evaluation of Grantee’s operation to ensure compliance with this Agreement, with reasonable advance notice.

50. Self-Dealing and Arm’s Length Transactions: All expenditures for which reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement is sought shall be the result of arm’s- length transactions and not the result of, or motivated by, self-dealing on the part of the Grantee or any employee or agent of the Grantee. For purposes of this provision, “arm’s-length transactions” are those in which both parties are on equal footing and fair market forces are at play, such as when multiple vendors are invited to compete for an entity’s business and the entity chooses the lowest of the resulting bids. “Self-dealing” is involved where an individual or entity is obligated to act as a trustee or fiduciary, as when handling public funds, and chooses to act in a manner that will benefit the individual or entity, directly or indirectly, to the detriment of, and in conflict with, the public purpose for which all grant monies are to be expended.
51. Severability: If any part of this Agreement is found to be unlawful or unenforceable, such provisions will be voided and severed from this Agreement, but the remainder of the provisions in the Agreement will remain in full force and effect.

A site visit may include, but not be limited to, monitoring the use of grant funds, provide technical assistance when needed, and to visit the State funded project.
53. Termination: The Agreement shall be subject to termination by the State Librarian or designee upon notice to the Grantee at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of termination. In the event this agreement is terminated, the Grantee shall deliver to the State Librarian copies of all reports, accounting, data, and materials prepared up to the date of termination. The State Librarian shall determine and pay the Grantee for necessary and appropriate expenditures and obligations up to the date of termination which have not been covered by prior installments previously paid to the Grantee. Upon such termination, the unused portion of the grant award must be returned to the California State Library within 45 days. If funding has been advanced to the Grantee, any unobligated balances, as determined by the State Librarian, shall be returned to the State Library within 45 days of the notice of termination.

54. Timeline: Time is of the essence to this Agreement. It is mutually agreed between the parties that the grant application and the timeline included therein are part of the Agreement.
55. Unused Funds: At the end-of-term Grantee agrees to return any unexpended or unaccounted for funds to the State Library, or to submit a written request for an extension of the grant period. Funds will be considered unexpended or unaccounted if they were: (1) not used for their intended purpose, or (2) used inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.
Funds will also be considered unaccounted for, and must be returned, if the proposal outcomes or deliverables are materially incomplete by the end-of-term or earlier termination, as determined by the State Library in its sole discretion.
56. Waiver of Rights: California State Library shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by California State Library. No delay or omission on the part of California State Library in exercising any rights shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by California State Library of a provision of this Agreement shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of California State Library’s right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision or any other provision of this Agreement. No prior waiver by California State Library, nor any course of dealing between California State Library and Grantee, shall constitute a waiver of any of California State Library’s rights or of any of grantee’s obligations as to any future transactions. Whenever the consent of California State Library is required under this Agreement, the granting of such consent by California State Library in any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of California State Library.
57. Work Products: Grantee shall provide California State Library with copies of all final products identified in the Work Plan and Application. Grantee shall also provide the State Library with copies of all public education and advertising material produced pursuant to this Agreement.
58. Worker’s Compensation: The State of California will not provide Workers’ Compensation insurance for Grantee or Grantee’s employees or contract personnel. If Grantee hires employees to perform services required by this Agreement, Grantee shall provide Workers’ Compensation insurance for them.

RE: Contractor and Grantee Compliance with Economic Sanctions Imposed in Response to Russia’s Actions in Ukraine
Dear Grantee,
You are receiving this notification because you currently have an active grant through the California State Library.
On March 4, 2022, Governor Gavin Newsom issued Executive Order N-6-22 (EO) regarding sanctions in response to Russian aggression in Ukraine. The EO is located at https://www.gov.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/3.4.22-Russia-Ukraine-Executive-Order.pdf.
The EO directs all agencies and departments that are subject to the Governor’s authority to take certain immediate steps, including notifying all contractors and grantees of their obligations to comply with existing economic sanctions imposed by the U.S. government in response to Russia's actions in Ukraine, as well as any sanctions imposed under state law.
This correspondence serves as a notice under the EO that as a contractor or grantee, compliance with the economic sanctions imposed in response to Russia’s actions in Ukraine is required, including with respect to, but not limited to, the federal executive orders identified in the EO and the sanctions identified on the U.S. Department of the Treasury website (https://home.treasury.gov/policy-issues/financial-sanctions/sanctions-programs-and-country- information/ukraine-russia-related-sanctions). Failure to comply may result in the termination of contracts or grants, as applicable.
Please note that for any agreements or grants valued at $5 million or more, a separate notification will be sent outlining additional requirements specified under the EO.

PREVIOUS COUNCIL
ACTION:
On January 23, 2024, City Council passed an Agenda
Item on Consent entitled, “Request for Update from Staff Regarding the Date that Parking Enforcement for Street
Sweeping will Resume.”
STATEMENT OF THE
ISSUE:
The City desires to resume enforcing street sweeping
parking restrictions in an equitable matter and citywide.
The purpose is to facilitate removal of debris from City gutters during street sweeping operations, and meet
City’s legal requirement to prevent pollutants from
entering the storm drain system.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
APPROPRIATE $550,000 from the General Fund
(Fund0001) to the General Capital Fund (Fund2001) for
the effort to install street sweeping signs equitably
throughout all City neighborhoods – Public Works
Department (Daniel Chavarria/Tawfic Halaby 510-620-
5482).
AGENDA
REPORT
318
February 6, 2024
DISCUSSION:
On March 19. 2020, at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-33-20, known as the “shelter-in-place order.” As a result of this order, many Richmond residents stayed home during normal workday working hours, and consequently, they did not move their vehicles for street sweeping activities. City Council directed staff to temporarily cease enforcing street sweeping parking restrictions.
Street sweeping activities have continued unabated since before the COVID-19 pandemic. However, parking enforcement due to street sweeping activities, is not currently being implemented. When performing street sweeping activities, street sweeping trucks are currently veering away from gutters and into streets to avoid parked cars, and thus are not properly removing debris from City gutters.
Street sweeping is required as stated in the Contra Costa County Municipal Regional Permit (MRP) Version 3.0, Section C10, Trash Load Reduction. The permit states that permittees, such as the City of Richmond, are to implement practices to “control and reduce non-stormwater and polluted stormwater discharges into storm drains and watercourses.” The permit goes on to state that permittees shall evaluate street sweeping effectiveness and that examples of evaluations include, “effectiveness associated with enhanced street/curb accessibility via proper signage, ticketing, and towing vehicles when appropriate.”
In order to conform to the MRP requirements, the City must remove debris that is accumulating in the gutter. The best way to remove debris from the gutters is to enforce street sweeping parking restrictions. When residents, businesses, and visitors know that street sweeping parking restrictions are enforced, then they are likely to remove their vehicles from restricted areas as posted. Street sweepers can then do their jobs properly and remove debris from the gutters, thus precluding pollutants from entering the storm drain system.
Public Works staff is working on developing a “No Parking” street sweeping sign inventory that documents the locations of all of the existing and missing street sweeping signs throughout the City. Given current staffing levels, this inventory will take months to develop if performed entirely in-house. However, according to recent studies, there are 16 subdivisions or neighborhoods in the City of Richmond that do not have street sweeping signs, namely: Bristlecone, Canyon Oaks, Carriage Hills South, Country Club, Greenridge, Hasford Heights, Hilltop Bayview, Hilltop Green, Lenora, Marina Bay, Metro Richmore, Panhandle Annex, Point Richmond, Quail Hill, Richmond Annex, and Via Verdi (Sobrante Glen).
The City desires to have an equitable street sweeping program wherein:
residents, business owners, and visitors all have a clear understanding of street sweeping parking restrictions;
319
February 6, 2024
all streets that are swept are properly signed for parking restrictions during programmed street sweeping activities;
the City’s street sweeping program is implemented in a fair, consistent, and predictable manner throughout all of Richmond’s neighborhoods; and street sweeping parking violations will be enforced in a fair and equitable manner throughout all neighborhoods in the City.
To this end, City staff is requesting City Council to adopt the attached resolution, appropriating $550,000 from the General Fund to initiate a street sweeping sign installation project. This allocation represents an initial estimate to install street sweeping signs throughout the City, while the more accurate inventory is developed.
If adopted, staff estimates that the initial project can be planned, bid, constructed, and closed out in eight to nine months. Staff proposes to hire a consultant from the existing on-call engineering or transportation list to assist with developing the citywide street sweeping sign installation project. Inventory services can be included in the consultant’s scope of work to accelerate its development. Staff can then bid the project through the BidsOnline procurement platform to hire a contractor to perform the citywide street sweeping sign installation. After completion of the initial street sign installation project, staff can provide City Council with an update on the initial effort and make any additional recommendations, as appropriate, for funding, maintaining, and improving the program into the future.
Public Works staff will work closely with Parking Enforcement staff to ensure that after the initial street sign installation project is completed, a public outreach effort is initiated alerting residents, businesses, and visitors to publicize the City’s intention to resume enforcement of street sweeping parking restriction violations. A brief grace period will be enacted wherein only parking violation warnings are issued. After the grace period expires, street sweeping parking restriction violators will be ticketed.
SCHEDULE:
City staff will aim to meet the schedule outlined below.
Fabrication and Installation of No-Parking Signs Citywide for the City of Richmond

PREVIOUS COUNCIL
ACTION:

STATEMENT OF THE
ISSUE:
The City Council’s approval is required to approve the
first reading of an Ordinance amending the monthly
salary for the Mayor and City Councilmembers
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
INTRODUCE an ordinance (first reading) amending the
monthly salary for the Mayor and City Council members – City Attorney’s Office (Shannon Moore/Kimberly Chin
510-620-6509).
DISCUSSION:
The City of Richmond’s elected officials have not received a cost-of-living increase since 2007. The current monthly salary for the Mayor is $3,875 and the current monthly salary for Councilmembers is $1,402.50 (Attachment 1: Ordinance No. 24-07 N.S.; Ordinance No. 32-07 N.S.; and Ordinance No. 14-07 N.S.)
AGENDA
REPORT
324
February 6, 2024
Given the substantial increase in the cost of living in the Bay Area since the last salary increase in 2007, and to make compensation equitable and commensurate with comparable cities (See Attachment 1 - Bay Area and Contra Costa Cities Compensation Survey), staff is proposing an increase of five percent per year, non-compounding for sixteen (16) years which is the maximum allowed per California Government Code 36516, as recently amended by Senate Bill No 329 (Attachment 4).
The following table shows a comparison between their current and proposed salaries.
Title Current Proposed
Mayor $3,875/month $6,975.00/month
City Council Members $1,402.50/month $2,524.50/month
The Mayor’s increase will be effective January 1, 2024 and is retroactive to that date.
California Government Code 36516.5 provides that any Council salary increase may take effect only when at least one member of the Council commences a new term. The proposed monthly salary increases for Councilmembers will take effect on January 1, 2025 after the November 5, 2024 General Election since two councilmembers will commence a new term on January 1, 2025.
NEXT STEPS:
Staff recommend approval of the first reading of the Ordinance to amend the monthly salary for the Mayor and Council members.

The bill w ould authorize the salary of council members to be increased beyond the specified maximums to an amount not exceeding the greater of either 5% for each calendar year from the operative date of the last adjustment of the salary in ef fect when the ordinance or amendment is enacted, or an amount equal to inflation since January 1, 2024, based upon the California Consumer Price Inde x, which shall not exceed 10% for each calendar year. The bill would require the city council to consider the adoption of an ordinance to increase council member compensation in open session during at least 2 regular meetings of the city council.
The people of the State of California do enact as follows:
SECTION 1. The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
(a) The compensation schedule for general la w cities has not been adjusted since 1984, meaning that city council compensation has not k ept pace with inflation.
(b) Allowing cities to adjust their compensation for inflation since 1984 may help city councils become more diverse because increased compensation can help individuals from across different income levels receive sufficient income from their service to help ensure that they can continue to serve the public and support their families.
SEC. 2. Section 36516 of the Government Code is amended to read:

Subject:
City of Richmond Annual Comprehensive Financial Report
for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2023
FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact to receiving this report.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL
ACTION:
N/A
STATEMENT OF THE
ISSUE:
The City retains an independent auditor to annually
review and express an opinion regarding the accurate
representation of the City’s financial statements.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
RECEIVE a report on the City’s Annual Comprehensive
Financial Report (ACFR) for Fiscal Year ended June 30,
2023 – Finance Department (Andrea Miller/Mubeen
Qader/Jerry Chak 510-620-6740).
DISCUSSION:
The Finance Department issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) to select certified public accountants to audit the City of Richmond’s (City) financial statements and financial statements of component entities, including the Richmond Housing Authority (RHA), for the fiscal years ending June 30, 2020 through June 30, 2022, with an option to extend the contract in one-year periods, not to exceed a total of two additional fiscal years.
AGENDA
REPORT
339
February 6, 2024
Based on the RFP and interview rating matrixes, Badawi & Associates scored the highest points and was selected as our external auditors. On March 17, 2020, City Council approved a contract with Badawi & Associates. City staff later exercised the option to extend the contract for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023.
The Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) contains the basic financial statements (including notes to the financial statements) and required supplementary information such as the management’s discussion and analysis of the City. The ACFR is prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for local governments as established by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The report is designed to highlight changes in the City’s financial condition and practices over time and to allow consistencies between all state, municipal, and other governmental agencies.
California Government Code section 53891 requires every local government agency to submit a report of all financial transactions to the State Controller’s Office based on data from the audited financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, and that the report is audited by an independent firm of certified public accountants. Since the ACFR is audited by an independent expert, the report provides additional assurance to the community that the City is being responsible stewards of the tax dollars.
Badawi & Associates has audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, and the related notes to the financial statements.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, Badawi & Associates did not audit RHA. Maze and Associates, the external auditors for RHA, are completing the financial audit for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, with an anticipated completion by the end of the current fiscal year. Once that audit has been completed, Badawi & Associates will complete the RHA audit for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, and subsequent years.
The Independent Auditor’s Report begins on page 17 of 312 of Attachment 1 – Annual Comprehensive Financial Report, highlights as follows:
Disclaimer of Opinion on Business-Type Activities, Aggregated Discretely Presented Component Units and Richmond Housing Authority
“Because of the significance of the matter described in the Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion paragraph, we have not been able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion on the financial statements of the business-type activities, Richmond Housing Authority Enterprise Fund, and the aggregate discretely presented component units of the City. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on these financial statements.”
340
February 6, 2024
Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion
“The financial statements of the Richmond Housing Authority and RHA Properties, RHA Housing Corporation and RHA RAD LLC have not been audited for the year ended June 30, 2023. The Richmond Housing Authority’s financial activities are included in the City’s basic financial statements as a major enterprise fund and represent 8.11 percent,
18.66 percent, and 8.67 percent of the assets, net position, and revenues, respectively, of the City’s business-type activities. The financial activities of the RHA Properties, RHA Housing Corporation and RHA RAD LLC are included in the City’s financial activities as discretely presented component units and represent the City’s only discretely presented component units.”
Unmodified Opinions on Governmental Activities, Major Governmental Funds, Port of Richmond, Municipal Sewer Fund and Aggregate Remaining Fund Information
Badawi & Associates conducted their audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS) and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and has provided an unmodified opinion on the City’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. The financial statements in their opinion present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the General Fund, the Community Development and Loan Programs Special Revenue Fund, the Port of Richmond Enterprise Fund, the Municipal Sewer Enterprise Fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City as of June 30, 2023, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

RICHMOND, CA 94804
(510) 620-6740
January 23, 2024
Citizens of the City of Richmond
The Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
We are pleased to present the Annual Comprehe nsive Financial Report (ACFR) of the City of Richmond, California (City). Th e Finance Department has prepar ed this report to present the financial position and the results of the City’s operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, and the cash flows of its proprietary fund types for the year then ended. The basic financial statements and supporting schedules have been pr epared in compliance with Article IV, Section 1(b)3 of the City Charter, with California Government Code Sections 25250 and 25253, and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for local governments as established by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB).
This report consists of management’s represen tations concerning the finances of the City.
Consequently, management assumes full responsibility for the comp leteness and reliability of all the information presented in this report. To provide a reasonable basis for making these representations, management of the City has established a comprehensive internal control framework that is designed both to protect the government’s assets from loss, theft or misuse, and to compile sufficient reliable information for the preparation of the City’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Because the cost of intern al controls should not outweigh their benefits, the City’s comprehensive framework of internal controls has been designed to provide reasonable rather than absolute assurance that the financial statements will be free from material misstatement.
As management, we assert that, to the best of our knowledge and belief, this financial report is complete and reliable in all material aspects.
The City Council is required to adopt an initial budget for the fiscal year to be effective July 1, for the ensuing fiscal year. Budgeted expenditures are adopted through the passage of a resolution, which constitutes the maximum authorized expenditures for the fiscal year and cannot legally be exceeded except by subsequent amendments of the budget by the City Council. Expenditures are controlled at the fund level for all budgeted departments within the City, which means the level at which expenditures may not legally exceed the appropriations. 350
vi
The City’s financial statements have been audite d by an independent auditing firm of licensed certified public accountants. The objective of the independent audit was to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements of the City for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, are free of material misstatement. The independent audi t involved examining evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the fi nancial statements on a test basis; assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates ma de by management; and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. The independent auditor concluded, based upon the audit, that there was reasonable basis for rendering an unmodified opinion on the City’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, but with a disclaimer of opinion for business-type activities as it relates to the Richmond Housing Authority Enterprise Fund and the aggregate discretely presented component units, as the financial st atements of the Richmond Housing Authority and RHA Properties, RHA Housing Corporation and RHA RAD LLC have not been audited for the year ended June 30, 2023. The Independent Auditors ’ Report is presented as the first component of the Financial Section of this report.
Accounting standards require that management provide a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements in the form of Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). This letter of transmittal is designed to complement the MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it. The City’s MD&A can be found immediately following the report of the independent auditors.
The Reporting Entity and Its Services
As required by GAAP, these basic financial statements present the City and its component units, entities for which the City is considered to be financially accountable. Blended component units, although legally separate entities, are in substance part of the City ’s operations; therefore, data from these units are combined with data of the City. Discretely presented component units, on the other hand, are reported in a separate column in th e basic financial statements to emphasize their legal separateness and independent operations from the City. Each blended component unit has a year-end date of June 30. The City’s three discretely presented component units are RHA Properties, RHA Housing Corporation, and RH A RAD LLC. Please see note 1 for a detailed discussion of the financial reporting entity.
The City’s component units and assessment dist ricts are as follows: the Richmond Housing Authority, the Richmond Joint Powers Financing Authorit y, the Richmond Neighborhood Stabilization Corporation, the Richmond Surplu s Property Authority a nd Harbor Navigation, Country Club Vista, and Atlas Interchange Specia l Assessment Districts. The City also has one inactive component unit, Richmond Parking Authority.

Profile of the Government
The City of Richmond was chartered as a city in 1909, and is located 16 miles northeast of San Francisco, directly across San Francisco Bay. Richmond is on a peninsula separating San Francisco Bay (on the south) and San Pablo Bay (to the nort h), spanning 32 total miles of shoreline. The City's total area is 56.1 square miles, 33.8 of which is land area and 22.3 water area. Richmond is situated near major metropolitan cities and majo r new growth areas. San Francisco is within 35 minutes from Richmond by freeway; Oakland is 20 minutes; San Jose is approximately 60 minutes to the south; and Sacramento, th e state capitol, is approximately 90 minutes to the east. Central Marin County is 15 minutes from Richmond direct ly across the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge.
Freeways provide direct access from Richmond to major new gr owth areas along Interstate 80 north and east to Vallejo, Fairfield, and Sacramento ; along Interstate 680 in central Contra Costa County; and south along Interstate 880 to the San Jose area.
Richmond’s population is 113,518. The population within a 30-mi le radius of Richmond is over
3.7 million and within a 70-mile radius is appr oximately 7.8 million. Richmond is located on the western shore of Contra Costa Co unty, and it is the largest city in the "West County" region consisting of five cities: Richmond, El Cerrito, San Pablo, Hercules, and Pinole.
The City of Richmond provides a full range of municipal services, in cluding police and fire protection, construction and maintenance of highways, streets and infrastructure, library services, storm water and municipal sewer systems, wastewater treatment facility, and the administration of recreational activities and cultural events. The City also operates the Richmond Memorial Convention Center and the Port of Richmond.

The City Manager, appointed by the Ma yor and Council, has authority to manage the administrative and fiscal operations of the City. In addition to the City Manager, the City Attorney, and City Clerk are appointed by the Mayor and Council.
The mission of the City of Richmond is:
The City of Richmond provides services that enhance economic vitality, the environment, and the quality of life of our community.

Factors Affecting Financial Condition
The information presented in the financial stat ements is perhaps best understood when it is considered from the broader pers pective of the specific envir onment within which the City operates.
Local economy
The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA) was signed into law on March 11, 2021. The City’s allocated amount was $27.7 million received in two installments, $13.8 million in August 2021 and $13.8 million in August 2022. These funds have been allocated to programs that provide rent relief for those negatively impacted by COVID-19, assistance for the unhoused, community needs assessment, and community infrastructure improvements.
COVID-19 pandemic impacts on the City of Richmond’s tax revenues have significantly subsided. Revenue reduction is reflected in Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT), and fees and rentals collected by both the Police Department and Community Services. The major revenue streams, including Sales Tax, Property Taxes, and Utility Users Tax are well above pre- pandemic levels. Additionally, voter approved changes to the Business Tax Ordinance have yielded significantly higher amounts of General Fund revenue.
Property Tax continues to see steady growth with actual General Fund Property Taxes in FY2022- 23 increase more than 10% compared to the previous year. More recently, the 2022-2023 County Assessment Roll indicates growth of the Assessed Valuation (AV) at 6.77% for Secured Property Taxes, the main component in changes to se cure property taxes year-to-year. While most properties in Richmond had a year-over-year increase of the 2% maximum allowed under Proposition 13, the major growth leading to the 6.77% AV change was driven by properties sold during the previous calendar year and the updated valuation of the Chevron Refinery by the County Assessor. A component of the General Fund Property Taxes are the Successor Agency Surplus and Pass-through revenues, which increased over $410 million in FY2022-23, almost 20% more compared to the previous year.
The City received $55.5 million in Sales Tax reve nue, which is $5.8 million more than the pre- pandemic high of $44.5 million in FY2018-19, a total increase of 13% over the last three years.
The most recent forecast from the City’s financia l consultants, using the most likely scenarios, expects this trend to continue.
Measure U, which was approved by voters in November 2020, significantly changed the calculation for the Business License Tax. Measure U imposes a calculation based on Gross Receipts. This changed the tax calculation from being based on number of employees or location to a percentage of the business gross receipts. The business tax collected by the City will change with inflation, and with the number of businesses opening and closing. This will more closely tie to the local economy than in years past.

Disclaimer of Opinion and Unmodified Opinions
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Richmond, California (City), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2023, and the related notes to the financial statements. We were engaged to audit the financial statements of the discretely presented component units as of and for the year ended June 30, 2023. These financial statements collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.

Disclaimer of Opinion on Business-Type Activities, Aggregated Discretely Presented Component Units and Richmond Housing Authority
Because of the significance of the matter described in the Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion paragraph, we have not been able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit ev idence to provide a basis for an audit opinion on the financial statements of the business-type activities, Richmond Housing Authority Enterprise Fund, and the aggregate discretely presented component units of the City. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on these financial statements.
358
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
of the City of Richmond
Richmond, California
2 Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion
The financial statements of the Richmond Hous ing Authority and RHA Properties, RHA Housing Corporation and RHA RAD LLC have not been audited for the year ended June 30, 2023. The Richmond Housing Authority’s financial activities are included in the City’s basic financial statements as a major enterprise fund and represent 8.11%, 18.66%, and 8.67% of the assets, net position, and revenues, respectively, of the City’s business-type activities. The financial activities of the RHA Properties, RHA Housing Corporation and RHA RAD LLC are included in the City’s financial activities as discretely presented component units and represent the City’s only discretely presented component units.
Unmodified Opinions on Governmental Activities , Major Governmental Funds, Port of Richmond, Municipal Sewer Fund and Aggregate Remaining Fund Information In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the General Fund, the Community Development and Loan Programs Special Revenue Fund, the Port of Richmond Enterprise Fund, the Municipal Sewer Enterprise Fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City as of June 30, 2023, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Unmodified Opinions
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing st andards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS) and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements The City’s management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control re levant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 359
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
of the City of Richmond
Richmond, California
3 In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months beyond the financial statement date, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinions. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we:
x Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. x Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. x Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. x Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
x Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control–related matters that we identified during the audit.
360
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
of the City of Richmond
Richmond, California
4 Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the Unit ed States of America require that the management’s discussion and analysis, budgetary comparison in formation, and required pension and other post- employment benefits information on pages 7-19 and 179-205 be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basi c financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the meth ods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s response s to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opin ions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements. The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and schedule and budget comparison information of nonmajor governmental funds are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.
The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and schedule and budget comparison information of nonmajor governmental funds are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlyi ng accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Unit ed States of America. In our opinion, the combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and schedule and budget comparison information of nonmajor governmental funds are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information included in the annual report. The other information comprises the information included in the ACFR but does not include the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Our opinions on the financial statements do not cover the other information, and we do not express an opinion or any form of assurance thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and consider whether a material inconsistency exists between the other information and the financial statements, or the other information otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work pe rformed, we conclude that an uncorrected material misstatement of the other information exists, we are required to describe it in our report. 361
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
of the City of Richmond
Richmond, California
5 Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated January 23, 2024 on our consideration of the City’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, an d grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our te sting of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

7 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2023
This narrative overview and analysis of the City of Richmond’s (City) Basic Financial Statements is for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. We encourage r eaders to consider the information presented here in conjunction with the accompanying transmittal letter, basic financial statements, and notes to the financial statements.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
x The City’s total net position increased by $118.1 million during the fiscal year, attributed to $98.1 million increase in governmental activities and $20 million increase in business-type activities. x The liabilities and deferred inflows of the governmental activities of the City exceeded its assets and deferred outflows at the close of fiscal year 2023 by $62 million (net deficit). Alternatively, the assets and deferred outflows of the business-type activities of the City exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows by $133.9 million.
x As of June 30, 2023, the City’s unrestricted net deficit (governmental and business-type activities) totaled $370.5 million, a $83.1 million decrease from prior year. The unrestricted net deficits represent the net unfunded liabilities of the government. Over time, increases and decreases in this account will allow the reader to determine if the City’s condi tion is improving or deteriorating. Restricted net position for governmental and business-type activities increased by a net $22.8 million to $140.6 million.
x The City’s financial statements include a disclaimer of opinion on the financial statements of the Richmond Housing Authority Enterprise Fund (RHA), a blended component unit included in the City’s business-type activities, and three discretely presented component units, RHA Properties, RHA Housing Corporation, and RHA RAD LLC. As of June 30, 2023, the net position of RHA is $25 million, accounting for 18.7% of the City’s business-type activities. Additional information about the disclaimer of opinion can be found in the Independent Auditor’s Report. x The City’s General Fund contingency reserve policy increased the minimum to 21% of the General Fund’s next year’s budgeted appropriations, or $47.3 million. As of June 30, 2023, the balance was $55.2 million, or 24.49%.
x The Net Pension Liability of $369.6 million, repres ents the City’s unfunded pension obligation, increased by $155.3 million from $214.3 million. Th e City reports $74.7 mill ion in the Other Post- Employment Benefit (OPEB) liability for this fiscal year, which is a decrease of $9.8 million from the $84.5 million obligation reported in the prior year.
x The City’s General Fund revenue and other financing sources (uses) exceeded expenditures by $15.8 million in fiscal year 2023. This is primarily attrib utable to property taxes, utility user taxes, and licenses, permits, and fee revenues in excess of expectations for the year. 364
8 OVERVIEW OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The City’s basic financial statements are compri sed of government-wide financial statements, fund financial statements, and notes to the financial statements. This report also contains other required supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements.
Government-Wide Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the City’s finances, in a manner similar to private-sector business.
The Statement of Net Position presents information on all the City’s assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources with the difference between the four reported as net position.
Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City is improving or deteriorating.
The Statement of Activities presents information showing how the government’s net position changed during the fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of the related cash flows.
The government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City that are principally supported by taxes and grants, governmental activities, and business-type activities, which are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges. The City’s activities include five blended component units, which consist of the Richmond Housing Authority, Richmond Joint Powers Financing Authority, Richmond Neighborhood Stabil ization Corporation, Richmond Surplus Property Authority, and Richmond Parking Authority. Although legally separate, the City is financially accountable for the activities of these entities, which are therefore shown as blended as part of the primary government.
RHA Properties, RHA Housing Corporation, and RHA RAD LLC, while being legally separate entities, are included in the City's financial statement as discretely presented component units for which the City bears financial responsibility.
The government-wide financial statements can be found on pages 26-29 of the financial report.
Fund Financial Statements
Fund Financial statements are designed to report information about the groupings of related accounts that are used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives.
The City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements.
Governmental Funds – Governmental funds focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year 2023. Such information may be useful in determining what financ ial resources are available in the near future to finance the City’s programs.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the informat ion presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the government’s near-term financing decisions.
Both the governmental fund Balance Sheet and the governmental fund Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate the comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.
365
9 The City has 21 governmental funds, of which three are considered major funds for presentation purposes.
Each major fund is presented separately in the governmental fund Balance Sheet and in the governmental fund Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances. The City’s three major funds are the General Fund, the Community Development and Loan Programs Special Revenue Fund, and the American Rescue Plan Act Fund. The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 33-36 of the financial report. Data from the other eighteen governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation and reported separately on pages 212-219 of the financial report.
Proprietary Funds – Proprietary funds of the City are two type s: (1) enterprise funds; and (2) internal service funds. The City maintains six enterprise funds that provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial statements, only more detailed. The City maintains three internal service funds to account for its vehicle operat ions, risk management program, and compensated absences. The proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 38-43 of the financial report.
Fiduciary Funds – Fiduciary funds are used to account for reso urces held for the benefit of third parties outside the government. Fiduciary funds are not refl ected in the government-wide financial statements because the resources of those funds are not available to support the City’s own programs. The fiduciary funds for the City consist of Pension Trust Funds, City OPEB Plan Trust Fund, RPOA OPEB Plan Trust Fund, Pt. Molate Private-Purpose Trust Fund, Successor Agency to the Richmond Community Redevelopment Agency Private-Purpose Trust Fund, and Custodial Funds. The fiduciary funds financial statements for these funds can be found on pages 45-46 of the financial report.
The notes provide additional information that is essentia l to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements. The notes to the financial statements can be found on pages 47-176 of the financial report. 366

12 Governmental Activities
Governmental activities increased the City’s net po sition by $98.1 million, accounting for 83% of the City’s total increase in net position of $118 million. Total revenues of $294.6 million exceeded expenses of $195.6 million by $99 million. Revenues increased by $14.1 million or 5% from the prior year primarily due to an increase in charges for services, property tax revenues, and operating grants/contributions.
Expenses increased $14.3 million or 7.8% from the pr ior year primarily due to an increase in general government, public safety, and public works expenses.
Business Type Activities
Business-type activities increased the City’s net position by $20 million. Key factors contributing to the increase in business-type activities are as follows:
x The Richmond Housing Authority’s (RHA) net position increased by $600 thousand. This increase is due to the collection of past due tenant rent and payment agreements. x The Port of Richmond’s (Port) net position increased by $6.8 million, an increase of 6% from the previous year.
x The Municipal Sewer fund’s net position increased by $10.4 million. This increase was primarily due to an increase in revenues.
x Other Enterprise fund’s net position increased by $2.2 million. This increase was primarily due to a grant income of $1.1 million and a decrease in interest expense.

Expenses and Program Revenues

13 Total governmental activities expenses of $195.6 million were offset by $77.4 million in program revenues in fiscal year 2023. Program revenues are derived directly from the program itself or from parties outside the reporting government’s taxpayers or citizenry. They reduce the net cost of the function to be financed from the government’s general revenues. During the fiscal year, the net costs funded by the City’s general revenues were $118 million.
As reflected in the pie chart below, 46% of the governmental program revenues came from Charges for Services, which includes licenses, permits, fees, fines, forfeitures, penalties, and several other revenues.
The remaining 54% of governmental program revenues came from Operating Grants and Capital Grants Contributions, which include restricted revenues su ch as Gas Tax, Transportation and Sales Tax, and Federal/State Grants.
General revenues are all other revenues not categorized as program revenues and include property taxes, sales taxes, utility users’ tax, do cumentary transfer taxes, investment earnings, grants and contributions not related to specific programs and other miscellaneous general revenues. Total general revenue from governmental activities were $217.2 million in fiscal year 2023. The three largest components of general revenues received were Property Taxes-current collections of $71.1 million, Sales Taxes of $55.5 million, and Utility User Taxes of $54.7 million. The follow ing pie chart shows the City’s general revenues by source.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE CITY’S FUNDS
As noted earlier, the City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements.
Governmental Funds
The focus of the City’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City’s financial capacity.
At the end of the fiscal year 2023, the City’s govern mental funds reported total fund balances of $193.2 million, an increase of $35.9 million, or 22.8% from pr ior year. Financial highlights for the City’s major funds are discussed below:
General Fund – The General Fund is the primary operating fund of the City. It is used to report the financial results of the daily operations of the City. The major revenue sources are utility users’ tax, sales tax, and property taxes. The major expenditures ar e salaries and administrative expenses. The City’s general fund revenues increased by $13.1 million or 6.8% and expenditures increased by $12.2 million or
7.2%. The increase in revenues is primarily due to the increased collection of both Utility User Tax and Licenses, permits and fees. Utility User Tax increased by $6.3 million or 13%. Licenses, permits and fees increased by $7.5 million, an increase of over 86.2%.
General Fund expenditures increased by 7.2% across several categories with General Government as the major source of increase. In Other Financing Sour ces and Uses, Operating Transfers-In increased by
97.9%; however, Operating Transfers Out increased by 116.7%. Operating Transfers In included $19.4 million from Secured Pension Override Fund for cu rrent year pension contributions to CalPERS.
Operating Transfers Out included $15 million to the General Capital Fund for the Main Library Renovation Project.
372
16 At the end of the fiscal year 2023, the total fund balance increased by $15.8 million from the prior year to $86.3 million. The General Fund repo rted an unassigned fund balance of $55.2 million, an increase of $10.3 million from prior year, of which the entire balance has been set aside for contingency.
Community Development and Loan Programs – This fund was established to account for the receipt of grant monies and the uses of Community Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnership Program, and Neighborhood Stabilization Program. In conjunction with the dissolution of the Redevelopment Agency, this fund also accounts for th e low- and moderate-income housing activities of the City as Housing Successor to the former Redevelopment Agency’s low-income and moderate-income housing activities. As of June 30, 2023, fund balance is $32.6 million, which represents a $1.2 million increase from prior year.
Proprietary Funds
The City’s proprietary funds are enterprise and internal service funds. Proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government-wide financial statements but in more detail.
The City’s major enterprise funds are the Richmond Housing Authority, Port of Richmond, and Municipal Sewer.
Richmond Housing Authority – The Richmond Housing Authority (RHA) provides affordable housing for low and very low-income residents of Richmond through federally funded housing programs. RHA’s net position increased by $0.6 million to $25 million as of June 30, 2023.
The Port of Richmond – The Port of Richmond (Port) is a public enterprise established by the City and is administered as a department of the City. Operations include the marine terminal facilities and commercial property rentals. The Port’s net position increased by $6.8 million to $29.1 million as of June 30, 2023.
Municipal Sewer Fund – This fund is used to account for a variety of sewer service-related revenues and expenses. Municipal Sewer’s net position increased by $10.4 million to $70.5 million as of June 30, 2023.
GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS
The original adopted budget, excluding transfer s, bond premium and proceeds from sale of property, reflected $190 million in estimated revenues and $198.7 million in appropriations.
Budget adjustments reflect extensive analysis and updates arising from periodic review and Council approved amendments that occurred during the fiscal year.
The final revised budget included a $5.3 millio n increase in estimated revenues and a $14.5 million decrease in appropriations. Actual revenue of $206.6 million was $11.4 million more than the revised revenue budget, a varian ce of 6%. Key elements of the variances in revenues are discussed as follows:
Property taxes totaled $51.9 million, which is $3.3 million more than the revised budget and $5.9 million more than the original budget. Th e increase stems from increases in residual Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF ) Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) receipts which were more than expect ed for the Successor Agency Residual and Pass- through revenue.
373
17 Sales taxes totaled $55.5 mill ion, which was $12 thousand le ss the revised budget and $259 thousand more than the original budget. This corresponded to incr eases in the regular sales tax and proportional increases in both half cent sales tax measures.
Utility users tax (UUT) totaled $54.7 million, wh ich was $3.8 million more than expected. The bulk of the increase was in tax collected from gas & electricity. The combination of a colder and wetter winter compared to previous years and significant rate increase by Pacific Gas & Electric yielded higher than anticipated gas and electricity UUT.
Licenses, permits and fees totaled $16.2 million, which was $8.1 million more than the revised budget amount. The bulk of this stemmed from the first full year of Measure U – the voter approved business tax measure that changed the way business tax is calculated from being based on number of employees to one based on gross receipts with different rates based on the type of businesses and with progressive tiers where busi nesses with higher gross receipts pay a higher tax rate. Additionally, going forward, all bu sinesses are required to have a December 31 st expiration date. This meant the City had to transition about 40% of the businesses from their previous anniversary-based expiration date to the new December 31 st expiration date. The result was that those businesses had to pay both a pror ated tax for 2022 and the full amount for 2023, within fiscal year 2022-23. This resulted in approximately $2.5 million of additional revenue on top of the tax stemming from the new methodology.
The final adjusted appropriations were $184.2 million, a decrease of $14.5 million from the original adopted budget appropriation of $198.7 million. The adopted budget appropriation was decreased primarily due to increased adjustments in public safety and engineering services. The final budget appropriation for transfers out was $34.9 million, an increase of $23 million. The increase was due to several adjustments to the budget made during mid-year to incorporate the City Council approved set asides for Reimagining Public Safety and several transfers approved as part of year-end clean-up to clear negative cash from other funds.
CAPITAL ASSETS AND DEBT ADMINISTRATION
Capital Assets
The City’s investment in capital assets for its governmental and business-type activities as of June 30, 2023 amounted to $545.6 millio n, net of accumulated depreciat ion. Investment in capital assets includes land, construc tion in progress, buildings a nd improvements, machinery and equipment, and infrastructure. Details by type are shown in the following table. 374
18 The City’s infrastructure assets are recorded at thei r historical costs in the government-wide financial statements. Additional information about the City’s capital assets can be found in Note 6 on pages 83-87.
Debt Administration
Long Term Debt – The City’s total debt outstanding increased $18.1 million to $423.4 million as of June 30, 2023. The increase is due to $20 million Californi a State Loan drawdown used to finance the Water Resource Recovery Facility project.
The City does not have any general obligation bonds as of June 30, 2023.
Economic Factors
The City’s economic base has recovered from the slowdown related to the effects of the COVID-19 restrictions. As of January 1, 2023, Property values assessed by the County have increased by 6.77% over the prior year. Increase to the Assessed Valuation (AV) primarily stemmed from an increased valuation of the Chevron Refinery in Richmond. The CPI growth was 2.0% for most properties and there were significant property sales during the year, the refinery assessment by the County went from approximately $2.7 billion in FY2021-22, to $3.0 billion in FY2022-23. Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF) revenue from Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) payments have continued to increase over the years from $600 thousand in fiscal year 2016 to $10.4 million in 2023. Sales Tax revenue has rebounded to above pre-pandemic levels. Sales Tax revenue was $47.7 million in fiscal year 2019, dipped down to $44.5 million in fiscal year 2020, and finally rebounded to $49.0 million in fiscal year 2021, $53.4 in fiscal year 2022, and in fiscal year 2023, Sales Tax revenue increased to $55.5 million.
Measure H
In November 2018, Richmond voters approved Measu re H which called for a new tiered calculation for the Documentary Transfer Ta x. The tax rate goes up based on the sale price of the property. The rate of
0.70% did not change for sales under $1 million, but for sales from $1 million and above, the rates changed according to the following table.
375
19 Even before the new tiered system, the Documentary Transfer Tax was one of the most volatile of revenue streams for the City. A few sales can have a dramatic impact on the General Fund. In fiscal year 2018, before the new tiered rate structure was approved and put in place, the transfer tax collected totaled $6.5 million. In fiscal year 2019, the tax collected went up to $8.0 million. In fiscal year 2020, it went up modestly to $8.7 million. In fiscal year 2021, due to a few unusually large real-estate transactions, it increased significantly to $19.9 millio n. In fiscal year 2022, the Transf er Tax revenue decreased by $1.2 million to $18.6 million. In fiscal year 2023, the Transfer Tax revenue saw a significant dip of $8.2 million, or a decrease of 44%, with a total of $10.4 million in Transfer Tax.
Measure U
In November 2020, Richmond voters approved Measure U which significantly changed the calculation for the business license tax. This changed the tax calculation from based on number of employees or location to a percentage of the business gross receipts. The pe rcentage charged varies based on both the type of business and the amount of gross receipts with the new rates ranging from 0.06% to 0.68% for businesses and 1.08% to 2.4% for rental properties. The new me thodology brought in an additional $5.3 million for the City in fiscal year 2022, an increase of 168% compared to prior year and an additional $7.7 million in fiscal year 2023 with a total of $16.2 million, an increase of 91% over the previous year.
The City continues to closely monitor revenue and expenditures through monthly variance reports to assure adherence to budget controls. Simultaneously, position control is strictly enforced, ensuring that any employee hired is moving into a funded position. For the upcoming fiscal year, staff is working to align the budget forecast with City Council priorities and California State Auditor’s recommendations, review the City’s organizational structure, and provide recommended actions for fiscal sustainability.
This will include planning and addressing pension and Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) funding and determining adequate reserve level per the California State Auditor’s recommendation. Additionally, the City continues to analyze the structural integrity of all funds and identify additional cost reductions and efficiencies.

GOVERNMENTAL FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The funds described below were determined to be major governmental funds by the City in the current fiscal year.
Individual nonmajor governmental funds may be found in the supplemental section.
The General Fund is used for all the general revenues of the City not specifically levied or collected for other City funds and the related expenditures. The General Fund accounts for all financial resources of a governmental unit which are not accounted for in another fund.
The Community Development and Loan Programs Special Revenue Fund accounts for the receipt of Community Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnership Program, and Neighborhood Stabilization Program grant monies and the use of the grants. The Fund also accounts for the low and moderate income housing activities of the City as Housing Successor to the former Redevelopment Agency. Related to the grant disallowed costs discussed in the notes to the financial statements, the City purchased certain loans that had previously been funded with Community Development Block Grant and HOME funds. The grants and loan programs are to be used to provide, within the City of Richmond, new affordable housing, improve existing conditions, assist homeless and disabled with housing, and to expand economic opportunities in business, and employment for low and moderate income residents.
American Rescue Plan Act Fund accounts for funding received from federal government in conjunction with the American Rescue Plan Act to provide resources to help turn the tide on the pandemic, address its economic fallout, and lay the foundation for a strong and equitable recovery. 32389

The Government-Wide Financial Statements include a Statement of Net Position and a Statement of Activities. These statements present summaries of Governmental and Business-Type Activities for the City accompanied by a total column. Governmental activities generally are financed through taxes, intergovernmental revenues, and other non-exchange transactions. Business-type activities are financed in whole or in part by fees charged to external parties. Fiduciary activities of the City are not included in these statements; they are presented separately.
The Statement of Activities presents a comparison between direct expenses and program revenues for each segment of the business-type activities of the City and for each function of the City’s governmental activities. Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated with a program or function and, therefore, are clearly identifiable to a particular function. Program revenues include (a) charges paid by the recipients of goods or services offered by the programs, (b) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational needs of a particular prog ram and (c) fees, grants and contributions that are restricted to financing the acquisition or construction of capital assets. Revenues that are not classified as program revenues, including all taxes, are presented as general revenues.
The Government-wide financial statements are presented on an “economic resources” measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, all of the City’s assets, deferred outflows/inflows of resources and liabilities, includ ing capital assets as well as infrastructure assets and long-term liabilities, are included in the Statement of Net Position. The Statement of Activities presents all the City’s revenues, expenses and other changes in Net Position. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the period in which they are earned while expenses are recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred.
Certain eliminations have been made in regards to interfund activities, payables, and receivables. All internal balances in the Statement of Net Position have been eliminated except those representing balances between the governmental activities and the business-type activities, which are presented as internal balances and eliminated in the total column. In the Statement of Activities, internal service fund transactions have been eliminated. However, transactions between governmental and business-type activities have not been eliminated.

Governmental Fund Financial Statements include a Balance Sheet and a Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances for all major governmental funds and in the aggregate for all non-major funds. An accompanying schedule is presented to reconcile and explain the differences in net position as presented in these statements to the net position presented in the Government-Wide financial statements.
All governmental funds are accounted for on the “current financial resources” measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Accordingl y, only current assets and current liabilities are included on the Balance Sheets. The Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances presents increases (revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets.
Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, reve nues are recognized in the accounting period in which they become both measurable and available to finance expenditures of the current period.
Accordingly, revenues are recorded when received su ch as business licenses and fines and penalties in cash, except that revenues subject to accrual (generally ninety days after the fiscal year-end) are recognized when due. The primary revenue sources wh ich have been treated as susceptible to accrual by the City are property taxes, sales taxes, transient occupancy taxes, franchise taxes, certain other intergovernmental revenues, and earnings on investments. Expenditures are recorded in the accounting period in which the related fund liability is incurred also generally ninety days after the fiscal year end.
Reconciliations of the Fund Financial Statements to the Government-Wide Financial Statements are provided to explain the differences between the two approaches.
The City reports the following major governmental funds in the accompanying financial statements:
General Fund – the General Fund is used for all the general revenues of the City not specifically levied or collected for other City funds and the related expenditures. The General Fund accounts for all financial resources of a governmental unit which are not accounted for in another fund.
Community Development and Loan Programs Special Revenue Fund – accounts for the receipt of Community Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnership Program, and Neighborhood Stabilization Program grant monies and the use of the grants. The Fund also accounts for the low and moderate income housing activities of the City as Housing Successor to the former Redevelopment Agency. Related to the grant disallowed costs discussed in Note 4, the City purchased certain loans that had previously been funded with Community Development Block Grant and HOME funds. The grants and loan programs are to be used to provid e, within the City of Richmond, new affordable housing, improve existing housing conditions, assi st homeless and disabled with housing, and to expand economic opportunities in business, and employment for low and moderate income residents.
American Plan Rescue Plan Act Fund – accounts for funding received from federal government in conjunction with the American Rescue Plan Act to provide resources to help turn the tide on the pandemic, address its economic fallout, and lay the foundation for a strong and equitable recovery. 411

Proprietary Fund Financial Statements include a Statement of Net Position, a Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Fund Net Position, and a Statement of Cash Flows for each major proprietary fund and in the aggregate for all non-major funds. A column representing internal service funds is also presented in these statements. However, internal service balances and activities have been combined with the governmental activities in the Government-Wide Financial Statements.
Proprietary funds are accounted for using the “economic resources” measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, all assets, liabili ties and deferred outflows/inflows of resources (whether current or non-current) are included on the Statement of Net Position. The Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Fund Net Position presents increases (revenues) and decreases (expenses) in total net position.
Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are re cognized in the period in which they are earned while expenses are recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred, regardless of when cash changes hands.
Operating revenues in the proprietary funds are those revenues that are generated from the primary operations of the fund. All other revenues are reported as non-operating revenues. Operating expenses are those expenses that are essential to the primar y operations of the fund. All other expenses are reported as non-operating expenses.
The City reports the following major enterprise funds as proprietary funds of the City:
Richmond Housing Authority – This fund accounts for all funds provided by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to assist low income families in obtaining decent, safe and sanitary housing.
Port of Richmond – This fund accounts for all financial transactions relating to the City-owned marine terminal facilities and commercial property rentals.
Municipal Sewer – This fund accounts for all financia l transactions relating to the City’s Wastewater Collection and Treatment. Services are on a user charge basis to residents and business owners located in Richmond.

Fiduciary Fund Financial Statements include a Statem ent of Fiduciary Net Position, and a Statement of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position. The City’s Fiduciary funds represent Pension and OPEB Trust funds, Private-Purpose Trust funds and Custodial funds. Cu stodial funds are custodial in nature (assets equal liabilities) and do not involve measurement of resu lts of operations. Pension Trust funds and Private- Purpose Trust funds are accounted for on an economic resources measurement focus under the accrual basis of accounting.
The City reports the following fiduciary fund types:
Trust Funds - The Pension and OPEB Trust Funds account for assets held by the City as an Agent for various functions. The General Pension, Police and Firemen’s and Garfield Pension Funds account for the accumulation of resources to be used for retiree pension payments at appropriate amounts and times in the future. The Pt. Molate Private-Purpose Trust Fund is used to account for assets held by the City as an agent for the U.S. Navy and a priv ate developer for the cleanup of Point Molate as discussed in Note 17. The Successor Agency to the Richmond Community Redevelopment Agency Private-Purpose Trust Fund was established as of February 1, 2012 to account for the activities of the Successor Agency to the former Richmond Community Redevelopment Agency as discussed in Note
18. The financial activities of the Trust Funds are excluded from the Government-wide financial statements, but are presented in the separate Fiduciary Fund financial statements.
Custodial Funds – These funds are used to account for assets held by the City as an agent for individuals, private organizations, and other governments, including special assessment districts within the City and non-public organizations. The financial activities of these funds are excluded from the government-wide financial statement, but are presented in separate Fiduciary Fund financial statements.
C. Cash and Investments
The City maintains a cash and investments pool that is available for use by all funds. Each fund’s portion of this pool is displayed as cash and investments on the balance sheet for governmental funds and the statements of net position for proprietary and fiduciary funds. Investments are stated at fair value.
In accordance with GASB Statement No. 40, Deposit and Investment Disclosures (Amendment of GASB Statement No. 3) , certain disclosure requirements for deposits and investment risks were made in the following areas:
x Interest Rate Risk
x Credit Risk
o Overall
o Custodial Credit Risk
o Concentrations of Credit Risk
In addition, other disclosures are specified including use of certain methods to present deposits and investments, highly sensitive investments, credit quality at year-end, and other disclosures. 413

57 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued C. Cash and Investments, Continued
In accordance with GASB Statement No. 31, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Certain Investments and for External Investment Pools, highly liquid money market investments with maturities of one-year or less at time of purchase are stated at amortized cost. All other investments are stated at fair value. The City categorizes the fair value measurements of its investments based on the hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. The fair va lue hierarchy, which has three levels, is based on the valuation inputs used to measure an asset’s fair value: Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observable inputs; and Level 3 inputs are significant unobservable inputs. The City did not ha ve any investments measured using Level 3 inputs as of June 30, 2023.
The City participates in an investment pool managed by the State of California entitled Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) which has invested a portion of the pooled funds in Structured Notes and Asset- Backed Securities. LAIF’s investments are subject to credit risk with the full faith and credit of the State of California collateralizing these investments. In addition, these Structured Notes and Asset-Backed Securities are subject to market risk as to the change in interest rates.
Cash equivalents are considered amounts in demand deposits and short-term investments with a maturity date within three months of the date ac quired by the City and are presented as “cash and investments” in the accompanying basic financial statements.
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, the City considers all pooled cash and investments (consisting of cash and investments and restricted cash and investments) held by the City as cash and cash equivalents because the pool is used essentially as a demand deposit account from the standpoint of the funds. The City also considers all non-pooled cash and investments (consisting of cash with fiscal agent and restricted cash and investments held by fiscal agent) as cash and cash equivalents because investments meet the criteria for cash and equivalents defined above.
D. Prepaids and Supplies
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future fiscal years and are recorded as prepaid items in both government-wide and fund financial stat ements. The cost of prepaid items is recorded as expenditures/expenses when consumed, rather than when purchased. Prepaid items in governmental funds are equally offset by nonspendable fund bal ance which indicates that they do not constitute available spendable resources even though they are a component of net current assets.
Supplies are valued at cost using the weighted average method. Supplies of the governmental funds consist of expendable supplies held for consumption. The cost is recorded as an expenditure in the governmental funds at the time individual inventor y items are consumed rather than when purchased.
Reported governmental fund inventories are equa lly offset by nonspendable fund balance which indicates that they do not constitute available spendable resources even though they are a component of net current assets.

58 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued E. Capital Assets
Capital assets are valued at historical cost or at estimated acquisition value on the date donated. If actual historical costs are not available, assets have been valued at approximate historical cost. The City’s policy is to capitalize assets costing at least $5,000, and th e Housing Authority’s policy is to capitalize assets costing at least $1,000. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives:
Infrastructure includes streets systems, parks and recreation lands and improvement systems, storm water collection systems, and buildings combined wi th site amenities such as parking and landscaped areas used by the City in the conduct of its business. Each major infrastructure system is divided into subsystems. For example, the street system includes pavement, curbs and gutters, sidewalks, medians, streetlights, traffic control devices such as signs, signals and pavement markings, landscaping and land.
In the case of the initial capitalization of general infrastructure assets reported by governmental activities, the City chose to include all such items regardless of their acquisition date or amount.
Net interest costs incurred during the construction of capital assets for the business-type and proprietary funds are capitalized as part of the asset’s cost.
F. Property Held for Resale
Property held for resale is accounted for at the lower of cost or net realizable value or agreed upon sales price if a disposition agreement has been made with a developer.
The City received five properties for resale in fiscal year 2013 with a book value of $573,822 from the acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure on the pr operty related to developer defaults on prior loans under the Richmond Neighborhood Stabilization loan program discussed in Note 4. These properties were rehabilitated during fiscal years 2014 and 2015 increasing the carrying value by a total of $749,716 and $39,303, respectively. In fiscal year 2014, the Ci ty received an additional four properties with a carrying value of $648,238. Six properties were sold in fiscal year 2016, the remaining two properties held for resale had a book value of $671,255 as of June 30 , 2017. In fiscal year 2018, one property was sold during the year, and the carrying value of the one remaining property held for resale was $78,016 as of June 30, 2023.

59 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued G. Property Taxes
The State of California’s Constitution limits the co mbined maximum property tax rate on any given property to one percent (1%) of its assessed value except for voter approved incremental property taxes.
Assessed value equals purchase price and may be adjusted by no more than two percent (2%) per year unless the property is modified, sold, or transferred. The State Legislature distributes property tax receipts from among the counties, cities, school districts, and other districts.
Contra Costa County assesses properties and bills for and collects property taxes as follows:
The term “unsecured” refers to taxes on personal pr operty other than land and buildings. These taxes are secured by liens on the property being taxed. Pr operty taxes levied are recorded as revenue in the fiscal year of levy.
H. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources
In addition to assets, the statement of net position or balance sheet report a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. This separate financial st atement element, deferred outflows of resources, represents a consumption of net assets that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until th en. The first item that qualifies for reporting in this category is the deferred charge on refunding re ported in the statement of net position. A deferred charge on refunding results from the difference in the carrying value of refunded debt and its reacquisition price. This amount is deferred and amortized over the shorter of the life of the refunded or refunding debt. The City also has deferred outflows of resources related to change in fair value of derivative instruments, pensions and OPEB as discussed in Notes 8, 12, and 13.
In addition to liabilities, the statement of net position or balance sheet report a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financia l statement element, deferred inflows of resources, represents an acquisition of net assets or fund bala nce that applies to a future period(s) and so will not b e r e c o g n i z e d a s a n i n f l o w o f r e s o u r c e s ( r e v e n u e ) until that time. The first item which qualifies for reporting in this category arises only under a modified accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, the item, unavailable revenue, is only reported in the governmental funds balance sheet. The governmental funds report unavailable revenues from three sources: lo ans receivable, grants receivable and interest on interfund advances. See Note 9 for further discussion. The City also has deferred inflows of resources related to pensions and OPEB as discussed in Notes 12 and 13. These amounts are deferred and recognized as an inflow of resources in the period that the amounts become available. 416

Net Position
In the City-wide financial statements, Net Position is classified as follows:
N e t I n v e s t m e n t i n C a p i t a l A s s e t s – T h i s a m o u n t consists of capital assets net of accumulated depreciation plus deferred outflows of resources associated with the refunding of related capital debt, reduced by outstanding debt that was used for the acquisition, construction, or improvement of these capital assets.
Restricted Net Position – This amount is restricted by external creditors, grantors, contributors, laws or regulations of other governments. In addition, net position restricted for pension benefits are restricted as a result of enabling legislation.
Unrestricted Net Position – This amount is all net po sition that does not meet the definition of “net investment in capital assets” or “restricted net position.” When an expense is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted net position are available, the City’s policy is to apply restricted net position first.
Fund Balances
Governmental fund balances represent the net current assets of each fund. Net current assets generally represent a fund’s cash and receivables, less its liabilities.
The City’s fund balances are classified based on spending constraints imposed on the use of resources.
For programs with multiple funding sources, the City prioritizes and expends funds in the following order: Restricted, Committed, Assigned, and Unassigned. Each category in the following hierarchy is ranked according to the degree of spending constraint:
Nonspendable represents balances set aside to indi cate items do not represent available, spendable resources even though they are a component of assets. Fund balances required to be maintained intact, such as Permanent Funds, and assets not expected to be converted to cash, such as prepaids, interfund advances and notes receivable are included. However, if proceeds realized from the sale or collection of nonspendable assets are restricted, committed or assigned, then nonspendable amounts are required to be presented as a component of the applicable category.
Restricted fund balances have external restrictions imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, laws, regulations, or enabling legislation which requires the resources to be used only for a specific purpose.
Committed fund balances have constraints imposed by formal action of the City Council which may be altered only by the same formal action of the City Council. The highest level of formal action of the City Council is an Ordinance.

Assigned fund balances are amounts constrained by the City’s intent to be used for a specific purpose, but are neither restricted nor committed. Intent is expressed by the City Council or its designee, the Finance Director, and may be changed at the discretion of the City Council or its designee, during the budget approval process or via budget amendments in accordance with the City’s adopted budget policy. This category includes encumbrances; nonspe ndables, when it is the City’s intent to use proceeds or collections for a specific purpose, and residual fund balances, if any, of Special Revenue, Capital Projects and Debt Service Funds which have not been restricted or committed.
Unassigned fund balance represents residual amounts that have not been restricted, committed, or assigned. This includes the residual general fund balance and residual fund deficits, if any, of other governmental funds.
J. Compensated Absences
Compensated absences comprise unused vacation and certain other compensated time off, which are accrued and charged to expense as earned. Govern mental funds include only amounts that have matured, while their long-term liabilities are recorded in the Statement of Net Position.
K. Bond Issuance Costs, Original Issue Discounts and Premiums and Deferred Charge on Refunding For proprietary fund types, bond premiums and disc ounts are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the effective interest method. Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable bond premium or discount. Any differences between proprietary refunded debt and the debt issued to refund it, called a deferred charge on refunding, is amortized over the remaining life of either the refunded debt or the refunding debt, whichever is shorter. The defe rred charge on refunding is reported as a deferred inflow or outflow of resources, as applicable. Bond issuance costs, other than prepaid insurance, are expensed in the year incurred.
L. Pension
For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the City’s California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) and additions to/deductions from the Plans’ fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by CalPERS. For this purpose, benefit payments (inc luding refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when currently due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value.
M. Other Post Employment Benefits (OPEB)
For purposes of measuring the net OPEB liability, de ferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB, and OPEB expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the City’s OPEB Plans and additions to/deductions from the OPEB Plan’s fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the CalPERS Trust and the PARS Trust. For this purpose, benefit payments are recognized when cu rrently due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value.

The City maintains a cash and investment pool for a ll funds. Certain restricted funds that are held and invested by independent outside custodians through contractual agreements are not pooled. These restricted funds include cash and investment held by trustees. Interest income earned on pooled cash and investments is allocated to the various funds based on the period-end cash and investment balances. Interest income from cash and investments with fiscal agents is credited directly to the related funds.

The City’s cash deposit was fully insured up to $419,365 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The remaining amount was collateralized with securities held by pledging the financial institutions.
The California Government Code (Code) Section 53652 requires California banks and savings and loan associations to secure the City’s cash deposits by pl edging securities as collateral. The Code states that collateral pledged in this manner shall have the effect of perfecting a security interest in such collateral superior to those of a general creditor. Thus, collateral for cash deposits is cons idered to be held in the City’s name.
The fair value of pledged securities must equal at least 110% of the City’s cash deposits. California law also allows institutions to secure City deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the City’s total cash deposits.
C. Investments Authorized by the Code and the City’s Investment Policy Under the provisions of the City’s Investment Polic y, and in accordance with California Government Code, the following investments are authorized:

C. Investments Authorized by the Code and the City’s Investment Policy, Continued The City’s portfolio value fluctuates in an inverse relationship to any change in interest rate. Accordingly, if interest rates rise, the portfolio value will decline. If interest rates fall, the portfolio value will rise. The portfolio for year-end reporting purposes is treated as if it were all sold. Therefore, fund balance must reflect the portfolio’s change in value. These po rtfolio value changes are unrealized unless sold.
Generally, the City’s practice is to buy and hold investments until maturity dates. Consequently, the City’s investments are carried at fair value.
The City is a voluntary participant in the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) that is regulated by Code Section 16429 under the oversight of the Treasurer of the State of California. The City’s investments with LAIF at June 30, 2023 include a portion of the pool funds invested in Structured Notes and Asset-Backed Securities. These investments included the following:
Structured Notes are debt securities (other than asset-backed securities) whose cash flow characteristics (coupon rate, redemption amount, or stated maturity) depend upon one or more indices and/or have embedded forwards or options.
Asset-Backed Securities, the bulk of which are mortgage backed securities, entitle their purchasers to receive a share of the cash flows from a pool of assets such as principal and interest repayments from a pool of mortgages (such as collateralized mortgage obligations) or credit card receivables.
At June 30, 2023, the City had $62,111,914 invested in LAIF, which had invested 2.78% of the pool investment funds in Structured Notes and Asset-Backed Securities as compared to 1.88% in the previous year. The LAIF fair value factor of 0.98482850 was used to calculate the fair value of the investments in LAIF.
The City reports its investment in CalTrust at the fair value amount provided by CalTrust, which is the same as the value of the pool shares. The balance in the Short-Term Fund is available for withdrawal on demand and the balance in the Medium-Term Fund is available for withdrawal upon two days’ notice, and is based on the accounting records maintained by CalTrust. Included in CalTrust’s investment portfolio are: United States Treasury Notes, Bills, Bonds or Certificates of Indebtedness; registered state warrants or treasury notes or bonds; California local agency bonds, notes, warrants or other indebtedness; federal agency or United States government-sponsored enterprise obligations; bankers acceptances; commercial paper; negotiable certificates of deposit; repurchase agreements; medium-term notes; money market mutual funds; notes, bonds or other obligation secured by a first priority security interest in securities authorized under Government Code Section 53651; and mortgage passthrough securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, and other asset – backed securities. CalTrust’s Short-Term Fund has a target portfolio duration of 0 to 2 ye ars and CalTrust’s Medium-Term Fund has a target portfolio duration of 1.5 to 3.5 ye ars. At June 30, 2023 the Short-Term Fund investments matured in an average of 317 days and the Medium-Term Fund investments matured in an average of 774 days.
Money market funds and mutual funds are available for withdrawal on demand and as of June 30, 2023 have an average maturity from 12 to 16 days.

E. Investments Authorized by Debt Issues and Lease Agreements Under the terms of the City’s and Authority’s debt issues and lease agreements, the City and Authority are subject to various restrictions in the type, maturity and credit ratings of investments of the unspent proceeds of these issues. These restrictions are generally no more restrictive than those listed above regarding investment of the City’s and Authority’s funds. In addition, some bond indentures authorize investments in guaranteed investment contracts and investment agreements with maturity dates that coincide with the applicable debt maturities. At June 30, 2023, the City and Authority were in compliance with the terms of all these restrictions.
F. Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. Normally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market interest rates. One of the ways the City manages its exposure to interest rate risk is by purchasing a combination of shorter term and longer term investments and by timing cash flows from maturities so that a portion of the portfolio is maturing or coming close to maturity evenly over time as necessary to provide the cash flow and liquidity needed for operations.
Information about the sensitivity of the fair values of the City’s investments (including investments held by bond trustees) to market interest rate fluctuations is provided by the following table that shows the distribution of the City’s investments by maturity or earliest call date:

G. Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investme nt will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. Presented below is the actual rating at June 30, 2023 for each investment type:
H. Custodial Credit Risk
For an investment, custodial credit risk is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty, the City will not be able to recover the value of its in vestments or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. None of the City’s investments were subject to custodial credit risk for the current year.
I. Fair Value Hierarchy
The City categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure fair value of the assets. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in an active market for identical assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observable inputs; and Level 3 inputs are significant unobservable inputs. 425

Historical rental payments from August 2004 to June 30, 2012 totaling $842,877 were applied to the principal balance of the loan as of June 30, 2013. Another provision of the amended agreement provides that upon the sale of any Port property, including Terminal One and Terminal Four, the proceeds from the sale are to be used to repay and reduce the principal balance of the advance. The balance of the advance as of June 30, 2023 is $12,485,370.

Interest Rate Swap and Swaption Agreements
On September 1, 2022, the City issued Series 2022 Bonds in the amount of $154,140,000, and used a portion of the proceeds of the Series 2022 Bonds in the amount of $21,991,660 to pay amounts due to Royal Bank of Canada as a result of the termination of the 2016 Swap Agreement. Upon payment of the Termination Fee, the City will no longer be a party to any interest rate swap agreement.
The City entered into an interest swap agreement in connection with the 2005B-1 Taxable Pension Funding Bonds. The transaction allows the City to create a synthetic fixed rate or a synthetic variable rate on the Bonds, protecting it against increases and decreases in short-term interest rates and fair value. The various risks associated with the swap agreemen ts are disclosed below. For the swap agreement pertaining to the 2005B-2 Taxable Pension Funding Bonds, the disclosure is included below, but the swap agreement does not become effective until August 1, 2023.
On May 13, 2015, Moody’s Investor Services (“Moody’s”) downgraded the City’s issuer rating from “A1” to “Ba1” and the rating on its 1999 Taxable Limited Obligation Pension Bonds from “A2” to “Baa2”. In addition, the City and its Wastewater Enterprise bonds were placed under review for possible downgrades. On August 4, 2015, Moody’s further downgraded the City’s issuer rating from “Ba2” to “Ba1” and its rating on the City’s Taxable Pension Obligation Bonds and 1999 Taxable Limited Obligation Pension Bonds (“POB’s) from “Baa2”. In addition, Moody’s downgraded its rating on the City’s Wastewater Revenue Bonds, Series 2006A to “Baa2” from “A2”.

Moody’s downgrade of the City’s issuer rating to “Ba1” resulted in allowing the counterparty, JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA (“JPM”) to declare an Additional Termination Event (ATE) with the interest rate swaps the City entered in conjunction with the 2005 Taxable POBs (2007 Swaps). This means that JPM could exercise a right to terminate the 2007 Swaps and demand immediate payment of an approximately $31.5 million settlement amount that represented the present value of the City’s expected future performance obligations under the 2007 Swaps at the time of the ATE. The City entered into a restructuring of certain of its obligations through the issuance by the Richmond Joint Powers Financing Authority of Lease Revenue Bonds Series 2016A (tax-exempt) to fund the cost of terminating the Civic Center Swaps relating to the Richmond Joint Powers Financing Authority Se ries 2009 Civic Center Lease Revenue Bonds held by Royal Bank of Canada (RBC). RBC simultaneously entered into a novation of the 2007 Swaps with JPM. By terminating the Civic Center Swaps, the City reduced RBC’s credit exposure to the City sufficiently to allow RBC to accept the additional cr edit exposure associated with stepping into JPM’s position in the 2007 swaps through novation. Contemporaneous with the novation from JPM to RBC, RBC and the City amended and restated the 2007 Swaps, including eliminating the existence of the ATE by removing reference to a Moody’s rating in the ATE provisions, reducing the Standard & Poor’s rating threshold for a future ATE to BBB- from BBB and pr oviding a mandatory early termination of the 2007 Swaps in 2023. The early termination will require the City to either refund or restructure the 2007 Swap at that date if a termination payment is due at the time. In addition, terminating the Civic Center Swaps eliminated the risk of an ATE with respect to the Civic Center Swaps, which require the City to maintain its Issuer Credit Rating at the current level of BBB+ to avoid an ATE.
The City’s issuer credit rating from S&P was BBB+ as of June 30, 2017. On December 4, 2017, the City received an updated issuer credit rating from S&P up grading the previous BBB+ issuer credit rating to an A- issuer credit rating.

B. Contingency Reserve Policy
In fiscal year 2023, the City Council updated the fu nd balance policy to require the City to maintain a year-end contingency reserve balance of a minimum of 21% of the next year’s budgeted General Fund expenditures including transfer out. This is the minimum needed to maintain the City’s creditworthiness and to adequately provide for economic and legislative uncertainties, cash flow needs and contingencies.
A policy based upon percentage assures that the reserve will remain a prudent cushion as the City’s budgets grow over time.
City Council approval is required before any cash can be withdrawn from the reserve fund. The Council shall have the discretion to use the reserve for one-time emergencies only and not to be used for ongoing expenditures. At the time of City Council approval of any use of reserves, a stabilization policy laying out the plans for restoration of reserves must be simultaneously put in place and approved by City Council.
The City’s cash reserve as of June 30, 2023, which is a component of unassigned fund balance of the General Fund, is $55,196,962, which is approximately 24.49% of fiscal year 2023-24 budgeted General Fund expenditures including transfers out. As the City experiences net revenue gains in future years, the reserve balance must continue to be maintained at a minimum of 21% of tota l expenditures, following the stabilization policy, in order to allow the City to build up its capacity to handle future short term economic downturns or emergencies with minimal to no impact to City services.
C. Deficit Fund Balances and Accumulated Deficits
At June 30, 2023, the following funds had deficit fu nd balance or deficit net position, which will be eliminated by future revenues:
D. Restatement of Net Position
During fiscal year 2023, the City continued to reconcile the activities of the Richmond Housing Authority.

A. California Public Employees’ Retirement System Pension Plans, Continued I. General Information about the CalPERS Pension Plan, Continued Beginning in fiscal year 2016, CalPERS collects employ er contributions for each Plan as a percentage of payroll for the normal cost portion as noted in the rates above and as a dollar amount for contributions toward the unfunded liability (UAL). The dollar amounts are billed on a monthly basis or can be prepaid in advance before July 31
st to receive a savings of approximately 3%. In fiscal year 2022, the City started to prepay the unfunded liability on an annual basis. The City’s required contributions for the unfunded liability in the Miscellaneous and Safety Plans were $10,923,369 and $17,310,526 respectively, as noted in the tables above.
Employees Covered – As of the June 30, 2021 actuarial valuation date and the June 30, 2022 measurement date, the following employees were covered by the benefit terms for each Plan:
As of June 30, 2023, the City had 434 active employees in the Miscellaneous Plan and 186 active employees in the Safety Plan.
Contributions – Section 20814(c) of the California Public Em ployees’ Retirement Law requires that the employer contribution rates for all public employers be determined on an annual basis by the actuary and shall be effective on the July 1 following notice of a change in the rate. Funding contributions for both Plans are determined annually on an actuarial b a s i s a s o f J u n e 3 0 b y C a l P E R S . T h e a c t u a r i a l l y determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to finance the costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to fi nance any unfunded accrued liability. The City is required to contribute the difference between the ac tuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees.
Contributions for the measurement period were $14,802,460 for the Miscellaneous Plan and $21,911,673 for the Safety Plan.
II. Net Pension Liability
The City’s net pension liability for each Plan is meas ured as the total pension liability, less the pension plan’s fiduciary net position. The net pension liability of each Plan is measured as of June 30, 2022, using an annual actuarial valuation as of June 30, 202 1 using standard update procedures. A summary of principal assumptions and methods used to determine the net pension liability is shown below. 479

Actuarial Assumptions – For the measurement period ended June 30, 2022, the total pension liabilities were determined by the June 30, 2021 total pension liability. The June 30, 2022 total pension liabilities were based on the following actuarial methods and assumptions:
The underlying mortality assumptions and all other actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2021 valuation were based on the results of 2021 actuarial experience study for the period 2001 to 2019. Further details of the Experience Study can be found on the CalPERS website.
Discount Rate – The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability for each Plan was 6.90%.
The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate for each Plan assumed that contributions from all plan members in the Public Employees Reti rement Fund (PERF) will be made at the current member contribution rates and that contributions fr om employers will be made at statutorily required rates, actuarially determ i n e d . B a s e d o n t h o s e a s s u m p t i o n s , e a c h P l a n ’ s f i d u c i a r y n e t p o s i t i o n w a s projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members for all plans in the PERF. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability for each Plan.
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building- block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. 480

In determining the long-term expected rate of return, CalPERS took into account both short-term and long-term market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund cash flows. Such cash flows were developed assuming that both members and employers will make their required contributions on time and as scheduled in all future years. Using historical returns of all the funds’ asset classes, expected compound (geometric) returns were calculated over the short-term (first 10 years) and the long-term (11+ years) using a building-block approach. Using the expected nominal returns for both short-term and long- term, the present value of benefits was calculated for each fund. The expected rate of return was set by calculating the single equivalent expected return that arrived at the same present value of benefits for cash flows as the one calculated using both short-term and long-term returns. The expected rate of return was then set equivalent to the single equivalent rate calculated above and adjusted to account for assumed administrative expenses.
The table below reflects the long-term expected real rate of return by asset class. The rate of return was calculated using the capital market assumptions ap plied to determine the discount rate and asset allocation. These geometric rates of return are net of administrative expenses. 481

IV. Pension Funding Policy & Section 115 Trust
In an effort to reduce Unfunded Actuarially Accrued Li abilities of the City’s pension plan, the City Council approved to establish a 115 Trust account on July 19, 2022. On June 27, 2023, the City adopted a Pension funding policy to place 10 percent of each year-end operating surplus (Total Actual Revenues minus Total Actual Expenditures, including Transfers In and Transfer s Out) in the General Fund in excess of the City’s Cash Reserve Policy into the Trust. The primary object ives of the policy are to: 1)Address the increasing annual employer required UAL contributions due to variance in actual experience versus CalPERS actuarial assumptions including investment returns. 2)Prefunding the Trust Fund account can help the City improve its UAL funding ratio faster. 3)Provide budgetary flexibility during challenging budget years or to “smooth” payment spikes that could cause financial stress on the City. 484

I. Plan Descriptions and Funding Policies
The City administers three single-employer pension plans which are funded entirely by City contributions. These are the General Pension Plan, Police and Firemen’s Pension Plan, and Garfield Pension Plan (collectively, the “Plans”). The General Pension Plan, a defined benefit pension plan, covers three former City employees (or their beneficiaries) not covered by CalPERS, all of whom have retired.
The Police and Firemen’s Pension Plan, a defined benefit pension plan, covers twelve retired police and fire personnel (or their beneficiaries) employed prior to October 1964. The Garfield Pension Plan is a defined benefit pension plan established for a reti red police chief. The Plans provide retirement, disability, and death benefits based on the employee’s years of service, age and final compensation.
Benefit provisions for the Plans are established by City Ordinance. No separate financial statements are issued for the Plans.
The City established the Secured Pension Override Special Revenue Fund to which proceeds of a special incremental property tax levy voted by the citizens of the City of Richmond are credited for the payment of benefits under the City’s pension plans. The incremental property tax revenue received for the year ended June 30, 2023 was $26,010,577 and the Ci ty used the funds to pay General Pension Plan contributions of $820.
Police and Firemen’s Pension Plan – Funding for the Plan is provided from the Secured Pension Override Special Revenue Fund. Employees were vested after five years of service. Members of the Plan are allowed normal retirement benefits after 25 or more continuous years of service. The City is required under its charter to contribute the remaining amounts necessary to fund the Plan using the entry age- normal actuarial method as specified by Ordinance. Management of the Plan is vested in the Pension Board which consists of seven members: the Mayor, City Manager, Director of Finance, two members appointed by the Mayor, with the concurrence of four members of the City Council, each of whom shall be and remain a resident of the City in order to be a member of the Board and serve a term of five years, one representative of the Police Department and one representative of the Fire Department. The Plan is closed to new members. Retirement benefits for Plan members are calculated as one-half of the annual salary attached to the rank or position held by th e retiree one year prior to the date of retirement.
Surviving spouses receive 100% of the retiree’s pension. Benefit terms provide for annual cost-of-living adjustments to each member’s retirement allowance subsequent to the member’s retirement date. The annual adjustments are an increase each year for change s in the salary attached to the retiree’s rank in the year before retirement.

General Pension Plan – Retirement and other benefits are paid from the assets of the Plan and from related investment earnings. The City is required under its charter to contribute the remaining amounts necessary to fund the Plan using the entry age-normal actuarial method as specified by Ordinance.
Management of the Plan is vested in the General Pension Board which consists of seven members: the Mayor, City Manager, Director of Finance, two members appointed by the Mayor, with the concurrence of five members of the City Council, each of whom shall be and remain a resident of the City in order to be a member of the Board and serve a term of five years, and two members to be elected every five years by secret ballot vote of the rank and file of Plan employees and of Plan employees who have retired and are receiving pensions from the Plan. Four members of the General Pension Board are to be concurred in by four members.
The Plan is closed to new members. Retirement benefi ts for Plan members are calculated as one-half of the average annual salary attached to the position held by the retiree during the three years prior to the date of retirement. Surviving spouses receive 100% of the retiree’s pension. Benefit terms provide for annual cost-of-living adjustments to each member’s retirement allowance subsequent to the member’s retirement date. The annual adjustments are an automatic increase of 2% per year. City Council may grant additional increases of up to 3% per year to bring the total increase in a given year to 5%.
Garfield Pension Plan – Retirement and other benefits are paid from the assets of the Plan and from related investment earnings. Plan provisions ha ve been established and may be amended upon agreement between the City and Mr. Garfield. Management of the Plan is vested in the City Council.
Mr. Garfield’s pension and any continuation to his sp ouse receive the same cost-of-living increases as the City’s police employees covered by CalPERS (CalPERS cost-of-living increases include a 2% per year increase, subject to CPI increase constraints, an d purchasing power protection through the CalPERS Purchasing Power Protection Allowance). Mr. Garfield’s surviving spouse receives 50% of the retiree’s pension. As of June 30, 2023, Mr. Garfield’s spouse passed away. As such, remaining Plan assets reverted back to the City and there is no pension liability as of the end of the measurement year.
II. Significant Accounting Policies
City contributions for all plans are recognized when due and the City has made a formal commitment to provide contributions. Benefit payments and refunds are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Administrative costs for all plans, except the investment management fees of the Police and Fireman’s Pension Plan, are paid by the City’s General Fund. The investment management fees are financed through inve stment earnings. Assets are valued at fair value based on available market information obtained from independent sources. 486

III. Pension Plan Assets
At June 30, 2023 the pension plans reported assets av ailable for benefits as shown below. For actuarial purposes, the value of the Plans’ assets were determined to be fair value.
The Wellington Trust Company Fund investments, classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, are valued using the market approach, which uses pric es and other information generated from market transactions, which typically includes securities priced with unadjusted market quotes, evaluated bids, market multiples, and trade information, and also ge nerally includes short term securities valued at a m o r t i z e d c o s t w h i c h a p p r o x i m a t e s m a r k e t v a l u e . T h e C i t y o f R i c h m o n d I n v e s t m e n t P o o l a n d t h e California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) are not subject to the fair value hierarchy. Fair value is defined as the quoted market value on the last trading day of the period.
Investment Policies
The General Pension and Police and Firemen’s Pension Pl a n s ’ p o l i c i e s i n r e g a r d t o t h e a l l o c a t i o n o f invested assets is established and may be amended by Resolution of the respective Boards. The Plans allow investments in the following:
(a) In investments which are authorized by General law for savings banks. (b) In investments other than those specified in su bdivision (a) hereof, including, but not limited to, corporate bonds and securities, common stocks, preferred stocks, investments in real estate and investment trusts, provided that the total amount invested pursuant to this subdivision shall not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the total amount of funds invest ed pursuant to this section, and provided further that the following conditions are met:
(1) Any stocks or other corporate securities, in wh ich funds are invested, except stocks of banks, insurance companies or mutual funds, shall be registered on a national securities exchange as provided by the Federal Securities Exchange Act.
(2) The total amount invested in common and preferre d stocks shall not exceed at cost at the time of purchase twenty-five percent (25%) of the total amount invested pursuant to this section. (3) The total amount invested in the common and preferred stocks of any one company shall not exceed at cost of the time of purchase two percent (2%) of the total amount invested pursuant to this section and shall not exceed five percent (5%) of the outstanding preferred or common stock of that company.

(4) No funds shall be invested in the common stocks of any company unless it has paid cash dividends on such stocks in eight of the ten years immediately preceding its purchase by the Board. (5) No funds shall be invested in the stocks or other securities of any company other than a bank or insurance company unless it has assets of at least one hundred million dollars ($100,000,000), or in the stocks or other securities of a bank or insurance company unless it has assets of at least fifty million dollars ($50,000,000).
(6) The total amount invested in real estate and other than real estate owned by or leased to the City of Richmond, which amount may include land, buildings, land and buildings or real estate loans, shall not exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the total amount invested pursuant to this section and such investments shall be restricted to first trust deeds which are insured by the Federal Housing Administration or which are guaranteed by the Veterans Administration.
The Garfield Pension Plan does not have a separate investment policy, therefore it uses the City’s investment policy.
Interest and Credit Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. Normally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market interest rates. The City invests in equities which may be drawn down as needed, subject to terms of the underlying trust agreement. The investments held in the Pension Trust Funds all mature in less than one year.
Credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. As of June 30, 2023, the investments in the Pension Trust Funds were not rated.
Rate of Return
For the year ended June 30, 2023, the annual money-weighted rate of return on pension plan investments, net of pension plan investment expense, for the Po lice and Firemen’s, General Pension and Garfield Pension Plans was 9.93%, 2.38% and 2.76%, respectively. The money-weighted rate of return expresses investment performance, net of investment expense, adjusted for the changing amounts actually invested.

IV. Net Pension Liability of the Plans
The components of the net pension liability of the City for each of the Plans is the total pension liability, less each Plan’s fiduciary net position.
Actuarial Assumptions. The total pension liability for each plan as of June 30, 2023 was determined based on June 30, 2023 actuarial valuations. The following actuarial assumptions applied to all periods included in the measurement:
Mortality rates were based on the California PERS Mortality Table in its 2021 experience study (based on CalPERS 2000-2019 experience).
Discount Rates. The discount rates used to measure the total pension liability for the Police and Firemen’s Pension Plan, General Pension Plan and Garfield Pension Plan were 5.50%, 3.25%, and N/A, respectively, as of June 30, 2023 and 3.50%, 1.00%, and 1.00%, respectively, as of June 2022.
For the Police and Firemen’s Pension Plan, based on the 5 previous years the City has on average contributed 97% of the Actuarially Determined Contribution (ADC). A sufficiency test was performed including: (1) expected benefit payments for all fu ture years; (2) assuming that 96% of the ADC is contributed to the Plan in future years; (3) assuming that future contribution losses are amortized according to the Plan’s funding policy; (4) using the Plan’s assumed investment return before the projected asset depletion (if any); and (5) using a 20-year AA tax-exempt general obligation municipal bond index rate of 2.45% (using as a municipal bond rate source the Fidelity 20-Year General Obligation AA Municipal Bond Index as of June 30, 2023) after the projected asset depletion. Based on these parameters, plan assets are projected to be sufficient to pay all future benefits until a de minimis amount of estimated future benefits remain. Therefore, the Plan’s long-term expected rate of return of 5.50% was used as the discount rate.

Based on the 5 previous years the City has on average contributed 78% and 113% of the Actuarially Determined Contribution (ADC) for the General Pens ion Plan and Garfield Pension Plan, respectively.
A sufficiency test was performed including: (1) expe cted benefit payments for all future years; (2) assuming that 74% of the ADC is contributed to the General Pension Plan and 100% of the ADC is contributed to the Garfield Pension Plan in future years; (3) assuming that future contribution losses are amortized according to the Plans’ funding policies; (4) using the Plans’ assumed investment return before the projected asset depletion (if any); and (5) using a 20-year AA tax-exempt general obligation municipal bond index rate of 2.45% (using as a municipal bond rate source the Fidelity 20-Year General Obligation AA Municipal Bond Index as of June 30, 2023) after the projected asset depletion. Based on these parameters, each of the Plan’s assets are projected to be sufficient to pay all future benefits until a de minimis amount of estimated future benefits remain. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return of
3.25% was used as the discount rate for each of these Plans.
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined for each Plan using a building-block method in which best-estimates of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These asset class estimates are combined to produce the portfolio long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the current asset allocation percentage (or target allocation, if available) and by adding expected in flation (2.25%). All results are then rounded to the nearest quarter percentage point.
The best-estimate of expected future real rates of return were developed by aggregating data from several published capital market assumption surveys and deriving a single best-estimate based on the average survey values. These capital market assumptions reflec t both historical market experience as well as diverse views regarding anticipated future returns. The expected inflation assumption was developed based on an analysis of historical experience blen ded with forward-looking ex pectations available in market data.

The City pays a portion of the CalPERS premiums for retirees and their dependents that vary by employment classification. In addition, the following eligibility rules and contribution requirements apply for future retirees, followed by current retirees. The City has two plans:
City OPEB Plan
The City is the Plan administrator, while PARS admi nisters the investment trust. The City OPEB Plan does not issue separate financial statements. PARS issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required suppleme ntary information. That report may be obtained from Public Agency Retirement Services, 4350 Von Karman Avenue, Suite 100, Newport Beach, CA, 92660.
RPOA OPEB Plan
The City of Richmond’s Police Officers Association (RPOA) Plan was established during fiscal year 2019 and the RPOA OPEB Plan joined the California Employers’ Retiree Benefit Trust (CERBT), an agent multiple-employer plan administered by CALPERS, co nsisting of an aggregation of single- employer plans. RPOA members who were actively employed as of January 1, 2017 transferred from the City OPEB Plan to the RPOA OPEB Plan. The CERBT issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary info rmation.

City OPEB Plan
Funding Policy – During the year ended June 30, 20 08, the City joined the Public Agencies Post- Retirement Health Care Defined Benefit Plan, an agen t multiple employer trust administered by Public Agency Retirement Services (PARS). The balance in the City’s PARS trust account as of June 30, 2023 was $41,321,443.
The City’s policy is to partially prefund these benefits by accumulating assets with PARS discussed above along with making pay-as-you-go payments pursuant to Resolution No. 52-06 of June 27, 2006. In an effort to pay down the unfunded liability, in January 2022, the City adopted funding policy that requires the City to contribute 50 percent of any one-time General Fund revenues and 50 percent of year-end General Fund surplus in excess of the City’s minimum required reserve level into the 115. Per the adopted policy, the City made a onetime contribution from the FY2022 year surplus into the 115 trust accounts totaling $6,102,459 in Fiscal Year 2023. In June 2023, the City updated the funding policy for additional contributions. Per the current policy the City shall place 10 percent of year-end operating surplus in the General Fund more than the City’s Cash Reserve Policy into the Trust accounts. 502

RPOA OPEB Plan
A new Richmond Police Officers Association (RPOA) contract was implemented on January 17, 2017.
The new RPOA plan includes members who were actively employed as of the January 17, 2017 contract date. The RPOA members were transferred from the OPEB Plan to the new RPOA OPEB Plan during fiscal year 2023.
Funding Policy – The RPOA plan has assets designated for OPEB. These assets are invested in California Employers' Retiree Benefit Trust (CERBT) Strategy 2, which is a qualified irrevocable trust. Annual contributions by the City are made on an ad hoc basis as funds are available. Benefit payments are not expected to be made from the trust in the near future. The City currently pays the annual retiree benefit payments using its general assets plus the annual active member contributions.
The balance in the CERBT trust account was $9,746,155 as of June 30, 2023.
Actuarial Assumptions – The total OPEB liability for each plan was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2020 rolled forward to June 30, 2021 using standard update procedures. The City OPEB plan valuation used the following actuarial assu mptions applied to all periods included in the measurement, unless otherwise specified:

The RPOA OPEB Plan valuation used the following actuarial assumptions applied to all periods included in the measurement, unless otherwise specified:
Discount rate – The discount rate used to measure the total City OPEB liability was 6.00% for the City OPEB Plan and 5.75% for the RPOA OPEB Plan. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that City contributions will be made at rates equal to the actuarially determined contribution rates. Based on those assumptions, the City OPEB plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected fu ture benefit payments of current plan members.

Generally accepted accounting principles require that the liability discount rate be the single rate that reflects the following:
A. The long-term expected rate of return on City OPEB plan investments that are expected to be used to finance the payment of benefits, to the extent that (1) the City OPEB plan’s fiduciary net position is projected to be sufficient to make pr ojected benefit payments and (2) City OPEB plan assets are expected to be invested using a strategy to achieve that return; and Actuarial Assumptions

14. DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN
City employees may defer a portion of their compensation under a City sponsored deferred compensation plan created in accordance with Internal Revenue Co de Section 457. Under this plan, participants are not taxed on the deferred portion of their compensation un til distributed to them; distributions may be made only at termination, retirement, death or in an emergency as defined by the plan.
The laws governing deferred compensation plan assets require plan assets to be held by a Trust for the exclusive benefit of plan participants and their beneficiaries. Since the assets held under this plan are not the City’s property and are not subject to claims by general creditors of the City, they have been excluded from these financial statements.
15. RISK MANAGEMENT
The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; general liability; errors and omissions; injuries to employees; natural disasters; and inverse condemnation. The City began self-insuring its workers’ compensation in 1976. In July 2009 the City joined the California Joint Powers Risk Management Authority (CJPRMA) for general liab ility and employment practices coverage. In April 2009 the City joined the California State Association of Counties Excess Insurance Authority (CSAC EIA) for worker’s compensation insurance. The City has chosen to establish a risk financing internal service fund where assets are accumulated for claim settlements and expenses associated with the above risks of loss up to certain limits.

Housing Authority Insurance Group
The Housing Authority is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts: theft, damage, and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; injuries to employees and natural disaster. The Authority joined together with other entities and participates in the Housing Authority Insurance Group, a public entity risk pool currently operating as a common risk management and insurance program for its member entities. The purpose of the Housing Authority Insurance Group is to spread the adverse effects of losses among the member entities and to purchase excess insurance as a group, thereby reducing its cost.
The Authority pays annual premiums to Housing Au thority Insurance Group for its property damage insurance as follows:
All of the Housing Authority properties are included in the general liability coverage under the CJPRMA program.
Liability for Self-Insured Claims
The City records a liability to reflect an actuarial estimate of ultimate uninsured losses for both general liability claims (including property damage claims ) and workers’ compensation claims. The estimated liability for workers’ compensation claims and general liability claims is based on case reserves and include amounts for claims incurred but not reported (IBNR), and is recorded in the Insurance Reserves Internal Service Fund. At June 30, 2023, the estimated claims pa yable of $49,681,686 consisting of reserves for both reported and IBNR losses, as well as allocated loss adjustment expenses, have been recorded in the Insurance Reserves Internal Service Fund. The claims payable are reported at their present value using expected future investment yield assumptions of 3% and an 80% confidence level. The undiscounted claims totaled $53,444,000 at June 30, 2023. Changes in the claims liabilities for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:

17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
A. Construction Commitments
The City’s future commitments under construction and other projects totaled approximately $138.2 million at June 30, 2023 for various projects.
B. Litigation
The City is involved in various claims and litigation resulting from its normal operations. The ultimate outcome of these matters is not presently determinable. In City management’s opinion these matters will not have a significant adverse effect on the City’s or RHA Properties’ financial position, except for what is noted below:
In March 2012, a developer and Native American Tribe (collectively, “Developer”) filed a complaint in federal court against the United States of America, two individuals, and the City contending breach of contract related to a Land Disposition Agreement (LDA) between the Developer and the City for the development of Point Molate for a specific use. Th e Developer seeks damages of $30 million as well as lost profits of over $750 million. The City disput es the allegations and contends that the LDA did not commit the Developer or the City to develop the property for the specific use and that the Developer’s right to move forward with the development was subject to various federal approvals. The City received a favorable judgement on the matter, but an appeal by the Developer resulted in the Ninth Circuit reversing the decision, concluding the plaintiffs sh ould be given another opportunity to amend their complaint. The plaintiffs filed an amended compla int and the City answered, denying the plaintiffs’ allegations and asserting affirmative defenses and counterclaims. In April 2018, the City again obtained judgement in the matter under which the City will pay no monetary damages to the Developer. Under the terms of the judgment, amended in August 2019, future proceeds from the sale of the property will be shared equally between the City and the Developer.
Under the amended judgment, the City was required to and did engage a new developer for Point Molate. After the City approved the CEQA-required EIR for development, environmental rights groups challenged and appealed the certification of EIR. In November 2023, the appellate court set aside the EIR and all “project related approvals” impacting two pending actions.
First, the federal court continues to oversee the 2012 lawsuit involving the Developer. The Developer claims after the CEQA ruling that the City is obligated to cure the EIR deficiencies in order to maximize the value of the property (now being marketed and sold by the Developer under the amended judgment).
The City denies the claim, however, if an application is filed in federal court, the court could find a breach of implied covenant and the City may be negatively impacted. However, any such impact cannot be determined at this time.
Second, the new developer that the City secured under the amended judgment filed a separate legal action against the City, asserting the City interfered with the Point Molate project and development.
While the subject contracts were set aside based on the CEQA ruling, and therefore the agreements at issue were invalidated, the new developer continues to press litigation claiming over $70 million in damages which the City denies. The City no longer owns the property; the Developer above obtained title in 2022 under the amended judgment. The City may be negatively impacted should the court rule in favor of the new developer in the second suit, however, any such impact cannot be determined at this time, especially given the CEQA ruling.

C. Grant Programs
The City participates in several federal and State grant programs. These programs are subject to further examination by the grantors and the amount, if any, of expenditures which may be disallowed by the granting agencies cannot be determined at this time, except as noted under Grant Programs – Disallowed Costs below.
D. Housing Authority – Easter Hill Project
The Authority participates in a number of federally assisted grant programs, principal of which are the Low Income Public Housing Program and the HOPE VI Re vitalization Grant. It is possible that at some future date, it may be determined that the Authority is not in compliance with applicable grant requirements. The amounts, if any, of expenditures which may be disallowed by the granting agencies cannot be determined at this time, although the Au thority does not expect such disallowed amounts, if any, to materially affect the financial statements.
In June 2000, the Richmond Housing Authority received a $35 million grant (HOPE VI Grant) from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) for the revitalization of the former Easter Hill Public Housing Project. The original Easter Hill site, owned by the Richmond Housing Authority, included 300 units on 21 acres in the Cortez/Stege neighborhood of Richmond.
The California Tax Credit Committee, City of Richmond, Bank of America, Silicon Valley, Federal Home Loan Bank, California Housing Finance Agency, the Richmond Housing Authority along with the $35 million dollar HUD grant financed this $120 million revitalization effort. Physical costs are estimated to be approximately $108 million and life services, relo cation, acquisition, administrative and other costs are estimated to be approximately $12 million. The physical development includes approximately 320 rental and homeownership units to replace the 300 rental units originally at the site and 273 remaining units at the time of grant approval. Amenities at the revitalized site include a pool and a 5,000 square feet community room with facilities for an after school program, computer center, gymnasium and conference room.
In addition, pursuant to the same agreement, the Authority is entitled to receive reimbursement for certain costs it has incurred in development of thes e projects. Upon completion of the project, the Authority recorded $14,276,909, representing reimbursement from the developer which had been recorded in the accompanying financial statements as due from developer. The balance outstanding as of June 30, 2023 is $10,221,743.
In 2002, the Authority chose the development team of McCormack Baron Salazar, Inc. and Em Johnson Interest, Inc. to develop the site. Em Johnson Interest has developed the 82 homeownership units affordable to low, moderate and market rate buyers. McCormack Baron was charged with the development of 300 rental units, affordable to ho useholds 60% or below the area median income for Contra Costa County.

Thus far, all new construction rental units at the former Easter Hill site have been developed. Thirty-six rehab rental units at the site have been constructed. The remaining 202 rental units at the site have been leased. Similarly, all 82 homeownership units at the former Easter Hill and Cortez sites have been constructed. All homeownership units have been sold.
E. Point Molate – Pollution Remediation
In September 2008, the City entered into an Early Transfer Cooperative Agreement (ETCA) with the United States Department of the Navy the (Navy) to facilitate the transfer of 41 acres of property that was formerly the Naval Fuel Depot Point Molate (P oint Molate). The ETCA identifies certain known pollution issues with the property, and the Navy is the responsible party. However, under the provisions of the ETCA, the Navy advanced $28 million to the City representing the estimated cost of cleanup, and the City committed to manage the project. Any pollution found that was not caused by the Navy’s use of the land is to be paid by the City, however, as of June 30, 2023, no additional pollution has been identified.
The City also entered into an agreement in September 2008 with a Developer to sell approximately 134 acres of land located on Point Molate along with the 41 acres of which the Navy is to transfer to the City.
The Developer is to complete the cleanup on behalf of the City in accordance with the requirements of the ETCA. The City committed to pass-through the funds received from the Navy to the Developer.
In April 2010, the City and Developer entered into an agreement to establish a fiscal agent escrow account to maintain the funds held for the remediation of Po int Molate. The funds advanced by the Navy are to be held in escrow with a fiscal agent and the agent is responsible for disbursing funds to the Developer as costs are incurred. The terms of the agreement are ef fective until a certificate of completion is issued for the remediation of the property.
Under the terms of the agreements with the Navy and the Developer, the City does not retain responsibility for the cleanup of the known pollution. The City is merely acting as a pass-thru of the grant funds from the Navy to the Developer and the activities for the project are reported in the Pt. Molate Private-Purpose Trust Fund.

F. Other – Major Taxpayer
In fiscal year 2009, a major business license taxpayer filed a complaint challenging the legality of Measure T, a voter initiative that took ef fect on January 1, 2009. Measure T amended the City’s business license tax calculation for manufacturers. Although the City believed Measure T to be lawful, the court ruled on December 17, 2009 that the tax was unconstitutional. The court ruled in favor of the business license taxpayer awarding a refund of the $20.5 million Measure T taxes paid. The City filed an appeal, however in May 2010 the taxpayer and the City entered into a settlement agreement in order to achieve certainty in the tax revenue that the City will receive from the taxpayer over the next 15 years. The agreement provides for annual payments from the taxpayer rangin g from $4 million to $13 million starting July 1, 2011, with payments totaling $114 million. In addition, the agreement incorporated the prior settlement of a dispute over fiscal year 2006, 2007 and 2008 utility user’s taxes totaling $28 million that was paid in four installments beginning in fiscal year 2009. Payments totaling $106 million were received under the settlement agreements in fiscal years 2011 through 2023.
In fiscal year 2015, the City entered into an Environmental Community Investment Agreement (ECIA) with the same taxpayer that provides for funding to the City and other community agencies totaling $80 million over the next ten years. During fiscal year 2023, the City received $6 million that is restricted for use on pre-approved projects, and the City has received $5 million of Guaranteed Payments and $71 million of Contingent Payments to date.
G. Housing Authority Rental Assistance Demonstration
RHA Rental Assistance Demonstration (“RAD”) Program conversion of the Friendship Manor and Triangle Court public housing sites occurred during the 2016 calendar year (includes both the 2015 and 2016 fiscal years). The RAD project consists of 156 units of Public Housing will that were converted to non-profit ownership with Section 8-Project Based Voucher rental subsidy on the two separate properties; all 156 units, except for three units (two are reserved for onsite managers and one for a manager's office), will be used to house low-income residents.
On October 8, 2015, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) issued and executed the RAD Conversion Commitment (RCC) which represents the agreed upon and approved terms of the RAD conversion transaction.
On November 18, 2015, California Tax Credit Alloca tion Committee made a preliminary reservation of federal tax credits in the amount of $1,228,999 accommodated upon executing Tax-Exempt Bond Project to raise funding in the amount of $36.7 million, the approximate estimated cost of the RAD project; of which $16.5 million shall be provided by a third-party Tax Credit investor.
The Authority has partnered with the John Stewart Company and The Richman Group to form a Limited Partnership, RHA RAD Housing Partners L.P., that will complete the conversion, manage the property and own the buildings. The Authority will relinquish the land via a long term ground lease. 518

G. Housing Authority Rental Assistance Demonstration, Continued In furtherance of the finances provided by the Autho rity, the City of Richmond loaned $5.4 million to RHA RAD Housing Partners L.P. that will be repaid in 55 years and accrues interest at a rate of 1%. The loan was initially signed with RHA Housing Corporation and then it was transferred and reassigned to RHA RAD Housing Partners L.P., as discussed in Note 4.
After the property is placed in service and receives approval of the 8609 documents from the State of California, the Authority will split a developer fee of $2.5 million with its general partner John Stewart Company (70%/30%). The project was converted to permanent financing on June 6, 2019.
RHA RAD Housing Partners L.P. will also receive $732,557 in Public Housing and Capital Improvement funds throughout the January 1, 2016 – December 31, 2016 calendar year to cover the RAD Housing Assistance Program (HAP) Voucher commitments of subsidy for the low income housing units at the two developments. The terms of this requirement are consistent with Notice 2012-32 of the Rental Assistance Demonstration program which requires RAD conversions that close after November 30th of the calendar year to be funded out of Public Housing and Capital Fund Programs until the next calendar year, at which time the Developments will be funded with Section 8 Housing Choice RAD Vouchers.
In a transaction related to the RAD project during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, the Richmond Housing Authority transferred capital assets to RHA RAD LLC, which then sold the capital assets to RHA RAD Housing Partners LP with a carrying value of $14,358,255 in return for two loans receivable in the amounts of $8,891,500 and $5,618,500. These loans are to be repaid in 55 years and bear annual interest rates of 3.5%.
H. Marina Bay – Pollution Remediation
The Successor Agency owned a group of land tracts collectively referenced as the “Nine Deed Restricted Properties.” The Successor Agency was named as a responsible party at these sites under a Voluntary Cleanup Agreement with the State Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) to conduct pollution monitoring and remediation. However, the Succes sor Agency received approval from the DOF to transfer
the properties and their maintenance to the City on June 30, 2016. Therefore, the City is now the responsible party at the sites. These nine properties sit within the larger Marina Bay development site. A Remediation Action Plan (RAP) was prepared for Marina Bay in 1993 and included references to each of the Deed Restricted Properties. Eight of the nine deed restricted properties are subject to an Operations & Maintenance (O&M) Plan. The O&M Plans require annual inspections of the cap material and reporting of the findings to DTSC. The O&M Plans also require that a five-year review report be prepared and submitted to DTSC. The five-year review reports describe the inspection and maintenance activities that were performed over the previous five years. The annual inspection costs are estimated at $13,500, with the five year review estimated at $40,000 (this cost includes revising a previously submitted work plan, conducting the review, and preparing the report). The monitoring costs over a five year period are estimated at $125,500. Additionally, costs for environmental consultation to address DTSC concerns at the nine deed the nine deed restricted properties are estimated at $15,000 annually. 519

H. Marina Bay – Pollution Remediation, Continued
The RAP was subsequently amended in 2008 to address Area T, one of the Nine Deed Restricted Properties. The amended RAP subjects the site to groundwater sampling and analysis. The approximate annual costs for the existing groundwater sampling and analysis program is approximately $26,000. The known pollution at this site are petroleum hydrocarbons dissolved in groundwater. Active remediation was conducted from September 2008 through June 2 020 by the former Redevelopment Agency and the Successor Agency and the active remediation has been successful at removing a layer of petroleum hydrocarbons on the groundwater. However, the groundwater impacted with dissolved petroleum hydrocarbons is located in close proximity to the Ma rina Bay harbor. It is anticipated that DTSC will request that the Successor Agency submit a work plan describing the methods to petroleum hydrocarbons at Area T. Groundwater impacted by dissolved petroleum hydrocarbons is anticipated to be required by DTSC. The Successor Agency requested that its consultant prepare a feasibility study and cost analysis to conduct such remediation. The preliminary cost estimate to implement the groundwater remediation program is estimated at $120,000. A plan to maintain the cap on Area T will be prepared and the cost for this plan is $7,500. This preliminar y estimate has not been accrued as a liability in the City’s Statement of Net Position. This estimate is also subject to change from price increases or reductions, technology, and changes in applicable laws or regulations.
A Covenant to Restrict Use of Property for Area FM, also one of the Nine Deed Restricted Properties, was recorded on March 21, 2005. As described in the deed restriction, the remedial alternative for Area FM includes installing and maintaining a temporary 1-foot-thick soil cap over the property as an interim measure; the final cap will consist of hardscape including commercial buildings, roadways, and parking areas. The deed restriction also requires the preparation of an O&M Plan. According to a DTSC- approved Remedial Design and Implementation Plan (RDIP) for Area FM, the proposed permanent cap will be implemented during site redevelopment activities and will consist of building foundations and slabs, paved walkways and parking areas, landscaping and other features constructed over the site. Site redevelopment has yet to occur, the interim temp orary cap has not been implemented, and the O&M Plan has yet to be prepared for Area FM. DTSC is requiring the City to construct the temporary cap on Area FM. The City is preparing to construct a te mporary asphalt cap to minimize surface water runoff and reduce routine maintenance and prepared a Work Plan Amendment for Construction of Temporary Asphalt Cap. Upon approval by DTSC, the City will in stall the temporary cap. The cost to prepare the planning documents, conduct observation, documentation, and reporting of the cap installation, as well as preparation of an O&M Plan is $96,200. The esti mate cost to construct the temporary cap can’t be made.

Encumbrances outstanding at year-end are recorded as restricted, committed or assigned fund balance, depending on the classification of the resources to be used to li quidate the encumbrance, since they do not constitute expenditures or liabilities. Outstanding encumbrances at year-end are automatically reappropriated for the following year. Unencumbered and unexpended appropriations lapse at year-end. Encumbrances outstanding as of June 30, 2023 were as listed below: 521 City of Richmond

18. REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY DISSOLUTION AND SUCCESSOR AGENCY ACTIVITIES A. Redevelopment Dissolution
In an effort to balance its budget, the State of California adopted ABx1 26 on June 28, 2011, amended by AB1484 on June 27, 2012, which suspended all new redevelopment activities except for limited specified activities as of that date and dissolved redevelopment agencies on January 31, 2012.
The suspension provisions prohibit all redevelopment agencies from a wide range of activities, including incurring new indebtedness or obligations, entering into or modifying agreements or contracts, acquiring or disposing of real property, taking actions to adopt or amend redevelopment plans and other similar actions, except actions required by law or to carry out existing enforceable obligations, as defined in ABx1
26. ABx1 26 and AB1484 created three regulatory authorities, the Successor Agency Oversight Board, State Controller and Department of Finance (DOF), to review former Agency’s asset transfers, obligation payments and wind down activities. ABx1 26 specif ically directs the State Controller to review the activities of all redevelopment agencies to determin e whether an asset transfer between an agency and any public agency occurred on or after January 1, 2011. If an asset transfer did occur and the public agency that received the asset is not contractually committed to a third party for the expenditure or encumbrance of the asset, the legislation purports to require the State Controller to order the asset returned to the Redevelopment Agency or, on or af ter February 1, 2012, to the Successor Agency. The State Controller’s Office completed its asset transfer review in November 2013 and the State ordered the return of certain assets to the Successor Agency to the Redevelopment Agency. The City complied with certain aspects of the State’s order during fiscal year 2013 by returning applicable capital assets to the Successor Agency and the Oversight Board retroactively approved other prior transfers to the City and the State has indicated that no further action is nece ssary. The State also ordered the return of assets previously transferred to the City as Housing Successor totaling $16,460,848, because the transfer of the housing assets had not been approved by the Oversight Board. The Oversight Board adopted a Resolution on February 25, 2014 retroactively ap proving the transfer of the loans to the Housing Successor.
Effective January 31, 2012, the Redevelopment Ag ency was dissolved. Certain assets of the Redevelopment Agency Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund were distributed to a Housing Successor; and the remaining Redevelopment Agency assets and liabilities were distributed to a Successor Agency.
Under the provisions of AB 1484, the City can elect to become the Housing Successor and retain the housing assets. The City elected to become the Housing Successor and on February 1, 2012, certain housing assets were transferred to the City’s Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund which is included in the Community Development and Loan Programs Special Revenue Fund. The activities of the Housing Successor are reported in the Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund as the City has control of those assets, which may be used in accordance with the low and moderate income housing provisions of California Redevelopment Law.

ABx1 26 requires the establishment of an Oversigh t Board to oversee the activities of the Successor Agency and one was established in April 2012. As of July 1, 2018, Contra Costa County has formed a county-wide Oversight Board to oversee the activiti es of all Successor Agencies within the County, including Richmond. The activities of the Successor Agency are subject to review and approval of the Oversight Board, which is comprised of seven members, including one member of City Council and one former Redevelopment Agency employee appointed by the Mayor.
AB1484 required the Successor Agency to complete two due diligence reviews – one for the low and moderate income housing assets of the Successor Agency (Housing DDR), and a second for all other balances of the Successor Agency (Non-housing DDR) . The due diligence reviews were to calculate the balance of unencumbered balances as of June 30, 2012 available to be remitted to the County for disbursement to taxing entities. The Successor Agency submitted both due diligence reviews to the State Department of Finance for review and approval. The Department of Finance approved the Housing DDR, after making an adjustment, and the Successor Agency remitted the unencumbered balance of $4,067,242 to the County in November 2014. The Department of Finance approved the Non-housing DDR in D ecem ber 20 1 4, a nd no fund s we re re quire d to be remit ted to th e C o unt y. Th e Success or Age ncy received a Finding of Completion on December 9, 2014.
The activities of the Successor Agency are reported in the Successor Agency to the Richmond Community Redevelopment Agency Private-Purpose Trust Fund as the activities are under the control of the Oversight Board. The City provides administrative services to the Successor Agency to wind down the affairs of the former Redevelopment Agency.
Cash and investments of the Successor Agency as of June 30, 2023 are discussed in Note 2 above.

Ford Assembly Building Loan
Under a loan agreement dated November 22, 2004 between the Redevelopment Agency and Ford Point LLC, the Redevelopment Agency agreed to loan $3,000,000 to fund improvements to the Ford Assembly Building, collateralized by a Deed of Trust. After a period of variable interest rates, the loan has converted to a fixed 5% interest rate. Interest and principal payments are due semi-annually through 2025. The loan was paid-off as of June 30, 2023.

In fiscal year 2010 the Agency experienced a significant decline in tax increment revenue. In order to bring debt service in line with current revenues and maintain compliance with the required 1.4:1 tax increment to debt service coverage ratio, the Agency suspended a number of projects originally funded by the 2007A Bonds and applied approximately $36 million of the unspent 2007A proceeds and other available funds along with the proceeds from the issuance of the Subordinate Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds, Series 2010A to refund the outstanding balance of the 2007A Bonds. As part of the issuance of the 2010A Bonds, the interest rate swap agreement associated with the 2007A Bonds was amended and restated as discussed with the Series 2010A Bonds below.
On July 12, 2007 the Redevelopment Agency issued Series 2007B Housing Set-Aside Subordinate Tax Allocation Capital Appreciation Bonds in the amount of $9,772,622 at interest rates ranging from 5.57% to 6.40%.

With the dissolution of the Redevelopment Agency discussed above, Tax Increment is no longer distributed, and instead the Successor Agency receives payments from the County’s Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF) that are to be used to fund debt service on the Bonds, with no distinction between housing and non-housing revenues. In addition, under the provisions of the laws dissolving the Redevelopment Agency, the Successor Agency only receives the funds necessary to fulfill its approved obligations. Total prop erty taxes available for distribution to the Successor Agency and other taxing entities for fiscal year 2023 calculated by the County Auditor–Controller were $51,791,076.

A special assessment district has been established in an area of the Agency to provide improvements to properties located in that district. Properties in the district are assessed for the cost of improvements:
these assessments are payable solely by property owners over the term of the debt issued to finance these improvements. The Agency is not legally or morally obligated to pay these debts or be the purchaser of last resort of any foreclosed properties in these special assessment districts, nor is it obligated to advance Agency funds to repay these debts in the event of default.

Accounting Standards Adopted
¾ GASB Statement 91, Conduit Debt Obligations – The objective of this statement is to provide a single method of reporting conduit debt obligations by issuers and eliminate diversity in practice associated with (1) commitments extended by issuers, (2) arrangements associated with conduit debt obligations, and (3) related note disclosures. The requirements of this Statement did not apply to the City for the current fiscal year.
¾ GASB Statement 94, Public-Private and Public-Public Partnerships and Availability Payment Arrangements – The objective of this Statement is to improve financial reporting by addressing issues related to public-private and public-public part nership arrangements (PPPs). As used in this Statement, a PPP is an arrangement in which a government (the transferor) contracts with an operator (a governmental or nongovernmental entity) to prov ide public services by conveying control of the right to operate or use a nonfinancial asset, such as infrastructure or other capital asset (the underlying PPP asset), for a period of time in an exchange or exchange-like transaction. The requirements of this Statement did not apply to the City for the current fiscal year. ¾ GASB Statement No. 96, Subscription-Based Information Technology Arrangements – The objective of this statement is to provide guidance on the accounting and financial reporting for subscription- based information technology arrangements (SBITAs) for government end users (governments). This Statement (1) defines a SBITA; (2) establishes that a SBITA results in a right-to-use subscription asset— an intangible asset—and a corresponding subscription liability; (3) provides the capitalization criteria for outlays other than subscription payments, including implementation costs of a SBITA; and (4) requires note disclosures regarding a SBITA. Th e City recognized intangible assets and SBITA liabilities as part of implementation of this statement. ¾ GASB Statement No. 93, Replacement of Interbank Offered Rates – Statement No. 93 requires a government to terminate hedge accounting when it renegotiates or amends a critical term of a hedging derivative instrument, such as the reference rate of a hedging derivative instrument’s variable payment. In addition, in accordance with Statemen t No. 87, Leases, as amended, replacement of the rate on which variable payments depend in a lease contract would require a government to apply the provisions for lease modifications, including remeas urement of the lease liability or lease receivable.
The provisions of Statement No. 93 has multiple effective dates. The city has implemented GASB99 to allow the continued use of LIBOR as an appropriate benchmark through the extended period of June 30, 2023.
¾ GASB Statement No. 99, Omnibus 2022 – The primary objectives of this Statement are to enhance comparability in accounting and financial reportin g and to improve the consistency of authoritative literature by addressing (1) practice issues that have been identified during implementation and application of certain GASB Statements and (2) accounting and financial reporting for financial guarantees. The requirements of this Statement applies to the City for the current fiscal year. 532

New Accounting Standards
The City is currently analyzing its accounting practice s to determine the potentia l impact on the financial statements for the following GASB Statements:
¾ GASB Statement No. 100, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections-a n Amendment of GASB Statement No. 62 – The primary objective of this Statement is to enhance accounting and financial reporting requirements for accounting changes and error corrections to provide more understandable, reliable, relevant, consistent, and comparable information for making decisions or assessing accountability. The requirements of this Statement are effective for the City’s year ending June 30, 2024.
¾ GASB Statement No. 101, Compensated Absences – The primary objective of this Statement is to better meet the information needs of financial stat ement users by updating the recognition and measurement guidance for compensated absences. That objective is achieved by aligning the recognition and measurement guidance under a unif ied model and by amending certain previously required disclosures. The requirements of this Statement are effective for the City’s year ending June 30, 2025.

BUDGET AND BUDGETARY ACCOUNTING
Budgeting Procedures
The City adopts a budget annually to be effective July 1, for the ensuing fiscal year. Budgeted expenditures are adopted through the passage of a resolution. This resolution constitutes the maximum authorized expenditures for the fiscal year and c annot legally be exceeded except by subsequent amendments of the budget by the City Council.
The City uses an encumbrance system as an extension of normal budgetary accounting for the General Fund, special revenue funds, and capital projects funds. Under this system, purchase orders, contracts, and other commitments for the expenditure of monies are recorded in order to reserve that portion of applicable appropriations. Encumbrances outstanding at year-end are recorded as reservations of fund balance since they do not constitute expenditures or liabilities. Outstanding encumbrances at year-end are reappropriated for the following year. Unencumbered and unexpended appropriations lapse at year- end.
An operating budget is adopted each fiscal year on a basis consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for the General Fund, certain Special Revenue Funds (State Gas Tax, General Purpose, Paratransit Operations, Public Safety, Lighting and Landscaping Districts, Developer Impact Fees, Community Development and Loan Programs, Richmond Neighborhood Stabilization Corporation, Rent Control, Cost Recovery and Environmental Community Investment Agreement) and the debt service funds (2005 Pension Obligation Bonds, General Debt Service and Civic Center Debt Service). Public hearings are conducted on the proposed budgets to review all appropriations and sources of financing. Capital projects funds are budgeted on a project length basis and are therefore not comparable on an annual basis.
Expenditures are controlled at the fund level for all budgeted departments within the City. This is the level at which expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations. Budgeted amounts for the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fun d Balances-Budget and Actual include budget amendments approved by City Council.
