SECTION 5. The disposition of Property and the proposed action to adopt a 654

Page 3 of 3 ends

Replacement Housing Plan is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the disposition of the property may have a significant effect on the environment because the existing improvements on the property will remain in their present condition and the current use will continue unchanged.

SECTION 6. Pursuant to Government Code Section 65402(a), the disposition of the Property is consistent with the City of Belmont General Plan in that it is in alignment with Land Use Element Policy 2.17-3 which establishes priorities for City funding to provide support for affordable housing, as well as Housing Element Program H1.2 which calls for the use of City affordable housing funds to be used to leverage other funding sources to support the construction of affordable housing. The disposition of the Property will fulfill these objectives by providing significant funding for future deed restricted affordable housing developments that will serve a range of household types and income levels. In addition, it is consistent with Land Use Element Policy 2-23-4 which encourages adaptive reuse of historic structures as an option for preserving sites threatened by degradation in that it provides a pathway for private resources to be used to cover deferred maintenance on the property while preserving the historic character of the exterior.

SECTION 7. The proceeds of the sale of the Property will be reimbursed to the Housing Successor Fund 275 and used to support the expansion of affordable housing opportunities within the City.

Summary Report on 1000 O’Neill Avenue in Belmont 1
I. Introduction
The former Redevelopment Agency of the City of Belmont (“RDA”) was dissolved in 2012 in accordance with California Law, and the Belmont City Council approved a resolution that provides for the City of Belmont (“City”) to serve as the Successor Agency to the former Redevelopment Agency, including its Housing Successor obligations. The final dissolution of the former redevelopment plan was approved by the San Mateo County Oversight Board on February 14, 2022, with the California Department of Finance's approval following on April 22, 2022. The Housing Site that is the subject of this report is located within the boundaries of the former Los Costanos Redevelopment Project Area.

As the Housing Successor, the City is responsible for winding down the housing activities of the former RDA and overseeing its housing assets. One of these housing assets is a residential property located at 1000 O’Neill Avenue in Belmont, which was listed on the Inventory of Assets prepared by the City.
1 The Housing Site consists of land and an historic building (referred to as the Emmett House), which was relocated from its original site and remodeled into a twounit residential building with a stand-alone garage. The former RDA redeveloped this property to preserve the City’s history and provide two units of low and moderate income housing. Until June 2025, the building was occupied by residents and is currently vacant.

As most of the funding for the Housing Site came from tax increment funds, the City as the Successor Agency must secure approval of any proposed sale or lease agreement after a public hearing in conformance with California Health and Safety Code Section 33433 (“Section 33433”). In addition, a copy of the proposed sale or lease agreement and a report that describes specific financing elements of the proposed transaction must be available for public inspection prior to the public hearing.

This Summary Report, which is also known as the “Reuse Appraisal,” has been prepared in accordance with Section 33433 and contains the following required information regarding the proposed transactions for the Housing Site:
• The cost of the agreement to the Successor Agency and the former RDA, including land acquisition costs, clearance costs, relocation costs, the costs of any improvements, plus the expected interest on any loans or bonds to finance the agreements. • The estimated value of the interest to be conveyed or leased, determined at the highest and best use permitted under the plan.
• The estimated value of the interest to be conveyed or leased, determined at the use and with the conditions, covenants, and development costs required by the sale or lease. • An explanation regarding why the sale or lease of the property will assist in the elimination of blight.
• The purchase price or sum of the lease payments that the lessor will be required to make during the term of the lease.
1 This property was listed on the “City of Belmont Inventory of Assets Received Pursuant to Health and Safety Code section 34176 (a)(2) Housing Successor Owned Real Property (Section 34176(e)(1)),” which was prepared on July 31, 2012, and for which the California Department of Finance did not object to in a letter dated August 30, 2012. 658
Summary Report on 1000 O’Neill Avenue in Belmont 2
• If the sale price or total rental amount is less than the fair market value of the interest to be conveyed or leased, determined at the highest and best use consistent with the redevelopment plan, then the Successor Agency shall provide the reasons for the difference.

This report is organized into the following chapters that summarize the findings for each property pursuant to Section 33433:

I. Introduction– provides an overview of relevant legal requirements related to the proposed sale or lease of the property.

II. Project Description– describes the property’s current use and operation as affordable housing.

III. Summary of the Proposed Agreement– outlines the major provisions of the Proposed Agreement, including the City’s and the Future Property Owner’s responsibilities.

IV. Cost of Agreement to the City– describes the historical expenditures of the City and former RDA, potential revenues from the ground lease of the properties and the value of the tax increment generated by the property.

V. Highest and Best Use Value– presents the value of the property at its highest and best use, as determined by an independent appraisal.

VI. Reuse Value– estimates the value of the Property to be conveyed, determined at the use and with the conditions, covenants, and development costs required for the sale and operation of the Property (referred to as the "reuse value" of the Property).

VII. Blight Alleviation– explains why the sale and operation of the Property pursuant to the Proposed Agreement will assist in the elimination of blight.

Summary Report on 1000 O’Neill Avenue in Belmont 3
II. Property Description
This Housing Site is located on the north side of 1000 O’Neill Avenue (“1000 O’Neill”) in downtown Belmont and currently consists of three assessor parcels: Assessor Parcel Number (APN) 045-261-010, 045-261-020 and 045-261-030.
2 The property is within walking distance to
downtown businesses and several businesses along El Camino Real including the Namaste Plaza Supermarket and Safeway Supermarket. The Housing Site is also within a walking distance of the Belmont Caltrain Station, which is also served by bus transit lines.

According to the Inventory of Assets, the total square footage of the three parcels is 12,632 square feet, although the San Mateo County Property Maps Portal indicates that the property area is about 12,800 square feet, and the 2025 residential appraisal indicates that the site area is about 12,977 square feet.
3 An historic two-story house is located on the property, which was moved from a prior Downtown location and has been renovated into a duplex residence with a stand-alone garage that was built separately. The garage accommodates two vehicles and includes a driveway that can accommodate two additional vehicles. The 2025 residential appraisal indicates that the residential building area is 3,623 square feet based on measurements performed onsite for each floor as shown on the attached “Building Sketch.”

1. Current and Prior Use
The former RDA purchased the land at 1000 O’Neill in 1994. The former RDA subsequently purchased the property at 843-847 Ralston Avenue (APN 045-182-260) in 1998, which was the original location of the historic building that was moved to its current location at 1000 O’Neill.

Once relocated to 1000 O’Neill, the historic building (known as the “Emmett House”) was then redeveloped into its current use as two affordable housing units.

When the property at 843-847 Ralston Avenue was purchased, the historic Emmet House had commercial space on the ground floor and two residential units on the second floor. A portion of the land at 843-847 Ralston Avenue was sold to build the Village Center project, which represented 13% of the property purchased for the Village Center. After the Emmet House was relocated to 1000 O’Neill, the remaining land was subsequently redeveloped into a small public plaza adjacent to the Village Center.

Once moved, the Emmett House was renovated and converted into a duplex and then rented to qualifying moderate income households beginning in March 2011 under the terms of a lease agreement with each household (as amended over time). Until 2025, the property was rented to the same households who began renting the property in 2011.

The property is now vacant because the former residents were no longer income eligible for low and moderate income housing. City staff is monitoring the property on an ongoing basis to 2 The property street address is also referred to as “Oneill Avenue” or “Oneill Street”. 3 The City retained the appraiser, Carolyn Ulrich, to prepare a residential appraisal for the property, which was performed as of May 9, 2025.

ensure that it remains secure. One household moved out as of February 2025 and the remaining household moved out as of June 2025.

The property was managed and operated by Whitley Property Management, Inc. (“Whitley”) under a contract with the City of Belmont through July 2025. Whitley invoiced and received payments from residents and oversaw building maintenance and repairs, which were billed to the City of Belmont if rents did not annually cover expenses.

III. Summary of the Proposed Agreement
The City as the Successor Agency proposes to sell the Housing Site or “Property” on the open market to a future “Owner” with the obligation to maintain the Property in good condition and consistent with its historic character.

A Regulatory Agreement and Declaration of Restrictive Covenants would be recorded on the property upon execution of the Purchase and Sale Agreement that requires the following of the Owner and any subsequent Owners:
• Maintain the Property in good condition and repair, at Owner's sole cost and expense, including without limitation maintaining the historic character of the exterior façade of the home, removing any graffiti from the Property within five (5) days after notice of such graffiti.
• Maintain all landscaping and plantings adjacent to the Property frontage in good condition and upkeep.
• Comply with the requirements and procedures set forth in Article VII of Chapter 7 of the City Municipal Code, including, but not limited to, obtaining the City's prior written approval to "alter", "relocate", or "demolish" the exterior of the landmark, as defined in Section 7-180 of the City Municipal Code.
• Maintain the Property in compliance with all applicable federal, state and local laws, including without limitation the laws of the City, and promptly, upon notification that the Property is not in compliance with all applicable laws, do all things necessary to bring the Property into and keep the Property in compliance with all applicable laws. • Comply with all state and local laws, in effect from time to time, prohibiting discrimination or segregation by reason of race, color, creed, religion, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, ancestry, age, disability, or national origin.
• Inform any transferee of title to the Property and any tenants at the Property of these requirements.

Summary Report on 1000 O’Neill Avenue in Belmont 5
IV. Cost of Agreement to the City
This section describes the estimated historical expenditures by the former RDA and the City, as well as the historical and projected future revenues for the property. The cost of the Agreement to the City is defined as the net cost to the City, which is the difference between estimated expenditures and revenues.

Given the nature of the proposed Agreement, future costs and revenues cannot be accurately predicted. Therefore, the projections presented in this report are considered the best estimates currently available based upon data as of November 2025 in Fiscal Year (FY) 2025/26. In fact, actual costs and revenues to the City may vary from these estimates.

1. Estimated City Cost
The City and former RDA costs consist of initial project expenditures that were incurred starting in 1994 by the former RDA to purchase the property and the subsequent expenditures that have occurred over the past three decades through FY 2025/26 by both the former RDA and the City.

As the City does not have complete records of the former RDA’s and the City’s expenditures for all years, cost estimates have been made where appropriate as described below.

Table 1 shows the initial project expenditures and funding sources that were used as of FY 1998/99. In summary, the initial project expenditures consist of the following:
• Original purchase cost– As described earlier, the 1000 O’Neill property was acquired by the former RDA and was listed on the Inventory of Housing Assets. This Inventory indicates that the property was acquired on 8/2/1994 at a cost of $210,000, which was funded with low moderate income housing funds. The asset value was listed as $210,000 as of February 2012. • Additional Purchase Cost for Land and Building– According to a summary report prepared by City staff in 2007 regarding the Emmett House, the former RDA paid a total of $750,000 to purchase the land and building originally located at 843-847 Ralston Avenue. 4 The purchase price included the purchase of two land parcels and up to $5,000 was set-aside to reimburse the owner for improvements made to the two residential units located on the upper floor. As shown in Table 1, the former RDA was reported to have paid $8,907 in transaction costs, which may have included this reimbursement for improvements. • Sources– A portion of the 843-847 Ralston Avenue property (5,276 square feet) was sold for the Village Center project, which represented 13% of the land purchased for the Village Center. The RDA was credited with 13% of the purchase price or $98,145 (valued at $18.60/SF) toward the property purchase cost. The RDA reportedly funded the purchase cost based on an equal split between the low and moderate income housing fund and non-housing funds. As described earlier, the remaining 3,515 square feet of land was redeveloped into a public plaza, and the value of the remaining land is estimated to be $65,472 at $18.60 per square foot. The building value of the Emmett House is estimated to equal the original property acquisition cost less the land value for these two components. 4 Emmett House, Detailed Background and Analysis of Alternatives, February 13, 2007. 662

2. Estimated Revenue to the City
The City and former RDA have derived revenues from various sources, and the City is no longer receiving revenues because the property is vacant. Table 3 shows historical and projected revenues through June 2025, which consist of the following:
• Historical Rent Payments– The two households who occupied the property paid monthly rent according to the terms of their respective leases as amended over the years. Historical rent payments were tallied based on these lease agreements and confirmed for recent years based on invoices and financial statements prepared by Whitley Property Management. • Projected Lease Revenues Until Purchase– As the property is now vacant, no future lease payments are assumed until sale.

V. Estimated Value at Highest and Best Use
As described earlier, the Housing Site was acquired by the former RDA in 1995 and listed on the Inventory of Housing Assets, which indicates that the asset value was $210,000 as of 2012.

The City retained the appraiser, Carolyn Ulrich, to prepare a residential appraisal of the market value for the property, which was performed as of May 9, 2025. The appraiser’s opinion of value is $2,225,000, which is based on an evaluation of existing property characteristics and conditions without use or affordability restrictions, its location within the City of Belmont and a review of comparable residential properties in Belmont. The appraisal further states that utilizing the existing structure as a duplex residence is financially feasible and the maximally productive use based on current market conditions.

By way of comparison, the median home price for San Mateo County was reported as $338,709 in July 1995 and $2,189,000 in September 2025 according to the California Association of Realtors (CAR).6 For purposes of this reuse appraisal, the value at the property at its highest and best use is equal to the appraiser’s opinion of value, and a duplex residence without any use or affordability restrictions is considered the highest and best use of the property.

VI. Estimated Fair Reuse Value
The reuse value is the value of the Housing Site given the allowable development program and the reuse restrictions associated with the properties given the conditions, covenants, and development obligations that will be required in the Purchase and Sale Agreement and associated agreements, as summarized earlier in Chapter III.

These restrictions include maintaining the property in good condition. According to the Building Assessment Report prepared by CSG Consultants in July 2024, the property needs to be repaired.

Appendix Table 3 summarizes the estimated cost to repair the property at about $209,000, which includes the following types of repairs:
• Critical Repairs (0-1 Year)– Exterior painting (including hand cut painting), repair of the front, rear and side yard porches, numerous electrical and plumbing repairs, exterior wet wall repair, and termite abatement.
• Urgent Repairs (1-2 Years)– Repair of double hung, weathered windows and multiple doors. • Recommended Repairs (2-5 Years)- Interior painting, repair of the roof and perimeter fencing, and installation of a garbage disposal.

Under Health and Safety Code Section 33433, the City is required to explain the difference if the sale price is less than the fair market value of the interest to be conveyed, determined at the highest and best use consistent with the general plan and zoning. As described in Chapter III, the City as the Successor Agency proposes to sell the Housing Site at market value to a future 6 CAR does not report historical data for the City of Belmont for the past three decades but does report countywide data. 667
Summary Report on 1000 O’Neill Avenue in Belmont 11
property owner subject to the Purchase and Sale Agreement and associated agreements. The consideration to be received by the City is not less than the fair reuse value at the use and with the covenants and conditions and costs authorized by the sale of the property.

VII. Blight Elimination and Conformance with the
Redevelopment Plan
The property at 1000 O’Neill Avenue is currently vacant, and the net proceeds from its future sale would be used to fund projects that provide affordable housing to low and moderate income households. In accordance with Section 33433, the conveyance of property that results in the provision of housing for Low- or Moderate-Income persons satisfies the blight elimination criteria imposed by Section 33433. Thus, the Project fulfills the blight elimination requirement.

The Los Costanos Community Development Plan (the Plan) was adopted by ordinance on November 24, 1981, and Amended and Restated by ordinance on September 10, 1991. Based upon a review of the Plan, the disposition of the Housing Site is consistent with the Plan. The Plan states that the Agency is authorized to dispose real property so long as it reserves powers and controls to prevent transfer, retention, or use of property for speculative purposes which will be covered by the proposed deed restrictions. Furthermore, the Plan promotes the development and retention of low- and moderate-income affordable housing through public/private partnerships. Finally, the Plan promotes the rehabilitation of existing properties, and the property disposition would also promote its ongoing improvement and rehabilitation by the future owner. 668

I. INTRODUCTION
The City of Belmont ("City") owns that certain parcel of real property located at 1000 O’Neill Avenue in the City of Belmont (the "Land") improved with a residential duplex with a total of two (2) units (the "Improvements") (the Land and the Improvements are collectively referred to as the "Property"), and which was acquired by the Belmont Redevelopment Agency (RDA) and transferred to the City in its capacity as Housing Successor to the RDA,. The City intends to sell the Property to market rate purchasers and reinvest the proceeds into the Housing Fund to be used to assist in the development of additional affordable housing development. The units located at the property are Moderate Income and restricted to households earning less than 120% of Area Median Income (AMI) for San Mateo County. The disposition is part of a strategy which supports the goals of increasing the overall supply of housing and the production of affordable housing opportunities consistent with the City’s General Plan Housing Element.

This Replacement Housing Plan for the Project has been developed pursuant to Health and Safety Code 33413.5. Providing affordable housing is a commitment the City continues to foster through alliances with affordable housing developers that have proven themselves to be capable of providing affordable housing developments acceptable to the public, meeting sustainability standards and serving extremely low, very low, low, and moderate income families.

II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed disposition of the Property, if approved, will generate proceeds which will be re-invested in the City’s Housing Fund to support additional affordable housing production within the City (the “Project”). The disposition, if approved, is scheduled to be completed in 675
1750\40\4090795.1
early 2026. The Project is consistent with the General Plan Housing Element in that it supports the production of additional affordable housing.

The Property currently consists of a duplex building with two 3-bedroom units. Both units in the Property were previously leased to moderate income households. The prior tenants vacated the property in June 2025 due to no longer being income-qualified for the units.

The Belmont Avenue project, currently under construction by ROEM Housing at 803 Belmont Avenue (“the Replacement Project”) has been identified to provide affordable units to replace the loss of the two moderate income units provided on the Property. The replacement Project will result in the construction of one hundred and twenty five (125) units, including one manager's unit, that will be affordable to households earning between 30% and 70% of the area median income ("AMI"). The Replacement Project will include 52 one-bedroom, 40 twobedroom, and 33 three-bedroom units. All one hundred and twenty-five (125) units will be restricted for fifty-five (55) years pursuant to a regulatory agreement that has been recorded against the project.

III. LOCATION
The Property is located at 1000 O’Neill Avenue in the City of Belmont, County of San Mateo. The surrounding neighborhood is a mix of single family, multi-family residential and commercial uses and is in close proximity to public transportation. 676
1750\40\4090795.1
The Replacement Property is located at 803 Belmont Avenue in the City of Belmont, County of San Mateo and is approximately 1.0 miles away from the Property. The surrounding neighborhood is a mix of single family, multi-family residential and commercial uses and is in close proximity to public transportation.

IV. FINANCING
The Replacement Project is estimated to cost approximately $136 million. Secured sources of funding include the following: development funding from the County of San Mateo in an amount of $13,900,000, Project Based Section 8 Certificates from the County for 20 units, 4% tax credits from the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee, private equity investment in an approximate amount of $78,662,000, and a private construction loan in the approximate amount of $32,447,000. In addition, a City loan totaling $3.5 million has also been provided for the project.

V. INAPPLICABILITY OF ARTICLE XXXIV
Article XXXIV of the California Constitution states that “No low rent housing project shall hereafter be developed, constructed, or acquired in any manner by any state public body until, a majority of the qualified electors of the city, town or county, as the case may be, in which it is proposed to develop, construct, or acquire the same, voting upon such issue, approve such project by voting in favor thereof at an election to be held for that purpose, or at any general or special election.”
To clarify the requirements of Article XXXIV, the Legislature enacted the Public Housing Election Implementation Law (California Health and Safety Code Sections 37000- 677
1750\40\4090795.1
37002). The City has previously determined that the Replacement Project is excluded from the definition of “low-rent housing project” as defined in Section 1 of Article XXXIV of the California Constitution, and therefore does not trigger the voting requirement, because it meets the criteria defined in Health and Safety Code.

VI. RESIDENTIAL UNITS TO BE REMOVED AND REPLACED
The two (2) units in the Project (the "Units to Be Sold for Market Rate") were previously leased to Moderate Income Households earning less than 120% AMI but are currently vacant. The Units to Be Sold for Market Rate consist of two 3-bedroom units. In sum, a total of two (2) units and six (6) bedrooms will be removed from the City of Belmont’s moderate income housing rental program.

The Replacement Project will replace 100% of the units/bedrooms removed from the portfolio, and will result in units that are as affordable as, or even more affordable than, the affordability levels of the Units to Be Sold for Market Rate. The Replacement Project involves construction of one hundred and twenty-five (125) units of which 124 will be affordable to Extremely Low Income, Very Low Income, and Low Income households for a period of fiftyfive years. The following is a table showing the number of new units/bedrooms by affordability level to be developed as part of the proposed Replacement Project:

Unit Mix/Affordability
AMI % 1 Bedroom 2 Bedroom 3 Bedroom
Total
Units
30% 5 13 29 47
50% 14 1 0 15
60% 29 22 3 54
70% 4 4 0 8
Mgr Unit 1 1
Total Units 52 41 32 125
678
1750\40\4090795.1
As demonstrated by the numbers above, the Replacement Project will fully replace all demolished units and will add additional units and additional bedrooms to the affordable housing inventory.

VII. TIMELINE
The City executed a Regulatory Agreement and Loan Agreement with Roem Development Corporation, the developer of the Replacement Project, on March 28, 2025. The Replacement Project is currently under construction and is expected to be completed in late 2026. The anticipated timeline for the Replacement Project gives the City a reasonable means to ensure that the requisite number of replacement dwelling units will be available to meet the City's obligations to replacement units removed within the requisite four-year period. 679

FY 2025-26 Midyear Budget Review – Staff Report

STAFF REPORT
Meeting Date: February 24, 2026
Agency: City of Belmont
Staff Contact: Grace Castaneda, Finance Director, [email protected] Joanne Yung, Budget Manager, [email protected]
Agenda Title: Report on Mid-Year Financial Results as of December 31, 2025 Agenda Action: Resolution
Recommendation
Adopt resolutions to amend the City of Belmont and Belmont Fire Protection District (BFPD) fiscal year (FY) 2025-26 budget, and adopt a resolution updating the Belmont Investment Policy. Provide feedback on key findings and priorities to guide the development of the FY 2026-27 budget.

Strategic Focus Area
Fiscal and Organizational Sustainability
Background
The City prepares a mid-year review annually, analyzing the budget at the six-month mark. The review covers the period from July through December and serves to:
 Assess current financial results relative to budget expectations,  Identify potential corrective actions, and
 Provide the City Council with information to guide budget planning for the remainder of the fiscal year.

This year’s review provides an overview of Belmont’s fiscal status, including revenues, expenditures, development activity, and community engagement.

Summary
 The budget continues to reflect the ongoing takeaway of key revenue source resulting from actions taken by the State of California. The State’s failure to distribute funds to San Mateo County and its cities, poses an ongoing financial risk to essential local services and long-term fiscal stability.

As a result, Belmont will experience reduced fiscal flexibility in supporting core services and capital priorities, contributing to ongoing budgetary pressures that parallel those faced by many local governments throughout the region.
 Property tax in-lieu of Vehicle License Fee (VLF) continues to be underfunded by the State, with recent actions further reducing this critical revenue source. For the first time, the State reimbursed only two-thirds of the VLF shortfall from FY 2023-24 in the current FY 2025-26, compared to full reimbursement in prior years. In January 2026, the Governor released the proposed FY 2026-27 state budget, which again does not provide any funding for the outstanding VLF backfill obligations for FY 2024-25 and FY 2025-26.
680

FY 2025-26 Midyear Budget Review – Staff Report
 The Local 1% Sales Tax revenues are slightly higher than the adopted FY 2025-26 budget as the auto-transportation industry continues to show strong performance. The revised estimates are consistent with long-term projections over the next few years.  The development pipeline has experienced a slowdown, with several large-scale market rate projects opting to delay or reassess their timelines in response to current market conditions, including elevated interest rates despite recent reductions, rising construction costs, and elevated commercial vacancies rates.
 Updates to the Citywide Master Fee Schedule, as well as the Development Impact and In-Lieu Fees Studies, are currently underway. These initiatives are important to maintain appropriate cost recovery for city services and to ensure fees remain aligned with the actual cost of providing those services.
 The City must continue taking action to ensure long-term financial sustainability and maintain local control over revenue sources, mitigating ongoing uncertainty and potential pressure on Belmont’s ability to fund essential services, including public safety, parks and recreation, public works, and other core community programs.

Community Engagement
In the most recent Your Voice, Your Belmont community survey (2025), approximately 500 residents participated and identified the following top City service priorities:
 Maintaining storm drains and reducing flooding, debris and pollution in City streets  Fixing potholes and repairing streets and sidewalks
 Maintaining 911 emergency response times
 Keeping public areas healthy, safe, and clean
 Supporting multi-generational activities for youths, teens, adults, and seniors, including sports, arts and crafts, fitness, and health and wellness programs  Providing residents with an evacuation center in the event of wildfire, earthquakes, or other natural disasters.

The City is committed to aligning its budget and policies with the community’s priorities and looks forward to ongoing engagement with residents and businesses throughout the City’s budget process. By working together, we will ensure that our investments and spending reflects the needs and priorities identified by the community.

Analysis
The City conducts an annual mid-year review to analyze the budget at its six-month point. This review examines financial results from July through December and identifies corrective actions needed if actual results differ from expectations. This year’s mid-year review provides key insights into the City’s financial position and includes the components outlined below.

Mid-Year Budget
The mid-year budget presentation summarizes year-to-date financial results, major revenue trends, fund balance forecasts, and an overview of financial challenges facing the City. 681

FY 2025-26 Midyear Budget Review – Staff Report
Summary Overview
 The General Fund ended December 31, 2025, with an unaudited balance of $36.4 million, excluding estimated fund transfers of $5.7 million, which will be recorded at fiscal year-end. By comparison, the General Fund balance was $33.6 million on December 31, 2024, excluding fund transfers. The increase primarily reflects the unbudgeted two-thirds VLF shortfall reimbursement received, as well as the City containing expenditures below budget.  General Fund revenues were $15.2 million through December, the six-month midpoint, representing 46% of the total current fiscal year budget. The decrease compared to budget at the midpoint mark is primarily due to the timing of business license tax receipts. All businesses' licensing periods (i.e., the “tax period”) have transitioned to January 1 to December 31 and the majority of the revenue collection are expected around January during the license renewal process.  General Fund expenditures at mid-year totaled $13.2 million, representing 38% of the total fiscal year budget. This amount does not yet include estimated fund transfers of $5.7 million (approximately 16% of total budget) which are anticipated at the fiscal year-end. These figures reflect the City’s continued fiscal prudence in managing expenditures. At the same time, it is important to recognize that the costs of delivering essential City services and maintaining the quality of life residents rely on continues to rise.

Major Revenue Source Trends
 Property Tax revenue is higher than budget estimates. The City’s property tax revenue is estimated to be $1.2 million higher than budget, primarily due to the two-thirds reimbursement received for the VLF shortfall resulting from FY 2023-24. Belmont Fire Protection District’s property tax revenues are overall in line with budget.
 Property Tax in-lieu of VLF (VLF) continues to be underfunded by the State, creating ongoing uncertainty for Belmont’s finances. While the City received $1.15 million this fiscal year for the FY 2023‑24 shortfall, the total amount due was $1.7 million, meaning the reimbursement covered only two-thirds of the shortfall. This partial payment does not fully restore Belmont’s VLF funding. In addition, the State budget continues to exclude reimbursement for VLF shortfalls from FY 2024‑25 and the current FY 2025‑26. The FY 2024‑25 shortfall is approximately $1.8 million, over 40% of Belmont’s Local 1% Sales Tax revenue, a key General Fund source, and the FY 2025‑26 shortfall is projected at $2.1 million. This increasing uncertainty regarding VLF reimbursements heightens the risk of long-term State takeaways, potentially affecting essential services such as public safety, streets, parks and storm facility maintenance.  Hotel Room Tax revenue is trending lower than budget target. By the midway mark of this fiscal year, Hotel Room Tax (i.e., Transient Occupancy Tax, or TOT) revenue collected was lower than prior year. This major revenue source is the most sensitive to economic conditions, and Belmont hotels mainly serve business travelers. Two out of the ten hotels in Belmont are currently closed (with one potentially slated for development to a larger hotel), thus impacting total room stock and revenue collection in the meantime. Year-end estimates are projected to be $240K lower than budget. Collections in this revenue source will be monitored closely, and projections will be adjusted accordingly.
682

Page 4 of 8 ends

FY 2025-26 Midyear Budget Review – Staff Report
 Total Sales Tax revenue is slightly up. The Local 1% Sales Tax revenue is estimated to be approximately $150K higher than budget, primarily due to the auto-transportation industry showing stronger performance due to higher prices and surged spending prior to the September 2025 expiration of federal electric vehicle tax credits. Measures I/A/W and Public Safety sales tax are overall in line with budget. With the Federal Reserve considering additional rate changes in early 2026, and as tariff and trade talks ease, inflationary pressures will continue to shape spending behavior. Long-term projections indicate muted economic growth over the next several years.  The new Business License Tax structure is in its first years of implementation. After 49 years under the previous tax structure, Belmont voters approved a revised business license tax program effective January 2025. The new structure moves away from a flat tax based primarily on employee counts, and instead establishes rates based on gross receipts from business activity within the City, creating a more equitable approach. It also simplifies the rate categories from 43 to 4, and all businesses' licensing periods have transitioned to a calendar year (January 1 to December 31).

During these first years of implementation, staff is reviewing tax calculations, particularly with larger businesses, to ensure accuracy. As a result, revenue collection may span multiple tax periods, causing some fluctuations. For now, budget estimates for this revenue source in the current fiscal year remain unchanged, but the fiscal impact will be reassessed as more data becomes available the FY 2026-27 budget development process.

Development Update
 The development pipeline continues to experience a slowdown due to elevated interest rates (despite recent cuts), rising construction costs, and high commercial vacancies, affecting both commercial and residential sectors.
 On the commercial side, two large-scale projects,1301 Shoreway and 425 Harbor, remain in the entitlement phase. 1301 Shoreway is expected to be entitled in February 2026, and 425 Harbor in 2027 following the Harbor Industrial Area annexation. Construction for these projects is unlikely to begin for at least five years, depending on market conditions.  In the residential sector, the 608 Harbor project (entitled 2023) is not moving forward with construction, and 580 Masonic Avenue is the only other recently entitled market-rate housing project. The remainder of the pipeline consists entirely of 100% affordable housing projects.

Three of these—800 Belmont Avenue, Hill Street & El Camino, and 678 Ralston—are either under construction or expected to start later this fiscal year. These projects help the City meet its housing obligations but are exempt from property tax, providing no revenue to offset the costs of essential City services.
 Overall, the combination of exempt developments and rising service and infrastructure costs places continued pressure on the City’s General Fund.
 Despite the slow-down in large-scale projects, smaller-scale residential development—home remodels, new homes, and accessory dwelling units remains steady, showing that Belmont residents continue to invest in their properties.

FY 2025-26 Midyear Budget Review – Staff Report
Financial Reports and Budget Adjustments
The mid-year review analyzes actual results compared to the prior fiscal year while addressing any significant past or anticipated variances this fiscal year. To assist in this analysis, staff generates a detailed Statement of Revenues and Expenditures Budget Variance Report (Attachment B). This report compares budget amounts vs. actual results by major revenue source and expenditure division.  Routine adjustments to budget revenues include variances associated with the timing of the receipt of certain General Fund revenues and variances associated with the timing of the receipt for fees related to development projects.
 Routine adjustments to budget expenditures reflect operational and staffing needs for departments and timing of capital improvement project expenditures.

The following are notable FY 2025-26 budget adjustments:
 As one of the Member Agencies of Silicon Valley Clean Water (“SVCW”), the City is responsible for 9.45% of SVCW’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) funding requirement. Of the $98 million in SVCW planned CIP expenditures over the next three years, $65.6 million is covered by existing debt and reserves. The remaining $32.4 million are funded by Member Agencies, with Belmont’s proportional share (9.45%) at about $3.1 million. The budget adjustment will authorize utilization of the City’s 2019 sewer revenue bond proceeds to pay for this contribution, as these proceeds are an eligible source for the overall sewer system, including collection and treatment.  Adjustments to existing CIP project budgets in the Capital Improvement Project Fund to update funding sources as summarized under Capital Improvement Program in Exhibit A – COB Proposed Budget Amendments by Fund. Some notable adjustments include:

Annual Investment Policy Update
California Government Code Section 53646(a)(2) requires local governments to annually review and consider changes to their Investment Policy at a public meeting. Belmont has maintained such a policy for nearly forty years, as it provides a critical framework for ensuring that public funds are invested in accordance with State law.

Although City Council’s approval is not required by statute, the City, consistent with best practice, annually reviews and accepts its Investment Policy to provide transparency and disclosure. Council’s acceptance affirms the fiduciary responsibility of the Finance Director/City Treasurer to safeguard public assets and manage public funds prudently and responsibly.

Historically, the City has invested solely in the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), an investment pool managed by the State Treasurer’s Office. However, the current economic environment with higher 685

Page 7 of 8 ends

FY 2025-26 Midyear Budget Review – Staff Report
interest rates has resulted in the City of Belmont approaching LAIF’s maximum allowable investment limit of $75 million. Continued reliance on LAIF under current conditions highlights the need to diversify into other eligible, safe, and liquid investment vehicles. To address this issue and enhance the City’s flexibility in managing public funds, this annual update to the Investment Policy specifies the scope of allowable investments consistent with California Government Code Sections 16429.1, 53600-53609 and 53630-53686 which govern the allowable investments into which a local government agency can enter.

Staff did a review and comparison of investment portfolios across neighboring jurisdictions, which has been included as Attachment D. The survey shows investment tools utilized by each jurisdiction, and reflects that a majority of jurisdictions diversify in multiple tools, not just in LAIF. Most of these jurisdictions have portions of their portfolios externally managed through investment firms, while others also invest into other pools such as Local Government Investment Pools (LGIPs), a joint powers authority investment pool that offers very similar characteristics to LAIF but with more flexibility because they have no minimum or maximum investment requirements. All of these options are allowable investments consistent with California Government Code Sections 16429.1, 53600-53609 and 53630-53686. With Belmont approaching LAIF’s maximum allowable investment limit, staff recommends that the City diversify first into LGIPs that can be internally managed with self-service daily deposits and/or withdrawals similar to LAIF.

Most of the proposed amendments are cleanup language to the existing policy, with a couple of new sections relating to diversification and allowable investments such as ones described above that keep consistent with California Government Code sections 16429.1 and 53600 et seq. The following is a summary of all proposed amendments. A redline copy of the Investment Policy reflecting all changes is included as Attachment E.

Investment Policy Section Summary of Proposed Amendment(s) Prudent Investor Standard Update the prudent investor standard definition consistent with Cal. Gov.

Code § 53600.3.

Investment Objectives Clarify the existing investment objections to continue to prioritize safety, liquidity, and return on investment.

Delegation of Authority Add reference to the Belmont Municipal Code duties of the Finance Director (Chapter 2, Article III), and to include authorized and registered external investment managers and advisors.

Conflict of Interest Specify the ethics and conflict of interest verbiage to include City officials, staff members, as well as external consultants, and to require economic interest reporting consistent with State law.

Diversification
(NEW)
Add a Diversification section to avoid risk associated with single instrument investment, while ensuring the investment portfolio remains flexible allowing the City to respond to the current economy, securities markets, and anticipated cash flow needs, while requiring authorized investments in accordance with California Government Code Sections 16429.1, 53600-53609 and 53630-53686.
686

Page 8 of 8 ends

FY 2025-26 Midyear Budget Review – Staff Report
Authorized Investments
(NEW)
Add an Authorized Investments section which states that the City shall make investments and deposits in accordance with Cal. Gov. Code § 16429.1, 53600 et seq. and in compliance with the Local Agency Investment Guidelines published by the State Treasurer’s Office.

Proposed Actions
Staff recommends that Council adopt the following resolutions:

1. Resolution amending the City of Belmont FY 2025-26 budget as proposed in Exhibit A.

2. Resolution amending the Belmont Fire Protection District FY 2025-26 budget as proposed in Exhibit A.

3. Resolution amending the Belmont Investment Policy as proposed in Exhibit A.

These mid-year resolutions are considered annually as part of the budget management process.

Next Steps
Feedback from the City Council on the mid-year financial report and presentation will help guide the development of the FY 2026-27 budget. The City will continue to engage residents to understand their service needs and priorities, ensuring that these insights are incorporated into the annual budget planning process.

WHEREAS, Property Tax In-lieu of Vehicle License Fee (“VLF”) continues to be underfunded by the State, and for the first time took unprecedented action and in FY 2025-26 only reimbursed two-thirds of the VLF shortfall resulting from FY 2023-24, while also continuing to not budget for payment of VLF shortfalls from FY 2024-25 through the current FY 2025-26 and makes this major revenue source increasingly uncertain; and, WHEREAS, several key General Fund revenues are trending relatively flat, but the development pipeline has a notable slowdown with many large-scale market rate developments deciding to not move forward given the current market conditions which feature elevated interest rates despite recent cuts, escalating construction costs, and high commercial vacancies; and, WHEREAS, the City Council finds that it is necessary to amend the FY 2025-26 revenue budget, and amend the estimated fund balances, as identified in Exhibit A; and, WHEREAS, the City has determined that additional funding is required for certain operational expenditures identified in Exhibit A; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that it is necessary to augment the FY 2025-26 budget for those expenditures; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council wishes to amend the FY 2025-26 Capital Improvement Plan to adjust several existing capital project budgets.

NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Belmont resolves as follows:

SECTION 1. The FY 2025-26 budget is hereby amended as reflected in Exhibit A to the resolution.

INVESTMENT POLICY

1.0 Policy:

It is the policy of the City of Belmont to invest public funds in a manner which will maximize security, liquidity, return on investment, followed by meeting the daily cash flow demands of the entity and then provide the highest investment return consistent with, and conforming to, all state and local statutes governing the investment of public funds.

2.0 Scope:

This investment policy applies to all investments as defined by the State of California Government Code accounted for in the City of Belmont’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR).

3.0 Prudence:

The City’s investment philosophy is based on the Prudent Investor Standard as set forth in California Government Code 53600.3:
“…all governing bodies of local agencies or persons authorized to make investment decisions on behalf of those local agencies investing public funds pursuant to this chapter are trustees and therefore fiduciaries subject to the prudent investor standard. When investing, reinvesting, purchasing, acquiring, exchanging, selling, or managing public funds, a trustee shall act with care, skill, prudence, and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing, including, but not limited to, the general economic conditions and the anticipated needs of the agency, that a prudent person acting in a like capacity and familiarity with those matters would use in the conduct of funds of a like character and with like aims, to safeguard the principal and maintain the liquidity needs of the agency. Within the limitations of this section and considering individual investments as part of an overall strategy, investments may be acquired as authorized by law.”

4.0 Objectives:

The City’s investment of funds will be guided by the following primary objectives, listed in priority order, while also meeting the ongoing objective of assuring compliance with Federal, State, and local laws governing investment of public funds:

4.1 Safety: Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the investment program. Investments of the City of Belmont shall be Exhibit A
699
2 undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. To attain this objective, the City will seek to minimize credit risk by diversification such that potential losses on individual securities do not exceed the income generated from the remainder of the portfolio.

4.2 Liquidity: The City of Belmont’s investment portfolio will maintain sufficient cash and short-term investment instruments which shall enable the City of Belmont to meet all operating requirements as reasonably anticipated.

4.3 Return on Investments: The City of Belmont’s investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of attaining a market rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, commensurate with the City of Belmont’s investment risk constraints and the cash flow characteristics of the portfolio.

5.0 Delegation of Authority:

No person may engage in an investment transaction except as provided under the terms of this policy and the procedures established by the Finance Director/City Treasurer. The Finance Director/City Treasurer shall be responsible for all investment transactions undertaken and shall establish a system of internal controls to regulate the activities of authorized personnel, pursuant to Belmont Municipal Code Chapter 2, Article III, Section 2-53.
.

6.0 Ethics and Conflicts of Interest:

All officials, staff members, and consultants involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution of the investment program, or which could impair their ability to make impartial investment decisions. All investment personnel shall comply with reporting requirements of applicable State laws including annual filing of a Statement of Economic Interest. All officials, staff members and consultants shall disclose to the Belmont City Clerk any personal financial positions and material financial interests in financial institutions that could be related to the City’s cash and investment portfolio.

7.0 Diversification:

The City shall diversify its investments within the parameters of this policy to avoid incurring unreasonable risks inherent in over-investing in specific instruments, individual financial institutions or maturities. Nevertheless, the asset allocation in 700
3 the investment portfolio should remain flexible depending upon the outlook for the economy, the securities markets, and the City’s anticipated cash flow needs.

Funds invested with the State, County, or other Joint Powers Authority administered investment pools, in accordance with California Government Code Sections 16429.1, 53600-53609 and 53630-53686, meet this requirement for diversification.

8.0 Authorized Investments
All investments and deposits of the City shall be made in accordance with California Government Code Sections 16429.1 and 53600 et seq., and in compliance with the Local Agency Investment Guidelines published by the State Treasurer’s Office. Any amendments to these code sections will be assumed to be part of this policy immediately upon being enacted.

9.0 Reporting:

The Finance Director/City Treasurer shall provide to the City Council financial reports at least once per quarter which provide a clear picture of the status of the current investment portfolio.

Schedules in the financial report should include the following:
- A listing of individual securities held at the end of the reporting period by authorized investment category.
- Final maturity of all investments listed.
- Coupon, discount, or earnings rate.
- Par value and market value.

10.0 Investment Policy Adoption:

The City of Belmont’s investment policy shall be accepted by the City Council.

The policy shall be reviewed annually, and any modifications made thereto must be approved by the City Council.

Commission Appointments 2026 - Staff Report

STAFF REPORT
Meeting Date: February 24, 2026
Agency: City of Belmont
Staff Contact: Jozi Plut, City Clerk, [email protected], 650-595-7414 Agenda Title: Appointment to City Commissions
Agenda Action: Motion
Recommendation
(1) Motion to appoint at least one resident to the Planning Commission; (2) Motion to appoint at least two residents as voting members and two non-voting youth members to the Parks, Recreation and Culture Commission.

Strategic Focus Area
Fiscal and Organizational Sustainability
Background
The City of Belmont has two Commissions, and a Committee. During the Months of November 2025 to January 2026, the City of Belmont held an open recruitment for applicants to fill open positions on the Planning Commission, and Parks, Recreation and Culture Commission. Each Commission is charged with advising the City Council on policy matters and completing assignments as directed by the City Council.

Some bodies like the Planning Commission have a regulatory role.

The Planning Commission serves as both a regulatory and quasi-judicial body. The Commission is responsible for making land use decisions or forwarding recommendations to the City Council in accordance with State law, City’s General Plan, and other applicable regulations, including the Zoning Ordinance, the Belmont Village Specific Plan, and adopted area plans.

At this time, up to five commission seats are potentially available. This includes up to three seats on the Planning Commission, should the Council elect to maintain a seven-member Commission, as well as up to two voting member seats on the Parks, Recreation, and Culture Commission. In addition, there are two non-voting youth member positions available on the Parks, Recreation, and Culture Commission.

Depending on its preferred structure, the Council may choose to fill five or up to seven total seats across the two commissions.

The Planning Commission currently consists of six members. Two commissioners have reached the end of their respective terms, and one additional seat was vacated due to a resignation in March 2025. As a result, the City Council has the opportunity to consider the overall composition of the Commission. The Council may determine whether to seat a five- or seven-member Planning Commission. If the Council elects to establish a seven-member Commission, three appointments would be required and may be made 716

Page 2 of 3 ends

Commission Appointments 2026 - Staff Report – Commission Appointments 2026 for the standard three-year term. Alternatively, if the Council chooses to maintain a five-member Commission, only one appointment would be necessary at this time.

The Parks, Recreation, and Culture Commission currently consists of seven voting members. Two commissioners have reached the end of their respective terms. If the Council chooses not to make an appointment from among the current applicants, the commission could function as a five-member commission. To maintain a seven-member voting Commission, the City Council would need to make two appointments. In addition, the Commission includes two non-voting youth member positions, which also require appointment to ensure full participation and representation.

Analysis
The City Council conducted panel interviews of all applicants seeking appointment to the Planning Commission and the Parks, Recreation, and Culture Commission. The interviews provided Councilmembers with the opportunity to evaluate each applicant’s qualifications, experience, and interest in serving, as well as their understanding of the respective commission’s roles and responsibilities.

The applicants for each body are as follows:

In doing so, the Council may consider factors such as professional experience, community involvement, diversity of perspectives, and alignment with the duties of each commission. The Council’s action will formally appoint members to the respective commissions for the applicable term lengths and establish the composition of each body moving forward. 717
