DATE 01/26/2023
TO Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM Krysten Lee, Finance Director
SUBJECT Acceptance of the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the period ended June 30, 2022
SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council, by motion, accept the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the period ended June 30, 2022.
BACKGROUND
As part of the year-end closing process, staff presents the audited ACFR for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. This report’s financial statements provide information on the City’s year-end financial condition and operational results for FY 2022. Lance, Soll & Lunghard, LLP (LSL) audited the report and issued an unmodified audit opinion.
The City’s financial statements were prepared according to the requirements of the Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB). There are two government-wide financial statements that provide a broad view of the City’s financial position and activities in a manner similar to private sector business reporting. The Statement of Net Position provides information regarding the City’s financial position, including all assets and liabilities, and the Statement of Activities provides information regarding the City’s revenues and expenses. In the Transmittal Letter and Management Discussion and Analysis, there is a a narrative overview and analysis of the City’s financial activities and performance during the fiscal year.
Following the close of each fiscal year, the City’s external auditors conduct an audit of the City’s financial records. The objective and general purpose of external financial reporting is accountability and transparency. The goal of the financial statement audit is to provide users with a reasonable assurance from an independent source that the information presented in the statements is reliable. The audit for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, and was recently completed by LSL auditors. LSL was approved by the Council as the City’s independent auditor on May 23, 2019, and this is their fourth year of engagement.
The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City of Newark for its ACFR for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. To be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, a government must publish an easily readable Packet Page 22
awarded a Certificate of Achievement, a government must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized, comprehensive annual financial report. The report must satisfy both generally accepted accounting principles and applicable legal requirements. The Certificate of Achievement is the highest form of recognition in the field of government accounting.
A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. Staff believes that the current ACFR for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, continues to meet the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting Program's requirement, and was submitted to GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
Financial Highlights for FY 2022
Government-wide:
• At June 30, 2022, the assets and deferred outflows of resources of the City exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources by $229.6 million (net position). This is an increase of $32.2 million from the prior fiscal year, resulting from an increase in cash, decrease in long-term liabilities, and increase in deferred inflow of resources from current year activities.
• Government-wide revenues include program revenues of $27.7 million and general revenues of $65.8 million, an increase of $1.6 million total revenues from the prior fiscal year. Overall program revenues were $4.2 million lower than the previous year, as lower impact fees revenue more than offset increases in operating and capital grants and contributions. General revenues were $6.0 million higher due to increases in all revenue categories including property tax, sales tax, transient occupancy tax, utility users tax, and franchise fees.
• Government-wide expenses totaled $61.3 million, a decrease of $8.5 million from the prior year's total of $69.6 million. This decrease reflects a lower pension contribution compared to the prior year and lower operating expenses as City departments continued to spend prudently.
Governmental Funds:
• At the close of FY 2022, the City's governmental funds reported combined fund balances of $148.8 million, an increase of $13.4 million in comparison with the prior fiscal year. This is due to total revenues of $91.4 million exceeding total expenditures of $77.9 million.
• Governmental Fund revenues were $91.4 million in FY 2022 and was relatively flat compared to FY 2021. The combined increase in property tax, sales tax, intergovernmental revenue and current services charges offset decreases in impact fees revenue.
• Governmental Fund expenditures were $77.9 million in FY 2022, a decrease of $36.9 Packet Page 23
million compared to FY 2021, as last fiscal year included large amounts of capital construction costs for the new Civic Center.
A final version of the FY 2022 ACFR will be available on the City’s website.

Finance Department

Newark, CA 94560
December 16, 2022
Honorable Mayor, Members of the City Council, and the Citizens of the City of Newark, California:
I am pleased to present the City
’
s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. Various financing covenants and rules associated with restricted funding sources require the City of Newark, California (City) to publish a complete set of audited financial statements presented in conformance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). This report was prepared by the City’s Finance Department to fulfill that requirement.
Management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of the information contained in this report, based upon a comprehensive framework of internal controls the City has established for this purpose. Because the cost of internal controls should not exceed anticipated benefits, the objective is to provide reasonable, rather than an absolute, assurance that the City’s financial statements are free of any material misstatements.
The independent certified public accounting firm, Lance, Soll and Lunghard Certified Public Accountants (LSL CPAs) has rendered its unmodified opinion on the City ’
s financial statements for the
year ended June 30, 2022. The independent auditor’s report is presented at the front of the financial section of this ACFR.
Management’s discussion and analysis (MD&A) immediately follows the independent auditor’s report and 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.
Profile of the City of Newark, California
The City of Newark, incorporated in 1955, is located on the eastern shores of San Francisco Bay at the end of the Dumbarton Bridge and in the northern part of Silicon Valley, fifteen miles north of San Jose, California. The City’s geographic location in the San Francisco Bay Area (Bay Area) is a significant factor affecting its economic position. The City represents a diverse and skilled workforce and is in close proximity to universities and some of California’s largest and fastest growing companies. As of January 1, 2022, the City’s population was estimated by the California Department of Finance at 47,229, approximately 2.9% of the total Alameda County population. The City occupies an area of approximately fourteen square miles.
The City is a general law city and operates under the Council-Manager form of government. Under this form of government, policy-making and legislative authority are vested in a five-member elected City Council consisting of the Mayor and four Council members. The Mayor and City Council are responsible for passing ordinances, adopting, and amending the operating and capital budgets, appointing various committee Packet Page
v 31
members, and hiring both the City’s manager and attorney. The City Manager is responsible for carrying out the policies and ordinances established by the City Council, for overseeing the day-to-day operations of the City, and for appointing the various department heads.
The City provides a full range of municipal services to its citizens. These include police protection; construction and maintenance of streets, parks, storm drains, and other infrastructure; recreational activities and cultural events; planning, zoning, and other community development activities; and administrative services including information systems, human resources, and finance. Fire protection services are contracted from the Alameda County Fire Department.
The City’s financial report includes all funds and activities of the City of Newark as the primary government and its component unit, the Newark Public Financing Authority. The Newark Public Financing Authority is a blended component unit because the governing board consists of all five members of the City Council.
A biennial operating budget and capital improvement plan are adopted by City Council resolution prior to July 1 of even number years. This serves as the foundation for Newark’s financial planning and control. The City Council must approve all budget amendments and transfers between funds by resolution during the fiscal year. The City Manager is authorized to transfer unencumbered appropriations within a department within the same fund and is also authorized to assign funds from the unassigned fund balance per Statement No. 54 of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB 54).
Local Economy
The City’s financial condition at the close of fiscal year 2022 was much stronger, nearing two years after the pandemic first hit. Property tax revenue, representing the general fund’s largest revenue source, increased slightly. The City’s total property assessment roll was $11.9 billion for fiscal year 2022, marking a 5.56% increase over the prior period. Sales tax revenue, which is the second largest source of revenue and includes the Measure GG ½ cents sales tax, also increased from pre-pandemic levels, along with other revenue categories such as transient occupancy tax, utility users tax, and franchise fees.
The City was allocated a total of $11.8 million of State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds, provided by the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) which was passed by the Federal government on March 11, 2021. The first tranche receipt of the Federal funding was $5.9 million and was received in July 2021. The second tranche was received in July 2022 for the upcoming fiscal year. The Newark City Council held a work session on October 7, 2021 to discuss options to spend the City of Newark’s $11.8 million allocation. The Council provided feedback to City staff and a proposed City of Newark ARPA Recovery Plan was developed. As approved by the City Council on October 28, 2021, this much needed funding allowed the City to hire positions which were frozen at the onset of the pandemic and also funded operating budgets across City departments which were cut in response to the pandemic and resulting decreased revenues.
While 41% of the ARPA funding went to restore positions and one year of department operating budgets, the majority of funding has been earmarked for the Newark community. $1.5 million of the ARPA funding was paid out during fiscal year 2021 as small business grants to 82 business who qualified for the needs-based funding. $1.5 million has been designated for affordable housing and another $1.3 million has been allocated to the Newark Family Resource Center and Bilingual Preschool/Promotores Training and Teen Program. Another $1.2 million is currently designated to improve broadband for the business and residential community. The balance will go to fund recreation program scholarships, non-profit agency grants, and other community projects.
Packet Page vi 32
Over the last two years, the City has observed prudent spending of operating budgets and only recently with improvements in the economy has started to hire new positions to provide for continued services to the public.
The City will continue to be prudent with its financial resources by closely monitoring impacted revenue as a result of the pandemic and maintaining sufficient reserves to help mitigate the City’s budget should another recession scenario occur.
Long-Term Financial Planning and Relevant Financial Policies The City established the General Fund Emergency Reserve, currently at $11.4 million, to be a set-aside for catastrophic events. The current Fund Balance Policy sets a 15% goal for this reserve based on the final operating expenditures and currently is at 17.9%. This amount is reflected as unassigned fund balance in the General Fund, but it is prudent fiscal policy to recognize that these funds are not intended for normal unanticipated expenditures.
The Fiscal Uncertainty Reserve was developed as a budget-balancing reserve, to mitigate a possible economic slowdown, recession, or other revenue losses. The current Fund Balance Policy sets a goal for this reserve at 10% of the final operating expenditures and is currently at $10.7 million, which is 16.8% of the fiscal year 2022 general fund operating expenditures. “Reserves” are the portion of a local government’s fund balance that are available to respond to the unexpected. Reserves provide a government with options to respond to emergencies and flexibility to buffer against shocks and other forms of risk and are integral to financial stability.
The General Fund Emergency Reserve and Fiscal Uncertainty Reserve are both higher than the goals specified in the current Fund Balance Policy as it is anticipated both reserves will be reassessed using the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) risk-based analysis framework to update the Fund Balance Policy during fiscal year 2023.
The Capital Project Reserve was established by the City to fund capital improvement projects. During fiscal year 2022, budgeted transfers of $21.5 million, mainly from Measure GG funds ($10.2 million), Public Safety Facilities Impact Fees ($4.8 million), and Community Service Facilities Impact Fees ($5.7 million) offset the negative fund balance in the Capital Project Fund at the end of fiscal year 2021, which were largely due to capital outlays for the new Civic Center project. Additional funding from the current year transfers will also fund remaining project expenditures.
The Pension and Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) Reserve had an initial deposit of $5.0 million when it was adopted in fiscal year 2017. Subsequent transfers were made to this reserve after the initial deposit, and during fiscal year 2022, the second additional discretionary payment was paid to CalPERS in the amount of $5.0 million. This is in addition to the $10.0 million payment made to CalPERS in fiscal year 2021. Following the pension and OPEB reserve policy, additional funding to this reserve will be made from salary savings and unallocated fund balance. At the close of fiscal year 2022, the pension and OPEB reserve had a balance of $7.7 million which will be used to offset future pension and OPEB required contributions.
Major Initiatives
The City of Newark is currently working on several exciting planning projects:

The vision of this project is to transform the greater NewPark Mall area into a premier, vibrant, urban place which includes modern residential areas, generous retail and dining opportunities, community venues, inviting pedestrian oriented streets and public spaces, and enhanced sidewalks, bicycle lanes, and transit facilities. In 2021, the City and Brookfield Properties, the owner of NewPark Mall, began implementing the NewPark Place Specific Plan which includes these two projects:
• Phase A Residential project – a residential/retail mixed-use project with a total of 319 dwelling units, approximately 3,700 square feet of ground floor retail, and approximately 12,900 square feet of amenities. The structure would be six stories with five residential levels situated over ground floor retail and amenities. Brookfield will provide 29 units of affordable housing, available to households at very low, low, and moderate-income levels.
• Costco - the proposed Costco retail warehouse and 32-pump retail fuel facility will be located at the southern portion of NewPark Mall on the site previously occupied by JC Penny and Burlington Coat Factory.
Bayside Newark Specific Plan
The Bayside Newark Specific Plan project area includes 233 acres of land that has contained various industrial, manufacturing, chemical processing and salt production facilities since the early twentieth century. The City envisions a transit-oriented community built next to a future Dumbarton Commuter Rail station, which will provide a broad range of new housing, retail and business opportunities in western Newark. Residential neighborhoods will be created that take advantage of transit investments to facilitate alternative commutes, dramatically increase pedestrian mobility, and to take full advantage of its location and surrounding open space resources. Since 2014, the city has approved six development phases, resulting in nearly 1,750 new residential units that have been completed or are under construction.
In 2022, the City Council approved the latest residential phase known as FMC Willow. The FMC Willow project would redevelop a 22.1-acre site near Willow Street and Enterprise Drive into a 370-unit multifamily community including 279 townhouse units, a 1.6-acre mixed-use area with 3,600 square feet of retail, a club room, fitness center, and 90 affordable units, a 5-acre community park (Grand Park), and approximately 1.8 acres set aside for the future transit station.
Old Town Newark Specific Plan
The Old Town Newark Specific Plan aims to bring together over 30 years of planning and analysis to implement long-standing goals for revitalization, including new public spaces, improvements to Thornton Avenue, and opportunities for new multifamily and residential mixed-use development. At the same time, this plan provides steps to maintain the existing housing stock and avoid displacement of existing residents and businesses.
Sanctuary and Sanctuary West
This is an approximately 950-acre site located in southwest Newark and planned uses for this area include a recreational amenity, approximately 400 housing units, and elementary school, open space wetland mitigation areas, as well as retention of existing light industrial, institution, and City Fire State, park, and community center uses.
Packet Page viii 34
In addition to the above planning projects, the City is working on the following projects:
• Housing Element Update – The Housing Element is part of Newark’s General Plan and identifies policies and actions to meet the housing needs of the City’s current and future residents at all income levels. The City’s Housing Element update is expected to be completed by Spring 2023, complying with State law that every City and County adopt a Housing Element every eight years.
The Housing Element update will contain components and analysis required by State law, as well as a comprehensive community engagement program.
• Cedar Community Apartments Homekey Project– Homekey is a statewide program to provide housing for low-income households and those who are experiencing homelessness. In January 2022, the City Council authorized staff to apply for a Homekey Round 2 program grant in an amount not to exceed $39 million and assigned $1.5 million from the City’s ARPA Recovery Fund and $4.5 million from the Housing Impact Fee Fund for the conversion of an extended stay hotel into affordable housing. In July 2022, the City received notification of a Homekey grant award in the amount of $38.2 million, the sixth largest award in the state among 108 total Homekey awards and the tenth largest project in terms of total affordable units created. This project award will fund the conversion of 125 hotel suites into permanent supportive and affordable housing apartment units into a community known as Cedar Community Apartments.
Awards and Acknowledgements
The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City of Newark for its Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. To be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, a government must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized, comprehensive annual financial report. The report must satisfy both generally accepted accounting principles and applicable legal requirements. The Certificate of Achievement is the highest form of recognition in the field of government accounting.
A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We believe that our current ACFR continues to meet the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting Program's requirement, and we are submitting it to GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate.
The preparation of the ACFR would not be possible without the dedicated efforts of the entire Finance Department staff. I would like to express special acknowledgment to our auditors LSL CPAs, for their cooperation and assistance.
Finally, sincere appreciation is expressed to the City Manager, the Mayor, and members of the City Council for their unfailing support for maintaining the highest standards of professionalism in review and management of the City's finances.

To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Newark, California
Report on the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of City of Newark, California, (the City) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022, and the related notes to the 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 of Newark, California, as of June 30, 2022, 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 (GAAS) 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 Auditor’s 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 audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these 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 date of the financial statements.
Packet Page 41
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Newark, California
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. 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 the GAAS 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 GAAS and 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.
Other Reporting Responsibilities
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion and analysis, budgetary comparison schedules, and required pension and other postemployment benefits schedules, as listed on the table of contents, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate 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 basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements.
We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
Packet Page 2 42
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Newark, California
Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements. The combining and individual fund financial statements and schedules (supplementary information) 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 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. In our opinion, the supplementary information is 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 section and statistical section but does not include the basic financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinions on the financial statements does not cover the other information, and we do not express an opinion or any form of assurance thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and consider whether a material inconsistency exists between the other information and the 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 December 16, 2022 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 solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
For the year ended June 30, 2022
As management of the City of Newark (City), we offer readers of the City's financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. Summary reports showing comparisons of current financial information with that of the previous year are included to enhance the clarity and usefulness of the reports. To gain a broad perspective of the City and its financial activities, we encourage the reader to consider the information presented here, in conjunction with the information that we have provided in the letter of transmittal presented at the beginning of this report.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Government-wide:
• At June 30, 2022, the assets and deferred outflows of resources of the City exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources by $229.6 million (net position). This is an increase of $32.2 million from the prior fiscal year. Of this amount, $88.3 million are restricted, and ($16.2) million represents unrestricted net position.
• Government-wide revenues include program revenues of $27.7 million and general revenues of $65.8 million, an increase of $1.6 million total revenues from the prior fiscal year. • Government-wide expenses totaled $61.3 million, a decrease of $8.5 million from the prior year's total of $69.6 million.
Governmental Funds:
• At the close of fiscal year 2022, the City's governmental funds reported combined fund balances of $148.8 million, an increase of $13.4 million in comparison with the prior fiscal year. • Governmental Fund revenues were $91.4 million in fiscal year 2022 and was relatively flat compared to fiscal year 2021.
• Governmental Fund expenditures were $77.9 million in fiscal year 2022, a decrease of $36.9 million compared to fiscal year 2021.
• Approximately 29.6% of the fund balance ($43.9 million) is unassigned and available for spending at the government's discretion, although $11.4 million is designated as emergency and $10.7 million as fiscal uncertainty reserves. The remainder of the fund balance is either non-spendable, restricted, committed, or assigned to indicate that it is 1) non-spendable form or legally required to be maintained intact ($0.1 million), 2) restricted for specific purposes ($81.9 million), 3) committed for specific purposes ($7.7 million), or 4) assigned for specific purposes ($15.2 million).
OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
This discussion and analysis are intended to serve as an introduction to the City's basic financial statements, which consists of three components: 1) Government-wide Financial Statements, 2) Fund Financial Statements, and 3) Notes to Basic Financial Statements. Required Supplementary Information is included in addition to the basic financial statements.

City of Newark
Management’s Discussion and Analysis, Continued
For the year ended June 30, 2022
The Government-wide Financial Statements provide readers with a broad overview of the City's financial position and activities, using accounting methods similar to those in private-sector businesses. The Government-wide Financial Statements include 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/outflows of resources, with the residual amount reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City is improving or deteriorating.
• The Statement of Activities - provides information on how the City's net position changed during the most recent fiscal year. All revenues earned and expenses incurred during the fiscal year are reported in this statement, regardless of the timing of related cash flows.
The Government-wide Financial Statements only present governmental activities because the City does not have business-type activities. The governmental activities of the City include general government, public safety, streets and parks, community development, and recreation. Property and local taxes, investment earnings, charges for services, operating and capital grants, and contributions finance these activities.
Fund Financial Statements
Funds are groupings of related accounts that are used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. The funds of the City can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds.
Governmental Fund Financial Statements are used to report essentially the same functions as governmental activities in the Government-wide Financial Statements. However, unlike the Government-wide Financial Statements, Governmental Fund Financial Statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as the available balances of spendable resources at the end of the fiscal year. This information may be useful in assessing the City's near-term financial requirements.
In order to better understand the City's long-term and near-term financial requirements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with the information provided for governmental activities in the Government-wide Financial Statements. Both the governmental funds' balance sheet and statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate the comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.
The City reports 31 governmental funds. The 11 major governmental funds are the General Fund, American Rescue Plan Act Fund, Public Safety Impact Fees Fund, Community Service Impact Fees Fund, Traffic Impact Impact Fees Fund, Housing Impact Fees Fund, Development Maintenance Impact Fees Fund, Park Impact Fees Fund, Measure B ACTIA 1986 Fund, Capital Projects Fund, and Public Financing Authority, which are presented separately in the Governmental Fund Financial Statements. Information on the other governmental funds is combined into a single aggregated presentation as non-major governmental funds. Individual fund data for each non-major governmental fund is provided in the form of combining statements as supplementary information elsewhere in the report.
Proprietary funds of the City consist of the internal service funds. The internal service funds are used to accumulate and allocate costs internally among the City's various functions. The City uses internal service funds to account for Packet Page 6 46
City of Newark
Management’s Discussion and Analysis, Continued
For the year ended June 30, 2022
its Equipment Replacement, Equipment Operations, Office Support, Building Maintenance, Public Liability SelfInsurance, and Workers' Compensation functions. Because these services predominantly benefit governmental activities, they have been included within governmental activities in the Government-wide Financial Statements.
The City's six internal service funds are combined into a single aggregated presentation in the Proprietary Fund Financial Statements. Individual fund data for the internal service funds is provided in the form of combining statements as supplementary information elsewhere in the report.
Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties external to the City. These funds are not included in the Government-wide Financial Statements because the resources of the fiduciary funds are not available to support the City's programs. The City's Fiduciary Fund Financial Statements provide financial information about the activities of the Special Assessment Districts, for which the City acts solely as a custodian.
These funds are reflected as Custodial Funds in the Statements of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position.
Notes to Basic Financial Statements
The Notes to Basic Financial Statements provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data presented in the Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements.
Supplementary Information
The Required Supplementary Information includes budgetary comparison schedules for the General Fund, American Rescue Plan Act Fund, Public Safety Impact Fees Fund, Community Service Impact Fees Fund, Park Impact Fees Fund, Housing Impact Fees Fund, Measure B ACTIA 1986 Fund, and the funding progress of the City's pension and OPEB plans.
Combined and individual fund statements and schedules provide information for non-major governmental and internal service funds and are presented immediately following the Required Supplementary Information.

As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of the City's financial position. The City's assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows by $229.6 million (net position), which was an increase of $32.2 million from the prior fiscal year. The increase in cash, decrease in long-term liabilities and increase in the deferred inflow of resources contributed to the net increase in net position year over year.
The most significant portion of the City's net position, $157.5 million, reflects its investment in capital assets(e.g., land, buildings, machinery, equipment, and vehicles), less any related outstanding debt used in acquiring those assets (net investment in capital assets). The City uses these capital assets to provide a variety of services to its residents; consequently, they 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 required to repay the outstanding debt must be provided from other sources since the capital assets cannot be used to liquidate the debt.
Another portion of the City's net position, $88.3 million, are resources subject to external restrictions and may only be used for the purpose intended by the entities that provided these funds to the City. The remaining balance of the City's net position of ($16.2) million represents the unrestricted net position, which, if this was a positive amount, may be used to finance daily operations without constraints established by debt covenants or other legal requirements.

City of Newark
Management’s Discussion and Analysis, Continued
For the year ended June 30, 2022
The City's expenses totaled $61.3 million in fiscal year 2022. These expenses were offset by program revenues of $27.7 million and general revenues of $65.8 million, resulting in a $32.2 million increase in the ending net position which was $229.6 million for fiscal year 2022.
Program Revenues – Program Revenues include fees and other specific charges designed to cover all or part of the costs of programs provided to the residents. Charges for services revenue was $9.1 million lower compared to the prior fiscal year and was largely due to the $8.8 million decrease in collective impact fees reflecting lower development activity from the prior fiscal year. Operating grants and contributions were $2.3 million higher and includes the first tranche receipt of State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds from the American Recovery Plan Act (ARPA). Capital grants and contributions also increased $2.6 million, namely to account for increased funding from Alameda County Transportation Commission (ACTC) Measure B.
General Revenues – The City’s general revenues were $6.0 million more compared to the prior fiscal year. Property tax revenues, representing the largest portion of general revenues were $1.4 million, or 5.8% higher, reflecting the continued increase of assessed value of secured property in the City. Sales tax revenue was $3.2 million, or 15.6% higher, million higher compared to the prior fiscal year, reflecting improving trends in consumer spending coming out of the pandemic. Likewise, travel occupancy tax at $4.2 million was $1.3 million higher compared to the prior fiscal year. The largest decrease in general fund revenues was in interest earnings, which dropped $0.9 million due mainly to negative fair market value adjustments.
Expenses – Expenses decreased by $8.3 million, mainly as the prior year included a $10.0 million additional discretionary payment to CalPERS while the current year included a $5.0 million payment. Putting aside these payments to CalPERS, expenses were $3.5 million lower in the fiscal year as city departments continue to spend prudently coming out of the pandemic.
FUND FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Governmental Funds
The City's governmental funds provide information on short-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. This information is useful in evaluating the City's financing requirements. In particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of the government's net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.
On June 30, 2022, the City's governmental funds reported combined fund balances of $148.8 million, an increase of $13.4 million in comparison with the prior fiscal year. Approximately 29.5% of the fund balance amount ($43.9 million) is unassigned and available for spending at the government's discretion. The remainder of the fund balance is either non-spendable, restricted, committed, or assigned to indicate that it is 1) non-spendable form or legally required to be maintained intact ($0.1 million), 2) restricted for specific purposes ($81.9 million), 3) committed for specific purposes ($7.6 million), or 4) assigned for specific purposes ($15.2 million). Further details of the fund balances can be found in Note 10 in the disclosures.
Governmental revenues in fiscal year 2022 were $91.4 million, similar to the prior fiscal year. The combined increase in property tax ($1.4 million), sales tax ($5.1 million), intergovernmental revenue ($2.5 million), and current service charges ($0.8 million) largely offset the decrease in licenses, permits which was down due to lower collective impact fees resulting from lower development activity during fiscal year 2022.
Packet 10Page 50
City of Newark
Management’s Discussion and Analysis, Continued
For the year ended June 30, 2022
Governmental expenditures in fiscal year 2022 were $77.9 million, a decrease of $36.9 million from the prior fiscal year. Most of this decrease was due to the drop in the Capital Project fund expenditures as last year included major capital outlays for construction of the new Civic Center. This project was largely completed during fiscal year 2021.
General Fund
The General Fund is the primary operating fund of the City. At June 30, 2022, the spendable assigned and unassigned fund balance of the General Fund was $52.3 million, while total fund balance was $60.2 million. The City Council has maintained operating reserves to provide the City a cushion for unexpected events, such as legal liability or costs associated with an unexpected disaster. The assigned fund balance also includes balances assigned for use in equipment replacement and the fire side fund.
The fund balance of the City's General Fund decreased by $1.3 million from fiscal year 2021. Overall revenues of $71.7 million were offset by $63.8 million of expenditures and net transfers out of $9.2 million. The General Fund also includes a restatement of the beginning fund balance for $0.8 million which was due from the correction of reported balances between the State Senate Bill Funds and the General Fund from the ERP conversion.
American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Fund
The American Rescue Plan Act Fund is new for fiscal year 2022 and reports Federal funds received in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. While the first tranche of $5.9 million was received in July 2021, only $2.8 million is reported as current year income to match the current year use of funds for expenditures and transfers (primarily to the General Fund). The remaining balance of $3.0 million is recognized as unearned revenue on the balance sheet and will be spent during fiscal year 2023.
Public Safety Impact Fees Fund
The Public Safety Impact Fees Fund accounts for fees which provide for funding for additional or improved police and fire services whose need is generated by new development within the City. Revenues of $0.6 million were added to the fund balance during fiscal year 2022, with no expenditures incurred, but $4.8 million was transferred to the Capital Projects Fund to support the New Civic Center Project expenditures.

Housing Impact Fee Fund
The Housing Impact Fees Fund is comprised of fees adopted by the City Council over several years, and accounts for fees collected into the City’s affordable housing fund that are restricted for and to be used solely to increase and preserve the supply of housing affordable to households of very low, low, and moderate incomes. The Housing Impact Fee Fund reported $6.4 million of revenue, with nominal expenditures. This revenue is considerably less than the prior fiscal year due to the decrease in development activity during fiscal year 2022.
Development Maintenance Impact Fee Fund
The Development Maintenance Impact Fee Fund accounts for fees received from developers and grants to maintain city-owned parks. Revenues over expenditures were $0.2 million in fiscal year 2022.
Park Impact Fee Fund
The Park Impact Fee Fund accounts for fees to be used in updating and implementing the Newark General Plan and zoning ordinance, which is needed by all new development within the City. Revenues were $1.8 million in fiscal year 2022, with no expenditures incurred.
Measure B – 1986 ACTIA Special Revenue Fund
The Measure B – 1986 ACTIA Special Revenue Fund accounts for funds previously received by the Alameda County Transportation Authority as part of a 1986 sales tax measure passed by the voters of Alameda County to finance various transportation improvements. However, the measure expired in 2002, and the City no longer receives sales tax revenues related to the measure. The expenditures in this fund during fiscal year 2022 were from street construction projects.
Capital Projects Fund
The Capital Projects Fund received $21.6 million of transfers, largely to fund capital outlay expenditures related to construction of the New Civic Center from the prior fiscal year and to fund remaining project costs.
Public Financing Authority Debt Service Fund
The City issued $63.0 million of 2019 Certificates of Participation (COPs) to help finance the construction of the new civic center in fiscal year 2020. Cumulative project expenditures over the three fiscal years total $78.4 million.
Proprietary Funds
The City's proprietary funds consist of the Internal Service Funds with a combined total net position of $10.5 million at the end of fiscal year 2022. Total operating expenses of $6.7 million and non-operating interest expense of $0.1 million matched operating revenues of $6.8 million.

GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS
The budgetary comparison schedule for the General Fund is presented in the Required Supplementary Information.
Fiscal year 2022 was the second year of the City's biennial budget, which was adopted on June 25, 2020. The General Fund revenue budget for fiscal year 2022 was amended during the year, increasing it by $11.6 million as the economy improved and negative effects of the pandemic waned. Actual revenues were $3.4 million over the final amended budget and $15.0 million over the original budget. This increase was primarily due to higher property tax assessed valuations, higher than anticipated sales tax revenue, and higher licenses, permits, and fees when the budget was last amended. Actual expenditures, excluding transfers out, for the fiscal year were $10.7 million under the final amended budget and $4.0 million over the original budget.
CAPITAL ASSETS
The City's capital assets include those assets that are used in the performance of the City's services. At June 30, 2022, the City's capital assets used in governmental activities amounted to $229.0 million, net of depreciation.
Capital assets for governmental activities are presented below to illustrate changes from prior fiscal year (amounts in millions):

LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS
On June 30, 2022, the City had long-term debt outstanding of $71.7 million compared to $73.0 million in the prior year.
The City's long-term debt obligations at June 30, 2022 and 2021 were as follows (amounts in millions):
Not included in the above total outstanding debt amount is the Area Improvement District Special Assessment Bonds issued to finance public improvements within specific districts in the City. At June 30, 2022, a total of $1.9 million in Area Improvement District debt was outstanding. This debt is secured by special assessments levied on the real property within the district issuing the debt. Although the City acts as the district's agent in the collection and remittance of assessments, the City is not obligated in any manner for repayment of these bonds.
Additional information on long-term obligations is provided in Note 5 to the Basic Financial Statements.
ECONOMIC FACTORS AND CURRENT BIENNIAL BUDGET
The City's adopted biennial budget for 2020-2022 recognized that:
• Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the economy will continue to be steady, but the imprint of the recession continues to play a role in future planning, making it prudent to continue using conservative projections and retain emergency reserves.
• Capital project expenditures will continue to focus on preserving City assets, meeting regulatory requirements, and safety issues. In addition, allocation of resources will be given to projects that improve service levels to the community, take advantage of outside funding matches, and implement community priorities.
Additional information about the City's economy and financial planning and policies is provided in the accompanying letter of transmittal in the Introductory Section of this report.

Net Change in Fund Balances - Total Governmental Funds $ 13,428,958 Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The basic financial statements of the City of Newark (City) have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in theUnited States(GAAP) as applied to governmental units. 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 describedbelow.
A. Reporting Entity
The financialstatements of the City of Newark include the financial activities of the City as well asthe financial activities ofits component unit,theNewark Public FinancingAuthority (Authority),which isthe entity forwhich the City isfinancially accountable. The Authority does notissue a separate financialstatement. The City Council serves as the governing board to the Authority and is controlled entirely by the City, which also performs all their administrative and accounting functions. Its financial activities have been aggregated and merged (termed“blended”) with those of the City in the accompanying financial statements. The Authority provides financing assistance to the City and has been included in these financial statements in the COPS Interest and RedemptionDebt Service Fund.
B. Basis of Accounting, Measurement Focus, and Financial Statement Presentation 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 activities for theCity. Fiduciary activities of the City are not included in these statements.
These Government‐Wide Financial Statements are presented on an “economic resources” measurement focusand 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 as prescribed by GASB Statement No. 34 regarding 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.
Packet 32Page 72
City of Newark
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the year ended June 30, 2022
The following interfund activities have been eliminated: Due to/from other funds, advances to/from other funds, transfers in/out, and interfund charges.
The City applies all applicable GASB pronouncements (including all NCGA Statements and Interpretations currently in effect).
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 fund balances 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.
The City reports the following major governmental funds:
The General Fund – is the general operating fund of the City. It is used to account for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund. The major revenue sources for this fund are property taxes, sales taxes, utility users tax, franchise fees, licenses, permits and fines, and other charges for services. Expenditures are made for public safety and other services not required to be accounted for in another fund.
American Rescue Plan Act Fund – accounts for State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds, as part of the American Rescue Plan, to support the response and recovery from the COVID‐19 public health emergency.
Public Safety Impact Fees Fund – accounts for fees which provide funding for the additional or improved police and fire services whose need is generated by new development within the City.
Community Service Impact Fees Fund – accounts for fees which provide funding for additional or improved governmental, social, and cultural facilities whose need is generated by new development within the City.
Traffic Impact Fees Fund – accounts for fees which provide funding for additional or improved traffic signal, operational, and infrastructure improvements whose need is generated by new development within the City.
The Housing Impact Fees Fund – accounts for fees collected into the City's affordable housing fundthat are restricted for and to be used solely to increase and preserve the supply of housing affordable to households of very low, low, and moderate incomes.
Development Maintenance Fees Fund – accounts for fees which provide funding to update and implement the Newark General Plan and zoning ordinance, which is needed by all new development within the City.
Park Impact Fees Fund – accounts for fees which provide funding for park land and new improvements.
Packet 33Page 73
City of Newark
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the year ended June 30, 2022
Measure B (1986 ACTIA) – This fund was previously reported under the Measure B (ACTC) Fund but was reclassified as its own fund during fiscal year 2020. This fund previously accounted for amounts receivedby ACTA (Alameda County Transportation Authority) as part of a 1986 sales tax measure passed by the voters of Alameda County to finance varioustransportation improvements.However,themeasure expired in 2002 and the City no longer receives sales tax revenues related to the measure. This fund now accountsfor Measure B grant funding.
The Capital Projects Fund – This fund accounts for financial resources used in major capital acquisition and construction activities and in the renovation, replacement, and maintenance of the City’s major capital assets.
The Public Financing Authority – accounts for funds reserved for the debt financing of the City’s New Civic Center. This fund will accumulate monies earmarked for principal and interest payments.
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 recorded when received in cash, except revenues subject to accrual (generally 60 days after year‐ end) are recognized when due. The primary revenue sources, which have been treated assusceptible to accrual by the City, are property tax,salestax, intergovernmental revenues, and other taxes. Expenditures are recorded in the accounting period in which the related fund liability is incurred.
Unearned revenues arise when potential revenues do not meet both the “measurable” and “available” criteria for recognition in the current period. Unearned revenues also arise when the government receives resources before it has a legal claim to them, as when grant monies are received prior to incurring qualifying expenditures.
In subsequent periods, when both revenue recognition criteria are met or when the government has a legal claim to the resources, the unearned revenue is removed from the Balance Sheet and recognized as revenue.
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.
Proprietary Fund Financial Statements
Proprietary Fund Financial Statements include a Statement of Net Position, a Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Fund Net Position, and a Statement of Cash Flows for each major proprietary fund.
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 Fund Net Position present 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.

City of Newark
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the year ended June 30, 2022
Internal service fund balances and activities have been combined with governmental activities in the Government‐Wide Financial Statements, and are comprised of the following funds:
The Internal Service Funds – account for equipment replacement and operations, office support, building maintenance, and public liability and worker’s compensation self‐insurance; all of which are provided to other departments on a cost‐reimbursement basis.
Operating revenues in the proprietary fund 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.
Fiduciary Fund Financial Statements
Fiduciary fund financialstatements consist of a Statement of Changesin Net Position and Statement of Fiduciary Net Position. The fiduciary funds are accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting and includes the City’s custodial funds. Custodial funds account for assets held by the City as an agent for individuals, private organizations andother governments. The City’s custodial funds account for the assets held by the City as an agent for the Area Improvement District. The financial activities of thisfund are excluded from the Government‐ Wide FinancialStatement but are presented in separate Fiduciary Fund Financial Statements.
C. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments
The City pools its available cash for investment purposes. The City’s cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash on hand, demand deposits, and short‐term investments with original maturity of three months or less from date of acquisition. Cash and cash equivalents are combined with investments and displayed as Cash and Investments.
In accordance with GASB Statement No. 40, Deposit and Investment Disclosures (Amendment of GASB No. 3), certain disclosure requirements for Deposits and Investment Risks were made in the following areas:
Interest Rate Risk
Credit Risk
Overall
Custodial Credit Risk
Concentrations of Credit 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.
In accordance with GASB Statement No. 31, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Certain Investments and for External Investment Pools, highly liquid market investments with maturities of one year or less at time of purchase are stated at amortized cost. Market value is used as fair value for those securities for which market quotations are readily available.
Packet 35Page 75
City of Newark
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the year ended June 30, 2022
The City participates in an investment pool managed by the State of California titled Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) which has invested a portion of the pooled funds in Structured Notes and Asset‐Backed Securities.
LAIF’sinvestments are subject to credit risk with the full faith and credit of the State of California collateralizing these investments. In addition, these Structured Notes and Asset‐Backed Securities are subject to market risk as to change in interest rates.
The City also participates in the California Asset Management Program (CAMP). CAMP is an investment pool offered by the California Asset Management Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a joint powers authority and public agency created by the Declaration of Trust and established under the provisions of the California Joint Exercise of Powers Act (California Government Code Sections 6500 et seq., or the “Act”) for the purpose of exercising the common power of CAMP participants to invest certain proceeds of debt issues and surplus funds. CAMP investments are limited to investments permitted by subdivisions (a) to (n), inclusive, of Section 53601 of the California Government Code.
D. Restricted Cash and Investments
Certain restricted cash and investments are held by fiscal agents for the redemption of bonded debt and for acquisition and construction of capital projects.
E. Receivables
During the course of normal operations, the City carries various receivable balances for taxes, interest, grants and special assessments.
F. Property Taxes
Alameda County assesses properties and bills, collects and distributes property taxes, including special assessments, to the City. The County remits amounts collected and handles all delinquencies. Secured and unsecured property taxes are levied on January 1 of the preceding fiscal year. Secured property tax is due in two installments, on November 1 and March 1, and becomes a lien on those dates. It becomes delinquent on December 10 and April 10, respectively. Unsecured property tax is due on July 1 and becomes delinquent on August 31. The term “unsecured” refers to taxes on personal property; not real estate, land or buildings.
These taxes are secured by liens on the property being taxed. The City does not participate in the “Teeter Plan” offered by the County, thereby retaining the right to any interest and penalties collected on the delinquent taxes.
Property tax revenues are recognized by the City in the fiscal year they are assessed, provided they are collected within sixty days after the end of the fiscal year.

Notes to Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the year ended June 30, 2022
G. Interfund Transactions
Interfund transactions are reflected as loans, services provided reimbursements or transfers. 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 funds” (i.e., the current portion of interfund loans) or “advances to/from other funds” (i.e., the noncurrent portion of interfund loans). Advances between funds, reported in the fund financial statements are not available for appropriation and are non‐spendable financial resources.
Services provided, deemed to be at market or near market rates, are treated as revenues and expenditures/expenses. Reimbursements are when one fund incurs a cost, charges the appropriate benefiting fund and reduces its related cost as a reimbursement. All other interfund transactions are treated as transfers.
Transfers between governmental and proprietary funds are netted as part of the reconciliation to the Government‐Wide Financial Statements presentation.
H. Capital Assets
All capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available.
Donated capital assets, donated works of art and similar items, and capital assets received in a service concession arrangement are reported at acquisition value. The City defines capital assets as assets with an initial, individual cost of more than $10,000 and an estimated useful life in excess of one year.
Depreciation is provided using the straight‐line method which means the cost of the asset is divided by its expected useful life in years and the result is charged to expense each year until the asset is fully depreciated.
The purpose of depreciation is to spread the cost of capital assets equitably among all users over the life of these assets. The amount charged to depreciation expense each year represents that year’s pro rata share of the cost of capital assets. The City has assigned the useful lives listed below to capital assets:
Buildings 60 years
Improvements other than buildings 20 ‐30 years
Infrastructure:
Streets and bridges 40‐50 years
Sidewalks, curbs, gutters, and walls 35‐45 years
Streetlights 25‐30 years
Traffic signals 20 years
Equipment 5‐30 years
Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed.
The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 34 requires the inclusion of infrastructure capital assets in local government’s basic financial statements. In accordance with GASB No. 34, the City has included the value of all infrastructure assets into its Basic Financial Statements. The City defines infrastructure as the basic physical assets that allow the City to function, which consists of the street system.

I. Compensated Absences
Compensated absences include unused accrued vacation, general leave, and compensatory time. The City’s liability for compensated absences is recorded at the Entity‐wide level in the Statement of Net Position for Governmental Activities. Compensated absences are liquidated by thefund that has recorded the liability. The long‐term portion of governmental activities compensated absencesisliquidated primarily by the General Fund.
J. Long‐Term Debt
Government‐Wide Financial Statements – Long‐term debt and other long‐term obligations are reported as liabilities in the appropriate activities.
Bond premiums and discounts, as well as amounts paid related to prepaid bond insurance, are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the effective interest method. Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable bond premium or discount. Other issuance costs are expensed in the current period.
Financed purchase obligations reflect lease payments where ownership of the asset being financed reverts to the City at the end of the lease.
Deferred charges arising from losses on defeasance of bonds are deferred and amortized over the shorter of the life of the refunded debt, or the life of the new debt, using straight‐line amortization.
Fund Financial Statements – The governmental fund financial statements do not present long‐term debt but are shown in the Reconciliation of the Governmental Funds Balance Sheet to the Government‐Wide Statement of Net Position.
Bond premiums and discounts are recognized during the current period as other financing sources or uses. Bond proceeds are reported as other financing sources. Issuance costs are recognized during the current period as expenditures.
K. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources
In addition to assets, the statement of financial position or balance sheet will sometimes report a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred outflows of resources, represents a consumption of net assets that applies to future periods and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then.
In addition to liabilities, the statement of financial position or balance sheet will sometimes report a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of resources, represents an acquisition of net assetsthat applies to future period(s) and so willnot be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time.
L. Net Position / Fund Balances
Government‐Wide Financial Statements
In the government‐wide financial statements, Net Position is the excess of all the City’s assets over all its liabilities, regardless of fund. Net Position is divided into three captions under GASB Statement 34. These Packet 38Page 78
City of Newark
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the year ended June 30, 2022
captions apply only to Net Position, which is determined only at the government‐wide level and are described below.
Net Investment in Capital Assets – Describesthe portion of Net Position which is represented by the current net book value of the City’s capital assets, less the outstanding balance of any debt issued to finance these assets.
Restricted Net Position – Describes the portion of Net Position which is restricted as to use by the terms and conditions of agreements with outside parties, governmental regulations, laws, or other restrictions which the City cannot unilaterally alter. These principally include developer fees and grant funds received for use on capital projects, debt service requirements, funds received for recycling programs and future waste disposal costs; and fees for use on emergency medical services.
Unrestricted Net Position – Describes the portion of Net Position which is not restricted to use.
Fund Financial Statements
GASB 54 established Fund Balance classifications based largely upon the extent to which a government is bound to observe constraints imposed upon the use of the resources reported in governmental funds. The Fund Financial Statements consist of Non‐spendable, Restricted, Committed, Assigned and Unassigned amounts as described below:
Non‐spendable Fund Balance – includes amounts that are (a) not in spendable form, or (b) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. The “not in spendable form” criterion includes items that are not expected to be converted to cash, for example, inventories, prepaid amounts, and long‐term notes receivable.
Restricted Fund Balance – includes amounts that can be spent only for the specific purposes stipulated by external resource providers, constitutionally or through enabling legislation. The restriction may effectively be changed or lifted only with the consent of resource providers.
Committed Fund Balance – includes amounts that can only be used for the specific purposes determined by a formal action of the City’s highest level of decision‐making authority, the City Council. Commitments may be changed or lifted only by the City Council taking the same formal action that imposed the constraint originally.
Assigned Fund Balance – includes amounts intended to be used by the City for specific purposes that are neither restricted nor committed. Intent is expressed by City Council or an official to which the City Council has delegated the authority to assign amounts to be used for specific purposes.
Unassigned Fund Balance – is the residual classification for the General Fund and includes all amounts not contained in the other classifications. Unassigned amounts are technically available for any purpose, and the General Fund is the only fund that reports a positive unassigned fund balance amount.
Packet 39Page 79
City of Newark
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the year ended June 30, 2022
The City established the following policies relating to its fund balance classifications:
Committed Fund Balances
Highest Level of Decision‐Making Authority – The City Council is the highest level of decision‐making authority in terms of established fund balance classifications and creating Committed Fund Balances. Formal Action Required – Ordinances are the highest‐level action taken by City Council that constitutesthe most binding constraint to establish, modify, or rescind a fund balance commitment. Timing – the City takes formal action to commit any resources as soon as possible upon determining its desire to take such action, but no later than June 30 of the fiscal year in which it applies in order for the action to be valid for the presentation of the annual report.
Assigned Fund Balances
Approved Authority – the City Council has delegated the authority to the City Manager to assign fund balance amounts to specific purposes when such policies are enacted by the government body. Specific Policies – the City Council may establish policies as needed to delegate authority to an appropriate official to assign resources to specific purposes in terms of creating, modifying or rescinding Assigned Fund Balances. Such policies are approved by the government body by Resolution.
Expenditure of Funds – Order of Expenditure
Restricted and Unrestricted Funds – when an expenditure isincurred for purposesfor which both Restricted and Unrestricted Fund Balances are available, the City considers that Restricted Funds are spent first until such funds are exhausted, at which time Committed, Assigned or Unassigned Funds are used. Committed, Assigned or Unassigned Funds – when an expenditure isincurred where there are no Restricted Funds available, and for which Committed and/or Assigned Fund Balances are available, the City exhausts Committed Funds first until such funds are exhausted and then exhausts Assigned Funds until such funds are exhausted.
Classification of Fund Balances
The City at least on an annual basis, and by virtue of the adoption of its annual budget, establishes a listing of all Fund Balances and their classifications.
M. New Pronouncements
For the year ended June 30, 2022,the City reviewedthe requirements ofGovernmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 87, Leases. The statement increases the usefulness of governments’ financial statements by required recognition of certain lease assets and liabilities for leases that previously were classified as operating leases. After careful review of the requirements, it was determined that the City’s various leases were exempt from this statement due to the combination of short‐term and financing lease‐to‐own contract terms of the City’s leases.

Bank balances and petty cash before reconciling items were $60,532,353 the total amount of which was insured and/or collateralized with securities held by pledging financial institutions in the City’s name discussed below.
The California Government Code requires banks and savings and loan institutions to secure City’s cash deposits by pledging securities as collateral. The Code states that collateral pledged in this manner shall have the effect of perfecting a security interest in such collateral superior to those of the creditor. Thus, collateral for cash deposits is considered to be held in the City’s name.

California law also allows institutions to secure City deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150 percent of the City’s total cash deposits. The City may and has waived collateral requirements for cash deposits, which are fully insured up to $250,000 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
The City pooled cash and investment of all funds, excluding restricted funds required to be held by fiscal agents under the terms of the City’s debt agreements. Investment income earned on pooled cash investment is allocated on a quarterly basis to the various funds based on the quarter‐end cash and investment balances.
Interest earnings on restricted cash and investments are credited directly to the related fund.

C. Risk Disclosures
Interest Risk – Interest rate risk is the fluctuation in fair value of investment due to changes in interest rates.
The City’s exposure to losses caused by rising interest rates is minimized by limiting the average maturity of the City’s investments to not exceed five years. The City had the following investment maturities at June 30, 2022:
Credit Risk – Credit risk is the risk of loss of value of a security or investment due to downgrade of its rating due to a change in the ability of the issuer to fulfill its debt obligation. With the exception of U.S. Treasury securities and authorized pools, no more than 50 percent of the City’s total investment portfolio will be invested in a single security type or with a single financial institution to reduce the City’s exposure to credit risks. The City’s investment in California Agency Investment Funds is not rated.
Custodial Credit Risk – The custodial credit risk for an investment is the risk that in the event of the failure of the counterparty, the City will not be able to recover the value of its investments or collateralsecuritiesthat are in the possession of an outside party. None of the City’sinvestments were subject to custodial credit risk.
D. Local Agency Investment Fund
The City is a voluntary participant in the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) that is regulated by California Government Code Section 16429 under the oversight of the Treasurer of the State of California. The balance is available for withdrawal on demand. The City’s investments with LAIF at June 30, 2022, include a portion of the pooled funds invested in Structured Notes and Asset‐Backed Securities. These investments include the following:
Structured Notes are debt securities (other than asset‐backed securities) whose cash flow characteristics (coupon rate, redemption amount, orstated maturity) depend upon one or more indices and/or that have embedded forwards or options.
Asset‐Backed Securities the bulk of which are mortgage‐backed securities, entitle their purchasersto receive a share of the cash flows from a pool of assets such as principal and interest repayments from a pool of mortgages(such as Collateralized Mortgage Obligations) or credit card receivables.
As of June 30, 2022, the City had $65,588,931 invested in LAIF, which had invested 1.88% percent of the pool investment funds in Structured Notes and Asset‐Backed Securities. The City reports its investment in LAIF at the fair value amount provided by LAIF, which is the same as the value of the pool share. The fair value of LAIF was calculated by applying a factor of .9871414 to the total investments held by LAIF.

E. California Asset Management Program
The City participates in the California Asset Management Program (CAMP). CAMP was established in 1989 and has been providing professional investmentservicesto California public agencies. The CAMP Pool is a permitted investment for all local agencies under California Government Code Section 53601 (p). The Pool is managed to earn a high rate of return while preserving principal, providing liquidity, and seeking a stable net asset value of $1.00. Similar to any type of investments, there are several factors such as interest risk, market risk, and etc. that could affect the Pool’s performance.
F. Investment Valuation
Investments (except for money market accounts, time deposits, external investment pools, and commercial paper) are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Recurring fair value measurements are those that Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statements require or permit in the statement of net position at the end of each reporting period. Fair value measurements are categorized based on the valuation inputs used to measure an asset’s fair value:
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observable inputs; Level 3 inputs are significant unobservable inputs.
The City’s investment in the State of California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), the California Asset Management Program (CAMP) and money market funds are not subject to levelling disclosure.

5. LONG‐TERM DEBT
2019 Certificates of Participation
On September 5, 2019, the City issued $63,345,000 of 2019 Certificates of Participation (COPs) to finance a portion of the construction costs of the new civic center facility, refund the City’s Certificates of Participation (2002 Silliman Community Activity Center/Old Town Fire Station Project), and prepay a 2012 lease agreement.
The 2002 COP refunding resulted in a deferred charge of $204,284, which is the difference between the $8,211,996 requisition price of the old debt and the $8,007,712 net carrying amount of the old debt. The refinancing of the 2002 COP and prepayment of the 2012 lease agreement resulted in a net present value savings to the City of $1,160,849.
The outstanding balance form this direct borrowing contains a provision that states in the event of default, there shall be no right under any circumstance to accelerate lease payments or otherwise declare the borrowing to be immediately due and payable. However, the borrower at its option may terminate the agreement and re‐lease all or any portion of the property.
Financed Purchased Obligations
On September 28, 2018, the City entered into a non‐cancelable lease agreement in the amount of $585,766 with Motorola Solutions, Inc. to acquire a radio communications system that would provide regional interoperability.
Annual lease payments are due on October 1 until 2023. Ownership of the radio system reverts to the City at the end of the lease.
On January 23, 2020, the City entered into a non‐cancelable lease agreement in the amount of $320,727 with PNC Equipment Finance, LLC to acquire a streetsweeper. Annual lease payments are due on August 23 until 2023.
Ownership of the street sweeper reverts to the City at the end of the lease.
On January 23, 2020, the City entered into a non‐cancelable lease agreement in the amount of $843,565 with PNC Equipment Finance, LLC to acquire a fire pumper. Annual lease payments are due on December 23 until 2028. Ownership of the fire pumper reverts to the City at the end of the lease.

Debt Service Requirements
Annual debt service requirements are shown below for all long‐term debt:
Area Improvement District Bonds with No City Commitment Area Improvement Districts (AID) Bonds were issued to finance public improvements within the District. Neither the City’s General Fund nor the full faith and credit of the City is pledged for the repayment of these bonds. The AID bonds will be repaid solely by special assessments levied on the properties within that District. The bonds are secured by the special taxes on those properties.
In May 2013, the AID 26 outstanding bonds of $8,262,257 were advance refunded to benefit property owners with lower debt service payments. The escrow funds were used to pay off the original 1998 bonds on September 2, 2013.

B. CalPERS Plan
General Information about the Pension Plan
Plan Description – All qualified permanent and probationary employees are eligible to participate in the City’s Miscellaneous Plan, agent multiple‐employer defined benefit pension plan administered by the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS), which acts as a common investment and administrative agent for its participating member employers. Benefit provisions under the Plan are established by State statute and Local Government resolution. All safety qualified permanent and probationary employees are eligible to participate in the City’s Safety Plan, a cost‐sharing multiple‐employer defined benefit pension plan, administered by CalPERS, which acts as a common investment and administrative agent for its participating member employers.
Benefit provisions under the Plan are established by State statue and Local Government resolution. CalPERS issues publicly available reports that include a full description of the pension plans regarding benefit provisions, assumptions and membership information that can be found on the CalPERS website.
Benefits Provided ‐ CalPERS provides service retirement and disability benefits, annual cost of living adjustments and death benefits to plan members, who must be public employees and beneficiaries. Benefits are based on years of credited service, equal to one year of full‐time employment. Members with five years of total service are eligible to retire at age 50 with statutorily reduced benefits (age 52 for Miscellaneous PEPRA members). All members are eligible for non‐duty disability benefits after 10 years of service.

Notes to Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the year ended June 30, 2022
Contributions – Section 20814(C) of the California Public Employees’ Retirement Law (PERL) requires that the employer contribution rates for all public employers be determined on an annual basis by the actuary and shall be effective on the July 1 following notice of a change in the rate. Funding contributions for both Plans are determined annually on an actuarial basis as of June 30 by CalPERS. The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to finance the costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, with additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. The City is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees.
Net Pension Liability ‐ The City’s net pension liability for the Plan is measured as the total pension liability, less the pension plan’s fiduciary net position. The net pension liability of the Plan is measured as of June 30, 2021, using an annual actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2020 rolled forward to June 30, 2021 using standard update procedures. A summary of principal assumptions and methods used to determine the net pension liability is shown on the following page.
Actuarial Assumptions – The total pension liabilities in the June 30, 2020 actuarial valuations were determined using the following actuarial assumptions:
Valuation Date June 30, 2020
Measurement Date June 30, 2021
Actuarial Cost Method Entry‐Age Normal Cost Method
Actuarial Assumptions:
Discount Rate 7.15%
Inflation 2.50%
Salary increases Varies by Entry Age and Service
Mortality 1 Derived using CalPERS' Membership Data for all Funds Post Retirement Benefit Increase Contract COLA up to 2.5% until Purchasing Power Protection Allowance Floor on Purchasing Power applies 1 The mortality table used was developed based on CalPERS’ specific data. The table includes 15 years of mortality improvements using society of Actuaries Scale 90% ofscale MP 2016. For more details on thistable, please refer to the December 2017 experience study report (based on CalPERS demographic data from 1997 to 2015) that can be found on the CalPERS website.
Discount Rate – The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.15 percent for the Plan. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions from plan members will be made at the current member contribution rates and that contributions from employers will be made at statutorily required rates, actuarially determined. Based on those assumptions, the Plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long term expected rate of return on plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.
Long‐Term Expected Rate of Return ‐ The long‐term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building‐block method in which expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class.
In determining the long‐term expected rate of return, CalPERS took into account both short‐term and long‐term market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund cash flows. Using historical returns of all of the funds’ asset classes, expected compound (geometric) returns were calculated over the short‐term (first 10 years) and the long‐term (11+ years) using a building‐block approach. Using the expected nominal returns for both Packet 51Page 91
City of Newark

For the year ended June 30, 2022
short‐term and long‐term, the present value of benefits was calculated for each fund. The expected rate of return was set by calculating the rounded single equivalent expected return that arrived at the same present value of benefits for cash flows as the one calculated using both short‐term and long‐term returns. The expected rate of return was then set equal to the single equivalent rate calculated above and adjusted to account for assumed administrative expenses.
The expected real rates of return by asset class are as followed:

Assessed Value of Taxable Property
Last Ten Fiscal Years
Source: Alameda County Assessor 2011/12 ‐ 2020/21 Combined Tax Rolls & Assessed Value of Taxable Property Report, The HdL Companies (a) In 1978 the voters of the State of California passed Proposition 13 which limited taxes to a total maximum rate of 1%, based upon the assessed value of the property being taxed. Each year, the assessed value of property may be increased by an "inflation factor" (limited to a maximum of 2%). With few exceptions, property is only reassessed as a result of new construction activity or at the time it is sold to a new owner. At that point, the property is reassessed based upon the added value of the construction or at the purchase price (market value) or economic value of the property sold. The assessed valuation data shown above represents the only data currently available with respect to the actual market value of the taxable property and is subject to the limitations described above. $0

Item F. 1.
DATE 01/26/2023
TO Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM Jayson Imai, Assistant City Engineer
SUBJECT Adopt resolutions initiation of proceedings for the formation of Area Improvement District No. 35 for Lindsay Tract, providing preliminary approval of the Engineer’s Report, declaring intention to order formation of the assessment district and to levy and collect assessments, establishing Property Owner Assistance Program for City-Sponsored Assessment Districts, and setting a public hearing date of March 23, 2023 SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
In the late 1990s the City secured property owner participation and support to form multiple Area Improvement Districts throughout the Old Town neighborhoods to help fund the construction of public sidewalk, drainage and roadway improvements.
Similarly, staff recommends that City Council initiate proceedings to form Area Improvement District No. 35 to partially fund the construction of the Lindsay Tract Roadway and Green Infrastructure Improvements Project (Lindsay Tract Project). The Lindsay Tract Project would install and perform much needed pavement rehabilitation, sidewalk, drainage, water line and green infrastructure improvements within the Lindsay Tract neighborhood, which includes portions of George Avenue, Magnolia Street, Olive Street and Mulberry Street.
If the City Council approves a Resolution of Intention, the formation of Area Improvement District No. 35 and the levy and collection of assessments to finance the construction of curb, gutter, driveway, and sidewalk improvements with the Lindsay Tract Project will be considered by the City Council at a Public Hearing scheduled for March 23, 2023. If, at the Public Hearing, Area Improvement District No. 35 is approved, the total amount that would be assessed to property owners within the District is $2,864,355. This would equate to an average annual assessment per parcel of approximately $1,400 each year for 30 years. The City will be responsible for $38,915.03 of general benefit received from construction of new curb, gutter, sidewalk, and driveway improvements in addition to approximately $3.6 million to construct additional roadway, storm drain, and green infrastructure improvements not included in the property owner assessments.
To help alleviate the burden caused by the assessments for certain qualified owner-occupied parcels, staff recommends establishing a Property Owner Assistance Program. Similar to the Property Owner Assistance Programs established in the late 1990s in conjunction with Area Improvement Districts formed throughout the Old Town neighborhoods, the Program would allow senior, disabled and low-income applicants to Packet Page 175
defer payment of their assessment interest-free until they sell or transfer their property.
The City would be obligated to pay up-front, any property owner assessments that are deferred through the Program. This could amount to upwards of an additional $1.45 million of City project cost.
Staff recommends that the City Council initiate proceedings for the formation of Area Improvement District No. 35 for Lindsay Tract, and by resolutions: (1) preliminarily approve the Engineer’s Report, (2) declare the intention to order the formation of the assessment district and to levy and collect assessments, (3) establish a Property Owner Assistance Program for City-Sponsored Assessment Districts, and (4) set the Public Hearing date on March 23, 2023.
BACKGROUND
The Lindsay Tract Roadway and Green Infrastructure Improvements Project (Lindsay Tract Project) would install and perform much needed pavement rehabilitation, sidewalk, drainage, water line and green infrastructure improvements within the Lindsay Tract area, which includes portions of George Avenue, Magnolia Street, Olive Street and Mulberry Street. The cost to construct all project improvements is currently estimated at $9.86 million. Of this, $3.01 million is attributable to the replacement of ACWD’s existing asbestos cement water mains and will be paid for in full by ACWD per a cooperative Cost Sharing Agreement approved by City Council in February 2021.
This results in $6.85 million of City project construction costs. Similar to what was previously done in the late 1990s to help fund construction of roadway and sidewalk improvements throughout the Old Town neighborhoods, funding for the construction of improvements associated with the Lindsay Tract Project will be subject to property owner participation and support. In response, City Council approved a Contractual Services Agreement with Francisco & Associates in July 2021 to evaluate the feasibility of forming an Area Improvement District to authorize assessments and bonding to finance the construction of curb, gutter, driveway, and sidewalk improvements within the Lindsay Tract neighborhood.
Francisco & Associates has prepared a Preliminary Engineer’s Report for the establishment of Area Improvement District No. 35 which, if approved, is required to partially fund the construction of the Lindsay Tract Project improvements using assessments. Approval of the Preliminary Engineer’s Report and adoption of a Resolution of Intention to establish assessments will authorize staff to mail the required notices and ballots to affected property owners, initiating the 45-day noticing period, in accordance with Proposition 218. The formation of Area Improvement District No. 35 and the levy and collection of assessments to finance a portion of the improvements will be considered by the City Council at a Public Hearing scheduled for March 23, 2023.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
Section 10100 of the Municipal Improvements Act of 1913 allows local government to Packet Page 176
Section 10100 of the Municipal Improvements Act of 1913 allows local government to finance the costs and expenses of certain capital facilities within or along its streets or any public right of way or easement. The formation of Area Improvement District No. 35 will provide for:
1. Removal of existing curb, gutter, and sidewalk
2. Installation of new concrete curb, gutter, and sidewalk
3. Removal of existing driveway and walkway sections
4. Installation of new concrete driveway and walkway conform sections
5. Payment of assessment administration, bonding and related costs Pursuant to the Municipal Improvement Act of 1913 and Article XIIID of the State Constitution (Proposition 218), a parcel’s assessment for any certain improvement shall be based on the special benefit that the property receives from the proposed improvements. Proposition 218 further states that a parcel's assessment may not exceed the reasonable cost attributed to the proportional special benefit conferred upon that parcel. The local agency levying the assessment must separate the general benefits to the public at large from the special benefits, and only the special benefits are assessable.
As discussed in the Engineer’s Report, the Lindsay Tract Project improvements provide special benefit to parcels within the boundaries of the proposed Area Improvement District No. 35 (the “District”) that is not realized by other parcels outside of the District or the general public. These special benefits are further described as “Primary Benefits” and “Enhanced Benefits.” Primary Benefits are those that will be realized by all properties within the District as a result of improved drainage throughout the neighborhood, the reconstruction and resultant prolonged lifespan of roadway pavement, and improved walkability. In addition, certain properties within the District will experience Enhanced Benefits above and beyond the Primary Benefits resulting from the construction of new curb, gutter, driveway, and sidewalk directly fronting their parcels, and conform work to match these new improvements to existing walkway and driveway improvements on their parcels. The total assessment of each single-family home parcel within the District is the sum of Primary Benefit and Enhanced Benefit assessments, plus their share of incidental expenses and financing costs associated with establishment of the District. Assessments per parcel would range between $9,581 and $54,074 with an average per-parcel assessment of $19,354. The total principal amount that would be assessed to property owners within the District, including incidental and financing costs, is $2,864,355. For assessments that are not paid upfront, the annual assessments per parcel to be placed on the Alameda County property tax bills are estimated to range between $700 and $4,000, with an average annual assessment of approximately $1,400.
In accordance with Proposition 218, a parcel’s assessment for any certain improvement shall be based on the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel by that improvement. As discussed in the Engineer’s Report, benefits realized from the Lindsay Tract Project improvements are generally limited to the residents living within the District boundaries, as it is highly unlikely that drivers from points outside the Lindsay Tract neighborhood would traverse through the Lindsay Tract neighborhood to Packet Page 177
Lindsay Tract neighborhood would traverse through the Lindsay Tract neighborhood to reach a destination also located outside of the Lindsay Tract neighborhood. However, to acknowledge the incidental occasion when this may occur, general benefit received from construction of new curb, gutter, sidewalk, and driveway improvements within the boundaries of the District was estimated at 2% of the costs of the improvements or $38,915.03 and will be paid for by the City.
If, after the close of the Public Hearing on March 23, 2023, a majority (weighted by proposed assessment amount) protest does not exist and the City Council orders the levying of the first annual assessments for Area Improvement District No. 35, property owners would have a 30-day period in which to elect to pay the entire principal assessment amount upfront and avoid added financing and administration costs associated with the issuance of bonds. In accordance with Division 10 of the Streets and Highways Code of the State of California (the “Improvement Bond Act of 1915”), bonds will be issued to cover all unpaid assessments. Bonds would be financed over a thirty (30) year term and paid annually through assessments placed on the Alameda County property tax bills.
Property Owner Assistance Program for City-Sponsored Assessment Districts Similar to Area Improvement Districts formed in the late 1990s within the Old Town neighborhoods, City staff recommends establishing a Property Owner Assistance Program to help alleviate the burden caused by the assessments for certain qualified owner-occupied parcels. For qualifying applicants, payment of their applicable assessment can be deferred interest-free to the time of the next sale or transfer of the property for which their application was submitted. To qualify for the deferment program, property owners must submit an application to the City with evidence of eligibility in accordance with at least one of the criteria described below.
For an applicant to qualify for full deferment of the assessment assigned, the City must determine the property is owner-occupied and supporting documentation demonstrates proof of at least one of the following:
At least one property owner on title is 65 years of age or older on or before April 24, 2023.
At least one property owner on title is permanently disabled and receiving disability benefits from Social Security, Workers Compensation, or an equivalent.
For calendar year 2022, household income earned for the property for which the application is submitted must be low income or below, pursuant to the income limits for Alameda County published by the California State Department of Housing and Community Development.

$76,750 $87,700 $98,650 $109,600 $118,400 $127,150
Packet Page 178
For an applicant to qualify for partial deferment of the assessment assigned, the City must determine the property is owner-occupied and the following is true:
The property for which the application is submitted must have a total assigned assessment of at least 25% above the average assessment of $19,353.75 for Area Improvement District No. 35, i.e., the total assigned assessment must be $24,192.19 or higher. For qualifying properties, the portion of the total assigned assessment above the average assessment can be deferred to the time of next sale or transfer of property.
FISCAL IMPACT
As discussed earlier in this report, if a majority (weighted by proposed assessment amounts) protest does not exist and the City Council orders the levying of the first annual assessments for Area Improvement District No. 35, the City will be responsible for $38,915.03 of general benefit received from construction of new curb, gutter, sidewalk, and driveway improvements within the boundaries of the District.
If the Property Owner Assistance Program is approved, the City would also be obligated to pay up-front, any property owner assessments that are deferred. Based on census data for the Lindsay Tract neighborhood, staff estimates that approximately 30%-40% of property owners within the boundaries of the District may qualify for full deferment of their assessment. This could amount to upwards of $1,146,000. In addition, if every property owner that qualifies for a partial deferral of their assessment through the Partial Assessment Deferment Program, a) takes advantage of program; and b) does not already qualify for full deferment, the City would have to pay as much as an additional $306,000.
The 2022-2024 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan includes sufficient funding for Lindsay Tract Roadway and Green Infrastructure Improvements, Project 1238 to pay for the City’s potential obligations that may result from the formation of Area Improvement District No. 35 and approval of the Property Owner Assistance Program using a combination of Alameda County Measure B/BB Sales Tax funds, Vehicle Registration Fee funds, SB1 Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account funds, and Highway Users Tax.

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
NEWARK OF INTENTION TO MAKE ACQUISITIONS AND
IMPROVEMENTS FOR THE PROPOSED AREA
IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT NO. 35 (LINDSAY TRACT)
WHEREAS, the City of Newark (the “City”), County of Alameda (the “County”), State of California, is a general law city under the laws of the State of California and is authorized to take actions pursuant to the Municipal Improvement Act of 1913, Division 12 of the Streets and Highways Code of California (the “Act”); and
WHEREAS, the City Council (the “Council”) of the City had determined a need for improved drainage throughout the Lindsay Tract neighborhood in the City (the “neighborhood”), prolonging lifespan of the pavement and ancillary improvements associated with the neighborhood streets, and improvement of walkability throughout the neighborhood, and therefore desires to commence and conduct proceedings pursuant to the Act in and for the establishment of an assessment district within the City to be known as “Area Improvement District No. 35 (Lindsay Tract)” (the “Assessment District”).
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Newark hereby resolves the following:
1. Each of the above recitals is true and correct and is adopted by the City Council of the City of Newark.
2. The public interest, convenience and necessity require, and the City intends to order the making of, the acquisitions and improvements described in Exhibit “A” (the “Improvements”) attached hereto and made a part hereof in and for the proposed Assessment District.
3. Except as herein otherwise provided for the issuance of bonds, all of the work shall be done as provided in the Act.
4. Serial and/or term improvement bonds (the “Bonds”) to represent unpaid assessments levied under the Act for the Assessment District will be issued under the Improvement Bond Act of 1915, Division 10 of the California Streets and Highways Code (the “Bond Law”). The Bonds shall be issued in such series and shall mature in such principal amounts and at such times (not to exceed 39 years after the September 2 next succeeding their date) and at such rate or rates of interest (not to exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law) as may be determined by this Council at the time of the issuance and sale of the Bonds.
The provisions of Part 11.1 of the Bond Law shall apply to the calling of the Bonds. It is the intention of this Council to create a special reserve fund for the Bonds under Part 16 of the Bond Law. The City will not advance available surplus funds from the City treasury to cure any deficiency in the redemption fund to be created with respect to the Bonds; Packet Page 181
provided, however, that this determination shall not prevent the City from, in its sole discretion, so advancing funds. The Bonds may be refunded under Division 11.5 of the California Streets and Highways Code or other applicable laws permitting refunding of the Bonds, upon the conditions specified by and at the determination of the Council.
5. In the opinion of this Council, the Improvements are of more than general or ordinary public benefit, and are of special benefit to the lands within the Assessment District. The costs and expenses of the Improvements are chargeable upon the Assessment District, the exterior boundaries of which are shown on a map thereof on file in the office of the City Clerk, to which reference is hereby made for further particulars. The map indicates by a boundary line the extent of the territory proposed to be included in Assessment District and, except as modified, shall describe the extent of the Assessment District.
6. This Council declares that all public streets, highways, lanes and alleys, and properties owned by any public agency or department of the United States of America, the State of California, the County, any city or special district, in the Assessment District and used for a public function shall be omitted from the assessment unless and to the extent found to be specially benefited by the Improvements.
7. The Improvements are hereby referred to Francisco & Associates, Carlsbad, California, being a competent firm employed for the purpose hereof as Engineer of Work for the Assessment District (the “Engineer of Work”), and the Engineer of Work is hereby directed to make and file with the City Clerk a report in writing (the “Engineer's Report”), presenting the following:
a. Maps and descriptions of the lands and easements to be acquired, if any. b. Plans and specifications of the Improvements, if not already installed, which need not be detailed and are sufficient if they show or describe the general nature, location, and extent of the Improvements. If the Assessment District is divided into zones, the plans and specifications shall indicate the class and the type of Improvements to be provided for each zone. The plans or specifications may be prepared as separate documents, or either or both may be incorporated in the Engineer’s Report as a combined document. c. A general description of works or appliances already installed and any other property necessary or convenient for the operation of the Improvements, if the works, appliances, or property are to be acquired as part of the Improvements. d. An estimate of the cost of the Improvements including the cost of lands, rights-of-way, easements, and incidental expenses in connection with the Improvements, including any cost of issuing, selling and delivering the Bonds.
e. A diagram showing, as they existed at the time of the passage of this Resolution, all of the following:
i. The exterior boundaries of the Assessment District.
Packet Page 182
ii. The boundaries of any zones within the Assessment District. iii. The lines and dimensions of each parcel of land within the Assessment District.
The diagram may refer to the county assessor’s maps for a detailed description of the lines and dimensions of any parcels, in which case those maps shall govern for all details concerning the lines and dimensions of the parcels. Each parcel shall be given a separate number upon the diagram.
f. A proposed assessment of the total amount of the cost and expenses of the Improvements upon the parcels or subdivisions of land in the Assessment District in proportion to the estimated special benefits to be received by each subdivision, respectively, from the Improvements. The assessment shall refer to the subdivisions by their respective numbers as assigned pursuant to subdivision (e). When any portion of the costs of the Improvements is to be paid from sources other than assessments, the amount of such portion shall first be deducted from the total estimated cost of the Improvements and the assessment shall include only the remainder of the estimated cost. The Engineer’s Report shall specify that property owners may apply with the City for a full or partial deferment of their total assessment for their respective parcel(s) by providing evidence of eligibility per the City’s Property Owner Assistance Program. g. A proposed maximum annual assessment upon each of the several subdivisions of land in the Assessment District to pay cost incurred by the City and not otherwise reimbursed resulting from the administration and collection of assessments or from administration or registration of any associated bonds and reserve or other related funds.
8. This Council will comply with Division 4 of the Streets and Highways Code of California under Part 7.5 of it. The Engineer of Work shall include in the Engineer’s Report the information required under Part 7.5, and for which the total true value shall be estimated as the full cash value of the parcels of land in the Assessment District as shown on the last equalized assessment roll of the County, or alternatively, by means of a current appraisal on such terms as may be prescribed by this Council.
9. Any excess realized from the assessment, including the proceeds of the Bonds, shall be used, in such amounts as this Council may determine, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Act.
10. The City will enter into agreement(s) with public agency(ies) or public utility(ies) under Chapter 2 (commencing with Section 10100) of the Act for the Improvements, to provide for the construction, ownership, operation and/or maintenance by such agency or utility of the Improvements, and for the providing of service to the properties in the Assessment District by such agency or utility in accordance with its rates, rules and regulations, and that such agreement shall become effective after proceedings have been taken for the levy of the assessments and sale of bonds and funds are available to carry out the terms of any such agreement. This Council determines that the public interest will not be served by Packet Page 183
allowing the property owners in the Assessment District to take any contract for the construction of the improvements and therefore that, under Section 20487 of the California Public Contract Code, no notice of award of contract shall be published.
11. All of the Improvements are to be constructed at the places and in the particular locations, of the forms, sizes, dimensions and materials, and at the lines, grades and elevations, as shown and delineated upon the plans, profiles and specifications to be made therefore and approved by the City. This Council does hereby adopt and establish as the official grades for the Improvements the grades and elevations to be shown upon the plans, profiles and specifications. All such grades and elevations are to be in feet and decimals thereof with reference to the datum plane of this City. Notice is hereby given of the fact that if the Improvements will result in a grade different from that formerly existing, the grades are hereby changed and the Improvements will be done to the changed grades.
12. In cases where there is any disparity in level or size between the Improvements and private property and where it is more economical to eliminate such disparity by work on the private property than by adjustment of the work on public property, it is hereby determined that it is in the public interest and more economical to do such work on private property to eliminate such disparity. In such cases, the work on private property shall, with the written consent of the owner of the property, be done and the actual cost thereof may be added to the proposed assessment of the lot on which the work is to be done.
13. The descriptions of the Improvements and the termini of the work for them are general in nature. All items of work do not necessarily extend for the full length of the description thereof. The plans and profiles of the Improvements and maps and descriptions referenced in the Engineer’s Report, hereinafter directed to be made and filed, shall be controlling as to the correct and detailed description thereof.
14. The City hereby confirms the appointment of Jones Hall, A Professional Law Corporation, San Francisco, California, as bond counsel.
15. Jayson Imai, Assistant City Engineer, is hereby designated as the person to answer inquiries regarding the assessment proceedings to be had herein, and may be contacted during regular office hours at City Hall, 37101 Newark Boulevard, Newark, California, 94560; telephone: (510) 578-4671; e-mail: [email protected].
