Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
City of Emeryville
1333 Park Avenue
Emeryville, CA 94608-3517
On behalf of the City staff, I am pleased to present the City of Emeryville Biennial Budget for the 2025-26 and 2026-27 fiscal years. It includes the City Operating Budget along with the Five-Year Capital Improvement Program Budget. This transmittal letter provides a summary of the 2025-27 Proposed Budget.
The City of Emeryville’s budget is anchored in the City Council’s vision for a thriving and inclusive community and built upon the foundational principle of financial health and sustainability. This principle is carried forward through innovation, continuous improvement, and responsible financial stewardship.
City Strategic Plan
A new element of this budget process was the creation of a City Strategic Plan. In March 2025, Members of the City Council met with the City Manager, the Department Head team, and an outside facilitator to review the many goals, aspirations, and projects that the City has underway and others that are contemplated for the future. By focusing on these goals and the resources the City has to achieve them, a Strategic Plan was adopted by the City Council. This became a pillar in the development of the Proposed 2025-27 Budget.
The Strategic Plan focused on 4 multi-year goals:
Livable, Safe and Vibrant Community
Quality Infrastructure and Environment Stewardship
Dynamic and Growing Businesses
Resilient Organization and Employer of Choice
It affirmed the City’s Foundational Principle of Financial Health and Sustainability and established 4 immediate priorities approved by the City Council:
Bicycle & pedestrian focused projects: 40th Street redesign and Ashby interchange A New Website to better inform our community
Revenue, budget, audits and researching revenue measures for the November 2026 General Election Ballot
Sutter Health Foundation Medical Center and Hospital in Emeryville vi
Guided by the four broad goals adopted by the City Council, this budget reflects our shared commitment to enhancing quality of life, strengthening public infrastructure, supporting local businesses, and investing in our workforce. These goals provide a strategic framework that aligns City resources with the needs and values of the community.
Citywide Budget
The annual budget is the single most important policy that the City Council reviews and approves, as it represents the City’s priorities for making resource investments, both for the upcoming year and the long-term future. As such, the budget process must include effective participation from the Mayor and City Council, our community, key stakeholders, and City staff. Working together, we strive for progressive investment in our community’s future, as well as in our organization and staff, so that we can operate efficiently and effectively.
Citywide Revenues and Expenses
In fiscal year 2025-26, revenues for the City are budgeted at $116.4 million. Operating expenditures are budgeted at $142.1 million and capital expenditures are budgeted at $85.1 million for a total of $227.2 million. For the 2026-27 fiscal year, revenues are budgeted at $109.2 million. Operating expenditures are budgeted at $143 million and capital expenditures are budgeted at $4.7 million for a total of $147.7 million. The increased expenditures include work on several major Capital Improvement projects during the 2025-27 Budget cycle.
Citywide Staffing
The proposed budget funds 174.61 full-time equivalent (FTE) positions, including:
140 FTEs in the General Fund
34.61 FTEs in Special Revenue and Enterprise Funds
Measure F-funded positions: 1 Engineer (Public Works) and 1 Code Enforcement Officer (Community Development)
General Fund Budget
The General Fund is the City’s main source of unrestricted funds. The City’s General Fund revenues (before transfers in) total $46 million and $47.6 million in FY 2025-26 and FY 2026-27, respectively. The City’s General Fund expenditures (before transfers out) total $54.3 million and $56.1 million for FY 2025-26 and FY 2026-27, respectively.
The outlook for the City’s General Fund Budget remains challenging during the 2025-27 biennial budget. In the current 2024-25 fiscal year, the General Fund was projected to have a deficit of $8.8 million.
This was addressed by the City Council in March 2025 through several measures including:
Reallocating $3.2 million per year of Residual Property Tax revenues from other funds to the General Fund
vii
Transferring $5 million from the Economic Uncertainty Reserve and $2 million from the Capital Improvement Fund to the General Fund
Establishing a goal of 20% for the Unassigned General Fund Balance (based on annual General Fund expenditures). This is consistent with the GFOA (Government Finance Officers Association) standard of 2 months or more of operating capital in this fund for local government agencies.
The General Fund also benefitted from an unanticipated Commercial Property Tax Revenue payment of $11.2 million from the Sutter Health Foundation. This was generated by its purchase of property from BioMed for a future Medical Center & Hospital complex.
Despite these measures, the 5 Year General Fund forecast shows an annual structural deficit of $9.7 million to $14.6 million over that period. While the Unassigned General Fund balance will remain above the 20% goal during the 2025-26 fiscal year (due to the measures and unanticipated revenue noted above), it will be necessary to transfer more funds to the General Fund starting in the 2026-27 and future fiscal years to remain at this level.
5 Year Budget Forecast (2025-27 Proposed Budget)
General Fund Revenues
General Fund Revenues are projected to grow modestly in FY 2025-26 and FY 2026-27.
Changes in the economy of the San Francisco Bay Area will impact the City’s revenues, particularly the General Fund major revenue sources of business licenses, sales tax, departmental revenues, and transient occupancy taxes (TOT).

Projection
viii
Property Tax & Property Transfer Tax
As illustrated in the chart below, based on the Property Assessment Value (AV) report from Alameda County, the City anticipates property tax revenues to increase by 2% annually.
The significant increase in FY 2024-25 is due to the unanticipated $11.2 million in Commercial Property Transfer Tax revenues from Sutter Health Foundation. ix
Sales and Use Tax
Sales and Use Tax revenues are dependent upon consumer confidence and the local economy. As illustrated in the chart below, sales taxes have gradually decreased since the FY 2021-22 recovery. This has included several quarters of negative Sales Tax receipts in the past year. Notably this trend was offset by a positive quarter of Sales Tax receipts in the 4th Quarter of 2024.
This revenue is projected to grow by 0.2% in the 2025-26 fiscal year with slight further growth over the next few years according to Avenu, the City’s Sales Tax audit and analysis firm.
Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT)
Revenues paid by visitors at local hotels, referred to as Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT), have been and continue to be flat and lower than in the pre-Covid period. Revenues in FY 2025-26 and the following 4 years are projected to be flat as shown in the graph below. x
Card Room Tax
As illustrated in the chart below, revenue collected through the Card Room Tax declined significantly due to closure of the Card Room during the pandemic. While the Card Room Tax has since rebounded, we are assuming a moderate growth factor of 2% to 2.5% over the next few years.
Business License Tax
Business License Taxes reflect the health of the business community in Emeryville.
Based on estimates from HdL, which manages the City’s Business License Tax program, we are budgeting taxes to be only slightly higher than the current fiscal year over the next several years.
xi
Utility Users Tax
Utility Users Tax (UUT) is a 5.5% tax on communication, electricity, and gas services. As shown in the chart below, UUT has steadily increased over the past several years, This is primarily due to increases in electricity rates. UUT revenues are projected to continue to increase at rates between 3% to 12% through FY2029-30.
xii
Measure F ¼ cent Sales Tax
In March of 2020 Emeryville voters approved a local ¼ cent sales tax measure that can be used to support a limited list of City expenditures. The projected revenue for FY 2025- 26 & 2026-27 is $2.2 million for both years. The proposed budget allocates $1.3 million to $1.4 million of Measure F revenue to the Emeryville Child Development Center, an authorized use under the ballot measure. The City Council will make an annual determination about how to allocate proceeds as part of the budget process.
Expenditures
General Fund expenditures and transfers out are projected to be $55.3 Million in FY 2025- 26 and increase to $57.1 Million in FY 2026-27. Key drivers in these cost increases are the Social Security Settlement reached in 2023-24 and increased costs in City operations.
Pension Expenses - One of the benefits offered to City employees is participation in the CalPERS pension program. The following is the actual and projected costs of the CalPERS through FY 2029-30 based upon current information available. xiii
The City established a Section 115 Trust Fund to accumulate funds that can only be used towards future pension costs in addition to paying the required CalPERS annual pension payments. The Section 115 Trust Fund is projected to have a balance of $16.9 million and $17.9 million at the end of FY 2025-26 and 2026-27, respectively. If the City’s General Fund structural deficit persists, these funds will be used to cover some of the City’s PERS expenses as a General Fund deficit reduction measure.
Long Range Financial Planning
As noted earlier, the City uses a five-year financial forecasting model as a key budget planning tool to ensure accountability of the service provided and to plan for future challenges. The long-range financial planning enables the City to foresee potential budget challenges, giving the City sufficient time to analyze the long-term fiscal impact, and to take appropriate action.
The City has implemented a multi-pronged approach to ensure sustainability and prudent management of the City’s finances:
1) Maintain a strong General Fund reserve, including an Economic Uncertainty Reserve, and an unassigned fund balance.
2) Established Section 115 Pension Trust Program to pre-fund pension unfunded liability. Assets in the Trust Program can be transferred to CalPERS at the City’s discretion, which could reduce large fluctuations in employer contributions to CalPERS.

3) Passed voter-approved taxes or assessments (Measure C – Affordable Housing Bond, Measure F – Sales & Use Tax, and Measure O – Real Property Transfer Tax), and annually update the Master Fee Schedule of City departments to ensure cost recovery of services provided.
4) Promote economic development and diversify economic base to ensure business vitality and long-term fiscal sustainability. The City’s economic development work supports business growth, development, entrepreneurship, and innovation.
Emeryville is home to both small and large businesses and prides itself on supporting a business-friendly culture. From retail stores to technology firms, businesses in Emeryville benefit from a small and personal city government, an active and engaged residential community, and a thriving local business community. Additionally, the City develops marketing programs that highlight the City as a center of Art and Innovation.
Looking Forward
Staff will continue to streamline the City’s organizational processes and optimize existing programs to continue to meet the needs of residents and businesses throughout the city.
Staff are also working with the City Council to identify new revenue streams to offset the structural deficit in the General Fund. A Study Session on these revenue options is planned for the fall of 2025.
By continuing to improve efficiency and focusing on the longer-term forecast for the City’s General Fund, residents, business leaders and community partners will continue to invest in and strengthen the Emeryville community.
Capital Projects
The city has used the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) to implement the vision, goals, and priorities of the Emeryville community. The CIP is a five-year plan that guides Emeryville's investment in its public buildings, parks, streets, sewers, and other facilities.
City staff use the CIP as a roadmap to design, construct, and repair City facilities that support a livable and sustainable Emeryville. Projects included in the CIP are large-scale, long-term investments that build, replace, or improve public infrastructure. For the 2025- 2030 CIP City staff has prepared a $30.6 million Five-year Capital Improvement Program with 48 projects, supported by a variety of funding sources.
Upon adoption of the CIP, funds are appropriated for the first two years of the plan. The remaining three years are presented for planning purposes and are reevaluated and appropriated with the respective budget cycles.
The proposed 2025-30 CIP continues to advance the goals and priorities established by the City Council in recent years. Certain projects have been added or updated to reflect the needs of the community, project timelines, and changes in funding sources.
The CIP continues to focus on the following vision and key goals:
xv
Direct resources to high priority projects as identified by the City Council Goals and Priorities.
Emphasize Active Transportation in project design and implementation. Ensure streamlined delivery of Capital Projects.
Overall, create and maintain infrastructure to support a livable, vibrant City.
Consideration of the City’s financial policies is an integral part of the capital improvement program development. The five-year plan reflects applicable financial policies approved by the City Council to ensure fiscal discipline. The plan is developed in conjunction with the City’s biennial budget, taking into consideration funding needs for general operations and other city programs. The 2025-30 CIP includes proposals for revenue allocations committed to capital projects, and the use of infrastructure and implementation fund balance reserves as further described below.
The new 2025-2030 Capital Improvement Program will build on the prior CIP as well as other long-term planning source documents that set specific plans and priorities for the city. Examples of source documents that connect to the CIP include the General Plan, Public Art Master Plan, Affordable Housing Bond Administration and Expenditure Plan, and the draft Active Transportation Plan.
In addition, for the new 2025-2030 CIP, staff are seeking an intuitive approach to make the CIP more legible and accessible to the public. As such, staff have proposed updated CIP project values and categories.
The new CIP will label funded projects with values that identify and connect with community and council priorities. The 6 values that projects will be labeled with are:
Climate Action, Connectivity, Equity, Maintenance, Safety, and Quality of Life.
Furthermore, CIP categories will be consolidated from eleven to six to make the CIP more relatable and intuitive.
The previous categories were:
Community Facilities, Facilities Maintenance, Housing, Information Technology, Pedestrian Bicycle, Public Art, Sanitary Sewer, Streetscape System, Transportation, and Vehicles.
The new categories are:
Community Facilities, Essential Infrastructure, Housing, Information Technology, Sustainable Transportation, and Urban Greening.
Overall, the intention is to provide a CIP where more of the projects are active and delivered in a streamlined manner.
Staff plans to bring a more detailed discussion of the Capital Projects program to the City Council in September 2025 for its review and consideration.
xvi
Conclusion
The City must plan with care and make prudent fiscal decisions about how to best use its resources to build on Emeryville’s reputation as the City of art and innovation. Sustaining services and continuing to create an environment that enhances resiliency and equity and brings joy to our residents and visitors is at the core of the budget.

➢ MISSION STATEMENT
The City of Emeryville provides innovative and responsive services to the community to create and sustain a vibrant, livable city.

CITY OF EMERYVILLE – OUR HISTORY
Emeryville has been a city in progress for one hundred and twenty-five years. Located on the east shore of the San Francisco Bay between Oakland and Berkeley directly opposite the Golden Gate, since incorporating in 1896, the town has grown into Emeryville, the City of Art and Innovation.
Indigenous People
The original inhabitants of what is now Emeryville were two groups of indigenous people, beginning several thousand years ago. Little is known about the first group other than the physical evidence that they left behind. This included large piles of discards along the shore of the Bay, called shell mounds, one of which was particularly massive. This first group lived in the area for about 1,000 years, and then were displaced or assimilated by another group of native people who are believed to have migrated to the area from the Central Valley around 500 AD. These were the Muwekma Ohlone people, who subsisted mainly as hunter-gatherers and harvesters, and inhabited fixed village locations, moving temporarily to gather seasonal foodstuffs like acorns and berries.
In the late 18th century, when the Spanish began settling in the San Francisco Bay Area traveling north from their home base in Mexico, Don Luís María Peralta was among them.
In 1820, as a reward for his long service to the Spanish crown as a soldier and civilian official, he was granted Rancho San Antonio, a 44,800-acre (70-square-mile) land grant covering the present-day cities of San Leandro, Oakland, Alameda, Piedmont, Berkeley, Albany, and Emeryville. In 1821, Mexico gained independence from Spain, and Peralta and other "Californios" became citizens of Mexico. In 1842, Don Peralta divided the rancho among his four
sons, with Vicente Peralta
receiving the portion
encompassing presentday West Oakland, North
Oakland, and Emeryville.
He built corrals and a
slaughterhouse for his
cattle in the area around
the Emeryville shell
mound. The hides could
be transported across the
bay to the little village of
Yerba Buena from an
"embarcadero" slightly
north of Temescal Creek. His hacienda was farther up the creek, about two miles to the east, near the present-day intersection of 55th and Vicente Streets. xix
Americans Arrive
In the 1840s, Americans began to arrive in California, precipitating the Mexican-American War. The war ended with the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo on February 2, 1848 which gave California to the United States. Just nine days earlier, on January 24, 1848, James Marshall discovered gold at Sutter's Mill near Sacramento. It took a while for the word to spread but by the following year, the “Gold Rush” was on and “49ers” flooded California by the tens of thousands. The village of Yerba Buena was renamed San Francisco and grew from a population of 1,000 to 25,000 in one year. On the east side of the Bay, the City of Oakland was founded in 1852 on land that was essentially stolen from Vicente Peralta. Desiring to profit from the inevitable, he hired a surveyor and began selling off the rest of his rancho, keeping just 700 acres for himself.
One of the Americans involved in the Gold Rush was Joseph Stickney Emery, a New Hampshire native who arrived in San Francisco in September 1850. A stonecutter by trade, he supplied the stone for the U.S. Mint building and supervised the dredging of the ferry channel across the Bay. In 1858 he moved to Oakland, and in 1859 he purchased a 185-acre tract from Vicente Peralta, where he laid out Park Avenue and adjacent streets, and began selling lots. This settlement was originally called “Emery”, but in 1884, the federal government established a post office on Park Avenue and named it “Emeryville”; the community has gone by that name ever since.
The Town is Incorporated
In the late 19th century, Emeryville was a motley community, with an amusement park on top of the old shell mound next to the Bay, an extensive enclave of stockyards and slaughterhouses called “Butchertown”
to the north, a paint plant and iron mill
along the shoreline, a large horse
racing track called the “Oakland
Trotting Park” in the middle, and a
bawdy commercial district along Park
Avenue to the south. The Northern
Railway was built along the shoreline
in 1876 and, for the first time, provided
direct rail access to the community. In
1885, the Northern Railway was
acquired by Southern Pacific, which
integrated it into its nationwide system,
setting the stage for extensive
industrial development.
Emeryville businessmen, dissatisfied with the minimal municipal services provided by Alameda County, leery of Oakland's annexation aspirations, and seeking to control their own destinies, decided to form their own town. On December 2, 1896, an election was held, and its incorporation was approved by a vote of 150 to 28. Thus, the Town of Emeryville (later redesignated as the City of Emeryville) was born. xx
Expansion in the 20th Century
The 20th century brought a rapid expansion of industrial development to Emeryville. This was accelerated by the relocation of industries from San Francisco following the 1906 earthquake and the advent of World War I in 1914-1918. A network of rail spurs ran throughout the town along almost every street, facilitating this industrial expansion. By the 1930s, almost 100 major companies called Emeryville home, including California Packing Corp. (later Del Monte Cannery), Fisher Body, Judson-Pacific, Oliver Tire and Rubber, Pacific Gas and Electric, Paraffin Paint Company, Pennzoil, Santa Fe Railroad, Shell Oil, Sherwin Williams Paints, Southern Pacific, Standard Electric, Union Oil, Western Electric, and Westinghouse.
In 1936, the Bay Bridge was built with a network of highways connecting to it. The U.S.
Highway System was established in 1926 and the Interstate Highway System was created in 1956, both of which ran through Emeryville. An extensive system of local and interurban electric cars provided public transportation service throughout the East Bay and San Francisco. During World War II in the 1940s, Emeryville’s factories geared up for the war effort and employed almost 30,000 workers, including many women and African-Americans, to fulfill government contracts.
Transformation
With its solid industrial base and well-established transportation infrastructure of railroads and freeways, Emeryville continued to flourish until the 1960s, when industries began to abandon their central city locations and the city fathers made ambitious plans for transforming the city. In 1966, they adopted the city’s first “General Plan”, which called for filling in 400 acres of the Bay to create a new neighborhood with waterways, lagoons, and parks surrounding office, commercial, and high-density residential development, including a new civic center. However, before this could all be built, the State of California established the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC), with a mandate to limit further filling of the Bay. The Emeryville peninsula that exists today, running along Powell Street about a mile into the Bay, was completed but no further Bay fill was allowed. Nonetheless, this peninsula was enough to have a major impact on the future of the city. Eventually, it was developed with 1,249 condominium units which doubled the population of the city, with four office towers, a hotel tower, four restaurants, two marinas, and several acres of new park space.
xxi
In the 1970s, the City established a Redevelopment Agency and adopted a Redevelopment Plan. This put most of the city in a Redevelopment Area, resulting in “tax increment financing” from property tax, which generated millions of dollars for the Redevelopment Agency to use on capital improvement projects and affordable housing.
The State abolished Redevelopment statewide as of February 2012, but during its 37 years of existence, the Emeryville Redevelopment Agency brought about a dramatic transformation of the city from a scrappy industrial town into a modern, mixed-use urban community. The Agency invested over $25 million in the cleanup of 144 acres of contaminated property, the legacy of the City’s industrial past, which won state, federal, and international recognition. Over $192 million in Redevelopment funds were invested in the Capital Improvement Program, including six new parks, the Emeryville Greenway/bike path, public facilities such as the Emeryville Child Development Center, renovation of the Veterans Hall for use by the Senior Center, and production of over 750 units of affordable housing.
During the last two decades of the 20th century and the first two decades of the 21st century, many significant new developments were built. These included the East Bay Bridge and Powell Street Plaza shopping centers, the Pacific Park Plaza condominium tower next to the freeway, mixed use centers at Bay Street and the Public Market, the first IKEA store in Northern California, Pixar Animation Studios, many smaller commercial developments throughout the city, and hundreds of new housing units, many of which are deed-restricted as below market rate (BMR) affordable units.
The City of Art and Innovation
Art has also been an important aspect of civic life in Emeryville. In the 1970s, with the help of the Redevelopment Agency, a group of artists purchased two former industrial buildings and started the 45th Street Artists Cooperative, a limited equity coop where several artists live and work. In 1987, some of these artists founded the Emeryville Celebration of the Arts, an annual art show for Emeryville residents and workers. In the early 1990s, the City Council created the Art in Public Places Program, which requires new developments to include public art and/or to contribute to the City's Public Art Fund.
Under the direction of the City Council-appointed Public Art Committee, this program has funded dozens of public art installations throughout the city. The Art in Public Places Program celebrated its 34th anniversary in 2025.
xxii
In 2009, a new General Plan was adopted,
focusing on “smart” growth, including a
high-density mixed-use core area, an
enhanced network of parks and open
space, and an emphasis on alternative
modes of transportation such as cycling,
walking, and public transit. Current
development trends in Emeryville point to
increased growth in the research and
development sector, particularly the life
sciences, and development of additional
affordable housing. In 2017, the City
Council adopted a new Economic
Development Strategy, focusing on infrastructure (including transit, bicycling, walking, parking management, and broadband), marketing and promotion (including an Art Center, façade grant program, and business incentives), community advancement (including youth programs, affordable housing, jobs training, labor standards, and support for lowincome resident and low-wage earners), and network building. In 2021, the City Council adopted an Affordable Housing Bond Administration and Expenditure Plan which will guide the expenditure of over $64 million across seven separate programs that preserve and produce affordable housing. In 2022, the City Council adopted the 2023-2031 Housing Element of the General Plan, which provides policy support for continued housing production at a variety of income levels.
Guided by the General Plan, Economic Development Strategy, Affordable Housing Expenditure Plan, and other City policies and programs, Emeryville is well positioned to embark on the next phase of its evolution as the City of Art and Innovation. xxiii

The Community Development Commission of Emeryville oversees the City’s economic development efforts, the Management of Emeryville Services Authority (MESA) acts as the employer of the City’s nonpublic safety staff, and the Public Financing Authority is responsible for issuing bonds to finance capital projects. MESA is in the process of being dissolved. This is expected to be finalized and approved by City Council in the next fiscal year (FY25-26). xxv
BUDGET PROCESS AND BASIS OF BUDGETING
BUDGET PROCESS
The budget process begins in December and culminates seven months later with the adoption of the Annual Budget in June.
Mid-Year Budget Review
Work begins in December of each year on the mid-year review. The mid-year review is a detailed analysis of all City revenues and expenditures during the current fiscal year. The mid-year report actual and estimates is published and distributed to the City Council, staff, and the general public for consideration during second half of each fiscal year. The midyear financial analysis provides the financial starting point for the subsequent year’s Operating Budget.
Update General Fund Five-Year Forecast
Preparing accurate General Fund revenue and expenditure forecasts is an important part of the budget process. The update of the five-year forecast of the General Fund begins during the mid-year budget review. The forecast is revised as necessary based on different budgeting scenarios and as more accurate revenue and expenditure data is available during the budget preparation process. The update and revisions occur again once yearend financial statements have been prepared.
Revenue Estimates
Revenue estimates are developed each year using the actual revenues realized from the prior fiscal year and adjusted upwards or downwards based on whether staff has information to suggest such an adjustment is necessary. For example, property taxes are adjusted based on the most recent assessed valuation reports that the City receives from the County. Similarly, the City’s sales tax advisor develops sales tax revenue projections based on trends in various sales categories. Rate based revenues are based on the current rates, recent patterns, and anticipated changes by external influences.
Budget Preparation
Budget packets are distributed by the Finance Department to each City department in January. Departments submit preliminary budget requests to the Finance Department in February/March. During this time all revenue sources are projected. Budget staff reviews departmental requests and compiles the Preliminary Budget. The requested budgets are then presented to Senior Management and the City Manager for review and approval. xxvi
Recommendations and revisions from review sessions are incorporated into the proposed operating budget. The Budget and Governance and Budget Advisory Committees review, make recommendations, and then recommend the proposed operating and capital budgets to the full Council.
After giving due consideration to all feedback, the City Council finalizes and adopts the budget by June 30th.
Five-Year Capital Improvement Program
The City of Emeryville Five-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is a multi-year planning instrument that identifies the construction of new facilities and infrastructure, and for the expansion, rehabilitation, or replacement of existing City-owned assets. Each year a CIP budget is developed in conjunction with the operating budget and reflects changing priorities and funding availability.
Budget Amendments
All changes to the Operating Budget throughout the year require budget amendments which require the following levels of governing body approval:
Items Requiring Council or Agency Action
• Appropriation of fund balance reserves
• Transfers of appropriations between funds
• New inter-fund loans or advances
• Creation of new capital projects
• Transaction which increases total fund expenditures
• Budget modifications in excess of $75,000
Items Delegated to the City Manager or Executive Director Budget modifications up to - $75,000.
Transfers between departments and divisions so that the total fund budget remains the same.
Approval of transfers within funds which increase or decrease salary and benefit appropriations so that the total fund budget remains the same.
Items Delegated to Department Heads
Allocation of departmental appropriations to line items except for salary and benefit appropriations
Changes which exceed current funds disbursement authorizations must be approved by the City Manager/Executive Director. These changes cannot increase the department budget.
xxvii
BASIS OF BUDGETING
Governmental Funds include the General Fund, Special Revenue Funds, Debt Service Funds and Capital Project Funds. The Governmental Funds and the Successor Agency to the Former Redevelopment Agency Funds are accounted for using the modified accrual basis of accounting. Modified accrual accounting recognizes revenues when they become available and measurable and, with a few exceptions, recognizes expenditures when liabilities are incurred. This system divides available funds into separate entities within the organization to ensure that the money is being spent where it was intended.
Proprietary funds include Enterprise Funds and Internal Service Funds. These funds are accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting. Accrual basis of accounting measures the performance and position of the City by recognizing economic events regardless of when cash transactions occur. The general idea is that economic events are recognized by matching revenues to expenses (the matching principle) at the time in which the transaction occurs rather than when payment is made (or received).
The budgetary process is based upon accounting for certain transactions on a basis other than generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP basis). The major difference between the budgetary basis and GAAP basis is that year end encumbrances are recognized as the equivalent of expenditures on the budgetary basis in governmental funds, while encumbered amounts are not recognized as expenditures on the GAAP basis. xxviii

For more systemic and ongoing problems, the fund provides the time needed to fully identify the impacts of the economic downturns and enables the City to develop and implement a thoughtful longer-term strategy to meet these challenges. Effective March 4, 2025, the City Council approved updates to this policy which included merging the Disaster Reserve Fund into the Economic Uncertainty Fund. The City has a goal of maintaing a reserve of 50% of the General Fund annual expenditures budget for the Economic Uncertainty Reserve fund. Appropriations from the reserve funds will be used to address financial challenges including, but not limited to:
1. Economic downturns and uncertainties and local disasters.
2. Budgeted revenue taken by another government entity.
3. Drop in projected/actual revenue of more than 5% of the General Fund adopted revenue budget.
It is the intent of the City Council that the City Manager is permitted to access up to $5 million from this fund without prior council approval in the event of a disaster or similar emergency. When funds in the Economic Uncertainty Reserve fund are used, the goal will be to replenish the fund within three fiscal years if possible. 17 City of Emeryville

➢ FIRE (ALAMEDA COUNTY FIRE DEPARTMENT)
OVERVIEW
Starting in FY 2012-13, the City of Emeryville contracted with the Alameda County Fire Department (ACFD) to provide comprehensive fire services to protect and safeguard life, environment, and property, including “all-risk” services that mitigate the effects of fire, injury, illness, urban search and rescue, water rescue, hazardous materials, storm, human-caused calamity, and natural disaster. The ACFD was formed in 1993 as a special district governed by the Alameda County Board of Supervisors. In addition to Emeryville, the ACFD provides fire services to the unincorporated areas of the county as well as to the cities of Dublin, Newark, San Leandro, Union City, the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), and the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL).
The Alameda County Fire Department provides services to the citizens of Emeryville with four functionally interrelated branches: 1) Operations - fire suppression and special operations, 2) Support Services - emergency medical services, firefighter training, dispatch services, 3) Administrative Services - finance, human resources, and general services, and 4) Fire Prevention.
Additionally, the Department provides emergency response through partnerships and contracts with neighboring jurisdictions, the Alameda County mutual aid system, and the California Fire and Rescue Mutual Aid System. The Department also cooperates extensively with local, state and federal agencies, rendering aid to surrounding jurisdictions and, in turn, receiving aid from those jurisdictions.
ACFD provides access to a breadth of interagency bodies, collaborative initiatives, and special services. ACFD is active in the Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) region, having a dedicated committee voting seat to determine projects and grant money disbursement. ACFD offers the only dedicated fully-staffed 24/7 heavy rescue in the County and the only fully-staffed Type I Hazardous Materials team in the County. ACFD also participates in many large-scale exercises on a regular basis, such as the Golden Guardian, the BAYEX, the federally mandated LLNL and LBNL exercises, and the multi-agency water rescue and hazardous materials exercises. 137

➢ SUCCESSOR AGENCY
ADMINISTRATION
This fund was established to account for the activities of the Successor Agency to the former Redevelopment Agency of the City of Emeryville. The Oversight Board of the Successor Agency to the Former Redevelopment Agency reviews and recommends the proposed Successor Agency budget.
AB1X 26, adopted in June 2011 and amended by AB 1484 in June 2012, requires redevelopment agencies to be dissolved and replaced with Successor Agencies. Successor Agencies are responsible for winding down the affairs of the redevelopment agencies including disposing of their assets. The City is the Successor Agency to the former Emeryville Redevelopment Agency.
Successor Agencies must annually adopt the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedules (ROPS) that identify enforceable obligations consisting of bonds, loans, and payments required by governments (except passthrough payments), court judgments and settlements, legal contracts and agreements, and contracts necessary for continued administration.
DEBT SERVICE FUNDS
These funds were created to account for the accumulation of resources to be used for payments, at appropriate amounts and times, in the future for the settlement of the debt obligations. 221

CITY OF EMERYVILLE
EXPENDITURE AND RESERVE POLICIES
(Updated on March 4, 2025 by the City Council)
GENERAL FUND
Economic Uncertainty Fund
The purpose of the Economic Uncertainty fund is to provide the fiscal capacity to absorb financial problems without disrupting day-to-day City operations and services. For more systemic and ongoing problems, the fund provides the time needed to fully identify the impacts of economic downturns and enables the City to develop and implement a thoughtful longer-term strategy to meet these challenges.
Effective March 4, 2025, the City Council approved updates to this policy which included merging the Disaster Reserve Fund into the Economic Uncertainty Fund. The City has a goal of maintaining a reserve of 50% of the General Fund annual expenditures budget for the Economic Uncertainty Reserve fund.
Appropriations from the reserve fund will be used to address financial challenges including, but not limited to:
• Economic downturns and uncertainties and local disasters. • Budgeted revenue taken by another government entity.
• Drop in projected/actual revenue of more than 5% of the General Fund adopted revenue budget.
It is the intent of the City Council that the City Manager is permitted to access up to $5 million from this fund without prior council approval in the event of a disaster or similar emergency.
When funds in the Economic Uncertainty Reserve fund are used, the goal will be to replenish the fund within three fiscal years if possible.
Unassigned General Fund Balance
The Unassigned General Fund Balance is considered a working capital requirement, bridging the gap between the time expenses are paid and the time revenues are collected. The Unassigned General Fund Balance will be maintained to provide contingencies for unseen operating or capital needs and cash flow requirements.
Effective March 4, 2025, the City Council established a policy that the City has a goal of maintaining an Unassigned General Fund Balance of 20% of the General Fund annual expenditures budget. This represents 2.4 months of General Fund expenditures and is consistent with best practices in local government finance. It also meets and exceeds the Government Finance Officers’ Association (GFOA) policy that local government agencies shall have an amount that equals at least 2 months or 16.7% of General Fund annual expenditures in their Unassigned General Fund Balance.
EMERYVILLE MEASURE F FUNDS
In March 2020, Emeryville voters approved Measure F, a one quarter-cent sales tax levy which has permissible uses that are codified by the measure in Emeryville Municipal Code, Section 3-3.354. Pursuant to these authorizations and limitations, the City Council has adopted the following policies for the expenditure and reserve of Measure F funds.
232
Expenditure Policy
In each budget year, Measure F funds shall be expended in the following order of priority:
(1) Provision of funding for one Code Enforcement Officer position. (2) Provision of funding for one Engineer position in the Public Works Department. (3) Funding to cover the costs of the Emeryville Child Development Center (ECDC), including maintenance of the Measure F Reserve Fund at the Reserve Policy funding level. (4) Funding to support the permissible public safety investments approved by voters, with position designations to be determined by the City Council; and
(5) Any funds not expended in a given budget year for the above priorities shall be allocated to the Measure F Reserve Fund
Reserve Policy/Measure F Reserve Fund
The City shall create and maintain a Measure F Reserve Fund. The primary purpose of this fund is to provide funds to secure the long-term stability of the Emeryville Child Development Center (ECDC) in the event of economic uncertainty.
The City shall maintain a minimum balance of $4 million in the Measure F Reserve Fund. This $4 million is reserved exclusively for the use of supporting the Emeryville Child Development Center. Any funds deposited in the Measure F Reserve Fund in excess of the $4 million minimum shall be reserved for additional public safety staff positions with 50% for additional police officer positions or public safety support positions and 50% for additional firefighter positions.
Real Property Transfer Tax Policy
Real Property Transfer Tax revenues include both the Residential Property Transfer Tax and the Commercial Property Transfer Tax revenues. To the extent that the City Council has adopted any prior policies governing the use of these revenues, those policies are hereby rescinded.
Expenditure Policy
For each budget year, the Real Property Transfer Tax revenuesshall be deposited in the City’s General Fund subject to the following priorities:
(1) At the end of each fiscal year, a contribution from the General Fund shall be made in the amount necessary to replenish the Measure O Critical Needs Fund to a minimum balance of $1 million. (2) Unless otherwise directed by the City Council, at the end of each fiscal year, if the Real Property Transfer Tax revenues exceed their budgeted amount in the General Fund, including budget adjustments made during the fiscal year, 50% of the excess revenues will be allocated to the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and the remaining 50% will be allocated to the City’s unfunded liabilities, including pension liability, Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) and the City’s Section 115 Pension Trust. Allocation of these funds shall be determined by the City Council, upon recommendation of the Budget and Governance Committee and the Budget Advisory Committee. 233
Measure O Critical Needs Fund
The City shall create and maintain a Measure O Critical Needs Fund for the purpose of providing the City with funds to address one-time maintenance and/or service needs for which the costs are not part of the City’s regular budget and which are not reasonably anticipated to be an ongoing cost that should be budgeted as part of the biannual budget process.
The City Manager shall have discretion in authorizing the release of these funds for materials, labor, and contracts necessary to complete or repair a City facility or support an urgent service need up to the City Manager’s approval authority. Priority shall be given to infrastructure maintenance, environmental projects and programs, housing and homelessness services, and public safety services or programs. 234
