FORWARD:
This report provides City Council with an update on Economic Development activities and a near-term workplan framework, consistent with Council direction to prioritize economic and housing development as key components of long-term fiscal sustainability. These priorities were included in the FY 2025-26 Adopted Budget and reinforced during the November 2025 study sessions.
As part of the FY 25-26 budget, the City created an Economic and Housing Development Manager position that includes responsibility for housing-related development, in addition to Economic Development. This role is intended to improve coordination across departments and advance projects that will generate new property tax revenues, development impact fees, transient occupancy tax (TOT), and increased local economic activity.
As presented during the fiscal sustainability study sessions, Pacifica’s fiscal challenges are structural and multi-layered. Addressing these challenges requires coordinated strategies that are comprehensive, strategic, and sustained over time.
Within that framework, Economic Development, together with Housing Development, were Packet Pg. 6

identified as a critical long-term strategies to strengthen the City’s revenue base, support commercial vitality, and align land use decisions with fiscal outcomes.
Economic development in Pacifica should be viewed as a structural tool to expand the City’s fiscal capacity, support the existing and future business community, diversify local economy to support residents and visitors, and support Council-adopted strategic priorities. This report:
• Clarifies the City’s role in economic and housing development • Identifies current priorities consistent with the City’s Strategic Plan, and given limited staffing and financial resources
• Outlines workplan framework and strategic implementation approach Policy and Planning Foundation
Over the past several years, City Council has adopted a comprehensive set of long-range plans that collectively guide Pacifica’s future and influence the policy-level approach to land use, economic vitality, housing, climate resiliency, coastal stewardship, and fiscal sustainability.
Together, these documents establish a consistent policy foundation for focused investment in commercial districts, strategic housing production, visitor-serving uses, climate-resilient infrastructure, and a diversified revenue base.

Fiscal Sustainability Context
During the November 10 and November 24, 2025 Study Sessions, City Council reviewed Pacifica’s long-term financial outlook, including structural operating deficit, organizational staffing capacity constraints, and more than $370 million in unfunded capital and infrastructure needs. The discussion emphasized that the City’s fiscal challenges are layered and structural and not cyclical and therefore require coordinated strategic solutions.
Specifically, staff highlighted the following structural issues:
• General Fund revenues are not keeping pace with the cost of maintaining current service levels
• Staffing levels and compensation remain below peer cities, impacting recruitment, retention, and service capacity
• Deferred capital and infrastructure needs continue to compound over time, particularly given coastal conditions and construction cost escalation While revenue measures, fee adjustments, and land-use policy compliance efforts may provide near-term relief, they do not address or fundamentally change the structural nature of Pacifica’s fiscal condition. Sustainable fiscal health requires expanding and strengthening Pacifica’s economic base over time.
For this reason, staff presented the Integrated Fiscal Sustainability Framework, a five-element approach recognizing that 1) revenue stabilization, 2) organizational investment, 3) economic development, 4) housing production, and 5) strategic partnerships must function together to produce consistent fiscal outcomes.
Within this framework, the Economic Development and Housing Development components were further defined through the following strategic priorities:
• Advance high-impact Economic Opportunity Sites with measurable ongoing revenue Packet Pg. 8
Pacifica City Council 4
February 23, 2026
potential
• Revitalize commercial corridors through targeted reinvestment, placemaking, branding, and business attraction aligned with district character • Support small business health by improving permitting transparency, interdepartmental coordination, and access to technical resources
• Expand housing production to generate both one-time and recurring revenues while increasing the customer base that sustains local businesses • Strengthen mixed-use and infill development patterns that reinforce walkability, economic activity, and district vitality
• Retain residents and support the local workforce, reducing economic leakage to neighboring jurisdictions
• Leverage partnerships and financing tools to offset infrastructure and service costs associated with new development
Given the City’s fiscal realities, the Economic Development program must evolve and operate as a coordinated, policy-driven, and outcome-oriented function aligned with adopted plans and fiscal objectives. These strategies reflect a comprehensive approach to Economic Development that integrates land use policy, housing production, commercial revitalization, business support, and financing tools into a cohesive fiscal strategy.
The Workplan Framework outlined below reflects that shift toward a more strategic, resultdriven, measurable, and prioritized Economic Development approach.
DISCUSSION:
Economic Development: Definition, Importance, and the City’s Role Economic development includes activities that support existing businesses, attract targeted new investment, create jobs, and generate sustainable long-term revenue for the City. In Pacifica, economic development is not just about job creation or business attraction. It is about reinforcing the City’s economic foundation in a manner that supports service delivery, infrastructure maintenance, housing production, and long-term financial stability.
While private investment ultimately drives economic activity, the City plays an important role through policy direction, land-use planning and zoning, institutional knowledge and community relationships, and customer service policies.
Pacifica’s adopted planning documents, mentioned above, establish a policy foundation for targeted reinvestments. Through the Economic Opportunity Study, the City has identified highimpact redevelopment sites capable of generating long-term fiscal benefit, including the Cityowned site at 2212 Beach Boulevard, which is currently being solicited for development.
However, economic development in Pacifica extends beyond advancing major opportunity sites.
It is a comprehensive strategy that includes revitalizing commercial corridors, supporting small businesses, improving the permitting process, and strengthening coordination across City departments. It also involves serving as a consistent point of contact for businesses and Packet Pg. 9
Pacifica City Council 5
February 23, 2026
developers to help navigate City processes efficiently and transparently.
Pacifica’s approach to economic development must be both Citywide and district-specific. Each commercial district, Sharp Park, Rockaway, Linda Mar, Pedro Point, and Manor, including Fairmont, has distinct characteristics and opportunities. Together, these business districts form an interconnected local and visitor-serving economy that supports residents, businesses, and contributes to a vibrant and fiscally stable community with high quality of life.
Given limited staff and financial resources, the City’s economic development efforts must be focused and strategic, and will be further evaluated and prioritized as part of the upcoming Strategic Planning and budget development process. Therefore, the economic development activities outlined below are aligned with already established policy direction and selected based on their ability to produce measurable short- and long-term fiscal and community benefit.
Economic Development Workplan Framework
As discussed during the Fiscal Sustainability Study Sessions, Pacifica’s fiscal condition requires thoughtful, multi-leveled solutions. Economic and Housing Development are two core components of the City’s five-element Fiscal Sustainability Framework and must operate as structured, outcome-oriented strategies rather than isolated initiatives.
Consistent with the principles outlined in Attachment 1 - Update on Economic Development Work Plan (originally presented as Attachment G to the November 10, 2025 Council Agenda Summary Report), the City’s Economic Development program has been organized into four core goals.
Together, these four goals form a comprehensive strategy to expand Pacifica’s economic base, strengthen commercial vitality, support housing production, and advance long-term fiscal sustainability.
This Economic Development Work Plan, included in Attachment 1, is designed to be comprehensive and to include a wide range of initiatives that will, collectively, position the city to receive high quality jobs, investment, and tax revenue. However, due to the City's limited staff and financial resources, it will be important to focus efforts strategically in the short term.
Accordingly, during FY 2025-26 and 2026-27, staff plans to focus on a prioritized number of tasks and projects based on:
a) projects that are realistic to complete within a 12-month timeframe, thus showing visible economic progress and improvement; and
b) projects that, while they are long-term in nature, offer the opportunity for the City to spur new investment and developer interest in Pacifica.
In alignment with Pacifica’s 2023-2030 Strategic Plan Goal 5 Broaden public communications and collaboration, many of these activities have been carried out in partnership with the Council’s Economic Development Committee, existing small business associations such as Seaside Merchants Association, as well as broader business community, residents, and the Pacifica’s real estate development community. Priorities identified for FY 2026-27 focus areas Packet Pg. 10
Pacifica City Council 6
February 23, 2026
will be implemented consistent with additional direction provided through the upcoming strategic planning and budget development process.
Goal 1 - Catalyst Projects & Opportunity Sites
This goal focuses on high-impact redevelopment opportunities capable of generating significant new investment activity, tax revenues, and long-term fiscal benefit. Given Pacifica’s structural fiscal challenges, targeted real estate and mixed-use projects must serve as economic anchors that strengthen the City’s revenue base and community identity.
The projects listed below are sourced from the 2023 Economic Opportunities Study and related adopted planning documents.
FY 2025-26 Priorities
➢ 2212 Beach Boulevard. This site represents one of the City’s most significant near-term opportunities to generate new property tax increment, Transient Occupancy Tax (if hotel use is included), sales tax, and long-term visitor spending. o Evaluate RFQ/P responses and select a developer for the exclusive negotiations agreement
➢ Pacifica Manor Shopping Center. Pacifica Manor is an underperforming commercial center with strong locational potential for reinvestment or adaptive reuse to improve sales tax performance, reduce vacancy, and increase assessed valuation. o Re-engage property owners and merchants
➢ Downtown / Sharp Park & Rockaway. This remains a priority because it represents Pacifica’s most visible commercial core and visitor-serving districts. Targeted, lower-cost placemaking and economic revitalization initiatives in Sharp Park can generate immediate returns by strengthening existing businesses, increasing visitor spending, improving sales tax revenue, and commercial performance and positioning the district for longer-term private reinvestment.
• Wayfinding signage pilot initiated by the Economic Development Committee • Installation of new trash cans
• Compiling vacant property sites data and engaging with property owners regarding repurposed uses (placemaking)
• Initiate conversations with City of San Francisco regarding Sharp Park Golf Course ➢ Other Commercial Centers are prioritized to strategically position Pacifica in regional retail and investment markets. Proactive broker engagement and professional market materials increase the likelihood of attracting revenue-generating tenants, strengthening sales tax performance and enhancing assessed valuation across commercial districts. o Develop Pacifica marketing data materials for retailers and brokers (ICSC and related outreach)
FY 2026-27 Focus Areas (Subject to Strategic Planning & Budget Direction) Packet Pg. 11
Pacifica City Council 7
February 23, 2026
➢ 2212 Beach Boulevard:
o Negotiate transaction terms and development agreements; initiate environmental review
➢ Pacifica Manor Shopping Center:
o Continue engagement with property owners; explore investor interest aligned with Housing Element and General Plan
➢ Downtown / Sharp Park:
o Continue beautification and activation of economic vibrancy efforts o Engage investors/developers consistent with Housing Element designations o Continue discussions regarding Sharp Park Golf Course economic opportunities ➢ Other Commercial Areas:
o Strengthen broker relationships
o Track vacancies and building conditions
o Conduct a feasibility study of potential financing tools: Property and Business Improvement Districts (PBID), Enhanced Infrastructure Financing Districts (EIFD), and Community Facilities Districts (CFD) to support infrastructure improvements and catalyze private investment in priority areas.
Goal 2 - Business Attraction
Business Attraction focuses on bringing new businesses, tenants, and investment to Pacifica through coordinated marketing, tourism strategies, outreach to brokers and developers, and support for events that drive foot traffic and economic activity.
A strong attraction strategy expands Pacifica’s economic base, increases sales tax and TOT performance, strengthens visitor-serving uses, and enhances commercial vibrancy.
FY 2025-26 Priorities
➢ Develop high-quality marketing materials featuring Pacifica businesses to support broker outreach and investor recruitment
➢ Analyze tax data / performance by business district to see trends and inform targeted attraction and business retention strategies
➢ Analyze sales leakage from Pacifica to neighboring jurisdictions to identify categories where spending occurs outside the City, and use this data for strategic business attraction
➢ Explore internship partnerships and technology solutions to enhance social media presence and expand digital engagement capacity for visibility, community events and promotions, and visitor awareness
➢ Complete revamp of the Visit Pacifica website to increase marketing analytics capabilities and enhance ROI. Collaborate with the SF Peninsula partner to better position Pacifica within the Pacifica Tourism Marketing District (PTMD) to maximize visitor-serving impact
Packet Pg. 12
Pacifica City Council 8
February 23, 2026
➢ Build relationships with media outlets and pitch tourism/small business stories to increase media exposure to elevate Pacifica’s image as a coastal destination and business-friendly community
➢ Explore seasonal events (e.g., expanded MerMay or July 4th concept) to explore scalable event concepts that increase foot traffic and support small business revenue ➢ Continue supporting the planning and execution of Pride event to reinforce Pacifica’s identity as a welcoming coastal destination
FY 2026-27 Focus Areas
➢ Continue coordinated marketing and media outreach efforts to sustain visibility in regional tourism and retail markets
➢ Strengthen relationships with retailers and brokers to maintain active engagement to ensure Pacifica remains competitive in site selection discussions and filling commercial vacancies
➢ Coordinate tourism events regionally and cross-jurisdictionally (e.g., Half Moon Bay collaboration) to expand visitor draw and shared marketing impact ➢ Support signature community events, including Fogfest, Tree Lighting, and seasonal programming to reinforce the community identity and impact on small businesses Goal 3 - Business Retention
Existing businesses are foundational to Pacifica’s fiscal stability, employment base, and community character. Business Retention efforts focus on proactive communication, technical assistance, and coordinated problem-solving and district-level improvements to support local entrepreneurs, reduce vacancies, and prevent economic leakage to neighboring jurisdictions.
FY 2025-26 Priorities
➢ Finalize and kick off implementation of Business Visitation Program policy to understand trends, identify business challenges early, connect business owners to resources, and build City-business relationships
➢ Continue engagement with business stakeholders and key commercial districts (Rockaway, Seaside Merchants Association, Linda Mar, etc.) to address operational concerns, identify opportunities for reinvestment and improved vitality ➢ Promote County and Renaissance-led business education sessions to improve longterm viability and competitiveness ➢ Finalize bike rack installation plan to improve accessibility and connectivity to commercial areas, supporting increased customer traffic FY 2026-27 Focus Areas
➢ Fully implement Business Visitation Program to transition from policy adoption to measurable performance tracking and outcomes reporting
➢ Explore formation of a Property-Based Business Improvement District (PBID) to evaluate whether this self-assessment district tool could provide sustainable funding for commercial improvements and marketing in Rockaway and Sharp Park Packet Pg. 13
Pacifica City Council 9
February 23, 2026
➢ Continue technical assistance partnerships (Small Business Development Center, Renaissance Center, Workforce Development Board) to enhance business resilience and workforce capacity
➢ Expand connectivity and pedestrian improvements supporting commercial areas to increase foot traffic, ensure safety and support long-term commercial performance Goal 4 - Planning, Analysis & Policy Development
Long-term fiscal sustainability requires an efficient, and supportive development environment.
This goal focuses on strengthening the City’s permitting processes, cross-department coordination, financing tools, and long-range policy alignment to make it easier and more predictable to invest and do business in Pacifica. A streamlined and transparent development processes reduce common obstacles and project delays, increases investor confidence, and ultimately accelerates revenue-generating activity.
FY 2025-26 Priorities
➢ Establish clearer public-facing permitting resources (e.g., “Before You Sign a Lease,” “Guide to Permitting”) to improve transparency and reduce common barriers ➢ Explore self-serve counter and improved development transparency tools to improve customer experience and reduce processing delays
➢ Initiate cross-departmental coordination and developer liaison support to integrate the economic development considerations in planning discussions ➢ Participate in regional platforms to advertise unfunded capital projects to attract external funding and private investments
FY 2026-27 Focus Areas
➢ Continue coordination with Planning/Community Development on Housing Element priority sites to align entitlement processing and infrastructure planning to facilitate planned housing development
➢ Evaluate financing mechanisms such as Enhanced Infrastructure Financing Districts (EIFDs), Community Facilities Districts (CFDs), and related financing tools to assess the City’s capacity to establish financing districts that align land use policy with infrastructure funding strategies and long-term fiscal sustainability goals (coordinates with Goal 1 above)
➢ Pursue grant opportunities for infrastructure and commercial corridor improvements to reduce General Fund exposure while advancing capital investments.
Additional detail regarding each Economic Development Workplan Goal is provided in Attachment 1 - Update on Economic Development Work Plan, originally presented as Attachment G to the November 10, 2025 Council Agenda Summary Report.
As stated above, Pacifica’s fiscal challenges are structural and, therefore, require deliberate, coordinated, and sustained action. The Economic Development Workplan Framework presented in this report reflects a structured, prioritized and outcome-driven strategy to expand the City’s economic base, support housing production, and advance commercial vitality in alignment with Packet Pg. 14
Pacifica City Council 10 February 23, 2026
Council-adopted goals.
Staff will continue refining and advancing these priorities through the upcoming Strategic Planning and budget process and will return to Council with measurable progress updates, and any actions requiring policy direction or funding consideration.

Subject: Update on Economic Development Work Plan
Introduction
The City Council has given increased priority to economic and housing development, recognizing that they are critical economic drivers to help expand Pacifica’s economic base, achieve long-term fiscal sustainability, and address the City’s structural budget deficit.
During the past three months, staff from the City Manager’s Office, along with consultant support and staff from other departments, developed a focused Economic and Housing Development Work Plan to guide staff efforts and maintain progress on the City’s most urgent development projects.
This memo provides a brief Executive Summary of the Work Plan, for Council’s information as an attachment to the report for the Fiscal Sustainability Study Session scheduled for November 10.
The full, detailed Work Plan will be shared with Council in early 2026, and after the hiring of the new Economic and Housing Development Manager.
Basic Principles for the City’s Economic Development Work Plan Economic Development is a critical professional function of cities to help communities achieve financial stability and improve quality of life. Economic Development accomplishes these goals by:
• Attracting investment to revitalize the commercial areas of Pacifica, including housing and mixed-use development;
• Creating opportunities for quality jobs, business ownership, and wealth creation; • Supporting local businesses;
• Planning and “placemaking” to create healthy, beautiful, vibrant public places that promote a sense of community;
• Attracting shoppers and visitors to support local businesses; and a

Attachment: Attachment 1 (6157 : Economic Development Workplan and Activities) 2 • Generating tax revenues from new businesses, investment, and housing and mixed-use construction.
Staff has developed an Economic and Housing Development Work Plan that is consistent with the Council-adopted Strategic Plan and that reflects ongoing Economic Development efforts. The Work Plan reflects a strategic approach to leveraging limited resources toward the City’s highest priorities, like revitalizing commercial areas, accelerating housing and mixed-use opportunities, and enhancing Pacifica’s visibility as both a destination and a place to live, work, and invest.
Given the City’s critical fiscal environment and the evolving opportunities and challenges that shape local economic conditions, this Work Plan is intended to remain fluid and adaptive, allowing staff to adjust priorities and timelines as new conditions, opportunities, or constraints emerge.
Proposed Economic Development Work Plan
The proposed ED Work Plan organizes staff’s efforts into four major work areas, or goals:
Goal #1: Catalyst Projects & Opportunity Sites
These are real estate opportunities that, if developed properly, would create a major “anchor” and generate significant new jobs, investment, construction, tax revenue, support for local businesses, and enhancement of Pacifica’s image and visibility.
A. 2212 Beach Blvd. – Site due diligence, market analysis, feasibility analysis, CEQA analysis & compliance, infrastructure planning, marketing the site to the development community, selecting a developer, refining the project concept, and negotiating development agreement(s).
B. Pacific Manor Shopping Center – Facilitating meetings with property owners to improve the center signage, building exteriors, tenant mix, and to explore restructuring the ownership interests to improve center management. In addition, the City could identify outside investors who may be willing to help redevelop the center.
C. Downtown / Sharp Park – Work includes: Palmetto streetscape improvements; attracting high quality eating & drinking businesses, retail, and cultural/entertainment uses; events; exploring popups, kiosks, and other interim uses of vacant lots; upgrades to Pacifica Pier to create a visitor destination; work with the City of San Francisco to explore opportunities to improve Sharp Park Golf Course; pursuing opportunities to develop vacant downtown lots; and exploring a potential Property-Based Business Improvement District (PBID) to help fund marketing, events, and other enhanced services.
D. Other Opportunity Sites & Districts – Supporting the property owners and brokers representing Linda Mar Shopping Center, Pedro Point Shopping Center, the Rockaway District, and other important commercial areas, to pursue business retention, attraction, and development opportunities.
Goal #2: Business Attraction
Strategic marketing and other activities to help pave the way for new businesses, jobs, and investment.
a
Packet Pg. 17
Attachment: Attachment 1 (6157 : Economic Development Workplan and Activities) 3 A. Marketing & Tourism – Developing an integrated strategy of brochures, social media, press, website content, signage, and other initiatives to build the city’s image and identity as a business and tourist destination; coordinating with Pacifica Tourism and Marketing District (PTMD), Half Moon Bay and other partner organizations to explore better & more coordinated marketing of events & develop a comprehensive destination marketing strategy.
B. Events – Coordinating with event organizers to improve existing events and harness greater marketing, tourism, and economic development benefits from existing events; exploring the addition of events to drive increased tourism; working with PTMD to jointly fund coordinated marketing and planning of regional events; exploring a partnership to link the Mavericks event with Pacifica; and hosting rotating pop-up markets in Downtown, Rockaway, Pacific Manor, or other districts to drive foot traffic and attract visitors.
C. Outreach & Assistance to prospective & incoming new businesses – Exploring opportunities to upgrade an existing hotel to a national franchise; partnering with a marketing firm to manage PTMD and revamp the VisitPacifica website; outreach to hotel developers; coordinating with local property owners and brokers on retail attraction; attending a retail attraction conference (ICSC); pursuing opportunities to attract health care and medical office uses; regional partnerships; and looking at opportunities to locate a research or academic institution in Pacifica.
Goal #3: Business Retention
Working with existing local businesses to help them solve financial or other problems, and to expand their business.
A. Communication & Collaboration with Local Businesses – Monthly business goodwill visits; meeting with commercial brokers to discuss trends, issues, and opportunities; holding focus group meetings with various business groups to better understand their concerns and ways the City can support them; and developing a line of brochures and social media posts on a variety of helpful topics for local businesses.
B. Technical Assistance to local entrepreneurs & business owners – Partnerships with the Small Business Development Center (SBDC), Renaissance Center, SCORE, financial nonprofits and/or U.S. Small Business Administration to provide seminars, one-on-one business consulting, access to capital, or other assistance; partnerships with the Workforce Development Board, Skyline Community College, or other institutions to provide job training and placement; and developing a matching grant program to help local businesses fund façade improvements and/or tenant improvements.
Goal #4: Planning, Analysis, Grants & Policy Development Developing long-term plans, policies, grant applications, and initiatives that will make it easier and more efficient to do business in Pacifica, position the City to gradually improve its business community, and generate funding for improvements to commercial districts.
A. Improving the City’s Permit & Development Process – Coordinating with the Community Development Department on major new developments; facilitating communication during the permit process to identify and resolve permit issues; serving as City ambassadors with property and business owners during the permit process; facilitating discussions to resolve permit issues; partnering with San Mateo County Health a
Packet Pg. 18
Attachment: Attachment 1 (6157 : Economic Development Workplan and Activities) 4 Services to educate local businesses on the County requirements for food businesses; and working with the Community Development Department to explore ways to improve the planning review/approval process.
B. Grants, Financing Districts & Revenue Generation Initiatives – Work includes:
researching Federal, State, and/or County funding opportunities for high-priority infrastructure projects; exploring a potential Property-Based Business Improvement District (PBID) in Downtown/Sharp Park and/or other districts; exploring potential opportunities for a Community Facility District (CFD), Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District (EIFD) and/or other revenue-generating initiatives.
Coordination with the Economic Development Committee
The Economic Development Committee (EDC) has its own work plan, which is separate from the Work Plan described above, but includes tasks that can complement the Economic and Housing Development Work Plan. As directed by City Council, the EDC is a citizen volunteer organization that provides:
• Policy-level input and recommendations to City Council; • Help in sharing information between between the City and the business community; • Help connecting staff with businesses, property owners, and community organizations; • Advocacy for Pacifica’s business community.
By contrast, the Economic and Housing Development Work Plan, as described above, includes many technical tasks such as market analysis, real estate negotiations, marketing, creating financing districts, or helping to retain a local business.
Although the work of the EDC is different and separate from the work performed by City staff, it is important for staff and the EDC to communicate and coordinate with each other. Staff looks forward to periodically updating the EDC as the Work Plan is implemented, and to seek the EDC’s feedback on an on-going basis.
Conclusions & Next Steps
In launching and carrying out this Work Plan, several logistics must be considered:
• As mentioned above, the Work Plan is a living document that must be updated frequently.
While it is always useful to have a “look ahead” for how staff will plan to focus their time, it is critical to allow staff the flexibility to revise the Work Plan to respond to unforeseen circumstances.
• Early on during the launch of the Work Plan, it will be important to carry out a few tasks that will be easy wins. By “easy wins” we refer to small, high-priority tasks that can be completed quickly, with little or no cost, and will make a noticeable, public impact, and thereby build trust, credibility, and good will among the local business community. • Several of the items in this Work Plan will require the City Council to appropriate funds.
Depending on the City’s budgetary conditions, staff may pursue a mid-year budget appropriation to fund a package of Economic Development initiatives, such as:
o Site engineering & due diligence for the 2212 Beach Blvd. project ($75,000) o PBID formation consultant & related expenses ($75,000) o Phase 1 streetscape improvements for Downtown / Sharp Park ($50,000) a

SPECIAL PRESENTATIONS
A. Special Presentation - HIP Housing Annual Calendar
Peggy Jensen, HIP Board Member, presented the HIP Housing Annual Calendar.
Councilmember Bier remembered the work they did together with Homes for All which was good work for our community. She felt that was important to bring people together to have important discussions about homes.
Vice Mayor Wright thanked Ms. Jensen as housing is important to all councilmembers and they appreciate people like her trying to make it happen and remember that kids are part of this. He thanked Ms. Jensen for all her hard work and he looked forward to working with her in the future.
Councilmember Beckmeyer thanked Ms. Jensen for the calendar and asked if it is correct that HIP Housing has a new home.
Board Member Jensen stated HIP Housing moved in December and it is a hub for housing needs for San Mateo County and located across the street from San Mateo City Park. Clients have the opportunity to walk and wonderful space and rooms to be counseled.
Councilmember Espinosa thanked Ms. Jensen for the calendar and having the kids dream about the homes and wished they could be real homes for them. She thought having a place to go to every day is important and when you come home you feel safe.
Mayor Boles asked about the home share partnerships as an opportunity to educate the community if someone has a room free in their house or a senior needing help to pay their mortgage and exchanging gardening services.
Board Member Jensen stated that the HIP Housing Home Share Program is one of the premier programs provided in the nation. They look for people who have a room in their home and someone to help pay for rent and provide services to offset rent and someone to live with them.
She thinks about 350 people are involved in a home share program and there are many more people who are interested in sharing a home. The other thing that makes the HIP program so important is that there is much screening done to make sure it is a good match between the home provider and the person living with them. They provide ongoing check-ins to make sure everything is going well to make sure they have living agreements before moving even occurs. It is a very supportive successful program. What impressed her about the home sharing program was it essentially created more homes for people at an extremely low cost and a way to help people stay in their homes that they may have had for a very long time. They are also allowed to meet each other before making a commitment.
There were no public comments.

CONSENT CALENDAR
City Manager Woodhouse stated, for Item #7 regarding 570 Crespi, there is a correction to an exhibit indicating the rezoning boundary that extends on to the City-owned parcel. The corrected exhibit has been distributed and is available for the public at the meeting.
Mayor Boles opened public comments.
Cindy Abbott, Pacifica, stated she was speaking on No. 5, offshore oil drilling, and she thanked everyone who brought it forward and put together the letter. She shared her thoughts on our state standing firm against any new offshore oil drilling along California’s coast.
Cassandra, San Mateo County, stated she is present on behalf of Supervisor Ray Mueller in support of No. 5. She stated that Supervisors Mueller and Speier have authored a resolution in strong opposition to the federal administration’s oil and gas program which would open up California coast to offshore drilling and detailed this process and rationale involving the coast from Pacifica to Santa Cruz County line.
Gail Benton Shoemaker, Pacifica, stated she is speaking as a member of Tree City Pacifica regarding the impact fee report on the Consent Calendar. She shared an issue in the language with the tree ordinance that negated the two-for-one replacement. She requested that the wording be changed to remove the loophole in the language.
Suzanne Moore, Pacifica, stated she is speaking on Item No. 7, and shared her concerns about the City’s sale of City land to for-profit contractors. She also agreed with the previous speakers on Item No. 5.
Mayor Boles closed public comments.
Vice Mayor Wright agreed with public comment on Item No. 5 and recognized staff for the work.
Mayor Boles also supported Councilmember Beckmeyer who wanted to put this on the agenda.
She thinks the language came from CalCities Coastal Cities working group to advocate for fighting with the federal government trying to take over our coast for oil drilling. It is important to have representation at the state level and she felt it was beautifully worded. She stated that they are all trying to do the right thing in the state and there are opportunities for offshore wind and other things for clean energy that we can look at, but oil is not what we need with potential threats to our coastline, economy and environment. She is sure our legislators will be looking at this from a legal angle, but it is important to speak up and support them.
Councilmember Beckmeyer stated, when our legislators want to take action, having a significant number of cities echoing and leading on this issue helps bolster what they are trying to do. She also echoed Vice Mayor Wright in thanking staff for the action. She thought the Environmental Quality Committee will have something to say about it too and she was glad Mayor Boles is on that committee and looked forward to hearing about it after her first meeting.
Mayor Boles stated that she will note at this time that she will vote no on Item No. 7.
Councilmember Espinosa stated she is also voting no on Item No. 7.
Councilmember Bier moved to approve the consent calendar; seconded by Vice Mayor Wright.

City Manager Woodhouse, PW Dep. Director Yip, and GHD representative Aaron Holloway presented the staff report.
City Manager Woodhouse stated we are engaged in continuing advocacy with Congressman Liccardo who held a press conference in Pacifica regarding the Building Resilient Infrastructure Community’s grant and the importance of that program. He stated the federal environment is challenging right now. It will have to be a combination of local, regional, state, and federal funding to fund an $80 million construction project for a small City, which is the case across the country with most major infrastructure projects. Because of the significant three breaches in a row in fall and voids created, that creates an opportunity for us again in reaching out to state legislators, as well as federal, to emphasize the emergency importance of funding this critical infrastructure project which ties in to the importance to us about the shoreline adaptation planning work that we will be commencing and committed to with the Coastal Commission through our Local Coastal Land Use Plan, as well as our Coastal Access Resiliency Program. It is hard to think decades into the future and take care of those needs proactively if we cannot manage the immediate emergency situations we are confronted with.
Vice Mayor Wright asked for an estimated guess on how long we have left on the sea wall and the pier, considering how many breaches we have had, before it falls into the ocean.
Consultant Halloway stated we had to estimate that as part of the FEMA application and he recalls that, on the north side of the pier, the sea wall is in worse shape and where a lot of the failures occurred. About five years ago, the structural team did an estimated assessment of a 5-10 year time frame on that. He added that, after every failure that happens, more of the wall is filled with slurry. A large portion of that breach has been repaired. He thought the south wall is structurally stable, and the team estimated a longer time frame for that structure, such as 10-20 years.
Vice Mayor Wright asked about the pier.
Dep. Director Yip stated that we had recently completed a structural assessment of the pier after the rail had failed. There are different portions of the pier, and certain portions are in worse condition than others. The portion that is worse is the one closer to the oceanside, the L portion of the pier. The reason we have closed it off is because there are several components in that structural assessment that are very critical failures. In terms of the use, we will need to address all of the critical components of the pier. As far as how much longer we can keep the pier open, staff and GHD cannot put a definitive number on it. We can do a structural assessment after every winter, and that is typically what they have been doing to assess damages to it, to see how long we can keep half of the pier open.
Vice Mayor Wright concluded that those are not eligible for emergency repair.
Dep. Director Yip stated we need an emergency to be declared in order to apply for emergency funds. There is one from the State that we applied for and are still waiting to hear back for that.
Vice Mayor Wright asked, on the nourishment, how long do we expect that nourishment to last.
Consultant Halloway stated that the beach nourishment is an important part for public access and trying to improve opportunities for beach access. He stated it is not vital to the protection scheme, but it does help and provides a buffer as fewer. Those structures are designed to still provide protection if the beach goes away. He thinks the estimates are in the 3-10 years range. He stated that a lot of it depends on the type of material we place.

Vice Mayor Wright asked if there was any consideration of putting in any groins to help hold it in.
Consultant Halloway stated not now, as those were evaluated in phase 1 and some of the alternatives that were considered groins included offshore break waters and reefs, etc. He stated that those will work but they are also costly because of the amount of rock and material required in the structures.
Vice Mayor Wright assumed he was in active communication with the Coastal Commission in developing these plans.
Consultant Holloway agreed, stating that they had several meetings with them throughout this last phase.
Vice Mayor Wright asked if they gave due consideration to the redirection of the wave energy belt from the new base of the pier and from the change of the shoreline on the south end. He asked what that wave energy will do on either side.
Consultant Holloway stated that is part of the reason we want to keep the alignment as it is today on the north side of the pier. On the south side, because there is more persistent beach there, there is not as much wave reflection off the structure. By pulling that structure back, he thinks it is going to have very little effect on wave reflection south of the pier.
Vice Mayor Wright asked if there was any consideration to the future of making a bigger base so 50 years from now, or if sea level rise occurs faster, we have an option to top it an extra foot.
Consultant Holloway stated that there has been thought that, ideally, if we had permission and permits to elevate the wall in the future, that we would be modifying just the concrete structure on top, not having the reef drill more piles, etc.
Dep. Director Yip referenced the sand retention/reef concepts in public comment and pointed to the alternative analysis report (Section 3.5, pages 25 and 26) on the BBIRP website for the major deliverables on phase one project. In the report, it has a cost analysis for the beach nourishment plus sand retention of $111 million with life cycle cost of $235 million. Roughly, the reef or sand retention structures can cost upwards of $80 to $100 million. In our 35% basis cost estimate, the sand nourishment first placement is only around $14 million. It costs $80 to $100 million to put something in there to protect it. As Consultant Holloway mentioned, the upper end of it is on page 26 on how long it will last. The sand nourishment can last up to ten years. If you have a retention structure, it might extend it double, but it does not prevent sand from leaving.
Vice Mayor Wright asked about axillary benefits to having a reef as opposed to not having a reef, such as capturing some of the wave energy further out before it comes in and therefore putting less pressure on the sea wall structure doing less damage to our coast.
Dep. Director Yip referred to a study we are doing with the Army Corps because we have our CAP 204 study with the Army Corps to place dredge material and sand nourishment on Beach Boulevard. In one of the studies, with installation of the sand retention structure reef, although it retains somewhat on the north end, it prevents some of it from going to the south end of the site.
Vice Mayor Wright asked if that is or is not a temporary condition, as there is a sand river that travels down the coast perpetually.

Dep. Director Yip stated he would have to confirm with them on how, but they made it sound like it would just prevent sand from traveling. You will get more in the north but there would be less.
Mayor Boles referred to the north wall having about five years left and asked about percentage of the length and how much have we replaced.
Dep. Director Yip stated it is mainly the northern wall that has the breaches, and the main reason is because it does not have some foundation structure below it. Once the bottom of the wall gets undermined, all the soil washes out. The panels themselves have not necessarily been replaced.
When it washes out, we first plug the bottom of the hole and then plug the bottom with concrete and then we fill the rest of it with slurry mix. We will not be able to reinforce because there are shoring requirements for people to go into the hole. After it is all tiered, we put asphalt on the top.
That is the extent of the repairs we have done since 2016.
Mayor Boles asked how much of the length of the north wall has been repaired in this way.
Dep. Director Yip stated roughly 12 breaches ranging around 15 feet wide, 15 feet in length.
Mayor Boles referred to the timeline two years for environmental review and permitting and two years for construction drawing and permitting at the minimum, but the construction period is not included in that either. She thought, if the sea wall has five years left, it will not last.
Dep. Director Yip stated we can continue doing these spot repairs, which roughly range over $60,000 every time it breaches, but we do not know if there is going to be a big one that will require panels in the future. We talked about phasing the project because it is so large and possibly doing the north wall first as it is in worse condition.
Mayor Boles thought, in regards to funding difficulties, it might make sense at some point to look at a remediation temporary fix for the whole length of the north wall. She thought it was cheaper do to things as a larger project than piecemeal.
Mayor Boles then opened public comments.
Jim Kremer, Pacifica, stated he has been involved in the City’s coastal planning as a resident since 2017. He shared his skeptical thoughts on the City’s vision of long-term coastal planning and asked for alternatives to hard armor for the infrastructure protection, considered additional forces threatening new wall failure, and highlighted the Clarendon Gap as a weak link.
Cindy Abbott, Pacifica, stated she aligned herself with Mr. Kremer’s comments. She referred to Mr. Holloway’s noting the tension and balancing input from the community with an engineering project. She emphasized the importance of nature-based solutions and reviewing solutions for the whole of Pacifica.
Kimberly Finale, Pacifica, emphasized the importance of nature-based solutions and shared concerns about funding for Phase 2A. She stated we need long-term planning to address the pending failure of the seawall.
Tygarjas Bigstyck, Pacifica, referenced the concept of the living reef as a mitigation for the wave impacts. He thought it would make sense to have an analysis of the methodology and its cost and spoke in favor of nature-based solutions as well as a holistic view.

Mayor Boles closed public comments.
Dep. Director Yip stated that most grants request to see some nature-based solutions but the main reason this time no new projects were awarded for the past fiscal year.
Mayor Boles asked if Consultant Holloway can talk about dunes as part of the project and explain more of the terminology.
Consultant Holloway stated nature-based shorelines are popular and are the first option for shoreline protection. The main problem is that they need space. Nature-based solutions on an open coast means using sand, cobble, and dunes to provide a buffer against coastal hazards.
He stated that sand cobbles fluctuate widely, such as the beach changes on a seasonal basis at the south end, and that is the kind of space we need for that solution which we do not have. He stated that, at the south end, we pulled the wall back and there is potential for a nature-based solution there. We can plant dunes and try to vegetate them but he is hesitant to commit to a restored dune area; if that is the primary public access and recreational area, it may not be compatible with the restored dune. He stated it is a tradeoff. He does not want to mislead anyone by using the term nature-based solutions; thus they used beach nourishment which will be the most viable. Due to wave energy, the cobble was going to need to be big and look a lot less like cobble and a lot more like boulders. If that is the shoreline, it will be hard to walk on, enter the water with boulders rolling around, etc. He stated that those were some of the tradeoffs we struggled with in considering nature-based shorelines at this location.
Mayor Boles stated that the detailed description referenced cobble on the south but they are 12- 18 inches and not walkable. She was on the cobble beach at the harbor recently restored and Coastal Commissioners went out and were proud of that but they could see the rocks that were little and they can walk on them. If that beach is going to be usable as a walking surface to the public, the sand nourishment is a critical part of that.
Consultant Holloway stated that their conclusion at this phase is coarse sand is going to be the best natural material to place there.
Mayor Boles concluded that we do not know if that sand is available as it is part of the Army Corps study. She stated that, in the budget now, we have one beach nourishment of about $14 million and, if we need it again in 3-10 years, it will be a continual cost.
Dep. Director Yip agreed, stating that the 35% cost estimate is only for one initial placement for $14 million; however, our goal is to include close to $30 million of operation maintenance to get funded for that so we can replenish the sand several rounds. He stated this $30 million is on top of the $80 million construction project.
City Manager Woodhouse stated he was going to comment from the perspective of funding and funding raising strategy. He stated that it is true that, in many grant funding requirements today, there is an emphasis on nature-based solutions. However, there is a lot of dialogue in the State about neighborhood-specific solutions that fit what that neighborhood needs. San Francisco just had a sea wall project approved. The decision is driven by the engineering needs, the infrastructure protection needs, and what the neighborhood needs. You do not design a project based on how you think you will get funding; you design a project for what it needs and you go after that funding and figure it out. That is part of the perspective on this as well.

Mayor Boles understands that, adding that with San Francisco, they are funding it themselves.
She asked if oyster reefs or building habitat into seawalls was more favorable to the Coastal Commission and what kind of input have we gotten from the Coastal Commission regarding how to guide the design in a more favorable way.
Consultant Holloway recalls from Coastal Commission staff that it is mostly concerns about hard armoring and conflicts with Coastal Act policies. The good news is that much of that will resolve with the LCLUP as it provides an allowance for protection in certain areas and resolved what is existing development and what is not. He thinks Coastal Commission appreciates that the promenade and access to the pier are important coastal resources. They have not spent a lot of time talking about concrete materials and if there is a way to make anything more nature friendly rather than just rock and concrete.
Mayor Boles stated our community is very interested in whatever those options are. She then referred to Mr. Bigstyck asking about the offshore reef. OneShoreline is looking at taking on that project to look at the design and modeling and talking to UC Santa Cruz about doing some work and it is sounding positive that they are able to get some funding. It could be something that helps dissipate that wave energy and holds the sand in place a little longer and could be a benefit in addition to the work.
Mayor Boles and Councilmember Beckmeyer referred to Mr. Kremer’s questions for feedback.
Consultant Holloway stated pressure on the back side of the wall is important and the structural engineers are looking at what is the water level we can expect. Given the amount of overtopping that we would expect in a rainfall event and cracks on the promenade that would develop, the assumption is that it is saturated up to the surface, hence we assume the worst case, which is the best way to do it. The wall will be designed with a drainage layer behind it with some weepholes to ideally relieve that pressure.
Councilmember Bier asked how many grants have we applied for in the past year.
Dep. Director Yip stated, in terms of grant applications, there are not many available and we have only had two for this project. In terms of exploring, we have a grant consult called Townsend and we meet up with them every month to discuss grant opportunities. We have to make sure that we are going to be competitive before devoting resources to go after some of these grants.
Councilmember Bier knows how hard it is to apply for funding and she knows how hard it is to not receive that funding and she thanked them.
Vice Mayor Wright asked City Attorney Kenyon if we have any experience on what happens when the ocean takes any of our houses and does that cost us any money.
City Attorney Kenyon stated that it does raise legal issues. The biggest exposure is inverse condemnation. It depends on how the overflow or topping and what was created with the event.
If it destroys a street, there is a concern and the property no longer has access and a concern that the property has been inversely condemned. There are concerns to why that may not be the case. That is the biggest legal issue she can see now with a catastrophic event of that nature.
Vice Mayor Wright asked if we have spent any money on legal fees addressing any of these kind of things or just one property.

City Attorney Kenyon stated that we had two properties that eroded the land around it and have fallen into the ocean and the property owner could not afford to raise the building. She added that the City had to step in in order to save the beach and the environment, the City had it demolished.
She stated that owner went into bankruptcy and we did not collect those.
Vice Mayor Wright asked if we spent money on legal fees and doing the reclamation.
City Attorney Kenyon responded affirmatively.
Vice Mayor Wright assumed that, in the event we were to abandon doing something to protect the shoreline, it would be more expensive than the sea wall. He is in favor of doing a reef offshore to mitigate some of that wave energy coming in as a more nature-based solution. It would then allow the river of sand to continue to flow from the north down to the south. He would not mind if there were some groins to slow it down on the way to build up more sand on the beach to give us more protection from those waves in addition to the sea wall to protect us from those big storm events and buy us time to get those nature-based solutions in place at the same time. He asked if we have considered applying for funding that would include something like the reef in addition to the sea wall or do we see it as two separate things.
Dep. Director Yip stated, in terms of the analysis of the reef, there were extensive studies done in Phase1 and, in terms of the alternatives, this is not the end. We are going to have to do it again when we get into environmental documentation alternatives as part of EIRs. When we do the Coastal Commission permitting, we will have to look at our alternatives again. He stated that saying it is not part of the project now does not mean it is not going to be part of the project. Right now, with our CAP 204 studies with the Army Corps, they are looking into reefs as they can do shoreline improvements. The dredging is a main component that has to be part of the CAP 204 but we do have additional funds that can fund shoreline improvement. The max is $15 million and we are unlikely to get a reef from the CAP 204 but they will study it; we will have additional studies and it is not going to be the end of the reef discussion yet. If we can get it funded with the grant, we will be happy to apply for it. Now, we need some momentum to get the construction funded and we lost momentum by losing the BRIC grant that is $15 million. He stated there are close to 30 structures that are directly fronting Beach Boulevard. In terms of the utilities and the cost and everything in the ground there, that was part of a no project alternative in Phase 1. The number for the life of the project can exceed close to $243 million and that is why we are proceeding with the wall as the wall is $80 million and there is a benefit cost. It is there to justify the project and that does not include property acquisition and eminent domain and legal fees as needed to acquire some of these properties.
Vice Mayor Wright thought we would lose millions in property tax revenue over ad infinitum on 30 properties. He referred to staff talking about cost benefit analysis, etc., and he is thinking about the reef as being a solution that is going to prevent us from having to spend $14 million to renourish time and time again. He asked if building a self-sustaining project once is better than repeating the same old thing again and again that is not working.
Dep. Director Yip thought it might be helpful to see the graph from the alternative analysis, which shows we are only going to reduce the amount of the sand nourishment by 50%. If the cost of sand nourishment is $14 million, and if it costs you $80 million to do a reef, you can basically do close to 5-6 sand nourishments for that cost. If they last for ten years, you have 50-60 years versus building the sand nourishment with the retention. You still have to do sand nourishment because the sand is still going to travel off the northern side and you still have to place sand there.
There is also the wave energy in this area that is incredibly high and that was something that the

Attachment: Attachment A: Minutes of 1-12-2026 City Council Special & Regular Meeting (6156 : Approval of Minutes) City Council Regular Meeting 12 January 12, 2026
Army Corps commented when they visited our site. The wave energy is incredible out there as they are crashing onto the pier and damaging the concrete structure. Due to the wave energy, it does not make the reef as cost-effective because they may not last as well, and that is to be studied again as we approach these other phases.
Councilmember Espinosa wondered what we can do now that is not that expensive that can save us or at least repair or not get worse. She emphasized the issue is funding.
Councilmember Beckmeyer asked the City Manager what we spent on doing something this year so far on the wall.
City Manager Woodhouse clarified the life of the seawall is not only five years. There are breaches, we repair them, and those repaired spots are stronger. The concept that there is just five years left in the wall is a misconception about the wall. The 2016 storms and breaches tore out part of the wall and that has been repaired and we have not had any problems in that exact repair spot. Mayor Boles asked a good question about what linear footage have been bolstered up in repairs, and we can look at that and see what the percentage of it is. Since 2016, we have had to spend $7 million in breaches of the sea wall and repairs. We can continue to do that but we need to be working very actively through these phases on a large, complicated infrastructure project to get to the point of replacement of the wall, as well as all the other aspects of the project.
There is no magical solution to prevent the overtopping and breaches that might happen. There are some concepts about some flooding, plastic tubings that can be put out on the beach, etc.
The question is whether it is going to handle the intensity of some of the storms that we receive.
He did not think there is any easy, immediate solution, but we are doing what we can do and it is working to maintain and protect until this critical project comes to fruition.
Councilmember Espinosa thinks that we are okay now and we will repair things as we go.
Mayor Boles thought we had not yet gotten money back from FEMA for some sand issues a couple of years ago and she asked if these emergencies are something we are paying out from the Disaster Fund or are we able to get reimbursement from federal or state agencies.
City Manager Woodhouse stated that most of the breaches do not fall into the emergency FEMA reimbursement. There was the one storm where we have numerous claims that are unresolved, but mostly it is paid out of the Disaster Accounting Fund.
Dep. Director Yip stated there was a question about cost per breach, and for this past winter, we had three breaches that cost roughly total $180,000 for the contractor who worked on it. These are becoming more frequent since 2016. We have had 12 breaches in 2016, but they are averaging around three a year for the past three years and most are within the last few years.
Vice Mayor Wright asked if that did not include any staff regular time or overtime.
Dep. Director Yip agreed, stating it is purely the contractor.
Vice Mayor Wright asked if it is typically overtime we are paying to the staff for any of those mitigation issues.
Dep. Director Yip responded affirmatively.

Councilmember Beckmeyer stated we have done the work because of the conditions of the wall.
We have studied it and we know the north wall is not a true seawall and she is curious to hear more about the possibility of phasing. She thinks we need to do this project and we need to plan for the longer future. Getting this project done gives us the opportunity to plan for the longer future.
Right now, there is no support for us and, with the idea of letting go 30 properties, we cannot buy them out. There has been talk about a project through the State for a buyout but it did not go anywhere. She thinks we need to be reactive when things come around that are useful and beneficial and we need to give our input to the State legislature who are working on these things from our on-the-ground experience. For her, the storm treatment built into this project is an improvement over what we have now to help get that water out. Now, our system is not ready for this and doing this project is how we get that taken care of and how we close the Clarendon Gap.
She knows we have looked at quite a few alternatives and, in terms of cost benefits, this is the best one we came up with. She stated that it is discouraging to her that the funding is abysmal because we need it now as it is an emergency.
Councilmember Bier looked forward, as we move forward with the Climate Action and Resilience Plan and looking at nature-based solutions, talking about the reefs and more. We do not have the funding but that does not mean that we cannot see what we can do. The information brought to us about the reefs was interesting and helpful. She knows it costs money to do that, but she looks forward to those conversations.
Mayor Boles referred to the projections, as she is trying to understand the basis of the project design, and they mentioned two feet of sea level rise which was the intermediate OPC guidance.
Consultant Holloway stated that it depends as those are curves. He stated that the intermediate curve represents the likely range of sea level rise. He stated that with intermediate high, things are worse, and there is one above that, high, which is the worst case.
Mayor Boles asked if he was designing to the intermediate projection which starts to be a problem in about 2075.
Consultant Holloway stated the idea is that, on day one, we will have the most likely range of sea level rise over 50 years covered and, if we end up being on the higher curve, we have steps we can go through and may accept the risk of more frequent floods. We will learn a lot over the next 30 years and we can make a more informed decision in the future to adapt to higher sea level.
Mayor Boles has been hearing at the State level that they are encouraging infrastructure projects to be designed to the intermediate high and not just the intermediate. She knows there is a tradeoff between the views and the height of the wall, but in case we are at the intermediate high in 50 years, the project would not be designed for that at this point.
Consultant Holloway stated it is also the combination of storm events with sea level rise. We can also look at a lesser design event and tolerate less sea level rise but, during that big event, we will have more flooding.
Mayor Boles stated, besides general sea level rise, we are seeing increased storms and increased storm intensity. Just in Pacifica, overtopping happened in the last three years because we are getting more of these storms, which is part of climate change, like a warmer ocean holding more water and bringing these increased storms. She asked if that has been included in these projections and planning or is that not defined in the data and science at the State level.

Consultant Holloway stated it is not reflected in the OPC so this is solely a sea level rise focused document. Our analysis does account for the extreme wave activity that we have observed recently. He knows there have been wave height records that have been broken in recent years and there are some very energetic storms.
Mayor Boles stated, besides the flooding, it is also a hazard. She is trying to get a sense for the community of what we can expect and how much are we fixing and what hazards are still there in this area even after this is built.
Consultant Holloway agreed that we can expect splash over the wall during those big events, even if we raise it up four feet. We are trying to prevent the green water, where a whole wave comes up on the wall and carries all that debris, sand, and gravel, in addition to the flooding.
Mayor Boles stated that we are fixing the north wall s where most of our issues are, but we are seeing more flooding in the south end. If we end up doing a phased approach, she asked if there has been any analysis of whether the south wall can be increased in height.
Consultant Holloway stated that we have not looked at an interim condition where the north wall is replaced and the south wall may be improved. The main issue is that the north wall does not have a foundation.
Mayor Boles stated that the drainage north of the pier is gravity drainage out the wall the way it is now, but bigger drains that can hold more capacity. South of the wall at the Clarendon Gap, we were talking about still using the existing pipe which is sometimes below sea level. She asked what we are planning there in terms of water management now.
Consultant Holloway stated referred to the Storm Drain Master Plan that identified a need for a pump station there eventually.
Dep. Director Yip stated that the Clarendon Pump Station is a project in our Capital Improvement Program that needs funding. There is a temporary pump out there now and it is the lowest spot in the City and, during big storms, staff are pumping water out.
Mayor Boles added it has very limited capacity. She stated that sand levels vary over the course of the year and we see this more on the south wall. She stated that it seems that the levels have been higher the last couple of years. She asked what kind of height difference are included in the designs now.
Consultant Holloway has seen, in some of those extreme events, larger waves and high water levels which will put sand higher up on the beach. That is the beach’s natural way of dealing with those events. The typical seasonal variation is big winter waves move sand off shore and small summer waves push it back on shore, but there are interesting dynamics that happen during those big events. The design would have the bottom of the wall at 20 or below and then the top of it at 28 at the south end so we would have the ability to accommodate the varying sand levels.
Mayor Boles was pleased to see stairs and asked about handicapped access.
Consultant Holloway stated, at the south end, we have a ramp built in to that central picnic beach access area but we do not have a ramp going out on the sand. That could be something we add.
Mayor Boles asked about vehicle access out to the beach and beyond the wall.

Consultant Holloway stated a lot of the armor stone can be replaced from a crane or a piece of equipment from the promenade side. If a vehicle had to get through there, we could look at sizing one of those beach access ways 12 feet instead of 6 feet which is an option.
Mayor Boles thought that might be helpful. She thinks, in the past, we used to manage the sand levels with vehicles. She does not know if that maintenance is required as part of the design.
Dep. Director Yip stated that we can coordinate with GHD on vehicle access out there and get the Coastal Development Permit to move sand around.
Mayor Boles referred to the next phase and asked about a cost estimate for the services and how much funding for their work in the environmental permitting.
Consultant Holloway stated that we have a proposal for all phases, approximately $2.5 million for each phase for the environmental.
Mayor Boles asked if we will be modeling the wall and understanding the sand and nourishment cycles in a little bit more detail as part of the next phase.
Consultant Holloway does not know how much we will get into that with the environmental document but, with permitting, we will. There will be more advanced analysis.
Mayor Boles stated that, on the north end, she wanted to make sure there was still vehicle and fire department access to 1567 Beach Boulevard (a vacant site with a current application).
Consultant Holloway stated that we made sure there is enough room there for vehicle access.
We have not reviewed it with the fire department but they are aware that it is a need there. As we finalize the line, we will have to get those dimensions and make sure they are all up to code.
Mayor Boles asked, in terms of budget, if those numbers are in today’s dollars or projected five years down the road when we would be building it.
Consultant Holloway does not think there is escalation to the construction phase.
Mayor Boles concluded that those numbers will go up. She knows there was talk about the existing south wall perhaps remaining in place and building this over it, but she sees on the current drawings that we are proposing to take it out. She thought it would be helpful to see the existing walls with the new wall in the section dashed in. She also referenced the new Local Coastal Land Use Plan and some shoreline protection of the special shoreline resiliency areas that are for a period of 20 years. The sea wall has a longer life than that, and she asked if we have discussed this with the Coastal Commission since the LCLUP was approved.
Consultant Holloway stated that is something we will work through as part of the CDP and what it will look like in the future.
Mayor Boles referenced the Coastal Commission, in approving the SSRA, seeing those as a way to give us time to do the long-term planning. It is not just that we are building a sea wall to protect those, but we still have to look at moving those as a longer-term plan. She thanked him for his expertise and appreciated him being here tonight.

COUNCIL COMMUNICATIONS
Councilmember Bier stated, as a member of Pacifica’s Council and a neighbor in the community, she acknowledged fear and uncertainty are present and our greatest responsibility is to care for one another and protect our most vulnerable neighbors. Pacifica has always been a place where people can look out for each other, where compassion matters, and where we lead with our values rather than fear. Across the country, people are marching and peacefully protesting the actions of those who hold the highest level of power. These acts of civic engagement are rooted in love, hope, and a desire for justice. In Pacifica, creating spaces for safety, love, and support matters more than anything else. Our words and our actions should help people feel grounded, welcome and protected. She encouraged our community to pause for youth and choose connection over panic and be thoughtful about what we share, how we speak and how we show up for one another.

1 SUBJECT:
Pacifica Police Officers Association (PPOA) MOU Amendment for CalPERS Reporting Compliance
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt the Resolution Approving an Amendment to the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City of Pacifica and the Pacifica Police Officers Association for the period of July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2028, and clarifying Longevity Pay provisions in prior MOUs for the period of July 1, 2007 through June 30, 2012 for California Public Employee’s Retirement System (CalPERS) reporting compliance.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
The City and the Pacifica Police Officers Association (PPOA) reached agreement on a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the period of July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2028, which was adopted by the City Council on July 14, 2025.
Recently, CalPERS conducted an audit and determined that language contained in previous MOUs related to longevity pay compensation did not clearly meet reporting requirements of CalPERS and the Public Employees’ Retirement Law (PERL). Specifically, MOUs covering the period of July 1, 2007 through June 30, 2012 referenced longevity pay as anniversary-based salary increases, which required clarification to ensure compliance with CalPERS reporting standards.
The proposed amendment revises Section 6.1 of the affected MOUs to clearly define longevity pay, including how it is earned, calculated on a compounded basis based on years of service, paid each pay period, and reported to CalPERS as pensionable special compensation (Attachments 1-3).

It is important to note that the amendment does not create new benefits or change in compensation but rather clarifies the language and aligns the contractual language with CalPERS reporting requirements. Adoption of the amendment will promote consistency with applicable law and reduce the risk of future pension reporting discrepancies.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION:
There is no reasonable alternative action. CalPERS has informed the City that the existing MOU language does not meet current reporting requirements and is therefore non-compliant.
Failure to adopt the proposed amendment would leave the City out of compliance, potentially resulting in inaccurate pension reporting and adverse impacts to employees’ future retirement benefit calculations.
In addition, continued non-compliance could subject the City to corrective action by CalPERS, including required retroactive reporting adjustments, administrative penalties, and potential financial liability associated with underreported or misreported compensation.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no direct fiscal Impact associated with adoption of this amendment, as it does not increase compensation or create new benefits, but simply clarifies existing language to ensure compliance with CalPERs reporting requirements.

AMENDMENT TO MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
BETWEEN CITY OF PACIFICA
AND
PACIFICA POLICE OFFICERS ASSOCIATION
This Amendment to the Memorandum of Understanding Between City of Pacifica and Pacifica Police Officers Association, dated July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2028, is entered into by and between the City of Pacifica (“City”) and the Pacifica Police Officers Association (“Association”).
WHEREAS, in order to best ensure compliance with reporting requirements of the California Public Employees’ Pension System (“CalPERS”) and the Public Employees’ Retirement Law (“PERL”), the parties desire to make clarifying edits to prior Memorandum of Understandings (“MOUs”) between the City and the Association as to certain provisions regarding longevity-based compensation;
WHEREAS, the parties intend and agree that such clarifying edits do not materially alter the longevity-based compensation provided to Association members under the prior MOUs; and NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
Section 6.1 of the MOU between City and Association, dated July 1, 2007 to June 30, 2010, is modified, in part, as follows:
Delete the following language:
“Members of the PPOA who have served as Pacifica Police Officers or Public Safety Dispatchers for five or more years will receive a four percent (4%) salary increase on their anniversary date.
Effective January 1, 2006, individuals with five or more years of service will receive a five percent (5%) salary increase on their anniversary date. Individuals having served ten years or more will receive a two percent (2%) salary increase on their anniversary date, and individuals having served 15 years or more will receive a two percent (2%) salary increase on their anniversary date.” To be replaced with the following language:
“Effective January 1, 2006, individuals who have served as Pacifica Police Officers or Public Safety Dispatchers who serve as a sworn member of the Department for longer than five years shall receive additional compensation in the form of longevity pay according to the following schedule:
Following completion of five (5) years of service, an increase of 5% above base salary;
2.b
Packet Pg. 46
Attachment: Pacifica - PPOA MOU Amendment Attachment 3 (6152 : PPOA MOU Amendment for CalPERS reporting compliance) 4903-5179-6608 v3
Following completion of ten (10) years of service, an additional increase of 2% above base salary;
Following completion of fifteen (15) years of service, an additional increase of 2% above base salary.
Longevity pay is compounded such that “base salary” means the employee’s hourly rate of pay pursuant to the publicly available pay schedule plus any lower tier longevity pay increase(s). For example, longevity pay for an employee with 12 years of service at a hourly rate of $30 per hour is calculated as follows:
$30.00 x 0.05 = $1.50/hr
+ $31.50 x 0.02 = $0.63/hr
Longevity pay = $2.13/hr
Longevity pay is earned on a continuous and ongoing basis as hours worked, paid out with each pay period, and reported to CalPERS as special compensation.” Section 6.1 of the MOU between City and Association, dated July 1, 2010 to June 30, 2012, is modified, in part, as follows:
Delete the following language:
“Salary schedules for unit members hired on or before June 30, 2010, including increments applicable after completion of five (5) years, ten (10) years and fifteen (15) years of service, are set forth at ATTACHMENT 1, SECTION A. Salary schedules for unit members hired on or after July 1, 2010 are set forth at ATTACHMENT 1, section B. The aforementioned anniversary increments shall not apply to personnel covered by ATTACHMENT 2. The career incentive provisions set forth in section 6.1.(c) apply to personnel irrespective of date of hire.”
[…]
“Members of the PPOA as of June 30, 2010, who served as Pacifica Police Officers or Public Safety Dispatchers for five or more years before June 30, 2010 will receive a five percent (5%) salary increase on their fifth anniversary date.
Individuals having served ten years or more will receive a two percent (2%) salary increase on their anniversary date, and individuals having served 15 years or more will receive a two percent (2%) salary increase on their anniversary date.” To be replaced with the following language:
“Longevity Pay.

Salary schedules for unit members reflecting the aforementioned longevity pay compensation are set forth at ATTACHMENT 1. Longevity pay shall not apply to personnel covered by ATTACHMENT 2. The career incentive provisions set forth in section 6.1.(c) apply to personnel irrespective of date of hire.” The parties hereto have caused their duly-authorized representatives to execute this Amendment effective February 23, 2026, subject to the approval of the City Council of the City of Pacifica on February 23, 2026.

BACKGROUND:
The City of Pacifica annually conducts an independent audit of financial transactions and issues the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR), prepared by the City’s independent auditing firm and the Finance staff. The attached ACFR report reflects the City's financial position as of June 30, 2025, and is presented as an informational item for the Council’s acceptance.
The ACFR Report has been prepared in conformity with the Governmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards and with the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement 34, which requires dual perspective basic financial statements:
1) Government-wide view of the City’s financial transactions that distinguishes between governmental activities and business activities, which is prepared on a full accrual basis of accounting, and
2) Fund financial view of the results of operations and financial position of each of the City’s major and enterprise (proprietary) funds, reported as follows:
Major Funds
General Fund
Disaster Accounting Fund
Proprietary Funds
Sewer Utility Enterprise Fund
Beach Parking Fund
Internal Service Funds

Pacifica City Council 2
February 23, 2026
The independent auditing firm of Badawi & Associates (Badawi) has completed the City’s Fiscal Year 2024-25 audit in conformity with generally accepted auditing standards that require:
• An independent Certified Public Accounting firm to plan and perform the audit. • Examination of evidence to support the amounts and disclosure in the financial statements.
• Expression of an audit opinion on the fairness of the presentation of the financial position and the results of operations of the basic financial statements of the City, in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) as applicable to local governments.
Section 12410.6 (b) of the Government Code requires the rotation of public accounting firms providing audit services or lead audit partners responsible for performing or reviewing the audit for local agencies every six years to ensure audit independence. Pursuant to this requirement, the City issued an RFP and selected Badawi and Associates as the new audit firm early last year. This marks the second year of their engagement with the City.
FY 2024-25 ACFR received an unqualified opinion from the auditing firm, which means that it is the opinion of the auditors that the ACFR report represents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the City as of June 30, 2025, and that the financial statements were prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The auditors noted no material weaknesses or deficiencies.
In performing an audit of the financial statements, the auditors also considered the City’s internal controls over financial reporting to determine the appropriate audit procedures for expressing opinions on the financial statements. The auditors did not find any internal control deficiencies and issued a clean audit opinion.
The City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) presents an easily readable and organized report of the City’s financial transactions and provides the users of government financial statements with a wide variety of information needed to help them evaluate the City's financial condition. The final step in the formal process of preparing these statements is to present them to the City Council for its acceptance.
The ACFR report is composed of the following parts:
• Introductory Section, including the letter of transmittal • Financial Section
a. Independent Auditors’ Report
b. Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A)
c. Basic Government-wide and fund-level financial statements d. Explanatory notes to financial statements, supplemental schedules e. Supplementary information
• Statistical Section
The transmittal letter provides information regarding the City’s demographics and discussion on the City’s budget process, as well as factors affecting the City’s financial conditions, including State budget and local economy, long-term financial planning, risk management, and employee benefit cost.
The Financial Section includes the Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) that summarizes the financial results for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, and provides a brief and easily readable analysis of the City’s fiscal activities, overview of the financial highlights, and a discussion of significant financial changes from the prior year. 3 Packet Pg. 51
Pacifica City Council 3
February 23, 2026
The financial statements and notes to the financial statements are presented next. Following the financial statements is the statistical section of the report, which includes tables that contain ten years of data that illustrate financial trends and a section with demographic and other data that is useful in analyzing the financial condition and performance of the City.
The comprehensive format of the annual financial report is designed to provide detailed information for all city government activities in one document. Rather than reviewing cover to cover, it is suggested that readers initially concentrate on the summary schedules in the MD&A before moving to the full statements, budget comparison statements, and the combined statements presented in the report's financial section.
DISCUSSION
The statement of Net position presents complete information on the City’s assets and deferred outflows of resources and liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, with the difference reported as net position. Net position may serve as a valuable indicator of the city’s financial position over time. The overall Citywide net assets exceeded its liabilities on June 30, 2025, by $114.2 million, which is an $8.9 million increase from the prior year’s restated net position of $105 million, as shown in Table 1 Comparative Statement of Net Position.
Key Changes in Net Positions are as follows:
• Increase in Net Investment in Capital Assets from $124.3 to $144.8 million. The City’s Capital Assets are calculated as the current net book value of the assets, less the outstanding balance of any debt issued to finance these assets. An increase over the prior year of $8.8 million in governmental activities and $11.7 million in business-type activities is a result of the capitalization of projects such as the Esplanade/Palmetto Bike Pathway project and Sharp Park construction project for governmental activities and mainly two Wastewater projects, Lower Linda Mar wastewater collection systems and Ultraviolet Disinfection System.
• Restricted net position decreased $1.9 million from the prior year to $20.3 million in governmental funds. The restricted portion of the Net position describes obligations restricted by the terms and conditions of agreements with outside parties, governmental regulations, laws, or other restrictions that the City cannot unilaterally alter. This may 3 Packet Pg. 52
Pacifica City Council 4
February 23, 2026
include capital projects, revolving loan programs, and other various grant programs. • Unrestricted net position describes the portion of a net position that is not restricted to use. The negative net position exists when liabilities exceed assets. As further described in the MD&A, the City’s negative net position figure is a direct result of the City’s recognition of net pension and OPEB liability as required by GASB 68 and 75, respectively. It is important to note that the unfunded pension and OPEB obligations do not represent a liability due and payable immediately. The City’s unrestricted net position had an unfavorable change from negative $41.1 million in the prior year to negative $50.9 million in the current year. The decline in unrestricted was primarily driven by business-type activities, as unrestricted balances were applied toward capital investments, which corroborates why business-type net investments in capital assets increased. Finance staff will continue monitoring year-to-year changes in unrestricted net position, which will remain negative in future years primarily due to the unfunded pension and OPEB liabilities. The pension and OPEB prefunding policy will also be reviewed during the annual budget process.
Additional information on the changes in net position and net investment in capital assets can be found in Note 10. Net Position and Fund Balances in the ACFR.
The Statement of Activities, Table 2, provides information about the City’s revenue and expenses, with an emphasis on measuring net revenues or expenses in each program, explaining in detail the change in Net Position for the year. 3 Packet Pg. 53
Pacifica City Council 5
February 23, 2026
Key points regarding the Statement of Activities are as follows:
• Total Revenues - The citywide total revenues were $86.8 million as of June 30, 2025, an increase of $9.0 million from the previous fiscal year, with Governmental and Business-Type activities increasing by $7.8 million and $1.2 million, respectively. o Program revenue for both Governmental and Business-type activities increased by $5.2 million from $33.4 million to $38.6 million, with an increase of $2.3 million in capital grants in Governmental activities and an increase of $1.6 million in charges for services.
o Revenues from all taxes increased by $1.2 million from $36.4 million to $37.6 million, which includes increases of $0.4 million in property taxes and $0.8 million in all other taxes.
o Motor Vehicle in-Lieu (VLF) revenue increased by $1.0 million in FY 2025 to $4.8 million. The timing of this source of funding is dependent on the State’s budgeting and the remittance process.
• Total Expenses - The citywide total expenses were $77.9 million, an increase of $3.4 million or 5% over the prior fiscal year of $74.4 million. The Governmental activities expense increased by $1.9 million. The Business-Type activities expenses increased by $1.5 million.
o Sewer operation included a $1.1 million increase in depreciation expense and $0.4 million increase in transfer out to motor pool for equipment purchase. o Other categories stayed fairly consistent with the prior year. • Transfers - Transfers in are shown as a positive amount and Transfers (out) are shown in parenthesis. The purpose of most transfers is to move resources from one fund to another. These transfers are usually approved at budget adoption or during the mid-year review. A summary of all transfers is located in the ACFR Note 9. Interfund Transactions.
A governmental transfer in of $1.7 million to the Internal Service Funds was received by a business-type transfer (out) from the Sewer Utility fund to pay for a portion of the General Liability insurance costs and motor pool replacements.
The Governmental Funds Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances presented in the ACFR report is a useful snapshot of the City’s fiscal indicator for the year. Governmental funds include all funds except for proprietary (Sewer) and internal service funds. The Net Change in Fund Balances, reflecting all revenues, expenditures, and transfers, was an increase of $4.6 million or 11.4% from the prior year balance of $40.6 million to $45.2 million in FY 2024-25. The net change consists of a $3.9 million increase in the General Fund fund balance, an increase of $2.9 million in Disaster Accounting Fund, and a $2.3 million decrease in combined fund balances of the City’s remaining governmental funds. The Disaster Accounting Fund was reclassified as a major fund this year as a result of the major vs. nonmajor fund test. 3 Packet Pg. 54
Pacifica City Council 6
February 23, 2026
As part of the annual audit process, certain reclassifications were made to ensure that transactions and balances were reported in the appropriate funds and financial statement line items in accordance with GAAP and GASB requirements. These reclassifications did not change the City’s overall financial condition, cash balances, or net position, but improved the accuracy and clarity of financial statement presentation.
For FY 2024-25, restatements primarily related to capital asset accounting, internal service fund activity, and the implementation of updated accounting guidance, namely GASB Statement No. 101. These adjustments are technical in nature in governmental audits, they did not impact cash balances or General Fund reserves, and they enhance transparency and comparability of the City’s financial statements.
The General Fund is the City’s primary operating fund. It receives unrestricted revenues and provides general administrative services, law enforcement, and animal control services, and land development-related activities such as planning, building, and engineering.
3 Packet Pg. 55
Pacifica City Council 7
February 23, 2026
The General Fund balance of $22.6 million as of June 30, 2025, showed an increase of $3.9 million from the prior fiscal year’s restated balance of $18.7 million. The City Council assigned $5.6 million in reserves for specific purposes, as described in Note 10 of the Notes to the Basic Financial Statements. A total of $16.4 million of the General Fund balance remains unassigned, showing a positive increase of $3.8 million from the prior year of $12.6 million.
General Fund highlights are as follows:
• General Fund revenues totaled $50.6 million in the current fiscal year compared to $46.5 million in the prior fiscal year. This $4.1 million, or 8.8%, increase is a result of the following main factors:
o an increase of $1.3 million in property tax
o an increase of $1.5 million in intergovernmental receipts o an increase of $1.0 million in charges for services
o a modest increase of $0.1 million in recreational program revenues • General Fund expenditures totaled $45.5 million, an increase of $4.3 million or 10.4%, compared to $41.2 million in the prior year:
o General Government expenditures increased by $1.1 million from $7.0 million in FY 2024, driven mainly by higher personnel costs ($0.4 million), and increased legal, litigation-related activities ($0.6 million).
o Public Safety expenditures increased as well, with Police Department costs rising by $0.7 million due to higher personnel costs associated with the implementation of new 3 Packet Pg. 56
Pacifica City Council 8
February 23, 2026
memorandum of understanding (MOU) provisions and increased overtime resulting from staffing challenges. Fire Department expenditures increased by $1.0 million, due to higher emergency response and increased overtime costs of $0.7 million, and $0.3 million increase in retirement costs.
o The Community Development Department expenditures increased by $0.8 million primarily due to higher contractual services in the Planning Division. o Public Works expenditures increased by $0.2 million, mainly due to an increase in Engineering Services.
o Parks, Beaches, and Recreation expenditures rose by $0.5 million, primarily due to filling vacancies and other program increases.
Other areas of importance include but are not limited to, long-term debt, other post-employment benefits (OPEB), and pension plans.
• Long term debt - The City generally incurs debt to finance projects or purchase assets, which will have useful lives equal to or greater than the related debt. The City’s debt issues and transactions related to both governmental and business-type activities are summarized in ACFR Note 5. Long Term Debt. No new debt was issued in FY 2025. • OPEB - The City’s total OPEB liability was measured as of June 30, 2024, and was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2024, to determine the total net OPEB liability of $3.6 million as of June 30, 2025, which is a $1.1 million decrease from the prior year. Further details are provided in the ACFR Note 6. Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB).
• Pension - The City’s current actuarially determined long-term net pension liability of $69.6 million showed a 5.1% decrease from the prior fiscal year’s $73.4 million, based on the most recent actuarial valuation and CalPERS Actuarial assumptions, and amortized over a combination of 30 and 20-year schedules. Further details are provided in Note 7. Pensions Plans.
Additional information on other operating and capital funds can be found in the attached financial report, MD&A section, and notes to the financial statements.
In addition to ACFR, the auditors have prepared and issued an Audit Report on Measure W Funds, Attachment 2, Measure A funds, Attachment 3, and Transportation Development Act Program, Attachment 4, as summarized below.
Audit Report on Measure W Funds
The agreement between the City and San Mateo County Transportation Authority for the distribution of San Mateo County Measure W funds for local transportation purposes in accordance with the San Mateo County Congestion Relief Plan requires the City to submit a compliance audit report on the funds received. The audit report found that the City has complied, in all material respects, with the requirements for the year ended June 30, 2025.
Additional information is available in Attachment 2.
Audit Report on Measure A Funds
The annual audit report on Measure A funds found that the City has complied, in all material respects, with the requirements for the year ended June 30, 2025. Additional information is available in Attachment 3. These reports include additional financial statements and supplemental data that together with ACFR summarize the results of the operations of all funds and give a comprehensive overview of the City’s financial position for the fiscal year that ended on June 30, 2025.
Audit Report on Transportation Development Act (TDA) Funds The annual audit of the City’s Transportation Development Act (TDA) Article 3 Program, which 3 Packet Pg. 57
Pacifica City Council 9
February 23, 2026
provides funding through the Metropolitan Transportation Commission for the Palmetto & Esplanade Bike and Pedestrian Improvements project, included both a financial statement audit and a compliance review in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and Section 6666 of the California Administrative Code. The auditors issued an unmodified opinion, finding that the TDA Program financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Program for the year ended June 30, 2025, and that the City complied, in all material respects, with the applicable compliance requirements governing TDA funds. No instances of noncompliance or material weaknesses in internal control were identified.
Additional information is available in Attachment 4.
In an effort to further enhance transparency and accessibility, the City will be issuing its first-ever Popular Annual Financial Report (PAFR). The PAFR is a streamlined, reader-friendly summary of the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR), designed to present key financial information in clear language with visual charts and graphics for residents and stakeholders.
While the ACFR provides detailed financial statements in accordance with governmental accounting standards, the PAFR focuses on high-level results, trends, and fiscal highlights to make the City’s financial story more understandable to the broader community. Staff anticipates publishing the FY 2024-25 PAFR by the end of February.
We would like to take the opportunity to acknowledge the hard work of the Finance Department staff in bringing this report forward. We also appreciate the competence and diligence displayed by the auditors’ team in assisting the City staff with the preparation and timely completion of the ACFR document. Finally, we would like to thank the entire City Council for their unfailing support of maintaining the highest standards in managing the City’s finances, emphasizing transparency, ethics, and fiscal responsibility.
The City has been a proud recipient of the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting from the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) for four consecutive years, and we are confident that the attached document will continue to meet these high standards. We included GFOA recommendations to further improve the quality of this document and plan to submit this ACFR report for the award’s consideration again this year. Should the City receive the Government Finance Officers Association Award for Outstanding Achievement in Popular Annual Financial Reporting again, Pacifica would qualify for the GFOA “Triple Crown” distinction, recognizing excellence in budgeting, financial reporting, and popular reporting.
RELATION TO CITY COUNCIL GOALS AND WORK PLAN:
The City's annual audit is a critical check on the City’s financial practices, impacting all City Council Goals.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with the Council’s acceptance of the ACFR report. The attached reports present the City's financial results for the last Fiscal Year 2024-25, and they will be factored-in the development of the FY 2026-27 budget.
ALTERNATIVES:
There is no reasonable alternative to the staff recommendation to accept the report, as not accepting the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report will not change the City’s audited financial position as of June 30, 2025.

Honorable Mayor, Members of the City Council, and Citizens of the City of Pacifica, California:
We are pleased to submit the City of Pacifica's Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. The purpose of this report is to provide the City Council, City Staff, residents of Pacifica, and other interested parties with accurate, complete, and fair data and helpful information concerning the City's operations and financial position.
The report is prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) as set by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) and audited in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards by an independent firm of certified public accountants. This report conforms to GASB Statement 34 financial reporting standards, including dual-perspective financials showing both an entity-wide view of all governmental and business-type activities and a detailed focus on the financial position and operating results of the City's major funds.
We believe the report contains all disclosures necessary for the reader to understand the City's financial affairs. State law requires every general-purpose government to publish a complete set of audited financial statements. Professional standards encourage this report to be published within sufficient time to allow the government to remedy any deficiencies while minimizing negative impacts. This report is issued to fulfill that requirement for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025.
Management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of the information contained in the ACFR based upon a comprehensive framework of internal control that it has established for this purpose.
Stewardship and Internal Control
This report consists of management's representations concerning the finances of the City of Pacifica and promotes accountability. Consequently, responsibility for both the accuracy of the data and the fairness of this presentation, including all disclosures, rests with City management.
To provide a reasonable basis for making these representations, management has established a comprehensive framework of internal control designed to protect the government's assets from loss, theft, or misuse and to compile sufficient reliable information for the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP to:
Safeguard City assets from loss or unauthorized use or disposal. Provide reliable financial records for preparing internal and external financial reports and for maintaining accountability over City assets.

Ensure compliance with applicable Federal and State laws and regulations related to programs for which the City receives assistance.
As the cost of internal control should not exceed anticipated benefits, the objective is to provide reasonable rather than an absolute assurance that the financial statements are free of any material misstatements.
Management believes that the City's internal controls reasonably safeguard assets, assure that financial transactions are properly recorded and reported, and ensure compliance with applicable Federal and State laws and regulations. To the best of our knowledge and belief, the enclosed data is accurate in all material respects and is reported in a manner designed to represent fairly the financial position and results of operation of the City's various funds. All disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain an understanding of the City's financial activities have been included.
State statutes require an annual audit by independent certified public accountants. The purpose of the audit is to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements are presented fairly, in all material respects, and/or give a true and fair view in accordance with the financial reporting framework. The City's independent audit involves examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. The City's independent auditor, Badawi & Associates, a firm of licensed certified public accountants, has issued an unmodified ("clean") opinion on the City of Pacifica's financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. The independent auditor's report is located at the front of the financial section of this report.
In addition to meeting the requirements set forth by State law, the audit is also designed to meet the requirements of the Single Audit Act of 1984 and 2 CFR part 200, subpart F. The standards governing Single Audit engagements require the auditor to report on the City's internal controls and compliance with certain legal requirements with special emphasis on the administration of federal awards. These reports are available in the City's separately issued Single Audit Report.
The ACFR report is presented in three sections:
The Introductory Section includes this letter of transmittal, the City's organizational chart, and certificates of achievement.
The Financial Section includes the report of the independent auditors; Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A); the basic financial statements, including governmentwide financial statements; and the accompanying notes. Required supplementary information other than the MD&A is also included in the financial section. The Statistical Section includes selected financial and demographic information presented on a multi-year basis.
The notes to the financial statements are provided in the financial section and are considered essential for fair presentation and adequate disclosure. The notes include the summary of significant accounting policies for the City and other necessary disclosure of important matters relating to the City's financial position. The notes are an integral part of the financial statements and should be read in conjunction with them.
GAAP and the Governmental Accounting Standards Board require that management provide a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements in the form of Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). This letter of transmittal is designed to complement the MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it. The City's MD&A can be found immediately following the report of the independent auditors. vi

City of Pacifica Profile
The City of Pacifica is a full-service city located on the Pacific Coast in San Mateo County, south of San Francisco. Situated within the Bay Area Peninsula, it is framed by the ridges of the Coast Range on the east, the Montara Mountains on the south, and the Pacific Ocean on the west. The City of Pacifica encompasses roughly 12.6 square miles (of which approximately one-half is publicly owned and protected open space) and serves a population of approximately 37,217. A combination of residential, office, and commercial retail businesses, and natural open space, comprises the makeup of the City. The City of Pacifica, while located in the midst of a major metropolitan region, is a unique family-oriented coastal community that prides itself on fostering a "small town" feel. The City's geographic setting, its proximity to San Francisco and the San Francisco International Airport, along with its natural open space and coastal beauty, make it a desirable place to live and work.
The City of Pacifica is a General Law City incorporated in 1957 and operates under the CouncilManager form of government. Legislative authority is vested in a five-member City Council elected by district for four-year overlapping terms. The Mayor is selected each year by a majority vote of the Council members. The City Council is responsible for, among other things, passing ordinances, adopting the budget, appointing advisory commissions/committees, and hiring both the City Manager and City Attorney, who are retained on a contract basis. The City Manager, in turn, appoints the directors of the various City departments.
The City provides a range of services to its residents, including but not limited to public safety (police and fire), streets, wastewater and stormwater infrastructure, parks, beaches, and recreation which extends to social services such as childcare and senior services, code enforcement, planning and zoning, and overall leadership through general administrative services. The City coordinates garbage and recycling services through a franchise agreement, while water, gas, and electric utilities, and other social services are provided through other agencies not under City operations.
The City performed certain infrastructure construction and economic development activities through a separate Redevelopment Agency until its dissolution on February 1, 2012. The City accepted the role of Successor Agency to the Redevelopment Agency per Council action on January 23, 2012.
Budget Process
The City maintains budgetary controls, the objective of which is to ensure compliance with legal provisions embodied in the annual appropriated budget approved by the City's governing body.
Activities of the general fund, special revenue funds, enterprise funds, debt service funds, and internal service funds are included in the annual appropriated budget. The Capital Improvement Projects budget reflects existing projects that do not lapse at year-end but are carried forward until completion of the project.
The City's budget process goals are to identify necessary and/or desirable service-level options, which are all combined to reach a balanced and sustainable budget. Each City department is provided with a base budget with certain inflationary increases and is given an opportunity to request additional funding, or make recommendations for expenditure containment, if needed. The City Manager, Assistant City Manager, Director of Finance and Administrative Services, Deputy Finance Director, and Financial Analyst meet with each department individually to discuss and finalize the proposed budget recommendations. The City Manager then presents the proposed budget to the Council for review prior to the end of May every year. The Council holds a public hearing on the proposed budget and is required to adopt a final budget by no later than the end of June, the close of the City's fiscal year.
The level of budgetary control (that is, the level at which expenditures cannot legally exceed the appropriated amount) is maintained at the fund level by tracking expenditures and budget vii

authority. Unexpended budget appropriations lapse at the end of the fiscal year with the exception of capital improvement projects. The City Manager is responsible for the preparation of the budget, and along with the Assistant City Manager and Finance and Administrative Services Director, is responsible for monitoring the budget for legal compliance.
The annual budget serves as the foundation for the City of Pacifica's financial planning and control.
The budget is prepared by fund, and by department (e.g., Police, Fire, Planning, Parks, Beaches and Recreation, Public Works, Administration). The City Manager may transfer resources within a department as he sees fit. Transfers of appropriations between funds need special approval from the Council. City Council may amend the budget by resolution during the fiscal year. The Fiscal Year 2024-25 Mid-Year Budget Adjustments were adopted by Council via Resolution No. 26-2025 on March 24, 2025. Budgets are adopted on accrual basis consistent with GAAP. Budget-to-actual comparisons are presented in the supplementary section of the accompanying financial statements for each governmental fund for which an appropriated annual budget has been adopted.
Economic Factors and Financial Outlook
The section below provides outlooks at the national, state and local levels; historically, economic trends at the local level generally follow national and state trends.
National Level Economic Outlook
At the national level, the economy continues to expand at a moderate rate, with Gross Domestic Product (GDP) increasing at an annual rate of 4.3 percent for the third quarter of 2025. As the Federal Open Market Committee continues to focus on returning the inflation rate to 2 percent, they voted at the December 2025 meeting to lower the target range for the federal funds rate by a ¼ percentage point to 3 ½ percent. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics as of the latest data, the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U), increased at an annual rate of
2.7 percent as of the twelve months ended on November 2025.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the national unemployment rate increased to 4.6 percent in November 2025, when compared to the 4.2 percent unemployment rate from November 2024. The number of jobs added to nonfarm payroll rose by 64,000 in November, with employment gains in healthcare and construction, while federal government employment declined by about 6,000, following a loss of 162,000 in October.
The U.S. Census Bureau and U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development jointly reported that housing starts in August 2025 decreased 8.5 percent from July 2025 and were 6.0 percent below the August 2024 level. Permits for new construction, a leading indicator of future demand, have increased 3.7 percent from July to August 2025 but were still 11.1 percent below the August 2024 level. Monthly housing data releases were delayed following the 2025 federal government shutdowns, and some scheduled reports were not published on their usual timetable.
Active US housing listings increased 12.1 percent nationally over the last year, according to the December 2025 housing report from Realtor.com, with the West and South regions showing the fastest growth. Median asking home prices were modestly lower on a year-over-year basis, continuing a trend of flat to slightly declining prices as supply expanded. However, price per square foot increased from 1% to 4% varying by region. Homes also tended to remain on the market longer than a year earlier. The typical home spent 73 days on the market in December, 4 days longer than the same time last year indicating a slower sales pace.
State Budget and Economic Outlook
Due to impacts of the federal government shutdown, available data for October and November 2025 are tentatively scheduled to be released January 2026. However, using the December 2025 report analyzing September’s 2025 data, according to the California Employment Development Department (EDD), California’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate moved to 5.6% after two consecutive months at 5.5%. In related data that figures into the state’s unemployment rate, there viii
3.a
Packet Pg. 71
Attachment: Attachment A: City of Pacifica's Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2025 (6148 :
were 359,565 people certifying for unemployment insurance benefits during the September sample week, which is up 145 claims from prior year.
A report from the California Association of Realtors showed that in November 2025 the statewide median home price was $852,680, essentially staying flat compared to the previous year. Median time on the market is lower than the national average at 32 days, but that is up 23.1 percent year over year.
At this same time last year, California's budget outlook had projected a $363 million surplus for the 2025-26 budget cycle. However, by May the projections shifted to a $12 billion deficit, attributed to the wildfire-related costs, Med-Cal caseload and cost increases, economic volatility, associated with tariff uncertainty, and reductions in Federal funding for infrastructure and homelessness response. As part of the State’s budget-balancing efforts, the vehicle license fee (VLF) in-lieu funds were withheld, which had a direct impact on the City of Pacifica; additional detail is provided in the MD&A section of this report. Looking ahead, the Legislative Analyst’s Office (LAO) is currently projecting an $18 billion deficit for the next budget cycle, the Governor’s budget preview is expected in early spring, followed by a May revision, with final review and adoption by Legislature by June 15th.
Local Economy
According to the California Employment Development Department, as of September 2025, there were an estimated 421,900 jobs in San Mateo County, a decrease of 16,400 jobs from September 2024. The unemployment rate in San Mateo County has increased year over year from 3.5% to 4%. This is .6 – 1.6% lower comparatively with an unadjusted unemployment rate of 5.6% for California and 4.6% for the nation during the same period as stated in the previous sections. As of the same period, there were 1,036,800 jobs reported in Santa Clara County, an area to which our economic fortunes are closely linked, with similar unemployment rate of 4.5%.
Similar to broader statewide economic trends, the local economy in San Mateo County continues to navigate a mixed environment characterized by modest job market shifts and resilient revenue performance in key taxable activities. The County’s largest revenue source, property tax, remains fundamentally strong due to rising assessed values, as evidenced by a record-high local property assessment roll that grew by nearly 4.8% for the 2025-26 fiscal year, reflecting sustained real estate valuation.
San Mateo County remains one of the most expensive housing markets in California, with median home prices well above $1 million. According to data from the California Association of Realtors, the median sale price of a single-family home in San Mateo County increased by 10 percent from $1.73 million in December 2024 to $1.9 million in December 2025. This pattern suggests a shift in the composition of homes sold, with relatively larger or higher-value properties accounting for a greater share of transactions, while more moderately priced homes remained constrained in supply. In Pacifica, the median price of a single-family home has stayed stable over the last year at $1.3 million in December 2025, however price per square foot has decreased from $862 to $816.
Fund Balance and Long-Term Financial Planning
The City of Pacifica has continued to be fiscally conservative in financial investments, as well as with the development of a Long Term Financial Forecast (LTFF). The long-term financial plan of the City includes cost containment strategies and a comprehensive cost recovery program, both designed to ensure the long-term financial health of the City. The forecast considers current revenue and expenditure trends at the base budget and projected forward and does not assume ongoing contributions to the capital improvement program, nor does it take into account any future potential revenue measures. The most recent Long Term Financial Forecast, presented to the City Council on November 10, 2025 during the Revenue Generation Study Session, identified a projected structural imbalance in the General Fund beginning in FY 2026-27. The forecast ix
3.a
Packet Pg. 72
Attachment: Attachment A: City of Pacifica's Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2025 (6148 :
estimated a deficit of approximately $3.1 million (5.74% of revenues) in FY 2026-27, with deficits persisting throughout the forecast period. The structural gap was projected to peak at approximately $6.6 million (12.22% of revenues) in FY 2027-28 and remain elevated, with an estimated $5.4 million deficit (9.06% of revenues) in FY 2031-32, reflecting the expiration of Measure Y revenues at the end of its term. Additionally, the LTFF displayed that if the deficit were to remain unaddressed by FY 2026-27, the unassigned fund balance would fall below the GFOArecommended guidelines of two months of operating expenditures, with full depletion of reserves projected by FY 2028-29 without corresponding revenue increases or expenditure reductions.
At the November 10 study session, the Council directed City Manager to assess the feasibility of a parcel tax with a public safety focus, as well as assess the feasibility of an infrastructure measure for roads, for future Council consideration of whether to place a revenue measure on the November 2026 ballot.
The City remains vigilant in its efforts to continue to provide essential City services while maintaining sufficient levels of fiscal control and accountability. The next update to the LTFF is expected after the mid-year budget review in March.
The City's total Fund Balance in the General Fund is $22.6 million as of June 30, 2025. The Fund Balance is comprised of four components; a Non-spendable portion of $23 thousand; an Assigned portion of $5.6 million which includes the Budget Shortfall Reserve amount of $4.7 million and other requirements per Council decision for specific purposes; a Restricted portion of $0.5 million for Pension Trust; leaving an Unassigned portion of $16.4 million. The Unassigned portion of the General Fund totals 36.13% of total general fund expenditures and is in addition to the minimum policy guideline of 10 percent of total general fund operating expenditures set by the Council for budgetary shortfall policy and planning purposes.
While the City’s General Fund balance remains strong as of June 30, 2025, the projected structural deficit identified in the Long-Term Financial Forecast represents a growing concern that will require ongoing monitoring and policy action.
Acknowledgments
Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (“GFOA”) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City for its Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (“Annual Report”) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. This was the fourth year that the City has achieved this prestigious award in recent history. In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, the City must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized Annual Report. The report satisfied both GAAP and applicable legal requirements. A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We believe that the current Annual Report continues to meet the Certificate of Achievement Program’s requirements, and we are submitting it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate.
Our goal is to publish financial information that is helpful to policy leaders and the public.
Preparation of the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report was made possible by the dedicated service of the entire staff of the City of Pacifica Finance Division. We sincerely appreciate all who contributed to the fiscal year-end audit and dedicated their continuing efforts to improving the quality of this report. We would like to take an opportunity to acknowledge the extraordinary efforts and hard work of Marisol Gómez, Director of Finance and Administrative Services, Lucy Xie, Deputy Finance Director, Spencer Tseng, Senior Accountant, and Stephanie Coy, Financial Analyst, for their dedicated work coordinating and executing the year-end closure and preparation for the audit, as well as commitment to continue improving the City's financial management and reporting.
We also commend the audit team from Badawi and Associates for their professional work, dedication, competence, and diligence in ongoing assistance during the audit process and x

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
of the City of Pacifica
Pacifica, California
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Pacifica (City), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2025, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City, as of June 30, 2025, 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 audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months beyond the financial statement date, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter.

To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
of the City of Pacifica
Pacifica, 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 opinions. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may 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, we:
Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control–related matters that we identified during the audit.
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion and analysis, budgetary comparison schedules for the General Fund and Disaster Accounting Special Revenue Fund, and the required pension and OPEB schedules on pages 7-24 and 98-116 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 2 3.a

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.
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 nonmajor fund statements, and the budgetary comparison schedules for the nonmajor governmental funds are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.
The combining and individual nonmajor fund statements, and the budgetary comparison schedules for the nonmajor governmental funds are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic 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 combining and individual nonmajor fund statements, and the budgetary comparison schedules for the Disaster Accounting Fund and nonmajor governmental funds are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information included in the annual comprehensive financial report. The other information comprises the introductory and statistical sections included in the annual comprehensive financial report but does not include the basic financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Our opinions on the basic financial statements do not cover the other information, and we do not express an opinion or any form of assurance thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and consider whether a material inconsistency exists between the other information and the basic financial statements, or the other information otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work performed, we conclude that an uncorrected material misstatement of the other information exists, we are required to describe it in our report.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis, Continued
For the year ended June 30, 2025
The City of Pacifica (City) management staff offers readers of the City’s financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the City’s financial activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. It has been designed in accordance with standards established by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. We encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with the accompanying letter of transmittal and financial statements.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
This Financial Highlights section is a high level summary of key year-to-year changes, with further details provided in the Statement of Net Position section which discusses the City’s assets and deferred outflows of resources and liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, the Statement of Activities section which breaks down information by sources of revenues and uses of resources for governmental and proprietary funds, as well as the Financial Analysis of the City’s Major Funds section which explains the activity at the major fund level in more detail.
CITY-WIDE:
Total City assets increased by $11.9 million to $259,027,913 of which $166,913,010 represented governmental assets and $92,114,903 represented business-type assets, driven primarily by capital and infrastructure investments in the Sewer Utility Fund. The City’s capital assets are summarized in Table 6.
City deferred outflows related to pension, other post-employment benefits (“OPEB”), and deferred losses on debt refunding decreased by $8,471,300 to $20,412,563 of which $19,243,353 represented governmental deferred outflows pertaining to pension and other post-employment benefits and $1,169,210 represented business-type deferred outflows related to pension and other post-employment benefits.
Total City liabilities decreased by $4,731,755, largely due to the payment of long-term obligations, to $159,709,881, of which $101,719,893 was governmental liabilities and $57,989,988 was business-type liabilities.
Total City deferred inflows of resources decreased by $556,214 to $5,483,564, of which $4,713,156 was governmental-type deferred inflows related to pension and other postemployment benefits, and $770,408 was business-type deferred inflows pertaining to pension and other post-employment benefits.
The City’s assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded the liabilities and deferred inflows by $114,247,031 (“net position”), which increased by $8,967,950 compared with the restated prior year’s balance of $105,279,081. This comes from a detailed combination of factors: 1) an increase of $20,528,317 in net investment in capital assets that is not available for future appropriations as a result of capitalization of the Esplanade/Palmetto Bike Pathway Project, Sharp Park construction project, Linda Mar Pump Station Rebuild and Ultraviolet Disinfection Project. The City also capitalized significant pavement resurfacing projects to continue addressing longstanding infrastructure needs, as the City’s pavement condition remains among the lowest statewide, 2) a decrease of $1,952,313 in restricted net position, for governmental activities decreases in restricted net position reflect progress on capital projects, 3) The unrestricted net position further declined by $9,814,330 to $(50,895,085) at the end of FY 2025, most of this decline was in the business-type activities as unrestricted balances shifted to capital investments, and 4) the net prior period adjustment of $206,276 due to a correction of CIP and implementation of GASB 101 (Note 13). The large negative unrestricted net position stems from implementing 7 3.a

Citywide revenues were $86,837,588, an increase of $9,026,157 over prior year’s total of $77,811,431. For FY 2025 $64,763,907 was generated by governmental activities, and $22,073,681 was generated by business-type activities, excluding interfund transfers. (Table 2) Citywide expenses were $77,869,638, an increase of $3,416,190 over prior year’s total of $74,453,448. For FY 2025 $57,416,589 was incurred by governmental activities, and $20,453,049 was incurred by business-type activities, excluding interfund transfers. (Table 2) FUND LEVEL:
The City’s governmental funds reported combined fund balances of $45,184,471, an increase of $4,633,190 compared to restated prior year balance of $40,551,281, primarily as a result of the improvement in the General Fund balance by $3,895,197 from slightly higher-than anticipated revenues and reduced expenditures, including salary savings due to vacancies. (Table 4) The General Fund's assets exceeded its liabilities, resulting in an ending fund balance of $22,635,647. Of the ending fund balance, $23,188 is non-spendable, which consists solely of prepaid items, the restricted fund balance of $582,633 is from the Pension Trust, $5,583,698 is assigned, which includes a fund balance reserve requirement of $4,684,107 and other fund balance requirements per Council for specific purposes. The remaining unassigned portion of the fund balance of $16,446,128 is available and may be used to meet the government’s ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.
The total assets of the Business-type activities – Enterprise Funds (Sewer and Beach Parking Funds) of the City exceeded its total liabilities resulting in a net position of $34,523,717, a decrease of $132,168 from the restated prior fiscal year net position of $34,655,885. (Note 13A) The net position of internal service funds was $4,416,830, an increase of $411,350 from the restated prior year’s balance of $4,005,480, primarily attributable to capitalization of the several big vehicle acquisition costs.

City of Pacifica
Management’s Discussion and Analysis, Continued
For the year ended June 30, 2025
The Government-Wide Financial Statements – These statements include the Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities. These statements provide a broad overview of the City’s finances, presented in a manner similar to private-sector companies.
The Statement of Net Position presents complete information on the City’s assets and deferred outflows of resources and liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, with the difference reported as net position. Changes in the net position that occur over time may serve as an indicator of the City’s financial position, whether it is improving or deteriorating.
The Statement of Activities presents information showing how the City’s net position changed during the current fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported using the “accrual basis of accounting.” Changes are reported when the underlying event giving rise to the changes occurs, regardless of the timing of the related cash flow. Thus, revenue and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will result in cash flows in future fiscal periods, such as revenues related to uncollected taxes or earned but unused vacation leave.
The Government-wide Financial Statements distinguish functions of the City that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenue (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The City's governmental activities consist of general government, public safety, public works, parks, beaches and recreation, and community development. The businesstype activities of the City include sewer utility and beach parking. The Government–wide Financial Statements are prepared on an accrual basis, which means they measure the flow of all economic resources of the City as a whole.
The Fund Financial Statements – A fund is a grouping 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 and accounting requirements. The City’s funds can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds.
Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities in the Government-wide Financial Statements. Unlike Government-wide Financial Statements, Governmental Fund Financial Statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources and balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating the City’s near-term financing requirements.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the Government-wide Financial Statements, comparing the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the Government-wide Financial Statements is useful. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the City’s near-term financing decisions. Both the Governmental Funds Balance Sheet and the Governmental Funds Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental activities and governmental funds.
The City has two major governmental funds: General and Disaster Accounting. Information is presented separately in the Governmental Funds Balance Sheet and the Governmental Funds Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances for these funds. Financial information for the remaining governmental funds is combined into a single, aggregated presentation 9 3.a

called Other Governmental Funds. Individual fund data for these non-major governmental funds is provided by combining statements located elsewhere in the report.
Proprietary funds are used to account for services and activities for which a fee is charged to customers in exchange for city-provided goods or services. Proprietary funds use the “economic resources” measurement focus, concentrating on how transactions and events have affected the fund’s total economic resources. The City maintains two different types of proprietary funds.
Enterprise Funds: These funds are used to report business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. The City has two enterprise funds: Sewer and Beach Parking.
Internal Service Funds: These funds are used to allocate costs internally among the City’s functions.
The City uses internal service funds to account for the maintenance and replacement of its fleet and rolling stock, general liability, worker’s compensation, and dental. These funds are included in governmental activities of the Government-wide Financial Statements because their activities support governmental programs. The internal service funds are then combined into a single, aggregated presentation in the proprietary fund financial statements. Individual data for the internal services funds is provided in the form of combining statements.
Fiduciary funds are used to account for financial resources held for the benefit of parties outside the City government. The City holds these funds in a custodial capacity or as an agent for individuals, private organizations, or other governmental units. Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the Government-wide Financial Statements because the resources of these funds are not available to support the City’s governmental activities.
The Successor Agency to the City of Pacifica Redevelopment Agency Trust Fund was created as a result of the California Supreme Court decision on December 29, 2011, upholding ABx1 26, which eliminated all redevelopment agencies in California and created a process for winding down their operations. Trust funds report an “income statement,” referred to as a Statement of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position.
Notes to the Financial Statements – The notes provide additional details essential to a complete understanding of the information provided in the Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements.
The Notes to the Basic Financial Statements can be found following the Fund Financial Statements in this report.
Required Supplementary Information section of the report provides a budgetary comparison for the major governmental funds. Pension-related schedules can be found here, too.
Other Supplementary Information section contains the combining and individual fund statements and schedules, which provide information for non-major governmental funds and internal service funds, all of which are presented immediately after the required supplementary information.
Finally, Statistical Information section provides readers with the last ten fiscal years' information, such as net position, change in net position, fund balance in governmental funds, assessed values, direct and overlapping property taxes, principal property taxpayers the City of Pacifica has, demographic and economic statistics, principal employers, operating indicators, and capital assets by function.

GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Statement of Net Position
Net position may serve over time as a valuable indicator of the City’s financial position. As noted earlier in the financial highlights, Pacifica’s total net position as of June 30, 2025, was $114,247,031, representing an increase of $8,967,950 over the prior year of $105,279,081, as restated. This increase resulted from the following factors: 1) an increase in total assets of $11.9 million as a result of delivery and capitalization of major capital projects; 2) a decrease of $8.5 million in the deferred outflows of resources related to OPEB and Pension over the prior year, reflecting updates from the most recent actuarial valuations and the City’s ongoing pre-funding strategy through an irrevocable trust with Public Agency Retirement Services (PARS); 3) a decrease of $4.7 million in liabilities which is primarily the payment of long term obligations; 4) A decrease of $0.5 million in deferred inflows of resources from OPEB and Pension based on most recent actuarial reports; 5) Restated net change of $0.2 million from a correction of CIP and implementation of GASB 101.
Total assets and deferred outflows of resources were $279,440,476 as of June 30, 2025, reflecting a
1.0% increase from the prior year of $275,966,771. Total liabilities and deferred inflows were $165,193,445 as of June 30, 2025, compared with $170,481,414 as of June 30, 2024, reflecting a decrease of 3% (Table 1).
As of June 30, 2025, the City reported positive balances in all categories of net position for the government as a whole except for unrestricted net position that remains negative due to the implementation of GASB Statements No 68 and 75 in the fiscal year 2014-15 that started recording the City’s unfunded liabilities related to pension and OPEB in the annual financial statement.
The largest portion of the City’s net position is its net investment in capital assets, which totals $144.8 million. Capital assets are the aggregate value of land, buildings, and improvements used to provide services and are reported net of any related debt used to acquire those still outstanding assets.
Consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City’s investment in capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay these debts must be provided from other sources since the capital assets cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis, Continued
For the year ended June 30, 2025
The City’s restricted net assets of $20.3 million represent resources subject to external restrictions on how the funds may be used, such as constructing specified capital projects, debt service, or other community programs. For governmental activities, decreases in restricted net position reflect progress on capital projects.
The remaining balance of net position is in the unrestricted category, which as of June 30, 2025, is reporting a deficit balance of $(50.9) million. The decline in unrestricted was primarily driven by business-type activities, as unrestricted balances were applied toward capital investments, which corroborates why business-type net investments in capital assets increased. As stated earlier, the deficit (negative) balance in unrestricted net position is due to implementing GASB Statements No. 68, 71, and 75 pension and other post-employment benefits related to liability accruals. It is important to note that these long-term obligations are based on actuarial estimates and do not represent a liability due and payable immediately. Please refer to Note 6 and Note 7 to basic financial statements for more information about the impact of implementing these statements.
Statement of Activities
The Statement of Activities provides information about the City’s revenue and expenses, with an emphasis on measuring net revenues or expenses in each program, explaining in detail the change in Net Position for the year.
The citywide total net position is $114.2 million at the end of the fiscal year. The City’s governmental activities' net position of $79.7 million, an increase of $9.0 million compared to the prior year. The increase is primarily driven by increased program revenue, most notably Childcare program grant receipts, a one-time $2.0 million settlement refund from the State, and a transfer in of $1.8 million for cost reimbursements from other funds. Business-type activities ended the fiscal year with a net position of $34.5 million, reflecting a $0.1 million decrease from the prior year (Table 2) FY25 FY24 FY25 FY24 FY25 FY24

For the year ended June 30, 2025
The citywide total revenues were $86.8 million as of June 30, 2025, an increase of $9.0 million from the previous fiscal year, with Governmental and Business-Type activities increasing by $7.8 million and $1.2 million, respectively. Program revenue for both Governmental and Business-type activities increased by $5.2 million from $33.4 million to $38.6 million, with an increase of $2.3 million in capital grants in Governmental activities and an increase of $1.6 million in charges for services. Revenues from all taxes increased by $1.2 million from $36.4 million to $37.6 million, which includes increases of $0.4 million in property taxes and $0.8 million in all other taxes. Motor Vehicle in-Lieu (VLF) revenue increased by $1.0 million in FY 2025 to $4.8 million. The timing of this source of funding is dependent on the State’s budgeting and the remittance process.
The citywide total expenses were $77.9 million, an increase of $3.4 million or 5% over the prior fiscal year of $74.4 million. The Governmental activities expense increased by $1.9 million. The BusinessType activities expenses increased by $1.5 million. Sewer operation included a $1.1 million increase in depreciation expense and $0.4 million increase in transfer out to motor pool for equipment purchase. Other categories stayed fairly consistent with the prior year. (Table 2) 13 3.a

Governmental Activities Sources of Revenues. In FY 2025, the City Governmental Activities received nearly 58% of its revenue from taxes, including 31% from property taxes, 15% from other taxes, 9% from sales taxes, and 3% from franchise taxes. The city also received 14% in charges for services, 6% from operating contributions and grants, 7% from capital grants, and 7% from Motor Vehicle in-Lieu. Investment earnings take 3% of the total revenue and represent an increase of $0.4 million over the prior fiscal year.
Governmental Activities Use of Resources. In FY 2025, 80% of the City’s expenditure from Governmental Activities was attributable to direct municipal services such as Public Safety, Public Works, Parks, Beaches and Recreation, and Community Development with 45%, 15%, 12%, and 8%, respectively. This decreased compared with 82% in the prior year. Total expenditures were $57.4 million in FY 2025, an increase of $1.9 million compared to $55.5 million in the prior fiscal year. While Public Works expenditures decreased by $3.4 million, this reduction was offset by increased spending in General Government ($1.8 million), Public Safety ($2.9 million), Community Development ($0.5 million), and Parks, Beaches and Recreation ($0.1 million). 14 3.a

The majority of these governmental activities are financed through City taxes. However, program revenues generated by specific services help offset a portion of related departmental expenditures.
In FY 2025 governmental expenditures totaled $57.4 million and were partially offset by $17.9 million in program revenues, an increase of $3.5 million from $14.4 in the prior year. (Table 3) These program revenues of $17.9 million included $9.1 million in charges for services, $4.0 million in operating grants and contributions, and $4.8 million in capital grants and contributions. Charges for services include traffic safety fines, plan check fees, building inspection fees, other charges related to new construction, and fees associated with parks, beaches, and recreational programs and events.
Operating grants and contributions are restricted for operations-related expenditures, while capital grants and contributions are required for capital investments purposes. (Table 2) General

Business-type Activities
The net position of the City’s business-type activities decreased by $0.1 million from a beginning net position, as restated at $34.6 million to $34.5 million at the end of the fiscal year. Total revenues for business-type activities were $22.1 million, an increase of $1.2 million compared to the prior fiscal year, driven by a $1.7 million increase in charges for services, partially offset by a decrease of $0.5 million in interest earnings. (Table 2 and Proprietary Funds Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Fund Net Position)
Business-type activity expenses totaled $20.4 million at the end of the fiscal year, an increase of $1.5 million, or 8 percent, compared to $18.9 million in the prior fiscal year. The increase was driven primarily by higher depreciation expense and transfers out to the Motor Pool Fund for vehicle purchases for the Sewer Enterprise Fund. Additional increases in expenses are attributable to the implementation of GASB Statement No. 101 related to the recognition of sick leave liabilities. (Table 2 and Proprietary Funds Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Fund Net Position) Unlike governmental activities, program revenues from business-type activities fully cover the cost of operations without reliance on City taxes. The City periodically reviews and adjusts sewer and parking rates to ensure revenues are sufficient to cover operating costs and long-term liabilities. In recent years, the Beach Parking Fund has experienced declines in certain sources, including parking fees and related fines and forfeitures. This fund will be analyzed in more detail during the budget cycle.
The Sewer Enterprise Fund has initiated the sewer rate study for the next 5-year cycle, which is anticipated to take effect in FY 2027-28 upon adoption by the City Council.
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE CITY’S MAJOR FUNDS
In government accounting, the major vs. non-major fund test determines which funds are significant enough to be reported separately in financial statements, using a two-part quantitative rule (10% of its fund type total AND 5% of combined governmental/enterprise totals for assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures), plus qualitative judgment, with the General Fund always being major, to provide clarity to users. Non-major funds are then aggregated into a single column and found in the Supplementary Information section of the ACFR, allowing the City’s larger and more significant funds to be highlighted more clearly.
Governmental Funds
The focus of the City’s Governmental Funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the financial requirements and stability of the City. Unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government’s net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.
In FY 2024-25, the City’s Governmental Funds reported total fund balances of $45.1 million, which is an increase of $4.6 million from restated $40.5 million in the prior fiscal year. The net change consists of a $3.9 million increase in the General Fund fund balance, an increase of $2.9 million in Disaster Accounting Fund, and a $2.3 million decrease in combined fund balances of the City’s remaining governmental funds. The Disaster Accounting Fund was reclassified as a major fund this year as a result of the major vs. non-major fund test. (Table 4)
The General Fund and the Disaster Accounting Fund are considered major funds and are reported separately in the basic Financial Statements. As of FY 2025, the General Capital Improvement Fund 16 3.a

qualifies as a Nonmajor Governmental Fund, and information on these types of funds can be found in the Supplementary Information section of the ACFR.
General Fund
The General Fund is the City’s primary operating fund. General Fund revenues totaled $50.6 million in the current fiscal year compared to $46.5 million in the prior fiscal year. This $4.1 million, or 8.8%, increase is a result of the following main factors: an increase of $1.3 million in property tax, an increase of $1.5 million in intergovernmental receipts, an increase of $1.0 million in charges for services, and a modest increase of $0.1 million in recreational program revenues.
General Fund expenditures totaled $45.5 million, an increase of $4.3 million or 10.4%, compared to $41.2 million in the prior year. General Government expenditures increased by $1.1 million from $7.0 million in FY 2024, driven mainly by higher personnel costs ($0.4 million), and increased legal, litigation-related activities ($0.6 million). Public Safety expenditures increased as well, with Police Department costs rising by $0.7 million due to higher personnel costs associated with the implementation of new memorandum of understanding (MOU) provisions and increased overtime resulting from staffing challenges. Fire Department expenditures increased by $1.0 million, due to higher emergency response and increased overtime costs of $0.7 million, and $0.3 million increase in retirement costs. The Community Development Department expenditures increased by $0.8 million primarily due to higher contractual services in the Planning Division. Public Works expenditures increased by $0.2 million, mainly due to an increase in Engineering Services. Parks, Beaches, and Recreation expenditures rose by $0.5 million, primarily due to filling vacancies and other program increases.
During the fiscal year, the General Fund received $1.4 million in transfers from various funds, including the Measure A Street Construction Fund, Gas Tax Fund, and NPDES Stormwater Fund, to offset salaries and benefits for staff directly supporting those programs. The General Fund also transferred out $2.6 million to support street improvements and other capital improvement projects, fund General Liability insurance premiums, and contribute to Internal Service Funds for future fire equipment replacements and Motor Pool vehicle purchases.

The Debt Service transfer out from the General Fund was temporarily paused in FY 2025 as the Debt Service Fund had enough balance to cover the debt services payments. Additional information related to these transfers can be found in the Interfund Transactions section - Note 9B in the Notes to the Basic Financial Statements.
The General Fund balance of $22.6 million as of June 30, 2025, showed an increase of $3.9 million from the prior fiscal year’s restated balance of $18.7 million. The City Council assigned $5.6 million in reserves for specific purposes, as described in Note 10 of the Notes to the Basic Financial Statements. A total of $16.4 million of the General Fund balance remains unassigned, showing a positive increase of $3.8 million from the prior year of $12.6 million.
Disaster Accounting Fund
The Disaster Accounting Fund, with a fund balance of $10 million, holds funds used for emergencies and disaster events. It has a net change of $3.0 million in FY 2025. This fund was reclassified to a major fund as noted above. The revenue received is mainly from Excess ERAF (education revenue augmentation fund) revenues (1.7 million in FY25), strategically set aside for emergencies.
Additionally, a one-time refund of a legal deposit in the amount of $2.0 million and $0.3 million FEMA reimbursement from the 2023 Winter Storm further increased the balance of the fund. The total expenditures of $1.0 million were mostly for small emergency contractual services payments and included almost $0.6 million transfer out to General Capital Improvements for various capital projects. (Table 4)
Proprietary Funds
The City’s proprietary fund statements provide the same information found in the government-wide financial statements. The City’s enterprise funds include the Sewer Utility Fund and Beach Parking Fund, while the Internal Service Funds include Self Insurance Dental, Workers’ Compensation, General Liability, Motor Pool Operations, Motor Pool Replacement, and Fire Equipment Replacement Funds.

Sewer Utility Enterprise Fund
The Sewer Utility Enterprise Fund accounts for the operation and maintenance of the City’s wastewater system, including the operating costs of the wastewater collection system and water recycling plant. It is a major enterprise fund in the proprietary funds.
The fund’s total revenue increased by $1.7 million from the prior year’s $18.6 million to current year of $20.3 million, mainly from a one-time insurance settlement payment of $1.1 million for the Anza Pump station emergency repairs project received in FY 2024-25. The sewer service charges increased by $0.6 million over the last fiscal year.
Total operating expenses of the Sewer Utility Fund increased by $1.3 million, primarily due to a $1.1 million increase in depreciation expense, and $0.3 million payment increase for construction services.
The non-operating revenue/expenses decreased by $0.7 million: Interest revenue decreased by $0.4 million because of a reduction in the interest received, and interest expense increased by $0.3 million as a result of accruals and interest payment per the debt service schedule.
During FY 2025, the fund transferred out $1,752,800, an increase of $774,100 compared to the prior year. The transfer primarily covers Wastewater’s share of general liability, and insurance costs, as well as Motor Pool equipment purchases.
The Sewer Utility Fund reported a total net position of approximately $34.6 million as of fiscal yearend, which remained relatively flat compared to the prior year, with a change in net position of $37,798. A significant portion of the net position, $49.2 million, is related to the City’s net investment in capital assets, resulting in the unrestricted net position of a negative $14.6 million. The Sewer Utility Fund uses the full accrual basis of accounting, under which unfunded pension and other postemployment benefits (OPEB) liabilities are recorded, contributing to the negative unrestricted net position.
Internal Service Funds
The Internal Service Funds represent funds to cover employee dental expenses and risk management funds, including general liability and the worker’s compensation programs. Additionally, the Motor Pool Fund supports the day-to-day operation and maintenance, and replacement purchases of city vehicles and equipment. The Internal Service Funds experienced an increase in net position of $0.4 million, compared to the prior year, primarily due to capitalization of the vehicle purchases. (Table 5)
GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS
Detailed information on budget variances can be found in the Budgetary Comparison Schedule, and General Fund notes as required supplementary information. The Adopted Fiscal Year 2024-25 General Fund budget conservatively assumed slow revenue growth. The ongoing budgeted expenditures were also contained mainly at the same service level, and within the forecasted revenue to maintain a structurally balanced budget.
Total General Fund revenues were $50.6 million, exceeding the amended budget of $46.8 million by $3.8 million. Total expenditures remain consistent with the prior year at $45.5 million, only $0.1 million less than the amended budget of $45.6 million.

For the year ended June 30, 2025
The most significant differences between amended final budget and actual results were as follows:
Total Sales Tax revenue were right on target, only exceeding the budget by $0.1 million in Measure Y.
Utility Users Tax (UUT) revenues exceeded budget by approximately $0.4 million, contributing to an overall $0.8 million favorable variance in General Fund other tax revenues, which also included higher Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) receipts.
Use of money and property revenues exceeded the final budget by a modest $0.1 million as a result of higher rental income and investment earnings due to timely rent collection and close monitoring of investment activities.
Intergovernmental revenues exceeded the final budget by $1.3 million, primarily due to slightly higher vehicle license fees of $0.2 million and Childcare program grant reimbursement of $1.1 million that was received from the State for the prior years’ reimbursement. Charges for services exceeded the final budget by $0.7 million, mainly due to several OES reimbursements for Fire services related to the Bridge Fire in September 2024, the Park Fire in November 2024, and the Palisades Fire in January 2025.
Other miscellaneous revenues exceeded budget by $0.7 million, largely due to the Childcare program receipts from non-state grant-related fees, along with insurance settlements. General Government total expenditures were under budget by $1.3 million, mainly due to operating and salary savings and delays in some budgeted initiatives and projects. Expenditures in Public Safety were over budget by $1.6 million. The Police Department’s expenditures were over budget by $0.5 million, mostly because of personnel benefits and payouts related to retirements. Fire Department’s expenditures exceeded the budget by $1.1 million in personnel cost, primarily due to overtime associated with OES responses, most of which is reimbursable.
Community Development Department expenditures were under budget by about $0.5 million, mostly due to the timing of reimbursable expenses.
Public Works expenditures exceeded the final budget by $0.1 million, primarily due to the allocation of retirement contributions related to the Unfunded Actuarial Liability (UAL) across various divisions.
Expenditures for Parks, Beaches, and Recreation were very much aligned with the final budget as a whole.
CAPITAL ASSETS AND LONG-TERM DEBT ADMINISTRATION
Capital Assets
As reported in the Statement of Net Position, capital assets for the Governmental and Business-type activities totaled $186.8 million on June 30, 2025, showing an increase of $19.3 million from $167.5 million in the prior fiscal year. The investment in capital assets includes land, construction in progress, buildings, improvements, machinery and equipment, and infrastructure. The City records its capital assets at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is unavailable. The City 20 3.a

depreciates all capital assets on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life. The City’s capital assets are summarized in Table 6. Additional information on capital assets may be found in Note 4 in the Notes to the Basic Financial Statements.
The Governmental portion of capital assets increased by $8.0 million from the prior year’s total of $103.7 million to the current year’s total of $111.7 million due to the capitalization of projects such as the Esplanade/Palmetto Bike Pathway project and Sharp Park construction project. Capital assets for business-type activities increased by $11.4 million, from $63.7 million in the prior fiscal year to $75.1 million in the current fiscal year, mainly from capitalization of two Wastewater projects: Lower Linda Mar wastewater collection systems and Ultraviolet Disinfection System.
Long-Term Debt
On June 30, 2025, the City’s long-term debt obligations totaled $70.9 million. Governmental Activities had an outstanding debt of approximately $21.8 million, and the Business-Type activities had an outstanding $49.1 million. Overall, the citywide total debt decreased from the prior year by $5.3 million in FY 2025 due to normal debt service scheduled payments.

ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR’S BUDGET AND RATES
The San Francisco Bay Area is at the center of a dynamic and innovative region with a long track record of creating jobs and opportunities, lasting social and cultural impacts, and tools and ideas that are used worldwide. San Francisco also stands to benefit from an “AI Gold Rush” with anticipated tech expansion that will help boost the downtown area. San Mateo County’s economy remains robust and affluent, underpinned by high professional incomes and expanding property values. Employment is improving, with the unemployment rate reaching a high of 5% in July 2025, but steadily decreasing to 4.6% in September, data in the remaining months will not be published by the BLS due to the government shutdown, however San Francisco County has speculated closer to a 4.2% current unemployment rate. But, housing affordability remains a critical issue: construction hasn't kept pace with demand, while property tax income is rising, stagnant population growth and lack of housing expansion may limit long-term revenue potential.
The City's economic conditions and major initiatives for the coming year are discussed in the accompanying Transmittal Letter authored by the City Manager, Kevin Woodhouse.
Development of the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Budget included an update to the Long Term Financial Forecast (LTFF), and was presented to the City Council on April 14, 2025. With the April 2025 updates, the City's Budget was adopted as a balanced budget, but not considered structurally balanced, as one-time mechanisms were used to achieve the results. The financial model at that time projected structural deficits starting in FY 2026-27 in the amount of $2.7 million. The LTFF was later updated for the Revenue Generation Council Study Session on November 10th, 2025, however the assumptions below are what was used for budget adoption thus included here.
Below are some key points and assumptions applied to the FY2025-2026 budget (additional information can be found in the FY2025-26 Adopted budget document, also available on the City’s website https://www.cityofpacifica.org/departments/administrative-services/finance).
FY 2025-26 General Fund Revenue Assumptions
Revenue estimates are based on the most current information from department feedback, external sources, and further analysis. The following revenue assumptions were included in the preparation of the base budget:
Property Tax is the City's biggest revenue category. Based on the current collection trends, consistent with the anticipated increases in the assessed market value and information provided by the County and HdL, the City’s property tax consultant, these revenues assume a 3% increase for the upcoming year and annually thereafter.
Vehicle License Fees (VLF) are tied to property-assessed value growth and a corresponding growth in tax revenue. Utilizing the estimates from San Mateo County, VLF assumes a 6.6% increase year over year, however the State has been unable to fulfill its payments in the year due, causing a shortfall each year. The shortfall becomes an estimate to be received two years later, which is referenced as a backfill. The FY 2025-26 Adopted Budget includes the projected shortfall in the current year of $2.8 million, which will be due in FY 2028. The preliminary assumptions included backfill to be received in the current year owed from FY 2024, in the amount of $2.3 million. After the State of California adopted its budget, the VLF backfill was reduced by 1/3, a reduction of $775k. This has caused a budget deficit to be addressed through the mid-year process. The base annual VLF has been reduced 22 3.a

by the projected shortfall each year going forward, as well as increased by the projected two-year backfill. This revenue is in constant jeopardy, depending on the State’s budget situation, and the County of San Mateo will be filing a writ of mandate for the wrongfully withheld 1/3 of funds. Sales Tax assumes a modest increase of 2% for three years based on the most recent projections by HdL (the City’s Sales Tax consultant), followed by a 2.5% increase for the next seven years to consider the cyclical nature of these revenues driven by the local economy. Measure Y is the new ½ % voter-approved Transaction and Use Tax that went into effect on April 1, 2023. The same projection method is applied to Measure Y as the other regular 1% of Bradley Burns Local Sales and Use Tax mentioned above, assuming 2% increase for FY 2026 through FY 2028 and
2.5% for the future years. Measure Y Transaction and Use Tax measure is scheduled to sunset in 2031, however for the financial forecast, it is carried through the entirety of the ten-year forecast. Transient Occupancy Tax assumes a 2.5% increase for FY 2026 through FY 2028 and a normal inflation change of 3% thereafter for the subsequent seven years. Unfortunately, due to the Council’s recent ordinance changes related to short-term rental (STR) regulations, the forecast incorporates a reduction of almost $1.5 million over the next three years. Utility Users' Taxes (UUT) also assume a uniform 2% increase for all ten years, consistent with current collections trends.
Other Taxes include business license tax, cannabis operations tax, and franchise tax. A modest
2.5% increase is projected for these tax categories in future years. However, this category was also affected by the Council’s recent ordinance changes related to STR regulations and a slight decrease in business license activity was incorporated.
For FY 2025-26, the General Fund received 100% of the Excess Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund (ERAF) revenues projected. This is a one-time change from the Council Policy of allocating only $145K of ERAF to the General Fund and splitting the rest of the ERAF funding, by 50% each, between the Disaster Accounting Fund (Fund 238) and the Housing In lieu Fund (Fund 224). For FY 2027 through FY 2035, the financial forecast reverts to just the $145k General Fund allocation.
Departmental or Program Revenues include building, planning, and other permits, recreation revenues, grants, and rentals. In FY 2026 through FY 2028, this category includes a 2% increase, and a 3.5% increase thereafter based on the anticipated continuation of the current service activity level, plus inflationary adjustments to the Wastewater Fund administrative service fee and an anticipated increase in investment income. However, this category was also affected by the Council’s recent ordinance changes related to STR regulations and a slight decrease in STR permits was incorporated.
Operating Transfers in remains flat. This category mainly includes the cost recovery reimbursements from Fund 216 (NPDES), Fund 210 (Gas Tax) and Fund 209 (Measure A).
FY 2025-26 General Fund Expenditure Assumptions
Salaries and Benefits (S&B) The FY 2025-26 adopted budget includes a full-time equivalent count of 201.75 citywide. FY 2026 through FY 2028 include projections for changes to recently amended 23 3.a

Management’s Discussion and Analysis, Continued
For the year ended June 30, 2025
labor contracts, as well as a projected 5% in salary savings. During the budget process Council made a one-time policy decision of not allocating $214k to the pension trust for FY 2025-26. The remaining years include a 4.0% increase annually thereafter to account for increases related to cost of medical, dental, and vision benefits, PERS rates, and unfunded pension liability payments, merit, and other labor-related increases, with no salary savings factor, and include contributions to both the pension and OPEB trusts.
Contractual Services category assumes an annual increase of 2.0% for most City contracts to account for inflation and regular CPI increases in existing contracts. Materials, Supplies, and Maintenance category assumes a modest 1.5% increase each year to account for inflation.
Operating Transfers Out Debt Service category is projected to be in accordance with the City’s updated debt service schedule for each projected year. These are the major debt service obligations included in financing: 2016 COP, 2019 POB, 2021 Civic Center, and the new 2023 Fire Equipment Lease. A reduction of the debt payment starting with FY 2031 is related to the projected payoff for the Pension Obligation Bond.
Operating Transfers Out Allocations category accounts for transfers to Internal Service Funds, including the Risk Management funds for General Liability and Worker's Compensation insurance premiums and Motor Pool funds to cover motor pool operating expenditures. Also included in this category is an ongoing allocation to the motor pool vehicle replacement fund in order build up fund balance for future fleet replacement. The forecast shows a modest 1.5% increase each year to account for rising insurance premiums.
Capital Transfers Out category contains the approved allocation of $50k for the FY 2025-26 budget year. The forecast incorporates a minimal ongoing contribution to capital in future years.
Overall, the Adopted FY 2025-26 Budget is balanced and reflects the City Council’s strategic vision, direction, and priorities. Fiscal sustainability remains a top priority as the City continues to deliver quality programs and services in a financially sustainable manner.

For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The basic financial statements of the City of Pacifica (City) have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) as applied to governmental agencies. The Governmental Accounting Standards Boards (“GASB”) is the accepted standard setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. The more significant accounting principles are described below.
A. Financial Reporting Entity
The City of Pacifica was incorporated November 22, 1957 under the general laws of the State of California and enjoys all the rights and privileges applicable to a General Law City. The City operates under a Council-Manager form of government. There are five Council Members who serve overlapping terms of four years, and the Council, in turn, elects one of the Council Members to serve as Mayor for one year. This legislative body selects a City Manager to administer the affairs of the City. The City provides the following services: public safety (police, fire, and civil defense), highways and streets, sanitation, health and social services, culture- recreation, public improvements, planning and zoning, and general administrative services.
As required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the accompanying financial statements include the financial activities of the City.
The City of Pacifica Financing Authority is a separate government entity whose purpose is to assist with the financing certain public capital facilities for the City through the issuance of bonds or other forms of debt. The Authority is controlled by the City and has the same governing body as the City, which also performs all accounting and administrative functions for the Authority. The Authority is a blended component unit of the City and does not issue separate financial statements.
There are no other entities which meet criteria under generally accepted accounting principles for blended or discrete disclosure within these financial statements.
B. Basis of Presentation
The City’s basic financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the acknowledged standard-setting body for establishing accounting and financial reporting standards followed by governmental entities in the United States of America.
The City’s government-wide financial statements include a Statement of Net Position and a Statement of Activities. These statements present summaries of governmental activities and business-type activities for the City, accompanied by a total column. These financial statements include the financial activities of the overall City government, except for fiduciary activities. Eliminations have been made to minimize the double counting of internal activities. Governmental activities are financed generally through taxes, intergovernmental revenues, and other nonexchange transactions. Business-type activities are financed generally through user fees.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued C. Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements
The Statement of Activities presents a comparison between direct expenses and program revenues for each function of the City’s governmental activities. Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated with a program or function and therefore are clearly identifiable to a particular function.
Program revenues include three categories: (1) charges for services, (2) operating grants and contributions and (3) capital grants and contributions. Revenues that are not classified as program revenues, including all taxes, are presented as general revenues. Interfund services provided and used are not eliminated in the process of consolidation on the Statement of Activities.
Certain eliminations have been made as prescribed by generally accepted accounting principles in regard to interfund activities, payables and receivables.
D. Financial Statements
The fund financial statements provide information about the City’s funds. Separate statements for each fund category—governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary—are presented. The emphasis of fund financial statements is on major individual funds, each of which is displayed in a separate column. All remaining funds are aggregated and reported as nonmajor funds. All fiduciary funds are considered nonmajor.
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 balance as presented in these statements to the net position presented in the government-wide financial statements.
Proprietary fund financial statements include a Statement of Net Position, a Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position, and a Statement of Cash Flows for all proprietary funds. The internal service funds are also presented in these statements. However, internal service balances and activities have been combined with the governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements.
Operating revenues in the proprietary funds are those revenues that are generated from the primary operation of the fund. All other revenues are reported as nonoperating revenues. Operating expenses are those expenses that are essential to the primary operations of the fund. All other expenses are reported as nonoperating expenses.
Fiduciary Fund Financial Statements include a Statement of Net Position and a Statement of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position. Fiduciary funds represent private-purpose trust funds, which the City serves as a trustee for the Successor Agency. Fiduciary funds are accounted for on an economic resources measurement focus and full accrual basis of accounting. The City has one fiduciary fund, the RDA Successor Agency private-purpose trust fund.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued E. Major Funds
Generally accepted accounting principles define major funds and require that the City’s major governmental funds be identified and presented separately in the Fund financial statements. All other funds, called non-major funds, are combined and reported in a single column, regardless of their fundtype. Major funds are defined as funds which have either assets and deferred outflows, liabilities and deferred inflows, revenues or expenditures/expenses equal to or greater than ten percent of their fund-type total and five percent of the grand total of all fund types, excluding fiduciary. The general fund is always a major fund. The major funds of the City are:
• General Fund – The General Fund is used to account for the resources to carry out basic governmental activities of the City such as general government, public safety, public works, community development, and parks, beaches, and recreation, which are not required to be accounted for in another fund.
• Disaster Accounting Fund – This fund is used to account for all revenues and expenditures incurred due to natural and man-made disasters.
The City reports the following major enterprise fund:
• The Sewer Utility Enterprise Fund – This fund accounts for the operation and maintenance of the City’s wastewater collection system including operating costs of the wastewater collection system and water recycling plant.
Additionally, the City reports the following fund types:
• The Internal Service Funds account for the financing of goods or services provided by one department or agency to other departments or agencies of the government and to other government units on a cost reimbursement basis. The City has three internal service funds, the Motor Pool Fund, the Self Insurance Fund and the Fire Equipment Replacement Fund. The Motor Pool Fund accounts for the City’s central garage, the Self Insurance Fund accounts for the employee dental, workers’ compensation, general liability, property, and automobile liability insurance, and the Fire Equipment Replacement Fund accounts for the funding and replacement of fire equipment for the Fire Department.
• The RDA Successor Agency Private-Purpose Trust Fund accounts for the former Redevelopment Agency activities.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued F. Basis of Accounting
The government-wide, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds financial statements are required by generally accepted accounting principles to be reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, all of the City’s assets and deferred outflows, liabilities and deferred inflows, including capital 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 regardless of when the related cash flows take place.
The governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus, and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, only current assets and liabilities (except for long-term advances from the City) are included in the Balance Sheet. The Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances present 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.
The City considers all revenues reported in the governmental funds to be available if the revenue is collected within ninety days after fiscal year end. The primary revenue sources, which have been treated as susceptible to accrual by the City, are property taxes, sales taxes, intergovernmental revenues, other taxes and investment earnings. Expenditures are recorded in the accounting period in which the related fund liability is incurred, except for principal and interest on long-term debt, including lease liabilities, subscription liabilities, and compensated absences, which are recognized as expenditures to the extent that they have matured. Capital asset acquisitions, including entering into contracts giving the City the right to use leased assets and right-to-use subscription assets, are reported as expenditures in governmental funds. Proceeds of long-term debt and acquisitions under lease financings and subscription liabilities are reported as other financing sources.
Non-exchange transactions, in which the City gives or receives value without directly receiving or giving value in exchange, include taxes, grants, entitlements and donations. On the accrual basis, revenue from taxes is recognized in the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied or assessed. Revenue from grants, entitlements and donations is recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements have been satisfied.
Grant revenues are recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements are met. Under the terms of grant agreements, the City may fund certain programs with a combination of costreimbursement grants, categorical block grants and general revenues. Thus, both restricted and unrestricted net position may be available to finance program expenditures. The City’s policy is to first apply restricted grant resources to such programs, followed by general revenues if necessary. 48 3.a

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued G. Cash and Cash Equivalents
The City considered cash and cash equivalents (investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase) as short term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash and so near their maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. The City follows the practice of pooling the cash of all funds, including the City’s Enterprise and Internal Service Funds. For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the City’s proprietary funds consider their demand deposits and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
H. Investments
Investments are reported at fair value, except for investments that are not transferable and have terms that are not affected by change in market rates are reported at cost.
Changes in fair value that occur during a fiscal year are recognized as revenues from use of money reported for that fiscal year. Revenues from use of money include interest earnings, change in fair value, gains or losses realized upon the liquidation, maturity, or sale of investment and rental income.
Changes in the fair value of investments during this fiscal year were calculated and booked.
I. Receivables and Payables
All accounts, grants, tax, and note receivables are shown net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts if applicable, and estimated refunds due.
J. Inventories and Prepaid Items
General fund inventories are recorded as expenditures when consumed, rather than when purchased.
These inventories are stated at cost, using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories in the proprietary funds are stated at the lower of cost or market, and consist of expendable materials and supplies.
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods, and are recorded as prepaid items in both the government-wide and fund financial statements using the consumption method. Under this method, prepaid items are recorded as expenditures when used rather than when purchased.
Inventories and prepaid items, as reported in the fund financial statements, are offset by nonspendable fund balance for noncurrent assets in governmental funds, to indicate that they do not constitute resources available for appropriation.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued K. Encumbrances
The City uses encumbrances to control expenditure commitments for the year. Encumbrances represent commitments related to executor contracts not yet performed and purchase orders not yet filled.
Commitments for such expenditure of monies are encumbered to reserve a portion of applicable appropriations. Encumbrances still open at year end are not accounted for as expenditures and liabilities, but as restricted, assigned or unassigned fund balance.
L. Compensated Absences
City employees accrue vacation, sick, holiday, and compensatory time off benefits. An employee may accumulate vacation time equal to an amount as stipulated in their contracts. No cash compensation is payable for accrued vacation until the employee terminates employment. Sick leave is compensated in cash only upon an employee's retirement, with a maximum limit per employee of $3,000 or one quarter of employee's sick leave credit, whichever is lower. Two employee groups have elected to participate in a retirement health savings program and have directed vacation and limited sick leave cash out to separation of this program. It is the City's policy to allow employees to accumulate compensatory time within set limits instead of drawing overtime. This accumulation may subsequently be exchanged into cash or time taken.
The City's liability for compensated absences is recorded in the government-wide statement of net position and proprietary fund financial statements. Liabilities for leave are assumed to be accrued using the last in, first out method, meaning the most recently earned leave is used first. The City recognizes a liability for compensated absences, including sick leave, that is more likely than not to be used as time off or settled in cash. The liability is measured at the base salary rate plus applicable employer costs. A liability for compensated absences is reported in the governmental funds only when they have matured (such as amounts estimated to be paid upon retirement or termination by the end of the fiscal year with expendable available financial resources). Each fiscal year, an adjustment to the liability is made based on pay rate changes and adjustments for the current portion.
Changes in compensated absences for the year ended June 30, 2025, were as follows:

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued M. Property Tax Revenues
California Constitution Article XIII A limits the combined property tax rate to one percent of a property’s assessed valuation. Additional taxes may be imposed with voter approval. Assessed value is calculated at one hundred percent of a property’s fair value, as defined by Article XIII A, and may be increased no more than two percent per year unless a change in ownership occurs. The County of San Mateo collects the taxes and distributes them to taxing jurisdictions on the basis of assessed valuations subject to adjustments for voter-approved debt. The City receives property taxes pursuant to an arrangement with the County known as the “Teeter Plan,” whereby the County assumes responsibility for the collection of delinquent taxes and pays the full allocation to the City. The City recognizes property tax revenues (including tax increment revenues) to the extent of each year’s tax allocation received or to be received within 60 days after the end of each fiscal year.
The County assesses properties, bills for, collects, and distributes property taxes per the following schedule:
The term “Unsecured” refers to taxes on personal property other than real estate, land, and buildings.
These taxes are secured by liens on property being taxed.
N. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
O. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The City categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. The fair value hierarchy categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued O. Fair Value Measurements, Continued
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 inputs are inputs – other than quoted prices included within level 1 – that are observable for an asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for an asset or liability.
If the fair value of an asset or liability is measured using inputs from more than one level of the fair value hierarchy, the measurement is considered to be based on the lowest priority level input that is significant to the entire measurement.
P. Leases
A lease is defined as a contract that conveys control of the right to use another entity's nonfinancial asset (the underlying asset) as specified in the contract for a period of time in an exchange or exchange-like transaction. Examples of nonfinancial assets include buildings, land, vehicles, and equipment. The City recognizes lease receivables or liabilities with an initial, individual value of $150,000 or more, based on the future lease payments remaining at the start of the lease.
The City has no leases subject to being recorded as of June 30, 2025.
Q. Subscription-Based Information Technology Arrangements A Subscription-Based Information Technology Arrangement (SBITA) is a contract that conveys control of the right to use another party’s (a SBITA vendor’s) IT software, alone or in combination with tangible capital assets (the underlying IT assets), as specified in the contract for a period of time in an exchange or exchange-like transaction. The City recognizes SBITA assets/liabilities with an initial, individual value of $150,000 or more.
At the commencement of a SBITA, the City initially measures the subscription liability at the present value of payments expected to be made during the contract term. Subsequently, the subscription liability is reduced by the principal portion of payments made. The subscription asset is initially measured as the initial amount of the subscription liability, adjusted for payments made at or before the SBITA commencement date, plus certain initial direct costs. Subsequently, the subscription asset is amortized on a straight‐line basis over shorter of the subscription term or the useful life of the underlying IT assets.
Key estimates and judgments related to SBITAs include how the City determines (1) the discount rate it uses to discount the expected subscription payments to present value, (2) subscription term, and (3) subscription payments as follows:

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued Q. Subscription-Based Information Technology Arrangements, Continued • The City uses the interest rate charged by the IT vendor as the discount rate. When the interest rate charged by the IT vendor is not provided, the City generally uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for subscription liabilities. • The subscription term includes the noncancellable period of the subscription.
The City monitors changes in circumstances that would require a remeasurement of its subscription and will remeasure the subscription asset and liability if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the subscription liability.
Subscription assets are reported with other capital assets and subscription liabilities are reported on the statement of net position. The City did not have any SBITAs that met the criteria for capitalization as of June 30, 2025.
2. STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE, AND ACCOUNTABILITY
A. Budgetary information
The City operates under the general law of the State of California, and annually adopts a budget to be effective July 1 for the ensuing fiscal year. The City Manager submits a Preliminary Budget to the City Council on or about May 15 each year. This Preliminary Budget is the fiscal plan for the ensuing twelve months starting July 1, and includes proposals for expenditures for operations and capital improvement, and the resources to meet them. City Council conducts public hearings in the Council Chambers before adopting the budget. The Council approves total appropriations at the department level in the General Fund, and at the fund level in other funds. The Budget is adopted by City resolution prior to June 30.
The appropriated budget is prepared by fund, function, and department. The City Manager is authorized to transfer budget appropriations within funds and departments as deemed necessary to meet the City's operational needs. The legal budgetary control of the City Council is at the fund level, this is the level where City management cannot overspend the Budget without approval from the City Council.
Expenditures are budgeted at, and may not legally exceed, the department level for the General Fund and the fund level for Special Revenue, Debt Service, Capital Projects and Internal Service Funds.
Budgeted amounts shown are as originally adopted, or as amended by the City Council during the fiscal year. During the fiscal year, several supplementary appropriations were necessary. 53 3.a

2. STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE, AND ACCOUNTABILITY, Continued A. Budgetary information, Continued
Budgets for General, Special Revenue, Debt Service, Capital Projects, and Internal Service Funds are adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP). Except for Capital Project Funds, appropriations lapse at fiscal year-end and are re-budgeted for the coming year. The following capital projects funds are not budgeted annually:
Aircraft Noise Project Fund and Pacific Library Fund. The Housing In- Lieu, Parking In-lieu and Housing Successor Special Revenue Funds are only budgeted when the need for expenditures arise.
Encumbrances represent commitments related to unperformed contracts for goods or services.
Encumbrance accounting, under which purchase orders, contracts, and other commitments for the expenditure of monies are recorded in order to reserve that portion of the applicable appropriation, is employed as an extension of formal budgetary integration in the governmental funds. Encumbrances outstanding at fiscal year-end are recorded as restricted, committed, or assigned fund balances and do not constitute expenditures or liabilities because the commitments will be honored during the subsequent fiscal year.

Gas Tax Special Revenue Fund $ 322,366
Tree Preservation Special Revenue Fund $ 55,867
General Capital Improvement Fund $ 564,926
Beach Parking $ 52,828
The deficit in these governmental funds is due to the City incurring expenditures in advance of receiving revenues. The deficit is going to be repaid once reimbursements are received from the funding source, and if there is an outstanding deficit after the repayments, if needed, the General Fund would cover the deficit.

The table below identifies the investment types that are authorized for investments held by trustee. The table also identifies certain provisions of these debt agreements that address interest rate risk, credit risk, and concentration of credit risk.
C. Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to change in market interest rates. One of the ways that the City manages its exposure to interest rate risk is by purchasing a combination of shorter term and longer term investments and by timing cash flows from maturities so that a portion of the portfolio is maturing or coming close to maturity evenly over time as necessary to provide the cash flows and liquidity needed for operations.

Information about the sensitivity of the fair values of the City’s investments and those held by trustees to market interest rate fluctuations is provided by the following table that shows the distribution of the City’s investments by maturity:
Money market mutual funds are available for withdrawal on demand at June 30, 2025, and have an average maturity of 42 days.
The City does not hold any specific investments that are highly sensitive to interest rate fluctuations (to a greater degree than already indicated in the information provided above).
D. Fair Value Hierarchy
The City categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure fair value of the assets. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in an active market for identical assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observable inputs; and Level 3 inputs are significant unobservable inputs.
Investment in the California Local Agency Investment Fund and money market mutual funds are classified as exempt in the fair value hierarchy, as it is valued at amortized cost, which is exempt from being classified under the fair value hierarchy.

E. Credit Risk
Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. Presented below is the minimum rating required by (where applicable) the California Government Code, the City’s investment policy, or debt agreements, and the actual rating as of fiscal year end for each investment type.
F. Concentration of Credit Risk
The investment policy of the City contains limitations on the amount that can be invested in any one issuer. The City has no investments in any one issuer (other than money market funds and an external investment pool) that represent 5% or more of total City investments.
G. Custodial Credit Risk
Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution, a government will not be able to recover its deposits or will not be able to recover collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. The custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty (e.g., broker- dealer) to a transaction, a government will not be able to recover the value of its investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of another party. The California Government Code and the City’s investment policy do not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to custodial credit risk for deposits or investments, other than the following provision for deposits. The California Government Code requires that a financial institution secure deposits made by state or local governmental units by pledging securities in an undivided collateral pool held by a depository regulated under state law (unless so waived by the governmental unit). The fair value of the pledged securities in the collateral pool must equal at least 110% of the total amount deposited by the public agencies. California law also allows financial institutions to secure City deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the secured public deposits.

H. Investment in State Investment Pool
The City is a 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 City reports its investment in LAIF at the fair value amount provided by LAIF, using a fair value factor of 1.001198310 as of June 30, 2025. The balance is available for withdrawal on demand, and is based on the accounting records maintained by LAIF, which are recorded on an amortized cost basis. Each regular LAIF account is permitted to have up to 15 transactions per month, with a minimum transaction amount of $5,000, a maximum transaction amount of $75 million and at least 24 hours advance notice for withdrawals of $10 million or more. Bond proceeds accounts are subject to a one‐ time deposit with no cap and are set up with a monthly draw down schedule. Included in LAIF’s investment portfolio are collateralized mortgage obligations, mortgage-backed securities, other assetbacked securities, loans to certain state funds, and floating rate securities issued by federal agencies, government-sponsored enterprises, United States Treasury Notes and Bills, and corporations. On June 30, 2025, LAIF’s investments in structured notes and asset-backed securities were 3.81% of the total LAIF balance as compared to 3.00% in the prior year.
The City established an irrevocable Section 115 Pension Trust administered by Public Agency Retirement Services (PARS) in the fiscal year 2021. The Trust is an irrevocable trust and qualifies as an Internal Revenue Section 115 trust. Investments of funds held in Trust are governed by the Investment Guideline Document for the investment account and by the agreement for administrative services with PARS, rather than the general provisions of the California Government Code or the City’s investment policy. This trust will assist the City in mitigating the CalPERS contribution rate volatility. The City elected a discretionary investment approach, which allows the City to maintain oversight of the investment management, control on target yield and the portfolio’s risk tolerance, under the Balanced Index PLUS investment option. This pension trust is a secondary trust to the City’s CalPERS Pension Plan; therefore, the assets are reported in the City’s Pension Stabilization Internal Service Fund. The assets in the Trust will eventually be used to fund pension plan obligations.
As of June 30, 2025, the trust had a balance of $582,633 PARS’ policy for the allocation of invested assets is established as:
Asset Class Target Allocation
Global Equity 20-40%
Fixed Income 50-80%

4. CAPITAL ASSETS
All capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated cost if actual historical cost is not available.
Donated capital assets and those received in a service concession arrangement are recorded at acquisition value at the date of donation. Acquisition value is the price that would be paid to acquire an asset with equivalent service potential on the date of the donation. Generally accepted accounting principles requires that all capital assets with limited useful lives be depreciated over their estimated useful lives. The purpose of the depreciation is to spread the cost of the 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 the capital assets. Depreciation is provided using the straight–line method over its expected useful life. Capital assets with a value of $5,000 or more are capitalized.
The City has assigned the following useful lives to capital assets: Buildings and improvements (25-30 years); Police Vehicles (4 years); Other Vehicles (5-25 years); Machinery and Equipment (5-15 years); Collection System (20 years); and Infrastructure (15-30 years).

6. OTHER POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS (OPEB)
A. Plan Description, Continued
In general, employees in the above groups may choose to receive their medical benefits from Union Trust Plans (except Public Safety – Firefighters and Police) or enroll in any of the CalPERS medical plans. For the retirees who do not participate in the CalPERS medical programs, the City does not make a contribution toward the cost of postemployment healthcare benefits.
B. Funding Policy
Under its arrangement with the CalPERS medical program, the City contributes the minimum amount provided under Government Code Section 22825 of the Public Employees Medical and Hospital Care Act (PEHMCA). The PEHMCA minimum for calendar year 2025 was $158 per month. Retirees must contribute any premium amounts in excess of the City contribution.
Retired Department Directors, retired Management Unit employees, unrepresented managers, and confidential employees receive an additional $100 monthly benefit.
Prior to July 1, 2021, the City’s policy was to contribute an amount sufficient to pay the current year’s minimum employer contribution only.
On September 2, 2020, the City adopted the Public Agencies Post-Employment Benefits Trust (PARS) to prefund other post-employment benefits (OPEB), and the City began making contributions to the trust during fiscal year 2022. The Trust is an irrevocable trust and qualifies as an Internal Revenue Section 115 trust. Investments of funds held in Trust are governed by the Investment Guideline Document for the investment account and by the agreement for administrative services with PARS, rather than the general provisions of the California Government Code or the City’s investment policy.
The City elected a discretionary investment approach, which allows the City to maintain oversight of the investment management, control on target yield and the portfolio’s risk tolerance, under the Capital Appreciation HighMark PLUS investment option. The City’s intent is to pay for retiree healthcare expenses on a pay- as-you-go basis from the City’s general asset and deposit the difference between the Actuarially Determined Contribution and the retiree healthcare expenses to the Trust.

E. Information Common to the Miscellaneous, Safety and PARS Plans CalPERS collects employer contributions for the cost-sharing plan as a percentage of payroll for the normal cost portion as noted in the rates above and as a dollar amount for contributions toward the unfunded liability and side fund. The dollar amounts are billed on a monthly basis. The City’s required contributions for the unfunded liability in the Miscellaneous and Safety Plans were $1,923,242 and $3,768,681 respectively.
PARS Retirement Enhancement Plan (REP) – The City makes all contributions necessary to fund the benefits available under the REP. Employees are not permitted to make any contributions.
Actuarial Assumptions – For the measurement period ended June 30, 2024, for CalPERS, the total pension liabilities were determined by rolling forward the June 30, 2023 total pension liability. The PARS REP total pension liability for the measurement period ended June 30, 2025, was determined by an actuarial valuation as of that date. The June 30, 2025 total pension liabilities were based on the following actuarial methods and assumptions:

E. Information Common to the Miscellaneous, Safety and PARS Plans, Continued CalPERS
Discount Rate – The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability for each Plan was 6.90%.
The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate for each Plan assumed that contributions from all plan members in the Public Employees Retirement Fund (PERF) will be made at the current member contribution rates and the contributions from employers will be made at statutorily required rates, actuarially determined. Based on those assumptions, each Plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members for all plans in the PERF. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on plan investments was applied to all period of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability for each Plan.
In determining the long-term expected rate of return, CalPERS took into account long-term market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund cash flows. Projected returns for all asset classes are estimated and, combined with risk estimates, are used to project compound (geometric) returns over the long term. The discount rate used to discount liabilities was informed by the longterm projected portfolio return.
The expected real rates of return by asset class are as follows:
Asset Class
Assumed Asset
Allocation Real Return (1),(2)
Global Equity-Cap Weighted 30.0% 4.54%
Global Equity-Non-Cap Weighted 12.0% 3.84%

8. RISK MANAGEMENT
A. Workers’ Compensation
The City is a member of the Municipal Pooling Authority of Northern California, which pools risks under the terms of a joint-powers agreement with 31 other cities and governmental agencies. The City has no workers’ compensation deductible for claims and the Authority covers claims up to $500,000.
The Authority purchases excess insurance from $500,000 to the statutory limit. The City paid premiums of $1,042,994 during fiscal year end June 30, 2025 for workers’ compensation and excess workers’ compensation coverage.
The Authority is governed by a Board consisting of representatives from member municipalities. The Board controls the operations of the Authority, including selection of management and approval of operating budgets, independent of any influence by member municipalities beyond their representation on the Board.
The City’s deposits with the Authority are in accordance with formulas established by the Authority.
Actual surpluses or losses are shared according to a formula developed from overall loss costs and spread to member entities on a percentage basis after a retrospective rating.

B. General Liability
On July 1, 1986, the City became a member of the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) Pooled Liability Assurance Network (PLAN). PLAN is a not-for-profit organization established to provide certain levels of liability insurance coverage, claims and risk management services, and legal defense to thirty- one San Francisco Bay Area cities. PLAN is governed by a Board of Directors comprised of officials appointed by each participating member and is administered by the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG). Complete financial statements for ABAG PLAN may be obtained from their offices at the following address: ABAG PLAN Corporation, Finance Department, 375 Beale Street, Ste 700, San Francisco, CA 94105- 2066.
The City paid premiums of $2,314,115 during fiscal year end June 30, 2025 for general liability and property coverage in excess of the City’s self-insured retention. Members may receive rebates when declared by ABAG or, in the event excess liability claims against ABAG exceed available resources, may be required to make additional contributions.
The City is self-insured for the first $50,000 of general liability for each occurrence, and the excess (up to $35,000,000 for each occurrence and annual aggregate) is covered through the City’s participation in the ABAG PLAN.
The City maintains an internal service fund to account for these insurance programs. Claims expenses and liabilities are reported when it is probable that a loss has occurred and the amount of that loss can be reasonably estimated. These losses include an estimate of claims that have been incurred but not reported.
Changes in the total reported liability resulted from the following:
2024 2025
July 1 Liability $ 303,001 $ 174,923
Claims and changes in estimates 213,296 240,878

9. INTERFUND TRANSACTIONS
Activities between funds that are representative of lending/borrowing arrangements outstanding at the end of the fiscal year are referred to as interfund receivables/interfund payables (i.e., the current portion of interfund loans) or advances to/from other funds (the noncurrent portion of interfund loans). All other outstanding balances between funds are reported as interfund receivables or interfund payables. Any residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and the business-type activities are reported in the government-wide financial statements as internal balances.
A. Internal Balances
Internal balances are presented in the entity-wide financial statements only. They represent the net interfund receivables and payables after the elimination of all such balances within governmental and business-type activities.
B. Transfers
Resources may be transferred from one City/District fund to another. The purpose of the majority of transfers is to move resources from one fund to another. Less often, a transfer may be made to open or close a fund.
The following is a summary of transfers for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025:
General Fund – The General Fund transferred money to other funds for capital projects and to the Internal Service Funds to pay for its share of costs in those funds.
Non-Major Governmental Funds – These funds transferred money to the General Fund to support the Public Works Department in street and stormwater maintenance and projects. Transfers among the nonmajor governmental funds were to pay for debt service as well as to repay streets-related funds for prior expenditures and other capital improvement projects.
Sewer Utility – Transfers from this fund were to pay for a portion of insurance costs.

B. Interfund Receivables and Payables
The composition of interfund balances as of June 30, 2025 is as follows:
10. NET POSITION AND FUND BALANCES
A. Net Position
Net position is measured on the full accrual basis, while Fund Balance is measured on the modified accrual basis.
Net position is divided into three captions. These captions apply only to net position as determined at the government-wide level, and are described below:
Net Investment in Capital Assets describes the 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 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 capital projects, revolving loan programs, and other various grant programs.
Unrestricted describes the portion of net position which is not restricted as to use.
When both restricted and unrestricted net position is available, restricted resources are depleted first before the unrestricted resources are used.
B. Fund Balances
Fund balance is divided into five classifications based primarily on the extent to which the City is bound to observe constraints imposed upon the use of the resources in the governmental funds. The classifications are as follows:
Due to/from other funds:
Receivable Fund Payable Fund Amount
General Fund Non-Major Governmental Funds 86,422 $
General Fund Sewer Utility 6,235,349
General Fund Non-Major Enterprise Fund 39,374

10. NET POSITION AND FUND BALANCES, Continued
B. Fund Balances, Continued
Nonspendable – The nonspendable fund balance category includes amounts that cannot be spent because they are not in spendable form, or 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. It also includes the long-term amount of interfund loans.
Restricted – Fund balance is reported as restricted when constraints placed on the use of resources are either externally imposed by creditors (such as through debt covenants), grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments or is imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation (City ordinance).
Enabling legislation authorizes the City to assess, levy, charge, or otherwise mandate payment of resources (from external resource providers) and includes a legally enforceable requirement that those resources be used only for the specific purposes stipulated in the legislation. Legal enforceability means that the City can be compelled by an external party-such as citizens, public interest groups, or the judiciary to use resources created by enabling legislation only for the purposes specified by the legislation.
Committed – The committed fund balance classification includes amounts that can be used only for the specific purposes imposed by formal action (ordinance) of City Council. Those committed amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless City Council removes or changes the specified use by taking the same type of action (ordinance) it employed to previously commit those amounts. In contrast to fund balance that is restricted by enabling legislation, committed fund balance classification may be redeployed for other purposes with appropriate due process. Constraints imposed on the use of committed amounts are imposed by City Council, separate from the authorization to raise the underlying revenue; therefore, compliance with these constraints is not considered to be legally enforceable. Committed fund balance also incorporates contractual obligations to the extent that existing resources in the fund have been specifically committed for use in satisfying those contractual requirements.
Assigned – Amounts in the assigned fund balance classification are intended to be used by the City for specific purposes but do not meet the criteria to be classified as restricted or committed. In the General Fund, assigned amounts represent intended uses established by City Council or a City official delegated that authority by City ordinance (City Manager).
Unassigned – Unassigned fund balance is the residual classification for the General Fund and includes all spendable amounts not contained in the other classifications. In other governmental funds, the unassigned classification is used only to report a deficit balance resulting from overspending for specific purposes for which amounts had been restricted, committed, or assigned.
The City applies restricted resources first when expenditures are incurred for purposes for which either restricted or unrestricted (committed, assigned, and unassigned) amounts are available. 90 3.a

Similarly, within unrestricted fund balance, committed amounts are reduced first followed by assigned, and then unassigned amounts when expenditures are incurred for purposes for which amounts in any of the unrestricted fund balance classifications could be used.

11. CONTINGENCIES
Amounts received or receivable from grantor agencies are subject to audit and adjustment by grantor agencies, principally the Federal Government. Any disallowed claims, including amounts already collected, may constitute a liability of the applicable funds. The amount, if any, of expenditures which may be disallowed by the grantor cannot be determined at this time, although the City expects such amounts, if any, to be immaterial.
The City is a party to litigative matters in the normal course of conducting City business. Two such matters have resulted in judgements that the City considers reasonably possible:
Eminent Domain - In 2019, the City filed an eminent domain action. In 2023, the trial court awarded the property owner $2 million as just compensation plus $361,266 in prejudgment interest, attorneys’ fees, expert fees, and costs. In early 2025, the City Council decided to abandon the eminent domain action and not to acquire the property. On February 11, 2025, the City filed a notice of abandonment and on June 4, 2025, the trial court denied the Motion to Set Aside the Abandonment. On June 23, 2025, the City adopted a resolution rescinding the Resolution of Necessity that had authorized the filing of this action in the first instance. On July 17, 2025, the trial court granted the property owner’s Motion for attorneys' fees and costs. In August 2025, the City paid the property owner $610,220 in attorneys' fees and costs. The sole remaining issue is the compensation, if any, that the City owes the property owner for having taken prejudgment possession of the Property between March 18, 2019 and February 11, 2025. The City wants to resolve the issue via settlement but negotiations are currently on hold with the property owner.
CEQA - Petitioners filed action against a project approval challenging CEQA procedures the City performed, as well as another party involved. On March 6, 2024, the judge signed and entered an Order awarding Petitioners a total of $1,286,145. Of that amount the City is jointly and severally liable for $998,445 with the other parties in the litigation. The City and other parties have appealed the fees. Estimated loss is $0-$998,445.

12. SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO FORMER REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY ACTIVITIES On December 29, 2011, the California Supreme Court upheld Assembly Bill 1X 26 (“the Bill”) that provides for the dissolution of all redevelopment agencies in the State of California. This action impacted the reporting entity of the City of Pacifica that previously had reported a redevelopment agency within the reporting entity of the City as a blended component unit. On January 23, 2012, the City Council elected to become the Successor Agency for the former redevelopment agency in accordance with the Bill as part of the City resolution number 01- 2012.
Long Range Property Management Plan – On December 10, 2015, the Successor Agency received confirmation from the California Department of Finance that it had reviewed and approved the Successor Agency’s Long Range Property Management Plan (LRPMP).
Long-term Debt – Long-term debt of the Successor Agency as of June 30, 2025, consisted of the following:
2004 Tax Allocation Bonds: In August 2004, the former Redevelopment Agency (Agency) issued $1,725,000 in Rockaway Beach Redevelopment Project 2004 Tax Allocation Bonds at interest rates ranging from 2.9% to 5.75%. The net proceeds of the bonds were issued to refinance redevelopment activities by repaying a portion of the loan made by the City to the Agency and to establish a reserve fund. Interest on the bonds is payable semiannually on January 1 and July 1 each year, commencing January 1, 2005. The bonds mature on July 1, 2031. The bonds are payable exclusively from pledged tax revenues to be derived from the project area and from the amounts on deposits in certain funds and accounts, including the reserve account and the revenue account.
The Bonds are general obligations of the Agency payable by the Agency. The bond covenants contain events of default that require the revenue of the Agency to be applied by the Trustee as specified in the terms of the agreement if any of the following conditions occur: default on debt service payments; the failure of the Agency to observe or perform the conditions, covenants, or agreement terms of the debt; bankruptcy filing by the Agency; or if any court or competent jurisdiction shall assume custody or control of the Agency. No such events occurred during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025.
Annual debt service requirements, to maturity, for the 2004 Tax Allocation Bonds are as follows:

13. RESTATEMENTS OF FUND BALANCE AND NET POSITION
A. Prior Period Adjustments due to implementation of GASB Statement 101 – Compensated Absences Effective for fiscal year 2025, the City implemented GASB Statement No. 101, Compensated Absences, which updates the recognition and measurement guidance for compensated absences. Under GASB 101, the City now recognizes a liability for sick leave that is more likely than not to be used as time off or settled in cash, in addition to vacation and compensatory time. The City restated the beginning balances for the Governmental Activities, Motor Pool Fund, Sewer Utility Fund, and Beach Parking Fund to account for estimated future usage and settlement of sick leave. The implementation of GASB 101 resulted in a prior period adjustment to decrease beginning net position by $460,248 in Governmental Activities and $77,303 in Business-Type Activities.
B. Correction of an Error in Previously Issued Financial Statements During fiscal year 2024-25, the City made a correction to prior year financial statements related to capital assets. The City adjusted capital assets' beginning balance for construction in progress (CIP) related to capital expenditure additions that had been omitted in the prior year. Governmental CIP and total capital assets were understated by $331,275 in fiscal year 2023-24, resulting in an increase to beginning Net Position of $331,275 in Governmental Activities.
C. Major Fund Designation Changes
In the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, the Disaster Accounting Fund met the criteria for major fund reporting and is now reported as a major fund. The General Capital Improvement Fund no longer met the criteria for major fund reporting and is now reported as a nonmajor governmental fund.
D. Prior Period Adjustments & Restatements Reconciliation The table on the following page displays the prior fund balances and net positions at June 30, 2024, and the changes made as a result of both:
Implementation of GASB 101 – Compensated Absences,
Correction of capital assets,
Changes in reporting unit for funds moving from major to nonmajor.

Loss of Vehicle License Fee Revenue
Subsequent to June 30, 2025, San Mateo County adopted a budget to withhold one-third of Vehicle License Fee (VLF) funds from cities within the County. This action is expected to reduce the City's VLF revenue by approximately $771,000 in fiscal year 2025-26. A budget contingency was incorporated into the FY 2025-26 adopted budget to mitigate the impact to operations of this anticipated revenue reduction.

On August 11, 2025, the City Council adopted a new Short-Term Rental Ordinance (Ordinance No. 901-C.S.) where the City amended its Short-Term Rental regulations. The City has experienced a significant reduction in short-term rental permit renewals due to the stricter regulations. This is expected to reduce transient occupancy tax revenues by approximately $730,000 and short-term rental permit and business license tax revenues by approximately $130,000 in fiscal year 2025-26. This projected revenue reduction is slightly above what was incorporated into the FY 2025-26 adopted budget in anticipation of the ordinance changes.

1. BUDGET BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The City prepares a budget for each fiscal year on or before June 30. Budgeted expenditures are enacted into law through the passage of an Appropriation Resolution. This resolution mandates the maximum authorized expenditures for the fiscal year and cannot be exceeded except by subsequent amendments to the budget by the City Council.
From the effective date of the budget, which is adopted and controlled at the department level, the amounts stated therein as proposed expenditures become appropriations to the various City departments. The legal level of control is the department. The City Council may amend the budget by resolution during the fiscal year.
Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the fiscal year for the General fund and Special Revenue and Capital Project Funds. The General Fund budget and Special Revenue and Capital Project Fund budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (US GAAP) and are consistent with the basis used for financial reporting.
Accordingly, actual revenues and expenditures can be compared with related budget amounts without any reconciliation.

Notes:
* California property tax assessments are "acquisition" based, rather than cyclical based. In California, the property tax system is acquisition based, meaning that a real property is assessed upon acquisition or when newly constructed, and assessed at a ratio of 100% of fair market value as of the event date. After the acquisition or new construction basis is determined, year to year increases in assessed value are limited to no more than 2%. In the event of an economic downturn, real property is assessed at the lower of its acquisition basis, increased by the maximum of 2% per year or the fair market value as of January 2, whichever is lower.

We have examined management’s assertion that the accompanying receipts and disbursements are in compliance with the Agreement for Distribution of San Mateo County Measure W Funds for Local Transportation Purposes (Agreement) between the City of Pacifica (City) and the San Mateo County Transportation Authority entered into on October 17, 2019, and that the City complied with the requirements of the Agreement during the year ended June 30, 2025. Management is responsible for its assertion. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assertion based on our examination.
Our examination was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the AICPA.

An examination involves performing procedures to obtain evidence about management's assertion. The nature, timing, and extent of the procedures selected depend on our judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of management's assertion, whether due to fraud or error. We believe that the evidence we obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We are required to be independent and to meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with relevant ethical requirements relating to the engagement.
In our opinion, management’s assertion that the accompanying receipts and disbursements are in compliance with the Agreement between the City and the San Mateo County Transportation Authority entered into on October 17, 2019, and that the City complied with the requirements of the Agreement during the year ended June 30, 2025, is fairly stated, in all material respects.
