AGENDA REPORT
Department: Planning
Prepared by: Martin Reeder, AICP – Asst. Director of Community Development Meeting Date: Tuesday, November 19, 2024
Approved by: Benjamin A. Martinez, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Conditional Use Permit for the Sale of Beer, Wine, and Distilled Spirits (ABC Type-21) at an Existing Grocery Store (Manolo Farmers Market) located at 303 Highland Avenue.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff Recommends Adoption of the Resolution Entitled, “Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City, California, Approving a Conditional Use Permit for the Sale of Beer, Wine, and Distilled Spirits (ABC Type-21) at an Existing Grocery Store (Manolo Farmers Market) Located at 303 Highland Avenue.”
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on October 7, 2024 and recommended approval of the CUP by unanimous vote of those members present. Two commissioners abstained due to proximity to the project location and one commissioner was absent.
EXPLANATION:
Executive Summary
The applicant (Manolo Farmers Market) proposes to upgrade their existing ABC Type-20 license (off-sale beer and wine) to an ABC Type-21 (off-sale beer, wine, and distilled spirits). Existing and proposed hours of alcohol sales are 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily.
Planning Commission Action
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on October 7, 2024. Six community members spoke in opposition to the project, with three more registering their position, but not wishing to speak. One written public comment was included with the Planning Commission staff report, with another submitted prior to the meeting. All comments are attached as Exhibit I. Ultimately, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the CUP by unanimous vote of those members present (four). Two commissioners abstained due to their properties being within 500 feet of the project area and one commissioner was absent.
Site Characteristics
Manolo Farmers Market is an existing 27,000 square-foot grocery store located on the east side of Highland Avenue between East 2nd Street and East 4th Street in the Minor Mixed-Use Corridor
(MXC-1) zone. The grocery store is located on its own parcel. The site is surrounded by various commercial and residential uses.
The location was previously approved for the sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption within a retail grocery store in 1990 and received an additional CUP approval for extended hours in 2000.
Proposed Use
The business is proposing to sell distilled spirits in addition to the currently-licensed beer and wine for off-site consumption (ABC Type-21 alcohol license). The applicant is proposing to add a distilled spirits shelf located behind the front counter, where only employees will be able to access it. Staff is recommending the distilled spirits be secured in addition to being behind the employee counter (condition of approval).
The location currently has an approved Conditional Use Permit and ABC license for the sale of beer and wine. The previously approved hours for alcohol sales were 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. daily. The applicant’s request for the proposed hours of 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily reflect the current hours of operation at the store. Per the applicant’s floor plan, the area dedicated to alcohol sales is approximately 408 square feet with only one additional fixture (64 square feet) proposed for the sale of distilled spirits. This represents approximately 1.7% of the floor area of the grocery store.
Analysis
Section 18.30.050 of the Land Use Code allows for alcohol sales for off-site consumption with an approved Conditional Use Permit (CUP). Additional requirements for alcohol CUPs include expanded notification, a community meeting, and distance requirements. City Council Policy 707 also regulates alcohol sales in the city.
Hours of Operation for Alcohol Sales
Conditions of approval for alcohol sales reflect what the applicant has requested (7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily).
Mailing
All property owners and occupants within a distance of 660 feet are required to be notified of a public hearing for alcohol-related CUP applications. Notice of this public hearing was sent to 737 occupants and owners.
Community Meeting
Pursuant to Section 18.30.050 (C) of the Land Use Code, a community meeting was held on Monday, July 8, 2024 at 12:00 p.m. at the store. The meeting advertisement is attached (Attachment 8). There were no community members in attendance.
Alcohol Sales Concentration/Location
According to the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC), there are currently four off-sale licenses in census tract 118.02, where a maximum of four are recommended. The applicant holds one of the existing licenses. The census tract is not considered over concentrated with off-site alcohol sales outlets by ABC. No increase in the amount of licenses would occur.
Many of the issues related to off-sale licenses are related to the availability of smaller quantities and cheaper products, most of which are related to businesses not originally subject to a CUP (legal nonconforming). However, businesses with CUPs are limited to the quantity and size of beer bottles (e.g., no sale of single cans or bottles) and the size of wine bottles and their alcoholic content (e.g., containers less than 750 milliliters nor greater than 15% content by volume).
Because the subject business has an existing CUP, it is already subject to standard conditions related to alcohol.
Police Department (PD)
The ABC Risk Assessment provided by PD allocated a total of 11 points, which places it in the Low Risk category (Low Risk is considered 12 points or less). The risk assessment is included as Exhibit F.
Institute for Public Strategies (IPS)
Comments were received from IPS with the following considerations:
1. Require in-person Responsible Beverage Sales and Service (RBSS) training for all staff.
2. Require daily litter removal and timely graffiti removal from areas under control of the licensee.
3. Post in English and Spanish a notice that state law prohibits sales of alcoholic beverages to persons under age 21.
4. Post and maintain signage stating that no open alcoholic beverage containers are allowed on the premises and no loitering is allowed on or in front of the premises.
Staff has included conditions of approval in the attached draft resolution pertaining to all of the above recommendations. IPS comments are included as Exhibit G.
Findings for Approval
The following are the required findings in the attached resolution:
1. Allowable Use: Alcohol sales in conjunction with a grocery store are allowable within the Minor Mixed-Use Corridor zone, pursuant to a CUP, and the proposed use meets the required guidelines in the Land Use Code (LUC) for alcohol sales, as discussed in the staff report. Sales will be incidental to the existing grocery store in a commercial area.
2. General Plan Consistency: Alcohol sales are permitted, subject to a CUP, by the Land Use Code, which is consistent with the General Plan. In addition, a grocery store with alcohol sales is consistent with the Minor Mixed-Use Corridor zone land use designation contained in the Land Use Code and Community Character element of the General Plan.
3. Compatibility, LUC, and Traffic: No expansion of the building is proposed. The proposal involves an existing commercial space, which was previously analyzed for traffic impacts when it was constructed. The site is physically suitable for the type, density, and intensity of use being proposed, including access, utilities, and the absence of physical constraints.
The proposed uses would be incidental to the primary use of a grocery store.
4. No Nuisance: The proposed use will be subject to conditions that limit hours and the manner in which alcohol is sold. In addition, all staff members serving alcohol are required to receive RBSS training.
5. California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA): The proposed project has been reviewed in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has been determined to be categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to Class 1, Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) for which a Notice of Exemption will be filed subsequent to approval of this Conditional Use Permit. The reason for the exemption is that the use is proposed within an existing commercial building, and the use is similar to other commercial uses in the area, which are permitted in the Minor Mixed-Use Corridor zone.
6. Public Convenience and Necessity: The grocery store, a permitted use in the Minor MixedUse Corridor zone, will benefit from the sale of alcohol. The sale of beer, wine, and distilled spirits will contribute to a diversity of local commercial offerings in the area.
Findings for Denial
The following are findings for denial due to nearby businesses that offer off-sale beer, wine, and distilled spirits together:
1. The proposed use is not deemed essential to the public necessity, as there are already four retail outlets in the same census tract that sell alcohol, including the existing license on site.
2. Based on the above finding, public convenience and necessity will not be served by a proposed use of the property for off-site sales of alcoholic beverages pursuant to law.
Conditions of Approval
Standard Conditions of Approval have been included with this permit as well as conditions specific to off-site alcohol sales per Council Policy 707 (hours of operation, employee training, and accessory sales, etc.).
Summary
The proposed use is consistent with the General Plan due to alcohol sales for off-site consumption being a conditionally-allowed use in the Minor Mixed-Use Corridor zone. The addition of distilled spirits to the sale of beer and wine at an existing grocery store will contribute to the diversity of commercial offerings in the area. Conditions requiring compliance with City Council Policy 707 are intended to alleviate concerns relate to area impacts should the CUP be approved.
Options
1. Approve 2024-11 CUP subject to the conditions included in the Resolution and based on the findings included in the Resolution, or findings to be determined by the City Council; or,
2. Deny 2024-11 CUP based on the attached findings, or findings to be determined by the City Council; or,
3. Continue the item to a specific date in order to obtain additional information.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
An application fee of $3,700 was paid with the submittal of the subject CUP. Fees are anticipated to cover the cost of staff review time and processing of the permit.

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY,
CALIFORNIA, APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR THE SALE OF BEER, WINE, AND DISTILLED SPIRITS (ABC TYPE-21) AT AN EXISTING GROCERY STORE (MANOLO FARMERS MARKET) LOCATED AT 303 HIGHLAND AVENUE.
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of National City considered a Conditional Use Permit for off-site sale of beer, wine, and distilled spirits at an existing grocery store (Manolo Farmers Market) located at 303 Highland Avenue; and WHEREAS, at said public hearing the City Council considered the staff report contained in Case File No. 2024-11 CUP maintained by the City and incorporated herein by reference along with evidence and testimony at said hearing; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of National City considered the Conditional Use Permit application at a duly advertised public hearing held on October 7, 2024, at which time the Commission recommended approval of the Conditional Use Permit; and
WHEREAS, this action is taken pursuant to all applicable procedures required by State law and City law.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY,
CALIFORNIA, DOES RESOLVE, DECLARE, DETERMINE, AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1: That the City Council hereby determines the following:
1. The proposed addition of distilled spirits sales is allowable within the applicable zoning district pursuant to a Conditional Use Permit and complies with all other applicable provisions of the Land Use Code because alcohol sales in conjunction with a grocery store are allowable within the Minor Mixed-Use Corridor zone, pursuant to a CUP, and the proposed use meets the required guidelines in the Land Use Code for alcohol sales, as discussed in the staff report. Sales will be incidental to the existing grocery store in a commercial area. Furthermore, alcohol sales (beer and wine) have been approved for sale on site since 1990.
2. The proposed use is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan, because alcohol sales are permitted, subject to a CUP, by the
Land Use Code, which is consistent with the General Plan. In addition, a grocery store with alcohol sales is consistent with the Minor Mixed-Use Corridor zone land use designation contained in the Land Use Code and Community Character element of the General Plan.
3. The design, location, size, and operating characteristics of the proposed activity would be compatible with the existing and future land uses in the vicinity, because no expansion of the building is proposed. The proposal involves an existing commercial space, which was previously analyzed for traffic impacts when it was constructed.
4. The site is physically suitable for the type, density, and intensity of use being proposed, including access, utilities, and the absence of physical constraints, because no expansion of the building is proposed. The proposed uses would be incidental to the primary use of a grocery store.
5. Granting the permit would not constitute a nuisance or be injurious or detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare, or materially injurious to persons, property, or improvements in the vicinity and zone in which the property is located, because the proposed use will be subject to conditions that limit hours and the manner in which alcohol is sold. In addition, all staff members serving alcohol are required to receive RBSS training.
6. The proposed project has been reviewed in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has been determined to be categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to Class 1, Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) for which a Notice of Exemption will be filed subsequent to approval of this Conditional Use Permit. The reason for the exemption is that the use is proposed within an existing commercial building and the use is similar to other commercial uses in the area, which are permitted in the Minor Mixed-Use Corridor zone.
7. The proposed use is deemed essential and desirable to the public convenience or necessity, because the grocery store, a permitted use in the Minor Mixed-Use Corridor zone, will benefit from the sale of alcohol. The sale of beer, wine, and distilled spirits will contribute to a diversity of local commercial offerings in the area.
8. Based on findings 1 through 7 above, public convenience and necessity will be served by a proposed use of the property for the off-site sales of alcoholic beverages in accordance with applicable law and the recommended conditions.
The use, as proposed and conditioned, will operate in harmony with surrounding
uses, will not cause a nuisance, and will benefit the community with a more diverse selection of goods to purchase from the grocer.
Section 2: That the City Council hereby approves the Conditional Use Permit subject to the following conditions:
General
1. This Conditional Use Permit authorizes the sale of beer, wine, and distilled spirits for off-site consumption at an existing grocery store (Manolo Farmers Market) located at 303 Highland Avenue. Plans submitted for permits associated with this project shall conform to Exhibit A, Case File No. 2024.11 CUP, dated 8/29/2024.
2. Unless specifically modified by this resolution, all Conditions of Approval of Planning Commission Resolution No. 20-2000 shall remain in full force and effect.
3. Before this Conditional Use Permit shall become effective, the applicant and the property owner shall both sign and have notarized an Acceptance Form, provided by the Planning Division, acknowledging and accepting all conditions imposed upon the approval of this permit. Failure to return the signed and notarized Acceptance Form within 30 days of its receipt shall automatically terminate the Conditional Use Permit.
The applicant or owner shall also submit evidence to the satisfaction of the Planning Division that a Notice of Restriction on Real Property is recorded with the County Recorder. The applicant or owner shall pay necessary recording fees to the County.
The Notice of Restriction shall provide information that conditions imposed by approval of the Conditional Use Permit are binding on all present or future interest holders or estate holders of the property. The Notice of Restriction shall be approved as to form by the City Attorney and signed by the Director of Community Development prior to recordation.

Environmental Scan for
Proposed Type 21 Alcohol CUP
303 Highland Ave., National City, CA 91950
Conducted: July 3, 2024
Photo of the proposed location
An environmental scan was conducted on Wednesday, July 3, 2024, for a proposed upgrade of an existing Type 20 off-sale alcohol license to a Type 21 at 303 Highland Avenue. The proposed location is a fullscale grocery store surrounded by other commercial uses on Highland Ave., and the streets running parallel and perpendicular to Highland in front of and behind the business are residential.
During a scan of the business and premises, the following was noted:
• There is a liquor store selling beer, wine and distilled spirits 250 feet from the location. • Customers were entering the premises by car and on foot. • The business offered one cooler of wine with the remaining cooler space along the wall devoted to beer. There was also a selection of beer outside the coolers.

Outlet Density
Based on Centers for Disease Control guidelines, alcohol density is defined as the average distance between a person and their closest alcohol retailer. In the map above, the darker the census tract, the less distance a person has to travel to their closest alcohol retailer. The proposed location is defined as “very dense.”
Youth Sensitive Areas
Dino Daycare (approximately 1,050 feet away)
Central Elementary (approximately 2,100 feet away)
Highland Park (approximately 2,100 feet away)
Churches
First Spanish Southern Baptist (approximately 1,050 feet away) is the closest one to this location.
Crime Rate
A request for crime-related information from personnel within the City of National City Police Department should determine whether existing violations against the property or Applicant have occurred that would discourage the issuance of a Type 21 alcohol license.
Considerations
The following are considerations if a CUP is issued:
1. Require that staff and management attend an in-person Responsible Beverage Sales and Service training.
2. Require daily litter removal and timely graffiti removal from areas under control of the licensee.
3. Post in English and Spanish a notice that state law prohibits sales of alcoholic beverages to persons under age 21.
4. Post and maintain signage stating that no open alcoholic beverage containers are allowed on the premises and no loitering is allowed on or in front of the premises.

To Whom It May Concern:
I am submitting this letter to formally object to the pending application for an ABC Type-21 liquor license at 303 Highland Avenue by Manolo Farmers Market. I am the owner of La Casa Liquor, located at 228 Highland Avenue, directly across from the proposed site. As a business owner in this community for over 30 years, I believe that granting an additional Type-21 liquor license in such close proximity would negatively impact the youth of National City.
Although I do not reside in National City, I consider myself deeply connected to the community. Many of my customers have become like family, and I have watched their children grow into adulthood. I take great care to ensure that alcohol is not sold to minors, as I know many of my customers personally and am familiar with their families. This familiarity allows me to prevent underage sales and ensure that alcohol is handled responsibly in my store.
I am concerned that a larger business such as Manolo Farmers Market, with many employees and multiple checkout lines, would not be able to exercise the same level of oversight. In a store of that size, minors may find it easier to purchase alcohol or engage in theft. By contrast, in my smaller store, I can monitor all activity, and the liquor is kept securely behind the counter.
It is my firm belief that increasing access to alcohol in this community could harm our youth, who already face significant challenges. Many young people here are balancing school with work to help support their families. The availability of alcohol could contribute to distractions, higher dropout rates, and potential increases in crime. I have personally invested time and resources into supporting families and youth in this community, and I am deeply committed to their well-being.
For these reasons, I respectfully urge you to deny the liquor license application for Manolo Farmers Market.
Sincerely,
Salwan Nafsu
Owner, La Casa Liquor

CAUTION: This email originated from outside your organization. Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders.
Greetings!
My family has lived in National City on 3rd street for many years, since the early 1940's. My mother grew up in the house on the corner of 3rd and G. She worked for the Chamber of Commerce for many years and our family has been very involved in the community for many years (i.e., Maytime Band review, Las Palmas Lifeguard/Swim Instructor, etc.). The property is very close to Manolo, Sierra Cafe and all other businesses in this area.
The noise level and traffic has increased significantly over the past 6 years causing concern. People drive fast down the road, while the STOP sign that was added to G street has helped but there are still kids driving down the road with loud electric motor bicycles. In addition, Manolo has food trucks parking on their parking lot and play live music until late in the evening. Last Sunday 9/29, the music was playing until after 11pm.
The Spirit license for Manolo will further exacerbate the noise levels and disturbances. With the food trucks, I can see people purchasing hard liquor (i.e., Spirits) and taking the alcohol to the food trucks and drinking there on site. This could create disagreements or potential fights, more car accidents at that intersection, etc.
There is already a liquor store right on the corner next to the laundromat. There are no issues that I'm aware of that have happened at the liquor store. The patrons will drive to the liquor store, pick up the liquor and drive away, drinking elsewhere. This is much of a better situation than people purchasing and consuming the liquor right there on site.
Note in addition, many neighbors including ourselves have voiced our concerns around the restaurants (Sierra Cafe) daily practices of jet spraying their property at about 4pm. They also, at times, run a leaf blower as early as 5 or 6am on Saturdays or Sundays. This also creates another disturbance.
Thanks for your consideration and hearing the Tax Paying Residents concerns! The Rapozo Ohana

BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
On August 21, 2023, the Planning Commission Recommended that the City Council Adopt the Ordinance Amending Title 18 of the Municipal Code. The City Council introduced the Ordinance at its meeting of October 15, 2024.
EXPLANATION:
The Focused General Plan Update adopted in June of this year included a new zoning overlay district (Mixed-Use Overlay), which applies to the area around East 17th Street and on Roosevelt Avenue west of the Mile of Cars District. As part of the adoption of amendments to Title 18 of the Municipal Code, a new chapter was created, reviewed, and vetted by staff that included the regulations for the Mixed-Use Overlay. However, it was not included in the final agenda packet that went to the City Council this year due to a clerical error. The City Council initiated this followup Code amendment so that the new chapter can be added to the Zoning Code as originally intended.

Approved by: Benjamin A. Martinez, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Amendment to the 2024 Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP).
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution Entitled, “Resolution of the City Council of the City of National City, California, Approving an Amendment to the Transnet Local Street Improvement Program of Projects for National City for Fiscal Years 2022, 2023 and 2024 to Increase Local Transnet Funding for Street Resurfacing (NC03) in the Amount of $500,000 through a Transfer of Funds from Traffic Signal Install/Upgrade (NC04).”
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
Not Applicable.
EXPLANATION:
On November 4, 2004, the voters of San Diego County approved the San Diego Transportation Improvement Program Ordinance and Expenditure Plan (04-01) extension. The TransNet Extension Ordinance provides that SANDAG, acting as the Regional Transportation Commission, shall approve a multi-year program of projects submitted by local jurisdictions identifying those transportation projects eligible to use transportation sales tax (TransNet) funds.
On June 4, 2024, per Resolution No. 2024-59, City Council adopted the 2024 Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP) for National City projects for fiscal years 2025 through 2029.
Consistent with SANDAG Board Policy No. 031 and the TransNet Extension Ordinance, local agencies are allowed to make amendments to the RTIP on a quarterly basis. Amendments may consist of adding new projects, increasing funding for projects and/or transferring funds between projects. City Council authorization is required for all RTIP amendments.
Staff is requesting City Council authorization to submit an RTIP Amendment No. 13 as shown in the table below:
Fiscal Year From To Amount
FY2022 Traffic Signal Install/Upgrade
(NC04)
Street Resurfacing
(NC03) $116,000
FY2023 Traffic Signal Install/Upgrade
(NC04)
Street Resurfacing
(NC03) $192,000
FY2024 Traffic Signal Install/Upgrade
(NC04)
Street Resurfacing
(NC03) $192,000
TOTAL $500,000
The increased funding for the Street Resurfacing Project (NC03) will support a portion of the FY24 and FY25 Pavement Rehabilitation Project, CIP No. 23-15, which is scheduled for contract award at the City Council Meeting on November 19, 2024. Pending approval, construction is anticipated to begin in early 2025.
Pending City Council authorization, staff will submit the RTIP Amendment to SANDAG for Board approval and transfer funds from the City’s TransNet (Prop A) expenditure account for Traffic Signal Install/Upgrade (NC04) to the expenditure account for Street Resurfacing Project (NC03).
It shall be noted that the accompanying Resolution contains provisions required by SANDAG, which have been reviewed and accepted by staff. While one such provision is a “hold harmless” provision, staff has determined that risk to the City is minimal since SANDAG’s involvement in National City’s TransNet projects is limited to accounting processes and financial audits.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
$500,000 in TransNet funds will be transferred from
Expenditure Account No. 307-10-18-18500-7598-6558307 (Traffic Signal Install/Upgrade) to Expenditure Account No. 307-10-18-18500-7598-6035307 (Street Resurfacing) RELATED CITY COUNCIL 2020-2025 STRATEGIC PLAN GOAL:

Introduce Ordinance by First Reading, entitled, “Ordinance of the City Council of the City of National City, California, Establishing Speed Limits on Portions of Sweetwater Road Based on Engineering and Traffic Surveys and Authorizing the Director of Public Works to Post Speed Limit Signs Consistent with the Recommendations of the Engineering and Traffic Surveys.” BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PRIOR ACTION:
Not Applicable.
EXPLANATION:
Section 22357 of the State of California Vehicle Code (CVC) permits local authorities to establish speed limits greater than the prima facie speed limit of 25 miles per hour (mph) when, on the basis of an engineering and traffic survey (E&TS), the local authority determines that a speed greater than 25 mph would facilitate the orderly movement of vehicular traffic and would be reasonable and safe. Section 627 of the CVC and Section 2B.13 of the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA-MUTCD) outline the following criteria to be considered as part of conducting an E&TS:
1) Prevailing speeds as determined by traffic engineering measurements. 2) Accident Records.
3) Highway, traffic, and roadside conditions not readily apparent to the driver. 4) Residential Density.
5) Safety of bicyclists and pedestrians, with increased consideration for vulnerable pedestrian groups including children, seniors, persons with disabilities, users of personal assistive mobility devices, and the unhoused.
The process begins with establishing speed zones to protect the public from the unreasonable behavior of reckless, unreliable, or otherwise dangerous drivers. Speed zones are also established to advise drivers of road conditions or hazards that may not be readily apparent to a reasonable driver. For that reason, a field review of related road/traffic variables is conducted which considers the analytical data and accident history of a particular roadway segment to determine a safe and reasonable speed limit. Next the criteria listed above in combination with other factors such as 85th percentile speed, pace, and incremental changes in speeds from one zone to the next, are analyzed using the methodologies established in the CVC and CA-MUTCD to recommend speed limits.
The CVC and CA-MUTCD recommend establishing speed limits at or near the 85th percentile speed, which is defined as the speed at or below which 85 percent of traffic is moving during freeflow conditions. Speed limits may, however, be established below the 85th percentile speed (within specified thresholds) if conditions are met for criteria 2) through 5) above. Speed limits established on this basis conform to the consensus of those who drive on the roadways as to what speed is reasonable and safe, and are not dependent on the judgment of one or a few individuals.
State Assembly Bills (AB) 43 and 1938, which went into effect on January 1, 2022 and January 1, 2023, respectively, provide local agencies greater flexibility in setting and reducing speed limits.
For example, local agencies may establish a speed limit of 20 mph or 25 mph if criteria is met for defining a “business activity district”. The legislation required updates to the CVC and CA-MUTCD, the last of which was made available to the public in March 2023.
In 2022, the National City Engineering & Public Works Department authorized STC Traffic (through an “On-Call” Professional Engineering Services contract) to conduct new E&TS for all Arterial and Collector roadways identified in the National City General Plan Circulation Element.
In 2023, STC Traffic completed the E&TS for 105 individual roadway segments in accordance with the procedures established by Section 2B.13 of the CA-MUTCD and consistent with all applicable provisions of the CVC. On December 5, 2023, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 2023-2025 establishing speed limits for all 105 individual roadway segments based on the E&TS.
Based on recent traffic collisions and requests received from the public regarding speeding on Sweetwater Road east of I-805, staff asked STC Traffic to re-evaluate the traffic data to determine if reductions to the posted speed limits are warranted. The following justifications have been presented to reduce the posted speed limit from 45 MPH to 40 MPH on Sweetwater Road between I-805 and Plaza Bonita Road:
“When the nearest 5 mph increment of the 85th-percentile speed would require a rounding down, the speed may be reduced by 5 mph from the nearest 5 mph increment of the 85th-percentile speed (CVC 22358.6(b); CAMUTCD Section 2B.13, Standard 12a, Option 1) - CVC 627(c)(2); CA-MUTCD Section 2B.13, Option 29B (safety of bicyclists and pedestrians, vulnerable pedestrian groups – bus stop and no sidewalk).”
A copy of the E&TS certification summary sheets are attached as Exhibit A.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
Funding to replace the existing speed limit signs is available through the Engineering & Public Works Streets Division Maintenance & Operations budget for traffic signs.

Office of the City Manager
2FWRber 2, 2024
To the Honorable Mayor, Members of the City Council, and Citizens of the City of National City:
It is our pleasure to submit the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) of the City of National City (the “City”) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. The ACFR has been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and audited in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards by an independent firm of licensed certified public accountants.
This report consists of management’s representations concerning the finances of the City. Consequently, management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of all of the information presented in this report. To provide a reasonable basis for making these representations, management has established a comprehensive internal control framework that is designed both to protect the City’s assets from loss, theft, or misuse and to compile sufficient reliable information for the preparation of the City’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Because the cost of internal controls should not outweigh their benefits, internal controls have been designed to provide reasonable rather than absolute assurance that the financial statements will be free from material misstatement. As management, we assert that, to the best of our knowledge and belief, this financial report is complete and reliable in all material respects. All disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain an understanding of the City's financial activities have been included.
The Pun Group, LLP, an independent auditing firm of certified public accountants, has issued an unmodified opinion (clean opinion) on the City’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. The independent auditor’s report is presented as the first component of the financial section of this ACFR.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A), which immediately follows the independent auditor’s report, provides a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis of the basic financial statements. The MD&A complements this letter of transmittal and should be read in conjunction with it.
The independent audit of the financial statements of the City was part of a broader, federally mandated “Single Audit” designed to meet the special needs of federal grantor agencies. The standards governing Single Audit engagements require the independent auditor to report not only on the fair presentation of the financial statements, but also on internal controls and compliance with legal requirements, with emphasis on those involving the administration of federal awards. The City’s Single Audit Report is issued separately.
PROFILE OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY
The City of National City, incorporated on September 17, 1887, is located in southwestern San Diego County, bordered by the City of San Diego to the north and east, San Diego Bay to the west, and the City of Chula Vista to the south. The City is home to a fairly constant population of about 62,000 residents and occupies 9.2 square miles.
Transmittal Letter
v Page 941 of 1135
The City is a general law city and operates under the council/manager form of government. The City Council has five members, with the Mayor elected at large and the four Councilmembers elected by district.
The Mayor is the presiding officer of the Council. In 2022, National City voters approved transitioning the previously elected positions of City Treasurer and City Clerk to become appointive at the end of the current terms.
The City Council is responsible for enacting ordinances, adopting the budget, establishing policies, reviewing the General Plan, appointing committees, and appointing the City Manager and the City Attorney. The City Manager is responsible for carrying out the policies and ordinances of the Council, overseeing the day-to-day operations of the City, and appointing the heads of departments. The City Attorney is the legal counsel for the City, the Community Development Commission, Parking Authority, and the Successor Agency, and advises the City Council, the City’s boards and commissions, and City staff.
The City provides a full range of services, which include general government, public safety (police, fire, disaster preparedness, and building inspection), construction and maintenance of the City’s infrastructure, economic development, affordable housing, cultural and recreational programs, library and literacy programs, and senior and nutrition services.
BUDGETARY CONTROL
The annual budget serves as the foundation for the City’s financial planning and control. The proposed budget is presented to the City Council for review and adoption prior to the beginning of each fiscal year, July 1st. The state mandates a balanced budget. The budget is prepared by fund, department and account.
After budget adoption, in accordance with the National City Municipal Code, City Council must approve any revisions that increase total appropriations of a fund. The City Manager is authorized to make budgetary revisions between budget line items within a fund, and department directors may transfer appropriations within their respective departments. The budget is regularly monitored and the Council receives quarterly updates. Budget-to-actual comparisons are provided in this report for each major governmental fund for which an annual budget has been adopted. For the General Fund, this comparison is presented on page 98 as part of the required supplementary information for the governmental funds. The budget-to-actual comparison for governmental funds other than the General Fund, with appropriated annual budgets follow.
FACTORS AFFECTING FINANCIAL CONDITION
Economic Profile
During fiscal year 2022-2023 National City continued its economic recovery from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, building on the progress that began in fiscal year 2021. The National City unemployment rate peaked in April 2020 at 18.8%, falling steadily throughout fiscal year 2021 and 2022, measuring at 4.8% as of June 2023.
The year began with uncertainty whether the economic recovery from the pandemic would continue at the speed and intensity experienced in fiscal year 2022 or if the economy would slow down or hit a plateau.
During budget development in the Spring of 2022, given continued uncertainty about how the City’s revenue would be impacted by the unpredictable pandemic recovery and global supply chain issues, the City budgeted sales tax revenue for fiscal year 2023 based on FY 2022 actuals. FY 2023 sales tax revenues did not exceed FY 2022 actuals of $23.8 million but fell short at $23.0 million.

Transmittal Letter
Sales tax is the City’s main revenue source, accounting for approximately 54% of General Fund resources.
In fiscal year 2023, 60% of sales tax revenue came from the Bradley-Burns uniform local tax and 40% came from the National City voter-approved 1% district transactions and use tax (“Proposition D”). Though the City is heavily dependent upon retail sales-related tax revenues, it has, as Table 1 illustrates, a diversified commercial, retail, and industrial presence, which reduces the impacts of economic downturns and helps it recuperate steadily.
Bradley-Burns sales tax revenue decreased in FY 2023 from FY 2022 by $(869,312) or (3.65%). The City’s District sales tax increased in FY 2023 by $223,769 or 1.47% over FY 2022.
The second largest revenue source for the City is property tax revenue. During fiscal year 2023 assessed values of property within National City increased for the twelfth consecutive year. Net taxable values rose by 5.31% for the fiscal year 2023 property tax rolls, with details in table 2. Between March 2022 and March 2023, the median price in the City for a detached
single-family residential home grew 4.23%,
reaching an average price of $638,823 and a
mdian price of $628,000. The increase in home
prices is driven by demand outpacing supply, a
common situation that occurs throughout San
Diego County.
The City built a budget for fiscal year 2023 which
anticipated growing unassigned fund balance by
$364,000. Unassigned fund balance actually
increased by $3.5 million due to a combination of
revenues increasing by $4.0 million over budget
and expenditure savings of approximately $7.9
million. The Other Revenues category accounts
for all of the $4.0 million over the revenue budget
which include a State grant of $1.0 million for the
Las Palmas Pool, transient occupancy tax
($900,000), various franchise fees ($500,000),

rental payments for City owned land ($300,000), school district contract reimbursements ($200,000) and residual balance payments from the Successor Agency ($200,000).
Expenditure savings totaling $7.9 million are explained by personnel costs savings of $200,000.
Personnel costs make up approximately 61% of the General Fund’s budget. While vacant authorized positions contributed to salary and benefit savings of $2.7 million, costs related to overtime requirements, primarily in the Police and Fire departments, exceeded budgeted amounts by $2.0 million. In addition, the costs for worker’s compensation insurance was $400,000 greater than the budget.
Maintenance & Operations (“M&O”) savings of $2.2 million were realized across various accounts, but particularly in Contract Services ($1.2 million), Professional Services ($500,000), and Emergency Animal Treatment ($100,000).
The capital projects category had a variance of $5.3 million between the budget and actuals. This $5.3 million does not represent savings. Rather, it is unspent monies on specifically authorized capital improvement projects that are still ongoing. The unspent appropriations were carried over to the fiscal year 2024 budget and are reflected in the assigned fund balance component of the fund balance.
Regarding the City’s fund balance categories, the majority of the increase ($3.5 million) was to the General Fund unassigned fund balance, which had a balance of $23.0 million as of June 30, 2023.
National City has a progressive history of commercial development, including the “Mile of Cars,” San Diego County’s first major auto park, and Westfield Plaza Bonita, the County’s first indoor mall and largest enclosed mall in the South San Diego Bay area. Both attract shoppers from throughout the County and outlying areas and continue to be major revenue sources for the City. The Walmart Supercenter is the retail hub of the City’s central section, generating significant tax revenue and bringing shoppers to nearby stores and restaurants. Despite these successes, however, National City has experienced economic ebbs and flows which have directly impacted community service levels. In 2005 and 2006, the City faced revenue shortfalls and a structural deficit that led to reductions in services.
In response, National City voters in 2006 approved the “Proposition ‘D” transactions & use tax, which produced a high of $15.4 million of revenue in fiscal year 2023. During the November 2014 General Election, National City voters approved a measure extending the tax for an additional twenty years.
Proposition “D” has allowed the City to continue to provide important programs and services to its citizens.
During fiscal year 2022, the five year Proposition D independent review committee convened and after a thorough review of the City’s General Fund finances, recommended maintaining the current district transactions and use tax rate of 1% for the following five years. City Council agreed with the recommendation and therefore the tax rate will remain at 1% through fiscal year 2027.
Long-Term Financial Planning
During fiscal year 2020, City management reviewed and updated the City’s five-year strategic plan. Its purpose is to:
x establish a long-range vision and direction for the City; x ensure all participants are working toward the same goals and objectives; x assess/adjust the direction of the organization given the current (and changing) environment; x communicate goals and initiatives of the organization; and x provide a basis for developing a work plan to ensure the goals and initiatives of the Strategic Plan are carried out.

The City updates its five-year Capital Improvement Program (“CIP”) annually. The CIP encompasses and highlights some of the City’s needed infrastructure improvements. The City has identified approximately $89 million in capital needs over the next five years. Funding comes from multiple sources, including available fund balance, general purpose revenues, user fees, special tax revenues, and regional, state, and federal funds. In addition to routine sewer, drainage, and transportation-related projects, the CIP includes improvements to parks, recreation, and community services facilities and municipal buildings and facilities, such as the library, community center, police department, and fire stations. Recently completed and ongoing projects are described below under “Major Accomplishments and Initiatives.”
Funding Long-Term Liabilities
In November 2021, the City took action to refinance the City’s pension unfunded accrued liability owed to CalPERS by issuing approximately $84M in Pension Obligation Bonds (POB). The issuance will provide the City with about $20 million in savings over the term of the bonds by reducing the interest rate on the liability from a then 7% (now 6.8%) charged by CalPERS, to an average bond interest rate of 3%. In addition, the financing restructured the liability to smooth out future payments related to pension liabilities over the following fourteen years. The payment smoothing will have the greatest impact on the next few years, which would have had large spikes in payments owed to CalPERS had the POBs not been issued.
As part of the bond issuance process, the City had a credit rating review. The City’s general obligation bond rating was upgraded from ‘A+’ to ‘AA-‘ stable. In the ratings report, S & P Global stated “the raised rating reflects our view of the city’s significantly improved financial policies and practices coupled with strong performance and very strong and consistent reserves.” Reserves
A portion of the fund balance of the General Fund, the “Economic Contingency Reserve,” is committed to strengthening the City’s ability to withstand unexpected financial emergencies and economic downturns. During fiscal year 2021, City Council approved amendments to City Council Policy #201, Maintenance of Reserve Funds. The City’s reserve policy establishes that the City will strive to accumulate and maintain an Economic Contingency Reserve balance equal to a minimum of twenty percent (20%) of a single year’s General Fund operating expenditures for these purposes. The amended policy also formalized using a portion of General Fund unassigned fund balance as a reserve to be maintained at a minimum of ten percent (10%) General Fund operating expenditures. As of June 30, 2023, based on the FY 2023 General Fund Budget of $,,66, the Economic Contingency Reserve is at 1.% and the General Fund unassigned fund balance is at 34.8% as defined by the polic.
Transmittal Letter
L[ Page 945 of 1135
Transmittal Letter
The 2021 revision to the reserve policy also updated the funding target for the Facilities Maintenance Reserve to be three times the annual base needed for performing major maintenance on the City’s facilities, which is defined as being 1.5% of the City’s General Fund operating expenditures. The policy also specifies that the City’s annual budget includes funding for major maintenance in the amount of 1.5% of the General Fund operating expenditures. Based on the FY 2023 General Fund Budget, the Facility Maintence Reserve is at 4.3% which is below the policy level of 4.5%. In accordance with the reserve policy, the assets maintained in the Facilities Maintenance Reserve, as well as those in the Contingency Reserve, described above, are designated as committed fund balance.
In addition to the Contingency Reserve and Facilities Maintenance Reserve, the City maintains a number of other reserves, most of which have accumulated their minimum target balances, as of June 30, 2023.
Cash Management Policies and Practices
As National City’s governing body, the City Council is granted the authority to manage the City’s investment program, pursuant to California Government Code Section 53600 et seq. Management responsibility for the cash and investment of City funds is delegated to the Administrative Services Director and/or Financial Services Officer.
The City annually adopts a comprehensive investment policy specifying investment objectives, such as type and term of investments, reporting requirements, and investment oversight. The City’s investments generally include US Treasury and Agency securities, Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service deposits, medium-term corporate notes, negotiable certificates of deposit, commercial paper, the State of California’s Local Agency Investment Fund, and the County of San Diego Pooled Money Fund. See Note 2 for a list of the City’s authorized investments. The investment policy complies in all respects with State laws governing deposit and investment of public funds.
The objective of the investment portfolio is to enhance the City’s cash resources, while meeting the short and long term cash flow demands of the City. To achieve this objective, the portfolio is structured to provide safety of principal and liquidity, while providing a reasonable return on investments.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
of the City of National City
National City, California
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of National City, California (the “City”), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2023, and the related notes to the basic financial statements, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City, as of June 30, 2023, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof 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 standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent 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.
In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether 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 financial statement date, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter.
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
of the City of National City
National City, California
2 Auditors’ 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 issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinions.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and Government Auditing Standards 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 involve 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the Government Auditing Standards, we:
Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform 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 circumstances, 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 policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well 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 audit findings, and certain internal control–related matters that we identified during the audit.
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management’s Discussion and Analysis, Budgetary Comparison Schedules, Schedule of Changes in the Net Pension Liability and Related Ratios, Schedules of Pension Contributions, and Schedule of Changes in Total OPEB Liability and Related Ratios to be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context.
We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information 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 information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the financial statements.
We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
of the City of National City
National City, California
3 Supplementary Information
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements. The Combining and Individual Non-Major Fund Financial Statements and the Budgetary Comparison Schedules are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial 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 accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and Government Auditing Standards. In our opinion, the Combining and Individual Non-Major Fund Financial Statements and the Budgetary Comparison 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 information included in the annual report. The other information comprises the introductory and statistical sections but does not include the basic financial statements and our auditors’ 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 audits of the basic financial statements, 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 other information otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work performed, we conclude that an uncorrected material misstatement of the other information exists, we are required to describe it in our report.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated October 2, 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, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is 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 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.

5 Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Management of the City of National City (the “City”) offers this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.
We encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with our letter of transmittal, which can be found beginning on page V of this report. The intent of this discussion and analysis is to provide a summarized view of the City’s financial performance, as a whole; therefore, readers should also review the basic financial statements and supporting notes to enhance their understanding of the City’s financial performance.
Overview of the Financial Statements
This Management’s Discussion & Analysis (“MD&A”) is intended to serve as an introduction to the City’s basic financial statements, which comprise three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the basic financial statements.
Government-Wide Financial 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 government-wide financial statements consist of the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities.
The Statement of Net Position presents information on all of the City’s assets, liabilities, and deferred inflows and outflows of resources, with the difference reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in the City’s net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City is improving or deteriorating.
The Statement of Activities and Changes in Net Position presents information showing how the government’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 (e.g., uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave).
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, transportation, community development, health, and culture and recreation.
The government-wide financial statements report the activities of the City and its three blended component units: the Housing Authority of the City of National City, the Parking Authority of the City of National City, and the National City Joint Powers Financing Authority. Although legally separate, the component units function, for all practical purposes, as departments of the City and, therefore, have been blended, as part of the primary government. The Successor Agency to the Community Development Commission as the National City Redevelopment Agency (“Successor Agency”) is included as a fiduciary component unit, since it would be misleading to exclude it, due to the nature and significance of the relationship between it and the City. The activity of the Successor Agency is reported with the City’s fiduciary funds, which are not included in the government-wide statements because the resources of those funds are not available to support the City’s own programs.
The government-wide financial statements are presented using the accrual basis of accounting, which differs from the modified accrual basis of accounting used for preparing the governmental fund financial statements. Note 1 of the Notes to the Basic Financial Statements section fully describes these bases of accounting. Proprietary funds, discussed below, also are reported using the accrual basis of accounting.
6 The government-wide financial statements can be found on pages 18-20 of this report.
Fund Financial Statements. A fund is a grouping of related accounts 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. In the basic financial statements, the emphasis is on major funds. Each of the City’s funds falls into one of three categories: governmental, proprietary, or fiduciary.
Governmental Funds. Governmental funds are used to account for the same functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, the 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 evaluating the City’s near-term financing requirements.
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 can better understand the long-term impact of the government’s near-term financing decisions. Reconciliations between the government-wide financial statements and the governmental fund financial statements are included as part of the basic financial statements. The major reconciling items relate to capital assets and debt. In the governmental funds, acquisitions of capital assets are treated as “expenditures,” because, upon purchase of a capital asset, cash used to acquire it is no longer available for other purposes. The issuance of debt provides cash, which is then available for specified purposes. At the end of the fiscal year, the unassigned fund balances in the governmental fund financial statements reflect spendable resources available for appropriation by the City Council. Spendable balances are not presented on the face of the government-wide financial statements.
The City maintains thirty-two individual governmental funds, including the General Fund. Information is presented separately in the governmental funds’ Balance Sheet and Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balance for the General Fund, Housing Fund, Housing Choice Voucher (aka “Section 8”) Program Fund, and Sewer Service Fund, all of which are major funds. The City’s other governmental funds are considered non-major, and their data are combined into a single, aggregated presentation.
The governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 24-30. Individual fund information for each of the non-major governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements and can be found on pages 112-117.
The City adopts annual budgets for its General, Housing, Housing Choice Voucher Program, and Sewer Service Funds.
Budgetary comparison statements, found on pages 94-101, have been provided, to reflect compliance with these budgets.
Proprietary Funds. The City maintains two types of proprietary funds: enterprise and internal service. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements.
Internal service funds are used to accumulate and allocate costs internally among the City’s functions. The City has seven internal service funds: the Facilities Maintenance Fund, the Liability Insurance Fund, the Information Systems Maintenance Fund, the Motor Vehicle Services Fund, the Equipment Replacement Reserve Fund, the Office Equipment Depreciation Fund, and the Telecommunications Revolving Fund. Because these services predominantly benefit governmental, rather than business-type, functions, their financial information is included within the governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements.
Proprietary fund financial statements provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial statements (business-type activities), only in more detail. The internal service funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation in the proprietary fund financial statements.
The proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 33-35. Individual fund data for the internal service funds is provided in the form of supplementary combining statements and can be found on pages 128-135.
7 Fiduciary Funds. Fiduciary funds are used to account for activities for which the City’s role is purely custodial. The fiduciary funds of the City are the Agency Funds (comprising the COBRA Insurance Fund and Miscellaneous Deposits Fund) and the Successor Agency Private-purpose Trust Fund. These funds are not reflected in the government-wide financial statements because the resources of the funds are not available to support the City’s programs.

8 The City’s assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources by $236,550,119 at June 30, 2023, an increase of $15,670,988 from June 30, 2022. By far, the largest portion of the City’s net position, $170,389,264 is its investment in capital assets (i.e., land, buildings, machinery, equipment, and infrastructure). These capital assets are used to provide services to citizens and, consequently, 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 that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other resources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate the liabilities.
Another portion of the City’s net position, $106,369,321 represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they may be used. The remainder of net position, unrestricted net position, increased $1,191,320 year over year.
The $8,935,661 increase in capital assets was the main driver of the overall gain in net position between 2022 and 2023.
Table 2 provides a condensed summary of activities of the City’s government for the period ended June 30, 2023, with the prior fiscal year presented for comparative purposes. The $15,670,987 (7.09%) increase in the City’s total net position is all due to the increase in program revenues and investment earnings, which lead to a 15.96% total revenue growth over June 30, 2022. Governmental and business-type operating results for the current fiscal year are provided in greater detail on page 24.

Governmental
Activities
9 Governmental Activities. The City’s total revenues from governmental activities were $127,340,475 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, growing $17,528,259 or 15.96%, compared to the prior year. The largest source of revenue for the City, at 30.37%, is sales-related taxes (comprising sales & use tax and district transaction & use tax). Revenues from sales-related taxes decreased by $(2,098,851) or (5.15%). Revenues from other taxes, the most significant of which is property-related taxes (real property taxes, personal property taxes, and property tax in lieu of vehicle license fee [“VLF”]), represented 18.43% of total revenues at the end of the current fiscal year (fiscal year 2023) and increased by $1,933,328 or 8.98%.
Capital grants and contributions for governmental activities ended the fiscal year at $7,090,261, for a 101.75% increase from the prior year. Charges for services increased by $9,730,701, or 34.32%, compared to the prior year. Lastly, operating grants and contributions decreased by $(77,221), or (0.42%).
The City’s expenses for governmental activities cover a wide array of services, with $50,093,848, or 44.86%, for fiscal year 2023 related to public safety and $12,467,497, or 11.16%, to general government. Overall, expenses for governmental activities rose $9,240,483, or 9.01%, with the primary driver of the increase due to growth in public safety. General government includes construction in progress, which as of June 30, 2023 was $38,237,313, an increase of $9,431,248 from June 30, 2022. Details regarding projects contributing to this total may be found in the “Major Accomplishments and Initiatives” section of the letter of transmittal.
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 provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such 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.
The City’s classifications of fund balance comprise a hierarchy based on the extent to which the City is bound to observe constraints imposed upon the use of the financial resources of the funds. Fund balance is reported in five categories, based upon the following defining characteristics:
non-spendable – either not in spendable form or legally or contractually required to be maintained intact; restricted fund – subject to externally enforceable limitations by law, enabling legislation, or limitations imposed by creditors or grantors;
committed – may be spent only for the specific purposes determined by formal action of the government’s highest level of decision-making authority (City Council) and, therefore, may be used for different purposes only upon the government’s taking the same formal action that imposed the original constraint; assigned – constrained by the City’s intent to utilize fund balance for specific purposes; unassigned – fund balance not falling in any of the foregoing categories and available for spending at the City’s discretion.
10 The table above summarizes the balance sheet of the City’s General Fund and other governmental funds.
As of the end of the current fiscal year, the City’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $158,845,486, an increase of $9,422,622 over the prior year. The restricted component represents the largest portion, $107,276,592, of ending fund balance which includes the two bank notes the City holds pertaining to the sale of Kimball & Morgan Towers.
The General Fund is the principal operating fund of the City. At the end of the current fiscal year, the total fund balance of the General Fund increased to $62,375,221 in comparison to $57,063,603 in the prior fiscal year, an increase of $5,311,618. General Fund revenues grew $4,245,629 or 6.48%, with increases of $1,281,034 in taxes, $22,271 in licenses & permits, $2,274,588 in use of money and property, $159,473 in charges for services, and $1,102,738 in other revenues. Fines and forfeitures, and intergovernmental revenues decreased by $(345,283), and ($699,192) respectively.
General Fund expenditures increased $7,403,359, with a majority of the increase in the general government and public safety categories.
The fund balance classification for the General Fund and other major funds can be found on page 89, in Note 14 of the Notes to Financial Statements section.
The Sewer Service Fund total fund balance increased by $3,895,237 in FY23. Housing Asset Special Revenue Fund and Housing Choice Voucher Fund expenditures exceeded fund revenues resulting in a small decrease in each fund of $(67,107) and $(641,756) respectively.
Proprietary Funds. As noted earlier, the City’s proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government-wide financial statements, but in more detail. Factors concerning the finances of these funds have already been addressed in the discussion of the City’s business-type activities. 2023 2022 2023 2022 2023 2022

11 General Fund Budgetary Highlights
Actual amounts differed from the final General Fund budget as follows:
Actual revenues were $4,088,547 more than the final budget. While sales and use tax revenues were short of their budgeted estimate, overall receipts for all other major revenue categories exceeded their budgeted amounts. Actual expenditures were less than their overall budgeted amount by $6,728,844. The most significant variance of $4,943,703 is attributable to unspent appropriations for capital projects not completed during the year. Capital budget appropriations are carried over to the following fiscal year and reflected in the committed portion of fund balance.

13 Long-term Debt. At the end of the current fiscal year, the City had total debt outstanding of $89,270,329.
The City’s total debt decreased by $(3,915,469) during the fiscal year 2023. The net decrease is due from debt that was retired due to the payment of principal on the City’s debt.
As of November 2021, the City’s general obligation bond rating is “AA-.” Additional information on the City’s long-term debt can be found in Note 7 on pages 68-73 of this report.
Economic Factors and Next Year’s Budget
Many economic factors were considered in the development of the City’s fiscal year 2024 and 2025 budget. The most significant factors are described below.
Property values continue to rise significantly throughout California and the San Diego County area resulting in increases to total assessed property valuation in the City. However, since assessed value increases are capped at 2% per year per Prop 13, the City is only seeing consistent increases of 2% to 3% per year in property tax revenue. As a result, the projected increase in property tax revenues in the fiscal year 2024 and 2025 budget is approximately 3.0% above the actual revenues received in the prior year.
Fiscal year 2023 actuals for sales & use tax and district transactions and use tax revenue combined exceed budget estimates and expectations as inflation grew but consumer spending remained high. Sales & use tax and district transactions & use tax revenues are budgeted at a combined $39.4 million for fiscal year 2024, a slight increase over fiscal year 2023 actuals. Staff forecasts year over year growth of –(1.2)% for fiscal year 2024 as interest rates increases, inflation, and a possible recession slow down the economy. Beyond fiscal year 2024, the City is forecasting sales tax revenue growth of 0.25% per year.
Fiscal year 2022 was the fifteenth full year of collection of the City’s 1% district transactions & use tax. The tax measure (“Proposition ‘D”) was approved by National City voters in June 2006 and became effective in October 2006. The initial measure was effective for a period of ten years; however, in November 2014, voters approved a measure to extend the tax for an additional twenty years.

14 The tax now generates approximately $15 million in revenue annually, allowing the City to continue to provide important programs and services to its citizens. In accordance with the measure, every five years an independent committee is appointed to evaluate the status of the district transactions and use tax. The committee’s purpose is to report a recommendation to City Council on whether the tax should remain in effect at the rate of one percent, or whether the rate should be reduced, or the tax terminated. In fiscal year 2022, an independent evaluation committee convened and recommended to City Council to maintain the current tax rate of 1% for an additional five-year period. City Council approved the recommendation.

Changes in total OPEB liabilities (45,672)
Changes in the net pension liability 32,096,494

City of National City
Notes to the Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2023
45 Note 1 – Reporting Entity and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The basic financial statements of the City of National City, California (the “City”) have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted of the United States of America (“US GAAP”) as applied to governmental agencies. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”) is the accepted standard setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. The more significant of the City’s accounting policies are described below.
A. Reporting Entity
The City was incorporated September 17, 1887 under the general laws of the State of California. The City operates under a Council-Manager form of government and provides basic local governmental services including public safety (police and fire), maintenance and construction of public improvements, cultural, recreation, planning, zoning, transportation, health services and general administration. In addition, the City operates the Community Development Commission (which formerly included the Morgan Towers and Kimball Towers Enterprise Funds).
The City sold Kimball Towers and Morgan Towers to two not-for-profit organizations on March 28, 2019. The sale was intended to ensure the feasibility of the renovation, since not-for-profit organizations have financing sources that are unavailable to a developer such as a City.
In evaluating how to define the City for financial reporting purposes, management has considered all potential component units. The primary criteria for including a potential component unit within the reporting entity are the governing body’s financial accountability and a financial benefit or burden relationship and whether it is misleading to exclude. A primary government is financially accountable and shares a financial benefit or burden relationship if it appoints a voting majority of an organization’s governing body and it is able to impose its will on the organization, or if there is a potential for the organization to provide specific financial benefits to, or impose specific financial burdens on the primary government. A primary government may also be financially accountable if an organization is fiscally dependent on the primary government regardless of whether the organization has a separately elected governing board, a governing board appointed by a higher level of government, or a jointly appointed board, and there is a potential for the organization to provide specific financial benefits to, or impose specific financial burdens on the primary government.
Blended Component Units
The financial reporting entity consists of the primary government, the City, and its component units. Component units are legally separate entities for which the elected officials of the primary government are financially accountable. In addition, component units can be other organizations for which the primary government is accountable and their exclusion would cause the reporting entity’s financial statements to be misleading or incomplete.
Blended component units, although legally separate entities, are, in substance part of the government’s operation and so data from these units are combined with data of the primary government. Discretely presents component units, on the other hand, are reported in a separate column in the combined financial statements to emphasize that they are legally separate from the government.
Although the following are legally separate from the City, they have been “blended” as though they are part of the City because the component unit’s governing body is substantially the same as the City’s and there is a financial benefit or burden relationship between the City and the component unit; management of the City has operational responsibilities for the component units; and/or the component units provide services entirely, or almost entirely, to the City or otherwise exclusively, or almost exclusively, benefits the City, even though it does not provide services directly to it.

For the Year Ended June 30, 2023
46 Note 1 – Reporting Entity and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) A. Reporting Entity (Continued)
Blended Component Units (Continued)
National City Joint Powers Financing Authority
The National City Joint Powers Financing Authority (the “NCJPFA”) was created pursuant to a joint exercise of powers agreement entered into by and between the City and the CDC on April 16, 1991. The purpose of such agreement was to provide for the financing and construction of a new police facility and a new community center.
The NCJPFA is administered by a commission consisting of the members of the City Council and all voting power of the NCJPFA resides in the commission. The NCJPFA exclusively benefits the City. In 2017 the NCJPFA facilitated the lease financing of the 2017 Energy Savings Project. There are no separate financial statements available.
Parking Authority of the City of National City
In July 1977, the Parking Authority of the City of National City (the “Parking Authority”) was activated pursuant to the Parking Law of 1949 for the financing and construction of the Plaza Bonita Parking Facility. Currently it is used to account for the City’s parking enforcement activities and developing solutions to demand for parking in various sections of the City. The City Council is the governing board of the Authority. The Authority exclusively benefits the City. The capital assets of the Parking Authority have been included in the Government-Wide Financial Statements. There are no separate financial statements available.
Community Development Commission of the City of National City The National City Redevelopment Agency (the “RDA”), pursuant to provisions of the California Health and Safety Code, was established in April 1967 to undertake and carry out the redevelopment of certain areas within the City that were determined to be blighted. In 1975, the City formed the Housing Authority and concurrently established the Community Development Commission (the “CDC”) to oversee both the RDA and the Housing Authority. In 2012, redevelopment agencies throughout the state of California were dissolved, including the National City RDA. The CDC remains as an active entity with respect to its Housing Authority functions. The City Council is the Governing Board of the CDC. There are no separate financial statements available.
The following specific criteria were used in determining the status of these component units:
Members of the City Council also act as the governing body of the NCJPFA, the Parking Authority, and the CDC;
The City, the NCJPFA, the Parking Authority, and the CDC are financially interdependent; The NCJPFA, the Parking Authority, and the CDC are managed by employees of the City, who provide various support functions including financial reporting and investment decisions.
B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus
The accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for by providing a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues and expenditures or expenses, as appropriate. Fund accounting segregates funds according to their intended purpose and is used to aid management in demonstrating compliance with finance-related legal and contractual provisions. The minimum number of funds is maintained in accordance with legal and managerial requirements.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2023
47 Note 1 – Reporting Entity and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus (Continued) The Statement of Net Position and Balance Sheet – Governmental Funds report separate sections for deferred outflows of resources, and deferred inflows of resources, when applicable.
Deferred Outflows of Resources represent outflows of resources (consumption of net assets that applies to future periods) that apply to future periods and that, therefore, will not be recognized as an expense until that time.
Deferred Inflows of Resources represent inflows of resources (acquisition of net assets that applies to future periods) that apply to future periods and that, therefore, are not recognized as revenue until that time.
Government - Wide Financial Statements
The City’s Government-Wide Financial Statements include a Statement of Net Position and a Statement of Activities and Changes in Net Position. These statements present summaries of governmental and business-type activities for the City accompanied by a total column. Fiduciary activities of the City are not included in these statements.
These financial statements are presented on an “economic resources” measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, all of the City’s assets and liabilities, including capital assets, as well as infrastructure assets, and long-term liabilities, are included in the accompanying Statement of Net Position. The Statement of Activities presents changes in net position. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the period in which they are earned while expenses are recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred.
Certain types of transactions are reported as program revenues for the City in three categories:
Charges for services;
Operating grants and contributions;
Capital grants and contributions
Certain eliminations have been made in regards to interfund activities, payables and receivables. All internal balances in the Statement of Net Position have been eliminated except those representing balances between the governmental activities and the business-type activities, which are presented as internal balances and eliminated in the total primary government column. In the Statement of Activities and Changes in Net Position, internal service fund transactions have been eliminated; however, those transactions between governmental and businesstype activities have not been eliminated. The following interfund activities have been eliminated:
Due to/from other funds;
Advances to/from other funds;
Transfers in/out
Governmental Fund Financial Statements
Governmental Fund Financial Statements include a Balance Sheet and a Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances for all major governmental funds and non-major funds aggregated. An accompanying schedule is presented to reconcile and explain the differences in net position as presented in these statements to the net position presented in the Government-Wide Financial Statements. The City has presented all major funds that met the applicable criteria.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2023
48 Note 1 – Reporting Entity and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus (Continued) Governmental Fund Financial Statements (Continued)
All governmental funds are accounted for on a spending or "current financial resources" measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, only current assets and current liabilities are included on the Balance Sheet. The Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances presents increases (revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets.
Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which they become both measurable and available to finance expenditures of the current period.
Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both “measurable” and “available”. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period or as soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the City considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. The primary revenue sources, which have been treated as susceptible to accrual by the City, are property tax, sales tax, intergovernmental revenues and other taxes. Expenditures are recorded in the accounting period in which the related fund liability is incurred.
The Reconciliation of the Fund Financial Statements to the Government-Wide Financial Statements is provided to explain the differences created by the integrated approach of GASB Statement No. 34.
The City reports the following major governmental funds:
General Fund – This is the primary operating fund of the City. It is used to account for all revenues and expenditures that are not required to be accounted for in another fund.
Housing Asset Special Revenue Fund – This fund was established in 2012 pursuant to the redevelopment agency dissolution legislation to account for the assets and activities of the former RDA’s Low-and-ModerateIncome Housing Fund.
Housing Choice Voucher Program (“Section 8”) Special Revenue Fund – This fund is used to account for the activities of Housing Assistance Program. The program provides rental assistance to low-income families by subsidizing a portion of the rent directly to landlords on behalf of low-income households. The major revenue source for this fund is Housing Assistance Payments and Administrative Fees.
Sewer Service Special Revenue Fund – This fund is used to account for the collection of sewer connection fees and sewer service charges billed and paid via the County’s annual property tax collection system which are used for the construction and maintenance of the City’s sewer system. The major revenue source for this fund is the sewer service charge.
ARPA Special Revenue Fund – This fund is used to account for the proceeds and expenditures of the American Recovery Plan Act funding received by the City.
Other Special Revenue Fund – This represents a combination of minor and less active funds that the City has combined for reporting purposes. The major revenue sources consist of intergovernmental revenues, usercharge fees, franchise fees, and development impact fees.
Housing Authority Special Revenue Fund - This fund is used to account for the activities of the development of a viable urban community by providing decent housing, a suitable living environment, and expanding economic opportunities, principally for persons with low and moderate incomes.
POB Debt Service Fund - This fund is used to account for the sources and uses of and debt service on the 2021 Pension Obligation Bonds. Page 1000 of 1135

49 Note 1 – Reporting Entity and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus (Continued) Proprietary Fund Financial Statements
Proprietary Fund Financial Statements include a Statement of Net Position, a Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position, and a Statement of Cash Flows. All of the City’s proprietary funds are internal service funds. A column representing internal service funds is presented in these statements. Internal service fund balances and activities have been combined with the governmental activities in the Government-Wide Financial Statements. The City’s internal service funds include seven individual funds which provide services directly to other City funds. These areas of service include Facilities Maintenance, Liability Insurance, Information Systems Maintenance, Office Equipment Depreciation, Telecommunications, Vehicle Replacement, and Vehicle Maintenance.
Proprietary funds are accounted for using the "economic resources" measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, all assets and liabilities (whether current or noncurrent) are included on the Statement of Net Position. The Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position presents increases (revenues) and decreases (expenses) in total Net Position. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the period in which they are earned while expenses are recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred. In these funds, receivables have been recorded as revenue and provisions have been made for uncollectible amounts.
Operating revenues in the proprietary funds are those revenues that are generated from the primary operations of the fund. All other revenues are reported as non-operating revenues. Operating expenses are those expenses that are essential to the primary operations of the fund. All other expenses are reported as non-operating expenses.
The City reports the following proprietary funds (all are internal service funds) that are funded by user departments on a cost reimbursement basis:
Facilities Maintenance Fund—This fund is used to account for the cost of maintaining all City-owned buildings in a clean, safe, workable, and pleasant condition.
Liability Insurance Fund—This fund is used to account for the costs of maintaining the City’s Worker’s Compensation and liability insurance programs.
Information Systems Maintenance Fund—This fund is used to account for the costs to maintain and replace City information technology software and hardware and related equipment as well as pay for the City staff that provide support to other City departments on a daily basis.
Office Equipment Depreciation Fund—This fund is used to account for the costs to replace City office equipment.
Telecommunications Revolving Fund—This fund is used to account for the costs of maintaining the City’s telecommunication systems.
Motor Vehicle Service Fund—This fund is used to account for the City’s costs of preventative maintenance and repairs for its fleet, including police, fire, general administrative, park, sewer, and public works equipment.
Vehicle Replacement Fund—This fund is used to account for the costs to lease or purchase new or replacement City fleet vehicles and related equipment.

50 Note 1 – Reporting Entity and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus (Continued) Fiduciary Fund Financial Statements
Fiduciary fund financial statements include a Statement of Net Position and a Statement of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position. The City’s fiduciary funds represent custodial funds and private purpose trust funds. Both the custodial funds and the private purpose trust funds use the economic resources measurement focus and are accounted for on the full accrual basis of accounting.
Fiduciary fund types are accounted for according to the nature of the fund. The City’s Custodial funds (Cobra Insurance and Miscellaneous Developer’s Deposits) are purely custodial in nature. These funds are used to account for money and property held by the City as trustee or custodian.
The City has one active private purpose trust fund, the Redevelopment Obligations Retirement Fund, which is used to report the assets, liabilities, and activities of the Successor Agency to the former redevelopment agency. The Successor Agency to the Community Development Commission as the National City Redevelopment Agency (the “Successor Agency”) was created by the City Council of National City (City Council) in January 2012. It was established pursuant to Assembly Bill X1 26. Its purpose is to expeditiously wind down the affairs of the dissolved Redevelopment Agency. The governing body of the Successor Agency is comprised of the members of the City Council. Certain actions of the Successor Agency Board are subject to review by the Countywide Oversight Board and the California State Department of Finance. The Successor Agency has been included in the accompanying basic financial statements as a private purpose trust fund. Its results of operations are presented on the Statement of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position.
C. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments
The City pools its available cash for investment purposes. The City considers pooled cash and investment amounts, with original maturities of three months or less, to be cash equivalents.
Highly liquid market investments with maturities of one year or less at time of purchase are stated at amortized cost. All other investments are stated at fair value. Fair value is used as fair value for those securities for which market quotations are readily available.
The statement of cash flows requires presentation of “cash and cash equivalents”. For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, the City considers all proprietary fund pooled cash and investments as “cash and cash equivalents”, as such funds are available to the various funds as needed.
Certain disclosure requirements, if applicable, for deposit and investment risks in the following areas:
Interest rate risk
Credit risk
- Overall
- Custodial credit risk
- Concentration of credit risk
Foreign currency risk
In addition, other disclosures are specified including use of certain methods to present deposits and investments, highly sensitive investments, credit quality at year-end and other disclosures.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2023
51 Note 1 – Reporting Entity and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) D. Fair Value Measurement
U.S. GAAP defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and establishes disclosures about fair value measurement. Investments, unless otherwise specified, are recorded at fair value in the Statements of Net Position and are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. The levels of inputs are as follows:
Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, which are observable for the assets or liabilities through corroboration with market data at the measurement date.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
Investments that don’t fit into one of the three levels of inputs are described as “uncategorized.” E. Leases
The City is a lessor for leases of land and recognizes leases receivable and deferred inflows of resources in the financial statements. Variable payments based on future performance or usage of the underlying asset are not included in the measurement of the lease receivable.
At the commencement of a lease, the lease receivable is measured at the present value of payments expected to be received during the lease term. Subsequently, the lease receivable is reduced by the principal portion of lease payments received. The deferred inflows of resources are initially measured as the initial amount of the lease receivable, adjusted for lease payments received at or before the lease commencement date. Subsequently, the deferred inflows of resources are recognized as revenue over the life of the lease term in a systematic and rational method.
Key estimates and judgments include how the City determines (1) the discount rate it uses to discount the expected lease receipts to present value, (2) lease term, and (3) lease receipts. The City uses the average of the Local Agency Investment Fund (“LAIF”) rate and the incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) provided by the City’s financial institutions at July 1, 2021 for existing leases or the current rate at the time a new lease is executed.
The lease term includes the noncancelable period of the lease plus any option periods that are likely to be exercised.
Lease receipts included in the measurement of the lease receivable is composed of fixed payments from the lessee.
The City monitors changes in circumstances that would require a remeasurement of its lease and will remeasure the lease receivable and deferred inflows of resources if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the lease receivable.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2023
52 Note 1 – Reporting Entity and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) F. Inventories and Prepaid items
Inventories are valued on an average-cost basis which is adjusted to annual physical counts or estimates under the consumption method of accounting and are recorded in the internal service funds. Prepaid items are items the City has paid in advance and will receive future benefit from.
G. Restricted Assets
Fiscal agents acting on behalf of the City hold investment funds placed in irrevocable IRS Section 115 pension and OPEB trusts. These funds are restricted by the trust agreements and are to be used only for pension and/or OPEB contributions or benefit payments.
H. Interfund Transactions
Activity between funds that are representative of lending/borrowing arrangements outstanding at the end of the fiscal year are referred to as either “due to/from other funds” or “advances to/from other funds” (i.e., the current portion of interfund loans). Any residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and businesstype activities are reported in the Governmental-Wide Financial Statements as “internal balances.” I. Capital Assets
Capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost was not available.
Donated capital assets are valued at their estimated acquisition value on the date donated. City policy has set the capitalization threshold for reporting capital assets at $5,000 (including infrastructure assets). Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
Buildings and improvements 10 -50 years
Machinery and equipment 2 -20 years
Infrastructure 25 -75 years
Radio rights 20 years
For all infrastructure systems, the City elected to use the basic approach for infrastructure reporting. The City defines infrastructure as the basic physical assets that allow the City to function. The assets include the streets, water purification and distribution system, sewer collection and treatment system, parks and recreation, lands and improvements, storm water conveyance system, and buildings combined with the site amenities such as parking and landscaped areas used by the City in the conduct of its business. Each major infrastructure system can be divided into subsystems. For example, the street system can be subdivided into pavement, curb and gutters, sidewalks, medians, streetlights, traffic control devices (signs, signals and pavement markings), landscaping and land.
These subsystems were not delineated in the basic financial statements. The appropriate operating department maintains information regarding the subsystems.
The governmental fund financial statements do not present capital assets but capital assets are shown in the Reconciliation of Governmental Funds Balance Sheet to the Government-Wide Statement of Net Position.
J. Land Held for Resale
Land held for resale is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The reported amount is classified as nonspendable net position in the General Fund and in the Housing Special Revenue Fund. Page 1004 of 1135 City of National City

53 Note 1 – Reporting Entity and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) K. Compensated Absences
In government-wide financial statements and the proprietary fund financial statements, compensated absences are recorded as expenses and liabilities as incurred.
In governmental fund financial statements, compensated absences are recorded as expenditures in the years paid, and it is the City’s policy to liquidate any unpaid vacation, sick leave, or compensatory time at year-end from future resources rather than currently available and expendable resources. The General Fund and internal service funds are typically used to liquidate compensated absences.
L. Long-Term Debt
Government-Wide Financial Statements
Long-term debt and other financial obligations are reported as liabilities in the appropriate funds.
Bond premiums and discounts are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the effective interest method. Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable premium or discount. Issuance costs are expensed when incurred.
Fund Financial Statements
The fund financial statements do not present long-term debt, but long-term debt is shown in the Reconciliation of the Governmental Funds Balance Sheet to the Government-Wide Statement of Net Position.
M. Property Taxes
Property taxes are payable by property owners in two installments: November 1 and February 1 of each year.
Property taxes become delinquent on December 10 and April 10, for the first and second installments, respectively.
The lien date is January 1. The County of San Diego, California (County) bills and collects property taxes and remits them to the City according to a payment schedule established by the County.
Property tax revenue is recognized in the fiscal year for which the taxes have been levied, provided the taxes are received within 60 days after the end of the fiscal year. Property taxes received after this date are not considered available as a resource that can be used to finance the current year operations of the City and, therefore, are not recorded as revenue until collected. No allowance for doubtful accounts was considered necessary because the City participates in the California Teeter Plan whereby local agencies receive 100% of their current secured and unsecured tax levy in exchange for allowing the sponsoring county to retain all interest and penalties on any late property tax payments.
N. Unearned Revenue
Unearned revenue recorded in the Government-Wide Statement of Net Position for governmental activities and the governmental fund financial statements consists of federal and state capital grants, representing voluntary nonexchange transactions, for which advance payments have been received from the provider for which eligibility requirements, other than timing requirements, have not been satisfied.
Unearned revenue recorded in the Government-Wide Statement of Net Position for business-type activities and the proprietary fund financial statements generally consist of program fees collected from customers prior to the statement of net position date for recreation programs that begin in the next fiscal year or donations for capital or work projects, for which the related expenses have not yet been incurred.

54 Note 1 – Reporting Entity and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) O. Pensions
For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the pension plans and additions to/deductions from the plans’ fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the plans. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value. The following timeframes are used for pension reporting:
CalPERS:
Valuation Date June 30, 2021
Measurement Date June 30, 2022
Measurement Period July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022
Gains and losses related to changes in total pension liability and fiduciary net position are recognized in pension expense systematically over time. The first amortized amounts are recognized in pension expense for the year the gain or loss occurs. The remaining amounts are categorized as deferred outflows and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions and are to be recognized in future pension expense. The amortization period differs depending on the source of the gain or loss. The difference between projected and actual earnings is amortized straight-line over five years. All other amounts are amortized straight-line over the average expected remaining service lives of all members that are provided with benefits (active, inactive, and retired) as of the beginning of the measurement period.
P. Other Postemployment Benefits
For purposes of measuring the total OPEB liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB, and OPEB expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the plan and additions to/deductions from the plan’s fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the plan (Note 12).
The following timeframes are used for OPEB reporting:
Valuation Date June 30, 2023
Measurement Date June 30, 2023
Measurement Period July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023
Q. Net Position
In government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements, net position is categorized as follows:
Net Investment in Capital Assets – This component of net position consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, plus deferred outflows of resources attributable to their acquisition, reduced by the outstanding balances of debt that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets and deferred inflows of resources attributable to their acquisition.
Restricted – This component of net position consists of restricted assets reduced by liabilities and deferred inflows of resources related to those assets.
Unrestricted – This component of net position is the amount of the assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources that are not included in the determination of net investment in capital assets or the restricted component of net position.

55 Note 1 – Reporting Entity and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) R. Fund Balances
In governmental fund financial statements, fund balances are categorized as follows:
Nonspendable – Items that cannot be spent because they are not in spendable form, such as prepaid items and inventories, or items that are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact, such as principal of an endowment or revolving loan funds.
Restricted – Restricted fund balances encompass the portion of net fund resources subject to externally enforceable legal restrictions. This includes externally imposed restrictions by creditors, such as through debt covenants, grantors, contributors, laws or regulations of other governments, as well as restrictions imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
Committed – Committed fund balances encompass the portion of net fund resources, the use of which is constrained by limitations that the government imposes upon itself at its highest level of decision making, normally the governing body and that remain binding unless removed in the same manner. Adoption of a resolution by the City Council is required to commit resources or rescind the commitment. The action that constitutes the most binding constraint (i.e. ordinance) of the City’s highest level of decision-making authority, the City Council, commits fund balance for specific purposes. Commitments may be changed or lifted only by the City taking the same formal action that imposed the constraint originally.
Assigned – Assigned fund balances encompass the portion of net fund resources reflecting the government’s intended use of resources. Assignment of resources can be done by the highest level of decision making or by a committee or official designated for that purpose. The City Council has authorized the City Manager to determine and define the amount of assigned fund balances.
Unassigned – This amount is for any portion of the fund balances that do not fall into one of the above categories. The General Fund is the only fund that reports a positive unassigned fund balance amount. In other governmental funds, it is not appropriate to report a positive unassigned fund balance amount because all of the fund balance is assumed to be either nonspendable, restricted, committed, or assigned for the purposes of the respective funds. However, in other governmental funds, if expenditures incurred for specific purposes exceed the amounts that are restricted, committed, or assigned to those purposes, it may be necessary to report a negative unassigned fund balance in that fund.
S. Spending Policy
Government-Wide Financial Statements and the Proprietary Fund Financial Statements When an expense is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted net position are available, the City’s policy is to apply restricted net position first.
Governmental Fund Financial Statements
When expenditures are incurred for purposes where only unrestricted fund balances are available, the City uses the unrestricted resources in accordance with the City’s budget and the purposes for which the committed, assigned, and unassigned balances have been reported.
T. Use of Estimates
The preparation of basic financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions. Page 1007 of 1135

New Governmental Accounting Standards Implemented for the Year Ended June 30, 2023 GASB Statement No. 91
In May 2019, GASB issued Statement No. 91, Conduit Debt Obligations. The primary objectives of this Statement are to provide a single method of reporting conduit debt obligations by issuers and eliminate diversity in practice associated with (1) commitments extended by issuers, (2) arrangements associated with conduit debt obligations, and (3) related note disclosures. This Statement achieves those objectives by clarifying the existing definition of a conduit debt obligation; establishing that a conduit debt obligation is not a liability of the issuer; establishing standards for accounting and financial reporting of additional commitments and voluntary commitments extended by issuers and arrangements associated with conduit debt obligations; and improving required note disclosures.
Application of this statement did not have a significant effect on the City’s financial reporting for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.
GASB Statement No. 94
In March 2020, GASB issued Statement No. 94, Public-Private and Public-Public Partnerships and Availability Payment Arrangements. The primary objective of this Statement is to improve financial reporting by addressing issues related to public-private and public-public partnership arrangements (PPPs). As used in this Statement, a PPP is an arrangement in which a government (the transferor) contracts with an operator (a governmental or nongovernmental entity) to provide public services by conveying control of the right to operate or use a nonfinancial asset, such as infrastructure or other capital asset (the underlying PPP asset), for a period of time in an exchange or exchange-like transaction. Application of this statement did not have a significant effect on the City’s financial reporting for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.
GASB Statement No. 96
In May 2020, GASB issued Statement No. 96, Subscription-Based Information Technology Arrangements. This Statement provides guidance on the accounting and financial reporting for subscription-based information technology arrangements (SBITAs) for government end users (governments). This Statement (1) defines a SBITA; (2) establishes that a SBITA results in a right-to-use subscription asset—an intangible asset—and a corresponding subscription liability; (3) provides the capitalization criteria for outlays other than subscription payments, including implementation costs of a SBITA; and (4) requires note disclosures regarding a SBITA. Application of this statement did not have a significant effect on the City’s financial reporting for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.
GASB Statement No. 99
In April 2022, 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 (1) practice issues that have been identified during implementation and application of certain GASB Statements and (2) accounting and financial reporting for financial guarantees. Application of this statement did not have a significant effect on the City’s financial reporting for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.
