Citizens of the City of Fortuna
Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
We are pleased to submit the City of Fortuna’s Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. The city follows a policy of hiring a licensed certified public accountant to conduct an annual audit and to prepare a complete set of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). This annual report is published to fulfill that policy for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025.
Management of the City of Fortuna assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of the information contained in this report, based upon a comprehensive frame-work of internal control that the city has established for this purpose. Because the cost of internal control should not exceed anticipated benefits, the objective is to provide reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that the city’s financial statements are free of material misstatements.
The firm of O’Connor & Company, has issued an unmodified independent auditor’s report on the City of Fortuna’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. The independent auditor’s report is located at the front of the financial section of this report.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) immediately follows the independent auditor’s report and provides a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis of the basic financial statements. The MD&A complements this letter of transmittal and should be read in conjunction with it.
PROFILE OF THE CITY AND ITS OPERATIONS
The City of Fortuna is located on the North Coast of California seven (7) miles inland from the Pacific Ocean to the west and 253 miles north of San Francisco on U.S. Route 101. Fortuna is surrounded by national, state and county redwood parks and is the gateway to the redwood forests of Northern California. The City has a large number of events and festivals including Art & Wine in the Park, the Annual Fortuna Rodeo, Redwood AutoXpo, Apple Harvest, Hops in Humboldt Festival, and the Fortuna Concert Series. There are many holiday events for both young and old including concerts and parades.
The City of Fortuna was incorporated in 1906 and is home to approximately 12,000 individuals. The city’s boundaries encompass 4.8 square miles with a population that has been growing by an average rate of one-percent (1%) annually over the last decade.
Education, health care, and government services are the largest employment categories followed by retail trade and construction. Timber harvesting and production is no longer the driving economic factor on the North Coast. Agriculture, health care, education, and government jobs have filled the void left by the timber industry with a mix of retail sales and hospitality services increasingly supporting our local economy.
The city operates under a council-manager form of government. Policy making and legislative authority are vested in the City Council consisting of the Mayor and four other elected Council members. The Council is responsible, among other matters, for passing ordinances, adopting the city budget, appointing committees, and hiring the City Manager. The City Manager is responsible for carrying out the policies and ordinances of the City Council, for overseeing the daily operations of the city, and for appointing other employees. The Council is elected to four year staggered terms, with 2-3 members elected every two years. The Mayor is selected by and serves at the pleasure of the City Council for a two-year term. i
May 5, 2026
The city provides a full range of municipal services including police protection; construction and maintenance of city streets; storm drains, and similar infrastructure; park maintenance; community recreation activities; water and wastewater utilities; and a transit system.
The annual budget serves as the foundation for the City of Fortuna’s financial planning and control system.
The budget process is the vehicle through which the city establishes goals and objectives, and prioritizes the desired programs or services that the city provides and which can be financed by the city’s anticipated revenue for the budget period. The annual budget is categorized by fund, function (e.g., supplies, services), and department (e.g., police, public works). The budget is the means through which policy decisions are made, effected, controlled and monitored. The City Manager is responsible for submitting and recommending an operating budget and a capital improvements budget for City Council consideration and adoption. Throughout the year, the budget serves as a financial management tool and an operational plan for the delivery of city services and capital projects.
In addition to the budget planning process the city maintains budgetary controls. The city’s objective in maintaining budgetary control is to ensure compliance with legal provisions embodied in the annual appropriated budget approved by the City Council. The City Manager is authorized to transfer budgeted amounts within funds as deemed necessary in order to meet the city’s needs subject to policy defined in the city’s administrative regulations. The City Council may amend the budget by resolution during the fiscal year.
The city maintains an encumbrance accounting system as one technique of accomplishing budgetary control. Purchase orders, contracts, and other commitments for expenditure of money are secured in order to reserve that portion of the applicable appropriation. Total expenditures of each fund may not exceed fund appropriations and total expenditures for each department may not exceed departmental appropriations.
Unencumbered amounts lapse at year-end and may be appropriated as part of the following year’s budget.
Financial statements contained in the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (“ACFR”) include budget to actual comparisons that are required supplementary information. Comparisons are presented for the general fund and other major governmental funds for which an appropriated annual budget has been adopted. Budget to actual comparisons are also presented for the city’s non-major funds in the supplemental information section of this report.
LOCAL ECONOMY
The city’s general fund sales tax revenue recognized a loss this fiscal period. City-wide retail sales subject to tax decreased to $232 million over the year; a decrease of approximately $5 million over the previous fiscal year.
The unemployment rate for 2025 increased to 3.5% - the highest unemployment rate seen in the last 10 years was in 2021 when the unemployment rate was 7.9%. Property values remain stable with a slight increase as compared to the previous fiscal period. Looking forward, the city’s 2025-26 budget reflects a continued conservative approach. The city anticipates ongoing economic recovery and will carefully monitor revenue to match and prioritize city services within available revenues. ii

MAJOR INITIATIVES
Capital Projects
The City of Fortuna is committed to investing in the city’s future by improving and repairing essential water and sewer infrastructure projects, disability access improvements and more. Prior to fiscal year 2025 the city leveraged state grants, former Redevelopment Agency bond loan proceeds, and storm drainage funds to complete the nearly $6.5 million of improvements to the Rohner Creek Flood Control and Riparian Habitat Improvement Project. The project was successfully completed in fiscal year 2018. Upon the completion of that project the City was able to move forward with the almost $2.5 million Hillside Creek Flood Control Project which was completed in 2020. This project was 75% funded by a FEMA grant. Upon completion of these projects, in fiscal year 2021, the City submitted an updated Flood Mapping to FEMA and was successful in removing hundreds of homes out of the flood plain.
Redevelopment Dissolution
Pursuant to ABx 1 26 (“AB 26”), the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Fortuna (“Agency”) was dissolved on February 1, 2012. The former Agency is now administered by the Successor Agency to the Former Redevelopment Agency of the City of Fortuna. The Successor Agency continues to wind down the affairs of the former Redevelopment Agency. The City of Fortuna Oversight Board was dissolved and replaced by a Countywide Oversight Board pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 34179 (j). The new Countywide Oversight Board continues to meet regularly to review and approve the annual Recognized Obligation Payments Schedule (ROPs) request submitted to the California Department of Finance, as well as other business activity related to the Successor Agency.
ACKNOWLEGEMENTS
The preparation of this report could not be accomplished without the efficient and dedicated service of the entire staff of the finance department, the auditing services of O’Connor & Company, and the cooperation of the various city departments. I would also like to acknowledge and thank the City Council and the City Manager for their continued support and leadership in responsibly managing the City of Fortuna’s financial operations.
Respectfully submitted,
Aaron Felmlee, Finance Director

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
To the Honorable Members
of the City Council
City of Fortuna
Fortuna, California
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information, of the City of Fortuna, California as of and for the year ended June 30, 2025, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise City of Fortuna’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of City of Fortuna, as of June 30, 2025, and the respective changes in financial position and where applicable, cash flows thereof, for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City of Fortuna, and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about City of Fortuna’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months beyond the financial statement date, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinions.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Unites States of America will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.

In performing an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Unites States of America, we:
Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of Fortuna’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements. Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about City of Fortuna’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management’s Discussion and Analysis, which follows this report letter, and the required supplementary information listed in the table of contents be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of the financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context.
We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise City of Fortuna’s basic financial statements. The accompanying supplementary information, as listed in the Table of Contents, is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements.
The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information included in the annual report. The other information comprises the Introductory Section and Statistical Section listed in the Table of Contents but does not include the basic financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Our opinions on the basic financial statements do not cover the other information, and we do not express an opinion or any form of assurance thereon.
Board of Directors

In connection with our audit of the basic financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and consider whether a material inconsistency exists between the other information and the basic financial statements, or the other information otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work performed, we conclude that an uncorrected material misstatement of the other information exists, we are required to describe it in our report.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

INTRODUCTION
This section of the City of Fortuna’s (the City’s) annual financial report presents discussion and analysis of the City's financial performance during the fiscal year that ended on June 30, 2025. Please read this analysis in conjunction with the transmittal letter contained in the front of this report and the City’s financial statements, which follow this section.
Financial Highlights
The City's total net position continued to improve during the 2024-25 fiscal year with an increase of $2.84 million at the end of the fiscal period. Net position is the difference between the City’s assets and liabilities.
● The Successor Agency (Former Redevelopment Agency) continues to move forward with the completion of “winding down” the City’s former redevelopment activities. The City’s general funds earned $10.89 million in revenues during the 2024-25 fiscal year with $10.51 million in total expenditures, which resulted in an excess of revenues over expenditures of $382 thousand. The citizens of Fortuna approved a ¾ cent sales tax measure, Measure E, on the November 8, 2016 ballot. Revenues from Measure E accounted for $1.92 million of the $10.89 million total general fund revenues. Measure E is a general tax that went into effect on April 1, 2017 and is set to terminate on March 31st, 2033.
The fiscal period ending June 30, 2025, resulted in a general fund balance of $12.90 million with $5.4 million reported as unassigned (See pg. 14-15 for details). The City has designated about $7.5 million from the end of year fund balance as stabilization reserves for contingencies and cash flow shortfalls. The City’s water and wastewater programs generated approximately $7.84 million in user fees. Utility fees continue to support daily operations, debt service, and capital improvement projects. The net position of the water enterprise increased by 4.39 percent to $17.4 million and the wastewater enterprise net position increased by 5.55 percent to $28.6 million indicating stable growth and management of the City’s vital utility services.
OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (“ACFR”) consists of four main components: (1) the independent auditor’s report and management’s discussion and analysis; (2) the basic financial statements and notes to the financial statements; (3) required supplementary information; and (4) combining fund financial statements. The basic financial statements include two types of statements that present different views of the City; the government-wide and the fund financial statements. The government-wide financial statements provide both long-term and short-term information regarding the City’s overall financial status.
The fund financial statements focus on individual parts of city government, reporting the City’s operations in more detail than the government-wide statements.
The basic financial statements also include notes that provide additional information essential to understanding the data contained in the government-wide and fund financial statements. The statements and notes are followed by required supplementary information, including budgetary comparison schedules for the general fund and other major governmental funds. In addition to these required elements, we have included combining statements and schedules that provide details about the City’s non-major funds.

Figure A-1 summarizes the major features of the City's financial statements, including the portion of the City government they cover and the types of information they contain. The remainder of this overview section of management’s discussion and analysis explains the structure and contents of each of the statements.

Government-Wide Statements
Government-wide statements report information similar to those used by private-sector companies. Current year revenues and expenditures are accounted for in the statement of activities on a full accrual basis regardless of when cash is actually received or disbursed.
The government-wide financial statements provide a broad overview of the City’s activities as a whole.
These financial statements are comprised of the:
1) Statement of Net Position - Includes all of the City’s assets and liabilities and is used to measure total economic resources. Net position is the difference between the City’s assets and liabilities.
Over time, increases or decreases in the net position is an indicator of whether the City’s financial health is improving or deteriorating.
2) The Statement of Activities - Provides information regarding the City’s total revenues and full accrual expenses and is critical in measuring the net revenues and expenses (including depreciation) of each of the City’s programs.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- 6 -
The government-wide financial statements of the City are divided into two categories:
Governmental activities – The majority of the City's basic services are reported as governmental activities, including general government, police, streets, public works, parks and recreation. Activities are primarily financed with property taxes, sales taxes, transient occupancy taxes, user charges and fees, and state and federal grants.
Business-type activities – The City's water, wastewater, and transit systems are reported as businesstype activities. These programs are financed with user fees and transit subsidies that are intended to cover the long-term costs of services including capital infrastructure and debt financing.
Fund Financial Statements
A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control and monitor resources that have been segregated or “restricted” for specific activities or objectives. The City, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of the City can be divided into two categories: governmental funds and proprietary funds. The concept of major funds, and the determination of which are major funds is established by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). Governmental funds – Most of the City's basic services are included in governmental funds which focus on (1) How cash and other financial assets can readily be converted to cash flow; and (2) the balances left at year-end that are available for spending. Consequently, the governmental funds statements provide a detailed short-term view that helps determine whether there are more or fewer financial resources that can be spent in the near future to finance the City's programs. Because this information does not encompass the additional long-term focus of the government-wide statements, additional information is included at the bottom of the governmental funds statement, or on subsequent pages, that explain the relationship (or differences) between them. Proprietary funds – Services for which the City charges customers a fee are generally reported in proprietary funds. Proprietary funds, like the government-wide statements, provide both long and shortterm financial information. Similarly, the City's enterprise funds (one type of proprietary fund) are essentially equal to its business-type activities, but provide more detail and information such as cash flow.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE CITY AS A WHOLE
Net Position. The City’s total combined net position increased $2.84 million during the 2024-25 fiscal year.
See Table A-1 below:
The net position of the City’s governmental activities increased by 1.00 percent to $55.3 million during the 2024-25 fiscal year. The City currently does not have any long-term debt related to assets used in its governmental activities. Net capital assets for governmental activities increased to $26.1 million at yearend.
The net position of the City’s business-type activities increased by approximately $2.3 million this fiscal year to $46.1 million. Assets generated from business-type activities are restricted to supporting the continuing operations of the City’s utility and transit services.
Combined Revenues and Expenditures
City revenues increased overall by seven percent (7%), ending the year with a combined total of $26.3 million. In comparing revenues to the previous fiscal year, it is important to consider that there was an increase in charges for service revenue in the water and wastewater funds of $1.5 million from the previous fiscal year. This increase in water and wastewater revenues nearly accounted for the entire increase in overall revenues. (See Table A-2.)

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- 8 -
The total cost of City programs and services increased by $2.4 million to $23.5 million during fiscal year ending 2025, an increase of twelve percent (12%). Costs cover a variety of services with approximately 43% of total costs attributed to business-type activities (water, wastewater, and transit) and the remaining 57% related to general government, public safety, streets, parks and recreation programs, and other services provided to the community.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- 9 -
Contributions increased by seven percent (7%) during the 2024-25 fiscal year. Most of this increase was due to an increase in charges for service revenue in the water and wastewater funds. Business-type activities saw a total of $12.4 million in revenues finance operating costs of $10.1 million, which provided cash flow for principal payments on water and wastewater revenue bonds and continued investment in capital improvement projects to maintain the City’s water and wastewater infrastructure.
The cost of the City’s governmental activities this year was $13.3 million, an increase of $1.6 million or
13.2%, compared to last fiscal year as presented in Table A-2. The cost of the City’s business type activities this year was $10.1 million, an increase of $0.9 million or 9.0%, compared to last fiscal year as presented in Table A-2. Water and Wastewater expenses accounted for all of the $1.0 million increase. These increased costs were primarily for capital outlay and infrastructure improvements.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE FUND STATEMENTS
The City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements and regulations. The fund financial statements focus on individual parts of city government to report city operations in more detail than the government-wide statements.
Governmental Funds
The general fund, HOME fund, and city housing fund are reported as major governmental funds.
Other non-major governmental fund programs include gas tax(s), storm drain maintenance, federal and state grants, debt service, and capital projects.
The general fund reported $10.9 million in tax, intergovernmental, fee and other revenues during the year. These revenues supported $5.4 million in public safety programs, $1.7 million to support parks and recreation programs and services, and the remainder supported streets, capital improvement projects, and general administration. The general fund had a fund balance of $12.9 million at year-end.
The City’s HOME grant fund continues to administer an approximate $10.5 million portfolio of federally funded housing loans. No new loans were extended during the year. The City continues to administer a $3.5 million portfolio of low-to-moderate income housing loans that were originally funded by Community Development Block Grants (“CDBG”) and by set-aside requirements of the former redevelopment agency. Administration of these assets is a result of the City’s ongoing commitment to support low and moderate income housing programs within city limits.
Business-Type Funds
The water fund earned $3.1 million in user fees during the year to support operating costs, debt service, and capital improvements.
The wastewater fund earned $4.7 million in user fees during the year to support operating costs, debt service, maintenance costs and investments in system improvements. The nonmajor transit fund earned over $25,000 in fees during the 2024-25 fiscal period. Operating subsidies of over $447,000 combined with user fees supports the operating costs necessary to provided essential transportation services to city residents.

PENSION ACCOUNTING MATTERS
The City’s overall actuarially determined net pension liability was $10.22 million at the end of fiscal year 2025. Compared to $10.44 million at the end of fiscal year 2024. Additional information on the City’s pension liability and related matters can be found in Note 5E to the CAFR.
ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR’S BUDGET
Fortuna has weathered the economic impacts and reverberations of COVID-19 and unanticipated natural disasters. However, caution is needed in the years ahead. The City’s Measure P, which would have authorized an additional 0.75% sales tax, was not approved by the voters of Fortuna. This will severely limit the ability of the City to maintain City services in future years as the impacts of inflation continue to take grip on the City’s expenses.
Future year expenditures are expected to continue to face cost pressures in maintaining existing and essential services to city residents. In particular, energy, pension, and health benefit costs have increased significantly over the past decade and are projected to increase again in 2025-26 and beyond. As the City monitors budget results during the current fiscal period; Council and staff are mindful to be financially prudent when prioritizing the services that are sustainable with existing revenue streams such as property and sales tax, grants, and fees for services.

However, in the statement of activities the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense. This is the amount by which capital outlays ($1,983,540) exceeds depreciation ($1,831,220) in the current period. 152,320
LONG-TERM LIABILITIES PROCEEDS AND PAYMENTS
Repayment of debt principal is an expenditure in the governmental funds, but the repayment reduces long-term liabilities in the statement of net position. 23,196
The recording of accrued compensated absences does not require the use of current financial resources and, therefore, is not reported as expenditures in governmental funds. The liability is included in the statement of activities. (13,663)
Long-term receivables are deferred in the funds until collected and available for use. In the statement of activities, no revenues are recognized from the collection of receivables. (171,105)
The net change in pension expense either contributed to pension plan in current fiscal year not included on statement of activities; or expenses reported in statement of activities that do not require the use of current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in governmental funds.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Reporting Entity
The City of Fortuna (the City) is a municipal corporation governed by an elected five-member City Council. The accompanying financial statements present the government and its blended component units, entities for which the City is considered to be financially accountable.
Blended Component Units - The Fortuna Public Financing Authority is a separate legal entity created for the purpose of improving the economic conditions of the City, making public improvements and providing financing for these purposes. This entity is governed by the City Council of the City of Fortuna and is therefore reported as if it was part of the City. The Authority is reported as part of the City’s special revenue, capital projects and debt service funds. The component unit redevelopment agency was dissolved effective February 1, 2012, and all residual assets and liabilities are reported as private purpose fiduciary funds.
B. Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the statement of activities) report information on all the non-fiduciary activities of the City. For the most part, the effect of interfund activity has been removed from these statements. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on fees and charges for support.
The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment are offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. Program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues.
Fund Financial Statements - The underlying accounting system of the City is organized and operated based on separate funds, each of which is a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for with a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues and expenditures or expenses, as appropriate. Governmental resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purposes for which they are to be spent and how spending activities are controlled.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds, even though the latter are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. Major individual governmental funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements.
C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Basis of Presentation The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the proprietary fund financial statements. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied.
Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met.
Proprietary Funds - the City’s Enterprise Funds are proprietary funds. In the fund financial statements, proprietary funds are presented using the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized when they are earned, and expenses are recognized when the related goods or services are delivered.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Basis of Presentation (continued) In the fund financial statements, proprietary funds are presented using the economic resources measurement focus. This means that all assets and all liabilities (whether current or non-current) associated with their activity are included on their balance sheets. Proprietary fund type operating statements present increases (revenues) and decreases (expenses) in total net position.
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities for the current period. For this purpose, the City considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period.
Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due.
Because of their spending measurement focus, expenditure recognition for governmental fund types excludes amounts represented by non-current liabilities. Since they do not affect net current assets, such long-term amounts are not recognized as governmental fund type expenditures or fund liabilities.
Amounts expended to acquire capital assets are recorded as expenditures in the year resources were expended, rather than as fund assets. The proceeds of long-term debt are recorded as other financing sources rather than as a fund liability. Amounts paid to reduce long-term indebtedness are reported as fund expenditures.
Property taxes, sales taxes, transient occupancy taxes, licenses, and interest associated with the current fiscal period are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period. All other revenue items are measurable and available only when cash is received by the government.
The City reports on the following major funds:
General Fund - the City’s primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the general government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
HOME Grant Fund - To account for grants and loans related to multi-family affordable housing projects.
City Housing Fund - To account for low- and moderate-income housing programs, and the residual assets from the dissolution of the housing fund of the City’s dissolved redevelopment agency.
The City reports on the following major proprietary funds:
Water and Wastewater Funds – To account for the sewage treatment plant, sewage pumping stations and collection systems, and the water distribution system.
As a rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements. Exceptions to this general rule are payments-in-lieu of taxes and other charges between the government’s water and wastewater function and various other functions of the government.
Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported for the various functions concerned.
Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods, services, or privileges provided, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital grants and contributions. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program revenues. Likewise, general revenues include all taxes.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Basis of Presentation (concluded) Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund’s principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the City’s water and wastewater enterprise funds are charges to the customers for sales and services.
The enterprise funds also recognize as operating revenue the portion of tap fees, connection fees and impact fees intended to recover the cost of connecting new customers to the system. Operating expenses for enterprise funds include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating revenues and expenses.
Bond Premiums and Discounts/Issuance Costs for government-wide financial statements and proprietary funds financial statements - issuance costs are recognized during the current period. Any bond premiums and discounts are capitalized and amortized over the life of the bonds. Bond proceeds, premiums and discounts are reported as other financing sources in the governmental fund financial statements.
Fiduciary Funds
Trust Funds and Agency Funds are used to account for assets held by the City as an agent or trustee for individuals, private organizations, and other governments. The Successor Agency Private-purpose Trust Funds account for receipt of incremental property tax and payment of enforceable obligations (debts) assumed by the Successor Agency from the former Redevelopment Agency. The financial activities of these funds are excluded from the Government-wide financial statements but are presented in separate Fiduciary Fund financial statements.
D. Assets, Liabilities, Net Position or Equity
Deposits and Investments
The City’s cash and cash equivalents are cash on hand, demand deposits, and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition. State statutes authorize the City to invest in obligations of the U.S. Treasury, commercial paper, corporate bonds, repurchase agreements, the State Treasurer’s Investment Pool, the Humboldt County Treasurer’s Pool and other permitted investments.
Investments for the City are reported at fair value. The State Treasurer’s Investment Pool and the Humboldt County Treasurer’s Pool operate in accordance with appropriate state laws and regulations.
The reported value in the pools is the same as the fair value of the pool shares.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) D. Assets, Liabilities, Net Position or Equity (continued) Receivables and Payables
Activity between funds that are representative of lending/borrowing arrangements outstanding at the end of the fiscal year are referred to as either “due to/from other funds” (i.e., the current portion of interfund loans) or “advances to/from other funds” (i.e., the non-current portion of interfund loans). All other outstanding balances between funds are reported as “due to/from other funds.” Any residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and business-type activities are reported in the government-wide financial statements as “internal balances.” Advances between funds, as reported in the fund financial statements, are offset by a fund balance reserve account in applicable government funds to indicate that they are not available for appropriation and are not expendable available financial resources.
All trade and property tax receivables are not shown net of an allowance for uncollectibles.
Expenditures for long-term notes receivable are reported in the fund statements when made; and the related receivable is recorded as an asset in the fund statements but is offset by deferred inflows of resources accounts until the receivables are realized by the funds. Long-term receivables are recorded as assets in the statement of net position when the transaction is consummated by the City and are not offset by deferred inflows of resources accounts.
Property Taxes
Property taxes are levied as of March 1 on property values assessed as of the same date. State statutes provide that the property tax rate be limited generally to one percent of market value, be levied by only the County, and be shared by applicable jurisdictions. The County of Humboldt collects the taxes and distributes them to taxing jurisdictions based on assessed valuations subject to voter-approved debt.
Property taxes are due on November 1 and March 1, and become delinquent on December 10 and April
10. The City receives property taxes pursuant to an arrangement with the County known as the “Teeter Plan”. Under the plan, the County assumes responsibility for the collection of delinquent taxes and pays the full allocation to the City. The City recognizes property tax revenues in the fiscal year in which they are due to the City.
Leases Receivable
The City is a lessor for leases of ground space. The City recognizes leases receivable and deferred inflows of resources in the financial statements. Variable payments based on future performance of the lessee or usage of the underlying asset are not included in the measurement of the lease receivable.
At the commencement of a lease, the City initially measures the lease receivable at the present value of payments expected to be received during the lease term. Subsequently, the lease receivable is reduced by the principal portion of lease payments received. The deferred inflows of resources are initially measured as the initial amount of the lease receivable, adjusted for lease payments received at or before the lease commencement date. Subsequently, the deferred inflows of resources are recognized as revenue over the life of the lease term in a systematic and rational method.
Key estimates and judgments include how the City determines (1) the discount rate it uses to discount the expected lease receipts to present value, (2) lease term, and (3) lease receipts. The City uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases.
The lease term includes the non-cancellable period of the lease. Lease receipts included in the measurement of the lease receivable are composed of fixed payments from the lessee. The City monitors changes in circumstances that would require a remeasurement of its lease and will remeasure the lease receivable and deferred inflows of resources if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the lease receivable.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) D. Assets, Liabilities, Net Position or Equity (continued) Inventories and Prepaid Items
All inventories are valued at cost using the first-in/first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories of governmental funds are recorded as expenditures when purchased. Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items in both government-wide and fund financial statements.
Capital Assets
Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment, and infrastructure assets (e.g., roads, bridges, sidewalks, and similar items), are reported in the applicable governmental or business-type activities columns in the government-wide financial statements. Capital assets are defined by the City as assets with an initial, individual cost of more than $5,000 for equipment and vehicles and $10,000 for other capital assets having an estimated useful life more than one year. Such assets are recorded at historical cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed.
Donated capital assets are recorded at estimated fair market value at the date of donation. Under the GASB 34 Implementation Rules, the City was not required to record infrastructure assets existing or acquired prior to July 1, 2003; and the City has not recorded such assets. The City may elect to record such infrastructure assets in the future. The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of an asset or materially extend assets lives are not capitalized.
Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed. Interest incurred during the construction phase of capital assets of business-type activities is included as part of the capitalized value of the assets constructed.
Property, plant, and equipment of the City are depreciated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Buildings and improvements 25 years
Public domain infrastructure 20 years
System infrastructure 15-50 years
Vehicles and equipment 5 years
Compensated Absences
The City adopted a new accounting pronouncement, GASB Statement No. 101, Compensated Absences, for the year ended June 30, 2025. The implementation of this new accounting standard did not have a material impact on the City’s financial statements but resulted in an updated presentation of the financial statements and related disclosures in the notes to the financial statements.
City employees earn vacation, compensatory time, floating holidays, and management leave in accordance with City policies. These balances are recorded when earned and are fully payable upon termination of employment. Employees also earn sick leave benefits in accordance with City policies. A liability is recognized for the portion of accumulated sick leave that is more likely than not to be used or paid. Management evaluates sick leave for employees to determine the amount that is probable to be used or paid, considering historical usage, forfeitures, payments, and City policies related to compensated absences. Compensated absences are measured at the estimated amount payable, including salary-related payments such as the employer’s share of Social Security and Medicare taxes.
Compensated absences activity is presented on a net increase (decrease) basis as permitted by GASB Statement 101.
Long-term Obligations
In the government-wide financial statements and proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, business-type activities, or proprietary fund type statement of net position.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) D. Assets, Liabilities, Net Position or Equity (continued) Bond Premiums Discounts/Issuance Costs for Governmental-wide Financial Statements and Proprietary Funds Financial Statements
Issuance costs are recognized during the current period. Any bond premiums and discounts are capitalized and amortized over the life of the bonds. Bond proceeds, premiums and discounts are reported as other financing sources in the governmental fund financial statements.
Deferred Outflows and Inflows of Resources
Pursuant to GASB Statement 63, Financial Reporting of Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position, and GASB Statement 65, Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities, the City recognizes deferred outflows and inflows of resources.
In addition to assets, the Statement of Net Position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. A deferred outflow of resources is defined as a consumption of net position by the government that is applicable to a future reporting period.
In addition to liabilities, the Statement of Net Position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. A deferred inflow of resources is defined as an acquisition of net position by the City that is applicable to a future reporting period.
Pensions
For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the State of California Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) and additions to or deductions from the PERS fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the PERS. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value.
Use of Estimates
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and as such, include amounts based on informed estimates and judgments of management with consideration given to materiality. Actual results could differ from those amounts.
Net Position
GASB Statement 34 added the concept of Net Position, which is measured on the full accrual basis, to the concept of Fund Balance, which is measured on the modified accrual basis. Net Position is the excess of all City assets over its liabilities, regardless of fund. Net Position is divided into three captions under GASB Statement 34. These captions apply only to Net Position, which is determined only at the Government-wide level, and are described below:
Net Investment in Capital assets describes the portion of Net Position that is represented by the current book value of the City’s capital assets, less the outstanding balance of any debt issued to finance these assets.
Restricted describes the portion of Net Position that is restricted as to use by the terms and conditions of agreements outside parties, governmental regulations, laws, or other restrictions that the City cannot unilaterally alter. These principally include developer fees received for use on capital projects, debt service requirements, and redevelopment funds restricted to low- and moderate-income purposes.
Unrestricted describes the portion of Net Position that is not restricted as to use.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (concluded) D. Assets, Liabilities, Net Position or Equity (concluded) Net Position Flow Assumption
The City’s policy is to first apply restricted resources when an expense is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted net position is available.
Fund Balances - Governmental Funds
Fund balances for governmental funds are reported in classifications based primarily on the extent to which the City is bound to honor constraints about the specific purposes for which amounts in those funds can be spent. These classifications include (1) non-spendable, (2) restricted, (3) committed, (4) assigned and (5) unassigned amounts.
Nonspendable amounts are generally items not expected to be converted into cash within a short period of time such that the cash would not be available to pay reported liabilities of the current period. These non-spendable items typically include inventories, prepayments, long-term receivables not offset by deferred revenue accounts, and advances by the City to its component unit redevelopment agency.
Restricted amounts include those where the constraints placed on the uses or resources are externally imposed by grantors, contributors, other governments or by laws and regulations. Committed amounts are those that can only be used for a specific purpose as determined by the City Council. Such committed amounts may be redeployed for other uses only by the direction of the City Council. Assigned amounts are fund balance amounts constrained by the City’s intent to be used for specific purposes as determined by the City’s Finance Director or City Manager. Assigned amounts can be redeployed for other uses by direction of the City Manager or Finance Director. Unassigned fund balance amounts are the residual amounts of the General Fund only or funds having deficit fund balances.
Fund Balance Flow Assumption
When expenditure is incurred for which both restricted and unrestricted (committed, assigned or unassigned) amounts are available, the City considers restricted amounts to have been spent first.
When expenditures are incurred for which any class of unrestricted fund balance could be used, the City considers committed amounts would be reduced first, followed by assigned amounts, and then unassigned amounts.
Fund Balance and Net Position Deficits
The following funds had deficit fund balances at June 30, 2025. Deficits will be covered by future revenues and/or General Fund transfers.
Special Revenue Funds
Fund 240 Abatement
The Special Revenue funds are expected to have their deficit eliminated through various government grant reimbursements and transfers from the General Fund.
NOTE 2 - RECONCILIATION OF GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS A. Explanation of Certain Differences Between the Governmental Fund Balance Sheet and the Government-wide Statement of Net Position
The governmental fund balance sheet includes a reconciliation between fund balance — total governmental funds and net position — governmental activities as reported in the government-wide statements of net position. One element of that reconciliation explains that “capital assets are not financial resources and are not reported in the funds.” The details of this $26,115,284 difference are as follows:

NOTE 3 - STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY
Budgetary Information
Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles for all governmental funds. All annual appropriations lapse at fiscal year-end. On or before the end of each fiscal year, all agencies of the City submit requests for appropriations to the City Manager so that a budget may be prepared. By May 15 of each year, the proposed budget is presented to the Council for review. The Council holds public hearings, and a final budget must be prepared and adopted no later than June 30.
The appropriated budget is prepared by fund, function, and department. The City’s department heads may make transfers of appropriations within a department. Transfers of appropriations between departments require the approval of the City Manager. The legal level of budgetary control (i.e., the level at which expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations) is the fund level. The Council made no supplemental budgetary appropriations during the fiscal year. Encumbrance accounting is not employed in governmental funds. The General Fund expenditures were under appropriations by $830,858.
Elimination of Interfund Activity
During operations, the City has activity between funds for various purposes. Any residual balances outstanding at year end are reported as due from/to other funds and advances to/from other funds.
While these balances are reported in fund financial statements, certain eliminations are made in the preparation of the government-wide financial statements. Balances between the funds included in governmental activities (i.e., the governmental funds and internal service funds) are eliminated so that only the net amount is included as internal balances in the governmental activities’ column. Similarly, balances between the funds included in business-type activities (i.e., the enterprise funds) are eliminated so that only the net amount is included as internal balances in the business-type activities column.
Further, certain activity occurs during the year involving transfers of resources between funds. In fund financial statements these amounts are reported at gross amounts as transfers in/out. While reported in fund financial statements, certain eliminations are made in the preparation of the government-wide financial statements. Transfers between the funds included in governmental activities are eliminated so that only the net amount is included as transfers in the governmental activities’ column. Similarly, balances between the funds included in business-type activities are eliminated so that only the net amount is included as internal balances in the business-type activities column.

Total cash and investments $ 30,578,495 $ 1,025,000 $ 8,486,688 Interest Rate Risk - As a means of limiting its exposure to fair value losses arising from rising interest rates, the City has a formal policy which limits City purchased investments to securities having a remaining maturity date from time of purchase to five years or less.
Credit Risk - The City’s investment policy limits investments in mutual and money market funds to the top two ratings issued by nationally recognized statistical ratings organizations. Investments in obligations explicitly guaranteed by the U.S. Government are not considered to have credit risk and do not require the disclosure of credit quality. The Local Agency Investment Fund and Humboldt County Treasurer’s Investment Pool are unrated. The JP Morgan Money Market Fund was rated AAA.
Concentration of Credit Risk - Investments explicitly guaranteed by the U.S. Government and investments in mutual funds, and external investment pools such as those held by the City are excluded from concentration of credit risk disclosures.
Custodial Credit Risk - Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution, a government will not be able to recover its deposits or will not be able to recover collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. The custodial credit risk for deposits and investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty (e.g., brokerdealer) to a transaction, a government will not be able to recover the value of its investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of another party.
The California Government Code requires California banks and savings and loan associations to secure an entity's deposits by pledging government securities with a value of 110% of an entity's deposits.
California law also allows financial institutions to secure entity deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of an entity’s total deposits. The entity's Treasurer may waive the collateral requirement for deposits which are fully insured up to $250,000 by the FDIC. The collateral for deposits in federal and state-chartered banks is held in safekeeping by an authorized agent of depository recognized by the State of California Department of Banking. The collateral for deposits with savings and loan associations is generally held in safekeeping by the Federal Home Loan Bank in San Francisco, California as an agent of depository. These securities are physically held in an undivided pool for all California public agency depositors.
Under Government Code Section 53655, the placement of securities by a bank or savings and loan association with an agent of depositor has the effect of perfecting the security interest in the name of the local government agency. Accordingly, all collateral held by California agents of depository is held for, and in the name of, the local government.

Fair Value Measurements - GASB Statement No. 72, Fair Value Measurements and Application, establishes a fair value hierarchy consisting of three broad levels: Level 1 inputs consist of quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets and liabilities in active markets that a government can access at the measurement date, Level 2 inputs consist of inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for an asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, that can include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active or inactive markets, or market-corroborated inputs, and Level 3 inputs have the lowest priority and consist of unobservable inputs for an asset or liability. The valuation method used for rental properties is the Leased Fee Market method, which is dependent on the income generated from the rental properties. The City did not have any investments subject to the recurring fair value measurements as of June 30, 2025.

Total uncollectible amounts related to revenues of the current period are not material at year-end.
Long-term notes receivable of $15,173,580 consists of two notes relating to affordable housing projects for $10,569,604 (with accumulated and unpaid interest) and various other notes for $4,602,906 relating to business development and redevelopment projects. The notes for $10,569,604 bear interest at 3 percent per annum, mature in 55 years, and are repayable annually to the extent that the housing projects have residual receipts with the unpaid balance due at maturity. The notes are secured by a deed of trust on the housing projects. The other notes are generally repayable in monthly installments of principal and interest at various rates and terms.
The loan receivable of $1,222,961 in the General Fund is the amount determined to be an enforceable obligation of the successor agency to the former redevelopment agency of the City. When the redevelopment agency was dissolved in fiscal year 2012, previously approved loans between the City and the former redevelopment agency were deemed to not be an enforceable obligation of the successor agency under the dissolution rules and were written off at that time. The Dissolution Act further provided that after a successor agency receives a Finding of Completion by the California Department of Finance, such previously disallowed loans may be deemed to be enforceable obligations of the successor agency and repayable to the City. The successor agency has received its Finding of Completion, and the Oversight Board has approved the loan agreement and its validity as an enforceable obligation.
The loan is repayable in semiannual installments to the extent that funds are available under the formulabased method specified in the dissolution rules which also contain a provision that 20 percent of any such repayment shall be placed by the City in its Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Fund.

C. Leases Receivable
The City leases ground space to Verizon Wireless. The Lease began in July 1996 and has a term of 40 years and expires on June 30, 2036. Under the lease, Verizon pays the City $4,529 per month. Rent is increased every 12 months on July 1st by the change in the consumer price index.
The lease receivable is measured as the present value of the future minimum rent payments expected to be received during the lease term at a discount rate of 3%. The rate was determined using the estimated incremental borrowing rate.
In fiscal year 2025, the City recognized $62,351 of lease revenue and $832 of interest revenue under the leases. The expected future minimum lease payments to be received are as follows:

NOTE 5 - OTHER INFORMATION
A. Risk Management
The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; and natural disasters for which the City carries insurance. The City is a member of the Redwood Empire Municipal Insurance Fund, a joint powers authority, which provides joint protection programs for public entities covering automobile, general liability, errors and omission losses, property, and workers compensation claims. Under the program, the City has a $10,000 general liability retention limit similar to a deductible with the Fund being responsible for losses above that amount up to $500,000.
The Fund carries excess liability coverage to a total of $40 million in excess of its $500,000 retention limit per occurrence through the California Joint Powers Risk Management Authority and its excess insurers.
The Fund covers workers’ compensation claims up to its self-insurance limit of $1 million. A purchased excess policy insures the Fund for an additional $1 million to provide aggregate coverage of up to $2 million per claim. The City pays an annual premium to the Fund; the City may share in any surplus revenues or may be required to pay additional assessments based upon the Fund’s operating results.
The Fund also provides property coverage up to $300 million per occurrence. Financial statements of the JPA Fund may be obtained from their administrative offices located at 414 W. Napa Street, Sonoma, California 95476.
The liability of the City is reported when it is probable that a loss has occurred, and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Liabilities include an amount for claims that have been incurred but not reported (IBNRs). The result of the process to estimate the claims liability is not an exact amount as it depends on many complex factors, such as inflation, changes in legal doctrines, and damage awards.
Accordingly, claims are evaluated periodically to consider the effects of inflation, recent claim settlement trends (including frequency and amount of pay-outs), and other economic and social factors. The estimate of the claims liability also includes amounts for incremental claim adjustment expenses related to specific claims and other claim adjustment expenses regardless of whether allocated to specific claims. Estimated recoveries, for example from salvage or subrogation, are another component of the claim’s liability estimate. Settlements have not exceeded coverage for each of the past three fiscal years.
B. Contingencies and Commitments
Litigation - The City is involved in litigation incurred in the normal course of conducting City business.
City management believes that, based upon consultation with its counsel, these cases, in the aggregate, are not expected to result in a material adverse financial impact on the City.
C. Jointly Governed Organizations
Jointly governed organizations are legal entities or other organizations that result from a contractual arrangement and that are owned, operated, or governed by two or more participants as a separate and specific activity subject to joint control in which the participants retain an ongoing financial interest or ongoing financial responsibility. The City is a participant in the following organizations:
Redwood Empire Municipal Insurance Fund - The City is a member of the Insurance Fund. The Fund, under the terms of a Joint Powers Agreement with the City and several other cities and governmental agencies, provides insurance coverage for general liability, automobile liability, and workers compensation claims. Under the arrangement, the Fund purchases liability, automobile liability, and workers compensation insurance and charges participating cities and governmental agencies in amounts planned to match expenses of insurance premiums, estimated payments resulting from selfinsurance programs, and operating expenses. The City’s obligations are limited to contributions to pay for related insurance premiums.

D. Other Post-Employment Benefits
The City provides no post-employment benefits other than those associated with the Public Employees Retirement System.
E. Public Employee Pension Plans
Plan Description - The plans are a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan administered by the California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS). CalPERS is governed by a 13-member Board of Administration with six elected members, three appointed members and four ex officio members, who include the State Treasurer, the State Controller, the Director of the California Department of Human Services, and a designee of the State Personnel Board.
Benefits Provided - The CalPERS provides retirement, disability, and death benefits. Retirement benefits are defined as 2.5 percent of the employees final 12 months average compensation times the employee’s years of service (2.0 percent for safety employees) Employees with 10 years of continuous service are eligible to retire at age 55 (age 50 for safety employees). Employees are eligible for servicerelated disability benefits regardless of the length of service. Five years of service is required for nonservice-related disability eligibility. Disability benefits are determined in the same manner as retirement benefits but are payable immediately without an actuarial reduction. Pre-retirement death benefits equal an employee’s final full-year salary. Both plans provide for a 2 percent Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA). The public safety plan is closed to new entrants.
Contributions - Section 20814 of the California Public Employees’ Retirement Law (PERL) requires that the employer contribution rates for all public employees be determined on an annual basis by the actuary and shall be effective on the July 1 following notice of a change in the rate. The total plan contributions are determined through the CalPERS annual actuarial valuation process. The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to finance the costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. The employer is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees.
Pension Liabilities, Pension Expense, and Deferred Outflows of Resources and Deferred Inflows of Resources Related to Pensions - At June 30, 2025, the City reported a liability of $10,225,484 for its proportionate share of the net pension liability for all plans. The net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2024, and the total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2023.
The City’s proportion of the net pension liability was based on a projection of the City’s long-term share of contributions to the pension plan relative to the projected contributions of all participating governments, actuarially determined. At June 30, 2025, the City’s proportion was 0.08432 percent compared to 0.08366 at June 30, 2024. For the June 30, 2025 fiscal year, the City recognized pension expense of $2,040,953.

Total $ 1,500,632
Actuarial Assumptions - For the measurement period ended June 30, 2024, the total pension liability was determined by rolling forward the June 30, 2023 total pension liability. The June 30, 2024 total pension liability was based on the following actuarial methods and assumptions:
The mortality table used was developed based on CalPERS’ specific data. Generational Mortality to capture ongoing mortality improvement using 80% of Scale MP 2020 published by the Society of Actuaries. For more details, please refer to the 2024 experience study report that can be found on the CalPERS website.
Changes of Assumptions – There were no changes of assumptions for measurement date June 30, 2024.
Discount Rate – The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 6.90% for each Plan.
To determine whether the municipal bond rate should be used in the calculation of a discount rate for each plan, CalPERS stress tested plans that would most likely result in a discount rate that would be different from the actuarially assumed discount rate. Based on the testing, none of the tested plans run out of assets. Therefore, the current 6.90 percent discount rate is adequate, and the use of the municipal bond rate calculation is not necessary. The long-term expected discount rate of 6.90 percent will be applied to all plans in the Public Employees’ Retirement Fund (PERF). The stress test results are presented in a detailed report called “GASB Crossover Testing Report” that can be obtained from the CalPERS website under the GASB 68 section.

E. Public Employee Pension Plans (continued)
In determining the long-term expected rate of return, CalPERS considered both short-term and longterm market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund (PERF) cash flows. Using historical returns of all the Public Employees Retirement Funds’ asset classes (which includes the agent plan and two cost-sharing plans or PERF A, B, and C funds), expected compound (geometric) returns were calculated over the short-term (first 10 years) and the long-term (11-60 years) using a buildingblock approach. Using the expected nominal returns for both short-term and long-term, the present value of benefits was calculated for each PERF fund. The expected rate of return was set by calculating the single equivalent expected return that arrived at the same present value of benefits of cash flows as the one calculated using both short-term and long-term returns. The expected rate of return was then set equivalent to the single equivalent rate calculated above and rounded down to the nearest one quarter of one percent.
The table below reflects the long-term expected real rate of return by asset class. The rate of return was calculated using the capital market assumptions applied to determine the discount rate and asset allocation. These rates of return are net of administrative expenses.
Sensitivity of the Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability to Changes in the Discount Rate - The following presents the City’s proportionate share of the net pension liability for each Plan, calculated using the discount rate for each Plan, as well as what the City’s proportionate share of the net pension liability would be if it were calculated using a discount rate that is 1-percentage point lower or 1- percentage point higher than the current rate:
The expected average remaining service lifetime (EARSL) is calculated by dividing the total future service years by the total number of plan participants (active, inactive, and retired) in the Public Agency Cost-Sharing Multiple-Employer Plan (PERF C).

E. Public Employee Pension Plans (concluded)
The EARSL for PERF C for the measurement period ending June 30, 2024, is 3.8 years, which was obtained by dividing the total service years of 630,177 (the sum of remaining service lifetimes of the active employees) by 166,163 (the total number of participants: active, inactive, and retired) in PERF C.
Inactive employees and retirees have remaining service lifetimes equal to 0. Total future service is based on the members’ probability of decrementing due to an event other than receiving a cash refund.

G. Successor Agency Trust for Assets of Former Redevelopment Agency The Dissolution Process - On December 29, 2011, the California Supreme Court upheld Assembly Bill 1X26 (the Bill) that provides for the dissolution of all redevelopment agencies in the State of California.
This action impacted the financial reporting entity of the City of Fortuna that previously had reported a redevelopment agency within the financial reporting entity of the City as a blended component unit. The bill provides that upon dissolution of a redevelopment agency, either the city or another governmental unit of local government will agree to serve as the successor agency to hold assets until they are distributed to other units of State and local government.
The City Council of the City of Fortuna elected to have the City become the Successor Agency for the former redevelopment agency and to become the housing successor for the agency.
After enactment of the law, which occurred on June 28, 2011, redevelopment agencies in the State of California cannot enter into new projects, obligations or commitments. Subject to the control of a newly established Oversight Board, remaining assets can only be used to pay enforceable obligations in existence at the date of dissolution (including the completion of any unfinished projects that were subject to legally enforceable contractual commitments). In future fiscal years, successor agencies will only be allocated revenues in the amount that is necessary to pay the estimated annual installment payments on enforceable obligations of the former redevelopment agency until all enforceable obligations of the prior agency have been paid in full and all assets have been liquidated.
The Bill directs the State Controller of the State of California to review the propriety of any transfers of assets between the redevelopment agencies and other public bodies that occurred after January 1, 2011. If the public body that received such transfers is not contractually committed to a third party for the expenditure or encumbrance of those assets, the State Controller is required to order the available assets to be transferred to the public body designated as the Successor by the Bill.

G. Successor Agency Trust for Assets of Former Redevelopment Agency (continued) Management believes, in consultation with legal counsel, that the obligations of the former redevelopment agency due to the City (including the amounts disallowed by the State Department of Finance) and others are valid enforceable obligations payable by the successor agency trust under the requirements of the Bill. The City’s position on these issues is not a position of settled law and there is considerable legal uncertainty regarding these issues. It is reasonably possible that a legal determination may be made at a later date by an appropriate judicial or other authorized body that would resolve any of the dissolution matters unfavorable to the City. In accordance with the timeline set forth in the Bill (As modified by the California Supreme Court on December 29, 2011) all redevelopment agencies in the State of California were dissolved and ceased to operate as a legal entity as of February 1, 2012.
Enforceable Obligations
2007 Revenue Bonds - Successor Agency Obligations
The City and its former component unit redevelopment agency entered into a loan agreement with the Fortuna Public Financing Authority (also a component unit of the City), dated October 1, 2007, wherein the Authority sold $17,500,000 in its revenue bonds, series 2007. From the sale of the Authority’s Revenue bonds, $13,280,000 was loaned to the component unit redevelopment agency and $4,220,000 was loaned to the City.
The loans receivable and payable between the City and the City’s former redevelopment agency and the City’s component unit Financing Authority have been eliminated from the accompanying financial statements.
From the bond proceeds, the former redevelopment agency deposited $2,525,000 into an Escrowed Project Fund Account until October 15, 2010, of the escrow bonds which bonds are defined as the bonds maturing November 1, 2038 with an interest rate of 4.9 percent. On October 15, 2010 the Trustee shall transfer all amounts then on deposit in the Escrowed Project Fund to the Principal Fund, to be applied to the mandatory redemption on November 1, 2010 of Escrow Bonds pursuant to Section 4.07 of the Trust Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the former Agency may postpone such redemption to any later date identified in a certificate of the former Agency which sets forth the new date for the transfer of amounts in the Escrowed Project Fund to the Principal Fund to be used to redeem Escrow Bonds pursuant to Section 4.07 of the Trust Agreement and which is accompanied by cash in an amount which is certified by the former Agency as sufficient, together with the earnings thereon, to pay interest on the portion of the Escrow Bonds which represent the funds then on deposit in the Escrowed Project Fund from November 1, 2010 to the redemption date as identified in such certificate of the Agency. The former Agency exercised its option to postpone this redemption until November 1, 2011. The redemption of the $2,525,000 was completed in fiscal 2014 by the Successor Agency.
The 2007 revenue bonds mature each November 1, commencing November 1, 2008 through 2038, bear interest at rates from 3.75 to 5.0 percent and consist of $5,365,000 in serial bonds, $4,110,000 in term bonds due November 2031, $2,525,000 in term bonds due November 1, 2038 (the escrow bonds), and $5,500,000 in term bonds due November 1, 2038. The bonds are subject to early redemptions from certain prepayments, bonds maturing on or after November 1, 2018 are subject to optional early redemption, the escrow bonds are subject to mandatory early redemption on November 1, 2010 and the term bonds maturing November 1, 2031 and 2038 are subject to mandatory sinking fund redemptions on or after November 1, 2024 and 2032, respectively.
The former redevelopment agency had pledged future incremental property tax revenues to repay its $13,060,000 share of the 2007 revenue bonds. The Agency’s share of the revenue bonds was payable solely from the pledged tax increment revenues and from certain trust accounts held by the bond trustee. Total principal and interest remaining on the Successor Agency’s share of the bonds is $19,798,835. These bonds were refunded by the Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds, Series 2018.

Loan City of Fortuna
On November 1, 2013, the City received from the State Department of Finance (DOF) a Finding of Completion Letter as regards the Successor Agency to the City’s former redevelopment agency that had been dissolved effective February 1, 2012. The DOF letter authorized the City to request a finding be made by the Oversight Board to the Successor Agency that the City’s loan agreements between the former redevelopment agency and the City be qualified as enforceable obligations of the Successor Agency under the laws governing the dissolution of the former agency. In addition, there is a requirement that the accumulated and unpaid interest on any such loans be recalculated using a DOF specified method, that any future repayments, if approved, are to be made subject to a specified formula, and that there will be amounts available pursuant to the formula that will enable the repayments to be made.
In addition, all such loan agreements, recalculations of interest, and formula-based repayments, are subject to approval of the Successor Agency’s Oversight Board and the DOF. The DOF had initially denied approval of this loan as an enforceable obligation of the Successor Agency, but on May 16, 2014, the DOF rescinded this denial, and the loan was approved as an enforceable obligation with an effective date of July 1, 2014, which date has approval of both the DOF and the Successor Agency’s Oversight Board. The City and the Successor Agency reinstated this loan for financial reporting purposes in fiscal 2015.
