SALES TAX UPDATE
CITY OF PLACENTIA
3Q 2024 (JULY - SEPTEMBER)
Placentia’s receipts from July through
September were 6.7% below the third
sales period in 2023. Excluding reporting
aberrations, actual sales were down
1.9%.
Consumers continue to be cautious in
spending on non-essential products and
projects. The Feds have now begun to
slowly reduce the fed rate.
Business-industry was an active sector
with significant movement upward, as
well as new outlets, pushing it up 14.2%.
Building-construction, which has been
down statewide, benefited from new
outlets and a stronger outlook on home
improvements.
Fuel-service stations were down 19.3%,
which was more than the statewide
reduction of 14.0%, as fuel and oil
pricing dropped during the quarter.
Autos-transportation was impacted
by closures and a continuing softness
in auto sales. Restaurants-hotels were
negatively affected by the higher menu
pricing due to labor and food costs.
Measure U generated 112.8% of
the Bradley-Burns tax, with general
consumer goods and autos contributing
the most to the allocations.
Net of aberrations, taxable sales for all of
Orange County declined 2.3% over the
comparable time period; the Southern
California region was down 2.3%.

STATEWIDE RESULTS
California’s local one cent sales and use tax
receipts during the months of July through
September were 2.3% lower than the
same quarter one year ago after adjusting
for accounting anomalies. The calendar
year third quarter traditionally is noted for
pleasant weather and statewide tourism;
however, taxes fell when compared to a
year ago. As such, it also means a weak
start of the 2024-25 fiscal year for many
California agencies.
Once again, autos-transportation receipts
took a hit and declined 4.8%. This period
marks the seventh consecutive quarter of
downturn for the sector. While used autos
returns and leasing activity have improved,
revenues from new car sales struggled due
to sustained high interest rates, tightened
credit standards, and increased cost of
auto insurance. As such, inventories for
many dealers remain elevated, applying
downward pressure on prices and growth
into 2025.
The summer season is usually an
advantageous time for home repairs and
construction work, however, this industry
is also struggling with high consumer
interest rates and limited access to equity
for homeowners. New projects remain
sidelined as developers await more
favorable investment conditions.
Brick-and-mortar general consumer
retailers pulled back 3.8% - worsened by
lower gas prices. Consumers appear more
interested in lower priced/discounted items
vs higher priced/luxury goods, forcing
merchants to again consider inventory
needs. Additionally, competition from
online merchants is as fierce as ever, as
shoppers look for greater value. With
holiday shopping around the corner, local
store expectations remain soft.
Fuel generating taxpayers had a rough
quarter; a combination of consumption
declines and falling fuel prices thrust
comparisons down by 13%. Further
contraction of national drug store locations
coupled with the steady fall from cannabis
merchants dating back to 2021, caused a
decrease of 2.8% in the food-drugs category.
Expect similar percentage declines for the
upcoming end of 2024 quarter.
Although statewide tourism appears to
have improved over 2023, revenue from
restaurants experienced only a modest gain
of 0.7%, which included a dramatic drop
from fine dining establishments – consistent
with spending trends in other sectors. State
mandated minimum wage requirements
remained a challenge, with higher menu
prices reducing patron visits.
These sluggish results solidify 2024 as a
down year. Recent reductions to the Fed
Funds Rate aren’t considered to help until
later in 2025. Agencies should expect
fiscal year 2024-25 sales taxes to stay flat
or decline slightly as sluggish economic
conditions leave consumers cautious in their
spending patterns, especially for big ticket
items and discretionary products.

This report includes requested departmental budget adjustments through the second quarter of fiscal year 2024-25, covering the period through December 2024.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council take the following action:
1. Approve the Mid-Year Budget Report and adopt Resolution No. R-2025-06, amending the City’s FY 2024-25 Budget, Position Allocation Plan and Salary Schedule.
AGENDA REPORT

City Council Agenda
February 18, 2025
STRATEGIC PLAN STATEMENT:
This item is consistent with the City Council approved 5-Year Strategic Goal to Ensure Long-Term Fiscal Sustainability, under Objective #1.6 Update the existing 10-Year Financial Plan.
DISCUSSION:
At the June 4, 2024 City Council meeting, the City Council approved the FY 2024-25 budget which included $99.2 million in expenditures supported by $95.3 million in revenues, with the difference supported by the use of one-time monies in various funds to address capital improvement projects.
The City conducts a thorough mid-year analysis of its budget after completion of the first two quarters and makes adjustments as needed to both the revenues and the expenditures in order to ensure sufficient funding through June 30th.
General Fund: The General Fund FY 2024-25 Amended Budget, inclusive of proposed mid-year adjustments includes total revenues of $58.7 million and expenditures of $63.4 million. The proposed budget adjustments in the FY 2024-25 Mid-Year Budget Report include a net increase to revenues of approximately $1,166,000 and a net increase in expenditures of approximately $1,879,000.
General Fund Revenue
Changes to revenue are based on year-end projections based on current year activity. While there are minor adjustments in several revenue line items, the largest changes are occurring to property, sales and utility users' taxes (UUT) as well as charges for service.
Property tax – The city receives the majority of its property tax revenue over 3-4 months each fiscal year clustered around the property tax due dates of December 10th and April 10th. As a result, the City does not receive its first payments until November, with the bulk of the first installment payments received at the end of December, making it difficult to compare revenue received to the budget until the mid-year budget review.
Properties are assessed every January 1, with payments based on that assessment due the following December and subsequent April creating a significant lag between the assessment of the property and the payment of the property tax. If a property changes ownership, or is reassessed after January 1, the City will not receive the increased property tax for up to 18 months making it difficult to predict significant increases. For the tax year 2024-25, the City’s overall assessed value increased by 5.7%, compared to 5.4% for the County and was bolstered by a few significant property reassessments due to construction improvements as well as changes in ownership.
The City is anticipating the loss of approximately $38,000-$50,000 annually in property tax due to the sale of the Placentia Linda Hospital to UC Irvine Health in 2024 as the UC Regents who own UC Irvine Health are exempt from paying property taxes in the State of 103

California.
Based on property tax received year-to-date, staff is projecting no change to the FY 2024-25 budget across all property tax categories.
Sales Tax- Thru January, receipts for sales tax have been approximately 4.7% lower in FY 2024-25 compared to the prior fiscal year, with the most recent quarter's (July-September 2024) information showing gross receipts down 1.9% compared to the same quarter in 2023. In anticipation of this decrease, the City budgeted lower sales tax in FY 2024-25 than the prior fiscal year, however we are currently projecting to receive $75,000 less than the budgeted amount by June 30, 2025. As new businesses have taken over locations that shuttered in 2024, the City should have more information in the next quarter regarding the impact of those businesses on the City's sales tax base.
Working with our sales tax consultant, HdL, some of the reasons behind the decreases include lower fuel prices, the impact of prolonged higher interest rates on purchases of new automobiles, a decrease in nonresidential construction, and the change in consumer behavior as people eat out less often due to higher menu prices and service charges. More information regarding sales tax is included in the HdL quarterly sales tax update and economic forecast attached to this staff report.
Utility Users’ Tax (UUT) revenues are included in the “Other taxes” category and are trending approximately $300,000 higher than budgeted, for a total projected revenue of $3,050,000 for the current fiscal year.
Franchise Tax Revenues are projected to increase by $200,000 due to increased refuse fees.

Permits & Licenses revenue is increasing due to year-to-date activity for heat/air conditioning permits ($100,000), electrical permits ($35,000), plumbing permits ($11,550), administrative citations ($15,000) and fire inspections ($100,000).
Charges for Services adjustments include a reimbursement of $216,000 from CalOES for strike teams deployed by our Fire and Life Safety Department. This revenue is offset by a corresponding increase of the same amount for overtime expenses.

Notable General Fund expenditure budget adjustment requests include the following:
Legislative- Projected increases of $100,000 in Legal Services due to a combination of rate increases per the City Attorney contract, outside legal services needed to assist in finalizing a bargaining agreement, as well as various special projects administered by the City Attorney’s office.
City Administrator’s office- Unforeseen expenses in the City Administrator’s office include the costs associated with the separation agreement with the City’s former City Administrator and the subsequent hiring of an Interim City Administrator.
Administrative Services- Proposed increases include $30,500 in professional services in the Information Technology (IT) division. This assistance is necessary as in-house IT staff do not have the capacity to service all the after-hours calls, network and system engineering that is required for current projects.
Development Services- Due to unsuccessful recruitments and staff turnover, the City has continued to need to rely on outside contractors for inspection services. Staff is requesting $158,000 for contract inspection and plan-check services, which is offset by a corresponding increase in revenues for permits.
106
City Council Agenda
February 18, 2025
Police- The Police department is requesting an increase of $60,000 in overtime expenses relating to a homicide investigation that will require the entire detective unit to work overtime. In addition, the department in requesting $25,000 in uniform expenses due to the need to purchase a higher-than-normal number of uniforms for department personnel including cadets, volunteers and Police Officer Trainees in the academy.
Fire & Life Safety- The Fire & Life Safety department’s budget is increasing to reflect an increase in overtime equal to the reimbursement from CalOES of $216,000 for their strike team response(s). An additional $50,000 is requested for needed repairs to the ladder truck.
Public Works- The Public Works department is requesting adjustment to their operating budget to cover unforeseen expenses at the City Hall including:
o $145,000 for both phase 1 and phase 2 repairs to the City Hall fire and security alarm system. An additional $50,545 is requested to cover the cost of fire watch services between the months of October through December 2024.
o $80,000 in part-time salaries to cover increased costs incurred due to several employees being out on long-term leaves of absence.
General Government- The General Government department covers expenses that support all citywide departments such as insurance, postage and electricity and are often outside the City’s control. After reviewing these accounts, the following adjustments are requested for the remainder of the fiscal year.
o Electricity- $100,000
o Water - $200,000
o Leave Accrual Payouts (upcoming retirements) - $310,500
Staffing Changes
The Community Services department is recommending a minor reorganization to more appropriately structure their department to address current gaps and enhance organizational efficiency. Proposed adjustments are projected to cost $5,800 annually and include:
Elimination of the Deputy Director of Community Services position and subsequent creation of two Community Services Supervisors. The current structure places significant gaps in oversight and succession planning. Replacing the Deputy Director position with two supervisors will create focused leadership for core operations and address workload distribution, ensuring direct supervision across key functions.
Reclassification of a Management Analyst to a Community Services Supervisor.
The Management Analyst position was created in FY22/23 with fifty percent (50%) funded by the North Service Planning Area (NSPA) to support the City's efforts to 107
City Council Agenda
February 18, 2025
address homelessness. Reclassifying this position is anticipated to focus oversight on programs serving specialty populations such as the Navigation Center, Neighborhood Services Center and Senior Center and allow site coordinators to dedicate more effort to program development and execution. There is no fiscal impact resulting from this action as the pay grade is the same for both positions, and the position would still serve the NSPA fifty percent (50%) of their time.
In FY 2024-25 the Development Services Department transitioned several previously contracted positions in-house. The City has had repeated unsuccessful recruitments for the position of Plans Examiner and turnover in the Building Inspector position while simultaneously experiencing a sustained increase in the need for contracted inspection services.
Staff is proposing the following adjustment to better serve the needs of the department and the community:
Reclassify the Plans Examiner position to a new classification, Building Supervisor. The pay grades for the two positions are the same so there is no fiscal impact to this action.
These proposed staff modifications are included in the exhibits to the attached resolution.
Special Revenue Funds
The Special Revenue Funds FY 2024-25 Amended Budget includes revenues of $51.2 million and expenditures of $57.7 million, with the difference being the use of existing fund balance in respective funds for capital projects. The proposed budget adjustments in FY 2024-25 Mid-Year Budget Report include an increase in revenues of $2,173,162 for the following areas:
$239,000 increase in North Orange County public safety grant.
$29,000 increase to gas tax to reflect updated projections.
$174,400 in Opioids Settlement Fund to reflect receipts year to date.
$1,563,400 in various development impact fee funds to reflect receipts year to date.
Notable expenditure adjustments include:
$239,000 in public safety salaries equal to the revenue received from the North Orange County public safety grant.
Transfers of $3,367,020 in bond proceeds from the Public Financing Authority to the General fund for reimbursement for public safety building construction costs.
$120,000 in the Landscape Maintenance District for water based on usage year to date.
$150,000 in the General Plan Update Fund for General Plan and code amendments related to housing element compliance and/or compliance with other state laws. 108
City Council Agenda
February 18, 2025
Appropriation of $129,200 from existing Measure M fund balance for the Senior Mobility Program to support transportation through June 30, 2025.
Internal Service Funds: The Internal Service Fund FY 2024-25 Amended budget includes revenues of $4.3 million and expenditures of $3.8 million. Notable adjustments include:
Increase of $115,000 for property insurance due to the addition of the public safety building as well as Wagner, Santa Fe and La Placita park which were previously omitted from the City's property schedule.
Increase revenues by $125,086 to reflect a refund from our insurance carrier. These funds were netted against the amount requested to pay current fiscal year premiums; this action is administrative cleanup to recognize revenues in the general ledger.
Section 115 Trust
The City has taken a proactive approach to its pension liability funding strategy, issuing lease revenue bonds in 2020 to address the City's unfunded actuarial liability (UAL) with CalPERS, establishing a Section 115 Trust to mitigate against CalPERS investment losses and pre-fund Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) obligations.
The FY24/25 budget included the use of $750,000, or 75% of the annual cost, from the trust to fund retiree health benefits, as well as $447,000 to fund the annual UAL payment to CalPERS.
The balances of the Section 115 trust through December 31, 2024 are:
OPEB- $1,945,945 (2 months of 9 months budgeted from Section 115 trust for retiree health payments ($114,280) made this fiscal year).
Pension Stabilization- $1,245,781 (UAL Payment of $447,154 already made this fiscal year).
Fiscal Year 2025-26 Budget
The City is currently in the beginning stages of developing it's FY 2025-26 budget, however staff has already identified fiscal challenges including:
Modest revenue increases in property and sales tax, including Measure U.
Increases in personnel costs both directly and indirectly related to memorandums of understanding with various labor groups, as well as the ongoing classification and compensation study which is anticipated to be finalized in Spring, 2025.
An increase in the City's Unfunded Actuarial Liability (UAL) with CalPERS due to their lower-than-expected rates of return in recent years from $447,000 to $918,000. This liability 109
City Council Agenda
February 18, 2025
is in addition to the City's debt service obligation created with the issuance of bonds to pay off the CalPERS UAL in 2020.
Increased cost of our Advanced Life Support (ALS) contract.
Anticipated increases in insurance premiums resulting from the recent fires in Los Angeles.
Per Policy 460, a decrease in contribution to infrastructure from Measure U from 50% to 40%, with a corresponding increase in reserve contribution from 10% to 20%.
Staff will return to the City Council in May to present the Proposed FY 2025-26 Annual Budget and Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).
