________________________________________________________________________________________________________ City Council Action:
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Ashley Jones, City Manager
Clem Brown, Assistant City Manager
Sarah Krietor, Administrative Services Manager
DATE: February 13, 2023
SUBJECT: 2023 City Council Goal Setting Workshop
REQUESTED ACTION/RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council: 1) Receive an update on the current Fiscal Year (FY) 2022-23 City Council Work Plan (Attachment A); 2) Review the list of new or continuing work plan items identified by staff for FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25 (Attachment B); 3) Review Council Wish List items (Attachment C); and provide direction to staff in preparation for the upcoming two-year budget process.
BACKGROUND:
At the beginning of each year, the City Council holds a public workshop to review and establish Council goals and priorities, which is the basis for the City’s annual work plan and aids City staff in identifying the necessary budgetary and staffing resources to accomplish those goals. In the coming months, staff will prepare the City’s next two-year budget (FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25) for the City Council’s consideration and adoption. As such, the 2023 City Council Goal Setting Workshop will focus on the City’s work plan for the next two fiscal years.
The City has continued to gradually recover financially from the COVID-19 pandemic, which allowed the City Council to approve an increased work plan during the FY 2022-23 Goal Setting Workshop that included modest increases to the City’s budget and staffing resources.
However, during this time, City operations and staff work on special projects have continued to be limited to providing essential services and supporting important work items consistent with the City’s values as discussed in more detail further in this report.
On January 9, 2023, the City Council provided direction to staff on the format for the 2023 Goals Setting Workshop. Consistent with past practice, the Workshop will provide the City Council with an opportunity to review the City’s current FY 2022-23 Work Plan, as well as the proposed work plan for FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25 in preparation for the upcoming twoyear budget process. 1 February 13, 2023 Item 01
City Council Agenda Report
2023 Goals Setting Workshop
February 13, 2023
City Financial Position
On March 6, 2023, the City Council will receive a comprehensive Mid-Year Financial Report for FY 2022-23. This report will show that the City’s overall finances are improving, and indicate that most revenues are coming in or exceeding pre-COVID levels. It will also show the increasing cost of expenditures based on fully restored operational services and rising costs due to inflation.
As part of the upcoming FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25 two-year budget process, staff will present an updated Reserve Policy that will include the recommended funding levels for each reserve. The Policy will also include a proposed schedule indicating when recommended funding levels would be achieved. Staff’s recommendations regarding the Reserve Policy and two-year budget will be presented to the Finance Committee for feedback prior to the City Council budget workshop.
Due to revenues coming in higher than projected and the City focusing on primarily providing critical/essential services during FY 2020-21 and FY 2021-22, the City has been fortunate to economically recover at a faster pace than anticipated. This in turn has allowed the City to replenish some reserves that were reduced due to the pandemic.
In the table below, the “Prior” column represents the projected reserves on June 30, 2023, if the City had not reduced its reserve contributions as a result of the pandemic. That amount is compared to the “Current” Council approved projected reserves on June 30, 2023, with the final column representing the difference. Staff may recommend additional reserve transfers during the FY 2022-23 Mid-Year Financial Report that will be presented to the City Council in March.
Projected Reserves at June 30, 2023
General Fund Reserve Prior Current Difference
Contingency % 25.00% 27.57% +2.57%
Self-Insurance $400,000 $371,553 ($28,447)
Pension $3,365,194 $2,900,000 ($465,194)
Leave Liability $100,000 $100,000 -
Equipment Replacement $1,000,000 $985,400 ($14,600)
Housing Reserve Fund $500,000 $500,000 -
Totals $5,365,194 $4,856,953 ($508,241)
City Operations
Most of the City’s non-management/professional staff spend 100% of their time on City operations. And, generally the City’s management/professional level staff spend about 80% of their time (or more depending on the position) administering the daily operations of the City, leaving about 20% of their time available to work on discretionary programs, special projects, and CIP projects. The exception being the City’s Principal Engineer, Public Works Project Manager II, and Principal Long-Range Planner, whose positions are primarily dedicated to managing CIP and special projects. To provide context on how the City spends the majority of its staff resources on day-to-day operations, Attachment D includes a summary 2 February 13, 2023 Item 01
City Council Agenda Report
2023 Goals Setting Workshop
February 13, 2023
of the duties and responsibilities for each department. All City departments have heavy operational responsibilities and provide critical services to the community. It is important to note that some operational items, such as administering elections or negotiating labor contracts and leases for use of public property, require significant staff time but are not included on the Goals & Priorities Work Plan because they are cyclical and non-discretionary.
Staffing Capacity Nexus to City Council Work Plan and Goals The City benefits greatly from a small team of dedicated and well-qualified employees who work diligently to provide the community with a high level of service through daily operations, while completing complex special and CIP projects to move Del Mar forward and achieve City Council goals. City staff are currently working at maximum capacity to meet the City’s operational needs and complete Council identified priority projects on schedule. As such, there is very little opportunity to expand the City’s work plan beyond what is included on the list of identified work items provided as Attachment A, unless additional staffing resources are provided or existing work plan items are deferred.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
To facilitate the workshop and help guide the City Council’s establishment of goals and priorities for the next two fiscal years, staff prepared the following resources:
1. List and status update for current FY 2022-23 Work Plan items that have or will be completed by the end of the fiscal year (Attachment A);
2. Identified work plan items for FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25 (Attachment B);
3. An updated City Council “Wish List” (Attachment C); and
4. Overview/Summary of City’s operations by department (Attachment D).
List and Status Update for Current FY 2022-23 Work Plan Items Given the City is nearing the end of the current budget cycle and fiscal year, staff prepared a summary table (Attachment A) showing FY 2022-23 Work Plan items that have or will be completed prior to June 30, 2023. Multi-year projects will be carried over to the proposed work plan for the upcoming two fiscal years. In total, staff completed, or are on track to complete, 44 significant work items by the end of the current fiscal year. This is quite an achievement for the City Council and staff given that the City is still recovering financially from the COVID-19 pandemic and had unexpected vacancies in several keys positions over the past year.
Identified Work Plan Items FY 2023-24 and 2024-25
Multi-year items from the FY 2022-23 Work Plan that will continue into the next budget cycle have been included on the proposed FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25 Work Plan (Attachment B), which includes a description and status for each item. The proposed Work Plan is organized by the City’s established tiered priority system as follows: Tier 1 (essential services); Tier 2 (important items that support City operations/values); and Tier 3 (nonessential work items that could be differed or eliminated). 3 February 13, 2023 Item 01
City Council Agenda Report
2023 Goals Setting Workshop
February 13, 2023
There are several work plan items that the City Council has prioritized in recent years that will continue to be a big focus for the City in the coming years including implementation of the City’s Housing Element, relocation of the tracks off the Del Mar Bluffs, undergrounding of power lines throughout the City, and development of new regulations for Short Term Rentals.
These projects alone will require a lot of time and attention from staff and the City’s elected leaders.
While staff works diligently to identify all work plan items for City Council consideration during the budget development process, new important projects arise throughout the year due to various circumstances such as City Council direction, legislative changes, or unforeseen challenges and/or emergencies. Accordingly, the current and proposed City Work Plan includes several work plan items identified by staff and/or requested by the community.
Council-Identified Interests and Potential Work Plan Items Periodically, Councilmembers identify potential projects for the City Council to consider adding to existing or future work plans. A status update for the 2022 Council Wish List items and newly requested items for consideration in 2023 are included as Attachment C.
Next Steps
Staff will use the feedback and direction provided by the City Council during the workshop to solidify the City Council’s goals and priorities and the City Work Plan for the next two fiscal years, which will be used for development of the proposed FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25 Operating and Capital Budget. This information will also be used to evaluate the proposed City advisory committee work plans in preparation for the City Council’s review and approval of the committee work plans for the coming fiscal year in March 2023.

Following discussion at the 2022 Goals and Priorities Workshop, Council consensus was not to pursue the following items further at that time:
• Improve NCTD Parking lot at Viewpoint and Paint NCTD Building on JDB • Civic Sparks Fellow to help with Climate Action Plan/Sustainability Work Plan Items • Ghost Gun Prohibition
• Conduct a Community Survey (last completed in 2015)
• Reconsideration of expedited design of Riverpath Phase 3 (Council previously considered on 11/15 & 11/19)
• Policy on use of outside lawyer

City Council Wish List Items
3 of 3
2023 Proposed Council Wish List Items
• Climate Action Plan (CAP) Monitoring. Staff prepared a CAP update in 2020, but nothing has been done since then. SANDAG funded the creation of an Excel worksheet “tool” to monitor our CAP progress for GHG reductions. It would be nice to have someone do an annual update with that tool or just go through the CAP and see what our progress is on each goal or each topic since the goals are so outdated. CAP monitoring is on the SAC priority list.
• Funding for grant writing services. Suggestion to consider hiring a consultant, (or amending Townsend's contract if they can do it) specifically to chase down the various grant funds that are available to Del Mar for: housing, rental assistance, reclaimed water and purple pipe, electric and solar support, rail relocation, EV's, battery storage, CDM bridge, and more.
• Purple pipe expansion. Suggestion to consider a plan to bring reclaimed water further into Del Mar. This is likely an expensive, and multi-year project. But, let's at least plan it out.
• Shores Park Community Garden. For years, Shores Park planning has been on hold, and it could be years more. Suggestion to do something in the interim to benefit the community. This could be done using community volunteers and donated funding.
Community members and Winston school students could be invited to participate. • Shore Park Planning. Suggestion to keep a goal on the list with a target time frame when we think we will be able to restart park planning. • Create a Vision 2050 for the City
