When I first took office, I made a commitment to build the bridge to a sustainable and fiscally responsible future, and that commitment is paying dividends. We continue to develop innovative ways to improve the quality of life for our residents, implement 21st century enhancements to the delivery of City services, and work assiduously to transform Albany into a city where every neighborhood works. Holding the Line on Spending and Investing in Our People This budget builds upon our mission to create a fiscally sustainable future for our City by growing only one-and-a-quarter percent (1.25%) over last year. Since taking office, my budgets have grown less than two percent (1.87%) over the past six years combined – including consecutive annual budget decreases in 2017 and 2018. We achieved those accomplishments while stabilizing our A+ credit rating, reducing our fiscal stress score by more than 31%, settling 15 expired union contracts, and providing across-the-board raises totaling 4% for all non-union City employees over the last three years. Revitalizing Our City’s Infrastructure with a Focus on Equity While fiscal responsibility is critical, it is also important to focus on improving the quality of life for our residents. We have committed more than $27 million to street and sidewalk repairs since I took office, but we must continue to improve our infrastructure. That is why my 2020 budget includes a $7.5 million commitment to reconstruct streets and sidewalks across the City – a $2 million increase from the 2019 budget. We also project investing more than $31 million in street and sidewalk reconstruction through 2024. My budget also includes an investment of approximately $7 million to fund several transformative projects as part of Governor Cuomo’s Downtown Revitalization Initiative – investments that are backed by more than $5 million in reimbursable state grants. In addition to the City’s budgeted street and sidewalk investments, the Albany Water Department will also invest more than $13 million in stormwater and sewer infrastructure improvements across the City to help combat the heavy-rain events that have become the new normal. Strengthening our Commitment to Park Revitalization and Recreational Opportunities We know that neighborhoods are stronger when they have safe places for children to play and for people of all ages to enjoy. That is why since taking office, my administration has revitalized 16 parks across the City. This budget expands on that commitment by allocating funds to revitalize several playgrounds in the South End and West Hill neighborhoods, and includes $1 million to implement improvements in Lincoln Park that were recommended as part of that park’s Master Plan. We have also allocated funding to further enhance our award-winning Summer Youth Employment Program, extend weekend hours in our community centers, and offer additional programming for our senior population. ---PAGE BREAK--- 2 CITY OF ALBANY 2020 PROPOSED BUDGET This budget further invests in our parks by expanding the capacity of the Department of General Services to assume responsibility of all park maintenance in the City – discontinuing a decades-long practice of sharing park maintenance between DGS and the Department of Recreation. This reorganization will help reduce redundancies, ensure consistent upkeep of our public spaces, and improve quality of life throughout the City. Improving Service Delivery Across City Departments In order to meet our residents’ expectations, we must make it easy to access City services. We have made tremendous strides in improving service delivery over the past six years, but we understand there is always room for improvement. That is why my 2020 budget includes a new senior staff position: Chief of Operations. This City official will report directly to me and be tasked with assessing and leading the improvement of performance and service delivery within our organization – all with the goal of improving constituent satisfaction with City services. This budget also reflects service delivery improvements within our nationally recognized Albany Police Department. We have allocated resources to build-out a new training facility that will allow the Department to significantly increase the number of police recruits in future academy classes, and create a future revenue opportunity by utilizing the space to train other police departments across the Capital Region. Ensuring Albany Receives Its Fair Share – Permanently This year, my administration was successful in securing $12 million in unrestricted Capital City Funding – necessary aid that was not a spin up, allowing us to avoid borrowing against our future. This 2020 budget again includes $12.5 million in Capital City Funding, which we will relentlessly fight to make permanent. We continue to make a unique, compelling, and indisputable case to State leaders that Albany is treated like no other city in the State, receiving far less unrestricted aid than we deserve while supporting a staggering 64% of non-taxable property – nearly 60% of which is owned by New York State. The cost of maintaining roads and sidewalks and providing police, fire, and emergency services to accommodate and protect the tens of thousands of State workers and visitors falls on our residents. Providing this level of service while being denied our fair share of permanent, unrestricted state aid is not fair and is not sustainable. No other city in New York State is forced to endure this situation every year, and we cannot ask our residents, businesses, and taxpayers to carry a larger burden simply because they choose to make the Capital City their home. ---PAGE BREAK--- 3 MAYOR’S LETTER Ensuring Albany Counts In order for Albany to truly receive its fair share, we also must ensure every person counts. Billions of dollars in federal aid will be distributed based on the results of the 2020 Census. That is why I have convened the City of Albany Complete Count Committee – a group of community organizations, educational institutions, Common Council Members, and County Legislators. These trusted voices have committed themselves to developing an outreach plan and sharing information with the community on why it’s critically important that our residents participate in the 2020 Census and be counted. The 2010 Census counted 97,856 residents in Albany. However, we are aware of significant undercounts in many of our neighborhoods. This puts us in a prime position to eclipse our goal of 100,000 residents counted during the 2020 Census – a benchmark that would come with additional state and federal funding opportunities for integral programs like Head Start, road repair grants, and workforce training programs. This budget emphasizes the vital importance of the 2020 Census by committing $50,000 for outreach and marketing that will be directly managed by my office. Over the past six years, my administration has fulfilled my pledge to serve the residents of Albany by ensuring responsive City government, equitably improving our neighborhoods, pursuing essential economic development, and fostering sound fiscal management. This budget is, once again, a direct reflection of that pledge at work. I look forward to working with the residents of the City of Albany and members of the Common Council to approve this budget, and to continue making Albany a city where every neighborhood works. Sincerely, KATHY SHEEHAN MAYOR, CITY OF ALBANY ---PAGE BREAK--- 4 CITY OF ALBANY 2020 PROPOSED BUDGET CAPITAL CITY FUNDING: municipal aid provided by New York State to make up for the lack of Aid and Incentives for Municipalities (AIM) Albany receives per capita compared to all other cities in New York State with populations of 50,000 and more. In 2018 and 2019, this aid was provided as unrestricted aid, and was not a “spin up,” allowing the City to avoid borrowing against our future. CONTINGENCY: a fund of reserve money set aside to cover possible unforeseen future expenses, such as emergency repairs or settlements. COST SAVINGS MEASURES: initiatives proposed by departments and offices to reduce expenditures and become more efficient. E-GOV (Electronic Government): refers to a new online portal (jobs.albanyny.gov) that allows employees and the public to apply for City jobs and exams online. EQUITY AGENDA: the philosophy guiding the City of Albany’s decisions and policies. This agenda is built on the principles of accessibility and inclusion, with a focus on initiatives addressing economic, racial, and social inequality, especially in neighborhoods that have been historically marginalized. ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning): refers to a centralized management software, in the City’s case New World, that helps collect, store, manage, integrate, interpret, and plan important financial and personnel data in real time – with the goal to enhance departmental and city- wide efficiencies. FTE: Full Time Employee. FUND BALANCE: the accumulated total of surpluses. Sometimes referred to as a “rainy day” fund. New York State recommends a municipality’s fund balance be equal to approximately 10% of its annual budget. LEAN: a management philosophy used internationally to make operations more efficient and effective. The program is designed to identify deployment of resources, methodologies, and redundancies, create metrics and cost drivers, and outline long-term strategies for a 21st Century City. In September 2017, Albany was the first municipality outside of the state’s workforce to be trained by New York State’s LEAN Office. In 2019, Albany received the first- ever New York State “Outstanding Lean Performance” award. PFM REPORT: (also known as the “City of Albany, New York FY2017-FY2020 Financial Options” report) a financial review and recommendation document published by the PFM Group, in consultation with New York State, after undertaking a thorough review of the City of Albany’s finances, policies, and procedures. SEE CLICK FIX: an online constituent relationship management software platform that allows constituents to report various issues, such as potholes, illegal garbage, light outages, and codes violations throughout the City, and track their resolution progress in real-time. SHARED SERVICES: an initiative underway among Rockefeller Institute of Government, Albany County, and the municipalities within to develop new ways to reduce expenditures and increase efficiencies by partnering together to undertake certain projects and procedures jointly. SPIN UP: the act of requesting Capital City Funding in exchange for accepting an advance payment on the New York State Public Lands Law 19-A Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) that the City of Albany will receive until at least 2032. SURPLUS: the amount of money left over at the end of a budget year after all expenditures are paid and revenues are realized. VACANCY SAVINGS: this budget line reflects the amount of money a department can account for when individual positions are not filled because of resignation or termination of employment for a period during the budget year.

The Treasurer is responsible for payment of all vouchers, claims, payroll, and other authorized disbursements, as well as investing City funds, maintaining records of all transactions, and providing data to the public as requested. The Parking Violations Bureau, as part of the Treasurer’s Office, collects fines imposed on illegally parked vehicles by the Albany Parking Authority and Albany Police Department. • Recognized by the New York State Comptroller for prudent financial management by lowering the City’s Fiscal Stress Score for the third straight year – adjusting their determination from “significant fiscal stress” to now only being “susceptible to fiscal stress”. The bond markets continue to respond to this prudent management with low interest rates for City debt, and a bond rating of A+ with a stable outlook. • Continued to optimize the use of new property tax billing software and expanded the online bill payment system, and took over responsibility of billing and adjudicating exemption applications for the Waste Collection Fee. • By better utilizing billing software, property tax delinquencies have been cut by 625 properties and nearly $900,000 from 2015 to 2018, and tax bill returns from about 2,000 bills to about 500. Early indications for 2019 are for a continued reduction in delinquencies and increase in tax collections. • Advocated for legislative changes to enable the Treasurer’s Office to permit payment of tax bills in installments. This change would permit taxpayers to pay half of their bill without penalty, and delay payment of the second half until financially able. Additionally, at the Treasurer’s request, the Council passed a local law, pursuant to New York State authority, to permit eligible Seniors to pay their property tax bill five days late without penalty. • By upgrading our e-capabilities, we have enabled customers to easily and quickly search for tax information online or contact the office via e-mail. This has led to a continued sharp increase in self- service, and a reduction in both phone calls and e-mail requests to the office. The e-capabilities proved extremely helpful during the extension of Waste Collection Fee billing to all appropriate City property owners, rather than solely multi-family units, as taxpayers were able to utilize information electronically to answer questions and pay bills.

Included in this comprehensive program is a new Inventory Control Manager position, the purchase of a citywide asset tracking & barcoding system, as well as several new protocols and procedures for the assignment and allocation of tools, equipment and consumable products. • Implement a departmental reorganization that efficiently utilizes and ensures services are not duplicated or not delivered due to issues “falling through the cracks.” • Service and maintain all parks throughout the city using data, metrics, and other techniques. • Increase community engagement by developing new ways to empower our residents to engage with the city especially with regards to quality of life issues. • Continue to automate day to day data collection so we may increase the levels of service through metric evaluations. ---PAGE BREAK--- 48 CITY OF ALBANY 2020 PROPOSED BUDGET DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL SERVICES 2019 2020 Adopted Proposed DIVISION OF GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION FTE Budget FTE Budget 10 PERSONAL SERVICES INDIVIDUAL 7000 Commissioner 1 102,724 1 103,751 7000 Executive Deputy Commissioner 1 96,173 7000 Deputy Commissioner 1 80,901 1 85,901 7000 Superintendent of Sanitation Services 1 91,173 7000 Assistant Commissioner 1 78,919 7000 Director of Operations 1 73,919 7000 Assistant Director of Operations 1 51,510 1 58,146 7000 Public Works Inspector 1 37,000 7000 Chief Financial Manager 1 63,978 7000 Asset Management Specialist 1 45,000 1 45,450 7000 Financial Analyst 1 45,000 7000 Payroll/Office Manager 1 42,000 7000 Confidential Assistant 1 38,459 1 49,234 7000 Building Alterations Coordinator 1 65,775 1 66,433 7000 Community Relations Coordinator 1 53,570 1 54,106 7000 Planning Unit Recycling Coordinator 1 46,359 1 46,823 7000 Recycling Specialist 1 41,208 1 41,620 7000 Event Assistant 1 39,234 7000 Plumber 2 58,404 2 58,988 7000 Electrician 1 58,404 1 58,988 7000 Carpenter 3 55,503 3 56,058 7000 Supervisor 1 50,398 1 50,398 7000 Painter II 3 48,997 3 48,997 7000 Custodial Worker II 3 35,006 3 35,006 7000 Custodial Worker I 6 29,702 6 29,702 7000 Information Clerk III 1 37,370 1 37,744 7000 Information Clerk II 4 33,119 4 33,450 7000 Community Aide 1 31,869 1 32,188 7000 Clerk Typist I 1 31,870 1 32,189 7000 Information Clerk I 1 33,119 1 33,450 7000 Information Clerk I 1 31,712 1 32,029 7000 Information Clerk I (p/t) 16,780 16,948 Category Totals: 41 42 ---PAGE BREAK--- 49 OPERATING BUDGET EXPENDITURES BY DEPARTMENT DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL SERVICES 2019 2019 2020 2018 Adopted Amended Proposed Actuals Budget Budget Budget 10 PERSONAL SERVICES 7000 Salaries 1,681,616 1,931,347 1,930,743 1,994,661 7199 Overtime 64,682 72,500 73,104 72,500 Category Totals: 1,746,298 2,003,847 2,003,847 2,067,161 20 EQUIPMENT 7250 Other Equipment -

Following the last City-wide reassessment in 2016, the Department strives to keep an updated and accurate Assessment Roll which results in equitable School and Property Tax Rolls. The Department updates the Assessment Roll on an annual basis by updating property records, reviewing new construction projects, and inspecting any additions or demolitions to existing properties to ensure that any modifications to real property within the City of Albany are accurately reflected on the Roll. The Department is also responsible for administering various exemption programs that property owners may qualify for, as well as providing customer service to the public regarding inquiries relating to real property within the City. Members of the Department represent the City in Small Claims hearings where residential property owners may dispute the assessed value of their property. The Department also assists the Corporation Counsel’s office in handling commercial property disputes in New York State Supreme Court. 2019 ACCOMPLISHMENTS • Worked with property owners and other City departments to ensure an accurate Assessment Roll is maintained. • Worked with the City Treasurer in order to ensure that the information used for the waste collection fee is up to date and accurate. • Undertook a detailed review of various exemptions in an effort to identify properties which may be improperly receiving exemptions. To date, such review has resulted in several million dollars of taxable value properly added back on the City’s Assessment Roll. • In 2019, New York State took administration of the STAR exemption over from the local municipalities. Such a change caused a great amount of concern for residential property owners.
