
to the stabilization fund
Bonds could be retired within 22 years vs the current 30-year amortization
schedule

Page 16

CArcher_Email3012756

Meeting the Challenge: Long-Term Projections and
Strategies

County uses five-year Capital Plan to strategically monitor capital needs and
coordinate capital spending and debt management policies

Fiscal Affairs Division has developed five-year fiscal projections that are
updated annually and utilized to develop annual budget targets and key
strategic and legislative lobbying initiatives

County Executive has asked each department to develop five-year goals; these
will be utilized to reinvigorate long-term strategic planning for Milwaukee
County

Page 17

CArcher_Email3012757

Goals for the Future

Remain Fiscally Sound

Continue Government Reform

Insure Public Safety

Protect Core Social Services

Increase Quality of Life

Upgrade Transportation Systems

Improve Environment for Jobs

I received word this afternoon that Milwaukee was chosen as a site for a child
support administrative cost audit. Two auditors plan to be here for a week,
beginning 6/19, to review administrative costs charged to the CSE program,
cooperative agreements and charges from the cooperative agreements.
I will keep you informed if I need your assistance or Scott Manske for copies
of the single audit for the previous three year time frame.
Thank you,

IMSD depreciation

Scott, Mary just stopped in my office and asked if the depreciation entry you
made that impacted IMSD was going to leave IMSD's budget in a deficit for
2006. I recall you told me this would "wash out" at the end or break even.
Can you tell me again? Thanks.

        Transit Deficit





I sat in on George Torres' one-on-one with the Exec earlier this week, and one
of the items we discussed was the Transit fiscal situation and our concern that
there are several huge issues in their budget about which they are not being
real forthcoming. The Exec again brought up the idea of sending them a memo at
the conclusion of this County Board cycle asking them for specific information
about their plans to address these issues and eliminate their deficit. We
talked about some specific points we wanted to make in the memo and he asked me
to draft something.
Attached is my shot at such a draft. All of you may be aware of other issues
that we should be raising and/or questions we should be asking. This is only
intended to get us started. Please review and make whatever modifications
and/or additions you think are appropriate. We should aim to get it out after
the Board meeting next Thursday. Also, I'm not sure whether he wants this to
come from DAS or from him. Thanks!

        Quarterly County Support Payment to MPM






I already spoke with Steve Abbey about the payment intercept issue. He thinks
if the County can schedule an electronic transfer to an MPM account the first
business day of each quarter (amount $875,594) versus the current check cutting
method, MPM and the banks can work out an arrangement for making the debt
service payments. Would there be an issue for the County in doing that?

The Treasurers Office can process electronic fund transfers. A request letter
should be submitted to them requesting that the Museum be paid via EFT. Each
quarter a wire transfer form would need to be sent to the Treasurers office to
initiate the transfer. It cannot be scheduled to happen automatically. They
need at least 48 hours lead time. The wire transfer form would be used in
lieu of a check request. If you have any additional questions, Rex Queen can
be contacted at 2-4040.

        Quarterly County Support Payment to MPM






I already spoke with Steve Abbey about the payment intercept issue. He thinks
if the County can schedule an electronic transfer to an MPM account the first
business day of each quarter (amount $875,594) versus the current check cutting
method, MPM and the banks can work out an arrangement for making the debt
service payments. Would there be an issue for the County in doing that?

As noted below, this can be done and I have put the request in. However it is
not automatic from our end. I will let you know if I need any info.
When did you need the next payment? I have the ability to advance it once we
have resolved the recovery plan.

I spoke to Scott about this and he indicated was could process the transfer now
and fix revenue issues later. My concern is that we need to get this done so
departments know what they have. Plus, it keeps getting referenced in Board
papers as not being done. Please talk to Scott and see what you can do to get
this moving.

I talked to Vanessa. She has been offered a job as a researcher at the ILL
Department of Revenue (ugh! boring!). I think I made some progress, but Alex
and Pam are both going to hit her up today and tonight. She wanted a week to
think, we agreed I would hear from her by close of Monday instead. At this
point, I would say it is about 60% vs 40% our favor. I am banking on Alex and
Pam to bring the bacon home!

Oh, she said the ILL job offered $5k more. I told her I would have to look at
that. The standard of living is better in Milwaukee plus we have such
lucrative time off provisions -- I hate to have to go up that high. I told her
first things first and we should talk on Monday.

BBE waiver
Wednesday, May 16, 2007 11:37:48 AM
Natalie Feggestad Resume.doc

Terry (and Freida), per our conversation on the phone I have attached Natalie
Feggestad's resume. I was not able to reach Freida today but it is my
understanding that Manske submitted a request for a DBE waiver.
As we discussed, Natalie is a CPA and a past Finance Director. She is
currently in graduate school and has agreed to work a couple days of week for
Milwaukee County over the summer. She returns to graduate school in the fall.
With everything on Manske's plate, Natalie is a person that can easily pick up
some of the core finance director type tasks (meeting with auditors, closing
the books, training, assist with recruiting the deputy position, etc.). This
is a stop gap measure for a small amount of money until we are able to move
ahead on creating and filling the deputy as instructed by the Finance and Audit
Committee. In terms of the actual duties, please talk to Scott directly since
that was worked out between him and Natalie. Any help you could be would be
appreciated.
I am out the rest of the day but will be in tomorrow. Thanks.

Thanks. It is really a win-win - she needed to pick up some hours over the
summer and she has worked for me in the past and can accomplish part-time what
most people do full time. I am pleased Manske was open to the help (you know
how he can be. :)
Can you help convince Cooley that this is a waiver that really needs to be
done????? She is ready to start when we give her the go ahead.

BBE waiver

Terry (and Freida), per our conversation on the phone I have attached Natalie
Feggestad's resume. I was not able to reach Freida today but it is my
understanding that Manske submitted a request for a DBE waiver.
As we discussed, Natalie is a CPA and a past Finance Director. She is
currently in graduate school and has agreed to work a couple days of week for
Milwaukee County over the summer. She returns to graduate school in the fall.
With everything on Manske's plate, Natalie is a person that can easily pick up
some of the core finance director type tasks (meeting with auditors, closing
the books, training, assist with recruiting the deputy position, etc.). This
is a stop gap measure for a small amount of money until we are able to move
ahead on creating and filling the deputy as instructed by the Finance and Audit
Committee. In terms of the actual duties, please talk to Scott directly since
that was worked out between him and Natalie. Any help you could be would be
appreciated.
I am out the rest of the day but will be in tomorrow. Thanks.

Thanks. It is really a win-win - she needed to pick up some hours over the
summer and she has worked for me in the past and can accomplish part-time what
most people do full time. I am pleased Manske was open to the help (you know
how he can be. :)
Can you help convince Cooley that this is a waiver that really needs to be
done????? She is ready to start when we give her the go ahead.

The Treasurers Office can process electronic fund transfers. A request letter
should be submitted to them requesting that the Museum be paid via EFT. Each
quarter a wire transfer form would need to be sent to the Treasurers office to
initiate the transfer. It cannot be scheduled to happen automatically. They
need at least 48 hours lead time. The wire transfer form would be used in
lieu of a check request. If you have any additional questions, Rex Queen can
be contacted at 2-4040.

I already spoke with Steve Abbey about the payment intercept issue. He thinks
if the County can schedule an electronic transfer to an MPM account the first
business day of each quarter (amount $875,594) versus the current check cutting
method, MPM and the banks can work out an arrangement for making the debt
service payments. Would there be an issue for the County in doing that?

Re: Election Commission Target

This is more signficant than I was orignally told. Whose levy target do you
suggest we reduce or how would you suggest we make this up given our levy
target distribution already leavee a $12 million hole not counting the deficits
from this year that will carry over on top of the $12 million hole. This is
not a minor adjustment. Simply increasing their levy target does not address
the underlying issue.

Yes, 2002 was an aberration due to the fact that their were 6 or 7 special

        Election Commission Target





Hi Cindy and RobWe need to get a new 2008 Target to the Election Commission. 2008 is a
Presidential Election year. The 2008 Target we sent to them was $538,898. Their
fringe adjustment for 2008 is ($1,211) and the debt adjustment is ($23,533).
Here is a history of their Tax Levy in prior 4+ election (including
presidential election years in red) years:
2000 Actual $714,968
2002 Actual $1,513,590
2004 Actual $974,070
2006 Budget $941,013
The average of the above years is $1,035,910. I am not sure what happened in
2002 but it appears to be an outlier - although it may be because of the County
election with the recalls etc. I think we need to increase it to about $900K to
$1M. Let me know your thoughts so I can get them a new target next week

Alex

Scott, I really, really need your first quarter report as we discussed. I have
to let Rob know if we are recommending a corrective action plan for the June
cycle. I am out the last week of the month. I need you to make this your top
priority. If you are working on other things like collective bargaining, we
need to go talk to Rob about your priorities. Please get back to me if you are
having a problem getting this done so we can figure out what to do. Thanks.

Fw: first quarter report
Friday, May 18, 2007 8:11:27 AM

I want to put the below email in context. I look back at past corrective
action plans and they are always submitted with a quarterly projection by the
Controller and the FABA. We discussed this at our team meeting and I was going
to have each budget analyst work off of the reports sent to Scott for their
assigned area. Then it became clear that Scott usually did the report and he
agreed to do it. I talked to him and coaxed him into making this a priority
and he said I would get something by yesterday.

Rob, no fault to Scott, but I always feel my requests to Scott fall to the
bottom of his pile below his work on health care, law suits, collective
bargaining, ceredian, etc. He likes those projects and I know he needs to be
involved in them. I need a finance director that can attend to the core
finance duties. His work on these projects has impacted our ability to close
the books, get a re-estimate of 2006 ending balance (which would have been
helpful when I was doing our five-year projections) and Pam's ability to finish
carryovers. I have tried to be patient, but I can tell you I am not getting
what I need to do my job from him. I only say this because it reinforces our
need for a deputy and because I am frustrated because it also impacts my
ability to do my job. Again, I am not being critical of Scott. But yesterday
when I heard him telling you he needed to cost out some things for the
Sheriff's collective bargaining and I knew the other things that he would not
be able to get to I knew then I was screwed. Quite frankly, I am tired of
having to beg him to do what I need and then settling for not getting it.

I am not asking you to do anything except understand how he is being pulled and
the impact. I have tried to work around it by getting analyst more involved in
things Scott would normally do but the result of that was that they then just
went to Scott which made the situation even worse.
It is a delicate situation becaus I know I can't push Scott any more than he is
already being pushed -- hence, my begging , coaxing and pleading -- which I
don't like either.

Scott, I really, really need your first quarter report as we discussed. I have
to let Rob know if we are recommending a corrective action plan for the June
cycle. I am out the last week of the month. I need you to make this your top
priority. If you are working on other things like collective bargaining, we
need to go talk to Rob about your priorities. Please get back to me if you are
having a problem getting this done so we can figure out what to do. Thanks.

I guess this is not a good morning for emails --
I know we have to do the below. But I think I need to modify my tone a bit
because I am worried that folks do not understand how tough our budget
situation is -- including our own staff. I need to do better at sending the
message that just because our rating agency presentation looked better -- we
still face significant challenges. The casual nature that the below is being
handled worries me. We will do what we have to do, but I need to start sending
a stronger message.

This is more signficant than I was orignally told. Whose levy target do you
suggest we reduce or how would you suggest we make this up given our levy
target distribution already leavee a $12 million hole not counting the deficits
from this year that will carry over on top of the $12 million hole. This is
not a minor adjustment. Simply increasing their levy target does not address
the underlying issue.

Yes, 2002 was an aberration due to the fact that their were 6 or 7 special

        Election Commission Target





Hi Cindy and RobWe need to get a new 2008 Target to the Election Commission. 2008 is a
Presidential Election year. The 2008 Target we sent to them was $538,898. Their
fringe adjustment for 2008 is ($1,211) and the debt adjustment is ($23,533).
Here is a history of their Tax Levy in prior 4+ election (including
presidential election years in red) years:
2000 Actual $714,968
2002 Actual $1,513,590
2004 Actual $974,070
2006 Budget $941,013
The average of the above years is $1,035,910. I am not sure what happened in
2002 but it appears to be an outlier - although it may be because of the County
election with the recalls etc. I think we need to increase it to about $900K to
$1M. Let me know your thoughts so I can get them a new target next week

Jim,
May 21 was timed so the Recovery Committee and MPM board could act
back-to-back. The Committee is set to meet at 3 and the MPM board at 4.
Remember the Committee vote is not binding so it would still be my hope we get
the weight of the Committee and board votes behind us and then the Exec and
Chair can still withhold their endorsements until they are satisfied. We must
make the June cycle of the County Board. Dan

The tone of this email is quite disturbing in that they just expect us to find
$85,000 to transfer to them.
The original deal was that the project was to be $1.23 million and that the
county's share ($984,000) was to come from a federal grant. They came to us in
January once the bids were open and identified a shortfall of $178,000. All I
was able to identify was $115,000 for this purpose and that was very difficult
given this was not a project eligible for County bonding. In February we went
to the Board and transferred all the bond proceeds surplus from 2005 and 2006
with the understanding that the remaining $63,000 shortfall would be theirs.
We took it from excess County access road funds.
I have no other excess funds to devote to this. There is a lease between the
Parks and the Friends that states any shortfall in fundraising will be covered
by the County and repaid by the Friends over the first six years of the lease
agreement. However, Pam and I have not been able to document if this lease was
ever signed.
The bottom line is there are no excess dollars to devote to this. The Parks
department needs to look at the lease and determine what the options are or
identify funding within the Parks to department to cover this assuming that is
the desire of the Administration and the Board. Even if the lease says they
can pay us back over 6-years, I do not know where the money would come from.
Again, the expectation was that the County match was from a federal grant. We
are now in essence devoting levy to this project. I also have concerns about
what the next construction problem will be as they continue to renovate such an
old structure.

Jim,
Earlier this Spring with the help of the County Executive and the County Board,
$115,000 was transferred to the Restoration from another account. With this
transfer and North Point Lighthouse Friends' willingness to start construction
with a deduction from the contract of some important 2d floor electrical work
and with no allowance for any contingency in the contract amount, Milwaukee
County accepted Burkhart Construction's low bid and commenced work.
North Point Lighthouse Friends are in the process of conducting a capital
campaign for the estimated $130,000 in funds estimated to complete the
project. Our new executive director, Jerilyn Bar, will make reaching this
target her and our Board's first priority.
Our Events Committee is concentrating on planning and development of our July
3, 2007 Light Up the Night Fundraiser at the Milwaukee Art Museum to raise
funds to cover the start up of our educational and programming activities and
operations. This will be supplemented by a general newsletter appeal to our
entire mailing list.
The first 8 weeks of construction have gone well, but were not without
surprises. In addition to the expected struggles to keep
CArcher_Email3012814

subcontractors/contractors within contract, in sorting through clapboard siding
to preserve or for replacement, we learned that the west side of the Keeper's
Quarters (which had been added to the original Quarters in 1928-30) was
supported by timbers that had rotted due to chronic roof leaks. We had planned
within the contract to replace a portion of the west foundation wall. However,
if you walk passed the construction site now, you will see that the west 10-15
feet of the Quarters has been removed from foundation to roof and must be
replaced.
We are doing our best to make savings wherever possible, but we realistically
must expect now to make good a contingency for this project. For planning
purposes, I believe we need or will soon need additional funding for the
restoration over an above our above targets. We thought that, at the time,
Milwaukee County transferred $115,000 to the construction fund, an available
funding source may have held an additional $85,000 which could then have been
transferred. We ask the County Executive's help now in transferring that
additional $85,000 now or, if that source doesn't exist or is no longer
available, in locating another County source of support.
If you and/or the County Executive has any question about this project, please
call me at 414-978 -5543. Thanks for your help in the past and for considering
this.

I understand. Suggestions from Parks would be helpful because I have tapped my
sources and this is not a bondable project which leaves me to look at operating
budgets. Parks would be the reasonable place to start if that is what you
would like us to do. Sue, any ideas?

Our Events Committee is concentrating on planning and development of our July
3, 2007 Light Up the Night Fundraiser at the Milwaukee Art Museum to raise
funds to cover the start up of our educational and programming activities and
operations. This will be supplemented by a general newsletter appeal to our
entire mailing list.
The first 8 weeks of construction have gone well, but were not without
surprises. In addition to the expected struggles to keep
subcontractors/contractors within contract, in sorting through clapboard siding
to preserve or for replacement, we learned that the west side of the Keeper's
Quarters (which had been added to the original Quarters in 1928-30) was
supported by timbers that had rotted due to chronic roof leaks. We had planned
within the contract to replace a portion of the west foundation wall. However,
if you walk passed the construction site now, you will see that the west 10-15
feet of the Quarters has been removed from foundation to roof and must be
replaced.
We are doing our best to make savings wherever possible, but we realistically
must expect now to make good a contingency for this project. For planning
purposes, I believe we need or will soon need additional funding for the
restoration over an above our above targets. We thought that, at the time,
Milwaukee County transferred $115,000 to the construction fund, an available
funding source may have held an additional $85,000 which could then have been
transferred. We ask the County Executive's help now in transferring that
additional $85,000 now or, if that source doesn't exist or is no longer
available, in locating another County source of support.
If you and/or the County Executive has any question about this project, please
call me at 414-978 -5543. Thanks for your help in the past and for considering
this.

levy targets
Friday, May 18, 2007 12:18:11 PM

Alex, we need to meet to go over if I am changing levy targets related to the
fringe. Parks is calling me and I don't recall what we are doing. I told them
to settle down because levy targets would not change unitl I authorize changes
and I have not done so. If we are going to change targets we need to get back
together so you can refresh me memory and memos will need to be drafted for my
signature. The same is true for the elections commission, I will need a memo
prepared for my signature. We also need to discuss sending a new memo to Rob
Henken regarding modified levy targets for IMSD due to signaficant depreciation
increases and what to do about the levy target we set for RM given the do not
get levy (will the rest of DAS have to eat their levy reduction?). The
increase in the levy target for IMSD will be offset by an increase in the
capital contra account so there will be no impact on the bottom line levy.
Please get the final number from Mary Reddin.

remote analysts
Friday, May 18, 2007 12:21:47 PM

I think we need to get the remote analysts in here and our staff and talk about
the outlook for 2008 (the projections and levy target process) and get feedback
from the remote analysts on how the budgets are going in their assigned
departments and if there are significant issues we should be aware of. Can you
make this happen? I will be out the last week of the month. Is next week
possible or should we do it the first week June?

RC Draft 052107 A.doc

Mike and Dan, I have tried to reach you by phone phone but have been
unsuccessful.
Here is the deal. I don't know what it is you are expecting at the Monday
meeting. It is clear from the message below that the final proposal has not
been and will not be available until closed session of the meeting. The County
reps are not in a position to take votes on something that we have not shared
with our leaders. Also, we asked for the debt schedule from the Banks and have
not yet received it. I also asked that language be added to clarify the
stipulations on the capital funding and that the language be removed regarding
the county sending payments directly to the bank. I have also asked our
corporation council to pull the lease amendments you are referring to so that
we can make the suggested changes -- I assume there will be negotiations over
the final language of these amendments. Finally, there is still some confusion
over the "firewall" issue related to the treatment of DW.
In any event, I cannot access and attachment on the below. If you have a
revised draft, it would be helpful if you send it to us now. I would also like
to know what the outstanding issues are with the bank that is being referenced
below and I need to know what the expectation is for Monday's meeting in terms
of an outcome.
I will do my best to meet with our Corporation Council on Monday but I can't
guarantee it will get done. Again, please resend the attachment noted below.

Thanks.

Milwaukee Public Museum Recovery Plan

Closed Session

Your jointly appointed Museum Recovery Committee has been meeting regularly since
February. The simple goal of the committee was to develop and endorse a plan that
would create a foundation, which would secure the Museum’s long-term fiscal viability.
The stakeholders on the committee included Milwaukee County, lenders - Chase and
M&I banks, the donor community, Discovery World, and the board and management of
MPM.
We are pleased to report the parties have verbally agreed on a package of actions to be
taken, each conditional upon the others, to provide financial support for the museum.
Each party will provide written confirmation of approvals by their respective
organizations. The following describes the terms under which each of the stakeholders
would perform:
Donor Community
The donor community has publicly announced a lead gift of $5 million through the
leadership of the Bradley Foundation and an anonymous donor. This gift is conditional
upon MPM raising a matching $5 million in donations as well as conditional upon actions
by the other stakeholders. The initial $5 million will be paid over a 3-year period with
the first $2 million available by December 2007, subject to conditions as specified in the
grant letter. The donated funds would be used to:
1. Pay down and eliminate the Term and Working Capital Line of Credit (Revolver)
Loans which were put in place through Chase and M&I banks and guaranteed by
Milwaukee County in June 2005. The County’s guarantee would be eliminated as
that debt is extinguished.
2. Reestablish Endowment funds that were borrowed and used for operations in
2002 - 2005.
Banks
The banks agree to restructure the remaining $16.7 million in long-term debt to be
amortized over a 10-year period at reduced rates. The restructuring, combined with the
debt elimination provided by the donors, would lower the MPM’s annual debt service
cost from its current level of over $1.2 million annually to $450,000 annually for a period
of years 1 – 5 and $825,000 annually for years 6 - 10. (See attached Schedule A). This
new agreement would go into effect July 1, 2007. In addition, as MPM raises nonEndowment related funds, such as for programs, facilities, and exhibits, the investment
earnings from those raised funds will be used, in part, for further debt reduction.

Draft – Confidential

Closed Session

Milwaukee County
Milwaukee County indicates they could provide support in certain key areas, which
would involve amending the current Lease and Management Agreement (“LMA”)
between the County and MPM, which is allowed for under Section 8.3:
1. Annual Operating Support - Guarantee annual appropriations to MPM at the 2006
level of funding for a period of 10 years beginning in 2008. This equates to
$3,502,376 per year. (Section 5.2)
2. Capital Improvement Commitment – Provide a minimum of $4.0 million over a
period of 5 years from 2008 to 2012 to address capital improvement projects
mutually agreed to by MPM and the County which are deemed eligible by the
LMA. (Section 5.9)
3. Amend termination provisions to reflect the 10-year agreement (amend the first
provision of the 5th amendment to the LMA)
4. Provide an exclusion clause for the Discovery World Real Estate and Personal
Property (Sections 4.1 and 4.2)
5. Transfer Discovery World ground lease provisions to MPM and have the term
consistent with the existing MPM ground lease.
6. During 2007, the County agrees to accelerate the July 1st payment to May 29th and
the October 1st payment to August 31st to aid MPM’s short-term cash flow issues.
The parties anticipate the Milwaukee County Board to vote on this agreement in the June
2007 cycle.
MPM, Inc.
Following the disclosure of the Museum’s financial crisis, MPM initiated improvements
in its financial controls and governance to eliminate the possibility of those circumstances
reoccurring. In addition, to size the operation to the income volume, MPM has reduced
operating expenses from $23.0 million in fiscal 2005 to $14.5 million in 2006 to a
projected $12.5 million in 2007. Staff levels have been reduced by 42% and additional
consolidating actions have further reduced operating expenses. In order to address shortterm cash needs in 2007, MPM will take further cost reduction actions and generate
additional donor support. More resources will be directed toward marketing efforts to
drive increases in attendance.
The MPM board and management will complete a Capital Campaign feasibility study,
establish leadership for the campaign, and launch the campaign. The goals of the
campaign will be to:
1. Provide matching funds for the $5 million challenge grant
2. Improve MPM permanent exhibits and educational programs
3. Provide funding of world class exhibits to bring to the community
4. Reestablish scientific resources and expertise in curatorial and research areas
5. Add new exhibits and programs
6. Fund additional debt reduction
7. Grow the museum’s endowment funds to support mission-related activities
The campaign assumes raising a minimum of $25 million in addition to the $10 million
raised through the Bradley challenge grant.

Closed Session

Discovery World
MPM has agreed to purchase the old Discover World building under terms that are
reduced from the original agreement. The current agreement provides for a total
purchase price of $3.0 million with payment terms per attached Schedule C. Funding of
the purchase will be through restricted donations directed for that purpose. The $500,000
payment due at closing has been secured by donations from the Bradley Foundation and
M&I Bank and will be made available upon approval of this agreement by the Milwaukee
County Board.
The aggregate result of the above actions will ensure the financial viability of the
Milwaukee Public Museum for the long-term, allowing this great museum to continue its
mission in support of the region and the quality of life that drives our community.
The Recovery Committee requests approval by Milwaukee County to support the
measures contained in this plan.
Sincerely,

We are pleased to report the parties have verbally agreed on a package of actions to be
taken, each conditional upon the others, to provide financial support for the museum.
Each party will provide written confirmation of approvals by their respective
organizations. The following describes the terms under which each of the stakeholders
would perform:
Donor Community
The donor community has publicly announced a lead gift of $5 million through the
leadership of the Bradley Foundation and an anonymous donor. This gift is conditional
upon MPM raising a matching $5 million in donations as well as conditional upon actions
by the other stakeholders. The initial $5 million will be paid over a 3-year period with
the first $2 million available by December 2007, subject to conditions as specified in the
grant letter. The donated funds would be used to:
1. Pay down and eliminate the Term and Working Capital Line of Credit (Revolver)
Loans which were put in place through Chase and M&I banks and guaranteed by
Milwaukee County in June 2005. The County’s guarantee would be eliminated as
that debt is extinguished.
2. Reestablish Endowment funds that were borrowed and used for operations in
2002 - 2005.
Banks
The banks agree to restructure the remaining $16.7 million in long-term debt to be
amortized over a 10-year period at reduced rates. The restructuring, combined with the
debt elimination provided by the donors, would lower the MPM’s annual debt service
cost from its current level of over $1.2 million annually to $450,000 annually for a period
of years 1 – 5 and $825,000 annually for years 6 - 10. (See attached Schedule A). This
new agreement would go into effect July 1, 2007. In addition, as MPM raises nonEndowment related funds, such as for programs, facilities, and exhibits, the investment
earnings from those raised funds will be used, in part, for further debt reduction.

Milwaukee County
Milwaukee County indicates they could provide support in certain key areas, which
would involve amending the current Lease and Management Agreement (“LMA”)
between the County and MPM, which is allowed for under Section 8.3:
1. Annual Operating Support - Guarantee annual appropriations to MPM at the 2006
level of funding for a period of 10 years beginning in 2008. This equates to
$3,502,376 per year. (Section 5.2)
2. Capital Improvement Commitment – Provide a minimum of $4.0 million over a
period of 5 years from 2008 to 2012 to address capital improvement projects
mutually agreed to by MPM and the County which are deemed eligible by the
LMA. (Section 5.9)
3. Amend termination provisions to reflect the 10-year agreement (amend the first
provision of the 5th amendment to the LMA)
4. Provide an exclusion clause for the Discovery World Real Estate and Personal
Property (Sections 4.1 and 4.2)
5. Transfer Discovery World ground lease provisions to MPM and have the term
consistent with the existing MPM ground lease.
6. During 2007, the County agrees to accelerate the July 1st payment to May 29th and
the October 1st payment to August 31st to aid MPM’s short-term cash flow issues.
The parties anticipate the Milwaukee County Board to vote on this agreement in the June
2007 cycle.
MPM, Inc.
Following the disclosure of the Museum’s financial crisis, MPM initiated improvements
in its financial controls and governance to eliminate the possibility of those circumstances
reoccurring. In addition, to size the operation to the income volume, MPM has reduced
operating expenses from $23.0 million in fiscal 2005 to $14.5 million in 2006 to a
projected $12.5 million in 2007. Staff levels have been reduced by 42% and additional
consolidating actions have further reduced operating expenses. In order to address shortterm cash needs in 2007, MPM will take further cost reduction actions and generate
additional donor support. More resources will be directed toward marketing efforts to
drive increases in attendance.
The MPM board and management will complete a Capital Campaign feasibility study,
establish leadership for the campaign, and launch the campaign. The goals of the
campaign will be to:
1. Provide matching funds for the $5 million challenge grant
2. Improve MPM permanent exhibits and educational programs
3. Provide funding of world class exhibits to bring to the community
4. Reestablish scientific resources and expertise in curatorial and research areas
5. Add new exhibits and programs
6. Fund additional debt reduction
7. Grow the museum’s endowment funds to support mission-related activities
The campaign assumes raising a minimum of $25 million in addition to the $10 million
raised through the Bradley challenge grant.

Discovery World
MPM has agreed to purchase the old Discover World building under terms that are
reduced from the original agreement. The current agreement provides for a total
purchase price of $3.0 million with payment terms per attached Schedule C. Funding of
the purchase will be through restricted donations directed for that purpose. The $500,000
payment due at closing has been secured by donations from the Bradley Foundation and
M&I Bank and will be made available upon approval of this agreement by the Milwaukee
County Board.
The aggregate result of the above actions will ensure the financial viability of the
Milwaukee Public Museum for the long-term, allowing this great museum to continue its
mission in support of the region and the quality of life that drives our community.
The Recovery Committee requests approval by Milwaukee County to support the
measures contained in this plan.

Re: Vanessa and Davida...
Sunday, May 20, 2007 7:27:21 PM

During the 2008 budget we are reconciling the HR system with the budget
system. I belive the budget instructions say the budget system overrides the
HR system. In any event, I believe it does and anyplace I have worked the
budget system is the controlling system since positions are authorized or
eliminated via the budget process or fund transfers. When we provided
information to the Board on Econ development we told then there were two FAMA
positions -- one unfunded and one funded but vacant. Again, in the 2008 budget
departments will either add or delete positions to the budget system to ensure
a tie out between these two systems. If the budget system shows two, I
maintain there are two.

Subject: Re: Vanessa and Davida...

That's great about Vanessa...I'm working through the hopefully final issues
with getting Davida here. I had Kat prepare the Certification Request form for
Rob to sign for us to put her in the unfunded position in ED per Rob's email of
this week. However, I also had Kat pull me the vacant position report to make
sure there were two vacancies listed since we are about to abolish one and
create an accountant. DHR's list of vacant positions only lists one. I called
James Eggers to verify that if BRASS shows two (one unfunded per the adopted
budget narrative and one funded) then there should be two. He sent me an email
asking me to call him but I was in Madison at graduation all day Friday and
didn't get to him. I will call him on Monday. I just wanted to let you guys
know this was going on. I didn't want to fill the ED position with Davida and
then find out DHR is contending that there was only one and we go and abolish
it to create the accountant.   If I am wrong in pushing the policy that Brass
overrides DHR's list please let me know before I get into it with
Eggers......thanks, Molly

Vanessa has been hired! While she drove a hard bargain right up to end, I
agreed to nothing more than the salary we agreed to. I told her if she is as
tough with her department budgets as she was with me, she will be great. She
is very excited and told her everyone here is looking forward to having her
back. Molly, please follow up with her early next week on details of start

Thanks to all you for helping to make this happen. I do believe we will be

It seems to me we should be able to split 1.0 FTE into a .60 FTE and .40 FTE.
If we had a position control system, each FTE would have a unitque position id

Subject: Cerdian Position Control

Please pardon this interruption during the budget season.
The ceridian system does not permit 'sharing' of a position. Let me give an
example. The budget has allocated a single 40 position for gate security at the

CArcher_Email3012856

HOC. The HOC decides to job share gate security between two people. In Genesys,
two people would point to the same position. In Ceridian, you must have two
positions, one for each incumbent.

Some time ago we discuss this issue, now we are starting to 'live' with this in
parallel. My instructions to departments is DAS controls the budgeting of
positions, DHR will control the creation of the positions. In this case, the
position is approved at 40 hours, but the HOC will ask DHR to create two
positions which aggregate to 40 hours. This allows them to fill two positions.

I want to make sure we have this tentative agreement as we begin to formalize
the process for DHR, Field Payrol clerks, HR Coordinators and DAS.

Milwaukee Public Museum Recovery Plan

Closed Session

Your jointly appointed Museum Recovery Committee has been meeting regularly since
February. The simple goal of the committee was to develop and endorse a plan that
would create a foundation, which would secure the Museum’s long-term fiscal viability.
The stakeholders on the committee included Milwaukee County, lenders - Chase and
M&I banks, the donor community, Discovery World, and the board and management of
MPM.
We are pleased to report the parties have verbally agreed on a package of actions to be
taken, each conditional upon the others, to provide financial support for the museum.
Each party will provide written confirmation of approvals by their respective
organizations. The following describes the terms under which each of the stakeholders

Milwaukee Public Museum Recovery Plan

Closed Session

Your jointly appointed Museum Recovery Committee has been meeting regularly since
February. The simple goal of the committee was to develop and endorse a plan that
would create a foundation, which would secure the Museum’s long-term fiscal viability.
The stakeholders on the committee included Milwaukee County, lenders - Chase and
M&I banks, the donor community, Discovery World, and the board and management of
MPM.
We are pleased to report the parties have verbally agreed on a package of actions to be
taken, each conditional upon the others, to provide financial support for the museum.
Each party will provide written confirmation of approvals by their respective
organizations. The following describes the terms under which each of the stakeholders
would perform:
Donor Community
The donor community has publicly announced a lead gift of $5 million through the
leadership of the Bradley Foundation and an anonymous donor. This gift is conditional
upon MPM raising a matching $5 million in donations as well as conditional upon actions
by the other stakeholders. The initial $5 million will be paid over a 3-year period with
the first $2 million available by December 2007, subject to conditions as specified in the
grant letter. The donated funds would be used to:
1. Pay down and eliminate the Term and Working Capital Line of Credit (Revolver)
Loans which were put in place through Chase and M&I banks and guaranteed by
Milwaukee County in June 2005. The County’s guarantee would be eliminated as
that debt is extinguished.
2. Reestablish Endowment funds that were borrowed and used for operations in
2002 - 2005.
Banks
The banks agree to restructure the remaining $16.7 million in long-term debt to be
amortized over a 10-year period at reduced rates. The restructuring, combined with the
debt elimination provided by the donors, would lower the MPM’s annual debt service
cost from its current level of over $1.2 million annually to $450,000 annually for a period
of years 1 – 5 and $825,000 annually for years 6 - 10. (See attached Schedule A). This
new agreement would go into effect July 1, 2007. In addition, as MPM raises nonEndowment related funds, such as for programs, facilities, and exhibits, the investment
earnings from those raised funds will be used, in part, for further debt reduction.

Closed Session

Milwaukee County
Milwaukee County indicates they could provide support in certain key areas, which
would involve amending the current Lease and Management Agreement (“LMA”)
between the County and MPM, which is allowed for under Section 8.3:
1. Annual Operating Support - Guarantee annual appropriations to MPM at the 2006
level of funding for a period of 10 years beginning in 2008. This equates to
$3,502,376 per year. (Section 5.2)
2. Capital Improvement Commitment – Provide a minimum of $4.0 million over a
period of 5 years from 2008 to 2012 to address capital improvement projects
mutually agreed to by MPM and the County which are deemed eligible by the
LMA. (Section 5.9)
3. Amend termination provisions to reflect the 10-year agreement (amend the first
provision of the 5th amendment to the LMA)
4. Provide an exclusion clause for the Discovery World Real Estate and Personal
Property (Sections 4.1 and 4.2)
5. Transfer Discovery World ground lease provisions to MPM and have the term
consistent with the existing MPM ground lease.
6. During 2007, the County agrees to accelerate the July 1st payment to May 29th and
the October 1st payment to August 31st to aid MPM’s short-term cash flow issues.
The parties anticipate the Milwaukee County Board to vote on this agreement in the June
2007 cycle.
MPM, Inc.
Following the disclosure of the Museum’s financial crisis, MPM initiated improvements
in its financial controls and governance to eliminate the possibility of those circumstances
reoccurring. In addition, to size the operation to the income volume, MPM has reduced
operating expenses from $23.0 million in fiscal 2005 to $14.5 million in 2006 to a
projected $12.5 million in 2007. Staff levels have been reduced by 42% and additional
consolidating actions have further reduced operating expenses. In order to address shortterm cash needs in 2007, MPM will take further cost reduction actions and generate
additional donor support. More resources will be directed toward marketing efforts to
drive increases in attendance.
The MPM board and management will complete a Capital Campaign feasibility study,
establish leadership for the campaign, and launch the campaign. The goals of the
campaign will be to:
1. Provide matching funds for the $5 million challenge grant
2. Improve MPM permanent exhibits and educational programs
3. Provide funding of world class exhibits to bring to the community
4. Reestablish scientific resources and expertise in curatorial and research areas
5. Add new exhibits and programs
6. Fund additional debt reduction
7. Grow the museum’s endowment funds to support mission-related activities
The campaign assumes raising a minimum of $25 million in addition to the $10 million
raised through the Bradley challenge grant.

Discovery World
MPM has agreed to purchase the old Discover World building under terms that are
reduced from the original agreement. The current agreement provides for a total
purchase price of $3.0 million with payment terms per attached Schedule C. Funding of
the purchase will be through restricted donations directed for that purpose. The $500,000
payment due at closing has been secured by donations from the Bradley Foundation and
M&I Bank and will be made available upon approval of this agreement by the Milwaukee
County Board.
The aggregate result of the above actions will ensure the financial viability of the
Milwaukee Public Museum for the long-term, allowing this great museum to continue its
mission in support of the region and the quality of life that drives our community.
The Recovery Committee requests approval by Milwaukee County to support the
measures contained in this plan.

Cindy,
I just spoke with Herb Mallinger at MTS. He is working to pull together the
necessary information for a response to your memo concerning the Transit
deficit.
His schedule this week puts him and the MTS director in Madison Tuesday
afternoon and all day Wednesday. Therefore, he asks to have until Thursday to
provide you his response.
Please advise. Thanks.

Analysts assignments
Wednesday, May 23, 2007 1:15:31 PM

With the new analysts starting I would like to reach resolution on assignments
before they begin. I have spent alot of time thinking about this and looking
at various alternatives. My goal is twofold -- one, I want to avoid
fragmenting departments between multiple analysts and two, I want there to be a
clearer distinction between operating and capital with Molly supervising all
operating issues and Pam supervising all capital issues.
The departments that we seem to fragment the most are DAS and DTPW. Again, I
would like the operating budgets for these departments to be under the
direction of Molly and I would like one analyst responsible for each of these
department's operating budgets. Pam would of course maintain all capital
responsibilities. I would also like, if possible, there to be one analysts
assigned to DAS.
On the face of it, I it appears that the Capital team has two analysts split
between operating and Capital. James does facilities operating and fringe
benefits and capital assignments. Chad is also split between Capital and
operating. It seems to me, we could move Chad back to operating and remove
from James's assignment his operating responsibilities leaving James with 100%
capital.
I understand this model is a departure from the recent practice of mixing
operating budgets into the Capital team. I would like to, if at all possible,
move back to having an operating team and a capital team with issues that will
obviously need to be coordinated.
I would like the two of you to sit down and bring me your ideas on how to
accomplish this as well as any pros and cons you see with the above approach.
So as not to create any undue stress among the anlaysts, I would like these
discussions limited to us for now until we get a cleared vision of what we are
thinking.
Thanks.

I want to handle this but I want you to be aware of it in case you hear from
Pam about it. Your input of course is always welcome. Molly is very
supportive of this approach. Let me know if you have concerns, but if Pam
comes to you, please send her back to me. Thanks.

        Analysts assignments





With the new analysts starting I would like to reach resolution on assignments
before they begin. I have spent alot of time thinking about this and looking
at various alternatives. My goal is twofold -- one, I want to avoid
fragmenting departments between multiple analysts and two, I want there to be a
clearer distinction between operating and capital with Molly supervising all
operating issues and Pam supervising all capital issues.
The departments that we seem to fragment the most are DAS and DTPW. Again, I
would like the operating budgets for these departments to be under the
direction of Molly and I would like one analyst responsible for each of these
department's operating budgets. Pam would of course maintain all capital
responsibilities. I would also like, if possible, there to be one analysts
assigned to DAS.
On the face of it, I it appears that the Capital team has two analysts split
between operating and Capital. James does facilities operating and fringe
benefits and capital assignments. Chad is also split between Capital and
operating. It seems to me, we could move Chad back to operating and remove

Re: 2008 Revised Targets

Yes we need to get this done. Please come prepared with memos for me to send
to the impacted departements explaining the adjustment to their levy target and
the reasoning behind it.   We also need to adjust the IMSD target and send Rob
a letter.
I would also at some point soon want to talk about the "cost allocation" Manske gave this to me and I have not had time to look at it but I fear I heard
him say it was increasing by over a $1 million and this was in addtion to the
crosscharges for risk and IMSD and facilites. The bottom line on cross charges
is I want to be sure department cost increases are being automatically passed
of as increased charges (per our budget instructions). I don't know how the
cost allocation system fits into this so someone needs to walk me through that.

In additon to the below 2008 issues, I recall that the CMO asked us something
about establishing seperate levy targets and narratives -- we need to resolve
this when we meet as well. Dan probably has the detail. In essence, if there
is anything at all we need to communicate to department's related to
development of the 2008 budget, lets meet and get it done so we are not holding
them up.

Fw: Comments
Thursday, May 24, 2007 10:02:32 AM

I concur with Bill's comments below.
When we tennatively agreed to electronically transfer the Milwaukee County
payment to MPM, the agreement was that it had to go to an MPM account that was
fully under the control of MPM. The terms in bank agreement are contrary to
the agreement that Bernatz and I had. As a result, the next payment will be in
the form of a paper check until the Board resolution passes clearing stating
what Milwaukee County will do with respect to this issue. In addition, once
the Board resolution passes, I will need documentation that the electronic
transfer is going to a MPM account under the direct control of MPM. I remain
concerned that the language in the Bank terms remains as stated, but Mr. Domina
informs me the Banks cannot dictate what Milwaukee County does even though the
language attempts to "direct" Milwaukee County. Again, the County's financial
relationship with with MPM, not financial institutions.
I too am very concerned about the language in the Bank terms that states MPM
will cover the banks costs including attorney fees related to the negotiation
and completion of this deal. There is no dollar cap on this. In addition,
this was not made known to the Recovery Committee or the Financial Oversight
Committee nor do I believe this cost was included in the budget projections
presented to the Oversight Committee yesterday when they voted to proceed with
the Body Works exhibit. I cannot guarantee that this will not become an issue
when the deal goes before the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors. As we
know from yesterday's discussion, MPM will still have a budget shortfall of
about $150,000 this year even with the advances from the County. It was also
clear the Oversight Committee has no intentions of advancing anymore funds from
the guaranteed loan balance. I would like to know what the estimate of this
cost is and how that will change your budget projections as we discussed
yesterday. I also feel this is a significant enough issue that it should have
been bought before the Recovery Committee and the Oversight Committee.

Michael:
I promised to memorialize my comments in this email for your consideration:
1. Discovery World. I continue to raise a question about how to best
memorialize the Discovery World transaction so as to meet the original
expectation of the County that it would eventually own the improvements built
on its land. My goal is to roll it into the Lease and Management Agreement,
which still has 35 years to run.   In an effort to meet the needs of MPM, I
will draft the amendment in a way to give you control over the use of the
Discovery World Building during the term of the lease. Additionally, I have
asked that the term language that gives Chase a perfected first lien on all
personal or real property of the MPM but also indicates that the assets to be
acquired by MPM is to remain unemcumbered means that neither Chase (nor M&I)
will acquire any lien against the Discovery World asset. This latter language
was referenced by Steve Abbey during our discussion, so clarity should not be a
big deal. Dana Lach is also forwarding to me the general terms of the
Discovery World acquisition.
2. Direct Deposit. Because of issues raised during the bankruptcy discussion
(which I believe are not factually supported) regarding the relationship
between MPM and Milwaukee County relative to debt obligations, Milwaukee County
will not electronically transfer funds to an account which is not controlled by
MPM. The resolution that the Board will pass will contain language indicating
that Milwaukee County will use electonic transfer to an MPM account. The
current term on the Term Sheet is not acceptable to Milwaukee County.
3. 5-year Strategic Financial Plan.   As part of the due diligence of
Milwaukee County, you have agreed to allow our representatives review the
5-year financial plan that you have developed on behalf of MPM. Our
representatives will schedule a meeting with you at the museum to review this
document.
4. Payment of Fees and Costs Related to Refinance. I have asked both you and
Chase to better define and estimate the costs on the terms sheet related to the
provision that charges MPM (and indirectly Milwaukee County) for cost and fees
(including and not limited to attorney fees) so that there is some better
understanding of this exposure.
I have discussed these points with Steve Abbey of Chase.

MPM advance payment
Thursday, May 24, 2007 10:06:21 AM

In light of the email I just sent indicating the next payment to MPM would not
be electronic, I need to know if you intend let the Board Chair and Finance
Chair know that we think we should advance the next payment to MPM or if you
want me to do it. I am not in next week and I do not know how many days in
advance we need to notify the Treasurer that we want a check cut. The
electronic transfer required 48 hour notice. I assume a paper check will
require longer.
Please let me know how you wish to proceed with the Board leadership.
Thanks.

SUBJECT:

Potential 2007 Budget Deficit

DATE:

May 24, 2007

As requested in your memorandum dated May 18, 2007, MTS, Inc. is providing updated
information regarding the MCTS 2007 fiscal status and actions taken to mitigate the impact of
the potential deficit. This memorandum also responds to specific questions regarding the fiscal
impact of negotiations with ATU Local 998, health care cost changes and other items.
Updated Passenger Revenue Projections
In the memorandum dated May 3, 2007, it was stated that based on first quarter statistics, transit
system fixed route revenue was projected to be $2,006,688 under budget for 2007, primarily due
to a projected deficit of $1,865,451 (-5.16%) in passenger revenue. April passenger revenue was
4.95% under budget. Initial data for the first two weeks in May show that revenue may be
slightly higher than April, but still significantly below budget. Based on the latest information, it
is projected that passenger revenue will still be approximately $1,800,000 under budget for the
year, although if the recent high gasoline prices continue that trend may be mitigated slightly.
Total revenue is projected at $1,956,000 below budget based on four months.
During the 2007 budget process, discussions focused on the impacts of reducing the discount on
the adult weekly pass and tickets. While losing ridership is a consequence of raising fares,
Milwaukee County budget staff argued that a fare increase for the weekly pass would not result
in a significant loss of ridership because buyers of the weekly pass were the bus system’s core
riders. Based on this argument, the 2007 budget estimated that the increase in the price of the
weekly pass would result in an estimated 3.57% reduction in pass sales. Through the end of
April, the number of passes sold is down 12% when compared to last year.
As mentioned in the May 3rd report, passenger revenue has also been negatively impacted by the
methodology used by Milwaukee Public Schools (MPS) to distribute fare forms to eligible
students. A student pass is provided to MPS at a discounted rate. This discount has been
lessened in recent budgets and, as a result, MPS began distributing individual adult tickets to
their eligible students instead of issuing a weekly school pass. The result is that the overall usage
of school passes is down considerably while adult ticket usage is up, but not in the same
proportion as the reduction in school passes. MTS has lost both revenue and ridership due to this
change at MPS. That will not be recovered.

Updated Paratransit Ridership Statistics
Paratransit service is a mandated service that is provided through Transit Plus. Through the first
four months of 2007, the number of trips taken by paratransit van continues to be significantly
over budget. Van ridership for the first four months of 2007 is 8.74% higher than budgeted.
Higher than anticipated fuel costs are also a factor in the increased paratransit costs.
These increases are being mitigated by slightly higher than expected van productivity numbers
and higher T19 billings. We have also eliminated one clerical position in the paratransit program
staff. The May 3rd deficit projection was modified slightly to reflect these factors. Based on the
first four months, it is anticipated that the paratransit program will have a deficit of $995,600 for
2007.
Lump-sum Reduction
The 2007 adopted budget contained a $1,174,025 unspecified lump sum reduction in funding for
transit. MTS, Inc. has made a number of changes to offset this decrease in local funding. In
January of 2007, MTS revised its method of distributing parts stock to the operating garages and
the major maintenance facility. The ordering of stock and maintenance of inventory was
incorporated into the duties of several different Maintenance Department positions. As a result
of this reorganization, five represented positions and one supervisory position were eliminated
from the Materials Management Department for an annual savings of approximately $445,000.
At the same time, the fuel budget was reduced from $2.35/gal. to $2.20/gal., for a savings of
approximately $600,000. The remaining $129,000 was made up through adjustments in various
areas throughout the organization. These changes are accounted for in the base budget amount
used for the May 3rd projection.
OPEB Obligation
We anticipate that the prognosis is still very good for achieving the changes in medical costs that
would be required to achieve the budgeted 2007 OPEB amount. At the current time, we are
pursuing several avenues in dealing with the Local 998 contract impasse which would achieve
sufficient changes to the healthcare coverage in 2007 to meet the OPEB amount. We are
discussing the possibility of entering into a voluntary limited expedited arbitration which would
resolve the outstanding issues within the next few months. If we are unable to reach agreement
on this course of action, it is likely that we will have to implement our final offer. These
expenses and assumptions were included in our May 3rd projections.

May 24, 2007
Strike Contingency Plans
MTS continues to make diligent effort in the collective bargaining process with ATU Local 998
to avoid any disruption in fixed route public transit service. In the event that the Union
membership should authorize a strike action, MTS has formulated a strike contingency plan to
maintain facilities and rolling stock security and coordinate all activities during a strike. Key
elements of that plan are:
•
•
•
•
•

Management strike team established.
Pre-strike, during strike and post-strike activities established in all key functional areas
including security and access to buildings and property.
Key stakeholders identified for advance notice of shutdown in bus service if strike action
becomes imminent.
MTS will seek the cooperation of ATU Local 998 for the orderly shutdown of bus
services.
Paratransit services for the disabled community will continue to operate.

With respect to the fiscal impact of a strike, projected net reduction in tax levy would be
appropriately $700,000 per month.
Current and Future Actions
As indicated in the May 3rd memorandum, MTS will continue to hold the line on costs in all
areas of operations in an effort to mitigate the impact of the revenue deficit. The May 3rd
memorandum estimated that expenditure reductions of approximately $1,035,000 would be made
through the end of the year. This included approximately $400,000 in additional fuel cost
reductions. It also included the elimination of three NR positions and one Local 35 position;
lower salaries; holding open positions; reduced/eliminated travel; and a variety of other line item
reductions. In addition to the items indicated above, we have also reduced the staffed hours in
the Information Center, effective June 1st. This will save an additional $130,000 through the end
of the year. Total expense reduction is projected to be $1,168,500 for the fixed route system.
Despite these reductions, the total deficit is still projected to be $1,783,000, based on the first
four months:

($1,956,000)

$1,783,000

CArcher_Email3012949

Cynthia Archer, Fiscal and Budget Administrator

May 24, 2007
The reason for the projected deficit is the lower than anticipated revenue on the fixed route
system and the increase in van trips provided by the Transit Plus program. We have taken every
action possible in an attempt to minimize the impact of these factors. At this time, we are down
to minimal staffing required to run the facilities and manage service. Because of the use of
Federal funding, reductions in the Maintenance side of the operation only save $.20 on the dollar
in local funding and reductions on the operations side would require service reductions. A list of
potential service reductions could be provided by early next week, if desired. In order to
implement these reductions by September, we would need to have Milwaukee County Board
approval before the end of June.
It would also be possible to increase the cash fare to $2.00 and the associated Half-Fare to $1.00.
It is anticipated that this would generate approximately $420,000 if implemented August 1st.
Other potential mitigating actions include increasing the paratransit fare from $3.25 to $3.50
($100,000 additional revenue for 2007 with a August 1st implementation), or reducing the
parartransit service area to within 3/4 of a mile of the fixed route service ($350,000 savings for
2007 with a September 1st implementation). Any of these actions would require immediate
Board approval for timely implementation.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any additional questions.

Pension Funding Agenda 6.1.07.doc

We talked to Ceschin this morning about what they wanted on POBs and they
wanted us to run POBs based on 20 years vs the proposed 30 years which defeats
the purpose of POBs and would be a ton of work to do involving Bond counsel,
financial mrg., etc. I asked what the goal was and he said Mayo just wants to
see it. We concluded that Pam would attend the meeting and explain. In any
event, it seems like a meaningless exercise given the amount of work required
and I told him there was no way it could be done prior to the meeting. This
seems to be one of those things that they are just curious without giving any
real thought to what they are after. Pam will attend.

        June Finance and Audit Reports





Hi Rich. I am writing to ask whether we could have a little additional time to
prepare three critical reports for this month's Finance and Audit Committee
meeting.
One of those is the report on corrective actions for the Economic and Community
Development Division. We have much of the report written, but we would like to
present the most current and accurate picture possible to the Committee of
ECD's 2007 budget situation, and this has required the Hoppe and Orendorff
accountant to go all the way back to 1999 to sort things out. The deadline for
reports is May 29 -- we can't make that date, but should have something by the
end of next week or by Monday the 4th. Because agenda setting is Tuesday the
5th, I was hoping that would be OK. The meeting date is June 14.
The second is a potential report on countywide corrective actions. Cindy and
Scott Manske have been working diligently with our analysts and departments to
get the most up-to-date information so that we can make an informed decision.
Obviously, we do not want to pull the trigger on corrective actions unless they
are warranted. Conversely, failure to act in the June cycle if corrective
actions are deemed necessary would add to the burden of a future corrective

CArcher_Email3012954

action plan. Because we do not yet have a firm estimate on ECD, and because we
are still seeking up-to-date information from DHHS, BHD, Transit and others, we
would like to respectfully request to have until early the week of June 4 to
submit this report as well. If corrective actions are not warranted, then this
will be an informational report regarding the 2007 fiscal status.
The final report is notification of the final surplus for 2006. We are just
about there, but Scott could use until early next week to wrap this up.
Because the size of the surplus is moving in the right direction, it is
conceivable that we may request authorization to place some in the Debt Service
Reserve, which may further influence our thinking on corrective actions for
2007. Because we need to consider all of these pieces together, we would like
to have until early the week of the 4th to submit this report as well.
Please let me know at your earliest convenience if this is acceptable to you.
Thanks!
-- Rob

        June Finance and Audit Reports





Hi Rich. I am writing to ask whether we could have a little additional time to
prepare three critical reports for this month's Finance and Audit Committee
meeting.
One of those is the report on corrective actions for the Economic and Community
Development Division. We have much of the report written, but we would like to
present the most current and accurate picture possible to the Committee of
ECD's 2007 budget situation, and this has required the Hoppe and Orendorff
accountant to go all the way back to 1999 to sort things out. The deadline for
reports is May 29 -- we can't make that date, but should have something by the
end of next week or by Monday the 4th. Because agenda setting is Tuesday the
5th, I was hoping that would be OK. The meeting date is June 14.
The second is a potential report on countywide corrective actions. Cindy and
Scott Manske have been working diligently with our analysts and departments to
get the most up-to-date information so that we can make an informed decision.
Obviously, we do not want to pull the trigger on corrective actions unless they
are warranted. Conversely, failure to act in the June cycle if corrective
actions are deemed necessary would add to the burden of a future corrective

CArcher_Email3012956

action plan. Because we do not yet have a firm estimate on ECD, and because we
are still seeking up-to-date information from DHHS, BHD, Transit and others, we
would like to respectfully request to have until early the week of June 4 to
submit this report as well. If corrective actions are not warranted, then this
will be an informational report regarding the 2007 fiscal status.
The final report is notification of the final surplus for 2006. We are just
about there, but Scott could use until early next week to wrap this up.
Because the size of the surplus is moving in the right direction, it is
conceivable that we may request authorization to place some in the Debt Service
Reserve, which may further influence our thinking on corrective actions for
2007. Because we need to consider all of these pieces together, we would like
to have until early the week of the 4th to submit this report as well.
Please let me know at your earliest convenience if this is acceptable to you.
Thanks!
-- Rob

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
INTEROFFICE COMMUNICATION

Supervisor Richard Nyklewicz, Chairman, Finance and Audit Committee

FROM:

Cynthia Archer, Fiscal and Budget Administrator

SUBJECT:

Sales Tax Revenue – Potential Operating Impact
Background
The Department of Administrative Services (DAS) and Public Financial Management (PFM), the
County’s financial advisor, at the request of the Finance and Audit Committee, provided a review of
the County’s debt management policies and capital financing goals. The purpose of the review was
to determine if there were any changes that would provide the County with flexibility regarding its
capital program.
DAS presented the report to the Finance and Audit Committee on March 29, 2007 and was directed
to update the information regarding a potential budget shortfall in sales tax revenue.
Sales and Use Tax Ordinance Change
The County’s debt management policy states that net debt service costs will be fully offset with sales
and use tax revenue. This is compliant with Section 22.04 of the Milwaukee County General
Ordinances (Sales Tax Ordinance) that restricts the use of sales and use tax revenue to pay general
obligation debt service costs, cash-finance capital improvement projects or prepay outstanding
bonds.
In June 2003, the County modified the Sales Tax Ordinance to allow the use of sales tax revenue to
offset operating expenses. Specifically, Section 22.04 was modified to allow for the use of excess
sales taxes to “prefund employee benefit costs or fund unanticipated or extraordinary annual
increases in such costs or supplement the appropriation for contingencies.” The 2003 modifications
are scheduled to sunset January 1, 2008.
Fiscal and Budgetary Impact Update
The table below summarizes net sales tax collections and debt service projections through 2011. The
projected sales tax revenue has been adjusted to reflect the required State repayment of
approximately $1.8 million over the years 2008-2010.

The 2007 budget allocated excess sales tax revenues of approximately $21.6 million for operating
purposes.
For 2008, sales tax collections net of the amount allocated to Capital are estimated to total
approximately $63 million. From that amount, approximately $58 million will be required for 2008
debt service costs leaving a balance of excess sales tax revenue of $5.1 million.
As noted above, in 2008 general obligation debt service is projected to increase by almost $13.7
million therefore reducing significantly the amount of excess sales tax revenue available for other
purposes. This increase in debt service is due to the debt restructuring initiative undertaken in 2003
which resulted in deferment of debt service payments through 2007. As the County must now
budget for the debt service that had been deferred, policymakers flexibility in utilizing excess sales
tax revenues will be reduced in 2008 since the amount of excess sales tax revenues will decrease
from approximately $21.5 million in 2007 to approximately $5.1 million in 2008.
The 2008 budget preliminary DAS projections presented to the bond rating agencies in May
indicated a potential 2008 budget gap of approximately $26.6 million - $39.8 million. In the event
policymakers allow the use of excess sales taxes for operating purposes to sunset at the end of 2007,
the projected budget gap for 2008 would increase accordingly by approximately $5.1 million.
In light of the ongoing operating cost-to-continue pressures faced by the County and the longstanding
strength of Milwaukee County’s debt position, policymakers may wish to consider maintaining their
flexibility in the use to excess sales tax revenue as provided for in the 2003 modifications to Section
22.05, Milwaukee County General Ordinances.

sales tax paper for Rob"s review.doc

Rob, here is my version of the sales tax paper. I suspect you may have more to
add given your long history with this issue. Feel free. You have my signature
stamp on your chair.
Pam indicates my explanation of why DS is going up in 2008 is wrong. I do not
have time to delve into it with her so I have asked her to edit it to make it
right. She will do so and send it to you before she leaves today. She also
indicates she does not want her name on the paper since it is not what she
wrote. I could care less and leave it up to you.
I am frustrated because we felt pressured into giving her Tuesday off because
I would not let her take today off (it was not a scheduled day off and her work
was not done). On top of that she had to leave this afternoon to go to Time
Warner to take care of personal business while I was trying to finish her
paper. I am worried about you being here on Tuesday with no one except Kat.
There should be at least one budget manager here and in retrospect we should
not have allowed Tuesday off. I have to learn to stand up to her.

        Re: MTS Corrective Actio Memo





I'm concerned that this is a little too strong and implies to the Supervisors
who are copied that we definitely plan to implement the service cuts and/or
fare increases cited by MTS. I would suggest toning it down a little bit as
follows:
While it appears that you have taken steps to minimize the magnitude of a
potential 2007 deficit, I am quite concerned about the remaining $1.7 million
deficit reported and the lack of options available to deal with it. Your
response indicated service reductions as well as fare increases are the
remaining options to mitigate the 2007 deficit. Please evaluate and provide
DAS a list of recommended potential service cuts and/or fare increases that you
would recommend implementing to eliminate the remaining deficit should DAS and
policymakers deem it necessary to undertake that course of action.action plan
identifying the most effective approach to implementing either or both of these
measures.
In identifying proposed potential service reductions, include the following
items: the type of service proposed for reduction, the geographic area impacted
by the reduction, an impact level in terms of service frequency, and the cost
savings associated with each service option. Also, please provide a priority
ranking of service reductions identified and the basis by which these
priorities were established.
Concerning proposed potential measures to increase daily fares, please clarify
the efficacy of this given the MTS concern that fare increases, as approved in
the adopted 2007 budget, are a contributor to decreased revenue year to date.

given that it is only one week before the Board meets and the action is really
unnecessary since she is on a TAHC.

I will be off next week. As I told Mr. Cady, if there are things I need to
review please send to my work email and call me and let me know I need to check
my work email. My cell # is (414) 881-4482. I will be in Madison most of the
time and can be reached at (608) 244-5080. I will not have access to email on
Thursday and Friday since I will be in Chicago. I will take my MPM file home
with me.
My understanding from talking to Steve is that this will go to the Parks
Committee on June 12 and Finance on June 14. The Chair would like a staff
report prior to referring it. Julie is working on the staff report and I would
be happy to review it via email if needed before I return on June 4.
Thanks to my MPM partners in crime!

Pam, if you have not done it already, please don't forget that Rob asked for a
brief summary of the loan application process related to the housing loan. My
understanding is he just wants a couple paragraphs explaing the application
process and the timing. See him if you need further direction. Thanks.

I don't know if this clarifies or not, but what Karen had us doing was putting
her in under the emergency appointment process. I think she is now asking if
we still want to do this given that a civil service commission meeting has been
scheduled.
Are you carrying around your blackberry reading work emails? If so, pull the
battery out of it and try to relax a bit!!

Fw: Sales Tax Report
Saturday, May 26, 2007 8:17:51 AM
sales tax paper for Rob"s review.doc

Rob, the projected deficit range that Pam if referring to should be pulled
right out of the bond rating briefing document. If I recall, the official
statement had ranges in for no wage increase and our cost to conitnue had
ranges in for levy increase to the allowable vs no levy increase per Walker.
We talked to Walker about which range he wanted in the briefing document and I
think his conclusion was to include the worste case with no levy increase. In
any event, the bottom line is we should use exactly what the Board has already
seen which is the one in the rating agence document. Please double check and
make sure that what I have in this paper matches what was in the bond rating
briefing document.

I have the detail on what Pam is saying about the reasons behind the debt
service increase but I don't have it with me. If you need me to check these #
I could also call Kat and have her pull my spreadsheet and check what Pam has
put in. It still seems to me that if P and I are going up so much it is the
direct result of the refinancing but since I just got Pam's edits, I did not
have time to go over with her. Perhaps we could say the increase is primarily
due to the refinancing and take out all the other detail.

I was going to add something about using the excess for pension costs since it
is consistent with the county code allowable use. I did not speak to that
issue however since as we saw on late Friday, that issue is now unclear. Also,
OPEB seems to be a non-levy issue which leaves using the excess for salary or
fringe which does not seem to meet the intent of the code modifications. For
these reasons, I remained vauge on how we could suggest the best use of the
excess.

If you need more specific numbers on our c2c deficits (salary, pension, fringe,
etc), call me on Monday and I will call Kat and she can find those on my desk

I just changed a sentence or two. I tried to reconcile the 26.6-39.8 million
range from the rating agency presentation with the number in the OS. It
appears that the OS has a range of $26.6 to 49.3 million (75.9-26.6=49.3). It
could be that the number was updated after the OS was published. I just
thought I should inform you of the variance. I did not change the amount since

Cynthia Archer, Fiscal and Budget Administrator

SUBJECT:

Sales Tax Revenue – Potential Operating Impact
Background
The Department of Administrative Services (DAS) and Public Financial Management (PFM), the
County’s financial advisor, at the request of the Finance and Audit Committee, provided a review of
the County’s debt management policies and capital financing goals. The purpose of the review was
to determine if there were any changes that would provide the County with flexibility regarding its
capital program.
DAS presented the report to the Finance and Audit Committee on March 29, 2007 and was directed
to update the information regarding a potential budget shortfall in sales tax revenue.
Sales and Use Tax Ordinance Change
The County’s debt management policy states that net debt service costs will be fully offset with sales
and use tax revenue. This is compliant with Section 22.04 of the Milwaukee County General
Ordinances (Sales Tax Ordinance) that restricts the use of sales and use tax revenue to pay general
obligation debt service costs, cash-finance capital improvement projects or prepay outstanding
bonds.
In June 2003, the County modified the Sales Tax Ordinance to allow the use of sales tax revenue to
offset operating expenses. Specifically, Section 22.04 was modified to allow for the use of excess
sales taxes to “prefund employee benefit costs or fund unanticipated or extraordinary annual
increases in such costs or supplement the appropriation for contingencies.” The 2003 modifications
are scheduled to sunset January 1, 2008.
Fiscal and Budgetary Impact Update
The table below summarizes net sales tax collections and debt service projections through 2011. The
projected sales tax revenue has been adjusted to reflect the required State repayment of
approximately $1.8 million over the years 2008-2010.

The 2007 budget allocated excess sales tax revenues of approximately $21.6 million for operating purposes.
For 2008, sales tax collections net of the amount allocated to Capital are estimated to total approximately $63
million. From that amount, approximately $58 million will be required for 2008 debt service costs leaving a
balance of excess sales tax revenue of $5.1 million.
As noted above, in 2008 net general obligation debt service is projected to increase by almost $13.7 million
therefore reducing significantly the amount of excess sales tax revenue available for other purposes. ThisThe
increase in net debt service is primarily due to an increase in principal and interest of $8.1 million, a decrease in
revenues allocated to pay debt service of $4.6 million, and a decrease in the offset from proprietary fund
departments of $1.0 million. is due to the debt restructuring initiative undertaken in 2003 which resulted in
deferment of debt service payments through 2007. As the County must now budget for the debt service that had
been deferred,

Formatted

policymakersPolicymaker’s flexibility in utilizing excess sales tax revenues will be reduced in 2008 since the
amount of excess sales tax revenues will decrease from approximately $21.56 million in 2007 to approximately
$5.1 million in 2008.
The 2008 budget preliminary DAS projections presented to the bond rating agencies in May indicated a potential
2008 budget gap of approximately $26.6 million - $39.8 million. In the event policymakers allow the use of
excess sales taxes for operating purposes to sunset at the end of 2007, the projected budget gap for 2008 would
increase accordingly by approximately $5.1 million.
In light of the ongoing operating cost-to-continue pressures faced by the County and the longstanding strength of
Milwaukee County’s debt position, policymakers may wish to consider maintaining their flexibility in the use to
excess sales tax revenue as provided for in the 2003 modifications to Section 22.05, Milwaukee County General
Ordinances.

Pam, if principle and interest is going up over $8 million, is this not due to
the refinancing that was done five years ago? Can we at least say that the
increase is primarily due to the refinancing? If it is not due to that (which
is what I have always understood), then why is P and I going up so much in 2008?

Kat, please have Pam check in with Rob on Tuesday from home to be sure he has
what he needs. Thanks.

I think we should meet on this immediately after Cindy gets back the week of
6/4. We need to know if this indeed does have to be budgeted in 2008 (I'm not
crazy about Gary Mick's attitude in this e-mail) and if so, this adds more than
$1 million to our 2008 hole, so that needs to enter into our overall thinking.

        NR 216 Permit





Attached is a copy of Milwaukee County's NR 216 Permit which was issued by the
WDNR in December of 2006. This was after over 2 years of negotiations between
the agency and the County that occurred concurrently with threatened lawsuits
by a local environmental activist group id, "Friends of Milwaukee's Rivers".
You will notice that there is a pretty specific timeline for accomplishing
specific tasks related to bring the County's stormwater discharges into
compliance with State (and hence Federal) regulations. Similar permits have
been issued to all local municipalities.
I'm sure you realize that Milwaukee County is unique among the 72 counties in
Wisconsin as there is no "unincorporated" land within our corporate borders.
Put simply, all land within the county is also within one of the 19
incorporated communities. For this reason one might ask, "why issue Milwaukee
County an NR 216 permit at all"? The answer lies in the fact that the County
owns so much land (some 19,000 acres) that the WDNR felt we presented a
"special case" which is spoken to in the regulations.
Other counties (Dane, Brown, etc.) that are largely urbanized will soon (if the
haven't already) received NR 216 Permits. However, this is because they still
contain unincorporated lands and thus exercise regulatory authority in these
areas concerning stormwater. Soon we will have company in the stewpot as
counties are exempted from implementing stormwater utilities as a means of
paying for work required under NR 216, a method in use by numerous
municipalities within the County (who send us bills for discharge from our many
holdings). A consolidated effort (perhaps in cooperation with the WCA) should
be made to rectify this for numerous reasons not germane to the present
discussion.
What will happen if we miss the deadlines in our NR 216 Permit? First, phone
calls from local WDNR program management staff. Second, letters explaining
what will happen absent reasonable compliance. Remember, at this point it's
not an enforcement action so some adjustment of due dates might be possible.
Third, absent some reasonable attempt to comply (in the eyes of the WDNR
staff) they will turn it over to the State Attorney General for legal action.
This will probably result in a stipulated agreement much as we are now under
for sanitary sewer problems. A considerable amount of time and $$$ will be
involved in getting to this point (ask your Corporation Counsel) with nothing
but paper to show for it, id. a reasonable delaying tactic but little else.
Then there is the very real possibility that the Friends of Milwaukee's Rivers
will get fired back up and take legal action against the County. But, this
time they would have the blessing of the WDNR because otherwise they could
enjoin the WDNR (and may anyway). Then any "slack" we negotiated previously
with the WDNR will be "out the window" because of our noncompliance.
If you would like to discuss this further I suggest we sit down w/ Corporation
Counsel and do so. - 35657.pdf

ECP Study Committee Meeting
May 24, 2007, 10:00 am
Meeting Summary
Attendance: Karen R. Jackson, Cindy Archer, Mike Bickerstaff, Rick Ceschin, James Eggers,
Mary Ann Grimes, Gregory McKinstry, Candace Richards, James Tate
Excused:
Jertha Ramos-Colon
Definitions:
The Committee discussed definitions of various issues including, Executive Salary Group,
Executive Compensation Plan, Classified Service, Unclassified Service, Chapter 63 State
Statutes, transfer of positions from Classified to Unclassified service. Questions were raised as
to whether there were 3 levels or 4 levels of positions that could be transferred to the unclassified
service. Corporation Counsel will investigate. It was clarified that Civil Service Rules do not
apply to individuals in the unclassified service unless specified in an Ordinance. County
Ordinances apply to all classifications.
Issue – Request from County Board Personnel Committee for a statistical analysis of
positions in the Executive Salary Group (ESG):
A basic analysis of individuals included in ESG was distributed. It was pointed out that various
County Supervisors on Personnel Committee had requested an analysis of salary levels by race
and gender. Rick Ceschin and James Eggers will work together to develop a report for the
Personnel Committee.
Issue – Positions in Executive Compensation Plan:
DHR staff reported that departments are requesting that certain positions in the ECP be
reclassified to a higher level in ECP and in some cases requesting that the position be placed into
the ESG. The Committee is still considering whether a ‘senior manager’ category should be
created. Discussion of issues of overtime will be deferred.
A listing of positions in the ECP and ESG was distributed. The definition included in the
Ordinances, of manager versus supervisor, was discussed. The general consensus was that the
definition is valid and that ECP should include top managers not executive directors. The
Committee also discussed why only positions in the Sheriff’s Department were included in the
ESG and no other positions from other elected officials, except the County Executive, were
included.
There was discussion on how, in the past, some positions were included in ECP when they
appear not to meet the definition of a manager. The Committee decided that positions in ECP
and ESG needed to be reviewed to determine if they are properly included in the individual
plans.
Next meeting: June 6, 2007, 10: 00–11:30 am.
Topic: Review of positions at BHD, DHHS and DAS-Administration

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
INTER-OFFICE COMMUNICATION

DATE:

June 4, 2007

TO:

Supervisor James G. White, Chairman, Committee on Transportation, Public
Works and Transit

FROM:

Pamela Bryant, Capital Finance Manager, Department of Administrative Services

SUBJECT:

INFORMATIONAL REPORT FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF
ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES REGARDING CONCERNING DUE
DILIGENCE RELATED TO GUARANTEED ENERGY SAVINGS
PERFORMANCE CONTRACTING

Issue
Pursuant to the referral from the Committee on Transportation and Public Works dated February
14, 2007, this report provides a summary of the due diligence analysis performed by the
Department of Administrative Services (DAS) for two of three existing Guaranteed Energy
Savings Performance Contract (GESPC) GESPC proposals.

Background
As directed by County Board resolution dated August 1, 2004 (File No. 04-267), an RFP/RFQ
was prepared to select a Guaranteed Energy Savings Performance Contract (GESPC) vendor to
assist Milwaukee County in achieving cost effective energy savings through repair and
enhancement of building infrastructure. Per the RFP/RFQ, Tthe intended GESPC agreement
wais to be self-funding, meaning all project costs were to beare offset by financial benefits
realized from energy savings.
The Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW) received approval in August 2006,
to award and execute a Technical Energy Audit & Project Development Contract (TEA&PD)
with three separate energy service companies (ESCOs): Honeywell, Ameresco and Johnson
Controls. The TEA&PD work represented an energy and water use audit by which potential
energy savings were identified through a Technical Energy Audit Report. The report included
both audit findings and a recommended scope of work that represented the ESCO’s performance
contract proposal for guaranteed energy savings.
As provided by Milwaukee County Administrative Code (Section 7.92), prior to entering
ventures involving non-county entities, the County must conduct a systematic due diligence
review is required for analyzing project feasibility and financial business risks. This report
summarizes DAS’ due diligence findings for two of the three GESPC proposals (as issued by
vendors Honeywell and Ameresco). The Honeywellformer ESCO proposal provides for facility
upgrades associated with the Milwaukee County Courthouse and Criminal Justice Facility, while
the Ameresco proposallatter proposes provides for upgrades to various parks facilities as well as

the Marcia P. Coggs Human Services Center. Due diligence analysis related to Johnson
Controls’ proposal for performance contracting work to occur at the Milwaukee County Zooand
involving Johnson Controls Inc. is still outstanding but will hopefully be completed in time for
the July County Board committee cycle.
The due diligence analysis was coordinated by DAS but also drew upon the skills and expertise
of various project team members represented by divisions throughout the County. Of special
note was the work provided by the Architecture, Environment & Engineering (AE&E) Director,
the AE&E engineering staff, Corporation Counsel and many managers associated with facilities
proposed for GESPC project work.
Summary of Two GESPC Proposals
Honeywell GESPC
This proposal involves a lighting upgrade for the Courthouse Building and Criminal Justice
Facility. The project consists of converting existing T12 fixtures, both magnetic and
electronically ballasted, to high performance 28-watt T8 lamps and high efficiency electronic
ballasts, either through retrofit or the replacement of fixtures.
For the Courthouse Building, the TEA&PD identified 8,835 fixtures for upgrade out of 9,134
fixtures existing. The Honeywell project pro forma estimates a savings of 1,231,055 kilowatthours (kWh) annually, providing an estimated $104,066 annual reduction in electricity costs.
For the Criminal Justice Facility, the TEA&PD identified 6,006 fixtures for upgrade out of 6,006
fixtures existing. Honeywell estimates a savings of 1,542,487 kWh annually, providing an
estimated $94,435 annual reduction in electricity costs for the facility. The estimated total
annual energy savings for the two facilities is $198,501.
The total estimated project cost covering the implementation of all energy conservation measures
is $1,541,615.
Ameresco GESPC
The Ameresco proposal recommends an energy savings approach to include various lighting,
mechanical and environmental control system upgrades. Identified energy conservation
measures are recommended for implementation throughout nine buildings under the Department
of Parks, Recreation, and Culture, as well as the Department of Health and Human Services’
primary facility, the Marcia P. Coggs Human Services Center.
The Ameresco project pro forma estimates a $162,519 annual savings for all energy conservation
measures associated with Parks buildings, and places annual estimated savings for the Coggs
Center at $101,114. Ameresco estimates total annual energy savings for the two facilities at
$263,633.
The total project cost covering the implementation of all energy conservation measures is
$1,585,868.

Due Diligence Methodology
In order to establish a methodology for due diligence that would be meaningful to policymakers,
DAS held numerous meetings with elected officials, departmental staff and the vendors to get a
sense of the key benefits that were anticipated from potentially pursuing GESPC proposals.
DAS then focused its due diligence efforts on evaluating whether those benefits would, indeed,
be realized. For both proposals, a uniform analysis was performed to evaluate priority-based
elements that further fiscal stability and operating efficiency for Milwaukee County. The
priorities were generated from themes common to discussions involving the merits of guaranteed
performance contracting. It is believed that tThe following concepts were commonly cited as
making have made performance contracting an attractive model for formal evaluation by the
County:
1) Current inefficiencies associated with energy consumption throughout the County
provide opportunity to achieve immediate efficiency gains and energy cost savings.
2) Projected increases in energy prices suggest efficiency initiatives will also be costeffective in the long term.
3) Financial costs associated with project work and financing is guaranteed to be recovered
as provided by the formal performance contract agreement. This contracted guarantee
ensures that energy savings will offset all annual project costs.
4) The financing method often associated with performance contracting (i.e. lease-purchase)
provides a sound alternative to General Obligation bonding and may be a beneficial
means of financing infrastructure improvements in light of constraints posed by County
debt policies and State caps.
Whereas the above claims were commonly made by both ESCOs as a result of technical energy
audit findings and cash flow pro forma materials, the due diligence endeavored to validate the
assumptions and calculations supporting these claims. The analysis also provided a detailed
evaluation of each proposal’s contractual guarantee for energy savings.
Of the benefits above, arguably the most important benefit cited by GESPC proponents is the
energy savings guarantee provided by each proposal. Unlike other pending maintenance projects
or upgrades, those related to GESPC come with a guaranteed return on investment, which might
suggest that But for this stated guarantee, it is generally less likely that GESPC project work
would have a higher priority for Milwaukee County departments than other priority projects.
within the department. This is evident based on previous departmental budget requests where
similar upgrades were not requested in previous years, though it is recognized there are certain
exceptions to this statement. Nevertheless, fFor this reason, the formal guarantee structure wais
given special emphasis in DAS’ analysis.

Explanation
Each ESCO, as part of the Technical Energy Audit and Project Development (TEA&PD)
Process, conducted an initial evaluation of Milwaukee County energy efficiency. This required a
comprehensive accounting of energy- consuming equipment throughout County facilities. This
accounting noted the efficiency levels of current equipment and provided estimates concerning
the duration of use, as well as the utility rates applicable to such use. The result provided the
ESCOs a 2006 baseline measure for energy consumption for each facility evaluated.
Where ESCOs identified an ability to upgrade equipment to a more efficient (i.e. less energy
consuming) form of equipmenthardware, the potential upgrade wasit was noted and further
evaluated by the ESCO in terms of its feasibility to earn a return on the investment through
future energy cost avoidance. The efficiency levels for both current and upgraded equipment
were assumed to conform to the manufacturer’s standard. Thus, the 2006 baseline measure for
energy consumption for a facility was made comparable to a consumption level where hours of
operation and utility rates would remain constant. The result of this TEA&PD work provided the
ESCO’s a baseline annual cost avoidance projection due to reduced energy consumption as
estimated using 2006 base year data. It is suggested that this base year amount of energy
savings is still achievable currently within one year of project implementation.
For Honeywell’s proposal projected the projected base year annual cost avoidance earned
through its proposed energy upgrades ofis $198,501, and for Ameresco’s proposal the projected
annual cost avoidance totaling value is $263,633.
Evaluation
To evaluate the TEA&PD work described and the resulting cost avoidance projection,
engineering staff from the AE&E Division formally reviewed each ESCO’s engineering
calculations, as well as assumptions concerning operational hours and conditions and, as well as
the assumed utility rates. The staff concluded that each ESCO’s engineering calculations
wereperformed are both correct and conservative. It was further determined that eachthe
ESCO’s assumptions related to operational use (e.g. duration), as well as the applicable utility
rates, weare reasonable. Thus, County engineering staff substantiates the projected annual
savings amounts as related to the ESCO’s baseline energy use measure.
It is important to note that the annual projected cost avoidance, as stated above, does not account
for project costs. Thus, the true financial impact of this savings will necessarily be recognized as
the net effect of total annual project costs combined with actual energy cost avoidance.
Benefit Statement #2:
Projected increases in energy prices suggest efficiency initiatives
will also be cost-effective in the long term.
Explanation
The actual rate of utility price increases over the 10-year performance period has a substantial
impact on the project’s cash flow. Any long-term projection of energy cost avoidance must

GESPC Due Diligence

necessarily factor in an estimate for utility rate increases. Should the County This is because
having implemented GESPC- related project work, itthe County would garner greater cost
savings should utility rates increase substantially over the 10-year period. The greater the cost
avoidance in future years, the greater the more return on an investment inthere is on investing in
GESPC performance contracting. On the other hand, if utility rates remain stable or increase
modestly over the 10-year performance period, the benefits associated with a GESPC initiative
would beare reduced, while project costs would remain.
While neither ESCO has provided Milwaukee County with a substantive utility rate forecast,
cash flow projections include, and GESPC contract language states, that an assumed 3% annual
increase for utility rates is expected for performance years beyond the base year. As a result,
each ESCO projects a cost avoidance benefit that similarly increases at a rate of 3% each year.
Based onAccording to these assumptions, andwhile including estimated project costs,
Honeywell’s ten-year projected benefit is $230,480 above total project costs. Ameresco’sThe
ten-year projected benefit for Ameresco is $793,642 above total project costs.
Evaluation
The evaluation of this assumption is problematic given that utility price forecasts and price
experience varies widely by U.S. region. In addition, WE Energies has been unwilling to
provide a long-term energy price forecast outside of its rate request made to the Ppublic sService
Ccommission. For this reason, a historic review was conducted concerning the County’s past
utility increases as the only proxy for the future.
Based on WE- Energiesy Rrate history, the Milwaukee County Courthouse experienced a
median annual increase of 2.8% for its electric rates and an average increase of 3.2% between
years 1998 and 2006. Given these figures, is as well as the knowledge that WE- Energies is
requesting a 7.5% rate increase for electric rates for both 2008 and 2009, a projected escalation
of electric costs seems reasonable. At the time of this report, similar data was unavailable for
natural gas prices.
Benefit Statement #3: Financial costs associated with project work and financing is
guaranteed for full recovery as provided by the formal performance contract agreement.
Explanation
A key attraction of the GESPC concept is the energy savings guarantee, which is assumed to
eliminate the financial risk of entering into a performance contract agreement. As often
explained, this guarantee is made part of the formal contractual relationship between the ESCO
and the County to ensure that financial benefits achieved by the County through its energy
savings will offset all annual project costs.
As part of the guarantee, the amount of energy savings achieved will be determined through a
measurement and verification process. This measurement and verification provides the basis for
annual energy reconciliation between the ESCO and the County. If the financial savings are not
achieved by the County, the ESCO will reimburse the County the guaranteed savings amount

CArcher_Email3013064

GESPC Due Diligence
Page 8

06/04/2007

unrealized. Additionally, all energy savings achieved above the targeted guarantee will be
credited to the County.
Evaluation
Detailed discussions with Honeywell and Ameresco, and a review of the contractual language
related to the energy savings guarantee have revealed several points of clarification that must be
understood by policymakers.
First, neither ESCO provides a true monetary guarantee for energy cost avoidance. The
guarantee structure is, in fact, designed to cover a reduced level of energy consumption based on
the installation of higher efficiency equipment. The difference in the equipment’s energy
efficiency standard, as detailed in the first benefit statement, has the function of providing
assurance that the reduced energy level has been achieved.
The stated financial benefit is simply an assumed cost reduction. This assumed financial savings
is based on the reduced energy consumption multiplied by an estimated base price for a given
utility during the first year. The stated financial benefit to the County for years beyond the base
year includes a similar calculation where an assumed 3% escalation rate is used for the utility
base price. Simply put, the method for calculating utility cost avoidance is directly derived from
the calculations associated with the TEA&PD work and does not factor County actual experience
in utility billing. It should be noted that this calculation effectively shelters the ESCO from
utility rate risk should utility prices stabilize or decrease.
It is also important to recognize that the measure and verification for the energy reconciliation
does not involve an ongoing review of actual utility costs experienced by the County. The
ESCOs may review utility bills as provided to them by the County and the ESCOs may use this
information to generate projected savings reports. However, as earlier stated, these records do
not have a role in the measurement and verification process for energy savings guarantee
purposes.
This is for two primary reasons. First, the method for calculating cost avoidance described
above does not require the use of actual utility bills nor does it factor actual utility rates. Again,
the rate is assumed at a base rate that escalates annually at 3%. Second, it is impractical to
isolate the benefits associated with energy upgrades through a utility bill audit. This is because
the size and complexity of energy consuming equipment throughout the County is commingled
through the utility meters that provide information on actual energy consumption.
Additionally, the measurement and verification method for utility cost avoidance is not
accurately represented as an ongoing evaluation by the ESCO where the outcome is likely to
change. As part of the measurement and verification, the ESCO takes a pre-implementation
measurement of energy use at the site where hardware is installed and a post-implementation
measurement subsequent to the upgrade. These measurements are to provide additional
assurance that the manufacturer’s performance specifications are accurate.
Since this type of measurement is not performed again in future years, the verification process
reflects a snapshot in time. Future measurement and verification involves a walk-through of the

CArcher_Email3013065

GESPC Due Diligence
Page 9

06/04/2007

facility by the ESCO to confirm the equipment is in working order and an applied assumption
concerning the utility rate increase applicable to the energy consuming equipment. In short, the
guarantee relies on a mathematical formula supported by the equipment’s energy efficiency
standard, and assumed hours of operation and utility rates. It does not rely on actual utility costs
as referenced through utility records and accounting measures.
Finally, policymakers should be aware that the duration of the energy savings guarantee is
dependent upon how a contract would be executed. Initially, both proposals included a
guarantee term of only three years. It should be noted that there is a negotiable cost of
approximately $25,000 per guarantee year. Most GESPC clients do not extend the guarantee
beyond three years. Presumably this is because many GESPC clients are satisfied that the
concept of guaranteed energy savings is proved in the early years of project implementation, and
that the verification process described above does not add ongoing value. Should the County
execute a GESPC agreement, it must determine the number of guarantee years for which it
wishes to contract.
Benefit Statement #4:
The financing method often associated with performance
contracting (i.e. lease-purchase) provides a sound alternative to General Obligation bonding
and may be a beneficial means of financing infrastructure improvements in light of
constraints posed by County debt policies and State caps.
THE BELOW IS PAM’S FINANCE WORK. YOU MAY WANT TO DISREGARD FOR
NOW WHILE I TRY TO MASSAGE IT IN.

Each ESCO’s proposal Energy savings performance contracting includes a mechanism to finance
the initiative. The analysis of the financing options should not be viewed as comprehensive since
there are various components of the lease/purchase and financing agreements that could not be
evaluated at this time. In addition, both Honeywell and Ameresco provided DAS with sample
financing contracts to review, and any implementation of performance contracting with the two
firms will require a formal review and analysis of the financing contracts.
The proposed mechanism for Honeywell is to enter into a State and Local lease/purchase
agreement (the”lease”) with Honeywell Global Finance LLC (HGF), a wholly owned subsidiary
of Honeywell International and a separate limited liability corporation. Ameresco does not have
a financing division within its company. Therefore, the County would have to enter into a
contract with an entity other than Ameresco to finance the improvements.
The DAS expressed concerns regarding the use of an outside financial entity and the County’s
policy regarding professional service contracts since the financing mechanism for Ameresco
does not fall within the parameters of its proposed the performance contracting agreement for
Ameresco. Corporation Counsel opined that since Ameresco would not provide the financing for
the improvements and HGF is a separate limited liability corporation, the County would have to
issue a request for proposals to select an entity to finance the improvements.
(Let Corp Counsel review and review proposal from Ameresco to determine if there is a stated
amount for the financing to determine if the amount exceeds $50,000.)

CArcher_Email3013066

GESPC Due Diligence

06/04/2007

As a part of the due diligence, a review was conducted by DAS to determine if it was more costeffective for the County to issue bonds to finance the initiative, as opposed to using or use the
proposed financing mechanism proposed by each ESCOby the Escos. The following
summarizes this review.
Honeywell Performance Contracting Improvements

Formatted

The performance contracting improvements for Honeywell’s proposal would involve the
replacement of lighting fixtures in the Courthouse and the Criminal Justice Facility. The unit
costs for the replacement of the light fixtures are below the County’s threshold for capitalization.
Therefore, the initiative would be characterized as an operating expense. State Statute prohibits
the County from issuing general obligation bonds for operating purposes. Therefore, the County
would not be able to issue tax-exempt general obligation bonds to finance the replacement of the
lighting fixtures. The County may be able to issue taxable bonds to finance the lighting
improvements.
(Need to verify with bond counsel and STFLP.)
HGF State and Local Lease/Purchase Agreement
If the County were to instead pursues financing from HGF, the loan amount would be
$1,600,000 for a term of 120 months or 10 years. The commencement date of the loan would be
determined by the date when the proceeds are deposited in an escrow account, or no later than
July 15, 2007. The escrow agent would be JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA. Milwaukee County
would be able select an escrow agent, subject to approval by HGF. The escrow agent fee per the
proposal is $500. (is this a one-time fee?)
The loan would be a non-cancelable net lease transaction whereby all costs for the improvements
and agreement would be on behalf of Milwaukee County. (verify with Honeywell)
The proposed interest rate on the loan is 4 percent, but was only valid through May 21, 2007.
Therefore, HGF wouldill be adjusting the rate two days prior to the funding date. , which is the
date that the proceeds would be deposited in the escrow (verify with Honeywell. If this is true,
obviously the County would have already signed the agreement) The rate wouldill be indexed to
the five year LIBOR/SWAP rate. The rate at the time of the proposal was 5.03 percent. Any
basis point change in the rate would result in an interest rate change of 68 percent.
(Need to verify with bond counsel and STFLP.)
HGF State and Local Lease/Purchase Agreement
The County is responsible for obtaining all of the necessary approvals for the lease agreement as
well as verifying that the interest on the loan would be tax-exempt. The County’s bond counsel
is in the process of verifying that the State of Wisconsin would treat the lease/purchase
agreement as a tax-exempt operating lease. The DAS has some concerns regarding the taxexempt status since the reason the County would not be able to issue tax-exempts bond is the
inability to bond for operating expenses based on State Statute. (verify with bond counsel.)

CArcher_Email3013067

GESPC Due Diligence

06/04/2007

Upon commencement of the lease, the County would owns the equipment. HGF would have a
first priority security interest on the equipment and related accessories. If the County were
unable to pay the lease payments for the improvements, HGF would have the right to obtain the
equipment and related accessories to cure the lease. Any payment that is pass due more than 30
days would be considered an event of default. In addition, to missing payments, there are other
actions that could trigger an event of default such as providing false or misleading information,
any other failure by the County to perform or comply with the terms and conditions of the
agreement beyond 30 days notice by Honeywell that the County is in breach of contract.

The agreement requires the County to maintain the equipment in accordance with manufacturer’s
standards, practices and specifications and take all reasonable measures to ensure the equipment
is operating at full efficiency. In addition, the County is required to replace any failed equipment
or component no longer warranted by Honeywell, or a Honeywell subcontractor, with equipment
or components of equal or greater efficiency value than installed by Honeywell, for the full
guarantee term. The County would bear the costs of compliance with these provisions.
The County will be given a one percent supply of replacement equipment during the warranty
period to replace any failed lighting equipment. Also, the County will be reimbursed ten dollars
for defective equipment replaced during the warranty period.
The current proposal for Honeywell expires on June 30, 2007.
Ameresco
Performance Contracting Improvements

Formatted

The performance contracting improvements for Ameresco would involve various improvements
to Parks and Health and Human Services Department facilities. Some of the improvements
would be classified as expensed and would not be eligible for tax-exempt general obligation
bond financing. (Chad, I don’t have the Ameresco’s book with me so I will have to review
projects to determine bond eligibility on Monday)

Ameresco Financing Option
As previously mentioned, the financing option for Ameresco would involve the engagement of a
financing contract between Milwaukee County and an entity other than Ameresco. Ameresco
has offered to assist with the selection of the financing entity but would not be involved in
providing the financing service. The evaluation of the Ameresco financing option was limited
by the lack of a financing entity since more definitive financing terms could not be outlined.
Based on the information that was provided to DAS, the term of the lease would be 126 months:
six months of interest- only payments during construction plus 120 months of principal and
interest payments for the remaining amortization period.
The commencement date would be the date the proceeds were deposited in the escrow account.
The County would experience an event of default if it were to miss a payment longer than five
days beyond the payment date. Similar to the Honeywell agreement, there are other provisions

CArcher_Email3013068

GESPC Due Diligence
Page 12

06/04/2007

that would trigger a default such as a failure to keep and maintain equipment in a as good
operating condition as when delivered to the County, beyond ordinary wear and tear resulting
from proper use. Therefore, County staff must provide all maintenance and service and make all
repairs reasonably necessary for such purpose or have a service agreement for the duration of the
lease term.
Any decision to proceed with entering into an energy savings performance contract with
Honeywell or Ameresco would be contingent upon the reconciliation of the financing options
and the conditions of the lease/purchase agreement.
Conclusion
Based on a reasonable projection of future utility rates, and on an engineering analysis performed
by Milwaukee County’s AE&E Division, the due diligence suggests it is probable that project
costs for the two GESPC proposals would be recovered and exceeded by savings achieved
through reduced energy consumption. However, as noted above, neither ESCO intends to
provide a contractual guarantee based on actual utility cost records, which means that while
project cost recovery is probable, it is not truly “guaranteed”.
The decision on whether to proceed with each ESCO largely involves priorities. Milwaukee
County is facing numerous deferred maintenance and infrastructure needs, and it has not been
determined that the lighting fixture and other upgrades for the Courthouse, Criminal Justice
Facility, Coggs Center and certain Parks facilities contained in the two GESPC proposals are at
the top of the priority list. Conversely, the fact that these upgrades hold considerable promise of
paying for themselves makes them attractive, as does the promise of energy savings that have
positive environmental ramifications and that would enable Milwaukee County to set a good
example for other area businesses and institutions.
If policymakers wish to proceed with one or both of these projects, then it is recommended that
DAS be authorized and directed to work with Corporation Counsel and each ESCO to determine
final financing terms and arrangements, as well as final contractual terms with the ESCO, and to
submit those terms and arrangements to the Transportation and Public Works and Finance and
Audit Committees for final approval. DAS also should be authorized to conduct an RFP process
to identify a financing entity, and County Board approval would be required for a contract as
well as any final financing terms. An alternative approach would be to delay action on these
proposals until the 2008 Budget process so that they could be considered in the context of other
major maintenance and facility upgrade demands.

Pamela Bryant, Capital Finance Manager, Department of Administrative Services

SUBJECT:

INFORMATIONAL REPORT FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF
ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES REGARDING CONCERNING DUE
DILIGENCE RELATED TO GUARANTEED ENERGY SAVINGS
PERFORMANCE CONTRACTING

Issue
Pursuant to the referral from the Committee on Transportation and Public Works dated February
14, 2007, this report provides a summary of the due diligence analysis performed by the
Department of Administrative Services (DAS) for two of three existing Guaranteed Energy
Savings Performance Contract (GESPC) GESPC proposals.

Background
As directed by County Board resolution dated August 1, 2004 (File No. 04-267), an RFP/RFQ
was prepared to select a Guaranteed Energy Savings Performance Contract (GESPC) vendor to
assist Milwaukee County in achieving cost effective energy savings through repair and
enhancement of building infrastructure. Per the RFP/RFQ, Tthe intended GESPC agreement
wais to be self-funding, meaning all project costs were to beare offset by financial benefits
realized from energy savings.
The Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW) received approval in August 2006,
to award and execute a Technical Energy Audit & Project Development Contract (TEA&PD)
with three separate energy service companies (ESCOs): Honeywell, Ameresco and Johnson
Controls. The TEA&PD work represented an energy and water use audit by which potential
energy savings were identified through a Technical Energy Audit Report. The report included
both audit findings and a recommended scope of work that represented the ESCO’s performance
contract proposal for guaranteed energy savings.
As provided by Milwaukee County Administrative Code (Section 7.92), prior to entering
ventures involving non-county entities, the County must conduct a systematic due diligence
review is required for analyzing project feasibility and financial business risks. This report
summarizes DAS’ due diligence findings for two of the three GESPC proposals (as issued by
vendors Honeywell and Ameresco). The Honeywellformer ESCO proposal provides for facility
upgrades associated with the Milwaukee County Courthouse and Criminal Justice Facility, while
the Ameresco proposallatter proposes provides for upgrades to various parks facilities as well as

CArcher_Email3013071

the Marcia P. Coggs Human Services Center. Due diligence analysis related to Johnson
Controls’ proposal for performance contracting work to occur at the Milwaukee County Zooand
involving Johnson Controls Inc. is still outstanding but will hopefully be completed in time for
the July County Board committee cycle.
The due diligence analysis was coordinated by DAS but also drew upon the skills and expertise
of various project team members represented by divisions throughout the County. Of special
note was the work provided by the Architecture, Environment & Engineering (AE&E) Director,
the AE&E engineering staff, Corporation Counsel and many managers associated with facilities
proposed for GESPC project work.
Summary of Two GESPC Proposals
Honeywell GESPC
This proposal involves a lighting upgrade for the Courthouse Building and Criminal Justice
Facility. The project consists of converting existing T12 fixtures, both magnetic and
electronically ballasted, to high performance 28-watt T8 lamps and high efficiency electronic
ballasts, either through retrofit or the replacement of fixtures.
For the Courthouse Building, the TEA&PD identified 8,835 fixtures for upgrade out of 9,134
fixtures existing. The Honeywell project pro forma estimates a savings of 1,231,055 kilowatthours (kWh) annually, providing an estimated $104,066 annual reduction in electricity costs.
For the Criminal Justice Facility, the TEA&PD identified 6,006 fixtures for upgrade out of 6,006
fixtures existing. Honeywell estimates a savings of 1,542,487 kWh annually, providing an
estimated $94,435 annual reduction in electricity costs for the facility. The estimated total
annual energy savings for the two facilities is $198,501.
The total estimated project cost covering the implementation of all energy conservation measures
is $1,541,615.
Ameresco GESPC
The Ameresco proposal recommends an energy savings approach to include various lighting,
mechanical and environmental control system upgrades. Identified energy conservation
measures are recommended for implementation throughout nine buildings under the Department
of Parks, Recreation, and Culture, as well as the Department of Health and Human Services’
primary facility, the Marcia P. Coggs Human Services Center.
The Ameresco project pro forma estimates a $162,519 annual savings for all energy conservation
measures associated with Parks buildings, and places annual estimated savings for the Coggs
Center at $101,114. Ameresco estimates total annual energy savings for the two facilities at
$263,633.
The total project cost covering the implementation of all energy conservation measures is
$1,585,868.

Due Diligence Methodology
In order to establish a methodology for due diligence that would be meaningful to policymakers,
DAS held numerous meetings with elected officials, departmental staff and the vendors to get a
sense of the key benefits that were anticipated from potentially pursuing GESPC proposals.
DAS then focused its due diligence efforts on evaluating whether those benefits would, indeed,
be realized. For both proposals, a uniform analysis was performed to evaluate priority-based
elements that further fiscal stability and operating efficiency for Milwaukee County. The
priorities were generated from themes common to discussions involving the merits of guaranteed
performance contracting. It is believed that tThe following concepts were commonly cited as
making have made performance contracting an attractive model for formal evaluation by the
County:
1) Current inefficiencies associated with energy consumption throughout the County
provide opportunity to achieve immediate efficiency gains and energy cost savings.
2) Projected increases in energy prices suggest efficiency initiatives will also be costeffective in the long term.
3) Financial costs associated with project work and financing is guaranteed to be recovered
as provided by the formal performance contract agreement. This contracted guarantee
ensures that energy savings will offset all annual project costs.
4) The financing method often associated with performance contracting (i.e. lease-purchase)
provides a sound alternative to General Obligation bonding and may be a beneficial
means of financing infrastructure improvements in light of constraints posed by County
debt policies and State caps.
Whereas the above claims were commonly made by both ESCOs as a result of technical energy
audit findings and cash flow pro forma materials, the due diligence endeavored to validate the
assumptions and calculations supporting these claims. The analysis also provided a detailed
evaluation of each proposal’s contractual guarantee for energy savings.
Of the benefits above, arguably the most important benefit cited by GESPC proponents is the
energy savings guarantee provided by each proposal. Unlike other pending maintenance projects
or upgrades, those related to GESPC come with a guaranteed return on investment, which might
suggest that But for this stated guarantee, it is generally less likely that GESPC project work
would have a higher priority for Milwaukee County departments than other priority projects.
within the department. This is evident based on previous departmental budget requests where
similar upgrades were not requested in previous years, though it is recognized there are certain
exceptions to this statement. Nevertheless, fFor this reason, the formal guarantee structure wais
given special emphasis in DAS’ analysis.

Benefit Statement #1:

Current inefficiencies associated with energ

Explanation
Each ESCO, as part of the Technical Energy Audit and Project Development (TEA&PD)
Process, conducted an initial evaluation of Milwaukee County energy efficiency. This required a
comprehensive accounting of energy- consuming equipment throughout County facilities. This
accounting noted the efficiency levels of current equipment and provided estimates concerning
the duration of use, as well as the utility rates applicable to such use. The result provided the
ESCOs a 2006 baseline measure for energy consumption for each facility evaluated.
Where ESCOs identified an ability to upgrade equipment to a more efficient (i.e. less energy
consuming) form of equipmenthardware, the potential upgrade wasit was noted and further
evaluated by the ESCO in terms of its feasibility to earn a return on the investment through
future energy cost avoidance. The efficiency levels for both current and upgraded equipment
were assumed to conform to the manufacturer’s standard. Thus, the 2006 baseline measure for
energy consumption for a facility was made comparable to a consumption level where hours of
operation and utility rates would remain constant. The result of this TEA&PD work provided the
ESCO’s a baseline annual cost avoidance projection due to reduced energy consumption as
estimated using 2006 base year data. It is suggested that this base year amount of energy
savings is still achievable currently within one year of project implementation.
For Honeywell’s proposal projected the projected base year annual cost avoidance earned
through its proposed energy upgrades ofis $198,501, and for Ameresco’s proposal the projected
annual cost avoidance totaling value is $263,633.
Evaluation
To evaluate the TEA&PD work described and the resulting cost avoidance projection,
engineering staff from the AE&E Division formally reviewed each ESCO’s engineering
calculations, as well as assumptions concerning operational hours and conditions and, as well as
the assumed utility rates. The staff concluded that each ESCO’s engineering calculations
wereperformed are both correct and conservative. It was further determined that eachthe
ESCO’s assumptions related to operational use (e.g. duration), as well as the applicable utility
rates, weare reasonable. Thus, County engineering staff substantiates the projected annual
savings amounts as related to the ESCO’s baseline energy use measure.
It is important to note that the annual projected cost avoidance, as stated above, does not account
for project costs. Thus, the true financial impact of this savings will necessarily be recognized as
the net effect of total annual project costs combined with actual energy cost avoidance.
Benefit Statement #2:
Projected increases in energy prices suggest efficiency initiatives
will also be cost-effective in the long term.
Explanation
The actual rate of utility price increases over the 10-year performance period has a substantial
impact on the project’s cash flow. Any long-term projection of energy cost avoidance must

CArcher_Email3013076

GESPC Due Diligence
Page 7

06/04/2007

necessarily factor in an estimate for utility rate increases. Should the County This is because
having implemented GESPC- related project work, itthe County would garner greater cost
savings should utility rates increase substantially over the 10-year period. The greater the cost
avoidance in future years, the greater the more return on an investment inthere is on investing in
GESPC performance contracting. On the other hand, if utility rates remain stable or increase
modestly over the 10-year performance period, the benefits associated with a GESPC initiative
would beare reduced, while project costs would remain.
While neither ESCO has provided Milwaukee County with a substantive utility rate forecast,
cash flow projections include, and GESPC contract language states, that an assumed 3% annual
increase for utility rates is expected for performance years beyond the base year. As a result,
each ESCO projects a cost avoidance benefit that similarly increases at a rate of 3% each year.
Based onAccording to these assumptions, andwhile including estimated project costs,
Honeywell’s ten-year projected benefit is $230,480 above total project costs. Ameresco’sThe
ten-year projected benefit for Ameresco is $793,642 above total project costs.
Evaluation
The evaluation of this assumption is problematic given that utility price forecasts and price
experience varies widely by U.S. region. In addition, WE Energies has been unwilling to
provide a long-term energy price forecast outside of its rate request made to the Ppublic sService
Ccommission. For this reason, a historic review was conducted concerning the County’s past
utility increases as the only proxy for the future.
Based on WE- Energiesy Rrate history, the Milwaukee County Courthouse experienced a
median annual increase of 2.8% for its electric rates and an average increase of 3.2% between
years 1998 and 2006. Given these figures, is as well as the knowledge that WE- Energies is
requesting a 7.5% rate increase for electric rates for both 2008 and 2009, a projected escalation
of electric costs seems reasonable. At the time of this report, similar data was unavailable for
natural gas prices.
Benefit Statement #3: Financial costs associated with project work and financing is
guaranteed for full recovery as provided by the formal performance contract agreement.
Explanation
A key attraction of the GESPC concept is the energy savings guarantee, which is assumed to
eliminate the financial risk of entering into a performance contract agreement. As often
explained, this guarantee is made part of the formal contractual relationship between the ESCO
and the County to ensure that financial benefits achieved by the County through its energy
savings will offset all annual project costs.
As part of the guarantee, the amount of energy savings achieved will be determined through a
measurement and verification process. This measurement and verification provides the basis for
annual energy reconciliation between the ESCO and the County. If the financial savings are not
achieved by the County, the ESCO will reimburse the County the guaranteed savings amount

unrealized. Additionally, all energy savings achieved above the targeted guarantee will be
credited to the County.
Evaluation
Detailed discussions with Honeywell and Ameresco, and a review of the contractual language
related to the energy savings guarantee have revealed several points of clarification that must be
understood by policymakers.
First, neither ESCO provides a true monetary guarantee for energy cost avoidance. The
guarantee structure is, in fact, designed to cover a reduced level of energy consumption based on
the installation of higher efficiency equipment. The difference in the equipment’s energy
efficiency standard, as detailed in the first benefit statement, has the function of providing
assurance that the reduced energy level has been achieved.
The stated financial benefit is simply an assumed cost reduction. This assumed financial savings
is based on the reduced energy consumption multiplied by an estimated base price for a given
utility during the first year. The stated financial benefit to the County for years beyond the base
year includes a similar calculation where an assumed 3% escalation rate is used for the utility
base price. Simply put, the method for calculating utility cost avoidance is directly derived from
the calculations associated with the TEA&PD work and does not factor County actual experience
in utility billing. It should be noted that this calculation effectively shelters the ESCO from
utility rate risk should utility prices stabilize or decrease.
It is also important to recognize that the measure and verification for the energy reconciliation
does not involve an ongoing review of actual utility costs experienced by the County. The
ESCOs may review utility bills as provided to them by the County and the ESCOs may use this
information to generate projected savings reports. However, as earlier stated, these records do
not have a role in the measurement and verification process for energy savings guarantee
purposes.
This is for two primary reasons. First, the method for calculating cost avoidance described
above does not require the use of actual utility bills nor does it factor actual utility rates. Again,
the rate is assumed at a base rate that escalates annually at 3%. Second, it is impractical to
isolate the benefits associated with energy upgrades through a utility bill audit. This is because
the size and complexity of energy consuming equipment throughout the County is commingled
through the utility meters that provide information on actual energy consumption.
Additionally, the measurement and verification method for utility cost avoidance is not
accurately represented as an ongoing evaluation by the ESCO where the outcome is likely to
change. As part of the measurement and verification, the ESCO takes a pre-implementation
measurement of energy use at the site where hardware is installed and a post-implementation
measurement subsequent to the upgrade. These measurements are to provide additional
assurance that the manufacturer’s performance specifications are accurate.
Since this type of measurement is not performed again in future years, the verification process
reflects a snapshot in time. Future measurement and verification involves a walk-through of the

CArcher_Email3013078

GESPC Due Diligence
Page 9

06/04/2007

facility by the ESCO to confirm the equipment is in working order and an applied assumption
concerning the utility rate increase applicable to the energy consuming equipment. In short, the
guarantee relies on a mathematical formula supported by the equipment’s energy efficiency
standard, and assumed hours of operation and utility rates. It does not rely on actual utility costs
as referenced through utility records and accounting measures.
Finally, policymakers should be aware that the duration of the energy savings guarantee is
dependent upon how a contract would be executed. Initially, both proposals included a
guarantee term of only three years. It should be noted that there is a negotiable cost of
approximately $25,000 per guarantee year. Most GESPC clients do not extend the guarantee
beyond three years. Presumably this is because many GESPC clients are satisfied that the
concept of guaranteed energy savings is proved in the early years of project implementation, and
that the verification process described above does not add ongoing value. Should the County
execute a GESPC agreement, it must determine the number of guarantee years for which it
wishes to contract.
Benefit Statement #4:
The financing method often associated with performance
contracting (i.e. lease-purchase) provides a sound alternative to General Obligation bonding
and may be a beneficial means of financing infrastructure improvements in light of
constraints posed by County debt policies and State caps.
THE BELOW IS PAM’S FINANCE WORK. YOU MAY WANT TO DISREGARD FOR
NOW WHILE I TRY TO MASSAGE IT IN.

Each ESCO’s proposal Energy savings performance contracting includes a mechanism to finance
the initiative. The analysis of the financing options should not be viewed as comprehensive since
there are various components of the lease/purchase and financing agreements that could not be
evaluated at this time. In addition, both Honeywell and Ameresco provided DAS with sample
financing contracts to review, and any implementation of performance contracting with the two
firms will require a formal review and analysis of the financing contracts.
The proposed mechanism for Honeywell is to enter into a State and Local lease/purchase
agreement (the”lease”) with Honeywell Global Finance LLC (HGF), a wholly owned subsidiary
of Honeywell International and a separate limited liability corporation. Ameresco does not have
a financing division within its company. Therefore, the County would have to enter into a
contract with an entity other than Ameresco to finance the improvements.
The DAS expressed concerns regarding the use of an outside financial entity and the County’s
policy regarding professional service contracts since the financing mechanism for Ameresco
does not fall within the parameters of its proposed the performance contracting agreement for
Ameresco. Corporation Counsel opined that since Ameresco would not provide the financing for
the improvements and HGF is a separate limited liability corporation, the County would have to
issue a request for proposals to select an entity to finance the improvements.
(Let Corp Counsel review and review proposal from Ameresco to determine if there is a stated
amount for the financing to determine if the amount exceeds $50,000.)

CArcher_Email3013079

GESPC Due Diligence
Page 10

06/04/2007

As a part of the due diligence, a review was conducted by DAS to determine if it was more costeffective for the County to issue bonds to finance the initiative, as opposed to using or use the
proposed financing mechanism proposed by each ESCOby the Escos. The following
summarizes this review.
Honeywell Performance Contracting Improvements

Formatted

The performance contracting improvements for Honeywell’s proposal would involve the
replacement of lighting fixtures in the Courthouse and the Criminal Justice Facility. The unit
costs for the replacement of the light fixtures are below the County’s threshold for capitalization.
Therefore, the initiative would be characterized as an operating expense. State Statute prohibits
the County from issuing general obligation bonds for operating purposes. Therefore, the County
would not be able to issue tax-exempt general obligation bonds to finance the replacement of the
lighting fixtures.
The County may be able to issue taxable bonds to finance the lighting improvements or contact
the Bureau of Commissioners of Public Lands to determine if the County could obtain a loan
from the State Trust Fund Loan Program. As of the week of June 4, 2007, rates for taxable
general obligation bond debt are slightly higher than the 5.25 percent rate for a ten-year loan
from the State Trust Fund Loan program.
(Need to verify with bond counsel and STFLP.)
HGF State and Local Lease/Purchase Agreement
If the County were to instead pursues financing from HGF, the loan amount would be
$1,600,000 for a term of 120 months or 10 years. The commencement date of the loan would be
determined by the date when the proceeds are deposited in an escrow account, or no later than
July 15, 2007. The escrow agent would be JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA. Milwaukee County
would be able select an escrow agent, subject to approval by HGF. The escrow agent fee per the
proposal is $500. (is this a one-time fee?)
The loan would be a non-cancelable net lease transaction whereby all costs for the improvements
and agreement would be on behalf of Milwaukee County. (verify with Honeywell)
The proposed interest rate on the loan is 4 percent, but was only valid through May 21, 2007.
Therefore, HGF wouldill be adjusting the rate two days prior to the funding date. , which is the
date that the proceeds would be deposited in the escrow (verify with Honeywell. If this is true,
obviously the County would have already signed the agreement) The rate wouldill be indexed to
the five year LIBOR/SWAP rate. The rate at the time of the proposal was 5.03 percent. Any
basis point change in the rate would result in an interest rate change of 68 percent.
(Need to verify with bond counsel and STFLP.)
HGF State and Local Lease/Purchase Agreement
The County is responsible for obtaining all of the necessary approvals for the lease agreement as
well as verifying that the interest on the loan would be tax-exempt. The County’s bond counsel
is in the process of verifying that the State of Wisconsin would treat the lease/purchase

CArcher_Email3013080

GESPC Due Diligence
Page 11

06/04/2007

agreement as a tax-exempt operating lease. The DAS has some concerns regarding the taxexempt status since the reason the County would not be able to issue tax-exempts bond is the
inability to bond for operating expenses based on State Statute. (verify with bond counsel.)

Upon commencement of the lease, the County would owns the equipment. HGF would have a
first priority security interest on the equipment and related accessories. If the County were
unable to pay the lease payments for the improvements, HGF would have the right to obtain the
equipment and related accessories to cure the lease. Any payment that is pass due more than 30
days would be considered an event of default. In addition, to missing payments, there are other
actions that could trigger an event of default such as providing false or misleading information,
any other failure by the County to perform or comply with the terms and conditions of the
agreement beyond 30 days notice by Honeywell that the County is in breach of contract.

The agreement requires the County to maintain the equipment in accordance with manufacturer’s
standards, practices and specifications and take all reasonable measures to ensure the equipment
is operating at full efficiency. In addition, the County is required to replace any failed equipment
or component no longer warranted by Honeywell, or a Honeywell subcontractor, with equipment
or components of equal or greater efficiency value than installed by Honeywell, for the full
guarantee term. The County would bear the costs of compliance with these provisions.
The County will be given a one percent supply of replacement equipment during the warranty
period to replace any failed lighting equipment. Also, the County will be reimbursed ten dollars
for defective equipment replaced during the warranty period.
The current proposal for Honeywell expires on June 30, 2007.
Ameresco
Performance Contracting Improvements

Formatted

The performance contracting improvements for Ameresco would involve various improvements
to Parks and Health and Human Services Department facilities. Some of the improvements
would be classified as expensed and would not be eligible for tax-exempt general obligation
bond financing. (Chad, I don’t have the Ameresco’s book with me so I will have to review
projects to determine bond eligibility on Monday)

Ameresco Financing Option
As previously mentioned, the financing option for Ameresco would involve the engagement of a
financing contract between Milwaukee County and an entity other than Ameresco. Ameresco
has offered to assist with the selection of the financing entity but would not be involved in
providing the financing service. The evaluation of the Ameresco financing option was limited
by the lack of a financing entity since more definitive financing terms could not be outlined.

CArcher_Email3013081

GESPC Due Diligence
Page 12

06/04/2007

Based on the information that was provided to DAS, the term of the lease would be 126 months:
six months of interest- only payments during construction plus 120 months of principal and
interest payments for the remaining amortization period.
The commencement date would be the date the proceeds were deposited in the escrow account.
The County would experience an event of default if it were to miss a payment longer than five
days beyond the payment date. Similar to the Honeywell agreement, there are other provisions
that would trigger a default such as a failure to keep and maintain equipment in a as good
operating condition as when delivered to the County, beyond ordinary wear and tear resulting
from proper use. Therefore, County staff must provide all maintenance and service and make all
repairs reasonably necessary for such purpose or have a service agreement for the duration of the
lease term.
Any decision to proceed with entering into an energy savings performance contract with
Honeywell or Ameresco would be contingent upon the reconciliation of the financing options
and the conditions of the lease/purchase agreement.
Conclusion
Based on a reasonable projection of future utility rates, and on an engineering analysis performed
by Milwaukee County’s AE&E Division, the due diligence suggests it is probable that project
costs for the two GESPC proposals would be recovered and exceeded by savings achieved
through reduced energy consumption. However, as noted above, neither ESCO intends to
provide a contractual guarantee based on actual utility cost records, which means that while
project cost recovery is probable, it is not truly “guaranteed”.
The decision on whether to proceed with each ESCO largely involves priorities. Milwaukee
County is facing numerous deferred maintenance and infrastructure needs, and it has not been
determined that the lighting fixture and other upgrades for the Courthouse, Criminal Justice
Facility, Coggs Center and certain Parks facilities contained in the two GESPC proposals are at
the top of the priority list. Conversely, the fact that these upgrades hold considerable promise of
paying for themselves makes them attractive, as does the promise of energy savings that have
positive environmental ramifications and that would enable Milwaukee County to set a good
example for other area businesses and institutions.
If policymakers wish to proceed with one or both of these projects, then it is recommended that
DAS be authorized and directed to work with Corporation Counsel and each ESCO to determine
final financing terms and arrangements, as well as final contractual terms with the ESCO, and to
submit those terms and arrangements to the Transportation and Public Works and Finance and
Audit Committees for final approval. In the case of the Ameresco proposal, DAS also should be
authorized to conduct an RFP process to identify a financing entity, and County Board approval
would be required for a contract as well as any final financing terms. An alternative approach
would be to delay action on these proposals until the 2008 Budget process so that they could be
considered in the context of other major maintenance and facility upgrade demands.

        Analysts assignments





With the new analysts starting I would like to reach resolution on assignments
before they begin. I have spent alot of time thinking about this and looking
at various alternatives. My goal is twofold -- one, I want to avoid
fragmenting departments between multiple analysts and two, I want there to be a
clearer distinction between operating and capital with Molly supervising all
operating issues and Pam supervising all capital issues.
The departments that we seem to fragment the most are DAS and DTPW. Again, I
would like the operating budgets for these departments to be under the
direction of Molly and I would like one analyst responsible for each of these
department's operating budgets. Pam would of course maintain all capital
responsibilities. I would also like, if possible, there to be one analysts
assigned to DAS.
On the face of it, I it appears that the Capital team has two analysts split
between operating and Capital. James does facilities operating and fringe
benefits and capital assignments. Chad is also split between Capital and
operating. It seems to me, we could move Chad back to operating and remove
from James's assignment his operating responsibilities leaving James with 100%
capital.

CArcher_Email3013084

I understand this model is a departure from the recent practice of mixing
operating budgets into the Capital team. I would like to, if at all possible,
move back to having an operating team and a capital team with issues that will
obviously need to be coordinated.
I would like the two of you to sit down and bring me your ideas on how to
accomplish this as well as any pros and cons you see with the above approach.
So as not to create any undue stress among the anlaysts, I would like these
discussions limited to us for now until we get a cleared vision of what we are
thinking.

I think we need to have this conversation tomorrow, then. We need to figure
out ASAP how we want to approach ECD's requested budget.
Also, Cindy and Molly, we need to review the requirements for requested budgets
regarding public hearings and statements from department heads that are
contained in the Statutes and Ordinances and figure out what we need to do to
comply.   The Exec needs to start thinking about scheduling public meetings
over the summer, and we need to instruct department heads on the new
requirement that Nyklewicz put in the Ordinances last year for Department heads
to provide reports to Finance regarding impacts of their requested budgets.

LEASE
THIS INDENTURE OF LEASE, (herein called the “Lease”), made and entered
into as of the ______________day of
, 2007; by and between MILWAUKEE
COUNTY, a municipal corporation of the State of Wisconsin, as represented by the
Department Of Parks, Recreation & Culture as lessor (herein called “County” or
“Lessor”), and FRIENDS OF HOYT PARK AND POOL, INC. (FRIENDS), a Wisconsin
non-stock corporation, as Lessee.
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
Milwaukee County is the owner of Hoyt Park, located adjacent to the
Menomonee River in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin. Hoyt Park was deeded by the City of
Wauwatosa to Milwaukee County in 1937 with the understanding that a swimming
pool would be constructed and maintained at that location. Milwaukee County
constructed Hoyt Park Pool and Bathhouse, which are located in the Park but have
not been operable since 2002. Friends of Hoyt Park, the predecessor of FRIENDS,
was formed as a grassroots citizens organization in February 2006, and was
established in April 2006 as a unit of The Park People. FRIENDS was incorporated
as a Wisconsin non-stock corporation on July 14, 2006 for the purposes of raising
funds, constructing, endowing, maintaining and operating a multi-generational,
family-oriented aquatic pool and community meeting facility and related facilities
at Hoyt Park for use by all Milwaukee County residents, and by visitors to
Milwaukee County. FRIENDS’ proposed related facilities at Hoyt Park include a
coffee shop, a concessions stand, and similar facilities to support the Pool’s overall
operation, which may also include the renovation of the existing Hoyt Park
Bathhouse for such uses. Pursuant to Adopted County Board Resolution (County
Board File No. 06-_______, adopted ____________, 2007) Milwaukee County has
agreed, subject to contingency, to lease the site of the existing but inoperable Hoyt
Park Pool and Bathhouse to FRIENDS for these purposes.
WITNESSETH
1. DEMISED PREMISES. Lessor does hereby lease, let and demise unto
Lessee, and Lessee does hereby lease and rent those portions of land, building and.
Improvements (the “Property”) located at what is commonly known as Hoyt Park
Pool and Bathhouse situated in the City of Wauwatosa, County of Milwaukee, State
of Wisconsin, as shown on Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof and
on that certain parcel of real estate legally described on Exhibit B attached hereto
and hereby made a part of the Lease, with all easements, licenses, rights, privileges,
hereditaments and appurtenances thereunto belonging, all collectively referred to
as the “Premises.”

3. CONTINGENCY. This Lease and the obligations of Lessor and Lessee
hereunder are contingent upon Lessee complying with Milwaukee County “Due
Diligence” requirements (see attached, as exhibit XXXX) and upon Lessee obtaining on
or before that date which is twelve (12) months from the Preoccupancy
Commencement Date or such other date as mutually agreed upon in writing by
Lessee and Lessor, (the “Contingency Expiration Date”), such grants, contributions
and/or funds from any other source in an amount of not less than 80 percent of the
estimated $5.9$6 million cost of the proposed Pool and associated facilities, and, the
one million dollar ($1,000,000.00) funding necessary for establishing the endowment
funds referred to in §5(b), infra. It is acknowledged and agreed that Lessee shall
secure grants, contributions and pledges for contributions for the purpose of
establishing an endowment to be used for the future maintenance, operating expense
and improvement of the Premises. In the event Lessee has timely achieved its
Financing Goal, Lessee shall give written notice of same to Lessor on or before the
Contingency Expiration Date, in which event the Lease shall remain in force and
effective in accordance with the terms and conditions recited herein. The Term
Commencement Date shall be deemed to have begun on the first day of the month
following such written notice of Lessee having achieved its Financing Goal and
complied with County “Due Diligence” requirements. The target for the Term
Commencement Date is August 2008 or such other date as mutually agreed upon
in writing by Lessee and Lessor. In the event Lessee gives written notice to Lessor on
or before the Contingency Expiration Date that it has not achieved its Goal, or in the
event Lessee fails to give written notice to Lessor on or before the Contingency
Expiration Date, the Lease shall be deemed terminated and neither Lessor nor Lessee
shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder. However, Lessee may request
an extension of said Contingency Expiration Date in the event Lessee provides
satisfactory evidence to Lessor that Lessee has materially progressed towards such
Financing Goal.

4. EXTENDED TERM. If, at the conclusion of the Initial Term of this Lease,
Lessee is not in default of its duties and obligations under this Lease, Lessee, at its
option, may, with Lessor’s consent, by the Director of the Milwaukee County
Department Of Parks, Recreation & Culture, which consent will not be
unreasonably denied, conditioned or delayed, extend the term of this Lease for an

any term to the contrary in this Lease, Lessee's duties set forth in this subsection
shall in no way modify, amend, limit, or restrict Lessee's obligations as set forth
in paragraph 10 (b) hereof.

5. RENT.
(a) Rental Payments.
Effective as of the Term Commencement Date, Lessee shall pay, as rent for
the use and occupancy of the Premises, Lessor, c/o Director, Milwaukee County
Department Of Parks, Recreation & Culture, 9480 Watertown Plank Road,
Wauwatosa, Wisconsin 53226, or at such other place Lessor shall direct by
written notice to Lessee, an annual base rent amount of one dollar.
The foregoing rent shall be payable in advance for all years of the current
term; upon commencement of each term, and shall be made to Lessor. Lessee
hereby acknowledges and agrees to be bound by Milwaukee County Ordinance
56.32 which provides for the imposition of penalties and interest for delinquent
rental payments.

(b) Additional Consideration1.

This paragraph needs clarification. Do we have 4 endowments or 1 that is used for 4 purposes?
It appears that we have 4 different endowments. Clarification is needed on how each of the
endowment funds are to be financed (grants, contributions and pledges as well as profits?) and
what balance will remain in each fund. Does each get a portion of the funding, or is one fund set
up in full before funds are placed into the next fund, etc? There should also be mention that the
endowment fund reserves shall become the property of Milwaukee County upon the termination or
expiration of the lease.

Lessee shall establish the endowment funds referred to hereinafter with initial deposits
totaling one million dollars ($1,000,000.00). As additional consideration, Lessee
agrees to use revenues resulting from its operation of the Property as follows 2:
income from Lessee’s operation of the Property (excess of revenues over expenses
and depreciation) shall be utilized by Lessee first, for augmenting a major
maintenance, repair and replacement endowment fund maintained by Lessee to
assure long-term major maintenance, upkeep, repair, and replacement
(individually exceeding $3,000 in cost, adjusted for inflation) of the Property and
the improvements to be constructed on the Property; second, for augmenting an
operational endowment fund maintained by Lessee to cover potential future
operating shortfalls, to assure long-term continued operation of the Pool for
community use, and, for safety and security purposes; third, for augmenting a
separate account maintained by Lessee to fund additional improvements to the
leased premises as may be agreed upon by Lessee and Lessor; and fourth, for
augmenting a separate account maintained by Lessee to fund improvement or
maintenance or operation of other areas of Hoyt Park, outside of the leased
Property, as may be agreed upon by Lessee and Lessor. Payments and
disbursements from the principal of the separate endowment funds shall require
joint approval of the Lessor and Lessee; payments and disbursements from
interest or earnings on the principal do not require Lessor’s approval. Lessor’s
approval of disbursements from the principal shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed, and Lessor’s failure to respond within 10 business days to a written or
electronic request by Lessee for approval of a payment or disbursement from
these endowment funds shall constitute approval, if, in such written or electronic
request, Lessee shall have notified Lessor of the time constraint. Lessor may
request and Lessee shall not unreasonably refuse a reasonable extension of time
within which to respond if needed. It is understood that circumstances requiring
an emergency purchase and payment from the endowment funds could arise,
under which an unreasonable delay in responding to Lessee’s request for approval
could be considerably shorter than 10 business days, and Lessee will so advise
Lessor. Revenues from Lessee’s operation of this Project shall not be disbursed by
Lessee for the third or fourth categories (to fund additional improvements to the
leased premises and/or for improvement or maintenance or operation of other
areas of Hoyt Park) without joint approval of the Lessor and Lessee. Lessee shall
provide Lessee with annual reports prepared by independent auditors relating to
Endowment Fund3 activities, including funds received, monies spent, and any
long-term obligations.
6. USE OF PREMISES.

In what proportion are the various endowment funds to be maintained, i.e. do each get an equal
portion of the funding, or are adjustments to be made according to need?
3 This term is capitalized, meaning it has been defined. This is a house keeping issue. Should
Endowment Fund be capitalized throughout the document?

(a) Use of Premises. The Parties agree that Lessee accepts the premises
subject to all existing easements and/or restrictions on the premises and
surrounding area, and Lessee shall obtain any and all approvals necessary for
its use as contemplated. The Lessor does not represent that the premises are
suitable to Lessee’s proposed use. The County Lessor is not responsible for
any required approvals, zoning changes, building permits or other required
authorizations from regulatory agencies, without limitation. Lessee enters into
this Lease with this knowledge and understanding. Lessee shall use the
Premises consistent with its Primary missionFunction, to construct, endow,
maintain and operate an aquatic pool and related facilities at Hoyt Park, including
a concessions stand, and similar facilities to support the Pool’s overall operation

written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, Lessee
may use the Premises for related ancillary functions such as offices, meeting
space, gift shop, food service, restrooms, performance spaces, and other lawful
purposes not inconsistent with the Primary Function and consistent with the
purpose of increasing public access to the Premises and the surrounding Park.
Any proposed change of use or deviation from Lessee’s Primary Function will
require Milwaukee County Board and County Executive approval. The grounds
shall be developed and landscaped in a manner that will enhance public access to
and enjoyment of the adjacent areas of Hoyt Park and promote park and open
space uses. Approval in writing must be obtained from the Department of Parks,
Recreation and Culture for any naming privileges sought in relation to the pool,
pool components, coffee shop, casual restaurant or related facilities, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except that the names of
individuals or family names or the names of foundations do not require such
approval. Lessor’s failure to respond within 5 10 business days to a written or
electronic request by Lessee for approval of a naming privilege shall constitute
approval, if, in such written or electronic request, Lessee shall have notified
Lessor of the time constraint. Lessor may request and Lessee shall not
unreasonably refuse a reasonable extension of time within which to respond if
needed.
(b) Public Access and Use of Property. Lessee understands that the
premises exterior to the buildings and Pool area is a public park and is to remain
open and accessible to the public. The entire site surrounding the Property shall
remain open and available to the public on a daily basis. Lessee may utilize the
areas surrounding the building(s) subject to the then current policies; procedures,
conditions and fees established by the Department Of Parks, Recreation &
Culture for permits, rentals and/or special event permits. Lessee understands
that it will have to obtain any parking permits required by the City of Wauwatosa.

subject to the requirements and restrictions in Milwaukee County General
Ordinances Sections 47.02 and 47.16, and to all other rules, regulations, policies,

personal property or other taxes due and owing with respect to any
improvements made to, installed or located upon its Premises. If, during the
term of the Lease, any special assessment is levied against the Property, then
Lessor and Lessee shall be responsible for payments of such special
assessment which becomes due and owing during the term of the Lease in

desirable in the conduct of Lessee’s Primary Function and/or in the
construction, maintenance and operation of an aquatic pool and community
meeting facility and related facilities at Hoyt Park ; provided, however, that
Lessee shall first submit the conceptual plans and specifications for such
improvements to the Milwaukee County Board and the Milwaukee County
Executive for Lessor's approval. Thereafter, but prior to the start of any
construction activities, Lessee will submit any, every and all detailed
construction plans and specifications, and any revisions thereto, to the
Director of the Department Of Parks, Recreation & Culture, or to the
Architecture and Engineering Division of the Milwaukee County Department Of
Transportation And Public Works, at Lessor’s option, and to the extent
required, to the Milwaukee County Public Art Committee, together with the
name of Lessee's proposed contractor(s), for review and approval, which
approval shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld. Lessor’s failure to
respond within 15 business days to a written or electronic request by Lessee for
approval of construction plans, or within 10 days regarding revisions, shall
constitute approval, if, in such written or electronic request, Lessee shall have
notified Lessor of the time constraint. Lessor may request and Lessee shall not
unreasonably refuse a reasonable extension of time within which to respond if
needed. Lessor’s Architecture and Engineering Division personnel shall be
included in all planning meetings. Lessee shall reimburse Lessor for the cost of
a Milwaukee County Project Manager during construction phases of the
facilities, in an amount not to exceed $1025,000.00. It is expressly understood
that the Director of the Department Of Parks, Recreation & Culture, or the
Architecture and Engineering Division, cannot and will not approve any

revisions that, in their opinion, are not consistent with Lessee’s Primary
Function and/or not consistent with the conceptual design, plans and
specifications approved by the Milwaukee County Board and the Milwaukee
County Executive. It is understood by the parties that Lessee anticipates that
its improvements to the Property may proceed in stages, with the Pool and
immediately related facilities being financed, submitted to the Director for
approval, and constructed first, and with the coffee shop/casual restaurant in
the Bathhouse to be financed, submitted to the Director for approval, and
constructed at a later date, dependent on the timing of Lessee’s fundraising. All
the provisions and requirements of this paragraph 13 and its subparts shall
apply with equal force and effect to any later construction of the proposed
coffee shop/casual restaurant.
(a) Conditions for Approval Shall Include, but not be limited to provision
that: (1) Lessee shall obtain, prior to commencing any alterations, additions
and improvements, all necessary permits and licenses from the appropriate
governmental authorities; and (2) Lessee shall commence construction of said
improvements described in the approved plans and specifications as soon as
reasonably practicable following Lessor's approval and shall have a period of
eighteen (18) months or other period of time mutually agreed upon by Lessee
and Lessor, thereafter to complete the tenant improvements contemplated
hereby (subject to extension by reason of force majeure). A separate schedule
for later construction of the proposed coffee shop/casual restaurant in the
Bathhouse shall be agreed upon by Lessor and Lessee upon submission by
Lessee and approval by the Director of Lessee’s plans for those improvements,
along with Lessee’s demonstration of its ability to finance those additional
improvements.
(b) the grounds shall be developed and landscaped in a manner that will
enhance public access to and enjoyment of the adjacent areas of Hoyt Park and
promote open space uses. All of said work shall be completed in a first-class
manner and consistent with the standards established for other work in the
Property. Lessor shall have the right to inspect the work at reasonable times
provided it does not interfere with Lessee's construction of such alterations and
tenant improvements. Any and all alterations, additions and additional
improvements shall be made in compliance with all statutes, laws, ordinances,
rules and regulations of any governmental authority having jurisdiction of the
Premises, Lessee shall also indemnify and hold Lessor harmless from and
against all statutory liens or claims or liens of any contractor, subcontractor,
laborer or any other party which may arise in connection with any alternation,
addition or improvement or Property to the Premises. Any structures,
alterations, additions or Leasehold improvements installed on the Premises by
Lessee, as well as such furnishings, fixtures, equipment and supplies
associated with the Premises that are necessary for the continued operation of
the Premise, shall become the property of the Lessor upon the expiration or

termination of the Lease. In no event shall Lessee make any alterations or
additions to the Property without the prior written consent of Lessor, which
consent shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld. Routine instances of
maintenance, painting, repair and like-kind replacement of materials needing
repair or replacement do not constitute alterations or additions requiring such
approval, providing they do not individually exceed $3,000 in cost. This cost
threshold shall be adjusted annually for inflation, using the United States
Consumer Price Index, Midwest area, all items less shelter.
14. IMPROVEMENTS; TRADE FIXTURES

Lessee shall, upon termination of the lease, become the property of Lessor.

personal property installed in or located on the Premises Upon expiration or
the termination of the Lease, including but not limited to any statuary,
sculptures, works of art, paintings or murals, shall be removed by Lessee, with
Lessee repairing any damage to the Premises resulting from such removal,
unless Lessor and Lessee agree otherwise. as a result of Lessee’s election or
default, Lessor shall thereby acquire, free and clear, title to Premises including
all permanent alterations, modifications, additions and improvements to the
Premises, as well as all pool equipment and supplies, all concession
equipment and supplies and all other equipment and supplies necessary for
the continued operation of the Premises.
15. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. Lessee may not assign the Lease and its
right, title and interest hereunder, nor sublet the Premises, nor any portions of the
Property, whether devoted to coffee shop/concession stand or similar use to
vendors/concessionaires, or otherwise, without Lessor’s express written consent,
which consent shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld.
16. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION. If, during the term of the Lease, including
any time after which Lessee may have given notice to terminate the Lease, the entire
Premises or such portion thereof as shall render the remaining portion thereof
unsuitable for the continued conduct of Lessee's activities therein, shall be damaged or
destroyed more that 85% by fire or other casualty, Lessee shall have the right, for a
period of forty-five (45) days thereafter, by giving written notice to Lessor, to terminate
the Lease, in which event: (a) Lessor shall be entitled to retain all insurance proceeds
payable by reason of and with respect to damage or destruction to the Property and
improvements constructed by Lessor on the Premises; and (b). Lessee shall be entitled

destruction to the improvements owned or constructed by Lessee on the Premises,
and all insurance proceeds relating to Lessee's futures, equipment, and other
personal property. If Lessee does not elect to terminate the Lease or if the damage
or destruction to the Premises does not render the remaining portion thereof
unsuitable for the continued conduct of Lessee's activities thereon, then the Lease
shall continue in full force and effect, and Lessee shall, in accordance with the
provisions set forth in Paragraphs 10 and 13 hereof, promptly commence and pursue
diligently to completion whatever repairs to the Premises are necessary to restore the
Premises to the condition the same were in prior to such damage or destruction and
Lessee shall be entitled to all insurance proceeds relating to the casualty. All such
repairs shall be performed promptly and in a good and workmanlike manner in
accordance with all statutes, laws, ordinances, rules and regulations of any
governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Premises. Commencing on the
date of such damage or destruction and continuing during the period in which Lessee
is repairing and restoring the Premises pursuant to this Paragraph, the rental payable
by Lessee shall abate in proportion to the floor area of that Premises of which Lessee is
deprived for the period in which Lessee is deprived of such area.

taken by any public or quasi-public authority (which Milwaukee County hereby agrees
not to do) under its power of condemnation or eminent domain (or is sold under
threat thereof), the Lease shall terminate as of the date possession shall be taken by
the acquiring authority. If any part of the Premises shall be taken as to render the
remainder thereof unsuitable for the continued conduct of Lessee's activities thereon,

remaining portion unsuitable for the continued conduct of Lessee's activities thereon,
Lessor shall, to the extent possible, promptly restore the remaining portion of the
Premises to the condition the same were in immediately prior to such taking, and the
Lease shall continue in full force and effect. Lessor shall use such portion of the
Lessor's proceeds by reason of such taking necessary to repair and restore the
Premises as herein provided. During the period in which Lessor is repairing and
restoring the Premises pursuant to this Paragraph, the rental payable by Lessee shall
abate in proportion to the area of the Premises of which Lessee is deprived for the
period in which Lessee is deprived of such area.

Premises. In determining the respective investments of Lessor and Lessee in the
Premises, Lessee shall receive a credit for the value of Lessee's trade fixtures and
improvements to the Premises, taken by any condemning authority, which credit
shall take into account Lessee's proportionate share of the improvements, if any, for
which Lessor had received rental compensation. In the event that a single entire
award is made on account of the condemnation, Lessee and Lessor will be entitled to
such proportion of the award as may be fair and reasonable. Any valuation shall
also take into account Lessee's option rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing
contained herein shall be construed to preclude Lessee from prosecuting any claim
directly against the condemning authority in such condemnation proceedings for loss
of business, and/or depreciation to, damage to and/or cost of removal of, and/or for
the value of stock and/or Lessee's trade fixtures, furniture, equipment and other
improvements made to the Premises, and any other property belonging to Lessee.
18. INDEMNITY. Lessee shall indemnify and save Lessor harmless from all
losses and damage to any person or property resulting from the willful or negligent act
or omission of Lessee, its employees, agents, representatives or licensees, or resulting
from the failure of Lessee to perform or observe any of the terms, covenants and
conditions of this lease to be performed or observed by Lessee. Lessor shall indemnify
and save Lessee harmless from all losses and damage to any person or property
resulting from the willful and negligent act or omission, of Lessor, its employees,
agents, representatives or licensees, or resulting from the failure of Lessor to perform
or observe any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this lease to be performed or
observed by the Lessor; provided, however, that Lessor is notified within ten (10) days
of any event which might give rise to a claim of indemnification and that Lessor shall
have the right to defend any claim or action arising hereunder. The foregoing.
indemnities shall not be construed to limit or adversely affect the ability of Lessor or
Lessee to avail itself of the benefits of the insurance coverages set forth in this lease.
19. WARRANTY OF TITLE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, ETC. Lessor hereby
warrants that it has title to the Premises in fee simple, free of all liens, charges
and encumbrances, and that it has full right and authority to enter into this
Lease. Lessor covenants and agrees that, so long as Lessee shall duly and
punctually perform and observe all of its obligations under the Lease, Lessee
shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises without any
hindrance or molestation from Lessor or any other party.
20. DEFAULT REMEDIES

sums required hereunder and such failure to pay continues for thirty (30) days
after written notice thereof to Lessee; or, (ii) default be made in the
performance or observance by Lessee of any other terms, covenants or
conditions herein contained and such default shall continue for forty-five (45)
days after written notice thereof to Lessee (or if such default is not of a type
that can reasonably be corrected within forty-five (45) days as determined

by Lessor, and Lessee fails to commence promptly and in good faith to proceed
with due diligence to correct such default), then in any of the above-described
events, Lessor may elect to terminate the Lease and declare the term of the
Lease ended, to re-enter the Premises or any part thereof with judicial process
and to expel and remove Lessee or any person or persons occupying the same
and again to repossess and enjoy the Premises. Lessor shall also have the
right, at its option, in the event its written notice of default is not cured by
Lessee within the time provided in this Lease, to cure any default by Lessee
and recover from Lessee the costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in curing
such default. In the event of termination of this Lease as a result of Lessee’s
default, Lessor shall thereby acquire free and clear title to Premises including
all improvements, modifications, and additions, Endowment Fund reserves, all
pool equipment and supplies, and all all concession equipment and supplies
and all other equipment and supplies necessary for the continued operation of

c. Remedies Not Exclusive. Any right or remedy conferred on Lessor or Lessee
under the Lease shall not be deemed to be exclusive of any other right or remedy
which might otherwise be available hereunder or at law or in equity. The rights and
remedies hereunder shall be cumulative and may be exercised and enforced
concurrently and whenever and as often as occasion therefore arises.

b. Default by Lessor. In the event of default by Lessor in the performance or
observance of any of the covenants or conditions herein contained and which shall
continue for forty-five (45) days after written notice thereof to Lessor (or if such
default is not of a type that can reasonably be corrected within forty-five (45) days,
then if Lessee fails to commence promptly and in good faith to proceed with due
diligence to correct such default), then in any of the above described events, Lessee
shall have the right at its option to immediately terminate the Lease, to cure any
default by Lessor and deduct the costs and expenses incurred by Lessee in curing
such default from the rental and any other amounts thereafter accruing to Lessor, or
to offset the amount of damages incurred as a consequence of any claim described
above from the rental and any other amount thereafter accruing to Lessor. All
amounts expended by Lessee in curing Lessor's defaults or as a consequence of any
claim shall be paid by Lessor upon demand by Lessee. In the event of any alleged
default hereunder by either Lessor or Lessee, the parties shall endeavor, in good
faith, to utilize an alternative dispute resolution mechanism, which utilizes retired
judicial officials prior to the commencement of any litigation.

d. No Waivers of Rights. The failure of Lessor or Lessee to insist upon strict
performance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions herein contained shall not
be deemed a waiver of any of its rights or remedies and shall not be deemed a waiver of
any subsequent breach or default in any of said terms, covenants and conditions.

Park which that connect the parking lot adjacent to the Premises to the

notice to Lessee, be entitled to enter upon the Premises at reasonable times
during normal business hours for the purpose of examining and inspecting the
condition thereof, and exercising any right or power reserved to Lessor under

reasonable efforts to achieve those goals. Milwaukee County's Community
Business Development office shall approve the DBE goals established by Lessee
and/or its contractors and will also make a determination if contractors are
using reasonable good faith efforts to meet the DBE goals. The efforts employed
by the contractor should be those that one could reasonably expect a
contractor to take if the contractor were actively and aggressively trying to
obtain DBE participation sufficient to meet the DBE contract goal. Mere pro
forma efforts are not good faith efforts to meet the DBE contract goals. (49CFR
§26.53 and Appendix A to 49CFR Part 26 provide guidance regarding GFE).

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
INTEROFFICE COMMUNICATION

DATE:

June 6, 2007

TO:

Supervisor Richard D. Nyklewicz, Jr., Chairman, Finance and Audit Committee

FROM:

Rob Henken, Director, Department of Administrative Services

SUBJECT:

CORRECTIVE ACTIONS FOR DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE
SERVICES – DIVISION OF ECONOMIC AND COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT

Issue
In a report issued March 15, 2007, the Directors of the Department of Administrative Services
(DAS) and the DAS – Economic and Community Development Division (ECD) notified the
County Executive and County Board of an estimated $2.5 million year-end deficit in ECD for
2006. Subsequent to that report, and a follow-up report by the Director of Audits and County
Board Fiscal and Budget Analyst, DAS was directed to prepare a report detailing corrective
actions that would be undertaken to address ECD fiscal problems. This report responds to
that directive.
Background
ECD serves as the administrator and coordinator for various housing and community
development programs funded by the Federal Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD). Division programs include: Community Development Block Grants,
low-income home repair assistance and rent assistance. The Division also includes a Real
Estate Section to facilitate County-owned land sales, and to assist departments in the sale or
acquisition of property.
In March 2007, the DAS – Fiscal Affairs Division and ECD completed a review of ECD’s
2006 year-end position, and reported a projected deficit of approximately $2.5 million. This
included a projected deficit of $3,082,775 in the Community Development program areas,
partially offset by a $547,000 surplus in the Economic Development Section. The total
projected 2006 deficit estimatefigure subsequently was reduced to $2,349,654 due to
additional carryover adjustments. As discussed below, the estimated revenue shortfall for
2007 is approximately $1.3 million due primarily to the overstatement of reimbursebale
administrative cost and the corresponding lack of federal revenue to support these costs. The
$1.3 million shortfall is offset by
In its March 15 report, DAS notified the Finance and Audit Committee of its plan to retain the
accounting firm of Hope and Orendorff, S.C. to assist DAS-Fiscal and ECD staff in
performing a final reconciliation of 2006 expenditures and revenues, to assess the current
state of the Division’s fiscal affairs, and to immediately identify and implement improved
accounting standards, policies and procedures. The decision to pursue outside accounting
expertise was based on the immediate need for a full-time, experienced accountant who could
analyze and identify existing problems and establish a proper accounting framework within

CArcher_Email3013119

ECD Corrective Actions

the Division to prevent similar problems in the future. Hoppe and Orendorff was selected in
light of its considerable experience with governmental accounting and its outstanding work in
performing a similar mission for the Department on Aging Care Management Organization
after fiscal problems surfaced in that department in 2004.
In addition, DAS requested that the Department of Audit be engaged to analyze and report on
the causes of the 2006 ECD deficit. At its March 29, 2007 meeting, the Committee on
Finance and Audit approved this request and modified it to include the County Board Fiscal
and Budget Analyst in the analysis.
On May 1, 2007, the Director of Audits and County Board Fiscal and Budget Analyst
submitted their report to the Committee on Finance and Audit. The report contained six
recommendations that were specific to ECD, as well as a general recommendation calling for
an enhancement of the County’s Central Accounting unit, including the possible creation of a
Deputy Controller position. At its May 17 meeting, the County Board approved those
recommendations.
DAS Response/Corrective Actions
The Department of Administrative Services supports each of the recommendations contained
in the Audit/County Board staff report. Indeed, those recommendations emanated in part
from the constructive dialogue that took place between Audit, County Board, ECD and DAS
staff in the immediate aftermath of the disclosure of ECD’s 2006 deficit. Specific responses
to each of the six specific recommendations are provided below, followed by a response to the
general recommendation regarding the Central Accounting Unit and discussion of additional
corrective actions being implemented and considered by DAS.
Response to Audit/County Board Staff Recommendations on ECD
1) Establish a high level accounting position within the Division.
DAS has submitted – under separate cover – a report recommending abolishment of a Fiscal
and Management Analyst in ECD and the creation of an Accountant 4 position in its place.
DAS has acknowledged for several months the need to create additional high level accounting
capacity in ECD to properly manage the complicated Federal funding streams contained in its
budget. The retention of an outside accounting firm – Hoppe and Orendorff, S.C. – was cited
as a critical but temporary approach to address this need. DAS plans to continue the
engagement of Hoppe and Orendorff until such time as the new Accountant 4 position is filled
and the new accountant is properly trained.
In addition, DAS has requested creation of an additional Fiscal and Management Analyst
position in Fiscal Affairs that will be filled on a part-time basis. The individual who has been
hired identified for this position possesses several years of high-level government budgeting
experience. While she will not specifically be handling ECD budget responsibilities, she will

CArcher_Email3013120

ECD Corrective Actions
Page 3

6/06/2007

add needed capacity to DAS-Fiscal Affairs, and her presence will provide the existing DAS
analyst who has been assigned to ECD additional time to focus on those duties.
2) Budget the Division at the “low org level (by program or by revenue source)” to
isolate each program’s revenues, expenses and levy support.
During early attempts to understand ECD’s 2006 fiscal situation, it was evident to DAS that
the Division’s current budget structure functions ineffectively as a tool for fiscal monitoring
and reporting by program area. Another key problem underlying the budget structure is that
no ECD program section submits a budget request for which the section is held accountable.
The result is an agency budget that lacks both fiscal transparency and accountability for fiscal
and program management.
To address this issue, DAS, in conjunction with Division personnel, will reconstruct ECD’s
2008 budget so that the overall budget is derived more directly from expected sources and
uses of funds by program area. Formal budget requests by program area will be required as
an integral part of this process. This work will be completed in a way that clearly identifies
projected revenues and administrative costs details budget targets by program section,
allowing for improved fiscal management and monitoring for the individual programs and the
Division overall.
As indicated by the Audit report dated May 1, 2007, this requires that the Division budget at
the “low org level” in order to effectively isolate each program’s revenue, expenses, and levy
support. Previous fiscal staff within ECD division had initiated an attempt to construct a
detailed budget by program area. Unfortunately, this work was not completed due to staff
turnover. This work will be completed this summer in time for inclusion in the County
Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget.
3) Develop procedures to link accounting, budgeting and ongoing fiscal monitoring
including the identification of appropriate “red flags” to provide early warnings of
potential deficits.
In addition to the process and structural budget improvements described above, another
challenge is the creation of fiscal monitoring tools that aid in the ongoing financial
reconciliation between ECD program managers, ECD fiscal staff and Central Accounting.
DAS’ procurement of Hoppe & Orendorf to provide temporary high-level accounting
assistance was initiated, in part, to address this issue. Identified in the Hoppe & Orendorf
scope of work is the requirement to include a comprehensive analysis of ECD financial
controls, monitoring, and reporting systems. To this end, Hoppe & Orendorf work activity
will minimally include:
a) An assessment of accounting practices and spending controls;

CArcher_Email3013121

ECD Corrective Actions
Page 4

6/06/2007

b) The creation of a program reporting structure to include basic financial indicators by
program to include: year-to-date revenues by major source, revenue performance
relative to budget, actual year–to-date expenditures by major category, expenditure
performance relative to budget, and account balances;
c) Assessment of other necessary reporting types, content, accuracy, and protocols
concerning the scope and frequency of these reports.
4) Proceed with plans to conduct internal administrative allocations on a quarterly basis
rather than at year-end.
This item is considered by DAS and ECD as an important first step toward improving ECD
financial procedures. Eligibility requirements for Federal reimbursement necessitate
reasonable and effective administrative cost allocation procedures. To better monitor this
important revenue source, DAS and ECD will refine financial procedures to include a
scheduled allocation of the indirect administrative costs (e.g. quarterly or monthly) associated
with HUD programs, followed by a timely Federal submission for reimbursement purposes.
The broader problem from which this issue stems concerns the need for more detailed fiscal
monitoring of various HUD-related revenue streams (both direct program revenues and
indirect administrative cost reimbursement revenuesadministration). Since a significant
portion of HUD revenue is handled on an expenditure-reimbursement basis, it is important to
develop procedures that monitor program activity levels for the purpose of improved revenue
management for both direct program and administrative dollars. The development and
implementation of such procedures will be performed in connection with the Hoppe &
Orendorff engagement.

5) Attempt to limit the number of years that revenues and expenses are carried over to
subsequent years. The two-year limit on CDBG is a step in the right direction.
While the year-end carryover correction in 2006 largely prevents risk of a negative carryover
impact for 2007, allowing the accumulation of carryover dollars in future years modestly
increases the odds of adverse budget impacts in those years. Steps are currently being taken
to develop an agreement between the Intergovernmental Cooperation Council and block grant
receiving communities to establish a two-year limit for unspent grant dollars. Under the
proposed agreement, dollars left unspent by municipal grant recipients will be returned to the
County. This proposal has so far been well received by the members of the ICC.
Though it is expected this type of agreement will partly mitigate budget risks, additional steps
have been discussed and will be further reviewed. One alternative approach is to move
unspent grant dollars to a balance sheet account. This would affectively eliminate any need

CArcher_Email3013122

for a carryover. I want to talk about this. This provides less transparency and I am not sure it
is the way to go.

ECD Corrective Actions

6) Reassess the 2007 Adopted Budget, in particular the administrative expense charges,
and provide a status report.
A detailed analysis of ECD’s 2007 budget indicates Federal reimbursement for administrative
expenditures to be the Division’s largest problem for the current fiscal year (has this not
always been the case?.
Because Generally, ECD’s 2007 budget assumes federal
reimbursement for administrative costs that are either not eligible for reimbursement or in
amounts in excess of the allowable federal reimbursement caps..was constructed with the
same faulty assumptions regarding administrative reimbursements as its 2006 budget, DAS
projects a significant budget variance for this area. This is the main contributor to a projected
deficit of approximately $1million for ECD in 2007.
Specifically, approximately $1 million of administrative costs related to the Real Estate
Section were assumed to be reimbursable by HUD. In reality, administrative costs for Real
Estate are unrelated to the HUD programs and are ineligible for administrative
reimbursement. Administrative costs related to the Real Estate Section should more
appropriately be offset by land sale or lease revenues. DAS will make this adjustment in the
2008 budget.
In addition, each of the HUD-related programs has caps on the amount of administrative
charges that are reimbursable. Actual administrative costs for these HUD-related programs
are projected to exceed these caps by approximately $300,000 in 2007, leaving an additional
revenue shortfall. For 2008, tThe Division will need to adjust its administrative costs to to
bring them in line with what is allowed by federal regulations.reflect the reimbursement levels
available. These adjustments also will be made as part of the 2008 budget.
The above two items result in a 2007 revenue deficit of $1.3 million. The Finally, it is
projected that the combined $1.3 million shortfall in administrative reimbursement revenues
is projected to be will be partially offset by a $300,000 revenue surplus in the Real Estate
Section, leaving ECD a total projected shortfall of $1 million in 2007for the year.
Because this projected shortfall is attributable largely to errors that were made in the
construction of ECD’s budget, it is not possible to implement mid-year corrective actions to
eliminate the shortfall. Instead, DAS will make necessary corrections in the 2008 Budget.
ECD’s 2007 projected deficit is included in June 5th first-quarter estimates submitted to the
Finance and Audit Committee for the June cycle. The projections included in that report will
continue to be monitored and updated to determine if county-wide corrective actions will be
required in 2007. DAS’ report – under separate cover – detailing the County’s 2007 fiscal
status and will be addressed as part of DAS’ overall effort to eliminate a potential countywide
deficit in 2007. The Division’s 2008 budget will require adjustments to ensure projected
administrative cost reimbursement revenue is within the amounts allowed.

Response to General Recommendation Regarding Central Accounting Unit
DAS also agrees with the recommendation to create a new position of Deputy Controller
within DAS-Fiscal Affairs, which again emanated from discussions between the Department
of Audit and DAS. DAS is currently evaluating the appropriate classification and pay range
for the position and developing a position description. A report will be submitted in the July
County Board cycle recommending creation of this position.
Creation of this position is viewed as the first step in an effort to promote greater oversight
and communication between Central Accounting and departmental accounting/fiscal
managers. It is envisioned that the Deputy Controller will relieve the Controller of some of
his broad range of responsibilities, which include not only serving as the Chief Financial
Officer of a $1.3 billion enterprise, but also tasks such as preparation of fiscal notes for labor
agreements, monitoring of employee health care expenditures, preparation of detailed fiscal
information for lawsuits in which the County is engaged, managing all payroll and central
accounting staff, etc. This will allow one or both of these positions to spend additional time
monitoring and advising on accounting issues that surface in County departments. Additional
recommendations to strengthen this oversight and coordination of departmental accounting
functions will be included in the 2008 Recommended Budget.
Two additional actions have been undertaken to add oversight capacity to Central Accounting.
First, DAS is recruiting for the fiscal manager position in the new Employee Benefits
Division, which will remove significant workload from the Controller. It is anticipated that
this position will be filled by late June. Also, in light of the fact that the Deputy Controller
position likely will not be filled until the fall, DAS has retained a Certified Public Accountant
with significant public sector accounting experience to assist the Controller during the
summer months.
Other Corrective Actions
As was noted in its March 15 report, DAS is concerned not only about the lack of sufficient
fiscal resources in ECD, but also about whether sufficient administrative capacity exists to
coordinate activities among the distinct programmatic functions in the Housing and
Community Development area (CDBG, HOME/Home Repair, Housing Choice Voucher), and
to develop and maintain appropriate linkages between those functions and fiscal staff.
In order to address this issue in the short-term, the Housing and Community Development
Coordinator who currently oversees the HOME and Home Repair programs will be elevated
to provide administrative oversight over all three Housing and Community Development
program areas. In addition, the Assistant Housing and Development Program Coordinator –
who is currently housed in ECD Administration – will pick up duties in all three program
areas, and will be charged with coordinating appropriate communication and coordination
between program and fiscal staff, and ensuring that new fiscal policies and procedures are

implemented properly at the program level. Consulting assistance also has been retained to
provide additional short-term administrative and fiscal oversight over these programs.
In order to permanently address this issue, DAS has begun analyzing the possibility of
separating some or all of the Housing and Community Development functions from the Real
Estate Section. Doing so would isolate the HUD-funded functions performed by the Division
from the real estate functions, which would provide policymakers with a better understanding
of the true cost of administering the HUD-funded functions. It also could help ensure that the
critical and complex fiscal and administrative demands of both sets of activities are
appropriately addressed.
It should be noted that the County Executive’s 2007 Recommended Budget called for a study
by the Department of Health and Human Services, DAS, the Department of Audit and County
Board staff “on consolidating all Milwaukee County housing programs into a separate
Housing Division under DHHS.” The County Board deleted this provision from the Budget.
In light of the issues that have arisen in recent months, DAS has decided to conduct an
analysis on its own of potential options for separating housing and/or community
development functions from the real estate function. Depending on its findings, a potential
approach for doing so may be included in the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended
Budget.
Recommendation

I have attached a spreadsheet showing the CEX's salary issues for 2007 and
2008. I'm currently projecting a $44,000 deficit for 2007 and have included
options for avoid that deficit by holding Jim and/or Rod's positions vacant and
the number of pay periods necessary. I also just noted that they are $125,830
from their 2008 target with full funding of staff for next year. I hope you
get this before tomorrow's meeting. Thanks, Molly

hit target or do we have we adjusted or added back? What did they do last year?

It is my understanding the CEX will submit a budget necessary to fully-fund his
staff in 2008 which will exceed the target. I suspect the Board will do the
same thing. I would not count on the CEX returning any of his salary in 2008.
Our focus right now is to get them through 2007. Please work with Villa and Ed
to coordinate the timing of filling vacancies. Thanks.

Last year they put in a large v&T number to get down which is why they have to
hold those positions vacant this year in order not to deficit. In some prior
years, he has drawn money from other areas of the CEX office or even DAS. I
can get him to his target by putting in a lumpsum of 112,363 which is an
increase of $1,691 over this years but if he plans on filling Rods and Jims
positions eventually that will be a problem. Will anyone be leaving
temporarily to work on the campaign for the first quarter which is what
happened 4 years ago? Also, has the CEX committed to the amount he will return
during his next term? We have been budgeting $60,000 for that but I wasn't
sure he was going to do it again.   Thanks, Molly

Each year I try to go with my son to boy scout camp. The camp this year is on
July 9 - July 13th. I know this is a busy time here, and Finance Committee is
on July 19th, but I am trying to do anything I can to get days off to go with
him to camp.
Can we talk about this?

Re: Payroll Manager Position

See how they both do on interviews. You were going to check and see what the
temp fee would be. Assuming there is no county policy prohibiting such a thing
and we have enough money to pay it, I will leave it up to you. I am glad you
are making some good progress. I know it has been difficult.

        Payroll Manager Position





Cindy
To update you on the payroll manager position. We have done a phone interview
with two candidates and a third individual who we noticed had the abilities but
had not applied yet. We found her through a temp agency. One candidate we do
not think has the qualifications we want. The second person we want to bring
in for a formal interview, but he is a little weak in experience. The third
person has good qualifications, but comes to us through a temp agency.
I want to bring in the temp candidate and the other individual for a formal
interview.
It my feeling that the best candidate is the temp person. I believe we should
initially hire her through the temp agency and see how she works out. I would
have to pay a fee to the agency if I decided to hire her.
Is our department willing to pay a fee to the temp agency if we hire her? If
we do not want to pay the fee, than I need to look at the other candidate.

THIS IS A MESSAGE FROM MILWAUKEE COUNTY'S EXTERNAL AUDITORS
Scott,
The following are the questions related to our discussion with the County
Executive this afternoon. If you have any additional questions or concerns,
let me know. Thanks.
1) Has the County performed any new evaluations of the risks of fraud within
the past year? If so, what specific areas were evaluated?
Possible Answers: I am not aware of any new fraud risk assessments that the
County has performed this year. The County continues to have an audit fraud
hotline, that is investigated by the Department of Audit. In addition, we try
to keep a separation of duties between purchasing (Procurement), processing of
invoices (Accounts Payable) and payment (Treasurer's Office).
2) What is your role in overseeing the County's fraud risk assessment and
monitoring process?
I am responsible for hiring the Director of the Department of Administrative
Services. The County Board must approve this position, based on my
recommendation. This position is responsible for maintaining adequate
accounting and support to prevent fraud or other risk. The Department of Audit
reports to the County Board, to further provide risk assessment and audit fraud
monitoring.
3) How does the County communicate to employees the importance of ethical
behavior and appropriate business practices?
This would be the responsibility of the Director of the Department of
Administrative Services and the Department of Audit. I know that they prepare
administrative procedures to help ensure that departments follow policies,
which are intended to prevent fraud. In addition, our systems are set up with
controls to prevent fraud. You would have to ask them for more specific
methods that they use.
4) Are you aware of any non-compliance with laws and regulations?
your own answer.

5) Are you aware of any fraud or suspicions of fraud affecting the County?

Your own Answer.

6) How would you describe the County's and/or management's values and ethical
standards?
Your own answer.

It is my understanding the CEX will submit a budget necessary to fully-fund his
staff in 2008 which will exceed the target. I suspect the Board will do the
same thing. I would not count on the CEX returning any of his salary in 2008.
Our focus right now is to get them through 2007. Please work with Villa and Ed
to coordinate the timing of filling vacancies. Thanks.

Last year they put in a large v&T number to get down which is why they have to
hold those positions vacant this year in order not to deficit. In some prior
years, he has drawn money from other areas of the CEX office or even DAS. I
can get him to his target by putting in a lumpsum of 112,363 which is an
increase of $1,691 over this years but if he plans on filling Rods and Jims
positions eventually that will be a problem. Will anyone be leaving
temporarily to work on the campaign for the first quarter which is what
happened 4 years ago? Also, has the CEX committed to the amount he will return
during his next term? We have been budgeting $60,000 for that but I wasn't
sure he was going to do it again.   Thanks, Molly

I think they will be ok this year since I think they intend to hold positions
vacant for some time. It is next year I am worried about. Does CEX usually
hit target or do we have we adjusted or added back? What did they do last year?

I have attached a spreadsheet showing the CEX's salary issues for 2007 and
2008. I'm currently projecting a $44,000 deficit for 2007 and have included
options for avoid that deficit by holding Jim and/or Rod's positions vacant and
the number of pay periods necessary. I also just noted that they are $125,830
from their 2008 target with full funding of staff for next year. I hope you
get this before tomorrow's meeting. Thanks, Molly

Wendy Hauser from the Greater Milwaukee Committee called and wanted to know if
I was going to provide them with written budget projections. You recall she
called a few months ago and I put her off and you told me the next time she
called, to have her call your office. Apparently the CEX is going to present
his presentation on the 13th for that group. I think she is looking for
another Reality Tour update but most of what I did for the rating agencies is
already in the CEX's presentation.   I would think that would suffice but you
may want to give her a call.
Let me know if you need anything further from me or if I should call her
back.
PS -- I have not shared the detail of the 5-year projections with anyone since
it is constantly changing.

        Quarterly County Support Payment to MPM






I already spoke with Steve Abbey about the payment intercept issue. He thinks
if the County can schedule an electronic transfer to an MPM account the first
business day of each quarter (amount $875,594) versus the current check cutting
method, MPM and the banks can work out an arrangement for making the debt
service payments. Would there be an issue for the County in doing that?

Bill,
I have had phone conversations today with both Mark Fucinato and Steve Abbey at
Chase. Following your and Cindy's conversations with them last week (Thursday

projections this time last year
Tuesday, June 12, 2007 1:31:38 PM

Yesterday we discussed our projected deficit for 2007 and the fact that we also
projected a deficit in 2006 only to end the year with a $6.9 million surplus.
I recall if the press bought up our 2007 circumstance you wanted to refer back
to 2006. For whatever reason DAS did not do fiscal projections for the 1st and
2nd quarter of 2006 so I cannot tell you what we were projecting this same time
last year. However, the third quarter report for 2006 did project a $1.5
million defcit.
As we mentioned there are a number of things that make the 2007 budget very
fluid (land sales, health care experience, the state budget, etc.).
Let me know if you need anything else.

funding options.xls
Paid vs Society sheet.xls

I have asked the Zoo to come prepared with a list of items that will have to be
done if the Socieity does not contribute more. This will mean closing
exhibits, etc. In addition, the documents they sent show the historic parking
revenues from the Socieity, but I have also asked for the historical cash
contributions for each of the same years. What will not be reflected will be
in-kind contributions.
In essence, if the Society agrees to the surcharge and to increased parking as
indicated that will offest a projected hole of approx. $911,000 by $637,700.
The funding options at the bottom of their sheet suggest options for dealing
with the remaining $275,000.
I would like to remind you we have not analyzed their projected deficit in the
context of their cost to continue (i.e., we are taking the Zoo's word that they
face a hole of $911,000).

Per the numbers, it is clear that there is a real shift from zoo paid
admissions to Zoo Pass admissions. Is there a way to put a dollar amount on
this shift?

George,
I received a call this afternoon (Tuesday June 12, 2007) from Janice Kayser who
is affiliated with Wauwatosa Now (formerly Wauwatosa News Times).
Ms. Kayser is writing a story on the condition of the Menomenee River Parkway
and the Underwood Parkway (roadways).
She is interested in the 2007 budgeted allocation (dollar amount and
percentage) for transportation. In addition, she would like to know the amount
(and percentage) set aside for repair and paving of County roads.
After consultation with Cynthia Archer, I was advised to forward this request
to you for follow up on the matter.
The reporter indicated she was facing a deadline but did not specify the
expiration of that deadline.
Her contact information is as follows:

When the captial budgets come in, I will want a summary list of what is being
requested with one or two line description and dollar amount. No analysis,
just a list with brief description. I will want this as part of the tie out
process (i.e. before July 4th vacations). Thanks

A/E staff -- 2008 Budget request
Wednesday, June 13, 2007 12:04:51 PM

George and Sue,
As you are aware there was a proposal in the Parks budget to either create or
transfer three positions (Engineer, Architect and Project Management) from A&E
to the Parks Department. During budget meetings the conclusion was that this
would be considered by the Exec. if there was agreement among the two of you on
the transfer. New positions would not be created without deleting them in
A&E. There does not appear to be agreement and there remains concerns in DAS
about duplicating services already being provided by A&E. As a result this
should not be included in budget requests submitted on June 25. If this
requires further discussions, we can have those over the summer.
Also, when we met we discussed some edits in the narratives for each of your
department's in order to clarify intent. I am asking that you submit to me for
review your budget narratives in advance of the submission date so I can
quickly read through them before you submit your request.
I appreciate your assistance.

Press contact
Wednesday, June 13, 2007 2:49:08 PM

I got a call from Sean Ryan at the Daily reporter. His starter question was
"is it true the County is going fund the transit deficit out of the contingency
fund?"
I talked to him about the paper we did on first quarter projections and
emailed him a copy. I explained that yes, I had factored in a projected
deficit for transit. My explanation did not focus on transit as much as it
focused on the year end 2006 projected surplus ($6.9 million) and the projected
2007 deficit of $3.4 million that did indeed assume the use of the contingency
fund. I explained the plan to reserve $2 million in case we need it in 2007
and I emphasized it is early in the year the make county-wide conclusions and
that it is not unlike 2006 when we projected deficits early, yet ended with a
surplus. The only thing I said that was remotely policy related is that in
that the fiscal problems of transit would definitely need to be addressed as
part of the 2008 budget process and that for 2007, short of policy changes
advanced by the Board/Executive I had to assume the deficit as part of the 1st
quarter 2007 projections.
I concluded that I thought at this point, our projected deficit is
"manageable" but that we would keep a close eye on it the event we need to take
further corrective actions. I told him the Finance Committee will receive
another update in July. An article will run in tomorrow's paper. He will
bring me a copy when he comes to Finance tomorrow.
Let me know if you have questions or concerns. PS -- Walker wanted to get the
story out about the $6.9 million 2006 year-end surplus. I assume you guys are
on top of that?

Zoo levy target
Wednesday, June 13, 2007 4:34:04 PM

The Zoo levy target decreased by $260,850 bringing their 2008 levy target to
$5,847,721. The reduction was due entirely to the allocation of our increased
2008 debt service. The increase was evenly prorated to all departments. Had
we allocated this cost increase based on capital spending, the Zoo and other
capital intensive departments would have been worse off. I provide this to you
as FYI for your communications with Sapp and Davis. Other departments received
real reductions on top of the debt allocation. In my mind, the Zoo is holding
their own at this point in terms of levy support.
I told Vera at the Zoo that you would be communicating on this topic to Sapp
and Davis.
Hope this helps.

FLSA
Wednesday, June 13, 2007 5:26:40 PM

I know that we have talked about this quit a bit. I would like to move ahead
and request HR to re-examine the FLSA status of the fiscal analysts. We have
new hires, I have had to pay out significant amounts of money for unused
overtime and the amount of staff absences is having a detrimental impact on
office performance. Most importantly, I believe their status as FLSA nonexempt
is in error based on the FLSA guidelines. Now is a good time to take care of
this in conjunction with new hires, the office reorg and start of the budget
process. Your thoughts?

This looks good to me, Scott. Schultze will, of course, use this as an excuse
to call you up for a comment about ECD's projected deficit for 2007, but that
is unavoidable anyway.

Milwaukee County Finished 2006 with a $6.9 million Surplus
County Executive Walker Credits Good Fiscal Management by Cabinet
MILWAUKEE - A report prepared by the Administration of Milwaukee County Executive
Scott Walker shows that the county finished 2006 with a $6.9 million surplus. The County
Board’s Finance and Audit Committee reviewed the report today.
“This surplus is a credit to our fiscal management and to the work of our cabinet members to
control spending in their budgets,” said Walker, “This is further evidence that the county’s fiscal
situation is headed in the right direction.”
The report shows that Milwaukee County finished the year with a $6,901,148 million surplus.
The surplus in 2005 was $4,644,000.
“This will help handle challenges in 2007 and to prepare for the 2008 county budget,” said
Walker. “This is also another reason why outside sources are giving us good ratings for our fiscal
management.”
Earlier this year, the national bond rating agency XXXX gave Milwaukee County its highest
rating for the fiscal management of the county.

THURSDAY, June 14, 2007, 11:54 a.m.
By Steve Schultze
Scott Walker: More red ink uncovered
Another $1.75 million deficit in Milwaukee County's economic development
division surfaced today, coming on the heels of a recently disclosed $2.5
million shortfall in the same unit.
And early projections show the county heading for an overall $3.4 million
deficit by the end of this year, the County Board's Finance and Audit Committee
was told.
It wasn't all bad news - County Executive Scott Walker also announced that the
county wound up with a nearly $7 million surplus for 2006 based on a final
balancing of the books. Some $2 million of that will be set aside to help ease
any '07 deficit, but under county accounting procedures the rest is set aside
for the 2008 budget.
Walker said he was confident this year's potential budget shortfall could be
managed by year's end. It's not unusual for potential shortfalls to emerge that
can be solved by the end of the year, he said.

CArcher_Email3013183

But the news of the additional shortfall in the county's Community and Economic
Development Division prompted tough criticism by county supervisors and
repeated assurances by county staffers that they had not hidden the extent of
the problem.
Both the 2006 and 2007 shortfalls trace to accounting errors in which the
county was banking on more money from the federal government for housing
programs than ultimately materialized, said Rob Henken, the county's director
of administrative services. The problems weren't discovered until late last
year, but the latest piece of the '07 shortfall was discovered at 11 p.m.
Wednesday, said Scott Manske, the county controller.
Henken said it appeared that the county wrongly assumed the federal Department
of Housing and Urban Development would pay for all the county's administrative
costs for operating low-income housing programs. But as county benefit costs
ballooned, federal reimbursement levels stayed even or were reduced, he said.
That created a gap that grew over several years before it was discovered, he
said.
The complexity of multiple housing programs with differing federal
reimbursement rates has made it difficult to precisely determine how the county
deficits piled up, said Cindy Archer, the county budget director.
"We are having a heckuva time peeling back that onion, and I'm sorry to have to
tell you that," Archer told supervisors.

Good afternoon, Cynthia.
Here’s the story that ran in today’s issue of The Daily Reporter about the
budget report. I’m not sure if the links to the PDFs will work through e-mail,
but they’re links to the reports that you gave me and that I received from the
County Board. Please call me if you want to discuss anything in the story,
especially if I got something wrong, that way we can at least fix the online
version. We’ll have another story in tomorrow’s issue focusing on the situation
at the Community and ED Division from today’s meeting.
Cheers,

Report projects transit system deficit
Other county department projections in red too
Sean Ryan , [email protected]
Posted June 14, 2007
With Milwaukee County bus passenger revenues falling $1.9 million below budget
projections, officials are looking to fill the anticipated deficit without
cutting services or increasing fees.
A June 5 report (1.3MB PDF) based on the Milwaukee County Transit System’s
first-quarter performance projects an overall 2007 deficit of $1.8 million. It
is still early in the year, so those figures could turn around from increased
ridership for things like State Fair, noted George Torres, Milwaukee County
director of public works and transit. But if they don’t, Plan A is to pull
money from the county’s $3.1 million contingency fund or $6.9 million surplus
(431KB PDF) from the 2006 budget to fill the gap, he said.
“Absent of the wherewithal to have the funds to do that, then it becomes a
policy decision, and we have to sit down and look at these cuts,” Torres said.
The cuts outlined by transit system staff included 14 bus routes that could be
reduced for an annual ridership loss of 675,656 people. Staff said another
$420,000 could be raised in 2007 if cash bus fares increased by a quarter to
$2, and half-fares increased to $1, starting Aug. 1.
The transit system is one of nine departments facing a deficit after the
first-quarter budget report (769KB PDF) covering operations up to May 2007. The
largest deficit is in the Department of Health and Human Services, which faces
a potential $2.5 million gap due to lower than budgeted receipts from the
state-run Youth Aide program.
At ‘tipping point’
Even after spending its $3.1 million in contingency funds, the county could
face a $3.5 million deficit at the end of the year. Its budget directors are
recommending that $2 million from the 2006 surplus be reserved in case the
projections come true and the county faces a deficit at the end of the year.
County law requires that two-thirds of the County Board must vote to approve
the fund transfer.
“I’ve been telling departments that we’re right at the tipping point,” said
Milwaukee County Budget Director Cynthia Archer. “At this point, I am not
recommending any corrective action because I think this is still manageable.”
The county generally uses surplus from previous years to beef up future budget;
the 2007 budget includes $4.6 million carried over from 2005. If $2 million of
the 2006 surplus is dedicated to 2007’s debt, that’ll become a factor in
drawing up the 2008 budget, Archer said.
Archer noted that the county projected a $1.5 million deficit in the second
quarter of 2006 that turned out to be wrong, and said there’s a lot of time
left for things to turn around.
The County Board’s Committee on Finance and Audit was scheduled to consider the
first-quarter budget numbers during its Thursday meeting.

This is fine as long as it is within budget and consistent with County

Cynthia & Chad,
Here are the Budget 2008 Forms that I created by Program for the budget
build-up process. The financial transactions have been allocated to each
program by activity code first. Then for all blank activity codes, I allocated
to programs using the lower organization code where a blank activity code
existed.
Please call me if you have any questions.
Thanks,

        BHD's Revised 2008 Budget Cuts





Corey,
The following is a list of items we discussed earlier this morning regarding
BHD's 2008 Budget cuts.
·       Board approved newly created BHD positions in 2007:
- Quality Improvement & Risk Coordinator $     97,986
- Clinical Safety/Risk Management Nurse $     93,630
- RN III's (5 positions) $   483,190
- RN II Utilization Specialist $     74,574
- Certified Nursing Assistant Pool (7 positions) $   464,030
               $1,213,410
· Remove from BHD’s list of budget cuts for 2008 the closure of one (1) Acute
Inpatient Unit.
· The following summarizes BHD’s $5.0 million cost to continue for 2008:
- Personal Services cost increase of $3.4 million (Board approved newly created

CArcher_Email3013208

but unfunded positions in 2007 for a cost of $1,213,410; filled two (2)
unfunded House Physician III positions in January 2007 for a cost of $567,864;
2008 SBFS Personal Services expenses increase by $1.6 million, which does not
include the cost for the new position creates in 2007 or the two filled but
unfunded House Physician positions).
- Additional 2008 budget expenditure increases of $1,100,000 (medications
$400,000; utilities $200,000; security and household supplies $500,000).
- Revenue reduction $500,000. Recommend not budgeting the $1.0 million in
revenue that was budgeted for the CCS initiative in 2007. I believe the future
of CCS is too tenuous to budget this revenue at this time. An increase in
other patient revenues of $500,000 will be budgeted to partially offset the
elimination of the CCS revenue.
· If additional expenditure reductions are required, I would suggest we revisit
the discussion we had regarding reducing contracted Targeted Case Management
(TCM) slots by one half (450) for a savings of $1.0 million. This
recommendation is based on the fact that the federal government is seriously
considering eliminating TCM as a Medicaid benefit and also due to the
difficulty of agencies recruiting and retaining case managers, a considerable
number of TCM slots are vacant. It should be noted that these clients would
still receive medication services through outpatient clinics.

Dr. Jensen is going to respond to this. We do continue to contract with other
counties if it is cost effective for us and cost effective the county receiving
the service. For it to be cost effective for us, the revenue received should
at least meet our expenses. It should be noted that our fringe cost has indeed
impacted our competitiveness, but we do still have contracts with some counties.

I just learned that Milwaukee County has stopped performing autopsies for other
counties.
I also learned that the reason this occurred was due to the advice of some
accountants.
Well, accounts are to be told things not allowed to have opinons on matters.
And this is why we now have less income coming into the county.

FLSA status of Fiscal and Management Analysts
Friday, June 15, 2007 1:52:52 PM

I know that we have talked about the above issue several times but I would like
to formally request a review by HR of the nonexempt status of the FMAS within
DAS. I continue to be believe that based on the federal regulations that these
positions may be inaccurately classified as nonexempt therefore making them
entitled to the time and a half provisions of FLSA. I believe the timing of
this request is appropriate given that new staff have recently been hired and I
do not want to perpetuate this practice if they are currently misclassfied. In
addition, we are beginning the 2008 budget in which overtime will become an
issue. It is my understanding that if these positions are indeed determined to
be FLSA-exempt, they would still be entitled to overtime at a straight rate per
County ordinances.
I would very much appreciate your assistance in this matter.
Thanks!

Budget assignments
Friday, June 15, 2007 2:55:48 PM
analyst assignments.pdf

I am very pleased and excited to announce that the Fiscal Affairs section is
now fully-staffed. Attached for your reference is the new assignment sheet.
Vince Masterson and Vanessa Allen joined us last week. Vince most recently
worked for the City of Portage as the Executive Director of the Main Street
Program and holds a Master's degree from UW-Milwaukee in public
administration. Vanessa recently graduated from UW-Madison with a Masters
degee also in public administration. Some of you may recall Vanessa from last
summer when she served as intern in our office. We are happy to have her back.
In addition to the above, I would also like to announce that Molly Pahl has
returned to the Fiscal Affairs section as the Assistant Fiscal and Budget
Administrator. Molly has been with Milwaukee County for about 11 years, 7 of
which was spent in Fiscal Affairs as an analyst. Molly brings with her strong
technical and analytical skills and a wealth of knowledge about Milwaukee
County, department operations and the issues and challenges facing departments.
Finally, beginning next week Davida Amenta will begin as a part-time analyst in
our office under a job-sharing arrangement with Alex Kotze. Davida has
extensive local government experieince in operating and capital budgeting,
personnel, information services and finance and holds a Masters degree from the
University of Cailfornia-Berkeley. She and Alex will jointly serve the
departments listed on the attached.
I understand that a fair number of you have been impacted by the vacancies on
our office. I apprecitate your patience as we moved to get staffed up. I am
confident we are now well prepared to provide you with the budget assistance
you have come to expect. I would also like to thank Karen Jackson, Jim Eggers
and staff in the HR department for their assistance in recruiting and guiding
me through the county HR process in a very timely fashion.

CEX 2008 budget
Friday, June 15, 2007 4:59:12 PM

Molly, I will not be here on Monday. I have not seen the CEX budget, but the
intent was to fully fund their cost to continue and Walker's salary. I assume
you and Alex have worked through it with the CEX office. You may want to have
Rob look it over quickly before it is submitted officially. Under the above
direction they will exceed their cap.
I would not officially submit their budget until the Board's budget is
submitted. I think Rob and Ed will be interested in how much the Board's
budget exceeded their cap. Once, Rob says so, then have CEX submit it.
Lastly, I thought I saw a document that illustrated the levy change for both
the Board and CEX over the last five years. You and Rob and Ed may want to
have this handy in case the press calls about the levy increase in the CEXs
2008 budget. If I recall, the Board's levy has consistently increased while
the CEX's has decreased. So even with a levy increase in 2008, the cumulative
increase by the Board (including for 2008) will far exceed that of CEX.
Anyway, please coordinate with Rob and Ed. Thanks.

Folks - earlier reports by me, to you all, of an inability to meet the 2008 tax
levy target were greatly exaggerated (but not intentionally so).
Alex Kotze stopped by our office earlier this week to talk about budget issues,
and discovered that our 2008 budget presumed 4 employees (which would be nice),
so when we reduced that number by 1 to 3 (our actual number), the tax levy
target was obtainable after all, although not without some strain, and movement
of some of Domingo's salary/fringe dollars, because he will be absent for a
part of 2008 also.
By the way, Alex is able to translate budget/accounting technical mumbo-jumbo
into words that I can understand. Please pass on to her boss to keep her
around. She's good.

Attached are the 2008 Requested Budgets. I have placed hard copies on your
chair. Cindy and Rob may want to make changes, but the narratives reflect the
amounts I emailed to them on June 8. Two of the budgets require numbers from
Scott that require finalization: sales tax revenue (small table at the end of
the budget) and surplus/deficit from prior year (year-end data table). James
informed that we will get numbers for Org 1950 from Scott on Monday.
Therefore, I should be able to complete the sales tax revenue budget on
Monday. I will work with Scott or someone from his staff on Monday to complete
the surplus deficit budget. Hopefully, the year-end numbers are final. Also,
I haven't included the State Shared Revenue Budget because I am waiting for a
call from the State.
Thanks.

DESCRIPTION
On February 18, 1999, the County Board adopted a
resolution (File No. 99-119) authorizing the
execution of an Intergovernmental Cooperation
Agreement between the Forest County Potawatomi
Community and the City and County of Milwaukee.
The agreement specifies that Milwaukee County will
receive an annual payment of 1.5% of the Annual
Class III Net Win at the Potawatomi Bingo Casino, or
$3.24 million, whichever is greater. This annual
payment is based on the Net Win at the Potawatomi
Bingo Casino for each 12-month period, beginning
July 1, 1999. Payment is made to the County on
August 15 of each year for the immediately
preceding 12-month period, beginning August 15,
2000.

BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
•

For 2008, Potawatomi Revenue is budgeted at
$4,875,000, which is based on the monthly
Class III Net Win at the Potawatomi Bingo
Casino.
The amount allocated to various

1937 - 1

In previous budgets, Potawatomi Revenue was
allocated to specific operating budget programs
and capital budget projects. For 2001, operating
budget allocations were included in org. unit
1937 and administratively transferred to the
affected departments during the year. In 2002,
these allocations were budgeted directly in
departments and shown in org. unit 1937 for
presentation purposes. From 2003 to 2005, a
portion of the appropriation was allocated to
operating budget programs and the remainder
was budgeted in org. unit 1937. The allocation
of Potawatomi Revenue to programs and
projects was intended to address the provision
in Resolution File No. 99-119, that “it shall be
the policy of Milwaukee County to use the
payments received from the Potawatomi tribe for
quality of life enhancements and activities that
promote economic growth and job opportunities
for the benefit of all Milwaukee County
residents.”

On April 1, 1991, Milwaukee County retailers began
collecting a 0.5 percent county sales and use tax.
Generally, items, which are currently subject to the
State’s 5.0 percent sales tax, are subject to the
county sales and use tax in counties that have
enacted the tax. Milwaukee County is currently one
of 58 counties in the State of Wisconsin that relies
on the sales tax to fund services formerly financed
by local property taxes. The county sales and use
tax is administered and collected by the Wisconsin
Department of Revenue. The 2007 budget reflects
the 1.75 percent state administrative fee.
Section 22.04, Milwaukee County Ordinances,
previously required that sales tax revenue be used
to pay tax-supported debt service costs. Surplus
revenues not needed for debt service payments
were required to be used to directly finance capital
improvements.
On June 18, 2003, the County Board of Supervisors
approved Resolution File No. 03-263(a)(a), which
modified Section 22.04 of the General Ordinances
so that surplus sales and use tax revenues can be

used to pre-fund employee benefit costs or fund
anticipated or extraordinary annual increases in
such costs or supplement the Appropriation for
Contingencies. The 2003 resolution permitted sales
tax revenues to be used for the above general fund
purposes through calendar year 2007. The 2008
Budget modifies Section 22.04 of the Milwaukee
County Ordinances to continue the use of sales tax
revenues to finance the previously stated general
fund purposes.
The 2008 County Sales Tax amount decreased
$2,822,238 or 4.3% from the prior year. The gross
budgeted amount for 2008 is $64,327,401, which is
$2,226,199 below the 2007 budget. The net budget
amount for 2008, which excludes the $1,228,139
allocation in the Capital Improvement Program, is
$64,327,401.
The reduction in sales tax revenue for 2008 reflects
decreased actual sales tax revenue that the County
has experience over the last four years. A partial
explanation for the decreases in sales tax revenue is
the low growth rate. The growth rate for sales tax

revenue for the years 2003 to 2005 was 2.3 percent.
The growth rate for 2006 was 1.57 percent.
Complicating the low growth rate has been the
difficulties that the State of Wisconsin has had with
its collection system and the various corrections that
have been made to address these issues.
In 2005, the State of Wisconsin, Department of
Revenue contacted counties to notify them of
software glitches detected in the computer program
used to distribute sales and use tax to Wisconsin
counties. There were five categories of software
defects that resulted in the system over or under
distributing sales tax revenues to counties for the
years 2002-2005.
•

•
•
•

Treat sales tax receipts on certain private
party sales (occasional sales) of motor
vehicles;
Calculate fee discounts received when
returns are filed on time and round numbers
on certain sales tax receipts transactions;
Handle adjustments necessary to co correct
tax return errors;
Calculate tax abatements (forgiveness of
liability, penalty and/or interest); and
Transfer negative revenue entries form the
system into checks distributed to counties.

According to the State, Milwaukee County received
an over distribution of sales tax revenue that totaled
approximately $1.8 million that the State will capture
in equal increments over a three year period from
2008 to 2010. Therefore, sales tax revenue for
Milwaukee will be reduced by approximately
$600,000, starting with the 2008 Budget.
The State also informed the County of an under
distribution of approximately $777,000 for private
party sale of motor vehicles. The County received
repayment for the under distribution in December
2005.
For the 2008 budget, projected sales tax collections
exceed debt service costs by $5,397,547. Therefore,
$57,701,715 in net sales tax revenues is earmarked
for debt service costs and $1,228,139 is dedicated
to direct financing of 2008 capital improvements.
Based on the assumptions above, there would be an
estimated uncommitted balance of $5,397,547
budgeted for general county purposes.
A modification to the County Ordinances will be
made for the 2008 to continue the use of surplus
sales and use tax revenues to pre-fund employee
benefit costs or fund anticipated or extraordinary
annual increases in such costs, these excess sales
tax revenues are available to partially offset the

County sales and use tax revenues are dedicated primarily to the payment of general obligation debt service
costs. For budgetary purposes, the County’s pledge to levy ad valorem taxes for the payment of debt service
payments treats sales tax revenues and property tax revenues as fungible (interchangeable).

The County booked $1,186,309 at year-end 2001 to
pay arbitrage penalties for the 1996-2000 bonds.
Sale of Capital Asset (4905)
Federal arbitrage rules for bond proceeds subject to
rebate allow a five-year period from the closing date
of the bonds to calculate rebate liability and require
that the first payment be made at the end of the fiveyear period.

surpluses were deposited in Org. 1945 –
Appropriation for Contingencies in compliance with
the budget directive for 2003 and forward regarding

Revenue from Project Rents (4999)
Milwaukee Kickers Soccer Club
The County issued a total of $3,750,000 in 1994 and

Kickers Soccer Club (MKSC) for the purpose of
purchasing land and developing an indoor/outdoor
sports complex to be located at the Uihlein Soccer
Park at 7101 West Good Hope Road in Milwaukee.
The MKSC agreed to repay the County for debt
service on these bonds.
On July 23, 1998, the County Board of Supervisors
approved Resolution File No. 98-427, which
authorized an amendment of the lease agreement
between the MKSC and Milwaukee County to
restructure the lease payment schedule. The new

payment plan reflects the donation to MKSC of the
Uihlein Soccer Park land and associated costs by
establishing a level payment schedule of $430,000
annually and extending the schedule from 2010 to
2011, beginning in 1998.
In addition, the payment dates were changed from
June and December to August and February,
beginning in 1999. On October 18, 2001, Milwaukee
County issued $49,925,000 in Corporate Purpose
Refunding Bonds to refund a portion of the 1994,
1995 and 1996 bonds. The bonds sold at a
premium, which has been budgeted under the Debt
Service Revenues section. A portion of the refund
savings and premium have been applied to the
outstanding Milwaukee Kickers debt, which has
reduced the lease payment from $430,000 to
$424,000 for 2003 and future years.
The payment amount for 2007 is $424,000.
Marcus Center Renovation
The County issued a total of $5,802,000 in General
Obligation Bonds during 1994 and 1995 for the
purpose of renovating the interior of the Marcus
Center for the Performing Arts. The Marcus Center
is undertaking a private fund-raising effort to repay
the County for bonds issued for this $12.7 million
project. Based on information provided by the
Marcus Center, current pledges are sufficient to
repay bonds issued by Milwaukee County for this
project. The budget amount for 2008 is $453,460.

Intergovernmental Cooperation Council
The County issued $2,500,000 General Obligation
Building Bonds, Series 1997A on July 17, 1997 on
behalf of the Intergovernmental Cooperation Council
(ICC) for the development of an animal control
shelter. The County and ICC have developed a final
agreement as required for the release of the bond
proceeds to the ICC. The ICC will repay the County
for actual debt service costs on this issue.
In 2005, Milwaukee County refunded the debt, which
resulted in savings of $55,643 over the life of the
issue.
The debt service payments reflect the
savings per maturity.

Private Geographic Members (PGMs)
In 2003, Milwaukee County issued general
obligation bonds to finance Project WG008 –
Milwaukee County Grounds Roadway Rehabilitation.
Milwaukee County Ordinance 98.01 states that the
Private Geographic Members (PGM’s) shall share in
the cost of improvements at the County Grounds on
an equitable basis. The PGM’s consist of Milwaukee
County (DHHS – Behavioral Health Division),
Froedtert Hospital, Children’s Hospital, Medical
College of Wisconsin, Curative Rehabilitation and
Blood Center of Southeastern Wisconsin.
The cost allocations for improvements are based on
a cost sharing formula that is determined by the
square footage of building area that the geographic
members bear to the total gross square feet of the
building area of all geographic members combined.
The square footage is evaluated annually and is
expressed as a percentage.
Presently, the
allocation for the County is 17.8 percent and the
combined percentage for the remaining PGM’s is
82.2 percent. Therefore, 82.2 percent of the debt
service costs for the roadway improvements will be
paid by the remaining PGMs. The budgeted amount
for 2008 is $212,881.
State Trust Fund Loan Program
In 2004, Milwaukee County borrowed $539,524 from
the State Trust Fund Loan Program to finance
various equipment items. The County borrowed an
additional $18,627,012 to finance a portion of its
pension contribution variance. The amortization
period is four years for the equipment loan and five
years for the pension loan. Principal and interest
amounts are $3,809,220 and $713,348, respectively,
for 2007. These amounts are included in the
account 8021 and 8022 for the payment of principal
and interest. The total loan payment for 2008 is
$4,522,568.
The County is in the process of
applying for a loan from the State Trust Fund Loan
Program to finance the Milwaukee County Inclusive
Housing Program. It is unknown at this time if the
loan payments for this loan will begin in 2008. The
County is anticipating a response from the State
regarding the final approval of the loan and an
amortization schedule by August of 2007.

Reimbursement for debt service costs for 2008 totals
$220,720.

1993 Levy Rate Cap: Effective August 12, 1993,
Section 59.605, Wisconsin Statutes imposed a
property tax rate limit for Wisconsin counties.
Separate limits were imposed for operating levy
rates and debt service levy rates. Initially, the
baseline for the rate limit was the 1992 actual tax
rate adopted for 1993 budget purposes. The County
cannot exceed these operating levy rate and debt
levy rate limits unless one or more conditions apply,
as described below. The statute establishes specific
penalties for failure to meet the tax rate limit
requirements. Among the penalties for exceeding
the tax rate limits are reductions in State shared
revenues and transportation aids.

excess levy is at least $500, but if the amount
exceeds a political subdivision’s aid payments in the
following year, DOR must reduce local aid payments
in future years until the amount is fully deducted.
Also under the bill, a political subdivision is not
penalized for an excess levy if DOR determines that
the excess is directly caused by DOR assessment
errors or because of an error in preparing or
delivering the tax roll by the taxation district clerk or
county clerk.1

Under the terms of the 1993 levy rate cap, general
obligation debt can be issued only if one of the
following conditions is met: (1) a referendum is held
that approves the debt issuance; (2) the County
Board of Supervisors adopts a resolution that sets
forth its reasonable expectation that the issuance of
the debt will not cause the County to increase the
debt levy rate; (3) the issuance of the debt was
authorized by an initial resolution adopted prior to
the effective date of 1993 Wisconsin Act 16 (August
12, 1993); (4) the debt is issued for certain specified
purposes, including financing regional projects under
Section 67.5(7)(f); (5) the debt is issued to fund or
refund outstanding municipal obligations; or (6) the
County Board of Supervisors adopts an initial
resolution authorizing the issuance of the debt by a
vote of at least three-fourths of the members-elect of
the County Board.
Proposed Change to Levy Limits
Senate Bill 40 reinstates the levy limit for the 2007
and 2008 levies and modifies the calculation of the
limit.
The bill changes the definition of the
evaluation factor to be the greater of either 4 percent
or the percentage change in the political
subdivision’s equalized value due to new
construction, less improvements removed. The bill
also creates several new exceptions to the levy limit,
including levies for certain bridge and culvert
construction and repairs; creating levies related to
jointly provided fire protection services; and county
levies for payments to adjacent counties for library
services.
Under the bill, DOR may not reduce a political
subdivision’s aid payments unless the amount of the

Here is a draft of a letter I want to send to John Sapp and Bert Davis:

Dear John and Bert,
Thank you for joining us to talk about the budget options for the Milwaukee
County Zoo and the role of the Zoological Society of Milwaukee. I appreciate
your leadership with the society in support of the zoo.
As mentioned at our meeting, the staff of the Milwaukee County Zoo faces some
difficult choices to balance their 2008 budget request. Overall, they have a
$911,000 cost to continue for the next budget year.
Since I did not like many of their expenditure reduction ideas, I asked for
some dramatically different options. A couple of the options can be
implemented directly by the zoo staff:
· A $.50 increase in zoo admission provides $331,988.
· An $1 increase in zoo parking provides $249,167 (it also has a $131,806
impact on the society because of parking paid to offset Zoo Pass parking)
In addition, the zoo and budget staffs suggested a $10 surcharge on each Zoo
Pass. That would generate $504,910 in new revenue for the zoo. As we
discussed, the current membership is slightly below the average for similar
zoos across the country.
While this seems to be a very responsible proposal, we are willing to consider
a mixture of various other options to cover the budgetary challenges for the
zoo in 2008.
CArcher_Email3013245

It is also important that one thing is clarified from our meeting. The amount
targeted for tax levy support of the zoo in 2008 is slightly less than the
level in 2007.
The target for next year is $5,847,721 and is entirely due to the allocation of
increase debt service costs in 2008. The increase was evenly prorated to all
departments. Had we allocated this cost increase based on capital spending,
the Zoo and a few other capital-intensive departments would have seen a much
greater reduction. Other departments received real reductions on top of the
debt allocation. In other words, the Zoo is holding their own at this point in
terms of levy support.
Finally, I want to reiterate what was mentioned at our meeting. I love the zoo
and I believe that the public does too. I want to keep our many excellent
exhibits open.
Having said that, I also want to make it clear that our situation is not some
negotiating position, but a real overview of what our financial options are for
2008. Our ongoing challenges (while better than in previous years) will
require dramatic reductions in government spending and aggressive changes in
the collection of revenues. We are not looking for a better deal; we are
looking to keep the zoo running at its current level of excellence.
Once again, thank you for your attention to this very important matter. I will
have staff from the zoo follow up with your staff.
Sincerely,

CArcher_Email3013246

Attached is a rough summary of major items that came in the operating budgets
that were due at noon yesterday. It is only meant to be a "heads up" document
since no analysis has been performed. In the event you get press calls, we
have noted the analyst responsible. In addition, inquiries can be sent to
myself and to Molly Pahl.
Significant items of note: County Board exceeded target by over $377,000; CEX
exceeded target by approx. $159,000. The District Attorney exceeded their
target by $1 million and the Register of Deeds reduced its estimated return to
the general fund by approx. $1.12 million. It should also be noted that the
Child Support budget assumes holding 71.5 positions vacant which could affect
performance revenues.
Again, this is not meant to be shared or distributed. If represents your first
quick pass through the budgets.
The next due date for budget next Monday at noon. This is when the larger
agencies will be submitting their requests.

SIGNIFICANT/CONTROVERSIAL ITEMS

In 2008, the County's federal incentive payment allocation of $3,596,989 is
no longer eligible for the expenditure match rate of 66%. In order to offset
this lost revenue, the CSE has requested the following: 1) unfunding 71.5
FTE positions and 2) creating and increasing several fees (fee revenue
increase of $82,000). The mentioned incentive revenue will be realized
only if CSE maintains the performance established on September 30,
2007. The position reduction could affect performance and ultimately
reduce incentive payments. The department also anticipates $1,573,881
GPR from the State that is eligible for federal match in the amount of
$3,055,178; however, this amount is pending passage by the legislature.
Reinstated .48 of Election Clerk for the additional elections. They included
money for the touch screen voting machines (required), a new fee is added
for requested voter lists dowloaded to a CD.
Two positions are created and three are abolished. They are planning an
aggressive delinquent taxes collection campaign in 2008 therefore they
increased the number of notices by 1,600.
$2,700 is included for the County Clerk to attend the Wisconsin
Constitutional Officers conference and the Wisonsin County Clerk
conference.
$16K is budgeted to remodel the lobby for security, revenue decrease
$898K due to slower home market

Due to loss of grant funding, four positions are abolished. Contractual
services increase by $729,713, $644,747 of which is offset by the new
federal VAWA domestic violence grant. In February 2007, the DA's
general misdemeanor and felony divisions were combined into a general
$1,108,949 crimes division as part of John Chisholm's reorganization initiative.

$2,800,389

Milwaukee County will provide Ozaukee County with autopsy services for
an estimated revenue of $45,000. A pathologist within the department will
provide educational services to the Medical College of Wisconsin for a fee
of $95,000/year. Fees for death certificates increase from $65 to $75 and
$150,535 professional testimony fees increase from $350/hour to $400/hour.

Here is the text of the letter I would like to send to the sociey:
Dear John and Bert,
Thank you for joining us to talk about the budget options for the Milwaukee
County Zoo and the role of the Zoological Society of Milwaukee. I appreciate
your leadership with the society in support of the zoo.
As mentioned at our meeting, the staff of the Milwaukee County Zoo faces some
difficult choices to balance their 2008 budget request. Overall, they have a
$911,000 cost to continue for the next budget year.
Since I did not like many of their expenditure reduction ideas, I asked for
some dramatically different options. A couple of the options can be
implemented directly by the zoo staff:
· A $.50 increase in zoo admission provides $XXX,XXX
· An $1 increase in zoo parking provides $XXX,XXX (it also has a $131,806
impact on the society because of parking paid to offset Zoo Pass parking)

CArcher_Email3013280

In addition, the zoo and budget staffs suggested a $10 surcharge on each Zoo
Pass. That would generate $504,910 in new revenue for the zoo. As we
discussed, the current membership is slightly below the average for similar
zoos across the country.
While this seems to be a very responsible proposal, we are willing to consider
a mixture of various other options to cover the budgetary challenges for the
zoo in 2008.
It is also important that one thing is clarified from our meeting. The amount
targeted for tax levy support of the zoo in 2008 is slightly less than the
level in 2007.
The target for next year is $5,847,721 and is entirely due to the allocation of
increase debt service costs in 2008. The increase was evenly prorated to all
departments. Had we allocated this cost increase based on capital spending,
the Zoo and a few other capital-intensive departments would have seen a much
greater reduction. Other departments received real reductions on top of the
debt allocation. In other words, the Zoo is holding their own at this point in
terms of levy support.
Finally, I want to reiterate what was mentioned at our meeting. I love the zoo
and I believe that the public does too. I want to keep our many excellent
exhibits open.
Having said that, I also want to make it clear that our situation is not some
negotiating position, but a real overview of what our financial options are for
2008. Our ongoing challenges (while better than in previous years) will
require dramatic reductions in government spending and aggressive changes in
the collection of revenues. We are not looking for a better deal; we are
looking to keep the zoo running at its current level of excellence.
Once again, thank you for your attention to this very important matter. I will
have staff from the zoo follow up with your staff.
Sincerely,

Here is a draft of a letter I want to send to John Sapp and Bert Davis:

Dear John and Bert,
Thank you for joining us to talk about the budget options for the Milwaukee
County Zoo and the role of the Zoological Society of Milwaukee. I appreciate
your leadership with the society in support of the zoo.
As mentioned at our meeting, the staff of the Milwaukee County Zoo faces some
difficult choices to balance their 2008 budget request. Overall, they have a
$911,000 cost to continue for the next budget year.
Since I did not like many of their expenditure reduction ideas, I asked for
some dramatically different options. A couple of the options can be
implemented directly by the zoo staff:
· A $.50 increase in zoo admission provides $331,988.
· An $1 increase in zoo parking provides $249,167 (it also has a $131,806
impact on the society because of parking paid to offset Zoo Pass parking)
In addition, the zoo and budget staffs suggested a $10 surcharge on each Zoo
Pass. That would generate $504,910 in new revenue for the zoo. As we
discussed, the current membership is slightly below the average for similar
zoos across the country.

Comments to the Administrator
John L. Doyne Hospital (Milwaukee, Wisconsin)
Provider No. 52-0174
FYE 12/22/1995
PRRB Dec. No. 2007-D32

Dear Ms. Norwalk:
By letter dated June 5, 2007, the Attorney Advisor advised that the Centers for Medicare
& Medicaid Services (“CMS”) Administrator would review the May 10, 2007 decision of the
Provider Reimbursement Review Board (“PRRB” or the “Board”) in the above-referenced
matter (Decision No. 2007-D32). In its decision issued on May 10, 2007, the Board upheld the
disallowance by United Government Services, LLC (“Intermediary”) of post-retirement health
benefit costs claimed by John L. Doyne Hospital (“Provider” or “Doyne Hospital”). Milwaukee
County (the “County”), owner and operator of the Provider, respectfully requests that the
Administrator reverse the decision of the Board. The County, on behalf of the Provider, timely
submits the following comments in support of its request.
I.

Summary of the Provider’s Position

The sole issue presented in this appeal is whether the Intermediary’s disallowance of
Doyne Hospital’s post-retirement health benefit costs paid after the Hospital terminated its
participation in the Medicare program is proper. The Provider maintains that it is entitled to
Medicare reimbursement related to the allowable retiree health benefit costs for employees who
worked at Doyne Hospital while the Hospital participated in the Medicare program. The
Intermediary has stipulated that these costs related to benefits earned by Doyne Hospital
employees through 1995 while providing patient care and other services to Medicare
beneficiaries when the Hospital participated in the Medicare program. Thus, it is undisputed that
the retiree health costs at issue in this case are allowable costs under the Medicare program. The

sole regulation relied on by the Board in its decision, 42 C.F.R. § 413.100(c)(2)(vii), to uphold
the Intermediary’s disallowance does not preclude a provider from seeking Medicare
reimbursement for allowable costs after a provider has terminated its participation in the
Medicare program. The Provider maintains that this regulation cannot be applied to deny
reimbursement to which a provider is otherwise entitled under the Medicare statute based solely
on the fact that the provider has terminated its participation in the Medicare program.
II.

The Board’s Decision Fails to Recognize that the Provider Incurred Reasonable and
Necessary Costs

In its decision, the Board relied solely on the regulation at 42 C.F.R. § 413.100(c)(2)(vii).
(Exhibit P-2.) This regulation recognizes expenses incurred for retiree health benefits as a
reasonable and necessary cost under certain circumstances. 42 C.F.R. § 413.100(c)(2)(vii)(C).
Post-retirement benefit plans are recognized as “deferred compensation” arrangements subject to
the provisions of 42 C.F.R. § 413.100 and applicable program instructions. 42 C.F.R.
§ 413.100(c)(2)(vii)(C). The Medicare rules define “deferred compensation” as “remuneration
currently earned by an employee but which is not received until a subsequent period, usually
after retirement.”
Provider Reimbursement Manual, § 2140.1.
(Exhibit P-3.)
Section 13.100(c)(2)(vii)(A) specifically recognizes that a provider may operate an unfunded
deferred compensation plan and provides that the allowable costs related to the plan are
recognized during the cost reporting period in which actual payments are made. 42 C.F.R.
§ 413.100(c)(2)(vii)(A).
However, the Medicare regulations and program guidance do not specifically address
how a provider will receive Medicare payments for its reasonable and necessary deferred
compensation costs when those payments are made to a participating employee after a provider
terminates from the Medicare program, as was the case with Doyne Hospital. The regulation
relied on by the Board in its decision, 42 C.F.R. § 413.100(c)(2)(vii), does not preclude a
provider from seeking Medicare reimbursement for such costs after a provider has terminated its
Medicare participation in the Medicare program. 1 Thus, this case presents a timing question, not
an issue of allowability. The Provider submits that this regulation cannot be applied to deny
reimbursement to which a provider is entitled under the Medicare statute based solely on the fact
1

At the March 9, 2006 hearing, the Intermediary acknowledged there is nothing in the Medicare rules that
prohibits a provider from operating an unfunded deferred compensation plan and that, as a terminated provider,
there was no means for Doyne Hospital to claim the retiree health costs in the years in which they are paid. Tr. at
301-02. Further, expert testimony presented at the hearing showed that operation of an unfunded deferred
compensation plan for retiree health benefits is entirely consistent with business practices of both governmental and
private entities. This is because non-pension benefits, primarily retiree health and welfare benefits, do not qualify as
“qualified trusts” so that the monies invested in such funds would be non-taxable. Because of the tax treatment of
such non-pension plans, very few governmental or private entities actually fund retiree health benefit plans. Tr. at
244-45.

that the provider terminated its Medicare participation. It is undisputed that the retiree health
benefit costs at issue would have been recognized and allowed by the Intermediary for Medicare
reimbursement purposes when the benefits were actually paid by the County for the retirees of
Doyne Hospital if the Hospital was still participating in the Medicare program. 2 Those retiree
health costs incurred while the Provider, Doyne Hospital, was operating were an allowed cost in
Medicare Cost Reports. The Board’s decision fails to take this account in relying exclusively on
42 C.F.R. § 413.100(c)(2)(vii). We submit that the regulation is inapplicable to Doyne Hospital
as a terminated Medicare provider because it would deny the Hospital payments to which it is
entitled under the Medicare statute.
Application of 42 C.F.R. § 413.100(c)(2)(vii) to the instant case is inconsistent with the
Medicare statute’s overarching requirement that Medicare providers be reimbursed for
reasonable and necessary costs incurred in providing services to Medicare beneficiaries. See
42 U.S.C. § 1395x(v)(1)(A). (Exhibit P-1.) The Medicare statute directs that providers are to be
reimbursed for reasonable and necessary costs and does not allow the Secretary to avoid payment
simply by failing to specify a mechanism for a provider to claim costs after it has terminated its
participation. The courts have held that providers are entitled to reimbursement in equitable
amounts for costs that are related to a provider’s termination from Medicare. See, e.g.,
St. Joseph’s Hospital (San Francisco, Cal.) v. Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association/Blue
Cross of California, PRRB Dec. No. 83-D104R (July 1, 1986), quoting St. Joseph’s Hospital v.
Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association/Blue Cross of California, No. C-83-4041-MHP
(U.S.D.C. N.D. Calif. Sept. 5, 1984) (on remand, the PRRB was ordered to reimburse the
provider’s pension and unemployment insurance costs upon the provider’s termination).
(Exhibit P-17.)
Further, the Board’s decision does not recognize the undisputed fact that the County
actually paid $44,331,623 during the years 1996 through 2002 for retiree health care benefits
related to employees of Doyne Hospital. The County has paid additional amounts for such
benefits in subsequent years and, as necessary, is prepared to update its claim with respect to the
actual payments it has made since 2002. The Board’s decision fails to recognize that the County
has paid benefits to former Doyne Hospital employees based upon their service to Medicare
patients and will continue to make such payments.
The facts in St. Francis Health Services, Inc. v. Schweiker, 514 F. Supp. 607 (D.D.C.
1981) are analogous to the issues in this appeal and provide further support for the Provider’s
position that 42 C.F.R. § 413.100(c)(2)(vii) should not be applied to deny the Provider’s
reasonable and necessary costs. (Exhibit P-9.) In St. Francis, the United States District Court
2

The Intermediary has acknowledged that the “employees who are receiving the benefit in dispute did
provide a valued healthcare service . . . .” Tr. at 40.

for the District of Columbia held that unemployment compensation benefit costs paid by a
hospital to the State of Indiana following the hospital’s termination of participation in the
Medicare program were allowable costs to the hospital under the Medicare program because the
unemployment benefits “were earned by employees when providing services to Medicare
beneficiaries.” St. Francis, 514 F. Supp. at 614. That is the case here as the County has paid
benefits to former Doyne Hospital employees based upon their service to Medicare patients and
will continue to make payments.
We submit that 42 C.F.R. § 413.100(c)(2)(vii) cannot and should not be applied to deny a
provider reasonable and necessary Medicare costs to which it is entitled simply because it no
longer participates in the program. This would unfairly penalize providers who operate
unfunded deferred compensation plans and terminate their Medicare participation.
III.

The Board’s Decision Does Not Take Into Account the Intermediary’s Decision to
Accept the County’s Sick Leave Costs

The Board does not discuss in its decision the fact that the Intermediary allowed the
County’s accrued sick leave costs, which were of the exact same nature as the retiree health
costs. There is no dispute that the Intermediary allowed the County’s claim for earned but
unused sick leave pay in the amount of $641,778 that eligible employees would be entitled to
receive upon retirement. Indeed, the sick leave costs payable at retirement had the same
characteristics as the retiree health costs in that they were: (i) incurred but unfunded, (ii)
represented a liability payment to Doyne Hospital employees that will be paid in the future as
employees retire from the County, and (iii) actuarial assumptions were used in the calculation of
the liability. There is no rational basis for the Intermediary’s inconsistent treatment of these two
similar costs. We submit that the Intermediary’s determination to allow the County’s claim for
earned but unused sick leave pay was consistent with the Medicare statute should be followed
with respect to the post-retirement health benefit costs.
IV.

The Board’s Decision Would Result in a Violation of the Medicare Statute
Prohibition Against Cross-Subsidization

The Board’s decision to uphold the Intermediary’s disallowance results in the costs of the
Medicare program being borne by a source other than Medicare in contravention of the Medicare
statute’s prohibition against cross-subsidization. Specifically, the Medicare statute directs that
the Medicare regulations shall “take into account both direct and indirect costs of providers of
services . . . in order that . . . the necessary costs of efficiently delivering covered services to
individuals covered by the insurance programs established by this title [i.e., the Medicare
program] will not be borne by individuals not so covered, and the costs with respect to
individuals not so covered will not be borne by such insurance program.” 42 U.S.C.
§ 1395x(v)(1)(A)(i). Courts have consistently recognized the Medicare cross-subsidization
prohibition. (See, e.g., St. James Hosp. v. Heckler, 760 F. 2d 1460, 1470 (7th Cir. 1985), cert.

denied, 474 U.S. 902 (1985); Sioux Valley Hospital v. Bowen, 792 F.2d 715, 721 (8th Cir. 1986).)
(Exhibit P-19.)
There is no dispute that the costs at issue arose from Doyne Hospital’s provision of health
care services to Medicare beneficiaries. As such, the statutory prohibition on cross-subsidization
requires that such costs be borne by the Medicare program. If the costs are borne by some other
party, such as the taxpayers of Milwaukee County, then the statutory prohibition is violated. The
Board’s decision upholding the Intermediary’s determination means that the costs at issue in this
case, which clearly arise from the Provider’s provision of health care services to Medicare
beneficiaries, will be borne by the taxpayers of Milwaukee County. This is a direct violation of
the Medicare statute.
V.

The County’s Reimbursement Claim is Supported by a Reasonable and Actuarially
Sound Methodology

The County has amply demonstrated that its updated reimbursement claim for postretirement health benefit costs is supported by a reasonable and actuarially sound methodology.
In its decision, the Board does not acknowledge or discuss the evidence supporting the County’s
claim. This evidence and expert testimony presented at the March 9, 2006 hearing shows that
the County developed a reasonable and actuarially sound methodology to account for the actual
retiree health costs paid for the years 1996 to 2002 and the future retiree health costs for years
2003 through 2044. The specific methodology is explained in detail in the Provider’s
Supplemental Position Paper filed on March 2, 2006 and is further supported by the testimony
presented at the March 9 hearing.
If, however, the Administrator finds fault with the methodology for determining future
benefit costs, the Provider suggests an alternative approach. The Administrator could order the
Intermediary to adjust the Hospital’s terminating cost report to allow only the actual retiree
health benefits paid by the County through the date of the Administrator’s decision in this case.
The County is prepared to update this claim to reflect the actual costs paid for the years 2002 to
the present.
VI.

Conclusion

In sum, the County, on behalf of the Provider, requests that the Administrator reverse the
Board’s decision for the reasons set forth herein. We contend that the Intermediary’s
disallowance of the reasonable and necessary costs for retiree health benefits is improper and the
Administrator should reverse the Board’s decision to recognize the allowability of the retiree
health costs that the County has paid and will continue to pay for employees who worked at
Doyne Hospital during the time it participated in the Medicare program. We also ask that as the
Administrator conducts her review, she consider the arguments and authorities set forth at the in-

        carryovers for 2006 - 2007





At the Finance and Audit Committee, the chair asked for a separate report that
compared 2006 carryovers for housing with 2005 carryovers for housing. I will
be preparing this report in the next two weeks. In my review, I found the
following two issues:
Carryover Report:
The dollar amounts for the housing carryover's for 2006-2007 appear to be
correct. The activity code on the account coding of the housing carryovers is
not correct. I was not aware of this issue earlier. I do not think this is a
big deal, but I will have to mention this in my report. I should have caught
this in my review of the carryover report. Pam Bryant asked me to review the
report to make sure that it was correct, but I did not do it because of a lack
of time. I will report that the activity codes are incorrect, but Pam has
indicated that the correct coding will be posted to the 2007 budget. The
incorrect activity codes were reported because of how the carryovers were
entered by the department into the carryover system. I will have to watch for
this in the future.
HOME Grant Carryover:
I found out on Friday that the Home Grant has an incorrect amount for revenue

CArcher_Email3013298

carryover. This is good news in a strange way, because the revenue carryover
should have been $500,000 more. This will provide a benefit to the 2007
financials for the HOME program at Housing. I will have to mention this in my
report to the Chair. I found the error when I was reviewing carryovers last
week for Housing, plus I received a report from Tracy Balata at Housing which
indicated the same error.

Jerry Heer mentioned to me, in passing, that he will be inviting me to a
meeting that he will be scheduling to discuss the DTPW crosscharges and
overhead rate. This is relating to the issues that surfaced during the
preparation of the 2007 budget such as allowable charges to capital projects
and bond eligibility, revenue recovery rate, etc. I mentioned to Molly that I
would make sure that Chad was involved.

Hi Scott. In looking ahead to the July cycle, I see that the Finance Committee
is expecting an update status report on the employee health budget, "which
should include information on mail order pharmacy". You may want to coordinate
with Dave Arena and/or Mark Lowenthal on this. Reports are supposedly due on
July 3.

I have placed copies of the updated non-departmental narratives on Kat's
counter for your review. I am working on the 9960 General Debt Service Fund
Budget narrative and I gave the power plant revenue and debt issue expense
narratives to Scott. I need him to verify the closing date for the sale of the
power plant and inform me if there is an issue with including revenues in the
debt issue expense budget. The Potawatomi budget was not included in the stack
of narrative changes, but I printed a copy for your review since Kat mentioned
it in her voice mail message. You did include the Medicare Part D, Earnings on
Investment and Miscellaneous budgets in the packet. Since I do not prepare
these request, I assumed they were included by mistake.

I did call John Martin (since he technically reports to me). He claims he did
not read the narratives to which point I instructed him I expect him to read
them. I asked him where on numbers was there $3+ million levy reduction....In
any event he is re-writing the first and 4th dot point on the facilities
narrative. You are still free to call George and Jack, but I approached it
with John as a technical inaccuracy. The rest look fine except transit which
we can't do anything about.
When re-writes come in I will share them with you as well as the Parks which I
expect at anytime.

We should talk about this this morning. The condition of Parks roadways is
going to start to become a big issue with the Board, and while I recognize we
don't have the resources, we at least need to start considering if there are
any options and how to address this in 2008.

        Tosa parkway conditions and resulting crash






Hello Luigi,
Rick Amen writing. I currently reside on the eastern side of Tosa in the 19th
district, Pabst Park Neighborhood, and havre been since 2002. I grew up in West
Allis.
I am hoping to recover damages from the County for my personal losses due to a
bike crash I suffered while riding on the parkway in Tosa, by Hansen gold
course on April 28th, 2006.
I posted a comment on the Wauwatosanow.com message board where a discussion of
the Parkway system's deteriorating condition is ongoing. It was recommended by
more than one individual that I contact you, Supervisor Schmitt, in this
matter. I am hoping that you could offer some guidance as I am perfectly
frustrated with the County's lack of attention to the matter and seemingly
indifferent attitude towards the condition of the Parkway roads and their
responsibility to provide SAFE roadways in the system.
I was incensed to learn the County budget has provided exactly 0% if it's
budget to maintaining the Parkway road system this year. I know that there are
inherent dangers in bicyle riding on public roads. I ride many miles on public
roads yearly. The condition of the Parkway and lack of action to repair it can
only be seen as negligent on part of the County. The Parkway has become a
serious hazard. It has proven to be a hazard to both my health and pocketbook.

>>>>>>>>>This is the comment I posted on the forum today <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Reading that the county has specifically dedicated ZERO dollars of the budget
the parkway maintenance is absoultely an insult to the taxpaying public.
I am steamed at the County. If they take no responsibilty for the conditions of
those public parkways, they should be liable for the result of accidents that
occur there due to their condition. This is a PARKWAY for goodness sake.
I ride bikes. Typically, as road bike riders, we point to hazards on the road
so the riders behind you can avoid them too. When entering the parkways,
especially off of Hansen golf course, we tell each other EVERY MAN FOR HIMSELF
- there are just too many potholes, ruts, cracks and ridges to call them all
out. It's pathetic.

CArcher_Email3013315

I am an avid and experienced road biker who was physically injured in a crash
which was caused by hitting an unrepaired crack in the parkway west of swan
blvd. I was physically hurt and in pain for weeks. Skin is still growing back 6
weeks later and I now have visible scars. I'll spare you the photos. Broken
helmet $140(thanks goodness it did it's job) and damaged bike parts $200. My
very expensive and trustworthy bicycle was also damaged to the point the mfg'r
says i need to replace the frame as it is unfit and now unsafe for use due to
the crash. That'll cost over $1200 for the replacement frame alone.
I am super-frustrated by the County's inaction! It is shameful that I wiped out
due to the conditions there, but I can take the pain, and am healing. BUT, I
feel completely sorry for any unfortunate citizen that thinks it would be a
safe place to ride. It is a threat to cyclist's health. Glad I'm not some older
person who might not be able bounce back as well. That would be a truly
preventable tragedy.
The comment from poster 'swamp gas' is right. Unfortunately, my injuries are
not serious enough to pursue damages through legal channels, due to the costs,
but on principal alone I want to sue the county now.
Would an alderman or mayor with a strong voice have an opinion on allowing this
problem to continue to exist in their city?
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
That was my public comment on the Forum.
I would like to be reimbursed by the County for the cost of parts to replace
the ones broken in the crash. I am hoping that you can help this be resolved in
a timely and effective manner. I would appreciate your feedback.
Ultimately, I'd like the Parkways to become a pleasant and safe place to enjoy
the outdoors and exercise in a great community. Right now, in my humble
opinion, they are shameful hazards.
with my best regards,
Rick Amen

They are not all in yet. One option would be for us to burn them to a CD for
you once they are all in. I expect to get the rest of them late today or
tomorrow AM. Otherwise, you can come over here an flip through binders but I
think the CD would be most effecient. Let me know which way you want to go.

Pursuant to Wisconsin Statutes 19.31-19.39, please consider this an
official open records request for the following information:
The 2008 Requested Budgets submitted by the County Executive's Office,
Milwaukee County Board, The Milwaukee County Circuit Courts and the
Milwaukee County Sheriff's Department.
Either an electronic or print out of the preceding information will be
considered sufficient, sent either via mail or email. Please inform me
if for some reason you believe fulfilling this request would incur a
cost to me in excess of $10.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to
hearing from you soon.

and IMSD to meet on this topic. Thanks.
To the participants. We have to respond to this request however, we are not
required to provide it in a specified format. Without having the benefit of
meeting yet, my main concern is that we are able to redact personally
identifiable privacy information (social security numbers, home addresses,
etc.) and info protected under HIPPA (health insurance info, sick leave, FMLA
leave, etc.). We may also want to provide it in a PDF format. Kat will set

        FLSA status of Fiscal and Management Analysts





I know that we have talked about the above issue several times but I would like
to formally request a review by HR of the nonexempt status of the FMAS within
DAS. I continue to be believe that based on the federal regulations that these
positions may be inaccurately classified as nonexempt therefore making them
entitled to the time and a half provisions of FLSA. I believe the timing of
this request is appropriate given that new staff have recently been hired and I
do not want to perpetuate this practice if they are currently misclassfied. In
addition, we are beginning the 2008 budget in which overtime will become an
issue. It is my understanding that if these positions are indeed determined to
be FLSA-exempt, they would still be entitled to overtime at a straight rate per
County ordinances.
I would very much appreciate your assistance in this matter.
Thanks!

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
INTEROFFICE COMMUNICATION

DATE:

June 27, 2007

TO:

All Department Heads

FROM:

Cynthia Archer, Fiscal and Budget Administrator

SUBJECT:

2008 Requested General Obligation Capital Improvement Projects Exceed Bonding Cap
We have completed our initial review of capital budget requests. The request submitted for
general obligation bond financing total approximately $68.5 million. The debt management
policies for Milwaukee County currently place a ceiling of $30 million on the 2008 General
Obligation bond issue. After accounting for estimated issuance costs of $275,000, the 2008
bonding amount available for all general obligation projects totals $29.7 million. Submitted
requests exceed this cap by over $38 million.
In light of the magnitude of the requests we need to work to bring the sum of the requests more
in line with the 2008 bonding cap. I am seeking your assistance and input in accomplishing
this. With this goal in mind, I am asking each department head to revisit the projects you have
submitted for consideration in 2008 with an eye towards scaling back your requests.
Specifically, I am asking department heads to review the attach listing of projects for your
department and 1) identify those projects that can be delayed for consideration until the 2009
budget process and 2) assign priority rankings to projects that you deem critical for
consideration in 2008. In establishing priorities, please make note of projects that meet one or
more of the of the below criteria.
To facilitate your review, the attached provides a listing of those projects submitted by your
department. Columns have been included for you to input a numerical priority ranging (with
“1” being the highest priority), justification for the ranking and identification of projects that
can be delayed. Be sure to comment on the below criteria as you establish your priorities.
•
•
•
•
•

Capital improvements that address life safety or liability issues
Capital improvements that address code compliance issues
Capital improvements that are fully or primarily offset with non-County financing*
Capital improvements that result in significant cost-avoidance or operational
efficiencies.
Capital improvements that are essential for the continuation of core business functions.

Please return the attached completed document to Catherine Koper no later than July 13th.
In closing, I understand that this will require additional time of you and your staff and that this
may not be an easy exercise. However, we will submit a recommended budget that is within the
established bonding cap and I believe this to be an opportunity for you to have additional input

Re: FLSA status of Fiscal and Management Analysts
Wednesday, June 27, 2007 2:14:00 PM

My request is not related to ECPs, it relates to the fiscal analysts being
classified as covered by FLSA when I believe based on the criteria they should
not be. Fiscal analysts are not ECPs.
When we met a couple months ago, I recall that HR indicated agreement that they
should not be covered by FLSA and that we could change it. At that time, I
chose to leave it alone. However, I have now hired a number of new staff and I
do not want the practice to get further entrenched. I would like to clarify
this now before we get into the heavy overtime use period. With the exception
of possibly one analyst, I do not anticipate much negative fall out from making
this change now. However, if we leave it as is, the new staff will get
accustomed to it and it will be even harder to change next year. Existing staff
that would be affected by this include James, Chad and Dan. I do not expect
resistance from Chad and Dan and I think I can talk my way through it with
James.

Re: FLSA status of Fiscal and Management Analysts

Cindy we have taken no action at this time because it precedes what we must do
in ECP work group. When the direction for those recommendations are sorted
through, then we will be able to address more comprehensively. ECP status and
FLSA status are intertwined. Let us proceed methodically, those questions
will be addressed.

FLSA status of Fiscal and Management Analysts

I know that we have talked about the above issue several times but I would like
to formally request a review by HR of the nonexempt status of the FMAS within
DAS. I continue to be believe that based on the federal regulations that these
positions may be inaccurately classified as nonexempt therefore making them
entitled to the time and a half provisions of FLSA. I believe the timing of
this request is appropriate given that new staff have recently been hired and I
do not want to perpetuate this practice if they are currently misclassfied. In
addition, we are beginning the 2008 budget in which overtime will become an
issue. It is my understanding that if these positions are indeed determined to
be FLSA-exempt, they would still be entitled to overtime at a straight rate per
County ordinances.
I would very much appreciate your assistance in this matter.
Thanks!

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
INTEROFFICE COMMUNICATION

DATE:

June 27, 2007

TO:

All Department Heads

FROM:

Cynthia Archer, Fiscal and Budget Administrator

SUBJECT:

2008 Requested General Obligation Capital Improvement Projects Exceed Bonding Cap
We have completed our initial review of capital budget requests. The request submitted for
general obligation bond financing total approximately $68.5 million. The debt management
policies for Milwaukee County currently place a ceiling of $30 million on the 2008 General
Obligation bond issue. After accounting for estimated issuance costs of $275,000, the 2008
bonding amount available for all general obligation projects totals $29.7 million. Submitted
requests exceed this cap by over $38 million.
In light of the magnitude of the requests we need to work to bring the sum of the requests more
in line with the 2008 bonding cap. I am seeking your assistance and input in accomplishing
this. With this goal in mind, I am asking each department head to revisit the projects you have
submitted for consideration in 2008 with an eye towards scaling back your requests.
Specifically, I am asking department heads to review the attach listing of projects for your
department and 1) identify those projects that can be delayed for consideration until the 2009
budget process and 2) assign priority rankings to projects that you deem critical for
consideration in 2008. In establishing priorities, please make note of projects that meet one or
more of the below criteria.
To facilitate your review, the attached provides a listing of those projects submitted by your
department. Columns have been included for you to input a numerical priority ranging (with
“1” being the highest priority), justification for the ranking and identification of projects that
can be delayed. Be sure to comment on the below criteria as you establish your priorities.
•
•
•
•
•

Capital improvements that address life safety or liability issues
Capital improvements that address code compliance issues
Capital improvements that are fully or primarily offset with non-County financing*
Capital improvements that result in significant cost-avoidance or operational
efficiencies.
Capital improvements that are essential for the continuation of core business functions.

Please return the attached completed document to Catherine Koper no later than July 13th.
In closing, I understand that this will require additional time of you and your staff and that this
may not be an easy exercise. However, we will submit a recommended budget that is within the
established bonding cap and I believe this to be an opportunity for you to have additional input

CArcher_Email3013355

Hello to allJust a brief update on the status of increased funding for transit at the State
level. The 2.5% reinstated by Senator Decker and the extra funding for
Milwaukee and other transit systems in the State put forward by Senator Taylor
will be a big help, if they make it into the final budget. Kelly and Roy have
done a great job and Gary and WURTA are working hard as well. It will still be
an uphill battle from this point. Thanks for all your support on this issue.
Please continue to use your contacts to move these issues forward. We will be
working on this as well. Anita

Good morning Madame Chair;
Please pass this brief memo around to our WURTA members and friends
of transit.
1. Senator Russ Decker was successful in adding the extra .5% to the
already approved 2% annual increase to all systems.
2. Senator Lena Taylor was successful in securing an additional $4
Million to Tier A-1 (Milwaukee) and additional $2 Million to split
proportionately among the remaining tiers    beginning on July 1,
2008. I am including Rod Clark on this message, and he will be able
to tell folks what this would mean to each system in the days ahead.
This increase will apply to the shared ride systems in Tier C as well.
3. Elderly and disabled transportation aids also will receive a 2.5%
increase in each year of the budget cycle. This is welcome news to
the 85.21 program operators.
4. The Governor has proposed a Milwaukee to Madison passenger rail
route and included bonding authority to begin the process. Gwen, you
will love this and of course be able to maintain the "transit
Goddess" title for many years. The Senate caucus modified the
proposal to specify that the bonds may be used for improvements to
establish rail service between Madison and Eau Claire!
5. Senator John Lehman was successful in adding the KRM funding
authorization language (car rental fees). He also added additional
CArcher_Email3013360

language to allow the Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Transit
Authority the ability to operate all aspects of a transit system and
gave them additional bonding authority. I will forward more details
in the days ahead.
I would like to thank everyone for the calls and letters sent to
their legislative representatives. Together we have achieved some
major financial improvements
I would like to suggest a meeting of WURTA during the week of July
9th to go over the situation and discuss some plans for dealing with
the Conference Committee. We would be able to have some print outs
of the effects of all this legislative action.
I will be available by cell today at 608-219-5237. Full Senate
action will start in a few hours.
Thanks.

Cindy,
        This is a fairly complex process, while this amount has been
"earmarked" for Milw. Cnty, the actually amount received is based on the
adopted transit budget. We then submit a grant request at which time the
formula numbers are compiled and calculated. A place holder for this money is
included in the 2007 budget. I'll have staff draft up a quick info sheet
outlining the process and send it to you.
Regards,
George

Did I see in the paper we were also going to get $850,000 more from our
regional transit agreement? If so, when would that occur and have we taken
that into account?

Hello to allJust a brief update on the status of increased funding for transit at the State
level. The 2.5% reinstated by Senator Decker and the extra funding for
Milwaukee and other transit systems in the State put forward by Senator Taylor
will be a big help, if they make it into the final budget. Kelly and Roy have
done a great job and Gary and WURTA are working hard as well. It will still be
an uphill battle from this point. Thanks for all your support on this issue.
Please continue to use your contacts to move these issues forward. We will be
working on this as well. Anita

Good morning Madame Chair;
Please pass this brief memo around to our WURTA members and friends
of transit.
1. Senator Russ Decker was successful in adding the extra .5% to the
already approved 2% annual increase to all systems.
2. Senator Lena Taylor was successful in securing an additional $4
Million to Tier A-1 (Milwaukee) and additional $2 Million to split
proportionately among the remaining tiers    beginning on July 1,
2008. I am including Rod Clark on this message, and he will be able
to tell folks what this would mean to each system in the days ahead.
This increase will apply to the shared ride systems in Tier C as well.
3. Elderly and disabled transportation aids also will receive a 2.5%
increase in each year of the budget cycle. This is welcome news to
the 85.21 program operators.
4. The Governor has proposed a Milwaukee to Madison passenger rail
route and included bonding authority to begin the process. Gwen, you
will love this and of course be able to maintain the "transit
CArcher_Email3013373

Goddess" title for many years. The Senate caucus modified the
proposal to specify that the bonds may be used for improvements to
establish rail service between Madison and Eau Claire!
5. Senator John Lehman was successful in adding the KRM funding
authorization language (car rental fees). He also added additional
language to allow the Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Transit
Authority the ability to operate all aspects of a transit system and
gave them additional bonding authority. I will forward more details
in the days ahead.
I would like to thank everyone for the calls and letters sent to
their legislative representatives. Together we have achieved some
major financial improvements
I would like to suggest a meeting of WURTA during the week of July
9th to go over the situation and discuss some plans for dealing with
the Conference Committee. We would be able to have some print outs
of the effects of all this legislative action.
I will be available by cell today at 608-219-5237. Full Senate
action will start in a few hours.
Thanks.
Gary.

Hi Cindy,
        Attached is a narrative that I've asked Highay staff to put together.
It outlines the process that was used during the merger to reassign the
responsibilities for mowing of medians, and the maintenance and plowing of
Parks roads. I firmly believe it is in everyone's best interest to return
these duties to the pre-merger status. Please let us know if you'd like to sit
and discuss. Also, keep in mind, that Supervisor Devine has also mentioned
that he is interested in moving ahead with a resolution to do so. Please let me
know.
Thanks,
George

Highway & Parks Merger – Maintenance Costs and Revenue Associated with Park
Road Maintenance and CTH Mowing
Expenditure Authority - Personnel
In the 2004 Adopted Budget Eight Park Maintenance Worker II positions were
transferred to Highway with a cost, including Social Security, of $316,480 and an
additional lump sum increase of $338,418, which prohibited Highway from filling any
positions. Highway chose not to fill any of these positions in order to meet the vacancy
and turnover. The Park Maintenance positions could only have been used on County
Parkways and Park Roads. No tax levy was allocated to fill these positions.
Subsequently the 8 Park Maintenance Worker positions were reclassified as 7 Highway
Maintenance Workers but continued to be included in the lump sum adjustment. The 7
Highway Maintenance Worker positions were abolished in 2006, with a corresponding
decrease in the lump sum adjustment. Highway performed the Park road maintenance
with existing Highway staff, which has decreased since 2004.
Expenditure Authority - General
In the March 2004 fund transfer $162,225 of expenditure authority related to Park
Maintenance was transferred to Highway. There was no additional expenditure authority
added to the Highway Maintenance operating budget. No operating or major
maintenance funding was ever included in the Highway Maintenance budget for park
roads due to budget constraints.
Equipment
In the 2004 budget Highway was initially assigned four additional vehicles. Due to the
Fleet reduction in 2005, these vehicles went to auction and were not replaced. After the
Fleet reduction Highway was assigned one vehicle (106-378) to maintain Park roads and
Parkways. Parks received a newer truck from GMIA to maintain Lincoln Memorial
Drive. When maintenance of Lincoln Memorial Drive was transferred from Parks to
Highway, Parks retained the truck.
Revenue
In the 2004 Adopted budget $174,033 of General Transportation Aids (GTA) funding
was transferred to Highway from Parks for Park road maintenance. Since less county
funding has been allocated to County Trunk Highways and Park Roads each year, the
amount of GTA revenue has decreased accordingly. The amount attributable to the
Parkways and Park Roads is as follows.
2004 Amount $174,033
2008 Estimated amount $163,662
There was no additional revenue added to the Highway Maintenance budget.
Parkway Costs
No additional Highway staff was added to the workforce to maintain the County
Parkways. County Parkway cost is completely tax levy. Due to budget constraints, major
maintenance funding for Parkways has been denied in the budget process.
2004 Costs $217,832
2005 Costs $194,179
2006 Costs $220,997

Ms. Wright,
I am writing in reference to the Claims Technician (Title Code 01911) position
located in the Department on Aging. According to our records, this position
was created during the 2007 budget process, and was included and approved as
part of the 2007 Adopted Budget. Unfortunately, due to a technical error, it
was omitted from the list that was sent in November from this office to your
department detailing which positions should have been created, abolished or
unfunded based on the Adopted Budget. This is why this position is not
currently found in your records. However, as this position was included in the
budget database and approved as part of the Adopted Budget, it is our opinion
that this is a clerical issue, rather than a policy question. Therefore, we
believe that since the Board has already approved this position once, the
action does not need to be brought forth to the Finance and Personnel
Committees a second time. Please process this position to reconcile your
records with the Adopted Budget. I apologize for the inconvenience and thank
you in advance for your help. Please contact me with any questions.
Thanks,
Dan

According to Jim Eggers, DHR cannot find and has not seen any documentation
indicating that this position was created in the Adopted Budget. I asked him
if he saw such documentation whether this could be done, or whether he still
felt he needed to go to the Board. He said he could get it done if he had the
documentation. So...Dan needs to show him the evidence that the position was
created and he should be able to work this out.

· Courts came in on target; however, the department has claimed
$2,450,000 in revenue from fines and forfeitures traditionally
received by the Sheriff’s Office.
· The department’s request includes a decrease of $499, 624 in
circuit court support payments from the State; however, this
decrease results from the department recognizing three payments in
2007 rather than the usual two. The department expects the
increased payment level in the 2007-09 State Budget to offset the
reduced payments in 2008. This should be monitored as the 200709 State Budget develops.
· Professional Services contracts increase due to a new Treatment
and Diversion (TAD) contract with the State in the amount of
$228,357.
· The Sheriff will increase the number of bailiffs to the Courts, an
additional 6 Deputy Sheriff’s, positions that are offset by overtime
$0 deduction.
In 2008, the County's federal incentive payment allocation of
$3,596,989 is no longer eligible for the expenditure match rate of
66%. In order to offset this lost revenue, the CSE has requested the
following: 1) unfunding 71.5 FTE positions and 2) creating and
increasing several fees (fee revenue increase of $82,000). The
mentioned incentive revenue will be realized only if CSE maintains
the performance established on September 30, 2007. The position
reductions could affect performance and ultimately reduce incentive
payments. The department also anticipates $1,573,881 GPR from
the State that is eligible for federal match in the amount of
$3,055,178; however, this amount is pending passage by the
legislature.

I talked to Ron Malone and he said Jon was misquoted. He told the reporter
they will be monitioring the situation and if it worsens, they will need to
report a deficit. So breakeven is where Jon would probably be. Thanks, Molly

Re: Updated First Quarter Projection 2007

Two points that we need to discuss tomorrow and utilize to modify the report:
1. HOC -- Priebe is quoted in yesterday's Journal Sentinel that he will be
submitting a deficit report to Finance due to the OT situation. Scott's report
eliminates the earlier projected surplus but cites break-even. Is that based
on a conversation with Priebe, and/or can we get Priebe's real number?
2. DHHS & BHD -- by noon Monday, we should have updated numbers for DHHS and
BHD. The DHHS prior year surplus number is now $3.4 million, and this will be
formally reported this cycle. Their JCI problem has grown to about $3.1
million, but they may have some Personal Services surplus to offset that. So,
it is possible that DHHS' overall situation has improved by $500,000 or more.
I don't know where BHD is at but we'll know tomorrow.

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
Inter-Office Communication

DATE:

July ?, 2007

TO:

Supervisor Lee Holloway, Chairman, Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors

FROM:

Rob Henken, Director, Department of Administrative Services
Corey Hoze, Director, Department of Health and Human Services
Robert Dennik, Director, Division of Economic and Community Development

SUBJECT:

FOLLOW-UP
REPORT
FROM
THE
DIRECTORS
OF
ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES, HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
AND ECONOMIC AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT, REQUESTING
AUTHORIZATION TO NEGOTIATE WITH WHEATON FRANCISCAN
HEALTHCARE FOR THE PURCHASE OR LONG-TERM LEASE OF
THE ST. MICHAEL HOSPITAL FACILITY FOR BEHAVIORAL
HEALTH DIVISION INPATIENT AND NURSING HOME OPERATIONS,
AND TO ISSUE A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS FOR THE PROPERTY
CURRENTLY OCCUPIED BY THE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH DIVISION

Policy Issue
At its meeting on February 1, 2007, the County Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution File
No. 07-71, which authorized the Directors of the Department of Health and Human Services
(DHHS) and the Economic and Community Development Division (ECD) to spend up to
$200,000 to conduct a structural and environmental analysis of the St. Michael Hospital facility,
which was being considered as a potential new location for the County’s Mental Health
Complex. The Resolution also directed the Directors of DHHS and ECD – with the assistance of
other County departments as needed – to conduct an analysis of major maintenance and capital
improvements needed at the Mental Health Complex to allow the Behavioral Health Division
(BHD) to effectively conduct inpatient and long-term care operations at its existing location.
The results of these analyses were to be reported back to the County Board once completed.
This report responds to that directive and recommends moving the St. Michael Hospital initiative
forward by authorizing appropriate County officials to negotiate a lease or sale arrangement for
the St. Michael property and to issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the property currently
occupied by BHD.
Background
Per authorization contained in the 2006 Adopted Budget, DHHS and ECD have been exploring
potential alternative locations for the Behavioral Health Division (BHD) to conduct its inpatient
and nursing home operations. In May 2006, subsequent to an announcement by Wheaton
Franciscan Healthcare (WFH) of plans to discontinue hospital inpatient operations at St. Michael

CArcher_Email3013418

Follow-up Report on Potential Relocation of BHD Inpatient Operations
Page 2

7/10/2007

Hospital, DHHS and ECD initiated discussions with WFH regarding the possible utilization of
that site.
In January 2007, the Directors of DHHS and ECD submitted a detailed report on the status of
their discussions with WFH and the preliminary analysis that had been conducted regarding
potential renovation costs and operations savings associated with a move of BHD to the St.
Michael facility. The report also requested authorization to negotiate a lease or sale agreement
with WFH and to make expenditures in an amount not to exceed $200,000 on additional
engineering and environmental analysis of the St. Michael building and property, additional
architectural analysis to better estimate the cost of necessary building renovations, and outside
legal assistance.
The January report noted that based on the high-level analysis that has been conducted to date, as
well as progress made on broad lease/sale negotiations, the Directors of DHHS and ECD had
concluded that a lease or purchase of the St. Michael property could provide a vastly improved
location for BHD inpatient and long-term care operations and generate significant annual
overhead savings that could be utilized to enhance those operations. It was noted that this action
also held potential to allow the County to consolidate other activities at the St. Michael location,
which could produce fiscal and programmatic benefits for other County departments. However,
the report also stated that a final recommendation to pursue this course of action could not be
made without additional engineering and environmental analysis of the St. Michael building and
additional architectural analysis to better estimate the cost of necessary building renovations. A
copy of that report is attached as Attachment A.
At its February 1, 2007 meeting, the County Board of Supervisors adopted an amended
resolution that did not include the authorization for DHHS and ECD to begin formal lease or sale
negotiations with WFH, but that did authorize the expenditure of up to $200,000 for additional
engineering and environmental analysis of the St. Michael building and property, additional
architectural analysis to better estimate the cost of necessary building renovations to house BHD,
and outside legal assistance. In addition, the Resolution directed DHHS and ECD to conduct an
analysis of major maintenance and capital improvements needed at the Mental Health Complex
to allow BHD to effectively conduct inpatient and long-term care operations, and an analysis of
the feasibility of consolidating BHD operations in part of the existing Complex in order to
reduce overhead costs and allow other parts to be leased or sold to other entities.
Summary of Structural/Environmental Analysis of the St. Michael Building and Property
Pursuant to the direction of the County Board of Supervisors, DHHS retained the Sigma Group
to conduct a property assessment in accordance with ASTM 20118 and Milwaukee County
requirements. The specific scope of the work included the following:


A visual walk-through review of the property, including building interior and exterior, and
the overall site. The following systems and components were observed: structural systems,
building exterior finishes (including roofing), electrical systems, HVAC systems, plumbing

systems, interior finishes, fire protection and detection systems and site materials including
site lighting, drainage and pavement/parking ramps.
An interview with the Facility Manager and maintenance staff to assist in the assessment of
the condition of building materials/systems.
A review of available plans, testing reports, equipment inventories, and other documents as
supplied by the Facility Manager for the purpose of determining types of materials and
systems and collecting general background information.
Prioritizing deficiencies using the County protocol (i.e. 1-5 designation).
Gathering of information from the local Building Inspector and Fire Department relative to
outstanding code deficiencies.
Performance of a general ADA review per the Tier I ADA review listed in ASTM 2081-01.
Determination of budget cost opinions for immediate repair or replacement items for shell
building systems such as roofing, HVAC, paving, structural systems, etc.
Determination of budget cost opinions for replacement of shell building systems within a
period of 20 years.
Bi-weekly meetings with Milwaukee County to discuss project status and findings.
Preparation of a final report including:
 general description of materials and systems
 significant repair or replacement items including budget costs
 information obtained from building inspection/fire department
 spreadsheets with 20 year replacement costs
 photographic documentation.

The Sigma Group submitted a comprehensive report to DHHS on May 29. The report found that
“the overall condition of the facility was good and maintenance has been above average
compared to other similar sized facilities.” The present building is 50 years old, or older in some
portions, with construction taking place in 1955, 1974, 1983, 1984 and 2004. The study focused
on placing a life expectancy on the structure and its systems. The major deficiencies noted were
the cooling tower, chiller and some roof repairs.
The engineers believe improvements in the amount of $6,085,574 will be needed in the first five
years of occupancy. These costs are projected and do not reflect actual bid numbers. The
approximation is based on the estimation of when these systems will fail, and having them
replaced rather than repaired or rebuilt. If the County does pursue purchase of the St. Michael
property, it may wish to negotiate replacement of the most pressing of these items prior to
purchase.
The Sigma Group also was retained to perform a hazardous materials assessment at the St.
Michael complex. Sigma tested 300 samples of the more than 3000 different materials present.
They focused on the two towers and the professional office building, where the bulk of the
renovation would take place if Milwaukee County were to take occupancy. Hazardous materials
are not required to be removed unless they are altered or disturbed. The renovation would
require some abatement and that would be budgeted in the renovation estimate.

CArcher_Email3013420

Follow-up Report on Potential Relocation of BHD Inpatient Operations
Page 4

7/10/2007

Through the testing process, Sigma has been able to rule out the need for $3,169,369 worth of
potential abatement costs (i.e. the testing determined that potentially hazardous materials were
not hazardous or would not have to be removed). The Sigma sampling did not cover all
potentially hazardous materials, but assuming that all future material tested is found to be
hazardous, there is a potential abatement cost of $922,259. It is believed that this number will be
significantly reduced during additional testing. The City of Milwaukee requires more than 3,000
samples tested on a project of this size. The additional samples come at a cost of $105,000 and
were not budgeted at our level of due diligence. However, the extent of testing performed by the
Sigma Group for the purpose of purchasing the facility is well within the standards used for
property acquisition.
Summary of Structural/Environmental Analysis of the Existing Mental Health Complex
The County contracted with VFA, Inc. to perform a life cycle facilities condition assessment for
the Mental Health Complex. VFA, in general, found the facility to be in reasonable condition for
a 30-year structure. VFA identified $7,275,386 of deferred maintenance requirements for the
Mental Health Complex using a Facility Condition Index (FCI) calculation. DHHS Operations
staff analyzed the VFA findings and adjusted those findings to adhere to the five-year
repair/replacement methodology utilized by Sigma. That analysis yielded a conclusion that
$8,875,728 in repairs or replacements should be conducted at the Mental Health Complex within
the next five years. A summary of that analysis is attached as Attachment B.
In addition to evaluating the capital improvements needs of the Mental Health Complex, per
Resolution File No. 07-71, DAS and DHHS asked Department of Transportation and Public
Works Architects, Engineers and Environment Services (DTPW-AE & ES) staff to evaluate the
potential to consolidate existing BHD programs and staff into certain areas of the existing
Complex while rendering the remaining areas available for lease or sale. Workload constraints
prevented AE &ES from performing a comprehensive analysis of this issue, but staff did
undertake a conceptual analysis and prepared a memorandum that is attached as Attachment C.
Key findings from that analysis are as follows:
o It would be possible for BHD staff to relocate its facilities and services totally within the
Mental Health Complex (MHC) building, leavings significant parts of that building plus the
existing Day Hospital Building (DH) available for other uses.
o A conceptual estimated cost of $10,520,000 @ $117.08/sq ft would cover the employee
relocation/remodel construction work and the movement of employee spaces. This would
relocate BHD staff in a configuration that provides the same level of service to patients
occupying the same or less square footage per employee but in a much more consolidated
configuration adjacent to patient space.
o A scenario could be considered under which the County would attempt to market the excess
space within the DH and MHC “as is” with minimal cost to Milwaukee County beyond
maintaining the existing building infrastructure. If the County could not successfully do so

CArcher_Email3013421

Follow-up Report on Potential Relocation of BHD Inpatient Operations
Page 5

7/10/2007

and instead needed to perform the demolition to provide a shell space ready for build-out and
perform the build-out required by a tenant, then the cost for the re-configuration of this
excess space would vary depending on what function and service the tenant provides and
what existing installations, if any, are to remain. A conceptual estimated cost to the County
of $30,944,000 at $100.03/sq ft would cover the construction work required to provide
tenant space classified as general office space only with medical office fire protection.
General office space would be the least expensive build-out. Cost for high-end space buildout such as hospital space could be as high as $62,000,000 at $200.00/sq ft or more.
o The County also could perform only the demolition to provide a shell space ready for buildout. Under such a scenario, build-out construction would be performed by the tenant. A
conceptual estimated cost to the County of $3,000,000 at $9.70/sq ft would cover the
demolition work required to provide a shell space ready for build-out. Due to the flexibility
of design and construction methods and means available to the private sector, DTPW
assumes the cost for the build-out performed by the tenant would be significantly less than if
performed by the County.
o Another scenario could include use of excess space in MHC using one of the above scenarios
and respective costs and the demolition of the DH and sale of the DH property, since the DH
building would be totally vacant.
The DTPW analysis concludes that “the economic viability of any of the above scenarios in this
initiative depends on many factors but the most significant would be the potential of finding a
tenant willing to expend the resources to develop this excess space and pay subsequent lease
rates that provide sufficient revenues to offset County expenditures.”
Additional Architectural Analysis of Potential St. Michael Renovation
DAS and DHHS also utilized the past several months to conduct additional planning for a
potential move of BHD functions into the St. Michael facility, as well as additional architectural
analysis in order to refine potential renovation costs. This planning and analysis included
research and visitation to other inpatient mental health facilities in Southeastern Wisconsin, as
well as extensive meetings and discussions with BHD clinical staff regarding creation of an
optimal patient care environment.
This planning and analysis concluded that if BHD were to move all existing inpatient beds to the
St. Michael complex (96 acute inpatient beds, 70 Rehab Central beds, 72 Hilltop beds and 24
Children and Adolescent beds), as well as all existing staff functions, then all floors of the north
tower would need to be utilized for patient care, as well as one floor of the south tower for the
Children and Adolescent Inpatient Service. Significant portions of the first floor and the
remaining floors of the south tower would be utilized for support functions and offices. This
proposed layout assumes that the existing emergency room on the ground floor would be
remodeled for use as BHD’s Psychiatric Crisis Service and for observation beds, and that the
walk-in clinic and Court and support offices would be housed on the first floor. It also assumes

CArcher_Email3013422

Follow-up Report on Potential Relocation of BHD Inpatient Operations
Page 6

7/10/2007

that patient rooms would be built to the St. Francis Hospital Behavioral Health Unit model,
which BHD clinical staff believe would produce significant enhancements to their ability to
provide outstanding patient care.
Under this set of assumptions, BHD would utilize approximately 280,000 square feet in the
605,000 square-foot complex. The estimated cost of such a renovation would be $22,891,460.
Adding a 10% construction contingency, soft costs of 12% (e.g. architectural fees, permits, plan
review) and a 5% owners contingency produces a total estimated renovation cost of $29,072,154.
A more detailed breakdown of these costs is contained in Attachment D.
Because this refined estimated renovation cost was considerably higher than the $16 million to
$26 million rough estimate produced after initial work on the project, staff decided to consider
alternative options that could potentially decrease renovation costs without interfering with
BHD’s core mission and strategic objectives. It was determined that a primary contributor to the
increased renovation estimate was the need to use all five floors of the north tower for patient
care in order to accommodate the optimal design and meet life safety requirements. Originally,
it was hoped that virtually all patient care functions could be fit into the second through fifth
floors in the north tower.
This led to development of an alternative option in which BHD would implement several
downsizing initiatives that have been discussed in previous strategic planning reports and in the
context of the State’s decision to reduce the number of institutional long-term care beds
throughout Wisconsin, and that could enable it to utilize only floors tow through five of the north
tower for patient care. Under this option, the following assumptions were made:
•

BHD would downsize both Rehab Central and Hilltop from three units to two (or roughly 70
beds to 48). This reflects State policies enacted during the past four years that not only
require counties to provide more community-based care, but that provide significant financial
incentives to do so. If BHD were to downsize Rehab Central to fewer than 50 beds, then it
would qualify for a considerably higher per diem payment from the State for the beds that
would remain. In addition, BHD likely would be eligible to receive transition funding from
the State to enable it to plan and implement a Hilltop downsizing.
BHD administrators believe that whether or not these facilities are moved to St. Mike’s,
BHD likely will be required to implement downsizing initiatives anyway at each facility
within the next five years due to the State’s new policies and the Governor’s stated intention
to expand Family Care statewide and reduce the State’s long-term care institutional
population. In light of that belief, if BHD were to move, the logic of renovating the St.
Michael facility in order to accommodate 142 long-term care beds must be questioned. In
addition, it is believed that these downsizing initiatives could significantly alleviate BHD’s
considerable challenges in successfully recruiting psychiatrists, nurses and other key clinical
positions by allowing for the transfer of existing staff to remaining functions.

CArcher_Email3013423

BHD would eliminate its Children and Adolescent Inpatient Service. BHD currently
operates one 24-bed Children and Adolescent unit, which has an average daily census of
approximately 13. It is believed that the average daily census would shrink to below 10 if
BHD were to move to the St. Michael facility, as it receives some usage from Waukesha
County residents who would be unlikely to travel to the new location. In light of that reality,
the desire to fit all patient care functions into the north tower, the benefits that would accrue
to BHD from being able to move Children and Adolescent clinical staff to other inpatient
functions, and the fact that children and adolescent inpatient care is available from other
sources in the community, it is believed that this option should be considered in the context
of a move to St. Michael.

Under this set of assumptions, BHD still would utilize approximately the same amount of space,
but the sixth floor in the north tower would be utilized for observation beds, occupational therapy
rooms and offices, necessitating a less expensive level of renovation. This approach also could
allow BHD to increase the number of observation beds by approximately a half-dozen. In
addition, renovation costs on the first floor would be significantly reduced, as the walk-in clinic
would move to the ground floor in the space reserved for observation beds in Option 1, and
Court offices would be moved to the basement. The south tower, under this option, would house
no patient care activities, which would produce greater operational efficiency. The estimated
cost of such a renovation would be $20,841,000. Adding a 10% construction contingency and
soft costs of 12% (e.g. architectural fees, permits, plan review) produces a total estimated
renovation cost of $26,504,070. A more detailed breakdown of these costs is contained in
Attachment D.
Other Developments
In the report submitted to the County Board in January 2007, DHHS and DAS noted that WFH
was insisting that the County take control of the entire St. Michael facility despite BHD’s need
for only one-half to two-thirds of the square footage. It was recommended that the County
therefore consider either a long-term lease or a purchase of the entire facility.
Since that time, a third option has emerged. WFH has been approached by a private developer
who would be interested in purchasing the facility provided that the County agrees to be the
anchor tenant by agreeing to a long-term lease for the space needed for BHD. Under this option,
the developer would finance and perform the renovation, and the cost would be amortized over
the length of the County’s lease, which would only cover the space needed by BHD. The
developer would then be free to seek and secure additional tenants for the remainder of the
facility. It is possible that the County could negotiate a lease-to-buy arrangement under which it
would take ownership of the facility after the long-term lease expires.
In addition, since the January report, both Milwaukee Center for Independence and Goodwill
Industries have expressed an interest in potentially re-locating programs and staff to St. Michael
alongside BHD.

Finally, the leadership of WFH has expressed a need to know on a timely basis whether the
County is serious about pursuing a re-location to St. Michael. WFH also is considering other
options for the property and has notified the County that it will be forced to pursue those options
and potentially terminate discussions with the County unless it receives a strong statement of
interest from the County in the near future.
Conclusions
o Further due diligence and analysis has concluded that the St. Michael facility is in good
condition and that no significant structural or environmental conditions exist that should
remove the option of a purchase or long-term lease from consideration. However, the $6.1
million in repairs and replacements identified should be a factor in any long-term lease or
sale negotiations.
o Analysis of the existing Mental Health Complex has revealed that the facility is in better
condition than suspected, and that it would require approximately $9 million in major
maintenance or repairs during the next five years.
o Conceptual analysis of the potential consolidation of BHD staff and programs in the western
part of the Complex in order to free up usable space for other County departments or outside
tenants has determined that such consolidation would be possible at a cost of approximately
$10 million. However, use of the remaining space would require considerable renovation
costs that call into question whether such an approach is viable. Furthermore, expenditure of
the $10 million would achieve consolidation, but would do nothing to improve the patient
care environment in BHD.
o The $29 million cost of renovating the St. Michael facility to accommodate all existing BHD
functions and achieve an optimal patient care environment raises the question of affordability
for the County. The answer to that question cannot be determined without knowing the
potential sale price of the existing BHD property, the final long-term lease terms or purchase
price of the St. Michael facility, and a more precise calculation of annual operating savings
that would be realized in the new location.
o An alternative approach under which the County would implement a strategic downsizing of
BHD long-term care and inpatient operations in the context of a move to St. Michael should
be considered. This approach has the potential to reduce renovation costs, produce
significant additional operational savings that could be re-directed into remaining inpatient
and long-term care operations, help address clinical staff shortages, and achieve in an orderly
fashion a long-term care downsizing that is likely to be required anyway.
o A new option that has emerged under which WFH would sell the St. Michael facility to a
private developer, who would then enter into a long-term lease with the County for the space
required by BHD, should be considered alongside the long-term lease and sale options. This
new option could expedite the move process by eliminating the need for County financing for

the St. Michael renovation, which in turn would reduce the pressure to finalize the sale of the
existing property before any renovation work could take place. In addition, it would enable
the County to be a tenant in the St. Michael facility, which would eliminate the need for it to
seek additional tenants and to handle the myriad of other property management and related
issues that are associated with ownership.
o Relocation of BHD functions to the St. Michael facility, coupled with sale of the existing
BHD property, continues to represent an extremely promising option that could greatly assist
Milwaukee County in responsibly addressing the formidable fiscal and programmatic issues
facing its Behavioral Health Division. This option could produce significant overhead and
infrastructure savings for BHD that could be re-directed to patient care, enhance the patient
care environment, and potentially allow the County to utilize BHD land sale revenue to
finance the cost of the move and renovation plus provide additional fiscal resources for
patient care. However, despite the promise of this option, a conclusive determination
regarding its efficacy cannot be made until the County has finalized negotiations and has
determined the terms of a long-term lease or purchase, and until it has determined the amount
of revenue it could realize from the sale of the existing property.
o As noted above, the challenges facing BHD are formidable, to say the least. BHD’s 2008
requested budget required an additional $5 million of property tax levy support simply to
meet its “cost to continue”, i.e. increased wages, increased cost of pharmaceuticals and
utilities, and full-year cost of dozens of new positions added to respond to the overflow of
demand on the Psychiatric Crisis Service and adult inpatient units and increased patient
acuity. In light of a continued freeze in State Community Aids funding and continued threats
of cutbacks in Medicaid spending at both the State and Federal level, the need to significantly
increase property tax levy support for BHD in future years is almost certain to continue. This
growing mandated human services fiscal burden, in turn, poses a real threat to discretionary
human services provided by the County, such as the General Assistance Medical Program, as
well as a threat to all discretionary programs and services in the County budget. If a move
to the St. Michael facility is not part of the answer to these challenges, then it is crucial for
the County to develop alternative solutions.
Recommendation
It is recommended that the Directors of DAS, DHHS and ECD be authorized to negotiate a longterm lease or purchase of the St. Michael property with Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare, or a
long-term lease for space within the St. Michael property with a third party entity determined by
Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare, and submit a proposed lease or purchase agreement to the
County Board of Supervisors for its consideration before the end of 2007. Any such agreement
should also include a recommendation on the precise amount of space to be utilized by BHD and
the number of inpatient and long-term care beds it would intend to operate at the new facility.
It is further recommended that the Director of ECD be authorized to prepare and issue a Request
for Proposals (RFP) for the purchase of BHD’s existing property.

Fiscal Impact
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with this request. The use of outside legal counsel to
assist with negotiations with WFH will be covered under the $200,000 appropriation previously
authorized by the County Board in January 2007. Also, significant staff time will be required to
prepare and issue the RFP and conduct and conclude negotiations with WFH and/or a private
developer. A fiscal note form is attached.

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
INTEROFFICE COMMUNICATION

DATE

:

June 30, 2007

TO

:

Supervisor Lee Holloway, Chairman, County Board of Supervisors

FROM

:

Robert Henken, Director of Administrative Services
Bill Domina, Corporation Counsel
Prepared by: Scott B. Manske, Controller

SUBJECT

:

Request for Authorization to Increase the Contract Amount with Foley &
Lardner, Weissburg & Aronson to Represent Milwaukee County in Matters
Relating to John L. Doyne Hospital
Policy Issue
Milwaukee County Ordinance 56.30 requires that all professional service contracts over $50,000
requiring modification receive the approval of the County Board prior to their execution. This report is
requesting authorization to increase the contract amount with Foley & Lardner, Weissburg & Aronson to
continue to represent Milwaukee County in matters relating to John L. Doyne Hospital.
Action Recommended
It is recommended that:
1)

The Director of the Department of Administrative Services be authorized to increase the contract
with Foley & Lardner, Weissburg & Aronson to represent Milwaukee County on a fee for service
basis, by $100,000 from $350,000 to $450,000. Foley & Lardner, Weissburg & Aronson would
continue to represent Milwaukee County in any and all matters relating to the sale of John L. Doyne
Hospital with the Medicare and Medicaid Programs.

2)

The Corporation Counsel be directed to prepare and execute a contract amendment for this increased
amount with Foley & Lardner, Weissburg & Aronson to continue to represent Milwaukee County on
a reduced fee basis.

Background
In June, 1997, Milwaukee County contracted with Foley & Lardner, Weissburg & Aronson to assist
Milwaukee County in pursuing its claim for reimbursement regarding the 1995 Final Medicare Cost
Report for John L. Doyne Hospital (JLDH). In January, 2000, the Health Care Financing Administration
(HCFA) issued a Notice of Program Reimbursement (NPR) to Milwaukee County in the amount of $12.5
million for settlement of the Medicare Cost Report.
This represented a successful resolution to the Milwaukee County claim for reimbursement from the
Medicare program for the final cost of operations of JLDH and the County's claim to the Medicare
Program for loss on sale of building and assets to Froedtert Memorial Lutheran Hospital. However, one
major matter remains to be resolved:
1)

Appeal to Medicare on Reimbursement for Retiree Healthcare Costs – In July, 1998,
Milwaukee County submitted an amendment to the 1995 Cost Report for reimbursement of

CArcher_Email3013436

Supervisor Lee Holloway

-2-

June 30, 2007

Medicare's share of the healthcare costs associated with retirees from JLDH. The amount of the
County's claim was $8.1 million based on two years of actual expense (1996 and 1997) and a
projection for the balance of a 40-year period. The HCFA settlement ignored reimbursement for
these costs.
In July, 1998 Milwaukee County submitted an amendment to the 1995 Cost Report for reimbursement of
Medicare's share of the healthcare costs associated with retirees from Doyne Hospital. The amount of the
County's claim was $8.1 million based on two years of actual expense (1996 and 1997) and a projection
for the balance of a 40-year period. The HCFA settlement ignored reimbursement for these costs.
The HCFA chose not to recognize the County's claim for reimbursement due to the fact that Doyne
Hospital was no longer a provider of service after December 21, 1995. However, it is the County’s
position that Doyne Hospital appropriately followed Medicare regulations and claimed only those
employee and retiree health care costs incurred on an annual basis through 1995. As of the closure of
Doyne Hospital, the annual cost of providing retiree healthcare was a valid cost incurred as a hospital
provider under the Medicare Program. Subsequent to the closure of Doyne Hospital, the Medicare
Program is not providing a method of reimbursement for Milwaukee County for Doyne Hospital retiree
health care costs.
Foley & Lardner reviewed the matter and recommended that Milwaukee County proceed with an appeal
to the Provider Reimbursement Review Board (PRRB) on this matter. Three issues were to have been
argued before the PRRB: 1) Milwaukee County's right to appeal this issue; 2) the County's position as to
this being an included cost for Medicare reimbursement; and 3) an updated cost estimate and how the cost
was derived. The PRRB, on December 3, 2003, granted Milwaukee County the right to appeal this issue
before them, thus resolving in the County’s favor the first argument. The second and third issues were to
have been argued before the PRRB in May, 2004 but the meeting was cancelled due to PRRB member
scheduling conflicts.
In preparation for the May, the County updated its claim for retiree health costs by obtaining actual costs
for retirees for the period of 1996 through 2002. These costs totaled $2,340,255. Estimated retiree health
costs after year 2002 were projected at $9,766,934 for a total cost estimate of $12.1 million.
In an attempt to resolve this issue, prior to the PRRB hearing, the County contacted the Medicare
intermediary on the Doyne Hospital claim, United Government Services (UGS). UGS was the agency
that had reviewed Doyne Hospital’s final Medicare claim. They had approved the settlement for the loss
on the sale, but had denied the claim for reimbursement of retiree health cost claims. Several conference
calls were held with UGS, but they were not willing to recommend a settlement to Medicare, or the
PRRB.
Subsequent to this date, discussions were held with the Federal Department of Health and Human
Services, the lead agency over Medicare, regarding the claim. These discussions did not result in any
settlement or change to the process.
On March 8, 2006, the County was provided a hearing before the PRRB in Baltimore, Maryland. The
hearing provided an opportunity for the County to go on record with its arguments regarding its cost
report claim request. The County was represented by Foley & Lardner, the controller, a consultant who
had done the revised calculations for the claim, and an actuary to certify as to the reasonableness of the
claim.

Supervisor Lee Holloway

June 30, 2007

Current Status:
On May 10, 2007, the County was notified that the claim had been denied. The claim was denied based
on the PRRB’s interpretation of a July 27, 1995 Medicare regulation regarding Deferred Compensation,
which includes post-retirement health care costs.
While the County determined that it did not want to file an appeal to the Administrator, in a letter dated
June 5, 2007, the Administrator indicated he would take on the appeal without a request from the County.
Depending on the outcome of the Medicare Administrator decision, an option for the County is to obtain
a judicial review by filing a civil action in Federal district court. Milwaukee County has the option of
filing the civil action in either the Federal district court for Milwaukee County or the Federal district court
for the District of Columbia. This filing must occur forty-five days after July 9, 2007.
We held a discussion with the Judiciary Committee during the June 2007 County Board cycle to discuss
the status of the case, and look for a recommendation of whether the County should pursue the appeal of
this claim. The cost to appeal the claim would be at least $100,000.
It is the opinion of Foley & Lardner that the County case will follow a similar path to that of Wayne
County. However, given the magnitude of the Milwaukee County claim and the importance of having
Milwaukee County prepared to respond to the Federal agencies in a timely manner and accurate manner,
it is recommended that the services of Foley & Lardner continue to be contracted for at this time for
purposes of the PRRB hearing.
We are recommending $100,000 of additional cost be encumbered for the purposes of pursuing the
Federal court case.
Funds are available to cover the increased cost of this contract amendment from the accrued expenses of
John L. Doyne Hospital. These funds have been carried over for the potential costs associated with the
appeal of the County's Medicare claim. The cost of both the loss on sale and the retiree health cost claim
has been $328,000 to date. The retiree health cost claim has cost $170,000 of the $328,000 cost. Due to
the potential Medicare reimbursement, the risk associated with increasing additional costs was considered
reasonable.

(Journal,

File No. 2005)

From Director, Department of Administrative Services, recommending authorization to increase the
contract with Foley & Lardner, Weissburg & Aronson by $100,000 from $350,000 to $450,000 to represent
Milwaukee County in any and all matters relating to the sale of John L. Doyne Hospital with the Medicare
Programs on a reduced fee for services basis.
A RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, Milwaukee County Department of Administration contracted with Foley & Lardner,
Weissburg & Aronson in June, 1997 to assist the Department of Administration in pursuing Milwaukee
County's claim to Medicare and Medicaid; and
WHEREAS, the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) issued a Notice of Program
Reimbursement for approximately $12.5 million in January, 2000 based on Milwaukee County's 1995
Medicare claim for John L. Doyne Hospital (JLDH); and
WHEREAS, Milwaukee County submitted an amendment to its 1995 Medicare Cost Report in July,
1998 to claim reimbursement for Medicare's share of the costs associated with retiree healthcare benefits
paid to former JLDH employees; and
WHEREAS, United Government Services (UGS) failed to recognize the Milwaukee County claim for
reimbursement of retiree healthcare benefits paid to former JLDH employees in their Notice of Program
Reimbursement in January, 2000; and
WHEREAS, John L. Doyne Hospital is submitting an appeal to the UGS audit regarding their failure to
recognize the Milwaukee County claim for reimbursement of retiree healthcare benefits paid to former
JLDH employees; and
WHEREAS, Foley & Lardner's expertise regarding the Medicare Programs has been helpful in
completing a successful resolution to the UGS audit for JLDH operations, hospital closure and claim to
Medicare for reimbursement of loss on sale of buildings and assets; and
WHEREAS, interpretation of the rules and regulations related to an appeal of the Medicare decision are
technical requiring the resources of a legal firm skilled in handling these processes; now, therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED, that the Director of the Department of Administrative Services is authorized to
increase the contract with Foley & Lardner, Weissburg & Aronson by $100,000 from $350,000 to $450,000
to represent Milwaukee County on a fee for service basis in any and all matters relating to the sale of John
L. Doyne Hospital with the Medicare Programs; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Corporation Counsel be directed to prepare and execute a
contract amendment for this increased amount with Foley & Lardner, Weissburg & Aronson to continue to
represent Milwaukee County on a reduced fee basis.
FISCAL NOTE: Sufficient funds are available to cover the increased cost of this contract amendment from
the accrued expenses of John L. Doyne Hospital. These funds have been carried over for the potential costs
associated with the appeal of the County's Medicare claim. Only $170,000, of the $350,000 of cost
currently encumbered, was specifically related to this claim. Due to the potential Medicare reimbursement,
of up to $8.4 million, the risk associated with increasing additional costs was considered reasonable.

Updated 2007 Fiscal Report - First Quarter

On June 5, 2007, the Department of Administrative Services had projected Milwaukee County’s
2007 fiscal status based on results as of April 30, 2007 as a projected deficit of ($3,402,000).
Since that date, the Department of Administrative Services has been made aware of changes in
certain department’s fiscal status for 2007. Based on these revised estimates, the projected
deficit for Milwaukee County for 2007 is increasing to ($4,200,000). This is an increase of
$798,000 for the projection.
The deficit is increasing due to changes in the Register of Deeds, the House of Correction, The
DHHS – Behavioral Health Division, and DHHS.
• The Register of Deeds is submitting a report to the Finance and Audit committee
projecting a revenue deficit of $977,000. This is an increase in their projected deficit of
$868,000. The deficit in revenues is due to reduced funds derived from real estate fees.
•

The House of Correction is still projected to breakeven for the year, but the previously
projected surplus of $425,000 may be eliminated due to increased salary and overtime
costs in the department. This is a projection by the Department of Administrative
Services.

•

The DHHS – Behavioral Health Division’s deficit is increasing for 2007 from $2,291,000
to $3,040,000. The deficit increase is due to increased expenditures for personnel,
commodities and services for $340,000 and the reduction in 2007 revenue for Medicaid
cost reimbursement of $409,000. Medicaid cost reimbursement was determined to be a
2006 revenue, and was recognized in 2006, which reduced the projected funding for
2007.

•

The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has reevaluated its fiscal
position for 2007 and is now projecting a surplus of $1,010,000. The increase in the
surplus is due to additional prior year revenue of $917,000, savings in expenditures of
$557,000 offset by additional losses in Youth Aids revenue of $464,000. Total prior year
revenue is expected to be $3.4 million over budget for 2007. This surplus in prior year
revenue will be offset by the loss in Youth Aids revenue of $3.1 million due to higher
numbers of youth in state correction programs.

Updated First Quarter Fiscal Report for 2007
Department of Administrative Services

Page 2
June 30, 2007

In the June 2007 County Board cycle the County Board approved the transfer of $2,000,000 to
the Debt Service Reserve from the 2006 surplus. This transfer provides funds that could be used
in 2007 to offset the projected deficit. Additional funds may also be available in salary savings
in departments that have not been reported to the Department of Administrative Services. This is
based on fewer positions being filled than budgeted, however, these savings may be offset by
overtime costs in departments.
Based on a review of carryovers, the Department of Administrative Services is projecting the
Economic and Community Development Division deficit to be $950,000 for 2007. A report was
submitted after the June 2007 Finance and Audit Committee to the County Executive and the
County Board Chairman regarding the status of the Economic and Community Development
Division (ECD Division). This report indicated that the ECD Division was projecting a deficit of
$1.7 million for 2007. The change in the projected deficit to $950,000 is based on a review of
Housing carryovers for the ECD Division. In a separate report to the Chairman of the Finance
and Audit Committee, the Department of Administrative Services is projecting that the
carryovers for 2006 to 2007 have been overstated by $800,000. This information is preliminary,
and investigations are continuing regarding the status of carryovers, including reconciling to
subsidiary ledgers. Since the 2006 books are closed this carryover will savings will fall to 2007
financials. The carryover adjustment of $0.8 million would reduce the projected deficit from
$1.7 million to $950,000.
The Department of Administrative Services will monitor the countywide financial position. Any
changes to the fiscal status will be reported to this committee in the next monthly cycle.
Committee Action: This is an informational report only. This report should be referred to and
reviewed by the Finance and Audit Committee.

Request for Authorization to Increase the Contract Amount with Foley &
Lardner, Weissburg & Aronson to Represent Milwaukee County in Matters
Relating to John L. Doyne Hospital
Policy Issue
Milwaukee County Ordinance 56.30 requires that all professional service contracts over
$50,000 requiring modification receive the approval of the County Board prior to their
execution. This report is requesting authorization to increase the contract amount with
Foley & Lardner, Weissburg & Aronson to continue to represent Milwaukee County in
matters relating to John L. Doyne Hospital.
Background
In June 1997, Milwaukee County contracted with Foley & Lardner, Weissburg &
Aronson to assist Milwaukee County in pursuing its claim for reimbursement regarding
the 1995 Final Medicare Cost Report for John L. Doyne Hospital (JLDH). In January
2000, the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) issued a Notice of Program
Reimbursement (NPR) to Milwaukee County in the amount of $12.5 million for
settlement of the Medicare Cost Report.
This represented a successful resolution to the Milwaukee County claim for
reimbursement from the Medicare program for the final cost of operations of JLDH and
the County's claim to the Medicare Program for loss on sale of building and assets to
Froedtert Memorial Lutheran Hospital. However, one major matter remains to be
resolved: the County’s appeal to Medicare on Reimbursement for Retiree Healthcare
Costs.
In July 1998, Milwaukee County submitted an amendment to the 1995 Cost Report for
reimbursement of Medicare's share of the healthcare costs associated with retirees from
JLDH. The amount of the County's claim was $8.1 million based on two years of actual
expense (1996 and 1997) and a projection for the balance of a 40-year period. The
HCFA settlement ignored reimbursement for these costs.

CArcher_Email3013452

Doyne Hospital Settlement Contract
Page 2

07/02/2007

The HCFA chose not to recognize the County's claim for reimbursement due to the fact
that Doyne Hospital was no longer a provider of service after December 21, 1995.
However, it is the County’s position that Doyne Hospital appropriately followed
Medicare regulations and claimed only those employee and retiree health care costs
incurred on an annual basis through 1995. As of the closure of Doyne Hospital, the
annual cost of providing retiree healthcare was a valid cost incurred as a hospital provider
under the Medicare Program. Subsequent to the closure of Doyne Hospital, the Medicare
Program is not providing a method of reimbursement for Milwaukee County for Doyne
Hospital retiree health care costs.
Foley & Lardner reviewed the matter and recommended that Milwaukee County proceed
with an appeal to the Provider Reimbursement Review Board (PRRB) on this matter.
Three issues were to have been argued before the PRRB: 1) Milwaukee County's right to
appeal this issue; 2) the County's position as to this being an included cost for Medicare
reimbursement; and 3) an updated cost estimate and how the cost was derived. The
PRRB, on December 3, 2003, granted Milwaukee County the right to appeal this issue
before them, thus resolving in the County’s favor the first argument. The second and
third issues were to have been argued before the PRRB in May 2004, but the meeting was
cancelled due to PRRB member scheduling conflicts.
In preparation for the May meeting, the County updated its claim for retiree health costs
by obtaining actual costs for retirees for the period of 1996 through 2002. These costs
totaled $2,340,255. Estimated retiree health costs after year 2002 were projected at
$9,766,934 for a total cost estimate of $12.1 million.
In an attempt to resolve this issue prior to the PRRB hearing, the County contacted the
Medicare intermediary on the Doyne Hospital claim, United Government Services
(UGS). UGS was the agency that had reviewed Doyne Hospital’s final Medicare claim.
They had approved the settlement for the loss on the sale, but had denied the claim for
reimbursement of retiree health cost claims. Several conference calls were held with
UGS, but they were not willing to recommend a settlement to Medicare, or the PRRB.
Subsequent to this date, discussions were held with the Federal Department of Health and
Human Services, the lead agency over Medicare, regarding the claim. These discussions
did not result in any settlement or change to the process.
On March 8, 2006, the County was provided a hearing before the PRRB in Baltimore,
Maryland. The hearing provided an opportunity for the County to go on record with its
arguments regarding its cost report claim request. The County was represented by Foley
& Lardner, the controller, a consultant who had done the revised calculations for the
claim, and an actuary to certify as to the reasonableness of the claim.

CArcher_Email3013453

Doyne Hospital Settlement Contract
Page 3

07/02/2007

Current Status
On May 10, 2007, the County was notified that the claim had been denied based on the
PRRB’s interpretation of a July 27, 1995 Medicare regulation regarding Deferred
Compensation, which includes post-retirement health care costs.
While the County determined that it did not want to file an appeal to the Administrator, in
a letter dated June 5, 2007, the Administrator indicated he would take on the appeal
without a request from the County. Depending on the outcome of the Medicare
Administrator decision, an option for the County is to obtain a judicial review by filing a
civil action in Federal district court. Milwaukee County has the option of filing the civil
action in either the Federal district court for Milwaukee County or the Federal district
court for the District of Columbia. This filing must occur forty-five days after July 9,
2007.
The Corporation Counsel discussed this matter with the Judiciary Committee during the
June 2007 County Board cycle. The cost to appeal the claim would be at least $100,000.
It is the opinion of Foley & Lardner that the County case will follow a similar path to that
of Wayne County, which recently lost a similar case. However, given the magnitude of
the Milwaukee County claim and the importance of having Milwaukee County prepared
to respond to the Federal agencies in a timely manner and accurate manner, it is
recommended that the County continue to contract for the services of Foley & Lardner at
this time for purposes of the PRRB hearing.
Recommendation
It is recommended that:
1)

The Director of the Department of Administrative Services be authorized to increase
the contract with Foley & Lardner, Weissburg & Aronson to represent Milwaukee
County on a fee for service basis by $100,000, from $350,000 to $450,000. Foley &
Lardner, Weissburg & Aronson would continue to represent Milwaukee County in
any and all matters relating to the sale of John L. Doyne Hospital with the Medicare
and Medicaid Programs.

2)

The Corporation Counsel be authorized to prepare and execute a contract
amendment for this increased amount with Foley & Lardner, Weissburg & Aronson
to continue to represent Milwaukee County on a reduced fee basis.

Fiscal Impact
Funds are available to cover the increased cost of this contract amendment from the
accrued expenses of John L. Doyne Hospital. These funds have been carried over for the
potential costs associated with the appeal of the County's Medicare claim. The cost of
both the loss on sale and the retiree health cost claim has been $350,000 to date. The
retiree health cost claim has cost $192,000 of this $350,000. Due to the potential
Medicare reimbursement, the risk associated with increasing additional costs is
considered reasonable.

to represent Milwaukee County in any and all matters relating to the sale of John L. Doyne
Hospital with the Medicare Programs on a reduced fee for services basis.
A RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, Milwaukee County Department of Administration contracted with Foley &
Lardner, Weissburg & Aronson in June, 1997 to assist the Department of Administration in

WHEREAS, the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) issued a Notice of Program
Reimbursement for approximately $12.5 million in January, 2000 based on Milwaukee County's
1995 Medicare claim for John L. Doyne Hospital (JLDH); and
WHEREAS, Milwaukee County submitted an amendment to its 1995 Medicare Cost Report in
July, 1998 to claim reimbursement for Medicare's share of the costs associated with retiree
healthcare benefits paid to former JLDH employees; and
WHEREAS, United Government Services (UGS) failed to recognize the Milwaukee County
claim for reimbursement of retiree healthcare benefits paid to former JLDH employees in their
Notice of Program Reimbursement in January, 2000; and
WHEREAS, John L. Doyne Hospital is submitting an appeal to the UGS audit regarding their
failure to recognize the Milwaukee County claim for reimbursement of retiree healthcare benefits

WHEREAS, Foley & Lardner's expertise regarding the Medicare Programs has been helpful in
completing a successful resolution to the UGS audit for JLDH operations, hospital closure and
claim to Medicare for reimbursement of loss on sale of buildings and assets; and
WHEREAS, interpretation of the rules and regulations related to an appeal of the Medicare
decision are technical requiring the resources of a legal firm skilled in handling these processes;
now, therefore,

Rob and Cindy
I have updated the Health and Fringes memo based on our discussion. I have
included a paragraph on pharmacy costs and utilization of mail order. I am
copying this memo to Dave Arena so that he can see the memo.
I think this should be ready to go except for a review of the pharmacy

Health Care Cost Update for 2006 and 2007 – June 2007 Report

POLICY
At the request of the Finance & Audit Committee, the Department of Administrative Services is
reporting on the final actual health insurance expenditures for 2006 and the projected health
expenditures for 2007. This report has been requested to better track the County’s progress
toward meeting 2006 and 2007 budgeted expenditures for health insurance.
BACKGROUND
2006 Health Care Costs:
For 2006, the County budgeted approximately $117 million in expenditure authority to be paid to
Wisconsin Physicians Service Insurance Corporation (WPS) utilizing a “fully-insured” model for
health insurance. These expenditures for health insurance covered all eligible active employees,
retirees and their dependents.
The 2006 budget also assumed the County would realize $10.2 million in cost-savings, which
would have reduced the projected health insurance expenditures to $106.8 million.
These savings were expected due to the implementation of co-payments, new prescription drug
pricing structures and increases in employee contributions. The anticipated savings were
expected to begin accruing January 1, 2006, with the exception of changes in employee
contributions, which took effect on July 1, 2006.
Since the beginning of 2006, the County Board Finance and Audit Committee has requested and
received monthly updates on the status of the County’s health care budget. DAS originally
estimated that the health care budget would realize a deficit of approximately $7.0 million under
the fully-insured plan, based on figures from February through September of 2006.
In September 2006, Milwaukee County converted its health insurance coverage from a fullyinsured model to a self-insured model. The rationale for this change was the expectation that the
costs of the self-insured plan would be lower than continuing with the fully-insured contract for
the remainder of the four-year contract with WPS. The cost differential was estimated at $18.7
million (nominal dollars) over the four years of the contract in the fiscal note provided in
September 2006.

CArcher_Email3013459

Department of Administrative Services
Health Cost Update for 2006 and 2007 – June 2007 Report

June 26, 2007
Page 2

In December 2006, DAS reported that the health care budget would realize a deficit of $10.7
million, under the self-insured model. After updated medical cost reports were received in
January 2007, the deficit was reduced to $8.5 million. In March 2007 the projected 2006
health care deficit was adjusted to $8.3 million.
2007 Health Costs
A preliminary review of 2007 enrollments indicates that the County is currently below budgeted
enrollments for 2007 by 89 active enrollees and 164 retired enrollees. The total number of active
enrollments is 4,531. The total number of retired enrollments is 5,968. Review of the open
enrollment in November 2006 found that there were no major changes or shifts between health
plans by employees or retirees. The potential savings to the County, if the number of enrollments
stays at this reduced level, could be $2.5 million. Since the County is self-insured these savings
are not guaranteed and this estimate is simply based on an average rate times the number of
participants.
An additional open enrollment was conducted for AFSCME DC-48 and Non-represented
employees in February 2007. The February 2007 open enrollment was the result of changes in
employee premium contributions adopted in January 2007 for these two groups of employees.
An analysis of the February 2007 open enrollment found that less than 100 people changed their
health plan choice. Employees who did change their health plan choice moved from the
Statewide Preferred Provider Plan (Statewide PPO) to other plan choices including a Patient
Choice PPO and HMO and the Wheaton Franciscan HMO. The migration appears to be the result
of higher premium contribution rates for the Statewide PPO plan. The Statewide PPO has the
highest employee premium contribution, under the new contract, of $100 per single plan members
and $200 per family plan members. The potential savings to the County for this change in
enrollments is $931,000, which would be offset by a loss in employee premium contributions of
$92,000. Since the County is self-insured these savings are not guaranteed and this estimate is
simply based on an average rate times the number of participants.
The current budget for County-wide health care costs is $129.5 million. In the AFSCME DC-48
contract fiscal note, the Department of Administrative Services was projecting a savings of $2.5
million for the health care changes that were in the then proposed DC-48 contract. A fund
transfer was made to reduce the health care budget to $127.0 million. No fund transfers are
proposed to transfer savings due to lower enrollments or due to shifts in enrollments, since the
County is self-insured for health care.
CURRENT STATUS
2006 Status:
The estimate of the health care shortfall is being updated to a deficit of $7.7 million. This deficit
consists of actual 2006 costs of $113,900,000 for employee and retiree health insurance, and
budgeted costs of $106,226,000. The budgeted costs are a combination of health insurance
budgeted costs in org unit 1950 - Fringe Benefits of $116,426,000, offset by projected savings in

CArcher_Email3013460

Department of Administrative Services
Health Cost Update for 2006 and 2007 – June 2007 Report

June 26, 2007
Page 3

org unit 1972 – Wage and Benefits Supplemental of $10,200,000. A post close entry was made to
reduce costs by $600,000 based on a continuing evaluation of 2006 costs.
We estimated the 2006 health care cost based on total payments made to WPS through March
2007. We are continuing to monitor the estimate of payments to see if our projections are still
holding for 2006. This department is comfortable with its closing projection for 2006.
In previous months, we have provided you with an estimate of the cost of the County switching
from a fully insured health plan to a self – insured health plan. The additional cost to the County
of switching to a self-insured health plan in 2006 was $1.1 million. Previous estimates were as
high as $3 million for the cost of this switch in 2006.
Total fringe benefit revenues and costs for 2006, which includes health care, dental care, pension,
life insurance and professional services, is projected to be $152,242,000. The budget for 2006
fringe benefit costs, net of the budgeted savings in org unit 1972 of $10,200,000, is $143,823,000.
Total fringe benefits, including health care costs, would be in deficit by $8.4 million for 2006.
2007 Status:
The County is monitoring health costs for 2007 and is projecting health savings of $3.9 million.
These savings are based on a health budget for 2007 of $127.0 million and projected health costs
of $123.1 million.
The projection of health costs for 2007 is based on costs incurred by the self-insured health plan
for the past 17 months, and then annualizing these costs for 2007. The savings for 2007 have
fluctuated from month to month based on this monitoring methodology. This is to be expected.
We have received a first quarter 2007 report from Medco Health Solutions on the prescription
drug costs of Milwaukee County. This report compared drug costs between the first quarter of
2006 to the first quarter of 2007. Drug costs have increased by $752,000 over the comparable
period. This is an increase of 13.2% in per member per month costs. The increase in per member
per month costs is due to an increase in utilization, use of higher costing drugs, inflation, and a
decrease in the dollars provided through member cost sharing. Overall cost sharing for the first
quarter was 16.5% of gross prescription costs. Mail order usage for the first quarter of 2007 was
30.9% of total prescription usage, based on the number of days of prescription therapy. Retail
usage was 69.1% of total prescription usage for the same period. The data seems to indicate that
over 90% of the prescriptions filled on mail order were for maintenance drugs. Increases usage of
mail order prescriptions could occur, since over 70% of retail prescriptions were for maintenance
drugs. Maintenance drugs are the intended usage of a mail order drug system, which tends to
have lower costs for drugs, and reduced dispensing fees.

Review of Economic and Community Development Division 2006 Carryovers

Request:
At the meeting of the Finance and Audit Committee on June 14, 2007, the Department of
Administrative Services was requested to review the 2006 carryovers to 2007 for the Economic
and Community Development Division (ECD Division).
Background:
As reported in the May 29, 2007 Final Report of 2006 Carryovers to 2007, the total net 2006
carryovers for the ECD Division was a negative ($933,052). This carryover resulted in a
reduction in tax levy for 2006 equal to this same amount. The carryover consisted of $5,222,247
of expenditure carryovers, which were offset by revenue carryovers of $4,289,195.
For the prior year, total net 2005 carryovers for the ECD agency was a positive $1,247,502. This
carryover increased available tax levy and had a positive impact on the 2005 results equal to this
same amount. The carryover consisted of $4,055,093 of expenditure carryovers offset by
$5,302,594 of revenue carryovers. Due to the review of the 2006 financial results of the ECD
Division, the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) reviewed the 2005 carryover report
for this division. The Finance and Audit committee was informed by a report in the May 2007
reporting cycle that the 2005 carryovers were overstated by $1,161,238. The net carryovers for
2005, based on this adjustment, would have reduced the 2005 carryover to a positive $86,264.
Review:
The ECD Division carryover amount contained in the May 29 2007 Carryover Report was based
on the best information available to DAS at that time. Subsequent to that report, additional work
has been performed by DAS, the ECD Division, and Hoppe and Orendorff, which has resulted in
these revised carryover dollars. This review is not complete, since we are still examining several
grants. The review of these grants is an ongoing process. The County Executive and County
Board will be notified of any additional financial impact that comes from the review of these
grants. The open issues, necessary to complete the carryover review, consist of a reconciliation
of subsidiary ledger detail for the Home Repair grant and the Community Development Block
Grant to the final carryover amounts. The current estimates for the carryovers for these two
grants appear reasonable, and material changes are not anticipated to reported dollars.

CArcher_Email3013466

Department of Administrative Services
Review of Carryovers of the Economic and Community Development Division for 2006

Page 2
July 2, 2007

Our review has determined that revenue carryovers for the HOME grant and Rent Assistance
Voucher Program are understated. In addition, the expenditure carryovers for the HOME grant,
and Home Repair grants are overstated. A minor variance was found for the Community
Development Block Grant program expenditure carryover of $6,426. The net impact of these
changes would reduce the 2006 carryover by $799,767. As stated above, the 2006 net carryover
for ECD Division was ($933,052). Adjusting for the carryover changes the 2006 net carryover
would have been reduced to ($133,285). This is a positive impact to the County’s financials,
which is based on a continuing review of the ECD Division grant programs. At present, the
2006 financial statements are closed, and this carryover variance will reduce the projected deficit
for 2007 for the ECD Agency.
The following summarizes the carryover review on a program by program basis.
•

The Home grant provides funding on an annual basis for home repair, community work,
and inspection services of the home repair program, plus an administrative
reimbursement. A reconciliation has taken place between the subsidiary ledger of the
Home grant and the carryover report. This reconciliation determined that there was an
overstatement of the revenue carryover of $477,915, and the expenditure carryover of
$72,115. The net impact of these two adjustments would decrease ECD Division net
deficit carryover for 2006 by $550,030. The discrepancy in the carryover was the result
of an addition error, and was found in the reconciliation of the subsidiary ledger of the
Home grant.

•

The Home Repair Loan program was found to have an overstatement in the expenditure
carryover of $132,035. This adjustment would have reduced the ECD Division deficit
for the carryover by the same $132, 035. The Home Repair Loan program can pay for
administrative costs to run this program. These administrative costs were accrued for at
the end of 2006 and as a result should have reduced the expenditure carryover. A detailed
reconciliation is currently being made between the carryovers and the subsidiary ledgers
of the Home Repair Loan program. Additional variances may be found as a result of the
reconciliation.

•

The Voucher Program included a revenue carryover of a negative $124,128. This
negative carryover should not have been included in the 2006 carryover report.
Eliminating this carryover would reduce the ECD Division deficit for the carryover by
$124,128.

•

The Community Development Block Grant program was found to have a minor variance
in the expenditure carryovers of $6,426. The expenditure carryovers should be increased
by this dollar amount, and as result the ECD Division carryover deficit would be
increased. This amount was found in a review of all carryovers. A reconciliation is in
process to reconcile the final carryovers for 2006 to the subsidiary ledgers for the block
grant program.

Cindy,
Here is Umhoefer's request. Attached is what I intend to send to him with your
approval. I did confirm that he received my out of office email and in fact,
he called Mike Mazur and asked if he could produce the information for him.
Mike told him he'd have to wait until I got back.
The attached data includes two columns for number of claims. I did this to
clarify that not every claim that is reported to us requires payment (if there
is no lost time or medical care). I will explain this to Dave in my email.

For your information only, the large increase in the amount paid in 2005 is due
to one severe claim requiring extensive medical care, alternative job placement

and loss of earning capacity.
Let me know if I can send this.
Thanks,

Hi Judy:
Last year you provided some department by department numbers for me on #
worker’s comp claims, dollars paid out.
I’m looking specifically at the House of Correction and wonder if you could
provide me the updated figures for all of 2006. I think I had a partial year.
If you have year to date for 2007 that would be great, in addition.
Any help appreciated.

Please note that the attached resolution has no timeline. We will have to
discuss strategy on how to proceed after the holiday. Until then, sit tight on
this and continue your work on 2008 budget issues.

File No. 04-267(a)(b)
(Journal, September 28, 2006)
(ITEM NO. 3) From the Director of Transportation and Public Works, requesting approval
of the Technical Energy Audit and Project Development contract award to Ameresco,
Johnson Controls and Honeywell for the Guaranteed Energy Savings Performance
Contract to repair County building infrastructure, by recommending adoption of the
following:
A RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, on August 1, 2004, the County Board adopted a resolution (File No.
04-267) that directed the Parks Director, in conjunction with the Department of
Administrative Services – Fiscal Affairs (DAS), Risk Management and Corporation counsel
to prepare a Request for Qualifications/Request for Proposal (RFP) for the selection of a
vendor to provide Guaranteed Energy Savings Performance Contracting (GESPC) to
repair County building infrastructure; and
WHEREAS, a team of staff from DAS, Corporation Counsel, Parks Department,
Zoo and Department of Transportation Public Works (DTPW) selected three Energy
Services Companies (ESCOs), which would provide the GESPC, for recommendation to
the County Board; and
WHEREAS, the project team recommended to the Director of DTPW that a
separate but equivalent award of contract, in the amount of $2 million, be made to the
three selected ESCOs, which include Ameresco, Honeywell and Johnson Controls; and
WHEREAS, the County Board, at its October 11, 2006 meeting, approved the
three separate project development contracts and further directed DTPW to submit the
negotiated proposed GESPC for each ESCO to the County Board for approval; and
WHEREAS, concurrent to negotiations with the ESCOs, DAS performed a due
diligence review of Ameresco’s and Honeywell’s proposals for the June 2007 cycle of the
County Board (report dated June 4, 2007) that suggested there is a probability of
Milwaukee County recovering project costs and exceeding savings achieved through
energy consumption; and
WHEREAS, it also concluded that neither ESCO intends to provide a contractual
guarantee based on actual utility costs records, meaning that while the project cost
recovery is probable, it is not truly “guaranteed”; and

WHEREAS, the report further stated Corporation Counsel had opined that a
separate RFP process would be necessary for the selection of a financing entity, since
Ameresco would not provide financing of the project costs and Honeywell Global
Finance, LLC is a separate limited liability corporation; and
WHEREAS, based on these recommendations, the Committee on Parks, Energy
and Environment, at its June 12, 2007 meeting voted 5-0 to authorize DAS to conduct
an RFP process to identify a financing entity for the ESCO proposals; now, therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED, that the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors authorizes and
directs the Director, Department of Administrative Services, to conduct a Request for
Proposals and select a financing entity for the Ameresco and Honeywell proposals for
County Board approval.

JOINT LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL PREFATORY NOTE:
This bill is
recommended by the Joint Legislative Council’s Special Committee on

WLC: 0032/2

for independent airport authorities, providing for the regulation of airport
authority creation, jurisdiction, governance, and finance and the

In general, the bill provides the following:
1. Authorizes a city, village, or county, or a combination of them, to
create a local airport district as a separate local unit of government.
2. Provides that a district board will consist of 9 members serving
staggered 4−year terms. Two members of the board will be appointed by
the governor; 2 members of the board will be appointed by the chief
elected official of the creating local governmental unit; 2 members of the
district board will be appointed by the chief elected officials of the
surrounding community; 2 members of the board will be appointed by
the chief elected officials of contiguous counties; and one member of the
board will be appointed by: (a) the chief elected official of the city
having the greatest population in the district, if the creating local
governmental unit is a county; or (b) in addition to other appointment
authority, the chief elected official of the creating local governmental
unit if the creating local governmental unit is a city or village.
3. Provides that a local airport district will have general operational

county currently may exercise with regard to airports, aircraft, and
aeronautics facilities.
7. Authorizes a local airport district to issue revenue bonds that will be
paid solely out of revenues of the district. The bonds will not be the
personal liability of a district board member or a signatory to the bonds
and will not be an obligation of the state or any political subdivision of
the state.
8. Provides that a local airport district will not pay property taxes,
income taxes, sales and use taxes, motor vehicle fuel taxes, or real estate

9. Provides that a county containing a first−class city will receive its

public lands and from the investment board in order to fund any shortfall
in operating revenues during a fiscal year.
10. Subjects members of a local airport district board to the statutory
code of ethics for local public officials.
11.
Provides that a transfer agreement from a creating local
governmental unit to a local airport district may provide for the complete
assumption of liabilities and obligations of the creating local district and
provides that the transfer agreement must require the district to accept an
assignment of any collective bargaining agreement in force at the time of
the transfer with respect to persons employed by the creating local
governmental unit at a transferred airport or airport facilities. Also, the
district must recognize and bargain in good faith with existing unions.
Finally, the bill provides that a transfer agreement must require the
district to accept an assignment of all contracts with other persons, with
respect to transferred airport facilities, that are in force at the time of
transfer.

1

use, for airport buildings or other airport facilities or rights−of−way, together with all airport

2

buildings and facilities located thereon.

3

(2) “Airport facilities” means all district property, tangible or intangible, owned in

4

whole or in part, operated, or leased by a district that is principally related to facilities used,

5

available for use, or designed for use, for or by any of the following:

6

(a) The navigation, landing, or take−off of aircraft.

7

(b) The safety, security, storage, maintenance, servicing, or repair of aircraft.

9

transportation.

10

(d) Mail service.

11

(e) Military and national guard units.

12

(f) The safe and efficient operation and maintenance of an airport, and all appurtenant

13
14
15

areas used for airport facilities, and all appurtenant rights−of−way.
(3) “Bond” means any bond, note, or other obligation issued under s. 66.0621 by a
district.

16

(4) “Chief elected official” means the mayor of a city or, if the city is organized under

17

subch. I of ch. 64, the president of the council of that city, the village president of a village,

18

or the county executive of a county or, if the county does not have a county executive, the

19

chairperson of the county board of supervisors.

20

21

(6) “District board” means the governing board of a district.

23
24

1

(9) “Local governmental unit” means any city, village, or county.

2

(10) “Political subdivision” means any city, village, town, or county.

3

(11) “PFC” means a passenger facility charge authorized under 49 USC 40117 and

4
5
6

designated as a passenger facility charge under 14 CFR 158.
(12) “Sponsor” means the public agency authorized by 49 USC 47102 (24) to submit
requests for financial assistance from the FAA.

7

(13) “Surrounding community” means an area consisting of all cities, villages, or towns

8

that have borders contiguous to a district airport, whose territorial jurisdictions include any

9

part of a district airport, or whose territorial jurisdictions include property that has received

10

funding as a result of the most recently adopted noise abatement study, completed pursuant

11

to Part 150 of FAA regulations, for the airport transferred under s. 229.865 on or before the

12

date of transfer. “Surrounding community” does not include a city or village that creates the

13

district.
COMMENT: It is difficult to define the surrounding community in a
manner that will be reliable and consistent statewide. In this case, the
intent appears to be to expand the previous definition so that certain
communities would be included in the surrounding community of a
Mitchell Field Airport District despite the absence of contiguous borders
to, or territorial jurisdiction of that airport district. The above definition
would add the cities of Milwaukee, St. Francis, Cudahy, and Oak Creek
if they were not already included under the previous definition. An
alternative drafting method would be to specify the surrounding
community for a Mitchell Field Airport District and apply the previous
definition to all other districts.

14

(14) “Transfer agreement” means a contract between a district and a local governmental

15

unit that provides the terms and conditions upon which airport facilities and the operation of

16

the facilities are transferred by a local governmental unit to a district.

17

229.861 Creation, organization, and administration. (1) One or more local

18

governmental units may create a district that is a unit of local government, that is a body

corporate and politic, that is separate and distinct from, and independent of, the state and the

2

political subdivisions within its jurisdiction, that has the powers under s. 229.863 and the name

3

of which includes “Airport District”, if all of the following occur:

4

(a) Each local governmental unit adopts an identical enabling resolution declaring the

5

need for, and establishing, a district and identifying the district’s jurisdiction, as described

6

under s. 229.862 (1).

7
8

(b) The enabling resolution adopted by each local governmental unit is signed by that
unit’s chief elected official.
(c) The signed enabling resolution is filed with the secretary of transportation.

10

(d) The members of the district board are appointed and qualified.

11

(2) A district is governed by its district board.

12

(3) The district board consists of the members specified and appointed as follows:

13

(a) Two members of the district board shall be appointed by the governor to 4−year

14

terms expiring on July 1. The initial appointments under this paragraph shall expire on July

15

1 of the 3rd year beginning after the year of creation of a district.

16

(b) Two members of the district board shall be appointed by the chief elected official

17

of the creating local governmental unit to 4−year terms expiring on July 1. The initial

18

appointments under this paragraph shall expire on July 1 of the 4th year beginning after the

19

year of creation of the district.

20

(c) 1. Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, two members of the district board

2. If the surrounding community includes only one chief elected official, that person

2

shall make both appointments. If the surrounding community includes only two chief elected

3

officials, each person shall make one appointment.

4

3. If the surrounding community consists of at least 3 cities, villages, or towns, in any

5

combination, each entity shall be represented on the district board by one of its residents before

6

any one entity is represented a second time. This rotational method of representation shall

7

continue throughout the period of the district’s existence.
COMMENT: Proposed s. 229.861 (3) (c) 3. and (d) 3. attempt to codify
the special committee’s request that representation on a district board
from communities that do not create an airport district be based on a
rotational or sequential basis. The members of the special committee
should review this language to see that it meets with the intent of the
special committee. Other methods of expressing this intent could be
based on the simple expedients of alphabetical order or size of
population.

8

(d) 1. Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, two members of the district board

9

shall be appointed, to 4−year terms expiring on July 1, by a majority of the chief elected

10

officials of the counties contiguous to the county containing the greatest portion of the territory

11

under the jurisdiction of the district. The initial appointments under this paragraph shall expire

12

on July 1 of the 5th year after the year of creation of the district.

13

2. If there is only one contiguous county, the chief elected official of the county shall

14

make both appointments. If there are only two contiguous counties, the chief elected official

15

of each county shall make one appointment.

16

3. If there are at least 3 contiguous counties, each county shall be represented on the

17

district board by one of its residents before any one county is represented a second time. This

18

rotational method of representation shall continue throughout the period of the district’s

19

existence.

COMMENT: Proposed s. 229.861 (3) (d) is an approximation of the
request of the special committee that the catchment area surrounding an
airport be represented on the local airport district board. A member of
the special committee has submitted the following definition of the term
“airport catchment area”:
“An airport catchment area is the geographic area surrounding an airport
from which that airport can reasonably expect to draw passenger traffic.
The airport catchment area is sometimes called the service area.”
The difficulty of incorporating the notion of an airport catchment area in
the draft is that, in practice, it will be very different as applied to each
airport in the state. Inclusion of this descriptive phrase may not clearly
identify to the creating local governmental unit exactly what area needs
to be represented on the local airport district board. Consequently, this
draft attempts to approximate the use of the notion of an airport
catchment area by providing that the majority of the chief elected
officials of the counties contiguous to the county containing the greatest
portion of the territory under the jurisdiction of the district will appoint 2
members to the district board. However, if the special committee would
rather make use of an airport catchment area as a basis for determining
representation on a local airport district board, this provision could be
redrafted to provide that the exact boundaries of an airport catchment
area could be determined on a case−by−case basis by an entity such as
the department of transportation on a periodic basis.

Fw: Change in FLSA Designation
Thursday, July 05, 2007 12:08:10 PM

At my request, the HR department has re-evaluated the Fair Labor Standards Act
(FLSA) designation of the Fiscal and Management Analysts series. Below is
their findings.
In short, these positions had previously been designated as being covered by
the FLSA guaranteeing certain overtime compensation. After review, these
positions have reclassified as FLSA-exempt. The end result of this is that the
County Code will now govern the overtime requirements related to this position
series. I have attached a copy of the relevant code sections for you to
consult. In general, the County Code provides overtime to nonrepresented
positions that are exempt from FLSA at time and a half for those positions in
classifications at or below pay range 28M (Fiscal and Management Analysts I and
II) and overtime at straight time for nonrepresented positions classified at or
above payrange 29M (Fiscal and Management Analysts III). Employees in ECP are
salaried and not compensated for overtime.
I want to be clear. My decision to pursue this was from a public policy,
budget and operational standpoint, not a personal one. I think most of you
know that I have talked about this in the past and have had a consistent belief
that this series of positions were misclassified based on my understanding of
FLSA and my experience over the years working as and supervising budget
analysts in state, local and county governments. I personally viewed the past
designation as an error and I wanted it corrected. Further, I will continue to
advocate for a county-wide study of FLSA designations as the FABA and as a
member of the ECP workgroup to ensure its correct application in Milwaukee
County.
Lastly, I am hopeful now that we are fully staffed, that overtime requirements
that many of you had to accommodate last year will at the very least be
minimized.
If you would like to see me to discuss the above, my door is open.
Thank you.

17.16. Overtime compensation.
This section shall be applied in the following manner, and consistent with collective
bargaining agreements and state and federal regulations:
(1) Employes may be assigned to overtime work provided that such overtime shall be
limited to emergency conditions which endanger the public health, welfare or safety; or
for services required for the protection or preservation of public property; or to perform
the essential functions of a department which cannot be performed with the personnel
available during normal work hours, either because of vacancies in authorized positions
or because of an abnormal peak load in the activities of the department; or for other
purposes which specific provision for overtime compensation has been made by the
county board. Employe s required to work overtime shall be compensated as follows:
(a) Employes represented by a collective bargaining unit shall be compensated for
overtime in accordance with provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act and the
respective collective bargaining agreement.
(b) Employes who are not represented by a collective bargaining unit shall be
compensated for overtime as follows: employes holding positions which are non-exempt
from the Fair Labor Standards Act shall receive time and one-half for all hours worked in
excess of eight (8) hours in a twenty-four (24) hour period or forty (40) hours per week
regardless of the pay range to which the position held is assigned; employes holding
positions authorized in pay range 28M and below which are deemed to be exempt from
the Fair Labor Standards Act shall receive time and one-half for all hours worked in
excess of eight (8) hours in a twenty-four (24) hour period or forty (40) hours per week;
employes holding positions authorized in pay range 29M and above shall receive straight
time overtime for all hours worked in excess of forty (40) hours in a week; and employes
holding a position authorized in the executive compensation plan shall be considered as
salaried and shall not be compensated for overtime.
(c) Employes holding positions authorized on a seasonal basis shall receive time and
one-half for all hours worked in excess of forty (40) hours per week.
(d) Unless a collective bargaining agreement deems otherwise, an appointing authority
may approve payment, or the accrual of compensatory time, for overtime. However, no
employe may accrue more than two hundred forty (240) hours of compensatory time,
unless permitted by the provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act.
(e) Employes holding positions which are covered by the annual work year who are
eligible for time and one-half overtime shall receive payment for the half time portion of
the overtime and shall accrue the straight time portion of the overtime as compensatory
time, up to a maximum of two hundred forty (240) hours of compensatory time, after
which all overtime shall be paid.
(f) Elected officials, members of boards and commissions, and employes compensated
on a per diem, per call or per session basis shall not be compensated for overtime.
(g) Employes included in the executive compensation plan are to be considered salaried
employes and therefore are not eligible for accrual of compensatory time or payment of
overtime. Executive level employes shall be expected to work sufficient hours to perform
their assigned duties effectively.
(h) Unless overtime is required in accordance with the provisions of the Fair Labor
Standards Act, employes shall not receive overtime for hours worked, or credited, in

CArcher_Email3013547

excess of eight (8) hours per day or forty (40) hours per week, if such overtime is due to
holding dual employment status.
(2) Under the conditions specified for emergency overtime, employes may be permitted
to work on holidays or during vacation periods without compensatory time and receive
double time for each day so worked provided that only the hours actually worked on each
of these days shall be considered in any computation of overtime for the biweekly period
in which they occurred.
(3) No payment shall be made for overtime unless funds have been provided for such
payment in the appropriation for personal services or unless a surplus exists in such
appropriation, by reason of vacancies and turnover in authorized positions.
(4) The director of human resources may review the time records submitted by the
departments for the purpose of determining the extent to which overtime is being worked
and compensation time allowed; and may require the heads of departments to submit
reports, supplementary information or other data relative to the need for overtime work;
may investigate the cause and justification for such overtime; and may prescribe such
rules or regulations as in his/her opinion are necessary to control and restrict overtimeto
emergency conditions. The director is further empowered to recommend changes in
procedure or administrative practices which in his/her opinion will eliminate the need for
overtime work, and to report to the appropriate committee of the county board instances
in which the department head refuses to comply with the recommendations.

DAS approval to fill positions
Thursday, July 05, 2007 12:41:20 PM

Molly, I am confused by which positions are coming through DAS Fiscal prior to
filling. I know I have an opportunity to review all requests to fill that come
via a yellow cert form. I am confused about the process for ECP and
Unclassified positions however. Alex said last week that our office does not
sign off on request to fill ECP positions. Vanessa just come in with some
process servers for the District Attorney that were unclassified and had no
yellow cert.
Would you please provide some clarification? My goal is to have a process
where all request to fill are approved by our office. This will be especially
important as we move ahead with current year corrective measures. Before I can
state my expectations, I need to know what the current process is in terms of
which positions now require our approval and which do not.
Thanks much.

II.

Approval of Minutes

Motion was made by Ms. Daniels-Carter, seconded by Mr. Grebe and carried
unanimously to approve the minutes of the April 10, 2007 meeting.
III. & IV. Financial & Fundraising Update
Mike Bernatz reported that the April attendance of 40,000 was ahead of plan and up 14%
from last year after adjusting for the Vatican exhibit attendance. Employee population
remains steady at 117 full time employees. The financial statements through April were
reviewed. It was noted that last year’s totals included revenue from off-site and special
exhibit stores, which MPM does not have now. Large exhibits have a major financial
impact because of increased attendance. Expenses are running $800,000 below plan and
$400,000 below prior year, excluding the Vatican Exhibit impact.
Mr. Bernatz answered a question regarding interest payments under the proposed new
recovery plan, saying they would drop to one third or $450,000 annually after the LIFO
debt is extinguished.
The Balance Sheet was reviewed. April receipts and disbursements were reviewed.
Financial forecast was reviewed. A cash flow shortfall is predicted in June. A request has
been made to Milwaukee County to advance the July payment to May 29th to help with
the cash flow shortfall. Without the proposed recovery plan in place a projected shortfall
of 1 million is projected by the end of September. The proposed recovery plan will be

CArcher_Email3013569

presented to the Milwaukee County Parks Committee, Audit and Finance Committee and
County Board in June. Additional funding is still needed between June and September.
A balance of $319,000 remains on the revolver. Ms. Archer stated that the possibility of
advancing the County payment was to be instead of another draw on the loan. She stated
she would begin to get approval for the advance. Mr. Falbo reiterated that the Committee
had decided previously not to approve any more loans without an approved recovery
plan. Outstanding term and revolver loan balance remains at $4,661,000.
A Covenant Compliance Certificate provided to the Committee showed MPM to be in
complete compliance as of April 30, 2007.
Karen Spahn told the committee that fundraising is even with projections and she is
confident that the goal will be met. Several large gifts are expected within the next two
months. Donations earmarked for the Climate Change exhibit are being received.
Fundraising will begin for the Body Worlds exhibit after the contract has been signed.
Several sponsors have been identified. One and a half million dollars has been raised
towards the $5 million needed for the match to the challenge grant. A new Director of
Corporate Relations has been hired.
V.

Recovery Committee Update

A copy of the letter from the Recovery Committee to Milwaukee County Executive Scott
Walker and County Board Chairman Lee Holloway was provided to the Committee. The
letter summarizes the proposed recovery plan. Mr. Finley thanked everyone for their
cooperative work. The goal is to reduce debt service as soon as possible. Chairman
Holloway will review the plan and forward to the supervisors following initial review and
comment from his staff. Mr. Domina is working on revisions to the Lease and
Management Agreement.
V.

Approval of Proposed Advances

No additional funding was requested at this time.
VI.

Discussion and Possible Action Regarding Body Worlds Exhibit

Dan Finley stated that the Body Worlds exhibit has been traveling for seven years and has
attracted more than 20 million people. A summary budget was provided. The MPM
Board has agreed to enter into agreement subject to Financial Oversight Committee
approval, because of their responsibility to oversee operating expenditures. Mr. Bernatz
stated that there are no up-front costs for the Body Worlds exhibit. MPM will pay 25% of
the marketing costs with the exhibitor. Ticket sales will began in the Fall and create a
cash flow. There have been verbal commitments from donors. The exhibit has been
approved by the MPM Education Committee, Audit and Finance Committee and Board
of Directors. Mr. Falbo stated that since this Committee has not seen a contract, they
would recommend approval based on the understanding that due diligence be performed.
A motion was made by Ms. Daniels-Carter, seconded by Mr. Grebe and carried

Wage & Hour Question of the Month
June 2007
QUESTION:
I know that in order to classify someone as “exempt” from overtime under the

CArcher_Email3013591

“administrative exemption” that the individual has to be paid a salary of at
least $455/week ($23,660 annually). If I pay an employee slightly more than
that amount (say $25,000 annually) and believe that the duties performed by the
employee otherwise satisfy the “duties test” for the exemption, can I be
confident the employee is properly classified as exempt from overtime under the
Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”)?
ANSWER:
Unfortunately, that confidence is not necessarily warranted. The Department of
Labor (“DOL”) takes the position that “the salary paid to an employee is the
‘best single test’ of exempt status.” Consequently, DOL investigators will
often focus attention on those employees classified by employers as “salaried
exempt” who only make the minimum salary or modestly above it. In practice,
DOL investigators will often closely scrutinize an employer’s assertion that an
employee performs duties that satisfy a claimed exemption IF the employee’s
salary is between $23,660 and $40,000 annually. Conversely, if the employee is
being paid a significant salary, DOL investigators will not analyze as
rigorously whether the employee’s duties satisfy all stated exemption
criteria. In essence, the DOL investigators often take a practical approach of
assuming that IF an employer is paying an employee a significant salary, it
must be doing so because the employee is performing some significant tasks that
likely meet the criteria of a claimed exemption. The lesson then, is a simple
one: the more salary an employer pays an employee, the more likely the
employee will be found to be exempt under the FLSA.

Cindy,
        This is a fairly complex process, while this amount has been
"earmarked" for Milw. Cnty, the actually amount received is based on the
adopted transit budget. We then submit a grant request at which time the
formula numbers are compiled and calculated. A place holder for this money is
included in the 2007 budget. I'll have staff draft up a quick info sheet
outlining the process and send it to you.

George

Hello to allJust a brief update on the status of increased funding for transit at the State
level. The 2.5% reinstated by Senator Decker and the extra funding for
Milwaukee and other transit systems in the State put forward by Senator Taylor
will be a big help, if they make it into the final budget. Kelly and Roy have
done a great job and Gary and WURTA are working hard as well. It will still be
an uphill battle from this point. Thanks for all your support on this issue.
Please continue to use your contacts to move these issues forward. We will be
working on this as well. Anita

Good morning Madame Chair;
Please pass this brief memo around to our WURTA members and friends
of transit.
1. Senator Russ Decker was successful in adding the extra .5% to the
already approved 2% annual increase to all systems.
2. Senator Lena Taylor was successful in securing an additional $4
Million to Tier A-1 (Milwaukee) and additional $2 Million to split
proportionately among the remaining tiers    beginning on July 1,
2008. I am including Rod Clark on this message, and he will be able
to tell folks what this would mean to each system in the days ahead.
This increase will apply to the shared ride systems in Tier C as well.
3. Elderly and disabled transportation aids also will receive a 2.5%
increase in each year of the budget cycle. This is welcome news to
the 85.21 program operators.
4. The Governor has proposed a Milwaukee to Madison passenger rail
route and included bonding authority to begin the process. Gwen, you
will love this and of course be able to maintain the "transit
Goddess" title for many years. The Senate caucus modified the
proposal to specify that the bonds may be used for improvements to
establish rail service between Madison and Eau Claire!
5. Senator John Lehman was successful in adding the KRM funding
authorization language (car rental fees). He also added additional
language to allow the Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Transit
Authority the ability to operate all aspects of a transit system and
gave them additional bonding authority. I will forward more details
in the days ahead.
I would like to thank everyone for the calls and letters sent to
their legislative representatives. Together we have achieved some
major financial improvements
I would like to suggest a meeting of WURTA during the week of July
9th to go over the situation and discuss some plans for dealing with
the Conference Committee. We would be able to have some print outs
of the effects of all this legislative action.
I will be available by cell today at 608-219-5237. Full Senate
action will start in a few hours.
Thanks.
Gary.

        Tosa parkway conditions and resulting crash






Hello Luigi,
Rick Amen writing. I currently reside on the eastern side of Tosa in the 19th
district, Pabst Park Neighborhood, and havre been since 2002. I grew up in West
Allis.
I am hoping to recover damages from the County for my personal losses due to a
bike crash I suffered while riding on the parkway in Tosa, by Hansen gold
CArcher_Email3013600

course on April 28th, 2006.
I posted a comment on the Wauwatosanow.com message board where a discussion of
the Parkway system's deteriorating condition is ongoing. It was recommended by
more than one individual that I contact you, Supervisor Schmitt, in this
matter. I am hoping that you could offer some guidance as I am perfectly
frustrated with the County's lack of attention to the matter and seemingly
indifferent attitude towards the condition of the Parkway roads and their
responsibility to provide SAFE roadways in the system.
I was incensed to learn the County budget has provided exactly 0% if it's
budget to maintaining the Parkway road system this year. I know that there are
inherent dangers in bicyle riding on public roads. I ride many miles on public
roads yearly. The condition of the Parkway and lack of action to repair it can
only be seen as negligent on part of the County. The Parkway has become a
serious hazard. It has proven to be a hazard to both my health and pocketbook.

>>>>>>>>>This is the comment I posted on the forum today <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Reading that the county has specifically dedicated ZERO dollars of the budget
the parkway maintenance is absoultely an insult to the taxpaying public.
I am steamed at the County. If they take no responsibilty for the conditions of
those public parkways, they should be liable for the result of accidents that
occur there due to their condition. This is a PARKWAY for goodness sake.
I ride bikes. Typically, as road bike riders, we point to hazards on the road
so the riders behind you can avoid them too. When entering the parkways,
especially off of Hansen golf course, we tell each other EVERY MAN FOR HIMSELF
- there are just too many potholes, ruts, cracks and ridges to call them all
out. It's pathetic.
I am an avid and experienced road biker who was physically injured in a crash
which was caused by hitting an unrepaired crack in the parkway west of swan
blvd. I was physically hurt and in pain for weeks. Skin is still growing back 6
weeks later and I now have visible scars. I'll spare you the photos. Broken
helmet $140(thanks goodness it did it's job) and damaged bike parts $200. My
very expensive and trustworthy bicycle was also damaged to the point the mfg'r
says i need to replace the frame as it is unfit and now unsafe for use due to
the crash. That'll cost over $1200 for the replacement frame alone.
I am super-frustrated by the County's inaction! It is shameful that I wiped out
due to the conditions there, but I can take the pain, and am healing. BUT, I
feel completely sorry for any unfortunate citizen that thinks it would be a
safe place to ride. It is a threat to cyclist's health. Glad I'm not some older
person who might not be able bounce back as well. That would be a truly
preventable tragedy.
The comment from poster 'swamp gas' is right. Unfortunately, my injuries are
not serious enough to pursue damages through legal channels, due to the costs,
but on principal alone I want to sue the county now.
Would an alderman or mayor with a strong voice have an opinion on allowing this
problem to continue to exist in their city?
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

CArcher_Email3013601

That was my public comment on the Forum.
I would like to be reimbursed by the County for the cost of parts to replace
the ones broken in the crash. I am hoping that you can help this be resolved in
a timely and effective manner. I would appreciate your feedback.
Ultimately, I'd like the Parkways to become a pleasant and safe place to enjoy
the outdoors and exercise in a great community. Right now, in my humble
opinion, they are shameful hazards.
with my best regards,
Rick Amen

Hiring process/corrective action 2007
Friday, July 06, 2007 9:22:39 AM

If we are going to try to manage the 2007 projected deficit without a full
blown hiring freeze, I think we need to tighten this up. In my view, the main
problem is that there are so many ECPs that are unclassified and never come to
DAS. I would also like to see the list of positions that require certs that we
don't see. As I review requests for fill, I also believe we need more
justification from the departments.
        If the position is an existing vacancy, how long has it been vacant?
        Is the position grant funded? It yes, title and term of grant.
        Is the position contingent upon the continuation of other outside
funding?
        Are budgeted funds sufficient to cover the cost of filling the position?
        If the position is new, how was it approved? _____ Annual budget
_____County Board resolution (attach)
        Justification for immediate hire:
         Include programmatic consequences if position is not immediately
filled.
         Public safety? Direct Patient Care
         Overtime generating positions (if not filled)
         Are the functions of the position related to a mandated function? If
yes, explain.
At a minimum, I think we should be seeing all ECP fills (classified and
unclassified) and I would like to see the list of certs we are not seeing.
As I review the corrective actions plans of the past, they have been
implemented when the projected deficits are in the $6-$10 million range. We
are obviously not at the point yet. I continue to believe that we can manage
the projected deficit with more critical review of requests to fill positions,
refined salary projections, review of operating capital spending and a process
to capture savings from capital bonded projects. I also think departments will
be willing to work with us if they know it is in an effort to avoid a hard
hiring freeze and other more dramatic corrective actions. I believe we can
implement the above administratively with notification to Board.
In any event, we need to tighten up on the hiring process. The exiting cert
form can be modified to include the above info or a new, simple form
"Justification for Hire" can be developed in short order.
Molly, lets set up meeting with HR on Monday AM to go over this. I will need
to inform the Exec of recommendations Monday afternoon.
Thanks.
Attached is the "cert form" I modified at Brown County.

        Re: Certification Requests






Molly:
Linda Miller in DHR is the person that processes all the certification requests
that come to DHR. She has the details of what comes to DAS and what doesn't.
These guidelines are set by DAS. This is my understanding of the certification
guidelines.
Positions in the unclassified service (80000 series title codes) do not get
sent to DAS for approval. This may or may not include positions in ECP. Not
all positions in ECP are in the unclassified service.   Positions in the
unclassified service do not receive an eligible list from DHR therefore a
certification request is not needed. IF DAS wants to review unclassified
positions, DAS should notify all department heads that they need to send a
certification request to DHR and DHR will send it up to DAS for approval. Once
reviewed, DAS would notify the department and DHR of the decision to allow or
not allow filling. DHR needs to involved in the process. If a position is not
approved for filling, DHR can stop the processing of the ETCR if one is
submitted.
Regarding positions in the classified service. DAS has given blanket authority
to approve certification requests of certain classifications without having a
review of DAS. Linda Miller has the listing of these positions. Otherwise,
any certification is set to DAS unless it is a current year create being filled
for the first time or a position that became vacant within 30 days after being
filled.
I strongly suggest contacting Linda Miller and Pat Wright to discuss the
specifics that DAS wants to do with certification approvals. I would like to
be included in any meeting. I will be back in the office Monday.

I'm trying to resolve what all Cindy approves.
What positions require a certified list for filling? All classified positions
including ECPs? And is her approval required for any position within the
classified service only? Are there unclassified that she approves? Are ECPs
allowed to be filled without her approval? I know that certain types of
positions are exempt....COs and some medical I beleive. Any info you can
provide would be great. Thanks, Molly

What is the maximum about of interest we can pay in 2007 from captured
savings? That is how much can we conceivably move to the contingency fund
assuming there are savings?

Pam:
We plan to respond to your request using our standardized, written format for
all projects as produced by our Expedition Cost and Schedule System on projects
for which AE&ES Division has signature authority. This report gives you a
complete fiscal picture for each of hundreds of projects whether the project is
complete, active, on hold or substantially complete. Each year we invest
substantial resources to maintain this data for project management.
Since the information fills a 3" - 3 ring binder, we will deliver a copy to Ms.
Koper instead of e-mail. Alternatively, I believe DAS does have on-line access
to the same Expedition software information
See the attached example. If this format or response methodology is not
acceptable please provide details on what format and/or specific projects you
require. If you do require this information in a different format, we will do

CArcher_Email3013606

our best to deliver it ASAP. Unfortunately we do not have the resources at
this time to undertake such a task in the time frame proposed.
Please advise

The current financial projections for 2007 indicate that the County could end the year with a slight deficit. The minor nature of the
deficit will not require that we initiate a formal tax levy savings program for each department. In lieu of a savings plan, we are asking
departments to thoroughly examine certain account groups to determine what savings have already been achieved for the year 2007,
and what additional savings will be achieved for the year, and notify us of those savings.
In looking at the recent history of departmental surpluses, we have noticed that savings have generally been achieved in wages and
capital outlay. When preparing the 2007-second quarter fiscal projections, we would like departments to analyze their personnel
services expense in account group 5100 and operations capital outlay appropriations in account group 8500.
If you have determined that you have achieved savings in either of these areas, we would like you to report these savings to us. You
may not have achieved savings at present, but are projecting savings by the end of the year. If you believe you will achieve savings by
the end of the year please identify those savings to us.
Personnel Services Expense – Account Group 5100
A. Determine the projected fiscal savings that will be achieved for 2007 in personnel services.
1. The County has charged 12 pay periods to the 2007 financials through June. This means that there are still 14 pay periods that
will be charged for 2007, including the pay period that ends on December 29, 2007.
2. All budget entries have been made to amend departmental budgets for the wage increase for the 2007 AFSCME – DC-48
contract and non-represented employee agreement.
3. Actual costs reflect the retro settlement with DC-48 for 2006. An accrual was made at the end of 2006, and reversed in 2007
to recognize the cost of the labor settlement with AFSCME DC-48.
B. Determine the number of actual positions currently filled in 2007, as compared to the number of budgeted positions. Project
where these positions will be by the end of 2007. We are interested in your current number of vacancies against budget, and if you
have plans to fill all of those positions.

funds that were received in 2007 from 2006. List those projects here, plus list the projects that are still to be completed. For any

Updated 2007 Fiscal Report - First Quarter

On June 5, 2007, the Department of Administrative Services had projected Milwaukee County’s
2007 fiscal status based on results as of April 30, 2007 as a projected deficit of ($3,402,000).
Since that date, the Department of Administrative Services has been made aware of changes in
certain department’s fiscal status for 2007. Based on these revised estimates, the projected
deficit for Milwaukee County for 2007 is increasing to ($4,200,000). This is an increase of
$798,000 for the projection.
The deficit is increasing due to changes in the Register of Deeds, the House of Correction, The
DHHS – Behavioral Health Division, and DHHS.
• The Register of Deeds is submitting a report to the Finance and Audit committee
projecting a revenue deficit of $977,000. This is an increase in their projected deficit of
$868,000. The deficit in revenues is due to reduced funds derived from real estate fees.
•

The House of Correction is still projected to breakeven for the year, but the previously
projected surplus of $425,000 may be eliminated due to increased salary and overtime
costs in the department. This is a projection by the Department of Administrative
Services.

•

The DHHS – Behavioral Health Division’s deficit is increasing for 2007 from $2,291,000
to $3,040,000. The deficit increase is due to increased expenditures for personnel,
commodities and services for $340,000 and the reduction in 2007 revenue for Medicaid
cost reimbursement of $409,000. Medicaid cost reimbursement was determined to be a
2006 revenue, and was recognized in 2006, which reduced the projected funding for
2007.

•

The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has reevaluated its fiscal
position for 2007 and is now projecting a surplus of $1,010,000. The increase in the
surplus is due to additional prior year revenue of $917,000, savings in expenditures of
$557,000 offset by additional losses in Youth Aids revenue of $464,000. Total prior year
revenue is expected to be $3.4 million over budget for 2007. This surplus in prior year
revenue will be offset by the loss in Youth Aids revenue of $3.1 million due to higher
numbers of youth in state correction programs.

Updated First Quarter Fiscal Report for 2007
Department of Administrative Services

Page 2
June 30, 2007

In the June 2007 County Board cycle the County Board approved the transfer of $2,000,000 to
the Debt Service Reserve from the 2006 surplus. This transfer provides funds that could be used
in 2007 to offset the projected deficit. Additional funds may also be available in salary savings
in departments that have not been reported to the Department of Administrative Services. This is
based on fewer positions being filled than budgeted, however, these savings may be offset by
overtime costs in departments.
Based on a review of carryovers, the Department of Administrative Services is projecting the
Economic and Community Development Division deficit to be $950,000 for 2007. A report was
submitted after the June 2007 Finance and Audit Committee to the County Executive and the
County Board Chairman regarding the status of the Economic and Community Development
Division (ECD Division). This report indicated that the ECD Division was projecting a deficit of
$1.7 million for 2007. The change in the projected deficit to $950,000 is based on a review of
Housing carryovers for the ECD Division. In a separate report to the Chairman of the Finance
and Audit Committee, the Department of Administrative Services is projecting that the
carryovers for 2006 to 2007 have been overstated by $800,000. This information is preliminary,
and investigations are continuing regarding the status of carryovers, including reconciling to
subsidiary ledgers. Since the 2006 books are closed this carryover will savings will fall to 2007
financials. The carryover adjustment of $0.8 million would reduce the projected deficit from
$1.7 million to $950,000.
The Department of Administrative Services will monitor the countywide financial position. Any
changes to the fiscal status will be reported to this committee in the next monthly cycle.
Committee Action: This is an informational report only. This report should be referred to and
reviewed by the Finance and Audit Committee.

Health Care Cost Update for 2006 and 2007 – June 2007 Report

POLICY
At the request of the Finance & Audit Committee, the Department of Administrative Services is
reporting on the final actual health insurance expenditures for 2006 and the projected health
expenditures for 2007. This report has been requested to better track the County’s progress
toward meeting 2006 and 2007 budgeted expenditures for health insurance.
BACKGROUND
2006 Health Care Costs:
For 2006, the County budgeted approximately $117 million in expenditure authority to be paid to
Wisconsin Physicians Service Insurance Corporation (WPS) utilizing a “fully-insured” model for
health insurance. These expenditures for health insurance covered all eligible active employees,
retirees and their dependents.
The 2006 budget also assumed the County would realize $10.2 million in cost-savings, which
would have reduced the projected health insurance expenditures to $106.8 million.
These savings were expected due to the implementation of co-payments, new prescription drug
pricing structures and increases in employee contributions. The anticipated savings were
expected to begin accruing January 1, 2006, with the exception of changes in employee
contributions, which took effect on July 1, 2006.
Since the beginning of 2006, the County Board Finance and Audit Committee has requested and
received monthly updates on the status of the County’s health care budget. DAS originally
estimated that the health care budget would realize a deficit of approximately $7.0 million under
the fully-insured plan, based on figures from February through September of 2006.
In September 2006, Milwaukee County converted its health insurance coverage from a fullyinsured model to a self-insured model. The rationale for this change was the expectation that the
costs of the self-insured plan would be lower than continuing with the fully-insured contract for
the remainder of the four-year contract with WPS. The cost differential was estimated at $18.7
million (nominal dollars) over the four years of the contract in the fiscal note provided in
September 2006.

CArcher_Email3013633

Department of Administrative Services
Health Cost Update for 2006 and 2007 – June 2007 Report

June 26, 2007
Page 2

In December 2006, DAS reported that the health care budget would realize a deficit of $10.7
million, under the self-insured model. After updated medical cost reports were received in
January 2007, the deficit was reduced to $8.5 million. In March 2007 the projected 2006
health care deficit was adjusted to $8.3 million.
2007 Health Costs
A preliminary review of 2007 enrollments indicates that the County is currently below budgeted
enrollments for 2007 by 89 active enrollees and 164 retired enrollees. The total number of active
enrollments is 4,531. The total number of retired enrollments is 5,968. Review of the open
enrollment in November 2006 found that there were no major changes or shifts between health
plans by employees or retirees. The potential savings to the County, if the number of enrollments
stays at this reduced level, could be $2.5 million. Since the County is self-insured these savings
are not guaranteed and this estimate is simply based on an average rate times the number of
participants.
An additional open enrollment was conducted for AFSCME DC-48 and Non-represented
employees in February 2007. The February 2007 open enrollment was the result of changes in
employee premium contributions adopted in January 2007 for these two groups of employees.
An analysis of the February 2007 open enrollment found that less than 100 people changed their
health plan choice. Employees who did change their health plan choice moved from the
Statewide Preferred Provider Plan (Statewide PPO) to other plan choices including a Patient
Choice PPO and HMO and the Wheaton Franciscan HMO. The migration appears to be the result
of higher premium contribution rates for the Statewide PPO plan. The Statewide PPO has the
highest employee premium contribution, under the new contract, of $100 per single plan members
and $200 per family plan members. The potential savings to the County for this change in
enrollments is $931,000, which would be offset by a loss in employee premium contributions of
$92,000. Since the County is self-insured these savings are not guaranteed and this estimate is
simply based on an average rate times the number of participants.
The current budget for County-wide health care costs is $129.5 million. In the AFSCME DC-48
contract fiscal note, the Department of Administrative Services was projecting a savings of $2.5
million for the health care changes that were in the then proposed DC-48 contract. A fund
transfer was made to reduce the health care budget to $127.0 million. No fund transfers are
proposed to transfer savings due to lower enrollments or due to shifts in enrollments, since the
County is self-insured for health care.
CURRENT STATUS
2006 Status:
The estimate of the health care shortfall is being updated to a deficit of $7.7 million. This deficit
consists of actual 2006 costs of $113,900,000 for employee and retiree health insurance, and
budgeted costs of $106,226,000. The budgeted costs are a combination of health insurance
budgeted costs in org unit 1950 - Fringe Benefits of $116,426,000, offset by projected savings in

CArcher_Email3013634

Department of Administrative Services
Health Cost Update for 2006 and 2007 – June 2007 Report

Page 3

org unit 1972 – Wage and Benefits Supplemental of $10,200,000. A post close entry was made to
reduce costs by $600,000 based on a continuing evaluation of 2006 costs.
We estimated the 2006 health care cost based on total payments made to WPS through March
2007. We are continuing to monitor the estimate of payments to see if our projections are still
holding for 2006. This department is comfortable with its closing projection for 2006.
In previous months, we have provided you with an estimate of the cost of the County switching
from a fully insured health plan to a self – insured health plan. The additional cost to the County
of switching to a self-insured health plan in 2006 was $1.1 million. Previous estimates were as
high as $3 million for the cost of this switch in 2006.
Total fringe benefit revenues and costs for 2006, which includes health care, dental care, pension,
life insurance and professional services, is projected to be $152,242,000. The budget for 2006
fringe benefit costs, net of the budgeted savings in org unit 1972 of $10,200,000, is $143,823,000.
Total fringe benefits, including health care costs, would be in deficit by $8.4 million for 2006.
2007 Status:
The County is monitoring health costs for 2007 and is projecting health savings of $3.9 million.
These savings are based on a health budget for 2007 of $127.0 million and projected health costs
of $123.1 million.
The projection of health costs for 2007 is based on costs incurred by the self-insured health plan
for the past 17 months, and then annualizing these costs for 2007. The savings for 2007 have
fluctuated from month to month based on this monitoring methodology. This is to be expected.
We have received a first quarter 2007 report from Medco Health Solutions on the prescription
drug costs of Milwaukee County. This report compared drug costs between the first quarter of
2006 to the first quarter of 2007. Drug costs have increased by $752,000 over the comparable
period. This is an increase of 13.2% in per member per month costs. The increase in per member
per month costs is due to an increase in utilization, use of higher costing drugs, inflation, and a
decrease in the dollars provided through member cost sharing. Overall cost sharing for the first
quarter was 16.5% of gross prescription costs. Mail order usage for the first quarter of 2007 was
30.9% of total prescription usage, based on the number of days of prescription therapy. Retail
usage was 69.1% of total prescription usage for the same period. The data seems to indicate that
over 90% of the prescriptions filled on mail order were for maintenance drugs. Increases usage of
mail order prescriptions could occur, since over 70% of retail prescriptions were for maintenance
drugs. Maintenance drugs are the intended usage of a mail order drug system, which tends to
have lower costs for drugs, and reduced dispensing fees.

The current financial projections for 2007 indicate that the County could end the year with a slight deficit. The minor nature of the
deficit will not require that we initiate a formal tax levy savings program for each department. In lieu of a savings plan, we are asking
departments to thoroughly examine certain account groups to determine what savings have already been achieved for the year 2007,
and what additional savings will be achieved for the year, and notify us of those savings.
In looking at the recent history of departmental surpluses, we have noticed that savings have generally been achieved in wages and
capital outlay. When preparing the 2007-second quarter fiscal projections, we would like departments to analyze their personnel
services expense in account group 5100 and operations capital outlay appropriations in account group 8500.
If you have determined that you have achieved savings in either of these areas, we would like you to report these savings to us. You
may not have achieved savings at present, but are projecting savings by the end of the year. If you believe you will achieve savings by
the end of the year please identify those savings to us.
Personnel Services Expense – Account Group 5100
A. Determine the projected fiscal savings that will be achieved for 2007 in personnel services.
1. The County has charged 12 pay periods to the 2007 financials through June. This means that there are still 14 pay periods that
will be charged for 2007, including the pay period that ends on December 29, 2007.
2. All budget entries have been made to amend departmental budgets for the wage increase for the 2007 AFSCME – DC-48
contract and non-represented employee agreement.
3. Actual costs reflect the retro settlement with DC-48 for 2006. An accrual was made at the end of 2006, and reversed in 2007
to recognize the cost of the labor settlement with AFSCME DC-48.
B. Determine the number of actual positions currently filled in 2007, as compared to the number of budgeted positions. Project
where these positions will be by the end of 2007. We are interested in your current number of vacancies against budget, and if you
have plans to fill all of those positions.

D. If you have budgeted capital outlay funds in your operating orgs (account group 8500), determine the projects that have either
been encumbered or have been purchased during 2007. This would include both budgeted funds for 2007, and any carryover
funds that were received in 2007 from 2006. List those projects here, plus list the projects that are still to be completed. For any
open projects, please provide reasons why those funds need to be expended.

Re: Tentative Agenda for Monday"s DAS Update
Sunday, July 08, 2007 10:35:15 AM
High

Rob, Molly and I met on Friday and discussed our briefing strategy and the
timeliness for the Budget process. I also got a copy of SW calendar and while
there were tentative notations about budget briefings and public hearings, no
time has actually been blocked off. We need to discuss the timeliness with
Waker and begin working with Ed and Dorothy to block times off on Scotts
calendar. In addition, we need guidance on a couple of item. For example,
Amendt use to meet with each Department head after the decisions were made and
walk them through the decisions (in great detail). I am not recommending this
level of detail, but we need to know from Scott if we need to build in time for
him to meet with each (or selected) department heads to tell them of the
decisions and get their feedback.

In addition, we need to get directions out to departments regarding our
expectations of them in preparing and attending public hearings. Ed is getting
me a copy of what we used last year in the public hearings so we can use it as
a guide. These must get scheduled and we must get department heads working on
this. Is the purpose of the public hearing to get feedback on what the
department's are requesting or what the Executive is proposing?? I am hoping
it is based off of department request. The problem last year was that the
hearings happened so late in the process that it hampered the ability of the
Executive to make changes due to the timing and the need to find more cuts so
he could restore things he wanted to restore as a result of the hearings.

Molly and I have agreed that our approach is to go back to a briefing document
format (as opposed to just papers on selected items). The document will be
divided into major and minor items with little or no discussion with the Exec
on the minor items unless he has questions. The briefing documents will be
supplemented with handouts as necessary and will include options when
appropriate.

Molly, after we meet with HR on Monday AM and after you prepare the schedule as
we discussed, we need to get together and discuss those things we need
decisions on from the CEX today. Ed, please remember to look at what we used
last year for the public hearings and get that to me as soon as you can on
Monday.

Molly and I will meet with analysts on Tuesday to give them guidance and
establish a order (in terms of what goes first) so we can slot them into SW
calendar. For now, however, we need to actually schedule blocks of time on his
calendar for briefings and blocks of time for the public hearings.

Molly, you should plan on attending the 4:00 status meeting with Walker.

We should talk about this this morning. The condition of Parks roadways is
going to start to become a big issue with the Board, and while I recognize we
don't have the resources, we at least need to start considering if there are
any options and how to address this in 2008.

Tosa parkway conditions and resulting crash

Hello Luigi,
Rick Amen writing. I currently reside on the eastern side of Tosa in the 19th
district, Pabst Park Neighborhood, and havre been since 2002. I grew up in West
Allis.
I am hoping to recover damages from the County for my personal losses due to a
bike crash I suffered while riding on the parkway in Tosa, by Hansen gold
course on April 28th, 2006.
I posted a comment on the Wauwatosanow.com message board where a discussion of
the Parkway system's deteriorating condition is ongoing. It was recommended by
more than one individual that I contact you, Supervisor Schmitt, in this
matter. I am hoping that you could offer some guidance as I am perfectly
frustrated with the County's lack of attention to the matter and seemingly
indifferent attitude towards the condition of the Parkway roads and their
responsibility to provide SAFE roadways in the system.
I was incensed to learn the County budget has provided exactly 0% if it's
budget to maintaining the Parkway road system this year. I know that there are
inherent dangers in bicyle riding on public roads. I ride many miles on public
roads yearly. The condition of the Parkway and lack of action to repair it can
only be seen as negligent on part of the County. The Parkway has become a
serious hazard. It has proven to be a hazard to both my health and pocketbook.

>>>>>>>>>This is the comment I posted on the forum today <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Reading that the county has specifically dedicated ZERO dollars of the budget
the parkway maintenance is absoultely an insult to the taxpaying public.
I am steamed at the County. If they take no responsibilty for the conditions of
those public parkways, they should be liable for the result of accidents that
occur there due to their condition. This is a PARKWAY for goodness sake.
I ride bikes. Typically, as road bike riders, we point to hazards on the road
so the riders behind you can avoid them too. When entering the parkways,
especially off of Hansen golf course, we tell each other EVERY MAN FOR HIMSELF
- there are just too many potholes, ruts, cracks and ridges to call them all
out. It's pathetic.
I am an avid and experienced road biker who was physically injured in a crash
which was caused by hitting an unrepaired crack in the parkway west of swan
CArcher_Email3013652

blvd. I was physically hurt and in pain for weeks. Skin is still growing back 6
weeks later and I now have visible scars. I'll spare you the photos. Broken
helmet $140(thanks goodness it did it's job) and damaged bike parts $200. My
very expensive and trustworthy bicycle was also damaged to the point the mfg'r
says i need to replace the frame as it is unfit and now unsafe for use due to
the crash. That'll cost over $1200 for the replacement frame alone.
I am super-frustrated by the County's inaction! It is shameful that I wiped out
due to the conditions there, but I can take the pain, and am healing. BUT, I
feel completely sorry for any unfortunate citizen that thinks it would be a
safe place to ride. It is a threat to cyclist's health. Glad I'm not some older
person who might not be able bounce back as well. That would be a truly
preventable tragedy.
The comment from poster 'swamp gas' is right. Unfortunately, my injuries are
not serious enough to pursue damages through legal channels, due to the costs,
but on principal alone I want to sue the county now.
Would an alderman or mayor with a strong voice have an opinion on allowing this
problem to continue to exist in their city?
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
That was my public comment on the Forum.
I would like to be reimbursed by the County for the cost of parts to replace
the ones broken in the crash. I am hoping that you can help this be resolved in
a timely and effective manner. I would appreciate your feedback.
Ultimately, I'd like the Parkways to become a pleasant and safe place to enjoy
the outdoors and exercise in a great community. Right now, in my humble
opinion, they are shameful hazards.
with my best regards,
Rick Amen

Larry,
Please be aware that while we have say so on County trunks, mowing on
State Trunks such as Appleton Ave. is dictated by WISDOT. We work at their
direction and get reimbursed accordingly. I continue to push them to allow us
to stay on top of their medians. Also, please keep in mind that County Trunks
medians are mowed by the Parks department not Highway. We are currently
working with Parks and DAS to see if these services can be returned to their
appropriate departments.

George,
Sup. Quindel asked me to let you know that once again he is hearing concerns
from constituents about the quantity and quality of mowing on medians. This
includes comments about not enough trimming around poles and also that paper -which could be quickly picked up before mowing -- gets shredded and strewn
around. Any attention you can devote to this issue would be appreciated.

Chad and Vanessa need to work togheter and get to the bottom of this dispute
and find options for ensuring that the service gets done. I want to know what
the sitatuation is now in terms of mowing and parkways, what it was in the past
and options for correcting it. This is insane that we have two departments
that can't come togheter and get a job done. We will do it for them in the
2008 budget. This is he kind of stuff the public could care less about. They
want it taken care of...period.

Hi Cindy,
     Attached is a narrative that I've asked Highay staff to put together. It
outlines the process that was used during the merger to reassign the
responsibilities for mowing of medians, and the maintenance and plowing of
Parks roads. I firmly believe it is in everyone's best interest to return
these duties to the pre-merger status. Please let us know if you'd like to sit
and discuss. Also, keep in mind, that Supervisor Devine has also mentioned
that he is interested in moving ahead with a resolution to do so. Please let me
know.

Highway & Parks Merger – Maintenance Costs and Revenue Associated with Park
Road Maintenance and CTH Mowing
Expenditure Authority - Personnel
In the 2004 Adopted Budget Eight Park Maintenance Worker II positions were
transferred to Highway with a cost, including Social Security, of $316,480 and an
additional lump sum increase of $338,418, which prohibited Highway from filling any
positions. Highway chose not to fill any of these positions in order to meet the vacancy
and turnover. The Park Maintenance positions could only have been used on County
Parkways and Park Roads. No tax levy was allocated to fill these positions.
Subsequently the 8 Park Maintenance Worker positions were reclassified as 7 Highway
Maintenance Workers but continued to be included in the lump sum adjustment. The 7
Highway Maintenance Worker positions were abolished in 2006, with a corresponding
decrease in the lump sum adjustment. Highway performed the Park road maintenance
with existing Highway staff, which has decreased since 2004.
Expenditure Authority - General
In the March 2004 fund transfer $162,225 of expenditure authority related to Park
Maintenance was transferred to Highway. There was no additional expenditure authority
added to the Highway Maintenance operating budget. No operating or major
maintenance funding was ever included in the Highway Maintenance budget for park
roads due to budget constraints.
Equipment
In the 2004 budget Highway was initially assigned four additional vehicles. Due to the
Fleet reduction in 2005, these vehicles went to auction and were not replaced. After the
Fleet reduction Highway was assigned one vehicle (106-378) to maintain Park roads and
Parkways. Parks received a newer truck from GMIA to maintain Lincoln Memorial
Drive. When maintenance of Lincoln Memorial Drive was transferred from Parks to
Highway, Parks retained the truck.
Revenue
In the 2004 Adopted budget $174,033 of General Transportation Aids (GTA) funding
was transferred to Highway from Parks for Park road maintenance. Since less county
funding has been allocated to County Trunk Highways and Park Roads each year, the
amount of GTA revenue has decreased accordingly. The amount attributable to the
Parkways and Park Roads is as follows.
2004 Amount $174,033
2008 Estimated amount $163,662
There was no additional revenue added to the Highway Maintenance budget.
Parkway Costs
No additional Highway staff was added to the workforce to maintain the County
Parkways. County Parkway cost is completely tax levy. Due to budget constraints, major
maintenance funding for Parkways has been denied in the budget process.
2004 Costs $217,832
2005 Costs $194,179
2006 Costs $220,997

I understand from talking to James that we got an unusually high number of

streamling the review process. I cannot afford to have you gone all week
working on this. Is there anyway PFM or Bond counsel can assit in the first

in anyway? Lets talk about this on Monday.

Cindy,
     This is a fairly complex process, while this amount has been "earmarked"
for Milw. Cnty, the actually amount received is based on the adopted transit
budget. We then submit a grant request at which time the formula numbers are
compiled and calculated. A place holder for this money is included in the 2007
budget. I'll have staff draft up a quick info sheet outlining the process and
send it to you.

Hello to allJust a brief update on the status of increased funding for transit at the State
level. The 2.5% reinstated by Senator Decker and the extra funding for
Milwaukee and other transit systems in the State put forward by Senator Taylor
will be a big help, if they make it into the final budget. Kelly and Roy have
done a great job and Gary and WURTA are working hard as well. It will still be
an uphill battle from this point. Thanks for all your support on this issue.
Please continue to use your contacts to move these issues forward. We will be
working on this as well. Anita

Good morning Madame Chair;
Please pass this brief memo around to our WURTA members and friends
of transit.
1. Senator Russ Decker was successful in adding the extra .5% to the
already approved 2% annual increase to all systems.
2. Senator Lena Taylor was successful in securing an additional $4
Million to Tier A-1 (Milwaukee) and additional $2 Million to split
proportionately among the remaining tiers beginning on July 1,
2008. I am including Rod Clark on this message, and he will be able
to tell folks what this would mean to each system in the days ahead.
This increase will apply to the shared ride systems in Tier C as well.

CArcher_Email3013664

3. Elderly and disabled transportation aids also will receive a 2.5%
increase in each year of the budget cycle. This is welcome news to
the 85.21 program operators.
4. The Governor has proposed a Milwaukee to Madison passenger rail
route and included bonding authority to begin the process. Gwen, you
will love this and of course be able to maintain the "transit
Goddess" title for many years. The Senate caucus modified the
proposal to specify that the bonds may be used for improvements to
establish rail service between Madison and Eau Claire!
5. Senator John Lehman was successful in adding the KRM funding
authorization language (car rental fees). He also added additional
language to allow the Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Transit
Authority the ability to operate all aspects of a transit system and
gave them additional bonding authority. I will forward more details
in the days ahead.
I would like to thank everyone for the calls and letters sent to
their legislative representatives. Together we have achieved some
major financial improvements
I would like to suggest a meeting of WURTA during the week of July
9th to go over the situation and discuss some plans for dealing with
the Conference Committee. We would be able to have some print outs
of the effects of all this legislative action.
I will be available by cell today at 608-219-5237. Full Senate
action will start in a few hours.
Thanks.
Gary.

Do we have anything budgeted for parkways? Or is there anything in Parks that
can be reallocated to fix Parkways?

We should talk about this this morning. The condition of Parks roadways is
going to start to become a big issue with the Board, and while I recognize we
don't have the resources, we at least need to start considering if there are
any options and how to address this in 2008.

        Tosa parkway conditions and resulting crash





Hello Luigi,

Rick Amen writing. I currently reside on the eastern side of Tosa in the 19th
district, Pabst Park Neighborhood, and havre been since 2002. I grew up in West
Allis.

I am hoping to recover damages from the County for my personal losses due to a
bike crash I suffered while riding on the parkway in Tosa, by Hansen gold
course on April 28th, 2006.

I posted a comment on the Wauwatosanow.com message board where a discussion of
the Parkway system's deteriorating condition is ongoing. It was recommended by
more than one individual that I contact you, Supervisor Schmitt, in this
matter. I am hoping that you could offer some guidance as I am perfectly
frustrated with the County's lack of attention to the matter and seemingly
indifferent attitude towards the condition of the Parkway roads and their
responsibility to provide SAFE roadways in the system.

I was incensed to learn the County budget has provided exactly 0% if it's
budget to maintaining the Parkway road system this year. I know that there are
inherent dangers in bicyle riding on public roads. I ride many miles on public
roads yearly. The condition of the Parkway and lack of action to repair it can
only be seen as negligent on part of the County. The Parkway has become a
serious hazard. It has proven to be a hazard to both my health and pocketbook.

>>>>>>>>>This is the comment I posted on the forum today <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Reading that the county has specifically dedicated ZERO dollars of the budget
the parkway maintenance is absoultely an insult to the taxpaying public.
I am steamed at the County. If they take no responsibilty for the conditions of
those public parkways, they should be liable for the result of accidents that
occur there due to their condition. This is a PARKWAY for goodness sake.
I ride bikes. Typically, as road bike riders, we point to hazards on the road
so the riders behind you can avoid them too. When entering the parkways,
especially off of Hansen golf course, we tell each other EVERY MAN FOR HIMSELF
- there are just too many potholes, ruts, cracks and ridges to call them all
out. It's pathetic.

CArcher_Email3013669

I am an avid and experienced road biker who was physically injured in a crash
which was caused by hitting an unrepaired crack in the parkway west of swan
blvd. I was physically hurt and in pain for weeks. Skin is still growing back 6
weeks later and I now have visible scars. I'll spare you the photos. Broken
helmet $140(thanks goodness it did it's job) and damaged bike parts $200. My
very expensive and trustworthy bicycle was also damaged to the point the mfg'r
says i need to replace the frame as it is unfit and now unsafe for use due to
the crash. That'll cost over $1200 for the replacement frame alone.
I am super-frustrated by the County's inaction! It is shameful that I wiped out
due to the conditions there, but I can take the pain, and am healing. BUT, I
feel completely sorry for any unfortunate citizen that thinks it would be a
safe place to ride. It is a threat to cyclist's health. Glad I'm not some older
person who might not be able bounce back as well. That would be a truly
preventable tragedy.
The comment from poster 'swamp gas' is right. Unfortunately, my injuries are
not serious enough to pursue damages through legal channels, due to the costs,
but on principal alone I want to sue the county now.
Would an alderman or mayor with a strong voice have an opinion on allowing this
problem to continue to exist in their city?
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

That was my public comment on the Forum.

I would like to be reimbursed by the County for the cost of parts to replace
the ones broken in the crash. I am hoping that you can help this be resolved in
a timely and effective manner. I would appreciate your feedback.

Ultimately, I'd like the Parkways to become a pleasant and safe place to enjoy
the outdoors and exercise in a great community. Right now, in my humble
opinion, they are shameful hazards.

with my best regards,
Rick Amen

Another item I noticed in the past that was implemented to save $ was a freeze
on all advancements within the pay range and reallocation requests. Given the
Board has already raised issue with this process, we may want to revist this as

Cindy,
Attached is the latest (and hopefully final) draft of the lease agreement
between Milwaukee County and the Friends of Hoyt Park and Pool. Supervisor De
Bruin would like to make sure you are satisfied with the reference to the
County's due diligence requirements as documented in Section 3 - Contingencies
on page 2 of the lease. She would appreciate it if you could please provide
your response to me prior to the July 10th Parks Committee meeting.
Thank you.

Dennis, All
Here's my current re-edit of the Hoyt Pool Lease, in both redline and clean
format.
A couple drafting notes:
"Property" and "Premises" got too confusing; it's all only just "Property" now.
The contingency language (paragraph 3) was tightened up with respect to due
diligence
The endowment provision (paragraph 4b) has been simplified, hopefully to
everyone's satisfaction
An anti-discrim provision was added as paragraph 27c
The audit provision (paragraph 28j) was expanded slightly
A few typos were spotted and corrected - Dennis, did I catch all that you
mentioned in your June 15 e-mail?
Hopefully, we can call this a wrap? We've got until tomorrow noon to fine tune
it, if needs be, after which we will effectively be out of time...
John

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
Milwaukee County is the owner of Hoyt Park, located adjacent to the
Menomonee River in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin. Hoyt Park was deeded by the City of
Wauwatosa to Milwaukee County in 1937 with the understanding that a swimming
pool would be constructed and maintained at that location. Milwaukee County
constructed Hoyt Park Pool and Bathhouse, which are located in the Park but have
not been operable since 2002. Friends of Hoyt Park, the predecessor of FRIENDS,
was formed as a grassroots citizens organization in February 2006, and was
established in April 2006 as a unit of The Park People. FRIENDS was incorporated
as a Wisconsin non-stock corporation on July 14, 2006 for the purposes of raising
funds, constructing, endowing, maintaining and operating a multi-generational,
family-oriented aquatic pool and community meeting facility and Related Facilities
at Hoyt Park for use by all Milwaukee County residents, and by visitors to
Milwaukee County. FRIENDS’ proposed “Related Facilities” at Hoyt Park include a
coffee shop, a concessions stand, and similar facilities to support the Pool’s overall
operation, which may also include the renovation of the existing Hoyt Park
Bathhouse for such uses. Pursuant to Adopted County Board Resolution (County
Board File No. 06-_______, adopted ____________, 2007) Milwaukee County has
agreed, subject to contingency, to lease the site of the existing but inoperable Hoyt
Park Pool and Bathhouse to FRIENDS for these purposes.

The foregoing rent shall be payable in advance for all years of the current

in paragraph 9 (b) hereof.

consideration, Lessee agrees to augment the Fund by depositing revenues
resulting from its operation (excess of revenues over expenses and depreciation) of
the Property and the interest accrued on any balance invested into the Fund.
Fund is to be used as follows:
• Major maintenance, repair and replacement to assure long-term major
maintenance, upkeep, repair, and replacement of the Property and the
improvements to be constructed on the Property.
• Operational expenses to cover potential future operating shortfalls, to
assure long-term continued operation of the Pool for community use, and,
for safety and security purposes.
• Additional improvements or non-routine maintenance to the leased
Property as may be agreed upon by Lessee and Lessor
All payments and disbursements shall require approval of the Friends of Hoyt
Park and Pool’s board of directors and that of an established Endowment Fund
Sub-Committee of said board. The Endowment Sub-Committee comprised of
representatives from the Friends board of directors and such person as the
Milwaukee County Director of Administrative Services shall designate, and

the Fund shall include the establishment of an interest bearing account(s),
changing investment strategies, monitoring account activity, and providing
joint approval of all payments from account assets. Lessee shall provide Lessor
with biannual reports prepared by independent auditors relating to Endowment
Fund activities, including funds received, monies spent, and any long-term
obligations.
Lessee shall establish an Endowment Fund for maintenance and operation of the
Premises, which shall total one million dollars when the Pool and associated facilities
have been constructed and are ready for operation. The amount of said fund at the
time the Pool and associated facilities begin operation shall be designated the Initial
Endowment. As additional consideration, Lessee agrees to augment the Initial
Endowment by using revenues resulting from its operation of the Property as
follows: income from Lessee’s operation of the Property (excess of revenues over
expenses and depreciation) shall be utilized by Lessee first, for augmenting the
Initial Endowment maintained by Lessee with deposits into a subaccount of the
Endowment Fund for major maintenance, repair and replacement to assure longterm major maintenance, upkeep, repair, and replacement (individually
exceeding $3,000 in cost, adjusted for inflation) of the Property and the
improvements to be constructed on the Property; second, for augmenting the
Initial Endowment maintained by Lessee with deposits into a subaccount of the
Endowment Fund for operational expenses to cover potential future operating
shortfalls, to assure long-term continued operation of the Pool for community use,
and, for safety and security purposes; third, for establishing and augmenting a
non-endowment separate account maintained by Lessee to fund such additional
improvements to the leased Property as may be agreed upon by Lessee and
Lessor; and fourth, for establishing and augmenting a separate non-endowment
account maintained by Lessee to fund improvement or maintenance or operation
of other areas of Hoyt Park, outside of the leased Property, as may be agreed upon
by Lessee and Lessor. Payments and disbursements from the principal of the
Initial Endowment shall require joint approval of the Lessor and Lessee; payments
and disbursements from interest or earnings on the principal, or from funds
which have been deposited into the Endowment Fund in addition to the Initial
Endowment do not require Lessor’s approval. Any payments and disbursements
from the Endowment Fund shall require approval of Lessee’s Board of Directors.
Lessor’s approval of disbursements from the principal shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed, and Lessor’s failure to respond within 10 business days to a
written or electronic request by Lessee for approval of a payment or disbursement
from the Endowment Fund shall constitute approval, if, in such written or
electronic request, Lessee shall have notified Lessor of the time constraint. Lessor
may request and Lessee shall not unreasonably refuse a reasonable extension of
time within which to respond if needed. It is understood that circumstances
requiring an emergency purchase and payment from the Endowment Fund could
arise, under which an unreasonable delay in responding to Lessee’s request for
approval could be considerably shorter than 10 business days, and Lessee will so
advise Lessor. Revenues from Lessee’s operation of this Project shall not be
disbursed by Lessee for the third or fourth categories (to fund additional

and operate an aquatic pool and Related Facilities at Hoyt Park, including a
concessions stand, and similar facilities to support the Pool’s overall operation

written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, Lessee
may use the Property for related ancillary functions such as offices, meeting
space, gift shop, food service, restrooms, performance spaces, and other lawful

purpose of increasing public access to the Property and the surrounding Park.

shall be developed and landscaped in a manner that will enhance public access to
and enjoyment of the adjacent areas of Hoyt Park and promote park and open
space uses. Approval in writing must be obtained from the Department of Parks,
Recreation and Culture for any naming privileges sought in relation to the pool,
pool components, coffee shop, casual restaurant or related facilities, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except that the names of
individuals or family names or the names of foundations do not require such
approval. Lessor’s failure to respond within 10 business days to a written or
electronic request by Lessee for approval of a naming privilege shall constitute
approval, if, in such written or electronic request, Lessee shall have notified
Lessor of the time constraint. Lessor may request and Lessee shall not
unreasonably refuse a reasonable extension of time within which to respond if
needed.
(b) Public Access and Use of Property. Lessee understands that the Property
exterior to the buildings and Pool area is a public park and is to remain open and
accessible to the public. The entire site surrounding the Property shall remain

respect to damage or destruction to the improvements owned or constructed by Lessee
on the Property, and all insurance proceeds relating to Lessee's futures, equipment,
and other personal property, to the extent such things are necessary and
appropriate for the continued operation of the leased property. If Lessee does not
elect to terminate the Lease or if the damage or destruction to the Property does not
render the remaining portion thereof unsuitable for the continued conduct of Lessee's
activities thereon, then the Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and Lessee
shall, in accordance with the provisions set forth in Paragraphs 9 and 14 hereof,
promptly commence and pursue diligently to completion whatever repairs to the
Property are necessary to restore the Property to the condition the same were in prior

relating to the casualty. All such repairs shall be performed promptly and in a good
and workmanlike manner in accordance with all statutes, laws, ordinances, rules and
regulations of any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Property.
Commencing on the date of such damage or destruction and continuing during the
period in which Lessee is repairing and restoring the Property pursuant to this
Paragraph, the rental payable by Lessee shall abate in proportion to the floor area of
that Property of which Lessee is deprived for the period in which Lessee is deprived of
such area.

c. Division of Compensation Award. Lessor and Lessee shall participate pro
rata based upon their respective investments in the Property and the value of the

PremisesProperty. In determining the respective investments of Lessor and Lessee in
the PremisesProperty, Lessee shall receive a credit for the value of Lessee's trade
fixtures and improvements to the PremisesProperty, taken by any condemning

option rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall be
construed to preclude Lessee from prosecuting any claim directly against the
condemning authority in such condemnation proceedings for loss of business,
and/or depreciation to, damage to and/or cost of removal of, and/or for the value of
stock and/or Lessee's trade fixtures, furniture, equipment and other improvements

conditions of this lease to be performed or observed by Lessee. Lessor shall indemnify
and save Lessee harmless from all losses and damage to any person or property
resulting from the willful and negligent act or omission, of Lessor, its employees,
agents, representatives or licensees, or resulting from the failure of Lessor to perform
or observe any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this lease to be performed or
observed by the Lessor; provided, however, that Lessor is notified within ten (10) days
of any event which might give rise to a claim of indemnification and that Lessor shall
have the right to defend any claim or action arising hereunder. The foregoing.
indemnities shall not be construed to limit or adversely affect the ability of Lessor or
Lessee to avail itself of the benefits of the insurance coverages set forth in this lease.
20. WARRANTY OF TITLE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, ETC. Lessor hereby
warrants that it has title to the Property in fee simple, free of all liens, charges
and encumbrances, and that it has full right and authority to enter into this
Lease. Lessor covenants and agrees that, so long as Lessee shall duly and
punctually perform and observe all of its obligations under the Lease, Lessee
shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Property without any
hindrance or molestation from Lessor or any other party.

conditions herein contained and such default shall continue for forty-five (45)
days after written notice thereof to Lessee (or if such default is not of a type
that can reasonably be corrected within forty-five (45) days as determined
by Lessor, and Lessee fails to commence promptly and in good faith to proceed
with due diligence to correct such default), then in any of the above-described
events, Lessor may elect to terminate the Lease and declare the term of the
Lease ended, to re-enter the Property or any part thereof with judicial process
and to expel and remove Lessee or any person or persons occupying the same
and again to repossess and enjoy the PremisesProperty. Lessor shall also have
the right, at its option, in the event its written notice of default is not cured by
Lessee within the time provided in this Lease, to cure any default by Lessee
and recover from Lessee the costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in curing
such default. In the event of termination of this Lease as a result of Lessee’s
default, the end of the lease term or Lessee’s voluntary relinquishment of its
lease before the end of the lease term, Lessor shall thereby acquire free and
clear title to Property including all improvements, modifications, and additions
to the PremisesProperty, all Endowment Fund reserves including any
remaining Initial Endowment funds, all pool equipment and supplies, all

c. Remedies Not Exclusive. Any right or remedy conferred on Lessor or Lessee
under the Lease shall not be deemed to be exclusive of any other right or remedy
which might otherwise be available hereunder or at law or in equity. The rights and
remedies hereunder shall be cumulative and may be exercised and enforced
concurrently and whenever and as often as occasion therefore arises.

b. Default by Lessor. In the event of default by Lessor in the performance or
observance of any of the covenants or conditions herein contained and which shall
continue for forty-five (45) days after written notice thereof to Lessor (or if such
default is not of a type that can reasonably be corrected within forty-five (45) days,
then if Lessee fails to commence promptly and in good faith to proceed with due
diligence to correct such default), then in any of the above described events, Lessee
shall have the right at its option to immediately terminate the Lease, to cure any
default by Lessor and deduct the costs and expenses incurred by Lessee in curing
such default from the rental and any other amounts thereafter accruing to Lessor, or
to offset the amount of damages incurred as a consequence of any claim described
above from the rental and any other amount thereafter accruing to Lessor. All
amounts expended by Lessee in curing Lessor's defaults or as a consequence of any
claim shall be paid by Lessor upon demand by Lessee. In the event of any alleged
default hereunder by either Lessor or Lessee, the parties shall endeavor, in good
faith, to utilize an alternative dispute resolution mechanism, which utilizes retired
judicial officials prior to the commencement of any litigation.

LEASE
THIS INDENTURE OF LEASE, (herein called the “Lease”), made and entered
into as of the ______________day of
, 2007; by and between MILWAUKEE
COUNTY, a municipal corporation of the State of Wisconsin, as represented by the
Department Of Parks, Recreation & Culture as lessor (herein called “County” or
“Lessor”), and FRIENDS OF HOYT PARK AND POOL, INC. (FRIENDS), a Wisconsin
non-stock corporation, as Lessee.
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
Milwaukee County is the owner of Hoyt Park, located adjacent to the
Menomonee River in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin. Hoyt Park was deeded by the City of
Wauwatosa to Milwaukee County in 1937 with the understanding that a swimming
pool would be constructed and maintained at that location. Milwaukee County
constructed Hoyt Park Pool and Bathhouse, which are located in the Park but have
not been operable since 2002. Friends of Hoyt Park, the predecessor of FRIENDS,
was formed as a grassroots citizens organization in February 2006, and was
established in April 2006 as a unit of The Park People. FRIENDS was incorporated
as a Wisconsin non-stock corporation on July 14, 2006 for the purposes of raising
funds, constructing, endowing, maintaining and operating a multi-generational,
family-oriented aquatic pool and community meeting facility and Related Facilities
at Hoyt Park for use by all Milwaukee County residents, and by visitors to
Milwaukee County. FRIENDS’ proposed “Related Facilities” at Hoyt Park include a
coffee shop, a concessions stand, and similar facilities to support the Pool’s overall
operation, which may also include the renovation of the existing Hoyt Park
Bathhouse for such uses. Pursuant to Adopted County Board Resolution (County
Board File No. 06-_______, adopted ____________, 2007) Milwaukee County has
agreed, subject to contingency, to lease the site of the existing but inoperable Hoyt
Park Pool and Bathhouse to FRIENDS for these purposes.

3. CONTINGENCY. This Lease and the obligations of Lessor and Lessee
hereunder are contingent upon Lessee complying with Milwaukee County “Due
Diligence” requirements (see attached, as exhibit F) and upon Lessee obtaining on or
before that date which is twelve (12) months from the Preoccupancy Commencement
Date or such other date as mutually agreed upon in writing by Lessee and Lessor,

surrounding area, and Lessee shall obtain any and all approvals necessary for
its use as contemplated. The Lessor does not represent that the Property are
suitable to Lessee’s proposed use. The Lessor is not responsible for any
required approvals, zoning changes, building permits or other required
authorizations from regulatory agencies, without limitation. Lessee enters into
this Lease with this knowledge and understanding. Lessee shall use the
Property consistent with its Primary Function, to construct, endow, maintain
and operate an aquatic pool and Related Facilities at Hoyt Park, including a
concessions stand, and similar facilities to support the Pool’s overall operation
(among them a coffee shop/casual restaurant in the existing Bathhouse, to the
extent subsequently permitted and approved by Lessor). Subject to Lessor’s prior
written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, Lessee
may use the Property for related ancillary functions such as offices, meeting
space, gift shop, food service, restrooms, performance spaces, and other lawful
purposes not inconsistent with the Primary Function and consistent with the
purpose of increasing public access to the Property and the surrounding Park.
Any proposed change of use or deviation from Lessee’s Primary Function will
require Milwaukee County Board and County Executive approval. The grounds
shall be developed and landscaped in a manner that will enhance public access to
and enjoyment of the adjacent areas of Hoyt Park and promote park and open
space uses. Approval in writing must be obtained from the Department of Parks,
Recreation and Culture for any naming privileges sought in relation to the pool,
pool components, coffee shop, casual restaurant or related facilities, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except that the names of
individuals or family names or the names of foundations do not require such
approval. Lessor’s failure to respond within 10 business days to a written or
electronic request by Lessee for approval of a naming privilege shall constitute
approval, if, in such written or electronic request, Lessee shall have notified
Lessor of the time constraint. Lessor may request and Lessee shall not
unreasonably refuse a reasonable extension of time within which to respond if
needed.
(b) Public Access and Use of Property. Lessee understands that the Property
exterior to the buildings and Pool area is a public park and is to remain open and
accessible to the public. The entire site surrounding the Property shall remain

supplies associated with the Property that are necessary for the continued
operation of the Premise, shall become the property of the Lessor upon the
expiration or termination of the Lease. In no event shall Lessee make any
alterations or additions to the Property without the prior written consent of
Lessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld. Routine
instances of maintenance, painting, repair and like-kind replacement of
materials needing repair or replacement do not constitute alterations or
additions requiring such approval, providing they do not individually exceed

a result of Lessee’s voluntary election to relinquish its lease before the end of
the lease term, or Lessee’s uncured default, Lessor shall thereby acquire, free
and clear, title to Property including all permanent alterations, modifications,
additions and improvements to the Property, all Endowment Fund reserves
including any remaining Initial Endowment funds, all pool equipment and
supplies, all Lessee-owned concession equipment and supplies and all other
Lessee-owned equipment and supplies necessary and appropriate for the

right, title and interest hereunder, nor sublet the Property, nor any portions of the

any time after which Lessee may have given notice to terminate the Lease, the entire
structural portion of the Property or such portion thereof as shall render the remaining
portion thereof unsuitable for the continued conduct of Lessee's activities therein, shall
be damaged or destroyed more that 85% by fire or other casualty, Lessee shall have

shall convey and remit to Lessor all insurance proceeds payable by reason of and with
respect to damage or destruction to the improvements owned or constructed by Lessee
on the Property, and all insurance proceeds relating to Lessee's futures, equipment,
and other personal property, to the extent such things are necessary and
appropriate for the continued operation of the leased property. If Lessee does not
elect to terminate the Lease or if the damage or destruction to the Property does not
render the remaining portion thereof unsuitable for the continued conduct of Lessee's
activities thereon, then the Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and Lessee
shall, in accordance with the provisions set forth in Paragraphs 9 and 14 hereof,
promptly commence and pursue diligently to completion whatever repairs to the
Property are necessary to restore the Property to the condition the same were in prior
to such damage or destruction and Lessee shall be entitled to all insurance proceeds
relating to the casualty. All such repairs shall be performed promptly and in a good
and workmanlike manner in accordance with all statutes, laws, ordinances, rules and
regulations of any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Property.

period in which Lessee is repairing and restoring the Property pursuant to this
Paragraph, the rental payable by Lessee shall abate in proportion to the floor area of
that Property of which Lessee is deprived for the period in which Lessee is deprived of
such area.

the Lease shall continue in full force and effect. Lessor shall use such portion of the
Lessor's proceeds by reason of such taking necessary to repair and restore the
Property as herein provided.

term in all compensation awarded or paid upon a total or partial taking of the
Property. In determining the respective investments of Lessor and Lessee in the
Property, Lessee shall receive a credit for the value of Lessee's trade fixtures and
improvements to the Property, taken by any condemning authority. In the event that
a single entire award is made on account of the condemnation, Lessee and Lessor
will be entitled to such proportion of the award as may be fair and reasonable. Any
valuation shall also take into account Lessee's option rights. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude Lessee from
prosecuting any claim directly against the condemning authority in such
condemnation proceedings for loss of business, and/or depreciation to, damage to
and/or cost of removal of, and/or for the value of stock and/or Lessee's trade
fixtures, furniture, equipment and other improvements made to the Property, and
any other property belonging to Lessee.
19. INDEMNITY. Lessee shall indemnify and save Lessor harmless from all
losses and damage to any person or property resulting from the willful or negligent act
or omission of Lessee, its employees, agents, representatives or licensees, or resulting
from the failure of Lessee to perform or observe any of the terms, covenants and
conditions of this lease to be performed or observed by Lessee. Lessor shall indemnify
and save Lessee harmless from all losses and damage to any person or property
resulting from the willful and negligent act or omission, of Lessor, its employees,
agents, representatives or licensees, or resulting from the failure of Lessor to perform
or observe any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this lease to be performed or
observed by the Lessor; provided, however, that Lessor is notified within ten (10) days
of any event which might give rise to a claim of indemnification and that Lessor shall
have the right to defend any claim or action arising hereunder. The foregoing
indemnities shall not be construed to limit or adversely affect the ability of Lessor or
Lessee to avail itself of the benefits of the insurance coverages set forth in this lease.
20. WARRANTY OF TITLE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, ETC. Lessor hereby
warrants that it has title to the Property in fee simple, free of all liens, charges
and encumbrances, and that it has full right and authority to enter into this
Lease. Lessor covenants and agrees that, so long as Lessee shall duly and
punctually perform and observe all of its obligations under the Lease, Lessee
shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Property without any
hindrance or molestation from Lessor or any other party.

conditions herein contained and such default shall continue for forty-five (45)
days after written notice thereof to Lessee (or if such default is not of a type
that can reasonably be corrected within forty-five (45) days as determined

with due diligence to correct such default), then in any of the above-described
events, Lessor may elect to terminate the Lease and declare the term of the
Lease ended, to re-enter the Property or any part thereof with judicial process
and to expel and remove Lessee or any person or persons occupying the same
and again to repossess and enjoy the Property. Lessor shall also have the right,
at its option, in the event its written notice of default is not cured by Lessee
within the time provided in this Lease, to cure any default by Lessee and
recover from Lessee the costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in curing such
default. In the event of termination of this Lease as a result of Lessee’s default,
the end of the lease term or Lessee’s voluntary relinquishment of its lease
before the end of the lease term, Lessor shall thereby acquire free and clear
title to Property including all improvements, modifications, and additions to the
Property, all Endowment Fund reserves including any remaining Initial
Endowment funds, all pool equipment and supplies, all Lessee-owned

supplies necessary and appropriate for the continued operation of the leased

under the Lease shall not be deemed to be exclusive of any other right or remedy
which might otherwise be available hereunder or at law or in equity. The rights and
remedies hereunder shall be cumulative and may be exercised and enforced
concurrently and whenever and as often as occasion therefore arises.

b. Default by Lessor. In the event of default by Lessor in the performance or
observance of any of the covenants or conditions herein contained and which shall
continue for forty-five (45) days after written notice thereof to Lessor (or if such
default is not of a type that can reasonably be corrected within forty-five (45) days,
then if Lessee fails to commence promptly and in good faith to proceed with due
diligence to correct such default), then in any of the above described events, Lessee
shall have the right at its option to immediately terminate the Lease, to cure any
default by Lessor and deduct the costs and expenses incurred by Lessee in curing
such default from the rental and any other amounts thereafter accruing to Lessor, or
to offset the amount of damages incurred as a consequence of any claim described
above from the rental and any other amount thereafter accruing to Lessor. All
amounts expended by Lessee in curing Lessor's defaults or as a consequence of any
claim shall be paid by Lessor upon demand by Lessee. In the event of any alleged
default hereunder by either Lessor or Lessee, the parties shall endeavor, in good
faith, to utilize an alternative dispute resolution mechanism, which utilizes retired
judicial officials prior to the commencement of any litigation.

d. No Waivers of Rights. The failure of Lessor or Lessee to insist upon strict
performance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions herein contained shall not
be deemed a waiver of any of its rights or remedies and shall not be deemed a waiver of
any subsequent breach or default in any of said terms, covenants and conditions.

Subject: Re: Tentative Agenda for Monday's DAS Update

Rob, Molly and I met on Friday and discussed our briefing strategy and the
timeliness for the Budget process. I also got a copy of SW calendar and while
there were tentative notations about budget briefings and public hearings, no
time has actually been blocked off. We need to discuss the timeliness with
Waker and begin working with Ed and Dorothy to block times off on Scotts
calendar. In addition, we need guidance on a couple of item. For example,
Amendt use to meet with each Department head after the decisions were made and
walk them through the decisions (in great detail). I am not recommending this
level of detail, but we need to know from Scott if we need to build in time for
him to meet with each (or selected) department heads to tell them of the
decisions and get their feedback.
In addition, we need to get directions out to departments regarding our
expectations of them in preparing and attending public hearings. Ed is getting
me a copy of what we used last year in the public hearings so we can use it as
a guide. These must get scheduled and we must get department heads working on
this. Is the purpose of the public hearing to get feedback on what the
department's are requesting or what the Executive is proposing?? I am hoping
it is based off of department request. The problem last year was that the
hearings happened so late in the process that it hampered the ability of the
Executive to make changes due to the timing and the need to find more cuts so
he could restore things he wanted to restore as a result of the hearings.
Molly and I have agreed that our approach is to go back to a briefing document
format (as opposed to just papers on selected items). The document will be
divided into major and minor items with little or no discussion with the Exec
on the minor items unless he has questions. The briefing documents will be
supplemented with handouts as necessary and will include options when
appropriate.

CArcher_Email3013735

Molly, after we meet with HR on Monday AM and after you prepare the schedule as
we discussed, we need to get together and discuss those things we need
decisions on from the CEX today. Ed, please remember to look at what we used
last year for the public hearings and get that to me as soon as you can on
Monday.
Molly and I will meet with analysts on Tuesday to give them guidance and
establish a order (in terms of what goes first) so we can slot them into SW
calendar. For now, however, we need to actually schedule blocks of time on his
calendar for briefings and blocks of time for the public hearings.

Molly, you should plan on attending the 4:00 status meeting with Walker.

My understanding was they could make it if the payment was advanced, which is
was. I would be very disappointed if another advance was made. I will have to
talk to Bernatz to see how short they are, but I thought was agreement that any
short-term cash flow problem would come from either administrative actions to
save $ or donated funds. This is very troubling and it is likely that I won't
be able to make the meeting.

We plan to respond to your request using our standardized, written format for
all projects as produced by our Expedition Cost and Schedule System on projects
for which AE&ES Division has signature authority. This report gives you a
complete fiscal picture for each of hundreds of projects whether the project is
complete, active, on hold or substantially complete. Each year we invest
substantial resources to maintain this data for project management.
Since the information fills a 3" - 3 ring binder, we will deliver a copy to Ms.
Koper instead of e-mail. Alternatively, I believe DAS does have on-line access
CArcher_Email3013749

to the same Expedition software information
See the attached example. If this format or response methodology is not
acceptable please provide details on what format and/or specific projects you
require. If you do require this information in a different format, we will do
our best to deliver it ASAP. Unfortunately we do not have the resources at
this time to undertake such a task in the time frame proposed.

Last month, the Department of Administrative Services reported a 2007 projected year-end
deficit of $3.4 million. The projected deficit assumed the full use of the funds budgeted in the
County Board contingency fund and assumed the use of $2.0 million that the Board approved for
placement in reserve. Since that time, we have been notified of additional estimates from several
departments. Our estimates for 2007 now indicate a projected deficit of approximately $4.2
million for 2007. Factors contributing to the projected deficit include an estimated Transit
deficit of approximately $1.8 million, the addition of critical patient care staff in BHD over the
last several months, unexpected increases in our juvenile corrections population and declining
revenue in the Register of Deeds Office.
While I am very concerned about the mid-year projections, I am optimistic that by working
together we can make corrections now that will result in a balanced 2007 budget without
jeopardizing essential county services. To accomplish this, I am directing departments to
critically review their operations to identify opportunities for savings that will be submitted to
the County Board for reallocation to the contingency fund. Further, departments should
immediately suspend non-critical purchases, including travel and expenditures for capital items,
and the filling of non-essential positions for the remainder of the year. In addition to cabinet
appointees, I am respectfully requesting Constitutional and Elected Officials to implement
actions in their operations that will contribute to our success in meeting the current year fiscal
challenge.
The Department of Administrative Services will be putting in place a process for the review of
proposed hiring and purchasing actions. These instructions will be forthcoming. I am also
directing DAS to work with departments to update 2007 projections and report the findings of
the updated projections to my office and the Chair of the Finance and Audit Committee within
30-days. In the event, the projections do not show substantial improvement, further corrective
actions will be required.

Correct. Our recommendation will direct DHSS to internally find the savings to
fund the 5 since BHD is already projecting a $3.0 million deficit.
You should also know that the cost of the 5 position on an annualized basis is
almost $500,000. :(

I have not read the attached yet, but this is alot of money. I am wondering if
we can negotiate with the the State to do this over a number of years -- like
10 years. It appears the issue of cremation is off the table? I am assuming
there is a state statute governing this, I am curious what latitude the
statutes give us.....

        Fw: County Grounds Pauper Cemetery Remains - Final Disposition - Update #5





John/Jack
Today I received 6 copies of the draft final report on a portion of the remains
(non-adult). Dr. Norm Sullivan of Marquette University wants to meet to
discuss the impacts of the report, a copy of which has been sent to the State
Historical Society (SHS). Dr. Sullivan would also like to discuss the
custodianship or curatorship options for MU in the near future. These human
remains were dug up by County public works construction crews in 1991 on the
Milwaukee County Grounds.
Dr. Sullivan will also be sending me a copy of the transmittal letter to SHS.
We should further discuss the alternatives and costs for the County to
re-inter these human remains. This order from SHS could come within the next
few months. With 1,659 individual remains to be disposed of, at a potential
cost of $1500 per individual this could cost the County $2.5 million that is
not budgeted for at this time. On the other hand, perhaps we can find an
interested curator if the SHS considers this an option.
I will be sending a copy of the report to both of you and those copied to
review before the meeting.
Please give me some dates you are available in the next 2 to 3 weeks
Thanks

John:
The attached is the SHS response letter to Marquette's response letter to SHS
via the County as discussed below. It again appears that the County will
become responsible for the remains in early 2008. Hopefully the reburial order
will have specifics as to the reburial options or requirements. In any event,
the County should try to determine the potential cost so we can consider the
cost for this reburial in the 2008 budget preparation. Things must be getting
serious since this is the first direct formal communication the County has
received about this since July of 1993.

Per our last meeting on this:
With 1,649 individual remains to be disposed of, at a potential cost of $1500
per individual this could cost the County $2.5 million that is not budgeted for
at this time.
County Corporation Counsel will investigate: (1) the County's options per State
law for body re-burial before SHS decides for the County; (2) verify what the
reporting requirements are per State law for the County before the SHS can
CArcher_Email3013764

decide on a final disposition
Greg High will research the logistics of re-burial such as (1) manner of
re-burial or options available and associated costs and (2) suitable space
available on County lands, The assumption is that we would first look to
re-bury the bodies at the existing County Grounds cemetery.

We should try to get answers to items 2 and 3 above before June 1 2007

John:
Dr. Norman Sullivan called me on 2/16/07 to let me know that the response
letter to the latest letter from SHS will be coming from Marquette University
officials to Milwaukee County within a few weeks. He indicated that Marquette
University officials met recently and decided to respond as an organization
with a letter to Milwaukee County and also send copies of this letter to
various people in State government, including the Governor's office. At a
later date, Marquette may also request temporary curator ship of the human
remains until such time as the connection between the names on the County's
burial roster can be linked with the physical remains. This will require
substantial additional investigation under the guidance of Dr. Sullivan.
Marquette apparently will not allow the County to review a draft of the letter
from the University before it is mailed to us. No copy is to be forwarded to
SHS at this time.
Let me know if you have any concerns.
Thanks

bad for this. He takes his job very seriously and you know if it could have
possible been done, we would have got it done. Thanks again.

Memo to Supv Nyklewicz

DRAFT

Subject: 2006 Countywide Financial Audit
Date: July 11
Each year, the countywide audit package includes the audited comprehensive
annual financial report, the single audit of federal and state awards, a
management letter report, the audited financial report of the Milwaukee County
Employees Retirement System and other required federal reports related to the
airport and transit system. The financial schedules are prepared by County
administrators and audited by the County’s external auditors, Virchow Krause,
under a contract with the Department of Audit.
Historically, we have attempted to provide these reports to the County Board no
later than the June committee cycle. This year, due to workload demands within
the Department of Administrative Services, the reports will not be available for
distribution until late in July. While we are concerned about this delay, it should
in no way be seen as a reflection on the commitment and effort of existing
accounting staff. There are a number of projects including the Ceridian payroll
implementation and sick leave litigation resolution that placed a significant
demand on accounting staff. In addition, the division was faced with a number of
key vacancies.
We are encouraged by the initiative of the Department of Administrative Services

Thanks. Cady is well versed on this topic -- probably more so than Henken, so
if questions are detailed Cady should be able to respond.
Let us know in the future if you need anything from us.

Thanks again.

The only bonds that I am aware of are the ones that the Museum issued to
purchase the Imax theater, refund the bonds that the County issued to construct
the IMAX and the construction of the Butterfly exhibit. I believe in one of
the early proposals the outstanding principal was $13.3 million. The bonds are
secured by Chase.

Re: last yr"s budget workshop info
Wednesday, July 11, 2007 9:48:26 AM

Fran and Ed, these are the powerpoints I am looking for. We agreed when we met
with the Exec that we would forward each department the power point they worked
off last year so departments can update them. Since these were prepared in the
CEX office, we cannot locate them here. Maybe some one could call Rod and see
where they are????
I need to get these out this week so departments can start preparing them in
time for CEX office review.
Thanks.

This looks like it might be the general overview that either the Exec or Linda
gave at last year's hearings. There was also a Powerpoint that Rod McWilliams
did that contained a slide or two of highlights from each major department. As
I recall, he developed this from the memos prepared by major departments for
the Exec.

My understanding was they could make it if the payment was advanced, which is
was. I would be very disappointed if another advance was made. I will have to
talk to Bernatz to see how short they are, but I thought was agreement that any
short-term cash flow problem would come from either administrative actions to
save $ or donated funds. This is very troubling and it is likely that I won't
be able to make the meeting.

Cynthia Archer, Fiscal and Budget Administrator

SUBJECT :

2007 Mid-Year Budget Projections

By now you have received and had an opportunity to review the July 9 memo from the County Executive
regarding our 2007 fiscal status. This memo will provide further instructions on departmental
expectations and the process we will follow for the remainder of the year to ensure we bring the 2007
budget into balance.
Review of hiring plans for 2007 – Each department should critically evaluate the need for filling vacant
positions for the remainder of 2007. Effectively immediately all request to fill positions should include a
justification documenting why the immediate filling of a position is critical to the core operations of
county government. Priority will be given to positions related to critical public safety and direct patient
care needs. Please be sure to address in your justification the factors indicated on the attached form and
any other factors that you deem relevant.
Please note that this process will apply to all positions, including ECP and unclassified positions.
Exempted from this process are the classifications of correctional officers, _______, _____ and _____.
All request to fill positions should be submitted to the Human Resources Department with a certification
form and the completed “Request to Fill” form. To be clear, this is not meant to be a hiring freeze but
rather a more formalized review of the need to fill vacancies. As has been the case in the past, positions
related to public safety, direct patient care, non-levy funded position, revenue generating positions and
positions essential to the critical operations of county government, while included in this process, will
continue to be expedited.
To ensure that department heads have the ability to perform a complete review of hiring plans for the
remainder of 2007 in light of the current fiscal challenge, DAS-Fiscal will be returning all pending
certifications to the Human Resources department with instructions to log them out of the system and
return them to departments for further review. If department heads determine that these positions are
critical you may re-submit them following the process noted above.
Review of discretionary spending – Each department head should work with managers within your
department to identify savings that can be realized by delaying or not proceeding with budgeted
expenditures for non-essential items. Particular attention should be directed at travel, professional
services, consultant services and operating capital expenditures for items such as computers, carpeting
and other minor equipment. I have attached for your review the unspent balances in accounts ______,
_____, and _____ to assist you in this process. Until this process is complete, expenditures from the 8500
accounts will be frozen. Requests for spending from the 8500 accounts should be submitted to my office
for review. At this time, no other accounts are being frozen, however, I am asking department heads to
critically review 2007 spending plans throughout your budget to identify opportunities for generating
savings in 2007 and include these savings in your second quarter projections.
Longstanding Encumbrances – Review of our fiscal records indicate that the county has over $______
million in operating encumbrances that are a year old or older. In the cases where the expenditures
related to these encumbrances are no anticipated, these encumbrances should be liquated with the
corresponding savings included in your second quarter projections. Under separate cover, we will be

CArcher_Email3013816

Second Quarter Projections for 2007
Department of Administrative Services

Page 2
July 9, 2007

sending departments a list of encumbrances that have been on the books for a year or more. Departments
will need to review this list and provide justification for the expenditure need given the length of time that
has elapsed since these funds were initially budgeted. Operating encumbrances in this category will be
frozen until the review process is complete.
Second Quarter Budget Projections – Today, instructions will be coming out from the Controller’s
office for completion of department second quarter projections. In looking at recent history of
departmental surpluses, year-end surpluses have generally been achieved in wages and operating capital
outlay. It is critical as you prepare your second quarter projections that you make every effort to identify
these savings now. It is also critical that you take steps as noted above to voluntarily maximize and
identify savings that can be used to offset the 2007 projected deficit.
As noted in the memo from the County Executive, he has directed DAS to complete the analysis of
second quarter projections within 30-days so that we can assess if the above measures will be sufficient to
balance the 2007 budget. Consequently, it is important that departments move quickly to complete the
review of your 2007 budget status with an eye towards generating savings. The results of your review
should be included and reflected in your second quarter projections.
In closing, given our most recent projections I have struggled over the course of action we should take at
this point. I am placing my confidence in you as department heads to work with your managers and staff
to rigorously identify steps that we can take now to avoid the need for more drastic steps. To the extent
we are successful, we can avoid steps we have taken in the past (hiring freeze, purchasing freeze,
departmental levy reductions, etc.) to balance the budget. It is important however, that you identify
savings now that we can count on so that we can assess the need for possible other steps.
I thank you in advance for your cooperation. If you need additional fiscal information from DAS or if
you would like to discuss this further, please do not hesitate to contact me at 278-4179, your DAS
analysts or Scott Manske.

Department Heads

FROM

:

Cynthia Archer, Fiscal and Budget Administrator

SUBJECT :

2007 Mid-Year Budget Projections

By now you have received and had an opportunity to review the July 9 memo from the County Executive
regarding our 2007 fiscal status. This memo will provide further instructions on departmental
expectations and the process we will follow for the remainder of the year.
Review of hiring plans for 2007 – Each department should critically evaluate the need for filling vacant
positions for the remainder of 2007. Effectively immediately all request to fill positions should include a
justification documenting why the immediate filling of a position is critical to the core operations of
county government. Priority will be given to positions related to critical public safety and direct patient
care needs. Please be sure to address in your justification the factors indicated on the attached form and
any other factors that you deem relevant.
Please note that this process will apply to all positions, including ECP and unclassified positions. All
request to fill positions should be submitted to the Human Resources Department with a certification form
and the completed “Request to Fill” form. To be clear, this is not meant to be a hiring freeze but rather a
more formalized review of the need to fill vacancies. As has been the case in the past, positions related to
public safety, direct patient care, non-levy funded position, revenue generating positions and positions
essential to the critical operations of county government, while included in this process, will continue to
be expedited.
To ensure that department heads have the ability to perform a complete review of hiring plans for the
remainder of 2007 in light of the current fiscal challenge, DAS-Fiscal will be returning all pending
certifications to the Human Resources department with instructions to log them out of the system and
return them to departments for further review. If department heads determine that these positions are
critical you may re-submit them following the process noted above.
Review of discretionary spending – Each department head should work with managers within your
department to identify savings that can be realized by delaying or not proceeding with budgeted
expenditures for non-essential items. Particular attention should be directed at travel, professional
services, consultant services and operating capital expenditures for items such as computers, carpeting
and other minor equipment. I have attached for your review the unspent balances in the 8500 series of
accounts and to assist you in this process. Until this process is complete, expenditures from these
accounts will be frozen. Requests and justification for spending from these accounts should be submitted
to your DAS analysts by July 25. At this time, no other accounts are being frozen, however, I am asking
department heads to critically review 2007 spending plans throughout your budget to identify
opportunities for generating savings in 2007 and include these savings in your second quarter projections.
Longstanding Encumbrances – Review of our fiscal records indicate that the county has over $______
million in operating encumbrances that are a year old or older and approximately $____ in operating
encumbrances related to 2006 carryovers to 2007. In the cases where the expenditures related to these
encumbrances are not anticipated, these encumbrances should be liquated with the corresponding savings
included in your second quarter projections. Under separate cover, we will be sending departments a list
of encumbrances that will indicate for your department those operating encumbrances that are greater

CArcher_Email3013823

Second Quarter Projections for 2007
Department of Administrative Services

Page 2
July 9, 2007

then one year old and those that are related to the 2006 carryovers. Departments should review this list to
identify possible savings. Operating encumbrances that are a year or more old are being frozen pending
submission of justification for the expenditure given the length of time that has elapsed since these funds
were initially budgeted. Encumbrances older than one year will be liquated on August 1 in the
absence of departmental justification. Please submit your justification to your DAS analysts prior to
August 1. Again, savings you identify through your review should be reflected in your second quarter
projections.
Second Quarter Budget Projections – Today, instructions will be coming out from the Controller’s
office for completion of department second quarter projections. In looking at recent history of
departmental surpluses, year-end surpluses have generally been achieved in wages and operating capital
outlay. It is critical as you prepare your second quarter projections that you make every effort to identify
these savings now. It is also critical that you take steps as noted above to voluntarily maximize and
identify savings that can be used to offset the 2007 projected deficit.
As noted in the memo from the County Executive, he has directed DAS to complete the analysis of
second quarter projections within 30-days so that we can assess if the above measures will be sufficient to
balance the 2007 budget. Consequently, it is important that departments move quickly to complete the
review of your 2007 budget status with an eye towards generating savings. The results of your review
should be included and reflected in your second quarter projections.
In closing, given our most recent projections I have struggled over the course of action we should take at
this point. I am placing my confidence in you as department heads to work with your managers and staff
to rigorously identify steps that we can take now to avoid the need for more drastic steps. To the extent
we are successful, we can avoid steps we have taken in the past (hiring freeze, purchasing freeze,
departmental levy reductions, etc.) to balance the budget. It is important however, that you identify
savings now that we can count on so that we can assess the need for possible other steps.
I thank you in advance for your cooperation. If you need additional fiscal information from DAS or if
you would like to discuss this further, please do not hesitate to contact me at 278-4179, your DAS
analysts or Scott Manske.

Please review one last time. Molly, I will need the electronic document for
balances in 8500 series of accounts.
Who should be cc on this? On the one hand this is an operational issues and
perhaps Chair of Finance and Board staff does not need to be cc. Not sure.
Also, the Walker letter that I have also attached was sent to Holloway and
Cooley. Rob please advise who you want cc on this. Should we cc the same
people that were cc on Walker letter?
Molly, I believe in the past we did implement the attached reviews for all
departments included Courts and offices directed by elected offcials. Is this
correct? I think they would be covered by this process.
Bill, as we discussed you will need to send out the encumbrance docuements.
Those should go to the same departments on your list for quarterly projections
(I assume this includes the Courts and offices headed by elected officials).
Bill, once this goes out, lets review your corrrespondence related to 2nd
quarter projections then we can get that out.
Kat, when this is done we need to be sure to cc the two women in HR that were
at the meeting. We will then put it on our new fancy memo head that you
developed. :)

outstanding encumbrances. Departments should review this list to identify possible savings. By August
1, departments should provide justification to your DAS analysts for the continuation of encumbrances
that are more than a year old. Funds will be frozen for any operating encumbrance that is a year or more
CArcher_Email3013833

old for which acceptable justification is not provided. Again, savings you identify through your review
should be reflected in your second quarter projections.
Second Quarter Budget Projections – Today, instructions will be coming out from the Controller’s
office for completion of department second quarter projections. In looking at recent history of
departmental surpluses, year-end surpluses have generally been achieved in wages and operating capital
outlay. It is critical as you prepare your second quarter projections that you make every effort to identify
these savings now. It is also critical that you take steps as noted above to voluntarily maximize and
identify savings that can be used to offset the 2007 projected deficit.
As noted in the memo from the County Executive, he has directed DAS to complete the analysis of
second quarter projections within 30-days so that we can assess if the above measures will be sufficient to
balance the 2007 budget. Consequently, it is important that departments move quickly to complete the
review of your 2007 budget status with an eye towards generating savings. The results of your review
should be included and reflected in your second quarter projections.
In closing, given our most recent projections I have struggled over the course of action we should take at
this point. I am placing my confidence in you as department heads to work with your managers and staff
to rigorously identify steps that we can take now to avoid the need for more drastic steps. To the extent
we are successful, we can avoid steps we have taken in the past (hiring freeze, purchasing freeze,
departmental levy reductions, etc.) to balance the budget. It is important however, that you identify
savings now that we can count on so that we can assess the need for possible other steps.
I thank you in advance for your cooperation. If you need additional fiscal information from DAS or if
you would like to discuss this further, please do not hesitate to contact me at 278-4179, your DAS
analysts or Scott Manske.

Re: Response to Holloway IGR memo

You might want to add that we are currently working on reviewing options and
developing the 2008 county budget and that while the 2008 county budget
recommendations will most certainly take into account the fiscal impacts of
the state budget, it is not productive for us at this point to re-direct budget
staff for a preliminary status report on the State Budget. Perhaps this should
more appropriately be undertaken by IGR staff.

        Response to Holloway IGR memo





Hi Ed. Here is a potential response to the Holloway memo.
-- Rob

CArcher_Email3013841

To: County Board Chairman Lee Holloway
From: County Executive Scott Walker
I am in receipt of the memorandum dated July 10, 2007, that you sent to Director of
Administrative Services Rob Henken asking for an analysis of the different versions of the State
Budget passed by the two houses of the State Legislature. While I am directing Mr. Henken and
other County department heads to work with your staff by answering any specific questions they
have, I have also indicated to Mr. Henken that the memorandum you requested falls under the
purview of Intergovernmental Relations and County Board staff.
Virtually all of the information you requested in your memorandum is readily available and/or
easily discernible to your staff. Information that is not readily available or easily discernible can
and will be provided by County departments if specifically requested, as it always has been. I
fail to see why we have a separate IGR and County Board staff if they cannot be expected to
perform and/or coordinate this analysis for the Legislative Branch. Consequently, I believe that
it is appropriate for this analysis to be authored by your staff – with technical assistance from
County departments as needed – in precisely the same manner that similar State Budget analyses
have been performed for the Intergovernmental Relations Committee this year and in previous
years.
Thank you for your consideration.

Please review one last time. Molly, I will need the electronic document for
balances in 8500 series of accounts.
Who should be cc on this? On the one hand this is an operational issues and
perhaps Chair of Finance and Board staff does not need to be cc. Not sure.
Also, the Walker letter that I have also attached was sent to Holloway and
Cooley. Rob please advise who you want cc on this. Should we cc the same
people that were cc on Walker letter?
Molly, I believe in the past we did implement the attached reviews for all
departments included Courts and offices directed by elected offcials. Is this
correct? I think they would be covered by this process.
Bill, as we discussed you will need to send out the encumbrance docuements.
Those should go to the same departments on your list for quarterly projections
CArcher_Email3013851

(I assume this includes the Courts and offices headed by elected officials).
Bill, once this goes out, lets review your corrrespondence related to 2nd
quarter projections then we can get that out.
Kat, when this is done we need to be sure to cc the two women in HR that were
at the meeting. We will then put it on our new fancy memo head that you
developed. :)

INTEROFFICE COMMUNICATION

FROM

Cynthia Archer, Fiscal and Budget Administrator

SUBJECT :

2007 Mid-Year Budget Projections

By now you have received and had an opportunity to review the July 9 memo from the County Executive
regarding our 2007 fiscal status. This memo will provide further instructions on departmental
expectations and the process we will follow for the remainder of the year.
Review of hiring plans for 2007 – Each department should critically evaluate the need for filling vacant
positions for the remainder of 2007. Effectively immediately all request to fill positions should include a
justification documenting why the immediate filling of a position is critical to the core operations of
county government. Priority will be given to positions related to critical public safety and direct patient
care needs. Please be sure to address in your justification the factors indicated on the attached form and
any other factors that you deem relevant.
Please note that this process will apply to all positions, including ECP and unclassified positions. All
requests to fill positions should be submitted to the Human Resources Department with a certification
form and the completed “Request to Fill” form (attached). To be clear, this is not meant to be a hiring
freeze but rather a more formalized review of the need to fill vacancies. As has been the case in the past,
positions related to public safety, direct patient care, non-levy funded position, revenue generating
positions and positions essential to the critical operations of county government, while included in this
process, will continue to be expedited.
In light of the current fiscal challenge and to ensure that department heads have the ability to perform a
complete review of hiring plans for the remainder of 2007, DAS-Fiscal will be returning all pending
certifications to the Human Resources department with instructions to log them out of the system and
return them to departments for further review. If department heads determine that these positions are
critical, you may re-submit them following the process noted above.
Review of discretionary spending – Each department head should work with managers within your
department to identify savings that can be realized by delaying or not proceeding with budgeted
expenditures for non-essential items. Particular attention should be directed to travel, professional
services, consultant services and operating capital expenditures for items such as computers, carpeting
and other minor equipment. I have attached for your review the unspent balances as of July 11 in the
8500 series of accounts to assist you in this process. Until this process is complete, expenditures from
these accounts will be frozen. Requests and justification for spending from these accounts should be
submitted to your DAS analysts by August 1. At this time, no other accounts are being frozen, however, I
am asking department heads to critically review 2007 spending plans throughout your budget to identify
opportunities for generating savings in 2007 and include these savings in your second quarter projections.
Encumbrances – Review of our fiscal records indicate that the county has over $12.6 million in
operating encumbrances that are older than one year. In the cases where the expenditures related to these
encumbrances are no longer anticipated, these encumbrances should be cancelled and the savings
included in your second quarter report. Under separate cover, we will be sending departments a list of all
outstanding encumbrances. Departments should review this list to identify possible savings. By August
1, departments should provide justification to your DAS analysts for the continuation of encumbrances
that are more than a year old. Funds will be frozen for any operating encumbrance that is a year or more
CArcher_Email3013853

old for which acceptable justification is not provided. Again, savings you identify through your review
should be reflected in your second quarter projections.
Second Quarter Budget Projections – Today, instructions will be coming out from the Controller’s
office for completion of department second quarter projections. In looking at recent history of
departmental surpluses, year-end surpluses have generally been achieved in wages and operating capital
outlay. It is critical as you prepare your second quarter projections that you make every effort to identify
these savings now. It is also critical that you take steps as noted above to voluntarily maximize and
identify savings that can be used to offset the 2007 projected deficit.
As noted in the memo from the County Executive, he has directed DAS to complete the analysis of
second quarter projections within 30-days so that we can assess if the above measures will be sufficient to
balance the 2007 budget. Consequently, it is important that departments move quickly to complete the
review of your 2007 budget status with an eye towards generating savings. The results of your review
should be included and reflected in your second quarter projections.
In closing, given our most recent projections I have struggled over the course of action we should take at
this point. I am placing my confidence in you as department heads to work with your managers and staff
to rigorously identify steps that we can take now to avoid the need for more drastic steps. To the extent
we are successful, we can avoid steps we have taken in the past (hiring freeze, purchasing freeze,
departmental levy reductions, etc.) to balance the budget. It is important however, that you identify
savings now that we can count on so that we can assess the need for possible other steps.
I thank you in advance for your cooperation. If you need additional fiscal information from DAS or if
you would like to discuss this further, please do not hesitate to contact me at 278-4179, your DAS
analysts or Scott Manske.

Please review one last time. Molly, I will need the electronic document for
balances in 8500 series of accounts.
Who should be cc on this? On the one hand this is an operational issues and
perhaps Chair of Finance and Board staff does not need to be cc. Not sure.
Also, the Walker letter that I have also attached was sent to Holloway and
Cooley. Rob please advise who you want cc on this. Should we cc the same
people that were cc on Walker letter?
Molly, I believe in the past we did implement the attached reviews for all
departments included Courts and offices directed by elected offcials. Is this
correct? I think they would be covered by this process.
Bill, as we discussed you will need to send out the encumbrance docuements.
Those should go to the same departments on your list for quarterly projections
(I assume this includes the Courts and offices headed by elected officials).
Bill, once this goes out, lets review your corrrespondence related to 2nd
quarter projections then we can get that out.
Kat, when this is done we need to be sure to cc the two women in HR that were
at the meeting. We will then put it on our new fancy memo head that you
developed. :)

What is the status of the greenhouses on the NW quad of the county grounds. I
received a call from the President of WI Lutheran College about the remaining
land.
I believe that Sue wants to take them down and build a structure on the back of
the Domes with funds from the WLC sale, MMSD and our capital budget. Is this
in the budget? What are we expecting from WLC? How much does it cost to take
the greenhouses down? Is that covered in the purchase price too?

SUBJECT :

2007 Mid-Year Budget Projections

As a follow-up to the July 9 memo from the County Executive regarding the 2007 fiscal status, the
following memo provides instructions to assist department heads in implementing procedures designed in
response to the projected 2007 deficit. These procedures will be in place for the remainder of the year.
Review of Hiring Plans for 2007 – Each department should critically evaluate the need for filling vacant
positions for the remainder of 2007. Effectively immediately all requests to fill positions should include a
certification form and justification documenting why the immediate filling of a position is critical to the
core operations of county government. Priority will be given to positions related to public safety and
direct patient care needs. The justification should include the factors indicated on the attached form and
any other relevant information.
Please note that this process will apply to all positions, including ECP and unclassified positions. All
requests to fill positions should be submitted to the Human Resources Division with a certification form
and the completed “Request to Fill a Position” form (attached). To be clear, this is not meant to be a
hiring freeze but rather a more formalized review of the need to fill vacancies. As has been the case in the
past, positions related to public safety, direct patient care, non-levy funded positions, revenue generating
positions and positions essential to the critical operations of county government, while included in this
process, will continue to be expedited.
In light of the current fiscal challenge and to ensure that department heads have the ability to perform a
complete review of hiring plans for the remainder of 2007, DAS-Fiscal Affairs will be returning all
pending certifications that have not been processed as of today to Human Resources with instructions to
log them out of the system and return them to departments for further review. If department heads
determine that these positions are critical, you may re-submit them following the process noted above.
Review of Discretionary Spending – Each department head should work with their managers to identify
savings that can be realized by delaying or eliminating expenditures for non-essential items. Particular
attention should be directed to travel, professional services, consultant services, outstanding
encumbrances and operating capital expenditures for items such as computers, carpeting and other minor
equipment. I have attached the unspent balances as of July 11 in the 8500 series of accounts to assist you
in this process. Until this process is complete, expenditures from the 8500 account series will be frozen.
Requests and justification for spending from these accounts should be submitted to your DAS analysts by
August 1. At this time, no other accounts are being frozen, however, I am asking department heads to
critically review 2007 spending plans throughout the budget to identify opportunities for generating
savings in 2007. These savings should be included in your second quarter projections.
Encumbrances – Review of our fiscal records indicate that the county has over $12.6 million in
operating encumbrances that are older than one year. In the cases where the expenditures related to these
encumbrances are no longer anticipated, these encumbrances should be cancelled and the savings
included in your second quarter report. Under separate cover, we will be sending departments a list of all
outstanding encumbrances. Departments should review this list to identify possible savings. By August
1, departments should provide justification to your DAS analysts for the continuation of encumbrances
that are more than a year old. Funds will be frozen for any operating encumbrance that is more than a old
CArcher_Email3013863

for which acceptable justification is not provided. Again, savings you identify through your review
process should be reflected in your second quarter projections.
Second Quarter Budget Projections – Today, instructions will be coming out from the Controller’s
office for completion of the second quarter projections. Review of recent departmental surpluses
indicates year-end surpluses have generally been achieved in wages, operating capital outlay and the
liquidation of unnecessary encumbrances. It is critical as you prepare your second quarter projections that
you make every effort to identify these savings now. It is also critical that you take steps as noted above
to voluntarily maximize and identify savings that can be used to offset the 2007 projected deficit.
As noted in the memo from the County Executive, DAS has been directed to complete the analysis of
second quarter projections within 30 days so that we can assess if the above measures will be sufficient to
balance the 2007 budget. Consequently, it is important that departments move quickly to complete the
review of your 2007 budget status with an eye towards generating savings. The results of your review
should be included and reflected in your second quarter projections.
In closing, given our most recent projections, I have struggled over the proper course of action the county
should take at this point. I am placing my confidence in you as department heads to work with your
managers and staff to rigorously identify steps that we can take now to avoid the need for more drastic
steps. To the extent the above procedures are successful in balancing the budget, we can avoid more
severe actions such as a hiring freeze, a purchasing freeze, or departmental levy reductions. It is
important that you identify savings now that we can count on so that we can assess whether further action
is needed
I thank you in advance for your cooperation. If you need additional fiscal information from DAS or if
you would like to discuss this further, please do not hesitate to contact me at 278-4179, your DAS
analysts or Scott Manske.

Good Morning,
        I know I provided a copy of this e-mail at our update yesterday, but
thought you might be interested in the letter from the Historical Society as
well. Obviously, we will push hard to try and have someone take ownership of
the remains before considering anything else.We'll keep you posted.
Regards,
George

John/Jack
Today I received 6 copies of the draft final report on a portion of the remains
(non-adult). Dr. Norm Sullivan of Marquette University wants to meet to
discuss the impacts of the report, a copy of which has been sent to the State
Historical Society (SHS).   Dr. Sullivan would also like to discuss the
custodianship or curatorship options for MU in the near future. These human
remains were dug up by County public works construction crews in 1991 on the
Milwaukee County Grounds.
Dr. Sullivan will also be sending me a copy of the transmittal letter to SHS.
We should further discuss the alternatives and costs for the County to re-inter
these human remains. This order from SHS could come within the next few
months. With 1,659 individual remains to be disposed of, at a potential cost
of $1500 per individual this could cost the County $2.5 million that is not
budgeted for at this time. On the other hand, perhaps we can find an
interested curator if the SHS considers this an option.
I will be sending a copy of the report to both of you and those copied to
review before the meeting.
Please give me some dates you are available in the next 2 to 3 weeks
Thanks

The attached is the SHS response letter to Marquette's response letter to SHS
via the County as discussed below. It again appears that the County will
become responsible for the remains in early 2008. Hopefully the reburial order
will have specifics as to the reburial options or requirements. In any event,
the County should try to determine the potential cost so we can consider the
cost for this reburial in the 2008 budget preparation. Things must be getting
serious since this is the first direct formal communication the County has
received about this since July of 1993.

Per our last meeting on this:
With 1,649 individual remains to be disposed of, at a potential cost of $1500
per individual this could cost the County $2.5 million that is not budgeted for
at this time.
County Corporation Counsel will investigate: (1) the County's options per State
law for body re-burial before SHS decides for the County; (2) verify what the
reporting requirements are per State law for the County before the SHS can
decide on a final disposition
Greg High will research the logistics of re-burial such as (1) manner of
re-burial or options available and associated costs and (2) suitable space
available on County lands,   The assumption is that we would first look to
re-bury the bodies at the existing County Grounds cemetery.
We should try to get answers to items 2 and 3 above before June 1 2007

John:
Dr. Norman Sullivan called me on 2/16/07 to let me know that the response
letter to the latest letter from SHS will be coming from Marquette University
officials to Milwaukee County within a few weeks. He indicated that Marquette
University officials met recently and decided to respond as an organization
with a letter to Milwaukee County and also send copies of this letter to
various people in State government, including the Governor's office.   At a
later date, Marquette may also request temporary curator ship of the human
remains until such time as the connection between the names on the County's
burial roster can be linked with the physical remains. This will require
substantial additional investigation under the guidance of Dr. Sullivan.
Marquette apparently will not allow the County to review a draft of the letter
from the University before it is mailed to us. No copy is to be forwarded to
SHS at this time.
Let me know if you have any concerns.
Thanks

For Immediate Release
Contact: Mark D. O’Connell
WCA Executive Director
1.866.404.2700

July 11, 2007

WCA on Assembly Budget: Some Good; Many Challenges
As with any document the size of the 2007-2009 Biennial State Budget that was passed
by the Assembly yesterday, the Wisconsin Counties Association (WCA) recognizes there
are a multitude of issues that can positively or negatively impact the state’s 72 counties
all within the same document.
“As with every state budget, there are items we like and dislike,” said WCA Executive
Director Mark D. O’Connell. “This version is no different and while there are things that
will benefit counties and the taxpayers, there are also some issues that will present
significant challenges to county governments around Wisconsin.”
WCA cited some of the issues that benefit counties, including:
Fines and Forfeitures and Legal Notices: The Assembly budget modifies current law to
allow counties to retain a larger percentage of overdue fines and forfeitures. It also
provides tools for local governments to experience cost savings when it comes to posting
legal notices, ordinances, etc.
Mandates: The budget also includes the creation of a mandates committee, as well as
prohibits the creation of any new unfunded mandates.
“Any unfunded mandate from the state is a no-win situation for counties and the
taxpayers,” said O’Connell. “There essentially are two solutions – raise taxes or cut
services, neither of which are attractive options. We are very happy that the issue of
mandates remains a priority of the legislature and as we always do, we look forward to
continuing our work with the state to end directives from the state that aren’t backed by
state funding.”
-More-

CArcher_Email3013881

WCA Budget ReleaseAdd OneBudget challenges cited by WCA include:
Shared Revenue: The Assembly version of the budget decreases payments to each county
by 5 percent. It deletes the provision recommended by the Governor and approved by the
Joint Committee on Finance (JCF) that would increase payments under the county and
municipal aid program by $15 million annually, beginning in 2008, and, instead, reduces
payments under the county and municipal aid program by $42,985,200 in 2008.
Levy Rate/ “Levy Freeze”: The Assembly version of the budget allows for a zero
percent increase or the percentage change in the county’s equalized value due to new
construction. On a positive note, it contains the same levy freeze exemptions proposed by
the Governor and added an exemption for county-wide emergency medical services
systems. It also creates a procedure under which local units of government may exceed
its levy increase limit if approved by referendum. This concept is very similar to TABOR.
“The Legislature voted down TABOR before, yet it has reappeared in a different form,”
said O’Connell. “This proposal doesn’t allow for any growth other than new construction
unless counties go to referendum, which would be an ineffective and dangerous way to
run this state.”
Youth Aids: The Assembly budget deleted the proposed creation of a county aid fund
and the proposed increases in the real estate transfer fee, therefore the proposed
increases for youth aids are not included in the Assembly budget. In particular, the
Assembly budget deleted the provision to provide approximately $27 million over the
biennium.
JCI rates: The Assembly budget did not make changes to the JCF version of the budget
when it comes to Juvenile Correctional Institution (JCI) rates; the rates counties pay per
day, per juvenile to house a juvenile in a state facility. The budget has a $269/day rate in
FY 08 and $279/day in FY 09 representing a 30-plus percent increase in rates charged to
counties. Without the increase in Youth Aids, this JCI increase will be borne directly by
the property tax.
Circuit Court Support Payments Funding: The Governor recommended that money
generated by an increase in the real estate transfer fee go to providing counties increases
for circuit court services. The Assembly budget maintains current law and deletes
approximately $19 million for increased funding to counties. It also deletes the JCF
provision that modified the distribution formula.
“While all of us who are involved in delivering government services are cognizant of
taxpayer dollars, there are duties and obligations we have to the citizens of this state to
support the quality of life we have here in Wisconsin,” said O’Connell. “The final budget
that comes out of the conference committee needs to meet these responsibilities.”

Hi Cindy. This is fine -- I left a hard copy with a few minor suggested edits

in conducting this exercise for Procurement and Employee Benefits. If you

Please review one last time. Molly, I will need the electronic document for
balances in 8500 series of accounts.
Who should be cc on this? On the one hand this is an operational issues and
perhaps Chair of Finance and Board staff does not need to be cc. Not sure.
Also, the Walker letter that I have also attached was sent to Holloway and
Cooley. Rob please advise who you want cc on this. Should we cc the same
people that were cc on Walker letter?
Molly, I believe in the past we did implement the attached reviews for all
departments included Courts and offices directed by elected offcials. Is this
correct? I think they would be covered by this process.
Bill, as we discussed you will need to send out the encumbrance docuements.
Those should go to the same departments on your list for quarterly projections
(I assume this includes the Courts and offices headed by elected officials).
Bill, once this goes out, lets review your corrrespondence related to 2nd
quarter projections then we can get that out.
Kat, when this is done we need to be sure to cc the two women in HR that were
at the meeting. We will then put it on our new fancy memo head that you
developed. :)

Hi Cindy.
Nice letter, as far as these types of letters go. :)
Unless I missed it, you should make sure that the County Board Chairman
receives a copy of these important communications as well.

Jim,
I have sent you a couple of e-mails regarding the projections for the mower
repair account expressing my concern at the rate the funds are being spent.
Currently we are estimating that the account will be exhausted in September.
That means that we will be done working on Parks mowing and other small
equipment at that time.
Do you want us to restrict the number of technicians working on the Parks
equipment thereby slowing down the rate of expenditure? Do you have another
idea? Please let us know how you want us to proceed.

Fw: Mower Repairs -- 2008 budget
Friday, July 13, 2007 12:24:45 PM

We need to look at this issue for 2008 budget. Is it more cost-effective given
the repair cost to purchase or lease purchase a new mower or mowers than repair
what we have? To know this you will need to know the cost of new mower, the
feasibility of lease purchase (and payment amount) and the cost of repairs each
year. I am not sure what kind mowers these are or how many they have -- I
suspect they are large $15k-$20K mowers. Chad, I would start with Fleet to get
their assessment regarding the need to replace some or all of these.

Pam we will need to rerun fringe next week. By then we will need to know the
revised POB based on the new pension estimate. We talked about this several
weeks ago and you were going to have Bond Counsel run it. This is the original
POB proposal, not the new one we have yet to meet on. Please let me know the
status and when we will get the new number. Thanks.

George, I will forward you an email I sent to Chad to look at this in the next
budget. I instructed him to work with Fleet for recommendations. The bottom
line is it more cost-effective at this point to replace some of these mowers
given their age and repair costs? I will send it to you. If we would also get
any report you prepare that would be helpful as well. Thanks.

Hi Cindy,
        You are correct, this is for Parks owned equipment repairs only.
However, this is about cost controls and managing to the budget. Everyone has
had to deal with the reality of old equipment. To a large extent, they've
remain their own worst enemy, because they have not budgeted money to replace
Parks owned equipment; also, their routine maintenance on this equipment is
minimal, which translates into more extensive repair cost. I am having a report
prepared to again bring this to their attention, along with a list of recent
examples. Here if I can help.
Regards,
George

Overtime
Friday, July 13, 2007 1:29:55 PM

At our team meeting we discussed the issue of overtime during the budget
process. It was concluded that overtime does not need my pre-approval. Molly
and Pam may however may have expectations from their perspective. Further as
we discussed, so that I can monitor workload and keep track of OT being
accrued, I would like you to submit a simple weekly form indicating the hours
worked each day. Kat will give you the forms. I would like you to give these
to Kat each Monday. In terms of OT worked at home, you can do it but I cannot
compensate for it so please do not include on these sheets. These forms are
only for my purpose will only be used during the budget process. You should
continue to fill out your official time sheet as you always have.
If any of you feel you are struggling with your workload, it is very important
that you let Molly, Pam and myself know. Don't struggle and don't let yourself
get too far behind without alerting us.
Thanks for all that you do!

        Federal Minimum Wage





Dr. Jackson: Congress has adopted legislation that will increase the Federal
Minium Wage to $5.85 effective July 24, 2007; $6.55 effective July 24, 2008
and $7.25 effective July 24, 2009. The Federal Minimum Wage increase will
impact the County in 2009 since the hourly rate for Park Worker 1 and Zoo
Worker 1 will drop below the new minimum wage rate of $7.25.   The 2008 County
rate for Park Worker 1 will be $7.1411 and the Zoo Worker 1 will be $6.8876.

George, I will forward you an email I sent to Chad to look at this in the next
budget. I instructed him to work with Fleet for recommendations. The bottom
line is it more cost-effective at this point to replace some of these mowers
given their age and repair costs? I will send it to you. If we would also get
any report you prepare that would be helpful as well. Thanks.

Hi Cindy,
        You are correct, this is for Parks owned equipment repairs only.
However, this is about cost controls and managing to the budget. Everyone has
had to deal with the reality of old equipment. To a large extent, they've
remain their own worst enemy, because they have not budgeted money to replace
Parks owned equipment; also, their routine maintenance on this equipment is
minimal, which translates into more extensive repair cost. I am having a report
prepared to again bring this to their attention, along with a list of recent
examples. Here if I can help.
Regards,
George

I take it these are Parks mowers that Fleet repairs and then charges the Parks
department?

Jim,
I have sent you a couple of e-mails regarding the projections for the mower
repair account expressing my concern at the rate the funds are being spent.
Currently we are estimating that the account will be exhausted in September.
That means that we will be done working on Parks mowing and other small
equipment at that time.
Do you want us to restrict the number of technicians working on the Parks
equipment thereby slowing down the rate of expenditure? Do you have another
idea? Please let us know how you want us to proceed.

Cindy,
        I asked A&E to summarize the status of the items Nykelwicz brought to
your attention. As you can see, they are all on target. The one I know he
really had some heartburn over was the doors at Wison Park. Again, this
project was already underway and changing the process to accommodate an earlier
completion date would have posed some legal problems, as well as, added cost to
the project. As the consultants, we provided advice and options, the choice to
stay with the original schedule was the customers call. Here if I can help.
Regards,
George

George:
Per your voice mail, here is the project information.
Project Schedules
Wilson Rec Doors - Administrative Contract Award being circulated for
signature - project on schedule per Parks specified schedule
Project Length: 100 calendar days
Estimated Amount of Contract: $100,000
Liquidated Damages Amount: $250.00/day
We anticipate that the door replacement project will be complete by September
15, 2007.
This schedule was developed and approved by the project team made up of Parks
and DTPW staff, taking into account the facility operational constraints and
the construction constraints such as product delivery lead time. We believe
that any condition that has the potential to compromise the health and public
safety of the staff or public citizens using the facility during the
construction period will be addressed by Parks staff and /or the contractor.
We did discuss the potential for expediting the door replacement to achieve an
earlier completion date. We discounted the use of Time and Material contracts
since the cost and effort to prepare public bid documents has already been
expended and the project has been publicly advertised.   Soliciting T&M quotes
at the same time that a project has been advertised publicly is not
appropriate.   We anticipate that performing the work using T&M contractors
would be more costly and the time to completion could not guaranteed to be
changed significantly.

Wilson Rec Ice Refrigeration Equipment - project is on schedule per Parks
specified schedule
Project Length: 120 calendar days
Estimated Amount of Contract: $660,000
Liquidated Damages Amount: $250.00/day
First Advertisement Date: 12/12/07
CArcher_Email3013999

Date Bid Documents are Available: 12/12/07
Bid Due Date: 1/05/08
Construction start: 3/01/08
We anticipate that the equipment installation will be complete by April 30,
2008.

Milwaukee County Pond and Lagoon Demonstration Project (Humboldt Lagoon is one
of three to be worked on) - project is on schedule
Public meeting on all three pilot lagoons scheduled by Parks for 7/17/07 at
Jacobus Pavilion
Project Length: 45 calendar days
Estimated Amount of Contract: $200,000
Liquidated Damages Amount: $250.00/day
Bid Due Date: 8/08/07
Construction start: September 4, 2007
We anticipate that the project will be complete by October 31, 2007.

Re: Fw: Painting Of The Murdale Building

George, my understanding is that Dennik has the go ahead from Mayo to use
$50,000 in economic development funds for this project. It requires approval
of the ED Committee. You may want to delay until that gets that approved.
That leaves a total of $190,000 -- the $140,000 that you identified and the
$50,000 that Dennik has identified. I am not aware that Dennik has identified
any block grant funds that can be used beyond the $50,000 in economic
development funds.
Rob, based on Jack's email below I am not sure the project scope is matching
what Drew is expecting. I thought we were going to do the option of the more
expensive window repair but I don't recall what the cost estimate was for this
but it was in excess of the $190,000 we had found. How did we go from $190,000
not being enough to a revised estimate of $150,000 ? Jack, George and Bob, we
better be sure that what we are doing is consistent with what Drew thought was
promised so there are no surprises.
Ed, just a reminder the CEX was going to meet with Drew to let him know that we
found some money to get this done. The point of the meeting was to let him
know that we are doing all we can do to assist and to let him know that the
2008 budgeted funds for Murdale will be only as much as the rent paid to us
allows. I recall that is only about $100,000 in 2008.

Hi Cindy,
        I am forwarding the attached e-mail for feedback. It involves two
items, the first is Muirdale, can you please advise if Bob Dennik has responded
to the availability of Block Grant money? As you can see below, we are moving
ahead as instructed with the work over at Muirdale, however, without the money
committed from ED, we will be short. In order to perform this work, we were
asked to go through our carryovers and free up money from previously committed
projects, we did and were able to forego approximately $140,000.00 in work. I
will sign off on the T&M contract because it's over $50,000, however, we want
to make sure we have all of the money we need. At this time, we do not as noted
below.
        The second item is that given that we've just gone through the
encumbered accounts in Facilities Management to release money, would it still
be necessary for Facilities Management to again go through this exercise for
the Mid-year adjustment? Your help in getting this resolved would be greatly
appreciated. Please give me a holler should you have any questions.
Regards,
George

As you are aware we had a meeting with Bill Drew of the Research Park Group
several weeks ago; present at this meeting was Rob Henken, Cindy Archer, Molly
Pahl and Bob Dennik. At the conclusion of that meeting Bob Dennik was to check
on "Block Grant" dollars to assist with this request for exterior painting of
the windows and screens as well as a complete re-sealing and re-striping of
the Murdale parking lots; for an approximate total of $ 150,000 (striping,
sealant of the parking lots and painting of the exterior) As of today I have
yet to hear if that money was ever procured.
Additionally, Facilities Management was asked if we could forgo carryover
projects from last year to accommodate this request. Facilities went thru
their carryovers accounts and informed tenants of a possible postponement of
several projects as well as several much needed scheduled maintenance projects
within the Milwaukee County Grounds Utilities Systems. Facilities was able to
forgo approximately $ 140,000 in projects from our carryover accounts.

CArcher_Email3014002

Facilities asked our Time and Material Contractor to update his proposal to
more reflect the new scope of work, today I received his new proposal of
$150,000. As you are aware the limit on a Time and Material contract is
$50,000. In order to exceed this amount, justification must be made as well as
the Department of Transportation and Public Works Director's signature.
Facilities Management has moved forward with Pablocki Paving for the paving
request in the amount of $9,800. As you can tell we are going to be
approximately $20,000 short from our carryover amount. Could you please advise
how would you like Facilities Management to proceed.

Re: Fw: Painting Of The Murdale Building

In response to your last question. I am asking all departments to do two
things -- one, if you have encumbrances that are older than a year old, I want
to see an explanation or justification why we need to proceed. Two, there are
unspent balances in the operating capital accounts (the 8600 series). These
accounts are frozen until departments submit their 2008 plan for spending these
funds.
In terms of recent encumbrances (less than a year old), I am not asking to see
these but merely alerting department heads that this may be one place you want
to look for savings.
The above is not really a big deal and should pose no problem for Jack to
submit. The longer we debate this the longer he is going to be held up. I
suggest that he just go ahead and write it up and send it in so we can move
ahead. I will give it my quick attention.
As the department head, you need to know that I will be expecting some savings
from DTPW -- whether is from facilities or elsewhere in the department does not
matter. For this reason, you may want to be involved in Jack's review. Just a
suggestion.

Fw: Champine Payout -- for the 2007 Fiscal Report Projections
Monday, July 16, 2007 8:54:17 AM

See Bill's note below. I will leave it to you to communicate whatever needs to
be communicated to departments but I am interested in how much this is in total
and if it should be reflected as an unfunded item on our projection sheet.
That is, is it material?

        Champine Payout -- for the 2007 Fiscal Report Projections





Champine Payout -- for the 2007 Projections -- questions were coming in -- is
there going to be a budget transfer to cover the additional actual cost to
        salaries. Some communication may need to be sent to people doing the
Fiscal Reports about how this is should to be handled in the 2007 projections
        due 07/27/07. This will have a impact on the projections.

        Thanks.

OBEB reestimate Cambridge contract
Monday, July 16, 2007 9:04:29 AM

Scott, my notes indicate that you intend to get authorization in September and
request a transfer from the contingency fund for a contract with Cambridge to
re-estimate our OBEB calculation. We had intended to do this in June cycle
but we could not get it done.
A couple comments, I am not sure how much this costs -- we have two options
however. We could try and fund it internally from savings Rob and Alex will
identify this week in DAS or we could go to contingency. This is more a
stategy call for Rob. The second issue, do we need to go to the Board only for
the transfer or also for authorization? I suspect it is both, but I am
sensitive to the timing because it will impact our 2008 budget. If all we need
is the transfer maybe we could still squeeze it in this cycle. Please advise.

Re run of fringe for 2008 budget
Monday, July 16, 2007 9:13:56 AM

Now that the budgets are in, we need to redistribute the fringe based on
department request. Also this is the time to re-estimate any components of the
fringe as we believe they have changed. I know the pension number has
changed. Pam, it is my understanding that you have had the POB calculation
re-run based on the new estimate. Please provide this to Scott.
Scott are we anticipating any further re-estimates of the fringe components at
this point? It seems Health is holding steady. Since we will run the
redistribution again at the end of the CEX process (late August) I think at
this point we should only re-estimate components that will have a material
impact (like pension).
I would like to meet in the AM to go over this. Kat please schedule meeting
with Alex, Molly, Pam and Scott. Thanks.

Here is the scope of work for the painting project at the Murdale site:
$150,000
All exterior wood windows and screens on the building will be hand scraped, all
bare wood will be spot primed and have one coat of 100% acrylic exterior latex
paint applied. All exterior hollow metal doors and frames will have loose
paint and rust removed and cleaned, all bare metal will be spot primed with one
coat of epoxy mastic and a top coat of a modified epoxy urethane applied.
Exterior hand rails and railings will be finished with the same system as the
doors and frames.
Here is the scope of work for the parking lot projects (two lots on site) at
the Murdale site: $ 9,200

CArcher_Email3014027

Thoroughly clean the pavement surface of all dirt, debris,and vegetation, using
a truck mounted power sweepers or air blowers. Soil sterilant will be applied.
Prime all petroleum stains with "Petrobond" bonding agent. Areas of excessive
oil build-up will be burned, as needed. Major cracks, 1/4" and wider must be
filled with (W.R. Meadows Hi Spec) polymerize joint sealer. Apply two coats of
commercial grade asphalt emulsion, approved silica sand shall be added to the
sealer at a rate of 6-7 pounds per gallon to enhance skid resistance.
Re-stripe the existing parking lot layout.
As far as the terms with Drew during the meeting; simply Milwaukee County
needed to re-evaluate our situation under the agreement with the Research Park
Group for the Murdale site. We reiterated our financial situation for 2007 ($0
dollars budgeted as it relates to expenditures and that Facilities was working
on a premise that the revenues collected by Milwaukee County will go towards
utilities and minor repairs). 2008 would be a similar situation; but that
Facilities Management would put an expenditure amount in it's budget with an
equal amount of revenue making the Murdale site a tax neutral cost center.
With that premise Drew's group would then need to take on more of the repairs
in the future. With that said, Milwaukee County would do it's very best to
work on the requests Drew's group had made.

we're proposing to do over there along with the cost; and what were the terms

All the more reason why we need to talk to Drew after the Exec has done so and
tell him exactly the scope of work we plan to do there and see if he is
satisfied. If he's not, then it sounds like we may need another meeting. We
may have room to compromise a little bit, as we should have $190,000 available
and the work Jack has laid out would only come to about $160,000.

George/Cindy
I asked the T&M to revise his estimate to reflect the painting portion and
remove the stone work that was orginally requested ( this is what we agreed to
at the meeting after Drew left ) otherwise we are looking at closer to $
250,000.

George, my understanding is that Dennik has the go ahead from Mayo to use
$50,000 in economic development funds for this project. It requires approval
of the ED Committee. You may want to delay until that gets that approved.
That leaves a total of $190,000 -- the $140,000 that you identified and the
$50,000 that Dennik has identified. I am not aware that Dennik has identified
any block grant funds that can be used beyond the $50,000 in economic
development funds.
Rob, based on Jack's email below I am not sure the project scope is matching
what Drew is expecting. I thought we were going to do the option of the more
expensive window repair but I don't recall what the cost estimate was for this
but it was in excess of the $190,000 we had found. How did we go from $190,000
not being enough to a revised estimate of $150,000 ? Jack, George and Bob, we
better be sure that what we are doing is consistent with what Drew thought was
promised so there are no surprises.
Ed, just a reminder the CEX was going to meet with Drew to let him know that we
found some money to get this done. The point of the meeting was to let him
know that we are doing all we can do to assist and to let him know that the
2008 budgeted funds for Murdale will be only as much as the rent paid to us
allows. I recall that is only about $100,000 in 2008.

Hi Cindy,
CArcher_Email3014030

        I am forwarding the attached e-mail for feedback. It involves two
items, the first is Muirdale, can you please advise if Bob Dennik has responded
to the availability of Block Grant money? As you can see below, we are moving
ahead as instructed with the work over at Muirdale, however, without the money
committed from ED, we will be short. In order to perform this work, we were
asked to go through our carryovers and free up money from previously committed
projects, we did and were able to forego approximately $140,000.00 in work. I
will sign off on the T&M contract because it's over $50,000, however, we want
to make sure we have all of the money we need. At this time, we do not as noted
below.
        The second item is that given that we've just gone through the
encumbered accounts in Facilities Management to release money, would it still
be necessary for Facilities Management to again go through this exercise for
the Mid-year adjustment? Your help in getting this resolved would be greatly
appreciated. Please give me a holler should you have any questions.
Regards,
George

George
As you are aware we had a meeting with Bill Drew of the Research Park Group
several weeks ago; present at this meeting was Rob Henken, Cindy Archer, Molly
Pahl and Bob Dennik. At the conclusion of that meeting Bob Dennik was to check
on "Block Grant" dollars to assist with this request for exterior painting of
the windows and screens as well as a complete re-sealing and re-striping of
the Murdale parking lots; for an approximate total of $ 150,000 (striping,
sealant of the parking lots and painting of the exterior) As of today I have
yet to hear if that money was ever procured.
Additionally, Facilities Management was asked if we could forgo carryover
projects from last year to accommodate this request. Facilities went thru
their carryovers accounts and informed tenants of a possible postponement of
several projects as well as several much needed scheduled maintenance projects
within the Milwaukee County Grounds Utilities Systems. Facilities was able to
forgo approximately $ 140,000 in projects from our carryover accounts.
Facilities asked our Time and Material Contractor to update his proposal to
CArcher_Email3014031

more reflect the new scope of work, today I received his new proposal of
$150,000. As you are aware the limit on a Time and Material contract is
$50,000. In order to exceed this amount, justification must be made as well as
the Department of Transportation and Public Works Director's signature.
Facilities Management has moved forward with Pablocki Paving for the paving
request in the amount of $9,800. As you can tell we are going to be
approximately $20,000 short from our carryover amount. Could you please advise
how would you like Facilities Management to proceed.

Re: Re run of fringe for 2008 budget -- on second thought...
Monday, July 16, 2007 5:42:52 PM

On second thought, maybe we should just reallocate the fringe based on
department requests alone and not re-estimate fringe components until the end.
My thinking is by just doing the relocations we will have a better idea of how
departments did in meeting our targets and we can hold whatever savings we have
for the CEX to use in completing his budget. Also, I know we need to get this
done ASAP and Scott has a lot on his plate. Why don't we just leave it as is?
We can track the savings we expect in our totals, but wait to redistribute them
at the end of the CEX process. Let me know your thoughts.

        Re run of fringe for 2008 budget





Now that the budgets are in, we need to redistribute the fringe based on
department request. Also this is the time to re-estimate any components of the
fringe as we believe they have changed. I know the pension number has
changed. Pam, it is my understanding that you have had the POB calculation
re-run based on the new estimate. Please provide this to Scott.
Scott are we anticipating any further re-estimates of the fringe components at
this point? It seems Health is holding steady. Since we will run the
redistribution again at the end of the CEX process (late August) I think at
this point we should only re-estimate components that will have a material
impact (like pension).

Hi Scott. Attached is a tentative DAS update agenda for Monday. Also attached
is a very rough draft of the strategic planning initiative that I have briefly
discussed with you on a few occasions and that I would like to again discuss on
Monday. This narrative also includes some themes that are consistent with some
of your recent statements of goals and accomplishments that I thought you might
wish to consider for the upcoming budget season. This is obviously very rough
and is simply intended at this time as food for thought.

CArcher_Email3014048

STRATEGIC PLANNING BUDGET INITIATIVE
The 2008 Recommended Budget contains $100,000 for a set of strategic planning
initiatives that are deemed essential to the County’s ability to responsibly and effectively
address its long-term fiscal challenges.
While the County’s overall fiscal condition has improved during the past year in light of
successful efforts to reduce the growth of employee health care expenditures and a
reduction in the Pension Fund’s accrued liability, the long-term prognosis remains
exceedingly difficult. The fundamental problem is that the County’s annual fixed costs
(e.g. employee wages and benefits, utilities, commodities, etc.) continue to grow at a rate
well above that of inflation, while key revenue streams over which it has little control
(e.g. sales tax, State/Federal revenue sources) are stagnant or diminishing. Meanwhile,
the main revenue stream over which the County does have some control – the property
tax – cannot be increased without further reducing economic growth and exacerbating the
very conditions that are challenging the County in the first place.
In order to address these challenges, the County must seek creative solutions to expand
its revenue base and its population without adding to the tax burden of its citizens; it must
develop innovative approaches for sharing or coordinating service delivery with other
units of government; it must lead efforts to increase economic growth in the County and
the region; and it must make difficult decisions regarding the affordability of maintaining
all of its existing services and assets.
Several initiatives contained in the Recommended Budget and submitted to the County
Board during the past year reflect those imperatives. The three strategic planning
initiatives detailed below are designed to provide an overriding focus.
o Long-Range Strategic Planning. The Recommended Budget appropriates $50,000
in DAS-Fiscal Affairs for consulting assistance to be used for Long-Range Strategic
Planning. This assistance shall specifically be utilized to assist a newly formed LongRange Strategic Plan Steering Committee (LRSPC) in defining core County services,
and ranking and prioritizing those services so that difficult budget decisions can be
made in the context of the County’s overall strategic priorities and mission. It is
anticipated that the new LRSPC will be formulated per recommendations from the
new Strategic Planning Operations Team, as suggested by a July 2007 report from the
DAS Director, Director of Audits and County Board Fiscal and Budget Analyst. That
report suggested the need to develop specific countywide priorities, and this
appropriation is intended to further that effort. It is also anticipated that the new
Long-Range Strategic Planning effort will produce a series of strategic goals for the
next five years that build off the strategic goals formulated by County departments in
2007 and that reflect the imperatives cited above.
o County Government Space and Facilities Plan. While the size of the County’s
full-time workforce has shrunk by nearly 20% during the past five years, it has made
few strategic decisions regarding its future space needs. In the meantime,

CArcher_Email3014049

maintenance needs continue to build at the Courthouse, Safety Building, Mental
Health Complex and other County facilities, while most are no longer fully occupied.
Furthermore, the County has struggled to make key real estate decisions (such as the
potential sale of 6th and State and the future of City Campus and the Mental Health
Complex) and individual departments have grappled with their own specific real
estate needs without the benefit of an overall County space and facilities plan to guide
those decisions. The Recommended Budget contains an appropriation of $50,000 in
DAS-Fiscal Affairs to be used for hiring a professional real estate consultant to assist
the Directors of DAS, Economic and Community Development and Transportation
and Public Works in developing a countywide space and facilities plan. It is
envisioned that this effort also would include members of the County Board and/or
County Board staff as an adjunct to the Long-Range Strategic Planning process. Key
components of the space and facilities plan will be:
 A comprehensive inventory of the existing space owned or leased by the
County for its employees and services, including both the annual operating
costs (or lease payments) and short- and long-term maintenance costs
associated with that space, and the terms of any long-term commitments in
leased properties.
 A comprehensive inventory of the existing space leased by the County to
outside entities, including the terms of any long-term commitments.
 The County’s projected need for space for its employees during the next
five years matched up against the amount of space it currently owns or
leases.
 A comprehensive inventory of employee parking facilities versus
projected employee parking needs.
 An assessment of the potential for consolidation of County departments or
services in fewer locations coupled with an assessment of which Countyowned buildings could be leased or sold.
 A listing and prioritization of the major real estate challenges facing
individual County departments and specific options to address those
challenges.
 Development of a set of guiding principles to assist the County in making
future real estate decisions and in developing an overall space and
facilities master plan.
o County Grounds/Milwaukee Regional Medical Center Master Plan. Milwaukee
County played a critical role in planning and developing the Milwaukee Regional
Medical Center (MRMC), which today is one of the premier economic engines for the
region. Today, key questions have surfaced regarding the County’s role as a member
of the MRMC and its overall presence on the County Grounds. As it considers the
possibility of selling the Mental Health Complex property, as it explores the exciting
opportunity to work with the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee on a new School of
Engineering in the Northeast Quadrant, and as it contemplates the future of the
Milwaukee County Research Park Corporation, there is a need for Milwaukee County
to work with other members of the MRMC and the business community at large to

CArcher_Email3014050

determine an overall vision for the County Grounds. This vision needs to be
consistent with the region’s emphasis on creating high-tech jobs, and it needs to
formally tie together in a cohesive fashion the individual long-term strategic
objectives of each MRMC member (including Milwaukee County) and the land use
planning efforts that they already have initiated. It also needs to re-examine and
provide clarity on the County’s future role in providing and supporting County
Grounds infrastructure. The Recommended Budget does not contain an appropriation
to support this initiative, but rather anticipates that the County and other MRMC
members will determine among themselves how to organize and support the planning
process. The Director of Administrative Services is authorized and directed to initiate
discussion with the MRMC members regarding this initiative and to report back to
the Finance and Audit and Economic and Community Development Committees by
February 1, 2008, regarding its progress.

Many of these seem like repeat comments that we have responded to before.
Scott, I was wondering if Natalie could help with this and if it would be
appropriate for her to draft a memo for your review and signature to
departments communicating the importance of such findings and any steps that
they need to take in terms of improving the accounting issues and budget issues
below. Would that help with the auditors in that we have actually done
something?

Hi Scott. I would be happy to draft the response to a couple of these
questions (the one on ethics and the one on revenue projections), but you will
obviously need to cover the rest, as well as the previous one on GASB rules and
related items, unless Cindy has other ideas. They are giving us a deadline of
July 20 -- I believe that's pretty unreasonable, particularly in light of the
fact that you are off until 7/16. If you would like me to talk to Jerry about
an extension, please let me know.

COUNTY-WIDE MATTERS
New Internal Control Testing Requirements For 2007
In March of 2006, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued eight new
auditing standards (#104-111) that will change the way auditors approach the audit process.
These changes are a direct result of the major frauds that have occurred in the United States in
the past several years. The new standards are intended to improve the auditors’ understanding
of you, the client, and the environment in which you operate, your internal controls, and the risks
involved in the audit. The auditor will be required to make a more rigorous assessment of the risk
of material misstatements based on that understanding. The result will be improved linkage
between the assessed risks, and the nature, timing, and extent of our audit procedures.
One of the concepts that affect most units of governments is the level of documentation of their
internal controls. We, as your auditors, have done a high level documentation of your processes
for our files. You, on the other hand, should theoretically have all of your major processes
contained in written documents in enough detail that another person could come in and fulfill the
requirements of a particular process by following the explanations.
The major areas that should be documented are:
Cash Receipts
Cash Disbursements
Investment Transactions
Receivables – Billings
Receivables – Collections
Purchasing
Receiving
Interfund Transactions

Inventories
Capital Assets – Additions and Retirements
Capital Assets – Depreciation
Debt Transactions
Payroll
Financial Reporting
Information Technology

For the current and past audits, we have been able to complete your audit without asking for
such documentation. However, beginning with your calendar year 2007 audit, we will be required
to ask you for complete documentation of your internal control systems, due to the new auditing
standards. Therefore, you should plan now to complete that documentation during 2007, so that
we can evaluate your compliance with the new rules during our audit of your 2007 financial
statements. We will be able to provide you with forms and other resources to assist you with
meeting the new requirements

COUNTY-WIDE MATTERS
Ethics Policies
(Repeated comment since 2005 report)
We conduct interviews with numerous County employees as part of our audit process. During
these interviews, several employees indicated that they think the County can do a much better
job at reminding employees about the County’s policies concerning ethical behavior. Currently,
employees are required to read over these policies during the hiring process. However, with the
exception of those employees who are required to complete an annual statement of economic
interest, employees are not trained on or reminded of these policies after they have been hired.
To maintain a strong ethical environment, we recommend that the County implement a process
whereby it communicates the importance of ethical behavior to its employees on a regular basis.
County’s Response

Outstanding Checks
(Repeated comment since 2004 report)
During our audit of various cash account reconciliations, we noted that many outstanding checks
were several years old. Outstanding checks should be reviewed on a regular basis to determine
which checks are no longer valid. While there may be a variety of reasons why the checks are
not cashed, it is up to the departments within the County to make every attempt to contact the
payee. For those checks that the County is unable to contact the payee, the County should
follow the procedures of regulating unclaimed funds as they are outlined in State statutes.
County’s Response

Cash Reconciliations
(Repeated comment since 2003 report)
During our audit of various cash account reconciliations, we noted numerous reconciling items
affecting a number of County departments that were not recorded in a timely manner into the
Advantage System. During its year end closing process, the County has three closing periods
and the Department of Audit completes cash reconciliations at each closing period, if necessary.
The unrecorded reconciling items are given to the various County departments after each
reconciliation is complete. We recommend that the departments throughout the County record
these unrecorded entries in a more timely manner to ensure accurate financial reporting of cash
on hand. We also recommend that a review be made of any material reconciling items during the
year end closing process to identify and resolve these reconciling items.
County’s Response

CArcher_Email3014056

COUNTY-WIDE MATTERS
Revenue Projections
(Repeated comment since 2003 report)
Adopting an annual budget is often viewed as one of the most important actions of a
governmental entity. Governmental entities make decisions about services and the allocation of
resources through the budget process. The quality of these decisions is dependent upon the
budget process employed. There are four commonly recognized components of effective
budgeting: 1) incorporating long-term planning, 2) developing clear budget guidelines, 3)
establishing a link between the budget process and goals and objectives, and 4) involving and
enhancing communication throughout the budget process.
The County decentralizes the responsibility of revenue projections for budget periods.
Historically, it appears that departments throughout the County have budgeted aggressively,
particularly as it relates to revenues. It now appears that the pendulum may have swung the
other way such that the departments are budgeting more conservatively rather then being
aggressive. Although conservative budgeting is generally a preferred scenario, this situation
may still leave County decision makers without the true financial picture of County operations at
any point in time. We recommend that the departments accurately and realistically evaluate their
revenue projections to timely identify shortfalls or surpluses. We also recommend that the
communication between the departments and budgeting administration improve to identify
unexpected shortfalls or surpluses.

DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES
GASB 45: Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits
Other Then Pensions
(Repeated comment since 2003 report)
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) has issued Statement 45 that establishes
standards for the measurement, recognition, and display of other postemployment benefits
(OPEB) expenditures and related liabilities(assets), note disclosures, and, if applicable, required
supplementary information (RSI) in the financial reports of state and local governmental
employers. The proposed statement will improve reporting in the following areas where the
current financial reporting fails to:
•
•
•

Recognize the cost of benefits in periods when the related services are received by the
employer.
Recognize information about the actuarial accrued liabilities from the promised benefits
associated with past services and whether and to what extent those benefits have been
funded.
Provide information useful in assessing the potential demands on the employer’s future
cash flows.

Statement 45 would be effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2006, for phase 1
governments (those with total annual revenues of $100 million or more). Since the County is a
phase 1 government, this would be calendar year 2007. We recommend that management
assess the potential OPEB accounting and financial reporting requirements that would be
required under this statement.
Department of Administrative Services Response

GASB No. 48: Sales and Pledges of Receivables and Future Revenues and Intra-Entity
Transfers of Assets and Future Revenues
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) has issued Statement 48 that establishes
criteria that governments will use to ascertain whether the proceeds received from the sales of
receivables and/or future revenues should be reported as revenue or as a liability. The issued
statement improves financial reporting by establishing consistent measurement, recognition, and
disclosure requirements that apply both to governmental and business-type activities when
accounting for these transactions. The Statement also requires that specific relevant disclosures
be made to inform financial statement users about the unavailability of future revenues that have
been pledged or sold.
Statement 48 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2006. We recommend that
management assess the applicability of this new Statement and any related financial reporting
requirements that may be needed under the new Statement.
Department of Administrative Services Response

CArcher_Email3014060

DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES (continued)

GASB No. 49: Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pollution Remediation Obligations
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) has issued Statement 49 which has modified
accounting and financial reporting standards for pollution (including contamination) remediation
obligations which are obligations arising from the effects of existing pollution and the related
remediation activities needed.
Under this new Standard, the government is required to estimate the components of expected
remediation costs and determine whether those costs should be accrued as a liability or, if
appropriate, capitalized when goods and services are acquired. This estimate is required to
occur under any of the following events:
•

The government is compelled to take pollution remediation action because of an
imminent endangerment.

•

The government violates a pollution prevention-related permit or license.

•

The government is named, or evidence indicates that it will be named, by a regulator as a
responsible party for remediation, or as a government responsible for sharing costs.

•

The government is named, or evidence indicates that it will be named, in a lawsuite to
compel participation in pollution remediation.

•

The government
remediation.

commences

or

legally

obligates

itself

to

commence

pollution

The Statement improves financial reporting by enhancing comparability of financial statements
among governments requiring all governments to account for pollution remediation obligations in
the same manner, including reporting of pollution remediation obligations that previously may not
have been reported.
Statement 49 is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2007. We recommend
that management analyze the methods currently used to calculate the liability for existing
remediation costs as well as evaluate whether there are any unknown or unrecorded remediation
costs that may be required to be disclosed under this new Statement.
Department of Administrative Services Response

CArcher_Email3014061

DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES (continued)
GASB No. 50: Pension Disclosures – an Amendment of GASB Statements No. 25 and No.
27
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) has issued Statement 50 which more closely
aligns the financial reporting requirements for pensions with those for other postemployment
benefits (OPEB) and enhances information disclosed in the notes to financial statements or
required supplementary information (RSI) by pension plans and by employers that provide
pension benefits. This Standard amends previously issued standards to conform with the
requirements of GASB Statement 43 and GASB Statement 45.
This Statement is effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2007. We recommend that
management review the new disclosure requirements and make plans to obtain the required
information for proper inclusion in the December 31, 2008 audited financial statements.
Department of Administrative Services Response

Other Proposed GASB Changes
The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) continues to propose changes to
governmental financial reporting. There are two issues which are being studied at this time which
will likely affect your financial statements in the future.
The first is a proposed change to the definition of certain funds and fund balance reporting.
GASB is considering tightening up the language in the standards which will not allow
governments to report money in special revenue, debt service, and capital project funds, unless
that money is truly restricted for such a specific use. In other words, to show such a fund, the
money would need to be restricted to a specific purpose by an outside agency or some kind of
law. All other funds that are currently reported separately would be combined with the general
fund.
This would mean that special revenue funds should not be used if the revenue of that fund were
not legally restricted for a particular function. Likewise, capital project funds should not be used
for presenting the accumulation of resources for a future fire truck purchase, as there typically is
no legal restriction on the use of that money.
The impact of these changes could be a reduction in the number of funds you present in the
annual financial statements. It does not necessarily affect the number of accounting funds you
have in your books, but you may need to combine some funds for financial statement purposes.
Also, state aid and limits on expenditures could be affected.
As part of this project, the GASB is also considering changes to fund balance reporting to make
it easier for the reader of financial statements to determine reserved fund balance vs. designated
fund balance vs. undesignated fund balance. Three different methods of presenting fund balance
are being considered. The final standard for these changes is expected to be issued in the fourth
quarter of 2007.
The second project likely to impact your financial statements is a GASB project on intangible
assets. Currently, there are almost no rules in the government sector covering intangible assets.
This rule would cover such things as water rights, air rights, patents, copyrights, and easements.

CArcher_Email3014062

DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES (continued)
Other Proposed GASB Changes (cont.)
The proposed guidance would require that you account for intangible assets the same way you
currently account for capital assets. In other words, you would record intangible assets at original
cost, and amortize that cost over the expected useful life of the asset. The impact on most
general purpose governmental entities would be the need to begin accounting for easements.
Almost all governments and their utilities have easements. The proposal includes retroactive
accounting for intangible assets, which would be a fair amount of effort in many cases. The new
standard is expected to be issued in 2007.
Department of Administrative Services Response

Financial Reporting
(Repeated comment since 2003 report)
Internal and external as well as statutory and non-statutory financial reporting is the
responsibility of Fiscal Affairs Division of the Department of Administrative Services. In
performing our initial review of the financial statement documents we noted inefficiencies and
delays in preparing financial reports which result in difficulty in meeting deadlines. During our
report review process, we are provided multiple copies of the financial statement documentation
at different stages of completion, making it difficult to perform an efficient and effective review of
that information. The Fiscal Affairs Division appears to be understaffed, making it difficult to
complete financial reporting timely. We recommend that procedures are taken to improve the
financial reporting process. The addition of staff or reduction of staff responsibilities outside of
central accounting functions may improve the financial reporting process and produce these
reports more timely.
Department of Administrative Services Response

Check Requests Documentation
(Repeated comment since 2003 report)
During our testing of accounts payable, we found a number of payments that were paid against
check requests that did not have third party documentation. The Department of Administrative
Services doesn’t have an official policy at this time that designates which check requests or
amounts can be paid without providing third party support. These check requests can not be
verified subsequent to payment due to the availability of the third party documentation. We
recommend that the Department of Administrative Services develop a policy to insure that check
requests are appropriately reviewed, supported and approved if no documentation provided.
Department of Administrative Services Response

CArcher_Email3014063

DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES (continued)
Petty Cash Reconciliation
(Repeated comment since 2002 report)
The County has not regularly reconciled petty cash amounts recorded on the County’s books and
records to the County ordinances establishing the petty cash amounts. Although the County
performed a reconciliation of petty cash amounts in 2006, the petty cash amounts recorded
exceed the amounts authorized in the ordinances. These petty cash amounts aggregated over all
the departments represent a significant resource for the County. Each department should be held
accountable for maintaining accurate records of their petty cash funds and reconciling these
amounts to the County’s books and records, including the authorizing ordinances. This will
increase each department’s accountability for petty cash disbursements as well as provide a
more accurate picture of the County’s funds available for such disbursements.
Department of Administrative Services Response

Internal Accounting Controls
(Repeated comment since 2002 report)
During the testing of internal control procedures related to payroll, it was noted that five
timesheets did not contain documentation of proper approval. We recommend that all timesheets
be reviewed and approved by appropriate supervisory personnel and that such approval be
documented. During the 2006 audit, we also noted four instances of W-4 forms not being on file
for employees. We recommend that the required payroll forms be on file for all employees in
accordance with Internal Revenue Service regulations.
Department of Administrative Services Response

Expedite Closing and Financial Reporting Process
(Repeated comment since 1999 report)
We noted that approximately 70 adjusting journal entries were made subsequent to April 1, 2007
relating to the 2006 financial statements, which is a significant increase from the number made
during the 2005 audit. We understand that several of the 2006 adjustments related to the
conversion entries needed to meet the requirements of GASB 34. However, we recommend the
County continue to investigate ways to reduce the number of adjusting entries made long after
the end of the fiscal year through use of interim closings throughout the year or a specific closing
schedule and data request to departments to be used for evaluation purposes.
Department of Administrative Services Response

CArcher_Email3014064

DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES (continued)
Funding Source of Capital Assets
(Repeated comment since 1988 report)
The capital asset system does not consistently identify all information required by Federal and
State guidelines related to capital asset records, including an identification of the funding source.
This deficiency has resulted in a finding of noncompliance with Federal and State laws and
regulations.
Department of Administrative Services Response

Tagging of Capital Assets
(Repeated comment since 1988 report)
We also noted that new assets purchased were recorded in the work-in-process account until
they were tagged, as opposed to when completed and placed in service. In addition, the
determination of completed capital projects is done prior to the final close, thus any invoices
received after that point, relating to the prior period are not reflected as part of the capitalized
cost. These classification differences were not material for financial reporting purposes;
however, we deem them significant enough to report to you.
Department of Administrative Services Response

Accrual of Progress Payments on Construction Projects
(Repeated comment since 1988 report)
Year-end closing procedures for the accrual of accounts payable do not reflect progress
payments on construction contracts, which understate capital projects expenditures and
additions to work-in-progress. Although the difference was immaterial for financial reporting
purposes, we deem it significant enough to report to you.
Department of Administrative Services Response

CArcher_Email3014065

DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES (continued)
Updating of Capital Asset System
(Repeated comment since 2000 report)
We recommend decentralizing the process of updating the capital asset system for additions and
disposals to the departmental level. Each department should be responsible for entering capital
asset additions and disposals directly into the capital asset system. Then, each department
should periodically submit all supporting documentation to the Department of Administrative
Services for review. This review should include procedures to ensure the information entered is
complete and accurate. The Department of Administrative Services’ review should include
performing a reconciliation of the capital asset system to the general ledger. It should be noted
that, the capital asset updating has been decentralized for the Fleet management vehicles and
Airport. During our testing of capital assets we were also unable to obtain support for two capital
asset items. Since the Department of Administrative Services has final approval, we recommend
that appropriate documentation be obtained before final approval is completed.
Department of Administrative Services Response

Depreciation of Betterments
(Repeated comment since 2002 report)
We noted that certain capital assets, specifically betterments to buildings, have not been
depreciated in the capital asset system but have been depreciated using spreadsheets due to
system depreciation calculation limitations. We understand that County personnel have identified
a way to utilize the capital assets system to depreciate betterments, but have not modified the
system due to cost issues. We recommend that the capital asset system be modified to property
calculate depreciation on certain betterment assets to ensure consistent and accurate reporting.
Department of Administrative Services Response

CArcher_Email3014066

DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES (continued)
Encumbrances/Expenditures
(Repeated comment since 1996 report)
The County does not reverse the encumbrances and record the liability for expenditures incurred
prior to the year-end for which a service has been provided or a good has been received. We
understand that due to current system limitations, it is impractical to change the encumbrance
process. The net unreserved fund balance and calculation of the current year surplus/deficit is
unaffected; however, the reserve for encumbrances may be overstated and the liability and fund
balance understated at year-end. It should be noted that for the 2006 financial statements, an
audit adjustment was made to reclassify the encumbrances, which were 2006 expenditures, to
liabilities in the Capital Projects Fund. However, the observation noted in the first sentence
remains applicable for encumbrances in the General Fund. We recommend that future system
modifications consider this issue, and that a process be implemented to review these items at
year-end to identify all expenditures incurred but not accrued.
Department of Administrative Services Response

Inventory Information Systems
(Repeated comment since 1996 report)
Currently the House of Correction (HOC) uses a separate automated inventory system. In
general, the HOC system is outdated and lacks the capabilities to efficiently meet the needs of
the respective departments. The House of Correction’s food service area was outsourced in
2003, which significantly reduces the inventory concerns raised in this recommendation.
We still recommend the following:
• The inventory systems should be integrated with the financial system, so that the DAS can
properly account for the inventory. The integrated system should be centrally maintained by
IMSD.
• Integrated systems would allow different users to view and more effectively manage
inventory levels. By doing so, the County may be able to reduce the amount of inventory and
more efficiently place inventory orders.
• All significant inventory items should be recorded on the system.
We were initially informed that the changes to the HOC inventory system were scheduled to be
performed in late 2000.

Hi Cindy. I don't have strong feelings, but my one very big concern is that we
will not have a good idea of the overall size of our hole until early to mid
August, by which time we will only have a few weeks to deal with it. If we can
do a pretty solid estimate without running fringes through the system, then it

        Re: Re run of fringe for 2008 budget -- on second thought...





On second thought, maybe we should just reallocate the fringe based on
department requests alone and not re-estimate fringe components until the end.
My thinking is by just doing the relocations we will have a better idea of how
departments did in meeting our targets and we can hold whatever savings we have
for the CEX to use in completing his budget. Also, I know we need to get this
done ASAP and Scott has a lot on his plate. Why don't we just leave it as is?
We can track the savings we expect in our totals, but wait to redistribute
them at the end of the CEX process. Let me know your thoughts.

        Re run of fringe for 2008 budget



CArcher_Email3014069



Now that the budgets are in, we need to redistribute the fringe based on
department request. Also this is the time to re-estimate any components of the
fringe as we believe they have changed. I know the pension number has changed.
Pam, it is my understanding that you have had the POB calculation re-run
based on the new estimate. Please provide this to Scott.
Scott are we anticipating any further re-estimates of the fringe components at
this point? It seems Health is holding steady. Since we will run the
redistribution again at the end of the CEX process (late August) I think at
this point we should only re-estimate components that will have a material
impact (like pension).
I would like to meet in the AM to go over this. Kat please schedule meeting
with Alex, Molly, Pam and Scott. Thanks.

divisions from the recently imposed budget freeze. For the last two such
initiative (2001, 2002), three divisions (Highway, Fleet, and GMIA) within the

Fleet Management - This division is responsible for winter operations and the
division is already at minimum staffing. Locking down on critical positions
could impact our ability to provide a reasonable turn around on winter
equipment.
Highway - This division also responsible for winter operations and the same
items under Fleet above apply to this division. Staffing for this division is

also critical, in that, it will be extremely important that vacancies realized
from this point forward be filled as soon as possible to ensure that come
November, staff are properly trained for winter operations. Also, the division
traditionally hires approximately 30 T.A.'s during the winter months.
GMIA - Expenditures at airport are recovered via the rates charged its tenants.
Again, a reduction in expenditures may result in a temporary reduction of
lease/rental space rates.

        I would also request consideration for some latitude with the
Facilities Management division. There are at least 4-5 projects that we feel
are critical for completion. Those items include:
Water System - The work on this water system out on the grounds was committed
to MRMC and is crucial if we are to minimize the risk of any more water main
breaks, especially come winter. These repairs have already been incorporated
into our rates and if the work if not completed. We caution that if the work is
not performed, it may be necessary to issue a credit back to the systems
customers.
Back up Generators - This is annual work that is required on these units and is
performed by an outside contractor. There is also one unit that requires a
significant amount of work ($5,000 - $10,000). These units are out at CATC and
Children's Courts and are necessary for emergency back up power in the event of
an electrical outage.
Cooling Towers - It was anticipated that these repairs would be made to cooling
towers (HVAC) at the Courthouse before the start of the winter season.
Street Lighting Project - This is another project that was promised to MRMC and
is about half completed. This would include the lights on 87th and 92nd
Street. The materials were not purchases all at one time because of the
uncertainty of the amount of materials and parts needed; this could only be
determined as the work progressed.
        Any help and consideration you could give us with the above request
would be greatly appreciated. Please feel free to give me a call should you
have any questions or if we can be of any help.
Regards.
George

George, I am not prepared to give blanket exemptions to any department.
However, I will forward the below projects to Chad who will contact your staff
and bring forward a recommendation. Please keep in mind my comments from
yesterday's Cabinet meeting. I need every department to take this excersise
seriously. Also, there is not a hiring freeze. If positions are needed they
should be submitted with the justication form. We will look a the below and
get back to you ASAP.
Thanks.

George, with regards to the four projects listed below, Jack has informed Chad
that there is a larger list that he is working on related to needed capital
expenditures. Jack's list includes the four items below. We will look at the
entire list when it gets here. As a suggestion and to speed things along, for
the most part the narratives below do not provide justification as to why these
are critical nor are 2007 cost and accounts identified. Things that are
critical need a full explanation of why the project needs to move forward
and/or the consequences of not moving forward. Please be sure to identify the
cost and the account as well
I wanted to get back to you and I was not sure that you knew a larger list is
being submitted to DAS that includes the below.
Thanks.

November, staff are properly trained for winter operations. Also, the division
traditionally hires approximately 30 T.A.'s during the winter months.
GMIA - Expenditures at airport are recovered via the rates charged its tenants.
Again, a reduction in expenditures may result in a temporary reduction of
lease/rental space rates.

        I would also request consideration for some latitude with the
Facilities Management division. There are at least 4-5 projects that we feel
are critical for completion. Those items include:
Water System - The work on this water system out on the grounds was committed
to MRMC and is crucial if we are to minimize the risk of any more water main
breaks, especially come winter. These repairs have already been incorporated
into our rates and if the work if not completed. We caution that if the work is
not performed, it may be necessary to issue a credit back to the systems
customers.
Back up Generators - This is annual work that is required on these units and is
performed by an outside contractor. There is also one unit that requires a
significant amount of work ($5,000 - $10,000). These units are out at CATC and
Children's Courts and are necessary for emergency back up power in the event of
an electrical outage.
Cooling Towers - It was anticipated that these repairs would be made to cooling
towers (HVAC) at the Courthouse before the start of the winter season.
Street Lighting Project - This is another project that was promised to MRMC and
is about half completed. This would include the lights on 87th and 92nd
Street. The materials were not purchases all at one time because of the
uncertainty of the amount of materials and parts needed; this could only be
determined as the work progressed.
        Any help and consideration you could give us with the above request
would be greatly appreciated. Please feel free to give me a call should you
have any questions or if we can be of any help.
Regards.
George

Ariport operating capital -- unfreeze 8500 accounts
Wednesday, July 18, 2007 2:43:11 PM

Mr. Manske, after further internal discussions please unfreeze the 8500
accounts for the Airport. Expenditures from these accounts will not be
reviewed by DAS. We are still requesting a review of Airport operating
encumbraces that are over a year old per my memo so that we can clean up the
system. The process for filling positions for the Airport will remain the same
as outlined for all departments per my memo.
Thanks.

Hello.
Attached is a "first cut" of the major fiscal impacts of the various 2007-09
State Budget versions could have on Milwaukee County. I've been plugging in
#'s mostly generated by the Legislative Fiscal Bureau. In the area of JCI
rates, the impact may be greater because DHHS has been using an ADP that is
higher than the Fiscal Bureau's.
We also eliminated the column for the impact on the first six months of 2009.
And the year by year impact of the Joint Finance version. I wanted to fit it
(legibly) on one legal sized piece of paper.
Obviously, a lot of numbers need to be developed and checked. I'll let you
know which ones we are having difficulty in obtaining. If you have any
comments on the layout, or other suggestions to improve, please let me know.

        Comments on 2006 Internal Control Letter





Steve –
I’ve attached responses to County-Wide comments and the DAS comments in the
Memorandum of Internal Control. In an effort to make this report more useful
to the County, I would like to move away from the more informal nature that
this document has become. Due to the age and nature of many of the comments,
the County Board and County Administration does not give the report very much,
if any, attention. I would like to start taking a different approach to the
report and am asking for your assistance.
As a very basic step, I am requesting that VK separate the informational
comments on new GASB standards from the recommendations. This allows for some
distinction between the need for the County to take corrective action vs. the
need for the County to prepare for future changes. I have included some header
changes in the attached document to separate out the informational comments.
I look forward to your comments. I am sending this document to you first since
I am asking for the deletion of certain comments. If you do not wish to go
this direction, please let me know.

DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES – INFORMATIONAL COMMENTS
GASB 45: Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits
Other Then Pensions (12/31/03)
(Repeated comment since 2003 report)
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) has issued Statement 45 that establishes
standards for the measurement, recognition, and display of other postemployment benefits
(OPEB) expenditures and related liabilities(assets), note disclosures, and, if applicable, required
supplementary information (RSI) in the financial reports of state and local governmental
employers. The proposed statement will improve reporting in the following areas where the
current financial reporting fails to:
•
•
•

Recognize the cost of benefits in periods when the related services are received by the
employer.
Recognize information about the actuarial accrued liabilities from the promised benefits
associated with past services and whether and to what extent those benefits have been
funded.
Provide information useful in assessing the potential demands on the employer’s future
cash flows.

Statement 45 would be effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2006, for phase 1
governments (those with total annual revenues of $100 million or more). Since the County is a
phase 1 government, this would be calendar year 2007. We recommend that management
assess the potential OPEB accounting and financial reporting requirements that would be
required under this statement.
Formatted

Department of Administrative Services Response
Milwaukee County will implement this new standard in 2007. An actuarial report was
completed in 2006 as part of the continuing evaluation of the impact of the GASB 45
standard on other post employment benefits. Additional review will be made of the
standard, based upon the actuarial report, and the options that the County has in
adopting GASB 45.
GASB No. 48: Sales and Pledges of Receivables and Future Revenues and Intra-Entity
Transfers of Assets and Future Revenues (12/31/06)
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) has issued Statement 48 that establishes
criteria that governments will use to ascertain whether the proceeds received from the sales of
receivables and/or future revenues should be reported as revenue or as a liability. The issued
statement improves financial reporting by establishing consistent measurement, recognition, and
disclosure requirements that apply both to governmental and business-type activities when
accounting for these transactions. The Statement also requires that specific relevant disclosures
be made to inform financial statement users about the unavailability of future revenues that have
been pledged or sold.
Statement 48 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2006. We recommend that
management assess the applicability of this new Statement and any related financial reporting
requirements that may be needed under the new Statement.
Department of Administrative Services Response

CArcher_Email3014097

DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES – INFORMATIONAL COMMENTS (continued)
The Department of Administrative Services and the Department of Audit recognize the
effect of changes to auditing standards and will work with the external auditors to ensure
smooth implementation of the new standards are implemented properly.
GASB No. 49: Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pollution Remediation Obligations
(12/31/06)
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) has issued Statement 49 which has modified
accounting and financial reporting standards for pollution (including contamination) remediation
obligations which are obligations arising from the effects of existing pollution and the related
remediation activities needed.
Under this new Standard, the government is required to estimate the components of expected
remediation costs and determine whether those costs should be accrued as a liability or, if
appropriate, capitalized when goods and services are acquired. This estimate is required to
occur under any of the following events:
•

The government is compelled to take pollution remediation action because of an
imminent endangerment.

•

The government violates a pollution prevention-related permit or license.

•

The government is named, or evidence indicates that it will be named, by a regulator as a
responsible party for remediation, or as a government responsible for sharing costs.

•

The government is named, or evidence indicates that it will be named, in a lawsuit to
compel participation in pollution remediation.

•

The government

or

itself

to

The Statement improves financial reporting by enhancing comparability of financial statements
among governments requiring all governments to account for pollution remediation obligations in
the same manner, including reporting of pollution remediation obligations that previously may not
have been reported.
Statement 49 is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2007. We recommend
that management analyze the methods currently used to calculate the liability for existing
remediation costs as well as evaluate whether there are any unknown or unrecorded remediation
costs that may be required to be disclosed under this new Statement.
Department of Administrative Services Response
The Department of Administrative Services and the Department of Audit recognize the
effect of changes to auditing standards and will work with the external auditors to ensure
smooth implementation of the new standards are implemented properly.

CArcher_Email3014098

DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES – INFORMATIONAL COMMENTS (continued)
GASB No. 50: Pension Disclosures – an Amendment of GASB Statements No. 25 and No.
27 (12/31/06)
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) has issued Statement 50 which more closely
aligns the financial reporting requirements for pensions with those for other postemployment
benefits (OPEB) and enhances information disclosed in the notes to financial statements or
required supplementary information (RSI) by pension plans and by employers that provide
pension benefits. This Standard amends previously issued standards to conform with the
requirements of GASB Statement 43 and GASB Statement 45.
This Statement is effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2007. We recommend that
management review the new disclosure requirements and make plans to obtain the required
information for proper inclusion in the December 31, 2008 audited financial statements.
Department of Administrative Services Response
The Department of Administrative Services and the Department of Audit recognize the
effect of changes to auditing standards and will work with the external auditors to ensure
smooth implementation of the new standards are implemented properly.
Other Proposed GASB Changes
The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) continues to propose changes to
governmental financial reporting. There are two issues which are being studied at this time which
will likely affect your financial statements in the future.
The first is a proposed change to the definition of certain funds and fund balance reporting.
GASB is considering tightening up the language in the standards which will not allow
governments to report money in special revenue, debt service, and capital project funds, unless
that money is truly restricted for such a specific use. In other words, to show such a fund, the
money would need to be restricted to a specific purpose by an outside agency or some kind of
law. All other funds that are currently reported separately would be combined with the general
fund.
This would mean that special revenue funds should not be used if the revenue of that fund were
not legally restricted for a particular function. Likewise, capital project funds should not be used
for presenting the accumulation of resources for a future fire truck purchase, as there typically is
no legal restriction on the use of that money.
The impact of these changes could be a reduction in the number of funds you present in the
annual financial statements. It does not necessarily affect the number of accounting funds you
have in your books, but you may need to combine some funds for financial statement purposes.
Also, state aid and limits on expenditures could be affected.
As part of this project, the GASB is also considering changes to fund balance reporting to make
it easier for the reader of financial statements to determine reserved fund balance vs. designated
fund balance vs. undesignated fund balance. Three different methods of presenting fund balance
are being considered. The final standard for these changes is expected to be issued in the fourth
quarter of 2007.

CArcher_Email3014099

DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES – INFORMATIONAL COMMENTS (continued)
The second project likely to impact your financial statements is a GASB project on intangible
assets. Currently, there are almost no rules in the government sector covering intangible assets.
This rule would cover such things as water rights, air rights, patents, copyrights, and easements.
Other Proposed GASB Changes (cont.)
The proposed guidance would require that you account for intangible assets the same way you
currently account for capital assets. In other words, you would record intangible assets at original
cost, and amortize that cost over the expected useful life of the asset. The impact on most
general purpose governmental entities would be the need to begin accounting for easements.
Almost all governments and their utilities have easements. The proposal includes retroactive
accounting for intangible assets, which would be a fair amount of effort in many cases. The new
standard is expected to be issued in 2007.
Department of Administrative Services Response
The Department of Administrative Services will continue to present the books and
recordsfinancial records of Milwaukee County in such a manner that the audit of the
financial statements should indicate no material weaknessescomplies with all applicable
GASB standards..

DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES – PROCEDURAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Financial Reporting (12/31/03)
(Repeated comment since 2003 report)
Internal and external as well as statutory and non-statutory financial reporting is the
responsibility of Fiscal Affairs Division of the Department of Administrative Services. In
performing our initial review of the financial statement documents we noted inefficiencies and
delays in preparing financial reports which result in difficulty in meeting deadlines. During our
report review process, we are provided multiple copies of the financial statement documentation
at different stages of completion, making it difficult to perform an efficient and effective review of
that information. The Fiscal Affairs Division appears to be understaffed, making it difficult to
complete financial reporting timely. We recommend that procedures are taken to improve the
financial reporting process. The addition of staff or reduction of staff responsibilities outside of
central accounting functions may improve the financial reporting process and produce these
reports more timely. Is the County missing external reporting deadlines? Is this causing financial
loss to the County? Is the County paying additional audit fees due to then inefficiencies
discussed above? This may be useful information to provide in the update.
Update (12/31/06)

Formatted

Department of Administrative Services Response
The Department of Administrative Services – Fiscal Affairs Division has received County
Board approval to fill the position of Deputy Controller. The Deputy Controller will assist
staff with resolving complex accounting issues in a timely manner. This will allow staff to
reconcile accounts and prepare accurate schedules for the auditors in a more timely
manner. It will also serve to reduce the number of journal entries made during the audit
process; therefore, reducing the need to to continually provide updated schedules to the
auditors.

Check Requests Documentation (12/31/03)
(Repeated comment since 2003 report)
During our testing of accounts payable, we found a number of payments that were paid against
check requests that did not have third party documentation. The Department of Administrative
Services doesn’t have an official policy at this time that designates which check requests or
amounts can be paid without providing third party support. These check requests can not be
verified subsequent to payment due to the unavailability (?) of the third party documentation. We
recommend that the Department of Administrative Services develop a policy to insure that check
requests are appropriately reviewed, supported and approved if no documentation provided.
Update (12/31/06)
Formatted

CArcher_Email3014101

DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES – PROCEDURAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Department of Administrative Services Response
Request Removal of this Comment: The County’s current policy allows departments to
submit check requests to the Department of Administrative Services for certain types of
payment. The policy also allows DAS to issue a check for payment based upon these
check requests without third party documentation. The use of check requests places the
responsibility to verify that the payment is being made for authorized services and is
allowable within the department’s budget. DAS relies upon the department signature on
the check request as support for payment. When received by the Department of
Administrative Services, the check requests are examined to determine if the payment
could have occurred through either the procurement process, or could have been made
by contract. Based upon this review, DAS may deny payment until third party verification
is received. Key: this is a policy choice made by the County. The County has assessed
the risks associated with the policy and does not feel the policy warrants a change.

Petty Cash Reconciliation (12/31/02)
(Repeated comment since 2002 report)
The County has not regularly reconciled petty cash amounts recorded on the County’s books and
records to the County ordinances establishing the petty cash amounts. Although the County
performed a reconciliation of petty cash amounts in 2006, the petty cash amounts recorded
exceed the amounts authorized in the ordinances. These petty cash amounts aggregated over all
the departments represent a significant resource for the County. Each department should be held
accountable for maintaining accurate records of their petty cash funds and reconciling these
amounts to the County’s books and records, including the authorizing ordinances. This will
increase each department’s accountability for petty cash disbursements as well as provide a
more accurate picture of the County’s funds available for such disbursements.
Update (12/31/06)

Formatted

Department of Administrative Services Response
In 2007, the County updated its petty cash ordinances to authorize the current petty cash
balances in each County department. The discrepancies found during the Department of
Administrative Services review were due to petty cash accounts that had been closed by
departments without notification to the this Department.

Internal Accounting Controls - Payroll (12/31/02)
(Repeated comment since 2002 report)
During the testing of internal control procedures related to payroll, it was noted that five
timesheets did not contain documentation of proper approval. We recommend that all timesheets
be reviewed and approved by appropriate supervisory personnel and that such approval be
documented.
Update (12/31/06)

Formatted

During the 2006 audit, we also noted four instances of W-4 forms not being on file for
employees. We recommend that the required payroll forms be on file for all employees in
accordance with Internal Revenue Service regulations.
Department of Administrative Services Response
If this is not a consistent audit finding (i.e. – did not find any timesheets w/out
approval during the last couple of audits), request removal of the comment.
Otherswise, can use the same response as last year:
Our department will continue to remind other departments of their responsibility
for the review and approval of employee timesheets

Formatted
Formatted

Request Removal of Comment on W-4’s: the Department of Administrative
Services – Fiscal Affairs Division can ask but cannot enforce the preparation of
the W-4’s. If a W-4 is not obtained for an employee, the IRS regulation default
employee payroll records to single with zero withholdings. The County is
complying with its legal obligation and there is no financial impact to the County.

Formatted

Expedite Closing and Financial Reporting Process
(Repeated comment since 1999 report)
We noted that approximately 70 adjusting journal entries were made subsequent to April 1, 2007
relating to the 2006 financial statements, which is a significant increase from the number made
during the 2005 audit. We understand that several of the 2006 adjustments related to the
conversion entries needed to meet the requirements of GASB 34. However, we recommend the
County continue to investigate ways to reduce the number of adjusting entries made long after
the end of the fiscal year through use of interim closings throughout the year or a specific closing
schedule and data request to departments to be used for evaluation purposes.
Department of Administrative Services Response
This comment is related to and similar in nature to the Financial Reporting
comment – request that you combine the two comments.

CArcher_Email3014103

DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES – PROCEDURAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Funding Source of Capital Assets (12/31/88)
(Repeated comment since 1988 report)
The capital asset system does not consistently identify all information required by Federal and
State guidelines related to capital asset records, including an identification of the funding source.
This deficiency has resulted in a finding of noncompliance with Federal and State laws and
regulations.
Update (12/31/06)

Formatted

Department of Administrative Services Response
Request Removal of this Comment unless VK has found specific instances during its
testing that the County did not properly identify assets acquired with Federal or State
funds.
Last year’s response: The Department of Administrative Services is aware that if the
County sells an asset that was acquired with Federal or State funds, the County would be
required to turn the sale proceeds over to the granting agency. The primary County
departments that receive Federal or State funding for the purchase or construction of
capital assets are the Transit System, the Airport and the Highway Department. The
Transit System and the Airport each maintain separate records for all assets acquired
with Federal or State funds. The Highway Department receives Federal and State funds
primarily for assets that cannot be sold such as highways and bridges. The remaining
departments that receive Federal or State grants for the purchase of capital assets are
required to identify the funding source the County’s capital asset system. DAS will
remind departments of the need to complete the funding source field when reporting
assets to be capitalized.
.

Tagging of Capital Assets (12/31/88)
(Repeated comment since 1988 report)
We also noted that new assets purchased were not removed fromrecorded in the work-inprocess account until they were tagged, as opposed to when completed and placed in service. In
addition, the determination of completed capital projects is done prior to the final close, thus any
invoices received after that point, relating to the prior period are not reflected as part of the
capitalized cost in the current year. These classification differences were not material for
financial reporting purposes; however, we deem them significant enough to report to you.
Update (12/31/06)

Formatted

Department of Administrative Services Response
The fixed asset sub-system does not allow an asset to be entered as a capital asset until
a tag number is prepared; therefore capital assets cannot be removed from work-inprocess until a tag number is assigned. The Department of Administrative Services will
review the process for assigning tag numbers to determine if they can be assigned in
conjunction with the date the asset is completed and placed in service. We will also
review the major capital asset projects at year-end to determine if if significant payments
were made after the asset is capitalized and adjustments will be made as necessary.

Accrual of Progress Payments on Construction Projects
(Repeated comment since 1988 report)
Year-end closing procedures for the accrual of accounts payable do not reflect progress
payments on construction contracts, which understate capital projects expenditures and
additions to work-in-progress. Although the difference was immaterial for financial reporting
purposes, we deem it significant enough to report to you.
Department of Administrative Services Response
Request removal of this comment due to immateriality and the fact that the County is not
going to implement any changes. Unless the County’s procedures related to this
comment produce material misstatement of the financial statements, the County has
made a policy choice to maintain its current method of operation.

Updating of Capital Asset System (12/31/00)
(Repeated comment since 2000 report)
We recommend decentralizing the process of updating the capital asset system for additions and
disposals to the departmental level. Each department should be responsible for entering capital
asset additions and disposals directly into the capital asset system. Then, each department
should periodically submit all supporting documentation to the Department of Administrative
Services for review. This review should include procedures to ensure the information entered is
complete and accurate. The Department of Administrative Services’ review should include
performing a reconciliation of the capital asset system to the general ledger. It should be noted
that, the capital asset updating has been decentralized for the Fleet management vehicles and
Airport. During our testing of capital assets we were also unable to obtain support for two capital
asset items. Since the Department of Administrative Services has final approval, we recommend
that appropriate documentation be obtained before final approval is completed.

Department of Administrative Services Response
Request Removal of Comment: County does not agree that decentralization would
improve the fixed asset accounting process.
Last year’s response: Curently, the Department of Administrative Services sends an
excel spreadsheet detailing the monthly fixed asset additions to each department for
review. The departments decide which items are to be capitalized and which ones are to
be expensed. The Department of Administrative Services enters all assets to be
capitalized (except the Airport) and reconciles the General Ledger with the Capital Asset
System on a monthly basis. For various reasons, some of the departments do not
consistently return the information in a timely manner. All additions received by the
Department of Administrative Services are entered into the Capital Asset System and
reconciled by year-end. The Department of Administrative Services believes this process
provides greater control and accuracy over the fixed asset records than would occur
under a decentralized system.

DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES – PROCEDURAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Depreciation of Betterments (12/31/02)
(Repeated comment since 2002 report)
We noted that certain capital assets, specifically betterments to buildings, have not been
depreciated in the capital asset system but have been depreciated using spreadsheets due to
system depreciation calculation limitations. We understand that County personnel have identified
a way to utilize the capital assets system to depreciate betterments, but have not modified the
system due to cost issues. We recommend that the capital asset system be modified to property
calculate depreciation on certain betterment assets to ensure consistent and accurate reporting.
Department of Administrative Services Response
Request removal of this comment due to the immateriality and the fact that once all
assets being depreciated manually are fully depreciated, this will no longer be an issue.
Key – the assets are being depreciated and the numbers being reported are accurate –
they’re just being depreciated using a spreadsheet instead of the fixed asset system.

Encumbrances/Expenditures (12/31/96)
(Repeated comment since 1996 report)
The County does not reverse the encumbrances and record the liability for expenditures incurred
prior to the year-end for which a service has been provided or a good has been received. We
understand that due to current system limitations, it is impractical to change the encumbrance
process. The net unreserved fund balance and calculation of the current year surplus/deficit is
unaffected; however, the reserve for encumbrances may be overstated and the liability and fund
balance understated at year-end.
Update (12/31/06)

Formatted

It should be noted that fFor the 2006 financial statements, an audit adjustment was made
to reclassify the encumbrances, which were 2006 expenditures, to liabilities in the Capital
Projects Fund. However, the observation noted in the first sentenceabove remains
applicable for encumbrances in the General Fund. We recommend that future system
modifications consider this issue, and that a process be implemented to review these
items at year-end to identify all expenditures incurred but not accrued.
Department of Administrative Services Response
Due to budgetary constraints, a system modification is not possible at this time. We
attempted to pursue changes through the financial system vendor, but they are no longer
making changes to the County’s version of their product. We will have to continue the
current process of identifying expenditures after year-end that should have been accrued
or where encumbrances should have been eliminated

Formatted

Due to the carryover of encumbrances by Milwaukee County, we do not consider this item
to be material to the financial reporting of the County.

DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES – PROCEDURAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Inventory Information Systems (12/31/96)
(Repeated comment since 1996 report)
Currently the House of Correction (HOC) uses a separate automated inventory system. In
general, the HOC system is outdated and lacks the capabilities to efficiently meet the needs of
the respective departments. The House of Correction’s food service area was outsourced in
2003, which significantly reduces the inventory concerns raised in this recommendation.
We still recommend the following:
• The inventory systems should be integrated with the financial system, so that the DAS can
properly account for the inventory. The integrated system should be centrally maintained by
IMSD.
• Integrated systems would allow different users to view and more effectively manage
inventory levels. By doing so, the County may be able to reduce the amount of inventory and
more efficiently place inventory orders.
• All significant inventory items should be recorded on the system.
We were initially informed that the changes to the HOC inventory system were scheduled to be
performed in late 2000.
Update (12/31/06)

Formatted

Department of Administrative Services Response
Request Removal of Comment based upon immateriality of HOC inventory. The HOC
system may be outdated but it does not have a significantly adverse impact on County
operations to warrant spending County resources to update.
Last year’s comment: Due to the immateriality of the HOC inventory, there is no effort
being made at this time to convert the HOC inventory to the Centralized Inventory system
in the Financial System of Milwaukee County. We will review the House of Correction
process for taking year-end inventory and implement suggestions for improvement.

COUNTY-WIDE MATTERS
Informational: New Internal Control Testing Requirements For 2007
In March of 2006, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued eight new
auditing standards (#104-111) that will change the way auditors approach the audit process.
These changes are a direct result of the major frauds that have occurred in the United States in
the past several years. The new standards are intended to improve the auditors’ understanding
of you, the client, and the environment in which you operate, your internal controls, and the risks
involved in the audit. The auditor will be required to make a more rigorous assessment of the risk
of material misstatements based on that understanding. The result will be improved linkage
between the assessed risks, and the nature, timing, and extent of our audit procedures.
One of the concepts that affect most units of governments is the level of documentation of their
internal controls. We, as your auditors, have done a high level documentation of your processes
for our files. You, on the other hand, should theoretically have all of your major processes
contained in written documents in enough detail that another person could come in and fulfill the
requirements of a particular process by following the explanations.
The major areas that should be documented are:
Cash Receipts
Cash Disbursements
Investment Transactions
Receivables – Billings
Receivables – Collections
Purchasing
Receiving
Interfund Transactions

Inventories
Capital Assets – Additions and Retirements
Capital Assets – Depreciation
Debt Transactions
Payroll
Financial Reporting
Information Technology

For the current and past audits, we have been able to complete your audit without asking for
such documentation. However, beginning with your calendar year 2007 audit, we will be required
to ask you for complete documentation of your internal control systems, due to the new auditing
standards. Therefore, you should plan now to complete that documentation during 2007, so that
we can evaluate your compliance with the new rules during our audit of your 2007 financial
statements. We will be able to provide you with forms and other resources to assist you with
meeting the new requirements
County’s Response
The County will begin evaluating the staff time and resources necessary to document the
internal controls for each of the major processes identified above. As part of this
evaluation, the County will identify staff best suited to document each process and how to
integrate this additional responsibility into their current workload. As staff time and
resources become available, the County will progress towards completing the
documentation of each major process. The County would appreciate any assistance
Virchow, Krause may be able to provide with recommended forms or formats Virchow,
Krause or its clients have developed to document internal control processes.

COUNTY-WIDE MATTERS
Ethics Policies
(Repeated comment since 2005 report)
We conduct interviews with numerous County employees as part of our audit process. During
these interviews, several employees indicated that they think the County can do a much better
job at reminding employees about the County’s policies concerning ethical behavior. Currently,
employees are required to read over these policies during the hiring process. However, with the
exception of those employees who are required to complete an annual statement of economic
interest, employees are not trained on or reminded of these policies after they have been hired.
To maintain a strong ethical environment, we recommend that the County implement a process
whereby it communicates the importance of ethical behavior to its employees on a regular basis.
County’s Response
Request removal of this comment: As written, it appears as if it is a result of employee complaints
suggesting that some employees are aware of unethical behavior. I am also curious as to how
many other clients VK issues this comment to as I am aware that most governmental agencies
have ethics policies but am not aware of any agencies that provide training or follow-up on the
policies. This point seems to imply that a lack of ethics training is impacting the financial
operations of the County and I do not believe there is a basis to make that statement.

Outstanding Checks (12/31/04)
(Repeated comment since 2004 report)
During our audit of various cash account reconciliations, we noted that many outstanding checks
were several years old. Outstanding checks should be reviewed on a regular basis to determine
which checks are no longer valid. While there may be a variety of reasons why the checks are
not cashed, it is up to the departments within the County to make every attempt to contact the
payee. For those checks that the County is unable to contact the payee, the County should
follow the procedures of regulating unclaimed funds as they are outlined in State statutes.
Formatted

Update (12/31/06)
County’s Response
In 2006, the Department of Administrative Services performed a detail review of all
outstanding accounts payable check. Vendors were contacted to determine if a check
needed to be re-issued in which case the original check was cancelled. As staff time
permits, DAS also plans to perform a review of outstanding payroll checks. DAS will
continue to monitor the age of outstanding checks and assist departments with following
proper procedures regarding unclaimed funds as needed.

Cash Reconciliations (12/31/03)
(Repeated comment since 2003 report)
During our audit of various cash account reconciliations, we noted numerous reconciling items
affecting a number of County departments that were not recorded in a timely manner into the
Advantage System. During its year end closing process, the County has three closing periods
and the Department of Audit completes cash reconciliations at each closing period, if necessary.
The unrecorded reconciling items are given to the various County departments after each
reconciliation is complete. We recommend that the departments throughout the County record
these unrecorded entries in a more timely manner to ensure accurate financial reporting of cash
on hand. We also recommend that a review be made of any material reconciling items during the
year end closing process to confirm the source and accuracy of identify and resolve these
reconciling items.
Update (12/31/06)

County’s Response
Department of Audit Response –

We will communicate this concern to account holders and stress the importance of timely
reconciliations. We will also inform DAS of any material items identified as a result of our
work.
Department of Administrative Services Response –
We will continue to work with the Department of Audit to review any material cash account
reconciling items during the year, on general accounts of Milwaukee County. For 2006,
we performed our review when the reconciliations were available. The Treasurer’s office
took the lead on clearing reconciling items. A coordinated effort was made with the
Department of Audit, Treasurer’s Office and the Department of Administrative Services
to analyze any significant reconciling items. Entries were cleared through the Treasurer’s
office to ensure consistency in coding and clearing of reconciling items.

Revenue Projections (12/31/03)
(Repeated comment since 2003 report)
Adopting an annual budget is often viewed as one of the most important actions of a
governmental entity. Governmental entities make decisions about services and the allocation of
resources through the budget process. The quality of these decisions is dependent upon the
budget process employed. There are four commonly recognized components of effective
budgeting: 1) incorporating long-term planning, 2) developing clear budget guidelines, 3)
establishing a link between the budget process and goals and objectives, and 4) involving and
enhancing communication throughout the budget process.

3

CArcher_Email3014110

COUNTY-WIDE MATTERS

The County decentralizes the responsibility of revenue projections for budget periods.
Historically, it appears that departments throughout the County have budgeted aggressively,
particularly as it relates to revenues. It now appears that the pendulum may have swung the
other way such that the departments are budgeting more conservatively rather then being
aggressive. Although conservative budgeting is generally a preferred scenario, this situation
may still leave County decision makers without the true financial picture of County operations at
any point in time. We recommend that the departments accurately and realistically evaluate their
revenue projections to timely identify shortfalls or surpluses. We also recommend that the
communication between the departments and budgeting administration improve to identify
unexpected shortfalls or surpluses.
County’s Response
Request removal of this comment – I am not sure that I believe conservative revenue
estimates present a serious financial risk to the County. Projections are predictions of
the future – the County will always be either be aggressive or conservative because we
will never be able to predict the myriad of revenues the County receives with precise
accuracy. From another perspective (being a former auditor), I would have hesitated to
comment on financial projections as it appears as if VK is providing some sort of
assurance services regarding the County’s projections. It may be far-fetched but if at
some point in the future VK removed this recommendation, someone could assume that
means VK feels the revenue projections are accurate, If it turns out the revenue
projections are significantly off from actual results, someone could point the finger at VK
and ask why you concluded our projections were accurate. This also seems a bit outside
the scope of the engagement.

Julie, this looks fine. Keep in mind however that the Board gave approval for
advancement of the October 2007 payment to August 2007. Perhaps the language
should read the "no later than the first business day of each calendar quarter"
to recognize that the October payment will be made early and to allow for
possible advancements in the future. [see line 47 and 48].

        I asked A&E to summarize the status of the items Nykelwicz brought to
your attention. As you can see, they are all on target. The one I know he
really had some heartburn over was the doors at Wison Park. Again, this
project was already underway and changing the process to accommodate an earlier
completion date would have posed some legal problems, as well as, added cost to
the project. As the consultants, we provided advice and options, the choice to
stay with the original schedule was the customers call. Here if I can help.

George:
Per your voice mail, here is the project information.
Project Schedules
Wilson Rec Doors - Administrative Contract Award being circulated for
signature - project on schedule per Parks specified schedule
Project Length: 100 calendar days
Estimated Amount of Contract: $100,000
Liquidated Damages Amount: $250.00/day
We anticipate that the door replacement project will be complete by September
15, 2007.
This schedule was developed and approved by the project team made up of Parks
and DTPW staff, taking into account the facility operational constraints and
the construction constraints such as product delivery lead time. We believe
that any condition that has the potential to compromise the health and public
safety of the staff or public citizens using the facility during the
construction period will be addressed by Parks staff and /or the contractor.
We did discuss the potential for expediting the door replacement to achieve an
earlier completion date. We discounted the use of Time and Material contracts
since the cost and effort to prepare public bid documents has already been
expended and the project has been publicly advertised.   Soliciting T&M quotes
at the same time that a project has been advertised publicly is not
appropriate.   We anticipate that performing the work using T&M contractors
would be more costly and the time to completion could not guaranteed to be
changed significantly.

Wilson Rec Ice Refrigeration Equipment - project is on schedule per Parks
specified schedule
Project Length: 120 calendar days

Reminder
Thursday, July 19, 2007 3:50:09 PM

Just a reminder that your dotpoints or highlights of your 2008 budget for use
at the public hearings are due to the CEX Office on Monday.
As we discussed at the cabinet meeting, your highlights should not just focus
on the technical changes or reductions to your budget (e.g., unfunded 3.0 FTE
positions) but should also include programmatic impacts and points explaining
how your budget will impact your programs as seen through the eyes of the
public. The public is concerned about issues impacting quality of life. In
seeing many of your budget requests, I am not seeing major program reductions
that will impact quality of life services provided to the public. All parks
will be open, the streets will get plowed, we will maintain our public safety
and health programs, hours of operations and animal exhibits will be maintained
a the Zoo, etc.   These public hearings offer an opportunity to let the public
know how well we are managing in tight fiscal times. Take advantage of the
opportunity.
Please, again add highlights regarding our ability to continue to meet our
core functions. If reductions had to be proposed, it should be clear they are
being proposed so that other critical functions can continue and highlight
those critical functions that will indeed be possible. Think about how your
department's functions contribute to the quality of life in Milwaukee County
and include highlights accordingly.
Please be sure you send your material to Fran Rudig in the CEX Office with
copies to Ed Eberle, Rob Henken and myself.
Thanks.

Mr. Manske, after further internal discussions please unfreeze the 8500
accounts for the Airport. Expenditures from these accounts will not be
reviewed by DAS. We are still requesting a review of Airport operating
encumbraces that are over a year old per my memo so that we can clean up the
system. The process for filling positions for the Airport will remain the same
as outlined for all departments per my memo.
Thanks.

Capital Bonding Cap Memo.pdf

Per the attached memo, I had requested all departments to prioritize capital
improvement projects so that your priorities can be communicated to the County
Executive during budget briefings. As noted in the attached memo, capital
request exceed our bonding cap by more than $38 million so reductions to
requests will certainly need to be made. I had asked that department
priorities be submitted not later than July 13th to Catherine Koper in my
office. At that time we also provided a form for departments to use in
prioritizing projects. I have yet to receive your priorities and request that
you make every effort to get these in by the close of Monday. If your would
like me to email you the listing of your projects again, I can certainly do so.

FROM:

SUBJECT:

2008 Requested General Obligation Capital Improvement Projects Exceed Bonding Cap
We have completed our initial review of capital budget requests. The request submitted for
general obligation bond financing total approximately $68.5 million. The debt management
policies for Milwaukee County currently place a ceiling of $30 million on the 2008 General
Obligation bond issue. After accounting for estimated issuance costs of $275,000, the 2008
bonding amount available for all general obligation projects totals $29.7 million. Submitted
requests exceed this cap by over $38 million.
In light of the magnitude of the requests, we need to work to bring the sum of the requests more
in line with the 2008 bonding cap. I am seeking your assistance and input in accomplishing
this. With this goal in mind, I am asking each department head to revisit the projects you have
submitted for consideration in 2008 with an eye towards scaling back your requests.
Specifically, I am asking department heads to review the attached listing of projects for your
department and 1) identify those projects that can be delayed for consideration until the 2009
budget process and 2) assign priority rankings to projects that you deem critical for
consideration in 2008. In establishing priorities, please make note of projects that meet one or
more of the below criteria.
To facilitate your review, the attached provides a listing of those projects submitted by your
department. Columns have been included for you to input a numerical priority ranking (with
“1” being the highest priority), justification for the ranking and identification of projects that
can be delayed. Be sure to comment on the below criteria as you establish your priorities.
•
•
•
•
•

Capital improvements that address life safety or liability issues
Capital improvements that address code compliance issues
Capital improvements that are fully or primarily offset with non-County financing
Capital improvements that result in significant cost-avoidance or operational
efficiencies.
Capital improvements that are essential for the continuation of core business functions.

Please email the attached completed document to Catherine Koper no later than July 13th.
In closing, I understand that this will require additional time of you and your staff and that this
may not be an easy exercise. However, we will submit a recommended budget that is within
the established bonding cap and I believe this to be an opportunity for you to have additional
input into the process. Once I have received these documents, I will share them with the
County Executive. Additional meetings with the Executive and DAS staff will occur over the
summer with the attached submittals forming the basis for those discussions.
Please do not hesitate to call me if you would like to further discuss this.

In most cases we used Legislative Fiscal Bureau reports to fill in the

I just want you to know that the quote in todays article about "keeps me awake
sometimes" was taken out of context. The quote was not related to the 2007
budget situation but rather was in response to Rich N. question about the lack
of the fund balance in Milwaukee County. I was discussing the state limitation
on allowing Milw Co to create an undesignated FB due to the requirement that
any surplus drops to the bottom line at the end of each year and must be used
in the following budget. My context of my comment was this is unique only to
Milwaukee County given the statutes and does concern me.
On another note, as I am sure you are aware, Rich will not let of the fact that
the CEX vetoed the entire budget last year. That is the source of all of his
comments regarding who to blame. He is bent on making the point that the Board
budget was fine. I did not challenge him because I get the sense no one is
listening to him anyway.

Tom, I am forwarding this to you but I want you to know I was scolded by Ed for
giving you the document from Department of Public Works on the impacts of their
budget. His position is that nothing should go to you until you begin and if
he (Ed) feels you need something, he (Ed) will give it to you. I am not sure
how much info you want or how much you want to be kept in the loop on key
things over the time period before you officially start. Your guidance or
guidance from the CEX would be helpful. Please, please don't get me in the
doghouse over this. I just don't want you to start "cold". Make sense?
Ideally, I would like to feel free to cc on anything I send to Ed, but I don't
want to create waves. Let me know your thoughts and I will proceeds as you
wish.

        Quote in todays paper





I just want you to know that the quote in todays article about "keeps me awake
sometimes" was taken out of context. The quote was not related to the 2007
budget situation but rather was in response to Rich N. question about the lack
of the fund balance in Milwaukee County. I was discussing the state limitation
on allowing Milw Co to create an undesignated FB due to the requirement that
any surplus drops to the bottom line at the end of each year and must be used
in the following budget. My context of my comment was this is unique only to
Milwaukee County given the statutes and does concern me.
On another note, as I am sure you are aware, Rich will not let of the fact that

CArcher_Email3014140

the CEX vetoed the entire budget last year. That is the source of all of his
comments regarding who to blame. He is bent on making the point that the Board
budget was fine. I did not challenge him because I get the sense no one is
listening to him anyway.

The CEX's Office has notifed you of the budget hearing/workshops that will be
held in early August. Similar to last year, departments should prepare

presentation from last year. Thanks.

This is the meeting to discuss the rerunning of the unfunded accrued actuarial
liability by Buck Consultants for the pension system.   This was the course of
action that was decided at Tuesday's meeting. You had communicated your
agreement with this course of action at the meeting; therefore, I proceeded.
We needed to contact Corporation Counsel in order to schedule a meeting with
Buck Consultants for the rerun. I had contacted Mark Grady from Corporation
Counsel soon after our meeting and was informed that a member of Buck
Consultants would be attending the Personnel Committee and might be able to
meet with us. Mark had not verified the availability of the Buck Consultant so
I contacted him this morning.
He informed me that she would probably be available from 2:30 to 4:30 pm today
so I asked Scott, James, Natalie and PFM if they were available.   We intended
to explain the options to Buck Consultants and have them rerun the numbers. We
would have scheduled a follow up meeting with you once we had the updated
numbers to brief you on the results.

The County's Actuary, Buck Consultants, will be appearing before the Personnel
Committee today so we decided to discuss the pension options with her after the
meeting. As was discussed in our meeting on Tuesday, we have had some
difficulty contacting the actuary so we have to act fast.
It appears that she is available this afternoon from 2:30 to 4:30 pm. There
may be an opportunity to meet with her earlier. I have asked Scott, James and
PFM to reserve time from 2:30 to 4:30 pm. PFM will participate through
conference call. Although, I am technologically challenged, if you are
available, I would like to conference you in as well. Please let me know your
availability. Thanks.

2008 impacts

George, I received you memo outlining what your managers perceive as the
impacts of the 2008 budget on their operations. To be candid, it seemed like a
worse case scenario. I hope this is not what you are submitting for the public
hearings. I think when you prepare your points for public hearings you should
include highlights on what you intend to accomplish in 2008. I have attached
the highlights I just go from the Zoo to better illustrate what is expected.
Call me if we need to discuss. I look forward to receiving you highlights for
the public hearings.

Apparently there are questions about the Circuit support payments. Vanessa is
working with Cady to reach resolution. Otherwise the numbers appear ok. Also,
child support is not on here.   Governor and Joint Finance had additional
funding for child support ($1.5 GPR in 2008 with Federal match of about $3.0
million in 2008 for Milw County)    Assembly left in. Please call Lisa if you
have any questions.

Cady, can you email me the attachments to Anita's MCTS memo?

        Updated State Budget Spreadsheet





Attached is the latest version of the State Budget impact for major revenue
streams. We tried to make it clearer to read and comprehend. There are always
lots of details behind the numbers that may need to be expanded upon verbally.
A recent communication from MCTS, which is attached, explains the impact of the
State Budget on its operations. We think it should also be attached to the
report since it highlights the major difference in transit funding between the

CArcher_Email3014186

Senate and the other versions, and how it could help preserve our transit
services.
Of course, all comments and edits are welcome.

Milwaukee County Transit System
Memorandum
Date: July 19, 2007
To:

Brian Dranzik, Research Analyst

From: Anita Gulotta-Connelly, Director Milwaukee County Transit System
Re:

2007-- 09 State budget

In a memorandum dated 7/10/2007, Milwaukee County Board Chairman Lee Holloway
requested a short, but detailed, synopsis of the different versions of the 2007 – 09 State
Budgets passed by Senate Democrats and Assembly Republicans, and how these
proposed budgets would affect the fiscal condition of Milwaukee County over the term of
the budget.
The attached spreadsheet shows funding for the Milwaukee County Transit System under
the State’s Mass Transit Operating Assistance Program (Section 85.20) and under the
State’s Elderly & Disabled Aids Program (Section 85.21). The Joint Finance Committee
did not amend or modify the Governor’s budget with respect to Section 85.20 and
Section 85.21. In addition, the Assembly version of funding for these programs was the
same as the Governor and Joint Finance Committee’s version; however, the budget
passed by the Senate included additional funding for transit totaling $3.5 Million in 2008
and $3.8 Million in 2009.
The additional funding in the Senate version of the budget would help to diminish the
impact of anticipated service reductions for 2008 and 2009, should the existing cycle of
increased fares and service reductions continue unabated. The $7.3 Million difference
between the Senate version of the budget, and the Assembly’s version of the budget
could mean the preservation of up to 9.5% of existing bus services in 2009 compared to
2007. Preserving this magnitude of service translates into 2.7 million additional
passengers being able to avail themselves of public transit.
Public transit helps to drive the local economy by taking employees to jobs, students to
school, and shoppers to commercial establishments. The additional funding in the Senate
version of the budget would result in well over one million additional passenger trips
each year, meaning that there would be well over one million additional opportunities
annually for members of this community to collect a paycheck, attain higher education,
and spend their hard earned dollars locally. It is critical to transit passengers and local
business that the higher level of funding be adopted by the Conference Committee and
approved by Governor Doyle.

        Circuit Court Support Payments - LFB Budget Paper





Steve,
From my understanding, the recommendations made by the Governor and the Joint
Finance Committee on Circuit Court Support Payments are as follows:

From my estimates, Milwaukee County would receive one payment of $2,632,740 in
CY2007 and two payments totaling $5,351,540 in CY2008 under the Governor's
proposal. Under the Joint Finance Committee recommendation, Milwaukee would
receive one payment of $2,425,291 in CY2007 and two payments totaling
$4,929,806 in CY2008. These numbers are based on the LFB Budget Paper 206 Attachments 1 and 3. A link to that paper follows:
http://www.legis.state.wi.us/lfb/2007-09budget/Budget%20Papers/206.pdf
Please let me know if you have additional information that would alter these
numbers. Thanks.

        Ariport operating capital -- unfreeze 8500 accounts





Mr. Manske, after further internal discussions please unfreeze the 8500
accounts for the Airport. Expenditures from these accounts will not be
reviewed by DAS. We are still requesting a review of Airport operating
encumbraces that are over a year old per my memo so that we can clean up the
system. The process for filling positions for the Airport will remain the same
as outlined for all departments per my memo.

        Budget highlights





Good afternoon,
Attached find ideas/highlights for the budget workshops. Instead of a few
bullet points I included: a) program description - it may be helpful for the
average citizen to recognize what services child support is responsible for
performing and b) two versions of the budget highlights. The second version
provides a more realistic picture but not a strong gloom and doom message.
Please call me with comments or questions.
Thank you,
Lisa

Steve,
Here is an additional item that benefits the County. This would essentially
double the state fines and forfeitures currently received by the County.
Currently, the Sheriff receives $500,000 in state fines and forfeitures. Let
me know if you need additional information.
Collection of Fines and Forfeitures by Counties
Assembly: Modify current law to allow counties to retain: (a) 20% of state
fines and forfeitures; and (b) 30% of state fines and forfeitures collected
within one year of the effective date of the provision that were imposed at
least 180 days before the effective date of the provision. Under current law,
10% of state fines and forfeitures are retained by counties. The remaining
amounts are deposited to the state's common school fund.

We worked out the issue with Vanessa. We all had the right numbers, but there
was a misunderstanding on how we were presenting them. (We're just showing
change from current law.) It highlights that these things can be tricky to
understand as we compare to current law and try to convert fiscal years into a
calendar years.
We added the Child Support numbers. Here is the latest version.

Apparently there are questions about the Circuit support payments. Vanessa is
working with Cady to reach resolution. Otherwise the numbers appear ok. Also,
child support is not on here.   Governor and Joint Finance had additional
funding for child support ($1.5 GPR in 2008 with Federal match of about $3.0
million in 2008 for Milw County)    Assembly left in. Please call Lisa if you
have any questions.

Cady, can you email me the attachments to Anita's MCTS memo?

Attached is the latest version of the State Budget impact for major revenue
streams. We tried to make it clearer to read and comprehend. There are always
lots of details behind the numbers that may need to be expanded upon verbally.
A recent communication from MCTS, which is attached, explains the impact of the
State Budget on its operations. We think it should also be attached to the
report since it highlights the major difference in transit funding between the
Senate and the other versions, and how it could help preserve our transit
services.
Of course, all comments and edits are welcome.

Milwaukee County Transit System
Memorandum
Date: July 19, 2007
To:

Brian Dranzik, Research Analyst

From: Anita Gulotta-Connelly, Director Milwaukee County Transit System
Re:

2007-- 09 State budget

In a memorandum dated 7/10/2007, Milwaukee County Board Chairman Lee Holloway
requested a short, but detailed, synopsis of the different versions of the 2007 – 09 State
Budgets passed by Senate Democrats and Assembly Republicans, and how these
proposed budgets would affect the fiscal condition of Milwaukee County over the term of
the budget.
The attached spreadsheet shows funding for the Milwaukee County Transit System under
the State’s Mass Transit Operating Assistance Program (Section 85.20) and under the
State’s Elderly & Disabled Aids Program (Section 85.21). The Joint Finance Committee
did not amend or modify the Governor’s budget with respect to Section 85.20 and
Section 85.21. In addition, the Assembly version of funding for these programs was the
same as the Governor and Joint Finance Committee’s version; however, the budget
passed by the Senate included additional funding for transit totaling $3.5 Million in 2008
and $3.8 Million in 2009.
The additional funding in the Senate version of the budget would help to diminish the
impact of anticipated service reductions for 2008 and 2009, should the existing cycle of
increased fares and service reductions continue unabated. The $7.3 Million difference
between the Senate version of the budget, and the Assembly’s version of the budget
could mean the preservation of up to 9.5% of existing bus services in 2009 compared to
2007. Preserving this magnitude of service translates into 2.7 million additional
passengers being able to avail themselves of public transit.
Public transit helps to drive the local economy by taking employees to jobs, students to
school, and shoppers to commercial establishments. The additional funding in the Senate
version of the budget would result in well over one million additional passenger trips
each year, meaning that there would be well over one million additional opportunities
annually for members of this community to collect a paycheck, attain higher education,
and spend their hard earned dollars locally. It is critical to transit passengers and local
business that the higher level of funding be adopted by the Conference Committee and
approved by Governor Doyle.

I made one edit.

This seems to be a very complicated process. I just want to be clear that any
old encumbrance that don't have sufficient justification regarless of who
closes them, will be frozen. Scott this is what you and I talked about. You
said you would go in and scoop up the money and then release it at the end of
the year to fall to the bottom line. I just want to be sure that is
happening. It does me no good if we have helped departments find savings and
then they are able to turn around and spend it. I will have faith that
accounting will figure out how to freeze anything we feel (or you feel) is not
justified to remain encumbered.

Open Encumbrance Review for July 2007
You have recently received open encumbrances for your Agency. The four reports were as
follows:
•
•

Encumbrances – July 2006 and Newer – Less than One Year Old
Open Encumbrances July 2006 and Newer (for PC, PD, PG and SC documents)
Open Contract Encumbrances July 2006 and Newer (PO Purchase Orders)

•
•

Encumbrances older than July 2006 – Greater than One Year Old
Open Encumbrances Older than July 2006 (for PC, PD, PG and SC documents)
Open Contract Encumbrances Older than July 2006 (PO Purchase Orders)

The first set of reports contains encumbrances that have been issued in the last year. The
second set of reports contains open encumbrances that have been outstanding for over one
year. You may not receive all four reports since you may not have any encumbrances that fit
the various categories. Remember, PO (Purchase Orders) documents are generally for
written contracts including professional service and public works. The PC, PD, PG and SC
documents are automated documents that are printed by the Advantage Financial system
upon completion.
Open Encumbrances – July 2006 to the present
Please review each report to determine if the open encumbrances appear reasonable. The
review of newer encumbrances is intended to give you a chance to identify any outstanding
encumbrances that should be liquidated. Any newer encumbrances that are liquidated or
modified will increase your available appropriations. This review process is similar to the
activity that we ask departments to perform at year-end for year old encumbrances.
You do not need to report to us on the status of this review. We are simply making these
documents available to you for any review process that you would perform. We have attached
documents on how to liquidate or modify your encumbrances.
Please remember that both open encumbrance reports that are July 2006 and newer are a
snapshot in time. The reports were run on July 11, 2007. Any payments, cancellations or
modifications made between the date of the report and date of review will not be reflected in
report balances. The newer the encumbrance the greater likelihood that a payment,
cancellations or receipt has occurred on the purchase order.
Open Encumbrances – Older than July 2006
Please review each report of encumbrances that are older than July 2006. We are asking
departments to provide justification by August 1, 2007 for leaving these encumbrances open.
The justification can be noted on the report that was provided or a separate report may be
sent to the budget office that identifies the vendor name, vendor number, document number
(ex. PD 100 000001) and line number, (if applicable), plus the reason for leaving the
encumbrance outstanding.
The Budget staff will review the justification provided and obtain the FABA’s approval to allow
the encumbrances to continue where applicable. If we do not receive notice from the
department, we will cancel purchase orders. Cancellation will occur if the purchase orders
have been outstanding for several years, we have no invoices, and/or the department appears
to be keeping the order open only to pay current billings, where a more current encumbrance
exists. Generally, the list of encumbrance documents that are over a year old are associated
with price agreement or decentralized purchase orders.

Cindy,
On this, we agree. I appreciate your wanting me to be in the loop in prep for
my start. There is a lot of material, so having some insight now will be
helpful later. When I'm in next week, I'll let Ed know how much I appreciate
your informing me of issues, so I can hit the ground running. I know the CEX
would probably agree with you and I on this. Maybe Ed just wants to be a
"filter" so I'm not overwhelmed. I like everyone I've met thus far and think
the CEX has a solid team.  I think Ed means well, so I'll take care without
letting on about this conversation.  I'll ask for as much info as the CEX
thinks I might need starting now.
Tom

Tom, I am forwarding this to you but I want you to know I was scolded by Ed for
giving you the document from Department of Public Works on the impacts of their
budget. His position is that nothing should go to you until you begin and if
he (Ed) feels you need something, he (Ed) will give it to you. I am not sure
how much info you want or how much you want to be kept in the loop on key

things over the time period before you officially start. Your guidance or
guidance from the CEX would be helpful. Please, please don't get me in the
doghouse over this. I just don't want you to start "cold". Make sense?
Ideally, I would like to feel free to cc on anything I send to Ed, but I don't
want to create waves. Let me know your thoughts and I will proceeds as you

I just want you to know that the quote in todays article about "keeps me awake
sometimes" was taken out of context. The quote was not related to the 2007
budget situation but rather was in response to Rich N. question about the lack
of the fund balance in Milwaukee County. I was discussing the state limitation
on allowing Milw Co to create an undesignated FB due to the requirement that
any surplus drops to the bottom line at the end of each year and must be used
in the following budget. My context of my comment was this is unique only to
Milwaukee County given the statutes and does concern me.
On another note, as I am sure you are aware, Rich will not let of the fact that
the CEX vetoed the entire budget last year. That is the source of all of his
comments regarding who to blame. He is bent on making the point that the Board
budget was fine. I did not challenge him because I get the sense no one is
listening to him anyway.

Community centers
Saturday, July 21, 2007 8:30:36 AM

From todays paper, it looks like closing the community centers is one of those
things we are going to have to add back. I had no idea we were doing capital
improvements on them at the same time we propose cutting them! Has anyone ever
approached the Y about taking these over or running them or leasing them to the
Y for $1?

We have a big hole to fill ($26 million) and that assumes we approve all the
cuts offered up by the departments. Analysts are working hard to find more
cuts but nickel and dime cuts will not get us where we need to be. We continue
to talk about the things that need to be added so I am getting somewhat
concerned. Even if we save significant amount on pension budget, we are still
significantly short. We may be able to cut $10-$12 million off the $26 million
hole with pension, health care and excess capital $ that Pam is looking into,
but that still leaves a ways to go. We also have added nothing for the CEXs
initiatives (public safety, park rangers, accounting resources, etc). And if
we don't get the increase youth aids $ and the shared revenue gets cut as
proposed by Assembly, we are dead.

Sorry, don't mean to ruin your weekend. Before you leave for vacation we
should sit down and I will tell you where we are at. I was also planning on
meeting with Manske and Budget staff next week to brainstorm about ideas for
larger savings. I can include you in the meeting if you wish. I am also
following up with Scott on OPEB issue for Transit. For right now, we are
aggressively pursuing pension savings, we are re-estimating all of our large
revenue streams, evaluating any excess capital funds that can go into DS
reserve, looking as best case scenario for health care and taking a hold no
prisoners approach to department budgets. We need something bigger. We can
re-estimate juvenile corrections based on average populations, we can budget
unrecognized revenue in DHSS but we will need to do more.
Maybe the CEX should propose downsizing the Board? Not a bad E-year issue.
There is a trend across the state to do so and the public would get it. I know
it would create war, but why not?

Scott, we need to talk about the above issue. It is bankrupting Transit and I

Yes, I would like to discuss with both of you and be a part of the
brainstorming session you mention. In addition to the steps you mention -pension, health care, capital -- I have also been assuming in my head that the
hole would shrink a little further once we get through analyzing the Sheriff,
Courts and DA, as they obviously made little effort to cut to meet our target.
However, as you point out, we are going to need to add a lot of items back to
areas such as Transit before we get through. Also, to add to the list of
potential bad news, if we lose in arbitration on the nurses, deputies and/or
wellness, the problem will grow even further.
I've always been assuming since we got the lower pension number and encouraging
health care trend that in the end, we would be looking at a $12-$15 million
hole. I don't think any of our elected officials grasp how difficult that is
going to be to fill. I think a key will be the assumptions we make on the
State budget and land sales. I have some thoughts I would like to share with
you this week on how we might handle those items.

Brainstorming session -- THIS WEEK
Sunday, July 22, 2007 2:04:43 PM
High

By now you are making substantial progress getting a handle on your 2008
budgets. As an update, if we fund the requested budgets we are looking at an
approximate $26 million hole. Keep in mind this assumes taking all cuts
proposed by the departments -- some of which will not be feasible. We will
likely be able to offset at most half of this hole by re-estimated pension and
health care costs but the pressure is on to find more savings. Other items we
should be considering include:
Budgeting estimated DHSS unrecognized revenues in 2008 (Dan)
Scoop up Capital project surpluses and put in Debt service reserve to offset
cost in 2008 (Pam)
Aggressively re-estimate major revenue streams (Pam/Scott)
Evaluate OPEB options for Transit (Scott)
Re-estimate juvenile corrections (Dan)
Evaluate designations\reserves in General Fund (Scott)
Explore reallocation of CMO surplus to general fund (Dan)
Charge out more DAS capital staffing cost to Bonds (Pam)
This week Kat will be setting up a meeting to brainstorm other ideas. I have
asked Rob and Mankse to attend. We should be taking a "take no prisoners"
approach to departmental budgets. In addition to that, we need to think of our
own initiatives to find savings or additional revenues.   Also, keep in mind,
most departments built into their budget requests and assumption that the
Governor's budget bill will pass. The Assembly stripped out most new $ for
counties and in fact cut our shared revenues. Things could take a turn for the
worse in light of this. Be sure as you go through your budgets, you clearly
identify what department's assumed in terms of the state budget since we will
likely have to adjust this as the conference committee either makes or does not
make progress.
Put your thinkin' caps on. Now is the time to be creative. Thanks!

We have not completed the application process so we will not know the final
details. The sample debt service schedule had the first payment in 2009. This
will probably be the case with the actual schedule, but we will not know for
sure until we receive the final schedule. I will send an email to see if they
can assure us that the first payment occurs in 2009.

Assuming we win in arbitration, we will need to budget an extra cost for the
Wellness program of approx. $1.3 million as I recall, but we should be able to
offset this with an equivalent amount of health care savings (based on reduced
claims) per a memo provided to us by Cambridge and Associates (our
consultant). However, I think that all of us and Scott Manske should sit down
at some point soon to discuss and go over the mechanics. We will likely not
know the result of arbitration until the end of September. If we were to lose,
then there would be a significant additional cost, but I think we are confident
enough that we should be able to budget per our proposal.

Here are my proposed bullet points for the medical examiner's office.:
1. Entered into an agreement with the Medical College of Wisconsin to
supervise pathology training for staff, residents, and fellows for an annual
fee of $95,000.
2. Contracted with Ozaukee county to provide autopsy services for estimated
annual revenue of $45,000.
3. Abolished a forensic investigator-in-charge position for an annual salary
and fringe benefits savings of $90,000.

Re: Fw: State Budget - Milwaukee County Priorities
Tuesday, July 24, 2007 10:00:30 AM

Funding for Transit is still in the Assembly version of the bill as is child
support so there appears to be agreement on these two issues (assuming Walker
does not want to push his Transit funding proposal in addition to what is
already in.) Our problem with Child support is a Federal one.
From my perspective, the Assembly CUT in shared revenues is very problematic -we could live with flat funding (no increase), but a cut of $2.8 million would
kill us. The JCI funding is equally problematic. With the youth aid rate
increase, we must have funding restored to cover the rate increases otherwise
this will fall directly to the property tax payers. While we did not get
additional funding for the Courts, at least the Assembly did not cut base
funding. If we had to, we could live with base funding but the CUTS in shared
revenue and youth aids will kill us.
If we had to give our bottom line answer, I would say restore Assembly cut in
Shared Revenues and provide funding to cover the excessive cost increases
related to the state juvenile corrections facilities (youth aids).

source for three of those four. Let me know when you would like to discuss.

I am writing to inform you that the Wisconsin State Legislature is soon to
negotiate the 2007-09 State Budget bill in a Conference Committee.
As Chairperson of the Milwaukee Delegation, I am requesting a list of Milwaukee
County’s top budget priorities. With three leadership members from each House,
the most controversial spending items will be discussed. Furthermore, it’s
imperative that I receive this list in a timely manner as it’s our goal to

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I look forward to your
returned response.

Consolidating facilites has been extensively explored and discussed in the
past. It won't happen. I think we focus on not having the state pass its
excessive cost increases onto the property tax payers.

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
AND
MILWAUKEE DISTRICT COUNCIL 48,
AFSCME, AFL – CIO AND ITS
APPROPRIATE AFFILIATED LOCALS

COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE FINAL OFFER

Pursuant to the provisions in Section 2.191 EMPLOYEE HEALTH BENEFITS,
paragraph (25) Wellness and Disease Management Program, in the 2007 – 2008 Memorandum
of Agreement between the County of Milwaukee and Milwaukee County District Council 48,
AFSCME, AFL-CIO and its Appropriate Affiliated Locals (hereinafter “Agreement”),
Milwaukee County hereby submits its Wellness and Disease Management Program Final Offer
to Arbitrator Thomas Yaeger.

WELLNESS AND DISEASE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
A.

Effective Dates.

On January 1, 2008, the County shall implement a Wellness and Disease Management
Program (the “Program”). Enrollment in the plan shall occur in conjunction with Open
Enrollment, which is expected to commence in November and/or December 2007, and in
November and/or December each year thereafter.
B.

Objectives. The objectives of the Program are to:
•

Enhance the employees’ health status

•

Empower employees to make healthier, more informed decisions
regarding their overall well being

•

Improve attendance, productivity and quality of work life

•

Establish meaningful incentives to encourage participation

•

Control benefit costs

C.
Program Components. In order to accomplish its objectives, the Program will
focus on understanding the key risk factors in the population and direct resources toward the
most effective and relevant wellness activities. The following shall be the components of the
Program.
•

Health Risk Appraisal (HRA) with biometrics and blood draw

T:\DOCS\17681\83467\06068092.DOC

CArcher_Email3014250

•

Health coaching

•

Health care advocacy including a nurse care manager and twenty-four
hour nurseline

•

Lifestyle management

•

Disease management

D.
Eligible Participants. All participants enrolled in the County’s medical plan
contained in Section 2.191 of the Agreement (active employees, spouses and dependents) shall
be eligible to participate in the Program.
E.
Opt-Out Provision. All eligible employees shall participate in the Program
unless they sign an Opt-Out Election Form. (A copy of the form is attached as Attachment II.)
F.
Appraisal and Incentives. In order to qualify for the incentives provided by this
Program, an eligible employee or spouse must participate in a standard annual Health Risk
Appraisal (HRA) conducted by a company selected pursuant to the provisions in paragraph I,
below. The HRA shall include biometrics and a blood draw. All personal medical information
obtained regarding all participants in the Program shall remain confidential and shall not include
personally identifiable information.
The HRA shall be conducted during the eligible employee’s work day and shall not result
in any loss of pay. The HRA for an eligible employee’s spouse and dependents shall be
conducted during times made available by the company conducting the appraisal.
Eligible employees, and their spouses, who participate in the HRA shall each receive
either: (a) the payment of $100.00 of taxable income or (b) $100.00 allocated to the employee’s
Flexible Spending Account (FSA) on a pre-tax basis. The incentive payments for both the
eligible employee and the spouse shall be made directly to the eligible employee or to the
eligible employee’s FSA within a reasonable time period in the applicable plan year after
notification from the vendor that the participants have completed the required tests.
G.
Program Savings Analysis. The Program will be measured on a per member per
month (PMPM) incurred medical/Rx costs basis for all District Council 48 participants in the
Program. Comparisons will be done for the first twenty-four (24) months of the contract period
(the First Measurement Period), and the next twelve months, twenty-five (25) through thirty-six
(36) of the contract period (the Second Measurement Period). Forecasted medical/Rx trend will
be an amount determined by the County and the Program Manager, based upon the baseline, preprogram trend from medical/Rx claims data for all District Council 48 participants in the
Program. Medical/Rx costs based on the County’s actual experience will be calculated at the end
of the program’s twenty-fourth (24th) and thirty-six (36th) month, and finalized after allowing
three (3) months for the natural completion of claims. All actual program period costs will then
be compared to forecasted costs calculated by using forecasted medical/Rx trend applied to

2
T:\DOCS\17681\83467\06068092.DOC

CArcher_Email3014251

baseline medical costs according to the formulas outlined in the “Savings Calculation
Methodology” section below.
1.
Savings Calculation Methodology. Four (4) primary factors will be considered
as part of the Program savings calculation:
a.

Baseline medical and prescription drug costs;

b.

Measurement Period medical and prescription costs;

c.

Projected trend; and,

d.

Costs, incentives and fees to contracted companies to manage the
Program.

The projected trend will be the estimated cost increase the County would have experienced for
all District Council 48 participants in the Program in the absence of the Program. The trend
factor used in the savings calculation will be derived by using actual County trend from 2005
through 2006 and 2006 through 2007 (the baseline period) for all District Council 48 participants
in the Program.
2.
Covered Population. These financial performance calculations apply to all
District Council 48 participants in the Program. Claims and utilization data appropriate to
calculate the savings are only available for all District Council 48 participants in the Program.
Therefore, the Program Manager and the County will calculate and agree on the difference
between actual and forecasted PMPM incurred medical claims and costs (the savings) for all
District Council 48 participants in the Program.
3.

Measurement Periods. There are two (2) measurement periods for the Program:
a.

First Measurement Period – January 1, 2008 through December 31, 2009
(Months 1 through 24)

b.

Second Measurement Period – Calendar Year 2010 (Months 25 through
36)

A per member per month (PMPM) baseline cost will be established using the County’s actual
claim costs for the 2006 and 2007 plan years, allowing for claims runoff, and assuming that all
required data is available. The data used to calculate the baseline will be adjusted for the
following factors:
a.

Claimants over $150,000 in annual claims

b.

Completion Factor

c.

Fee Schedule Changes
3

T:\DOCS\17681\83467\06068092.DOC

CArcher_Email3014252

d.

Changes in Benefit/Plan Design

e.

Demographics

f.

Transplants

g.

Maternity

The definitions for all adjustment factors are in Attachment I.
The disease management savings methodology excludes specific diagnoses and treatments
because of the terminal nature of the condition. Note, all members excluded within the disease
management savings methodology would not be excluded from disease or case management
participation. Therefore, the Program Manager excludes all identified members who were
residents of a nursing facility, including skilled nursing facility, and/or hospice for establishing
the baseline and intervention period PDMPM costs (per disease member per month).
4.
Establishing Expected Future Costs. Future costs will be established by
calculating a trend line using the County’s actual incurred claims experience between January 1,
2005, and December 31, 2007 for all District Council 48 participants in the Program. The claims
data will be adjusted for the following factors, prior to establishing the trend line:
a.

Claimants over $150,000 in annual claims

b.

Completion Factor

c.

Fee Schedule Changes

d.

Changes in Benefit/Plan Design

e.

Demographics

f.

Transplants

g.

Maternity

The definitions for all adjustment factors are in Attachment I.
The Program Manager and the County will prepare an analysis of the data for the period
incorporating the above adjustments.
5.
Calculation of Actual Costs for 2008 to 2009, and 2010. A per member per
month (PMPM) cost will be established using the County’s actual claim costs for the First
Measurement Period, and then again for the Second Measurement Period. The costs for the
period will be calculated once three (3) months of run-off data is available. The data will be

4
T:\DOCS\17681\83467\06068092.DOC

CArcher_Email3014253

adjusted using the same method shown in the “Establishing Expected Future Costs” section
above.
At the end of each measurement period, including three (3) months of run-off, the
Manager will prepare an analysis of the data for the period incorporating the above adjustments.
The County will review and verify the analysis. A copy of the final analysis will be provided to
the County and District Council 48.
6.
Management Service Fees to be used in the Calculation of Savings. The
number of employee months in each measurement period will be multiplied by the Per Employee
Per Month cost of Wellness and Disease Management and any other managed programs. Any
other Program associated costs will also be included.
7.
Savings Return Calculation. For each measurement period, the calculation of
savings will be as follows:

X
=
–
=
–
=

Expected
PMPM
during
Measurement Period
Number of Members Covered During
Measurement Period
Expected
Total
Cost

Measurement Period
Adjusted Costs During Measurement
Period
Gross Savings During Measurement
Period
Fees and program costs for
Measurement Period
Savings Return

8.
Savings Utilization. Savings generated by this Program shall be utilized to
reduce future increases in the cost of health insurance.
H.
Sunset Provision. The Program shall automatically terminate at the end of the
day on December 31, 2010 unless the County and District Council 48 mutually agree to extend
the Program.
I.
Selection of a Vendor. A Committee consisting of two representatives of the
County and two representatives of District Council 48 shall participate in the finalists’
presentations and recommend a vendor or vendors for the Program. Both the County and
District Council 48 may utilize outside consultants to provide information to the Committee.
The costs of the outside consultants shall be borne by the party hiring the consultant. Vendor(s)
selection shall be made in accordance with the requirements of all applicable County Ordinances.
If the recommended vendor(s) is not ultimately selected by the County, the Committee shall be
requested to recommend a new vendor(s).

CArcher_Email3014254

Attachment I
Definition of Adjustments
Changes in Benefit/Plan Design: Measurement period claim costs will be adjusted to account
for the effect of any benefit/plan design implemented during measurement period. Factors will
initially be developed by actuaries.
Claimants over $150,000: Individuals who have claims in excess of $150,000 in a calendar
year will have their claims capped at $150,000 per individual.
Completion Factor: Incurred but not reported claims will be accounted for in the savings
methodology by a calculated completion factor that will be based upon actual County data, using
generally accepted actuarial practices. The Completion Factor will initially be developed by
actuaries.
Demographics: Measurement period claim costs will be adjusted to account for the effect of
any changes in the County’s demographics, specifically the age/sex mixture. Factors will
initially be developed by actuaries. Illustrative age/sex factors are shown in Attachment III.
Fee Schedule Changes: If significant market or provider network-specific fee schedule changes
occur during the measurement period, measurement period claim costs will be adjusted to
account for increased unit costs outside of the County’s control.
Maternity: A material increase in the incidence of maternity cases in excess of the initially
established threshold will be eliminated from the calculation of measurement period claim cost.
Transplants: A material increase in incidence of transplant cases in excess of the initially
established threshold will be eliminated from calculation of measurement period claim cost.

MILWAUKEE DISTRICT COUNCIL 48,
AFSCME, AFL – CIO AND ITS
APPROPRIATE AFFILIATED LOCALS

MILWAUKEE DISTRICT COUNCIL 48 FINAL OFFER

Pursuant to the provisions in Section 2.191 EMPLOYEE HEALTH BENEFITS,
paragraph (25) Wellness and Disease Management Program, in the 2007 – 2008
Memorandum of Agreement between the County of Milwaukee and Milwaukee County
District Council 48, AFSCME, AFL-CIO and its Appropriate Affiliated Locals
(hereinafter “Agreement”), Milwaukee District Council 48, AFSCME, AFL-CIO,
hereby submits its Wellness and Disease Management Program Final Offer to Arbitrator
Thomas Yaeger.

WELLNESS AND DISEASE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
A.

Effective Dates.

On January 1, 2008, the County shall implement a Wellness and Disease
Management Program (the “Program”). Enrollment in the plan shall occur in conjunction
with Open Enrollment, which is expected to commence in November and/or December
2007, and in November and/or December each year thereafter.
B.

Objectives. The objectives of the Program are to:
•

Enhance the employees’ health status

•

Empower employees to make healthier, more informed decisions
regarding their overall well being

•

Improve attendance, productivity and quality of work life

•

Establish meaningful incentives to encourage participation

•

Control benefit costs

C.
Program Components. In order to accomplish its objectives, the
Program will focus on understanding the key risk factors in the population and direct
resources toward the most effective and relevant wellness activities. The following shall
be the components of the Program.
•

Health Risk Appraisal (HRA) with biometrics and blood draw

CArcher_Email3014260

•

Health coaching

•

Health care advocacy including a nurse care manager and twentyfour hour nurseline

•

Lifestyle management

•

Disease management

D.
Eligible Participants. All participants enrolled in the County’s medical
plan contained in Section 2.191 of the Agreement (active employees, spouses and
dependents) shall be eligible to participate in the Program.
E.
Opt-Out Provision. All eligible employees shall participate in the
Program unless they sign an Opt-Out Election Form. (A copy of the form is attached as
Attachment II.)
F.
Appraisal and Incentives. In order to qualify for the incentives provided
by this Program, an eligible employee or spouse must participate in a standard annual
Health Risk Appraisal (HRA) conducted by a company hired by the County selected
pursuant to the provisions in paragraph I, below. The HRA shall include biometrics and
a blood draw. All personal medical information obtained regarding all participants in the
Program shall remain confidential and shall not include personally identifiable
information.
The HRA shall be conducted during the eligible employee’s work day and shall
not result in any loss of pay. The HRA for an eligible employee’s spouse and dependents
shall be conducted during times made available by the company conducting the appraisal.
Eligible employees, and their spouses, who participate in the HRA shall each
receive either: (a) the payment of $250.00 of taxable income or (b) $250.00 allocated to
the employee’s Flexible Spending Account (FSA) on a pre-tax basis. The incentive
payments for both the eligible employee and the spouse shall be made directly to the
eligible employee or to the eligible employee’s FSA within a reasonable time period in
the applicable plan year after notification from the vendor that the participants have
completed the required tests.
G.
Program Savings Analysis. The Program will be measured on a per
member per month (PMPM) incurred medical/Rx costs basis for all District Council 48
participants in the Program. Comparisons will be done for the first twenty-four (24)
months of the contract period (the First Measurement Period), and the next twelve
months, twenty-five (25) through thirty-six (36) of the contract period (the Second
Measurement Period). Forecasted medical/Rx trend will be an amount determined by the
County, the Union, and the Program Manager, based upon the baseline, pre-program
trend from medical/Rx claims data for all District Council 48 participants in the Program.
Medical/Rx costs based on the County’s actual experience will be calculated at the end of

CArcher_Email3014261

the program’s twenty-fourth (24th) and thirty-six (36th) month, and finalized after
allowing three (3) months for the natural completion of claims. All actual program
period costs will then be compared to forecasted costs calculated by using forecasted
medical/Rx trend applied to baseline medical costs according to the formulas outlined in
the “Savings Calculation Methodology” section below.
1.
Savings Calculation Methodology. Four (4) primary factors will be
considered as part of the Program savings calculation:
a.

Baseline medical and prescription drug costs;

b.

Measurement Period medical and prescription costs;

c.

Projected trend; and,

d.

Costs, incentives and fees to contracted companies to manage the
Program.

The projected trend will be the estimated cost increase the County would have
experienced for all District Council 48 participants in the Program in the absence of the
Program. The trend factor used in the savings calculation will be derived by using actual
County trend from 2005 through 2006 and 2006 through 2007 (the baseline period) for all
District Council 48 participants in the Program.
2.
Covered Population. These financial performance calculations apply to
all District Council 48 participants in the Program. Claims and utilization data
appropriate to calculate the savings are only available for all District Council 48
participants in the Program. Therefore, the Program Manager, the Union and the County
will calculate and agree on the difference between actual and forecasted PMPM incurred
medical claims and costs (the savings) for all District Council 48 participants in the
Program.
3.
Program:

Measurement Periods. There are two (2) measurement periods for the

a.

First Measurement Period – January 1, 2008 through December 31,
2009 (Months 1 through 24)

b.

Second Measurement Period – Calendar Year 2010 (Months 25
through 36)

A per member per month (PMPM) baseline cost will be established using the County’s
actual claim costs for the 2006 and 2007 plan years, allowing for claims runoff, and
assuming that all required data is available. The data used to calculate the baseline will
be adjusted for the following factors:

CArcher_Email3014262

a.

Claimants over $150,000 in annual claims

b.

Completion Factor

c.

Fee Schedule Changes

d.

Changes in Benefit/Plan Design

e.

Demographics

f.

Transplants

g.

Maternity

The definitions for all adjustment factors are in Attachment I.
The disease management savings methodology excludes specific diagnoses and
treatments because of the terminal nature of the condition. Note, all members excluded
within the disease management savings methodology would not be excluded from disease
or case management participation. Therefore, the Program Manager excludes all
identified members who were residents of a nursing facility, including skilled nursing
facility, and/or hospice for establishing the baseline and intervention period PDMPM
costs (per disease member per month).
4.
Establishing Expected Future Costs. Future costs will be established by
calculating a trend line using the County’s actual incurred claims experience between
January 1, 2005, and December 31, 2007 for all District Council 48 participants in the
Program. The claims data will be adjusted for the following factors, prior to establishing
the trend line:
a.

Claimants over $150,000 in annual claims

b.

Completion Factor

c.

Fee Schedule Changes

d.

Changes in Benefit/Plan Design

e.

Demographics

f.

Transplants

g.

Maternity

The definitions for all adjustment factors are in Attachment I.

CArcher_Email3014263

The Program Manager and the County will prepare an analysis of the data for the period
incorporating the above adjustments.
5.
Calculation of Actual Costs for 2008 to 2009, and 2010. A per member
per month (PMPM) cost will be established using the County’s actual claim costs for the
First Measurement Period, and then again for the Second Measurement Period. The costs
for the period will be calculated once three (3) months of run-off data is available. The
data will be adjusted using the same method shown in the “Establishing Expected Future
Costs” section above.
At the end of each measurement period, including three (3) months of run-off, the
Manager will prepare an analysis of the data for the period incorporating the above
adjustments. The County and the Union will review and verify the analysis. A copy of
the final analysis will be provided to the County and District Council 48.
6.
Management Service Fees to be used in the Calculation of Savings.
The number of employee months in each measurement period will be multiplied by the
Per Employee Per Month cost of Wellness and Disease Management and any other
managed programs. Any other Program associated costs will also be included. The
Manager, the Union, and the County will establish, by mutual agreement, the fees and
program costs for the measurement period.
7.
Savings Return Calculation.
calculation of savings will be as follows:

H.
Sunset Provision. The Program shall automatically terminate at the end
of the day on December 31, 2010 unless the County and District Council 48 mutually
agree to extend the Program.

CArcher_Email3014264

I.
Selection of a Vendor. A Committee consisting of two representatives of
the County and two representatives of District Council 48 shall participate in the finalists’
presentations and recommend a vendor or vendors for the Program. Both the County and
District Council 48 may utilize outside consultants to provide information to the
Committee. The costs of the outside consultants shall be borne by the party hiring the
consultant. Vendor(s) selection shall be made in accordance with the requirements of all
applicable County Ordinances.
This Agreement shall be null and void if the recommended vendor(s) is not selected,
and the parties shall enter into immediate negotiations to replace the terms and
conditions of the Agreement.

CArcher_Email3014265

Attachment I
Definition of Adjustments
Changes in Benefit/Plan Design: Measurement period claim costs will be adjusted to
account for the effect of any benefit/plan design implemented during measurement
period. Factors will initially be developed by actuaries.
Claimants over $150,000: Individuals who have claims in excess of $150,000 in a
calendar year will have their claims capped at $150,000 per individual.
Completion Factor: Incurred but not reported claims will be accounted for in the
savings methodology by a calculated completion factor that will be based upon actual
County data, using generally accepted actuarial practices. The Completion Factor will
initially be developed by actuaries.
Demographics: Measurement period claim costs will be adjusted to account for the
effect of any changes in the County’s demographics, specifically the age/sex mixture.
Factors will initially be developed by actuaries. Illustrative age/sex factors are shown in
Attachment III.
Fee Schedule Changes: If significant market or provider network-specific fee schedule
changes occur during the measurement period, measurement period claim costs will be
adjusted to account for increased unit costs outside of the County’s control.
Maternity: A material increase in the incidence of maternity cases in excess of the
initially established threshold will be eliminated from the calculation of measurement
period claim cost.
Transplants: A material increase in incidence of transplant cases in excess of the
initially established threshold will be eliminated from calculation of measurement period
claim cost.

This is in addition to the $3.0 million subsidy. Did we budget for this last
year or is this something new in the contract? I also understand from talking
to Chianelli last night that municipals do not pay the training fees? Is that
correct and is there any way to require them to. Given that it appears
revenues are increasing for municipalities I am looking for ways of recovering
more of our cost from municipals short of touching the subsidy. Are there any
options?
Also it is not clear exactly who we are providing training to and who is
paying the fees, but given our labor costs are increasing I think we need to
look at increasing the fees to reflect our increase cost. I would be
interested in your thoughts on this and options you see with corresponding
revenue impacts.
Thanks.

All paramedic transport units must be documented in the Mutual Aid agreements
Municipality:
Is encouraged, but not required, to execute mutual aid agreements with other
Municipality(ies) adjacent to the political boundaries of the Municipality for
Advanced Life Support Services provided by a Paramedic First Response Unit to
insure the availability of more comprehensive coverage. The available ALS units
in service must be documented in the Mutual Aid agreements similar to a Mutual
Aid Box Alarm System (MABAS). This flexibility shall not significantly
compromise the local 911 ALS responses to the Municipality.
Municipality may execute an ALS response agreement with other Municipalities
adjacent to the political boundaries of the Municipality but outside the political
boundaries of the County of Milwaukee for Advanced Life Support Services and,
during the course of this contract, provides Paramedic or Paramedic First
Response services to citizens or other individuals within that service area. The
municipality providing the service will retain the revenues earned. The flexible
use of ALS units must address ALS response times within established response
zones.
County shall:
Agree to the flexible use of paramedic units for the purpose of providing all levels
of care and transport. The County shall be a party to all discussions regarding the
establishment of mutual aid agreements and prior to the execution of any mutual
aid agreement between the Municipality and a neighboring community outside of
the County of Milwaukee, the County shall be consulted to assure that the service
provision to County residents shall remain a top priority and that the impact of the
mutual aid agreement continues to meet the needs of the County. Mutual Aid
agreements shall include indemnification and insurance language sufficient to
protect the County and its agents from any liability and recognize the rights and
control of the County’s Medical Director. The County reserves the right to deny
the execution of these mutual aid agreements. This flexibility shall not
compromise the County system.

procedures established by the municipality or as provided for under the terms of
this agreement. The municipalities participating in this agreement will establish a
uniform fee structure to provide consistency to the rates charged by each
municipality.
2.6.2 Billing: The Municipality performing paramedic service shall bill users in
accordance with local, state and federal guidelines. The Municipality shall retain
paramedic revenue earned to cover the cost of providing paramedic care. The

County and available by the Municipality to audit and confirm the collection
status of any claim or group of claims.
Municipalities that provide paramedic services may collectively determine a
preferred billing agent to manage individual Municipality contracts.
2.6.3 Payments:
In order to standardize equipment and supplies in the EMS system, and support
the efficiency of inventory management, the County will reimburse Municipalities
for incurred incidental costs at a flat rate of $30 per paramedic unit transport.
Payments will be based on the actual number of paramedic unit transports by the
Municipality during the contract period, on a schedule determined by Milwaukee
County. The maximum reimbursement by County on an annual basis to all
municipalities shall not exceed a cap of $500,000.
Quarterly payments to the municipality for net Tax Refund Intercept Program
(TRIP) revenues collected by the County’s TRIP for dates of service after January
1, 2004 shall be reduced by the County for expense incurred by the County on
behalf of the municipality. Should the municipality not utilize the County TRIP,

In recognition that the Paramedic Program operates to provide health and
safety services to all county residents and that situations may arise which
would prohibit the delivery of these services, thereby jeopardizing the health
and safety of county residents, the County may, at the discretion of the
Medical Director, suspend this contract on twenty-four (24) hours notice
whenever a situation occurs which, in the judgment of the Medical Director,
would prohibit the Municipality from fulfilling its responsibility to provide
services to residents at the level mandated by the EMS program and which
cannot be corrected within a twenty-four (24) hour time span. For the
purposes of this section, situations which might interrupt the delivery of
services to residents include, but are not limited to acts of nature, acts of the
Municipality or its employees or any other action which would reduce the
availability of trained and authorized Paramedics and/or EMTs. In the event
the Medical Director determines a situation exists which jeopardizes the
health and safety of county residents and which warrants execution of the
County's right to suspend the contract under this section, the Medical Director
shall perform the following:
The Medical Director shall inform the Municipality in writing of the situation
jeopardizing the safety and health of county residents and the intention of the
County to suspend the Paramedic contract for services within 24 hours unless
the situation can be addressed and corrected within a time span not to exceed
24 hours from the time of notification. This notification shall include the date
and exact time of suspension and shall be delivered to the Municipality in a
manner that insures receipt of notification.
The Medical Director shall inform the County Executive's Office, the Chair of
the Committee on Health and Human Needs, the Director of Health and
Human Services and the Director of County’s Emergency Medical Services of
the decision to suspend the contract under this section and provide a
justification of the action and the anticipated actions required to insure
continuous delivery of services to county residents. A full report of the
situation shall be provided to the Municipality and made available for the
County Board of Supervisors and the County Executive within a ten (10) day
period following the execution of the County's right to suspend the contract
under this section. This report shall include, but not be limited to, the
situation which warranted the suspension of the contract, the actions of the
Medical Director to insure delivery of services to residents once the contract
for services was suspended, the plans of the Medical Director to insure
continued delivery of services to residents in the immediate future, and what,
if any future contract changes would be required with the Municipality or any
other Municipality with which the County contracts for paramedic services to
insure the delivery of services.
Upon notification of the County's intent to suspend the contract under these
provisions, the Municipality shall address the concerns of the Medical

to suspend the contract under this section with a plan to correct the situation in
a time frame not to exceed the twenty-four (24) hour time frame, if the
Municipality desires to maintain the operation of the Program(s).
The Medical Director has the right to reject any and all corrective action plans
if those plans do not, in the opinion of the Medical Director, insure the safety
and health of county residents. The contract shall be considered void twentyfour (24) hours from the original date and time of notification and any
obligations on behalf of the Municipality and/or the County suspended.

Excellent. Keep on top of them. For now, is it still save to assume that we
can put the $900,000 from the annex in debt service reserve and reduce our levy
by the same amount?

You also need to know that when we brief on the operating budgets for Zoo,
Parks, A/E, Facilites and Higway, the CEX would like to go over the capital
projects at the same time. Briefings start week after next. See Molly for
schedule. The two of you need to coordinate.

Hi:
I just want to drop you an email so that I don't forget to talk to you about
the capital meeting with you on August 3. I want to get some sense of what you
are expecting from us. We will finish the site visits on July 31 and will be
in the process of drafting the recommendations in the format that you
approved. Obviously, they will not be completed by the August 3 meeting, but I
thought we could prepare a summary document to brief you on where we are with
the recommendations and some of the questions and issues that surfaced during
our visits. Please let me know if you would like us to pursue a different
approach. Thanks.

HIGHLIGHTS OF HOC 2008 BUDGET REQUEST

HOC 2008 budget provides staffing and funding to house an average of 1,910 inmates
per day in Franklin.
The budget request proposes to expand the electronic surveillance monitoring program
from 350 inmates to 710 inmates by adding an enhanced GPS monitoring option of
electronic surveillance in addition to the current voice print monitoring system. The use
of the GPS system will permit the HOC to discontinue housing inmates at the
Community Correctional Center at 10th and State.
Funding for the Community Justice Resource Center continues in 2008 with tax levy of
$852,091. The CJRC serves as an alternative to incarceration by providing programming
services to inmates placed in the program by judges and court commissioners.
The inmate industries division of the HOC will employ approximately 200 inmates per
day working in maintenance, laundry and food service areas of the HOC. In addition, the
HOC provides vocational training in a graphics print shop, a welding program and a
recycling center.
Funding for the Adult Education and Family Literacy program and the inmate library are
continued but funding for AODA treatment and job development/assessment programs
are discontinued due to placing all community accesss inmates on electronic surveillance
resulting in a tax levy savings of $342,618.
Tax levy support for the Farm and Fish Hatchery are discontinued resulting in a savings
of $256,384.
The 2008 budget request includes revenue of $3,240,000 and expenses of $1,080,000
from housing 180 State inmates in the County Jail resulting in additional pretrial inmates
being transferred to the House of Correction.. The revenue is split between the Sheriff’s
Office and the House of Correction.

That would work for me, though I might recommend adding Shared Revenue to make
it a top four, as we could certainly use the extra $1 million and this is the
key State funding stream that is ostensibly designed to help us with our
unfunded and under-funded State mandates.

From a budgetary perspective, JCI, Transit, Courts and Shared Revenue would top
the list. However, there are obviously some complications due to the funding
source for three of those four. Let me know when you would like to discuss.

Dear County Executive Walker:
I am writing to inform you that the Wisconsin State Legislature is soon to
negotiate the 2007-09 State Budget bill in a Conference Committee.
As Chairperson of the Milwaukee Delegation, I am requesting a list of Milwaukee
County’s top budget priorities. With three leadership members from each House,
the most controversial spending items will be discussed. Furthermore, it’s
imperative that I receive this list in a timely manner as it’s our goal to
secure the items that Milwaukee County needs to prosper.
Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I look forward to your
returned response.
Sincerely,

Cindy/Molly:
It would probably be a good idea for the three of us and Manske to sit down
with Dave Arena and his new fiscal guy sometime soon after I return not only to
discuss Wellness, but also some other factors that we will want to think about
as we put together the Employee Health/Benefits budget. Scott should proceed
with his estimate, which as I understand it will essentially be based on
assuming some type of percentage increase to his latest projection on year-end
2007. In my mind, that could serve as our baseline, but there are some other
things going on that he is likely not aware of that we may need or wish to
factor into the equation, such as:
1. WPS and Aurora have parted ways, which will complicate things for us. In
all likelihood, we will need to find an alternative way to keep Aurora as part
of our PPO network, and the outcome of this may have a fiscal impact. It's too
early to tell whether this will be positive or negative, but we need to discuss
and probably come up with some type of a logical assumption to use in the
Budget, as this may not be resolved before mid September.

CArcher_Email3014307

2. There is serious potential to tweak our mail order pharmacy policies, which
could allow us to budget a significant savings (perhaps in the range of
$500,000).
3. Dave is working on some changes to our life insurance contract that also
could produce significant budgetary savings.
Also, Dave has been digging into this stuff for a couple of months now, and he
may have some other thoughts on how to budget in this area. If you would like
to get this meeting set up for the week of the 6th, that would be great.

Re: Employee Benefits

We don't have to debate this. But I know that the health care estimate makes
assumptions about plan changes, estimated copays and deductibles, claims
experience (now that we are self insured), enrollment for active and retirees
and a host of other factors. I have sat with Scott for hours going through
these assumptions and to imply it is as simple as applying a percentage is not
correct and frankly somewhat insulting.

I agree with the rest of the below. My first priority is to get a reestimate
from Scott and then we can begin adjusting for factors you and others think
should be factored in. I am also supportive of turning this over the the
fiscal person in Employee Benefits if we can indeed get Scott to back out of
it. That will not be easy if he does not then we have just devoted another set
of resources to this task with another set of assumptions -- Scott, Audit and
Employee Benefits. I guess I would like to know your vision on who will take
the lead on this in future so Scott and I are clear. I know for now Scott has
to be the main person, but ultimately how do you see it?

Actually, I don't think it is. The HMO increase is set by contract, and Scott
develops an assumed percentage increase for the self-insured component based on
experience and industry forecasts. I believe he then applies the two
percentage increases to either previous year actual or current year projected
for the two categories.. The only other variable is participation - he
sometimes adjusts those numbers to account for real or projected steerage or
experience.
Regardless, my point here is that there are strategies being pursued by Arena
that may impact Scott's projections in a material way. I wanted you, he and
Molly to be aware of those, and I also think we should begin to shift this
responsibility to the Benefits fiscal person to reduce Scott's workload.

We have to know what the contract says before we can conclude it makes no
difference.  In any event, it seems like a waste of time at this point now that
we know there is no significant surplus available. In addtion, I learned
yesterday the CMO built in no provider increases. Tell me what you want, and I
will do it.

question
Thursday, July 26, 2007 7:15:21 AM

Pam, when we talk about the $9 million in pension savings under the 30year POB
option, does that mean we have put nothing in a stabilization fund? I assume
it does.

Setting POBs aside, what was the pension estimate w/o POBs when we did our
projections vs what is the pension estimate without POBs (from the actuary
report) now? I am curious to know the savings prior to inserting the POB issue.

I don't think we can make a case for not having a stabilization fund at all
since it will look like we raided the whole idea just to balance the budget.
So I am trying to figure out a rationale for how much we put in a stabilization
fund vs how much we can reasonably use to balance the budget. If I am
understanding what the $9 million represents (and maybe I am not), it seems we
need an option or rationale for how much of the $9 million we should set
aside. Make sense? What are your thoughts?

I would like to discuss prior to the brainstorming session.

You are funding the stabilization fund with this option (Option 3). Option 3
allocates $23.3 of the $27,775,930 unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL)
for 2008 to the stabilization fund and results in a $4.5 million levy savings
in 2008. Future deposits to the stabilization fund are approximately $2.2
million annually. You may need to refer to PFM's document to understand my
explanation.
Setting POBs aside, what was the pension estimate w/o POBs when we did our
projections vs what is the pension estimate without POBs (from the actuary
report) now? I am curious to know the savings prior to inserting the POB issue.
I am not sure what you are referring to with this question. Maybe we can
discuss it when you come in. The 2008 requested fringe budget included an
estimated $54.4 million, with a levy savings of $6,250,000. Please keep in
mind that the amount does not relate to the updated unfunded actuarial accrued
liability of $329 million.
I don't think we can make a case for not having a stabilization fund at all

It may be a good idea to stick to a structure that is similar to the 2007

CArcher_Email3014320

budget since policymakers are familiar with that structure. I also think that
we need to see the data from Buck before we can nail down a number and final
structure for the 2008 budget. We will probably go through several iterations
before we nail down a final number. I think for starters we have to look at a
structure that is based on the current State Statutes as well as a structure
that includes the statute changes proposed in 2007 and reflected in the 2008
request. For the most part this is the course that we are pursuing.
I do think that since we would not really be saving $27 million overall as was
initially thought, I think we should probably move away from Option 1 as it was
initially proposed. This option results in a higher bond issue in order to
achieve savings in 2008. I don't think this option is a fiscally responsible
option if we are bonding in 2008 to achieve savings in 2007.
FYI. The $9 million represents the change in the UAAL, from the requested
budget amount of $54,492,722 to the Option 3 amount of $45,207,000. The change
is $9,2855,722. The levy savings in Option 3 is less than the $6,250,000 that
was included in the 2008 requested budget and 2007 adopted budget. If the
decision is to put all of the $27,775,930 in the stabilization fund, the budget
savings from the UAAL changing from $455 million to $329 million is $4,785,722
(54,492,722 - $49,707,000=$4,785,722).
I hope this helps. I am available to meet with you when you arrive.

Department of Transportation & Public Works

Milwaukee County
George A. Torres
Director / Highway Commissioner

The Department of Transportation and Public Works is comprised of eight division:

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.

Divisons
Directors office
Airports
Transportation Services
Architectural, Engineering, & Env. Services
Highway Maintenance
Fleet Management
Facilities Management
Transit/Para-transit

Expenditures
$ 222,000
$71 million
$2.4 million
$6.1 million
$17.3 million
$10.6 million
$17.4
$155.3 million

$

Total Employees 1,711 (an increase of 12 for 2008) Includes 1,100 Transit employees
Expenditures of $280.3 million
Total tax levy of $40 million

The department continues to review its processes and how we do business and have been successful
in streamlining services and creating efficiencies:
•
•
•

•

•

•

Highway workers are being trained to do field work previously performed by higher paid
employees, this has resulted in lower cost labor charges to projects allowing for more money
to be available for brick and mortar.
Fleet Management will again in 2008, repair leased vehicles that in the past were repaired as
part of lease agreements with the private sector. Doing these repairs in house now will
provide a substantial savings the using department.
Facilities Management has also reorganized staff in order to streamline the maintenance and
housekeeping section allowing for better coverage with existing staff. Facilities Management
division will continue to reassess how work is performed in 2007 and have made adjustments
to staffing schedules to help reduce cost. While the frequency of services will be reduced,
housekeeping and security will continue to be a priority for the division.
Energy conservation measures will continue in 2008 with items such as new lighting and
energy efficient systems controls; we will also begin working on Performance Contracting,
which is projected to save the County considerable money in both energy and capital
expenses.
In our Fleet Management division, the purchase of multi-use equipment also continues to
expand in 2008, eliminating low use equipment. Fleet Management now requires using
departments to share expensive units, rather than buy multiple, low use pieces. We are also
pursuing similar sharing agreements with other public agencies.

While there are proposed reductions in service in the Milwaukee County Transit division’s
budget, the routes proposed for reduction or elimination have been carefully scrutinized to
ensure there are routes within reasonable distance that can still provide service to the riding
public.
• Transit fares increases are requested as follows:
• Adult cash fares + .25
• Half fare cash rides + .15
• Half fare ticket book + $1.50
• Premium cash fares + .75
Transit revenues are projected to be $2.7 less than 2007 due to a loss in rider-ship associated with an
MPS policy change, as well as, other factors.
• GMIA will continues to expand and grow, adding new gates and food service throughout the
airport. Additional staff will be added in 2008 to meet the needs of our world-class airport. In
2007, GMIA moved up into the #48 spot on the busiest airports in the country and was
recognized as one of the best in the country in 2007.
• In 2008, Facilities Management will continue improving the water distribution system on the
County grounds with replacements of approximately 200 valves throughout the system.
In 2008, the department will continue to strive to provide all of the services residents have come
to expect from Milwaukee County including snow plowing, road maintenance and repairs, repaving,
and providing a safe and clean transportation system for the traveling public. We will also continue
to improve on efficiencies and work smarter.

Fw: BHD 2nd quarter projection -- QUESTION
Tuesday, July 31, 2007 8:12:31 AM

Please see below. Was our contigency fund number on your sheets net of the
$800,000 that BHD has already transferred from the contigency fund? If not,
looks like we just lost another $800K.

Subject: Fw: BHD 2nd quarter projection
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it appears to me that BHD's projected
deficit of $3.4 million includes the transfer from the Contingency Fund.
Scott's spreadsheet still lists the Contingency Fund offset, I believe, as
$3.1 million, which means that either that should be reduced by approx.
$800,000, or BHD's deficit should grow by $800,000. Not good...

Rob
simple answer, yes, yes & yes.
Yes, the payroll projection includes the fund transfers for DC 48 and the
contingency fund transfer and it is still deficiting by $1.2 million, almost
exclusively in overtime.
Drugs, early in the year we were benefiting from some large credits due to back
billing to insurance companies by Roeschen. It has grown from Feb total of
$293,000 to June $375,710. Hard to say exactly what the change is, (client
census is stable) other than changes in price and/or use of drugs not covered
by other insurance (insurance companies who have a formulary) for clients who
have insurance coverage. I have asked Dave Moehrle with Roeschen to take a
look at that. We will attempt to quantify.
If this trend continues, we could continue to have problems this year as well
as next year. The 2008 requested drug budget is $4,120,000 I am currently
projecting spending for 2007 to be $4,661,198 (this is based upon the average
of Feb - June annualized January reflected all the credits) If July - Dec all
come in at the high side of $375,000 we will really have trouble. I'll keep
you posted as bills come in if you would like. I have a trend spreadsheet
since we began with Roeschen in 2004 if you would like to take a look at it.
Besides drugs, other areas of concern with the 08 budget. Security we added
$200,000 to bring the 08 budget to 774,230. The last couple of months the
average monthly billing was just over $100,000. Lynn Gram is looking at how to
staff the security more appropriately to bring these costs more in line with
the budget. As payroll is a perpetual problem, I am not sure the $800,000
lump sum V&T we put in at the last minute to bring us in alignment with the
overall department target is attainable.
I feel like I am just doom & gloom lately. Hope you are enjoying a day off.

        Re: BHD 2nd quarter projection





Thanks, Pat. Two questions:
1. This new deficit of $3.4 million doesn't include the fund transfer from the
Contingency Fund approved in April or May (of about $800,000 as I recall), does
it? Did that fund transfer ever occur?
2. What's going on with pharmacy? Last I heard, I thought you guys were
projecting a defict in the $400,000 - $500,000 range. Any idea what's causing
the spike, and does this mean we're short in your 2008 projection?

Thanks, Pat. I've already talked to Rob about these numbers and how the
overall Department numbers look. Factoring in BHD's extra $400k in deficit,
and DHHS' and CHP's additional $750k in surplus, we'll be able to offer DAS a
net of about $350k.

Hi Cindy. David Eisner from AFSCME is looking for a set of all of the
requested budgets. He contacted Steve Cady and got most of them from him.
However, Cady was apparently unable to give him several that he said he did
not have (mostly non-departmentals). Eisner would like to get those from us.
Could you please have Kat or whomever contact him at 344-6868 and determine
what he's missing and get them for him? Obviously she doesn't have to drop
everything to do this. Thanks.

On second thought. I think we just include one dot point under DAS that
indicates the 2008 budget request assumes or projects $7 million in land sale
revenue. You would cover this under DAS and you could say whatever you want.

Kat, attached is the revised power point. I edited it this AM so work off of
this one. The main thing right now is to get the format and font consistent.
I deleted many of the things analysts needed to fill out so leave them out of
it for now and focus on the the font issue. Once we get format done, we can
send out to departments for final edits. I want to get this out by noon.

powerpoint for workshops
Wednesday, August 01, 2007 7:47:32 AM
High

I have completed the power point for the public workshops. Kat is working on
format and should have it done later this morning. I would like to circulate
it to the affected departments (hopefully by noon today) since it needs to be
proofed. They will have a short turnaround time. I will cc all of you when I
send out to departments so you can begin your review.

Once I send it out, I am requesting that the CEX office take over making any
edits that are required by CEX or departments. I really have no more time to
devote to this since I am working with staff to get ready for budget briefings
that start with the CEX on Monday.

Let me know if the above is an acceptable approach.

Thanks.

Please look into the below and assist with getting this done. I do not believe
we are canceling Purchase orders but rather freezing encumbrances that are
older than a year and freezing purchases in capital accounts. If this is not
true, you need to let me know ASAP. As such, the below purchase should be
"unfrozen".

Please advise.

Dawn Gurda informed me that she was instructed to cancel PC 400 63672 in
conjunction with the purchasing freeze. We have a little problem with that,
since the document was created on 7/10/07 and faxed over on 7/11/07, we already
have the server, it's installed and in operation. So at this point I feel the
only logical solution would be if you would authorize the creation of a new
P.O. to replace the one which was recently canceled.
Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

2007 freeze meeting
Wednesday, August 01, 2007 8:15:25 AM

I would like all of us to sit down early next week (Monday/Tuesday) to see
where we are at with revised departmental 2007 projections and to review all
requests for exemptions from the capital purchasing freeze and request to
maintain encumbrances that are over a year old. I sense the requests for
exemptions are coming in piecemeal and we need to resolve all that have been
submitted. I recall we gave a deadline on the old encumbrances and that
without requests to keep them on the books, they would be eliminated. We need
to bring this issue to closure.

I know that we have all been incredibly busy with the budget and CAFR and other
things, but we really need to set aside a little time to make sure we are all
on the same page with implementation and decision making.

Molly, please let the analysts know that we will be reviewing all exemption
requests at this meeting. They can come in one by one.

Thanks.

Is there anything I need to do to bust this loose? I am very concerned that
we leave the County open to big liability problems and jeopardize receiving the
DATCP grant monies. I surely do not want this to end up like the 2 1/2 year
vacancy we had with the Airport Engineer. Because this is an exempt position,
I can begin the process to fill the position as soon as I get the go ahead from
DAS.
Please advise,

We discovered yesterday that approximately $1.1 million worth of equipment was
not included in the Parks budget as intended in the budget narrative for
Parks. As communicated yesterday, if the Parks department intends to request
this equipment, I will need a letter requesting an amendment/addition to the
Parks department budget indicating what should be added to the request. The
letter should should be from the Parks Department Director addressed to me and
cc Scott Walker and Rob Henken. Copies of the letter will be provided to the
Board and to those individuals (MJS) that have requested copies of the 2008
departmental budget request.

This will not be added at the CEX level without a formal communication
requesting the addition. I need this by 3:00 today. If you do not intend to
add this to the budget request please advise so also by 3:00 today. Your
decision impacts the presentation we are finalizing for the public workshops so
timely response would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

2008 REQUESTED CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS
MILWAUKEE COUNTY
WP Equipment
An appropriation of $1,143,000 is requested to make improvements to purchase and replace Park owned
equipment that it uses in the day-to-day operations of the Parks Department. The details of this request
are as follows:

•

4 – 16 foot Mowing Units - Total Costs $240,000

These unit cuts on average 8 acres per hour. With decreased numbers of full time and
seasonal staff a machine of this size can cut up to 64 acres of turf in eight hour day. The
last machines were purchased in 2001-2002. These machines cut the large open spaces in
the system as well as the golf courses.
•

10 – 11 foot Mowing Units – Total Costs $400,000

The HR 51-11 series of rough mowers were purchased in the mid to late 90’s. These
machines all have over 3000 hours and in some cases 4 to 5 thousand hours. The
machines from the repair orders are getting very expensive. The 11-foot mowers can cut
up to 40 acres in an eight-hour day. They have more maneuverability and are used in
more confined space.
•

10 - 72 inch Turfcat Mowers – Total Costs $150,000

The 72-inch turfcats are the primary trim mowers. These mowers maintain the areas
under trees, within picnic areas, and places the larger out front mower can’t fit into.
•

12 - Greens Mowers – Total Costs $168,000

The greens mower is the most important piece of equipment on a golf course. We are
seeing an increase in hydraulic leaks, motor problems and cutting units wearing out. The
last machines were purchased in 2004 for Brown Deer. The Brown Deer movers were
moved down the next level course and so on. The current fleet of mowers is getting
expensive to maintain based on the age of the machine.
•

3 – Equipment Trailers – Total Costs $45,000

When working at satellite locations, on highway medians or transporting machines to
fleet maintenance trailers are being used. With today’s trailer safety standard it important
to purchase a few each year and surplus the oldest and most expensive to maintain.
•

10 Ball Diamond and Trap Rakes – Total Costs $120,000
With over 100 ball diamonds in the system and no dedicated / specialty machines to
maintain them it is important to have the right tools for the job. Currently, lawn tractors
and roto-tillers are used to level and drag the fields.

•

1 Tractor – Total Costs $20,000
Currently the golf division has one tractor. We have 5 tractor attachments that require the
use of a tractor.

MJS request for overtime payments--HEADS UP
Wednesday, August 01, 2007 10:00:34 AM
OT payments 2006 year-end.xls
OT payments YTD 2007.xls
High

Today we fulfilled an open records request for MJS regarding total overtime
payments by employee for 2006 and year to date OT payments by employee for
2007. Some of the statistics are alarming in terms of amounts. I have created
two spreadsheets that show the top OT earners for each year. I cut off the
2006 sheet to include only those that earned more than $20K in 2006 and more
than $10K in 2007 (reflecting half year has passed). The sheets are sorted by
amount. Pay particular attention to the columns highlighted at the top.
Please note, the OT pay is in addition to the base pay. This may be a news
story in the next day or so.

        MJS request for overtime payments--HEADS UP





Today we fulfilled an open records request for MJS regarding total overtime
payments by employee for 2006 and year to date OT payments by employee for
2007. Some of the statistics are alarming in terms of amounts. I have created
two spreadsheets that show the top OT earners for each year. I cut off the
2006 sheet to include only those that earned more than $20K in 2006 and more
than $10K in 2007 (reflecting half year has passed). The sheets are sorted by
amount. Pay particular attention to the columns highlighted at the top.
Please note, the OT pay is in addition to the base pay. This may be a news
story in the next day or so.

        Re: MJS request for overtime payments--HEADS UP





Please see the below.
Since vacancy figures change everyday, I am asking that Ron provide the CEX
with the number of vacant CO positions since these are the primary overtime
generators. Corey and Jim, please provide the CEX the number of vacant health
care positions by title for BHD. We all need to be able to respond to this.
It is important to note that these are 24X7 operations and that I assume you
have made heroic efforts to recruit to fill vacancies. Please give your input
to the CEX on our response.

I request that you copy me on your responses.
Thanks!

Of the areas where the most OT is taking place, how many positions do we have

        MJS request for overtime payments--HEADS UP



CArcher_Email3014608



Today we fulfilled an open records request for MJS regarding total overtime
payments by employee for 2006 and year to date OT payments by employee for
2007. Some of the statistics are alarming in terms of amounts. I have created
two spreadsheets that show the top OT earners for each year. I cut off the
2006 sheet to include only those that earned more than $20K in 2006 and more
than $10K in 2007 (reflecting half year has passed). The sheets are sorted by
amount. Pay particular attention to the columns highlighted at the top.
Please note, the OT pay is in addition to the base pay. This may be a news
story in the next day or so.

REVIEW OF PUBLIC WORKSHOP PRESENTATION
Wednesday, August 01, 2007 1:42:33 PM
CEX Public Workshop August 2008.ppt
High

Attached is the draft of the public workshop presentation. Each of you needs
to review this very carefully for factual accuracy. Pay close attention to the
ordering of dot points on your slides. Since you will be going over these,
make sure they are ordered in a fashion that makes sense in terms of how you
will talk about them.
This document is somewhat longer than in the past for two reasons: 1) we need
to highlight the things that we will continue to do in 2008 since one of the
CEX goals is to maintain core services. 2) This presentation serves to meet
our requirements per County Board resolution that each department head report
programmatic impacts of the requested budget to the Board.
It is my understanding that each department will have on average 2-3 minutes to
cover their slides. Obviously, some of the larger items may take a few minutes
longer.
Please return any edits to Fran Rudig in CEX Office by noon tomorrow. The CEX
Office will finalize the presentation and send out more instructions if
necessary.
Fran, the document needs a little work in terms of font size and type
consistency. If you could fix that would be great.
Thanks.

        REVIEW OF PUBLIC WORKSHOP PRESENTATION





Attached is the draft of the public workshop presentation. Each of you needs
to review this very carefully for factual accuracy. Pay close attention to the
ordering of dot points on your slides. Since you will be going over these,
make sure they are ordered in a fashion that makes sense in terms of how you
will talk about them.
This document is somewhat longer than in the past for two reasons: 1) we need
to highlight the things that we will continue to do in 2008 since one of the
CEX goals is to maintain core services. 2) This presentation serves to meet
our requirements per County Board resolution that each department head report
programmatic impacts of the requested budget to the Board.

CArcher_Email3014661

It is my understanding that each department will have on average 2-3 minutes to
cover their slides. Obviously, some of the larger items may take a few minutes
longer.
Please return any edits to Fran Rudig in CEX Office by noon tomorrow. The CEX
Office will finalize the presentation and send out more instructions if
necessary.
Fran, the document needs a little work in terms of font size and type
consistency. If you could fix that would be great.
Thanks.

Re: MJS request for overtime payments--HEADS UP
Wednesday, August 01, 2007 8:23:09 PM

I know that BHD has vacancies in the health care area and corrections has
vacant officer positions. The departments usually indicate that the vacancies
are driving overtime and that they have a hard time recruiting to fill
vacancies. I agree however that the OT seems to be excessive for certain
individuals. I have asked the department heads to assist the CEX office in
preparing response in the event this hits the paper.

Re-estimate unrecognized prior year revenues upwards

Re-estimate juvenile populations (hopefully slightly downward) by using longer
trend line.

We should be "realistically aggressive" on these because if we don't the Board
will.

Kat, I will need 15 copies of the presentation printed like we sent to Rob (4

all the dates for meetings and briefings with the CEX noted. Finally, I need
directions.

Molly, we are woefully behind on our briefings due to time I have had to devote
to CEX office. Can you see if we have any volunteers for Saturday or Sunday???

FW: Advanced public management - shadowing

pa 885 Advanced Public Management fall 07.doc

You are all enrolled in my class, PA 885 Advanced Public Management, this
fall. There is one aspect of the class that it would be helpful for me to get
feedback from you at this point. Two papers, making up 35% of your grade, are
tied to shadowing an actual public/nonprofit manager for about 15 hours over
the course of the semester.
I can find you a manager, mostly likely working in state government, and match
you to him/her. But if there is someone specific you want to be assigned e.g.
someone you have previously worked with, or works in an area you are interested
in, please let me know by Tues, Aug 7. Please confirm with this person they
will be willing to do this (I am happy to explain what is involved ffor them),
or provide me with their information and I will contact them. This will give me
a sense of how many managers I need to recruit for the fall.
Thanks

About This Course
The main goals of this course are (1) to enhance your ability to think analytically about
problems of public management; (2) to enhance your ability to make good arguments
concerning how public management issues might be addressed and (3) to learn about the
craft of management by working with practitioners.
The central of this class it is the issue of how to manage change. Most of you will soon
be in an organization where you face the issue of trying to foster a change in how the
organization does something, e.g. how a program delivers its services, how personnel are
managed. Your organization will also face pressures for external change, from
stakeholders, elected officials or funders. The ability to lead and manage change, to get
things done, is therefore a fundamental skill for someone who expects to prosper an
organizational environment. This course examines a number of concepts that affect the
manager’s ability to shape change, including managerial craft, constraints, organizational
culture, the ability to learn, using third-party actors, autonomy, ethics and leadership.
The course materials include conceptual and analytic literature as well as case materials
and examples drawn from a variety of sources. The idea is that you should use the
conceptual materials to analyze issues raised by the cases and examples.
The cases include studies of schools, examining the role of senior managers such as the
heads of the World Bank, the Department of Defense and NASA, the challenges NGOs
face in a developing context, learning to better wage the war in Iraq, contracting
negotiations between a non-profit and a local government, and seeking solutions to
homelessness. Each case develops major themes relevant to anyone providing public
services in either a domestic or international context.
Required Readings
All assigned readings are either available on electronic reserve or will be distributed to
you prior to class. If there is adequate interest I can also organize to have a reader made
available for purchase from Pickwick Papers (formerly Bob’s Copy Shop) at 1401
University Ave. You need not buy any books.

Course grades will be based on a modified curve. In general, one standard deviation
above the class mean will earn an A, one standard deviation below the class mean will
earn a C, unless the class mean is sufficiently high to warrant more A’s and fewer C’s.
Any student scoring above a 90 automatically receives an A.

Case Discussions
For most classes, we will discuss and analyze teaching cases. A typical teaching case
tells a story (that is, something happened, then something else happened, then something
else happened, and so on) about a problem or issue facing a public manager and brings
the reader to a point at which a decision must be made. A good way to get to the heart of
a case is to try and summarize the story in case in one sentence. You may be asked for
such summaries during case discussions.

2

CArcher_Email3014715

Another quality of a good teaching case is that there is no obvious right answer. Rather,
there are many possible answers (decisions, solutions), each of which has advantages and
disadvantages and about which reasonable people may disagree. Therefore, the questions
I ask for each case (at the end of the syllabus) are intentionally broad. You will be asked
to make a good argument for the answer that you believe is the best one. Each case is
intended to force a decision of some kind, and if you complete a memo without making
some sort of recommendation you will lose points. You must take account of the pros
and cons of the approach you are recommending, supporting your answer with evidence
from the case and theoretical insights from the readings. Good arguments usually require
a close and insightful reading of the case.
Case discussions will generally focus on the actions or problems of public managers in
the case as they are caused or influenced by contextual (structural or institutional) factors.
You may be asked, “What would you do (and why)?” You may be asked to play the roles
of actors in the case, and there may be brief, spontaneous, in-class “role plays.” You
should take this role playing (that is, the issues facing the actors in the case) seriously, but
it is OK to have some fun with it.
To prepare for a case discussion, read the case and answer the following questions:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

Who is the decision maker? What decision is to be made?
What are the decision maker’s objectives?
Are there other important actors?
What are their objectives?
What are the key issues (matters of fact or assumption that must be resolved in
reaching a decision)?
What is the context (constraints/opportunities)?
What alternatives should the decision maker consider?
What would you do, and why?

Course Paper and Shadowing Public Managers
It is never fully possible to replicate the context of public management in the classroom.
Instead, this class asks you to shadow an actual public manager. The instructor will
provide a list of managers who have agreed to work with the class, and you will have a
chance to express a preference about which manager you wish to work with (if there is a
manager you would prefer to work with, and is not on the list, please tell the instructor).
Starting in mid to late September, you should start meeting with your assigned manager.
For the remainder of the semester, you should have at least 15 hours contact with the
manager, and at least four visits. The exercise involves more than just interviewing the
manager, but also following the manager around in his/her work context, observing how
the organization works, and talking to other employees.
As a result of shadowing the manager, you will develop a final paper and a presentation.
That paper should a) discuss the organization (its function, culture, political context) and
briefly describe the manager (experience, responsibilities), b) a specific topic that you

3

CArcher_Email3014716

identify in conjunction with your manager (e.g., some decision, committee, report, event,
management issue), and c) what you learned from the experience. The specific topic you
study should be the heart of the paper. You should also include a one page appendix that
details the dates, times and nature of your contacts with the manager.
In general, you are expected to use applicable concepts and ideas from the course to
analyze your topic. That is, while your paper may (indeed, should) include descriptive
material, you are expected to be analytical and not merely descriptive. By analytical, I
mean that you attempt to answer a “why” question: Why did the manager choose a
particular strategy? Why did an innovation succeed or fail? Why is an agency managed
the way that it is? I will be looking for arguments that are based on a
theoretical/conceptual logic applied to the evidence you have gathered.
Do research! Draw upon the class readings relevant to your chosen issue/problem,
readings from other classes (especially the Public Management class taught by Professor
Dresang), check e-indices and databases for relevant articles and information, including
policy and public administration journals and news analyses/editorials. Once you have
defined the issue, identify alternative courses of action for the public manager(s),
including different approaches to dealing with the issue/problem. You should also
consider the context and constraints under which public managers in this agency are
operating. What have we learned from research and practice that is relevant to your
analysis, and what knowledge or information is lacking that the public manager might
need?
In order to start you thinking about your final paper early, you will have a prospectus to
complete by October 10. The prospectus for the course paper should be organized as
follows:
•
your topic: the question or issue you intend to address and why you believe it to
be interesting;
•
your research plan: how you will gather information and evidence to address your
question;
•
obstacles/constraints: any difficulties or problems you might encounter in
completing the course paper;
•
what sort of theories or readings you anticipate using;
•
the kinds of conclusions (or claims) you hope to be able to reach.
You will also be asked to prepare a paper on organizational culture due on October 30.
In this paper would will do a six page analysis of the nature of the culture in the
organization you are studying, using the guidance of the Schein reading assigned for that
day. What is the nature of the organizational culture? How do you know? What are the
relevant symbols and artifacts? Are there multiple organizational cultures in place? How
does the organizational culture shape the behavior of the employees? Is your manager
aware of the organizational culture? Do they try to use it? Use specific examples!
Here are a few guidelines for preparing your final paper.

4

CArcher_Email3014717

•

Your final paper should include enough basic facts and descriptive material
(maps, organization charts, budgets, time lines), either in the text or in
appendices, so that a reader understands the context of your analysis. Provide
basic descriptive material, charts and maps, budgets, organization charts, etc., as
appropriate.

•

State the question or issue you addressing in your course paper clearly and
concisely at the outset. Then tell the reader how your argument will be organized.
If appropriate, give a brief summary of your conclusions.

•

Do not “editorialize” (that is, give opinions unsubstantiated by facts or analysis).
Your conclusions should emerge from dispassionate analysis of evidence. For
example, if your paper is about a successful manager, provide the reader with the
evidence on which to base such a positive conclusion. (Don’t assert that the
Commissioner is such a charismatic, brilliant, caring, and selfless person that
employees will leap off tall buildings for her. Say, instead, that four people
leaped off tall buildings, leaving behind notes saying that they did it because of
their Commissioner’s charisma and brilliance.)

•

Choose topics that pose an intellectual challenge. Address a “why” question
where the answer is by no means obvious, not even to people actually involved.
You will earn more points if you choose a difficult rather than an easy topic and if
your insights are clever or unique rather than ordinary.

•

Your paper should show what is interesting about your topic. It could be
something that is of pressing practical importance and/or of theoretical interest.
For example, each of the case memos identifies something interesting in their
respective organization. It could be the main challenge that the agency faces? In
addition, you should advance some sort of argument about the matter of interest,
e.g. the success of policy X will be limited by the organizational culture of frontline workers.

Class Participation
You are required to attend each class. If you are unable to attend on any given day,
please notify the instructor in advance. You will be expected to have completed all
required readings before coming to class. Since the class is a small seminar, participation
is essential, and will be considered in the case of borderline grades.
What you take away from this course will be determined largely by the quality of the
class discussions. Thus, you should do all of the assigned reading BEFORE we meet for
the class session. If you come unprepared, it will be difficult to make valuable
contributions or to gain from the discussions. John Bryson offers four “hallmarks of
good participation” that I suggest you attempt to follow: a) risk-taking (i.e., presenting an
opposing view or a different interpretation of the readings/information); b) listening, (i.e.,
trying to understand what others are saying and why they are saying it); c) bringing in
your own work-related experiences when relevant to the discussions; and d) monitoring
your own participation in terms of both “air-time” and quality.

Ranking Arguments
Considerable emphasis will be placed on your ability to make sound arguments in your
memos, class discussion and your course paper. Evaluation of arguments will generally
use the following ranking scheme, from the least to the most appropriate type of
argument.
•

(The “no argument” argument) A public manager took particular actions. She
should have taken other actions instead.
Problem: no evidence or reasons are supplied to support the conclusions.

•

(The “Well, Duh!” argument) A public manager took particular actions. She
should have acted differently
▸
▸

for reasons that are obvious in hindsight: (examples: she had no political
support, so she should have mobilized the support she needed; she failed
to win over the constituency that ended up defeating her);
because of principles that, on reflection, always apply (for example:
always consider the values and feelings of your subordinates).

Problem: such answers, emphasizing hindsight, contain none of the kind of
cause-and-effect insight that comes from taking a more analytical approach. Thus
a reader gets warmed-over “counsels of perfection” rather than insight into how to
handle complex public management situations.
•

(The “Who needs theory?” argument) A public manager took particular
actions. It would have been better had she taken different actions [supply clever,
perceptive, non-obvious insight of the following forms]:

6

CArcher_Email3014719

▸
▸

reasoning based on shrewd observation of the evidence in the case or
lessons from personal experience;
reasoning that implies but does not state a more complex theory or concept
of general but not universal validity (example: her actions assumed that
her subordinates would comply, but they stood to gain more by
noncompliance.)

Problem: argument lacks a conceptual or theoretical basis. An insightful
argument of this kind can earn points, however.
•

(The “I know what this course is about” argument) A public manager took
particular actions. It would have been better had she taken different actions
because this is an example of [apply a model/concept that incorporates a causeand-effect logic and
▸
▸

use it as a source of vocabulary for interpreting the facts in the case, then
state conclusions;
apply that logic to the facts of the case and derive conclusions].

The emphasis in these arguments is on applying the logic of analytic models to the facts
of cases or real world problems in order to gain non-obvious, non-descriptive insights
into how the managerial world works.

Additional Guidelines
AMERICANS WITH DISABILITY STATEMENT. The Americans with Disability
Act (ADA) is a federal anti-discrimination statute that provides comprehensive civil
rights protection for persons with disabilities. Among other things, this legislation
requires that all students with disabilities be guaranteed a learning environment that
provides for reasonable accommodation of their disabilities. If you believe you have a
disability requiring accommodation, please advise the instructor.
ACADDEMIC INTEGRITY: As commonly defined, plagiarism consists of passing off
as one’s own ideas, the words, writings, music, graphs/charts, etc. that were created by
another. In accordance with this definition, you are committing plagiarism if you copy
the work of another person and turn it in as your own, even if you have the permission of
that person. It does not matter from where the material is copied–a book, article,
interview, material off the web, another student’s paper–all constitute plagiarism unless
the source of the work is fully identified and credited. Plagiarism is cheating and a
violation of academic and personal integrity and will not be tolerated. It carries
extremely serious consequences. To avoid plagiarism it is necessary when using a
phrase, a distinctive idea, quotation, concept or sentence from another source to reference
that source in your text, a footnote, or endnote.

Case Assignment Instructions
Case Analysis #1 (in-class discussion, not for credit)
Case: Babcock Place
I.

In one sentence, summarize the story in this case.

II.

Who is the decision maker in this case, and what decision must be made?

III.

Who are the actors in this case?

IV

What are the issues (that is, matters that have to be resolved in reaching a
decision) raised by this case? What course of action should the council take?

Case Analysis #2
Two Steps Back
What are the management causes of the rise and decline of the Chicago public school
presented in the show? What general public management principles can you draw from
the case?

Case Analysis #3 (in-class discussion, not for credit)
Department of Social Service: Million Dollar Murray
What does the case tell us about the idea of managerial craft and change?

Case Analysis #4
Leading an International Institution: The Fall of Wolfowitz
Evaluate Wolfowitz as a manager of the World Bank. Was his resignation appropriate?
What should he have done differently in your view?

Case Analysis #5
Knowing the Enemy/The Center for Lessons Learned
Using the readings and the This American Life show, how would you characterize the
challenges to learning that the Department of Defense faces in Iraq? Are there any
principles or practices they could follow to increase learning?

Case Analysis #6
Contracting Exercise
The case is a combination of a class memo and in-class exercise. The goal of the case is
to develop a contract between a Local Mental Health Board (LMHB) and a nonprofit

14

CArcher_Email3014727

mental health services agency (Bridge). The case has its own instructions, which you
should follow unless they contradict the instructions I lay out below. The following steps
are involved:
1) Prepare a contract for the provision of services. Your initial contract is intended to
further the goals of the entity you represent and be at least minimally acceptable to the
other party. If your surname starts with a letter between A-M, you will represent the
LMHB, and surnames N-Z will represent Bridge. Note that each individual prepares
his/her own contract, and will accompany it with a 1-2 page explanatory memo that
covers the basic principles behind the contract. Email me the contract and explanatory
note before class, and bring enough copies for the rest of your team to read.
2) In class, each side will spend about 25 minutes turning the multiple contracts into
one. Bring your laptop if you have one, but I will have mine on hand.
3) Following that, the LMHB and Bridge will negotiate a final contract for an
additional 30 minutes.
4)
This will be followed by a discussion period.
If you want to find actual performance contracts, some of the major W-2 contracts
referred to in the Heinrich and Choi piece are available online. You are not expected to
design a contract to this level of detail, but this is intended merely to give you a sense of
how such contracts are actually done. For example, below is a link to a website you can
obtain W-2 performance contracting in "2004-05 period".
http://www.dwd.state.wi.us/dws/w2/contracts/20042005/default.htm
Detailed information on performance-standards and measurements are specified in
"Appendix B" section(Performance Standards for the 2004-2005 W-2 and Related
Programs Contract). Below is a link to it.
http://www.dwd.state.wi.us/dws/w2/contracts/20022003/appendixes.htm

Case Analysis #7
Financing Slum Rehabilitation in Mumbai: A Nonprofit Caught in the Middle
What does the case (and the readings) tell us about the challenges that NGO managers
like Patel face in a developing context? What should be her next steps?

Case Analysis #8
Executive Response to Changing Fortune: Sean O’ Keefe as NASA Administrator.
Is O’ Keefe a responsible leader, according to criteria laid out by Bertelli and O’ Keefe?

Case Analysis #9
Case: The Fog of War
Pick one of the following two options.
Option A: The filmmaker Errol Morris offers a summary list of what he thinks are the
lessons from McNamara’s life. Come up with your own lessons for public managers, and

15

CArcher_Email3014728

where possible tie to readings supporting your point. Pick two or three, and write a two
page summary.
Option B: McNamara had an extraordinary career ranging from the private sector, the
Department of Defense and the World Bank. Is he an ethical person? Did he act
ethically? What are the ethical lessons that we can take from his life?
You can find a transcript of the movie here:

Cindy:
I had spoken to you earlier today about requesting vacation time around the
Thanksgiving holiday that was not written into my vacation request that was
previously approved.
Therefore, I wanted to request the time off being out from Wednesday, November
21, 2007 and returning to work on Thursday November 29, 2007.
I have spoken to Pam and she has approve that time off. The budget will be
adopted by that time and the final closing of the bond issue takes place the
day before as well as the due date for reports. I will make sure that I meet
those deadlines before leaving town.
I wanted to gain your approval because it is an entire week and I did not
request it earlier this year when my other off times were approved. Thank you
for your time and consideration. If you approve, I will have Kat add my off
time to your calendar.
Thank you,

Re: Schedule with CEX
Thursday, August 02, 2007 7:27:54 PM
High

In addition to the below, I would like to remind you that DAS recommendations
and CEX decisions are confidential and should not be shared with departments
until the CEX is ready to do so. This does not mean that you can't explore
options with departments or seek info on the impact of possible cuts because
that is fine. However actual recommendations should not be shared with
department's at our level without prior approval of the CEX Office.

Also, while we will not be briefing on DAS recommendations related to capital
projects during the operating budget times noted below, I would like the list
of requested capital projects with the brief description attached to each
operating briefing document so the CEX can get a sense of what is being
requested. He also may have strong feelings about some the capital projects
that will give us guidance in developing capital recommendations. Finally,
given the scope of the capital project requests it will be good for him to have
some time to ponder before we go in with our actual recommendations. Please
secure these documents from Pam and James and attach them you your briefing
documents.

I will be meeting with the CEX in the morning at 11:00. I would like a
finalized briefing document and a sample of a capital project document so I can
review with him what to expect when we begin briefings on Monday. You have all
done a very good job in adapting to the new briefing documents and developing
your recommendations. Just so you know, we have a lot to get through in a very
short time. I will suggest to the CEX tomorrow that he may want to read the
documents ahead time to avoid the time required to go through each item.
Hopefully this will happen and we can just focus on the issues/items he wants
to discuss. However, I do not want you to think that just because you may not
get the opportunity to walk through each of your items that you work is no
appreciated. It is quite the contrary. Good briefing documents and
well-founded recommendations will make it possible for us to not have to talk
about each item. So, if it turns out that way, take it as a compliment.

On Monday, Molly and I will start with an overview of where we are at. Part of
the overview will be the hole we are trying to fill now that we have entered in
all the department request. We will then plug in the sum of DAS
recommendations to date to indicate how much work is left to do. We will keep
this as a running tally. What Molly and I need from you on Friday is the input
of your recommendations into to BRASS so we can see where we stand so far. If
you don't have exact amounts, enter your estimates since we a need a good sense
of where we are. We will update this tally daily. In addition, we will keep a
running list of possible add-backs in the event we have some money to allocate
at the end. You will be asked to cost these items out, so we can keep a
running tally on those as well.

Thanks for all your hard work. The next two weeks will definitely be our

crunch time but I know we will produce a budget that we can all be proud of.

Question/Advice
Thursday, August 02, 2007 7:42:48 PM

How do you guys feel about abatements?

I have never seen this done in my 20 years of budgeting, everyone I talk to
hates them and is presents a very bizarre picture of departmental budgets. I
would argue that the cross charges should be budgeted in department budgets to
reflect the true cost of doing business and that the levy that is allocated
related to the abatements be given back to the departments. Another concern I
have is that none of the "charging agencies" seem all that concerned about
their charges and the departments paying the charges don't care because the
cost are abated out. In other words, there is no accountability in the
system. I know from past experience that cross charge tension between
departments and the service providers (charging departments) can be brutal -but it serves a valuable purpose in that it holds the charging agencies
accountable for services and costs.

I have talked to my staff and from a technical standpoint we can eliminate the
abatements/allocate the levy back to departments and make IMSD, facilities, etc
true enterprise funds in the 2008 budget. But I don't want to put all the work
into it only to have it backfire or create a big storm with the Board. Manske,
Fiscal staff and I all think we should get rid of abatements. It would make
for a cleaner, simpler and more transparent budget.

Could use your historical perspective and the benefit of your wisdom on this
issue.

Thanks.

Re: Workshop site information

I assume the CEX Office is converting the slides for the projection and is
taking care of the computer equipment -- correct? Also, someone has been
designated to run the slide show? Please confirm. I just want to make sure
there is nothing left for me to do and that I am not expected to secure or run
the equipment.
I will bring enough copies of the published budget request document to ensure
at least two copies per table. It is my understanding that the CEX Office is
making copies of the slide presenation for the public. Since I have never done
this before please let me know if there is anything else that is expected from
me. :)

Public Hearings begin on Monday. The purpose is to show the public an overview
of the fiscal condition, share with the public what department's have requested
and get their input. The CEX considers these workshops instead of hearings
because the public sits at work tables and gives input on issues. Ed is out
all this week so I did not know if anyone has shared with you the presentation
that the CEX and Department heads will go over. It is attached below. If you
are interested, Dorothy can give you the time and places. We are going
prepping the CEX at 11:00 today-- just FYI.

I am not sure I understand your question.

Which summary document? If you are referring to the summary of budget requests
that we produce every year, it is my expectation that both Molly and Pam sign
off on it and that I read it through quickly one last time. If they have not
signed off on it, they need to do so now.

I assume the CEX Office is converting the slides for the projection and is
taking care of the computer equipment -- correct? Also, someone has been
designated to run the slide show? Please confirm. I just want to make sure
there is nothing left for me to do and that I am not expected to secure or run
the equipment.

I will bring enough copies of the published budget request document to ensure
at least two copies per table. It is my understanding that the CEX Office is
making copies of the slide presenation for the public. Since I have never done
this before please let me know if there is anything else that is expected from
me. :)

In addition to BHD's numbers, there were several people on the lists in
Juvenile Corrections Officer (JCO) positions within DCSD. As you know, the
Detention Center is a 24/7 operation as well, and most of the overtime has been
generated by more youth going through the system. DCSD provided the following
data related to vacancies for JCO’s:
62 funded positions
1 awaiting cert list to fill
4 vacant and funded
9 vacant and unfunded

Cindy, et al:
Thank you for the head's up.
The four BHD employees listed as having earned over $20,000 in OT last year,
along with the three (same names from last year minus one) on a pace to earn
the same amount this year, hold positions and work in the 24/7 areas of the
hospital where chronic vacancies, high FML and sick leave usage, not to mention
normal paid time off for holidays and vacation, or all of these factors, are at
work.
This is no surprise. We have talked publicly and openly about this condition
for months. Yes, it is "alarming." And unhealthy for the employees. And
unhealthy for the work environment. And frustrating to manage. And very
difficult to control. It should come as no surprise that employees of BHD are
well represented in the upper ranks of this list. I fervently wish it were not
so, but it is.
I will be happy to provide an explanation of how each of the three or four BHD
employees end up on this list, if anyone is interested. I know each one of
them. I've seen them here at 8:00 at night, and 3:15 in the morning, and on
weekends and holidays. While I certainly will not vouch for the legitimacy of
every single hour of OT worked by every single employee on this list, these
four employees are among our best, and I am gravely concerned that we will lose
them if we don't find a way out of this vortex. These employees are invaluable
to us; they are not, however, inexhaustible.
Unfortunately, I think it is reasonable to assume that the implicit message in
this story will be, "Here's yet another example of shiftless county bureaucrats
scamming the system and fleecing the taxpayers." I hope I am wrong about this;
I fear I am right. Sadly, what these OT numbers don't show are the
undocumented hundreds of hours of time well in excess of 40 hours a week put in
by administrators here (and elsewhere) who don't get a dime of OT pay but
contribute these additional hours because they are responsible and
conscientious public stewards.
But I am preaching to the choir.
CArcher_Email3014879

Anyway, we currently have the following vacancies: 13 RN 1 FTEs; 4 RN 2s; 8
CNAs; and 1 LPN. These numbers are slightly higher than they were three weeks
ago. They do not include the recently created positions in these
classifications.
If you have any other questions, please let me know.

        MJS request for overtime payments--HEADS UP





Today we fulfilled an open records request for MJS regarding total overtime
CArcher_Email3014880

payments by employee for 2006 and year to date OT payments by employee for
2007. Some of the statistics are alarming in terms of amounts. I have created
two spreadsheets that show the top OT earners for each year. I cut off the
2006 sheet to include only those that earned more than $20K in 2006 and more
than $10K in 2007 (reflecting half year has passed). The sheets are sorted by
amount. Pay particular attention to the columns highlighted at the top.
Please note, the OT pay is in addition to the base pay. This may be a news
story in the next day or so.

Rob, we were very sensitive about the Audit department considering what great
partners they have been. I believe Molly talked to Jerry and he was ok with
the recommendation. In any event, the documents have been distributed to the
CEX. We can discuss during the meeting with CEX. It is not alot of money and
I agree that we definitely do not want to do anything that would appear we are
double crossing Audit -- we can remove it at the briefings when we meet with
Scott but lets hear from Molly first.

Cindy/Molly:
The briefing documents look great. My only requested change is regarding the
Audit document. Jerry Heer is being very magnanimous in allowing me to TAHC
Amos to the Procurement position for as long as it takes to get it changed to
the civil service and then go through a civil process to officially fill the
position. This will likely take us into November or December, which means he
is without the position for close to six months. To further take away funding
for the position for the first three months of 2008 would be extremely unfair
and would amount to my "double crossing" him. Please remove that
recommendation from the document. Thanks.

I'll make time. Just so you know, Monday is a very busy day. I need to work
with Molly first thing in AM to get overview ready for where we stand on
budget, the public hearing is at 10:00 and I think we start budget briefings
with CEX immediately after for the rest of the day. Plus the CEX appears to
meet ASAP to find some money, I guess for Domina, related to the pension
issue. Tuesday is much better if it can wait until then, but if not I will
make it work.

I've missed you and hope you had a nice time. Will be good to have you back!

Hi Cindy. I wanted to let you know that in addition to BHD's fiscal situation
growing worse and worse, the Nurses union will not let up in regard to their
demands. I feel like they're just letting the dollars flow out the door
without any effort to analyze what's going on and to address it. I'm going to
get personally involved and would suggest that you join me, but I obviously
don't want to take you away from the Budget. However, I would like to find 5
minutes to talk to you about this (in addition to everything else we need to
catch up on) on Monday.

I think maybe we need a pre-meeting or phone call on Monday or Tuesday to
discuss not only this, but BHD's ever-worsening fiscal situation. I was
unaware until I asked Pat that her $3.4 million projection -- which itself is
up $400,000 from last time -- includes the transfer from the Contingency Fund,
which means it's actually over $4 million. The Exec is busy with Pension and
budget, and I think we need a game plan to present to him. Corey, maybe you
could have Judy set this up.

I'd like to talk to the Exec as soon as possible on this to get his thoughts.
Unfortunately, I think we're quickly approaching the "line in the sand" on
these issues with FNHP. At some point, we're going to have to say we can't
meet their demands - because it's clear that no matter what we offer to do and
how we plan to work with them, it won't be enough. I'd like to sit down and
strategize and make sure everyone's in agreement about how we respond.

Gentlemen:
I'd appreciate some input on how to respond. I assume we're not going to agree
to meet with them so that they can embarrass us into explaining why the Exec
won't be recommending 25 more nurses, or the creation of a secure unit, or any
of the other costly alternatives they've thrown on the table. Please
understand...I am perfectly willing to do that if that is what we really want
to do as long as we accept the political consequences with our eyes wide open;
ironically, that is the very approach I was advocating for our response when we
first discussed how to reply to her letter, but I appreciate that it was viewed
as too direct and carried politically intolerable consequences. I don't know
that anything on that front has changed.

Jim,
After reviewing your letter and email responses to my letter regarding security
issues I believe the best next step is a meeting to further discuss the issues.
It is not clear to me from your response what you are specifically doing in
regard to the six concrete suggestions made in my letter. For example you
mention some increase in security but how does that equate to the numbers in my
letter. Also our members (and I believe your manager) strongly feel their
needs to be a secure unit created but I can not tell from your response what is
actually going to happen with that recommendation or if it can not be done why
not. I could go on but I feel this would only lead to another series of emails
and letters so that is why I believe we will have better communication in
person. I am available the following dates and times during the next two
weeks: 8th noon until 5pm; 9, 10,13, 15, 16, 17 all day. Unfortunately I am
not available the morning the 14th when the safety committee is meeting.
Please let me know what day and time work for you. I will have Barb, Steve
and Sue at the meeting also.

MILWAUKEE – County Executive Scott Walker will host a series of interactive workshops for
community input on the 2008 budget. Each session will begin with an overview of the budget
process and the requests of county departments. Attendees will then break into small groups to
discuss ideas, areas of concern, and experience the tough choices that need to be made. Copies
of requested budget items will be provided and facilitators are available to help assist with
questions.
The sessions will conclude with summaries from the groups reporting priorities and
recommendations. “This format has worked successfully for the last three years and I look

You are all enrolled in my class, PA 885 Advanced Public Management, this
fall. There is one aspect of the class that it would be helpful for me to get
feedback from you at this point. Two papers, making up 35% of your grade, are
tied to shadowing an actual public/nonprofit manager for about 15 hours over
the course of the semester.
I can find you a manager, mostly likely working in state government, and match
you to him/her. But if there is someone specific you want to be assigned e.g.
someone you have previously worked with, or works in an area you are interested
in, please let me know by Tues, Aug 7. Please confirm with this person they
will be willing to do this (I am happy to explain what is involved ffor them),
or provide me with their information and I will contact them. This will give me
a sense of how many managers I need to recruit for the fall.
Thanks

About This Course
The main goals of this course are (1) to enhance your ability to think analytically about
problems of public management; (2) to enhance your ability to make good arguments
concerning how public management issues might be addressed and (3) to learn about the
craft of management by working with practitioners.
The central of this class it is the issue of how to manage change. Most of you will soon
be in an organization where you face the issue of trying to foster a change in how the
organization does something, e.g. how a program delivers its services, how personnel are
managed. Your organization will also face pressures for external change, from
stakeholders, elected officials or funders. The ability to lead and manage change, to get
things done, is therefore a fundamental skill for someone who expects to prosper an
organizational environment. This course examines a number of concepts that affect the
manager’s ability to shape change, including managerial craft, constraints, organizational
culture, the ability to learn, using third-party actors, autonomy, ethics and leadership.
The course materials include conceptual and analytic literature as well as case materials
and examples drawn from a variety of sources. The idea is that you should use the
conceptual materials to analyze issues raised by the cases and examples.
The cases include studies of schools, examining the role of senior managers such as the
heads of the World Bank, the Department of Defense and NASA, the challenges NGOs
face in a developing context, learning to better wage the war in Iraq, contracting
negotiations between a non-profit and a local government, and seeking solutions to
homelessness. Each case develops major themes relevant to anyone providing public
services in either a domestic or international context.
Required Readings
All assigned readings are either available on electronic reserve or will be distributed to
you prior to class. If there is adequate interest I can also organize to have a reader made
available for purchase from Pickwick Papers (formerly Bob’s Copy Shop) at 1401
University Ave. You need not buy any books.

Assignments
You are expected to complete the following assignments:
•

•

Case Memos: 6 case analyses/memos (no more than two single spaced pages, 12
point font, Times New Roman, 1 inch margins). Cases are due to me via email
before the beginning of class on dates listed in the syllabus, with the exception of
the Fog of War memo. There are 9 teaching cases in the syllabus. 2 of these
cases are for in-class discussion. The other seven ask you to prepare a memo.
You may complete all 7 memos and have your best 6 count. There is no
obligation to complete more than 6 cases. You are obliged to complete the
contracting exercise.
Course Papers: As part of the course, you will be asked to “shadow” an actual
public manager. Based on your contact with this manager, you will be asked to
produce a 15 page (double spaced) course paper, due no later than 9am on
Monday December 18; a 6 page paper on the organizational culture due on
October 30, and a 2 page prospectus due on October 10. During the semester you
should think about how the topic we examine in any given week is relevant to the
manager you are studying.

Note that all written assignments must be submitted electronically. More detail on the
assignments is provided below.

Grading
Your maximum score for the entire course is 100 points. These points may be earned as
follows:
•

each case analysis
culture paper
final paper

10 points, for a total of 60 points;
15 points;
25 points;

Course grades will be based on a modified curve. In general, one standard deviation
above the class mean will earn an A, one standard deviation below the class mean will
earn a C, unless the class mean is sufficiently high to warrant more A’s and fewer C’s.
Any student scoring above a 90 automatically receives an A.

Case Discussions
For most classes, we will discuss and analyze teaching cases. A typical teaching case
tells a story (that is, something happened, then something else happened, then something
else happened, and so on) about a problem or issue facing a public manager and brings
the reader to a point at which a decision must be made. A good way to get to the heart of
a case is to try and summarize the story in case in one sentence. You may be asked for
such summaries during case discussions.

2

CArcher_Email3014947

Another quality of a good teaching case is that there is no obvious right answer. Rather,
there are many possible answers (decisions, solutions), each of which has advantages and
disadvantages and about which reasonable people may disagree. Therefore, the questions
I ask for each case (at the end of the syllabus) are intentionally broad. You will be asked
to make a good argument for the answer that you believe is the best one. Each case is
intended to force a decision of some kind, and if you complete a memo without making
some sort of recommendation you will lose points. You must take account of the pros
and cons of the approach you are recommending, supporting your answer with evidence
from the case and theoretical insights from the readings. Good arguments usually require
a close and insightful reading of the case.
Case discussions will generally focus on the actions or problems of public managers in
the case as they are caused or influenced by contextual (structural or institutional) factors.
You may be asked, “What would you do (and why)?” You may be asked to play the roles
of actors in the case, and there may be brief, spontaneous, in-class “role plays.” You
should take this role playing (that is, the issues facing the actors in the case) seriously, but
it is OK to have some fun with it.
To prepare for a case discussion, read the case and answer the following questions:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

Who is the decision maker? What decision is to be made?
What are the decision maker’s objectives?
Are there other important actors?
What are their objectives?
What are the key issues (matters of fact or assumption that must be resolved in
reaching a decision)?
What is the context (constraints/opportunities)?
What alternatives should the decision maker consider?
What would you do, and why?

Course Paper and Shadowing Public Managers
It is never fully possible to replicate the context of public management in the classroom.
Instead, this class asks you to shadow an actual public manager. The instructor will
provide a list of managers who have agreed to work with the class, and you will have a
chance to express a preference about which manager you wish to work with (if there is a
manager you would prefer to work with, and is not on the list, please tell the instructor).
Starting in mid to late September, you should start meeting with your assigned manager.
For the remainder of the semester, you should have at least 15 hours contact with the
manager, and at least four visits. The exercise involves more than just interviewing the
manager, but also following the manager around in his/her work context, observing how
the organization works, and talking to other employees.
As a result of shadowing the manager, you will develop a final paper and a presentation.
That paper should a) discuss the organization (its function, culture, political context) and
briefly describe the manager (experience, responsibilities), b) a specific topic that you

3

CArcher_Email3014948

identify in conjunction with your manager (e.g., some decision, committee, report, event,
management issue), and c) what you learned from the experience. The specific topic you
study should be the heart of the paper. You should also include a one page appendix that
details the dates, times and nature of your contacts with the manager.
In general, you are expected to use applicable concepts and ideas from the course to
analyze your topic. That is, while your paper may (indeed, should) include descriptive
material, you are expected to be analytical and not merely descriptive. By analytical, I
mean that you attempt to answer a “why” question: Why did the manager choose a
particular strategy? Why did an innovation succeed or fail? Why is an agency managed
the way that it is? I will be looking for arguments that are based on a
theoretical/conceptual logic applied to the evidence you have gathered.
Do research! Draw upon the class readings relevant to your chosen issue/problem,
readings from other classes (especially the Public Management class taught by Professor
Dresang), check e-indices and databases for relevant articles and information, including
policy and public administration journals and news analyses/editorials. Once you have
defined the issue, identify alternative courses of action for the public manager(s),
including different approaches to dealing with the issue/problem. You should also
consider the context and constraints under which public managers in this agency are
operating. What have we learned from research and practice that is relevant to your
analysis, and what knowledge or information is lacking that the public manager might
need?
In order to start you thinking about your final paper early, you will have a prospectus to
complete by October 10. The prospectus for the course paper should be organized as
follows:
•
your topic: the question or issue you intend to address and why you believe it to
be interesting;
•
your research plan: how you will gather information and evidence to address your
question;
•
obstacles/constraints: any difficulties or problems you might encounter in
completing the course paper;
•
what sort of theories or readings you anticipate using;
•
the kinds of conclusions (or claims) you hope to be able to reach.
You will also be asked to prepare a paper on organizational culture due on October 30.
In this paper would will do a six page analysis of the nature of the culture in the
organization you are studying, using the guidance of the Schein reading assigned for that
day. What is the nature of the organizational culture? How do you know? What are the
relevant symbols and artifacts? Are there multiple organizational cultures in place? How
does the organizational culture shape the behavior of the employees? Is your manager
aware of the organizational culture? Do they try to use it? Use specific examples!
Here are a few guidelines for preparing your final paper.

4

CArcher_Email3014949

•

Your final paper should include enough basic facts and descriptive material
(maps, organization charts, budgets, time lines), either in the text or in
appendices, so that a reader understands the context of your analysis. Provide
basic descriptive material, charts and maps, budgets, organization charts, etc., as
appropriate.

•

State the question or issue you addressing in your course paper clearly and
concisely at the outset. Then tell the reader how your argument will be organized.
If appropriate, give a brief summary of your conclusions.

•

Do not “editorialize” (that is, give opinions unsubstantiated by facts or analysis).
Your conclusions should emerge from dispassionate analysis of evidence. For
example, if your paper is about a successful manager, provide the reader with the
evidence on which to base such a positive conclusion. (Don’t assert that the
Commissioner is such a charismatic, brilliant, caring, and selfless person that
employees will leap off tall buildings for her. Say, instead, that four people
leaped off tall buildings, leaving behind notes saying that they did it because of
their Commissioner’s charisma and brilliance.)

•

Choose topics that pose an intellectual challenge. Address a “why” question
where the answer is by no means obvious, not even to people actually involved.
You will earn more points if you choose a difficult rather than an easy topic and if
your insights are clever or unique rather than ordinary.

•

Your paper should show what is interesting about your topic. It could be
something that is of pressing practical importance and/or of theoretical interest.
For example, each of the case memos identifies something interesting in their
respective organization. It could be the main challenge that the agency faces? In
addition, you should advance some sort of argument about the matter of interest,
e.g. the success of policy X will be limited by the organizational culture of frontline workers.

Class Participation
You are required to attend each class. If you are unable to attend on any given day,
please notify the instructor in advance. You will be expected to have completed all
required readings before coming to class. Since the class is a small seminar, participation
is essential, and will be considered in the case of borderline grades.
What you take away from this course will be determined largely by the quality of the
class discussions. Thus, you should do all of the assigned reading BEFORE we meet for
the class session. If you come unprepared, it will be difficult to make valuable
contributions or to gain from the discussions. John Bryson offers four “hallmarks of
good participation” that I suggest you attempt to follow: a) risk-taking (i.e., presenting an
opposing view or a different interpretation of the readings/information); b) listening, (i.e.,
trying to understand what others are saying and why they are saying it); c) bringing in
your own work-related experiences when relevant to the discussions; and d) monitoring
your own participation in terms of both “air-time” and quality.

Ranking Arguments
Considerable emphasis will be placed on your ability to make sound arguments in your
memos, class discussion and your course paper. Evaluation of arguments will generally
use the following ranking scheme, from the least to the most appropriate type of
argument.
•

(The “no argument” argument) A public manager took particular actions. She
should have taken other actions instead.
Problem: no evidence or reasons are supplied to support the conclusions.

•

(The “Well, Duh!” argument) A public manager took particular actions. She
should have acted differently
▸
▸

for reasons that are obvious in hindsight: (examples: she had no political
support, so she should have mobilized the support she needed; she failed
to win over the constituency that ended up defeating her);
because of principles that, on reflection, always apply (for example:
always consider the values and feelings of your subordinates).

Problem: such answers, emphasizing hindsight, contain none of the kind of
cause-and-effect insight that comes from taking a more analytical approach. Thus
a reader gets warmed-over “counsels of perfection” rather than insight into how to
handle complex public management situations.
•

(The “Who needs theory?” argument) A public manager took particular
actions. It would have been better had she taken different actions [supply clever,
perceptive, non-obvious insight of the following forms]:

6

CArcher_Email3014951

▸
▸

reasoning based on shrewd observation of the evidence in the case or
lessons from personal experience;
reasoning that implies but does not state a more complex theory or concept
of general but not universal validity (example: her actions assumed that
her subordinates would comply, but they stood to gain more by
noncompliance.)

Problem: argument lacks a conceptual or theoretical basis. An insightful
argument of this kind can earn points, however.
•

(The “I know what this course is about” argument) A public manager took
particular actions. It would have been better had she taken different actions
because this is an example of [apply a model/concept that incorporates a causeand-effect logic and
▸
▸

use it as a source of vocabulary for interpreting the facts in the case, then
state conclusions;
apply that logic to the facts of the case and derive conclusions].

The emphasis in these arguments is on applying the logic of analytic models to the facts
of cases or real world problems in order to gain non-obvious, non-descriptive insights
into how the managerial world works.

AMERICANS WITH DISABILITY STATEMENT. The Americans with Disability
Act (ADA) is a federal anti-discrimination statute that provides comprehensive civil
rights protection for persons with disabilities. Among other things, this legislation
requires that all students with disabilities be guaranteed a learning environment that

ACADDEMIC INTEGRITY: As commonly defined, plagiarism consists of passing off
as one’s own ideas, the words, writings, music, graphs/charts, etc. that were created by
another. In accordance with this definition, you are committing plagiarism if you copy
the work of another person and turn it in as your own, even if you have the permission of
that person. It does not matter from where the material is copied–a book, article,
interview, material off the web, another student’s paper–all constitute plagiarism unless
the source of the work is fully identified and credited. Plagiarism is cheating and a
violation of academic and personal integrity and will not be tolerated. It carries
extremely serious consequences. To avoid plagiarism it is necessary when using a
phrase, a distinctive idea, quotation, concept or sentence from another source to reference
that source in your text, a footnote, or endnote.

Case Assignment Instructions
Case Analysis #1 (in-class discussion, not for credit)
Case: Babcock Place
I.

In one sentence, summarize the story in this case.

II.

Who is the decision maker in this case, and what decision must be made?

III.

Who are the actors in this case?

IV

What are the issues (that is, matters that have to be resolved in reaching a
decision) raised by this case? What course of action should the council take?

Case Analysis #2
Two Steps Back
What are the management causes of the rise and decline of the Chicago public school
presented in the show? What general public management principles can you draw from
the case?

Case Analysis #3 (in-class discussion, not for credit)
Department of Social Service: Million Dollar Murray
What does the case tell us about the idea of managerial craft and change?

Case Analysis #4
Leading an International Institution: The Fall of Wolfowitz
Evaluate Wolfowitz as a manager of the World Bank. Was his resignation appropriate?
What should he have done differently in your view?

Case Analysis #5
Knowing the Enemy/The Center for Lessons Learned
Using the readings and the This American Life show, how would you characterize the
challenges to learning that the Department of Defense faces in Iraq? Are there any
principles or practices they could follow to increase learning?

Case Analysis #6
Contracting Exercise
The case is a combination of a class memo and in-class exercise. The goal of the case is
to develop a contract between a Local Mental Health Board (LMHB) and a nonprofit

14

CArcher_Email3014959

mental health services agency (Bridge). The case has its own instructions, which you
should follow unless they contradict the instructions I lay out below. The following steps
are involved:
1) Prepare a contract for the provision of services. Your initial contract is intended to
further the goals of the entity you represent and be at least minimally acceptable to the
other party. If your surname starts with a letter between A-M, you will represent the
LMHB, and surnames N-Z will represent Bridge. Note that each individual prepares
his/her own contract, and will accompany it with a 1-2 page explanatory memo that
covers the basic principles behind the contract. Email me the contract and explanatory
note before class, and bring enough copies for the rest of your team to read.
2) In class, each side will spend about 25 minutes turning the multiple contracts into
one. Bring your laptop if you have one, but I will have mine on hand.
3) Following that, the LMHB and Bridge will negotiate a final contract for an
additional 30 minutes.
4)
This will be followed by a discussion period.
If you want to find actual performance contracts, some of the major W-2 contracts
referred to in the Heinrich and Choi piece are available online. You are not expected to
design a contract to this level of detail, but this is intended merely to give you a sense of
how such contracts are actually done. For example, below is a link to a website you can
obtain W-2 performance contracting in "2004-05 period".
http://www.dwd.state.wi.us/dws/w2/contracts/20042005/default.htm
Detailed information on performance-standards and measurements are specified in
"Appendix B" section(Performance Standards for the 2004-2005 W-2 and Related
Programs Contract). Below is a link to it.
http://www.dwd.state.wi.us/dws/w2/contracts/20022003/appendixes.htm

Case Analysis #7
Financing Slum Rehabilitation in Mumbai: A Nonprofit Caught in the Middle
What does the case (and the readings) tell us about the challenges that NGO managers
like Patel face in a developing context? What should be her next steps?

Case Analysis #8
Executive Response to Changing Fortune: Sean O’ Keefe as NASA Administrator.
Is O’ Keefe a responsible leader, according to criteria laid out by Bertelli and O’ Keefe?

Case Analysis #9
Case: The Fog of War
Pick one of the following two options.
Option A: The filmmaker Errol Morris offers a summary list of what he thinks are the
lessons from McNamara’s life. Come up with your own lessons for public managers, and

15

CArcher_Email3014960

where possible tie to readings supporting your point. Pick two or three, and write a two
page summary.
Option B: McNamara had an extraordinary career ranging from the private sector, the
Department of Defense and the World Bank. Is he an ethical person? Did he act
ethically? What are the ethical lessons that we can take from his life?
You can find a transcript of the movie here:
http://www.errolmorris.com/film/fow_transcript.html.
Note that this assignment is due after the class rather than on the day of the class, on
December 3rd, at 9 a.m.

I have Dan and Chad working togehter to establish a seperate housing division
in DHSS that would work closely with BHD. It would consist of special needs
housing and the housing programs in ED. They will do a org chart and identify
any costs assoicated with the proposal. Economic Development would stay wtih
DAS and would include real estate, land sales and CDBG. I felt we need to get
at least get something on the table to respond to so we are moving in this
direction.

        John Martin





Good Afternoon Rob/Cindy,
        As you may or may not already know, John Martin, Fiscal and Budget
Manager for the department has just tendered his resignation (retiring)
effective Monday August 27, 2007. John has accepted another position in the
private sector. I have asked if there's anything we could do to have him
change his mind, however, it appears that the money situation and overall
gloomy picture here at the County has put him out beyond our reach. As you
know, this is a critical position for the department and John's departure could
not have come at a worse time as we prepare to move forward on budgets. I would
respectfully ask that we move quickly to fill this vacancy as soon as possible.
I would also like to ask that I again be allowed to be involved in the hiring
and decision making process, since this position is assigned to this department
and I work with this person directly. John has stated in his resignation
letter, that his vacation and personal time would keep him on the books until
early October; obviously, keeping the position open that long would not be
practical. I am also concerned that his accumulated time on the books for which
we are responsible will also have a detrimental effect on our already skinny
budget. I would appreciate your thoughts and feedback on how we can move
forward as soon as possible. Please feel free to give me a call should you have
any questions or if I can be of any help.
Thanks,

Further cuts
Wednesday, August 08, 2007 8:26:50 AM

After looking at the possible add back list, we need to start a further cuts
list. We have added some things back or taken some options off the table that
I think we need to put on a list for reconsideration. For example, the
culutural institutions and after meeting with Rob, we restored some items in
DHSS by taking cuts elsewhere. Please work with analysts to prepare a possible
cut list that we may need to revisit at the end of the process. Thanks.

We need to remember to talk to the CEX about the bones at our status meeting.
I asked the professor to send us a copy of what Marq is going to send to the
Historical Society and he also agreed to give legal a write of of his rationale
for keeping the bones. We talked about the CEX and someone from Marquette
(high up) maybe working togehter in Madison or at least the CEX putting a call
into a couple of legislators. The professor called the SHS a bunch of
"bullies" so he thought the legislative route might be more helpful. Maybe a
joint letter or phone call. But we need to get the material he promised to
give to Scott and then see what Scott wants to do.

J Martin retirement
Thursday, August 09, 2007 1:19:24 PM

I asked Alex to look into the payout issue related to John Martin's
retirement. John is budgeted in DAS but charged back to DTPW.
John currently has about six weeks of vacation on the books. Assuming he takes
no vacation between now and the time he retires, he will stay on the payroll
for six weeks beyond his retirement date. It is my understanding that we do
not cash out vacation because it is to the County's benefit to keep people on
the payroll. Per Alex his position cannot be double filled without Board
approval. In addition, he has approx $56,000 in sick leave payout that he will
be able to get. This will be charged back to DTPW. I am telling you this info
so you can evaluate the timing for filling his position. As you can see there
are fiscal issues as well as procedural ones related to his remaining on the
payroll.
Alex has the details.

Hi John and Greg
I have looked in the files and cannot find the email I sent to Erik Thelen at
MU with the proposal for curation. Essentially it was based on the following:
-documentary research associated with the burials will continue and
-scientific work will continue with the collection all of which has three
general objectives
a. the analyses will continue to help expand our knowledge of the health
history of an impoverished population and in so doing help researchers refine
clinical models of the progression of a variety of pathologies;
b. the skeletal collection will continue to serve as a training and research
resource for students in anatomy, biological anthropology, dentistry, and
forensic science (for advanced undergraduates as well as graduate students from
other universities); and
c. the scientific work will all ultimately be aimed at generating information
that will make it possible to determine the identities of the people buried in
the almshouse cemetery.
This final point is particularly important to me since the documentary record
of the late 19th and early 20th centuries informs us that many of the people
interred in the cemetery were horrified at the prospect of burial in an
unmarked grave. Therefore, I look on this as an attempt to fulfill the final
wishes of the deceased and a fundamental measure of respect for the dead.
Scientific work without this objective simply treats the deceased as specimens
and strikes me as disrespectful and indefensible. I should note that Dr.
Richards, a staff member in the UW-Milwaukee anthropology department and, I
believe, a member of the burial sites board of SHS thought she had identified
something on the order of 150 or so individuals (you may recall that she was
one of the excavators of the cemetery). Subsequent analyses have demonstrated
that Dr. Richards was mistaken and maybe identified one or two individuals,
although in one of those examples of academic pique she refuses to acknowledge
her mistake. I know that she has already tried to make the argument with SHS
and it may play a role as they make their decision about final disposition.
I hope this is of some help in providing clarification of the goals for long
term curation at Marquette. I do not regard anything here as confidential so
please feel free to share this with anyone who, in your estimation, should see
it. Likewise for Greg to pass this on to anyone deemed appropriate such as the
Tosa Almshouse Cemetery Assn. If there is something that's unclear or you have
any questions please feel free to call.
Take care
Norm Sullivan

Let me know what you would like to do on this, Cindy. If it is true that they
are giving up their accountant effective 8/17, then I am open to doing it,
provided that we can afford it budgetarily. If budget is the issue, then maybe
we can compromise and tell them this is OK effective September 30 or something
(I forget the date that Martin goes off payroll). If you still want to look at
doing something else with the position in the budget, then I think we should
get George in here ASAP and talk to him about it.

        Retirement of John Martin





Mr. Henken,
As you may be aware, John Martin, the Fiscal Administrator for DTPW, is
retiring effective 8-24-07. Given that Mr. Martin's position is essential to
DTPW operations, we are exploring the option of temporarily assigning a current
employee within DTPW to a higher classsification (TAHC). Mr. Martin's
position is currently in ORG #1151, DAS. Ordinarily this process would be done
internally through a DTPW Department Head. However, since ORG #1151 is under
your direction, the request would have to come from you or a designee in your
area. It is also my understanding that a certification request must be on file
with DHR in order to request a TAHC. We can certainly process the paperwork in
our area for you, but I would like some direction on how to proceed on this
matter from you. We have an Accountant IV vacating their positon in our Fiscal
Department effective 8-17-07 as well, so this matter have become rather urgent.

Please advise at your convenience,

in DTPW, he needs to bring it to me today. Lets see what they both come up
with and then we can talk to determine next steps. They know this is high
priority. I will get back to you.

I don't think DAS should pay for this. Do you have any ideas in terms of

A/E pay for it? DTPW? Parks? What do you think would be most appropriate?

Pam,

Our fee for creating an RFP, collecting and evaluating bids, and closing the
transaction for each tax-exempt leasing financing for the County would not
exceed $5,000 based on the hourly fee schedule in our existing contract. Third
party expenses (e.g. advertising in the Daily Reporter) are not included in the
$5,000.

We look forward to hearing back from you. Thanks,

Pressing issues
Friday, August 10, 2007 8:11:52 AM
High

Scott, there are three issues in your area that are all pressing -- the final
numbers on the 2007 fiscal projections; an updated health care estimate and an
updated pension estimate.

The Walker letter directed us to get back to him within 30 days on the revised
2007 estimate. Are the numbers you gave me earlier in the week our final or
are you still tweaking?

I have asked Pam to set up a meeting early Wednesday morning with PFM, Rob, you
and I to reach some consensus on what to assume on POBs for 2008. If you
cannot attend the meeting, I need you to colloborate with Pam and PFM before
the meeting to ensure that you input is recognized in their final product.

As Rob mentioned yesterday, once you health care numbers are re-estimated we
need to sit down with Rob and Arena for any modifications that may need to be
made.

My time pressure right now is to come up with reasonable assumptions to plug
into the 2008 budget model by the end of next Thursday when the we complete the
DAS briefings with the CEX. This will allow us to know roughly where we are at
before he starts his meetings with departments the following Monday. I don't
need perfection on Health care or pension, but I need a pretty good ball park
number. Right now we have assumed a $2 million health care savings beyond what
we projected when we put the fringe budget together.

We need to talk to develop a game plan. Please come see me today.

2007 budget projections -- update
Friday, August 10, 2007 10:01:01 AM
2007 Mid-Year Budget Projections.pdf

Per my July 12 memo we have completed our review of the balances in the 8500
account series and the encumbrances that were over a year old. As you recall,
we requested departments to provide us justification by August 1 on the need to
proceed with 8500 account series purchases and the need to keep the old
encumbrances open. I have attached the July 12 memo to refresh your memory.
Staff is DAS fiscal has worked closely with departments to review justification
for releases of funds from 8500 account series and the continuation of the
encumbrances older than a year old. You have been notified of approvals by
your DAS analysts. For departments that submitted no requests or
justification, we have made the assumption that the funds are not required for
the remainder of the year. If approvals have not been gained, the funds for
both the 8500 account series and the long-term encumbrances will remain frozen
with the expectation that these funds will drop to the bottom line at the end
of the fiscal year and offset our projected deficit.
Mr. Manske is in the process of compiling your 2nd quarter projections and
making adjustments for the savings we noted above. Once that is done, I will
communicate where we stand.
The process outlined in the July 12 memo for filling vacancies will remain in

CArcher_Email3014987

effect until further notice.
I appreciate everyone's time and cooperation in attempting to find savings for
2007. To the extent we meet our goal, the 2008 budget will be easier.

storm I remember. It was late last June as my Dad and I sat on his porch
overlooking the hill country of Texas. He was in his wheel chair and I was
sitting next to him in a lawn chair. We were both in our bare feet. The heat
of the day started to cool down as the clouds moved in. The sky became dark
and the warm south Texas winds began to blow. All the vegetation was burned
out from the hot summer, but there was one bush down the hill across the road
that had bright purple flowers on it. It stood in stark contrast to the brown
baron rocks and scrub around it. I pointed it out to my Dad and we commented
how pretty it was. The winds began to blow harder and the thunder began to
sound and the skies became dark. As the rain began to gently fall it dripped
off the porch roof onto the wood railing and splattered on our bare feet. We
sat in silence. At that moment I could feel my Dad’s peace and gratitude as I
am sure he could feel mine. I remember thinking what a special moment this was
as the rain began to fall harder and then began to pour from the skies. The
drops that had been gently falling on our feet became a hard rain that began to
beat upon our bare legs. I wondered when was the last time my Dad allowed
himself to sit and feel the rain and I reflected that I could not recall the
last time I had. The skies were dark, the wind was warm and the rain was a
cool respite from the Texas heat. As I sat on the curb yesterday and allowed
the rain to fall on me, I could see our bare feet taking in the rain sitting on
that porch in Texas and the purple flowers on that bush that seemed to glow in
the dark. What my Dad did not tell me was that the blossoms on that bush
lasted only days. The next time I sat on that porch, I was alone. I looked
out over the Texas hill Country that seemed to be scorching in the hot sun. As
I gently rocked myself on the glider, I happened to notice the blooms on the
bush were gone. The bush looked like all the other burnt out scrub – dry and
baron. The small pocket of brilliant color that seemed to glow in the dark was
gone and so was he. As I sat on the curb yesterday and allowed the rain to
fall on me listening to the sounds of thunder rolling in, I thought of our bare
wet feet on the wooden porch looking out over the Texas hill country.

I will write more later. Suffice it to say I miss you. I am glad you have
Molly (I wish I had her!). She is a godsend plus personally she grew to mean
alot to me.
In terms of the budget -- there are several large items I am keeping track of.
One is the the levy limit you mentioned below. I am assuming the current law
levy limit (2% of last year actual or new construction growth whichever is
greater). The Governor's cap was 4% of last years maximum allowable or new
construction growth. The Assembly has gone back to what is basically current
law. So I have stuck with current law which is more conservative. Does not
matter much here since the CEX wants 0 growth in levy -- but I do get asked the
question.
The other state budget item that will impact county budgets is youth aids. All
versions of the state budget increase the rates counties pay for housing a
juvenile in state institution dramatically -- for us it is a $7 million hit.
The Governor and Joint Finance provided funds to almost cover the increase via
increased youth aids funding -- the assembly left the cost increase but
eliminated the increased funding to counties. You may want to talk to human
services to see what they assumed.
The last one of course is shared revenue -- the gov and JFC assumed increased
funding the assembly has cut it -- what is a person to do? I assumed flat.
It is all a crap shoot! The racket we are in.
I will write more a personal level later. I have meeting waiting for me.
Did you want Judy to quit or did she just melt down and quit?
PLEASE MAKE ME LAUGH!!!

Subject: RE:
Cindy,
I miss the laughs we had too. You are not far from our thoughts – every so
often something will come up from the past, you come to mind, and that gives us
a light heart for the rest of the day.
I’m still trying to fill the Finance Director position. There were only two
applicants worth interviewing – one of the applicants is someone I mentored for
most of her career. It’s bogged down in HR with background checks and
references so I hope she doesn’t get cold feet before its final. Molly told
you that Judy left – the meeting was painful but I stayed very reserved – in
one of her past tirades I found out that this gets under her skin. I’m looking
for an IS Director now and I do have another recruit, but I know he has his
feelers out on a few other opportunities (remember the guy we wanted before the
bomb last fall?)….he’s still interested.
The budget doesn’t seem too crazy yet, except that I’m in budget meetings all
day. How can you tell how big the hole is without the state levy limits,
etc.? I’m worried I’m going to have a scare at the end, but so far so good.
Old debt being paid off is helping us, but if that formula changes by the State
I’ll be scrambling. For the most part we covered only the meager salary
increases and other costs that are out of the department’s control.
My family has been on vacation last week and this week. I obviously couldn’t
take that much time off. It’s been a humbling experience for me. I thought
they would never survive without me, but I guess they taught me! They were in
Houghton MI last week and Traverse City MI this week. I cleaned all my
carpets, and one night I sat down to see how much I had in my retirement and
how soon that may happen. A little pity party attended by only me. The next
night I went out and bought a new digital camera, so there goes my retirement
plans fo now.
I’ve been working many, many hours. This has to end. It feels like everything
that is to be done somehow makes its way to my desk. The only Molly-time is
after hours so we can go over my mail, etc. I don’t know what I’d do without
her.
Dawn will be back from maternity leave later this month. I did hire a Budget
Analyst – she’s very good, and will continue to improve once she gets more
CArcher_Email3015000

familiar with all the crazy things here. The system selection has been made
(New World). We are working on the vendor contract agreement and the lawyers
will need to meet face-to-face soon. We are all excited, but most people don’t
have a clue about the work in front of us. We won’t begin anything until the
budget is issued October 1st.
Take good care of yourself. I was moved by your story about your father. It’s
good enough for publication. You are a great writer. If county government
work ever gets too much for you to take you certainly have marketable writing
talent. Speaking of writing, several months ago Paul Brinkman got the axe from
the Press Gazette.

because we have no real rationale for it and he feels the Board will eat us

Rob and Cindy:
I received an e-mail from Barbara Beckert recently in which she expressed
concern about the phrasing in the BHD slide narrative regarding the $750,000
reduction. That bullet currently reads: "Expenditure reduction of $750,000 due
to contractual savings in both clinical and non-clinical services." (italics
mine)
Barbara had attended the Brown Deer budget session. County supervisor Joe Rice
(her supervisor) was at her table and asked about this item. She said Joe had
the impression from the wording of this bullet that it did not represent actual
service cuts, but rather that we somehow "found savings" of $750,000 that could
be claimed without impacting service levels. The county manager (not
identified in Barbara's e-mail) facilitating the discussion at the table
essentially reinforced that impression.
This impression is most certainly NOT accurate. There will indeed be cuts in
both clinical and non-clinical services to people if this reduction is
implemented, and those cuts will be felt.
I know this evening is the last of the community budget meetings, but if at all
possible, it would be helpful if this bullet could be changed to read as
follows: "Reduction of $750,000 in clinical and non-clinical
purchase-of-service contracts."

I checked on the sick balance for John Martin and I will check with Scott about
the Champine suit but the dollar amount looks significantly lower - I am not
sure if Champine would pay it all out or not. I will get back to you both.

I have figured the sick payout for John G. Martin for a normal non rep
employee, i.e. 400 hours plus 16% of the balance after. 640.0 hours X $30.9822
= $19,828.60.
However, according to Mr. Martin, he should be eligible for the Champine
Lawsuit settlement of additional sick time payout. Please contact Scott Manske
to see if he is eligible and what the dollar amount would be.

Hi GloriaI am trying to get an estimate for the sick leave pay out for a retirement
(John Martin) and I am wondering what the rule is for sick leave payouts for
non-reps. I am sure it is very complicated but if you can give me an idea that
would be great so I can get an estimated costs asap.
Thanks,

I asked Alex to look into the payout issue related to John Martin's
retirement. John is budgeted in DAS but charged back to DTPW.
John currently has about six weeks of vacation on the books. Assuming he takes
no vacation between now and the time he retires, he will stay on the payroll
for six weeks beyond his retirement date. It is my understanding that we do
not cash out vacation because it is to the County's benefit to keep people on
the payroll. Per Alex his position cannot be double filled without Board
approval. In addition, he has approx $56,000 in sick leave payout that he will
be able to get. This will be charged back to DTPW. I am telling you this info
so you can evaluate the timing for filling his position. As you can see there
are fiscal issues as well as procedural ones related to his remaining on the
payroll.
Alex has the details.

Let me know what you would like to do on this, Cindy. If it is true that they
are giving up their accountant effective 8/17, then I am open to doing it,
provided that we can afford it budgetarily. If budget is the issue, then maybe
we can compromise and tell them this is OK effective September 30 or something
(I forget the date that Martin goes off payroll). If you still want to look at
doing something else with the position in the budget, then I think we should
get George in here ASAP and talk to him about it.

Retirement of John Martin





Mr. Henken,
As you may be aware, John Martin, the Fiscal Administrator for DTPW, is
retiring effective 8-24-07. Given that Mr. Martin's position is essential to
DTPW operations, we are exploring the option of temporarily assigning a current
employee within DTPW to a higher classsification (TAHC). Mr. Martin's
position is currently in ORG #1151, DAS. Ordinarily this process would be done
internally through a DTPW Department Head. However, since ORG #1151 is under
your direction, the request would have to come from you or a designee in your
area. It is also my understanding that a certification request must be on file
with DHR in order to request a TAHC. We can certainly process the paperwork in
our area for you, but I would like some direction on how to proceed on this
matter from you. We have an Accountant IV vacating their positon in our Fiscal
Department effective 8-17-07 as well, so this matter have become rather urgent.

Please advise at your convenience,

Hi Molly,
I have encumbered money for the TRIP contracts in the past and it seems high at
this point. But - the old TRIP contract will also have payouts in 2008 for work
done in 2005. Should my TRIP contract release some money at this time?

        2007 budget projections -- update





Per my July 12 memo we have completed our review of the balances in the 8500
account series and the encumbrances that were over a year old. As you recall,
we requested departments to provide us justification by August 1 on the need to
CArcher_Email3015020

proceed with 8500 account series purchases and the need to keep the old
encumbrances open. I have attached the July 12 memo to refresh your memory.
Staff is DAS fiscal has worked closely with departments to review justification
for releases of funds from 8500 account series and the continuation of the
encumbrances older than a year old. You have been notified of approvals by
your DAS analysts. For departments that submitted no requests or
justification, we have made the assumption that the funds are not required for
the remainder of the year. If approvals have not been gained, the funds for
both the 8500 account series and the long-term encumbrances will remain frozen
with the expectation that these funds will drop to the bottom line at the end
of the fiscal year and offset our projected deficit.
Mr. Manske is in the process of compiling your 2nd quarter projections and
making adjustments for the savings we noted above. Once that is done, I will
communicate where we stand.
The process outlined in the July 12 memo for filling vacancies will remain in
effect until further notice.
I appreciate everyone's time and cooperation in attempting to find savings for
2007. To the extent we meet our goal, the 2008 budget will be easier.

My problem is that you are projecting a deficit in 2007. In essence if you buy
copiers at this point I have to take the money from another department to pay
for them. I don't know what you expect me to do. I have no problem with the
copiers, my problem is finding money to pay for them given your deficit.

        June 2008 vacation request





Good Morning Cindy,
I would like to request vacation time for June 16 to June 24. The airline is
working on finding us frequent flyer seats on a flight to Italy in June 2008
(therefore the need to book early). The leaving date is not firm yet - it might
end up being either Sunday June 15 or Monday June 16. We have requested Tuesday
June 17.
June is at the end of my busy season for tax intercept.

Any idea when my funds will be released? Murdale painting has not moved
forward....which we are getting sort of late to do, and valve replacement needs
to be completed by the time the snow flies or refunds to the non-county users.

CArcher_Email3015029




Per my July 12 memo we have completed our review of the balances in the 8500
account series and the encumbrances that were over a year old. As you recall,
we requested departments to provide us justification by August 1 on the need to
proceed with 8500 account series purchases and the need to keep the old
encumbrances open. I have attached the July 12 memo to refresh your memory.
Staff is DAS fiscal has worked closely with departments to review justification
for releases of funds from 8500 account series and the continuation of the
encumbrances older than a year old. You have been notified of approvals by
your DAS analysts. For departments that submitted no requests or
justification, we have made the assumption that the funds are not required for
the remainder of the year. If approvals have not been gained, the funds for
both the 8500 account series and the long-term encumbrances will remain frozen
with the expectation that these funds will drop to the bottom line at the end
of the fiscal year and offset our projected deficit.
Mr. Manske is in the process of compiling your 2nd quarter projections and
making adjustments for the savings we noted above. Once that is done, I will
communicate where we stand.
The process outlined in the July 12 memo for filling vacancies will remain in
effect until further notice.
I appreciate everyone's time and cooperation in attempting to find savings for
2007. To the extent we meet our goal, the 2008 budget will be easier.

Friday budget meeting
Wednesday, August 15, 2007 9:55:28 AM

George, you are scheduled to meet with the CEX on Friday to review the DTPW
2008 budget. Please be advised that we have not yet briefed the CEX on the
Airport or Transit, so the Friday meeting will not cover these items.
Therefore, if you were intending to bring staff from Airport and Transit to the
Friday meeting, this will not be necessary. Please communicate such with them.
We are in the process of scheduling time for DAS staff to meet with the CEX on
Airport and Transit. Once that is done you will be notified of a time you and
staff can meet with the CEX on these budgets.
Thanks.

        Recruitment





We need to put together a listing of the things we are going to do to work on
Recruitment and Staffing in this budget. I would like to put this into a sheet
for the MJS. We can give it to Greg on Friday morning.

CArcher_Email3015036

Overtime Reduction Initiatives
Recruitment to staff critical vacancies
 Create a centralized Recruitment Specialist position in Human Resources dedicated to
the development and implementation of a coordinated recruitment strategy to ensure
critical vacancies are filled in a timely fashion.
 Recruitment specialist will:
− Initially focus on recruiting and staffing of critical health care and public safety
vacancies to provide overtime relief at the House of Corrections, Jail and
Behavioral Health Division.
− Develop targeted recruitment strategies to maximize interest and applications
for Milwaukee County jobs.
− Provide leadership and assistance to departments in seeking applicants and
generating interest in employment with the County.
− Work with departments to identify barriers in the hiring process and develop
recommendations for streamlined hiring and more use of internet-based
recruitment and application processing.
 Provide $35,000 for increased recruitment advertising to supplement funds already
available in departments. Funds will be used for recruitment announcements including
buy not limited to print advertising, web-based recruitment and public service
announcements.

Management of Family Medical Leave (FMLA) Usage
 Create a centralized FMLA Specialist in the Human Resources division to:
− Provide training to department managers to ensure consistent implementation of
the Family Medical Leave Act requirements.
− Assess and manage countywide overtime issues by improved monitoring of the
use of family medical leave.
 Provide additional funding for specialized consulting/medical services related to FMLA
use and eligibility issues.

        Additional Security Steps






Ladies and Gentlemen:
After carefully considering various options to address current safety concerns
for patients and staff on the units, I have directed Jeff Doine to immediately
recruit, train and prepare for assignment as soon as possible up to six (6)
additional security personnel to assist in maintaining the safety of patients
and staff on units within BHD. I have also directed that the additional
security staff provide coverage for two full shifts (16 hours) each day. As
these additional staff are ready for assignment, existing security personnel
may be reassigned to make the most effective use of trained and experienced
security staff.
To ensure that these resources are deployed beneficially, I ask that the Acute
and the Rehab/Hilltop Executive Committees, at their very next meetings,
address the issue of where these additional resources might best be assigned
and in what priority order, then meet jointly to integrate their priorities
into a housewide plan, and work with Mr. Doine to implement the assignment plan
that reflects the best judgment of the group. I strongly suggest that Mr.
Doine be invited to participate in these meetings so that he can keep you
apprised of what is feasible and offer suggestions regarding various
approaches. I also ask that managers and supervisors solicit the opinions and
experiences of staff to assist in making the most informed decisions.
In addition, in early October, we will begin (re)training direct patient care
staff in effective techniques for working with people with challenging
behaviors, which should contribute further to reducing stress on staff and
patients .
The need for and the assignment of these additional staff across the house will
be continually evaluated. Ultimately, I am confident we will be able to reduce
these numbers as we are able to fill our own staff positions and complete the
challenging behaviors training.
I appreciate the hard work and caring attention you devote to meeting the needs
CArcher_Email3015039

of our patients and residents under extraordinarily stressful circumstances.
Thank you for everything you do for them.

CEX Department Meeting
Department of Transportation & Public Works
2008 Budget Issue Summary

August 17, 2008
12:30pm – 3:00pm

The following summary of 2008 budget issues reflect outstanding questions and items of concern as discussed in
the County Executive 2008 budget briefings with the Department of Administrative Services.

DTPW – DIRECTOR’S OFFICE
DTPW Fiscal Positions; (Sect. Major Dec. Item #1)
Issue: According to a preliminary review of fiscal positions, DAS believes there is room for consolidating fiscal
positions within DTPW. The best way to approach this is currently unclear.
DAS Recommendation: Increase vacancy and turnover in the Director’s Office in the amount of $50,000 to
reflect savings that could be realized by consolidating fiscal positions throughout DTPW.
County Executive Concerns: Follow-up for feedback from the Director of DTPW.

DTPW – ARCHITECTURE, ENIGEERING & ENVRIONMENTAL SERVICE (AE&E)
Countywide Facility Inventory Assessment Program; (Sect. Major Dec. Item #1)
Issue: The department did not include funding for the Facility Inventory Assessment program, this project work
has been budgeted in the amount of $150,000 in previous years.
DAS Recommendation: Approve request to unfund Facility Inventory and Assessment Program in the
amount of $150,000
County Executive Concerns: Interested in discussing the impact this would have on capital budget and
strategic planning.

Sanitary Sewer Capacity, Management, Operation & Maintenance Program (CMOM); (Sect. Major
Dec. Item #2)
Issue: The department did not include requested funding for CMOM related operating activity. The cost estimate
of this is $174,000. There is a compliance deadline of June 2009 for sanitary sewer maintenance work, stipulated
by the Department of Justice court order.
DAS Recommendation: Approve budget request as submitted and not provide funding unless the division
is able to substantiate whether full funding is required to meet the deadline.
County Executive Concerns: Interested in knowing whether the $174,000 is the estimated amount of
funding toward gaining CMOM compliance by 2009. If this is true, does it make sense to pro-rate funding
for this activity (e.g. two-thirds funded in 2008 and one-third funded in 2009).

CArcher_Email3015044

NR 216 – Storm water Discharge Permit Compliance Program;(Sect. Major Dec. Item #3)
Issue: The department did not request funding for WDNR required activity related to storm water maintenance.
The cost estimate of this, as provided by the Department, is approximately $1,500,000. The storm water permit
requires compliance with a number of conditions and provides a series of deadlines to meet these conditions. It is
believed that the scope of work associated with fulfilling these conditions can be minimized for cost savings. It is
believed that the timeline to perform this work can be negotiated with the WDNR
DAS Recommendation: Do not fund NR 216 compliance activities until there is better definition of the
program scope and further discussion with the WDNR concerning the timeline.
County Executive Concerns: Ask Department to clarify how the Lake Michigan Outfall capital projects
related to their cost estimate. A capital project in the amount of $1.2 million was listed among operating
activities in the Department’s communication to DAS.
State Historical Society (SHS): re-interment of pauper remains; (Sect. Major Dec. Item #4)
Issue: The SHS intents to move forward with a final disposition regarding the pauper remains found on the County
Grounds. If the SHS determines the County is required to re-inter these remains, as conservative cost estimate
could reach $2.5 million. Marquette University is pushing to be the indefinite caretaker of the remains, which
would cost the County nothing.
DAS Recommendation: Do not fund since it is not likely to be a 2008 issue. The CEX will call the SHS to
advocate for the Marquette proposal.
County Executive Concerns: What is the Division’s opinion concerning the likelihood that Marquette will be
successful in its attempt to keep the remains?

Various Position Requests - Billable to Capital Projects; (Sect. Major Dec. Item #5 & 7)
Architectural Designer
Issue: The AE&E Division requests to fund one position of Architectural Designer previously unfunded in
2007. The position charges a substantial amount of time to capital but reflects a staffing increase over
the previous year.
DAS Recommendation: Unfund position of Architectural Designer to maintain 2007 staffing levels in this
area.
County Executive Concerns: County Executive wants to discuss with Department. Why does the
Division require additional Architectural staffing over 2007? Should the funding for these positions be
reallocated to an emergency contractual service account to cover supplemental plowing service as
needed?
Engineer
Issue: The AE&E Division requests to fill one position of Engineer that has been a longstanding vacancy.
The position charges a substantial amount of time to capital but reflects a staffing increase over the
previous year.
DAS Recommendation: Unfund the position of Engineer to maintain 2007 staffing levels in this area.
County Executive Concerns: County Executive wants to discuss with Department. Why does the
Division require additional Architectural staffing over 2007? Should the funding for these positions be
reallocated to an emergency contractual service account to cover supplemental plowing service as
needed?

CArcher_Email3015045

Request for immediate fill of Executive Director of Environmental Services Position; (Sect. Major
Dec. Item #8)
Issue: The position functions as the Director of the Environmental & Energy Section within the AE&E
Division, a section of six total employees. The position is currently vacant and has a salary budgeted at
$108,388. The position is also non-capital (i.e. operating) in its function providing a tax levy cost for
filling.
DAS Recommendation: Either the position should be underfilled to a lower classification, the Division
allow for an unfunding of a lower Environmental position if filled internally, or both. Vacancy and turnover
should be increased by $40,000 to reflect this savings.
County Executive Concerns: Proposal to bottom-out the position at the entry-level of its pay scale and
perhaps change the job description to include work associated with the Green Print initiative. The new
proposed title could be Director of Environmental Services & Sustainability. Also, stipulate that the
position must be recruited from outside the County and held vacant until after the 2008 budget adoption.
Vacancy and Turnover would be budgeted to reflect an assumed vacancy period, in an amount
approximating $40,000.

HIGWAY MAINTENANCE DIVISION
Parks Plowing Activity; (Sect. Major Decision Item – First Listed)
Issue: The Highway Division continues to plow park roadways for the Parks Department, claiming the
activity costs the Division approximately $200,000 per year. The Highway Division receives
approximately $175,000 in GTA funding to cover these costs. The Division would like to transfer parks
plowing responsibility back to the Parks Department due to it being a lower priority for the Highway
Maintenance Division.
DAS recommendation: Transfer responsibility of all park roads plowing back to the Parks Department.
Resources also to be transferred Parks includes the annual GTA funding of approximately $175,000 and
the current type #106 plow truck.
County Executive Concerns: Does the Division believe it’s short plowing resources because GTA funding
is approximately $25,000 less than the $200K annual cost to plow parks? Ask the Division to clarify this.

Mowing of Highway Medians; (Sect. Major Dec. – Second Listed)
Issue: The Parks Department provides mowing and maintenance service for medians along County
Trunk Highways. Highway believes this is an inefficient use of resources and is willing to take this
responsibility back from Parks in exchange for returning plowing responsibilities to the Parks Department.
DAS Recommendation: Return mowing responsibilities of highway medians to the Highway Maintenance
Division. This change in responsibility will be absorbed by current Highway resources and will save the
Parks Department approximately $75,000 annually.
County Executive Concerns: Shouldn’t the $75,000 savings to Parks, associated with no longer providing
this work, plus the $175,000 GTA funding related to plowing activity provide a sufficient funding level for
Parks for this service.

CArcher_Email3015046

Highway Maintenance Work 3 – Funding 6.0 Positions; (Sect. Major Dec. Item #2)
Issue: The Division is proposing to fund 6.0 authorized Highway Maintenance positions above the 2007
level. These positions would be hired as temporary appointments to handle the peak period demand
during winter months. Revenue from state aid is available to fund some portion of work related to these
positions. To date, the department has not quantified the offset provided by state reimbursements on a
per employee basis. This information is necessary to determine realized tax levy savings if the positions
were to be unfunded.
DAS Recommendation: Deny Highway Division request to fund 6.0 Highway Maintenance positions
since they were unfunded in 2007.
County Executive Concerns: What is preventing us from maintaining staff levels at the 2007 level?
Should the funding for these positions be reallocated to an emergency contractual service account to
cover supplemental plowing service as needed?



Are there union issues preventing the County from contracting for this?
Require the Division to provide a state reimbursement estimate per employee to quantify tax levy
savings.

State Funding Budget Assumptions; (No Decision Sheet Reference)
Issue / County Executive Concern: Request from the Division a description of its State related budget
assumptions relative to General Transportation Aids and the State Highway Maintenance Program.
DAS Recommendation: None.

TRANSPORTATION SERVICES
Bridge Inspections; (No Decision Sheet Reference)
Issue / County Executive Concern: Has Transportation Services requested appropriate funding to cover
bridge inspection work in 2008?
DAS Recommendation: None.

FACILITIES MAINTENANCE
Performance Contracting; (No Decision Sheet Reference)
DAS Recommendation: In anticipation of approximately $200,000 in performance contract lease costs, it
is recommended that the Facilities electricity account be reduced by $200,000 and a new account within
the Facilities Management budget be funded for operating lease purposes in the amount of $200,000.
County Executive Concern: The County Executive would like to discuss this with the Department

CEX Department Meeting
Department on Aging
2008 Budget Issue Summary
August 17, 2008
3:30pm – 5:00pm
Care Management Organization (Fund 2)
1) CMO Surplus
Issue: DAS, the Department and Corporation Counsel are currently studying the legality and
advisability of capturing surplus generated by the CMO, after all reserve requirements are met.
DAS Recommendation: Take no action until a decision is made, then re-evaluate CMO
expenditures and initiatives should there be ability to capture surplus funds. Work with the
Department to identify alternative means to capture funds should a straight “sweep” not be
possible.
County Executive: Raise issue with Department for input.
2) Separate Fund 1 and CMO narratives.
Issue: The Department on Aging currently combines Fund 1 activities (Resource Center,
Elderly Nutrition, etc.) with the CMO (Fund 2) in a single narrative.
DAS Recommendation: Create a separate narrative for the Care Management Organization in
the 2008 Recommended Budget. While this will be a separate narrative, the CMO will still
report directly to the Director, Department on Aging in 2008.
County Executive: Raise issue with Department for input.
Department on Aging – Non-CMO (Fund 1)
1) Employee Parking
Issue: Parking costs for employees of the Department on Aging in the Reuss Federal Plaza
garage are included in the rent payment as agreed upon in the lease. In the time the Department
has occupied the space, employees have not paid for parking. (Decision Item #9)
Update: A review of the DC48 contract language notes that while the County must “eliminate
any charge for parking to employes using County-owned or controlled parking lots,” (Coggs
Center, City Campus, etc.) the next clause repeals this prohibition in County controlled lots that
are “available for use to the general public for which parking fees have been established.” The
facility currently used by Department on Aging employees fits this description.

CArcher_Email3015050

DAS Recommendation: Charge employees the $75 rate other downtown County employees
currently pay.
County Executive: Raise issue with Department for input.
2) Operating Capital for Senior Center Maintenance
Issue: The Department budgeted $300,000 in both 2006 and 2007 for basic maintenance of
Senior Centers that is not eligible for bonding. The Department requested an additional
$300,000 for 2008.
DAS Recommendation: Monitor the program to ensure that the work is up to date and all 2007
funds will be expended in 2007, therefore allowing 2008 funds to be spent in 2008.
County Executive: Raise issue with Department for status update.

        Re: Parking at Reuss Plaza





Mr.Eggers,
When DHHS - the landlords at Schlitz Park left the building,
We-- Aging- went out to bid for space.
The RFP was done by Economic Development and the lease was negotiated and
signed by Steve Agostini Then Budget Director
Part of the RFP was free parking for staff- visitors and clients.
At Schlitz Park all parking was free.
All of the returned bids included 200 free parking spaces. There were 5
bidders.
It was very clearly staed when this bid was presented to the Board that free
parking for staff visitors and clients was included.
As a matter of fact were this not the case The Schlitz Park bid would have been
the lowest..
The owner Mr. Grunau threatned to Sue us when the Fedral Building was awarded
the lease.
All employees- Commissioners Advisors etc were repeatedly assured that the
parking was a part of the lease
and was provided free of charge for 5 years.
The County Board was also told this during their approval of the lease.

The first time I or any member of my staff was alerted to the controversy
around this issue was when DAS- without my knowledge nor the knowledge of my
fiscal director or my budget administrator placed parking revenue in our 2007
budget.

We did not need the revenue and were aghast that this was done.

CArcher_Email3015055

No -one pays to park here - the clients who come for medicaid certificationcommissioners- committee menmbers older adults- no public with buisness with us
or economic support.
The lease terms were public- and free parking was a make or break part of that
deal. Mr Dennik did a fabulous job of negotiation
We will try to answer your other questions next week

        Parking at Reuss Plaza





Labor Relations has been requested to review the parking practices at Reuss
Plaza.
Is it correct that the County is paying for the parking of all employees?
If that is true, on what basis are the employees not having to pay for the
parking..collateral agreement; directive; memo to the union or employee?
How long have employees not paid for parking?
What is the cost of monthly parking at the Reuss Plaza?
Any information you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

We need to put together a listing of the things we are going to do to work on
Recruitment and Staffing in this budget. I would like to put this into a sheet
for the MJS. We can give it to Greg on Friday morning.

In addition to BHD's numbers, there were several people on the lists in
Juvenile Corrections Officer (JCO) positions within DCSD. As you know, the
Detention Center is a 24/7 operation as well, and most of the overtime has been
generated by more youth going through the system. DCSD provided the following
data related to vacancies for JCO’s:
62 funded positions
1 awaiting cert list to fill
4 vacant and funded
9 vacant and unfunded

Cindy, et al:
Thank you for the head's up.
The four BHD employees listed as having earned over $20,000 in OT last year,
along with the three (same names from last year minus one) on a pace to earn
the same amount this year, hold positions and work in the 24/7 areas of the
hospital where chronic vacancies, high FML and sick leave usage, not to mention
normal paid time off for holidays and vacation, or all of these factors, are at
work.
This is no surprise. We have talked publicly and openly about this condition
for months. Yes, it is "alarming." And unhealthy for the employees. And
unhealthy for the work environment. And frustrating to manage. And very
difficult to control. It should come as no surprise that employees of BHD are
well represented in the upper ranks of this list. I fervently wish it were not
so, but it is.
I will be happy to provide an explanation of how each of the three or four BHD
employees end up on this list, if anyone is interested. I know each one of
them. I've seen them here at 8:00 at night, and 3:15 in the morning, and on
weekends and holidays. While I certainly will not vouch for the legitimacy of
every single hour of OT worked by every single employee on this list, these
four employees are among our best, and I am gravely concerned that we will lose
them if we don't find a way out of this vortex. These employees are invaluable
to us; they are not, however, inexhaustible.
Unfortunately, I think it is reasonable to assume that the implicit message in
this story will be, "Here's yet another example of shiftless county bureaucrats
scamming the system and fleecing the taxpayers." I hope I am wrong about this;
I fear I am right. Sadly, what these OT numbers don't show are the
undocumented hundreds of hours of time well in excess of 40 hours a week put in
by administrators here (and elsewhere) who don't get a dime of OT pay but
contribute these additional hours because they are responsible and
conscientious public stewards.
But I am preaching to the choir.
CArcher_Email3015062

Anyway, we currently have the following vacancies: 13 RN 1 FTEs; 4 RN 2s; 8
CNAs; and 1 LPN. These numbers are slightly higher than they were three weeks
ago. They do not include the recently created positions in these
classifications.
If you have any other questions, please let me know.

        MJS request for overtime payments--HEADS UP





Today we fulfilled an open records request for MJS regarding total overtime
CArcher_Email3015063

payments by employee for 2006 and year to date OT payments by employee for
2007. Some of the statistics are alarming in terms of amounts. I have created
two spreadsheets that show the top OT earners for each year. I cut off the
2006 sheet to include only those that earned more than $20K in 2006 and more
than $10K in 2007 (reflecting half year has passed). The sheets are sorted by
amount. Pay particular attention to the columns highlighted at the top.
Please note, the OT pay is in addition to the base pay. This may be a news
story in the next day or so.

for months. Yes, it is "alarming." And unhealthy for the employees. And
unhealthy for the work environment. And frustrating to manage. And very
difficult to control. It should come as no surprise that employees of BHD are
well represented in the upper ranks of this list. I fervently wish it were not
so, but it is.

CArcher_Email3015065

I will be happy to provide an explanation of how each of the three or four BHD
employees end up on this list, if anyone is interested. I know each one of
them. I've seen them here at 8:00 at night, and 3:15 in the morning, and on
weekends and holidays. While I certainly will not vouch for the legitimacy of
every single hour of OT worked by every single employee on this list, these
four employees are among our best, and I am gravely concerned that we will lose
them if we don't find a way out of this vortex. These employees are invaluable
to us; they are not, however, inexhaustible.
Unfortunately, I think it is reasonable to assume that the implicit message in
this story will be, "Here's yet another example of shiftless county bureaucrats
scamming the system and fleecing the taxpayers." I hope I am wrong about this;
I fear I am right. Sadly, what these OT numbers don't show are the
undocumented hundreds of hours of time well in excess of 40 hours a week put in
by administrators here (and elsewhere) who don't get a dime of OT pay but
contribute these additional hours because they are responsible and
conscientious public stewards.
But I am preaching to the choir.
Anyway, we currently have the following vacancies: 13 RN 1 FTEs; 4 RN 2s; 8
CNAs; and 1 LPN. These numbers are slightly higher than they were three weeks
ago. They do not include the recently created positions in these
classifications.
If you have any other questions, please let me know.

        MJS request for overtime payments--HEADS UP





Today we fulfilled an open records request for MJS regarding total overtime
payments by employee for 2006 and year to date OT payments by employee for
2007. Some of the statistics are alarming in terms of amounts. I have created
two spreadsheets that show the top OT earners for each year. I cut off the
2006 sheet to include only those that earned more than $20K in 2006 and more
than $10K in 2007 (reflecting half year has passed). The sheets are sorted by
amount. Pay particular attention to the columns highlighted at the top.
Please note, the OT pay is in addition to the base pay. This may be a news
story in the next day or so.

As of 8/1/07, the HOC has 37 vacant CO 1 positions; 3 vacant CO 1 Bilingual
positions; 3 vacant CO 2 positions and 2 CO Lieutenant positions.
The CO 2 and the CO Lieutenant positions are promotional positions that would
result in additional vacant CO 1 positions if filled.
Historically, the HOC has held 6 CO 1 positions vacant for every dormitory that
is closed. The budget is based on 7 dormitories closed which would be 42
vacant CO 1 positions. However, the actual number of dormitories that were
closed in the first quarter of 2007 averaged between 5 and 6 dorms closed which
would be in balance with 30 to 36 vacant CO 1 positions. During the second
quarter of 2007, the HOC averaged between 2 and 3 dormitories closed allowing
for only 12 to 18 CO 1 position vacancies. Today, there is only one dorm
closed.
The HOC hired 7 CO 1's in the first quarter of 2007 and 13 CO 1's in June
2007. I do not know how many CO 1 positions left the HOC during the year.

CArcher_Email3015068

Vacant CO 1 positions is not the only reason for the high overtime
expenditures. There has been an increase in the number of existing Correction
Officers not coming to work either by use of sick allowance, family medical
leave are simply being absent without pay. You can plan for known vacancies
when scheduling staff to minimize overtime, but when a CO that is scheduled to
work calls in sick or simply does not come to work, another CO has to work
overtime to staff the post.

Please see the below.
Since vacancy figures change everyday, I am asking that Ron provide the CEX
with the number of vacant CO positions since these are the primary overtime
generators. Corey and Jim, please provide the CEX the number of vacant health
care positions by title for BHD. We all need to be able to respond to this.
It is important to note that these are 24X7 operations and that I assume you
have made heroic efforts to recruit to fill vacancies. Please give your input
to the CEX on our response.
I request that you copy me on your responses.
Thanks!

Mr.Eggers,
When DHHS - the landlords at Schlitz Park left the building,
We-- Aging- went out to bid for space.
The RFP was done by Economic Development and the lease was negotiated and
signed by Steve Agostini Then Budget Director
CArcher_Email3015085

Part of the RFP was free parking for staff- visitors and clients.
At Schlitz Park all parking was free.
All of the returned bids included 200 free parking spaces. There were 5
bidders.
It was very clearly staed when this bid was presented to the Board that free
parking for staff visitors and clients was included.
As a matter of fact were this not the case The Schlitz Park bid would have been
the lowest..
The owner Mr. Grunau threatned to Sue us when the Fedral Building was awarded
the lease.
All employees- Commissioners Advisors etc were repeatedly assured that the
parking was a part of the lease
and was provided free of charge for 5 years.
The County Board was also told this during their approval of the lease.

The first time I or any member of my staff was alerted to the controversy
around this issue was when DAS- without my knowledge nor the knowledge of my
fiscal director or my budget administrator placed parking revenue in our 2007
budget.

We did not need the revenue and were aghast that this was done.
No -one pays to park here - the clients who come for medicaid certificationcommissioners- committee menmbers older adults- no public with buisness with us
or economic support.
The lease terms were public- and free parking was a make or break part of that
deal. Mr Dennik did a fabulous job of negotiation
We will try to answer your other questions next week

Labor Relations has been requested to review the parking practices at Reuss
Plaza.
Is it correct that the County is paying for the parking of all employees?
If that is true, on what basis are the employees not having to pay for the
parking..collateral agreement; directive; memo to the union or employee?
How long have employees not paid for parking?
What is the cost of monthly parking at the Reuss Plaza?
Any information you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

Dear Ms. Archer,
I am interested in a position as a fiscal and management analyst for Milwaukee
County. As a former county employee, I understand the value of objective
analysis and the sensitivity that accompanies budgetary work in a political
environment. I also eagerly anticipate tangible application of my academic
training.

My graduate concentration in economic development examined the determinants of
wealth, the policies that promote or hinder the expansion of it, and the
interrelationship of the two, while my studies of industrial organization
emphasized game theory and government regulation. In addition, I have a
significant legal background, which has obvious relevance to the analysis of
legislative issues before the department, and I am poised to take the Chartered
Financial Analyst test on December 12, 2007.

Further, my finance and government work experience familiarized me with the
budget process and public finance. As a former financial advisor, I have
experience running asset allocation models and analyzing portfolio risk, and
combined with my supplemental economic skills in mathematical modeling and
econometrics, I believe I can make a valuable contribution to the department.

I understand that a fiscal and management analyst must be an individual of
academic distinction and initiative. I also understand that integrity and
adherence to high ethical and moral standards of conduct is not only relevant
to my personal reputation, but also the reputation and credibility of the
department as a whole.

I welcome as much responsibility as my experience and capabilities responsibly
permit.

Thank you for your consideration.

        Reporter request: 2008 county budget request






Hi Cynthia,
I’m a reporter with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel; I cover non-profits. I am
working on a possible story about the potential impact of the 2008 county
budget requests on non-profits, and I wanted to talk to you about how likely it
is that these proposed cuts would be restored by Scott Walker or the county
board.
I’m particularly interested in figuring out the likelihood of the following
proposed cuts:
Economic Support Division
211 Impact: $433,042
Disability Services Division
Advocacy for disabled families – (ARC Milwaukee) $176,043
Behavioral Health Division
Adult community mental health providers – $750,000
AIDS Resource Center/Fighting Back – $302,016

        paratransit





Dan and I were talking and I was looking at the CMO's levy contribution instead
of its payment to paratransit so this change nets $825,000 on the aging side
instead of the $470,000 I originally thought. So better but doesn't change the
DHHS number. We should talk about if $7 is the correct amount to charge them.

Museum Payment

The Museum received an advance on their July quarterly payment, which they
received May 29. Will they also be getting an advance on their scheduled Oct
payment of $831,814.25 (which they normally would get on Oct. 1)? If so,
please advise as I'll need to process the request early. Thanks.

Follow up from todays budget meeting with CEX
Thursday, August 23, 2007 7:29:08 PM

As we discussed today, there seems to be a mutual interest in transferring the
mowing of medians from Parks to the Highway Maintenance division and the
plowing of park roads from highway maintenance to the parks department. The
figures we have seen thus far indicate that Parks incurs about $75,000 per year
in cost related to the mowing and highways incurs about $200,000 per year,
offset by $175,000 in GTA funding, for plowing.
The proposal that is on the table would transfer mowing to highways and the
cost would be absorbed by highways therefore leaving the $75K in savings in the
Parks budget to reallocate towards plowing. The plowing would go to Parks
along with the $175,000 in GTA funding. This gives Parks a net increase of
$250,000 (i.e., the $75 k in savings plus the $175K in GTA revenue). I also
recall that highway would give Parks a truck for plowing.
I need both department's to reach agreement on this issue no later than the end
of next week for inclusion in the 2008 budget. I encourage you both to not
rehash old history regarding what was transferred or not transferred in the
past, but rather focus on what is needed to get the job done. This is an issue
that has been a trouble spot for both departments and the CEX is willing to
address it in the 2008 budget but only if the two departments can reach
agreement.
Thanks.

OUTSTANDING ISSUES
DEPARTMENT ON AGING
1. Use of CMO surplus -- $1.0 million in 2007; $300,000 in 2008 – how can we
capture any or all of the $1.3 million
2. Paratransit funding – details with BHD, Disablity Services and CMO need to be
resolved including what to charge ($7 vs $11). How will these charges be
reflected in the budget and where will the revenue go (bottom line, Transit?) Will
this require an Ordiance change or Resolution?
3. Add-back list – Employee Parking
4. Cut List – Cut additional $100,000 for Senior Center Maintenance that the CEX
restored; Cut new staff for CMO (assuming we get the surplus)
CEX Office
1. CEX said don’t take salary savings re to Chief of Staff
2. CEX salary should be budgeted at full amount
AUDIT
1. CEX did not want to unfund audit supervisor (item #1); increase V&T instead.
CHILD SUPPORT
2. Add two attorneys to make Courts chargeback an allowable cost.
3. Unfund Deputy (did he say reduce V&T for this?)
CORP COUNSEL
1. CEX: Add back funds for copier.
2. Add back list – Travel for Domina ($1,500)
COUNTY BOARD
1. CEX no to #5
2. Transfer of IGR staff should be tied to Strategic Planning Initiative – Does this
require ordiance change or resolution??
3. CEX no to #7 and #8
COUNTY CLERK
1. Need to check with Domina to make sure Deputy County Clerk not required in
statutes. Also, does this require Ordiance change?
2. CEX said no to abolish of 2 positions (#2 minor items)

Here is a recap of what happened w/the IC report:
VK sent us their original comments.
I wrote responses - some of which requested removal of the comment and were
meant only for VK - not for the final document.
VK re-wrote some of their comments, left our responses as is and sent to Jerry
Heer directly. DAS did not see VK's revisions until Jerry forwarded the pdf
document to Scott. Some of the responses need to be revised due to VK's
changes.
You need to approve the responses and they need to go to Jerry to be put in the
final document.
Sorry if it's confusing - it's not how I had envisioned it happening either.

        RE: County Pauper Cemetery Remains





Hi Greg
Thanks very much for the note. I am encouraged. I met with several MU officers
at the end of the past week. They are considering submitting a proposal for
permanent curation and they were inclined favorably. I will let you know as
soon as I hear anything.
Thanks again
Norm

Norm:
I received a phone call on Thursday 8/23/07 and a follow up call today from
Michael E. Stevens, State Historical Society regarding a phone call, dated
8/23/07, from County Executive Scott Walker supporting Marquette
University's request as an interested party to assume curatorship over the
County Grounds Pauper Cemetery human remains accidentally excavated in
1991. Mr. Stevens wanted to clarify and confirm the intent of the phone
call from the County executive to the Director of SHS.
CArcher_Email3015155

I also inquired as to the status of Milwaukee County as an "interested
party" in the human remains disposition process. Mr. Stevens indicated
that Milwaukee County is not an "interested party" at this time. Mr.
Steven's defines "interested party" as an entity requesting custody of the
remains. I don't think Milwaukee County wants to be the custodian of the
remains so we most likely do not want to apply to be an "interested party".
Mr. Stevens also indicated that the County does have the right to have
input on the decision of final remains disposition. Therefore the County
Executive's phone call and opinions shared will be taken into consideration
by the SHS.
Unfortunately, there is a difference of opinion on whether Marquette
University is interested as an organization in assuming custody or
curatorship. Mr. Stevens said that when UWM recently applied for
curatorship of the remains, SHS contacted MU officials to allow MU
opportunity to apply also. Mr. Stevens said that Mr. Erik Thelen, Director
of Applied Research at MU indicated to the SHS that MU was not interested.
Your recent comments in our meeting on 8/7/07 led us to believe that MU was
interested in curatorship as an organization.
Please clarify this issue asap so we can move forward.

    Subject: Overtime Money
Nana,
MCDA is trying to assist BHD with converting their Community Support Program
(CSP) clients to Family Care to save them some money. We have already saved
them about $80,000 on 2 recent enrollments from another of their programs.
There are approximately 93 CSP clients.
In a perfect world, I would like to do Functional Screens and process all these
people in about 30 days.   To do that amount of extra work in that timeframe, I
would need $12,000 to $15,000 in overtime money.   And if it matters, we can
Time Report this and capture MA reimbursement, which reduces this cost somewhat.
CArcher_Email3015157

So, could we possibly absorb this cost?   I need to know ASAP.
If not, I will try to absorb these cases into the regular workflow until the
end of the year.   But obviously it will take much longer.
Thank you
chet

Stephanie, I will look into this but I think the reason the computers are not
frozen is because those are CMO purchases and will not impact the County's
bottom line. I will check.

Pam,
Thank you for calling me back. Just to follow up on our conversation that you
and Dan are looking into what happened with MCDA frozen capital accounts. You
and I reviewed the 7/27/07 justification for spending funds memo to Dan and
noted the following:
Fund 01: Of the $433,222 balance, MCDA is making $15,000 available for County
use in 2007 towards the County's bottom line. The Department is requesting

CArcher_Email3015159

that the remaining balance of $418,222 that is already committed should be
preserved (unfreeze) for use in 2007. This amount consist of $310,722
dedicated to the Senior Centers major maintenance; $82,500 allocated to
implement a Barcoding System to meet the Old Americans reporting requirement;
and $25,000 committed to office furniture and reconfiguration.
Fund 02: According to Scott's report the entire CMO computer reserve balance
of $608,590 has been unfrozen. However, MCDA-CMO is making available $549,490
for County use in 2007 with the understanding that the funds will be restored
to the CMO in 2008 as suggested in our 7/27/2007 justification memo to Dan.
The Department is requesting that only $59,100 for the servers purchased but
not yet paid for remain unfrozen.
We would appreciate if the changes are done in time to reflect in MCDA's August
financials. Please let me know if you have further questions. Thank you

The Family Care CMO is responsible for all services in the benefit package for
the entire period of Family Care enrollment. The Family Care benefit includes
residential services provided in all alternative residential settings such as
CBRFs and Adult Family Homes. The family care benfit also includes mental
health services not provided by a physician and excluding inpatient
hospitalization. This includes, by contract with the state and by our federal
waiver, CSP services.
I need to know the enrollment dates for each of the Family Care members
receiving mental halth services as identified below. The CMO is required to pay
for those services from enrollment date forward and we will make arrangements
CArcher_Email3015165

with the providers and BHD to assure that we fulfill this obligation.
The Family Care, care manager for reach member should have assessed whether
these members needed the residential or CSP services they were receiving prior
to enrollemnt. If the services are necessary to acheive the member's family
care outcomes, the member-centered plan should include these services.Those
care a managers also understand that we have a process for authorizing services
including a procedrue for authorizing out-of-network providers during the
initial assesssment process. Next week when I determine the care managers
assigned to each of the identified individuals, I will contact them to arrange
for entry of authorizations for the covered services. I would also like BHD to
please identify a contact person within your agency with whom I can discuss the
CMO billing process. Once the authorizations are entered and the bills are
generated, we will work with our TPA to assure prompt payment for prior
services.
As we look ahead, the care management team, including the member, will have to
determine whether continuation of the current services is necessary to acheive
the member's family care outcomes. In the event that the team and the member
believe determine such services are necessary, the team and member will also
need to determine whether there are providers within the network that can
provide those services or whether there are compelling reasons to remain with
the existing provider. in all instances, one important consideration by the
team will be continuity of care or a smooth transition should there be any
change in providers.

Subject: BHD clients over 60
Gentlemen
In our initial pass through the list of CBRF residents, we have found that of
the 13 individuals on the list, 3 have already been screened and all 3 were
Family Care eligible.
One person enrolled in Family Care 7/23/07; one is set to enroll 8/30/07 (with
no cost share) and one individual was screened, found eligible but declined
enrollment because she was told that if she enrolled, she would have to move
from her group home.
CArcher_Email3015166

Three individuals will be screened today and remaining 7 individuals should be
able to be done next week.
Of those 95 persons receiving CSP services, the Resource Center has already
found two individuals who are currently enrolled in Family Care. The CMO
contract manager will assign staff to begin working on a mechanism to purchase
CSP services for those individuals ASAP.
For the remaining CSP participants, the Resource Center will need names,
addresses and phone numbers of the member as well as contact information for
CSP staff.
The procedure for completing the screens will be that the Resource Center
worker will contact the CSP and set up an appointment with the client. The
Resource Center staff are requesting that CSP staff be present for the screen
to help explain the process to the client.
I am taking the liberty of laying out the process on behalf of the Resource
Center Manager as he is still working on clearing the remaining names.

I suggest a pilot through the end of the year. Our costs are covered this year
and I think we could handle the additional workload. Next year is a
problem.... they only have $53,000 (total) for both a Supervising Atty and a
part time attorney. Our costs exceed that amount, plus we will be juggling to
cover calendars.

Rob and Cindy, any thoughts. I do not see a problem with this as long as the
funding is covered. Racine needs an atty
now and we would not be able to get through board until Sept so one thought is
a pilot project for the rest of the year.

I had lunch with Jon Lehman & Pat Seilaff from Racine. They need a contract
attorney 20 hours per week and a supervising attorney 20 hours per week, and do
not have a lot of funds.
These are the options:
They (Racine) could
*   contract directly with our attorneys that will be laid-off.
*   contract with anyone to perform the tasks.
*   contract with Milwaukee for both positions at a flat fee.
*   contract with Milwaukee for attorney at an hourly, plus travel rate - as
needed.
* contract for the attorney privately - preferably with one of our laid of
employees and contract with Milwaukee for the Supervising attorney.
None of these options offers a true profit for our department. However, a few
could off-set some costs - but will expand the workload.
I did speak with Vanessa from DOA - she has concerns, but wanted me to pass the
information along. This is/was a long range goal for the office.
Could you pass this along to the County Executive and let me know if he wants
me to proceed with negotiating a price?
Thanks

I just spoke to Minister Riley - he would like you to call him about the King
Center - he is willing to help fund keeping the Center open through a local
organization that would take over the running of the center by leasing it.
Please let me know if you need any additional information.

Re: Fw: 2007 Account Freeze update
Tuesday, August 28, 2007 11:27:05 AM

As I suspected, the computer funds were CMO dollars and would not help the
bottom line. Can you give me a week or so to finish analysis of where we are
in 2007 and then I will revisit the maintenance funds? Will this work?

Pam,
Thank you for calling me back. Just to follow up on our conversation that you
and Dan are looking into what happened with MCDA frozen capital accounts. You
and I reviewed the 7/27/07 justification for spending funds memo to Dan and
noted the following:
Fund 01: Of the $433,222 balance, MCDA is making $15,000 available for County
use in 2007 towards the County's bottom line. The Department is requesting

CArcher_Email3015174

that the remaining balance of $418,222 that is already committed should be
preserved (unfreeze) for use in 2007. This amount consist of $310,722
dedicated to the Senior Centers major maintenance; $82,500 allocated to
implement a Barcoding System to meet the Old Americans reporting requirement;
and $25,000 committed to office furniture and reconfiguration.
Fund 02: According to Scott's report the entire CMO computer reserve balance
of $608,590 has been unfrozen. However, MCDA-CMO is making available $549,490
for County use in 2007 with the understanding that the funds will be restored
to the CMO in 2008 as suggested in our 7/27/2007 justification memo to Dan.
The Department is requesting that only $59,100 for the servers purchased but
not yet paid for remain unfrozen.
We would appreciate if the changes are done in time to reflect in MCDA's August
financials. Please let me know if you have further questions. Thank you

Jack,
Request for Maintenance and Service #104031 states that the funding for this
project will come from Org. # 3410, Account # 6080.
We would not have made the request for the project unless we have the funds.
We have more than enough funds in this account to cover the costs of this
project.
I hope that this clears up any confusion that might exist about our funding of
the project.
I expect to proceed as soon as possible!

John:
Facilities Management would like to move forward with your project request, but
it would require you to have funding to do so. The last time the County-wide
Surplus/Deficit projections came out the Reg. of Deeds Department was running a
fairly large deficit.
With this stated, at this time Facilities Management is unable to process your
request until we are told the money can be secured without creating a deficit.
Should you have questions please give me a call.

REVENUES
Wednesday, August 29, 2007 11:42:41 AM
High

We are getting further and further away from being able to fill our remaining
hole. I need to ask each of you to go back to your budgets and look at the
revenue assumptions departments made and look at historical revenue trends to
see if we can eek out more revenues. I am not asking you to arbitrarily
inflate revenues, but I am asking that you be somewhat aggressive in looking to
see if we have maximized our revenue streams. I need you to do this ASAP and
get me your results by in the morning. Thanks.

2008 authorized positions
Wednesday, August 29, 2007 11:55:39 AM
High

I am not sure where we are at in reconciling authorized positions in Brass with
the HR system, but my understanding is that one source of the discrepancy may
be due to the fact that Brass includes only funded positions. I had asked when
we prepared briefing documents that the FTE counts on the briefing documents
reflect total authorized positions regardless if funded or not. If your
documents do not reflect this, please correct them.
Moving forward, the 2008 budget should reflect FTE counts that are for
authorized positions regardless if the positions are funded or not. This will
help the BRASS system stay in line with the HR system and is a better
representation of workforce resources authorized.
If you don't understand the direction we are moving, please talk to Molly or I.
Thanks.

Ordinance changes/resolutions
Wednesday, August 29, 2007 12:18:48 PM

We need to compile a list of any budget actions that will require ordinance
changes or that are contrary to existing Board resolutions. It is my
understanding that the budget itself is a resolution so we do not need to draft
resolutions to replace existing resolutions but if we are doing anything that
requires an ordinance change we will need to submit redrafted ordinances to the
Board.
I am not concerned about the actual drafting of ordinances at this point, I am
primarily concerned about getting a complete list. I want the list to include
1) required ordinance changes; 2) policy changes are in conflict or not
consistent with Board resolutions currently in effect. Item # 2 is important
since we will need to clearly articulate the change in policy in our narratives
(which in effect becomes the new resolution).
Please go through your budgets and prepare a list for your departments and
forward those to Kat. If in doubt, include it for now. The goal is to make
sure nothing is falling off the table.
Examples that come to mind-        Use of sales tax revenue for general operating purposes
        Park fee changes
        New golf course improvement fee
        Discontinue use of land sales money for supportive housing
        Citation authority for Parks patrol
        Possible ordinance change for crimes appropriate for electronic
monitoring
        Abolish UW Extension?
        Authorize Parks Director to negotiate with operators of Hales Corner
Pool and allow operator to set fees mutually agreeable.
Please give this serious thought and quickly review the ordinances related to
your departments to identify changes we may not be currently aware of. If you
are not sure about what should be an ordinance vs resolution (via the budget
document), put it on the list and we can sort it out later.

As I go through the documents, I will try to identify items as well. Please
get your items to Kat by close of Thursday.
Thanks.

Wednesday, August 29, 2007 12:52:56 PM

Rob, I have frozen the funds for remodel of the ROD lobby as noted below. I
understand this is an elected official and wanted to give you a heads up in the
event you do not agree. The freeze with ROD has less to do with the 2007
freezes I have in place county-wide and more to do with their projected revenue
deficit. Keeping both things in mind, unless you tell me differently I intend
to tell Jack there is insufficient funding to proceed with this.

I called Keegan and told him we are not doing the position request they
submitted for this Board cycle since it should be considered in the context of
the 2008 budget and that the CEX office would likely call to ask that it be
withdrawn. He argued and I talked him down and maintained my position. All I
need from you is follow up to Sue directing her to officially withdraw it since
it should be considered in the context of the 2008 budget. Thanks.

fine and forfeiture revenue
Wednesday, August 29, 2007 2:46:24 PM

I spoke to Inspector Carr and he said the Sheriff's department would be
vehemently opposed to transferring the fine and forfeiture revenue to the
Courts. I did receive a letter from the Chief Justice this morning laying out
her statutory rationale. I have asked Domina to weigh in, but my gut feeling
is it is not worth the fight and we maintain current law (practice).

    Subject: Fw: BHD clients over 60
As an update, there were 13 individuals who were identified as over age 60 and
residing in CBRFS through BHD. 2 of those individuals are currently enrolled
in Family Care and 1 is set to enroll next month.
Of the remaining 10, while the screening process is not completed, it looks as
if 9 individuals are both functionally and financially eligible for Family
Care.
According to the Resource Center Manager, of the 94 Clients in CSP over age 60:
44 are known to MCDA in some fashion.
3 are already enrolled in Family Care
CArcher_Email3015198

Out of 44 known to MCDA:
· 15 were functionally ineligible at screening (some 2 years ago or more; some
in the last 6 months)
· 1 enrolled in Pace/Partnership
· 3 enrolled in Family Care
· 7 were functionally & financially eligible and declined FC
· 9 refused Functional screens and have possible eligibility
· 4 are financially ineligible due to significant personal assets
· 5 exist in the database as guardianships or with no information
The BHD current rough estimate of costs for services is, on average, $9000/year
for CSP clients and $4000/month for CBRF residents.
Jim Hennen will contact care managers for those persons already enrolled in
Family Care to arrange for entry of authorizations for the covered services. He
also would also like BHD to please identify a contact person within your agency
with whom he can discuss the CMO billing process. Once the authorizations are
entered and the bills are generated, the CMO will work with our TPA to assure
prompt payment for prior services.
The Resource Center will continue to work with BHD staff to screen the CSP
recipients as soon as we have contact information for the clients and/or their
POAs/legal guardians.
As the enrollment process continues, it will be important for Resource Center
staff to know whether clients will continue to receive services from BHD if
they are eligible for Family Care but opt not to enroll. This is information
that they need to present to members as part of their options counseling.

Gentlemen
In our initial pass through the list of CBRF residents, we have found that of
the 13 individuals on the list, 3 have already been screened and all 3 were
Family Care eligible.
One person enrolled in Family Care 7/23/07; one is set to enroll 8/30/07 (with
no cost share) and one individual was screened, found eligible but declined
enrollment because she was told that if she enrolled, she would have to move
from her group home.
Three individuals will be screened today and remaining 7 individuals should be
able to be done next week.
Of those 95 persons receiving CSP services, the Resource Center has already
found two individuals who are currently enrolled in Family Care. The CMO
contract manager will assign staff to begin working on a mechanism to purchase
CSP services for those individuals ASAP.
For the remaining CSP participants, the Resource Center will need names,
addresses and phone numbers of the member as well as contact information for
CSP staff.
The procedure for completing the screens will be that the Resource Center
worker will contact the CSP and set up an appointment with the client. The
Resource Center staff are requesting that CSP staff be present for the screen
to help explain the process to the client.
I am taking the liberty of laying out the process on behalf of the Resource
Center Manager as he is still working on clearing the remaining names.

We had decided to make this a FAMA position. The decision is now to make it a
Captial Finance and Planning Analyst position. You can pay it at the same rate
as FAMA. We may also want to consider changing Jame's title to the same at the
senior level but at the same pay.

Re: Retroactive Para-Transit Fare

My understanding is that this will increase Transit revenues by roughly $800k
in 2007. Chad and Dan, please be sure Manske is aware of this ASAP since he is
working on the 2007 projections for the Board. Also, Transit needs to be aware
of this and our expectation that this will reduce their projected deficit by
the amount of additional revenue provided by this change.

Dan, you may also want to let DHSS Disability know we are proceeding this way.
Even though we are not including them in the retro for 2007, it will send a
clear message that we are indeed proceeding this way for 2008 and give them
time to adjust to the idea and hopefully remove any of their reluctance.

Thanks.

We already upped their fee revenue by taking the application fee from $45 to
$50. So doing this would mean a net increase of $200,000 over FY07. Since
this is based on actuals, I don't think this is a problem. Otherwise,
everything seems fine. If Cindy is okay with this, I'll put it in tonight,
unless you think the Exec needs to be consulted first.

Rob,
I have just been informed by Jim Singer of Flight for Life that they will no
longer need the services of our communication base. They have obviously known
this for sometime but did not share with any of our team that they are
expanding their business and need to establish their own communication base
department. Unfortunately this is a $200,000 dollar revenue loss for County
Health Programs. Ken, Janet and I have put together budget adjustments to
address the shortfall for your approval. I have reviewed this plan with Corey.

CArcher_Email3015213

7273-3559 [$198,000] reduction in 2008 projected revenue. This would the
budgeted revenue from $230,000 to $32,000.
7251-3719 increase $100,000 from $900,000 to $1 M based on YTD July 07 actual
for GAMP Application Fee.
7251-4960 increase $60,000 from $440,000 to $500,000 based on YTD July 07
actual subrogation revenue.
7273 abolish half-time EMS communicator 64410 equaling a savings of $38,410
taking the FTE from 7.5 to 7 FTE Communicators.
The tax levy in GAMP will go from $6, 964,950 to $6, 804,950 so we still meet
the $6.8M IGT.
I am sorry, I had no clue they were going to do this. This is truly a bad day.

I think to do it at the same time I sign paper timesheets but we don't seem to
have regualr day for that. Let's try to get this on a regular schedule (paper

Subject: Your Ceridian Entry
Hi Cindy, Please do your own Ceridian entry ASAP and sign your timecard so I
can ask Rob to approve it. You used 8 hours vacation on Mon Aug 20, which
need keying. Also, approvals for your employees need to be done by Noon on
Wednesday . All are complete, except Scott's (he's out but I'll ask Connie to
remind him to take care of it). I'll leave the paper copies with Kat (these
also need your signature). Thanks.

Don't you think the below response is somewhat arrogant given how bad we are
getting screwed? You would think they would be doing all they could do to help
counties deal with this instead of basically telling us they don't have time.

Kathy,
It was good to talk with you yesterday concerning your question about
whether the Division is able to provide counties with monthly counts of
the billable days of service while the budget process is still underway.
I am sending this email to summarize the conversation we had on this
topic with Wes Ray, the Division's management and budget director.
Wes confirmed the Division's information system requires us to complete
the July billing process before we can calculate the August days of
service. Completing the July bills without the correct daily rates will
require the use of Division staff time to enter more than 1400 data
corrections once the daily rates are known. We all agreed this would
not be a judicious use of DJC staff resources.
Again, thank you for your time on this issue and for your understanding
of the burden this would place on the Division and its limited staff
resources. The Division looks forward to the completion of the budget
process so we have all the necessary information to continue our work
with the counties and the youth under our care and supervision.

Subject: Child Care Days for JCI and CCI Placements
Importance: High

Hi Silvia:
I am wondering if you can help us out. as we talked a few weeks ago
when we were both in Rock County, we are interested in getting our child
care days for August and perhaps, beyond, despite the fact that a state
budget has not passed. When we talked you seemed to indicate that this
was not a problem.
Mr. Brotz, who's copied on this is the Budget manager for DHHS. He's
had some follow-up discussion with Wes Ray who's inidicated that the
August numbers cannot be released becuase a bill for July has not been
generated.
and since I wasn't a part of that discussion, I may not fully understand
what was discussed. I am hoping that someone at DJC can get us the
August
numbers --and possibly September's--as you had indicated to me.
Wendy Darnell of your staff has been great over the years assisting us
even
before the bills are mailed at this time of year. In August and
September, we are all struggling to put a budget together with as much
accurate information as possible, so clearly actual days of care are
critical.
I've included Mr. Henken and Ms. Archer on this email who should be
copied on your response. They are responsible for the entire county
budget and correctional costs are a big part of any projection for the
next year's budget.
As you know, I am truly a short-timer now. I want to thank you again
for your cooperation and assistance.
Kathy Malone

Aging's contract with them came up at our meeting, and they seem to be getting
a great deal for the services 211 provides. If I remember correctly, Aging is
paying them around $25,000 per year. I assumed they looked into maximizing
Family Care dollars for these services, but that might not be the case.

Steve Johnson sent me a letter about 211 and mentioned that he and some others
met with Corey on August 3. In his letter, he raised two interesting points:
First, he asked that the cut be reduced from $480,000 to $280,000 to allow them
to adjust infrastructure.
Second, he mentioned that they handle overnight and weekend support for Aging.
Is there anyway to get FamilyCare funding for a part of this? It sounds like
$200,000 would be good for them.

Fw: Auditor Comment re: Financial Projections
Friday, August 31, 2007 6:53:01 AM

The below relates to VKs comment in the audit about our revenue projections
being conservative. Natalie called VK out on this and asked them if they were
prepared to get into issuing opinions on the accuracy of our revenue
projections and assume the liability that comes along with that. Clearly VK
was not. So they changed the wording to indicate merely that revenue
projections were decentralized and sometimes not timely. The point is this a
budget matter and not a financial audit issue. When the point remained in the
document, I asked Natalie to call VK back and get specific instances
(documentation) on their audit findings related to this point. As I suspected,
there were none. This is not an appropriate comment for audit and VK pretty
much admitted as much and said they put it in to "appease" Rich. See below.

Cindy I talked to Steve Henke at VK regarding the comment on the timeliness of
department financial projections. The source of the comment stems from
frustration expressed by Board members during interviews w/VK. Board members
feel like the numbers cannot be relied upon to any extent and financial
information is not provided in a timely manner. Steve indicated (somewhat in
confidence) that this comment is primarily designed to appease the Chair of
Finance and address his frustrations.

I know it is probably not a big deal but I just thought maybe we should let
Scott know about this in the event he wanted to make political statement about
it. In addition, knowing how DOC works, I can assure you that the Secretary of
DOC does not know how Jackson is handling this. Given the potential political
ramifications of such a response, I belive the DOC Secretary may give different
direction if he was aware of it. I know our plates are full, but it would be
nice to call them on this or place a call higher up the chain and express our
displeasure, But I leave it up to you.

The question is narrow, but you will need to review the redemption section on
the bonds before you can answer the question. You also do not want to answer
the question without consulting bond counsel, which is why the Museum has
involved their bond counsel. I will talk to you when you get in.

You better call Bill this AM because the below indicates they are proceeding
with this and you should understand what they are proceeding with. There does
not appear to be time for input because he sent this to us (you included) a
couple months ago and we never responded.

The question is narrow, but you will need to review the redemption section on
the bonds before you can answer the question. You also do not want to answer
the question without consulting bond counsel, which is why the Museum has
involved their bond counsel. I will talk to you when you get in.

this should not take much time. This is a very narrow question. What debt is

Call Bill and talk to him and then come see me. I am not expecting you to

Scott,
I've attached my latest 2007 projection based on the weekly invoices. Will
have to talk to understand your statement about $1.5 million 'carryover' from
2006. However, my latest projection for 2007 is very close to
yours--$119,382,000 (mine) vs. $120,238,000 (yours). You will note that I've
identified three Rx rebates totaling $777,760 that I believe relate back to
2006. My 2007 projected number includes an estimate of $1 million in rebates
relating to 2007, so I'm not sure if that accounts for our difference or not.
Either way, we're pretty darn close.
Talk to you soon.

HOC Security measures

Open Records Request-HOC.doc
HOC Security improvements.pdf

Jon, Ron Malone had indicated you would get back to me on the below request but
I have yet to hear from you.
I have heard that the security improvements required for HOC are all being
done in the current year with existing funds. On behalf of the County
Executive, I need to verity this is true since we have budgeted no funds for
this initiative in 2008.   For your information, I have attached the list per
the County Executive's press release on this topic.    Can you please provide
me confirmation that the attached list is being completed, how much each item
is expected to cost and the source of the 2007 funds being used to cover the
item. Again, I have received no request from HOC for these items as part of
2008 operating or capital budget. As we are wrapping up the budget process, I
need to confirm these things are getting done with 2007 funds so I can advise
the County Executive.
Thanks.

Milwaukee County House of Correction
Franklin, WI
Dear Ron:
As I mentioned in our conversation today, I’m seeking House of Correction records
relating to the escape of Michael Verville from the facility, as well as other records.
Under the Wisconsin Open Records law, I’m requesting copies of the internal
investigative report prepared by the facility regarding the escape, as well as any
recommendations by your department on disciplinary actions, changes in procedure and
policy as a result of the escape. It’s my understanding this report is not yet finished.
Please consider this a standing request to receive that as soon as it is completed.
In addition, if the Sheriff’s Department submits a written report of its separate
investigation, I would like to be notified of that and receive a copy.
I’m also seeking the latest reports on the issues of forced overtime and vacancies as they
compare now to earlier this year. I would like to examine the forced overtime logs for
July and August, as I did earlier for July. I also understand from our conversation that
reports are being prepared for the September Personnel Committee cycle.
I appreciate your continued cooperation in documenting these issues. Please feel free to
contact me if you have any questions about this request.
Sincerely,
Dave Umhoefer

Consistent with your conversation today, the Fiscal position in HR will be
eliminated and your position (HR Specialist?) will be funded in 2008. I also
think now that the decision is made for 2008, if you have the money Rob may be
open to allowing you to fill it yet this year. I talked to him about it and
the fact that the incumbent in the fiscal position may be interested in
competing for your position. Anyway, just wanted to let you know that this has
worked out the way we discussed.

Re: HOC Security measures

Open Records Request-HOC.doc

High

I have attached below the press release related to security improvements at HOC
as indicated by the CEX. The report back from HOC below indicates the fence
sensor system will not be done. We have received no 2008 capital request for
this item.
In addition, the motion cameras apparently will not be done either. We have
received no 2008 capital request for this item. If HOC intends to do the
security cameras in 2007 from existing bond proceeds, then a request should be
submitted reallocating bond proceeds from another HOC capital project.
If the intent was to bond for these two items in 2008, I am letting you know
they have not been requested and are not currently included in the 2008 capital
budget. As of now, neither project is funded in 2007 or 2008.
Please provide direction.

I spoke to Pamela Bryant and Vanessa Allen regarding this matter. I apologize
for not understanding that I needed to respond to you directly. I the past I
was expected to work with staff and not the Fiscal and BUdget Administrator.
The HOC does not have funds for either the fence sensor system estimated at
$200,000 or the motion cameras estimated at $50,000. (I realize that the
County Exec included these items in his "immediate security improvements
order", but ,personally, I do not believe that these are projects that should
be pursued. If existing staff had done their jobs, the escape would not have
occurred.)
The HOC will absorb the cost of the other security improvements within their
existing operating budget. If the work requires the use of an outside
contractor, the expenditure will be charged to a 6600 series repair and
maintenance account. If the work will be performed by HOC staff, the parts
will be charged to account 7980 repair parts.

New decisoin item for Parks and Land sales
Tuesday, September 04, 2007 11:39:49 AM

Please do a decision item for the Parks department reflecting the receipt of
$570,000 of easement revenue and corresponding levy reduction in 2008.
Please do a decision item in Land sales refecting the sale of Greenhouse land
(get the description from Pam) for $400,000 in 2008. On the land sale briefing
document I would like to see the detail behind our projection in terms of which
parcels and for what amounts.
Pam, we have to increase bonding for the greenhouse contruction in the amount
of $970,000 and go back to the CEX with recommended reductions to offset this
add back.

Cindy,
            How do you square the 10.68% levy increase in the ’08 budget
requests with the county executive’s zero levy increase policy?

Cindy,
            Have you done a summary of position cuts/increases proposed in
departmental submissions? I’m reviewing them individually but I’d be interested
in seeing a summary if you have one.
            Thanks.

Not sure what you are asking. Clearly the CEX has a directive for a budget
that has no levy increase and that is what we are working on. Stay tuned. :)

Chad, thank you for getting your documents done last night. Given the
complexities of your issues, please review these with Molly this morning. Two
sets of eyes would probably be good.
Molly, I am meeting with Scott and Pam today on POBs. This is the last place
place I can attempt to fill our remaining hole. What is our remaining hole?

Park"s Patrol name
Wednesday, September 05, 2007 6:51:37 PM

I think we might want to consider coming up with a new name for the Park's
Department Parks Patrol since the Sheriff has a unit named exactly the same
thing. Sue Black had suggested "Park Ranger Unit" and SW did not like that.
What about "Parks Security and Enforcement Unit" given that they are intended
to only issue violations of park rules and that they are really only the eyes
and ears for the Sheriff's department in the event law-breaking is occurring.
Other ideas -- Park Watch Unit (similar to neighborhood watch) -- Parks Safety
Patrol -- Parks Safety Cycle Patrol -- Parks Safety Pedal Patrol --Any other
ideas? My creativity is running low....

Overtime initiative
Thursday, September 06, 2007 10:36:00 AM
Code overtime provisions.doc

I would like to propose the attached modifications to the County's current
overtime policy. The intent of the changes is to authorize overtime only as
required by the Fair Labor Standards Act and collective bargaining agreements.
MaryAnn Grimes has reviewed this and is in full support. Karen Jackson also
fully supports and indicated it is consistent with other things she is working
towards.
Unless I hear from you differently, I have this on the list as a comeback
item. I would like to discuss this with the CEX with staff out of the room. I
think it is a nice addition to his Overtime Reduction Initiative.

17.16. Overtime compensation.
This section shall be applied in the following manner, and consistent with collective bargaining
agreements and state and federal regulations:
(1) Employees may be assigned to overtime work provided that such overtime shall be
limited to emergency conditions which endanger the public health, welfare or safety; or
for services required for the protection or preservation of public property; or to perform
the essential functions of a department which cannot be performed with the personnel
available during normal work hours, either because of vacancies in authorized positions
or because of an abnormal peak load in the activities of the department; or for other
purposes which specific provision for overtime compensation has been made by the
county board. Employee s required to work overtime shall be compensated as follows:
(a) Employees represented by a collective bargaining unit shall be compensated for
overtime in accordance with provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act and the
respective collective bargaining agreement.
(b) Employees who are not represented by a collective bargaining unit shall be
compensated for overtime as follows: employees holding positions which are
non-exempt from the Fair Labor Standards Act shall receive time and one-half
for all hours worked in excess of eight (8) hours in a twenty-four (24) hour
period or of forty (40) hours per week regardless of the pay range to which the
position held is assigned; employees holding positions authorized in pay range
28M and below which are deemed to be exempt from the Fair Labor Standards
Act shall receive time and one-half for all hours worked in excess of eight (8)
hours in a twenty-four (24) hour period or forty (40) hours per week; employees
holding positions authorized in pay range 29M and above shall receive straight
time overtime for all hours worked in excess of forty (40) hours in a week; and
employees holding a position authorized in the executive compensation plan
shall be considered as salaried and shall not be compensated for overtime.
(c) Employees holding positions authorized on a seasonal basis shall receive time
and one-half for all hours worked in excess of forty (40) hours per week.
(d) Unless a collective bargaining agreement deems otherwise, an appointing
authority may approve payment, or the accrual of compensatory time, for
overtime. However, no employee may accrue more than two hundred forty
(240) hours of compensatory time, unless permitted by the provisions of the Fair
Labor Standards Act.
(e) Employees holding positions which are covered by the annual work year who
are eligible for time and one-half overtime shall receive payment for the half
time portion of the overtime and shall accrue the straight time portion of the
overtime as compensatory time, up to a maximum of two hundred forty (240)
hours of compensatory time, after which all overtime shall be paid.
(f)

Elected officials, members of boards and commissions, and employees
compensated on a per diem, per call or per session basis shall not be
compensated for overtime.

CArcher_Email3015298

(g) Employees included in the executive compensation plan are to be considered
salaried employees and therefore are not eligible for accrual of compensatory
time or payment of overtime. Executive level employees shall be expected to
work sufficient hours to perform their assigned duties effectively.

(h) Unless overtime is required in accordance with the provisions of the Fair Labor
Standards Act, employees shall not receive overtime for hours worked, or
credited, in excess of eight (8) hours per day or forty (40) hours per week, if
such overtime is due to holding dual employment status.
(2) Under the conditions specified for emergency overtime, employees may be permitted to
work on holidays or during vacation periods without compensatory time and receive
double time for each day so worked provided that only the hours actually worked on
each of these days shall be considered in any computation of overtime for the biweekly
period in which they occurred.
(3) No payment shall be made for overtime unless funds have been provided for such
payment in the appropriation for personal services or unless a surplus exists in such
appropriation, by reason of vacancies and turnover in authorized positions.

(4) The director of human resources may review the time records submitted by the
departments for the purpose of determining the extent to which overtime is being worked
and compensation time allowed; and may require the heads of departments to submit
reports, supplementary information or other data relative to the need for overtime work;
may investigate the cause and justification for such overtime; and may prescribe such
rules or regulations as in his/her opinion are necessary to control and restrict overtime to
emergency conditions. The director is further empowered to recommend changes in
procedure or administrative practices which in his/her opinion will eliminate the need for
overtime work, and to report to the appropriate committee of the county board instances
in which the department head refuses to comply with the recommendations.

Below is the information that I have on the 2008 capital projects for the
motion sensors on the fence and the cameras. The estimated cost of the motion
sensors is approximately $200,000. If this project is funded, the HOC will
continue to look at alternatives that would be more cost effective.
I have been convinced that the camera project is worth pursuing. The use of
motion detection cameras will not only improve the monitoring of inmate
movement, but will also allow the HOC to monitor the rounds of security staff.
The cost of this project is approximately $50,000. The cameras would not be
routed to master control but would be routed to the control center in the
Lotter Building. If I could find funds for the cameras in the operating budget
or surplus capital, I would pursue this project in 2007.

Jon                     The House of Corrections proposes installing motion
detection cable routed back to a controller to monitor the interior of the
fence line, so if anyone touches the interior fence an alarm would sound and
security could respond to alarm.                 The House of Corrections
proposes installing 5 motion activated cameras on the F.M.L. Building and
Industries Building to cover the North West & North East corners of the fence
line. And to cover the South East end of the Laundry and the South West end of
the fence including the North vehicle gate. The 5 th camera would face due
south and would monitor all inmate movement from the A.C.C. building to and
from the Industries and F.M.L. The cameras will be monitored from the
sergeants pod in F.M.L. the cameras will record any movement inmate or officer
and be stored on a digital D.V.R. recorder.

17.16. Overtime compensation.
This section shall be applied in the following manner, and consistent with collective bargaining
agreements and state and federal regulations:
(1) Employees may be assigned to overtime work provided that such overtime shall be
limited to emergency conditions which endanger the public health, welfare or safety; or
for services required for the protection or preservation of public property; or to perform
the essential functions of a department which cannot be performed with the personnel
available during normal work hours, either because of vacancies in authorized positions
or because of an abnormal peak load in the activities of the department; or for other
purposes which specific provision for overtime compensation has been made by the
county board. Employee s required to work overtime shall be compensated as follows:
(a) Employees represented by a collective bargaining unit shall be compensated for
overtime in accordance with provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act and the
respective collective bargaining agreement.
(b) Employees who are not represented by a collective bargaining unit shall be
compensated for overtime as follows: employees holding positions which are
non-exempt from the Fair Labor Standards Act shall receive time and one-half
for all hours worked in excess of eight (8) hours in a twenty-four (24) hour
period or of over forty (40) hours per week regardless of the pay range to which
the position held is assigned.; employees holding positions authorized in pay
range 28M and below which are deemed to be exempt from the Fair Labor
Standards Act shall receive time and one-half for all hours worked in excess of
eight (8) hours in a twenty-four (24) hour period or forty (40) hours per week;
employees holding positions authorized in pay range 29M and above shall
receive straight time overtime for all hours worked in excess of forty (40) hours
in a week; and Eemployees holding a position exempt from the Fairl Labor
Standards Act authorized in the executive compensation plan shall be
considered as salaried and shall not be compensated for overtime.
(c) Employees holding positions authorized on a seasonal basis shall receive time
and one-half for all hours worked in excess of forty (40) hours per week.
(d) Unless a collective bargaining agreement deems otherwise, an appointing
authority may approve payment, or the accrual of compensatory time, for
overtime. However, no employee may accrue more than two hundred forty
(240) hours of compensatory time, unless permitted by the provisions of the Fair
Labor Standards Act.
(e) Employees holding positions which are covered by the annual work year who
are eligible for time and one-half overtime shall receive payment for the half
time portion of the overtime and shall accrue the straight time portion of the
overtime as compensatory time, up to a maximum of two hundred forty (240)
hours of compensatory time, after which all overtime shall be paid.
(f)

Elected officials, members of boards and commissions, and employees
compensated on a per diem, per call or per session basis shall not be
compensated for overtime.

CArcher_Email3015328

(g) Employees included in the executive compensation plan are to be considered
salaried employees and therefore are not eligible for accrual of compensatory
time or payment of overtime. Executive level employees shall be expected to
work sufficient hours to perform their assigned duties effectively.

(h) Unless overtime is required in accordance with the provisions of the Fair Labor
Standards Act, employees shall not receive overtime for hours worked, or
credited, in excess of eight (8) hours per day or forty (40) hours per week, if
such overtime is due to holding dual employment status.
(2) Under the conditions specified for emergency overtime, employees may be permitted to
work on holidays or during vacation periods without compensatory time and receive
double time for each day so worked provided that only the hours actually worked on
each of these days shall be considered in any computation of overtime for the biweekly
period in which they occurred.
(3) No payment shall be made for overtime unless funds have been provided for such
payment in the appropriation for personal services or unless a surplus exists in such
appropriation, by reason of vacancies and turnover in authorized positions.

(4) The director of human resources may review the time records submitted by the
departments for the purpose of determining the extent to which overtime is being worked
and compensation time allowed; and may require the heads of departments to submit
reports, supplementary information or other data relative to the need for overtime work;
may investigate the cause and justification for such overtime; and may prescribe such
rules or regulations as in his/her opinion are necessary to control and restrict overtime to
emergency conditions. The director is further empowered to recommend changes in
procedure or administrative practices which in his/her opinion will eliminate the need for
overtime work, and to report to the appropriate committee of the county board instances
in which the department head refuses to comply with the recommendations.

        2008 Budget





Hi Kevin. Per your request, the following summarizes the 2008 Recommended
Budget modifications we discussed this afternoon:
$241,380 would be added back to the budget in order to eliminate the reduction
in Park Patrol overtime.
$94,970 would be added back to the budget to eliminate the deletion of the new
Data Analyst Sheriff position.
$39,100 would be added back to the budget to eliminate the reduction in
travel/meetings. If you would like to substitute either the restoration of the
Public Safety Fiscal Analyst V&T ($42,276), the laser funding ($35,000) or the
computer funding ($35,000) for this restoration, that would be fine.
Approximately $360,000 in revenue associated with an assumption of 192
additional State inmates, as opposed to the 180 in your requested budget, will
be added to the budget. This will help to offset the expenditures cited
above. You will essentially be allowed to utilize all of this additional
revenue in your budget, as opposed to having half of it utilized by the HOC.

CArcher_Email3015332

All of the other modifications we discussed on the phone earlier this week
would remain in the budget. However, if you would like to substitute increased
V&T of $289,120 for the abolishment of the five Clerical Assistant 2 positions,
that would be fine.
I hope this works for you and the Sheriff. I look forward to talking to you on
Monday.

Other ideas appreciated.
Rob, a couple of things. We will not know exactly where we are at until the
fringe is run tomorrow. I would be nice to have a little cushion somewhere in
case we swing upwards.
On the options, if we get into running new debt schedules, we need to get PFM
involved. The option on the attached that would require this is if he chose
not to make a payment in 2008. We could do it, but as you know time is running
short.
If you think I should send this off to Walker, Eberle and Nardelli for
consideration over the weekend let me know.

restructuring debt payments (smoothing). Debt payments would need to be pushed forward to minimize
2009 impact because general obligation debt will also increase by approximately $5.0 million in 2009 and
then level out. [Note: 2007 proposal did not include payment in year 1]

County Financial Management and Property Taxes
The Executive recommends:
• Property Tax Freeze: The 2007 Executive Budget proposal freezes property taxes for the fourth year in a
row. Executive’s proposed 2007 Budget:
 Includes the lowest tax rate in over 20 years: Under the Kelso proposed 2007 Budget, the property
tax rate dips to the lowest rate in over 20 years. If adopted by the County Board, the County tax rate
will have decreased by over 17% during the Kelso Administration.

 Continues to reverse the 20-year trend of government over-spending: During the Kelso
Administration, property taxes that had increased by over 9%, 10%, 11% per year have slowed to less
than 2.2% per year -- saving Brown County taxpayers more than $55 million over four years. The
2007 Budget, like Kelso’s previous three budgets, includes a true property tax freeze – when Brown
County residents open their tax bill in December they will see that, on average, they will pay the same
in County property taxes in 2007 as they did in 2004, 2005 and 2006.

 Does not rely on accounting tricks or the historic use of County reserves: The Kelso proposed
2007 Budget makes no use of general fund reserves – proposed 2007 spending is fully supported by
ongoing revenues for the first time in eight years.

 Does not burden future generations by borrowing beyond our means. The 2007 Budget includes
only modest bonding for County highway and road construction and maintenance, County-owned
facility investments and technology infrastructure. This is a fiscally responsible bonding plan that will
maintain the debt-to-total levy ratio of 12.8% to ensure debt payments do not burden future taxpayers.

Public Safety and Law Enforcement
The Executive recommends:
• Providing approximately $3.4 million to increase funding and staffing for the Sheriff’s Department
Targeted Enforcement Unit to enhance patrols and public safety in high-need areas of the County. . The
additional funding will allow for the addition of 9.0 nine Deputy Sheriff positions and two Deputy Sheriff
Sergeant positions, bringing total staffing to 25 Deputy Sheriffs and 2 Deputy Sheriff Sergeant positions.
• Providing approximately $865,000 to fully-fund the Sheriff’s Department five-member Drug Enforcement
Unit and the department’s High Intensity Drug Trafficking program to combat illegal drug activities
within Milwaukee County.
• A continued commitment of $_______to Airport Security by providing 54 Deputy Sheriffs, 6 Sergeants, 1
Captain and ___K9 Units for patrols and security duties at General Mitchell International Airport.

Thanks.
These are not easy choices. And yes, there are variations to the options
listed, but I was trying to keep it as simple as possible just to get a sense
of where his policy/political head is at.
I can argue to pros and cons of each as I am sure you can. I think that's what
needs to happen now -- a good 'ol fashion debate about pros and cons. If I had
to pick, I would probably go with #1 leaving the cultural people upset and
probably leaving BHD with an overtime hole. One could argue that the cultural
people should not be immune but that is a political call.
For some reason he seems bent on the IM cut. Perhaps that is coming from his
other advisors. Assuming he does not come in on Monday morning with his mind
made up, maybe we could get some time with him to hash out the attached.
I am very anxious to see our numbers once fringe is spread today......

I think this is good, Cindy. There are obviously sub-options that we could
develop off of the five you developed, but after a while you can drive yourself
crazy, so I think presenting these five is fine. Also, one small point, we
would have a gain of $67,000 if he elects to put back some or all of the IM, as
we could then get 50% Fed match for the increased 211 contribution.
In regard to the PFM issue, I think the key issue is whether he is comfortable
going up so much more (in addition to the $1 million from Friday) in terms of
the 2009 hole. If he is, then we can debate whether to show it as a reduced
stabilization fund or putting off the interest payment. I don't think he's
inclined to do so, and I think that's a good thing, so let's just hold off and
see what he says.

I think you can send this off today, but he is unlikely to see it before
Monday, so if you would prefer to discuss one last time Monday morning that's

Other ideas appreciated.
Rob, a couple of things. We will not know exactly where we are at until the
fringe is run tomorrow. I would be nice to have a little cushion somewhere in
case we swing upwards.
On the options, if we get into running new debt schedules, we need to get PFM
involved. The option on the attached that would require this is if he chose
not to make a payment in 2008. We could do it, but as you know time is running
short.
If you think I should send this off to Walker, Eberle and Nardelli for
consideration over the weekend let me know.

Scott, I think this looks good. My only remaining issue is that you may want
to put a sentence in that explains the revised salary projection for
Facilities. I recall that this was not related to holding postions vacant but
rather more accurate accounting of their avaialable salary and fringe funds
available. I do not want to give the impression that we required them to not
fill positions to get this savings. The Board will be very sensitive to what
we "made" departments do to achieve savings and I don't want them to go down
the road of wanting a complete listing of every positoin held vacant and every
captial expenditure that will not be made. I don't think either of these apply
to Facilities re-estimate, so could you make that more clear?

I have attached the updated fiscal projection. The fiscal projection is now a
deficit of $71,663. This projection has very little cushion in it. The
projection does not include any of the costs of labor contracts for the nurses
and deputies if we end up with their version of the contract.
Questions from you.
Confusion on a sentence in the interest income paragraph - I have made changes
to the paragraph to better explain the issue. I have simplified the
explanation.
Paragraph on the Debt Service Reserve $2.0 million - I have made changes to the
paragraph but I believe it needs to be in the memo, since we have mentioned it
in previous memos. See the rewriting, but it is your call.
Paragraph on the Salary Savings - This paragraph has been removed.

CArcher_Email3015353

Paragraph on the savings on encumbrances and capital outlay. - this paragraph
should be in to talk about what we have done to achieve savings, plus the
current status of these items. We cover the issue of spending by saying that
departments have included much of this in their quarterly projections.

Scott B. Manske, Controller

SUBJECT

Updated 2007 Fiscal Report based on June 30, 2007 Departmental Projections
On July 3, 2007, the Department of Administrative Services had projected Milwaukee County’s
2007 fiscal status as a projected deficit of ($4,200,000). The Department of Administrative
Services requested an updated fiscal report from each department based on June 30 2007 fiscal
results. Based on these revised estimates, the projected deficit for Milwaukee County for 2007
has decreased to $71,663. This is an improvement of $4,128,000 from the previous projection.
The projection has improved by $4.1 million due to improvements in departmental projections of
$1.7 million and improvements in non-departmental projections, including fringe benefits of $2.4
million.
The major improvements in departmental projections occurred in DAS-IMSD ($494,000),
DTPW – Facilities ($404,000), and DHHS ($647,000).
• DAS – IMSD was projecting a breakeven for the year, but this has improved to a surplus
of $494,000. Additional savings in personnel services has led to the improvement in the
department’s fiscal position.
•

DTPW – Facilities Management is now projecting a surplus of $50,000 for 2007, which
is an improvement of $400,000 over their earlier projected deficit of ($350,000).
Improvements in wage savings and other expenditures have allowed for the improvement
in the fiscal position of the department.

•

The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has reevaluated its fiscal
position for 2007 and is now projecting a surplus of $1,657,000. The surplus consists of
a prior year revenue surplus of $3.4 million, plus net savings in expenditures and other
revenues of $850,000 offset by a deficit in Youth Aids revenue of $2.6 million.
Additional savings in expenditures and other revenues have created the additional surplus
for DHHS as of the end of the second quarter.

The major improvements in non-departmental projections occurred in Fringe Benefits
($2,108,000), and Medicare Part-D reimbursement ($400,000).
• Fringe Benefits were projected to have a surplus of $3.9 million as of the end of the first
quarter. This surplus has now improved to $6.0 million. The surplus consists of a
surplus in health costs of $6.5 million offset by lower revenue and higher expenditures in
other areas of $500,000. Current year health care costs are expected to be better than
budget by $5.0 million. Prior year health costs continue to do better than accruals
booked as of December 31, 2006, which could provide additional savings of $1.5 million.
Lower revenue for health contributions and higher costs for other health care items will
decrease these health care surpluses by $500,000.

•

Medicare Part D Reimbursement has been fully received for a full year of Medicare
retiree prescription costs. Based on actual cash receipts, the County is projecting a
$400,000 surplus for 2007.

•

Interest income was projected to surplus by $1.0 million as of the first quarter 2007. The
Treasurer has prepared a revised projection as of the second quarter of 2007. The
Treasurer’s revised second quarter interest income projection reduced the surplus to
$300,000. The Department of Administrative Services has reviewed the projection, the
activity for July 2007, and the current estimate of market rate adjustments. Based on this
review, and discussions with the Treasurer, the Department of Administrative Services
has updated the County-wide interest income projection to a $1.0 million surplus for
2007.

Earlier projections had included $2.0 million from the Debt Service Reserve as a possible offset
to the 2007 projected deficit. The $2.0 million in the Debt Service Reserve came from the 2006
surplus through a fund transfer. This transfer provided funds that could be used as alternative
debt funding in 2007 or 2008, which would make tax levy funding available for other needs.
Since the deficit has decreased, the 2007 projection does not call for the use of these reserves.
Changes in 2007 departmental projections may require use of these funds.
In July departments were asked to review open encumbrances to provide additional savings to
for 2007. This review of year-old open encumbrances led to the cancellation of $323,000 of
encumbrances that were no longer needed. In addition, the Department of Administrative
Services has been doing a detailed review of departmental capital outlay budgets. At present
there are $2.0 million of departmental capital outlay funds that are being held for savings. We
are continuing to review these budgeted capital outlay funds to determine any funds that may be
available or which should be returned for departmental spending. Many departments have
already included savings from these two initiatives in their departmental projections.
The Department of Administrative Services will monitor the countywide financial position. Any
changes to the fiscal status will be reported to this committee in the next monthly cycle.
Committee Action: This is an informational report only. This report should be referred to and
reviewed by the Finance and Audit Committee.

Re: Centers
Tuesday, September 11, 2007 10:32:43 AM

We added back $366,305 and 3.0 FTE -- One manager and two supervisors (one for
each center) and commodity funds.
Remember each center did have a manager, a supervisor and park maintenance
workers for total of six positions. We have streamlined the management
structure such that one Manager will have oversight of both centers, each
center will have an on-site supervisor and maintenance will be performed by
seasonals or the total of three positions.

This is a big problem. You may want to start thinking about where you want to
take cuts to come up with the $980,000 revenue increase we put in. At this
point, cuts cannot involve positions since we have locked down the fringe
number and it is too late to re-run fringe.
We may have to take out the cultural funding and some of the other things he
added late in the process (e.g., senior center maintenance, etc.) You may want
to prepare him for this turn of events.
Lets see where we are at the end of the day when our budget numbers are tied
out.

ASSEMBLY LEADERS PONDER K-12, SHARED REVENUE, LEVY LIMITS SESSION NEXT WEEK.
Assembly Republican leaders were meeting this morning to consider calling
CArcher_Email3015359

members back into session next week to take up a bill providing funding for
K-12, shared revenue and levy limits. Speaker Huebsch is expected to announce
the session following Thursday’s meeting of the budget conference committee,
provided there is no agreement reached on school funding at that session.
The Assembly Republican package would put K-12 funding in the range of Gov.
Doyle’s proposal, about $485 million over current spending, keep shared revenue
at levels set in current law, and provide for increases in local levies tied
only to growth. The shared revenue proposal would increase spending levels from
the Assembly-passed budget by about $50 million. The Assembly put most of the
money in its budget into the school levy property tax credit, while Doyle put
most of his additional spending into general school aids.
According to one source, “If the decision to go to the floor is going to be
made, it will be made fairly early this week, possibly in advance of the
conference committee meeting. The decision could be announced at the conference
committee meeting, the source said. The conference committee is now expected to
meet Thursday morning.
Indications are a bill advancing the Assembly Republican caucus position on
K-12, etc. is being drafted. In order to be on a Tuesday Calendar, the bill
would need to be introduced and referred to the Calendar by Friday.
DOYLE ORDERS $50 MILLION TRANSFER TO ‘RAINY DAY’ FUND
Gov. Doyle said today he will order the transfer of $50 million into the
state’s rainy day fund, which has a current balance of $780,000. The
announcement came after the LFB told Joint Finance Co-Chairs Decker and Rhoades
actual collections of general fund taxes were $22.1 million over estimates for
FY06-07. Individual income tax collections were up $18.8 million over
estimates, while general sales and use taxes were down $5.6 million from
estimates.
Doyle said a growing economy and “responsible state budgeting” has achieved a
surplus beyond the statutory balance of $65 million at the end of each fiscal
year, allowing the transfer. State law provides that if actual tax collections
exceed estimates and the required general fund ending balance is fully funded
for that fiscal year, one-half of the excess revenues must be transferred to
the rainy day fund.

Below is the information that I have on the 2008 capital projects for the
motion sensors on the fence and the cameras. The estimated cost of the motion
sensors is approximately $200,000. If this project is funded, the HOC will
continue to look at alternatives that would be more cost effective.
I have been convinced that the camera project is worth pursuing. The use of
motion detection cameras will not only improve the monitoring of inmate
movement, but will also allow the HOC to monitor the rounds of security staff.
The cost of this project is approximately $50,000. The cameras would not be
routed to master control but would be routed to the control center in the
Lotter Building. If I could find funds for the cameras in the operating budget
or surplus capital, I would pursue this project in 2007.

Jon                     The House of Corrections proposes installing motion
detection cable routed back to a controller to monitor the interior of the
fence line, so if anyone touches the interior fence an alarm would sound and
security could respond to alarm.                 The House of Corrections
proposes installing 5 motion activated cameras on the F.M.L. Building and
Industries Building to cover the North West & North East corners of the fence
line. And to cover the South East end of the Laundry and the South West end of
the fence including the North vehicle gate. The 5 th camera would face due
south and would monitor all inmate movement from the A.C.C. building to and
from the Industries and F.M.L. The cameras will be monitored from the
sergeants pod in F.M.L. the cameras will record any movement inmate or officer
and be stored on a digital D.V.R. recorder.

Take a look at this. I cannot involve analysts right now because they are all
still trying to tie out numbers. Did I forget anything major? Also, it would
be nice to be able to say what we are getting out of all the money we are
putting into the Courts given they are almost fully funded but then we get into
the issue of adding the state funding, etc. I feel pressure to get something
to him because I sense he is figuring out the timing of his annoncements....to
the extent we get something to him, we are not then reacting.

Public Safety and Law Enforcement
The Executive recommends:
• Providing almost $3.6 million (includes $150,000 for bonded vehicles) for staffing and
equipment for the Sheriff’s Department Targeted Enforcement Unit to enhance patrols and
public safety in high-need areas of the County. The recommended funding will provide for
a Tactical Enforcement Unit consisting of 25 deputy sheriffs, 2 sergeants and the addition of
public safety vehicles.
• Providing approximately $865,000 to fully-fund the Sheriff’s Department five-member
Drug Enforcement Unit and the department’s High Intensity Drug Trafficking program
to combat illegal drug activities within Milwaukee County. (Is this an increase from 2007?)
• A continued commitment of $_______to Airport Security by providing 54 Deputy Sheriffs,
6 Sergeants, 1 Captain and four K9 Units for patrols and security duties at General Mitchell
International Airport.
• Providing full staffing and funding of $8.0 million for the Sheriff’s Department’s 57member Expressway Patrol Unit to ensure 24-hr highway safety and emergency assistance
to motorists. Funding for this program is partially offset by approximately $2.7 million in
citation revenue, $1.9 million in County Trunk Maintenance revenue and $1.1 million in
state revenue.
• Full funding of the Sheriff’s department Emergency Management program, Parks Patrol
program, county ground security patrols and Zoo security program.
• Providing $3.5 million to municipalities to offset Emergency Medical Services costs and
providing $540,000 in capital funds for the replacement of outdated cardiac
monitor/defibrillator equipment on paramedic transport units operating within Milwaukee
County.
• Enhanced law enforcement support by providing $167,000 in capital funding for the
replacement of forensic equipment in the Medical Examiner’s toxicology laboratory
• Enhanced Courthouse Security by providing $_____ for additional bailiff services in the
Courts and $______ in capital bonding for the installation of court room videoconferencing
equipment and the installation of bullet resistance glazing walls in ____ courtrooms. These
resources will improve Courthouse security and reduce overtime costs.
• Authorizing contracted prisoner transport services resulting in a savings of approximately
$300,000 annually.
• Enhanced use of electronic monitoring for work release inmates currently served at the
Community Correctional Center resulting improved monitoring and accountability of
offenders while in the community and a savings of over $_________. This initiative
includes the creation of a Community Services Coordinator to transition CCC offenders into
available community-based treatment and job skills programs.
• Providing over $_______ in capital improvement funding for the House of Corrections,
including $250,000 for security enhancements.

CArcher_Email3015366

• Increased funding of $110,310 for community-based rehabilitative and educational
programming services at the Community Justice Resource Center that serves as an
alternative to incarceration for participants.
• Funding the opening of three additional dorms at the HOC to house a projected increase in
the state inmates. These costs are fully offset by the receipt of additional revenue from the
State. (Is this correct?)
• Closure of the Farm and Fish Hatchery at the House of Corrections for a savings of
$256,384 enabling the savings to be reallocated to higher priority public safety needs.

As I suspected, the computer funds were CMO dollars and would not help the

in 2007 and then I will revisit the maintenance funds? Will this work?

Pam,
Thank you for calling me back. Just to follow up on our conversation that you
and Dan are looking into what happened with MCDA frozen capital accounts. You
and I reviewed the 7/27/07 justification for spending funds memo to Dan and
noted the following:
Fund 01: Of the $433,222 balance, MCDA is making $15,000 available for County
use in 2007 towards the County's bottom line. The Department is requesting
that the remaining balance of $418,222 that is already committed should be
preserved (unfreeze) for use in 2007. This amount consist of $310,722
dedicated to the Senior Centers major maintenance; $82,500 allocated to
implement a Barcoding System to meet the Old Americans reporting requirement;
and $25,000 committed to office furniture and reconfiguration.
Fund 02: According to Scott's report the entire CMO computer reserve balance
of $608,590 has been unfrozen. However, MCDA-CMO is making available $549,490
CArcher_Email3015381

for County use in 2007 with the understanding that the funds will be restored
to the CMO in 2008 as suggested in our 7/27/2007 justification memo to Dan.
The Department is requesting that only $59,100 for the servers purchased but
not yet paid for remain unfrozen.
We would appreciate if the changes are done in time to reflect in MCDA's August
financials. Please let me know if you have further questions. Thank you

Public Safety and Law Enforcement
The Executive recommends:
• Providing almost $3.6 million (includes $150,000 for bonded vehicles) for staffing and
equipment for the Sheriff’s Department Targeted Enforcement Unit to enhance patrols and
public safety in high-need areas of the County. The recommended funding will provide for
a Tactical Enforcement Unit consisting of 25 deputy sheriffs, 2 sergeants and the addition of
public safety vehicles.
• Providing approximately $865,000 to fully-fund the Sheriff’s Department five-member
Drug Enforcement Unit and the department’s High Intensity Drug Trafficking program
to combat illegal drug activities within Milwaukee County. (Is this an increase from 2007?)
• A continued commitment of $_______to Airport Security by providing 54 Deputy Sheriffs,
6 Sergeants, 1 Captain and four K9 Units for patrols and security duties at General Mitchell
International Airport.
• Providing full staffing and funding of $8.0 million for the Sheriff’s Department’s 57member Expressway Patrol Unit to ensure 24-hr highway safety and emergency assistance
to motorists. Funding for this program is partially offset by approximately $2.7 million in
citation revenue, $1.9 million in County Trunk Maintenance revenue and $1.1 million in
state revenue.
• Full funding of the Sheriff’s department Emergency Management program, Parks Patrol
program, county ground security patrols and Zoo security program.
• Providing $3.0 million to municipalities to offset Emergency Medical Services costs,
$540,000 in capital funds for the replacement of outdated cardiac monitor/defibrillator
equipment on paramedic transport units operating within Milwaukee County and providing
over $2.8 million to support EMS communications and infrastructure.
• Enhanced law enforcement support by providing $167,000 in capital funding for the
replacement of drug testing equipment in the Medical Examiner’s toxicology laboratory
• Enhanced Courthouse Security by providing $_____ for additional bailiff services in the
Courts and $______ in capital bonding for the installation of court room videoconferencing
equipment and the installation of bullet resistance glazing walls in ____ courtrooms. These
resources will improve Courthouse security and reduce overtime costs.
• Authorizing contracted prisoner transport services resulting in a savings of approximately
$300,000 annually.
• Enhanced use of electronic monitoring for work release inmates currently served at the
Community Correctional Center resulting improved monitoring and accountability of
offenders while in the community and a savings of over $_________. This initiative
includes the creation of a Community Services Coordinator to transition CCC offenders into
available community-based treatment and job skills programs.
• Providing over $_______ in capital improvement funding for the House of Corrections,
including $250,000 for security enhancements.

CArcher_Email3015385

• Increased funding of $110,310 for community-based rehabilitative and educational
programming services at the Community Justice Resource Center that serves as an
alternative to incarceration for participants.
• Funding the opening of three additional dorms at the HOC to house a projected increase in
the state inmates. These costs are fully offset by the receipt of additional revenue from the
State. (Is this correct?)
• Closure of the Farm and Fish Hatchery at the House of Corrections for a savings of
$256,384 enabling the savings to be reallocated to higher priority public safety needs.
• Increased funding for the Firearm Offender Supervision Program to replace lost federal
funds and to increase the number of available slots from 60 slots in 2007 to 70 slots in 2008.
This program has been successful in diverting adjudicated delinquents from placement in
State facilities.
• Providing over $1 million in additional levy funding to cover the projected cost of State
charges for the placement of juveniles in State juvenile corrections facilities. Total State
charges are projected to increase by over $7 million compared to 2007 while projected state
youth aids revenue is projected to increase by approximately $6 million – leaving a gap of
$1 million to be funded from County property taxes.
• Continued support of over $13.8 million for intensive juvenile community-based
treatment and supervision services as an alternative to placing adjudicated juveniles in
costly State institutions. [Includes Wraparound, Level II Supervision Program and Serious
Chronic Offender Program]
• Creation of a Parks Patrol unit in the Parks Department to provide safety oversight,
coordination with the Sheriff’s Department and the resources necessary to enforce County
Parks rules and regulations.

I met with James and Pam today and they will be preparing one dotpoint for
inclusion at the end of the operating narrative related to 2008 Captial
Recommendations. The departments impacted by this are:
         Parks
        Sheriff
         Medical Examiner
         Highways
        Airport
        Aging
         Courts
         Zoo
         Cultural
         HOC
The dot point will list the total funding provided in the 2008 capital budget
recommendations and will list off a few of the larger or more visible projects
and refer the reader to the Capital Budget for more detail.
Pam and James, you need to pull these together now, so analysts can incorporate
into the narratives.

        Zoo - 2008 Budget Items





Cindy,
I'm thinking I should not have asked you if I could talk with the Zoo about the
CEX's decisions! Vera and Chuck are pushing for another meeting to discuss
adding back items. I spoke with Vera and told her that we would accept swaps
but not add-backs. Needless to say, she was still pushing for add-backs. I
asked her to give me a list of what she wants put back and the justification.
Below is an email from Vera outlining her add-back requests (my recommendations
are highlighted in red) and let me know if there is anything you may want to
change. If not, I will let Vera know that all cuts are final. Thanks.
Vince
________________________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________
Vince,
I got your voice mail message. I talked to Chuck regarding the items that were
cut in our budget. As you probably can guess, we would like all expenditure
reductions put back but I know we have to be realistic. So with that said,
below is a list of items we would like restored. Of course, full restoration
would be ideal.
1.
Zoo:
CArcher_Email3015393

Restore $30,612 for Tools and Minor Equipment -    This is for produce sales,
replacement nets, hoses, nozzles, animal food dishes, power washers, sea lion
pool supplies, special exhibit supplies and etc. I think I sent the animal
division list to you earlier this summer. These items are needed for everyday
activities. The Public Affairs division moved $30,000 from other accounts into
this account so that is why this increase looks so large.
DAS Analyst:
        Deny request. Even with DAS/CEX cuts ($40,612), Zoo still has $123,000
available for 2008.
                2008 DeptREQ   2006 Actual 2005 Actual
        $164,000   $124,000 $88,000

2.
Zoo:
Restore $13,236 for Zoo Worker 3 hours -
        The 2008 Request included Zoo Worker 2 & Zoo Worker 3 hours (all
seasonals who do not receive benefits) for the custodial needs of the
Gathering Place. The new facility will add 30,000 in additional square feet
(enclosing the area between the North and South Administrative buildings). The
Zoo Worker 2 hours are needed for the peak season (May - Sept) to handle the
increased workload and the Zoo Worker 3 hours are needed from   October thru
April. In the off season, we have less staff and more responsibility is given
to the remaining workers. The positions of Zoo Worker 2 and Zoo Worker 3 have
different responsibilities and compensation to go along with those duties.
        Additional Zoo Worker 2 hours are for the concessions area. We are
remodeling the Flamingo Cafe and adding a convenience store so we need
additional seasonal workers (these hours were approved by the CEX).
        The revenue of $124,000 that was added in the 2008 Budget consisted of
$80,000 in concessions and $44,000 in Group Sale rentals. The custodial
staff is needed to keep the facility clean during the day and also for evening
events. The total $124,000 that was projected was based on having the needed
staff to make the facility profitable. Without the needed staff, revenue
should be adjusted downward. If you reduce the staff, you need to   reduce the
revenue expectations.
DAS Analyst:
         Although its 30,000 sqft., the cleaning required involves fairly
routine things (floor cleaning, window washing, etc.). Doing these tasks
with    existing staff may be tight during the off-season, but as we are
looking for cost savings and nothing else was offered to be "swapped," I
would   deny this request of restoring the Zoo Worker III position (hours).
3.
Zoo:
Restore -$20,000 V&T relief. We had surpluses in the past because we did not
fill openings when our animal buildings were closed for renovations as part of
the nine-year capital campaign. All of our Zookeeper positions are filled
except for two Zookeeper positions - you have a cert request for those
positions. We need to cover our animal division posts so there are no savings
here. All of our vacant positions are either unfunded or already in V&T. This
year we have been hit with $45,419 in retirement payments - this will only get
worse as employees become eligible. My only area to cut would be in the
CArcher_Email3015394

seasonal area and these expenditures are used to generate revenue. If the
weather is good we need the flexibility to hire more seasonals - if it rains,
we send them home. If I don't have the help I can't make the money.
        DAS Analyst:
         Deny request.   Vera's request assumes that weather is near picture
perfect all summer long and that there will be little, if any rainy days to
send seasonal help home (for labor cost savings).
4.
Zoo:
Restore- $46,152 for major maintenance. You already know the reasons for this
- accreditation and the annual conference in 2008. Even without those events,
we still need more than the $146,000 that is in the 2007 Budget. We only have
$15,000 left in that account for the rest of this year. (Full funding of the
$113,130 increase would be great!)
DAS Analyst:
        This is the one area where I might say add-back some $ since the dept.
will have added expenses from the AZA conference and improvements to   meet
accreditation. With DAS/CEX cuts ($100,045), Zoo will have $225,263 available

Zoo:
Restore - $65,995 - reduce the revenue projection for the additional fee
increase of $0.25. We would like to apply the revenue reduction to the group
sales area. I would hate to price us out of the market. Group Sales brings in
over $3.6 million in revenues and we would not want to jeopardize this and lose
some of our larger clients.

DAS Analyst:
        Group sales include a per/person admission. For instance, if a company
books one of the picnic sites for an event, they are charged regular   zoo
admission per/person plus the catering, set-up, and other charges. Vera
believes that the $.25 increase in zoo admission will have a    detrimental
affect to their group sales in that companies (and/or individuals) may not want
to book their events at the Zoo if they have to pay an   additional $.25
per/person. There is some evidence that admission fee increases has negatively
affected group sales in 2001 ($100,000 dip in group sales) and 2005 ($50,000
dip in group sales). However, the admission fee increases were $1.00 (2000)
and $.98 (average increase) (2004) and the   group sales didn't dip until the
following year. Also, the admission fee increase is only $.25 which is quite a
bit less than the previous admission fee   increases, so I don't think they
would lose that much in group sales. Therefore, I would deny this request.

It is very important that you understand that the Society was asked to help
fill in the Zoo's budget hole by contributing an additional $504,910 even
though DAS gave the Zoo a target reduction of $260,000. We negotiated in good
faith and they committed to almost all of the funds we requested. This is
sending the wrong message by reducing our expenditures $221,193 and also
increasing fees an additional $0.25. The Society will interpret this as
bailing out the County problems and not helping the Zoo. They also want a
CArcher_Email3015395

commitment from the County to properly fund the Zoo. I can understand looking
for cuts of $76,545 to get to the budget target of $5,372,267 but going beyond
that will only hurt our operations and also hurt us in future negotiations with
the Society and hopefully they will not back out of their commitment once the
budget is released. I do understand what you are faced with but this is one
area where we have a public/private partnership that should be supported especially when they bring additional $$$ to the table.
Please let me know if you need additional information.

CEX DECISIONS
Thursday, September 13, 2007 10:57:14 AM

The decision was made by the CEX to:
Remove citation authority from parks patrol in Parks department. Since we did
not build revenue in for this there should be no fiscal impact.
Reverse the transfer of IGR staff from Board to DAS. Should remain as is.

Hi:
I spoke with the HOC regarding the replacement of one washer for 2008. The HOC
communicated that it would be difficult to function with the replacement of
only one of the three washers that were requested for 2008. They would be able
to function if two of the three washers were replaced. The capital budget
included the replacement of two of the three washers.
It was my understanding from the meeting with you that if the HOC option was
not feasible that funds should be reallocated from the play area project.
Therefore, DAS has temporarily reduced the play area account to $250,000 and
added $150,000 to the Fleet Acquisition project for the purchase of vehicles
for the Tactical Enforcement Unit (TEU). Please let me know if this is an
approach that meets your approval. Thanks.

question. My question was how much additionally would I have to pay to support
the Transit System. For example my property tax bill last year was $3,156.18.
I am in support of funding transit and if you can't answer the question, can

That means we would have to come up with another $50,000 or so for the items we

I will work with Cindy in the morning. The Exec wants to take remaining $75,00
from Treasurer and apply towards Zoo. In addition, he would like to fund if
possible all the Zoo request. I said if we have to take off two minor ones can
he live with it and he said yes. The $100,000 for maintenance at community
centers IS NOT an option to use for funding.

Per the email I just sent we are putting a V&T in A/E of $55,000 so some of the
levy you have found can fund the Zoo add ons.

        Revenue shortfall





I have an additional $474,300 in revenue that will reconcile most of the
$500,000 shortfall. Unless you and Rob would like to pursue a different
approach, A&E has agreed to reconcile the balance of $26,000 in 2008 so we do
not need to make any changes to their budget.

Thanks. I was trying to get ahead of Scott (I am finding that is hard to
do!). Anyway, hopefully it helps when he wants to do public release on public
safety.

Fw: 2008 CEX Capital Budget Highlight Bullets for Operating Budgets
Thursday, September 13, 2007 3:50:16 PM
2008 CEX Capital Bullets for Operating Budgets.doc

James has sent you a summary of capital budget items I would like included in
operating budget as we discussed earlier. To be clear, the intent is not to
repeat what is in the capital budget, but rather to alert the reader to refer
to the capital budget in key areas (i.e., parks, zoo, etc.) As you insert
these into your narrative I would like it to be the last dot point for budget
highlights. They should all be worded similar
Example 1
        The 2008 capital budget includes over $14 million in capital
investments for the Parks, including (list out only significant projects). See
2008 Recommended Budget for more detail.
Example 2
        The 2008 capital budget includes $505,000 for capital improvements at
the Charles Allis Art Museum. See 2008 Recommended Capital Budget for further
detail.
James has done a good job highlighting those departments I would like this
included in. It is my feeling that in the past, the recommemed capital
investments have gone unnoticed by the public, press and advocates. I think
this will get some of the 'good news' out.
Thanks.

In preparation for a story about the parks, here is a draft of an overview. I
need to plug in information about the latest version of the parks patrols and I
need details on the total work hours we get with the seasonals.

CArcher_Email3015424

Parks Package

Since Davida does not work on Mondays, I did not key in 4 hours of Holiday time
for her on Labor Day, which fell on a Monday (she worked 16.5 hours that week).
I normally would have keyed it for a flex employee if the holiday falls on what
is a regular scheduled work day for them.
Central Payroll indicated she could get it if management (you) approves it. Let
me know if you want it awarded to her and we can make an adjustment to her
timesheet. Thanks.

2008 capital highlights.doc

As the CEX moves ahead in making public budget announcements, he should not
forget his decisions related to key capital investments. I asked James to
prepare some totals for the more visible departments with key projects
highlighted. It is attached for your reference. My thinking was, things like
a total investment of almost $14 million in parks infrastructure and
improvements is nothing to sneeze at. Take a look and use as you see fit.
Nice work James!

abatement footnote
Thursday, September 13, 2007 5:42:01 PM

Molly and Alex, we need to develop a standard footnote for the narratives that
goes below the tables explaining our abatement change in 2008. My
understanding is that beginning in 2008, central chargebacks for space rental,
IMSD charges, telecommunication charges and HRIS charges will no longer be
abated but rather included in department budgets as cost of doing business.
However, internal charges within departments or between departments for special
programmatic reasons will still be abated. The later category includes
Sheriff's charges to Courts for bailiffs, chargebacks for staff resources (HR,
A/E, DAS fiscal, etc) and internal cost allocations within a department (i.e.,
charging director office costs to program divisions within a department.)
The trick is explaining why some things are abated and others not. I
understand the difference and it seems to me we have been using the abatements
for several different purposes. I am very comfortable with what we are doing,
we just need to be able to consisely explain it in a standard footnote.   We
can work on this together or the two of you can draft something and we can go
over it. Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks.

Public Safety and Law Enforcement Initiative
The Executive recommends:
• Providing almost $3.5 million for staffing and equipment for the Sheriff’s Department
Targeted Enforcement Unit to enhance patrols and public safety in high-need areas of the
County.
The recommended funding will provide for a Tactical Enforcement Unit
consisting of 25 deputy sheriffs, 2 sergeants and the addition of public safety vehicles.
• Providing approximately $860,000 levy to fully-fund the Sheriff’s Department five-member
Drug Enforcement Unit and the department’s High Intensity Drug Trafficking program
to combat illegal drug activities within Milwaukee County.
• A continued commitment of over $7.0 million for Airport Security by providing 59 Deputy
Sheriffs, 6 Sergeants, 1 Captain and four K9 Units for patrols and security duties at General
Mitchell International Airport.
• Providing $8.0 million, including almost $1.5 million in levy funds, for the Sheriff’s
Department’s 57-member Expressway Patrol Unit to ensure 24-hr highway safety and
emergency assistance to motorists. Funding for this program is partially offset by
approximately $2.7 million in citation revenue, $1.9 million in County Trunk Maintenance
revenue and $1.1 million in state revenue.
• Providing $3.0 million to municipalities to offset Emergency Medical Services costs,
$540,000 in capital funds for the replacement of outdated cardiac monitor/defibrillator
equipment on paramedic transport units operating within Milwaukee County and providing
over $2.8 million to support EMS communications and infrastructure.
• Enhanced law enforcement support by providing $167,000 in capital funding for the
replacement of drug testing equipment in the Medical Examiner’s toxicology laboratory.
•

Enhanced safety by providing $365,000 for digital video cameras and automatic vehicle
locator equipment in Sheriff department squad cars.

• Authorizing contracted prisoner transport services resulting in a savings of approximately
$300,000 annually.
• Enhanced Courthouse Security by providing over $9.5 million for bailiff services in the
Courts and $329,600 in capital funding for the installation of courtroom videoconferencing
equipment and bullet resistance glazing walls in selected courtrooms. These resources will
improve Courthouse security and reduce overtime costs.
• Enhanced use of electronic monitoring for work release inmates currently served at the
Community Correctional Center resulting improved monitoring and accountability of
offenders while in the community and a savings of approximately $2.2 million. This
initiative includes the creation of a Community Services Coordinator to transition CCC
offenders into available community-based treatment and job skills programs.
• Providing over $$693,000 in capital improvement funding for the House of Corrections,
including $250,000 for HOC security enhancements.

CArcher_Email3015439

• Increased funding of $110,310 for community-based rehabilitative and educational
programming services at the Community Justice Resource Center that serves as an
alternative to incarceration for participants.
• Funding for the opening of three additional dorms at the HOC to house a projected
increase in the state inmates. These costs are fully offset by the receipt of additional revenue
from the State.
• Closure of the Farm and Fish Hatchery at the House of Corrections for a savings of
$256,384 enabling the savings to be reallocated to higher priority public safety needs.
• Increased funding for the Firearm Offender Supervision Program to replace lost federal
funds and to increase the number of available slots from 60 slots in 2007 to 70 slots in 2008.
This program has been successful in diverting adjudicated delinquents from placement in
State facilities.
• Providing over $1 million in additional levy funding to cover the projected cost of State
charges for the placement of juveniles in State juvenile corrections facilities. Total State
charges are projected to increase by over $7 million compared to 2007 while projected state
youth aids revenue is projected to increase by approximately $6 million – leaving a gap of
$1 million to be funded from County property taxes.
• Continued support of over $13.8 million for intensive juvenile community-based
treatment and supervision services as an alternative to placing adjudicated juveniles in
costly State institutions. [Includes Wraparound, Level II Supervision Program and Serious
Chronic Offender Program]
• Creation of a Parks Patrol unit in the Parks Department to provide safety oversight,
coordination with the Sheriff’s Department and the resources necessary to enforce County
Parks rules and regulations.

recommended some changes in the language on the secure unit -- he suggests that
we refer to this as an "intensive management unit".

BHD 2008 BUDGET INITIATIVES

o The 2008 Recommended Budget includes $960,044 for a series of initiatives designed to
address the significant surge in volume at BHD’s Psychiatric Crisis Service and increased
safety concerns caused largely by the increased volume and increased acuity of patients
being served at the Mental Health Complex. Those initiatives are summarized as follows:
•

An appropriation of $370,049 is provided to allow BHD to increase its observation
(Obs) beds in the Crisis Service from 11 to 18, which will represent a significant
expansion of essential treatment capacity for PCS. This action will require the
creation of 8.6 FTE’s at a cost of $784,669, including salary and fringe benefits, an
additional appropriation of $31,200 for a peer support specialist, and an additional
appropriation of $320,680 for overtime to ensure 24/7, 365-day coverage. These
costs are offset by $766,500 of reimbursement revenue.

•

An appropriation of $53,839 is provided for 20 hours per week of nurse-prescriber
time for the Crisis Resource Center, which is scheduled to begin operation in October
2007. The Crisis Resource Center is a grant-funded initiative developed by the
Mental Health Task Force, community-based providers and BHD that is designed to
provide early intervention and sub-acute treatment to individuals who are at risk of,
but not in, psychiatric crisis. Every individual who can be kept away from PCS and
still receive appropriate treatment enables PCS and BHD’s acute inpatient hospital to
serve those who need crisis intervention and hospitalization.

•

An appropriation of $74,572 is provided to fund a utilization review nurse created per
the recommendation of BHD in mid-2007 to work exclusively in PCS to divert
patients on emergency detention and voluntary insured patients to private hospitals.

•

An appropriation of $92,719 is provided to fund 1.0 FTE psychologist to help staff
the Mobile Crisis Team (MCT) during evening shifts. The psychologist would
augment the work of the current MCT by being available 7 days a week working an
evening shift concurrent with MCT.

•

One position of Human Service Worker Supervisor is transferred from the
Wraparound program to enable seven-day process serving capability, which would
reduce court-related dismissals of patients and lead to shorter inpatient hospital stays.
This produces an increased appropriation of $84,292 in crisis services, which is fully
offset by a reduction of the same amount in the Wraparound program.

•

An additional appropriation of $224,573 is added to BHD’s security budget to sustain
increased security staff added in the fall of 2007 in response to increased incidents of
patient-to-staff violence in BHD’s Rehab Central units.

•

An appropriation of $60,000 is provided to allow all clinical staff in PCS, inpatient
and long-term operations to receive Challenging Behavior Training.

CArcher_Email3015447

•

The BHD Administrator is directed to convene a task force including BHD clinical
staff, managers, nurses’ union representatives and community mental health
advocates to discuss the pros and cons associated with creation of an intensive
management unit within the acute inpatient hospital and/or Rehab Central to address
the myriad of issues associated with patients who present particularly difficult and
sometimes violent behavior, and to also consider alternative approaches. The BHD
Administrator shall provide a report to the County Executive and Health and Human
Needs Committee by February 1, 2008, with recommendations on this issue.

In addition to these actions, BHD and the Disabilities Services Division have assigned the
highest priority to planning for the discharge of long-term cognitively disabled patients
from acute inpatient hospital beds they occupy to more appropriate community-based
care settings.

County Financial Management and Property Taxes
The Executive recommends:
• Property Tax Freeze: The 2007 Executive Budget proposal freezes property taxes for the fourth year in a
row. Executive’s proposed 2007 Budget:
 Includes the lowest tax rate in over 20 years: Under the Kelso proposed 2007 Budget, the property
tax rate dips to the lowest rate in over 20 years. If adopted by the County Board, the County tax rate
will have decreased by over 17% during the Kelso Administration.

 Continues to reverse the 20-year trend of government over-spending: During the Kelso
Administration, property taxes that had increased by over 9%, 10%, 11% per year have slowed to less
than 2.2% per year -- saving Brown County taxpayers more than $55 million over four years. The
2007 Budget, like Kelso’s previous three budgets, includes a true property tax freeze – when Brown
County residents open their tax bill in December they will see that, on average, they will pay the same
in County property taxes in 2007 as they did in 2004, 2005 and 2006.

 Does not rely on accounting tricks or the historic use of County reserves: The Kelso proposed
2007 Budget makes no use of general fund reserves – proposed 2007 spending is fully supported by
ongoing revenues for the first time in eight years.

 Does not burden future generations by borrowing beyond our means. The 2007 Budget includes
only modest bonding for County highway and road construction and maintenance, County-owned
facility investments and technology infrastructure. This is a fiscally responsible bonding plan that will
maintain the debt-to-total levy ratio of 12.8% to ensure debt payments do not burden future taxpayers.

Public Safety and Law Enforcement
The Executive recommends:
• Merging the 9-1-1 Communications Center into the Sheriff’s Department to leverage the resources of
both the Sheriff’s Department and the 9-1-1 Communication Center, provide improved back-up resources
and improve operational efficiencies.
• Providing $710,268 levy funds to fully fund the eight-member Drug Task Force to combat illegal drug
activities within Brown County. Funding includes $208,000 in payments to City of Green Bay for city
police officers assigned to the task force and $502,268 to fully fund five Brown County Sheriff’s Deputies
and one Lieutenant assigned to the task force.
• Developing Radio Interoperability plans to replace the aging 911 communication systems with new
technology to improve coverage and interoperability. This initiative includes developing detailed
specifications with users and a radio consultant to finalize functionality and project cost to allow bidding in
2007 or 2008 and system replacement of 25+ year old equipment.
• Full-funding of the overtime requirements of the Sheriff’s Department (almost $1.4 million in tax dollars)
to ensure public safety coverage.
• Authorizing the additional resources necessary, including added staffing, for 24-hour-per-day Countyprovided police services for the Village of Bellevue.
• Authorizing contracted prisoner transport services resulting in a savings of $193,369 annually.
• Providing additional funding ($50,000) to improve Courthouse Security staffing and minimize the use of
costly overtime expenses.

CArcher_Email3015452

• Additional levy funding of approximately $100,000 for the replacement of patrol and investigator
vehicles.
• Increased funding for contracted nursing staff at the jail resulting in overtime savings.
• The investment of $38,661 by Brown County for communication equipment upgrades, technology
equipment replacements and emergency radios to improve public safety communications within Brown
County and among the four-county FoxComm public safety network.
• Providing $10,000 levy funds to establish the HazMat Contingency Fund (special revenue fund) to cover
emergency expense in the event of a hazardous material spill in Brown County.
• Increased property tax support of approximately $1.6 million ($1.3 million Sheriff’s Department and
$300,000 Public Safety Communications) and maintenance of current staffing levels to ensure citizen
protection and continued quality of County emergency services.
• Increasing juror fees from $16 per day for jury service to $16 per half day and $32 per full day of service.
• The addition of $40,000 levy funds to increase guardian ad litem (GAL) compensation in family cases
from $60 per hour to the Wisconsin Supreme Court rate of $70 per hour.

Health and Human Services

position abolishes
Friday, September 14, 2007 11:17:25 AM

The narratives I have seen thus far look very good.
One thing I would like the narratives to make clear is the issue of position
abolishment. If we are abolishing a position that is funded and vacant for a
salary savings, the narrative should note it is funded and vacant. If we are
abolishing a position that was unfunded in 2007 and vacant, the narrative
should note this as well. To the extent possible, I want it clear that many,
if not most, of our position abolishment are vacant and a number were also
unfunded in 2007.
Thanks.

Here is what I thought we could use for the abatement explanation.

* In 2006 and 2007, these costs were included in other charging departmental
and non-departmental budgets. They were reflected here to show the “total”
amount of tax levy support for this Department. In 2008, these costs are
budgeted within the receiving department to show the tax levy cost in the
department.

2008 REQUESTED CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS
MILWAUKEE COUNTY
WP Equipment
An appropriation of $1,143,000 is requested to make improvements to purchase and replace Park owned
equipment that it uses in the day-to-day operations of the Parks Department. The details of this request
are as follows:

•

4 – 16 foot Mowing Units - Total Costs $240,000

These unit cuts on average 8 acres per hour. With decreased numbers of full time and
seasonal staff a machine of this size can cut up to 64 acres of turf in eight hour day. The
last machines were purchased in 2001-2002. These machines cut the large open spaces in
the system as well as the golf courses.
•

10 – 11 foot Mowing Units – Total Costs $400,000

The HR 51-11 series of rough mowers were purchased in the mid to late 90’s. These
machines all have over 3000 hours and in some cases 4 to 5 thousand hours. The
machines from the repair orders are getting very expensive. The 11-foot mowers can cut
up to 40 acres in an eight-hour day. They have more maneuverability and are used in
more confined space.
•

10 - 72 inch Turfcat Mowers – Total Costs $150,000

The 72-inch turfcats are the primary trim mowers. These mowers maintain the areas
under trees, within picnic areas, and places the larger out front mower can’t fit into.
•

12 - Greens Mowers – Total Costs $168,000

The greens mower is the most important piece of equipment on a golf course. We are
seeing an increase in hydraulic leaks, motor problems and cutting units wearing out. The
last machines were purchased in 2004 for Brown Deer. The Brown Deer movers were
moved down the next level course and so on. The current fleet of mowers is getting
expensive to maintain based on the age of the machine.
•

3 – Equipment Trailers – Total Costs $45,000

When working at satellite locations, on highway medians or transporting machines to
fleet maintenance trailers are being used. With today’s trailer safety standard it important
to purchase a few each year and surplus the oldest and most expensive to maintain.
•

10 Ball Diamond and Trap Rakes – Total Costs $120,000
With over 100 ball diamonds in the system and no dedicated / specialty machines to
maintain them it is important to have the right tools for the job. Currently, lawn tractors
and roto-tillers are used to level and drag the fields.

•

1 Tractor – Total Costs $20,000
Currently the golf division has one tractor. We have 5 tractor attachments that require the
use of a tractor.

Org charts--narratives
Saturday, September 15, 2007 9:35:29 AM
High

You guys are doing a great job in cranking out the narratives! I am beginning
to see a dim light at the end of the tunnel.

It occurred to me last night, when reviewing the Parks budget that we also need
to carefully review department submitted org charts to make sure they still
correspond the the decisions made by the CEX. The two biggest departments I
have concerns about are Parks and DTPW. We made significant positions changes
in these departments at the CEX level and we need to be sure positions we did
not approve or positions that we abolished are no longer reflected on the the
submitted org charts. I would like to ask each of you to get copies of the org
charts from Kat that are planned for inclusion in the budget and review them to
be sure they are consistent with CEX budget decisions. If you see org charts
that require modification, please come see me so we can discuss before
proceeding with any changes. Thanks alot!

I will be in shortly.

There is not much on your chair right now. I am caught up, but Vanessa needs
to do some work on the Courts that I reviewed today, so there was no sense
giving it to you. I left on your chair ECD, Medical Examiner, central service
allocation, contra depreciation, District Attorney.
I don't have the Sheriff or HOC yet or any of Chad's stuff. Dan has few he is
still working on and I have none of Pam's non-departmentals. I think Chad will
be in about 10:30 tomorrow so hopefully I will start getting his stuff. Pam
said she would not be in this weekend.
The bottom line is there is no need for you to come in in the morning. If you
are coming in, I would make it late afternoon.
I have to drive Linda back to Madison in the morning (we are having car
issues), but I will come right back and should be in the office about noon. I
am working on a version of budget in brief for Walker because I suspect we will
be asked for it. I am doing that in between reviewing narratives so I have
plenty to do. At some point, I will be asking you to help with it and look it
over, but not there yet.
If you want to call me at work tomorrow afternoon to check in that would be
fine. I think we are doing pretty good, but I will feel more confident once I
start seeing product from Chad and Pam.
Feel free to call me tomorrow and I will let you know where we are at.
Thanks.

I have just been doing dot point and sending them over. The problem is they
are not telling ahead of time what they are doing for the day so it is kind of
hit and miss. I suspect Transit may be next so I get those together today.
They really should give us their press priorities so we don't have to guess. I
have not seen much press on Public Safety, but they already have the dot points.

My guess is that he simply wants some bullet points on the topics he is talking
about that day, similar to what I gave him for BHD and you gave him for Parks.
I would assume we just need a few bullets on how we restored the community
centers and on what we restored for Transit and what is still being cut.

You should call before you come because right now I have nothing to review. I
am counting on Chad to come in late morning, but I don't want you coming in if
there is no product to give you. I am hoping I get a pile today but Molly gave
them until noon on Monday to finish up. Call me.

Thanks, Cindy. I think I'll just plan to come in around 3 or 4 and spend an
hour or so and then take home whatever I don't finish. Dan sent me DHHS so
I'll also get that done and back to him tomorrow.
If you need to talk before then feel free to give me a call.

There is not much on your chair right now. I am caught up, but Vanessa needs
to do some work on the Courts that I reviewed today, so there was no sense
giving it to you. I left on your chair ECD, Medical Examiner, central service
allocation, contra depreciation, District Attorney.
I don't have the Sheriff or HOC yet or any of Chad's stuff. Dan has few he is
still working on and I have none of Pam's non-departmentals. I think Chad will
be in about 10:30 tomorrow so hopefully I will start getting his stuff. Pam
said she would not be in this weekend.

CArcher_Email3015474

The bottom line is there is no need for you to come in in the morning. If you
are coming in, I would make it late afternoon.
I have to drive Linda back to Madison in the morning (we are having car
issues), but I will come right back and should be in the office about noon. I
am working on a version of budget in brief for Walker because I suspect we will
be asked for it. I am doing that in between reviewing narratives so I have
plenty to do. At some point, I will be asking you to help with it and look it
over, but not there yet.
If you want to call me at work tomorrow afternoon to check in that would be
fine. I think we are doing pretty good, but I will feel more confident once I
start seeing product from Chad and Pam.
Feel free to call me tomorrow and I will let you know where we are at.
Thanks.

Cindy,
It's my fault that the list was not shared with you. I failed to follow
through to insure it was a plan we were going to follow. Apparently we are, so
I've asked Fran to share a copy with you. Ed and or Jon may also have a copy
of the plan to share budget info with the JS. I have a hard copy in my office,
but don't know if I kept the electronic transmission. I don't know how to
access the document from my home. I think it came from the other side as a
suggestion, but didn't get a formal okay, thus didn't share it outside the
office. I'm sorry for putting you guys in a bad light. I was my goof up. I
am not in on Monday but will do formal mea culpa's when I see you.

SUMMARY OF COUNTY EXECUTIVE WALKER’S
2008 BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS

Public Safety and Law Enforcement
Sheriff’s Department
• Provide almost $3.5 million for staffing and equipment for the Sheriff’s Department
Targeted Enforcement Unit to enhance patrols and public safety in high-need areas of the
County.
The recommended funding will provide for a Tactical Enforcement Unit
consisting of 25 deputy sheriffs, 2 sergeants and the addition of public safety vehicles.
• Provide approximately $860,000 levy to fully-fund the Sheriff’s Department five-member
Drug Enforcement Unit and the department’s High Intensity Drug Trafficking program
to combat illegal drug activities within Milwaukee County.
• Provide over $7.0 million for Airport Security by providing 59 Deputy Sheriffs, 6
Sergeants, 1 Captain and four K9 Units for patrols and security duties at General Mitchell
International Airport.
• Provide $8.0 million, including almost $1.5 million in levy funds, for the Sheriff’s
Department’s 57-member Expressway Patrol Unit to ensure 24-hr highway safety and
emergency assistance to motorists. Funding for this program is partially offset by
approximately $2.7 million in citation revenue, $1.9 million in County Trunk Maintenance
revenue and $1.1 million in state revenue.
• Increase funding for law enforcement equipment by providing $365,000 for digital video
cameras and automatic vehicle locator equipment in Sheriff department squad cars.
• Streamline prisoner transport and provide taxpayer savings by authorizing contracted
prisoner transport services resulting in a savings of approximately $300,000 annually.

Emergency Medical Services (EMS)/Medical Examiner
• Increase resources for Emergency Medical Services (EMS) by providing $3.0 million to
municipalities to offset local EMS costs, $540,000 in capital funds for the replacement of
outdated cardiac monitor/defibrillator equipment on paramedic transport units operating
within Milwaukee County and providing over $2.8 million to support EMS communications
and infrastructure.
• Enhance law enforcement support by providing $167,000 in capital funding for the
replacement of drug testing equipment in the Medical Examiner’s toxicology laboratory.

CArcher_Email3015490

Courts
• Enhance Courthouse Security by providing over $9.5 million for bailiff services in the
Courts and $329,600 in capital funding for the installation of courtroom videoconferencing
equipment and bullet resistance glazing walls in selected courtrooms. These resources will
improve Courthouse security and reduce overtime costs.

House of Correction
• Implement the use of 27x7 monitoring of work release offenders currently served at the
Community Correctional Center resulting improved monitoring and accountability of
offenders while in the community and a savings of approximately $2.2 million. This
initiative includes the creation of a Community Services Coordinator to transition CCC
offenders into available community-based treatment and job skills programs.
• Provide over $693,000 in capital improvement funding for the House of Corrections,
including $250,000 for HOC security enhancements.
• Increase funding by $110,310 for community-based rehabilitative and educational
programming services at the Community Justice Resource Center that serves as an
alternative to incarceration for participants.
• Provide funding and staff to support the opening of three additional dorms at the HOC to
house a projected increase in the State inmates. These costs are fully offset by the receipt
of additional revenue from the State.
• Redirect existing resources towards higher priority public safety needs by closing the Farm
and Fish Hatchery at the House of Corrections for a savings of $256,384.

Human Services Juvenile Corrections
• Increase funding for the Firearm Offender Supervision Program to replace lost federal
funds and to increase the number of available slots from 60 slots in 2007 to 70 slots in 2008.
This program has been successful in diverting adjudicated delinquents from placement in
State facilities.
• Provide over $1 million in additional levy funding to cover the projected cost of State
charges for the placement of juveniles in State juvenile corrections facilities. Total State
charges are projected to increase by over $7 million compared to 2007 while projected state
youth aids revenue is projected to increase by approximately $6 million – leaving a gap of
$1 million to be funded from County property taxes.
• Maintain support of over $13.8 million for intensive juvenile community-based treatment
and supervision services as an alternative to placing adjudicated juveniles in costly State
institutions. [Includes Wraparound, Level II Supervision Program and Serious Chronic
Offender Program]

CArcher_Email3015491

increased acuity of patients being served at the Mental Health Complex. To address these
issues the 2008 Budget includes: [numbers below do not total to this dot point?]
− An appropriation of $370,049 to allow BHD to increase its observation beds in the
Crisis Service Unit from 11 to 18
− An additional 8.6 FTE positions at a cost of $784,669 for the Crisis Service Unit

CArcher_Email3015495

community-based providers and BHD that is designed to provide early intervention and
sub-acute treatment to individuals who are at risk of, but not in, psychiatric crisis. Every
individual who can be kept away from PCS and still receive appropriate treatment
enables PCS and BHD’s acute inpatient hospital to serve those who need crisis
intervention and hospitalization.
•

BHD in mid-2007 to work exclusively in PCS to divert patients on emergency detention
and voluntary insured patients to private hospitals.

during evening shifts. The psychologist would augment the work of the current MCT by
being available 7 days a week working an evening shift concurrent with MCT.

•

One position of Human Service Worker Supervisor is transferred from the
Wraparound program to enable seven-day process serving capability, which would
reduce court-related dismissals of patients and lead to shorter inpatient hospital stays.
This produces an increased appropriation of $84,292 in crisis services, which is fully
offset by a reduction of the same amount in the Wraparound program.

•

Provide $224,573 to BHD’s security budget to sustain increased security staff added in
the fall of 2007 in response to increased incidents of patient-to-staff violence in BHD’s
Rehab Central units.

•

Provide $60,000 to allow all clinical staff in PCS, inpatient and long-term operations to
receive Challenging Behavior Training.

•

Direct the BHD Administrator to convene a task force including BHD clinical staff,
managers, nurses’ union representatives and community mental health advocates to
discuss the pros and cons associated with creation of an intensive management unit
within the acute inpatient hospital and/or Rehab Central to address the myriad of issues
associated with patients who present particularly difficult and sometimes violent
behavior, and to also consider alternative approaches. The BHD Administrator shall
provide a report to the County Executive and Health and Human Needs Committee by
February 1, 2008, with recommendations on this issue. [CEX SHOULD NAME THIS
TASK FORCE]

•

In addition to these actions, BHD and the Disabilities Services Division will assigned the
highest priority to planning for the discharge of long-term cognitively disabled patients
from acute inpatient hospital beds they occupy to more appropriate community-based
care settings.

Pam, I know that James finished all of his capital narratives over the weekend
and left them with you to review. Please be sure that you direct you immediate
attention to getting your operating narratives (non-departmentals, etc) done
right away on Monday before you start on his capital narratives. The goal is
still to have all the operating narratives done by noon tomorrow (today :)) so
that Rob and I can have ample time to review them and Kat has time to format
them.

and Fish Hatchery at the House of Correction for a savings of $256,384.

Human Services Juvenile Corrections
• Increase funding for the Firearm Offender Supervision Program to replace lost federal

cost of State charges for the placement of juveniles in State juvenile corrections facilities.

SUMMARY OF COUNTY EXECUTIVE WALKER’S
2008 BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS

Public Safety and Law Enforcement
Sheriff’s Department
• Provide almost $3.5 million for staffing and equipment for the Sheriff’s Department
Targeted Enforcement Unit to enhance patrols and public safety in high-need areas of the
County.
The recommended funding will provide for a Tactical Enforcement Unit
consisting of 25 deputy sheriffs, 2 sergeants and the addition of public safety vehicles.
• Provide approximately $860,000 levy to fully-fund the Sheriff’s Department five-member
Drug Enforcement Unit and the department’s High Intensity Drug Trafficking program
to combat illegal drug activities within Milwaukee County.
• Provide more than $7.0 million for Airport Security by providing 59 Deputy Sheriffs, 6
Sergeants, 1 Captain and four K9 Units for patrols and security duties at General Mitchell
International Airport.
• Provide $8.0 million, including almost $1.5 million in levy funds, for the Sheriff’s
Department’s 57-member Expressway Patrol Unit to ensure 24-hr highway safety and
emergency assistance to motorists. Funding for this program is partially offset by
approximately $2.7 million in citation revenue, $1.9 million in County Trunk Maintenance
revenue and $1.1 million in state revenue.
• Increase funding for law enforcement equipment by providing $365,000 for digital video
cameras and automatic vehicle locator equipment in Sheriff department squad cars.
• Streamline prisoner transport and provide taxpayer savings by authorizing contracted
prisoner transport services resulting in a savings of approximately $300,000 annually.

Emergency Medical Services (EMS)
• Increase resources for Emergency Medical Services (EMS) by providing $540,000 in
capital funds for the replacement of outdated cardiac monitor/defibrillator equipment on
paramedic transport units operating within Milwaukee County. The Budget also maintains a
$3.0 million supplemental payment to municipalities to offset local EMS costs and more
than $2.8 million to support EMS communications and infrastructure.

Courts
• Enhance Courthouse Security by providing more than $9.5 million for bailiff services in
the Courts and $329,600 in capital funding for the installation of courtroom
videoconferencing equipment and bullet resistance glazing walls in selected courtrooms.
These resources will improve Courthouse security and reduce overtime costs.

House of Correction
• Implement the use of 24/7 monitoring of work release offenders currently served at the
Community Correctional Center (CCC), resulting in improved monitoring and
accountability of offenders while in the community and a savings of approximately $2.2
million. This initiative includes the creation of a Community Services Coordinator to
transition CCC offenders into available community-based treatment and job skills programs.
• Provide more than $693,000 in capital improvement funding for the House of Correction,
including $250,000 for HOC security enhancements.
• Increase funding by $110,310 for community-based rehabilitative and educational
programming services at the Community Justice Resource Center that serves as an
alternative to incarceration for participants.
• Provide funding and staff to support the opening of three additional dorms at the HOC to
house a projected increase in State inmates. These costs are fully offset by the receipt of
additional revenue from the State.
• Redirect existing resources towards higher priority public safety needs by closing the Farm
and Fish Hatchery at the House of Correction for a savings of $256,384.

Human Services Juvenile Corrections
• Increase funding for the Firearm Offender Supervision Program to replace lost federal
funds and to increase the number of available slots from 60 slots in 2007 to 70 slots in 2008.
This program has been successful in diverting adjudicated delinquents from placement in
State facilities.
• Provide more than $1 million in additional property tax levy funding to cover the projected
cost of State charges for the placement of juveniles in State juvenile corrections facilities.
Total State charges are projected to increase by over $7 million compared to 2007 while
projected state youth aids revenue is projected to increase by approximately $6 million –
leaving a gap of $1 million to be funded from County property taxes.
• Maintain expenditures of more than $13.8 million for intensive juvenile community-based
treatment and supervision services as an alternative to placing adjudicated juveniles in
costly State institutions. [Includes Wraparound, Level II Supervision Program and Serious
Chronic Offender Program]

Worker positions ($886,690), 6.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker 2 In-Charge positions
($399,183) and the creation of additional seasonal positions ($598,379). Costs are offset by
the abolishment of 31 vacant park maintenance workers and approximately 50 FTE filled
park maintenance workers resulting in an overall savings of $2.9 million.
• Authorize the Parks Director to continue to negotiate with the Friends of Hoyt Park and
community-based organizations interested in re-opening the Hales Corners pool, to allow for
continued community-based funding and management of both the Hoyt Park and Hales
Corners pools.

course enhancement fee dedicated to capital improvements of County golf courses. The
golf course enhancement fee is projected to generate approximately $300,000 that is applied
to capital debt service costs.
• Provide funding of $200,000 to allow the Parks Department to participate in the
implementation of the Guaranteed Performance Contracting initiative designed to
improve energy efficiency and promote environmental sustainability throughout Milwaukee
County. As part of the pilot, Parks Department facilities will retrofit or replace energyconsuming equipment to reduce energy consumption and realize energy savings. Project
costs are offset by a projected energy savings equal to the project costs.

Tom and I can put something together.
Scrap this one   "Secure a stable and continuing, dedicated funding source to
support the department" - we know the Exec supports a separate Parks district, but this may go too far
Change "Develop a consistent program of law enforcement presence and regulation
enforcement in the Parks"
Use this instead
"Work with the Sheriff's Office to develop a program of law enforcement
presence and regulation enforcement in the Parks"

        2008 Budget Questions





Tom/Ed:
As I think you're aware, we have asked each department to develop a set of
objectives to include in the budget per the strategic planning resolution
adopted by the Board a few months ago. Two questions for you:
1. Your office has not submitted any objectives to us. Would you like to
develop those, or should we? For reference, I'm forwarding to you the County
Board's objectives in a separate e-mail. We need to have these done by early
next week.
2. Sue Black's objectives for Parks included two that we were not sure the
County Executive would support. They are as follows:
"Secure a stable and continuing, dedicated funding source to support the
CArcher_Email3015527

department" -- we know the Exec supports a separate Parks district, but this
may go too far
"Develop a consistent program of law enforcement presence and regulation
enforcement in the Parks" -- we know the Exec supports the new Parks patrols,
but this objective may anger the Sheriff and also go too far
Please let me know if you would like these modified or deleted altogether.
Parks developed a handful of other objectives that are fine, so these are not
needed.

narrative consistency
Monday, September 17, 2007 1:55:04 PM
High

To all,
I realize we are at varying stages of narrative review and edits. They are all
looking very, very good!
For the sake of consistency there are several things I am noticing.
Positions -- should be noted:   2.0 FTE Fiscal and Management Analyst I
positions.
Salary and fringe costs -- I have seen this presented in a number of ways -when referring to the cost of added or deleted or unfunded positions the
narrative should refer to active fringe cost. Abolish 6.0 FTE park maintenance
worker II positions for a $474,000 salary and active fringe cost savings.
Create 4.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker positions for a salary and active fringe
cost of $344,500
I am not so much concerned about how the sentence is worked, but rather a clear
and consistent description of how we are costing out positions to include only
active fringe. Some of us are referring to "fringe benefit cost", "salary and
social security", "fringe, excluding legacy cost", etc.
Personal Services expenditures -- to avoid confusion about the charts that show
funded and unfunded positions and inconsistencies about salary increases due to
wage increases. I am requesting that this dot point simply state "Personal
Services Expenditures without fringe benefits increase by $1,105,147 from X in
2007 to Y in 2008. drop everything else.
Explanation of OPEB funding -- Some narratives still have lengthy descriptions
of the OPEB accounting requirements that were carried forward from the 2007
budget. Alex and Molly will work to take out language that is on longer
required so that our dot points on this topic are consistent.
Abatement change for charging departments -- I have seen a couple of excellent
narratives explaining this change (IMSD, Fleet). Alex and Molly will work to
develop a consistent narrative for inclusion in each of the charging
departments.
Abatement change for receiving departments -- Some narratives have this in and
some do not. Alex and Molly will develop standard language that indicates the
change made, the fact that the levy was redistributed to departments and this
change will more accurately reflect the true cost of department operations.
NOTE: I understand that we have a foot note on the abatement change, but the
change is so significant I would like the change pointed out again in the
narratives as I have seen in some of the documents.

CArcher_Email3015529

Ordering of standard dot points -- Last I counted, we have 5 standard dot
points that will appear in all department narratives. These should be at the
end of the narratives. While I am not wedded to an order (below is suggested
order), they should appear at the end of the narratives in the same order.
Molly will determine for large departments if these need to appear at the end
of each division or at the end of the whole thing.
        Capital narrative referring to capital budget (some departments)
        Ability to fill unfunded positions
        ECP steps performance
        Change in abatement policy
        Requirement to operate within budget
Let me know if you think I have missed anything. For those narratives that are
already done Kat, Molly, Alex and I will pick the changes up in the editing
process. If you are working on narratives, please note the above.
I apologize for not having this all sorted out ahead of time. Being my first
time through, I had to see things before I realized the issues we might
encounter. Thank you for your patience. It will all be so much easier next
time around! :) Keep up the good work....I see a celebration in our future...

PS -- don't forget to look at org charts...

Yes. The amount is about $8,100 less than the 2007 adopted amount. I did not
adjust the 2008 budget amount from the $980,000 increase. Obviously, I will
adjust the number if I am directed to do so.

sheriff budget
Monday, September 17, 2007 7:04:18 PM

Rob,
The budget table for the Sheriff indicates the unfunding or abolishment of 50
FTE and the creation of 12 FTE for a net reduction of 38 FTE. Of the
abolish/unfunds the Sheriff's department proposed in decision item #23
unfunding 23.0 vacant FTE. The Sheriff's department agreed to unfund 6.0 FTE
deputy sheriff's in the General Investigative Services Division [decision item
#7], 15.0 FTE deputies are abolished due to the contracting out of
transportation (decision item #16) and we had originally recommended abolishing
5.0 FTE clerical related to the Jail booking interface, but the CEX instructed
us to unfund them instead (due to agreement with Sheriff?). Finally, the
Sheriff's department proposed abolishing 1.0 FTE deputy sheriff sergeant
position and creating the data analyst (abolish/create) -- the budget includes
this abolish create. The above actions total the 50.0 FTE unfunds/abolishes.
Per our conversation before you left, and to ensure we remain in line with
agreements with Carr, I have asked Vanessa to unfund (not abolish) any
positions that they proposed for unfunding, but we recommended for
abolishment. To be clear, Vanessa was never told of any decisions that
modified the CEX decisions related to the recommended abolishments, but given
your concern about communications with the Sheriff's department, we will just
change them back to unfunded as they had originally requested since there will
be no fiscal impact of doing so.
I met with Vanessa and she is going to try and clarify the position actions in
the narrative so it is clear what is vacant, clear what is tied to elimination
of transportation and clear that some of the positions proposed for abolishment
will be reallocated to the Jail. Once she has revised it, I will review it
again and then send it on to you.

I don't think Rob and I have seen narratives for
         State exempt computer aid
         Debt issue expense
         Debt service
         Fringe benefits (I am assuming that Pam is writing up POBs either here
or under debt service?)
         A&E
I have the following on my desk
        Aging CMO (Rob has already reviewed it)
        Parks (Rob has reviewed it. I will review for 2nd time)
        State Shared Taxes
        HOC
I gave Rob DHSS and BHD to review again before I review.
Vanessa is doing some more work on the Sheriff's Department. I will review
again before it goes to Rob.
There is no food in the Hunger task force boxes downstairs, so I am going home
now to eat. :)

I don't like the sentence that refers to how much of their deficit is due to
the tax freeze. I suspect you are referring to their initial tax levy target.
What is missing from this and press release is the fact that the CEX budget
pumped in $4.0 million to keep routes. Having said that, their levy target
seems irrelevant. Again, their projected deficit was $10 million (not $10.8)
and it had nothing to do with Walkers tax freeze!
Note the $4.0 million is $2.1 million is tax levy and $1.9 million is family
care money. Not that I think you need to get that technical because new money
is new money that the CEX put in.

George - The following is a draft for the county exec's message in this week's
newsletter. Can you please read it over for accuracy and let me know if it's
good to go? Thanks,

Here are a number of things to remember about the transit proposal that will be
in the 2008 county budget:
- When I held public budget briefings people told me that the most important
thing was keeping routes that connect them to jobs. Our plan restores all of
the routes that were proposed to be eliminated in the transit budget.
- The average cost per rider in the system is $2.40. That means that the system
(and, in turn, the property taxpayers) are still picking up $.40 of every ride.
CArcher_Email3015566

- Those that need the system the most are not hit by the cash box fare
increase. Weekly pass discounts and discounts for seniors, students and people
with disabilities remain.
- Some will argue that a sales tax is needed to support the system. Still, the
story notes that Chicago has some of the highest fares in the country (now
$2.50). Interesting since Chicago already has a 1% sales tax that does not
collect enough to fund the system (they are attempting to move it to 1.25%).
- Wage and benefit costs are driving the tough choices in transit. For 2008,
transit had to cover $10.8 million. Of that, only $800,000 was because of my
property tax freeze. The remaining $10 million was to cover wage, health care,
retirement and fuel costs. Unless someone can control these costs, transit will
continue to face challenges – with or without a sales tax or fare increases.

Here is another version (per Cindy's good comments):

Here are a number of things to remember about the transit proposal that will be
in the 2008 county budget:
- When I held public budget briefings people told me that the most important
thing was keeping routes that connect them to jobs. Our plan restores all of
the routes that were proposed to be eliminated in the transit budget. To
restore those routes, I had to come up with $4 million from other places in the
budget.
- The average cost per rider in the system is $2.40. That means that the system
(and, in turn, the property taxpayers) are still picking up $.40 of every ride.

- Those that need the system the most are not hit by the cash box fare
increase. Weekly pass discounts and discounts for seniors, students and people
with disabilities remain.
- Some will argue that a sales tax is needed to support the system. Still, the
story notes that Chicago has some of the highest fares in the country (now
$2.50). Interesting since Chicago already has a 1% sales tax that does not
collect enough to fund the system (they are attempting to move it to 1.25%).
- Wage and benefit costs are driving the tough choices in transit. Regardless
of any tax freeze target, transit had to cover $10 million in costs for 2008.
The $10 million figure includes wage, health care, retirement and fuel costs.
Unless someone can control these costs, transit will continue to face
challenges – with or without a sales tax or fare increases.

I forgot to do the freeze on depts for purchases orders that were cancelled
during July and August that were older than a year old. I am going to send
them an excel file today, along with a notice that these funds have now been
frozen. Do you want to see the excel file first, or should I just send it out.

We need to put something in the DAS narrative outlining our 'Accounting
Initiative' that we promised the Board we would include in the 2008 budget. I
have tried to go back through all the documents to compile actions we are
recommending that will improve accounting and fiscal functions across the
County. I need you help. For those items I have listed, please fill in the
blank from your department's rationale regarding what these positions will do
(i.e., how will the state of county finances be improved?). Also, please think
about your assignments and add anything I may have left off.
Since this is for inclusion in the DAS narrative, your prompt attention is most
appreciated. :)
PS -- Manske, please look at what I wrote for your items because I just made it
up. :) Please send your suggestions to both Rob and I.

IV position in DAS-Economic and Community Development during 2007. The 2008
budget recommends the following additional actions to enhance central accounting and
fiscal oversightadjustments:

activities and to provide training and assistance to departmental fiscal staff.
2. Increased professional services funding of $73,500 for use by the County
Controller in securing specialized accounting services as needed.
3. Creation of 1.0 FTE Capital Finance Planning Analyst position in DAS (noted
above) to ensure adequate resources to account for bond proceeds, monitor
financing of capital projects and complete due diligence on financing proposals as
required by County Ordinance.
In addition, DAS-Fiscal Affairs has worked with departments to review their accounting
and budget staff capacity. The following additional position actions are contained in
departmental budgets to enhance fiscal and accounting activities:
4. Creation of 1.0 FTE Accountant 1 in the County Treasurer’s Office to
________________. See County Treasurer budget).
5. Creation of 1.0 FTE Quality Assurance Specialist in the Department on Aging
Care Management Organization to _______________________ (See Department
on Aging budget

Management Organization to assure ________________ (See Department on
Aging budget). NOTE: THEY ALSO ADDED A PERFORMANCE EVALUATOR AND A CONTRACT
SERVICE COORDINATOR – should these be included as well???

Summary of County Executive’s

2008 Budget Highlights

CArcher_Email3015584

SUMMARY OF COUNTY EXECUTIVE WALKER’S
2008 BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS

Public Safety and Law Enforcement
Sheriff’s Department
• Provide almost $3.5 million for staffing and equipment for the Sheriff’s Department
Targeted Enforcement Unit to enhance patrols and public safety in high-need areas of the
County.
The recommended funding will provide for a Tactical Enforcement Unit
consisting of 25 deputy sheriffs, 2 sergeants and the addition of public safety vehicles.
• Provide approximately $860,000 levy to fully-fund the Sheriff’s Department five-member
Drug Enforcement Unit and the department’s High Intensity Drug Trafficking program
to combat illegal drug activities within Milwaukee County.
• Provide more than $7.0 million for Airport Security by providing 59 Deputy Sheriffs, 6
Sergeants, 1 Captain and four K9 Units for patrols and security duties at General Mitchell
International Airport.
• Provide $8.0 million, including almost $1.5 million in levy funds, for the Sheriff’s
Department’s 57-member Expressway Patrol Unit to ensure 24-hr highway safety and
emergency assistance to motorists. Funding for this program is partially offset by
approximately $2.7 million in citation revenue, $1.9 million in County Trunk Maintenance
revenue and $1.1 million in state revenue.
• Increase funding for law enforcement equipment by providing $365,000 for digital video
cameras and automatic vehicle locator equipment in Sheriff department squad cars.
• Streamline prisoner transport and provide taxpayer savings by authorizing contracted
prisoner transport services resulting in a savings of approximately $300,000 annually.

Emergency Medical Services (EMS)
• Increase resources for Emergency Medical Services (EMS) by providing $540,000 in
capital funds for the replacement of outdated cardiac monitor/defibrillator equipment on
paramedic transport units operating within Milwaukee County. The Budget also maintains a
$3.0 million supplemental payment to municipalities to offset local EMS costs and more
than $2.8 million to support EMS communications and infrastructure.

CArcher_Email3015585

Courts
• Enhance Courthouse Security by providing more than $9.5 million for bailiff services in
the Courts and $329,600 in capital funding for the installation of courtroom
videoconferencing equipment and bullet resistance glazing walls in selected courtrooms.
These resources will improve Courthouse security and reduce overtime costs.

House of Correction
• Implement the use of 24/7 monitoring of work release offenders currently served at the
Community Correctional Center (CCC), resulting in improved monitoring and
accountability of offenders while in the community and a savings of approximately $2.2
million. This initiative includes the creation of a Community Services Coordinator to
transition CCC offenders into available community-based treatment and job skills programs.
• Provide more than $693,000 in capital improvement funding for the House of Correction,
including $250,000 for HOC security enhancements.
• Increase funding by $110,310 for community-based rehabilitative and educational
programming services at the Community Justice Resource Center that serves as an
alternative to incarceration for participants.
• Provide funding and staff to support the opening of three additional dorms at the HOC to
house a projected increase in State inmates. These costs are fully offset by the receipt of
additional revenue from the State.
• Redirect existing resources towards higher priority public safety needs by closing the Farm
and Fish Hatchery at the House of Correction for a savings of $256,384.

Human Services Juvenile Corrections
• Increase funding for the Firearm Offender Supervision Program to replace lost federal
funds and to increase the number of available slots from 60 slots in 2007 to 70 slots in 2008.
This program has been successful in diverting adjudicated delinquents from placement in
State facilities.
• Provide more than $1 million in additional property tax levy funding to cover the projected
cost of State charges for the placement of juveniles in State juvenile corrections facilities.
Total State charges are projected to increase by over $7 million compared to 2007 while
projected state youth aids revenue is projected to increase by approximately $6 million –
leaving a gap of $1 million to be funded from County property taxes.
• Maintain expenditures of more than $13.8 million for intensive juvenile community-based
treatment and supervision services as an alternative to placing adjudicated juveniles in
costly State institutions. [Includes Wraparound, Level II Supervision Program and Serious
Chronic Offender Program]

CArcher_Email3015586

Worker positions ($886,690), 6.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker 2 In-Charge positions
($399,183) and the creation of additional seasonal positions ($598,379). Costs are offset by
the abolishment of 31 vacant park maintenance workers and approximately 50 FTE filled
park maintenance workers resulting in an overall savings of $2.9 million.
• Authorize the Parks Director to continue to negotiate with the Friends of Hoyt Park and
community-based organizations interested in re-opening the Hales Corners pool, to allow for
continued community-based funding and management of both the Hoyt Park and Hales
Corners pools.

implementation of the Guaranteed Performance Contracting initiative designed to
improve energy efficiency and promote environmental sustainability throughout Milwaukee

This is correct except I think you meant to say "219", not "218".
Everyone, please work off of Anita's attahced chart and not the narrative that
was included in the orignal transit request. The chart is correct and the top
third is what the CEX restored. The partial route eliminations and
reorganizations shown on the bottom half of the chart represent what MTS
proposed and the CEX included in the 2008 budget.

FranAs I mentioned on the telephone, Cindy Archer called me this morning because
there was a discrepancy between the budget write-up and the list of routes to
be eliminated. I wanted to make sure that you have the correct information if
you are contacted by the press. The following routes which were proposed to be
completely eliminated as part of our budget submission will be restored in the
County Executive's budget: Routes 218,59,45,47,68,64,87,28,43,89,48.
We are working on revising the budget write-up to reflect the changes that have
CArcher_Email3015593

been made. Bill Roberts will have to adjust the cost and revenue numbers to
reflect all of the changes, including the restoration of paratransit services.
Attached is a revised table showing the restored routes and the route segments
that are still slated for elimination or reorganization. If you have any
questions, please contact me. Anita

I would like to weave into my speech some shots at the state. Can I get some
details on the cost of the JCI rate for the various version of the budget (i.e.
Governor, JFC, Senate, Assembly, Conference Committee)? Also, I would like to
have some numbers on the lost of IM funds over the past four years.
Any other areas of reduction in funding from the state would be good too.
Thanks.

Emergency Medical Services (EMS)
·        Increase resources for Emergency Medical Services (EMS) by providing
$540,000 in capital funds for the replacement of outdated cardiac
monitor/defibrillator equipment on paramedic transport units operating within
Milwaukee County. The Budget also maintains a $3.0 million supplemental
payment to municipalities to offset local EMS costs and more than $2.8 million
to support EMS communications and infrastructure.

We will be asking for 30 Zoll "E" series monitor defibrillators. The monitors
will go to the ALS units at the eight municipalities MC has contracts with as
well as to the MC EMS Education Center to continue to educate our nationally
respected paramedics.
Outcome measurement information:

The Zoll "E" series monitor / defibrillators will provide the paramedics with
on-scene (real-time) visual feedback as to the quality of they CPR that is
being performed by the EMS providers (ALS or BLS).
The ability to monitor the quality of CPR and to provide real-time feedback
to EMS providers while they are performing CPR has been adopted by the American
Heart Association as a new standard of care.
Studies have shown that real-time feedback to EMS providers improves the
quality of chest compressions and ventillations being provided during
cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
The Zoll "E" series monitor/defibrillators will also gather and transmit data
regarding the quality of CPR being done as well as ECGs that are acquired as
part of caring for a patient experiencing cardiac related emergencies.
This information will be used by MC EMS to adjust education and policies to
continue to provide the highest quality cardiac care possible in the
out-of-hospital setting.

        Media followup on transit





Cindy Fox6 interviewed exec on transit earlier and has several followup questions:
1. The proposed rate increase is for daily rate only, the passes for
weekly/elderly/disabled/students are not going up. YES
2. Is there a monthly pass , and if so, did it stay at same rate? WE ONLY HAVE
WEEKLY PASSES AND IT STAYED THE SAME
3. The hike up to $2.00 puts rate in top range in nation. Exec said Chicago at
$2.50? DON'T KNOW
Fares that did NOT increase are :
        Adult weekly pass
        Adult ticket book
        Student special weekly pass
        UPAS (college pass)
        Commuter value pass

As of now, I am caught up. I left you A&E, Offset to internal service charges,
debt issue expense and state exempt computer aid.
I have not yet seen the rewrite Sheriff or the Courts, nor have I seen Property
Taxes. Also, the narrative in Transit was wrong in terms of Routes so that is
still being worked on.
Tomorrow we will give the CEX the narratives from the other email. I will
re-review them especially since we made significant edits to some (i.e.,
Parks). Let me know if you want to see them again before they go to CEX.

I am concerned that you left tonight without finishing your operating
narratives and getting your capital narratives in. . Operating narratives were
suppose to be done for first review by noon on Monday and we agreed the
capital narratives would be done by the end of today. I have finished review
of most operating narratives and am ready to begin review of capital
narratives.
Debt service needs work, I am still waiting for the re-write of the POB
language in the fringe budget and I have yet to see the property tax budget.
You should plan on staying tomorrow until all the above is complete, including
final reviews by Rob, Molly, Kat and me. Please focus first on the operating
stuff -- fringe budget, property tax budget and debt service budget first.

status -- final review
Tuesday, September 18, 2007 8:27:27 PM

Late tomorrow afternoon, Kat will print the 'final' narratives for us to look
at one more time. It will go to the printer late Friday afternoon with a proof
returned on Monday. Very few changes can be made to the proof.
By 1:00 tomorrow, all narratives should be considered final with any remaining
edits into Kat. She will make the final edits and print for them us to review
for the last time. You should review them one last time before you leave
tomorrow.
Thanks!

Re: narratives for CEX review
Wednesday, September 19, 2007 9:27:41 AM

Once these go to CEX I consider them pretty much final. They will look at them
the same time we are looking at them for the last time. If we get them over
there by noon today, I will tell them I need them back first thing in the
moring. I will probably just highligh the sections I think they need to look
at to make it easier for them. Again, they are only quicly reviewing
narratives. I don't really expect much to change, if anything.
The main part of the DAS narrative they need to look at is the stratgeic
planning section. It is ok, if we send DAS over with blanks in the accounting
initiative.

Rob and Cindy,
A few notes:
I have substantial edits to make on transit (I will be working with Chad on
this).
Vanessa is still reviewing Sheriff, there will likely be changes.
Ed has not provided me with objectives for the CEX budget.
I have put in the objectives info in the DAS budget, but I am still waiting for
the blanks to be filled in on the accounting initiative.

CArcher_Email3015617

Considering the above, I would like to have the narratives listed below
completed no later than 10:30am (hopefully they will be done sooner). How much
time will we be giving the Exec's office to review?

Here are the budgets I propose to take to the CEX in AM for review:
        Parks
        Sheriff
        Transit
        CEX
        ECD
        HOC
        Zoo
Are there any others? What about DAS (strategic planning)?
I expect Kat will be far enought along on edits that these will be in good
enough shape for me to take over. I would make set for Ed, Nardelli and Scott.
Ed/Tom are there others you are interested in reveiwing?

All of the edits are in the system. Tomorrow will be spent by Molly, analysts
and Kat cross checking numbers and running final schedules. I have asked Kat
to print you and I off one more complete set now that all the edits are in. I
don't expect you to proof them again, but I know I will scan through them one
last time for my own comfort level. These will be printed while we are at
Finance in the morning.
The only remaining budget that we have not signed off on and that still needs
to go over to CEX is the fringe budget with the final POB language. I expect
Scott will review it as soon as his items are done at Finance in the morning
and then it can be merged into the fringe budget for one last review.
Thanks for staying tonight and helping with the reviews. It made me feel
better to know that you also looked at them one last time.
See you in the morning and let's hope for an uneventful Finance meeting.

One middle of the night thought: you and I have edited narratives to ensure
that major State revenue estimates (Courts, Transit, GTA, Youth Aids, Shared
Revenue) are explained. I'm concerned that when I wrote in "based on the JFC
budget" this was simply included but the analyst didn't double check to see if
it's correct. Could you make sure they understand how the departments came up
with their State revenue projections and that we're accurate in this respect?

All of the edits are in the system. Tomorrow will be spent by Molly, analysts
and Kat cross checking numbers and running final schedules. I have asked Kat
to print you and I off one more complete set now that all the edits are in. I
don't expect you to proof them again, but I know I will scan through them one
last time for my own comfort level. These will be printed while we are at
Finance in the morning.
The only remaining budget that we have not signed off on and that still needs
CArcher_Email3015634

to go over to CEX is the fringe budget with the final POB language. I expect
Scott will review it as soon as his items are done at Finance in the morning
and then it can be merged into the fringe budget for one last review.
Thanks for staying tonight and helping with the reviews. It made me feel
better to know that you also looked at them one last time.
See you in the morning and let's hope for an uneventful Finance meeting.

        Chapter 51 issues






Last night I went before the South Milwaukee Common Council regarding the
Chapter 51 issues. The Common Council & Mayor are very supportive and have
agreed to address this issue with the County Supervisor from my area. The City
Attorney advised that this issue should be dealt with ASAP because the County
budget is due soon. He felt that if we waited until the ICC meeting and then
waited for this to be addressed by the ICC we may be too late addressing our
concerns because the budget would already be passed. My City Attorney
suggested that all Chiefs contact their Mayors and Common Councils and set up
meetings with your County Supervisors addressing the failure of the County to
properly attend to the needs of a Chapter 51 subject according to the State
Statute.
Just thought I would pass on the information.
Thanks
Ann

middle of the night...
Friday, September 21, 2007 6:19:32 AM
High

Now it is my turn. I woke up in the middle of the night thinking about the CCC
and how sensitive the CEX was about saying we were 'closing' it. If I recall
correctly isn't there an ordinance that list 11 crimes that in which ES is
prohibited? If I am correct, for the press' (public) sake, do you think we
should mention that in the narrative? Specifically state that inmates serving
time for (list of crimes) will not be eligible for the ES program per County
Ordinance? My fear is that those against this proposal may go so far as to say
the CEX is soft on crime and his rational will get lost in the rhetoric.

If you agree and you are there before I am, can you have Vanessa add it? And
then I think the CEX office should read it one more time. Also, if I am
correct, I should add this to the budget in brief highlights.

parking fee increases
Friday, September 21, 2007 9:32:53 AM

Rob, I talked to Jack and the Facilities request did include parking rate
increases. We did not brief the CEX on this policy item. It has an
approximate $15,000 revenue impact. Jack said he could live with a $15K hole.
Rather than going back to the CEX and taking on political fall out that would
come on this, I told Chad to delete the parking increases from the budget. The
narrative will simply state that revenues have decreased due to a technical
correction from the 2007 budget. [The technical correction from the 2007
budget was that DAS assumed revenue from the Pabst lot which was sold].
Good catch. I did ask Chad about this twice.

I called Eberle and asked him to hold the public annoucnements about public
safety until we resolved the issue of the 11 crimes. He wanted the crimes.
They want to list them. I told them they needed to talk to Malone before they
make that decision. I think Ed is coming down to talk to Malone.

analyst overtime
Friday, September 21, 2007 10:07:21 AM

A month or so ago you mentioned paying out the overtime for analysts. The look
you saw on my face was not that I do not support that notion, but rather do we
have the money. When I got here paid out a fair amount of overtime from
surplus funds and I am more than willing to do it now. The issue is, how much
is it, do we have the money and has Scott included our surplus in this
quarterly report? Last time Alex did a salary projection for me and I paid out
what the surplus could support. I am more than willing to do that, but before
we make promises to analysts, we need to answer the above three questions. I
am even willing to approach Rob about transferring surplus from other DAS
divisions if we don't have enough. Again, I don't know how much we are talking
about and in turn if it would have a material impact on Scott's quarterly.
Assuming it is not material in terms of the County's bottom line and we have
it, I have no problem proceeding.
Get back to me when you have time on your thoughts.

Is this the final version of the Public Safety Package? If so, we will give it
to Steve today for a story on Monday:

SUMMARY OF COUNTY EXECUTIVE WALKER’S
2008 BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS

Public Safety and Law Enforcement

CArcher_Email3015647

Sheriff’s Department
· Provide almost $3.5 million for staffing and equipment for the Sheriff’s
Department Targeted Enforcement Unit to enhance patrols and public safety in
high-need areas of the County.    The recommended funding will provide for a
Tactical Enforcement Unit consisting of 25 deputy sheriffs, 2 sergeants and the
addition of public safety vehicles.
· Provide approximately $860,000 levy to fully-fund the Sheriff’s Department
five-member Drug Enforcement Unit and the department’s High Intensity Drug
Trafficking program to combat illegal drug activities within Milwaukee County.
· Provide more than $7.0 million for Airport Security by providing 59 Deputy
Sheriffs, 6 Sergeants, 1 Captain and four K9 Units for patrols and security
duties at General Mitchell International Airport.
· Provide $8.0 million, including almost $1.5 million in levy funds, for the
Sheriff’s Department’s 57-member Expressway Patrol Unit to ensure 24-hr highway
safety and emergency assistance to motorists. Funding for this program is
partially offset by approximately $2.7 million in citation revenue, $1.9
million in County Trunk Maintenance revenue and $1.1 million in state revenue.
· Increase funding for law enforcement equipment by providing $365,000 for
digital video cameras and automatic vehicle locator equipment in Sheriff
department squad cars.
· Streamline prisoner transport and provide taxpayer savings by authorizing
contracted prisoner transport services resulting in a savings of approximately
$300,000 annually.

Emergency Medical Services (EMS)
· Increase resources for Emergency Medical Services (EMS) by providing $540,000
in capital funds for the replacement of outdated cardiac monitor/defibrillator
equipment on paramedic transport units operating within Milwaukee County. The
Budget also maintains a $3.0 million supplemental payment to municipalities to
offset local EMS costs and more than $2.8 million to support EMS
communications and infrastructure.

Courts
· Enhance Courthouse Security by providing more than $9.5 million for bailiff
services in the Courts and $329,600 in capital funding for the installation of
courtroom videoconferencing equipment and bullet resistance glazing walls in
selected courtrooms. These resources will improve Courthouse security and
reduce overtime costs.

House of Correction

CArcher_Email3015648

· Implement the use of 24/7 monitoring of work release offenders currently
served at the Community Correctional Center (CCC), resulting in improved
monitoring and accountability of offenders while in the community and a savings
of approximately $2.2 million. This initiative includes the creation of a
Community Services Coordinator to transition CCC offenders into available
community-based treatment and job skills programs.
· Provide more than $693,000 in capital improvement funding for the House of
Correction, including $250,000 for HOC security enhancements.
· Increase funding by $110,310 for community-based rehabilitative and
educational programming services at the Community Justice Resource Center that
serves as an alternative to incarceration for participants.
· Provide funding and staff to support the opening of three additional dorms at
the HOC to house a projected increase in State inmates. These costs are fully
offset by the receipt of additional revenue from the State.
· Redirect existing resources towards higher priority public safety needs by
closing the Farm and Fish Hatchery at the House of Correction for a savings of
$256,384.

Human Services Juvenile Corrections
· Increase funding for the Firearm Offender Supervision Program to replace lost
federal funds and to increase the number of available slots from 60 slots in
2007 to 70 slots in 2008. This program has been successful in diverting
adjudicated delinquents from placement in State facilities.
· Provide more than $1 million in additional property tax levy funding to cover
the projected cost of State charges for the placement of juveniles in State
juvenile corrections facilities. Total State charges are projected to increase
by over $7 million compared to 2007 while projected state youth aids revenue is
projected to increase by approximately $6 million – leaving a gap of $1 million
to be funded from County property taxes.
· Maintain expenditures of more than $13.8 million for intensive juvenile
community-based treatment and supervision services as an alternative to placing
adjudicated juveniles in costly State institutions. [Includes Wraparound,
Level II Supervision Program and Serious Chronic Offender Program]

Parks Department
· Creation of a Parks Patrol unit in the Parks Department to provide citizen
safety oversight, improve coordination with local law enforcement and the
Sheriff’s Department and encourage voluntary compliance with County Parks rules
and regulations.

SUMMARY OF COUNTY EXECUTIVE WALKER’S
2008 BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS

Public Safety and Law Enforcement
Sheriff’s Department
• Provide almost $3.5 million for staffing and equipment for the Sheriff’s Department
Targeted Enforcement Unit to enhance patrols and public safety in high-need areas of the
County.
The recommended funding will provide for a Tactical Enforcement Unit
consisting of 25 deputy sheriffs, 2 sergeants and the addition of public safety vehicles.
• Provide approximately $860,000 levy to fully-fund the Sheriff’s Department five-member
Drug Enforcement Unit and the department’s High Intensity Drug Trafficking program
to combat illegal drug activities within Milwaukee County.
• Provide more than $7.0 million for Airport Security by providing 59 Deputy Sheriffs
(including four K-9 units), 6 Sergeants, 1 Captain for patrols and security duties at General
Mitchell International Airport.
• Provide $8.0 million, including almost $1.5 million in levy funds, for the Sheriff’s
Department’s 57-member Expressway Patrol Unit to ensure 24-hr highway safety and
emergency assistance to motorists. Funding for this program is partially offset by
approximately $2.7 million in citation revenue, $1.9 million in County Trunk Maintenance
revenue and $1.1 million in state revenue.
• Increase funding for law enforcement equipment by providing $365,000 for digital video
cameras and automatic vehicle locator equipment in Sheriff department squad cars.
• Streamline prisoner transport and provide taxpayer savings by authorizing contracted
prisoner transport services resulting in a savings of approximately $300,000 annually.

Emergency Medical Services (EMS)
• Increase resources for Emergency Medical Services (EMS) by providing $540,000 in
capital funds for the replacement of outdated cardiac monitor/defibrillator equipment on
paramedic transport units operating within Milwaukee County. The Budget also maintains a
$3.0 million supplemental payment to municipalities to offset local EMS costs and more
than $2.8 million to support EMS communications and infrastructure.

CArcher_Email3015676

Courts
• Enhance Courthouse Security by providing more than $9.5 million for bailiff services in
the Courts and $329,600 in capital funding for the installation of courtroom
videoconferencing equipment and bullet resistance glazing walls in selected courtrooms.
These resources will improve Courthouse security and reduce overtime costs.

House of Correction
• Implement the use of 24/7 monitoring of work release offenders currently served at the
Community Correctional Center (CCC), resulting in improved monitoring and
accountability of offenders while in the community and a savings of approximately $2.4
million. This initiative includes the creation of a Community Services Coordinator to
transition CCC offenders into available community-based treatment and job skills programs.
• Provide more than $693,000 in capital improvement funding for the House of Correction,
including $250,000 for HOC security enhancements.
• Increase funding by approximately $100,000 for community-based rehabilitative and
educational programming services at the Community Justice Resource Center that serves
as an alternative to incarceration for participants.
• Provide funding and staff to support the opening of three additional dorms at the HOC to
house a projected increase in State inmates. These costs are fully offset by the receipt of
additional revenue from the State.
• Redirect existing resources towards higher priority public safety needs by closing the Farm
and Fish Hatchery at the House of Correction for a savings of $256,384.

Human Services Juvenile Corrections
• Increase funding for the Firearm Offender Supervision Program to replace lost federal
funds and to increase the number of available slots from 60 slots in 2007 to 70 slots in 2008.
This program has been successful in diverting adjudicated delinquents from placement in
State facilities.
• Provide more than $1 million in additional property tax levy funding to cover the projected
cost of State charges for the placement of juveniles in State juvenile corrections facilities.
Total State charges are projected to increase by over $7 million compared to 2007 while
projected state youth aids revenue is projected to increase by approximately $6 million –
leaving a gap of $1 million to be funded from County property taxes.
• Maintain expenditures of more than $13.8 million for intensive juvenile community-based
treatment and supervision services as an alternative to placing adjudicated juveniles in
costly State institutions. [Includes Wraparound, Level II Supervision Program and Serious
Chronic Offender Program]

CArcher_Email3015677

Parks Department
• Creation of a Parks Patrol unit in the Parks Department to provide citizen safety oversight,
improve coordination with local law enforcement and the Sheriff’s Department and
encourage voluntary compliance with County Parks rules and regulations.

Savings is $2.9 million in labor cost --approximately $1.1 million of the
savings is due to the fact the County does not have to pay fringe benefits for
seasonal and approximatly $1.9 million is related to a reduction in salary.
Salary is lower because Parks will only pay for the hours needed vs having FT
time staff during down times of the year and the labor rate is slighly lower
for seasonals: Seasonals make about $6 to$11 per hour, full-time park
maintenance workers 1 make approx $14 to $17 per hour and park maintenance
workers II make $15 to 18 per hour. The key is that with a full time worker,
you are paying for 2080 hours, but with vacation and leave time actual hours
worked approximate 1,700 per year. With seasonals, the County only pays for
the hours needed and hours worked and no cost related to fringe benefits.

So, in the main, where are the savings? Is it in future pension and OPEB costs?
Just flat-out lower labor costs per hour?

You might find this of interest (consider Jerry's editorial this morning):
The headline last week said that our budget for parks will abolish 81
positions. Actually, 50 of these entry level positions are filled and 31 are
vacant.
Currently, they provide 87,500.00 labor hours each year.
The budget submitted by Sue Black and her staff (which I support) calls for
creating 20 new positions and adding $600,000 for seasonal employees. This
provides the county with 105,571.43 labor hours per year - plus the flexibility
of getting much of it in the prime time of the spring and summer.
The math is simple: our plan provides more hours of work in the parks. Add to
that new equipment we purchase in the capital budget and new training and
supervision and this is a win/win for the parks and the taxpayers.

I mentioned to Josh that you might like a visual that graphs the current
workforce and hours available by month and then what the graph looks like with
the seasonal. I would expect to see a fairly stable line for the permanent
staff regardless of the month and a line for seasons that dips in the winter
and peaks above the perm staff in the summer. Might clearly illustrate to the
public why are we paying for hours not needed? Anyway it is a thought. If you
want something like this, I think you would have to give the direction to Sue
to prepare. He DID say that they talked about doing something like this for
when their budget comes up, but maybe it would be useful to you now. Just a
thought.

11 crimes
Friday, September 21, 2007 12:03:53 PM

I clarified with HOC. Currently is someone is convicted of one of the 11
crimes AND the judge sentences them to community access, those inmates DO leave
during the day and go to work. However, they cannot be put on home detention.
Scott, I take it from talking to you that you want the same to hold. Even with
GPS, they should not be on home detention. I will edit the narrative and let
you look at it again. It is HOC's position that this will create a budget hole
and could require keeping an addtional floor open. From talking to you, I
assume you will deal with that later.

        11 crimes




CArcher_Email3015705



I clarified with HOC. Currently is someone is convicted of one of the 11
crimes AND the judge sentences them to community access, those inmates DO leave
during the day and go to work. However, they cannot be put on home detention.
Scott, I take it from talking to you that you want the same to hold. Even with
GPS, they should not be on home detention. I will edit the narrative and let
you look at it again. It is HOC's position that this will create a budget hole
and could require keeping an addtional floor open. From talking to you, I
assume you will deal with that later.

The list I gave you did not match exactly to the resolution. I have attached
the resolution for your reference. Basically, Battery was in the resolution
(not on our original list) as was carrying a concealed weapon. Also, only 2nd
degree reckless endangerment of safety was on the resolution, not 1st degree.
I have modified the dot point to reflect such. We are going to print in less

NO! The increase in levy you site is due to the change that put levy into
departments to pay cross-charges (instead of abating them out). The real
change in levy, setting aside the redistribution of levy for crosscharges, is a
decrease of $3,070,004 from the 2007 levy.

Looking at the budget summary for the Sheriff's Office, it looks to me like
they get an increase in tax levy support of $8.759 million. Is that a correct

Cindy - can you call me about the draft letter below?

A letter printed in the Sunday paper is worthy of correction. The
budget that County Executive Scott Walker presents this week will include
Parks Director Sue Black’s recommendation on staffing that actually
add more hours of work in the parks.
The budget plan will abolish 81 positions, but only 50 of them are
actually filled. These positions currently provide 87,500.00 labor hours
per year.
In place of these full-time, year-round employees, the budget creates
20 positions and provides $600,000 for seasonal employees. This gives
the county 105,571.43 labor hours per year.
Yes, that is correct. County Executive Walker’s proposal actually
provides 18,071.43 more hours of work in the parks while saving the
taxpayers millions of dollars. He also provides funding for training,
supervision and equipment.

CArcher_Email3015745

Finally, using a seasonal workforce gives the park system the
flexibility to put the majority of the extra hours of work into the prime
spring
and summer season. This means even more time to help keep the parks
looking good when we use them the most.
Surely a budget plan like Walker’s with more hours of work and better
equipment will give us all a park system we can take pride in.

A letter printed in the Sunday paper is worthy of correction. The 2008 Bbudget that County
Executive Scott Walker presents this week will include
Parks Director Sue Black’s
recommendation on staffing that will actually add more hours of work in the parks.
The budget plan will abolish 81 positions, of whichbut only 50 of them are actually currently filled.
These positions currently provide approximately 85,000 87,500.00 labor hours per year.
In place of these full-time, year-round employees, the budget restructures the Parks Department’s
staffing pattern by creating creates 20 full-time positions and providinges $600,000 for seasonal
employees. This modified staffing plan will gives the Ccounty 100,395 105,571.43 labor hours per
year or an increase in labor hours of 15,395 labor hours per year over what is currently available.
In essence, Yes, that is correct. County Executive Walker’s proposal actually provides 18,071.43
more hours of work in the Pparks while saving the taxpayers $3.0 million per year.millions of
dollars. Walker’s 2008 Budget also provides additional Parks funding for training, supervision
and over $1.1 million in new, more efficient He also provides funding for training, supervision and
parks maintenance equipment.
When advancing the proposal to Walker, Parks Director Sue Black indicated that Finally, using a
using a more seasonal workforce would gives the Ppark Ssystem the flexibility to put the majority
of the extra hours of work into the prime spring and summer season and would . This means
even more time to help therefore keep the parks better maintained during the time they are most
in use.looking good when we use them the most.
In short, if adopted by the County Board, the plan advancedproposed by the Parks Department
and included in Walker’s budget will provide more hours of work, a significant investment in high
efficiency equipment, a taxpayer savings of $3 million and will improve the operation and
maintenance of the parks by providing the labor when most needed.Surely a budget plan like
Walker’s with more hours of work and better equipment will give us all a park system we can take
pride in.

I called Joe 'Kutner'? back. He was very nice and understood. He indicated
that last time around they (the union) were in for big surprises. I told him
there will be no surprises. The net downer (unfunded/abolished) in the
Sheriff's department for deputies is 11. They currently have over 40 deputy
vacancies. I told him in some cases the abolished or unfunded positions were
vacant and where filled, throughout the budget document he will see language
indicating that staff will be reallocated into existing vacancies. I also
reminded him that while the inmate transportation unit saw a decrease of 15, we
added in the Airport (5).
Anyway he seemed perfectly ok.

Cindy, I am assuming that the Exec's budget had already gone to the printer by
the time Supv. Nyklewicz asked that information from item 9 of last Thursday's
F and A agenda be included. We will work with you to include it by amendment.

I must say you have all done a great job in completing the 2008 Operating and
Capital Budgets. Both documents are certainly something to be proud of. I
want to show my appreciation for your hard work by treating you all to lunch at
a place of your choosing on Thursday after the Board meeting. Please join me
for this celebratory lunch.
I understand that many of you wish to take vacation on Friday. That is fine.
Just please let Kat know if you plan to be out so it can be noted on my
calendar.
I am also asking that you block out time on the following Monday (10/01)
morning from 8:30-10:00 for our staff to meet with Board staff on any questions
they may have regarding the recommended budget. It is my understanding that
they have only one week to prepare a summary for the Finance and Audit
Committee and that it is tradition to meet with them as they begin their work
to field any questions they may have. I don't think there is really any way to
prepare for this meeting. I am sure some of their questions will be easy to
answer while others might require getting back to them. In any event, we need
to be sensitive to their timeframe as they complete their work the week after
budget introduction. I will verify with Steve Cady in the AM the time and
place. All of you should plan on attending this meeting.
I expect a flurry of activity in the immediate hours and days following the
release of the Budget. We can expect questions from Board staff, the press and
departments. I appreciate in advance you assistance in responding to these
inquiries.

• Provide more than $693,000 in capital improvement funding for the House of Correction,
including $250,000 for HOC security enhancements.

house a projected increase in State inmates. These costs are fully offset by the receipt of
additional revenue from the State.
• Redirect existing resources towards higher priority public safety needs by closing the Farm
and Fish Hatchery at the House of Correction for a savings of $256,384.

Human Services Juvenile Corrections
• Increase funding for the Firearm Offender Supervision Program to replace lost federal

cost of State charges for the placement of juveniles in State juvenile corrections facilities.
Total State charges are projected to increase by over $7 million compared to 2007 while

Worker positions ($900.037), 6.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker 2 In-Charge positions
($405,183) and the creation of additional seasonal positions ($598,379). Costs are offset by
the abolishment of 31 vacant park maintenance workers and approximately 50 FTE filled
park maintenance workers resulting in an overall savings of $2.9 million.
• Authorize the Parks Director to continue to negotiate with the Friends of Hoyt Park and
community-based organizations interested in re-opening the Hales Corners pool, to allow for
continued community-based funding and management of both the Hoyt Park and Hales

Health and Human Services
Behavioral Health Division
• Provide more than $1.7 million to address the significant surge in volume at BHD’s
Psychiatric Crisis Service and the increased safety concerns caused largely by the
increased volume and increased acuity of patients being served at the Mental Health
Complex. To address these issues the 2008 Budget includes:
− An appropriation of more than $1.2 million to allow BHD to increase its observation
beds in its Psychiatric Crisis Service from 11 to 18. This appropriation is offset by
$766,500 of reimbursement revenue.
−

An appropriation of $224,573 to sustain increased security staff added in the fall of
2007 in response to increased incidents of patient-to-staff violence in BHD’s Rehab
Central units.

−

An appropriation of $92,719 to fund a psychologist to help staff the Mobile Crisis
Team (MCT) during evening shifts. The psychologist would augment the work of
the current MCT by being available 7 days a week working an evening shift
concurrent with MCT.

9
CArcher_Email3015764

•

Provide full funding for BHD community-based contractual services. While the
contractual services budget shows a reduction of $450,000, that reduction will be fully
offset via savings achieved from signing up eligible residential, Community Support
Program and Targeted Case Management clients for Family Care.

Special Needs Housing
•

Provide $1 million in the Capital Improvements Budget for the construction of housing
for individuals with mental illness served by BHD. This would build off the $1 million
included in the 2007 County Budget for the same purpose, of which approximately
$500,000 has so far been appropriated for two projects in Milwaukee’s central city.

•

Create a new Housing Division in the County’s Department of Health and Human
Services (DHHS). The new Division would combine the Voucher and Home/Home
Repair programs that are currently housed in the DAS-Economic and Community
Development Division with the Special Needs Housing program housed in the
Behavioral Health Division. The new division will reflect a new strategic emphasis for
the County on prioritizing the use of Federal HUD funds to serve persons with mental
illness and disabilities.

•

9
CArcher_Email3015778

•

offset via savings achieved from signing up eligible residential, Community Support
Program and Targeted Case Management clients for Family Care.

Special Needs Housing
•

Provide $1 million in the Capital Improvements Budget for the construction of housing
for individuals with mental illness served by BHD. This would build off the $1 million
included in the 2007 County Budget for the same purpose, of which approximately
$500,000 has so far been appropriated for two projects in Milwaukee’s central city.

•

Create a new Housing Division in the County’s Department of Health and Human
Services (DHHS). The new Division would combine the Voucher and Home/Home
Repair programs that are currently housed in the DAS-Economic and Community

the County on prioritizing the use of Federal HUD funds to serve persons with mental
illness and disabilities.

•

Provide $55,000 for supportive services in the new United Christian Church/Cardinal
Capital housing development at 25th and Center. This project is one of two that has

supportive services for the 24 BHD residents who will reside there.

local agencies and governmental entities that is charged with applying for HUD
Homeless Assistance dollars on an annual basis.

recommended by the Special Needs Housing Action Team.

County also has worked successfully with hospital system partners and the State of
Wisconsin to increase Federal funding for the program and maintain hospital system
contributions for GAMP administration and infrastructure.

Disabilities Services
•

Provide increased funding for Long-Term Support Services for persons with
disabilities, and maintain funding for crisis respite beds and client advocacy.

•

Continue support for the Long-Term Care Reform planning process that could lead to
implementation of Family Care services and elimination of waiting lists for persons with
disabilities under the age of 60 in 2008.

10
CArcher_Email3015779

Economic Support Services
•

Provide more than $2.4 million of property tax-funded “overmatch” for Income
Maintenance services to ensure eligibility determination for needy citizens seeking access
to Food Stamps, Medicaid and Child Care benefits. This “overmatch” is required due to
the State’s failure to properly fund eligibility determination activities in Milwaukee
County.

•

Launch a Food Share Modernization initiative that will focus on empowering potential
and existing customers to conduct their Food Stamp transactions through the use of the
Internet and a network of community partners.

•

Create a Child Care Fraud Unit to strengthen current fraud intervention efforts. Nine
positions are created to investigate and process child care fraud as well as improve

Center and Verification Center.

Department on Aging
•

Provide administrative capacity and staff for continued growth of the Family Care
program for adults over age 60.

•

Fully fund Senior Meal Program and continued operation of 31 senior meal sites. This
program provides older persons, particularly those with low incomes, low-cost,
nutritionally sound meals in strategically located sites throughout the County.

•

Provide more than $1.3 million for operation of Senior Centers and $300,000 to address
maintenance and upkeep at the Centers.

Economic and Community Development
•

Create streamlined Economic and Community Development Division to focus
exclusively on economic development grants and activities. This focus is critical in light
of several monumental economic development projects that have recently been initiated,
including potential purchase or lease of the St. Michael facility for the Behavioral Heath
Division and potential sale of land in the Northeast Quadrant of the County Grounds to
the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee for a new School of Engineering.

•

Direct continued negotiation and closure of sale of three additional Park East parcels
and the 6th and State property, generating $7.2 million in revenue and creating
hundreds of additional jobs and economic growth.

11
CArcher_Email3015780

County Government Operations
Strategic Planning
•

Provide $40,000 for consulting assistance for a newly formed Long-Range Strategic
Planning Steering Committee charged with defining core County services and ranking
those services so that budget decisions are based on the County’s overall strategic
priorities and mission.

•

Provide $40,000 for a professional real estate consultant to assist in the development of a
countywide space plan that addresses the County’s need for space given the 20%
reduction in the County’s workforce over the past five years and to identify opportunities
for disposition of excess County buildings and properties.

•

Direct top county administrators to work with Milwaukee Regional Medical Center and
community leaders to assess the future vision of the County Grounds and Milwaukee
County’s presence on the County Grounds.

Financial Accountability and Resource Management
•

Provide an investment of approximately $815,000 to strengthen financial staff
resources and oversight across County government to ensure proper fiscal monitoring,
control, reporting and expenditure of taxpayer funds and to maximize the draw down of
State and Federal funds for Milwaukee County.

•

Fulfill the County’s responsibility to fully fund the County’s retirement system by
proposing the issuance of pension obligation bonds to eliminate most of the Pension
Fund’s outstanding liability. A total of $38.8 million in pension funding is provided in
2008 to cover projected pension costs and create a pension stabilization fund for the
future.

•

The 2008 budget shows a continued slowdown in the growth of employee health
benefit costs that has resulted from better management of health care costs, increased
employee contributions for health care coverage and the conversion to a self-insured
model. In 2008, employee health care cost are projected to increase slightly above 9%
from the 2007 projected year-end cost compared to increases ranging from 17%-20% in
recent years.

•

Provide more than $1 million to create and implement an employee wellness and disease
management program to further control health care costs and improve employee health.

•

The 2008 Budget includes centralized resources in the County’s Human Resources
Department to improve overtime management and oversee the implementation of the
Family Medical Leave Act to ensure consistent application throughout the County.

•

Provide additional staff and recruitment funds primarily devoted to the recruitment and
staffing of critical health care and public safety vacancies, which will result in improved

12
CArcher_Email3015781

staff morale and less overtime in the Behavioral Health Division, House of Correction
and the Jail.
•

Authorize and provide funding in the Parks Department and Facilities Management
Division to initiate Guaranteed Energy Savings Performance Contracting to improve the
County’s energy efficiency and promote environmental sustainability.
Both
departments will work with vendors during 2008 to retrofit or replace energy-consuming
equipment to reduce energy consumption and realize utility cost savings.

•

The 2008 Budget includes a fiscally responsible debt management plan to ensure
borrowing is within the County bonding cap. Proposed general obligation bonding is
recommended at $29,688,339 with the largest expenditure for Transportation and Public
Works projects (53.5%) followed by Parks, Recreation and Culture (21.8%), General
Government (19.7%) and Health and Human Services (5.0%).

had the diagnosis, she was too sick for us to do anything other than ease her
suffering.
She was one really good girl.

Tuesday, September 25, 2007 2:32:35 PM

When bringing forward certs, please be very, very sure that positions you are
recommending for filling are not impacted by recommended 2008 Budget Actions.
If they are, bring them forward and I will note that they should be held vacant
until after the passage of the 2008 Budget and return them to the departments.
I don't want to get back in the situation where DAS is holding a bunch of cert
requests because we have not acted on them. Also, please remember that we are
not out of the wood yet for 2007. The budget actions I laid out in the July
memo are still in effect -- i.e., we should be filling only the most critical
positions and the position justification form should be attached to all certs.

This is correct except I think you meant to say "219", not "218".
Everyone, please work off of Anita's attahced chart and not the narrative
that was included in the orignal transit request. The chart is correct

and the top third is what the CEX restored. The partial route
eliminations and reorganizations shown on the bottom half of the chart
represent what MTS proposed and the CEX included in the 2008 budget.

2008 Budget

FranAs I mentioned on the telephone, Cindy Archer called me this morning
because there was a discrepancy between the budget write-up and the list
of routes to be eliminated. I wanted to make sure that you have the
correct information if you are contacted by the press. The following
routes which were proposed to be completely eliminated as part of our
budget submission will be restored in the County Executive's budget:
Routes 218,59,45,47,68,64,87,28,43,89,48.
We are working on revising the budget write-up to reflect the changes that
have been made. Bill Roberts will have to adjust the cost and revenue
numbers to reflect all of the changes, including the restoration of
paratransit services.
Attached is a revised table showing the restored routes and the route
segments that are still slated for elimination or reorganization. If you
have any questions, please contact me. Anita

Re: Taxes

Property Tax Levy -- Walker.xls

Ament's budgets grew on average 4.51% per year compared to your 1.645% (that
includes a 0% increase for 2008).
Based on the average 4.51% per year, the 2008 levy would be $284,931,279 vs
proposed $241,047,846.
We have attached a graph.
You need to be very careful, because inflating by the 4.51% may put us above
legal levy limits. If you can hold off, we will see what the limits were in
each of these years. My fear is that you release this and get hit with the
fact that it would have been impossible due to levy limits. But this will take
a little time to check. Hit the tab at the bottom that says chart (to get
picture) or data to get numbers.

Also Exec wants me to put together a flyer for the rally in the hall tomorrow. He
needs to know how many riders on ParaTransit have the cost of their rides paid
for by Disability Services, FamilyCare or some other program.
Also to include detail on the budget about the additional $4 million to restore
all of the routes that the transit system proposed to eliminate and to restore
the service area for ParaTransit.
Let me know if I should be going to someone else for this info I have to leave now to staff exec on radio program. Will have my bb.

The answer to your first question is yes -- we will burn him a disk (which is
what we usually give the press). He should call Kat or myself in the morning
to arrange to pick it up.
We are researching your second question.
The routes restored, etc are laid out in the budget narrative which I have
attached.

Just so you know the average cost per ride for paratransit is $21.32, while the
fare will only be $4.00.

Milwaukee Transport Services, Inc., (MTS)
originally projected a $10 million deficit for the
Milwaukee County Transit System in 2008 and
proposed the following corrective actions as part
of the DTPW – Transit / Paratransit Requested
2008 Budget: the elimination of 11 fixed bus
routes;
service
reductions
and
route
modifications for various other fixed routes; a
reduction to the Transit Plus paratransit service
area; and fare increases as shown below.

The 2008 Recommended Budget provides an
additional $2.1 million in tax levy to avoid the
elimination of fixed routes proposed by MTS.
Routes originally proposed for elimination that
are fully funded in the 2008 budget are as
th
th
follows: 28 (108 St.), 64 (S. 60 Street), and
68 (Port Washington); Freeway Flyers 43
(Whitnall), 45 (Watertown Plank), 47 (S. 27th),
and 48 (South Shore); School Routes 59 (Mill
Road), 87 (Nathan Hale), and 89 (St. Francis);
and Industrial Shuttle 219 (Oak Creek Shuttle).
The MTS proposal to reduce Transit Plus
paratransit service to within ¾ of the fixed route
service
area
is
also
avoided.
The
Recommended Budget fully funds Transit Plus
paratransit service throughout Milwaukee
County. A net increase of $1.9 million in revenue
from the Department of Health and Human
Services and the Department on Aging – CMO
helps make this possible.

•

Segment eliminations impact Route 15 on
th
the
Clement-Howard-Pennsylvania-15
th
branch and the 5 & Columbia loop, Route
19 south of Layton Avenue, Route 20 south
of Layton, Route 23 north and west of 91st &
Mill, Route 27 to the Glendale Industrial

The reorganization of several routes is also
recommended to reduce operating costs
and eliminate service duplications. Routes
11, 14, 19, and 20 would be reorganized.
Service would be eliminated entirely on
Route 11 from Water Street to 47th Street
Route 31 service would be moved from
Washington Blvd. to Vliet Street between
47th and 60th Streets. Routes 15 and 55
would be reorganized. Route 15 would
terminate at Packard and Layton. Route 55
would provide service on the former Route
15 south of Layton on Packard and Chicago.
Route 55 service east of Packard and
Layton would be eliminated. Routes 12 and
80 would be reorganized. Route 80 service
on the Locust/Hopkins Branch would be
eliminated. Route 12 service north of Florist
would also be eliminated. The Route 12
Hampton Ave. Branch would become a
branch of Route 80.

The 2008 Recommended Budget provides
changes to transit and paratransit fares as

COUNTY EXECUTIVE'S 2008 BUDGET
DEPT: MILWAUKEE COUNTY TRANSIT/PARATRANSIT SYSTEM

•

Overall fixed route bus hours are projected to
decrease 9.6% and bus passenger revenues are
projected to decrease $2,155,764 due to
proposed service adjustments.

•

Overall productivity for paratransit van service is
projected to be 2.02 rides per hour in 2008.

•

Based on anticipated increases for paratransit
operator costs and an increasing amount of
paratransit van ridership, the average cost per
paratransit ride is projected to increase to
$21.32 in 2008.

•

This budget assumes that MCTS will continue to
receive full reimbursement for Title XIX trips
provided by paratransit.

•

State specialized transportation assistance is
projected to increase $35,972 (2.5%) to
$1,477,000.

•

Federal formula funds used for transit operations
(capitalized maintenance) will be $18,700,000,
an increase of $400,000 compared to the 2007
budget.

•

Federal cost of contracting funds (FTA formula
funds) in the amount of $1,750,000 will be used
for paratransit operations, an increase of
$100,000 over 2007.

•

The abatement of Countywide crosscharges is
discontinued in 2008. The tax levy previously
held in the servicing department is redistributed
to the recipient departments in an amount
corresponding to the crosscharges. This results
in a tax levy redistribution equal to the change in
abatements. Due primarily to this change in
methodology, direct tax levy for this department
increased $1,084,759. The actual change in tax
levy for this department from 2007 is an increase
of $921,233.

MTS deficit -- not SKW fault
Tuesday, September 25, 2007 4:31:49 PM
MTS Budget gap.doc

Just so you know, at the Finance and Audit Committee, there was alot of blame
put on Walker's levy target for Transit. Specifically the levy target was
blamed for the route eliminations etc. Attached is a document that illustrates
the components that makes up the $10 million transit deficit -- you will see
the approx $800,000 levy target reduction is the least of their problems.
Also, providing the $4 million more than wiped out the levy target issue.

Milwaukee Transit System – 2008 Budget Proposal

In response to a $10.0 million budget gap for fiscal year 2008, the Transit / Paratransit Division of the Department
of Transportation and Public Works provides a 2008 Budget Request that includes service reductions for both
fixed route and paratransit service, and proposes fare increases for both services. Fiscal challenges contributing
to the budget gap facing the Milwaukee County Transit System in 2008 are:


An increased liability for Other Post Employment Benefits (OPEB) by $1.8 million.



A budgeted $1.4 million increase for costs associated with higher paratransit ridership to reflect
current 2007 experience.



A budgeted $1.7 million decrease in fixed-route fare revenue to reflect current 2007 experience.



A decrease in sick pay savings by $1.9 million due to a 2007, one time accounting adjustment.



A decrease in tax levy support in the amount of $883,400 due to an increase in debt service
distributed to agencies countywide.



An increased cost of $219,000 for vehicle depreciation charges.

An operating cost increase of $2.1 million due to a budgeted 2% inflation rate.

George;
As requested, I have shown some of the various ways in which costs per rider
may be represented. It is important to know exactly which costs are included
and excluded from the cost component of the calculation. I hope that this
information is helpful, please let me know if there is anything else that we
can provide. Thanks.

COUNTY BOARD SUPERVISOR AMENDMENT PROCESS

County Board adopted procedures require formal Supervisor amendments to the budget to be
submitted during the time that Finance and Audit Committee hearings are conducted. The
final hearing is scheduled for October 31, 2007 at 9:30 a.m. In order for your amendment to be
considered at that meeting, it must be submitted to Dee Hervey by 3:00 p.m. on Tuesday,
October 30, 2007. Please allow time for research staff to put the request into the proper
amendment format. Amendments submitted after that time will have to be submitted by the
author under suspension of the rules on budget adoption day.
Supervisors are strongly urged to submit any amendments to the budget at the time the Finance
and Audit Committee is reviewing the relevant budget. It is intended that each departmental
budget will be approved on the day it is heard, unless there is a specific reason for a layover.
Amendments relating to a budget that already has been approved by the Finance and Audit
Committee will require a vote to reopen the budget in addition to a vote to approve the
amendment itself. In addition, Supervisors are encouraged to ensure that any budget
amendments that provide for a new or increased expenditure appropriation identify a
corresponding expenditure decrease elsewhere in the budget, or a viable source of additional
revenue.
Requests for budget amendments should be directed to the research analyst whose committee
assignment includes the budget you wish to amend. If you are unsure of the appropriate research
analyst, please submit your request to Steve Cady, Fiscal and Budget Analyst. The following is
a list of County Board research analyst committee assignments:
Glenn Bultman:
Steve Cady:
Rick Ceschin:
Brian Dranzik:
Julie Esch:
Martin Weddle:

Economic & Community Development
Finance and Audit; Intergovernmental Relations
Judiciary, Safety and General Services; Personnel
Transportation, Public Works and Transit
Parks, Energy & Environment
Health and Human Needs

Please be aware that individual research analysts may be dealing with several amendment
requests at one time. Amendment preparation will be prioritized according to the order in which
the item is to be reviewed by the Finance and Audit Committee and/or by order of submission.
Once a Supervisor has approved an amendment in its final form, it will be his or her
responsibility to appear before the Finance and Audit Committee. If the Supervisor decides that
he or she does NOT want the amendment to be considered, then staff should be notified. If the
Finance and Audit Committee rejects a budget amendment, it will be sent to the County Board
for consideration at the Annual Meeting unless the requesting Supervisor directs otherwise.
Please note that in order to ensure a fair and efficient process, outlined procedures will be
strictly followed.

Shadowing
Wednesday, September 26, 2007 8:15:06 AM

Natalie Feggestad will start her shadowing project tomorrow. I thought the day
of budget introduction would be a good day to start. She will write a
prospectus next week for her professor on what she intends to get out of the
experience. The project will last the term of the semester and I will
coordinate with her on times where there is something noteworthy going on. I
tried to convince her to consider shadowing you because you are involved in
much more high profile and exciting stuff than I am, but hopefully the budget
process will give her enough material. If it is ok with you, I would like her
to attend at least one cabinet meeting and one day of the status meetings the
CEX has with department heads so she can get a feel of issues facing county
government. I have total confidence in her ability to keep things confidential
that need to be kept confidential and I will have an opportunity to review her
final paper before it is submitted. If you have ideas for things for her/us to
do, let me know.
I have not communicated this to the CEX Office. Perhaps we should mention it
the next time we meet with CEX?

Distribution of budgets
Wednesday, September 26, 2007 8:54:29 AM

What is the process for distributing budgets to departments? Do they pick them
up here? Do we limit how many copies they get (i.e., Department Heads only?),
if so does Jackie have a list with the number for each department?
Do we charge the public/press for printed copies?
How will the budgets be distributed to County Board Staff?
I have a cabinet meeting this morning and I am sure I will get asked about this.
Let me know.

budgets for supervisors
Wednesday, September 26, 2007 8:58:12 AM

We need to talk about how the budgets get distributed to the Supervisors
tomorrow. Kat said that DAS brings them down and after the speech Ed hands
them out? She is giving me alot of pressure to let herself and budget staff
hand them out b/c she said Ed always messes it up? I am not sure what the real
issue is here, but I need to give clear directions. I would think it would be
more efficient if budget staff hand them out vs having Ed do it all alone. If
you do not have a preference, I will defer to the CEX Office.

This is how it used to work. I'm assuming it still does.....Departments are
able to order a copy of the whole budget from the HOC at a charge to the
department. The budget is put on line after his speech so the publicand
departments are typically directed there for copies. If the public wanted a
whole copy of the budget, they could contact the HOC and pay for a copy of it.
The County Board budgets are delivered by our staff immediately prior to the
speech. Jackie will keep a few copies of individuals budget narratives to hand
out if needed.

STATEMENT ON STATE BUDGET ASSUMPTIONS
IN 2008 RECOMMENDED BUDGET

In light of the failure of the Wisconsin Legislature to pass a 2007-09 State Budget prior to the
deadline for submission of the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget, the
Recommended Budget makes several assumptions regarding State revenue allocations for 2008.
In general, the approach taken was to budget per the version of the State Budget passed by the
Joint Committee on Finance (JFC), which was seen as a “middle of the road” approach that did
not incorporate the wide divergence of funding contained in the separate versions passed by the
State Assembly and State Senate.
The following is a list of the major State revenue items in which significant differences exist
between various versions of the State Budget as identified by the Department of Administrative
Services (DAS) and County Board staff in a report dated July 20, 2007. For each item, the
assumption utilized in the Recommended Budget is reported, and a broad potential corrective
action plan is suggested in the event that actual State revenue falls significantly short of the
amount budgeted. It also should be noted that the Recommended Budget contains an
Appropriation for Contingencies of $3,155,758.
•

Shared Revenue. The Recommended Budget assumes that, per the JFC Budget, Milwaukee
County will receive an additional $980,000 of State Shared revenue in 2008. As is noted in
the Recommended Budget, if that amount is not appropriated, then DAS will work with the
Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) to identify property tax levy expenditure
reductions equivalent to the shortfall in DHHS’ Income Maintenance operations. The
County currently provides a property tax levy “overmatch” of more than $2.4 million in this
State-mandated function.

•

Courts. The Recommended Budget assumes an increase of $2,099,771 in Circuit Court
Support grant funding in 2008 per the JFC Budget. If that amount is not appropriated, then
the Chief Judge and Clerk of Circuit Court should identify property tax levy expenditure
reductions equivalent to the shortfall within the Courts.

•

Transit. The Recommended Budget assumes an increase of $1,513,972, or 2.5%, in Mass
Transit Operating Assistance for the Milwaukee County Transit System (MCTS) in 2008
(including both Transit and Paratransit). The JFC and Assembly Budgets provide an increase
of 2% statewide for mass transit, while the Senate version provides an increase of 2.5% plus
a special allocation of $3.2 million annually specifically for MCTS. The Recommended
Budget assumes the 2.5% increase contained in the Senate version, but does not include the
additional $3.2 million. If the additional $1,513,972 is not appropriated, then MCTS will be
directed to utilize the list of transit route eliminations contained in its requested budget, but
restored in the Recommended Budget, to identify property tax levy expenditure reductions
equivalent to the shortfall.

•

Juvenile Corrections. The Recommended Budget assumes, per the JFC Budget, that the
rate charged by the State for housing Milwaukee County delinquent youth at State Juvenile

CArcher_Email3015834

Correctional Institutions will increase from $209 to $259 per day effective July 1, 2007, and
to $268 per day effective July 1, 2008. This increase – combined with an increased daily
census projection – would produce an additional cost to DHHS of $7,662,812. The
Recommended Budget also assumes, per the JFC Budget, that the State Youth Aids payment
provided to Milwaukee County in 2008 would increase by $5,980,595, resulting in a net
estimated increase in costs of $1,686,217 for the JCI population. If, as a result of final State
Budget action, this net cost increases, then DAS will work with DHHS to identify property
tax levy expenditure reductions equivalent to the shortfall from discretionary areas of
spending within the DHHS budget. Those areas potentially would include Income
Maintenance “overmatch”, Indigent Burials, 211 Line, and community-based disabilities,
delinquency and/or behavioral health services.

Distribution of Budgets to Supervisors
Wednesday, September 26, 2007 9:32:15 AM

Ed, apparently in the past DAS staff has passed the budgets out the
Supervisor's immediately following the speech. I think in some years, staff
passed them out, immediately ahead of the speech. Please let me know your
preference in how to handle the distribution. Thanks.

hard copies of budgets for DAS analysts
Wednesday, September 26, 2007 9:34:19 AM

Please ensure there are enough budgets reserved so the each DAS analyst had a
hard copy of both the operating and capital budget. I understand this is
different from past years, but this is how I would like to proceed. If we need
to secure more copies from HOC, then please do so.

Also Exec wants me to put together a flyer for the rally in the hall tomorrow. He
needs to know how many riders on ParaTransit have the cost of their rides paid
for by Disability Services, FamilyCare or some other program.
Also to include detail on the budget about the additional $4 million to restore
all of the routes that the transit system proposed to eliminate and to restore
the service area for ParaTransit.
Let me know if I should be going to someone else for this info I have to leave now to staff exec on radio program. Will have my bb.

Hi Cindy,
I noticed that the Risk Management Dept. has the O'Donell park and parking
garage insured for 48.6 million dollars. Can you find out and tell me if we own
this or do we still have any outstanding balances on this property.

We have already released the $2.4 million number multiple times. I suggest we
leave it for now and correct it as part of a technical correction once we get
through tomorrow. I do not want to throw all of our documents off and the CEX

        IM Overmatch number





Rob & Cindy,
I made a miscalculation on the IM overmatch number I included in the
narrative. I was calculating the number one way, and I now realize my
assumptions were wrong. Since this is likely a big part of the Exec's speech,
I definitely want to correct this. The number I gave you in the narrative was
$2,417,288. The number should be $2,045,317.
This is based on taking the total amount of levy in the Economic Support
Division, backing out levy associated with Child Care programs and with the
Indigent Burial program. That number is $3,527,954. Based on conversations
with Rob, it was decided to represent this number as if abatements were still
being taken out, for consistency across years. To do this, I backed out the
abated IMSD charges as well as HRIS, coming up with the number of $2,045,317.
I realize this is late timing, especially after you asked me to relook at this

CArcher_Email3015842

Monday morning. All I can say is I thought the number was good, but I was
using the wrong assumptions, and talking to DHHS staff Monday morning helped me
realize that. Sorry for the mistake. I've attached a worksheet showing how I
arrived at the new number.
Thanks,
Dan

Re: Taxes

CArcher_Email3015846

Ament's budgets grew on average 4.51% per year compared to your 1.645% (that
includes a 0% increase for 2008).
Based on the average 4.51% per year, the 2008 levy would be $284,931,279 vs
proposed $241,047,846.
We have attached a graph.
You need to be very careful, because inflating by the 4.51% may put us above
legal levy limits. If you can hold off, we will see what the limits were in
each of these years. My fear is that you release this and get hit with the
fact that it would have been impossible due to levy limits. But this will take
a little time to check. Hit the tab at the bottom that says chart (to get
picture) or data to get numbers.

Your budget assumes state funding at the Joint Finance Committee-approved
levels. Given the uncertainty of the final budget deal, doesn’t the state
funding assumption put the county at risk of coming up far short?

Ed, apparently in the past DAS staff has passed the budgets out the

passed them out, immediately ahead of the speech. Please let me know your

I was remembering last night, maybe it was the wine, that when Terry was FABA
and Earl was the director, they used to have a post budget meeting, right after
we went to print, to talk about how the summer went and things that could be
done differnently to make it better. They would consult the analysts for input
but just the managers were there. It seemed to work pretty well for them
especially doing it right away while things were fresh. If you guys think this
would be a good exercise, I'll check in with the staff on any suggestions they
might have. Have a good weekend, Molly

Re: Fw: Copy of the budget proposal for the Wisconsin Law Journal
Friday, September 28, 2007 11:37:07 AM

Expenditures for the Courts remains about constant. $42.7 million in 2007 and
$42.9 million in 2009.
The 2008 budget had to make cuts to the Courts request because the Courts
assumed about $2.4 million in revenue that was really revenue to the Sheriff's
Department.
Proposed cuts to make up for this revenue included the unfunding or abolishment
of 15.5 positions for a savings of $900,000 from the requested budget submitted
by the Courts. Of the positions abolished/unfunded 6.5 FTE are vacant.
Positions impacted include interns, clerical workers and two vacant judicial
assistance.
Levy support the for the Courts is reduced by $634,206 -- from $36.7 million in
2007 to $36..0 million in 2008
The Courts budget assumes increased state revenue from the State Budget of $2.0
million. If State Budget fails to come through, the Chief Judge will have to
submit adjusted budget proposals.

Fran,
Thanks again for directing me to the budget information I needed.
I was hoping to get some comments from the county executive on court-related
issues including the elimination of staffing and what financial cuts are
proposed to the court system.
First, I was wondering how much of an overall cut in court spending was
proposed by Walker and where the major cuts would be made? What was his
rationale for making those cuts?
In reading over the budget summary, it appears that approximately 15 positions
are to be cut (based on the number of 275.2 in 07 and 260.6 in 08) Which areas
are those cuts proposed in and how much of a savings will that equate to.
The summary also noted more than $9.5 million for bailiff services in the
Courts and $329,600 for videoconferencing equipment, etc. Where would that
money come from and is that part of the budget plan?
If possible, could you please give me a call when you have a chance,
Thanks,

Re: Ordinance changes
Friday, September 28, 2007 2:02:28 PM

At some point in the process I asked analysts to prepare a list of items
requiring ordinance changes and items that were inconsistent with existing
resolutions. The second part was to make sure that our narratives were clear
if we were changing policy from existing ordinances. I will see if I can find
the list, but if not, I think Kat kept a copy.

Just a reminder that we will need to prepare and submit any Ordinance changes
required by the Recommended Budget to the Board prior to the Finance
Committee's deliberation on the specific budget. Obviously we will need one on
the sales tax -- I can't recall if there are any others. Let me know if you
need any help drafting these.

A letter printed in the Sunday paper is worthy of correction. The 2008 Budget that County
Executive Scott Walker presents this week will include Parks Director Sue Black’s
recommendation on staffing that will add more hours of work in the parks.
The budget plan abolishes 81 positions, of which only 50 are filled. These positions currently
provide approximately 85,000 labor hours annually.
In place of these full-time, year-round employees, the budget restructures the Parks staffing
pattern by creating 20 positions and providing $600,000 for seasonal employees. This modified
staffing plan will give the County 100,395 labor hours per year or an increase of 15,395 labor
hours over what is currently available.
Walker’s proposal provides more hours of work in the Parks while saving the taxpayers $3.0
million per year. Walker’s 2008 Budget also provides additional Parks funding for training,
supervision and over $1.1 million in more efficient parks maintenance equipment.
Furthermore, Black has indicated that using a more seasonal workforce would give the Parks
System the flexibility to put extra hours of work into the prime spring and summer season and
would therefore keep the parks better maintained during the time they are most in use.
This innovative plan will provide more hours of work, a significant taxpayer savings and improved
operation and maintenance of the Parks.

Milwaukee County

Re: Fw: Info from County Executive Walker
Friday, September 28, 2007 4:19:54 PM

The $2.4 million in revenue stays in the Sheriff's department. When the budget
requests came in, both the Sheriff and the Courts counted this revenue in their
budget. Obviously, we could not count the same revenue in two places. The
revenue has been accounted for in the Sheriff's department for quite some time
so we left it there in the 2008 budget. Our problem then became, how are we
going to backfill for $2.4 million in "revenue loss" in the Courts. For that
reason, we had to identify expenditure reductions to fill the hole that was
created by the Courts assuming revenue that was not really Court revenue. We
basically "filled the hole" by the staffing reductions noted below and by
taking a $1.39 million reduction as a lump sum reduction (vacancy and turnover)
in the Courts budget. Since the revenue should not have been included in the
Courts request, we had to find a way to "correct" the Courts budget once the
revenue was taken out.
The $5.6 million increase in county service charges reflects a change in the
way we are accounting for internal service charges. In the 2008 budget we are
budgeting these cost directly in department budgets and increasing their levy
to pay for it. These are internal service costs for things like information
technology support, facilities management, etc. Overall, this is really a wash
for the departments and the County as whole so the numbers I gave earlier
netted this out. For example, the budget book shows a levy increase for the
Courts of $5.8 million, but if you net out this accounting change for the real
increase or decrease over 2007, the levy change for the Courts is a reduction
of $634,206) noted on the bottom total. When I gave the expenditure numbers
earlier, I netted these costs out also to get a more accurate picture for
comparison purposes. If you look in the budget book, 2007 expenditures for the
Courts is $42,713,833 and in 2008 expenditures increased to $48,645,035 -- an
increase of $5,932,202. This increase is inflated because of the accounting
change noted above. That is, $5,690,828 (the amount of the internal service
charge increase) is not really an increase but rather a change in how we are
now accounting for these cost. The 2008 Expenditure number I provided below,
is net of these services charges or $42,954,207.
In essence, Court spending remains about the same, but the budget problem was
having to reduce their request to backfill for the revenue that should not have
been counted as Courts revenue. Hence, the reductions proposed in the 2008
budget.

        RE: Info from County Executive Walker






Thanks,
I had a couple of follow-up questions. It was my understanding from Bruce
Harvey that the $2.4 million in ticket revenue from the Sheriff’s department
was not going to be allotted to the courts…was that revenue shifted? Harvey
noted a budget of about 44 million for the courts and you list 42.7…which is
the one proposed by Walker?
I noticed the most significant number in the budget is the $5.6 million in
additional “county service charges” What exactly does that pertain to, and does
that figure mean more money for the courts? I notice the bottom line is an
additional $6 million or so, but I’ve heard that that money is for cross
checking charges for other departments and not necessarily for additional
CArcher_Email3015866

services.
If possible, could you relay these additional questions to the county executive
and reply back at your convenience. I am working on a Tuesday deadline.
Thanks and have a nice weekend.

Jack - The County Executive asked that I relay the following information to you
regarding your questions on the 2008 proposed budget:

Expenditures for the Courts remains about constant. $42.7 million in 2007 and
$42.9 million in 2009.
The 2008 budget had to make cuts to the Courts request because the Courts
assumed about $2.4 million in revenue that was really revenue to the Sheriff's
Office.
Proposed cuts to make up for this revenue included the unfunding or abolishment
of 15.5 positions for a savings of $900,000 from the requested budget submitted
by the Courts. Of the positions abolished/unfunded 6.5 FTE are vacant.
Positions impacted include interns, clerical workers and two vacant judicial
assistants.
Levy support the for the Courts is reduced by $634,206 -- from $36.7 million in
2007 to $36.0 million in 2008.
The Courts budget assumes increased state revenue from the State Budget of $2.0
million. If State Budget fails to come through, the Chief Judge will have to
submit adjusted budget proposals.
Your final question about bailiff services in Courts and videoconferencing
equipment - that is part of capital projects and not part of the court's
budget.

Molly, the below came up in Monday's meeting. Have we started on this? If
not, analysts should prepare a list of positions impacted by the budget
(abolished/unfunded) and indicate if we believe the positions to be filled or
vacant. We could perhaps then meet with HR to go over the list to see if they
agree with our assessment. Let me know your thoughts. We can discuss when I
get in.

        Positions at-risk in 2008 Budget





Cindy/Rob:
Were you going to get me a number of position actions in 2008 that may result
in layoffs? Cindy, below is the text we used in our Overview last year to
explain the position actions in the 2007 Recommended Budget. I'm trying to
recreate that as best I can with the understanding that this is a fluid
estimate. Thanks.
-SteveThe 2007 Recommended Budget continues the trend to reduce the number of funded
positions in order to reduce the tax levy. The 2006 Adopted Budget included
6,026 funded full-time equivalent (FTE) positions. The 2007 Recommended Budget
includes 5,632 funded FTE’s, a reduction of 394 from the 2006 amount.
According to preliminary information provided by the Director of Human
Resources, there are a total of 565 positions either abolished or unfunded. Of
these, approximately 316 are currently vacant. Of the remaining 249 positions,
75 are Deputy Sheriff 1 positions that may be partially double counted as part
of an initiative contained in the 2005 Adopted Budget to abolish 200 Deputy
Sheriff 1 positions, upon vacancy, and replace them with Correction Officer 1
positions. Setting these positions aside for a moment, that leaves 174 filled
positions that may be subject to layoff. It should be noted that the actual
number of layoffs cannot be determined at this time due to further attrition
and retirements, and may be subject to rules governing represented employees
contained in various labor agreements.

A couple of comments:
1). I assume that the entire $750k option price would count against the
purchase price if the option is exercised. Not just the $250k from us.
2). The exercise period of the option is at least as long as our original time
period to complete all our payments.
3) the payment of the option price is due no sooner than the end of the year.
4) upon payment of the option price discovery world would let MPM operate the
building under some sort of triple net lease arrangement since it appears
we're responsible for the costs.
5) M&I will take responsibility for securing county approval.
6) the Bradley foundation explicitly endorses this change
7). Any capital improvements paid for by MPM would be deducted from any JA
lease npv before splitting the "profit" with discovery world
8). M&I is responsible for securing Chase approval
More to follow. These are just my initial thoughts.

John –
Thanks again for your time this morning with Dennis.
As requested, the intent of this email is to review the potential resolution
discussed near the end of our meeting.

- MPM would make a $750,000 cash payment to DW at close. DW would retain
their existing space and would release MPM from any purchase obligations.
- In return for the cash payment, MPM would have the option to purchase the
space from DW with $250,000 of the payment at close being a credit towards the
option purchase price. The option purchase price would be further impacted by
maintenance and improvement costs associated with holding the space.
- If there is a lease signed between DW and JA and the value of the lease
(NPV including all costs) is in excess of the option purchase price, DW and MPM
will split that value.

Dennis and I will be working to provide more detail on the alternatives
discussed above in order to provide a greater level of clarity. We expect to
have that completed next week.
Thanks.

Following the discussions that have been occurring between the parties through
today and despite progress in those discussions, there are still unresolved
issues between Discovery World, Chase and M&I banks, and MPM. Consequently, we
do not have a completed agreement as we had intended by this date. With
CArcher_Email3015886

respect to the outstanding bond issues, we understand those bonds will be
redeemed on Monday. Related interest rate swaps on the issues will also be
extinguished at that time.
MPM will not be making the transfer of $112,500 to the Chase account per the
draft agreement until these remaining issues are resolved and we have agreement
from all parties. We intend to work through the remaining issues as quickly as
possible to achieve resolution.

        DW Building






Yesterday afternoon, Dan received a call from Kevin Lindsey concerning the DW
building. They are wanting to delay closing with MPM on the building for a
period of time (45 days was discussed) to allow time for another organization
to do its due diligence and potentially make an offer to buy the building.
There are obviously a significant amount of issues that arise with this
development. The purpose of this note is to make you aware of the situation. We
are trying to think through our response to this and will want your input as
well. At this point, we would like to keep this at a low profile until we work
out our response.
I have spoken to both Chase and M&I about the situation. Chase would still
like to go ahead and close on the bank portion of the deal. I do not have a
response from M&I at this point. I have also been in touch with Bill Domina on
this as any change in direction would require the County's consent.

Not yet. Not sure if it will blow the whole thing. In fact, from the bank's
perspective, this may be looked on as a good thing.
From the point of view of the Bradley Challenge Grant, it required the issue be
resolved to the satisfaction of all parties - not
that MPM necessarily buy the building. My greater concern is the further
impact on our capital campaign, our strategic plans, and our image/credibility
in the community. There are obviously other hurdles that are associated with
the ground lease and the County use approval for the building.

Mark,
Thank you for your comments and observations. I understand the actions Chase
Bank has taken and proposes to pursue, as well as the timetable you have
outlined for further actions on Chase’s part. There are currently productive
discussions underway with Discovery World, M&I and myself, representing the
Museum as Chairman of their Board.
I believe that we will reach resolution, satisfactory to all parties, very
shortly. I would like to talk with you about our progress and what I perceive
to be an outcome favorable to all. I’m available to talk with you at
312-596-1628. Please call.
Thank you.
John

Subject: Re: MPM Debt Service Payment

        On Monday, October 1st, the three outstanding bonds that Chase had
financed for MPM were redeemed and funded by draws on the three letters of
credit that had been provided. The principal balance of the three obligations
total $13.2mm. Chase has accrued and past due interest of $124g through
10/1/07. This represents the un-reimbursed interest draws on the three bonds
that were payable for the months of July, August and September. Chase also
incurred letters of credit processing fees on the interest draws on the three
bonds for the three month period of $2g. We also terminated interest rate
swaps on the bonds, leaving an outstanding termination fee of $23g due from
MPM.
        Since the contemplated restructure has not been consummated, Chase has
only one avenue open to it at this time. The current agreements we have with
MPM, M&I and the County are in full force and effect. Chase is not making a
demand for repayment of the monies due under our current agreements today.
However, we believe that we have the right to do so. The restructured
agreement is not yet agreed upon and we have not been paid the sums due to us
under the current or the contemplated agreement. This situation needs to be
addressed now.
        Chase views the Discovery World issue differently than some of the
CArcher_Email3015897

other parties to this transaction. I know most of you have heard us say this
before. Discovery World entered into a contract with MPM. It's a bad contract
for many reasons.   The building is not worth $6mm. It's not worth $3mm. If
it were that valuable, Discovery World should sell to someone else and pursue
their legal rights. The proposed terms of the restructure are very beneficial
to the owners of Discovery World.   MPM is under financial duress. They cannot
afford to buy the building. Our loan agreements prohibit them from doing so
without our consent. We have been told the Discovery World issue needs to be
resolved as part of the overall restructure. We understand the rationale why
some of the parties feel that way, but now the Discovery World issue has
created an impasse. This impasse and the inordinate delay are negatively
affecting the financial interests of Chase and jeopardizing the immediate
future of MPM.    Yes, we have the tail wagging the dog.
        Chase will wait until next Monday, October 8th, in the hope that the
impasse with Discovery World will be resolved. On Tuesday, October 9th, I will
instruct our counsel to withdraw the signature pages for the restructure
agreement that Chase has executed and send formal notice of our rescission of
the restructure proposal.   We will then look to our current agreement and
assess our available options.
        I know that the MPM officers and its Board of Directors, the two banks
and the County have worked very hard to stay true to the spirit of the
transaction and have acted in good faith to conclude the restructure
agreement. At this point, the credibility of the transaction and the parties
involved has been damaged by the Discovery World impasse. I urge you to
resolve it before we all lose the benefits of the contemplated restructure.

Hi SteveAs requested, here is a spreadsheet that will calculate the amount that should
be included for amendments dealing with positions. It includes salary, social
security and the active portion of the fringe benefits costs. All you will need
is the salary amount for the position and the rest will calculate. I did a few
examples including a restore, an abolish and a restore of 2.0 FTEs.
Any changes in V&T, Special Premium, Overtime or Shift Differential should only
include salary and social security. Also, for seasonal positions, the social
security should be 1.45%, not 7.65% so you would need to adjust the
spreadsheet.
Please let me know if you have questions.
Thanks,

        October Board Cycle





Hi Cindy. We should talk today about preparation for the October Board cycle,
as I believe the deadline for reports is Tuesday. In particular, we should
discuss whether we need/want to do a countywide fiscal update. Manske and I
discussed briefly when you were out and he said he would throw some numbers
together for us to look at. My sense is that the situation will look much
better in light of the land sale progress, BHD's Medicaid cost settlement, and
plugging in the Transit/CMO savings for 2007 -- the question is how/when to
report this.

Don't get me wrong, I did not want you to mention it I was just trying to
recall if I was correct. The next issue is what would be the cost if we were
to fund ECP raises? or is it our argument that since most ECPs are budgeted at
the top step, it is the expectation that department's can absorb it. I still
would like to know how much we are talking about. Also, I do not recall during
briefings making decisions to budget $ in special premium for ECP raises.
Which departments did we do this in? Why some departments and not others and
did we brief the CEX on it?

Yes, I did not mention ECP on purpose. They were not given wage increases or
steps in the 2008 base budget. That was because most of those positions were
budgeted at the top step in 2005 and are typically over funded County-wide. We
did let departments add Special Premium when they had a concern about paying
for an ECP increase. Molly is aware of this and DAS should look at all of these
positions for the 2009 Base and make the proper salary adjustments.

Molly, if there is any savings related to the Child Support memo we should
discuss funding the restoration of these positions with those savings. I am
open to other ideas for finding funding but I don't think we can ignore this
(i.e., we need to propose correction). What is the DAS V&T and can any of this
be funding that way?

Subject: Deputy
In State Statutes 59.43 and 59.40 it actually requires that the ROD and County
Clerk have Deputy positions. I

In the mean time here is the cost break down for each position
and what the increased V&T would need to be to cover the change.
Call me at home with questions. Again, sorry I did not catch this. It had not
come up in prior years.
Deputy ROD: Salary = $66,817, total cost including salary, social security and
the active portion of ringe benefits is $94,024. If we increase V&T to cover
the cost, the approximate V&T for the ROD would be 7.56% on 44.6 FTEs (total
V&T salary would be $139,840).
Deputy Clerk: Salary = $59,022, total cost including salary, social security
and the active portion of ringe benefits is $84,714. If we increase V&T to
cover the cost, the approximate V&T for the Clerk would be 22.27% on 6.59 FTEs
(total V&T salary would be $103,533).

Saturday, October 06, 2007 6:14:59 AM

Regarding the shots from yesterdays Finance Committee meeting -- you have
always been consistent with your position on unfunded state mandates regardless
of which budget assumptions (JFC, Senate, Assembly) we used. You have also
been consistent with your message of big spending and taxing in Madison. It is
about the state stepping up and funding its core obligations and not sticking
it to property tax payers. If the state could manage like local governments
have to and get its priorities straight, this could be done without raising
taxes.

As you can see, it pained me to sit through it yesterday....:). Hang in
there. I am sure there is much more of this to come.

    Subject: Fleet Budget Agreement
Cindy,
I spoke with George this morning to confirm he is an agreeance with our earlier
communication with Fleet's Bill Tietjen last week.
In summary, George is fine with leaving the $200k that DAS placed in the Fleet
Budget as vacancy and turnover, rather than moving it down to other service and
commodity accounts as discussed last week. George and the Fleet Management
Division believes it best to leave it here given the greater posibility of
achieving savings through Division personnel accounts (i.e. attrition) than
through reducitons in outside services and commodities.
It's also understood that DAS intends to make Fleet Management the owner of the
newly acquired Parks equipment in 2008, in conformance with past practice.
This will provide them revenue through equipment rental from the Parks Division.
No official 2008 budget ammendment / correction is required if we proceed this
way.

Hi Vanessa,
The changes we need for our 2008 budget are as follows: Add $10,000 in revenue
to account 3599. This revenue represents a spinal contract we have entered
into with the Medical College of Wisconsin Department of Neurosurgery. The
Medical College will reimburse the ME's office for the use of a recovery room
at a rate of $825.   We estimate between 10-15 recoveries per year. Also,
please reduce account #5201 (overtime) by $20,000. Please add the net amount
of $30,000 to account #6148 to pay for the fellow in 2008. Also, can we change
the narrative to reflect that we will fund the fellow for 1/2 year?

unit. The org charts should include funded and unfunded FTE. The Committee
would like to see your current (2007) organizational charts and your 2008
organizational chart as recommended in the 2008 CEX budget.
The instruction of the Committee was to get these ASAP. Please submit the
above, no later than Friday, October 12, to Catherine Koper in DAS and we will
compile and submit them to the County Board for review.
Thank you.

Sue called to say that the estate of a man left $50,000 to the Parks and she
understands the money is being held up somewhere and can't be used.
She wants to use the money for benches, stuff for the pools etc. and thinks his
family would be unhappy if they found out we used it for paying utility bills
or something else along those lines.

Please submit your ordinance changes to me and Rob at the same time you submit
to Corp Counsel.
As for the list below, we did not put in the narrative the provision to
eliminate the local match for roads even though Walker said he wanted it not
did Walker talk about it on the highlights document or public hearing -therefore in my opinion, this item is not in the budget and therefore requires
no ordinance change.
I am not sure there is an ordinance change related to ES since the list of
crimes came from a resolution and not an ordinance and since we are in
compliance with the existing resolution and the budget narrative is
consistent. Check with HOC to see if an ordinance change is required on any
other components of our initiative.
I am not sure that the change in the use of land sale funds is an ordinance or
if it was just a resolution in the form of a budget that was passed. It if is
the latter, there would be no need for ordinance change but this will need to
be verified.
Obviously, we did not give Parks citation authority so this can come off the
list.
I also doubt we need an ordinance to authorize the Parks director to work with
Hales Corner unless it conflicts with her fee setting autority in ordinance -please call parks and check with legal.
To be safe, I would go back through your budgets and contact your departments
to be sure we have not missed anything.

Hi,
It's related to a donation from an estate earlier this summer that was put into
our 8588 account by a fund transfer. Sue wants to spend some of it and is
working with the family to determine their wishes. The money is frozen in our
8588 encumbrance of $383,000.
Can you release the $50k.
Let me know.

SECTION 1.
Section 20.01 of the General Ordinances of Milwaukee County, up to and including
_______, is hereby amended as follows:
20.01. Cost of maintaining prisoners at county jail and house of correction.
The cost of maintenance for prisoners confined in county jail or the house of correction
for violation of city or village ordinances, resolutions or bylaws is hereby fixed at the per
diem cost of each establishment as determined by the county department of
administration on April 1 of each year and based upon out of pocket expenses of the
preceding calendar year for each separate institution. The sheriff and superintendent of
the house of correction, respectively, shall at regular intervals bill cities and villages for
the above maintenance charges of their prisoners, and shall specify therein such data as
may reasonably be required for such purposes.
Each prisoner listed in s. 303.08(4), Wis. Stats. Is liable for charges in an amount of
twenty one dollars and fifty cents ($21.50) per day which represents the cost of his/her
board in the jail or house of correction if confined pursuant to s. 303.08, Wis. Stats.,

not to exceed costs, for random urine tests for controlled substances which result in a
positive finding. And if the result of the random test is positive, the superintendent may
impose a reasonable charge, not to exceed the cost for regular follow-up urine tests for
all controlled substances. The county department of administration on April 1 of each
year shall render a report to the county board detailing the costs of maintenance and
board experienced for the preceding calendar year. The sheriff and superintendent of
the house of correction shall charge the account of each prisoner gainfully employed
accordingly and shall collect and disburse to the county treasurer all such proceeds from
the wages or salaries of employed prisoners.
SECTION 2.
The provisions of this Ordinance shall become effective upon passage and publication.

maintenance correction regarding unfunded/abolished positions. Right now, I am
doing one final review of the replacement pages to make sure everything is
correct.
I have one question on the parks fee schedule- the fee schedule is pretty big
and it is new information that was not previously included in the recommended
budget. Are we sure we want to consider this a technical correction or would it
be better to include it in a separate memo to the board today? I have not
formatted the correction page yet and it may be easier to just send it down in
a separate memo.

FYI - It appears an ordinance change is required for the ECD split. Below is
the current language that will need to be amended. Dan agreed to begin working
on new ECD ordinance language for review. I did not see anything related to
land sales and assume we are safe there.
32.96. Real estate.
Manage, sell and acquire real estate for the county and administer the home
repair loan programs. Specific responsibilities include managing and leasing
improved and unimproved properties, including air space parking lots for the
state department of transportation (WIDOT). County surplus real estate and tax
deed foreclosure properties in the county suburbs are sold by the division. Low
or no interest loans are provided to limited income homeowners to repair their
homes and assistance is provided to homeowners in determining the best method
of repair, selecting a reputable contractor and inspector to assure that
quality work is performed at a reasonable cost.
32.97. Housing choice voucher program.
Manage the federally funded Housing Choice Voucher Program that subsidizes the
rent of eligible low-income households living in privately owned housing
throughout the county.
32.98. Special needs.
Manage the federally funded Safe Haven and Shelter Care Plus programs that
provide shelter and rent subsidy services to homeless individuals who are
seriously mentally ill, AIDS-HIV infected or alcohol/drug dependent.

Re: Fw: Legacy Cost Adjustment
Tuesday, October 09, 2007 4:57:50 PM

We did not attempt to use CSE savings to fix parks. We talked about it, but we
never formally proposed it.
I talked to Cady and I think the issue is we need to sit down and talk and
agree on what a "significant" change in positions means. What is the
threshold? When the Board restores the Parks positions tomorrow, should we not
also redistribute the legacy at that time since we did it with Child Support or
do we leave it and do it at end? And what is the rationale for doing so?

        Re: Fw: Legacy Cost Adjustment






The plan originally was to only reallocate legacy at the end if they made a
large change in personnel. However, once we decided to attempt to fix parks by
using the legacy savings from reallocating to CSE, we opened the door to the
board to reallocate legacy with other amendments. I don't believe they will
move legacy unless there are a large number of positions or substantial revenue
involved but with the CSE amendment, we have already shown them our methodology
for reallocating legacy. My guess would be that Cady wouldn't agree to not
move legacy any longer if there were levy savings to be gotten by doing so.

Molly, can we talk about this? My understanding is with amendments (with the
exception of the large child support one) we are not modifying or recommending
to Board staff the spreading of legacy cost. I hope analysts are not advising
Board staff to the contrary. I thought the plan the was to respread at the
very end. Correct? Maybe we need to sit down with Cady and make sure we are
all on the same page regarding this issue. We should be consistent with the
exception of a large position action where we would need to think it through.

Revised 8000 Personnel Changes Table.xls

Rob, I know I can be somewhat of perfectionist but the degree of corrections we
are having to make to narratives is quite troubling to me. The numbers in the
narratives should have all been checked against BRASS. More troubling to me is
the general attitude from staff and Molly that these changes are no big deal
and we always have them and usually just throw them in at the end. My
inclination is to raise the bar on expectations when it comes to this issue.
In essence, even if this was acceptable in the past, I think we can do better.
Rich made the comment to me yesterday that it was amazing that ADS could not
get it right, but Board staff could catch all this stuff in just one week. I
think our standard and expectations should be higher. I might feel different
if I got the sense that staff shared some amount of concern over the errors but
they seem to feel it is no big deal. Take a look at the memo I sent down
yesterday. I would be interested in your thoughts on this matter.

By the way, from what I am being told there will be many more corrections as we
move along and that is "normal". At a minimum, when errors started to be
detected I would have expected staff to review their budgets again in detail
with departments to identify and further corrections now for inclusion in the
memo so that we could head all this off. When I was an analysts, (I know I
sound old when I say this), we were taught and expected to check and recheck
and check again before the budget went to print. As large as the State Budget
is, we did not have this level of corrections.

I guess to can see this is really starting to get under my skin....:)

One option would be for me to meet with staff and let them know that I think we
can do better than this. Give them direction to go back through all their
narratives again, call on assistance from their departments, and we write one
more correction memo that we get out on Monday AM in an attempt to get this
behind us and to communicate to them that this is not acceptable. Rich told me
that rolling up errors at the end in one big document has never been acceptable
to him. He would like to know them now. Also I think rolling them up and
sliding them in at the end minimizes staff accountability which I am trying to
reinforce.

Let me know your thoughts.

PS- Now that I think about it, I think my reaction is not so much about the
errors themself, but more about the general attitude that this is no big deal
and it "is always like this." ugh!

Subject: Re: V&T memo
This generally looks fine except for a few typo's (the word "requested is
misspelled in the first sentence and a word is missing from the first sentence
in the second paragraph). My only question/concern is regarding the very last
sentence, when we say departments have been deliberately unfunding positions
instead of putting them in V&T in order to gain the fringe savings. This sort
of leads the reader hanging. Do we need to add a sentence to say what we're
doing about this, i.e. abolishing positions unfunded for more than a year, or
explaining the impact of this?

V&T memo

Here is my draft of the V&T memo. I will have analysts work on the conversion
of vt&T and unfundeds tomorrow if the memo sounds good to you guys. Jerry and
Steve wanted me to write it and they would edit it after. I'm not sure of

SUBJECT

: Explanation of Calculation of Vacancy & Turnover in the 2008 Recommended Budget
At the October 9, 2007 meeting of the Committee on Finance and Audit, an explanation was
reqeusted by the Department of Administrative Services, County Board staff and the Department of
Audit on the calculation of vacancy and turnover as included in the 2008 County Executive
Recommended Budget. In addition the Committee requested a historical comparison of the
calculation of vacancy and turnover.
Vacancy and Turnover is calculated by taking the net salary amount (Gross Salary less vacancy and
turnover reduction) for a department and dividing the into the gross salary. An example is included
below.
1001 – Department of Audit
Gross Salary

$1,196,119

Vacancy & Turnover Reduction
Net Salary

($40,231)
$1,155,888

Percentage of Gross Wages Funded

96.6%

Supervisor Quindel raised the issue of unfunded positions. Positions that have been unfunded are
no longer counted in the gross or net salary funds of the department and are therefore not a part of
the calculation of vacancy and turnover. An example below is included of the impact on vacancy
and turnover if unfunded positions were funded and then a vacancy and turnover reduction included
to offset the salary increase.
1001 – Department of Audit
Gross Salary
Fund 3 unfunded positions
New Gross Salary

$1,196,119
$127,903
$1,324,022

Vacancy & Turnover Reduction

Adjusted V&T
New Net Salary

($127,903)
($168,134)
$1,155,888

Percentage of Gross Wages Funded

87.3%

CArcher_Email3015971

Attached to this report is a schedule showing the adjusted percentage of Gross Wages Funded if
positions that were unfunded in 2007 and 2008 were funded and vacancy and turnover taken
instead. This adjustment has been made for 2007 and 2008 to provide policy makers with the
ability to see the change in position resources for departments from 2007 to 2008.
Historical Background
The methodology for calculating vacancy and turnover has not changed from prior years. The one
change of note is the treatment of fringe benefits when it comes to calculating vacancy and
turnover.
Prior to the 2007 Adopted Budget, when a department entered a reduction in their budget for
vacancy and turnover, fringe benefit savings were also calculated. The 2007 Adopted Budget
changed this methodology and fringe benefit savings were no longer calculated when vacancy and
turnover reductions were taken. This was done to attempt to recognize that vacancy and turnover
should be budgeted by a department to reflect only the savings anticipated from gaps in staffing
while hiring to replace individuals. If used in this manner, vacancy and turnover would not produce
fringe savings since positions are being filled. Unfunded positions have and continue to produce
fringe benefit savings when departments unfund a position. The result of the change in this
methodology is that some departments began to unfund a larger number of positions and reduce
their vacancy and turnover amount in order to capture the fringe benefit savings.

Please see my attached suggestions.

I do not agree that V&T and the decision to unfund positions are
interchangeable. The programmatic and policy reasons and impacts on
departments are different between the two. I think mixing the two as was done
on the table implies they are one and the same.

I would like to see the attached table that goes with the memo.

We can discuss when I get in if you like.

It should be noted that vacancy and turnover savings are meant to capture the natural turnover of
positions that occur during the year and the savings that occur between the time the position
becomes vacant and is filled and the salary savings that may occur when more senior staff leave
their budgeted position are replaced with less senior lower paid staff. Unfunded positions on the
other hand reflect the decision, either by departments when they submit their budget request or by
policymakers when acting on budgets, to leave a position vacant for the entire year. Decisions to
unfund positions should not be confused with the purpose of vacancy and turnover when comparing
department budgets. Unlike budgeted vacancy and turnover where departments are expected to
meet the reduction in order to balance their budget, unfunded positions may be filled during the year
if departments successfully receive additional unexpected revenue or realize savings in their budget
sufficient to fund the position.
Attached to this report is a schedule showing the adjusted percentage of Gross Wages Funded if
positions that were unfunded in 2007 and 2008 were funded and vacancy and turnover taken
instead. This adjustment has been made for 2007 and 2008 to provide policy makers with the
ability to see the change in position resources for departments from 2007 to 2008.
Historical Background
The methodology for calculating vacancy and turnover has not changed from prior years. The one
change of note is the treatment of fringe benefits when it comes to calculating vacancy and
turnover.
Prior to the 2007 Adopted Budget, when a department entered a reduction in their budget for
vacancy and turnover, fringe benefit savings were also calculated. The 2007 Adopted Budget
changed this methodology and fringe benefit savings were no longer calculated when vacancy and
turnover reductions were taken. This was done to attempt to recognize that vacancy and turnover
should be budgeted by a department to reflect only the savings anticipated from gaps in staffing

fringe benefit savings when departments unfund a position. The result of the change in this
methodology is that some departments began to unfund a larger number of positions and reduce
their vacancy and turnover amount in order to capture the fringe benefit savings.
Lastly, it could be argued that if department propose to unfund a position (leave vacant) for two or
more budget cycles that the position is therefore no longer needed by the department and that the
position should be removed from the system. For this reason, DAS implemented the practice of
removing (abolishing) such positions if departments were unable to provide a sufficient reason for
needing to carry the vacancy for two or more years. The abolishment of long-term vacancies is a
standard budget practice intended to ensure an accurate portrayal of staffing levels required to meet
programmatic responsibly and to ensure departments do not inadvertently receive approval to fill
positions for which there is no funding.

RE:

Parks Budget for 2008

My county budget proposal for 2008 is better for the parks than the 2007 budget. In total,
our plan will provide nearly 20,000 MORE hours of labor in the parks on an annual basis.
That impact becomes even larger when you realize that the parks system will be able to
move most of those hours to the primetime of parks usage by the public (spring, summer
and early fall).
In addition, we invest more than $1.1 million in new equipment to provide more effective
and efficient maintenance of the parks system. This is part of our $12.9 million
investment in parks infrastructure in the 2008 capital budget proposal.
Finally, Supervisors who complain about the status of the parks in 2007 should remember
that a majority of the members of the County Board voted to restore similar full-time
positions in the budget last fall, but only provided funding for 25% of those positions.
This was the primary reason I vetoed the entire budget last year.
In other words, the budget in 2007 for the parks system is entirely the budget passed by
the County Board. It is a testament to the hard work of the parks staff that they were able
to get as much done as they did this year considering the budget given to them by the
County Board.
Now some will note that the remaining 75% of funding was to come from the settlement
of employee contracts, but that was not enough to cover the gap. I warned everyone last
fall and it is interesting to see how short memories are on this subject.
Bottom-line: please do not short change the parks system again. If your main objective is
to restore full-time, year-round jobs, be honest about the costs and put in the tax levy
needed, but if your main objective is to restore greatness to the parks, approve our plan
and put nearly 20,000 more hours of labor into the parks system.
Thank you for your attention to this important matter.

The document that is linked here appears to indicate that all of the extra
Courts funding and obviously Shared Revenue has been deleted from the
Governor's budget. That's a hit of $980,000 and $2 million respectively. It
also indicates that $3.8 million of the Youth Aids increase has been deleted.
It is hard to tell what that means, but the total Youth Aids increase over the
biennium was originally $27 million, so if there is also another reduction in
the rate -- which has been rumored -- then it is possible we are OK here. We
obviously need to get more details, but we should also probably discuss
strategy with the County Executive today.

Below is a link to a document that was released late this afternoon the

Special Session Budget. When we spoke with the Legislative Fiscal Bureau
this afternoon, they said their analysis of the new budget proposal would be
available Monday. After it is released, we should be able to provide more
detailed analysis.
The good news is that the document indicates that the $8.5 million in
general purpose revenue for child support is included! At this point,
Senate leadership has said they will heed Governor Doyle's call and take up
his bill, probably on Monday. The Assembly has not given any such
assurances.

I believe that this position is still the subject of discussion between IMSD

        DAS Study





Hi Cindy:
Did DAS prepare a position study for this item?
07-295
From Interim Chief Information Officer, IMSD-DAS, requesting authorization to
abolish one Application Specialist 4 position and create one Program and
Planning Analyst position in the Department of Administrative Services,
Information Management Services Division. (Also to Committee on Finance and
Audit, DAS-HR,

A memo from DHR dated 7/12/07 withdrew this request for the July cycle but
wanted to have it scheduled in September before Personnel. The item was not
scheduled because there was no DAS study.

Last night I was provided a draft of POB legislation that is being considered
by Rep. Stone. It appears to have some key differences to the draft by Sen.
Coggs, that I believe the POB Work Group supports. Obviously, having differing
versions isn't going to expedite the legislative approval process.

Re: Message from Cindy
Friday, October 12, 2007 7:00:01 AM

Let me clarify the below. The main focus here should be that figures used
(dollars and positions) in the narratives match what is in BRASS and that the
position tables are correct and match the narratives that refer to the position
tables. Simply relying on departments to tell you something is wrong will not
be sufficient. I am asking that you recheck your narratives and position
tables against BRASS.

The goal here is to try to best of our ability to make corrections in one last
"sweep" instead of having them pop up day to day.

Please do your best on this. It affects our collective credibility.

Please turn any corrections into to Kat before you leave today and she will
compile them for memo on Monday.

Thank you.

I would like each of you to go back through your assigned budgets again in an
attempt to identify any remaining errors that need correction. The goal is to
identify them now and send down one last correction memo on Monday instead of
having errors bubble up throughout the rest of the process. I understand that
this is a different approach from the past practice of sending them all down at

I don't think this will come up before Monday, so lets just include it in the
memo on Monday. We won't present it as technical correction but rather in
response to a request for more detailed table. Then the more detailed table
will be included in the final budget.

My concern about just sending it to Johnson today is that Rich will get upset.
He is being very funny about the process of what goes to Finance members and
how things are distributed. I fear he will find out that we gave Johnson
something that was not given to all members and that he was not aware of it.
Therefore, I think the simplest way to deal with it is include in the Monday
memo as a clarification item (not a correction). Then I think we have covered
our bases. :)

Subject: Re: Fw: DHHS Personnel Table - 2nd Revision
This is the table related to the change in the Child Welfare program. The
table was technically correct in terms of the number of positions, but I
aggregated it into a single line, which, while correct, did not exactly follow
the narrative. I just disaggregated the data.
The second change, the Housing Program Assistants, is again something that was
technically correct, but could be more informative if presented in this way.
This should go down with the rest of the changes on Monday.
I think, really, both can go down on Monday, although, based on the first
change, I think we should also send it under separate cover to Supervisor
Johnson since he asked about that specifically.
Thanks,
Dan

Can you have someone do an estimate of the savings if Milwaukee County had a
half-time Board and no Board staff. I think you might have some of this
already given the work you did on an earlier proposal. I won't need this until
sometime mid next week. Thanks.

Org. No._____________
Date: _____________
3. Reallocate the $598,379$598,382 for seasonal maintenance funding to Personal
Services by deleting the budget narrative on page 9000-5 as follows:
•

“Provide $598,379 in additional seasonal maintenance funding.”

4. Increase funding for the repair and maintenance of park buildings for a tax levy
increase of $105,415.

The budget narrative on page 9000-6 is modified as

follows:
•

“Repair and maintenance of buildings is reduced maintained at the 2007 level
of $105,415, from $165,888 in 2007 to $60,473 in 2008, based on prior year
actual amounts.”

5. Modify abatements of countywide crosscharges for a tax levy increase/decrease
of $. The budget narrative on page 9000-6 is modified as follows:
•

“The abatement of countywide crosscharges is discontinued in 2008. The tax
levy previously held in the servicing department is redistributed to the
recipient departments in an amount corresponding to the crosscharges. This
results in a tax levy redistribution equal to the change in abatements. Due
primarily to this change in methodology, direct tax levy for this department
decreased increased $1,602,307$1,289,929. The actual change in tax levy
for this department from 2007 is a decrease of $37,699$2,929,935.”

This amendment would increase tax levy by $2,892,236$2,996,346.

Here is a draft response. We should talk about it at 4:00. Rob, quickly read
it and thinks it should be toned down (which he is usually right). Anyway,
lets discuss at 4:00.

My county budget proposal for 2008 includes a provision to remove the sunset that
allowed for excess county sales tax to be used for pre-funding employee benefits. Had
this provision been allowed to sunset, excess sales tax for 2008 would have been directed
towards the cash financing of additional capital improvement projects.
I have recommended the repeal of this sunset because I believe any other use of excess
sales tax (that beyond what is required to pay outstanding debt service) does nothing
more than encourage additional spending. As enacted in 1991, the intent of the county
sales tax was to provide property tax relief. However, from 1992 to 2002, the property
tax levy rose by 55%.
As you are aware the 2008 Budget includes a responsible capital program at
approximately $30 million consistent with County policy. I see no need to dedicate even
more resources towards capital projects in 2008 just because there is an apparent revenue
stream to support it. On the other hand, in 2008 the County has an existing obligation to
contribute over $38.8 million toward the employee pension fund. These costs must be
funded and the continued use of excess sales tax revenue ensures that these cost are not
entirely shifted onto the property tax levy.
In closing, my position on sales tax is consistent. I do not support using the existing sales
tax revenues nor do I support a new sales tax for the purpose of increasing county
government spending.

Rob, I think your edits look good. Go ahead and shoot it to Ed and Nardelli if
you are comfortable with it. We should probably get this down there right away
because this issue will come up again when the Committee takes up the Parks
budget. You recall that Rich mentioned using excess sales tax for the Parks
department which is totally inconsistent with SKW position since they would be
using it so they can add spending to Parks. The letter might help dampen this
idea.

Thanks for you help on this.

Given that we proposed the elimination of UW Extension funding in the CEX
budget, the timing of the below sucks. Someone should call Parks and tell them
not to send this right now or to withdraw it if already sent. If this is
needed they can do if after the budget passes.

Nature in the Parks Contract

ISSUE
The Parks Director is requesting the authority to pay for services rendered by the University of
Wisconsin-Madison Extension for the “Nature in the Parks” program within Milwaukee County Parks.
The contract payment authority has been traditionally granted to the Parks Director by language included
in the Adopted Budget Narrative. In 2006 and 2007, the language granting the Parks Director this
authority was inadvertently deleted. This requests restores this authority for both 2006 and 2007. The
base funding for the 2006 and 2007 contracts are allocated in the BRASS Budgeting System.
BACKGROUND
For the past 20+ years, the Milwaukee County Parks has annually partnered with the University of
Wisconsin-Madison Extension to provide nature based educational opportunities throughout the County
Parks, with a primary focus on Wehr Nature Center.
The primary objective of this annual intergovernmental agreement is to provide additional resources and
expertise to the Parks Department in the following manner.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

Conduct Environmental Education programs with an emphasis on youth.
Conduct “Nature in the Parks” education programs.
Provide a Natural Areas Resource Management Specialist position.
Provide a Land Manager position.
Provide a Volunteer Coordinator position.

The total cost for the Nature in the Parks program is $213,000 for calendar years 2006 and 2007. This
amount is significantly lower than the costs would be if the Parks Department were to implement this
program on it own. The primary costs saving associated with this agreement are related to the costs of
fringe benefits paid by the county versus the cost of fringe benefits paid by the State of Wisconsin.
RECOMMENDATION
Based on the conditions listed above, the Parks Director respectfully recommends that she be given the
authorized to continue the intergovernmental agreement between the County and the University of
Wisconsin-Madison Extension for both 2006 and 2007.

They will hold off on this until we talk. At minimum we should hold until

Given that we proposed the elimination of UW Extension funding in the CEX
budget, the timing of the below sucks. Someone should call Parks and tell them
not to send this right now or to withdraw it if already sent. If this is
needed they can do if after the budget passes.

Parks is passing down a memo to the Board requesting the authority to pay for
services rendered by the University of Wisconsin-Madison Extension for the
“Nature in the Parks” program within Milwaukee County Parks (please see
attachment). This language was not inlcuded in the dept's requested budget. I
sent Jim an email requesting where this $$$ is located in BRASS (07 and 08

Nature in the Parks Contract

ISSUE
The Parks Director is requesting the authority to pay for services rendered by the University of
Wisconsin-Madison Extension for the “Nature in the Parks” program within Milwaukee County Parks.
The contract payment authority has been traditionally granted to the Parks Director by language included
in the Adopted Budget Narrative. In 2006 and 2007, the language granting the Parks Director this
authority was inadvertently deleted. This requests restores this authority for both 2006 and 2007. The
base funding for the 2006 and 2007 contracts are allocated in the BRASS Budgeting System.
BACKGROUND
For the past 20+ years, the Milwaukee County Parks has annually partnered with the University of
Wisconsin-Madison Extension to provide nature based educational opportunities throughout the County
Parks, with a primary focus on Wehr Nature Center.
The primary objective of this annual intergovernmental agreement is to provide additional resources and
expertise to the Parks Department in the following manner.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

Conduct Environmental Education programs with an emphasis on youth.
Conduct “Nature in the Parks” education programs.
Provide a Natural Areas Resource Management Specialist position.
Provide a Land Manager position.
Provide a Volunteer Coordinator position.

The total cost for the Nature in the Parks program is $213,000 for calendar years 2006 and 2007. This
amount is significantly lower than the costs would be if the Parks Department were to implement this
program on it own. The primary costs saving associated with this agreement are related to the costs of
fringe benefits paid by the county versus the cost of fringe benefits paid by the State of Wisconsin.
RECOMMENDATION
Based on the conditions listed above, the Parks Director respectfully recommends that she be given the
authorized to continue the intergovernmental agreement between the County and the University of
Wisconsin-Madison Extension for both 2006 and 2007.

Rob, et al:
I had received the e-mail shortly before you sent yours and was poring over its
contents. It would appear that this is indeed good news. I certainly think it
prudent to take the steps that Rob has recommended. My concern here, at least
in the early going with this new division, is ensuring some measure of
continuity in operations; if that can be accomplished using these admin dollars
to restore this position, then I think that's what we ought to do.
Also, I have contacted Patty Yunk regarding making Danel Crawford's position
available. Patty is drawing up a MOU that lays out what the contract
provides. This can be done; it's a matter of who might be available and
qualified asap to fill the position, and whether that individual will be
willing to take the position on an emergency or temp appointment, understanding
that it is possible they could be bumped from it. If we can fill another HPA
with a small investment of levy and the rest of the newly found admin funds,
that is what I would like to do. Based on what I would like to accomplish in
this division, and what I know of the complexities of these programs, I will
have no difficulty finding work for HPAs.

CArcher_Email3016077

I will assemble this information, double-check the accuracy of a couple of
pieces of information, and then contact Supv. Mayo with an amendment request
(assuming the Exec's OK with this).

Bob Dennik just forward me this communication from HUD. Not only does it
contradict the concerns expressed at Committee and in the newspaper that these
funds will disappear if we do not use them in 2007, but it also sets the record
straight on how and why we got them in the first place. Unbelievable.
Perhaps the best piece of news in this communication is that our admin payment
has increased $7,800 per month starting this past June. Bob says this is the
first he heard of this. While I don't know how we budgeted, this would appear
to indicate that we might be able to plug another $94,000 of revenue in the
Housing Division's budget in 2008 and restore the filled position that was
abolished and at least part of a Housing Program Assistant. Also, these extra
dollars that are retroactive to June could justify filling one of the vacant
HPA positions now. Chad and Dan, could you please do some immediate analysis
on this and determine whether in fact this is additional revenue we can plug
into the budget? Also, Jim, I think you should make the call as to what
positions to restore with this revenue if it is real, and I would suggest that
you be the one to approach Mayo about doing a budget amendment once we figure
out what we want to do here.
Ed, I'm assuming that the Exec would be OK with using these extra dollars to
provide more support to the Housing Division in light of yesterday's negative
press? While we could technically use this money (if it is real) to back out
levy, I think we would be hard-pressed to argue that it shouldn't stay in
Housing given the issues we are experiencing there.

Hi Bob,
Just so you’re aware as to the specifics of the additional HCV funds you

sure to contact me with any questions you might have.

Subject: RE: $700,000 for low-income homes unspent
Here’s the reality check on the article. The funds noted in the article are
not a bonus or any type of special award. HUD recalculated the Housing Choice
Voucher funding for PHAs three times in 2007, based on Congressional actions,
as noted below:
January 19, 2007 letter from David Vargas
No Appropriations Bill as of yet
Funded January HCV programs at 1/12th of the 2006 levels
March 26, 2007 letter from Miguel Fontanez
Revised Continuing Appropriations Resolution
Enacted on February 12th
Changed renewal funding baseline, benchmarked to a 12 month period, from
January 2006 to December 2006. (Previously based on a 3 month period of May,
June and July 2006).
PIH Notice 2007-14: Published June 18, 2007
Implemented Revised Continuing Appropriations Resolution and U.S. Troop
Readiness, Veterans Care, Katrina Recovery and Iraq Accountability
Appropriations Act.
Funded HAP monies at 105.017% and Admin Fees at 101.528%, which typically meant
an increase for PHAs.
The $700,000+ funding provided for Milwaukee County was a result of the June
18, 2007 action, and was simply an adjustment of additional dollars based on
what Congress mandated with the new Act. And at this point there are no
provisions in that Act to recapture funds not utilized in 2007. It would only
happen if Congress decided to make a change to either the benchmarking process
or other funding provisions.
Specifically, when Congress changed the way that they benchmarked the program
(using prior utilization data to fund for the upcoming year), Milwaukee County
was rewarded for increasing their utilization in 2006. It is also important to
note that their Administrative Fee was increased $7,800 per month as a result
of the June 18, 2007 action, contrary to what the article stated.
Give me a call when you’re ready to discuss…

Rob, et al:
I had received the e-mail shortly before you sent yours and was poring over its
contents. It would appear that this is indeed good news. I certainly think it
prudent to take the steps that Rob has recommended. My concern here, at least
in the early going with this new division, is ensuring some measure of
continuity in operations; if that can be accomplished using these admin dollars
to restore this position, then I think that's what we ought to do.
Also, I have contacted Patty Yunk regarding making Danel Crawford's position
available. Patty is drawing up a MOU that lays out what the contract
provides. This can be done; it's a matter of who might be available and
qualified asap to fill the position, and whether that individual will be
willing to take the position on an emergency or temp appointment, understanding
that it is possible they could be bumped from it. If we can fill another HPA
with a small investment of levy and the rest of the newly found admin funds,
that is what I would like to do. Based on what I would like to accomplish in
this division, and what I know of the complexities of these programs, I will
have no difficulty finding work for HPAs.
I will assemble this information, double-check the accuracy of a couple of
pieces of information, and then contact Supv. Mayo with an amendment request
(assuming the Exec's OK with this).

Bob Dennik just forward me this communication from HUD. Not only does it
contradict the concerns expressed at Committee and in the newspaper that these
funds will disappear if we do not use them in 2007, but it also sets the record
straight on how and why we got them in the first place. Unbelievable.
Perhaps the best piece of news in this communication is that our admin payment
has increased $7,800 per month starting this past June. Bob says this is the
first he heard of this. While I don't know how we budgeted, this would appear
to indicate that we might be able to plug another $94,000 of revenue in the
Housing Division's budget in 2008 and restore the filled position that was
abolished and at least part of a Housing Program Assistant. Also, these extra
dollars that are retroactive to June could justify filling one of the vacant
HPA positions now. Chad and Dan, could you please do some immediate analysis
on this and determine whether in fact this is additional revenue we can plug
into the budget? Also, Jim, I think you should make the call as to what
positions to restore with this revenue if it is real, and I would suggest that
you be the one to approach Mayo about doing a budget amendment once we figure
out what we want to do here.
Ed, I'm assuming that the Exec would be OK with using these extra dollars to
provide more support to the Housing Division in light of yesterday's negative
press? While we could technically use this money (if it is real) to back out
levy, I think we would be hard-pressed to argue that it shouldn't stay in
Housing given the issues we are experiencing there.

Hi Bob,
Just so you’re aware as to the specifics of the additional HCV funds you
received back in July, here’s the background that I provided to Del. Please be
sure to contact me with any questions you might have.

Subject: RE: $700,000 for low-income homes unspent
Here’s the reality check on the article. The funds noted in the article are
not a bonus or any type of special award. HUD recalculated the Housing Choice
Voucher funding for PHAs three times in 2007, based on Congressional actions,
as noted below:
January 19, 2007 letter from David Vargas
No Appropriations Bill as of yet
Funded January HCV programs at 1/12th of the 2006 levels
March 26, 2007 letter from Miguel Fontanez
Revised Continuing Appropriations Resolution
Enacted on February 12th
Changed renewal funding baseline, benchmarked to a 12 month period, from
January 2006 to December 2006. (Previously based on a 3 month period of May,
June and July 2006).
PIH Notice 2007-14: Published June 18, 2007
Implemented Revised Continuing Appropriations Resolution and U.S. Troop
Readiness, Veterans Care, Katrina Recovery and Iraq Accountability
Appropriations Act.
Funded HAP monies at 105.017% and Admin Fees at 101.528%, which typically meant
an increase for PHAs.
The $700,000+ funding provided for Milwaukee County was a result of the June
18, 2007 action, and was simply an adjustment of additional dollars based on
what Congress mandated with the new Act. And at this point there are no
provisions in that Act to recapture funds not utilized in 2007. It would only
happen if Congress decided to make a change to either the benchmarking process
or other funding provisions.
Specifically, when Congress changed the way that they benchmarked the program
(using prior utilization data to fund for the upcoming year), Milwaukee County
was rewarded for increasing their utilization in 2006. It is also important to
note that their Administrative Fee was increased $7,800 per month as a result
of the June 18, 2007 action, contrary to what the article stated.
Give me a call when you’re ready to discuss…

Matter of utmost importance

I am in need of a recommendation for a local vet. Penny needs to have her

want to take her back to the emergency clinic for this. Can either or both of

Last night I was provided a draft of POB legislation that is being considered
by Rep. Stone. It appears to have some key differences to the draft by Sen.
Coggs, that I believe the POB Work Group supports. Obviously, having differing
versions isn't going to expedite the legislative approval process.

Fw: Option To Purchase Real Estate
Thursday, October 18, 2007 10:43:48 AM

See below. Again, Keegan indicated if this were to proceed they would
negotiate with Lutheran College to remain in the old greenhouse until the new
one is built. Keegan feels we could negotiate the sale for 2008, receive the
money in 2008 and effectively be a tenant until we move into the new
greenhouse. This would all be negotiated and Keggen feels Wi Lutheran College
would be fine with it.
As a side note, even if the new greenhouse was finished in 2008, Parks could
not disrupt the growing season and move until spring of 2009. Just FYI.

              Option To Purchase Real Estate

CArcher_Email3016111

Dear Ms Black,
Per your request I have reviewed the above referenced option, the Purchase and
Sale Agreement and the County Board Resolution approving the sale and option
agreements. The following is a brief summary of the main items in the option
agreement executed by college and County officials on Feb, 27, 2004.
Option Term: 10 years starting February 27, 2004 and terminating on Feb. 27,
2014 at 11:59 PM
Option Consideration: $10.00
Effective: Option shall not become effective unless and until the County ceases
to operate the Greenhouse on the Option Area.
Purchase Price: $100,000 per acre for the first five years, ending Feb. 27,
2009. Thereafter the purchase price would be based on a market value appraisal,
which the County would have to pay for. This requirement runs until the option
expires.
County (Seller) obligations. County to pay for demolition building and
environment clean up of the site. Seller to be obligated to pay up to 50% of
the total purchase price (8.156 acres x $100,000 = $815,600. A clean up
estimate as of April 2006 was $469,779.
Terms of the Sales Agreement
College has an access easement from Watertown Plank Road to the property.
College also has two controlled site access points off Underwood Parkway.
Item 29. Purchase Option: Right of First Refusal: Should the County not cease
Greenhouse operations during the ten year option period the College has a Right
of First Refusal on any and all offers received by the County after Feb. 27,
2014 for the property for what appears to be forever.
Item 30. Notice of Sale Clause. Should the County sell any adjacent or
contiguous land to the College's current property the County agreed to give the
College written notice prior to any sale of said land.
I believe this summarizes the main points of the current option. You may wish
to contact legal counsel for interpretation.
Any questions, please contact me at 414.349.1977 or at my email address.

        GTA Revenue for 2008





Fyi - I spoke with the representative at the State of Wisconsin concerning the
3% increase in GTA revenue, as currently included in the state budget
compromise. Based on that conversation, the original GTA estimate provided to
us on October 1st still stands at $4,546,373. This is based on a preliminary
re-estimate by the state which incorporates an assumed 3% increase for the
state's overall GTA allocation. The County is likely to receive no increase
from the previous estimate because of a relatively low level of County costs,
as calculated in the state's six year rolling average.
The bottom line is that the $115,313 that Rob Henken identified as available
GTA money for allocation in 2008 still appears to be a good number, but it has
not increased with recent budget events at the state.

Kat, could you please locate the veto documents submitted to the Board related
to the 2005 and 2006 budgets. What you gave me was only for 2006 and it was
not the official signed submission. I am after the signed veto messages and
the official strikes (normally, the strikes are inititialed by the CEX). You
should be able to find these in the Board material on the internet related to
the Board veto meetings for each of these budgets.

Once you locate, please make me a copy and Rob a copy and leave mine on my
desk. I might come in over the weekend to pick it up, but in any event I will
need it first thing Monday AM.

I am not coming in today, but plan on being at the apartment until about
10:00. If you have questions about what I am after, give me a call before
10:00. Thanks.

MEMO

From:

October 30, 2007
Richard Nyklewicz, Jr. Finance Chairman
Cynthia Archer, Budget Director
Lisa Marks, Director Child Support

On October 9, 2007, the Finance and Audit Committee passed amendment 1A013 to the
Child Support Budget to reflect the unanticipated State/County contract addendum that
allowed the Department to draw down additional Federal revenue and restore 18
positions. Specifically, the amendment passed by the Finance and Audit Committee was
based on preliminary communications from the State indicating that the Milwaukee
County Department of Child Enforcement would be able to gain early access to $640,000
of Milwaukee County’s 2008 incentive revenue allocation for use in 2007. Today we
were notified by the State that the initial estimate of $640,000 has now been reduced to
$217,882.
We are requesting that the original amendment be replaced by a substitute amendment
reflecting the new estimates from the State. The attached indicates the modifications
required to amendment 1A013.

2007 Revised Municipal and County Levy Limit Worksheets

ATTENTION : Municipal and County Clerks and Treasurers
The Division of State and Local Finance is revising its Municipal and County
Levy Limit Worksheets for the 2007 local property tax levy in accordance with
new guidelines created last week by the passage of the 2007-2009 State Budget,
and subsequent amendatory veto by Governor Doyle. The up to date Levy Limits
Worksheets will be mailed to each local government no later than November 5 and
should be available for budgeting purposes no later than November 8. Copies may
also be obtained from your state association as well after November 6.
Please do not call our division directly for the revised figures as each local
government's final percentages are affected by up to 16 different factors. In
general, the Governor's amendatory veto increased the minimum percentage the
local property tax limit may exceed the 2006 actual imposed levy (not the
limits) without going to a taxpayer referendum by 3.86 percent, or by the 2007
percentage growth caused by net new construction (including that within tax
incremental finance districts) over 2006 total equalized value; whichever is
greater. Net New Construction figures are listed by first County, and then
Municipality on our web site at http://www.revenue.wi.gov/equ/nnc.pdf .

Supervisor Richard D. Nyklewicz, Jr., Chairman
From the Committee on Finance and Audit

File No. 07-379

AMENDMENT NO. 1
WHEREAS, the County Executive’s 2008 Budget, submitted to the County Board of Supervisors on September 27, 2007, has been reviewed by the
Committee on Finance and Audit in a series of meetings to, and including, October 31, 2007, now therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED, that the County Executive’s 2008 Budget be amended as follows:

COUNTY BOARD

$86,809

1000

$0

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 1000 – County Board, by increasing expenditures $86,809 to restore gross
wages funded to 100% from 97%, and modifying the budget narrative as
follows:
•

Personal services expenditures without fringe benefits increase $110,719
$23,910, from $2,967,249 to $3,077,968 $2,991,159.

This amendment removes a 3% vacancy and turnover salary deduction to
County Board personal service expenditures, and essentially establishes the
County Board tax levy budget at the same level as the 2007 Adopted Budget.
This amendment would increase tax levy by $86,809. (1A035) (Vote 7-0)
2.

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 1000 – County Board, by placing the expenditure of $42,716 for
membership in the Wisconsin Counties Association into an allocated
contingency account and adding the following bullet point to the budget
narrative:
The $42,716 expenditure for membership in the Wisconsin Counties
Association (WCA) is placed in an allocated contingency account pending
receipt of a report from WCA on its specific efforts, and the results of those
efforts, to support the fiscal and programmatic interests of urban counties in
general, and Milwaukee County specifically. This report should include WCA
efforts made on behalf of Milwaukee County, either separately or working in
conjunction with Milwaukee County representatives, with regard to the 2007-09
State Budget, including courts, juvenile justice and shared revenue, as well as
other legislation of particular interest or concern to Milwaukee County and

Expenditures

Revenue
or Bonds*

Tax Levy

other urban counties. It also should include pro-active steps that have been
made to assure that employees within the top ranks of WCA reflect the diverse
demographics of the changing population of Wisconsin and its counties. Upon
receipt of said report, and analysis of that report by County Board staff, a fund
transfer may be prepared to remove the expenditure form the allocated
contingency account for possible payment of 2008 WCA membership dues.
This amendment would have a tax levy impact of $0. (1A036) (Vote 7-0)
3.

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 1000 –County Board, by increasing personal service expenditures
$29,851, reducing services expenditures $29,851 (including a reduction in
Supervisors’ individual office accounts due to a projected reduction in districtrelated activity during the first four months of 2008, and in other accounts), and
modifying the budget narrative as follows:
•

Expenditures of $29,851 are included for an increase in Milwaukee
County Supervisors’ salaries. Salaries for positions of County Supervisor
and County Board Chairman will increase four percent (4%) effective April
21, 2008, the commencement of the new Supervisory term, and remain at
that level for the duration of the 2008-2012 term. This adjustment reflects
the fact that the positions of County Supervisor and County Board
Chairman have not received a salary increase since 2000. Absent this
salary adjustment, Supervisor and County Board Chairman positions
would receive no increase for at least twelve (12) years. A March 14,
2007, survey of legislative and executive salaries by the Milwaukee
County Department of Audit supported a conclusion that Milwaukee
County Supervisor salaries are significantly lower than those in
comparable jurisdictions surveyed. This salary adjustment reflects an
effort to begin to address these survey findings.

•

Services are reduced $48,525 $18,674, from $347,064 to $298,539
$328,390, including a reduction in outside printing and stationery of
$6,000, to reflect increased use of the House of Correction printing
service, and reductions in other service accounts.

financing a 46-unit addition of affordable housing to their facility on 1032 E.
Knapp Street. St. Catherine’s Residence, Inc. had applied for Wisconsin
Housing and Economic Development Authority grant funding and the
County Board’s action improved the possibility of receiving WHEDA
funding. This project was subsequently approved by WHEDA. The
resolution allocated the $100,000 from the 2006 appropriation in WO043 –
Milwaukee County Inclusive Housing Fund, which was to receive this
revenue from the sale of Park East land. No revenue was received in 2006
from the Park East land. This project will begin construction in 2008 and
this amendment will provide the funds needed to carry out the adopted
resolution in 2008.
This fund will be used to execute the housing provisions of the Park East
Redevelopment Compact (PERC). Milwaukee County has committed to
sponsor construction of new affordable housing of not less than 20 percent
of the total housing units built on the County’s Park East lands. The
County, in each request for proposal for any given parcel, may require a
different percentage of affordable housing or have no requirement at all.
The County may use funds from this account to meet the PERC guidelines.

Section:
From 2002 through 2005, health care costs rose from $81.5 million to $120.2
million, an increase of 47.5%. Two key variables put the County on a path of
continued double-digit increases. The first was failure to resolve health care
benefit issues as part of labor negotiations. The second was a decision to
move the County's employee and retiree health care program from a selfinsured model to a fully-insured model. Labor negotiation was effectively
resolved under the leadership of the Committee on Personnel with the support
of the Committee on Finance and Audit as well as the Chairman and Members
of the County Board. As a result, annual health care costs were reduced by
about $12.5 million (assuming a maximum allowable increase of approximately
15.8% under the former fully-insured administrative contract). The second
major step in containing health care costs was the action of the Committee on
Finance and Audit to create the Health Care Workgroup. The Workgroup was
successful in negotiating a return to a self-insured program resulting in
approximately $10.5 million in savings to be realized in 2007 (again, compared
to increases of 15.8% under the former contract). Combined, these two
initiatives put the County in a position to achieve savings of approximately
$25.8 million for 2008 when compared to what costs could have been without
benefit design changes and without a return to a self-insured program.

For 2008, the Recommended Budget anticipates approximately $10.5 million
in expected savings from the issuance of $267 million in pension obligation
bonds, an increase of $4.25 million from the 2007 amount. Again, State
legislative approval is still necessary in order to issue and potentially realize
these budgeted savings. The County Executive first proposed pension
obligation bond financing as a means to achieve budgetary savings in the fall
of 2004. A Spring 2005 advisory public referendum on whether the County
should issue $261 million in pension obligation bonds was defeated by a vote
of 57% to 43%. Despite efforts by key County officials and staff, the
Legislature has thus far failed to provide the County with the authority to issue
pension obligation bonds to enable the County to achieve the anticipated
pension contribution savings.
As a safeguard against continued failure to achieve the necessary legislation,
the POB Work Group is encouraged to review additional modifications in
pension funding that could alleviate potential under funding of the pension
contribution if pension obligation bonds are not issued.
For background, the 2007 Recommended Budget assumed a budgetary
savings of $6.25 million each year based on the issuance of $455 million in
pension obligation bonds. The County Board assumed an additional pension
contribution savings of $3.5 million in 2007 based on an expected review and
change in current assumptions by the actuaries that impact funding
requirements.
In 2007, the County was notified that due to changes
recommended by the actuaries, the required pension contribution was lowered
by $6.6 million. The savings associated with a pension obligation bond
financing, however, have not been realized because the State has not
provided the County with the authority needed to issue pension obligation
bonds for the proposed timeframe.

Sales and Use Tax Ordinance
Section 22.04, Milwaukee County Ordinances, originally required sales tax
revenue be used to pay tax-supported debt service costs. Surplus revenues
not needed for debt service payments were required to be used to directly
finance capital improvements.
On June 18, 2003, the County Board of Supervisors approved Resolution File
No. 03-263(a)(a), which modified Section 22.04 of the General Ordinances so
that surplus sales and use tax revenues could be used to also pre-fund
employee benefit costs or fund anticipated or extraordinary annual increases in
such costs or supplement the Appropriation for Contingencies. The 2003
resolution permitted excess sales tax revenues to be used for the above
general fund purposes through calendar year 2007.

improvements in 2008 are estimated at $417,000, and debt service costs for
2008 are estimated at $53,431,913, resulting in excess sales and use tax
revenues for 2008 of $11,777,036. Under the current Milwaukee County Sales
Tax Ordinance, the excess could only be used to cash finance 2008 capital
improvements.
A revised Ordinance will be submitted with the 2008
Recommended Budget to permanently codify the 2003 provisions scheduled to
sunset in 2007. This allows all or a portion of the excess to be applied toward
the County’s Pension Fund Contribution, Employee/Retiree Health Care costs,
or the Appropriation for Contingencies. The Committee on Finance and Audit
during its 2008 budget deliberations deferred the matter to its December 2007

No. 6300 – Department of Health and Human Services-Behavioral Health
Division, by amending the narrative on page 6300-6 as follows:
•

AODA prevention and intervention contracts are reduced $2,610,087, due
primarily to the anticipated decrease in Federal grant revenue for the
Access to Recovery (ATR) program. BHD, via the State of Wisconsin,
successfully applied for and received a three-year Access to Recovery
grant totaling approximately $22 million in late 2004, which has provided
approximately $7 million in grant revenue during each of the past three
years. Nationwide funding for ATR recently has diminished, and BHD’s
ATR grant is expected to be reduced to approximately $4.8 million for
2008. This significant grant still provides the Division with considerably
more funding for AODA services than it possessed four years ago.

•

Due to this significant reduction in Access to Recovery funding, an
additional $600,000 in tax levy funding is allocated for maintenance of
effort for AODA prevention and intervention services in 2008.

This amendment would increase tax levy by $600,000. (1A074) (Vote 6-1) (No:

A $150,000 appropriation is included to continue funding of the Safe
Alternatives for Youth (SAY) program in 2008. This program was initially
established with a $150,000 appropriation in the 2003 County Budget to
provide community-based services to young people living in low-income
areas of Milwaukee County who were exposed to barriers that placed
them at risk in their community. Since 2003, under the direction of the
SAY Oversight Committee and the administration of the Milwaukee Urban
League as fiscal agent, SAY has distributed more than 80 small grants for
one-time educational, cultural, recreational and other activities, which
have enhanced life experiences of disadvantaged youth and have
positively impacted 3,000 youth.
In 2008, the SAY program will continue to operate under the provisions of
Adopted County Board Resolution File No. 03-247, which established the
Safe Homes (subsequently re-named Safe Alternatives for Youth)
Oversight Committee.
Consistent with the terms of the Adopted
Resolution, the SAY Oversight Committee, appointed by the County Board
Chairman, will continue to oversee the program and direct the distribution
of small SAY grants, and the Milwaukee Urban League will continue to
serve as SAY fiscal agent. The Director of the Department of Health and
Human Services shall execute a contract in the amount of $12,000 with
the Milwaukee Urban League for fiscal agent services, including serving as
depository for the funds to be allocated, distributing the funds as directed
by the SAY Oversight Committee, preparing and distributing tax forms for
grantees, and providing quarterly reports on the distribution of funds and
remaining balances to the SAY Oversight Committee. In addition, the
Director of the Department of Health and Human Services is authorized to
deposit $138,000 in SAY appropriations with the Milwaukee Urban League
as fiscal agent, from which identified activities under the program will be
funded.

novelties and souvenirs in October of 2007 and October of 2008,
respectively. This amount is approximately 57% of the total requested
appropriation for resale novelties and souvenirs. A substantial portion of
resale merchandise sold at the Milwaukee County Zoo is purchased from
import vendors to provide the quantity and variety of items desired by the
general public visiting the Zoo. Due to the distance and travel time
required for overseas shipments, the Zoo must order resale merchandise
in the fall for spring delivery. Precedent exists in past County Board
authorization for the Zoo to purchase resale items for the upcoming year.
Budget authority is included in the 2008 Zoo budget in lieu of separate
review and approval during the budget year. The County Board of
Supervisors may revoke this authority if 2009 funds are not appropriated
for Zoo novelties and souvenirs during the 2009 budget deliberations in
October 2008.

1. Denying the termination of Milwaukee County’s contract with the Board of
Regents of the University of Wisconsin System effective 2008 as follows:
• In order to redirect property tax levy funds to higher priority core
County functions, the 2008 budget terminates the contract with the
Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin system effective
for 2008. According to language in the UW Extension sub-lease of
the Roosevelt School, $37,500 is budgeted for rent and related
lease expenses for the first four months of 2008.
2. Denying the abolishment of a Clerical Assistant 2 (NR) position by
increasing expenditures for salary, social security and active fringe
costs of $43,619, increasing expenditures for Services from $37,507 to
$274,695 and increasing expenditures for County Service Charges
from $0 to $12,806, for a total expenditure increase of $293,613 and

Due to the termination of the contract with the Board of Regents of

following savings will be realized:
o Clerical Assistant 2 (NR) position abolished for salary, social
security, and active fringe cost savings of $43,621.
o Services eliminated for a cost savings of $239,811.
o County Service Charges eliminated for a cost savings of
$12,806.
Due to the termination of the contract with the Board of Regents of
the University of Wisconsin System for UW Extension, $120,785 of
revenue is eliminated.

3. The abatement of countywide crosscharges is discontinued in 2008.
The tax levy previously in the servicing department is redistributed to
the recipient departments in an amount corresponding to the
crosscharges. This results in a tax levy redistribution equal to the
change in abatements. Due primarily to this change in methodology,
there is no increase or decrease in direct tax levy for this department
decreased $172,533.
The actual change in tax levy for this
department from 2007 is a decrease of $184,480 $11,947.

Improvements, by increasing general obligation bonding by $57,000.
The Mary Ryan Boys and Girls Club of Greater Milwaukee has embarked on
their Decade of Hope initiative, a promise to increase the number of children
involved in youth development programming, especially for teens. This
initiative requires the remodeling of the Mary Ryan Boys and Girls Club
building, which is located in Sherman Park and owned by Milwaukee County.
The Mary Ryan Club secured $40,000 in 2008 Community Development Block
Grant funds but needed repairs to the building total $97,000. Therefore, this
appropriation will be used to fund the remainder of the maintenance projects,
which include upgrading the sewer service to the building.

Johnsons Park in accordance with the Development Agreement between
Milwaukee County and Johnsons Park Development, LLC, as adopted by the
County Board in September 2007 (File No. 06-482(a)).

commitment could include funds from donations, grants or $100,000 from the
City of Milwaukee’s tax incremental finance district that includes Johnsons
Park.
The Parks Department, in consultation with the Department of Administrative
Services, will work with Johnsons Park LLC to determine the best use of the

If we are serious about highlighting the revenue shortfall in the Courts, why
don't we veto their revenue down by $2.0 million, reduce their expenditures by
$2.0 million and then reduce the contingency fund by $2.0 million? This makes
more sense than leaving faulty revenue, reducing levy (which makes their hole
bigger) and leaving contingency fund $.

If we veto the Board raises, I think we should veto the amendment in its
entirety and not try to capture the $29,851 in internal savings they identified
to offset the raises. It will just tick them off and may hurt chances of
sustaning a veto. Agree?

AMENDMENT NO. 1
WHEREAS, the County Executive’s 2008 Budget, submitted to the County Board of Supervisors on September 27, 2007, has been reviewed by the
Committee on Finance and Audit in a series of meetings to, and including, October 31, 2007, now therefore,

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 1000 – County Board, by increasing expenditures $86,809 to restore gross
wages funded to 100% from 97%, and modifying the budget narrative as
follows:
•

Personal services expenditures without fringe benefits increase $110,719
$23,910, from $2,967,249 to $3,077,968 $2,991,159.

This amendment removes a 3% vacancy and turnover salary deduction to
County Board personal service expenditures, and essentially establishes the
County Board tax levy budget at the same level as the 2007 Adopted Budget.
This amendment would increase tax levy by $86,809. (1A035) (Vote 7-0)

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 1000 – County Board, by placing the expenditure of $42,716 for
membership in the Wisconsin Counties Association into an allocated
contingency account and adding the following bullet point to the budget
narrative:
The $42,716 expenditure for membership in the Wisconsin Counties
Association (WCA) is placed in an allocated contingency account pending
receipt of a report from WCA on its specific efforts, and the results of those
efforts, to support the fiscal and programmatic interests of urban counties in
general, and Milwaukee County specifically. This report should include WCA
efforts made on behalf of Milwaukee County, either separately or working in
conjunction with Milwaukee County representatives, with regard to the 2007-09
State Budget, including courts, juvenile justice and shared revenue, as well as
other legislation of particular interest or concern to Milwaukee County and

other urban counties. It also should include pro-active steps that have been
made to assure that employees within the top ranks of WCA reflect the diverse
demographics of the changing population of Wisconsin and its counties. Upon
receipt of said report, and analysis of that report by County Board staff, a fund
transfer may be prepared to remove the expenditure form the allocated
contingency account for possible payment of 2008 WCA membership dues.
This amendment would have a tax levy impact of $0. (1A036) (Vote 7-0)

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 1000 –County Board, by increasing personal service expenditures
$29,851, reducing services expenditures $29,851 (including a reduction in
Supervisors’ individual office accounts due to a projected reduction in districtrelated activity during the first four months of 2008, and in other accounts), and
modifying the budget narrative as follows:
•

Expenditures of $29,851 are included for an increase in Milwaukee
County Supervisors’ salaries. Salaries for positions of County Supervisor
and County Board Chairman will increase four percent (4%) effective April
21, 2008, the commencement of the new Supervisory term, and remain at
that level for the duration of the 2008-2012 term. This adjustment reflects
the fact that the positions of County Supervisor and County Board
Chairman have not received a salary increase since 2000. Absent this
salary adjustment, Supervisor and County Board Chairman positions

financing a 46-unit addition of affordable housing to their facility on 1032 E.
Knapp Street. St. Catherine’s Residence, Inc. had applied for Wisconsin
Housing and Economic Development Authority grant funding and the
County Board’s action improved the possibility of receiving WHEDA
funding. This project was subsequently approved by WHEDA. The
resolution allocated the $100,000 from the 2006 appropriation in WO043 –

revenue from the sale of Park East land. No revenue was received in 2006
from the Park East land. This project will begin construction in 2008 and

Redevelopment Compact (PERC). Milwaukee County has committed to
sponsor construction of new affordable housing of not less than 20 percent
of the total housing units built on the County’s Park East lands. The
County, in each request for proposal for any given parcel, may require a
different percentage of affordable housing or have no requirement at all.
The County may use funds from this account to meet the PERC guidelines.

Section:
From 2002 through 2005, health care costs rose from $81.5 million to $120.2
million, an increase of 47.5%. Two key variables put the County on a path of
continued double-digit increases. The first was failure to resolve health care
benefit issues as part of labor negotiations. The second was a decision to
move the County's employee and retiree health care program from a selfinsured model to a fully-insured model. Labor negotiation was effectively
resolved under the leadership of the Committee on Personnel with the support
of the Committee on Finance and Audit as well as the Chairman and Members
of the County Board. As a result, annual health care costs were reduced by
about $12.5 million (assuming a maximum allowable increase of approximately
15.8% under the former fully-insured administrative contract). The second
major step in containing health care costs was the action of the Committee on
Finance and Audit to create the Health Care Workgroup. The Workgroup was
successful in negotiating a return to a self-insured program resulting in
approximately $10.5 million in savings to be realized in 2007 (again, compared
to increases of 15.8% under the former contract). Combined, these two
initiatives put the County in a position to achieve savings of approximately
$25.8 million for 2008 when compared to what costs could have been without
benefit design changes and without a return to a self-insured program.

($89,286)

For 2008, the Recommended Budget anticipates approximately $10.5 million
in expected savings from the issuance of $267 million in pension obligation
bonds, an increase of $4.25 million from the 2007 amount. Again, State
legislative approval is still necessary in order to issue and potentially realize
these budgeted savings. The County Executive first proposed pension
obligation bond financing as a means to achieve budgetary savings in the fall
of 2004. A Spring 2005 advisory public referendum on whether the County
should issue $261 million in pension obligation bonds was defeated by a vote
of 57% to 43%. Despite efforts by key County officials and staff, the
Legislature has thus far failed to provide the County with the authority to issue
pension obligation bonds to enable the County to achieve the anticipated
pension contribution savings.
As a safeguard against continued failure to achieve the necessary legislation,
the POB Work Group is encouraged to review additional modifications in
pension funding that could alleviate potential under funding of the pension
contribution if pension obligation bonds are not issued.
For background, the 2007 Recommended Budget assumed a budgetary
savings of $6.25 million each year based on the issuance of $455 million in
pension obligation bonds. The County Board assumed an additional pension
contribution savings of $3.5 million in 2007 based on an expected review and
change in current assumptions by the actuaries that impact funding
requirements.
In 2007, the County was notified that due to changes
recommended by the actuaries, the required pension contribution was lowered
by $6.6 million. The savings associated with a pension obligation bond
financing, however, have not been realized because the State has not
provided the County with the authority needed to issue pension obligation
bonds for the proposed timeframe.

November 5 causes that tax levy amount to change, then the computer tax
exemption revenue total will be recalculated by the Department of

Sales and Use Tax Ordinance
Section 22.04, Milwaukee County Ordinances, originally required sales tax
revenue be used to pay tax-supported debt service costs. Surplus revenues
not needed for debt service payments were required to be used to directly
finance capital improvements.
On June 18, 2003, the County Board of Supervisors approved Resolution File
No. 03-263(a)(a), which modified Section 22.04 of the General Ordinances so
that surplus sales and use tax revenues could be used to also pre-fund
employee benefit costs or fund anticipated or extraordinary annual increases in
such costs or supplement the Appropriation for Contingencies. The 2003
resolution permitted excess sales tax revenues to be used for the above
general fund purposes through calendar year 2007.

improvements in 2008 are estimated at $417,000, and debt service costs for
2008 are estimated at $53,431,913, resulting in excess sales and use tax
revenues for 2008 of $11,777,036. Under the current Milwaukee County Sales
Tax Ordinance, the excess could only be used to cash finance 2008 capital
improvements.
A revised Ordinance will be submitted with the 2008
Recommended Budget to permanently codify the 2003 provisions scheduled to
sunset in 2007. This allows all or a portion of the excess to be applied toward
the County’s Pension Fund Contribution, Employee/Retiree Health Care costs,

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 2430 – Department of Child Support Enforcement, to reflect a
State/County contract addendum that allows the Department to draw down
additional Federal revenue and restore several positions; and to amend
several additional departmental budgets to reflect modifications in fringe
benefit legacy costs in light of position restorations in Org. Unit No. 2430.
These actions would be accomplished as follows:
1. A 2007 State/County Contract addendum will provide the Department of
Child Support Enforcement with early access to $217,882 of Milwaukee
County’s 2008 incentive revenue allocation. The advanced funding will
support 2007 Child Support Enforcement operations. In exchange, the
State/County contract requires the Department of Child Support
Enforcement to carry forward local property tax levy funding to 2008 in an
amount equivalent to the $217,882 in incentive revenue that was
advanced to 2007. This increase in local funds must be used to support
County Child Support operations in 2008 and can be utilized to draw
down additional Federal matching funds. The following modifications
shall be made to the 2008 Budget for Org. Unit No. 2430 to effectuate
these changes:
•
•
•
•

Decrease federal incentive revenue by $217,882, from $3,596,989 to
$3,379,107.
Increase contribution from reserves from $0 to $217,882.
Increase Federal matching fund revenue by $453,827, from
$9,761,717 to $10,215,544.
Increase expenditures for salary, social security, active and legacy
fringe costs by $877,449 to restore the following 11 positions:

Division, by amending the narrative on page 6300-6 as follows:
•

AODA prevention and intervention contracts are reduced $2,610,087, due
primarily to the anticipated decrease in Federal grant revenue for the
Access to Recovery (ATR) program. BHD, via the State of Wisconsin,
successfully applied for and received a three-year Access to Recovery
grant totaling approximately $22 million in late 2004, which has provided
approximately $7 million in grant revenue during each of the past three
years. Nationwide funding for ATR recently has diminished, and BHD’s
ATR grant is expected to be reduced to approximately $4.8 million for
2008. This significant grant still provides the Division with considerably
more funding for AODA services than it possessed four years ago.

•

Due to this significant reduction in Access to Recovery funding, an
additional $600,000 in tax levy funding is allocated for maintenance of
effort for AODA prevention and intervention services in 2008.

A $150,000 appropriation is included to continue funding of the Safe
Alternatives for Youth (SAY) program in 2008. This program was initially
established with a $150,000 appropriation in the 2003 County Budget to
provide community-based services to young people living in low-income
areas of Milwaukee County who were exposed to barriers that placed
them at risk in their community. Since 2003, under the direction of the
SAY Oversight Committee and the administration of the Milwaukee Urban
League as fiscal agent, SAY has distributed more than 80 small grants for
one-time educational, cultural, recreational and other activities, which
have enhanced life experiences of disadvantaged youth and have
positively impacted 3,000 youth.
In 2008, the SAY program will continue to operate under the provisions of
Adopted County Board Resolution File No. 03-247, which established the
Safe Homes (subsequently re-named Safe Alternatives for Youth)
Oversight Committee.
Consistent with the terms of the Adopted
Resolution, the SAY Oversight Committee, appointed by the County Board
Chairman, will continue to oversee the program and direct the distribution
of small SAY grants, and the Milwaukee Urban League will continue to
serve as SAY fiscal agent. The Director of the Department of Health and
Human Services shall execute a contract in the amount of $12,000 with
the Milwaukee Urban League for fiscal agent services, including serving as
depository for the funds to be allocated, distributing the funds as directed
by the SAY Oversight Committee, preparing and distributing tax forms for
grantees, and providing quarterly reports on the distribution of funds and
remaining balances to the SAY Oversight Committee. In addition, the
Director of the Department of Health and Human Services is authorized to
deposit $138,000 in SAY appropriations with the Milwaukee Urban League
as fiscal agent, from which identified activities under the program will be
funded.

novelties and souvenirs in October of 2007 and October of 2008,
respectively. This amount is approximately 57% of the total requested
appropriation for resale novelties and souvenirs. A substantial portion of
resale merchandise sold at the Milwaukee County Zoo is purchased from
import vendors to provide the quantity and variety of items desired by the
general public visiting the Zoo. Due to the distance and travel time
required for overseas shipments, the Zoo must order resale merchandise
in the fall for spring delivery. Precedent exists in past County Board
authorization for the Zoo to purchase resale items for the upcoming year.
Budget authority is included in the 2008 Zoo budget in lieu of separate

Supervisors may revoke this authority if 2009 funds are not appropriated

• In order to redirect property tax levy funds to higher priority core
County functions, the 2008 budget terminates the contract with the
Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin system effective
for 2008. According to language in the UW Extension sub-lease of
the Roosevelt School, $37,500 is budgeted for rent and related
lease expenses for the first four months of 2008.

o Services eliminated for a cost savings of $239,811.
o County Service Charges eliminated for a cost savings of
$12,806.
Due to the termination of the contract with the Board of Regents of
the University of Wisconsin System for UW Extension, $120,785 of
revenue is eliminated.

3. The abatement of countywide crosscharges is discontinued in 2008.
The tax levy previously in the servicing department is redistributed to
the recipient departments in an amount corresponding to the
crosscharges. This results in a tax levy redistribution equal to the
change in abatements. Due primarily to this change in methodology,
there is no increase or decrease in direct tax levy for this department
decreased $172,533.
The actual change in tax levy for this
department from 2007 is a decrease of $184,480 $11,947.

Improvements, by increasing general obligation bonding by $57,000.
The Mary Ryan Boys and Girls Club of Greater Milwaukee has embarked on
their Decade of Hope initiative, a promise to increase the number of children
involved in youth development programming, especially for teens. This
initiative requires the remodeling of the Mary Ryan Boys and Girls Club
building, which is located in Sherman Park and owned by Milwaukee County.
The Mary Ryan Club secured $40,000 in 2008 Community Development Block
Grant funds but needed repairs to the building total $97,000. Therefore, this
appropriation will be used to fund the remainder of the maintenance projects,
which include upgrading the sewer service to the building.

Johnsons Park in accordance with the Development Agreement between
Milwaukee County and Johnsons Park Development, LLC, as adopted by the
County Board in September 2007 (File No. 06-482(a)).

focus on creating a regional park for multicultural and intergenerational passive
and active recreational opportunities. The total cost of the project is estimated
at $5,137,356, which includes a County commitment of $400,000. The County
commitment could include funds from donations, grants or $100,000 from the
City of Milwaukee’s tax incremental finance district that includes Johnsons
Park.
The Parks Department, in consultation with the Department of Administrative
Services, will work with Johnsons Park LLC to determine the best use of the
$75,000, which must be for bond eligible projects, and report back to the
Committee on Parks, Energy and Environment with an update of the project,

The $42,716 expenditure for membership in the Wisconsin Counties

efforts, to support the fiscal and programmatic interests of urban counties in

conjunction with Milwaukee County representatives, with regard to the 2007-09
State Budget, including courts, juvenile justice and shared revenue, as well as
other legislation of particular interest or concern to Milwaukee County and
other urban counties. It also should include pro-active steps that have been
made to assure that employees within the top ranks of WCA reflect the diverse
demographics of the changing population of Wisconsin and its counties. Upon
receipt of said report, and analysis of that report by County Board staff, a fund
transfer may be prepared to remove the expenditure form the allocated

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 1000 –County Board, by increasing personal service expenditures
$29,851, reducing services expenditures $29,851 (including a reduction in
Supervisors’ individual office accounts due to a projected reduction in districtrelated activity during the first four months of 2008, and in other accounts), and
modifying the budget narrative as follows:
•

Expenditures of $29,851 are included for an increase in Milwaukee
County Supervisors’ salaries. Salaries for positions of County Supervisor
and County Board Chairman will increase four percent (4%) effective April
21, 2008, the commencement of the new Supervisory term, and remain at
that level for the duration of the 2008-2012 term. This adjustment reflects
the fact that the positions of County Supervisor and County Board
Chairman have not received a salary increase since 2000. Absent this
salary adjustment, Supervisor and County Board Chairman positions
would receive no increase for at least twelve (12) years. A March 14,
2007, survey of legislative and executive salaries by the Milwaukee
County Department of Audit supported a conclusion that Milwaukee
County Supervisor salaries are significantly lower than those in
comparable jurisdictions surveyed. This salary adjustment reflects an
effort to begin to address these survey findings.

•

Services are reduced $48,525 $18,674, from $347,064 to $298,539
$328,390, including a reduction in outside printing and stationery of
$6,000, to reflect increased use of the House of Correction printing
service, and reductions in other service accounts.

Milwaukee County adopted a resolution (File No. 07-77) on February 1,
2007 to allocate $100,000 to St. Catherine’s Residence, Inc. to assist in
financing a 46-unit addition of affordable housing to their facility on 1032 E.
Knapp Street. St. Catherine’s Residence, Inc. had applied for Wisconsin
Housing and Economic Development Authority grant funding and the
County Board’s action improved the possibility of receiving WHEDA
funding. This project was subsequently approved by WHEDA. The
resolution allocated the $100,000 from the 2006 appropriation in WO043 –
Milwaukee County Inclusive Housing Fund, which was to receive this
revenue from the sale of Park East land. No revenue was received in 2006
from the Park East land. This project will begin construction in 2008 and
this amendment will provide the funds needed to carry out the adopted
resolution in 2008.
This fund will be used to execute the housing provisions of the Park East
Redevelopment Compact (PERC). Milwaukee County has committed to
sponsor construction of new affordable housing of not less than 20 percent
of the total housing units built on the County’s Park East lands. The
County, in each request for proposal for any given parcel, may require a
different percentage of affordable housing or have no requirement at all.

Additional funding is included in the 2008 Appropriation for Contingencies

passage of the 2007-09 State Budget in late October 2007. The County
Executive Recommended Budget anticipated $4,157,246 in additional
State aid that was not realized in the approved State Budget. This
included $2,099,771 in circuit court support grants, $980,000 in shared
revenue and $1,077,475 in youth aids.
In addition, the County Executive’s proposal to close the Community
Correctional Facility (CCC) and release all of the inmates using global
positioning system (GPS) monitoring currently lacks a formal plan or bids

Section:
From 2002 through 2005, health care costs rose from $81.5 million to $120.2
million, an increase of 47.5%. Two key variables put the County on a path of
continued double-digit increases. The first was failure to resolve health care
benefit issues as part of labor negotiations. The second was a decision to
move the County's employee and retiree health care program from a selfinsured model to a fully-insured model. Labor negotiation was effectively
resolved under the leadership of the Committee on Personnel with the support
of the Committee on Finance and Audit as well as the Chairman and Members
of the County Board. As a result, annual health care costs were reduced by
about $12.5 million (assuming a maximum allowable increase of approximately
15.8% under the former fully-insured administrative contract). The second
major step in containing health care costs was the action of the Committee on
Finance and Audit to create the Health Care Workgroup. The Workgroup was
successful in negotiating a return to a self-insured program resulting in
approximately $10.5 million in savings to be realized in 2007 (again, compared
to increases of 15.8% under the former contract). Combined, these two
initiatives put the County in a position to achieve savings of approximately
$25.8 million for 2008 when compared to what costs could have been without
benefit design changes and without a return to a self-insured program.

For 2008, the Recommended Budget anticipates approximately $10.5 million
in expected savings from the issuance of $267 million in pension obligation
bonds, an increase of $4.25 million from the 2007 amount. Again, State
legislative approval is still necessary in order to issue and potentially realize
these budgeted savings. The County Executive first proposed pension
obligation bond financing as a means to achieve budgetary savings in the fall
of 2004. A Spring 2005 advisory public referendum on whether the County
should issue $261 million in pension obligation bonds was defeated by a vote
of 57% to 43%. Despite efforts by key County officials and staff, the
Legislature has thus far failed to provide the County with the authority to issue
pension obligation bonds to enable the County to achieve the anticipated
pension contribution savings.
As a safeguard against continued failure to achieve the necessary legislation,
the POB Work Group is encouraged to review additional modifications in
pension funding that could alleviate potential under funding of the pension
contribution if pension obligation bonds are not issued.
For background, the 2007 Recommended Budget assumed a budgetary
savings of $6.25 million each year based on the issuance of $455 million in
pension obligation bonds. The County Board assumed an additional pension
contribution savings of $3.5 million in 2007 based on an expected review and
change in current assumptions by the actuaries that impact funding
requirements.
In 2007, the County was notified that due to changes
recommended by the actuaries, the required pension contribution was lowered
by $6.6 million. The savings associated with a pension obligation bond
financing, however, have not been realized because the State has not
provided the County with the authority needed to issue pension obligation
bonds for the proposed timeframe.

No. 1996 – County Sales Tax Revenue, by modifying the narrative language

Sales and Use Tax Ordinance
Section 22.04, Milwaukee County Ordinances, originally required sales tax
revenue be used to pay tax-supported debt service costs. Surplus revenues
not needed for debt service payments were required to be used to directly
finance capital improvements.
On June 18, 2003, the County Board of Supervisors approved Resolution File
No. 03-263(a)(a), which modified Section 22.04 of the General Ordinances so
that surplus sales and use tax revenues could be used to also pre-fund
employee benefit costs or fund anticipated or extraordinary annual increases in
such costs or supplement the Appropriation for Contingencies. The 2003
resolution permitted excess sales tax revenues to be used for the above
general fund purposes through calendar year 2007.
As noted above, 2008 sales tax collections are projected at $66,225,949. The

State repayment amount is $600,000, amounts committed to capital
improvements in 2008 are estimated at $417,000, and debt service costs for
2008 are estimated at $53,431,913, resulting in excess sales and use tax
revenues for 2008 of $11,777,036. Under the current Milwaukee County Sales
Tax Ordinance, the excess could only be used to cash finance 2008 capital
improvements.
A revised Ordinance will be submitted with the 2008
Recommended Budget to permanently codify the 2003 provisions scheduled to
sunset in 2007. This allows all or a portion of the excess to be applied toward
the County’s Pension Fund Contribution, Employee/Retiree Health Care costs,
or the Appropriation for Contingencies. The Committee on Finance and Audit
during its 2008 budget deliberations deferred the matter to its December 2007

State/County contract addendum that allows the Department to draw down
additional Federal revenue and restore several positions; and to amend
several additional departmental budgets to reflect modifications in fringe
benefit legacy costs in light of position restorations in Org. Unit No. 2430.
These actions would be accomplished as follows:
1. A 2007 State/County Contract addendum will provide the Department of
Child Support Enforcement with early access to $217,882 of Milwaukee
County’s 2008 incentive revenue allocation. The advanced funding will
support 2007 Child Support Enforcement operations. In exchange, the
State/County contract requires the Department of Child Support
Enforcement to carry forward local property tax levy funding to 2008 in an
amount equivalent to the $217,882 in incentive revenue that was
advanced to 2007. This increase in local funds must be used to support
County Child Support operations in 2008 and can be utilized to draw
down additional Federal matching funds. The following modifications
shall be made to the 2008 Budget for Org. Unit No. 2430 to effectuate
these changes:

successfully applied for and received a three-year Access to Recovery
grant totaling approximately $22 million in late 2004, which has provided
approximately $7 million in grant revenue during each of the past three
years. Nationwide funding for ATR recently has diminished, and BHD’s
ATR grant is expected to be reduced to approximately $4.8 million for
2008. This significant grant still provides the Division with considerably
more funding for AODA services than it possessed four years ago.

A $150,000 appropriation is included to continue funding of the Safe
Alternatives for Youth (SAY) program in 2008. This program was initially
established with a $150,000 appropriation in the 2003 County Budget to
provide community-based services to young people living in low-income
areas of Milwaukee County who were exposed to barriers that placed
them at risk in their community. Since 2003, under the direction of the
SAY Oversight Committee and the administration of the Milwaukee Urban
League as fiscal agent, SAY has distributed more than 80 small grants for
one-time educational, cultural, recreational and other activities, which
have enhanced life experiences of disadvantaged youth and have
positively impacted 3,000 youth.
In 2008, the SAY program will continue to operate under the provisions of
Adopted County Board Resolution File No. 03-247, which established the
Safe Homes (subsequently re-named Safe Alternatives for Youth)
Oversight Committee.

The Zoological Department is requesting that the Milwaukee County
Purchasing Administrator be authorized to issue and deliver letters of
intent to overseas vendors at a cost not to exceed $400,000 in aggregate
for advance ordering of the Zoo’s 2008 and 2009 resale purchases for
novelties and souvenirs in October of 2007 and October of 2008,
respectively. This amount is approximately 57% of the total requested
appropriation for resale novelties and souvenirs. A substantial portion of
resale merchandise sold at the Milwaukee County Zoo is purchased from
import vendors to provide the quantity and variety of items desired by the
general public visiting the Zoo. Due to the distance and travel time
required for overseas shipments, the Zoo must order resale merchandise
in the fall for spring delivery. Precedent exists in past County Board
authorization for the Zoo to purchase resale items for the upcoming year.
Budget authority is included in the 2008 Zoo budget in lieu of separate
review and approval during the budget year. The County Board of
Supervisors may revoke this authority if 2009 funds are not appropriated
for Zoo novelties and souvenirs during the 2009 budget deliberations in
October 2008.

This amendment would result in a zero tax levy impact. (1A021) (Vote 7-0)

1. Denying the termination of Milwaukee County’s contract with the Board of
Regents of the University of Wisconsin System effective 2008 as follows:
• In order to redirect property tax levy funds to higher priority core
County functions, the 2008 budget terminates the contract with the
Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin system effective
for 2008. According to language in the UW Extension sub-lease of
the Roosevelt School, $37,500 is budgeted for rent and related
lease expenses for the first four months of 2008.
2. Denying the abolishment of a Clerical Assistant 2 (NR) position by
increasing expenditures for salary, social security and active fringe
costs of $43,619, increasing expenditures for Services from $37,507 to
$274,695 and increasing expenditures for County Service Charges
from $0 to $12,806, for a total expenditure increase of $293,613 and
total revenue increase of $121,080.
• Due to the termination of the contract with the Board of Regents of
the University of Wisconsin System for UW Extension, the
following savings will be realized:
o Clerical Assistant 2 (NR) position abolished for salary, social
security, and active fringe cost savings of $43,621.
o Services eliminated for a cost savings of $239,811.
o County Service Charges eliminated for a cost savings of
$12,806.
• Due to the termination of the contract with the Board of Regents of
the University of Wisconsin System for UW Extension, $120,785 of
revenue is eliminated.
3. The abatement of countywide crosscharges is discontinued in 2008.
The tax levy previously in the servicing department is redistributed to
the recipient departments in an amount corresponding to the
crosscharges. This results in a tax levy redistribution equal to the
change in abatements. Due primarily to this change in methodology,
there is no increase or decrease in direct tax levy for this department
decreased $172,533.
The actual change in tax levy for this
department from 2007 is a decrease of $184,480 $11,947.
This amendment increases tax levy by $172,533. (1A018) (Vote 7-0)

Preliminary veto
Tuesday, November 06, 2007 11:44:24 PM
veto decisions.doc
High

Attached are the preliminary veto decisions. Keep in mind this is a draft
working document and should not be shared with others. Also keep in mind, this
is the first go at this and things will likely change based on how close we are
to zero, your feedback and other considerations.

At the end of each item is the tentative decision in red. The gray shade
represents my first stab at strikes (it is too confusing to do strikes given
the amendments have strikes in them as well).

There are three areas that have the biggest impact -- Parks funding. what to do
with the Courts and the contingency fund. Right now there is a priority on
maintaining as much as possible in the contingency fund. I don't know if this
will be possible or practical but it is our starting point. The Parks veto is
going to take some time. We need to sit down together and go over it. The
goal is to veto everything out the Board added except leave the roughly $600k
for seasonal. The CEX feels his original plan for Parks is still the way to go
and he wants to try through the veto to get back to that. While I tinkered
with the strikes on this a little, I did it last and I ran out of steam, so for
all practical purposes ignore my tinkering. The CEX wants to retain the
maintenance funds put in for Parks in the separate amendment that passed.

With the Courts, he wants to veto to retain the legal interns. You will see
that in my strikes. On top of that, he wants to lump sum $2.0 million in levy
and expenditures out of the Courts. I talked to legal late today, and
technically we can do this but we would have to do it off the main table that
showed to the total levy in the CEX submission. We can talk about this more.
I am not really sure this is the best way to go. It seems more honest to me to
veto out the state revenue, reduce expenditures by the same amount and reduce
the contingency fund by the same amount giving us a levy savings of about $2
million. Rob's fear is that the Board would override the veto of the state
revenue and courts spending but leave the reduction in the contingency fund or
even if the vetoes were sustained, the Courts would spend it anyway and there
would be nothing for them in the contingency fund. The CEX wants to do
something here to send a message to the state and save some levy at the same
time. The issue is how we go about it. In any event, this will require more
discussion. For now, we go with what the CEX said, lump sum $2 million in levy
and expend and don't touch contingency fund.

I think our main focus tomorrow should be on looking at what the CEX has thus
far decided, calculating what the real levy impact of those decisions are (so
we can see how far away from 0 we are) and making sure we can technically do
the veto to accomplish what he wants.

Pam, please note the comment on your capital item.

CArcher_Email3016303

For now when we are doing strikes, I would like to stick with using shading to
show strikes.

Molly and I will meet with each of you that have vetoes individually starting
in the morning so we can look at these in more detail.

Please ignore the bad grammar and misspelling. It is late and I have a dog
sleeping on my lap. :)

PS - Chad while he said leave transit alone, we still may need to come back and
veto some of those stray amendments added for segments at the end. Take a look
and see if any make sense in terms of ridership or cost just in case. There is
one veto on Waukesha zone fares that you may want to get some background from
George or Transit folks. Don't tell them we are vetoing it, but just get
background so we understand it better.

The $42,716 expenditure for membership in the Wisconsin Counties
Association (WCA) is placed in an allocated contingency account pending
receipt of a report from WCA on its specific efforts, and the results of those
efforts, to support the fiscal and programmatic interests of urban counties in
general, and Milwaukee County specifically. This report should include WCA
efforts made on behalf of Milwaukee County, either separately or working in

State Budget, including courts, juvenile justice and shared revenue, as well as
other legislation of particular interest or concern to Milwaukee County and
other urban counties. It also should include pro-active steps that have been
made to assure that employees within the top ranks of WCA reflect the diverse
demographics of the changing population of Wisconsin and its counties. Upon
receipt of said report, and analysis of that report by County Board staff, a fund

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 1000 –County Board, by increasing personal service expenditures
$29,851, reducing services expenditures $29,851 (including a reduction in
Supervisors’ individual office accounts due to a projected reduction in districtrelated activity during the first four months of 2008, and in other accounts), and
modifying the budget narrative as follows:
•

Expenditures of $29,851 are included for an increase in Milwaukee
County Supervisors’ salaries. Salaries for positions of County Supervisor
and County Board Chairman will increase four percent (4%) effective April
21, 2008, the commencement of the new Supervisory term, and remain at
that level for the duration of the 2008-2012 term. This adjustment reflects
the fact that the positions of County Supervisor and County Board
Chairman have not received a salary increase since 2000. Absent this
salary adjustment, Supervisor and County Board Chairman positions
would receive no increase for at least twelve (12) years. A March 14,
2007, survey of legislative and executive salaries by the Milwaukee
County Department of Audit supported a conclusion that Milwaukee
County Supervisor salaries are significantly lower than those in
comparable jurisdictions surveyed. This salary adjustment reflects an
effort to begin to address these survey findings.

•

Services are reduced $48,525 $18,674, from $347,064 to $298,539
$328,390, including a reduction in outside printing and stationery of

service, and reductions in other service accounts.

Milwaukee County adopted a resolution (File No. 07-77) on February 1,
2007 to allocate $100,000 to St. Catherine’s Residence, Inc. to assist in
financing a 46-unit addition of affordable housing to their facility on 1032 E.
Knapp Street. St. Catherine’s Residence, Inc. had applied for Wisconsin
Housing and Economic Development Authority grant funding and the
County Board’s action improved the possibility of receiving WHEDA
funding. This project was subsequently approved by WHEDA. The
resolution allocated the $100,000 from the 2006 appropriation in WO043 –
Milwaukee County Inclusive Housing Fund, which was to receive this
revenue from the sale of Park East land. No revenue was received in 2006
from the Park East land. This project will begin construction in 2008 and
this amendment will provide the funds needed to carry out the adopted
resolution in 2008.
This fund will be used to execute the housing provisions of the Park East
Redevelopment Compact (PERC). Milwaukee County has committed to
sponsor construction of new affordable housing of not less than 20 percent
of the total housing units built on the County’s Park East lands. The
County, in each request for proposal for any given parcel, may require a
different percentage of affordable housing or have no requirement at all.

Additional funding is included in the 2008 Appropriation for Contingencies

passage of the 2007-09 State Budget in late October 2007. The County
Executive Recommended Budget anticipated $4,157,246 in additional
State aid that was not realized in the approved State Budget. This
included $2,099,771 in circuit court support grants, $980,000 in shared
revenue and $1,077,475 in youth aids.
In addition, the County Executive’s proposal to close the Community
Correctional Facility (CCC) and release all of the inmates using global
positioning system (GPS) monitoring currently lacks a formal plan or bids

Section:
From 2002 through 2005, health care costs rose from $81.5 million to $120.2
million, an increase of 47.5%. Two key variables put the County on a path of
continued double-digit increases. The first was failure to resolve health care
benefit issues as part of labor negotiations. The second was a decision to
move the County's employee and retiree health care program from a selfinsured model to a fully-insured model. Labor negotiation was effectively
resolved under the leadership of the Committee on Personnel with the support
of the Committee on Finance and Audit as well as the Chairman and Members
of the County Board. As a result, annual health care costs were reduced by
about $12.5 million (assuming a maximum allowable increase of approximately
15.8% under the former fully-insured administrative contract). The second
major step in containing health care costs was the action of the Committee on
Finance and Audit to create the Health Care Workgroup. The Workgroup was
successful in negotiating a return to a self-insured program resulting in
approximately $10.5 million in savings to be realized in 2007 (again, compared
to increases of 15.8% under the former contract). Combined, these two
initiatives put the County in a position to achieve savings of approximately
$25.8 million for 2008 when compared to what costs could have been without
benefit design changes and without a return to a self-insured program.

For 2008, the Recommended Budget anticipates approximately $10.5 million
in expected savings from the issuance of $267 million in pension obligation
bonds, an increase of $4.25 million from the 2007 amount. Again, State
legislative approval is still necessary in order to issue and potentially realize
these budgeted savings. The County Executive first proposed pension
obligation bond financing as a means to achieve budgetary savings in the fall
of 2004. A Spring 2005 advisory public referendum on whether the County
should issue $261 million in pension obligation bonds was defeated by a vote
of 57% to 43%. Despite efforts by key County officials and staff, the
Legislature has thus far failed to provide the County with the authority to issue
pension obligation bonds to enable the County to achieve the anticipated
pension contribution savings.
As a safeguard against continued failure to achieve the necessary legislation,
the POB Work Group is encouraged to review additional modifications in
pension funding that could alleviate potential under funding of the pension
contribution if pension obligation bonds are not issued.
For background, the 2007 Recommended Budget assumed a budgetary
savings of $6.25 million each year based on the issuance of $455 million in
pension obligation bonds. The County Board assumed an additional pension
contribution savings of $3.5 million in 2007 based on an expected review and
change in current assumptions by the actuaries that impact funding
requirements.
In 2007, the County was notified that due to changes
recommended by the actuaries, the required pension contribution was lowered
by $6.6 million. The savings associated with a pension obligation bond
financing, however, have not been realized because the State has not
provided the County with the authority needed to issue pension obligation
bonds for the proposed timeframe.

Finance and Audit Committee as calculated per the required formula of the
Wisconsin Department of Revenue. If any action by the County Board on
November 5 causes that tax levy amount to change, then the computer tax
exemption revenue total will be recalculated by the Department of
Administrative Services per the Department of Revenue formula. The final
Property Tax Levy and Adopted Budget to be approved by the County Board
would then include the recalculated computer tax exemption revenue total,
which would be different from the total cited above. Do we reestimate this
based on vetoes or leave as is?
COUNTY SALES TAX REVENUE

1996

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 1996 – County Sales Tax Revenue, by modifying the narrative language
on page 1996-2 as follows:
Sales and Use Tax Ordinance
Section 22.04, Milwaukee County Ordinances, originally required sales tax
revenue be used to pay tax-supported debt service costs. Surplus revenues
not needed for debt service payments were required to be used to directly
finance capital improvements.
On June 18, 2003, the County Board of Supervisors approved Resolution File
No. 03-263(a)(a), which modified Section 22.04 of the General Ordinances so
that surplus sales and use tax revenues could be used to also pre-fund
employee benefit costs or fund anticipated or extraordinary annual increases in
such costs or supplement the Appropriation for Contingencies. The 2003
resolution permitted excess sales tax revenues to be used for the above
general fund purposes through calendar year 2007.

As noted above, 2008 sales tax collections are projected at $66,225,949. The
State repayment amount is $600,000, amounts committed to capital
improvements in 2008 are estimated at $417,000, and debt service costs for
2008 are estimated at $53,431,913, resulting in excess sales and use tax
revenues for 2008 of $11,777,036. Under the current Milwaukee County Sales
Tax Ordinance, the excess could only be used to cash finance 2008 capital
improvements.
A revised Ordinance will be submitted with the 2008
Recommended Budget to permanently codify the 2003 provisions scheduled to
sunset in 2007. This allows all or a portion of the excess to be applied toward
the County’s Pension Fund Contribution, Employee/Retiree Health Care costs,
or the Appropriation for Contingencies. The Committee on Finance and Audit
during its 2008 budget deliberations deferred the matter to its December 2007
meeting for further policy consideration and action.

Child Support Enforcement with early access to $217,882 of Milwaukee
County’s 2008 incentive revenue allocation. The advanced funding will
support 2007 Child Support Enforcement operations. In exchange, the
State/County contract requires the Department of Child Support
Enforcement to carry forward local property tax levy funding to 2008 in an
amount equivalent to the $217,882 in incentive revenue that was
advanced to 2007. This increase in local funds must be used to support
County Child Support operations in 2008 and can be utilized to draw
down additional Federal matching funds. The following modifications

•

AODA prevention and intervention contracts are reduced $2,610,087, due
primarily to the anticipated decrease in Federal grant revenue for the
Access to Recovery (ATR) program. BHD, via the State of Wisconsin,
successfully applied for and received a three-year Access to Recovery
grant totaling approximately $22 million in late 2004, which has provided
approximately $7 million in grant revenue during each of the past three
years. Nationwide funding for ATR recently has diminished, and BHD’s
ATR grant is expected to be reduced to approximately $4.8 million for
2008. This significant grant still provides the Division with considerably
more funding for AODA services than it possessed four years ago.

•

Due to this significant reduction in Access to Recovery funding, an
additional $600,000 in tax levy funding is allocated for maintenance of
effort for AODA prevention and intervention services in 2008.

A $150,000 appropriation is included to continue funding of the Safe

provide community-based services to young people living in low-income
areas of Milwaukee County who were exposed to barriers that placed
them at risk in their community. Since 2003, under the direction of the

League as fiscal agent, SAY has distributed more than 80 small grants for

one-time educational, cultural, recreational and other activities, which
have enhanced life experiences of disadvantaged youth and have
positively impacted 3,000 youth.
In 2008, the SAY program will continue to operate under the provisions of
Adopted County Board Resolution File No. 03-247, which established the
Safe Homes (subsequently re-named Safe Alternatives for Youth)
Oversight Committee.
Consistent with the terms of the Adopted
Resolution, the SAY Oversight Committee, appointed by the County Board
Chairman, will continue to oversee the program and direct the distribution
of small SAY grants, and the Milwaukee Urban League will continue to
serve as SAY fiscal agent. The Director of the Department of Health and
Human Services shall execute a contract in the amount of $12,000 with
the Milwaukee Urban League for fiscal agent services, including serving as
depository for the funds to be allocated, distributing the funds as directed
by the SAY Oversight Committee, preparing and distributing tax forms for
grantees, and providing quarterly reports on the distribution of funds and
remaining balances to the SAY Oversight Committee. In addition, the
Director of the Department of Health and Human Services is authorized to

vendors at a cost not to exceed $400,000 in aggregate for advance ordering of
the Zoo’s 2008 resale purchases for novelties and souvenirs in October of
2007. This would be in addition to authorization for advance ordering of the

•

The Zoological Department is requesting that the Milwaukee County
Purchasing Administrator be authorized to issue and deliver letters of
intent to overseas vendors at a cost not to exceed $400,000 in aggregate
for advance ordering of the Zoo’s 2008 and 2009 resale purchases for
novelties and souvenirs in October of 2007 and October of 2008,
respectively. This amount is approximately 57% of the total requested
appropriation for resale novelties and souvenirs. A substantial portion of
resale merchandise sold at the Milwaukee County Zoo is purchased from
import vendors to provide the quantity and variety of items desired by the
general public visiting the Zoo. Due to the distance and travel time
required for overseas shipments, the Zoo must order resale merchandise
in the fall for spring delivery. Precedent exists in past County Board
authorization for the Zoo to purchase resale items for the upcoming year.
Budget authority is included in the 2008 Zoo budget in lieu of separate
review and approval during the budget year. The County Board of

No. 9910 – Milwaukee County University Extension Service, by restoring
funding to the 2007 level by increasing expenditures $293,613 and increasing
revenues $121,080 for a net tax levy increase of $172,533. This will be
accomplished by the following actions, including amending the budget
narrative on page 9910 - 3:

$293,613

$121,080

$172,533

1. Denying the termination of Milwaukee County’s contract with the Board of
Regents of the University of Wisconsin System effective 2008 as follows:
• In order to redirect property tax levy funds to higher priority core
County functions, the 2008 budget terminates the contract with the
Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin system effective
for 2008. According to language in the UW Extension sub-lease of
the Roosevelt School, $37,500 is budgeted for rent and related
lease expenses for the first four months of 2008.
2. Denying the abolishment of a Clerical Assistant 2 (NR) position by
increasing expenditures for salary, social security and active fringe
costs of $43,619, increasing expenditures for Services from $37,507 to
$274,695 and increasing expenditures for County Service Charges
from $0 to $12,806, for a total expenditure increase of $293,613 and
total revenue increase of $121,080.
• Due to the termination of the contract with the Board of Regents of
the University of Wisconsin System for UW Extension, the
following savings will be realized:
o Clerical Assistant 2 (NR) position abolished for salary, social
security, and active fringe cost savings of $43,621.
o Services eliminated for a cost savings of $239,811.
o County Service Charges eliminated for a cost savings of
$12,806.

revenue is eliminated.
3. The abatement of countywide crosscharges is discontinued in 2008.
The tax levy previously in the servicing department is redistributed to
the recipient departments in an amount corresponding to the
crosscharges. This results in a tax levy redistribution equal to the
change in abatements. Due primarily to this change in methodology,
there is no increase or decrease in direct tax levy for this department
decreased $172,533.
The actual change in tax levy for this
department from 2007 is a decrease of $184,480 $11,947.
This amendment increases tax levy by $172,533. (1A018) (Vote 7-0)
Veto to return to CEX original proposal. Impact of veto should leave required
lease payments per CEX budget. We need to look at this one. I am not sure it
is as simple as vetoing this entire amendment. We need to look at what would
remain and talk to Corp Counsel.

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Capital Improvements
Budget for a new capital project, Mary Ryan Boys and Girls Club Building
Improvements, by increasing general obligation bonding by $57,000.
The Mary Ryan Boys and Girls Club of Greater Milwaukee has embarked on
their Decade of Hope initiative, a promise to increase the number of children
involved in youth development programming, especially for teens. This
initiative requires the remodeling of the Mary Ryan Boys and Girls Club
building, which is located in Sherman Park and owned by Milwaukee County.
The Mary Ryan Club secured $40,000 in 2008 Community Development Block
Grant funds but needed repairs to the building total $97,000. Therefore, this
appropriation will be used to fund the remainder of the maintenance projects,
which include upgrading the sewer service to the building.

Budget, by increasing general obligation bonding by $150,000 to complete

The water main leading to the golf course was replaced in 2006. However, it
was soon discovered that the water lines that carry the water to the sprinkler
heads and the sprinkler heads were corroded and in need of replacement.
Currently, park workers must regularly clean out the water lines and sprinkler
heads to remove the corrosion so that sprinklers can work properly. This
appropriation would replace all of the corroded plumbing.

County Board in September 2007 (File No. 06-482(a)).
The purpose of the project is to improve the park for County residents with a
focus on creating a regional park for multicultural and intergenerational passive

at $5,137,356, which includes a County commitment of $400,000. The County
commitment could include funds from donations, grants or $100,000 from the
City of Milwaukee’s tax incremental finance district that includes Johnsons
Park.
The Parks Department, in consultation with the Department of Administrative
Services, will work with Johnsons Park LLC to determine the best use of the

New partition systems are lighter, less moving parts and acoustically superior

File No. 07-379

AMENDMENT NO. 1
WHEREAS, the County Executive’s 2008 Budget, submitted to the County Board of Supervisors on September 27, 2007, has been reviewed by the
Committee on Finance and Audit in a series of meetings to, and including, October 31, 2007, now therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED, that the County Executive’s 2008 Budget be amended as follows:

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 1000 – County Board, by increasing expenditures $86,809 to restore gross
wages funded to 100% from 97%, and modifying the budget narrative as
follows:
•

Personal services expenditures without fringe benefits increase $110,719
$23,910, from $2,967,249 to $3,077,968 $2,991,159.

This amendment removes a 3% vacancy and turnover salary deduction to
County Board personal service expenditures, and essentially establishes the
County Board tax levy budget at the same level as the 2007 Adopted Budget.
This amendment would increase tax levy by $86,809. (1A035) (Vote 7-0)

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 1000 – County Board, by placing the expenditure of $42,716 for
membership in the Wisconsin Counties Association into an allocated
contingency account and adding the following bullet point to the budget
narrative:
The $42,716 expenditure for membership in the Wisconsin Counties
Association (WCA) is placed in an allocated contingency account pending
receipt of a report from WCA on its specific efforts, and the results of those
efforts, to support the fiscal and programmatic interests of urban counties in
general, and Milwaukee County specifically. This report should include WCA
efforts made on behalf of Milwaukee County, either separately or working in

conjunction with Milwaukee County representatives, with regard to the 2007-09
State Budget, including courts, juvenile justice and shared revenue, as well as
other legislation of particular interest or concern to Milwaukee County and
other urban counties. It also should include pro-active steps that have been
made to assure that employees within the top ranks of WCA reflect the diverse
demographics of the changing population of Wisconsin and its counties. Upon
receipt of said report, and analysis of that report by County Board staff, a fund
transfer may be prepared to remove the expenditure form the allocated
contingency account for possible payment of 2008 WCA membership dues.
This amendment would have a tax levy impact of $0. (1A036) (Vote 7-0)

3.

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 1000 –County Board, by increasing personal service expenditures
$29,851, reducing services expenditures $29,851 (including a reduction in
Supervisors’ individual office accounts due to a projected reduction in districtrelated activity during the first four months of 2008, and in other accounts), and
modifying the budget narrative as follows:
•

Expenditures of $29,851 are included for an increase in Milwaukee
County Supervisors’ salaries. Salaries for positions of County Supervisor
and County Board Chairman will increase four percent (4%) effective April
21, 2008, the commencement of the new Supervisory term, and remain at
that level for the duration of the 2008-2012 term. This adjustment reflects
the fact that the positions of County Supervisor and County Board
Chairman have not received a salary increase since 2000. Absent this
salary adjustment, Supervisor and County Board Chairman positions
would receive no increase for at least twelve (12) years. A March 14,
2007, survey of legislative and executive salaries by the Milwaukee
County Department of Audit supported a conclusion that Milwaukee
County Supervisor salaries are significantly lower than those in
comparable jurisdictions surveyed. This salary adjustment reflects an
effort to begin to address these survey findings.

•

Services are reduced $48,525 $18,674, from $347,064 to $298,539
$328,390, including a reduction in outside printing and stationery of
$6,000, to reflect increased use of the House of Correction printing
service, and reductions in other service accounts.

services to the Airport and to the Milwaukee County Transit System
remain at the 2007 level of $25,000 each.

The Department of Administrative Services – Fiscal Affairs Division will adjust
expenditures and revenues for the various capital projects in the 2008
Recommended Capital Improvements Budget to reflect the increase in
expenditures and general obligation bonds for contract compliance services for
disadvantage business enterprise participation on capital projects.
Expenditures in Org. Unit No. 5040 – Department of Transportation and Public

Milwaukee County adopted a resolution (File No. 07-77) on February 1,
2007 to allocate $100,000 to St. Catherine’s Residence, Inc. to assist in
financing a 46-unit addition of affordable housing to their facility on 1032 E.
Knapp Street. St. Catherine’s Residence, Inc. had applied for Wisconsin
Housing and Economic Development Authority grant funding and the
County Board’s action improved the possibility of receiving WHEDA
funding. This project was subsequently approved by WHEDA. The
resolution allocated the $100,000 from the 2006 appropriation in WO043 –
Milwaukee County Inclusive Housing Fund, which was to receive this
revenue from the sale of Park East land. No revenue was received in 2006
from the Park East land. This project will begin construction in 2008 and
this amendment will provide the funds needed to carry out the adopted
resolution in 2008.
This fund will be used to execute the housing provisions of the Park East
Redevelopment Compact (PERC). Milwaukee County has committed to
sponsor construction of new affordable housing of not less than 20 percent
of the total housing units built on the County’s Park East lands. The
County, in each request for proposal for any given parcel, may require a
different percentage of affordable housing or have no requirement at all.

In 2008 the Appropriation for Contingencies is budgeted at $3,155,758

Of this amount, $200,000 is specifically reserved for
implementing recommendations of the Code of Ethics Study Committee
should those recommendations be approved by the County Board and
require additional expenditures in 2008.
Additional funding is included in the 2008 Appropriation for Contingencies
to help partially mitigate State revenues that were not realized upon
passage of the 2007-09 State Budget in late October 2007. The County
Executive Recommended Budget anticipated $4,157,246 in additional
State aid that was not realized in the approved State Budget. This
included $2,099,771 in circuit court support grants, $980,000 in shared
revenue and $1,077,475 in youth aids.
In addition, the County Executive’s proposal to close the Community
Correctional Facility (CCC) and release all of the inmates using global
positioning system (GPS) monitoring currently lacks a formal plan or bids
as to the monitoring capacity, costs or enforcement of violations. The
Committee on Judiciary, Safety and General Services will review this
initiative and provide further policy and direction that may necessitate
additional funding in 2008.

Section:
From 2002 through 2005, health care costs rose from $81.5 million to $120.2
million, an increase of 47.5%. Two key variables put the County on a path of
continued double-digit increases. The first was failure to resolve health care
benefit issues as part of labor negotiations. The second was a decision to
move the County's employee and retiree health care program from a selfinsured model to a fully-insured model. Labor negotiation was effectively
resolved under the leadership of the Committee on Personnel with the support
of the Committee on Finance and Audit as well as the Chairman and Members
of the County Board. As a result, annual health care costs were reduced by
about $12.5 million (assuming a maximum allowable increase of approximately
15.8% under the former fully-insured administrative contract). The second
major step in containing health care costs was the action of the Committee on
Finance and Audit to create the Health Care Workgroup. The Workgroup was
successful in negotiating a return to a self-insured program resulting in
approximately $10.5 million in savings to be realized in 2007 (again, compared
to increases of 15.8% under the former contract). Combined, these two
initiatives put the County in a position to achieve savings of approximately
$25.8 million for 2008 when compared to what costs could have been without
benefit design changes and without a return to a self-insured program.

For 2008, the Recommended Budget anticipates approximately $10.5 million
in expected savings from the issuance of $267 million in pension obligation
bonds, an increase of $4.25 million from the 2007 amount. Again, State
legislative approval is still necessary in order to issue and potentially realize
these budgeted savings. The County Executive first proposed pension
obligation bond financing as a means to achieve budgetary savings in the fall
of 2004. A Spring 2005 advisory public referendum on whether the County
should issue $261 million in pension obligation bonds was defeated by a vote
of 57% to 43%. Despite efforts by key County officials and staff, the
Legislature has thus far failed to provide the County with the authority to issue
pension obligation bonds to enable the County to achieve the anticipated
pension contribution savings.
As a safeguard against continued failure to achieve the necessary legislation,
the POB Work Group is encouraged to review additional modifications in
pension funding that could alleviate potential under funding of the pension
contribution if pension obligation bonds are not issued.
For background, the 2007 Recommended Budget assumed a budgetary
savings of $6.25 million each year based on the issuance of $455 million in
pension obligation bonds. The County Board assumed an additional pension
contribution savings of $3.5 million in 2007 based on an expected review and
change in current assumptions by the actuaries that impact funding
requirements.
In 2007, the County was notified that due to changes
recommended by the actuaries, the required pension contribution was lowered
by $6.6 million. The savings associated with a pension obligation bond
financing, however, have not been realized because the State has not
provided the County with the authority needed to issue pension obligation
bonds for the proposed timeframe.

This amendment reduces the tax levy by $89,286. (1C013) (Vote 7-0)
NOTE: This amount is based on the tax levy amount recommended by the
Finance and Audit Committee as calculated per the required formula of the
Wisconsin Department of Revenue. If any action by the County Board on
November 5 causes that tax levy amount to change, then the computer tax
exemption revenue total will be recalculated by the Department of
Administrative Services per the Department of Revenue formula. The final
Property Tax Levy and Adopted Budget to be approved by the County Board
would then include the recalculated computer tax exemption revenue total,

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 1996 – County Sales Tax Revenue, by modifying the narrative language
on page 1996-2 as follows:
Sales and Use Tax Ordinance
Section 22.04, Milwaukee County Ordinances, originally required sales tax
revenue be used to pay tax-supported debt service costs. Surplus revenues
not needed for debt service payments were required to be used to directly
finance capital improvements.
On June 18, 2003, the County Board of Supervisors approved Resolution File
No. 03-263(a)(a), which modified Section 22.04 of the General Ordinances so
that surplus sales and use tax revenues could be used to also pre-fund
employee benefit costs or fund anticipated or extraordinary annual increases in
such costs or supplement the Appropriation for Contingencies. The 2003
resolution permitted excess sales tax revenues to be used for the above
general fund purposes through calendar year 2007.

As noted above, 2008 sales tax collections are projected at $66,225,949. The
State repayment amount is $600,000, amounts committed to capital
improvements in 2008 are estimated at $417,000, and debt service costs for
2008 are estimated at $53,431,913, resulting in excess sales and use tax
revenues for 2008 of $11,777,036. Under the current Milwaukee County Sales
Tax Ordinance, the excess could only be used to cash finance 2008 capital
improvements.
A revised Ordinance will be submitted with the 2008
Recommended Budget to permanently codify the 2003 provisions scheduled to
sunset in 2007. This allows all or a portion of the excess to be applied toward
the County’s Pension Fund Contribution, Employee/Retiree Health Care costs,
or the Appropriation for Contingencies. The Committee on Finance and Audit
during its 2008 budget deliberations deferred the matter to its December 2007
meeting for further policy consideration and action.

State/County contract requires the Department of Child Support
Enforcement to carry forward local property tax levy funding to 2008 in an

•

AODA prevention and intervention contracts are reduced $2,610,087, due
primarily to the anticipated decrease in Federal grant revenue for the
Access to Recovery (ATR) program. BHD, via the State of Wisconsin,
successfully applied for and received a three-year Access to Recovery
grant totaling approximately $22 million in late 2004, which has provided
approximately $7 million in grant revenue during each of the past three
years. Nationwide funding for ATR recently has diminished, and BHD’s
ATR grant is expected to be reduced to approximately $4.8 million for
2008. This significant grant still provides the Division with considerably
more funding for AODA services than it possessed four years ago.

•

Due to this significant reduction in Access to Recovery funding, an
additional $600,000 in tax levy funding is allocated for maintenance of
effort for AODA prevention and intervention services in 2008.

A $150,000 appropriation is included to continue funding of the Safe
Alternatives for Youth (SAY) program in 2008. This program was initially
established with a $150,000 appropriation in the 2003 County Budget to
provide community-based services to young people living in low-income
areas of Milwaukee County who were exposed to barriers that placed
them at risk in their community. Since 2003, under the direction of the

League as fiscal agent, SAY has distributed more than 80 small grants for

one-time educational, cultural, recreational and other activities, which
have enhanced life experiences of disadvantaged youth and have

In 2008, the SAY program will continue to operate under the provisions of
Adopted County Board Resolution File No. 03-247, which established the
Safe Homes (subsequently re-named Safe Alternatives for Youth)
Oversight Committee.
Consistent with the terms of the Adopted
Resolution, the SAY Oversight Committee, appointed by the County Board
Chairman, will continue to oversee the program and direct the distribution
of small SAY grants, and the Milwaukee Urban League will continue to
serve as SAY fiscal agent. The Director of the Department of Health and
Human Services shall execute a contract in the amount of $12,000 with
the Milwaukee Urban League for fiscal agent services, including serving as
depository for the funds to be allocated, distributing the funds as directed
by the SAY Oversight Committee, preparing and distributing tax forms for

•

The Zoological Department is requesting that the Milwaukee County
Purchasing Administrator be authorized to issue and deliver letters of
intent to overseas vendors at a cost not to exceed $400,000 in aggregate
for advance ordering of the Zoo’s 2008 and 2009 resale purchases for
novelties and souvenirs in October of 2007 and October of 2008,
respectively. This amount is approximately 57% of the total requested
appropriation for resale novelties and souvenirs. A substantial portion of
resale merchandise sold at the Milwaukee County Zoo is purchased from
import vendors to provide the quantity and variety of items desired by the
general public visiting the Zoo. Due to the distance and travel time
required for overseas shipments, the Zoo must order resale merchandise
in the fall for spring delivery. Precedent exists in past County Board
authorization for the Zoo to purchase resale items for the upcoming year.
Budget authority is included in the 2008 Zoo budget in lieu of separate
review and approval during the budget year. The County Board of

funding to the 2007 level by increasing expenditures $293,613 and increasing
revenues $121,080 for a net tax levy increase of $172,533. This will be
accomplished by the following actions, including amending the budget
narrative on page 9910 - 3:

$293,613

$121,080

$172,533

1. Denying the termination of Milwaukee County’s contract with the Board of
Regents of the University of Wisconsin System effective 2008 as follows:
• In order to redirect property tax levy funds to higher priority core
County functions, the 2008 budget terminates the contract with the
Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin system effective
for 2008. According to language in the UW Extension sub-lease of
the Roosevelt School, $37,500 is budgeted for rent and related
lease expenses for the first four months of 2008.
2. Denying the abolishment of a Clerical Assistant 2 (NR) position by
increasing expenditures for salary, social security and active fringe
costs of $43,619, increasing expenditures for Services from $37,507 to
$274,695 and increasing expenditures for County Service Charges
from $0 to $12,806, for a total expenditure increase of $293,613 and
total revenue increase of $121,080.
• Due to the termination of the contract with the Board of Regents of
the University of Wisconsin System for UW Extension, the
following savings will be realized:
o Clerical Assistant 2 (NR) position abolished for salary, social
security, and active fringe cost savings of $43,621.
o Services eliminated for a cost savings of $239,811.
o County Service Charges eliminated for a cost savings of

revenue is eliminated.
3. The abatement of countywide crosscharges is discontinued in 2008.
The tax levy previously in the servicing department is redistributed to
the recipient departments in an amount corresponding to the
crosscharges. This results in a tax levy redistribution equal to the
change in abatements. Due primarily to this change in methodology,
there is no increase or decrease in direct tax levy for this department
decreased $172,533.
The actual change in tax levy for this
department from 2007 is a decrease of $184,480 $11,947.
This amendment increases tax levy by $172,533. (1A018) (Vote 7-0)
Veto to return to CEX original proposal. Impact of veto should leave required
lease payments per CEX budget. We need to look at this one. I am not sure it
is as simple as vetoing this entire amendment. We need to look at what would

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Capital Improvements
Budget for a new capital project, Mary Ryan Boys and Girls Club Building
Improvements, by increasing general obligation bonding by $57,000.
The Mary Ryan Boys and Girls Club of Greater Milwaukee has embarked on
their Decade of Hope initiative, a promise to increase the number of children
involved in youth development programming, especially for teens. This
initiative requires the remodeling of the Mary Ryan Boys and Girls Club
building, which is located in Sherman Park and owned by Milwaukee County.
The Mary Ryan Club secured $40,000 in 2008 Community Development Block
Grant funds but needed repairs to the building total $97,000. Therefore, this
appropriation will be used to fund the remainder of the maintenance projects,
which include upgrading the sewer service to the building.

heads and the sprinkler heads were corroded and in need of replacement.
Currently, park workers must regularly clean out the water lines and sprinkler
heads to remove the corrosion so that sprinklers can work properly. This
appropriation would replace all of the corroded plumbing.

at $5,137,356, which includes a County commitment of $400,000. The County
commitment could include funds from donations, grants or $100,000 from the
City of Milwaukee’s tax incremental finance district that includes Johnsons

The Parks Department, in consultation with the Department of Administrative
Services, will work with Johnsons Park LLC to determine the best use of the

See amendment 1C013 for State Exempt Computer Aid located on page 12.
NOTE: This amount is based on the tax levy amount recommended by the Finance
and Audit Committee as calculated per the required formula of the Wisconsin
Department of Revenue. If any action by the County Board on November 5 causes
that tax levy amount to change, then the computer tax exemption revenue total will be
recalculated by the Department of Administrative Services per the Department of
Revenue formula. The final Property Tax Levy and Adopted Budget to be approved
by the County Board would then include the recalculated computer tax exemption
revenue total, which would be different from the total cited above.

File No. 07-379

AMENDMENT NO. 1
WHEREAS, the County Executive’s 2008 Budget, submitted to the County Board of Supervisors on September 27, 2007, has been reviewed by the
Committee on Finance and Audit in a series of meetings to, and including, October 31, 2007, now therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED, that the County Executive’s 2008 Budget be amended as follows:

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 1000 – County Board, by increasing expenditures $86,809 to restore gross
wages funded to 100% from 97%, and modifying the budget narrative as
follows:
•

Personal services expenditures without fringe benefits increase $110,719
$23,910, from $2,967,249 to $3,077,968 $2,991,159.

This amendment removes a 3% vacancy and turnover salary deduction to
County Board personal service expenditures, and essentially establishes the
County Board tax levy budget at the same level as the 2007 Adopted Budget.
This amendment would increase tax levy by $86,809. (1A035) (Vote 7-0)

2.

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 1000 – County Board, by placing the expenditure of $42,716 for
membership in the Wisconsin Counties Association into an allocated
contingency account and adding the following bullet point to the budget
narrative:
The $42,716 expenditure for membership in the Wisconsin Counties
Association (WCA) is placed in an allocated contingency account pending
receipt of a report from WCA on its specific efforts, and the results of those
efforts, to support the fiscal and programmatic interests of urban counties in
general, and Milwaukee County specifically. This report should include WCA
efforts made on behalf of Milwaukee County, either separately or working in

conjunction with Milwaukee County representatives, with regard to the 2007-09
State Budget, including courts, juvenile justice and shared revenue, as well as
other legislation of particular interest or concern to Milwaukee County and
other urban counties. It also should include pro-active steps that have been
made to assure that employees within the top ranks of WCA reflect the diverse
demographics of the changing population of Wisconsin and its counties. Upon
receipt of said report, and analysis of that report by County Board staff, a fund
transfer may be prepared to remove the expenditure form the allocated
contingency account for possible payment of 2008 WCA membership dues.
This amendment would have a tax levy impact of $0. (1A036) (Vote 7-0)

3.

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 1000 –County Board, by increasing personal service expenditures
$29,851, reducing services expenditures $29,851 (including a reduction in
Supervisors’ individual office accounts due to a projected reduction in districtrelated activity during the first four months of 2008, and in other accounts), and
modifying the budget narrative as follows:
•

Expenditures of $29,851 are included for an increase in Milwaukee
County Supervisors’ salaries. Salaries for positions of County Supervisor
and County Board Chairman will increase four percent (4%) effective April
21, 2008, the commencement of the new Supervisory term, and remain at
that level for the duration of the 2008-2012 term. This adjustment reflects
the fact that the positions of County Supervisor and County Board
Chairman have not received a salary increase since 2000. Absent this
salary adjustment, Supervisor and County Board Chairman positions
would receive no increase for at least twelve (12) years. A March 14,
2007, survey of legislative and executive salaries by the Milwaukee
County Department of Audit supported a conclusion that Milwaukee
County Supervisor salaries are significantly lower than those in
comparable jurisdictions surveyed. This salary adjustment reflects an
effort to begin to address these survey findings.

•

Services are reduced $48,525 $18,674, from $347,064 to $298,539
$328,390, including a reduction in outside printing and stationery of
$6,000, to reflect increased use of the House of Correction printing
service, and reductions in other service accounts.

services to the Airport and to the Milwaukee County Transit System
remain at the 2007 level of $25,000 each.

The Department of Administrative Services – Fiscal Affairs Division will adjust
expenditures and revenues for the various capital projects in the 2008
Recommended Capital Improvements Budget to reflect the increase in
expenditures and general obligation bonds for contract compliance services for
disadvantage business enterprise participation on capital projects.
Expenditures in Org. Unit No. 5040 – Department of Transportation and Public

Milwaukee County adopted a resolution (File No. 07-77) on February 1,
2007 to allocate $100,000 to St. Catherine’s Residence, Inc. to assist in
financing a 46-unit addition of affordable housing to their facility on 1032 E.
Knapp Street. St. Catherine’s Residence, Inc. had applied for Wisconsin
Housing and Economic Development Authority grant funding and the
County Board’s action improved the possibility of receiving WHEDA
funding. This project was subsequently approved by WHEDA. The
resolution allocated the $100,000 from the 2006 appropriation in WO043 –
Milwaukee County Inclusive Housing Fund, which was to receive this
revenue from the sale of Park East land. No revenue was received in 2006
from the Park East land. This project will begin construction in 2008 and
this amendment will provide the funds needed to carry out the adopted
resolution in 2008.
This fund will be used to execute the housing provisions of the Park East
Redevelopment Compact (PERC). Milwaukee County has committed to
sponsor construction of new affordable housing of not less than 20 percent
of the total housing units built on the County’s Park East lands. The
County, in each request for proposal for any given parcel, may require a
different percentage of affordable housing or have no requirement at all.

In 2008 the Appropriation for Contingencies is budgeted at $3,155,758
6,155,758.
Of this amount, $200,000 is specifically reserved for
implementing recommendations of the Code of Ethics Study Committee
should those recommendations be approved by the County Board and
require additional expenditures in 2008.
Additional funding is included in the 2008 Appropriation for Contingencies
to help partially mitigate State revenues that were not realized upon
passage of the 2007-09 State Budget in late October 2007. The County
Executive Recommended Budget anticipated $4,157,246 in additional
State aid that was not realized in the approved State Budget. This
included $2,099,771 in circuit court support grants, $980,000 in shared
revenue and $1,077,475 in youth aids.
In addition, the County Executive’s proposal to close the Community
Correctional Facility (CCC) and release all of the inmates using global
positioning system (GPS) monitoring currently lacks a formal plan or bids
as to the monitoring capacity, costs or enforcement of violations. The
Committee on Judiciary, Safety and General Services will review this
initiative and provide further policy and direction that may necessitate
additional funding in 2008.

No. 1950 – Employee Fringe Benefits, by inserting the following language to
the narrative on page 1950 - 2 at the end of the 5403 – Health Benefits
Section:
From 2002 through 2005, health care costs rose from $81.5 million to $120.2
million, an increase of 47.5%. Two key variables put the County on a path of
continued double-digit increases. The first was failure to resolve health care
benefit issues as part of labor negotiations. The second was a decision to
move the County's employee and retiree health care program from a selfinsured model to a fully-insured model. Labor negotiation was effectively
resolved under the leadership of the Committee on Personnel with the support
of the Committee on Finance and Audit as well as the Chairman and Members
of the County Board. As a result, annual health care costs were reduced by
about $12.5 million (assuming a maximum allowable increase of approximately
15.8% under the former fully-insured administrative contract). The second
major step in containing health care costs was the action of the Committee on
Finance and Audit to create the Health Care Workgroup. The Workgroup was
successful in negotiating a return to a self-insured program resulting in
approximately $10.5 million in savings to be realized in 2007 (again, compared
to increases of 15.8% under the former contract). Combined, these two
initiatives put the County in a position to achieve savings of approximately
$25.8 million for 2008 when compared to what costs could have been without
benefit design changes and without a return to a self-insured program.

For 2008, the Recommended Budget anticipates approximately $10.5 million
in expected savings from the issuance of $267 million in pension obligation
bonds, an increase of $4.25 million from the 2007 amount. Again, State
legislative approval is still necessary in order to issue and potentially realize
these budgeted savings. The County Executive first proposed pension
obligation bond financing as a means to achieve budgetary savings in the fall
of 2004. A Spring 2005 advisory public referendum on whether the County
should issue $261 million in pension obligation bonds was defeated by a vote
of 57% to 43%. Despite efforts by key County officials and staff, the
Legislature has thus far failed to provide the County with the authority to issue
pension obligation bonds to enable the County to achieve the anticipated
pension contribution savings.
As a safeguard against continued failure to achieve the necessary legislation,
the POB Work Group is encouraged to review additional modifications in
pension funding that could alleviate potential under funding of the pension
contribution if pension obligation bonds are not issued.
For background, the 2007 Recommended Budget assumed a budgetary
savings of $6.25 million each year based on the issuance of $455 million in
pension obligation bonds. The County Board assumed an additional pension
contribution savings of $3.5 million in 2007 based on an expected review and
change in current assumptions by the actuaries that impact funding
requirements.
In 2007, the County was notified that due to changes
recommended by the actuaries, the required pension contribution was lowered
by $6.6 million. The savings associated with a pension obligation bond
financing, however, have not been realized because the State has not
provided the County with the authority needed to issue pension obligation
bonds for the proposed timeframe.

Sales and Use Tax Ordinance
Section 22.04, Milwaukee County Ordinances, originally required sales tax
revenue be used to pay tax-supported debt service costs. Surplus revenues
not needed for debt service payments were required to be used to directly
finance capital improvements.
On June 18, 2003, the County Board of Supervisors approved Resolution File
No. 03-263(a)(a), which modified Section 22.04 of the General Ordinances so
that surplus sales and use tax revenues could be used to also pre-fund
employee benefit costs or fund anticipated or extraordinary annual increases in
such costs or supplement the Appropriation for Contingencies. The 2003
resolution permitted excess sales tax revenues to be used for the above
general fund purposes through calendar year 2007.

As noted above, 2008 sales tax collections are projected at $66,225,949. The
State repayment amount is $600,000, amounts committed to capital
improvements in 2008 are estimated at $417,000, and debt service costs for
2008 are estimated at $53,431,913, resulting in excess sales and use tax
revenues for 2008 of $11,777,036. Under the current Milwaukee County Sales
Tax Ordinance, the excess could only be used to cash finance 2008 capital
improvements.
A revised Ordinance will be submitted with the 2008
Recommended Budget to permanently codify the 2003 provisions scheduled to
sunset in 2007. This allows all or a portion of the excess to be applied toward
the County’s Pension Fund Contribution, Employee/Retiree Health Care costs,
or the Appropriation for Contingencies. The Committee on Finance and Audit
during its 2008 budget deliberations deferred the matter to its December 2007

primarily to the anticipated decrease in Federal grant revenue for the
Access to Recovery (ATR) program. BHD, via the State of Wisconsin,
successfully applied for and received a three-year Access to Recovery
grant totaling approximately $22 million in late 2004, which has provided
approximately $7 million in grant revenue during each of the past three
years. Nationwide funding for ATR recently has diminished, and BHD’s
ATR grant is expected to be reduced to approximately $4.8 million for
2008. This significant grant still provides the Division with considerably
more funding for AODA services than it possessed four years ago.

•

Due to this significant reduction in Access to Recovery funding, an
additional $600,000 in tax levy funding is allocated for maintenance of
effort for AODA prevention and intervention services in 2008.

Safe Alternatives for Youth program, and adding the following to the budget
narrative:
•

A $150,000 appropriation is included to continue funding of the Safe
Alternatives for Youth (SAY) program in 2008. This program was initially
established with a $150,000 appropriation in the 2003 County Budget to
provide community-based services to young people living in low-income
areas of Milwaukee County who were exposed to barriers that placed
them at risk in their community. Since 2003, under the direction of the
SAY Oversight Committee and the administration of the Milwaukee Urban
League as fiscal agent, SAY has distributed more than 80 small grants for

one-time educational, cultural, recreational and other activities, which
have enhanced life experiences of disadvantaged youth and have
positively impacted 3,000 youth.
In 2008, the SAY program will continue to operate under the provisions of
Adopted County Board Resolution File No. 03-247, which established the
Safe Homes (subsequently re-named Safe Alternatives for Youth)
Oversight Committee.
Consistent with the terms of the Adopted
Resolution, the SAY Oversight Committee, appointed by the County Board
Chairman, will continue to oversee the program and direct the distribution
of small SAY grants, and the Milwaukee Urban League will continue to
serve as SAY fiscal agent. The Director of the Department of Health and
Human Services shall execute a contract in the amount of $12,000 with
the Milwaukee Urban League for fiscal agent services, including serving as
depository for the funds to be allocated, distributing the funds as directed
by the SAY Oversight Committee, preparing and distributing tax forms for
grantees, and providing quarterly reports on the distribution of funds and
remaining balances to the SAY Oversight Committee. In addition, the
Director of the Department of Health and Human Services is authorized to
deposit $138,000 in SAY appropriations with the Milwaukee Urban League
as fiscal agent, from which identified activities under the program will be
funded.

for advance ordering of the Zoo’s 2008 and 2009 resale purchases for
novelties and souvenirs in October of 2007 and October of 2008,

appropriation for resale novelties and souvenirs. A substantial portion of
resale merchandise sold at the Milwaukee County Zoo is purchased from
import vendors to provide the quantity and variety of items desired by the
general public visiting the Zoo. Due to the distance and travel time
required for overseas shipments, the Zoo must order resale merchandise
in the fall for spring delivery. Precedent exists in past County Board
authorization for the Zoo to purchase resale items for the upcoming year.

• In order to redirect property tax levy funds to higher priority core
County functions, the 2008 budget terminates the contract with the
Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin system effective
for 2008. According to language in the UW Extension sub-lease of
the Roosevelt School, $37,500 is budgeted for rent and related
lease expenses for the first four months of 2008.
2. Denying the abolishment of a Clerical Assistant 2 (NR) position by

3. The abatement of countywide crosscharges is discontinued in 2008.
The tax levy previously in the servicing department is redistributed to
the recipient departments in an amount corresponding to the

change in abatements. Due primarily to this change in methodology,
there is no increase or decrease in direct tax levy for this department
decreased $172,533.
The actual change in tax levy for this
department from 2007 is a decrease of $184,480 $11,947.

The Mary Ryan Boys and Girls Club of Greater Milwaukee has embarked on

involved in youth development programming, especially for teens. This
initiative requires the remodeling of the Mary Ryan Boys and Girls Club
building, which is located in Sherman Park and owned by Milwaukee County.
The Mary Ryan Club secured $40,000 in 2008 Community Development Block

Currently, park workers must regularly clean out the water lines and sprinkler
heads to remove the corrosion so that sprinklers can work properly. This

at $5,137,356, which includes a County commitment of $400,000. The County
commitment could include funds from donations, grants or $100,000 from the
City of Milwaukee’s tax incremental finance district that includes Johnsons
Park.
The Parks Department, in consultation with the Department of Administrative
Services, will work with Johnsons Park LLC to determine the best use of the

The Marcus Center has increased its use of the ballroom and is looking at

partition system needs replacement. The track, turntables and walls have
outlived their useful life. Repairs are increasing and acoustics are a problem.
New partition systems are lighter, less moving parts and acoustically superior
to the original ones. Separate “quiet” rooms within the ballroom will give the
Marcus Center greater flexibility in using this space and attracting clients for
multiple meeting and banquet space.

You asked the following questions: How much did the pension contribution go up
in the budget? How much would it have gone up if we did not use POBs?
If I understand the question correctly, the change from the budgeted pension
contribution amount in 2007 to 2008 is $10,491,429. The 2008 pension
contribution per the actuary is $49,707,000, which is a budgeted increase of
$442,000 from 2007 to 2008.

Re: Transit Veto Consideration

Chad, this is very helpful and I appreciate the time you put into it. While it
currently stands that he does not want to veto any of the transit changes,
given what his alternatives are, we may well have to come back to Transit for
some veto savings. If that is the case, the below is useful. With regard to
your comment about mixed rationale, I think we would still be ok if we used
ridership and cost per ride to justify segment eliminations even though we did
not use this rationale with the restorations. If and when we get to this
point, we will talk more. Sit tight for now.
PS -- what do you know about the zone fare wars with Waukesha? You might want

Cindy,
You mentioned it worth examining the latter Transit route amendments (i.e., the
route add-backs subsequent to the larger $1.9M in route restorations) to
determine if it makes sense to veto some of these add-backs after exhausting
other veto options.

CArcher_Email3016473

In terms of impacting the least number of daily riders, we’d logically focus on
Routes 40 & 49. Route 49 is also one of the least cost effective routes, as it
has a higher marginal cost to the County per ride.
The downside of applying this logic for route vetoes is we are open to further
criticism since the CEX route restorations in the Recommended Budget did not
universally incorporate this rationale. There are a number of routes we
restored in the CEX Recommendation with low daily rider impacts and higher
marginal costs per ride.
Below represents the individual route restorations you were interested in.

Let me know if you’d like to discuss further.

The state and federal government needs to be held accountable. It is time to
stand up.
In closing, there has been much discussion about how the levy impact on the
average taxpayer of the Board adopted budget will be minimal. This I believe
is a disingenous argurement. The average taxpayer faces escalating costs
(heating, etc), state tax increases, MPS increased, city increases -- I will
not be responsible for adding to this burden.

determine if it makes sense to veto some of these add-backs after exhausting
other veto options.
In terms of impacting the least number of daily riders, we’d logically focus on
Routes 40 & 49. Route 49 is also one of the least cost effective routes, as it
has a higher marginal cost to the County per ride.
The downside of applying this logic for route vetoes is we are open to further
criticism since the CEX route restorations in the Recommended Budget did not
universally incorporate this rationale. There are a number of routes we
restored in the CEX Recommendation with low daily rider impacts and higher
marginal costs per ride.
Below represents the individual route restorations you were interested in.

Let me know if you’d like to discuss further.

25-cent bus zone fares may return
Milwaukee riders would face extra inter-county charge
By SCOTT WILLIAMS
[email protected]
Posted: Oct. 8, 2007
Brookfield - Riding the bus to Brookfield Square soon could cost Milwaukee County residents 25 cents
more.
Waukesha County is considering reinstituting a "zone fare" that was eliminated four years ago but now is
needed to generate extra revenue for the county bus system.
If the Waukesha County Board approves, riders from Milwaukee County will see their one-way fare climb
from $1.75 to $2 effective Jan. 1.
Milwaukee County is considering its own 25-cent fare increase, so those riders could actually find
themselves paying an extra 50 cents.
For commuters using the bus round-trip every day, the fare increases would amount to an extra $20 a
month. "It's ridiculous," said Diana Perkins of Milwaukee, who rides the bus every day to attend classes at
High-Tech Institute in Brookfield.
Another Milwaukee resident, Eddie Rogers, said he, too, objects to paying more for a bus that helps him
get to work in New Berlin.
Rogers especially does not like the idea of Milwaukee County riders paying more than others.
"They're taking advantage of the system," he said.
Operated by the Milwaukee County Transit System, the route begins at Bayshore Town Center in Glendale
and extends into Waukesha County under an inter-county contract. Although the service across county lines
is relatively seamless - in some cases allowing riders to connect with still other routes - Waukesha County
sets its own fares and service levels.
Citing pressure to control property taxes for mass transit and other government services, Waukesha County
officials said they decided to seek a fare increase rather than cut services.
"We need additional revenue to keep everything running," said Richard Bolte, county public works
director.
650 riders a day
The Brookfield Square route serves 20,000 riders a month, or roughly 650 a day.
In another budget move under review, Waukesha County has proposed eliminating a bus route that
connects Milwaukee residents with workplaces in Menomonee Falls and nearby communities. Milwaukee
Mayor Tom Barrett has warned that cutting that bus route would cut off Milwaukee residents from good
employment opportunities.
The suburban mass transit network is managed by Waukesha Metro Transit, a city agency contracted by the
county.
'Universally hated'
Metro Transit director Bob Johnson said the 25-cent surcharge for Milwaukee County residents on the
Brookfield Square route was dropped in 2003 because riders resented paying it, and drivers complained
that the arrangement was too complicated.
"It was universally hated," Johnson said.
The recommendation to reinstate the fee is included in Waukesha County Executive Dan Vrakas' budget
proposal for 2008. The County Board is expected to vote on a budget package by November.
Johnson said ridership could suffer from the fare increase. When the surcharge was eliminated in 2003,
ridership on the route increased about 10%, he said.
With gasoline prices at nearly $3 a gallon, however, Johnson said he doubts that many regular riders would
stop using the bus over an extra 25 cents.
"There may be a few that stop riding," he said, "but I don't think it will have a major impact."

Can you talk to analysts and give me some examples of where federal funding has
decreased in recent years? I don't need $ amounts, just examples. Thanks.

I took a stab at this. It is very, very rough with no numbers or anything
filled in. It is for discussion purposes only and meant to as a check on the
overall theme or message the CEX wants to send with his message. We can talk
about at 2:00

PS -- I am a little afraid to send this because it is so very rough and
because Rob has not toned it down (as I suspect he will want to). :)

DRAFT/

I have completed my review of the 2008 budget provisions adopted by the County Board
and have exercised my veto authority as noted below.
The budget as passed maintained most of the provisions included in the budget I
submitted to you in October. Specifically, as adopted, the Board maintained the key
elements of my public safety initiative including full support for the Sheriff’s Targeted
Enforcement, Drug Enforcement and Expressway Patrol units, additional funding for law
enforcement equipment and Airport security, better monitoring of Huber inmates through
the use of global positioning satellite (GPS) equipment, increased funding for Firearm
Offender Supervision program and increased funding for the County’s Emergency
Medical Services system. The adopted budget also maintained my recommendations
related to key human services initiatives specifically increased funding of more than $1.7
million for the Behavioral Health Division to address patient and staff safety concerns
caused by increased patient volume and the increased acuity of patients being served at
the mental health complex and my supportive housing initiative that will provide an
additional $1million for the construction of housing for individuals with mental illness.
These efforts combined with the creation of a new housing division in the Department of
Health and Human Services and continued support for the Supportive Housing
Development Committee provides the County with a solid foundation upon which to
build as we continue to address the housing needs of our most vulnerable citizens.
In addition to the above, I am pleased the Board adopted the vast majority of my capital
investment recommendations totaling over $_____. As I indicated when I submitted the
budget, these capital investments are critical to maintaining and improving our
recreational assets, our roads and parkways and our world-class Airport.
Finally, I am pleased with the provisions in the budget dealing with mass transit. When
preparing the budget, the uncertainty of the State Budget presented many challenges
particularly in the area of mass transit funding, funding of the State Court System,
juvenile corrections and shared revenue. Without question, working without a State
required some assumptions as we crafted the 2008 County budget over the summer. Our
assumptions overall erred on the conservative side and for the most past assumed state
revenue at levels that appeared to have bipartisan support during the State budget
deliberations. While ultimately the State Budget as passed by the Legislature and signed
by the Governor included a number of disappointments, at least, Milwaukee County
received a pleasant bit of news when the final State Budget included approximately $3.2
million in transit aid. This combined with the additional $4.0 million in tax levy included
in my recommended budget will retain most of the service reductions proposed by MTS
to meet a projected $10 million deficit in the mass transit budget. My vetoes retain the
added service areas made possible by the additional state revenue.
While the transit funding from Madison was welcome news, Milwaukee County and
counties in general did not fare well in the final adopted State Budget. State costs for

CArcher_Email3016489

operating the state juvenile correctional institutions will increase by over _____% in 2008
bringing the cost of housing a juvenile in a state facility almost $100,000 per year. Under
the provisions of the State Budget, Milwaukee County taxpayers will have to pick up
more than a $1.0 million per year due to the cost increases included in the State Budget.
Further, increased costs in the State Court System of over $2.0 million will shift to the
local property taxpayer as a result of the adopted State Budget. Property taxpayers of
Milwaukee County cannot be expected to fill the funding gaps resulting from the State
Budget. I will not excuse the excessive spending in Madison by simply passing it onto
Milwaukee County taxpayers. I have therefore, exercised my veto authority to correct
the Courts budget to reflect the unwillingness of the State to adequately fund the state
Court system. My veto removes the $2.0 million in anticipated state revenue that did not
materialize in the final State Budget and reduces the expenditures of the Courts by a
corresponding amount. So that these costs do not fall to the local property taxpayer, I
have vetoed the $2.0 million of property tax levy set-aside in the County contingency
fund that was intended to backfill for the hole created by the State. I encourage the Chief
Justice to work with the Governor, the State Legislature and the State Court system to
develop a plan for making the operational adjustments that will be required in the absence
of additional state support.
Similar to the failure of State government to fulfill its responsibilities, we are seeing an
increasing trend by the federal government to pass the buck and pass the burden onto to
local governments. As a result of the Federal Deficit Reduction Act, Milwaukee County
will lose over $_____ in federal funding for Child Support Enforcement. Similarly,
funding from the federal government for _______________ and _____________ has
declined in recent years putting more and more pressure on local governments to fill the
gaps. I will not support backfilling for lost federal revenue by increasing local property
taxes. Consequently, two of the vetoes noted below are intended to reverse Board action
intended to do just that. Specifically, I have vetoed additional staff and property tax levy
for the Department of Child Support Enforcement in the amount of $_____. Further, I
have exercised my veto authority to veto additional property tax levy to backfill for the
loss in federal grant funding for the Access to Recovery program in the amount of
$______.
Like the State and Federal Government, County government also faces fiscal pressures
related to the cost of doing business. However, unlike the state and federal government, I
will not turn first to the taxpayer to balance the County’s budget. We have collectively
made great progress in controlling County government costs, particularly in the area of
heath care and employee pension costs. We have served our citizens well by the tough
choices we have made and the creative solutions we have pursued to control our costs.
Like the average family in Milwaukee County that also faces increased household costs
related to health care, fuel, day care, ____, _____ but must struggle live within the family
budget, we must also continue to find creative ways to manage County government
responsibly and efficiently within the resources available to us. Passing the buck and the
burden to the taxpayer is not the answer.

CArcher_Email3016490

With this in mind, I am disappointed that similar to the 2007 budget, the Board has
rejected outright creative solutions I have recommended to streamline county government
operations and reduce costs while maintaining and in some cases improving County
services. Of particular note in the 2008 budget is the Board’s outright rejection of the
staffing proposal for the Parks Department that would have increased staff time for the
maintenance of the parks by over 20,000 hours per year while reducing County costs my
more than $_______. The debate by the Board over this provision appeared to center
more around preserving county jobs rather than protecting County taxpayers and
improving the Park’s system. As noted below, I have used my veto authority to restore as
close as possible the original proposal I submitted to you. I continue to believe, through
the use of more efficient equipment and a flexible workforce the Parks department can
not only maintain the beauty of our Parks system, but can improve maintenance by
scheduling staff resources during the times of the year when most needed. I am urging
the Board to reexamine this proposal with an open mind.
Below are the specific vetoes I am returning to you for consideration. Sustaining the
vetoes below will result in maintaining the property tax levy at the 2007 level of
$______. While there has been discussion on the Board floor and in the press regarding
the marginal impact of a ____% increase in the County property tax that would result
from the adopted County budget, I urge you to keep in mind that the average family is
already operating at the margin.

County will lose approximatey $8.0 million in federal funding during 2008 for Child

increasing pressure is placed on local governments to fill the gap. To be clear, I will not

despite the increasing costs of health care, fuel, child care and other necessities, I believe
the County should do the same. We must continue to find creative ways to manage
County government responsibly and efficiently within the resources available to us.
Passing burden to the taxpayer is not the answer.

3.7% increase in the County tax levy, I believe that the average family is already
overburdened by increasing costs and County government should not add to this burden.

DRAFT/

I have completed my review of the 2008 budget provisions adopted by the County Board
and have exercised my veto authority as noted below.
The budget as passed maintained most of the provisions included in the budget I
submitted to you in October. Specifically, as adopted, the Board maintained key public
safety provisions contained in my Recommended Budget, including full support for the
Sheriff’s Targeted Enforcement, Drug Enforcement and Expressway Patrol units,
additional funding for law enforcement equipment and Airport security, better monitoring
of Huber inmates through the use of Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) equipment,
increased funding for the Firearm Offender Supervision program and increased funding
for the County’s Emergency Medical Services system. In regard to the GPS initiative, I
welcome and support the County Board’s recommendation to engage the Community
Justice Council Steering Committee and to retain additional Correction Officer positions
in order to phase in the initiative.
The adopted budget also maintained my recommendations related to key human services
initiatives, including increased funding of more than $1.7 million for the Behavioral
Health Division to address patient and staff safety concerns caused by increased patient
volume and the increased acuity of patients being served at the mental health complex.
The Board also approved my supportive housing initiative that will provide an additional
$1 million for the construction of housing for individuals with mental illness. These
efforts, combined with the creation of a new Housing Division in the Department of
Health and Human Services and continued support for the recommendations of the
Special Needs Housing Action Team, provide for meaningful, long-range action to
address the housing needs of our most vulnerable citizens.
Finally, I am pleased with the provisions in the budget dealing with mass transit. When
preparing the budget, the uncertainty of the State Budget presented many challenges,
particularly in the area of mass transit, the State Court System, juvenile corrections and
shared revenue. Without question, working without a State Budget required some
assumptions as we crafted the 2008 County budget over the summer. Overall, we
attempted to take a conservative approach. While ultimately the final State Budget
included a number of disappointments, the net impact to Milwaukee County was only
about $700,000 off from our overall revenue projections. A key factor was an
unbudgeted increase of approximately $3.2 million in additional transit aid in the final
State Budget. This, combined with the additional $4.0 million in tax levy included in my
recommended budget, will restore most of the service reductions proposed by MCTS to
meet the projected $10 million deficit in the mass transit budget. My vetoes retain the
added bus route service areas that were made possible by the additional state revenue.
In addition to the above, I am pleased the Board adopted the vast majority of my capital
investment recommendations totaling over $_____. As I indicated when I submitted the

CArcher_Email3016503

budget, these capital investments are critical to maintaining and improving our
recreational assets, our roads and parkways and our world-class Airport.
While the transit funding from Madison was welcome news, Milwaukee County and
counties in general did not fare well in the final adopted State Budget. State costs for
operating the state juvenile correctional institutions will increase by more than _____% in
2008, bringing the cost of housing a juvenile in a state facility to almost $100,000 per
year. Because the Youth Aids increase provided in the State Budget does not fully offset
this added cost, Milwaukee County property taxpayers will have to pay more than $2.0
million more for this State-mandated function in 2008 (this number needs to be doublechecked). Further, increased costs in the State Court System of over $2.0 million will
shift to the local property taxpayer as a result of the adopted State Budget.
Property taxpayers of Milwaukee County cannot be expected to fill the funding gaps
resulting from the State Budget. I will not excuse the excessive spending in Madison by
simply passing it onto Milwaukee County taxpayers. I have therefore exercised my veto
authority to correct the Courts budget to reflect the unwillingness of the State to
adequately fund the State Court system. My veto removes the $2.0 million in anticipated
state revenue that did not materialize in the final State Budget and adjusts the
expenditures of the Courts by a corresponding amount. So that these costs do not fall to
the local property taxpayer, I have vetoed $2.0 million of additional property tax levy
provided by the County Board in the County contingency fund that was intended to fill
the revenue gap created by the State. I also extend to the Chief Judge and County Board
Chairman an invitation to continue working with me to convince the Governor and the
State Legislature to fulfill their responsibility to adequately fund the State Courts, and my
administration also stands ready to assist the Chief Judge in developing a plan for making
the operational adjustments that will be required in the absence of additional state
support.
Similar to the failure of State government to fulfill its fiscal responsibilities, we are
seeing an increasing trend by the Federal government to pass the financial burden onto to
local governments. As a result of the Federal Deficit Reduction Act, Milwaukee County
will lose approximately $8.0 million in federal funding during 2008 for Child Support
Enforcement. As the Federal Government backs away from its responsibilities,
increasing pressure is placed on local governments to fill the gap. To be clear, I will not
use property tax levy to replace lost Federal funding. Consequently, I have vetoed
additional staff and property tax levy for the Department of Child Support Enforcement
in the amount of $_____. Further, I have exercised my veto authority to eliminate the use
of property tax levy to replace for the loss in Federal Access to Recovery grant funding in
the amount $600,000.
Like the State and Federal governments, County government also faces fiscal pressures
related to the cost of doing business. However, unlike the State and Federal
governments, I will not turn first to the taxpayer to balance the County’s budget.
Collectively, we have made great progress in controlling County government costs,
particularly in the area of employee heath care and pension costs. We have served our

CArcher_Email3016504

citizens well by making tough choices and pursuing creative solutions to control our
costs. Like the average family in Milwaukee County who must live within a budget
despite the increasing costs of health care, fuel, child care and other necessities, I believe
the County should do the same. We must continue to find creative ways to manage
County government responsibly and efficiently with the resources available to us.
Passing burden to the taxpayer is not the answer.
With this in mind, I am disappointed that the Board continues to reject creative solutions
I have recommended to streamline county government operations and reduce costs while
maintaining and in some cases improving County services. Of particular note is the
Board’s outright rejection of the staffing proposal for the Parks Department that would
have increased staff time for the maintenance of the parks by over 20,000 hours per year
while reducing County costs by more than $_______. The debate by the Board over this
provision focused primarily on preserving County jobs, rather than protecting County
taxpayers and improving the Parks system. As noted below, I have used my veto
authority to restore the original proposal I submitted to you. I continue to believe,
through the use of more efficient equipment and a flexible workforce, the Parks
department cannot only maintain the beauty of our Parks system, but can improve
maintenance by scheduling staff resources during the times of the year when most
needed. I am urging the Board to reexamine this proposal with an open mind.
Below are the specific vetoes I am returning to you for consideration. Sustaining the
vetoes below will result in maintaining the property tax levy at the 2007 level of
$______. I believe that the average family is already overburdened by increasing costs
and County government should not add to this burden. As noted below, through the use
of my veto authority, I am returning the 2008 Budget to the County Board with a tax levy
equal to the 2007 levy of $_______.
I have exercised my veto authority as follows:
Veto #1: County Board Salary Increases

Veto #3 Earmark for Economic and Community Development Reserve Fund
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$1,000,000]
Amendment _______
This amendment modifies the Land Sales budget to reflect the aniticapted sale of the
County Grounds Northeast Quadrant for UW-Milwaukee and allocates $1.0 million of
land sale revenue and expenditure authority to the Capital Improvements budget for
project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the proposed sale of the County Grounds
Northeast Quadrant, retain $1.0 million of revenue in the Land Sales budget, but
eliminate the reallocation of $1.0 million in land sale revenue to the Capital Improvement
project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund. My partial veto also removes the authorized
expenditure of $1.0 million for the Inclusive Housing Fund resulting in a levy savings of
$1,000,000.
The budget I presented and ultimately adopted by the Board includes $1 million for the
construction of housing for individuals with mental illness, the creation of a new Housing
Division in the Department of Health and Human Services and additional resources to
begin implementation of the recommendations of the Special Needs Housing Action
Team for long-range action to address the housing needs of our most vulnerable citizens.
I have vetoed the allocation of additional resources to the Inclusive Housing Fund
because I believe such action is premature. Rob, can you assist with this…my thinking is
we need to allow the new division to develop a strategic plan lays out a vision for
addressing these housing needs in a coordinated fashion not supportive housing vs
inclusive housing – there seems to be a lot of confusion over these two initiatives. Also, I
don’t know if the work of the Special Needs Housing action team is ongoing but should
we say something about that? Can you help with the rationale on this? I could do it, but
time is running short..

veto question
Friday, November 09, 2007 1:17:55 PM

The Board allocated $50,000 to the Community and Economic Development Reserve
Fund. We have it as veto.
I gave Dennik a call to see how useful he felt this fund was, etc as I was
writing the rationale for the veto. Bob was disappointed to hear we were going
to veto the allocation. He said he could live with it but indicated that the
fund has been very useful to him since he can tap into to cover project
expenses. He said it would be useful for projects such as UWM to cover some
project expenses. He said Mayo has been pretty good about letting him use the
fund as he sees fit and that it has been beneficial.
As we stand now, we do not need this $50k to balance the budget. Based on my
conversation with Bob, do you want to reconsider veto of this item?

The Board also approved my supportive housing initiative that will provide an additional

efforts, combined with the creation of a new Housing Division in the Department of

Finally, I am pleased with the provisions in the budget dealing with mass transit. When

particularly in the area of mass transit, the State Court System, juvenile corrections and
shared revenue. Without question, working without a State Budget required some

investment recommendations totaling over $_____. As I indicated when I submitted the

CArcher_Email3016512

budget, these capital investments are critical to maintaining and improving our
recreational assets, our roads and parkways and our world-class Airport.
While the transit funding from Madison was welcome news, Milwaukee County and
counties in general did not fare well in the final adopted State Budget. State costs for
operating the state juvenile correctional institutions will increase by more than _____% in
2008, bringing the cost of housing a juvenile in a state facility to almost $100,000 per
year. Because the Youth Aids increase provided in the State Budget does not fully offset
this added cost, Milwaukee County property taxpayers will have to pay more than $2.0
million more for this State-mandated function in 2008 (this number needs to be doublechecked). Further, increased costs in the State Court System of over $2.0 million will
shift to the local property taxpayer as a result of the adopted State Budget.
Property taxpayers of Milwaukee County cannot be expected to fill the funding gaps
resulting from the State Budget. I will not excuse the excessive spending in Madison by

State Legislature to fulfill their responsibility to adequately fund the State Courts, and my
administration also stands ready to assist the Chief Judge in developing a plan for making
the operational adjustments that will be required in the absence of additional state
support.
Similar to the failure of State government to fulfill its fiscal responsibilities, we are
seeing an increasing trend by the Federal government to pass the financial burden onto to
local governments. As a result of the Federal Deficit Reduction Act, Milwaukee County
will lose approximately $8.0 million in federal funding during 2008 for Child Support
Enforcement. As the Federal Government backs away from its responsibilities,
increasing pressure is placed on local governments to fill the gap. To be clear, I will not
use property tax levy to replace lost Federal funding. Consequently, I have vetoed
additional staff and property tax levy for the Department of Child Support Enforcement
in the amount of $_____. Further, I have exercised my veto authority to eliminate the use
of property tax levy to replace for the loss in Federal Access to Recovery grant funding in
the amount $600,000.
Like the State and Federal governments, County government also faces fiscal pressures
related to the cost of doing business. However, unlike the State and Federal
governments, I will not turn first to the taxpayer to balance the County’s budget.
Collectively, we have made great progress in controlling County government costs,
particularly in the area of employee heath care and pension costs. We have served our

Passing burden to the taxpayer is not the answer.
With this in mind, I am disappointed that the Board continues to reject creative solutions
I have recommended to streamline county government operations and reduce costs while
maintaining and in some cases improving County services. Of particular note is the
Board’s outright rejection of the staffing proposal for the Parks Department that would
have increased staff time for the maintenance of the parks by over 20,000 hours per year
while reducing County costs by more than $_______. The debate by the Board over this
provision focused primarily on preserving County jobs, rather than protecting County
taxpayers and improving the Parks system. As noted below, I have used my veto
authority to restore the original proposal I submitted to you. I continue to believe,
through the use of more efficient equipment and a flexible workforce, the Parks
department cannot only maintain the beauty of our Parks system, but can improve
maintenance by scheduling staff resources during the times of the year when most
needed. I am urging the Board to reexamine this proposal with an open mind.
Below are the specific vetoes I am returning to you for consideration. Sustaining the
vetoes below will result in maintaining the property tax levy at the 2007 level of
$______. I believe that the average family is already overburdened by increasing costs
and County government should not add to this burden. As noted below, through the use
of my veto authority, I am returning the 2008 Budget to the County Board with a tax levy
equal to the 2007 levy of $_______.
I have exercised my veto authority as follows:
Veto #1 County Board Salary Increases
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A 077
Amended Section 17.99 General Ordinances of Milwaukee County relating to the salaries
of the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors and the County Executive
This amendment increased personal service expenditures by $29,851 and reduced
services by the same amount in the County Board Office and authorizes an increase in
Milwaukee County Supervisor’s salaries of 4% effective April 1, 2008 to remain at that
level for the duration of the 2008-2012 term.
I have partially vetoed this provision and entirely vetoed the modifications to Ordinance
_____ to leave in tact funding the County Board Office budget, but to remove the
authorization for the increased pay for County Board Supervisors.

CArcher_Email3016514

I have vetoed this provision because I believe the current salary structure for Board
Supervisors is appropriate. Moreover, I do not believe this provisions should have been
included within the budget, but more appropriately should have been advanced through
the Personnel Committee to ensure full public debate of this policy and fiscal matter.
Veto #2 Workforce Development Reform Task Force
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$125,000]
Amendment1A 072
This amendment authorizes the creation of a taskforce to make recommendations in order
to provide more focus and equitable employment funding in work reform for men,
particularly fathers and males of color and provides an appropriation of $125,000 to
retain outside consultant assistance.
While I support the creation of the task force and look forward to working with the
County Board Chairman on this initiative, I have partially vetoed this provision to
eliminate the funding for an outside consultant. My partial veto retains the authorization
and creation of the task force as outlined in the amendment but eliminates the $125,000
in funding for consultant services because I believe there are sufficient existing county
resources to support this effort.
Veto #3 Earmark for Economic and Community Development Reserve Fund
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$50,000]
Amendment 1C008 &1A050
This amendment reduces expenditures for Medicare Reimbursement to Retired
Employees by $550,000 based on updated estimates and allocates $500,000 of the levy
savings to the appropriation for contingencies and $50,000 of the savings to the
Economic and Community Development Reserve Fund for a net levy impact of $0.
I have partially vetoed this provision to eliminate the allocation of $50,000 levy to the
Economic and Community Development Reserve Fund. My veto retains the allocation of
$500,000 to the appropriation for contingencies.
I have vetoed the allocation of additional funds to the Economic and Community
Development Reserve Fund because [is there a balance in this fund? Has the use of the
fund demonstrated results? Or should veto be to reduce property taxes?
Veto #4 Land Sales and Inclusive Housing Fund
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$1,000,000]
Amendment 1B022 & 1CO14
This amendment modifies the Land Sales budget to reflect the potential sale of the
County Grounds Northeast Quadrant to UW-Milwaukee and allocates $1.0 million of
land sale revenue and expenditure authority to the Capital Improvements budget for
project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund.

CArcher_Email3016515

I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the listing of the sale of the County
Grounds Northeast Quadrant as a potential land sale in 2008, retain $1.0 million of
revenue in the Land Sales budget, but eliminate the reallocation of $1.0 million in land
sale revenue to the Capital Improvement project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund. My
partial veto also removes the authorized expenditure of $1.0 million for the Inclusive
Housing Fund resulting in a levy savings of $1.0 million.
I am concerned about the addition of $1.0 million to the Land Sales budget based on the
sale of the Northeast Quadrant. My concern is not over whether this sale should take
place, as I am very excited about the plans for a UWM School of Engineering on the
County Grounds, and I strongly believe that the sale of this parcel for that purpose is the
right move for the citizens of Milwaukee County. Instead, my concern is whether this
sale can be consummated by the end of 2008. Because one of the biggest obstacles to an
expeditious sale is potential delay by the County Board, the Board’s insertion of this
provision into the Budget allows me to feel more comfortable in retaining this provision.
I would remind Supervisors, however, that they have a responsibility to join me in
aggressively moving this project forward so that we can indeed realize this revenue in
2008.
I am vetoing the provision allocating $1.0 million from the Land Sales budget to the
Capital Improvements budget for project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund. The budget I
presented and ultimately adopted by the Board already includes $1.0 million for the
construction of housing for individuals with mental illness under the auspices of the new
Housing Division in the Department of Health and Human Services. Unlike the Inclusive
Housing Fund, this fund for special needs housing is governed by clear criteria proposed
by my administration and adopted by the County Board, and it is strategically designed to
address significant programmatic concerns in the Behavioral Health Division, including
overcrowding in its acute inpatient units and Psychiatric Crisis Service. Conversely, the
specific purpose of the Inclusive Housing Fund has never been defined and it has not
been determined how this fund is consistent with the core mission and strategic
objectives of Milwaukee County. In light of the recognized need for additional
affordable housing in Milwaukee County, my Recommended Budget did propose
allocating surplus land sales revenue to the Inclusive Housing Fund so that we could
develop a plan for the use of these funds and utilize them if they materialized due to a
surplus. However, in light of our fiscal constraints and the appropriation of $1.0 million
for special needs housing, I cannot justify dedicating an additional $1.0 million of direct
property tax levy for this purpose.

Veto #5: Courts Staffing
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]
Amendment _______
The Courts budget I presented to the Board recommended the abolishment of 4.0 FTE
vacant Clerical Assistant 1 positions (two of which were also unfunded in 2007), the

CArcher_Email3016516

abolishment of 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants and the
abolishment of 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns. This amendment restores and provides
funding for two of the four Clerical Assistant 1 positions, the 2.0 FTE Deputy Court
Clerk Judicial Assistants and the 9.0 Legal Research Interns. Under the amendment, 2.0
FTE Clerical Assistant 1 positions would remain but would be unfunded in 2008.
Finally, this amendment reduces the proposed lump sum salary adjustment for the Courts
by increasing funding for personal services by $167,396.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the authorization and full funding of the 9.0
FTE Legal Research Interns ($411,978) and to retain the authorization for the 2.0 FTE
Clerical Assistant 1 unfunded positions in the Register in Probate Division as approved
by the Board. However, my partial veto restores the abolishment and eliminates the
funding for the 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants and 2.0 FTE
Clerical Assistant 1 positions for a levy savings of $______. Further, by writing down
the reduction in the lump sum salary adjustment to $1, my partial veto will provide a net
salary reduction of $1,400,790 and a levy savings of $167,395.
I have retained the 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns because of the Chief Judge’s
expressed concern about the impact of such a reduction on the operations of the Courts.
However, I continue to believe that abolishing 4.0 FTE vacant support positions will not
jeopardize the operations of the Courts and that the lump sum reduction proposed in my
original budget recommendations is manageable.

Veto #6: State Funding for Courts System
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$2,000,000]
Amendment 1C009
As noted above, the final State Budget did not include approximately $2.0 million in
additional State aid for the administration of the State Court System in Milwaukee
County as anticipated when the 2008 Recommended Budget was developed. The County
budget as adopted by the Board, did not adjust the projected state aid for the Courts as
reflected in final provisions of the State Budget. As a result, as adopted, the Courts
budget includes approximately $2.0 million in State revenue that will not materialize in
2008. However, the County Board under Amendment 1C009 appropriated an additional
$3.0 million to the appropriation for contingencies to “help partially mitigate State
revenues that were not realized upon passage of the 2007-09 State Budget in late October
2007.”
I am partially vetoing the provision related to the Appropriation for Contigencies
(Amendment 1C009) to reduce by $2,000,000 the increase of $3,000,000 provided by the
Board. Further, I am partially vetoing the budget to reduce the budgeted revenues for the
Courts by $2,000,000 and reduce authorized expenditures for the Courts by $2,000,000.
I am using my veto authority to adjust the Combined Court Related Operations budget to
reflect the realities of the final State Budget. As stated above, I do not believe the failure

CArcher_Email3016517

of the State to adequately fund the State Court System should result in shifting these costs
to Milwaukee County taxpayers. By reducing the increase to the contingency fund
adopted by the Board by $2.0 million, I have prevented the shifting of these cost to the
tax levy. The fiscal impact of this veto is a reduction in tax levy of $2.0 million, a
reduction is state aid to the Courts of $2.0 million and a corresponding reduction in Court
expenditures by $2.0 million.
Veto # 7: Child Support Enforcement Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]
Amendment 1A014
This amendment restores funding for 1.0 FTE Child Support Coordinator, 2.5 FTE Legal
Counsel Child Support 1 positions and 3.0 FTE Paralegal positions in the Department of
Child Support Enforcement.
I have vetoed this provision in its entirety because I will not support the use of property
tax levy to replace lost federal funding.
Veto #8: County Clerk Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$84,714]
Amendment 1A016
This amendment provides $84,714 in tax levy and restores the Deputy County Clerk
position in the County Clerk’s Office.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of Deputy County Clerk.
However, I have vetoed the additional property tax levy provided to the County Clerk’s
Office through this amendment for a levy savings of $84,714.

Veto #9 Register of Deeds Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$198,694]
Amendment 1A041
This amendment denies the abolishment of three positions, including one position each of
Deputy Register of Deeds, Clerical Assistant 1 and Office Support Assistant 2 the cost of
which is completing offset by increased real estate fee revenue.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of the Deputy Register of
Deeds, abolish the Clerical Assistant 1 position, abolish the Office Support Assistant 2
position and reduce the expenditures of the Register of Deeds by $198,694 for a levy
savings of $198,694.

Veto #10: Farm and Fish Hatchery
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]

CArcher_Email3016518

Amendment 1A012
The budget I presented to the Board included the closure of the House of Correction
Farm and Fish Hatchery for a levy savings of $256,384. I have consistently proposed the
closure of the Farm and Fish Hatcher because its operation is not a core county function
and because it diverts valuable resources away from activities supporting staff and inmate
safety at the House of Correction. The above referenced amendment restores the
operation of the Farm and Fish Hatchery.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to restore my intent to close the Farm and Fish
Hatchery in 2008.

DRAFT/

I have completed my review of the 2008 budget provisions adopted by the County Board
and have exercised my veto authority as noted below.
The budget as passed maintained most of the provisions included in the budget I
submitted to you in October. Specifically, as adopted, the Board maintained key public
safety provisions contained in my Recommended Budget, including full support for the
Sheriff’s Targeted Enforcement, Drug Enforcement and Expressway Patrol units,
additional funding for law enforcement equipment and Airport security, better monitoring
of Huber inmates through the use of Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) equipment,
increased funding for the Firearm Offender Supervision program and increased funding
for the County’s Emergency Medical Services system. In regard to the GPS initiative, I
welcome and support the County Board’s recommendation to engage the Community
Justice Council Steering Committee and to retain additional Correction Officer positions
in order to phase in the initiative.
The adopted budget also maintained my recommendations related to key human services
initiatives, including increased funding of more than $1.7 million for the Behavioral
Health Division to address patient and staff safety concerns caused by increased patient
volume and the increased acuity of patients being served at the mental health complex.
The Board also approved my supportive housing initiative that will provide an additional
$1 million for the construction of housing for individuals with mental illness. These
efforts, combined with the creation of a new Housing Division in the Department of
Health and Human Services and continued support for the recommendations of the
Special Needs Housing Action Team, provide for meaningful, long-range action to
address the housing needs of our most vulnerable citizens.
Finally, I am pleased with the provisions in the budget dealing with mass transit. When
preparing the budget, the uncertainty of the State Budget presented many challenges,
particularly in the area of mass transit, the State Court System, juvenile corrections and
shared revenue. Without question, working without a State Budget required some
assumptions as we crafted the 2008 County budget over the summer. Overall, we
attempted to take a conservative approach. While ultimately the final State Budget
included a number of disappointments, the net impact to Milwaukee County was only
about $700,000 off from our overall revenue projections. A key factor was an
unbudgeted increase of approximately $3.2 million in additional transit aid in the final
State Budget. This, combined with the additional $4.0 million in tax levy included in my
recommended budget, will restore most of the service reductions proposed by MCTS to
meet the projected $10 million deficit in the mass transit budget. My vetoes retain the
added bus route service areas that were made possible by the additional state revenue.
In addition to the above, I am pleased the Board adopted the vast majority of my capital
investment recommendations totaling over $_____. As I indicated when I submitted the

CArcher_Email3016523

budget, these capital investments are critical to maintaining and improving our
recreational assets, our roads and parkways and our world-class Airport.
While the transit funding from Madison was welcome news, Milwaukee County and
counties in general did not fare well in the final adopted State Budget. State costs for
operating the state juvenile correctional institutions will increase by more than _____% in
2008, bringing the cost of housing a juvenile in a state facility to almost $100,000 per
year. Because the Youth Aids increase provided in the State Budget does not fully offset
this added cost, Milwaukee County property taxpayers will have to pay more than $2.0
million more for this State-mandated function in 2008 (this number needs to be doublechecked). Further, increased costs in the State Court System of over $2.0 million will
shift to the local property taxpayer as a result of the adopted State Budget.
Property taxpayers of Milwaukee County cannot be expected to fill the funding gaps
resulting from the State Budget. I will not excuse the excessive spending in Madison by
simply passing it onto Milwaukee County taxpayers. I have therefore exercised my veto
authority to correct the Courts budget to reflect the unwillingness of the State to
adequately fund the State Court system. My veto removes the $2.0 million in anticipated
state revenue that did not materialize in the final State Budget and adjusts the
expenditures of the Courts by a corresponding amount. So that these costs do not fall to
the local property taxpayer, I have vetoed $2.0 million of additional property tax levy
provided by the County Board in the County contingency fund that was intended to fill
the revenue gap created by the State. I also extend to the Chief Judge and County Board
Chairman an invitation to continue working with me to convince the Governor and the
State Legislature to fulfill their responsibility to adequately fund the State Courts, and my
administration also stands ready to assist the Chief Judge in developing a plan for making
the operational adjustments that will be required in the absence of additional state
support.
Similar to the failure of State government to fulfill its fiscal responsibilities, we are
seeing an increasing trend by the Federal government to pass the financial burden onto to
local governments. As a result of the Federal Deficit Reduction Act, Milwaukee County
will lose approximately $8.0 million in federal funding during 2008 for Child Support
Enforcement. As the Federal Government backs away from its responsibilities,
increasing pressure is placed on local governments to fill the gap. To be clear, I will not
use property tax levy to replace lost Federal funding. Consequently, I have vetoed
additional staff and property tax levy for the Department of Child Support Enforcement
in the amount of $_____. Further, I have exercised my veto authority to eliminate the use
of property tax levy to replace for the loss in Federal Access to Recovery grant funding in
the amount $600,000.
Like the State and Federal governments, County government also faces fiscal pressures
related to the cost of doing business. However, unlike the State and Federal
governments, I will not turn first to the taxpayer to balance the County’s budget.
Collectively, we have made great progress in controlling County government costs,
particularly in the area of employee heath care and pension costs. We have served our

CArcher_Email3016524

citizens well by making tough choices and pursuing creative solutions to control our
costs. Like the average family in Milwaukee County who must live within a budget
despite the increasing costs of health care, fuel, child care and other necessities, I believe
the County should do the same. We must continue to find creative ways to manage
County government responsibly and efficiently with the resources available to us.
Passing burden to the taxpayer is not the answer.
With this in mind, I am disappointed that the Board continues to reject creative solutions
I have recommended to streamline county government operations and reduce costs while
maintaining and in some cases improving County services. Of particular note is the
Board’s outright rejection of the staffing proposal for the Parks Department that would
have increased staff time for the maintenance of the parks by over 20,000 hours per year
while reducing County costs by more than $_______. The debate by the Board over this
provision focused primarily on preserving County jobs, rather than protecting County
taxpayers and improving the Parks system. As noted below, I have used my veto
authority to restore the original proposal I submitted to you. I continue to believe,
through the use of more efficient equipment and a flexible workforce, the Parks
department cannot only maintain the beauty of our Parks system, but can improve
maintenance by scheduling staff resources during the times of the year when most
needed. I am urging the Board to reexamine this proposal with an open mind.
Below are the specific vetoes I am returning to you for consideration. Sustaining the
vetoes below will result in maintaining the property tax levy at the 2007 level of
$______. I believe that the average family is already overburdened by increasing costs
and County government should not add to this burden. As noted below, through the use
of my veto authority, I am returning the 2008 Budget to the County Board with a tax levy
equal to the 2007 levy of $_______.
I have exercised my veto authority as follows:
Veto #1 County Board Salary Increases
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A 077
Amended Section 17.99 General Ordinances of Milwaukee County relating to the salaries
of the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors and the County Executive
This amendment increases personal service expenditures by $29,851 and reduces services
by the same amount in the County Board Office and authorizes an increase in Milwaukee
County Supervisors’ salaries of 4% effective April 1, 2008 to remain at that level for the
duration of the 2008-2012 term.
I have partially vetoed this provision and entirely vetoed the modifications to Ordinance
_____ to avoid reducing the budget for the County Board Office, but to remove the
authorization for the increased pay for County Board Supervisors.

CArcher_Email3016525

I have vetoed this provision because I do not believe a pay increase is warranted for
Supervisors. Moreover, I do not believe this provision should have been considered as a
last-minute amendment to the budget, but more appropriately should have been advanced
through the Personnel Committee to ensure full public debate of this policy and fiscal
matter.
Veto #2 Workforce Development Reform Task Force
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$125,000]
Amendment1A 072
This amendment authorizes the creation of a taskforce to make recommendations in order
to provide more focus and equitable employment funding in work reform for men,
particularly fathers and males of color, and provides an appropriation of $125,000 to
retain outside consultant assistance.
While I support the creation of the task force and look forward to working with the
County Board Chairman on this initiative, I have partially vetoed this provision to
eliminate the funding for an outside consultant. My partial veto retains the authorization
and creation of the task force as outlined in the amendment but eliminates the $125,000
in funding for consultant services because I believe there are sufficient existing County
resources to support this effort.
Veto #3 Earmark for Economic and Community Development Reserve Fund
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$50,000]
Amendment 1C008 &1A050
This amendment reduces expenditures for Medicare Reimbursement to Retired
Employees by $550,000 based on updated estimates and allocates $500,000 of the levy
savings to the appropriation for contingencies and $50,000 of the savings to the
Economic and Community Development Reserve Fund for a net levy impact of $0.
I have partially vetoed this provision to eliminate the allocation of $50,000 levy to the
Economic and Community Development Reserve Fund. My veto retains the allocation of
$500,000 to the appropriation for contingencies.
I have vetoed the allocation of additional funds to the Economic and Community
Development Reserve Fund because [is there a balance in this fund? Has the use of the
fund demonstrated results? Or should veto be to reduce property taxes?
Veto #4 Land Sales and Inclusive Housing Fund
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$1,000,000]
Amendment 1B022 & 1CO14
This amendment modifies the Land Sales budget to reflect the potential sale of the
County Grounds Northeast Quadrant to UW-Milwaukee and allocates $1.0 million of

CArcher_Email3016526

land sale revenue and expenditure authority to the Capital Improvements budget for
project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the listing of the sale of the County
Grounds Northeast Quadrant as a potential land sale in 2008, retain $1.0 million of
revenue in the Land Sales budget, but eliminate the reallocation of $1.0 million in land
sale revenue to the Capital Improvement project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund. My
partial veto also removes the authorized expenditure of $1.0 million for the Inclusive
Housing Fund resulting in a levy savings of $1.0 million.
I am concerned about the addition of $1.0 million to the Land Sales budget based on the
sale of the Northeast Quadrant. My concern is not over whether this sale should take
place, as I am very excited about the plans for a UWM School of Engineering on the
County Grounds, and I strongly believe that the sale of this parcel for that purpose is the
right move for the citizens of Milwaukee County. Instead, my concern is whether this
sale can be consummated by the end of 2008. Because one of the biggest obstacles to an
expeditious sale is potential delay by the County Board, the Board’s insertion of this
provision into the Budget allows me to feel more comfortable in retaining this provision.
I would remind Supervisors, however, that they have a responsibility to join me in
aggressively moving this project forward so that we can indeed realize this revenue in
2008.
I am vetoing the provision allocating $1.0 million from the Land Sales budget to the
Capital Improvements budget for project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund. The budget I
presented and ultimately adopted by the Board already includes $1.0 million for the
construction of housing for individuals with mental illness under the auspices of the new
Housing Division in the Department of Health and Human Services. Unlike the Inclusive
Housing Fund, this fund for special needs housing is governed by clear criteria proposed
by my administration and adopted by the County Board, and it is strategically designed to
address significant programmatic concerns in the Behavioral Health Division, including
overcrowding in its acute inpatient units and Psychiatric Crisis Service. Conversely, the
specific purpose of the Inclusive Housing Fund has never been defined and it has not
been determined how this fund is consistent with the core mission and strategic
objectives of Milwaukee County. In light of the recognized need for additional
affordable housing in Milwaukee County, my Recommended Budget did propose
allocating surplus land sales revenue to the Inclusive Housing Fund so that we could
develop a plan for the use of these funds and utilize them if they materialized due to a
surplus. However, in light of our fiscal constraints and the appropriation of $1.0 million
for special needs housing, I cannot justify dedicating an additional $1.0 million of direct
property tax levy for this purpose.

Veto #5: Courts Staffing
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]
Amendment _______

CArcher_Email3016527

The Courts budget I presented to the Board recommended the abolishment of 4.0 FTE
vacant Clerical Assistant 1 positions (two of which were also unfunded in 2007), the
abolishment of 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants and the
abolishment of 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns. This amendment restores and provides
funding for two of the four Clerical Assistant 1 positions, the 2.0 FTE Deputy Court
Clerk Judicial Assistants and the 9.0 Legal Research Interns. Under the amendment, 2.0
FTE Clerical Assistant 1 positions would remain but would be unfunded in 2008.
Finally, this amendment reduces the proposed lump sum salary adjustment for the Courts
by increasing funding for personal services by $167,396.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the authorization and full funding of the 9.0
FTE Legal Research Interns ($411,978) and to retain the authorization for the 2.0 FTE
Clerical Assistant 1 unfunded positions in the Register in Probate Division as approved
by the Board. However, my partial veto restores the abolishment and eliminates the
funding for the 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants and 2.0 FTE
Clerical Assistant 1 positions for a levy savings of $______. Further, by writing down
the reduction in the lump sum salary adjustment to $1, my partial veto will provide a net
salary reduction of $1,400,790 and a levy savings of $167,395.
I have retained the 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns because of the Chief Judge’s
expressed concern about the impact of such a reduction on the operations of the Courts.
However, I continue to believe that abolishing 4.0 FTE vacant support positions will not
jeopardize the operations of the Courts and that the lump sum reduction proposed in my
recommended budget is manageable.

Veto #6: State Funding for Courts System
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$2,000,000]
Amendment 1C009
The final State Budget did not include approximately $2.0 million in additional State aid
for the administration of the State Court System in Milwaukee County as anticipated by
the Courts in their 2008 budget request and in the 2008 Recommended Budget. The
County budget as adopted by the Board did not adjust the projected state aid for the
Courts as reflected in final provisions of the State Budget. As a result, as adopted, the
Courts budget includes approximately $2.0 million in State revenue that will not
materialize in 2008. However, the County Board, under Amendment 1C009,
appropriated an additional $3.0 million to the appropriation for contingencies to “help
partially mitigate State revenues that were not realized upon passage of the 2007-09
State Budget in late October 2007.”
I am partially vetoing the provision related to the Appropriation for Contingencies
(Amendment 1C009) to reduce by $2,000,000 the increase of $3,000,000 provided by the
Board. Further, I am partially vetoing the budget to reduce the budgeted revenues for the
Courts by $2,000,000 and reduce authorized expenditures for the Courts by $2,000,000.

CArcher_Email3016528

I am using my veto authority to adjust the Combined Court Related Operations budget to
reflect the realities of the final State Budget. I do not believe the failure of the State to
adequately fund the State Court System should result in shifting these costs to Milwaukee
County property taxpayers. My intent in reducing the increase to the contingency fund
adopted by the Board by $2.0 million is to prevent the shift of these costs to the tax levy,
and I hope the County Board will join me in 2008 in opposing any contingency fund
request to address this shortfall in State support to the Courts. The fiscal impact of this
veto is a reduction in tax levy of $2.0 million, a reduction in state aid to the Courts of
$2.0 million and a corresponding reduction in Court expenditures by $2.0 million.
Veto # 7: Child Support Enforcement Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]
Amendment 1A014
This amendment restores funding for 1.0 FTE Child Support Coordinator, 2.5 FTE Legal
Counsel Child Support 1 positions and 3.0 FTE Paralegal positions in the Department of
Child Support Enforcement.
I have vetoed this provision in its entirety because I will not support the use of property
tax levy to replace lost federal funding for Child Support Enforcement.
Veto #8: County Clerk Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$84,714]
Amendment 1A016
This amendment provides $84,714 in tax levy and restores the Deputy County Clerk
position in the County Clerk’s Office.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of Deputy County Clerk.
However, I have vetoed the additional property tax levy provided to the County Clerk’s
Office through this amendment for a levy savings of $84,714.

Veto #9 Register of Deeds Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$198,694]
Amendment 1A041
This amendment denies the abolishment of three positions, including one position each of
Deputy Register of Deeds, Clerical Assistant 1 and Office Support Assistant 2, the cost of
which is completely offset by increased real estate fee revenue.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of the Deputy Register of
Deeds, abolish the Clerical Assistant 1 position, abolish the Office Support Assistant 2
position and reduce the expenditures of the Register of Deeds by $198,694 for a levy
savings of $198,694.

CArcher_Email3016529

Veto #10: Farm and Fish Hatchery
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A012
The budget I presented to the Board included the closure of the House of Correction
Farm and Fish Hatchery for a levy savings of $256,384. I have consistently proposed the
closure of the Farm and Fish Hatchery because its operation is not a core county function
and because it diverts valuable resources away from activities supporting staff and inmate
safety at the House of Correction. The above referenced amendment restores the
operation of the Farm and Fish Hatchery.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to restore my intent to close the Farm and Fish
Hatchery in 2008.

Veto #10 House of Correction Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$342,618]
Amendment 1A049
This amendment restores $342,618 to the House of Correction budget for contractual
services expenditures related to AODA and job development/assessment programs
serving inmates at the Community Correctional Center (CCC).
I am vetoing this amendment in its entirety for a levy savings of $342,618 because my
budget contained adequate resources to ensure programming options will remain
available to offenders placed on home detention under the CCC downsizing initiative.
Specifically, the budget includes a full-time Community Services Coordinator to assist in
matching offenders with existing programs offered in the community. Placing more
emphasis on matching offenders to existing programs in the community is the most costeffective way to ensure offenders receive support.

Veto #11 Electronic Monitoring Monthly Briefings
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A048
This amendment requires the County Executive and the Superintendent of the House of
Corrections to provide monthly briefings through October 2008 for the Committee on
Judiciary, Safety and General Services on the ongoing development and implementation
of the expanded home detention program.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that the County
Executive provide briefings to the Committee on the Judiciary, Safety and General
Services because the County Executive is an elected Constitutional Officer not subject to
the oversight of the County Board or County Board committee.
Veto #12 Funding for 211 Phone Line
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$300,000]
Amendment 1A006
Amendment 1A056
These amendments restore $200,000 in tax levy to the Department of Health and Human
Services Budget and $100,000 in tax levy to the Department of Health and Human
Services Behavioral Health Division for the 211 phone line.
I am vetoing these amendments for a tax levy savings of $300,000 to reduce the tax
burden on Milwaukee County citizens and because this is not a core County function.
Veto #13 Behavioral Health Division Purchase of Services Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$302,016]

CArcher_Email3016534

Amendment 1A001
This amendment restores $302,016 in tax levy to the Department of Health and Human
Services-Behavioral Health Division for purchase of services contracts with the AIDS
Resource Center and Fighting Back, Inc. for AODA prevention activities.
I have vetoed this amendment entirely to provide a tax levy savings of $302,016. I do not
believe ____________, Rob?
Veto #14 Architectural and Engineering Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A039
This amendment provides $150,000 to the Department of Public Works – Architectural,
Engineering and Environmental budget for the building inventory and assessment
program.
I have vetoed this amendment entirely because there are sufficient resources in the
Department of Public Works to continue work on this initiative. My veto of this item
results in a tax levy savings of $150,000.
Veto #15 Transit Zone Fares
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A030
This amendment requires the Milwaukee County Transit System to prepare a zone fare
proposal for Waukesha County residents who use the Milwaukee County transit services
in the event Waukesha County institutes a zone fare for residents of Milwaukee County
who use Waukesha County transit services. Further, the amendment requires the
Milwaukee County Transit System to report its findings back to the Transportation,
Public Works and Transit Committee for Board approval.
I am vetoing this amendment entirely because I believe the state policy intent is counter
to productive discussions regarding regional transportation.
Veto #16 Access to Recovery Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$600,000]
Amendment 1A074
This amendment provides $600,000 in tax levy funding for the maintenance of effort for
AODA prevention services in 2008.
I am vetoing this amendment because I cannot support the use of tax levy to replace the
lost federal funding related to the Access to Recovery grant.

Veto #17 Youth Sports Authority Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$200,000]
Amendment 1A003
This amendment provides $200,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health and Human
Services Budget-Delinquency Courts Services Division budget for funding for the Youth
Sports Authority.
I am vetoing this amendment for a tax levy savings of $200,000 because this is not a core
function of County government that should be financed by the property taxpayer. This
veto results in a tax levy savings of $200,000.
Veto #18 Interim Disability Assistance Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$187,980]
Amendment 1A009
This amendment provides $187,980 in tax levy and 1.0 FTE ESS position for the Interim
Disability Assistance Program administered by the Department of Health and Human
Services.
I have vetoed this amendment because providing bridge funding for persons awaiting
federal social security benefits is not the responsibly of local government, but rather the
responsibility of the Federal Government. As such, these costs should not be borne by
the local property taxpayer. This veto reduces the property tax levy by $187,980.

DRAFT/

I have completed my review of the 2008 budget provisions adopted by the County Board
and have exercised my veto authority as noted below.
The budget as passed maintained most of the provisions included in the budget I
submitted to you in October. Specifically, as adopted, the Board maintained key public
safety provisions contained in my Recommended Budget, including full support for the
Sheriff’s Targeted Enforcement, Drug Enforcement and Expressway Patrol units,
additional funding for law enforcement equipment and Airport security, better monitoring
of Huber inmates through the use of Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) equipment,
increased funding for the Firearm Offender Supervision program and increased funding
for the County’s Emergency Medical Services system. In regard to the GPS initiative, I
welcome and support the County Board’s recommendation to engage the Community
Justice Council Steering Committee and to retain additional Correction Officer positions
in order to phase in the initiative.
The adopted budget also maintained my recommendations related to key human services
initiatives, including increased funding of more than $1.7 million for the Behavioral
Health Division to address patient and staff safety concerns caused by increased patient
volume and the increased acuity of patients being served at the mental health complex.
The Board also approved my supportive housing initiative that will provide an additional
$1 million for the construction of housing for individuals with mental illness. These
efforts, combined with the creation of a new Housing Division in the Department of
Health and Human Services and continued support for the recommendations of the
Special Needs Housing Action Team, provide for meaningful, long-range action to
address the housing needs of our most vulnerable citizens.
Finally, I am pleased with the provisions in the budget dealing with mass transit. When
preparing the budget, the uncertainty of the State Budget presented many challenges,
particularly in the area of mass transit, the State Court System, juvenile corrections and
shared revenue. Without question, working without a State Budget required some
assumptions as we crafted the 2008 County budget over the summer. Overall, we
attempted to take a conservative approach. While ultimately the final State Budget
included a number of disappointments, the net impact to Milwaukee County was only
about $700,000 off from our overall revenue projections. A key factor was an
unbudgeted increase of approximately $3.2 million in additional transit aid in the final
State Budget. This, combined with the additional $4.0 million in tax levy included in my
recommended budget, will restore most of the service reductions proposed by MCTS to
meet the projected $10 million deficit in the mass transit budget. My vetoes retain the
added bus route service areas that were made possible by the additional state revenue.
In addition to the above, I am pleased the Board adopted the vast majority of my capital
investment recommendations totaling over $_____. As I indicated when I submitted the

CArcher_Email3016538

budget, these capital investments are critical to maintaining and improving our
recreational assets, our roads and parkways and our world-class Airport.
While the transit funding from Madison was welcome news, Milwaukee County and
counties in general did not fare well in the final adopted State Budget. State costs for
operating the state juvenile correctional institutions will increase by more than _____% in
2008, bringing the cost of housing a juvenile in a state facility to almost $100,000 per
year. Because the Youth Aids increase provided in the State Budget does not fully offset
this added cost, Milwaukee County property taxpayers will have to pay more than $2.0
million more for this State-mandated function in 2008 (this number needs to be doublechecked). Further, increased costs in the State Court System of over $2.0 million will
shift to the local property taxpayer as a result of the adopted State Budget.
Property taxpayers of Milwaukee County cannot be expected to fill the funding gaps
resulting from the State Budget. I will not excuse the excessive spending in Madison by
simply passing it onto Milwaukee County taxpayers. I have therefore exercised my veto
authority to correct the Courts budget to reflect the unwillingness of the State to
adequately fund the State Court system. My veto removes the $2.0 million in anticipated
state revenue that did not materialize in the final State Budget and adjusts the
expenditures of the Courts by a corresponding amount. So that these costs do not fall to
the local property taxpayer, I have vetoed $2.0 million of additional property tax levy
provided by the County Board in the County contingency fund that was intended to fill
the revenue gap created by the State. I also extend to the Chief Judge and County Board
Chairman an invitation to continue working with me to convince the Governor and the
State Legislature to fulfill their responsibility to adequately fund the State Courts, and my
administration also stands ready to assist the Chief Judge in developing a plan for making
the operational adjustments that will be required in the absence of additional state
support.
Similar to the failure of State government to fulfill its fiscal responsibilities, we are
seeing an increasing trend by the Federal government to pass the financial burden onto to
local governments. As a result of the Federal Deficit Reduction Act, Milwaukee County
will lose approximately $8.0 million in federal funding during 2008 for Child Support
Enforcement. As the Federal Government backs away from its responsibilities,
increasing pressure is placed on local governments to fill the gap. To be clear, I will not
use property tax levy to replace lost Federal funding. Consequently, I have vetoed
additional staff and property tax levy for the Department of Child Support Enforcement
in the amount of $_____. Further, I have exercised my veto authority to eliminate the use
of property tax levy to replace for the loss in Federal Access to Recovery grant funding in
the amount $600,000.
Like the State and Federal governments, County government also faces fiscal pressures
related to the cost of doing business. However, unlike the State and Federal
governments, I will not turn first to the taxpayer to balance the County’s budget.
Collectively, we have made great progress in controlling County government costs,
particularly in the area of employee heath care and pension costs. We have served our

CArcher_Email3016539

citizens well by making tough choices and pursuing creative solutions to control our
costs. Like the average family in Milwaukee County who must live within a budget
despite the increasing costs of health care, fuel, child care and other necessities, I believe
the County should do the same. We must continue to find creative ways to manage
County government responsibly and efficiently with the resources available to us.
Passing burden to the taxpayer is not the answer.
With this in mind, I am disappointed that the Board continues to reject creative solutions
I have recommended to streamline county government operations and reduce costs while
maintaining and in some cases improving County services. Of particular note is the
Board’s outright rejection of the staffing proposal for the Parks Department that would
have increased staff time for the maintenance of the parks by over 20,000 hours per year
while reducing County costs by more than $_______. The debate by the Board over this
provision focused primarily on preserving County jobs, rather than protecting County
taxpayers and improving the Parks system. As noted below, I have used my veto
authority to restore the original proposal I submitted to you. I continue to believe,
through the use of more efficient equipment and a flexible workforce, the Parks
department cannot only maintain the beauty of our Parks system, but can improve
maintenance by scheduling staff resources during the times of the year when most
needed. I am urging the Board to reexamine this proposal with an open mind.
Below are the specific vetoes I am returning to you for consideration. Sustaining the
vetoes below will result in maintaining the property tax levy at the 2007 level of
$______. I believe that the average family is already overburdened by increasing costs
and County government should not add to this burden. As noted below, through the use
of my veto authority, I am returning the 2008 Budget to the County Board with a tax levy
equal to the 2007 levy of $_______.
I have exercised my veto authority as follows:

Veto #1 County Board Salary Increases
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A 077
Amended Section 17.99 General Ordinances of Milwaukee County relating to the salaries
of the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors and the County Executive
This amendment increases personal service expenditures by $29,851 and reduces services
by the same amount in the County Board Office and authorizes an increase in Milwaukee
County Supervisors’ salaries of 4% effective April 1, 2008 to remain at that level for the
duration of the 2008-2012 term.
I have partially vetoed this provision and entirely vetoed the modifications to Ordinance
_____ to avoid reducing the budget for the County Board Office, but to remove the
authorization for the increased pay for County Board Supervisors.

CArcher_Email3016540

I have vetoed this provision because I do not believe a pay increase is warranted for
Supervisors. Moreover, I do not believe this provision should have been considered as a
last-minute amendment to the budget, but more appropriately should have been advanced
through the Personnel Committee to ensure full public debate of this policy and fiscal
matter.
Veto #2 Workforce Development Reform Task Force
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$125,000]
Amendment1A 072
This amendment authorizes the creation of a taskforce to make recommendations in order
to provide more focus and equitable employment funding in work reform for men,
particularly fathers and males of color, and provides an appropriation of $125,000 to
retain outside consultant assistance.
While I support the creation of the task force and look forward to working with the
County Board Chairman on this initiative, I have partially vetoed this provision to
eliminate the funding for an outside consultant. My partial veto retains the authorization
and creation of the task force as outlined in the amendment but eliminates the $125,000
in funding for consultant services because I believe there are sufficient existing County
resources to support this effort.
Veto #3 Land Sales and Inclusive Housing Fund
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$1,000,000]
Amendment 1B022 & 1CO14
This amendment modifies the Land Sales budget to reflect the potential sale of the
County Grounds Northeast Quadrant to UW-Milwaukee and allocates $1.0 million of
land sale revenue and expenditure authority to the Capital Improvements budget for
project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the listing of the sale of the County
Grounds Northeast Quadrant as a potential land sale in 2008, retain $1.0 million of
revenue in the Land Sales budget, but eliminate the reallocation of $1.0 million in land
sale revenue to the Capital Improvement project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund. My
partial veto also removes the authorized expenditure of $1.0 million for the Inclusive
Housing Fund resulting in a levy savings of $1.0 million.
I am concerned about the addition of $1.0 million to the Land Sales budget based on the
sale of the Northeast Quadrant. My concern is not over whether this sale should take
place, as I am very excited about the plans for a UWM School of Engineering on the
County Grounds, and I strongly believe that the sale of this parcel for that purpose is the
right move for the citizens of Milwaukee County. Instead, my concern is whether this
sale can be consummated by the end of 2008. Because one of the biggest obstacles to an
expeditious sale is potential delay by the County Board, the Board’s insertion of this
provision into the Budget allows me to feel more comfortable in retaining this provision.

CArcher_Email3016541

I would remind Supervisors, however, that they have a responsibility to join me in
aggressively moving this project forward so that we can indeed realize this revenue in
2008.
I am vetoing the provision allocating $1.0 million from the Land Sales budget to the
Capital Improvements budget for project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund. The budget I
presented and ultimately adopted by the Board already includes $1.0 million for the
construction of housing for individuals with mental illness under the auspices of the new
Housing Division in the Department of Health and Human Services. Unlike the Inclusive
Housing Fund, this fund for special needs housing is governed by clear criteria proposed
by my administration and adopted by the County Board, and it is strategically designed to
address significant programmatic concerns in the Behavioral Health Division, including
overcrowding in its acute inpatient units and Psychiatric Crisis Service. Conversely, the
specific purpose of the Inclusive Housing Fund has never been defined and it has not
been determined how this fund is consistent with the core mission and strategic
objectives of Milwaukee County. In light of the recognized need for additional
affordable housing in Milwaukee County, my Recommended Budget did propose
allocating surplus land sales revenue to the Inclusive Housing Fund so that we could
develop a plan for the use of these funds and utilize them if they materialized due to a
surplus. However, in light of our fiscal constraints and the appropriation of $1.0 million
for special needs housing, I cannot justify dedicating an additional $1.0 million of direct
property tax levy for this purpose.

Veto #4: Courts Staffing
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]
Amendment _______
The Courts budget I presented to the Board recommended the abolishment of 4.0 FTE
vacant Clerical Assistant 1 positions (two of which were also unfunded in 2007), the
abolishment of 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants and the
abolishment of 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns. This amendment restores and provides
funding for two of the four Clerical Assistant 1 positions, the 2.0 FTE Deputy Court
Clerk Judicial Assistants and the 9.0 Legal Research Interns. Under the amendment, 2.0
FTE Clerical Assistant 1 positions would remain but would be unfunded in 2008.
Finally, this amendment reduces the proposed lump sum salary adjustment for the Courts
by increasing funding for personal services by $167,396.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the authorization and full funding of the 9.0
FTE Legal Research Interns ($411,978) and to retain the authorization for the 2.0 FTE
Clerical Assistant 1 unfunded positions in the Register in Probate Division as approved
by the Board. However, my partial veto restores the abolishment and eliminates the
funding for the 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants and 2.0 FTE
Clerical Assistant 1 positions for a levy savings of $______. Further, by writing down
the reduction in the lump sum salary adjustment to $1, my partial veto will provide a net
salary reduction of $1,400,790 and a levy savings of $167,395.

CArcher_Email3016542

I have retained the 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns because of the Chief Judge’s
expressed concern about the impact of such a reduction on the operations of the Courts.
However, I continue to believe that abolishing 4.0 FTE vacant support positions will not
jeopardize the operations of the Courts and that the lump sum reduction proposed in my
recommended budget is manageable.

Veto #5: State Funding for Courts System
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$2,000,000]
Amendment 1C009
The final State Budget did not include approximately $2.0 million in additional State aid
for the administration of the State Court System in Milwaukee County as anticipated by
the Courts in their 2008 budget request and in the 2008 Recommended Budget. The
County budget as adopted by the Board did not adjust the projected state aid for the
Courts as reflected in final provisions of the State Budget. As a result, as adopted, the
Courts budget includes approximately $2.0 million in State revenue that will not
materialize in 2008. However, the County Board, under Amendment 1C009,
appropriated an additional $3.0 million to the appropriation for contingencies to “help
partially mitigate State revenues that were not realized upon passage of the 2007-09
State Budget in late October 2007.”
I am partially vetoing the provision related to the Appropriation for Contingencies
(Amendment 1C009) to reduce by $2,000,000 the increase of $3,000,000 provided by the
Board. Further, I am partially vetoing the budget to reduce the budgeted revenues for the
Courts by $2,000,000 and reduce authorized expenditures for the Courts by $2,000,000.
I am using my veto authority to adjust the Combined Court Related Operations budget to
reflect the realities of the final State Budget. I do not believe the failure of the State to
adequately fund the State Court System should result in shifting these costs to Milwaukee
County property taxpayers. My intent in reducing the increase to the contingency fund
adopted by the Board by $2.0 million is to prevent the shift of these costs to the tax levy,
and I hope the County Board will join me in 2008 in opposing any contingency fund
request to address this shortfall in State support to the Courts. The fiscal impact of this
veto is a reduction in tax levy of $2.0 million, a reduction in state aid to the Courts of
$2.0 million and a corresponding reduction in Court expenditures by $2.0 million.
Veto #6: Child Support Enforcement Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]
Amendment 1A014
This amendment restores funding for 1.0 FTE Child Support Coordinator, 2.5 FTE Legal
Counsel Child Support 1 positions and 3.0 FTE Paralegal positions in the Department of
Child Support Enforcement.

CArcher_Email3016543

I have vetoed this provision in its entirety because I will not support the use of property
tax levy to replace lost federal funding for Child Support Enforcement.
Veto #7: County Clerk Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$84,714]
Amendment 1A016
This amendment provides $84,714 in tax levy and restores the Deputy County Clerk
position in the County Clerk’s Office.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of Deputy County Clerk.
However, I have vetoed the additional property tax levy provided to the County Clerk’s
Office through this amendment for a levy savings of $84,714. In light of the significant
fiscal challenges facing all County departments, it is necessary for the County Clerk
implement strategies to live within the personal services allocation provided in my
Recommended Budget.

Veto #8 Register of Deeds Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$198,694]
Amendment 1A041
This amendment denies the abolishment of three positions, including one position each of
Deputy Register of Deeds, Clerical Assistant 1 and Office Support Assistant 2, the cost of
which is completely offset by increased real estate fee revenue.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of the Deputy Register of
Deeds, abolish the Clerical Assistant 1 position, abolish the Office Support Assistant 2
position and reduce the expenditures of the Register of Deeds by $198,694 for a levy
savings of $198,694. In light of the significant fiscal challenges facing all County
departments, it is necessary for the Register of Deeds to implement strategies to live
within the personal services allocation provided in my Recommended Budget.

Veto #9: Farm and Fish Hatchery
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A012
The budget I presented to the Board included the closure of the House of Correction
Farm and Fish Hatchery for a levy savings of $256,384. I have consistently proposed the
closure of the Farm and Fish Hatchery because its operation is not a core county function
and because it diverts valuable resources away from activities supporting staff and inmate
safety at the House of Correction. The above referenced amendment restores the
operation of the Farm and Fish Hatchery.

CArcher_Email3016544

I have partially vetoed this amendment to restore my intent to close the Farm and Fish
Hatchery in 2008.

Veto #10 House of Correction Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$342,618]
Amendment 1A049
This amendment restores $342,618 to the House of Correction budget for contractual
services expenditures related to AODA and job development/assessment programs
serving inmates at the Community Correctional Center (CCC).
I am vetoing this amendment in its entirety for a levy savings of $342,618 because my
budget contained adequate resources to ensure programming options will remain
available to offenders placed on home detention under the CCC downsizing initiative.
Specifically, the budget includes a full-time Community Services Coordinator to assist in
matching offenders with existing programs offered in the community. Placing more
emphasis on matching offenders to existing programs in the community is the most costeffective way to ensure offenders receive support.

Veto #11 Electronic Monitoring Monthly Briefings
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A048
This amendment requires the County Executive and the Superintendent of the House of
Corrections to provide monthly briefings through October 2008 for the Committee on
Judiciary, Safety and General Services on the ongoing development and implementation
of the expanded home detention program.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that the County
Executive provide briefings to the Committee on the Judiciary, Safety and General
Services because the County Executive is an elected Constitutional Officer not subject to
the oversight of the County Board or County Board committee.
Veto #12 Funding for 211 Phone Line
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$300,000]
Amendment 1A006
Amendment 1A056
These amendments restore $200,000 in tax levy to the Department of Health and Human
Services Budget and $100,000 in tax levy to the Department of Health and Human
Services Behavioral Health Division for the 211 phone line.
I am vetoing these amendments for a tax levy savings of $300,000 to reduce the tax
burden on Milwaukee County citizens and because this is not a core County function.

CArcher_Email3016545

Veto #13 Behavioral Health Division Purchase of Services Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$302,016]
Amendment 1A001
This amendment restores $302,016 in tax levy to the Department of Health and Human
Services-Behavioral Health Division for purchase of services contracts with the AIDS
Resource Center and Fighting Back, Inc. for AODA prevention activities.
I have vetoed this amendment entirely to provide a tax levy savings of $302,016. I do not
believe ____________, Rob?
Veto #14 Architectural and Engineering Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A039
This amendment provides $150,000 to the Department of Public Works – Architectural,
Engineering and Environmental budget for the building inventory and assessment
program.
I have vetoed this amendment entirely because there are sufficient resources in the
Department of Public Works to continue work on this initiative. My veto of this item
results in a tax levy savings of $150,000.
Veto #15 Transit Zone Fares
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A030
This amendment requires the Milwaukee County Transit System to prepare a zone fare
proposal for Waukesha County residents who use the Milwaukee County transit services
in the event Waukesha County institutes a zone fare for residents of Milwaukee County
who use Waukesha County transit services. Further, the amendment requires the
Milwaukee County Transit System to report its findings back to the Transportation,
Public Works and Transit Committee for Board approval.
I am vetoing this amendment entirely because I believe the state policy intent is counter
to productive discussions regarding regional transportation.
Veto #16 Access to Recovery Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$600,000]
Amendment 1A074
This amendment provides $600,000 in tax levy funding for the maintenance of effort for
AODA prevention services in 2008.

CArcher_Email3016546

I am vetoing this amendment because I cannot support the use of tax levy to replace the
lost federal funding related to the Access to Recovery grant.
Veto #17 Youth Sports Authority Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$200,000]
Amendment 1A003
This amendment provides $200,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health and Human
Services Budget-Delinquency Courts Services Division budget for funding for the Youth
Sports Authority.
I am vetoing this amendment for a tax levy savings of $200,000 because this is not a core
function of County government that should be financed by the property taxpayer. This
veto results in a tax levy savings of $200,000.
Veto #18 Interim Disability Assistance Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$187,980]
Amendment 1A009
This amendment provides $187,980 in tax levy and 1.0 FTE ESS position for the Interim
Disability Assistance Program administered by the Department of Health and Human
Services.
I have vetoed this amendment because providing bridge funding for persons awaiting
federal social security benefits is not the responsibly of local government, but rather the
responsibility of the Federal Government. As such, these costs should not be borne by
the local property taxpayer. This veto reduces the property tax levy by $187,980.

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 1000 –County Board, by increasing personal service expenditures
$29,851, reducing services expenditures $29,851 (including a reduction in
Supervisors’ individual office accounts due to a projected reduction in districtrelated activity during the first four months of 2008, and in other accounts), and
modifying the budget narrative as follows:
•

Expenditures of $29,851 are included for an increase in Milwaukee
County Supervisors’ salaries. Salaries for positions of County Supervisor
and County Board Chairman will increase four percent (4%) effective April
21, 2008, the commencement of the new Supervisory term, and remain at
that level for the duration of the 2008-2012 term. This adjustment reflects
the fact that the positions of County Supervisor and County Board
Chairman have not received a salary increase since 2000. Absent this
salary adjustment, Supervisor and County Board Chairman positions
would receive no increase for at least twelve (12) years. A March 14,
2007, survey of legislative and executive salaries by the Milwaukee
County Department of Audit supported a conclusion that Milwaukee
County Supervisor salaries are significantly lower than those in
comparable jurisdictions surveyed. This salary adjustment reflects an
effort to begin to address these survey findings.

•

Services are reduced $48,525 $18,674, from $347,064 to $298,539
$328,390, including a reduction in outside printing and stationery of
$6,000, to reflect increased use of the House of Correction printing
service, and reductions in other service accounts.

2007 to allocate $100,000 to St. Catherine’s Residence, Inc. to assist in
financing a 46-unit addition of affordable housing to their facility on 1032 E.
Knapp Street. St. Catherine’s Residence, Inc. had applied for Wisconsin
Housing and Economic Development Authority grant funding and the
County Board’s action improved the possibility of receiving WHEDA
funding. This project was subsequently approved by WHEDA. The
resolution allocated the $100,000 from the 2006 appropriation in WO043 –
Milwaukee County Inclusive Housing Fund, which was to receive this
revenue from the sale of Park East land. No revenue was received in 2006
from the Park East land. This project will begin construction in 2008 and
this amendment will provide the funds needed to carry out the adopted
resolution in 2008.
This fund will be used to execute the housing provisions of the Park East
Redevelopment Compact (PERC). Milwaukee County has committed to
sponsor construction of new affordable housing of not less than 20 percent
of the total housing units built on the County’s Park East lands. The
County, in each request for proposal for any given parcel, may require a
different percentage of affordable housing or have no requirement at all.

Additional funding is included in the 2008 Appropriation for Contingencies

passage of the 2007-09 State Budget in late October 2007. The County
Executive Recommended Budget anticipated $4,157,246 in additional
State aid that was not realized in the approved State Budget. This
included $2,099,771 in circuit court support grants, $980,000 in shared
revenue and $1,077,475 in youth aids.
In addition, the County Executive’s proposal to close the Community
Correctional Facility (CCC) and release all of the inmates using global

Section:
From 2002 through 2005, health care costs rose from $81.5 million to $120.2
million, an increase of 47.5%. Two key variables put the County on a path of
continued double-digit increases. The first was failure to resolve health care
benefit issues as part of labor negotiations. The second was a decision to
move the County's employee and retiree health care program from a selfinsured model to a fully-insured model. Labor negotiation was effectively
resolved under the leadership of the Committee on Personnel with the support
of the Committee on Finance and Audit as well as the Chairman and Members
of the County Board. As a result, annual health care costs were reduced by
about $12.5 million (assuming a maximum allowable increase of approximately
15.8% under the former fully-insured administrative contract). The second
major step in containing health care costs was the action of the Committee on
Finance and Audit to create the Health Care Workgroup. The Workgroup was
successful in negotiating a return to a self-insured program resulting in
approximately $10.5 million in savings to be realized in 2007 (again, compared
to increases of 15.8% under the former contract). Combined, these two
initiatives put the County in a position to achieve savings of approximately
$25.8 million for 2008 when compared to what costs could have been without
benefit design changes and without a return to a self-insured program.

For 2008, the Recommended Budget anticipates approximately $10.5 million
in expected savings from the issuance of $267 million in pension obligation
bonds, an increase of $4.25 million from the 2007 amount. Again, State
legislative approval is still necessary in order to issue and potentially realize
these budgeted savings. The County Executive first proposed pension
obligation bond financing as a means to achieve budgetary savings in the fall
of 2004. A Spring 2005 advisory public referendum on whether the County
should issue $261 million in pension obligation bonds was defeated by a vote
of 57% to 43%. Despite efforts by key County officials and staff, the
Legislature has thus far failed to provide the County with the authority to issue
pension obligation bonds to enable the County to achieve the anticipated
pension contribution savings.
As a safeguard against continued failure to achieve the necessary legislation,
the POB Work Group is encouraged to review additional modifications in
pension funding that could alleviate potential under funding of the pension
contribution if pension obligation bonds are not issued.
For background, the 2007 Recommended Budget assumed a budgetary
savings of $6.25 million each year based on the issuance of $455 million in
pension obligation bonds. The County Board assumed an additional pension
contribution savings of $3.5 million in 2007 based on an expected review and
change in current assumptions by the actuaries that impact funding
requirements.
In 2007, the County was notified that due to changes
recommended by the actuaries, the required pension contribution was lowered
by $6.6 million. The savings associated with a pension obligation bond
financing, however, have not been realized because the State has not
provided the County with the authority needed to issue pension obligation
bonds for the proposed timeframe.

Sales and Use Tax Ordinance
Section 22.04, Milwaukee County Ordinances, originally required sales tax
revenue be used to pay tax-supported debt service costs. Surplus revenues
not needed for debt service payments were required to be used to directly
finance capital improvements.
On June 18, 2003, the County Board of Supervisors approved Resolution File
No. 03-263(a)(a), which modified Section 22.04 of the General Ordinances so
that surplus sales and use tax revenues could be used to also pre-fund
employee benefit costs or fund anticipated or extraordinary annual increases in
such costs or supplement the Appropriation for Contingencies. The 2003
resolution permitted excess sales tax revenues to be used for the above
general fund purposes through calendar year 2007.
As noted above, 2008 sales tax collections are projected at $66,225,949. The

Tax Ordinance, the excess could only be used to cash finance 2008 capital
improvements.
A revised Ordinance will be submitted with the 2008
Recommended Budget to permanently codify the 2003 provisions scheduled to
sunset in 2007. This allows all or a portion of the excess to be applied toward
the County’s Pension Fund Contribution, Employee/Retiree Health Care costs,
or the Appropriation for Contingencies. The Committee on Finance and Audit
during its 2008 budget deliberations deferred the matter to its December 2007
meeting for further policy consideration and action.

To amend the County Executive’s 2008 Recommended Budget for Org. Unit
No. 2430 – Department of Child Support Enforcement, to reflect a
State/County contract addendum that allows the Department to draw down
additional Federal revenue and restore several positions; and to amend
several additional departmental budgets to reflect modifications in fringe
benefit legacy costs in light of position restorations in Org. Unit No. 2430.
These actions would be accomplished as follows:
1. A 2007 State/County Contract addendum will provide the Department of
Child Support Enforcement with early access to $217,882 of Milwaukee
County’s 2008 incentive revenue allocation. The advanced funding will
support 2007 Child Support Enforcement operations. In exchange, the
State/County contract requires the Department of Child Support
Enforcement to carry forward local property tax levy funding to 2008 in an
amount equivalent to the $217,882 in incentive revenue that was
advanced to 2007. This increase in local funds must be used to support
County Child Support operations in 2008 and can be utilized to draw
down additional Federal matching funds. The following modifications
shall be made to the 2008 Budget for Org. Unit No. 2430 to effectuate
these changes:
•

Decrease federal incentive revenue by $217,882, from $3,596,989 to

Division, by amending the narrative on page 6300-6 as follows:
•

AODA prevention and intervention contracts are reduced $2,610,087, due
primarily to the anticipated decrease in Federal grant revenue for the
Access to Recovery (ATR) program. BHD, via the State of Wisconsin,
successfully applied for and received a three-year Access to Recovery
grant totaling approximately $22 million in late 2004, which has provided
approximately $7 million in grant revenue during each of the past three
years. Nationwide funding for ATR recently has diminished, and BHD’s
ATR grant is expected to be reduced to approximately $4.8 million for
2008. This significant grant still provides the Division with considerably
more funding for AODA services than it possessed four years ago.

•

Due to this significant reduction in Access to Recovery funding, an
additional $600,000 in tax levy funding is allocated for maintenance of
effort for AODA prevention and intervention services in 2008.

A $150,000 appropriation is included to continue funding of the Safe
Alternatives for Youth (SAY) program in 2008. This program was initially
established with a $150,000 appropriation in the 2003 County Budget to
provide community-based services to young people living in low-income
areas of Milwaukee County who were exposed to barriers that placed
them at risk in their community. Since 2003, under the direction of the
SAY Oversight Committee and the administration of the Milwaukee Urban
League as fiscal agent, SAY has distributed more than 80 small grants for
one-time educational, cultural, recreational and other activities, which
have enhanced life experiences of disadvantaged youth and have
positively impacted 3,000 youth.
In 2008, the SAY program will continue to operate under the provisions of
Adopted County Board Resolution File No. 03-247, which established the
Safe Homes (subsequently re-named Safe Alternatives for Youth)
Oversight Committee.
Consistent with the terms of the Adopted
Resolution, the SAY Oversight Committee, appointed by the County Board
Chairman, will continue to oversee the program and direct the distribution
of small SAY grants, and the Milwaukee Urban League will continue to
serve as SAY fiscal agent. The Director of the Department of Health and
Human Services shall execute a contract in the amount of $12,000 with
the Milwaukee Urban League for fiscal agent services, including serving as
depository for the funds to be allocated, distributing the funds as directed
by the SAY Oversight Committee, preparing and distributing tax forms for
grantees, and providing quarterly reports on the distribution of funds and
remaining balances to the SAY Oversight Committee. In addition, the
Director of the Department of Health and Human Services is authorized to
deposit $138,000 in SAY appropriations with the Milwaukee Urban League
as fiscal agent, from which identified activities under the program will be
funded.

novelties and souvenirs in October of 2007 and October of 2008,

appropriation for resale novelties and souvenirs. A substantial portion of
resale merchandise sold at the Milwaukee County Zoo is purchased from
import vendors to provide the quantity and variety of items desired by the
general public visiting the Zoo. Due to the distance and travel time
required for overseas shipments, the Zoo must order resale merchandise
in the fall for spring delivery. Precedent exists in past County Board
authorization for the Zoo to purchase resale items for the upcoming year.
Budget authority is included in the 2008 Zoo budget in lieu of separate

3. The abatement of countywide crosscharges is discontinued in 2008.
The tax levy previously in the servicing department is redistributed to
the recipient departments in an amount corresponding to the
crosscharges. This results in a tax levy redistribution equal to the
change in abatements. Due primarily to this change in methodology,
there is no increase or decrease in direct tax levy for this department

Safety, affordability and pride. These are the three themes that I used to prepare our
2008 county budget and these are the guidelines I used to make final recommendations
on the budget.
Safety
Thankfully, the County Board returned to me a budget that largely retains the public
safety improvements I made for the coming year.
•
•
•
•
•
•

Sheriff will have more tools to fight crime through the Targeted Enforcement Unit,
drug enforcement and expressway patrol units and new equipment.
District Attorney will have staff needed to prosecute and monitor criminals.
Move forward on a plan to provide monitoring of Huber offenders on a 24-hour
basis and not just when they check in to sleep at night.
Increase support for programs that work keeping juveniles out of a cycle of crime.
Add Parks Patrols to broaden our ability to monitor what is going on in the parks.
Improve our nationally recognized EMS system with new equipment that will
save more lives.

Public safety is a priority in this budget.
Affordability
So is making it affordable to live, work, learn and retire in Milwaukee County. Recently
it was noted that the costs of electricity, fuel, gas, groceries and medicine had gone up.
The conclusion was that the amount government collects from the taxpayers should go
up too. I agree with the assessment of costs, but disagree with the outcome. Costs are
going up and that is all the more reason why we have to be mindful of what our
residents and employers can afford.
The reaction of taxpayers at the MPS budget meeting should remind us that most
people in Milwaukee County feel we already pay too much to the government. The
budget I return to the County Board today not only avoids an increase; it actually
provides a slight decrease in the property tax levy.
Keeping residents here in their homes and attracting new ones is good. So is keeping
and attracting jobs to our county. Recent census estimates show that even the City of
Milwaukee is adding more residents.
Economic growth is important. Last year, we saw more than $1.1 billion in new
construction throughout Milwaukee County. To further that growth – and to make the
case for businesses like Miller Brewing to stay here – we must hold the line on taxes,
which will lower their cost of doing business in our region.
Pride

CArcher_Email3016601

Controlling the tax burden can be done while also insuring that we continue to provide
core services – the kinds of services that make us proud to live in Milwaukee County.
Our budget (and these vetoes) seeks to provide these services in new and innovative
ways that are more cost effective.
Parks: A good example is the in the parks. My original budget would replace a wave of
entry-level, year-round parks workers with funding for new seasonal employees. This
plan would protect the taxpayers by saving money but also protect the parks by adding
nearly 20,000 more hours of labor. My vetoes include a return to this money-saving
way to get more work done in the parks.
We maintain the new funding for parks maintenance included in the budget and add it to
the $12.9 million I included to improve our parks system. We begin work on a new
aquatics center at Lincoln Park, install new playground equipment, improve our
parkways, build new splash pads, upgrade trails and fix areas of the lakefront.
Our budget also maintains funding for the cultural institutions and provides infrastructure
improvements at the zoo.
Transportation: Our budget maintains all of our bus and ParaTransit routes. It includes
no increase in the cost of ParaTransit rides or in the costs of passes for frequent users
of the transit system. While the state is still providing considerably less than the
historical level of support, there was some help in the latest budget. We used that
funding to support our bus system.
Major improvements continue at General Mitchell International Airport. In September,
the airport broke the monthly record for passengers and is on pace to (once again)
break the annual passenger record. A national travel magazine recently named our
airport as the 4th best in the country. Our improvements are working.
And this budget includes a major investment in infrastructure. We improve county
roadways and bridges. We also include funding to resurface a number of parkways.
Human Services: Finally, our budget includes major support for those in need in our
community. These items include:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

Continuation of senior centers and senior meal programs.
Long-term care needs for older adults continue to be met under FamilyCare.
Seek to expand the benefits of FamilyCare to those under 60 with developmental
or physical disabilities.
Major improvements in staffing and resources for mental health services.
A new imitative to address the housing needs of those with mental illness.
Managed care coverage for those with no source of healthcare.
New childcare fraud unit to protect children.

These are the things that make us proud to live in Milwaukee County and they continue
to be priorities in this budget.

The budget passed by the County Board is good because it includes the majority of the
strong initiatives that I included in my original budget to make this county safer and to
reflect the pride we have in our people and assets. Now, I call on the members of the
County Board to finish the job and make this budget affordable for the people of
Milwaukee County. This will make a good budget great.

DRAFT/

I have completed my review of the 2008 budget provisions adopted by the County Board
and have exercised my veto authority as noted below.
The budget as passed maintained most of the provisions included in the budget I
submitted to you in October. Specifically, as adopted, the Board maintained key public
safety provisions contained in my Recommended Budget, including full support for the
Sheriff’s Targeted Enforcement, Drug Enforcement and Expressway Patrol units,
additional funding for law enforcement equipment and Airport security, better monitoring
of Huber inmates through the use of Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) equipment,
increased funding for the Firearm Offender Supervision program and increased funding
for the County’s Emergency Medical Services system. In regard to the GPS initiative, I
welcome and support the County Board’s recommendation to engage the Community
Justice Council Steering Committee and to retain additional Correction Officer positions
in order to phase in the initiative.
The adopted budget also maintained my recommendations related to key human services
initiatives, including increased funding of more than $1.7 million for the Behavioral
Health Division to address patient and staff safety concerns caused by increased patient
volume and the increased acuity of patients being served at the mental health complex.
The Board also approved my supportive housing initiative that will provide an additional
$1 million for the construction of housing for individuals with mental illness. These
efforts, combined with the creation of a new Housing Division in the Department of
Health and Human Services and continued support for the recommendations of the
Special Needs Housing Action Team, provide for meaningful, long-range action to
address the housing needs of our most vulnerable citizens.
Finally, I am pleased with the provisions in the budget dealing with mass transit. When
preparing the budget, the uncertainty of the State Budget presented many challenges,
particularly in the area of mass transit, the State Court System, juvenile corrections and
shared revenue. Without question, working without a State Budget required some
assumptions as we crafted the 2008 County budget over the summer. Overall, we
attempted to take a conservative approach. While ultimately the final State Budget
included a number of disappointments, the net impact to Milwaukee County was only
about $700,000 off from our overall revenue projections. A key factor was an
unbudgeted increase of approximately $3.2 million in additional transit aid in the final
State Budget. This, combined with the additional $4.0 million in tax levy included in my
recommended budget, will restore most of the service reductions proposed by MCTS to
meet the projected $10 million deficit in the mass transit budget. My vetoes retain the
added bus route service areas that were made possible by the additional state revenue.
In addition to the above, I am pleased the Board adopted the vast majority of my capital
investment recommendations totaling over $_____. As I indicated when I submitted the

CArcher_Email3016604

budget, these capital investments are critical to maintaining and improving our
recreational assets, our roads and parkways and our world-class Airport.
While the transit funding from Madison was welcome news, Milwaukee County and
counties in general did not fare well in the final adopted State Budget. State costs for
operating the state juvenile correctional institutions will increase by more than _____% in
2008, bringing the cost of housing a juvenile in a state facility to almost $100,000 per
year. Because the Youth Aids increase provided in the State Budget does not fully offset
this added cost, Milwaukee County property taxpayers will have to pay more than $2.0
million more for this State-mandated function in 2008 (this number needs to be doublechecked). Further, increased costs in the State Court System of over $2.0 million will
shift to the local property taxpayer as a result of the adopted State Budget.
Property taxpayers of Milwaukee County cannot be expected to fill the funding gaps
resulting from the State Budget. I will not excuse the excessive spending in Madison by
simply passing it onto Milwaukee County taxpayers. I have therefore exercised my veto
authority to correct the Courts budget to reflect the unwillingness of the State to
adequately fund the State Court system. My veto removes the $2.0 million in anticipated
state revenue that did not materialize in the final State Budget and adjusts the
expenditures of the Courts by a corresponding amount. So that these costs do not fall to
the local property taxpayer, I have vetoed $2.0 million of additional property tax levy
provided by the County Board in the County contingency fund that was intended to fill
the revenue gap created by the State. I also extend to the Chief Judge and County Board
Chairman an invitation to continue working with me to convince the Governor and the
State Legislature to fulfill their responsibility to adequately fund the State Courts, and my
administration also stands ready to assist the Chief Judge in developing a plan for making
the operational adjustments that will be required in the absence of additional state
support.
Similar to the failure of State government to fulfill its fiscal responsibilities, we are
seeing an increasing trend by the Federal government to pass the financial burden onto to
local governments. As a result of the Federal Deficit Reduction Act, Milwaukee County
will lose approximately $8.0 million in federal funding during 2008 for Child Support
Enforcement. As the Federal Government backs away from its responsibilities,
increasing pressure is placed on local governments to fill the gap. To be clear, I will not
use property tax levy to replace lost Federal funding. Consequently, I have vetoed
additional staff and property tax levy for the Department of Child Support Enforcement
in the amount of $_____. Further, I have exercised my veto authority to eliminate the use
of property tax levy to replace for the loss in Federal Access to Recovery grant funding in
the amount $600,000.
Like the State and Federal governments, County government also faces fiscal pressures
related to the cost of doing business. However, unlike the State and Federal
governments, I will not turn first to the taxpayer to balance the County’s budget.
Collectively, we have made great progress in controlling County government costs,
particularly in the area of employee heath care and pension costs. We have served our

CArcher_Email3016605

citizens well by making tough choices and pursuing creative solutions to control our
costs. Like the average family in Milwaukee County who must live within a budget
despite the increasing costs of health care, fuel, child care and other necessities, I believe
the County should do the same. We must continue to find creative ways to manage
County government responsibly and efficiently with the resources available to us.
Passing burden to the taxpayer is not the answer.
With this in mind, I am disappointed that the Board continues to reject creative solutions
I have recommended to streamline county government operations and reduce costs while
maintaining and in some cases improving County services. Of particular note is the
Board’s outright rejection of the staffing proposal for the Parks Department that would
have increased staff time for the maintenance of the parks by over 20,000 hours per year
while reducing County costs by more than $_______. The debate by the Board over this
provision focused primarily on preserving County jobs, rather than protecting County
taxpayers and improving the Parks system. As noted below, I have used my veto
authority to restore the original proposal I submitted to you. I continue to believe,
through the use of more efficient equipment and a flexible workforce, the Parks
department cannot only maintain the beauty of our Parks system, but can improve
maintenance by scheduling staff resources during the times of the year when most
needed. I am urging the Board to reexamine this proposal with an open mind.
Below are the specific vetoes I am returning to you for consideration. Sustaining the
vetoes below will result in maintaining the property tax levy at the 2007 level of
$______. I believe that the average family is already overburdened by increasing costs
and County government should not add to this burden. As noted below, through the use
of my veto authority, I am returning the 2008 Budget to the County Board with a tax levy
equal to the 2007 levy of $_______.
I have exercised my veto authority as follows:
Veto #1: County Board Salary Increases

Veto #2 Workforce Development Reform Task Force

Attached is the draft veto message reflecting both mine and Rob's edits.
Please review and make edits as you see fit. This needs to be done by Monday
probably around noon so that corp counsel can review along with the strikes to
ensure the message reflects the impacts of the strikes. I will forward you the
individual messages when they are done.

Veto 19-23 for Rob.doc

Rob, I took all your edits but made a few minor changes noted in red on the
attached. I could use some help on the SAY attached.

My plan today is to get what we have done to corp counsel so they can start the
review. I still need to talk to them about how to veto the ordinance and make
sure we have all the components in the veto pkt (like the write down of the
total levy). I will also get their read if SKW should initial the actual
strikes.

I still need to check on the write down of the courts levy and finish parks.

Veto #10 House of Correction Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$342,618]
Amendment 1A049
This amendment restores $342,618 to the House of Correction budget for contractual
services expenditures related to AODA and job development/assessment programs
serving inmates at the Community Correctional Center (CCC).
I am vetoing this amendment in its entirety for a levy savings of $342,618. In light of the
County’s budget constraints and the pressure of unfunded and underfunded State and
Federal mandates, we must dedicate our public safety dollars to core correctional
services. Also, while this veto will eliminate contractual services for AODA and job
development/assessment for Huber inmates, the budget still includes my proposal to fund
a full-time Community Services Coordinator to assist in matching offenders with existing
programs offered in the community.

Veto #11 Electronic Monitoring Monthly Briefings
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A048
This amendment requires the County Executive and the Superintendent of the House of
Corrections to provide monthly briefings through October 2008 for the Committee on
Judiciary, Safety and General Services on the ongoing development and implementation
of the expanded home detention program.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that the County
Executive provide briefings to the Committee on the Judiciary, Safety and General
Services because the County Executive is an elected Constitutional Officer not subject to
the oversight of the County Board or County Board committees.
Veto #12 Funding for 211 Phone Line
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$300,000]
Amendment 1A006
Amendment 1A056
These amendments provide an additional $200,000 in tax levy to the Department of
Health and Human Services and $100,000 in tax levy to the Department of Health and
Human Services Behavioral Health Division for the 211 phone line.
I am vetoing these amendments for a tax levy savings of $300,000 to reduce the tax
burden on Milwaukee County citizens. Unfortunately, the refusal of the State of
Wisconsin to properly fund mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions
of dollars of property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as
Income Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health.
This unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might

CArcher_Email3016619

otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human services such as the 211 line. It is also
important to recognize that the budget still will appropriate $200,000 for the 211 line per
my original recommendation, which is a substantial contribution to this function.
Veto #13 Behavioral Health Division Purchase of Services Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$302,016]
Amendment 1A001
This amendment provides an additional $302,016 in tax levy to the Department of Health
and Human Services-Behavioral Health Division for purchase of services contracts with
the AIDS Resource Center and Fighting Back, Inc. for AODA prevention activities.
As noted above, unfortunately, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to properly fund
mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of property tax
levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income Maintenance,
Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health. This unfortunate
reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might otherwise desire to fund
non-mandated human services such as AODA prevention and education activities. It is
also important to recognize that the budget still will appropriate more than $500,000 for
these contracts per my original recommendation, which is a substantial contribution to

Veto #14 Architectural and Engineering Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A039
This amendment provides $150,000 to the Department of Public Works – Architectural,
Engineering and Environmental budget for the building inventory and assessment
program.
I have vetoed this amendment entirely because there are sufficient resources in the
Department of Public Works to continue work on this initiative. My veto of this item
results in a tax levy savings of $150,000.
Veto #15 Transit Zone Fares
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A030
This amendment requires the Milwaukee County Transit System to prepare a zone fare
proposal for Waukesha County residents who use the Milwaukee County transit services
in the event Waukesha County institutes a zone fare for residents of Milwaukee County
who use Waukesha County transit services. Further, the amendment requires the
Milwaukee County Transit System to report its findings back to the Transportation,
Public Works and Transit Committee for Board approval.

CArcher_Email3016620

I am vetoing this amendment entirely because I believe it runs counter to Milwaukee
County’s need and desire to engage in productive discussions with other Southeastern
Wisconsin counties regarding regional transportation.
Veto #16 AODA Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$600,000]
Amendment 1A074
This amendment provides an additional $600,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health
and Human Services – Behavioral Health Division budget for AODA services in 2008.
I am vetoing this amendment because I cannot support the use of tax levy to replace the
lost Federal funding related to the Access to Recovery grant. It is also critical to note that
the County’s AODA budget still will be nearly $18 million, which is $4.5 million more
than the amount provided prior to receipt of the original ATR grant.
Veto #17 Youth Sports Authority Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$200,000]
Amendment 1A003
This amendment provides $200,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health and Human
Services Budget-Delinquency Courts Services Division budget for funding for the Youth
Sports Authority.
I am vetoing this amendment for a tax levy savings of $200,000 because this is not a core
function of County government that should be financed by the property taxpayer. As
noted above, unfortunately, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to properly fund
mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of property tax
levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income Maintenance,
Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health. This unfortunate
reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might otherwise desire to fund
non-mandated human services such as the Youth Sports Authority.
Veto #18 Interim Disability Assistance Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$187,980]
Amendment 1A009
This amendment provides $187,980 in tax levy and 1.0 FTE ESS position for the Interim
Disability Assistance Program administered by the Department of Health and Human
Services.
I have vetoed this amendment because providing bridge funding for persons awaiting
Federal Social Security benefits is not the responsibly of local government, but rather the
responsibility of the Federal Government. As such, these costs should not be borne by
the local property taxpayer. Also, as noted above, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to
properly fund mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of

CArcher_Email3016621

property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income
Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health. This
unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might otherwise
desire to fund non-mandated human services such as IDAP. This veto reduces the
property tax levy by $187,980.
Veto #19 Safe Alternatives For Youth Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A051
This amendment provides $150,000 tax levy in the Department of Human Services –
Delinquency and Court Services Division budget for implementation of the Safe
Alternatives for Youth Program in 2008 per the provisions of Adopted County Board
Resolution File No. 03-247 which established the Safe Homes (subsequently re-named
the Safe Alternatives for Youth program) oversight committee.. Under the provisions of
this amendment, the Director of the Department of Health and Human Services is
directed to execute a contract in the amount of $12,000 with the Milwaukee Urban
League for fiscal agent services and is authorized to deposit $138,000 in SAY
appropriations with the Milwaukee Urban League as fiscal agent, from which identified
activities under the program will be funded.
I have vetoed this amendment in its entirety for three reasons. First, I do not believe it is
appropriate to bypass existing competitive procurement policies for the purchase of
services from community-based organizations since doing so provides and unfair
advantage to one provider over other community-based organizations offering similar
programming services. Second, add something about how this duplicates existing
programs in DHHS. Finally, as noted above, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to
properly fund mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of
property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income
Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health. This
unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might otherwise
desire to fund non-mandated human services such as this program.
This veto results in tax levy savings of $150,000.

Veto #20 Wading Pool Hours
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A 065
This amendment requires the Parks Director to staff the Milwaukee County wading pools
at staggered hours to ensure that some wading pools will open at 10:00 a.m. and some
will remain open until 7:00 p.m. during the entire aquatics season. Further, the
amendment requires the Parks Director to report back to the County Board with a 2008
wading pool schedule prior to the opening of the aquatics season.

CArcher_Email3016622

I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that wading pools be
staffed to ensure that some wading pools will open at 10:00 a.m. and some will remain
open until 7:00 p.m. during the entire aquatics season because I believe the Parks
Director should maintain the administrative and management flexibility to establish
wading pool hours based on usage, weather conditions and maintenance needs.
I am confident the Parks Director will continue to work with the Board to ensure
appropriate availability of parks resources to County residents. My partial veto retains
the requirement that the Parks Director shall report back to the County Board with a 2008
wading pool schedule prior to the opening of the aquatics season.
need to be sure Scott is ok with partial veto on this one

Veto #21 Parks Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]
Amendment _______

Veto# 23: UW-Extension Contract
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$172,533]
Amendment 1A 018
This amendment denies the proposed termination of Milwaukee County’s contract with
the Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin System effective 2008 and restores
funding to the 2007 levy for the UW-Extension by increasing expenditures by $293,613
and increasing revenues by $121,080 for a net tax levy increase of $172,533.
I have exercised my partial veto authority to eliminate the continuation of this contract,
remove the expenditure of $293,613, the revenue of 121,080 and the tax levy of
$172,533. As partially vetoed, Milwaukee County’s contract would terminate with the
Board of regents effective 2008. My partial veto retains the $37,500 for rent and related
lease expenses for the first four months of 2008.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to effect the termination of the contract and the
removal of funding for the UW-Extension contract because I believe that these funds are
better spent on higher priority core County functions.

Veto #23 Capital Budget Marcus Center
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]
Amendment _______

To all:

Can I make a suggestion?

What if we release SKW document today as a statement on the County Budget or a
state on forthcoming vetoes and then we proceed with the more formal message to
the Board?

I know the veto message is somewhat long and technical, but I am thinking it
has to be because it is a legislative document directed to the Board. SKW's is
a great piece for a pre-statement to the public (media). That would give us a
press bump today and another when we send the official document down.

I want to prepare a document that is easy for the public (i.e. media) to
understand that reviews what we did with the budget (draft attached) and then I
want to take the language in your attached docuement and include it in the
individual vetoes. We can also add some non-vetoes of amendments that can pull

Other suggestions:
Veto #2 should not be listed as the task force but as removing funding for the
consultant
Veto #3 on ECD fund is out

We need to add a veto on the Marcus Center capital
We need to add a veto on the tax levy.
Non-vetoes might be transit and DAs office.

DRAFT/

I have completed my review of the 2008 budget provisions adopted by the County Board
and have exercised my veto authority as noted below.
The budget as passed maintained most of the provisions included in the budget I
submitted to you in October. Specifically, as adopted, the Board maintained key public
safety provisions contained in my Recommended Budget, including full support for the
Sheriff’s Targeted Enforcement, Drug Enforcement and Expressway Patrol units,
additional funding for law enforcement equipment and Airport security, better monitoring
of Huber inmates through the use of Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) equipment,
increased funding for the Firearm Offender Supervision program and increased funding
for the County’s Emergency Medical Services system. In regard to the GPS initiative, I
welcome and support the County Board’s recommendation to engage the Community
Justice Council Steering Committee and to retain additional Correction Officer positions
in order to phase in the initiative.
The adopted budget also maintained my recommendations related to key human services
initiatives, including increased funding of more than $1.7 million for the Behavioral
Health Division to address patient and staff safety concerns caused by increased patient
volume and the increased acuity of patients being served at the mental health complex.
The Board also approved my supportive housing initiative that will provide an additional
$1 million for the construction of housing for individuals with mental illness. These
efforts, combined with the creation of a new Housing Division in the Department of
Health and Human Services and continued support for the recommendations of the
Special Needs Housing Action Team, provide for meaningful, long-range action to
address the housing needs of our most vulnerable citizens.
Finally, I am pleased with the provisions in the budget dealing with mass transit. When
preparing the budget, the uncertainty of the State Budget presented many challenges,
particularly in the area of mass transit, the State Court System, juvenile corrections and
shared revenue. Without question, working without a State Budget required some
assumptions as we crafted the 2008 County budget over the summer. Overall, we
attempted to take a conservative approach. While ultimately the final State Budget
included a number of disappointments, the net impact to Milwaukee County was only
about $700,000 off from our overall revenue projections. A key factor was an
unbudgeted increase of approximately $3.2 million in additional transit aid in the final
State Budget. This, combined with the additional $4.0 million in tax levy included in my
recommended budget, will restore most of the service reductions proposed by MCTS to
meet the projected $10 million deficit in the mass transit budget. My vetoes retain the
added bus route service areas that were made possible by the additional state revenue.
In addition to the above, I am pleased the Board adopted the vast majority of my capital
investment recommendations totaling over $_____. As I indicated when I submitted the

CArcher_Email3016626

budget, these capital investments are critical to maintaining and improving our
recreational assets, our roads and parkways and our world-class Airport.
While the transit funding from Madison was welcome news, Milwaukee County and
counties in general did not fare well in the final adopted State Budget. State costs for
operating the state juvenile correctional institutions will increase by more than _____% in
2008, bringing the cost of housing a juvenile in a state facility to almost $100,000 per
year. Because the Youth Aids increase provided in the State Budget does not fully offset
this added cost, Milwaukee County property taxpayers will have to pay more than $2.0
million more for this State-mandated function in 2008 (this number needs to be doublechecked). Further, increased costs in the State Court System of over $2.0 million will
shift to the local property taxpayer as a result of the adopted State Budget.
Property taxpayers of Milwaukee County cannot be expected to fill the funding gaps
resulting from the State Budget. I will not excuse the excessive spending in Madison by
simply passing it onto Milwaukee County taxpayers. I have therefore exercised my veto
authority to correct the Courts budget to reflect the unwillingness of the State to
adequately fund the State Court system. My veto removes the $2.0 million in anticipated
state revenue that did not materialize in the final State Budget and adjusts the
expenditures of the Courts by a corresponding amount. So that these costs do not fall to
the local property taxpayer, I have vetoed $2.0 million of additional property tax levy
provided by the County Board in the County contingency fund that was intended to fill
the revenue gap created by the State. I also extend to the Chief Judge and County Board
Chairman an invitation to continue working with me to convince the Governor and the
State Legislature to fulfill their responsibility to adequately fund the State Courts, and my
administration also stands ready to assist the Chief Judge in developing a plan for making
the operational adjustments that will be required in the absence of additional state
support.
Similar to the failure of State government to fulfill its fiscal responsibilities, we are
seeing an increasing trend by the Federal government to pass the financial burden onto to
local governments. As a result of the Federal Deficit Reduction Act, Milwaukee County
will lose approximately $8.0 million in federal funding during 2008 for Child Support
Enforcement. As the Federal Government backs away from its responsibilities,
increasing pressure is placed on local governments to fill the gap. To be clear, I will not
use property tax levy to replace lost Federal funding. Consequently, I have vetoed
additional staff and property tax levy for the Department of Child Support Enforcement
in the amount of $_____. Further, I have exercised my veto authority to eliminate the use
of property tax levy to replace for the loss in Federal Access to Recovery grant funding in
the amount $600,000.
Like the State and Federal governments, County government also faces fiscal pressures
related to the cost of doing business. However, unlike the State and Federal
governments, I will not turn first to the taxpayer to balance the County’s budget.
Collectively, we have made great progress in controlling County government costs,
particularly in the area of employee heath care and pension costs. We have served our

CArcher_Email3016627

citizens well by making tough choices and pursuing creative solutions to control our
costs. Like the average family in Milwaukee County who must live within a budget
despite the increasing costs of health care, fuel, child care and other necessities, I believe
the County should do the same. We must continue to find creative ways to manage
County government responsibly and efficiently with the resources available to us.
Passing burden to the taxpayer is not the answer.
With this in mind, I am disappointed that the Board continues to reject creative solutions
I have recommended to streamline county government operations and reduce costs while
maintaining and in some cases improving County services. Of particular note is the
Board’s outright rejection of the staffing proposal for the Parks Department that would
have increased staff time for the maintenance of the parks by over 20,000 hours per year
while reducing County costs by more than $_______. The debate by the Board over this
provision focused primarily on preserving County jobs, rather than protecting County
taxpayers and improving the Parks system. As noted below, I have used my veto
authority to restore the original proposal I submitted to you. I continue to believe,
through the use of more efficient equipment and a flexible workforce, the Parks
department cannot only maintain the beauty of our Parks system, but can improve
maintenance by scheduling staff resources during the times of the year when most
needed. I am urging the Board to reexamine this proposal with an open mind.
Below are the specific vetoes I am returning to you for consideration. Sustaining the
vetoes below will result in maintaining the property tax levy at the 2007 level of
$______. I believe that the average family is already overburdened by increasing costs
and County government should not add to this burden. As noted below, through the use
of my veto authority, I am returning the 2008 Budget to the County Board with a tax levy
equal to the 2007 levy of $_______.
I have exercised my veto authority as follows:
Veto #1: County Board Salary Increases

Veto #2 Workforce Development Reform Task Force

Safety, affordability and pride. These are the three themes that I used to prepare our
2008 county budget and these are the guidelines I used to make final recommendations
on the budget.
Safety
Thankfully, the County Board returned to me a budget that largely retains the public
safety improvements I made for the coming year.
•
•
•
•
•
•

Sheriff will have more tools to fight crime through the Targeted Enforcement Unit,
drug enforcement and expressway patrol units and new equipment.
District Attorney will have staff needed to prosecute and monitor criminals.
Move forward on a plan to provide monitoring of Huber offenders on a 24-hour
basis and not just when they check in to sleep at night.
Increase support for programs that work keeping juveniles out of a cycle of crime.
Add Parks Patrols to broaden our ability to monitor what is going on in the parks.
Improve our nationally recognized EMS system with new equipment that will
save more lives.

Public safety is a priority in this budget.
Affordability
So is making it affordable to live, work, learn and retire in Milwaukee County. Recently
it was noted that the costs of electricity, fuel, gas, groceries and medicine had gone up.
The conclusion was that the amount government collects from the taxpayers should go
up too. I agree with the assessment of costs, but disagree with the outcome. Costs are
going up and that is all the more reason why we have to be mindful of what our
residents and employers can afford.
The reaction of taxpayers at the MPS budget meeting should remind us that most
people in Milwaukee County feel we already pay too much to the government. The
budget I return to the County Board today not only avoids an increase; it actually
provides a slight decrease in the property tax levy.
Keeping residents here in their homes and attracting new ones is good. So is keeping
and attracting jobs to our county. Recent census estimates show that even the City of
Milwaukee is adding more residents.
Economic growth is important. Last year, we saw more than $1.1 billion in new
construction throughout Milwaukee County. To further that growth – and to make the
case for businesses like Miller Brewing to stay here – we must hold the line on taxes,
which will lower their cost of doing business in our region.
Pride

CArcher_Email3016631

Controlling the tax burden can be done while also insuring that we continue to provide
core services – the kinds of services that make us proud to live in Milwaukee County.
Our budget (and these vetoes) seeks to provide these services in new and innovative
ways that are more cost effective.
Parks: A good example is the in the parks. My original budget would replace a wave of
entry-level, year-round parks workers with funding for new seasonal employees. This
plan would protect the taxpayers by saving money but also protect the parks by adding
nearly 20,000 more hours of labor. My vetoes include a return to this money-saving
way to get more work done in the parks.
We maintain the new funding for parks maintenance included in the budget and add it to
the $12.9 million I included to improve our parks system. We begin work on a new
aquatics center at Lincoln Park, install new playground equipment, improve our
parkways, build new splash pads, upgrade trails and fix areas of the lakefront.
Our budget also maintains funding for the cultural institutions and provides infrastructure
improvements at the zoo.
Transportation: Our budget maintains all of our bus and ParaTransit routes. It includes
no increase in the cost of ParaTransit rides or in the costs of passes for frequent users
of the transit system. While the state is still providing considerably less than the
historical level of support, there was some help in the latest budget. We used that
funding to support our bus system.
Major improvements continue at General Mitchell International Airport. In September,
the airport broke the monthly record for passengers and is on pace to (once again)
break the annual passenger record. A national travel magazine recently named our
airport as the 4th best in the country. Our improvements are working.
And this budget includes a major investment in infrastructure. We improve county
roadways and bridges. We also include funding to resurface a number of parkways.
Human Services: Finally, our budget includes major support for those in need in our
community. These items include:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

Continuation of senior centers and senior meal programs.
Long-term care needs for older adults continue to be met under FamilyCare.
Seek to expand the benefits of FamilyCare to those under 60 with developmental
or physical disabilities.
Major improvements in staffing and resources for mental health services.
A new imitative to address the housing needs of those with mental illness.
Managed care coverage for those with no source of healthcare.
New childcare fraud unit to protect children.

CArcher_Email3016632

These are the things that make us proud to live in Milwaukee County and they continue
to be priorities in this budget.

The budget passed by the County Board is good because it includes the majority of the
strong initiatives that I included in my original budget to make this county safer and to
reflect the pride we have in our people and assets. Now, I call on the members of the
County Board to finish the job and make this budget affordable for the people of
Milwaukee County. This will make a good budget great.

individal veto messages2.doc

Attached are drafts of the individual messages that go with each strike. These
will be included at the bottom of SKW "preamble" message.
Please take a look at these.
Keep in mind the substance of these is governed by the Constitutional
requirements for them to be valid. Each message to be valid must include four
components: 1) what the provision does; 2) what is being struck; 3) the impact
of the strike (i.e. what remains) and 4) the reason for the strike. These are
legal documents that if challenged must be sustainable in Court they must be
technically consistent with the Constitutional requirements.
As you will note, I still have a few to finish including the Parks which will
take some time. I also have to review the strikes and messages with Corp
Counsel and when approved prepare the final packet that includes SKW preamble
message with the individual messages and strikes. Plus, all numbers still must
be verified.
I understood our goal to be getting the complete packet to the County Board by
noon tomorrow. I will need several hours in the morning for compilation.
Thanks.

I have exercised my veto authority as follows:

Veto #1 County Board Salary Increases
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A 077
Amended Section 17.99 General Ordinances of Milwaukee County relating to the salaries
of the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors and the County Executive
This amendment increases personal service expenditures by $29,851 and reduces services
by the same amount in the County Board Office and authorizes an increase in Milwaukee
County Supervisors’ salaries of 4% effective April 1, 2008 to remain at that level for the
duration of the 2008-2012 term.
I have partially vetoed this provision and entirely vetoed the modifications to Ordinance
_____ to avoid reducing the budget for the County Board Office, but to remove the
authorization for the increased pay for County Board Supervisors.
I have vetoed this provision because I do not believe a pay increase is warranted for
Supervisors. Moreover, I do not believe this provision should have been considered as a
last-minute amendment to the budget, but more appropriately should have been advanced
through the Personnel Committee to ensure full public debate of this policy and fiscal
matter.
Veto #2 Workforce Development Reform Task Force
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$125,000]
Amendment1A 072
This amendment authorizes the creation of a taskforce to make recommendations in order
to provide more focus and equitable employment funding in work reform for men,
particularly fathers and males of color, and provides an appropriation of $125,000 to
retain outside consultant assistance.
While I support the creation of the task force and look forward to working with the
County Board Chairman on this initiative, I have partially vetoed this provision to
eliminate the funding for an outside consultant. My partial veto retains the authorization
and creation of the task force as outlined in the amendment but eliminates the $125,000
in funding for consultant services because I believe there are sufficient existing County
resources to support this effort.
Veto #3 Land Sales and Inclusive Housing Fund
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$1,000,000]
Amendment 1B022 & 1CO14

CArcher_Email3016635

This amendment modifies the Land Sales budget to reflect the potential sale of the
County Grounds Northeast Quadrant to UW-Milwaukee and allocates $1.0 million of
land sale revenue and expenditure authority to the Capital Improvements budget for
project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the listing of the sale of the County
Grounds Northeast Quadrant as a potential land sale in 2008, retain $1.0 million of
revenue in the Land Sales budget, but eliminate the reallocation of $1.0 million in land
sale revenue to the Capital Improvement project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund. My
partial veto also removes the authorized expenditure of $1.0 million for the Inclusive
Housing Fund resulting in a levy savings of $1.0 million.
I am concerned about the addition of $1.0 million to the Land Sales budget based on the
sale of the Northeast Quadrant. My concern is not over whether this sale should take
place, as I am very excited about the plans for a UWM School of Engineering on the
County Grounds, and I strongly believe that the sale of this parcel for that purpose is the
right move for the citizens of Milwaukee County. Instead, my concern is whether this
sale can be consummated by the end of 2008. Because one of the biggest obstacles to an
expeditious sale is potential delay by the County Board, the Board’s insertion of this
provision into the Budget allows me to feel more comfortable in retaining this provision.
I would remind Supervisors, however, that they have a responsibility to join me in
aggressively moving this project forward so that we can indeed realize this revenue in
2008.
I am vetoing the provision allocating $1.0 million from the Land Sales budget to the
Capital Improvements budget for project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund. The budget I
presented and ultimately adopted by the Board already includes $1.0 million for the
construction of housing for individuals with mental illness under the auspices of the new
Housing Division in the Department of Health and Human Services. Unlike the Inclusive
Housing Fund, this fund for special needs housing is governed by clear criteria proposed
by my administration and adopted by the County Board, and it is strategically designed to
address significant programmatic concerns in the Behavioral Health Division, including
overcrowding in its acute inpatient units and Psychiatric Crisis Service. Conversely, the
specific purpose of the Inclusive Housing Fund has never been defined and it has not
been determined how this fund is consistent with the core mission and strategic
objectives of Milwaukee County. In light of the recognized need for additional
affordable housing in Milwaukee County, my Recommended Budget did propose
allocating surplus land sales revenue to the Inclusive Housing Fund so that we could
develop a plan for the use of these funds and utilize them if they materialized due to a
surplus. However, in light of our fiscal constraints and the appropriation of $1.0 million
for special needs housing, I cannot justify dedicating an additional $1.0 million of direct
property tax levy for this purpose.

Veto #4: Courts Staffing
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]

CArcher_Email3016636

Amendment _______
The Courts budget I presented to the Board recommended the abolishment of 4.0 FTE
vacant Clerical Assistant 1 positions (two of which were also unfunded in 2007), the
abolishment of 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants and the
abolishment of 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns. This amendment restores and provides
funding for two of the four Clerical Assistant 1 positions, the 2.0 FTE Deputy Court
Clerk Judicial Assistants and the 9.0 Legal Research Interns. Under the amendment, 2.0
FTE Clerical Assistant 1 positions would remain but would be unfunded in 2008.
Finally, this amendment reduces the proposed lump sum salary adjustment for the Courts
by increasing funding for personal services by $167,396.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the authorization and full funding of the 9.0
FTE Legal Research Interns ($411,978) and to retain the authorization for the 2.0 FTE
Clerical Assistant 1 unfunded positions in the Register in Probate Division as approved
by the Board. However, my partial veto restores the abolishment and eliminates the
funding for the 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants and 2.0 FTE
Clerical Assistant 1 positions for a levy savings of $______. Further, by writing down
the reduction in the lump sum salary adjustment to $1, my partial veto will provide a net
salary reduction of $1,400,790 and a levy savings of $167,395.
I have retained the 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns because of the Chief Judge’s
expressed concern about the impact of such a reduction on the operations of the Courts.
However, I continue to believe that abolishing 4.0 FTE vacant support positions will not
jeopardize the operations of the Courts and that the lump sum reduction proposed in my
recommended budget is manageable.

Veto #5: State Funding for Courts System
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$2,000,000]
Amendment 1C009
The final State Budget did not include approximately $2.0 million in additional State aid
for the administration of the State Court System in Milwaukee County as anticipated by
the Courts in their 2008 budget request and in the 2008 Recommended Budget. The
County budget as adopted by the Board did not adjust the projected state aid for the
Courts as reflected in final provisions of the State Budget. As a result, as adopted, the
Courts budget includes approximately $2.0 million in State revenue that will not
materialize in 2008. However, the County Board, under Amendment 1C009,
appropriated an additional $3.0 million to the appropriation for contingencies to “help
partially mitigate State revenues that were not realized upon passage of the 2007-09
State Budget in late October 2007.”
I am partially vetoing the provision related to the Appropriation for Contingencies
(Amendment 1C009) to reduce by $2,000,000 the increase of $3,000,000 provided by the

CArcher_Email3016637

Board. Further, I am partially vetoing the budget to reduce the budgeted revenues for the
Courts by $2,000,000 and reduce authorized expenditures for the Courts by $2,000,000.
I am using my veto authority to adjust the Combined Court Related Operations budget to
reflect the realities of the final State Budget. I do not believe the failure of the State to
adequately fund the State Court System should result in shifting these costs to Milwaukee
County property taxpayers. My intent in reducing the increase to the contingency fund
adopted by the Board by $2.0 million is to prevent the shift of these costs to the tax levy,
and I hope the County Board will join me in 2008 in opposing any contingency fund
request to address this shortfall in State support to the Courts. The fiscal impact of this
veto is a reduction in tax levy of $2.0 million, a reduction in state aid to the Courts of
$2.0 million and a corresponding reduction in Court expenditures by $2.0 million.
I extend to the Chief Judge and County Board Chairman an invitation to continue
working with me to convince the Governor and the State Legislature to fulfill their
responsibility to adequately fund the State Courts, and my administration also stands
ready to assist the Chief Judge in developing a plan for making the operational
adjustments that will be required in the absence of additional state support.

Veto #6: Child Support Enforcement Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]
Amendment 1A014
This amendment restores funding for 1.0 FTE Child Support Coordinator, 2.5 FTE Legal
Counsel Child Support 1 positions and 3.0 FTE Paralegal positions in the Department of
Child Support Enforcement.
I have vetoed this provision in its entirety because I will not support the use of property
tax levy to replace lost federal funding for Child Support Enforcement.
Veto #7: County Clerk Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$84,714]
Amendment 1A016
This amendment provides $84,714 in tax levy and restores the Deputy County Clerk
position in the County Clerk’s Office.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of Deputy County Clerk.
However, I have vetoed the additional property tax levy provided to the County Clerk’s
Office through this amendment for a levy savings of $84,714. In light of the significant
fiscal challenges facing all County departments, it is necessary for the County Clerk
implement strategies to live within the personal services allocation provided in my
Recommended Budget.

CArcher_Email3016638

Veto #8 Register of Deeds Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$198,694]
Amendment 1A041
This amendment denies the abolishment of three positions, including one position each of
Deputy Register of Deeds, Clerical Assistant 1 and Office Support Assistant 2, the cost of
which is completely offset by increased real estate fee revenue.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of the Deputy Register of
Deeds, abolish the Clerical Assistant 1 position, abolish the Office Support Assistant 2
position and reduce the expenditures of the Register of Deeds by $198,694 for a levy
savings of $198,694. In light of the significant fiscal challenges facing all County
departments, it is necessary for the Register of Deeds to implement strategies to live
within the personal services allocation provided in my Recommended Budget.

Veto #9: Farm and Fish Hatchery
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A012
The budget I presented to the Board included the closure of the House of Correction
Farm and Fish Hatchery for a levy savings of $256,384. I have consistently proposed the
closure of the Farm and Fish Hatchery because its operation is not a core county function
and because it diverts valuable resources away from activities supporting staff and inmate
safety at the House of Correction. The above referenced amendment restores the
operation of the Farm and Fish Hatchery.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to restore my intent to close the Farm and Fish
Hatchery in 2008.
Veto #10 House of Correction Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$342,618]
Amendment 1A049
This amendment restores $342,618 to the House of Correction budget for contractual
services expenditures related to AODA and job development/assessment programs
serving inmates at the Community Correctional Center (CCC).
I am vetoing this amendment in its entirety for a levy savings of $342,618. In light of the
County’s budget constraints and the pressure of unfunded and underfunded State and
Federal mandates, we must dedicate our public safety dollars to core correctional
services. Also, while this veto will eliminate contractual services for AODA and job
development/assessment for Huber inmates, the budget still includes my proposal to fund
a full-time Community Services Coordinator to assist in matching offenders with existing
programs offered in the community.

CArcher_Email3016639

Veto #11 Electronic Monitoring Monthly Briefings
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A048
This amendment requires the County Executive and the Superintendent of the House of
Correction to provide monthly briefings through October 2008 for the Committee on
Judiciary, Safety and General Services on the ongoing development and implementation
of the expanded home detention program.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that the County
Executive provide briefings to the Committee on the Judiciary, Safety and General
Services because the County Executive is an elected Constitutional Officer not subject to
the oversight of the County Board or County Board committees.
Veto #12 Funding for 211 Phone Line
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$300,000]
Amendment 1A006
Amendment 1A056
These amendments provide an additional $200,000 in tax levy to the Department of
Health and Human Services and $100,000 in tax levy to the Department of Health and
Human Services Behavioral Health Division for the 211 phone line.
I am vetoing these amendments for a tax levy savings of $300,000 to reduce the tax
burden on Milwaukee County citizens. Unfortunately, the refusal of the State of
Wisconsin to properly fund mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions
of dollars of property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as
Income Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health.
This unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might
otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human services such as the 211 line. It is also
important to recognize that the budget still will appropriate $200,000 for the 211 line per
my original recommendation, which is a substantial contribution to this function.
Veto #13 Behavioral Health Division Purchase of Services Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$302,016]
Amendment 1A001
This amendment provides an additional $302,016 in tax levy to the Department of Health
and Human Services-Behavioral Health Division for purchase of services contracts with
the AIDS Resource Center and Fighting Back, Inc. for AODA prevention activities.
As noted above, unfortunately, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to properly fund
mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of property tax
levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income Maintenance,
Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health. This unfortunate

CArcher_Email3016640

reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might otherwise desire to fund
non-mandated human services such as AODA prevention and education activities. It is
also important to recognize that the budget still will appropriate more than $500,000 for
these contracts per my original recommendation, which is a substantial contribution to
this function.
Veto #14 Architectural and Engineering Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A039
This amendment provides $150,000 to the Department of Public Works – Architectural,
Engineering and Environmental budget for the building inventory and assessment
program.
I have vetoed this amendment entirely because there are sufficient resources in the
Department of Public Works to continue work on this initiative. My veto of this item
results in a tax levy savings of $150,000.
Veto #15 Transit Zone Fares
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A030
This amendment requires the Milwaukee County Transit System to prepare a zone fare
proposal for Waukesha County residents who use the Milwaukee County transit services
in the event Waukesha County institutes a zone fare for residents of Milwaukee County
who use Waukesha County transit services. Further, the amendment requires the
Milwaukee County Transit System to report its findings back to the Transportation,
Public Works and Transit Committee for Board approval.
I am vetoing this amendment entirely because I believe it runs counter to Milwaukee
County’s need and desire to engage in productive discussions with other Southeastern
Wisconsin counties regarding regional transportation.
Veto #16 AODA Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$600,000]
Amendment 1A074
This amendment provides an additional $600,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health
and Human Services – Behavioral Health Division budget for AODA services in 2008.
I am vetoing this amendment because I cannot support the use of tax levy to replace the
lost Federal funding related to the Access to Recovery grant. It is also critical to note that
the County’s AODA budget still will be nearly $18 million, which is $4.5 million more
than the amount provided prior to receipt of the original ATR grant.

CArcher_Email3016641

Veto #17 Youth Sports Authority Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$200,000]
Amendment 1A003
This amendment provides $200,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health and Human
Services Budget-Delinquency Courts Services Division budget for funding for the Youth
Sports Authority.
I am vetoing this amendment for a tax levy savings of $200,000 because this is not a core
function of County government that should be financed by the property taxpayer. As
noted above, unfortunately, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to properly fund
mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of property tax
levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income Maintenance,
Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health. This unfortunate
reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might otherwise desire to fund
non-mandated human services such as the Youth Sports Authority.
Veto #18 Interim Disability Assistance Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$187,980]
Amendment 1A009
This amendment provides $187,980 in tax levy and 1.0 FTE ESS position for the Interim
Disability Assistance Program administered by the Department of Health and Human
Services.
I have vetoed this amendment because providing bridge funding for persons awaiting
Federal Social Security benefits is not the responsibly of local government, but rather the
responsibility of the Federal Government. As such, these costs should not be borne by
the local property taxpayer. Also, as noted above, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to
properly fund mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of
property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income
Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health. This
unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might otherwise
desire to fund non-mandated human services such as IDAP. This veto reduces the
property tax levy by $187,980.
Veto #19 Safe Alternatives For Youth Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A051
This amendment provides $150,000 tax levy in the Department of Human Services –
Delinquency and Court Services Division budget for implementation of the Safe
Alternatives for Youth Program in 2008 per the provisions of Adopted County Board
Resolution File No. 03-247 which established the Safe Homes (subsequently re-named
the Safe Alternatives for Youth) oversight committee. Under the provisions of this
amendment, the Director of the Department of Health and Human Services is directed to

CArcher_Email3016642

execute a contract in the amount of $12,000 with the Milwaukee Urban League for fiscal
agent services and is authorized to deposit $138,000 in SAY appropriations with the
Milwaukee Urban League as fiscal agent, from which identified activities under the
program will be funded.
I have vetoed this amendment because – similar to other vetoes described above in the
area of Health and Human Services – I cannot support the appropriation of local property
tax dollars for certain non-mandated human services at a time when the burden for local
taxpayers continues to grow to fund mandated human services that are not adequately
funded by the State of Wisconsin. In addition, I do not believe it is a core function of
County government to provide grants for educational, cultural and recreational activities
for disadvantaged youth, and I believe there are many higher priorities for our local
human services dollars. This veto results in a tax levy savings of $150,000.

Veto #20 Wading Pool Hours
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A 065
This amendment requires the Parks Director to staff the Milwaukee County wading pools
at staggered hours to ensure that some wading pools will open at 10:00 a.m. and some
will remain open until 7:00 p.m. during the entire aquatics season. Further, the
amendment requires the Parks Director to report back to the County Board with a 2008
wading pool schedule prior to the opening of the aquatics season.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that wading pools be
staffed to ensure that some wading pools will open at 10:00 a.m. and some will remain
open until 7:00 p.m. during the entire aquatics season because I believe the Parks
Director should maintain the administrative and management flexibility to establish
wading pool hours based on usage, weather conditions and maintenance needs.
I am confident the Parks Director will continue to work with the Board to ensure
appropriate availability of parks resources to County residents. My partial veto retains
the requirement that the Parks Director shall report back to the County Board with a 2008
wading pool schedule prior to the opening of the aquatics season.
need to be sure Scott is ok with partial veto on this one

Veto #21 Parks Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]
Amendment _______

CArcher_Email3016643

Veto# 23: UW-Extension Contract
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$172,533]
Amendment 1A 018
This amendment denies the proposed termination of Milwaukee County’s contract with
the Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin System effective 2008 and restores
funding to the 2007 levy for the UW-Extension by increasing expenditures by $293,613
and increasing revenues by $121,080 for a net tax levy increase of $172,533.
I have exercised my partial veto authority to eliminate the continuation of this contract,
remove the expenditure of $293,613, the revenue of 121,080 and the tax levy of
$172,533. As partially vetoed, Milwaukee County’s contract would terminate with the
Board of regents effective 2008. My partial veto retains the $37,500 for rent and related
lease expenses for the first four months of 2008.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to effect the termination of the contract and the
removal of funding for the UW-Extension contract because I believe that these funds are
better spent on higher priority core County functions.

I have exercised my veto authority as follows:

Veto #1 County Board Salary Increases
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A 077
Amended Section 17.99 General Ordinances of Milwaukee County relating to the salaries
of the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors and the County Executive
This amendment increases personal service expenditures by $29,851 and reduces services
by the same amount in the County Board Office and authorizes an increase in Milwaukee
County Supervisors’ salaries of 4% effective April 1, 2008 to remain at that level for the
duration of the 2008-2012 term.
I have partially vetoed this provision and entirely vetoed the modifications to Ordinance
_____ to avoid reducing the budget for the County Board Office, but to remove the
authorization for the increased pay for County Board Supervisors.
I have vetoed this provision because I do not believe a pay increase is warranted for
Supervisors. Moreover, I do not believe this provision should have been considered as a
last-minute amendment to the budget, but more appropriately should have been advanced
through the Personnel Committee to ensure full public debate of this policy and fiscal
matter.
Veto #2 Workforce Development Reform Task Force
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$125,000]
Amendment1A 072
This amendment authorizes the creation of a taskforce to make recommendations in order
to provide more focus and equitable employment funding in work reform for men,
particularly fathers and males of color, and provides an appropriation of $125,000 to
retain outside consultant assistance.
While I support the creation of the task force and look forward to working with the
County Board Chairman on this initiative, I have partially vetoed this provision to
eliminate the funding for an outside consultant. My partial veto retains the authorization
and creation of the task force as outlined in the amendment but eliminates the $125,000
in funding for consultant services because I believe there are sufficient existing County
resources to support this effort.
Veto #3 Land Sales and Inclusive Housing Fund
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$1,000,000]
Amendment 1B022 & 1CO14

CArcher_Email3016648

This amendment modifies the Land Sales budget to reflect the potential sale of the
County Grounds Northeast Quadrant to UW-Milwaukee and allocates $1.0 million of
land sale revenue and expenditure authority to the Capital Improvements budget for
project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the listing of the sale of the County
Grounds Northeast Quadrant as a potential land sale in 2008, retain $1.0 million of
revenue in the Land Sales budget, but eliminate the reallocation of $1.0 million in land
sale revenue to the Capital Improvement project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund. My
partial veto also removes the authorized expenditure of $1.0 million for the Inclusive
Housing Fund resulting in a levy savings of $1.0 million.
I am concerned about the addition of $1.0 million to the Land Sales budget based on the
sale of the Northeast Quadrant. My concern is not over whether this sale should take
place, as I am very excited about the plans for a UWM School of Engineering on the
County Grounds, and I strongly believe that the sale of this parcel for that purpose is the
right move for the citizens of Milwaukee County. Instead, my concern is whether this
sale can be consummated by the end of 2008. Because one of the biggest obstacles to an
expeditious sale is potential delay by the County Board, the Board’s insertion of this
provision into the Budget allows me to feel more comfortable in retaining this provision.
I would remind Supervisors, however, that they have a responsibility to join me in
aggressively moving this project forward so that we can indeed realize this revenue in
2008.
I am vetoing the provision allocating $1.0 million from the Land Sales budget to the
Capital Improvements budget for project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund. The budget I
presented and ultimately adopted by the Board already includes $1.0 million for the
construction of housing for individuals with mental illness under the auspices of the new
Housing Division in the Department of Health and Human Services. Unlike the Inclusive
Housing Fund, this fund for special needs housing is governed by clear criteria proposed
by my administration and adopted by the County Board, and it is strategically designed to
address significant programmatic concerns in the Behavioral Health Division, including
overcrowding in its acute inpatient units and Psychiatric Crisis Service. Conversely, the
specific purpose of the Inclusive Housing Fund has never been defined and it has not
been determined how this fund is consistent with the core mission and strategic
objectives of Milwaukee County. In light of the recognized need for additional
affordable housing in Milwaukee County, my Recommended Budget did propose
allocating surplus land sales revenue to the Inclusive Housing Fund so that we could
develop a plan for the use of these funds and utilize them if they materialized due to a
surplus. However, in light of our fiscal constraints and the appropriation of $1.0 million
for special needs housing, I cannot justify dedicating an additional $1.0 million of direct
property tax levy for this purpose.

Veto #4: Courts Staffing
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]

CArcher_Email3016649

Amendment _______
The Courts budget I presented to the Board recommended the abolishment of 4.0 FTE
vacant Clerical Assistant 1 positions (two of which were also unfunded in 2007), the
abolishment of 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants and the
abolishment of 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns. This amendment restores and provides
funding for two of the four Clerical Assistant 1 positions, the 2.0 FTE Deputy Court
Clerk Judicial Assistants and the 9.0 Legal Research Interns. Under the amendment, 2.0
FTE Clerical Assistant 1 positions would remain but would be unfunded in 2008.
Finally, this amendment reduces the proposed lump sum salary adjustment for the Courts
by increasing funding for personal services by $167,396.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the authorization and full funding of the 9.0
FTE Legal Research Interns ($411,978) and to retain the authorization for the 2.0 FTE
Clerical Assistant 1 unfunded positions in the Register in Probate Division as approved
by the Board. However, my partial veto restores the abolishment and eliminates the
funding for the 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants and 2.0 FTE
Clerical Assistant 1 positions for a levy savings of $______. Further, by writing down
the reduction in the lump sum salary adjustment to $1, my partial veto will provide a net
salary reduction of $1,400,790 and a levy savings of $167,395.
I have retained the 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns because of the Chief Judge’s
expressed concern about the impact of such a reduction on the operations of the Courts.
However, I continue to believe that abolishing 4.0 FTE vacant support positions will not
jeopardize the operations of the Courts and that the lump sum reduction proposed in my
recommended budget is manageable.

Veto #5: State Funding for Courts System
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$2,000,000]
Amendment 1C009
The final State Budget did not include approximately $2.0 million in additional State aid
for the administration of the State Court System in Milwaukee County as anticipated by
the Courts in their 2008 budget request and in the 2008 Recommended Budget. The
County budget as adopted by the Board did not adjust the projected state aid for the
Courts as reflected in final provisions of the State Budget. As a result, as adopted, the
Courts budget includes approximately $2.0 million in State revenue that will not
materialize in 2008. However, the County Board, under Amendment 1C009,
appropriated an additional $3.0 million to the appropriation for contingencies to “help
partially mitigate State revenues that were not realized upon passage of the 2007-09
State Budget in late October 2007.”
I am partially vetoing the provision related to the Appropriation for Contingencies
(Amendment 1C009) to reduce by $2,000,000 the increase of $3,000,000 provided by the

CArcher_Email3016650

Board. Further, I am partially vetoing the budget to reduce the budgeted revenues for the
Courts by $2,000,000 and reduce authorized expenditures for the Courts by $2,000,000.
I am using my veto authority to adjust the Combined Court Related Operations budget to
reflect the realities of the final State Budget. I do not believe the failure of the State to
adequately fund the State Court System should result in shifting these costs to Milwaukee
County property taxpayers. My intent in reducing the increase to the contingency fund
adopted by the Board by $2.0 million is to prevent the shift of these costs to the tax levy,
and I hope the County Board will join me in 2008 in opposing any contingency fund
request to address this shortfall in State support to the Courts. The fiscal impact of this
veto is a reduction in tax levy of $2.0 million, a reduction in state aid to the Courts of
$2.0 million and a corresponding reduction in Court expenditures by $2.0 million.
I extend to the Chief Judge and County Board Chairman an invitation to continue
working with me to convince the Governor and the State Legislature to fulfill their
responsibility to adequately fund the State Courts, and my administration also stands
ready to assist the Chief Judge in developing a plan for making the operational
adjustments that will be required in the absence of additional state support.

Veto #6: Child Support Enforcement Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]
Amendment 1A014
This amendment restores funding for 1.0 FTE Child Support Coordinator, 2.5 FTE Legal
Counsel Child Support 1 positions and 3.0 FTE Paralegal positions in the Department of
Child Support Enforcement.
I have vetoed this provision in its entirety because I will not support the use of property
tax levy to replace lost federal funding for Child Support Enforcement.
Veto #7: County Clerk Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$84,714]
Amendment 1A016
This amendment provides $84,714 in tax levy and restores the Deputy County Clerk
position in the County Clerk’s Office.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of Deputy County Clerk.
However, I have vetoed the additional property tax levy provided to the County Clerk’s
Office through this amendment for a levy savings of $84,714. In light of the significant
fiscal challenges facing all County departments, it is necessary for the County Clerk
implement strategies to live within the personal services allocation provided in my
Recommended Budget.

Veto #8 Register of Deeds Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$198,694]
Amendment 1A041
This amendment denies the abolishment of three positions, including one position each of
Deputy Register of Deeds, Clerical Assistant 1 and Office Support Assistant 2, the cost of
which is completely offset by increased real estate fee revenue.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of the Deputy Register of
Deeds, abolish the Clerical Assistant 1 position, abolish the Office Support Assistant 2
position and reduce the expenditures of the Register of Deeds by $198,694 for a levy
savings of $198,694. In light of the significant fiscal challenges facing all County
departments, it is necessary for the Register of Deeds to implement strategies to live
within the personal services allocation provided in my Recommended Budget.

Veto #9: Farm and Fish Hatchery
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A012
The budget I presented to the Board included the closure of the House of Correction
Farm and Fish Hatchery for a levy savings of $256,384. I have consistently proposed the
closure of the Farm and Fish Hatchery because its operation is not a core county function
and because it diverts valuable resources away from activities supporting staff and inmate
safety at the House of Correction. The above referenced amendment restores the
operation of the Farm and Fish Hatchery.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to restore my intent to close the Farm and Fish
Hatchery in 2008.
Veto #10 House of Correction Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$342,618]
Amendment 1A049
This amendment restores $342,618 to the House of Correction budget for contractual
services expenditures related to AODA and job development/assessment programs
serving inmates at the Community Correctional Center (CCC).
I am vetoing this amendment in its entirety for a levy savings of $342,618. In light of the
County’s budget constraints and the pressure of unfunded and underfunded State and
Federal mandates, we must dedicate our public safety dollars to core correctional
services. Also, while this veto will eliminate contractual services for AODA and job
development/assessment for Huber inmates, the budget still includes my proposal to fund
a full-time Community Services Coordinator to assist in matching offenders with existing
programs offered in the community.

Veto #11 Electronic Monitoring Monthly Briefings
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A048
This amendment requires the County Executive and the Superintendent of the House of
Correction to provide monthly briefings through October 2008 for the Committee on
Judiciary, Safety and General Services on the ongoing development and implementation
of the expanded home detention program.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that the County
Executive provide briefings to the Committee on the Judiciary, Safety and General
Services because the County Executive is an elected Constitutional Officer not subject to
the oversight of the County Board or County Board committees.
Veto #12 Funding for 211 Phone Line
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$300,000]
Amendment 1A006
Amendment 1A056
These amendments provide an additional $200,000 in tax levy to the Department of
Health and Human Services and $100,000 in tax levy to the Department of Health and
Human Services Behavioral Health Division for the 211 phone line.
I am vetoing these amendments for a tax levy savings of $300,000 to reduce the tax
burden on Milwaukee County citizens. Unfortunately, the refusal of the State of
Wisconsin to properly fund mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions
of dollars of property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as
Income Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health.
This unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might
otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human services such as the 211 line. It is also
important to recognize that the budget still will appropriate $200,000 for the 211 line per
my original recommendation, which is a substantial contribution to this function.
Veto #13 Behavioral Health Division Purchase of Services Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$302,016]
Amendment 1A001
This amendment provides an additional $302,016 in tax levy to the Department of Health
and Human Services-Behavioral Health Division for purchase of services contracts with
the AIDS Resource Center and Fighting Back, Inc. for AODA prevention activities.
As noted above, unfortunately, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to properly fund
mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of property tax
levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income Maintenance,
Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health. This unfortunate

CArcher_Email3016653

reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might otherwise desire to fund
non-mandated human services such as AODA prevention and education activities. It is
also important to recognize that the budget still will appropriate more than $500,000 for
these contracts per my original recommendation, which is a substantial contribution to
this function.
Veto #14 Architectural and Engineering Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A039
This amendment provides $150,000 to the Department of Public Works – Architectural,
Engineering and Environmental budget for the building inventory and assessment
program.
I have vetoed this amendment entirely because there are sufficient resources in the
Department of Public Works to continue work on this initiative. My veto of this item
results in a tax levy savings of $150,000.
Veto #15 Transit Zone Fares
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A030
This amendment requires the Milwaukee County Transit System to prepare a zone fare
proposal for Waukesha County residents who use the Milwaukee County transit services
in the event Waukesha County institutes a zone fare for residents of Milwaukee County
who use Waukesha County transit services. Further, the amendment requires the
Milwaukee County Transit System to report its findings back to the Transportation,
Public Works and Transit Committee for Board approval.
I am vetoing this amendment entirely because I believe it runs counter to Milwaukee
County’s need and desire to engage in productive discussions with other Southeastern
Wisconsin counties regarding regional transportation.
Veto #16 AODA Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$600,000]
Amendment 1A074
This amendment provides an additional $600,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health
and Human Services – Behavioral Health Division budget for AODA services in 2008.
I am vetoing this amendment because I cannot support the use of tax levy to replace the
lost Federal funding related to the Access to Recovery grant. It is also critical to note that
the County’s AODA budget still will be nearly $18 million, which is $4.5 million more
than the amount provided prior to receipt of the original ATR grant.

CArcher_Email3016654

Veto #17 Youth Sports Authority Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$200,000]
Amendment 1A003
This amendment provides $200,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health and Human
Services Budget-Delinquency Courts Services Division budget for funding for the Youth
Sports Authority.
I am vetoing this amendment for a tax levy savings of $200,000 because this is not a core
function of County government that should be financed by the property taxpayer. As
noted above, unfortunately, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to properly fund
mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of property tax
levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income Maintenance,
Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health. This unfortunate
reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might otherwise desire to fund
non-mandated human services such as the Youth Sports Authority.
Veto #18 Interim Disability Assistance Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$187,980]
Amendment 1A009
This amendment provides $187,980 in tax levy and 1.0 FTE ESS position for the Interim
Disability Assistance Program administered by the Department of Health and Human
Services.
I have vetoed this amendment because providing bridge funding for persons awaiting
Federal Social Security benefits is not the responsibly of local government, but rather the
responsibility of the Federal Government. As such, these costs should not be borne by
the local property taxpayer. Also, as noted above, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to
properly fund mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of
property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income
Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health. This
unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might otherwise
desire to fund non-mandated human services such as IDAP. This veto reduces the
property tax levy by $187,980.
Veto #19 Safe Alternatives For Youth Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A051
This amendment provides $150,000 tax levy in the Department of Human Services –
Delinquency and Court Services Division budget for implementation of the Safe
Alternatives for Youth Program in 2008 per the provisions of Adopted County Board
Resolution File No. 03-247 which established the Safe Homes (subsequently re-named
the Safe Alternatives for Youth) oversight committee. Under the provisions of this
amendment, the Director of the Department of Health and Human Services is directed to

CArcher_Email3016655

execute a contract in the amount of $12,000 with the Milwaukee Urban League for fiscal
agent services and is authorized to deposit $138,000 in SAY appropriations with the
Milwaukee Urban League as fiscal agent, from which identified activities under the
program will be funded.
I have vetoed this amendment because – similar to other vetoes described above in the
area of Health and Human Services – I cannot support the appropriation of local property
tax dollars for certain non-mandated human services at a time when the burden for local
taxpayers continues to grow to fund mandated human services that are not adequately
funded by the State of Wisconsin. In addition, I do not believe it is a core function of
County government to provide grants for educational, cultural and recreational activities
for disadvantaged youth, and I believe there are many higher priorities for our local
human services dollars. This veto results in a tax levy savings of $150,000.

Veto #20 Wading Pool Hours
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A 065
This amendment requires the Parks Director to staff the Milwaukee County wading pools
at staggered hours to ensure that some wading pools will open at 10:00 a.m. and some
will remain open until 7:00 p.m. during the entire aquatics season. Further, the
amendment requires the Parks Director to report back to the County Board with a 2008
wading pool schedule prior to the opening of the aquatics season.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that wading pools be
staffed to ensure that some wading pools will open at 10:00 a.m. and some will remain
open until 7:00 p.m. during the entire aquatics season because I believe the Parks
Director should maintain the administrative and management flexibility to establish
wading pool hours based on usage, weather conditions and maintenance needs.
I am confident the Parks Director will continue to work with the Board to ensure
appropriate availability of parks resources to County residents. My partial veto retains
the requirement that the Parks Director shall report back to the County Board with a 2008
wading pool schedule prior to the opening of the aquatics season.
need to be sure Scott is ok with partial veto on this one

Veto #21 Parks Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]
Amendment _______

Veto# 23: UW-Extension Contract
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$172,533]
Amendment 1A 018
This amendment denies the proposed termination of Milwaukee County’s contract with
the Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin System effective 2008 and restores
funding to the 2007 levy for the UW-Extension by increasing expenditures by $293,613
and increasing revenues by $121,080 for a net tax levy increase of $172,533.
I have exercised my partial veto authority to eliminate the continuation of this contract,
remove the expenditure of $293,613, the revenue of 121,080 and the tax levy of
$172,533. As partially vetoed, Milwaukee County’s contract would terminate with the
Board of regents effective 2008. My partial veto retains the $37,500 for rent and related
lease expenses for the first four months of 2008.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to effect the termination of the contract and the
removal of funding for the UW-Extension contract because I believe that these funds are
better spent on higher priority core County functions.

Please take a look at these.
Keep in mind the substance of these is governed by the Constitutional
requirements for them to be valid. Each message to be valid must include four
components: 1) what the provision does; 2) what is being struck; 3) the impact
of the strike (i.e. what remains) and 4) the reason for the strike. These are
legal documents that if challenged must be sustainable in Court they must be
technically consistent with the Constitutional requirements.
As you will note, I still have a few to finish including the Parks which will

I have exercised my veto authority as follows:

Veto #1 County Board Salary Increases
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A 077
Amended Section 17.99 General Ordinances of Milwaukee County relating to the salaries
of the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors and the County Executive
This amendment increases personal service expenditures by $29,851 and reduces services
by the same amount in the County Board Office and authorizes an increase in Milwaukee
County Supervisors’ salaries of 4% effective April 1, 2008 to remain at that level for the
duration of the 2008-2012 term.
I have partially vetoed this provision and entirely vetoed the modifications to Ordinance
_____ to avoid reducing the budget for the County Board Office, but to remove the
authorization for the increased pay for County Board Supervisors.
I have vetoed this provision because I do not believe a pay increase is warranted for
Supervisors. Moreover, I do not believe this provision should have been considered as a
last-minute amendment to the budget, but more appropriately should have been advanced
through the Personnel Committee to ensure full public debate of this policy and fiscal
matter.
Veto #2 Workforce Development Reform Task Force
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$125,000]
Amendment1A 072
This amendment authorizes the creation of a taskforce to make recommendations in order
to provide more focus and equitable employment funding in work reform for men,
particularly fathers and males of color, and provides an appropriation of $125,000 to
retain outside consultant assistance.
While I support the creation of the task force and look forward to working with the
County Board Chairman on this initiative, I have partially vetoed this provision to
eliminate the funding for an outside consultant. My partial veto retains the authorization
and creation of the task force as outlined in the amendment but eliminates the $125,000
in funding for consultant services because I believe there are sufficient existing County
resources to support this effort.
Veto #3 Land Sales and Inclusive Housing Fund
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$1,000,000]
Amendment 1B022 & 1CO14

CArcher_Email3016662

This amendment modifies the Land Sales budget to reflect the potential sale of the
County Grounds Northeast Quadrant to UW-Milwaukee and allocates $1.0 million of
land sale revenue and expenditure authority to the Capital Improvements budget for
project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the listing of the sale of the County
Grounds Northeast Quadrant as a potential land sale in 2008, retain $1.0 million of
revenue in the Land Sales budget, but eliminate the reallocation of $1.0 million in land
sale revenue to the Capital Improvement project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund. My
partial veto also removes the authorized expenditure of $1.0 million for the Inclusive
Housing Fund resulting in a levy savings of $1.0 million.
I am concerned about the addition of $1.0 million to the Land Sales budget based on the
sale of the Northeast Quadrant. My concern is not over whether this sale should take
place, as I am very excited about the plans for a UWM School of Engineering on the
County Grounds, and I strongly believe that the sale of this parcel for that purpose is the
right move for the citizens of Milwaukee County. Instead, my concern is whether this
sale can be consummated by the end of 2008. Because one of the biggest obstacles to an
expeditious sale is potential delay by the County Board, the Board’s insertion of this
provision into the Budget allows me to feel more comfortable in retaining this provision.
I would remind Supervisors, however, that they have a responsibility to join me in
aggressively moving this project forward so that we can indeed realize this revenue in
2008.
I am vetoing the provision allocating $1.0 million from the Land Sales budget to the
Capital Improvements budget for project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund. The budget I
presented and ultimately adopted by the Board already includes $1.0 million for the
construction of housing for individuals with mental illness under the auspices of the new
Housing Division in the Department of Health and Human Services. Unlike the Inclusive
Housing Fund, this fund for special needs housing is governed by clear criteria proposed
by my administration and adopted by the County Board, and it is strategically designed to
address significant programmatic concerns in the Behavioral Health Division, including
overcrowding in its acute inpatient units and Psychiatric Crisis Service. Conversely, the
specific purpose of the Inclusive Housing Fund has never been defined and it has not
been determined how this fund is consistent with the core mission and strategic
objectives of Milwaukee County. In light of the recognized need for additional
affordable housing in Milwaukee County, my Recommended Budget did propose
allocating surplus land sales revenue to the Inclusive Housing Fund so that we could
develop a plan for the use of these funds and utilize them if they materialized due to a
surplus. However, in light of our fiscal constraints and the appropriation of $1.0 million
for special needs housing, I cannot justify dedicating an additional $1.0 million of direct
property tax levy for this purpose.

Veto #4: Courts Staffing
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]

CArcher_Email3016663

Amendment _______
The Courts budget I presented to the Board recommended the abolishment of 4.0 FTE
vacant Clerical Assistant 1 positions (two of which were also unfunded in 2007), the
abolishment of 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants and the
abolishment of 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns. This amendment restores and provides
funding for two of the four Clerical Assistant 1 positions, the 2.0 FTE Deputy Court
Clerk Judicial Assistants and the 9.0 Legal Research Interns. Under the amendment, 2.0
FTE Clerical Assistant 1 positions would remain but would be unfunded in 2008.
Finally, this amendment reduces the proposed lump sum salary adjustment for the Courts
by increasing funding for personal services by $167,396.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the authorization and full funding of the 9.0
FTE Legal Research Interns ($411,978) and to retain the authorization for the 2.0 FTE
Clerical Assistant 1 unfunded positions in the Register in Probate Division as approved
by the Board. However, my partial veto restores the abolishment and eliminates the
funding for the 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants and 2.0 FTE
Clerical Assistant 1 positions for a levy savings of $______. Further, by writing down
the reduction in the lump sum salary adjustment to $1, my partial veto will provide a net
salary reduction of $1,400,790 and a levy savings of $167,395.
I have retained the 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns because of the Chief Judge’s
expressed concern about the impact of such a reduction on the operations of the Courts.
However, I continue to believe that abolishing 4.0 FTE vacant support positions will not
jeopardize the operations of the Courts and that the lump sum reduction proposed in my
recommended budget is manageable.

Veto #5: State Funding for Courts System
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$2,000,000]
Amendment 1C009
The final State Budget did not include approximately $2.0 million in additional State aid
for the administration of the State Court System in Milwaukee County as anticipated by
the Courts in their 2008 budget request and in the 2008 Recommended Budget. The
County budget as adopted by the Board did not adjust the projected state aid for the
Courts as reflected in final provisions of the State Budget. As a result, as adopted, the
Courts budget includes approximately $2.0 million in State revenue that will not
materialize in 2008. However, the County Board, under Amendment 1C009,
appropriated an additional $3.0 million to the appropriation for contingencies to “help
partially mitigate State revenues that were not realized upon passage of the 2007-09
State Budget in late October 2007.”
I am partially vetoing the provision related to the Appropriation for Contingencies
(Amendment 1C009) to reduce by $2,000,000 the increase of $3,000,000 provided by the

CArcher_Email3016664

Board. Further, I am partially vetoing the budget to reduce the budgeted revenues for the
Courts by $2,000,000 and reduce authorized expenditures for the Courts by $2,000,000.
I am using my veto authority to adjust the Combined Court Related Operations budget to
reflect the realities of the final State Budget. I do not believe the failure of the State to
adequately fund the State Court System should result in shifting these costs to Milwaukee
County property taxpayers. My intent in reducing the increase to the contingency fund
adopted by the Board by $2.0 million is to prevent the shift of these costs to the tax levy,
and I hope the County Board will join me in 2008 in opposing any contingency fund
request to address this shortfall in State support to the Courts. The fiscal impact of this
veto is a reduction in tax levy of $2.0 million, a reduction in state aid to the Courts of
$2.0 million and a corresponding reduction in Court expenditures by $2.0 million.
I extend to the Chief Judge and County Board Chairman an invitation to continue
working with me to convince the Governor and the State Legislature to fulfill their
responsibility to adequately fund the State Courts, and my administration also stands
ready to assist the Chief Judge in developing a plan for making the operational
adjustments that will be required in the absence of additional state support.

Veto #6: Child Support Enforcement Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]
Amendment 1A014
This amendment restores funding for 1.0 FTE Child Support Coordinator, 2.5 FTE Legal
Counsel Child Support 1 positions and 3.0 FTE Paralegal positions in the Department of
Child Support Enforcement.
I have vetoed this provision in its entirety because I will not support the use of property
tax levy to replace lost federal funding for Child Support Enforcement.
Veto #7: County Clerk Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$84,714]
Amendment 1A016
This amendment provides $84,714 in tax levy and restores the Deputy County Clerk
position in the County Clerk’s Office.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of Deputy County Clerk.
However, I have vetoed the additional property tax levy provided to the County Clerk’s
Office through this amendment for a levy savings of $84,714. In light of the significant
fiscal challenges facing all County departments, it is necessary for the County Clerk
implement strategies to live within the personal services allocation provided in my
Recommended Budget.

CArcher_Email3016665

Veto #8 Register of Deeds Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$198,694]
Amendment 1A041
This amendment denies the abolishment of three positions, including one position each of
Deputy Register of Deeds, Clerical Assistant 1 and Office Support Assistant 2, the cost of
which is completely offset by increased real estate fee revenue.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of the Deputy Register of
Deeds, abolish the Clerical Assistant 1 position, abolish the Office Support Assistant 2
position and reduce the expenditures of the Register of Deeds by $198,694 for a levy
savings of $198,694. In light of the significant fiscal challenges facing all County
departments, it is necessary for the Register of Deeds to implement strategies to live
within the personal services allocation provided in my Recommended Budget.

Veto #9: Farm and Fish Hatchery
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A012
The budget I presented to the Board included the closure of the House of Correction
Farm and Fish Hatchery for a levy savings of $256,384. I have consistently proposed the
closure of the Farm and Fish Hatchery because its operation is not a core county function
and because it diverts valuable resources away from activities supporting staff and inmate
safety at the House of Correction. The above referenced amendment restores the
operation of the Farm and Fish Hatchery.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to restore my intent to close the Farm and Fish
Hatchery in 2008.
Veto #10 House of Correction Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$342,618]
Amendment 1A049
This amendment restores $342,618 to the House of Correction budget for contractual
services expenditures related to AODA and job development/assessment programs
serving inmates at the Community Correctional Center (CCC).
I am vetoing this amendment in its entirety for a levy savings of $342,618. In light of the
County’s budget constraints and the pressure of unfunded and underfunded State and
Federal mandates, we must dedicate our public safety dollars to core correctional
services. Also, while this veto will eliminate contractual services for AODA and job
development/assessment for Huber inmates, the budget still includes my proposal to fund
a full-time Community Services Coordinator to assist in matching offenders with existing
programs offered in the community.

CArcher_Email3016666

Veto #11 Electronic Monitoring Monthly Briefings
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A048
This amendment requires the County Executive and the Superintendent of the House of
Correction to provide monthly briefings through October 2008 for the Committee on
Judiciary, Safety and General Services on the ongoing development and implementation
of the expanded home detention program.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that the County
Executive provide briefings to the Committee on the Judiciary, Safety and General
Services because the County Executive is an elected Constitutional Officer not subject to
the oversight of the County Board or County Board committees.
Veto #12 Funding for 211 Phone Line
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$300,000]
Amendment 1A006
Amendment 1A056
These amendments provide an additional $200,000 in tax levy to the Department of
Health and Human Services and $100,000 in tax levy to the Department of Health and
Human Services Behavioral Health Division for the 211 phone line.
I am vetoing these amendments for a tax levy savings of $300,000 to reduce the tax
burden on Milwaukee County citizens. Unfortunately, the refusal of the State of
Wisconsin to properly fund mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions
of dollars of property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as
Income Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health.
This unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might
otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human services such as the 211 line. It is also
important to recognize that the budget still will appropriate $200,000 for the 211 line per
my original recommendation, which is a substantial contribution to this function.
Veto #13 Behavioral Health Division Purchase of Services Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$302,016]
Amendment 1A001
This amendment provides an additional $302,016 in tax levy to the Department of Health
and Human Services-Behavioral Health Division for purchase of services contracts with
the AIDS Resource Center and Fighting Back, Inc. for AODA prevention activities.
As noted above, unfortunately, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to properly fund
mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of property tax
levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income Maintenance,
Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health. This unfortunate

reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might otherwise desire to fund
non-mandated human services such as AODA prevention and education activities. It is
also important to recognize that the budget still will appropriate more than $500,000 for
these contracts per my original recommendation, which is a substantial contribution to
this function.
Veto #14 Architectural and Engineering Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A039
This amendment provides $150,000 to the Department of Public Works – Architectural,
Engineering and Environmental budget for the building inventory and assessment
program.
I have vetoed this amendment entirely because there are sufficient resources in the
Department of Public Works to continue work on this initiative. My veto of this item
results in a tax levy savings of $150,000.
Veto #15 Transit Zone Fares
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A030
This amendment requires the Milwaukee County Transit System to prepare a zone fare
proposal for Waukesha County residents who use the Milwaukee County transit services
in the event Waukesha County institutes a zone fare for residents of Milwaukee County
who use Waukesha County transit services. Further, the amendment requires the
Milwaukee County Transit System to report its findings back to the Transportation,
Public Works and Transit Committee for Board approval.
I am vetoing this amendment entirely because I believe it runs counter to Milwaukee
County’s need and desire to engage in productive discussions with other Southeastern
Wisconsin counties regarding regional transportation.
Veto #16 AODA Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$600,000]
Amendment 1A074
This amendment provides an additional $600,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health
and Human Services – Behavioral Health Division budget for AODA services in 2008.
I am vetoing this amendment because I cannot support the use of tax levy to replace the
lost Federal funding related to the Access to Recovery grant. It is also critical to note that
the County’s AODA budget still will be nearly $18 million, which is $4.5 million more
than the amount provided prior to receipt of the original ATR grant.

Veto #17 Youth Sports Authority Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$200,000]
Amendment 1A003
This amendment provides $200,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health and Human
Services Budget-Delinquency Courts Services Division budget for funding for the Youth
Sports Authority.
I am vetoing this amendment for a tax levy savings of $200,000 because this is not a core
function of County government that should be financed by the property taxpayer. As
noted above, unfortunately, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to properly fund
mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of property tax
levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income Maintenance,
Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health. This unfortunate
reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might otherwise desire to fund
non-mandated human services such as the Youth Sports Authority.
Veto #18 Interim Disability Assistance Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$187,980]
Amendment 1A009
This amendment provides $187,980 in tax levy and 1.0 FTE ESS position for the Interim
Disability Assistance Program administered by the Department of Health and Human
Services.
I have vetoed this amendment because providing bridge funding for persons awaiting
Federal Social Security benefits is not the responsibly of local government, but rather the
responsibility of the Federal Government. As such, these costs should not be borne by
the local property taxpayer. Also, as noted above, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to
properly fund mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of
property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income
Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health. This
unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might otherwise
desire to fund non-mandated human services such as IDAP. This veto reduces the
property tax levy by $187,980.
Veto #19 Safe Alternatives For Youth Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A051
This amendment provides $150,000 tax levy in the Department of Human Services –
Delinquency and Court Services Division budget for implementation of the Safe
Alternatives for Youth Program in 2008 per the provisions of Adopted County Board
Resolution File No. 03-247 which established the Safe Homes (subsequently re-named
the Safe Alternatives for Youth) oversight committee. Under the provisions of this
amendment, the Director of the Department of Health and Human Services is directed to

CArcher_Email3016669

execute a contract in the amount of $12,000 with the Milwaukee Urban League for fiscal
agent services and is authorized to deposit $138,000 in SAY appropriations with the
Milwaukee Urban League as fiscal agent, from which identified activities under the
program will be funded.
I have vetoed this amendment because – similar to other vetoes described above in the
area of Health and Human Services – I cannot support the appropriation of local property
tax dollars for certain non-mandated human services at a time when the burden for local
taxpayers continues to grow to fund mandated human services that are not adequately
funded by the State of Wisconsin. In addition, I do not believe it is a core function of
County government to provide grants for educational, cultural and recreational activities
for disadvantaged youth, and I believe there are many higher priorities for our local
human services dollars. This veto results in a tax levy savings of $150,000.

Veto #20 Wading Pool Hours
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A 065
This amendment requires the Parks Director to staff the Milwaukee County wading pools
at staggered hours to ensure that some wading pools will open at 10:00 a.m. and some
will remain open until 7:00 p.m. during the entire aquatics season. Further, the
amendment requires the Parks Director to report back to the County Board with a 2008
wading pool schedule prior to the opening of the aquatics season.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that wading pools be
staffed to ensure that some wading pools will open at 10:00 a.m. and some will remain
open until 7:00 p.m. during the entire aquatics season because I believe the Parks
Director should maintain the administrative and management flexibility to establish
wading pool hours based on usage, weather conditions and maintenance needs.
I am confident the Parks Director will continue to work with the Board to ensure
appropriate availability of parks resources to County residents. My partial veto retains
the requirement that the Parks Director shall report back to the County Board with a 2008
wading pool schedule prior to the opening of the aquatics season.
need to be sure Scott is ok with partial veto on this one

Veto #21 Parks Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]
Amendment _______

CArcher_Email3016670

Veto# 23: UW-Extension Contract
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$172,533]
Amendment 1A 018
This amendment denies the proposed termination of Milwaukee County’s contract with
the Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin System effective 2008 and restores
funding to the 2007 levy for the UW-Extension by increasing expenditures by $293,613
and increasing revenues by $121,080 for a net tax levy increase of $172,533.
I have exercised my partial veto authority to eliminate the continuation of this contract,
remove the expenditure of $293,613, the revenue of 121,080 and the tax levy of
$172,533. As partially vetoed, Milwaukee County’s contract would terminate with the
Board of regents effective 2008. My partial veto retains the $37,500 for rent and related
lease expenses for the first four months of 2008.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to effect the termination of the contract and the
removal of funding for the UW-Extension contract because I believe that these funds are
better spent on higher priority core County functions.

Veto #23 Capital Budget Marcus Center
[Levy Change from Board Action: $_______]

Veto #21 Parks Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$2,851,979]
Amendment 1A066
The 2008 Parks Department budget I presented to the Board included the restructuring of
park maintenance staff that would have yielded a $_______ property tax savings and
increased the hour available for park maintenance by 20,000 hours per year. This was
accomplished by abolishing 81.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker positions, 31.0 FTE of
which are vacant, providing additional funding for funding of $598,379 for seasonal
maintenance staff, creating 14.0 FTE Forestry Worker DOT positions and 6.0 FTE Park
Maintenance Worker 2 In-Charge positions and over $1 million in the capital budget for
the purchase of labor-efficient capital equipment.
In addition, my recommended budget proposed abolishing 11.54 FTE positions that were
either vacant or proposed for abolishment by the Parks Department. Positions proposed
for abolishment included 3.0 FTE vacant Office Assistant 3 positions, 1.0 FTE Special
Events Coordinator position, .50 FTE Special Events Coordinator HR position, 3.0
vacant FTE Head Lifeguard positions, and 1.04 FTE Park Intern – Athletics positions.
Finally my budget recommendations included the abolishment of 1.0 FTE Community
Center Manager position and 2.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker Assistant positions
leaving 1.0 FTE Community Center Manager position and 2.0 FTE Supervisor positions.
The above referenced amendment restored funding and authorization for 50.0 FTE Park
Maintenance Worker positions , eliminated $598,379 for seasonal maintenance staff,
restored authorization for 16.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker positions but unfunds
them and maintains the creation and funding of 14.0 FTE Forestry Worker DOT positions
and the 6.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker In-Charge positions as originally proposed.
Further, the above noted amendment restores position authorization, but unfunds 2.0 FTE
Park Maintenance Worker Assistant positions, 1.0 FTE Special Events Coordinator
position and, 50 FTE Special Events Coordinator HR. While the amendment notes that
these are unfunded, the amendment provides $209,713 in salary, social security and
active fringe benefit funding related to these positions.
Lastly, the amendment restores funding and position authorization for 1.0 Community
Center Manager position and restores but unfunds 2.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker
Assistant positions related to Community Center operations.
The amendment provides an additional $2,752,869 in tax levy support. Lastly, the
amendment increases repair and maintenance funding from the $60,473 I proposed to
$105,415.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to restore as closely as possible the original
proposal submitted with my 2008 Recommended Budget. Specifically, my veto retains
the abolishment of 50.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker positions and removes $______
funding for these positions. Further, through my partial veto, I have retained 16.0 FTE

CArcher_Email3016674

unfunded Park Maintenance Worker positions for no fiscal impact as proposed by the
Board. Further, while I have maintained the provisions of Amendment 1A058 that
provides an additional $648,021 in operating capital outlay for the Parks Department, I
have vetoed the additional repair and maintenance funds provided in this amendment and
written down the lower amount of $60,473 as I originally proposed. Finally, my partial
veto retains $598,379 for seasonal park workers by leaving sufficient funds in the
personal services account to cover additional seasonal staff.
In addition to the above, my partial veto restores the abolishment and removes funding
for 1.0 FTE Community Center Manager position. Lastly, while the amendment
indicates 2.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker Assistant positions, 1.0 FTE Special Events
Coordinator position and .50 FTE Special Events Coordinator HR position are restored as
unfunded, the amendment provides $209,713 in funding related to these positions. I
partially vetoed this amendment to remove the funding of $209,713 to reflect the stated
intent of the amendment.
To reflect the above, I have written down the Personal Services expenditures without
fringe benefits to $18, 508,535.

I have exercised my veto authority as follows:

Veto #1 County Board Salary Increases
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A 077
Amended Section 17.99 General Ordinances of Milwaukee County relating to the salaries
of the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors and the County Executive
This amendment increases personal service expenditures by $29,851 and reduces
services by the same amount in the County Board Office and authorizes an
increase in Milwaukee County Supervisors’ salaries of 4% effective April 1, 2008
to remain at that level for the duration of the 2008-2012 term.
I have partially vetoed this provision and entirely vetoed the modifications to
Ordinance 17.99 to avoid reducing the budget for the County Board Office, but to
remove the authorization for the increased pay for County Board Supervisors.
I have vetoed this provision because I do not believe this provision should have
been considered as a last-minute amendment to the budget, but more
appropriately should have been advanced through the Personnel Committee to
ensure full public debate of this policy and fiscal matter.

Veto #2 Workforce Development Reform Consultant
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$100,000]
Amendment1A 072
This amendment authorizes the creation of a task force to make recommendations
in order to provide more focus and equitable employment funding in work reform
for men, particularly fathers and males of color, and provides an appropriation of
$125,000 to retain outside consultant assistance.
While I support the creation of the task force and look forward to working with
the County Board Chairman on this initiative, I have partially vetoed this
provision to reduce the funding provided for an outside consultant to $25,000.
My partial veto retains the authorization and creation of the task force as outlined
in the amendment and provides $25,000 in funding for consultant services. I
believe this level of funding is sufficient to accomplish the goals of the task force.

Veto #3 Land Sales and Inclusive Housing Fund
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$1,000,000]
Amendment 1B022 & 1CO14

CArcher_Email3016677

This amendment modifies the Land Sales budget to reflect the potential sale of the
County Grounds Northeast Quadrant to UW-Milwaukee and allocates $1.0
million of land sale revenue and expenditure authority to the Capital
Improvements budget for project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the listing of the sale of the County
Grounds Northeast Quadrant as a potential land sale in 2008, retain $1.0 million
of revenue in the Land Sales budget, but eliminate the reallocation of $1.0 million
in land sale revenue to the Capital Improvement project WO043-Inclusive
Housing Fund. My partial veto also removes the authorized expenditure of $1.0
million for the Inclusive Housing Fund resulting in a levy savings of $1.0 million.
I am concerned about the addition of $1.0 million to the Land Sales budget based
on the sale of the Northeast Quadrant. My concern is not over whether this sale
should take place, as I am very excited about the plans for a UWM School of
Engineering on the County Grounds, and I strongly believe that the sale of this
parcel for that purpose is the right move for the citizens of Milwaukee County.
Instead, my concern is whether this sale can be consummated by the end of 2008.
Because one of the biggest obstacles to an expeditious sale is potential delay by
the County Board, the Board’s insertion of this provision into the Budget allows
me to feel more comfortable in retaining this provision. I would remind
Supervisors, however, that they have a responsibility to join me in aggressively
moving this project forward so that we can indeed realize this revenue in 2008.
I am vetoing the provision allocating $1.0 million from the Land Sales budget to
the Capital Improvements budget for project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund.
The budget I presented and ultimately adopted by the Board already includes $1.0
million for the construction of housing for individuals with mental illness under
the auspices of the new Housing Division in the Department of Health and
Human Services. Unlike the Inclusive Housing Fund, this fund for special needs
housing is governed by clear criteria proposed by my administration and adopted
by the County Board, and it is strategically designed to address significant
programmatic concerns in the Behavioral Health Division, including
overcrowding in its acute inpatient units and Psychiatric Crisis Service.
Conversely, the specific purpose of the Inclusive Housing Fund has never been
defined and it has not been determined how this fund is consistent with the core
mission and strategic objectives of Milwaukee County. In light of the recognized
need for additional affordable housing in Milwaukee County, my Recommended
Budget did propose allocating surplus land sales revenue to the Inclusive Housing
Fund so that we could develop a plan for the use of these funds and utilize them if
they materialized due to a surplus. However, in light of our fiscal constraints and
the appropriation of $1.0 million for special needs housing, I cannot justify
dedicating an additional $1.0 million of direct property tax levy for this purpose.

Veto #4: Courts Staffing
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$438,907]
Amendment 1A045
The Courts budget I presented to the Board recommended the abolishment of 4.0
FTE vacant Clerical Assistant 1 positions (two of which were also unfunded in
2007), the abolishment of 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants
and the abolishment of 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns. This amendment restores
and provides funding for two of the four Clerical Assistant 1 positions, the 2.0
FTE Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants and the 9.0 Legal Research Interns.
Under the amendment, 2.0 FTE Clerical Assistant 1 positions would remain but
would be unfunded in 2008. Finally, this amendment reduces the proposed lump
sum salary adjustment for the Courts by increasing funding for personal services
by $167,396. In total, this amendment provides an additional $850,885 in tax
levy for the above noted restorations.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the authorization and full funding
of the 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns ($411,977) and to retain the authorization
for the 2.0 FTE Clerical Assistant 1 unfunded positions in the Register in Probate
Division as approved by the Board. However, my partial veto restores the
abolishment and eliminates the funding for the 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court
Clerk Judicial Assistants and 2.0 FTE Clerical Assistant 1 positions for a levy
savings of $271,512. Further, by writing down the reduction in the lump sum
salary adjustment by $1, my partial veto will restore a lump sum reduction of
$1,400,790 and a levy savings of $167,395.
I have retained the 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns because of the Chief Judge’s
expressed concern about the impact of such a reduction on the operations of the
Courts. However, I continue to believe that abolishing 4.0 FTE vacant support
positions will not jeopardize the operations of the Courts and that the lump sum
reduction proposed in my recommended budget is manageable.

Veto #5: State Funding for Courts System
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$2,000,000]
Amendment 1C009
The final State Budget did not include approximately $2.0 million in additional
State aid for the administration of the State Court System in Milwaukee County as
anticipated by the Courts in their 2008 budget request and in the 2008
Recommended Budget. The County budget as adopted by the Board did not
adjust the projected state aid for the Courts as reflected in final provisions of the
State Budget. As a result, as adopted, the Courts budget includes approximately
$2.0 million in State revenue that will not materialize in 2008. However, the
County Board, under Amendment 1C009, appropriated an additional $3.0 million
to the appropriation for contingencies to “help partially mitigate State revenues

CArcher_Email3016679

that were not realized upon passage of the 2007-09 State Budget in late October
2007.”
The County Budget as adopted by the Board establishes expenditure authority of
$49,280,945, revenue of $12,573,524 and tax levy of $36,707,421 for the
Combined Court Related Operations 2008 budget. Amendment 1C009
appropriated an additional $3,000,000 in tax levy for the Appropriation for
Contingencies as indicated above.
I am partially vetoing the budget to reduce the budgeted revenues for the
Combined Court Related Operations budget by $2,000,000 and reduce the
authorized expenditures for the Courts by $2,000,000. Further, I am partially
vetoing Appropriation for Contingencies (Amendment 1C009) to reduce by
$2,000,000 the increase of $3,000,000 provided by the Board.
The impact of this partial veto is to reduce the additional funds appropriated to the
contingency fund by $2,000,0000 and establish Court expenditure authority at
$47,280,945 and Court revenues at $10,572,524. This partial veto retains the
Board adopted levy of $36,707,421 for the Combined Court Related Operations
as adopted by the Board.
I am using my veto authority to adjust the Combined Court Related Operations
budget to reflect the realities of the final State Budget. I do not believe the failure
of the State to adequately fund the State Court System should result in shifting
these costs to Milwaukee County property taxpayers. My intent in reducing the
increase to the contingency fund adopted by the Board by $2.0 million is to
prevent the shift of these costs to the tax levy, and I hope the County Board will
join me in 2008 in opposing any contingency fund request to address this shortfall
in State support to the Courts. The fiscal impact of this veto is a reduction in tax
levy of $2.0 million, a reduction in state aid to the Courts of $2.0 million and a
corresponding reduction in Court expenditures by $2.0 million.
I extend to the Chief Judge and County Board Chairman an invitation to continue
working with me to convince the Governor and the State Legislature to fulfill
their responsibility to adequately fund the State Courts, and my administration
also stands ready to assist the Chief Judge in developing a plan for making the
operational adjustments that will be required in the absence of additional state
support.

Veto #6: Child Support Enforcement Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$135,812]
Amendment 1A014

CArcher_Email3016680

This amendment restores funding for 1.0 FTE Child Support Coordinator, 2.5
FTE Legal Counsel Child Support 1 positions and 3.0 FTE Paralegal positions in
the Department of Child Support Enforcement.
I have vetoed this provision in its entirety because I will not support the use of
property tax levy to replace lost federal funding for Child Support Enforcement.
SCOTT WANTED SOMETHING ADDED HERE.

Veto #7: County Clerk Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$84,714]
Amendment 1A016
This amendment provides $84,714 in tax levy and restores the Deputy County
Clerk position in the County Clerk’s Office.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of Deputy County
Clerk. However, I have vetoed the additional property tax levy provided to the
County Clerk’s Office through this amendment for a levy savings of $84,714. In
light of the significant fiscal challenges facing all County departments, it is
necessary for the County Clerk to implement strategies to live within the personal
services allocation provided in my Recommended Budget.

Veto #8 Register of Deeds Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$198,694]
Amendment 1A041
This amendment denies the abolishment of three positions, including one position
each of Deputy Register of Deeds, Clerical Assistant 1 and Office Support
Assistant 2, the cost of which is completely offset by increased real estate fee
revenue.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of the Deputy
Register of Deeds, abolish the Clerical Assistant 1 position, abolish the Office
Support Assistant 2 position and reduce the expenditures of the Register of Deeds
by $198,694 for a levy savings of $198,694. In light of the significant fiscal
challenges facing all County departments, it is necessary for the Register of Deeds
to implement strategies to live within the personal services allocation provided in
my Recommended Budget.

Veto #9: Farm and Fish Hatchery
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A012

CArcher_Email3016681

The budget I presented to the Board included the closure of the House of
Correction Farm and Fish Hatchery for a levy savings of $256,384. I have
consistently proposed the closure of the Farm and Fish Hatchery because its
operation is not a core county function and because it diverts valuable resources
away from activities supporting staff and inmate safety at the House of
Correction. The above referenced amendment restores the operation of the Farm
and Fish Hatchery.
I have vetoed this amendment entirely to restore my intent to close the Farm and
Fish Hatchery in 2008.

Veto #10 House of Correction Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$342,618]
Amendment 1A049
This amendment restores $342,618 to the House of Correction budget for
contractual services expenditures related to AODA and job
development/assessment programs serving inmates at the Community
Correctional Center (CCC).
I am vetoing this amendment in its entirety for a levy savings of $342,618. In
light of the County’s budget constraints and the pressure of unfunded and
underfunded State and Federal mandates, we must dedicate our public safety
dollars to core correctional services. Also, while this veto will eliminate
contractual services for AODA and job development/assessment for Huber
inmates, the budget still includes my proposal to fund a full-time Community
Services Coordinator to assist in matching offenders with existing programs
offered in the community.

Veto #11 Electronic Monitoring Monthly Briefings
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A048
This amendment requires the County Executive and the Superintendent of the
House of Correction to provide monthly briefings through October 2008 for the
Committee on Judiciary, Safety and General Services on the ongoing
development and implementation of the expanded home detention program.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that the County
Executive provide briefings to the Committee on the Judiciary, Safety and
General Services because the County Executive is an elected Constitutional
Officer not subject to the direction of the County Board or County Board
committees.

CArcher_Email3016682

Veto #12 Funding for 211 Phone Line
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$300,000]
Amendment 1A006
Amendment 1A056
These amendments provide an additional $200,000 in tax levy to the Department
of Health and Human Services and $100,000 in tax levy to the Department of
Health and Human Services Behavioral Health Division for the 211 phone line.
I am vetoing these amendments for a tax levy savings of $300,000 to reduce the
tax burden on Milwaukee County citizens. Unfortunately, the refusal of the State
of Wisconsin to properly fund mandated human services has necessitated the use
of millions of dollars of property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in
areas such as Income Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services
and Behavioral Health. This unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax
levy to the extent we might otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human
services such as the 211 line. It is also important to recognize that the budget still
will appropriate $200,000 for the 211 line per my original recommendation,
which is a substantial contribution to this function.

Veto #13 Behavioral Health Division Purchase of Services Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$302,016]
Amendment 1A001
This amendment provides an additional $302,016 in tax levy to the Department of
Health and Human Services-Behavioral Health Division for purchase of services
contracts with the AIDS Resource Center and Fighting Back, Inc. for AODA
prevention activities.
As noted above, unfortunately, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to properly
fund mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of
property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income
Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health.
This unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might
otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human services such as AODA prevention
and education activities. It is also important to recognize that the budget still will
appropriate more than $500,000 for these contracts per my original
recommendation, which is a substantial contribution to this function.

Veto #14 Architectural and Engineering Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A039

CArcher_Email3016683

This amendment provides $150,000 to the Department of Public Works –
Architectural, Engineering and Environmental budget for the building inventory
and assessment program.
I have vetoed this amendment entirely because there are sufficient resources in the
Department of Public Works to continue work on this initiative. My veto of this
item results in a tax levy savings of $150,000.

Veto #15 Transit Zone Fares
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A030
This amendment requires the Milwaukee County Transit System to prepare a zone
fare proposal for Waukesha County residents who use the Milwaukee County
transit services in the event Waukesha County institutes a zone fare for residents
of Milwaukee County who use Waukesha County transit services. Further, the
amendment requires the Milwaukee County Transit System to report its findings
back to the Transportation, Public Works and Transit Committee for Board
approval.
I am vetoing this amendment entirely because I believe it runs counter to
Milwaukee County’s need and desire to engage in productive discussions with
other Southeastern Wisconsin counties regarding regional transportation.

Veto #16 AODA Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$600,000]
Amendment 1A074
This amendment provides an additional $600,000 in tax levy in the Department of
Health and Human Services – Behavioral Health Division budget for AODA
services in 2008.
I am vetoing this amendment because I cannot support the use of tax levy to
replace the lost Federal funding related to the Access to Recovery grant. It is also
critical to note that the County’s AODA budget still will be nearly $18 million,
which is $4.5 million more than the amount provided prior to receipt of the
original ATR grant.

Veto #17 Youth Sports Authority Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$200,000]
Amendment 1A003

CArcher_Email3016684

This amendment provides $200,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health and
Human Services - Delinquency Courts Services Division budget for funding for
the Youth Sports Authority.
I am vetoing this amendment for a tax levy savings of $200,000 because this is
not a core function of County government that should be financed by the property
taxpayer. As noted above, unfortunately, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to
properly fund mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of
dollars of property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as
Income Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral
Health. This unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent
we might otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human services such as the
Youth Sports Authority.

Veto #18 Interim Disability Assistance Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$187,980]
Amendment 1A009
This amendment provides $187,980 in tax levy and 1.0 FTE ESS position for the
Interim Disability Assistance Program administered by the Department of Health
and Human Services.
I have vetoed this amendment because providing bridge funding for persons
awaiting Federal Social Security benefits is not the responsibly of local
government, but rather the responsibility of the Federal Government. As such,
these costs should not be borne by the local property taxpayer. Also, as noted
above, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to properly fund mandated human
services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of property tax levy
overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income Maintenance,
Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health. This
unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might
otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human services such as IDAP. This veto
reduces the property tax levy by $187,980.

Veto #19 Safe Alternatives For Youth Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A051
This amendment provides $150,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health and
Human Services – Delinquency and Court Services Division budget for
implementation of the Safe Alternatives for Youth Program in 2008 per the
provisions of Adopted County Board Resolution File No. 03-247, which
established the Safe Homes (subsequently re-named the Safe Alternatives for
Youth) oversight committee. Under the provisions of this amendment, the

CArcher_Email3016685

Director of the Department of Health and Human Services is directed to execute a
contract in the amount of $12,000 with the Milwaukee Urban League for fiscal
agent services and is authorized to deposit $138,000 in SAY appropriations with
the Milwaukee Urban League as fiscal agent, from which identified activities
under the program will be funded.
I have vetoed this amendment because – similar to other vetoes described above
in the area of Health and Human Services – I cannot support the appropriation of
local property tax dollars for certain non-mandated human services at a time when
the burden for local taxpayers continues to grow to fund mandated human
services that are not adequately funded by the State of Wisconsin. In addition, I
do not believe it is a core function of County government to provide grants for
educational, cultural and recreational activities for disadvantaged youth, and I
believe there are many higher priorities for our local human services dollars. This
veto results in a tax levy savings of $150,000.

Veto #20 Wading Pool Hours
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A 065
This amendment requires the Parks Director to staff the Milwaukee County
wading pools at staggered hours to ensure that some wading pools will open at
10:00 a.m. and some will remain open until 7:00 p.m. during the entire aquatics
season. Further, the amendment requires the Parks Director to report back to the
County Board with a 2008 wading pool schedule prior to the opening of the
aquatics season.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that wading
pools be staffed to ensure that some wading pools will open at 10:00 a.m. and
some will remain open until 7:00 p.m. during the entire aquatics season because I
believe the Parks Director should maintain the administrative and management
flexibility to establish wading pool hours based on usage, weather conditions and
maintenance needs.
I am confident the Parks Director will continue to work with the Board to ensure
appropriate availability of parks resources to County residents. My partial veto
retains the requirement that the Parks Director shall report back to the County
Board with a 2008 wading pool schedule prior to the opening of the aquatics
season.

Veto #21 Parks Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$2,851,979]
Amendment 1A066

CArcher_Email3016686

The 2008 Parks Department budget I presented to the Board included the
restructuring of park maintenance staff that would have yielded a $2,035,050
property tax savings and increased the hours available for park maintenance by
15,000—20,000 hours per year. This was accomplished by abolishing 81.0 FTE
Park Maintenance Worker positions, 31.0 FTE of which are vacant, providing
additional funding of $598,379 for seasonal maintenance staff, creating 14.0 FTE
Forestry Worker DOT positions and 6.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker 2 InCharge positions and over $1 million in the capital budget for the purchase of
labor-efficient capital equipment.
In addition, my recommended budget proposed abolishing 11.54 FTE positions
that were either vacant or proposed for abolishment by the Parks Department.
Positions proposed for abolishment included 3.0 FTE vacant Office Assistant 3
positions, 1.0 FTE Special Events Coordinator position, .50 FTE Special Events
Coordinator HR position, 3.0 vacant FTE Head Lifeguard positions, and 1.04 FTE
Park Intern – Athletics positions.
Finally, my budget recommendations included the abolishment of 1.0 FTE
Community Center Manager position and 2.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker
Assistant positions, leaving 1.0 FTE Community Center Manager position and 2.0
FTE Supervisor positions.
The above referenced amendment restored funding and authorization for 50.0
FTE Park Maintenance Worker positions, eliminated $598,379 for seasonal
maintenance staff, restored authorization for 16.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker
positions (but unfunds them) and maintains the creation and funding of 14.0 FTE
Forestry Worker DOT positions and the 6.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker InCharge positions as originally proposed. Further, the above noted amendment
restores position authorization, but unfunds 2.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker
Assistant positions, 1.0 FTE Special Events Coordinator position and .50 FTE
Special Events Coordinator HR position. While the amendment is ambiguous as
to the positions that are to be unfunded, it provides $209,713 in salary, social
security, active and legacy fringe benefit funding.
The amendment restores funding and position authorization for 1.0 FTE
Community Center Manager position and restores, but unfunds 2.0 FTE Park
Maintenance Worker Assistant positions related to Community Center operations.
Lastly, the amendment increases building repair and maintenance funding to
$165,888. I originally proposed $60,473.
The amendment provides an additional $3,646,657 in tax levy support.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to restore as closely as possible the
original proposal submitted with my 2008 Recommended Budget. Specifically,
my veto retains the abolishment of 50.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker positions

CArcher_Email3016687

and removes $3.9 million in funding for these positions. Further, through my
partial veto, I have retained 16.0 FTE unfunded Park Maintenance Worker
positions for no fiscal impact as proposed by the Board. Further, while I have
maintained the provisions of Amendment 1A058 that provide an additional
$648,021 in operating capital outlay for the Parks Department, I have vetoed the
additional repair and maintenance funds provided in this amendment and written
down the lower amount of $60,473 as I originally proposed. Finally, my partial
veto retains $598,379 for seasonal park workers by leaving sufficient funds in the
Personal Services account to cover additional seasonal staff.
In addition to the above, my partial veto restores the abolishment and removes
funding for 1.0 FTE Community Center Manager position.
Lastly, my partial veto restores authorization, but unfunds 2.0 FTE Park
Maintenance Worker Assistant positions, 1.0 FTE Special Events Coordinator
position, and .50 FTE Special Events Coordinator HR position.
To reflect the above, I have written down the Personal Services expenditures
without fringe benefits to $18,508,535. I believe that this approach will provide
for additional hours of seasonal maintenance in the parks at a much lower cost for
taxpayers and is precisely the type of innovative approach to providing services
that the County’s fiscal constraints and its taxpayers demand and deserve.

Veto# 23: UW-Extension Contract
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$172,533]
Amendment 1A 018
This amendment denies the proposed termination of Milwaukee County’s contract
with the Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin System effective 2008
and restores funding to the 2007 levy for the UW-Extension by increasing
expenditures by $293,613 and increasing revenues by $121,080 for a net tax levy
increase of $172,533.
I have exercised my partial veto authority to eliminate the continuation of this
contract, remove the expenditure of $293,613, the revenue of 121,080 and the tax
levy of $172,533. As partially vetoed, Milwaukee County’s contract would
terminate with the Board of regents effective 2008. My partial veto retains the
$37,507 for rent and related lease expenses for the first four months of 2008.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to effect the termination of the contract
and the removal of funding for the UW-Extension contract because I believe that
these funds are better spent on higher priority core County functions.

Veto #23 Capital Budget Marcus Center Ballroom

CArcher_Email3016688

[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1B013
This amendment authorizes $200,000 in general obligation bonding for the
replacement of the partition system in the Marcus Center ballroom.
I am vetoing this amendment in its entirety to bring the total 2008 general
obligation bond issue to a level within the established Board policy. County
Board policy indicates that 2008 corporate purpose bonds be limited to a total of
$30 million. As adopted by the Board, the estimated total corporate purpose bond
issue for 2008 would total $30,120,000 or $120,000 above the Board imposed
cap. By vetoing project WO037 – Marcus Center Ballroom Operable Partition
Replacement, 2008 Corporate purpose bonding would total $29,920,000.
I have vetoed this project to reduce the general obligation bond amount in 2008 to
a level consistent with the County Board policy that is designed to limit long-term
fiscal obligations for County property taxpayers.

I have exercised my veto authority as follows:

Veto #1 County Board Salary Increases
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A 077
Amended Section 17.99 General Ordinances of Milwaukee County relating to the salaries
of the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors and the County Executive
This amendment increases personal service expenditures by $29,851 and reduces
services by the same amount in the County Board Office and authorizes an
increase in Milwaukee County Supervisors’ salaries of 4% effective April 1, 2008
to remain at that level for the duration of the 2008-2012 term.
I have partially vetoed this provision and entirely vetoed the modifications to
Ordinance 17.99 to avoid reducing the budget for the County Board Office, but to
remove the authorization for the increased pay for County Board Supervisors.
I have vetoed this provision because I do not believe this provision should have
been considered as a last-minute amendment to the budget, but more
appropriately should have been advanced through the Personnel Committee to
ensure full public debate of this policy and fiscal matter.

Veto #2 Land Sales and Inclusive Housing Fund
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$1,000,000]
Amendment 1B022 & 1CO14
This amendment modifies the Land Sales budget to reflect the potential sale of the
County Grounds Northeast Quadrant to UW-Milwaukee and allocates $1.0
million of land sale revenue and expenditure authority to the Capital
Improvements budget for project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the listing of the sale of the County
Grounds Northeast Quadrant as a potential land sale in 2008, retain $1.0 million
of revenue in the Land Sales budget, but eliminate the reallocation of $1.0 million
in land sale revenue to the Capital Improvement project WO043-Inclusive
Housing Fund. My partial veto also removes the authorized expenditure of $1.0
million for the Inclusive Housing Fund resulting in a levy savings of $1.0 million.
I am concerned about the addition of $1.0 million to the Land Sales budget based
on the sale of the Northeast Quadrant. My concern is not over whether this sale
should take place, as I am very excited about the plans for a UWM School of
Engineering on the County Grounds, and I strongly believe that the sale of this
parcel for that purpose is the right move for the citizens of Milwaukee County.

CArcher_Email3016696

Instead, my concern is whether this sale can be consummated by the end of 2008.
Because one of the biggest obstacles to an expeditious sale is potential delay by
the County Board, the Board’s insertion of this provision into the Budget allows
me to feel more comfortable in retaining this provision. I would remind
Supervisors, however, that they have a responsibility to join me in aggressively
moving this project forward so that we can indeed realize this revenue in 2008.
I am vetoing the provision allocating $1.0 million from the Land Sales budget to
the Capital Improvements budget for project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund.
The budget I presented and ultimately adopted by the Board already includes $1.0
million for the construction of housing for individuals with mental illness under
the auspices of the new Housing Division in the Department of Health and
Human Services. Unlike the Inclusive Housing Fund, this fund for special needs
housing is governed by clear criteria proposed by my administration and adopted
by the County Board, and it is strategically designed to address significant
programmatic concerns in the Behavioral Health Division, including
overcrowding in its acute inpatient units and Psychiatric Crisis Service.
Conversely, the specific purpose of the Inclusive Housing Fund has never been
defined and it has not been determined how this fund is consistent with the core
mission and strategic objectives of Milwaukee County. In light of the recognized
need for additional affordable housing in Milwaukee County, my Recommended
Budget did propose allocating surplus land sales revenue to the Inclusive Housing
Fund so that we could develop a plan for the use of these funds and utilize them if
they materialized due to a surplus. However, in light of our fiscal constraints and
the appropriation of $1.0 million for special needs housing, I cannot justify
dedicating an additional $1.0 million of direct property tax levy for this purpose.

Veto #3: Courts Staffing
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$438,907]
Amendment 1A045
The Courts budget I presented to the Board recommended the abolishment of 4.0
FTE vacant Clerical Assistant 1 positions (two of which were also unfunded in
2007), the abolishment of 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants
and the abolishment of 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns. This amendment restores
and provides funding for two of the four Clerical Assistant 1 positions, the 2.0
FTE Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants and the 9.0 Legal Research Interns.
Under the amendment, 2.0 FTE Clerical Assistant 1 positions would remain but
would be unfunded in 2008. Finally, this amendment reduces the proposed lump
sum salary adjustment for the Courts by increasing funding for personal services
by $167,396. In total, this amendment provides an additional $850,885 in tax
levy for the above noted restorations.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the authorization and full funding
of the 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns ($411,977) and to retain the authorization

CArcher_Email3016697

for the 2.0 FTE Clerical Assistant 1 unfunded positions in the Register in Probate
Division as approved by the Board. However, my partial veto restores the
abolishment and eliminates the funding for the 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court
Clerk Judicial Assistants and 2.0 FTE Clerical Assistant 1 positions for a levy
savings of $271,512. Further, by writing down the reduction in the lump sum
salary adjustment by $1, my partial veto will restore a lump sum reduction of
$1,400,790 and a levy savings of $167,395.
I have retained the 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns because of the Chief Judge’s
expressed concern about the impact of such a reduction on the operations of the
Courts. However, I continue to believe that abolishing 4.0 FTE vacant support
positions will not jeopardize the operations of the Courts and that the lump sum
reduction proposed in my recommended budget is manageable.

Veto #4: State Funding for Courts System
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$2,000,000]
Amendment 1C009
The final State Budget did not include approximately $2.0 million in additional
State aid for the administration of the State Court System in Milwaukee County as
anticipated by the Courts in their 2008 budget request and in the 2008
Recommended Budget. The County budget as adopted by the Board did not
adjust the projected state aid for the Courts as reflected in final provisions of the
State Budget. As a result, as adopted, the Courts budget includes approximately
$2.0 million in State revenue that will not materialize in 2008. However, the
County Board, under Amendment 1C009, appropriated an additional $3.0 million
to the appropriation for contingencies to “help partially mitigate State revenues
that were not realized upon passage of the 2007-09 State Budget in late October
2007.”
The County Budget as adopted by the Board establishes expenditure authority of
$49,280,945, revenue of $12,573,524 and tax levy of $36,707,421 for the
Combined Court Related Operations 2008 budget. Amendment 1C009
appropriated an additional $3,000,000 in tax levy for the Appropriation for
Contingencies as indicated above.
I am partially vetoing the budget to reduce the budgeted revenues for the
Combined Court Related Operations budget by $2,000,000 and reduce the
authorized expenditures for the Courts by $2,000,000. Further, I am partially
vetoing Appropriation for Contingencies (Amendment 1C009) to reduce by
$2,000,000 the increase of $3,000,000 provided by the Board.
The impact of this partial veto is to reduce the additional funds appropriated to the
contingency fund by $2,000,0000 and establish Court expenditure authority at
$47,280,945 and Court revenues at $10,572,524. This partial veto retains the

CArcher_Email3016698

Board adopted levy of $36,707,421 for the Combined Court Related Operations
as adopted by the Board.
I am using my veto authority to adjust the Combined Court Related Operations
budget to reflect the realities of the final State Budget. I do not believe the failure
of the State to adequately fund the State Court System should result in shifting
these costs to Milwaukee County property taxpayers. My intent in reducing the
increase to the contingency fund adopted by the Board by $2.0 million is to
prevent the shift of these costs to the tax levy, and I hope the County Board will
join me in 2008 in opposing any contingency fund request to address this shortfall
in State support to the Courts. The fiscal impact of this veto is a reduction in tax
levy of $2.0 million, a reduction in state aid to the Courts of $2.0 million and a
corresponding reduction in Court expenditures by $2.0 million.
I extend to the Chief Judge and County Board Chairman an invitation to continue
working with me to convince the Governor and the State Legislature to fulfill
their responsibility to adequately fund the State Courts, and my administration
also stands ready to assist the Chief Judge in developing a plan for making the
operational adjustments that will be required in the absence of additional state
support.

Veto #5: Child Support Enforcement Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$135,812]
Amendment 1A014
This amendment restores funding for 1.0 FTE Child Support Coordinator, 2.5
FTE Legal Counsel Child Support 1 positions and 3.0 FTE Paralegal positions in
the Department of Child Support Enforcement.
I have vetoed this provision in its entirety because I will not support the use of
property tax levy to replace lost federal funding for Child Support Enforcement.
SCOTT WANTED SOMETHING ADDED HERE.

Veto #6: County Clerk Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$84,714]
Amendment 1A016
This amendment provides $84,714 in tax levy and restores the Deputy County
Clerk position in the County Clerk’s Office.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of Deputy County
Clerk. However, I have vetoed the additional property tax levy provided to the
County Clerk’s Office through this amendment for a levy savings of $84,714. In
light of the significant fiscal challenges facing all County departments, it is

CArcher_Email3016699

necessary for the County Clerk to implement strategies to live within the personal
services allocation provided in my Recommended Budget.

Veto #7 Register of Deeds Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$198,694]
Amendment 1A041
This amendment denies the abolishment of three positions, including one position
each of Deputy Register of Deeds, Clerical Assistant 1 and Office Support
Assistant 2, the cost of which is completely offset by increased real estate fee
revenue.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of the Deputy
Register of Deeds, abolish the Clerical Assistant 1 position, abolish the Office
Support Assistant 2 position and reduce the expenditures of the Register of Deeds
by $198,694 for a levy savings of $198,694. In light of the significant fiscal
challenges facing all County departments, it is necessary for the Register of Deeds
to implement strategies to live within the personal services allocation provided in
my Recommended Budget.

Veto #8: Farm and Fish Hatchery
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A012
The budget I presented to the Board included the closure of the House of
Correction Farm and Fish Hatchery for a levy savings of $256,384. I have
consistently proposed the closure of the Farm and Fish Hatchery because its
operation is not a core county function and because it diverts valuable resources
away from activities supporting staff and inmate safety at the House of
Correction. The above referenced amendment restores the operation of the Farm
and Fish Hatchery.
I have vetoed this amendment entirely to restore my intent to close the Farm and
Fish Hatchery in 2008.

Veto #9 House of Correction Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$342,618]
Amendment 1A049
This amendment restores $342,618 to the House of Correction budget for
contractual services expenditures related to AODA and job
development/assessment programs serving inmates at the Community
Correctional Center (CCC).

CArcher_Email3016700

I am vetoing this amendment in its entirety for a levy savings of $342,618. In
light of the County’s budget constraints and the pressure of unfunded and
underfunded State and Federal mandates, we must dedicate our public safety
dollars to core correctional services. Also, while this veto will eliminate
contractual services for AODA and job development/assessment for Huber
inmates, the budget still includes my proposal to fund a full-time Community
Services Coordinator to assist in matching offenders with existing programs
offered in the community.

Veto #10 Electronic Monitoring Monthly Briefings
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A048
This amendment requires the County Executive and the Superintendent of the
House of Correction to provide monthly briefings through October 2008 for the
Committee on Judiciary, Safety and General Services on the ongoing
development and implementation of the expanded home detention program.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that the County
Executive provide briefings to the Committee on the Judiciary, Safety and
General Services because the County Executive is an elected Constitutional
Officer not subject to the direction of the County Board or County Board

Veto #11 Funding for 211 Phone Line
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$300,000]
Amendment 1A006
Amendment 1A056
These amendments provide an additional $200,000 in tax levy to the Department
of Health and Human Services and $100,000 in tax levy to the Department of
Health and Human Services Behavioral Health Division for the 211 phone line.
I am vetoing these amendments for a tax levy savings of $300,000 to reduce the
tax burden on Milwaukee County citizens. Unfortunately, the refusal of the State
of Wisconsin to properly fund mandated human services has necessitated the use
of millions of dollars of property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in
areas such as Income Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services
and Behavioral Health. This unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax
levy to the extent we might otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human
services such as the 211 line. It is also important to recognize that the budget still
will appropriate $200,000 for the 211 line per my original recommendation,
which is a substantial contribution to this function.

Veto #12 Behavioral Health Division Purchase of Services Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$302,016]
Amendment 1A001
This amendment provides an additional $302,016 in tax levy to the Department of
Health and Human Services-Behavioral Health Division for purchase of services
contracts with the AIDS Resource Center and Fighting Back, Inc. for AODA
prevention activities.
As noted above, unfortunately, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to properly
fund mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of
property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income
Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health.
This unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might
otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human services such as AODA prevention
and education activities. It is also important to recognize that the budget still will
appropriate more than $500,000 for these contracts per my original
recommendation, which is a substantial contribution to this function.

Veto #13 Architectural and Engineering Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A039
This amendment provides $150,000 to the Department of Public Works –
Architectural, Engineering and Environmental budget for the building inventory
and assessment program.
I have vetoed this amendment entirely because there are sufficient resources in the
Department of Public Works to continue work on this initiative. My veto of this
item results in a tax levy savings of $150,000.

Veto #14 Transit Zone Fares
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A030
This amendment requires the Milwaukee County Transit System to prepare a zone
fare proposal for Waukesha County residents who use the Milwaukee County
transit services in the event Waukesha County institutes a zone fare for residents
of Milwaukee County who use Waukesha County transit services. Further, the
amendment requires the Milwaukee County Transit System to report its findings
back to the Transportation, Public Works and Transit Committee for Board
approval.

CArcher_Email3016702

I am vetoing this amendment entirely because I believe it runs counter to
Milwaukee County’s need and desire to engage in productive discussions with
other Southeastern Wisconsin counties regarding regional transportation.

Veto #15 AODA Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$600,000]
Amendment 1A074
This amendment provides an additional $600,000 in tax levy in the Department of
Health and Human Services – Behavioral Health Division budget for AODA
services in 2008.
I am vetoing this amendment because I cannot support the use of tax levy to
replace the lost Federal funding related to the Access to Recovery grant. It is also
critical to note that the County’s AODA budget still will be nearly $18 million,
which is $4.5 million more than the amount provided prior to receipt of the
original ATR grant.

Veto #16 Youth Sports Authority Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$200,000]
Amendment 1A003
This amendment provides $200,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health and
Human Services - Delinquency Courts Services Division budget for funding for
the Youth Sports Authority.
I am vetoing this amendment for a tax levy savings of $200,000 because this is
not a core function of County government that should be financed by the property
taxpayer. As noted above, unfortunately, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to
properly fund mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of
dollars of property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as
Income Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral
Health. This unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent
we might otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human services such as the
Youth Sports Authority.

Veto #17 Interim Disability Assistance Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$187,980]
Amendment 1A009

CArcher_Email3016703

This amendment provides $187,980 in tax levy and 1.0 FTE ESS position for the
Interim Disability Assistance Program administered by the Department of Health
and Human Services.
I have vetoed this amendment because providing bridge funding for persons
awaiting Federal Social Security benefits is not the responsibly of local
government, but rather the responsibility of the Federal Government. As such,
these costs should not be borne by the local property taxpayer. Also, as noted
above, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to properly fund mandated human
services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of property tax levy
overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income Maintenance,
Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health. This
unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might
otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human services such as IDAP. This veto
reduces the property tax levy by $187,980.

Veto #18 Safe Alternatives For Youth Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A051
This amendment provides $150,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health and
Human Services – Delinquency and Court Services Division budget for
implementation of the Safe Alternatives for Youth Program in 2008 per the
provisions of Adopted County Board Resolution File No. 03-247, which
established the Safe Homes (subsequently re-named the Safe Alternatives for
Youth) oversight committee. Under the provisions of this amendment, the
Director of the Department of Health and Human Services is directed to execute a
contract in the amount of $12,000 with the Milwaukee Urban League for fiscal
agent services and is authorized to deposit $138,000 in SAY appropriations with
the Milwaukee Urban League as fiscal agent, from which identified activities
under the program will be funded.
I have vetoed this amendment because – similar to other vetoes described above
in the area of Health and Human Services – I cannot support the appropriation of
local property tax dollars for certain non-mandated human services at a time when
the burden for local taxpayers continues to grow to fund mandated human
services that are not adequately funded by the State of Wisconsin. In addition, I
do not believe it is a core function of County government to provide grants for
educational, cultural and recreational activities for disadvantaged youth, and I
believe there are many higher priorities for our local human services dollars. This
veto results in a tax levy savings of $150,000.

Veto #19 Wading Pool Hours
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]

CArcher_Email3016704

Amendment 1A 065
This amendment requires the Parks Director to staff the Milwaukee County
wading pools at staggered hours to ensure that some wading pools will open at
10:00 a.m. and some will remain open until 7:00 p.m. during the entire aquatics
season. Further, the amendment requires the Parks Director to report back to the
County Board with a 2008 wading pool schedule prior to the opening of the
aquatics season.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that wading
pools be staffed to ensure that some wading pools will open at 10:00 a.m. and
some will remain open until 7:00 p.m. during the entire aquatics season because I
believe the Parks Director should maintain the administrative and management
flexibility to establish wading pool hours based on usage, weather conditions and
maintenance needs.
I am confident the Parks Director will continue to work with the Board to ensure
appropriate availability of parks resources to County residents. My partial veto
retains the requirement that the Parks Director shall report back to the County
Board with a 2008 wading pool schedule prior to the opening of the aquatics
season.

Veto #20 Parks Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$2,851,979]
Amendment 1A066
The 2008 Parks Department budget I presented to the Board included the
restructuring of park maintenance staff that would have yielded a $2,035,050
property tax savings and increased the hours available for park maintenance by
15,000—20,000 hours per year. This was accomplished by abolishing 81.0 FTE
Park Maintenance Worker positions, 31.0 FTE of which are vacant, providing
additional funding of $598,379 for seasonal maintenance staff, creating 14.0 FTE
Forestry Worker DOT positions and 6.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker 2 InCharge positions and over $1 million in the capital budget for the purchase of
labor-efficient capital equipment.
In addition, my recommended budget proposed abolishing 11.54 FTE positions
that were either vacant or proposed for abolishment by the Parks Department.
Positions proposed for abolishment included 3.0 FTE vacant Office Assistant 3
positions, 1.0 FTE Special Events Coordinator position, .50 FTE Special Events
Coordinator HR position, 3.0 vacant FTE Head Lifeguard positions, and 1.04 FTE
Park Intern – Athletics positions.
Finally, my budget recommendations included the abolishment of 1.0 FTE
Community Center Manager position and 2.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker

CArcher_Email3016705

Assistant positions, leaving 1.0 FTE Community Center Manager position and 2.0
FTE Supervisor positions.
The above referenced amendment restored funding and authorization for 50.0
FTE Park Maintenance Worker positions, eliminated $598,379 for seasonal
maintenance staff, restored authorization for 16.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker
positions (but unfunds them) and maintains the creation and funding of 14.0 FTE
Forestry Worker DOT positions and the 6.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker InCharge positions as originally proposed. Further, the above noted amendment
restores position authorization, but unfunds 2.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker
Assistant positions, 1.0 FTE Special Events Coordinator position and .50 FTE
Special Events Coordinator HR position. While the amendment is ambiguous as
to the positions that are to be unfunded, it provides $209,713 in salary, social
security, active and legacy fringe benefit funding.
The amendment restores funding and position authorization for 1.0 FTE
Community Center Manager position and restores, but unfunds 2.0 FTE Park
Maintenance Worker Assistant positions related to Community Center operations.
Lastly, the amendment increases building repair and maintenance funding to
$165,888. I originally proposed $60,473.
The amendment provides an additional $3,646,657 in tax levy support.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to restore as closely as possible the
original proposal submitted with my 2008 Recommended Budget. Specifically,
my veto retains the abolishment of 50.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker positions
and removes $3.9 million in funding for these positions. Further, through my
partial veto, I have retained 16.0 FTE unfunded Park Maintenance Worker
positions for no fiscal impact as proposed by the Board. Further, while I have
maintained the provisions of Amendment 1A058 that provide an additional
$648,021 in operating capital outlay for the Parks Department, I have vetoed the
additional repair and maintenance funds provided in this amendment and written
down the lower amount of $60,473 as I originally proposed. Finally, my partial
veto retains $598,379 for seasonal park workers by leaving sufficient funds in the
Personal Services account to cover additional seasonal staff.
In addition to the above, my partial veto restores the abolishment and removes
funding for 1.0 FTE Community Center Manager position.
Lastly, my partial veto restores authorization, but unfunds 2.0 FTE Park
Maintenance Worker Assistant positions, 1.0 FTE Special Events Coordinator
position, and .50 FTE Special Events Coordinator HR position.
To reflect the above, I have written down the Personal Services expenditures
without fringe benefits to $18,508,535. I believe that this approach will provide

CArcher_Email3016706

for additional hours of seasonal maintenance in the parks at a much lower cost for
taxpayers and is precisely the type of innovative approach to providing services
that the County’s fiscal constraints and its taxpayers demand and deserve.

Veto# 21: UW-Extension Contract
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$172,533]
Amendment 1A 018
This amendment denies the proposed termination of Milwaukee County’s contract
with the Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin System effective 2008
and restores funding to the 2007 levy for the UW-Extension by increasing
expenditures by $293,613 and increasing revenues by $121,080 for a net tax levy
increase of $172,533.
I have exercised my partial veto authority to eliminate the continuation of this
contract, remove the expenditure of $293,613, the revenue of 121,080 and the tax
levy of $172,533. As partially vetoed, Milwaukee County’s contract would
terminate with the Board of regents effective 2008. My partial veto retains the
$37,507 for rent and related lease expenses for the first four months of 2008.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to effect the termination of the contract
and the removal of funding for the UW-Extension contract because I believe that
these funds are better spent on higher priority core County functions.

Veto #22 Capital Budget Marcus Center Ballroom
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1B013
This amendment authorizes $200,000 in general obligation bonding for the
replacement of the partition system in the Marcus Center ballroom.
I am vetoing this amendment in its entirety to bring the total 2008 general
obligation bond issue to a level within the established Board policy. County
Board policy indicates that 2008 corporate purpose bonds be limited to a total of
$30 million. As adopted by the Board, the estimated total corporate purpose bond
issue for 2008 would total $30,120,000 or $120,000 above the Board imposed
cap. By vetoing project WO037 – Marcus Center Ballroom Operable Partition
Replacement, 2008 Corporate purpose bonding would total $29,920,000.
I have vetoed this project to reduce the general obligation bond amount in 2008 to
a level consistent with the County Board policy that is designed to limit long-term
fiscal obligations for County property taxpayers.

modification to the Child Support Enforcement one where he wanted more
written. The other is the message for Parks staffing and the last one is the
veto related to the Marcus center. He needs to take a look at these and let me

Veto #5: Child Support Enforcement Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$135,812]
Amendment 1A014
This amendment restores funding for 1.0 FTE Child Support Coordinator, 2.5
FTE Legal Counsel Child Support 1 positions and 3.0 FTE Paralegal positions in
the Department of Child Support Enforcement.
I have vetoed this provision in its entirety because I will not support the use of
property tax levy to replace lost federal funding for Child Support Enforcement.
Similar to the failure of State government to fulfill its fiscal responsibilities, we
are seeing an increasing trend by the Federal government to pass the financial
burden onto to local governments. As a result of the Federal Deficit Reduction
Act, Milwaukee County will lose approximately $8.0 million in federal funding
during 2008 for Child Support Enforcement. As the Federal Government backs
away from its responsibilities, increasing pressure is placed on local governments
to fill the gap. To be clear, I will not use property tax levy to replace lost Federal
funding. Consequently, I have vetoed this provision in its entirety because I will
not support the use of property tax levy to replace lost federal funding for Child
Support Enforcement.

Veto #20 Parks Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$2,851,979]
Amendment 1A066
The 2008 Parks Department budget I presented to the Board included the
restructuring of park maintenance staff that would have yielded a $2,035,050
property tax savings and increased the hours available for park maintenance by
15,000—20,000 hours per year. This was accomplished by abolishing 81.0 FTE
Park Maintenance Worker positions, 31.0 FTE of which are vacant, providing
additional funding of $598,379 for seasonal maintenance staff, creating 14.0 FTE
Forestry Worker DOT positions and 6.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker 2 InCharge positions and over $1 million in the capital budget for the purchase of
labor-efficient capital equipment.
In addition, my recommended budget proposed abolishing 11.54 FTE positions
that were either vacant or proposed for abolishment by the Parks Department.
Positions proposed for abolishment included 3.0 FTE vacant Office Assistant 3
positions, 1.0 FTE Special Events Coordinator position, .50 FTE Special Events
Coordinator HR position, 3.0 vacant FTE Head Lifeguard positions, and 1.04 FTE
Park Intern – Athletics positions.
Finally, my budget recommendations included the abolishment of 1.0 FTE
Community Center Manager position and 2.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker

CArcher_Email3016710

Assistant positions, leaving 1.0 FTE Community Center Manager position and 2.0
FTE Community Center Supervisor positions.
The above referenced amendment restored funding and authorization for 50.0
FTE Park Maintenance Worker positions, eliminated $598,379 for seasonal
maintenance staff, restored authorization for 16.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker
positions (but unfunds them) and maintains the creation and funding of 14.0 FTE
Forestry Worker DOT positions and the 6.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker InCharge positions as originally proposed. Further, the above noted amendment
restores position authorization, but unfunds 2.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker
Assistant positions, 1.0 FTE Special Events Coordinator position and .50 FTE
Special Events Coordinator HR position. While the amendment is ambiguous as
to the positions that are to be unfunded, it provides $209,713 in salary, social
security, active and legacy fringe benefit funding.
The amendment restores funding and position authorization for 1.0 FTE
Community Center Manager position and restores, but unfunds 2.0 FTE Park
Maintenance Worker Assistant positions related to Community Center operations.
Lastly, the amendment increases building repair and maintenance funding to
$165,888. I originally proposed $60,473.
The amendment provides an additional $3,646,657 in tax levy support.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to restore as closely as possible the
original proposal submitted with my 2008 Recommended Budget. Specifically,
my veto retains the abolishment of 50.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker positions
and removes $3.9 million in funding for these positions. Through my partial veto,
I have retained 16.0 FTE unfunded Park Maintenance Worker positions for no
fiscal impact as proposed by the Board. Further, while I have maintained the
provisions of Amendment 1A058 that provide an additional $648,021 in operating
capital outlay for the Parks Department, I have vetoed the additional repair and
maintenance funds provided in this amendment and written down the lower
amount of $60,473 as I originally proposed. Finally, my partial veto retains
$598,379 for seasonal park workers by leaving sufficient funds in the Personal
Services account to cover additional seasonal staff.
In addition to the above, my partial veto restores the abolishment and removes
funding for 1.0 FTE Community Center Manager position.
Lastly, my partial veto restores authorization, but unfunds 2.0 FTE Park
Maintenance Worker Assistant positions, 1.0 FTE Special Events Coordinator
position, and .50 FTE Special Events Coordinator HR position.
To reflect the above, I have written down the Personal Services expenditures
without fringe benefits to $18,508,535. I believe that this approach will provide

CArcher_Email3016711

for additional hours of seasonal maintenance in the parks at a much lower cost for
taxpayers and is precisely the type of innovative approach to providing services
that the County’s fiscal constraints and its taxpayers demand and deserve.

I have exercised my veto authority as follows:

Veto #1 County Board Salary Increases
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A 077
Amended Section 17.99 General Ordinances of Milwaukee County relating to the salaries
of the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors and the County Executive
This amendment increases personal service expenditures by $29,851 and reduces
services by the same amount in the County Board Office and authorizes an
increase in Milwaukee County Supervisors’ salaries of 4% effective April 1, 2008
to remain at that level for the duration of the 2008-2012 term.
I have partially vetoed this provision and entirely vetoed the modifications to
Ordinance 17.99 to avoid reducing the budget for the County Board Office, but to
remove the authorization for the increased pay for County Board Supervisors.
I have vetoed this provision because I do not believe this provision should have
been considered as a last-minute amendment to the budget, but more
appropriately should have been advanced through the Personnel Committee to
ensure full public debate of this policy and fiscal matter.

Veto #2 Land Sales and Inclusive Housing Fund
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$1,000,000]
Amendment 1B022 & 1CO14
This amendment modifies the Land Sales budget to reflect the potential sale of the
County Grounds Northeast Quadrant to UW-Milwaukee and allocates $1.0
million of land sale revenue and expenditure authority to the Capital
Improvements budget for project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the listing of the sale of the County
Grounds Northeast Quadrant as a potential land sale in 2008, retain $1.0 million
of revenue in the Land Sales budget, but eliminate the reallocation of $1.0 million
in land sale revenue to the Capital Improvement project WO043-Inclusive
Housing Fund. My partial veto also removes the authorized expenditure of $1.0
million for the Inclusive Housing Fund resulting in a levy savings of $1.0 million.
I am concerned about the addition of $1.0 million to the Land Sales budget based
on the sale of the Northeast Quadrant. My concern is not over whether this sale
should take place, as I am very excited about the plans for a UWM School of
Engineering on the County Grounds, and I strongly believe that the sale of this
parcel for that purpose is the right move for the citizens of Milwaukee County.

CArcher_Email3016715

Instead, my concern is whether this sale can be consummated by the end of 2008.
Because one of the biggest obstacles to an expeditious sale is potential delay by
the County Board, the Board’s insertion of this provision into the Budget allows
me to feel more comfortable in retaining this provision. I would remind
Supervisors, however, that they have a responsibility to join me in aggressively
moving this project forward so that we can indeed realize this revenue in 2008.
I am vetoing the provision allocating $1.0 million from the Land Sales budget to
the Capital Improvements budget for project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund.
The budget I presented and ultimately adopted by the Board already includes $1.0
million for the construction of housing for individuals with mental illness under
the auspices of the new Housing Division in the Department of Health and
Human Services. Unlike the Inclusive Housing Fund, this fund for special needs
housing is governed by clear criteria proposed by my administration and adopted
by the County Board, and it is strategically designed to address significant
programmatic concerns in the Behavioral Health Division, including
overcrowding in its acute inpatient units and Psychiatric Crisis Service.
Conversely, the specific purpose of the Inclusive Housing Fund has never been
defined and it has not been determined how this fund is consistent with the core
mission and strategic objectives of Milwaukee County. In light of the recognized
need for additional affordable housing in Milwaukee County, my Recommended
Budget did propose allocating surplus land sales revenue to the Inclusive Housing
Fund so that we could develop a plan for the use of these funds and utilize them if
they materialized due to a surplus. However, in light of our fiscal constraints and
the appropriation of $1.0 million for special needs housing, I cannot justify
dedicating an additional $1.0 million of direct property tax levy for this purpose.

Veto #3: Courts Staffing
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$438,907]
Amendment 1A045
The Courts budget I presented to the Board recommended the abolishment of 4.0
FTE vacant Clerical Assistant 1 positions (two of which were also unfunded in
2007), the abolishment of 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants
and the abolishment of 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns. This amendment restores
and provides funding for two of the four Clerical Assistant 1 positions, the 2.0
FTE Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants and the 9.0 Legal Research Interns.
Under the amendment, 2.0 FTE Clerical Assistant 1 positions would remain but
would be unfunded in 2008. Finally, this amendment reduces the proposed lump
sum salary adjustment for the Courts by increasing funding for personal services
by $167,396. In total, this amendment provides an additional $850,885 in tax
levy for the above noted restorations.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the authorization and full funding
of the 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns ($411,977) and to retain the authorization

CArcher_Email3016716

for the 2.0 FTE Clerical Assistant 1 unfunded positions in the Register in Probate
Division as approved by the Board. However, my partial veto restores the
abolishment and eliminates the funding for the 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court
Clerk Judicial Assistants and 2.0 FTE Clerical Assistant 1 positions for a levy
savings of $271,512. Further, by writing down the reduction in the lump sum
salary adjustment by $1, my partial veto will restore a lump sum reduction of
$1,400,790 and a levy savings of $167,395.
I have retained the 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns because of the Chief Judge’s
expressed concern about the impact of such a reduction on the operations of the
Courts. However, I continue to believe that abolishing 4.0 FTE vacant support
positions will not jeopardize the operations of the Courts and that the lump sum
reduction proposed in my recommended budget is manageable.

Veto #4: State Funding for Courts System/Appropriation for Contigencies
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$2,000,000]
Amendment 1C009
The final State Budget did not include approximately $2.0 million in additional
State aid for the administration of the State Court System in Milwaukee County as
anticipated by the Courts in their 2008 budget request and in the 2008
Recommended Budget. The County budget as adopted by the Board did not
adjust the projected state aid for the Courts as reflected in final provisions of the
State Budget. As a result, as adopted, the Courts budget includes approximately
$2.0 million in State revenue that will not materialize in 2008. However, the
County Board, under Amendment 1C009, appropriated an additional $3.0 million
to the appropriation for contingencies to “help partially mitigate State revenues
that were not realized upon passage of the 2007-09 State Budget in late October
2007.”
The County Budget as adopted by the Board establishes expenditure authority of
$49,280,945, revenue of $12,573,524 and tax levy of $36,707,421 for the
Combined Court Related Operations 2008 budget. Amendment 1C009
appropriated an additional $3,000,000 in tax levy for the Appropriation for
Contingencies as indicated above.
I am partially vetoing the budget to reduce the budgeted revenues for the
Combined Court Related Operations budget by $2,000,000 and reduce the
authorized expenditures for the Courts by $2,000,000. Further, I am partially
vetoing Appropriation for Contingencies (Amendment 1C009) to reduce by
$2,000,000 the increase of $3,000,000 provided by the Board.
The impact of this partial veto is to reduce the additional funds appropriated to the
contingency fund by $2,000,0000 and establish Court expenditure authority at
$47,280,945 and Court revenues at $10,573,524. This partial veto retains the

CArcher_Email3016717

Board adopted levy of $36,707,421 for the Combined Court Related Operations
as adopted by the Board.
I am using my veto authority to adjust the Combined Court Related Operations
budget to reflect the realities of the final State Budget. I do not believe the failure
of the State to adequately fund the State Court System should result in shifting
these costs to Milwaukee County property taxpayers. My intent in reducing the
increase to the contingency fund adopted by the Board by $2.0 million is to
prevent the shift of these costs to the tax levy, and I hope the County Board will
join me in 2008 in opposing any contingency fund request to address this shortfall
in State support to the Courts. The fiscal impact of this veto is a reduction in tax
levy of $2.0 million, a reduction in state aid to the Courts of $2.0 million and a
corresponding reduction in Court expenditures by $2.0 million.
I extend to the Chief Judge and County Board Chairman an invitation to continue
working with me to convince the Governor and the State Legislature to fulfill
their responsibility to adequately fund the State Courts, and my administration
also stands ready to assist the Chief Judge in developing a plan for making the
operational adjustments that will be required in the absence of additional state
support.

Veto #5: Child Support Enforcement Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$135,812]
Amendment 1A014
This amendment restores funding for 1.0 FTE Child Support Coordinator, 2.5
FTE Legal Counsel Child Support 1 positions and 3.0 FTE Paralegal positions in
the Department of Child Support Enforcement.
I have vetoed this provision in its entirety because I will not support the use of
property tax levy to replace lost federal funding for Child Support Enforcement.
Similar to the failure of State government to fulfill its fiscal responsibilities, we
are seeing an increasing trend by the Federal government to pass the financial
burden onto to local governments. As a result of the Federal Deficit Reduction
Act, Milwaukee County will lose approximately $8.0 million in federal funding
during 2008 for Child Support Enforcement. As the Federal Government backs
away from its responsibilities, increasing pressure is placed on local governments
to fill the gap. To be clear, I will not use property tax levy to replace lost Federal
funding. Consequently, I have vetoed this provision in its entirety because I will
not support the use of property tax levy to replace lost federal funding for Child
Support Enforcement.

CArcher_Email3016718

Veto #6: County Clerk Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$84,714]
Amendment 1A016
This amendment provides $84,714 in tax levy and restores the Deputy County
Clerk position in the County Clerk’s Office.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of Deputy County
Clerk. However, I have vetoed the additional property tax levy provided to the
County Clerk’s Office through this amendment for a levy savings of $84,714. In
light of the significant fiscal challenges facing all County departments, it is
necessary for the County Clerk to implement strategies to live within the personal
services allocation provided in my Recommended Budget.

Veto #7 Register of Deeds Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$198,694]
Amendment 1A041
This amendment denies the abolishment of three positions, including one position
each of Deputy Register of Deeds, Clerical Assistant 1 and Office Support
Assistant 2, the cost of which is completely offset by increased real estate fee
revenue.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of the Deputy
Register of Deeds, abolish the Clerical Assistant 1 position, abolish the Office
Support Assistant 2 position and reduce the expenditures of the Register of Deeds
by $198,694 for a levy savings of $198,694. In light of the significant fiscal
challenges facing all County departments, it is necessary for the Register of Deeds
to implement strategies to live within the personal services allocation provided in
my Recommended Budget.

Veto #8: Farm and Fish Hatchery
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A012
The budget I presented to the Board included the closure of the House of
Correction Farm and Fish Hatchery for a levy savings of $256,384. I have
consistently proposed the closure of the Farm and Fish Hatchery because its
operation is not a core county function and because it diverts valuable resources
away from activities supporting staff and inmate safety at the House of
Correction. The above referenced amendment restores the operation of the Farm
and Fish Hatchery.

CArcher_Email3016719

I have vetoed this amendment entirely to restore my intent to close the Farm and
Fish Hatchery in 2008.

Veto #9 House of Correction Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$342,618]
Amendment 1A049
This amendment restores $342,618 to the House of Correction budget for
contractual services expenditures related to AODA and job
development/assessment programs serving inmates at the Community
Correctional Center (CCC).
I am vetoing this amendment in its entirety for a levy savings of $342,618. In
light of the County’s budget constraints and the pressure of unfunded and
underfunded State and Federal mandates, we must dedicate our public safety
dollars to core correctional services. Also, while this veto will eliminate
contractual services for AODA and job development/assessment for Huber
inmates, the budget still includes my proposal to fund a full-time Community
Services Coordinator to assist in matching offenders with existing programs
offered in the community.

Veto #10 Electronic Monitoring Monthly Briefings
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A048
This amendment requires the County Executive and the Superintendent of the
House of Correction to provide monthly briefings through October 2008 for the
Committee on Judiciary, Safety and General Services on the ongoing
development and implementation of the expanded home detention program.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that the County
Executive provide briefings to the Committee on the Judiciary, Safety and
General Services because the County Executive is an elected Constitutional
Officer not subject to the direction of the County Board or County Board
committees.

Veto #11 Funding for 211 Phone Line
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$300,000]
Amendment 1A006
Amendment 1A056

CArcher_Email3016720

These amendments provide an additional $200,000 in tax levy to the Department
of Health and Human Services and $100,000 in tax levy to the Department of
Health and Human Services Behavioral Health Division for the 211 phone line.
I am vetoing these amendments for a tax levy savings of $300,000 to reduce the
tax burden on Milwaukee County citizens. Unfortunately, the refusal of the State
of Wisconsin to properly fund mandated human services has necessitated the use
of millions of dollars of property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in
areas such as Income Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services
and Behavioral Health. This unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax
levy to the extent we might otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human
services such as the 211 line. It is also important to recognize that the budget still
will appropriate $200,000 for the 211 line per my original recommendation,
which is a substantial contribution to this function.

Veto #12 Behavioral Health Division Purchase of Services Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$302,016]
Amendment 1A001
This amendment provides an additional $302,016 in tax levy to the Department of
Health and Human Services-Behavioral Health Division for purchase of services
contracts with the AIDS Resource Center and Fighting Back, Inc. for AODA
prevention activities.
As noted above, unfortunately, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to properly
fund mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of
property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income
Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health.
This unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might
otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human services such as AODA prevention
and education activities. It is also important to recognize that the budget still will
appropriate more than $500,000 for these contracts per my original
recommendation, which is a substantial contribution to this function.

Veto #13 Architectural and Engineering Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A039
This amendment provides $150,000 to the Department of Public Works –
Architectural, Engineering and Environmental budget for the building inventory
and assessment program.

CArcher_Email3016721

I have vetoed this amendment entirely because there are sufficient resources in the
Department of Public Works to continue work on this initiative. My veto of this
item results in a tax levy savings of $150,000.

Veto #14 Transit Zone Fares
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A030
This amendment requires the Milwaukee County Transit System to prepare a zone
fare proposal for Waukesha County residents who use the Milwaukee County
transit services in the event Waukesha County institutes a zone fare for residents
of Milwaukee County who use Waukesha County transit services. Further, the
amendment requires the Milwaukee County Transit System to report its findings
back to the Transportation, Public Works and Transit Committee for Board
approval.
I am vetoing this amendment entirely because I believe it runs counter to
Milwaukee County’s need and desire to engage in productive discussions with
other Southeastern Wisconsin counties regarding regional transportation.

Veto #15 AODA Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$600,000]
Amendment 1A074
This amendment provides an additional $600,000 in tax levy in the Department of
Health and Human Services – Behavioral Health Division budget for AODA
services in 2008.
I am vetoing this amendment because I cannot support the use of tax levy to
replace the lost Federal funding related to the Access to Recovery grant. It is also
critical to note that the County’s AODA budget still will be nearly $18 million,
which is $4.5 million more than the amount provided prior to receipt of the
original ATR grant.

Veto #16 Youth Sports Authority Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$200,000]
Amendment 1A003
This amendment provides $200,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health and
Human Services - Delinquency Courts Services Division budget for funding for
the Youth Sports Authority.

CArcher_Email3016722

I am vetoing this amendment for a tax levy savings of $200,000 because this is
not a core function of County government that should be financed by the property
taxpayer. As noted above, unfortunately, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to
properly fund mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of
dollars of property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as
Income Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral
Health. This unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent
we might otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human services such as the
Youth Sports Authority.

Veto #17 Interim Disability Assistance Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$187,980]
Amendment 1A009
This amendment provides $187,980 in tax levy and 1.0 FTE ESS position for the
Interim Disability Assistance Program administered by the Department of Health
and Human Services.
I have vetoed this amendment because providing bridge funding for persons
awaiting Federal Social Security benefits is not the responsibly of local
government, but rather the responsibility of the Federal Government. As such,
these costs should not be borne by the local property taxpayer. Also, as noted
above, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to properly fund mandated human
services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of property tax levy
overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income Maintenance,
Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health. This
unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might
otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human services such as IDAP. This veto
reduces the property tax levy by $187,980.

Veto #18 Safe Alternatives For Youth Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A051
This amendment provides $150,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health and
Human Services – Delinquency and Court Services Division budget for
implementation of the Safe Alternatives for Youth Program in 2008 per the
provisions of Adopted County Board Resolution File No. 03-247, which
established the Safe Homes (subsequently re-named the Safe Alternatives for
Youth) oversight committee. Under the provisions of this amendment, the
Director of the Department of Health and Human Services is directed to execute a
contract in the amount of $12,000 with the Milwaukee Urban League for fiscal
agent services and is authorized to deposit $138,000 in SAY appropriations with

CArcher_Email3016723

the Milwaukee Urban League as fiscal agent, from which identified activities
under the program will be funded.
I have vetoed this amendment because – similar to other vetoes described above
in the area of Health and Human Services – I cannot support the appropriation of
local property tax dollars for certain non-mandated human services at a time when
the burden for local taxpayers continues to grow to fund mandated human
services that are not adequately funded by the State of Wisconsin. In addition, I
do not believe it is a core function of County government to provide grants for
educational, cultural and recreational activities for disadvantaged youth, and I
believe there are many higher priorities for our local human services dollars. This
veto results in a tax levy savings of $150,000.

Veto #19 Wading Pool Hours
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A 065
This amendment requires the Parks Director to staff the Milwaukee County
wading pools at staggered hours to ensure that some wading pools will open at
10:00 a.m. and some will remain open until 7:00 p.m. during the entire aquatics
season. Further, the amendment requires the Parks Director to report back to the
County Board with a 2008 wading pool schedule prior to the opening of the
aquatics season.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that wading
pools be staffed to ensure that some wading pools will open at 10:00 a.m. and
some will remain open until 7:00 p.m. during the entire aquatics season because I
believe the Parks Director should maintain the administrative and management
flexibility to establish wading pool hours based on usage, weather conditions and
maintenance needs.
I am confident the Parks Director will continue to work with the Board to ensure
appropriate availability of parks resources to County residents. My partial veto
retains the requirement that the Parks Director shall report back to the County
Board with a 2008 wading pool schedule prior to the opening of the aquatics
season.

Veto #20 Parks Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$2,851,979]
Amendment 1A066
The 2008 Parks Department budget I presented to the Board included the
restructuring of park maintenance staff that would have yielded a $2,035,050
property tax savings and increased the hours available for park maintenance by

CArcher_Email3016724

15,000—20,000 hours per year. This was accomplished by abolishing 81.0 FTE
Park Maintenance Worker positions, 31.0 FTE of which are vacant, providing
additional funding of $598,379 for seasonal maintenance staff, creating 14.0 FTE
Forestry Worker DOT positions and 6.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker 2 InCharge positions and over $1 million in the capital budget for the purchase of
labor-efficient capital equipment.
In addition, my recommended budget proposed abolishing 11.54 FTE positions
that were either vacant or proposed for abolishment by the Parks Department.
Positions proposed for abolishment included 3.0 FTE vacant Office Assistant 3
positions, 1.0 FTE Special Events Coordinator position, .50 FTE Special Events
Coordinator HR position, 3.0 vacant FTE Head Lifeguard positions, and 1.04 FTE
Park Intern – Athletics positions.
Finally, my budget recommendations included the abolishment of 1.0 FTE
Community Center Manager position and 2.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker
Assistant positions, leaving 1.0 FTE Community Center Manager position and 2.0
FTE Community Center Supervisor positions.
The above referenced amendment restored funding and authorization for 50.0
FTE Park Maintenance Worker positions, eliminated $598,379 for seasonal
maintenance staff, restored authorization for 16.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker
positions (but unfunds them) and maintains the creation and funding of 14.0 FTE
Forestry Worker DOT positions and the 6.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker InCharge positions as originally proposed. Further, the above noted amendment
restores position authorization, but unfunds 2.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker
Assistant positions, 1.0 FTE Special Events Coordinator position and .50 FTE
Special Events Coordinator HR position. While the amendment is ambiguous as
to the positions that are to be unfunded, it provides $209,713 in salary, social
security, active and legacy fringe benefit funding.
The amendment restores funding and position authorization for 1.0 FTE
Community Center Manager position and restores, but unfunds 2.0 FTE Park
Maintenance Worker Assistant positions related to Community Center operations.
Lastly, the amendment increases building repair and maintenance funding to
$165,888. I originally proposed $60,473.
The amendment provides an additional $3,646,657 in tax levy support.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to restore as closely as possible the
original proposal submitted with my 2008 Recommended Budget. Specifically,
my veto retains the abolishment of 50.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker positions
and removes $3.9 million in funding for these positions. Through my partial veto,
I have retained 16.0 FTE unfunded Park Maintenance Worker positions for no
fiscal impact as proposed by the Board. Further, while I have maintained the

CArcher_Email3016725

provisions of Amendment 1A058 that provide an additional $648,021 in operating
capital outlay for the Parks Department, I have vetoed the additional repair and
maintenance funds provided in this amendment and written down the lower
amount of $60,473 as I originally proposed. Finally, my partial veto retains
$598,379 for seasonal park workers by leaving sufficient funds in the Personal
Services account to cover additional seasonal staff.
In addition to the above, my partial veto restores the abolishment and removes
funding for 1.0 FTE Community Center Manager position.
Lastly, my partial veto restores authorization, but unfunds 2.0 FTE Park
Maintenance Worker Assistant positions, 1.0 FTE Special Events Coordinator
position, and .50 FTE Special Events Coordinator HR position.
To reflect the above, I have written down the Personal Services expenditures
without fringe benefits to $18,508,535. I believe that this approach will provide
for additional hours of seasonal maintenance in the parks at a much lower cost for
taxpayers and is precisely the type of innovative approach to providing services
that the County’s fiscal constraints and its taxpayers demand and deserve.

Veto# 21: UW-Extension Contract
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$172,533]
Amendment 1A 018
This amendment denies the proposed termination of Milwaukee County’s contract
with the Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin System effective 2008
and restores funding to the 2007 levy for the UW-Extension by increasing
expenditures by $293,613 and increasing revenues by $121,080 for a net tax levy
increase of $172,533.
I have exercised my partial veto authority to eliminate the continuation of this
contract, remove the expenditure of $293,613, the revenue of 121,080 and the tax
levy of $172,533. As partially vetoed, Milwaukee County’s contract would
terminate with the Board of Regents effective 2008. My partial veto retains the
$37,507 for rent and related lease expenses for the first four months of 2008.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to affect the termination of the contract
and the removal of funding for the UW-Extension contract because I believe that
these funds are better spent on higher priority core County functions.

Veto #22 Capital Budget Marcus Center Ballroom
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1B013

CArcher_Email3016726

This amendment authorizes $200,000 in general obligation bonding for the
replacement of the partition system in the Marcus Center ballroom.
I am vetoing this amendment in its entirety to bring the total 2008 general
obligation bond issue to a level within the established Board policy. County
Board policy indicates that 2008 corporate purpose bonds be limited to a total of
$30 million. As adopted by the Board, the estimated total corporate purpose bond
issue for 2008 would total $30,120,000 or $120,000 above the Board imposed
cap. By vetoing project WO037 – Marcus Center Ballroom Operable Partition
Replacement, 2008 Corporate purpose bonding would total $29,920,000.
I have vetoed this project to reduce the general obligation bond amount in 2008 to
a level consistent with the County Board policy that is designed to limit long-term
fiscal obligations for County property taxpayers.
Veto # 23 Tax Levy
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$9,025,482]
File No. 07379
I am vetoing the Final 2008 Tax Levy for 2008 General County Purposes from
$250,038,473 to 241,012,991, a decrease of $9,025,482.

THE CHANGE FROM 2007 LEVY TO CEX ADOPTED IS -136,751

Cynthia Archer
Fiscal and Budget Administrator
Department of Administrative Services

Milwaukee, WI 53233
Direct: (414) 278-4179
Fax: (414) 223-1245

I have exercised my veto authority as follows:

Veto #1 County Board Salary Increases
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A 077
Amended Section 17.99 General Ordinances of Milwaukee County relating to the salaries
of the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors and the County Executive
This amendment increases personal service expenditures by $29,851 and reduces
services by the same amount in the County Board Office and authorizes an
increase in Milwaukee County Supervisors’ salaries of 4% effective April 1, 2008
to remain at that level for the duration of the 2008-2012 term.
I have partially vetoed this provision and entirely vetoed the modifications to
Ordinance 17.99 to avoid reducing the budget for the County Board Office, but to
remove the authorization for the increased pay for County Board Supervisors.
I have vetoed this provision because I do not believe this provision should have
been considered as a last-minute amendment to the budget, but more
appropriately should have been advanced through the Personnel Committee to
ensure full public debate of this policy and fiscal matter.

Veto #2 Land Sales and Inclusive Housing Fund
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$1,000,000]
Amendment 1B022 & 1CO14
This amendment modifies the Land Sales budget to reflect the potential sale of the
County Grounds Northeast Quadrant to UW-Milwaukee and allocates $1.0
million of land sale revenue and expenditure authority to the Capital
Improvements budget for project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the listing of the sale of the County
Grounds Northeast Quadrant as a potential land sale in 2008, retain $1.0 million
of revenue in the Land Sales budget, but eliminate the reallocation of $1.0 million
in land sale revenue to the Capital Improvement project WO043-Inclusive
Housing Fund. My partial veto also removes the authorized expenditure of $1.0
million for the Inclusive Housing Fund resulting in a levy savings of $1.0 million.
I am concerned about the addition of $1.0 million to the Land Sales budget based
on the sale of the Northeast Quadrant. My concern is not over whether this sale
should take place, as I am very excited about the plans for a UWM School of
Engineering on the County Grounds, and I strongly believe that the sale of this
parcel for that purpose is the right move for the citizens of Milwaukee County.

CArcher_Email3016730

Instead, my concern is whether this sale can be consummated by the end of 2008.
Because one of the biggest obstacles to an expeditious sale is potential delay by
the County Board, the Board’s insertion of this provision into the Budget allows
me to feel more comfortable in retaining this provision. I would remind
Supervisors, however, that they have a responsibility to join me in aggressively
moving this project forward so that we can indeed realize this revenue in 2008.
I am vetoing the provision allocating $1.0 million from the Land Sales budget to
the Capital Improvements budget for project WO043-Inclusive Housing Fund.
The budget I presented and ultimately adopted by the Board already includes $1.0
million for the construction of housing for individuals with mental illness under
the auspices of the new Housing Division in the Department of Health and
Human Services. Unlike the Inclusive Housing Fund, this fund for special needs
housing is governed by clear criteria proposed by my administration and adopted
by the County Board, and it is strategically designed to address significant
programmatic concerns in the Behavioral Health Division, including
overcrowding in its acute inpatient units and Psychiatric Crisis Service.
Conversely, the specific purpose of the Inclusive Housing Fund has never been
defined and it has not been determined how this fund is consistent with the core
mission and strategic objectives of Milwaukee County. In light of the recognized
need for additional affordable housing in Milwaukee County, my Recommended
Budget did propose allocating surplus land sales revenue to the Inclusive Housing
Fund so that we could develop a plan for the use of these funds and utilize them if
they materialized due to a surplus. However, in light of our fiscal constraints and
the appropriation of $1.0 million for special needs housing, I cannot justify
dedicating an additional $1.0 million of direct property tax levy for this purpose.

Veto #3: Courts Staffing
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$438,907]
Amendment 1A045
The Courts budget I presented to the Board recommended the abolishment of 4.0
FTE vacant Clerical Assistant 1 positions (two of which were also unfunded in
2007), the abolishment of 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants
and the abolishment of 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns. This amendment restores
and provides funding for two of the four Clerical Assistant 1 positions, the 2.0
FTE Deputy Court Clerk Judicial Assistants and the 9.0 Legal Research Interns.
Under the amendment, 2.0 FTE Clerical Assistant 1 positions would remain but
would be unfunded in 2008. Finally, this amendment reduces the proposed lump
sum salary adjustment for the Courts by increasing funding for personal services
by $167,396. In total, this amendment provides an additional $850,885 in tax
levy for the above noted restorations.
I have partially vetoed this provision to retain the authorization and full funding
of the 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns ($411,977) and to retain the authorization

CArcher_Email3016731

for the 2.0 FTE Clerical Assistant 1 unfunded positions in the Register in Probate
Division as approved by the Board. However, my partial veto restores the
abolishment and eliminates the funding for the 2.0 FTE vacant Deputy Court
Clerk Judicial Assistants and 2.0 FTE Clerical Assistant 1 positions for a levy
savings of $271,512. Further, by writing down the reduction in the lump sum
salary adjustment by $1, my partial veto will restore a lump sum reduction of
$1,400,790 and a levy savings of $167,395.
I have retained the 9.0 FTE Legal Research Interns because of the Chief Judge’s
expressed concern about the impact of such a reduction on the operations of the
Courts. However, I continue to believe that abolishing 4.0 FTE vacant support
positions will not jeopardize the operations of the Courts and that the lump sum
reduction proposed in my recommended budget is manageable.

Veto #4: State Funding for Courts System/Appropriation for Contigencies
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$2,000,000]
Amendment 1C009
The final State Budget did not include approximately $2.0 million in additional
State aid for the administration of the State Court System in Milwaukee County as
anticipated by the Courts in their 2008 budget request and in the 2008
Recommended Budget. The County budget as adopted by the Board did not
adjust the projected state aid for the Courts as reflected in final provisions of the
State Budget. As a result, as adopted, the Courts budget includes approximately
$2.0 million in State revenue that will not materialize in 2008. However, the
County Board, under Amendment 1C009, appropriated an additional $3.0 million
to the appropriation for contingencies to “help partially mitigate State revenues
that were not realized upon passage of the 2007-09 State Budget in late October
2007.”
The County Budget as adopted by the Board establishes expenditure authority of
$49,280,945, revenue of $12,573,524 and tax levy of $36,707,421 for the
Combined Court Related Operations 2008 budget. Amendment 1C009
appropriated an additional $3,000,000 in tax levy for the Appropriation for
Contingencies as indicated above.
I am partially vetoing the budget to reduce the budgeted revenues for the
Combined Court Related Operations budget by $2,000,000 and reduce the
authorized expenditures for the Courts by $2,000,000. Further, I am partially
vetoing Appropriation for Contingencies (Amendment 1C009) to reduce by
$2,000,000 the increase of $3,000,000 provided by the Board.
The impact of this partial veto is to reduce the additional funds appropriated to the
contingency fund by $2,000,0000 and establish Court expenditure authority at
$47,280,945 and Court revenues at $10,573,524. This partial veto retains the

CArcher_Email3016732

Board adopted levy of $36,707,421 for the Combined Court Related Operations
as adopted by the Board.
I am using my veto authority to adjust the Combined Court Related Operations
budget to reflect the realities of the final State Budget. I do not believe the failure
of the State to adequately fund the State Court System should result in shifting
these costs to Milwaukee County property taxpayers. My intent in reducing the
increase to the contingency fund adopted by the Board by $2.0 million is to
prevent the shift of these costs to the tax levy, and I hope the County Board will
join me in 2008 in opposing any contingency fund request to address this shortfall
in State support to the Courts. The fiscal impact of this veto is a reduction in tax
levy of $2.0 million, a reduction in state aid to the Courts of $2.0 million and a
corresponding reduction in Court expenditures by $2.0 million.
I extend to the Chief Judge and County Board Chairman an invitation to continue
working with me to convince the Governor and the State Legislature to fulfill
their responsibility to adequately fund the State Courts, and my administration
also stands ready to assist the Chief Judge in developing a plan for making the
operational adjustments that will be required in the absence of additional state
support.

Veto #5: Child Support Enforcement Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$135,812]
Amendment 1A014
This amendment restores funding for 1.0 FTE Child Support Coordinator, 2.5
FTE Legal Counsel Child Support 1 positions and 3.0 FTE Paralegal positions in
the Department of Child Support Enforcement.
I have vetoed this provision in its entirety because I will not support the use of
property tax levy to replace lost federal funding for Child Support Enforcement.
Similar to the failure of State government to fulfill its fiscal responsibilities, we
are seeing an increasing trend by the Federal government to pass the financial
burden onto to local governments. As a result of the Federal Deficit Reduction
Act, Milwaukee County will lose approximately $8.0 million in federal funding
during 2008 for Child Support Enforcement. As the Federal Government backs
away from its responsibilities, increasing pressure is placed on local governments
to fill the gap. To be clear, I will not use property tax levy to replace lost Federal
funding. Consequently, I have vetoed this provision in its entirety because I will
not support the use of property tax levy to replace lost federal funding for Child
Support Enforcement.

Veto #6: County Clerk Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$84,714]
Amendment 1A016
This amendment provides $84,714 in tax levy and restores the Deputy County
Clerk position in the County Clerk’s Office.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of Deputy County
Clerk. However, I have vetoed the additional property tax levy provided to the
County Clerk’s Office through this amendment for a levy savings of $84,714. In
light of the significant fiscal challenges facing all County departments, it is
necessary for the County Clerk to implement strategies to live within the personal
services allocation provided in my Recommended Budget.

Veto #7 Register of Deeds Positions and Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$198,694]
Amendment 1A041
This amendment denies the abolishment of three positions, including one position
each of Deputy Register of Deeds, Clerical Assistant 1 and Office Support
Assistant 2, the cost of which is completely offset by increased real estate fee
revenue.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to retain the position of the Deputy
Register of Deeds, abolish the Clerical Assistant 1 position, abolish the Office
Support Assistant 2 position and reduce the expenditures of the Register of Deeds
by $198,694 for a levy savings of $198,694. In light of the significant fiscal
challenges facing all County departments, it is necessary for the Register of Deeds
to implement strategies to live within the personal services allocation provided in
my Recommended Budget.

Veto #8: Farm and Fish Hatchery
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A012
The budget I presented to the Board included the closure of the House of
Correction Farm and Fish Hatchery for a levy savings of $256,384. I have
consistently proposed the closure of the Farm and Fish Hatchery because its
operation is not a core county function and because it diverts valuable resources
away from activities supporting staff and inmate safety at the House of
Correction. The above referenced amendment restores the operation of the Farm
and Fish Hatchery.

CArcher_Email3016734

I have vetoed this amendment entirely to restore my intent to close the Farm and
Fish Hatchery in 2008.

Veto #9 House of Correction Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$342,618]
Amendment 1A049
This amendment restores $342,618 to the House of Correction budget for
contractual services expenditures related to AODA and job
development/assessment programs serving inmates at the Community
Correctional Center (CCC).
I am vetoing this amendment in its entirety for a levy savings of $342,618. In
light of the County’s budget constraints and the pressure of unfunded and
underfunded State and Federal mandates, we must dedicate our public safety
dollars to core correctional services. Also, while this veto will eliminate
contractual services for AODA and job development/assessment for Huber
inmates, the budget still includes my proposal to fund a full-time Community
Services Coordinator to assist in matching offenders with existing programs
offered in the community.

Veto #10 Electronic Monitoring Monthly Briefings
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A048
This amendment requires the County Executive and the Superintendent of the
House of Correction to provide monthly briefings through October 2008 for the
Committee on Judiciary, Safety and General Services on the ongoing
development and implementation of the expanded home detention program.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that the County
Executive provide briefings to the Committee on the Judiciary, Safety and
General Services because the County Executive is an elected Constitutional
Officer not subject to the direction of the County Board or County Board
committees.

Veto #11 Funding for 211 Phone Line
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$300,000]
Amendment 1A006
Amendment 1A056

CArcher_Email3016735

These amendments provide an additional $200,000 in tax levy to the Department
of Health and Human Services and $100,000 in tax levy to the Department of
Health and Human Services Behavioral Health Division for the 211 phone line.
I am vetoing these amendments for a tax levy savings of $300,000 to reduce the
tax burden on Milwaukee County citizens. Unfortunately, the refusal of the State
of Wisconsin to properly fund mandated human services has necessitated the use
of millions of dollars of property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in
areas such as Income Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services
and Behavioral Health. This unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax
levy to the extent we might otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human
services such as the 211 line. It is also important to recognize that the budget still
will appropriate $200,000 for the 211 line per my original recommendation,
which is a substantial contribution to this function.

Veto #12 Behavioral Health Division Purchase of Services Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$302,016]
Amendment 1A001
This amendment provides an additional $302,016 in tax levy to the Department of
Health and Human Services-Behavioral Health Division for purchase of services
contracts with the AIDS Resource Center and Fighting Back, Inc. for AODA
prevention activities.
As noted above, unfortunately, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to properly
fund mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of
property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income
Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health.
This unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might
otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human services such as AODA prevention
and education activities. It is also important to recognize that the budget still will
appropriate more than $500,000 for these contracts per my original
recommendation, which is a substantial contribution to this function.

Veto #13 Architectural and Engineering Contractual Services
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A039
This amendment provides $150,000 to the Department of Public Works –
Architectural, Engineering and Environmental budget for the building inventory
and assessment program.

CArcher_Email3016736

I have vetoed this amendment entirely because there are sufficient resources in the
Department of Public Works to continue work on this initiative. My veto of this
item results in a tax levy savings of $150,000.

Veto #14 Transit Zone Fares
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A030
This amendment requires the Milwaukee County Transit System to prepare a zone
fare proposal for Waukesha County residents who use the Milwaukee County
transit services in the event Waukesha County institutes a zone fare for residents
of Milwaukee County who use Waukesha County transit services. Further, the
amendment requires the Milwaukee County Transit System to report its findings
back to the Transportation, Public Works and Transit Committee for Board
approval.
I am vetoing this amendment entirely because I believe it runs counter to
Milwaukee County’s need and desire to engage in productive discussions with
other Southeastern Wisconsin counties regarding regional transportation.

Veto #15 AODA Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$600,000]
Amendment 1A074
This amendment provides an additional $600,000 in tax levy in the Department of
Health and Human Services – Behavioral Health Division budget for AODA
services in 2008.
I am vetoing this amendment because I cannot support the use of tax levy to
replace the lost Federal funding related to the Access to Recovery grant. It is also
critical to note that the County’s AODA budget still will be nearly $18 million,
which is $4.5 million more than the amount provided prior to receipt of the
original ATR grant.

Veto #16 Youth Sports Authority Funding
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$200,000]
Amendment 1A003
This amendment provides $200,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health and
Human Services - Delinquency Courts Services Division budget for funding for
the Youth Sports Authority.

CArcher_Email3016737

I am vetoing this amendment for a tax levy savings of $200,000 because this is
not a core function of County government that should be financed by the property
taxpayer. As noted above, unfortunately, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to
properly fund mandated human services has necessitated the use of millions of
dollars of property tax levy overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as
Income Maintenance, Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral
Health. This unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent
we might otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human services such as the
Youth Sports Authority.

Veto #17 Interim Disability Assistance Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$187,980]
Amendment 1A009
This amendment provides $187,980 in tax levy and 1.0 FTE ESS position for the
Interim Disability Assistance Program administered by the Department of Health
and Human Services.
I have vetoed this amendment because providing bridge funding for persons
awaiting Federal Social Security benefits is not the responsibly of local
government, but rather the responsibility of the Federal Government. As such,
these costs should not be borne by the local property taxpayer. Also, as noted
above, the refusal of the State of Wisconsin to properly fund mandated human
services has necessitated the use of millions of dollars of property tax levy
overmatch to pay for those services in areas such as Income Maintenance,
Disabilities Services, Delinquency Services and Behavioral Health. This
unfortunate reality prevents us from utilizing tax levy to the extent we might
otherwise desire to fund non-mandated human services such as IDAP. This veto
reduces the property tax levy by $187,980.

Veto #18 Safe Alternatives For Youth Program
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$150,000]
Amendment 1A051
This amendment provides $150,000 in tax levy in the Department of Health and
Human Services – Delinquency and Court Services Division budget for
implementation of the Safe Alternatives for Youth Program in 2008 per the
provisions of Adopted County Board Resolution File No. 03-247, which
established the Safe Homes (subsequently re-named the Safe Alternatives for
Youth) oversight committee. Under the provisions of this amendment, the
Director of the Department of Health and Human Services is directed to execute a
contract in the amount of $12,000 with the Milwaukee Urban League for fiscal
agent services and is authorized to deposit $138,000 in SAY appropriations with

CArcher_Email3016738

the Milwaukee Urban League as fiscal agent, from which identified activities
under the program will be funded.
I have vetoed this amendment because – similar to other vetoes described above
in the area of Health and Human Services – I cannot support the appropriation of
local property tax dollars for certain non-mandated human services at a time when
the burden for local taxpayers continues to grow to fund mandated human
services that are not adequately funded by the State of Wisconsin. In addition, I
do not believe it is a core function of County government to provide grants for
educational, cultural and recreational activities for disadvantaged youth, and I
believe there are many higher priorities for our local human services dollars. This
veto results in a tax levy savings of $150,000.

Veto #19 Wading Pool Hours
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1A 065
This amendment requires the Parks Director to staff the Milwaukee County
wading pools at staggered hours to ensure that some wading pools will open at
10:00 a.m. and some will remain open until 7:00 p.m. during the entire aquatics
season. Further, the amendment requires the Parks Director to report back to the
County Board with a 2008 wading pool schedule prior to the opening of the
aquatics season.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to remove the requirement that wading
pools be staffed to ensure that some wading pools will open at 10:00 a.m. and
some will remain open until 7:00 p.m. during the entire aquatics season because I
believe the Parks Director should maintain the administrative and management
flexibility to establish wading pool hours based on usage, weather conditions and
maintenance needs.
I am confident the Parks Director will continue to work with the Board to ensure
appropriate availability of parks resources to County residents. My partial veto
retains the requirement that the Parks Director shall report back to the County
Board with a 2008 wading pool schedule prior to the opening of the aquatics
season.

Veto #20 Parks Funding and Positions
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$2,851,979]
Amendment 1A066
The 2008 Parks Department budget I presented to the Board included the
restructuring of park maintenance staff that would have yielded a $2,035,050
property tax savings and increased the hours available for park maintenance by

CArcher_Email3016739

15,000—20,000 hours per year. This was accomplished by abolishing 81.0 FTE
Park Maintenance Worker positions, 31.0 FTE of which are vacant, providing
additional funding of $598,379 for seasonal maintenance staff, creating 14.0 FTE
Forestry Worker DOT positions and 6.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker 2 InCharge positions and over $1 million in the capital budget for the purchase of
labor-efficient capital equipment.
In addition, my recommended budget proposed abolishing 11.54 FTE positions
that were either vacant or proposed for abolishment by the Parks Department.
Positions proposed for abolishment included 3.0 FTE vacant Office Assistant 3
positions, 1.0 FTE Special Events Coordinator position, .50 FTE Special Events
Coordinator HR position, 3.0 vacant FTE Head Lifeguard positions, and 1.04 FTE
Park Intern – Athletics positions.
Finally, my budget recommendations included the abolishment of 1.0 FTE
Community Center Manager position and 2.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker
Assistant positions, leaving 1.0 FTE Community Center Manager position and 2.0
FTE Community Center Supervisor positions.
The above referenced amendment restored funding and authorization for 50.0
FTE Park Maintenance Worker positions, eliminated $598,379 for seasonal
maintenance staff, restored authorization for 16.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker
positions (but unfunds them) and maintains the creation and funding of 14.0 FTE
Forestry Worker DOT positions and the 6.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker InCharge positions as originally proposed. Further, the above noted amendment
restores position authorization, but unfunds 2.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker
Assistant positions, 1.0 FTE Special Events Coordinator position and .50 FTE
Special Events Coordinator HR position. While the amendment is ambiguous as
to the positions that are to be unfunded, it provides $209,713 in salary, social
security, active and legacy fringe benefit funding.
The amendment restores funding and position authorization for 1.0 FTE
Community Center Manager position and restores, but unfunds 2.0 FTE Park
Maintenance Worker Assistant positions related to Community Center operations.
Lastly, the amendment increases building repair and maintenance funding to
$165,888. I originally proposed $60,473.
The amendment provides an additional $3,646,657 in tax levy support.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to restore as closely as possible the
original proposal submitted with my 2008 Recommended Budget. Specifically,
my veto retains the abolishment of 50.0 FTE Park Maintenance Worker positions
and removes $3.9 million in funding for these positions. Through my partial veto,
I have retained 16.0 FTE unfunded Park Maintenance Worker positions for no
fiscal impact as proposed by the Board. Further, while I have maintained the

CArcher_Email3016740

provisions of Amendment 1A058 that provide an additional $648,021 in operating
capital outlay for the Parks Department, I have vetoed the additional repair and
maintenance funds provided in this amendment and written down the lower
amount of $60,473 as I originally proposed. Finally, my partial veto retains
$598,379 for seasonal park workers by leaving sufficient funds in the Personal
Services account to cover additional seasonal staff.
In addition to the above, my partial veto restores the abolishment and removes
funding for 1.0 FTE Community Center Manager position.
Lastly, my partial veto restores authorization, but unfunds 2.0 FTE Park
Maintenance Worker Assistant positions, 1.0 FTE Special Events Coordinator
position, and .50 FTE Special Events Coordinator HR position.
To reflect the above, I have written down the Personal Services expenditures
without fringe benefits to $18,508,535. I believe that this approach will provide
for additional hours of seasonal maintenance in the parks at a much lower cost for
taxpayers and is precisely the type of innovative approach to providing services
that the County’s fiscal constraints and its taxpayers demand and deserve.

Veto# 21: UW-Extension Contract
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$172,533]
Amendment 1A 018
This amendment denies the proposed termination of Milwaukee County’s contract
with the Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin System effective 2008
and restores funding to the 2007 levy for the UW-Extension by increasing
expenditures by $293,613 and increasing revenues by $121,080 for a net tax levy
increase of $172,533.
I have exercised my partial veto authority to eliminate the continuation of this
contract, remove the expenditure of $293,613, the revenue of 121,080 and the tax
levy of $172,533. As partially vetoed, Milwaukee County’s contract would
terminate with the Board of Regents effective 2008. My partial veto retains the
$37,507 for rent and related lease expenses for the first four months of 2008.
I have partially vetoed this amendment to affect the termination of the contract
and the removal of funding for the UW-Extension contract because I believe that
these funds are better spent on higher priority core County functions.

Veto #22 Capital Budget Marcus Center Ballroom
[Levy Change from Board Action: $0]
Amendment 1B013

CArcher_Email3016741

This amendment authorizes $200,000 in general obligation bonding for the
replacement of the partition system in the Marcus Center ballroom.
I am vetoing this amendment in its entirety to bring the total 2008 general
obligation bond issue to a level within the established Board policy. County
Board policy indicates that 2008 corporate purpose bonds be limited to a total of
$30 million. As adopted by the Board, the estimated total corporate purpose bond
issue for 2008 would total $30,120,000 or $120,000 above the Board imposed
cap. By vetoing project WO037 – Marcus Center Ballroom Operable Partition
Replacement, 2008 Corporate purpose bonding would total $29,920,000.
I have vetoed this project to reduce the general obligation bond amount in 2008 to
a level consistent with the County Board policy that is designed to limit long-term
fiscal obligations for County property taxpayers.
Veto # 23 Tax Levy
[Levy Change from Board Action: -$9,127,378]
File No. 07379
I am vetoing the Final 2008 Tax Levy for 2008 General County Purposes from
$250,038,473 to 240,911,095, a decrease of $9,127,378.

spattering of analysts off for all or parts of Thanksgiving week. We are
coordinating work for the next Finance cycle. Molly's instruction to staff is
to have all finance cycle stuff done before they leave for Thanksgiving. The
deadline for stuff to get to DAS is this Thursday. The deadline to get stuff
to Finance is Tuesday the 27th with agenda setting a week later on Tuesday,
December 4. [Don't know why we have to get everything down a full week before
agenda setting??] Come see me if you want to discuss.
Pam, your stuff should be done before you leave as well.

DATE:

TO:

The Honorable County Board of Supervisors

FROM:

County Executive Scott Walker

SUBJECT:

VETO OF FILE NO. 07-364

I am vetoing County Board File No. 07-364 pursuant to the authority granted to me by
Article IV, Section 23(a) of the Wisconsin Constitution and Section 59.17(6) of the
Wisconsin Statutes.
The County Board adopted a resolution on November 1, 2007 authorizing and directing
the Director of the Division of Economic Development to renegotiate the Purchase
Option/Right of First Refusal Provision of the Purchase and Sale Agreement between
Milwaukee County and the Wisconsin Lutheran College for the sale of the 8.62-acre
parcel containing the county greenhouses.
Members of this County Board have repeatedly reaffirmed that the Board is the policymaking body for Milwaukee County. In as much as this is the case, the County Board as
an entity is sending a dangerous message to those who may want to negotiate in good
faith in the future if we renege on this agreement that the County Board originally
approved in February of 2004.
Furthermore, there is no guarantee that the County will receive a more favorable sale
price per acre in the future or realize a significant increase in the current market value.
In fact, the purchase price could actually decrease.
I believe we should honor the agreement in place, vacate the existing property and begin
the construction of a new greenhouse at the Mitchell Park Domes. The funding for the
building of new greenhouses is not dependent on the sale of land to Wisconsin Lutheran
College. I do not believe it is good public policy for the County Board to stop forward
progress in the community.

working on vetoes, but I wanted to make sure that they were ready when you were
done. James has two that he will complete by the end of the day tomorrow.
Just so you know, I have been keeping Rob informed of the performance
contracting report so he knows what is going on.

Molly and Pam are off on Friday and all of the following week. We have a
spattering of analysts off for all or parts of Thanksgiving week. We are
coordinating work for the next Finance cycle. Molly's instruction to staff is
to have all finance cycle stuff done before they leave for Thanksgiving. The
deadline for stuff to get to DAS is this Thursday. The deadline to get stuff
to Finance is Tuesday the 27th with agenda setting a week later on Tuesday,
December 4. [Don't know why we have to get everything down a full week before
agenda setting??] Come see me if you want to discuss.
Pam, your stuff should be done before you leave as well.

        Year-End Cutoff Dates





Rob
I have a question concerning year end cutoff dates. In July we accepted a
quote from Facilities Management to have some remodeling done in our office.
They are to start the project before the end of the year - will there be a
problem accessing our funds for this as the project is over the $10,000 limit?

Cindy,
Great to run into the other week....sorry to hear you guys got shortened up a
bit in the budget deal, but I'm sure you'll figure it out.
Let's get lunch sometime soon and catch up.
Does this Friday work for you? If not, perhaps sometime next week?
Talk to you soon.

Should we send your veto message to the Wheeler Report. When I worked for
Carol the Wheeler Report posted a link to her entire veto message. I am not
sure how that was done (if her office sent it to them?), but I know Ed has an
electonic copy. Just a thought. It is posted on WisPolitics.

computer aid
Wednesday, November 14, 2007 9:47:25 AM

I cannot reach Cady but I left him a voice message. I basically told him that
DOR re-estimated the equalized value for the Village of Brown Deer and that DAS
updated the formula to reflect such. I also said that according to Molly and
Pam, DAS has always had to the flexibility to update the computer aid number as
the budget moved through the process. I asked him to give me a call so we
could discuss and indicated I would like for all of us to be on the same page
before this afternoon's Board meeting. I will let you know what I hear back.

Re: today
Wednesday, November 14, 2007 9:51:22 AM

Dan, I am not sure what your comment in terms of "what to do with the computer
aid number" means. My feeling is the number stands as submitted with the
vetoes. The issue for us, I think, is talking to Cady to convince him that it
was appropriate based on past practice for DAS to update this number based on
the new equalized value number we got from DOR. Our attempt is to get us all
on the same page before this afternoon, but I think any changes to actual
number would have to occur on the Board floor.
Thanks for getting everything set up for today!

Per discussions with Steve Cady, our computer program should be set such that
the recalculation of computer aid at the end of the veto meeting be based on
the original formula as adopted by the Board. The reestimated equalized value
for the Village of Brown Deer should not be included.

John Martin fund transfer
Tuesday, November 20, 2007 10:12:09 AM

I just saw the fund transfer submitted by DTPW. It appears the fund transfer
transfers money from various DTPW accounts to DAS to cover the cost of the John
Martin payout. This seemed odd to me since John Martin is a cross charge from
DAS to DTPW. I confirmed this with Scott Manske. Based on this it would
appear that the fund transfer should affect only accounts within DTPW. Chad,
please work with Manske and George to ensure this is done appropriately.
Thanks.

Good for you
Tuesday, November 20, 2007 12:18:07 PM

Dean! I just saw your appointment on the Wheeler Report. Good for you!
I kind of lost track of you once I left Corrections. I did a stint up in Brown
County as Carol Kelso's Director of Administration and am now in Milwaukee
County as the county budget director trying to help Walker keep a check on
taxes. Let me tell you, local government is like the wild, wild west of
government. Everything is up close and personal and the local politics can be
brutal. I still have my house in Madison (you remember, kitty corner from the
old Grossahns house). Other than that, I have lost touch with most of my state
government pals, but I did want to congratulate you.

I delegated this decision to Molly and Chad since it came up as I was leaving
for my long weekend. I thought it was just a fund transfer issue. I don't
know much about the details of this, but obviously there is a problem. I will
contact Stephanie and get to the bottom of it.

Our resolutions/contracts are due to the Board soon.
This must be settled by Monday or the contract amount with explanation will
appear on the report.
I am expecting either:
The reversal of this allocation
OR a meeting on Monday with the County Executives staff to discuss it.
The past agreed to split of this money was65/35 until DPW started playing
games. Please note that all the below correspondence was with DPW Transit and
not even the courtesy to cc us.

CArcher_Email3016815

To repeat- this was worked out and agreed to last year during our budget
hearing with the Executive.
If a decision was going to be made unilaterally to change the split it should
have been shared with us during the budget process so we could have rebutted.
Please respond as soon as possible so we can plan.
Much Thanks

This is very serious . I thought we settled last year the ongoing split of
this allocation.
So now not only do we bail them out with payment but they once again attempt to
do an end run on money that we fought and advocated for,
The equity and fairness shown us by a fellow department is apalling.
Please help us correct this now.

I strongly object to this allocation!
The 2007 allocation was $625,157 to Aging and $1,441,028 to Transit Plus. You
have recommended a $32,133 decrease to Aging, a decline of more than 5.1% in
Aging's allocation. What is the basis for this decision? Transit Plus, under
your plan, receives an increase of $49,616 - all of the increase in the state's
allocation - $17,483 ($2,083,668 - 2,006,185) plus $32,133 from Aging. You are
ignoring what occurred in 2007 and returning to the error of 2006.
The 2006 split resulted from a misunderstanding between Steve Agostini and
Director Stein about what the Department was willing except or needed from the
S85.21 split to support it's specialized transportation programs. Remember
that the state made significant increase in 2006 and 2007 in S85.21 funding.
For many years (through 2005) the split was 65% to Transit Plus and 35% to
Aging. In 2006, due to the misunderstanding between Steve Agostini and
Director Stein, the allocations changed to about 71.5% Transit Plus and 28.5%.
Following discussions between DPW/MTS-Transit Plus, Aging , and DAS for the
2007 allocation, it was agree that something close to a 70/30 split was more
appropriate and received the support of the County Executive. While the goal
was 70/30, the actual allocations was closer to 69.75 Transit /30.25 Aging in
2007.
I again strongly urge that the 70/30 split remain in place. The 2007
allocation "favored" Aging only in the sense that it revised the excessive 2006
drop in Aging's allocation. The 2007 "correction" should be retained and we
use a 70/30 split for 2008 and beyond.
CArcher_Email3016817

Based upon a 2008 grant of $2,083,668 from the State, DPW/MTS-Transit Plus
would receive $1,458,568 and Aging would receive $625,100 based upon a straight
70/30 split.
I have been managing Aging's transportation programs since 1989, and only since
2006 has there been this continuing assault on our program serving 2,000 frail
seniors ineligible for Transit Plus!
If you have questions,please contact Ms. Stein (289-6876) or myself

Cindy,
The State's budget provides the County $2,083,668 in Specialized Transportation
Aid, which is generally split between the Transit Division and the Department
on Aging. There is an additional $13,644 represented in this grant award not
yet budgeted.
I'm recommending we split these dollars in accordance with the last couple of
years by providing a 72% share and the Department on Aging the remaining 28% to
the Department on Aging. This allocation covers the adopted 2008 budget amount
for both divisions and allows the Transit Division to claim the entire $13,644
in additional grant money.
I've spoken with Dan Schreiber on this and he agrees this is fair, especially
given that a similar decision last year favored the Department on Aging by
about $30,000.
Please confirm you are ok with this approach so Steve Nigh may complete his
report for the next cycle.
See below for additional background.

Cindy The state's recently passed budget includes $2,083,668 in Specialized
Transportation (85.21) funds for Milwaukee County in 2008. These annual grant
funds are budgeted and used by the county's paratransit program and the
Department on Aging. Prior to 2006, the grant was historically split 65/35
with Transit Plus getting 65% and Aging 35%. In 2006 and 2007, DAS determined
each department's portion of the county's allocation.
Accordingly, please provide each department's share of the $2,083,668 grant for
2008. A prompt response would be appreciated as a required public hearing on
the grant program is scheduled for 12/5/07 and publication of the public
hearing notice is scheduled for 11/18/07.
For your information, attached is a chart depicting the county's total 85.21
allocation and departmental split since 1993.

Stephanie, I am trying to reach you so call me when you are free.
I had no idea this was such a big issue. My brief understanding was the
allocation of some $13,000 and it seemed like Molly and Chad had covered all
the bases. In any event, lets get to the bottom of it. Sorry I was not on top
of it. I was swamped in vetoes and then got the heck out of here as soon as
they were done for some much needed R&R. The good news is I am feeling human
again.

Aid, which is generally split between the Transit Division and the Department

yet budgeted.
I'm recommending we split these dollars in accordance with the last couple of
years by providing a 72% share and the Department on Aging the remaining 28% to
the Department on Aging. This allocation covers the adopted 2008 budget amount
for both divisions and allows the Transit Division to claim the entire $13,644
in additional grant money.
I've spoken with Dan Schreiber on this and he agrees this is fair, especially
given that a similar decision last year favored the Department on Aging by
about $30,000.
Please confirm you are ok with this approach so Steve Nigh may complete his
report for the next cycle.

        2008 Specialized Transportation Grant





Cindy The state's recently passed budget includes $2,083,668 in Specialized
Transportation (85.21) funds for Milwaukee County in 2008. These annual grant
funds are budgeted and used by the county's paratransit program and the
Department on Aging. Prior to 2006, the grant was historically split 65/35
with Transit Plus getting 65% and Aging 35%. In 2006 and 2007, DAS determined
each department's portion of the county's allocation.
Accordingly, please provide each department's share of the $2,083,668 grant for
2008. A prompt response would be appreciated as a required public hearing on
the grant program is scheduled for 12/5/07 and publication of the public
hearing notice is scheduled for 11/18/07.
For your information, attached is a chart depicting the county's total 85.21
allocation and departmental split since 1993.

Re: Fw: 2008 Specialized Transportation Grant

There is more to this issue than our brief conversation last week.
Historically these funds have been split 65%/35% with Aging getting 35%. In
2007, the allocation was changed to 70/30. I see now reason to change the
allocation. The allocation should remain in tact and apply to the new money(
$17,483) and the base funds for 2008. I also understand that Aging's 2007
allocation has somehow been reduced by $32,133. Given that budgets have been
established based on the 70/30 split -- that split should remain and Aging's
2007 allocation should not be reduced.
Since it appears DAS makes this determination, I am determining that the 70/30
split remain in place and that the increased funds be allocated on that basis
as well. There should also be no change to Aging's 2007 allocation.
Please proceed accordingly.
Lastly, given all the people involved in this discussion, I am troubled that no
one consulted Aging on this issue. They should have been part of this
discussion.

amount is $845,525. I also faxed him the resolution that showed each county's
contribution. Just FYI

Molly - Tom Burant needs to buy some software, priced about $300. Will the
transfer that you did leave enough in the 7000s for him to get the software?
Should we bump it up to $5,500?

to move it a day or so in one direction or another. I also tried to pick a
time that would not interfere with Finance Committee work. I don't want to jam

FYI below. We did this last year at this time because if I did not, analysts
would be out on leave to the extent we could not be productive. Just FYI

Given that we have a salary surplus of over $50,000, I would like to try and
"buy down" some of the analysts leave time. I have not seen what the overtime
totals are. Could you put together a proposal for us to discuss. Thanks.

Our resolutions/contracts are due to the Board soon.
This must be settled by Monday or the contract amount with explanation will
appear on the report.
I am expecting either:
The reversal of this allocation
OR a meeting on Monday with the County Executives staff to discuss it.
The past agreed to split of this money was65/35 until DPW started playing
games. Please note that all the below correspondence was with DPW Transit and
not even the courtesy to cc us.
To repeat- this was worked out and agreed to last year during our budget
hearing with the Executive.
If a decision was going to be made unilaterally to change the split it should
have been shared with us during the budget process so we could have rebutted.

This is very serious . I thought we settled last year the ongoing split of
this allocation.
So now not only do we bail them out with payment but they once again attempt to

do an end run on money that we fought and advocated for,
The equity and fairness shown us by a fellow department is apalling.
Please help us correct this now.

I strongly object to this allocation!
The 2007 allocation was $625,157 to Aging and $1,441,028 to Transit Plus. You
have recommended a $32,133 decrease to Aging, a decline of more than 5.1% in
Aging's allocation. What is the basis for this decision? Transit Plus, under
your plan, receives an increase of $49,616 - all of the increase in the state's
allocation - $17,483 ($2,083,668 - 2,006,185) plus $32,133 from Aging. You are
ignoring what occurred in 2007 and returning to the error of 2006.
The 2006 split resulted from a misunderstanding between Steve Agostini and
Director Stein about what the Department was willing except or needed from the
S85.21 split to support it's specialized transportation programs. Remember
that the state made significant increase in 2006 and 2007 in S85.21 funding.
For many years (through 2005) the split was 65% to Transit Plus and 35% to
Aging. In 2006, due to the misunderstanding between Steve Agostini and
Director Stein, the allocations changed to about 71.5% Transit Plus and 28.5%.
Following discussions between DPW/MTS-Transit Plus, Aging , and DAS for the
2007 allocation, it was agree that something close to a 70/30 split was more
appropriate and received the support of the County Executive. While the goal
was 70/30, the actual allocations was closer to 69.75 Transit /30.25 Aging in
2007.
I again strongly urge that the 70/30 split remain in place. The 2007
allocation "favored" Aging only in the sense that it revised the excessive 2006
drop in Aging's allocation. The 2007 "correction" should be retained and we
use a 70/30 split for 2008 and beyond.
Based upon a 2008 grant of $2,083,668 from the State, DPW/MTS-Transit Plus
would receive $1,458,568 and Aging would receive $625,100 based upon a straight
70/30 split.

I have been managing Aging's transportation programs since 1989, and only since
2006 has there been this continuing assault on our program serving 2,000 frail
seniors ineligible for Transit Plus!

recommendation. Give the $13,644 to Transit.

Cindy,
The State's budget provides the County $2,083,668 in Specialized Transportation
Aid, which is generally split between the Transit Division and the Department
on Aging. There is an additional $13,644 represented in this grant award not
yet budgeted.
I'm recommending we split these dollars in accordance with the last couple of
years by providing a 72% share and the Department on Aging the remaining 28% to
the Department on Aging. This allocation covers the adopted 2008 budget amount
for both divisions and allows the Transit Division to claim the entire $13,644
in additional grant money.
I've spoken with Dan Schreiber on this and he agrees this is fair, especially
given that a similar decision last year favored the Department on Aging by
about $30,000.
Please confirm you are ok with this approach so Steve Nigh may complete his
report for the next cycle.
See below for additional background.
Thanks.

Cindy The state's recently passed budget includes $2,083,668 in Specialized
Transportation (85.21) funds for Milwaukee County in 2008. These annual grant
funds are budgeted and used by the county's paratransit program and the
Department on Aging. Prior to 2006, the grant was historically split 65/35
with Transit Plus getting 65% and Aging 35%. In 2006 and 2007, DAS determined
each department's portion of the county's allocation.
Accordingly, please provide each department's share of the $2,083,668 grant for
2008. A prompt response would be appreciated as a required public hearing on
the grant program is scheduled for 12/5/07 and publication of the public
hearing notice is scheduled for 11/18/07.
For your information, attached is a chart depicting the county's total 85.21
allocation and departmental split since 1993.

the problem? This has been in the 'hopper' for quite some time. Let me know.
Molly and Scott, perhaps we should sit down on Monday and look at the
DAS-Fiscal budget in terms of the remainder of the year. We do have a 50K
salary surplus, Molly had put in a small transfer to commodities, I would like
to payout some analysts overtime and we need to be sure Scott has what he needs
for the below. Why don't you get come on in and lets go through it. Thanks.
Scott were you planning on using Natalie any time during the remainder of the
year? If so, we should factor that in as well.

        Costs of Payroll Manager with Accountemps





We have had a problem getting the payroll manager position settled in Human
Resources. Due to some confusion on the job announcement, we have had to take
the position off the recruitment, make changes to description of position, and
reopen recruitment. As a result, the person who I am looking to fill the
position will have to be on the Accountemps contract for awhile longer. This
could increase my costs by as much as $16,000 for nine additional weeks. We
have the money in the budget, and I am not paying any payroll manager costs in
salaries.
I will make changes to contract to increase dollar amount. I do not think we
need fund transfer. Are we aware of other costs that will use up Service funds?

Approved by – Scott Manske, Controller
2007 Fringe Benefit Costs per Employee recalculated and adjusted

The Department of Administrative Services (DAS) has recalculated the 2007 fringe benefits dollar cost
per employee based upon our projection of actual fringe benefit costs and payroll data through pay
period ending (PPE) 10-20-07. The revised dollar cost per employee will be in effect the last five pay
periods in 2007, from PPE 11-3-07 through PPE 12-29-07.
For 2007, DAS allocated fringe benefit costs based upon the number of health-care eligible employees in
each organizational unit. Originally, the fringe costs through pay period twenty (20) were charged to
departments based on only one pay period of employee data. To create a fairer allocation, which reflects
the change in health care eligible employees by department, DAS has recalculated the fringe benefit cost
allocation.
The revised fringe benefit allocation was calculated by extracting the number of health care eligible
employees using six 2007-pay periods; approximately one pay period for every three pay periods. The
weighted average number of employees per low organization was then determined, and this average
number of employees was then used to calculate the fringe benefits dollar cost per low organization.
These calculations are in the spreadsheet attached to this memo. An adjusting entry will be processed in
November to recognize the change in eligible employees during the year.
In addition, the cumulative adjustment decreases fringe benefit costs, based on current estimates of year
end fringe costs. Most organizations will receive a credit to object 5401 as a result of this adjustment. A
similar process will occur during the fringe benefit breakeven process, scheduled for the beginning of
period 14-1-07.
The table below details the actual fringe benefits costs charged during each pay period of 2007. Adjustments
are not included in the data below.

Fw: Parks - 2007 Major Maintenance Projects
Friday, November 23, 2007 2:36:05 PM
81099698.xls
66929258.xls

Tom and Ed, a heads up related to Parks.
Earlier in the year at the direction of the CEX, DAS took a number of steps to
avoid a projected year-end deficit. One of those steps was to freeze capital
maintenance accounts of departments except for emergencies. This was
implemented county-wide and still remains in effect. There is a process for
departments to get approval for high priority or emergency items. As you note
from the below, the Parks Department is requesting blanket release of the rest
of their funds ($331,000). In the event Sue approaches you or the CEX on this,
you need to know that I am not comfortable considering this until we finish our
3rd quarter analysis of where we stand. You also need to know that one of the
contributing negative factors for 2007 was DAS's commitment to set aside
$500,000 to cover the cost of unfunded Parks positions in 2007. In essence,
any surplus we have must go first to fulfilling this commitment to Parks.
Within the next week to week and half we should have our third quarter
estimates done for this year. There is a chance, if the countywide fiscal
condition has worsened, that the parks funds or a portion of the parks funds
might remain frozen to help with our bottom line. Keep in mind, that earlier
in the fiscal year we were projecting a year end deficit and Walker instructed
DAS to take steps to correct it. Steps included a slow down on hiring and
freezing all discretionary spending. These actions will remain in place for
the remainder of the year.
One response to Sue would be to ask her to prioritize the items, and we will
take a look at the list once our third quarter estimate is completed. If we
can't approve all, we may be able to release some portion to meet the top
priorities.
According to Rob, Sue has already approached the CEX on this. She will, I am
sure, do so again. He needs to be very cautious in how he responds to her.
The best bet would be to refer her back to DAS.
Thanks and let me know if you have any questions or concerns. I will let you
know as soon as possible how our third quarter is looking.

        Parks - 2007 Major Maintenance Projects





Cindy,
Sue had dropped off a list of 2007 Major Maint. projects to you and Rob (see
attachment). The money is currently frozen in object 8588 (in the amount of
$333,158) and she would like the money released to be used for the cited
projects. As it stands, Park's 3rd quarter fiscal report puts the department
at a projected year-end surplus of roughly $4,000. This figure assumes
expending all budgeted objects in the 8500 series ($1,026,598). Under this
scenario, I don't feel terribly comfortable with the year-end suprlus number...
However, Parks has historically held expenses in the 8500 series if the dept.
was in danger of deficiting. After speaking with Josh, if the $331,158 were to
be released, Parks would spend $100k on the most immediate fixes and hold the
additional $200k as a cushion to cover any potential deficits. They would like
to carry-over any remaining funds. Please drop me a line when you return from
vacation and we can go over this in more detail. Thanks.

Are you free for lunch on Thurs? I was thinking Ms Katie's cafe (a fairly
common courthouse haunt...).
Just let me know if that works, or we can shoot for next week.
By the way, have you heard anything out of Madison on the status of your POB
legislation that was taken out of the budget?

Christopher! Sorry for the delay in responding. I was up to my eyeballs

Lunch would be nice. You will have to pick a place (I don't get out much!),

Cindy,

Great to run into the other week....sorry to hear you guys got shortened up a
bit in the budget deal, but I'm sure you'll figure it out.

Let's get lunch sometime soon and catch up.

Does this Friday work for you? If not, perhaps sometime next week?

Talk to you soon.

A few things
Wednesday, November 28, 2007 5:33:33 PM

Scott,
I will be off tomorrow but will be back on Friday. A couple of items I wanted
to follow up with you on:
Status of 3rd quarter fiscal report -- how is it looking?
Econ Development deficit -- is it worse or better than we originally projected
Ceridian -- Today in our meeting with Corey Hoze and Walker, Corey bought up
something about Ceridian not being able to handle the issue of holiday pay for
I think, Psychologist and that you advised them somethinig about having to go
to the Board to get holiday pay because Ceridian was not set up to handle
this?????? This is a long-standing past practice and I need clarity on is this
a technical issue or a policy issue? My understanding is that Ceridian has a
manual override that could accommodate this. What do you know about this issue
and why has it now become a problem? He was not very clear in his explanation.
Please email me and I will check in on my email from home. Thanks.

Cyndi - this is the fiscal note for the contract amendment from Employee
Benefits. It is budgeted (in IMSD) for 2008 so there is no fiscal impact.
Matt should have checked the box for No Direct County Impact. He also
mispelled some things.

DESCRIPTION OF FISCAL EFFECT
In the space below, you must provide the following information. Attach additional pages if necessary.
A. Briefly describe the nature of the action that is being requested or proposed, and the new or
changed conditions that would occur if the request or proposal were adopted.
B. State the direct costs, savings or anticipated revenues associated with the requested or proposed
action in the current budget year and how those were calculated. 1 If annualized or subsequent
year fiscal impacts are substantially different from current year impacts, then those shall be stated
as well. In addition, cite any one-time costs associated with the action, the source of any new or
additional revenues (e.g. State, Federal, user fee or private donation), the use of contingent funds,
and/or the use of budgeted appropriations due to surpluses or change in purpose required to fund
the requested action.
C. Discuss the budgetary impacts associated with the proposed action in the current year. A
statement that sufficient funds are budgeted should be justified with information regarding the
amount of budgeted appropriations in the relevant account and whether that amount is sufficient
to offset the cost of the requested action. If relevant, discussion of budgetary impacts in
subsequent years also shall be discussed. Subsequent year fiscal impacts shall be noted for the
entire period in which the requested or proposed action would be implemented when it is
reasonable to do so (i.e. a five-year lease agreement shall specify the costs/savings for each of
the five years in question). Otherwise, impacts associated with the existing and subsequent
budget years should be cited.
D. Describe any assumptions or interpretations that were utilized to provide the information on this
form.

A.) Approval of this request will authorize an amendment to the current Vitech License and
Support contract. This amendment is to develop and implement the V3 life and medical module.
This module will facilitate the enrollment, tracking and billing functions for Milwaukee County's
post-retirement medical and life insurance benefit programs.
B.) The $345,000 required for the system is a one-time cost and is the agregate of 4 payments.
$135,000 is due upon execution of the contract, $70,000 is due upon delivery of complete design
specifications, $70,000 due upon completion of system testing, and $70,000 due upon live use of
the V3 life and medical modules. The total of $345,000 includes the license fee and
implementation services, and has already been approved in the 2008 budget.
C.) There is no budgetary impact to the current year, aside from the time of existing staff. The
2008 budget already includes $500,000 encumbered to IMSD, intended for the development and
implementation of the V3 life and medical functionality. Ongoing maintenance and hosting
services are inclusive of the existing Vitech License and Support contract.
D.) The approved 2008 budgeted amount of $500,000 assumes $345,000 applicable to the
Vitech life & medical functionality contract ammendment. The remaining $155,000 is for
professional services associated with the life & medical functionality.

                     Subject:     A few things
Scott,
I will be off tomorrow but will be back on Friday. A couple of items I wanted
to follow up with you on:
Status of 3rd quarter fiscal report -- how is it looking? - I have not started
this yet. I have all data from departments but I have not calculated a total
yet.
Econ Development deficit -- is it worse or better than we originally projected
- I worked all Wednesday on this and was able to get through two grant
programs. I will try to get through the rest of this but I am running behind
on Ceridian.
Ceridian -- Today in our meeting with Corey Hoze and Walker, Corey bought up
something about Ceridian not being able to handle the issue of holiday pay for
I think, Psychologist and that you advised them somethinig about having to go
to the Board to get holiday pay because Ceridian was not set up to handle
this?????? This is a long-standing past practice and I need clarity on is this
a technical issue or a policy issue? My understanding is that Ceridian has a
manual override that could accommodate this. What do you know about this issue
and why has it now become a problem? He was not very clear in his explanation.
I Ceridian system can pay these people, but we need a policy decision that
says we should pay them. I told Rob Henken that he has to make that decision.
He can pay them if they are planning to go to the County Board to get policy
approval. If policy approval is not received then we will have to take the
money back from the Psychologists.
Please email me and I will check in on my email from home. Thanks.

position listing
Friday, November 30, 2007 12:52:44 PM

I confirmed what I already knew. Milwaukee County does not have "the book"
like you and I are used to. I met with Jim Eggers and he is going to run a
report for you. I told him I wanted the report to include the following
information by Department:
        Position Title
        Position Pay grade
        Incumbent
        FLSA status
        hourly rate
        Annual Salary
        hire date
To keep it simple and manageable as a reference document, I asked him to run it
only for non represented positions. It will not include union or hourly
positions. You need to know that it will only be for filled position (not
vacant postions) due to data limitations. It is also not possible without alot
of work to list the min and max of the pay range on this report because that
info comes from different systems. (I know what you are thinking...but hey, I
am only telling it like it is. :)
With this report, you will be able to look up what people are making now, what
their title is and their pay grade. From another report, you will be able to
see the min and max of the pay grade.
I will put this info in binder for you to reference. Sorry this is the best we
have. I have not been involved in the report writing capability of Ceridian,
but I suspect it will be better. With the implementation pressures however, I
don't think alot of attention has been paid to report wirting at this point.
Cindy

I can get vacant positions (which I have done before) but it won't be in the
same report.
Also, keep in mind the vacant position listing has a short shelf life due to
positions being filled. I will get it as well.
Someday I hope to have a complete position control system that ties to budget
has has all of this info in "the book"!

He wants a vacancy report for nonreps as well. He know it comes from a
different system and won't be part of the report you are running for him.
Would you be able to run a vacany report by department with just basic info:
         Title
         Pay range
         date vacated
         min salary
Sorted by Title?
I know you are busy. This part can wait until next week if that works better
for you.

Kat, can you add to my calendar

1:30 Tuesday Dec 4th
Dr. Gogan
2727 W Cleveland (and 27th)
262-241-8000

I took your advice and decided it would probably not be a good idea to have a
deaf budget director. :)

Thanks.

Cindy: attached is report of vacant NR positions. I can not add minimum rate
since the pay ranges are in a different data base.

I am heading back to 203R for the Sheriff Contract Arbitration. If you need
anything else send someone down to get me.

He wants a vacancy report for nonreps as well. He know it comes from a
different system and won't be part of the report you are running for him.
Would you be able to run a vacany report by department with just basic info:
         Title
         Pay range
         date vacated
         min salary
Sorted by Title?
I know you are busy. This part can wait until next week if that works better
for you.
Thanks Jim

Any suggestions for the agenda on Thursday?
After the CDBP event last week, it might be good to talk about issues with
Frieda.

Kat, Rob is appointed to the larger extension of this committee and it is my
understanding he cannot attend tomorrow
so please have Cindy attend in his place as this is the first meeting of the 20
member panel.
Thank you.

Go slow and listen; Find your go-to people
Get the lay of the land. Meet with staff, elected officials, department heads
and other stakeholders to get their input on what works, what has not worked
and advice they might have. Most people want new managers to succeed. Be
honest and humble and listen. Try to determine early on who you can trust and
rely on as a go-to person in the initial stages of transition.
It may be the same job, but it is not.
Every organization is different. The exact same job (i.e., Management Services
Administrator, VP of Administration, Administration Director, Budget Director,
etc) in two different organizations can be very different in terms of
expectations, roles and responsibilities, political environment and the ability
to implement change. Don’t think what worked in one organization will
necessarily work in another. Be flexible and responsive to the new
environment. At the same time, don’t hesitate to bring forward best practices
from other organizations, but recognize they will likely need to be adjusted
for the new environment.
Status Quo: The Organization was working before you arrived so move cautiously.
A new manager coming into a new organization will be flooded with information
on policies, past practices, rules, regulations, statutes, ordinances,
procedures, etc. Some staff may be heavily invested (at lease initially) with
the status quo because it is what they know, what they are comfortable with and
CArcher_Email3016967

they may have played a role in defining it. Staff may not always be interested
in pointing out where there is managerial latitude to change things. While
getting grounded in the organization, allowing the status quo to proceed is not
a bad thing, but there will come a point where the status quo will need to be
tested before change can be implemented. Determine what your managerial
latitude is – determine what existing governing regulations are (statutes,
ordinances, etc.) and assess the political landscape. Given the investment of
most in the status quo – do this yourself. Ultimately, you will be held
accountable for the change. Do your homework and don’t rely on others for
advice on what can and cannot be done.
Decide what is most important and what can wait.
Start with changes that can be successful and supported by staff and other
stakeholders. Successfully implementing a change will make people more willing
to consider change in the future
Respect the culture, respect the history, but trust yourself.
In the end, as a new manager, you have been hired because someone up the chain
believes you bring something to the table and you are the best for the job. By
the same token, in the end you will be the one held accountable. There always
comes a time after you have weighed what you have been told, that you have to
take a risk and trust yourself.
Do your homework.
Don’t be reckless. When you speak, whether to staff or elected officials, it
should be apparent that you have done your homework. This is the core of
credibility.
Don’t be afraid to admit your mistakes.
Mistakes happen. Accept responsibility. Not doing so will undermine your
credibility and lead to a lack of trust from policy makers and your staff.
You cannot be successful without your staff.
As a manager, your job is to grow, teach, protect and mentor your staff to
prepare them for the next stage of their career. Don’t forget in the midst of
transition and day-to-day pressures to keep your pulse on what they are getting
from the experience and what they need to grow. Do not expect more of them
than you are willing to give of yourself. It may take longer, but take the
time when possible to explain your decision making process.

Please see below on creation of the Capital Finance and Planning Analyst
position.
I would like to get this position and the FAMA position posted for recruitment
by the end of the month since I will be out the first week in January. We can
discuss tomorrow.
My initial thoughts are we should post in Milwaukee paper, Madison paper and
Wiscjobs (the state site) and update what is on the County website. We should
check with Alex, she may have a copy of fhe newspaper ad we used last time. I
have also emailed Alex and asked her which schools we emailed the announcement
to last time. Pam, you and James should work on crafting an announcement for
the web and a newspaper ad so I can review before I leave on my trip.
I think it would be best to recruit for both at the same time.

talked to SW. We will ignore the first issue and he knows our 3rd quarter
estimate is being finalized. He wants the report the same time we send
downstairs at which time anything is fair.
I left Rich voice mail at home. Asked him to call me, but did give him the
ball park # of $5 million.
On the ordinance issue, SW feels he has done all that is required of him and
the ball is in Rich's hands.
Scott will finalize the report tomorrow and we will send it down and to CEX
Office.

Subject: Wisconsin Public Records Act request
Cynthia Archer, Director Fiscal & Budget Administration:

Under the Public Records Act, we request access and copies of stale-dated,
unclaimed, or uncashed checks (also known as outstanding checks) , for the past
five years, that show the names, last addresses and amounts due the payees.
(Generally these are vendor checks that were issued but the payee has not
cashed the check after a year.)
We also request access and copies of all unclaimed investment bonds and bond
proceeds , including the names, last addresses and amounts due the bondholders.
These are bonds citizens purchased to invest in your Agency. Bonds can take
many years to mature so people forget about them. Or the original owner may
have died. (If these records are held by transfer agents, please have them
provide this information. )
Additionally, we request access and copies of unclaimed property tax refunds ,
for the past 5 years, that show the names, last addresses, and amounts due the
party entitled to the money . (Generally these are caused by overpayment of
taxes.)
We also request access and copies of all unclaimed excess proceeds from the
sale of tax-defalted property , including the dates of the checks, names, last
addresses, and amounts due the parties entitled to the proceeds.
We are only interested in items where the amount is over $10,000.00. (We are
NOT interested in items that have escheated to the State Unclaimed Property
office.)
(It saves time for all of us if your records have been reconciled. That assures

CArcher_Email3016987

that unclaimed items haven't been subsequently reissued.)
Our intent is to locate the rightful owners and assist them in claiming their
money. Our firm has been in business over 25 years. We help your agency by
helping you to clear unclaimed items off your books, which is a good accounting
practice; and we help citizens recover their lost money.
We are willing to pay reasonable costs. Please give us an estimate as to what
the cost would be.
Please reply within 10 working days as provided for in the law.
Thank you.

want one on one time, consider it done, but he only has about 20 minutes, if

Hi Vince,
Just to be clear, the referral from IGR did not include a discussion of pension
obligation bonds but the County's pension obligations, generally speaking.
Also, Steve already provided response to that questions with information from
Corporation Counsel. Therefore, yo do not have to worry about the pension
obligation question, only the question on debt service.

Hi Pam,
I believe Marina put together an IGR meeting for next Monday and she has put
creation of a Parks District on the agenda. To follow-up on some initial
questions Marina had asked, I was hoping you could help with a couple of
questions....
        1. How much outstanding debt is the Parks Dept. currently carrying?
        2. What are the POB implications for the County and the proposed Parks
District
        a. Assuming that the County is responsible for Parks employees who
have retired prior to the creation of a Parks District
        b. Assuming that (270.5) budgeted Parks employees (who are eligible
for benies) are transferred to the Parks District
Thanks for your help with this and please drop me a line if you have any
questions. Thanks!

        Wisconsin Public Records Act request






Cynthia Archer, Director Fiscal & Budget Administration:
Under the Public Records Act, we request access and copies of stale-dated,
unclaimed, or uncashed checks (also known as outstanding checks), for the past
five years, that show the names, last addresses and amounts due the payees.
(Generally these are vendor checks that were issued but the payee has not
cashed the check after a year.)
We also request access and copies of all unclaimed investment bonds and bond
proceeds, including the names, last addresses and amounts due the bondholders.
These are bonds citizens purchased to invest in your Agency. Bonds can take
many years to mature so people forget about them. Or the original owner may
have died. (If these records are held by transfer agents, please have them
provide this information.)
Additionally, we request access and copies of unclaimed property tax refunds,
for the past 5 years, that show the names, last addresses, and amounts due the
party entitled to the money. (Generally these are caused by overpayment of
taxes.)

CArcher_Email3017001

We also request access and copies of all unclaimed excess proceeds from the
sale of tax-defalted property, including the dates of the checks, names, last
addresses, and amounts due the parties entitled to the proceeds.
We are only interested in items where the amount is over $10,000.00. (We are
NOT interested in items that have escheated to the State Unclaimed Property
office.)
(It saves time for all of us if your records have been reconciled. That assures
that unclaimed items haven't been subsequently reissued.)
Our intent is to locate the rightful owners and assist them in claiming their
money. Our firm has been in business over 25 years. We help your agency by
helping you to clear unclaimed items off your books, which is a good accounting
practice; and we help citizens recover their lost money.
We are willing to pay reasonable costs. Please give us an estimate as to what
the cost would be.
Please reply within 10 working days as provided for in the law.
Thank you.

from the $333,000 that is currently frozen in the 8500 series funding. This
funding will be used for the follwoing repairs.

Re: Fw: Major Maintenance Funding

There is general acceptance that Parks could use more maintenance money (and in
fact the 2008 budget included more). The reason I could not approve the
release of more is because if I did they would run a deficit due to revenue
shortfalls.
In terms of what Parks spends the maintenance $ for that is within their
discretion. They could allocate more $ to parks bathrooms but I suspect they
do not see this as a high priority relative to other things. You could ask
them to provide you with a plan for 2008 maintenance projects in the event you
are thinking we should devote more to bathrooms.

Given the effort by Beth Coggs-Jones to have Parks inspect every rest room what
impact might that have? I'm told some are in poor condition, but that may be
related more to cleaning than repair.

expectation is regarding the five year projections for the next strategic
planning meeting. I am not sure what to take or prepare. Does this group
really want to walk through line-by-line the projections and the assumptions
used or do they just want to see the spreadsheet? Is the intention to spend
the whole meeting on this topic or is it just a general discussion? I would
just like to chat for a few minutes. Thanks

INTER-OFFICE MEMO
County of Milwaukee

DATE :
TO

:

FROM :
SUBJECT: (DRAFT) Reclassification Request ExDir1 Risk Manager, Title Code 80010
As the first step in a DAS Section reorganization that will be completed in the first half of 2008 we
are requesting the reclassification of the Risk Manager position from ExDir1, pay range 901E to
ExDir2, pay range 902E. When the reorganization is complete it will result in personnel services
savings totaling $36,165 in 2008 with additional health and pension legacy cost savings in 2009.
Additional duties to be assumed by the Risk Manager include:
• Provide primary direction to and manage internal claims staff responsible for processing and
administering self-insured worker’s compensation claims.
• Coordinate worker’s compensation claim procedures, return to work programs and payment
of benefits with all County departments and specifically Central Payroll, Accounts Payable,
Human resources, Labor relations, Office for Persons with Disabilities, Group Health
Benefits and the Milwaukee County Employee Retirement System.
• Coordinated defense and settlement strategies for litigated worker’s compensation claims
with Corporation Counsel and provide settlement authority.
• Develop and implement worker’s compensation medical cost containment programs in
conjunction with other Milwaukee area taxing units.
• Develop training programs for worker’s compensation staff and all County departments.
We have obtained position descriptions and salary ranges for similar positions from the following
public entities:
City of Madison
Milwaukee Public Schools
State of Wisconsin
MMSD
County of Waukesha

Risk Manager
Insurance, Safety and
Risk Management Specialist
Risk Management Manager
Dept. of Transportation
Risk Management Coord.
Risk/Purchasing Manager

$58,509 – 70,636
$59,160 – 85,755
$58,646 – 82,010
$74,787 – 87,737
$81,099 – 95,410

Although all of theses positions describe similar duties related to risk assessment and financing,
developing, marketing and monitoring insured programs, developing and administering self-insured

CArcher_Email3017018

programs, responsibility for safety, health and other loss control programs, contractual review and,
reporting to public boards; none involve direct supervision and management of internal claim staff
that administer and process their self-insured Wisconsin Worker’s compensation claims. The
majority of the above entities use Third Party Administrators to investigate and process worker’s
compensation claims, the others have separate departments that perform this function.
A review of Risk Manager salary ranges in the 53233 zip code area using Salary.com resulted in a
salary range of $69,466 to $121,568 between the 10th and 90th percentiles of the range. The Job
Description depicting that range is attached to this request.
Based upon the additional duties listed above and additional research, we request that the position of
ExDir1 Risk Manager, pay range 901E be reclassified to ExDir2 Risk Manager, pay range 902E.
There are sufficient funds available for this change in the 2007 DAS/Risk Management adopted
budget and the 2008 requested budget.

Budget Unit Manager Reclass
COUNTY OF MILWAUKEE
Inter-Office Communication

DATE:

December 12, 2007

TO:

Karen Jackson, Director, DHR

FROM:

Rob Henken, Director, DAS

SUBJECT: Reclassification/Reallocation Request of Risk Manager (Title Code 80010)
PR 901E to PR 902E.

Policy
Milwaukee County Ordinance 17.05 (2) describes the procedure and criteria for the submission
of reclassification requests.
Action Requested
Reclassify Risk Manager position (Title Code 80010) pay range 901E to pay range 902E.
Rationale
The Risk Manager is one of four managers reporting directly to the Fiscal and Budget
Administrator in the Department of Administrative Services (DAS). The Risk Manager oversees
five staff – 1.0 FTE Risk Management Coordinator, 1.0 FTE Claims Examiner, 1.0 Claims
Adjuster, 1.0 FTE Claims Technician and 1.0 Employee Safety Supervisor. As currently
structured, the Risk Management Coordinator and the Employee Safety Supervisor report
directly to the Risk Manager (See Attachment 1: Current Organizational Chart). The Risk
Manager is responsible for the development, implementation and oversight of a comprehensive
county-wide risk management program aimed at minimizing Milwaukee County’s exposure to
property, casualty and other fiscal losses. The Risk Manager oversees a budget of almost $6.6
million and property assets valued at approximately $2.3 billion and a self-insured workers
compensation program covering over 6,000 county employees. Attachment 2 details the
functions of the DAS-Risk Management Section. Attachment 3 is the current position
description for the Risk Manager position.
Expanded Duties
The Risk Manager position has been filled on an acting basis by the Risk Manager Coordinator.
The 2008 budget included funding adjustments in anticipation of a reorganization of the Risk
Management Section. In an effort to streamline the operations of the office and realize budget
savings, in 2008 the Risk Management Coordinator will be held vacant and eventually abolished
therefore removing a layer of management. In the 2008 budget the Risk Management
Coordinator position was unfunded for the last six months of 2008 reflecting the anticipated
vacancy of this position and the planned reorganization. Under the reorganization the
management and direct supervision duties for the Risk Management Coordinator will shift to the

CArcher_Email3017025

Budget Unit Manager Re-Class Request

4/2/07
Page 2

Risk Manager. Since the duties of this position are being expanded, DAS is requesting the
reclassification of the position.
Additional duties to be assumed by the Risk Manager include:
• Assume direct supervision of staff currently supervised by the Risk Management
Coordinator.
• Provide primary direction to and manage internal claims staff responsible for processing,
administering and determining compensability of self-insured worker’s compensation
claims.
• Coordinate worker’s compensation claim procedures, return to work programs and
payment of benefits with County departments and specifically Central Payroll, Accounts
Payable, Human resources, Labor relations, Office for Persons with Disabilities, Group
Health Benefits and the Milwaukee County Employee Retirement System.
• Develop defense and settlement strategies for litigated worker’s compensation claims
with Corporation Counsel and provide advise and settlement authority to Corporation
Counsel related to the settlement of claims.
• Develop and implement worker’s compensation medical cost containment programs in
conjunction with other Milwaukee area taxing units.
• Develop training programs for worker’s compensation staff and loss-control training to
management and staff in County departments.
Attached is a copy of a revised position description for the Risk Manager position (Attachment
4).
Market Salary
Below are the current salary ranges of comparable positions in the area.
Milwaukee Public Schools
MMSD
County of Waukesha

Insurance, Safety and
Risk Management Specialist $59,160 – 85,755
Risk Management Coord.
$74,787 – 87,737
Risk/Purchasing Manager
$81,099 – 95,410

Although all of theses positions describe similar duties related to risk assessment and financing,
developing, marketing and monitoring insured programs, developing and administering selfinsured programs, responsibility for safety, health and other loss control programs, contractual
review and, reporting to public boards; none of the above include responsibility for the direct
supervision and management of internal claim determination and processing of worker’s
compensation claims as does the Milwaukee County position. Unlike Milwaukee County the
above entities contract with third party administrators to investigate and process worker’s
compensation claims or have the responsibility for workers compensation within another
department (i.e., human resources, benefits administration, etc.). Even though the job duties of
the above three positions do not include responsibility for the workers compensation program,
the maximum of the pay ranges exceed that of the current maximum pay range of the Milwaukee
County Risk Manager ($84,613). [Note: Position descriptions for the above-noted positions are
available for review in the Risk Management Office.]

CArcher_Email3017026

Budget Unit Manager Re-Class Request

4/2/07
Page 3

A review of Risk Manager salary ranges in Milwaukee and Nationally indicates the salary range
requested ($73,634-$109,093) is consistent with salaries of similar positions both locally
($80,505-$108,035) and nationally ($76,965-$103,035). [See Attachment 5].
Internal Parity
The duties and responsibilities of the Risk Manager position are at least as complex as those of
the other three managers (Controller, Assistant FABA and Capital Finance Manager), which are
currently all classified in pay ranges comparable to that being requested. The Controller and the
Assistant FABA are in pay range 902E ($73,634-$109,093) and the Capital Finance Manager is
in pay range 917E ($73,634-$95,724) while the Risk Manager is currently in pay range 901E
($57,808-$84,613). In addition, similar to those positions the Risk Manager has county-wide
responsibility, daily decision-making and management authority and is instrumental in protecting
the County’s resources by the effective implementation of loss-control and risk-shifting
strategies.
Finally, it should be noted that the County will be recruiting to fill this critical position
immediately upon action on this request. The ability of the County to attract top-notched
candidates for this position will be dependent upon our ability to offer a competitive salary.
Fiscal Impact
The fiscal impact of this request has been fully reflected in the 2008 Adopted Budget which
included additional salary funds of $______ for the requested reclassification of the Risk
Manager position and the elimination of funding for the Risk Management Coordinator during
the last six months of 2008 (-$_____), for an net savings in 2008 of $________.

Fiscal Impact
This position action would result in increased personal services expenditures between $1,777 for
step one to $2,420 for step five of the range. This cost is offset approximately 50% by State
revenue for a tax levy impact between $888 to $1,210 for the last five months of 2006.
In terms of total annual costs, this position action would result in increased expenditures of
$2,918 to $3,974, offset by 50% revenue for a tax levy impact of between $1,459 to $1,987 in
2007 (see attached fiscal note form).
Thank you in advance for your consideration of this request.

Manager position and the elimination of funding for the Risk Management Coordinator during
the last six months of 2008 (-$_____), for an net savings in 2008 of $________.

MPM payment
Wednesday, December 12, 2007 5:14:29 PM

MPM called yesterday and was wondering if we could make the 2008 first quarter
payment on December 28 instead of January 1 (which is a holiday). The lease
calls for January 1. I assume this can't be done since the money is in the
2008 budget and we do not have appropriation authority until Jan 1. Correct?

reflection -- MPM payment
Wednesday, December 12, 2007 5:17:18 PM

Upon reflection, I doubt we can make the first quarter payment on December 28
since the funds are in our 2008 budget and we do not have the legal
appropriation authority to spend those funds until the beginning of the fiscal
year (Jan 1, 2008). Just to be sure, I am checking with our Controller.

Wednesday, December 12, 2007 5:20:37 PM

Just to let you know the Michael Bernatz called yesterday asking if we could
make the first quarter payment to them on December 28 instead of January 1. He
mentioned January 1 was a holiday and it also seemed there was a timing issue
with the Banks. As noted below, I doubt we can do this but I will see what
Manske says. And maybe Domina. What do you think?

I agree. I did not have a problem until I started to think about the fact it
crossed fiscal years. I will resolve it either with Manske or Domina.

I guess I have no problem if we can do it, but I agree that it is likely
problematic due to the fact that the funds are in our 2008 Budget.

MPM First Quarter payment
Thursday, December 13, 2007 2:17:55 PM

The 2008 Budget provides $3,502,376 as the County payment to MPM paid on a
quarterly basis with the first payment ($875,594) due to MPM on January 1,
2008. Since January 1 is a holiday, MPM has requested the first payment on
December 28. I have consulted with Manske and he said this can be done as a
prepayment. I would like us to proceed with a December 28 payment date.
Barb, can you prepare the paperwork for the electronic transfer into the MPM
operating account of $875,594 on December 28. Thanks.

        Finance Committee Request.





Cindy:
Regarding the Finance Committee of 12/13/07 and the AE&ES report on projected
revenue deficit, Supervisor Nyklewicz asked for a summary of Fund Transfers on
the 2007 Capital Budget and the impact of those fund transfers on the potential
for AE&ES division staff to produce revenue from the capital budget. While I
am not sure the two are necessarily related, I think most of the fund transfers
were for construction activities, not professional fees.
I believe he asked me at one point and also asked you later on to prepare such
a summary.
I assume he is looking for this before Board day.
Are you planning on preparing this report or should AE&ES staff prepare it?
Please advise ASAP .

        Vacation Carryover





The payroll system is programmed to carryover unused 2007 vacation time for use
in 2008, but is limited to one-half the 2007 annual allotment. Most of you
will fall into this category.
Carryover of more than one-half of your entitlement requires special permission
from both department management and DHR. If you believe you will be carrying
over more than one-half your allotment, please provide me with the following
for processing:
1. Written rationale for carryover of more than one-half of 2007 annual
vacation entitlement
2. Name, Social security number and clock number
3. Total number of hours for carryover
I will need this information provided to me by the end of this week, Friday,
December 14.
Thanks.

        Re: Fw: items Winter Maintenance Supplies





Ed,
I spoke with the manager of Highway Maintenance, Chuck Smeltzer, and they are
confident in having adequate supply of salt and other various winter
maintenance supplies through the end of 2007 and into 2008.
Salt is the biggest budget item for winter maintenance work. The Highway
Maintenance Division purchases approximately 10,000 tons annually and has spent
about $220,000 on salt year-to-date.
Fortunately, our winter weather has not jeopardized the Division’s salt
reserves and it continues to handle the ordering of winter maintenance supplies
in way consistent with its normal operation.
The next major order of salt will occur in January 2008, as scheduled.
Also, the State of Wisconsin uses salt domes owned by Milwaukee County for salt
storage and an arrangement exists whereby the County has the option to borrow
salt reserves from the State when prudent to do so. Borrowing salt reserves
from the State is not out of the ordinary, but rather is an extension of the
cooperative arrangement whereby Milwaukee County performs state highway

CArcher_Email3017055

maintenance.
In short, the County is looking good for its winter maintenance inventory to
finish out 2007, and has no current concerns for 2008.
Let me know if there is additional information you’d like.
Thanks.

Hi Rob,
A few items after you finish with the Finance Committee:
I left a message with Cindy to update the CoExec or me on how the 3rd quarter
surplus presentation went at Finance. Scott is interested as he may have to
respond to inquiries from Steve S.
Do you have a handle on the expenses for salt/winter maintenance budget thus
far? How much did we budget for winter clean up? I am guessing this is split
between 2007/2008 (Nov-March?)
Has someone finished looking into the fiscal effect to Milwaukee County if the
law waiving 17 yr old into adult court is changed to allow for only 18yrs and
up?
Thank you.

Carryover reporting per 32.91(7)
Thursday, December 20, 2007 4:26:13 PM
Draft Planning 2008 Schedule.xls

Steve,
Pam and I have looked over the ordinance related to this topic and I would like
to describe our problem and then perhaps we could talk about it.
The ordinance requires DAS to submit both the final comprehensive list of
capital projects recommended for close out by March 1 and the recommendations
for carryovers by March 1. The problem is departments have until March 1 to
make final year-end entries into advantage. Until these entries are done, Pam
does not have the data to complete the required reports also due on March 1.
Anything submitted on March 1 is grossly incomplete requiring the report to be
re-done for the April cycle. I am seeking your advice on how to approach Rich
on the possibility of modifying the date in the ordinance or deferring the
report until April 1 or the April cycle. I realize there is no Finance
Committee or Board meeting this year in April, but we would still submit it by
April 1 for Committee/Board approval in May.
Attached is my draft planning schedule. As you can see, not only does the
March 1 date conflict with the advantage close out date, but Pam is also
preparing for the GO Bond issues and beginning to work on debt service and
revenue related estimates for the 2009 budget in Feb and March. Submitting a
report on March 1 that is basically meaningless, requires about two weeks of
Pam's time in February and then another two weeks in March to re-do it for
submission again in April. Why don't we just do it right the first time and
submit a true final report in April?
Finally, Pam has always been very cooperative with Board members and Committees
in assisting them with their questions and projects (i.e., due diligence
requests). As her work continues to pile up (I have not even talked about
POBs) this will become more and more difficult. We want to continue to be
responsive, but I am looking for some relief.
Let me know your thoughts on how we could go about this.
Thanks.

Remodel for HR/Employee benefits
Thursday, December 20, 2007 5:26:42 PM

There is a need to spend about $40K to do minor remodeling related to the
creation of Employee benefits. I understand that both the HR department and
Employee benefits have funds available in this years budget to accomplish
this. I need the two of you to get together tomorrow and consult with Mankse
to see what our options are for getting the funding in the right place (do we
need to do a fund transfer? Can it be a DAS only fund transfer? Is it still
possible timing wise to do a 2007 transfer?) AND how can we encumber the funds
since the work will not be completed this fiscal year?
Feel free to come see me in the morning if we need to discuss. Given that the
fiscal year is winding down however, we need to move quickly to see what our
options are. Thanks!!!

Steve Schultz just called asking if there was something in the budget for a
consultant related long-range planning. I thought he was talking about the
Strategic Planning Initiative and then he said something about public private
partnerships and facilities. I asked if he was referring to the Space and
Facilities Plan consultant funding in the budget and he said yes. So I
explained what was in the budget for this initiative. [We have $40,000 for
each of these initiatives for consultant assistance in the 2008 budget].
He wanted to know if there were reporting time lines for these initiatives and
I told him there was nothing specified in the budget but that there would be a
progress report on the Strategic Planning Initiative in January. I also told
him it is the expectation that both of these initiatives will be far enough
along to provide guidance during the 2009 budget process.

Re: Remodel for HR/Employee benefits
Friday, December 21, 2007 12:37:33 PM

Thank you. It looks like from the 3rd quarter report that both HR and Employee
have surpluses. Please prepare a transfer in the amount of $40,000 split 50/50
(assuming both departments have $ in right place for a DAS only transfer).

I spoke with Davida and Scott on this. It appears that the cleanest way to do
this will be for Cindy to approve a DAS only fund transfer that moves the
expenditures from a surplus DAS expenditure account to a Major Maintenance
account in (e.g. 8502) in the Employee Benefits Division before the end of
2007. We would then submit a carry-over request to carry over this expenditure
authority into 2008. This will allow us to use 2007 budget authority in the
next fiscal year.
Davida is putting the fund transfer together for processing. Let me know if
you have questions.

        Remodel for HR/Employee benefits





There is a need to spend about $40K to do minor remodeling related to the
creation of Employee benefits. I understand that both the HR department and
Employee benefits have funds available in this years budget to accomplish
this. I need the two of you to get together tomorrow and consult with Mankse
to see what our options are for getting the funding in the right place (do we
need to do a fund transfer? Can it be a DAS only fund transfer? Is it still
possible timing wise to do a 2007 transfer?) AND how can we encumber the funds
since the work will not be completed this fiscal year?

We need to talk about the budget. My understanding from Facilities is that
they can get this done for 40K. Now Dave wants private offices and other
changes that would double the amount.

Actually, I think most of the work is for Employee Benefits, so you should
probably take the whole amount from them. I talked to Dave Arena and he has no
problem with this. Also, I'm not certain that $40,000 is the right number -Davida, you should talk to Dave and make sure we take sufficient funds to get
this done.

Patricia,
We would like to begin recruitment for two positions in the DAS Fiscal Affairs
Office -- one, Fiscal and Management Analyst and two, the newly created Capital
Finance and Planning Analyst. Dr. Jackson suggested I work with you.
The Fiscal and Management Analyst has been on continuous recruitment on our web
site for quite some time. We called for the cert list and have the resumes
submitted so far. In order to generate renewed interest, I was wondering if
the web site could highlight this position in someway as Now hiring, or flag it
as a new listing or a hot job or something like that. Also, as noted on the
attached I would like applicants to apply by January 24.
The Capital Finance and Planning Analyst is new and has never been posted on
the web site. I have attached a description of the position and would like
your assistance in putting this in the proper format for posting on our web
site. Deadline for applications on this one should be January 24 as well.
Feel free to post the salary range if that is normal practice.

I have also attached a mock up ad for your review and posting in the Milwaukee
paper. I would also like ads for these two positions posted in the Madison
newspapers, the Wisc.Jobs Bulletin and the Wisc.Jobs -- State of Wisconsin Job
Opportunities web site. Both of these can be found on the State Government
Office of State Employment Relations web page under the "jobs" button.
I would like these posted at least two weeks so given that, if there is a
problem with the January 24 due date, please give me a call. Also, please feel
free to edit any of the attached to bring in line with your process. Give me a
call if needed. Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the call today. I just found the attached that shows where we
posted our jobs in the past -- mostly graduate schools. Would HR handle this
or is this something we would do here?
PS -- on the attached I would skip GFOA since they are only a monthly
publication and somewhat expensive.
Let me know your thoughts.

stuff i don"t want to forget
Friday, December 21, 2007 4:31:28 PM

Hope you had a good Christmas!
Remind me...I talked to Vanessa and I can tell you how that went. She is going
to consult with you and Alex (which I encouraged her to do). Her main concern
was having to give up some of her assignment. Alex was not sure she would need
to give up some of her assignment but you and I should discuss. She mainly
wanted to hang onto Courts and HOC but maybe she would let go of DA and Medical
Examiner and then take the operations role. Anyway, we can talk when you get
back.
HR is going to re-post our positions. I am working with Patricia Perry-Wright
and she actually seemed very helpful today. I wanted this to get started so
you guys can proceed with first round interviews while I am gone. I reviewed
the applications we have in house. There may be a few that warrant a
call/interview. The problem is, I don't know how stale (old) the applications
are. Anyway, take a look at them and I defer to your judgement.

Also, can you be sure the final documents reflect sufficient cash "pull-out" to
pay off my car loan and home equity loan based on the balances. The earlier
documents showed old balances that I think you got off a credit report.
Anyway, these are both Summit accounts so you can find the payoff balances

Cynthia,
The Capital and Finance Planning Analyst will need an approved certification
from DAS to DHR to begin the recruitment process.   The sooner we get the
approved certification from your department, we can begin working on the job
announcement to get the position open as soon as possible in 2008.
At this point I believe that I am going to assign James Tate as the Analyst

recruitment. Once the announcement is ready for recruitment Dashal and I will
begin posting the position on our website, jobing.com, government jobs, the
state website and the Madison newspaper etc.
If you have any questions, please give me a call at 2-4153.

Cynthia,
The Fiscal and Managemetn Analyst 2 position will show as a hot position on
the County's website after 4pm today. We missed the 4pm deadline for Friday,
December 21, 2007. Additionally, I did not save my eamil from Friday, and I
wanted to make sure that you are aware that the Capital Finance Planning
Analyst 3 position must be posted and the applicant must complete an
application that has to be processed by a Human Resources Analyst. Therefore,
the applicants can not send their resumes to Paula Bryant.
Executive Compensation Plan positions (ECP) are the only positons that the
Human Resources Analyst do not process applications for and the applicants
would send their resumes directly to a department head or designated person.
The Capital Fiannce Planning Analyst is in payrange 33JM which is in the
classified service.
If you have any questions, please give me a call at (414) 278-4153.

I started on the draft on 12/19/7. I left a phone message with Pam Bryant
regarding the position description that was provided to James Eggers for the
2008 budget creates. That position description contained no minimum education
and experience requirements as well as knowledge, skills, and abilities. I
started a draft of the document with the information I had. Today, Pat
provided me with an e-mail communication from you dated 12/21/07 that lists
additional information, however, it does not list specific knowledge, skills,
and abilities. As soon as I have that information, I will complete the draft.

Fiscal and Management Analyst Position Description.doc
ATTNNZ6U

James Tate has been working very hard with us on getting position descriptions
and announcements finalized for posting the Fiscal and Management Analyst
position and the Capital Finance and Planning position. I believe we are ready
to post externally.
Per the below I am attaching places where I would like both of these positions
posted. Due to cost and deadlines, I would SKIP GFOA. Patricia has indicated
that HR can assist by posting these announcements on the attached. I would
appreciate that and would like the deadline for application for BOTH positions
to be Friday January 25. Please let me know if there is anything else you need
from me to accomplish this. I just talked to Patricia and we are in agreement
that depending on cost, we should post these in the Milwaukee and Madison
newspapers on Sunday the 6th, 13th and 20th with due date of January 25. DAS
will be crosscharged for this expense. She will get back to me on cost. Also,
Dashal will take care of emailing the announcements to the schools on the
attached.

James, on another topic, Mr. Eggers indicated we would have a decision on the
reclass of the Risk Manager before he left on January 4. Do yo know what the
status is? I would also like to at least get this announced as soon as
possible with interviews not taking place until after Board approval.

Cynthia,
DHR can help you with this or you may elect to post the information on the
websites yourself. I will gladly have the new HR Specialist Dashal Young
handle the posting for you.
Dashal and I will work with you prior to posting to make sure that we cover all
areas so that we can get the best candidate.

Thanks for the call today. I just found the attached that shows where we
posted our jobs in the past -- mostly graduate schools. Would HR handle this
or is this something we would do here?
PS -- on the attached I would skip GFOA since they are only a monthly
publication and somewhat expensive.
Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks.

Recruitment funds
Thursday, December 27, 2007 1:46:15 PM

Karen, I am working with your department to post two positions and eventually
there will be three with the vacant risk manager. I was told that DAS-fiscal
would be crosscharged for posting these positions in the newspaper. DAS-Fiscal
has no funds budgeted for this, but the 2008 Budget did include $50,000
additional recruitment funds in HR. Can these posting charges come from these
new $ instead of crosscharging these expenses to DAS-Fiscal?

You make me smile!
I too did not send any Christmas cards (except yours) so I am a scrooge as
well. I also bought no Christmas presents except for Penny of course. Scrooge
again.
I heard on TV last night that there is going to be a special on National
Geographic Channel called Dogtown and it is all about your Best Friends Animal
Sanctuary. I did not get the date however but it is in the next several days.
I hope you know my gift is in honor of all your hard work.
Here is hoping for a better year for all the less fortunate creatures. (If
Calvin and Penny only knew how good they have it!!!!)

Cindy, Cindy, Cindy…
So first I glance down at my file of mail this morning and see your return
address…and I instantly feel like a real weenie because I didn’t send out ONE
Christmas card this year (Bah Humbug)! And I know how hard it is for you to
actually find the time to shop for a card, send it out, etc….so I am thinking
“Man, if CINDY took the time to send out Christmas cards, then I’m REALLY a

CArcher_Email3017153

weenie!” So I sheepishly open it up only to see the icing on the cake…your
wonderful check to the Humane Society. Cindy, I am completely overwhelmed at
your thoughtfulness and generosity…and especially now, across the miles. Thank
you seems so inadequate…but since I am sitting here in amazement, at a loss for
words, I will say simply….THANK YOU. I cannot wait to bring this over to them!!
I spend Christmas Eve day and Christmas morning at the Humane Society helping
out. On Christmas morning I held and stroked the head of a beautiful Collie
with two broken legs while they euthanized him (owners called, they didn’t want
him and he was suffering). Disappointed again in mankind, I cried the rest of
the morning until miraculously, the little 14-year-old, blind-in-one-eye poodle
that my brother had found the night before (and I had slept on the floor with
all night) got picked up by her joyful, appreciative owners. Like you said in
your card, you have to cherish the successes. I guess God closes one door and
opens another…
I hope you are well and had a wonderful holiday. Again, thank you from the
bottom of my heart, Cindy—you will never know how much I appreciate your gift
to the homeless animals.
Hugs,
Molly

I looked on the National Geographic Channel webpage. It appears it is on
Sunday Jan 13 at 11:00 and Friday Jan 18 at 5:00. I am going to program my
digital recorder tonight so as not to miss it. Maybe you and Jeff are in it.
Speak of pampering. Penny awoke last night with what I think is a mild ear
infection. She sat on the bed next to my head scratching her ear, shaking her
head and panting until I got up. I got the medicine out and cleaner her ear
and let her outside to cool off. Buy you know how things are once you start
scratching it gets irritated and you want to scratch more. So I sat up with
her for an hour rubbing her belly until she calmed down and fell asleep in my
arms. Just like a baby. We have started a new thing. We spoon in bed under
the covers until we fall asleep. At some point I roll over and then she goes
down my legs and sleeps with chin either on my legs or on my feet. I am
convinced she does this so she will know if I get up. Heaven forbid I go
somewhere without her. Well anyway, Linda came to visit over the holidays and
when she saw us spooning in the small bed, she said just forget it, I will
sleep in the guest room...ha, ha. She is such a big baby (Penny that is, not
Linda).

I am forwarding this message to my home so I remember to watch out for that
Dogtown piece on National Geographic! I hope you can watch it as well—you
would LOVE it out there! So beautiful and all the creatures are so HAPPY!

CArcher_Email3017160

Jeff and I don’t exchange for Christmas (we just pool the money and either buy
something BAHS needs or just donate the cash), but Jeff did come out with a
wrapped box this year—and in it was one shirt and one sweatshirt, both from
Best Friends. He said he knows how much I love it when I wear my other one and
someone says “Oh, I heard of Best Friends—have YOU been there?!?!”…and then I
get to excitedly tell them all about it. He is very sweet.
Yes, I do know your gift is in honor of my hard work…which makes it all the
more thoughtful, all the more cherished, all the more worth it. It amazes me
when people like you give me kudos because sometimes it feels to me like I can
never do enough for the animals. But I know, I know…cherish the successes! J
When that little old decrepit dog stayed overnight at our house on Christmas
Eve, I heard Jeff whispering to Calvin on the couch that he had to be good and
share his house with “the old gal” temporarily because she didn’t have it half
as good as he did. It was cute. And ain’t that the truth!
Hugs to Sweet Penny Rocket…

Please note the below. Both the Capital Finance and Planning Analyst and the
Fiscal Management Analysts are being actively recruited for with an application
deadline date of January 25. They are posted on our webpage and will posted in
both the Milwaukee Journal and the Madison newspapers on Sundays. Also, Dashal
will send copies of the announcements to a number of schools that I identified
on a previous email. While I am on vacation, Molly will take the lead in
scheduling interviews for appropriate candidates that were already on the cert
list for the FAMA. However, since this was a continuos recruitment many of the
applications are dated so I am not sure we will find anything productive, but
we need to get through that list.
I know we would all like to move quickly on getting staffed up since we are
already doing the planning for the 2009 budget. With HR's help, I am
optimistic we can accomplish this.
Thanks to HR for all your assistance!

You probably won't like my response below but what happened to our own
department helping each other out? In the absense of criteria, her decision is
abitrary and shortsighted. I do recall we just excersised discreation to allow
for extensive remodeling of HR and Employee benefits. I suggest she re-think
this. As you can tell this ticks me off. In the very beginning I do recall
that I advocated for a recrutiment initiative similar to the one I put in place
at Corrections long before anyone else thought about it. Again, I suggest she
give this more thought..

2008 Budgets
Monday, December 31, 2007 10:03:54 AM

It was my goal for the 2008 operating budget and the 2008 capital budget to go
to print while I was on vacation. I have reviewed and signed off on the
operating budget so I assume it is ready to go to print. I was prepared to
sign off on the capital budget today but was just told by James that the copy
on the counter did not include all the amendments hence it was not complete. I
would still like to get the capital budget complete before I leave so that it
can go to print while I am gone.
Are we all on the same page with the above plan?

James, I know you are looking forward to getting out of there, but I thought
you said you would get back to me on your decision related to the Risk Manager
before January 4. Is that still the plan?

I hope all of you had a safe and happy new year!
Collectively we have identified the target dates on the attached for planning
purposes. Take a look at these and provide me your feedback if any -especially if something significant is missing. Pam, I think we should work
off the assumption that POB legislation passes the last two weeks of January.
I will talk to CEX office about it to see if they have heard anything. For
now, we should work on plugging in dates for POB meetings, Board
review/approval and issuance. We can talk tomorrow.

POB Legislation
Monday, December 31, 2007 3:10:59 PM

Has anyone heard from Madison about the prospect of our POB legislation passing
in the floor period at the end of January? If not, can we reach out to someone
on the status? I am working on our planning calendar for 2008 and once (if)
legislation passes, there are still many hurdles to go through (both internal
and external). If there is anyway to light a fire on this, now would be the
time. :)

I am pleased to report (we have not released this publicly yet) we have met the
fundraising goals to meet the $5 million Bradley Foundation challenge grant.
The Bradley Foundation has already sent us a check for $1 million as the first
installment of that pledge. That is being deposited today. We will be wiring
funds as soon as available from this deposit to be used toward the paydown of
the current $3 million revolver debt that is part of the overall County
guaranteed debt. We will keep you informed as we receive funds and make
further redections in the debt.
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Ed has been leading the charge on this and has a direct line to Rep Stone. I
know others have joined in support in addition to Spencer Coggs, but I don't
know the time line.

        POB Legislation





Has anyone heard from Madison about the prospect of our POB legislation passing
in the floor period at the end of January? If not, can we reach out to someone
on the status? I am working on our planning calendar for 2008 and once (if)
legislation passes, there are still many hurdles to go through (both internal
and external). If there is anyway to light a fire on this, now would be the
time. :)
