SUBJECT:

Amendments to City’s Noise Ordinance (PLPA-004348-2026) Prepared by: Jennifer Byous, Planning Manager

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

On May 19, 2026 the City Council considered City-initiated amendments to Dublin Municipal Code Chapter 5.28 (Noise). The proposed amendments update the Noise Ordinance to establish time-based restrictions on landscape equipment and amplified sound in residential areas while retaining the general nuisance standard for enforcement. The City Council waived the first reading and introduced the ordinance. The City Council is now requested to waive the second reading and adopt the proposed Ordinance.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Waive the second reading and adopt the Ordinance Approving Amendments to Dublin Municipal Code Chapter 5.28 (Noise).

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

None.

DESCRIPTION:

Background
Noise is regulated by Dublin Municipal Code Chapter 5.28 (Noise), which recognizes that excessive or disruptive noise can adversely affect the quality of life and well-being of residents.

The Ordinance is intended to protect public health, safety, comfort, and welfare by limiting noise that is loud, unnecessary, unnatural, unusual, or habitual. The current regulations rely on a nuisance-based framework that evaluates noise subjectively based on factors such as intensity, duration, location, time of day, and its impact on a reasonable person.

On May 19, 2026, the City Council waived the first reading and introduced the Ordinance 423

Page 2 of 2 ends

approving the proposed Noise Ordinance Amendments included as Attachment 1. The May 19, 2026 City Council Staff Report is included as Attachment 2.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:

The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), together with State Guidelines and City of Dublin CEQA Guidelines and Procedures require that certain projects be reviewed for environmental impacts and that environmental documents be prepared. The proposed Amendments are exempt from the requirements of CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the amendments will have a significant effect on the environment and are not subject to CEQA review.

STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:

None.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL

OF THE CITY OF DUBLIN

APPROVING AMENDMENTS TO DUBLIN MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTER 5.28 (NOISE) (PLPA-004348-2026)

WHEREAS, the City occasionally initiates amendments to the Dublin Municipal Code to clarify, add, or amend certain provisions that are relevant to changes occurring in the community; and

WHEREAS, the City initiated amendments to Dublin Municipal Code Chapter 5.28 to strengthen the noise regulations in residential areas related to landscape equipment and amplified noise; and

WHEREAS, proper notice of said hearing was given in all respects as required by law; and

WHEREAS, the City Council did hear and consider all said reports, recommendations, and testimony set forth above and used its independent judgement to evaluate the amendment; and

WHEREAS, the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), together with the State Guidelines and City of Dublin CEQA Guidelines and Procedures require that certain projects be reviewed for environmental impacts and that environmental documents be prepared. The City Council finds that the Project is exempt from the requirements of CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) as the Project would not result in any physical changes and it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the Project would have a significant effect on the environment and is not subject to CEQA review.

NOW, THEREFORE, The City Council of the City of Dublin does ordain as follows:

Section 1. Amendment to Chapter 5.28. Dublin Municipal Code Chapter 5.28 is replaced in its entirety as follows:

FROM: Colleen Tribby, City Manager
SUBJECT: Amendments to the City’s Noise Ordinance (PLPA-004348-2026) Prepared by: Jennifer Byous, Planning Manager
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The City Council will consider City-initiated amendments to Dublin Municipal Code Chapter

5.28 (Noise). The proposed amendments update the noise ordinance to establish time-based restrictions on landscape equipment and amplified sound in residential areas while retaining the general nuisance standard for enforcement. The City Council will also consider an exemption from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Conduct the public hearing, deliberate, waive the reading and introduce an Ordinance Approving Amendments to Dublin Municipal Code Chapter 5.28 (Noise).

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

None.

DESCRIPTION:

Background
Noise is regulated by Dublin Municipal Code Chapter 5.28 (Noise), which recognizes that excessive or disruptive noise can adversely affect the quality of life and well-being of residents.

On December 2, 2025 City Council held a public hearing to consider amendments allowing outdoor live entertainment in Downtown Dublin. During that discussion, the City Council Attachment 2
428

Page 2 of 3 ends

expressed concern regarding the subjectivity of the City’s existing noise regulations and perceived challenges this creates for consistent enforcement. The City Council directed Staff to return with an evaluation of the City’s noise regulations and identify options to reduce subjectivity without establishing strict decibel limits.

On February 3, 2026 City Council reviewed potential amendments presented by Staff, including proposed time-based restrictions for residential areas related to landscape equipment and amplified noise/parties. By consensus, the City Council directed Staff to prepare ordinance amendments incorporating these concepts, with modifications to allow landscape equipment use on weekends between 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m., and to remove references to “parties” from the amplified noise provisions.

Analysis
The proposed amendments to the Noise Ordinance establish objective, time-based restrictions for specific noise-generating activities in residential zoning districts. The Ordinance would prohibit the use of landscape equipment (e.g., lawn mowers, leaf blowers, edgers) Monday through Friday between 8:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m., and Saturday through Sunday between 8:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. In addition, amplified noise (e.g., amplifiers, stereos, speakers, musical instruments, or similar sound-producing devices) would be prohibited, Sunday through Thursday between 8:00 p.m. and 10:00 a.m., and Friday through Saturday between 10:00 p.m. and 10:00 a.m.

The amendments keep the nuisance framework and add clear time-based limits on landscape equipment and amplified sound in residential areas as directed by the City Council. The proposed amendments also maintain the flexibility of the Noise Ordinance by preserving the broader nuisance standard to address noise impacts outside of the specified activities or timeframes. Focusing these regulations on residential areas aligns with common practices in comparable jurisdictions, resulting in a balanced approach.

A draft ordinance adopting these amendments to the Noise Ordinance is included as Attachment 1. A redline version of the proposed amendments to the Noise Ordinance, where underlined text is proposed to be added and text with a strikethrough is proposed to be deleted, is included as Attachment 2.

First Reading of Ordinance Amending Dublin Municipal Code Sections

2.08.020 and 2.08.040 and Providing for an Increase in Salary for City Councilmembers and a Decrease in Salary for the Mayor
Prepared by: Marsha Moore, MMC, City Clerk

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The City Council will consider introducing an ordinance revising the Dublin Municipal Code to provide for an adjustment to the City Council salary and to the additional Mayor salary. The adjustments would become operative following certification of the November 2026 General Municipal Election.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Waive the reading and introduce an Ordinance Amending Dublin Municipal Code Sections

2.08.020 and 2.08.040 to Change the Salary for Members of the City Council and the Additional Salary for the Mayor After New Terms of Office Start After the November 2026 General Municipal Election.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Sufficient funds are included in the Fiscal Year 2026-27 and 2027-28 budgets.

DESCRIPTION:

Government Code Section (GC) 36516 allows a general law city to provide a salary to City Councilmembers, and an increase in compensation is allowed by ordinance. Additionally, Government Code Section 36516.1 provides that a directly elected Mayor may be compensated in addition to that compensation received as a Councilmember. The salary for City Councilmembers is set in the Dublin Municipal Code Section 2.08.020, and the Mayor’s salary is set in Section 2.08.040.

431

Page 2 of 2 ends

At the May 19, 2026 meeting, the City Council received a report and by motion approved an increase in the City Councilmember salary by four percent per year since the last adjustment in December 2024 and a decrease in the Mayor’s additional salary to $400 per month. The attached ordinance (Attachment 1) reflects that and sets the City Councilmembers’ salary at $1,730.56 per month and the Mayor’s additional salary at $400 per month.

Government Code section 36516.5 provides that changes in council salaries cannot be made until after a new council term begins following an election. A 1997 California Attorney General Opinion provides that the Mayor salary cannot be decreased during the Mayor's term of office.

In accordance with state law, the changes in Councilmember salaries and the additional Mayor salary would not be effective until the new terms of office begin following the November 2026 election.

Subject-
Agenda Item 5.5 June 2, 2026
Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers,

The perplexing item on your consent calendar (Item 5.5) regarding City Council salary increases shows misplaced priorities.

It is patently unfair that the Council majority decides to give itself a pay raise at the same time considering increasing a huge tax burden on the business community. The optics of enriching yourself at the same time punishing income producing businesses is not a good one. To add to the unfairness, voting to cut the salary of the mayor, at the same time increasing your own, smacks of hypocrisy.

The mayor of all cities, including Dublin, has a larger workload in the community because they are called upon by constituents, business leaders and governmental peers to represent and speak for their city on a continual basis. It is just the way it is. To imply that the mayor does not work that hard and must be penalized with reduced pay is inaccurate and spiteful.

I would ask that the City Council rethink this direction of increasing pay of City Council and reducing the pay of the mayor. The prudent path would be to freeze City Council and Mayor salaries at current levels, until the real or imagined fiscal issues have passed.

Regards,
Guy Houston
Mayor, City of Dublin 1994-2001

SUBJECT:

Proposed Budget for Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027-28
Prepared by: Jay Baksa, Finance Director

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The City Council will review the Proposed Budget and forecast covering two fiscal years and consider adoption of a Fiscal Year 2026-27 Budget.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Conduct the public hearing, deliberate, and adopt the Resolution Approving a Budget for the City of Dublin for Fiscal Year 2026-27 and provide direction on additional budget requests that have been made since the Preliminary Budget presentation.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The Proposed Budget includes citywide revenues of $173.1 million in Fiscal Year 2026-27 and $177.2 million in Fiscal Year 2027-28 (includes both governmental and internal service funds).

Expenditure proposals total $148.3 million and $151.5 million in Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027-28, respectively. The total citywide fund balance is projected at $403.7 million and $417.2 million in Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027-28, respectively.

The Proposed General Fund Budget is balanced in both years, with a projected addition to reserves (after transfers out) of $4.8 million in the first year, and $1.1 million in the second year.

All fund balances are projected to remain positive, with the exception of certain grant funds and the Public Facilities Fee Fund. Grant funds may periodically reflect negative balances due to the timing of reimbursement payments, as expenditures are incurred prior to reimbursement being received. The Public Facilities Fee Fund may also reflect negative balances due to timing differences between the collection of development impact fees and the construction of parks and public facilities funded by those revenues.

DESCRIPTION:

Background
On April 21, 2026, the City Council received a presentation on the Preliminary Budget for the upcoming two fiscal years. The April Staff Report is provided as Attachment 4.

At that time, Staff noted that the City had not yet received the budget proposal from the Alameda County Sheriff's Office (ACSO) for police services. Staff also indicated that recently received property tax information from the Alameda County Assessor's Office would negatively impact final property tax numbers.

Since the Preliminary Budget presentation, the City has received ACSO’s proposal and Staff have continued to work with the City's property tax consultants to further refine property tax revenue projections. In addition, the City received updated cost information from the Alameda County Fire Department (ACFD), and Staff refined Internal Service Fund cost allocations. This Staff Report discusses those updates and provides tables illustrating the most substantial changes from the information provided in April.

In addition, the City has received several new budget requests requiring City Council direction.

These items have not been incorporated into the Proposed Budget and are presented later in this report for Council consideration.

Changes Since the Preliminary Budget Presentation

Property Tax
FY 2026-27 – Decrease of $529,200
FY 2027-28 – Decrease of $427,824

During the Preliminary Budget presentation, Staff noted that the Alameda County Assessor’s Office had granted Proposition 8 reductions to more properties than originally anticipated, lowering the City’s projected assessed valuation and projected property tax revenues.

After working with the County Assessor’s Office and the City’s property tax consultants, Staff now anticipate that property tax revenues will be reduced by $529,200 in Fiscal Year (FY) 2026-27 and $427,824 in FY 2027-28 from the Preliminary Budget figures, as shown in Table

1. The County tax roll is not yet final and additional adjustments may occur. Staff will continue to monitor and update the City Council as new information becomes available.

Change from Prior Year - $1,455,325 $3,516,191

ACFD Fire Contract
FY 2026-27 – Increase of $49,820
FY 2027-28 – Increase of $52,311

ACFD recently notified the City that the County updated its internal service rates, resulting in charges that are slightly higher than those originally included in the ACFD budget proposal.

Overall, the revised rates increase projected ACFD services costs by approximately $49,820 in FY 2026-27 and $52,311 in FY 2027-28.

ACSO Contract (Dublin Police Services)
FY 2026-27 – Decrease of $1,493,926
FY 2027-28 – Decrease of $3,363,776

The Preliminary Budget assumed a 6.1 percent annual growth in Dublin Police Services costs, equating to an increase of $1.79 million in FY 2026-27 and $1.85 million in FY 2027-28. Since that time the City has received ACSO’s budget proposal, which is significantly less than originally projected, as shown in Table 2.

Proposed Budget (June) $29,040,073 $29,333,739 $29,311,949 Difference - ($1,493,926) ($3,363,776)
Change from Prior Year - $293,666 ($21,790)

Compared to the amounts included in the Preliminary Budget, the Proposed Budget results in a reduction of $1.49 million in FY 2026-27 and $3.36 million in FY 2027-28. The primary factor contributing to the lower-than-anticipated costs is ACSO’s payoff of its pension obligation bonds, which significantly reduced retirement-related expenses.

It’s worth noting that the slight FY 2027-28 decrease compared to FY 2026-27 reflects that FY 2026-27 contains an extra pay period; FY 2027-28 returns to the standard 26-pay-period cycle. 478

Page 4 of 6 ends

Internal Service Fund Charges
FY 2026-27 – No change
FY 2027-28 – Decrease of $62,743

During projection of software costs for FY 2027-28, Staff identified modest savings of $62,743 from prepayment of certain software agreements in prior years.

Animal Shelter Services
As noted in the Preliminary Budget presentation, the City of Livermore has withdrawn from the Alameda County Animal Control Shelter services agreement, which is expected to increase Dublin's share of regional costs. Alameda County is preparing a proposal for remaining partner agencies on the future service structure. The City has not yet received that proposal, but the County's most recent budget update for Animal Control and Shelter services aligns with the City's projected amounts and assumes no change to current operations. Staff will return with an update and a budget change, if necessary, as further details become available.

Additional Requests for Consideration
Since the Preliminary Budget presentation, the following requests were received, and Staff is seeking City Council direction on whether to incorporate them into the Budget.

Dublin Unified School District (DUSD) - Additional City-Funded Crossing Guards FY 2026-27 - $23,100 per crossing guard
FY 2027-28 - $24,055 per crossing guard

At the May 7, 2026 City-DUSD Liaison Committee meeting, DUSD requested that the City fund two additional crossing guard positions to be assigned at the new Shamrock Hills TK-8 school in the Boulevard community. The City’s contract with All City Management Services Inc. currently provides for the equivalent of 18 crossing guards in Dublin, with the City funding 14 and DUSD funding four. This allocation includes three additional guards that the City agreed to fund at DUSD’s request last July.

Staff believes that it would be reasonable for the City to fund one new guard at Shamrock Hills and ask DUSD to either fund the second guard or evaluate whether there is a guard that could be shifted from another location.

Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
FY 2026-27 - Increase of $42,000
FY 2027-28 - $0

The Human Services Grants expenditures in the Proposed Budget reflect the two-year cycle recommended by the Human Services Commission on March 27, 2025, and approved by the City Council on May 6, 2025. The approved funding level assumed Dublin would continue to receive supplemental CDBG funds through the Alameda County Urban County CDBG Program, in addition to its annual base allocation. For several years, the City has successfully requested and received these previously unallocated funds to support thet Human Services 479

Grant Program.

For FY 2026-27, the City's request for supplemental funds was denied, as participating jurisdictions are beginning to draw down their own allocations. As a result, Dublin will receive only its annual base allocation, creating an estimated $42,000 shortfall in the Human Services Grant Program. To preserve the funding level previously approved by the City Council, Staff recommends a one-time General Fund contribution to offset the FY 2026-27 gap. Staff will return in summer 2026 to discuss long-term funding strategies for the program.

CITY MANAGER TRANSMITTAL LETTER
June 2, 2026
Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers:

I hereby submit to you the City of Dublin’s Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027-28 Budget, covering the beginning of a new two-year budget cycle.

Since the City’s rebound from the Great Recession, Dublin’s budget cycle has been guided by three primary goals during this period of sustained economic growth: fully funding current City operations, continuing to set aside reserves for future capital projects, and maintaining adequate operating reserves over the long term. Through disciplined financial planning and conservative budgeting, the City has successfully advanced these goals. This is a key reason Dublin has remained financially strong during periods of uncertainty, while many jurisdictions, including some in this region, have faced difficult budget decisions.

While the City continues to benefit from development activity, the pace of new development is expected to slow over the next two years as major projects reach completion. As a result, Staff has continued to emphasize that the large operating surpluses are not likely to continue over the long term. This shift underscores the importance of preparing the City for the transition from a growth-oriented community to a maintenance-focused one, where costs associated with aging infrastructure, facilities, and service demands are expected to increase at the same time revenue growth begins to slow.

It is important to note that the City has not yet reached this transition point. However, the long-term forecast indicates that, absent mitigating actions, the City is projected to experience an operating deficit beginning in Fiscal Year 2030-31. While this transition will require difficult choices over time, the City still has the runway to act thoughtfully and take measured steps to preserve long-term fiscal stability while continuing to provide the high level of services that residents, businesses, and visitors have come to expect.

The short-term action items outlined in this transmittal letter and incorporated into the Proposed Budget continue to support the City’s original three budget goals, while also beginning to advance a fourth goal: preparing Dublin for its transition to a maintenance-focused city. These efforts are consistent with the City Council’s recently adopted Two-Year Strategic Plan and reflect the City’s ongoing commitment to prudent fiscal stewardship.

This Budget is a comprehensive document, including fund summaries, revenue and expenditure summaries, position allocations, and illustrative charts and graphs that present the City’s financial plan in a clear and transparent manner. It also includes performance measures for certain departments, which tie City activities to measurable outcomes. Behind all the numbers is the City's commitment to continue delivering a high level of service to the community while planning for long-term financial stability.

Budget-In-Brief: Key Issues
Economic Outlook
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2026-27 and FY 2027-28 Budget reflects many of the same economic conditions that have impacted the City over the past two years. Elevated inflation, ongoing supply chain constraints, and increased operating costs have continued to place pressure on both consumers and local governments. While economic conditions showed signs of improvement at various points during this period, prompting the Federal Reserve System to lower interest rates multiple times over the past two years, ongoing global conflicts and broader world events have continued to create economic uncertainty and volatility in financial markets. As a result, the Federal Reserve has recently paused additional rate adjustments while it continues to monitor inflationary trends and overall economic conditions.

Despite this uncertainty, the City’s economic consultants anticipate conditions will gradually improve over the next year, with inflation continuing to be moderate and economic activity stabilizing. Current projections indicate the Federal Reserve may resume lowering interest rates in the latter part of 2026, which is expected to help stimulate economic growth and consumer activity heading into 2027.

Budget Overview
The Budget includes citywide revenue of $173.1 million in FY 2026-27 and $177.2 million in FY 2027-28. Expenditure proposals total $148.3 million and $151.5 million in FY 2026-27 and 2027-28, respectively. The total citywide fund balance is projected at $403.7 million and $417.2 million in FY 2026-27 and 2027-28, respectively. All fund balances are budgeted in the positive, except for grant funds, which are reimbursed after expenditures are incurred, and the Public Facilities Fee Fund due to the timing difference in collecting the fees and construction of parks and facilities.

The General Fund Budget is balanced in both years, with operating surpluses projected at $11.1 million in FY 2026-27 and $9.3 million in FY 2027-28. After factoring in transfers out, it is projected that $4.8 million will be added to reserves in FY 2026-27 and $1.1 million in FY 2027-28, with a year-over-year decrease due to the continuation of planned general fund expenditures on Capital Improvement Program projects.

General Fund Overview
Property Tax, the City’s largest revenue source, has begun to show signs of slowing growth. While both fiscal years are still projected to receive the annual 2% increase in assessed valuation permitted under Proposition 13, recent reports from the County Assessor’s Office indicate that a greater number of properties than originally anticipated have been granted Proposition 8 reductions. As a result, projected Property Tax revenue in FY 2026-27 has been reduced by approximately $529,200 (0.79%) from the amounts previously presented during the Preliminary Budget presentation.

A Proposition 8 reduction is a temporary decrease in a property’s assessed value that occurs when the property’s current market value falls below its taxable value. These reductions are reviewed annually by the County Assessor and may be restored in future years as property values recover. Staff continues to work closely with the City’s property tax consultants and the County Assessor’s Office to evaluate the full fiscal impact of these reductions and will provide updates as additional information becomes available.

Sales Tax, the City’s second-largest revenue source, is projected to increase from the current year amended budget; however, updated information indicates growth is now expected to be lower than previously projected. This adjustment is based on revised forecasts from the City’s sales tax consultant, reflecting continued softness in consumer spending amid higher prices and ongoing economic uncertainty.

The updated outlook anticipates the most significant impacts within the auto sector, which accounts for approximately 40 percent of the City’s sales tax base. While Dublin’s auto dealers have continued to show resilience, Staff and the City’s consultants are closely monitoring the effects of global conflicts, rising energy and transportation costs, inflationary pressures, Transmittal Letter
Proposed Budget Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027-28 | Dublin Page 7 Attachment #2 489
and tariffs, all of which continue to place pressure on household budgets and discretionary spending, particularly for high-cost purchases such as automobiles.

Development Revenue is projected to increase slightly in FY 2026-27 relative to the FY 2025-26 Amended Budget before declining in FY 2027-28 as active development projects near completion. Charges for Services are projected to increase by 11.8 percent in FY 2026-27 and 3.1 percent in FY 2027-28, driven primarily by continued strong demand for the City’s recreational programs and facilities.

On the expenditure side, personnel costs are projected to increase by $1.3 million in FY 2026-27 due to the addition of three full-time positions, cost-of-living adjustments, merit increases, and rising retirement and healthcare costs. Contracted Services, including Police, Fire, and maintenance services, are projected to increase by $6.1 million, or 8.3 percent, in FY 2026-27 and by $1.6 million, or 2.0 percent, in FY 2027-28, primarily due to rising public safety and MCE Corporation costs.

The increase also reflects an accounting reclassification of certain Police and Fire liability insurance costs from Services and Supplies to Contracted Services, which better reflects the nature of these expenditures. The reclassification shifts approximately $1.7 million in FY 2026-27 and $2.0 million in FY 2027-28 into Contracted Services, with a corresponding decrease in Services and Supplies.

Overall, the City enters this budget cycle in a stronger financial position than many peer agencies. Significant economic uncertainty remains, particularly around the City’s major revenue sources, and Staff will continue to closely monitor these conditions.

Strategic Planning
Strategic Plan
The Two-Year Strategic Plan sets the overall direction for the City, guiding resources and setting specific objectives to drive City actions, and includes the City’s Mission, Vision, and Values. In developing this Plan, the City utilizes a consultant to facilitate the process with the City Council and the City’s executive leadership. The consultant interviews each Councilmember to identify individual priorities, which are then consolidated into draft goals by the consultant and executive leadership. Following this, the City Council reviews, prioritizes, and finalizes the consolidated goals and strategies at a Strategic Planning Workshop, which is typically held in February/March. The Two-Year Strategic Plan is then adopted at a subsequent City Council meeting, prior to being incorporated into the City’s budget. On April 7, 2026, the City Council adopted its Two-Year Strategic Plan for FY 2026-27 and 2027-28. Each quarter, Staff provides the City Council an update on the progress being made towards the established priorities.

The priorities for FY 2026-27 and 2027-28 are:

Public Safety, Health, and Welfare
Fiscal Sustainability
Technology Innovation
Housing Affordability
City Infrastructure
Downtown Dublin
Fallon East Economic Development Zone
Enhanced Customer Experience

Short-Term Priorities and Factors
The following is a summary of certain actions, driven by the priorities in the Two-Year Strategic Plan, which have budgetary impacts and are addressed in this two-year budget.

Public Safety, Health, and Welfare
The FY 2026-27 Dublin Police Services (DPS) Budget includes the addition of one Lieutenant position to support operational oversight, supervision, and continued service demands within the Police Services Department. The DPS Budget also continues funding for two retired annuitant positions that support the Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE) program. These positions will continue to be fully funded through opioid settlement revenues, allowing the City to maintain youth outreach and drug prevention education efforts without impacting General Fund resources.

Additionally, the DPS Budget provides for the continued staffing of the three positions assigned to the Behavioral Health Unit.

Since its establishment, the Behavioral Health Unit has played an increasingly important role in responding to calls involving mental health, homelessness, and other behavioral health-related issues, while helping connect community members with appropriate services and resources. Beginning in FY 2026-27, funding for these positions will transition to being fully supported by the General Fund, reflecting the City’s ongoing commitment to maintaining these services as part of its core public safety and community support efforts.

Housing Affordability
The Proposed Budget also reflects the City’s continued commitment to supporting affordable housing opportunities within the community. To assist residents seeking homeownership opportunities in Dublin, the appropriations include $800,000 in each fiscal year for the City’s FirstTime Homebuyer Loan Program. This funding will help support eligible homebuyers by providing financial assistance toward the purchase of a home, while furthering the City’s broader housing goals and efforts to maintain a diverse and sustainable community.

City Infrastructure
The Proposed Budget includes the addition of a Maintenance Coordinator position to support the development and implementation of the City’s asset management program and provide oversight of maintenance contractors and related operations.

The FY 2026-27 budget for maintenance services with MCE Corporation includes an increase of approximately $1.4 million over the prior year. This increase reflects the continued growth, complexity, and aging of the City’s infrastructure systems, as well as the high level of service expected by the community. As City infrastructure ages, maintenance needs continue to increase in both volume and complexity, requiring more specialized and coordinated maintenance efforts. The budget also reflects the City’s continued transition toward a more proactive maintenance model focused on preventative maintenance and long-term asset management strategies intended to improve reliability and reduce lifecycle costs.

Included in the proposed increase is approximately $285,000 to expand preventative maintenance efforts across City facilities and infrastructure. By shifting away from reactive, "break-fix" maintenance toward a more proactive approach, the City can extend the useful life of assets, improve system performance, and reduce the frequency of unexpected failures and emergency repairs.

The Proposed Budget also includes approximately $140,000 for a new MCE Management Analyst position. This position will support the operational and administrative functions associated with maintenance services, including implementation of a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) and advancement of a comprehensive citywide asset management program.

Internal Service Funds (ISF)
Transmittal Letter
Proposed Budget Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027-28 | Dublin Page 9 Attachment #2 491
The proposed budget includes a 10.0 percent increase in Internal Service Fund (ISF) contributions in FY 2026-27 and a 9.0 percent increase in FY 2027-28 to help ensure adequate funding is available for the future replacement and maintenance of City facilities, vehicles, technology systems, and other critical infrastructure assets. As the City’s infrastructure network continues to age and expand, replacement costs, maintenance demands, and life cycle management needs are increasing significantly. The additional funding will help the City continue proactively planning for these future capital obligations while minimizing the risk of deferred maintenance and unexpected replacement costs.

In addition, Staff is currently undertaking a comprehensive citywide asset inventory and assessment effort to better evaluate the condition, useful life, replacement schedules, and long-term funding needs associated with City-owned assets. This initiative is intended to support the development of a more robust asset management framework and improve long-term capital planning. Once completed, the inventory and assessment process may identify the need for additional future funding to adequately address replacement, repair, rehabilitation, and ongoing maintenance requirements across the City’s infrastructure systems and facilities.

Additionally, Staff is planning for increased maintenance costs and more frequent replacement of assets. Accordingly, the two- year budget includes funding for the following:
$2.0 million General Fund contribution in each fiscal year to the Internal Service Funds for facility replacement. These funds will be utilized in future years for the replacement of City assets, which include park structures, facilities, and equipment at City facilities, including at The Wave.
$4.5 million annually for pavement management, including an estimated $9.15 million total General Fund contribution in the new Five-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP).

The new Five-Year CIP also includes several major street improvements, which require $38.3 million in funding over the next five years. This is in addition to the $96.8 million currently included in the FY 2025-26 Amended Budget. $3.5 million - Golden Gate Drive Intersection Improvements $6.0 million - Local Street Resurfacing at I-580 Interchanges $1.5 million - Tassajara Road Improvements – North Dublin Ranch Drive to Quarry Lane School $27.3 million - Village Parkway Reconstruction
Additionally, the Budget includes the strategic use of Internal Service Funds previously set aside to address maintenance and replacement issues through the CIP. This includes $9.2 million in Internal Service funding for the below projects. $2.0 million - The Wave Pool Replastering
$0.2 million - Shannon Center – Pre-school Play Yard
$3.7 million - Dublin Sports Grounds Rehabilitation
$2.3 million - Fallon Sports Park – Artificial Turf Field Replacement $1.1 million - Sports Court Resurfacing

Fiscal Year 2026-27 Budget: The Details

OPERATING REVENUES
Citywide revenues total $173.1 million in FY 2026-27 (including internal service funds, excluding transfers in and Fiduciary Funds), representing a decrease of $8.0 million from the FY 2025-26 Amended Budget, due to the receipt of one-time grant funds in FY 2025-26 for capital improvement projects.

Highlights:

Property Taxes and Sales Taxes are the City’s largest ongoing revenue sources, accounting for 59.1 percent of total Governmental Fund revenues in FY 2026-27.

Property Tax, the City’s largest revenue source, has begun to show signs of slowing growth. While both fiscal years are still projected to receive the annual 2% increase in assessed valuation permitted under Proposition 13, recent reports from the County Assessor’s Office indicate that a greater number of properties than originally anticipated have been granted Proposition 8 reductions.

Sales Tax, the City’s second-largest revenue source, is projected to increase from the current year amended budget; however, updated information indicates growth is now expected to be lower than previously projected. This updated outlook reflects continued softness in consumer spending amid higher prices and ongoing economic uncertainty, and is expected to have the largest impact within the auto sector, which accounts for approximately 40% of the City’s sales tax base.

Use of Money and Property, which consists primarily of interest revenue, is projected to decrease by $1.4 million across all funds in FY 2026-27 with the projected decrease primarily in the General Fund due to spending of General Fund reserves to support CIP expenditures, which will reduce the City’s investable cash balances. This decrease is offset partially by higher than previously projected cash balances in other City funds, resulting in year-over-year increases in interest revenue. Overall across all funds, interest revenue is projected to decrease by an additional $1.3 million in FY 2027-28.

OPERATING EXPENDITURES
FY 2026-27 Budget totals $148.3 million in all funds (including Internal Service Fund purchases, excluding transfers out and Fiduciary Funds). This is made up of operating appropriations of $140.7 million, and $7.6 million in Internal Service Fund costs primarily for equipment purchases and Information Technology funding.

The City's operating expenditures are adjusted each year in a relatively consistent manner based on contract terms, consumer price index (CPI) adjustments, or other known factors, (i.e. onetime projects, increase in development projects, or increase in insurance rates).

Examples are:

Personnel costs are driven by salaries and benefits as approved by the City Council. Pension rates are set by CalPERS.

Services and Supplies remain generally static across departments, with increased cost coming from higher insurance premiums as provided by the City’s PLAN Joint Powers Authority (PLAN JPA), the City’s insurance pool.

Contract Services budgets are based on projected work needed to address development projects and additional staffing as the City’s population increases and City assets come online and mature.

Highlights:

Personnel
The two-year Budget reflects an updated position allocation plan, salaries, health rates, and retirement benefits. Total personnel costs are projected to increase $1.4 million (5.2%) in FY 2026-27 and $1.5 million (5.4%) in FY 2027-28. This is due to Transmittal Letter
Proposed Budget Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027-28 | Dublin Page 11 Attachment #2 493
the addition of three staff members: an Environmental Coordinator and Maintenance Coordinator in Public Works and a Recreation Supervisor in Parks and Community Services; cost-of-living adjustments; merit increases; and an increase in retirement and health costs.

Contracted Services Costs
The City contracts for public safety (Police and Fire), maintenance, development, and other miscellaneous services. In Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027-28, total contract services comprise 59.2 percent of the overall operating expenditure budget. Public Safety contract costs make up 34.1 percent of all spending in the operating budget.

10-Year General Fund Forecast
The 10-Year General Fund Forecast serves as the foundation of the annual budget process in terms of guiding the City’s use of resources now to prepare for the future. While the General Fund operating budget is in a positive position in the two-year budget period, incorporating the information from this budget cycle into the 10-Year Forecast shows a projected operating deficit starting in FY 2030-31, as illustrated in the table below. This is one year earlier than was discussed during last year’s budget presentation. It should be noted that Staff uses conservative assumptions when projecting the City’s future revenue and expenditures, and that a full recession scenario is not included in the 10-year period. . 10 Year Forecast

10-Year General Fund Assumptions
In developing the 10-Year Forecast, Staff continued the practice of conservatively projecting revenues and growing expenditures using historical information. While predicting economic health in the long term is challenging, Staff believes the Forecast is a fair representation of the City’s potential financial future. Assumptions used in the Forecast are described below.

REVENUES
Property Tax
Years 3 through 5: 5 percent growth annually based on estimates provided by the City’s Property Tax consultant, which includes the following assumptions:

CPI adjustment: 2 percent increase (the maximum allowed) throughout the forecast.

Transfer of ownership: growth based on historical averages and an improving housing market.

Prop 8 recapture: Recapturing value lost in FY 2026-27 and FY 2027-28.

Years 5 through 10: 2.5 percent growth annually.

Sales Tax
Years 3 and 4: 3 percent growth annually.

Years 5 through 10: 2.5 percent growth annually.

All sharing agreements have been factored in.

Development Revenues
Based on development project projections.

Years 3 and 4: Flat
Years 5 through 10: Steady decline as the community nears build-out Transient Occupancy Tax
Years 3 through 10: Flat. Pending results of November 2026 election regarding a potential rate increase.

If a rate increase is approved:
2 percent increase = $350,000 annual increase.
4 percent increase = $700,000 annual increase.

Other Taxes
Years 3 through 10: 3 percent annual growth, reflecting the steady rate adjustments in utility franchise fees, offsetting the continued softness in transfer tax and cable revenues.

Charges for Services
Years 3 through 10: 2 percent growth annually as an inflationary factor, across all Charges for Services revenues Interest
Years 3 and 4: Flat
Years 5 through 10: Annual decreases as the City draws down on planned General Fund Reserve spending and interest rates continue to decline.

Rentals and Leases
Years 3 through 10: 3 percent annual growth
Revenue projections will be continually reevaluated as the effect of fee adjustments on utilization becomes clearer.

All Other Revenue
Years 3 through 10: 0-3 percent growth annually

EXPENDITURES
Personnel
Years 3 through 10:

Transmittal Letter
Proposed Budget Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027-28 | Dublin Page 15 Attachment #2 497
No new positions.

COLA: up to 3.5 percent annually.

Merit: 3 percent increase annually.

Annual benefit increases of 5 percent for retirement and health care.

Services and Supplies
Years 3 through 10: 2 percent annual increase reflecting insurance premiums growing at 6 to 8 percent annually, offset by non-insurance costs remaining relatively flat.

Internal Services Funds
Years 3 through 10: 10 percent annual increase to build up balances for future maintenance needs. However, this assumption may be revisited as Staff completes a comprehensive asset inventory currently underway. Once finalized, any identified funding deficiencies may necessitate adjustments to annual ISF contributions to ensure sufficient resources are available for future replacements.

Contracted Services
Years 3 through 10: 6.0 percent annual growth for non-development-related contracts, consistent with historical contract cost averages over the past decade. Development-related contracts are projected to remain flat in Years 3 and 4, followed by a steady decline in Years 5 through 10, based on current development project projections and consistent with projected development revenue.

Utilities
Years 3 through 10: Annual increase of 4%.

Transfers Out/Contributions/Other
Preventative Maintenance: $2.0 million per year.

Lease Revenue Bond Early Payoff: $1 million per year to FY 2028-29.

General Fund Contribution to CIP, based on current CIP projects.

One additional officer in Dublin Police Services in each year of the Forecast.

Conclusion
I am proud of the work that City of Dublin staff have done in putting together another thoughtful budget that reflects our commitment to providing a high level of service to our community while maintaining a conservative approach. In short, Dublin's finances are robust: the General Fund is in a surplus position, reserves are healthy, we continue to be able to make significant investments in needed capital improvements, and our planned activities are in line with the priorities identified by the City Council in its Strategic Plan.

I also want to thank the members of the community that have actively engaged with the City over the last year to provide feedback on our services, and to highlight the things that are important to them. We endeavor to listen and to be responsive to the variety of perspectives and needs of our diverse community.

Finally, I want to acknowledge the City Council for their continued policy guidance, thoughtful direction, and championing of this great City.

Respectfully,
Colleen Tribby
City Manager

City of Dublin Profile
Overview
The City of Dublin is in the East Bay of the San Francisco Bay Area and is approximately 30 miles east of San Francisco and approximately 30 miles northeast of Silicon Valley.

According to the California Department of Finance, the
population in the City of Dublin is 71,728 excluding group quarters (3,041), as of May 2026.

The City of Dublin was incorporated in 1982 and in 2011 was named an “All-America City” by the National Civic League.

For the period of 2010-2020 Dublin was named the fastest growing city in California with a 38.7 percent increase in population growth according to U.S. Census data.

Crossroads of the Bay Area
Dublin, California has long been known as the “crossroads” of the Bay Area. Dublin sits at the intersection of two major highways: Interstate 580 and Interstate 680. The significance of its location dates back more than 200 years when Dublin served as the crossroads of two important state routes – one from the Bay Area to Stockton, and the other from Martinez to San Jose. The Alamilla Spring, located in the Dublin area, provided a place for travelers to change horses and freshen up before continuing their journey.

Dublin has a rich history dating back to 1772 when Pedro Fages led an expedition of 16 mounted men on a journey in search of a land route to Drake’s Bay, which at that time was called San Francisco Bay. Their return journey brought them through the Amador Valley.

It was not until 1835 when building began in the area. Jose Maria Amador had been paid in land for his years of service as a Mexican soldier and as administrator of Mission San Jose. He received a land grant of 16,517 acres in the Amador-Livermore Valley. He built many adobe homes and small buildings that were used as shops where his Native American workers made soap, blankets, shoes, farm tools, and other products for use on his ranch.

In 1850, Michael Murray and Jeremiah Fallon came to this area from Ireland. They purchased 1,000 acres of land from Jose Amador and built homes for their families. The area began to grow as many people settled in the area. In 1867, Alameda County was created from parts of Contra Costa and Santa Clara counties. Both Murray and Fallon served on the Alameda County Board of Supervisors.

By 1877, the first schoolhouse in the Amador-Livermore Valley was constructed in Dublin, along with a church, two hotels, Green’s Store, a wagon and blacksmith shop, and a shoemaker’s shop. The Murray Schoolhouse, Green’s Store, St. Raymond’s Church, and the old Pioneer Cemetery (where members of the Donner Party Expedition are buried) have been preserved and are now located on Donlon Way. Back then, mail was delivered to the Dougherty Station Hotel. Thus, the area became known as Dougherty’s Station. Subsequently, the area later became known as Dublin and in 1982, the City was incorporated.

Modern Day
The Tri-Valley area is made up of five cities and towns – Dublin, Livermore, and Pleasanton, along with San Ramon and the Town of Danville located in nearby Contra Costa County. During the past 20 years, the Tri-Valley area has become a place of prosperity, a center for internationally acclaimed business parks, home to some of the world’s largest corporations, as well as known for its outstanding schools and variety of housing options.

Over 40 years, Dublin has emerged as a dynamic, thoughtfully planned community. Home to a wide mix of quality housing and two pedestrian-oriented transit districts, Dublin is poised for continued prosperity. The community has continued to maintain its small-town character and has become increasingly diverse. Its strong business climate, new and high-performing schools, planned neighborhood developments, and award-winning parks and facilities, have contributed to a high quality of life for its residents and businesses.

Structure of Government
City Council – Five Members, Elected at-large
The City of Dublin is a general law city operating under a City Council-City Manager form of government. Historically, Councilmembers were elected at-large and served the entire community rather than by district. However, in 2024, the City Council began transitioning to district-based elections and currently two Councilmembers are elected at-large by the voters of Dublin, and two Councilmembers were elected in district elections. In November 2026, the City Council will finish the transition to district-based elections for Councilmembers, while maintaining an at-large Mayoral election. The four Councilmembers are elected to four-year staggered terms; the Mayor is elected to a two-year term. The City Council establishes local law and policies through the enactment of ordinances and resolutions. The City Council also determines how the City shall obtain and spend funds, adopts a two-year budget process and a Two-Year Strategic Plan. The Mayor recommends, and the City Council appoints, community members to serve on commissions, boards, and advisory committees and represents the City by serving on regional and county committees and boards whose policies may impact Dublin and the Tri-Valley area (e.g., Associated Bay Area Governments, League of California Cities, and Metropolitan Transportation Commission). The City Council appoints the City Manager and City Attorney positions. A City Council position is a part-time and salaried position.

City Manager – Appointed by City Council
The City Manager is the Chief Executive Officer and is appointed by the City Council. The City Manager provides, in accordance with the City Council policies, overall administration and direction for the City organization and operations. In the event of an emergency, the position is designated to serve as the Director of Emergency Services. The City Manager position is a full-time, salaried position.

City Attorney – Appointed by City Council
The City Attorney serves as legal counsel for the City Council. This position is responsible for providing both formal and informal legal opinions, as well as advice to the City’s officers, employees, boards, and commissions. The duties of this position also include the review and/or preparation of all contracts, bonds, deeds, leases, and other documents of legal significance.

This is a contract position.

Organization Chart

Budget Accounting
In accordance with the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), the City’s funds are grouped into three categories:
governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary. Within each category, the funds are further classified into types such as general funds, special revenue funds, etc. Additionally, the funds are divided between major and non-major categories. For budgeting purposes, a major fund represents a fund or fund category that has revenues or expenditures that equals more than 10 percent of the City’s entire appropriated budget.

In governmental accounting, agencies report different kinds of information for different fund types, according to what and how financial resources are measured. The “current financial resources” method measures an entity’s ability to pay obligations in the near-term and
focuses on cash and/or assets that are expected to be converted to cash within the accounting period, or shortly thereafter. The “economic resources” method measures all assets that are available to the entity, not only cash or soon to be cash.

Agencies also use different methods to recognize the timing of certain transactions. Under the “full accrual” accounting basis, all assets are considered available to the governmental unit for the purpose of providing goods and services. Therefore, transactions are recorded when the underlying action takes place, regardless of the actual cash flow timing. Under the “modified accrual” basis, income is recorded using the accrual basis, but expenditures are recorded when they actually occur.

The City of Dublin complies with the GASB requirements and thus budgets and accounts for transactions based on the following rules:

resourcesFull accrual
Furthermore, the City’s expenditure appropriations lapse at the fiscal year-end (June 30) but may be carried over for specific purposes when approved by the City Manager. Encumbrances are considered expenditures in the year of the issuance of the purchase order. If the encumbrance is unused at year-end, it is re-appropriated the following fiscal year.

A two-year budget is presented to the City Council prior to the beginning of the budget cycle. The Operating Budget is adopted by the City Council on an annual basis. During mid-cycle, a review and update are prepared and presented to the City Council for the adoption of the second year’s budget. The fiscal year begins on July 1 and ends June 30. Operating budgets are controlled at the department level and fund level. The City Council may amend the budget during the fiscal year.

The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is adopted on a multi-year project basis, where funds for specific projects receive an annual appropriation and any unused appropriation may be re-appropriated the following year. The projects are budgeted and constructed in phases, to allow for future planning and budgeting. CIP project budgets are adopted and controlled at the project level and funding source level.

The Resolution to adopt the operating budget approved by the City Council may be found in the appendix of this document.

Included in the Resolution are guidelines for how the budget may be amended without City Council action. To summarize, the City Manager may increase expense and revenue budgets for both operating budgets where there is a zero net impact on the fund, appropriate funds from Committed and Assigned fund balances that have been approved by the City Council for specific th

purposes, appropriate Internal Service fund balances that have been set aside for facilities, vehicle, and equipment replacement purposes and transfer between capital improvement projects where the funding source is the same. All other budgetary changes after budget adoption are subject to approval by the City Council.

In addition to budget amendments that may occur during the fiscal year, the Finance Director prepares and presents a mid- year review of expenditures and revenues to the City Council. At that time, the Finance Director may recommend budget amendments to the City Council for their consideration.

Fund Definitions
The funding received by public agencies generally has restrictions on how it may be utilized. For example, Gas Tax Revenue must be spent on certain street-related improvements. In accordance with government auditing practices, agencies establish separate funds to demonstrate compliance with the variety of restrictions.

There are three categories of Funds used in governmental accounting, which are classified further into Major and Non-Major Funds:

Governmental Funds – Account for activities which are primarily tax-supported operations or other mandatory payments and are virtually unique to government. Fund types are:

General – primary operating fund; accounts for all financial resources of the City except those required to be accounted for in another fund. Use of these funds is discretionary in accordance with City Council policies, and State and local laws.

Capital Project – accounts for the improvement, construction, or acquisition of fixed assets such as buildings, facilities, equipment, and roads.

Debt Service – accounts for principal and interest of long-term debts.

Special Revenue – accounts for the use of revenues that are legally restricted to expenditures for specific purposes.

Permanent – accounts for funds in which only interest earnings, and not principal amounts, are expendable. The City does not use this type of fund.

Proprietary Funds – Account for activities that are primarily funded by income from operations resulting from voluntary payments for goods and services provided to users. Fund types are:

Internal Service – used for operations serving other funds or departments within the government on a cost- reimbursement basis.

Enterprise – Accounts for operations financed and operated similar to business activities, and services rendered to the general public on a fee basis. The City does not use this type of fund.

Fiduciary Funds – Account for resources held by a governmental entity in a trustee or agency capacity for the benefit of others, and which cannot be used to support the governmental entity. Fund Types are:

Agency – accounts for assets held by the City in a custodial capacity and paid to other individuals or organizations (ex. assessment districts).

Trust – accounts for assets held by other parties (i.e., Pension or Retiree Health Trust).

Major Funds vs. Non-Major Funds – The General Fund is always a major fund. Other major funds have total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses that are: 1) 10% or more of the corresponding element, excluding extraordinary items, for all funds of that type; and 2) at least 5% of the corresponding element total for all governmental and enterprise funds combined. All other funds are classified as non-major unless the City deems a certain fund of interest or important to financial statements.

General Fund Reserve Details

RESERVES
Total General Fund reserves are projected at $290.7 million at the end of FY 2026-27, a projected decrease of $32.7 million from FY 2025-26, mainly due to the continued use of the General Fund for capital improvement projects. The unassigned/available cash reserve is projected at $62.1 million, before any designation by the City Council to specific Committed reserves, and before Staff completes the necessary accounting adjustments to reserves at the end of the current fiscal year. The City Council made preliminary reserve designations during the May 19, 2026 City Council meeting and will make final reserve designations once the City has closed their books for the year, which typically occurs in late October/November.

General Fund Revenue
Total General Fund revenues, excluding transfers, are budgeted at $135.9 million and $138.1 million, in Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027-28 respectively, an increase of $0.1 million or 0.1 percent in the first year and $2.2 million or 1.6 percent in the second year.

Dublin’s two largest ongoing revenue sources in the General Fund, Property Tax and Sales Tax, account for 70.2 percent of total revenues in Fiscal Year 2026-27.

General Fund Revenue Assumptions
The following are the key assumptions used to construct the General Fund operating budget in Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027- 28, and the variances from year to year (the two variance numbers represent the change in Fiscal Year 2026-27 from the Fiscal Year 2027-28 Amended Budget, and the change in Fiscal Year 2027-28 from the Fiscal Year 2026-27 Budget). Descriptions are provided for categories with variances of $150,000 or more.

Property Tax:+$1,455,325 / +$3,516,191
Property Tax, the City’s largest revenue source, has begun to show signs of slowing growth. While both fiscal years are still projected to receive the annual 2 percent increase in assessed valuation permitted under Proposition 13, recent reports from the County Assessor’s Office indicate that a greater number of properties than originally anticipated have been granted Proposition 8 (Prop 8) reductions. As a result, projected Property Tax revenue in FY 2026-27 has been reduced by approximately $529,200 (0.79%) from the amounts previously presented during the preliminary budget presentation. A Proposition 8 reduction is a temporary decrease in a property’s assessed value that occurs when the property’s current market value falls below its taxable value. Under Prop 8, the County Assessor may temporarily reduce the taxable value of a property to reflect declining market conditions. These reductions are reviewed annually and may be restored in future years as property values recover.

Assumptions
Total Property Tax revenue is projected to grow $1,455,325 (2.2%) in FY 2026-27 and $3,516,191(5.2%) in FY 2027-28. This growth reflects an increase in assessed value due to the California CPI increase of 2 percent (the maximum allowable by Proposition 13), and a decrease of approximately $400 million in valuation in FY 2026-27 due to the Prop 8 reductions.

Budgeted delinquency rate of 1.0 percent included in both fiscal years.

Sales Tax:+$358,636 / +$838,691
In late March, the City received an updated sales tax forecast reflecting a slight downward revision from the prior quarter. The adjustment is based on an updated economic outlook from the City’s tax consultant, incorporating local and statewide trends that indicate continued softness in consumer spending as households navigate higher prices and broader economic uncertainty, including the effects of ongoing global conflicts.

This uncertainty is expected to have its most significant impact on the auto sector. While Dublin’s auto dealers have demonstrated resilience over the past year, Staff and its consultants are closely monitoring recent global developments and their projected effect on consumer spending. Specifically, energy market disruptions have contributed to higher fuel and transportation costs, while elevated inflation and tariffs have increased the cost of goods, further straining household budgets.

Together, these pressures are affecting consumer purchasing patterns, particularly for high-cost discretionary items such as automobiles, which represent nearly 40.0 percent of the City’s sales tax base. Staff will continue to monitor economic conditions and sales trends closely, particularly within the automobile sector, as these factors play a key role in shaping near- term revenue performance and long-term fiscal planning.

Assumptions
Total Sales Tax revenue is projected to increase $358,636 or 1.3 percent in Fiscal Year 2026-27 when compared to the FY 2025-26 Amended Budget despite a minor decrease of 0.4 percent in the Auto and Transportation sector. This decrease is offset by a projected increase of 3.9 percent in Fuel and Service Stations, due to the continuing high fuel prices and a

2.3 percent increase in Restaurants & Hotels. All other industry groups in Fiscal Year 2026-27 are projected to remain flat or have small increases, led by the General Consumer Goods.

Fiscal Year 2027–28 Sales Tax is projected to increase to $838,691 or 3.0 percent. City consultants anticipate the economy to begin to rebound, led by a 4.0 percent increase in the Auto & Transportation sector, as well as projecting an increase in all other sections ranging from 1.0 to 3.4 percent.

Other Taxes:+$182,545 / +$185,980
Other taxes include Property Transfer Tax and various franchise fees covering electric, gas, garbage, and cable services.

Revenue in both fiscal years is projected to increase primarily due to the annual garbage rate adjustment established in the General Fund Operating Summary
Proposed Budget Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027-28 | Dublin Page 55 Attachment #2 537
franchise agreement, and increases in gas and electric rates. Property Transfer Tax revenue remains closely tied to housing market conditions and has stayed near a 10-year low, reflecting subdued property sales activity. Cable franchise fee revenue has continued its gradual decline over the past decade driven by cord-cutting trends.

Development Revenue: +$223,468 / -$1,454,211
Development revenue includes permitting fees and payments for planning and engineering services provided by the City.

Projections are based on the timing of development projects, coordinated between Staff and developers. Revenue is estimated to increase slightly in FY 2026-27 relative to the FY 2025-26 Amended Budget, before declining in FY 2027-28 as active development projects near completion.

As the City Council is aware, development projects progress through various stages and the receipt of revenues and corresponding service (i.e., City costs) do not happen simultaneously. Plan check costs are typically incurred approximately 12 months after revenue has been received, meaning that as development decreases, the associated decrease in costs will lag. In anticipation of this, the City has maintained a reserve (currently at $3.15 million) to cover costs during that lag.

Charges for Services: +$831,994 / +$240,458
Charges for Services revenue is derived predominately from Parks and Community Services (PCS) programs. The projected increase in FY 2026-27 reflects the following:

Increases:

Opening of the Dublin Arts Center (partial year)
Addition of a ninth after-school program site
The Wave fee adjustment
Addition of new Special Event programming, including the Night Market and Community Garage Sale Decreases:

Lower than projected attendance in the Jr. Warriors program Loss of major contract vendor (Skyhawks)
Reduced Preschool enrollment
The modest growth projected in FY 2027-28 reflects a stabilization of PCS revenue following the FY 2026–27 expansions and includes a full year of revenue from the Dublin Arts Center.

Non-PCS revenue includes administrative fees collected from the City’s contracted garbage collector (Amador Valley Industries), projected to increase 5.0 percent, consistent with the franchise agreement, and emergency response reimbursements from Alameda County for services at Santa Rita Jail, which are projected to remain flat.

Rents and Leases:+$303,045 / +$60,500
The FY 2026-27 increase is primarily driven by strong demand for field and court rentals and Shannon Community Center rentals, as well as revenue associated with the opening of the Dublin Arts Center. It should be noted that these projections do not reflect the proposed field rental fee adjustments approved in the Master Fee Schedule update, that will become effective January 1, 2027. Staff will monitor the impact of the increased fee on field usage and adjust future revenue projections accordingly.

Revenue projections for FY 2027-28 include a 5.7 percent increase in field and court rental revenue, with all other rental categories remaining flat.

Other Revenue: -$613,428 / +$63,128
The Other Revenue category encompasses a wide variety of revenue types received by the City, including Sale of Property, Sponsorship/Donation, and Reimbursements. These revenues can be unpredictable and vary moderately each year, so Staff budgets only known payments and recurring items, incorporating adjustments as additional revenues are received.

Both fiscal years include reimbursements for work performed at Camp Parks through the Intergovernmental Support Agreement, reimbursable work for Dublin San Ramon Services District, and PCS sponsorships and contributions. The FY 2026– 27 projection is in line with the FY 2025-26 Adopted Budget, reflecting a year-over-year increase of $150,000. The decrease General Fund Operating Summary
Proposed Budget Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027-28 | Dublin Page 56 Attachment #2 538
relative to the FY 2025-26 Amended Budget is attributable to a mid-year budget adjustment that included $749,000 in one-time tax credit revenue.

General Fund Operating Summary

General Fund Expenditures
The City's ongoing operating expenditures and long-term financial liabilities continue to grow, as previously discussed expenditures are now projected to eventually outpace the City's ongoing revenue growth in Fiscal Year 2030-31, absent any significant additional revenues or cost-cutting measures. This is one year earlier than previously discussed during last year's budget presentation. The Budget reflects an increase in total General Fund operating expenditures of $6.6 million (5.6%) in Fiscal Year 2026-27 and an increase of $4.0 million (3.2%) in Fiscal Year 2027-28. The chart below presents the composition of operating expenditures by category for Fiscal Year 2026-27 and is followed by a discussion of the assumptions used in preparing the budget.

General Fund Expenditure Assumptions
The following are the key assumptions used to construct the General Fund operating budget in Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027- 28, and the variances from year to year (the two variance numbers represent the change in Fiscal Year 2026-27 from the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Amended Budget, and the change in Fiscal Year 2027-28 from the Fiscal Year 2026-27 Budget. Descriptions are provided for categories with variances of $150,000 or more.

Personnel Costs: +$705,721 / +$959,015
The two-year budget proposal reflects an updated position allocation plan and projected salaries. The increase in the Fiscal Year 2026-27 personnel costs is attributed to the net impact of the following:

Addition of an Environmental Coordinator in Public Works to support long-term sustainability goals and ensure compliance with local and State mandates
Addition of a Maintenance Coordinator in Public Works to develop and implement an asset management plan and provide contractor oversight
Addition of a Recreation Supervisor in PCS, replacing a part-time Office Assistant II, to oversee day-to-day operations of the Dublin Arts Center in advance of its opening.

Flat seasonal staffing costs in FY 2026-27, with a slight increase projected in FY 2027-28 Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) of 1.9 percent and merit pay of 3.0 percent for full-time personnel in FY 2026-27 The Fiscal Year 2027-28 budget does not include any new positions. Increases are based on a projected cost-of-living adjustment of 3.5 percent and merit pay of 3.0 percent for full-time personnel.

Benefit Costs: +$647,566/+$423,489
Benefit costs are predominantly made up of retirement and health benefit costs. To help mitigate these costs, the City has implemented cost-sharing mechanisms with employees for both retirement and health benefits.

It must be noted that the City now has more employees in the California Public Employees’ Pension Reform Act (PEPRA) retirement tier rather than in the Classic retirement tier, as a result of gradual workplace turnover. PEPRA benefits are generally less costly than Classic retirement formulas, resulting in lower long-term employer pension obligations and reduced ongoing retirement costs for the City. While these savings will not result in immediate savings, as workforce turnover continues overtime, this transition is expected to help moderate future pension cost growth and provide long-term savings to the City’s operating budget.

Supplies and Services: -$951,144 / +$197,694
Services and Supplies expenditures for Fiscal Year 2026-27 are decreasing due to the City implementing a budget realignment for liability insurance costs associated with contracted Police and Fire services. These costs will be moved from Services and Supplies to Contracted Services to more accurately reflect the nature of the expenditures and ensure consistent treatment of all third-party liability costs, resulting in a reallocation of approximately $1.7 million in FY 2026-27 and $2.0 million in FY 2027-

28. When factoring out the budget realignment, Services and Supplies are projected to increase in both years. These increases are driven by higher insurance premiums through PLAN Joint Powers Authority (PLAN JPA), the City’s insurance pool, and the addition of the City’s self-funded workers’ compensation program. Rising insurance costs have been a recurring trend statewide, and Dublin’s experience is consistent with that of other California municipalities. Liability insurance through PLAN JPA is projected to increase to approximately $400,000 (15.0 percent) in FY 2026-27 and $360,000 (11.0 percent) in FY 2027-28.

The FY 2026–27 rates remain preliminary but are not expected to shift significantly, while the FY 2027–28 figures are based on PLAN JPA estimates and should be considered a placeholder pending more current information.

FY 2026-27 will mark the first year the new workers’ compensation program is reflected in the budget. As the program launched January 1, 2026, the FY 2026-27 budget includes only six months of excess insurance costs to align the program with the fiscal year. The full cost beginning in FY 2027-28 is projected at approximately $140,000 annually.

Excluding insurance, Services and Supplies costs are flat in FY 2026-27, with FY 2027-28 reflecting a decrease attributable to one-time costs associated with the opening of the Dublin Arts Center.

General Fund Operating Summary
Proposed Budget Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027-28 | Dublin Page 59 Attachment #2 541
Utilities: +76,850 / +$222,900
The Budget includes a minor increase in utilities in Fiscal Year 2026-27 which is the net result of the effect of the energy efficiency projects coming online and increases in utility rates. Fiscal Year 2026-27 includes increases for electricity and potable water, which are offset by a projected decrease in recycled water and are based on updated projected usage. Fiscal Year 2027- 28 includes an increase based on projected rate increases in electric and gas as well as costs associated with new facilities coming online.

Internal Service Charges: +581,790 / +584,021
Internal Service Charges include the replacement cost of facilities, vehicles, and equipment, in addition to the, IT operating budget. The projected increases in both fiscal years are primarily driven by higher IT operating costs and increased contributions to the City’s replacement funds.

Technology-related costs are funded through the IT Fund and allocated to departments based on service usage and equipment assignments. These costs have risen steadily over the past five years as the City continues to expand its technological capabilities. Contributions to replacement funds have similarly increased to ensure adequate resources are set aside for future capital needs as the City’s infrastructure continues to age. City staff is currently undertaking a comprehensive asset inventory, once finalized, any identified funding deficiencies may necessitate adjustments to annual ISF contributions to ensure sufficient resources are available for future replacements.

Contract Services: +$6,110,195 / +$1,582,800
The City contracts for Public Safety (Police and Fire), maintenance, development, and other miscellaneous services and represents the City’s largest expenditure category. In Fiscal Year 2026-27, total contracted services make up 64.1 percent of the overall General Fund expenditure budget and include projected increases of 8.3 percent ($6.1 million) in FY 2026-27 and 2.0 percent ($1.6 million) in FY 2027-28. These General Fund increases are primarily attributable to the revised maintenance agreement with MCE Corporation, an 8.5 percent increase in the Fire Services agreement, and a 1.0 percent increase in the Police Services agreement.

An 11.0 percent increase for unrepresented employees, resulting from a comprehensive classification and compensation study conducted by Alameda County Fire
A 3.4 percent pay rate increase for Safety members in January 2026 A 4.0 percent pay rate increase for Safety members in January 2027 An 11.2 percent increase in CalPERS retirement costs, reflecting higher wages and an increased CalPERS retirement rate A 5.6 percent increase in projected health care premium costs No additional staffing in either fiscal year
Additional cost increases reflect a 6.6 percent increase in Services and Supplies, attributable to higher dispatch costs and uniform and personal protective equipment costs as required by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

The City’s Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) trust for Fire retiree health benefits remains super-funded due to prior-year contributions. As a result, OPEB costs will be paid from the trust, generating General Fund savings of approximately $691,000 in FY 2026-27 and $732,000 in FY 2027-28.

Development-related and other general City contract costs are budgeted according to anticipated service levels for specific projects, and are projected to increase by $1.5 million in Fiscal Year 2026-27, due to increases in Development related contract expenditures. Development projections are based on the timing of development projects, coordinated between City staff and developers. Revenue is estimated to decrease in FY 2027-28 as active development projects near completion. Additionally, the decrease in contract expenditures in the FY 2027-28 is the result of one-time costs being budgeted in FY 2026-27 and not FY 2027-28, including the fire station building assessment and the November 2026 election.

Accomplishments for Fiscal Year 2024-25 and
2025-26
Maintained and enhanced the quality of life in Dublin by collaborating and building strong partnerships with the citizens of Dublin.

Worked with the City Manager to evaluate and plan for current and future staffing needs for the Police Department.

Rolled out the flock camera system, to continue efforts to utilize technology to assist in the day-to-day operations.

Completed the renovation to the DPS Police Chief’s Conference Room which included the implementation of technology (large interactive touch screen monitor) to assist in seamlessly providing information during critical incidents.

Completed station-wide training for supervisors. In 2025, DPS facilitated comprehensive supervisor training which was presented by "Why’d You Stop Me" aimed at enhancing frontline law enforcement leadership, supervisory decision- making, addressing performance issues, and addressing morale concerns of subordinate leaders.

Completed an Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) operation. In September 2025, DPS in conjunction with the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) conducted a joint operation titled the Child Exploitation Under Cover (UC) Chat. During this two-day operation, multiple suspects engaged in conversations with law enforcement officers, believing they were speaking with juveniles. These conversations ultimately led to the arrest of three suspects during the operation, and one suspect following the operation’s conclusion.

Conducted tobacco enforcement operations. On September 29, 2025, DPS’ collaboration with the Alameda County Tobacco Retail Enforcement Network (ACTREN) and the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) culminated with a retail tobacco inspection at a business whose owner has been in violation of local Dublin Municipal Codes pertaining to furnishing tobacco products to minors. Furthermore, this business had been operating without a tobacco retail license in close proximity to Dublin High School for almost a year. As a result of this inspection, the CDTFA collected and confiscated 72 boxes of tobacco/nicotine/vape related products, all of which they were prohibited from possessing.

Assisted with the organization and security for numerous high-profile events throughout the city which fostered stronger relations, not only with the citizens of Dublin, but with numerous visitors to the city. Those events included the Saint Patrick’s Day Festival (a two-day event), participating in the Special Olympics torch run, the fourth of July safe and sane fireworks detail, the National Night Out community engagement program, the Splatter Art and Wine Festival, and the City of Dublin annual tree-lighting event.

Launched a seven-part video series on e-bikes, e-scooters, and micromobility devices and launched a webpage with additional resources and information in collaboration with the Community Engagement Division.

Hosted a Prescription Drug and Fentanyl Safety Community Forum in partnership with the National Coalition Against Prescription Drug Abuse at Emerald High School.

The Wave
The Wave is the City of Dublin’s state-of-the-art, 31,000-square-foot aquatics facility featuring a natatorium (indoor pool), outdoor sports pool, waterslide tower, splash zone with water play features, concessions building, and community room. The budget includes expenditures related to staff training to enhance safety measures for all staff employed at the facility (including lifeguards, slide attendants, and administrative staff). Additional expenditures include aquatics programming (swim lessons, recreational and competitive swimming, and fitness classes), waterpark operations, concessions, facility rentals, and general operations. This budget also includes facility preventative and ongoing maintenance, as equipment and pool parts begin to reach the end of their life cycle. Additionally, revenue generating expenses are included in this budget, such as purchasing three new cabanas, the most popular rentable feature during waterpark season. Other expenses include additional umbrellas to increase shaded areas within the waterpark and upgrades to the outdoor sound system.

Internal Service Funds
The Internal Service Fund provides funding to support the following areas: 1) Replacement of vehicles and fire apparatus; 2) Replacement of major building system components such as heating and air conditioning systems, pumps, boilers, etc. at City- owned facilities; 3) replacement of office equipment, computers, network infrastructure, solar equipment, telephone systems, etc.; 4) IT operational costs; 5) City employees Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) and 6) City Self Insured Workers Compensation Program
Each City operating department budget includes charges for equipment usage. The Internal Service Fund charges in departments translate to revenue in the Internal Services Funds. Department charges are established at a level to sufficiently accumulate funds over time for the replacement of the equipment and funding for IT costs.

The total Internal Service Funds budget for Fiscal Year 2026-27 is $7,625,957, and the projected budget for Fiscal Year 2027-28 is $7,453,690 (excludes depreciation expense and transfers). Planned Internal Service Fund purchases are related to building maintenance, replacement of network servers and computers, replacement of police patrol cars, and retiree health costs.

The following are the fund summaries for Internal Service Funds:

Internal Service Fund - Equipment
The fund is maintained to finance necessary equipment replacement such as copiers, network infrastructure, traffic system, etc. The costs of these equipment are allocated based on the estimated life of the equipment on a predetermined schedule that is reviewed and evaluated on an annual basis.

Dublin Crossing CFD 2015-I (5102)
In November 2013, the City Council adopted the Dublin Crossing Specific Plan (DCSP) relating to the private development of approximately 189 acres on a portion of the Parks Reserve Forces Training Area (Camp Parks) in the City of Dublin. The DCSP includes provisions for the demolition of existing buildings and other improvements on the site and construction of a residential mixed-use project with up to 1,995 single- and multifamily residential units; a 30-acre Community Park; and a 12- acre school site.

The City Council also approved a development agreement with the Developer which outlined their intention to propose the formation of a Community Facilities District (CFD) by the City pursuant to the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982. A CFD is a defined geographic area in which the City is authorized to levy annual special taxes to either finance directly the costs of specified public improvements, or to pay debt service on bonds issued to finance the public improvements, as well as to pay costs of administering the CFD.

On June 2, 2015, the City Council adopted the Resolution of Formation (Reso 96-15), establishing Community Facilities District No. 2015-1 (Dublin Crossing). In August 2017, the City issued $32.7 million in bonds on behalf of the CFD. In July 2019, the City issued $37.7 million in bonds on behalf of the CFD. In August 2021, the City issued $26 million in bonds on behalf of the CFD. In September 2022, the City issued $21.72 million in bonds on behalf of the CFD. In December 2023, the City issued $18.65 million in bonds on behalf of the CFD.

Geologic Hazard Abatement Districts (GHAD)
A Geologic Hazard Abatement District (District or GHAD) is a state-level entity which is established separate from the City of Dublin and applies to a specific defined area within the City. The District is formed under provisions in the California Public Resources Code which establishes in Section 26500 that a District is a political subdivision of the State and is not an agency or instrumentality of a local agency.

The City’s role is limited to providing support to the District, coordinating activities undertaken for the District, administering the District funds, and coordinating the payment of expenses associated with the District. GHAD funding is collected as a supplemental assessment on property tax bills. The District can perform maintenance on defined areas and can also accumulate reserves to address major or extraordinary work such as a landslide repair.

The Public Resources Code defines a “geologic hazard” as an actual or threatened landslide, land subsidence, soil erosion, earthquake, fault movement, or any other natural or unnatural movement of land or earth. A District may be formed for the following purposes: (a) Prevention, mitigation, abatement, or control of a geologic hazard; or (b) Mitigation or abatement of structural hazards that are partly or wholly caused by geologic hazards (Public Resources Code 26525).

The City of Dublin has established three separate Districts: Fallon Village Geologic Hazard Abatement District, Schaefer Ranch Geologic Hazard Abatement District, and Fallon Crossing Geologic Hazard Abatement District. These Districts are managed by a Board of Directors, which is composed of members of the City Council. Assessments are levied in accordance with an Engineer’s Report prepared for each District and adopted at a public meeting.

Information in this section is presented for informational purposes since these activities are not a direct obligation of the City of Dublin.

Fallon Village Geologic Hazard Abatement
District
The Fallon Village Geologic Hazard Abatement District (GHAD) was established in accordance with a condition of approval for the Fallon Village (Positano) development project. On December 4, 2007, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 216-07 which created the Fallon Village GHAD. The GHAD was formed to provide a mechanism for the prevention, mitigation, abatement, and control of identified or potential geologic hazards within the GHAD’s boundary. The boundary of the Positano development encompasses approximately 175 acres of land, located generally east of Fallon Road.

On May 3, 2011, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 52-11 approving the annexation of the Jordan Ranch development into the Fallon Village GHAD. The boundary of the GHAD with both Positano and Jordan Ranch developments encompasses a total of approximately 674 acres of land, located generally east of Fallon Road.

On February 21, 2023, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 23-23 approving the annexation of the East Ranch development into the Fallon Village GHAD. Upon completion of the development and transfer to the GHAD, the East Ranch development will add approximately 166 acres of land to the GHAD.

For Fiscal Year 2025-26, a total of 12,062 parcels were subject to the levy of an assessment which represents all the residential units within the Positano, Jordan Ranch, and Francis Ranch developments. Additional residential parcels in the Francis Ranch development are anticipated to be subject to the levy of an assessment in Fiscal Year 2026-27.

Fallon Crossing (North Tassajara) Geologic
Hazard Abatement District
The Fallon Crossing Geologic Hazard Abatement District was established in accordance with a condition of approval for the Fall Crossing (The Chateau) development project. On August 16, 2011, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 147-11 which creat the Fallon Crossing Geologic Hazard Abatement District. The GHAD was formed to provide a mechanism for the preventio mitigation, abatement, and control of identified or potential geologic hazards within the GHAD’s boundary. The boundary of T Chateau development encompasses approximately 68 acres of land located on the northeast side of Tassajara Road. The GHA recently accepted Plan-of-Control Responsibilities for the Chateau development.

On June 6, 2017, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 66-17 approving the annexation of the Tassajara Hills development in the Fallon Crossing GHAD. The boundary of the Tassajara Hills development encompasses a total of approximately 293 acres land in the northeast corner of the City. The GHAD has not accepted transfer and maintenance responsibilities within the Tassaja Hills development yet, therefore the development does not receive any GHAD services at this time.

For Fiscal Year 2025-26, a total of 477 parcels were subject to the levy of an assessment which represents all of the planned residential units within both The Chateau and Tassajara Hills developments. No additional residential parcels are estimated to be subject to the levy of an assessment in Fiscal Year 2026-27 or Fiscal Year 2027-28.

California Employers' Retiree Benefit Trust
(CERBT)
The State of California Public Employees Retirement System (CALPERS) developed the CERBT to allow public agencies to invest money in a trust mechanism to fund other post-employment benefits (OPEB), otherwise known as retiree health care.

The City of Dublin Retiree Health Plan is a single-employer defined benefit health care plan administered by CalPERS. The plan provides medical insurance benefits to eligible retiree and their eligible dependents in accordance with the State Public Employee Retirement Law.

During the Fiscal Year 2006-07, the City made arrangements with CALPERS for the initial establishment of the trust and transferred $5.5 million into the trust. The City has established a policy to make annual contribution for the purpose of funding the Annual Required Contribution (ARC) when there are no budget constraints. The ARC amount is determined by an Actuarial Study which is required to be updated biennially. The City’s OPEB is currently super-funded, there is no ARC budget included in the next two fiscal years.

It is important to note that the CERBT funds are not controlled by the City, as they are assets held by and distributed by CalPERS. This page is included in the budget document for informational purposes only.

Human Services Grants Program
This years grants were approved as part of a two-year grant cycle approved by the Human Services Commission on March 27, 2025 and the City Council on May 6, 2025. The City of Dublin is anticipating a reduced allocation of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding for Fiscal Year 2026-27. In recent years, the City has benefited from utilizing unallocated CDBG funding by participating in the Urban County CDBG program administered by Alameda County. For Fiscal Year 2026-27, it is anticipated the City will only receive its base allocation as other participating jurisdictions in the Urban County program will begin utilizing previously unused allocations. This will result in a projected reduction of $42,000. Further discussion on funding for the FY 2026-27 Human Services Grants program, will take place on June 2, 2026, during the Budget Adoption Hearing agenda item. The final allocations will be updated based on City Council Direction.

Fund Balance and Reserve Policy
General Fund and Other Governmental Funds
(Updated June 2015)
This document shall establish the foundation for the components of fund balance and provide requirements for maintaining reasonable levels of reserves in governmental funds, with a focus on the General Fund. The presentation of fund balances is also presented in the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) and the official City financial records. This document is intended to comply with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 54. In the event of a conflict between this policy and the provisions of GASB Statement No. 54 the accounting statement shall prevail.

In accordance with the requirements of GASB, the City Council also confirms as part of this policy the order of expenditures from resources available. The City considers “Restricted” amounts to have been spent prior to “unrestricted” amounts when an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which both are available (“unrestricted” would include Committed, Assigned, and Unassigned). Similarly, when an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which amounts in any of the unrestricted classifications of fund balance could be used, the City considers “Committed” amounts to be reduced first, followed by assigned amounts and then the unassigned amounts.

POLICY OBJECTIVES
The City of Dublin’s Fund Balance and Reserves Policy has four primary objectives:

Determine available liquid resources;
Classify fund balances in accordance with GASB 54;
Define the methodology of allocating net resources; and Provide information needed to make informed financial decisions.

Periodically the City Manager may recommend to the City Council a review of this policy based on overall City initiatives and current balances. Any adjustments to the policy shall be adopted by the City Council.

B. CLASSIFICATION OF FUND BALANCES
In accordance with GASB Statement No. 54 and as reported in the City’s financial statements, fund balances are identified by the following five fund balance classifications:

I.Non-spendable Fund Balance
Non-spendable fund balances are amounts in a form that cannot be spent because they are either (a) in a non-spendable form such as pre-paid items, inventories, or loans receivable; or (b) they have external restrictions imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, laws, regulations, etc. However, if the use of the proceeds from the collection of those receivables or from the sale of those properties is restricted, committed, or assigned, then they should be included in the appropriate fund balance classification (restricted, committed, or assigned), rather than non-spendable fund balance.

The following are items that are expected to be recorded as “Non-spendable”:

Prepaid Expenditures: The portion of fund balance that represents the asset amount of prepaid expenditures, held by a given fund.

Endowments: The portion of fund balance established as an endowment by the donor and in which the principal balance is not intended for expenditure.

Fund Balance and Reserves Policy
Proposed Budget Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027-28 | Dublin Page 229 Attachment #2 711
Advances To Other Funds: The portion of the fund balance that represents the asset amount of cash advanced to other funds, held by a given fund.

Notes / Loans Receivable: The portion of fund balance that represents the asset amount of notes or loans receivable, held by a given fund.

II. Restricted Fund Balance
Restricted Fund Balance shall reflect that portion of fund balance that reflects constraints placed on the use of resources (other than non-spendable items) that are either: (a) externally imposed by creditors (such as through debt covenants), grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments; or (b) Imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.

The following are items that are expected to be recorded as “Restricted”:

Public Safety Special Revenue Funds: The portion of fund balances derived from funds collected to be used for Public Safety related activities.

Transportation Special Revenue Funds: The portion of fund balances derived from funds collected to be used for Transportation related activities.

Environmental Special Revenue Funds: The portion of fund balances derived from funds collected to be used for Environmental related activities.

Parks Special Revenue Funds: The portion of fund balances derived from funds collected to be used for Parks related activities.

Assessment District Special Revenue Funds: The portion of fund balances derived from funds collected to be used for Public Safety and Transportation related activities, consistent with the purpose under which the fee is collected.

Cultural & Arts Special Revenue Funds: The portion of fund balances derived from funds collected to be used for Cultural & Arts related activities.

Health & Welfare Special Revenue Funds: The portion of fund balances derived from funds collected to be used for Social Services and Housing related activities.

Other Restricted: The portion of fund balance in any governmental fund (except the General Fund) that is restricted under the “Restricted Fund Balance” definition as otherwise prescribed by Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 54 and not otherwise described in this category above.

III. Committed Fund Balance
Committed Fund Balance shall be composed of amounts in which the City Council has taken action to commit the funds before the end of fiscal year. The decision to modify the amount or use of funds designated as committed can only be changed by action of the City Council.

Economic Stability: The portion of General Fund Balance committed for the purpose of stabilizing the delivery of City services during periods of severe operational deficits and to mitigate the effects of uncertainties from unforeseen change in revenues and / or expenditures. City Council approval shall be required before expending any portion of this fund balance. Reserve shall be used only if: a) Sudden and unexpected decline in ongoing revenues greater than 5% of General Fund operating revenues; and/or b) Elimination or reduction of State revenue source(s) received consistently for municipal purposes, resulting in a decrease of $1,000,000 in General Fund revenues; and/or c) Reduction in projected or actual property tax or sales tax of $1 Fund Balance and Reserves Policy
Proposed Budget Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027-28 | Dublin Page 230 Attachment #2 712
million or more; and/or d) An increase in contracted Police or Fire Services in excess of 10 percent more than the previous year.

Downtown Public Improvements Seed Funding: The portion of General Fund Balance established by the City Council for public improvements in the downtown. The use of this balance is intended to address public improvements within the Downtown Specific Plan Area. The expenditure is to be identified as a specific appropriation made by the City Council. The appropriation shall be a minimum of $50,000.

This includes a pro-rata share of regional radio infrastructure as well as City owned radios for Police, Fire, and Public Works. Further the reserve may be used to fund the upgrade of centralized City telephone and communication systems. The expenditure is to be identified as a specific appropriation made by the City Council.

Fire Retiree Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB): The portion of General Fund Balance established by the City Council for the future liability related to retiree medical benefits offered to the inactive Dougherty Regional Fire Authority Staff, as well as the City share of obligations with the OPEB benefits for Alameda County Fire Department. The expenditure is to be identified as a specific appropriation made by the City Council.

Innovations & New Opportunities: The portion of General Fund Balance established by the City Council to fund potential projects which require up-front costs but would provide longer term benefits and / or potential operating cost reductions. The expenditure is to be identified as a specific appropriation made by the City Council.

One Time Initiatives: The City Council recognizes that there may be fluctuations in revenues and expenditures over time.

Periodically the Council may determine that funds are best set-aside to address certain one-time initiatives within the operating and/or capital budget. The expenditure is to be identified as a specific appropriation made by the City Council.

Joint City / School Projects This commitment shall be used to fund projects undertaken via a joint effort of the City and the Dublin Unified School District. The expenditure is to be identified as a specific appropriation made by the City Council.

Fund Balance-Committed: The portion of Fund Balance that is in any non-general fund governmental fund that is committed under the “Committed Fund Balance” definition as otherwise prescribed by Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 54 and not otherwise described in this category above.

Committed for Specific Projects: The portion of fund balance that is established annually by the City Council to fund design, improvements, and equipment required for a variety of capital improvement projects. Specific project designations will be identified with the Resolution Authorizing Special Designations of General Fund Reserves, to be considered for adoption by the City Council prior to the end of each fiscal year. This reserve category replaces all subcategories for specific projects, except for the reserves listed here separately, which are more long term in nature and/or are considered contingency reserves to be used in the case of specific fiscal necessity.

IV.

Assigned Fund Balance
Assigned fund balances are amounts constrained by the City’s intent to be used for a specific purpose but are neither restricted nor committed.

Fund Balance and Reserves Policy
Proposed Budget Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027-28 | Dublin Page 231 Attachment #2 713
The City Council has authorized the City Manager or his/her designee to make assignments in accordance with this policy and in conformance with any formal direction provided by the City Council.

Accrued Leave Subject To Year End Calculations: Certain fund balances are calculated based on the financial performance of the reporting period including accrued Leave. These amounts fluctuate each year and are reflected as part of the year-end financial statements.

Carry-Over Items (Operating Budget & Capital Improvement Projects): Fund balance may be assigned for operating expenditures (excluding personnel costs) which were not expended in the current year and the expense will occur in the following year, i.e., encumbrances. Similarly, a Capital Improvement Project may have funds allocated in a specific year and the project remains incomplete at year end. The City Manager or his/her designee may assign fund balance representing the unexpended funds. These funds are available for authorized appropriations in the subsequent year.

Non-Streets Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) Reserve: The portion of General Fund Balance intended to fund future non- streets capital projects, where total funding may not currently be known, and for which lump sum amounts will be set aside over time. These funds are available for authorized appropriations in the subsequent year.

Carry-Over Fiscally Responsible Adjustment: In any year that an appropriation was made to the contingency For Fiscally Responsible Adjustment the unused fund balance may be assigned as a carry-over for personnel costs. The City Manager or his/her designee may assign fund balance representing the unexpended funds. These funds are available for authorized appropriations in the subsequent year in conformance with personnel policies and procedures.

Catastrophic Facility / Infrastructure Loss & City Business Recovery: The City Council recognizes the importance to maintain funds to recover from a catastrophic loss which are unexpected and incur more than $500,000 in expenses to public facilities and infrastructure. This may also be used for short-term recovery and business operations following a catastrophic loss pending the reimbursement from insurance or grants to the extent that they are available. The balance is established in the General Fund and the expenditure shall be made only by City Council appropriation, which shall include a special emergency appropriation. The target established for the maximum balance in this category is an amount equal to 15% of the reported book value of the City owned Buildings and Improvements recorded as Capital assets.

Service Continuity Obligations: The City Council recognizes the importance to maintain funds for continued obligations to provide Building and Safety inspections in the event that program supporting fees are collected in one year and the expenditures occur in a subsequent year. The City Council hereby establishes as policy that the assigned funds shall not exceed 125% of the budgeted Building and Safety Division operating cost.

Pension and Other Post-Employment Benefits: The City Council recognizes that investment earnings can fluctuate from year to year, and they are an important component of the funding of retiree benefits. Investment performance impacts annual contributions and expenditures made towards retiree obligations. The intent of the City Council is to establish a fund balance that can provide supplemental financing to lessen the impacts from decreases in investment performance on retiree obligations. The City Manager or designee may allocate from what would otherwise be “Unassigned” fund balance to increase the fund balance. The use of funds from this fund balance may be used: (a) if the City Employer share of the Public Employee Retirement System (PERS) rate increases by 3 percent; and / or (b) If the City Annual Required Contribution (ARC) for retiree medical benefits increases by 3 percent or more; and / or (c) If the City Council by majority vote authorizes a lump sum use of the fund balance to reduce pension or OPEB liabilities.

Assigned for Specific Projects: The portion of fund balance that is intended to be used to fund design, improvements, and equipment required for a variety of capital improvement projects, via recommendation of either the City Council or the City Manager. Specific assigned reserves will be identified with the Resolution Authorizing Special Designations of General Fund Reserves, to be considered for adoption by the City Council prior to the end of each fiscal year. This reserve category replaces all subcategories for specific projects, except for the reserves listed here separately, which are more long term in nature and/or are considered contingency reserves to be used in the case of specific fiscal necessity.

IV.

Unassigned Fund Balance (General Fund Only)
Fund Balance and Reserves Policy
Proposed Budget Fiscal Years 2026-27 and 2027-28 | Dublin Page 232 Attachment #2 714
Unassigned fund balance represents amounts that have not been restricted, committed, or assigned and is available for any purpose. The City Council at its discretion may modify unassigned fund balance and designate in the future an intended “Commitment” or “Assignment.”
Unrealized Gain on Investments: Used to account for that portion of fund balance that is the result of unrealized investment gains that have been recorded in accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 31.

Unassigned For Cash Flow Purposes: The City Council recognizes the importance to maintain funds for cash flow purposes to balance the fact that the receipt of major revenues and major expenditure disbursements are not evenly distributed throughout the year. The City Council establishes as policy that this fund balance shall be at a minimum equal to two months of budgeted operating expenditures with a goal to achieve a maximum of four months. As part of the annual budget appropriation the City Council may also appropriate as a source of funding “Unrestricted – Capital Contribution” from this source. This shall typically be done only for high priority one-time capital expenditures, provided the minimum fund balance would remain.

C. CHANGES IN GENERAL FUND RESOURCES
In accordance with the requirements of GASB the City Council also confirms as part of this policy how General Fund resources shall impact changes in
balances.

Revenue Sources Allocated to Fire OPEB: The entire amount of the General Fund resources derived from the repayment of funds advanced to the PERS Side Fund, shall be assigned to the Fire OPEB Committed Balance, until such time that either there are no longer any repayments made, or the balance equals $8.6 million, whichever occurs first.

Revenue Sources Allocated to Service Continuity: If the “Assigned” balance is below the target maximum of 125% of Building & Safety Expenditures, the following criteria shall be used for calculating an adjustment. The Administrative Services Director shall complete an analysis of major building permits issued in the period April – June and shall assign an allocation of the portion of revenue that is expected to be related to expenditures occurring in the subsequent year. The amount derived shall be recommended to the City Manager. If annual building permit revenue is less than the annual Building and Safety expenditures, the City Manager is authorized to reduce the assigned amount by the amount necessary to balance revenues and expenditures.

Allocation of Residual Resources: When there are net resources in excess of what is classified as Non-spendable, Restricted, Committed, and/or Assigned, and after maintaining the minimum level of unassigned cash-flow funding, those resources shall be allocated as follows: a) 50% to Pension and Other Post-Employment Benefits; and b) 50% to Non-Streets CIP Reserve.

Legal Debt Limit
The following table illustrates the City’s most recent debt limit over a five-year period, as presented in the Fiscal Year 2024- 2025 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report. The Government Code of the State of California provides for a legal debt limit of 15% of gross assessed valuation. However, this provision was enacted when assessed valuation was based on 25% of market value. Effective with FY 1981-82, each parcel is now assessed at 100% of market value (as of the most recent change in ownership for that parcel). The computations shown below reflect a conversion of assessed valuation data for each fiscal year from the current full valuation to the 25% level that was in effect at the time that the legal debt margin for local governments was enacted by the State. Only voter approved debt is calculated towards the debt limit.

Debt Service Schedule
The City issued 2021 lease revenue bonds to finance energy efficiency capital improvements, the City received S&P Global ‘AAA’ issuer credit rating (ICR) and ‘AA+’ long-term rating for Dublin Financing Authority, the entity issuing the revenue bonds.

Payment of debt service of the bonds is a liability of the General Fund. In addition to payment of the annual debt service, the City has created a Lease Revenue Bond Early Payoff Reserve with the anticipation of fully paying the remaining debt when the bonds become eligible to be paid off in 2029. The Reserve, as of June 30, 2026, has $10 million set aside, with the City anticipating contributing an additional $1 million per year, during the year-end reserve designation process. The prepayment of the City’s debt is projected to save the City approximately $3 million. 2021 Lease Revenue Bonds Remaining Annual Payments
