BUDGET MESSAGE
HONORABLE MAYOR, MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL, AND RESIDENTS OF CATHEDRAL CITY:
After months of review and discus sions, we are pleased to present the adopted Biennial Budget for Fiscal Years
(FY) 2023/2024 and 2024/2025 for the City of Cathedral City (Operating Budget, Capital Improvement Project (CIP) Plan), and Park Improvement Project (PIP) Plan), the Su ccessor Agency to the Cathedral City Redevelopment Agency (“Successor Agency”), Cathedral City as the Housing Succ essor Agency, and the Cathedral City Public Financing Authority.
This biennial budget was developed with a primary focu s to accomplish City Council strategies and goals established in January 2023. Departments reviewed their past accomplishments and developed objectives focusing on achieving these overarching City Council goals:
Serving the Community with Pride and Dedication
Community Investment
Fiscal Stability and Sustainability
Innovation
Safety
Embracing, Inclusive City
FINANCIAL STATUS OVERVIEW
These past three years have proven to be challenging for the City of Cathedral City with the COVID-19 global pandemic. The City has been proactive in taking measures to mitigate possible negative economic effects by making reductions to City staffing and department operating budgets. Despite initial losses in tax revenues in certain areas, the City of Cathedral City was able to navigate through the pandemic without any major pitfalls. There continues to be stability with some modest increases in property values along with an increase in single family dwelling development, which translates into increased revenues for t he City. The City continues to tread cautiously as any future effects on the economy are still unknown.
Over the past decade, balancing the budget has been challenging for the City. Coming out of the lingering effects of the Great Recession, the City has been able to stabilize, achieve a net surplus in nine of the past 10 fiscal years with significant growth in our Fund Balance, or “savi ngs account”. During the past two fiscal years the adopted general fund budgets were adopted with projected deficits ; however, a surplus was recognized in FY 2021/2022, and we anticipate a net surplus in FY 2022/2023.
BUDGET MESSAGE
To illustrate, revenues grew from $37,178 million in FY 2015/2016 to $62.396 million in FY 2021/2022. With the economic downturn in 2007-2009, it was necessary to gener ate a stable source of revenues to ensure the City’s ability to maintain financial solvency. This stability was achieved through the support of Cathedral City residents to pass local revenues measures. From the Utility Users’ Tax (Measure L) passed in 2008 to the Transactions and Use Tax (Measure H) passed in 2010 coupled with Measure B in 2014, eliminating the Measure H tax sunset, these measures have resulted in a secure revenue source. In FY 2015/2016, the City Council pursued diversifying the City’s tax revenue source through a Cannabis Tax allowing this burgeoning business sector to establish tax revenues for dispensary, cultivation, and manufacturing businesses in the City. As a result of these Council driven and Community supported measures, the City has been able to diversify revenue sources to the levels it receives today.
FY 2023/2024 AND FY 2024/2025 BUDGET OVERVIEW
Citywide Financials
The City’s operating budget includes a variety of funding sources. The General Fund is the largest single fund and represents the City’s primary operating fund. Other funds include special revenue funds, capital projects funds, debt service funds, internal service funds, and private purpose trust funds. The total City expenditure budget for FY 2023/2024 is $147.6 million; and is $139.5 million for FY 2024/2025. The General Fund budgeted revenues for FY 2023/2024 are $67.0 million, and the budgeted expenditures are $69.6 million, resulting in a net deficit of $2.6 million. For FY 2024/2025, the General Fund budgeted revenues are $64.6 million, and the budgeted expenditures are $70.4 million, resulting in a net defic it of $5.3 million. With these projecti ons, the General Fund is projected to be $39.0 million at the start of FY 2023/2024, approximately $13 million above the 33% fund balance threshold ($22.9 million) of the FY 2024/2025 budgeted expenditures. This change in fund balance for the General Fund is primarily due to savings achieved from the budget cu ts implemented during the pandemic; however, there are increased personnel costs in the future that may present a challenge in future budget years.

BUDGET MESSAGE
Citywide Staffing
Over the years and especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, labor force reductions have been in response to budget shortfalls, causing various departments to do more with less. Staffing resources have declined from a high of 238 FTEs (full-time equivalents) in FY 2007/2008 to 221 FTEs in the FY 2023/2024 budget and 223 FTEs in the FY 2024/2025 budget, resulting in a staffing decrease of 6.72% over the past 17 years. In doing so, City departments and staff will continue “working smarter, not harder” in providing high-quality services while protecting the safety of Cathedral City residents through innovation, ingenuity, and employee productivity. To that means, the City has achieved significant savings from the implementation of many facets of the enterprise-wide resource planning (ERP) system. The City is on the verge of implementing enh anced customer service capabilities by implementing an on- line customer self-service portal to better service the needs of the Cathedral City community.
FINANCIAL OPPORTUNITIES
Over the last 15 years, the periodic question from the community has been: “why does the City appear to have a never-ending budget problem?” And, more specifically, “why is there still a problem given the City has had various tax measures?” These questions are valid and are primar ily due to these two components: The City is still experiencing a recovery of core revenues, and the City is experiencing increased labor costs.
The City’s core annual revenues traditionally consist of taxes (property, sales and use, and transient occupancy), franchise fees, licenses and permits, charges for services, fines and forfeits, intergovernmental revenues, use of money and property, and miscellaneous revenues. In additi on to these core revenues, the General Fund would receive transfers in from other City funds for miscellaneous reimbursements.
Over the past 15 years, these additional tax revenue source s have allowed Cathedral City to diversify its revenue stream.
Effective April 1, 2009, the Utility Us ers’ Tax (UUT) became effective. UUT imposed a 3% tax on the use of telecommunications, cable (video), electricity (including cogenerated), gas, and solid waste. In FY 2023/2024, UUT is projected to generate $3.7 million in annual revenues. Effective June 2010, the Transactions and Use Tax (TUT) became effective imposing a 1% tax on all retailers doing business within the city. In FY 2023/2024, TUT is projected to generate $10.0 million in annual revenues. During FY 2015/2016, Cannabis Tax revenues became effe ctive for licensed/operating dispensary, cultivation, and manufacturing facilities. In FY 2023/2024, Cannabis Tax is projected to generate $4.0 million in annual revenues.
Going forward, the challenge will be to balance each fisca l year’s budget on its own without dipping into General Fund reserves. To ensure long-term viability, the City needs to not only maintain, but also grow the core revenues discussed above along with the additional tax revenues, i.e., UUT, TUT and Cannabis Tax.
Economic and Business Development
As pointed out in the previous section, revenue growth has occurred in core revenues over the past 15 years, most notably sales and use taxes which are generated from taxable transactions on goods sold. Total taxable transactions reached a peak of more than $1 billion in CY 2005, and then a low of $600 million just three years later in CY 2008. Fortunately, the City ha s seen a consistent rise in taxable transactions since CY 2015 to exceed $1 billion in CY 2019. In the coming years, we strive to pursue opportunities for Cathedral City to maintain sustainable growth well into the future.
BUDGET MESSAGE
For the City to continue this growth trend, core revenue growth is accomplished not only by the economy, but also through community engagement and strong community rela tions, a goal established by the City Council that continues into the upcoming biennial budget period. This will be accompli shed through community newsletters, social media presence and the continued growth of specia l events. As the economy continues to recover from the great recession and COVID-19 pandemic, City staff, under the direction of City Council, continues to devise and implement new revenue-generating strategies in order to provide Cathedral City residents with the necessary level and highest quality services available within our current capabilities. Through the City Council-adopted goals, one of the key strategies for that growth is to continue to maintain and improve upon the infrastructure of Cathedral City.
Included in this biennial budget, is the Capital Impr ovement Project (CIP) Plan recommending significant investments in the City’s streets and road, and the introduction of a Parks Improvement Project (PIP) Plan making significant investments in the City’s parks. Both these plans provide infrastructure and recreation, not only for our existing residents and businesses that call Cathedral City home, but also assisting in attracting new residents and businesses as part of our City’s future growth, especially in the northern portions of Cathedral City.
Other key strategies adopted by the City Council are to look at ways to provide necessary infrastructure (both new and improved) and to expand the City’s footprint through growth and development opportunities; finalize the update to the City’s General Plan; refine our marketing narrati ves to appropriately define who we are; and continue the development of the downtown area. To assist in that development, the new Cathedral City Community Amphitheater venue has opened recently for City events, musical performances and arts, theatre, and cultural events. In addition, the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians (ACBCI) has recently opened their newest and most innovative state- of-the-art Casino in downtown Cathedral City.
City Council and staff continue to enhance the transparency of ci ty government and the availability of information to the public, while ensuring the ongoing public safety co mmitment to protect our entire community. In doing so, we feel these investments will continue to attract new businesses and residents in strengthening Cathedral City.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
We would like to thank the City Council and City Manager for their leadership and overall direction of this budget.
We would also like to thank the many residents and business owners providing input and feedback to not only the City Council, but also City staff throughout the year. This has become a valuable resource we are able to tap into during the budget process. All are to be commended for committing their time to be involved in this very important process.
Finally, we would like to take this opportunity to thank all City staff who participated in developing this budget document. Preparing the budget is a demanding and time-consuming effort for all staff members. This is especially true considering the continued workloads of staff in their respective core areas of responsibility and the budgetary challenges facing the City. “Teamwork” among individuals and departments resulted in this budget document. This same “teamwork” will continue Moving Cathedral City Forward into the future.

BUDGET DEVELOPMENT
CITY BUDGET PROCESS
To achieve time and cost efficiencies over a traditional annual budget, the City of Cathedral City prepares and adopts two one-year budgets. Under this cycle, the second year does not require formal adoption by City Council.
Each year is separate and distinct. Unencumbered funds from the first year do not carry over into the second year.
The City’s 6-month budget preparation cycle began in December as the Finance Division prepared a draft budget of operating expenditures for each of the six departments (City Management, Development Services, Engineering and Public Works, Financial Services, Fire and Police) based on historical data and trends. The Financial Services department distributed the budget calendar, instructions, forms, and budget worksheets to each department in January. Individual departments are then directly responsible for review ing the draft operating budgets and proposing any adjustments. The Development Services D epartment, Engineering and Public Works Department, Fire Department and Police Department coordinate their departmental facilities and vehicle replacement requests and provide to the Financial Services Department. In addition, the Finance staff incorporated the Engineering and Public Works Department capital improvement project requests.
Departments submitted their revised budget worksheets and supplemental data to the Financial Services in February. Based on departmental feedback, the Financial Services compiled the returned data and calculated the total expenditures requested, in addition to the estimated revenues and projected fund balances. The City Manager then held individual budget meetings with the various depa rtment heads. Based on the results of those meetings, the Financial Services updated the preliminary budget workbook. In March, the Financial Services Director and City Management discussed and reviewed the preliminary budget workbook prior to disseminating it to City Council for review. Once distributed, City Council members were asked to provide questions, comments, and recommendations by the end of March. During April, the Financial Services Director reviewed and presented the proposed budget to City Council during two public study sessions – the fi rst session being dedicated to the General Fund and the second to the special revenue funds, proprietary funds, the Capital Improvement Project (CIP) Plan and the Parks Improvement Project (PIP) Plan.
With budget adoption, staff will publish the adopted budget document and integrate t he budgetary data into the City’s accounting system. Financial Services will then submit the adopted budget document to the GFOA budget awards program. The City has received the GFOA budget award for the last eight budget cycles and is strives for a successful 9
th submission.
BALANCED BUDGET
The City of Cathedral City defines a balanced budget as the total of budgeted revenues (including transfers in), to equal budgeted expenditures (including transfers out). and, if required, using fund balance to make up any difference.
BUDGET AMENDMENTS
Supplemental appropriations, when required during the fiscal year, require approval by the City Council. The Financial Services Director is authorized to adjust appropriations between each department or activity provided the total appropriations for each department or activity do not exceed the amounts approved in the budget resolution, or any amending resolutions, for the entire fund. Based on City Council approved actions, adjustments to funds are made on at least a quarterly basis. Transfers of cash or unappropriated fund balance from one fund to another can be made with the Financial Services Director’s approval.
BUDGET DEVELOPMENT
BASIS OF BUDGETING AND ACCOUNTING
The City uses the modified accrual basis of accounti ng in budgeting governmental funds. This means obligations of the City, including outstanding purchase orders, are budgeted as expenditures. Revenues are recognized when they are both measurable and available to fund current expenditures. Estimated payouts during each budget year for compensated absences exceeding the maximum accru ed leave allowable are included in the governmental funds budget. The modified accrual basis of accounting is also used for governmental funds reported in the annual audited financial statements.
The City uses the accrual basis of accounting in budget ing proprietary (internal service) funds and includes depreciation, but excludes capital outlay and debt payments, if any. Revenues are recorded when earned, whether cash is received at the time or not. In similar fashion, expenses are recorded when goods and services have been received, whether cash disbursements are made at the time or not. The accrual basis of accounting is also used for proprietary funds reported in the annual audited financial statements.
At the close of a fiscal year, outstanding operating budget purchase commitments for goods and services will not be carried forward into the next fiscal year. Budgets for the Capital Improvement Project (CIP) Plan and the Parks Improvement Project (PIP) Plan are authorized for the durati on of the project. Therefor e, authorizations for CIP projects and unfulfilled capital improvement purchasing comm itments at the end of a fi scal year are automatically carried forward to the next fiscal year.

STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
Five-Year Strategic Plan
The City’s recently approved Five-Year Strategic Plan is an additional pol icy document guiding and informing the FY 2023/2024 and 2024/2025 Biennial Budget. The Strat egic Plan expands beyond previous goal setting performed by the City since, in addition to annual goals, it also identifies longer range priorities.
The Strategic Plan is an important planning document helping organizations maintain focus on the future in addition to addressing current issues and needs. As Cathedral City continues to grow and the complexities of providing public services continue to expand and evolve, prepar ing and positioning the organization to adapt, change, and improve becomes critically important to continue to create public value for our community.
The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) recommends government entities create strategic plans to provide a long-term perspective for service delivery and budgeting. The importance of strategic planning is positioning the City to adapt and influence the City’s future rather than simply reacting to what the future brings the City.
The City’s Mission, Values, and Vision create the foundation and framewor k for the Strategic Plan since collectively, they articulate our purpose, core beliefs and principles guiding how we serve our community, and our aspirations for the future. They also drive the organizations’ Goals and Objectives which inform work programs and priorities which are funded through this budget document.
STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

PERFORMANCE MEASURES
Performance measures assess the effectiveness and effi ciencies of the City’s departments and divisions. They allow City staff to measure how to better achieve the stra tegic goals the City Council sets in their Annual Goal Planning Session. Through the evaluation and/or outcome of certain functions carried out within the departments, results can be seen and how those results are connected to achieving the City Council’s strategic goals.
Performance measures are now a mandatory criterion under the GFOA Distinguished Budget Presentation Award Program. As such, the City of Cathedral City has included various performance measures in our Budget Document.
City Management in collaboration with the Financial Serv ices Department worked directly with the various departments to identify, evaluate, and provide performance measures based on appropriate measures needed to communicate goals and objectives for near and far-reachi ng future goals. During the analysis stage, department discussions focused around the following 10 GFOA steps for identifying appropriate performance measures:
1. Know your audience. Measures communicate perform ance, but not all measures are appropriate for all audiences. Before identifying measures, think about what your intended audience wants to know.
Department heads, elected officials, and citizens all have different needs.
2. Consult with subject matter experts. Finance sta ff should never identify measures without input and collaboration from subject matter experts and program sta ff in operating departments. Talk to the sta ff members who are involved in performing services to find what would add value.
3. Identify the outcomes. Identify the purpose or goal of the programs and services your government is providing.
4. Identify the service level. Descri be what your government does to produce quality outcomes and think about how services can be performed (timeliness, error free , frequency, superior quality, etc.). Think about how your customers (be they citizens or employees) think about the service level being provided.
5. List factors that can influence outcomes. A variety of factors can influence outcomes. Be clear about which ones (internal or external) could influence the outcome or service level. If necessary, use tools like a factor map to diagram them.
6. Select appropriate measures. Select measures that will help your audience understand the situation. This can be more than one measure and can relate to fact ors that are or are not controlled by government programs.
7. Define your measures. Be explicit about what y ou are measuring and how to collect information and be consistent.
8. Determine the frequency of measurement. Identify how often you will collect and report data. Also, specify who will be responsible for collecting, storing, and sharing data.
9. Consider how you will use data you collect. Think through how the data will be used—for example, who will have access to this information? What decisions or processes does the data support?
10. Evaluate the usefulness of the data. After a set period, evaluate whether the performance measure is useful information. If not, consider tweaking your approach or stop collecting that data in favor of a more useful measure.
Performance measures can be found within each respecti ve departments budget. In upcoming cycles, we will continue to add additional Performance measures as we identify and track new data points to measure the City’s strategic goals.
LONG-RANGE FINANCIAL PLANNING
GENERAL FUND
The City of Cathedral City’s Financial Services Director briefs City Council as to the General Fund’s current fiscal year financial status at least twice/year, based on mid-year (December) and end of year (June) financial data. At the same time, a five-year forecast beyond the current fiscal year is also presented. This allows the City Council to make decisions conducive with the fund balance policy. In addition, the City Council receives a bi-monthly status throughout the fiscal year of actual “cash” revenues received and expenditures made.
To be prepared for any future economic downturns, the City revised its fund balance policy in September 2014. The revised policy states that of the ava ilable fund balance, the City strives to assign a minimum of 33% of budgeted expenditures (including transfers out) for cash flow reserves, economic uncertainties, and budget-related reserves, with a goal of achieving a 50% balance.
The table below shows the current revenues, expenditures, and fund balance projections beyond the current budget periods. As shown, the City will ex ceed its minimum fund balance policy of 33% in FY 2023/2024 through FY 2025/2026. Starting with FY 2026/2027, the City may fall below the 33% minimum Fund Balance level. Current estimates anticipate a 4% growth in FY 2025/2026 re venues and a corresponding 3% growth in FY 2025/2026 expenditures over the next three years and into the future. During the next two budget years, the remaining Federal COVID-19 relief funding will be used to offset lost rev enues and unexpected expenditures. The City expects to close the upcoming gap between expenditures and revenues and will strive to maintain a fund balance minimum of 33%.

LONG-RANGE FINANCIAL PLANNING
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT (CIP) PLAN
The Five-Year Capital Improvement Project (CIP) Plan is another integral part of t he City’s long-range financial planning. The City currently has iden tified 17 current/active projects to be completed in the upcoming biennial budget for FY 2023/2024 and FY 2024/2025, 27 new projects planned to begin during the upcoming five-year plan, and 3 unfunded projects.
The planning process for the CIP Plan begins with the Finance Division gathering data on existing projects, potential funding for new projects, and identifying unfunded projec ts. Subsequently, Finance coordinates with Engineering staff to develop a preliminary plan to be submitted for Engineering review and comment. Meeting(s) and various forms of coordination occur to refine and provide detail in developing and finalizing a draft plan for City Council review and concurrence. A final CIP Plan is then presented with the Proposed Budget, and if there are no changes, will be included in the Final Proposed Budget for City Council approval of the Adopted Budget.
Significant nonrecurring capital expenditures shown in the CIP Plan for the next two-year budget period include the Dream Homes Park ($2,588,533 in FY 2023/2024 and $5,177,106 in FY 2024/2025) which sits on 7.75 acres and includes various leisure activities and walking paths. The completion of HSIP 9 – Varner/Date Palm Drive Safety Improvements ($895,200 in FY 2023/2024) which will provide for pedestrian sa fety improvements at Date Palm Drive and Varner Road, and HSIP 10 – Ramon and Avenida La Paloma will provide pedestrian safety improvements.
The Widening and undergrounding of ut ilities on East Palm Canyon ($80, 000 in FY 2023/2024 and $1,500,000 in FY 2024/2025).
There are no significant operating expenditures expected during the next two-year budget period for capital projects included in the CIP Plan.
.
FUND STRUCTURE
The City of Cathedral City’s accounting system (financial backbone) is maintained on a fund basis, in accordance with governmental accounting standards. Each of the City’s funds is considered a separate accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts recording assets, liab ilities, fund equity, revenues, and expenditures. Funds are established and segregated with the purpose of recordi ng specific programs or attaining certain objectives in accordance with special regulations, re strictions, or limitations. Funds are classified into one of three categories :
governmental (general, special revenue, debt service and capital projects), proprietary (internal service and enterprise), and fiduciary (trust and agency). Each of these categories is described in greater detail in the following sections.
Budgets are legally adopted for the following funds: G eneral Fund (Fund 100), Big League Dreams (Fund 431), certain special revenue funds as identified in the List of Funds, internal service f unds, and private purpose trust funds on a basis consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).
Fund budgets are not adopted for the Public Financing Authority or the debt service funds, which account for bond proceeds and associated annual debt service. Effectiv e budgetary control is alternately achieved through bond indenture provisions. In addition, fund budgets are not initially adopted for capital projects; however, the associated expenditures are identified in the CIP Plan and the PIP Plan for the project lifecycle. Once the capital project is authorized by City Council, it is then budgeted for the dur ation of the project. Although not formally appropriated, planned expenditures in the debt service funds are included in the budget document for informational purposes.
Custodial funds have no equity, assets are equal to liabilities, and do not include revenues and expenditures for general operations of the City. Therefore, budgets are not adopted for these funds.
GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS
Governmental funds are used to account for most, if not all, of a government’s tax-supported activities. The general fund, special revenue funds, capital projects funds and debt service funds are considered governmental funds.
Governmental funds report activities based on near-term inflows and outflows of financial or spendable resources (current financial resources measurement focus) and use the modified accrual basis of accounting.
The GENERAL FUND is the main operating fund of the City and is used to account for all the general revenues of the City not specifically levied or collected in other City funds, and for the expenditures related to the rendering of general services by the City. The General Fund is used to account for all resources not required to be accounted for in another fund.
SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS are used to account for the revenue receiv ed from specific taxes or other specific revenue sources restricted or committed to expenditure for specified purposes other than for debt service or major capital projects.
CAPITAL PROJECTS FUNDS are used to account for, and report fi nancial resources restri cted, committed, or assigned to expenditure for capital outla ys, including the acquisition or constr uction of capital facilities and other capital assets.
DEBT SERVICE FUNDS are used to account for, and report financial resources restricted, committed, or assigned to expenditure for principal and interest.
FUND STRUCTURE
PROPRIETARY (INTERNAL SERVICE) FUNDS
Proprietary funds are used to account for a government’s business-type activities. As such, proprietary funds report activities in a similar means as those of private sector businesses (economic resources measurement focus) and use the same Generally Accepted Accounting Principles as those businesses. Internal service and Enterprise funds are considered proprietary funds.
INTERNAL SERVICE FUNDS are used to report any activity providing goods or services to other funds or departments of the City on a cost-reimbursement basis.
ENTERPRISE FUNDS may be used to report any activity for which a fee is charged to external users for goods or services. Most California cities have one or more enterpri se funds accounting for activities such as an airport, hospital, harbor, etc. Since these types of services were already available in the Coachella Valley (CV) before the City was incorporated, the City of Cathedral City has no such funds. Enterprise fund operations usually provide significant financial assistance to a city’s operations. The lack of this revenue source is one reason why the City faces revenue challenges.
FIDUCIARY FUNDS
Fiduciary funds are used to account for assets held by the City acting in a fiduciary capacity for other entities. Such funds are operated to carry out the specific actions of agreements, ordinances and other governing regulations and cannot be used to support the City’s own programs. Ther e are four types of sub-f unds: pension trust funds; investment trust funds; private-purpos e trust funds; and custodial funds. The City of Cathedral City uses private- purpose trust funds and custodial funds.
PRIVATE-PURPOSE TRUST FUNDS are used to account for and report other trust arrangements under which revenues benefit individuals, private organizations, or other governments. Activity related to the Successor Agency to the Former RDA is reported in these funds.
CUSTODIAL FUNDS are used to account for assets held by the City as an agent for individuals, principal organizations, other governments, and/or funds. The City’s role is limited to such things as collecting and remitting funds for a third party.

GENERAL FUND Fund 100
Description: The General Fund is the primary operating fund of the City of Cathedral City and is used to account for all financial resources, except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
Funding Sources: Revenues are generated from general taxes (property, sales, transactions and use, utility users, transient occupancy, cannabis, and franchise fees), licen ses and permits, fines and forfeits, intergovernmental revenues, use of money and property (interest and rents), other revenues and interfund transfers.
Fund Balance: Fund balance is projected to decrease $2,672,052, or -6.84%, to $36,380,967 as of June 30, 2024 and decrease another $5,824,668, or -1 6.01%, to $30,556,299 as of June 30, 2025. This change in fund balance for the General Fund is primarily due to increased personnel costs, implementing an allocation for California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) unfunded actuarial liability, and continuing the annual allocation for Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) unfunded liability.

GENERAL FUND REVENUES
The City of Cathedral City’s annual revenues are derived from taxes, licenses and permits, charges for services, fines and forfeits, intergovernmental revenue, use of money and property, other miscellaneous revenues and interfund transfers in. Taxes are the largest component of the City’s revenue and represent almost 83% of the total revenue expected to be received in the next two fiscal year s. Sales-related taxes (sales and use tax/transactions and use tax) represent the largest category of taxes re ceived at approximately 39% while property-related taxes account for another 25%.
Assumptions used in projecting revenues for FY 2023/ 2024 and FY 2024/2025 were based on historical and economic trends, and any known activity changes, info rmed/expert judgment, and estimates from the state of California and Riverside County.
SALES AND USE TAX
California law requires not only for taxes be paid on in-state purchases but also for taxes be paid on items purchased out-of-state for use in California. Tax collected by the reta iler here in California is called sales tax, and the retailer is responsible for reporting and paying the tax to t he state via the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA). When an out-o f-state or online retailer doesn’t colle ct the tax for an item delivered to California, the purchaser may owe “use tax,” which is a tax on the use, storage, or consumption of personal property in California. Taxpayers can report and pay their use tax on their California income tax returns; registered sellers report their use tax on their sales and use tax returns.
The current sales and use tax rate for the State of California is 7.25%. For Riverside County, the current sales and use tax rate is 7.75% (the additional .5% is for Measure A). The components are described below:

In November 1993, California voters passed Proposition 172, which permanently extended the one-half cent state sales tax to what was originally approved in 1991. The legislation required that the proceeds provided an additional sales tax be diverted from the state to the cities and counties to fund public safety programs.
California Assembly Bill (AB) 118 established the Comm unity Corrections Grant Prog ram with the purpose of funding various changes to the criminal justice system as required by Chapter 15 of the Statutes of 2011. The bill created the Local Revenue Fund 2011 in the State Treasury. Existing law, enacted by Chapter 15 of the Statutes of 2011, created the community correc tions grant program to assist in implementing the act and creating an appropriation to fund the grant program. The State General Fund previously received 5% of the total sales and use tax rate. Upon passage of Assembly Bill (AB) 118, 1.0625% of the State General Fund allocation was designated to partially fund this corrections program.
In 1988, voters approved Measure A, Riverside County’s half-cent sales tax for transportation. Funds go back to each of three districts: Western Riverside County, the Coachella Valley, and Palo Verde, in proportion to what they contribute. In 2002, Measure A was extended by Rivers ide County voters to continue funding transportation improvements through 2039.
CDTFA administers the sales tax and remits to local governments: 30% for the first month of each quarter, another 30% the following month, and 40% at the end of the quarter. A “clean-up” payment is received in the third month for the previous quarter.
Sales tax represents the City of Cathedral City’s single largest revenue source. Of the nine industry categories, the automotive category (dealers and supplies) generally accounts for roughly 50% of total taxable transactions.
Sales tax revenue has been steadily increasing since the lo w point in FY 2009/2010. Sales tax is projected at $14.75 million for FY 2023/2024 and $15.25 million for FY 2024/2025. This represents an increase of $783,898, or
5.61% from FY 2022/2023 year-end estimates to FY 2023/2024 projections and an additional increase of $500,000, or 3.39%, to FY 2024/2025 projections. Sales and use taxes account for 22.01% and 23.61% of total General Fund tax revenues projected for FY 2023/2024 and FY 2024/2025, respectively.

TRANSACTIONS AND USE TAX
In June 2010, Cathedral City voters passed Measure H, which established 1% transactions and use tax on all retailers doing business within the City for five years from the date it first took effect. In June 2014, Cathedral City voters passed Measure B, which removed the five-yea r sunset and approved the cont inuation of the tax until repealed by the voters.
The tax proceeds are deposited in the City’s general fund to be used for general governmental purposes, such as City operations, police and fire services, street repairs, parks, emergency response and paramedic services, capital projects, and other essential services.
It is estimated the transactions and use tax revenues will be $9.47 millio n in FY 2022/2023. Projections for FY 2023/2024 and FY 2024/2025 are $10.0 million and $10.16 million, respectively.

PROPERTY TAX
A property tax of 1% is imposed on the value of real property (land and permanently attached improvements such as buildings) and tangible personal property (movable property) located within the state. In 1986, California voters passed a constitutional amendment (Article XIIIA of the State Constitution), which provided an exception to the 1% limitation. Local governments and school districts may increase the percentage above 1% to finance the issuance of general obligation bonds. However, a local election must be held in which the voters approve the bond issuance by a two-thirds majority.
The increase in the assessed valuation of property that has not changed ownership is limited by the 1978 voter- approved Proposition 13 allowing the Calif ornia Consumer Price Index not to exceed a maximum of 2% per year.
Property that has changed ownership, has been substantia lly altered, newly construc ted, state assessed, or personal property is assessed at the full market value in the first year and is subject to the 2% maximum in subsequent years.
The City of Cathedral City participates in the Teeter Plan, an alternative method for property tax apportionment without regard for delinquencies. Under the Teeter Plan, the City’s current secured property tax apportionment is increased by the taxes that were typically delinquent. In ex change, the City gave up any claim to future penalties and interest associated with those delinquencies. In 2005, the County of Riverside removed supplemental property taxes from the Teeter Plan. The supplemental taxes ar e now recorded as revenue when received, as are any associated penalties and interest on delinquencies related to those taxes. The secured property tax roll remains on the Teeter Plan. Taxes are remitted to the City by the County of Riversi de as follows: 30% Advance (December); Collection No. 1 (January); 10% Advance (April); Collection No. 2 (May); and Collection No. 3 (July).
The City also receives property taxes by way of the moto r vehicle license fee (VLF), or automobile in-lieu tax. The VLF was permanently reduced from 2% to 0.65% by the st ate legislature in 2004. Monies lost from this rate reduction have been replaced by property taxes on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Since FY 2005, each local government’s property tax in lieu of VLF has increased annually based on the growth in the gross assessed valuation in that jurisdiction.

From FY 2021/2022 to FY 2022/2023, Cathedral City net assessed taxable property values increased $559 million, or 10.4%. The median home selling price has increased from the low of $150,000 in February 2011 to $495,000 in February 2023, which has ex ceeded the median home selling price of $385,500 in 2006. Supplemental property taxes are calculated based on the difference between the current value of a property and the resale value of the property. Typically, property values increase as a property is resold. There has been significant recovery in home resale values and supplemental property tax revenue has more than recovered to its previous level.
Many residents believe property tax fully funds local government costs. The reality is the City of Cathedral City only receives approximately 16 cents out of every property tax dollar paid by City residents. As shown below, this amount is less than that received by the Palm Springs Unifi ed School District (30.57 cents) and Riverside County (24.86 cents).
Revenues from property taxes, including the additional property taxes resulting from the property tax in lieu of VLF discussed previously, are projected at $11.49 million for FY 2023/2024 and $12.07 million for FY 2024/2025. This represents a decrease of (618,979) or -5.11% from FY 2022/2023 year-end estimates to FY 2023/2024 projections and an increase of $574,938, or 5.00%, to FY 2024/202 5 projections. Property taxes account for 17.17% and
18.70% of total General Fund tax revenues projected for FY 2023/2024 and FY 2024/2025, respectively.

UTILITY USERS’ TAX
The citizens of Cathedral City voted in favor of a Utility Users’ Tax (UUT) in November 2008, and it became effective in April 2009. The City of Cathedral City imposes a 3% rate on the use of telecommunications, cable (video), electricity (including cogenerated), gas, and solid waste. Note – the State of California imposes 2.5%, not 3%, on prepaid wireless telecommunications.
Southern California Edison is the predominant energy pr ovider and accounts for approximately 56% of the UUT received. UUT is received monthly from the various provider s. UUT revenues are projected to remain stable over the next budget cycle. Therefore, revenues are projected at $3.7 million for FY 2023/2024 and $3.9 million for FY 2024/2025. This represents stable growth from FY 2022/2023 year-end estimates to FY 2023/2024 projections and slight increase in FY 2024/2025. UUT accounts for 5.57% and 6.12% of total General Fund tax revenues projected for FY 2023/2024 and FY 2024/2025.

TRANSIENT OCCUPANCY TAX/TIMESHARE UNIT FEES
Transient occupancy tax (TOT) is imposed on persons stayin g 30 days or less in a hotel within the City limits.
Effective January 1, 2007, the TOT rate was increased to 12% of the rent charged by the operator. Cathedral City receives most of its TOT from the six primary hotels currently located within the City. The City also receives a significant minority from short-term va cation rentals (STVRs). In addition, the City receives revenues from in-lieu developer fees (timeshare properties), TOT from RV parks, and non-owner rentals of vacant timeshares.
The City’s TOT recovered from the economic recessi on 14 years ago. With the CO VID-19 pandemic, the City understandably experienced a decrease of (853,179) during FY 2019/2020 and a slight increase of $291,883 in FY 2020/2021. As the state re-opened after the height of the pandemic, there was a significant increase to $5.31 million in FY 2021/2022. With the phase out of residential STVRs in open neighborhoods, we anticipate a modest decrease in future TOT revenues with FY 2023/2024 and FY 2024/2025 projections forecasted to be $4.86 million and $4.92 million, respectively.

CANNABIS TAX
On November 4, 2014, the Cathedral City voters appr oved Measure N, which approved a new tax on cannabis businesses operating under California’s medical marijuana laws. The new tax allows for up to 15% (currently 10% on past due accounts, 5% for customers current in tax paym ents) tax on each dollar of gross receipts received by a dispensary. On November 8, 2016, Measure P was approv ed allowing the City to impose up to $25 per square foot (currently $15 on past due accounts, $10 for customers current in tax payments) on cannabis cultivation space and up to a $1 per gram/unit (currently ranging from $.05/gram to $.40/gram) ba sed on the type/quality of manufactured cannabis concentrate and for cannabis-infused products.
Based on the volume of applicants for licenses to operate dispensaries, cultivation spaces and manufacturing of cannabis products, and the decrease in taxes rates, and we expect to see revenues less than current projection in FY 2022/2023. FY 2021/2022 Cannabis Tax revenues were $4,508,124 and are projected to be more than $3,450,000 at the end of FY 2022/2023. Currently, there are 12 dispensaries, 26 cultivators, and 14 manufacturers in operation. As a result, Cannabis Tax revenue is projected maintain to $4.0 million in both FY 2023/2024 and FY 2024/2025. These taxes represent approximately 5.97% and 6.19% of total General Fund revenues for FY 2023/2024 and FY 2024/2025, respectively.

FRANCHISE FEES
Overall franchise fees have generally remained stable. From FY 2014/2015 to FY 2020/2021, franchise fees were at an average of $2,135,057. These fees represent approximately 4.24% and 4.57% of total General Fund revenues for FY 2023/2024 and FY 2024/2025, respectively. Revenues from franchise fees are projected at $2.84 million for FY 2023/2024 and $2.95 million for FY 2024/2025.
Utilities. The City grants a franchise to utility companies for t he use of City streets and ri ghts-of-way. The Public Utility Commission (PUC) limited electric and gas franchise fees to 2% and cabl e franchise fees to 5% of gross receipts. Any growth in franchise revenues would be a result of utility rate increases imposed by the electric, gas, and cable companies. Currently, the City collects electric franchise fees from Southern California Edison and gas franchise fees from The Gas Company at the rate of 2% of gross receipts arising from use, operation or possession of the franchise, and cable franchise fees from Time Warner Cable, Inc. at the rate of 5% of gross receipts. The electric and gas franchise fees are paid annually while the cable franchise fees are paid on a quarterly basis.
Franchise fees from utilities account for approximately 55% of total franchise fees.
Trash. The City also charges a solid waste hauler’s franchise fee. The current franchise agreement is with Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc. The current franchise rate is 12% of gross receipts payable monthly to the City and 12% of gross receipts levied/paid semi-annual ly on a property tax bill. Franchise f ees from trash generally account for approximately 40% of total franchise fees.
Tow. In January 2014, the City awarded towing contracts to Southwest Towing, Inc. and Mohica Towing, Inc. with the purpose of satisfying the City’s ongoing towing needs. The initial agreement was for a 3-year period, with two additional 3-year extensions. As of December 2022, the City will have completed its second 3-year extension and is currently renegotiating these towing contract. Franch ise fees, which are paid monthly, represent the amount necessary to reimburse the City for its actual and reasonable costs associated with the towing program.

CHARGES FOR SERVICES
The City of Cathedral City has the ge neral authority to impose fees or charges for services. Charges for services are distinguished from taxes in two principal ways: (1) the amount of the fee may not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of providing the servic e or facility for which the fee is charged; and (2) th e service or facility for which the fee is charged bears a relationship to the person or entity paying the fee.
The City’s charges for services include: plan check fees and other services provided by the Planning, Building, and Engineering Divisions related to zoning and conditional use permits; fingerprinting, false alarms, police reports, jail booking fees, police dispatch and police department reimbursements for the Police Department; fire inspection, fire plan checks, alarm response, paramedic response, smoke alarm inspection fees, abatement code enforcement fees, and fire department reimbursements for the Fire Department; and administrative support and other labor reimbursements.
In October of 2020, the City entered into a contract with a local vendor to complete a Citywide Comprehensive Cost Allocation Plan and User Fee Study. It has been over fifteen years since the last Fee Study was completed. became effective in December 2021.
Revenues from charges for servic es are projected at $4.71 million fo r FY 2023/2024 and $4.73 million for FY 2024/2025. This represents an increase of $508,243, or 10.77% from FY 2022/2023 year-end estimates to FY 2023/2024 projections and an increase of $528,243, or 12.55 %, to FY 2024/2025 projections. The fluctuations in total revenues from year to year are generally related to the level of reimbursements received (e.g., administrative support, other labor, contracts for dispatch services and law enforcement personnel with other municipalities, etc.).

LICENSES AND PERMITS
Licenses and permits generate revenue from a wide variety of activity, ranging from business, cannabis, and animal licenses, to building-related, engineering and fire permi ts. The most significant revenue sources are business licenses and construction permits. These two sources gene rally account for 50% of annual revenues from license and permit activities.
Business licenses are required for any establishment conduct ing business within the City limits. License fees are based on gross sales and the type of business. License fees have grown over the past few years to $650,000, comprised of $550,000 in license fees and $100,000 in processing fees. Conservatively, we are projecting the same revenue stream for both FY 2023/2024 and FY 2024/2025.
Construction permits are issued by the City and are required for various types of construction within the City limits and are driven by the local economy. Construction per mit revenues have increased by $212,114 between FY 2021/2022 and FY 2022/2023 estimated projections. Based on current and proposed development projects, revenues have been projected to increase to $1,050,000 for both FY 2023/2024 and FY 2024/2025.

USE OF MONEY AND PROPERTY
Use of money and property consists of interest revenue and rental revenue generated from City-owned facilities.
Cash balances are invested by the City Treasurer in accordance with the City’s investment policy, providing for the maximum security of principal, and meeting the City’s daily cash flow needs, while providing the best investment return. All investments are made in accordance with the California Government Code and the City investment policy, which is more restrictive than state law. The projection of a lower interest revenue amount is based on relatively low interest rates and the yearend market valuation of the City’s investments.
Use of money and property revenues declined sharply in FY 2021/2022. The majority of the City’s investments are held in the California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF). The interest rate on LAIF funds is currently at 2.831% in March 2023. As a result of the market volatility since the pandemic and the yearend market valuation, revenues from the use of money and property (interest and rental revenue), have been projected conservatively at $300,000 for FY 2023/2024 and $350,000 for FY 2024/2025.

66 ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
According to the California Association for Local Economic Development (CALED), economic development is the, “…concerted effort to influence the di rection of private sector investment toward opportunities that can lead to sustained economic growth”. The Ca thedral City (City) Economic Development Department strategically and systematically works to attract, retain, and expand busines ses. The goal is to generate additional wealth and to build both a resilient and robust local economy. As wealth increases so does the quality of life for both the individual and the community. As an economy bec omes more diverse and robust, the economy beco mes more resilient. A resilient economy is better able to withstand and recover from economic downturns.
In simple terms, Economic Development activities fall into three categories:
Strategic economic development planning and execution is demanding and complex. Long-term in nature, strategic economic development must quickly adapt to changing markets, emerging technologies and capitalize on unforeseen opportunities. Based upon a TOWS analysis (evaluating external threats and opportunities and the City’s weaknesses, and strengths), the economic developm ent strategic plan identifies actions to be taken (i) immediately, (ii) implemented over a short to medium term timeframe or (iii) pursued as long-term goals. The result will be the creation of a diverse, robust, and resilient economy now and in the future.

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
ACCOMPLISHMENTS
No single event has impacted Cathedral City or the Co achella Valley as profoundly as the COVID-19 pandemic.
The various restrictions affecting non-essential employment and travel drove Coachella Valley unemployment rates an estimated 50% above the Great Depression’s peak unem ployment rate. According to the Coachella Valley Economic Partnership’s “Employment Impact of COVID-19” report published in May 2020, occupations hardest hit were sales and sales related; food preparation and serving related; and personal care and service. Job losses in these occupations disproportionately affected Cathedral City residents.
Thankfully, the Cathedral City Council, Economic Development Department, and City residents rallied around the Cathedral City-based businesses most effected by the restrictions. Creative solutions drove dearly needed business revenue. One particularly proactive solution included implementing the Great Plates Delivered project.
Great Plates Delivered was a federal (75%), state (18.75%), and local jurisdiction (6.25%) funded program designed to enabled local businesses an opportunity to earn $66 per person per day by providing three nutritious meals each day to home-bound individuals 65 and older. Unfortunately, when the program was first launched, there was little program participation. Recognizing the tremendous revenue potential for local businesses and the opportunity to provide needed nutrition to some of our community’s most vulnerable senior citizen through at-home contact-less food delivery, the Economic Development Department (con sisting of the Director and one volunteer) began to proactively recruit eligible clients. This Economic Develo pment team walked eligible communities, posted flyers, worked with community non-profits and religious organizations, and contacted property management companies to increase resident participation. The Economic Developmen t team also recruited Cathedral City restaurants to participate in the program.
By the end of the program, approximately 250 Cathedral City residents were participating in the program, generating just under $500,000 of revenue to local businesses each month. This program lasted for just under one year and is believed to have brought an estimated $3,000,000 to $5,000,000 of revenue to local businesses while providing upwards of an estimated 7,500 nutritious meals to at-ri sk seniors. The Economic Development Department team also distributed over 15,000 lbs. of face masks and hand sanitizer to residents and businesses; created and implemented a Small Business Assistance grant program made possible by the Cathedral City City Council with funds from the 2020 CARES Act; and educated and supported businesses applying for a variety of economic injury disaster loans and grant programs.
Beyond responding to COVID-19 related challenges, the Economic Development Department:
Lead the successful initiative to bring the $41M Colle ge of the Desert Roadrunner Motors campus back to the Cathedral City automotive center,
Facilitated the opening of the Amazon Commercial H ub in the previously 16-y ear vacant Sam’s Club building,
Created and implemented the North City Economic Development Resolution which is intended to open the door to previously elusive revenue and job-generating development, Supported the entitlement and tenant attraction to the commercial portion of the 13.5 acres located on the southwest corner of Date Palm Drive and East Palm Canyon, Conducted a thorough mixed-methods analysis of the Cathedral City cannabis business cluster which lead to the lowering of key tax rates which are intended to improve the health and competitiveness of this industry cluster,
Revitalized and reengaged the Cathedral City Chamber of Commerce, Oversaw the completion and implementation of the City’s first user fee study and cost allocation plan in 16 years,
Worked with the owners of the 350,000 square foot cannabis cultivation facility located at 69-375 Ramon Road to finish construction and get closer to beginning to cultivate,

Worked to identify qualified developers to build out vacant parcels within the Downtown, Worked to support and strengthen the Ci ty’s tourism and hospitality sector, Worked to create the City’s first comprehensive Development Services guide, Facilitated the completion of multiple sizable Public Art Commission projects (e.g., Bringas Bridge, Kinetic Art, etc.,), and

PERFORMANCE MEASURES
New Performance Measures for FY 2023/24:
The following Engineering key performance measure (KPMs) will be used to monitor the efficiency of projects.
These KPMs will be used to determine how well Engineering St aff identify and resolve specific issues within the process and to keep projects and Staff on schedule and assign tasks based on project needs. Project timeline: This measure will monitor a pr oject based on established start dates and deadlines, to identify specific challenges or obstacles that could affect the timeline of the project. Considering that every timeline looks different depending on the project type, th is measurement will assist Staff to strategize solutions to prevent or minimize project delays.
Project budget: The Project Budget indicator (PBI) will be calculated after a project completion to determine efficiency in terms of engineering costs. The PBI w ill compare the budgeted cost and the actual cost to determine a value. Any value greater than one indicates the team completed the project under budget. Plan checking cycle time: This measure will show how long it takes from the first review to issue the appropriate permit or plan approval. Achieving a fifteen (15) days Plan Ch eck review cycle is the goal for the department.

EMERGENCY SERVICES
The Fire Emergency Services (Suppression and Paramedic) Division is designed to reduce injuries, deaths, reduce environmental damage, and property losses due to medical emergencies, fires, hazardous materials incidents, and physical and natural disasters, and provide advanced life support and emergency transport services. There are four main components to this program:
Emergency Service
Non-Emergency Service
Patient Assessment
Patient Treatment
Emergency Transportation Service
Fire safety personnel perform public education prog rams, company fire prevention inspections, and cause and origin investigations, and emergency medical services. In addition to emergency responses, fire personnel provide non-emergency community service assistance. The firefighters also manage secondary programs to include ladder testing, pump testing, hose testing, fleet maintenance, Emergency Medical Service (EMS) supply ordering, fire pre- planning, Community Emergency Response Training (CERT) training, Fire Department Training, Juvenile Fire Setting program, EMS continuing education, radio commu nications, promotional testing, Quality Assurance program, small tools and motors maintenance, medica l lock box program, Breathing Apparatus Maintenance Program, and other miscellaneous tasks as needs arise.
The Cathedral City Fire Department staffs three fire department ambulances, with two dual role Firefighter/Paramedics and/or Ambulance Operator EMT’s on each unit, responding to all requests for medical assistance. Dual Role Firefighter/Paramedics are specia lly trained to provide intravenous drug therapy, monitor heart rhythms, and stabilize patients prior to transportation by the city ambulance to a hospital.
Paramedic personnel, because of their dual roles, pe rform firefighter duties as well. In addition to the Firefighter/Paramedic staffed ambulances, fire companies are staffed with paramedic personnel creating a layered response system which provides advanced life support services to the community.

EMERGENCY SERVICES
ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Fire Emergency Service accomplishments include:
Fire units responded to 6,784 calls for service in 2021 and 7,311 emergency incidents in 2022. The incidents included fire alarms, emergency medical, fires, hazards, and public services requests. EMS calls account for approximately 75% of all 9-1-1 responses.
Responding to 5,577 emergency medical service incidents in 2022 which was up 7.5% from 2021 with 5,190 emergency medical incidents.
Three Type I ambulances (box-mounted on truck-st yle chassis) have been purchased, with two being placed into service in October of 2022. Medic 2 was placed in-service, full-time, on March 4, 2023. Medic 2 is stationed out of Fire Station 2, providing a mu ch-needed ambulance to the center of Cathedral City.
Medic 2 will enable us to provide an ALS transport unit on scene much faster to emergency incidents in the center of Cathedral City. These new ambulances ar e replacing an aging fleet to ensure there is no interruption to patient care and transport.
All three new ambulances have been outfitted with Striker Power Load systems. The power load system hydraulically loads the patient and gurney into ou r ambulances automatically, preventing the need for personnel to lift the gurney. When paired with our Stryker Power Pro Cots, the amount of times personnel will need to perform heavy lifts on EMS incidents has significantly been reduced. Cardiac arrest management has been a priority of our department, with High Performance CPR (HP CPR) being brought into the department at the end of 2019, with an emphasis on training and reviews of all cardiac arrest management occurring towards the latte r part of 2021, once the COVID-19 restrictions loosened. The goal in cardiac arrest management is to obtain a return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), where the patient’s heart begins to beat on its own and provide perfusion to the rest of the body. We have experienced a significant rise in patients’ experiencing ROSC to coincide with our ability to conduct training and reviews.
o In 2020, we encountered 48 patients in cardiac arre st and were able to obtain ROSC in 8 of these patients (16.7%).
o In 2021, we encountered 40 patients in cardiac arre st and were able to obtain ROSC in 7 of these patients (17.5%).
o In 2022, after restarting our training programs du e to the loosening of COVID-19 restrictions, we encountered 39 patients in cardiac ar rest and were able to obtain ROSC in 12 of these patients (30.8%)
Purchased and trained personnel on the use of six new video enhanced laryngoscopes to aid in more precise and successful intubation of patients.
In 2021 and half of 2022, the department utilized Active 9- 1-1 software for improved fire personnel alerting and routing. The department implemented the G2 Alerti ng System for 9-1-1 responses in the last half of 2022. The G2 Alerting System installation includes heart-saver tones and encoded light systems in all three fire stations.
The department increased firefighter safety in terms of reduced exposure to bloodborne pathogens with increased decontamination. Sanitation stations remain installed at all fire stations. Created virtual opportunities for the public to interact with the fire department. Replaced two aging VHF repeaters that coincid ed with the police department replacements.
EMERGENCY SERVICES
Delivered three CERT programs; one teen session and two adult sessions. The department replaced an aging fire reporting system (Firehouse Software) with Imagetrend RMS. The department implemented a new fire inspection platform as an enhancement to our fire and EMS reporting software.
Working with the police and dispatch departments, the fire department impl emented a new CAD system (Mark43). Ultimately, the new system was replaced with an updated version of Alliance. Placed a 2022 Chevy Tahoe in service as a command vehicle. Placed a 2020 Ford F-250 in service as a fire prevention vehicle. Took possession of a 1999 International water tender that was donated by the Palm Springs Fire Department. The unit was placed in service just a few months after receipt. Took delivery of 45 new SCBA’s.

AMBULANCE SERVICES
The City’s Ambulance (Paramedic) Services Program provides advanced life support and emergency ambulance
The Cathedral City Fire Department has adopted a new staffi ng model recently to increase overall staffing, place an additional ambulance in-service, and hopefully increase firefighter staffing on our suppression apparatus.
Previously, the Cathedral City Fire Department staff ed two fire department ambulances, with two dual role Firefighter/Paramedics on each unit, responding to all requests for medical assistance. Our new staffing model has one dual role Firefighter/Paramedic partnered with a single role Ambulance Operator/EMT.
Dual Role Firefighter/Paramedics are specially trained to provide advanced life support (ALS) to patients during emergency incidents. Advanced life support patient care includes pharmacology, cardiology, bandaging and splinting of traumatic injuries, and advanced airway management to stabilize patients during transport to the hospital by the city ambulances. Paramedic personnel, because of their dual roles, perform firefighter and other all hazard duties as well. In addition to the Firefighter/Paramedic staffed ambulances, fire companies are staffed with paramedic personnel creating a layered response system wh ich provides advanced life support services to the community.
Single role Ambulance Operator/EMTs are trained to provide basic life support (BLS) to patients during emergency incidents. Basic life support patient care includes basic pharmacology, basic airway management, and bandaging and splinting of traumatic injuries while on scene of emergency incidents. Ambulance Operator/EMTs operate the ambulance during transport to a hospital while a Firefighter/Paramedic partner provides patient care in the patient compartment of the ambulance.
ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Paramedic Services accomplishments include:
Responding to 5,577 emergency medical service incidents in 2022 which was up 7.5% from 2021 with 5,190 emergency medical incidents.
Three Type I, box mounted on truck style chassis, am bulances have been purchased, with two being placed into service in October of 2022, and the third to be placed into service in March of 2023. These new ambulances are replacing an aging fleet to ensure there is no interruption to patient care and transport. Medic 2 was placed in-service, full-time, on March 4, 2023.

BIG LEAGUE DREAMS FUND Fund 431
Description: The Big League Dreams Fund was established to account for the loan from bond funds to construct Big League Dreams, a sports park within the city. Alt hough the loan activity related to Big League Dreams is accounted for in a separate fund, it does not meet the definition of a debt service fund per Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 54, Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions. With the implementation of GASB Statement No. 54, this fund has been considered a sub-fund of the General Fund and has been reported as such since 2008.
Funding Sources: Revenues are generated from interest earnings and rents (use of money and property).
Fund Balance: Fund balance is projected to decrease $382,49 3, or -14.9%, to $2,180,133 as of June 30, 2024 and decrease $379,999, or -17.4%, to $1,800,134 as of June 30, 2025. The decrease in fund balance is due to a transfer out budgeted for the fund in FY 2023/2024 and FY 2024/2025 but no corresponding transfer planned for FY 2023/2024 and FY 2024/2025.

AIR QUALITY IMPRO VEMENT FUND Fund 242
Description: The Air Quality Improvement Fund was established to account for costs related to air pollution reduction.
Funding Sources: Revenues are generated from vehicle registration surcharges allocated to Cathedral City by South Coast Air Quality Management Dist rict (SCAQMD) (intergovernmental revenue) and interest earnings (use of money and property).
In September 1990, Assembly Bill (AB) 2766, Motor Vehicle Subvention Program, was signed into law authorizing a $2 motor vehicle registration surcharge, with a subsequent increase to $4 in 1992. Section 44223 of the Health & Safety Code, enacted by AB 2766, specifies this fee be used “solely to reduce air pollution from motor vehicles and for related planning, monitoring, enforcement, and techni cal studies necessary for the implementation of the California Clean Air Act of 1998.”
Cathedral City receives 25% of each vehicle registration dollar to implement projects reducing mobile source emissions. SCAQMD distributes these dollars quarterl y to South Coast cities and counties based upon their prorated share of population.
Fund Balance: Fund balance is projected to decrease $70,000, or -25.5%, to $204,849 as of June 30, 2024 and increase $10,000, or 4.9%, to $214,849 as of June 30, 2025.

SOLID WASTE FUND Fund 246
Description: The Solid Waste Fund was established to account for costs related to programs initiating recycling efforts throughout the City.
Funding Sources: Revenues are generated from monies received under Assembly Bill (AB) 939, Integrated Waste Management Act (charges for services) and interest earnings (use of money and property).
Fund Balance: Fund balance is projected to decrease $353,20 7, or -10.9%, to $2,874,651 as of June 30, 2024 and decrease another $363,460, or -12.6%, to $2,511,191 as of June 30, 2025. This fund balance can be used to fund projects in future years.
The Public Works Solid Waste Division manages waste and other environmental initiatives for the City. Waste collection is provided by Burrtec Waste and Recycling Services.
The Solid Waste division is responsible for ensuring that the City complies with the requirements of The California Integrated Waste Management Act (AB 939) and the Californi a Short-Lived Climate Pollutant Reduction Strategy (SB 1383) which both have targets of reducing disposal of organic waste in landfills and reducing greenhouse gas production. AB 939 requires that all California jurisdictions prepare a SRRE (Source Reduction Recycling Element) report identifying how they divert 50% of their jurisdiction’s waste stream from landfill disposal each year. The penalty for not diverting 50% each year is a $10,000/day fine until the diversion goal is obtained. According to the requirements of Cathedral City’s SRRE, the following components need to be implemented to reach the 50% diversion goal for each year:

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT (CIP) PLAN - DESCRIPTIONS
The City’s Five-Year Capital Improvement Project (CIP) Plan is submitted to the City Council for review. The projects have been prioritized by those being planned for a given fi scal year. Projects included in the CIP budget are generally those with costs exceeding $50,000, lasting more than three months, and/or involving construction.
Capital projects are long-term improvement and maintenan ce programs designed to increase the City’s assets (physical systems and/or facilities) and preserve those already in place. The programs are broad, and can include land and building acquisitions, street and sidewalk rehabilitation, blow sand mitigation, interchange improvements, traffic signalization, sewer construction and park improvements and/or major renovations.
This document includes both capital improvement and c apital maintenance projects. Capital improvements boost economic development by attracting new businesses and new customers, which bring an increased vitality to the City. Because they are easily identified and are location sp ecific, capital improvements are often the most visible municipal activities.
Conversely, capital maintenance is a city service comm only taken for granted. Most users do not recognize the deterioration of a facility or roadway until significant damage has been done. This makes capital maintenance easy to postpone (deferred) when budgets are tight and demands for more visible City programs and services are high.
Delays in maintenance create greater costs in future y ears because expensive reconstruction or replacement of assets must be completed rather than the less expensive preservation efforts.
Projects increasing the number of facilities or expanding the existing facilities can impact ongoing operating costs for the City. Any operating impacts from projects expect ed to be completed prior to the start of or during FY 2023/2024 and FY 2024/2025 have been included in the operating budget, e.g., a new park. Most capital projects funded in FY 2023/2024 and FY 2024/2025 do not add to the cost of operations. Those projects are major replacements or maintenance projects for existing facilities or infrastructure.
There are no significant operating expenditures expected during the next two-year period for capital projects included in the Five-Year Capital Improvement Project (CIP) Plan.
The Five-Year Capital Improvement Project (CIP) Plan detail and the budget summary by fund for current and new projects are included on the pages following these project descriptions and funding sources.

COMMUNITY HISTORY AND PROFILE
HISTORY
The Cahuilla Indians, the original inhabitants of the Cathedral City area and the area now known as the Coachella Valley, have lived throughout the area for over two th ousand years. Members of the Shoshone tribe, the Cahuilla Indians were industrious farmers, hunting local wildlife like deer and sheep when necessary to fulfill tribal needs. In 1876, the Agua Caliente Band, descendants of the Cahuilla tribe, establishe d a 52,000-acre reservation, which encompasses 28% of the Cathedral City area.
The first Spaniards were thought to appear in the area in 1772, with the first settlers planting roots in approximately 1821. In 1850, Colonel Henry Washingt on of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers discovered the area’s canyons resembled the interior of a grand cathedral and he named this canyon of majestic architecture Cathedral Canyon.
In 1925, developers had the same impression, naming the area’s first subdivision Cathedral City.
PROFILE
The City of Cathedral City, incorporated in 1981, is a bus iness and resort community located in the heart of the Coachella Valley in eastern Riverside County, located approximately 110 miles east of Los Angeles and 125 miles northeast of San Diego. Bordered by Palm Springs to t he west and Rancho Mirage to the east, it is the second largest city in the Valley, with a permanent population of more than 51,000. With the annexation of land north of the city completed in 2014, the City currently occupies a land area of approximately 23 square miles at an elevation of 325 feet above sea level and boasts an ideal climate of 350 sunny days a year, clean air, scenic beauty and unlimited leisure activities, housing options and business opportunities. In February 2011, US News & World Report named the City of Cathedral City as one of the “10 Bargain Retirement Spots in America”.
From the original inhabitants, the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians, Cathedral City has become a home of diversity in ethnicity, income, and lifestyle. White-collar and blue-collar workers, professionals and retirees are all part of a population working and living together in a communi ty striving for an enjoyable, prosperous, and healthy lifestyle.
The City transitioned from a general law city to a c harter city operating under the council-manager form of government. With the November 2018 elections, the governing body consists of five Council members with a rotating mayor each year. In addition, the 2018 elections brought districting to the City wi th five sections (wards) comprised of equivalent residential populations. The City Council is elected on a nonpartisan basis with Council members serving four-year staggered terms – three Council members elected in one two-year cycle, e.g., 2022, for Districts 3, 4 and 5. Alternately, two Council members elected in the next two-year cycle, e.g., 2024, for Districts 1 and 2. Among other things, the City Council is responsible for passing ordinances, adopting the budget, appointing committees, and hiring both the City Manager and City Attorney. The City Manager is responsible for carrying out the policies, resolutions, and ordinances of the City Council, overseeing the day-to-day operations of the City, and appointing the various department heads.
COMMUNITY HISTORY AND PROFILE
The city’s centerpiece, the 70-acre Downtown Core and
adjacent Pickfair Promenade, has become a dining, and
entertainment destination for Cathedral City and neighboring Coachella Valley residents and visitors. This area expanded in recent years with the addition of the Cathedral City Community Amphitheater and the Agua Caliente Casino. In addition, there is a 14-plex movie theatre at the east end of Avenida Lalo Guerrero and the Coachella Valley Repertory (CVRep) 208-seat playhouse (live theatre) at the west end. In addition to the theaters and restaurants, the new Cathedral City Community Amphitheater is host to various weekend events throughout the season. The City has four signature events: Hot Air Balloon Festival, SnowFest, Taste of Jalisco, and Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) Days which can also be hosted on the Festival Lawn and Town Square directly in front of City Hall.
For those whose tastes are on the artistic side, Cathedral City is Where Art Lives. The city has a growing collection of public art on display in various parks and medians throughout the city. Our flourishing art collection is made possible through public art funds and private donations collected through commercial development fees placed into the public arts fund and cannot be used for any other purpose. As a result, no City General Fund dollars are used for public arts.
Much of the art can be viewed if one strolls around the Civic Center complex and Town Square. Various
photographs and paintings are on display in the Civic
Center offices. More than 20 sculptures are placed
throughout the City and Town Square, including the
centerpiece – Fountain of Life, a uniquely designed,
award-winning stone sculpture in the Downtown’s Town Square. Bronze statues of film star George Montgomery and musicians Budd y Rogers and Lalo Guerrero are also located in our Town Square. There are nine (9) different steel surfaced sculptures by Simi Dabah located throughout the City. These sculptures have been left in natural unfinished state and allowed to rust to a warm patina.
The city boasts numerous attractions for visitors and resid ents alike.

FINANCIAL POLICIES
INVESTMENT POLICY
It is the policy of the City of Cathedr al City to invest public funds in a manner which will provide the maximum security with best investment return, while meeting the da ily cash flow demands of the City and conforming to all state and local statutes governing the investment of public funds.
In order of priority, the primary objectives of the City’s investment activities shall be:
1. Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the investment program. Investments shall be undertaken in a manner seeking to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. The objective will be to mitigate credit risk (the risk of loss due to failure of the financial institution, broker/dealer default, or erosion of market value) and interest rate risk (the risk the market value of securities in the portfolio will fall due to changes in general interest rates). To attain this objective, the City will diversify its investments by investing funds among a variety of securities offering independent returns and financial institutions.
2. Liquidity is the second most important objective of the investment program. The investment portfolio shall remain sufficiently liquid to enable the City to m eet all operating and capital requirements that may be reasonably anticipated. Prior to investing City funds, the City Treasurer shall meet with Financial Services Department staff to understand the City’s project ed cash needs for day-to-day operations and ongoing capital improvement projects. Using this information, the City Treasurer can then determine the appropriate length of time for the investment.
3. Yield or rate of return shall be designed with the objecti ve of attaining a market rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles considering the investment risk constraints and liquidity needs. Market rate of return is defined as the average return on the one-year U.S. Treasury Bill. Whenever possible, and in a manner consistent with the more important objectives of safety of principal and liquidity, a yield higher than the market rate of return shall be sought.
The standard of care to be applied shall be the “prudent person,” which states:
Investments shall be made with judgment and care, under circumstances then prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion, and intelligence exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for invest ment, considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income to be derived.
Officers and employees acting in accordance with the in vestment policy and exercising due diligence shall be relieved of personal responsibility for an individual security’s credit risk or market price changes, provided deviations from expectations are reported in a timely fashion and appropriate action is taken to control adverse developments.
Officers and employees involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with the proper execution and management of the in vestment program, or that could impair their ability to make impartial decisions.
Authority to manage the investment program is granted to the Treasurer who shall be responsible for the investment of all funds. In his/her absence, the Financial Services Director, and/or Director of Finance, and City Manager, in that order, are authorized to act on his/her behalf. These responsibilities shall include the authority to open accounts with banks, brokers, and dealers, and to establish safekeeping accounts or other arrangements for the custody of securities and to execute such documents as may be necessary. Prior to any of the above activities being finalized, written concurrence by two of the above individuals shall be obtained.
FINANCIAL POLICIES
Responsibility for the operation of the investment program is delegated to the Financial Services Director and/or Director of Finance, who shall carry out established written procedures and inte rnal controls consistent with this investment policy. Transactions shall be complete, valid, authorized and properly recorded.
All securities owned by the City shall be held in a safekeep ing account with the financial institution in the name of the City, and under City control at all times.

FINANCIAL POLICIES
Under provisions of the California Government Code Section 53646, there shall be a report at least quarterly made to the City Council and City Manager reporting the status of all investments. Per subdivision (d), the legislative body of a local agency may elect to require the report specified in subdivision (b) to be made on a monthly basis instead of quarterly. The City’s Municipal Code requires the City Treasurer to make a monthly report to the City Council of all investments made pursuant to the authority delegated in this chapter.

This investment policy shall be reviewed at least annually by the City Council and City Manager or in accordance with California Government Code Section 53646 requirements.
FINANCIAL POLICIES
FUND BALANCE POLICY
The purpose of this policy is to establish a key element of the financial stability of the City by setting guidelines for fund balance. Unassigned fund balance is an important measure of economic st ability. It is essential the City maintain adequate levels of unassigned fund balance to mi tigate financial risk that can occur from unforeseen revenue fluctuations, unanticipated expenditures, and similar circumstances. The fund balance also provides cash flow liquidity for the City’s general operations.
Classification of Fund Balances
A fund’s equity - commonly referred to as ‘fund balance’ - is generally the difference between its assets and its liabilities. In accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 54, Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions, fund balance will be displayed in the following classifications depicting the relative strength of the spending constraints placed on the purposes for which resources can be used:
• Non‐spendable fund balance – amounts that will never convert to cash (such as prepaid items), amounts that will not convert to cash soon en ough to affect the current period (such as assets held for resale), or are required to be maintained intact (such as the corpus of an endowment fund). • Restricted fund balance – amounts constrained to specific purposes by their providers (such as grantors, bondholders, and higher levels of government) through constitutional provisions or by enabling legislation. • Committed fund balance – amounts constrained to specific purposes by the government itself. This requires a formal action of the government’s highest level of decision-making authority. Commitments may be changed or lifted only by the government taking t he same formal action that imposed the constraint originally.
• Assigned fund balance – amounts intended to be used by the government for specific purposes. Intent can be expressed by the governing body or by an official or body to whom the governing body delegates the authority. In governmental funds other than the general fund, assigned fund balance represents the amount that is not restricted or committed. At a minimum, this indicates resources in other governmental funds are intended to be used for the purpose of that fund.
Unassigned fund balance – is the residual classification of the General Fund and includes all amounts not contained in other classifications. Unassigned amounts are technically available for any purpose.
Since there are practical and/or legal limitations on the use of non-spendable or restricted fund balances, they are not subject to the fund balance policies. The fund balance pol icies are relevant to the unrestricted fund balances, which include committed, assigned and unassigned fund balances.
Authorization and Action to Commit Fund Balance
The City Council is the government’s highest level of decision-making authority and the formal action required to establish, modify, or rescind a fund balance commitment is a resolution approved by the Council at a City Council meeting. The resolution must either be approved or rescinded, as applicable, prior to the last day of the fiscal year for which the commitment is made. The amount subject to the constraint may be determined in the subsequent period.
Authorization and Action to Assign Fund Balance
The City Council may assign fund balance to a specific purpose in relation to this fund balance policy. By resolution, the Council has also authorized the City Manager and/or Financial Services Director to assign fund balance.
Assignments of fund balance by the City Manager and/or Financial Services Director do not require formal action by the City Council; however, each assignment must be appr oved by either of the authorized officials before the item can be presented in the financial statements.
FINANCIAL POLICIES
Of the available fund balance, the City strives to assign a minimum of 33% of budgeted expenditures and transfers out, with a target of 50% by fiscal year 2020, for the following purposes: (1) cash flow reserves (50%); (2) economic uncertainties (40%); and (3) budget-related reserves ( 10%). These assignments are to alleviate significant unanticipated budget shortfalls and to ensure the orderly provisions of services to citizens.
Should the assignments noted above fall below the goal or have a deficiency; the City will seek to reduce expenditures prior to increasing revenues to replenish fund balance within a reasonable timeframe. The City will try to avoid using fund balances for recurring operational expenditures.
Additional assignments may be made at the discretion of City Council or their authorized designees.
Unassigned Fund Balance
To the extent the unassigned fund balance is positive, t he City may draw upon the fund balance to provide cash financing for capital projects or other one-time purchas es. Should economic projections and prudent measures warrant, City Council may also approve the systematic reduction of any excess fund balance as a tactic to prevent tax increases.
Order of Expenditure of Funds
When multiple categories of fund balance are available for expenditure (for example, a construction project is being funded partly by a grant, funds set aside by the City Council, and unassigned fund balance), the City will start with the most restricted category - spending those funds first - before moving down to the next category with available funds.
FINANCIAL POLICIES

FINANCIAL POLICIES
FIXED ASSET POLICY
The City of Cathedral City's fixed asset policy stems from two major objectives:
1. Accounting and Financial Reporting - To accurately account for and report fixed assets in financial reports issued to external reporting agencies, granting agencies and the public.
2. Safeguarding - The City has a fiduciary resp onsibility to establish systems and procedures to protect its (fixed) assets from loss or theft.
In meeting the two objectives noted above, the City has established a Capitalization Policy (below) and an Inventory Control Policy (see Policy 30100), providing specific guida nce to determine which fixed assets are subject to separate accounting and reporting (i.e., capitalization) and safeguarding, respectively.
The Financial Services Department is responsible for, and has established, systems and procedures through which both objectives are met. These systems and procedures are used to identify, process, control, track, and report City fixed assets.
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) St atement 51, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Intangible Assets, became effective beginning July 1, 2009 (FY 2010). To address this, the City has established an Intangible Assets Policy, which is included later in this section.
Capitalization Policy (Accounting and Financial Reporting) Assets meeting the following criteria will be capitalized:
The asset is used in the City’s operations.
Life expectancy is greater than one year.
The asset has a minimum value as follows:
Vehicles, machinery, and equipment $5,000
Land and land improvements $10,000
Infrastructure $50,000
Buildings $50,000
Structures $50,000
Intangibles $50,000
This capitalization threshold is applied to individual units of fixed assets. For example, ten desks purchased through a single purchase order, each costing $1,000, will not qualif y for capitalization even though the total ($10,000) exceeds the threshold of $5,000.
For purposes of capitalization, the threshold will gener ally not be applied to components of fixed assets. For example, a keyboard, monitor and central processing unit purchased as components of a computer system will not be evaluated individually against the capitalization threshold. The entire computer system will be treated as a single fixed asset.
FINANCIAL POLICIES
Capital asset additions will be recorded as assets when purchased. Additions and deletions of capital assets will be recorded at least on an annual basis. Asset additions and deletions will be verified with the source documents.
All costs associated with Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) Plan approved by City Council during the budget cycle will accumulate as construction-in-progress. At the end of the fiscal year, costs of completed projects, as accepted by City Council, will be transferred to the appropriate asset account as of the last day of the fiscal year. Depreciation will commence at the beginning of the next fiscal year.
The City will maintain a listing of all assets meeting the capitalization policy. Assets will be separated into the following classifications:
A. Vehicles, machinery, and equipment
B. Land and land improvements
C. Infrastructure
1. Bridges
2. Streets
3. Curbs and gutters
4. Access ramps
5. Bus turnouts
6. Sidewalks
7. Traffic signals
8. Streetlights
9. Storm drains
10. Retention basins
11. Sewer lines
12. Water lines
13. Utility lines
14. Urban landscaping
a. Irrigation
b. Lighting
c. Outdoor furniture
d. Trees
D. Buildings
E. Structures
Capital assets additions will be recorded in the year assets are purchased. Additions and deletions of capital assets will be recorded at least on an annual basis. Asset additions and deletions will be verified with the source documents.
All costs associates with capital improvement projects approved by City Council during the budget cycle will accumulate as construction in progress. At the end of t he fiscal year, costs of completed projects, as accepted by City Council, will be transferred to the appropriate asset account as of the last day of the fiscal year. Depreciation will commence at the beginning of the next fiscal year.
FINANCIAL POLICIES
Developer constructed infrastructure is capitalized by the City as donated as sets at the end of the fiscal year in which the City accepts the infrastructure. The responsibility for general maintenance of the infrastructure transfers from the developer to the City at the time the City Coun cil accepts the project. The value of infrastructure is calculated based on information provided by the developer’s engineer.
The following will be included in capitalized costs:
Purchased assets – Assets are capitalized individually at their historical cost, which includes trade-in allowance, sales tax, installation cost, freight and delivery charges, and any other ancillary charges needed to render the asset into service.
Donated assets – Donated capital assets are recorded at estimated fair market value at the date of donation with a debit to expenditure and credit to revenue in related funds and the Statement of Net Assets. Constructed assets – Capital projects are capitalized as construction in progress until completed. Costs to be capitalized include all dire ct costs, site pre paration, professional fees, as well as any other ancillary charges needed to render the asset into service. Upon completion and City Council acceptance, these costs are transferred to the appropriate asset classification.
Costs Unique to Specific Asset Classifications
Land – Land costs, in addition to the purchase price, ma y include legal and title fees, survey fees, appraisal and negotiation fees, damage payments, relocation cost s, site preparation costs (clearing, filling, and leveling), and demolition of unwanted structures. Land is capitalized, but not depreciated. For associated costs related to the purchase of easements and rights of way, please see the intangibles section below.
Buildings and Structures – Buildings and structures assets costs may include purchase or construction costs; professional fees for engineers, architects, attorneys, appraisers, financial advisers, etc.; payment of damage claims; costs of fixtures attached to the buildi ng or other structure; insurance premiums; interest and related costs incurred during the period of cons truction and other expenditures necessary to put the building or structure in use.
Infrastructure – Infrastructure assets are long-lived ca pital assets stationary in nature and normally can be preserved for a significantly greater number of years than most capital assets (e.g., roads, bridges, tunnels, drainage systems, water and sewer systems, dams, lighting systems). Land associated with infrastructure is reported as land rather than as part of the cost of the related infrastructure asset. The City categorizes its infrastructure as networks. A network of assets provides a particular type of service, e.g., streets.
Improvements vs. Maintenance
The reporting department will make the differentiati on between improvement and maintenance projects by reviewing the budget document and using the appropriate detailed account. Improvements – Improvements consist of additions or betterments. An addition refers to a physical extension of an existing asset or the acquisition of an entirely new unit, which does not merely replace one of similar function or value. Betterments exist when a part of an existing asset is replaced by another and the replacement provides a signific ant increase in the life or value of the asset. These costs will be capitalized.
Maintenance – Maintenance costs refer to repairs to maintain the asset at its useful and current value.
These costs will not be capitalized.
FINANCIAL POLICIES
Depreciation and Estimated Useful Lives
All depreciable capital assets will be depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method of depreciation and the beginning of month convention. Estimated useful life by asset category is as follows:
A. Vehicles, machinery, and equipment 5 to 20 years
B. Land and land improvements Not depreciable
C. Infrastructure:
C.1 Bridges 40 years
C.2 Streets 20 years
C.3 Curbs and gutters 30 years
C.4 Access ramps 30 years
C.5 Bus turnouts 30 years
C.6 Sidewalks 30 years
C.7 Traffic signals 20 years
C.8 Street lights 25 years
C.9 Storm drains 50 years
C.10 Retention basins 50 years
C.11 Sewer lines 50 years
C.12 Water lines 20 years
C.13 Utility lines 20 years
C.14 Urban landscaping:
C.14.a. Irrigation 10 years
C.14.b. Lighting 10 years
C.14.c. Outdoor furniture 10 years
C.14.d. Trees 10 years
D. Buildings 30 years
E. Structures 20 years
Intangible Assets
Governmental Accounting Standar ds Board (GASB) Statement 51, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Intangible Assets, became effective July 1, 2009 (FY 2010).
The cumulative effect, if any, of applying this Statem ent requires a restatement of beginning net assets, fund balances, or fund net assets (as appropriate). This mean s certain intangible assets (and related amortization) in existence from July 1, 1980 to June 30, 2009 may need to be reported as the beginning (July 1) balance for intangible assets for FY 2010. See section entitled “Retroactive Reporting” for further details.
FINANCIAL POLICIES
An intangible asset should be recognized in the statement of net assets only if it is identifiable, which means the asset is either:
A. Separable (i.e., it can be separat ed/divided from the government and sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged) or
B. Arose from contractual or other legal rights, re gardless of whether those rights are transferable or separable.
GASB Statement 51 defines intangible assets as assets identifiable and possess all the following characteristics:
• lack of physical substance,
• nonfinancial nature (not in monetary form like cash or investment securities), and • initial useful life extending beyond a single reporting period.
Examples of intangible assets include easements, land use rights (i.e., water rights, timber rights and mineral rights), patents, trademarks, and copyrights. In addition, intangible assets include computer software purchased, licensed or internally generated (including websites) as well as outlays associated with an internally generated modification of computer software.
Intangible assets can be purchased or licensed, acqu ired through nonexchange transactions or internally generated.
All intangible assets subject to the provisions of G ASB Statement 51 should be classified as capital assets.
Accordingly, existing authoritative guidance related to the accounting and financial reporting for capital assets (i.e. recognition, measurement, presentation, disclosure, etc.) should be applied to intangible assets as applicable.
Exclusions
GASB Statement 51 applies to all intangible assets except: (a) assets acquired or created primarily for purposes of directly obtaining income or profit (these intangible assets should be considered investments), (b) assets from capital lease transactions reported by lessees, except licensing agreements to lease commercially available computer software, and (c) goodwill created through the combination of a government and another entity.
Threshold for Capitalization
The intangible asset capitalization threshold has been establ ished at $50,000. The threshold is to be consistently applied by all departments of the City for financial reporting purposes. All intangible assets at or above a specified dollar amount must be reported for the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR), all other intangible assets are excluded.
Measurement/Recognition
Effective July 1, 2009, intangible assets exceeding the City’s threshold should be recorded at actual historical cost.
For business-type activities and enterprise funds capita lized interest and ancillary charges, if any, should be included in the historical cost.
Only direct costs will be capitalized (indirect costs will not be included).
Intangible assets received in a nonexchange transaction (i.e., donated) are to be recorded at their estimated fair value at the time of acquisition.
FINANCIAL POLICIES
The fair value of an asset is the amount at which the asset could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in forced or liquidati on sale. Therefore, it would be inappropriate to arbitrarily assign a nominal value to a donated intangib le asset without applying a rational technique to estimate its fair value.
The threshold for intangible assets applies to individual as sets and it is not acceptable to account for items in aggregate to meet the threshold limitations.
For internally generated intangible assets, outlays incurred by the government’s personnel, or by a third-party contractor on behalf of the government, for development of internally generated intangible assets should be capitalized.
For internally generated computer software, outlays incurred during the application development stage (see next page) will be capitalized if they exceed the threshold. T hese outlays include the initia l purchase of the computer software/license and modifications made to the software befor e it is placed into operation. The initial purchase of the software/license and modifications made should be analyzed separately for capitalization purposes (do not aggregate).
Costs incurred prior to July 1, 2009, for internally generated computer software projects in the application development stage will not be capitalized. However, cost s incurred July 1, 2009 and beyond, for these projects will be capitalized if exceeding the City’s threshold.
Computer software licenses purchased/renewed will not be aggregated. Each individual license purchased/renewed will be measured against the City’s threshold and the useful life must extend beyond a single reporting period for the license to be capitalized.
Internally Generated Intangible Assets
Internally generated intangible assets are created or prod uced by the government or an entity contracted by the government, or they are acquired from a third party but require more than minimal incremental effort on the part of the government to begin to achieve their expected level of service capacity.
Outlays related to the development of an internally generated intangible asset identifiable should be capitalized only upon the occurrence of all the following:
Specified-Conditions Criteria
a. Determination of the specific objective of the projec t and the nature of the service capacity is expected to be provided by the intangible asset upon completion of the project. b. Demonstration of the technical or technological f easibility for completing the project so the intangible asset will provide its expected service capacity.
c. Demonstration of the current intent ion, ability, and presence of effort to complete or, in the case of a multiyear project, continue development of the intangible asset.
Only outlays incurred subsequent to meeting the above criteria should be capitalized; outlays incurred prior to this point should be expensed.
FINANCIAL POLICIES
Internally Generated Computer Software
Computer software is considered internally generated if it is developed in-house by the government’s personnel or by a third-party contractor on behalf of the government.
Commercially available software purchased or licensed by the government and modified using more than minimal incremental effort before being put into operation should be consider ed internally generated. Any of the following activities would satisfy the “modified using more than minimal incremental effort” criterion: changing code, changing fields, adding special reporting capabilities, and testing any changes.
The development and installation of internally generated computer software can be grouped into three stages:
1. Preliminary Project Stage: involves conceptual formulation and evaluation of alternatives, determination of the existence of needed technology and final select ion of alternatives for development of the software.
Expense all outlays in this stage.
2. Application Development Stage : includes the design of the chosen path (i.e., software configuration, software interfaces), coding, installation to hardwar e, and testing. Data conversion activities could be included in this phase if those activities are deemed necessary to make the software operational. Capitalize all outlays incurred during this stage once the Specified-Conditions Criteria are met. (Note: the Specified- Conditions Criteria are considered met when the Preliminary Project Stage is complete and management authorizes/commits to funding the project.) Capitali zation should cease when the computer software is substantially complete and operational.
3. Post-Implementation/Operation Stage: includes application training and software maintenance. Data conversion activities would be included in this st age if not deemed necessary to make the software operational. Expense all outlays in this stage.
Outlays associated with an internally generated modificati on of computer software already in operation should be capitalized if the modification results in any of the following:
a. increase in functionality of the software (able to perform tasks it was previously incapable of performing), b. increase in efficiency of the software (increase in level of service provided without the ability to perform additional tasks) or
c. extension of the estimated useful life.
If the modification does not result in any of the three outcomes, the modification should be considered maintenance and expensed accordingly.
Amortization (Use Straight-Line Method)
The useful life of an intangible asset ar ising from contractual or other legal rights should not exceed the period to which the service capacity of the asset is limited by those contractual or legal provisions. Contract renewal periods may be considered in determining the useful life of the intangible asset if there is evidence the government will seek and be able to achieve renewal and the anticipated outlay for renewal is nominal in relation to the level of service capacity obtained.
If there are no legal, contractual, regulatory, technological, or other factors limiting the useful life of an intangible asset, then the intangible asset should be considered to have an indefinite useful life and no amortization should be recorded.
A useful life that must be estimated doe s not mean indefinite useful life. Int angible assets subject to amortization will be amortized over a period of 5 to 40 years, depending on the asset.
FINANCIAL POLICIES
Impairment
If changes in factors and conditions result in the useful life of an intangible asset no longer being indefinite, the asset should be tested for impairment because a change in the expected duration of use of the asset has occurred.
The carrying value of the intangible asset, if any, follo wing the recognition of any impairment loss should be amortized in subsequent reporting periods over the remaining estimated useful life of the asset.
A common indicator of impairment for internally generat ed intangible assets is development stoppage, such as stoppage of development of computer software due to changes in the priorities of management.
Retroactive Reporting
The City of Cathedral City will not retroactively report the following intangible assets:
1. Those considered to have indefinite useful lives as of June 30, 2009 or
2. Those that would be considered inte rnally generated as of June 30, 2009.
3. Costs incurred prior to July 1, 2009, for internally generated computer software projects in the application development stage will not be capitalized. However, costs incurred July 1, 2009 and beyond, for these projects will be capitalized if exceeding the City’s threshold.
Intangible assets (and related amortization) requiring retroactive reporting (for the period July 1, 1980 through June 30, 2009) will be reported at actual historical cost. This includes purchased software still in use, even if fully amortized as of June 30, 2009.
NOTE: If actual historical cost cannot be determined for these intangible assets due to lack of sufficient records, estimated historical cost will be used.
Miscellaneous
This policy must be applied to all intangible assets. If an intangible asset meeting the threshold criteria is fully amortized, the asset must be reported at the historical cost and the applicable accumulated amortization must also be reported. It is not appropriate to “net” the intangible asset and amortization to avoid reporting.
When intangible assets are sold or disposed of, it is necessary to calculate and report a gain or loss in the statement of activities. The gain/loss is calculated by subtracting the net book value (historical cost less any accumulated amortization) from the net amount realized on the sale or disposal.
Inventory Control Policy (Safeguarding)
Department heads are ultimately responsible for safeguardin g their fixed assets from theft or loss. However, the Financial Services Department does recognize and ack nowledge its responsibility to establish and maintain systems and procedures that enable department heads to properly safeguard their assets.
In general, inventory control is applied only to movable fixed assets (generally those falling into the “Vehicle and Equipment” category), and not to land, buildings, or other immovable fixed assets. Fixed assets subject to inventory control will be accounted for and controlled through the same systems and procedures used to account and control fixed assets subject to capitalization.
FINANCIAL POLICIES
Fixed assets will be subject to inventory control if they meet at least one of the following criteria:
The original cost of the fixed asse t is equal to or greater than $5,000. Any asset less than $5,000 as requested from a department. This may include certain machinery and equipment that, due to its portability, value outside of the office, or character, are susceptible to theft or loss.
It may also include any asset that has been requested by a department to be controlled in order to satisfy an internal (operational) or external requirement. For example, Management Information Systems may wish to track all computer hardware to establish replacement and upgrade requirements for both hardware and system software.
Any asset required to be controlled and separately reported pursuant to grant conditions or any other externally imposed reporting requirement. For example, a grant program that has funded the acquisition of a fixed asset may impose a requirement that the fixed asset be tracked and identified as a grant-funded asset.
The Financial Services Department will conduct a fixed asset inventory on a four-year rotation schedule:
Year 1 – Police Facility
Year 2 – City Hall
Year 3 – Fire Facilities
Year 4 – Public Works Facility
FINANCIAL POLICIES
DEBT POLICY
The purpose of this Debt Management Policy is to organize and formalize debt issuance and management related policies and procedures for the City of Cathedral City, CA (City), the City of Cathedral City as Successor Agency to the Former Redevelopment Agency, and the Cathedral City Public Finance Authority (references herein to the “City” are deemed to include the Successor Agency and Authority) . The debt policies and procedures of the City are subject to and limited by applicable provisions of state and federal law and to prudent debt management principles.
This Debt Policy (Policy) is intended to comply with Government Code Section 8855(i), effective on January 1, 2017, and will apply to all future debt considerations and issuances for which the City Council acts as the legislative body for the City, the Successor Agency, and the Cathedral City Public Finance Authority (CCPFA).
The primary objectives of the City’s debt and financing related activities are to:
Maintain cost-effective access to the capital markets through prudent fiscal management policies and practices;
Ensure that judicious debt service commitments are made through effective planning and cash management;
Ensure compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws; Achieve the highest practical credit ratings within the context of the City’s financing needs and financing capabilities;
Ensure that all debt is structured in order to protect both current and future taxpayers, ratepayers and constituents of the City; and
Ensure that the City’s debt is consistent with the City’s planning goals and objectives and capital improvement program or budget, as applicable.
ASSIGNMENT OF RESPONSIBILITY
This Policy will govern the issuance and management of a ll future debt issued by the City, Successor Agency and CCPFA. This Policy will be reviewed and updated periodically as necessary. Any change s to the Policy will be approved by the City Council. The City Council is responsibl e for overall policy direction of this Policy, as well as the authorization of each debt financing. The Financial Services Director or Finance Director is to be responsible for implementation of the Policy, as well as its day-to-day administration.
The City recognizes that, while this Policy provides guidance and structure for the decisions and management of the City’s debt, changes in capital markets, city programs and other unforeseen circumstances may arise that are not addressed in this Policy. In these cases, management flexibility is appropriate, and modifications or exceptions may be necessary to achieve the City’s goals.
FINANCIAL POLICIES
DEBT ISSUANCE
Purpose of Debt Issuance
The City’s debt management program will consider debt issuance in cases where public policy, generational equity and economic efficiency provide a benefit to the residents of Cathedral City.
The City will utilize debt obligations and will give due consideration to all available funding sources, including available cash reserves, available current revenues, potential future revenue sources, potential grants, and all other financing sources legally available to be used for such purposes. Expenditure of bond proceeds are expected to fund major, non-recurring expenditures/expenses, including but not limited to: the financing of costs related to capital project planning and design, environmental, land acquisition, real property, and equipment acquisition; the construction or renovation of buildings and permanent structures; financing costs related to the debt issuance, capitalized interest, necessary or financially prudent debt service reserves; or other costs as permitted by law. Refunding or refinancing existing debt obligations are acceptable uses of bond proceeds.
Types of Debt
The City will evaluate the use of appropriate financial alternatives available as permitted by the State Constitution and applicable State statutes. These alternatives will be considered in order to secure the most cost advantageous financing alternative available while limiting the City’s risk exposure. Types of debt may include, but are not limited to:
Lease revenue bonds
Certificate of Participation
Revenue bonds
Land-secured financing, such as sp ecial tax bonds and assessment bonds General obligation bonds
Tax increment financing
Conduit financing, such as financing for affordabl e rental housing and qualified 501(c)(3) organizations Refunding/refinancing existing debt obligations
General Obligation Bonds
Short term notes
Lease-purchase transactions
Letters of Credit and revolving credit
The City will also consider the advantages of a negot iated or competitive bond sale and recognizes that a standard, all-purpose approach to debt financing does not serve the best interest of the City. The City will consider the unique combination of factors such as the type of debt needed, funding stream, market conditions and City programs to structure each debt issuance.
The City may choose to maintain an Interfund Loan Practice to provide guidance for internal financing between City funds.
Debt Structuring Practices
The maximum term of any debt issuance will not exceed the useful life of the assets funded from the financing.
Capitalized interest and deferral of principal may be considered but not required during construction of a debt- funded project. Fixed rate debt is preferred, but the City may consider the appropriateness of variable rate debt when considering financial market conditions and risk factors.
FINANCIAL POLICIES
Financing Options
In general, debt may be issued to fund new projects or to refinance existing debt.
New Debt
New debt issuances are used to generate funding for capital projects. These funds will be used for necessary land acquisitions, capital construction, equipment, related financing costs, and other necessary expenses that would deliver a project for the City.
Refinancing Existing Debt
A periodic review of the City’s outstanding debt will be undertaken by the Financial Services Department to determine refunding opportunities.
Refunding bonds are issued to retire all or a portion of an outstanding bond issue, typically to secure lower interest rates and to reduce overall debt service. Alternatively, some refunding’s are undertaken for reasons other than to achieve cost savings, such as to restructure debt service payments, shorten maturities and to change the type of debt instruments being used, or to eliminate undesirable covenants.
A present value savings analysis will be prepared to identify the economic effects of any refunding being considered by the City. The savings from any particular refunding candidate shall generally be at least 3% of the refunded principle amount, net of all transaction expenses. This 3% savings target may be waived by the City upon a finding that such a refunding is in the City's best overall financial interest and shall not be applicable for refunding transactions that are not solely undertaken to achieve cost savings.
Integration with City Capital Improvement (CIP) Plan and Budgets
The City is committed to long-term financial planning, maintaining appropriate reserves levels, and employing prudent practices in governance, management, and budget administration. In addition, the City maintains a General Plan as well as a multi-year Capital Improvement Project (CIP) Plan to establish and monitor priorities for projects. The City strives to integrate its debt issuances with the goals of the CIP by timing the issuance of debt to ensure that projects are available when needed in furtherance of the City’s public purposes and in a timely manner to avoid having to make unplanned expenditures for capital improvements or equipment from its general fund budget.
The City intends to issue debt for the purposes stated in this Policy and to implement policy decisions incorporated both in the City’s annual operations budget as well as the CIP.
Policy Goals
The City is committed to long-term financial planning, maintaining appropriate reserves levels, and employing prudent practices in governance, management, and budget administration. It is a policy goal of the City to protect taxpayers, ratepayers, and constituents by utilizing conservative financing methods and techniques so as to obtain the highest practical credit ratings (if applicable) and the lowest practical borrowing costs.
The City will comply with applicable state and federal law as it pertains to the maximum term of debt and the procedures for levying and imposing any related taxes, assessments, rates, and charges.
When refinancing debt, it shall be the policy goal of the City to realize, whenever possible, and subject to any overriding non-financial policy considerations, (i) minimum net present value debt service savings equal to or greater than 3.0% of the refunded principal amount, and (ii) present value debt service savings equal to or greater than 100% of any escrow fund negative arbitrage.
FINANCIAL POLICIES
Consultants
The City will, when appropriate and given the specific requirements of the financing, secure the services of independent financial advisors, underwriters, disclosure council, bond council, appraisal services and other service providers.
Investment of Bond Proceeds
Bond proceeds will be invested according to the City-adopted Investment Policy or the Bond Fiscal Agreement, if applicable. The City will not use derivatives unless the City adopts a separate comprehensive Derivatives Policy.
Ongoing Administration and Internal Controls
When issuing debt, in addition to complying with the terms of this Debt Policy, the City will comply with any other applicable policies regarding initial bond disclosure, continuing disclosure, post-issuance compliance, and investment of bond proceeds.
The City will accurately account for all debt-related activity. These records will be designed to ensure that the City maintains compliance with all debt covenants, as well as state and federal laws. The City will maintain a system of reporting interest earnings that relates to and complies with Internal Revenue Code requirements relating to rebate, yield limits and arbitrage.
Compliance
Initial Disclosure
In accordance with Senate Bill 1029 (2016) (“SB1029”), the City will submit a report of final sale to the California Debt and Investment Advisory Commission, not later than 21 days following the sale of the debt.

In the event that the Official Statement has not yet been finalized, the City will provide documentation to satisfy the requirements of SB1029, as necessary.
Ongoing Disclosure
The City will maintain compliance with the regulations set forth in Government Code Section 8855(i), Rule 15(c)2- 12 – Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 15(c)2-12, Continuing Disclosure (“Rule 15(c)2-12”) and SB 1029.

Adoption by Legislative Body
In accordance with SB1029, the City and the Cathedral Ci ty Public Finance Authority will adopt this policy. In implementing this policy from time to time, interpretations and variations may be made at the discretion of the City’s Manager or Chief Financial Officer, without approval of the Council, as determined by such person to be in the best interests of the City or its citizens, and/or for purposes of administrative efficiency or convenience or to comply with new applicable federal, state, or local law.

FINANCIAL POLICIES
DEPARTMENT TRAINING AND TRAVEL BUDGETS
Departments will be provided an annual budget for business travel, conferences and training based upon their unique requirements. Departments should monitor their travel and training expenditures to ensure approved allocations are not exceeded. If the overall departmental budgeted allocation has been spent, and additional travel is necessary, authorization by the City Manager, or designee’s required.
JOB TRAINING
The City supports job training as an ongoing process and as an important tool to help employees remain current in their job responsibilities and skills. All training is subjec t to available funds; however, job-required training will be given preference in the decision-making process for expending training funds. The City encourages training opportunities that can be obtained in a cost-effective manne r. Such opportunities will be given priority over other similar types of training.
Job Required Training: Includes mandated certifications , licenses or mandatory training required to perform the duties and responsibilities of a job. This may also include mandated safety training, technical or professional training, seminars an d conferences, workshops, and similar programs.

Job Related Training: Includes general types of traini ng related to the performance of current job duties, development of skills, or training t hat would assist an employee’s adv ancement within their department and/or organization.
Covered by MOU: These sections are not meant to pr ovide greater or different rights than those that exist in any Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). To the extent that any MOU addresses this topic and/or there is a conflict, the provisions of the MOU will govern.
COMPENSABLE TIME
Time attending any work-related training in which the cost is paid by the City is compensable time.
Travel Time: The principles which apply in determining whether time spent in travel is compensable time depends upon the kind of travel involved.
o Traveling during normal work hours is considered compensable work time, except for travel to and from the normal fixed or assigned workplace.
o If travelling to a location that is one other than the normal fixed or assigned workplace, an employee’s time traveling to and from the abnor mal or not assigned workplace location is compensable.
Travel Away from Home: Travel that keeps an employ ee away from home overnight is travel away from home. Travel away from home is work time when it cuts across the employee's workday. The time is not only hours worked on regular working days during normal working hours but also during corresponding hours on nonworking days.
FINANCIAL POLICIES
Home to Work Travel: An employee who travels from home before the regular workday and returns to their home at the end of the workday is engaged in ordinary ho me to work travel, which is not work time and is not compensable.
Time spent by an employee commuting to and from work is not work-related travel and is not compensable time.
Lunch or meal breaks are not compensable time unless the lunch includes a speaker and/or is considered a working lunch as evidenced by the agenda.
GENERAL TRAVEL
Employees shall select the most economical method of transportation in terms of expense to the City and the employee’s time away from the office. Employees shall receive approval, per the below, prior to making any travel arrangements.
o If travel expenses total more than five thousand dollars ($5,000), including registration, lodging, meals, and transportation (all expenses outlined in the travel approval form), travel shall be approved by the City Manager or designee.
o If travel expenses total less than five thousand dollars ($5,000), including registration, lodging, meals, and transportation (all expenses outlined in the travel approval form), travel need only be approved by the employee’s Department Head.
Upon approval of travel, City credit cards may be us ed to make travel arrangements. Receipts, approval forms, and expense reports shall be submitted when reconciling City credit card statements.
o Employees who do not have a City credit card may have their supervisor or other department employee reserve lodging on their behalf using a City credit card.
o A travel advance may also be requested for lodging expenses. (Refer to Section J for additional information relating to travel advances.)
If itemized receipts are not included in the Travel Expense Report, the employee may be responsible for travel expenses.
An employee who extends the appr oved travel for their own convenien ce will not be entitled to any additional allowance for meals or lodging.
Travel on behalf of the City in case of an emergency may be exempt from provisions of this section with approval from the City Manager. Expense reports or other paperwork will be completed and submitted as soon as practical upon return from travel, but no longer than thirty (30) days after travel expenses occurred.
A valid California driver’s license with appropriate endo rsement is required if the employee is driving a City, personal, or rental vehicle while on City business. It is the employee’s responsibility to maintain a valid California driver’s license and report any changes to their supervisor. (Refer to Section M for additional information relating to private automobile.)

FINANCIAL POLICIES
LODGING AND RELATED EXPENSES:
Lodging and overnight stays are not authorized for travel under 50-miles from the city limits. They may be authorized for travel more than 50 miles from City limits.
Employees should seek the most affordable rates av ailable for safe, convenient, clean accommodations at 3-star quality properties, using government, group, or discounted rates when available at reasonable and convenient times. In addition to the primary travel co st, e.g., room rate, etc., an employee making lodging arrangements should also consider secondary costs, e.g., internet service fees, property use fees, etc.
o Reservations for lodging should be booked as early as possible to take advantage of lower rates.
When lodging is in connection with a conference or organized educational activity, lodging expenses shall not exceed the group rate published by the conferen ce sponsor for the conference in question. The employee shall endeavor to stay at the conference sponsored lodging facility.
Lodging expenses over $250 per night shall be appro ved by the City Manager, or designee. If the GSA’s lodging per diem rate for the destination site is gr eater than $250, the corresponding GSA per diem rates shall be submitted with the travel approval form for review by all approving parties.
o However, this requirement does not apply if a conference sponsor has set aside rooms for conference attendees at a lodging facility. Instead, you shall book lodging directly with the lodging facility.
The group rate shall be clearly defined in the supporting documents provided by the conference coordinators or conference sponsor (all supporting documents shall be accompanied with the travel approval form).
Actual and necessary cost of lodging and related ex penses, including advance payments to any city employee shall be allowed, except as otherwise provided in this Section.
Lodging in upgraded rooms is allowable if:
o the employee pays the cost difference and provides proof of the price difference for the original and upgraded rooms; or,
o the employee or their department can document that no other option exists, and the selected lodging is the only option available – supporting documentation shall be attached to the travel approval form.
Lodging and related expenditures outside the provisions of this policy may be allowed only when pre- approved by the City Manager, in accordance with Section General Policy - Discretion.
An employee's reimbursement claims for lodging shal l include an explanation of the business purpose of the stay and be supported by receipts, a facility fo lio, and shall be accompanied by all approved travel forms. When reconciling City Credit card travel expe nses shall be included as supporting documents for invoice reconciliation.
FINANCIAL POLICIES
MEAL EXPENSES:
Meal expenses shall be allowed at the maximum dai ly meal allowance rate of $60 ($15 for breakfast, $20 for lunch, and $ 25 for dinner) per employee, inclusiv e of taxes and reasonable tips. Per diem advances and reimbursements for meals shall be allowed when related to attendance at conventions, scheduled meetings, conferences, seminars, special training, or assignments that require an overnight stay.
o An employee's meal reimbursement claim shall be based on meals while enroute to the training site, at training, and enroute home, but does not include breakfast on the departure date and dinner on the return home date.
o Meal expenses up to the per diem rate do not require a receipt to be allowable. Meal expenses beyond the per diem reimbursement allowance are the responsibility of the employee. If an employee uses a City credit card for meals, then the employee will reimburse the City if any meal limit amounts identified above are exceeded.
o Meals included in a conference or meeting r egistration are not eligible for reimbursement.
Therefore, if a meal is provided by conference or meeting registration, but the traveler chooses to eat elsewhere, the added meal expense is not reimbursable.
Meal expenses during attendance at any single day ev ent will be allowable only when it is not reasonable for the employee to provide their own meal(s). Requests for a same-day travel meal shall only be allowed when preapproved by the employee's department head, in accordance with this policy. In evaluating any request for same-day meal reimbursements, the employee's department head shall consider special situations on a case-by-case basis, taking into cons ideration the distance traveled and the duration of the specific business activity. The maximum reimbursement for any same day event should be $20 for lunch.
PRIVATE AUTOMOBILE
With the exception of employees receiving an automobile stipend, the City's preference is for all employees to use City vehicles rather than personal vehicles.
The City's private-vehicle mileage reimbursement rate is the same as the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) standard mileage rate (www.irs.gov) for private vehicles and will be effective concurrently with IRS periodic establishment of said rate.
Mileage shall be calculated by deducting the employee’ s normal commute from the total number of miles to and from the destination.
