Meeting Date: February 23, 2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Matthew Bronson, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Nick Szamet, Administrative Services Director SUBJECT: FY 2024-25 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report
RECOMMENDATION
Receive and file the FY 2024-25 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report
BACKGROUND
The Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) is a set of financial statements comprising all financial activity of the City that has been reviewed by an independent auditor contracted by the Council using accepted standards and report formats to ensure the accuracy of the City’s financial practices and overall financial condition.
The goal of the independent audit is to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements of the City are free of material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error. The independent audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
The Independent Auditors’ Report presented on page eight of the ACFR, shown in Attachment 1, issued a clean and unmodified opinion, meaning the financial statements and other information reported in the ACFR present fairly in all material respects the financial position of the City as of June 30, 2025.
Key financial highlights for FY 2024-25 identified in the audit include:
• The Council adopted a five-year Capital Improvement Program in June 2025 that identifies eight projects for FY 2025-26 with a budget of nearly $12 million across all City funds. • The Council also adopted a five-year wastewater rate schedule in June 2025 and began financing $4.8 million in bond financing to replace city sewers.
The City is in the 10th year of the multi-year Local Street Rehabilitation program funded by Measure K-14, which was approved by voters in 2014 and provides for up to $48 million in bond funds for repair of residential streets over a 25-year period. To date, $38 million in bonds Staff Report: FY 2024-25 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report Page 2 February 23, 2026
Multi-Year Goals
☐ Public Safety and Community Services ☐ Economic Development and Housing ☐ Community Infrastructure ☒ Financial and Organization Sustainability Council Priorities
☒ Water & Wastewater Infrastructure ☐ Community Engagement • have been issued for these projects resulting in the improvement of 70% of the City’s residential streets.
• General Fund revenues totaled $21.2 million in FY 2024-25. This figure was higher than in prior years, in part due to grant funding for the West Grand Avenue Streetscape Project. The City’s General Fund revenue exceeded expenditures by $2.4 million in FY 2024-25. However, carryover General Fund contributions for the West Grand Avenue Streetscape Project, netted a reduction in fund balance by $1.8 million as was planned and approved by Council over the life of the project.
• At year-end FY 2024-25, the City’s General Fund maintained strong reserve levels of 31% of operating expenses higher than the City’s policy of at least 25%.
Overall, the audit affirmed that the City ended FY 2024-25 in a positive financial position with an unassigned General Fund balance of $7 million. However, unassigned General Fund balance does not include carry-over amounts for unspent capital projects, which would reduce the available reserves to approximately $5.3 million.
A representative from the City’s independent auditor (Glenn Burdette) will be available during the meeting to answer any questions from Council regarding the FY 2024-25 ACFR.

To the Honorable Mayor, Members of the City Council and Grover Beach Community, We are pleased to present the City of Grover Beach’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. The City follows a policy of preparing a complete set of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America after the end of each fiscal year. These financial statements are audited by a licensed certified public accounting firm.
This report consists of management’s representations concerning the finances of the City of Grover Beach. Consequently, management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of all the information presented in this report. To provide a reasonable basis for making these representations, management of the City of Grover Beach has established a comprehensive internal control framework that is designed both to protect the City’s assets from loss, theft, or misuse and to communicate sufficient reliable information for the City of Grover Beach’s financial statements to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Because the cost of internal controls should not outweigh their benefits, the City of Grover Beach’s comprehensive framework of internal controls has been designed to provide reasonable rather than absolute assurance that the financial statements will be free from material misstatement. As management, we assert that, to the best of our knowledge and belief, this financial report is complete and reliable in all material respects.
The City of Grover Beach’s financial statements have been audited by Glenn Burdette, a licensed certified public accounting firm. The goal of the independent audit was to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements of the City of Grover Beach for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, are free of material misstatement. The independent audit involved examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting amounts and disclosures in the financial statements; assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management; and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. The independent auditing firm concluded, based upon the audit, that there was a reasonable basis for rendering an unmodified opinion that the City of Grover Beach’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, are fairly presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The independent auditors’ report is presented as the first component of the financial section of this report.
This report contains financial information and data using the new financial reporting format established for governments by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The GASB sets accounting and financial reporting standards for governments in the United States of America. The financial reporting standards require that management provide a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements in the form of Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). This letter of transmittal is designed to complement the MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it. The City of Grover Beach’s MD&A can be found immediately following the report of the independent auditors.

The City of Grover Beach was incorporated in 1959 and is located on the Central Coast of California about midway between San Francisco and Los Angeles. The City is located in San Luis Obispo County, which is visited annually by a substantial number of tourists seeking to enjoy the area’s moderate climate, beautiful ocean views and sunsets, fine restaurants, and the relaxing atmosphere unique to coastal communities. The city has a population of approximately 12,500 and about 55 percent of the city’s properties are residential.
The City operates under a council-manager form of government. Policy making and legislative authority are vested in the City Council consisting of the Mayor elected at-large and four Council Members elected by district. The Council is responsible, among other matters, for passing ordinances, adopting the City budget, appointing committees, and hiring the City Manager and City Attorney. The City Manager is responsible for carrying out the policies and ordinances of the City Council, for appointing other employees, and otherwise managing daily operations of the City.
The City provides a full range of municipal services including police protection, construction and maintenance of City streets, sanitary services, water system, storm drains, bridges and other infrastructure assets, and park maintenance, and community recreation activities. In terms of business type activities, the City provides water, wastewater, and storm water collection services through operation of its utility enterprises. Fire protection is provided through the Five Cities Fire Authority, Joint Powers Agency with the City of Arroyo Grande.
The City’s biennial budget serves as the foundation for the City of Grover Beach’s financial planning and control system. All departments of the City submit requests for appropriations to the City Manager each fiscal year. The City Manager uses these requests as a starting point for developing a proposed budget which is presented to the City Council every two fiscal years. The Council holds a public hearing on the proposed budget and then ultimately adopts a formal budget. The budget is adopted by fund, function, department, and object. The Council periodically reviews during the fiscal year the City’s actual financial activity in relationship to the original budget, and as necessary amends the original budget to reflect changing conditions.
Budget to actual comparisons are provided in this report for each governmental fund for which an appropriated biennial budget has been adopted. The General Fund’s comparison is presented as required supplementary information in a separate section of this report immediately following the notes to basic financial statements. For the City’s other governmental-type funds, budget to actual comparison schedules are presented as optional information in the section of this report containing combining financial statements and individual fund schedules.
Factors Affecting Financial Condition
The information presented in the basic financial statements should be considered in relationship to the City’s economic environment and the City’s financial position.
Grover Beach Economy
The City of Grover Beach covers 2.31 square miles and is located along the beautiful Central Coast of California, 92 miles north of Santa Barbara and 150 miles south of Monterey. Grover Beach shares borders with Pismo Beach and Arroyo Grande and is just 20 minutes south of San Luis Obispo, home of Cal Poly State University. Grover Beach provides for a unique quality of life Docusign Envelope ID: 41A2C975-DD63-4B59-A925-3E85DF433444 3 154 South Eighth Street Grover Beach, California 93433 www.groverbeach.org (805) 473-4550 for over 12,000 residents and draws tourists with its moderate coastal climate and diverse recreational opportunities. Activities include weekly summer concert series, hiking, bike riding, jogging along the white sandy beaches, dunes and sea cliffs, kayaking, fishing, clamming, surfing, golfing, horseback riding, wine tasting, and off-road vehicle riding. The City provides entrance to California’s only drivable stretch of beach.
Grover Beach is a community-oriented beach town offering a range of housing options with a median home price of $704,000. About 50% of the City’s total revenues, applicable to its governmental-type activities, are derived from tax revenues; approximately 18% is from sales tax revenues and 25% is from local property taxes. Other top revenue generators are transient occupancy tax and cannabis tax.
The City had a capital outlay of $7.8 million in FY 2024-25 mostly for completing the West Grand Avenue Project which included nearly $1.7 million in General Fund money. Additional projects are planned for completion in FY 2025-26. The City will continue its practice of seeking out Federal, State, and Local grants and allocations to provide financing for the City’s capital projects. These projects in fiscal year 2025-26 include the Ramona Garden Park improvement project and sewer infrastructure project.
Cash Resources and Practices
During the fiscal year, almost all the idle cash was invested by the City in the State of California Local Agency Investment Fund (a pooled investment arrangement among California governments). As of June 30, 2025, the City had $14.1 million invested across all funds. The City ended the fiscal year with approximately $23.4 million in cash and investments, which includes the proceeds from the Measure K-14 bond sales. This amount is more than sufficient to enable the City to move forward into the new fiscal year and conduct operations.
Risk Management
The City limits its exposure to losses from unfavorable events, employee injuries, and from the risk of damage to City property by participating with other governments in an insurance pool.
Under the arrangement, the risk of loss is not transferred to the pool for the first $50,000 of each workers’ compensation claim and the first $30,000 of each liability claim. Losses above those amounts are covered by insurance provided by the insurance pool and its purchased excess insurance coverage.
Long-Term Debt Administration
The City’s enterprises issued water revenue bonds in 2020 in the amount of approximately $4.4 million, with debt service payments due each March and September, beginning in September 2020 and funded by utility rates. Debt currently is held by the Successor Agency in the amount of $2.9 million. Debt service payments are due each February and August, and all payments have been made in a timely manner. In FY 2021-22 $10 million in General Obligation Street Repair bonds were issued bringing total debt issuance to $38 million. Additionally, the City has $4.2 million in debt obligations related to the 2020 Water Revenue Bonds. The City can expect additional debt issuances for both the General Obligation Street bonds and business enterprise funds in future fiscal years.

The City directly participates in the Public Employees’ Retirement System (PERS) of the State of California for all employees. The City funds each fiscal year’s required contribution to the miscellaneous and public safety plans as determined by PERS based upon actuarial information.
Additional information about the plan is included in the notes to the basic financial statements.
Challenges for Fiscal Year 2025-26
In fiscal year 2025-26, there are continued near term fiscal uncertainties for the City to monitor.
Inflation has slowed but remains persistent and some local uncertainties still remain in the cannabis industry. Additional challenges include deferred maintenance needs in the City’s infrastructure, including water system infrastructure, and City buildings and facilities.

Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of Grover Beach
Grover Beach, California
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the accompanying financialstatements ofthe governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Grover Beach, California,(theCity), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2025, 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 opinions, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City, as of June 30, 2025, and the respective changes in financial position, and, where applicable, cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the Unites 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.
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. 11 12
Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of Grover Beach
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 Responsibility 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 generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards 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 financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards we:
• Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing opinions on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinions are expressed. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements. • Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. 13 Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of Grover Beach
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, Budgetary comparison schedules – General and Major Special Revenue Fund, the Schedule of Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability, and Schedule of Pension Plan Contributions, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and, although not a basic part of the 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 opinions or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express opinions 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 combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and Schedule of Debt Service Coverage, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting andother 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 opinions, the combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and Schedule of Debt Service Coverageare fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information included in the annual comprehensive financial report. The other information comprises the introductory and statistical sections but does not include the basic financial statements and our auditors’ report thereon. Our opinions on the basic financial statements do not cover the other information, and we do not express opinions or any form of assurance thereon. 14 Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of Grover Beach
In connection with out 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 February 17, 2026, 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 intenral control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide opinions on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Governemnt Auditing Standards in considering the City’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2025
The management’s discussion and analysis of the City of Grover Beach presents a narrative overview and analysis of the City’s financial activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. City management encourages readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with the accompanying transmittal letter located in the introductory section and the City's financial statements, which follow this section.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Key financial highlights for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, are as follows:
• The Council approved a five-year Capital Improvements Program (CIP) in June 2025 that identifies 11 projects for the next fiscal year 2026 with a budget of $11.9 million. The largest funded category is sewer followed by streets and storm drains. • The City is in the ninth year of the multi-year Local Street Rehabilitation project funded by Measure K-14 which provides up to $48 million in bond funds for repair of residential streets over the next 25 years. The City has completed fifteen street projects with Measure K-14 funds.
As of June 30, 2025, total expenditures for street projects are $35.5 million, with approximately $600,000 of the total expenditures in FY 2024-25.
• General Fund revenues decreased by 11% or $2.5 million when compared to the previous fiscal year. The reduction is largely due to pass through of intergovernmental funds to pay for capital projects. Although cannabis tax and sales tax revenue reported a slight increases 2.5% over the prior year respectively.
• The City’s General Fund revenue and other financing sources (uses) exceeded expenditures by $2.4 million in fiscal year 2024-25. However, the overall cash position of the General Fund has decreased by roughly $5.78 million year over year largely due to the completion of West Grand Avenue project which required a transfer to cover costs to the Capital Projects Fund.
OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements presented herein include all the activities of the City of Grover Beach using the integrated approach as prescribed by GASB Statement No. 34. This discussion and analysis are intended to serve as an introduction to the City’s basic financial statements. The City’s basic financial statements comprise of three components: (1) government-wide financial statements; (2) fund financial statements; and (3) notes to the financial statements. This report also contains other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements. • The government-wide financial statements provide both long-term and short-term information about the City’s overall financial status.

- The governmental funds statements tell how government services, such as general government, public safety, community development, parks and recreation and public works were financed in the short-term as well as what remains for future spending.
- Proprietary fund statements offer short and long-term financial information about the activities the government operates like businesses, such as the City’s water and wastewater systems.
The basic financial statements also include notes that provide additional information essential to understanding the data contained in the government-wide and fund financial statements.

Government-Wide Financial Statements
The Government-Wide Financial Statements report information about the City as a whole using accounting methods similar to those used by private-sector companies or the accrual basis of accounting. These statements include all assets of the City (including infrastructure) as well as all liabilities (including long-term debt).
The Statement of Net Position presents information on all the City’s assets and liabilities, as well as any deferred outflows or inflows, with the difference between them reported as net position.
Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the overall financial position of the City is improving or deteriorating.
The Statement of Activities includes all the City’s fiscal year’s revenue and expenditures regardless of when cash is received or paid. These government-wide statements report the City’s net position and how the City’s net position has changed during the fiscal year.
Both government-wide statements distinguish the City’s functions that are principally supported by taxes and charges for services (governmental activities) that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The governmental activities include general government, public safety, community development, public works and parks and recreation. The business-type activities of the City include water, water conservation and wastewater.
Fund Financial Statements
A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The fund financial statements include statements for the three categories of activities – governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary. The governmental activities are prepared using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. The business-type (proprietary) activities are prepared using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting.
The fiduciary activities include agency funds, which only report a balance sheet and do not have a measurement focus, and trust funds which include activities of the dissolved Redevelopment Agency.
The fund financial statements provide more detailed information about the City's most significant funds, not the City as a whole. Some funds are required to be established by State law and by bond covenants, however management may establish other funds to help control and manage money for purposes or to show that it is meeting legal responsibilities for using certain taxes, grants, and other money.
The City has three types of fund financial statements:
• Governmental funds – Most of the City's basic services are reported in governmental funds, which focus on how money flows in and out of those funds and the balances left at fiscal yearend that are available for spending. These funds are reported using an accounting method called 18 CITY OF GROVER BEACH
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2025
modified accrual accounting, which measures cash and all other financial assets that can readily be converted to cash. The governmental funds statements provide a detailed short-term view of the City’s general government operations, such as police, public works, community development, and parks and recreation, and the basic services it provides. Governmental funds information helps determine whether there are more or fewer financial resources that can be spent in the near future to finance the City's programs. Because this information does not encompass the additional long-term focus of the government-wide statements, reconciliations that explain the relationship (or differences) between governmental funds and the governmental activities follow the governmental funds statements. • Proprietary funds – Services for which the City charges customers a fee are generally reported in proprietary funds. Proprietary fund statements, like the government-wide statements, provide both long and short-term financial information about the activities the City operates like businesses, such as utility services.
• Fiduciary funds – The City’s fiduciary activities are reported in a separate statement of fiduciary net position and statement of changes in fiduciary net position. These activities are excluded from the City’s other financial statements since 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 purposes.
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.
Required Supplementary Information
The notes to the basic financial statements are followed by a section of required supplementary information (RSI) that further explains and supports the information in the financial statements.
Other Supplementary Information
In addition to the basic financial statements, accompanying notes and required supplementary information, this report also presents certain other supplementary information including combining fund statements for the City’s non-major special revenue, capital projects and debt service funds, individual budget and actual statements for non-major and major funds and combining statement of net position for fiduciary funds. 19 CITY OF GROVER BEACH

GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Analysis of Net Position
The net position of the City increased from $9.3 million to $15 million at June 30, 2025.
The following analysis of governmental and business-type activities provides more detailed information for these changes.
Governmental Activities
• Current and other assets and deferred outflows of resources, in total, decreased by $2,011,987. Deferred outflows of resources represent the unamortized portion of changes to the net pension liability, which decreased by $1.4 million from the prior fiscal year.
• Current and other liabilities increased by $1.7 million from the prior fiscal year. • Restricted net position, representing amounts that must be used in accordance with external restrictions decreased $312,403. The remaining balance of unrestricted net position may be used to meet the City’s ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.
Net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government’s financial position. For FY 2024-25, assets and deferred outflows exceded liabilities and deferred inflows by $674,733. It should be noted that the Street Rehabilitation and Repair Fund includes bonds, although the street repairs and maintenance that are paid from the bond proceeds do not get capitalized; they 2024 2025 2024 2025 2024 2025

are expensed in the year the cost is incurred. This creates a negative balance in the net investments in capital assets.
Business-Type Activities
• Total assets and deferred outflows of resources increased by $247,782 due to the liquidation of City’s interest in assets held in the Central Coast Blue JPA as well as incremental rate increases for water and sewer. Deferred outflows of resources represent the unamortized portion of changes to the net pension liability, which decreased by $307,725 from the prior fiscal year.
• Net investment in capital assets increased by $411,582 due to capital asset additions, deletions or adjustments. Additional capital asset information is in the Capital Asset section of this MD&A and in Note 4 to the financial statements. • Business-type activities use the same accrual basis of accounting as the Proprietary Funds and are used to account for those activities that are supported primarily by user charges to external customers. This includes water, water conservation and wastewater services.
For FY 2024-25, assets and deferred outflows exceeded liabilities and deferred inflows by $14.3 million for business type activities.

Governmental Activities
Governmental activities increased the City’s net position by about $5 million. Total resources available during the year to finance governmental activities consisted of program revenues of $9 million, and general revenues of $18 million. Total expenses for governmental activities during the fiscal year were $22.7 million. Net interfund transfers for governmental activities from business type activities during the fiscal year were $790,717.
Key factors are as follows:
• Total revenue decreased by $1.6 million, from $28.6 million in the prior fiscal year to $27 million in the current fiscal year. This decrease is mainly attributed to grant revenues which have fluctuated from year-to-year based on the completion of ongoing capital projects.
• There was a increase in cannabis tax revenue of $ 26,681 as well as sales tax, which saw a increase of 147,723. Property tax revenuesincreased by $306,566 and increases in 3.8%. • Total expenses for governmental activities decreased by $6.6 million during the fiscal year mainly due to absence of CDBG pass through of $5 million in the prior year. • Interfund transfers included $5.1 transfers out mainly for passthrough grant activity and General Fund carryover amounts used reimburse CIP projects.
Business-Type Activities
The City’s net position from business-type activities increased by $656,079. The programs for the business-type activities include water, water conservation and wastewater utilities.
Key factors are as follows:
• Water net position increased by approximately $905,971 largely driven by income from JPA dissolution. Operating revenuesincreased by $69,181. Operating expenses decreased by $289,495, mostly related to lack of capital project activity. • Wastewater net position decreased by $256,041 due mostly to higher operating expenditures.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE CITY’S FUNDS
Governmental Funds
The focus on the City’s governmental funds is to account for the near-term inflows, outflows and balances of resources that are available for spending. This information is useful in assessing the City’s financing requirements. Specifically, unassigned fund balance is a useful measure of the agency’s net resources available to meet current and future needs at the end of the fiscal year.
Types of governmental funds reported by the City include the General Fund, Special Revenue Funds, Capital Projects Fund, and Debt Service Fund.
As of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, the City’s governmental funds reported a combined ending fund balance of $16.9 million. The General Fund decreased by $1.8 million mainly due to CIP project costs for West Grand Avenue project which had been allocated carried over from prior fiscal years.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, revenues for governmental funds overall totaled $28 million or $1.6 million less than the prior fiscal year. Expenditures for governmental funds totaled $30.4 million and included construction costs for major street rehabilitation, park rehabilitation and various other CIP projects and capital assets included in Capital Assets.
The City’s governmental funds are classified as major or nonmajor. Major funds meet the specified criteria of revenues, expenditures, assets, or liabilities of at least 10% of corresponding totals for all governmental and enterprise funds and at least 5% of the aggregate amount for all government and enterprise funds. A fund that does not meet the specified criteria can still be classified as a major fund if it is deemed important to financial statement users. For the current fiscal year 2024- 25, major funds included the General Fund, Street Rehabilitation and Repair Fund, and the Street Improvements Debt Service Fund. The City’s nonmajor funds that did not meet the specified criteria for a major fund are listed under Other Governmental Funds on the Governmental Funds Balance Sheet and Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances.
Proprietary Funds
The City’s proprietary funds statements provide the same type of information found in the government-wide financial statements but in more detail. The proprietary fund financial statements provide separate information for each of the enterprise funds.
At the end of the fiscal year, the unrestricted net position for the Water, Water Conservation and Wastewater Funds are $3.6 million, $369,281, and $4 million respectively, for a combined total of approximately $7.9 million in unrestricted net position for the proprietary funds. Key factors concerning the finances of the enterprise funds have been addressed previously in the discussion of the City’s business-type activities.

Notes to Basic Financial Statements
June 30, 2025
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Reporting Entity
The accompanying basic financial statements present the financial activity of the City of Grover Beach. There are no component units included in this report which meet the criteria of GASB Statement No. 14, The Financial Reporting Entity, as amended by GASB Statements No. 39, No. 61, and No. 80.
B. Basis of Presentation
The City’s basic financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board is the acknowledged standard setting body for establishing accounting and financial reporting standards followed by governmental entities in the United States of America.
UGovernment-wide Statements
The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities display information about the City.
These statements include the financial activities of the overall City government, except for fiduciary activities. Eliminations have been made to minimize the double counting of internal activities. The City does not eliminate interfund services provided and used during the process of consolidation. Governmental activities generally are financed through taxes, intergovernmental revenues, and other non-exchange transactions.
The Statement of Activities presents a comparison between direct expenses and program revenues for each segment of the City’s governmental activities. Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated with a program or function and, therefore, are clearly identifiable to a function. Program revenues include (a) charges paid by the recipients of goods or services offered by the programs, (b) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational needs of a particular program, and (c) fees, grants, and contributions that are restricted to financing the acquisition or construction of capital assets. Revenues that are not classified as program revenues, including all taxes, are presented as general revenues.
UFund Financial Statements
The fund financial statements provide information about the City’s funds, including fiduciary funds.
Separate statements for each fund category—governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary—are presented. The emphasis of fund financial statements is on major individual funds, each of which is displayed in a separate column. All remaining governmental funds are aggregated and reported as nonmajor funds.
Proprietary fund financial statements include a Statement of Net Position; a Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position; and a Statement of Cash Flows for all 44 CITY OF GROVER BEACH
Notes to Basic Financial Statements
June 30, 2025
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) B. Basis of Presentation (Continued)
Fund Financial Statements (Continued)
proprietary funds.
Proprietary funds are 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 Net Position. The Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in 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 they are earned while expenses are recognized in the period in which liability is incurred.
Operating revenues in the proprietary funds are those revenues that are generated from the primary operation of the fund. All other revenues are reported as nonoperating revenues.
Operating expenses are those expenses that are essential to the primary operations of the fund.
All other expenses are reported as nonoperating expenses.
Fiduciary funds are used to account for assets held by the City in a trustee capacity or as a custodian for individuals, private organizations, other governmental units, and/or other funds. Fiduciary Funds use the full accrual basis of accounting and a measurement focus on the periodic determination of additions, deductions, and net position restricted for others. Fiduciary funds are reported in the fund financial statements but are not included for government-wide reporting purposes.
C. Major Funds
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, 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 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 FundU
This fund accounts for all financial resources except those to be accounted for in another fund. It is the general operating fund of the City.
UStreet Rehabilitation and Repair Fund
This is a special revenue fund that accounts for bond proceeds from the issuance of debt and is restricted to the repairs and maintenance of City streets. 45 CITY OF GROVER BEACH

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) C. Major Funds (Continued)
Capital Projects Fund
This is a capital projects fund that accounts for major capital projects activity.
Street Improvements Debt Service Fund
This fund is held by the County of San Luis Obispo and pays the semiannual principal and interest payments for the general obligation bonds issued to finance street improvements within the City.
The City reported the following major proprietary funds:
UWater Fund
This fund accounts for the activities of providing water to residents of the City.
UWastewater Fund
This fund accounts for the activities associated with the sewage treatment plant, pumping stations, and collection systems.
UWater Conservation Fund
This fund accounts for water conservation fees and is restricted to improving water conservation within the City.
D. Basis of Accounting
The government-wide, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the full accrual basis of accounting.
Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred, regardless of when the related cash flows take place.
Governmental funds are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under this method, revenues are recognized when measurable and available. The City considers all revenues reported in the governmental funds to be available if the revenues are collected within sixty days after fiscal year-end. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for principal and interest on general long-term debt, claims and judgments, and compensated absences, which are recognized as expenditures to the extent that they have matured. Capital asset acquisitions are reported as expenditures in governmental funds. Proceeds of long-term debt and acquisitions under financed purchases are reported as other financing sources.
Non-exchange transactions, in which the City gives or receives value without directly receiving or giving equal value in exchange, include property taxes, grants, entitlements, and donations. On an accrual basis, revenues from property taxes are recognized in the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied. Revenue from grants, entitlements, and donations is recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements have been satisfied. Other revenues susceptible to accrual include other taxes, intergovernmental revenues, interest, and charges for services. Grant revenues are recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements are met. 46 CITY OF GROVER BEACH

reimbursement grants, categorical block grants, and general revenues. Thus, both restricted and unrestricted net assets may be available to finance program expenditures/expenses. The City’s policy is to first apply restricted grant resources to such programs, followed by general revenues if necessary.
E. Compensated Absences
Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 101 identifies certain items that should be accrued as a liability for compensated absences for leave time that (1) has been earned for services previously rendered by employees, (2) accumulates and is allowed to be carried over to subsequent years, and (3) is more likely than not to be used as time off or settled during or upon separation from employment. For governmental type funds, the current liability appears in the respective funds. All vacation paid is accrued when incurred in the government-wide and proprietary funds financial statements. This liability is set up for the current employees at the current rates of pay. The General Fund is primarily responsible for the repayment of the governmental portion of compensated absences.
F. 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 voter 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 occurs.
The State Legislature has determined the method of distributing the one percent tax levy among the various taxing jurisdictions.
Property 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 on the next page:
USecuredU UUnsecured
Valuation/Lien Date(s) January 1 January 1

June 30, 2025
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) G. Capital Assets
All capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available. Contributed capital assets are valued at their estimated fair value on the date contributed. Any donated capital assets or donated works of art and similar items are valued at their acquisition value rather than fair value. Any capital assets received in a service concession arrangement are valued at their acquisition value. The City’s policy is to capitalize all capital assets with costs exceeding the minimum thresholds at $5,000, except for infrastructure at $25,000 and with useful lives exceeding one year.
With the implementation of GASB Statement No. 34, the City was not required to record infrastructure assets existing or acquired prior to July 1, 2001. The City elected not to record such infrastructure assets. The City may elect to record such infrastructure assets in the future.
The purpose of depreciation is to spread the cost of capital assets equitably among all users over the life of these assets. The amount charged to depreciation expense each fiscal year represents that fiscal year’s pro rata share of the cost of capital assets. GASB Statement No. 34 requires that all capital assets with limited useful lives be depreciated over their estimated useful lives.
Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method which means the cost of the asset is divided by its expected useful life in years and the result is charged to expense each fiscal year until the asset is fully depreciated. The City has assigned the useful lives listed below to capital assets.
Structures and Improvements 50 years
Equipment 5-25 years
Infrastructure 15-50 years
H. 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 represent a consumption of net assets that applies to future periods. The City has one item which qualifies for reporting in this category, refer to Note 7 for a detailed listing of the deferred outflows of resources the City has recognized.
In addition to liabilities, the Statement of Net Position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. A deferred inflow of resources represent an acquisition of net assets that applies to future periods. The City has two items which qualify for reporting in this category; refer to Note 7 and Note 15 for a detailed listing of the deferred inflows of resources the City has recognized.

Notes to Basic Financial Statements
June 30, 2025
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) I. Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenditures, or expenses as appropriate. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
J. Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the City considers all highly liquid investment instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
K. Fund Balances
Fund balances of the governmental funds are classified as follows:
Nonspendable Fund Balance – represents amounts that cannot be spent because they are either not in spendable form (such as inventory or prepaid insurance) or legally required to remain intact (such as notes receivable or principal of a permanent fund).
Restricted Fund Balance – represents amounts that are constrained by external parties, constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
Committed Fund Balance – represents amounts that can only be used for a specific purpose because of a formal action by the City’s governing board. Committed amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the governing board removes those constraints by taking the same type of formal action. 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.
Assigned Fund Balance – represents amounts which 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 conveys that the intended use of those amounts is for a specific purpose that is narrower than the general purpose of the City.
49 CITY OF GROVER BEACH
Notes to Basic Financial Statements
June 30, 2025
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) K. Fund Balances (Continued)
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.
When an expenditure is incurred for a purpose for which both restricted and unrestricted fund balance is available, the City considers restricted funds to have been spent first. When an expenditure is incurred for which committed, assigned, or unassigned fund balances are available, the City considers amounts to have been spent first out of committed funds, then assigned funds, and finally unassigned funds.
L. 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 consist of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation, and reduced by the outstanding principal of related debt. Unspent bond proceeds should be reported as either restricted or unrestricted assets, as appropriate, and the related portion of the bonded debt should be reported in the same component of net position as the unspent proceeds, and therefore will not have any net effect on any classifications of net position.
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.
M. 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 California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) Miscellaneous and Safety Plans and additions to/deductions from 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. The General Fund is primarily responsible for the repayment of the governmental portion of the pension liability. 50 CITY OF GROVER BEACH

O. Leases
Lessee: The City is a lessee for a noncancellable lease of equipment. The City of Grover Beach recognizes a lease liability and an intangible right-to-use lease asset in the government-wide financial statements. The City recognizes lease liabilities with an initial individual value of $50,000 or more.
At the commencement of a lease, the City initially measures the lease liability at the present value of payments expected to be made during the lease term. Subsequently, the lease liability is reduced by the principal portion of the lease payments made. The lease asset is initially measured as the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, plus certain initial direct costs. Subsequently, the lease asset is amortized on a straight-line basis over its useful life.
GASB Accounting Pronouncements

Notes to Basic Financial Statements
June 30, 2025
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) O. Leases (continued)
Key estimates and judgements related to leases include how the City determines 1) the discount rate it uses to discount the expected lease payments to present value, 2) lease term, and 3) lease payments,
• The City uses the interest rate charged by the lessor as the discount rate. When the interest rate charged by the lessor is not provided, the City generally uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases.
• The lease term includes the noncancellable period of the lease. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are composed of fixed payments and purchase option price that the City is reasonably certain to exercise.
The City monitors changes in circumstances that would require a remeasurement of its lease and will remeasure the lease asset and liability if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the lease liability.
Lease assets are reported with the other capital assets and lease liabilities are reported with longterm debt on the statement of net position.
P. Subscription-Based Assets and Liabilities
The City accounts for Subscription-Based Information Technology Arrangements (“SBITAs”) in accordance with GASB Statement No. 96, Subscription-Based Information Technology Arrangements. This statement provides guidance on accounting and financial reporting for SBITAs for government end users. SBITAs are defined as a contract that conveys control of the right to use another party’s information technology (IT) software, alone or in combination with tangible capital assets, as specified in the contract for a period of time in an exchange or exchange-like transaction.
A government is required to recognize a right-to-use subscription asset – an intangible asset – and a corresponding subscription liability. The subscription liability is measured at the present value of the subscription payments expected to be made during the subscription term. Future payments are discounted using an incremental borrowing rate of 2.656%.
The City’s right of use SBITAs is included in capital assets on the Statement of Net Position. See Note 4. See Note 6 for information on the City’s SBITA activities and balances for the year ended June 30, 2025.
Q. Prepaid Items
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items in both the Government-wide and Fund financial statements. The cost of prepaid items is recorded as expenditures/expenses when consumed rather than purchased. 52 CITY OF GROVER BEACH

NOTE 2 - STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE, AND ACCOUNTABILITY
A. Budgetary Information
Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for governmental funds. The City’s budget ordinance requires that by June 1P
st
P each year, the City Manager must submit a preliminary budget that includes projected expenditures and the means of financing them, to the City Council for the fiscal year commencing the following July 1. As modified during public study sessions, the preliminary budget becomes the proposed budget. Following public hearings on the proposed budget, the final annual budget is adopted by the City Council in June of the next fiscal year. After adoption of the final budget, transfers of appropriations within a general fund department, or within other funds, can be made by the City Manager.
Budgeted expenditures may be reallocated within a fund by the City Manager, and within a department program by the department director, but any inter-fund transfers or reallocation must be approved by resolution of the City Council. Numerous properly authorized amendments are made during the fiscal year. Budgetary control is enhanced by integrating the budget into the general ledger accounts. Encumbrance accounting is employed (e.g., purchase orders) to avoid expenditures over budget. Encumbrances outstanding at fiscal year-end are automatically rebudgeted in the following fiscal year.
The City is not required to adopt an annual budget for the Street Improvement Debt Service Fund as part of its budgetary process. Historically, the budget comparison for the Debt Service Fund has not been presented in the financial statements. Accordingly, the City does not include a budgetto-actual comparison for the Street Improvement Debt Service Fund in accordance with the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) standards.
This is consistent with the City's practice and reflects the City's unique financial structure and operational requirements.

Fair Value Measurements
The City categorizes its fair value investments within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. Investment securities classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using prices quoted in active markets for those securities. Investment securities classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using matrix pricing or market corroborated pricing. Matrix pricing is used to value securities based on the securities’ relationship to benchmark quoted prices. Investment securities classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using significant unobservable inputs.
At June 30, 2025, the City had investments in the San Luis Obispo County Investment Pool which are measured under Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The City’s investments in US Agency securities and US Corporate Note Obligations are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and are valued using a matrix pricing technique. Matrix pricing is used to value securities based on the securities’ relationship to benchmark quoted prices. The City’s remaining investments are held in money market funds and the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), which is not subject to the fair value hierarchy.

Disclosures Relating to 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 flow and liquidity needed for operations.
Information about the sensitivity of the fair values of the City’s investments (including investments held by bond trustees) to market interest rate fluctuations is provided by the following table that shows the distribution of the City’s investments by maturity:
Disclosures Relating to Credit Risk
Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. Presented on the following page is the minimum rating required by (where applicable) the California Government Code, the City’s investment policy, or debt agreements, and the actual rating as of fiscal year end for each investment type.

Concentration of Credit Risk
The investment policy of the City contains no limitations on the amount that can be invested in any one issuer beyond that stipulated by the California Government Code. There are no investments in any one issuer that represent 5% or more of total City’s investments.
UCustodial Credit Risk
Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution, a government will not be able to recover its deposits or will not be able to recover collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. The 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 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.
None of the City’s deposits with financial institutions in excess of the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation’s limits were held in uncollateralized accounts.
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 with mutual funds or government investment pools (such as LAIF or the San Luis Obispo County Investment Pool).
U
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. 58 CITY OF GROVER BEACH

A. General Information about the Pension Plans (Continued) Contributions
Section 20814(c) of the California Public Employees’ Retirement Law requires that the employer contribution rates for all public employers be determined on an annual basis by the actuary and shall be effective on the July 1 following notice of a change in the rate. Funding contributions for the Plans are determined annually on an actuarial basis as of June 30 by CalPERS. 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 City is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees.
For the year ended June 30, 2025, the contributions recognized as part of pension expense for each Plan were as follows:
On June 30, 2025, the City reported net pension liabilities for its proportionate shares of the net position liability of each Plan as follows:

Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 6.90 percent. 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 investment was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.
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 best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class.
In determining the long-term expected rate of return, CalPERS considered both short-term and long-term market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund cash flows. Using historical returns of all the funds’ asset classes, expected compound returns were calculated over the short-term (first 10 years) and the long-term (11 + years) using a building-block approach. Using the expected nominal returns for both short-term and long-term, the present value of benefits was calculated for each fund. The expected rate of return was set by calculating the single equivalent expected return that arrived at the same present value of benefits for cash flows as the one calculated using both short-term and long-term returns. The expected rate of return was then set equal to the single equivalent rate calculated above and adjusted to account for assumed administrative expenses.

NOTE 8 – LIABILITY, WORKERS’ COMPENSATION, AND PURCHASED INSURANCE A. UDescription of Self-Insurance Pool Pursuant to Joint Powers Agreement The City of Grover Beach is a member of the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority (Authority). The Authority is composed of 123 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. Primary USelf-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 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 risksharing pool.
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 $3 million 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 $3 million to $30 million for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool’s total incurred costs within the second layer. (4) Incurred costs from $30 million 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 have a sub-limit of $50 million per occurrence. The coverage structure includes retained risk that is pooled among members, reinsurance, and excess insurance. More detailed information about the various layers of coverage is available on the following website:
https://cjpia.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. 77 CITY OF GROVER BEACH

June 30, 2025
NOTE 8 – LIABILITY, WORKERS’ COMPENSATION, AND PURCHASED INSURANCE (Continued) 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 $1 million 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 $1 million to $2 million for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool’s total incurred costs within the second layer. (4) Incurred costs from $2 million to statutory limits are distributed based on the outcome of cost allocation within the first and second loss layers.
For FY 2024-25 the Authority’s pooled retention is $2 million per occurrence, with reinsurance to statutory limits under California Workers’ Compensation Law. Employer’s Liability losses are pooled among members to $2 million. Coverage from $2 million to $5 million is purchased through reinsurance policies, and Employer’s Liability losses from $5 million to $10 million are pooled among members.
C. UPurchased Insurance
Property Insurance
The City of Grover Beach participates in the all-risk property protection program of the Authority. This insurance protection is underwritten by several insurance companies. City of Grover Beach property is currently insured according to a schedule of covered property submitted by the City of Grover Beach to the Authority. City of Grover Beach property currently has all-risk property insurance protection in the amount of $50 million. There is a $10,000 deductible per occurrence except for non-emergency vehicle insurance which has a $2,500 deductible.
D. UAdequacy of Protection
During the past three fiscal years, none of the above programs of protection experienced settlements or judgments that exceeded pooled or insured coverage. There were also no significant reductions in pooled or insured liability coverage in FY 2024-25.
NOTE 9 – CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS
The City is involved in various litigations. In the opinion of management and legal counsel, the disposition of all litigations pending will not have a material effect on the City’s financial statements.
The City has received state and federal funds for specific purposes that are subject to review and audit by the grantor agencies. Although such audits could generate expenditure disallowances under terms of the grants, it is believed that any required reimbursements will not be material. The City had construction contracts for $6.9 million as of June 30, 2025. 78 CITY OF GROVER BEACH

Budgetary Information
Through the budget, the City Council sets the direction of the City, allocates its resources and establishes its priorities. The Annual Budget assures the efficient and effective use of the City’s economic resources, as well as establishing that the highest priority objectives are accomplished.
The Annual budget serves the fiscal period July 1 to June 30 and is a vehicle that accurately and openly communicates these priorities to the community, businesses, vendors, employees and other public agencies. Additionally, it establishes the foundation of effective financial planning.
The City prepares a two-year budget. The City Council adopts governmental fund budgets consistent with generally accepted accounting principles as legally required.
The City Council generally reauthorizes appropriations for continuing projects and activities. The City Council has the legal authority to amend the budget of any fund, at any time during the fiscal year. The budgetary legal level of control (the level on which expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations) is generally at the fund level. Budgeted expenditures may be reallocated within a fund by the City Manager, and within a department program by the department director, but any inter-fund transfers or reallocation must be approved by resolution of the City Council.
The City is not required to adopt an annual budget for the Street Improvement Debt Service Fund as part of its budgetary process. Historically, the budget comparison for the Debt Service Fund has not been presented in the financial statements. Accordingly, the City does not include a budget-to-actual comparison for the Street Improvement Debt Service Fund in accordance with the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) standards.
This is consistent with the City's practice and reflects the City's unique financial structure and operational requirements.

Notes:
B) In 1978 the voters of the State of California passed Proposition 13 which limited taxes to a total maximum rate of 1%, based upon the assessed value of the property being taxed.
Each year, the assessed value of property may be increased by an "inflation factor" (limited to a maximum of 2%).
With few exceptions, property is only reassessed as a result of new construction activity or at the time it is sold to a new owner. At that point, the property is reassessed based upon the added value of the construction or at the purchase price (market value) or economic value of the property sold. The assessed valuation data shown above represents the only data currently available with respect to the actual market value of taxable property and is subject to the limitations described above.

Notes:
This 1% is shared by all taxing agencies for which the subject property resides within. In addition to the 1% fixed amount, property owners are charged taxes as a percentage of assessed property values for the payment of any voter approved bonds.
(2) Overlapping rates are those of local and county governments that apply to property owners within the City.
Not all overlapping rates apply to all property owners. (3) City's Share of 1% Levy is based on the City's share of the general fund tax rate area with the largest net taxable value within the City. The ERAF portion of the City's Levy has been subtracted where known. and is subject to the limitations described above.
(4) Redevelopment Rate is based on the largest RDA tax rate area and only includes rate(s) from indebtedness adopted prior to 1989 per California State statute. RDA direct and overlapping rates are applied only to the incremental property values. The approval of ABX1 26 eliminated Redevelopment from the State of California for the fiscal year 2012-13 and years therafter.
(5) Total Direct Rate is the weighted average of all individual direct rates applied by the City/Agency preparing the statistical section information and excludes revenues derived from aircraft. Beginning in FY 2013-14 the Total Direct Rate no longer includes revenue generated from the former redevelopment tax rate areas.
Challenges to recognized enforceable obligations are assumed to have been resolved during FY 2012-13. For the purpose of this report, residual revenue is assumed to be distributed to the City/Agency in the same proportions as general fund revenue.
