Subject: Rispin
Dear Capitola City Council,
I’m writing in support of Item 8A, The Park at Rispin Mansion.
As a Board Member of Capitola Cares, I’m thrilled at the prospect of partnering with the City to thoughtfully expand the park’s elements. We are deeply grateful to Jessica Hahn and Chloe Woodmansee for their guidance and steady support throughout this process thus far. It is truly a pleasure to collaborate with them.
Each time I visit the new park, I’m struck by how many families and individuals are already enjoying the space. Thoughtful enhancements will only strengthen its role as a happy gathering place for our community.
Access to quality outdoor space is essential to both physical and mental well-being.
Expanding and improving this park reflects Capitola’s commitment to community connection, health, and shared civic life. We are excited about the opportunity to help grow and steward this open space for the benefit of residents now and for generations to come.
Best Regards,
Heidy Kellison

Subject: Item 8B
Mayor and Council Members -
As a Jewel Box resident for nearly 60 years who drives the Cap Rd / 41st Ave corridor oŌen several Ɵmes a day, the NO RIGHT TURN from west bound Cap Rd to north bound 41st ranks right up there with the Bay Ave boondoggle. The bike boxes are never uƟlized - they are a waste of green paint. Traffic oŌen backs up past the entrance and exits from Whole Foods, trapping people in the parking lot.
When the light turns green, if a pedestrian is crossing 41st Ave and the first car in line in the right hand lane wants to make a right turn, no one in the queue of vehicles moves. A free right turn in red, as was the case forever, would free up traffic movement and eliminate the pedestrian / vehicle conflict that has been created (right turn only at the same Ɵme pedestrians are allowed to cross).
Since the NO RIGHT TURN has been in effect, and passing through that intersecƟon hundreds of Ɵmes, I have witnessed ONLY ONE pedestrian crossing Cap Rd between the Chevron StaƟon and Wells Fargo Bank. The conflict between cars making a right turn on red and pedestrians making that crossing is nearly non-existent while the right turn on green only has created daily vehicle/pedestrian conflicts.
Cars rouƟnely cut through the Whole Foods parking lot to avoid the backup or make a right turn on red regardless of the prohibiƟon. Like the Bay Ave boondoggle, the NO RIGHT TURN on red creates more unsafe driver acƟons and vehicle/pedestrian conflicts than it seeks to prohibit.
Finally, I have sat in the queue going westbound on Cap Rd only to have the light cycle to red aŌer two or three cars are able to pass through the intersecƟon. I have witnessed this occurrence mulƟple Ɵmes, at all Ɵmes during the day, and at all different levels of traffic. I have wriƩen Jessica Kahn mulƟple Ɵmes regarding the Ɵming only to be told every Ɵme the lights are funcƟoning properly. It's obvious Ms Kahn does not drive the intersecƟon frequently enough to experience the problem..
Please support removing the NO RIGHT TURN sign and bring some sanity back to this intersecƟon. This was done by the same group that brought us the Bay Ave boondoggle if that's any indicaƟon how well thought out it was. And please instruct Ms Kahn to observe and check the light Ɵming.

Subject: 26 Feb 2026 Agenda item 8B
Hello, Council members,
Thank you for considering removing the no right turn on red light sign on Capitola Road westbound at 41st Avenue.
Placement of this sign is understandable, with the addition of the 'green zone' for bicyclists, which pushes back the limit line for vehicles westbound, preventing a clear sight line to the left. But the downsides to this green zone far out-weigh its benefits.
1. Bicyclists do not use the green zone. Only once have I seen a cyclist at the intersection in the green zone. As a cyclist, I would not feel safe with vehicles lined up behind me rushing out when the light turns green. That's why we have bike lanes. It's far too dangerous to mix motor vehicles with cyclists in the same lane of traffic, especially on an arterial street.
2. The queue to wait for a green light to turn right may require 2-3 light cycles before a right turn is permitted. It takes just one person walking across 41st Ave to hold up most of the green light time, waiting for the pedestrian to safely cross. I have witnessed a queue backing up to 42nd Ave, the first street back, in a line of approximately 10-12 vehicles.
3. Astute drivers on approach often see the red light, so they turn right northbound on 42nd Avenue - a residential street - speeding through the neighborhood. Alternately, drivers will turn into the Wells Fargo / Whole Foods parking lot seeking to bypass the wait time at unsafe speeds for a parking lot where pedestrians cross to the bank ATM machines.
4. Air pollutants are unnecessarily emitted from tail pipes from a line of awaiting vehicles - with nearly every light change cycle.
Prudence dictates that the no right turn on red sign be removed and commensurately the green zone for bicyclists is removed. Cyclists do not need their own zone to safely cross 41st Ave.
As a suggestion to prevent such further lapses in judgement, I suggest a citizen group provide feedback to any future improvements before they are approved and constructed, saving us all both time and funds.

Subject: 2.26.2026 Agenda item 8B - No Right Turn on Red – Clares & Capitola Road Public Comment – Request to Remove No Right Turn on Red at Capitola Road & 41st Avenue I appreciate the staff’s explanation of the engineering rationale behind the No Right Turn on Red restriction at westbound Capitola Road and 41st Avenue. Safety absolutely matters. No one is arguing against protecting cyclists or pedestrians.
However, the current restriction appears to be a blunt solution to a problem that has not been clearly demonstrated with current data.
The staff report states that recent crash data does not show an increase in injury crashes following corridor modifications. If injury crashes have not increased, then we should ask whether the full-time No Right Turn restriction is solving a documented safety problem — or creating unnecessary operational friction.
The Capitola Road condition is described as a “permanent geometric and bicycle safety condition” due to the bike box configuration. But the key question is this:
Is the conflict theoretical, or is it measurable?
If cyclists are regularly using the bike box in significant numbers and if right-hook conflicts are occurring at a documented rate, then restrictions may be warranted. But if bicycle volumes are low and injury data does not reflect an active hazard, then a full-time prohibition may not be proportional.
Meanwhile, the real-world impacts are measurable:
• Vehicle queues backing up into adjacent commercial driveways • Diversion traffic into residential streets
• Increased idling and emissions
• Drivers making unsafe workarounds
When drivers experience repeated delay that feels disconnected from observable risk, compliance drops. That erodes respect for traffic controls more broadly.
There are alternatives that should be explored before maintaining a permanent full-time restriction:
1. A time-of-day restriction instead of full-time.
2. A pilot removal with targeted enforcement and data monitoring.
3. Additional signage or visibility treatments instead of prohibition.
4. Signal timing adjustments to improve right-turn opportunity without compromising bike positioning.
8 Item 4 B.
2 The goal should be proportional safety measures supported by local data, not permanent restrictions based solely on geometric theory.
This intersection is a major commercial access point. Small operational changes have large ripple effects. If the data does not show a clear injury pattern attributable to right turns on red at this location, then maintaining a full-time ban may be an overcorrection.
I respectfully request that Council direct staff to either:
• Remove the No Right Turn on Red restriction at westbound Capitola Road and 41st Avenue, or • Conduct a formal review with updated crash, bicycle volume, and operational delay data and return with quantified findings before maintaining the restriction.
Safety and mobility are not opposites. Good engineering balances both.
Thank You
Kevin Maguire

Subject: 2.26.2026 Agenda Item 8C Comments on FY 2025-26 Mid-Year Budget and Long-Term Revenue Stability
Mayor Morgan and Council Members,
I appreciate the thorough mid-year budget report and the work staff has done to maintain a structurally balanced budget. While the adjustments appear reasonable in the short term, I am concerned about the City’s longer-term financial position and the broader context in which these numbers sit.
The report notes that the General Fund beginning balance dropped significantly from the prior year and that we are projecting a relatively modest year-end balance. At the same time, parking citation revenues are underperforming, overtime pressures remain in the Police Department, and several revenue categories are flattening after prior growth. While the net General Fund impact of the proposed amendment is zero, the margin for error appears thin.
This becomes especially important when viewed alongside the pending redevelopment of the Capitola Mall site and the City’s reliance on sales tax revenue.
Measure Y is currently helping stabilize revenues. However, if we experience any downturn in retail performance, shifts in consumer behavior, or structural changes to our sales tax base—particularly during or after mall redevelopment—the City could face significant exposure. Redevelopment often includes transitional periods where taxable retail activity declines before new uses are fully operational.
If housing replaces a meaningful portion of sales-tax-generating retail, we need to clearly understand how that impacts long-term fiscal sustainability.
Housing contributes property tax and economic activity, but it also increases demand for services— public safety, infrastructure maintenance, parks, and traffic management. If redevelopment reduces net sales tax while increasing service obligations, the City could face structural imbalance within a few fiscal cycles.
Given the current mid-year numbers and the relatively limited fund balance cushion, I respectfully suggest the following:
1. Conduct and publicly share a long-term fiscal impact analysis of the Capitola Mall redevelopment scenarios, including various retail-to-housing ratios.
2. Model the impact of potential sales tax volatility or loss and identify contingency strategies.
3. Evaluate whether new development should include dedicated ongoing revenue mechanisms to offset service impacts.
4. Prioritize rebuilding and maintaining a stronger General Fund reserve position during the upcoming budget cycle.
10 Item 4 C.
2 The mid-year report shows that staff is managing responsibly. However, the larger policy question is whether our revenue structure is resilient enough to support future growth and redevelopment decisions.
I encourage Council to use the FY 2026-27 budget process to connect these financial realities directly to redevelopment planning, so that land use decisions and fiscal sustainability remain aligned.
Thank you for your continued service to Capitola.
Sincerely,
Kevin Maguire

Capitola City Council
Agenda Report
Meeting: February 26, 2026
From: City Manager Department
Subject: Landscape Plans for the Park at Rispin Mansion Recommended Action: 1) Approve the updated landscape plan for the Park at Rispin Mansion; 2) provide direction regarding a commemorative paver project at the Park; and 3) authorize staff to negotiate a memorandum of understanding with Capitola Cares to coordinate fundraising efforts for additional elements at the Park.
Background: The City of Capitola initiated plans for a park at the Rispin Mansion site in 2014. Significant community outreach and collaboration helped shape the project vision, which included an extensive landscape design and planting plan prepared by Michael Arnone and Associates. The Park at Rispin Mansion Project (Park) is a multi-year effort to create a new public park and event space on the historic Rispin Mansion property, providing community gathering areas, open space, and access to the Soquel Creek corridor. The project includes an amphitheater, walking loop, fountain plaza, sundial installation, and multiple landscaped and undeveloped areas, with design elements intended to reflect the site’s historic character.
On July 28, 2022, the City Council approved the plans, specifications, and construction budget for the Project. On February 3, 2023, staff published an advertisement inviting construction bids; however, no bids were received at the public bid opening held on February 22, 2023. Subsequent outreach to potential bidders indicated the project budget was insufficient for the full scope of work. Consistent with provisions of the Public Contract Code, staff worked with a local contractor, Betz Works, to develop a feasible scope of work within the approved budget.
On March 28, 2024, Council approved a professional services agreement with Betz Works in the amount of $949,000 to complete the amended scope of work. Construction began in spring 2024. As part of the revised scope, the extensive planting plan was removed from the construction project, with the understanding that additional landscape improvements would be completed later as funding and resources allowed. The current project includes City-installed landscaping adjacent to the grand staircase and along the wall fronting Wharf Road. Remaining non-landscaped areas were finished with topsoil, landscape wood chips, and stubbed-out water service to support future planting and irrigation.
On August 28, 2025, staff provided an update to Council on the Park at Rispin Mansion Project and requested Council direction regarding a landscaping approach. Council directed staff to seek a volunteer community partner for the installation and maintenance of landscaping at the Park. The selected partner could offer labor and financial support for improved landscaping at the new park.
At the September 25, 2025, Council meeting, staff proposed executing a professional services agreement with Michael Arnone and Associates to modify the original landscape design and planting plan, and Council directed staff to return with an updated landscaping plan that reflects community expectations while remaining feasible for long-term maintenance. At that time, the possibility of a community partner performing the planting and maintenance at the Park at Rispin Mansion was explored. No organizations have currently identified themselves as interested in providing such services.
The updated landscaping plan (Attachment 1) was developed to maintain the original feel and style as much as possible, while reducing cost and ongoing maintenance demands. As proposed, all improvements identified in the plan can feasibly be purchased, installed, and maintained by existing Public Works staff using current operational resources. While these improvements are feasible within existing staffing capacity, specific plant purchases are not currently budgeted. Plant materials and 16 Item 8 A.
installation supplies are estimated at $50,000 for most of the proposed landscaping. Additionally, to irrigate, test, and plant groundcover in the three upper terrace areas, $60,000 more would be required.
Discussion: The proposed plan identifies plant materials and landscape areas that are consistent with current City maintenance practices, emphasizing drought-tolerant species, durability, and long-term sustainability. Improvements may be implemented in phases as staff capacity allows while maintaining routine park operations.
Approval of the revised landscaping plan will allow staff to proceed with purchasing materials and completing installation as part of ongoing park maintenance activities. It should be noted the final landscaping plan for portions of the park may be revised based on the existing conservation easement on the property.
Community Paver Program
During the August 28, 2025, Council meeting, Council expressed interest in a fundraising project using commemorative pavers for select areas within the Park that are currently finished with decomposed granite, rather than hardscape due to budget constraints. A paver program would allow members of the public, families, and local organizations to purchase engravable pavers, creating an opportunity for the community to become a lasting part of the Park while contributing to park enhancements.
Staff has identified the reflecting pool plaza area at the south side of the center terrace, surrounding the pool area, as conducive for engraved commemorative pavers. A paver program would raise funds to install historically complementary paver stones in both the sundial and reflecting pool areas of the Park.
The identified area around the reflecting pool would contain approximately 5,000 pavers, comfortably featuring about 400 engraved pavers, each four inches by eight inches in size.
Staff estimates the cost of procuring and installing the full paver stone project in both the sundial and reflecting pool areas would be $80,000. Selling ~400 paver stones at $200 each would cover this cost.
If directed by Council, staff will prepare a more detailed paver program for consideration at a future Council meeting. The item would include more detailed cost estimates, recommended paver types, and identify the public process for ordering personalized pavers.
Potential Fundraising Partnership
In late fall 2025, Capitola Cares, a new local nonprofit organization, expressed interest in raising funds to support additional enhancements at the Park. The nonprofit is interested in raising and directing funds for the following three potential City Public Works projects:
1. Fund a contract to construct the previously designed eight-pillar arbor at the north of the central terrace area.
2. Purchase and install artificial turf in the three upper terrace areas.
3. Fund costs associated with making existing fountain functional (activating the emitter feature only, not the reflecting pool).
Should Council wish to pursue this opportunity, staff recommends a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City and the nonprofit organization. The MOU would establish fundraising parameters, clarify roles and responsibilities, and address ownership, construction standards, and longterm maintenance obligations associated with any improvements.
If directed by Council, staff would prepare a draft MOU for consideration at a future Council meeting.
Fiscal Impact: The costs to purchase, install, and maintain the proposed landscaping plan (Attachment 1) is estimated at no more than $110,000 ($50,000, excluding the three upper terrace areas). If directed staff would include options to fund this work for Council consideration during the upcoming budget adoption cycle.

Capitola City Council
Agenda Report
Meeting: February 26, 2026
From: Public Works Department
Subject: No Right Turn on Red Restrictions: Clares Street/Capitola Road Recommended Action: Receive a report regarding the “No Right Turn on Red” restrictions for westbound Clares Street to northbound 41st Avenue and westbound Capitola Road to northbound 41st Avenue.
Background: The intersections of Clares Street and Capitola Road with 41st Avenue function as key access points along a high-volume commercial corridor with substantial turning activity, pedestrian crossings, and bicycle use.
Historical crash data summarized in a 2012 staff report documented elevated collision frequency at the Clares Street intersection between approximately 2007 and 2012. In response, the City implemented lane reconfiguration and turn control modifications around 2012 to improve intersection safety and operations.
Subsequent City projects have further influenced intersection operations, including:
41st Avenue Adaptive Signal Coordination Project (2021–2023): Implementation of adaptive signal timing to improve corridor progression, reduce delay and emissions, and coordinate operations across multiple intersections, including Clares Street and Capitola Road. Clares Street Traffic Calming and Multimodal Improvements (2022): Operational refinements addressing turning activity and ongoing conflicts associated with southbound-to-northbound Uturn movements on 41st Avenue, which are commonly used to access destinations and freeway on-ramps north of the intersection.
Capitola Road Pavement Rehabilitation and Bicycle Safety Improvements (2023): Installation of bicycle positioning treatments, including a bike box and crossbike-style markings, intended to improve cyclist visibility and reduce turning conflicts at the intersection.
As a result of these projects and observed operational conditions, No Right Turn on Red (NTOR) restrictions were implemented at the westbound Clares Street and westbound Capitola Road approaches to address identifiable turning conflicts.
On February 12, City Council requested an update regarding the purpose of these restrictions.
Discussion:
Authority and Purpose of No Right Turn on Red Restrictions California Vehicle Code Section 21453 permits right turns on red, unless prohibited by posted signage.
The California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA MUTCD Section 2B.60) allows agencies to implement NTOR restrictions where engineering judgment indicates permissive right turns would create safety or operational concerns.
Common conditions supporting NTOR restrictions include:
conflicting turning movements
bicycle and pedestrian interaction
complex geometry or limited right-of-way
high driver workload
unpredictable signal timing or traffic gaps
The restrictions at both intersections reflect these standard traffic engineering considerations. 37 Item 8 B.
Westbound Clares Street to Northbound 41st Avenue (Time-Limited Restriction) The Clares Street NTOR restriction was implemented following earlier intersection modifications.to address a recurring conflict between:
vehicles making permissive right turns on red from westbound Clares Street, and vehicles performing southbound-to-northbound U-turn movements on 41st Avenue.
Drivers turning right on red must primarily scan for through traffic from the left, while U-turning vehicles approach from outside the driver’s primary expectation area, increasing angle conflict potential. Further, due to intersection geometry drivers turning right from westbound Clares have reduced view of the pedestrian crosswalk.
Because this conflict is most pronounced during daytime traffic periods with higher turning volumes and multimodal activity, the restriction is applied on a time-limited basis (10 AM-6 PM).
Westbound Capitola Road to Northbound 41st Avenue (Full-Time Restriction) Unlike the Clares Street condition, the Capitola Road restriction addresses a permanent geometric and bicycle safety condition associated with Council-approved roadway improvements. The Capitola Road NTOR restriction was implemented as part of the 2023 pavement rehabilitation and bicycle safety improvements project.
The westbound approach includes a bike box and bicycle crossing markings intended to position bicyclists ahead of vehicles at the stop line and improve intersection visibility.
Permissive right turns on red introduce right-hook collision risk because:
bicyclists are positioned directly in the path of turning vehicles, drivers turning right on red focus primarily on left-turn gaps, and limited right-of-way prevents installation of a protected right-turn lane or offset bicycle transition.
The 2023 staff report notes the bike box configuration required modification of right-turn operations and established a NTOR condition because available roadway width does not allow installation of a dedicated right-turn lane on the westbound Capitola Road approach.
Several striping and operational alternatives were evaluated during project development with the primary objective of improving bicycle visibility and reducing turning conflicts. However, available roadway width and driveway/access constraints limited the ability to separate right-turning vehicles from bicyclists or provide a dedicated right-turn lane. The adopted configuration improves bicycle visibility and reduces turning conflicts while working within these geometric constraints, although it may increase perceived delay for the westbound right-turn movement.
Because the bicycle positioning and turning conflict exists regardless of traffic volume, the Capitola Road NTOR restriction is implemented full-time.
Staff recognizes the full-time restriction may contribute to delays for right-turning vehicles and queue formation during congested periods. However, the constrained geometry limits operational flexibility, and the current configuration reflects a tradeoff between minimizing delay and maintaining bicycle visibility and safety.
41st Avenue Adaptive Signals
The 41st Avenue Adaptive Signal Coordination Project implemented dynamic signal control along the corridor, including the Clares Street and Capitola Road intersections. The project was intended to reduce travel time, improve progression, and reduce emissions by improving coordination between signals.
While adaptive coordination improves overall corridor operations, it can reduce predictable turning gaps that drivers rely on for permissive turning decisions. This increases the importance of targeted turn controls at locations with known conflicts.
38 Item 8 B.
Crash History Context
Crash data indicates that both intersections have experienced collision activity over time, with higher crash frequency documented at Clares Street before the 2012 lane reconfiguration.
Injury crash data since that time shows reduced but persistent collision occurrence. Statewide TIMS data reflects injury crashes only and does not capture minor collisions or near misses; therefore, crash data was considered alongside operational observations and conflict analysis.
Recent crash data does not indicate an increase in injury crashes following implementation of corridor signal coordination, traffic calming, or bicycle safety improvements.
Summary
The Clares Street restriction addresses time-of-day operational conflicts associated with U-turn interactions and adaptive signal timing, and the Capitola Road restriction addresses a permanent geometric and bicycle safety condition associated with the bike box treatment. Both restrictions are consistent with California traffic engineering practice and represent targeted measures to reduce turning conflict risk while maintaining corridor mobility.
Fiscal Impact: None associated with maintaining the existing restrictions. Costs could occur if Council directs changes to signage, striping, or signal operations.

Recommended Action: Receive the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Mid-Year Budget Report and adopt a resolution amending the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Budget.
Background: The Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26 Mid-Year Budget Report provides an update on the City’s financial status as of December 31, 2025, and recommends budget adjustments for FY 2025-26 that better reflect current projections. The City’s major revenue sources are currently tracking consistently with budget projections. General Fund expenditures are currently slightly ahead of projections; however, expenditures are expected to end the year at, or below, budget.
Discussion: General Fund revenues are performing consistently with expectations, primarily due to property tax and sales tax performing slightly above budget projections. Intergovernmental revenues are performing well above expectations, while fines and forfeitures are performing well under projections. All other General Fund revenues are performing as expected, but are showing signs of leveling off following the growth experienced over the last few years.
Total General Fund expenditures are trending near the FY 2025–26 Amended Budget but are currently slightly below budgeted levels. Staff has reviewed the data for the first half of the fiscal year’s General Fund activities and is recommending budget amendments to revenues as well as expenditures.
Revenues: The FY 2025-26 adopted budget included approximately $9.7 million of sales tax revenue, which is approximately $948,000 (11%) above receipts in the prior fiscal year. The increase was projected because this is the first full year of the City receiving revenue due to Measure Y, which adds approximately $825,000 of revenue from the prior year ($1.1 million annually) and a projected increase of 2.3% in sales tax revenue growth. At the mid-point of this fiscal year, sales tax receipts are tracking on budget with sales tax revenue up 11%.
Property tax revenues are slightly above budget estimates, while TOT is slightly below budget estimates. Cannabis tax, while tracking higher than the prior year, is still slightly behind budget, while franchise fees continue to exceed budget projections. Total tax revenues are slightly above budget expectations for this point in the fiscal year.
Licenses and permits are tracking ahead of last year and on budget. Building permit activity has increased and is tracking ahead of budget, while business license activity picked up over the prior year, primarily due to the introduction of online payments. All other license and permit activities are performing within budget projections.
Charges for services are tracking close to budget projections. Parking pay station revenue, budgeted at $1.2 million, is performing as expected. Reimbursement revenue for Police Department services during special events has exceeded the annual budget, with a few special events still to come during the current fiscal year. This revenue directly offsets PD overtime costs related to special events. Plan check fees are performing similarly to the prior year, while Community Services & Recreation fees are slightly below prior year amounts, however still 62 Item 8 C.
tracking on budget.
Fines and forfeitures, which include parking citation revenue, are at 25% of the expected amount at the halfway point in the year. This is due primarily to parking citation revenue, which is at $153,000 of the $600,500 budgeted amount. This has been a trend over the past several fiscal years as we have faced staffing and equipment challenges. Staff anticipates normal parking operations for the remainder of this fiscal year and going forward; however, staff is recommending a budget amendment reducing parking citation revenues by $150,000. Staff is also recommending an offsetting budget amendment in expenditures, outlined below.
Expenditures: City departments have consistently maintained expenditures within the adopted budget. Through December, the City has expended approximately 59% of the budgeted General Fund, including encumbrances, while being 50% through the fiscal year. The primary reason is that the City prepaid the annual $2.9 million Unfunded Actuarial Pension Liability (UAL) in July 2025 as opposed to making monthly payments, resulting in savings of approximately $98,500.
This results in personnel costs showing higher as a percentage of the budget as we amortize the payment over the course of the year. However, after accounting for the UAL payment, we are about $200,000 (2%) below budget Citywide in personnel costs as of December 31, 2025.
Personnel costs in the Police Department have been especially challenging as they have managed multiple vacancies and the training of new staff. While overtime has already exceeded the total annual budget at the mid-year point, salary savings from those vacancies have resulted in total Police Department personnel costs slightly below budget. In addition to a recommended budget amendment in Parking Enforcement, to adjust both revenue and expenditures, salary savings from the vacant Police Officer position ($36,000) and two vacant Multi-Service Officer positions ($64,000) are being utilized to assist in balancing the parking enforcement budget.
Contract services are at sixty-four percent (64%) of the budget at the mid-year point. This is due in part to several large, non-discretionary annual contracts in which the majority of the annual amount is paid early in the fiscal year, legal fees continue to exceed budget projections primarily due to Public Records Act requests and other legal matters, and higher than anticipated vehicle towing fees related to law enforcement activities. Contract services for consulting services are higher than projected as a result of staffing vacancies in the Community and Economic Development Department and staff is recommending a budget amendment to move funds from wages to contract services.
Budget Amendments: Staff requests a budget amendment in the General Fund to align with updated budget projections based on actual year-to-date activity, which maintains a structurally balanced budget.

Due to prior fiscal year performance, the projected FY 2025-26 year-ending fund balance is estimated at $200,000 and will be evaluated during the next budget cycle.
Fiscal Impact: If approved, the requested budget amendment decreases General Fund revenues $80,000 and General Fund expenditures $80,000. In addition, the budget amendment allocates existing fund balance in the SB1 RMRA & Measure D to future road projects.
