SUBJECT: Annual Comprehensive Financial Report and Single Audit Report for the Year Ended June 30, 2023
RECOMMENDATION:
Accept the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report and Single Audit Report for the Year Ended June 30, 2023.
BACKGROUND:
Annual Comprehensive Financial Report
The City of Goleta annually conducts an independent audit of financial transactions and issues th e Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) . The City’s Finance Department has prepared the ACFR and complies with principles and standards for financial reporting set forth by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), the authoritative body establishing U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for local governments. The FY 2022/23 ACFR was audited in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards by an independent public accounting firm of licensed certified public accountants, Rogers, Anderson, Malody, & Scott, LLP (RAMS).
While only certain financial statements and schedules are required by state law, other information and elements are needed for consideration of an award for excellence in financial reporting from the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA), which recognizes the highest standards of financial reporting. As such, the expanded financial statements and other information included in the report are collectively referred to as an ACFR. In addition to allowing the ACFR to be considered for the GFOA award for financial reporting, the financial statements are ex panded to enable the community and other interested parties to obtain a better and more complete understanding of the City’s finances and operations.
These reports consist of management representations concerning the finances of the City.
All disclosures necessary to enable an understanding of the City’s financial activities have 1 Meeting Date: April 16, 2024
been included. The City received the highest audit opinion, an unmodified opinion, which is located in the ACFR Financial Section in the Independent Auditor’s Report, provided i n Attachment 1. An unmodified opinion indicates that the financial statements fairly present the financial position of the City of Goleta as of June 30, 2023, and the results of operations, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
In addition to fund -by-fund information presented in the ACFR, also included are government-wide financial statements. The government-wide financial statements include a Statement of Net Position that provides information about the City as a whole, including infrastructure and long-term liability and a Statement of Activities, which illustrates the cost of providing government services.
In summary, the ACFR is organized into three sections: introductory, financial, and statistical.
The Introductory section includes the letter of transmittal and general information on the City’s government structure and services provided. It includes a list of principal officials, an organizational chart, and the GFOA Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting for the prior fiscal year.
The Financial section contains the independent auditor’s report on the financial statement audit, the Management Discussion & Analysis (MD&A), basic financial statements, required supplementary information, and combining individual fund presentations and supplementary information.
The Statistical section includes selected financial and demographic information generally presented on a multi -year basis. This information includes financial trends, revenue capacity, debt capacity, demographics, and economic and operating information.
As part of the audit, RAMS also reviewed and performed tests of the City’s internal accounting control procedures to determine if there were any material weaknesses or instances of non -compliance. Based on the audit, no instances of non -compliance or material weaknesses were noted.
Single Audit Report
The Single Audit, previously known as the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-133 audit, is an organization-wide financial statement and federal awards audit of an entity that expends $750,000 or more in federal funds in one fiscal year. It is intended to provide assurance to both the Federal and State Governments that the City has adequate internal controls in place and is generally in compliance with program requirements. Local governments are required to obtain an audit pursuant to the Federal Single Audit Act Amendments of 1996 and prepare a reporting package that is submitted to:
California State Controller’s Office (SCO), which serves as the Single Audit oversight agency for most California local governments.
2 Meeting Date: April 16, 2024
Caltrans, if the city has received federal funding specifically from Caltrans for transportation-related projects.
Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC), which acts as an executive agent for the OMB.
The City’s Single Audit Report must be prepared and submitted in compliance with the financial reporting requirement in accordance with Title 2, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). The reporting package is a collection of several documents, which includes the ACFR, associated auditor letters and the Single Audit Report. To comply with this mandate, the City’s annual contract with its independent auditors, RAMS includes Single Audit services, should it be required for the fiscal year.
DISCUSSION:
ACFR Financial Overview
This year’s audit resulted in no audit adjustments to the City’s financial statements. As of June 30, 202 3, the City’s net position totaled $265.81 million, a decrease of approximately $629 thousand or 0.2% from the prior fiscal year of $ 266.44 million. See Note 13 in the ACFR regarding a prior period adjustment in FY21/22 from $269.25 million to $266.44 million. The largest portion of the City’s net position consisted of the City’s net investment of $19 9.41 million, of which 75% consists of capital assets (i.e., land, buildings, machinery, equipment, and infrastructure). This component represents the total amount of funds required to acquire those assets, less outstanding debt, and accumulated depreciation. Additional information can be foun d in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) section of the ACFR, provided in Attachment 1.
Citywide Highlights
The City’s overall total revenues from all sources equaled approximately $51.21 million, which was a decrease of approximately $1.48 million or 2.8% from the $52.70 million in revenues the previous fiscal year. The decrease is primarily related to cannabis business taxes and transient occupancy taxes . Cannabis tax revenues decreased by $ 714 thousand, or 41%, in the 202 3 fiscal year to $ 1.02 million. Transient occupancy tax revenues decreased by $0.45 million, or 3.2%, to $13.88 million in the 2023 fiscal year.
The City’s overall total expenditures were $51.84 million for the fiscal year, which was an increase of $10.66 million or 25.9% when compared to last fiscal year. Expenses include a wide range of services such as general government, planning and environmental review, neighborhood services, public safety (police protection services), public works, and capital improvement projects. Public works had an increase of $ 6.01 million or
36.4%, primarily related to pavement projects.
The unrestricted net position increased by $ 153 thousand or 0.5% for a total of $3 0.72 million (11. 6% of total net position) and may be used at the City’s di scretion to meet ongoing operating needs.
3 Meeting Date: April 16, 2024
General Fund Highlights
During the City’s 21st full fiscal year, the General Fund reported total revenues of $38.34 million and total expenditures of $3 8.16 million, resulting in excess revenues over expenditures of approximately $ 175 thousand . The excess revenue is due to a combination of higher than anticipated revenues and decreased spending due to further department savings and deferred special projects and Capital Improvement Program (CIP) projects supported by the General Fund, which will continue into FY 23/24.
Revenues: Actual revenues of $38.34 million received came higher than the Final Budget of $35.59 million by $2.75 million, primarily because of higher tax receipts than anticipated with property tax, sales tax, and transient occupancy tax . Overall actual revenues increased by approximately $740,000 or 2.0% when compared to the prior fiscal year.
Property tax experienced higher assessed valuations due to a combination of a 2% inflation adjustment on ass essed values for all property types and changes in the assessed value due to transfer of ownership. Assessed valuation changed by approximately 6.7%. Sales tax exceeded budgeted projections by 4.9% or 1.8% when compared to the prior fiscal year’s actuals. While this was a small increase, overall sales tax activity remained flat when adjusted for economic data. Transient occupancy tax (TOT) is the largest general fund revenue source , totaling $13.9 million and surpassing budgeted projections by 6.0%. Despite this positive variance, TOT revenues experienced a 3.2% decline when compared to the previous fiscal year (FY 21/22), which recorded $14.3 million. Further analysis can be found in the Management and Discussion Analysis section of the ACFR.
Expenditures: Actual expenditures of $3 8.16 million were under the Final Budget of $55.58 million by $1 7.42 million in all areas. Lower than anticipated expenditures were recognized by all departments. Various savings were recognized due to staff vacancies, lower expe nditures associated with professional and contract services and deferred special and capital projects that are now carried over in FY 2 3/24. Carryovers from FY 22/23 were approximately $12.5 million.
Fund Balance: The City continues to maintain sound fiscal integrity and healthy reserves based upon conservative, prudent, and diligent efforts by the City Council and City Manager. The General Fund’s total ending fund balance was $39. 53 million as of June 30, 2023. This amount was higher than the final bud get projection by $21.4 million or higher by $263,000 when compared to the prior fiscal year . This actual increase was a result of higher revenues and less expenditure activity experienced in the fiscal year , as described above. The fund balance categories and amounts at year-end are displayed in the following table:
4 Meeting Date: April 16, 2024
When comparing the total audited ending fund balance of $39.53 million to the estimated ending fund balance amount of $39.66 million provided to City Council in September 2023 during the 4 th Quarter Financial Review (Unaudited), the amount is slightly lower by $126,344 due to year-end adjustments. It should be noted that the Fund Balance in the Financial Statements now includes the Fund Balance for the City’s Section 115 Trust Pension Funding Investments, which was not included in the 4th Quarter Financial Review (Unaudited). This change is noted in Note 13 Prior Period Adjustments of the ACFR.
Included in the General Fund’s fund balance categories are City Council’s established fiscal reserve policies for funding Compensated Absences, Risk Management, Equipment Acquisition and Replacement, Public Facilities, City Hall solar removal, Litigation Defense Reserves and a Contingency Reserve set at a minimum of 33% of total budgeted ongoing operating expenditures. These reserve policy amounts are reflected in the Committed category. In addition, the City maintained a total Assigned amount of $12.5 million for capital improvement projects and special projects into the next fiscal year , as well as approximately $500 thousand to stabilize fair market value adjustments of investments. All remaining fund balance is placed in the Unassigned Fund Balance, which stood at $12.3 million at fiscal year-end June 30, 2023.
Gann Spending Limit
Each fiscal year the City Council adopts the Gann Appropriations Limit by resolution during the budget adoption process, which establishes a maximum amount for tax-funded government services. The Gann Appropriations Limit calculation is then reviewed by the City’s external audit firm as part of the annual audit process. As of June 30, 2023, the City had not reached its Article XIIIB spending limitation. For FY 2022/23 this limit was approximately $72.5 million, with total annual appropriations subject to this limit being $32.4 million. The Independent Auditor’s Report on the Gann Spending Limit calculation can be viewed in Attachment 4.
Single Audit Report Overview
The Single Audit was required this fiscal year due to the City exceeding the threshold amount of federal grant fund expenditures of $750,000 or more in FY 202 2/23. The City expended approximately $2.9 million.
5 Meeting Date: April 16, 2024
The Single Audit Report is provided as Attachment 5 and includes a Report on Internal Controls and Compliance, a Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards and Schedule of Audit Findings and Questioned Costs, if any. Generally, findings are areas of improvement for the City when it comes to the internal controls that are designed to manage the risk with which the City’s assets are safeguarded and its finances are accurately reported, which then translates into the proper administration of federal funding.
In summary, the City’s auditors, RAMS, report the following within the Single Audit Report:
Unmodified opinion as it pertains to both the Financial Statements and to Federal Awards.
No material weakness or significant deficiencies in internal controls over financial reporting.
No noncompliance material to financial statements noted. No material weakness or significant deficiencies in internal controls over major programs
The Single Audit and reporting package has been submitted to the respective agencies, SCO, Caltrans and FAC before the March 31, 2024 deadline.
Other Information
Staff has prepared the ACFR that meets the GFOA’s Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting requirements and will submit it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility. The GFOA can award this certificate based on meeting certain criteria, which includes publishing an easily readable and efficiently organized comprehensive annual financial report. This report must satisfy both generally accepted accounting principles and applicable legal requirements. A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. Staff believes that our current comprehensive annual financial report continues to meet the Certificate of Achievement Program’s requirements.
The entire ACFR is available for viewing at City Hall, on the City’s website, and has been distributed to the City Council.

To the Honorable Mayor, Councilmembers, and Residents of the City of Goleta:
We are pleased to submit the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) of the City of Goleta (City) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. The report was prepared by the City’s Finance Department in conformance with the principles and standards set forth by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) for financial reporting under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) as they apply to local governments. The report underwent an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards by an independent public accounting firm of licensed certified public accountants.
This report contains management representations regarding the City’s finances.
Management assumes full responsibility for both the accuracy of the data and the completeness and fairness of the presentation, including all disclosures. To provide a reasonable basis for making these representations, City management has established a comprehensive internal control framework that is designed to safeguard the City’s assets from loss, theft, or misuse and to compile sufficient reliable information for the preparation of the City’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP. While mindful of the cost-benefit aspect of internal controls, the City prioritizes effective and robust measures to provide reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that t he financial statements are free from material misstatement. To the best of our knowledge and belief, this report is accurate in all material respects and fairly presents the City’s financial position, ensuring full disclosure for a thorough understanding of the City’s financial activities.
AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The City’s financial statements have been audited by Rogers, Anderson, Malody, & Scott LLP (RAMS), a firm of licensed certified public accountants. The objective of the independent audit is to pr ovide reasonable assurance that the financial statements of the City for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 are free of material misstatement. The independent audit involved examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements; assessing the overall accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management; and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
The independent auditor concluded, based upon the audit, that there was a reasonable basis for rendering an unmodified opinion on the City’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, and that these statements are fairly presented in conformity with GAAP. The independent auditor’s report is located at the front of the financial section of this report. 17 -iv-
This ACFR has been prepared in accordance with the financial reporting requirements prescribed by GASB Statement No. 34, which introduced a co mprehensive model for financial reporting by state and local governments. GASB 34 requires management to provide a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis in the form of Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) to accompany the financial statements. This transmittal letter is designed to complement the MD&A by providing additional context and should be read in conjunction. The MD&A immediately follows the independent audit report.
Report Organization:
The report is organized into three sections: introductory, financial, and statistical.
1. The Introductory section includes this transmittal memorandum and general information on the City’s government structure and services provided. It includes a list of principal officials and an organizational chart, offering readers a contextual understanding of the City’s governance and operational framework.
2. The Financial section contains the independent auditor’s report on the financial statement audit, the MD&A, basic financial statements , required supplementary information, and combined and individual fund presentations and supplementary information.
3. The Statistical section includes selected financial an d demographic information generally presented multi-yearly. This information includes financial trends, revenue capacity, debt capacity, demographics, and economic and operating information.
PROFILE OF THE CITY OF GOLETA
The City of Goleta was incorporated on February 1, 2002, as a General Law City under the laws of the State of California. The City of Goleta encompasses approximately 8 square miles in southern Santa Barbara County and has a population of approximately 32,442. The City is adjacent to the City of Santa Barbara and University of Californi a, Santa Barbara and is approximately 90 miles northwest of Los Angeles.
Form of Government
The City operates under the council-manager form of government. The City Council comprises four members elected at large for staggered four-year terms of office, and one Mayor elected at large to serve a four-year term. Starting in November of 2022, councilmembers will be elected by district for staggered four-year terms of office. A Mayor Pro Tempore is selected by the Council from among its members to serve a one-year term. The City Council serves as the legislative and policy-making body of the City, enacting all laws and directing such actions as are required to provide for the general welfare of the community. The City Manager, appointed by the City Council, serves as the Chief Executive Officer and is responsible to the City Council for the administration of all City affairs and implementing all policies and ordinances established by the City Council. The City Attorney serves under contract and is appointed by the City Council. All other staff are appointed by the City Manager.
18 -v-
City Services
The City provides municipal services through contracts for such services as street, park, and landscape maintenance. The City of Goleta also contracts with the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Department for law enforcement services. Fire protection services are provided by the Santa Barbara County Fire Department through the Santa Barbara County Fire Protection District, which has a service area that includes the City of Go leta. There are approximately 550 acres of parks and open space within City limits. The City owns the Goleta Public Library and assumed direct management and operation of the Goleta Library in FY 2018/19 and created a new Library Zone 4 on behalf of the County of Santa Barbara. On July 1, 2019, the City also assumed to provide direct management and operations of the libraries in the City of Buellton and City of Solvang. On January 1, 2023, the City assumed direct management and operations of the Goleta Valley Community Center.
Budget Process and Budgetary Control
The City Council adopts a two-year budget plan at the beginning of each two-year cycle in conjunction with a two-year strategic plan, which includes adopting an annual operating and capital budget prior to July 1
st of each year in conjunction with annual work programs of each department.
As such, the adopted two-year budget plan includes the operating and capital budget for the first year of the two-year plan. The operating and ca pital budget for the second year is adopted the following year as part of the mid-cycle budget review and is known as the Mid-Cycle Budget. The adopted budget is the foundation for the City of Goleta’s financial planning and control system.
Department appropriation requests are submitted to the City Manager, who then formulates a proposed budget. The proposed budget undergoes public workshops conducted by the City Council and then ultimately adopts a formal budget at a public hearing. The budget is adopted by fund, department, program, and line-item.
The Council regularly reviews the City’s financial activity in relationship to the original budget.
Adjustments are made as necessary to ensure expenditures align with anticipated revenues.
Budgetary control (the level at which expenditures cannot legally exceed the appropriation amount) is managed at the fund and department level with stricter control over capital assets and fund balance categories at the line-item level. The City Council must approve amendments or transfers of appropriations between funds or departments as well as items related to capital assets or fund balances. The City Council has delegated authority to the City Manager to approve transfers of appropriations within departme nts, between programs, and am ong various appropriation units (e.g., salaries and benefits, services and supplies, and capital outlay) within programs, except for special designation or project appropriations.
Unexpended appropriation balances for capital projects, one-time special projects, and grant programs adopted on a “project-length” basis that lapse at the end of the fiscal year are then recommended to be carried forward to the next fiscal year, subject to City Manager review and City Council approval.
Internal Controls
The City’s management holds the primary res ponsibility for establishi ng and maintaining a comprehensive internal control structure designed to ensure that the assets of the government are protected from loss, theft, or misuse and ensures the compilation of accurate accounting data necessary for financial statements that conform to GAAP and the standards set by GASB.
19 -vi-
The internal control structure is designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that these objectives are met. The concept of reaso nable assurance recognizes that the costs of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be achieved, and the valuation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management.
As a recipient of financial resources from State, County, and Federal entities, the City is also responsible for ensuring that an adequate internal control structure is in place to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations related to those programs. The internal control structure is subject to periodic evaluation by the City’s management.
MAJOR INITIATIVES AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS
During Fiscal Year 2022/23, the City of Goleta not only met the lingering challenges from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent economic uncertainties but also implemented and completed a range of projects and programs to advance the goals and priorities of the City Council and the community. Our dedicated staff successfully completed numerous work efforts that fully aligned with the City's Vision Statement and the Council's nine Key Initiatives. These accomplishments reflect the City’s unwavering commitment to ensuring the well-being of our community and advancing our shared goals for Goleta's future.
Some of these accomplishments are summarized below:

ECONOMIC CONDITION AND OUTLOOK
Local Economy
The City of Goleta boasts a diverse tax base comprised of single-family homes, condominiums, and apartments with a mixture of retail, light industrial, manufacturing, and service entities. The City of Goleta significantly contributes to the basic economic activity in the Santa Barbara County South Coast, including education, intellectual services, tourism, retail and manufacturing. Despite the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, Goleta has seen a strong recovery, particularly in Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) and sales tax revenue.
Current economic indicators reveal that the City of Goleta’s core tax revenue streams are not only healthy but also exceed pre-pandemic levels. This is a testament to our robust economic recovery. However, as we enter FY 2023/24, we are mindful of looming economic challenges.
These include persistent inflation, ongoing supply chain disruptions, rising energy and fuel costs, increasing labor expenses, and the implications of Federal Reserve tightening policies. In response to these challenges, particularly the rising costs of building and construction, the City is proactively formulating strategies to manage our finances effectively and sustain our fiscal health. This forward-looking approach ensures that we are well-positioned to navigate these uncertainties while continuing to support the growth and well-being of our community. In addition, beginning January 1, 2024, the City will begin receiving its voter-approved 1% transaction and use tax, which is estimated to add $10.6 million annually to the General Fund.
Revenues from this new source will be reflected in the FY 2023/24 report.
According to the labor market data released by the California Employment Development Department (EDD), Goleta’s annual unemployment rate for the calendar year 2022 was 2.3%, down from 3.9% for 2021. For the same annual 2022 period, the unemployment rate for Santa Barbara County was at 3.5% and California at 4.2%.
21 -viii-
In the tourism sector, TOT revenues for FY 2022/23 generated $13.9 million due to continued elevated average daily rates and occupancy levels. However, this was a 3.2% decrease from FY 2021/22, attributed to a slight downturn from historic highs in average daily rates and occupancy. Looking ahead, TOT revenue is expected to remain flat, influenced by economic uncertainties, including inflation.
Property tax revenues showed stability and growth with an inflation adjustment of 2% and ongoing property transfer activity. The real estate market saw significant price increases during the pandemic as mortgage rates dropped to historic lows, and demand for housing remained high with low supply, driving the average and median price of detached single-family homes to historic highs. The average price for calendar year 2022 was $1.5 million and the median price was $1.4 million. Pre-pandemic, for calendar year 2019, the average price was $937,760 and the median was $898,000. Going forward, it is anticipated that prices and values will remain high, though the high-interest rate environment will slow the pace of real estate transactions, but property values are expected to remain elevated.
Sales tax revenues also experienced slight growth, with the General Fund receiving $8.7 million in FY 2022/23, a 1.8% increase when compared to FY 2021/22. Sales tax is supported by eight major industry groups, with general consumer goods accounting for about 20% of total sales tax revenues. Going forward, sales tax revenue growth is anticipated to slow down in the next fiscal year and remain flat.
In summary, while Goleta’s economic foundation is strong, the City faces a complex fiscal landscape. Elevated costs in building and construction, alongside the potential for economic slowdown and significant expenditure pressures, including capital projects and maintenance needs, necessitate prudent financial planning and budgeting.
Challenges
The City of Goleta, like other government agencies across California, is faced with increased ongoing annual operating costs and rising retirement-related liabilities. For Goleta, some of the significant challenges include increased ongoing funding needs for deferred maintenance items, such as pavement maintenance, facility and park maintenance, and implementation of major management and master plan documents, such as the Homelessness Strategic Plan, the Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan, and the Creeks and Watershed Management Plan and contract service cost. Additionally, major capital improvement program (CIP) projects are projected to remain underfunded and face the risk of increased funding gaps due to escalating construction costs.
Despite these challenges, the City has historically balanced these issues through the strategic use of contract staffing and services, coupled with the utilization of one-time savings. However, we anticipate continued cost increases. Additionally, revenue uncertainties in future years, along with expected expenditure growth over the next five years, present additional hurdles. The broader economic landscape, marked by inflation and Federal Reserve action, adds another layer of complexity to our financial planning. The City is actively exploring strategies to mitigate these challenges, including evaluating efficiencies in operations and seeking alternative funding sources to help cover the major CIP funding gap. We remain committed to proactive fiscal management to navigate these uncertainties while continuing to serve our community effectively.

Long-Term Financial Planning
The City incorporates long-term financial planning into its budget process in several ways. Each year, during the budget process, the City Council receives an updated General Fund Five-Year Forecast and CIP Five-Year Forecast that includes all special revenue funds associated with each project. The forecast model used for the General Fund and CIP looks forward five years, rather than ten years, because of the volatile nature of tax revenues in a tourist-based economy and various one-time special revenue funds associated with development activity, making it difficult to predict revenues with any certainty beyond five years. The forecast is used as a tool and maintained by Finance staff. These projections allow management to see what the future could look like given a set of assumptions and are evaluated in the context of whether decisions are sustainable over the long term. In December 2020, Finance staff prepared a long-range financial forecast for the General Fund going out twenty years. The long-range financial forecast is a tool for strategic decision-making, presents a further context for balancing short-term and long-term goals, and provides an “order of magnitude” feel for the General Fund’s ability to continue services and preserve fiscal sustainability. In FY 21/22, staff also started preliminary work in developing a CIP, Capital Maintenance, and Other Priorities Funding Plan that provides a pathway to help close the funding gaps in future years, which will continue as an ongoing work effort as information becomes updated and known.
Relevant Financial Policies
The City of Goleta has adopted a comprehensive set of financial policies to provide guidance for all fiscal activities and resource allocation decisions. Some of the major financial policies the City has adopted include the Debt Management Policy, City’s Investment Policy, Purchasing Policy, Capitalization Policy, and Fund Balance Reserve Policies.
Debt Management Policy: The City’s Debt Management Policy contains general guidelines and parameters for issuing and refunding debt, including guiding decisions related to future debt to ensure adequate financial resources are available to support the City’s long-term capital needs.
Investment Policy: The City’s Investment Policy establishes guidelines, strategies, practices, and procedures to be used in the investment of public funds in accordance with California Government Code sections 53600-53610, which establish legally permitted investments for local governments statewide. The policy is reviewed, updated if needed, and adopted annually.
Capitalization Policy: The City’s Capitalization Policy sets thresholds at $5,000 for assets with a minimal useful life of three years while identifying fixed asset categories as land, buildings and improvements, infrastructure, furniture and equipment, motorized vehicles, and construction in progress. Additional information can be found in Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Notes to the Basic Financial Statements document.
Fund Balance Reserve Policies: The City recognizes the importance of long-range planning in managing the City’s fiscal affairs to provide for stable operations and ensure the City’s long-term financial health. The reserves contained in the General Fund play a pivotal role in this strategy.
The reserve policies require a contingency reserve balance of at least 33% of the General Fund’s ongoing expenditures budget. Additionally, other reserve categories have been established for capital equipment, compensated leave, risk management, litigation defense, sustainability, CalPERS pension, and Other Post Employee Benefits (OPEB) for retiree health unfunded accrued liability. It should be noted that in FY 21/22, the City has set up Section 115 Trusts for both pensions and retiree health care liabilities and has transferred reserves held to these trusts. Future funding policies will be considered and implemented in the next few fiscal years.

Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Honorable City Council
of the City of Goleta
Goleta, California
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Goleta (the City), as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of City of Goleta, as of June 30, 2023, and the respective changes in financial position for the fiscal 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 (GAAS) and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards (GAS), issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. 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 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. 29
-2-
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 the City’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 GAAS and GAS 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 GAAS and GAS, we:
x Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
x 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. x 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’s internal control.
Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
x 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.
x Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’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 and other required supplementary information, as listed in the table of contents, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and, 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 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 the City’s basic financial statements. The accompanying supplementary information, as listed in the table of contents, are presented for additional analysis and are not required part of the basic financial statements.
The supplementary 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 supplementary information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
Other Information Included in the Annual Report
Management is responsible for the other information included in the annual comprehensive financial report (ACFR). The other information comprises the introductory and statistical sections 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. 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.

Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards , we have also issued our report dated March 27, 2024 on our consideration of the City’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting or on compliance.
That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
For the Year Ended June 30, 2023
-5-
As management of the City of Goleta (the City), we offer readers of the City’s financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the City's financial activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. Readers are encouraged to consider the information presented here in conjunction with additional information provided in the letter of transmittal (in the Introductory Section) and the accompanying basic financial statements and notes, which follow this section.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
x At the close of the most recent fiscal year, the City’s assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources by $265.81 million (net position). Of this amount, $30.73 million is unrestricted and available to meet the City’s ongoing obligations to its residents and creditors. The remaining amount is invested in capital assets or otherwise restricted and, therefore, not immediately available for the City’s obligations.
x The City’s total revenue from all governmental activities equaled $51.2 million, a decrease of $1.5 million or approximately 3.0% compared to $49.7 million from the previous fiscal year. The decrease is primarily related to cannabis business taxes and transient occupancy taxes.
x Cannabis business tax revenues for the city continue to experience volatility. They decreased by $0.72 million, or 41.2%, to $1.02 million in the 2023 fiscal year. In discussions with local operators, cannabis tax revenue activity continues to be impacted by increased competition and oversupply statewide. In addition, distribution operators continued to express issues with the black market across the state and supply and demand being affected by limited access to legalized cannabis. x Transient occupancy tax revenues decreased by $0.45 million, or 3.2%, to $13.89 million in the 2023 fiscal year. The decrease was due to tourism activity (occupancy rates) and average daily rates trending down from the prior year’s historic highs experienced during the pandemic.
x The City’s total expenditures on all programs totaled approximately $51.84 million, an increase of 25.9%, or approximately $10.66 million, compared to the previous fiscal year's $41.18 million. This was mostly due to increases in general government, public safety, and public works spending related to street maintenance projects and capital improvement program projects.
x The General Fund reported an ending fund balance of approximately $39.53 million, an increase of $0.10 million from the $39.42 million ending fund balance of the fiscal year 2022. The increase was due to total revenues exceeding expenditures. The $39.53 million fund balance includes committed funds of $14.18 million, including the 33% contingency reserve; the assigned fund balance of $13.03 million; and $12.3 million remaining as an unassigned fund balance on June 30, 2023.

OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
This annual report contains the City’s Basic Financial Statements, which includes three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the basic financial statements. This report also contains other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements themselves.
The government-wide financial statements consist of the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities that provide information about the activities of the City as a whole and allow a longer-term view of the City’s finances. The fund financial statements illustrate how City services are financed in the short-term as well as what remains for future spending. They also report the City’s operations in more detail than the government-wide financial statements by providing information about the City’s most significant funds. The Notes to the Basic Financial Statements provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements. This report contains various references to the section of notes that provides additional information on the information described.
Government-wide Financial Statements
Reporting the City as a Whole: The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities
One of the most important questions asked about the City’s finances is, “Is the City as a whole better, unchanged, or worse off as a result of this fiscal year’s activities?” The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities report information about the City as a whole and about its activities in a way that helps to answer this question. These statements include all assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources using the accrual basis of accounting, which is similar to the accounting used by most private sector companies.
All the current fiscal year’s revenues and expenses are considered regardless of when cash is received or paid.
These two statements report on the City’s net position and changes in them. The City’s net position, the difference between assets/deferred outflows of resources and liabilities/deferred inflows of resources, is one way to measure the City’s financial health or financial position. Over time, increases or decreases in the City’s net position are one indicator of whether its financial health is improving or deteriorating. Consideration should also be given to other non-financial factors, such as changes in the City’s property tax bases and the condition of the City’s roads, to assess the overall health of the City.
All of the City’s basic services are governmental activities. The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities present information about these Governmental activities, including General Government, Public Safety, Public Works, Library, Planning and Environmental Review, and Neighborhood Services. Property Tax, Sales Tax, Transient Occupancy Tax, Franchise Fees, and Cannabis Business Tax finance approximately 65% of these activities. It should be noted that the City does not have business-type activities.

Fund Financial Statements
Reporting the City’s Most Significant Funds: Fund Financial Statements
The Fund Financial Statements provide detailed information about the most significant funds, not the City as a whole. Included are the General Fund, Goleta Transportation Improvement Program (GTIP) Fund, Coronavirus State & Local Fiscal Recovery Fund (SLFRF) as well as lesser funds reported collectively as Other Governmental Funds. Some funds are required to be established by State law; however, the City establishes many other funds to help it control and manage money for specified purposes or to demonstrate that the City is meeting legal responsibilities for using certain taxes, grants, and other money. The City currently has just one type of fund, governmental, which uses the following accounting approach.
Governmental Funds focus on how money flows into and out of those funds and the balances left at fiscal year-end that are available for future appropriation. Most of the City’s basic services are reported in governmental funds. These funds are reported using an accounting method known as modified accrual accounting. Under this method of accounting, revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which they become measurable and available to finance expenditures of the current fiscal period, while expenditures are recognized in the accounting period in which the liability is incurred.
The Governmental Fund statements provide a detailed short-term view of the City’s general government operations and the basic services it provides. Governmental fund information helps the reader determine whether there are more or fewer financial resources that can be spent in the near future to finance the City’s programs. The reconciliation schedules accompanying the Fund Financial Statements describe the relationship (or difference) between governmental activities (reported in the Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities) and Governmental Funds.
The City as Trustee: Reporting the City’s Fiduciary Responsibilities
The City is the trustee, or fiduciary, for certain amounts held on behalf of the Successor Agency to the Goleta Redevelopment Agency. The City’s fiduciary activities are reported in separate Fiduciary Fund Statements. We exclude these activities from the City’s other financial statements because the City cannot use these assets to finance its operations. The City is responsible for ensuring that the assets reported in these funds are used for their intended purpose.
Notes to the Basic Financial Statements
The notes provide additional detailed information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements. The notes to the basic financial statements can be found starting on page 30 of this report.

Other Information
Required Supplementary Information
In addition to the basic financial statements, this report also presents certain Required Supplementary Information (RSI), including the City’s budgetary comparison schedules, schedule of changes in net pension liability and related ratios, schedule of pension contributions schedule of changes in Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) liability and related ratios, and schedule of OPEB contributions. RSI can be found starting on page 67 of this report.
Supplementary Information
This report also presents certain other supplementary information including combining fund statements for the City’s non-major governmental funds, including budget and actual statements. The supplementary information section can be found starting on page 74 of this report.
Statistical Section
Statistical tables regarding financial trends, revenue capacity, debt capacity, demographics, and economic information, and operating information can be found starting on page 151 of this report.
GASB Pronouncements
Additionally, for the year ended June 30, 2023, the financial statements include the adoption of GASB Statement No. 96, Subscription-Based Information Technology Arrangements (SBITAs).
The primary objective of this statement is to enhance the relevance and consistency of information about the government’s SBITA activities. This statement establishes a single model for SBITA accounting based on the principle that SBITAs are contracts that convey control of the right to use another party’s (an SBITA vendor’s) information technology (IT) software, alone or in combination with tangible capital assets (the underlying IT assets), as specified in the contract for a period of time in an exchange or exchange-like transaction. Under this statement, the City is required to recognize a SBITA liability and a corresponding intangible right-to-use subscription asset. The addition of the right-to-use assets and the associated subscription liabilities did not significantly affect the City’s net position. For additional information, refer to the Notes to the Financial Statements, Note 4 and Note 5.

THE CITY AS A WHOLE – GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Summary of Net Position
The analysis focuses on the net position (see Table 1) and changes in net position (Table 2) of the City’s governmental activities. The City does not have any business-type activities. Table 1 below summarizes the Statement of Net Position for Governmental Activities as of June 30, 2023, with comparative totals as of June 30, 2022. As previously stated, the net position at fiscal year-end serves as a useful indicator over time whether the City’s financial position is improving or deteriorating.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
For the Year Ended June 30, 2023
-10-
As of June 30, 2023, the City’s net position totaled $265.8 million, a decrease of $629,000 or approximately 0.2% in comparison to the prior fiscal year. The fiscal year beginning net position was restated because the General Fund had a prior period adjustment due to the inclusion of the City’s Section 115 Pension Trust being included as a fiduciary activity rather than a part of the City’s General Fund. The City also had the correction of an error on the government-wide statements related to unavailable revenues. These prior period adjustments can be seen in more detail in Note 13.
The largest portion of net position consisted of the City’s net investment of $199.4 million (75.0%) in capital assets (i.e., land, buildings, machinery, equipment, and infrastructure) less deprecation and any related debt used to acquire those assets that are still outstanding. The City uses these capital assets to provide services to its community. The change in the net position can be caused by all elements of the financial statements, which include the assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources. Assets can primarily be affected by its current assets, such as cash and investments and investments in capital assets. In this fiscal year, total assets experienced an increase of $4.5 million or 1.5% for a total of $299.4 million and were primarily due to capital asset additions less the annual depreciation/amortization expense at fiscal year-end, which accounted for a $3.6 million net increase.
The City’s total liabilities increased by approximately $10.8 million or 44.2% for a total of $35.3 million. Within this category, the City’s current and other liabilities increased by $7.9 million or
79.9% due to a $4.7 million increase in accounts payable due to the timing of processing fiscal year-end invoices and unearned revenue of $2.2 million, primarily related to the reclassification of Unavailable Revenue for the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery funds (SLFRF) to Unearned Revenue. Total long-term liabilities due in more than one year had an increase of $3.7 million or 363.2% due to a significant increase in net pension liability. Additional details on net pension liabilities can be found in Note 6.
The restricted net position decreased by approximately $7.2 million or 16.8% for a total of $35.7 million (13.4% of total net position), which are funds subject to external restrictions on how the funds may be used, such as development impact fees programmed for capital projects. The unrestricted net position increased by approximately $3.1 million or 11.3% for a total of $30.7 million (11.6% of total net position) and may be used at the City’s discretion to meet ongoing operating needs.
Changes in Net Position
The following table provides a summary of how the City’s net position changed from the prior fiscal year and summarizes the Statement of Activities for Governmental Activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, with comparative totals for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022.
Generally, it indicates whether the financial health of the City as a whole is better, unchanged, or worse on June 30, 2023, in relation to a year earlier. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, the total net position decreased by $629,000 or 0.2%, which shows the City’s financial health is relatively unchanged from the previous fiscal year.

Revenues: The City’s total revenues were $51.2 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, a decrease of approximately $1.5 million or 2.8% when compared to last fiscal year.
Approximately 72% of the City’s revenue comes from some type of tax revenue including property, sales, transient occupancy taxes (TOT) and other taxes totaling $36.9 million this fiscal year. This is a decrease of approximately $1.5 million when compared to the last fiscal year. This decrease is primarily due to cannabis business tax revenues (accounted for in other taxes) decreasing approximately $0.7 million 41.2% when compared to last fiscal year. In addition, transient occupancy tax decreased by $0.5 million or 3.2%. The City receives 12% of the total taxable hotel revenue within city limits. California’s stay at home order was lifted at the end of June 2021, and hotel occupancy rates increased along with higher hotel prices as travel activity surged in fiscal year 2022. As more opportunities to travel to other areas in the 2023 fiscal year, hotel occupancy levels and average daily rates started trending down in the latter half of the fiscal year; however, still elevated when compared to pre-pandemic levels. The other 28% of revenues come from fees charged for services, development impact fees, state, local, and federal grants and contributions, and investment earnings.
Expenses: The total cost of all programs was $51.8 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $10.7 million or 25.9% when compared to last fiscal year. Expenses include a wide range of services such as general government administration, public safety (police protection services), public works, library, planning and environment review, neighborhood services, and interest on long-term debt related to the iBank financing for City Hall building. The increase in expenditures is largely due to increases in general government, public safety, and public works spending. Public works had an increase of $6.0 million or 36.4%, primarily related to pavement maintenance projects and capital improvement program spending.
In addition, many vacancies were filled in the Public Works department. It should be noted that the staff has updated its expense categories.
Note: What was previously reported under community development and community services, is now reflected as library, planning and environmental review, and neighborhood services.
Neighborhood services include homelessness program services, emergency services, and parks and recreation services, including the Goleta community center.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE CITY’S FUNDS
At the fiscal year-end, the City’s governmental funds reported a combined fund balance of $72.5 million, a decrease of $4.0 million or 5.2% over the prior fiscal year. The General Fund increased approximately $263,000 or 0.7%. The GTIP Fund experienced a decrease of $2.8 million, or 20.9%, because of developer impact fees collected for the fiscal year, and projects carried over from the prior fiscal year. The Coronavirus State & Local Fiscal Recovery Fund (SLFRF), which has an asset balance of $5.1 million and reflects the total allocation, less recognized expenses, provided from the federal government when the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) was signed.

ARPA funds are expected to be fully expensed before December 2024.

General Fund Budgetary Highlights
Over the course of the fiscal year, the City Council revised the City budget several times. These budget amendments fall into three categories: 1) changes made during the fiscal year for unanticipated revenues and costs, 2) increased appropriations to prevent budget overruns, and 3) carry-over budgets for one-time use for capital projects and special projects. The City Council may amend the budget by motion during the fiscal year.
Revenues: Actual revenues of $38.3 million received came higher than the Final Budget by $2.8 million, primarily because of higher tax receipts than anticipated with property tax, sales tax, and transient occupancy tax. Overall actuals revenues increased approximately $740,000, or 2.0%, when compared to the prior fiscal year. The following paragraphs discuss key revenue variances, when compared to the budget and prior fiscal year actuals.
Property tax exceeded budgeted projections by 9.2% and when compared to the prior fiscal year actuals, by 7.8%. Property tax experienced higher assessed valuations due to a combination of a 2% inflation adjustment on assessed values for all property types and changes in the assessed value due to transfer of ownership. Assessed valuation changed by approximately 6.7%. In addition, the property transfer tax revenues from property sales remained elevated above $300,000 for the fiscal year, due to the sale of the Ritz Carlton – Bacara property in November 2022. During the start of the pandemic, mortgage rates dropped to historic lows and the demand for housing remained high with low supply, driving the average and median price of housing up to historic highs. The median price of a detached single family residential home was at $1.1 million in calendar year 2021, an increase of 18.41%, $1.35 million in calendar year 2022, an increase of 22.73%. Since the Federal Reserve began its rate hikes in March 2022 in response to rapidly rising inflation rates, property transfer activity slowed down during the fiscal year due to increased borrowing costs. However, the median price remained elevated due to low inventory. The median price was at $1.38 million for calendar year 2023, an increase of 2.04%.
Sales tax exceeded budgeted projections by 4.9% and when compared to the prior fiscal year actuals, by 1.8%. While this was a small increase, overall sales tax activity remained flat when adjusted for economic data. During a key sales tax meeting City staff had with our sales tax consultants, staff were informed that sales tax revenues were weakened in multiple sectors due to pricing pressures on essentials such as food and energy as federal policy makers increased rates to control inflation and cool consumer demand.
Transient occupancy tax (TOT) is the largest General Fund revenue source totaling $13.9 million and surpassing budgeted projections by 6.0%. Despite this positive variance, TOT revenues experienced a 3.2% decline when compared to the previous fiscal year, fiscal year 2021-22, which recorded $14.3 million. This downturn primarily reflects a decrease in average daily rates and occupancy levels, trending down from the prior year’s historic highs, though maintaining a notable 20% increase over pre-pandemic numbers ($11.6 million in fiscal year 2018-19). The peak year for TOT, fiscal year 2021-22, was largely fueled by the drive market, a trend that began to slowdown as air and international travel opportunities resurged. The City receives 12.0% of the total taxable hotel revenue generated within City limits. There are nine hotels operating in Goleta.

Expenditures: Actual expenditures of $38.2 million were under the Final Budget amounts by $17.4 million, or 31.3% under budget. This favorable variance primarily stems from the fiscal year 2022-23 budget reflecting restored service levels and increasing staff positions to address backlog and deficiencies. Additionally, the new General Services Department was established, a strategic organizational change that consolidated and transferred functions from Public Works which included Facilities Maintenance, Fleet and Vehicle Maintenance and Information Technology from Human Resources. With a programmed budget at increased amounts and timing of filling staff vacancies, less spending activity was experienced across the departments.
In addition, there was continued deferred projects and one-time program spending that was then encumbered for carryover into the next fiscal year.
By the end of the fiscal year, approximately $4.9 million was identified related to unfinished encumbered projects in the operating budget and $7.5 million to capital improvement program projects that will be reappropriated in the following fiscal year. When comparing actuals to the prior fiscal year, overall expenditures increased by $7.1 million or 22.7%.
Appropriations: Variances between the Original and the Final budgets are primarily due to the inclusion of continuing appropriations for special projects from the prior fiscal year, as well as new appropriations made by the City Council during the fiscal year. New budget appropriations were the result of higher than anticipated costs after receiving bids and proposals and unanticipated expenditures. All new appropriations get evaluated if one time or ongoing and analyzed against the City’s unassigned fund balance or another reserve category that may be available. Some significant budget appropriations included additional pavement budget of $2.2 million, $1.8 million for the 2023 winter storm emergency response, and $6.4 million related to prior year encumbered carryovers. Additionally, revenues were updated and projected conservatively due to the pandemic and volatility at the time of adopting the original budget.
Adjustments were recommended at mid-year (second quarter) and the third quarter when actual data was known.
Ending Fund Balance : The General Fund ending balance was $39.5 million as of June 30, 2023. This amount was higher than the final budget projection by $21.4 million or higher than $263,000 when compared to the prior fiscal year. This increase was a result of higher revenues and less expenditure activity experienced in the fiscal year as described above. The table below summarizes the fund balance by classification:
Fund Balance:
Non-spendable:
Prepaid items 15,049 $
Committed 14,180,140

Budget Highlights and Significant Changes
Revenue from the new Transaction and Use Tax will be received by the City beginning in January 2024. The City will collect six months of revenue during fiscal year 2023-24 (estimated at $5.3 million) and 12 months of revenue during fiscal year 2024-25 (estimated at $10.6 million).
Addressing homelessness has been stated as one of the highest Council priorities. The budget reflects a General Fund commitment of $850,100 in fiscal year 2023-24 and $857,900 in fiscal year 2024-25 to homelessness programs that meet strategies and objectives in the Homelessness Strategic Plan.
The Sheriff contract has been budgeted at $10.5 million for fiscal year 2023-24. This is an increase of 11% over the fiscal year 2022-23 negotiated contract of $9.5 million. The City is currently in negotiations with the Sheriff for a long-term contract and it is possible that this amount will increase once the new contract is finalized. Should it increase, an adjustment to the budget will need to be made at mid-year and mid-cycle based on final contract terms.
The City’s General Fund contribution to the library has been steadily increasing. The General Fund contribution for fiscal year 2023-24 is $808,110. The City took over the Goleta Valley Community Center in January 2023. The Strategic Plan for the Community Center was approved by Council on April 18, 2023. Over the course of this budget cycle, a decision will have to be made on whether to manage the facility in-house or with a contract facility manager. The General Fund contribution to the Center in fiscal year 2023-24 is $418,300.
In fiscal year 2021-22 the City acquired approximately 1,350 streetlights from Southern California Edison as part of the LED Street Lighting Project. Ongoing administrative and maintenance costs are currently projected at $537,500 for fiscal year 2023-24, which exceeds the benefit assessment revenues of approximately $305,000. To cover this gap in funding, the General Fund will contribute $35,000 and the Street Lighting Fund will utilize $197,000 of one-time fund balance. Staff will be evaluating the street lighting fund and assessment rates, including its operational budget, and consider re-evaluating the assessment rates or increasing future General Fund contributions for sustainability. The General Fund contribution to the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is $1.8 million in fiscal year 2023-24 and projected at $2.3 million in fiscal year 2024-25. During the fiscal year 2022-23 budget process, 15 new positions were added. All but one of these positions has been filled. Since July 1, 2022, a total of 30 positions (the new positions plus those that became vacant during the year) have been filled. Twelve positions are currently vacant. This budget recommends two new positions: a Facilities and Fleet Coordinator in the General Services Department and an Assistant Planner in the Long-Range Division (Advance Planning) of the Planning and Environmental Services Department.

The City had historically allocated $100,000 to the City Grants Program. This Program awards small grants to numerous local non-profit organizations that provide public services in ten different Council-approved priority areas. In 2022, the Council elected to increase the amount of this Program to $250,000 per year for fiscal year 2022-23 and fiscal year 2023-24 using ARPA funds. Although these funds have run out for fiscal year 2024-25, this budget recommends supplanting the ARPA funds with City General Fund dollars and maintaining the contribution at $250,000 per year. Revenue from the Cannabis Tax remains volatile and has been projected at approximately $1.1 million for fiscal year 2023-24, which is an approximately $1 million reduction from the annual $2 million tax revenues the City previously collected.
Looking ahead, Goleta faces challenges including deferred maintenance, capital improvement project funding gaps, and economic uncertainties. Factors such as potential recession and federal monetary policy could impact borrowing costs. Despite these challenges, the City is committed to maintaining sound fiscal management by adapting budget strategies as necessary and ensuring the long-term fiscal health of Goleta and its community through prudent reserves maintenance and strategic revenue enhancements.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2023

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting policies of the City of Goleta conform to generally accepted accounting principles as applicable to governments. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard-setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles.
A. Reporting Entity
The City of Goleta (the City) was incorporated February 1, 2002, under the general laws of the State of California. The City operates under the City Council-Manager form of government.
The City provides the following services as authorized by its general laws: public safety, public works, community development and general administrative services.
B. Basis of Presentation
Government-wide Statements
Government-wide financial statements display information about the reporting government as a whole, except for its fiduciary activities. These statements include a single column for the governmental activities of the primary government. The City has no business-type activities and no discretely presented component units. Eliminations have been made in the statement of activities so that certain allocated expenses are recorded only once (by the function to which they were allocated). However, general government expenses have not been allocated as indirect expenses to the various functions of the City. 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 in program revenues are reported instead as general revenues.
Government-wide financial statements are presented using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Under the economic resources measurement focus, all (both current and long term) economic resources and obligations of the reporting government are reported in the government-wide financial statements.
Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenses are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues, expenses, gains, losses, assets and liabilities resulting from exchange and exchange-like transactions are recognized when the exchange takes place.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
B. Basis of Presentation (Continued)
Government-wide Statements (Continued)
Program revenues include charges for services, special assessments, and payments made by parties outside of the reporting government's citizenry if that money is restricted to a particular program. Program revenues are netted with program expenses in the statement of activities to present the net cost of each program.
Amounts paid to acquire capital assets are capitalized as assets in the government-wide financial statements, rather than reported as expenditures. Proceeds of long-term debt are recorded as a liability in the government-wide financial statements, rather than as another financing source. Amounts paid to reduce long-term indebtedness of the reporting government are reported as a reduction of the related liability, rather than as an expenditure.
Fund Financial Statements
The underlying accounting system of the City is organized and operated on the basis of separate funds, each of which is considered to be a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for with a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, deferred inflows of resources, fund balance, revenues and expenditures. Governmental resources are allocated to, and accounted for in, individual funds based upon the purposes for which they are to be spent and the means by which activities are controlled.
Fund financial statements for the primary government's governmental funds and fiduciary funds are presented after the government-wide financial statements. These statements display information about major funds individually and other governmental funds in the aggregate for governmental funds. Fiduciary information includes financial information for the private-purpose trust funds.
Governmental Funds
Sales taxes, property taxes, franchise taxes, gas taxes, motor vehicle in lieu, transient occupancy taxes, grants, cannabis taxes and interest associated with the current fiscal period are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and have been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period to the extent normally collected within the availability period. Other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available when cash is received by the government.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
B. Basis of Presentation (Continued)
Government-wide Statements (Continued)
Revenue recognition is subject to the measurable and availability criteria for the governmental funds in the fund financial statements. Exchange transactions are recognized as revenues in the period in which they are earned (i.e., the related goods or services are provided). Locally imposed derived tax revenues are recognized as revenues in the period in which the underlying exchange transaction upon which they are based takes place. Imposed nonexchange transactions are recognized as revenues in the period for which they were imposed. If the period of use is not specified, they are recognized as revenues when an enforceable legal claim to the revenues arises or when they are received, whichever occurs first. Government-mandated and voluntary nonexchange transactions are recognized as revenues when all applicable eligibility requirements have been met. Revenues, expenditures, assets and liabilities resulting from nonexchange transactions are recognized in accordance with the requirements of GASB Statement No. 33, which requires that local governments defer grant revenue that is not received within their availability period of 120 days after the fiscal year ends to meet the "available" criteria of revenue recognition.
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds are presented using the current financial resources measurement focus. This means that only current assets, current liabilities and deferred inflows are generally included on the balance sheets. The reported fund balance (net current assets) is considered to be a measure of "available spendable resources". Governmental fund operating statements present increases (revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets. Accordingly, they are said to present a summary of sources and uses of "available spendable resources" during a period.
Noncurrent portions of long-term receivables due to governmental funds are reported on their balance sheets in spite of their spending measurement focus.
Recognition of governmental fund type revenue represented by noncurrent receivables are deferred and are shown as unavailable revenues until they become current receivables.
Because of their spending measurement focus, expenditure recognition for governmental fund types excludes amounts represented by noncurrent 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 fiscal year that resources were expended rather than as fund assets. The proceeds of long- term debt are recorded as another financing source rather than as a fund liability.
Amounts paid to reduce long-term indebtedness are reported as fund expenditures.

Fiduciary Funds
The fiduciary fund is accounted for using the "economic resources" measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, all assets and liabilities (whether current or noncurrent) are included on the Statement of Fiduciary Net Position. The Statement of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position presents increases (revenues) and decreases (expenses) in total net position. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the period in which the revenues are earned while expenses are recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred.
C. Fund Classifications
GASB Statement No. 34 defines major funds and requires that the City's major funds are identified and presented separately in the fund financial statements. All other funds, called nonmajor funds, are combined and reported in a single column in the Fund Statements as Other Governmental Funds, regardless of their fund-type.
Major funds are defined as funds that have either assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses equal to ten percent of their fund-type total. The General Fund is always a major fund. The City may also voluntarily select other funds it believes should be presented as major funds.
The City reported the following major governmental funds in the accompanying financial statements:
General Fund - The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City. The General Fund accounts for activities and services traditionally associated with governments such as police, which are financed primarily through tax- generated revenues and are not accounted for and reported in another fund. The General Fund also accounts for deposits advanced to the City to fund development-related services provided by the City's Planning and Environmental Review Department and Public Works Department.
GTIP Special Revenue Fund - Accounts for traffic development impact fees.
Coronavirus State & Local Fiscal Recovery - Accounts for the funding from the American Rescue Plan Act to support expenditures or losses incurred due to the COVID-19 public health emergency.
Additionally, the City reports the following fund types:
Special Revenue Funds - These funds are used to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are restricted or committed to expenditure for specific purposes other than debt service and capital projects.

C. Fund Classifications (Continued)
Fiduciary Fund Type:
Private-Purpose Trust Fund - This fund accounts for the activities of the Successor Agency to the Goleta Redevelopment Agency. The fund's primary purpose is to expedite the dissolution of the former Agency's net position in accordance with ABx1 26, AB 1484 and SB 107. The Private-Purpose Trust Fund is omitted from the government- wide financial statements.
D Property Taxes
California Constitution Article XIII A limits the combined property tax rate to one percent of a property's assessed valuation. Additional taxes may be imposed with voters' approval. Assessed value is calculated at one hundred percent of a property's fair value, as defined by Article XIII A, and may be increased no more than two percent per year, unless a change in ownership or new construction occurs. The State legislature has determined the method of distributing the one percent tax levy among the various taxing jurisdictions.
Properly tax revenues are recognized in the fiscal year for which taxes have been levied and collected within sixty days of fiscal year end. Property taxes are billed and collected as follows:
Secured Unsecured
Valuation/Lien Dates 1-Jan 1-Jan
Levy Dates 1-Jul 1-Jul
Due Dates 1-Nov 1-Aug
February 1 (50%)
Delinquency Dates December 10 (Nov.) 31-Aug

E. Cash and Investments
Investments are reported in the accompanying financial statements at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Changes in fair value that occur during a fiscal year are recognized as investment income reported for that fiscal year. Investment income includes interest earnings and changes in fair value. The City pools cash and investments of all funds. Each fund's share in this pool is displayed in the accompanying financial statements as cash and investments.
Investment income earned by the pooled investments is allocated to the various funds based on each fund's average cash and investment balance, except for investment income associated with funds not legally required to receive pooled investment income which has been assigned to and recorded as revenue of the General Fund.
F. Capital Assets
Capital assets (including infrastructure) are recorded at cost where historical records are available and at an estimated original cost where no historical records exist. Contributed capital assets are valued at acquisition value at the date of contribution. Generally, capital asset purchases in excess of $5,000 are capitalized if they have an expected useful life of three years or more. Capital assets include public domain (infrastructure) general capital assets consisting of certain improvements including roads, streets, sidewalks, medians, and storm drains.
The City uses the straight-line depreciation method in the government-wide financial statements for depreciating storm drains, park equipment, buildings, vehicles, equipment and furniture and leasehold improvements. Depreciation is charged as an expense against operations, and accumulated depreciation is reported on the respective statement of net position. Depreciation begins on the first full year after the asset is placed in service. The range of lives used for depreciation purposes for each capital asset class is as follows:
Item Useful Life
Buildings and improvements 30 to 50 years
Vehicles 5 years
Equipment and furniture 5 to 15 years
Infrastructure:
Pavement 40 years
Sidewalks 50 years
Curbs and gutters 50 years
Bridges 65 years
Hardscape 50 years
Medians 50 years
Parking lots 40 years
Traffic control devices 10 years

G. Deferred Outflows and Inflows of Resources
Pursuant to GASB Statement No. 63, "Financial Reporting of Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources and Net Position," and GASB Statement No. 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. The City has two items that qualify for reporting in this category; refer to Notes 7 and 8 for detailed listing of the deferred outflows of resources the City has reported.
In addition to liabilities, the Statement of Net Position and the Governmental Funds- Balance Sheet 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. The City has two items that qualify for reporting in this category; refer to Notes 6 and 7 for detailed listing of the deferred inflows of resources the City has reported.
H. Prepaid Items
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.
The City accounts for such items using the consumption method.
I. Compensated Absences
An employee benefits payable liability is recorded for unused vacation and similar compensatory leave balances. The employees' entitlement to these balances is attributable to services already rendered, and it is probable that virtually all of these balances will be liquidated by either paid time off or payments upon termination or retirement.
J. Unavailable/Unearned Revenue
Unearned revenue arises when assets are received before revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied. Grants and entitlements received before eligibility requirements are met are recorded as unearned revenue. Governmental funds report unavailable revenue in connection with receivables for revenues that are not considered to be available to liquidate liabilities of the current period. Governmental funds also defer revenue recognition in connection with resources that have been received, but not yet earned.

K. Pensions
For purposes of measuring the net pension liability and deferred outflows/inflows of resources related to pensions and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the City of Goleta's California Public Employee's Retirement System (CalPERS) plans (Plans) and additions to/deductions from the Plans' fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by CalPERS. 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.
L. Other Postemployment Benefits (OPEB)
For purposes of measuring the net OPEB liability and deferred outflows/inflows of resources related to OPEB and OPEB expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the City's plan (OPEB Plan) and additions to/deductions from the Plan's fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis. For this purpose, benefit payments are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms.
Investments are reported at fair value.
M. Fund Balances
Fund balances of the governmental funds are classified as follows:
x Nonspendable Fund Balance - represents amounts that cannot be spent because they are either not in spendable form (such as inventory or prepaid insurance) or are legally required to remain intact (such as notes receivable or principal of a permanent fund).
x Restricted Fund Balance - represents amounts that are constrained by external parties, constitutional provisions, or enabling legislation.
x Committed Fund Balance - represents amounts that can only be used for a specific purpose because of a formal action by the City's govenring board, such as by motion or resolution. Committed amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the governing board removes those constraints by taking the same type of formal action, such as by an ordinance or resolution. Committed fund balance amounts may be used for other purposes with appropriate due process by the governing board. Commitments are typically done through adoption and amendment of the budget. Committed fund balance amounts differ from restricted balances in that the constraints on their use do not come from outside parties, constitutional provisions, or enabling legislation.

M. Fund Balances (Continued)
x Assigned Fund Balance - represents amounts that the City intends to use for a specific purpose, but that do not meet the criteria to be classified as restricted or committed. Intent may be stipulated by the governing board or by an official or body to which the governing board delegates the authority. Specific amounts that are not restricted or committed in a special revenue, capital projects, debt service, or permanent fund are assigned for purposes in accordance with the nature of their fund type or the fund's primary purpose. Assignments within the general fund convey that the intended use of those amounts is for a specific purpose that is narrower than the general purpose of the City.
x Unassigned Fund Balance - represents amounts which are unconstrained in that they may be spent for any purpose. Only the general fund reports a positive unassigned fund balance. Other governmental funds might report a negative balance in this classification because of overspending for specific purposes for which amounts had been restricted, committed or assigned.
It is the City's policy to consider committed amounts as being reduced first, followed by assigned amounts, and then unassigned amounts when expenditures are incurred for purposes for which amounts in any of those unrestricted fund balance classifications could be used.
N. Net Position
GASB Statement No. 63 requires that the difference between assets, added to the deferred outflows of resources, and liabilities added to the deferred inflows of resources, be reported as net position. Net position is classified as either net investment in capital assets, restricted, or unrestricted.
Net position that is net investment in capital assets, consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation, and reduced by the outstanding principal of related debt.
Restricted net position is the portion of net position that has external constraints placed on it by creditors, grantors, contributors, laws, or regulations of other governments, or through constitutional provisions or enabling legislations. Unrestricted net position consists of net position that does not meet the definition of net investment in capital assets or restricted net position.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
O. Interfund Balances/Internal Balances
Advances to and advances from other funds represent interfund loans in the fund financial statements. Advances between funds are offset by a fund liability or by deferred revenue in the applicable governmental funds to indicate that they are not expendable available financial resources. Any unpaid interest due to lack of funds in the borrowing fund increases the principal owed and is reported in the lending fund as deferred revenue. All other outstanding balances between funds are reported as due to and due from other funds. These are generally repaid within the following fiscal year.
P. Budgetary Accounting
The City Council establishes budgets for the General Fund and all Special Revenue Funds, except for certain Special Revenue Funds for which expenditures are controlled by grant funding or by assessments received. There was no budget adopted for the Goleta Library Fund for the year ended June 30, 2023. Budgetary control is legally maintained at the fund level for these funds. Department heads submit budget requests to the City Manager. The City Manager prepares an estimate of revenues and prepares recommendations for the next year's budget. The preliminary budget may or may not be amended by the City Council and is adopted by resolution by the City Council on or before June 30 in accordance with the municipal code. The City Council may amend the budget by motion during the fiscal year. Only the Council can authorize transfers between funds and approve inter-fund loans. The City Manager is authorized to transfer budgeted amounts within a fund without formal council action or approval. The City Manager is authorized to increase expenditures in relation to revenues in funds receiving assigned revenues without approval by the City Council.
Expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at the fund level, which is the legal level of control. Supplemental appropriations, which increase appropriations, may be made during the fiscal year. There were no material supplemental appropriations made for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. Budget information is presented for the General and budgeted Special Revenue Funds in the fund financial statements. The budget information is presented on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. Appropriations, except open project appropriations and unexpended grant appropriations, lapse at the end of each fiscal year and are re-budgeted for the coming year. Under Article XIIIB of the California Constitution (the Gann Spending Limitation Initiative), the City is restricted as to the amount of annual appropriations from the proceeds of taxes, and if proceeds of taxes exceed allowed appropriations, the excess must either be refunded to the State Controller, returned to the taxpayers through revised tax rates or revised fees schedules, or an excess in one year may be offset against a deficit in the following fiscal year. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, based on the calculations by City Management, proceeds of taxes did not exceed the appropriations limit. Budgeted appropriations for the various governmental funds become effective each July 1.

Q. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.

Total cash and investments 83,682,325 $
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 72, "Fair Value Measurements and Application," provides the framework for measuring fair value. The framework categorizes a fair value hierarch that is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the asset. Debt and equity securities classified as Level 1 are valued using prices quoted in active markets for those securities. Debt and equity securities classified in Level 2 are valued using the following approaches: debt securities are normally valued based on price data obtained from observed transactions and market price quotations from broker dealers and/or pricing vendors; equity securities are valued using fair value per share for each fund. Certificates of deposit classified in level 2 are valued using broker quotes that utilize observable market inputs. Securities classified as Level 3 have limited trade information, these securities are priced or using the last trade price or estimated using recent trade prices

Allowable investment instruments are defined in the California Government Code Section 53600, et seq., as amended. If the Code is further revised to allow additional investments or is changed regarding the limits on certain categories of investments, the City is authorized to conform to these changes, excluding those changes that may be prohibited by this policy. Where the Government Code specifies a percentage limitation for a particular category of investments, that percentage is applicable Only at the date of purchase.
The table on the next page identifies the investment types that are authorized for the City, including the fiduciary private purpose trust fund, by the California Government Code (or the City's investment policy, where more restrictive). The table also identifies certain provisions of the California Government Code (or the City's investment policy, where more restrictive) that address interest rate risk, credit risk, and concentration of credit risk. This table does not address investments of debt proceeds held by bond trustee that are governed by the provisions of debt agreements of the City, rather than the general provisions of the California Government Code or the City's investment policy.

Investments of bond funds will be made in conformance with the trust indenture for each issue. Such investments shall be held separately when required. It is the City's intent, at the time of purchase, to hold all investments until maturity to ensure the return of all invested principal dollars; however, sales prior to maturity are permitted. Investment maturities can also be based on a review of cash flow forecasts. Maturities will be scheduled to permit the City to meet all projected cash obligations.
B. Disclosures Relating Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market interest rates. One of the ways that the City manages its exposure to interest rate risk is by purchasing a combination of shorter term and longer term investments, and by timing cash flows from maturities so that a portion of the portfolio is maturing or coming close to maturity evenly over time as necessary to provide the cash flows and liquidity needed for operations.

D. Custodial Credit Risk (Continued)
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 California Government Code and the City's investment policy do not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to custodial credit risk for deposits, other than the following provision for deposits: the California Government Code requires that a financial institution secure deposits made by State or local governmental units by pledging securities In an undivided collateral pool held by a depository regulated under State law (unless so waived by the governmental unit). The fair value of the pledged securities in the collateral pool must equal at least 110% of the total amount deposited by the public agencies. California law also allows financial institutions to secure the City's deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the secured public deposits. As of June 30, 2023, deposits were not subject to custodial credit risk as they were entirely insured or collateralized with securities held by the City or the City's agent in the City's name.
The custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty (e.g., broker dealer) 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 and the City's investment policy do not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to custodial credit risk for investments with respect to investments, custodial credit risk generally applies only to direct investments in marketable securities. Custodial credit risk does not apply to a local government's indirect investment in securities through the use of mutual funds or governmental investment pools (such as LAIF).
E. Investment in State Investment Pool
The City is a voluntary participant in the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) that is regulated by the California Government Code under the oversight of the Treasurer of the State of California. The fair value of the City's investment in this pool is reported in the accompanying basic financial statements at the amounts based upon the City's pro-rata share of the fair value provided by LAIF for the entire LAIF portfolio (in relation to the amortized cost of that portfolio). The balance available for withdrawal Is based on the accounting records maintained by LAIF, which are recorded on an amortized cost basis.

Reimbursements occur when one fund incurs a cost, charges the appropriate benefiting fund, and reduces its related cost as a reimbursement. All other interfund transactions are treated as transfers. Transfers among governmental funds are netted and eliminated as part of the reconciliation to the government-wide financial statements.
A. Due From/To Other Funds

A. General Information about the Pension Plans
Plan Descriptions
All qualified permanent and probationary employees are eligible to participate in the Public Agency Cost-Sharing Multiple-Employer Defined Benefit Pension Plan (Plan or PERF C) administered by the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS.) The Plan consists of a miscellaneous pool and a safety pool (also referred to as “risk pools”), which are comprised of individual employer miscellaneous and safety rate plans, respectively. Plan assets may be used to pay benefits for any employer rate plan of the safety and miscellaneous pools. Accordingly, rate plans within the safety or miscellaneous pools are not separate plans under generally accepted accounting principles. Individual employers may sponsor more than one rate plan in the miscellaneous or safety risk pools. The City participates in two rate plans (two miscellaneous). Benefit provisions under the Plan are established by State statute and City resolution. CalPERS issues publicly available reports that include a full description of the pension plan regarding benefit provisions, assumptions and membership information that can be found on the CalPERS’ website, at www.calpers.ca.gov.
Benefits Provided
CalPERS provides service retirement and disability benefits, annual cost of living adjustments and death benefits to plan members, who must be public employees and beneficiaries. Benefits are based on years of credited service, equal to one year of full- time employment. Members with five years of total service are eligible to retire at age 50 with statutorily reduced benefits. All members are eligible for non-duty disability benefits after 5 years of service. The death benefit is one of the following: the Basic Death Benefit, the 1957 Survivor Benefit, or the Optional Settlement 2W Death Benefit. The cost-of-living adjustments for each plan are applied as specified by the Public Employees’ Retirement Law.

Contributions
Section 20814(c) of the California Public Employees’ Retirement Law (PERL) requires that the employer contribution rates for all public employers are 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 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. Employer contribution rates may change if plan contracts are amended.
Payments made by the employer to satisfy contribution requirements that are identified by the pension plan terms as plan member contribution requirements are classified as plan member contributions. Employer Contributions to the Plan for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 were $1,300,825. The actual employer payments of $1,072,458 made to CalPERS by the City during the measurement period ended June 30, 2022 differed from the City’s proportionate share of the employer’s contributions of $1,128,619 by $(56,161), which is being amortized over the expected average remaining service lifetime in the Public Agency Cost-Sharing Multiple Employer Plan.

NOTE 6 - PENSION PLAN (Continued)
B. Net Pension Liability
The City’s net pension liability for the Plan is measured as the total pension liability, less the pension plan’s fiduciary net position. The net pension liability of the Plan is measured as of June 30, 2022, using an annual actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2021 rolled forward to June 30, 2022 using standard update procedures. A summary of principal assumptions and methods used to determine the net pension liability is as follows.
Actuarial Methods and Assumptions Used to Determine Total Pension Liability
The collective total pension liability for the June 30, 2022 measurement period was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2021, with update procedures used to roll forward the total pension liability to June 30, 2022. The collective total pension liability was based on the following assumptions:
Valuation Date June 30, 2021
Measurement Date June 30, 2022
Actuarial Cost Method Entry Age Actuarial Cost Method
Actuarial Assumptions:
Discount Rate 6.90%
Inflation 2.30%
Projected Salary Increase Varies by Entry Age and Service Mortality Rate Table(1) Derived using CalPERS' membership data for all funds
Post Retirement Benefit Increase The lesser of contract COLA or 2.30% until Purchasing Power Protection Allowance
floor in purchasing power applies, 2.30%
thereafter.
(1) The mortality table used was developed based on CaIPERS' specific data. The probabilities of mortality are based on the 2021 CalPERS Experience Study for the period from 2001 to 2019. Pre-retirement mortality rates include generational mortality improvement using 80% of Scale MP-2020 published by the Society of Actuaries. For more details on this table, please refer to the CalPERS Experience Study and Review of Actuarial Assumptions report from November 2021 that can be found on the CalPERS website.
Long-term Expected Rate of Return
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class.

NOTE 6 - PENSION PLAN (Continued)
B. Net Pension Liability (Continued)
In determining the long-term expected rate of return, CalPERS took into account both short-term and long-term market return expectations. Using historical returns of all of the funds’ asset classes, expected compound (geometric) returns were calculated over the next 20 years using a building-block approach. The expected rate of return was then adjusted to account for assumed administrative expenses of 10 Basis points.
The expected real rates of return by asset class are as follows:
Asset Class
New Strategic
Allocation Real Return 1,2
Global equity - cap-weighted 30.00% 4.54%
Global equity - non cap-weighted 12.00% 3.84%
Private Equity 13.00% 7.28%
Treasury 5.00% 0.27%
Mortgage-backed securities 5.00% 0.50%
Investment grade corporates 10.00% 1.56%

Emerging market debt 5.00% 2.48%
Private debt 5.00% 3.57%
Real assets 15.00% 3.21%
Leverage -5.00% -0.59%
Total 100.00%
2 Figures are based on the 2021 Asset Liability Management study. 1 An expected inflation of 2.30% used for this period.
Change of Assumptions
Effective with the June 30, 2021, valuation date (2022 measurement date), the accounting discount rate was reduced from 7.15% to 6.90%. In determining the long- term expected rate of return, CalPERS took into account long-term market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund cash flows. Projected returns for all asset classes are estimated, combined with risk estimates, and are used to project compound (geometric) returns over the long term. The discount rate used to discount liabilities was informed by the long-term projected portfolio return. In addition, demographic assumptions and the inflation rate assumption were changed in accordance with the 2021 CalPERS Experience Study and Review of Actuarial Assumptions.

NOTE 6 - PENSION PLAN (Continued)
B. Net Pension Liability (Continued)
Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability for PERF C was 6.90%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions from plan members will be made at the current member contribution rates and that contributions from employers will be made at statutorily required rates, actuarially determined. Based on those assumptions, the Plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members.
Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.
Subsequent Events
On July 12, 2021, CalPERS reported a preliminary 21.3% net return on investments for fiscal year 2020-21. Based on the thresholds specified in CalPERS Funding Risk Mitigation policy, the excess return of 14.3% prescribes a reduction in investment volatility that corresponds to a reduction in the discount rate used for funding purposes of 0.20%, from 7.00% to 6.80%. Since CalPERS was in the final stages of the four-year Asset Liability Management (ALM) cycle, the board elected to defer any changes to the asset allocation until the ALM process concluded, and the board could make its final decision on the asset allocation in November 2021.
On November 17, 2021, the board adopted a new strategic asset allocation. The new asset allocation along with the new capital market assumptions, economic assumptions and administrative expense assumption support a discount rate of 6.90% (net of investment expense but without a reduction for administrative expense) for financial reporting purposes. This includes a reduction in the price inflation assumption from
2.50% to 2.30% as recommended in the November 2021 CalPERS Experience Study and Review of Actuarial Assumptions. This study also recommended modifications to retirement rates, termination rates, mortality rates and rates of salary increases that were adopted by the board. These new assumptions will be reflected in the GASB 68 accounting valuation reports for the June 30, 2022, measurement date.
Pension Plan Fiduciary Net Position
Information about the pension plan’s assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, deferred inflows of resources, and fiduciary net position are presented in CalPERS’ audited financial statements, which are publicly available reports that can be obtained at CalPERS’ website, at www.calpers.ca.gov. The plan’s fiduciary net position and additions to/deductions from the plan’s fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis used by the pension plan, which is the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Benefits and refunds are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the terms of the plan. Investments are reported at fair value.

C. Proportionate Share of Net Pension Liability
Amortization of Deferred Outflows and Deferred Inflows of Resources
Under GASB 68, gains and losses related to changes in total pension liability and fiduciary net position are recognized in pension expense systematically over time.
The first amortized amounts are recognized in pension expense for the year the gain or loss occurs. The remaining amounts are categorized as deferred outflows and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions and are to be recognized in future pension expense.
The amortization period differs depending on the source of the gain or loss:
Net difference between
projected and actual
earnings on pension
plan investments
5-year straight-line amortization
All other amounts Straight-line amortization over the expected average remaining service lives (EARSL) of all
members that are provided with benefits
(active, inactive and retired) as of the
beginning of the measurement period
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).
The EARSL for PERF C for the measurement period ending June 30, 2022 is 3.7 years, which was obtained by dividing the total service years of 574,665 (the sum of remaining service lifetimes of the active employees) by 153,587 (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.
D. Pension Expense and Deferred Outflows and Deferred Inflows of Resources Related to Pensions
As of the start of the measurement period (July 1, 2021), the City’s net pension liability was $1,005,977. For the measurement period ending June 30, 2022 (the measurement date), the Local Government incurred a pension expense of $2,338,404.

Pre-retirement and post-retirement mortality rates were based on the CalPERS 2000- 2019 experience study. Mortality improvement was projected fully generational with Scale MP-2021.
Actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2022 valuation were based on a review of plan experience during the period July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022.
Discount rate. GASB 75 requires a discount rate that reflects the following:
a.) The long-term expected rate of return on OPEB plan investments - to the extent that the OPEB plan's fiduciary net position (if any) is projected to be sufficient to make projected benefit payments and assets are expected to be invested using a strategy to achieve that return;
b.) A yield or index rate for 20-year, tax-exempt general obligation municipal bonds with an average rating of AA/Aa or higher - to the extent that the conditions in (a) are not met.
To determine a resulting single (blended) rate, the amount of the plan's projected fiduciary net position (if any) and the amount of projected benefit payments is compared in each period of projected benefit payments. The discount rate used to measure the City's net OPEB liability is based on these requirements and the following information:

NOTE 9 - RISK MANAGEMENT
A. Description of Self-Insurance Pool Pursuant to Joint Powers Agreement
The City of Goleta is a member of the CALIFORNIA JOINT POWERS INSURANCE AUTHORITY (Authority). The Authority is composed of 124 California public entities and is organized under a joint powers agreement pursuant to California Government Code §6500 et seq. The purpose of the Authority is to arrange and administer programs for the pooling of self-insured losses, to purchase excess insurance or reinsurance, and to arrange for group purchased insurance for property and other lines of coverage. The California JPIA began covering claims of its members in 1978. Each member government has an elected official as its representative on the Board of Directors. The Board operates through a nine-member Executive Committee.
B. Self-Insurance Programs of the Authority
Each member pays an annual contribution at the beginning of the coverage period. A retrospective adjustment is then conducted annually thereafter, for coverage years 2012- 13 and prior. Coverage years 2013-14 and forward are not subject to routine annual retrospective adjustment. The total funding requirement for primary self-insurance programs is based on an actuarial analysis. Costs are allocated to individual agencies based on payroll and claims history, relative to other members of the risk-sharing pool. 89 City of Goleta

B. Self-Insurance Programs of the Authority (Continued)
Primary Liability Program
Claims are pooled separately between police and general government exposures. (1) The payroll of each member is evaluated relative to the payroll of other members. A variable credibility factor is determined for each member, which establishes the weight applied to payroll and the weight applied to losses within the formula. (2) The first layer of losses includes incurred costs up to $100,000 for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool's total incurred costs within the first layer. (3) The second layer of losses includes incurred costs from $100,000 to $500,000 for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool's total incurred costs within the second layer. (4) Incurred costs from $500,000 to $50 million are distributed based on the outcome of cost allocation within the first and second loss layers.
The overall coverage limit for each member, including all layers of coverage, is $50 million per occurrence. Subsidence losses also have a $50 million per occurrence limit.
The coverage structure is composed of a combination of pooled self-insurance, reinsurance and excess insurance. Additional information concerning the coverage structure is available on the Authority's website https://cjia.org/coverage/risk-sharing- pools/.
Workers' Compensation Program
Claims are pooled separately between public safety (police and fire) and general government exposures. (1) The payroll of each member is evaluated relative to the payroll of other members. A variable credibility factor is determined for each member, which establishes the weight applied to payroll and the weight applied to losses within the formula. (2) The first layer of losses includes incurred costs up to $75,000 for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool's total incurred costs within the first layer. (3) The second layer of losses includes incurred costs from $75,000 to $200,000 for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool's total incurred costs within the second layer. (4) Incurred costs from $200,000 to statutory limits are distributed based on the outcome of cost allocation within the first and second loss layers.
For 2022-23 the Authority’s pooled retention is $1 million per occurrence, with reinsurance to statutory limits under California Workers’ Compensation Law. Employer’s Liability losses are pooled among members to $1 million. Coverage from $1 million to $5 million is purchased through reinsurance policies, and Employer’s Liability losses from $5 million to $10 million are pooled among members..

NOTE 12 - SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE FORMER REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
On December 29, 2011, the California Supreme Court upheld Assembly Bill XI 26 (the Bill) that provides for the dissolution of all redevelopment agencies in the State of California. This action impacted the reporting entity of the City that previously had reported a redevelopment agency (RDA) within the 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 unit of local government will agree to serve as the "successor agency" to hold the assets until they are distributed to other units of State and local government. On January 10, 2012, the City Council elected to become the Successor Agency for the former redevelopment agency in accordance with the Bill as part of the City Resolution No. 4420.
After the 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). 93 City of Goleta

NOTE 12 - SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE FORMER REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY (Continued)
In future years, successor agencies will only be allocated revenue 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 redevelopment 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 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 agency by the Bill.
As of February 1, 2012, the housing assets, obligations and activities of the Dissolved RDA have been transferred and are reported in a fiduciary fund (private-purpose trust fund) in the financial statements of the City.
A. Settlement Receivable - City of Goleta
The Agency has a settlement receivable from the City of Goleta with a balance of $1,551,882 as of June 30, 2023. See Note 5(C) for further detail.
B. Long-Term Liabilities
In accordance with the provisions of ABX1 26 (Bill) and the California Supreme Court's decision to uphold the Bill, the obligations of the former redevelopment agency became vested with the funds established for the Successor Agency upon the date of dissolution, February 1, 2012. Former tax increment revenues pledged to fund the debts of the former redevelopment agency will be distributed to the Successor Agency subject to the reapportionment of such revenues as provided by the Bill. The 2011 Tax Allocation Bonds were refunded in full in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 with the issuance of the 2020 Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds by reducing the interest rate for a net present value of savings of $8,874,835.

NOTE 13 – PRIOR PERIOD ADJUSTMENT
In the current fiscal year, the General Fund had a prior period adjustment due to the inclusion of the City’s Section 115 Trust being included as a fiduciary activity rather than a part of the City’s General Fund. The City also had the correction of an error on the government-wide statements related to unavailable revenues reclassed to unearned revenue. The effect on financial statements was as follows:

Changes in Assumptions: Effective with the June 30, 2021 valuation date (2022 measurement date), the accounting discount rate was reduced from 7.15% to 6.90%. In determining the long-term expected rate of return, CalPERS took into account long-term market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund cash flows. Projected returns for all asset classes are estimated, combined with risk estimates, and are used to project compound (geometric) returns over the long term. The discount rate used to discount liabilities was informed by the long-term projected portfolio return. In addition, demographic assumptions and the inflation rate assumption were changed in accordance with the 2021 CalPERS Experience Study and Review of Actuarial Assumptions. There were no assumption changes for 2021. For 2020, the Plan adopted a new amortization policy effective with the 2019 actuarial valuation. The new amortization policy shortens the period over which actuarial gains and losses are amortized from 30 years to 20 years with the payments computed as a level dollar amount. In addition, the new policy does not utilize a five-year ramp-up and ramp-down on UAL bases attributable to assumption changes and non-investment gains/losses. The new policy also does not utilize a five-year ramp-down on investment gains/losses. These changes apply only to new UAL bases established on or after June 30, 2019. There were no changes in assumptions in 2019. In 2018, demographic assumptions and inflation rate were changed in accordance to the CalPERS Experience Study and Review of Actuarial Assumptions December 2017. There were no changes in the discount rate in 2019. In 2017, the accounting discount rate was reduced from 7.65 percent to
7.15 percent. In 2016, there were no changes in the discount rate. In 2015, amounts reported reflect an adjustment of the discount rate from 7.5 percent (net of administrative expense) to 7.65 percent (without a reduction for pension plan administrative expense). In 2014, amounts reported were based on the 7.5 percent discount rate.
Changes in Benefit Terms: There were no changes to benefit terms that applied to all members of the Public Agency Pool. Additionally, the figures above do not include any liability impact that may have resulted from Golden Handshakes that occurred after the June 30, 2021 valuation date, unless the liability impact is deemed to be material to the Public A
gency Pool.

The Government Code of the State of California provides for a legal debt limit of 15% of gross assessed valuation.
However, this provision was enacted when assessed valuation was based upon 25% of market value. Effective with the 1981-82 fiscal year, each parcel is now assessed at 100% of market value (as of the most recent change in ownership for that parcel). The computations shown above reflect a conversion of assessed valuation data for each fiscal year from the current full valuation perspective to the 25% level that was in effect at the time that the legal debt margin was enacted by the State of California for local governments located with the State.

REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT
OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Goleta
Goleta, California
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United Stat es, the financial statements of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Goleta, Califor nia (the City), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2023, and the related not es to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated March 27, 2024.
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of ex pressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpos e of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal co ntrol. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or em ployees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in inte rnal control such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. We did not identify deficiencies that we consider to be material weaknesses. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control t hat might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal cont rol that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified.
218
-2-
Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City’s financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit and, accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
The results of our tests disclosed no instances of non compliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effe ctiveness of the City’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

March 27, 2024
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Goleta
Goleta, California
We have audited the financial statements of the City of Goleta, California (the City) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2023, and have issued our report thereon dated March 27, 2024. Professional standards require that we advise you of the following matters relating to our audit.
Our Responsibility in Relation to the Financial Statement Audit
As communicated in our engagement letter dated July 17, 2023, our responsibility, as described by professional standards, is to form and express opinions about whether the financial statements that have been prepared by management with your oversight are presented fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our audit of the financial statements does not relieve you or management of your respective responsibilities.
Our responsibility, as prescribed by professional standards, is to plan and perform our audit to obtain reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance about whether the financial statements are fr ee of material misstatement. An audit of financial statements includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, as part of our audit, we considered the internal control of the City solely for the purpose of determining our audit procedures and not to provide any assurance concerning such internal control.
We are also responsible for communicating significant matters related to the audit that are, in our professional judgment, relevant to your responsibilities in overseeing the financial reporting process. However, we are not required to design procedures for the purpose of identifying other matters to communicate to you.
Planned Scope and Timing of the Audit
We conducted our audit consistent with the planned scope and timing we previously communicated to you.

Compliance with All Ethics Requirements Regarding Independence
The engagement team, others in our firm and our firm, have complied with all relevant ethical requirements regarding independence.
Significant Risks Identified
We have identified the possibility of the following significant risks:
Management's override of internal controls over financial reporting – Management override of internal controls is the intervention by management in handling financial information and making decisions contrary to internal control policy.
Revenue recognition – Revenue recognition is a generally accepted accounting principle that refers to the conditions under which an entity can recognize a transaction as revenue. Auditing standards indicate that recognizing revenue is a presumed fraud risk and usually classified as a significant risk in most audits.
These significant risks are presumptive in most audits and merit attention by the auditors due to the direct impact over financial reporting and internal control processes. Although identified as significant risks, we noted no matters of management override of controls or deviations from generally accepted accounting principles which caused us to modify our audit procedures or any related matters which are required to be communicated to those charged with governance due to these identified risks.
Qualitative Aspects of the City’s Significant Accounting Practices
Significant Accounting Policies
Management has the responsibility to select and use appropriate accounting policies. A summary of the significant accounting policies adopted by the City is included in Note 1 to the financial statements. The City has adopted provisions of Governmental Ac counting Statements Board (GASB) Statement No. 96, Subscription-Based IT Arrangements. No matters have come to our attention that would require us, under professional standards, to inform you about (1) t he methods used to account for significant unusual transactions and (2) the effect of significant accounting policies in controversial or emerging areas for which there is a lack of authoritative guidance or consensus.
Significant Accounting Estimates
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management and are based on management’s current judgments. Those judgments are normally based on knowledge and experience about past and current events and assump tions about future events. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of thei r significance to the financ ial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ markedly from management’s current judgments.
The most sensitive accounting estimates affecting the financial statements are:
Management’s estimate of fair market value of investments is based on market values provided by outside sources. We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop the fair market value of investments in determining that it is reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

Management’s estimate of depreciation expense is based on the useful lives of acquired assets. We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop depreciation expense in determining that it is reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.
Management’s estimate of compensated absence is based on accumulated compensation for vacation, sick leave and compensatory time to employees. We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop the estimate in determining that is reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.
The estimate of the net pension liability is based on actuarial reports provided by independent actuaries.

The estimate of the net OPEB liability is based on actuarial reports provided by independent actuaries.

Financial Statement Disclosures
Certain financial statement disclosures involve significant judgment and are particularly sensitive because of their significance to financial statement users. The most sensitive disclosures affecting the City’s financial statements relate to:
The disclosure of fair value of investments in the notes to the financial statements represents amounts susceptible to market fluctuations.
The disclosure of capital assets, net, in the notes to the basic financial statements is based on historical information which could differ from actual useful lives of each capitalized item.
The disclosure of compensated absences in t he notes to the financial statements is based on accumulated compensation for vacation, sick leave and compensatory time to employees. Actual future liabilities may vary from disclosed estimates.
The disclosure of net pension liability in the notes to the financial statements is based on actuarial assumptions. Actual future liabilities may vary from disclosed estimates.
The disclosure of net OPEB liability in the notes to the financial statements is based on actuarial assumptions. Actual future liabilities may vary from disclosed estimates.
The financial statement disclosures are neutral, consistent, and clear.
Significant Difficulties Encountered during the Audit
We encountered no significant difficulties in dealing wi th management relating to the performance of the audit.

Uncorrected and Corrected Misstatements
For purposes of this communication, professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements identified during the aud it, other than those that we belie ve are trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management. Further, professional standards require us to also communicate the effect of uncorrect ed misstatements related to prior periods on the relevant classes of transactions, account balances or disclosures, and the financial statements as a whole and each applicable opinion unit. None of the misstatements identified by us as a result of our audit procedures and corrected by management were material, either individually or in the aggregate, to the financial statements taken as a whole.
Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, professional standards define a disagreement with management as a matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, concerning a financial accounting, reporting, or auditing matter, which could be significant to the City’s financial statements or the auditor’s report. No such disagreements arose during the course of the audit.
Representations Requested from Management
We have requested certain written representations from management, which are included in the attached letter dated March 27, 2024.
Management’s Consultations with Other Accountants
In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and accounting matters. Management informed us that, and to our knowledge, there were no consultations with other accountants regarding auditing and accounting matters.
Other Significant Matters, Findings, or Issues
In the normal course of our professional association with the City, we generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principl es and auditing standards, operating and regulatory conditions affecting the entity, and operational plans and strat egies that may affect the risks of material misstatement. None of the matters discussed resulted in a condition to our retention as the City’s auditors.
Other Information Included in Annual Reports
Pursuant to professional standards, our responsibility as auditors for other information, whether financial or nonfinancial, included in the City’s audited financia l statements, does not extend beyond the financial information identified in the audit report, and we are not required to perform any procedures to corroborate such other information. However, in accordance with such standards:
We applied certain limited procedures to the r equired supplementary information (RSI) that supplements the basic financial statements. Our pr ocedures consisted of inquiries of management regarding the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the ba sic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We did not audit the RSI and do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the RSI.

We were engaged to report on the supplementary information, which accompany the financial statements but are not RSI. With respect to this supplementary information, we made certain inquiries of management and evaluated the form, content, and methods of preparing the information to determine that the information complies with accoun ting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the method of preparing it has not changed from the prior period, and the information is appropriate and complete in relation to our audit of the financial st atements. We compared and reconciled the supplementary information to the underlying accounting records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves.
Our responsibility also includes communicating to you any information which we believe is a material misstatement of fact. Nothing came to our attention that caused us to believe that such information, or its manner of presentation, is materially inconsistent wi th the information, or m anner of its presentation, appearing in the financial statements.
This information is intended solely for the information and use of the City Council and management of the City and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
