October 31, 2023
Honorable Mayor, City Council, City Manager and Citizens of Bakersfield:
I am once again pleased to present the City of Bakersfield's ( the “City”) Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the year ended June 30, 2022 as required by City’s Municipal Code which states that a complete financial statement and report be prepared at the end of each fiscal year (Section 2.08.020F).
Bakersfield’s Finance Department prepared the report and assumed responsibility for both the accuracy of the data, its completeness and the fairness of the presentation which includes all disclosures. Because the cost of fiscal internal controls should not exceed anticipated benefits, the objective is to provide reasonable, rather than absolute assurance that the financial statements are free of any material misstatements. To the best my knowledge and belief, the enclosed data is accurate in all material aspects and is reported in a manner that presents fairly the financial position and results of operations of the City.
The accompanying financial statements of the City have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB).
Brown Armstrong Accountancy Corporation, a firm of licensed certified public accountants, performed the annual independent audit. The goal of the audit was to provide reasonable assurance that the basic financial statements of the City are free of material misstatement. The independent auditor concluded, based upon the audit, that the City’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, are fairly stated in conformity with GAAP.
The independent audit of the financial statements of the City is part of a broader financial review that is supplemented by the federally mandated “Single Audit.” This separate review is designed to meet the special needs of federal grantor agencies. The standards governing Single Audit engagements require the independent auditor to report not only on the fair representation of the financial statements, but also on the audited government’s internal controls and compliance with legal requirements, with special emphasis on internal controls and legal requirements involving the administration of federal awards.
These reports are available in the City’s separately issued Single Audit Report and may be obtained from the City’s website.
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 A nalysis (MD&A). This letter of transmittal is designed to complement the MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it. The City of Bakersfield’s MD&A c an be found immediately following the report of the independent auditors, beginning on page 4 of the financial section.

GENERAL BACKGROUND
The City is located approximately one hundred miles north of Los Angeles in the southern San Joaquin Valley. The City is the County seat for the County of Kern and maintains an incorporated area of 151 square miles with an estimated population of 407,491 as of January 1, 2022. Bakersfield operates under the Council-Manager form of government. Policymaking and legislative authority are vested in the City Council, which consists of a Mayor and a seven-member Council. The City Council is responsible for passing the ordinances and operating resolutions, passing the annual budget, appointing commissions and committees, and hiring the City Manager, and City Attorney, as well as many other related duties.
The City of Bakersfield is a Charter City founded in 1898 that offers a full range of services including:
• Fire and Police Protection
• Streets and Infrastructure Maintenance
• Planning and Building Services
• Economic and Community Development Services
• Parks and Recreation Services
• River & Agricultural Water and Domestic Water Services • Municipal Airpark - General Aviation
• Refuse Collection
• Wastewater Treatment
This report includes the financial activities of the City and the Bakersfield Successor Agency. A more detailed discussion of the reporting entity is provided in the notes to the financial statements.
MAJOR INITIATIVES
The Thomas Roads Improvement Program (TRIP) is nearing its final phases of the major construction projects funded though there are additional projects designed but are waiting for new funding for construction. The TRIP program uses a combination of local funds, Transportation Impact Fees, and State and Federal road grants, which includes approximately $570 million of Federal earmark funds approved by Congress in 2005. As o f June 30, 2022, the City had two remaining major TRIP projects under construction during the fiscal year including the Centennial Corridor Mainline Freeway ($59.5) Million Budget) and the Centennial Corridor Freeway Connector ($13.2 Million Budget). In addition to current projects under construction, property acquisition and design has begun on the Hageman Flyover segment of the TRIP projects. Supplemental grant awards at both the State and Federal level have resulted in these major projects under construction in the TRIP program to be fully funded, requiring no additional financing or borrowing.
The City of Bakersfield recognized the severe impact of homelessness on the community and undertook several programs and projects designed to address the issues it creates. The landmark homeless project undertaken by the City is the Brundage Lane Navigation Center which opened early in October 2020 and is now providing bridge housing for over 250 unhoused individuals in the area. Last year the facility served more than 780 individuals and found permanent housing for 99 people. Since it opened more than 1,161 unduplicated clients have stayed there and over 140 of those individuals have moved to permanent housing. In addition to this endeavor, the City has established rapid response teams in both the Development Services and Recreations and Parks departments to clean up homeless encampments and address other negative impacts caused by that population. The number of employees assigned to these important teams has increased each year since being established in 2019. The City also continues to fund private clean-up services in the Downtown and Old Town Kern areas of the City.
The City continues to move forward with initiatives to improve financial infrastructure and long-term planning. In the current year, the City began the implementation phase to replace the current Enterprise v
Resource Planning (ERP) software. The existing legacy system was implemented in the mid-1990’s and has passed its useful life. Modern systems would build more efficient operations across all City departments.
The City Council has approved the funding for this project which is expected to be complete in the next 12 months.
FACTORS AFFECTING FINANCIAL CONDITION
Local Economy and Local Budget Issues – The City of Bakersfield is glad to see the impacts of COVID-19 begin to fade in the rearview mirror but with that said, the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds awarded to the City in 2021 continue to provide benefits to the community. These funds have allowed local governments like Bakersfield to assist the community negatively impacted by the pandemic, fund economic redevelopment, and supplement City operations. The period of availability for ARPA d ollars continues into fiscal year 2024-25 so that stimulus has the potential to backfill some revenues for the City over the next three years.
Property tax revenues grew by 4% in fiscal year 2021-22 and are estimated to increase by an additional
6.6% in fiscal year 2022-23. These tax revenues face some uncertainty as higher interest rates over the last year and next slowing growth in the local housing market. In addition, the State and Federal government’s desire to reduce the economy’s reliance on fossil fuels can negatively impact the local job and housing markets. In 2018, the citizens of Bakersfield approved a new 1% transaction and use tax called the Public Safety and Vital Services ( PSVS) and this newer tax revenue stream has had tremendous positive impacts to the community by adding as estimated $100 million each year. The PSVS funds are budgeted and accounted for separately within a sub-fund of the General Fund and have a special oversight committee made up of nine City residents. It should be noted that the PSVS revenue stream is primarily earmarked for the fulfilling the thirteen established priorities mentioned previously but the City Council can use portions of that sales tax revenue to address economic instability. Like the PSVS tax, the standard Bradley-Burns 1% sales tax has been a steady revenue source for the City but like the PSVS funds, with double digit growth over the last two years. That growth is expected to level off in the upcoming year though and both sales tax sources are expected to be basic flat, with little growth from the prior year.
The City Council adopted Resolution 91-19 on June 28, 2019 to create a more substantial reserve to help mitigate potential financial downturns as well as create potential avenues to address the increasing concern regarding the growing unfunded pension liabilities. This resolution created a five-year plan that would increase the General Fund reserve equal to two months of operational costs, increase the facility replacement reserve, and begin to fund a Section 115 Pension Rate Stabilization Fund. The positive sales tax revenue receipts from the last three years allowed the City to meet that planned two-month operational reserve, establishing the rainy-day reserve balance at the end of the 2020-21 fiscal year and currently sits at over $52 million. The Council continued to fund the City’s Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) costs for retiree medical benefits, maintaining the City of Bakersfield’s position as one of the few entities in California that are making serious progress toward fully funding this long-term obligation.
Retirement costs will continue to escalate for all employee groups and over the next several years are expected to increase by a total of over $30 million by fiscal year 2027-28. Actual CalPERS earnings over the past five years have been 8.6%, 6.7%, 4.7% and 21.3% (-6.1%) respectively. The 21.3% earnings experienced in 2020-21 (14% over the discount rate) prompted CalPERS to reduce the discount rate to
6.8%. This action was required by the State system’s policy that is meant to smooth out the positive effects of the plan’s performance over the subsequent years without which participants would see significant swings in contribution rates. CalPERS estimates the impact of the changes will still create some positive impacts on City pension costs. The loss experienced the very next year will actually generate more of a negative impact on pension costs than the prior year gain positively impacted costs, Analysis shows that the combined effect is an over $52 million net funding loss. vi
Accounting System and Internal Controls - The City's accounting system is organized and operated on a fund basis with each fund treated as a distinct self-balancing accounting entity. Various funds utilized by the City of Bakersfield are fully described in Note 1 of Notes to the Financial Statements. T he City's accounting records for general governmental operations are maintained on a modified accrual basis of accounting, whereby revenues are recognized when measurable and available and expenditures are recognized when materials and services are received. Accounting records for the enterprise and internal service funds are recorded on an accrual basis of accounting, whereby revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recognized when incurred.
In developing and evaluating the City's accounting system, consideration is given to the adequacy of internal accounting controls. Internal accounting controls are designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance regarding: (1) the safeguarding of assets against loss from unauthorized use or disposition and (2) the reliability of financial records for preparing financial statements and maintaining accountability for assets. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that: (a) the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived and (b) the evaluation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management.
All internal control evaluations occur within the framework described previously. The City's Finance department believes that these internal accounting controls adequately safeguard assets and provide reasonable assurance of proper recording of financial transactions. However, the City recognizes that even sound internal controls have inherent limitations. Internal controls must be reviewed to ensure that the City’s operating policies and procedures are being adhered to and that the controls are adequate to assure accurate and reliable financial reporting and to safeguard the City’s assets.
Budgetary Controls - T he objective of these budgetary controls is to ensure compliance with legal provisions embodied in the annual appropriated budget approved by the City Council. Project length financial plans are adopted for the capital projects funds. The level of budgetary control is established at the fund level. The City also maintains an encumbrance accounting system as one technique of accomplishing budgetary control. Unencumbered amounts lapse at year-end. However, encumbrances and certain capital projects are re-appropriated as part of the following year's budget. The 2019-20 City of Bakersfield appropriation limit established as required by state statute was $429,959,287.
Cash Management - The City maintains a cash and investment pool that is available for use by all funds, except the Fire Pension Trust Fund. Each fund type's portion of this pool is displayed on the combined balance sheet as cash and short-term investments. The deposits and investments of the Fire Pension Trust Fund are held separately from other City funds.
The City Council has adopted an investment policy in accordance with California Government Code Sections 53607 and 53646, with a goal to minimize credit and market risks while maintaining a competitive yield on its portfolio. The City is also governed by State statutes authorizing the City to invest in bonds or other evidences of indebtedness of the U.S. Government or any of its agencies and instrumentalities, repurchase agreements and bankers’ acceptances. The pension trust investments are administered separately under Municipal Code Section 2.92, which is within state guidelines.
OTHER INFORMATION
Independent Audit - T he City Charter requires an annual audit by independent certified public accountants. The accounting firm of Brown Armstrong Accountancy Corporation was selected by the City Council in 2022 to perform the audit for a single year with the intent of issuing a multi-year award for the 2022-23 audit.
Awards - T he Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City of Bakersfield for its Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, marking the 41st vii
consecutive year Bakersfield has received the GFOA c ertificate. T he Certificate of Achievement is a national award recognizing conformance with the highest standards for preparation of state and local government financial reports.
A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We believe our current report continues to conform to Certificate of Achievement Program requirements and we are submitting it to GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate.
Additionally, the City received the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2022 from the GFOA. The Distinguished Budget Presentation Award judges a government's budget document for compliance with the guidelines established by the National Advisory Council on State and Local Budgeting and best practices of the GFOA.
Acknowledgments - T he preparation of this report in a timely manner could not have been accomplished without the excellent work performed by the entire staff of the Finance Department. I should like to express my appreciation to the members of this Department who assisted and contributed to its preparation. I would also like to thank the Mayor, City Council, and the City Manager for their continued support in planning and conducting the financial operations of the City in a professional and insightful manner.
Respectfully,
Randy McKeegan

This discussion and analysis of the City of Bakersfield’s (City) financial performance provides an overview of the City’s financial activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. We encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with the accompanying letter of transmittal, the basic financial statements, and the accompanying notes to those financial statements.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The assets and deferred outflows of resources of the City exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources at the close of the most recent fiscal year by $2.2 billion (net position). The City’s total net position increased by $80.9 million over the prior fiscal year. This increase is broken down with changes to the following components of net position; a $6.3 m illion increase i n restricted net position, a $13.2 million increase i n unrestricted net position, and a $24.6 million decrease in capital assets investment. Prior year information presented in this section does not take into account restatements made to fiscal year 2020-21 balances for prior period adjustments (see Note 23).
As of the close of the current fiscal year, the City's Governmental Funds reported combined ending fund balances of $345.4 million, an increase o f $25.9 million in comparison with the prior year. Amounts available for spending include restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned fund balances.

Available fund balance for the General Fund increased $2.4 million to $128.4 million, which equates to 44.5% of total General Fund expenditures for the year.
The City's long-term debt showed a decrease of $13.0 million during the current fiscal year.
Note: Further analysis of the changes and balances highlighted can be found in detail provided in this section. 5 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Management's Discussion and Analysis
OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The City's basic financial statements are comprised of three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the financial statements. T his report also contains other 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 City’s finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business. T he statements present the financial picture of the City from the economic resources measurement focus using the accrual basis of accounting. They present governmental activities and business-type activities separately. Additionally, certain eliminations have occurred as prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) statements in regards to interfund activity, payables and receivables.
The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities provide information about the City as a whole and its activities through the fiscal year. These statements include all assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources of the City using the accrual basis of accounting, which is similar to the accounting used by most private-sector companies. All of the current year's revenues and expenses are taken into account, regardless of when cash is received or paid.
These two statements report the City's net position and changes in it. Net position is the difference between assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources providing a measurement of the City's financial health. Over time, increases or decreases in the City's net position can be an indicator of whether its overall financial health is improving or deteriorating. Other factors to consider are changes in the City's property tax base and sales tax base. The government-wide financial statements do not include the fiduciary funds, which comprise the private purpose trust funds, pension trust funds, and agency funds. Resources in the fiduciary funds are generally not available to support the City’s own programs.
In the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities, the City's activities are separated as follows:
Governmental activities - T he majority of the City's basic services are reported in this category, including the General Government, Police, Fire, Public Works, Recreation & Parks and Development Services. These activities are generally financed by property and sales taxes, user fees, interest income, franchise fees, and state and federal shared revenues and grants.
Business-Type activities - The City charges a fee to customers to cover all or most of the cost of certain services it provides.
The City's Water, Wastewater, and Refuse Collection systems along with the Municipal Airport and Offstreet Parking activities are reported in this category.
FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
A fund is a specific grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities and objectives. Like other state and local government, the fund financial statements provide detailed information about the most significant funds, not the City as a whole. Some funds are required to be established by State law and by bond covenants. Management establishes many other funds to help control and manage financial resources for particular purposes, or to show that the City is meeting legal responsibilities when using certain taxes, grants, and other revenue.
These financial statements include statements for each of three categories of activities – governmental, proprietary and fiduciary. T he governmental activities are prepared using the current financial resources measurement focus and modified accrual basis of accounting. The proprietary activities are prepared using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. The fiduciary activities are agency funds that also use the economic resources measurement focus but only report a balance sheet. R econciliation of the Governmental Fund Financial Statements to the Government-Wide 6 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Management's Discussion and Analysis
Financial Statements are provided to explain the differences created by the integrated approach.
Governmental Funds - M ost of the City's basic services are reported in governmental funds, which focus on the flow of resources into and out of those funds with the balances remaining at year-end available for appropriation. These funds are reported using the modified accrual basis of accounting, which measures cash and all other financial assets that can readily be converted to cash. The Governmental Fund financial statements focus on near-term inflow and outflow 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 financial requirements. The differences of results in the Governmental Fund financial statements to those in the Government-Wide financial statements are explained in a reconciliation schedule following the Governmental Fund financial statement in order to facilitate comparison.
Proprietary Funds - Proprietary Funds are used to report services the City charges to all of its customers, which may include units within the City. Proprietary Funds are reported in the same way that all activities are reported in the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities. The City's Enterprise Funds report the same functions as the business-type activities reported in the Government-Wide financial statements, but provide more detail and additional information, such as cash flows.
The City uses Internal Service Funds (the second component of Proprietary Funds) to report activities that provide supplies and services for the City's other programs and activities. This includes the City's Self-Insurance and Equipment Management Funds.
These services primarily benefit governmental rather that business-type functions so a majority of the related operation costs are included with the governmental activities in the Government-Wide financial statements.
Fiduciary Funds - T he City is the trustee, or fiduciary, for certain funds held on behalf of various third parties. The City's fiduciary activities are reported in separate Statements of Fiduciary Net Position. These resources are not available to support the City's programs or operations activities and are thereby excluded from the City's other financial statements. The City is responsible for ensuring that the assets reported in these funds are used for their intended purposes.
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The notes to the financial statements provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the Government-Wide and Fund financial statements. The notes can be found starting on page 49 of this report.
OTHER INFORMATION
In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents certain “Required Supplementary Information” concerning the City's progress in funding its obligation to provide pension benefits and other post-employment benefits (OPEB) to its employees and budgetary comparison schedules for the General Fund and Special Revenue Major Funds.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
As previously noted, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government’s financial position. In the current year, the City's assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded liabilities and deferred inflows of resources by $2.2 billion at the close of the reporting period, which is a $80.9 million increase in comparison with the prior year (after restatements).
The largest portion of the City’s net position relates to its net investment in capital assets of $2.1 billion (e.g., land, buildings, machinery, infrastructure and equipment), less any related debt used to acquire those assets that is still outstanding. T hese capital assets are used to provide services to citizens; as such, the assets are not available for future expenditures. The City’s investment in capital assets is reported net of related debt, though it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources as the capital assets themselves cannot be used to service this debt.
A small portion of the City’s net position, $41.7 million (1.9% of the total), represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they may be used.
As in the prior year, the City is able to report positive balances in both categories of net position, whether for the City as a whole or for its separate Governmental and Business-type activities.
The following table presents the components of the government-wide Statement of Net Position at the end of the fiscal year for both 2021 a nd 2022. The governmental and business-type activities columns reflect amounts that have been restated in this financial report. Note 23 explains any prior period adjustments that changed net position.

Of the $42.3 million increase in governmental activities total net position, unrestricted net position increased by $19.5 million, 8 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Management's Discussion and Analysis
net investment in capital assets increased by $16.5 million and restricted net position increased by $6.3 million. Net investment in capital assets increased due to continued development throughout the City increasing the value of overall infrastructure. The increase in unrestricted net position stems from continued decreases in the other post-employment benefit liability along with a decrease in pension liabilities this year as a result of improved investment performance of the City's pension plan.. There were also increases in revenues, in relation to much smaller levels of increases in expenses across most departments, resulted in an increase in net position.
Business-Type Activities – Total assets for business-type activities decreased by $12.3 million, with current and other assets decreasing b y $11.1 million and a $1.2 million decrease in capital assets. T otal liabilities decreased by $30.3 million, with other liabilities decreasing by $2.7 million and long-term liabilities also decreasing by $27.6 million. T otal net position for business-type activities increased by $1.7 million. Of that amount, net investment in capital assets increased by $8.0 million.
Restricted net position remained constant and unrestricted net position decreased by $6.3 million. The overall increase in net position is the result of operations, specifically in Wastewater activities, and completed improvement projects in the Wastewater and, Refuse funds. As with governmental activities, there was a decrease in the net other post-employment benefit liability and the pension related liabilities that also played a part in the increased net position.
Change in Net Position of the City

The following graph displays the difference between the program revenue and expenses by activity to illustrate the amount each respective activity is supported by program revenues versus general revenue, which is almost exclusively taxes. The majority of the governmental activities of the City do not receive sufficient program revenues to cover their costs.
The activities that have the largest portion of their activities covered by tax revenue are Public Safety and Public Works whose service delivery costs exceeded program revenues by $159.7 million and $47.4 million, respectively. 10 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Management's Discussion and Analysis
Total expenses in Governmental Activities had a net increase of just $29.8 million from the previous fiscal year for an overall
7.1% increase. That increase is primarily due to increases in program activity for the Economic & Community Development department totaling $41.2 million. These programs utilized began in the prior year but have increases significantly with more funds being directed to fund affordable housing and encourage economic growth. There were increases other areas were Public Safety-Police which increased by $7.3 million and Public Works which increased by $5.2 million. These increases are primarily connected to the more programs initiated to meet the goals of the Public Safety and Vital Services (PSVS) district tax measure.
The funds were to be directed toward increases in staffing and services for police and fire, addressing homelessness in the community, increases in and increasing opportunities for economic development. A portion of these cost increases also related to increases to California Public Employees' Retirement System (CalPERS) rates in the current year. These increases were offset in part by a decrease in General Government costs totaling $17.3 million. That decrease is connected to the increase in the Economic & Community Development increase where portions of service programs were shifted to that department. 11 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Management's Discussion and Analysis
Taxes are the largest revenue source for governmental activities, which is the case for most municipal governments, amounting to $299.3 million or 56.5% of total revenues. Capital grants and contributions is also a significant revenue source for the City’s governmental activities, amounting to $90.1 million or 17.0% of total revenues. Grant revenue can be dependent on programs operations and reimbursable activities. The third largest source of revenue is charges for services which amounts to $67.8 million or 12.8% of total revenues.
Governmental Activities Revenues decreased $ 43.5 million which is a 7.6% decrease c ompared to the previous fiscal year.
This decrease is due primarily to a 58.6%, or $61.4 million, decrease in operating grant revenue related to the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) recognized as revenue in the prior year that were not received in the current year.
General Revenues - Sales tax revenues increased by 11.5%, or $20.7 million, while property taxes increased by 3.8%, or $3.6 million. The primary reason for this increase is from continued growth in sales taxes, in particular as consumer spending ramped up significantly after the recent pandemic. The increase in sales tax also was driven by historical levels of inflation which drove up prices during the fiscal year. Property tax increases are fairly stable with property values increasing .
Program Revenues - Capital Grants and Contributions decreased b y $1.9 m illion due to a fewer special projects funded in Public Works compared to the prior year. The most significant reduction is related to the Thomas Roads Improvement Program (TRIP) projects which included increases in activity related to construction and property acquisition when compared to the previous year. Operating Grants and Contributions decreased $ 61.4 m illion, which, as noted above related to the ARPA revenue recorded in the prior year for the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. 12 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Management's Discussion and Analysis
Business-Type Activities – T he City operates six Enterprise Funds that offer wastewater services, refuse collection, river & agricultural water, domestic water to City residents, downtown parking and a municipal airport.
Business-type activities increased the City’s net position by $8.2 million during the current year. The chart above compares total program revenues and expenses. As the graphic show, program revenues exceeded program expenses in Wastewater Treatment by $6.8 million and Refuse Collection by $8.1 million. While the Airpark and Offstreet Parking program revenues exceeded program expenses by a combined $216 thousand. These increases were offset slightly by program expenses exceeding program revenues in and Domestic Water by $1.5 million and River & Agricultural Water by $578 thousand. Total business- type expenses increased by $12.7 million (9.5%) over the prior year. That increase is not unexpected as inflationary pressures in the economy have resulted in increases of both materials, supplies and equipment, but has also increased labor costs and the related costs or employee benefits
The following chart illustrates the distribution of business-type revenues by category. The City’s business-type activities rely heavily on charges for services to fund their operations, making up 87.6% of total revenues. Capital grants and contributions is the second largest revenue source at 7.5% of total revenues. 13 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Management's Discussion and Analysis
Business-Type activities program revenues increased by $3.0 million, 1.9%, over the prior year. The increase relates back to the increases in operational costs noted previously which requires comparable increases to rates charged to customers. The increase can also be attributed to capital improvement projects in the Wastewater and Domestic Water funds in the amount of $5.6 million and $2.6 million, respectively. There was an increase in Refuse Collection service revenue of $3.7 million due to rate increases and additional residential service customers and decreases of $3.2 million in River & Agricultural Water revenue due to a large, one-time sale of water made in the prior year.
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE CITY’S FUNDS
As noted earlier, the City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements.
A fund is created and segregated for the purpose of carrying out specific activities or attaining specific objectives in accordance with special regulations, restrictions, or limitations. Activity not required to be reported in a separate fund is included in the General Fund.
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, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of the City’s available resources as it represents the portion of fund balance which is not limited to use for a particular purpose by an external party, City management or City Council.
As of the end of the current fiscal year, the City’s Governmental Funds reported combined ending fund balances of $345.4 million, an increase of $25.9 million in comparison with the prior year. The components of total fund balance are as follows (for more information see Note 14 – Fund Balances):
Nonspendable fund balance, $0.9 m illion, are amounts that are not spendable in form, or are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact, and are made up of prepaid expenses and deposits. 14 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Management's Discussion and Analysis
Restricted fund balance, $26.8 million, consists of amounts with constraints put on their use by external creditors, grantors, contributions, laws, regulations or enabling legislation. Examples of restrictions on funds are those for (1) $14.6 million for the purpose of the fund (i.e., Gas Tax and Road projects), (2) $ 2.6 million from the Redevelopment Successor Agency Housing Fund for projects and (3) $3.3 million for traffic safety projects. Committed fund balance, $184.4 million, are amounts for specific purposes determined by the Bakersfield City Council, such as funds collected from fees paid to mitigate the traffic impacts to the regional circulation system of $60.7 million, funds set aside for future city facilities and infrastructure project $4.0 million, funds set aside by City Council in the General Fund for cash basis/emergency reserves of $48.6 million and $31.8 million for appropriations for next year’s budget.
Assigned fund balance, $126.2 million, for funds set aside by management for specific purposes. Amounts include $85.3 million set aside for capital projects and $ 6.5 million for the fund purposes related to transient occupancy fees, and $31.8 million for PSVS fund balance. Those available funds are set aside for future projects that will meet the intended uses of those funds in accordance with the sales tax ballot measure. Unassigned fund balance, $7.2 million represents the residual classification for the City’s General Fund.
General Fund: The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the City. At the end of the current fiscal year, the General Fund’s total fund balance increased by 1.9%, or $2.4 million from $126.1 million to $128.4 million. The following detail of changes from the prior year explains this change in fund balance for the year:
Total operating revenues increased by $19.2 million (5.7%). Property Tax revenue increased by $3.6 million due to continuation of higher assessed values within the City limits. Sales Tax revenue had the most significant increase with a full fiscal year of receipts from the new PSVS district tax and improvements in the base (Bradley-Burns) portion resulting in an increase of $20.7 million. Both components of sales tax also saw an increase due to the previously mentioned increases in consumer spending, especially in the auto sales and general merchandise industries along with the Wayfair decision which added more sales tax revenue from online purchases. There was also a significant increase of charges for services related to interfund allocation of ARPA dollars to the General Fund to reimburse public safety costs. All other revenue sources within the General Fund remained fairly consistent compared to the previous fiscal year.
Total expenditures increased b y $37.8 million (a 15.1% increase). This was due to increases in the Public Safety costs in both Police and Fire expenditures related primarily to PSVS funded hiring along w ith filling some vacancies ($19.4 million and $3.6 million, respectively). Overall personnel expenditures also increased throughout all General Fund departments due to hiring related to PSVS programs and increases in pension costs.
Other governmental funds: As compared with the prior year, the total fund balances of the remaining governmental funds increased by 12.1%, or $23.5 million, to $217.0 million with the following significant changes:
The Gas Tax and Road Fund increased by $6.9 million from $7.7 million to $14.6 million. Amounts in this fund are restricted by state and federal statute. The increase in overall fund balance is connected to additional governmental revenue received that was not earmarked for current year project. Those funds are expected to be allocated in future years.
The Capital Outlay Fund balance increased by $32.4 million from $90.9 million to $123.4 million. Of this amount, $35.6 million is committed for contractual obligations and $1.7 million is committed for facility replacement. The remaining amount of $85.3 m illion is assigned and available for use at management’s discretion. The resulting increase shows that expenditures were in line with projected revenues (which included significant transfers from the PSVS fund for ongoing CIP projects).
The Park Improvement Fund increased by $1.2 million. Of this fund balance amount, the full amount of $9.2 million is committed for contractual obligations. The increase in fund balance is an accumulation of funds connected to future plans for expansion and improvement of area parks. 15 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Management's Discussion and Analysis
Proprietary Funds - The City’s Proprietary Funds are shown in their entirety in the government-wide financial statements. All funds are being reported as major funds, so there is no need to report additional detail elsewhere in the document.
The Wastewater Treatment Fund has total net position of $559.9 million at the end of the current year, an increase of $5.6 million over the prior year. Total net position includes $490.5 million net investment in capital assets and $20.2 million of restricted assets which are not available to cover current expenses. The remaining net position of $49.3 million is unrestricted and available to cover current operating and capital needs (including plant and equipment replacement) of the fund. The majority of the increase resulted from more development completed to infrastructure in the current year which was reflected in a $7.5 million addition in Capital Contributions. That change was offset by an operational loss brought about by inflationary drivers increasing operational costs and wages. There was also a reduction in connection fee revenue that played a factor in the overall loss. These fees are driven primarily by residential development within the City which has seen a reduction from previous years.
The Refuse Collection Fund has total net position of $5.5 million at the end of the current year, an increase of $6.2 million from the prior year. T he increase is due to more revenue collected from residential services/rates than is necessary to cover the operating costs of the division brought about by a rate increase that was approved to cover the growing cost of collection services, particularly with regards to recycling. This increase was in part related to changes in operational changes connected to losses in the prior year, which included increases in cost sharing for facilities that serve the County residences and higher collections for commercial customers.
The River and Agricultural Water Fund has total net position of $27.8 million at the end of the current year, a decrease of $1.2 million over the prior year. Total net position includes $20.2 million net investment in capital assets, which is not available to cover current expenses. The remaining net position of $7.6 million is unrestricted and available to cover current operating and capital needs of the fund. There have been larger operational losses in the prior year due to dryer years and less w ater available to sell to customers. While that revenue reduction in prior years has been rightsized, there were still inflationary driven increases to expenses that ultimately resulted in a loss in the fund.
The Domestic Water Fund has total net position of $ 271.3 million at the end of the current year, a decrease of $2.2 million over the prior year. Total net position includes $ 223.9 million net investment in capital assets, which is not available to cover current expenses. The remaining net position of $47.4 million is unrestricted and available to cover current operating and capital needs of the fund. The domestic water operations continue to operate within expected revenue but a review of rates charged to residents and businesses is needed to insure that revenues remain on track with expected escalations in costs. That increase is also related to the rise in operational costs that have affected costs throughout the City.
The General Aviation Fund has total net position of $11.5 m illion at the end of the current year, an increase o f $480,094 compared to the prior year. Total net position includes $10.6 million net investment in capital assets, which is not available to cover current expenses. The remaining net position is unrestricted and available to cover current operating and capital needs of the fund.
The Offstreet Parking Fund has total net position of $0.7 m illion at the end of the current year, a decrease o f $123,746 compared to the prior year. Total net position includes $0.7 million net investment in capital assets, which is not available to cover current expenses. The remaining net position is unrestricted and available to cover current operating and capital needs of the fund.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS
Differences between the original budget and the final amended budget reflect an increase in resources of $13.3 million and an increase in appropriations of $70.3 million. Significant budgetary amendments (changes) are summarized as follows:
$5.4 million increase in various resources and appropriations due to revenues associated with open purchase orders at the end of the previous fiscal year. Also, $6.7 million increase in various resources due to revenues associated with prior year appropriations not spent and carried forward to this fiscal year. $1.6 million was added to the budget for updated revenue estimates of PSVS district sales tax designated to address needs throughout Bakersfield including public safety, economic development and homelessness. $28.8 million increase in appropriations for PSVS tax revenue that was determined to be available for operational programs and capital projects approved by the City Council at mid-year. T hese included programs to address homelessness, public safety and park improvements.
The final amended revenue estimate budget figures in the General Fund were lower than actual revenue by $42.2 million and appropriations were higher than actual expenditures by $27.3 m illion. Significant differences between budget and actual amounts are as follows:
$41.6 million positive variance in tax revenue. This is the result of an increase in property tax revenue and sales and use tax revenue. Property tax revenue was initially estimated to increase while Sales tax revenue were not expected to increase at the level experienced. Projections for tax revenue were conservative in nature because of uncertainty throughout the year on the level and sustainability of economic recovery in the area. $3.0 million less than budgeted in intergovernmental revenue which is due primarily to this source of funds being based on reimbursement of expenditures incurred. Some of the project activity for these awards had not moved forward resulting in less revenue being recognized.
There was a $12.7 m illion variance of appropriations over actual expenditures in Economic & Community Development. The savings is due to major economic development service projects for businesses and members of the underserved community that were budgeted but not started. The majority of the other variances of appropriations over actual expenditures across the General Fund departments was from savings brought about primarily in salary and benefits from unfilled positions or positions filled later in the year.
19 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Management's Discussion and Analysis
ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR'S BUDGETS AND RATES
The key assumptions in the General Fund revenue forecast for fiscal year 2022-23 were:
1. Property tax revenue is projected to grow at 4% which is the same level as last year’s estimate as projected by Kern County.
2. Sales and use tax revenue is projected to show an increase of 3% in t he upcoming fiscal year which was a conservative estimate in light of the continued growth seen in this revenue source. The City will monitor the quarterly reports prepared by the State in conjunction with outside analysis of trends to understand if that revenue increase will be realized.
3. California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) experienced investment returns above the plan's established discount rate which has actually created a slight reduction in the Normal rates going into the next fiscal year. The unfunded portion of the retirement contribution still saw an increase so overall contributions went up for Miscellaneous and Fire, approximately 1.5% and 2.6% respectively. B ecause of the population make-up of the Police plan, rates for this group dropped by 3.5%. While the plan performance for the applicable year reduced the expected cost escalation, larger increases are projected for future fiscal years as plan performance has not been as positive in recent investment periods.
New items specifically addressed in the 2022-23 budget include the following:
Police Department – T he Police Department’s operating budget has increased from fiscal year 2021-22 by 13.6%, totaling $18.1 million. T his increase is primarily attributable to increased costs related to the PSVS plan to increase the number of officers and support staff in the department. Fiscal year 2022-23 is the fourth year of this staffing ramp up as the City continues to work to address crime and public safety challenges.
Fire Department – The Fire Department's operating budget had and increase of just under 8.9% from fiscal year 2021-22 totaling just $4.6 million. The increase is primarily due to cost of living increases for City staff and a slight rise in CalPERS rates.
Public Works - T he Public Works Department operating budget increased by $18.1 million, or 12.1%, from fiscal year 2021-22. The increase was also due to some additional staffing covered by the PSVS funds in addition to the CalPERS rate escalations as well as an increases in salaries & benefit costs.
Development Services – T he Development Services Department’s operating budget actually decreased from fiscal year 2021-22 b y 18.5%. T his decrease is due to a reduction in contracted services needed in the upcoming year which offset increases from cost of living increases for City staff and a slight rise in CalPERS rates.
Economic & Community Development – T he Economic & Community Development Department’s operating budget has increased from fiscal year 2021-22 b y 18.5%, totaling $4.1 million. T his increase is due to added funding for various community focused programs to address economic development along with increases in salaries & benefit costs.
Recreation and Parks – The Recreation and Parks Department’s operating budget has increased from fiscal year 2021-22 by
15.4%, totaling $4.2 million. The increase was due primarily to the rise in CalPERS rates as well as an increases in salaries & benefit costs. There as also the addition of a Park Ranger program in the upcoming budget year that attributed to the increase.

to the Government-Wide Statement of Net Position
June 30, 2022

Internal Service Funds are used by management to charge the costs of certain activities, such as insurance and fleet management, to individual funds. The assets and liabilities of the Internal Service Funds are included in governmental activities in the Government-Wide Statement of Net Position. 35,378,132

Reconciliation of the Governmental Funds Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances to the Government-Wide Statement of Activities For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2022
Net Change in Fund Balances - Total Governmental Funds $ 25,854,143 Amounts reported for Governmental Activities in the Statement of Activities are different because:
Governmental Funds report capital outlay as expenditures. However, in the Government-Wide Statement of Activities the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense.
Capital Outlay eliminated $ 18,615,618
Depreciation and amortization expense is deducted from fund balance (net of Internal Service Fund depreciation of $9,604,315 which has already been allocated to serviced funds). (64,898,041) Contributions of infrastructure and improvements by developers are capitalized in the Statement of Activities, but are not recorded in the Governmental Fund Financial Statements because no cash changed hands. 55,226,792 8,944,369
Certain expenses are reported in the Government-Wide Statement of Activities, but they do not require the use of current financial resources. Therefore, these expenses are not reported as expenditures in Governmental Funds.
Net compensated absences expense (1,416,957)
Interest expense on long-term debt 69,030
Net pension expense 29,416,738
Net other post-employment benefit expense 11,466,782 39,535,593 Bond and loan proceeds provide current financial resources to Governmental Funds, but issuing debt increases long-term liabilities in the Government-Wide Statement of Net Position. Repayment of bond principal is an expenditure in Governmental Funds, but the repayment reduces long-term liabilities in the Government-Wide Statement of Net Position. 3,014,363
Unearned revenue and other resources not available to liquidate liabilities of the current period are not recognized in the Governmental Funds. Revenue in the Statement of Activities is not limited by availability, so certain revenues need to be reduced by the amounts that were unavailable at the end of the year. This adjustment records a net decrease in revenues - unavailable revenues at the beginning of the year exceed ending unavailable revenues by this amount. (1,669,079) Internal Service Funds are used by management to charge the costs of certain activities, such as insurance and fleet management, to individual funds. The net revenue of the Internal Service Funds is reported with Governmental Activities. (2,916,909)
Change in Net Position of Governmental Activities $ 72,762,480 The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 34 Proprietary Fund Financial Statements
These funds account for operations (a) that are financed and operated in a m anner similar to private business enterprises where the intent of the governing body is that the costs (including depreciation) of providing goods or services to the general public on a continuing basis be financed or recovered primarily through user charges; or (b) where the governing body has decided that periodic determination of net income is appropriate for accountability purposes.
Wastewater Treatment Fund i s used to account for the provision of sewer service to the residents of the City and some residents of Kern County. This fund also accounts for the activities related to the debt issuance which provided for the Wastewater Treatment Facilities.
Refuse Collection Fund is used to account for the collection and disposal of refuse within the City. All activities necessary to provide such services are accounted for in this fund.
River & Agricultural Water Fund is used to account for the provision of water service restricted primarily for agricultural purposes to users within the City and some users within Kern County (some Kern River water is exchanged for State Aqueduct water for domestic water purposes). All activities necessary to provide such services are accounted for in this fund.
Domestic Water Fund is used to account for the provision of water service to some residents of the City and Kern County. All activities necessary to provide such service are accounted for in this fund.
General Aviation Fund i s used to account for the acquisition and operation of the Bakersfield Airpark. The majority of acquisition and improvement financing for the airport facility was provided by a grant from the Federal Aviation Administration.
Offstreet Parking Fund i s used to account for the operations of the parking garage at 18th and Eye Streets and various offstreet surface parking lots within the City. The parking garage was financed by the former Redevelopment Agency and the related debt was retired in August 1994. Subsequently, the title was transferred to the City.
Internal Service Funds are used to provide goods and services by one department or agency to other departments or agencies of the City on a cost reimbursement basis.

Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying financial statements of the City of Bakersfield (the “City”) have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP) as prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The follow ing summary of the City’s significant accounting policies is presented to assist the reader in interpreting the basic financial statements and other data in this report. These policies should be viewed as an integral part of the accompanying basic financial statements.
A. Description of Reporting Entity
The City of Bakersfield, California, is a California Charter City, incorporated on January 11, 1898, and serves as the county seat of the County of Kern, California (the “County”). The City is a full-service city and operates under a Council - Manager form of government, providing the following services as authorized by its Charter: General government; public safety; public works; and development and conservation.
As required by GAAP, these basic financial statements present the government and its component units, entities for which the government is considered to be financially accountable. 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.
B. Basis of Presentation
Government-Wide Financial Statements
The Government-Wide financial statements (the statement of net position and the statement of activities) report information of all of the non-fiduciary activities of the primary government and its component units. For the most part, eliminations have been made to minimize the double counting on internal activities. I nternal activities for services provided and used that are not eliminated include water, solid waste and sewer services provided to various other functions of the government. These statements distinguish between the governmental and business-type activities o f the City. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on fees charged to external parties.
The statement of activities presents a comparison between direct expenses and program revenues for each segment of the business-type activities of the City and for each function of the City’s governmental activities. Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated with a program or function and, therefore, are clearly identifiable to a particular function. Some functions include expenses that are, in essence, indirect expenses of other functions resulting from charges among funds or programs for centralized services. Program revenues include: 1) charges paid by the recipients of goods or services offered by the programs and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular program. Revenues that are not classified as program revenues, including all taxes, are presented instead as general revenues.
Net position is restricted when constraints placed on it are either externally imposed or are imposed by constitutional provisions or enabling legislation. Internally imposed designations of resources are not presented as restricted net position. When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, generally it is the City’s policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) B. Basis of Presentation (continued)
Fund Financial Statements
The fund financial statements provide information about the City’s funds, including fiduciary funds and the blended component units. Separate statements for each fund category - governmental, proprietary and fiduciary - are presented. The emphasis of fund financial statements is on major governmental and enterprise funds, each displayed in a separate column. All remaining governmental and enterprise funds are separately aggregated and reported as non-major funds.
Proprietary fund operating r evenues, such as charges for services, result from exchange transactions associated with the principal activity of the fund. E xchange transactions are those in which each party receives and gives up essentially equal values. Nonoperating revenues, such as subsidies and investment earnings, result from nonexchange transactions or ancillary activities. Operating expenses for enterprise funds and internal service funds include cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation of capital assets. A s used in this section, the term depreciation can include amortization of intangible assets. All expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating expenses.

Capital Outlay Fund - The Capital Outlay Fund is used to account for the cost of capital projects financed by local revenues and various grant/loan proceeds for capital expenditures. This fund also accounts for the special Utility Franchise/Surcharge Fund created by the City Council to account for the specified local road project costs funded by the selected electricity and gas franchise surcharge fees. In addition, funds contributed by the County to be used to cover a portion of the costs of the local match needed for the Thomas Roads projects are accounted for in this fund.
Park Improvement Fund - The Park Improvement Fund is used to account for funds collected for residential park development (Ordinance No. 3646). F ees are collected based on the development’s share of the cost to develop, improve, construct, or enhance a neighborhood park (Ordinance No. 3327).
Transportation Development Fund - T he Transportation Development Fund is used to account for funds collected from fees paid to mitigate the traffic impacts to the regional circulation system caused by a development project. The fees are paid w hen a building permit for the development project is obtained, and are based upon the amount of traffic the development will generate. The fee schedule was adopted with Ordinance No. 3513 and will be periodically evaluated by the City Council and revised to reflect updated costs and growth projections. 50 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD

bid deposits. This fund is also used for the collection of police seized property, local Law Enforcement Block Grants and other revenues held in trust pending disposition of contingencies. T he Improvement Districts Fund i s used to account for the collection of liens for improvements benefiting private properties and payments to the holders of bonds issued pursuant to the Improvement Bond Act of 1913 and the Improvement Bond Act of 1915. The City is in no way liable for the payment of bonded indebtedness, but the City serves as agent to collect the principal and interest installments from the owners of the benefited properties. A t rustee provides the periodic payment to the bondholders. This fund also accounts for the special assessments and taxes collected within the boundaries of Community Service Districts within the City.
C. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting
The government-wide, proprietary, private purpose trust, and pension and other employee benefit trust funds are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. R evenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred, regardless of when the related cash flows take place. Nonexchange transactions, in which the City gives (or receives) value without directly receiving (or giving) equal value in exchange, include property and sales taxes, grants, entitlements, and donations. On an accrual basis of accounting, revenue from property taxes is recognized in the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied. R evenues from sales tax are recognized when the underlying transactions take place. Revenues from grants, entitlements and donations are recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligible requirements have been satisfied. The custodial funds utilize the accrual basis of accounting to report assets and liabilities but technically have no measurement focus.
Governmental funds are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under this method, revenues are recognized when measurable and available. Property and sales taxes, interest, certain State and Federal grants and charges for services are accrued w hen their receipt occurs within sixty days after the end of the accounting period so as to be both measurable and available. E xpenditures are generally recorded when a liability is incurred, as under the accrual basis of accounting. H owever, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due. General capital assets acquisitions are reported as expenditures in governmental funds. Proceeds of general long-term debt and capital leases are reported as other financing sources.
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. O perating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary funds' principal ongoing operations. Revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating.
D. Assets, Liabilities, Net Position or Fund Balances, and Other Financial Statement Items Cash and Investments
Cash balances of each of the City's funds, except for certain Trust and Custodial Funds, are pooled and invested by the City.
Income earned from pooled investments is allocated to each of the funds based on average pooled cash balances during the year. Deficit cash balances are classified as due to other funds and funded by the General Fund or related operating fund.
The City applies GASB Statement No. 31, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Certain Investments and for External Investment Pools. This statement adheres to GASB reporting guidelines which generally requires that investments be reported at their fair value and that all changes in fair value be reflected as income of the period in which they occur.
Statutes authorize the City to invest in obligations of the United States Treasury, agencies and instrumentalities, commercial 52 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) D. Assets, Liabilities, Net Position or Fund Balances, and Other Financial Statement Items (continued) paper, bankers' acceptances, repurchase agreements, money market funds, and the State Treasurer's investment pool. The City's Pension Trust Fund is also authorized to invest in corporate bonds rated A or better by a national rating system generally recognized and used by banks and investment brokers in the United States.
Investments are comprised of obligations of the United States Treasury, agencies and instrumentalities, cash, time certificates of deposit, mutual funds, bankers' acceptances, money market accounts, deposits in the State of California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), and California Asset Management Program (CAMP). Investments are stated at fair value.
Interfund Transactions
Interfund transactions are reflected as either loans, services provided, reimbursements or transfers. L oans are reported as receivables and payables as appropriate, are subject to elimination upon consolidation and are referred to as either “due to/from other funds” (i.e., the current portion of interfund loans) or “advances to/from other funds” (i.e., the noncurrent portion of interfund loans). Any residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and the business-type activities are reported in the government-wide financial statement as “internal balances.” Advances between funds, as reported in the fund financial statements, are offset by a fund balance reserve account in applicable governmental funds to indicate that they are not available for appropriation and are not available financial resources.
Services provided, deemed to be at market or near market rates, are treated as revenues and expenditures/expenses.
Reimbursements are when one fund incurs a cost, charges the appropriate benefiting fund, and reduces its related cost as a reimbursement. All other interfund transactions are treated as transfers. Transfers between governmental or proprietary funds are netted as part of the reconciliation to the government-wide presentation.
Receivables
All trade and property tax receivables are shown net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts. Trade accounts receivable in excess of 180 days comprise the trade accounts receivable allowance for uncollectible accounts.
Inventory and Prepaid Items
Inventory is valued at average cost applied on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis. The reserve for prepaid expenses relates to certain payments to vendors for costs applicable to future accounting periods. The cost of both inventories and prepaid items are recorded as expenditures/expenses when consumed rather than when purchased.
Capital Assets
Capital outlays are recorded as expenditures of the General, Special Revenue, and Capital Projects Funds and as assets in the government-wide financial statements to the extent the City’s capitalization thresholds are met.
Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment, infrastructure assets (e.g., roads, bridges, sidewalks, and similar items), and intangible water rights are reported in the applicable governmental or business-type activities columns in the government-wide financial statements. Capital assets are defined by the government as assets with an estimated useful life in excess of one year and an initial individual cost of more than $50,000 for infrastructure and $5,000 for all other capital assets.
Such assets are recorded at historical cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated capital assets are recorded at acquisition value at the date of donation in the majority of instances. When assets are donated in relation to a service concession arrangement, they are reported at acquisition cost.
The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend assets' lives are not capitalized. Betterments and major improvements which significantly increase values, change capacities or extend useful lives are capitalized. Upon sale or retirement of capital assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations. 53 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) D. Assets, Liabilities, Net Position or Fund Balances, and Other Financial Statement Items (continued) Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed. I nterest incurred during the construction phase of capital assets of business-type activities is included as part of the capitalized value of the assets constructed.
Property, plant, and equipment of the primary government, as well as the component units, are depreciated using the straight- line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Infrastructure 10 to 70 years
Buildings, structures and improvements 5 to 40 years
Transmission and distribution equipment 5 to 50 years
Rolling equipment 2 to 30 years
Office equipment 3 to 10 years
Long-Term Obligations
In the government-wide financial statements, and proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, business-type activities, or proprietary fund type Statement of Net Position. Debt principal payments of both governmental and business-type activities are reported as decreases in the balance of the liability on the Statement of Net Position. B ond premiums and discounts are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the effective interest method.
In the fund financial statements, however, debt principal payments of governmental funds are recognized as expenditures when paid. Governmental fund types recognize bond premiums and discounts, as well as bond issuance costs, during the current period. T he face amount of debt issued is reported as other financing sources. P remiums received on debt issuances are reported as other financing sources while discounts on debt issuances are reported as other financing uses. I ssuance costs, whether or not withheld from the actual debt proceeds received, are reported as debt service expenditures.
Deferred Outflows and Inflows of Resources
The City records deferred outflows and inflows of resources in the government-wide, governmental, and proprietary fund type financial statements.
The Statements of Net Position and Balance Sheets will sometimes report a separate section for deferred outflow s of resources, defined as representing a consumption of net assets that applies to future periods, or deferred inflows of resources, defined as representing an acquisition of net assets that applies to future periods. The City has items that qualify for reporting in these categories and are detailed in a separate note disclosure. 54 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) D. Assets, Liabilities, Net Position or Fund Balances, and Other Financial Statement Items (continued) Net Position/Fund Balance
The government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements utilize a net position presentation. Net position is categorized as net investment in capital assets, restricted and unrestricted. Net Investment in Capital Assets - This category groups all capital assets, including infrastructure, into one component of net position. A ccumulated depreciation and the outstanding balances of debt that are attributable to the acquisition, construction or improvement of these assets reduce the balance in this category. Restricted Net Position - This category presents external restrictions imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, laws, or regulations of other governments and restrictions imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation. Unrestricted Net Position - T his category represents net position of the City, not restricted for any project or other purpose.
As of June 30, 2022, net position is as follows:

Total net position $ 1,351,727,680 $ 881,333,086 $ 2,233,060,766 Fund balances of the governmental funds are report using a hierarchy based primarily on the extent to which a government is bound to observe constraints imposed upon the use of the resources reported. Fund balances for governmental funds are segregated as follows:
Nonspendable Fund Balance – includes net resources that cannot be spent because of their form or because of legal or contractual limitations, and therefore must remain intact. Restricted Fund Balance – i ncludes net resources that have externally enforceable limitations on their use. T hese limitations can be established by creditors, grantors, or by laws and regulations. Committed Fund Balance – includes amounts with self-imposed limitations and are set in place prior to the end of the fiscal year. Commitments are set forth by the formal action of the City’s highest level of decision-making authority, the City Council (via resolutions or ordinances), and the limitations require that same level of authority to be removed. Assigned Fund Balance – i ncludes amounts for which the intended use results in limitations but do not meet the requirements for either the “Restricted” or “Committed” classifications. I ntended use can be established by the City Council, a governing committee or board, or by a City official designated as having that authority as provided by the Fund Balance Policy.
Unassigned Fund Balance – is the residual balance of the General Fund not included in the other classifications. 55 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) D. Assets, Liabilities, Net Position or Fund Balances, and Other Financial Statement Items (continued) The City Council establishes, modifies or rescinds fund balance commitments though approval of contracts for services and supplies that require City Council authorization through resolution. Fund balance assignments are made by agreements entered into by department heads, and their designees, for specific purposes. The City Council also establishes fund balance assignments through the adoption of the budget and subsequent budget amendments. Assignments are generally temporary and as such, additional action is not usually needed for assignments to be removed. The City Council approved, through resolution, a Fund Balance policy that established these rules for fund balance commitments and assignments in the General Fund. It was not deemed necessary to include a policy to achieve and maintain a specific level of unrestricted fund balance in the General Fund.
Fund Balance Flow Assumptions
The City will sometimes fund outlays for a specific purpose from restricted and unrestricted resources (committed, assigned, and unassigned fund balance). A flow assumption must be made about the order of how these resources will be applied to properly calculate the amounts reported as restricted, committed, assigned, and unassigned. It is the City’s policy to consider restricted fund balance to be used completely before any components of unrestricted fund balance. When the components of unrestricted fund balance are used for the same purpose, the amount classified as committed is used first, followed by assigned, and unassigned is applied last.
Property Taxes
In 1978, a state constitutional amendment (Proposition 13) provided that the property tax rate is lim ited to 1% of market value.
This property tax rate limitation may only be increased through voter approval. The County is the sole agency responsible for levying and collecting the property taxes and distributing them to taxing jurisdictions. T axes are allocated and distributed based upon each taxing jurisdiction's assessed valuations and upon any voter-approved debt override on the tax rate.
The property tax calendar for the City is as follows:
Valuation date January 1
Lien date March 1
Levy dates July 1 through June 30
Due dates November 1; February 1
Collection dates December 10; April 10

Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) D. Assets, Liabilities, Net Position or Fund Balances, and Other Financial Statement Items (continued) Pension Plan
For purposes of measuring the net pension liability and deferred outflows/inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the City's California Public Employee's Retirement System (CalPERS) plans (Plans) and additions to/deductions from the Plans' fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by CalPERS. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value.
Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB)
For purposes of measuring the net OPEB liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB, and OPEB expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the City's OPEB Plan (OPEB Plan) and additions to/deductions from the OPEB Plan's fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis. For this purpose, the OPEB Plan recognizes benefit payments when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments and participating interest-earning investment contracts that have a maturity at the time of purchase of one year or less, are reported at cost.
Cash Flow Statements
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits, short-term investments and cash and investments with fiscal agents. Cash equivalents are defined as short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less meet this definition.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures/expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
E. Stewardship, Compliance, and Accountability
Budgets and Budgetary Accounting
The procedures established by the City Council in adopting the budgetary data reflected in the financial statements are as follows:
1. Prior to June 1, the City Manager submits to the City Council a proposed operating budget for the fiscal year commencing the following July 1. The operating budget includes proposed expenditures and the means of financing them.
2. Public hearings are conducted to obtain taxpayer comments.
3. The City Council legally enacts the budget by resolution before July 1.
The City Manager is authorized to transfer budgeted amounts between departments within any fund and approve reductions of budgeted amounts. Since expenditures may not exceed budgeted appropriations at the fund level, any revisions that alter the total appropriations of any fund are to be approved by the City Council. Projects budgeted w ithin the current fiscal year but not yet completed can be re-appropriated the following fiscal year with City Manager approval. A ll other unencumbered appropriations lapse at year-end. Encumbered amounts are re-appropriated in the ensuing fiscal year budget.
Budgets are adopted for all governmental fund types and are prepared on a basis consistent w ith GAAP. Budgeted amounts are 57 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) E. Stewardship, Compliance, and Accountability (continued) as originally adopted, or as amended by the City Council. D uring the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, the City Council approved $201,311,908 of increases to the originally adopted budget, excluding carryovers of prior year encumbered balances and selected capital appropriations.
Deficit Net Position
The Self-Insurance Internal Service Fund reported a deficit in net position of $57,008,096 at the close of the fiscal year. The continued deficit is the result of a significant increase in the workers' compensation and general liability calculated in the City’s most recent actuarial study. Workers' compensation charges can fluctuate significantly from year to year and staff will continue to adjust departmental rates accordingly to maintain sufficient funding levels.
The Community Development Block Grant Fund reported a deficit in net position of $320,921 at the close of the fiscal year.
The deficit is caused development activity funded by this activity that will have supplemental resources added to to the fund in the subsequent year.
Reclassification and Eliminations
Interfund balances must generally be eliminated in the government-wide financial statements, except for net residual amounts due between governmental activities. A mounts involving fiduciary funds should be reported as external transactions. Any allocations must reduce the expenses of the function from which the expenses are being allocated, so that expenses are reported only once, in the function in which they are allocated.
F. New Accounting Pronouncements
During the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022, the City implemented the following standards:
GASB issued Statement No. 87, Leases. T he objective of this statement is to better meet the information needs of financial statement users by improving accounting and financial reporting for leases by governments. This statement increases the usefulness of governments’ financial statements by requiring recognition of certain lease assets and liabilities for leases that previously were classified as operating leases and recognized as inflows of resources or outflows of resources based on the payment provisions of the contract. It establishes a single model for lease accounting based on the foundational principle that leases are financing of the right to use an underlying asset. Upon implementation, there was a significant effect on the City's financial statements for the Fiscal Year 2021-22.
GASB issued Statement No. 89, Accounting for Interest Cost Incurred Before the End of a Construction Period. The objective of this statement are to enhance the relevance and comparability of information about capital assets and the cost of borrowing for a reporting period and to simplify accounting for interest cost incurred before the end of a construction period. Upon implementation, there was no effect on the City's accounting or financial reporting.
GASB issued Statement No. 92, Omnibus 2020. The objectives of this statement are to enhance comparability in accounting and financial reporting to improve consistency of authoritative literature by addressing practice issues that have been identified during implementation and application of certain GASB statements. Upon implementation, there was no effect on the City's accounting or financial reporting.
GASB issued Statement No. 93, Replacement of Interbank Offered Rates. The objective of this statement is to address those and other accounting and financial reporting implications that result from the replacement of an interbank offered rate (IBOR).
Upon implementation, there was no effect on the City's accounting or financial reporting. 58 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD

Investments Authorized by Debt Agreements
The City and its component units have $371,610 in investments held by bond trustees pledged to the payment or security of certain debt issues. These investments are held in direct obligations of, or obligations that are fully guaranteed as to principal and interest by, the United States Government or an agency thereof. The California Government Code provides that monies held by a bond trustee pledged to the payment or security of debt issues, in absence of specific statutory provisions governing the issuance of the debt, may be invested in accordance with the ordinances, resolutions, or indentures specifying the types of investments the respective bond issue’s trustee may make. The obligations described above are authorized per the investment agreements with the bond trustees and include, but are not limited to, Federal Land Bank Bonds, Federal Home Loan Bank notes and bonds, Export-Import Bank notes and guaranteed participation certificates, obligations of or fully guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association, Federal National Mortgage Association notes, debentures and guaranteed certificates of participation, obligations of the International Bank of Reconstruction and Development and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation notes.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in the market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment.
Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market interest rates. As part of the City’s investment policy, one of the ways that the City manages its exposure to interest rate risk is by purchasing a combination of shorter term and longer term investments and by timing cash flows from maturities so that a portion of the portfolio is maturing or coming close to maturing evenly over time as necessary to provide the cash flow and liquidity needed for operations.
Information about the sensitivity of the fair values of the City’s investments to market interest rate fluctuations is provided by the following table that shows the distribution of the City’s investments by maturity:

Investments with Fair Values Highly Sensitive to Interest Rate Fluctuations Except as inherent by their nature as disclosed above, the City’s investments (including those held by a bond trustee) are not highly sensitive to interest rate fluctuations.
Credit Risk
Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligations to the holder of the investment.
This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. Presented below is the minimum rating required by the California Government Code, the City’s investment policy, or debt agreements, and the actual rating as of year end for each investment type. On August 5, 2011, the rating agency of Standard & Poors (S&P) assigned a negative outlook to the credit rating of the United States government. On August 8, 2011, S&P then downgraded that credit rating to AA+ from AAA.

Concentration of Credit Risk
The City’s investment policy does not limit the amount that can be invested in any one issuer beyond the limitations stipulated by the California Government Code. Investments in any one issuer (other than United States Treasury securities, mutual funds and external investment pools) that represent 5% or more of the City’s total investments are as follows.
Issuer Investment Type Reported Amount Percentage
Federal Farm Credit Bank Federal Agency Securities $ 86,518,390 12% Federal Home Loan Bank Federal Agency Securities $ 90,481,000 13% Custodial Credit Risk
Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that the City will not be able to recover its deposits or will not be able to recover collateral securities in the possession of an outside party if a depository institution fails. T he custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that the City will not be able to recover the value of its investment or collateral securities held by another party if the counterparty (e.g., broker-dealer) to a transaction fails. T he California Government Code and City’s investment 62 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 2 - CASH AND INVESTMENTS (continued)
policy do not contain legal or policy requirements that w ould limit exposure to custodial credit risk for deposits or investments, other than the following provision applicable to deposits: The California Government Code requires that a financial institution secure deposits made by state or local governmental units by pledging securities in an undivided collateral pool held by a depository regulated under state law (unless so waived by the governmental unit). The fair value of the pledged securities in the collateral pool must equal at least 110% of the total amount deposited by the public agencies. C alifornia law also allows financial institutions to secure City deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the secured public deposits.
As of June 30, 2022, all of the City’s deposits with financial institutions in excess of federal depository insurance limits were held in fully collateralized accounts, as permitted by the California Government Code. As of June 30, 2022, all of the City’s investments were held by the City itself or by a broker-dealer (counterparty) other than the broker-dealer used by the City to purchase the securities in the City’s name.
Investment in State Investment Pools
Investments are stated at fair value. Fair value is established quarterly based on quoted market prices received from the securities custodian. Fair value of investments held fluctuates with interest rates. The fair value of participants’ position in the pool is the same as the value of the pool shares. The value of participants’ equity withdrawn is based on the book value of the participants’ percentage participation at the date of such withdrawal.
The California State Treasurer’s Office operates the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF). The LAIF is available for investment of funds administered by California local governments and special districts and is not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as an investment company. The enabling legislation for the LAIF is Section 16429.1 et seq. of the California Government Code. California Asset Management Program (CAMP) is a California Joint Powers Authority established in 1989 to provide California public agencies w ith professional investment services. The CAMP Pool is a permitted investment for all local agencies under California Government Code Section 53601(p).
The LAIF and CAMP operate and report to participants on an amortized cost basis. For both the LAIF and CAMP, the income, gains, and losses, net of administration fees, are allocated based upon the participant’s average daily balance. Deposits in the LAIF and CAMP are not insured or otherwise guaranteed by the State of California, and participants share proportionally in any realized gains or losses on investments. The fair value of the LAIF and CAMP investment pools are approximately equal to the value of the pool shares.
Fair Value Measurement
The City categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. The hierarchy used to measure the fair value of the asset is based on the following:
Level 1 - unadjusted price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets or liabilities, that each fund has the ability to access.
Level 2 - other observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs).
Level 3 - unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including each fund's own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments).
The City has a reported fair value of investments of $683,120,566, of which $227,665,025 are valued using Level 1 inputs.
These include all of the U.S Government Agency Obligations and Time Certificates of Deposit. The remaining investments are valued using Level 2 inputs.

The government-wide Statement of Net Position as well as governmental and enterprise funds defer revenue recognition in connection with resources that have been received as of year-end but not yet earned because under both the accrual and modified accrual basis of accounting revenue may be recognized only when earned. Assets recognized in connection with a transaction before the earnings process is complete are offset by a corresponding liability for advances from grantors and third parties.

NOTE 10 - LEASES
A lease is defined as a contractual agreement that conveys control of the right to use another entity’s nonfinancial asset, for a minimum contractual period of greater than one year, in an exchange-like transaction.
A. Leases of Tangible Items
In fiscal year 2022, the City adopted Statement No. 87, Leases, i ssued by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). This statement establishes a single model for lease accounting based on the principle that leases are financing of the right to use an underlying asset. In accordance with the statement, parties to a lease agreement, the lessee and lessor, are required to recognize a lease liability and an intangible right-to-use lease asset, and a lease receivable and deferred inflow of resources, respectively.
City as Lessor
The City is a lessor of land and building nonfinancial assets. The City recognizes a lease receivable and a deferred inflow of resources in the government-wide and governmental fund financial statements.
At the commencement of a lease, the City initially measures the lease receivable 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 inflow of resources in initially measured as the initial amount of the lease receivable, adjusted for lease payments received at or before the lease commencement date. 72 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 10 - LEASES (continued)
The following are key estimates and judgments how the City determines the discount rate on the expected lease receipts to present value, lease term, and lease receipts:
The City uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases. The lease term includes the noncancellable period of the lease. Lease receipts included in the measurement of the lease receivable is composed of fixed payments from the lessee.
As lessor, the City recognized twelve lease agreements subject to GASB Statement No. 87, Leases, at the beginning of the fiscal year. The lease terms range from 48 to 994 months for the right to use land, land improvements, buildings, and infrastructure. Most of these leases include periodic adjustments to the lease amounts at determined intervals. The fixed lease payment ranges from $1 to $195,696 per year, with the incremental borrowing rate of 1.5%. For the year ended June 30, 2022 the City received an immaterial amount of variable and other payments from these lease arrangements.
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.
Changes in lease receivable for the year ended June 20, 2022 are as follows:

City as a Lessee
The City is a lessee of nonfinancial assets such as land, buildings, and equipment. The City recognizes a lease liability and intangible right-to-use lease assets in the government-wide financial statements. The City recognizes lease liabilities with an initial, individual value of $5,000 or more.
At the commencement of a lease, the City initially measures the lease liability 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. The lease asset is initially measured as the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, plus certain initial direct costs. Subsequently, the lease asset is amortized on a straight-line basis over its useful life, which is the shorter of the leased asset’s useful life or the lease term.
The following are key estimates and judgments on how the City determines its discount rate on the expected lease payments to 73 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 10 - LEASES (continued)
present value, lease term, and lease payments:
The City uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases. The lease term includes the noncancellable period of the lease. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are composed of fixed payment and purchase option price that the City is reasonably certain to exercise.
As lessee, the City recognized six lease agreements subject to GASB Statement No. 87, Leases, at the beginning of the fiscal year. During the fiscal year, the City entered into one lease agreement. The lease terms range from 36-204 months for the right to use buildings and equipment. Most of these leases include periodic adjustments to the lease amounts at determined intervals.
The fixed lease payment ranges from $680 to $695,722 per year with the incremental borrowing rate ranging from 3% to 5%.
For the year ended June 30, 2022, the City paid an immaterial amount of variable and other payments from these lease arrangements.
The City monitors changes in circumstances that would require a remeasurement of its lease and will remeasure the lease asset and liability if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the lease liability.

B. Leases of Intangible Items
GASB Statement No. 87 for leases specifically excludes inclusion of intangible assets. As such, there is a separate tracking of those leases for items identified under GASB Statement No. 51, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Intangible Assets .
The City entered into a long-term lease agreement in September 2005 for the acquisition of water rights with the Kern County Water Agency (KCWA). The agreement entitles the City to receive 6,500 acre feet of water per year in exchange for an annual payment tied to KCWA's water revenue certificates of participation from 2006 and 2008, which were used for the expansion of the water treatment facility. On March 1, 2016, KCWA issued a refunding bond that refunded the previous debt that the City's lease payments were based upon. The City's lease payments coincide with the amortization schedule for the related KCWA dept wit the value of the water rights at $15,625,884. The total lease obligations for the term of the agreement are as follows:

NOTE 12 - PLEDGED REVENUES
The City has pledged net revenues generated by the Wastewater Enterprise Fund to repay a total of $151.5 m illion in wastewater revenue bonds series 2015A issued to finance a portion of the expansion and improvement of the City's wastewater and sewage collection and disposal system.
Each fiscal year, net revenues means all revenues of the enterprise fund received during the fiscal year less operation and maintenance costs for that fiscal year. T he pledge of net revenues does not constitute a lien upon any property of the City.
Proceeds of the bonds provided financing for expansion and upgrade of Wastewater Treatment Plant #3, and improvements to Wastewater Treatment Plant #2. T he bonds are payable through 2034 for 2015A bonds. T he covenants of the ordinances authorizing the bonds include, among other things, an obligation of the City to fix, prescribe, revise, and collect rates, fees, and charges for the services and facilities of the system and revise the same whenever necessary, which will provide gross revenues in each fiscal year sufficient to pay the cost of operation and maintenance of the system; one hundred twenty five percent (125%) of the bond service requirement becoming due in such fiscal year on the outstanding bonds; plus one hundred percent (100%) of all reserve and other payments required to be made pursuant to the ordinances authorizing the bonds.
NOTE 13 - DEFERRED INFLOWS OF RESOURCES
Pursuant to GASB Statement No. 63, Financial Reporting of Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position, and GASB Statement No. 65, Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities, the City recognized deferred inflows of resources in the governmental fund financial statements. These items are an acquisition of net fund balance by the City that is applicable to a future reporting period. Previous financial reporting standards do not include guidance for reporting those financial statement elements, which are distinct from assets and liabilities. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, it is not enough that revenue has been earned if it is to be recognized in the current period. Revenue must also be susceptible to accrual (i.e., measurable and available to finance expenditures of the current period). Governmental funds report deferred revenues in connection with receivables for revenues not susceptible to accrual, as deferred inflows of resources.
Deferred inflows of resources balances (non-lease related) for the year ended June 30, 2022 were as follows:

NOTE 16 - EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT BENEFITS
General
The City of Bakersfield provides pension benefits to eligible full-time employees in three separate plans: the Miscellaneous Plan, the Safety Fire Plan, and the Safety Police Plan, all of which are included in the Public Agency portion of the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS).
Miscellaneous Plan
Plan Description
The City’s Miscellaneous Plan is a defined benefit pension plan that provides retirement and disability benefits, annual cost-of- living adjustments (COLA), and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. T he Miscellaneous Plan is an agent multiple-employer plan administered by CalPERS, which acts as a common investment and administrative agent for participating public employers within the State of California. A menu of benefit provisions, as well as other requirements, is established by State statutes within the Public Employees’ Retirement Law. The City selects optional benefit provisions from the benefit menu by contract with CalPERS and adopts those benefits through local ordinance. C alPERS issues a separate annual comprehensive financial report. Copies of the CalPERS' annual financial report may be obtained from their Executive Office - 400 P Street – Sacramento, CA 95814.
Benefits Provided
The benefits provided through the CalPERS Miscellaneous Plan include retirement and disability benefits, annual cost-of-living adjustments, and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. The City has three tiers through CalPERS under the Miscellaneous employee plan. Tier I is applicable to all employees hired before August 20, 2008 with a formula of 3% at age
60. Earliest retirement age is 50 with final compensation based on 12 months at the highest rate of pay received. Tier II is applicable to employees hired after August 20, 2008 and before January 1, 2013 with a formula of 2.7% at age 55. Earliest retirement age is 50 with final compensation based on 36 months at the highest rate of pay received. Tier III is applicable to employees hired after January 1, 2013 with a formula of 2% at age 62, which is a result of the Public Employees' Pension Reform Act of 2013 (PEPRA). PEPRA also lowered the final compensation and contribution requirements. Earliest retirement age is 52 with final compensation, subject to the PEPRA limit of $161,969, based on 36 months at the highest rate of pay received.
Contributions and Employees Covered
Active plan members in the CalPERS Miscellaneous Plan may be required to contribute a particular percent of their annual pay depending on the applicable plan they fall under. Tier I and Tier II employees will pay 8% of their salary while those employees under PEPRA (Tier III) will pay 6.25% of their salary. In addition, employees in Tier I and Tier II have 7.5% of their contribution picked-up by the City after five years of service.
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 the estimated amount necessary to finance the costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. The employer is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees. It is the responsibility of the employer to make necessary accounting adjustments to reflect the impact due to any Employer Paid Member Contributions or situations where members are paying a portion of the employer contribution.
As of June 30, 2021 (the measurement date), there are 1,064 active employees and 1,031 inactive employees or beneficiaries receiving benefits. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, the employee contribution rate was 7.460 percent of annual pay, and the employer’s minimum contribution rate was 35.040 percent of annual payroll. Employer contribution rates may change if plan contracts are amended.

Actuarial Methods and Assumptions
For the measurement period ended June 30, 2021 (the measurement date), the total pension liability was determined by rolling forward the June 30, 2020 total pension liability. The June 30, 2020 and the June 30, 2021 total pension liabilities were based on the following actuarial methods and assumptions:
Actuarial Cost Method Entry Age Normal
Asset Valuation Method
Fair Value of Assets. For details, see
June 30, 2018 Funding Valuation
Report.
Inflation Rate 2.50%
Salary Increases Varies by Entry Age and Service
Payroll Growth 2.75%
Investment Rate of Return 7.00% [a]
Mortality [b]
[a] Net of Pension Plan Investment and Administrative Expenses; includes inflation. [b] Pre-retirement and Post-retirement mortality rates include 15 years of projected mortality improvements using Society of Actuaries 90% of scale MP-2016. For more details on this table, please refer to the December 2017 experience study report.
All other actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2021 valuation were based on the results of an actuarial experience study dated 2017 which was derived from data collected for the period from 1997 to 2015, including updates to salary increases, mortality and retirement rates. The 2017 Experience Study report can be obtained at CalPERS’ website under Forms and Publications.
Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.15 percent. To determine whether the municipal bond rate should be used in the calculation of a discount rate for each plan, CalPERS stress tested plans that w ould most likely result in a discount rate that would be different from the actuarially assumed discount rate. Based on the testing, none of the tested plans run out of assets. Therefore, the current 7.15 percent discount rate is adequate and the use of the municipal bond rate calculation is not necessary. The long-term expected discount rate of 7.15 percent is applied to all plans in the Public Employees Retirement Fund. The stress test results are presented in a detailed report called “GASB Crossover Testing Report” that can be obtained at CalPERS’ website under the GASB Statement No. 68 section.
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.
In determining the long-term expected rate of return, CalPERS took into account both short-term and long-term market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund cash flows. Using historical returns of all the funds’ asset classes, expected compound (geometric) returns were calculated over the short-term (first 10 years) and the long-term (11+ years) using a building-block approach. Using the expected nominal returns for both short-term and long-term, the present value of benefits was calculated for each fund. The expected rate of return was set by calculating the rounded single equivalent expected return that arrived at the same present value of benefits for cash flows as the one calculated using both short-term and long-term returns. The expected rate of return was then set equal to the single equivalent rate calculated above and adjusted to account for assumed administrative expenses.

Recognition of Gains and Losses
Under GASB Statement No. 68, 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 a five year straight-line amortization. All other amounts are amortized using straight-line amortization 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.
The expected average remaining service lifetime (EARSL) for the plan for the June 30, 2021 measurement date is 3.6 years, which is obtained by dividing the total service years of 10,930 (the sum of remaining lifetimes of active employees) by 3,047 (the total number of participants: active, inactive, and retired). Note that inactive employees and retirees have remaining service lifetimes equal to 0. Also note that total future service is based on the members’ probability of decrementing due to an event other than receiving a cash refund.
Pension Expenses and Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources Related to Pensions As of the start of the measurement period (July 1, 2021), the net pension liability/(asset) is $175,117,381. For the measurement period ending June 30, 2021 (the measurement date), the City incurred a pension expense/(income) of $2,542,046 for the plan.
Note that no adjustments have been made for contributions subsequent to the measurement date. Adequate treatment of any contributions made after the measurement date is the responsibility of the employer.
As of June 30, 2022, the City had deferred outflows of resources related to pensions of $23,570,997 for contributions made subsequent to the measurement date (which will be recognized as a reduction of the net pension liability as of June 30, 2023), $0 for changes of assumptions, and $2,903,956 for the differences between expected and actual experience, and $0 for the net difference between projected and actual earning on pension plan investments. Deferred inflow s of resources related to pensions were $0 f or changes in assumptions and $ (674,039) f or differences between expected and actual experiences, and $(48,905,459) for the net difference between projected and actual earnings on pension plan investments.

Safety Fire Plan
Plan Description
The City’s Safety Fire Plan is a defined benefit pension plan that provides retirement and disability benefits, annual cost-of- living adjustments, and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. The Safety Fire Plan is an agent multiple-employer plan administered by CalPERS, which acts as a common investment and administrative agent for participating public employers within the State of California. A menu of benefit provisions, as well as other requirements, is established by State statutes within the Public Employees’ Retirement Law. The City selects optional benefit provisions from the benefit menu by contract with CalPERS and adopts those benefits through local ordinance. CalPERS issues a separate annual comprehensive financial report. C opies of the CalPERS' annual financial report may be obtained from their Executive Office - 400 P Street – Sacramento, CA 95814.
Benefits Provided
The benefits provided through the CalPERS Safety Fire Plan include retirement and disability benefits, annual cost-of-living adjustments, and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. The City has three tiers through CalPERS under the Safety Fire employee plan. Tier I is applicable to all employees hired before January 1, 2011 with a formula of 3% at age 50. Earliest retirement age is 50 with final compensation based on 12 months at the highest rate of pay received. Tier II is applicable to employees hired after January 1, 2011 and before January 1, 2013 with a formula of 2.0% at age 50. Earliest retirem ent age is 50 with final compensation based on 36 months at the highest rate of pay received. Tier III is applicable to employees hired after January 1, 2013 with a formula of 2% at age 57, which is a result of PEPRA. PEPRA also lowered the final compensation and contribution requirements. Earliest retirement age is 50 with final compensation, subject to the PEPRA limit of $161,969, based on 36 months at the highest rate of pay received.
Contributions and Employees Covered
Active plan members in the CalPERS Safety Fire Plan may be required to contribute a particular percent of their annual pay depending on the applicable plan they fall under. Tier I and Tier II employees will pay 9% of their salary while those employees under PEPRA (Tier III) will pay 11.75% o f their salary. I n addition, employees in Tier I have 8% of their contribution picked-up by the City after five years of service.
Section 20814(c) of the California 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.

Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.15 percent. To determine whether the municipal bond rate should be used in the calculation of a discount rate for each plan, CalPERS stress tested plans that w ould most likely result in a discount rate that would be different from the actuarially assumed discount rate. Based on the testing, none of the tested plans run out of assets. Therefore, the current 7.15 percent discount rate is adequate and the use of the municipal bond rate calculation is not necessary. The long-term expected discount rate of 7.15 percent is applied to all plans in the Public Employees Retirement Fund. The stress test results are presented in a detailed report called “GASB Crossover Testing Report” that can be obtained at CalPERS’ website under the GASB Statement No. 68 section.
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.

The expected rate of return was set by calculating the rounded single equivalent expected return that arrived at the same present value of benefits for cash flows as the one calculated using both short-term and long-term returns. The expected rate of return was then set equal to the single equivalent rate calculated above and adjusted to account for assumed administrative expenses.

Recognition of Gains and Losses
Under GASB Statement No. 68, 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 a five year straight-line amortization. All other amounts are amortized using straight-line amortization 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.
The expected average remaining service lifetime (EARSL) for the plan for the June 30, 2020 measurement date is 5.6 years, which is obtained by dividing the total service years of 5,526 (the sum of remaining lifetimes of active employees) by 982 (the total number of participants: active, inactive, and retired). Note that inactive employees and retirees have remaining service lifetimes equal to 0. Also note that total future service is based on the members’ probability of decrementing due to an event other than receiving a cash refund.
Pension Expense and Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources Related to Pensions As of the start of the measurement period (July 1, 2021), the net pension liability/(asset) is $197,649,198. For the measurement period ending June 30, 2021 (the measurement date), the City incurred a pension expense/(income) of $15,485,637 for the plan.
Note that no adjustments have been made for contributions subsequent to the measurement date. Adequate treatment of any contributions made after the measurement date is the responsibility of the employer.
As of June 30, 2022, the City had deferred outflows of resources related to pensions of $24,757,914 for contributions made subsequent to the measurement date (which will be recognized as a reduction of the net pension liability as of June 30, 2023), $3,125,125 for changes of assumptions, $6,322,304 for differences between expected and actual experiences and $0 for the net difference between projected and actual earnings on pension plan investments. Deferred inflows of resources related to pensions were $(706,797) for changes in assumptions, $(1,033,136) for differences between expected and actual experiences, and $(40,022,464) for the net difference between projected and actual earnings on pension plan investments. 96 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD

Single Employer OPEB
Plan description: In addition to the employee retirement benefits described in Note 16, the City provides a single-employer Post-Employment Retiree Medical Benefit Plan in accordance with a resolution approved by City Council. Two primary plans exist. All employees with a retirement date prior to January 1, 1985 were eligible for benefits upon retirement. Post-1985 employees must retire with fifteen years accumulated service upon retirement to participate. The service requirement is waived for safety employees who retire with a job-related disability.
Employees hired after the dates listed below will not participate in either of the retiree health subsidy programs mentioned:
Miscellaneous Employees February 22, 2006
Management and Supervisory March 22, 2006
Fire Safety May 5, 2006
Police Safety May 24, 2006
Benefits provided: F or employees hired prior to the dates listed above, the City provides lifetime postretirement medical benefits for eligible retirees and qualified dependents with a choice of three medical options: Blue Shield PPO, Kaiser High Deductible Health Plan, and Kaiser Permanente HMO. Mental Health benefits are carved out and provided through Optum Behavioral Health. A fter reaching eligibility for Medicare, retirees are offered a choice of Blue Shield PPO, Blue Shield Medicare Advantage HMO or Kaiser Senior Advantage HMO. Retirees may also elect dental coverage but must self-pay the premiums for such coverage. Vision coverage is not offered to retirees. Retiree rates are unblended from employee rates.
Employees covered by benefit terms: At June 30, 2022 the following employees were covered by the benefit terms:
Inactive employees or beneficiaries currently
receiving benefit payments 754
Active employees 428
1,182
Contributions. The City contributes 3% of the lowest single-party rate per year of service to a maximum of 90%. If the dollar amount is greater than the premium for a retiree covered under one of the Medicare Advantage plans, the retiree receives a cash reimbursement of the difference to a maximum of $42.50 per month. The City also contributes 42% of the Blue Shield PPO for all retirees who elect the Blue Shield PPO plan, excluding Miscellaneous employees hired after April 1, 1996 and Safety employees hired after April 1, 1998. The City has approximately 428 active employees who are eligible for the same level of post-employment benefits and 754 retirees (and/or dependents) currently receiving benefits as of the actuarial dated June 30, 2022. There is not a separate, audited GAAP-basis pension report available for the Post-Employment Retiree Medical Benefit Plan.

Net OPEB Liability
The City's net OPEB liability was measured as of June 30, 2021, and the total OPEB liability used to calculate the net OPEB liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of that date.
Actuarial assumptions. The total OPEB liability as of June 30, 2021 was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2021. T he actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2021 v aluation were based on the December 2021 e xperience study performed by the CalPERS actuary derived from the data collected during fiscal years 2000 to 2019.

Based on the 2021 experience study performed by
CalPERS derived from data collected during fiscal years 2000-2019.
The long-term expected rate of return on OPEB Plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of OPEB Plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These ranges are combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage, and by adding expected inflation and subtracting expected investment expenses and a risk margin. The target allocation and projected arithmetic real rates of return, after deducting inflation, but before deducting investment expenses, used in the derivation of the long-term expected rate of return assumption are summarized in the following table:
Asset Class

Discount rate. The discount rate used to measure the total OPEB liability was 4.75% as of June 30, 2021 and 5.00% as of June 30, 2020. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that plan member contributions will be made at the current contribution rate and that City contributions will be made at the rates equal to the actuarially determined contribution rates. For this purpose, only City contributions that are intended to fund benefits of current plan members and their 99 CITY OF BAKERSFIELD

beneficiaries are included. Projected City contributions that are intended to fund the service costs of future plan members and their beneficiaries, as well as projected contributions from future plan members, are not included. Based on those assumptions, the OPEB Plan's assets were projected to be sufficient to make all projected OPEB payments for current plan members.
Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on OPEB Plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total OPEB liability as of both June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020.

NOTE 19 - RISK MANAGEMENT
Self-Insurance
The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; injuries to employees; and natural disasters. The City established a Self-Insurance Fund (an internal service fund) to account for and finance its uninsured risks of loss. Under this program, the Self-Insurance Fund provides coverage for up to $500,000 for each workers’ compensation claim and $1,000,000 for each liability claim. The City participates in a joint pow ers authority for workers’ compensation claims in excess of coverage provided by the fund up to statutory limits and participates in a joint powers authority for any excess liability claims. All funds of the City participate in the program and are charged for their share of claim expenditures. The claims liability of $71,321,000 at June 30, 2022 is based on the requirements of GASB Statement No. 10, which requires that a liability for claims be reported if information prior to the issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is probable that a liability has been incurred at the date of the financial statements and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. An estimate of incurred but not reported claims has been included in the liability based on the various percentages of loss reserves.

Joint Powers Authority
The City has obtained excess liability coverage through the Authority for California Cities Excess Liability (ACCEL), a joint powers authority of medium-size California municipalities. ACCEL pools catastrophic general liability, automobile liability and public officials' errors and omissions losses, or purchases excess insurance, depending on market conditions. E ach member's share of pooled costs will depend on the catastrophic losses of all the members. In addition, the cost to a member city will also depend on that member's own loss experience. Entities with a consistent record of costly claims will pay more than entities with a consistent record of less serious claims activity.
In order to provide funds to pay claims, or purchase excess insurance, ACCEL collects a deposit from each member. T he deposits will be credited with investment income at the rate earned on ACCEL's investments. Based on information received from ACCEL as of June 30, 2022, the City had $2,485,469 o n deposit with ACCEL out of a total of approximately $22,897,880.
The following municipalities are also members of ACCEL: P alo Alto, Santa Barbara, Visalia, Modesto, Ontario, Santa Monica, Anaheim, Santa Cruz, Mountain View, Burbank, Monterey, and Gardena. A representative from each member city, appointed to the position by their respective city councils, serves on the Board of Directors (Board) of ACCEL. The Board is responsible for deciding the risks ACCEL will underwrite, monitoring the costs of large claims and arranging financial programs. Each member of the Board has an equal vote in matters concerning ACCEL.
As of June 30, 2022, ACCEL had no long-term debt. Included in total liabilities is an estimated retrospectively rated refund of $0. C omplete financial statements of ACCEL can be obtained at the City’s Finance Department at 1600 Truxtun Avenue, Bakersfield, CA 93301.

NOTE 20 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Several claims and suits have been filed against the City in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management and the City Attorney, the potential liability of the City for such claims will not have a material adverse effect on the financial statements of the City. Also, the City has certain commitments under long-term construction projects which will be funded out of future revenues.
The entire capacity of the former sanitary landfill has been used. The State has required environmental closure and capping of the City's former sanitary landfill and remediation of the adjacent burn dump. Although these two waste disposal areas are adjacent to each other, the City completed the remediation of the burn dump separately, through the State's Expedited Remedial Action Program, in 1998. The cost of remediation for the burn dump of $1.8 million was funded by the City's Refuse Service Fund and was expensed in prior fiscal years. The landfill closure was completed in May 2013 at a cost of $4.8 million. The City’s net share of this joint City/County project was approximately $3 million. Kern County reimbursed the City for the remaining $1.8 million.
The City will be required to perform post-closure monitoring and maintenance of the landfill after it is closed and capped. This will result in an ongoing annual cost of approximately $170,000. The City will be responsible for about $135,000 of these annual charges because most of these costs will be for the landfill gas management system, which is the City's responsibility.
Kern County will be responsible for reimbursing the City for the remainder. City management anticipates all closure and post- closure costs being covered by annual Refuse Service Fund revenues. These estimates of cost are subject to future adjustment for inflation or deflation, technology, or applicable laws or regulations. 104

BUDGETARY INFORMATION
Through the budget process, the City Council sets the direction of the City, allocates its resources and establishes its priorities.
The Annual Budget assures the efficient and effective use of the City's economic resources, as well as establishing that the highest priority objectives are accomplished. Budgets are adopted for all governmental fund types and are prepared on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The Annual Budget serves from July 1 to June 30, and is a vehicle that accurately and openly communicates these priorities to the community, businesses, vendors, employees and other public agencies. Additionally, it establishes the foundation of effective financial planning by providing resource planning, performance measures and controls that permit the evaluation and adjustment of the City's performance.
The City's budget is prepared and based on four expenditure categories: personnel, supplies and services, minor capital outlay and capital improvement programs. The first three listed are considered operational in nature and known as recurring costs.
Capital improvement projects are asset acquisitions, facilities systems, and infrastructure improvements typically over $50,000, and/or those items "outside" of the normal operational budget. These are known as one-time costs.
The City collects and records revenue and expenditures within the following categories:
Governmental Activities
Business-Type Activities
The Governmental Funds include the General Fund, Special Revenue, Debt Service and Capital Projects funds. All funding sources are kept separate for both reporting and use of the money. The General Fund is where most City services are funded that are not required to be segregated.
The budget process begins as a team effort in January of each year, starting w ith an annual strategic planning meeting. Then the individual departments use projected revenue assumptions to prioritize and recommend the next fiscal year's objectives. The City Manager's Office and the Finance Department review all budget proposals and revenues assumptions, as well as all current financial obligations before preparing the document that is proposed to the City Council. The City Council reviews the Proposed Budget through a series of workshops, and the final adoption of the budget is normally scheduled for the second City Council meeting each June.
At the beginning of each fiscal year, certain appropriations are "carried forward" from the prior budget year. These items generally relate to either open encumbrances that exist at June 30, or capital projects that w ere budgeted in the prior fiscal year that did not progress to the encumbrance stage as of June 30. The City Manager's Office approves all carryovers that are not encumbered as of June 30 of each year.
The amounts carried forward from fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 to fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 totaled $355,008,797. 109

Notes to Schedule of Changes in Net Pension Liability and Related Ratios:
Benefit Changes: The figures above do not include any liability impact that may have resulted from plan changes which occurred after the June 30, 2015 valuation date. This applies for voluntary benefit changes as well as any offers of Two Years Additional Service Credit (a.k.a. Golden Handshakes).
Changes of Assumptions: None in 2019 or 2020. In 2018, the accounting discount rate reduced from 7.65 percent to 7.15 percent. In 2016, there were no changes. In 2015, amounts reported reflect an adjustment of the discount rate from 7.5 percent (net of administrative expense) to 7.65 percent (without a reduction for pension plan administrative expense). In 2014, amounts reported were based on the 7.5 percent discount rate. 114

Notes to Schedule of Changes in Net Pension Liability and Related Ratios:
Benefit Changes: The figures above do not include any liability impact that may have resulted from plan changes which occurred after the June 30, 2015 valuation date. This applies for voluntary benefit changes as well as any offers of Two Years Additional Service Credit (a.k.a. Golden Handshakes).
Changes of Assumptions: None in 2019 or 2020. In 2018, the accounting discount rate reduced from 7.65 percent to 7.15 percent. In 2016, there were no changes. In 2015, amounts reported reflect an adjustment of the discount rate from 7.5 percent (net of administrative expense) to 7.65 percent (without a reduction for pension plan administrative expense). In 2014, amounts reported were based on the 7.5 percent discount rate. 119

Special Revenue Funds
These funds account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are legally restricted to expenditures for specific purposes.
Transient Occupancy Taxes Fund is used to account for Transient Occupancy Tax Revenues (Hotel Tax) and expenditures funded by this revenue source. The Rabobank Arena and Convention Center and Bakersfield Ice Sports Center operating revenues and expenditures are recorded in this fund. This fund is also used to account for duties performed by Visit Bakersfield.
Community Development Block Grant Fund i s used to account for resources provided by the Federal Housing and Community Development Act o f 1974 for the elimination of slums and blight, housing conservation and improvements of community services.
Rental and Downpayment Assistance Fund is used to account for resources provided by the Federal Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 to address congressionally identified needs of abandoned and foreclosed homes in the City. These funds are used for down payment assistance, acquisition of Real Estate Owned (REO) lender assets properties that have been foreclosed upon for redevelopment, rehabilitation of acquired residential structures, and demolition of blighted structures.
Covid Relief Fund is used to account for resources provided by the CARES Act as well as the American Rescue Plan Act for COVID-19 relief. Both of these federally funded assistance programs are used to address the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on both the local economy and City operations as a whole.
Gas Tax & Road Fund i s used to account for the City's share, based upon population, of state gasoline taxes. State law requires these gasoline taxes be used to maintain streets or for major street construction. This fund also accounts for the resources provided by the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP21). Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) funds are used in the metropolitan Bakersfield area to fund transportation projects in the Transportation Improvement Program. The Regional Surface Transportation Program (STP) is funded by Federal aid functionally classified higher than local road or rural minor collector routes. The Transportation Enhancement Activities (TEA) Program projects have a direct relationship to the intermodal transportation system by function, proximity, or impact. Lastly, the Highway Bridge Replacement and Rehabilitation Program (HBRR) allows each local agency two bridge replacement projects and two miscellaneous projects per year.
State (TDA) Transportation Fund i s used to account for three Transportation Development Act (TDA) funding sources.
Article 3 funds must be used to construct facilities that specifically benefit pedestrians and/or bicyclists. Article 4 funds are Local Transportation and State Transit Assistance Funds. These resources are used to cover the City's maintenance and operation costs of the Bakersfield Amtrak Railway Station. The City is the owner of the station and leases the facility to Amtrak, who operates the transit service. Article 4 funds may also be used for various improvements at bus stops throughout the City. Article 8 funds represent the City's allocation of the 1/4% of sales tax authorized by Senate Bill (SB) 325. State law requires these sales tax dollars be used for street purposes. These funds are received and expended by the City as lead agency servicing the local road network. All three revenue resources are accounted for individually as required by the State of California but are combined for financial reporting purposes. The City currently receives only Article 3 and Article 4 money.
State Safety Fund i s used to account for specific revenue received for certain Police and Fire related programs. The City Police Department has a share of traffic fine resources which are transferred to the General Fund to assist in funding the cost of traffic safety and control devices and State of California monies from the Supplemental Law Enforcement Services grant. The Fire Department operates a local Certified Unified Program Agency (CUPA) which is required for state and federal environmental regulation. These revenue sources are accounted for individually as required by the State, but combined for financial reporting purposes.
Redevelopment Successor Agency Housing Fund w as created on February 1, 2012, pursuant to the provisions of the Redevelopment Restructuring Act. The City has chosen to assume the housing functions and take over the housing assets of the former Redevelopment Agency.

Capital Projects Funds
These funds account for financial resources to be used for the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities other than those financed by Proprietary Funds and Trust Funds.
Capital Outlay Fund is used to account for the cost of capital projects financed by general revenues and grant/loan proceeds for recreational facilities.
Park Improvement Fund is used to account for funds collected for residential park development (Ordinance No. 3646). Fees are collected based on the development's share of the cost to develop, improve, construct or enhance a neighborhood park (Ordinance No. 3327).
Transportation Development Fund is used to account for funds collected from fees paid to mitigate the traffic impacts to the regional circulation system caused by a development project. The fees are paid when a building permit for the development project is obtained, and are based upon the amount of traffic the development w ill generate. With these fees, the City constructs projects that have been identified as necessary to maintain the level of services required by the 2010 General Plan for the regional transportation network. This is a joint City and Kern County program which affects the entire metropolitan area. Fees are collected with the building permit and are based on the relative impact each land use has on the transportation netw ork. The fee schedule was adopted with Ordinance No. 3513 and will be periodically evaluated by the City Council and revised to reflect updated costs and growth projections. Revenue from fees collected may also be used to service bonded debt incurred in Capital Improvement Construction.

(1) In 1978 the voters of the State of California passed Proposition 13 which limited taxes to a total maximum rate of 1% based upon the assessed value of the property being taxed. Each year, the assessed value of property may be increased by an "inflation factor" (limited to a maximum of 2%). With few exceptions, property is only reassessed as a result of new construction activity or at the time it is sold to a new owner. At that point, the property is reassessed based upon the added value of the construction or at the purchase price (market value) or economic value 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.

(1) In 1978 the voters of the State of California passed Proposition 13 which set the property tax rate at a 1.00% fixed amount.
This 1.00% is shared by all taxing agencies for which the subject property resides within. In addition to the 1.00% fixed amount, property owners are charged taxes as a percentage of assessed property values for the payment of any voter approved bonds.
(2) Overlapping rates are those of local and county governments that apply to property owners within the City. Not all overlapping rates apply to all City property owners.
(3) City's share of 1.00% levy is based on the City's share of the general fund tax rate area with the largest net taxable value within the City. Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund (ERAF) general fund tax shifts are not included in tax ratio figures. The effective City rate after ERAF is 9.9%. (4) Total Direct Rate is the weighted average of all individual direct rates applied by the City of Bakersfield.
