PISMO BEACH CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item #9.D
Meeting Date: September 16, 2025
TITLE:
Fiscal Year 2025 Fourth Quarter Financial Status Report RECOMMENDATION:
No action recommended; for information only.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
This report updates the City Council on the City’s financial status for the fiscal year ending on June 30, 2025, based on preliminary actual revenues and expenditures during Fiscal Year (FY) 2025.
The City of Pismo Beach’s financial outlook remains stable, with fund balances projected to be sufficient. The General Fund’s unassigned ending balance for FY 2025 is estimated at $11.82 million, which represents an increase of $4.32 million compared to FY 2024.
This increase is primarily driven by a projected $4.91 million in net operating surplus, offset by several one-time projects that will draw from the fund balance. These projects include $2.26 million for the 2022 Paving project, $445 thousand for the James Way Beautification project, $243 thousand for the Police Department Parking Annex project, and $213 thousand for the Pier and Cypress Dolliver Bridge inspection project.
For the City’s other funds, revenues and expenditures are projected to be on budget and the ending fund balances are in line with the FY 2025 Adopted Budget ending fund balances. In all the other funds, there are sufficient fund balances and projected revenues to cover projected expenditures.
The following sections provide details of the General Fund financial picture, followed by a summary and highlights of the City’s other funds.
I. General Fund Budget Summary
In summary, based on preliminary and projected actual revenues and expenditures during FY 2024, the General Fund is projected to end FY 2025 with an $11.82 million unassigned fund balance. The FY 2025 projected $11.82 million ending unassigned fund balance is $3.25 million greater than the FY 2025 Revised Budget ending unassigned fund balance.
This increase is attributable to $2.46 million fewer projected operating expenditures compared to the Revised Budget, $1.02 million more operating revenues compared to the Revised Budget, offset by $222 thousand fewer one-time revenues compared to the Revised Budget.
The unassigned fund balance is used to pay for future one-time investments included in the FY 2026 and FY 2027 budgets and in the 10-year Capital Improvement Plan.
In addition to the General Fund unassigned fund balance, the General Fund includes the Budget Stabilization Reserve set-aside of $2.00 million.

Table 1: FY 2025 General Fund Budget Summary
II. General Fund Beginning Fund Balance
The General Fund beginning fund balance is comprised of two different components:
The unassigned fund balance, which are funds that are not committed for any specific purpose and could be used for various one-time projects, and The committed or carryforward fund balance, which are funds that are committed for a specific budgeted use.
As illustrated in Table 2, the FY 2025 Adopted Budget General Fund beginning fund balance was projected to be $10.49 million. Based on changes during FY 2024 and carrying forward fund balance to cover previously budgeted but not-yet-spent expenditures, the actual beginning fund balance is $24.64 million. This includes $9.62 million of unassigned fund balance and $15.02 million of carryforward fund balances.

III. General Fund Reserve
The City maintains various General Fund reserves totaling $9.07 million for emergency operations, building depreciation, and risk management. These reserves are crucial in order to avoid disrupting the City’s operations following unanticipated events. The reserves are shown in Table 3, followed by a summary of each reserve.
Table 3: General Fund Reserves
Reserve Amount ($ thousands)
General Fund 25% Reserve $8,323
City Building Reserve 500
Risk Management Reserve 250
Total $9,073
General Fund 25% Reserve
The City has adopted a fiscal policy to fund a General Fund Reserve of 25% of General Fund budgeted annual operating expenditures for FY 2025. The General Fund reserve should be equal to $7.87 million, which is 25% of the total FY 2025 budgeted annual operating expenditures of $31.47 million. Currently, the General Fund Reserve is $8.32 million. This reserve allows the City to maintain its operations for a few months in the event that an emergency or disaster impacts the City’s finances, and can also be used for emerging opportunities.
City Building Reserve
The City Council created a City Building Reserve of $500 thousand, for the maintenance and upkeep of City facilities and buildings, particularly if funds are not available. This amount is equal to five years of annual depreciation on City-owned buildings.
Risk Management Reserve
The City Council established a Risk Management Reserve, contributing $50 thousand each year to the budget for unanticipated risk management costs. This reserve has a balance of $250 thousand, which is the maximum contribution level. ($ thousands)

IV. General Fund Revenues
The FY 2025 Revised Budget projects total revenues of $33.88 million, with actual revenues anticipated to reach $34.69 million, which is $798 thousand greater than budgeted. Compared to FY 2024, the FY 2025 projected actual revenues are expected to increase by $359 thousand, or 1.0%. This year-over-year increase is largely attributed to $885 thousand of transfers in from other funds to support various costs, such as the Public Safety Facility debt service, Christmas decorations, beautification, and concrete and asphalt repairs. Table 4 provides a summary of the General Fund revenue budget alongside the projected actual revenues for FY 2025. This is followed by a detailed analysis of the top three revenue sources for FY 2025, as well as a discussion on significant variances between FY 2025 projected revenues and FY 2024 actual figures.
Table 4: FY 2025 General Fund Revenue Budget and Projected Actuals
Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) revenues are projected to be $193 thousand greater than the budget and $29 thousand, or 0.2%, above the previous year’s revenues. TOT revenues are collected from an 11% tax on rent charged by lodging businesses for stays of 30 consecutive days or less. The projected 0.2% year-over-year increase in TOT revenues reflects stable lodging activity and the first growth year since FY 2022.
Chart 1 further illustrates FY 2025 TOT revenues collected in comparison to FY 2024.

Chart 1. TOT Revenues FY 2025 compared to FY 2024
Analysis from Smith Travel Research Inc., which specializes in providing competitive benchmarking and research services to the hotel industry, reveals that the increase in Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) revenues primarily stems from increased occupancy rates and increased average daily room rates in FY 2025 compared to FY 2024. o Occupancy rates increased by 3.2% year-over-year.
o Average daily rates (ADR) rose by 1.8% overall. While the ADR declined 1.8% in the first half of the year, this was more than offset by a 5.4% increase in the second half compared to the same periods in FY 2024.
Property-related tax revenues are projected to be $365 thousand greater than budget and $316 thousand, or 4.3%, greater than previous year’s property-related tax revenues. There are two sources of property-related tax revenues:
o Property Tax Assessed Value revenues: equivalent to 1% of assessed values. o Property Tax In-Lieu of Vehicle License Fees: 1% tax on the market value of a registered vehicle.
Assessed value cannot increase by more than 2.0% per year per Section 2 of Article XIIIA of the California Constitution. The property tax projected actuals are based on San Luis Obispo County Auditor-Controller’s office certified assessed values for the current year.
Sales and Use Tax revenues are projected to be $95 thousand greater than budget and $235 thousand, or 6.1%, greater than the prior year. Sales and use tax revenues are made up of two sources:
o Bradley-Burns uniform sales and use tax, which is a 1.0% tax on taxable sales within the City.

o Public safety tax, which is a 0.5% tax on taxable sales for specified public safety purposes.
Based on actual sales tax receipts to date and projected forecasts, the Bradley-Burns Uniform Sales and Use Tax is projected to be $99 thousand greater than budget expectations and exceed the prior year’s revenues by $235 thousand. Using data from the City’s sales tax consultant and actual revenues collected so far, Bradley-Burns sales and use tax revenues will total $3.97 million. Chart 2 illustrates sales tax revenues received in FY 2024 and FY 2025 by the month in which the sales tax was collected.
Chart 2. Bradley Burns Sales Tax Revenues FY 2025 compared to FY 2024 The public safety sales tax revenues are budgeted at $126 thousand in FY 2025 and are anticipated to be $122 thousand. This FY 2025 projected amount is $285 less than the FY 2024 public safety sales tax revenues.
In summary, sales and use tax revenues are projected to be $95 thousand greater than budget and $235 thousand, or 6.1%, greater than the prior year. Other Revenues are projected to come in $303 thousand above budget, but $586 thousand, or 16.5%, less than the previous year. This category includes fines and forfeitures, interest earnings, rents and leases, various service fees, and other miscellaneous revenue sources.
Permits are projected to come in $108 thousand less than budget and $185 thousand, or 13.6%, less than the previous year. This category includes building permits, planning fees, engineering permits, and special event permits. Depending on the timing of various projects, permit revenues may fluctuate from year to year. $-

Departmental Revenues are projected to be $66 thousand greater than budget and $617 thousand, or 65.1%, less than the prior year. This is largely due to the City of Pismo Beach no longer providing Dispatch services for the City of Grover Beach, reducing both Departmental revenues by $620 thousand and corresponding personnel expenditures.
Transfers In are projected to be $101 thousand less than budget and $885 thousand, or 632.1%, greater than the prior year. This additional $885 thousand includes the start of several ongoing contributions from other funds to support General Fund expenditures, including:
o $600 thousand transfer in from the Parking Enterprise Fund to support the Public Safety Facility bonds debt service payments,
o $115 thousand transfer in from the Parking Enterprise Fund to support concrete and asphalt repairs of $50 thousand and an ongoing beautification of $65 thousand, including $50 thousand specifically for the pier and pier plaza. o $50 thousand transfer in from the Lodging Business Improvement District Fund for physical improvements (LBID2) for beautification,
o $50 thousand transfer in from the LBID2 for Christmas decorations, and o $70 thousand one-time transfer in from the LBID2 to purchase Christmas decorations.
V. General Fund Expenditures
The FY 2025 Revised Budget expenditures total $47.95 million and projected actual expenditures total $41.42 million. Operating expenditures are projected to be $2.46 million less than the Revised Budget for FY 2025. One-time capital costs are projected to be $12.41 million less than budget largely attributable to the timing of cash flow for the Public Safety Facility project and the Ventana Sports Courts project that are anticipated to continue beyond FY 2025. These savings will be carried forward to next fiscal year and do not contribute to an increase in fund balance. Table 5 provides details of actuals as a percentage of budget by expenditure category.

Description of Cash and Investment Accounts
Negotiable Certificates of Deposit (CDs), US Government Agency Securities (GASs), Corporate Bonds (Corp Bonds), US Treasury Notes (Treasuries), and Mortgage-Backed Securities (MBSs)
General Fund Reserves: The City has three reserves invested in various financial instruments that mature at various periods over the next five years. The total amount invested for these three reserves is $9.06 million, earning 3.06% on average of interest during Fiscal Year (FY) 2025. Specifics of each reserve are provided below:
Council Agenda 9-16-2025 9.E-1
Packet Page 49
o General Fund Reserve: The City adopted a Fiscal Policy that maintains a General Fund Reserve of 25% of budgeted annual operating expenditures. This Reserve should be $7.87 million, which is 25% of the FY 2025 budgeted annual operating expenditures. Currently, $8.31 million is invested in various CDs, GASs, Corp Bonds, and Treasuries earning 3.13% on average per year, which sets the General Fund Reserve balance to be ready to support the FY 2026 budget. o City Building Reserve: The City Council created a City Building Reserve of $500 thousand for the maintenance and upkeep of City facilities and buildings. Currently, this Reserve is invested in various CDs and GASs earning on average 2.38% per year during FY 2025.
o Risk Management Reserve: The City Council established a Risk Management Reserve, contributing $50 thousand each year to a maximum of $250 thousand.
Currently, this Reserve is $250 thousand, which is invested in CDs and GASs earning 2.28% on average per year.
City-Pooled Funds A (for deferred capital projects): Based on the City’s 10-year capital plan and the cash flow needs for the next five years, the City has invested $45.61 million in various CDs, GASs, Corp Bonds, MBSs, and Treasuries that mature at various periods over the next five years and have a 2.86% average interest rate during FY 2025.
Other Financial Instruments
City-Pooled Funds B (for current year expenditures): The City follows the practice of pooling cash for all funds in financial instruments. Interest earned on pooled cash and investments is allocated quarterly to the various funds based on the respective fund’s average quarterly cash balance. As of June 30, 2025, the City-Pooled Funds B are allocated or invested as described below.
$15.07 million in PFM Asset Management California Asset Management Program (CAMP) Pool is a California Joint Powers Authority (JPA) is a State investment pool earning 4.40% annually and is the City’s main savings account where the majority of cash is held for current year expenditures.
$10.23 million in U.S. Bank Checking & Sweep: This account is the City’s primary checking account and with the addition of a new sweep account, the account earned on average 3.91%.
$1.42 million in the U.S. Bank Custodian: This is where interest from various investments is deposited and also where matured securities are temporarily deposited earning 4.17% annually.
$411 thousand in Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF): LAIF is a State investment pool earning 4.40% annually and is the City’s secondary savings account where the majority of cash is held for current year expenditures.
OPEB Trust Account
The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) requires public-sector entities to account for the promise to provide other post-employment benefits (OPEB) over the working life of the employee rather than on a pay-as-you-go basis. The City has an actuarial study performed every two years to determine how much to set aside each year to partially or completely fund the City’s future obligations for retiree health costs.
Council Agenda 9-16-2025 9.E-2
Packet Page 50
The OPEB Trust Account is the California Employers’ Retiree Benefit Trust (CERBT) Fund that was set up for the purpose of receiving employer contributions to prefund retiree health and OPEB costs for retirees and their beneficiaries. This trust fund helps finance future costs in large part from the investment earnings provided by CalPERS, rather than the City’s restricted investment earnings. The projected earnings are 6.75% per year and fluctuate from quarter to quarter. Until FY 2024, the City’s OPEB Trust Account had an unfunded liability, which the City contributed the Actuarial Determined Contribution amount each year to reduce the liability. As of the end of FY 2024, the Account is currently over-funded and the City is seeking reimbursement for current OPEB costs in FY 2025 and will not be contributing any amount to the Account this year. Contributions to the OPEB Trust Account are an asset for the City’s future retiree health costs instead of a significant liability on the City’s balance sheet.
Portfolio Allocation
Per California Government Code 53600 et seq., and the City's Investment Policy, the City may invest up to a maximum percentage of the entire portfolio of funds in authorized financial instruments. Table 1 and Chart 1 show a summary of the authorized financial instruments, the maximum percentage limits, the book value as of June 30, 2025 of the City’s funds, and the percentage of the total City’s pooled funds that are invested in each financial instrument.

Investment Value
Book Value: The book value represents the initial outlay for an investment and is the amount carried on a balance sheet. In the past quarter ending June 30, 2025, the City’s total book value of cash and investments was $117.77 million. This is $756 thousand greater than the last quarter’s ending balance, largely adding additional securities to Cit Pooled Funds – A, offset by spending down bond proceeds for the 2024 Public Safety Facility Lease Revenue Bonds. In general, there are a number of factors that impact changes in cash and investment balances from quarter to quarter. These changes may include receiving periodic payments (e.g., property taxes are received in December and April), large payments on debt service or capital projects, seasonal revenues and expenditures, and other factors affecting cash flow.

Future Outlook
Recent data indicates that economic activity moderated in the first half of the year. The unemployment rate has remained at historically low levels, reflecting a solid labor market.
Inflation remains slightly above the Federal Open Market Committee’s (FOMC) long-term target.
The FOMC remains committed to achieving maximum employment and maintaining inflation at two percent over the long run. The Committee remains vigilant to potential risks on both sides of its dual mandate.
To support its policy goals, the Committee has decided to maintain the target range for the federal funds rate at 4.25% to 4.50%. Future policy decisions will be guided by incoming economic data and their implications for the broader economy.
Market interest rates are still higher than the City’s overall portfolio, although declining especially in the longer-term securities. In response, the City Treasurer has rebalanced the portfolio to allocate more idle cash into longer-term investments to capitalize on the currently higher rates through FY 2030, ensuring interest earnings will remain strong.

PISMO BEACH CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item #9.G
Meeting Date: September 16, 2025
TITLE:
Contract Amendment #1 with ENGEO Incorporated for the Cliff Avenue and Ocean Boulevard Storm Drain Repair Project
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute Amendment #1 to the existing Professional Services Agreement with ENGEO Incorporated for design of the Cliff Avenue and Ocean Boulevard Storm Drain Repair project in the amount of $56,500 and appropriating related budget adjustments in Fiscal Year 2026.
DISCUSSION:
On May 2, 2023, the City Council awarded a contract to ENGEO Incorporated (ENGEO) for professional engineering services for the Cliff Avenue and Ocean Boulevard (Cliff/Ocean) Storm Drain Repair project. The project was originally included as one of five components of the Ocean Boulevard Improvements Project; however, due to extensive environmental and right-of-way requirements, it was separated from the other portions of that project.
During the design process, several permitting issues arose requiring additional work to complete the design. The original outfall structure encroached on the beach, which raised permitting concerns with the California Coastal Commission. To avoid potential issues, the plans were modified so that the outfall now terminates at the bluff face. This adjustment removed the need for a Coastal Development Permit while maintaining the project’s stormwater and bluff stabilization objectives.
The City’s plan check process also generated additional comments requiring revisions to the design. These included updates to reflect the latest building code cycle, verification of geotechnical and coastal hazard analyses, and revisions to structural details. ENGEO is working to complete the final design of the Cliff/Ocean Storm Drain Repair Project and staff anticipate advertising for construction bids in the coming weeks.
ENGEO has provided a proposal to address the required design modifications. The proposed Amendment #1 (Attachment 2) includes budget for one additional round of plan check to address remaining comments, and it also provides for bid support services including responses to Requests for Information and preparation of addenda.
Conclusion and Recommendation
Staff recommends the Council adopt a resolution (Attachment 1) authorizing the City Manager to execute Amendment #1 to the existing Professional Services Agreement with ENGEO Incorporated for design of the Cliff Ave. and Ocean Blvd. Storm Drain Repair project in the amount of $56,500 and appropriating related budget adjustments in Fiscal Year 2026.
Council Agenda 9-16-2025 9.G-1
Packet Page 63
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact of adopting the attached resolution is an additional $56,500. There is $48,833 in the FY 2026 Capital Projects Fund Cliff Ave and Ocean Blvd Storm Drain Repair project account to support the proposed Amendment #1, as illustrated in Table 1.
Table 1: Cliff Ave and Ocean Blvd Storm Drain Repair Project Description FY 2026 Amount
Project Budget $48,833
Project Cost 56,500
Budget Shortfall $(7,667)
Staff recommends that the Council appropriate an additional $7,667 in professional services account expenditures and the full $56,500 in Federal Highway Administration grant revenues in this project for FY 2026.
Federal Grant
This project is federally funded through the Federal Emergency Relief (ER) program with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Caltrans Local Assistance (Caltrans LA). To date the City has been granted a total of $393,453 in ER funding for professional engineering services for the Cliff/Ocean project of which 88.53% (or $348,324) would be reimbursed by FHWA/Caltrans LA and 11.47% (or $45,129) would be supported by City match. Staff is working with Caltrans LA to request additional funding to cover all costs associated with the design phase of the project, including the proposed Amendment #1.

PISMO BEACH CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item #9.H
Meeting Date: September 16, 2025
TITLE:
Qualified Consultants List for On-Call Engineering Services RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution approving the list of qualified consultants for on-call engineering services.
DISCUSSION:
The Public Works Department utilizes professional consulting firms to provide licensed technical expertise in a variety of disciplines that support the implementation of the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) as well as other non-CIP projects and initiatives.
These services are necessary to supplement City staff and ensure timely, cost-effective project delivery while maintaining efficient staffing levels, particularly for work that requires specialized skills or additional capacity. The use of pre-qualified on-call consultant services is the standard for agencies that prioritize both efficient staffing levels and productivity.
The City publicly solicited proposals on July 10, 2025, for on-call consulting services.
Thirteen consultants submitted proposals for various disciplines. Submittals were evaluated based on qualifications, relevant experience, and demonstrated ability to perform the services requested. The majority of the consultants who responded were deemed to be qualified. Some were qualified in one or two areas but not in all areas.
The professional services covered under this list include:
Inspection services
Project management and construction management
Surveying and mapping
Plan checking
Stormwater quality program support
Traffic/transportation and engineering design services This new list will serve as the basis for assigning work for CIP and other development review projects requiring technical expertise in the areas listed above. The list of recommended firms is included as Attachment 1.A to this report.
Agreements will be executed on an as-needed basis with individual scopes of work issued for each identified work requirement (project). These scopes of work will be issued and managed by the Project Manager assigned to the project. Once a new requirement is identified, consultants will be provided the scope of work requirement on which to provide a proposal, if they so choose. The consultants will then submit their respective proposals, which will include a description of the scope of work to be performed, the method by which the consultant plans on completing the work, and a cost and schedule for completion.
Council Agenda 9-16-2025 9.H-1
Packet Page 71
Once the City has received all proposals, they will review each and make a selection of the firm based on factors that include price, experience, methods, and schedule.
While the on-call consultant list provides flexibility and efficiency for a wide range of projects, it is not intended for large or complex efforts such as the upcoming drainage and paving project or water/wastewater utility projects. For projects of that scale and complexity, the City will issue a separate Request for Proposals to select a dedicated team tailored specifically to the project’s needs. It should also be noted that the use of an approved on-call list of consultants does not in any way circumvent the City’s overall purchasing policies or contracting practices.
Conclusion and Recommendation
Staff recommends the Council adopt a resolution (Attachment 1) approving the list of qualified consultants (Attachment 1.A) for on-call engineering services.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact related to this report. The approval of the lists themselves does not obligate the City to enter into any agreement with any firm on the list. Any agreement executed will be funded by the Engineering professional services budget or the specific project budget.

PISMO BEACH CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item #9.I
Meeting Date: September 16, 2025
TITLE:
Appointment of Pismo Beach Representative to SLOCOG CTAC RECOMMENDATION:
Confirm the appointment of Tracy Steele as Pismo Beach's representative to the San Luis Obispo Council of Governments Citizens Transportation Advisory Committee (CTAC).
DISCUSSION:
The Citizens Transportation Advisory Committee (CTAC) is an advisory committee administered by the San Luis Obispo Council of Governments (SLOCOG) that makes recommendations to the SLOCOG Board on various transportation planning and funding issues.1 CTAC membership comprises an appointment from each supervisorial district, each incorporated city in the county, and three “at large” appointments. In June 2025, the City's representative submitted their resignation, and SLOCOG has requested that the City make a new appointment.
On June 17, 2025, the City Council consented to Mayor Waage and Mayor Pro Tem Reiss acting as a subcommittee to interview applicants for the CTAC position and select a recommended appointee. The subcommittee interviewed two applicants, and recommends Pismo Beach resident Tracy Steele for the position (application form provided as Attachment 1).
Alternatives
The City Council may appoint any other Pismo Beach resident to serve on the CTAC. In the event the Council wishes to make an alternate appointment, City staff would contact the individual to confirm their interest in serving, and verify their residency. Due to the relative scarcity of applicants, however, staff recommends that the Council affirm the subcommittee’s recommendation.
Conclusion and Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council confirm the subcommittee's recommendation and appoint Tracy Steele as Pismo Beach's representative to the San Luis Obispo Council of Governments Citizens Transportation Advisory Committee (CTAC). This appointment carries no term end date.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with this appointment. Pismo Beach's appointee to the CTAC will require no further City staff time or other fiscal support. 1 More information is available online at: https://www.slocog.org/meetings-agendas/advisory/ctac Council Agenda 9-16-2025 9.I-1

PISMO BEACH CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item #12.A
Meeting Date: September 16, 2025
TITLE:
Shell Beach Road Shared Use Path Extension Phase 2 Update RECOMMENDATION:
No action recommended; for information only.
DISCUSSION:
The Shell Beach Road Streetscape project completed in 2021 was Phase 1 of a citywide multi-use path identified in the City’s Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan, Complete Street Plan, and Circulation Element. The current Shell Beach Road Shared Use Path Phase 2 project includes the segment of Shell Beach Road from the Avila Beach Drive roundabout to Spyglass Drive (vicinity map provided as Attachment 1) and will construct a pedestrian and bicycle shared use path along the ocean side of Shell Beach Road.
On November 19, 2024, the City Council awarded a contract to Wallace Group (Wallace) for engineering design services for the Shell Beach Road Shared Use Path Extension Phase 2 Project. Design of the project is funded through a combination of Trade Corridor Enhancement Program (TCEP) and Surface Transportation Block Grant Program funds totaling $1,008,000. Future construction of the project is funded as part of the overall $65 million TCEP funding for the Five Cities Multimodal Transportation Network Enhancement Project, which also includes the US 101 southbound managed lane project and a park and ride lot on Price Street south of Mattie Road.
Wallace has prepared 30% design plans and is working to finalize a 30% estimate of probable cost. Final concept plans have been developed (Attachment 2) and include renderings of the path at five locations along the project corridor as well as the landscaping plant palette selected for the project.
Conclusion and Recommendation
Staff recommends the City Council receive this update and provide any comments and feedback to staff.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with this report.

PISMO BEACH CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item #12.B
Meeting Date: September 16, 2025
TITLE:
Downtown Sidewalk Condition Assessment
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive a presentation about the Downtown Sidewalk Condition Assessment and provide direction to staff.
DISCUSSION:
Trip-and-fall claims are the most common type of claims that the City receives. While these claims are not the most expensive claims, in the aggregate, they can become very expensive. Money spent preventing trip and fall claims has the potential for a high return on infrastructure investment because the cost of repairing a sidewalk is typically less than the cost to defend each trip and fall claim.
In order to mitigate future trip-and-fall claims, City staff contacted the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority (CJPIA). CJPIA has a sidewalk maintenance program with an associated master services agreement with Precision Concrete Cutting (PCC) to provide inspection, mapping, planning, and rehabilitation work for sidewalks. Staff established the assessment area shown as Figure 1.
Figure 1. Assessment Area
This assessment area was selected because it represents the majority of the trip-and-fall locations in the city. The downtown area has the most visitors to the city and the highest concentration of commercial businesses. California Streets and Highways code provides Council Agenda 9-16-2025 12.B-1
Packet Page 99
that residential property owners responsible for the sidewalks adjacent to their properties, but for commercial areas, the City generally has responsibility. While there are areas with in the downtown with both residential and commercial areas, it is generally considered to be a commercial zone.
Additionally, until the City takes over ownership of, and maintenance responsibility for, Dolliver Street/Highway 1, staff would recommend that area be excluded from improvements so as to not complicate any acquisition or liability matters.
Conclusion and Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council receive a presentation about the Downtown Sidewalk Assessment and provide direction to staff on making repairs consistent with the Assessment recommendations. If there is interest, staff would also seek opportunities, upon City Council concurrence, to address crosswalk enhancements that would seek to make similar improvements for the benefit of all users in the area, including those around the paid parking zones.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact related to this report. Depending on the direction from the City Council, staff will prepare cost estimates for the City Council’s consideration.

PISMO BEACH CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item #12.C
Meeting Date: September 16, 2025
TITLE:
Business Licensing Overview
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive an overview of the City’s business licensing ordinance, Pismo Beach Municipal Code Chapter 5.04.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Pismo Beach engaged HdL Companies (HdL) to audit the City’s business licenses to ensure that businesses are in compliance with Municipal Code Chapter 5.04, which requires all businesses operating within City limits to obtain a business license from the City. HdL was selected to perform this work because it has extensive expertise in business license administration and discovery services.
As part of the audit, HdL identified various businesses that have been operating in the city without a required business license. Historically the City did not have sufficient staffing to conduct business license auditing in-house. This audit and its outreach to non- compliant businesses was intended by the City to ensure that the requirements of the Municipal Code are applied in a fair and equitable manner and to maintain consistency of compliance across all businesses.
The purpose of this staff report and presentation is to provide an overview of the business license ordinance and compliance with the ordinance.
History of Business Licenses
The City adopted its first business license ordinance (Ordinance O-001) on May 20, 1946, establishing a system of license requirements and fees. Over the following decades, amendments were made to include new rates and business types. The most significant update occurred on March 9, 1987, when the City Council adopted Ordinance O-1987- 10, creating the current gross receipts–based payment structure codified in Chapter 5.04 of the Municipal Code. Since that time, only minor updates have been made, resulting in rates that remain among the lowest in San Luis Obispo County. The Municipal Code specifies flat rates for certain types of businesses that are specifically listed in the Code as having flat rates. Similarly, the Municipal Code specifies a per-unit rate for residential rentals. However, for businesses that are not specifically subject to a flat or per-unit rate, the rate is based on the gross receipts of the business.
Purposes of Business Licenses
Business licenses provide numerous purposes to benefit the City, business owners, consumers, and the community at large, including:
Provide regulatory oversight, ensuring compliance with zoning, building, fire, and health/safety codes.
Council Agenda 9-16-2025 12.C-1
Packet Page 101
Supply accurate information for public safety and emergency response, enabling first responders to know what businesses are operating and where. Offer consumer protection, assuring the public that businesses meet minimum City standards and providing accountability for fraudulent or unsafe practices. Promote equity among businesses, ensuring that all businesses, including home- based and rental property businesses, contribute fairly to services they use. Facilitate community engagement, providing the City with up-to-date contact information for outreach regarding policy changes, emergencies, or economic development.
Revenues from business licenses support the City’s General Fund, which provides essential services including police and fire protection, street and sidewalk maintenance, public facilities, and restrooms.
During the course of the business license audit, a subset of business operators representing commercial property rentals questioned why their business licensing payments were based on rental income.
Why Gross Receipts for Commercial Rentals?
It is generally considered most equitable that larger businesses pay a larger amount than smaller businesses of a similar type. A flat amount per business often does not achieve this goal because a very large business will pay the same amount as a much smaller business. Gross receipts-based rates help ensure this sort of equity. Otherwise, a small landlord would pay the same amount as a landlord of a huge space that uses more services and requires more regulation. , Thus, the use of gross receipts as a measure of business size helps prevent small business from subsidizing large business operators.
Business License Enforcement
The City is conducting a business license audit to ensure that all businesses are complying with the City’s business license ordinance. The City contracts with HdL for administration and auditing services related to business licenses, consistent with common practice among California municipalities. The original agreement was authorized by the City Manager and Administrative Services Director under their contracting authority. HdL administers business licenses for the City as well as performing discovery services to identify businesses that are currently operating in the City without a license. HdL began this process in February of 2025. When HdL began the process, HdL noticed that the a low amount of their property rentals located in the city were licensed, a common issue with business licensing in many cities.
Once HdL identified this issue, HdL sent notices to these property owners based on a couple of different data points. The first is that the property tax records from the county reflected that these businesses owned property in the city and the second was that there appeared to be a commercial tenant at the location via Google searches and miscellaneous other records including business license records.
Council Agenda 9-16-2025 12.C-2
Packet Page 102
For reference, the City has 14 commercial property building owners that are registered.
However, the City has much more commercial rental activity that is part of normal business activity such as: barber shops renting to barbers, hotels renting out conference room space or other event space, grocery stores leasing out spaces to coin operated machines and other companies such as Starbucks. HdL believes there are potentially 80 commercial property building owners that may be unlicensed.
Confidentiality of Business License Data
All financial information submitted for business license applications, including gross receipts, is treated as confidential taxpayer data and is not shared publicly. HdL’s outreach includes clear contact information for questions by phone or email, and businesses are encouraged to work directly with City staff or HdL to clarify requirements.
HdL communication to businesses that currently do not have a business license HdL has reached out to hundreds of businesses that do not have a business license, including some commercial property owners. Through HdL’s research through publicly available data, HdL identified potential businesses operating without a license. This communication began in 2025 with a letter (see attached sample letter Attachment 1) and a business license application (Attachment 2), followed by two additional letters. The letters provided contact information for any questions via email or phone number. The letter asked for the business to complete the business license application and submit it, or present a valid business license, or explanation why the business does not qualify for a business license. The application for gross receipts includes a section to fill out gross receipts for the past 3 years, if applicable, and the resulting required payments to the City for all three years.
While the letters sent as a part of the audit are routine in nature, staff acknowledges that they may not meet the standards that we have within our community. Upon notification about the communication method, staff notified the vendor and ensured that moving forward all communications would need to be approved by the City, which has now been instituted.
Business Licenses Enforcement in Other Cities
Staff has reviewed business license requirements in places elsewhere in San Luis Obispo County. While methodologies vary, most cities impose either a gross receipts-based rate or a hybrid flat rate. The City’s Administrative Services Department Finance Division is staffed to support ongoing operations for collection of all revenues, accounts payable, payroll, utility billing, budget development and administration, purchasing policy administration, financial reporting, investments, and debt management. The small team hires external auditors for various aspects of financial operations, including City-wide annual financial audits and multi-year transient occupancy tax audits.
Commercial landlords are conducting a business activity in the city, and the point of a business licensing is to require a license and payment to the City by each business operating in the City. HdL has indicated that of the 175 local government entities in California that HdL provides business license services, 170 of those local governments Council Agenda 9-16-2025 12.C-3
Packet Page 103
require a payment by a business that engages in the rental of commercial property in the jurisdiction.
Compared to peer cities, Pismo Beach’s rates remain low due to the 1987 structure as illustrated in Table 1.

Adjustments to Business License Ordinance
Under Propositions 218 and 26, changes to the ordinance(other than administrative, implementing policies or practices, and accounting measures) likely would require voter approval.
Communication between Commercial Property Owners and the City The City received multiple emails from commercial property owners all copied in the same email to express their concerns with having to obtain a business license. Although the group emails requested communication with the City Council, elected officials are prohibited by state law (the Brown Act, Government Code Section 54950 et seq.) from engaging in what is called a serial meeting, when multiple elected officials communicate about a topic within their body’s decision-making purview, outside of a noticed City Council meeting, which email chains like this one can quickly become, even inadvertently.
City staff responded with this information and have provided information to address any questions.
In response to the group’s concerns, the City offered the following changes (Attachment 3):
1. Paused enforcement of commercial property owner business license requirement.
2. One license for multiple units: If a commercial property owner owns multiple commercial rental properties or units in Pismo Beach, they now only need one business license covering all related rental operations, as long as all units are included in gross receipts reporting.
3. No retroactive penalties: The City will waive all past penalties and interest as long as commercial property owners obtain their license by October 1, 2025.
4. Extended compliance deadline: The deadline to obtain a business license is extended to October 1, 2025.
Council Agenda 9-16-2025 12.C-6
Packet Page 106
Conclusion and Recommendation
The City’s approach to auditing and enforcing business licenses, including for commercial property rentals, is consistent with statewide practices, is based on a long-standing ordinance adopted in 1987, and is essential for ensuring fairness among businesses.
Gross receipts-based taxation is the standard method across California cities, reflecting the scale of business activity and aligning the contributions of property owners with the services they receive.
Staff recommends that Council accept a presentation on the City’s business license ordinance and practices.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This is an informational presentation only. No fiscal action is requested at this time.
