Sustainability Activities
The current sustainability projects and activities are:

1. Waste Reduction
a. Environmental Program Committee
The EPC cancelled the Thursday, May 15 meeting. Staff are preparing for a Special Meeting that will include a review of the Atherton Earth Day and planning EPC initiatives for the remainder of the year.
b. Refuse & Recycling Committee
The Committee did not have a meeting scheduled for May. c. Compost Pile
The compost pile at Holbrook-Palmer Park continues to be a popular and well-used free resource for the community. It is restocked regularly every 2–3 months, or as needed when levels are visibly low.

This program is funded by the SB 1383 Organic Waste Recovery Grant. Since its launch in FY 2022/23, approximately 215 tons of compost have been ordered and distributed to the community!
d. Annual Waste Wise Event – Saturday, April 12, 2025
On Saturday, April 12, 2025, we held the Atherton’s Waste Wise Event at Holbrook Palmer Park.

Residents arrived 30 minutes early and the GreenWaste Recovery Team conducted a safety meeting before officially opening the event. A morning rush led to a brief backup that took about 30 minutes to clear, with three staff members checking in vehicles and processing three cars at a time.

The paper shredding contractor was set up near the Main House, labeled “Paper Shredding,” and remained busy throughout the day. In addition to assisting residents with paper shredding, staff also helped collect and recycle the cardboard boxes used to transport documents, offering an extra level of service and convenience. The E-waste collection site was located at the first parking lot near the entrance, labeled “E-Waste Drop-off.” This area saw heavy activity, and the flatbed truck was filled to capacity.

Several full 96-gallon carts were moved separately by supervisors to ensure all materials were accepted. The compost giveaway site, labeled “Compost Giveaway,” was located near the Corp Yard and operated smoothly. The loose compost had been delivered in advance, and residents were able to load the material independently. The layout and setup followed the same format as the previous year.

City Clerk Monthly Report
May 21, 2025
The weather was beautiful, the event ran safely and efficiently, and the steady stream of residents remained positive and grateful throughout the day. A total of 254 customers participated, with none being turned away.

The Public Works Director oversees general Park maintenance and activities. The Park has several contract service personnel and vendors that manage various activities at the park.

Park Event Services are typically provided via contract. With the departure of Catered Too, temporary personnel have been contracted to manage all park events and rental services, to include rental of fields, buildings, and picnic areas until a permanent vendor is contracted. MCE provides facility support on a Task Order basis.

BrightView Landscaping provides landscape maintenance services for the park. Player Capital provides management and general maintenance of the six Tennis Courts.

There are three (3) structures available for event rental at the park – the Carriage House, the Main House, and the Pavilion. Outdoor venues may also be rented, and these include the Event Garden, Water Tower Green and North Meadow. Picnic areas in the park may be reserved for small group day rental. Menlo Atherton Little League manages and maintains the Willie Mays Ball Field.

Planning Commission met for their regular meeting on April 23, 2025, the following occurred.

Planning Commission Updates:

1. For Wednesday night's PC meeting, four Commissioners participated in-person (Chair Lane, Leugers, Levison, and Tonelli). V. Chair Polito was absent due to a prior conflict.

2. There was no general public comment.

Public Hearing

1. Tree Protection Zone Exception (PTPZ25-00002) to accommodate a new detached garage and pool equipment building at 99 Edwards Lane (APN 070211550). This is a straightforward request to reduce the TPZ to 6x for two Coast Live Oaks and was approved by the Planning Commission, consistent with staff's recommendation. The decision was unanimous. There was no public comment.

2. Request for Heritage Tree Removal (HTR25-002) of five (5) Coast Live Oak Heritage trees to construct full site development of a one-story single-family residence with a basement and various accessory buildings at 170 Atherton Avenue (APN 070070280). This project requests removal of four Coast Live Oaks and relocation of one Coast Live Oaks. Relocation is tantamount to a removal and was processed as the 5th removal. Staff recommended approval of 4 removals and denial of the 1 relocation/removal, given concerns over the success of a relocation. Staff recommended that if the Commission approve all 5 removals, to include a condition that would apply penalties if the relocated tree died within 5 years. The Commission discussed the relocation with staff and the applicant and then voted unanimously to approve removal of all 5 trees, without the penalty condition. The Commission indicated that they would support the removal of the 5th tree, without relocation and that attempting to successfully relocate the tree is at the discretion of the applicant and they would not be penalized for failure. There was no public comment.

Response Times
In general, there are 3 types of Calls for Service from the Police Department. In order of priority:

High, Medium, and Low.

High Priority calls are in-progress events where persons or high-value property are in immediate danger and requires a multiple officer response. This is a lights and siren response to a crime in progress, injury collision, or medical emergency.

Medium Priority calls are in-progress events without immediate danger to persons or property.

Multiple officers may be necessary for these calls. These calls take precedence over all other calls for service and require an immediate police response (non-lights and siren), but the incident may not be in progress. The most common medium priority calls are burglary, robbery, sexual assault, and residential burglary alarm activations. The latter is the most frequent call in Atherton.

Low Priority calls are other calls for service. Events that may no longer be in-progress, so immediate response is not as urgent. Normally requires a single officer. Officers may or may not be immediately dispatched to these calls. Low priority calls are dogs off leash the Park, parking violations, construction noise or activity, and follow-up police reports.

During the Reporting Period there were:

Priority Level Number of Calls Average Response Time Goal High 1 3:07 <4 minutes
Medium 316 4:50 <6 minutes
Low 249 2:44 <8 minutes
Response times are calculated from the time the call is dispatched until the time the officer arrives on the scene. The table below depicts the Department’s Medium Priority response times for the past 6 months.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT – CONSENT AGENDA
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL

GEORGE RODERICKS, CITY MANAGER
FROM: ANTHONY SUBER, DEPUTY CITY MANAGER/ CITY CLERK
DATE: MAY 21, 2025
SUBJECT: STRATEGIC COMMUNICATIONS SUPPORT SERVICES

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Council authorize the City Manager to execute on behalf of the Town an agreement for strategic communications support with Tripepi Smith and Associates, Inc., for a maximum amount of $44,000, for one year.

BACKGROUND | ANALYSIS
The Town has contracted with Tripepi Smith and Associates, Inc. since May 2022 for strategic communications support. Their initial scope of work was focused on assisting with the development and design of the quarterly Athertonian newsletter. That focus has grown to include ongoing tasks such as social media development and support, creating and improving Town webpages and developing graphic design elements for Town projects. The contract includes capacity for ad-hoc design and communications needs specific to projects or services such as the Police Department's annual report. In 2023 the Council approved the use of Tripepi Smith to assist with marketing and messaging related to the Town’s Housing Element Update process, we have utilized Tripepi‘s expertise in revising the Public Works webpage for capital projects and have consulted with their designers to enhance our outreach materials.

The current contract expires in May 2025 and the City Manager is recommending a new contract for continued strategic communications support, as well as the capacity for all Departments to access their services to assist with specific project communications needs.

The proposed contract includes a fixed fee for the design and management of the quarterly newsletter consisting of bi-weekly check-in/strategy calls, article development, quarterly planning with department directors, website support and social media management as needed.

The contract approval amends and extends the existing contract.

FISCAL IMPACT

Strategic Communications Contract Renewal
MAY 21, 2025

This total amount includes the fixed fee for the quarterly newsletter at $7,445 per edition in FY 2025/26 and capacity for additional ad hoc work as requested by the Town. Budget for the contract has been included in the recommended FY 2025/26 budget.

Axioms We Live By
Introduction
In our work with over 200 local government agencies on external communications since our incorporation in 2002, we have identified many patterns, observations and insights. As a result we have developed some axioms (AKA sayings or mottos) when it comes to thinking about external-facing communications. These are just a few that we find universally true.

Content X Distribution = Impact
The audience must see your content to be impacted by it.

Tripepi Smith was born in the digital era. We take digital seriously and recognize how critical it is to not only develop great visuals and messaging, but to ensure the audiences we want to reach actually see that content.
“Content x Distribution = IMPACT” is how we illustrate the point: What good is content if you aren’t properly promoting, distributing or sharing it? On the other hand, what good is distribution if the content fails to engage your audience positively? We use this principle to guide a comprehensive distribution strategy that ensures we reach our target audiences.

If you don’t publish
information first, someone
else will–and they may not
care about the facts.

Single Source Communications
Tripepi Smith & Associates 10
In this age of smartphones and voice-activated virtual assistants, we are used to being able to access news and information at our fingertips. When your community cannot easily find information — such as a controversial policy decision, a new housing development or a political scandal — they may resort to finding "the facts" on their own. This is especially true for crisis communications: the longer you wait to address the crisis, the more time you are giving to others to fill that void with their own research and/or opinions.

So, we strive to get your information out there first, even if it is a "holding message" such as "we are aware of the situation and will use our official channels to share more info soon." By publishing information on your agency's website or some other centralized location, you, your agency leadership and your supporters will be able to easily debunk misinformation with verifiable facts and talking points.

Only a small percentage of
the population understands
local government the way we do.

The 3% includes local government professionals like you and consultants like us–the select few who wake up daily thinking about the complexities facing public policy and municipal management. We have our own language in local government: terms, phrases and especially acronyms. Most of the population may have little exposure to or interest in local government. They just want their utilities to work, no potholes, low crime and other securities provided by their local governments that enable a high quality of life.

So, when we speak with the 97% through public outreach, we ensure our language is accessible and understandable. This mitigates any risk of alienating them; moreover, it enables an ability to build relationships and engender trust.

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
Atheron’s Needs
The Town of Atherton is seeking a partner in reaching and engaging its community with a quarterly newsletter along with options for additional communication and outreach as needed.

Tripepi Smith’s Approach
Tripepi Smith has experience in all facets of Atherton’s requests. We will accomplish these goals through:
• Conducting monthly check-in calls to stay apprised of the events and issues Atherton faces and advise on communication strategies.
• Providing a quarterly newsletter that includes planning, writing, design, layout and print vendor coordination.
• Creating graphic design, website content and photography or videography projects as needed.

Project Management
Tripepi Smith begins all engagements with a kickoff meeting with the client to: introduce personnel to one another, define Key Performance Indicators (metrics, goals and timelines); review project management processes; and ensure each stakeholder has a full understanding of their responsibilities.

Tripepi Smith primarily uses the following tools to manage projects:
• Google Workspace for email, creating real-time collaborative documents and instant messaging • Zoom or Google Meet for conference calls
• Sprout Social for social media management: posting and monitoring comments/messages • Meltwater for media intelligence and media relations
• Kantata for project/task management, internal project status updates and time entry These tools enable project managers to quickly determine a project’s budget status, review the schedule of tasks, send rapid notifications to the whole team if issues arise and, generally, sustain momentum on our efforts.

Single Source Communications
Tripepi Smith & Associates 15
Monthly Strategy Sessions
To coordinate our efforts with Town Staff and sustain momentum on projects, Tripepi Smith will schedule a recurring, one-hour monthly phone call that will include a Town-designated lead for our engagement.

These monthly calls will help drive content planning for various communications channels, including newsletter articles, website articles, webpage updates and other stories. Call content will focus on story plans, new issues or concerns that need to be communicated and identification of major themes or ideas to address in the coming weeks. This will be a working call during which Tripepi Smith will manage an agenda and provide notes for each call. After each call, the client will receive an action summary email about decisions made on the phone call and related action steps. We will produce work, such as webpage and article drafts, in a shared workspace where the Town can see our progress in real time and provide instant feedback as needed. These tools allow for enhanced collaboration and expedite the production process.

Quarterly Newsletter
Tripepi Smith has multiple graphic artists with access to the complete Adobe Creative Suite. Our artists’ experience working in public affairs expedites their development process and reduces the possibility of design direction being lost in translation. which includes graphic design time to layout the “Athertonian.” We have assumed here that Tripepi Smith will write five (5) articles and the Town will write all remaining content for the newsletter. Tripepi Smith will also make our resources available on an ad hoc basis to assist with content writing if extra writing is needed for a particular issue.

Ad-Hoc Needs
Tripepi Smith is prepared to provide the following services on an as-need (ad-hoc) basis. The services may include following and are not limited to:

Websites
Tripepi Smith can supplement Staff efforts to improve your website. With decades of combined experience managing websites for public agencies, our team handles all website needs, from content strategy, creation and maintenance to technical support and full-fledged website redesigns.

direction to executing overall project management and everything in between. We organize our process into three phases:
• Pre-Production: During this phase, our teams will collaborate to identify visual concepts, tone, audiences, milestones and your goals for the project. Our team will then develop a script that, once finalized with client stakeholders, will be recorded as voiceover narration. Our staff creates a storyboard consisting of the complete script as well as what we envision as complementary visual elements, ensuring that each segment of the video and key message packs a punch. This material will live in a ‘Production Doc’ that you will have access to and ample opportunity to provide feedback on.
• Production: In phase two, our animation experts bring our creative vision to life, consolidating the work product of pre-production — our script and voiceover, music and the storyboard — into an animated video.
• Post-Production: Once you receive your first draft of the video, we enter the review phase, during which you will get to review and provide edits on up to two iterations of the video. Our team will deliver the final video, complete with captions (as requested and decided upon during preproduction) in a format(s) best suited for the platforms through which you wish to share the video.

Typically, we provide final videos in .MP4 formats as well as caption file(s) in .SRT formats via Dropbox.

Photography
With experience spanning a variety of multimedia projects, including videography, photography, drone, event coverage, event production or a combination thereof, Tripepi Smith’s talented in-house photographers understand the impact of photography of your community’s iconic sites.

The adage, “a picture is worth a thousand words,” rings true, especially for local governments whose communications are most impactful when representing the communities in which they serve.

Our team contains experts in multiple format outputs, which ensures that your photos will be compatible across your distribution platforms. We provide photography services for:
• Portraiture (Studio and environmental)
• Architecture
• Behind-the-Scenes
• Events (Ribbon cuttings, tree lightings,
summer activities, concerts and more)
• Conferences & Networking Events
• Fine Arts Shows/Gatherings
• Graduation Events
• Groundbreaking Ceremonies
• Promotional
• Keynote/Presentation Speakers
• Stock Imagery (Including drone)

Our Approach to Photography
Photography, much like videography, requires deliberate, thorough preparation to achieve beautiful results. We organize shoots into three phases:
• Pre-Production: Our photographer will conduct a pre-photo shoot phone call of up to 30 minutes to review your key goals and objectives for the photos. During this phase, our team might develop a shot list or collaborate with a client to build upon their wish list of shots. We will also coordinate logistics, such as establishing a timeline and method for photo album delivery. • Production: You can expect our photographers to be onsite at least 30 minutes prior to the start of any photo shoot event in order to check in with client leads and review shoot conditions, such as weather and lighting. We may be onsite even earlier for shoots that require supplemental lighting or equipment, such as for headshot photo shoots when we set up a traveling photo studio. • Post-Production: After a photo shoot, Tripepi Smith’s photographer will spend the following days processing (editing) the images for optimal lighting, color, composition and more. If an occasion requires photos to be available immediately, our photographer can stay onsite and process the photos in real time.

Delivery
We deliver photos in native RAW and JPEG/JPG formats via Dropbox or Photoshelter, with the latter being the most client-friendly for organizing, reviewing and downloading photos. We can also upload photos to your preferred photo platform, such as an intranet or Flickr. Once we deliver the photos, they become yours — we release all rights to the photos and do not require watermarks.

Graphic Design
In today’s age of information saturation, it’s more important than ever for local governments to cut through the noise by designing materials that are attractive, interesting and reflective of the message.

Our diverse design team, from seasoned creative directors to detail-oriented technicians, illustrators, color experts and data visualization specialists, ensures we can tackle projects of every scale.

Moreover, we’ve honed an expertise in inspiring action among residents through daily collaboration with a wide range of public agencies. This translates to impactful visuals that grab attention, effectively communicate your message in a clear and engaging way and also inform the public. As public agency engagement specialists, accessibility is a cornerstone of every project that we undertake.

Our graphic design work spans:
• Logos, sub-logos, branding, campaigns
• Brochures, guides, newsletters, reports
• Animated visuals for social media, video
and web
• PDF, accessibility, ADA compliance
• PPT, presentations, meeting materials
• Stationery, business cards, templates
• Social media, web banners, email
• Infographics, financials, instructions
• Posters, banners, signage
• Conference materials, booths, swag

Other Cost Information
Tripepi Smith has related service fees that may come up during our engagement that we want to tell you about.

Annual Increase
Tripepi Smith will increase the hourly rates and retainer fees for all resources by 5% or the national CPI index–whichever is higher–each year on the anniversary of the contract, starting on the first anniversary of any contract when the contract duration is longer than one year. Otherwise, new rates will be negotiated with each new contract.

Retainer Discount
When a client’s retainer exceeds $7,500 per month, they gain access to our reduced retainer rates.

Travel Costs
Travel costs must be pre-authorized and then will be reimbursed by the client for any requested travel to complete a requested scope of work. Travel costs may include airfare, lodging, car rentals and gas.

Additionally, when client work requires that we be onsite, we will invoice for a resource’s travel time at 50% of the resource’s hourly rate.

Equipment Costs
Tripepi Smith offers some services that require equipment, such as drone operations and video production. As such, in those cases, the following rates apply:

Half Day (Under 4 Hours) Full Day (4+ Hours)
Video $450 $650
Drone $550 – Flat Fee
Please note that A/V equipment fees are based on the amount and type of equipment required, with pricing tailored to the specifics of each event.

Music and Video Licensing
Sometimes, the client will want Tripepi Smith to apply music or use stock imagery/video while producing video. In these cases, we will need to apply licensing fees of approximately $100 per song and $200 if we use stock video imagery. This will provide a license for the use of the music and video footage to Tripepi Smith and its clients.

POLICY FOCUS

AUDITED FY 2023-24 BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
May 21, 2025

Each year the City Council accepts its Audited Financial Statements as part of the Town’s annual operating practice. The Audited Financial Statements represent the financial picture of the Town.

It is an examination of the Town’s financial statements and disclosures by an independent auditor and an assurance that the Town conducts its finances in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The result is a report from the auditor attesting to the fairness of the presentation of the financial statements and disclosures. The audit is not an opinion of the Town’s fiscal health and outlook.

The Management Discussion & Analysis (MD&A) is an important section of the Audit Report providing a picture of the Town’s finances from management’s perspective. The MD&A is factbased and provides readers with the management’s view of what is critical about the Town’s financial prospectus. The MD&A complements the Audited Financial Statements but is broader in scope. The MD&A can present an opinion of the Town’s fiscal health and outlook.

Our examination was conducted in accordance with the attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

We believe that the evidence we obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Honorable Members of the City Council
Town of Atherton, California
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Town of Atherton, California (Town), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Town’s basic financial statements as listed in the Table of Contents.

Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audit in accordance with 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. 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 Town and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirement 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.

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these 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 the financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

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 Town’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 generally accepted auditing standards 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. 1

In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards 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 Town’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 Town’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 and other Required Supplementary Information as listed in the Table of Contents 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, 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.

Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the Town’s basic financial statements. The accompanying Supplementary Information, as listed in the Table of Contents, is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the Supplementary Information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.

2

Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated February 5, 2025, on our consideration of the Town’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 Town’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 Town’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
As management of the Town of Atherton, we offer readers of the Town of Atherton’s financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the Town of Atherton for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. We encourage readers to consider the information presented here.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
• The assets of the Town of Atherton exceeded its liabilities at the end of the most recent fiscal year by $99,089,900 (net position).
• The government’s total net position increased by $3,631,261. This includes total revenues of $27,146,297 over total expenditures of $23,515,036. Total revenues increased $1,920,678 and there was an increase in total expenses of $5,393,693. The town received higher total tax revenues of only $225,178. This was due to the previous year the Town receiving $931,066 in Library Tax revenue held in Trust. In the current year the Town only received $526,086, this is a decrease of $404,980 in Library tax revenue due to paying back a portion of advancement of Library funds. All other property taxes were higher than the previous year in the amount of $406,266. This includes the VLF revenue. The Property Tax in lieu VLF received in the current year was $947,113. This is a decrease of $926,745 in revenue from the previous year amount received of $1,873,858. This is a result of the VLF revenue shortfalls agencies are experiencing. There were higher other taxes revenues and franchise fees of $89,924 and sales tax of $133,968. Operating grants and contributions had an increase of $501,943 This was due to an increase in receiving grant revenue reimbursement for capital project Middlefield bike lanes and CalTrain revenue train station remodel. There is reduction in Town Center donations as last fiscal year we received the Atherton Now close out funds of $250,000. There was an increase in Police Donations of $236,000 for a new Wellness Program. There was an increase in charges for services of $176,583 and other revenues of $122,464. Town investment earnings increased $894,510 from prior year. The year had an increase in total expenses of $5,393,693 of which a majority was attributed to an additional recognized pension expense increase of $1,185,735, reduction in Net OPEB expense of $895,891, increase in salaries/MOU, additional capital expenditures outlays, and depreciation $2,000,614 and Capital Lease expense cost of $861,871.
• The Town recorded a net pension liability of $19,018,949 which is an increase of $1,150,121 to last year. The Miscellaneous employee plan is $6,793,214, an increase of $427,797. The Safety plan is $12,225,735, an increase of $722,324.
• The Town recorded a net OPEB asset of $510,726 This is a net change increase of $83,794 from last fiscal year.
• As of the close of the current fiscal year, the Town of Atherton’s governmental funds reported combined fund balances of $28,995,551 an increase of $3,131,168 in comparison with the prior year. The majority of the increase is due to positive increase in revenues over expenditures and ramp up of allocations to Capital improvement fund for capital projects.
• The General Fund is the chief operating account of the Town. At the end of the current fiscal year, the unassigned fund balance for the general fund was $9,527,166 or 48 percent of total general fund expenditures of $19,767,139. The Town has a fund balance policy of not dropping the unassigned fund balance below 15% of the actual annual operating expenditures and the Town balance well exceeds this amount.
• The unassigned General Fund balance decreased by $1,528,362 compared to fiscal year 2022-2023. Key contributing factors included an increase of transfers out compared to the prior year and continue COP lease financing payments. Transfers out were $5,890,000 compared to last fiscal year transfers out of $4,529,037 from the General Fund. This transfer out of $5,890,000 was for allocation to Capital Improvement fund for future capital improvement projects. There was an increase in General Fund revenues of $1,980,006 and an increase in total expenditures of $1,967,138 year over year. The main increase in General Fund expenses is due to the increase in operation expenses in the Planning department due to increase counter hours costs and working on updates to the 6th Cycle Housing Element state mandate. Increase in pension expense due to UAL increase from the discount rate adjustment from 7% to 6.8%. The General Fund maintained excess revenues over expenditures of $4,701,541. The Town is ramping up on other Capital Improvement projects priorities and is evident in the transfer out of $5,890,000 which resulted in a negative change in fund balance of $1,188,459 for the fiscal year.

OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
This discussion and analysis are intended to serve as an introduction to the Town of Atherton’s basic financial statements. The Town of Atherton’s basic financial statements comprise three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the financial statements. This report also contains other required supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements themselves.

Government-wide Financial Statements. The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the Town of Atherton’s finances, in a manner similar to private-sector business.

The Statement of Net Position presents information on all of the Town of Atherton’s assets and liabilities, with the difference between the two reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the Town of Atherton is improving or deteriorating.

The Statement of Activities presents information showing how the government’s net assets changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net assets 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 (e.g., uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave).

Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the Town of Atherton that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities). The governmental activities of the Town of Atherton include general government, planning, building, public safety (Police), and public works.

The government-wide financial statements can be found on pages 20-21 of this report.

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 Town of Atherton, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of the Town of Atherton can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds.

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 impact of the government’s near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.

The Town of Atherton maintains fourteen individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances for the General Fund, Special Tax Special Revenue Fund, and Library Special Revenue Fund, all of which are considered to be major funds. The Town of Atherton also elected to include Facilities Construction Capital Projects Fund as a major fund. Data from the other ten 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. 6

The Town of Atherton adopts an annual appropriated budget for its General Fund, Special Tax Special Revenue Fund, and Library Special Revenue Fund. A budgetary comparison statement has been provided for the General Fund, Special Tax Special Revenue Fund, and Library Special Revenue Fund to demonstrate compliance with this budget.

The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 24-30 of this report.

Proprietary funds. The Town of Atherton maintains one type of proprietary funds. Internal service funds are an accounting device used to accumulate and allocate costs internally among the Town of Atherton various functions. The Town of Atherton uses internal service funds to account for its fleet of vehicles and equipment, workers’ compensation liability, general and employment liabilities, and employee benefits including compensated absences and other post-employment benefits other than pension. Because all of these services predominantly benefit governmental rather than business-type functions, they have been included within governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements.

The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 36-38 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 Town of Atherton’s own programs. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is much like that used for proprietary funds.

The basic fiduciary fund financial statements can be found on page 40-41 of this report.

Notes to the Financial Statements. The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements. The notes to the financial statements can be found on pages 43-75 of this report.

Other information. In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents certain required supplementary information providing a budgetary comparison statement for General Fund, Special Tax Special Revenue Fund, and Library Special Revenue Fund. Required supplementary information can be found on pages 78-81 of this report.

The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with nonmajor governmental funds and internal service funds are presented immediately following the required supplementary information. Combining and individual fund statements and schedules can be found on pages 86-92 of this report.

GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government’s financial position. In the case of the Town of Atherton, assets exceeded liabilities by $99,089,900 at the close of the most recent fiscal year.

By far the largest portion of the Town of Atherton’s net position (80 percent) reflects its investment in capital assets of $80,079,093 (e.g., land, buildings, vehicles, machinery, and equipment) less any related debt used to acquire those assets that are still outstanding. Capital Assets decreased $404,120 due to depreciation expense on current capital assets and increase on capital addition of capital projects in design and construction phase.

The Town of Atherton uses capital assets to provide services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the Town of Atherton’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. 7

Unrestricted 2,744,790 3,772,602
Total net position $ 99,089,900 $ 95,458,639
An additional portion of the Town of Atherton net position $16,266,017 (16.4 percent) represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they may be used. The remaining balance of unrestricted net assets is $2,744,790 and is being used to meet the government’s ongoing obligations. The implementation of GASB 75 during the fiscal year 2017-18 required the recognition of the entire net OPEB liability. This included a prior period adjustment to the net position in governmental activities and employee benefits fund for a total of $9,738,515.

This adjustment was in the unrestricted net position balance in the government-wide statement. There was an increase in net pension expense of $1,185,735 and decrease in net OPEB expense of $895,891 for the fiscal year 2023-24. The Town procured Capital Lease financing in the amount of $7,680,000 for the Town Center project in fiscal year 2019-20. The outstanding balance of $4,817,233 reduced net investment in Capital Assets to $80,079,093. These were additional adjustments in the unrestricted net position balance along with yearly changes in net pension and OPEB liabilities.

At the end of the current fiscal year, the Town of Atherton reports positive balances for all three categories of net assets related to governmental activities. The prior fiscal year the Town reported positive balances for all three categories.

Governmental activities Governmental activities increased the Town of Atherton’s net assets by $3,631,261.

The fiscal year 2023-24 included an increase in recognized pension expense of $1,185,735. The prior year recognition of pension liabilities, deferred outflows, and deferred inflows of resources totaled $12,010,559.

Together with the recognized pension expense increases of $1,185,735 in the fiscal year, this reflects a total adjustment of $13,196,294 to the Total Net Position. For the Fiscal Year end the Town recognized a reduction in OPEB expense of $895,891. With the addition of the OPEB pension asset, deferred outflows, and deferred inflows of resources for OPEB, this resulted in a total adjustment amount of $330,004 in the current fiscal year.

The total Town Net Position is $99,089,900. Without the recognition of pension and OPEB liabilities, the Town would have a total net position of $112,616,198 for FY 2023-24. The Town had an increase in expenditures of $5,393,693 across major funds and other governmental funds due to increase in pension expense and net decreased OPEB, as well as increase in state mandated cost expense for housing element update. There were increased asset cost additions as other capital project priorities are ramping up. The Town has contributed a combined $2,525,954 during the previous seven fiscal years toward the OPEB trust for continued reduction of its unfunded liability.

Financial Analysis of the Government’s Funds
As noted earlier, the Town of Atherton uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with financerelated legal requirements.

From FY 2011, The Town adopted the provision of Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 54 (GASB 54), Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions. Additional information can be found in Note 6 on pages 57 through 59 in the financial statements.

Governmental funds:

The focus of the Town of Atherton’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the Town of Atherton’s financing requirements. In particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government’s net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.

General Fund is the chief operating fund of the Town of Atherton. At the end of the current fiscal year, the unassigned fund balance of the general fund was $9,527,166, while total fund balance reached $12,729,534. As a measure of the general fund’s liquidity, it is useful to compare both unassigned fund balance and total fund balance to total fund expenditures. Unassigned fund balance represents 48 percent of the total general fund expenditures of $19,767,139, while total fund balance represents 64 percent of that same amount of total expenditures.
10

The Town of Atherton’s general fund balance decreased by $1,188,459 during the current fiscal year. Key factors in the increase are as follows:
• The Council authorized the use of the General Fund unallocated reserve fund balance toward the Town Capital Improvement Program. With Council direction, the unallocated reserve balance can be appropriated towards operational use, for capital projects, or to pay down liabilities. There was also a transfer out of$5,890,000 to the Capital Improvement Fund for future Town capital projects. In the previous year the total allocations from the General Fund were transfers out of $4,529,037. The breakdown was $1,189,037 to the Facility Construction Fund for final construction costs on the Town Center project and $3,340,000 to the Capital Improvement fund for Town Capital Projects. The $5,890,000 transfer out is an increase of$1,360,963 in General Fund Transfer out proceeds from prior year. The priority focus is now on capital projects in the various Town master plans.
• The General Fund Revenue increased $1,980,006 from the prior year and there was a $1,967,138 increase in General Fund operating expenditures. The increase in expenditures was due to CalPERS normal cost increases. There were increases in equipment purchases for audio system upgrades, network security, Flock camera system, maintenance and rehab park pathways and playground, liability, health insurance, new wellness program, increase in operational expenses and facility maintenance within General government departments, Police, Planning, and Public Works departments. We are in the fourth-year payment of lease financing of Town Center as we paid $861,871. It is a 10-year financing with a 5-year call option. There was a new four-year Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that began on July 1, 2023 and included salary increase and equity adjustments for the Atherton Police Officers Association. There were also salary increases for Town employees. In Fiscal Year 2023-24 the CPI increase for Town employees was 4%. The Atherton Police Officer Association in addition to CPI increases had one time equity adjustments to various positions in the MOU that ranged from 2.90% to 10%.
• The CalPERS employer contribution rate increased, as total expense was $180,771 higher than the previous year. Public Safety had the highest employer contribution rate increase of 3.45% and the department was fully staffed. CalPERS continues to collect the unfunded liability as a dollar amount. The Town payment of the unfunded liability portion for the fiscal year decreased $45,242 to $1,223,001. The total CalPERS expense for the Town increased $135,529.
• Total Property tax revenues increased by $393,035. In the previous year property taxes increased by $1,102,290. Secured property taxes increased $1,023,654. Property Tax in Lieu of VLF had a decrease of $926,745 from the previous year. This was due to there being a shortfall of VLF revenue of $704,674. The VLF amount due for FY 2023/24 was $1,651,448, but the Town received $947,113 There is hope that the State FY 2025/26 budget will address this shortfall. ERAF revenue had an increase of $324,540 for a total of $2,663,605.
• Other taxes (Franchise tax & Document Transfer Tax) increased by $80,479. A majority of the increase was in Document Transfer tax of $171,345 over the previous year for a total amount of $677,899, an indication of slight increase in the sale of properties. Cable fee decreased $35,553 over the previous year for a total amount of $133,468. This was a result of receiving standard four quarter payments for cable franchise fee. In the previous year an additional payment for cable franchise fee was received. There was an adjustment in refuse fees payments $60,085 decrease true up from an error in franchise fee overpayment to the Town on rate increases in first half of year.
• Sales taxes increased by $133,968 compared to the previous year for a total of $434,106. • The Business License fee increased by $9,445 for a total of $279,184. • Fines and Forfeitures increased by $178,954. A majority of the increase is due to the C&D time limit forfeiture of $1,022,800 realized in the year. The amount in the previous year was $874,200. Heritage Tree Damage Fee increased $25,500 over the previous year amount of $35,400. • Service Charges increased by $47,423. A majority of the increase is attributed to building permit fees, which were $153,543 more than the previous year. Planning fees were $17,732 more than the previous year.

Building activity in the Town is at a somewhat slower pace than previous year. Encroachment permits saw an increase of $45,290. Administrative code enforcement citations decreased $41,300 for a total of $71,800. • Park revenue decreased by $114,862 over previous year for an amount of $61,461 as park rental activity decreased significantly as the Town does not have a full-time park event management contractor. 11

• The Town saw an increase in miscellaneous revenue of $304,104 over the previous year. This was due to the Town receiving donations of $236,000 for Police Department wellness and nutrition program and additional training toward perishable skills. The Town also received $100,000 in funding for a dedicated school resource officer at Menlo Atherton High School.

Special Tax Special Revenue Fund has a total fund balance of $476,408, all of which is reserved for street and drainage facility maintenance. The Town no longer receives Parcel Tax revenue and only maintains residual funds from prior years. The Parcel Tax appropriated $245,000 in funding to street maintenance projects. Due to a backlog in street maintenance projects in 2023 and 2024 of $1,500,000, these funds are earmarked for slurry seal and overlay street maintenance projects. The Parcel Tax Fund also appropriated $231,000 for drainage and green infrastructure plan implementation. There was an expenditure of $3,437 on design services that began. The Town anticipates spending the residual monies in the special tax fund within our Town Capital Improvement Program in FY 2024-25.

Library Special Revenue Fund has a total fund balance of $2,717,591 all of which is reserved for remainder of the library operation and construction residual pay back of funds. Revenue was lower than the previous year by $404,980. This is a result of the Town paying back a portion of the advancement of secured taxes for completion of the Library project. The advancement of funds of $5,391,725 was the amount received in FY 2021-22. The secured property taxes in FY 2023-24 were $526,086 as these are excess funds held by San Mateo County Libraries (SMCL). The Library JPA will retain any Excess Funds that it would otherwise restrict and hold for library purposes for the Atherton Library, until the amount of Excess Funds retained by the Library JPA equals the advancement amount. It is anticipated that the amount will be repaid at the end of fiscal year 2025-26. The fund had $298,912 in expenditures for Library in operations.

General Fund Budgetary Highlights
During the year, the revenue budget increased by a total of $1,439,911 at mid-year. The following are the main components of the net increase:
• $181,900 higher secured and unsecured property tax
• $333,605 higher ERAF revenue.
• $184,493 decrease in Property Tax in Lieu VLF
• $88,000 higher total sales tax
• $107,000 increase in planning revenue
• $442,000 increase in building revenue
• $276,000 higher total police revenue
• $25,000 higher public works revenue
• $133,000 decrease in park program revenue
• $303,899 increase in miscellaneous revenue
During the year there was also a $365,000 increase in appropriations between the original and final amended budget. The following are the main components of the increase:
• $243,000 increase in the building department expenditures for building services contract. This was due to projected growth in building revenue as the contract is based on building revenue. • $47,000 increase in the Inter-department for additional appropriations to maintain IT services support back to full onsite days. Due to the complexity of Town systems, required services, and networks support is required to maintain needs and Police Department projects, • $55,000 increase for police department operations for overtime. In prior years, the Department has been able to use funds from regular budgeted salaries since the Department was not fully staffed but maintained a budget for approved staffing levels. The Department overtime applies to a large portion to backfill to maintain the 2 +1 staffing model for each shift. Backfill is mainly attributed to filling in for sick time, required training, and other related absences such as vacation. 12

• $20,000 increase for public works operations appropriation. The Town no longer had a Park Event Service management contract, and additional funds were needed to engage a part-time temporary employee to manage events at the park. The department released an RFP for Event Management Services.

Capital Assets and Debt Administration

Long-term debt. On June 1, 2020, the Town entered into Lease Agreements with the Public Property Financing Corporation of California, with assignment of the agreement to Capital One Public Financing for lease financing of $7,680,000. This was cash flow lease financing for construction of the Town Center project. It is a ten (10) year financing with a five (5) year call option. The Town has made its fourth-yearly lease payments in the amount of $3,423,543 of which includes $2,860,156 toward principle. In June 2025 the Town has a call option to pay off the remaining balance of the lease financing. It is anticipated that the option will not be exercised. The Town is part of a Workers’ Compensation self-insurance risk pool with The Cities Group Joint Powers Authority. Over the years the Town has had assessments to cover the negative workers’ compensation reserve. This was due to existing liability claims against the Town’s equity reserve. In FY 2023-24 the Town did not have to replenish the Workers’ Compensation Equity Reserve. The equity reserve amount was held at $151,000. During the previous year there was an appropriation of $62,325 for replenishment of the Workers’ Compensation Equity Reserve for 2022. This amount came from the Workers Compensation Fund residual balance. It is expected replenishment of any future depleted reserves will come from the Workers Compensation fund. Over the past several years there has been a build-up of net assets in the fund to mitigate the depletion of the reserves and possibly offset any future additional assessments from Cities Group workers’ compensation JPA. 13

In Fiscal Year 2014-15, GASB 68 and 71 were implemented for Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions.

This established standards for measuring and recognizing liabilities, deferred outflows of resources, and deferred inflows of resources, and expense/expenditures. The net pension liability increased $1,150,121 over last fiscal year. As of FY 2023-24, the Town of Atherton reports a net pension liability of $19,018,949 and is as follows:

Miscellaneous Employee Plan: $6,793,214
Safety Employees Plan: $12,225,735
The Town reported a deferred outflow of resources of $9,211,764 and deferred inflow of resources $3,389,109.

In Fiscal Year 2017-18, GASB 74 and 75 were implemented for the Accounting and Financial Reporting for Postemployment Benefits Other than pensions. This establishes accounting and financial reporting requirements for governments whose employees are provided with OPEB benefits. It also includes requirements similar to pension reporting to address financial reporting for assets accumulated for the purpose of providing OPEB benefits. As of FY 2023-24, the Town of Atherton reports a net OPEB asset of $510,276. This is an increase of $83,344 over last fiscal year. The Town just completed its GASB 78 OPEB Actuarial Report refresh as of June 30, 2024. The increase is due to other assumption changes based on Town service, discount rate, higher investment rate of return, growth, and health care trends.

The Town reported a deferred outflow of resources of $1,013,143 and inflow of resources $1,853,423 for OPEB.

Additional information on the Town of Atherton’s outstanding debt can be found in note 7 and note 8 on page 60- 71 of this report.

Economic Factors and Next Year’s Budgets. Property taxes are still the major revenue source for the Town and comprise 71% of the General Fund revenues. General Fund Property Taxes increased 2.4% to $16,509,528 from the previous year of $16,116,493. The property taxes show only a slight increase because of the occurrence of Property Tax VLF shortfall of $704,674. If the Town received its full VLF revenue, then the total property increase would be 6.8% to $17,214,202. This is an indication that there were new property sales and value growth within the town, and the importance of the protection of local property tax VLF is to the Town. The VLF shortfall is a State issue of insufficient funding in non-basic aid school districts and the failure of the State to backfill these local taxes.

The Town’s property tax consultant HdL projects that there will be a slight decrease in growth due to a reduction in median sales prices and as fewer homes are for sale. According to HdL, tax revenue is anticipated to level out at 4% to 5% over the next couple of years. Property value increases could be at the maximum 2% CPI; however the high value home prices change of ownership and construction activity on limited inventory in the Town will carry the majority of the increase in property tax revenue in the coming years.

As of FY 2024-25, the Town experienced a Net Taxable Assessed Value increase of 6.50% for a total value of $16.38 Billion. Expectations for FY 2024-25 property tax revenues should show a conservative growth of 4.5% as the housing market prices decrease and home sales trend downward. Interest rates are still high and fewer properties are being offered for sale, HDL Property Tax consultant suggests the Town in future years will be on the conservative assumption on property tax increases ranging from 4.0% to 5.5%. Other General Fund revenues for FY 2024-25 include conservative revenue assumptions and changes in the economy due to increased interest rates. It is important to note the Town’s main source of revenue comes from property taxes. New construction and transfer sales of existing homes drive this increase. The median housing prices decreased by a negative 21.72% from the previous year to $6,548,500. Most other General Fund revenues include conservative revenue assumptions and reflect current market assumptions.
14

For the current budget, financial assumptions include an increase in property tax revenue projections of approximately 4.5 percent. Revenue from activities in the Building, Planning and Public Works Departments comprise the majority of fee revenue for the Town. The recent completion of the user fee study in twelve years led to a recent increase in the Town fee schedule. Most fees were set at cost recovery. The revenue from Building, Planning and Public Works fees are projected to increase. These revenues are based on the current trend of building activity for residential improvements and new construction. Staff believes residential improvements and razing of homes will continue as housing inventory is limited. All other revenue sources are budgeted between

1.5% to 3% percent. Franchise fees are budgeted at 2% percent based on FY 2024-25 levels. Starting in 2025, the refuse franchise fees were reduced from 10% to 5% to support the ratepayer impact of the annual rate adjustments for refuse and thus will remain in effect until otherwise amended. We continue to monitor other Town revenues as we look to get back to normal pre-pandemic levels.

The Town focus is toward priority capital projects needs in the community. The Town received $2,771,578 in ERAF for the Fiscal Year. This was an increase of $271,578 from FY 2022-23. ERAF was earmarked in the FY 2024-25 budget as a contribution toward additional allocation for the Town Capital Improvement Projects. With new State guidelines issued to determine a school districts ERAF entitlement, the Town is conservatively setting ERAF at $2.5 million as ERAF remains under threat at the State level. ERAF is considered a vital revenue component for the use on one-time capital projects, reduction of any long-term liabilities, and Town CIP projects and programs. The current use of ERAF is for debt service payments for leaseback financing, long term liabilities, and toward Town capital projects.

The Town’s General Fund operating budget presents a plan for accomplishing the priorities of the City Council within existing resources and core strategy of financial stability in mind. The FY 2024/25 Operating Budget reflects a positive outlook. With the completion of the Holbrook Palmer Park Access and Circulation plan, the new focus is shifting to park playground improvements and park playground restrooms replacement and other capital infrastructure needs from Town Master Plans. The Town continues to implement current City Council goals and priorities focused upon reducing long-term liabilities, addressing capital project needs, and ensuring that operational needs are met. The Town is heavily reliant on property taxes. There is no certainty that the growth will continue at the same pace in recent years, especially with the increase in interest rates. The Town continues to explore revenue alternatives to the General Fund. We continue to keep our expenditures in line with our revenues and carefully review our selections for programs and priorities, closely monitoring and controlling any discretionary spending. The Town has a tax-exempt lease for cash flow construction financing of the Town Center project. A key characteristic of a tax-exempt lease is a fiscal funding requirement where payments of the lease are dependent upon an annual appropriation by the governing body. This requires that future revenues to the Town be appropriated via installment payments on the debt on an annual basis. The COP amount was $7.68 Million, resulting in an estimated annual debt service for FY 2023-24 of $860,671 and is budgeted for FY 2024-25.

The General Fund continues to provide new funding capacity in the next several years for project priorities within the CIP Master Plans. Priority projects are derived from the Bicycle Pedestrian Master Plan, Drainage Master Plan, Green Infrastructure Plan, and Road Improvement Plan. The CIP program includes a $4.45 million allocation of unallocated General Fund reserves as priority focus is to various Town master plan projects. This year’s CIP recommends new appropriations of approximately $7.35 million. The five largest single expenditures in the CIP include the Park plan improvements at $2.05 million, Traffic Safety Improvement projects $.6 Million, Drainage improvements $2.79 Million, and $1.455 Million Road Maintenance Program, and $.275 Million for Bike & Pedestrian Improvements. This was a result of a review of our Financial Planning Model as we discussed our out year saving and spending plans based on Council priorities for the Unallocated General Fund Balance. The process helps in setting aside funding for paying down long-term pension liabilities, other one-time needs, and capital improvement master plans. The Town will maintain its annual street maintenance, Neighborhood Traffic Management Action plans, work on Park Master Plan, continue to identify bike pedestrian and drainage maintenance projects. As we continue to review the out-year financial planning, the priorities for use of the Unallocated General Fund Balance will be determined.
15

During the current fiscal year there has been CIP focus on – • Annual Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation program;
• Green Infrastructure- minor projects;
• Traffic Safety Improvements;
• Bike Pedestrian and identify Drainage projects;
Neighborhood Traffic Management plan; and
• Holbrook Palmer Park Playground and other park areas; The CIP program serves as a guide in prioritizing community needs through the identification of funding and projects that will be a major focus in the next 5 years. We continue to work on fostering partnerships with other agencies in fulfilling infrastructure needs. Traffic safety improvements are a priority as the Alameda de las Pulgas Traffic and Safety Improvements project is currently in the conceptual design phase. These are through grant funding. The El Camino Real Complete Streets Gap Closure Project planning study is underway and is anticipated to be completed in FY 2024/25. There will be an update to the Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan.

Drainage improvements are another priority as upcoming projects include the Atherton Channel Assessment and Relining Upstream of Alameda de las Pulgas design and construction. There is the El Camino Real Long Term Drainage improvement solutions conceptual design, and Atherton Channel culvert and detention system improvements initiation of design. The Town continues its annual Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation program and strives to meet the maintenance of effort of SB1 street monies. The Town is also working on implementing minor projects from its Green Infrastructure plan mandate.

Paying down long-term liabilities is important to the Town’s fiscal stability. During fiscal year 2023-24 the Town did not make any additional contributions to the OPEB trust to satisfy the minimum annual required contribution for future OPEB liabilities. Total Town contribution to the Trust over the years totals $5,825,270. as of June 30, 2024. Beginning March 2023, the Town began paying the retiree health expenses entirely from the PARS Trust.

The balance in the PARS Trust as of June 30, 2024 is $8,668,925. The Town maintains a Net OPEB Asset of $510,276.

CalPERS requires agencies to pay for their Unfunded Accrued Liabilities (UAL) as dollar amounts rather than a percentage of payroll. This was implemented to recover gains and losses of funded status of plans. Every fiscal year, CalPERS invoices municipalities for the unfunded portion of their liabilities. The Town paid $431,925 for Miscellaneous Employees and $791,076 for Public Safety, for a total of $1,223,001 for the PERS unfunded accrued liability portion for FY 2023-24. The anticipated Town UAL portion for FY 2024-25 is $1,000,841 for public safety and $518,728 for miscellaneous employees. The Town net pension liability is recorded and is based on contributions and investment earnings on the plan. The Town pension liability increased by $1,150,121. The CalPERS board implemented changes to the discount rates, with the discount rate being reduced to 7.375% beginning in FY 2018/19, then to 7.25% in FY 2019/20, 7.0% in FY 2020/21 and 6.8% in FY 2022/23. The CalPERS Board went through its Asset Liability Management (ALM) review in calendar year 2021. The review included the discussion of portfolios with discount rates, adoption of new actuarial assumptions, and strategic asset allocation. The ALM process coincided with an exceptional year of investment returns. The CalPERS investment returns for FY 20/21 were 21.3%. The double-digit return triggered the CalPERS Funding Risk Mitigation Policy. This policy reduces funding risk only after a great investment year. The 21.3% investment return fell within an additional investment return threshold required for a reduction in the discount rate. In November 2021, the CalPERS board reduced the discount rate to 6.8% and set it as the new baseline rate beginning July 2022. It was discussed that agency plans will likely see increases in both the normal costs and the accrued liabilities, resulting in higher required employer contributions. Analysis on future costs will continue to be a focus as we intend to meet long-term obligations and Town operating expenditures. The CalPERS investment returns for FY 2023/24 ending June 30, 2024, was 9.5%. The previous fiscal year had a 6.2% return on investment. This return of 6.2% in FY 2022/23 is reflective in the contribution rates and UAL for FY 2025/26. It is important to note that the investment returns for FY 2023/24 will be reflected in the June 30, 2024 actuarial valuation reports. Any gains and losses will impact employer contribution rates for public agencies in FY 2026/27. The CalPERS actuarial reports produce the incoming fiscal year’s rates and UAL amounts, as well provides a projection for the second fiscal year as rates of return are factored in each year. Public Employees Retirement Fund (PERF) rates of return are reflective in CalPERS actuary reports two years after occurrence. 16
