City of Pleasant Hill Biennial Budget Fiscal Year 24/25 & Fiscal Year 25/26 iii
June 17, 2024
Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers:
I submit to you and the residents of Pleasant Hill the Fiscal Years 2024/2025 – 2025/2026 (FY 24/25 – FY 25/26) Biennial Budget. The City has remained financially stable through the pandemic and the General Fund has grown during that period of time partly due to improved sales tax revenue and salary savings from vacant positions with retirements of long tenured staff. While the City stayed financially stable during the pandemic, a couple of challenges continue. One key revenue source (Transient Occupancy Tax) has still not recovered to pre-pandemic levels, and the rising costs of unfunded pension continue to outpace revenue growth. The Biennial Budget reflects a balance of managing costs within staff control, anticipating moderate revenue increases, maintaining current service levels, and continued efforts to meet the community’s needs and City Council’s goals. The City continues with budget balancing measures as costs rise faster than our moderate revenue growth. The budget does not anticipate an economic downturn even with higher inflation and the current state of global affairs, as the economy overall continues to grow. Assuming this trend were to change with local impacts, the City may require additional measures to be taken in the future to address those issues.
Budget Adoption Process
The City operates on a two-year (biennial) budget. Through the budget, the Council authorizes City staff to collect revenues and make expenditures. The City’s budget adoption process has the following main steps:
■ The City Council assesses community priorities and adopts goals; ■ City staff forecasts the revenues expected and expenditures anticipated over the next two years; ■ City staff creates a proposed budget based on Council’s priorities and presents the budget to the Budget Committee; and
■ The Council gathers public input, deliberates, amends, and adopts the budget prior to July 1.
City Council Goals
The Council revisits and updates its goals every two years in association with the budget process. The Council held its most recent goal setting community workshop in March 2024. The following goals were adopted:
■ A City that is safe;
■ A City that is financially sound;
■ A City that is attractive, well-planned, and well-maintained; ■ A City that provides a high quality of life and a small-town atmosphere for its residents; and
■ A City that provides efficient and effective public services.

Financial Environment
City staff analyzed the City’s financial environment and forecasted expected revenues and expenditures for the next five years – two budget years, plus three years beyond.
The City has maintained a balanced budget over the last couple of fiscal years, and the General Fund Balance (not including Measure K) has grown from $10.95 million in FY 20/21 to nearly $13.8 million in FY 22/23 through economic improvement, from $8.3 million in federal funding through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) to assist with financial recovery due to the pandemic, to over a $1.0 million from salary savings due to vacancies attributable both to retirements of long-tenured staff and a challenging period for public safety recruitments. The City Council also used this opportunity to approve a pension trust in May 2022, by contributing $1.0 million of the General Fund reserve to assist with future pension liabilities and establishing a Pension Rate Stabilization Funding Policy to provide additional funds when revenue exceeds expense. In February 2024, due to economic improvement, the City Council approved an additional $300 thousand contribution into the pension trust.
Even with these positive steps, the unfunded pension liability continues to increase at a much faster pace than the assumed revenue growth and interest earned on the pension trust, which is still in its infancy. The unfunded pension expense for FY 23/24 is $3.87 million and is estimated to increase to $6.14 million by FY 28/29.
The City’s main revenue source is sales tax revenue, which comprises approximately 34% to 35% of General Fund revenue and has experienced historic growth in the last few fiscal years. The estimate for FY 23/24 sales tax revenue is currently $10.5 million. This figure isless than the previous two fiscal years, which was slightly over or near $11.0 million, though this leveling of sales tax revenue was expected. During the pandemic, consumers were purchasing more goods online, including new vehicles, at higher levels – facts attributable to COVID-19 and global supply chain shortages. Further, the City lost a couple of large brick and mortar retailers recently, though the property owner is actively seeking new tenants. Looking ahead, though, sales tax revenue is projected to grow between 2.5% to
3.0% annually, as these vacant spaces will eventually be filled and consumers will continue to purchase goods.
Property tax revenue is historically a stable revenue source and has grown an average of 6% annually given rising home values and inflation (Proposition 218 caps inflation growth at 2%). This is the City’s second highest revenue source and constitutes approximately 28% to 30% of the General Fund.
Property tax is expected to grow between 3.5% to 4.5% annually with the sale of homes and higher inflation. This is less than the previous average, as higher interest rates and stabilized home values encourage fewer home sales. Also, the City has recaptured most of the revenue due to changes in assessed valuation during the Great Recession.
The economic impact of the pandemic is considered to be behind us, but the City continues to feel the impact of fewer people travelling for business and leisure. The City’s hotel revenue was expected to be near $3.0 million prior to COVID-19, as a new hotel opened and revenues reached $2.5 million in FY 18/19, but decreased to $1.6 million in FY 20/21. This revenue source has slowly recovered and has hovered around $2.2 million, which approaches neither pre-pandemic levels nor projections.
The City has taken positive steps as described above, but Pleasant Hill continues to face fiscal challenges and needs to strive for revenue opportunities and expenditure savings.

Biennial Budget
Staff’s priority in preparing the budget was to maintain current service levels and make targeted additional investments responsive to the community’s priorities and the City Council’s goals. The main characteristics of the FY 24/25 – FY 25/26 Biennial Budget are the following:
■ Modest but consistent revenue growth;
■ Continuation of existing levels of public services and staffing; and ■ Modest inflationary growth for most expenditures, except significant growth in employee benefit and fuel costs
The budget is organized in the following six sections:
■ Background;
■ Departmental budgets;
■ General Fund budget information;
■ Other City funds budget information;
■ Five-year forecast; and
■ Appendix.
The City is expecting General Fund revenues will total $31.4 million in FY 24/25 and increase to $32.1 million in FY 25/26. General Fund expenditures are slightly higher than revenues, totaling $33.7 million in FY 24/25 and $35.2 million in FY 25/26. The proposed budget is projecting that the General Fund Balance will be $11.3 million in FY 24/25 and $8.2 million in FY 25/26.
Five-Year Forecast
The City traditionally creates a five-year revenue and expenditure forecast as part of the budget.
Overall, the forecast shows that, if no intervention is taken, faster growing expenditures will outpace modestly increasing revenues, resulting in a structural deficit and requiring the use of General Fund reserves (fund balance).

Future Challenges and Uncertainty
Even with continued economic recovery in the majority of the City’s revenue categories, there are still challenges and uncertainty ahead.
City staff has already reviewed, and reduced where reasonable, personnel, supply, and services costs to maintain the current high level of public service. There have been significant increases to the cost of the City’s CalPERS unfunded liability, and insurance costs continue to rise due to issues within the state, including wildfires, and nationwide legal settlements related to public safety. The City has tried to contain costs within its control, but these required expenditures are not necessarily within staff nor City Council’s control. Unlike many other public agencies, one area in which the City is not facing rising costs relates to post-retirement health care, since the City does not provide that benefit.
The City, like many other municipalities, deferred investments in capital assets during the recession and as a result of state funding reductions. To address the need, Pleasant Hill voters passed Measure K in 2016, which enabled additional investment in the City’s roads, buildings (i.e. Pleasant Hill Library), sidewalks, and other infrastructure to maintain
the safe, attractive condition that characterizes
the community and to which residents and
businesses are accustomed.
Further, additional funding from Contra Costa
Transportation Authority Measure J and other
transportation taxes through the Road
Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA)
and the Accountability Act of 2017 (SB1 Beall) will provide needed funding for streets and roads and other transportation uses. The City has and continues to use the infusion of one-time funds from the American Rescue Plan Act for projects like backup emergency generators at the City’s Corporation Yard and City Hall. The City must prioritize projects since it does not have sufficient funds to fully address all deferred capital needs for streets and storm drains, or to make other desirable improvements to infrastructure. Even with the essential revenue sources noted above, there are many projects that remain unfunded, but staff will continue earnestly looking for grant opportunities to complete them.
Conclusion
The FY 24/25 – FY 25/26 Biennial Budget maintains current service levels, attempts to mitigate the impact of rising costs, and makes targeted investments responsive to community priorities and City Council goals. I look forward to implementing the many excellent services and programs this budget supports. The City will continue to manage costs responsibly and within the resources available, but the challenge for Pleasant Hill and many municipalities will remain those rising costs beyond City control, including unfunded pension liability due to CalPERS and insurance premiums tied to natural disasters and current state law.
Respectfully submitted,
Ethan Bindernagel, City Manager

ABOUT THE CITY OF PLEASANT HILL
Incorporated in 1961, Pleasant Hill is today a modern and dynamic city in the East Bay Area of San Francisco.
Centrally located along Interstate 680 in Contra Costa County, it offers a strong sense of community and small town charm, yet boasts a vibrant business climate that attracts thousands of visitors.
The City’s roots can be traced to a growing farming community in the 1880’s and the opening of the Central Pacific Railroad through Diablo Valley in 1891. In 1911, an electric railroad passed through Pleasant Hill on its way to the Sacramento Valley.
Population growth accelerated after World War II, and the general area became more desirable for industry. The community gradually took shape as part of the suburban East Bay Area with residents keen on creating a unique identity for Pleasant Hill.
Residents of the Pleasant Hill area voted in 1959 against annexation into Walnut Creek. Two years later, on November 7, 1961, they voted to incorporate Pleasant Hill as a city and elected the first City Council. In 1964, Interstate 680 opened between Monument Boulevard and Willow Pass Road, completing the freeway from Oakland to Sacramento. This expanded the opportunity for residential and commercial development activity along the 680 corridor.
A new City Hall was constructed in 1991, helping to cement the City’s identity and spur the redevelopment of the downtown area. Pleasant Hill Downtown opened in 2000, with more than 350,000 square feet of retail space, entertainment venues, restaurants, and a central plaza area for community gatherings and events.
Community pride is strong in Pleasant Hill today, as the City has successfully retained its small-town charm and identity amidst the thriving East Bay Area.

BUDGET SUMMARY
The City operates on a two-year (biennial) budget. Through the budget, the City Council allocates the City’s limited financial resources to the community’s top priorities and authorizes City staff to collect revenues and make expenditures.
Staff prepared a proposed FY 24/25 – FY 25/26 Biennial Budget by forecasting revenue and allocating it for expenditure on the City Council’s priorities, as expressed in the City Council Goals.

City of Pleasant Hill Biennial Budget Fiscal Year 24/25 & Fiscal Year 25/26 General Fund Budget Information 65
GENERAL FUND REVENUE
General Fund revenues are expected to total $31.0 million in FY 24/25 and grow to $31.9 million in FY 25/26. Future revenues from sales tax, transactions and use tax, and property tax were forecasted using information provided by the City’s consultants, HdL Companies and HdL Coren & Cone (HdL).
Consistent with modest forecast scenario, most other revenues are expected to grow at 3.0% annually for FY 24/25 and FY 25/26. City fees are expected to grow at least 2.4% based on the annual change in the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) for the San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose metropolitan area as of February 2024 and updates to the Master Fee Schedule for full cost recovery.
Property Tax
Property Tax
Based on consultation with HdL, an experienced property tax consultant, property tax revenue is expected to grow to $4.3 million, an increase of 4.7% in FY 24/25; and $4.5 million, an increase of 4.2% in FY 25/26. The forecast assumes an average annual increase of 4.6% for FY 26/27 through FY 28/29.
The increase each year is due to higher assessed valuations on residential properties that have changed ownership and a smaller portion due to the recapture of temporarily reduced valuations.
Property Tax in Lieu of Vehicle License Fee
The motor vehicle license fee (VLF) is an annual tax on the ownership of registered vehicles collected by the State Department of Motor Vehicles and then distributed to cities and counties. In 2004, the State Legislature permanently reduced the tax rate from 2% to 0.65% of a vehicle’s current market value. The reduction in VLF revenue to cities and counties was offset by an increased transfer of property tax from the State to cities and counties. This transfer is called the “Property Tax in Lieu of VLF.” The City is forecasting ongoing increases to this revenue such that it will total $4.7 million in FY 24/25, with a further increase to $4.9 million in FY 25/26.
City of Pleasant Hill Biennial Budget Fiscal Year 24/25 & Fiscal Year 25/26 General Fund Budget Information 66
Sales Tax and Transactions and Use Tax
Sales Tax
Based on projections provided by both HdL Companies and the City’s Economic Development Manager, sales tax is projected to be $10.5 million in FY 23/24, increase to $10.9 million in FY 24/25 and then $11.1 million in FY 25/26. The assumption is based on the City’s past historical spending patterns, adjusting for online sales after the Supreme Court’s South Dakota v. Wayfair Inc. decision, inflation, and the assumption that the large, vacant retail spaces in Downtown Pleasant Hill will be filled. The City also had some one-time negative corrections in FY 23/24 by the State for $0.14 million. Online shopping revenue is deposited in the County pool and then allocated on a pro rata share of taxable sales each quarter.
Transactions and Use Tax (TUT)
Measure K, a half-cent transactions and use tax (TUT), was approved by Pleasant Hill voters in the November 2016 election. The tax became effective April 1, 2017, for a 20-year period. Based on projections provided by HdL Companies, TUT is projected to be $5.6 million in FY 24/25 and $5.8 million in FY 25/26. This is combined in the General Fund for reporting, but detail is shown as part of the Other City Funds section.
Other Taxes and Assessments
Franchise Fees
State law authorizes cities to grant franchises to utility and other companies for their use of the public right of way (streets, alleys, sidewalks, etc.) to locate utility lines or operate vehicles. The franchise fees are calculated as a percentage of the franchisee’s gross revenues earned from services delivered or performed by the franchisee within the City. The maximum gas and electric franchise rate is the greater of 1% on gas and electric adjusted gross revenue OR 2% of the asset investment base within the City, as set by California law. PG&E remits its payment annually in April based on revenues for the preceding calendar year. The City collects a franchise fee of 5% from cable operators (currently AT&T/Pacific Bell, Comcast and WAVE Broadband). The fee is calculated on gross revenues. Additionally, the City collects a 12% negotiated franchise fee from the City’s refuse collector, Republic Services. Franchise fee revenue is projected for $2.4 million in FY 24/25 and $2.5 million for FY 25/26, which is an annual increase of
3.0% year-over-year.
Transient Occupancy Tax
The City currently has seven hotels (Hyatt House, Sonesta Select, Residence Inn by Marriott, Hilton Homewood Suites, Extended Stay America, Sun Valley Inn, and Pleasant Hill Inn). These hotels collect and remit a 10% transient occupancy tax (TOT) to the City. The City Council authorized the establishment of the TOT by Ordinance No. 139 in 1965.
TOT revenues have not returned to pre-COVID levels, as travel for business and leisure is still suppressed.
TOT revenues climbed to $2.5 million in FY 18/19 and were projected to reach $3.0 million, but TOT dropped to $1.6 million during COVID-19. This revenue source is still slowly recovering and has been level the last couple of fiscal years at $2.2 million. In FY 23/24, revenues for TOT are estimated at $2.21 million with a projected annual increase of 2% to $2.26 million in FY 24/25 and $2.3 million in FY 25/26.
City of Pleasant Hill Biennial Budget Fiscal Year 24/25 & Fiscal Year 25/26 General Fund Budget Information 67
Business License Tax
Business license taxes are paid by individuals and entities for conducting business in Pleasant Hill and help pay for public services that contribute to a favorable business environment. The rate depends upon the category of the business. Some businesses (e.g., general contractors) have the option to pay a flat rate, but most pay the tax based on their gross receipts in the City of Pleasant Hill. The City Council authorized the establishment of the Business License Tax by Ordinance No. 33 in 1962.
The City processed thousands of active business licenses this past year and implemented a new permitting and licensing system. Revenue in this category is expected to continue to increase slightly over past years and to continue to increase by the expected growth rate of inflation, approximately
3.0%, to $3.2 million in FY 24/25 and $3.3 million in FY 25/26.
Other Taxes
Other taxes include utility user’s tax (UUT) and property transfer tax. Utility user’s tax is a 1% tax levied on telephone service. The City Council authorized the establishment of the UUT by Ordinance No. 524 in 1983. Property transfer tax is collected on the sale of property at the rate of $0.275 for each $500 of sales price or portion thereof. The City Council authorized the establishment of the Property Transfer Tax by Ordinance No. 194 in 1967.
This revenue source is lower than previous years, as rising mortgage rates have not decreased home values, but have dampened homes sales. These revenues are projected to be $0.28 million in FY 24/25 and increase to $0.30 million in FY 25/26.
Licenses and Permits
The revenue in this category comes from permits and fees collected. This category includes building, electrical, plumbing, and energy permits, primarily generated from construction-related activity. Permit and fee revenue for FY 23/24 is projected to be $1.6 million, due to the high number of projects that are nearly completed, which include two large, residential developments projects. Revenue for FY 24/25 and FY 25/26 is based on an annual 3% growth rate, not including these large one-time revenues, and assumes adoption of the updated Master Fee Schedule that was recently completed to incorporate full cost recovery. The revenue is projected to be $1.42 million in FY 24/25 and $1.46 million in FY 25/26.
Fines and Forfeitures
The fines and forfeitures category primarily consists of public-safety related fines and forfeitures and traffic violations. The revenue in this category was fairly constant prior to COVID-19 at around $45 thousand and is projected to be $15 thousand in FY 23/24. The City is being conservative with this revenue source and projected $15 thousand in FY 24/25 and $16 thousand in FY 25/26.
City of Pleasant Hill Biennial Budget Fiscal Year 24/25 & Fiscal Year 25/26 General Fund Budget Information 68
Use of Money and Property
The use of money and property category includes interest and dividend income on the City’s investment of fund balances, primarily General Fund working capital and reserves. The City’s financial institution is Bank of the Montreal (formerly Bank of the West). The City’s cash is primarily invested with the State of California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) and with Chandler Asset Management. Revenues in this category are forecasted to fluctuate depending upon the General Fund’s invested cash balance.
This revenue source has risen as interest rates have climbed significantly over the last couple of years partially due to inflation concerns. Revenue in this category is projected at $660 thousand in FY 24/25 and $670 thousand in FY 25/26.
Intergovernmental
This category consists of revenue from other governmental agencies, such as mandated cost reimbursements and reimbursements for Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) from the State of California and includes California Statewide Communities Development Authority revenue from the Wood Creek Apartment public benefit agreement. Revenue is expected to be $205 thousand in FY 24/25 and $206 thousand in FY 25/26.
Other Revenue
This category includes numerous “other” smaller revenues that do not fall within the above-mentioned categories. This also includes revenue that is currently unknown or unexpected, but the City receives (e.g., FEMA reimbursements, grants, refunds). Revenues in this category are projected to remain fairly constant at $271 thousand for FY 24/25 and FY 25/26.
Charges for Services
Revenues from charges for services mainly comprise external reimbursements and fee-based payments for services. These revenues primarily include fees for police service and false alarm/renewal fees. This category also includes Planning and Engineering-related fees for services performed, such as planning and engineering review of development projects. This revenue has been adjusted based on the assumption of the adoption of the Master Fee Schedule, as discussed in “Licenses and Permits” section above. Revenues are forecasted to at $474 thousand in FY 24/25 and $490 thousand in FY 25/26.
Transfers from Other Funds
This category consists of a transfer of $30 thousand annually from the Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Account (SLESA) grant to the General Fund to offset various Police Department expenditures.
In FY 24/25, this also includes the transfer of the remaining American Rescue Plan Act funds for governmental services for $251 thousand.

GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES
General Fund expenditures are budgeted at $33.8 million for FY 24/25 and $35.2 million for FY 25/26.
The major expenditure categories are discussed below. Staff budgeted salaries and most non-personnel expenditures are projected as growing 3.0% annually.
Personnel – Salaries and Benefits
Salaries
Salaries are budgeted to increase at 3.25% for FY 24/25 and 3.5% for FY 25/26 based on recently approved Memorandum of Understanding agreements working with the City’s bargaining groups.
Salaries are budgeted to be $15.7 million in FY 24/25 and increase to $16.2 million in FY 25/26. The budget assumes that a portion of salaries for some positions will continue to be funded by Capital Improvement and other Special Revenue Funds transferred into the General Fund. The budget also assumes savings due to hiring freezes on certain positions, which will provide savings of $0.9 million in FY 24/25 and $0.95 million FY 25/26.
Benefits – Retirement
Employee pension benefit costs were budgeted consistent with the most recent actuarial information provided by the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS). The City is required to make two types of contributions to CalPERS, one for new service credit earned by current employees (referred to as “normal cost”) and one to pay off unfunded liability related to service credit earned by employees in the past. The City’s normal cost contributions are $2.0 million in FY 24/25 and increase to $2.1 million in FY 25/26. Contributions toward unfunded liability grew from $3.9 million in FY 23/24 to $4.6 million in FY 24/25, and increase to $4.9 million in FY 25/26. The City Council approved a pension rate stabilization reserve in May 2022 by approving a Section 115 trust and making an initial deposit of $1.0 million. The Section 115 trust will be another tool to respond to pension fluctuations, but this will take time to build even though the City has earned interest and provided additional contributions. The balance of the Section 115 trust as of May 2024 is approximately $1.4 million.
Benefits – Health Insurance and Other Benefits
For purposes of the biennial budget, staff assumed medical insurance premiums would increase 6% annually. Insurance costs are projected to be $1.7 million in FY 24/25 and increase to $1.8 million for FY 25/26. Workers Compensation insurance is expected to increase due to the market, which is projected to be $718 thousand in FY 24/25 and $791 thousand in FY 25/26. Other miscellaneous benefits, including dental insurance and vision insurance, are expected to increase by 3% annually.
City of Pleasant Hill Biennial Budget Fiscal Year 24/25 & Fiscal Year 25/26 General Fund Budget Information 71
Non-Personnel Expenditures
General Expenses
This category includes expenditures for postage, fuel, printing, memberships, publications, uniform allowance and other miscellaneous expenditures. The main increase in this category is rising fuel costs.
The projected expenditures are $808 thousand for FY 24/25 and $831 thousand for FY 25/26.
Professional and Contract Services
This category includes expenditures for specialized contract services such as legal, auditing, videotaping, and contracted animal control services. The expenditures for this category are expected to be $2.3 million for FY 24/25 and $2.2 million for FY 25/26. The slight decrease is related to election costs in FY 24/25.
Conferences and Training
This category includes expenditures for conferences and training, which are expected to range from approximately $226 thousand to $240 thousand FY 24/25 and FY 25/26. Conferences and training include customer service training and technical training such as the League of California Cities Planning Commissioners Academy and training from the California Public Employers Labor Relations Association.
Most of the training is required training for the Police Department for $146 thousand in FY 24/25 and $160 thousand in FY 25/26.
Maintenance and Repair
This category includes expenditures for relatively minor corrective repairs for City Hall, the Police building, and the Public Services Center. This also includes computer services and software programs that are essential to City services. These are budgeted for $1.1 million and $1.2 million during FY 24/25 and FY 25/26. These expenses are different from those related to the City’s major capital improvement efforts, which are detailed in the Capital Improvement Plan. The City’s annual contribution for capital repairs to City buildings is included in the transfer out category.
Supplies and Materials
This category includes expenditures for supplies and materials and projected to range from $354 thousand to $367 thousand during FY 24/25 and FY 25/26. Supplies include office supplies, computer supplies, landscape supplies, storm drain supplies, graffiti removal supplies, sign supplies, and expenditures for small tools.
Utilities
This category includes expenditures for utilities for City Hall, the Police Department building, and the Public Services Center. Utilities expenditures are budgeted for $621 thousand and $640 thousand for FY 24/25 and FY 25/26, which have risen significantly in the recent years due to rising rates.
City of Pleasant Hill Biennial Budget Fiscal Year 24/25 & Fiscal Year 25/26 General Fund Budget Information 72
Insurance
The City is a member of the Municipal Pooling Authority (MPA), a joint powers authority that provides self-insurance and insurance coverage against the risk of losses. Insurance premiums have risen due to public safety lawsuits nationwide, wildfires, and no limits on settlements in California. Insurance premiums rose from $1.0 million in FY 22/23 to $1.4 million in FY 23/24. They continue to rise and are budgeted for $1.5 million in FY 24/25 and $ 1.7 million FY 25/26 for property, vehicle, and liability coverage. Insurance for workers’ compensation is included in the budget under the employee benefits category.
Promotions and Contributions
This category includes the budget for City Council annual grants to programs such as Meals on Wheels, the Senior Nutrition Program at Pleasant Hill Recreation & Park District, Friends of Rodgers Ranch, Light Up the Night, and other programs such as Community Service Day. The budget will be $165 thousand for FY 24/25 and FY 25/26.
Fixed Assets
This category covers expenditures for furniture and equipment, which are expected to range from $30 thousand annually for FY 24/25 and FY 25/26.

GENERAL FUND FIVE-YEAR FORECAST
The City traditionally creates a five-year revenue and expenditure forecast as part of the Biennial Budget.
The five-year forecast shows that the modestly increasing revenues will be outpaced by faster growing expenditures resulting in a deficit in FY 24/25 through FY 28/29 if no intervention is taken. The City has maintained a better financial position during the pandemic than originally anticipated due to improved sales tax revenues and staff vacancies (attributable to retirements and difficulty in hiring public safety personnel). The continuing economic concern of rising inflation and global events are having a negative local impact that are still unfolding. The infusion of American Rescue Plan Act funds has and will continue to provide much needed financial assistance, those funds are one-time and some of the economic benefit will be harder to be determined (e.g., assisting local businesses with website development). Nonetheless, the five-year forecast remains valuable in illustrating the impact of expected revenue and expenditure changes that will take place. It illustrates trends and highlights the impact of one significant expected expenditure increase: growing required contributions to the City’s unfunded pension liability.
The forecast assumes a 3% annual increase in revenue and expenditures for most categories except salaries, which assumes an increase of 3.25%. Also, sales tax and property tax projections were updated based on the most recent estimates provided by the City’s consultants. The tables below illustrate the General Fund five-year forecast by summary revenue and expenditure type, by department, and by detailed revenue and expenditure type.

BUDGET GLOSSARY
The City’s budget document contains specialized and technical terminology that is unique to public finance and budgeting. To assist the reader of the budget document in understanding the terms, this glossary has been included in the document.
Account – A subdivision within a fund for the purpose
of classifying transactions.
Accounting System – The total set of records and
procedures that are used to record, classify, and report information on an entity’s financial status and
operations.
Accrual Basis of Accounting – The method of
accounting that recognizes transactions on the basis of when they are incurred or committed, rather than
when they are made or received.
Accrued – Term to describe balances that have
increased or accumulated over a period of time, as
with a budget, fund, or benefit.
Adopted Budget – Revenues and appropriations
approved by the City Council in June for the next
two-year FY period.
Allocation – A distribution of funds or an expenditure
limit established for an organizational unit.
Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) – An
official annual financial report of a government.
Formerly known as Comprehensive Annual Financial
Report.
Appropriation – An authorization made by the City
Council that permits the City to incur obligations and to expend resources. An appropriation is limited in the
amount and the period of time in which it may be
expended.
Appropriation Limit – As defined by Section 8 of
Article XIIIB of the California Constitution, enacted by the passage of Proposition 4 at the November 6, 1979
General Election, the growth in the level of certain
appropriations from tax proceeds are generally
limited to the level of the prior year’s appropriation
limit as adjusted for changes in cost of living and
population.
Other adjustments may be made for such reasons as
the transfer of services from one government entity
to another.
Appropriation Resolution – The official enactment by
the City Council to establish legal authority for City
officials to obligate and expend resources.
Assessed Valuation – An official value established for
real estate or other property as a basis for levying
property taxes.
Assets – Government-owned property that has
monetary value.
Audit – A financial audit is a review of the accounting system and financial information to determine how
government funds were spent and whether
expenditures were in compliance with the legislative
body’s (City Council’s) appropriations.
Authorized Positions – In Pleasant Hill, the term
“authorized position” means a position that was
funded in the budget (“authorized”) by the City
Council, although may have been de-funded in
subsequent budgets.
Balance Available – The amount of money available
for appropriation or encumbrance. It is the excess of
cash and near-cash assets of a fund over its liabilities and reserves, commonly called surplus available for
appropriation. It is also the unobligated balance of an appropriation that may be encumbered for the
purposes of the specific appropriation.
City of Pleasant Hill Biennial Budget Fiscal Year 24/25 & Fiscal Year 25/26 Appendix 151
Balance Sheet – A financial statement listing a
fund or organization’s total assets, liabilities,
and equity on a specific date.
Bond – A written promise from a local government to
repay a sum of money on a specific date at a specified
interest rate. Bonds are most frequently used to
finance capital improvement projects such as
buildings, streets, and bridges.
Budget – A financial plan for a specific period of time (fiscal year) that matches all planned revenue and
expenditures with various municipal services.
Budget Amendment – A legal procedure utilized to
revise a budget appropriation. City Staff has the
