Executive Summary
The following information presents Whatcom Countys fourth quarter 2011 financial report. At yearend Whatcom Countys General Fund collected 95.8% of its budgeted revenues. Whatcom Countys General Fund spent 91.8% of its budgeted expenditures. The estimated 2011 General Fund ending fund balance is projected to be approximately $10 million. This is an increase of $800,000 from the 2010 ending fund balance. The increase is primarily due to collection of delinquent taxes together with the associated penalties and interest. The spikes in collections of delinquent taxes were received from mortgage companies and new owners of foreclosed properties. These payments are not considered to be a new source of ongoing revenues.

Intergovernmental Revenue
Intergovernmental Revenue comes from a variety of sources including grant revenue, state entitlements and payment for intergovernmental services rendered. Revenues collected as of year end were $2,905,953 less than budget, which is 83.6% of budget. Due to state funding cuts and project delays, the Health Department is not expected to receive $1,145,000 of grant revenues budgeted for 2011. Year-end grant adjustments will result in additional revenues significantly closer to budget targets. Whatcom Countys Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILT) revenue from the federal government is $141,000 more than budget.

Miscellaneous
Miscellaneous revenues are made up of interest earnings, rents, contributions, refunds, and various small, otherwise unclassified, amounts. After year end adjustments are made, miscellaneous revenues should end up about $23,000 ahead of budget and about $45,000 less than 2010 amounts. Investment interest earnings continue to decrease and are approximately $260,000 or 21% less than 2010 amounts. The average annual yield earned in 2011 was .88%, this is down from 1.35% earned in 2010. Rents and royalties income has increased $176,000 over 2010 amounts due to increases in cable franchise fees and moving parking space rentals from Administrative Services to the General Fund in 2011.

Accounting for interfund loans used to finance the Central Plaza Building purchase and the AssessorTreasurer System in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles has the effect of artificially reducing the fund balance. This happens because the capital purchases are shown as expenditures but the loan proceeds are not presented as revenues in the income statement but only as a liability on the balance sheet. The interfund loan adjustment presented above reflects a positive impact on the cash balance of the County General Fund.
