th QUARTER ENDING JUNE 30, 2023

OVERVIEW
This financial report summarized the city’s financial position for the quarter ending June 30, 2023, for the General Fund, Water Funds, and Special Revenue Funds. The purpose of this report is to provide City Council, City management, and the Lomita community an update on the city’s fiscal status based on the most recent financial information available.

General Fund Summary
Through the fourth quarter, the General Fund is tracking as expected. The table presented in this report include budgetto-actual comparisons between the current fiscal year and the previous fiscal year to show results of the fourth quarter of each year compared to the adjusted budget as it stood on June 30th of each year. A year-over-year comparison is also presented to show results of the twelve months of the current fiscal year as compared to the previous year. Major difference in budget-to-actual and year-over-year comparisons are explained in this report.

The city’s General Fund for the four quarters of Fiscal Year 2022-2023, which ended June 30, 2023, are tracking as expected. General Fund revenues are up $1.57 million compared to the same period last year; this increase is due mainly to licenses and permits, fines and forfeitures, interest, and a Prop A Exchange. Fiscal year to date expenditures, excluding transfers to other funds, are at $11.45 million, compared to $10.89 million last year. Details of revenue and expenditure changes from the prior year are explained later in this report.

$15.8 million which is approximately $1.57 million, or 11% more than the same period last fiscal year. Overall, total revenues are at 104% of budget through the fourth quarter of the current fiscal year, which is slightly less than the same period last fiscal year, 115% of budget. As of August, we are still waiting for a few payments from the State and L.A. County, which will bring us on par with the prior fiscal year.

Six revenue sources account for over 80% of the General Fund revenue budget. Those accounts, in order of greatest to smallest, are Sales and Use Tax, Vehicle License Fee, Property Taxes, Business License Taxes, Franchise Taxes, and Building and Safety Fee. As of the end of the fourth quarter, these revenues are tracking closely to last fiscal year’s percentages.
