Monthly Treasurer’s Report
For the month ending in May 31, 2022
June 23, 2022
This report presents the City’s cash activity and investment portfolio as of May 31, 2022. The report includes:
1) Cash and investments at May 31, 2022 compared to the prior month;
2) A reconciliation of cash and investments to City ledger balances; 3) All investments managed by the City on its own behalf; 4) Beginning of year fund balance, revenues, expenditures and ending fund balance for each fund at May 31, 2022
The following schedule is a summary of the City’s cash and investments based on recorded value as of May 31, 2022 compared with the prior month.
April 30, 2022 May 31, 2022 $ Change
Cash - Pooled $ 9,883,737.66 $ 10,695,989.34 $ 812,251.68 Restricted Cash $ 446,760.72 $ 446,784.30 $ 23.58
Investments held by the City 10,281,818.88 10,283,804.78 $ 1,985.90 TOTAL CASH AND INVESTMENTS $ 20,612,317.26 $ 21,426,578.42 $ 814,261.16 Summary of activity for the Month and Future Liquidity: The majority of the difference in the recorded value for cash held by the City from last month is mainly due to the receipt of March 2022 sales tax, April 2022 transient occupancy tax and receipt of property taxes. The value of investments decreased mainly due to unrealized losses on Certificate of Deposits (CDs). The portfolio is sufficiently liquid to meet expected expenditures for the coming six months.

Investment Summary
May 31, 2022
Currently, short-term excess cash is primarily invested in the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) administered by the State Treasurer. This is a high quality investment available in terms of safety, liquidity, and yield. Due to fluctuations in the marketplace, the City may have some investments with a current market value that is greater or less than the recorded value. This difference has no effect on investment yield as the City intends to hold the securities to maturity. However, generally accepted accounting principles require that market gains and losses be reported as interest earnings or losses at year-end.

City Council Agenda Staff Report
City Manager Review: SW
Council Agenda Item No.: 4
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Shannel Zamora, Finance Director
Meeting Date: June 23, 2022
Subject: Resolution No. 22-24 – “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Buellton, California, Establishing an Appropriation Limit for Fiscal Year 2022-23”
______________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
In 1979, the voters of the State of California passed Proposition 4, the “Gann Initiative”, which added Article XIII-B to the State Constitution. This Article provides that the City’s annual appropriations be subject to certain State limitations based upon budgeted appropriations for Fiscal Year 1978-79 and adjusted annually for changes in population and cost of living or personal income. New legislation under Proposition 98 and 111 modified the original provisions of the law, allowing exemptions for qualified capital projects and adjustment factor changes.
The limitation for Fiscal Year 2022-23 is $15,251,825. The Gann spending limitation is calculated by taking the prior year’s limitation of $14,161,322 and adjusting it by the growth factor in the California Per Capita Personal Income and the change in the population within Santa Barbara County. The City elected the higher change in population factor between the City of Buellton and Santa Barbara County. The appropriations subject to the limit is $8,040,137 which is under the appropriation limit by $7,211,688.
Therefore, the City of Buellton is in compliance with Article XIII-B of the California Constitution for Fiscal Year 2022-23. The Article XIII-B is not a restricting factor for the City of Buellton due to the combination of modest population growth and continued General Fund spending on qualified capital projects. These factors will continue to be monitored annually and if the use of alternative growth factors as authorized by Proposition 111 would result in a more advantageous appropriation limit, staff will revise the appropriations limit.
Under Government Code section 7910, documentation used in the determination of the appropriations limit is available to the public upon request.
Resolution No. 22-24 Page 2 June 23, 2022
FISCAL IMPACT
There will be no fiscal impact to the City because appropriations are below the limit.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council consider adoption of Resolution No. 22-24 – “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Buellton, California, Establishing an Appropriation Limit for Fiscal Year 2022-23”

Dear Fiscal Officer:
Subject: Price Factor and Population Information
Appropriations Limit
California Revenue and Taxation Code section 2227 requires the Department of Finance to transmit an estimate of the percentage change in population to local governments. Each local jurisdiction must use their percentage change in population factor for January 1, 2022, in conjunction with a change in the cost of living, or price factor, to calculate their appropriations limit for fiscal year 2022-23. Attachment A provides the change in California’s per capita personal income and an example for utilizing the price factor and population percentage change factor to calculate the 2022-23 appropriations limit. Attachment B provides the city and unincorporated county population percentage change. Attachment C provides the population percentage change for counties and their summed incorporated areas. The population percentage change data excludes federal and state institutionalized populations and military populations.
Population Percent Change for Special Districts
Some special districts must establish an annual appropriations limit. California Revenue and Taxation Code section 2228 provides additional information regarding the appropriations limit.
Article XIII B, section 9(C) of the California Constitution exempts certain special districts from the appropriations limit calculation mandate. The code section and the California Constitution can be accessed at the following website
Special districts required by law to calculate their appropriations limit must present the calculation as part of their annual audit. Any questions special districts have on this requirement should be directed to their county, district legal counsel, or the law itself. No state agency reviews the local appropriations limits.
Population Certification
The population certification program applies only to cities and counties. California Revenue and Taxation Code section 11005.6 mandates Finance to automatically certify any population estimate that exceeds the current certified population with the State Controller’s Office. Finance will certify the higher estimate to the State Controller by June 1, 2022.
Please Note: The prior year’s city population estimates may be revised. The per capita personal income change is based on historical data.
If you have any questions regarding this data, please contact the Demographic Research Unit at (916) 323-4086.

Attachment
May 2022
Attachment A
A. Price Factor: Article XIII B specifies that local jurisdictions select their cost of living factor to compute their appropriation limit by a vote of their governing body. The cost of living factor provided here is per capita personal income. If the percentage change in per capita personal income is selected, the percentage change to be used in setting the fiscal year 2022-23 appropriation limit is:
Per Capita Personal Income
Fiscal Year Percentage change
(FY) over prior year
2022-23 7.55
B. Following is an example using sample population change and the change in California per capita personal income as growth factors in computing a 2022-23 appropriation limit.
2022-23:
Per Capita Cost of Living Change = 7.55 percent
Population Change = -0.30 percent
Per Capita Cost of Living converted to a ratio: 7.55 + 100 = 1.0755 100
Population converted to a ratio: -0.30 + 100 = 0.997
100
Calculation of factor for FY 2022-23: 1.0755 x 0.997 = 1.0723

City Council Agenda Staff Report
City Manager Review: SW
Council Agenda Item No.: 6
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Scott Wolfe, City Manager
Meeting Date: June 23, 2022
Subject: Contract Amendment to the Agreement for Animal Control Services between the County of Santa Barbara and the City of Buellton – Fiscal Years 2022-2027
______________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
The County Animal Control Services contract expires on June 30, 2022. The County has provided a contract for the next 5 year period of service. The new contract incorporates cost recovery measures in the form of a phase-in of cost increases over the period of the contract. While significant as a percentage increase over the costs of services for the current fiscal year (3.3% the first year, and 5.6% for each of the next four years), the overall dollar value of this increase is relatively small. The past few years have seen very small increases to the Animal Control Services contract, with increases for the past two years being less than CPI. The opportunity to phase in (and lock in) cost increases over the next several years allows the City to adequately plan for and budget increased costs.
The Agreement provides that the County’s Division of Animal Services shall perform both field and shelter services including, but not limited to, impounds, shelter boarding, euthanasia, injured animal care, dead animal pick-up and disposal, code enforcement, and twenty-four hour emergency service requests.
The City cannot provide the same level of services for the amount charged through the Agreement. All other terms and conditions remain the same as in the Agreement for Animal Control Services for the last fiscal year. The services provided by the County have been satisfactory in providing animal control services within the City of Buellton.
FISCAL IMPACT
The cost for the services is $43,820 for Fiscal Year 2022-23, with increases of approximately 5.6% each year following. Adequate funds have been appropriated in the Fiscal Year 2022-23 budget for this item.
Animal Control Services Agreement Page 2 June 23, 2022
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council approve and authorize the City Manager to sign the Agreement for Animal Control Services between County of Santa Barbara and City of Buellton for Fiscal Years 2022-2027.

City Council Agenda Staff Report
City Manager Review: SW
Council Agenda Item No.: 7
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Rose Hess, Public Works Director
Meeting Date: June 23, 2022
Subject: Award of Contract for Wastewater Collection System Cleaning and Closed Circuit Television Inspection Services
______________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
The City has a wastewater collection system which consists of approximately 360 manholes, 60 clean-outs, two lift stations and approximately 20 miles (~96,000 lf) of gravity pipeline, ranging from 4-inches to 15-inches in diameter. This collection system transports raw sewage to the City’s wastewater treatment plant.
In May 2022, the City solicited proposals from qualified contractors to clean and video inspect the entire collection system over a period of 3 years. The purpose is to continue to assess the conditions of the sanitary sewer infrastructure and provide routine cleaning.
For each pipe segment, work will include cleaning and inspecting the pipe and adjacent manholes, and assessing and documenting the condition of both. Documentation for regular inspection and cleaning is required to comply with the state’s sewer system management program.
On June 7, staff received 2 proposals: Mainline Utility Company ($204,002.90) and National Plant Services ($295,455.30).
All firms were able to mobilize as soon as the City issues a Notice to Proceed. Proposals were reviewed and evaluated for licensing and appropriate experience and similar work references. Mainline Utility Company stood out as the most capable to perform based on their experience and their location (Lompoc). In addition, their low cost provided another advantage over the other respondents. Staff has contacted their references and reported their work performance as positive.
The scope of work is split into 3 areas in the proposal for potential phasing of work over several fiscal years. It is staff’s intent to start with Area 2 since that is closest to the City’s wastewater plant, moving to Area 3 to cover all the industrial/commercial areas, and finally Area 1 which is the newest infrastructure. The contract will cover the 3 year period in which the work will be performed.
CCTV/Sewer Cleaning Page 2 June 23, 2022
Work will commence in the 2022/23 Fiscal year, with the addition of any “hot spots” requested by staff.
FISCAL IMPACT
The CCTV/Sewer Line Cleaning project will need to be added to the budget (005-701- 60250) for FY 22/23 for $70,000. Future Areas to be completed in FY 23/24 ($70,000 and FY 24/25 ($80,000) will be budgeted accordingly. These budget requests exceed the contract amount to accommodate any additional cleaning needs the City may require and request of the contractor.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council award the contract for the Wastewater Collection System Cleaning and Closed Circuit Television Inspection Services in the amount of $204,002.90 over a 3 year period, authorize the city manager to execute that contract, and authorize the budget amendment increase for FY 22/23 in the amount of $70,000.

City Council Agenda Staff Report
City Manager Review: SW
Council Agenda Item No.: 9
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Scott Wolfe, City Manager
Meeting Date: June 23, 2022
Subject: Request for Use of Affordable Housing In-Lieu Funds from Palm Communities
______________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
Palm Communities (Palm) is the applicant and prospective developer of the Polo Village Project, which is currently being processed ministerially under the SB 35 entitlement process. Palm has requested the use of $341,491.000 of Affordable Housing In-Lieu funds to aid in the construction of their forty-nine (49) unit project which is to be affordable at the Very Low Income affordability level. The project is to be located at 560 McMurray Road (Assessor’s Parcel Number 137-090-067), just north of the Village Townhome neighborhood.
The Affordable Housing In-Lieu funds are paid to the City by developers whose projects have a requirement to provide affordable housing, but who choose to pay a fee in lieu of developing the actual units. A total of approximately $341,490.00 of these funds are currently held by the City, and Palm’s request will deplete the fund. The grant of these funds would be in the form of a residual receipts loan, meaning that the City would be repaid with any funds generated by the project after other expenses are paid.
Pursuant to Section 19.16.022.(A)(2) of the Buellton Municipal Code, the City Council has the authority to disburse these funds as it determines appropriate in accordance with the goals, policies, programs, and priorities identified in the City’s Housing Element. The provision of affordable housing as proposed by Palm is consistent with the City’s Housing policy.
The City Council has previously granted $150,000 of In-lieu funding to CEDC for the Village Senior Apartment Project, despite a request for the entire $490,000 in the fund at the time. .Staff recommended granting a reduced amount, anticipating the potential for use of these funds on two projects which were on the horizon: the Palm project, and the Buellton Garden Apartment project. Circumstances with the Buellton Garden Apartment project have evolved such that the need for these funds to achieve City policy goals is no longer present. Meanwhile, the Palm project continues to proceed toward entitlement, and
Request for Housing In-Lieu Funds Page 2 June 23, 2022
the use of the In-lieu funds for this project will significantly advance City goals with regard to the revitalization of the Avenue of Flags, through providing new affordable housing units which can replace the existing units found in the motels along the Avenue of Flags which were improperly converted to long-term residential rentals many years ago. This will allow the redevelopment of motel properties without requiring replacement units be constructed on-site.
Given the potential for aiding in this revitalization, and the lack of another project with as significant a potential to achieve the City’s policy goals, staff finds no reason not to grant the request for the remaining In-lieu funds to Palm.
FISCAL IMPACT
Action on this request will result in a fiscal impact in the amount determined to be granted to the applicant. However, these funds are restricted funds, held for use to promote the development of affordable housing, and their use does not therefore reflect an impact to the City’s General Fund.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council review the accompanying request for use of InLieu funds and, if deemed appropriate, authorize the use of In-lieu funds by Palm Communities.

City Council Agenda Staff Report
City Manager Review: SW
Council Agenda Item No.: 10
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Scott Wolfe, City Manager
Meeting Date: June 23, 2022
Subject: Contract with Buellton Chamber of Commerce for Operation of a Visitors Bureau
______________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
On June 30, 2022, the contract between the City and the Buellton Business Association/Chamber of Commerce (Chamber) for operation of the Visitors Bureau will expire following its most recent extension.
As previously discussed, a Request for Proposals (RFP) was released for Visitors Bureau Services on May 2. At the close of the proposal period, only one proposal was received.
This was from the Buellton Chamber of Commerce. The proposal that was received retained the existing services provided under the current contract, with a total cost of $450,000 per year. This is the same contract cost that the City has paid for the past several years.
Given the stability of the Chamber of Commerce and the beneficial services provided to the City by the Visitors Bureau, staff would recommend that the new contract specify a term of three (3) years, with an option for an additional three years if agreed to by both parties.
A new contract for Operation of Visitors Bureau Services is attached to this report. In addition to the term discussed above, a provision has been included which allows consideration by the City Council of a change in contract costs or other changes in the coming Fiscal Year if a request is received in writing by April 30 of the current Fiscal Year.
FISCAL IMPACT
This contract will result in an expenditure of $450,000.00 per fiscal year. These funds are expended in support of programs intended to boost tourism-related revenues (Sales Tax and Transient Occupancy Tax) which, if realized, have the potential to offset the expenditure.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute the attached “Service Contract between City of Buellton and Buellton Chamber of Commerce for Operation of a Visitors Bureau.”

(b) CONTRACTOR may terminate this AGREEMENT at any time upon thirty (30) days written notice of termination to CITY.

City Council Agenda Staff Report
City Manager Review: SW
Council Agenda Item No.: 11
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Scott Wolfe, City Manager
Meeting Date: June 23, 2022
Subject: Request to Authorize Funding for Environmental Studies for Willemsen Property Improvements
______________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
Since the City’s purchase of the Willemsen property, staff and the City Council have been working toward finding long-term uses for the site. A license agreement for the SYV Horseback Rides facility was approved in 2021, and work has begun on basic improvements for the SYV Children’s Museum. Design work has begun for the conversion of the residence to new uses, and preliminary work has begun on improving the barn for use as an event facility. In support of these uses, the City is also designing a parking lot to be constructed on the lower portion of the property to serve all of these uses, in addition to possible sports fields that are being proposed.
Before the City can contract for construction or grant planning permits for these facilities, Environmental review must be conducted and an appropriate document issued, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Staff has investigated various sources for obtaining these services. Because they involve technical studies, in-house staff cannot complete this work without outside consultant assistance. Initial discussions with a consultant that the City typically uses for CEQA work resulted in an estimate of approximately $60,000 and a start date of 60-90 days out. However, working with one of our contract planners, the work for the preparation of the document can be paid for through the budget used to pay for his work, and the technical studies (anticipated to include traffic, noise, air quality, greenhouse gas emissions, and biology) can be contracted for separately.
This approach should significantly reduce costs and allow for the completion of the documentation which would allow work to begin on the improvements much more quickly.
Staff is requesting that the City Council authorize the expenditure of $40,000 for the various studies and other work necessary to complete the CEQA documentation. Staff will then contract separately for the work to be done. In the event that a contract amount exceeds the City Manager’s spending authority, staff will return to the City Council for contract approval.
Funds for Willemsen Property CEQA Documents Page 2 June 23, 2022 These costs have not been budgeted. Therefore, a budget adjustment will be required. If this funding request is approved, the Finance Director will include this amount in the next quarterly budget adjustment.
FISCAL IMPACT
This request, if approved, will have a fiscal impact to the City’s General Fund in an amount not to exceed $40,000. Any amount needed beyond this amount will require additional City Council authorization.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council consider the authorization of a General Fund expenditure in an amount not to exceed $40,000 for CEQA documentation for the Willemsen property improvements, and authorize a Budget Adjustment in the amount of forty thousand dollars ($40,000).
