Honorable Mayor Rios and Council Members
Chairperson Rios and Successor Agency Board Members
Chairperson Rios and Gonzales Municipal Electric Authority P.O. Box 647
Gonzales, California 93926
Dear Council and Board Members:
I am pleased to present to your Council and Board the Recommended Budget for FY 2024-2025.
It goes without saying that our City of Gonzales truly embodies our motto of Love, Care and Connect. In FY 23/24 we hit major milestones that advance us to the next level of opportunity for our community. In April, we celebrated the groundbreaking of our highly anticipated Dennis and Janice Caprara Community Center Complex that will be under construction for the next two years. We made major advancements in the upgrading and reconstruction of our Industrial Wastewater Plant and now with the agreement on hand for the State Revolving Fund (SRF) loan we can move to the next steps and continue to turn the gears to prepare for its construction. On the housing front, we completed the public review period of the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Vista Lucia project and its currently going through the final stages to be completed. This marks a major milestone in the project.
For our steadfast focus to bring housing to our community, the Monterey County Business Council awarded us the Community Builders Award during their gala event in April 2024.
Moreover, although we are working to reduce costs and are being more diligent about generating and collecting revenue, as well as setting up better cost recovery systems, through partnerships we have been able to bring more activities to our community. Partnerships with Alliance on Aging, Save the Whales and the Blue Zones project have allowed us to create a space for a community garden and have helped us bring more programming for our local senior citizens. Measure K and X continue to be strong and provide funding for some of our key programs including our sports league, aquatics, our youth leadership development, Kid Power programs, Hartnell Promise as well as support for our Fire Department operations. We have been mindful of prioritizing needs and have been persistently submitting grant applications for support for our internal operations. We have received two grants and are waiting to hear from six others.
Of the overall budget amount, the General Fund appropriations total $7,354,639. An increase of
10.4% from FY 2023-2024. The change is primarily driven by the work on the Janice and Dennis Caprara Community Center, the increase to worker’s compensation and liability insurance, the new employee bargaining agreement, as well as the employee and management salaries and benefits. 147 Fourth Street · PO Box 647, Gonzales, CA 93926 · Phone: (831) 675-5000 · Fax: (831) 675-2644 2 Overall, revenues are $49,315,025 of that, the General Fund is $8,159,087 which is 13.5% higher than FY 2023-2024 mainly due to a slight increase in sales and property tax revenues including Measure X and K and the sale of the City cell tower leases.
While the budget remains tight, the FY 2024-2025 budget reflects the Council’s priorities. For example, it funds all authorized positions, maintains core operations, and it supports the continuation of our major project: the Dennis and Janice Caprara Community Center Complex and the expansion of the Industrial Wastewater System.
The budget reflects an increase in our General Fund Balance Reserve (rainy day fund) due to the sale of the City cell tower leases.
As your Council reviews the budget document, please keep in mind that any increases in expenditures or funding of new programs and/or initiatives should be done cautiously because they will need to be taken from another section of the budget. This approach is recommended because it is important to continue working on building our General Fund Reserve back up to at least $1 million dollars.
Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation to all my staff and Mike Howard whose service, cooperation, and commitment to excellence made this document possible.
Michael Rodriquez, City Attorney, who has been a great partner and provided invaluable advice to all departments during the year, Mrs. Mary Villegas for her tireless hard work and to the entire staff of the City of Gonzales for their continued dedication to our community.
Respectfully submitted,
Carmen Gil, MPA
