Citrus Heights City Council Meetings
February 24, 2022

Printed on Recycled Paper
their proposed draft maps for consideration by the City Council with a deadline of February 17, 2022.

This City Council meeting is the second public hearing for the redistricting process, which is also the first public hearing with a draft district boundary map.

Once the City receives proposed district boundary maps from the public, these draft map submissions will be reviewed by the City’s demographer and posted on the City’s website, as well as entered into the public record.

Proposed District Boundary Map for Consideration
The City’s demographer has considered all of the public input received thus far, including public testimony from the first Public Hearing, along with the most recent 2020 census population data.

NDC has proposed one draft district boundary map that reflects the current district lines adopted on June 27, 2019, which meets the legal requirements under the FAIR MAPS Act. During this public hearing the City’s demographer will provide a presentation, and members of the public will have an opportunity to provide input regarding the draft district boundary map.

Staff is requesting the City Council provide direction on the draft district boundary map in order for the City’s demographer to create additional draft district boundary maps for consideration at upcoming Public Hearings and make any adjustments before adopting an ordinance establishing a final map to be used for the November 2022 General Municipal Election.

Criteria for Drawing District Maps
In accordance with the Fair and Inclusive Redistricting for Municipalities and Political Subdivisions (“FAIR MAPS”) Act, the City Council shall draw and adopt boundaries using the following criteria in the order of priority (Elections Code Section 21601(b),(c)):

1. Comply with the federal requirements of equal population and the Federal Voting Rights Act (FVRA);

2. Geographically contiguous, to the extent practicable. A district is not contiguous if it includes areas that: (a) meet only at the point of adjoining corners, or (b) are separated by water and not connected by a bridge;

3. Geographic integrity of any local neighborhood or local “community of interest” (socioeconomic geographic areas that should be kept together) shall be respected in a manner that minimizes its division;

4. Boundaries should be easily identifiable and understandable by residents. To the extent practicable, council districts shall be bounded by natural and artificial barriers, by streets, or by the boundaries of the City;

5. Districts shall be geographically compact in a manner that nearby areas of population are not bypassed in favor of more distant populations, to the extent practicable; and

6. Districts must not be adopted for the purpose of favoring or discriminating against a political party.

CITY OF CITRUS HEIGHTS

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT

MEMORANDUM
DATE: February 24, 2022
TO: Mayor and City Council Members
Ashley Feeney, City Manager
FROM: Bill Zenoni, Administrative Services Director
Tammy Nossardi, Finance Manager

SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2021-22 Mid-Year Budget Adjustment and Financial Forecast Update

Summary and Recommendation
Staff recommends the City Council review the General Fund revenues and expenditures for the first seven months of Fiscal Year 2021-22 and the updated Ten Year Financial Forecast, and adopt Resolution No. 2022-___ approving amendments to the Fiscal Year 2021-22 Budget.

Fiscal Impact
The proposed budget amendments will increase Fiscal Year 2021-22 General Fund revenue appropriations by $2,543,325 and increase General Fund expenditure appropriations by $1,017,511 for a net favorable impact to the General Fund budget of $1,467,814.

Background and Analysis
FISCAL YEAR 2021-22 MID-YEAR BUDGET REVIEW
The City’s budget for Fiscal Years 2021-22 and 2022-23 was adopted by the City Council on April 22, 2021. The Fiscal Year 2021-22 adopted budget for all City funds anticipated revenue of $70.5 million and expenditures of $75.3 million with the difference of $4.8 million budgeted from the accumulated fund balances in 28 of the City’s 44 various funds. As of February 10, 2022, $36.7 million (52.1 percent) of the budgeted revenue had been received and $39.9 million (53.0 percent) of the budgeted expenditures had been incurred.

The City’s main operating fund is the General Fund. The adopted General Fund budget for Fiscal Year 2021-22 anticipated revenue of $32.6 million to fund expenditures of $32.7 million (excluding American Rescue Plan Act funds). As of February 10, 2022, General Fund revenues totaled $17.5 million (53.5 percent of the budgeted amount). General Fund expenditures totaled $18.9 million (57.7 percent of the annual budgeted amount). General Fund expenditures exceeded General Fund revenues by $1.4 million at the end of the first seven months of the fiscal year. As the City Council has previously discussed, the General Fund operates in a deficit cash Item 10 Agenda Packet Page 139

Printed on Recycled Paper
flow position during the first portion of the fiscal year due to the timing of the receipt of major sources of revenue including motor vehicle-in-lieu fees and sales tax. During this period, the General Fund relies on the available fund balance and in recent years has also utilized available cash in other funds to temporarily bridge the cash shortage.

Based upon fiscal activities during the first seven months of the fiscal year and information currently available, staff is proposing adjustments to the Fiscal Year 2021-22 General Fund Budget to more closely align the budget with anticipated revenues and expenditures.

GENERAL FUND REVENUE
The Fiscal Year 2021-22 General Fund budget projected revenue of $32.6 million. This projection was based upon information available at the time the budget was developed in early 2021. Based upon actual revenue received as of February 10th and projected revenue for the remaining five months of the fiscal year, staff is recommending adjustments to the General Fund revenue budget which will increase the budgeted revenues by $2.5 million.

The proposed adjustments to General Fund budgeted revenue include:

Taxes and Franchises
The largest source of revenue to the General Fund is sales tax. Sales tax revenue was budgeted at $13.2 million. Based upon a combination of increased gas prices and gas consumption, auto sales and the opening of new retail businesses, the City’s sales tax consultant has increased the projected sales tax revenue by $854,000 to $14.1 million.

Revenue from the property transfer tax is also coming in higher than anticipated by $95,000 due to a continued strong local real estate market.

Licenses and Permits
The major revenue items under this category include business license and building-related fees.

Business license revenue was budgeted at $235,000, a slight reduction from Fiscal Year 2020-21 in anticipation of the impact of the COVID pandemic on local businesses. Actual revenue to date is consistent with last year, so it is recommended that the budget be increased to $250,000.

At the time the budget was developed, a slow-down in construction activity was also anticipated. The Building Division has continued to be extremely busy this year processing a high volume of permits, including Mitchell Farms which has been submitting plans sooner than anticipated. The overall increase in construction-related revenue this year is projected to be an additional $1,225,000. It is not anticipated that this level of activity will continue in future years.

Fines and Forfeitures
Revenue in this category is projected to be $223,300 under the budgeted amount. The major variance is due to a reduction of $178,400 in forecasted revenue from red light camera fines due to several factors including reduced patterns of driving during the COVID-19 pandemic and delays in court processing of fines. The projected revenue from vehicle fines is $45,000 under the amount budgeted due also to court processing delays as well as reduced public safety staffing during the first half of the fiscal year.

Intergovernmental Revenue
The second largest source of General Fund revenue is motor vehicle-in-lieu fees which is paid by Sacramento County in two installments – 50 percent in January and the remaining 50 percent in May of each year. The City has been notified that the Fiscal Year 2021-22 vehicle-in-lieu fee revenue will total $9,581,920 which is $238,350 more than the budgeted amount.

Also included in the intergovernmental revenue category is reimbursement for state mandated costs. Senate Bill 90 which was passed by the State legislature in 1972 provided that the state reimburse local governments for any new programs or increased levels of service mandated by the State of California. Examples of programs which fall under state mandated costs are domestic violence arrests and victims assistance, rape victim counseling center notices, stolen vehicle notification and other activities mostly impacted the Police Department. The State is extremely slow in processing these payments, which can take years to receive. In Fiscal Year 2020-21, the City received reimbursements of $32,900. While $51,500 in reimbursements were budgeted this year, only $480 has been received to date. The projection through June 30th has been reduced to $25,000.

Investment Revenue
Continued low interest rates have resulted in a reduction of $20,000 in projected interest earnings. Interest revenue will still be higher than last fiscal year due to the earned interest on unexpended American Rescue Plan Act funds.

Charges for Service
Charges for Service revenue was budgeted at $951,226. The largest line item in this category is Community Center Rental revenue. At the time the budget was prepared, it was assumed that the Community Center would see increased rental activity. The budgeted revenue estimate of $335,925 has been reduced to $175,000 based upon the lower than anticipated rental activity.

Adjustments to Police contract overtime reimbursement, Livescan and false alarm/permit fees (a net reduction of $19,800) are recommended based upon revenues received to date this fiscal year.

Other Revenue
Miscellaneous and reimbursement revenue is projected to exceed the budgeted amount by $475,500 due to the receipt of one-time revenue from the California Intergovernmental Risk Authority (CIRA) to fund a portion of the Police Department body worn cameras and increased general liability insurance costs.

A summary of General Fund revenues as of February 10, 2022 and the recommended budget adjustments is provided below:

GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES
The Fiscal Year 2021-22 budget includes General Fund expenditure appropriations of $32.7 million, with $18.9 million (57.7 percent) expended as of February 10, 2022. It is recommended that the City Council consider the following adjustments to the General Fund expenditure appropriations totaling $1.0 million:

Risk Management
It is recommended that the Risk Management budget be increased by $610,000 to fund increased general liability insurance costs ($350,000) and increased workers compensation claims costs ($250,000).

The adopted budget included $591,030 for payment of the City’s annual general liability insurance premium. The Fiscal Year 2020-21 cost was $551,323. Municipal general liability insurance costs have increased industry-wide due to increased liability exposure. The actual premium paid for Fiscal Year 2021-22 was $950,553. The Risk Management budget includes $360,500 for payment of workers compensation claims. Based upon claims paid to date, it is projected that the actual cost this fiscal year will be $610,500.

Non-Departmental
It is recommended that the Non-Departmental budget be increased by $157,511. The Fiscal Year 2021-22 budget includes $300,000 to fund accrued leave payouts for terminating employees. The cost this year is projected to be $360,000 due to the retirement of several long-term employees.

The second adjustment is related to the City’s annual pension liability payment to CalPERS. The actual cost of $1,353,703 exceeded the budgeted amount of $1,256,192 by $97,511.

Police Department
The City Council, on September 9, 2021, authorized the purchase of body worn cameras for the Citrus Heights Police Department. Of the $538,734 total cost, $266,784 was funded with Public Safety (COPS) grant funding, $21,950 was funded with federal asset forfeiture funds and the remaining $250,000 was funded with funds provided by the California Intergovernmental Risk Authority (CIRA). The $250,000 expenditure was charged to the Police Department budget which must be amended to reflect this unbudgeted cost.

In addition to the proposed budget adjustments discussed above, preliminary estimates of departmental savings from position vacancies and other cost savings total $1.4 million, which would result in an operating surplus of $2.9 million for Fiscal Year 2021-22. This is a very preliminary estimate and will be updated as we progress through the remaining months of the fiscal year. A General Fund budget summary is provided below:

American Rescue Plan Act Funds
The City received the first installment of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds in the amount of $7,838,486 in May 2021. These funds were deposited to a sub-account of the General Fund so that the expenditure of ARPA funds could be properly tracked for reporting and audit purposes. The final payment of $7,838,486 is anticipated to be received from the United States Treasury in May 2022.

On June 24, 2021, the City Council allocated $5,353,210 of the initial payment to restore public safety staffing in the Police Department. Of this amount, $2,541,434 was appropriated for Fiscal Year 2021-22 and $2,811,775 was appropriated for the Fiscal Year 2022-23 budget. Of the $2,541,434 budgeted for public safety staffing this fiscal year, $677,624 had been expended as of February 10, 2022 An additional $323,763 was appropriated by the City Council on January 13, 2022 for the Small Business COVID Recovery Grant Program.. The Small Business COVID Recovery Grant Program funds will be disbursed during the fourth quarter of this fiscal year.

A future meeting on ARPA funding is anticipated for an April or May City Council meeting.

TEN YEAR FINANCIAL FORECAST
As a strategic fiscal planning tool, the City maintains a long-term financial forecast. Because this forecast is based upon data currently available, it is updated periodically to reflect new information regarding anticipated future revenues and expenditures. The financial forecast covers a ten year period for the City’s General Fund. The City Council last reviewed the Ten Year Financial Forecast on October 28, 2021. The Ten-Year Financial Forecast has been updated and includes the following changes:
- Fiscal Year 2021-22 – an additional column has been added to reflect the Mid-Year budget projections.

This Chapter provides regulations for the protection, preservation, and maintenance of:

A. Native oak trees;
B. The habitat values of oak woodlands;
C. Trees of historic or cultural significance;
D. Groves and stands of mature trees; and
E. Mature trees in general that are associated with proposals for development. 106.39.020 - Applicability 106.39.020
A. Applicability to protected trees. The provisions of this Chapter shall apply in all zoning districts to the removal or relocation of any protected tree, and to any encroachment (for example, grading) within the protected zone of a protected tree. A protected tree is any of the following:

1. A native oak tree with a diameter of six or more inches as measured 54 inches above the ground, or a multi-trunked oak tree having an aggregate diameter of 10 inches or more measured 54 inches above ground. A native oak tree is defined as any of the following species: blue oak (Quercus douglasii), interior live oak (Quercus wislizenii), coastal live oak (Quercus agrifolia), and valley oak (Quercus lobata);

2. A heritage, or landmark tree or grove identified by Council resolution;

3. Significant groves or stands of trees identified by Council resolution;

4. A mature tree other than those listed in Subsections A.1 through A.3, that is 19 inches or more in diameter as measured at 54 inches above the ground, and located on a commercial parcel, or on a residential parcel that can be further subdivided, or on a parcel in the RD-1, RD-2, or RD-3 zones, provided that the tree is not a willow (Salix spp.), fruit tree, eucalyptus (Eucalyptus spp.), alder (Alnus spp.), cottonwood (Populus spp.), pine (Pinus spp.), catalpa (Catalpa spp.), fruitless mulberry (Morus spp.), privet (Ligustrum spp.), tree of heaven (Ailanthus altissima), or palm (Acoelorrphe spp.);

5. A tree required to be planted, relocated, or preserved by a requirement of this Zoning Code, or by a condition of approval of a Tree Permit or other discretionary permit, and/or as environmental mitigation for a discretionary permit; and

recommendations for any additional care or treatment. Inspection frequency may be specified in the Tree Permit Conditions of Approval.
106.39.060 - Tree Planting and ReplacementMitigation 106.39.060 The City's principal objective for the Tree Permit process is the preservation of protected trees. The review authority may condition any Tree Permit involving removal of a protected tree upon the replacement of trees in kind. The replacement requirement shall be calculated based upon an inch for an inch replacement of the DBH of the removed trees where a 15 gallon tree (i.e., nursery stock in a #15 container) will replace one inch DBH of the removed tree; a 24 inch box tree will replace two inches, and a 36 inch box tree will replace three inches. The replacement trees shall have a combined diameter equivalent not less than the total diameter of the trees removed. A minimum of 50 percent of the replacement requirement shall be met by native oaks. Up to 50 percent may be met by non-native species. The review authority may approve a replacement program using one of the following four five methods or any combination of the four five methods. The preferred alternative is on-site replacement.

A. Replacement trees. Replacement trees may be planted on-site or in other areas where maintenance and irrigation are provided to ensure survival of the trees. The replacement trees shall have a combined diameter equivalent not less than the total diameter of the trees removed. A minimum of 50 percent of the replacement requirement shall be met by native oaks. Up to 50 percent may be met by non-native species. The replacement requirement shall be calculated based upon an inch for an inch replacement of the DBH of the removed trees using the following formula:

1. One 15 gallon tree (i.e., nursery stock in a #15 container) will replace one inch DBH of the removed tree;

2. One 24 inch box tree will replace two inches DBH of the removed tree; and

3. One 36 inch box tree will replace three inches DBH of the removed tree.

B. Relocation of trees. In certain cases, the City may consider the relocation of native oak trees from one area in a project to another. Credit shall be given for relocation on the same basis as replacement. The guidelines and limitations for relocation are as follows:

1. The trees being recommended for relocation must be approved by the review authority whose decision will be based upon factors relating to health, type, size, time of year and proposed location.

2. The relocation of a tree shall be conditioned to require a secured five-year replacement agreement for the tree with security provided by the developer in a form satisfactory to the City Attorney. If at the end of five years the tree is deemed by an arborist to be in a substantially similar condition to that prior to the transplanting, the agreement will be terminated. If the tree dies during the five-year period, it shall be replaced as required by this Section.

C. Revegetation requirements. The review authority may, instead of requiring replacement trees, require implementation of a revegetation plan. The applicant shall enter into a written agreement with the City obligating the applicant to comply with the requirements of the revegetation plan. A performance security or bond for 150 percent of the cost of the revegetation plan shall be required to insure that the agreement is fulfilled. The review authority shall approve the proposed plan. The revegetation program shall propagate native oak trees from seed using currently accepted methods. A revegetation program shall identify the seed source of the trees to be propagated, the location of the plots, the methods to be used to ensure success of the revegetation program, an annual reporting requirement, and the criteria to be used to measure the success of the plan. A revegetation program shall not be considered complete until the trees to be propagated have reached one-half inch in diameter or the revegetation plan demonstrates the need for alternative success criteria and achieves mitigation on an inch for inch basis as approved by the Commission.

D. In-lieu mitigation fee. The review authority may determine that the remedies described above are not feasible or desirable and may require instead payment of a cash contribution based upon the cost of purchasing, planting, irrigating and maintaining the required number of 15 gallon trees. The cost of purchasing, planting, irrigating and maintaining a 15 gallon oak tree shall be set by Council resolution. The cash contribution shall be deposited into the Tree Mitigation Fund.

Tree Mitigation Funds can be used as determined by the Director:

1. Tree Mitigation Fund. This fund shall be used to propagate, purchase, plant, protect and maintain trees, including purchasing property to plant or protect trees, propagating trees from seed or container stock and maintaining existing and replacement trees.

2. To fund special projects that enhance urban forestry programming, build on existing information, and/or to develop outreach or educational materials in support of the community urban forest and tree canopy.

E. On-site tree preservation. On-site preservation of native oak trees that are less than 6 inches (<6 inches) dbh, as described in Section 106.39.020, and within the buildable area of the site may also be used to meet the tree mitigation requirement pursuant to the formula described in Section 106.39.060(A). 106.39.070 - Tree Permit Approval or Denial 106.39.070
Each Tree Permit application shall be reviewed, and approved or denied in compliance with this Section.

A. Review authority. A Tree Permit shall be reviewed, and approved or denied by the Director, except that the Commission shall decide upon a Tree Permit application where tree removal is part of a project that otherwise requires approval by the Commission.

B. Application evaluation criteria. The following criteria shall be used to support the findings required by Subsection C. for the approval of a Tree Permit.

1. General criteria.
a. The gross floor area of proposed buildings in relation to the "usable" size of the site and the amount of usable space on the site that does not require the removal of protected trees; b. Design features in comparison with other existing or approved projects in the vicinity and in the same zone that have or had protected trees on their sites; c. Factors that are unique to the site, such as topographic constraints, lot configuration and other physical limitations;
d. The overall health and structural condition of the potentially impacted protected trees; e. The approximate age of the each protected tree compared with the average life span for each species;
f. The number of healthy protected trees that the site will support, with and without the proposed development;
g. The effect of tree removal on soil stability/erosion, particularly near watercourses or on steep slopes;
h. Whether there are any alternatives that would allow for the preservation of the protected tree; and Article 4 - Standards for Specific Land Uses
