ITEM NO.: A–1
FILE I.D.: FIN262
DEPT.: FINANCE
PREPARER: J. KULBECK
SUBJECT: CONSIDER REVIEW OF THE CITY’S FISCAL OPERATIONS AND APPROVAL OF PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE FISCAL YEAR 2022–23 BUDGET
REASON FOR CONSIDERATION: The City Council reviews fiscal operations at midyear and considers revisions to the estimated revenue and appropriations budgets as necessary.

BACKGROUND: The City Council annually reviews the organization's fiscal operations for the first six months of the fiscal year. To assist in this Midyear Budget Review process, the following information is provided:

1. GENERAL FUND ANALYSIS – TABLE 1
Table 1 provides actual revenues and expenditures for the first six months of Fiscal Year 2022–23. Also included are current revenue and expenditure authorizations presented as "Adopted Budget," "6 Months Actual, and "Proposed Revised"— the latter incorporating changes contained within this midyear budget report. Specific reasons for revisions are discussed below.

The General Fund Analysis is a summary of data contained in Tables 2 through 4.

2. GENERAL FUND REVENUE DETAIL – TABLE 2
Table 2 provides supporting detail to the General Fund Analysis (Table 1) and contains each specific revenue account within revenue categories.

3. STATEMENT OF GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES FOR SIX MONTHS – TABLE 3 Table 3 compares the adopted budget to six months of actual expenditures for each department. Expenditures are broken down into the following categories:
(1) Personnel Services; (2) Services and Supplies; and (3) Capital Outlay.

Totals from Table 3 are summarized in Table 1 by department utilizing the breakdowns described above.

4. RECOMMENDED CHANGES TO THE 2022–23 REVENUE AND APPROPRI– ATIONS BUDGET – TABLE 4
Table 4 contains requests by departments to revise the Adopted Budget to address over–expenditures and/or unanticipated needs. These requests, when added to the Current Budget Appropriation, represent the 2022–23 Proposed Revised Budget summarized in Table 1.

MONTCLAIR CITY COUNCIL ADJOURNED MEETING – 02/22/2023 Page 2 of 6 Estimated Revenue Budget Adjustments
A summary of proposed changes to the Revenue Budget are included in the Fiscal Year 2022–23 Proposed Revised column in Table 1 and in detail in Table 2.

The City's Total Proposed Revised General Operating Fund revenues and budgeted transfers for Fiscal Year 2022–23 are $40,017,859. For the midyear review of fiscal operations, staff is recommending an increase of $1,447,506 in General Operating Fund revenues. The following discussion focuses on significant revenue changes from the Adopted Budget:
 Tax revenues reflect increases of $839,103. Measure L, Transaction and Use tax represents the majority of this upward adjustment. Minor to modest tax increases are, however, also expected for the following revenue sources:
property taxes, document transfer tax, and utility users tax.  Licenses and Permits revenue reflect an increase of $207,000. This revenue increase is due primarily to an increase in building permits.  Intergovernmental Revenues reflect an increase of $90,000 due primarily to OES Reimbursements.
 Fines and Forfeitures reflect an increase of $53,400. This revenue increase is due primarily to an increase in parking citation revenue.  Charges for Services reflect a increase of $187,000. This revenue increase is an overall net result of increases and decreases in this revenue category.

Zoining/Subdivision Fees saw a decline of $60,000 while Rubbish Collection Fees saw an increase of $100,000 and Plan Checking Fee saw an increase of $150,000; other minor increases and decreases brought this to the reflected increase.
 Miscellaneous Revenues reflect an increase of $71,000. This revenue increase is due primarily to an increase in Interest Income.

Appropriations Budget Adjustments
The Statement of General Operating Fund Expenditures for Six Months (Table 3) is included to provide the City Council with information necessary to assess whether departments are performing within their respective operating budgets. This table represents a snapshot at a point in time, and should serve only as a general guide as to where the City in total and the various departments stand. Expenditures are not typically incurred uniformily throughout the year; therefore, in order to show expenditures applicable through December 2022 the actual amounts displayed were adjusted to include costs which related to December but which were paid in the following month. This Statement shows an overall utilization of 54% of the appropriations for uses applicable through December 2022.

Proposed adjustments to the expenditure budget are included in the Recommended Changes to the 2022–23 Appropriations Budget (Table 4).

The City's Total Proposed Revised General Fund uses for Fiscal Year 2022–23 are $33,610,353. For the midyear review of fiscal operations, staff is recommending an increase of $1,546,110 in General Operating Fund expenditures as follows.
