Additional Risks: HHC & NYCHA HHC HHC’s operating deficits grow from $618m in FY 2016 to $1.5b in FY 2019 (cash basis) Corrective actions to reduce deficit by $475m in FY 2016 are questionable City’s plan for HHC to assume health service provision for correctional facilities could further strain resources NYCHA NYCHA’s operating gap grows from $150m in 2016 to $194m in FY 2019 $17b in capital needs Mayor providing over $100m in annual operating support NYCHA & City released 10- year strategic plan; includes CBC’s recommendations 30
31
CBC’s Concerns Operating Budget Additional expenditures will likely be added Savings Program is too small, not sufficiently focused on efficiencies that produce recurring savings to boost reserves Majority of healthcare savings counted toward MLC & City targets are artificial HHC & NYCHA’s financial challenges persist Capital and Debt Capital plan is very large, debt service is growing No use of pay-as-you-go capital to limit debt increases Reporting on capital spending is inadequate 31
