City Council Agenda Item
STAFF REPORT

FROM:
DATE:
Honorable Mayor and Councilmembers
Kris Lofthus, City Manager
May 6, 2025
SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the addition of a full-time classification for a City Engineer/Public Works Director and the related specifications, pay ranges and benefits to the FY 2025-26 annual budget and update the Police Chief’s salary to align with other department head salaries.
___________________________________________________________________________
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends, that the City Council approve a resolution authorizing:
1. A Full-time-time classification of City Engineer/Public Works Director to include the related job specification, benefit package and pay range with a low annual salary of $170,970 and a high annual salary of $207,815.10.
2. Update the Police Chief’s salary to align with other department head salaries with a low annual salary of $170,970 and a high annual salary of $207,815.10.
PREVIOUS ACTION
On March 15, 2022, the City Council approved a contract for an outside engineering firm to handle the services of City Engineer and the City has had an approved Maintenance Superintendent position in the budget. Oversight is needed to successfully run the various programs the Public Works Department oversees. The on-going cost of the engineering firm has been determined not cost effective, therefore, it is staff’s recommendation to add a City Engineer/Public Works Director to address the various Public Works duties.
In addition, on February 18, 2025, the Council took action to increase the salary of the Police Chief, in advance of the upcoming recruitment.
BACKGROUND
The City maintains a detailed Classification and Compensation Plan, which is publicly supported by the Master Pay Schedule and the Approved Position List. Together, these resources offer a transparent and comprehensive overview of all City employment roles, (Back to Agenda)
184
Subject: Add City Engineer/Public Works Director Job Specifications and Update the Police Chief Salary Date: May 6, 2025
including job descriptions, employee classifications, salary ranges, and the number of authorized positions across departments.
As part of the Fiscal Year 2025–26 budget development process, there was extensive discussion surrounding the costs associated with external consulting services. Although a majority of the engineering-related fees paid to consultants are funded from sources outside the General Fund, it was recognized that the overall expenditure on consulting services remains significant.
Through a thorough analysis and budgetary review, City leadership evaluated the financial impact of these ongoing consultant payments. It was ultimately determined that the creation of an internal City Engineer/Public Works Director position would represent a more cost-effective and sustainable solution. This newly established role would not only reduce reliance on external consultants but also bring critical expertise in-house. The individual in this position would be responsible for the strategic oversight and day-to-day management of the Public Works Department, fostering greater efficiency, accountability, and continuity in the City’s infrastructure and maintenance operations.
DISCUSSION
The City currently needs assistance with the following role. From March 2022 through current, the City is using outside consultants to provide some of these services. External contracting is far more expensive, and the time in the office is limited. In addition, it has been determined by management that fulfilling this position with a city employee better serves the community. Currently, the City’s official list of job classifications includes a Maintenance Supervisor, and the unofficial list includes a City Engineer. To improve efficiency and make better use of available resources, staff is proposing to merge these two roles into a single position titled City Engineer/Public Works Director. This proposed restructuring is intended to streamline departmental operations by reducing redundancy and fostering a more cohesive approach to public works tasks. The financial savings and reallocation resulting from this consolidation would be directed toward providing support for a variety of public works activities. By reorganizing the department in this manner, the City aims to align its staffing structure with evolving community needs, ensuring more effective service delivery while maintaining fiscal responsibility. This change is expected to result in a more dynamic and responsive team capable of better serving residents and supporting the City’s growth objectives.
Staff is prepared to recruit for this position. When making a salary recommendation, we first look to the regional labor market and the City’s comparable entities; we looked at all cities in Contra Costa County with populations less than 40,000 and found a representative data set to find classifications that are most comparable Clayton’s classification. Then we look internally at parity throughout the City’s compensation plan.
Thus, the need to increase the Police Chief’s salary to align with other department head salaries.

Staff anticipates a cost savings of approximately $100,000 by this action.

TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: Kris Lofthus, City Manager
Regina Rubier, Assistant City Manager
DATE: May 6, 2025
SUBJECT: Study Session onthe Proposed Biennial Budget for Fiscal Years 2025-26 and 2026-27 General Fund, Landscape Maintenance District Fund, Fiduciary Funds and Other Fund Budgets Workshop
___________________________________________________________________________
RECOMMENDATION
Receive report and provide direction if necessary on the proposed City of Clayton’s first biennial operating budget for Fiscal Years (FY) 2025-26 and 2026-27 of the General Fund, Landscape Maintenance District Fund, Fiduciary Funds and Other Fund Budgets Workshop.
BACKGROUND
The City of Clayton remains firmly dedicated to exercising strong fiscal stewardship, ensuring full transparency, and upholding a high standard of accountability in the management of public funds. This commitment reflects the City's core belief that taxpayer dollars must be handled with integrity and in alignment with the priorities of the community.
Through collaborative efforts between the City Council and City staff, the City ensures that all budgeting and financial policy decisions are made with careful consideration of the community’s evolving needs. This partnership plays a central role in crafting a financial framework that not only supports current operations but also sustains long-term public services.
The proposed Biennial Operating Budget for Fiscal Years 2025–26 and 2026–27 serves as the City's principal financial and policy blueprint. Once adopted by the City Council, 190
2 this document defines the service levels, operational goals, and capital improvement projects that will be delivered to residents over the two-year period.
Designed to reflect and respond to community priorities, the budget outlines how the City will allocate its financial and human resources to preserve essential services and maintain the quality of life that Clayton residents expect. To support this goal, the budget includes a planned use of General Fund reserves amounting to approximately $655,458 in FY 2025–26 and $809,166 in FY 2026–27. These reserves are being strategically applied to bridge funding gaps while continuing the provision of vital programs and services without significant reductions.
Beyond simply outlining expenditures, the budget provides a clear and logical framework for organizing the City's numerous departments, programs, and initiatives. It establishes a structured system for managing and controlling both revenues and expenditures, thereby promoting operational efficiency and financial accountability.
Importantly, the biennial budget document is made widely accessible to the public, allowing residents, stakeholders, and interested parties to gain insights into the City’s financial planning and operational priorities. This openness reinforces Clayton's commitment to transparent governance and encourages informed civic participation.
DISCUSSION
The City of Clayton officially commenced its Biennial Budgeting Process in February 2025 in preparation for the Fiscal Years 2025–2026 and 2026–2027 Operating Budget cycle.
This comprehensive planning effort marks a strategic step toward aligning financial resources with the City’s evolving priorities and community needs.
Since the outset of the process, Finance Department staff have engaged in a series of collaborative meetings with departmental leaders across all City divisions. These consultations have been instrumental in identifying both ongoing operational requirements and proposed capital improvement initiatives. This collaborative approach ensures that the budget accurately reflects the distinct needs and goals of each department.
In addition to assessing departmental requests, staff have undertaken a thorough reconciliation of existing contracts. This step was essential to verify that all anticipated expenditures, including contractual obligations, are fully captured and accurately represented in the proposed budget.
A key feature of this year’s approach has been the adoption of a “zero-based” or “bottomup” budgeting methodology. Rather than applying a uniform percentage increase across all departments, staff have built the budget from the ground up. This means every expenditure must be justified based on actual needs and strategic objectives, leading to a more accountable, data-driven allocation of public funds.
Strategic Plan Initiatives
191
3 In January 2024, the City started a Strategic Plan which evaluated the priorities, costs, and timing for implementation of various options to improve current and future service.
This budget was created with feedback received by the Strategic Planning Survey where the residents want better city services, improved communication from city employees, efficient handling of applications, simplification of ordinances, fair compensation for city staff, and better unity within the city council for effective decision-making. City staff will work with the City Council in the upcoming months to create an implementation action plan.
Staff also ensured that the City Council’s priorities as discussed at the February 20, 2024, City Council meeting. Those goals include:
• Public Safety and Infrastructure: Enhance the provision of public safety resources, invest in technological solutions, and maintain, repair, and improve public facilities and infrastructure.
• Community Parks and Recreation: To improve the physical, social, and environmental well-being of all residents by expanding equitable access to quality parks, recreational programming, and green spaces.
• Economic and Community Development: Promote effective use of existing amenities and resources to create future opportunities that enrich the community. • Financial Stability and Sustainability (Balanced Budget): Support fiscal health through long-term planning, cost control, heightened efficiency, increased revenue, and cost recovery.
• Landscape Maintenance District: Prioritize funding for the Landscape Maintenance District (LMD) to develop a comprehensive maintenance and repair strategy, including detailed mapping and a timeline that identifies repair locations, completion schedules, and associated costs.
This budget aims to be in alignment with the City’s Mission Statement and Values of being dedicated to serving the needs and desires of our citizens:
• Mission Statement: Enhance the City of Clayton by providing quality of service through:
o Responsible Stewardship
o Effective Collaboration
o Continuous Progress
• Values
o Excellence
o Integrity
o Respect
o Teamwork
At the April 21, 2025, Budget and Audit Committee meeting, the Assistant City Manager discussed a draft version of the General Fund, Landscape Maintenance District Fund, Fiduciary Funds and Other Fund Budgets. The budgets presented herein include minor updates and adjustments made consistent with comments received during this budget review process.
192
4 FY 2024-25 General Fund Budget Summary
The FY 2024-25 General Fund Budget of $5,811,063 was adopted on June 4, 2024. As of 4/30/2025 (with two months remaining in the fiscal year), Operating Revenue is $4.5 million and Operating Expenses are $5.7 million, resulting in a deficit of $1.2M; the year end projected amount is anticipated at approximately $200K.
The City’s FY 2024-25 anticipates its Operating Revenues and expenses to come in closer to budget and the new total anticipated Operating Reserve as of the end of FY2024-25 is anticipated to be $7,643,208. On March 5, 2024, the City established a General Fund reserve policy of 40% of the General Fund Operating Expenditures. The policy goes on to state that “the minimum General Reserve level will be calculated annually using the prior fiscal year’s estimated General Fund Operating Expenditures, excluding any major one-time transfers. General Reserve levels will be evaluated as part of the annual budget process or more often, if needed. Therefore, the Fund Balance of $7,386,301 exceeds the 40% target of $2.4 million. The Operating Budget Reserves will remain available to finance future inflationary operating cost increases and one-time capital and equipment costs. It is anticipated that a significant portion of the excess funding will be used over the next several years to implement Strategic Plan Initiatives.
Proposed Fiscal Year 2025-26 Operating Budget Detail
Effects of the Economy
As the City prepares to enter Fiscal Year 2025–26, economic indicators suggest a shift toward moderation following several years of robust post-pandemic recovery. Both local and national economies, which had previously experienced strong rebounds, are now exhibiting signs of stabilization. In light of this evolving landscape, the City is adopting a cautious and strategically forward-thinking approach to financial planning. This prudent stance is designed to uphold long-term fiscal health and ensure continued service delivery amidst potential economic uncertainties.
A key element of the City’s financial strategy involves careful stewardship of the General Fund Operating Budget, which remains heavily dependent on tax-related revenues. For FY 2025–26, tax revenues are projected to account for approximately 61% of the total General Fund revenues—equivalent to $3.9 million out of the $6.2 million total budget.
Although a modest year-over-year increase of 4% in property tax revenues is forecasted, this growth is relatively restrained. It reflects a conservative revenue outlook shaped by anticipated softness in several critical revenue streams. Specifically, downward adjustments have been made to projections for the Sales Tax which plays an important role in supporting the City’s core services and operations.
Given these factors, the City's budgetary approach emphasizes careful risk management and proactive planning to address potential revenue volatility, while continuing to invest in essential services and strategic priorities.

5 General Fund Revenue
Based on the Finance Committee’s direction received on April 21, 2025, staff submits the proposed budget. The total General Fund revenue budget proposed for the Fiscal Year 2025-26 of $6,025,920 plus a transfer of $655,458 from the fund balance for total resources of $6,681,378.

The proposed Operating Budget includes revenue from six primary sources as explained below:
• Property Tax: Is an ad valorem tax on real estate, including land, buildings, and tangible personal property. Collected by the County and distributed per state law, it funds cities, counties, schools, and special districts. In Clayton, property owners pay a base rate of 1% of the assessed property value. The City receives about
6.6¢ per dollar collected, with the rest primarily supporting schools, community colleges, and Contra Costa County. The City partners with HDL Coren & Cone to estimate property tax revenue, considering five key factors:
o Property turnover rate
o Market pricing and appeals
194
6 o New construction
o Proposition 8 reductions
o Proposition 13’s inflation cap
Estimates include both secured and unsecured property taxes. Property taxes account for 48% of Clayton’s General Fund revenue, primarily from the secured portion. For FY 2025–26, secured property tax revenue is projected to rise by 4%, totaling $2.9 million, which includes $510,459 from the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund. Also included is property tax in-lieu of vehicle license fees (VLF).
Originally a tax on vehicle ownership collected by the DMV, VLF revenue has been replaced with property tax allocations that reflect changes in assessed property values. For FY 2025–26, in-lieu VLF revenue is expected to increase by $60,811 (5.02%).
• Sales and Use Tax: California sales tax is imposed on the total retail price of any tangible personal property (excluding a variety of state mandated exemptions), while use tax is imposed on the purchaser for eligible transactions when sales tax has not been collected. Although the unadjusted general state-wide sales tax rate applied to transactions is 7.25%, the basic local rate (aka “Bradley-Burns” rate) returned to local agencies (i.e., City of Clayton) is only one percent (1%). This local share is unrestricted and must be received into the General Fund. In the City of Clayton, the applicable sales tax rate is currently 8.75% due to a combination of other additional local and regional voter-approved measures. The City to-date has received $456,788 or 77% of the budgeted sales tax for the current fiscal year. The sales tax receipts are paid to the City two months in arrears. • Other Tax: This category includes Motor Vehicle In-Lieu and Other In-Lieu taxes, which together account for approximately 3% of the City’s total revenue. Although they contribute a relatively small portion to the overall budget, these revenues still play a supportive role in funding municipal operations and services. • Business License Fees: Business license fees are charged by the City to legally permit a business to operate within the city limits. These fees vary based on the size of the business. The City requires businesses to obtain a license annually, with fees serving as a source of revenue for regulatory enforcement, public safety, and administrative services. These fees ensure compliance with local ordinances and help maintain standards that protect the public and support fair business practices.
• Franchise Fee: The third largest revenue source, making up 11% of General Fund budgeted revenues for FY 2025-26 is franchise fees. Franchise fees are rents paid by utilities or other businesses for the privilege of using the City’s right-ofway (i.e., streets, sidewalks, etc.) to locate utility lines, operate vehicles, and/or conduct private business for profit. The City currently collects a 1% franchise fee from Pacific Gas & Electric and a 5% franchise fee from cable operators (i.e., Comcast and AT&T/Pacific Bell). In addition, the City collects a 10% franchise fee from Republic Services for its collection, transportation, disposal and diversion of 195
7 solid waste and recyclable materials. For Fiscal Year 2025-26, the Franchise Fee revenues are projected to increase by a total of $35,785 when compared to the current year budget. This revenue source can fluctuate for the cable television franchise fees due to a shift from customers to change to digital • Other Allocations and Revenue: at 18% of the General Fund budgeted revenues for FY 2025-26, this is the City’s second largest revenue source. It encompasses Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund, Public Safety Allocation, Abandoned Vehicle Abatement, POST Reimbursement, Well Water Usage Charge, Misc. City Services, Unrealized Investment Gains/Losses, Fiduciary Funds Administration and Fines and Forfeitures.
• Permit Fees: This fee is a charge imposed by the City for the issuance of various permits, such as construction, land development, business operations, environmental impacts or special events. These fees serve multiple purposes: it helps cover the administrative costs of processing applications, ensures regulatory compliance and may contribute to funding related public services or infrastructure. The amount of the permit fee can vary based on the complexity of the project or type of permit requested. By requiring and charging for permits, the City aims to promote safety, environmental stewardship and orderly development while generating revenue to support governance and oversight functions. • Rental Use Fees: Are charges levied by the city to entities for the use of publicly owned facilities, land or equipment. These fees are typically applied when individuals, businesses, or organizations wish to temporarily utilize the City’s property for events, construction staging, or other private purposes. The intent behind such fees is to ensure that public resources are used responsibly and to help offset the costs associated with maintenance, administration, and potential wear and tear.
• Transfers: Allows for the movement of resources from one governmental fund to another within the City. These transfers are made to allocate financial resources according to the entity’s operational, capital, or strategic needs, and they do not constitute revenues or expenditures in themselves. Instead, they are recorded as “other financing sources” and “uses” to maintain proper fund accounting and transparency. Such transfers help ensure that restricted funds are used in compliance with legal or policy constraints, and that resources are properly aligned with budgetary priorities.

Salary and Benefits Expenditures
Salary and benefit costs are projected at $4.5 million and are based on potential new agreements with the applicable employee unions and associations. The Police Officers are included in the representation from the Clayton Police Officers Association (CPOA) under an agreement that expires on June 30, 2027. The City’s contract with the City Manager lasts through September 16, 2027. The staffing budget is based on full-time positions filled at the top step for each pay grade. The Miscellaneous Employees Group MOU expires on June 30, 2025, and negotiations are still underway.
Group Benefits include medical insurance, vision insurance, dental insurance, short- and long-term disability insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance and life insurance. The City participates in the CalPERS health plan, which provides employees with options of medical providers such as Kaiser, Healthnet, Blue Shield, and Blue Cross.
Supplemental insurance coverages, FSA plan, and 457 plans are contracted directly by the City and are reviewed annually. The City covers 50k in life insurance for each employee. Everything other than medical and dental are 100% the employee’s cost. 197
9 The City participates in the California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS) This is a defined-benefit pension system administered by an independent retirement board. The City has no control over the administration of this retirement plan. The City is current on required contributions and the budget includes the City making all assessed actuarially required employer contributions. Additionally, the City’s employees are fully responsible for and make all the required employee contributions except for Miscellaneous Tier 1 employees (which the City pays). The pension contribution included in the proposed General Fund Budget is based on the announced FY 2025-26 contribution rates.
Services, Supplies & Other Charges
The Services & Supplies Charges are projected at $2,176,472 for FY 2025-26. The budget for Services and Supplies was reviewed over the past few months of the fiscal year and expenses have been properly identified and charged to the correct accounts.
The Services and Supplies Budget includes contracts with outside agencies and vendors for the following services:
• Information Technology Services (Apex)
• Dispatch Services (City of Concord)
• Animal Control Services (Contra Costa County)
• Audit Services (Chavan & Associates)
• CFD Administration (NBS)
This budget was designed as a “zero base” or “bottom up” budget to let the City continue to function. Most expense items remained relatively neutral apart from Police Dispatch costs from the City of Concord and Animal Control costs from Contra Costa County. Staff has identified the following expenditures that force the deficit spending:

Other Funds
The City’s Non-Major Governmental Funds are reported as Special Revenue Funds (SRF); whereby, the revenues collected are for specific expenditures. These funds should be self-balanced with the appropriate receipts and expenditures. The City of Clayton has a number of SRF’s that are operating in a deficit spending each year. The City staff will evaluate the deficit spending funds in the fall of 2025 to provide the Council with some of the mitigating measures to address the budget shortfall. Below is a summary of some of the Non-Major Governmental Funds that will require additional revenues or a reduction in expenditures to be balanced in future years.
Rainy Day Fund
The estimated fund balance in the Rainy-Day Fund as of June 30, 2025, is approximately $70,000. There is no proposed appropriation in this fund except for the distribution of the interest earning estimated at approximately $1,500 for the Fiscal Year 2025-26.
Landscape Maintenance District Fund
In calendar year 2007, the City established Communities Facility District 2007-01 for a Landscape Maintenance District (LMD). CFD 2007-01 a special assessment district created to fund the upkeep and enhancement of landscaped areas within the City. The areas include public parks, medians, greenbelts, and other open communal spaces that contribute to the aesthetic and environmental quality of the neighborhood. The funding for the LMD comes from assessments levied on the properties that benefit from the maintained landscapes. The collected funds are used for activities such as mowing, planting, irrigation, pest control, and general maintenance. When the City established the LMD, it ensured that the shared outdoor spaces are well-maintained, visually appealing, and conducive to a higher quality of life for residents.
Special Revenue Funds
The City maintains various funds that have been formed pursuant to State law or City policies. These funds are earmarked for specific uses and their revenues and expenditures are restricted. The following summarizes the various funds:
Development Impact Fee - These fees are collected under Government Code Section 66000 to mitigate the impacts of new development on city facilities. Funds may only be used for facilities, not operations, and are to provide necessary facilities and equipment as a result of growth.
Capital Equipment – The City maintains a capital equipment fund and makes annual contributions to these funds to prefund major equipment and machinery replacement costs. For FY 2025-26, proposed contributions are $52,300 to the Capital Equipment Fund.
199
11 Capital Improvement - The City maintains a capital improvement fund and makes annual contributions to these funds to prefund major road and sidewalk repair costs. For FY 2025-26, proposed contributions are $717,173 to the Capital Improvement Fund.
Successor Housing Fund is a financial mechanism established to manage and allocate resources for affordable housing projects and initiatives, often following the dissolution of a redevelopment agency. When redevelopment agencies are dissolved, their housing assets and responsibilities are transferred to a successor agency, which in this case is the City. The Successor Housing Fund is then used to continue the work of providing, improving, and maintaining affordable housing within the community. This fund supports various housing-related activities, including the development of new affordable housing units, rehabilitation of existing housing, and assistance programs for low- and moderate-income households. The goal of the Successor Housing Fund is to ensure the continuity and effectiveness of local affordable housing efforts, even after the original redevelopment agency is no longer in operation.
Gas Tax - The primary purpose of the gas tax is to generate revenue for maintaining and developing transportation infrastructure, such as roads, bridges, and highways.
Grants – Federal, state and local grants received by the City. Grove Park District – The park district is a special-purpose governmental entity created to manage and maintain public parks, recreational facilities, and open spaces within a designated area. Funded through taxes, grants, and user fees, park districts are responsible for the development, upkeep, and programming of parks, playgrounds, sports fields, swimming pools, community centers, and nature reserve.
Other Funds
Assessment Districts
Neighborhood Street Lighting – This assessment district is designed to enhance local safety and security by improving street lighting. The City operates by funding the installation and maintenance of streetlights through assessments levied on the properties that benefit from the improved illumination. Stormwater Assessment - Is aimed at managing and improving stormwater infrastructure to prevent flooding and enhance water quality. The City funds projects through assessments levied on properties that benefit from better stormwater management. This collaborative approach ensures that the costs are equitably shared among property owners, leading to improved drainage systems, reduced flood risk, and healthier local waterways, ultimately contributing to a more resilient and sustainable community.
Geological Hazard Abatement and Presley Settlement Funds (GHAD) Is a specialized entity formed to identify, mitigate, and manage geological hazards such as landslides, soil erosion, and seismic activity within a specific area.
Funded through assessments levied on properties that benefit from these protective measures, GHAD plays a crucial role in safeguarding lives and 200
12 property by implementing proactive strategies and interventions. These may include slope stabilization, erosion control projects, and ongoing monitoring of geological conditions. By establishing GHAD, communities can ensure a coordinated and sustained approach to addressing geological risks, enhancing public safety, property values, and overall community resilience.
