MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The following discussion provides readers of the City of Milpitas (City) financ ial statements a narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City s for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. Please read this document in conjunction with the accompanying Transmittal Letter and Basic Financial Statements.
FISCAL YEAR 2024 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
During Fiscal Year 2024, City revenues continued recovering gradually since the onset of the COVID-19 Pandemic (Pandemic) over four years ago. The unemployment rate in the San José-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara metropolitan area rose to 4.2%, up slightly from 3.7% in Fiscal Year 2023. General Fund revenues increased compared to the previous year, particularly in property tax, sales tax, investment income, and intergovernmental revenues. These gains were largely driven by investment income and property tax related to the Educational Revenue Augmentation Funds (ERAF), which are subject to audit and litigation. Conversely, revenues from licenses, permits, and fines have continued to decline in Fiscal Year 2024 compared to Fiscal Year 2023.
The rise in property taxes can be attributed to ongoing increases in secu red and supplemental property tax, driven by higher property valuations. As tr avel has resumed following the Pandemic , hotel and motel tax revenues have shown signs of recovery, though they have not yet reached pre-Pandemic levels.
The economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic remains uncertain and is influenced by factors such as the ongoing war in Ukraine, escalating conflict in the Middle East, a challenging real estate market, political uncertainty after the recent national elections, increasing income ineq uality, and continued layoffs in the tech sector. The pandemic's lasting effects on society continue to be felt, including reduced in-person commerce, a rise in online shopping, the normalization of remote work, and fewer conferences and le isure services. Although there are encouraging signs in the recovery of sales tax and transient occupancy (hotel) tax, we acknowledge that full recovery of these two sources of tax revenue may take several years.
Fiscal 2024 financial highlights include the following:
City-wide:
• The City’s total net position was $685.2 million on June 30, 2024. Of this total, $439 million was Governmental and $246.2 million was business-type, a ne t increase of total $21.9 million from the prior year total of $663.3 million primarily due to an increase in cash and investments of $24 million. • City-wide revenues include program revenues of $113 million, genera l revenues and transfers of $114.8 million, totaling $227.7 million, an in crease of $16.6 million from the pr ior year total of $211.1 million, primarily due to an increase in operating and capital grants, contributions, and general revenues. • Total City-wide expenses were $205.9 million, an increase of $11.3 m illion from the prior year’s $194.6 million, primarily due to increases in governmental expenditures related to public safety and public works personnel costs and adjustments.
Fund Level:
• Governmental Fund balances were $264.4 million, a net increase of $18.4 million from Fiscal Year 2022- 23, primarily due to revenues exceeding expenditures by $12.2 million in the General Fund and $5 million in the Transit Area Impact Fee fund.
• Governmental Fund revenues were $159 million in FY 2023-24, up $10.4 million from the prior year’s $148.6 million, primarily due to the recognition of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) deferred revenue and a positive return in Use of Money and Property.
• Governmental Fund expenditures were $145.7 million compared to $144.3 million in Fiscal Year 2022-23 primarily due to an increase in General Fund expenditures, aligned with budget projections. • General Fund revenues of $134.1 million represented an increase of $7.8 million from Fiscal Year 2022- 23 revenues of $126.3 million caused primarily by recognition of ARPA defe rred revenue and positive return in Use of Money and Property.
5
• Net other financing uses of the General Fund were $(0.4) million in FY 2023-24 while FY 2022-23 had a total of other financing uses of $(2.1) million. The va riance was primarily due to use of reserves to fund General Government CIP projects. The General Fund ba lance of $85.3 million at fiscal 2024 was $11.8 million more than the fund balance at fiscal 2023.
OVERVIEW OF THE ANNUAL COMPREHENSIVE FINANCIAL RE
PORT
This Annual Comprehensive Financial Report consists of eight sections:
1) Introductory section, which includes the Transmittal Letter and general information; 2) Management’s Discussion and Analysis (this section); 3) The Basic Financial Statements, which include the Government-wide and the Fund financial statements, along with the Notes to these financial statements;
4) Required Supplementary Information;
5) Supplementary Information;
6) Combining statements for Non-major Governmental Funds and Fiduciary Funds; 7) Statistical information; and
8) Other report(s).
The Basic Financial Statements
The Basic Financial Statements comprise the City-wide Financial Statements and the Fund Financial Statements.
These two sets of financial statements provide two differe nt views of the City’s financial activities and financial position – long- and short-term.
The City-wide Financial Statements provide a longer-term view of City activities as a whole and are comprised of the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities. The Statement of Net Position provides information about the financial position of the City, including all its capital assets an d long-term liabilities on a full accrual basis, similar to that used by corporations. The Statement of Activities provides information about all City revenues and expenses, also on a full accrual basis, with the emphasis on measuring net revenues or expenses of each of the City programs. The Statement of Activities explains in detail the change in net position for the year.
The Fund Financial Statements report C ity operations in more detail than the City-wide statements and focus primarily on the short-term activities of the City Ge neral Fund and other Major Funds. The Fund Financial Statements measure only current revenues and expenditures, current assets, liabilities, deferred inflows/outflows of resources and fund balances, but exclude capital assets, long-term debt, and other long-term amounts.
Major Funds account for the major financial activities of the City and are presented individually, while the activities of Non-major funds are presented in summary, with subo rdinate schedules presenting the detail for each of these Non-major funds. Major Funds are explained further below.
The City is the Successor Agency of the Milpitas Redevelopment Agency. It holds funds to make payments according to the enforceable obligation s schedules and eventually dispose of other assets and properties of the former Redevelopment Agency for the be nefits of the taxing agencies. The Ci ty is also the depository agent for Local Improvement Districts and certain other entities. The fiduciary statements provide information about the cash balances and activities of the Successor Agency, Local Improvement Districts, and other entities. These statements are separate from City financial statements and their balances are excluded from City fund balances.
Together, all these statements are
called the Basic Financial Statements.
6
The City-wide Financial Statements
All of the City’s basic services are considered to be governmental activities, including general government, building
safety and inspection, public safety, public works maintenance, recreation, public improvements, planning and zoning, and general administration services. These services are supported by general City revenues such as taxes, and by specific program revenues such as fees. The City-wide financial statements can be found on pages 25-26 of this report.
All of the City’s business-type activities include water a nd sewer, which are also reported in the basic financial statements. Unlike governmental services, these activitie s are supported by charges paid by users based on the amount of their service consumption.
The City’s financial statements include the activities of four other separate legal entities, the Milpitas Public Financing Authority (MPFA), the Mi lpitas Housing Authority (Housing Authority), the Milpitas Municipal Financing Authority (MMFA) and Terrace Gardens, Inc., because the City is either financially accountable for these entities or has control of these entities’ governing boards.
Citywide financial statements are prepared on an accrual basis, which means revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred, regardless of when the related cash flows take place.
Fund Financial Statements
Governmental Fund financial statements are prepared on a modified accrual basis, which means they measure only current financial resources and uses. Capital assets and other long-lived assets, along with long-term liabilities, are presented only in the Citywide financial statements.
Enterprise and internal service fund fi nancial statements are prepared on a fu ll accrual basis and include all these funds’ assets and liabilities, both current and long-term.
The Fund financial statements provide detailed information about each of the City’s most significant funds, called Major Funds. Each Major Fund is presented individually, with all Non-major Funds summarized and presented in a single column. Subordinate schedules present the detail of these Non-major funds. Major Funds present the major activities of the City for the year. The General Fund is always a Major Fund, bu t other funds may change categorization of “Major Fund” from year to year, depending on City’s activities.
The City has four other Major Governmental Funds in fiscal 2024 in addition to the General Fund. These are the Housing Authority Fund, the Street Improvement Fund , the Transit Area Impact Fee Fund, and the General Government Capital Projects Fund, each of which is discussed in detail below.
Both of the City’s Enterprise Funds (Water Fund and Sewer Fund) are reported as Major Funds.
Comparisons of Budget and Actual financial information are presented only for the General Fund and other major governmental funds that are Special Revenue Funds. The City has one majo r Special Revenue Fund, the Housing Authority Fund.
Fiduciary Statements
The City is the Successor Agency of the former Redevelopment Agency and the agent for certain local improvement districts (Districts). The City holds property tax revenue distributed from the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF) to pay outstanding recognized obligations for the Successor Agency. The City also holds amounts collected from property owners which await transfer to th e Districts’ bond trustees. These activities are excluded from the City’s other financial statements because the City cannot use these assets to finance its own operations.
The City’s fiduciary activities are re ported in the separate Statement of Fiduciary Net Position, Statement of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position and the custodial Funds Statement of Changes in Assets and Liabilities. 7
CITYWIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
This analysis focuses on the net positi on and changes in net position of the City as a whole. Comparisons of the current year’s net position and activities with fiscal 2023 are presented in table form. Any significant changes are analyzed and discussed.

CAPITAL ASSETS
The City records the cost of all its infrastructure assets such as roads, bridges, signals, and similar assets used by the general population, and computes the amount of accumulated depreciation for these assets based on their original acquisition dates. At the end of fiscal 2024, the cost of infrastructure and other capital assets recorded on the City’s financial statements was as shown in Table 8 below:

Less accumulated depreciation (165.5) (158.7)
Totals $186.9 $184.6
The primary additions in fiscal 2024 were due to land and street improvement projects.
The City depreciates all its capital assets over their estimated useful lives. The purpose of depreciation is to spread the cost of a capital asset over the years of its useful life so an allocable portion of the cost of the asset is borne by all users. Additional information on depreciable lives and current year activities may be found in Note 8.
CASH AND INVESTMENTS
The City outsourced the mana gement of the City’s general investment pools to Chandler Asset Management effective June 1, 2020, and held in a custodial account with The Bank of New York. The City also established a Section 115 trust managed by PFM Asset Management. The managed portfolio consists of securities invested in accordance with respective City investment policies and California Government Code. 19
Total cash and investments increased $24 million from $370.4 million to $394.4 million. This increase was due to positive investment returns compared to the prior year’s unrealized market loss. As the Federal Reserve continues to raise interest rates, the valuation of current City fixed income portfolio may decrease because they were purchased and locked in at a lower interest rate. However, this decrease in value is an un realized market loss unless the City liquidates its investment holdings.
Total investment earnings for fiscal ye ar 2024 was $3.5 million. The change in fair value for the portfolio for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024 was an unrealized loss on investments of $1.9 million.
The following graphs depict the investment portfolio of $343.6 million cash and investments at June 30, 2024.
DEBT ADMINISTRATION
The City has issued debt in prior fisc al periods to finance several City CI P projects include Sewer infrastructure, Water infrastructure, energy improvement projects and the replacement of Fire Station No. 2.
In fiscal 2018, the City refunded th e 2006 Sewer Bonds with the 2017 Wastewater Revenue Refunding Bonds to reduce all-in interest costs over the life of the bonds. The 2017 Bonds are supported by pledges of net revenues from the City sewer system. In fiscal 2020, the Milpitas Mu nicipal Financing Authority issued Wastewater Revenue Bonds, Series 2019 in an amount of $29.8 million to fund certain improvements to the City wastewater system. The City also issued Water Revenue Bond s, Series 2019 in an amount of $1 7.1 million fund for Water system improvement projects.
20
In fiscal 2021, the Milpitas Municipal Financing Authorit y issued Lease Revenue Bonds in an amount of $18.4 million to finance a portion of the Fire Station No. 2 Replacement project and a variety of energy improvement projects. Each of the City debt issues are discussed in detail in Note 9 to the financial statements. At June 30, 2024, the City debt is comprised of:

CONTACTING THE CITY’S FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
This Annual Comprehensive Financial Report is intended to provide citizens, taxpayers, investors, and creditors with a general overview of the City’s finances. Question s about this Report should be directed to the Finance Department, at 455 East Calaveras Boulevard, Milpitas, CA 95035-5479, email us at [email protected] or at the City’s website at www.milpitas.gov. 21
STATEMENT OF NET POSITION AND
STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES
The Statement of Net Position reports the difference betw een the City’s total assets and deferred outflows of resources and the City’s total liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, including all the City’s capital assets and all its long-term debt. The Statement of Net Position focuses the reader on the composition of the City’s net position by subtracting total liabilities and deferred inflows of resources from total assets and deferred outflows of resources.
The Statement of Net Position summarizes the financial position of the City’s Governmental Activities in a single column, and the financial position of all the City’s Business-type Activities in a single column; these columns are followed by a Total column that presents the financial position of the primary government. This column is followed by a column that displays the discretely presented component unit.
The City’s Governmental Activities include the activities of its General Fund, along with all its Special Revenue, Capital Projects and Debt Service Fund s. Since the City’s Internal Serv ice Funds service these Funds, their activities are consolidated with Govern mental Activities, after eliminating in ter-fund transactions and balances.
The City’s Business-type Activities include all its Enterprise Fund activities.
The Statement of Activities reports increas es and decreases in the City’s net pos ition. It is prepared on the full accrual basis, which means it includes all the City’s revenues and all its expenses, regardless of when cash changes hands. This differs from the “modified accrual” basis used in the Fund fina ncial statements, which reflect only current assets, current liabilities, deferred inflows/outf lows of resources, available revenues and measurable expenditures.
The Statement of Activities presents the City’s expenses first, listed by the program, and follows these with the expenses of its Business-type Activities. Program revenues – that is, revenues which are generated directly by these programs – are then deducted from program expenses to arrive at the net expens e of each governmental and business-type program. The City’s general revenues are then listed in the Governmental Activities, Business-type Activities or discretely presented component unit column, as appropriate, and the Change in Net Position is computed and reconciled with the Statement of Net Position.
Both of these Statements include the financial activities of the City and the blended component units: the Milpitas Public Financing Authority (MPFA), the Milpitas Economic Development Corporation (EDC), the City of Milpitas Housing Authority (Housing Authority) and the Milpitas Municipal Financing Authority (MMFA). The Financing Authorities and Housing Authority are legally separate component units of the City, because they are controlled by the City and the City is financially acco
untable for their activities. The EDC is a California nonprofit public benefit Corporation that is also a legally separate component unit of the City because it is governed by a board consisting of the members of the City Council. The EDC became inactive as of June 30, 2015. The balances and the activities of the discretely presented component unit of Terrace Gardens, Inc. are includ ed in these statements as separate columns.
These financial statements along with the fund financial statements and footnotes are called Basic Financial Statements.

ALLOCATION OF INTERNAL SERVICE FUND NET POSITION
Internal service funds are not governmental funds. However, they are used by management to charge the costs of certain activities, such as insurance and central services and maintenance, to individual governmental funds. The net current assets of the Internal Service Funds are therefore included in Governmental Activities in the Statement of Net Position.

Reconciliation of the
NET CHANGE IN FUND BALANCES - TOTAL GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS
with the
STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES
The schedule below reconciles the Net Changes in Fund Balances reported on the Governmental Funds Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balance, which measures only changes in current assets and current liabilities on the modified accrual basis, with the Change in Net Position of Governmental Activities reported in the Statement of Activities, which is prepared on the full accrual basis.
NET CHANGE IN FUND BALANCES - TOTAL GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS $18,401,460 Amounts reported for governmental activities in the Statement of Activities are different because of the following:
CAPITAL ASSETS TRANSACTIONS
Governmental Funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the Statement of Activities the cost of those assets is capitalized and allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense.
The capital expenditures are therefore added back to fund balance (Internal service fund additions of $2,139,230 have already been added to capital assets) 12,195,343 Retirements of capital assets are deducted from fund balance (Internal service fund retirements of $365,582 have already been deducted from capital assets) (4,743)
Depreciation expense is deducted from the fund balance
(Depreciation expense is net of internal service fund depreciation of $1,289,220 which has already been allocated to serviced funds.)" (13,215,435)
LONG-TERM DEBT PROCEED AND PAYMENTS
Lease proceeds provide current financial resources to governmental funds, but issuing debt increases long-term liabilities in the Statement of Net Position. Repayment of lease principal is an expenditure in the governmental funds, but in the Statement of Net Position the repayment reduces long-term liabilities. repayment of debt principal and SBITA liabilities are added back to fund balance 693,676
ACCRUAL OF NON-CURRENT ITEMS
The amounts below included in the Statement of Activities do not provide or (require) the use of current financial resources and therefore are not reported as revenue or expenditures in governmental funds (net change):
Interest payable 1,733
Non-current portion of accrued vacation and sick leave (889,476) Non-current portion of uninsured claims payable (1,807,475) Subscription liability 151,052
Net pension liabilities and pension-related deferred outflows/inflows of resources (14,088,940) Net OPEB liabilities and OPEB-related deferred outflows/inflows of resources (35,170)
ALLOCATION OF INTERNAL SERVICE FUND ACTIVITY
Internal Service Funds are used by management to charge the costs of certain activities, such as equipment acquisition, maintenance, and insurance to individual funds.
The portion of the net revenue (expense) of these Internal Service Funds arising ou t
of their transactions with governmental funds is reported with governmental activities, because they service those activities.

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The City of Milpitas was incorporated as a general law city on January 26, 1954. The City operates under the Council-Manager form of government and provides the following services: public safety; fire and building inspection; engineering; public work s; water; sewer; sanitation; recr eation services; building and safety; planning and zoning; general administration services and economic development.
The financial statements and accounting policies of the City conform with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to governments. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard-setting body for governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. Significant accounting policies are summarized below:
A. Reporting Entity
The accompanying basic financial statements present the financial activity of the City, which is the primary government presented, along with the financial activities of its component units, which are entities for which the City is financially accountable. Although they are separate legal entities, blended component units are in substance part of the City’s operations and are reported as an integral part of the City’s financial statements.
Each discretely presented component unit, on the other hand, is reported in a separate column in the basic financial statements to emphasize it is legally separate from the government.
PRIMARY GOVERNMENT
The financial statements of the primary government of the City of Milpitas include the activities of the City as well as the Milpitas Public Financing Authority, the Milpitas Economic Development Corporation, the City of Milpitas Housing Authority and the Milpitas Municipal Financing Authority, all of which are controlled by and dependent on the City. While these are separate legal entities, their financial activities are integral to those of the City. Their financial activities have been aggregated and merged (termed “blended”) with those of the primary government of the City in the accompanying financial statements.
Blended Component Units
The Milpitas Public Financing Authority is a separate government entity whose purpose is to assist with the financing or refinancing of certain public capital improvements within the City. The Authority has the power to purchase bonds issued by any local agency at public or negotiated sale and may sell such bonds to public or private purchasers at public or nego tiated sale. The Authority is controlled by the City and has the same governing body as the City, which also performs all accounting and administrative functions for the Authority.
The financial activities of the Authority are included in the Sewer Utility Enterprise Fund.

B. Basis of Presentation
The City’s Basic Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with accounti ng principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Th e Government 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.
These Standards require that the financial statements described below be presented.
Government-wide Statements: The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities display information about the primary government, the City and its blended an d discretely presented component units. 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, except for interfund services provided and used, which are not e liminated in the process of consolidation. These statements distinguish between the governmental and business-type activities of the City. Governmental activities generally are financed through taxes, intergovernmental revenues, and other nonexchange transactions. Business-type activities are financed in whole or in part by fees charged to external parties.
The Statement of Activities presents a comparison between direct expenses and program revenues for each segment of the business-type activities of the City and for each function of the City’s governmental activities.
Direct expenses are those that are specifically associ ated with a program or function and, therefore, are clearly identifiable to a particular function. Program revenues include (a) charges paid by the recipients of goods or services offered by the pr ograms, (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 construc tion of capital assets. Revenues that are not classified as program revenues, including franchise fees that are based on gross receipts and all taxes, are presented as general revenues.
Fund Financial Statements: The fund financial statements provide information about the City’s funds, including fiduciary funds and blended component un its. Separate statements for each fund category- governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary-are presented. The emphasis of fund financial statements is on major individual governmental and enterprise funds, each of which is displayed in a separate column. All remaining governmental and enterprise funds are aggregated and reported as nonmajor funds.
Proprietary fund operating revenues and expenses, such as charges for services and the related costs, result from exchange transactions associated with the princi pal activity of the fund. Ex change transactions are those in which each party receives a nd gives up essentially equal values. Nonoperating revenues and expenses, such as subsidies, investment earnings and any related costs, result from nonexchange transactions or ancillary activities.
C. Major Funds
Major funds are defined as funds that have either a ssets and deferred outflows of resources, liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, revenues or expenditures/expenses equal to ten percent of their fund-type total and five percent of the grand total. The General Fund is always a major fund. The City may also select other funds it believes should be presented as major funds.

CITY OF MILPITAS
Notes to Basic Financial Statements
for the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) The City reported the following major governmental funds in the accompanying financial statements:
General Fund - The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City. It is used to account for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund. The major revenue sources for this Fund are sales taxes, property taxes, hotel taxes, unrestricted revenues from the State, fines and forfeitures and interest income. Expenditures are incurred for public safety, public works, recreation services and the other governmental services described above.
Housing Authority Fund – Established to plan and address the housing needs of the City and to act as the Ho
using Successor of the former Redevelopment Agency. The main source of the revenue for this fund is the repayment of loans restricted for housing activities.
Street Improvement Fund – Established to account for the construction and maintenance of the street system in Milpitas. Financing is provid ed through State and Federal grants.
Transit Area Impact Fee Fund – Established to account for the capital projects in the transit area. A special transit area impact fee is imposed on developments to provide financing.
General Government Capital Projects Fund – Established to account for the construction and maintenance of general government projects. Financing is provided by the General Fund.
The City reported all its enterprise funds as major funds in the accompanying financial statements:
Water Utility Fund – Accounts for the provision of water services to residents and businesses of the City. All activities necessary to provide such services are accounted for in this fund, including, but not limited to, administration, operations, capital improvements, maintenance, billing and collection.
Sewer Utility Fund – Accounts for the provision of sewer services to residents and businesses of the City. All activities necessary to provide such services are accounted for in this fund, including, but not limited to, administration, operations, capital improvements, maintenance, financing, and billing and collection.
The City also reports the following fund types:
Internal Service Funds – The Equipment Management Internal Service Fund is used to finance and account for the replacement of equipment used by City departments and the maintenance of the online permit development system on a cost reimbursement basis. The Pension Section 115 Internal Service Fund is used to accumulate funds to pay down the City CalPERS Unfunded Accrued Liability.
Fiduciary Funds – Trust funds account for assets held by the City as an agent for various functions. The Successor Agency to the Milpitas Redevelopment Agency Private-Purpose Trust Fund accounts for the accumulation of resources to be used for payments at appropriate amounts and times in the future. This fund accounts for winding down the affairs of the former Milpitas Redevelopment Agency and makes payments on the Enforceable Obligation Schedule and disposes of assets and prop erty of the former Redevelopment Agency for the benefit of taxing agencies. The financ ial activities of this fund are excluded from the City- wide financial statements but is presented in separate Fiduciary Fund financial statements. 54

Notes to Basic Financial Statements

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
D. Basis of Accounting
The government-wide, proprietary, and fiduciary fund 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 me thod, revenues are recognized when measurable and available.
The City considers all revenues reported in the gove rnmental funds to be available if the revenues are collected within sixty days after y ear-end. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for principal and inte rest on general long-term debt, including lease liabilities, claims and judgments, and accumulated unpaid vacation, sick pay and other employee benefit amounts, which are recognized as expenditures to the extent they have matured. General capital asset acquisitions, including entering into contracts giving the City the right to use leased assets, are reported as expenditures in governmental funds. Proceeds of general long-term debt, financing through leases and acquisitions under leases are reported as other financing sources.
Non-exchange transactions, in whic h the City gives or receives value wi thout directly receiving or giving equal value in exchange, include property taxes, gr ants, entitlements, and donations. On the accrual basis, revenue from taxes is recognized in the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied or assessed. 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 are sales taxes, significant building permit fees, and interest revenue.
Forfeitures, licenses, other permits and miscellaneous revenue are not susceptible to accrual because they are not measurable until received in cas h. Grant funding received in adva nce of the related expenditure is accounted for as unearned revenue.
Grant revenues are recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements are met. Under the terms of grant agreements, the City may fund certain programs with a combination of cost-reimbursement grants, categorical block grants, and general revenues. Thus, both restricted and unrestricted net position may be available to finance program expenditures. The City’s policy is to first apply restricted grant resources to such programs, followed by unrestricted resources if necessary.
E. Prepaids, Materials, Supplies and Deposits
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future fiscal years and are recorded as prepaid items in both government-wide and fund financial statem ents. The cost of prepaid items is recorded as expenditures/expenses when consumed, rather than when purchased.
Materials and supplies are valued at cost on a first-in first-out basis. Supplies in the enterprise and internal funds consist principally of materials and supplies for utility and internal operations. Materials and supplies of the governmental funds consist of expendable supplie s and materials held for co nsumption. The cost is recorded as an expense or expenditure in the funds at the time individual inventory items are consumed.
Prepaids, materials, supplies and deposits in govern mental funds are equally o ffset by nonspendable fund balance which indicates that they do not constitute available spendable resources even though they are a component of net current assets.

for the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
F. Deferred Inflows and Deferred Outflows of Resources
In addition to assets, the statement of net position or balance sheet reports a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. This separate net statement elem ent, deferred outflows of resources, represents a consumption of net assets or fund balance that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then. The City has pension-related deferred outflows of resources arising from certain changes in the collective net pension liability.
In addition to liabilities, the statement of net position or balance sheet reports a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of resources, represents an acquisition of net assets or fund balance that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. The City has deferred inflows of resources arising from certain changes in the collective net pensio n liability. These amounts are deferre d and recognized as an inflow of resources in the period that the amounts become available. In the government‐wide financial statements the City reports deferred amounts related to leases and deferred amounts related to pension and OPEB.
G. Property Tax
Santa Clara County assesses propertie s and bills, collects, and distributes property taxes to the City. The County remits the entire amount levied and handles all delinquencies, retaini ng interest and penalties.
Secured and unsecured property taxes are levied on January 1.
Secured property tax is due in two installments, on November 1 and March 1, and becomes a lien on those dates. It becomes delinquent on December 10 and April 10, respectively. Unsecured property tax is due on July 1, and becomes delinquent on August 31. Collection of delinquent accounts is the responsibility of the County, which retains all penalties.
The term “unsecured” refers to taxes on personal property other than real estate, land and buildings. These taxes are secured by liens on the property being taxed. Property tax revenues are recognized by the City in the fiscal year they are assessed, provided they become available as defined above.
H. Revenue Recognition for Water Utility and Sewer Utility
Revenues are recognized based on cycle billings rendered to customers. Revenues for services provided but not billed at the end of a fiscal period are not material and are not accrued.

CITY OF MILPITAS
Notes to Basic Financial Statements
for the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
I. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The City categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy establ ished by generally accepted accounting principles. The fair value hierarchy categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market.
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 inputs are inputs – other than quoted prices included within level 1 – that are observable for an asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for an asset or liability.
If the fair value of an asset or liab ility is measured using inputs from more than one level of the fair value hierarchy, the measurement is considered to be based on the lowest priority level input that is significant to the entire measurement.
J. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make esti mates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liab ilities at the date of the fi nancial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during th e reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
K. Subscription-Based Information Techno logy Arrangements (SBITAs) Accounting
A Subscription-Based Information Technology Arrangem ent (SBITA) is a contract that conveys control of the right to use another party’s (a SBITA vendor’s) information technology (IT) software, alone or in combination with tangible capital assets (the underlying IT assets), as specified in the contract for a period of time in an exchange or exchange-like transaction.
At the commencement of a SBITA, the City initially measures the subscription liability at the present value of payments expected to be made during the contract term. Subsequently, the subscription liability is reduced by the principal portion of payments made. The subscription asset is initially measured as the initial amount of the subscription liability, adjusted for payments made at or before the SBITA commencement date, plus certain initial direct costs. Subsequently, th e subscription asset is amortized on a straight ‐line basis over shorter of the subscription term or the useful life of the underlying IT assets. The City recognizes SBITA liabilities with an initial, individual value of $500,000 or more for all funds, except for Capital Project Funds which the threshold is set lower at $300,000, based on the future SBITA payments remaining at the start of the contract.
57
CITY OF MILPITAS
Notes to Basic Financial Statements
for the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Key estimates and judgments related to SBITAs include how the City determines (1) the discount rate it uses to discount the expected subscription payments to present value, (2) subscription term, and (3) subscription payments as follows:
• The City uses the interest rate charged by the IT ve ndor as the discount rate. When the interest rate charged by the IT vendor is not provided, the City uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for subscription liabilities.
• The subscription term includes the noncancellable period of the subscription.
• Subscription payments included in the measurement of the subscription 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 woul d require a remeasurement of its subscription and will remeasure the subscription asset and liability if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the subscription liability.
Subscription assets are reported with other capital assets and subscription liabilities are reported with liabilities on the statement of net position.
NOTE 2 – BUDGETS AND BUDGETARY ACCOUNTING
A. Budgets and Budgetary Accounting
The City adopts an annual operating budget on or before June 30 of the previous fiscal year, except for the General Government Projects, the Street Improveme nt, the Park Improvement and Storm Drain Capital Projects Funds which are budgeted on a project basis. The operating budget takes the form of a one-year financial plan which is adopted in its entirety by the City Council by resolution. As Milpitas is a general law city, it is not subject to a budgetary process prescribed by statute or charter.
The operating budget is subject to supplemental appropri ations throughout its term to provide flexibility to meet changing needs and conditions. The City Manager’s budget control remains at the level of department and/or project within any one fund. The City Mana ger may approve supplemental appropriations in the General Fund providing the total increase does not exceed 1% of the original total General Fund expenditure budget subject to the following: All additional approp riations that require the use of reserves must be approved by City Council. Expenditures cannot exceed the appropriated budget at the department level within each fund without City Council approval.
The City Manager is authorized to amend appropriations within the various departments and projects within a fund, provided that the amount of the amended appr opriation is $100,000 or le ss. Interfund transfers or transfers of an appropriation amount within a fund in which any single instan ce exceeds $100,000 require prior approval of the City Council.
Budgeted amounts are as originally adopted, or as amended by the City Counc il. Individual amendments were not material in relation to the original appropriations which were amended.

NOTE 2 – BUDGETS AND BUDGETARY ACCOUNTING (Continued)
B. Adjustments to GAAP Basis from Budgetary Basis
The City Manager budget control remains at the level of department and/or project within any one fund. The City Manager has discretion over an unanticipated reserve (approximately 1% of the General Fund operating budget), adopted by Council during the budget process. All additional appropriations that require the use of reserves must be approved by City Council. Expendi tures cannot exceed the appropriated budget at the department level within each fund without City Council approval.
The City Manager is authorized to amend appropriations within the various departments and projects within a fund, provided the amount of the amended appropriation is $100,000 or less and does not affect the overall appropriations of a fund. Interfund transfers or transfers of an appropriation amount within a fund in which any single instance exceeds $100,000 require prior approval of the City Council.

NOTE 3 – CASH AND INVESTMENTS
The City pools cash from all sources and all funds except Cash and Investments held by Trustees, so that it can be invested at the maximum yield consistent with safety and liquidity, while individual funds can make expenditures at any time.
A. Policies
The City invests in individual investments, money market mutual funds, and in investment pools.
Individual investments are evidenced by specific identifiable securities instruments, or by an electronic entry registering the owner in the records of the institution issuing the security, called the book entry system. To increase security, the City employs the Trust and Custody Department of a bank as the custodian of certain City managed investments, regardless of their form.
California Law requires banks and savings and loan institutions to pledge government securities with a fair value of 110% of the City’s cash on deposit, or first trust deed mortgage notes with a fair value of 150% of the deposit, as collateral for thes e deposits. Under California Law this collateral is held in a separate investment pool by another institution in the City’s name and places the City ahea d of general creditors of the institution.
The City investments are carried at fair value, as required by generally accepted accounting principles. The City adjusts the carrying value of its investments to reflect their fair value at each fiscal year end, and it includes the effects of these adjustments in income for that fiscal year.
B.

C. Piper Montague Infrastructure Payment Cost Sharing Agreement
In August 2009, the City entered in to a four-party agreement with thre e developers in the Piper/Montague Subdistrict in which the developers agreed to share in the costs of infrastructure improvements, including street improvements, storm drain installation and a traffic signal, and certai n storm water management facilities. Under the terms of the agr eement, when one of the developers undertakes a project related to the shared infrastructure improvements or storm water facilities project, that developer receives TASP fee credits equal to the other two developers pro-rata share of the improvements. The other two developers are then to reimburse the City for those TASP fee cr edits through the payment of the Piper Montague Infrastructure Fee Payment (PMIP), when building permits are issued, as a surcharge to the TASP fee. In the event the developers do not pay the PMIP fees within seven years of the completion date of the improvements, then the City may levy assessments or collect Mello-Roos special taxes from the applicable properties for the applicable share of the improvements. The cost of the shared infrastructure improvements and storm water facilities project is estimated to total $9.8 million. If a developer’s TASP fee credits resulting from the installation of the shared infrastructure exceed its aggregate TASP Fee obligations, the developer is not entitled to a cash payment from the City, but they may be entitled to a credit against other development fees.

NOTE 8 – CAPITAL ASSETS
All capital assets are valued at historical cost or estim ated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available, except for intangible right to use lease assets, the measurement of which is discussed in Note 10
below. Contributed capital assets are valued at their estimated acquisition value on the date contributed. The City’s policy is to capitalize all assets with costs exceeding certain minimum thresholds and with useful lives exceeding two years.
The City has recorded all its public domain (infrastru cture) capital assets, whic h include landscape, storm, street, and traffic systems.
All capital assets with limited useful lives and the right to use leased a ssets are required to be depreciated over their estimated useful lives. The purpose of de preciation is to spread the cost of capital assets equitably among all users over the life of these a ssets. The amount charged to depreciation expense each year represents that year’s pro rata share of the cost of capital assets. Depreciation of all capital assets is charged as an expense against operations each year and the total amount of depreciation taken over the years is reported on the statement of net position as a reduction in the book value of capital assets.
Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method which means the cost of th e asset is divided by its expected useful life in years and the result is charged to expense each year until the asset is fully depreciated.
The general capitalization threshold is $5,000. The City has assigned the useful lives below to capital assets:
Useful Lives
Years
Buildings and improvements 30
Other improvements 20
Machinery and equipment 10
Landscape system 50
Storm system 15-25
Street system 25
Traffic system 20
Water system 30-61
Sewer system 50
Capacity rights 32
Terrace Gardens, Inc. has assigned the following useful lives to its cap ital assets: Buildings, 50 years; Building improvements, 10-50 years; and Equipment, 5-7 years.
Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed. Interest incurred during the construction phase is reflected in the capitalized value of the asset constructed, net of interest earned on the invested proceeds over the same period.

NOTE 10 – LEASES
A. Policies

NOTE 10 – LEASES (Continued)
Lessor
The City is a lessor for noncancell able leases of buildings and fac ilities. The City recognizes a lease receivable and a deferred inflow of resources in the government‐wide and fund financial statements.
At the commencement of a lease, the City initially measures the lease receivable at the present value of payments expected to be received during the lease term. Subsequently, the lease receivable is reduced by the principal portion of lease payments received. The deferr ed inflow of resources is initially measured as the initial amount of the lease receivable, adjusted for lease payments received at or before the lease commencement date. Subsequently, the deferred inflow of resources is recognized as revenue over the life of the lease term.
Key estimates and judgments include how the City determin es (1) the discount rate it uses to discount the expected lease receipts to present value, (2) lease term, and (3) lease receipts as follows:
• The City uses bond interest rate as the discount rate for leases. • The lease term includes the noncancellable period of the lease. • Lease receipts included in the measurement of the lease receivable is composed of fixed payments from the lessee.
The City monitors changes in circumstances that wo uld require a remeasurement of its lease, and will remeasure the lease receivable and deferred inflows of resources if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the lease receivable.
Lessee
The City is a lessee for miscellaneous leases. If the lease is over the threshold, the City will recognize a lease liability and an intangible right‐to‐use lease asset (lease asset) in the government‐wide financial statements.
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 lease payments made. The lease asset is initially measured as the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for lease pa yments made at or before the l ease commencement date, plus certain initial direct costs. Subsequently, the lease asset is amortized on a straight‐line basis over its useful life.
Key estimates and judgments related to leases include how the City determines (1) the discount rate used to discount the expected lease payments to present value, (2) lease term, and (3) lease payments as follows:
• The City uses the interest rate charged by the less or as the discount rate. When the interest rate charged by the lessor is not provided, City generally uses bond interest 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 City is reasonably certain to exercise.

NOTE 12 – NET POSITION AND FUND BALANCES
Governmental fund balances represent the net current as sets of each fund. Net current assets generally represent a fund’s cash, receivables and deferred outflows of resources, less its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources. Portions of a fund’s balance may be restricted, committed or assigned for future expenditure.
Net Position is measured on the full accrual basis while Fund Balance is measured on the modified accrual basis, as explained in Note 1D.
A. Net Position
Net Position is the excess of all assets and deferred outflows of resources over all liabilities and deferred inflows of resources. Net Position is divided into three captions. These captions apply only to Net Position, which is determined only for proprietary funds and at the Government-wide level, and are described below:
Net Investment in Capital Assets and Capacity Rights, describes the portion of Net Position which is represented by the current net book value of the City’s capital assets and capacity rights, less the outstanding balance of any debt issued to finance these assets.
Restricted describes the portion of Net Position which is restricted as to use by the terms and conditions of agreements with outside parties, governmental regulations, laws, or other restrictions which the City cannot unilaterally alter. These principa lly include developer fees received for use on capital projects and redevelopment funds restricted for community development activities.
Unrestricted describes the portion of Net Position which is not restricted as to use.
B. Fund Balances
Governmental fund balances represent the net current assets of each fund. Net current assets generally represent a fund’s cash, receivables and deferred outflows of res ources, less its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources.

NOTE 12 – NET POSITION AND FUND BALANCES (Continued)
The City fund balances are classified based on spen ding constraints imposed on the use of resources. For programs with multiple funding sources, the City pr ioritizes and expends funds in the following order:
Restricted, Committed, Assigned, and Unassigned. Ea ch category in the following hierarchy is ranked according to the degree of spending constraint:
Nonspendable represents balances set aside to indicate items do not represent available, spendable resources even though they are a component of assets. Assets not e xpected to be converted to cash, such as prepaids, notes receivable, and property held for resale are included. However, if pr oceeds realized from the sale or collection of nonspendable assets are restricted, committed or assi gned, then nonspendable amounts are required to be presented as a component of the applicable category.
Restricted fund balances have external restrictions imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, laws, regulations, or enabling legislation wh ich requires the resources to be used only for a specific purpose.
Encumbrances and nonspendable amounts subject to restrictions are included along with spendable resources.
Committed fund balances have constraints imposed by resolution of the City Council which may be altered only by formal action of the City Council. Encumb rances and nonspendable amounts subject to council commitments are included along with spendable resources.
Assigned fund balances are amounts constrained by the City’s intent to be used for a specific purpose but are neither restricted nor committed. Intent is expressed by the City Council and may be changed at the discretion of the City Council. This category includes encumbrances; nonspendables, when it is the City’s intent to use proceeds or collections for a specific purpose; and residual fund balances, if any, of Special Revenue, Capital Projects and Debt Service Funds which have not been restricted or committed.
Unassigned fund balance represents residual amounts that have not been restricted, committed, or assigned.

11) The City will maintain capital rese rves in the Water and Sewer utilit y enterprise funds to provide for future capital projects and unanticip ated emergencies, such as water main break repairs, pump station repairs. The City will attempt to maintain a capital reserve of approximately 30% of the annual operating and maintenance expenses for the Water utility fund and 25% of the annual operating and maintenance expenses for the Sewer utility fund. The City Counc il will set the reserve amounts annually after the results of the prior fiscal year’s Annual Compre hensive Financial Report (ACFR) are known. For the year ended June 30, 2024, the capital reserve for the Water Operating Fund is set at $8,638,318 and for the Sewer Operating Fund at $3,805,577.
12) The City will maintain a Rate Stabilization Reserv e (RSR) in the Water and Sewer utility enterprise funds with a goal of at least 16.67% or two months of the respective annual operating expenditures after the Capital Reserve requirements have been met. The RSR shall be used to mitigate the effects of occasional shortfalls in revenue or unanticipated expenditures that cannot be re-balanced within existing budgeted resources in any given fiscal year. Revenue shortfalls may result from a number of events such as weather factors (wet weather or drought events and natural disasters), increased water conservation, and poor regional economic conditions. The Rate St abilization Reserves should be used to assist in smoothing out revenue variability re sulting from these factors and ensu re that adequate resources are available during such times that mi ght otherwise require large rate in creases to utility customers. The City Council will set the reserve amounts annually af ter the results of the prior fiscal year’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) are known. The RSR funding will be phased within five years, or sooner, as part of the fiscal year end closing process. Thereafter, the replenishment of these reserves may also be incorporated into the annual Adopted Operating Budget if resources are available to replenish the reserves.
13) The City will maintain $2 million infrastructure replacement funds in both the Water and Sewer Utility Enterprise Funds. The goal is to accumulate at least $2 million a year from each utility fund to set aside for replacement of infrastructure as the infrastructure reaches the end of its useful life.
14) The City will maintain a capital reserve in the Equipment Management Internal Service Fund to enable the timely replacement of vehicles and depreciab le equipment as cost. The City will maintain a minimum fund balance of at least 30% of the repl acement costs for equipmen t accounted for in this fund.

NOTE 13 – PENSION PLANS (Continued)
Beginning in fiscal year 2016, CalPERS collects employer contributions for the Plan as a percentage of payroll for the normal cost portion as noted in the rates above and as a dollar amount for contributions toward the unfunded liability (UAL). The dollar amounts are billed on a monthly basis, or the City can elect a lump sum payment option. The City’s required contributions for the unfunded liability in the Miscellaneous and Safety Plans for the year ended June 30, 2024, were $6,607,504 and $11,031,175, respectively, which were made under the lump sum payment option.

Total 915 11 136 366 9 79
Contributions – Section 20814(c) of the Ca lifornia 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 both 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 accrue d liability. The City is re quired to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees. Employer contribution rates may change if plan contracts are amended. If the City made additional UAL payments in FY21, FY22 or FY23, CalPERS may have issued letter s subsequent to the FY21 Actuarial Valuation to revise the required UAL payment amounts.
In May 2021, the City established a Section 115 irrevocable trust to set aside funds to meet the City’s future pension contributions or unfunded liabilities. The Trust is owned and moni tored by the City but externally managed by investment professionals. In June 2021, the City transferred $35.4 million to the Trust, and as of June 30, 2024, the City reported the account balanc e of the trust of $36,385,1 60. This amount has been reported as cash and investments in the Pension Section 115 Internal Service Fund.
B. Net Pension Liability
The City’s net pension liability for each Plan is measured as the total pension liability less the pension plan’s fiduciary net position. The net pension liability of each Plan is measured as of June 30, 2023, using an annual actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2022 rolled forward to June 30, 2023 using standard update procedures. A summary of principal assumptions and methods used to determine the net pension liability is shown below.
92
CITY OF MILPITAS
Notes to Basic Financial Statements
for the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 13 – PENSION PLANS (Continued)
Actuarial Assumptions – The total pension liabilities as of the June 30, 2023 measurement date were determined using the following actuarial assumptions:
Miscellaneous and Safety (1)
Valuation Date June 30, 2022
Measurement Date June 30, 2023
Actuarial Cost Method Entry-Age Normal Cost Method
Actuarial Assumptions:
Discount Rate 6.90%
Inflation 2.30%
Payroll Growth 2.80%
Projected Salary Increase (2)
Investment Rate of Return 6.90% (3)
Mortality Derived using CalPERS Membership Data for all Funds (4) Post Retirement Benefit Increase The lesser of contract COLA or 2.30% until Purchasing Power Protection Allowance Floor on Purchasin
g Power applies, 2.30% thereafter
(1) Actuarial assumptions are the same for all benefi t tiers (Classic Tier I, Classic Tier II, and PEPRA) (2) Depending on age, service and type of employment
(3) Net of pension plan investment expenses, including inflation (4) The mortality table used was developed based on CalPERS' specific data. The probabilities of mortality are based on the 2021 CalPERS Experience Study and Review of Actuarial Assumptions. Mortality rates incorporate full generational mortality improvement using 80% of Scale MP-2020 published by the Society of Actuaries. For more details on this table, please refer to the 2021 experience study report from November 2021 that can be found on the CalPERS website.
The underlying mortality assumptions and all other actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2022 valuation was based on the results of a November 2021 actuarial experience study for the period 2001 to 2019. Further details of the Experience Study can be found on the CalPERS website at www.calpers.ca.gov.
Discount Rate – The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability for each Plan was 6.90%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate for each Plan assumed that contributions from all plan members in the Public Employees Retirement Fund (PERF) 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, each Plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members for all plans in the PERF. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on plan investments was applied to all pe riods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability for each Plan.
The long-term expected rate of return on pension pl an investments was determined using a building-block method in which expected future re al rates of return (expected return s, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class.
In determining the long-term expect ed rate of return, CalPERS consid ered both short-term and long-term market return expectations. Using historical returns of all the funds’ asset classes, expected compound (geometric) returns were calculated over the next 20 years using a building-block approach. The expected rate of return was then adjusted to account for assumed administrative expenses of 10 basis points. 93

E. Public Agency Retirement System
The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990 (OBRA) mandates that public sector employees who are not members of their employer’s existing retirement system as of January 1, 1992 be covered by either Social Security or an alternative plan.
The City part-time, seasonal and temporary employ ees are covered under the Public Agency Retirement System (PARS), a defined contribution plan, which requires these employees to contribute 6% and the City to contribute 1.5% of the employees pay plus administration costs.
The City required contributions of $28,655 and the em ployee’s required contributions of $114,615 were made during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024.
NOTE 14 – EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
A. Deferred Compensation Plan
City employees may defer a portio n of their compensation under a City sponsored Deferred Compensation Plan created in accordance with Inte rnal Revenue Code Section 457. Unde r this Plan, participants are not taxed on the deferred portion of their compensation until distributed to them; distributions may be made only at termination, retirement, death or in an emergency defined by the Plan.
The laws governing deferred compensation plan assets require plan assets to be held by a Trust for the exclusive benefit of plan participants and their beneficiaries. Since the assets held under these plans are not City property and not subject to City control, they are excluded from these financial statements.
B. Retiree Medical Benefits
The liability for explicit subsidy be nefits for the dependents of City retirees were previously included together with other City plan OPEB liabilities. However, the City was also contributing directly toward the cost of these dependent benefits by making negotiated contributions determined as a percentage of payroll for active employees in each bargaining group, effec tively contributing twice. Be ginning with fiscal year 2020, the total OPEB liability for th ese dependent fund benefits is no w being determined and reported separately. Further discussion is included in Note 13C and 13D.
The City provides postretirement health care benefi ts through its defined benefit Retiree Medical Benefits Agent Multiple-employers Plan to employees who retire in good standing from the City after attaining the age of 50 and to certain employees who retire due to disability. As of June 30, 2024, there were 336 participants receiving these health care benefits.
The City joined the California Employers’ Retiree Benefit Trust (CERBT), an agent multiple-employer plan administered by CALPERS, consisting of an aggregation of single-employer plans. The CERBT issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information. That report may be obtained from the California Public Em ployees’ Retirement System, CERBT, P.O. Box 942703, Sacramento, CA 94229-2703.

Actuarial Methods and Assumptions – The City net OPEB liability was measured as of June 30, 2023 and the total OPEB liability used to calculate the net OPEB liability was determined by an actuarial valuation dated June 30, 2023, that was rolled forward using standard update procedures to determine the total OPEB liability as of June 30, 2024, based on the following actuarial methods and assumptions:
Actuarial As s umptions
Valuation Date June 30, 2023
Measurement Date June 30, 2023
Actuarial Cost Method Entry Age Normal Cost, level percent of pay As s et Valuation Method Fair Value
Actuarial As s umptions:
Discount Rate 6.15%
Inflation 2.50%
Salary Increase 3.00%
Investment Rate of Return 6.15%
Mortality Rate MacLeod Watts Scale of 2022 applied generationally Healthcare Trend Rate 6.5 in 2025, fluctuates until ultimate rate of 3.9% in 2075
The underlying mortality assumptions were based on the Macleod Watts Scale 2022, which is a two- dimensional mortality improvement scale reflecting both age and year of mortality improvement. The underlying base scale is Scale MP-2021 which has two segments: (1) historical improvement rates for the period 1951-2017 and (2) an estimate of future mortality improvement for years 2018-2020 using the Scale MP-2021 methodology but utilizing the assumptions obtained from S cale MP-2015. The Macleod Watts scale then transitions from the 2020 improvement ra te to the Social Security Administration (SSA) Intermediate Scale linearly over th e 10-year period 2021- 2030. After this transitio n period, the Macleod Watts Scale uses the constant mortality improvement rate from the SSA Intermediate Scale from 2028-2042.
The SSA's Intermediate Scale has a final step down in 2045 which is reflected in the Macleod Watts scale for years 2045 and thereafter. Over the ages 95 to 117, the SSA improvement rate is graded to zero.
The long-term expected rate of return on OPEB plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of OPEB plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset cla ss. These ranges are combined to produce the long- term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation. The City’s accumulated assets are allocated using one of three diversified allocation strategies offered by CERB T. The target allocation for each major asset class using Strategy 2 is summarized in the following table:
Target
Asset Class Allocation
Global Equities 49.0%
Fixed Income 23.0%
Global Real Estate (REITs) 20.0%
Treasury Inflation Protected Securities 5.0%
Commodities 3.0%

Discount Rate
Explicit Subsidy Liability – The City expects the trust assets to yield 6.15 over the long term, based on information published by CalPERS as of the June 30, 2023 valuation date. Net contributions to the trust in recent years have been set at a level to prefund the e xplicit portion of benefits, with no advance funding of the implicit subsidy liability. Accordingly, the discount rate used for the City’s explicit OPEB liability is
6.15%.
Implicit Subsidy Liability – The City expects to continue to fund the implicit subsidy liability on a pay-as- you-go basis. Therefore, the Fi delity 20 year AA General Obligation Municipal Bond Index was used in determining the discount rates used to calculate the implicit subsidy liability.
As of the end of the
Measurement Period, the discount rates for the Fidelity index were 3.86%.

D. Dependent Fund Post Employment Bene fit (OPEB) Plan (Total OPEB Liability)
Plan Description – The City provides continuation of medical coverage to its retiring employees and their eligible dependents, through its defined benefit Reti ree Medical Benefits Agent Multiple-employers plan.
Pursuant to various bargaining agreements with different employee groups, the City contributes a percent of total payroll toward the cost of medical coverage for the eligible dependents of retirees. The City does not define the eligibility for or amount of any such benefits paid, nor is it legally obligated to make any payments to these dependents. The extent of the City’s obligation is to make the negotiated contributions to the funds.
However, the City has determined that a liability for the projected cost of these benefits must be reported in its financial statements in accordance with current accounting standards. No assets are accumulated in a trust that meets the criteria in paragraph 4 of Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 75.

NOTE 16 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
A. Litigation
The City is subject to litigation aris ing in the normal course of business. In the opinion of the City Attorney there is no pending litigation which is likely to have a material adverse effect on the financial position of the City.
B. Federal and State Grant Programs
The City participates in several Federal and State grant programs. These programs are subject to audit by the City’s independent accountants in accordance with the provisions of the federal Single Audit Act as amended and applicable State requirements. No cost disallowances have been proposed as a result of audits completed to date; however, these programs are still subject to further examination by the grantors and the amount, if any, of expenditures which may be disallowed by the granting agencies cannot be determined at this time. The City expects such am ounts, if any, to be immaterial. 111

NOTE 16– COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (Continued)
C. Encumbrances
The City uses an encumbrance system as an extension of normal budgetary accounting for governmental funds.
Under this system, purchase orders, contracts, and other commitments for the e xpenditure of monies are recorded to reserve that portion of applicable appropriations. Encumbrances outstanding at year-end are recorded as assigned fund balance, since they do not constitute expenditures or liabilities. Outstanding encumbrances at year-end are automatically reappropriated for the following year. Unencumbered and unexpended appropriations lapse at year-end.
Encumbrances outstanding by fund as of June 30, 2024 were as follows:
Major Governmental Funds:
General Fund 2,340,251
Housing Authority Fund 46,574
Non-Major Governmental Funds 147,933
Total Encumbrances $2,534,758
D. South Bay Water Recycling System Facility Replacement
As required by the Water Pollution Control Plant’s National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit, the regional partner agencies are responsible for maintenance and operation of the South Bay Water Recycling System. The regional partner agencies, which includes the City of Milpitas, are also responsible for the planned $2 billion rehabilitation/replacement of the facility over the next thirty years. The City’s share of the project is approximately 6.196% as discussed in Note 8E.
E. Bay Area Water Supply and Conserva tion Agency Revenue Bonds Surcharge
The City contracts with the City and County of San Fr ancisco for the purchase of water from the Hetch Hetchy System operated by the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC). The City is also a member of the Bay Area Water Supply and Conservation Agency (BAWSCA) which represents the interests of all the 24 cities and water districts, as well as two private utilities, that purchase wholesale water from the SFPUC.
In 2009 the City entered into a new 25-year agreement with the SFPUC that includes a minimum water delivery level of 5.341MGD. One of the ways that the new agreement differs from the old is in how facilities constructed by the SFPUC that benefit the regional customers are treated from a rate and financial perspective.
Under the old agreement, facilities we re built, capitalized, and added to the rate base with a rate of return (interest), and then paid for over their useful lives through wholesale rates. Under the new agreement, the SFPUC issues revenue bonds and the de bt service (which also includes an interest component) is paid for through rates over the life of the bonds.
During the transition from the old to the new contracts, one of the issues addressed was the $370 million in assets still being paid for by the wholesale customers under the old agreement. The assets were transferred to the new agreement, assigned a life with an agreed upon rate of return of 5.13%. Also negotiated was a provision to allow the wholesale customers to prepay any remaining existing assets’ unpaid principal balance without penalty or premium. This prepayment was executed through the issuance of bonds by BAWSCA which provided a better interest rate given the favorable rate environment.

NOTE 16 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (Continued) BAWSCA issued Revenue Bonds in the principa l amount of $335,780,000 in January 2013 to prepay the capital cost recovery payment obligation and fund a stabilization fund.
The Bonds mature in October 2034
and are secured by surcharges to the monthly water purchase charges imposed upon the participating members.
The Bonds are not a debt obligation of any member, and BAWSCA’s failure to pay its Bonds would not constitute a default by any participating member.
Should any participating member fail to pay its share, BAWSCA will rely on the stabilization fund and will pursue all legal remedies to collect the shortfall from the delinquent member. In the interim, other participating members may have their portion adjusted to insure the continued payment of the debt service surcharge.
The risk of bearing the debt service expense of a defaulting member is not significantly different than the risk each member assumes currently for fluctuations in water purchase ch arges. Under the Bond indenture, BAWSCA maintains a stabilization fund. If surcharge re venues collected are less than needed (due to a member’s failure to pay timely), BAWSCA uses the stabilization fund to fund the debt service deficiency and increases the surcharge in the subse quent year to make up for the prio r year shortfall and reimburse the stabilization fund account. Also, given that each participating agency’s governing body adopted a Resolution to participate in the Bond issue, Management believes that default is generally very unlikely.
The annual debt service surcharges are a fixed amount for each partic ipant and calculated by taking the subsequent fiscal year’s debt service, multiplied by each participant’s actual water purchase as a percent of total wholesale customer water purchases from the prior fiscal year. One-twelfth of the annual surcharge is included in the monthly bill from SFPUC. Because each participant’s share of the debt service surcharge is proportional to the amount of water purchased during the prior fiscal year, the City’s share of the debt service will fluctuate from year to year.
The City paid its surcharge of $619,012 during fiscal year 2024, which is included as a component of purchased water expenses in the Water Enterprise Fund. The surcharge for fiscal year 2025 is estimated to be $791,844.
F. Housing Successor Excess Surplus
Health and Safety Code (HSC) Section 34176.1(d) defines an excess surplus as an unencumbered balance held by the housing successor that exceeds the greater of $1,000,000 or the ag gregate amount deposited into the housing successor fund during the housing successor’s preceding four fiscal years, whichever is greater. If a housing successor has an excess surplus, the HSC Section requires that the housing successor encumber the excess surplus for eligible purposes described in the HSC Section 34176.1(a)(3) or transfer the funds to another local housing successor within three fiscal years. If the housing successor fails to comply with this provision, the housing successor, within 90 days of the end of the th ird fiscal year, is required to transfer any excess surplus to the Department of Housing and Communi ty Development for expenditure pursuant to the Multifamily Housing Program or the Joe Serna, Jr. Farmworker Housing Grant Program. 113

NOTE 17 – SUCCESSOR AGENCY ACTIVITIES
A. Redevelopment Dissolution
In an effort to balance its budget , the State of California adopted AB x1 26 on June 28, 2011, amended by AB1484 on June 27, 2012, which suspended all new re development activities except for limited specified activities as of that date and dissolved redevelopment agencies on January 31, 2012.
The suspension provisions prohibited all redevelopment agencies from a wide range of activities, including incurring new indebtedness or obligations, entering into or modifying agreements or contracts, acquiring or disposing of real property, taking actions to adopt or amend redevelopment plans and other similar actions, except actions required by law or to carry out existing enforceable obligations, as defined in ABx1 26.
Effective January 31, 2012, the Redevelopment Agency was dissolved. Certain assets of the Redevelopment Agency Housing Reserve Fund were distributed to a Housing Successor; and all remaining Redevelopment Agency assets and liabilities were distributed to a Successor Agency. The Successor Agency received a finding of completion on June 27, 2014.
Under the provisions of AB 1484, the City can elect to become the Housing Successor and retain the housing assets. The City’s Housing Authority elected to become the Housing Successor and on February 1, 2012 and certain housing assets were transferred to the City’s Housing Authority Special Revenue Fund.
The City also elected to become the Successor Ag ency and on February 1, 2012 the Redevelopment Agency’s remaining assets were distributed to and liabilities were assumed by the Successor Agency. ABx1 26 requires the establishment of an Oversight Boar d to oversee the activities of the Successor Agency and one was established on March 26, 2012. The activities of the Successor Agency were subject to review and approval of the Oversight Board, which was comprised of seven members, including one member of City Council and one former Redevelopment Agency employee appointed by the Mayor.
On July 1, 2018, the duties of th e Milpitas Oversight Board transferre d to a new Santa Clara Countywide Consolidated Oversight Board, wh ich is now responsible for overseei ng the winddown affairs of all Successor Agencies in Santa Clara County, including the Successor Agency to the Milpitas Redevelopment Agency.
The activities of the Housing Successor are reported in the Housing Authority Special Revenue Fund as the City has control of those assets, which may be used in accordance with the low and moderate income housing provisions of California Redevelopment Law.
The activities of the Successor Agency are reported in the Successor Agency to the Redevelopment Agency Private-Purpose Trust Fund as the activities are under the control of the County Oversight Board. The City provides administrative services to the Successor Agency to wind down the affairs of the former Redevelopment Agency.
Cash and investments of the Successor Agency as of June 30, 2024 are discussed in Note 3. Information presented in the following footnotes represents other a ssets and liabilities of the Successor Agency as of June 30, 2024.

B. Development Agreements
The Successor Agency assumed the obligations of th e former Redevelopment Agency’s Disposition and Development Agreements as follows:
Installment Purchase Agreement
The Redevelopment Agency agreed to purchase two parcels of land comprising thirty-five acres surrounding the County Correctional Facility for $57 ,750,000 in cash and $135,000,000 payable over eighteen years at no interest.
The Agency also agreed to re-sell this land to developers for a total of $57,750,000, of which $40,000,000 was received in fiscal 2005 and the remainder was received on the close of escrow on the second parcel in fiscal 2006. The Agency’s intent in purchasing this land was to simultaneously re-sell it for development.
In addition, starting in 2024 the Agency is required to pay the County the greater of $2,000,000 or 50% of the sales tax revenue arising out of sales originating on certain properties that are in the Midtown Area, but not to exceed $5,000,000 annually, until the earlier of either June 30, 2038, the date that tax increment revenue allocated to the Agency has reached its limit or the termination of the Redevelopment Plan.

2. 2015 Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds
In March 2015, the Successor Agency issued Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds in the original principal amount of $127,790,000. The pr oceeds of the Bonds were used to advance refund and defease the outstanding balance of the 2003 Tax Allocation Bonds, which were redeemed on March 23, 2015. The Bonds are secured by Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF) revenues. In lieu of a reserve fund, the 2015 Bonds are secured by a reserve insurance policy in the amount of $11,822,000, issued by Assured Guaranty Municipal Corp. Principal is pa yable annually and the interest is payable semi- annually through 2032. The 2015 Bonds contain a provision that in an event of default, the Trustee may declare the principal of the bonds, together with all accrued interest at the date of default, immediately due and payable, or (b) exercise any and all rights and remedies available to it under applicable law, including right to enforce from the Successor Agency all payments due on the Bonds, and the Successor Agency will pay all reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Trustee and those of its attorneys. On August 27, 2021, S&P Global Ratings (formerly Standard & Poor’s Financial Services, LLC) upgraded its Local Currency Long-Term Ratings on the Bonds from ‘AA- to AA’.
