CITY COUNCIL REPORT
City Council Regular 6.
FROM: Nick Mangkalakiri, Director of Public Works
DATE: 05/27/2025
SUBJECT: Accept Emergency Sewer Line Repairs on Avenida Granada
RECOMMENDATION
1. Accept Emergency Sewer Line Repairs on Avenida Granada, in the amount of $85,694.18; and
2. Approve an $85,695 appropriation increase in the Sewer Fund for the emergency repairs.
DISCUSSION
In February, Public Works identified a sinkhole in the asphalt pavement on Avenida Granada.
Upon further investigation, the sinkhole was found to be caused by a void underneath the roadway. An emergency video inspection revealed several offsets in a sewer lateral near the connection to the sewer main line on Avenida Grenada, which serves the Veterans Park restrooms. These sewer line offsets created gaps, leading to soil erosion and ultimately compromising the street’s structural integrity. Immediate repairs were undertaken to prevent further damage, minimize disruptions to the City’s facilities, and ensure compliance with state sewer permit requirements.
When there is a need for emergency work, Public Works reaches out to contractors who have previously submitted bids on similar projects to see if they are immediately available to perform the required work. Paulus Engineering was available to immediately begin repairs to the sinkhole. Paulus Engineering is based locally in Anaheim and has completed numerous projects for Cypress. This type of emergency work is done on a labor, materials, and equipment basis. This is also known as an emergency "force" account as the City directs and oversees the amount of resources that are used for the job. The City's on-call construction manager, FCG Consultants, inspected the work.
Public Works and FCG both reviewed and approved the "force" account documentation provided by the contractor. The work included excavation, replacement of approximately 65 feet of broken pipe, and restoration of the street and took four working days to complete. A breakdown of project cost details is included in the attached table.
BUDGET IMPACT
Emergency sewer and asphalt repairs, including inspection services, totaled $85,694.18 and sufficient restricted fund balance amounts are available in the Sewer Fund to pay for these unanticipated project costs.

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
City Council Regular 7.
FROM: Nick Mangkalakiri, Director of Public Works
DATE: 05/27/2025
SUBJECT: Award a Contract to Replace Existing Hardware/Software Systems at the Myra Avenue Stormwater Pumpstations, Project 384
RECOMMENDATION
1. Award a contract to Evolutionary Commercial Systems, Inc. (ECSI) for $304,535.98, and authorize a contingency of $45,500; and
2. Appropriate $100,036 in the Capital Projects Fund for Project 384; and
3. Transfer $100,036 from the Storm Drain Fund to the City Capital Projects Fund.
DISCUSSION
The Fiscal Year 2024-25 Capital Improvement Program and Technology Master Plan includes a project to upgrade the City’s stormwater pump station Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems. The SCADA system is a critical component of the City’s stormwater infrastructure and provides real-time data collection at the City’s pump stations and allows operators to monitor system performance, manage alarms, and make timely decisions to ensure operational reliability and efficiency.
The City’s current SCADA system at the Maintenance Yard and Myra Pump Stations No. 2 and 3 have been in use since 2014 and have reached the end of their service life. SCADA systems typically have a service life of 8 to 10 years, and the City’s current systems are now considered obsolete, posing challenges to effective monitoring and control. Notable deficiencies include outdated operating systems, cybersecurity vulnerabilities, obsolete network hardware, malfunctioning alarm dialers, limited touchscreen functionality, and aging processors. This project will replace the outdated systems with a secure, reliable, and modern SCADA platform that is critical for flood management. The Myra Avenue Pumpstation No. 1, currently in design, will include a SCADA system built to the same specifications, ensuring seamless integration across all sites.
Public Works issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for SCADA Design, Installation, and Integration, and received a single response from ECSI, a firm based in Huntington Beach, CA. ECSI comes highly recommended, understands the City’s operational requirements, has staff that worked on the original SCADA installation at Myra Pumpstations No. 2 and 3, and has performed similar services for the cities of Long Beach and Montebello.
BUDGET IMPACT
Project contract costs are estimated to not exceed $350,036 and $250,000 was included in the Capital Projects Fund as part of the FY 2024-25 Adopted Budget. A supplemental appropriation of $100,036 and a fund transfer from the Storm Drain Fund to the Capital Projects Fund will allow the project to proceed.

The coverage shall contain no special limitations on the scope of protection afforded to City, and their respective elected and appointed officers, officials, employees or volunteers. Contractor’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the limits of the insurer’s liability.
Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by City. At the option of City, either the insurer shall reduce or eliminate such deductibles or self-insured retentions as respects City or its respective elected or appointed officers, officials, employees and volunteers or the Contractor shall procure a bond guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claim administration, defense expenses and claims. The Contractor agrees that the requirement to provide insurance shall not be construed as limiting in any way the extent to which the Contractor may be held responsible for the payment of damages to any persons or property resulting from the Contractor’s activities or the activities of any person or persons for which the Contractor is otherwise responsible nor shall it limit the Contractor’s indemnification liabilities as provided in Section 5.3.
In the event the Contractorsubcontracts any portion of the work in compliance with Section
4.5 of this Agreement, the contract between the Contractor and such subcontractor shall require the subcontractor to maintain the same policies of insurance that the Contractor is required to maintain pursuant to Section 5.1, and such certificates and endorsements shall be provided to City.
5.3 Indemnification.
To the full extent permitted by law, Contractor agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the City, its officers, employees and agents (“Indemnified Parties”) against, and will hold and save them and each of them harmless from, any and all actions, either judicial, administrative, arbitration or regulatory claims, damages to persons or property, losses, costs, penalties, obligations, errors, omissions or liabilities whether actual or threatened (herein “claims or liabilities”) that may be asserted or claimed by any person, firm or entity arising out of or in connection with the negligent performance of the work, operations or activities provided herein of Contractor, its officers, employees, agents, subcontractors, or invitees, or any individual or entity for which Contractor is legally liable (“indemnitors”), or arising from Contractor’s or indemnitors’ 01004.0001/301445.11 9/28/2017
-11-
reckless or willful misconduct, or arising from Contractor’s or indemnitors’ negligent performance of or failure to perform any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Agreement, and in connection therewith:
(a) Contractor will defend any action or actions filed in connection with any of said claims or liabilities and will pay all costs and expenses, including legal costs and attorney’s fees incurred in connection therewith;
(b) Contractor will promptly pay any judgment rendered against the City, its officers, agents or employees for any such claims or liabilities arising out of or in connection with the negligent performance of or failure to perform such work, operations or activities of Contractor hereunder; and Contractor agrees to save and hold the City, its officers, agents, and employees harmless therefrom;
(c) In the event the City, its officers, agents or employees is made a party to any action or proceeding filed or prosecuted against Contractor for such damages or other claims arising out of or in connection with the negligent performance of or failure to perform the work, operation or activities of Contractor hereunder, Contractor agrees to pay to the City, its officers, agents or employees, any and all costs and expenses incurred by the City, its officers, agents or employees in such action or proceeding, including but not limited to, legal costs and attorney’s fees.
Contractor shall incorporate similar indemnity agreements with its subcontractors and if it fails to do so Contractor shall be fully responsible to indemnify City hereunder therefore, and failure of City to monitor compliance with these provisions shall not be a waiver hereof. This indemnification includes claims or liabilities arising from any negligent or wrongful act, error or omission, or reckless or willful misconduct of Contractor in the performance of professional services hereunder. The provisions of this Section do not apply to claims or liabilities occurring as a result of City’s sole negligence or willful acts or omissions, but, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall apply to claims and liabilities resulting in part from City’s negligence, except that design professionals’ indemnity hereunder shall be limited to claims and liabilities arising out of the negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of the design professional. The indemnity obligation shall be binding on successors and assigns of Contractor and shall survive termination of this Agreement.
5.4 Sufficiency of Insurer.
Insurance required by this Agreement shall be satisfactory only if issued by companies qualified to do business in California, rated “A” or better in the most recent edition of Best Rating Guide, The Key Rating Guide or in the Federal Register, and only if they are of a financial category Class VII or better, unless such requirements are waived by the Risk Manager of the City (“Risk Manager”) due to unique circumstances. If this Agreement continues for more than 3 years duration, or in the event the risk manager determines that the work or services to be performed under this Agreement creates an increased or decreased risk of loss to the City, the Contractor agrees that the minimum limits of the insurance policies may be changed accordingly upon receipt of written notice from the Risk Manager.

(a) All information gained or work product produced by Contractor in performance of this Agreement shall be considered confidential, unless such information is in the public domain or already known to Contractor.

City retains the right, but has no obligation, to represent Contractor or be present at any deposition, hearing or similar proceeding. Contractor agrees to cooperate fully with City and to provide City with the opportunity to review any response to discovery requests provided by Contractor. However, this right to review any such response does not imply or mean the right by City to control, direct, or rewrite said response.
ARTICLE 7. ENFORCEMENT OF AGREEMENT AND TERMINATION
7.1 California Law.
This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed and governed both as to validity and to performance of the parties in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Legal actions concerning any dispute, claim or matter arising out of or in relation to this Agreement shall be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of Orange, State of California, or any other appropriate court in such county, and Contractor covenants and agrees to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such court in the event of such action. In the event of litigation in a U.S. District 01004.0001/301445.11 9/28/2017
-14-
Court, venue shall lie exclusively in the Central District of California, in the County of Orange, State of California.
7.2 Disputes; Default.
In the event that Contractor is in default under the terms of this Agreement, the City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Contractor for any work performed after the date of default. Instead, the City may give notice to Contractor of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Contractor may cure the default.
This timeframe is presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended, though not reduced, if circumstances warrant. During the period of time that Contractor is in default, the City shall hold all invoices and shall, when the default is cured, proceed with payment on the invoices. In the alternative, the City may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay some or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Contractor does not cure the default, the City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement under this Article. Any failure on the part of the City to give notice of the Contractor’s default shall not be deemed to result in a waiver of the City’s legal rights or any rights arising out of any provision of this Agreement.
7.3 Retention of Funds.
Contractor hereby authorizes City to deduct from any amount payable to Contractor (whether or not arising out of this Agreement) (i) any amounts the payment of which may be in dispute hereunder or which are necessary to compensate City for any losses, costs, liabilities, or damages suffered by City, and (ii) all amounts for which City may be liable to third parties, by reason of Contractor’s acts or omissions in performing or failing to perform Contractor’s obligation under this Agreement. In the event that any claim is made by a third party, the amount or validity of which is disputed by Contractor, or any indebtedness shall exist which shall appear to be the basis for a claim of lien, City may withhold from any payment due, without liability for interest because of such withholding, an amount sufficient to cover such claim. The failure of City to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of the Contractor to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein.
7.4 Waiver.
Waiver by any party to this Agreement of any term, condition, or covenant of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other term, condition, or covenant. Waiver by any party of any breach of the provisions of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other provision or a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation of any provision of this Agreement.
Acceptance by City of any work or services by Contractor shall not constitute a waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by a non-defaulting party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver.
Any waiver by either party of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement.
7.5 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative.
Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the parties are cumulative and the exercise by either party 01004.0001/301445.11 9/28/2017
-15-
of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other party.
7.6 Legal Action.
In addition to any other rights or remedies, either party may take legal action, in law or in equity, to cure, correct or remedy any default, to recover damages for any default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Contractor shall file a statutory claim pursuant to Government Code Sections 905 et. seq. and 910 et. seq., in order to pursue a legal action under this Agreement.
7.7 Termination Prior to Expiration of Term.
This Section shall govern any termination of this Contract except as specifically provided in the following Section for termination for cause. The City reserves the right to terminate this Contract at any time, with or without cause, upon written notice to Contractor. In addition, the Contractor may terminate this Contract for cause, upon sixty (60) days’ advance written notice to City. Upon receipt of any notice of termination, Contractor shall immediately cease all services hereunder except such as may be specifically approved by the Contract Officer. Except where the Contractor has initiated termination, the Contractor shall be entitled to compensation for all services rendered prior to the effective date of the notice of termination and for any services authorized by the Contract Officer thereafter in accordance with the Schedule of Compensation or such as may be approved by the Contract Officer, except as provided in Section 7.3. In the event the Contractor has initiated termination, the Contractor shall be entitled to compensation only for the reasonable value of the work product actually produced hereunder. In the event of termination without cause pursuant to this Section, the terminating party need not provide the non-terminating party with the opportunity to cure pursuant to Section 7.2.
7.8 Termination for Default of Contractor.
If termination is due to the failure of the Contractor to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 7.2, take over the work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and the Contractor shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein stipulated (provided that the City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such damages), and City may withhold any payments to the Contractor for the purpose of set-off or partial payment of the amounts owed the City as previously stated.
7.9 Attorney’s Fees.
If either party to this Agreement is required to initiate or defend or made a party to any action or proceeding in any way connected with this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief which may be granted, whether legal or equitable, shall be entitled to reasonable attorney’s fees.

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
City Council Regular 8.
FROM: Nick Mangkalakiri, Director of Public Works
DATE: 05/27/2025
SUBJECT: Approve a Cooperative Agreement with the City Los Alamitos for the Traffic Signal at the Intersection of Calle Lee and Cerritos Avenue
RECOMMENDATION
1. Approve the Cooperative Agreement with the City of Los Alamitos for Traffic Signal Maintenance; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement.
DISCUSSION
On June 24, 2024, the City Council approved Conditional Use Permit (CUP) No. 2024-1 and Tentative Parcel Map (TPM) No. 2023-134 to establish the Sycamore Creek Community Charter School (SCCCS) at 4321 and 4323 Cerritos Avenue. A condition of approval for the CUP and TPM requires SCCCS to construct a new traffic signal at the intersection of Calle Lee and Cerritos Avenue, at the developer's expense. Two corners of the intersection are in the City of Cypress while the remaining two are in the City of Los Alamitos; therefore, the jurisdiction of the traffic signal will be shared 50/50 between the two cities.
Once installed, Cypress will be responsible for the maintenance and operation of the traffic signal. The City currently contracts with Yunex LLC to provide routine preventative maintenance services, as well as extraordinary maintenance. The routine monthly maintenance cost is approximately $85 per intersection. Costs for extraordinary maintenance, such as traffic signal damage due to a vehicle collision, are billed on a time and material basis. Cypress will invoice the City of Los Alamitos for 50% of all costs associated with the traffic signal.
Construction on the new signal is scheduled to begin in September with completion in November.
BUDGET IMPACT
SCCCS will pay for the installation of the traffic signal. All maintenance and energy costs, SCCCS will pay for the installation of the traffic signal. All maintenance and energy costs, including any unforeseen extraordinary maintenance, will be shared proportionately between the cities of Cypress and Los Alamitos. Maintenance costs for the City's traffic signals and streetlights are paid from the Lighting District Fund, and the reimbursements from Los Alamitos offset these costs.

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
City Council Regular 9.
FROM: Jeff Draper, Director of Recreation and Community Services DATE: 05/27/2025
SUBJECT: Approve an Agreement for Audio and Lighting Services at Citywide Special Events
RECOMMENDATION
Approve a three-year agreement with That Sound Guy for audio and lighting needs at citywide special events not to exceed $57,975, with an option for two one-year extensions.
DISCUSSION
Recreation and Community Services produces a variety of citywide special events each year including Concerts on the Green, Salute to America, Cypress Run, State of the City, and the Holiday Sing. Each of the events requires contract audio and lighting services to enhance the experience for those in attendance.
A Request for Proposal (RFP) was issued to qualified audio and lighting contractors in March with four contractors responding. That Sound Guy, based in Garden Grove, is recommended as the top-rated proposal based on experience with similar projects, the ability to provide the requested services at the lowest cost of the four responding vendors, and their past history with the City as they have provided audio and lighting services for City events since 2023.
The recommended three-year agreement provides the City with the option for two additional one-year terms. Audio and lighting services are estimated at $57,975 for the initial three-year term of the agreement. If the two, one-year options are exercised, the total five-year cost would not exceed $104,875.
BUDGET IMPACT
Sufficient amounts are included in the District's FY2024-25 Budget and have been incorporated into the FY 2025-26 Proposed Budget scheduled for adoption on June 9.

INTRODUCTION
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council,
We are pleased to present the City’s five-year Technology Master Plan. The Plan provides a blueprint for technology investments; much like the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) does for facilities and infrastructure. It also aims to enable the city to enhance the delivery of core municipal services to our community and promote organizational effectiveness.
Plan Overview
The Technology Master Plan projects are funded through a variety of sources including the City’s Technology Investment Fund, which was established a decade ago to provide start-up capital for new technology projects. Additionally, there are accumulated replacement funds set aside (largely from the General Fund) and some restricted monies (such as federally funded police grants) which are available for the replacement of existing technology. The first year of the proposed Technology Master Plan calls for investing $55,000 from Accumulated Replacement Funds, $127,000 from the City’s General Fund, and $40,250 from the Technology Investment Fund.
The technology projects are classified into four categories:
• Customer service projects, which enhance the City’s abilities to serve its customers. • Organizational efficiency/transparency projects, which provide internal process efficiencies and enhance access to records and information through the City’s website. • Technology infrastructure projects, which provide for the replacement of vital existing equipment and invest in anticipated future needs.
• Unfunded future projects (if any) are of interest to staff and may be submitted to the City Council for future consideration. These projects may have significant funding requirements and/or legal barriers to consider prior to inclusion as a funded project in the first year of future Technology Master Plans.
Plan Objectives and Considerations
The Technology Master Plan is crafted in support of the City’s highest priorities. Guided by the City’s Strategic Plan, this updated Plan includes targeted projects to meet strategic goals, such as strengthening safety across city facilities and throughout the community.
In addition to public safety, this Plan includes initiatives designed to modernize public-facing services and enhance internal project management tools. These upgrades will improve service delivery, streamline city operations, and increase overall responsiveness to residents’ needs.
A critical element of the Plan is maintaining a consistent, city-wide hardware refresh cycle. This ensures staff can work efficiently while protecting city infrastructure from hardware vulnerabilities and cybersecurity threats. For the current cycle, notable infrastructure investments include upgrades to audiovisual systems across multiple city facilities.
Conclusion
Now over a decade old, the Technology Master Plan has proven to be a key driver of Cypress’ technological growth. As the City’s technological needs have evolved, many original systems deployed through earlier versions of the Plan have already required replacement. This highlights the importance of continuous evaluation and adaptability through the plan. Ongoing investment in the Technology Master Plan is essential to maintain and advance the City’s infrastructure. The City Council’s vision and continued support remain critical to ensuring Cypress is prepared to meet future demands and technological advancements.

Project Title: Online Public Records Request System
Requesting Dept.: Administration
One-Time Cost: $2,000
Ongoing Cost: $8,000 Annually
Recommended Year: FY 2025-26
Funding Source: City General Fund
This project is the proposed implementation of an online public records request system that would allow the public to submit requests for public records online, as well as provide staff with a fully integrated solution to efficiently route, monitor and respond to pending requests. The City’s current public records request process is completely manual and requires the public to submit requests via a manual form either in-person or via email. An online public records system will increase efficiency and make the process of requesting public records easier for the public. As part of this project, the city would need to procure a software system and budget for annual service/maintenance costs in future budget years.
Project Title: Website Enhancements
Requesting Dept.: Administration
One-Time Cost: $50,000
Ongoing Cost: N/A
Recommended Year: FY 2026-27

The project is the proposed review and update to the City’s website as it relates to the text copy and information displayed throughout the website. A third-party copy/content writer service will be used in conjunction with staff to rewrite information on the website to be up to date, accurate, and consistent throughout the site. This service should also provide guidelines and templates for staff to create new copy content in the future. The goal of this project would be to ensure that information displayed on the city website is clear, concise, and consistent throughout for the effective and efficient use of the public.

The City currently uses outdated software and processes for work order tracking and asset management.
The existing tracking system is not directly linked to any infrastructure assets. New integrated software for both work orders and asset management would provide both cost and tracking efficiencies and increase productivity. This software could also be configured to allow City contractors to input data into the system to create accountability and allow staff to manage the productivity of contractors. Staff would recommend a cloud-based system that would not require the utilization of City servers. Staff envision this software will integrate with the public mobile app for 311 reporting by the public.

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
City Council Regular 11.
FROM: Matt Burton, Director of Finance and Administrative Services DATE: 05/27/2025
SUBJECT: Receive and File the Investment Report for the Month Ended April 30, 2025
RECOMMENDATION
Receive and file the attached investment report.
DISCUSSION
California Government Code Section 53607 and Cypress Municipal Code Section 2-18(f) requires the submission of a monthly investment report to the City Council. As of April 30, 2025, the City had $184.8 million (current market value) in cash and investments and the interest return (yield) on the public funds investments was 4.31%. As required by the Government Code, all investments are in conformity with the City's investment policy and sufficient cash flows are available to meet the next six months of estimated expenditures.
The attached Summary of Cash and Investments presents the investments held by the City of Cypress as of April 30, 2025. The Investment Report consists of the following five summaries:
1. Summary of Cash and Investments - Provides the total portfolio of the City.
Changes in Cash and Investments - Provides a two-month cash flow analysis by fund type. These separate fund types allow for restricted monies to be segregated and tracked separately. The total ending amount agrees with the current market value shown in the Summary of Cash and Investments.
2. Investments at Market Value by Maturity Date - Provides a list of investments by maturity date, and an indication of the scheduled liquidity (ability to turn into cash) of the investments. The California Government Code restricts the type of investments eligible for public funds. The City’s Investment Policy further defines permitted investments.
These restrictions on investment types and the terms of allowable investments tend to result in limited yields on City investments.
3. Interfund Investments - Summarizes all authorized and outstanding loans between City funds. The two loans from the City to the Cypress Recreation and Park District relate to the construction of Lexington Park and the rehabilitation of Arnold Cypress Park.
4. Summary of Cash and Investments Held In Trust - Indicates the investments held in trust by the Public Agency Retirement Services (PARS) to offset unfunded pension
5. trust by the Public Agency Retirement Services (PARS) to offset unfunded pension liabilities. Pension trust assets can only be used to pay for future pension obligations.
The legal restrictions on the allowable investment types are less restrictive than those in the City's portfolio, which provides the ability for the trust to invest in more diverse assets which have the potential to yield a higher long-term rate of return.
As mentioned previously, the City had $184.8 million (current market value) in cash and investments on April 30, 2025. The investments include Federal Agencies and US Treasuries Debt ($113.2 million) and Investment Pools ($67.0 million). The City's bank accounts held $4.6 million on March 31, 2025.
A portion of the City's portfolio is invested in the State Investment Pool (Local Agency Investment Fund or LAIF), which provides a diversified investment pool for local agencies. By using the combined size of the participating cities and agencies, the State Pool provides a competitive yield, liquidity and investment diversification and management that would otherwise be unavailable to a single entity.
The amount of cash in the City’s checking accounts fluctuates based on the maturity of investments, daily cash receipts, and when vendors and employees are paid. The daily balances maintained in the checking accounts provide credits which offset monthly bank charges. In addition to the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation (FDIC) which insures the first $250,000, excess checking deposits are secured by banks, government, or mortgage securities valued between 110% and 150% of the deposits.

DISCUSSION
Payments to vendors for goods and services received and/or rendered are initiated and approved by the requesting department in accordance with proper purchasing guidelines.
Processing of these payments occurs centrally in the City's Finance Department with payments issued bi-weekly. A register listing of these payments is typically presented each month at the second regularly scheduled meeting of the City Council. This register also includes any Electronic Funds Transfers (EFT), outgoing payroll transfers or wires issued since the previous register was presented to the City Council. Voided payments (if any) are also identified.
All payments are processed on the City's financial management software system. This system generates a payment batch register, sorted by warrant number (or EFT/Wire number), and presents the invoice amount and a description of the payment issued.
BUDGET IMPACT

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
City Council Regular 13.
FROM: Matt Burton, Director of Finance and Administrative Services DATE: 05/27/2025
SUBJECT: Discussion on the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Proposed Budget and Capital Improvement Program
RECOMMENDATION
Receive direction from the City Council on changes to the FY 2025-26 Proposed Budget and Capital Improvement Program scheduled for adoption on June 9, 2025.
DISCUSSION
Each May, the City Manager submits the Proposed Budget and CIP for the City and Recreation and Park District to the City Council. The first step in the Budget and CIP adoption process is a workshop that provides the City Council with the opportunity to ask questions about the Proposed Budget and CIP and provide direction prior to considering Budget adoption on June 9. The workshop may be followed by additional consideration of the Proposed Budget and CIP at the subsequent City Council meeting. The introduction workshop was held on May 12 and provided the City Council with the opportunity to ask questions about the Proposed Budget and CIP, and recommend any changes prior to considering both for adoption on June 9. The City Council did not direct any changes to the Proposed Budget or CIP at the workshop.
The FY 2025-26 Proposed Budget is balanced, maintains service levels, and incorporates the necessary funding for the first year of the Seven-Year Capital Improvement Plan. The Proposed Budget adheres to the City Council's Fiscal Strategies to ensure the City's fiscal health and advance the City Council's Strategic Plan. The City Manager's Budget Message is included with this report and provides a narrative overview of the factors and considerations included in the Proposed Budget. The message highlights significant factors impacting FY 2025-26 and identifies longer-term challenges facing the City and District.
Should the City Council desire to make changes to the Proposed Budget and/or CIP, those changes should be made by majority vote, following Robert's Rules of Order. Importantly, additions to the Proposed Budget must be cost-neutral, meaning additional ongoing expenditures must be paired with ongoing new revenues or ongoing savings/cuts. Additions to the CIP must identify a funding source and the specific project or projects to be eliminated/deferred.
BUDGET IMPACT
None.
LEGAL REVIEW
None required.
APPROVED BY: Peter Grant, City Manager

FY 2025-26 Proposed Budget Message
May 12, 2025
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council:
I am pleased to present the City of Cypress’ Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26 Proposed Budget and Capital Improvement Program (CIP). It is a prudent, practical spending plan that serves the community well and advances Cypress’ legacy of conservative and awardwinning financial management.
The City’s long-term financial position remains strong despite the uncertainty roiling markets and chaotic federal fiscal/economic policy. Recognizing the most likely short-term outcome of these conditions is upward pressure on costs and downward pressure on growth, the Proposed Budget presents a cautious, status quo approach while the FiveYear Forecast projects a structural deficit that limits options to absorb cost increases or enhance service levels.
It is important to note that the deficits projected in the Five-Year Forecast are driven by both economic conditions and the City’s annual $1.55 million contribution of current year General Fund operating revenue to infrastructure projects. Historically, City Councils have made this important annual investment in Cypress' high-quality infrastructure and public facilities recognizing that infrastructure is a service the City provides to the community.
Like any other City department or function, the City Council’s commitment to infrastructure as a service is funded with revenues that would otherwise be available for operations and budget balancing.
The $1.55 million infrastructure investment of current year General Fund revenues has not grown since it began approximately 30 years ago. If it had been indexed to Consumer Price Index increases, it would be about $3.25 million in 2025, and if it had grown at the same rate as construction costs, it would be well above $5 million. To account for construction costs increases of as much as 40% since 2020, the Proposed Budget includes a Decision Package recommending the annual, ongoing contribution of current year General Fund revenue to infrastructure investment increase from $1.55 million to $1.8 million. The recommendation underscores the City’s commitment to infrastructure as a service but only restores a fraction of the investment’s purchasing power.
The City has projected similar small deficits for the past several years that, fortunately, have proven to be on paper only and resolved when revenues exceeded sensible projections and/or some planned spending did not occur. Nonetheless, Cypress’ longterm financial future must remain a top consideration for the City Council. This is especially true if Cypress is to remain one of the few established cities in southern California that have not increased the local sales tax rate nor assess a utility user tax.
Our industry-leading financial management practices are a justifiable source of community pride. Cypress is the only city to be recognized twice by former State Senator (and Certified Public Accountant) John Moorlach for having the strongest unrestricted net (fiscal) position among Orange County cities. The City also continues to earn recognition from the Government Finance Officers Association for its Budget and Annual Comprehensive Financial Report and our online, resident-friendly Budget presentation reflects the City’s commitment to transparency.
BUDGET OVERVIEW
The combined Operating and Capital Budgets are $80.6 million, an increase of 41.5% from FY 2024-25, and are balanced.
The Operating Budget (all Funds) represents $44.6 million (55%) of the Budget, while capital improvement investments total $35.3 million (44%) and capital outlay makes up $0.7 million (1%) of expenditures.
The City is largely a service provider and over two-thirds of the Operating Budget are personnel costs, with the majority of that in the Police department.
Projected FY 2025-26 revenues are $54.5 million, which is nearly a two percent increase from FY 2024-25. While General Fund revenues exceed operating expenditures, the use of accumulated reserves to support capital investments balances the Budget. Overall, the $26.1 million fund balance decline for all City funds is largely the result of the use of accumulated moneys for capital improvement program investments (including a $27 million storm drain pump station replacement project).
Key assumptions used to develop the Budget include:
Reflects established City Council priorities and Fiscal Strategies Sales tax revenue declines are based on recent trends and estimates provided by our sales tax consultants
$457,500 of one-time General Fund set-asides fund one-time projects/programs Current service levels are maintained
Required CalPERS pension liability payments increase $794,000 City Council established reserves are maintained
$2.35 million of General Fund resources are contributed for current year capital projects
Negotiated and anticipated employee salary and benefit increases are incorporated General Fund Overview
The General Fund, the City’s largest fund and the one over which the City Council has the most discretion, is balanced with a modest projected decrease in total reserves.
General Fund Revenues
FY 2025-26 General Fund revenues are projected to increase $1,005,157 (2.4%) from the prior year and do not include any tax increases.
Economic uncertainty and inflation impacts make revenue projections difficult.
Accordingly, the Budget is built on conservative, but realistic projections that reflect the most up-to-date information available from the City’s sales tax consultant, property tax consultant, Cal Cities, the State Department of Finance, year-to-date receipts, and regional economic forecasts.
Cypress’ largest revenue source, property tax ($14.8 million), is projected to increase just over $0.8 million (5.8%) from the FY 2024-25 Budget. While Proposition 13 limits annual assessed value increases to protect homeowners, over time it has prevented property tax revenue from keeping pace with operating costs. However, the increase projected for FY 2025-26 is larger than in a typical year and is the result of significant assessed value growth due to ownership changes and new construction within the community.
Sales tax, the second largest revenue source ($12.6 million), is volatile, especially during periods of economic uncertainty. Sales tax receipts have not grown as much as forecasted in recent years and a $335,000 decline from the prior year is projected for FY 2025-26. This is a reminder that ongoing City operations cannot become overly reliant on sales tax because it can decline rapidly from one year to the next. As such, the Fiscal Strategies are designed to limit budgeted sales tax revenues that supports City operations to a four-year average. Sales tax receipts projected to exceed the four-year average are dedicated for one-time expenditure. For FY 2025-26, the sales tax baseline average is $13 million which exceeds the sales tax revenues included in the Budget, so no amounts are required to be allocated for one-time purposes.
Up until about three years ago, investment earnings received on cash balances, had not been a major revenue source in the General Fund for over a decade. However, unprecedented interest rate hikes occurred in 2022 and have held steady into 2025. While higher interest rates are generally viewed as economically risky with the potential for negative short-term financial impacts to residents, local businesses and the City’s revenue base, the higher interest paid on Treasury-backed securities generates significant additional revenues to the City. Over the last few years, interest rates on Treasury notes have gone from close to zero to well over four percent. As such, investment earnings in FY 2025-26 are budgeted at the same level as the prior year and nearly $2 million more than the FY 2022-23 adopted budget. In short, the growth in investment earnings has in large part been responsible for recent Budgets being balanced without relying on the significant use of reserves.
As with sales tax revenue, it is essential that City services do not rely on an unpredictable revenue source like investment earnings. In response, a practice was incorporated into the FY 2024-25 Budget which allocates a portion of General Fund interest earnings to onetime capital projects when earnings on cash balances are projected to exceed three percent. For FY 2025-26, interest earnings are budgeted at four percent and total $2.2 million which results in an additional one-time budget allocation of $550,000 for capital projects, which is the same amount incorporated into the adopted FY 2024-25 Budget.
It remains imperative the City Council act as diligent stewards of the community’s resources, confronting new financial challenges, diversifying the City’s revenue base, and containing ongoing costs to limit vulnerability during periods of volatility.
General Fund Expenditures
FY 2025-26 expenditures are $41.3 million, an increase of $1.4 million (3.5%) from FY 2024-25.
The personnel expenditure increases are due to many factors, with the biggest impacts related to cost-of-living adjustments for all employees and higher required annual CalPERS contributions for unfunded pension liabilities.
Maintenance and operation increases result from several factors, including the ongoing effects of inflation on nearly all contract services, as well as several items included in the Decision Packages. Decision Package are summarized in the following table.
Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Highlights
The CIP is the City’s long-term plan for investing in facilities and infrastructure. It is a key component of the Budget and of vital importance to the community. The CIP balances new projects, replacement of aged infrastructure, and life-extending maintenance.
Comprised of projects that often span multiple years and draw on many different funding sources, the Proposed FY 2025-26 CIP invests $35.3 million. The CIP also includes just over $1.6 million for Recreation and Park District projects.
Fund Balances and Reserves
The Proposed Budget reflects the City Council’s policy of fully funding capital outlay replacements and employee benefit and self-insurance liabilities. All liabilities (with the exception of the CalPERS pension and retiree medical liabilities) are fully-funded and the Internal Service Funds have sufficient cash to pay all the required annual contributions for pensions and retiree medical costs.
The City Council has established a Pension Trust to help offset unfunded CalPERS pension liabilities, with a goal of having sufficient Pension Trust assets to fully offset projected unfunded pension liabilities by 2030. To achieve this goal, a portion of any General Fund budget surplus is annually committed to additional trust investments.
Importantly, the Proposed Budget conforms to City Council policies requiring a 25% General Fund Contingency Reserve of $10.3 million and a 30% CIP Fund Cash-Flow Emergency Reserve of $12.4 million. Neither of these reserves is expected to be utilized in FY 2025-26.
CYPRESS RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICT
The Proposed Budget includes the Recreation and Park District (District), which is a distinct legal entity from the City although the City Council serves as the District’s Board of Directors. The City supports the District through fee-based general management; finance; human resources; information technology; and maintenance services.
District Revenues
District revenues are budgeted at $9.6 million, a slight increase of $42,673 (0.5%) from FY 2024-25. While overall revenues are flat, healthy revenue growth exists for property taxes and interest earned on cash balances, which are offset by a decrease of $415,878 for one-time State Proposition 68 grant for capital projects that was included in the FY 2024-25 Budget.
The District receives the majority of its recurring revenue (over 80%) from property tax, with fees for service (classes and facility rentals) historically being the other stable revenue source. The District’s dedicated property tax revenue remains a double-edged sword. It provides a consistent income stream with which the District delivers a high level of recreation services. However, under Proposition 13 property tax revenue growth tends to be less than both inflation and the longer-term growth rate of employee compensation due to pension costs and minimum wage increases. Fortunately, in times of economic uncertainty, property tax provides a reliable and steady cash flow and the District’s shortterm financial health is strong.
Personnel costs represent more than 50% of District operating costs accounting for reimbursements to the City for maintenance services. With its primary revenue source not expected to keep pace with inflationary expenditure growth in the coming years, the District must continue to take measures to ensure its long-term fiscal sustainability. In addition to regularly updating fees, the District must optimize operations; leverage revenue generating assets; and add non-property tax revenues.
Strengthening its financial condition is particularly important to enable the District to fund future facility and park improvements. Current revenues are sufficient to pay for operations and some capital projects (including the annual repayment associated with the $33.5 million reconstruction project at Arnold Cypress Park) but are insufficient to provide for future major rehabilitation.
District Expenditures
The District Budget is $10.9 million, which is $756,163 more than FY 2024-25 due to several factors. Personnel costs increase 5.0%, reflecting the ongoing impact of minimum wage increases, higher pension costs, cost-of-living salary increases, and several newer employees still moving through their salary ranges.
Maintenance and operations expenditures have increased when compared to FY 2024- 25, with the largest increase related to maintenance costs for the newly reconstructed Arnold Cypress Park. Additional impacts include, higher contract service costs brought on by inflation and the tight labor market, as well cost increases for materials and equipment.
District Capital Improvement Projects
The FY 2024-25 Amended Budget includes approximately $23 million for the reconstruction of Arnold Cypress Park. This project is funded by a loan from the City’s Infrastructure Fund and, starting next month, a payment of $2 million will be repaid annually on June 30th by the District using available property tax revenues.
Future capital projects will continue to be prioritized based on the facilities inventory and condition assessment and the availability of resources. With the large commitment of resources to Arnold Cypress Park, FY 2025-26 CIP projects are programmed at a fairly modest level, and are summarized and discussed in the FY 2025-26 Proposed Budget.
CONCLUSION
The FY 2025-26 Proposed Budget funds a strong municipal corporation and a remarkable group of employees. I am enormously proud of Team Cypress’ service to our community and have immense confidence in our ability to respond to challenges.
The City Council’s long-standing practice of strategically investing limited resources has Cypress well prepared for whatever lies ahead – assuming we continue our constrained approach to municipal operations and remain focused on core services. In the face of the great uncertainty that colors this Proposed Budget, it is worth remembering that Cypress emerged from the Great Recession and the COVID-19 Pandemic a stronger community and organization.
The FY 2025-26 Proposed Budget embodies the City Council’s dedication to careful and transparent financial management - a commitment that spans generations of Cypress City Councils. Astute financial management is the most important way we sustain the community’s success and political stability, retain skilled leadership, and partner with our employees.
I am deeply grateful to our department Directors and their teams for the unwavering commitment to deliver quality services to our community and to realize the City’s Mission Statement:
Cypress is a safe and welcoming community delivering excellent services for our residents, neighborhoods, and businesses.
