Department of Motor Vehicles

 

 The enacted budget makes the following changes to the Executive Budget (analysis as of March 27, 2012):

 

·        No changes to the proposed All Funds State Operations ($119.5 million) or Capital Projects ($194.2 million) appropriations.

·        Rejects the broad Executive Budget proposal to allow the Executive to have unlimited transfer and interchange authority over all State Operations appropriations. Instead it creates four specific transfer and interchange authorities for State Operation appropriations: OGS/Back Office, Call Center, and Information Technology. In general this authority allows the Executive to move appropriations between state agencies for these purposes. For additional detail please see page 5 of the Summary of the SFY 2012-13 Enacted Budget memo.

·        Identifies DMV as a potential Call Center.  Specifically, the Call Center Interchange and Transfer Authority which will allow, for the purpose of planning, developing and/or implementing the consolidation of all State agency call centers into no more than four such centers, the interchange, transfer, or sub-allocation of any State agency appropriation for this purpose to Department of Taxation and Finance, Office of Children and Family Services, Department of Motor Vehicles and Department of Labor.

The Senate and Assembly recommend (analysis as of March 14, 2012):

 

The Senate and Assembly concur with all major Executive budget recommendations.

 

The Executive Budget recommends (analysis as of January 21, 2012):

A SFY 2012-13 workforce of 2,414 or an increase of 21 FTEs from the adjusted FTE level for 2011-12 which decreased by -79.  The increase in FTEs is due to employees returning from medical leave and to maintain minimum staffing levels.

 

The following chart identifies adjustments in current fiscal years FTEs along with the recommended differences in FY 2011-12 FTEs by program.

·        DMV will be adding additional transactions to its website to improve customer service and to streamline agency operations. More web transactions help reduce DMV office visits, shorten office wait times and help DMV sustain lower FTE levels.  Due to increased reliance on technology, the level of field operations staff necessary to deliver services has declined by 31 percent over the past ten years.

·        The total appropriation for Personal Service is $133.55 million, a decrease of $1.84 million, or -1.4%.   Decreases of $1.44 million in personal services in the Admin Adjudication Account SRO, or -6.3% and $1 million, or -6.9%  in the Clean Air Program Mobile Source Account SRO are partially offset by a $469,000 increase in the Compulsory Insurance Account SRO.

·        The total appropriation for Contractual Services is $27.94 million, or an increase of $592,000 or 1.3%.

·          The Department employed an estimated 43 employees under consultant contracts in SFY 2011-12 (or approximately 22 FTEs) at a cost of $4.38 million. It is estimated that 44 consultant employees, or 36 FTEs will be employed in SFY 2012-13 at an estimated cost of $7.28 million. The expenditures may include more than personal service costs and is inconsistent with Office of State Comptroller data on consultant spending so it is difficult to draw conclusions as to the cost per consultant employee.
