EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The following chart compares the FY 2021-22 Budget and December 2021 year-to-date (YTD) revenue and expenditure totals, with the difference being budgeted reserves and transfers.
Status of Overall City Fiscal Year 2021-22 Budget
The percentage comparisons for expenditures are based on comparing the December 2021 YTD to the 20 21-22 Amended Budget. The Amended Budget is used to accurately reflect any changes to the adopted budget that occur from City Council approving budget amendments throughout the fiscal year.
Revenue: Through December 2021, YTD revenue is $ 51.8 million, which is approximately 48% more than the December 2020 YTD revenue of $ 35.0 million. This increase over the previous year is mainly attributed to the $11.7 million received revenue for the American Rescue Plan Act (Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds) Grant.
However, without the American Rescue Plan Act related funding, the December 2021 YTD revenue would be 15% more than December 2020, which is mainly due to increased development related revenue. Overall, revenue is 36% collected through December 2021 and additional detail is provided further within the report.
Expenditures: At 26% of the amended budget utilized, the FY 20 21-22 Budget is proceeding as planned. Overall , the December 2021 YTD expenditures of $33.3 million are $6.3 million or 16% less than the December 2020 YTD of $39.6 million. This decrease from the FY 2020 -21 Mid-Year Report is related to the Water District’s early retirement of the $5.5 million 1998A Variable Rate Lease Revenue Bonds . It should be noted that there are eight (8) budget amendments totaling $339,055 included in this report.
Reserves: The General Fund and Water District (operating and capital) exceed the City Council’s policy of 10% cash reserves. Because the City’s audited financial statements have not yet been completed, t he following reserve calculations are based on estimates of the unaudited June 30, 20 21 ending cash balances. These estimates will be updated with actual numbers from the June 30, 2021 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the upcoming FY 2022-23 Proposed Budget. In addition, the eight (8) Mid-Year Budget Amendments, totaling $339,055, are reflected below where appropriate:

FISCAL YEAR 2021-22 DECEMBER 31, 2021 YEAR-TO-DATE REVENUE REVIEW (Continued)
General Fund Revenue Comments:
General Fund Revenue – Through December 2021, YTD revenue is $ 12,731,763 which is $ 274,152 or 2% less than December 20 20 YTD revenue of $13,005,915 . This de crease in YTD revenue received is related to the combined $2.1 million CARES Act and Coronavirus Funds received during the first six months of 2020-21, which is ‘one-time’ grant specific to that fiscal year. Evaluating the change in revenue , without the CARES/Coronavirus funds , results in a mid - year FY 2021-22 revenue increase of $1,820,381 or 17% more than the prior fiscal year. Contributing to the increase is mainly due to a combination of development related revenue , sales and use tax , and property transfer tax . The City is recommending to increase the FY 2021 -22 General Fund revenue by $250,572 to include the increase in development related revenue received year-to-date.
Sales and Use Tax – The collections received through December 2021 of $4.5 million is $0.7 million or 19% more than the December 2020 YTD of $3.8 million. This increase is largely due to the December 2021 quarterly being more than the December 2020 quarterly, due to a growing economy and higher fuel prices. Due to timing of receiving revenue, the State has remitted tax payments through October 2021. This revenue source will continue to be monitored.
Vehicle License Fee (VLF) – This revenue is based on the City’s assessed valuation. As the assessed valuation changes from the prior year, this revenue ch anges by the same percentage. There is no revenue reported through December 2021, as the first installment of the VLF is expected to be received in January and May 2022.
Franchise Fees – Franchise fees for Cable TV, Advance Disposal, Southwest Gas, Southern California Edison, and Water for December 2021 YTD total $745,759, which is $24,877 or a 3% increase over December 2020 $720,882 YTD.
Please note that the majority of franchise fees are received in the second half of the fiscal year.
Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) – Through December 2021, YTD revenue is $ 705,198, which is $ 75,829 more than the December 2020 YTD of $629,369. This 12% increase is due to increased hotel occupancy.

General Fund Revenue Comments (Continued):
Property Transfer Tax – This revenue reflects the change in property valuation upon change of ownership within the City. The December 2021 YTD total of $238,848, represents an increase of $111,856 from the December 2020 YTD of $126,992. This 88% increase is due to receiving five receipts compared to the four receipts received December 2020 YTD. When comparing the first four installments through December 2021 to the four received through December 2020, the FY 2021-22 is $59,419 more or 47%, representing an increase in home values.
Secured Property Tax – Through December 2021, YTD revenue is $517,553 , which is $ 28,134 more tha n the December 2020 YTD $489,419.
Business License – This revenue is paid by each business operating in the City. YTD December 20 21 collections of $324,841 is 34% more than the December 2020 YTD. There were 2,209 new business licenses issued during the first six months of FY 20 21-22, compared to the 968 issued December 2020 YTD . This increase is a result of the adopted increases to business license fees in December 2020 , that took effect March 2021 and a 128% rise in the combined number of “New” busine ss licenses and “Home Occupancy” licenses issued and renewed during the first half of the fiscal year as opposed to the previous year.
Commercial Cannabis Tax – All commercial cannabis businesses operating within the City pay a 4% tax on gross receipts from business operations. The December 2021 YTD receipts of $294,382 are 17% less than the December 2020 YTD of $353,296, which is due to the timing of receiving receipts. The City currently has twenty -one (21 ) businesses operating within the City compared to the twenty (20) through December 2020.
Community Facilities District 2005-1 – This special assessment district, (generally west of Maple Avenue and south of Main Street), was formed to refinance the bonds of CFD 91-3, and assesses the properties within the district to repay the bonds. Part of the annual assessment includes a pu blic safety portion to offset some of the costs that residential development places on the City’s public safety providers. The December 2021 YTD is $157,592, which is 3% more than December 2020 YTD of $153,000.
Leased Water Rights – The permanent water rights owned by the General Fund can be leased annually and the lease revenue is used to pay for the 2012 Bonds, which financed the purchase of the water rights. The leasing of water rights revenue is always collected at the end of the year and will be recorded in June.
Development Related Revenue – The FY 202 1-22 Budget anticipated issuing 300 new single- family residential building permits (SFR’s). Through December 2021, 78 residential permits have been issued, which is 26% of the budget. This is a 37% decrease compared to 125 permits issued through December 2020. Staff anticipates that an additional 222 residential building permits will be issued during the current fiscal year. T he year-to-date revenue is $2,245,758 or 33% more than the December 2020 YTD of $1,693,221. This increase is mainly due to building plan check fees and home occupant review fees . In addition, 13,361 total commercial square feet was added with new businesses that included a Raising Cane Restaurant, a gas station at the Wal -Mart Center, and Dollar General Store .
This is a 29% increase when compared to the December 2020 of 10,389 square feet which included the development of Quick Quack Car Wash, Wendy’s Restaurant, and smaller buildings. The chart below exhibits the overall increase from the prior fiscal year through December 31, 2021. Staff is recommending to revise the FY 2021 -22 revenue by an additional $250,572.

FISCAL YEAR 2021-22 DECEMBER 31, 2021 YEAR-TO-DATE REVENUE REVIEW (Continued)
Streets Related Funds Revenue Comments (Continued):
Local Transportation – The December 2021 YTD of $83,731 includes an apportionment from SBCTA and a portion of interest income received. As reported in the First Quarter Budget Review, the City received its annual apportionment of $82,465 from SBCTA, and VVTA is anticipating to end FY 2021 -22 with a surplus and in turn, share a portion with the City. It is anticipated that the remaining $788,800 will be received from VVTA at the end of the fiscal year. This revenue source will decrease in future years due to the importance placed and funding reserved for public transportation.
Gas Tax RMRA – This source of revenue is mainly State-funded and took effect in November 2017 during FY 2017 -18, along with some interest income. This revenue is used to repair and maintain roads, freeways, and bridges. SB 1, the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017, increased the gas tax by 12 cents and 20 cents for diesel. The vehicle registration fee also increased depending on the value of the vehicle. As of December 2021, revenue received from the State is $656,750, which reflects four installment payments . Comparing the December 2021 to December 202 0, the current fiscal year is 9% more, or $56,272.
AQMD (AB2766 Transit) – The revenue in this fund is interest earnings from retained cash.
Public Works -Street Maintenance – The estimated revenues are primarily interest earnings. This fund will occasionally receive miscellaneous reimbursements on an inconsistent basis, making comparisons to prior years meaningless. The revenue received YTD of $36,666, includes $36,238 proceeds from sale of equipment and reimbursement for the replacement of a dam aged hydrant, city property, and damaged equipment. The year -end revised amount has been increased by $36,238 to a total $38,397 to reflect the unanticipated revenue.
Development Impact Fee s for Streets and Storm Drain – Through December 2021 YTD, the combined revenue received of $4.2 million is showing an increase of $ 2.6 million or 157% more than the December 2020 YTD of $1.6 million. This increase is due to fees paid for new commercial development on the Westside of Interstate 15 and residential development. The budget assumes the completion of 186 single family residential (SFR) permits, 72 multi - family residential permits, and 1,145,737 square feet of commercial/industrial. While through December 202 1, 78 SFR permits, and permits for 13,361 square feet of commercial /industrial have been issued, DIF is not due to the City until just prior to receiving a final approval. In some cases, the timing of General Fund Building Permit revenue (page 10) to DIF for streets and storm drain revenue is a matter of months; while in other instances, the timing can span a fiscal year.
City Streets CIP – This fund tracks grant and developer funded projects such as the Ranchero Road Improvements (7 th
Avenue to Mariposa Road), E Avenue Street Improvements, the Traffic Signal at Main Street and Sultana Street/Timberlane Avenue, Ranchero Aqueduct crossing, and the Park and Ride facility. Through December 2021 YTD, $13,690 has been received, of which 96% is a portion of grant reimbursement for the Park and Ride facility , and an additional $102,000 was received in January 2022 . The bulk of the budgeted revenue is for the reimbursement of Ranchero Road with construction slated to start in December 2021 but has been delayed until after February 2022, and reimbursement will start to be received 60 to 90 days after the commencement date. Staff will continue to monitor this revenue throughout the second half of the fiscal year.

Water District Revenue Comments:
Overall Water District Revenue – Revenue through December 2021, is $17,711,664, which is $1,178,957 or 7% more than December 2020 YTD of $16,532,707. The increase can be attributed to a combination of overall Water Sales, Capital Facilities Surcharge, and Sewer Billing. In January 2022, the District received notification that $795,807 of the Water Arreages Grant would be received; more detail is available on the next page. Staff is recommending to revise the FY 2021-22 Budget to $32.4 million, to include the Water Arreages Grant and increase in sewer connection fees.
Water Sales – Through December 2021, water sales revenue amounts to $13.0 million, which is $1.1 million, or 9% higher than the December 2020 YTD of $11.9 million . Comprised of both consumption based charges and a bi -monthly charge, the increased revenue is reflective of the ongoing effects from the implementation of the new water rates structure. However, the impact of the pandemic has affected actual collections, which are being monitored. The State’s Water Arrearages Grant (described on the fo llowing page) will help to mitigate a significant amount of these delinquencies. Remaining delinquencies will be pursued.
Property Taxes – Property tax revenue is normally received from November 2021 through July 20 22. Through December 2021, the YTD of $302,137 is $29,753 or 11% more than the December 2020 YTD of $272,384.
All Other Water Operating Reven ue – Through December 2021, $557,314 or 63% has been received, which is 27 % less than December 2020 YTD of $ 763,813. This decrease in revenue received during the second quarter of FY 2021-22 is related to unanticipated proceeds from two land sales and the County of San Bernardino Coronavirus Relief funds that were paid for and received in the second quarter of FY 2020-21.

Water District Revenue Comments (Continued):
Water Arreages Grant – During August 2021, the California Water Boards (State Water Resource Control Board and nine regional boards) created the ‘California Water and Wastewater Arrearage Payment Program’ that allows the Water District to recoup missing utility payments from Mar ch 4, 2020 through June 15, 2021. This Program will allow the District to collect on past -due accounts and bring the customer current to June 15, 2021. There are 1,942 accounts (1,891 residential and 51 commercial) with balances during this period and th is program is intended only for water payments and cannot include penalty and interest. It is anticipated that this program will be extended to sewer accounts sometime during Spring 2022. The District applied for the program in November 2021, and on January 10, 2022 received approval notification that the District would receive the full award amount of $795,807.
Capital Facilities Surcharge – Revenue through December 2021 YTD is $ 854,013, which is $ 126,290 or 17% more than December 2020 YTD of $727,723. The increase in revenue received during the second quarter of 2021 is related to the large commercial project on the west side of Interstate 15 and residential development.
Reclaimed Water – In FY 2021-22, the District began budgeting for the use of reclaimed (recycled) water to be used at the Golf Course. Once the system is fully operational, revenue will be reflected in this account. The District anticipates that in the future other City facilities, the Park District, and School District, will become recycled water customers.
Sewer Billing revenue through December 2021 is $ 2,502,467, which is $ 223,694 or 10% more than the revenue received in the Second Quarter of FY 2020-21. This increase is associated with the 6% sewer rate increase, which took effect in December 2020, along with the addition of new sewer residential and commercial customers over the past year.
Sewer Connections revenue through December 2021 YTD is $ 323,506, which is $216,352 or 202% more than the $107,154 received through December 2020 YTD. The increase between the two periods is mainly due to increased development activity in areas served by Sewer.

The City Council Division has expended 35%, which is due to budgeted items that are typically expended later during the fiscal year, such as $ 50,000 for the Community Assistance Program, annual memberships, and community outreach programs and events. The City Attorney Division is higher than expected, with 76% expended. This is mainly due to the unanticipated increase in legal fees pertaining to litigation matters. Staff will continue to monitor the program and if needed will request an amendment during the FY 2021-22 Fourth Quarter Budget Review.
The City Manager Department expenditures are on track staying within the 202 1-22 Budget at 52% expended. Overall, both the City Manager and the Information Technology Divisions are proceeding as expected.

TOTAL EXPENDITURES BY DEPARTMENT AND PROGRAMS (Continued)
The Management Services Department is currently at 58% expended. The Finance Division is 52 % expended and proceeding as planned. Th e Human Resources Division is 77 % expensed due to the lump sum payment to CalPERS for the unfunded accrued liability and annual insurance premiums that were paid at the beginning of the fiscal year.
Non-Departmental is 25% expended, with the majority of replacement water obligation occurring later in the fiscal year.
As a whole, the Economic Development Department is 24% expended through the Second Quarter. T his department consists of four (4) Divisions, Economic Development, Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), the CDBG -CV Cares Act, and Hesperia Housing Authority (HHA).
The Economic Development Department performs the economic development functions for the City and is proceeding as expected, with 53% expensed through December 2021.
Fund 251 Community Development Block Grant has expended 20 % of the amended budget. This fund administers the City’s CDBG program and related activities which includes $1,830,152 in budgeted funds for t hree street improvement projects. Through the second quarter, $340,911 has been expended on these Capital Improvement Projects (CIP), and it is anticipated that the majority of expenditures will occur during the third and fourth quarters. Also included is th e Microenterprise Assistance Program (MAP), which provides financial assistance, in the form of a grant, to businesses owned by low - or moderate -income individuals with five (5) or fewer employees, including the owner(s) who have recently been economically impacted by the pandemic.
The CDBG -CV Cares Act Fund 258 accounts for CDBG grant funding allocated to help mitigate the impact o f the COVID-19 Pandemic for low - and moderate-income residents through the following programs: 1) Emergency Business Assistance Program and 2) Emergency Housing and Utility Assistance Program; which were designed to assist the Hesperia residents and businesses that have been impacted by the pandemic. Applications were solicited for CDBG - CV purposes; however the number of respon ses were low. The lack of interest from applicants was due in part, to the availability of other programs that potentially offered greater resource to those impacted by the COVID -19 pandemic, thereby rendering the program somewhat ineffective for Hesperia . T herefore, the funds from HUD were declined , and the budget was revised to $0 during the First Quarter Budget review.
The Hesperia Housing Authority (HHA) funds oversee the affordable housing activities within the City. Through the end of December, the HHA funds are 16% expended, with the majority of the budgeted expenditures for affordable housing monitoring and annual financial audit reporting anticipated to occur later in the fiscal year.

A large portion of this classication is the budgeting of the principal and interest payments for the 2012 Water Rights Acquisition and 2013 Refunding Lease Revenue Bonds. Principal payments occur in October of each fiscal year, explaining the 7 1% expended percentage through December 2021. During the first quarter budget review, the development impact fees budget for funds 303 and 312 were amended by $30,219 for the Off -Highway Motor Vehicle (OHV) Grant match ($6,282) and the purchase of seven Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) fixed cameras and equipment ($23,937).
Overall, the Water Operating and Capital funds are 32% expended through December 31, 2021. The following narrative details the progression of each program.
• The primary resp onsibility of Source of Supply is to secure make- up water lease rights to remedy overproduction.

The FY 2021-22 Mid-Year Budget Re view includes eight (8) budget amendments totaling $339,055. The following listing categorizes the proposed budget amendments, with the following pages providing detail on each request:
PROPOSED BUDGET AMENDMENTS – NARRATIVE
Development Services
Operating Repairs & Vehicle Retrofit – Building Maintenance $16,000 (100-29-310-3110) – Unanticipated The City has two ice machines that are inoperable and due to the age are unable to be repaired, therefore an amendment to purchase new machines is requested. In addition, during Fiscal Year (FY) 2020 -21, the servic e vehicle that was being used for facility maintenance was in a collision and deemed a total loss. Staff decided that the warehouse van would be more effective for facility maintenance but would need to be retrofitted. In order to perform the retrofit, s taff is requesting an amendment for the purchase of supplies and materials. A budget amendment of $16,000 is being requested for the unanticipated purchases and repairs.
City Hall Tenant Improvements – Building Maintenance $67,054 (100-29-310-3110) – Previous Staff Report On August 17, 2021 , the City Council authoriz ed the construction of additional office space for the current tenant within the City Hall expansion area. As identifi ed in the staff report, a budget amendment would be presented with the Mid-Year report.
Vactor Truck Engine Replacement – Public Works Street Maintenance $56,000 (263-29-310-3150) – Previous Staff Report
The current vactor truck that is utilized to perform proactive and reactive maintenance to the storm drain system became inoperable. After inspection, it was determined that the engine is damaged and a new engine is required.
As identified in the February 1, 2022 staff report, a budget amendment would be presented with the Mid -Year report.
Plan Review and Inspection Services – Engineering $30,000 (100-29-310-3100 & 700 -29-400-4040) – Previous Staff Report
In order to keep pace with development in the City, staff has elected to seek engineering contract plan review and inspection services.

PROPOSED BUDGET AMENDMENTS – Narrative (Continued)
Water District
Plant 19 Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) Unit & Plant 14A Electric Motor – Production $57,000 (700-29-400-4020) – Unanticipated
The HVAC unit ensures that the electrical equipment maintains an optimal temperature to prevent overheating during operation. Unfortunately, the current HVAC unit at Plant 19 is in need of substantial repair, and based on the age, a new unit is recommende d. Recently, the electric motor failed leaving Plant 14A inoperable. The repair is necessary in order for the well to continue to pump and distribute water to residents throughout the City. During their evaluation of the needed repairs , staff realized t hat the protective coating around the electrical wiring is cracking causing a potential safety hazard. Replacing the electrical wiring is optimal to ensure all components are functioning properly. Therefore, an amendment of $56,000 is requested to purchase a new HVAC unit ($15,000) at Plant 19 and to repair the motor and electrical wiring at Plant 14A ($42,000).
State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) Annual Connection Fees – Production $8,500 (700-29-400- 4020) – Unanticipated
SWRCB establishes a fee schedule to support the Drinking Water Program based on the number of water service connections. On September 22, 2021, the State Water Board adopted emergency regulations that adjusted water fees by approximately 26.6%. This adju sted fee caused an $8,500 or 12% increase over the FY 2021-22 Budget amount of $70,000. An amendment for the increase is being requested.
Backhoe Purchase – Pipeline $34,501 (700-29-400-4035) – Previous Staff Report The current backhoe has been in service since 2006 , has required numerous repairs to remain in service, and recently broke down. After receiving the cost estimate to repair, staff has decided to sell the backhoe in its current condition and to purchase a new one. As identified in the s taff report, the purchase amount for a new backhoe is $129,301, but staff has identified $94,800 in program savings, therefore only requesting the difference of $34,501 for the purchase.
Sewer Feasibility Study – Engineering $70,000 (710-29-420-4240) – Unanticipated A Sewer Feasibility Study is needed due to the increase in new residential and commercial/industrial development to evaluate possible sewer conveyance systems and the resulting annual cost per resident once the system is constructed. The alternate conveyance systems that w ill be evaluated are a low pressure system and a conventional gravity sewer/pump station system. Therefore, a budget amendment is being requested to perform the study.
