Honorable Mayor, City Council, and Members of the Mountain View Community:
I submit for your information and consideration the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) of the City of Mountain View (City) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024.
FACTORS AFFECTING FINANCIAL CONDITION
The local economy has fully recovered to COVID‐19 prepa ndemic levels. The City’s major revenues have generally remained strong and have benefited from inflation as well as the increase in interest rates but are not increasing at the same rate as prior fiscal years. Thanks to the leadership of the City Council and through the support and hard wo rk of the Executive Leadership team and our outstanding City employees, we have provided an exceptional level of service to our community while maintaining fiscal stability during the fiscal year.
While revenues have recovered, expenditures are outpacing revenue growth. As a result, we are cautiously optimistic about the future fiscal health of the Ci ty. However, continued uncertainty surrounding inflationary pressures, elevated interest rates, transitioning national economic policies, and geopolitical conflicts cloud the economic picture. These all contribute to the likelihood of slower‐ paced growth in the future.
The current General Operating Fund Forecast indicates sufficient financial resources to maintain the Mountain View of today, but buildin
g the Mountain View of tomorrow will require that we continue to enhance and diversify the City’s revenue streams to maintain ongoing fiscal stability and accomplish bold initiatives the City is advancing.
On November 5, 2024, Mountain View residents overwhelmingly supported the vision for the Mountain View of tomorrow and passed a proposed ballot measure, Measure G, by 72% to create an additional tier to the existing property transfer tax for transactions over $6.0 million. Per City Council direction, this additional source of revenue will be dedicated to the following funding priorities for the next 10 years:
• Public Safety Facilities;
• Parks, Open Space, and Biodiversity;
• Affordabl
e Housing; and
• Other general governmental services, including road maintenance, active transportation, small business support, and homeless support services, among others. v

FINANCIAL INFORMATION
As
we move ahead, it is my pleasure to present the City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. The ACFR has been prepared in conformity with the principles and standards for financial reporting set forth by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) and in compliance with the City Charter, Section 1106.
Though the audit is
conducted by an independent certified public accounting firm, City management assumes full responsibility for both the accuracy of the data and the completeness and fairness of the presentation, including all disclosures. We believe the data, as presented, is accurate in all material resp
ects, that its presentation fairly shows the financial position and the results of the City’s operations as measured by the financial activity of the City’s various funds, and, in conjunction with the included notes, will provide the reader with an understanding of the City’s financial activities and status.
To provide a
basis for making these representations, City management has established a comprehensive internal control framework that is designed to protect the government’s assets from loss, theft, or misuse and to compile sufficiently reliable information for the preparation of the City’s financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Because the cost of internal cont
rols should not outweigh its benefits, the City’s
comprehensive framework of internal controls has been designed to provide reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that the financial statements will be free from material misstatement.
The City’s books, financial reco rds, and financial statements have been audited by Badawi & Associates, a firm of independent licensed certified public accountants, selected by and reporting to the City Council. The objective of the independent audit is to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements of the City and related entities are free of material misstatement. The independent auditor concluded, based upon their audit, that there was a reasonable basis for rendering an unmodified “clean” opinion on the City’s basic financial statements as of, and for, the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, and they are fairly presented in conformity with GAAP. The independent audit or’s report is presented at the beginning of the financial section of this report, on Page 1.
GAAP requires that management provide a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements in a section entitled Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). This letter of transmittal is designed to complement the MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it.
The City’s MD&A can be found immediately following the report of the independent auditors. The notes to the financial statements are provided in the financial section and are considered essential to fair presentation and adequate disclosure. vi
Honorable Mayor, City Council, and
Members of the Mountain View Community
November 22, 2024
The ACFR is divided into the following sections:
The Introductory Section includes this letter of transmittal, an overview of the organizational structure of the City, and prior awards received.
The Financial Section includes the following:
• In
dependent Auditor’s Report.
• Management’s Discussion and Analysis.
• Basic Financial Statements—Includes the government‐wide financial statements that present an overview of the City’s entire financial operations and the fund financial statements that present financial information for each of the City’s major funds as well as other governmental, proprietary, and custodial funds.
• Notes to Basic
Financial Statements—The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government‐wide and fund financial statements.
• Required Supplementary Information—Includes schedules required to be presented, showing information related to the City’s pension plans and other postemployment bene fits plan. • Other Supplementary Information—Includes the Budgetary Schedule of the Park Land Dedication Capital Projects Fund, Combining Statements and Schedules of the nonmajor governmental funds, internal service funds, and custodial funds.
The Statistical Section includes tables containing historical financial data, debt statistics, and miscellaneous social and economic data of the City that may be of interest to potential investors in the City’s bonds and to other readers. The data includes 10‐year revenue and expenditure information as well as 10 years of net position/fund balance information.
This ACFR includes the results of financial activities of the primar y government, which encompasses several enterprise activities as well as all of its component units: the Mountain View Shoreline Regional Park Community (Shoreline Community) and the City of Mountain View Capital Improvements Financing Authority (Financing Authority). Separate financial statements for the Shoreline Community are included following the Statistical Section. There is no legal requirement for a separate component unit report for the Financing Authority. vii

PROFILE OF THE GOVERNMENT
Th
e City was incorporated on November 7, 1902. The City Charter was originally approved by voters in 1952 and requires the City to operate under a Council‐Manager form of government. Seven Councilmembers are elected at‐large for four‐year terms that are staggered, so three or four seats are filled at the general municipal election
in November of every even‐numbered year. Continuous
service on the City Council is limited to two consecutive terms. Each year, in January, Council elects one of its members as Mayor and another as Vice Mayor.
With a population of approximately 86,535 and occupying just over 12 square miles, Mountain View is situated in Silicon Vall
ey, about 36 miles southeast of the City of San Francisco and 15 miles northwest of the City of San Jose.
The City provides the following full range of municipal services, which are reflected in this report:
• General governme
nt (city management, legal, human resources, information technology, and financial activities);
• Public safety (police and fire services);
• Public works (engineering, design, and utility maintenance); • Community development (land use, development review, inspections, and affordable housing); and
• Culture and recreation (library, parks, recreation, performing arts, and golf course).
Th
e City also provides water, wastewater, and solid waste utility enterprise activities, and the financial information regarding these activities is included in this report.
The financial reporting entity includes all funds of the primary government (i.e., the City) as well as its component units. The seven‐member City Council serves as the governing body of the Mountain View Shoreline Regional Park Comm
unity and the City of Mountain View Capital Improvements Financing Authority, although these agencies are legal entities separate from the City. These two agencies are considered component units of the City and are blended in the reporting entity.
However, this does not mean the City assumes the obligations or liabilities of these entities, and they are bu
dgeted and accounted for separately from the City.
No other agencies or activities associated with the City, or utilizing a name similar to the City, meet the established criteria for inclusion in the reporting entity and, accordingly, are excluded from this report.

Members of the Mountain View Community

The City Cou ncil is required by the City Charter to adopt a budget by June 30 to be in effect for the ensuing fiscal year, which begins July 1. Budgets are approved at the fund and department level (legal level of control) and may not be exceeded without City Council approval. Transfers and adjustments between
funds and capital projects must be submitted to the City Council for approval. The City Charter requires approval by five votes of the seven‐member City Council to amend the budget.
LOCAL ECONOMY
The City is centrally located in Silicon Valley and is serviced by several major freeways (U.S. 101, Interstate 280, State Ro
ute 85, and State Route 237) connecting the City to three international airports, shipping, and rail lines in the Bay Area. Mountain View is also a regional transportation hub and has transit stops for the Caltrain commuter train and Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) light rail system.
Even though the local economy has fully recover
ed to COVID‐19 prepandemic levels, the City is not
experiencing revenue growth at the same level as the prior fiscal year. The only General Fund revenues that are significantly higher than expected are property taxes and use of money and property (investment and rental inco
me). Overall, total General Fund revenue decreased from $234.0 million in Fiscal Year 2022‐23 to $221.1 million in Fiscal Year 2023‐24, a decrease of $12.9 million, or 5.5%. Except for property taxes and use of money and property, all major General Fund revenues expe rienced a decline in Fiscal Year 2023‐24, when compared to Fiscal Year 2022‐23.
Even though the City finances have fully recovered, the local business community continues to see lingering impacts from the COVID‐19 pandemic. As businesses grapple with hybrid and remote workforce strategies, commercial real estate vacancy rates continue to remain elevat ed and corporate layoffs persist. Office vacancy rates in Silicon Valley were estimated to be 16.8% between July and September 2024, with Mountain View estimated to be 21.6% for the same time period, according to Colliers, a commercial real estate firm.
Another indicator of the local economy’s health is unemploym ent. The unemployment rate in Mountain View in September 2024 was estimated to be 3.3% compared to the prior‐year rate of 2.8% for the same month, reflecting the relative continued strength of employment in the local region, especially when compared to the unemployment rate of the State of California as a whole.
Unemployme
nt rates in the area are expected to continue to increase as corporate layoffs continue to occur. In addition, a tight labor market could also push the unemployment rate up. Per the UCLA Anderson forecast, the “labor force decline is attributable to retirements, migration out‐of‐state, and individuals choosing to spen
d their time in nonmarket activities, such as child‐raising.” ix

Despit
e various financial challenges that have arisen in the past, the City has a history of maintaining prudent fiscal practices and budget discipline that has enabled the City to consistently maintain its AAA credit rating. The rating reflects the City’s sizeable property tax base, substantial revenue generated annually by the numerous commercial and residential leases in wh ich the City is the lessor, and a positive financial position supported by strong reserve levels and a very modest debt burden.
The economic vitality of the City relies upon a strong and diversified business community that is flexible enough to withstand economic challenges. As part of the City’s economic deve lopment efforts, the City works to attract and retain companies with growth potential and make the City a desirable location for the corporate community. As a result, Mountain View continues to be recognized as a prime location in Silicon Valley in which to live and work. Mountain Vi ew’s innovation economy includes major technology companies, including Google, Intuit, LinkedIn, Microsoft, Samsung, Siemens Medical Solutions, and Synopsys. Downtown Mountain View is a key location for businesses, especially start‐up companies, because of the diverse number of retailers, restaurants, and convenient access to public transportation.
The City is also committed to preserving its existing services and programs while investing in the future through prudent budgeting and infrastructure development. During the past decade, the City experienced a strong economy that, together with sound fiscal planning, has allowed the City to increase resources where needed and to pay down pension and other postemployment benefit obligations. It has also allowed for the maintenance of adequate reserves for times of economic downturn.

Property Tax
Property tax accounts for
36.7% of total General Fund revenues and is a key indicator of the City’s economic outlook. For reference, property tax revenue accounted for 33.8% of total General Fund revenues in Fiscal Year 2022‐23. Property tax revenue in the General Fund totaled $81.1 million in Fiscal Year 2023‐24
compared to $79.0 million in Fiscal Year 2022‐23, an increase of $2.1 million, or
2.6%. Even though property tax revenue has experienced significant growth over the past five years, future growth is expected to be nominal.

Even though median sales prices continue to hover around $2.5 million and 30‐year fixed mortgage rates hit a high of nearly 8% in October 2023, the number of home sales in the local housing market have rebounded, after experiencing a decrease in Fiscal Year 2022‐23. There were 262 single‐family home sales in Fiscal Year 2022‐23, compared to 227 in Fiscal Yea r 2021‐22, an increase of 35, or

Use of Mon ey and Property
Use of money and property, which consists primarily of lease revenue and investment earnings, is an important source of General Fund revenue and accounts for 23.3% of total General Fund revenues.
For reference, use of money and property revenue accounted for 20.3% of total General Fund revenues in Fiscal Year 2
022‐23. This revenue source generated $51.4 million in Fiscal Year 2023‐24, an increase of $3.9 million, or 8.2%, when compared to Fiscal Year 2022‐23. Use of Money and Property revenue is projected to experience a nominal increase in Fiscal Year 2024‐25 as the City’s investme
nt portfolio continues to earn higher investment returns. $0.0

LONG‐TE RM FINANCIAL PLANNING
The City annually prepares a five‐year forecast for its General Operating Fund and, periodically, a Long‐Range Financial Forecast to project revenue and expenditure trends for the next 10 years. As part of the Fiscal Year 2024‐25 Adopted Budget, a Five‐Year Financial Forecast (Forecast) was develope
d for Fiscal Years 2024‐25 through 2028‐29. A financial forecast, even with fluctuating economic variables, can assist with the identification of long‐term financial trends, causes of fiscal imbalances, future fiscal challenges, opportunities, and potential requirements; all of which may assist in keeping the City on a continuing path of fiscal su stainability. While it is challenging to accurately forecast revenues due to the variable nature of the revenue sources and their connection to regional, state, national, and international economic conditions, it is possible to identify reasonable financial trends and provide a conceptual financial picture that will be useful to the City’s decision‐ making.
The Forecast guides the City as it continues to confront the need to balance expenditures and revenues.
The General Fund Forecast projects a modest positive‐ending operating balance for Fiscal Year 2024‐
25. However, subsequent fiscal years are projected to result in modest operating deficits. Should the projected deficits come to fruitio
n, maintaining operating and emergency reserves during the period will help the City withstand possible future economic downturns.
In summary, the City weathered a challenging fiscal environment and has emerged stronger as key City revenues have surpassed prepandemic levels. However, local economic indicators are projecting a
flattening of revenues with slower‐paced growth anticipated in Fiscal Year 2024‐25, following strong revenue growth in the past several fiscal years. Uncertainty with inflation, interest rates, national and state economic policies, and geopolitical conflicts all contribute to the projected slower‐paced growth. In contrast, expenditures are expected to grow at a faster pace than revenues for the foreseeable future due in large part to anticipated increases in operational costs. ($5.0)

RELEVANT FI NANCIAL POLICIES
The City Council has established a financial and budgetary policy framework which is reviewed and updated as necessary by the City Council. A comprehensive and consistent set of financial and budgetary policies provides a basis for sound financial planning, identifies appropriate directions for service‐level developments, aids budgetary decision‐making, and serves as an overall framework to guide financial management and operations of the City.
The City’s adoption of financial policies also promotes public confidence and increases the City’s credibility in the eyes of bond‐rating agencies and potential investors. Such policies also provide the resources to react to potential financial emerge ncies in a prudent manner.
APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT
Article XIIIB of the California State Constitution, which became effective in Fiscal Year 1979‐80, and which was modified (by Proposition 111) in November 1989, establishes, by formula, an appropriation limit for governmental agencies. Using the appropriations of Fiscal Year 1978‐79 as the base yea
r, the limit is modified by the growth in inflation and population during each fiscal year.
Inflation is measured as the year‐over‐year growth in per‐capita personal income while population growth is based on a weighted growth measure that blends growth in the civilian population with growth in K‐12
and community college average daily attendance. Article XIIIB also sets the guidelines as to what is to be included in the appropriation limits.
The City’s appropriation limit for Fiscal Year 2023‐24 was $356,727,282; the City’s actual appropriations subject to the limit were $133,942,950, far below the limit. The Fiscal Year 2023‐24 appropriation limit increased from $342,417,977 in Fiscal Year 2022‐23 due primarily to the increase of 4.44% in California’s per‐capita personal income over the prior year, one of the factors used in calculating the change in the appropriation limit.

AWARDS AND ACKNOWL EDGMENTS
The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City for its Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. This was the 34th consecutive year the City has received this prestigious award. In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievem ent, the City had to publish an easily readable and efficiently organized ACFR that satisfied both GAAP and applicable legal requirements. The GFOA award is valid for a one‐year period only. I believe our current ACFR continues to meet the program’s requirements, and we are submitting it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another cer
tificate.
In addition, the City also received the GFOA’s Distinguished Budget Presentation Award for the City’s annual budget document for Fiscal Year 2023‐24. In order to qualify for this Distinguished Budget Presentation Award, the government’s budget document had to be judged proficie nt as a policy document, a financial plan, an operations guide, and a communication device.
Special recognition is extended to Arn Andrews, Assistant City Manager; Derek Rampone, Finance and Administrative Services Director; Grace Zheng, Assistant Finance and Administrative Services Director; and the entire staff of the Finance and Administrative Services Departm ent for their dedication to all City departments, residents, and customers on a daily basis. The preparation of this report could not have been achieved without the skillful, dedicated, and efficient services of the entire staff of the Finance and Administrative Services Department. In particular, Helen He, Accounting Manager; Janet Shum, Senior Accountant; and Marichi Valle, Accountant, were
instrumental in preparing the ACFR accurately and in a timely manner. Every member of the department deserves recognition and thanks for their commitment to the City and their profession.

nancial operations of the City in a fiscally responsible manner that continues to serve in the best interests of the residents of the City.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
of the City of Mountain View
Mountain View, California
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the financial statements of the governme ntal activities, the busine ss-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Mountain View (City), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements pres ent fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type ac tivities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City, as of June 30, 2024, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicab le, cash flows thereof and the respective budgetary comparison for the General Fund, Shoreline Regional Park Community Fund, and the Housing Fund, for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing st andards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS) and the standards applicab le to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the Un ited States. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Resp onsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be inde pendent of the City and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
To the Honorable Mayor and Members
of the City Council of the City of Mountain View
Mountain View, California
In preparing the financial statements, management is re quired to eval uate wheth er there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months beyond the financ ial statement date, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issu e an auditor’s report that includes our opinions. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolu te assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may in volve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we:
Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. Identify and assess the risks of material misstat ement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and pe rform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circ umstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting polic ies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as we ll as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant au dit findings, and certain internal control–related matters that we identified during the audit.
2 To the Honorable Mayor and Members
of the City Council of the City of Mountain View
Mountain View, California
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting princi ples generally acce pted in the
United States of America require that the management’s
discussion and analysis, and the required pension and OPEB information schedules, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and, although not a part of the basic financial statemen ts, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operatio nal, economic, or historical contex t. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary informatio n in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the informat ion for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with suffi cient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements. The individual and combining fund financial statements and schedules are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.
The individual and combining fund financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financ ial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in acco rdance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the individual and combining fund financial statements and schedules are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
Other Information
Management is responsible for the other informatio n a nnual financial report. The other information
comprises the introductory section, statistical sectio n, and component unit financial statements section but does not include the basic financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Our opinions on the basic financial statements do not cover the other information, and we do not express an opinion or any form of assurance thereon. In connection with our audit of the basic financial stat ements, our responsibility is to read the other information and consider whether a material inconsistency exists between the other information and the basic financial statements, or the ot her information otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work performed, we conclu de that an uncorrected material misstatement of the other information exists, we are required to describe it in our report. 3 To the Honorable Mayor and Members
of the City Council of the City of Mountain View
Mountain View, California
Other Repo
rting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated November 22, 2024 on our consideration of the City’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, cont racts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting or on compliance.
That report is an integral part of an audit
performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) (Unaudited) For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2024
This section of the City of Mountain View’s (City) Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) presents a narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. We encoura
ge readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with additional information that has been furnished in our Letter of Transmittal and Basic Financial Statements and to recognize that the financial statements focus on past results compared to the City’s operating budget, which focuses on future goals and allocation of resources.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Key financial highlights for the fiscal year are outlined below. Details can be found in the Government‐Wide Financial Analysis the Financial Analysis of the City’s Funds sections of this MD&A.
• The assets and deferred outflows of resources of the City exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources at the close of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 by $1.6 billion (net position). Of this amount, $229.3 million represents unrestricted net position, which may be used to meet the City’s ongoing obligations. • The City’s total net position increased by $98.8 million compared to the increase of $112.0 million in the prior fiscal year, a decrease of 11.8% in the current fiscal year when compared to the prior fiscal year. Of this amount, $85.2 million was generated by governmental activities and $13.6 million by business‐type activities. Overall, citywide expenses were up $31.1 million, while revenues were only up $17.2 million. • The City’s total outstanding long‐term debt decreased modestly by $1.5 million in the current fiscal year, primarily due to scheduled debt service payments, offset by increases in landfill containment and claims liabilities.
• The City’s net pension liabilities increased by $12.9 million, a relatively small increase compared to last year’s increase of $128.8 million. This is primarily attributed to positive investment earnings experienced in FY 2022‐23 and realized in Fiscal Year 2023‐24. In the prior fiscal year, CalPERS experienced a negative 6.1% return on investments, which was the main driver of the large increase in the pension liability last year. Net other post‐ employment benefit (OPEB) liabilities decreased by $2.2 million due to the same reason. • The City’s governmental funds reported total fund balances of $1.0 billion, an increase of $70.0 million, or 7.2% from the prior fiscal year. The increase is mainly in the General Capital 5 Project Funds due to funding of projects that haven't started yet or are in the early stages of construction.
• The total fund balance of the General Fund was $238.7 million, an increase of $2.1 million, or 0.9% from the prior fiscal year. Approximately $133.3 million of this amount, or 55.9%, represents unassigned fund balance which
is available to meet the City’s current and future
needs. This unassigned fund balance has been designated for future one‐time expenditures, one‐time payments toward unfunded liabilities, and emergency funds and is
70.6% of total General Fund expenditures for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. This is an increase from 69.2% of total
General Fund expenditures in the prior fiscal year.
OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
This Discussion and Analysis document is intended to serv e as an introduction to the City’s basic
financial statements. The City’s basic financial statements are comprised of three components:
(1) government‐wide financial statements; (2) fund financial statements; and (3) notes to the basic financial statements. This report also contains required and other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements themselves.
Government‐Wide Fina
ncial Statements
The government‐wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the City’s finances in a manner similar to a private‐sector business.
The Statement of Net Position presents information on all of the City’s assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources, with the difference between them reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the overall financial position of the City is improving or deteriorating.
The Statement of Activities presents information showing how the City’s net position changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows.
Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods, such as revenues pertaining to uncollected taxes and expenses pertaining to earned, but unused, vacation and sick leave.
Both of the government‐wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges (business‐type activities). The governmental activities of the City include general government, public safety, public works, community development, and culture and recreation. The business‐type activities of the City include water, wastewater, and solid waste operations (enterprise funds).
6 The government‐wide financial statements include not only the City itself (known as the primary government) but also two legally separate entities for which the City is financially accountable:
(1) Mountain View Shoreline Regional Park Community (Shoreline Community or SRPC); and (2) City of Mountain View Capital Improvements Financing Authority (Financing Authority).
Although legally separate from the City, these co
mponent units are blended with the primary
government because they have the same governing board as the City and because of their financial relationship with the City. In addition, separate financial statements for the Shoreline Community component unit are included within the City’s ACFR.
Fund Financ
ial Statements
The fund fi
nancial statements are designed to report information about groupings of related accounts, which are used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City, like other State and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance‐related legal requirements. All of the funds of the City can be divided into the f
ollowing three categories: governmental funds,
proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds.
Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities in the government‐wide financial statements. However, unlike the government‐wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near‐ term inflows and outflows of spendable resources as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in determining wha t financial resources are available in the near future to finance the City’s programs.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government‐wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government‐wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long‐term imp act of the
government’s near‐term financing decisions. Both the governmental funds Balance Sheet and the governmental funds Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities
.
The City maintains several individual governmental funds organized according to their type (special revenue, debt service, and capital projects funds). Information is presented separately in the governmental funds Balance Sheet and in the governmental funds Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances for the General Fund, Shoreline Re gional Park Community Fund, Housing Fund, General Capital Projects Fund, and Park Land Dedication Capital Projects Fund, all of which are considered to be major funds. Data from the remaining governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these nonmajor governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements elsewhere in this report
.
7 The City adopts an annual appropriated budget for most of its funds except the General Capital Projects Fund, which is budgeted on a project basis. Budgetary comparison statements and schedules have been provided for these funds to demonstrate compliance with budgets.
Proprietary funds are generally used to account for services for which the City charges customers, either external customers or internal customers or departments of the City. Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as shown in the government‐wide financial statements, only in more detail. The City maintains two different types of proprietary funds.
Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business‐type activities in the government‐wide financial statements. Th
e City uses enterprise funds to account for its water, wastewater, and solid waste operations, all of which are considered to be major funds of the City.
Internal service funds are used to accumulate and allocate costs internally among the City’s various functions. The City uses internal service funds to account for its equipment maintenance and replacement, Retirees’ Health Plan, Employee Benefits Plan, and various other self‐insurance liability programs. Because these services predominantly benefit governmental rather than business‐type functions, they
have been included within governmental activities in the government‐wide financial statements. The internal service funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation in the proprietary funds financial statements. Individual fund data for the internal service funds is provided in the form of combining statements elsewhere in this report.
Fiduciary funds are used to account for fiduciary activities and resources held for the benefit of individuals, organizations, or other governments that are not part of the City. These are comprised of custodial funds, which are not required to be reported in pension (and other employee benefit) trust funds, investment trust funds, or private‐purpose trust funds and include custodial balances and activities of the City’s labor unions, flexible benefits, and Center for Performing Arts. Since the resources of these funds are not available to support the City’s own programs, they are not reflected in the government‐wide financial statements.
Notes to the Basic Financial Statements
The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government‐wide and fund financial statements.
Other
Required Supplementary Information includes schedules required to be presented showing information related to the City’s pension plans and other post‐employment benefits plan.
Other Supplementary Information includes the combining statements and schedules of the nonmajor governmental funds, internal service funds, and custodial funds. 8 GOVERNMENT‐WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS

(Dollars in Thousands)
TotalGovernmental Activities Business ‐Type Activities
42.2% of the City’s net position, amounting to $682.2 million, reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g., land, buildings, other improvements, etc.) less any related outstanding debt used to acquire or construct those assets. The City uses these capital assets to provide services to its residents and community members. Therefore, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City’s investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources since the capital assets themselves cannot be liquidated for these liabilities. The largest portion (43.6%) of the City’s net position, or $703.9 million, represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they may be used. The last portion of the City’s net position, $229.3 million (14.2%), represents unrestricted net position and may be used to meet the City’s ongoing obligations.
9 The City’s total noncurrent liabilities increased by $9.3 million, compared with the prior fiscal year, primarily due to an increase of net pension liability of $12.9 million, which is a moderate increase compared to the prior year’s increase of $128.8 million.

11 • Property taxes increased by $10.4 million over the prior fiscal year as the residential and commercial real estate markets continued to experience strong growth in assessed values. • The investment income increased by $34.0 million over the prior fiscal year, mainly due to the unrealized gains on investments and the higher interest earnings resulting from the elevated interest rates being earned on investments.
The following charts are graphical comparison of the City’s governmental expenses by function for Fiscal Years 2023‐24 and 2022‐23. Please note the expenses do not include capital outlays as those are added to the City’s capital assets.
Expense Highlights
Total expenses increased to $279.7 million in the current fiscal year , an increase of $17.0 million,
or by 6.5% compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase is mainly due to increases in salaries and benefits that include pension and OPEB expenses related to adjustments required by GASB Statement Nos. 68 and 75. Salaries and benefits are higher in the current fiscal year as a result of an increase in authorized positions, Council‐approved cost‐of‐living adjustments, an increase in benefit costs and higher additional pension UAL (unfunded Accrued Liability) payments.

eased the City’s net position by $13.6 million compared to an increase of $22.3 million from the prior fiscal year. The significant key factors are as follows:
• Water net position increased by $3.2 million, primarily due to capital contributions of $1.9 million and investment income of $1.3 million.
• Wastewater net position increased by $8.6 million, prim arily due to net operating income
of $5.3 million, investment income of $1.5 million, and developer capital contributions of $1.0 million.
• Solid waste net position increased by $1.8 million, primarily due to net operating income of $1.4 million.
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE CITY’S FUNDS
As noted earlier, the City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with
finance‐related legal requirements.
Governmental Funds—The focus of the City’s governmental funds is to account for the near‐ term inflows, outflows, and balances of resources that are available for spending. This information is useful in assessing the City’s financing requirements. In particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government’s net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year. Types of governmental funds reported by the City include the General Fund, Special Revenue Funds, Debt Service Funds, and Capital Project Funds.
At June 30, 2024, the City’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $1.0 billion, an increase of $70.0 million compared to the prior fiscal year. The components for the change are increases of $2.1 million in the General Fund, $22.8 million in the Shoreline Regional Park Community Fund, $8.5 million in the Housing Fund, and $39.8 million in the Capital Projects fund, offset by a decrease of $3.1 million in the Park Land Dedication Capital Projects Fund.
Total fund balance is comprised of an unassigned fund balance of $133.3 million that is available for spending at the City’s discretion. The remainder of the fund balance is nonspendable ($7.2 million), restricted ($776.0 million), committed ($115.6 million), and assigned ($5.3 million), none of which are available for new discretionary spending.
Total revenues for governmental funds were $364.8 million while expenditures were $290.6 million. The revenues were $74.2 million more than total expenditures. 13 The General Fund is used to account for all revenues and expenditures necessary to carry out basic government activities of the City that are not accounted for through other funds.
At June 30, 2024, the unassigned fund balance of $133.3 million was $6.2 million higher than the prior fiscal year.
As a measure of the General Fund’s liquidity, it may be useful to compare both unassigned fund balance and total fund balance to total fund expenditures. Unassigned fund balance of $133.3 million represents 55.9% of total fund balance, 70.6% of fund expenditures of $189.0 million, while total fund balance represents 126.3% of that same amount.
The fund balance of the City’s General Fund increased by $2.1 million during the current fiscal year. Total General Fund revenues decreased to $221.0 million, a decrease of $13.0 million over the prior fiscal year. The decrease is primarily due to decreases in intergovernmental revenues ($9.5 million) and charges for services ($3.5 million). Intergovernmental revenue decreased, primarily due to the receipt of $9.7 million in the ARPA (American Rescue Plan Act) grant fund in Fiscal Year 2022‐23, with no comparable large grants received in Fiscal Year 2023‐24. Charges for Services decreased, primarily due to a $1.3 million decrease in plan check fees revenue, resulting from reduced project activities, and the receipt of $1.1 million under an agreement with Google to reimburse the costs of two planners and two engineer limited‐term positions in the prior fiscal year.
General Fund expenditures increased by $5.4 million over the prior fiscal year, primarily due to the increase of $12.0 million in salaries and benefits costs, offset by a decrease in capital outlay of $6.5 million. The increase in salaries and benefits is due to positions added in Fiscal Year 2023‐24, merit and market salary rate adjustments, and pension contributions. The capital outlay decreased primarily due to the City’s $3.1 million contribution to residential development project at 777 West Middlefield Road and the addition of $3.8 million in leased assets in the prior fiscal year.

Fiscal Year 2022‐23 General Fund
Expenses by Type
16 The Shoreline Regional Park Community Fund receives property taxes on properties within the Shoreline Community. The fund accounts for the revenues and expenditures of the Shoreline Community.
Revenues were $78.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $14.2 million over the prior fiscal year. Revenues increased, primarily due to an $8.2 million increase in property tax revenues and a $6.1 million increase in investment earn ings, driven by higher interest rates and unrealized gains during Fiscal Year 2023‐24.
Expenditures were $31.2 million compared to $28.5 million in the prior fiscal year. Of this amount, $25.4 million was expended on general government, which is $2.8 million higher when compared to the prior fiscal year.
In addition, $33.7 million was transferred out for
capital improvement projects and debt service
payments compared to $27.7 million in the prior fiscal year. The fund balance of $109.1 million as of June 30, 2024 is restricted for expenditures of the Shoreline Community.
The Housing Fund accounts for fees paid by developers to provide for increasing and improving the supply of extremely low‐, very low‐, low‐, and moderate‐income housing (affordable housing).
Revenues were $9.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of $1.0 million from the prior fiscal year. The fund balance of $185.9 million is restricted for future affordable housing projects.
The General Capital Projects Fund accounts for all
general capital improvements not funded from
proprietary funds.
Revenues were $22.2 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $19.2 million from the prior year, primarily due to $14.6 million increase in investment earnings and $5.0 million increase in intergovernmental revenue. Investment earnings increased as a result of higher interest rates and unrealized gains on investments during this fiscal year. The increase in Intergovernmental revenue was attributed to $1.7 million grants from Santa Clara County for the Magical Bridge Playground project and $2.3 million from Silicon Valley Transportation Measure B grants.
Expenditures were $54.9 million, which was $30.8 million less than the prior fiscal year. These funds were expended on capital outlay projects, including: Rengstorff Park Aquatics Center Replacement Design and Construction, All‐Inclusive Playground, and Rengstorff Park Maintenance and Tennis Buildings Replacement Design and Construction. The fund balance of $318.8 million is available to fund approved capital projects. The decrease in expenditures is attributed to the acquisition of 909 and 917 San Rafael Avenue property and the 87 East Evelyn Avenue lot, which took place in the prior fiscal year.
17 The Park Land Dedication Capital Projects Fund accounts for revenues derived from fees on residential subdivisions used for park and recreation projects.
Revenues were $3.8 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of $13.9 million from the prior fiscal year. The decrease was primarily due to decreased developer contributions, which was partially offset by increased investment earnings. The developer contributions decreased due to the $16.1 million contribution received for the 777 West Middlefield Road project in the prior fiscal year. There was no expenditure incurred in the current year. The fund balance of $65.3 million is available for park and recreation projects.
Proprietary Funds—The City’s proprietary funds statements provide the same type of information found in the government‐wide financial statements but in more detail.
At the end of the fiscal year, the unrestricted net positions for the Water, Wastewater, and Solid Waste Funds are $61.6 million, $69.4 million, and $17.1 million, respectively. The total increase in net position for the enterprise funds from the prior fisc al year is $13.6 million. The net operating income of the Water Fund (negative $365,000) and Wastewater Fund ($5.3 million) decreased by $2.3 million and $2.4 million, respectively, when compared to the prior fiscal year.
The decrease in the Water Fund is primarily due to the $4.0 million minimum wate r obligation payment, while the reduction in the Wastewater Fund is attributed to the higher usage at the Treatment plant. The Solid Waste Fund’s net operating income ($1.4 million) increased by $915,000 over the prior year. Factors concerning the finances of the enterprise funds have also been addressed previously in the discussion of the City’s business‐type activities. The internal service funds have an unrestrict
ed net position of $38.9 million at June 30, 2024.
Fiduciary Funds—The City maintains fiduciary funds for fiduciary activities and assets held by the City in custodial capacity for the benefit of agencies outside of the City or employees. As of June 30, 2024, the assets of the custodial funds totaled $670,000, comparable to the prior fiscal year.
GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS
General Fund differences between the original Fiscal Year 2023‐24 budget and the final amended budget resulted in an increase of $651,000 in budgeted revenue (primarily related to Other Revenues) and a $13.4 million increase in expenditure appropriations. Approximately $7.7 million of the adjustment in expenditure appropriations is related to prior‐year encumbrances that carry forward at the beginning of the fiscal year as specified in the City Charter. An additional $1.5 million of appropriations was established for payment for building inspection and fire plan checking contract services related to development activity, which are cost‐recovered by fees paid by developers. An additional $1.7 million of appropriations was established for the payment of compensated absences. The balance of adjustments was made midyear for various operational needs not anticipated at budget adoption and grants or reimbursements received during the fiscal year.
18 General Fund actual revenues are $20.5 million or 10.2% higher than the final amended budget for the fiscal year. The variance is primarily due to the following revenues coming in higher‐than‐ expected:
• Investment and lease interest income—$20.2 million higher (primarily noncash mark‐to‐ market accounting adjustments for unrealized portfolio gains). • Property tax revenues—$6.6 million higher.
• Other revenues—$1.0 million higher.
The above in
creases were partially offset by decreases in Other Taxes, Licenses, Permits and Fees, and Charges for Services.
Also contributing to the large variance is the City’s practice of analyzing and projecting revenues throughout the fiscal year but not typically adjusting the original revenue budget to matc h projections. In addition, the City does not generally budget for uncertain or one‐time revenues, such as Excess Educational Revenue Augmentation Funds (ERAF) and reimbursements, including adjusting the budget after receiving the revenue. Both of these practices can result in budgeted amounts that are much lower than actual amoun
ts.
Actual expenditures for the General Fund are $34.4 million lower than the final amended budget for the fiscal year. The variance is primarily due to continued salary and benefit savings incurred from vacant positions and budgeted amounts for limited‐period funding, one‐time programs, and nondepartment costs being included in the final amended budget amounts, yet these types of costs are not typically fully expended within on
e year. It is anticipated that as the City ramps up
recruitment of newly authorized positions and recently vacated existing positions, actual costs of salary and benefits will be more in line with budget amounts.
As a result of the higher than expected or budgeted revenues and expenditure budgets not being fully expended, the General Fund has experienced a positive budget versus actual variance.
CAPITAL ASSETS AND DEBT ADMINISTRATION
Capital Assets
The City’s capital assets for its governmental and business‐type activities as of June 30, 2024 was $713.2 million (net of accumulated depreciation and amortization). Capital assets include land, leased assets, construction in progress, buildings, improvements other than buildings, machinery and equipment, subscription‐based IT arrangement (SBITA) assets, and infrastructure. The total net increase in the City’s capital assets as of June 30, 2024 is $30.3 million or 4.4%. 19 The change in capital assets, net of depreciation, for the governmental and business‐type activities are as follows:

Additional information about the City’s capital assets is discussed in Note 6 to the financial statements.
20 Debt Administration
As of June 30, 2024, the City had $163.6 million of outstanding noncurrent liabilities relat ed to
governmental activities and $12.5 million related to business‐type activities, for a total of $176.1 million. Noncurrent liabilities outstanding as of June 30, 2024, with a comparison to prior year and the net change, are as follows:
2024 2023 Net Change
Revenue bonds $ 87,574 $ 89,885 $ (2,311) Compensated absences 11,911 11,258 653 Landfill containment 47,963 46,297 1,666 Claims liabilities 11,794 11,343 451 Lease liabilities 3,946 3,817 129 SBITA liabilties 395 1,308 (913) Total governmental activities debt 163,583 163,908 (325) Business‐type activities 12,499 13,648 (1,149) Total $ 176,082 $ 177,556 $ (1,474) De
bt Outstanding
(Dollars in Thousands)
The decrease
s to noncurrent liabilities were primarily due to the reduction of SBITA liabilities and scheduled debt service payments offset partially by the increase in Landfill Containment and Compensated Absences.
The City Charter limits bonded indebtedness for General Obligation bonds to 15.0% of the total assessed valuation of all real and personal pr operty within the City. The City has no general obligation debt outstanding as of June 30, 2024 and has maintained its underlying “AAA” issuer credit rating from Standard & Poor’s since July 2014.
Additional information regarding the City’s noncurrent liabilities is discussed in Note 7 to the financial statements.
ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR’S BUDGET AND RATES
• The local economy has fully recovered to prepandemic levels. However, local economic indicators are projecting stable revenues with slower‐paced growth anticipated in Fiscal Year 2024‐25. Uncertainty with inflation, interest rates, national and state economic policies, and geopolitical conflicts all contribute to the projected slower‐paced growth. 21 • Overall, property taxes for the City are expected to increase in the upcoming fiscal year based on increases in property taxes from new development, change in ownership, and the
2.0% increase in assessed value due to the positive California Consumer Price Index. • Sales tax revenue is expected to be about the sam e as the current fiscal year. However, a moderate increase is projected for future years.
• Business License revenue is projected to experience a 7.4% decline compared to the current fiscal year due to known and potential layoffs. Utility Users Tax (UUT) is projected to be
29.9% higher than the current fiscal year, mainly because of a potential refund claim that City has re
corded as payable in Fiscal Year 2023‐24, which significantly lowered the current year revenue. Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) is projected to increase by 7.7% compared to the current year. This increase is primarily due to one hotel’s failure to remit taxes in the current fiscal year for three quarters, which the City did not record as TOT revenue in the current fiscal year. Business travel has stabilized and is expected to remain stable in the near future, leading us to anticipate a moderate increase in TOT revenue. • Cost‐of‐service
studies were conducted for all three utility funds during the past year. As such, rates were adjusted to reflect the cost of services rather than across‐the‐board rate increases. The Fiscal Year 2024‐25 adopted rates for the Water, Wastewater, and Solid Waste Management Funds varied due to rate structure adjustments being phased in over multiple years, with impacts differing based on account type and billed usage.
All of these factors were considered in preparing the City’s budget for Fiscal Year 2024‐25.

City of Mountain View
Notes to Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The City of Mountain View (City) was incorporated in 1902 an d is a charter city, having had its charter granted
by the State of California in 1952. The City operates under the Council‐Manager form of government and provides the following services: public safety (police, fire, and paramedic), public works, utilities (water, wastewater,
and solid waste), community development, cultural and recreation services and administration and support services.
A. Reporting Entity
The accompanying basic financial statements present the financial activities 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 acco
untable. 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. The City's component units, which are described below, are all blended.
The Mountain View Shoreline Reg
ional Park Community (Shoreline Community) ‐ is a separate government entity created for the purpose of developing approximately 1,550 acres of bayfront lands. The Shoreline Community’s governing board is the same as the City and the City’s management has operational responsibility for the Shoreline Community. Its financial activities have been blended in the accompanying financial statements in the Shoreline Regional Park Community Special Revenue Fund and the non major debt service funds. Separate financial statements for the Shoreline Community are also included as a component of the City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report.
The City of Mountain View Capital Improvements Financing Authority (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 Financing Authority’s governing board is the same as the City, the Financing Authority provides services solely to the City, and a financial benefit/burden relationship exists between the City and the Financing Authority. Its financial activities have been blended in the accompanying financial statements in the nonmajor debt service funds. Separate financial statements for the Financing Authority are not required and therefore, not issued.
B. Basis of Presentation
The City’s basic financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the acknowledged standard setting body for establishing accounting and financial reporting standards followed by governmental entities. These standards require that the financial statements described below be presented.
Government‐Wide Financial Statements
The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities display information about the primary government (the City and its 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. 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.

Notes to Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) B. Basis of Presentation (Cont
inued)
Government‐Wide Financial Statements (Continued)
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 associated with a program or f unction 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 programs, (b) grants and contributions that arise from mandatory and voluntary nonexchange transactions with other government s, organizations, or individuals that are restricted for use in a particular program, and (c) grants and contributions of capital assets or resources that are restricted for capital purposes. Revenues that are not classified as program revenues, including 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 comp
onent units. 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 fu
nds are aggregated and reported as nonmajor funds.
Proprietary fund operating revenues, such as charges for services, result from exchange transactions associated with the principal activity of the fund. Exchange transactions are those in which each party receives and gives up essentially equal values. Nonoperating revenues, such as contributions and investment income, result from nonexchange transactions or ancillary activities.
C. Major Funds
Major funds are defined as funds that have either assets combined with deferred outflow of resources, liabilities combined with deferred inflow of resources, revenues or expenditures/expenses equal to 10.0 percent of their fund‐type total and 5.0 percent of the grand tota l of governmental and enterprise funds.
Major governmental and business‐type funds are identified and presented separately in the fund financial statements. All other funds, called nonmajor funds, are combined and reported in a single column, regardless of their fund‐type. The General Fund is always a major fund, and th e City may select other funds it believes should be presented as major funds.
The City reports major governmental funds in the basic financial statements as follows:
General Fund ‐ This is the City’s primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the general government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
Shoreline Regional Park Community Fund (Special Revenue) ‐ This fund receives property tax revenues on properties within the Shoreline Community. The fund accounts for the revenues and expenditures of the Shoreline Community.
Housing Fund (Special Revenue) ‐ This fund accounts for fees paid by developers to provide for increasing and improving the supply of extremely low, very low, low, and moderate income housing (affordable housing).

For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) C. Major Funds (Continued)
General Capital
Projects Fund (Capital Projects) ‐ This fund accounts for all capital improvement projects activities not funded from proprietary funds.
Park Land Dedication Capital Projects Fund (Capital Projects) ‐ This fund accounts for revenues derived from fees on residential subdivisions used for park and recreation projects.
The City reports all of its enterprise funds as major funds in the accompanying financial statements:
Water Fund – This fund accounts for the revenues and expenses related to the operation, maintenance and capital outlay required to supply, distribute and meter water. The City has agreements with the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission and the Santa Clara Valley Water District for the supply of wholesale water.
Wastewater Fund – This fund accounts for the revenues and expenses related to the operation, maintenance and capital outlay required to provide wastewater services. The City has an agreement with the City of Palo Alto to purchase treatment capacity at the Palo Alto Regional Water Quality Control Plant (Treatment Plant).
Solid Waste Fund – This fund accounts for the revenues and expenses related to disposal services, recycling operations, other solid waste operations, capital outlay and certain costs related to maintenance of the closed landfill sites. Collection operations are provided by an outside private contractor. The City has an agreement with the Cities of Palo Alto and Sunnyvale for disposal transfer capacity at the Sunnyvale Materials and Recovery Transfer (SMaRT®) Station.
The City also reports the fo
llowing fund types:
Internal Service funds – These funds account for equipment maintenance and replacement, workers’ compensation insurance, unemployment self‐insurance, liability self‐insurance, retirees’ health plan, and employee benefits plan, all of which are provided to other funds on a cost‐reimbursement basis.
Custodial funds – These funds are fiduciary funds used to report fiduciary activities that are not required to be reported in pension (and other employee benefit) trust funds, investment trust funds, or private purpose trust funds. These include custodial balances and activities of the labor unions, flexible benefits, and Center for Performing Arts. The financial activities of these funds are excluded from the government‐wide financial statements, but are presented in separate fiduciary fund financial statements.
D. Basis of Accounting
The government‐wide, proprietary fund, 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.
53 City of Mountain View
Notes to Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) D. Basis of Accounting (Continued)
Governmental funds are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under this method, revenues are recognized when measurable and available.
The City considers all revenues, except sales taxes, reported in the governmental funds to be available if the revenues are collected within sixty days after fiscal year end. A ninety‐day availability period is used for sales taxes in order to include the State of California (State) final distribution of sales taxes revenue for the fiscal year. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for principal and interest on long‐term debt, claims and judgments, landfill containment costs and compensated absences, which are recognized as expenditures to the extent they have matured and are due and payable at year end. Capital asset acquisitions are reported as expenditures in governmental funds. Proceeds from long‐term debt issuance and leases financing are reported as other financing sources.
Non‐exchange transactions, in which the City gives or receives value without directly receiving or giving equal value in exchange, include property taxes, grants, entitlements and donations. On the accrual basis, revenues from property taxes are recognized in the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied. Revenues from grants, entitlements and donations are recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements have been satisfied.
Those revenues susceptible to accrual are property taxes, sales taxes, certain intergovernmental revenues, transient occupancy taxes, utility user taxes, earned grant entitlements, special assessments due within the current fiscal year and investment revenue. All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when cash is received.
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 general revenues if necessary.
Certain indirect costs are included in program expenses reported for individual functions and activities.
As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated in the preparation of the government‐ wide financial statements. Exceptions to this general rule are charges between the government’s business‐ type activities and various other functions of the government. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported for the various functions concerned.
Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods or services, 2) operating grants and contributions and 3) capital grants and contributions, including special assessments.
Internally dedicated resources and taxes are reported as general revenues rather than as program revenues. 54 City of Mountain View
Notes to Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) D. Basis of Accounting (Continued)
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund’s principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the City’s enterprise funds and internal service funds are charges to customers for sales and services. The City also recognizes as operating revenue the portion of connection fees intended to recover the cost of connecting new customers to the system. Operating expenses for enterprise funds and internal service funds include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City’s policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed.
E. Inventory
Inventories are valued at cost (first in, first out). Inventories of the General Fund consist of expendable supplies held for consumption. The cost is recorded as expenditures at the time individual inventory items are consumed. Inventories of the Shoreline Golf Links Nonmajor Special Revenue Fund consist of merchandise held for resale to consumers. The cost is recorded as expenditures at the time individual inventory items are sold.
F. Property Taxes
The County of Santa Clara (County) assesses properties and it bills, collects, and distributes property taxes to the City. The County remits to the City the entire amount levied and handles all delinquencies, retaining interest and penalties. Secured and unsecured property taxes are levied on July 1 for the fiscal year.
Secured property tax becomes a lien on January 1 and is due in two installments, on November 1 and February 1. It becomes delinquent after December 10 and April 10, respectively. Unsecured property tax bills are distributed in July and are due upon receipt, and become delinquent after 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 and are secured by liens on the property owner. Property tax revenues are recognized by the City in the fiscal year they are levied, provided they become available as defined above.
G. Compensated Absences
Compensated absences, representing earned but unused vacation, sick leave pay and related costs, are reported in the Statement of Net Position. All compensated absences and related costs are accrued when incurred in the government‐wide and proprietary fund financial statements. A liability for these amounts is reported in the governmental funds only if they become due and payable. The City uses the vesting method for the calculation of compensated absences.

Notes to Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) H. Deferred Outflows and Inflows of Resources
In addition to assets, the Statement of Net Position and Balance Sheets report a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, 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.
In addition to liabilities, the Statement of Net Position and Balance Sheets report 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.
I. Pension and Other Postemployment Benefits (OPEB) Items For purposes of measuring the net pension liability and net OPEB liability, deferred outflows/inflows of resources related to pension and OPEB, pension and OPEB expenses, information about the fiduciary net position of the City’s Pension and OPEB plans, and additions to/deductions from the plans’ fiduciary net positions have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) and the California Employer’s Retiree Benefit Trust (CERBT) Fund Program, respectively. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. CalPERS plan member contributions are recognized in the period in which the contributions are due. Investments are reported at fair value. The governmental activities’ share of net pension liability and net OPEB liability are typically liquidated by the General Fund.
J. Effects of New GASB Pronouncements
The City adopted new accounting standards in order to conform to the following Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statements in Fiscal Year 2023‐24:
1. In April 2022, the GASB issued Statement No. 99, Omnibus 2022. The objectives of this statement are to enhance comparability in accounting and financial reporting and to improve the consistency of authoritative literature by addressing (a) practice issues that been identified during implementation and application of certain GASB Statements and (b) accounting and financial reporting for financial guarantees. Implementation of these requirements did not have a significant impact on the City’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024.
2. In June 2022, the GASB issued Statement No. 100, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections – An Amendment of GASB Statement No. 62. The primary objective of this statement is to enhance accounting and financial reporting requirements for accounting changes and error corrections to provide more understandable, reliable, relevant consistent, and comparable information for making decisions or assessing accountability. The requirements of this statement did not have a significant impact on the City's financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. 56 City of Mountain View
Notes to Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) J. Effects of New GASB Pronouncements (Continued)
The City is currently analyzing its accounting practices to identify the potential impact on the financial statements for the GASB statements as follows:
1. In June 2022, the GASB issued Statement No. 101, Compensated Absences. The objective of this statement is to better meet the information needs of financial statement users by updating the recognition and measurement guidance for compensated absences. That objective is achieved by aligning the recognition and measurement guidance under a unified model and by amending certain previously required disclosures. The requirements of this statement are going to be effective for the City’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2025.
2. In December 2023, the GASB issued Statement No. 102, Certain Risk Disclosures. The objective of this Statement is to provide users of government financial statements with essential information about risks related to a government’s vulnerabilities due to certain concentrations or constraints. The requirements of this statement are going to be effective for the City’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2025.
3. In April 2024, the GASB issued Statement No. 103, Financial Reporting Model Improvements. The objective of this Statement is to improve key components of the financial reporting model to enhance its effectiveness in providing information that is essential for decision making and assessing a government’s accountability. The requirements of this statement are going to be effective for the City’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2026.
K. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures/expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NOTE 2 BUDGETS AND BUDGETARY ACCOUNTING
A. Budgets and Budgetary Accounting
The City adopts an annual budget on or before June 30 for the ensuing fiscal year for the General Fund and all Special Revenue Funds except for the Deferred Assessments Fund.
No annual budgets are adopted for the Debt Service Funds. Repayment of the debt is authorized by the adoption of the indenture provisions for the life of the debt.
The Storm Drain Construction and Park Land Dedication Capital Projects Funds are budgeted annually. All other Capital Projects Funds are budgeted on a project basis. Such budgets are based on a project time frame, rather than a fiscal year operating time frame, whereby unused appropriations continue until project completion.
Budget appropriations become effective on each July 1. The City Council may amend the budget during the fiscal year. The legal level of budgetary control has been established at the fund and department level.
Appropriations lapse at the end of the fiscal year to the extent they have not been expended or encumbered. 57 City of Mountain View
Notes to Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 2 BUDGETS AND BUDGETARY ACCOUNTING (Continued)
A. Budgets and Budgetary Accounting (Continued)
All Governmental Fund Type annual budgets are presented on a basis consistent with the basic financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Budgeted revenue amounts represent the original budget modified by adjustments authorized during the fiscal year. Budgeted expenditure amounts represent original appropriations adjusted for supplemental appropriations during the fiscal year and reappropriated amounts for encumbrances, grants, and donations outstanding at the end of each prior fiscal year.
The City Council must approve appropriation increases to departmental budgets; however, management may transfer Council‐approved budgeted amounts within fund and departmental expenditure classifications. Judgments, settlements and certain accrual entries are not subject to budgetary control and expenditures exceeding budget due to these items do not constitute a violation of budget policy or control.
Supplemental appropriations were approved during the course of the fiscal year as needed.
B. Encumbrance Accounting
Under encumbrance accounting, purchase orders, contracts and other commitments for the expenditure of monies are recorded in order to reserve that portion of the applicable appropriation. Encumbrance accounting is employed as an extension of formal budgetary integration. Encumbrances outstanding at fiscal year‐end are automatically reappropriated for inclusion in the following fiscal year’s budget.
NOTE 3 CASH AND INVESTMENTS
The City pools cash from all sources and all funds, except restricted cash and investments, so the pool of funds can be invested consistent with goals for safety and liquidity, while maximizing yield. Cash is pooled so individual funds can make expenditures at any time.
A. Policies
For custodial credit risk, California law requires banks and savings and loan institutions to pledge government securities with a fair value of 110.0 percent of the City’s cash on deposit, or first trust deed mortgage notes with a fair value of 150.0 percent of the deposit, as collateral for these 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 ahead of general creditors of the institution.
The City invests in individual investments 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. In order to increase security, the City employs the trust department of a bank as the custodian of certain City managed investments, regardless of their form.
The City’s investments are carried at fair value. The carrying value of these investments are periodically adjusted to reflect their fair value at each fiscal year end and the effects of these adjustments are included as income or expense for that fiscal year.
Investment income is allocated among funds on the basis of average daily cash and investment balances in each fund, unless there are specific legal or contractual requirements to do otherwise. 58 City of Mountain View
Notes to Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
NOTE 3 CASH AND INVESTMENTS (Conti
nued)
A. Policies (Continued)
Cash and investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents in the proprietary fund statements of cash flows because these assets are highly liquid and are expended to liquidate liabilities arising during the fiscal year.
B. Classification
Cash and investments are classified in the financial statements based on whe ther or not their use is
restricted under the terms of debt instruments. Investments are carried at fair value as of June 30, 2024.
Cash and investments are as follows (dollars in thousands):
Cash and investments as of June 30, 2024, consist of the following (dollars in thousands):
C. Investments Authorized by th
e California Government Code and the City’s Investment Policy The California Government Code and the City’s Investment Policy authorize the investment types in the following table, provided the credit ratings of the issuers are acceptable to the City; and approved perce
ntages and maximum maturities are not exceeded. The table also identifies certain provisions of the California Government Code, or the City’s Investment Policy where the City’s Investment Policy is more restrictive, that addresses interest rate risk, credit risk and concentration of credit risk. This table does not address investments of debt proceeds held
by bond trustee that are governed by the provisions of debt agreements of the City, rather than the general provisions of the California Government Code or the City’s Investment Policy.

Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the se nsitivity of its fair value
to changes in market interest rates. One of the ways the City manages its exposure to interest rate risk is by purchasing a combination of shorter term and longer term investments and by timing cash flows fro m maturities so a portion of the portfolio is maturing or coming close to maturity evenly over time as necessary to provide the cash flow and liquidity needed for operations. The City monitors the interest rate risk inherent in its portfolio by measuring the modified duration (modified duration is a measure of a fixed income’s cash flows using present values, weighted for cash flows as a percentage of the investments’ full price) of its portfolio. The City monitors interest rate risk inherent in investments held by the trustee by using specific identification.

The City’s interest rate risk by investment type and fair value is as follows (dollars in thousands):
Through the City’s Investments Policy, the City manages its exposure to fair value losses arising from increasing interest rates by limiting the modified duration of its investment por tfolio to within 15.0 percent of the modified duration of a benchmark portfolio as defined in the Investment Policy. As of June 30, 2024, the allowed modified duration ranged from 1.62 to 2.19 years and the actual is within this range.
Investments in municipal bonds shown above represent the City’s in vestment in the Shoreline Regional Park Community 2018 Revenue Bonds. The balance as of June 30, 2024, is stated at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.

LAIF is part of the State ’s Pooled Money Investment Account
(PMIA). The total balance of the PMIA is approximately $178.0 billion as of June 30, 2024. Of that amount,

F. Credit Risk
Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. The City’s Investment Policy is to apply the prudent investor’s standard in managing the overall portfolio. Th
e standard states that investments shall not be made for speculation but shall be made with judgment and care, which investors of prudence, discretion and intelligence exercise considering the safety of principal, liquidity, and return on investment in this priority order. As of June 30, 2024, the City’s investment in money market mutual funds, and supranational securities are rated AAA by Standard & Poor’s.
U.S. agency se
curities are rated AA by Standard & Poor’s. The medium‐term notes are rated between A and AA by Standard & Poor’s. The U.S. Treasury obliga tions are exempt from credit rating disclosure. The Municipal Bonds ‐ Shoreline Regional Park Community 2018 Revenue Bonds are rated A+ by Standard & Poor’s. The Local Agency Investment Fund was not rated as of June 30, 2024.
G. Concentration of Credit Risk
The City’s Investment Policy regarding the amount that can be invested in any one issuer is stipulated by the California Government Code. However, the City is required to disclose investments that represent a concentration of 5.0 percent or more of investments in any one issuer other than U.S. Treasury obligations, money market mutual funds and external investment pools. As of June 30, 2024, those investments held by the City consisted

H. Fair Value Hierarchy
The City categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure fair value of the assets. Level 1 in
puts are quoted prices in an active market for identical assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observable inputs; and Level 3 inputs are significant unobservable inputs. As of June 30, 2024, All of the City’s investments are measured using level 2 inputs, exce pt for investments in LAIF and money market mutual funds, which are not subject to the fair value hierarchy. Investments measured using level 2 inputs are valued using prices determined by the use of matrix pricing techniques maintained by the pricing vendors for these investments. Matrix pricing is used to value investments based on the investments’ relationship to benchmark quoted prices.

As of Jun

The City engages in programs designed to encourage construction or improvement of housing for persons with extremely low to moderate income or other such projects. Under these programs, grants or loans are provided under favorable terms to homeowners or developer
s who agree to spend these funds in accordance with the City’s terms. The City does not expect to collect these loans in the near term, and most of the loan terms are deferred to the future. Any proceeds collected are restr icted by grant requirements and thus these balances have been offset by a restriction of fund balance in the fund financial statements. Due to the nature of the repayment structures of the City’s housing loans, the City is not accruing interest on these loans. Interest revenue is recognized upon receipt.
These loan program
s are funded by Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) funds, Home Investment Partnership Act (HOME) grant funds, Housing Fund, General Fund, and former Mountain View Revitalization Authority (Authority). With the dissolution of the Authority effective January 31, 2012, the City became the Housing Successor Agency. The balances of the loans were transferred to the Ho using Successor Special Revenue Fund (Housing Successor) of the City.

NOTE 6 CAPITAL ASSETS
All capital assets, including intangible assets, are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available. Donated capital assets, donated works of art and similar items, and capital assets received in a service concession arrangement are valued at their acquisition value. The City defines capital assets as assets with an initial individual cost of more than $100,000 for land and infrastructure, $25,000 for buildings and improvements other than buildings, and $5,000 for others, and an estimated useful life in excess of two years.
Depreciation is provided using the straight‐line method, which means the cost of the asset is divided by its expected useful life in years and the result is charged to expense each fiscal year until the asset is fully depreciated. The City has assigned the useful lives to capital assets as follows:
Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed.

NOTE 8 PENSION PLANS (Continued)
A. General Information about
the Pension Plans (Continued)
Contributions – Section 20814(c) of the California Public Employees’ Retirement Law requires the employer contribution rates for all public employers to be determined on an annual basis by the CalPERS actuary and shall be effective on the July 1 following notice of a change in the rate. Th e actuarially determined rate is the projected amount necessary to finance the costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. The City is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees. For the purpose of increasing the funded status of the Plans, the City contributed $4.09 million and $3.04 million in excess of the actuarially determined contributions for the Miscellaneous and Safety Plans, respectively, during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024.
B. Net Pension Liability
The City’s net pension liabil
ity for each Plan is measured as the total pension liability, less the pension plan’s fiduciary net position. The net pension liability of each of the Plans is measured as of June 30, 2023, using an annual actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2022 using standard update p rocedures. A summary of principal assumptions and methods used to determine the net pension liability is shown below.
Actuarial Assumptions – The total pension liabilities in the June 30, 2022 actuarial valuations were determined using actuarial assumptions as follows:
All other actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2022 actuarial valuation were based on th e 2021 CalPERS Experience Study for the period from 2001 to 2019, including updates to salary increase, mortality and retirement rates. Further details of the 2021 CalPERS Experience Study can be found on the CalPERS website under Forms and Publications.
Change of Assumptions – There were no assumption chan ges in measurement period 2023.

NOTE 8 PENSION PLANS (Continued)
B. Net Pension Liability (Continued)
Discount Rate – The disc
ount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 6.90 percent. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that the contributions from plan members will be made at the current member contribution rates and tha t contributions from employers will be made at statutorily required rates, actuarially determined. Based on those assumptions, the plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long‐term expected rate of return on plan investments was applied to all periods of projected bene
fit payments to determine the total pension liability.
The long‐term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building‐block method in which expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflati on) are developed for each major asset class.
In determining the long‐term expected rate of return, CalPERS took into account both short‐term and long‐ term market return expectations. Using historical returns of all of 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 expense of 10 basis points.
The expected real rates of return by asset class are as follows:
Assumed Asset
Asset Class Allocation Real Return (1, 2)
Global Equity ‐ cap‐weighted 30.00% 4.54%
Global Equity ‐ non‐cap‐weighted 12.00% 3.84%
Private Equity 13.00% 7.28%
Treasury 5.00% 0.27%
Mortgage‐backed Securities 5.00% 0.50%
Investment Grade Corporates 10.00% 1.56%
High Yield 5.00% 2.27%
Emerging Marke t Debt 5.00% 2.48%
Private Debt 5.00% 3.57%
Real Assets 15.00% 3.21%
Leverage ‐5.00% ‐0.59%
Total 100%
(1) ‐ An expected inflation of 2.30% used for this period. (2) ‐ Figures are based on the 2021 Asset Liability Management study. 83 City of Mountain View

NOTE 9 OTHER POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
A. General Information about the OPE B Plan
Plan Descriptions – By Council resolution and through agreements with its labor units, the City provides certain health care benefits for retirees (spouse and dependents are not included for CalPERS Miscellaneous employees, but are included for CalPERS Safety employees in the CalPERS Health Program governed by the Public Employees’ Medical and Hospital Care Act (PEHMCA)) under a single employer defi ned benefit OPEB
plan. In December 2008, the City entered into an agreement with CalPERS to participate in the CERBT, an agent multiple‐employer other postemployment benefits plan, to fund the City’s OPEB. CERBT, administrated by CalPERS, is managed by an appointed board not under the control of the City Council.
CERBT
issues a publicly available financial report that can be found on the CalPERS website at www.calpers.ca.gov.
The City also offers a Defined Contribution (DC) Plan to eligible miscellaneous employees. If an employee elects to participate in the DC Plan, the City makes contributions on behalf of the empl oyee into a Health Savings Account (HSA). Employees who have elected the DC Plan are not included in the City’s actuarial valuation for OPEB.
Employees Covered – Employees covered by the benefit terms as of June 30, 2023, the most recent actuarial valuations info

B. Net OPEB Liability
The City’s net OPEB liability is measured as the total OPEB liability, less the OPEB plan’s fiduciary net position.
The net OPEB liability is measured as of June 30, 2023 using an annual actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2023.
Actuarial Assumptions – The total OPEB liability as of June 30, 2023 were determined using actuarial assumptions as follows:
(1) Demographic actuarial assumptions used are based on the 2021 CalPERS Experience Study for the period from 1997 to 2019, except for using the MacLeod Watts Scale 2022 applied generationally from 2015 as the basis to project future morality improvements.
Change in Assumptions – During the measurement period 2023, the healthcare cos trend rates were changed to 6.5 percent in 2025, fluctuating down to 3.9 percent by 2075, Mortality was changed to based on 2021 CalPERS Experience Study, and Mortality Improvement was changed to based on MW Scale 2022.
Discount Rate ‐ The discount rate used to measure the total OPEB liability is 5.6 percent. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that the City's contribution will be made equal to the actuarially determined contribution. Based on those assumptions, the OPEB plan's fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected OPEB payments for current active and inactive employees. Therefore, the long‐term expected rate of return on OEPB plan investments is applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total OPEB Liability.

NOTE 10 RISK MANAGEMENT
The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts, errors and omissions, injuries to e mployees or others, and unemployment. The City has established various self‐insurance programs to account for and finance its uninsured risks of loss. Under the self‐insurance programs, the City retains the risk of loss up to a maximum of $1.0 million for general liability and property claims, $750,000 for workers' com pensation claims with statutory
excess insurance and actual costs incurred for unemployment.
For general liability claims, the City has excess liability coverage through the Authority for California Cities Excess Liabilities (ACCEL) to cover the risk of loss for claims in excess of $1.0 million per incident. ACCEL is a joint powers authority of mediu
m‐sized California municipalities, which pools catastrophic general liability, automobile liability and public officials’ errors and omissions losses. Amounts of settlements have not exceeded insurance coverage in the past three years.
Charges to the General Fund and other insured funds are determined from an analysis of self‐ insured claims costs and reserve requirements and are recorded as operating expenditures or expenses of such funds and operating revenues of the various internal service funds.
Estimated liabilities are recorded for claims in cases where such amounts are reasonably determinable and where the liability is likely for
claims which are incurred through the end of the fiscal year but not reported until after that date. The estimated liability is determined based upon historical claims data discounted at 2.5 percent annually and independently determined estimates of the amounts needed to pay prior and current year claims.

NOTE 13 NET POSITION AND FUND BALANCES
A. Net Position
Net position is the excess of all assets and deferred outflows of resources over all liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, regardless of fund. Net position is divided into three captions on the S tatement of Net Position. These captions apply only to net position, which is determined at the Government‐wide level and proprietary funds and are described as follows:
Net investment in capital assets – This caption groups all capital assets, including infrastructure, into one component of net position. Accumulated depr eciation and the outstanding balances of debt, including debt related deferred outflows and inflows of resources that are attributable to the acquisition, construction or improvement of these assets reduce the balance in this category.

NOTE 13 NET POSITION AND FUND BALANCES (Continued)
A. Net Position (Continued)
Restricted – This caption represents 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 principally include developer fees received for use on capital projects, grant funds, funds restricted for debt service, and funds restricted to low and moderate income housing purposes.
Unrestricted – This caption represents net position of the City not restricted for any project or purpose.
B. Fund Balances
Governmental fund balances represent the assets and deferred outflows of resources less the liabilities and deferred inflows of resources of each fund. Governmental funds report fund balance in classifications based primarily on the extent to which the City is bound to honor constraints on how specific amounts in the funds can be spent. For programs with multiple funding sources, the City prioritizes and expends funds in the following order: Restricted, Committed, Assigned and Unassigned. Each category in the following hierarchy is ranked according to the degree of spending constraint as follows:
Nonspendable fund balances are amounts that cannot be spent because they are either (a) not in spendable form; or (b) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact.
Restricted fund balances have external restrictions imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, laws, regulations, or enabling legislation, which requires the resources to be used only for a specific purpose.
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 only be altered by resolution of the City Council. 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 or its designees and may be changed at the discretion of the City Council or its designees. The City Council has not delegated the authority to make assignments of fund balance. This category also includes residual fund balances 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.
This includes the residual general fund balance and residual fund deficits, if any, of other governmental funds.

C. City of Palo Alto Regional Water Quality Control Plant The City transmits its wastewater for treatment to a system of transmission, treatment and disposal of wastewater (the “Joint System” or “Treatment Plant”) owned and administered by the City of Palo Alto. The Joint System is governed by an agreement between the City of Palo Alto, the City of Mountain View, and the City of Los Altos (the Partners) for the acquisition, construction and maintenance of the Joint System (Agreement). As part of the Agreement, the City purchases treatment capacity at the Treatment Plant. The Agreement provides that the City will purchase capacity through December 31, 2060, and for the City of Palo Alto to set service charges annually with quarterly billings based on estimated use. A reconciliation of actual to estimated charges is completed annually. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, these costs totaled $14.9 million, which is included as a component of cost of sales and services expenses in the Wastewater Enterprise Fund.
The Agreement has been supplemented or amended from time to time. Addenda include provisions for improvements to the Joint System for which debt was issued by the City of Palo Alto and the Partners agreed to pay their share of debt based on capacity rights. Each Partner’s share of debt is included in the annual budget provided by the City of Palo Alto and is billed through the quarterly billings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the City’s share of debt services totaled to $1.0 million.
D. Sunnyvale Material Recovery and Transfer (SMaRT®) Station During Fiscal Year 1992‐93, the City entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the City of Sunnyvale to obtain solid waste and recycling services at the SMaRT® Station.

22. The City entered into a new MOU with the City of Sunnyvale with an effective date of January 1, 2022 and termination date of December 31, 2036. Annual service charges are determined based on actual per‐ ton charges. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, these costs totaled $6.4 million.
E. Education Enhancement Reserve Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) On June 30, 2013, the Shoreline Community entered into an Education Enhancement JPA with the Mountain View Los Altos Unified High School District (MVLAUHSD) and the Mountain View Whisman School District (MVWSD) effective July 1, 2013, for a period of 10 years, superseding any prior agreements dating back to the first such agreement in 2006. The purpose of the Education Enhancement JPA is to create an Education Enhancement Reserve in which funds provided by the Shoreline Community are used to enhance the educational and technology capacity of students in the districts, which will contribute to the availability of a local technology workforce to further the objectives of the Shoreline Community. The agreement provides for minimum annual payments, which commenced with the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, and have increased annually based on growth in property tax revenues in the preceding fiscal year. Each subsequent fiscal year increases based on growth in property tax revenues in the preceding fiscal year. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the Shoreline Community paid a total of $10.7 million in contributions to the school districts, including $6.5 million to MVWSD and $4.2 million to MVLAUHSD.
A one‐year successor agreement was executed in June 2023 for the period of July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024. An amendment was subsequently executed in Oct 2024, extending the agreement through June 30, 2027.

F. Tax Revenue Sharing
Pursuant to an agreement between the City, the Shoreline Community, and the County dated June 22, 2005, the Shoreline Community is annually obligated to pay the County from tax revenues, an amount equal to the County’s total retirement tax override levies and pass‐through an additional amount of taxes that would have been allocated to the County in the absence of the existence of the Shoreline Community. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, $2.4 million and $3.1 million in retirement tax override levies and pass‐through payments, respectively, were paid to the County.
G. Bay Area Water Supply and Conservation Agency Revenue Bonds Surcharge The City contracts with the City and County of San Francisco 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.
Under the 2009 25‐year agreement with the SFPUC, a minimum water delivery level is included. On June 21, 2017, the City entered an agreement to permanently transfer all rights, title and interest of 1.0 MGD of annual Individual Supply Guarantee to the City of East Palo Alto (EPA). After SFPUC approved the agreement, the City received a one‐time payment of $5.0 million in Fiscal Year 2017‐18 from EPA for the 1.0 MGD water rights. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the City made a $4.0 million payment to the SFPUC o meet the City’s minimum water purchase requirement of 8.930 MGD.
In addition, under the agreement, the SFPUC issues revenue bonds and the debt service (which also includes an interest component) is paid for through rates over the life of the bonds. Prior assets under the previous agreement were transferred to the new agreement and assigned a life with an agreed upon rate of return of 5.13 percent.
BAWSCA issued Revenue Bonds (Bonds) in the principal amount of $335.8 million 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.
The City paid its surcharge of $1.3 million during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, which is included as a component of cost of sales and services expenses in the Water Enterprise Fund. The surcharge for Fiscal Year 2024‐25 is estimated to be $1.2 million.

H. Education Revenue Augmentation Fund
In 1992, as a way of solving its own budget shortfalls, the State enacted legislation that shifted partial financial responsibility for funding K‐14 education to local government. Property tax revenues belonging to cities, counties, and special districts were shifted to the Education Revenue Augmentation Fund (ERAF).
When the State shifts more local property tax than required, these funds are returned to cities, counties and special districts and are known as excess ERAF.
In November 2021, the County notified cities that the California School Boards Association and its Education Legal Alliance filed a lawsuit against the Controller of the State of California, disputing the calculation and disbursement of excess ERAF funds. As a result, the County estimates that 20 to 30 percent of ERAF disbursed to all cities over three years is subject to litigation. The County encouraged each agency to reserve 22 percent of the Excess ERAF distribution on an ongoing basis and going back to Fiscal Year 2020‐21. With the 22 percent calculation, the City estimated the amount at risk is approximately $7.1 million. Excess ERAF revenue for Fiscal Year 2024‐25 has been projected at $9.5 million, $2.4 million more than the at‐risk amount. To be conservative, the City recorded a liability of $2.7 million as of June 30, 2024, for potential future payments related to the litigation. The City will continue to evaluate this issue and will determine at each fiscal year‐ end if a payable should be recorded for the litigation. 103

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Board of Directors

Mountain View, California
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the financial statements of the gove rnmental activities and each major fund of the Mountain View Shoreline Regional Park Community (Shoreline Community), a component unit of the City of Mountain View, California (City) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Shoreline Community’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements pres ent fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities and each major fund of the Shoreline Community, as of June 30, 2024, and the respective changes in financial position thereof and the budgetary comparison for the Shoreline Regional Park Community Fund for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing st andards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS) and the standards applicab le to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the Un ited States. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Resp onsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independ ent of the Shoreline Community and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordanc e with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements The Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
