SUMMARY
This report presents the mid-year review of the FY 2023 Adopted Budget, and an update to the Five-Year General Fund Financial Model (model) presenting proposed changes and projected year-end results based on current trends and data. While staff considers the entire City budget in its mid-year review, this report focuses primarily on the General Fund.

Of this amount, $4.55 million is related to previously authorized and approved appropriations, and proposed FY 2023 mid-year expenditure adjustments totaling a net increase of $2.49 million. The proposed FY 2023 mid-year expenditures are all one-time in nature. Table 1 and Table 2 below detail the key changes in General Fund expenditures related to previous Council-authorized and approved appropriations, and proposed new FY 2023 mid-year requests:

This report provides an overall update to the City’s Five-Year General Fund outlook.
BACKGROUND
On June 7, 20221, Council adopted the FY 2023 Operating Budget, which projected a surplus by fiscal year-end, building the General Fund Reserves by $4.5 million. Since the time of the FY
1 Hayward City Council Meeting on June 7, 2022 - https://hayward.legistar.com
2023 Operating Budget adoption, the City’s fiscal position has changed as it continues to address service needs and emerging needs of the community. Considering recently updated revenue projections, additional Council-approved appropriations, and proposed new mid- year requests, the proposed FY 2023 Revised Budget will result in a balanced budget without the projected use of General Fund Reserves. Should the FY 2023 mid-year review be approved as proposed, the FY 2023 Revised Budget is projected to build the General Fund Reserves by $11,000.
This report includes an update to the Five-Year General Fund Financial Model as part of the FY 2023 mid-year review, reflecting the proposed changes in revenue projections and expenditure adjustments.
DISCUSSION
GENERAL FUND REVENUES
FY 2023 General Fund revenues are projected to be $2.6 million higher than originally projected. This is primarily attributed to projected increases in Property Tax, and Utility Users Tax (UUT) revenues.
The following analysis highlights key revenue variances as it pertains to FY 2023 mid-year projections and the impact on future year projections as outlined in the model.
Property Tax (increase of $1.6 million) – The FY 2023 Adopted Budget projected an increase of 3% year-over-year in Property Tax revenues as the economic recovery led to increased home values. Property Tax projections have been updated to reflect slightly more growth than previously projected in tax revenue.
Utility User Tax (increase of $1.0 million) – The FY 2023 Adopted Budget projected UUT at $18.0 million. Based on review and analysis of year-to-date revenue collected, the mid-year budget review forecasts an increase of approximately $1.0 million in projected revenue through the end of the fiscal year.
GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES
FY 2023 General Fund total adjustments include FY 2022 carryforwards, previous Council- authorized and approved appropriations and mid-year requests. FY 2023 General Fund expenditures, including proposed mid-year requests and previous Council-authorized and approved appropriations are projected to be $7.04 million higher than anticipated at the time the City adopted its budget. Of this amount, $4.55 million is related to previously authorized and approved appropriations, which includes $3.95 million related to employee labor contracts, and $593,893 related to other previously authorized and approved appropriations, such as grants and contract agreements. Proposed FY 2023 new mid-year expenditure requests total an increase of $2.49 million.
FY 2022 budget carryforwards total $3.22 million and were approved with the FY 2022 Operating Budget. The following analysis highlights key expenditure variances as it pertains to FY 2023 mid-year projections and the fiscal impacts on future year projections, as illustrated in the model.
Operating Expenses
A number of adjustments are needed at mid-year to fund necessary and/or unanticipated expenditures, and to appropriate prior-year carryforward requests into FY 2023.
Carryforward Requests (increase of $3.22 million):
A carryforward is unspent budget that is linked to a commitment such as a contract, requisition, or purchase order. The carryforward of commitment to a new fiscal year carries with it the unspent budget associated with the balance of the commitment. Carryforwards represent budget amounts that were previously authorized and approved by Council during the prior fiscal year.
Previous Council Approved Appropriations - FY 2023 (increase of $4.55 million):
City Council previously authorized and approved appropriations totaling $4.55 million.
Previously authorized and approved appropriations are as follows:
Council approval of employee contract terms – Unrepresented employees, HPOA, and IAFF Local 1909 ($3.95 million)
Appropriation of STEP grant funding ($210,000)
Behavioral Health Justice Intervention Services Project Grant Appropriations ($74,501)
Appropriate funds for the Golden Oaks II Tract 8058 Access and Utilities Project ($290,672)
CAL OES Grant ($2,970)
Appropriation of Hayward Literacy Council Grant ($15,750)
Proposed FY 2023 Mid-Year Requests – New (net increase of $2.49 million):
2022 General Election Cost (increase of $400,000): Allocation of $400,000 is the average estimated amount based on the Countywide Consolidated General Election cost of $4 to $6 per voter according to the Alameda County Registrar of Voter’s (ROV) published cost.
Mayor and City Council (increase of $10,000): Costs associated with furniture expenses and transition of newly appointed City Council members. Increase in Inspection and Plan Check Services (increase of $500,000): Appropriate previously collected fees/revenue for development projects for Inspection and Plan Check for Services.
Security Services (increase of $35,000): Additional funding to cover costs associated with expanding security hours at City libraries.
Contract Services (increase of $57,000) – Additional contract services are necessary in the City Manager’s Office.
o Increase of $30,000 to conduct a one-time language assessment for the City of Hayward (Strategic Roadmap Project R12); and
o Increase of $27,000 in contract services for a consultant to conduct 360 evaluations for each Council Appointed Officer.
Transfer-Out (increase of $1,488,509)
o Transfer-Out from the General Fund to the Information Technology Capital Fund in the amount of $125,029 is requested to cover costs associated with the implementation of EnerGov online permitting. The General Fund transfer is supported by Technology Fee revenues collected in FY 2023; and o Transfer-Out from the General Fund to the General Liability Insurance Fund in the amount of $629,476, which is the General Fund allocated portion of the increased amount in the City’s insurance premium costs; and o Transfer-Out from the General Fund to the Facilities Management Fund of $223,961 to support increased costs in new security service contract, enhance security measures, and expanded hours at the Watkins Street garage, and elevator repairs and window replacement at the Library; and o Transfer-Out from the General Fund to the Facilities Capital Fund in the amount of $46,506 to cover costs associated with the reconstruction of Fire Administration Office at City Hall; and
o Transfer-Out from the General Fund to the Fleet Management fund of $463,537 to account for the increase in fuel costs, and deferred repair and maintenance costs for City fleet ($100,000).
The amounts shown below in Table 4 demonstrate the General Fund impact of the changes being proposed as part of the City’s FY 2023 Mid-Year Budget Review from the time that Council adopted the City’s Operating Budget in June of 2022. In total, the changes presented for consideration will build the General Fund Reserves by $11,000.

FIVE-YEAR GENERAL FUND MODEL UPDATE
The Five-Year Model (model) has been updated to include projected changes in revenue and expenses impacting the City’s projected year-end fiscal position for FY 2023. The FY 2023 Adopted Budget assumed a surplus, building the General Fund Reserves by $4.5 million by the end of the fiscal year, with a projected ending balance of $43.9 million. Based on the FY 2023 Adopted Budget, the model projected that General Fund Reserves would represent 22.5% of the City’s budgeted General Fund expenditures, which is above the City’s current General Fund Reserve policy, which states that General Fund Reserves should equal 20% of budgeted General Fund expenditures.
As part of the mid-year review process, the model has been updated to include current revenue projections, mid-year expenditure requests, and previous Council-approved appropriations as discussed in this report. The updated model projects a minimal surplus of $11,000 by the end of the fiscal year, compared to the projected surplus at the time of adoption, which projected a $4.5 million surplus. The reduction in projected surplus, can be attributed to the change in revenue projections, specifically Property Tax revenue and UUT revenue, combined with increases in General Fund expenditures. Based on these changes, General Fund Reserve balance is projected to be 20.7% of total expenses by the end of the fiscal year.
Table 5 provides an overview of the City’s Five-year forecast, with updated revenue projections and expenditures.

MEASURE C FUND
Measure C Operating
The Council, as well as the ballot language for Measure C, established a number of spending priorities for these funds. These priorities include a mix of capital projects and funding allocations toward operating services. While Measure C revenues are to primarily be used to fund capital projects, operating activities, such as police services, addressing illegal dumping, litter control, and graffiti abatement, also fulfill the promises of Measure C.
FY 2023 Measure C operating fund total adjustments include previously authorized and approved appropriations, and mid-year requests. Proposed FY 2023 Measure C expenditure- related requests total an increase of $113,609. The following details the additional request:
Previously approved appropriation for employee contract terms (increase of $55,610). Proposed Mid-Year Request: Transfer-out to the General Liability Insurance Fund for the Measure C allocated portion of the increased amount in the City’s insurance premium costs (increase of $16,999).
Proposed Mid-Year Request: Appropriate funds for the new South Resource Center for facility rent, utilities, and janitorial services (increase of $41,000).
Measure C Capital
While Measure C funds operating programs and related expenses, Measure C funds are primarily used to fund capital projects. FY 2023 Measure C capital total adjustments amount to $13.2 million in FY 2022 carryforwards.
Staff will provide an update to the Measure C 20-Year Financial Forecast as part of the Council report on March 7, 2023.

AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT (ARPA) STATE AND LOCAL FISCAL RECOVERY FUNDS
On March 11, 2021, the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) of 2021 was signed into law. A major component of ARPA was the State and Local Fiscal Recovery Fund (SLFRF), which included $65 billion in direct federal relief to cities to address the impacts of COVID-19 and aid in recovery. The City of Hayward was allocated approximately $38.3 million in fiscal recovery funding, to be disbursed in two tranches. The first tranche of 50% of the City’s allocation was disbursed in late May 2021, with the second half was disbursed in May of 2022.
On July 13, 2021, Council approved a plan for use of the City’s ARPA $38.3 million. To date, the City has received the full $38.3 million in ARPA funding. Council appropriated $18.9 million in FY 2022, and $16.4 million FY 2023. The use of ARPA funds is governed by the SLFRF Interim Final Rule issued by the US Treasury Department in May 2021. City Staff developed the ARPA expenditure plan based on community needs, the City’s operational response, and Council feedback. The expenditure plan was also presented to the Council Infrastructure Committee, the Homeless-Housing Task Force, the Council Economic Development Committee, and the Community Services Commission for further refinement prior to Council approval in July 2021.
The ARPA expenditure plan is comprised of 37 projects across four major expenditure categories: support for public health expenditures and investments in pandemic operational needs; addressing negative impacts cause by the public health emergency; replacement of lost public sector revenue; and investment in water, sewer, and broadband infrastructure.
Projects commenced in FY 2022 and will continue through FY 2024. Table 7 provides an overview of total expenditures in FY 2022, and revised appropriations in FY 2023, and anticipated appropriations for FY 2024.

STRATEGIC ROADMAP
