GENERAL FUND
The General Fund provides the majority of ongoing governmental services that are not funded through restricted special revenue funds. These services include Fire, Police, Library, Arts & Culture, Community Services and Parks, Community Development, Public Works, and central support service departments that include Finance, City Clerk, City Treasurer, City Attorney, Management Services, and Human Resources. The General Fund is supported by general taxes including property, sales, utility users, and other taxes, in addition to various fees and a transfer from Electric operating revenue funds. Based on the FY 2024-25 proposed revenues and appropriations, the City has prepared a balanced General Fund budget.

The following table reflects the revenue estimates for FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25 General Fund revenues by major category.
General Fund Revenues
(In Thousands)
Revenue changes for the proposed FY 2024-25 budget are described in detail below. •Property Tax: This category is estimated to be approximately $84.0 million, or
3.2% increase compared to prior year. The City continues to experience modest growth in its property tax revenues, however, has seen an overall flattening of home sale prices and a decrease in the number of home sales in calendar year 2023 compared to 2022, mainly due to high interest rates, impacting supply.
Sales Tax: This category is estimated to be approximately $91.1 million, or 2.1% increase compared to prior year. This modest growth is due to an overall shift of consumer behavior from luxury purchases to discount retail. •Utility Users Tax (UUT): This category is estimated to be approximately $32.7 million, which is a projected growth of 6.6% compared to prior year. The majority of the projected increase is for the Electric UUT as staff has accounted for the recently adopted increases in Electric Service rates. •Occupancy Taxes: This category is estimated to be approximately $10.8 million, which is a 5.0% increase from the FY 2023-24 estimate. Since the pandemic, hotel services have seen significant recovery, and this is expected to continue for FY 2024-25.
•Licenses & Permits: Th is category is estimated to be approximately $11.3 million, which is a 12.4% increase from the FY 2023-24 estimate. The projected growth is due to increased revenue in Building and Planning permits as a result of the citywide user fee study, which is discussed later in this report.

•Charges for Services: This category is estimated to be approximately $39.0 million, which is a 9.9% increase from the FY 2023-24 revenue estimate.

The estimated Electric Works Revenue Fund transfer remains at 10.0% of total electric operating revenues.

This increase is mainly attributable to the following:

These costs are inclusive of $8.0 million in estimated vacancy savings. •Maintenance & Operation: The total net increase of approximately $4.9 million is mainly due to increases in Utilities, Technology, and Liability Insurance. •Capital Outlay: The total net increase of approximately $100 thousand is due to additional planned equipment purchases by the Fire department this year compared to prior year.
•Transfers Out: The total net decrease of approximately $1.6 million is due to a lower transfer amount to Internal Service Funds compared to prior year. The transfers are comprised of the following: $10.0 million for Capital Improvement Fund for various projects, $1.5 million to the Debt Service Fund, $133 thousand 5{{section.number}}a

PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE CITYWIDE FEE SCHEDULE BASED ON 2024 USER FEE STUDY The Finance Department established as one of its goals to conduct a comprehensive citywide user fee study and contracted with the Matrix Consulting Group to conduct the study. The purpose of the study is to revisit the cost rollups used in the various fee calculations, staff time estimates and assumptions, and to account for any major shifts in costs or organizational structures that have occurred since the City’s previous citywide fee study.
Fees are commonly adopted by public agencies to recover costs associated with the provision of specific services benefiting the user, thereby reducing the use of General Fund (and other funds) resources for such purposes. Actual costs to provide services include the direct cost of labor to process and perform each service, as well as associated support costs (indirect costs). Indirect costs include departmental and central service overhead costs. The City may charge fees, up to the full cost recovery, provided that those fees do not exceed the maximum limits as may be established under state law.
Fee Study Results and Recommendations
The Matrix Consulting Group analyzed the cost-of-service relationships that exist between fees for service activities across the City’s departments utilizing the “bottom up” approach, where time spent per unit of fee activity is determined for each position within a department or a program. Once time spent for a fee activity is determined, all applicable City costs are then considered for calculation of the “full” cost of providing each service. Each City Department made its own recommendations for fee levels based upon careful consideration of the results of the cost analysis, current service levels, historical cost recovery levels, fees assessed for similar services in the region and the market demand unique to each department’s services. A summary of recommendations is below:

Based on the updated fee calculations, achieving full cost recovery would increase Citywide revenues by $9.3 million: $7.6 million for the General Fund and $1.7 million for Non-General Funds. However, after careful consideration, staff recommends continuing to subsidize fees for several reasons, including historical subsidy levels, comparable fees in other cities, and the unique market demand for each department's services.
Therefore, adopting the proposed fee schedule will result in an additional Citywide revenue of $5.4 million: $4 million for the General Fund and $1.4 million for Non- General Funds.
The consultant’s Fee Study Report (Exhibit 3) as well as the proposed revised Citywide Fee Schedule (Attachment 1 to the Fees Resolutions) is included for reference.
Proposed FY 2023-24 Budget Transfer to Capital Improvement Fund For FY 2023-24, based on the projected revenues and expenditures, staff is anticipating ending the fiscal year with a surplus of $10.0 million. Thus, staff is requesting to transfer $10.0 million from the General Fund to the Capital Improvement Fund for the funding of the Central Park Renovation project to secure grant funding.
