AGENDA ITEM REPORT
To: City Council
Date: March 5, 2024
Department: Code & Cannabis Compliance
Prepared by: Christina Newsom, Compliance Director
Subject: Ordinance for Cannabis Regulatory Permit Renewals RECOMMENDATION:
Introduce for first reading and read by title only: "An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Desert Hot Springs, California, adding to Reserved Section 5.50.180 and amending Section 5.50.190 and adding Section 5.50.195 to Chapter 5.50 "Cannabis Businesses" of Title 5 "Business Licenses and Regulations" of the Desert Hot Springs Municipal Code in order to update Cannabis Regulatory Permit Regulations."
BACKGROUND:
Chapter 5.50 of the Desert Hot Springs Municipal Code requires every cannabis facility to obtain a regulatory permit to operate within the City. Historically, the City of Desert Hot Springs Cannabis Compliance Division has conducted regulatory permit audits annually of permit submittal requirements to determine compliance. These audits require numerous staff hours and dedicated personnel to ensure cannabis facility records are current, accurate, and complete. Further, staff conducts investigations into cannabis facility ownership, rosters, and entity status to ensure adherence to background and ownership regulations.
Implementing a requirement for an annual cannabis regulatory permit renewal will safeguard that cannabis facilities remain compliant throughout the life of their operation. Further, it will ensure that cannabis facilities provide current documentation to staff on an annual basis. Moreover, if a facility fails to renew a permit the City will have the authority to terminate the regulatory permit and require that the facility cease operations.
DISCUSSION:
If approved the proposed ordinance would:
Establish that cannabis regulatory permits be valid for one year. Require that cannabis facilities submit regulatory permit renewal applications and fees no earlier than sixty (60) calendar days but no later than 30 days before the expiration of the permit.
Item Number: 3.
SR-24-050
Establish that the failure to renew a regulatory permit shall result in the permit being terminated. In the event that a regulatory permit is terminated, the operator must cease all operations as a cannabis facility.
Establish that cannabis retail facilities are exempt from the one-year regulatory permit term and the annual renewal permit requirements.

AGENDA ITEM REPORT
To: City Council
Date: March 5, 2024
Department: Administrative Services
Prepared by: Geoffrey Buchheim, Administrative Services Director Subject: Mid-Year Budget Adjustments for the 2023-2024 Fiscal Year RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council approving the mid-year downward budget adjustments for the 2023-2024 Fiscal Year.
BACKGROUND:
During the regular course of business, adjustments to the budget become necessary as new information for more accurate estimates become available. Staff is able to make changes to the forecasted revenues based on new information that is received during the fiscal year. In addition, as actual changes in programs occur, such as changes in staff positions, and new or altered demands for contracted services, expenditure forecasts can be made more accurate. These adjustments allow for the City to continue daily operations, on-going repairs, maintenance, and improvements to the City’s public facilities and to provide appropriations for unanticipated expenses.
The City’s Finance Staff worked in cooperation with staff from other City departments to determine the changes in their needs for FY 2023-2024. The items presented here are the adjustments for FY2023-2024 for the City Council’s review. As to date, these adjustments reflect staffing changes, other operational changes, and improvement projects, in the context of declining local revenue DISCUSSION:
-Consolidated General Fund: Revenue Reduction
The Consolidated General Fund consists of three funds used to account for virtually all required services funded predominantly with discretionary revenue sources that help to properly maintain clean, safe, well-lit city streets and parks and other essential core City services like emergency response, roads, police, and addressing homelessness. Those funds are as follows:
General Fund (Fund 100)
Emergency Reserve Fund (Fund 212)
Public Safety Fund (Fund 245)
The summary of the mid-year budget adjustments for FY2023-2024 in the Consolidated General Fund are as follows:
Item Number: 4.
SR-24-053
Consolidated General Fund FY2023-2024 Mid-Year Adjustments Change in Revenues $188,272 decrease
Change in Expenses $1,397,244 increase
Revenues over Expenditures ($1,585,516)
The cannabis industry has been experiencing difficulty for the last several years. This has led to a reduction in the amount of cannabis tax collected by the City. In an effort to help ease the burden on the cannabis industry, the City has reduced the cultivation tax to $5.75 per square foot and redefined cultivation space to canopy space. This has resulted in a $1.9 million reduction in budgeted revenues for FY23-24. However, this reduction is partially offset by anticipated increases in other revenues such as Transient Occupancy Tax, Utility Users Tax, Property Taxes, and grant funding. These changes have resulted in a $188,272 decrease in budgeted revenues.
Increased Service Need Strains Current Budget
At the same time, the City is experiencing increases in annual expenditures, in order to continue providing the core services residents have told us are important to them, including 911 emergency response, addressing homelessness, and maintaining well-lit city streets and public places. In order to provide a plan for the unhoused, the City acquired a building on Hacienda and contracted with Martha’s Kitchen to open the HUB. The contract for the operations of the center will be $700,000 for FY23-24. With the transfer of the properties from the Coachella Valley Humane Society, the City has incurred additional maintenance costs. There is also the one-time purchase of over $350,000 for the old library building from the County. After Storm Hillary in August 2023, the City needed to spend over $1 million for clean up of storm debris. These items and some operations costs increases have significantly increased the budgeted expenditures for the Consolidated General Fund. In order to help offset these increases, the City has implemented some cost-savings measures. Staff have reduced spending in supplies, travel, and training. The City has also either reduced or terminated contract services for compliance, administration, and maintenance. In addition, the City has eliminated 12 full and part-time positions. Even with these cost-cutting measures put in place, City staff are still looking for other areas to save. These measures have resulted in an increase of $1,397,244 in budgeted expenditures for FY23-24.
Continuing Conditions Make Upcoming Budget Years More Challenging Since the above cost reductions have taken place during the latter part of the fiscal year, only a smaller portion is reflected in these budget adjustments. The full effect of these measures will be reflected in FY2024-2025. That is why staff is requesting the use of $1,549,914 of reserves for FY2023-2024.

FISCAL IMPACT:
Reserve Funds to Temporarily Mitigate over $1 Million Budget Shortfall For FY 2023-2024, these adjustments will change the projected revenues and expenditures in the Consolidated General Fund to be as follows:
Consolidated General Fund FY2023-2024 Amended Budget
Revenues $32,781,196
Expenses 34,331,110
Estimated Deficit ($1,549,914)
The above estimated for the Consolidated General Fund includes the use of fund balance in the amount of $352,000 for one-time purchase of the old library building already approved by Council.
With these budget changes, the Consolidated General Fund fund balance at 6/30/2024 is estimated to be over $8.4 million. The designations of that estimated fund balance as per the City’s reserve policy are as follows:
Fund Balance Category Amount Notes
Reserve for capital use $420,000 5% of reserves per policy Natural or Fiscal Emergency
Reserve $1,260,000 15% of reserves per policy
Cannabis Emergency Reserve $5,100.000 Annual deposit of 25% of Item Number: 4.
SR-24-053
cannabis tax revenues per
resolution
Unrestricted $1,620,000 Assigned to operations
Total $8,400,000
The Governmental Finance Officers Association recommends that appropriate level for unrestricted fund balance should be equal to two months of regular general fund operating expenditures. With an over $34 million annual expense, the recommended amount of unrestricted fund balance would be over $5.6 million (34/12*2). The estimated $1.6 million unrestricted fund balance at 6/30/2024 is significantly below that threshold, however, the previously mentioned cost saving measures will assist in increasing the unrestricted fund balance over the next several years.

Date: March 5, 2024
Department: City Manager
Prepared by: Daniel Porras, Assistant City Manager
Subject: Federal Appropriations Requests
RECOMMENDATION:
Provide staff policy direction as to the City Council's priorities for the upcoming appropriations requests.
BACKGROUND:
According to Senate Rule XLIV, Congressionally Directed Spending (CDS) is a provision “included primarily at the request of a Senator providing, authorizing, or recommending a specific amount of discretionary budget authority, credit authority, or other spending authority for a contract, loan, loan guarantee, grant, loan authority or other expenditure with or to an entity, or targeted to a specific State, location or Congressional district, other than through a statutory or administrative formuladriven or competitive award process.” DISCUSSION:
Senator Laphonza Butler released her fiscal year 2025 appropriations requests for funding through the Congressionally Direct Spending (CDS)/Earmark. CDS is funding requested for a specific project in a specific location. In order to be eligible to receive any funding, local agencies and non-profit organizations must submit appropriation requests to the Senator for consideration. The appropriations request deadline to submit is Tuesday March 12th, 2024.
Additionally, Senator Padilla's fiscal year 2025 appropriations request for funding is expected to be released in the next few weeks. After the appropriations requests are released local agencies and non-profit organizations must submit appropriation requests to the Senator for consideration.
Finally, Congressman Dr. Raul Ruiz fiscal year 2025 appropriations request for funding is expected to be released in the next few weeks. After the appropriations request is released, local agencies and non-profit organizations must submit appropriation requests to the Congressman for consideration. In 2021, the City submitted and was successfully awarded $2.5 Million for the construction of the Indian Canyon Drive crossing for the DHS Bridges over Water Crossing Project through Congressman Raul Ruiz Earmark for fiscal year 2022.
For all of these upcoming appropriations requests, the City would need to submit all required forms with details on the funding request, with a project description, project justification, location, total costs, and other details. The City may submit multiple funding requests but must identify each request by Item Number: 5.
SR-24-056
priority. The funding request may be for projects and/or programs depending on the appropriations subcommittee requirements.
In order to be prepared to submit appropriations requests and meet submittal deadlines, Staff is proposing the following projects be considered and a priority be set by City Council:
1. Funding in the amount of $2.5 Million, for the ongoing daily operations and/or specific aspects of the operation of The HUB, the City’s homeless access center.
2. Funding in the amount of $2.5 Million, for the design and construction of the Indian Canyon Dr Crossing Improvements for the DHS Bridges over Water Crossing Project. The project consists of new low water crossings at Indian Canyon and Mission Lakes Blvd, and improvements to the box culvert low water crossing at Indian Canyon at Mission Creek, to allow for safe and open accessibility through Indian Canyon during rain events. This project will mitigate flooding and help maintain Indian Canyon open and accessible.
Project/Program details will be provided based on the appropriation requests requirements.

Subject: Second Reading and Adoption of An Ordinance to Lower Cannabis Cultivation Taxes
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve Second Reading, read by title only and adopt: "An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Desert Hot Springs, California, amending Chapters 3.33 (Titled "Marijuana Cultivation Tax" and
3.35 (Titled "Medical Marijuana Cultivation Tax") to amend Sections 3.33.005 (Titled "Imposition of Tax") and 3.35.005 (Titled "Imposition of Tax") to lower recreational and medical cultivation taxes of the Desert Hot Springs Municipal Code ("DHSMC").
BACKGROUND:
The Ordinance (Exhibit 2) was introduced and approved for first reading by the City Council on February 20, 2024.
The ordinance shall take effect thirty (30) days after its second reading.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The ordinance will reduce the Cannabis Cultivation Tax from $10.20 per square foot to $5.75 per square foot of space utilized in connection with the cultivation of recreational and medical marijuana.
The reduction of the Cannabis Cultivation Tax to $5.75 per square foot would result in the following reduction of budgeted revenues (based on 440,442 square feet of City defined canopy space):
FY 23-24: $1,917,759 (Not actual revenue reduction, but reduction based on $10.20) FY24-25: $2,303,146 (Not actual revenue reduction, but reduction based on $10.20) The above estimate does not include any new anticipated cultivation space opening in the future.
Actual revenues received in Fiscal '23 and estimated '24 are in line with the adjustment to $5.75, which is approximately $2.5M.

Subject: An Ordinance to Lower Cannabis Cultivation Taxes RECOMMENDATION:
Introduce for First Reading and read by title only: "An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Desert Hot Springs, California, amending Chapters 3.33 (Titled "Marijuana Cultivation Tax" and 3.35 (Titled "Medical Marijuana Cultivation Tax") to amend Sections 3.33.005 (Titled "Imposition of Tax") and 3.35.005 (Titled "Imposition of Tax") to lower recreational and medical cultivation taxes of the Desert Hot Springs Municipal Code ("DHSMC").
BACKGROUND:
In 2023 the City Council made a series of temporary tax adjustments in response to prevailing economic conditions and industry feedback. These strategic decisions aim to sustain the viability of the cannabis industry within our community while also considering the fiscal health of the City. The Council continued to hear challenges from the industry and instructed staff again to come back with further analysis and recommendations. On February 7, 2024, the City Council approved a recommendation to reduce the cannabis cultivation tax from $10.20 per square foot to $5.75 per square foot.
Pursuant to Desert Hot Springs Municipal Code (DHSMC) Section 3.35.050 an annual adjustment based on the Consumer Price Index shall be imposed on cultivation tax. DHSMC Chapter 3.33.005 and Chapter 3.35 reflect the cannabis cultivation tax rates of $10 as they were adopted prior to the annual CPI adjustment.
DISCUSSION:
The proposed ordinance will reduce the cannabis cultivation tax from $10.20 per square foot to $5.75 per square foot of space utilized in connection with the cultivation of recreational and medical marijuana.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The reduction of the Cannabis Cultivation Tax to $5.75 per square foot would result in the following reduction of budgeted revenues (based on 440,442 square feet of City defined canopy space):
