Staff Report
TO: City Council
FROM: Robert Vestal, Director of Public Works
DATE: April 15, 2025
SUBJECT: Final Approval of Parcel Map No. 38953
Description Final approval of Parcel Map No. 38953 (PM2024-0003), a subdivision of 110.19 acres (APN 413-790-074) into six (6) lots for financial purposes, and Accept Security Agreement for Survey Monuments.
Background and Analysis:
As part of the development process to subdivide a parcel(s) in accordance with the Subdivision Map Act, a tentative map is reviewed and approved by the Planning Commission and City Council. During the review process, staff reviews conditions of approval provided by all City departments and prepares final conditions to be issued with the tentative map approval. Once a tentative map is approved by City Council and conditions have been satisfied, final approval by City Council is required to complete the subdivision process.
On August 20, 2024, City Council approved Tentative Parcel Map No. 38953 (PM2024 - 0003) subject to the Development Agreement and conditions of approval. Tentative Parcel Map No. 38953 proposes to subdivide 110.19 acres into six (6) lots, as shown in Attachment A.
The 110.19-acre site is currently vacant. The property is located in an area which contains single family residences to the north and east and vacant land to the south and west. Future development of the lots will require the recordation of final tract maps, in which tentative tract maps are already approved for the subject property. The project has been conditioned to preclude development until such time that the final tract maps are recorded.
Figure 1- Vicinity Map
Figure 2 - Parcel Map Layout
Per Beaumont Municipal Code 16.36.080, the City Engineer has certified that:
(A) He has examined the map.
(B) The land division as shown is substantially the same as it appeared on the tentative map and any approved alterations thereof.
(C) All provisions of the Subdivision Map Act and all City ordinances applicable at the time of approval of the tentative map have been complied with. (D) He is satisfied that the map is technically correct. (E) In the City Surveyors certificate, the date of approval of the tentative map and the date of expiration is stated.
Subsequently, staff recommends the Final Map be approved pursuant to Section
16.36.090 of the Beaumont Municipal Code. However, if the Council determines that the division of land does not conform to all the requirements of the Subdivision Map Act, amended Development Agreement and, Beaumont Municipal Code applicable of the tentative map and any rulings made thereunder may disapprove the map; pro vided, however, the division of land shall not be disapproved due to technical or inadvertent
errors which can easily be corrected and, in the opinion of the City Engineer, do not materially affect the validity of the map.
There are no public improvements required as part of the development of this division of land and therefore no improvement agreement is required.
The land divider has provided a subdivision improvement agreement and security in the form of a cash deposit for the interior survey monuments. The agreement has been reviewed by staff and found to be consistent with the Beaumont Municipal Code.
Fiscal Impact:
The cost to prepare this staff report is estimated to be $700. All public improvements associated with the Parcel Map will be completed at the developer’s expense. The City is not liable for public improvement maintenance until the public improvements are accepted into the City’s publicly maintained system.
Recommended Action:
Approve Parcel Map No. 38953 as it is in substantial conformance with the approved tentative map, and
Accept Security Agreement for survey monuments.

SUBJECT: Grants Quarterly Report Q3 FY2024-2025
Description Quarterly Grants Reporting from January 1, 2025, through March 31, 2025.
Background and Analysis:
The City of Beaumont is committed to fostering community development and growth through various initiatives and programs, including grant funding. As part of our ongoing efforts to enhance transparency and accountability, we identified the need to establish a comprehensive system for monitoring and reporting on the status of grants received and applied for by the city. The attached report outlines the status of all active and pending grants and provides an overview of our progress in centralizing the City of Beaumont's grant processes and record-keeping. During this process, as we continue to reconcile grant records from previous fiscal years, some minor corrections have been made to ensure the accuracy and consistency of reported information. This initiative aims to ensure that all grant-related activities are efficiently managed and accurately documented, supporting our commitment to community development and responsible financial stewardship.

DATE: April 15, 2025
SUBJECT: Performance Bond Exoneration
Description Performance and payment bond exoneration for street and storm drain improvements associated with Tract Map No. 27971 -7.
Background and Analysis:
The City requires all developers to provide construction security for public improvements consisting of, but not limited to, street improvements, sewer improvements, storm drain improvements, and survey monumentation. After the improvements are constructed, City staff verifies that no liens have been filed, that the improvements are completed in accordance with the project’s conditions of approval, design standards, and City requirements, and that all punch list items have been addressed. Once verified, the City Council may exonerate the construction security and accept a one-year maintenance security.
During the one-year maintenance period, the developer maintains all associated improvements. After the one-year term has elapsed, the developer may petition the City Council to accept the improvements into the publicly maintained system and exonerate the maintenance security.
The principals are requesting that the performance and payment bonds listed in Table No. 1 be exonerated and that the City Council accept the corresponding maintenance bond for a period not less than one year.
City staff has verified that the improvements were constructed in accordance with the project’s conditions of approval, design standards, and City requirements , and that all punch list items have been addressed.

Therefore, City staff recommends that the City Council accept maintenance security and authorize City staff to issue a bond exoneration letter for the performance and payment bonds.
Fiscal Impact:
The cost of preparing the staff report is estimated to be $350.
The principal maintains all associated improvements during the maintenance period.
The City is not liable for any private street improvements for Tract Map No. 27971-7 after the maintenance period.

Staff Report
TO: City Council
FROM: Robert Vestal, Public Works Director
DATE: April 15, 2025
SUBJECT: Accept Public Improvements and Exonerate Maintenance Bond
Description Maintenance bond exoneration for sewer improvements associated with APN 419-202-005.
Background and Analysis:
The City requires all developers to provide construction security for public improvements consisting of, but not limited to, street improvements, sewer improvements, storm drain improvements, and survey monumentation. After the improvements are constructed, City staff verifies that no liens have been filed, that the improvements are completed in accordance with the project’s conditions of approval, design standards, and City requirements, and that all punch list items have been addressed. Once verified, City Council may exonerate the construction security and accept a one-year maintenance security.
During the one-year maintenance period, the developer maintains all associated improvements. After the one-year term has elapsed, the developer may petition the City Council to accept the improvements into the publicly maintained system and exonerate the maintenance security.
After the petition is received by the Public Works Department, City staff verifies that the previously constructed improvements have been maintained in accordance with City standards. Maintenance includes replacing defective materials, repairing defective craftsmanship, replacing missing components, repairing or replacing damaged finishes and surfaces, and repairing any other deficiencies.
The principal is requesting that the public improvements listed in Table No. 1 be accepted and respective maintenance bonds exonerated.

To the Board of Commissioners
Riverside County Transportation Commission
Riverside, California
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of the Transit System (the System) of the City of Beaumont, California (the City), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the System as of June 30, 2024, and the changes in its financial position and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS) and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States (Government Auditing Standards). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Emphasis of Matter
As discussed in Note 1, the financial statements present only the System, and do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of the City as of June 30, 2024, the changes in its financial position, or, where applicable, its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.
Correction of Error
As discussed in Note 11 to the financial statements, an error resulting in an overstatement of amounts previously reported for subscription liability and expense as of June 30, 2023, was discovered by management of the System during the current year. Accordingly, a restatement has been made to the System's net position as of July 1, 2024, to correct the error. Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter.
2 Report on Summarized Comparative Information
We have previously audited the System’s June 30, 2023 financial statements, and we expressed an unmodified opinion on those audited financial statements in our report dated March 29, 2024. In our opinion, the summarized comparative information presented herein as of and for the year ended June 30, 2023, is consistent, in all material respects, with the exception of the correction of error identified in the preceding paragraph, with the audited financial statements from which it has been derived.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards, we Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks.
Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.
3 Required Supplementary Information
Management has omitted the management’s discussion and analysis that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supplement the financial statements. Such missing information, although not a part of the financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic or historical context. Our opinion on the financial statements is not affected by the missing information.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated March 31, 2025, on our consideration of the City’s internal control over financial reporting as it relates to the System and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control over financial reporting or on compliance related to the System. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the System’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 2024
Note 1 - General Information
The financial statements of the Transit System (the System) are intended to present the financial position and results of operations of only those transactions attributable to the System, operated by the City of Beaumont, California (the City). They do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of the City as of June 30, 2024 and the related changes in its financial position or its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial statements of the System are included in the basic financial statements of the City.
As an operator of a public transportation system, the City is eligible to receive Transportation Development Act (TDA) Article 4 Funds in accordance with California Public Utilities Code §99260. Pursuant to §99260, Article 4 monies may be used for the support of public transportation systems, aid to public transportation research and demonstration projects, and contributions for the construction of grade separation projects. These Funds were allocated by the Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC) to supplement the City's transit operations.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Fund Accounting
The accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds. A fund is defined as an independent fiscal and accounting entity wherein operations of each fund are accounted for in a separate set of self-balancing accounts that record resources, related liabilities, obligations, equity segregated for the purpose of carrying out specific activities or attaining certain objectives in accordance with special regulations, restrictions or limitations. The City accounts for the activity of the System in its Transit System, which is an Enterprise Fund.
Enterprise funds are used to account for operations that are financed primarily through user charges, or where the governing body has decided that determination of net income is appropriate.
The accounting policies of the System conforms to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America as applicable to governments. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard-setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles in the United States.
Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting
Enterprise funds are accounted for on the flow of economic resources measurement focus and use the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recognized when incurred regardless of the timing of related cash flows.

9 Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash equivalents are defined as short-term, highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase. The fund’s share in the cash and investment pool of the City are considered cash and cash equivalents for cash flow purposes.
Grants
Grant revenues and receivables are recorded when earned on grants that have been approved and funded by the grantor. Grant sources include, Low Carbon Transit Operations Program (LCTOP), State Transit Assistance (STA), Measure A, and Local Transportation Funds (LTF).
Capital Assets
All capital assets, consisting primarily of land, vehicles, buildings and equipment, are stated at cost. The City’s policy for the System is to capitalize all assets with an initial individual cost of more than $5,000 and an estimated useful life in excess of one year. Donated capital assets are recorded at acquisition value as of the date received. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to ten years. The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the assets or materially extend asset lives are not capitalized. Right to use subscription IT assets with a cost greater than $1,000 are amortized over the shorter of the subscription term or useful life of the underlying asset using the straight-line method and an amortization over the shorter of the subscription term or useful life.
Compensated Absences
City employees have a vested interest in varying levels of vacation, sick leave and compensatory time based on their length of employment. It is the policy of the City to pay all accumulated vacation pay and a portion of unused sick pay when an employee retires or terminates. The short-term liability is the amount that will be liquidated with current financial resources and is expected to be paid during the next fiscal year.
Net Position
Net position is classified in the following categories:
Net investment in capital assets - net investment in capital assets represents capital assets net of accumulated depreciation and reduced by outstanding debt that is attributed to acquisition, construction or improvements of the assets.
Restricted - This amount is restricted by external creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments. There was no restricted net position for transportation as of June 30, 2024.
Unrestricted - Unrestricted represents the amount of net position that is either not restricted or does not meet the definition of net investment in capital assets. There was an unrestricted net deficit for transportation as of June 30, 2024.

10 Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources
In addition to assets and liabilities, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred outflows and inflows of resources. The separate financial statement elements represents consumption or acquisition of net assets that applies to future period(s) and will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense) or inflows of resources (revenue) until then. The System reports deferred outflows and inflows of resources related to the System’s net pension obligation.
Unearned Revenue
Unearned revenue arises when the System receives resources before it has a legal claim to them, as when grant monies are received prior to meeting all eligibility requirements. In subsequent periods, when both revenue recognition criteria are met, or when the government has a legal claim to the resources, revenue is recognized.
Adoption of New Accounting Standard
As of July 1, 2023, the City adopted GASB Statement No. 100, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. The implementation of this standard requires additional presentation and disclosure requirements for accounting changes and error corrections. The financial statements have been updated to conform to the presentation requirements related to the error correction in the financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2024. The additional disclosures required by this standard are included in Note 11.
Note 3 - Cash and Investments
The City has pooled its cash and investments in order to achieve a higher return on investments while facilitating management of cash. The balance in the pooled account is available to meet current operating requirements.
Cash in excess of current requirements is invested in various interest-bearing accounts and other investments for varying terms. The System's cash and investments as of June 30, 2024, were as follows:
Pooled cash with the City of Beaumont 6,633$

11 The investments are categorized into its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the asset. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observable inputs; Level 3 inputs are significant unobservable inputs.
The System’s cash and investments are combined with the City’s pooled investments, and therefore, do not represent specific identifiable investments. The City categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by accounting principles generally accepted in the Unites States of America as described above. Interest income is allocated on the basis of average cash balances. Investment policies and associated risk factors applicable to the System are those of the City and are included in the City's basic financial statements. The City’s basic financial statements may be obtained by contacting the City’s Finance Department.

Note 7 - Employees' Retirement Plan
The City participates in the Public Employees' Retirement System of the State of California (CalPERS) covering all of its permanent employees. The excess, if any, of the actuarially computed value of vested benefits over the amounts available in the pension trust fund administered by CalPERS would be a liability of the City as a whole, not of the System, except for those liabilities which are specifically allocated to the System. As a method to demonstrate how the liability will be funded by City resources, portions of the liability were allocated to the System. The City allocated 11% of the total net pension liability, deferred outflows and inflows of resources, and pension expense to the System for fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. Information regarding the plan description, funding status, actuarially determined contribution requirements and contributions made and trend information may be found in the City's annual financial report.
Note 8 - Farebox Recovery Ratio
The City’s Dial-A-Ride program serves the elderly and the disabled. The System is subject to the provisions of the California Public Utilities Code section 99268.3 and must maintain a minimum farebox recovery of 20% for the fixed route and 10% for the Dial-A-Ride pursuant to California Code of Regulations 6633.2 and 6633.5, respectively.
Assembly Bill 149 (AB149), effective July 16, 2021, amended Section 99268.17 of the Public Utilities Code (PUC) and the definition of “operating costs” for the purpose of calculating any required ratios of passenger fares to operating costs. Further, if fare revenues were insufficient to meet the applicable ratio of fare revenues to operating costs, an operator may supplement its fare revenues with local funds. It further amended PUC Section 99268.9 and (AB90) by prohibiting the imposition of a penalty on operators that do not maintain the required ratio of the fare revenues to operating cost during fiscal years 2019-20, 2020-21, 2021-22, 2022-23, 2023-24, 2024-25, and 2025-26.

17 Note 12 - Net Position Unrestricted Deficit
As of June 30, 2024, the System ended the year in a deficit unrestricted net position. The unrestricted net position (deficit) results primarily from the recording of the System’s net pension liability.
Implementation of GASB Statement No. 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions, to the System had a significant impact on unrestricted net position. The respective net pension liability and related deferred inflows of resources exceeds the value of the assets and deferred outflows of resources, resulting in a negative unrestricted net position. The unrestricted deficit does not necessarily indicate a current financial concern of the System. Since the net pension liability is a long-term liability, the City is looking at long-term solutions for mitigating the liability through effective pension management.

To the Board of Commissioners
Riverside County Transportation Commission
Riverside, California
We have audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States (Government Auditing Standards), the financial statements of the Transit Services Fund (the Fund) of the Transit System (the System) of the City of Beaumont, California (the City), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated March 31, 2025. Our report includes an emphasis of matter paragraph indicating the financial statements present only the Fund of the City for the year ended June 30, 2024, and restatement of beginning net position for the correction of an error.
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the System’s financial statements, we considered the City's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the System’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. We identified a certain deficiency in internal control, described in the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Responses as item 2024-001 that we consider to be a material weakness.
19 Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the System's financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, including Section 6667 of Part 21 of the California Code of Regulations and policies and procedures adopted by the Riverside County Transportation Commission, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards, including the requirements of Section 6667 of part 21 of the California Code of Regulations and policies and procedures adopted by the Riverside County Transportation Commission.
System’s Response to Findings
Government Auditing Standards requires the auditor to perform limited procedures on the System’s response to the finding identified in our audit and described in the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Responses. The System’s response was not subjected to the other auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on the response.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the System’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the System’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

2024-001 Financial Reporting and Closing
Material Weakness
Criteria:
Management is responsible for the preparation of the basic financial statements and all accompanying information as well as representation contained therein, and the fair presentation in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. This requires management to perform a year-end closing process to accumulate, reconcile and summarize information for inclusion in the annual financial statements.
Condition:
During the audit we identified adjustments which were posted as part of the audit, for the following:
$223,745 to decrease net position due to prior year audit adjustments. $547,090 to decrease LTF revenue and increase unearned revenue recognized based on eligible operating costs.
$86,800 to correct under-allocation of interest revenue and decreasing grant revenue. $181,227 to record a prior period adjustment for an overstatement of amounts previously reported for subscription liability and expense.
Cause:
The City’s procedures did not allow for timely adjustments required for financial reporting.
Effect:
Journal entries were posted, and adjustment made to the financial statements, in order to fairly present the financial statements.
Recommendation:
We recommend the City review its closing policies and procedures in place to ensure amounts are properly captured, reconciled, and reported in a timely manner.
Management’s Response:
The City acknowledges the auditor’s finding and supports the goal of improving year-end financial reporting processes to ensure timely, accurate, and complete financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
21 City of Beaumont California
Transit System
Schedule of Findings and Responses
June 30, 2024
During the FY 2023-24 audit cycle, several adjustments related to the transit fund—such as prior period corrections, revenue recognition, and liability adjustments—were proposed late in the process and required the City to post entries in the next year as to not delay the completion of the City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR). This is similar to FY 2022-23 audit process and as a result has initiated this finding.
Transit Audit Coordination and Reporting Deadlines:
A key factor contributing to this issue was the delayed timing of the transit audit overseen by the Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC) and its independent audit firm. The engagement began after the City had substantially completed its financial close, resulting in audit entries that were not available in time to be incorporated during the City’s normal year- end process.
While there is no statutory deadline requiring cities to issue audited financial statements within a specific timeframe, the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) recommends that ACFRs be issued within 180 days of fiscal year-end as a best practice for transparency and accountability. Furthermore, the City is subject to contractual deadlines related to grant reporting, bond covenants, and oversight agency requirements, many of which are dependent on the timely issuance of audited financials.
Delays resulting from late audit adjustments increase the risk of financial misstatement, reduce stakeholder confidence, and conflict with GASB guidance, which emphasizes the importance of presenting financial information that reflects conditions as of year-end based on information known or knowable at that time.
To address these concerns, the City held a coordination meeting with RCTC and its audit firm. All parties agreed to advance the timing of the transit audit so that it aligns with the City’s financial audit and closing schedule in future years. This adjustment will help ensure that all necessary audit entries are identified and posted during the normal year-end closing process.
Corrective Actions:
1.Aligned Audit Scheduling:
The City will work proactively with RCTC to ensure the transit audit begins earlier and is completed concurrently with the Citywide audit timeline.
2. Formalized Coordination Protocols:
The City will establish clear communication channels and timelines with RCTC and external auditors to ensure key financial data is reviewed, adjusted, and finalized within the City’s closing calendar.

Schedule of Findings and Responses
June 30, 2024
3. Policy Enhancements:
Internal policies and procedures will be updated to include guidelines for incorporating component unit or agency audit adjustments and a requirement for early engagement when audit dependencies exist.
4. Training and Compliance Monitoring:
City finance staff will receive training on GFOA and GASB guidance regarding timely reporting and will implement checklists and review processes to ensure compliance with financial reporting obligations tied to grants, bonds, and other oversight entities.
Timeline:
These actions will be implemented for the FY 2024-25 audit cycle, with progress tracked quarterly to ensure deadlines are met and coordination is maintained.
Responsible Party:
Finance Director, in coordination with RCTC and its audit firm.

To the Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Beaumont
Beaumont, California
To the Board of Commissioners
Riverside County Transportation Commission
Riverside, California
We have audited the financial statements of the Transit System (the System) of the City of Beaumont, California (the City) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024, and have issued our report thereon dated March 31, 2025. Professional standards require that we advise you of the following matters relating to our audit.
Our Responsibility in Relation to the Financial Statement Audit under Generally Accepted Auditing Standards and Government Auditing Standards
As communicated in our letter dated July 8, 2024, our responsibility, as described by professional standards, is to form and express an opinion about whether the financial statements that have been prepared by management with your oversight are presented fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our audit of the financial statements does not relieve you or management of your respective responsibilities.
Our responsibility, as prescribed by professional standards, is to plan and perform our audit to obtain reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit of financial statements includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, as part of our audit, we considered the internal control of the System solely for the purpose of determining our audit procedures and not to provide any assurance concerning such internal control.
We are also responsible for communicating significant matters related to the audit that are, in our professional judgment, relevant to your responsibilities in overseeing the financial reporting process.
However, we are not required to design procedures for the purpose of identifying other matters to communicate to you.
We have provided our comments regarding a control deficiency during our audit in our Independent Auditor’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards dated March 31, 2025.
Planned Scope and Timing of the Audit
We conducted our audit consistent with the planned scope and timing we previously communicated to you.
2 Compliance with All Ethics Requirements Regarding Independence The engagement team, others in our firm, as appropriate, our firm, and other firms utilized in the engagement, if applicable, have complied with all relevant ethical requirements regarding independence.
Qualitative Aspects of the Entity’s Significant Accounting Practices Significant Accounting Policies
Management has the responsibility to select and use appropriate accounting policies. A summary of the significant accounting policies adopted by the System is included in Note 2 to the financial statements. As described in Note 2, the City changed accounting policies related to accounting for accounting changes and error corrections to adopt the provisions of GASB Statement No. 100, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. Accordingly, the the presentation and disclosure requirements have been applied to the financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2024. No matters have come to our attention that would require us, under professional standards, to inform you about (1) the methods used to account for significant unusual transactions and (2) the effect of significant accounting policies in controversial or emerging areas for which there is a lack of authoritative guidance or consensus.
Accounting Estimates
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management and are based on management’s current judgments. Those judgments are normally based on knowledge and experience about past and current events and assumptions about future events. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to the financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ markedly from management’s current judgments. No such sensitive accounting estimates were identified.
Financial Statement Disclosures
Certain financial statement disclosures involve significant judgment and are particularly sensitive because of their significance to financial statement users. There were no financial statement disclosures that we consider to be particularly sensitive or involve significant judgement.
Significant Difficulties Encountered during the Audit
We encountered no significant difficulties in dealing with management relating to the performance of the audit.
Uncorrected and Corrected Misstatements
For purposes of this communication, professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements identified during the audit, other than those that we believe are trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management. Further, professional standards require us to also communicate the effect of uncorrected misstatements related to prior periods on the relevant classes of transactions, account balances or disclosures, and the financial statements as a whole. Uncorrected misstatements or matters underlying those uncorrected misstatements could potentially cause future-period financial statements to be materially misstated, even though the uncorrected misstatements are immaterial to the financial statements currently under audit.
3 The following misstatements that we identified as a result of our audit procedures were brought to the attention of, and corrected by, management:
Overstatement of net position due to prior year audit adjustments $ 223,745 Overstatement of operating assistance grant revenue and understatement of unearned revenue $ 547,090
Overstatement of grant revenue and understatement of interest revenue $ 86,800
Prior period adjustment for an overstatement of amounts previously reported for subscription liability and expense $ 181,227 The following summarizes uncorrected financial statement misstatements whose effects in the current and prior periods, as determined by management, are immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate, to the financial statements taken as a whole.
Understatement of LCTOP revenues and eligible expenditures $ 9,384 The effect of this uncorrected misstatement does not impact net position.
Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, professional standards define a disagreement with management as a matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, concerning a financial accounting, reporting, or auditing matter, which could be significant to the the System’s financial statements or the auditor’s report. No such disagreements arose during the course of the audit.
Circumstances that Affect the Form and Content of the Auditor’s Report For purposes of this letter, professional standards require that we communicate any circumstances that affect the form and content of our auditor’s report. An emphasis of matter paragraph was added noting that the System’s financial statements present only the System and do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of the City as of June 30, 2024, and the changes in its financial position or, where applicable, its cash flows for the year then ended. Additionally, the report included an emphasis of matter relating to the correction of an error as disclosed in Note 11.
Representations Requested from Management
We have requested certain written representations from management which are included in the management representation letter dated March 31, 2025.
Management’s Consultations with Other Accountants
In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and accounting matters. Management informed us that, and to our knowledge, there were no consultations with other accountants regarding auditing and accounting matters.
4 Other Significant Matters, Findings, or Issues
In the normal course of our professional association with the System, we generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and auditing standards, significant events or transactions that occurred during the year, operating conditions affecting the entity, and operating plans and strategies that may affect the risks of material misstatement. None of the matters discussed resulted in a condition to our retention as the System’s auditors.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the City Council of the City, the Board of Commissioners of the Riverside County Transportation Commission, and their respective management and is not intended to be, and should not be, used by anyone other than these specified parties.

SUBJECT: Consent to Transfer – Verizon Wireless Lease at 11250 Palmer Avenue
Description Authorize the Mayor to sign a consent form acknowledging and approving Vertical Bridge’s lease and site management arrangement related to Verizon's telecommunication facility located at 11250 Palmer Avenue.
Background and Analysis:
In November 2017, the City of Beaumont entered into a Land Lease Agreement with Los Angeles SMSA Limited Partnership, dba Verizon Wireless to lease a portion of the lift station property at 11250 Palmer Avenue for telecommunication operations (Attachment A). Verizon has a tentative agreement with Vertical Bridge to exclusively lease, operate, and manage its interests in the site. As part of this transaction, Vertical Bridge will:
Lease back a portion of the site to Verizon, and
Potentially sublease to other wireless telecommunications and fiber companies.
The City’s original land lease agreement with Verizon remains in place and is not being assigned to Vertical Bridge. However, the lease terms require the City’s formal consent to allow such subleasing or transfers. Section 17 of the attached lease agreement states in part, “Tenant shall not have the right to sublease the Premises, in whole or in part, without Landlord’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.”
By signing the attached form, the City consents to the proposed transfers and acknowledges that no additional payments are owed by Verizon or Vertical Bridge in relation to this transaction (Attachment B).
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. The consent does not alter the financial terms of the existing lease.
The estimated cost of preparing this staff report is $300.
Recommended Action:
Authorize the Mayor to sign the consent form related to Vertical Bridge’s management of Verizon’s leased site at 11250 Palmer Avenue.

As noted in our earlier correspondence, these Transfers will not change, amend or alter the current Lease; however, the terms of the Lease may require your consent to these Transfers. By countersigning below, you hereby consent to the Transfers and acknowledge that no additional payments are owed in connection with them.

Staff Report
TO: City Council
FROM: Elizabeth Gibbs, City Manager
Darron Usher, Principal Management Analyst
DATE April 15, 2025
SUBJECT: Adoption of the City of Beaumont 2025 Strategic Plan
Description This report presents the final draft of the City of Beaumont Strategic Plan 2025 for review and adoption. The plan outlines the City’s core strategic priorities, goals, and action steps for FY 2025/2026.
Background and Analysis:
The City of Beaumont conducted a Strategic Planning W orkshop on January 28, 2025, bringing together City Council members, executive staff, and key stakeholders to identify priorities and shape the City’s strategic direction. The result is the City of Beaumont Strategic Plan 2025, which provides a two-year roadmap aligned with the City's long-term vision and current operational needs.
The Strategic Plan is structured around five key targets:
1. Communications & Relationships – Focused on improving citywide engagement and public trust.
2. Infrastructure, Projects & Traffic – Prioritizing capital improvements and transportation enhancements.
3. Economic Development & Downtown Revitalization – Advancing the local economy and improving the downtown corridor.
4. Financial Stability & Resource Development – Ensuring fiscal health and diversified revenue.
5. Quality of Life & Community Well-Being – Enhancing amenities, parks, and resident services.
Each target includes detailed goals and action plans with responsible parties and timelines. High-priority projects include the Pennsylvania Grade Separation, Police Station design, Sports Park improvements, and downtown business attraction efforts.
The Strategic Plan also incorporates a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis and establishes metrics for monitoring implementation.
The Strategic Plan is intended to guide policy decisions, support annual budget planning, and ensure transparency with the community. Staff is currently reviewing software that can be a vital tool in tracking the progress of the goals set in the Strategic Plan.
Fiscal Impact:
The cost of preparing this staff report is estimated to be $300.
There is no immediate fiscal impact associated with adopting the Strategic Plan. Future implementation of identified projects and initiatives may have financial implications, which will be addressed during the annual budget process or as part of individual project funding considerations.
Recommended Action:
Approve and adopt the City of Beaumont 2025 Strategic Plan.

Sunshine Sanchez, Management Analyst
DATE April 15, 2025
SUBJECT: Follow-Up Report No. 3 – Local State of Emergency – Sewer Mainline Failure and Emergency Repairs in Fairway Canyon
Description Local emergency due to the sewer mainline failure in Fairway Canyon .
Background and Analysis:
On March 3, 2025, City staff was notified of a major sewer mainline failure in the Fairway Canyon community caused by slope erosion behind Hogan Drive homes. The incident led to a manhole collapse and subsequent 15-inch sewer mainline failure, resulting in a raw sewage spill and the need for emergency response measures.
On March 4, 2025, City Council adopted a Resolution titled, “A Resolution Of The City Council Of The City Of Beaumont Declaring A Local Emergency And Authorizing The City Manager To Take Necessary Action”, which authorized emergency expenditures in an amount not to exceed $500,000, directed staff to provide ongoing reports at each subsequent City Council meeting under California Public Contract Code Section 22050, and authorized the City Manager to take all necessary actions to mitigate further damage and ensure public health and safety.
On March 18, 2025, staff brought a follow-up status report regarding the emergency repairs in Fairway Canyon. No action was taken, but updated pictures were provided, along with an estimated amount of $21,000 that has been expended.
On April 1, 2025, staff brought a follow-up status report regarding the emergency repairs in Fairway Canyon. The full financial impact to date was $432,101 including requisitions added and costs on bypass pumping, equipment, and fuel. The City Manager was approved for an additional $500,000 to increase the total allocation to $1,000,000 to cover the costs for repairs.
Construction activity update from April 1-April 9, 2025:
April 1–2: Formed and poured concrete for encasement pillars and manhole foundation; welded encasement pipe and inserted SDR sewer line. Placed encasement on pedestals and aligned with new manholes. Formed second manhole bottom and invert; sod laid near the sand bunker. April 3: Set the first barrel on the new manhole. The site transitioned off bypass pumping and the final gravity line connection was completed. Bypass hoses disassembled and staged for removal.
April 4: Assisted with bypass equipment removal, picked up steel plates, and completed general site cleanup.
April 7: Relayed plates poured concrete around the first manhole barrel and began dirt work.
April 8: Sand was blown into the pipeline and around the bedding. Forms, shoring plates, and I-beams were removed. Continued dirt work and completed the second manhole with the barrel, cone, lid, and ring. April 9: Grouted joints of both manholes, progressed dirt work, and began riprap placement along ditch sides.
Staff received invoices from Weaver Grading for $295,000 and Charles King Co. for $23,552. Staff has also spent $3,640 on fuel needed for the bypass pump, along with miscellaneous equipment needed to address this emergency. The costs are displayed in the table below:
Expenditures as of April 9, 2025 Encumbered Amount Spent Fuel for bypass pumps $ 1,307.00 $ 3,640.00 Miscellaneous equipment $ 1,294.00 $ 1,294.00 Charles King (Bypass pumps) $ 40,000.00 $ 23,552.00 Weaver Grading $ 389,500.00 $ 295,000.00 Total $ 432,101.00 $ 323,486.00
Below are updated photos from the worksite with progress being made to address the emergency:
Figure 1 – Completed Manhole Structure
Figure 2 - Manhole bottom with full-height channels
Figure 3 - Second Manhole Update
Fiscal Impact:
Labor and material costs are being tracked to identify further expenses. A future budget amendment may be necessary to support ongoing emergency response and repair efforts.
The estimated cost to prepare this staff report is $300.
Recommended Action:
Direct staff to return at the next Council meeting with a follow-up report on emergency response efforts, expenditures, and timeline updates.

Re: CUCCAC Action – January 31, 2025
Dear Robert Vestal:
The Construction Industry Force Account Council (CIFAC) filed a request with the California Uniform Construction Cost Accounting Commission (Commission) to perform an accounting review of the business practices used by the City of Beaumont on the City of Beaumont Park Improvement Project 24-05. CIFAC presented evidence that the work undertaken by the City of Beaumont, allegedly violated Public Contract Code (PCC) section 22042(c). At the time the alleged violation occurred, the provisions of PCC section 22042 were as follows:
The commission shall review the accounting procedures of any participating public agency where an interested party presents evidence that the work undertaken by the public agency falls within any of the following categories:
(a) Is to be performed by a public agency after rejection of all bids, claiming work can be done less expensively by the public agency.
(b) Exceeded the force account limits.
(c) Has been improperly classified as maintenance.
After consideration of the evidence and deliberation, the Commission found the City of Beaumont to be in violation of PCC section 22042(c).
Pursuant to PCC section 22044(b), the City of Beaumont “…shall present the commission’s findings to its governing body within 30 calendar days of receipt of written notice of the findings…”. Additionally, “…that governing body shall conduct a public hearing with regard to the commission’s findings within 60 calendar days of receipt of the findings.”
Furthermore, the Commission recommended the City of Beaumont contact CIFAC to request training and education on the provisions of the California Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act (Act) in order to avoid similar violations of the Act in the future. The Commission suggested that CUCCAC Commissioners that represent “Cities” be contacted for inclusion in the training and education.

Staff Report
TO: City Council
FROM: Darron Usher, Principal Management Analyst
DATE April 15, 2025
SUBJECT: Temporary Suspension and Revision of BMC Ch. 17.11.050 – Offsite Improvements
Description Public hearing and consideration of a proposed temporary suspension and revision of Beaumont Municipal Code Section 17.11.050 – Offsite Improvements to provide relief to single-family residential property owners seeking to make improvements to their property.
Background and Analysis:
Beaumont Municipal Code Section 17.11.050 establishes the requirements for offsite improvements, including curbs, gutters, sidewalks, and undergrounding of utilities, for new construction or additions to existing structures. Currently, these requirements a pply to single-family homeowners constructing accessory structures over 300 square feet, such as garages or patios.
These mandates have posed significant financial and logistical burdens on homeowners. For example, a recent applicant proposing a detached garage on their property was required to underground utilities, construct a full-length sidewalk, and perform a half-width street overlay—substantially increasing project costs despite incorporating an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) to reduce requirements.
On March 4, 2025, the City Council discussed options for relief and directed staff to pursue a temporary suspension of these offsite requirements for single-family residential accessory improvements. The proposed change would remain in effect for six months, allowing time to complete the City's Comprehensive Zoning Code Update and evaluate potential long-term amendments.
On April 9, 2025, this item was presented to the Planning Commission. At this meeting, staff provided the redlines of recommended changes. The Planning Commission voted
unanimously to forward the presented ordinance amendments to City Council for adoption.
Staff has prepared a redlined version of Section 17.11.050 to clarify that single -family residences are excluded from offsite improvement requirements during this suspension period (Attachment C).
CEQA:
The proposed ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines. The proposed change does not result in a physical change to the environment and will not increase the intensity of development. Therefore, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility the ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment.
Consistency with Adopted Goals, Plans, and Programs:
General Plan Consistency
The proposed revision supports General Plan Implementation LUCD5 (Development Review) – “Work to find efficiencies and make development permitting as simple as possible.”
Strategic Plan Consistency
The proposed recommendation is consistent with Strategic Plan Target 3, which focuses on revisiting City codes and zoning for improved effectiveness.
Public Communications Received:
A 20-day public notice was published in the Press Enterprise on March 20, 2025. At the time of this report, no public comments have been received.
