I SUBJECT
Zone Amendment (ZA) 25-01 to update Chapter 17.43 - Residential Density Bonus as required by Housing Element Program HE 1.3: Density Bonuses and Other Regulatory Incentives
I RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Ordinance No 866 amending Chapters 17.43 of the Anderson Municipal Code regarding the Residential Density Bonus as introduced on February 3, 2026 (first reading).
I FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact.
I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
In May 2025, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) requested that the City of Anderson provide additional information to demonstrate compliance with state housing law, including Housing Element Program HE 1.3 (Density Bonuses and Other Regulatory Incentives). To address this requirement, City Staff have prepared amendments to Section 17.43 to bring it into alignment with the current State Density Bonus Law, Government Code Sections 65915-65918.
ITEM 6.8a PAGE1 2/17/2026
California Government Code Section 65915 mandates that cities and counties grant developers a density bonus, along with other incentives and waivers of development standards, in exchange for including a certain percentage of affordable housing units in their developments. This law encourages the production of housing for very low-, low-, and moderate-income households by allowing for increased density and reducing development costs.
The current version of the Anderson Municipal Code (AMC) Section 17.43 - Residential Density Bonus was codified in 2011 with Ordinance 771. During the review and update of the 6th Cycle Housing Element 2019-2028, it was determined that AMC Section 17.43 was not in compliance with state law. Zone Amendment (ZA 25-01) is proposed to update the AMC Section 17.43 to reflect the current State requirements for California Government Code Section 65915-65918.
Key Aspects of the Density Bonus Law Include:
• Density Bonus: Developers can increase the maximum number of units allowed on a property beyond the amount set by the local General Plan. • Affordable Housing Units: To qualify for the density bonus, a development must include a specified percentage of units affordable to lower-income, very low-income, or moderate-income households.
• Incentives/Concessions: Local governments must grant these cost-reducing incentives, such as reduced parking requirements or open space requirements, unless they can prove a specific adverse impact on public health, safety, or historical resources.
• Waivers of Development Standards: Local governments must also grant waivers or reductions of physical development standards that would otherwise prevent a project from being built at the bonus density.
• Parking Reduction: Developers can receive a reduction in required parking ratios for their projects.
To be eligible for a density bonus, a housing development must include five or more units and include one of the following criteria:
A minimum percentage of units for very low-, low-, or moderate-income households. • Housing for senior citizens, transitional foster youth, disabled veterans, or homeless persons.
• Student housing for low-income students.
• A land donation for affordable housing or the inclusion of a child-care facility.
Proposed Amendments to Chapter 17.43:
The following list includes a summary of the proposed revisions by subsection for Chapter
17.43. • 17.43.010 - Includes an update to the purpose of intent, including language establishing the updated Government Code (GC) sections 65915 - 65918 as may be amended from time to time. This language specifies the GC sections and allows for consideration of GC updates without necessitating multiple ordinance amendments.
ITEM 6.8a PAGE2 2/17/2026
• 17.43.020(F) - Includes an updated definition of "Density Bonus" as an increase of density over the maximum density of the City General Plan consistent with the density qualifications of Government Code Section 65915. • 17.43.020(0) - Spelling correction for low-income.
• 17.43.030 - Implementation section allows for density bonus and incentives based on specific sections of the government code, based on a sliding scale of housing units and percentage of density increase as per Government Code Sections 65915(b)(1),(k), and (I).
• 17.43.030 - Implementation now applies to projects providing affordable units for student housing, Residential Care Facilities for Elderly, Transitional Foster Youth, disabled veterans, and projects that are one-hundred percent affordable. • 17.43.040 - Development Standards language specifically increases the number of years for restricted affordability to fifty-five years to ensure units retain affordability.
• 17.43.040 Development Standards increases the number of concessions/incentives to 4 for one-hundred percent affordable projects (Gov Code §65915(d)).
• 17.43.050 - Development Incentives: Applicants seeking a waiver or modification of development or zoning standards shall show that such waivers or physical modifications are necessary to make the housing development feasible in accordance with Government Code Section 65915(e).
• 17.43.050 - Development Incentives allow Parking standards are reduced as low as
0.5 spaces/unit for 100% affordable units with Government Code Section 65915(p). • 17.43.060 - Application requirements (Gov Code §6591S(a)-(e)) updated procedural requirements will be provided in a public handout to allow flexibility to accommodate changes to permitting procedures without revisions to the City Municipal Code.
• 17.43.070 - Applicants/developers requesting a density bonus for affordable housing shall agree to enter into an affordable housing agreement with the city. The terms of the draft agreement shall be reviewed and revised as appropriate by the planning director, consistent with Government Code Section 65915, who shall formulate a recommendation for final approval to a City official. • Cities are required to grant the density bonuses for compliant applications unless specific written findings are made.
At its October 27th, 2025, meeting, after careful consideration and review, the Planning Commission approved and adopted P.C. Resolution No. 25-04.
ITEM 6.8a PAGE3 2/17/2026
Environmental Determination:
The City of Anderson finds that this Ordinance is not a "project" according to the definition outlined in the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"), and, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15061(b)(3) (there is no possibility the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment), the adoption of this ordinance is therefore not subject to the provisions requiring environmental review.
PUBLIC NOTICE:
A 20-day public hearing notice of the subject project was published in the RecordSearchlight and in accordance with notice requirements provided in AMC Section
17.54.040 - Zoning Amendments and Government Code Section 65854, requiring a 20-day hearing. The Planning Department received no public comments on the project at the time of this report.

ADOPTING AN AMENDMENT OF THE ANDERSON MUNICIPAL CODE TO UPDATE CHAPTER 17.43 RESIDENTIAL DENSITY BONUS CONSISTENT WITH GOVERNMENT CODE 65915-65918 (CALIFORNIA DENSITY BONUS LAW)
SECTION 3. Chapter 17.43 RESIDENTIAL DENSITY BONUS of Title 17 "ZONING" of the Anderson Municipal Code is amended and replaced to read as follows:
Chapter 17.43 RESIDENTIAL DENSITY BONUS
17.43.010 Purpose and intent.
The purpose of this chapter is to establish policies that implement state housing law under California Government Code Section 65915 through 65918, as may be amended from time to time. Residential Density Bonuses_provide incentives consistent with state law, for the construction of housing units that are affordable to very low-, low-, and moderateincome persons and families. Further, it serves to provide incentives for the construction of housing units that are of unique design quality and configuration ( e.g., clustered housing).
A density bonus is an increase over the otherwise maximum residential density allowable under the zoning ordinance and the general plan. It provides developers an opportunity to increase the number of units within a proposed residential development in exchange for including within the project a specified number of units that are affordable to very low-, low-, or moderate-income persons and families and/or units that are of unique design quality and configuration. State law also allows the city to provide incentives other than, or in addition to, an increase in density for affordable housing if requested by an applicant. Accordingly, the purposes of this chapter are to:
1. Establish procedures for allowing an increase in density above the maximum residential density allowed by the general plan and zoning ordinance.
2. Provide for flexibility in applying zoning regulations and development standards in order to facilitate the development of affordable housing and/ or housing of unique design quality and configuration.
3. Provide incentives to developers to encourage the inclusion of affordable housing within residential projects.
4. Encourage architectural diversity in order to avoid monotonous and repetitive subdivision design and appearance.
5. Preserve and enhance neighborhood appearance through creative building design, use of materials, landscaping, and street layout.
Attachment B - Residential Density Ordinance

17.43.050 of this Chapter.
17.43.040 Development standards.
Affordable units should be constructed concurrently with market-rate units unless both the city and the developer agree within the affordable housing agreement to an alternative schedule for development.
Attachment B - Residential Density Ordinance
page 5 of 10
Affordable units shall remain restricted and affordable to the designated group for a period of fifty-five years ( or a longer period of time if required by the construction or mortgage financing assistance program, mortgage insurance program, or rental subsidy program), under the following circumstances:
1. Both a density bonus and an additional incentive is granted; or
2. An equivalent financial incentive equivalent to a density bonus and an additional incentive is granted.
In determining the maximum affordable rent or affordable sales price of affordable units the following household and unit size assumptions shall be used, unless the housing development is subject to different assumptions imposed by other governmental regulations:
SRO (residential hotel unit): 0.75 person
0 bedroom (studio): 1 person
1 bedroom: 2 persons
2 bedrooms: 3 persons
3 bedrooms: 4 persons
4 bedrooms: 6 persons
Affordable units should be built onsite wherever possible and, when practical, be dispersed within the housing development. Where feasible, the number of bedrooms of the affordable units should be equivalent to the bedroom mix of the market-rate units of the housing development; except that the developer may include a higher proportion of affordable units with more bedrooms. The design and appearance of the affordable units shall be compatible with the design of the total housing development. Housing developments shall comply with all applicable development standards, except those which may be modified as provided by this chapter.
Circumstances may arise in which the public interest would be served by allowing some or all of the affordable units associated with one housing development to be produced and operated at an alternative development site. Where the developer and the city form such an agreement, the resulting linked developments shall be considered a single housing development for purposes of this chapter. Under these circumstances, the developer shall be subject to the same requirements of this chapter for the affordable units to be provided on the alternative site.
An affordable housing agreement shall be made a condition of the discretionary planning permits ( e.g., tract maps, parcel maps, site plans, planned development or conditional use permits, etc.) for all housing developments pursuant to this chapter. The agreement shall be recorded as a restriction on the parcel or parcels on which the affordable units will be constructed. To ensure units retain affordability during the time period of fifty-five years per Government Code Sections 65915 - 65918 as may be amended from time to time.
Attachment B - Residential Density Ordinance
page 6 of 10
17.43.050 Development incentives.
The city may provide a density bonus and an additional incentive, for qualified housing developments, upon the written request of a developer.
The development incentives granted for affordable housing shall contribute significantly to the economic feasibility of providing the affordable units. Applicants seeking a waiver or modification of development or zoning standards shall show that such waivers or physical modifications are necessary to make the housing development ecoRomically feasible in accordance with Government Code Section 65915(e). This requirement may be satisfied by reference to applicable sections of the city's general plan.

I SUBJECT
Zoning Text Amendment (ZA) 2 5-03 to Amend Title 17 - Zoning Ordinance of the City of Anderson to update Chapters 17.14 - Rural Estate, 17.15 - Mixed Use, 17.16 - Agriculture, and 17 .30 - Natural Resource District.
I RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the CEQA determination and adopt Ordinance No 868 amending Chapters
17.14, 17.15, 17.16 and 17.30 of the Anderson Municipal Code regarding the Residential by-right as introduced on February 3, 2026 (first reading).
I FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact.
I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
In May 2025, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) requested that the City provide additional information to demonstrate compliance with state housing law, including Program HE 3.1, to remove unnecessary constraints to the availability of housing for all segments of the population. To address this requirement, City staff have prepared amendments to Rural Estate (R-E), Mixed Use (MU), Agriculture (AG), and Natural Resource (NR) to align with current State Law. The updated ordinances align with state housing law by including transitional and supportive housing as permitted ITEM 6.8c PAGE1 2/17/2026
residential uses, consistent with Senate Bill 2 (SB 2) and its amendments to Government Code Sections 65582-65589.5. The ordinances also update local provisions for farmworker and employee housing to allow up to 12 units or 36 beds without discretionary review, consistent with Health and Safety Code Section 17021.6.
The current version of AMC Section 17.30 - Natural Resource was codified in 1987 with Ordinance 515, AMC Section 17.15 - Mixed Use was codified in 2009 with Ordinance 757, and AMC Sections 17.14- Rural Estate and 17.16-Agriculture were codified in 2011 with Ordinance 711. During the review and update of the 6th Cycle Housing Element 2019-2028, a determination was made that AMC Sections 17.14, 17.15, 17.16, and 17.30 were not fully consistent with current state housing laws. The proposed Zone Amendment (ZA 25-03) updates the AMC Sections 17.14, 17.15, 17.16, and 17.30 to ensure compliance with SB 2 and AB 2162 requirements for transitional and supportive housing.
Key Aspects of SB 2:
• Increases opportunities for transitional and supportive housing by requiring local jurisdictions to allow such housing by right in all zoning districts that permit residential uses.
• Ensures fair access to housing for individuals and families in need of supportive services by removing zoning and permitting barriers that previously restricted these uses.
Key Aspects of AB 2162
• Builds on SB 2 by further clarifying that supportive and transitional housing must be treated as a residential use and allowed by right in zones where multi-family housing is permitted, consistent with Government Code Sections 65650-65656. • Establishes a ministerial approval process for qualifying supportive housing developments, prohibiting cities and counties from imposing additional requirements, standards, or procedures beyond those that apply to other residential uses in the same zone.
• Amends Health and Safety Code Section 17021.6 to ensure that transitional and supportive housing are treated as residential uses subject only to objective standards.
Eligibility Requirements for SB 2 and AB 2162 Projects:
• SB 2: The housing type must meet the definition of transitional and supportive housing under Government Code Section 65582. The project must be treated as a residential use and subject to only the same objective development standards that apply to other residential uses in the same zone.
AB 2162: The project must be supportive housing as defined under Government Code Section 65582 and comply with the ministerial approval process under Government Code ITEM 6.8c PAGE2 2/17/2026
Sections 65650-65656. At least 25% of the total units must be restricted to supportive housing for individuals within target populations defined by state law. Projects may include on-site supportive services and can qualify for density bonuses, land donations, or the inclusions of child-care facilities or other supportive amenities, as allowed under state housing laws.
Proposed Amendments To Chapter 17.14 - Rural Estate:
The following list includes a summary of the proposed revisions by subsection for Chapter
17.14. • 17.14.0ZO(G) - Removes the limit on the number of residents for supportive and transitional housing in accordance with Government Code Sections 65650-65656. • 17.14.0ZO(H) - Increases the maximum occupancy for farmworker/employee housing from 6 persons to up to 12 units or 36 beds, as defined in Health and Safety Code Section 17021.6, ensuring that such housing is regulated under the same objective standards as other residential uses.

The following list includes a summary of the proposed revisions by subsection for Chapter
17.15. • 17.15.050 - Amends Table 17-2: Permitted Uses to include Supportive and Transitional Housing as permitted uses in all areas within the Mixed Use District. • 17.15.050(8)(13) - Provides a definition of Supportive Housing consistent with Government Code Section 65582(n), "Housing with no limit on length of stay, that is occupied by the target population, and that is linked to an onsite or offsite service that assists the supportive housing resident in retaining the housing, improving their health status, and maximizing their ability to live and, when possible, work in the community."
17.15.050(8)(14) - Provides a definition of Transitional Housing consistent with Government Code Section 65582(q), "Buildings configured as rental housing developments, but operated under program requirements that require the termination of assistance and recirculating of the assisted unit to another eligible program recipient at a predetermined future point in time that shall be no less than six months from the beginning of the assistance."
Proposed Amendments To Chapter 17.16 - Agriculture:
The following list includes a summary of the proposed revisions by subsection for Chapter
17.16. • 17.16.020(G) - Increases the maximum occupancy for farmworker/employee housing from 6 persons to up to 12 units or 36 beds, as defined in Health and Safety ITEM 6.8c PAGE3 2/17/2026
Code Section 17021.6, ensuring that such housing is regulated under the same objective standards as other residential uses.
• 17.16.020(H) - Updates the zoning code to include supportive and transitional housing as permitted residential uses, consistent with Government Code Sections 65650-65656, which require such uses to be allowed by right subject only to the same objective standards that apply to other residential uses in the same zone. • 17.16.030 - Removes farmworker housing for more than six employees from the list of uses subject to a Use Permit, consistent with Health and Safety Code Section 17021.6, which requires that qualifying farmworker housing be approved ministerially.
Proposed Amendments To Chapter 17.30 - Natural Resource:
The following list includes a summary of the proposed revisions by subsection for Chapter
17.30. • 17.30.020(F) - Increases the maximum occupancy for farmworker/employee housing from 6 persons to up to 12 units or 36 beds, as defined in Health and Safety Code Section 17021.6, ensuring that such housing is regulated under the same objective standards as other residential uses.
• 17.30.020(G) - Updates the zoning code to include supportive and transitional housing as permitted residential uses, consistent with Government Code Sections 65650- 65656, which require such uses to be allowed by right subject only to the same objective standards that apply to other residential uses in the same zone.
At its November 17th, 2025, meeting, after careful consideration and review, the Planning Commission approved and adopted P.C. Resolution No. 25-08.
Environmental Determination:
The City of Anderson finds that this Ordinance update is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21080.085, which exempts CEQA review for zoning ordinance amendments that implement programs contained within an approved Housing Element.

These allowed use regulations are unique to Chapter 17 and are intended to implement the vision of the Anderson General Plan.
Areas within the Downtown area that are zoned C-1 are subject to the applicable regulations in the Zoning Code related to that zoning district. Buildings constructed within Downtown are encouraged to comply with building placement and design standards set forth for the Mixed Use District.
A. Permitted Uses. The following table (Table 17-2) identifies the permitted uses within the Downtown. These allowed use regulations are listed by street type, then by District, as applicable. The uses listed are defined in Section 17.050.B (Definitions of Permitted Uses).

!February 17, 2026 City Council Meetin~
Lisa Lozier, Senior Planner
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Anderson City Council Through: Joey Forseth~Deshais, City Manager
From: Lisa Lozier, Senior Planner
Date: February 17, 2026
!SUBJECT
Zone Amendment (ZA) 25-04 to update Chapter 17.02 - General Provisions as required by Housing Element Program HE 3.2: Continue to Expedite Applicants for Residential Development
I RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Ordinance No 869 amending Chapter 17.02 of the Anderson Municipal Code regarding Continue to Expedite Applications for Residential Development as introduced on February 3, 2026 (first reading).
I FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact.
I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
In May 2025, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) requested that the City of Anderson provide additional information to demonstrate compliance with state housing law, including Housing Element Program HE 3.2 (Continue to Expedite Applicants for Residential Development). To address this requirement, City staff have prepared amendments to Section 17.02 to bring it into alignment with current State Law, Government Code Section 65913.4.
ITEM 6.8d PAGE1 2/17/2026
California Senate Bill 35 (SB 35) establishes a streamlined, ministerial approval process for qualifying housing developments through Government Code Section 65913.4. Under SB 35, projects that meet specified criteria must be processed ministerially and are not subject to conditional use permits or other discretionary reviews. The City's review is limited to applying objective zoning, design, and subdivision standards that are in effect at the time a complete Notice of Compliance is submitted.
The current version of Anderson Municipal Code (AMC) Section 17.02 - General Provisions was codified in 1987 through Ordinance No. 515. During the review and update of the 6th Cycle Housing Element (2019-2028), the City determined it was appropriate to amend AMC Section 17.02 to encourage pre-application meetings to expedite permit processing for housing development and to incorporate provisions reflecting SB 35. Zone Amendment (ZA 25-04) proposes to update AMC Section 17.02 to align with the requirements of California Government Code§ 65913.4.
Key Aspects of SB 3 5 Streamlined Ministerial Approval Process:
• Streamlined Ministerial Approval: Project meeting SB 35 criteria are processed ministerially, meaning they do not require discretionary permitting approvals such as conditional use permits or design review hearings.
• The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA): CEQA does not apply to SB 35 projects.
• Objective Standards Still Apply: The City can still check proposed SB 35 projects for compliance with the City's objective standards.
• Processing Times: The City must determine whether a project is eligible for SB 35 within 60 days for projects of 150 units or fewer, and 90 days for projects of more than 150 units. Once a project is deemed eligible, the City must complete its ministerial review within 90 days of application submittal for projects of 150 units or fewer, and within 180 days for projects of more than 150 units.
To be eligible for an SB 35, a project must comply with the following requirements:
• Minimum Affordable Units: At least 50% of the total units must be restricted for low- or very low-income housing for a period of no less than 55 years. • Urban Infill: The property must be in an urban area ( services already available), with 75% of the site's perimeter already developed.
• Minimum Units: At least two residential units must be proposed. • Designated Residential Use: The City's current general plan and zoning designation must allow residential or residential mixed-use with at least two-thirds of the proposed development footprint designated for residential use.
ITEM 6.8d PAGE2 2/17/2026
• Location: The development cannot be located on property within any of the following areas:
o Very or very high fire hazard severity zone;
o Delineated earthquake fault zone;
o Habitat for protected species or wetlands;
o Farmland (prime/statewide significance);
o Under a conservation easement;
o Flood plain/floodway; and
o Hazardous waste site.
No Displacement: SB 35 projects cannot demolish or displace existing affordable housing.
Proposed Amendments To Chapter 17.02:
The following list includes a summary of the proposed revisions by subsection for Chapter
17.02. • 17.02.155: Describes the purpose of pre-application meetings for proposed development and specifies that the City will promptly schedule meetings upon request to help expedite the processing of development projects. • 17.02.160: This new section provides that housing projects eligible for SB 35 may receive an Administrative Use Permit if they comply with the City's objective zoning, subdivision, and design standards. It sets the legally required review timelines to ensure projects are processed efficiently and, if the City does not respond in time, projects are deemed approved. In all cases, California Government Code §65913.4 prevails over any conflicting local standards.
At its November 17th, 2025, meeting, after careful consideration and review, the Planning Commission approved and adopted P.C. Resolution No. 25-09.
Environmental Determination:
The City of Anderson finds that this Ordinance update is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21080.085, which exempts CEQA review for zoning ordinance amendments that implement programs contained within an approved Housing Element.
PUBLIC NOTICE:
A 20-day public hearing notice of the subject project was published in the RecordSearchlight and in accordance with notice requirements provided in AMC Section
17.54.040 - Zoning Amendments and Government Code Section 65854, requiring a 20-day hearing. The Planning Department received no public comments on the project at the time of this report.

Zone Amendment (ZA) 25-05 to update Chapter 17.15 - Mixed Use as required by Housing Element Program HE 6.2: Homeless Services
I RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the CEQA determination and adopt Ordinance No 870 amending Chapter 17.15 of the Anderson Municipal Code regarding the Homeless Services as introduced February 3, 2026 (first reading).
I FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact.
I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
In May 2025, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) requested that the City of Anderson provide additional information to demonstrate compliance with state housing law, including Housing Element Program HE 6.2 (Homeless Services). To address this requirement, City staff have prepared amendments to Section
17.15 to align it with the current State Housing Law, Government Code Sections 65660- 65666.
ITEM 6.8e PAGE1 2/17/2026
California Assembly Bill 101 (AB 101) establishes Low Barrier Navigation Center development by right in areas zoned for mixed use and nonresidential zones permitting multifamily uses. AB 101 defines Low Barrier Navigation Center as a Housing First, lowbarrier, service-enriched shelter focused on moving people into permanent housing that provides temporary living facilities while case managers connect individuals experiencing homelessness to income, public benefits, health services, shelter, and housing. Under AB 101, projects that meet specified criteria must be processed ministerially and are not subject to conditional use permits or other discretionary reviews.
The current version of the Anderson Municipal Code (AMC) Section 17.15 - Mixed Use was codified in 2009 through Ordinance No. 757. During the review and update of the 6th Cycle Housing Element (2019-2028), the City determined it was appropriate to amend AMC Section 17.15 to allow Low Barrier Navigation Centers by right and to incorporate provisions reflecting AB 101. Zone Amendment (ZA 25-05) proposes to update AMC Section 17.15 to align with the requirements of California Government Code Sections 65660-65666.
Key Aspects of AB 101 Low Barrier Navigation Center development:
• Ministerial Approval: Project meeting AB 101 criteria are processed ministerially, meaning they do not require discretionary permitting approvals such as conditional use permits or design review hearings.
• The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA): CEQA does not apply to an action taken by a public agency to lease, convey, or encumber land owned by a public entity or to facilitate the lease, conveyance, or encumbrance of land owned by a public agency, or to provide financial assistance to, or otherwise approve, a Low Barrier Navigation Center constructed. Additionally, Low Barrier Navigation Center developments, under certain circumstances, would expand the exemption for the ministerial approval of projects under CEQA.
• Objective Standards Still Apply: The City can still check proposed Low Barrier Navigation Center projects for compliance with the City's objective standards. • Processing Times: AB 101 establishes processing timelines to help streamline the review process. Within 30 days of receiving an application for a Low Barrier Navigation Center development, the City shall notify the applicant whether the application is complete. Within 60 days of receiving a completed application, the City shall take action on the application.
To be eligible for a Low Barrier Navigation Center development, a project must comply with the following requirements per California Government Code Section 65662:
• It provides services designed to connect individuals to permanent housing through a services plan that identifies staffing and the types of services offered.
ITEM 6.8e PAGE2 2/17/2026
• It is linked to a coordinated entry system, allowing staff at the facility or staff collocated there to conduct assessments and connect participants to permanent housing. For purposes of this requirement, a coordinated entry system is a centralized or coordinated assessment system and related procedures that manage participant intake, assessment, and referrals.
• It complies with Chapter 6.5 ( commencing with Section 8255) of Division 8 of the Welfare and Institutions Code.
It maintains a system for recording information on client stays, demographics, income, and exit destinations through the local Homeless Management Information System.
Proposed Amendments To Chapter 17.15:
The following list summarizes the proposed revisions by subsection for Chapter 17.15. • 17.15.050 • Amends Table 17-2: Permitted Uses to include Low Barrier Navigation Center as permitted uses in all areas within the Mixed-Use District. • 17.15.050(B)(9) - Provides a definition of Navigation Centers consistent with Government Code Section 65660, "'Low Barrier Navigation Center' means a Housing First, low-barrier, service-enriched shelter focused on moving people into permanent housing that provides temporary living facilities while case managers connect individuals experiencing homelessness to income, public benefits, health services, shelter, and housing. A Low Barrier Navigation Center may be noncongregate and relocatable." • 17.15.080 - This new section provides definitions, requirements, and application procedures for Low Barrier Navigation Centers consistent with Government Code Sections 65660-65666.
At its December 15th, 2025, meeting, after careful consideration and review, the Planning Commission approved and adopted P.C. Resolution No. 25-11.
Environmental Determination:
The City of Anderson finds that this Ordinance update is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21080.085, which exempts CEQA review for zoning ordinance amendments that implement programs contained within an approved Housing Element.
PUBLIC NOTICE:

California Building Standards Code
I RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Ordinance No 871 revising the Anderson Municipal Code Chapter 15 and adopting by reference the 2025 Edition of the California Building Standards Code as introduced on February 3, 2026 {first reading).
I FISCAL IMPACT
The adoption of the 2025 California Building Codes will have no fiscal impact.
I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
In January 2026, the State Building Standards Commission adopted the 2025 California Building Standards Code (CBSC) with State amendments. It was published in July 2025 and became effective throughout the State in January 2026.
Building Codes are typically updated every three years and adopted by the State with amendments. The State mandates through the Health and Safety Code that the CBSC be enforced by local jurisdictions. Local jurisdictions may not adopt lesser construction standards than those ITEM 6.10 PAGE1 2/17/2026
mandated by the State; however, they may adopt more stringent standards when based on findings of fact for climatic, geographical, or topographical reasons.
The three-year cycle is now complete, and the California Building Standards Commission has revised and published the 2025 California Building Standards Code. Jurisdictions throughout the state are required to adopt the 2025 CBSC.
Although the 2025 CBSC will entail many changes in the way buildings and structures are constructed, staff does not recommend additional modifications to the code.

Cost Recovery Policy for Anderson Parks and Recreation Programs !RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Receive a Staff Report;
2. Receive Public Comment;
3. Provide direction for changes to the Recreation Cost Recovery Policy or adopt the policy in its current form.
I FISCAL IMPACT
Adoption of the Cost Recovery Policy is expected to improve cost recovery for Parks and Recreation programs over time while maintaining affordability and access for the community. The policy establishes an overall cost recovery target of 50% for recreation programs, with adjusted targets for specific services such as aquatics. Updated program fees associated with this policy will increase revenue to better offset direct program costs and partially reduce reliance on the General Fund. Some programs and community events will continue to operate below cost recovery or at no cost where significant public benefit is provided.
ITEM 8.3 PAGE1 2/17/2026
I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
The Parks and Recreation Department provides a wide range of programs, classes, events, and amenities that serve community needs. Rising personnel costs, materials, and operational expenses, combined with fluctuating participation levels, make it increasingly important to evaluate how programs are funded and priced.
The proposed Cost Recovery Policy establishes clear targets and expectations for how recreation programs should balance user fees with public subsidy. Rather than requiring each individual program to meet a fixed recovery rate, the policy sets an overall departmental target, allowing flexibility to price programs based on market conditions, community need, and accessibility.
Key elements of the policy include:
• Establishing a 50% overall cost recovery target for recreation programs based on direct costs.
• Applying a standardized 15% administrative fee to partially offset overhead costs. • Recognizing free and community-wide events as exempt from cost recovery expectations.
• Allowing flexibility for new and pilot programs to operate below target during initial offerings.
• Establishing lower cost recovery goals for aquatics due to public safety, accessibility, and community benefit.
• Providing guidance for contract classes, vendor fees, and special programs such as the Community Bench Program.
The policy also formalizes an evaluation process to review program performance annually and provides staff with direction on when fee adjustments, program modifications, or discontinuation should be considered.
Historically, Parks and Recreation program fees have been adjusted on a case-by-case basis without a formally adopted cost recovery framework. Changes in wages, operational costs, and participation trends have made it increasingly difficult to maintain consistency and transparency in how fees are established.
The Cost Recovery Policy was developed to:
• Create a clear, equitable approach to setting and adjusting recreation fees. • Ensure programs remain financially responsible.
• Provide staff with guidance during annual fee reviews and budget development. • Align recreation funding decisions with the City's broader fiscal goals and community values.
Adopting this policy provides a foundation for consistent decision-making, clearer communication with the public, and long-term sustainability of Parks and Recreation services.

CITY OF ANDERSON
ADMINISTRATIVE POLICY AND PROCEDURE MANUAL
SUBJECT: COST RECOVERY POLICY FOR THE RECREATION DEPARTMENT APPROVED:
NUMBER:
EFFECTIVE DATE:
AUTHORITY:
SUPERSEDES: ALL PREVIOUS WRITTEN AND VERBAL DIRECTION
BACKGROUND
The City of Anderson's Parks and Recreation Department offers a variety of programs and events to the community. Changes in wages and participation rates directly affect the cost of providing these programs. In order to maintain a cost-recovery ratio that is reasonable, and within budgeted funds, flexibility is needed to make adjustments as needed.
PURPOSE
The purpose of this policy is to establish cost recovery targets for services provided by the Anderson Parks and Recreation Department and to define a consistent methodology for calculating cost recovery levels moving forward. These targets provide clear guidance on how programs and services are funded, balancing user fees with public funding to ensure programs remain accessible while supporting long-term financial sustainability. Adoption of this policy will guide staff in evaluating, adjusting, and recommending program and service fees during the annual fee review to ensure consistency with the City's adopted cost recovery targets.
POLICY
It is the policy of the Anderson Parks and Recreation Department that:
Recreation class and program fees shall be established to target an overall cost recovery rate of 50% of direct costs across all recreation programs.
Recreation Cost Recovery Policy Pagel of 4
Direct costs are defined as materials, supplies, and part-time personnel costs required to conduct the specific class, program or event. Department personnel, overhead costs, and facilities are not included.
1) Program pricing shall consider market rates, community affordability, and anticipated participation levels. In some cases, market conditions of community need may justify pricing that does not strictly meet the cost recovery target. • Adult Volleyball
• Youth Basketball
• SNAP Basketball
• Summer Camp
• Ice Rink
• Newly established recreation programs
A fifteen percent (15%) administrative fee of programs direct costs shall be charged and included in the program cost to partially offset overhead costs for all programs, except free programs and events identified by this policy.
Free programs and events include the following and are excluded from expected cost recovery rate:
• Easter Egg Hunt
• Special Needs Easter Egg Hunt
• Food Truck or Treat
• Christmas in Anderson Lighted Parade
• Mosquito Serenade Concert Series
2) New programs, pilot programs, and special classes or events shall be established using a structured evaluation process to ensure fiscal responsibility while allowing flexibility for innovation and community responsiveness.
When establishing fees for new programs, staff shall consider the following factors:
• Estimated direct costs, including staffing, materials, supplies, equipment, and contracted services
• Anticipated participation levels and enrollment capacity • Comparable market rates offered by neighboring jurisdictions, private providers, or similar agencies
• Community benefit, accessibility, and alignment with Department goals
• Whether the program is intended as a one-time offering, seasonal program, or ongoing service
Recreation Cost Recovery Policy Page 2 of 4
New programs may be introduced with introductory or pilot pricing, which may result in a cost recovery rate below the Department's standard targets during the initial offering period. This flexibility allows staff to assess demand, refine program delivery, and identify opportunities for operational efficiencies.
Following the completion of the initial season, session, or pilot period, staff shall evaluate the program's performance, including:
• Actual revenues and expenses
• Cost recovery rate achieved
• Participation levels and waitlists
• Community feedback and program outcomes
Based on this evaluation, staff may recommend one or more of the following actions:
• Adjusting fees to better align with established cost recovery targets • Modifying program structure, staffing, or materials to improve efficiency
• Continuing the program with revised pricing
• Discontinuing the program if it is not financially or operationally sustainable
Unless otherwise approved by the City Manager, ongoing new programs shall be adjusted over time to align as closely as practicable with the Department's established cost recovery targets.
3) The Anderson Parks and Recreation Department Aquatics program provides a substantial community-wide benefit including drowning prevention, public safety education and promotion of lifelong fitness.
As a result, the program is not intended to operate on a full cost recovery basis.
Given the high fixed and variable costs of aquatics operations, the Anderson Parks and Recreation Department establishes a cost recovery goal of 25% for the swim program. The level of cost recovery reflects the City's commitment to prioritizing safety, accessibility, and community well-being over revenue generation.
4) The Anderson Synthetic Ice Rink is a seasonal recreational amenity that provides significant community benefit, including family-oriented activities, seasonal activation of public space, and access to a unique recreational experience that would otherwise require travel outside the region. Due to the high cost of operating and low market tolerance for high skating fees, City's intent to provide a seasonal amenity that prioritizes participation, community enjoyment, and downtown Anderson activation rather than full cost recovery.
Recreation Cost Recovery Policy Page 3 of 4
5) Contract classes shall operate under a revenue-sharing model in which registration fee revenue is allocated on a 70/30 basis, with 70% paid to the contracted instructor and 30% retained by the City.
6) Food vendor fees shall be established based on market rates for comparable events, locations, and services. Fees are intended to reflect typical costs associated with vendor participation and are designed to be competitive. Market rates may be based on factors including, but not limited to, event size and duration, anticipated attendance, vendor demand, location, and the scope of services provided. Fees may be adjusted periodically to remain consistent with current market conditions.
7) The Community Bench Program is structured as a deposit-based program and is not intended to generate revenue for the City. All funds collected through this program shall be deposited into a designated account and used exclusively for the purchase, installation, and ongoing maintenance of the community bench.
The established cost for a Community Bench is $2,400, which reflects 100% cost recovery of all associated expenses, including staff time, materials, installation, and maintenance fees. No portion of the fee is intended to subsidize other City programs or operations. The Community Bench Program fee shall be reviewed annually to ensure continued full cost recovery and alignment with actual expenses. Any adjustments to the fee shall require approval by the City Manager.
PROCEDURE
The Recreation Department shall regularly monitor program revenues and expenses and conduct an annual evaluation of the fee schedule and cost recovery performance.
Based on this evaluation, staff may recommend fee adjustments or revised recovery targets as appropriate. All fees and proposed changes shall be reviewed and approved annually by the City Manager.

Also, following this ordinance, the City Manager appointed the Auditor-Controller for Shasta County, as the third member of the Audit Committee to serve as the outside member of the Audit Committee with expertise in public accounting and finance. Nolda Short, the Auditor-Controller, attended the Audit Committee meeting. Also, attending the Audit Committee meeting this year were TPG Associate Manager Mark Hu, the Finance Director, and the Accountant. The audit committee met on February 9, 2026.
The items discussed were the City's financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2025, and the accompanying management discussion and analysis. 2024-202 5 Hi&}tli&}tts
The Finance Director would like to take this opportunity to briefly review the highlights of the Annual Report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, with the City Council. A public review copy of the Annual Report is also available in the City Clerk's Office.
Highlights of the 2024-2025 Annual Report include:
• Clean Audit Opinion. Independent auditing firm, The Pun Group, audited the City's financial statements for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025. TPG provided the City with an unqualified audit opinion letter, indicating that the financial statements fairly reflect the City's financial condition on June 30, 2025. TPG will be attending the Council meeting this evening if there are any questions for Mark Hu about the audit services provided.
• General Fund Results. For purposes of financial statement presentation, the General Fund is comprised of the following funds: General, Mosquito Serenade, Teen Center, PEG Fees. General Fund expenditures exceeded General Fund revenues by $388,096, which resulted in a decrease to General Fund Reserves. The year-end General Fund reserve decreased to $1,812,995, of which $268,421 is non-spendable, $337,873 is assigned, and $1.2 million is unassigned. Expressed as a percentage of annual General Fund expenditures of $12,250,700, the unassigned General Fund reserve balance stood at 9.9% on June 30, 2025, below the Council goal of 20% to 25% of expenditures. • This decrease in General Fund reserves is largely due to decreases in Transient Occupancy Tax, licensing and permits, and charges for services in addition to the inflationary costs of equipment, services, and utilities. However, this decrease is 18%, or $1.8 million less than the 2023/2024 decrease to the reserve balance of $2,183,757.
ITEM 8.5a PAGE 2 2/17 /26
■ Overall, Sales Tax revenues increased from the 2024-2025 fiscal year by 7%, Transient Occupancy Tax decreased by 3.6% in 2024-2025, and Property Tax revenue increased by 8.9% in 2024-2025. Assessed property values increased by about 4.5% as well in 2024-2025.
■ Gas Tax Fund Results. Gas Tax Fund expenditures exceeded Gas Tax Fund revenues net transfers by $527,311 in fiscal year 2024-2025. The year-end Gas Tax Fund balance decreased to $691,098.
■ Former Anderson Redevelopment Agency Funds. The Anderson Redevelopment Agency (ARA) was dissolved as of January 31, 2012, per AB lX 26. For more information and details, please see Note 12 of the Financial Statements. ■ Proprietary Funds Results. Proprietary funds experienced a change in net position before contributions and transfers as follows:
Water Fund
Sewer Fund
Internal Service Funds
$(79,954) Total Net Position $3,955,839
$(1,036,473) Total Net Position $3,907,913
$ (38,473) Total Net Position $(2,200,182)
Due to the new GASB 101 standard implemented and retroactively booked back to 2023/2024, the Internal Services funds took a large hit; therefore, causing the net position to decrease instead of the efforts to bring these funds to a net zero plus 5% reserve when possible.
• GASB 68. The City is reporting a Net Pension Liability of $16,919,510. This is a decrease of $7,035 from the prior year. To gain perspective on this liability, the City of Anderson reports a Net Position of $37,561,886; the Miscellaneous Group reported a Net Pension Liability of $10,283,875, and the Safety Group reported $6,635,635. The City also reported a pension expense of $3,105,564. TPG will provide additional details on the reporting of the Net Pension Liability or GASB 68. Please see Note 8 in the financial statement for more information regarding pension reporting. • GASB 87. In the fiscal year 2021-2022, the City implemented GASB Statement 87, Leases. GASB 87 requires financial reporting of certain lease assets and liabilities. For information on GASB 87 see Note 6.
• GASB 96. In the fiscal year 2023-2024, the City implemented GASB Statement 96, Subscription-Based Information Technology Arrangements (SBITA). GASB 96 requires financial reporting of certain SBITAs for government end users. For information on GASB 96 see Note 6.
• GASB 91, 94, & 99. These GASB standards implemented in the fiscal year 2022-2023 were to report Conduit Debt Obligations, Public-Private and Private-Public Partnerships, and Availability Payment Arrangements, and Omnibus 2022, respectively.
These four standards are discussed further in Note 1 Section V., as well as Notes 5 & 6.
ITEM 8.Sa PAGE3 2/17/26
• GASB 101. Implemented in 2024-2025, this new liability covers compensated absences in terms of sick leave liability. Although the city does not pay out this leave balance upon separation, the standard was put into place to recognize and measure the liability of compensated absences of employees while employed.
• Recommendations in Management Letters. In the fiscal year 2024-2025 audit, TPG found multiple funds with a deficit in fund balances and net position. Recommendations were to reevaluate the internal service funds cost drivers, increase budgetary controls, and continue to evaluate the City's cash position. The City's responses to these matters can be found in the GAS AU-C 265 Letter: attachment 2 of this staff report.
Thanks and Appreciation
The Finance Director would like to take this opportunity to thank The Pun Group audit personnel and the employees of the Finance Department for their work in the preparation of the financial statements, in addition to planning and performing the annual audit. The Finance Director would also like to thank Mayor Gallier, Vice Mayor Simmons, City Manager Forseth•Deshais, and Auditor-Controller Nolda Short for their valuable contributions to the Audit Committee.

Annual Comprehensive Financial Report
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
(This page is intentionally left blank)
i
February 13, 2026
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City
Council and Citizens of the City of Anderson
(“City):
State law requires that all general-purpose local
governments publish a complete set of financial
statements presented in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America (GAAP) and audited
in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards by a firm of licensed certified public
accountants. Pursuant to that requirement, we
hereby issue for the City the Annual
Comprehensive Financial Report for the fiscal
year ended June 30, 2025.
This report consists of management’s
representations concerning the finances of the
City. Consequently, management assumes full
responsibility for the completeness and
reliability of all of the information presented in
this report. To provide a reasonable basis for
making these representations, management of
the City has established a comprehensive
internal control framework that is designed both
to protect the government’s assets from loss,
theft, or misuse and to compile sufficient
reliable information for the preparation of the
City’s financial statements in conformity with
GAAP. Because the cost of internal controls
should not outweigh their benefits, the City’s
comprehensive framework of internal controls
has been designed to provide reasonable rather
than absolute assurance that the financial
statements will be free from material
misstatement. As management, we assert that,
to the best of our knowledge and belief, this
financial report is complete and reliable in all
material respects.
The City’s financial statements have been
audited by The Pun Group, a firm of licensed
certified public accountants. The goal of the
independent audit was to provide reasonable
assurance that the financial statements of the
City for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, are
free of material misstatement. The independent
audit involved examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements; assessing the
accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management; and evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation. The
independent auditor concluded, based upon the
audit, that there was a reasonable basis for
rendering an unqualified opinion that the City’s
financial statements for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2025, are fairly presented in conformity
with GAAP. The independent auditor’s report is
presented as the first component of the financial
section of this report.
GAAP requires that management provide a
narrative introduction, overview, and analysis to
accompany the basic financial statements in the
form of Management’s Discussion and Analysis
(MD&A). This letter of transmittal is designed
to complement MD&A and should be read in
conjunction with it. The City’s MD&A can be
found immediately following the report of the
independent auditors.
General Information
The City has a population of 10,967 and is
located on the west bank of the Sacramento
River in southern Shasta County. It is ten miles
south of Redding, population 93,534, and twenty
miles north of Red Bluff, population 14,466
Anderson is situated along Interstate 5 and is
150 miles north of Sacramento, the state capital.
The City was incorporated January 16, 1956, as
a general law city and it employs the councilmanager form of government. The governing council is responsible, among other things for
passing ordinances, adopting the budget and
appointing committees. The Council appoints a
ii
City Attorney as legal counsel and a City
Manager who is the administrative head of the
government. The City Manager is responsible
for carrying out the policies and ordinances of
the governing council, for overseeing day-to-day
operations of the government, and for appointing
the heads of the various departments. The
council is elected on a non-partisan basis.
Council members serve four-year staggered
terms, with either two or three council members
elected every two years. The council from its
members selects a Mayor and Vice-mayor.
The City provides a full range of services,
including police, the maintenance of streets and
other infrastructure, recreational activities and
cultural events. The City also provides water
and sewer services to its citizens.
Factors Affecting Financial Condition
The information presented in the financial
statements is perhaps best understood when it is
considered from the broader perspective of the
specific environment within which the City
operates.
Local Economy
Historically, the Anderson local economy has
been primarily influenced by wood and lumberrelated industries. Of the 13 largest manufacturers in 1990, ten were directly
involved in wood products processing and
accounted for 2,000 of the total 2,112
manufacturing-related jobs in the greater
Anderson area. Mill closures culminating in the
2001 closure of the Shasta Paper Company
resulted in the elimination of many of these jobs;
however, numerous jobs have been created in
retail and tourist-related businesses. Also, many
new jobs have been developed in non-timberrelated manufacturing. While timber is still very important and the City continues to actively
promote the unique characteristics of the
community that make it attractive to timber
product industries, the local economy is
increasingly influenced by non-timber-related
businesses.
In 1999, the City annexed 186 acres of
industrially zoned property in the Ox Yoke Road
area with the intention of encouraging the
diversification of manufacturing.
In 2000, the Anderson Redevelopment Agency
formed the Southwest Redevelopment Project
Area. Since that time, the City has actively used
redevelopment funding to make substantial
improvements to the downtown area, facilitate
private development through land acquisition
and sale, and construction of infrastructure
improvements. In 2011, the California Supreme
Court upheld AB1X 26 dissolving
Redevelopment Agencies. Note 12 contains
detailed information about Redevelopment
Dissolution.
Supply chain constraints and inflation are
concerns that we will continue monitoring
closely in the next fiscal year. The City is
experiencing a slowdown in single-family home
sales, and new construction projects; however,
for vehicle and equipment sales, fuel stations,
restaurants, and a national equipment rental
chain are holding steady. Several projects are
also being completed in our planning
department, including hotels, manufacturing,
fuel stations, and affordable housing.
Accounting, Budgetary and Loss Control
Fund Accounting
The City’s accounting system is organized and
operated on a “fund basis.” A fund is defined as
a fiscal accounting entity with a self-balancing
set of accounts. Individual funds are used for
the purpose of carrying on specific activities or
attaining certain objectives. The accounting
system has been developed to make it possible
to present fairly and with full disclosure the
financial position and results of financial
operations of each fund. Additional information
about the City’s use of fund accounting is in
Note 1 to the financial statement.
iii
Internal Control
The City’s general policies and procedures are
designed to reasonably safeguard its assets,
check the reliability of its accounting data and
promote operational efficiency. We believe that
the city’s internal accounting controls
adequately safeguard assets and provide
reasonable assurance of proper recording of all
financial transactions.
Budgetary Control
In June of odd numbered years, the City Council
considers and adopts a budget plan for the
coming two fiscal years. In June of each fiscal
year, appropriations are adopted for the
upcoming fiscal year for each fund and for
departmental units within each fund. Budgetary
control is maintained at the fund level; the City
Manager may transfer appropriations between
accounts in each fund. However, any revision
that alters the total expenditure level of a fund
must be approved by the City Council.
Additional information about the City’s budget
policies can be found in notes to the budgetary
comparison schedule in the required
supplementary information.
Cash Management
The City follows the practice of pooling
temporarily idle cash during the year. Monies
not required for immediate expenditure are
invested in accordance with State law and the
City’s formal investment policy. These monies
were invested in demand deposits, U.S.
Government securities, and the Local Agency
Investment fund. Notes 1 and 2 to the financial
statements contain additional information.
Fiduciary Operations
The City maintains a number of fiduciary funds,
which contain assets held in trust for other
agencies.
Capital Assets
The general capital assets of the City are those
fixed assets used in the performance of general
governmental functions and exclude the capital
assets of Enterprise fund. As of June 30, 2025,
the City’s capital assets, including both
governmental and business-type, amounted to
$38,176,260. Note 5 to the financial statements
contain additional information about capital
assets.
Debt Obligations
The City uses lease-purchase financing and
certificates of participation, as well as traditional
debt instruments, when deemed appropriate.
The City has neither outstanding general
obligation bonds nor authorized but unused
general obligations bonds at this time. A
complete description of all outstanding debts can
be found in note 6 to the financial statements.
Risk Management
The City is a member of the Northern California
Cities Self-Insurance Fund, a Joint Powers
Authority providing its member cities a shared
risk plan for worker’s compensation and liability
insurance. The City’s Workers’ Compensation
Program comprises a banking or deductible
layer for claims up to $100,000 and a shared risk
pool for claims from $100,000 to $500,000.
Excess coverage is provided for claims over the
shared risk layer up to the statutory limit. The
Liability Program comprises a banking or
deductible layer for claims up to $50,000, and a
shared risk pool for claims from $50,000 to
$750,000. Excess coverage is provided for
claims over the shared risk layer up to
$40,000,000. A complete discussion of the
City’s worker’s compensation and liability
insurance programs is in note 7 to the financial
statements.
Pension Benefits
The City contributes to the California Public
Employees Retirement System (CalPERS), a
cost-sharing multiple-employer public employee
defined benefit pension plan. PERS provides
retirement and disability benefits, annual costof-living adjustments and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. A complete
discussion of the City’s retirement plan is in
note 8 to the financial statements.
iv
Acknowledgements
The City's fiscal condition remains strong. This
is not achieved without the commitment and
leadership of the City Council and City
Manager, as well as the cooperation of all
department heads and employees. I would
especially like to thank the entire staff of the
Finance Department for their dedication to
processing the daily fiscal transactions of the
City in an efficient manner. Without their hard
work and dedication, this Annual
Comprehensive Financial Report would not be
possible.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Honorable Mayor and the Members of the City Council of the City of Anderson
Anderson, California
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Anderson, California (the “City”), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2025, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City, as of June 30, 2025, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAS”) and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States (“Government Auditing Standards”). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City, and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.
Emphasis of Matter
As discussed in Notes 1 and 14 to the financial statements, the City adopted new accounting principle, GASB Statement No. 101, Compensated Absences during the year ended June 30, 2025. The adoption of this standard resulted in the restatement of the City’s net position as of June 30, 2024. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

ORANGE COUNTY • SAN DIEGO • SACRAMENTO • WALNUT CREEK • LAS VEGAS • PHOENIX 000 To the Honorable Mayor and the Members of the City Council of the City of Anderson
Anderson, California
2 In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months beyond the financial statement date, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinions.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements. conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management’s Discussion and Analysis, Budgetary Comparison Schedules, the Schedule of City’s Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability and Related Ratios and the Schedules of Contributions – Pensions be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with GAAS, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
To the Honorable Mayor and the Members of the City Council of the City of Anderson
Anderson, California
3 Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements. The Combining and Individual Fund Financial Statements are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with GAAS. In our opinion, the Combining and Individual Fund Financial Statements are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information included in the annual report. The other information comprises the introductory and statistical sections but does not include the basic financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinions on the basic financial statements do not cover the other information, and we do not express an opinion or any form of assurance thereon.
In connection with our audit of the basic financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and consider whether a material inconsistency exists between the other information and the basic financial statements, or the other information otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work performed, we conclude that an uncorrected material misstatement of the other information exists, we are required to describe it in our report.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated February 13, 2026, on our consideration of the City’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

7 INTRODUCTION
This section of the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report provides a narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City of Anderson (the “City”) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. This should be read in conjunction with the transmittal letter and the financial statements.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The assets and deferred outflows of resources of the City exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources on June 30, 2025, by $37.97 million (net position). Due to the implementation of GASB 68, net pension liabilities are reported on the financial statements. Reporting of the City’s net pension liability of $16.92 million resulted in an unrestricted net deficit of $12 million in Governmental Activities. Total net position decreased by $3.00 million, with a decrease of $1.89 million in net assets of governmental activities, and a decrease of $1.11 million in business-type activities. Governmental funds reported combined June 30, 2025, fund balances of $16.36 million, a decrease of $ 2.38 million in comparison to the previous fiscal year. These fund balances are largely reserved for various purposes. As of June 30, 2025, the General Fund had a year-end unassigned fund balance of $1.21 million, a decrease of 33% over the prior year's fund balance of $1.8 million. The decrease is largely due to the continued increase in goods and services during this fiscal year; this trend has begun to slow, and together with cost-saving measures, the decrease at June 30, 2024, was much higher at 51% of the prior year. The unassigned General Fund balance on June 30, 2025, represented 9.9% of 2024-2025 General Fund expenditures of $12.25 million. As of June 30, 2025, the Gas Tax Fund had a year-end restricted fund balance of $0.15 million. The restricted Gas Tax Fund balance at June 30, 2025, represented 8% of 2024-2025 Gas Tax Fund expenditures of $1.81 million. The restricted Gas Tax Fund balance decreased by $0.54 million, from June 30, 2024, to June 30, 2025. This decrease is due to less road construction and maintenance needed to restore the city’s roadways. During the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, the City’s net long-term liabilities increased by $3.40 million with an ending long-term liability balance of $25.13 million (See Note 6).

8 OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The basic financial statements are comprised of three components:
1. Government-wide financial statements,
2. Fund financial statements, and
3. Notes to the financial statements.
This report also includes other supplementary information section that presents required reports on internal controls and compliance with laws and regulations.
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
This set of statements is designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the City’s finances, like a private-sector business.
The Statement of Net Position (Statement 1) presents information on all the City’s assets and liabilities, with the difference reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as an indicator of whether the financial position of the City is improving or declining.
The Statement of Activities (Statement 2) presents information showing how the government’s net position changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods, such as uncollected taxes and earned, but not yet used vacation time.
Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees or are required by grantor agencies to be accounted for in this manner (business-type activities). The governmental activities include general government, public safety, public works, planning, community development, recreation and cultural. The business-type activities of the City are water and sewer.
The government-wide financial statements include not only the City itself (known as the primary government) but also its component units, entities for which the government is considered to be financially responsible. Blended component units, although legally separate entities are in substance, part of the government’s operations and so data from these units are combined with data of the primary government.
On December 29, 2011, the California Supreme Court upheld Assembly Bill 1X 26 dissolving all redevelopment agencies in the State of California. (See Note 13 for detailed information on the reporting of the former Anderson Redevelopment Agency). The City elected to become the Successor Agency to the dissolved Anderson Redevelopment Agency. Information on Successor Agency Funds are reported as a component unit of the City.
FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All the funds of the City can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds.
City of Anderson
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) June 30, 2025
9 Governmental Funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as, on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a government’s near-term financing requirements.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impacts of the government’s near-term decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the government fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.
The City maintains 21 individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances for the General Fund, the Gas Tax Fund, the ADAP and Home Fund, the CDBG Fund, the Low and Mod Income Housing Fund, and the Parks Capital Projects Fund, and all of which are considered major funds. Data from the other governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these non-major governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements elsewhere in this report.
The City adopts annual appropriations for its major governmental funds. As required supplementary statements, budgetary comparison statements have been provided for the General Fund and Major Special Revenue Funds to demonstrate compliance with adopted appropriations. The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 25-32 of this report.
Proprietary Funds. The City maintains enterprise and internal service proprietary funds.
Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions as business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. The City uses enterprise funds to account for its water and sewer enterprises. Both of the City’s enterprise funds are considered major funds.
Internal service funds are an accounting device used to accumulate and allocate costs internally among the City’s various functions. The City uses its Internal Service Fund to account for public works charges to other departments, maintenance of the City’s vehicle fleet, maintenance of the City’s buildings and equipment, maintenance of the City’s computer systems, and charges for workers’ compensation and general liability insurance. Because these services primarily benefit governmental rather than business-type functions, they have been included within governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements.
Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial statements, only in more detail. The City’s Enterprise and Internal Service Fund are shown in detail on pages 33-39 of this report.
Fiduciary Funds. Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the government. Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the government-wide financial statement because the resources of those funds are not available to support the City’s own programs. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is much like that use for proprietary funds. The basic fiduciary fund financial statements can be found on pages 41-44 of this report.
Notes to the Financial Statements. The notes provide additional important information that is essential to the reader for a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements.

10 GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government’s financial position. For the City, assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded liabilities and deferred inflows of resources by $37.97 million on June 30, 2025. Net position decreased by $3.26 million from Fiscal Year 2023-2024.
The City’s net position decreased in both the governmental activities and the business-type activities during the 2024- 2025 fiscal year. Net positions in governmental activities decreased by $2.15 million, and business-type activities decreased by $1.12 million.

The City uses these assets to serve its citizens and businesses; consequently, these assets are not available for spending.
Although the City‘s investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.
Another large portion of the City’s net position, $16.07 million, represents resources subject to external restrictions on how they may be used. Due to the implementation of GASB 68, the City is required to report net pension liability.
Reporting of net pension liability resulted in a ($12.00) million deficit in governmental activities unrestricted net position. Business-type activities reported ($0.67) million in unrestricted net position at year-end.

City of Anderson
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) June 30, 2025
12 Governmental funds. The focus of the City’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City’s financing requirements. In particular, unreserved fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government’s net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.
As of June 30, 2025, the City’s governmental funds reported a combined ending fund balance of $16.36 million.
General Fund. The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the City. In 2024-2025, the City experienced a deficit in General Fund revenues and other financing sources over General Fund expenditures and other financing uses in the amount of $0.39 million. This decreased the year-end General Fund balance to $1.81 million, of which $0.27 million is nonspendable, $0.34 million is assigned, and $1,206,701 is unassigned.
Expressed as a percentage of annual expenditures, the unassigned General Fund balance stood at 9.9% of expenditures on June 30, 2025. The City’s unassigned General Fund balance is below the Council’s target of 20 - 25%.
General Fund revenues. The Bradley-Burns Sales and Use Tax revenues decreased by 8.1% in the 2024-2025 fiscal year from 2023-2024. The Transaction and Use Tax (Measure A) decreased by 12% in 2024-2025. Property tax revenues increased by 9.5%. Assessed property values increased by 4.5% in 2024-2025. Transient occupancy (motel) taxes showed a 81.9% increase in 2024-2025, compared to a 57.3% drop from the 22/23 to the prior fiscal year.
Licenses and permits increased 17.8%, and the category of fines, forfeitures, and penalties decreased by 5.4%.
Intergovernmental revenues also decreased by .04%. Charges for services increased by 62%.
Overall, general fund revenues increased, from $11.51 million in Fiscal Year 2023-2024 to $11.86 million in Fiscal Year 2024-2025, largely due to increases in permitting and property values generating higher property tax revenues.
General Fund expenditures. General Fund expenditures totaled $12.25 million in 2024-2025. This was a decrease of
11.6% compared to 2023-2024 General Fund expenditures of $13.85 million. This decrease is due to consistent efforts in cost-saving measures and overall conservative spending practices.
Proprietary funds. The City’s two enterprise funds provide the same type of information found in the governmentwide financial statements but with more detail. Highlights of the annual activity for these funds have already been provided in the discussion of the business-type activities.
GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS

13 CAPITAL ASSET AND DEBT ADMINISTRATION
Capital assets. The City‘s investment in capital assets for its governmental and business-type activities as of June 30, 2025, amounted to $38.18 million (net of accumulated depreciation and amortization). This investment in capital assets includes land, park improvements, buildings and improvements, vehicles and equipment, streets, bikeways, water, sewer, storm drain systems, and construction in progress. 2025 2024 2025 2024 2025 2024

ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR’S BUDGET AND RATES
Annually, each May, the State Department of Finance releases its January 1 population estimates for all California cities and counties. The State Department of Finance estimated that Anderson’s population was 10,967 as of January 1, 2025, a 0.7 percent decrease from the prior year.
Low spending, slow construction, and inflation continue to be a concern that we will be monitoring closely in next the fiscal year. The building of Single-Family homes has slowed significantly in the City generally due to rising interest rates and national economic pressures. In return this has had a substantial negative impact on the License and Permit fee revenues. Transient Occupancy Tax revenues are also significantly less than projections due to less travelers and one hotel owing 14 quarters of due taxes. However, the City is still experiencing stable revenues in Property Tax, Bradley-Burns Sales and Use Tax.
During the 2025/2026 fiscal year, the city is having a revenue cost study for service fees conducted by an outside agency that will be presented to the City Council for adoption. Any changes to cost of service fees are intended to be implemented by July 1, 2026.
City of Anderson
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) June 30, 2025
14 The City’s Wastewater Division completed a comprehensive rate study in 2024/25 that implemented a rate increase of 65% at July 1, which will reflect in the 2025/26 sewer charges.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
49 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The basic financial statements of the City of Anderson, California, (the “City”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) as applied to governmental agencies. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”) is the accepted standard setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. The following is a summary of the significant policies:
A. Financial Reporting Entity
The City was incorporated January 16, 1956, under the General Laws of the State of California. The City is governed by an elected five-member council.
Blended Component Unit
In evaluating how to define the City for financial reporting purposes, management has considered all potential component units. The primary criteria for including a potential component unit within the reporting entity are the governing body’s financial accountability and a financial benefit or burden relationship and whether it is misleading to exclude. A primary government is financially accountable and shares a financial benefit or burden relationship, if it appoints a voting majority of an organization’s governing body and it is able to impose its will on the organization, or if there is a potential for the organization to provide specific financial benefits to, or impose specific financial burdens on the primary government. A primary government may also be financially accountable if an organization is fiscally dependent on the primary government regardless of whether the organization has a separately elected governing board, a governing board appointed by a higher level of government, or a jointly appointed board, and there is a potential for the organization to provide specific financial benefits to, or impose specific financial burdens on the primary government.
Management determined that the following component unit should be blended based on the criteria above:
Although the following is legally separate from the City, it has been “blended” as though it is part of the City because the component unit’s governing body is substantially the same as the City’s and there is a financial benefit or burden relationship between the City and the component unit; management of the City has operational responsibilities for the component unit; and/or the component unit provides services entirely, or almost entirely, to the City or otherwise exclusively, or almost exclusively, benefits the City, even though it does not provide services directly to it.
Anderson Public Financing Authority - The Anderson Public Financing Authority (the “Authority”) was created primarily to facilitate the financing of public improvements, as well as other facilities and improvements which can be funded through the issuance of tax-exempt bonds. The Authority is authorized, among other things, to issue bonds pursuant to the provisions of the Marks-Roos Local Bond Pooling Act of 1985 for the purpose of financing facilities and improvements. The members of the City Council serves as the governing board of the Authority and there is a financial benefit or burden relationship between them and the Authority. The Authority does not issue separate financial statements.
The City had no discretely presented component units.
City of Anderson
Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
50 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus
The accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for by providing a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues and expenditures or expenses, as appropriate. City resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purposes for which they are to be spent and the means by which spending activities are controlled.
Government-Wide Financial Statements
The Government-Wide Financial Statements are presented on an “economic resources” measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, all of the City’s assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources, including capital assets, as well as infrastructure assets, and long-term liabilities, are included in the accompanying Statement of Net Position. The Statement of Activities presents changes in net position. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the period in which they are earned while expenses are recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred. Fiduciary activities are not included in these statements.
Certain types of transactions are reported as program revenues for the City in three categories:
Charges for services
Operating grants and contributions
Capital grants and contributions
Certain eliminations have been made in regards to interfund activities, payables and receivables. All internal balances in the Statement of Net Position have been eliminated except those representing balances between the governmental activities and the business-type activities, which are presented as internal balances and eliminated in the total primary government column. In the Statement of Activities, internal service fund transactions have been eliminated; however, those transactions between governmental and business-type activities have not been eliminated. The following interfund activities have been eliminated:
Due from and to other funds
Advances to and from other funds
Transfers in and out
Governmental Fund Financial Statements
All governmental funds are accounted for on a spending or “current financial resources” measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, only current assets and current liabilities are included on the Balance Sheet. The Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances present increases (revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (expenditures and other financing uses) in fund balances.
Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which they become both measurable and available to finance expenditures of the current period.
Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both “measurable” and “available”. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For these purposes, the City considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. The primary revenue sources, which have been treated as susceptible to accrual by the City, are property taxes, other local taxes, franchise fees, forfeitures and penalties, motor license fees, rents and concessions, interest revenue, and state and federal grants and subventions. Expenditures are recorded in the accounting period in which the related fund liability is incurred.

51 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus (Continued) Governmental Fund Financial Statements (Continued)
Reconciliations of the fund financial statements to the Government-Wide Financial Statements are provided to explain the differences.
Certain indirect costs are included as part of the program expenses reported for individual functions and activities.
The City reports the following major governmental funds:
General Fund – The General Fund is the City’s primary operating fund and accounts for all financial resources of the general government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund. Gas Tax Special Revenue Fund – The Gas Tax Fund accounts for state funds received for use in providing construction and maintenance of the street system of the City. ADAP and Home Special Revenue Fund – The ADAP and Home Fund accounts for the operating and financing of funds provided by Federal Housing and Urban Development for the rehabilitation and financing of homes through ADAP and Home funding.
CDBG Special Revenue Fund – The CDBG Fund accounts for funds provided by Federal Housing and Urban Development for the rehabilitation of homes and government structures through CDBG funding in addition to accounting for program income from closed grants/loans. Low and Mod Income Housing Special Revenue Fund – The Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund accounts for all activities resulting from the elimination of the Redevelopment Agency’s low and moderate housing function. Primarily, this Fund utilizes program income from loan payments to provide for the development and assistance for low‐income households.
Parks Capital Projects Fund – The Parks Capital Projects Fund for impact fees that are restricted for improvements to the City's parks and grounds.
Proprietary Fund Financial Statements
Proprietary funds are accounted for using the “economic resources” measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, all assets and liabilities (whether current or noncurrent) are included on the Statement of Net Position. The Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position presents increases (revenues) and decreases (expenses) in total net position. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the period in which they are earned while expenses are recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred.
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund’s principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the proprietary funds are charges to customers for sales and services. Operating expenses for the proprietary funds include the costs of sales and services, administrative expenses and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses.
A separate column representing internal service fund is also presented in these statements. However, internal service balances and activities have been combined with the governmental activities and business-type activities in the Government-Wide Financial Statements.

The private purpose trust funds are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the full accrual basis of accounting where the assets associated with the activity are controlled by the City and the assets are not derived 1) solely from the government’s own-source revenues or 2) from government-mandated nonexchange transactions or voluntary nonexchange transactions.
The City reports the following fiduciary fund types:
Private‐purpose Trust Fund – The Private Purpose Trust Fund is a fiduciary fund type used by the City to report trust arrangements under which principal and income benefit other governments. This fund reports the assets, liabilities, and activities of the City of Anderson Redevelopment Agency Successor Agency (the “Successor Agency”).
Custodial Funds – Custodial Funds account for assets held by the City in a purely custodial capacity for individuals, private organizations, and/or other governments. These funds include the Shasta Interagency Narcotics Task Force (SINTF) Fund and the County Seizure Fund.
C. Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Investments
The City’s cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash on hand, demand deposits, and short-term investments with original maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition. All cash and investments of proprietary funds are held in the City's investment pool. These cash pools have the general characteristics of a demand deposit account, therefore, all cash and investments in the proprietary funds are considered cash and cash equivalents for Statement of Cash Flows purposes.
Investments are stated at fair value.

53 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) D. Receivables
Accounts receivable consist of water and sewer billings and other miscellaneous billings. The water and sewer departments record service fees when earned with a corresponding receivable. The City also records receivables for other miscellaneous user fees and charges. Management records an allowance for doubtful accounts for all receivables which they deem uncollectible. Management determined there were no material uncollectible receivables at June 30, 2025.
Loans receivable consist of loans to individuals for housing rehabilitation and to businesses for construction and business loans. Management considers all loans receivable to be collectible.
Taxes receivable consist of various sales and use taxes, property taxes, and special assessments. Management considers all taxes receivable to be collectible.
E. Interfund Transactions
During the course of operations, numerous transactions that constitute reimbursements to a fund for expenditures/expenses initially made from one fund that are properly applicable to another fund, are recorded as expenditures/expenses in the reimbursing fund and as reductions of expenditures/expenses in the fund that is reimbursed. In addition, on a less occasional basis, the City incurs transactions that constitute quasi‐external transactions between funds. These transactions are accounted for as revenues, expenditures, or expenses in the funds involved in these transactions.
All other interfund transactions are reported as transfers.
Fund transfers are necessary to properly account for cash increases/decreases in the appropriate funds. Transfers include, but are not limited to, the following:
To allocate funds for operations;
To allocate funds for equipment replacement;
To allocate funds for capital projects.
These transactions result in short‐term interfund receivables and payables that are classified as “due from other funds” or “due to other funds” and in long‐term interfund receivables and payables that are classified as “advances to other funds” or “advances from other funds” on the balance sheet – governmental funds and statement of net position – proprietary funds. Any residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and business‐ type activities are reported in the government‐wide financial statements as “internal balances.” F. Restricted Assets
Certain proceeds of debt issues, as well as certain reserves set aside for their repayment, are classified as restricted assets on the statement of net position and balance sheets because their use is limited by applicable bond covenants.
G. Inventories and Prepaid Items
Proprietary fund inventories are adjusted to annual physical counts and are valued at cost, which approximates market, utilizing the weighted average method of valuation. The costs of governmental fund‐type inventories are recorded as expenditures when consumed rather than when purchased.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
54 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) G. Inventories and Prepaid Items (Continued)
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items in both the government-wide and fund financial statements by using purchase method.
A nonspendable fund balance has been reported in the governmental funds to show that inventories and prepaid items do not constitute “available spendable resources,” even though they are a component of current assets.
H. Capital Assets
In the Government-Wide Financial Statements, capital assets are recorded at cost where historical records are available and at an estimated original cost where no historical records exist. Donated capital assets are valued at their acquisition value.
Capital assets used in operations are depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method.
The lives used for depreciation purposes are as follows:
Buildings Primarily 25 to 30 years
Improvements Primarily 10 to 30 years
Equipment Primarily 5 to 10 years
Vehicles Primarily 5 to 10 years
Furniture and fixtures Primarily 7 years
It is the policy of the City to capitalize all land, buildings, improvements, equipment, vehicles, furniture, and fixtures, except assets costing less than $5,000. The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the assets or materially extend asset lives are not capitalized. Costs of assets sold or retired (and related amounts of accumulated depreciation) are eliminated from the accounts in the year of sale or retirement and the resulting gain or loss is included in the operating statement of the related fund. Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed.
I. Deferred Outflows and Inflows of Resources
The statement of net position and balance sheet – governmental funds reports separate sections for deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources, when applicable.
Deferred Outflows of Resources represent a consumption of net assets that applies to future periods.
Deferred Inflows of Resources represent an acquisition of net assets that applies to future periods.
J. Interest Payable
In the Government-wide Financial Statements, interest payable on long-term debt is recognized as the liability incurred for governmental activities and business-type activities.
In the Fund Financial Statements, only proprietary fund types recognize the interest payable when the liability is incurred.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
55 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) K. Unearned Revenue and unavailable revenue
Unearned revenue is recognized for transactions for which revenue has not yet been earned. Typical transactions recorded as unearned revenues are prepaid charges for services and grants received but not yet earned.
In the governmental fund financial statements, unavailable revenue is reported when transactions have not yet met the revenue recognition criteria based on the modified accrual basis of accounting. The City reports unavailable revenue when an asset is reported in governmental fund financial statements but the revenue is not available.
L. Compensated Absences
Compensated absences are liabilities for leave attributable to services already rendered that accumulate and are more likely than not to be paid or used. Compensated absences primarily consist of vacation and sick leave. The City’s liability for compensated absences is recorded in governmental or business-type activities, as appropriate.
The liability for compensated absences is recognized as leave is earned, based on the employee’s pay rate in effect at the financial statement date, including any applicable salary-related costs. The liability includes only amount attributable to services already rendered that are more likely than not to be paid or used. Amounts expected to be liquidated with expendable available financial resources are reported as fund liabilities, while the remaining balance is reported as a long-term liability in the Statement of Net Position.
M. Leases
Lessee
The City has a policy to recognize a lease liability and a right-to-use asset (lease asset) in the financial with a lease term greater than one year. Variable payments based on future performance or usage of the underlying assets are not included in the measurement of the lease liability.
At the commencement of a lease, the lease liability is measured at the present value of payments expected to be made during the lease term. Subsequently, the lease liability is reduced by the principal portion of lease payments made.
Lease assets are recorded at the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liabilities and modified by any lease payments made to the lessor at or before the commencement of the lease term, less any lease incentives received from the lessor at or before the commencement of the lease term along with any initial direct costs that are ancillary charges necessary to place the lease assets into service. Lease assets are amortized using the straight–line method over the shorter of the lease term or the useful life of the underlying asset, unless the lease contains a purchase option that the State has determined is reasonably certain of being exercised. In this case, the lease asset is amortized over the useful life of the underlying asset.
Key estimates and judgments related to leases include how the City determines (1) the discount rate it uses to discount the expected lease payments to present value, (2) lease term, and (3) lease payments. The City uses the interest rate charged by the lessor as the discount rate. When the interest rate charged by the lessor is not provided, the City generally uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases.
The lease term includes the noncancelable period of the lease, plus any option periods that are reasonably certain to be exercised.

For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
56 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) M. Leases (Continued)
Lessee (Continued)
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are composed of fixed payments and purchase option price that the City is reasonably certain to exercise. The City monitors changes in circumstances that would require a remeasurement of a lease and will remeasure any lease asset and liability if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the lease liability.
Lease assets are reported as right-to-use along with other capital assets and lease liabilities are reported on the statement of net position.
Lessor
The City is a lessor for leases of buildings and recognizes lease receivables and deferred inflows of resources in the financial statements. Variable payments based on future performance or usage of the underlying asset are not included in the measurement of the lease receivable.
At the commencement of a lease, the lease receivable is measured at the present value of payments expected to be received during the lease term. Subsequently, the lease receivable is reduced by the principal portion of lease payments received. The deferred inflows of resources are initially measured as the initial amount of the lease receivable, adjusted for lease payments received at or before the lease commencement date. Subsequently, the deferred inflows of resources are recognized as revenue over the life of the lease term in a systematic and rational method.
Key estimates and judgments include how the City determines (1) the discount rate it uses to discount the expected lease receipts to present value, (2) lease term, and (3) lease receipts. The City uses the incremental borrowing rate (IBR) provided by the financial institution during implementation for existing leases or the current rate at the time a new lease is executed or modified. The lease term includes the noncancelable period of the lease plus any option periods that are likely to be exercised.
Lease receipts included in the measurement of the lease receivable is composed of fixed payments from the lessee.
The City monitors changes in circumstances that would require a remeasurement of its lease and will remeasure the lease receivable and deferred inflows of resources if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the lease receivable.
N. Subscription Based Information Technology Arrangements (SBITAs) The City recognizes subscription liabilities with a subscription term greater than one year in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements. Variable payments based on future performance of the City, usage of the underlying IT assets, or number of user seats are not included in the measurement of the subscription liability.
At the commencement of a subscription, the City initially measures the subscription liability at the present value of subscription payments expected to be made during the subscription term. Subsequently, the lease liability is reduced by the principal portion of subscription payments made. The subscription asset is initially measured as the initial amount of the subscription liability, adjusted for subscription payments made at or before the subscription commencement date, plus certain initial direct costs. Subsequently, the subscription asset is amortized on a straightline basis over its useful life.

57 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) N. Subscription Based Information Technology Arrangements (SBITAs) (Continued) Key estimates and judgments related to subscription liabilities include how the City determines (1) the discount rate it uses to discount the expected subscription payments to present value, (2) subscription term, and (3) subscription payments.
The City uses the interest rate charged by the SBITA vendor as the discount rate. When the interest rate charged by the lessor is not provided, the City generally uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for subscription liabilities.
The subscription term includes the noncancellable period of the SBITA. Subscription payments included in the measurement of the subscription liability are composed of fixed payments.
The City monitors changes in circumstances that would require a remeasurement of its SBITA and will remeasure any subscription asset or liability if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the subscription liability.
O. Pensions
For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the plans and additions to/deductions from the plans’ fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the plans. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value.
The following timeframes are used for pension reporting:
Valuation Date June 30, 2023
Measurement Date June 30, 2024
Measurement Period July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024
Gains and losses related to changes in total pension liability and fiduciary net position are recognized in pension expense systematically over time. The first amortized amounts are recognized in pension expense for the year the gain or loss occurs. The remaining amounts are categorized as deferred outflows and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions and are to be recognized in future pension expense. The amortization period differs depending on the source of the gain or loss. The difference between projected and actual earnings is amortized straight-line over 5 years. All other amounts are amortized straight-line over the average expected remaining service lives of all members that are provided with benefits (active, inactive, and retired) as of the beginning of the measurement period.
P. Long-Term Debt
In the Government-Wide Financial Statements and Proprietary Fund Financial Statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the appropriate activities. Bond premium and discounts are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the effective interest method. Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable bond premium or discount. Bond issuance costs are expensed when incurred.
The governmental fund financial statements do not present long-term liabilities. Consequently, long-term debt is shown as a reconciling item in the Reconciliation of the Governmental Funds Balance Sheet to the GovernmentWide Statement of Net Position.

58 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Q. Property Taxes
Under California law, property taxes are assessed and collected by the counties for up to 1% of assessed property value, plus other increases approved by the voters. Property taxes collected are pooled and then allocated to the cities based on complex formulas. The following are key dates pertaining to property taxes:
Lien Date January 1
Levy Date June 30
Due Dates November 1 and February 1
Collection Dates December 10 and April 10
R. Net Position and Fund Balances
In the Government-Wide Financial Statements and proprietary fund financial statements, net position is classified as follows:
Net Investment in Capital Assets – This component of net position consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, reduced by the outstanding balances of retention payable and debt that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets.
Restricted – This component of net position consists of restricted assets reduced by liabilities and deferred inflows of resources related to those assets.
Unrestricted – This component of net position is the amount of the assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources that are not included in the determination of net investment in capital assets or the restricted component of net position.
When expenses are incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted components of net position are available, the City’s policy is to apply the restricted component of net position first, then the unrestricted component of net position as needed.
In the Governmental Fund Financial Statements, fund balances are classified as follows:
Nonspendable – Nonspendable fund balances are items that cannot be spent because they are not in spendable form, such as prepaid items and inventories, or items that are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact, such as principal of an endowment or revolving loan funds.
Restricted – Restricted fund balances encompass the portion of net fund resources subject to externally enforceable legal restrictions. This includes externally imposed restrictions by creditors, such as through debt covenants, grantors, contributors, laws or regulations of other governments, as well as restrictions imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
Committed – Committed fund balances encompass the portion of net fund resources, the use of which is constrained by limitations that the government imposes upon itself at its highest level of decision making, normally the governing body, and that remain binding unless removed in the same manner. The City Council is considered the highest authority for the City. Adoption of a resolution by the City Council is required to commit resources or to rescind the commitment.
City of Anderson
Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
59 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) R. Net Position and Fund Balances (Continued)
Assigned – Assigned fund balances encompass the portion of net fund resources reflecting the government’s intended use of resources. Assignment of resources can be done by the highest level of decision making or by a committee or official designated for that purpose. The City Council has authorized by resolution the City Manager or the City Fiscal Officer for that purpose.
Unassigned – This amount is for any portion of the fund balances that do not fall into one of the above categories. The General Fund is the only fund that reports a positive unassigned fund balance amount. In other governmental funds, it is not appropriate to report a positive unassigned fund balance amount. However, in governmental funds other than General Fund, if expenditures incurred for specific purposes exceed the amounts that are restricted, committed or assigned to those purposes, it may be necessary to report a negative unassigned fund balance in that fund.
The City Council establishes (and modifies or rescinds) fund balance commitments by passage of an ordinance or resolution. This is typically done through adoption and amendment of the budget. A fund balance commitment is further indicated in the budget document as a designation or commitment of the fund (such as for special incentives).
Assigned fund balance is established by the City Council through adoption or amendment of the budget as intended for specific purpose (such as the purchase of fixed assets, construction, debt service, or for other purposes).
When an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted resources are available, the City considers restricted funds to have been spent first. When an expenditure is incurred for which committed, assigned, or unassigned fund balances are available, the City considers amounts to have been spent first out of committed funds, then assigned funds, and finally unassigned funds, as needed, unless the City Council has provided otherwise in its commitment or assignment actions.
S. Use of Estimates
The preparation of the basic financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
T. Reclassification
Certain reclassification have been made to the 2024 financial statements to conform to the 2025 presentation.
U. Implementation of New GASB Pronouncements
GASB Statement No. 101 – In June 2022, the GASB issued Statement No. 101, Compensated Absences. The objective of this Statement is to better meet the information needs of financial statement users by updating the recognition and measurement guidance for compensated absences. That objective is achieved by aligning the recognition and measurement guidance under a unified model and by amending certain previously required disclosures. The requirements of this Statement are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and all reporting periods thereafter. Implementation of this Statement resulted in a restatement of the beginning net position as of July 1, 2024, as presented in Note 14.

The objective of this Statement is to provide users of government financial statements with information about risks related to a government’s vulnerabilities due to certain concentrations or constraints that is essential to their analyses for making decisions or assessing accountability. The requirements of this Statement are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2024, and all reporting periods thereafter. Implementation of this Statement did not have a significant effect on the City’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025.

The California Government Code requires California banks and savings and loan associations to secure the City’s cash deposits by pledging securities as collateral. This Code states that collateral pledged in this manner shall have the effect of perfecting a security interest in such collateral superior to those of a general creditor. Thus, collateral for cash deposits is considered to be held in the City's name.
City of Anderson
Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
61 Note 2 – Cash and Investments (Continued)
A. Deposits (Continued)
The market value of pledged securities must equal at least 110% of the City's cash deposits. California law also allows institutions to secure City deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the City’s total cash deposits. The City may waive collateral requirements for cash deposits, deposits, which are fully insured up to $250,000 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The City did not waive the collateral requirement for deposits insured by FDIC.
The City follows the practice of pooling cash and investments of all funds, except for funds required to be held by fiscal agents under the provisions of bond indentures. Interest income earned on pooled cash and investments is allocated on an accounting period basis to the various funds based on the period-end cash and investment balances.
Interest income from cash and investments with fiscal agents is credited directly to the related fund.
B. Investments
Under the provisions of the City’s investment policy, and in accordance with California Government Code, the following investments are authorized:
Maximum Percentage Investment in

The City is a participant in LAIF which is regulated by California Government Code Section 16429 under the oversight of the Treasurer of the State of California. As of June 30, 2025, the City had $1,684,515 invested in LAIF.
LAIF determines fair value on its investment portfolio based on market quotations for those securities where market quotations are readily available and based on amortized cost or best estimate for those securities where market value is not readily available. LAIF is reported at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.
D. Risk Disclosures
Interest Rate Risk – While the City’s investment policy does not address interest rate risk, the City manages its exposure to interest rate risks through reliance on the managers of LAIF.
Custodial Credit Risk – For deposits, custodial credit risk is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution, the City will not be able to recover its deposits or will not be able to recover collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. For an investment, custodial credit risk is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty (e.g., broker-dealer), the City will not be able to recover the value of its investments or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. At June 30, 2025, none of the City’s deposits or investments were exposed to custodial credit risk.

Credit Risk – Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. To be eligible to receive City money, a bank, savings association, federal association, or federally insured industrial loan company shall have received an overall rating of not less than "satisfactory" in its most recent evaluation by the appropriate federal financial supervisory agency of its record of meeting the credit needs of California's communities, including low-and-moderate income neighborhoods.

Note 7 – Self-Insurance Programs
The City is a member of the Northern California Cities Workers’ Compensation Fund, a Joint Powers Authority (“JPA”), for the purpose of providing a banking plan for member cities to provide their own workers’ compensation insurance. In July 1981, the JPA instituted a program for the provision of liability insurance. In 1987, the JPA was rewritten and renamed the Northern California Cities Self Insurance Fund to combine and update the coverages of the plans. There has been no significant reduction in any of the insurance coverages from the prior year. Settled claims resulting from these programs have not exceeded insurance coverage in each of the past three fiscal years.
The current agreement is as follows:
The Workers’ Compensation Program comprises a banking or deductible layer for claims up to $100,000 and a shared risk pool for claims up to $500,000. Excess coverage is provided for claims over the shared risk layer up to the statutory limit for workers’ compensation and $5,000,000 for employers’ liability. The liability program comprises a banking or deductible layer for claims up to $50,000 and a shared risk pool for claims up to $750,000. Excess coverage is provided for claims over the shared risk layer up to $40,000,000.
Each member city is assessed a contribution which is intended to cover its share of the JPA’s claims, operating costs and claim settlement expenses. Contributions are based on an actuarially determined rate for each coverage layer (pool), based on an estimate of the probable losses and expenses to be borne by that pool for the claim year. Additional cash contributions may be assessed on the basis of adverse loss experience. Refunds to members may be made if funds are determined to be surplus as a result of an actuarial study.
City of Anderson
Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
71 Note 7 – Self-Insurance Programs (Continued)
The banking or deductible layer is the member’s deductible portion of each claim. As part of its services to members, a portion of the members’ contributions is used to pay their deductibles. If a member’s balance is insufficient, the JPA advances the necessary amounts and bills the member in the following year. Excess balances may likewise be used to offset subsequent year contributions.
The City uses internal service fund to account for the costs of self‐insurance. While the ultimate amount of the costs of self‐insurance through June 30, 2025, is dependent on future developments, City management believes that the aggregate premiums paid to the JPA are adequate to cover the City’s losses through June 30, 2025, including incurred but not reported claims (IBNRs). Claims expenses (credits) for the workers’ compensation and general liability programs for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, were $199,200 and ($32,516), respectively.
As of June 30, 2025, the JPA reported that the City has a surplus in its workers’ compensation program and general liability program in the amount of $5,877 and $259,537, respectively.
Note 8 – Defined Benefit Pension Plans
A. General Information about the Pension Plan
Plan Description
The City contributes to the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (“CalPERS”), a cost-sharing multipleemployer defined benefit pension plan. CalPERS provides retirement and disability benefits, annual cost-of-living adjustments, and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. CalPERS acts as a common investment and administrative agent for participating public entities within the State of California. Benefit provisions and all other requirements are established by State statute and City ordinance. Copies of the CalPERS annual financial report may be obtained from https://www.calpers.ca.gov/page/forms-publications.
Employees Covered by Benefit Terms
At June 30, 2023, valuation date, the following employees were covered by the benefit terms:
Misc Safety
Active employees 50 24
Transferred and terminated employees 53 25
Retired employees and beneficiaries 93 34
Total 196 83
Benefit Provided
CalPERS provide retirement and disability benefits, annual cost-of-living adjustments, and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. Classic miscellaneous members become eligible for service retirement upon attainment of age 55 with at least 5 years of credited service. Public Employee Pension Reform Act (PEPRA) miscellaneous members become eligible for service retirement upon attainment of age 62 with at least 5 years of service. The service retirement benefit is a monthly allowance equal to the product of the benefit factor, years of service, and final compensation.
Following are the benefit provisions for each plan:
Miscellaneous: 2.0% or 2.7% (at age 55) of the highest paid consecutive 12 months’ compensation City of Anderson

Miscellaneous Second Tier: 2.0% (at age 55) of the highest paid consecutive 36 months’ compensation Miscellaneous PEPRA: 2.0% (at age 62) of the highest paid consecutive 36 months’ compensation Safety Police: 3.0% (at age 50) of the highest paid consecutive 12 months’ compensation Safety Police Second Tier: 3.0% (at age 55) of the highest paid consecutive 36 months’ compensation Safety PEPRA: 2.7% (at age 57) of the highest paid consecutive 36 months’ compensation Participant is eligible for non-industrial disability retirement if becomes disabled and has at least 5 years of credited service. There is no special age requirement. The standard non-industrial disability retirement benefit is a monthly allowance equal to 1.8% of final compensation, multiplied by service. Industrial disability benefits are not offered to miscellaneous employees.
An employee's beneficiary may receive the basic death benefit if the employee dies while actively employed. The employee must be actively employed with the City to be eligible for this benefit. An employee's survivor who is eligible for any other pre-retirement death benefit may choose to receive that death benefit instead of this basic death benefit. The basic death benefit is a lump sum in the amount of the employee's accumulated contributions, where interest is currently credited at 6 percent per year, plus a lump sum in the amount of one month's salary for each completed year of current service, up to a maximum of six months' salary. For purposes of this benefit, one month's salary is defined as the member's average monthly full-time rate of compensation during the 12 months preceding death.
Upon the death of a retiree, a one-time lump sum payment of $500 will be made to the retiree's designated survivor(s), or to the retiree's estate.
Benefit terms provide for annual cost-of-living adjustments to each employee’s retirement allowance. Beginning the second calendar year after the year of retirement, retirement and survivor allowances will be annually adjusted on a compound basis by 2 percent.
Contributions
Section 20814(c) of the California Public Employees’ Retirement Law (“PERL”) requires that the employer contribution rates for all public employers be determined on an annual basis by the actuary and shall be effective on the July 1 following notice of a change in the rate. The total plan contributions are determined through CalPERS’ annual actuarial valuation process. The actuarially determined rate is based on the estimated amount necessary to pay the Plan's allocated share of the risk pool's costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, and any unfunded accrued liability. The City is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees. For the measurement period ended June 30, 2024 (the measurement date), the contribution rates were as follows:
Active Employee Employer
Plans Contribution Rate Contribution Rate
Miscellaneous 8.000% 15.950%
Miscellaneous Second Tier 7.000% 11.840%
Miscellaneous PEPRA 7.750% 7.680%
Safety Police 9.000% 25.650%
Safety Police Second Tier 9.000% 22.830%

1 The mortality table used was developed based on CalPERS-specific data. The probabilities of mortality are based on the 2021 CalPERS Experience Study and Review of Actuarial Assumptions. Mortality rates incorporate full generational mortality improvement using 80% of Scale MP-2020 published by the Society of Actuaries. For more details on this table, please refer to the 2021 experience study report from November 2021 that can be found on the CalPERS website.
Change of Assumption
For the measurement period June 30, 2024, there was no change of assumption.
Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 6.90%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions from plan members will be made at the current member contribution rates and that contributions from employers will be made at statutorily required rates , actuarially determined. Based on those assumptions, the Plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members . Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.
Long-term Expected Rate of Return
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class.

Long-term Expected Rate of Return (Continued)
In determining the long-term expected rate of return, CalPERS took into account both short-term and long-term market return expectations. Using historical returns of all of the funds’ asset classes, expected compound (geometric) returns were calculated over the next 20 years using a building-block approach. The expected rate of return was then adjusted to account for assumed administrative expenses of 10 basis points. The expected real rates of return by asset class are as follows:
Asset Class1
Assumed Asset

The following is the approach established by the plan actuary to allocate the net pension liability and pension expense to the individual employers within the risk pool. (1) In determining a cost-sharing plan’s proportionate share, total amounts of liabilities and assets are first calculated for the risk pool as a whole on the valuation date (June 30, 2023). The risk pool’s fiduciary net position (“FNP”) subtracted from its total pension liability (“TPL”) determines the net pension liability (“NPL”) at the valuation date.
(2) Using standard actuarial roll forward methods, the risk pool TPL is then computed at the measurement date (June 30, 2024). Risk pool FNP at the measurement date is then subtracted from this number to compute the NPL for the risk pool at the measurement date. For purposes of FNP in this step and any later reference thereto, the risk pool’s FNP at the measurement date denotes the aggregate risk pool’s FNP at June 30, 2024 less the sum of all additional side fund (or unfunded liability) contributions made by all employers during the measurement period (2023-2024).
(3) The individual plan’s TPL, FNP and NPL are also calculated at the valuation date. TPL is allocated based on the rate plan’s share of the actuarial accrued liability. FNP is allocated based on the rate plan’s share of the fair value assets.
(4) Two ratios are created by dividing the plan’s individual TPL and FNP as of the valuation date from (3) by the amounts in step (1), the risk pool’s total TPL and FNP, respectively. (5) The plan’s TPL as of the Measurement Date is equal to the risk pool TPL generated in (2) multiplied by the TPL ratio generated in (4). The plan’s FNP as of the Measurement Date is equal to the FNP generated in (2) multiplied by the FNP ratio generated in (4) plus any additional side fund (or unfunded liability) contributions made by the employer on behalf of the plan during the measurement period. (6) The plan’s NPL at the Measurement Date is the difference between the TPL and FNP calculated in (5).

Proportionate Share of Net Pension Liability and Pension Expense (Continued) Deferred outflows of resources, deferred inflows of resources, and pension expense is allocate based on the City’s share of contributions during measurement period.
The City’s proportionate share of the net pension liability was as follows:
Miscellaneous Safety

Change - Increase (Decrease) 0.005919% 0.000741%
The expected average remaining service lifetime (“EARSL”) is calculated by dividing the total future service years by the total number of plan participants (active, inactive, and retired). The EARSL for the miscellaneous and the safety risk pool for the 2023-24 measurement period is 3.8 years, which was obtained by dividing the total service years of 630,177 (the sum of remaining service lifetimes of the active employees) by 166,163 (the total number of participants: active, inactive, and retired).
For the year ended June 30, 2025, the City recognized pension expenses for miscellaneous plan and safety plan in the amounts of $1,655,680 and $1,449,884, respectively. At June 30, 2025, the City reported deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions from the following sources:

80 Note 12 – Successor Agency Trust for Assets of the Former Redevelopment Agency On December 29, 2011, the California Supreme Court upheld Assembly Bill 1X 26 (“the Bill”) that provided for the dissolution of all redevelopment agencies in the State of California. In accordance with the timeline set forth in the Bill (as modified by the California Supreme Court on December 29, 2011) all redevelopment agencies in the State of California were dissolved and ceased to operate as a legal entity as of February 1, 2012. The assets and activities of the dissolved redevelopment agency are reported in a fiduciary fund (private‐purpose trust fund) in the financial statements of the City.
The Bill provided that upon dissolution of a redevelopment agency, either the city or another unit of local government would agree to serve as the “successor agency” to hold the assets until they are distributed to other units of state and local government. On January 17, 2012, the City Council elected to become the Successor Agency for the former redevelopment agency in accordance with the Bill as part of City resolution number 12‐03.
The Department of Finance of the State of California granted a “Finding of Completion” on November 8, 2013, to the City of Anderson Successor Agency. The Successor Agency is now allowed to place loan agreements between the former redevelopment agency and sponsoring entity on the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule and utilize remaining bond proceeds. Successor agencies are only allocated revenue in the amount that is necessary to pay the estimated annual installment payments on enforceable obligations of the former redevelopment agency until all enforceable obligations of the prior redevelopment agency have been paid in full and all assets have been liquidated.
The Bill directs the State Controller of the State of California to review the propriety of any transfers of assets between redevelopment agencies and other public bodies that occurred after January 1, 2011. If the public body that received such transfers is not contractually committed to a third party for the expenditure or encumbrance of those assets, the State Controller is required to order the available assets to be transferred to the public body designated as the successor agency by the Bill.
Management believes, in consultation with legal counsel, that the obligations of the former redevelopment agency due to the City are valid enforceable obligations payable by the successor agency trust under the requirements of the Bill.
The City’s position on this issue is not a position of settled law and there is considerable legal uncertainty regarding this issue. It is reasonably possible that a legal determination may be made at a later date by an appropriate judicial authority that would resolve this issue unfavorably to the City.
Long-Term Liabilities
A summary of changes in long-term liabilities of the Successor Agency for the year ended June 30, 2025 is as follows:

The issuance resulted in an estimated economic gain of $1,142,256. The bonds were issued at a discount of $203,833 which will be amortized over the life of the bonds of $8,490 per year. The Bonds are payable from future property tax increment in redevelopment project areas in annual installments of $210,000 to $470,000 through August 1, 2038, and bearing interest rates of 2.000% to 4.125% payable semi‐annually on February 1 and August 1. The outstanding balance at June 30, 2025 is $5,130,000.

The City participates in a number of federal and state assisted grant programs, which are subject to program compliance audits by the grantors or their representatives. Final closeout audits of these programs have not yet been completed.
Accordingly, the City’s ultimate compliance with applicable grant requirements will be established at some future date.
Expenditures, if any, which may be disallowed by the granting agencies cannot be determined at this time, although the City expects such amounts, if any, to be immaterial.
The City is currently a party to various claims and legal proceedings. In management’s opinion, the ultimate liabilities, if any, resulting from such claims and proceedings, will not materially affect the City’s financial position.

This statement establishes accounting and financial reporting standards for compensated absences, including vacation, sick leave, and other paid time off. The implementation of GASB 101 resulted in a change in accounting principle, and prior year amounts have been restated accordingly.
Under GASB 101, a liability must be recognized for leave that is attributable to services already rendered, accumulates and carries forward to future periods, and is more likely than not to be used or paid. This represents a shift from previous guidance, particularly in how likelihood and eligibility are assessed. The effect of the restatement is as shown above. (b) Changes to or within the Financial Reporting Entity The Parks Capital Projects Fund was previously reported as a nonmajor fund, but due to the City receiving more funds, the fund met the quantitative threshold requiring the fund to be reported as a major fund for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025.
(c) Correction of Error
The General Fund beginning fund balance was restated to report $251,723 unavailable revenue, which uncollected transient occupancy tax was not deferred previously.

90 Budget and Budgetary Accounting
Budgets for the General Fund, special revenue funds and capital project funds are adopted on a basis consistent with U.S. GAAP.
Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the year for these funds. Proprietary fund budgeting parallels that of private business enterprises. Expenditures may not legally exceed budgeted appropriations at the fund level. The City Manager is authorized to make budget transfers within any fund (the legal level). All revisions must be reported to the City Council before the end of the fiscal year. All unencumbered and unexpended appropriations lapse at the end of the fiscal year. Encumbrances are reappropriated in the ensuing year’s budget.
The budgetary comparison schedules are not presented for the Asset Forfeiture Special Revenue Fund, Parking District Special Revenue Fund, Redevelopment Special Revenue Fund, Curbs, Gutters & Sidewalk Capital Projects Fund, and Shatec Project Area Capital Projects Fund.

Notes to the Budgetary Comparison Schedule
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
In June of odd numbered years, the City Council considers and adopts a budget plan for the coming two fiscal years. In June of each fiscal year, appropriations are adopted for the upcoming fiscal year for each fund and for departmental units within each fund.
Budgetary control is maintained at the fund level; the City Manager may transfer appropriations between accounts in each fund.
However, any revision that alters the total expenditure level of a fund must be approved by the City Council. 91 Measurement Date June 30, 2024 June 30, 2023 June 30, 2022 June 30, 2021 June 30, 2020 City's Proportion of the Net Pension Liability 0.21263% 0.08602% 0.08382% 0.10096% 0.19849% City's Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability 10,283,875 $ 10,212,367 $ 9,681,762 $ 5,460,213 $ 8,372,308 $ City's Covered Payroll 3,372,335 $ 3,434,779 $ 2,480,261 $ 2,412,690 $ 2,344,535 $ City's Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability as a Percentage of its Covered Payroll 32.79% 33.63% 25.62% 226.31% 357.10% Plan's Proportionate Share of the Fiduciary Net Position as a Percentage of the Total Pension Liability 70.37% 69.84% 69.65% 81.85% 71.52% Measurement Date June 30, 2024 June 30, 2023 June 30, 2022 June 30, 2021 June 30, 2020 City's Proportion of the Net Pension Liability 0.09101% 0.05524% 0.05253% 0.05998% 0.07797% City's Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability 6,635,635 $ 6,714,178 $ 6,067,828 $ 3,243,741 $ 5,194,699 $ City's Covered Payroll 2,944,107 $ 3,066,350 $ 2,221,452 $ 1,874,269 $ 1,583,986 $ City's Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability as a Percentage of its Covered Payroll 44.37% 45.67% 36.61% 173.07% 327.95% Plan's Proportionate Share of the Fiduciary Net Position as a Percentage of the Total Pension Liability 74.91% 71.89% 71.95% 83.17% 71.93% City of Anderson

The amendment, commonly known as Proposition 13, limits the taxing power of California public agencies. The California Legislature enacted legislation to implement Article XIIIA (Statues of 1978, Chapter 292, as emended) providing that local agencies may not levy any property tax except to pay debt service on indebtedness approved by voters prior to July 1, 1978, and that each county will levy the maximum tax permitted of $1.00 per $100 of full assessed value.
** Amounts effected by alternate method of apportioning. Participating agencies are paid 100% of the current levy adjusted by file maintenance.

Note:
In 1978, the voters of the State of California passed Proposition 13 which limited property taxes to a maximum rate of 1% based upon the assessed value of the property being taxed. Each year, the assessed valuation may be increased by an "inflation factor" (limited to a maximum increase of 2%). With some exceptions, property is only reassessed at the time that it is sold to a new owner. At that point, the new assessed value is reassessed at the purchase price of the property sold. The assessed valuation data shown above represents the only data currently available with respect to the actual market value of taxable property and is subject to the limitations described above.
These are Gross Taxable Values.

REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND
OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
Independent Auditor's Report
To the Honorable Mayor and the Members of City Council
of the City of Anderson
Anderson, California
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States ("Government Auditing Standards"), the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Anderson, California (the "City"), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2025, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated February 13, 2026.
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City's internal control over financial reporting ("internal control") as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the nonnal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity's financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. We identified certain deficiency in internal control, described in the accompanying schedule of findings and responses as item 2025-001 that we consider to be material weaknesses.
