AGRARIAN
Agrarian style is unadorned and
utilitarian architecture stemming
from agricultural traditions beginning
during the late 1700’s and continuing
throughout the Manifest Destiny
period of western expansion. Agrarian
architecture predating the 20th century
made use of local materials and took
advantage of aspects of the land.

Agrarian buildings from the 18th and
19th centuries were actively used
as part of family farming and ranch
life. Farmsteads of the period exhibit
patterns in the relationship of their
main structures to the surrounding
outbuildings, fields, and farm lanes.

The architecture of these farms
resulted from a blending of building
traditions brought to the area by early
ethnic groups, including a high quality
of workmanship, and an assemblage
of a wide range of agricultural trends
adapted to the landscape. many
agricultural buildings were constructed
based on agricultural production
suitable to the local economy and
built from locally-abundant materials,
including rocks, dirt, sand, water, and
fast growing plants, primarily grasses
and some trees.

Agrarian style buildings are often simple
in geometry and arranged in clusters.

Buildings lack ornamentation and
details are simple and utilitarian.

The intent of the Agrarian style in
Buellton is to reflect the farm and ranch
influences that originally occupied the
lands within and surrounding what is
now the incorporated City of Buellton.

While the agrarian design style is meant
to be utilitarian, it is also important
that quality materials are used where
appropriate and feasible.

Building Form
Building forms are simple, reflecting
barn elements such as pitched roofs,
clerestories, dormers, cupolas, and
wood or metal siding.
• One and two story volumes
should be used in combination.
• Lower-gabled wing extensions
are recommended.
• Covered front porches should be
large, deep, and oriented toward
the street. The porches should
transition to the second story of

CHARACTER
Development within the City should
incorporate elements from one of the
following architectural styles:
 Agrarian,
 Mission Revival,
 Ranch, or
 Contemporary Ranch.

Users of the document should reference
the Architectural Character chapter for
all proposed development. Depending
on the project zoning, the applicable
chapter - Single-Family, Multi-Family,
Commercial and Commercial Mixed
Use, or Industrial - should then be
consulted for use-specifi c guidelines.

Although this document is not
geographically based, a portion of the
City that is zoned industrial has started
to develop with the Contemporary
Ranch architectural style. The Zoning
and Architectural Character Map on
the following page indicates the City
limits and extent of the area where the
Design Guidelines apply, as well as the
industrial area that should primarily be
developed with a Contemporary Ranch
architectural character.

the building and should:
- extend across the entire front
of the building or
- wrap around one or more
sides of the building.
• Porch roofs should be supported
by substantial but simple square
posts and brackets.
• Porch railings, balustrades,
molding, and trim should be
decorative.
• Second story balconies can be
used to add articulation.
• Masonry and stucco chimney
elements are recommended.
- Twin chimney stacks are
suggested.
- Decorative spark arrestors
are nice additions.

Roof Forms and Materials
• Roof forms should have a low
slung roofline and be either a:
- gable roof,
- hipped roof, or
- shed roof at a minimum of
5:12 slope.
• Single pitch, basic roof structures
are appropriate to the agrarian
style; however, varied roof
pitches are also acceptable.
• Multiple roof planes should be
used to provide visual interest.
- Single story roof forms could
be used in conjunction with
two story gable roof volumes.
- Gable and shed roof forms
with moderate roof overhangs
could be used in combination.
- A one story skirt roof
transitioning to a second story
building volume is an option.
• Building projections should be
provided with shed roofs to
create interest.
• Varied roof forms that accent a
building, such as tower elements,
dormers, cupolas, gabled roofs,
clerestories, and extended
eaves with rafters, can be used
to add interest to large agrarian
structures.

• Roof materials should be either:
- corrugated, standing seam
metal
- concrete shake shingles,
- treated wood shingles,
- textured composition asphalt
shingles,
- flat concrete tile, or
- weathering steel.
• Roof materials should not be:
- brightly colored, glazed
roofing tiles or
- slate or clay tile.
• Parapet walls should be avoided.
• Deep overhangs, heavy wood
beams, exposed timber rafter
tails, and timber trusses are
suggested.
• Decorative vented cupolas are
suggested for added roof detail.
• Decorative vents are suggested
to add ornamentation to gable
ends.
• Weather vanes are indications of
farmland structures and provide
vertical landmarks.

Building and Accent Materials
Building materials and finishes should
be selected to reinforce the overall
design intent and to be consistent with
the desired architectural character
of the building. Street facades and
exposed sides of buildings should
be the most detailed and of highest
quality materials feasible while backs of
buildings should use similar materials
but may be less expensive and more
utilitarian.
• Material and finishes should be
selected for ease of maintenance
and durability.
• Buildings should be wood
construction with painted or raw
wood finishes.
• For visual interest, a mix of the
following exterior wall materials
is strongly encouraged:
- fire resistant wood siding
(horizontal siding is
recommended),
- horizontal lap siding,

- barn siding,
- wood clapboard,
- metal siding
- If used, board and batten
siding must be high quality
and must be integrated into
a design composed of other
wall materials and/or stone
type wainscot. No more than
50% of a building’s facade is
to be board and batten,
- stucco (surfaces should be a
smooth, hand troweled finish
to prevent the collection of
dirt and paint deterioration),
- brick (colored concrete may
be used to simulate brick), or
- stone masonry.
• Building walls should not be
made of the following:
- reflective or dark glass,
- synthetic materials made of
poor quality and resemblance
to brick or masonry,
- corrugated fiberglass,
- coarsely finished or
unfinished plywood,
- unfinished concrete block and
split-face block,
- shingles,
- T-111 siding, or
- slump stone block (unless
wall is over six feet tall).
• Where feasible, articulated
facades are encouraged.
• Stone masonry (simulated
square rubble) is recommended
as a building base to simulate a
masonry foundation.
• Siding should wrap around the
outside corners of buildings to a
fence line at a minimum, but the
use of siding on the entire facade
is preferred.
• Heavy timber construction
should be used in trellises, roof
overhangs, balconies, and other
architectural elements.
• Railings and balustrades should
be plain and symmetrical with
little or no ornamentation.
• Trim and accent materials should
be either:
- brick,
- wood, or

- fieldstone.
• Wooden trellis elements can be
used throughout the project to
add shadows and human scale.
• Stone veneer that mimics field
stone should be incorporated in
select accent areas.
• Awnings are encouraged but
should respect the style and
character of the structure to
which the awning is attached.
• Awning details incorporating
iron or heavy timber structural
elements are recommended.
• The highest point of an awning
or its support structure should
not be higher than the midpoint
of the space between the
second story window sills and
the top of the first floor window,
awning, canopy, or transom. The
purpose of this requirement is to
leave a space between the top
of the awning and the windows,
trim, and other architectural
elements.
• Aluminum, galvanized, or
corrugated tin accents, gutters,
downspouts, and scuppers are
suggested.

Windows and Doors
• Consistency between windows
and door frames should be
maintained throughout the
structure to unify the building.
• The use of either very large
repeated or very small multipaned windows with mullions are recommended in window
and door designs to minimize
expanses of glazing, which
detract from the desired agrarian
character.
• Windows should be vertically
oriented with divided lights
and predominately small and
rectilinear.
• Rustic wood shutters are
recommended for color and
accent.
• Dormer windows should be used
and should extend up above the
line of the porch roof.
- Gabled dormers should

ILLUSTRATIONS

OF POTENTIAL

IMPROVEMENTS
In the prior edition of the Community
Design Guidelines (2005), this chapter
presented six illustrations showcasing
potential improvements to existing
structures within the City of Buellton.

Each page presented a “before” image
that illustrated the current state of the
structure and an “after” image that
showed what the site could look like
upon implementation of the Design
Guidelines. However, several of
these properties are located within
the Avenue of Flags Specific Plan
(adopted 2017), which requires that
the Art Deco design style be utilized
for new construction and exterior
remodeling of existing buildings. Thus,
the “after” sketches cannot be utilized
as a style guide for these properties.

The “after” sketches representing
the Agrarian and Mission Revival
styles have been moved and are
utilized as design examples in the
respective chapters on Agrarian and
Mission Revival. The remainder of
this chapter, “Illustrations of Potential
Improvements” has been deleted.

ART DECO
Art Deco is an architectural style
composed of strong geometry, accented
by intricate detail and tied together
with bold or a highly contrasting color
palette. It grew in popularity in the
1920s and 1930s, but made its first
appearance in France at the turn of the
twentieth century. Examples of Art Deco
style buildings can be found throughout
the world, e.g. Mumbai, India; Napier,
New Zealand; and Asmara, Eritrea
– a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

In particular, the Art Deco style was
popular in Europe and America between
the First and Second World Wars, and
quickly came to represent the spirit and
glamour of the modern age.

The classic Art Deco style, with
variations such as Art Moderne, had
an important impact on architecture in
the United States, where it flourished
well into the 1940s. A unique style
of American Art Deco emerged, and
epitomized the flapper era, jazz,
cinema, and the great era of travel.

Famous building examples include the
Empire State Building and Chrysler
Building in New York, along with the
Art Deco Architectural District in Miami,
Florida.

Many U.S. cities, large and small have
examples of Art Deco buildings. Popular
design motifs used in Art Deco could
be easily adapted for mass-production,
which began in the 1930s. As a result,
Art Deco styled building components
became more readily available and
could easily incorporate local styles
and traditions into the overall Art Deco
design theme.

Los Angeles and the surrounding areas
have rich architectural histories, with
many Art Deco buildings still standing
(e.g. LA City Hall, Oviatt Building,
Bullocks Wilshire, Argyle Hotel) as
well as some of the best examples of
art deco theaters (e.g. Graumans’s
Chinese, Wiltern Theater). Regional
interpretations of art deco often
reflected stylized local elements and
design motifs; an example is Union
Station in LA, which is a mixture of Art
Deco, Streamline Moderne and Spanish
Mission Revival.

In smaller cities, scaled-down versions
of the Art Deco style became popular
for government and public buildings,
office buildings, department stores,

hotels, movie theaters, and apartment
buildings. Examples of Art Deco
architecture can be seen throughout
California, in small towns and
agricultural communities.

Given its convenient location at the
intersection of two prominent regional
highways (US 101 and SR 246),
Buellton was historically a primary
stopping location for travelers and
became known as “Service Town USA”.

Some of the old hotels, diners and gas
stations still remain today, and historic
photographs depict local commercial
buildings that reflect elements of Art
Deco and Streamline design. As
defined in the Avenue of Flags Specific
Plan, the Art Deco design style is
intended to showcase Buellton’s historic
“Service Town” era and car culture
elements, and to promote a distinct
identity and differentiating brand for
the downtown area; please refer to the
Specific Plan for additional information
Classic Art Deco
The classic Art deco style is defined
by geometric shapes, chevrons and
sunburst motifs, zigzag (or stepping)
architecture, and stylized figures and
ornamentation. Bold colors traditionally
define this style, though as the original
buildings have been renovated, the
colors have become more subdued.

Strong symmetry and vertical forms
along with natural elements such as
jade, silver and ivory add to this unique
style. The primary façade of Art Deco
buildings often feature a series of
setbacks that create a stepped outline.

Low-relief decorative panels can be
found at entrances, around windows,
along roof edges or as string courses.

Art Moderne / Streamline
Art Moderne, also referred to as
Streamline, is a type of Art Deco
architecture that emerged in the late
1930s and is more modern looking than
classic Art Deco. It is easily identified
through its clean styles and smooth
lines, which convey aerodynamic
qualities, and included the use of
glass bricks, iron railing, speed stripes,
alternative windows, and decorative
elements which often commemorated
the automobile and other forms of
transport. Classic building examples
include the Pan Pacific Auditorium in
Los Angeles and the Avalon Ballroom in
Catalina.

Diner and Roadside Architecture
Influenced by the emerging car culture
in the 1940s and 1950s, evolving
interpretations of Art Moderne became
a popular style for diners, gas stations
and other roadside architecture,
including the 50s Diner motif, which
incorporates a streamlined design such
as rounded corners, linear forms, and
other elements. In accordance with
the Avenue of Flags Specific Plan, the
Diner style is intended for strategic
locations only.

Building Form
Art Deco building forms are simple,
symmetrical, and contain a strong
vertical element. Buildings pulling
influence from Art Moderne may instead
exhibit strong horizontal features. • Multi-storied volumes. • Stepped or set back facades. • Towers and vertical projections. • Recessed metal casement windows.
• Intricate coping with 3
dimensional relief.
• Horizontal banding in contrasting
color or with sculpted/geometric
design.
• Canopies with rounded edges at
windows and doors.
• Columns.

Roof Forms and Materials • Parapet with low slope roof. • Contrasting coping. • Decorative cornice. • Spire or tower to accentuate a corner or entrance.

Building and Accent Materials
Building materials and finishes should
be selected to reinforce the overall
design intent and to be consistent with
the desired architectural character
of the building. Street facades and
exposed sides of buildings should
be the most detailed, while backs of
buildings should use similar materials Example of vertical elements.

CITY OF BUELLTON
City Council Agenda Staff Report
City Manager Review: SW
Council Agenda Item No.: 10
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Shannel Zamora, Finance Director
Meeting Date: February 24, 2022
Subject: Review of Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2021
______________________________________________________________________________

BACKGROUND
Staff is pleased to present the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the fiscal year July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021 (Attachment 1). Although submitted to the Mayor and City Council for consideration, the ACFR is also intended to provide relevant financial information to the residents of Buellton, taxpayers, creditors, investors and other interested parties.

The ACFR was prepared to ensure a more comprehensive financial presentation of the City’s fiscal position which provides a broader scope than the basic audited financial statements. The City has won its eighth consecutive Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting Award for the ACFR from the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA). We will continue to prepare and submit the ACFR to the GFOA in anticipation of receiving the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting each year.

Attachment 2 is a glossary of terms within the ACFR. A detailed general ledger report showing revenue and expenditures (budget vs. actual) for Governmental and Proprietary Funds is also attached for reference purposes (Attachment 3 and 4 respectively). Page 26 of the ACFR presents descriptions of the major funds presented in the Fund Financial Statements.

The City contracted with Moss, Levy and Hartzheim, LLP, a firm of licensed certified public accountants, licensed to practice in the State of California, to perform the annual independent audit. The auditors expressed an opinion that the City’s financial statements for fiscal year 2020-2021 are fairly stated in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. This is the most favorable conclusion and is commonly known as an “unmodified” or “clean” opinion. The independent auditor’s report is included in the Financial Section of this report. As part of the audit, Moss, Levy & Hartzheim also reviewed and performed tests of the City’s internal accounting control procedures to determine if there are any material weaknesses or instances of nonPage 195 of 362 FY 2020-21 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report Page 2 February 24, 2022 compliance. Adam Guise from Moss, Levy and Hartzheim will be in attendance at the meeting to answer questions.

As shown on Page 4 of the ACFR, it is organized into three sections:
 The Introductory Section is intended to familiarize the reader with the general organizational structure of the City, the nature and scope of City services and specifics of the City’s legal operating environment. It includes a transmittal letter that provides this background information and acknowledges the efforts and awards bestowed upon the City through a concerted effort of Finance and department management staff.  The Financial Section includes Management’s Discussion & Analysis, the Basic Financial Statements, which include the government-wide financial statements that present an overview of the City’s entire financial operations from a long-term perspective and the fund financial statements along with the notes to the basic financial statements, that present financial information for each of the City’s major funds, non-major governmental funds, as well as enterprise funds (Pages 1-60). This section also contains the independent auditor’s report on the Basic Financial Statements.
 The Statistical Section presents up to ten years of unaudited statistical data on the City’s financial trends, revenue capacity, debt capacity, demographic and economic financial statements and note disclosures in order to gain a context of whether the City’s financial health is improving or deteriorating over time.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact to the City as a result of the 2020-21 ACFR.

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council review and file the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

City of Buellton
January 21, 2022
To the Honorable Mayor, Members of the City Council and Citizens of the City of Buellton:

We are pleased to present the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (“ACFR”) of the City of Buellton (“City”) for the fiscal year July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021. Although submitted to the Mayor and City Council (“Council”) for consideration, the ACFR is also intended to provide relevant financial information to the residents of Buellton, taxpayers, creditors, investors and other interested parties.

The Letter of Transmittal provides a non-technical summary of City finances, services, achievements and economic prospects. We ask that readers who wish for a more detailed discussion of the City’s financial results refer to Management’s Discussion & Analysis (“MD&A”).

The City’s MD&A can be found immediately following the report by the independent auditor.

State law requires that every general purpose local government publish, within twelve months of the close of each fiscal year, a complete set of audited financial statements. This report is published to fulfill that requirement for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

The City Administration is responsible for the accuracy of the information contained in this report, the adequacy of its disclosures and the fairness of its presentation. We believe this ACFR to be complete and reliable in all material respects. To provide a reasonable basis for making this representation, we have established a comprehensive system of internal controls designed to protect City assets from loss, to identify and record transactions accurately, and to compile the information necessary to produce financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Because the cost of control should not exceed the benefit derived, the objective is to provide reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that the financial statements are free of any material misstatements.

The City contracted with Moss, Levy and Hartzheim, LLP, a firm of certified public accountants licensed to practice in the State of California, to perform the annual independent audit. The independent audit involved examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements; assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management; and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

The auditors expressed an opinion that the City’s financial statements for fiscal year 2020-2021 are fairly stated in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

This is the most favorable conclusion and is commonly known as an “unmodified” or “clean” opinion. The independent auditor’s report is included in the Financial Section of this report. iii

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
City Council of the City of Buellton
Buellton, California
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Buellton, as of and for the fiscal year ended dune 30, 2021, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.

Management's Responsibility for• the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles genera! accepted in the United States of America; this includes 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.

Auditors' Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors' judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements 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 entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficie~~t a ► ~d app~-op~~iate to provide a basis fur our audit opinions.

Opinions
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Buellton, as of June 30, 2021, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the fiscal year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Emphasis of Matter
As discussed in Note 14 to the financial statements, in January 2020, the World Health Organization has declared COVID-19 to constitute a "Public Health Emergency of International Concern." Given the uncertainty of the situation, the duration of any financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Change in Accountíng Principles
As discussed in Note 1 to the basic financial statements effective July 1, 2020, the City of Buellton adopted Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 84, Fiduciary Activities. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter. 2400 Professional Parkway, Suite 205 Santa Maria, CA 93455Te[805.925.2579 Fax 805.925.2147 mlhcpas.com BEVERLY HILLS • CULVER CITY •SANTA MARIA

Page 217 of 362 ends

Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion and analysis on pages 3 through 21, the budgetary information on pages 61 through 62, the schedule of proportionate share of net pension liability on page 63, the schedule of pension contributions on page 64, the schedule of changes in OPEB liability and related ratios on page 65, and the schedule of OPEB contributions on page 66, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquires of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries about the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.

Other information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City of Buellton’s basic financial statements. The introductory section, statistical section, major capital project fund schedule, and combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and schedules are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.

The major capital project fund schedule and combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and schedules, nonmajor funds budgetary comparison schedules, and the fiduciary funds statement of changes in assets and liabilities are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.

The introductory section and the statistical section have not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on them.

Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated January 27, 2022, on our consideration of the City of Buellton’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is 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 internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
3 The management’s discussion and analysis (MD&A) section provides a narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City of Buellton (City) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. It should be read in conjunction with the accompanying transmittal letter and basic financial statements.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Key financial highlights for FY 2020-21, are as follows:
 As of the close of the fiscal year, the City’s total net position increased by $1,683,104 or 4.0%, from the previous fiscal year. The increase is primarily due to the increase in capital assets and deferred outflow of resources in both the government-type activities and business-type activities. A summary of transactions reflecting Net Position is found on page 7 of this report.  On June 30, 2021, the City’s assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources by $43,545,945 (net position). Of this amount, $12,867,632 (unrestricted net position) may be used to meet the government’s ongoing obligations to its citizens and creditors.

The remaining amount includes $28,731,275 for net investment in capital assets and $1,947,038 for restricted net position.
 The City of Buellton’s governmental funds reported a combined ending fund balance of $11,512,157: an increase of $1,655,472 or 16.8%, in comparison with the prior fiscal year fund balance. $8,114,612 (70.5%) of the fund balance is available for spending at the government’s discretion (unassigned fund balance).
 The City’s General Fund unrestricted fund balance ended the fiscal year at $8,217,772. Management’s suggested minimum reserve goal is to maintain 25% of budgeted operating expenditures, or a “nonspendable” fund balance figure of $1,905,666. The unassigned fund balance is in substantial excess of the suggested minimum reserve: $6,312,106 is “spendable”.  The primary government’s program revenues decreased by $491,280 or 8.0%, in comparison with the prior fiscal year. The decrease was driven by a $147,834 increase in charges for services and a decrease of $639,114 in operating grants and contributions. The total primary government’s expenses increased by $623,359, nearly 5.4%.
 The City’s net pension liability increased from $2,255,555 to $2,411,265, which is approximately a 6.9% increase from the prior year. As of the most current Annual Valuation Report (June 30, 2021), the City’s defined benefit plan’s funding ratios were 93.7% for the PEPRA Plan and 73.8% for the Classic Plan.  The City reported its OPEB liability per GASB 75. The net OPEB liability for fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 increased from $2,332,487 to $2,649,289 which is a 13.6% increase from the prior year, and the percentage of covered payroll was 192.62%.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
4 OVERVIEW OF THE ANNUAL COMPREHENSIVE FINANCIAL REPORT This Annual Comprehensive Financial Report is in three major parts:
1) Introductory section, which includes general information; 2) Financial section, which includes the Management’s Discussion and Analysis (current section), the Basic Financial Statements, which include the Government-wide and the Fund Financial Statements along with the notes to these financial statements, and Combining and Individual Fund Financial Statements and Schedules.
3) Statistical section, which includes detailed information as a context for understanding what the information in the financial statements, and footnotes says about the City's overall financial health.

The Basic Financial Statements
The Basic Financial Statements are comprised of the Government-wide Financial Statements and the Fund Financial Statements; these two sets of financial statements provide two different views of the City’s financial activities and financial position.

The Government-wide Financial Statements
The Government-wide Financial Statements provide a broad overview of the City’s activities as a whole and comprise the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities. The Statement of Net Position provides information about the financial position of the City as a whole, including all its capital assets and long-term liabilities on the full accrual basis, similar to that used by corporations. The Statement of Activities provides information about all the City’s revenues and all its expenses, also on the full accrual basis, with emphasis on measuring net revenues or expenses of each of the City’s programs. The Statement of Activities explains in detail the change in Net Position for the year.

All of the City’s activities are grouped into Governmental Activities and Business-type activities, as explained below. All the amounts in the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities are separated into Governmental Activities and Business-type Activities in order to provide a summary of these two activities of the City as a whole.
♦ Governmental activities – All of the City’s basic services are considered to be governmental activities, including general government, community development, culture and leisure, public safety, and public works. These services are supported by general City revenues such as taxes, state grants and by specific program revenues such as developer fees. ♦ Business-type activities – All of the City’s enterprise activities are reported here, including Water and Wastewater. Unlike governmental services, these services are supported by charges paid by users based on the amount of the service they use.

5 Fund Financial Statements
A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of the City can be divided into two categories: governmental funds and proprietary funds.

Governmental funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities in the Government-wide Financial Statements. However, unlike the Government-wide Financial Statements, Governmental Fund Financial Statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a government’s near-term financing requirements.

Because the focus of the Governmental Fund Financial Statements is narrower than that of the Governmentwide Financial Statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the Government-wide Financial Statement. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the government’s near-term financial decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities. The Governmental Fund Financial Statements provide detailed information about each of the City’s most significant funds, called major funds. The concept of major funds, and the determination of which are major funds, was established by GASB Statement No. 34 and replaces the concept of combining like funds and presenting them as one total. Instead, each major fund is presented individually, with all non-major funds summarized and presented only in a single column. Subordinate schedules present the detail of these nonmajor funds. Major funds present the major activities of the City for the year and may change from year to year as a result of changes in the pattern of the City’s activities.

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, the City’s major funds are as follows:

GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS:
 General Fund
 Transportation Planning Special Revenue Fund
 Capital Improvement Fund
PROPRIETARY FUNDS:
 Water Enterprise Fund
 Wastewater Enterprise Fund
Proprietary funds. The City maintains Enterprise-type proprietary funds. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the Government-wide Financial Statements. The City uses enterprise funds to account for Water and Wastewater operations. Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the Government-wide Financial Statements, only in more detail.

6 Notes to the Basic Financial Statements
The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements. The notes to the basic financial statements can be found on pages 36-60 of this report.

Combining and Individual Fund Financial Statements and Schedules The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with non-major governmental funds are presented immediately following the notes to the financial statements. Combining and individual fund statements can be found on pages 72-75 of this report.

GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
As noted earlier, Net Position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government’s financial position. In the case of the City, assets and deferred outflow of resources exceeded liabilities and deferred inflows of resources by $43,545,945 for the period ending June 30, 2021, a 4.0 percent increase from the prior year.

The largest portion (66.0 percent) of the City’s net position reflects its investment of $28.7 million in capital assets (land, building and improvements, equipment and infrastructure, net of accumulated depreciation). The City uses these capital assets to provide services to its citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending.

About $1.9 million (4.5 percent) of the City’s net position represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they may be expended. These restrictions include Housing, Streets and Roads, Transportation Planning, and Capital Expansion.

About $12.9 million of the net position (29.5 percent) is unrestricted and may be used to meet the government’s ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors. Of this amount, $6.0 million is held by the business-type activities and $6.9 million is held by the governmental activities.

The statement of activities shows how the City’s net position changed during fiscal year 2020-21 compared to the prior fiscal year. The City’s net position increased overall by about $1.7 million during the fiscal year, which shows the City’s financial health is better than the previous year.

The tables on the following pages present a summary of net changes of the City’s net position as of June 30, 2021, and June 30, 2020.

9 Revenues
The City’s total revenue for governmental and business-type activities was $13,817,072 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. Total revenue from government-type activities were $9,890,924. Approximately 92.8% or $9,182,580 of the City’s key governmental revenue is generated from four major sources: Sales, property, transient occupancy taxes, and grants and contributions.

The following discusses variances in key revenues from the prior fiscal year:

1. Sales and Use Taxes – Sales tax revenue totaled $2,934,332 for an increase of $397,551, or 15.67% gain from the previous fiscal year. The Autos and Transportation Industry group continues to thrive, posting a 21 percent increase from the prior fiscal year. The Business and Industry group experienced a 29 percent increase due to a boost in sales from garden/agricultural supplies and wineries. The City’s sales tax pool allocation increased 26 percent. The continuing growth is attributed to receipts due to the Wayfair decision that required out of state companies to collect sales tax coupled with demand for online purchases, a change in buying habits during the pandemic.

2. Secured and Unsecured Property Taxes – Property tax revenues recorded in the governmental fund totaled $1,670,306 for an increase of $70,348 or 4.4 percent. Rising property values, commercial and residential growth attributed to the increase in property taxes. The City’s ongoing share of property tax is expected to increase at a steady rate as the assessed property values continue to rise and as new development continues to progress.

3. Transient Occupancy Tax – Governmental Activities Operating – This revenue source is a major component and top revenue source of the City’s General Fund. Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) totaled $3,020,078, an increase of $471,236 or an 18.49% improvement. The Hotel Industry experienced decreased occupancy rates beginning in March 2020 when the “Stay at Home” order was put in place. This resulted in drastic revenue loss that continued until the end of June 2021 when the “Stay at Home” order was lifted. The occupancy rates in April through June 2020 were 15%, 21%, and 48% respectively compared to 69%, 62%, and 79% for the same period the prior year.

The occupany rates for the same period in FY 2020-21 were 73%, 69%, and 81%, exceeding prepandemic rates. Fortunately, TOT revenue recovered much quicker than anticipated. TOT occupancy rates exceeded and TOT revenue was similar to pre-pandemic revenue of $3.1 million.

4. Grants and Contributions – Governmental and Business-Type Activities Operating – Grants continue to be a consistent source of revenue for public works uses under Business and Governmental-type activities. Operating grants decreased by $639,114 or 29.1 percent. This was mainly due to the timing of street, road, and community enhancement operating grants for maintenance and operations renewed in the current year. Furthermore, the City received $44,216 in CARES Act Funding to cover eligible expenditures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Expenses
Governmental and business-type activity expenses of the City totaled $12,133,968 for the year.

Governmental activity expenses totaled $8,721,240, or about 71.9% of total expenses. Business-type activities incurred $3,412,728 in expenses during the fiscal year, or about 28.1% of total expenses.

12 Business-type activities
Business-type activities increased the City’s Net Position to $11,021,097. The City has two business-type activities: Water and Wastewater. Water accounts for 68.7 percent of total business-type activity revenue, and Wastewater accounts for 31.3 percent.

Total business-type revenues for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2021 were $3,905,375, an increase of $111,459 from the prior year. Charges for services remained steady with an increase of $96,606 (2.5%) from the prior year. The increase for charges for current services for the Water Fund was $84,303 (3.3%), and the increase for the Wastewater Fund was $12,303 (1.0%). The revenue increases in the Water and Wastewater Funds was a result of more water consumption due to water usage customers staying at home to reduce the spread of COVID-19.

Other operating revenue increased by $14,853 (469.9%). The increase was attributed to revenue from an insurance refund for a City vehicle that was deemed a total loss. Receipts of Water and Wastewater Connection Fees in previous years came from new housing development. There was no new development during FY 2020-21. Business-type interest income decreased by $36,888 (63.9%) from the prior year. The decrease was due to the low interest earning in the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF). The LAIF interest rate on June 30, 2021 was 0.33 percent compared to 1.36 percent the prior year. There was a minimal transfer into the Water and Wastewater Funds from the General Fund. The $760 transfer was to purchase masks and sanitizing products using funds from the CARES Act.

Expenses of the business-type activities for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2021, totaled $3,361,146, a decrease of $206,191 (-5.8%) from the prior year. Of the total decrease in expenses from the prior year, Water Fund expenses decreased $92,452 (-4.0%), and Wastewater Fund expenses decreased $113,739 (-9.1%).

Personnel services decreased $265,498 (30.4%) from the previous fiscal year. The decrease was mainly due to GASB 68 and GASB 75 adjustments for CalPERS retirement employer contributions and Other PostEmployment Benefits (OPEB) adjustments. Actual employee salary and benefit amounts remained consistent with prior year amounts.

Operations and maintenance expenses increased $52,106 (2.3%) from the previous year. The majority of the increase is due to repairs of a water meter line break. Depreciation expense continues to be consistent with prior years. The $42,118 interest expense recognized is for the interest expense on the ENGIE U.S.

Inc. capital lease for solar and energy improvements.

15 FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE GOVERNMENT’S FUNDS
The City of Buellton uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. The fund financial statements focus on individual parts of the City government, reporting the City’s operations in more detail than the government-wide financial statements.

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

As of June 30, 2021, the City of Buellton's governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $11,512,157, an increase of $1,655,472 (16.8%) in comparison with the prior fiscal year. The majority of the increase is in the General Fund with revenue from taxes increasing $958,741 (13.6%) from the prior year. Revenue from TOT and sales tax recovered at a faster pace than anticipated. In addition, the General Fund received $829,589 in capital lease proceeds for the solar and energy project.

Approximately 70.5 percent of this total amount ($8,114,612) constitutes unassigned fund balance. The remainder of the fund balance is “non-spendable,” or restricted to indicate that it is not available for new spending because it has already been committed to fund amounts prepaid for the following fiscal year ($111,901) and restricted by other parties for a specific purpose ($3,285,644).

The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the City of Buellton. The total fund balance in the General Fund is $9,668,279 of which $8,217,772 is shown as “unassigned.” As a measure of liquidity, both unassigned fund balance and total fund balances can be compared to total fund expenditures. Unassigned fund balance represents 119.3% of total General Fund expenditures of $6,886,799. The City Council policy goal is to have reserves of at least 50 percent of budgeted operating expenditures, which means the City’s unrestricted fund balance is above policy goal.

The fund balance of the City of Buellton's General Fund increased by $1,181,022 during the current fiscal year. Expenditures decreased by $2,147,503 (23.8%) compared to the prior year. Most of the decrease is attributed to the one-time expenditure the previous year in the amount of $2,001,008 for the purchase of 202 Dairyland Road (Willemsen Property). Other one-time expenditures attributed to the decrease, such as contributions to the Buellton Senior Center’s expanded Meals and Wheels Program and other COVID-19 response expenditures during the previous year.

Transfers out of the General Fund increased by $188,175 (11.1%) compared to the prior year. These transfers are for Capital Improvement Projects (CIPs) and account for $1,887,459 of General Fund expenditures. The most significant CIPs expenditures as of June 30, 2021 are:
 $1,342,130 for the Avenue of Flags Median 2 Improvements #092-215  $337,960 for the General Fund portion of the ENGIE Solar and Energy Project #092-219

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
16  $154,326 for the completion of Stage 2 of the Storm Drain Inlet and Catch Basin Retrofit Improvement Project #092-314
General Fund revenue increased by $216,051 (2.4%). The increase was mainly attributed to the following:
 $958,741 increases in revenue from taxes as a result of a strong recovery in TOT and Sales Tax revenue that was lost the previous year during the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. About 90 percent of the increase in revenue from taxes is attributed to TOT and sales tax revenue. The City lost about $565,000 in TOT revenue from March 2020 to June 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. At the end of FY 2020-21, TOT revenue was $471,236 (18.49%) higher compared to FY 2019-20. In addition, sales tax revenue was $397,551 (15.67%) higher compared to FY 2019-20.  Charges for current services increased $36,285 as a result of activities from the Buellton Recreation Center and Park Reservation Fees. After the June 15, 2021 reopening date, the Buellton Recreation Program was able to offer more programs and increase participant capacity.

In addition, more park reservations were utilized. The Buellton Recreation Program had a successful Summer Program and was able to recover from loss of revenue from the prior fiscal year. The City lost about $49,740 in revenue from charges for current services in FY 2019-20. By the end of FY 2020-21 it had recovered $36,285.
 Use of Money and Property revenue decreased by $176,390 from the previous fiscal year. The City invests the majority of idle money into LAIF. With low interest rates during the year, the City earned less than 1 percent quarterly. The LAIF interest rate on June 30, 2021 was 0.33 percent compared to 1.36 percent the prior year.
 Intergovernmental revenue decreased by $619,046. During the prior fiscal year, the City received a one-time reimbursement of $615,439 for the construction of a pedestrian crossing at Sycamore and Highway 246. Reoccurring annual intergovernmental revenue is received for the COPS Grant, Beverage Container Grant, Motor Vehicle in Lieu tax, and Motor Vehicle License Fee Compensation.

Proprietary funds
The City of Buellton's proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the governmentwide financial statements, but in more detail.

Unrestricted Net Position of the Water Fund at the end of the fiscal year amounted to $4,296,253 and those for the Wastewater Fund amounted to $1,689,512. The total change in unrestricted Net Position for both funds was $580,122 and $340,658 respectively. The overall change in net position is primarily attributable to capital lease proceeds and increased revenue from water consumption and wastewater usage.

GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS
In FY 2020-21, appropriation changes between the original and final budgets amounted to a decrease of $92,227 in the change in fund balance. The General Fund exceeded revenue projections while

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
17 expenditures were within appropriations. Historically, the City has not expended all appropriations and does not complete all budgeted capital projects, which create budget savings. Overall, revenue exceeded expenditures by $2,238,892. The actual net increase in Fund Balance of $1,181,022 includes $829,589 in proceeds from the capital lease that will be used for an energy saving and solar project. Following is a summary of General Fund Budget variances for the period ending June 30, 2021.

The City adopted an amended FY 2020-21 Budget that identifies changes to City appropriations in response to the economic conditions that have been heavily influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic forced the City to adjust down projected revenues to reflect the loss of transient occupancy tax, sales tax revenue, and revenue from the Buellton Recreation Programs. Because the State of California was still under the Stay-At-Home Order, these revenue projections were kept conservative due to economic uncertainty and were based on a steady recovery. Fortunately for the City, sales tax revenue, transient occupancy tax and revenue generated by the Buellton Recreation Program exceeded budget projections.

The City received approximately $1.30 million more revenue than conservative estimates. The City had projected $2,216,000 in sales tax revenue, accounting for potential revenue loss from the Stay-at-Home Order, a 12 percent loss in revenue compared to FY 2019-20 actuals. Instead, the City received $718,332 more than the revised sales tax revenue projection due to strong revenue streams in Auto Sales and the Budgeted Amounts Actual Variance from Revenues: Original Budget Final Budget Amounts Final Budget Taxes $ 6,731,692 $ 6,731,692 $ 7,992,216 $ 1,260,524 Licenses, Permits, Fees 9,540 9,540 13,620 4,080

SUMMARY OF GENERAL FUND BUDGET VARIANCES

Page 233 of 362 ends

City of Buellton, California
Basic Financial Statements
For the year ended June 30, 2021
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
18 City’s increased share of the pooled taxes from online retail sales. In addition, a quicker than anticipated rebound in tourism caused TOT revenue to also exceed projections. The budget projected about $2.5 million in TOT revenue but received about $3.0 million in TOT revenue for the year.

General Fund expenditures ended the fiscal year $735,865 below budget projections. Expenditure savings resulted from deferred repair and maintenance expenditures in addition to service contracts that were deferred due to COVID-19. These service contracts were pushed back into the new fiscal year. Transfers Out from the General Fund has a budget savings of about $1.5 million, resulting from capital improvement projects that were not started, nor yet completed. Historically, transfers for capital projects are carried over into the next fiscal year.

CAPITAL ASSETS
The City of Buellton's investment in capital assets for its governmental and business-type activities as of June 30, 2021 amounts to $31,159,421 (net of accumulated depreciation). This investment in capital assets includes land, buildings and improvements, equipment and infrastructure. The total increase in the City's investment in capital assets for the current fiscal year was $1,920,581. Of the total increase, governmental activities showed an increase of $765,270, resulting from an increase in net depreciable capital assets. An increase of $1,155,311 in Business-type activities capital assets is the net result of ongoing projects offset by depreciation.

More detail of the capital assets and current activity can be found in the notes to the financial statements on pages 39 & 40 for significant accounting policies and Note 4 on pages 47 & 48 for other capital asset information.

DEBT ADMINISTRATION
As of June 30, 2021, the City had about $9.4 million of outstanding long-term obligations related to governmental activities and business-type activities. The City has no general obligation or revenue bonds.

Buellton enjoys a relatively healthy local economy; however, it does not currently have a bond rating because it has zero bonded debt on its balance sheet. When the City decides to go to Wall Street to sell bonds for future infrastructure improvements for Water or Wastewater systems, the City will go before Moody’s Investor Service or Fitch’s Rating Service for a credit rating.

Additional information on long-term debt can be found in Note 6 – Changes in Long-Term Liabilities in the notes to the basic financial statements.

ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
The City completed FY 2020-21 with better than expected operating financial results in some categories after the budget was revised to reflect changes to City operations and improvements in response to the current COVID-19 pandemic. The City finished the year exceeding budgeted revenues in the categories of Taxes and Intergovernmental revenue. The General Fund cash reserves were $7,606,500 and revenue exceeded expenditures (including other financing sources and uses) in 2020-21 by $1,181,022.

The General Fund ended the 2020-21 fiscal year with a fund balance of $9,668,279. Operating expenditures approved in 2020-21 budget amount to $7,622,664. The result is a coverage ratio of about 126%. Because it is difficult to fully anticipate dramatic changes in the national and local economies, the Council has set an unassigned fund balance goal of 50% of the general fund’s operating expenditures.

When the City prepared the adopted FY 2021-22 Budget, it considered how the COVID-19 pandemic will impact future revenues and expenditures. It is difficult to project the economic impact as the status of the pandemic is changing constantly. Economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic is a key component to the City’s operations for the upcoming year.

After the FY 2021-22 Budget was prepared, the City amended the budget to recognize $1.2 million of new Federal American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding that is to be used for COVID-19 recovery. The City anticipates the use of those for replacement revenue for revenue lost due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Broadband Infrastructure and for investment in Water and Sewer Infrastructure.

The City is already experiencing overall growth in TOT and sales tax. Sales tax revenue is expected to continue through the next year and depends on the demand for travel and experiences shifting from spending on taxable goods, higher fuel prices, and consumer’s disposable income. In addition, possible increases in future interest rates may slow down financing for automobiles, homes and consumer loans.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
20 Potential impacts on property tax revenue remains limited. Future growth in property tax values will likely be slowed, but the City may continue to expect an increase in property tax revenues as the assessed values of homes remain high. It is uncertain if future development project proposals will emerge in the shortterm as businesses recover from COVID-19. Future development has the potential for property tax growth.

Quarterly reports will be presented to support the financial management of City resources, providing information to the City Council and public. As part of the mid-year budget review, the City prepares a report on financial position, considers economic factors and highlights trends based on the City’s budget versus what actually occurred during the period. A discussion of other economic factors provides a means of comparing the local economy against the larger economic events that may affect the City. This provides Council with a budget review at four periods during the year, offering better control of costs and identifying financial requirements prior to the close of the fiscal year. Modifications to the original budget take place each quarter as needed.

NEXT YEAR’S BUDGETED APPROPRIATIONS
The adopted budget for all City funds for the new fiscal year of 2021-22 is $17,515,447. The current adopted budget for fiscal year 2020-21 totals $17,312,421. Both are summarized below with CIP expenditures shown in the Citywide CIP row of the chart below for consistent comparison:

1. General Fund – Shows an increase of $561,591. Various employee position reclassifications and cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) contribute to the increase in expenditure appropriations.

Effective July 1, 2021, all full-time employees received a 2.0 percent COLA. The financial impact of all staffing changes are reflected in the new budget. Other significant changes include:
a. A one-time appropriation of $15,000 for demographic services to determine voter districts for the next election cycle.
b. CalPERS Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL) contribution for FY 2021-22 is $184,139 compared to $104,407 the prior fiscal year.
c. 4.0 percent increase to the annual contribution to Buellton Senior Center. d. 18.0 percent increase in support to non-profit agencies such as People Helping People, Food Bank of Santa Barbara County, Santa Ynez Valley Veggie rescue, Nature Track, Zaca Center Preschool and California Organization for Public Safety, Inc.

21 e. Addition of annual lease payment to repay the lease purchase agreement for the Engie Energy project. The first lease payment is due on January 1, 2022 with a 20-year term. f. Contract services with the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Department is experiencing a

16.3 percent increase from the prior year contract amount. g. The increase in Landscape Maintenance cost is mostly attributed to the inclusion of the Willemsen Property in the City-wide landscape maintenance contract. h. The Planning Department is anticipating a 9.0 percent increase primarily due to the cost associated with the update to the Circulation and Land Use elements of the Buellton General Plan and updating the General Guidelines. These costs are rollovers from the prior year and are not expected the following fiscal year. In addition, the City will increase contract services to assist in the preparation of updating (local/regional) planning documents and implement process improvements that will facilitate the acceleration of housing production. These costs will be reimbursed by the LEAP and REAP grants.

2. Water & Wastewater Funds – Shows an increase of $546,672. The majority of the increase includes transfers out from reserve for capital improvement projects. Capital Projects that enhance capacity are funded through revenue from connection fees. The City does not anticipate connection fees in the fiscal year, thus requiring the use of reserves.

3. Citywide Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Fund – The CIP Fund expenditures relate to Capital Improvements. CIP fund shows a decrease of $911,827. The reduction is due to the completion of the Median 2 Parking Lot Improvement which was about $1.3 Million. Historically, the City does not complete all budgeted projects and are carried over to the next fiscal year.

4. Special Revenue Funds – Shows no change in expenditures. Special revenue funds have restrictions against the use of the revenue received and expenditures are consistent.

The emphasis of fund financial statements is on major individual funds, each of which is displayed in a separate column. Ali remaininggovernmentalfunds are aggregated and reported as nonmajor funds.

Proprietary fund financial statements include: a Statement of Net Position; a Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position; and a Statement of Cash Flows for all proprietary funds.

Proprietary funds are accounted for using the "economic resources" measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, all assets and liabilities (whether current or non-current) are included on the Statement of Net Position. The Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position presents increases (revenues) and decreases (expenses) in total net position. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the period in which they are earned, while expenses are recognized in the period in which liability is incurred.

NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) B. Basis of Presentation (Continued
Operating revenues in the proprietary funds are those revenues that are generated from the primary operation of the fund. AI! other revenues are reported as non-operating revenues. Operating expenses are those expenses that are essential to the primary operations of the fund. All other expenses are reported as non-operating expenses.

C. Major Funds
GASB Statement No. 3~ defines major funds and requires that the City's ~najor~ funds are identified and presented separately in the fund financial statements. A!I other funds, called nonmajor funds, are combined and reported in a single column in the Fund Statements as Other Governmental Funds, regardless of their fund-type.

Major funds are defined as funds that have either assets, liabilities, revenues, orexpenditures/expenses equal to ten percent of their fund-type total. The Genera! Fund is always a major fund. The City may also voluntarily select other funds it believes should be presented as major funds.

The City reported the following major governmental funds in the accompanying financial statements:

General Fund —Accounts for all general revenues of the City not specifically levied or collected for other City funds and the related expenditures. The General Fund accounts for all financial resources of a governmental unit which are not accounted for in other funds.

Transportation Planning Special Revenue Fund —Accounts for revenue used in the planning for transportation projects restricted by other governments. Funds are a State grant derived from a 1/4-cent share of retail sales tax collected statewide.

Capital {rnp~~ovefnent Prvjeet Fund —Accounts for capital improvement projects by centralizing project expenditures. Projects are tracked and managed for the purp~~es of pian~iir~g, scheduling, and budgeting capital improvements.

The City reported the following major proprietary funds:

Water Fund —This fund was established as a separate fund to account for the operation of the City's water utility. It is aself-supporting activity that provides services on auser-charge basis to residents and businesses located in the City.

Wastewater Fund —This fund was established as a separate fund to account for the operation of the City's wastewater utility. It is aself-supporting activity that provides services on auser-charge basis to residents and businesses located in the City.

Basis of Accounting
The government-wide and proprietary funds financial statements are reported using the economicresources measurement focus and the full accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred, regardless of when the related cash flows take place.

Governmental funds are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under this method, revenues are recognized when measurable and available.

The City considers all revenues reported in the governmental funds to be available if the revenues are collected within sixty days after fiscal year end. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for principal and interest on general long-term debt, claims and judgments, and compensated absences, which are recognized as expenditures to the extent that they have matured.

Capital asset acquisitions are reported as expenditures in governmental funds. Proceeds of long-term debt and acquisitions under capital leases are reported as other financing sources.

Non-exchange transactions, in which the City gives or receives value without directly receiving or giving equal value in exchange, include property taxes, grants, entitlements, and donations. On an accrual basis, revenue from property taxes is recognized in the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied. Revenue from grants, entitlements, and donations are recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibilíty requirements have been satisfied.

Other revenues susceptible to accrual include other taxes, intergovernmental revenues, interest, and charges for services.

Grant revenues are recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements are met. Underthe terms of grant agreements, the City may fund certain programs ~:~ith a combination of cost-reimbursQment grants, categorical block grants, a~~d ge~~eral revenues. Thus, both restricted and unrestricted net assets may be available to finance program expenditures/expenses. The City's policy is to first apply restricted grant resources to such programs, followed by general revenues, if necessary.

Property Taxes
California Constitution Article XIII A limits the combined property tax rate to one percent of a property's assessed valuation. Additional taxes may be imposed with voters' approval. Assessed value is calculated at one hundred percent of a property's fair value, as defined by Article XIII A, and may be increased by no more than two percent per year, unless a change in ownership or new construction occurs. The State legislature has determined the method of distributing the one percent tax levy among the various taxing jurisdictions.

Property tax revenues are recognized in the fiscal year for which taxes have been levied and collected within sixty days of fiscal year end. Property taxes are billed and collected as follows:

Secured Unsecured
January 1 January 1
July 1 July 1
November 1 (50%) August 1
February 1 (50%)
December 10 (Nov.) August 31

FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2021
NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) F. Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenditures or expenses as appropriate. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

G. Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Investments
The City pools its available cash for investment purposes. The City's cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash on hand, demand deposits, and short-term investments with original maturity of three ~moriths or less from the date of acquisition. Cash and cash equivalents are combined with investments and displayed as Cash and Investments. For purposes of the statement of cash flows of the proprietary fund types, cash and cash equivalents include all investments, as the City operates an internal cash management pool which maintains the general characteristics of a demand deposit account.

Disclosure requirements for Deposits and Investment Risks were made in the following areas:
• Interest Rate Risk
• Credit Risk
-Overall
-Custodial Credit Risk
-Concentrations of Credit Risk
In addition, other disclosures are specified including use of certain methods to present deposits and investments, highly sensitive investments, credit quality at year-end, and other disclosures.

Highly liquid market investments with maturities of one year or less at time of purchase are stated at amortized cost. All other investments are stated at fair value. Market value is used as fair value for those sec! ~rities for wh':ch market quotations are readily available.

The City participates in the Local Agency Investme~it Fu~~ú ~LAIF~, an investment pool managed by the State of California. LAIF has invested a portion of the pooled funds in Structured Notes and Asset- Backed Securities.

LAIF's investments are subject to credit risk with the full faith and credit of the State of California collateralizingchese investments. In addition, these Structured Notes and Asset-Backed Securities are subject to market risk as a result of changes in interest rates.

H. Inventories
The City accounts for inventories using the first-in, first-out method. Inventories in the Water Fund consist primarily of meters and are carried at cost.

Capital Assets
Capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available.

Donated fixed assets, donated works of art and similar items, and capital assets received in a service concession arrangement are valued at their acquisition value. City policy is to capitalize ail capital assets with costs exceeding a minimum threshold of $5,000 and with useful lives exceeding one year. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Structures and Improvements SO years
Machinery and Equipment 3-15 years
Infrastructure 15-100 years

NOTES TO THE BASK FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF StGNIFfCANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Capital Assets (Continued
The City defines infrastructure as the basic physical assets that allow the City to function. The assets include streets, wastewater, park lands, and buildings. Each major infrastructure system can be divided into subsystems. For example, the street system can be subdivided into pavement, curb and gutters, sidewalks, medians, streetlights, landscaping, and land.

These subsystems were not delineated in the basic financial statements. The appropriate operating departrnent maintains information regarding the subsystems.

Interest accrued during capital assets construction, if any, is capitalized for the business-type and proprietary funds as part of the asset cost. For all infrastructure systems, the City elected to use the Basic Approach defined by GASB Statement No. 34, which requires all infrastructures be reported at historical cost and be depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

Long-term Liabilities
Government-Wide Financial Statements
Long-term debt and other financial obligations are reported as liabilities in the appropriate activities. Bond premiums and discounts are amortized over the life of the bonds using the straight-line method. Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable premium or discount. Issuance costs are reported as deferred outflows if they constitute bond insurance.

Fund Financial Statements
The Governmental Fund Financial Statements do not present long-term liabilities. Consequently, long-term liabilities are shown as a reconciling item in the Reconciliation of the Governmental Funds Balance Sheet to the Government-Wide Stateme~.t of Nei PoSitiúri. Governmental funds recognize bond premiums and discounts, as well as bond issuance costs, during the current period. The face amount of debt issued is reported as other financial sources. Premiums received on debt issuance are reported as other financing J. Long-term Liabilities (Continued)
sources while discounts on debt issuance are reported as other financing uses. Issuance costs, whether or not withheld from the actual debt proceeds received, are reported as debt service expenditures. Proprietary Fund Financial Statements use the same principles as those used in the Government-Wide Financial Statements.

K. Compensated Absences
Government-Wide Financial Statements
For governmental and business-type activities, compensated absences are recorded as incurred and the related expenses and líabilities are reported in the appropriate activity. 40

NOTE 1 —SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Continued) K. Compensated Absences Continued)
Fund Financial Statements
Incompliance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 16, the City has established a liability for accrued vacation in relevant funds. For governmental type funds, the current liability appears in the respective funds. All vacation paid is accrued when incurred in the government-wide and proprietary funds financial statements. This liability is set up for the current employees at the current rates of pay. Each fiscal year, an adjustment to the liability is made based on pay rate changes and adjustments for the current portion. The Genera! Fund is primarily responsible for the repayment of the gover~nrrientai portion of compensated absences. Accumulated employee sick leave benefits are not recognized as liabilities ofthe City.

The City's policy is to record sick leave as an operating expense in the period taken since such benefits do not vest nor is payment probable; however, unused sick leave is added to the creditable service period for calculation of retirement benefits when the employee retires.

L. Unearned Revenue
Unearned revenue arises when assets are received before revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied.

Grants and entitlements received before eligibility requirements are met are recorded as unearned revenue.

M. Deferred Outflows and Inflows of Resources
Pursuant to GASB Statement No. 63, "Financial Reporting of Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position," and GASB Statement No. 65, "Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities," the City recognizes deferred outflows and inflows of resources.

In addition to assets, the Statement of Net Position wilt sometimes report a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. A deferred outflow of resources is defined às a consumption of net position by the government that is applicable to a future reporting period. Thé City has two items that qualify for reporting in this category; refer to Note 9 and Note 10 for detailed listing of the deferred outflows of resources the Cíty has reported.

In addition to liabilities, the Statement of Net Position and the Governmental Funds —Balance Sheet will sometimes report a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. A deferred inflow of resources is defined as an acquisition of net position by the City that is applicable to a future reporting period. The City has two items that qualify for reporting in this category; refer to Notes 3, 9, and 10 for detailed listing of the deferred inflows of resources the City has reported.

N. Pensions
For purposes of measuring the net pension liability and deferred outflows/inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the City of Buellton's California Public Ernpioyee's Retirement System (CaIPERS) plans (Plans) and additions to/deductions from the Plans' fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by CaIPERS. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value. 41

NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES {Continued) O. Other Postemployment Benefits ~OPEB)
For purposes of measuring the net OPEB liability and deferred outflows/inflows of resources related to OPEB, and OPEB expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the City's plan (OPEB Plan) and additions to/deductions from the Pfan's fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis. For this purpose, benefit payments are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms.

Investments are reported at fair value.

P. Fund Balances
Fund balances of the governmental funds are classified as follows:

Norispendable Fund Balance —represents amounts that cannot be spent because they are either not in spendable form (such as inventory or prepaid insurance) or are legally required to remain intact (such as notes receivable or principal of a permanent fund).

Restricted Fund Balance —represents amounts that are constrained by external parties, constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.

Committed Fund Balance —represents amounts that can only be used for a specific purpose because of a formal action by the City's governing board. Committed amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the governing board removes those constraints by taking the same type of formal action. Committed fund balance amounts may be used for other purposes with appropriate due process by the governing board.

Commitments are typically done through adoption and amendment of the budget. Committed fund balance amounts differ from restricted balances in that the constraints on their use do not come from outside parties, constitutional provisions, or enabling legislation.

Assigned Fund Balance —represents amounts that the City intends to use for a specific purpose, but that do not meet the criteria to be classified as restricted or committed. Intent may be stipulated by the governing board or by an official or body to which the governing board delegates the authority. Specific amounts that are not restri cted or committed in a special revenue, capital projects, debt service, o~~ permar~er~t fund are assigned for purposes in accordance with the nature of their fund type or the fund's primary purpose.

Assignments within the general fund convey that the intended use of those amounts is for a specific purpose that is narrower than the general purpose of the City.

Unassigned Fund Balance —represents amounts which are unconstrained in that they may be spent for any purpose. Only the general fund reports a positive unassigned fund balance. Other governmental funds might report a negative balance in this classification because of overspending for specific purposes for which amounts had been restricted, committed or assigned.

When an expenditure is incurred for a purpose for which both restricted and unrestricted fund balance is available, the City considers restricted funds to have been spent first. When an expenditure is incurred for which committed, assigned, or unassigned fund balances are available, the City considers amounts to have been spent first out of committed funds, then assigned funds, and finally unassigned funds.

Q. Net Position
GASB Statement No. 63 requires that the difference between assets added to the deferred outflows of resources, and liabilities added to the deferred inflows of resources, be reported as net position. Netposition is classified as either net investment in capital assets, restricted, or unrestricted. 42

NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2021
NOTE 1--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued] Q. Net Position (Continued)
Net position that is net investment in capital assets, consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation, and reduced by the outstanding principal of related debt. Restricted net position is the portion of net position that has external constraints placed on it by creditors, grantors, contributors, laws, or regulations of other governments, or through constitutional provisions or enabling legislations. Unrestricted net position consists of net position that does not meet the definition of net investment in capital assets or restricted net position.

R. I nterfund Balances/Internal Balances
Advances to and advances from other funds represent interfund loans in the fund financial statements.

Advances between funds are offset by a fund liability or by deferred revenue in the applicable governmental funds to indicate that they are not expendable available financial resources. Any unpaid interest due to lack of funds in the borrowing fund increases the princípal owed and is reported in the lending fund as deferred revenue. All other outstanding balances between funds are reported as due to and due from other funds.

These are generally repaid within the following fiscal year. Any residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and business-type activities are reported in the Government-Wide Financial Statements as "ínternal balances."
S. Bud~etary Accountin~
The City Council establishes budgets for the General Fund and ail Special Revenue Funds. Budgetary control is legally maintained at the fund level for these funds. Department heads submit budget requests to the City Manager. The City Manager prepares an estimate of revenues and prepares recommendations for the next year's budget. The preliminary budget may or may not be amended by the City Council and is adopted by resolution by the City Council on or before June 30 in accordance with the municipal code. The City Council may amend the budget by motion during the fiscal year. Only the Council can authorize transfers between funds and approve inter-fund loans. The City Manager is authorized t4 transfer budgeted amounts within a fund without formal council action or approval. The City Manager is authorized to increase expenditures in relation to revenues in funds receiving assigned revenues without approval by the City Council.

Expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at the fund level, which is the legal level of control.

Supplemental appropriations, which increase appropriations, may be made during the fiscal year. There were no material supplemental appropriations made for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. Budget information is presented for the General and budgeted Special Revenue Funds in the fund financial statements. The budget information is presented on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. Appropriations, except open project appropriations, and unexpended grant appropriations, lapse at the end of each fiscal year.

Appropriations lapse at the end of the fiscal year and then are re-budgeted for the coming year. Under Article XIII B of the California Constitution (the Gann Spending Limitation Initiative), the City is restricted as to the amount of annual appropriations from the proceeds of taxes, and if proceeds of taxes exceed allowed appropriations, the excess must either be refunded to the State Controller, returned to the taxpayers through revised tax rates or revised fees schedules, or an excess in one year may be offset against a deficit in the following year. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, based on the calculations by City Management, proceeds of taxes did not exceed the appropriations limit. Budgeted appropriations for the various governmental funds become effective each July 1.

B. Disclosures Relating to Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market interest rates. One of the ways that the City manages its exposure to interest rate risk is by purchasing a combination of shorter term and longer-term investments, and by timing cash flows from maturities so that a portion of the portfolio is maturing or coming close to maturity evenly over time as necessary to provide the cash flows and liquidity needed for operations.

Information about the sensitivity of the fair values of the City's investments to market interest rate fluctuations is provided by the following table that shows the distribution of the City's investments by maturity:

Remaining Maturity (in Months)
Carrying 12 Months 13-24 25-60 More than

This is measured by the assignment of rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. Presented below is the minimum rating required by the California Government Code, and the actual rating as of fiscal year end for each investment type.

C. Concentration of Credit Risk
The investment policy of the City contains no limitations on the amount that can be invested in any one issuer beyond that stipulated by the California Government Code. There are no investments in any one issuer that represents 5% or more of the total City's investments.

D. Custodial Credit Risk
Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution, a government will not be able to recover its deposits or will not be able to recover collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. The California Government Code and the City's investment policy do not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to custodial credit risk for deposits, other than the following provision for deposits: The California Government Code requires that a financial institution secure deposits made by State or local governmental units by pledging securities in an undivided collateral pool held by a depository regulated under State law (unless so waived by the governmental unit). The fair value of the pledged securities in the collateral pool must equal at least 110% of the total amount deposited by the public agencies. California law also allows financial institutions to secure the City's deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the secured public deposits.

None of the City's deposits with financial institutions in excess of the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation's limits were held in uncollateralized accounts.

D. Custodial Credit Risk Continued)
The custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty (e.g., broker-dealer) to a transaction, a government will not be able to recover the value of its investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of another party. The California Government Code and the City's investment policy do not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to custodial credit risk for investments. With respect to investments, custodial credit risk generally applies only to direct investments in marketable securities. Custodial credit risk does not apply to a local government's indirect investment in securities through the use of mutual funds or governmental investment pools (such as LAIF).

E. investment in State Investment Pool
The City is a voluntary participant in the focal Ager~cy Investment Fund (LAIF} that is regulated by the California Government Code under the oversight of the Treasurer of the State of California. The fair value of the City's investment in this pool is reported in the accompanying basic financial statements at the amounts based upon the City's pro-rata share of the fair value provided by LAIF for the entire LAIF portfolio (in relation to the amortized cost of that portfolio). The balance available for withdrawal is based on the accounting records maintained by WAIF, which are recorded on an amortized cost basis.

NOTE 3 -- NOTE RECEIVABLE AND DEFERRED INFLOW OF RESOURCES FOR UNAVAILABLE REVENUE On June 19, 2020, the City entered into a note receivable of $150,000 with its City Manager to be used for the City Manager's purchase of a home on Beech Courtin Buellton. The loan is to be repaid in monthly payments of 4%annual interest only for 60 months at the end of which the principal of $150,000 will be due in full. The loan is secured by a deed of trust on the property. For the governmental funds statements, this long-term note receivable is unavailable revenue in the current period and thus is reported as a deferred inflow of resources of $150,000.

NOTE 8 —RISK MANAGEMENT
A. Description of Self-Insurance Pool Pursuant to Joint Powers Agreement The City of Buellton is a member of the CALIFORNIA JOINT POWERS INSURANCE AUTHORITY (Authority}. The Authority is composed of 123 California public entities and is organized under a joint powers agreement pursuant to California Government Code §6500 et seq. The purpose of the Authority is to arrange and administer programs for the pooling ofself-insured losses, to purchase excess insurance or reinsurance, and to arrange for group purchased insurance for property and other lines of coverage. The California JPIA began covering claims of its members in 1978. Each member government has an elected official as its representative vn ti ie BCiar d ofDireitOr'S. T i,e àoar~ú oNer aces through anine-member Executive Committee.

Each member pays an annual contribution at the beginning of the coverage period. A retrospective adjustment is then conducted annually thereafter, for coverage years 2012-13 and prior. Coverage years 2013-14 and forward are not subject to routine annual retrospective adjustment. The total funding requirement for primary self-insurance programs is based on an actuarial analysis. Costs are allocated to individual agencies based on payroll and claims history, relative to other members of the risk-sharing pool.

Primary Liability Program -Claims are pooled separately between police and general government exposures. (1}The payroll of each member is evaluated relative to the payroll of other members. A variable credibility factor is determined for each member, which establishes the weight applied to payroll and the weight applied to losses within the formula. (2} The first layer of losses includes incurred costs up to $100,000 for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool's total incurred costs within the first layer. (3}The second layer of losses includes incurred costs from $100,000 to $500,000 for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool's total incurred costs within the second layer. (4) Incurred costs from $500,000 to $50 million, are distributed based on the outcome of cost allocation within the first and second loss layers.

The overall coverage limit for each member, including all layers of coverage, is $50 million per occurrence.

Subsidence losses also have a $50 million per occurrence limit. The coverage structure is composed of a combination of pooled self-insurance, reinsurance, and excess insurance. Additional information concerning the coverage structure is available on the Authority's website: htt s:f,~(cipia.ar,~/çovera~e~risk-sl~arin~-paQls/. 51

NOTE 9 — PENSION PLAN
B. Pension Liabilities, Pension Expenses and Deferred Outflows/inflows of Resources Related to Pensions At June 30, 2021, the City reported a liability of $2,411,265 for its proportionate share of the net pension liability. The net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2020, and the total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2019 rolled forward using standard update procedures.

The City's proportion of the net pension liability was based on a projection of the City's long-term share of contributions to the pension plan relative to the projected contributions of all Pension Plan participants, actuarially determined. The City's proportion share of net pension liability for miscellaneous plans as ofJune 30, 2020, and 2019 was as follows:

MisrPllanPnus
Proportion-June 30, 2019 0.05633%
Proportion-June 30, 2020 0.05717%
Change-Increase (Decrease) 0.00084%
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, the City recognized pension expense of $476,972. Pension expense represents the change in the net pension liability during the measurement period, adjusted for actual contributions and the deferred recognition of changes in investment gain/loss, actuarial gain/loss, actuarial assumptions or method, and plan benefits.

At June 30, 2021, the City reported deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pension from the following sources:

Differences between expected and actual experience
Changes in assumptions

Discount Rate
The díscount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.15 percent. To determine whether the municipal bond rate should be used in the calculation of the discount rate for public agency plans (including PERF C), CaIPERS stress tested plans that would most likely result in a discount rate that would be different from the actuarially assumed discount rate. Based on testing the plans, the tests revealed the assets would not run out. Therefore, the current 7.15 percent discount rate is appropriate and the use of municipal bond rate calculation is not deemed necessary. The longterm expected discount rate of 7.15 percent is applied to all plans in the Public Employees Retirement Fund, including PERF C. The stress test results are presented in a detailed report called "GASB Crossover Testing Report" that can be obtained at CaIPERS' website under the GASB No. 68 section.

CaIPERS is scheduled to review all actuarial assumptions as part of its regular Asset Liability Management (ALM) review cycle that is scheduled to be completed in February 2022. Any changes to the discount rate will require Board action and proper stakeholder outreach. For these reasons, CaIPERS expects to continue using a discount rate net of administrative expenses for GASB No. 67 and No. 68 calculations through at least the 2021-22 fiscal year. CaIPERS will continue to check the materiality of the difference in calculation until such time as we have changed our methodology.

The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using abuilding-block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. 55

NOTE 9 —PENSION PLAN (Continued)
B. Pension Liabilities, Pension Expenses and Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources Related to Pensions (Continued
In determining the long-term expected rate of return, CaIPERS took into account both short-term and long-term market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund cash flows. Using historical returns of all the funds' asset classes, expected compound returns were calculated over the short-term (first 10 years) and the long-term (11-60 years) using abuilding-block approach. Using the expected nominal returns for both short-term and long-term, the present value of benefits were calculated for each fund. The expected rate of return was set by calculating the single equivalent expected return that arrived at the same present value of benefits for cash flows as the one calculated using both short-term and long-term returns. The expected rate of return was then set equivalent to the single equivalerlt rate calculated above and rounded down to the nearest one quarter of one percent.

The table below reflects the long-term expected real rate of return by asset class. The rate of return was calculated usíng the capital market assumptions applied to determine the discount rate and asset allocation. These rates of return are net of administrative expenses.

The City offers the same medical plans to its retirees as to its active employees, with the general exception that upon reaching age 65 and becoming eligible for Medicare, the retiree must join one of the Medicare Supplement coverages offered under PEMHCA. Employees become eligible to retire and receive City-paid healthcare benefits upon attainment of age 50 and 5 years of coveredPERSservice, or by attaining qualifying disability retirement status. The City's contribution on behalf of retirees is the same as for active employees -100% of PEMHCA premium for retiree and covered dependents, but not to exceed $800 per month. Benefits continue for the lifetime of the retiree with survivor benefits extended to surviving spouses. Membership of the plan consisted of nine retirees currently receiving benefits. The City pays a 0.27% of premium administrative fee on behalf of employees and retirees.

B. Employees Covered
As of the June 30, 2019 actuarial valuation, the following current and former employees were covered by the benefit terms under the City's Plan:

Active plan members 18
Inactive plan members or beneficiaries currently receiving benefit 18 Total 36
C. Contributions
The City currently finances benefits on apay-as-you-go basis.

D. Total OPEB Liability
The City's OPEB Liability was measured as of June 30, 2020 and the total OPEB liability used to calculate the OPEB Liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2019.

Actuarial assumptions. The total OPEB liability was determined using the following actuarial assumptions, applied to all periods included in the measurement, unless otherwise specified:

Salary increases 2.75%
Inflation 2.50%
Healthcare cost trend rate 6.00% in the first year trending down to 3.94% over 54 years Pre-retirement mortality rates were based on the CaIPERS tables.

Actuarial assumptions used in the Juiy 1, 2019 valuation were based on a review of plan experience, established pattern of practice an CaIPERS experience studies.

Discount rate. GASB 75 requires a discount rate that reflects the following:
a) The long-term expected rate of return on OPEB plan investments — to the extent that the OPEB plan's fiduciary net position (if any) is projected to be sufficient to make projected benefit payments and assets are expected to be invested using a strategy to achieve that return; b) A yield or index rate for 20-year, tax-exempt general obligation municipal bonds with an average rating of AA/Aa or higher — to the extent that the conditions in (a) are not met. 57

NOTE 14 —SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization ("WHO") announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of cor-onavirus originating in Wuhan, China (the "COVID-19 outbreak") and the risks to the international community as the virus spreads globally beyond ïts point of orïgin. In March 2020, the WHO classïfied the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposurC globally.

The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve as of the date of this report. As such, it is uncertain as to the full magnitude that the pandemic will have on the City's financial condition, liquidity, and future results of operations. Management is actively monitoring the global situation on its financial condition, liquidity, operations, suppliers, and workforce. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak and the global responses to curb its spread, the City is not able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on its results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity as of the date of issuance of these financial statements. ;• ~~

Changes in assumptions
In 2018, inflation was changed from 2.75 percent to 2.50 percent and individual salary increases and overall payroll growth was reduced from 3.00 percent to 2.75 percent.

In 2017, as part of the Asset Liability Management review cycle, the discount rate was changed from 7.65% to 7.15%.

In 2016, the discount rate was changed from 7.5% (net of administrative expense) to 7.65% to correct for an adjustment to exclude administrative expense.

In 2015, amounts reported as changes in assumptions resulted primarily from adjustments to expected retirement ages of general employees. *- Fiscal year 2015 was the 1st year of implementation, therefore only seven years are shown. 64

Notes: The Government Code of the State of California provides for a legal debt limit of 15% of grossed assessed secured tax valuation. However, this provision was enacted when assessed valuation was based upon 25% of market value. Effective with the 1981-82 fiscal year, each parcel is now assessed at 100% of market value (as of the most recent change in ownership for that parcel). The computations shown above reflect a conversion of the assessed value for each fiscal year from the current full valuatíon perspective to the 25% level that was in effect at the time that the legal debt margin was enacted by the State of California for local governments located within the state.

The City does not have any outstanding general obligation debt subject to the limit.
