SUBJECT : Fiscal Year 1984-85 Mid-Year Financial Review
DATE : February 20 , 1985
This report provides an overview of the City ' s financial condition at the
mid-point of Fiscal Year 1984-85 . Budget projections are revised for both
revenues and expenditures based on what has occurred during the first half
of the fiscal year and what the City can likely expect to occur during the
second six months of the fiscal year. This report reviews both revenues
and expenditures , as well as their impact on reserve funds .
1984-85 Revenues
Staff has prepared revised revenue estimates for Fiscal Year 1984-85 as
shown in Exhibit A ( see attached ) . The first column identifies the total
revenues received by the City during the prior fiscal year , 1983-84. The
second column identifies the revenues which the City has already received
or will receive for, the six month period ending 12/31/84. All figures ,
with the exception of sales tax, are based on actual revenue received to
date . The sales tax revenue estimate is based on actual sales tax receipts
through 11/6/84 plus an estimate of revenues to be received for November
and December 1984. The second column more accurately represents the City ' s
actual receipts as of 12/31/84 than is represented in the 12/31/84
financial statement which was previously provided to the City Council . The
third column shown in Exhibit A identifies revenue estimates included as
part of the 1984-85 City Budget which was adopted by the City Council in
June of 1984. The fourth column identifies revised revenue estimates for
Fiscal Year 1984-85 . These revisions are based upon actual receipts ,
conversations with the State and County Officials , who disburse revenues to
the City ; and also conversations with private developers regarding the
timing of private development and the impact of that development on capital
projects .
The revised 1984-85 revenue estimate is $8 ,490 ,620 or approximately
$1 ,140 , 000 (15 . 5/) more than estimated in the 1984-85 adopted City Budget .
There are several primary reasons for increased revenues .
1 . Sales Tax ($720 , 000) - Since the 1984-85 Budget was adopted prior to
settlement of the City ' s sales tax lawsuit , sales tax revenue estimates
were budgeted at the 95% rate and did not include the sales tax settlement
of approximately $300 , 000 . These two factors alone account for an addi-
tional $485 , 000 in sales tax revenue . In addition, the economy has been
very strong during the first six months of the Fiscal Year, accounting for
the remaining sales tax revenue of $235 ,000.
2 . Interest ($343 , 000) - Interest revenue for 1984-85 are estimated at
$900 , 000 . This is attributable to a one time interest payment of $34,600
which the City received from Alameda County in conjunction with the sales
tax settlement ; an average interest rate of 11 . 8/ on investments during the
first six months of the Fiscal Year , while the budget was predicated upon a
10% return ; and a late start on capital improvement projects , which made
available larger sums of money to invest .
3 . Special Benefit Assessments ( $143 , 446) - At the time the 1984-85
Budget was approved , the Special Benefit Assessments had not been recog-
nized as revenues because their status as a legitimate revenue was clouded
by the Jarvis Proposition . Since the defeat of that measure , these monies
must be recognized as revenues . It is anticipated that $27 ,000 will be
generated by Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District 83-2 ( Amador
Lakes/Larry Lee Development ) ; and $116 , 446 by the City' s Street Light
Assessment District 83-1 .
4 . Hotel Transient Occupancy Tax ($131 , 500) - The City Council enacted
this tax after the adoption of the 1984-85 Budget . This tax became
effective in mid-October . Therefore , the estimated revenue generated from
this tax represents approximately 8 1/2 months of receipts .

5 . Sales of Property ($125 ,000) - Proceeds from the sale of San Ramon
Road Right-of-Way to Barratt Inc .
These estimated increases in revenue are offset primarily by : 1 ) $140 ,000
less in Park Dedication In-Lieu Fees , all of which was collected during the
last week of June 1984 ; 2 ) $126 , 000 in Park & Recreation Fees which will
not be collected this year ; 3 ) $80 ,000 in Federal Aid Urban revenues
related to the major street rehabilitation project for which the City will
not be reimbursed during 1984-85 ; 4) $58 ,000 in reimbursements related to
Capital Improvement Projects which will not be completed during 19$4-85 •
1984-85 Expenditures
City operating expenditures for this fiscal year are anticipated to be
$3 , 145 , 971 which is $214 ,000 or 6 . 4% less than budgeted. This is primarily
attributable to the following factors :
' 1 . Delayed recruitments in Planning, Recreation and Police .
2 . Underutilization of litigation reserve .
3 . Overtime and salary savings with Sheriff ' s contract .
4. Delayed recruitment of additional animal control field services
officer by County .
5 . Savings on slurry seal contract .
6 . Delays in program development in Recreation.
7 . Savings on Planning Consultant ' s services .
8 . Lower level of building inspection activity than anticipated .
These savings are partially offset by increased insurance costs ; and
increased engineering costs which are due to the increased demand for
engineering services .
Estimated Capital Improvement expenditures for Fiscal Year 1984-85 total
$2 , 382 , 000 , which is approximately 50% of the total amount budgeted . This
under-expenditure of budgeted funds is primarily due to the following:
1 . Several projects will not be fully underway until summer of 1985 •
These projects include :
a . Dublin Boulevard Utility Underground Project
b . San Ramon Road ( Phase II )
C . Landscaping Major Arterials
2 . The City has not made sufficient progress with other agencies in
j order to proceed with some projects , and therefore , it is likely that
no costs will be incurred during 1984-85 . These projects include :
a . Sewage Facility Expansion
b . San Ramon Road/Alcosta Boulevard Traffic Signal
C . Bus Shelters
d. Kolb Park
i J
3 . The City has realized substantial savings in recent construction
contracts which have been awarded . This results in actual expense
being less than budgeted .
In addition to the Capital Improvements expenditures identified , it is also
possible that the San Ramon Road Specific Plan Area Assessment District
could be formed this fiscal year . As you may recall , the Assessment
District would provide for the westerly extension of Amador Valley
Boulevard along with improvements to the west side of San Ramon Road in
that vicinity . If this district is formed , bonds would be issued and some
expense could be incurred . It is not known at this time whether that would
occur prior to the end of the Fiscal Year.
As indicated in the attached exhibits , revenues should surpass expenditures
by $2 .96 million. Although some of the difference will be encumbered for
partially completed projects , the remainder will still positively impact
the City ' s reserves . This will enable the City to continue to upgrade
services to the community and undertake additional Opital improvements .
