            The Newberry County Council shall fix by Resolution a tax millage rate sufficient to support the appropriations and levies herein made and shall advise the Auditor who shall set said millage as advised by the County Council, and the Auditor, pursuant to §4-15-150 of the S.C. Code of Laws, 1976, as amended, shall also set the millage rate necessary to raise the levy for debt service on bonded indebtedness.  To the extent required by Section 6-1-320 of the S.C. Code of Laws, 1976, as amended, any millage rate set above that for the previous fiscal year, which shall be in excess of the increase of average of the twelve monthly consumer price indexes for the most recent twelve month period consisting of January though December of the preceding calendar year, i.e. 2007, plus the percentage increase in the previous year in the population of the County as determined by the Office of Research and Statistics of the State Budget and Control Board, shall only be imposed by a two thirds vote of the membership of Newberry County Council and only for one or more of those five purposes specified in Section 6-1-320 (B) of the S.C. Code of Laws, 1976, as amended, to wit: (1) the deficiency of the preceding year; (2) any catastrophic event outside the control of the governing body such as a natural disaster, severe weather event, act of God, or act of terrorism, fire, war, or riot; (3)  compliance with a court order or decree; (4) taxpayer closure due to circumstances outside the control of the governing body that decreases by ten percent or more the amount of revenue payable to the taxing jurisdiction in the preceding year; or (5) compliance with a regulation promulgated or statute enacted by the federal or state government after the ratification  date of the amendments to § 6-1-320 set forth in 2006 Act No. 388, Pt II, § 2.A., for which  an appropriation or a method for obtaining an appropriation is not provided by the federal or state government. Any such tax imposed for such purpose must be listed on the tax statement as a separate surcharge, with an explanation of the reason for each separate surcharge.

 

Reserve Fund Maintenance

 

  In accordance with Code Section 6-1-320 (D) of the South Carolina Code of Laws 1976, as amended, Newberry County Council instructs the County Auditor to levy a separate Reserve Fund Maintenance Millage for purposes of ensuring the County’s ability to maintain sufficient financial reserves to meet unforeseen budgetary needs of the County, and to ensure the timely expenditure of budgeted appropriations.  Such millage shall be levied subsequent to the adoption of this and all future annual operating budgets, together with any amendments thereto, with such levy producing the funding necessary, as specifically budgeted, to maintain the Reserve Fund.  For any year(s) in which County Council does not specifically budget revenue needs for this purpose, the millage levy shall nonetheless be nominally printed on the tax bills as a “Reserve Fund” levy, expressing the need for no ad valorem taxation (0.00 mills) for this purpose.

 

SECTION XIII.  TRANSFERRING  OF FUNDS

 

            The County Administrator may, if he deems it in the best interest of the County and within the appropriations provided by this ordinance, transfer funds or any portion thereof from any fund, department, activity, or purpose to another fund, department, activity, or purpose.  Amounts over $5,000 from the Contingency Fund shall be transferred by the County Council.  Neither the Administrator, nor any Department Head, may establish or fund any new position without the knowledge and consent of the County Council.

 

SECTION  XIV.  BUDGET PROVISOS

 

            The Budget Provisos attached hereto are incorporated herein by reference and shall be published in the Budget Book as part of the County Budget for the Fiscal Year 2008-2009.  Unless otherwise directed by this Ordinance, these Provisos shall govern the expenditures made by  the County and the conduct of those recipients of such funds with regard to the matters mentioned therein.

 

SECTION XV.  TAX ANTICIPATION BORROWING

           

            In the event that County Council determines that it is necessary to borrow money in order to meet the operational cash flow needs of the County for this fiscal year until sufficient tax revenues have been collected, the County, as authorized by subsequent Resolution or Resolutions of Newberry County Council, may borrow sufficient funds to meet such operational cash flow needs, by executing one or more tax anticipation notes, in a total amount outstanding not to exceed Four Million ($4,000,000) Dollars, said sums to be repaid on such terms as County Council may negotiate from  tax collections for the Fiscal Year 2008-2009, with all amounts borrowed to be repaid prior to the end of such fiscal year.

 

SECTION XVI.  SEVERABILITY

 

            If any clause, phrase, sentence, paragraph, appropriation, or section of this Ordinance shall be held invalid, it shall not affect the validity of the remainder of this Ordinance or of the remaining phrases, clauses, sentences, paragraphs, appropriations, or sections not affected by such invalidity.

 

SECTION XVII.  EFFECTIVE DATE

 

            This Ordinance shall become effective when adopted and shall govern the revenues and expenditures for the Fiscal Year 2008-2009, which commences on July 1, 2008, including the disposition of funds carried forward from the prior fiscal year, unless otherwise encumbered.
