A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY
COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RIPON
ACCEPTING THE CITY OF RIPON
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
AND SINGLE AUDIT REPORT FOR
THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2022
This resolution accepts the City of Ripon

Council Member Barton asked about the Garbage Enterprise Capital Fund and noted that the City is adding about $95,000 to that fund. He said State mandates will require considerable capital outlays for the garbage system in town. Barton asked City Administrator Werner to clarify how we will get there in terms of funding those additional needs.
Werner said the City transferred the difference between revenue and expenses. There was $95,000 that went to the Enterprise Capital Fund to replace garbage trucks. He said the goal, in the initial projection in 2020 when the utility rates were established, had been to transfer $280,000; the main reason that did not happen is due to regulatory compliance expenses. He said the most impactful measure has been the tipping fees. He said the trash station fees have changed due to regulations they are required to meet. This has reduced the amount of the transfer to the Enterprise Capital Fund.
Werner said staff is anticipating the Council will approve a 5% increase in garbage utility rates that is on tonight’s agenda, getting them closer to the anticipated transfer amount.
Barton asked if the PFFP fees will cover the South San Joaquin Irrigation District (SSJID) connection and said he believed this public forum is a good time to have Werner address this again and how the City is planning for that eventuality. Werner said there are a couple very large expenses in the future and one of the near-term large expenses staff is planning for is the pipeline that would connect the City of Ripon water system to the SSJID South County Water Project transmission main on French Camp Road. This is a large capital project and staff is exploring funding options including AB1600, Enterprise Capital Funds and grants. He said as part of staff’s analysis they are looking at how those funds are being allocated depending on benefits. Some of the benefits are being allocated to new growth because this is City Council Page 9 December 13, 2022
expanding the system and our water supply capacity and then some of those are being allocated to existing residents because it is replacing wells that have been put out of service because of water quality. Staff is hoping to have the analysis done early next year and is working with SSJID to make sure it is put together and they are able to talk to Council about some of those funding options.

2. PUBLIC HEARINGS
Council will take action on the following items at the conclusion of each Public Hearing.
A. PFFP CAPITAL FUNDS ANNUAL REPORT
This is a public hearing on an annual
report of Public Facilities Financing Plan
(PFFP) capital fees covered under
Government Code Section 66000 et seq.
Recommended Action: Approve the
annual PFFP Report for the period ending
June 30, 2022.
City Clerk Roos said this is a public hearing on the City’s annual report of capital fees for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022 pursuant to California Government Code Section 66000.
Roos referenced the staff report that provided information for the Council regarding this Public Facility Financing Plan Annual Progress Report and the requirements under Government Code Section 66000 along with how this Report ties to the Fund Summary Balances report as of June 30, 2022.
Roos said the PFFP Report has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Government Code and is prepared consistent with prior years.
Vice Mayor Zuber said there are 13 accounts with a total of $15 million but four of those accounts total negative $6 million so there is only $9 million due to those four accounts borrowing against the other nine accounts to fund projects before they had collected their funds. He said over time, the money will come back but his concern is if the City runs into things they need to do and have run out of money. For example, Council is going to approve a project tonight that will take $450,000 so instead of having $16 million, we City Council Page 10 December 13, 2022
will have $15.5 million.
Zuber said he has never liked funding ahead when we have to borrow money and this is a perfect example of that. He said there is a potential problem if a big project came up that we need to fund and we cannot do it. Even though the report says there is money in the accounts, $6 million of it we do not have until the other accounts collect all their money to pay it back.
Mayor Restuccia said that is a good point. It may be a long period before the money comes back.
Zuber said it could be 18 years. Restuccia said that is assuming we build to that stage, but if we do not build to that, it could be 2050 or 2060.

AND CERTAIN OTHER MATTERS
RELATING THERETO
This is a public hearing in connection with
the proposed issuance of tax-exempt
revenue bonds by the California Municipal
Finance Authority (CMFA) to finance the
construction of the Terraces at Bethany
Home.
Recommended Action: City Council to
execute the Joint Exercise of Powers
Agreement of the CMFA, and adopt the
resolution in favor of the issuance of the
Bonds by the CMFA.
City Administrator Werner said the California Municipal Finance Authority (CMFA) has been asked by Bethany Home to be the issuer of tax-exempt financing for The Terraces at Bethany Home project that was approved by the City Council on July 12, 2022. He said CMFA has requested the City Council to hold a public hearing and to adopt a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute the Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement with the CMFA and approve the issuance of the Bonds by the CMFA. Werner introduced Anthony Stubbs from the CMFA.
Anthony Stubbs, CMFA said the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act (TEFRA) requires a public hearing in the jurisdiction when a project within that jurisdiction is financed with tax-exempt funding. Bethany Home has requested CMFA be the issuer of tax-exempt financing. He said the CMFA is a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) and established to help nonprofits, governments and businesses with taxable and tax-exempt financing.
City Council Page 12 December 13, 2022
Stubbs said the financing is not an obligation of the City and the City has no legal responsibility in regards to the financing. This is strictly to adhere to TEFRA and the California Government Code.
Mayor Restuccia said he understands what Stubbs said and he read the information that was sent over. He asked who executes the bond documents. Stubbs said it is the CMFA, Bethany Home and the underwriter, Zeigler.
Restuccia asked if they actually execute a note. Stubbs confirmed.
Restuccia asked if there is a lien. Stubbs confirmed and said the borrower is the ultimate responsible party.
Restuccia said the City signs nothing; they just do this action tonight. Stubbs confirmed and said the City provides a public forum for the CMFA to come and say tax-exempt financing is being used. This is for transparency purposes to let the jurisdiction know that tax-exempt financing is being used.
Restuccia said he is for this but does not want to get anything wrong and said City Attorney Terpstra understands all of this.
Restuccia said based on what Stubbs said, the City’s bond rating will not be impacted at all with this. Stubbs confirmed.
Restuccia asked if staff has talked to anyone who has done this to know what this process is.
City Attorney Terpstra said he has, and this is the customary path in order to provide taxexempt financing. He said he has spoken with representatives of Merced County and Stockton and it is clear in the resolution, the terms of the City’s obligations, rights and responsibilities including the public hearing and signing onto the JPA. He said the key to a JPA is that each of the member agencies in the JPA have the same common power and rights.
Restuccia said he is glad Terpstra brought that up because the letter they got was from a third party counsel that says they are representing them but they are not, they are representing the CMFA,. He asked Terpstra if he is comfortable with that. Terpstra confirmed. He said the same questions come up wherever the CMFA goes and having the updated information from their counsel saved staff a lot of time.
Restuccia asked if there have been any defaults. Stubbs said no. Restuccia said that means they do not know how they would handle that but that is fair. Stubbs said it would be handled the typical way a default is handled.
Vice Mayor Zuber said the bylaws mention that the directors of the organization get compensation and 25% of something is coming back to the City. Stubbs said the Board of the CMFA is not paid but CMFA staff is, so there is a financing or issuance fee charged to the borrower to compensate the CMFA staff. He said when the CMFA was organized; they made it a requirement of themselves to share 25% of the financing fee with the hosting municipality.
City Council Page 13 December 13, 2022
Zuber asked if the City does not sign on, does Bethany Home lose their funding. Stubbs said the City stay a member until the loan process is complete, but after that, the City can separate themselves from the JPA. He said the CMFA has over 350 municipalities that are members and none of them have opted out.
Restuccia asked when the anticipated closing date is. Stubbs said it is expected to be January 30, 2023.
Barton said the issuance fee in the documentation is about $5 million, he asked if 25% of that would go to the City. Stubbs said that is not the issuance fee to the CMFA, those are issuance costs and the City should expect to receive around $15,000.

3. DISCUSSION ITEMS
A. FLEET MAINTENANCE FACILITY PROJECT
Diede Construction, Inc.
Discussion/Action
Award the base bid contract for the Fleet
Maintenance Facility Project to Diede
Construction, Inc. in the amount of
$11,156,000 and authorize staff to
proceed.
City Administrator Werner said the original Corporation Yard is at Doak Boulevard and Vera Avenue and was built in 1976 when Ripon had a population of 3,500 and had seven public works employees. In 2005, there was a realization for a new corporation yard.
Werner said the City purchased seven acres on Doak Boulevard and in 2019, an architect was hired to design a master plan of how to phase the project considering the operations of the Public Works Department and funding availability. Staff brought this back to Council and they decided to focus on building a fleet maintenance facility.
Werner said the fleet maintenance facility will have a 12,500 square foot building, six stalls, machine shop, offices, restrooms, and locker rooms. He referenced the renderings City Council Page 14 December 13, 2022
attached to the staff report online if people are interested.
Werner said Deide Construction was the lowest, responsive bidder on November 17, 2022. He said staff included the known additional expenses to the project bid amount including a contingency, development fees, materials testing and the architect to assist as needed. This amount is $1.876 million for a total capital cost of $13,032,000.
Council Member de Graaf expressed his surprise over how close the bids were and said that is a good indication that the bid is accurate.
Mayor Restuccia asked if the bids are reviewed to make sure that what they bid on is actually what the plans show and if there is a third party that reviews this. He said that sometimes we see where the contractors miss things. Werner said staff reviewed the bids, as well as LDA Partners, to ensure they are responsive to the bid documents and a responsible contractor.
Restuccia said this project is far overdue.
Motion to award the contract for the Fleet Maintenance Facility Project to Diede Construction, Inc. in the amount of $11,156,000 and authorize staff to proceed.

B. WATER, SEWER, GARBAGE ENTERPRISE FUNDS ANNUAL RATE
ADJUSTMENT ANALYSIS
Discussion/Action Staff is recommending the City Council approve implementing the February 1,
2023 rate increases for the water (2%),
sewer (4%) and garbage (5%) enterprise
funds that were originally approved in the
2020 5-Year Rate Study.
Mayor Restuccia said this was already approved and tonight they are just confirming it.
City Administrator Werner said rates were already approved in 2020 through the Proposition 218 process. The City Council instructed staff to bring this item back each year to confirm that the rate increases initially included in the Proposition 218 process are necessary. Werner said Council cannot raise the rate increase but can lower it, which has been done in the past.
Werner said the rate study has been updated with current numbers and compares what was included in the original 2020 study and what the 2022 numbers reflect. He said the biggest thing staff looks for, besides paying the operations and the debt, are the transfers happening to the Enterprise Capital Funds to make sure money is being put aside to do City Council Page 15 December 13, 2022
the capital replacement projects when they need to happen. He said there is a target cash balance as well. He said in both the Water Fund and the Sewer Fund, the proposed transfers have been made. Werner said in order to make the transfers and ensure the balance remains at that point, staff is recommending the full rate increase for each of those funds.
Werner said the garbage fund is also being recommended for the full rate increase.
Werner said it is a 2% increase for water, 4% increase for sewer, and a 5% increase for garbage. The overall impact to customers is 3% or $3.92 per month on average.
Werner said Council directed staff to start keeping track of regulatory expenses. There are processes in place to better track these expenses going forward but staff was able to look back at fiscal year 2022 and estimate as much as they could. Werner said it was a little over $100,000 for water, $117,000 for sewer and garbage was $115,000, which averaged $4.70 of a $112 monthly bill to pay for regulatory compliance put in place by State mandates.
Mayor Restuccia confirmed those are State mandates.
Council Member Barton said this was discussed a few months ago and Ripon remains very competitive compared to other cities in regards to fees charged for services. He said occasionally the City receives pushback but he thinks a 3% increase seems very reasonable.
Restuccia said he thinks it shows that we are on an efficient system versus other cities.
Motion to approve implementing the February 1, 2023 rate increases for the water (2%), sewer (4%) and garbage (5%) enterprise funds that were originally approved in the 2020 5-Year Rate Study.

Discussion/No Action Discuss response to Grand Jury Case No. 0321 for Superior Court of California,
County of San Joaquin regarding
Cybersecurity: Local Defense Against a

staff.
Chief Ormonde said the San Joaquin County Civil Grand Jury conducted surveys regarding cybersecurity of all County law enforcement agencies and prepared a report.
Staff has drafted a response to the report and will bring it back with Council’s recommendations for approval next month.
Vice Mayor Restuccia said the Disaster Recovery Plan was very thoroughly written.
Council Member Zuber said he had some concerns regarding clarification about some of the language. He said the draft response addresses most of the report, but not the ransomware item. He said he feels that this is not information that should be discussed in public, but something needs to be in the report regarding the fact that we have a plan.
Ormonde said they made some changes today to better address that and they will be in the response for Council to approve in December.
REPORTS
Department Heads:
Chief Ormonde said the Police Department is celebrating active duty and military Veterans during the month of November with Salute to Service patches. The patches are available in the Police Department lobby for $10.00 and all proceeds go to VFW Post 1051 and American Legion Post 190 in Ripon to help with Veterans Services.
Vice Mayor Restuccia asked if the Police Department had any events for Veterans Day.
Ormonde said the Police Department will not have any events. Mayor Uecker said the VFW will host a lunch and a dinner. Ormonde said there will be a Veterans service at 10:30 AM at the Veterans Wall and Museum.
Planning Director Zuidervaart said there is a Planning Commission meeting on Monday, November 14, 2022. The Commission will be reviewing a project on Pine and Acacia.

2. TOPICS OF DISCUSSION
A. SAN JOAQUIN ONE VOICE ADVOCACY TRIP 2023
2023 One Voice Project:
Regional Project - Ripon Multi-Modal
Station
Discussion/Action
City Council to consider approving the
Ripon Multi-Modal station as the City of
Ripon Regional Project for 2023 One
Voice.
Additionally, if the City Council is
interested in sending a representative or
representatives to participate in the 2023
One Voice trip, please designate and
approve the City’s representative(s) to
attend.
City Administrator Werner said this year’s One Voice conference will be in-person in Washington D.C. for May 8-10, 2023. Werner said the San Joaquin Council of Governments (SJCOG) criteria for project submittals changed this year. Previously, public agencies were allowed to submit one regional and one local project, but are now only able to submit one regional project. The project needs to prove it is regional and has a federal nexus; has a complete or near complete National Environmental Policy Act 2 Packet Pg. 26
Minutes Acceptance: Minutes of Nov 30, 2022 3:00 PM (Approval of Minutes) City Council Page 2 November 30, 2022
(NEPA) clearance; is significantly developed to warrant Federal spending and has demonstrated community support.
Werner said the Ripon project that best meets the criteria is the Ripon Multi Modal Station. In 2017 property was purchased for the station. The City has an MOU with the San Joaquin Regional Rail Commission (SJRRC) to move the project forward including the design of the station and eventual construction of said station. The NEPA has been completed for this project. Werner said ACE Rail would be responsible for the platform.
He said Ripon received a $3.905 million grant for this project with $1.5 million allocated towards the design. The City has hired O’Dell Engineering to do the design and are about 60% complete. Werner said total estimated capital costs the City would be responsible for is about $6 million, this includes off-site parking and improvements to 4th Street and Industrial Avenue to access the station. Currently the City’s portion of the project does not include the Multi Modal station, ACE does not plan to staff this station, so the City would reserve the land and stub utilities for a future building.
Council Member Zuber clarified that the $6 million covers everything but the building and the platform. Werner confirmed.
Vice Mayor Restuccia asked if parking will be a parking garage or a parking lot. Werner confirmed it will be a parking lot.
Council Member Barton asked for confirmation regarding the cost of the design. Werner repeated the design cost of $1.6 million and elaborated that design includes land improvements, street improvements and 30% of the building design.
Mayor Uecker asked if it would be possible to build a two or three-story parking garage instead of a parking lot. Werner explained it would not be possible to use this funding for that because projected ridership does not support the need for a parking garage.
Council discussed what the grant will cover.
Uecker said he feels that if the parking lot is constructed there needs to be a walkway to downtown. Werner agreed and said the goal is to make the station and the parking area feel like an extension of downtown with lights and sidewalks.
Werner said some of the benefits of this project include downtown economic vitality and the regional ACE service for our residents.
Council Member Barton said he believes there are many capital improvement projects that are a higher priority and asked if this is the only one that meets the necessary criteria.
Werner said staff has the priority project list this project is the best match.
Uecker asked how much the City is applying for. Werner said $3.5 million.
Restuccia asked if ACE is including the building. Werner said no, because ACE does not plan on ever staffing the building. Zuber said it will be like Manteca and will be a transit center, not a train station.
2 Packet Pg. 27
Minutes Acceptance: Minutes of Nov 30, 2022 3:00 PM (Approval of Minutes) City Council Page 3 November 30, 2022
Barton asked if receiving the funding obligates the City to additional projects other than the parking and street improvements. Werner said no, just normal maintenance.
Zuber said if there are special conditions or obligations tied to it, they are presented beforehand, giving the City the opportunity to decline the funding, Werner said the conference dates are May 9 – 10, 2023 which conflicts with the May 9, 2023 City Council meeting. The Council Member that attends the conference would have the option to attend the meeting virtually, not attend the City Council meeting or the meeting could be rescheduled.
Council discussed who would go on the trip and agreed that Council Member de Graaf would attend the conference and Mayor Uecker would attend if de Graaf could not make it.
Motion to approve the proposal for submitting plan for the improvements around the ACE station and authorize the City Administrator and Council Member Daniel de Graaf to attend the One Voice Conference.
RESULT: ADOPTED [5 TO 0]
MOVER: Leo Zuber, Council Member
SECONDER: Michael Restuccia, Vice Mayor
AYES: Uecker, Restuccia, Zuber, de Graaf, Barton
Discussion after the vote:
Zuber said he believes the City needs to start investing money to prepare other projects for upcoming grants. Werner said it is important to be ready with projects that fit the category. Werner said Caltrans recently released the Caltrans Transportation Planning document (CTP2050) which details specific criteria of the projects they want to see funded. He said it is important that the City is ready with projects that meet this criteria.
Zuber said he believes SJCOG can help the City with this.
Barton asked for a list of potential projects. Werner said he will talk to SJCOG to see what projects might qualify as regionally competitive.
Zuber said it does not have to serve the region, but it has to meet the criteria that is affecting the regional area.
Werner said staff has the list of Council’s priority projects and can make categories to see which projects fit where for future grants.
Uecker asked about Second Street. Werner said the Second Street project has been funded and the engineering department is currently working on it.
Werner said the engineering department is putting a design together for Locust so that 2 Packet Pg. 28
Minutes Acceptance: Minutes of Nov 30, 2022 3:00 PM (Approval of Minutes) City Council Page 4 November 30, 2022
project is shovel ready.

To the City Council of the
City of Ripon, California
We have audited the financial statements of the City of Ripon Money Purchase Thrift Pension Plan (the Plan) for the year ended June 30, 2022. Professional standards require that we provide you with information about our responsibilities under generally accepted auditing standards as well as certain information related to the planned scope and timing of our audit. We have communicated such information in our letter to you dated May 4, 2022.
Professional standards also require that we communicate to you the following information related to our audit.
Significant Audit Matters
Qualitative Aspects of Accounting Practices
Management is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. The significant accounting policies used by the Plan are described in Note 1 to the financial statements. No new accounting policies were adopted and the application of existing policies was not changed during 2022. We noted no transactions entered into by the Plan during the year for which there is a lack of authoritative guidance or consensus. All significant transactions have been recognized in the financial statements in the proper period.
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management and are based on management’s knowledge and experience about past and current events and assumptions about future events. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to the financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ significantly from those expected. There were no such estimates affecting the Plan’s financial statements.
The financial statement disclosures are neutral, consistent, and clear.
Difficulties Encountered in Performing the Audit
We encountered no significant difficulties in dealing with management in performing and completing our audit.
Corrected and Uncorrected Misstatements
Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements identified during the audit, other than those that are clearly trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management.
Management has corrected all such misstatements. In addition, none of the misstatements detected as a result of audit procedures and corrected by management were material, either individually or in the aggregate, to the Plan’s financial statements taken as a whole.
Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, a disagreement with management is a financial accounting, reporting, or auditing matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, that could be significant to the financial statements or the auditor’s report. We are pleased to report that no such disagreements arose during the course of our audit.
Management Representations
We have requested certain representations from management that are included in the management representation letter dated October 26, 2022.

Attachment: 2022.06.30 City of Ripon Money Purchase Thrift Pension Plan - Audit Communication Letter (22-46 : Money Purchase Thrift Management Consultations with Other Independent Accountants In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and accounting matters, similar to obtaining a “second opinion” on certain situations. If a consultation involves application of an accounting principle to the Plan’s financial statements or a determination of the type of auditor’s opinion that may be expressed on those statements, our professional standards require the consulting accountant to check with us to determine that the consultant has all the relevant facts. To our knowledge, there were no such consultations with other accountants.
Other Audit Findings or Issues
We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and auditing standards, with management each year prior to retention as the Plan’s auditors. However, these discussions occurred in the normal course of our professional relationship and our responses were not a condition to our retention.
We did not identify any additional significant risks of material misstatement as part of our audit planning, other than those that were already communicated to you in our engagement letter. Please note that the identification of significant risks of material misstatement does not necessarily indicate that there were instances of errors or omissions. These are areas that are considered higher risk, in our professional judgment.

To the Honorable Mayor and
Members City Council of the
City of Ripon, California
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the City of Ripon Money Purchase Thrift Pension Plan (the Plan), which comprise the statements of fiduciary net position – pension trust fund and the statements of changes in fiduciary net position – pension trust fund as of and for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City of Ripon Money Purchase Thrift Plan’s financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the City of Ripon Money Purchase Thrift Pension Plan as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, and the respective changes in fiduciary net position for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 of Ripon Money Purchase Thrift Pension Plan, and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City of Ripon Money Purchase Thrift Pension Plan’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.

Packet Pg. 70
Attachment: 2022.06.30 City of Ripon Money Purchase Thrift Pension Plan - Financial Statements (22-46 : Money Purchase Thrift Pension Plan 2 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 opinion. 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 generally accepted auditing standards 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 generally accepted auditing standards, we:
Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of Ripon Money Purchase Thrift Pension Plan’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City of Ripon Money Purchase Thrift Pension Plan’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.
Required Supplementary Information
Management has omitted the management’s discussion and analysis that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supplement the financial statements.
Such missing information, although not a part of the financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. Our opinions on the financial statements are not affected by this missing information.

5 NOTE 1 – PLAN DESCRIPTION
The financial statements of the City of Ripon Money Purchase Thrift Pension Plan (the Plan), a singleemployer defined contribution plan, have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America as applied to fiduciary activities, and in accordance with the Plan agreement.
The following description of the Plan provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions. The Plan is sponsored by the City of Ripon, California (the City).
General
The Plan covers all permanent, full-time employees, excluding public safety employees, of the City who have completed six consecutive months of employment. As of June 30, 2022, there were 67 plan members. Plan provisions and contribution requirements are established and may be amended by the City Council of the City of Ripon. The Plan is subject to the provisions of Government Code Section 7504. The Plan is not subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) as ERISA does not apply to government sponsored plans. Under the Internal Revenue Code, the Plan meets the requirements of Section 401(a) and is exempt from federal income tax under Section 510(a).
The City has the right under the Plan provisions to terminate the Plan by delivering to the trustee and administrator written notice of such termination. In the event of plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.
Employee Contributions
Eligible employees can elect to defer 5% of their compensation to the Plan. The Plan allows additional employee elective contributions up to 6.6% of annual compensation.
Employer Contributions
The City makes contributions to the Plan equal to 10% of the total compensation, excluding overtime, of all participants in the Plan under the mandatory provision and up to 3.3% of the qualified employee’s annual compensation under the voluntary provision.
The City entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the Union representing its employees which requires the City to “pick up” the 5% employee contribution referenced above. All such contributions are designated as employee contributions and are fully vested.
Participant Accounts
In accordance with the trust agreement, each member directs the investments held in his/her individual account. The participants’ accounts are held by a corporation-administered trust fund.
Vesting
Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings thereon. Vesting in the City contributions under the mandatory provision and earnings thereon is based on years of continuous service. A member is 100% vested after six years of credited service. Participants are fully vested in the City contributions under the voluntary provision and earnings thereon. 2022.06.30 City of Ripon Money Purchase Thrift Pension Plan - Financial Statements

6 NOTE 1 – PLAN DESCRIPTION (Continued)
Payment of Benefits
Upon termination of service or attainment of earliest retirement age of 55, a participant may elect to receive the value of the account under one of the methods as described in the Plan.
The City contribution for, and interest forfeited by, employees who leave employment before six years of service are redistributed to all participants based on salary and vesting levels.
Participant Notes Receivable
The Plan provides for loans to participants which are secured by their vested account balances and can be no greater than the lesser of 50% of the participant’s vested account balance or $50,000. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account and bear interest at rates which are commensurate with local prevailing rates as determined by the Plan administrator. Principal and interest are paid ratably through payroll deductions.
Expenses
Plan administrator charges are paid by the City of Ripon. Investment related expenses are paid from the Plan assets.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
The Plan’s investments are reported at fair value. Securities traded on national exchanges are valued at the last reported sales price. The Plan’s investments are held in trust by Bank of Stockton.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest and dividend income are recorded on the accrual basis.
Fair Market Value of Financial Instruments
Unless otherwise noted, the carrying value of financial instruments, including investments, receivables and liabilities, approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
Notes Receivable from Participants
Loans to participants are reported at their unpaid balances plus any accrued but unpaid interest.
Payments of Benefits
Benefits are recorded when paid.

7 NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Plan administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results may differ from the estimates.
Budgetary Accounting
The Plan does not utilize formal budget procedures and is not required to adopt such procedures by law.
Accordingly, budgetary comparison information is not required or presented.
Reporting Entity
The Plan, governed by the Retirement Board, is considered an independent entity. Plan management considered all potential component units for inclusion in the reporting entity by applying the criteria set forth in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Plan concluded that there were no potential component units which should be included in the reporting entity.
NOTE 3 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Plan’s investments are reported at fair value in the accompanying statements of fiduciary net position – pension trust fund. The methods used to measure fair value may produce an amount that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective future fair values. Furthermore, although the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.
The fair value measurement accounting literature establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This hierarchy consists of three broad levels:
Level 1 inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and have the highest priority; Level 2 inputs are from other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 inputs are unobservable and have the lowest priority. The Plan uses appropriate valuation techniques based on the available inputs to measure the fair value of its investments. When available, the Plan measures fair value using Level 1 inputs because they generally provide the most reliable evidence of fair value. Level 3 inputs were used only when Level 1 or Level 2 inputs were not available.
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for Level 2 assets measured at fair value.
There have been no changes in the methodologies used at June 30, 2022.
Corporate obligations and government securities are valued at fair value. The market approach is used to value these assets which uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets, liabilities, or a group of assets and liabilities, such as a business.
Mutual funds and Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) are valued at the daily closing prices as reported by the fund. These funds are required to publish their daily net asset value (NAV) and to transact at the price. NAV is calculated by dividing the value of the net assets of the fund by the total number of outstanding shares of the fund. The mutual funds and REITs held by the Plan are deemed to be actively traded.

9 NOTE 5 – RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market, and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statement of fiduciary net position – pension trust fund.
NOTE 6 – RELATED PARTY AND PARTY-IN-INTEREST TRANSACTIONS The Third-Party Administrator of the Plan and the Trust holding plan assets provide various services to the Plan and receive compensation and other fees for these services and, therefore, qualify as parties-ininterest. Total fees and commissions paid to these parties-in-interest totaled $111,615 and $103,061 for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

MEMO
To: Honorable City Council
From: Daniel Sauer, Lieutenant
Date: 12/13/2022
Subject: Grant Application - San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control - PD RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve the resolution authorizing the Ripon Police Department to submit a grant application to the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District public benefit grant program for the purchase of one police department alternative fuel vehicle.
BACKGROUND:
The purpose of this program is to fund the purchase of new electric, plug-in hybrid, or alternative fuel vehicles for public agencies to promote clean air alternative-fuel technologies and the use of low-or zero-emission vehicles in public fleets.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
The Ripon Police Department wishes to apply for the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District Alternative Fuel Vehicle Purchase Program. All projects will be considered on a firstcome, first-serve basis. The grant is to provide public agencies, as defined by Government Code section 6252, with new electric, plug-in hybrid, or alternative fuel vehicles.
The Police Department is proposing that these funds be used to purchase a 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid. The vehicle could ultimately replace an aging gas vehicle in our fleet used for our Volunteers in Police Services (VIPS).
The City may be able to receive up to $20,000 in grant funds for the alternative-fuel vehicle that replaces a gas vehicle. The cost of the vehicle that exceeds the grant amount would be funded by the City’s “General Capital – Department Fund”.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The total cost of the vehicle is estimated to be $37,290, which would be offset by $20,000 of grants if the Ripon Police Department received the maximum funding. The City responsibility
1.3.C
Packet Pg. 79
would not exceed $17,290, which would be funded from the “General Capital – Department Fund”. Current projected balance at the end of Fiscal Year 2022-23 in this fund is $1.2 million.

MEMO
To: Honorable City Council
From: Ken Zuidervaart, Planning Director
Date: 12/13/2022
Subject: Meadowood Development Agreement - Amendment No. 1 RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Should the City Council agree with Staff’s recommendation, the following motion would be appropriate:
“The City Council approves the First Amendment to the Meadowood Development Agreement, and directs staff to process and record the appropriate documents to facilitate the amendment.” BACKGROUND:
Section 4 of all City of Ripon development agreements (“Timing of Development”) acts as a performance clause for all approved development agreements. This section provides an owner/developer three (3) years to commence construction on their project or else the development agreement will be in default and automatically terminate. This section also provides an owner/developer an option to request a one time 1-year extension regarding this performance clause as approved by City Council.
In October of 2021, the owner/developer requested and received a 1-year time extension regarding this performance clause, essentially extending their performance deadline until December 31, 2022.
Staff received another request from the current owner/developer of the Meadowood residential subdivision project asking for an additional 1-year extension on the performance expiration date as outlined in Exhibit C section 4 (Conditions of Approval) in the final executed development agreement. Pursuant to the executed development agreement, only one 1-year extension may be requested and granted which was approved last year.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
After discussing the matter internally, staff is recommending amending the language in Exhibit
1.4.A
Packet Pg. 83
C, section 4 (Timing of Development) to allow owners/developers additional time to commence construction on their projects. Staff has observed with many projects that it has become increasing more difficult for projects to work through all the requirements to get their projects moving, therefore believe the suggested amendment provides both the owners/developers and City Council the most flexibility and discretion.

APN: 261-630-11 (775 Frontage Rd., Ripon, CA)
Thank you for allowing the District to comment on this referral. Following are the recommendations from our Electrical, Irrigation and Domestic Water Divisions:
Irrigation
• MID has no Water Operations facilities in the proposed project vicinity.
Domestic Water
• No Comments at this time.
Electrical
• The attached drawing shows the approximate location of the District's existing electrical facilities within or adjacent to the project area.
• High voltage is present within and adjacent to the project area. This includes 69,000 volts underground primary, 17,200 volts underground and overhead primary and underground secondary facilities. Use extreme caution when operating heavy equipment, using a crane, ladders, scaffolding, handheld tools or any other type of equipment near the existing MID electric lines and cables. Assume all overhead and underground electric facilities are energized.
• The contractor shall verify actual depth and location of all underground utilities prior to start of construction. Notify "Underground Service Alert" (USA) (Toll Free 800-227-2600) before trenching, grading, excavating, drilling, pipe pushing, tree planting, post-hole digging, etc. USA will notify all utilities to mark the location of their underground facilities. • MID requires that any trenching maintain a 1:1 horizontal distance from any existing pole, determined by the depth of the trench. If trenching encroaches on this requirement, the Contractor needs to contact the MID Electric Engineering Department to brace any affected poles during the trenching process. The cost of any required pole bracing will be assumed by the requesting party. Estimates for bracing any existing poles will be supplied upon request.

• In conjunction with related site improvement requirements, existing overhead and underground electric facilities within or adjacent to the proposed project shall be protected, relocated or removed as required by the District's Electric Engineering Department. Any relocation or installations shall conform to the District's Electric Service Rules. Customer will be responsible for all MlD's cost associated with the development. • MID easements for protection of overhead and underground electrical facilities are required. MID overhead secondary cable shall be protected by a minimum 20’ wide easement centered on the overhead cable. Overhead primary cable shall be protected by a minimum 30’ wide easement centered on the overhead cable. MID underground secondary cable shall be protected by a minimum 5 foot. wide easement centered on the underground cable. MID underground primary cable shall be protected by a minimum 10 foot. wide easement centered on the underground cable. When underground cable is not located in the Road Right of Way or within the PUE along the street frontage a MID easement is required to protect the existing underground electrical facilities and maintain necessary safety clearances.
• This area falls with the PG&E and MID competitive zone. If electric service is desired, contact MID’s Electric Engineering Department to determine the availability of service and coordinate service requirements to propose projects. Please contact Modesto Irrigation District at (209) 526-7337 or (888) 335-1643 and ask for the Electric Engineering Design Group if you have any questions or concerns.
The Modesto Irrigation District reserves its future rights to utilize its property, including its canal and electrical easements and rights-of-way, in a manner it deems necessary for the installation and maintenance of electric, irrigation, agricultural and urban drainage, domestic water and telecommunication facilities.
These needs, which have not yet been determined, may consist of poles, crossarms, wires, cables, braces, insulators, transformers, service lines, open channels, pipelines, control structures and any necessary appurtenances, as may, in District’s opinion, be necessary or desirable.
If you have any questions, please contact me at (209) 526-7447.

Shelby,
Here is a mapping of our current facilities.
We have an aerial lead that shouldn't interfere with the construction build. However, we do have an underground buried cable going to a building. I don't know if this building is going to be a part of your project.
Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Species Impact Findings: Findings to be determined by SJMSCP biologist.
Dear Mr. Zuidervaart:
SJCOG, Inc. has reviewed the project referral for the Conditional Use Permit (UP22-55). This project consists of a request to construct an approximately 6,000 square foot pole barn building for bus storage and a maintenance yard for Ripon Christian School. The existing lot is approximately 34,848 square feet in a Community Commercial (C2) zoned district and contains a pre-existing shop building on-site that will be used for minor bus maintenance. Site improvements include installation of curb, gutter and sidewalk across the frontage, installation of landscaping on-site, paving a portion of the site, etc. The project site is located at 775 Frontage Road, Ripon (APN: 261-630-11).
The City of Ripon is a signatory to San Joaquin County Multi-Species Habitat Conservation and Open Space Plan (SJMSCP). Participation in the SJMSCP satisfies requirements of both the state and federal endangered species acts, and ensures that the impacts are mitigated below a level of significance in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The LOCAL JURISDICTION retains responsibility for ensuring that the appropriate Incidental Take Minimization Measure are properly implemented and monitored and that appropriate fees are paid in compliance with the SJMSCP. Although participation in the SJMSCP is voluntary, Local Jurisdiction/Lead Agencies should be aware that if project applicants choose against participating in the SJMSCP, they will be required to provide alternative mitigation in an amount and kind equal to that provided in the SJMSCP.
This project is not subject to participate at this time due to structure and ground disturbance already existing. Any future structures that require ground disturbance on this or subsequent divided parcels will be subject to participate in the SJMSCP and should be resubmitted to this agency.
It should be noted that if this project has any potential impacts to waters of the United States [pursuant to Section 404 Clean Water Act], it would require the project to seek voluntary coverage through the unmapped process under the SJMSCP which could take up to 90 days. It may be prudent to obtain a preliminary wetlands map from a qualified consultant. If waters of the United States are confirmed on the project site, the Corps and the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) would have regulatory authority over those mapped areas [pursuant to Section 404 and 401 of the Clean Water Act respectively] and permits would be required from each of these resource agencies prior to grading the project site.
If you have any questions, please call (209) 235-0600.

Packet Pg. 118 Attachment: City of Ripon Network Security Plan (3662 : Ripon Network Security Plan) 3 Introduction
There are several threats that could impact the City of Ripon’s Information Technology Network resulting in lapses in the City’s ability to conduct the “business” of the various City departments. The purpose of the document is to provide a framework for the efforts to prepare for these threats, and if realized, how to respond and recover.
Definitions
Below are the definitions of threats that are considered as part of the plan:
Standard Event
Any abnormal observable loss of service or accessibility occurrence in system, network, environment, process, workflow or personnel. Events may be negative in nature.
Adverse Event
Events with a negative consequence. This plan only applies to adverse events that are caused by factors beyond the resolution capabilities of the computer Incident Response Plan (IRP). Examples of adverse events outside of the scope of the IRP are natural disasters, power failures, ransomware or other malicious software attack, etc. and will be covered by the Network Security Plan.
The intent of the document is to provide a framework for the policies of the City of Ripon related to a standard or adverse event, which includes the following:
Part Contents
I Business Continuity Plan
II Disaster Preparedness Plan
III Ransomware or other Malicious Software Preparedness Plan Audience
This document addresses several groups within the City of Ripon central administration with differing levels and types of responsibilities for network security, as follows:
• Administration
• Management Team
• Support Teams
• External Organizations
It should be emphasized that this document is addressed particularly to the members of the Network Security Team, since they have the responsibility of preparing for, responding to, and recovering from any disaster that impacts the IT functions of the City of Ripon.
1.4.C.a
Packet Pg. 119 Attachment: City of Ripon Network Security Plan (3662 : Ripon Network Security Plan) 4 Business Continuity Plan
Purpose
The increasing dependency on computers and telecommunications for operational support poses the risk that a lengthy loss of these capabilities could seriously affect the overall performance of the City of Ripon. A risk analysis identified network systems in two categories:
Category I – those functions whose loss could cause a major impact to the City of Ripon within 72 hours of an outage; and
Category II – those functions whose loss could cause a major impact to the City of Ripon within 2 weeks of an outage.
This risk assessment process will be repeated on a regular basis to ensure that changes to our processing and environment are reflected in recovery planning.
The Management Team recognizes the low probability of an event that results in severe damage to the network system, but understands the importance of preparing for such an event in order to reduce the impacts to the City’s operations by limiting the damage during an event and being prepared to restore the lost data.
The City of Ripon’s Business Continuity Plan is designed to focus resources on the restoration of the critical functions of the City based on the previously identified categories. This is accomplished by identifying responsibilities of the Business Continuity Management Team during an adverse event.
Assumptions
The Business Continuity Plan is predicated on the validity of the following three assumptions:
• The situation that causes the disaster is localized to the data processing facility within the City of Ripon network; or to the communication systems and networks that support the functional area. It is not a general disaster, such as an earthquake or hurricane affecting the entire region.
It should be noted however, that the Business Continuity Plan will still be functional and effective even in an area-wide disaster. Even though the basic priorities for restoration of essential services to the community will normally take precedence over the recovery of an individual organization, the City of Ripon 's Business Continuity Plan can still provide for a more expeditious restoration of our resources for supporting key functions. • The Business Continuity Plan is based on the availability of the hot sites or the backup resources. The accessibility of these, or equivalent backup resources, is a critical requirement.
• The Business Continuity Plan is a document that reflects the changing environment and requirements of the City of Ripon. Therefore, the Business Continuity Plan requires the continued allocation of resources to maintain it and to keep it in a constant state of readiness.
1.4.C.a
Packet Pg. 120 Attachment: City of Ripon Network Security Plan (3662 : Ripon Network Security Plan) 5 Development
The City of Ripon 's Information System Network Administrator, with assistance from key City of Ripon support areas, is responsible for developing the City of Ripon 's Business Continuity Plan.
Maintenance
Ensuring that the Business Continuity Plan reflects ongoing changes to resources is crucial. This task includes updating the Business Continuity Plan and revising this document to reflect updates; testing the updated plan; and training personnel. The Information System Network Administrator is responsible for this comprehensive maintenance task.
The Management Team ensures that a formal review is initiated whenever there is a significant change required for the Business Continuity Plan or at least completed annually.
Testing
Testing the Business Continuity Plan is an essential element of preparedness. Partial tests of individual components and recovery plans will be carried out on a regular basis. A comprehensive exercise of the Business Continuity Plan capabilities and the designated recovery facilities will be performed on an annual basis.

1.4.C.a
Packet Pg. 121 Attachment: City of Ripon Network Security Plan (3662 : Ripon Network Security Plan) 6 Processes and Procedures
The processes and procedures explained below pertain specifically to a disaster disabling the main data center. This functional area houses the servers and infrastructure devices needed to support the City of Ripon’s administrative applications. Especially at risk are the critical applications designated as Category I systems. The Business Continuity Plan provides for recovering the capacity to support these critical applications within 72 hours. The subsections below detail the framework set in place to restore the business functions of the City in response to an adverse event:
1. Detect and determine a disastrous condition.
a. The detection of an adverse event that could negatively affect information processing systems at the City of Ripon is the responsibility of the IT Team, Physical Security Representative, or whoever discovers or receives information about an emergency developing in the data center or other areas housing major information processing systems or about the communication lines leading into the buildings. b. The Infrastructure Manager evaluates the initial status of the damaged area and isolates the event, to the best of their ability, such that other areas are not damaged. c. The IT team will estimate the salvageability of the remaining equipment. The assessment of the damage is reported to the Business Continuity Manager. d. The Business Continuity Manager will notify the City Council of the issue and continue to provide updates through all phases of the event.
2. Notification of Personnel Responsible for Recovery.
a. When a situation occurs that could result in interruption to major information processing systems on sites, the Infrastructure Manager must be immediately notified. b. Based on the evaluation by the Infrastructure Manager and resources needed to evaluate, isolate, and eventually restore the impacted infrastructure, the Business Continuity Manager will contact additional resources, including the City of Ripon’s consultant to assist. c. Other resources will be notified to assist with the functions of the Business Continuity Plan, as determined by the Business Continuity Manager.
3. Activate the designated hot site.
a. The responsibility for activating any of the designated hot sites or backup resources is delegated to the Infrastructure Manager. Within 24 hours of the occurrence the Infrastructure Manager, or designee, will determine the prognosis for recovery of the damaged data center or network infrastructure through consultation with the Consultant, as needed.
b. If the estimated occupancy or recovery of the damaged data center cannot be accomplished within 72 hours, the usual occupants of the backup site are notified of the intention to occupy their facility.
4. Disseminate Internal and External Information.
a. The Infrastructure Manager is responsible for relaying estimates and updates regarding the status of the recovery process to the Communications Manager (external communication) and HR Representative (internal communication).
b. The Communications Manager is responsible for directing all meetings and discussions with the news media and the public, and in conjunction with the IT Team, personnel not actively participating in the recovery operation.
1.4.C.a
Packet Pg. 122 Attachment: City of Ripon Network Security Plan (3662 : Ripon Network Security Plan) 7 c. The Communications Manager will notify the public and the media of the City of Ripon business functions that are impacted by the event and the duration of the expected outage. d. The HR Representative will communicate with the City Department Heads regarding the impacts to those various departments and any interim operating plans they will need to implement, based on the impacts from the event.
5. Emergency Phase
a. The emergency phase begins with the initial response to a disaster. During this phase, the existing emergency plans and procedures are implemented for direct efforts to protect life and property. Security over the area is established as local support services such as the Police and Fire Departments are enlisted through existing mechanisms. The Infrastructure Manager is alerted and begins to monitor the situation. b. If the emergency situation appears to affect critical facility or services, either through damage to data processing or support facilities, or if access to the facility is prohibited, the Infrastructure Manager will closely monitor the event, notifying the Business Continuity Team Members as required to assist in damage assessment. Once access to the facility is permitted, an assessment of the damage is made to determine the estimated length of the outage. If access to the facility is precluded, then the estimate includes the time until the effect of the disaster on the facility can be evaluated. c. If the estimated outage is less than 72 hours, recovery will be initiated under normal Information Systems operational recovery procedures. If the outage is estimated to be longer than 72 hours, then the Infrastructure Manager, activates the Business Continuity Team Members and notifies the Communications Manager and HR Representative that the Business Continuity Plan is activated. The recovery process then moves into the backup phase.
d. The Business Continuity Management Team remains active until the recovery is complete to ensure that the organization will be ready in the event the situation changes. e. The Infrastructure Manager is responsible for establishing voice and data communications between the affected site and the remainder of the City of Ripon departments. f. The Infrastructure Manager along with the appropriate team members will evaluate the initial status of the damaged functional area and estimates both the time to reoccupy the facility and the salvageability of the remaining equipment. g. Following the assessment of damage the Infrastructure Manager is responsible for salvaging equipment, data, and supplies following a disaster; identifying which resources remain; and determining their future utilization in rebuilding the data center and recovering from the disaster.
6. Backup Phase
a. The backup phase begins with the initiation of the appropriate Business Continuity Plan for outages lasting longer than 72 hours. In the initial stage of the backup phase, the goal is to resume processing critical applications. Processing will resume whether at the main data center or at the designated hot site, depending on the results of the assessment of damage to equipment and the physical structure of the building. b. In the backup phase, the initial hot site must support critical (Category I) applications for up to 4 weeks and as many Category II applications as resources and time permit. During this period, processing of these systems resumes, possibly in a degraded mode, up to the
1.4.C.a
Packet Pg. 123 Attachment: City of Ripon Network Security Plan (3662 : Ripon Network Security Plan) 8 capacity of the hot site. Within this 4-week period, the main data center will be returned to full operational status, if possible.
c. However, if the damaged area requires a longer period of reconstruction, then the second stage of back up commences. During the second stages, a shell facility is assembled and equipment installed to provide for processing all applications until a permanent site is ready.
7. Recovery Phase
a. The time required for recovery of the data center and the eventual restoration of normal processing depends on the damage caused by the disaster. The time frame for recovery can vary from several days to several months. In either case, the recovery process begins immediately after the disaster and takes place in parallel with backup operations as soon as possible.
b. The Business Continuity Manager will contact the carrier notifying them of the event and the City of Ripon submitting a claim.
c. The Physical Security Representative is to investigate the event and work with the City Attorney, as needed.
d. The Business Continuity Manager will assign the task of updating the Business Continuity Plan, and other related plans, with the lessons learned from the most recent event to the most appropriate team member(s).
1.4.C.a
Packet Pg. 124 Attachment: City of Ripon Network Security Plan (3662 : Ripon Network Security Plan) 9 Disaster Preparedness Plan
Disaster Preparedness is a constantly evolving field, and as such, the City of Ripon’s IT Team will continue to constantly re-evaluate the various systems and procedures in place to respond to a major adverse event. The section below provides an overview of the steps that the IT Team has or plans to put into place to maximize Disaster Preparedness.
1. Documentation
a. The City of Ripon’s IT Team maintains a database of constantly updated documents that detail the Information System Network in place at the City of Ripon. These documents consist of detailed network maps and copies of infrastructure configuration settings. b. In the event of a major adverse event, highly detailed network maps will assist with isolating any potential issues as well as assist in rebuilding the network.
2. Routine BackUp
a. The City of Ripon utilizes a robust backup system that completes a backup of all servers within the Data Center no more than every 24 hours.
b. Critical applications marked as Category I are routinely backed up on a schedule of no more than every 12 hours. Category I servers are also replicated, so that a working copy of the service can be brought up within minutes as long as the replication is available. c. Active databases are backed up separately, keeping a spare copy of the database available for restoration in the event of disaster.
3. Hot Spares
a. The City of Ripon stores hot spares of important infrastructure that can be put in place of non-functioning equipment in the event of a failure.
4. Training
a. The City of Ripon’s IT Team is continuously training and revising recovery strategies to ensure that the procedure put into place is best practice. In a major adverse event, the IT Team is prepared to react quickly to restore Category I systems and minimize downtime.

Instances of malicious software breaches are becoming more prevalent as businesses become more technology dependent, making cybersecurity an area on concern. The City of Ripon will continually reevaluate its network to find vulnerable areas that can be bolstered to prevent against Malicious Software Attacks (MSA).
The City of Ripon embraces a philosophy of data flexibility. In the event of an MSA, the data in use in the production environment can be thrown away and replaced with a backup copy of data with minimal data loss. This avoids payment for encrypted data by allowing compromised data to be wiped and replaced with clean copies taken from backups done no more than every 24 hours. These backup copies are monitored on a daily basis as well as checked with Cyclic Redundancy Checks (CRC) to avoid corruption of data.
The framework below provides an overview of the City of Ripon’s response to a Malicious Software Attack:
1. Isolation
a. In the event of a Malicious Software Attack (MSA) detection and isolation are crucial in limiting the amount of data lost and damage done to the network. The City of Ripon employs endpoint protection on all devices on the network to detect any intrusions. If an intrusion is detected, the IT Team will attempt to isolate the infected devices as much as possible. The City of Ripon is divided into three main networks, limiting the reach of any MSA that breaches the network.
2. Clean and Restore
a. After the threat of an MSA has been isolated and can no longer spread, the cleaning phase will begin. All infected devices will be wiped to factory defaults and scrubbed of data as much as possible before being subjected to a second round of testing. Once all infected data has been removed from the devices, they can be rebuilt from backups and placed back into circulation.
3. Monitoring
a. After an MSA has been addressed, the IT Team will continue to monitor the network affected for any changes or signs of reinfection.
4. Training
a. One of the most important aspects of preventing an MSA is the continuous training of end users. Many malicious software requires user action to infect a network. The most common forms come from phishing emails that deliver infected attachments, or through drive-by downloads acquired by visiting infected sites. The City of Ripon utilizes continuous training to educate end users on methods to identify and avoid phishing attempts or malicious code sent through attachments.

Subject: Designation of Surplus Equipment
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Declare the listed City equipment be designated as surplus and authorize the equipment to be sold utilizing a local auction house or disposed of, in accordance with the Ripon Municipal Code Section 3.32.
BACKGROUND:
The City continually analyzes the functionality and use of equipment. At a point in each piece of equipment’s life cycle a determination must be made if the equipment is still useful and is cost effective to repair or upgrade.
When it is determined that an item has served its original purpose and no longer provides value to the City, designating the equipment as surplus allows the City to disburse or dispose of the equipment in the most equitable, efficient, and cost-effective manner to ensure maximum value is recovered from the item.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
The various departments within the City are requesting the following equipment be designated as surplus and allowed to be sold at auction:

Subject: Harris & Associates Change Order
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve the scope and fee for the Harris & Associates Change Order No. 1 in the amount of $27,820 for additional services to support the Fire District’s efforts of evaluating a Proposition 218 process to increase operating revenue.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Ripon residents and businesses are served by a number of important entities, including the Ripon Consolidated Fire District. The Fire District has communicated concerns regarding their fiscal challenges of staffing Station 3 and continuing ambulance service within its’ service boundary, which includes the City of Ripon.
The members of the Ripon City Council and Ripon Consolidated Fire District Two-by-Two Committee have met multiple times over the last year to discuss how best the City of Ripon can support the Fire District to ensure they are able to continue to provide the high level of service the residents and businesses of Ripon have appreciated for so many years.
The City of Ripon and the Fire District entered into a Memorandum of Understanding that defines the roles and responsibilities of each entity through the Fire District’s evaluation of moving forward with a Proposition 218 process to increase operating revenue. Additionally, the City Council approved a professional services agreement with Harris & Associates to provide the following services to support the Fire District through this process:
Evaluate the feasibility of adopting a fire suppression assessment Development of public outreach strategy using Lucy & Company Prepare Engineer’s Report to support the Proposition 218 study
1.4.E
Packet Pg. 129
DISCUSSION:
Harris & Associates along with their public outreach subconsultant Lucy & Company have completed the first two elements of the initial scope of work summarized above. The results of this work were recently presented to the Two-by-Two Committee along with the following recommendations:
Fire District to complete a staffing analysis as a separate report or amend the Fire District strategic plan to include the staffing analysis.
Fire District to conduct community presentations and stakeholder outreach to review the staffing analysis and receive input.
Conduct a survey to obtain data regarding community opinions of staffing levels and associated cost that are supported by the community.
The Two-by-Two Committee requested that Harris & Associates provide an amendment to their original scope and fee to support the Fire District in these efforts (see attached). The additional cost for this work is $27,820, which would be split 50/50 between the City of Ripon ($13,910) and the Fire District ($13,910).
FISCAL IMPACT:
Based on the Memorandum of Understanding, the City of Ripon would be responsible to fund $13,910 of Change Order No. 1. Below is a summary of the overall cost to date:
Fee City of Ripon Share Fire District Share
Original Scope $118,080 $59,040 $59,040
Change Order No. 1 $27,820 $13,910 $13,910
Total $145,900 $72,950 $72,950

Subject: General Services Agreement - Keesey Design
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve and authorize the Mayor to sign the agreement with Keesey Design, to explore site development concepts for potential townhomes at 122 N. Elm Avenue in the not to exceed amount of $13,200 (funding source: City of Ripon's affordable housing fund).
BACKGROUND:
Staff has been exploring different ideas and opportunities for some underutilized City owned property adjacent to the Downtown District (122 N Elm Avenue). The property is currently zoned R4 (Multiple Family Residential) and staff believes the best use for the property would be to construct townhouses that would complement the Downtown District. In order to explore site development concepts for a potential townhouse project, staff believes it would be best to engage the services of a professional design service.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
City staff has requested a scope and fee from Keesey Design to provide site development concepts for a potential townhouse project at this location. The design services will be conducted in 2 phases. Phase 1 will explore site layout options to include concept drawings depicting number of units, showing setbacks and site features, including floor plan design drawings. Phase 2 will include elevation designs for a potential project to include materials and color choices. If a design is approved, construction drawings would need to be drawn up for the project and the project would need to be bid out for construction.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The entire cost of services with Keesey Design will be reimbursed by the City’s affordable housing fund (current balance: $1.8 million).

259 N. Wilma Avenue
Ripon, CA 95366
MEMO
To: Honorable City Council
From: Jane Kilgore, Deputy City Clerk
Date: 12/13/2022
Subject: Website Update - CivicPlus
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve and authorize the Mayor to sign the agreements with CivicPlus for two modules CivicEngage and CivicOptimize in the not to exceed amount of $136,652 to be paid over a fiveyear period (funding source: General Fund).
BACKGROUND:
The City of Ripon website was created in 1998 by City staff and updated in 2015 by an outside contractor. Staff is recommending the City Council consider contracting with an outside contractor once again to update the City’s website.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
Staff has researched other municipal websites and developed the following goals for the 2023 update of the City of Ripon website:
1. Allow residents and businesses to use website as a “virtual city hall”.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, individuals were forced to conduct much more of their business electronically than what they may have been accustomed to in the past. Prior to the pandemic, 28% of all website traffic was conducted using a mobile device. As of August 2022, this number has increased to 59%. The proposed website update will provide more intuitive and user-friendly options for residents and businesses to pay utility bills online, reserve rental facilities, sign up for recreation activities, and apply for building permits.
2. Primary source for communication with the community from any device.
Everyone gets information from their own preferred sources, which can include anything from a newspaper to their favorite social media site. Rather than trying to distribute information to the various newspapers and social media applications, the City of Ripon would use the website as the primary source of communication with the community. This
1.4.G
Packet Pg. 143
will allow residents and businesses to easily find needed information from their mobile devices or home computers. Additionally, it will allow for consistent information to be relayed to the other sources of information, such as the newspaper and social media sites.
Staff will use the new website to publish informational newsletters to keep the public informed of important news and upcoming events (e.g., recreation sign ups, watering schedules, recycling schedule, etc). In addition to newsletters, the website will be updated with a responsive design allowing the website to automatically adapt to all devices, platforms and screen sizes.
3. Single process for individuals to report an issue and efficiently transmit to the appropriate department while communicating the status to the individual reporting the issue.
A focus of the City has been to resolve issues such as uneven sidewalks, graffiti, potholes, streetlights not working, and other similar issues that impact residents’ quality of life as quickly as possible. By using the website to allow individuals to report these types of issues in the community, it will allow for a faster response by staff to address these issues. The website will also be used to generate automatic status updates to the person reporting the issue so they are aware staff is working to address the issue and ultimately be notified when the issue is resolved.
4. Website must be user-friendly.
In order for a virtual City Hall to be successful as the first place residents go for information, it needs to be easy to use. The current website is difficult to navigate and find necessary forms and documents without knowing the specific department or form name. This forces the user to have to click through multiple pages to find the information they are seeking, which becomes frustrating. This update will provide a Document Center with a predictable and intuitive search bar, allowing residents to search for key words in documents.
Based on these goals, Staff has interviewed three outside contractors to update the City website and recommend the City Council approve and authorize the Mayor to sign the contracts with CivicPlus for two modules CivicEngage and CivicOptimize.
The first year costs of CivicEnage and CivicOptimize are $30,806 and $11,045, respectively.
Staff was able to secure a $20,000 discount off the first year and start-up costs. The contract is for five years with the cost going up 3% (reduced from 5%) on an annual basis. Below is a table summarizing the five-year cost.
Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Totals
CivicEngage $30,806 $8,100 $8,343 $8,593 $8,851 $64,693 CivicOptimize $11,045 $14,890 $14,890 $15,337 $15,797 $71,959 $41,851 $22,990 $23,233 $23,930 $24,648 $136,652
Once the contract is approved, it is anticipated the new website will take four to six months to create and be ready for public use.

FISCAL IMPACT:
The new website is composed of two modules through CivicPlus: CivicEngage and CivicOptimize. The first-year costs of CivicEngage and CivicOptimize are $30,806 and $11,045 respectively. The total cost over the 5-year period is $136,652, which would be funded through the General Fund.

MEMO
To: Honorable City Council
From: Lisa Roos, City Clerk & Finance Director
Date: 11/08/2022
Subject: Audited financial statements
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
No action is required at this time. Resolutions will be presented in December for acceptance of the City of Ripon Financial Statements and the Money Purchase Thrift Pension Plan Financial Statements and the Independent Auditors Reports for the fiscal year end June 30, 2022.
BACKGROUND:
The City utilizes a number of funds to track revenue and expenses used to conduct the business of the various City departments. These funds are classified by three categories - “Operating Funds”, “Capital Funds”, and “Restricted Funds”. Attached is a flowchart showing each of these fund categories along with the breakdown of the different funds within each of these categories.
The City of Ripon’s Financial Statements and Independent Auditor’s Report as of June 30, 2022 has specific requirements and verbiage that must be used based upon auditing standards, which does not necessarily match the City’s day-to-day terminology. The terms used within the audit to refer to our funds are Governmental Funds, Proprietary Funds (also referred to as BusinessLike Activities) and Fiduciary Funds. Below is a description of these funds and how they relate to our flowchart of fund categories.
Governmental Funds – Most of the City’s basic services are reported in governmental funds that focus on how money flows in and out of those funds and the balances left at year end that are available for spending. These funds are noted on our flowchart as General Fund Operating Funds, Capital Funds and also the Restricted Funds except for Redevelopment.
Proprietary Funds – The City charges customers for the services it provides.
Sometimes throughout the audit these funds are also noted as Business-Type Activities.
These funds are noted on our flowchart as Enterprise Operating Funds.
November Staff Report
a
Packet Pg. 185 Attachment: 21-22 Audited Financial Statements Council packet copied from November (22-48 : Financial Statements and Independent Auditor Fiduciary Funds – These funds are established to serve as the custodian for assets held in a trustee or agency capacity for others and, therefore, cannot be used to support the City’s own programs. These funds are our Successor Redevelopment Agency Funds noted on our flowchart under Restricted funds.
The term “restricted” on our fund category flowchart and within the audit have different meanings. On our fund category flowchart, restricted funds are funds that we have restricted internally for different needs, as noted. In the audit, restricted funds are restricted because of constraints placed on the resources either externally imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors or laws or regulations of other governments, or imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation. This may be because of grants or different funding sources that have not yet been expended.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
The audits for the City of Ripon and for the Money Purchase Thrift Pension Plan for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022 were completed by Price Paige & Company. As noted in the audit communication letters, there were no significant audit findings, no difficulties encountered between the auditors and staff, and no disagreements between management and the auditors.
The audit communication letters also have verbiage that is required by new auditing standards.
These new standards require the auditors to disclose to the Governing Council areas they have identified as significant risks in the City. These areas were a point of focus for the auditors this year. As noted in the letter, the identification of such risks of material misstatements does not necessarily indicate that there were instances of error or omission.
This memorandum is to serve as a narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City of Ripon for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022. We encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with the information that is included in the financial audit.
Financial Highlights:
General Fund:
General fund operating revenue increased by $2,441,663 (or 19%) as compared to the previous fiscal year.
General fund operating expenses increased by $1,879,443 (or 16%) as compared to the previous fiscal year.
During the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022, a total of $237,245 was transferred from the General Fund to Landscape Districts ($63,798), CNG Capital Reserve ($15,878), and CalPERS Contingency Fund ($157,569).
The City’s share of CalPERS unfunded liability decreased significantly due to the larger than normal returns during the prior fiscal year. Fortunately, not all employees of the City of Ripon participate in PERS, so the City’s unfunded liability is much less than other municipalities ($3,257,160 as of June 30, 2021 PERS Valuation Report). Since fiscal year 2017-2018, $1,339,369 has been transferred to a CalPERS Contingency fund and a $250,000 prepayment towards the City’s unfunded accrued liability has been made.

SJCOG changed the policy for FY 21/22 regarding the use of LTF revenue that impacts the City of Ripon. The City must allocate 25% of this revenue to transit related expenses.

o $175,000 for the Corporation Yard design
The City advanced construction for the City Hall and Library buildings and constructed each to a size that accommodates the future growth of the General Plan, which resulted in negative balances to these funds since fees from future growth have not yet been collected. With that, the revenue from this growth over the term of the buildout of the City’s general plan is necessary to relieve these negative balances. Goodwin & Associates re-evaluated the negative fund balances in early 2021 to ensure that the PFFP development fees for these funds are sufficient to ensure that enough revenue is collected from the future growth within the City’s general plan.

To the City Council of the
City of Ripon, California
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Ripon, California (the City) for the year ended June 30, 2022. Professional standards require that we provide you with information about our responsibilities under generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards and the Uniform Guidance, as well as certain information related to the planned scope and timing of our audit. We have communicated such information in our letter to you dated May 4, 2022. Professional standards also require that we communicate to you the following information related to our audit.
Significant Audit Matters
Qualitative Aspects of Accounting Practices
Management is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. The significant accounting policies used by the City are described in Note 1 to the financial statements. No new accounting policies were adopted and the application of existing policies was not changed during 2022. We noted no transactions entered into by the City during the year for which there is a lack of authoritative guidance or consensus. All significant transactions have been recognized in the financial statements in the proper period.
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management and are based on management’s knowledge and experience about past and current events and assumptions about future events. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to the financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ significantly from those expected. The most sensitive estimate affecting the City’s financial statements was:
Management’s estimate of the indirect cost allocation is based on actual costs incurred in each fund. We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop the indirect cost allocation in determining that it is reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.
The financial statement disclosures are neutral, consistent, and clear.
Difficulties Encountered in Performing the Audit
We encountered no significant difficulties in dealing with management in performing and completing our audit.
Corrected and Uncorrected Misstatements
Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements identified during the audit, other than those that are clearly trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management.
Management has corrected all such misstatements. The attached schedule summarizes material misstatements detected as a result of our audit procedures.
Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, a disagreement with management is a financial accounting, reporting, or auditing matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, that could be significant to the financial statements or the auditor’s report. We are pleased to report that no such disagreements arose during the course of our audit. 2022.06.30 City of Ripon - Audit Communication Letter
b
Packet Pg. 194 Attachment: 2022.06.30 City of Ripon - Audit Communication Letter (22-48 : Financial Statements and Independent Auditor report) Management Representations
We have requested certain representations from management that are included in the management representation letter dated October 26, 2022.
Management Consultations with Other Independent Accountants In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and accounting matters, similar to obtaining a “second opinion” on certain situations. If a consultation involves application of an accounting principle to the City’s financial statements or a determination of the type of auditor’s opinion that may be expressed on those statements, our professional standards require the consulting accountant to check with us to determine that the consultant has all the relevant facts. To our knowledge, there were no such consultations with other accountants.
Other Audit Findings or Issues
We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and auditing standards, with management each year prior to retention as the City’s auditors. However, these discussions occurred in the normal course of our professional relationship and our responses were not a condition to our retention.
In addition to those matters already communicated to you in our engagement letter, we identified the following significant risks of material misstatements as part of our audit planning:
1. Fund balance is not properly classified in accordance with GASB 54
2. Manual adjustments (journal entries) posted to the City’s cash accounts are not accurate, approved, or are potentially fraudulent
Please note that the identification of significant risks of material misstatement does not necessarily indicate that there were instances of errors or omissions. These are areas that are considered higher risk, in our professional judgment.
Other Matters
We applied certain limited procedures to management’s discussion and analysis which is required supplementary information (RSI) that supplements the basic financial statements. Our procedures consisted of inquiries of management regarding the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We did not audit the RSI and do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the RSI.
We were engaged to report on individual non-major fund financial statements and additional information on the Successor Agency Trust Fund, which accompany the financial statements but are not RSI. With respect to this supplementary information, we made certain inquiries of management and evaluated the form, content, and methods of preparing the information to determine that the information complies with the modified cash basis of accounting, the method of preparing it has not changed from the prior period, and the information is appropriate and complete in relation to our audit of the financial statements. We compared and reconciled the supplementary information to the underlying accounting records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves.
Restriction on Use
This information is intended solely for the information and use of City Council and management of the City of Ripon, California, and is not intended to be, and should not be, used by anyone other than these specified parties.
Very truly yours,

To the Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
City of Ripon, California
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the accompanying modified cash basis financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Ripon, California (the City), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the modified cash basis financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective modified cash basis financial position of the governmental activities, the businesstype activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Ripon, California, as of June 30, 2022, and the respective changes in modified cash basis financial position, for the year then ended in accordance with the modified cash basis of accounting.
Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America 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.
Emphasis of Matter—Basis of Accounting
We draw attention to Note 1 of the financial statements, which describes the basis of accounting. The financial statements are prepared on the modified cash basis of accounting, which is a basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinions are not modified with respect to this matter.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with the modified cash basis of accounting described in Note 1, and for determining that the modified cash basis of accounting is an acceptable basis for the preparation of the financial statements in the circumstances. Management is also responsible for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Packet Pg. 199 Attachment: 2022.06.30 City of Ripon - Financial Statements with Independent Auditor's Report (22-48 : Financial Statements and Independent 2 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 generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards 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 generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards, we:
Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.
Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements. The accompanying combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and additional information on the Successor Agency Trust Fund are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and additional information on the Successor Agency Trust Fund are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole. 2022.06.30 City of Ripon - Financial Statements with Independent Auditor's Report c

Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information included in the annual report. The other information comprises the management’s discussion and analysis but does not include the basic financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Our opinions on the basic financial statements do not cover the other information, and we do not express an opinion or any form of assurance thereon.
In connection with our audit of the basic financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and consider whether a material inconsistency exists between the other information and the basic financial statements, or the other information otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work performed, we conclude that an uncorrected material misstatement of the other information exists, we are required to describe it in our report.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated October 26, 2022, 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, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s 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.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
JUNE 30, 2022
6 Our discussion and analysis of the City of Ripon’s financial performance provides an overview of the City’s financial activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, within the limitations of the City’s modified cash basis of accounting. Please read this management’s discussion and analysis in conjunction with the City’s financial statements that begin on page 18.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The net position of the City is the difference between total assets and total liabilities and includes restricted and unrestricted funds of both governmental and business-type activities. As summarized in Table 1 on page 10, the City’s assets exceeded its liabilities by $47,225,493 (net position) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. This compares favorably to the previous year’s net position of $41,422,039. This increase is due mainly to capital development fees, which are restricted funds and increased property taxes, motor vehicle in lieu fees, and interest income, which are unrestricted funds. This net position is comprised of the following:
Capital related debt of $6,575,000 represents debt recorded in the proprietary funds for capital assets. The debt is associated with the water and sewer enterprise funds. The City does not capitalize capital assets; therefore, this category solely reflects the debt. Capital related debt of $6,575,000 constitutes a negative net position.
Restricted net position of $38,521,396 represents the portion restricted for public safety, street construction and maintenance, assessment districts, capital projects, mitigation fees, and low- and moderate-income housing.
Unrestricted net position of $15,279,097 represents the portion available to maintain the City’s obligations to citizens and creditors. These unrestricted funds are made up of committed, assigned and unassigned funds. Committed funds are funds approved by the City Council for a specific purpose. Assigned funds are funds that are constrained by the City’s intent to be used for a specific purpose. Unassigned funds are funds that are not restricted, committed, or assigned.
Below is a summary of unrestricted funds:

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
JUNE 30, 2022
7 During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, City staff completed a Reserve Study and City Council approved a policy regarding reserve balances. These policies set goals for the General Fund Reserve, Sick Leave Contingency Reserve, CalPERS Reserve, Healthcare Deductible Reimbursement Reserve, Workers Compensation/Liability Self Insured Retention Reserve and the Natural Disaster/Litigation Reserve. These reserves were funded during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 through the budgeting process. These balances are reviewed annually to confirm the City is in compliance with the policies.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, City Council created a policy of transferring General Fund dollars to the Landscape Maintenance Districts at the end of the year that have an annual operating deficit and do not have a fund balance to cover the annual deficit. This analysis is completed at the end of the fiscal year and transfers are presented to the City Council for approval.
For fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, $63,798 was transferred from the General Fund to four different Landscape Maintenance Districts to cover their deficit fund balances.
USING THIS ANNUAL REPORT
This annual report is presented in a format consistent with the presentation requirements of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, as applicable to the City’s modified basis of accounting.
Report Components
This annual report consists of the following four parts:
1) Government-Wide Financial Statements. The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities (on pages 18-19) provide information about the activities of the City government-wide (or as a whole) and present a longer-term view of the City’s finances. 2) Fund Financial Statements. Fund financial statements (beginning on page 20) focus on the individual parts of the City government. Fund financial statements also report the City’s operations in more detail than the government-wide statements by providing information about the City’s most significant (major) funds. For governmental activities, these statements tell how these services were financed in the short term, as well as what remains for future spending. For proprietary activities, these statements offer short-term and long-term financial information about the activities, which the City operates like businesses, such as the water, sewer and refuse services. 3) Notes to the Financial Statements. The notes to the financial statements are an integral part of the government-wide and fund financial statements and provide expanded explanation and detail regarding the information reported in the statements.
4) Supplementary Information. The annual report includes optional financial information, such as management’s discussion and analysis, combining statements for non-major funds (that are added together and shown in the fund financial statements in a single column) and additional information on the Successor Agency Trust Fund. This other supplementary financial information is provided to address certain specific needs of various users of the City’s annual report.
Basis of Accounting
The City has elected to present its financial statements on a modified cash basis of accounting. This modified cash basis of accounting is a basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Basis of accounting is a reference to when financial events are recorded, such as the timing for recognizing revenues, expenses, and their related assets and liabilities.
Under the City’s modified cash basis of accounting, revenues and expenses and certain related assets, liabilities, and deferred inflows and outflows are recorded when they result from cash transactions or events.
As a result of the use of this modified cash basis of accounting, certain assets and their related revenues (such as accounts receivable and revenue for billed or provided services not yet collected, and other accrued 2022.06.30 City of Ripon - Financial Statements with Independent Auditor's Report c

8 revenue and receivables) and certain liabilities and their related expenses or expenditures (such as accounts payable and expenses for goods or services received but not yet paid, and other accrued expenses and liabilities) are not recorded in these financial statements, with the exception of long-term liabilities arising from cash transactions. In addition, other economic assets, deferred outflows, liabilities, and deferred inflows that do not arise from a cash transaction or event (such as donated assets and postemployment benefit obligations) are not reported, and the measurement of reported assets and liabilities does not involve adjustment to fair value. Lastly, the City does not recognize its investment in capital assets in its statement of net position.
Therefore, when reviewing the financial information and discussion within this annual report, the reader should keep in mind the limitations resulting from the use of the modified cash basis of accounting.
Reporting the City as a Whole
The City’s Reporting Entity Presentation
This annual report includes all activities for which the City of Ripon’s City Council is fiscally responsible.
City management considered all potential component units for inclusion in the reporting entity by applying the criteria set forth in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The City concluded that there are no potential component units which should be included in the reporting entity.
The Government-Wide Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities Management’s analysis of the City as a whole begins on page 6. The government-wide financial statements are presented on pages 18 and 19. The Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities report information about the City as a whole and its activities. These statements include all the City’s assets, liabilities, and deferred inflows and outflows resulting from the use of the modified cash basis of accounting, as further defined in the notes to the financial statements.
These two statements report the City’s net position and changes therein. Keeping in mind the limitation of the modified cash basis of accounting, the City’s net position, the difference among assets, deferred outflows, liabilities, and deferred inflows is one way to measure the City’s financial health or financial position. Over time, increases or decreases in the City’s net position are one indicator of whether its financial health is improving or deteriorating. Other nonfinancial factors should also be considered, such as changes in the City’s sales tax base and the condition of the City’s roads, to assess the overall health of the City.
1) Governmental activities. Most of the City’s basic services are reported here, including the general administration, police, streets, public works and recreation. Property taxes, sales and use taxes, charges for services, operating grants, and contributions finance most of these activities. 2) Business-type activities. The City charges a fee to customers to help it cover all or most of the cost of certain services it provides. The City’s water, sewer, and refuse service are reported here.
Reporting the City’s Most Significant Funds
The Fund Financial Statements
Management’s analysis of the City’s major funds begins on page 14 and provides detailed information about the most significant funds, not the City as a whole. Some funds are required to be established by State law.
However, the City Council establishes certain other funds to help it control and manage money for particular purposes or to show that it is meeting legal responsibilities for using certain taxes, grants, and other money.
The City has three types of funds: governmental, proprietary and fiduciary. 2022.06.30 City of Ripon - Financial Statements with Independent Auditor's Report c

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
JUNE 30, 2022
9 Governmental Funds. Most of the City’s basic services are reported in governmental funds that focus on how money flows into and out of those funds and the balances left at year-end that are available for spending. These funds report the acquisition of capital assets and payments for debt principal as expenditures, not changes to asset and debt balances. The governmental fund statements provide a detailed short-term view of the City’s general government operations and the basic services it provides. The City uses the modified cash basis of accounting and, accordingly, there are no reconciling differences between the governmental activities (reported in the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities) and governmental funds. The City considers the General Fund, Streets & Roads Fund, and Capital Project Fund to be its significant, or major, governmental funds.
All other governmental funds are aggregated in a single column titled “Non-major Special Revenue Funds.”
Proprietary Funds. The City charges customers for the services it provides. These services are generally reported in proprietary funds. Proprietary funds are reported in the same way all activities are reported in the Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities. For example, principal payments on long-term debt are recorded as a reduction to the liability. The City’s proprietary (enterprise) fund financial statements are essentially the same as the business-type activities we report in the government-wide financial statements. The City utilizes the modified cash basis of accounting and, accordingly, capital assets are not capitalized or depreciated. The City has three enterprise funds: Water, Sewer, and Refuse.
Fiduciary Funds. Private Purpose Trust Funds are established to serve as the custodian for assets held in a trustee or agency capacity for others and, therefore, cannot be used to support the City’s own programs. The City has one private purpose trust fund known as the Successor Agency Trust Fund which holds the assets and accounts for the activities related to the winding down of the former Redevelopment Agency.
Net Position – Modified Cash Basis
The City’s combined net position resulting from modified cash basis transactions or events increased from $41,422,039 to $47,225,493 between fiscal years 2021 and 2022. Looking at the net position and net expenses of governmental and business-type activities separately, governmental activities had a larger increase than business-type activities.

13 Governmental Activities
The Statement of Activities format is significantly different from a typical Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Fund Balance. Expenses are listed in the first column, with revenues from that particular program reported to the right. The result is net (expense) revenue. This type of format highlights the relative financial burden of each of the functions on the City’s taxpayers. It also identifies how much each function draws from the general revenues or if it is self-financing through fees and grants or contributions. All other governmental revenues are reported as general. It is important to note that all taxes are classified as general revenue, even if restricted for a specific purpose.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
JUNE 30, 2022
14 A FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE CITY’S FUNDS
Certain funds experienced noteworthy changes from the prior year and are highlighted as follows:
Revenues:
Sales and use taxes increased 37% from the prior fiscal year to the current fiscal year. This is due to increased fuel sales.
Development-related General Fund fees were conservatively budgeted at $262,000, but the amount actually received by the City was $374,646.
The City continues to receive the $250,000 administrative allowance for administering the windingdown of the Redevelopment Agency. At this time, it is not clear when the City would no longer be receiving this allowance.
The City continues to analyze its utility rates based upon a rate study that was completed in 2020. In accordance with Proposition 218, the City Council approved rate increases to occur over a 5-year period. The utility rate study projected increases to water, sewer, and refuse rates during fiscal year 2021/2022 of 2%, 4%, and 5%, respectively. The City Council has directed staff to re-analyze the financial position of each Enterprise Fund each year to decide if any rate needs to be increased based upon the approved increases. During the current fiscal year, utility rates for water, sewer, and refuse increased as projected. There have been significant increases in refuse expenditures due to State mandates. Staff is tracking these increases to report to the City Council. The City received approximately $1,900,000 of the first tranche of American Rescue Plan dollars during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022, and received the second tranche of approximately $1,900,000 during fiscal year ending June 30, 2023. These funds have already been allocated by the City Council at the Strategic Planning meeting in March 2022.
Expenditures:
Capital Outlay expenditures increased $4,808,629 from the prior year. Below is a list of major capital expenditures that were incurred during the current fiscal year:
o Corporation Yard Design - $176,000
o Dispatch Center Upgrades - $294,000 (partially reimbursed by City of Lathrop) o Upgrade to computer servers - $75,000
o Police Vehicles (2) - $169,000
o Public Works Vehicles (2) – $90,000
o Equipment for Parks - $49,000
o Drilling of Well #19 – $902,000
o Senior Center Retrofit Project - $21,000
o Rehabilitation to Stockton Avenue – $3,666,412 (mostly grant funded) o Water, Sewer & Storm Drain expenses due to Stockton Avenue - $500,000; $532,000; and 97,000; respectively

15 CAPITAL ASSETS AND DEBT ADMINISTRATION
Capital Assets – Modified Cash Basis
The City does not capitalize capital assets.
Long-Term Debt – Modified Cash Basis
At June 30, 2022, the City had $7,114,523 in long-term debt arising from modified cash basis transactions or events, compared with $7,808,250 at June 30, 2021. This debt is related to business-type activities and a loan due to the Successor Agency Trust.
At June 30, 2022, the City’s Private-Purpose Trust Fund (Former Ripon Redevelopment Agency) had $19,780,805 in long-term debt arising from the modified cash basis transactions or events, compared with $20,005,512 at June 30, 2021. This debt is related to redevelopment tax allocation bonds.
ECONOMIC OUTLOOK AND MAJOR INITIATIVES
The City’s budget for the upcoming fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 is fairly consistent with the year ending June 30, 2022.
The City staffing levels for the year ending June 30, 2023 increased compared to the year ended June 30, 2022 due to the addition of a new patrol officer, and a regulatory compliance position. In addition, part time positions of Information Technician and Water Conservation Coordinator were moved to full-time positions.
The City’s Redevelopment Successor Agency expects to continue to receive the $250,000 administrative allowance for administering the winding-down of the Redevelopment Agency for the upcoming fiscal years, but is projected to be reduced or eliminated in the future.
The City’s share of CalPERS unfunded accrued liability is projected to increase significantly over the next several years as a result of the CalPERS Board lowering the discount rate. The City has transferred $1,339,369 to a reserve fund for future CalPERS payments. In addition, a $250,000 prepayment was made towards the City’s unfunded accrued liability in fiscal year ended June 30, 2018. It is important to continue to monitor CalPERS increasing rates and unfunded accrued liability. During the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023, the City is establishing a Section 115 trust to help mitigate these increases.

NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
26 NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial statements of the City of Ripon, California (the City) are presented on the modified cash basis of accounting. The modified cash basis of accounting differs from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Generally accepted accounting principles include all relevant Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) pronouncements.
Financial Reporting Entity
The City was incorporated on November 27, 1945, under the general laws of the State of California. The City operates under a Council-Manager form of government consisting of five elected council members including the Mayor and a city council appointed City Manager. The City provides the following services as authorized by its charter: public safety, sanitation, water utility, street maintenance, community development, library, parks and recreation, and general administrative services.
Individual Component Unit Disclosures
There are no entities which meet the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 14, as amended by GASB Statement No. 39 and GASB Statement No. 61 criteria for discrete disclosure within these basic financial statements.
Basis of Presentation
The government-wide financial statements (i.e. Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities) display information about the primary government (the City). These statements include the financial activities of the overall City government, except for fiduciary activities. Eliminations have been made to minimize the double counting of internal activities. These statements distinguish between the governmental and business-type activities of the City. 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.
The Statement of Activities presents a comparison between direct and indirect 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. Indirect expenses are allocated to functions based on the relativity of direct expenses by department. 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 program 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.
Fund financial statements of the reporting entity are organized into funds, each of which is considered to be a separate accounting entity. Each fund is accounted for by providing a separate set of self-balancing accounts that constitutes its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues, and expenditures/expenses. Funds are organized into three major categories: governmental, proprietary and fiduciary. An emphasis is placed on major funds within the governmental and proprietary categories. A fund is considered major if it is the primary operating fund of the City or meets the following criteria:
Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses of that individual governmental or enterprise fund are at least 10 percent of the corresponding total for all funds of that category or type, and
Total assets, liabilities, or expenditures/expenses of the individual governmental or enterprise fund are at least 5 percent of the corresponding total for all governmental and enterprise funds combined. 2022.06.30 City of Ripon - Financial Statements with Independent Auditor's Report c

NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
27 NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Basis of Presentation (Continued)
The funds of the financial reporting entity are described below:
Governmental Funds
The General Fund is the primary operating fund of the City and is always classified as a major fund. It is used to account for all activities except those legally or administratively required to be accounted for in other funds.
Special Revenue Funds are used to account for the proceeds of the specified revenue sources that are either legally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes or designated to finance particular functions or activities of the City. The reporting entity includes the following special revenue fund, which is reported as a major fund.
Streets and Road Fund – Accounts for revenues and expenditures for streets and roads related maintenance and construction.
Capital Projects Funds are used to account for resources restricted or designated for the acquisition or construction of specific capital projects or items. The reporting entity includes the following capital projects fund, of which is reported as a major fund.
Capital Projects Fund – Accounts for contributions and specific revenues and transfers from other City funds and expenditures for various capital projects as the City Council may designate.
Proprietary Funds
Enterprise Funds are used to account for business-like activities provided to the general public. These activities are financed primarily by user charges, and the measurement of financial activity focuses on net income measurement similar to the private sector. The reporting entity includes the following enterprise funds: water, sewer, and refuse funds; all of which qualify as major funds.
Sewer Fund – Accounts for activities associated with operating and maintaining the City’s sewer and surface drainage system. All activities necessary to provide such services are accounted for in this fund, including administration, operations, capital improvements, maintenance, financing and related debt service, and billing and collection.
Water Fund – Accounts for the provision of water services to residents of the City. All activities necessary to provide such services are accounted for in this fund, including administration, operations, capital improvements, maintenance, financing and related debt service, and billing and collection.
Refuse Fund – Accounts for the provision of refuse collection services to residents of the City. All activities necessary to provide such services are accounted for in this fund, including administration, operations, capital improvements, maintenance, financing and related debt service, and billing and collection.
Proprietary fund operating revenues, such as charges for services, result from exchange transactions associated with the principal activity of the fund. Exchange transactions are those in which each party receives and gives up essentially equal values. Non-operating revenues, such as subsidies and investment earnings, result from non-exchange transactions or ancillary activities.
Contributions/developer fees are reported separately and represent capital contributions charged by the City. Operating expenses are those expenses essential to the primary operations of the fund. All other expenses are reported as non-operating expenses.

Fiduciary Funds
Fiduciary Funds are established to serve as the custodian for assets held in a trustee or agency capacity for others and, therefore, cannot be used to support the City’s own programs. The reporting entity includes one private-purpose trust fund.
Successor Agency Trust Fund – Accounts for activities related to the servicing of debt of the former Redevelopment Agency.
Measurement Focus
In the Government-Wide Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities, both governmental and business-like activities are presented using the economic resources measurement focus, within the limitations of the modified cash basis of accounting, as defined below.
In the fund financial statements, the “current financial resources” measurement focus or the “economic resources” measurement focus, as applied to the modified cash basis of accounting, is used as appropriate:
All governmental funds utilize a “current financial resources” measurement focus. Only current financial assets and liabilities are generally included on their balance sheets. The operating statements present sources and uses of available spendable financial resources during a given period. These funds use fund balance as their measure of available spendable financial resources at the end of the period.
The proprietary fund utilizes an “economic resources” measurement focus. The accounting objectives of this measurement focus are the determination of operating income, changes in net assets (or cost recovery), and financial position. All assets and liabilities (whether current or noncurrent, financial, or nonfinancial) associated with their activities are reported. Proprietary fund equity is classified as net position.
The fiduciary fund utilizes an “economic resources” measurement focus. The accounting objectives of this measurement focus are the determination of additions, deductions, changes in net position, and financial position. All assets and liabilities (whether current or noncurrent, financial, or nonfinancial) associated with their activities are reported. Fiduciary fund equity is classified as net position.
Basis of Accounting
In the Government-Wide Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities, and the fund financial statements, governmental and business-like activities are presented using a modified cash basis of accounting. This is a basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) as established by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. The basis of accounting involves modification to the cash basis of accounting to report in the statement of net position cash transactions that result in an obligation that covers a period greater than the period in which the cash transaction occurred. Accordingly, long-term liabilities arising from cash transactions have been reported in the Statement of Net Position.

29 NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Basis of Presentation (Continued)
Basis of Accounting (Continued)
This modified cash basis of accounting differs from GAAP primarily because certain assets and their related revenues (such as accounts receivable and revenue for billed or provided services not yet collected, and other accrued revenue and receivables) and certain liabilities and their related expenses or expenditures (such as accounts payable and expenses for goods or services received but not yet paid, and other accrued expenses and liabilities) are not recorded in these financial statements, with the exception of long-term liabilities arising from cash transactions. In addition, other economic assets, deferred outflows, liabilities, and deferred inflows that do not arise from a cash transaction or event (such as donated assets and postemployment benefit obligations) are not reported, and the measurement of reported assets and liabilities does not involve adjustment to fair value. Lastly, the City does not recognize its investment in capital assets in its Statement of Net Position.
If the City utilized the basis of accounting recognized as generally accepted, the fund financial statements for governmental funds would use the modified accrual basis of accounting, while the fund financial statements for proprietary and fiduciary fund types would use the accrual basis of accounting. All government-wide financials would be presented on the accrual basis of accounting.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments
For the purpose of financial reporting, “cash and cash equivalents” includes all demand and savings accounts and certificates of deposit or short-term investments with an original maturity date of three months or less. This also includes deposits with the State of California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) and trust account investments in open-ended mutual fund shares.
The City has adopted GASB statement No. 72, Fair Value Measurement and Application; investments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, when required. Recurring fair value measurements are those that GASB Statement require or permit in the statement of net position at the end of each reporting period.
Restricted cash and investments includes proceeds from the 2012 refunding water revenue bonds and the 2006 water revenue bonds which are restricted for expansion of the wastewater treatment plant, upgrade of water facilities and for repayment of bonds. Additionally, proceeds from 2020 tax allocation refunding bonds are restricted for various capital projects and for payment of bonds. Restricted cash and investments also include proceeds from grants for which the funds have not been expended.
Long-term Debt
All long-term debt arising from cash basis transactions to be repaid from governmental and business-type resources is reported as liabilities in the government-wide financial statements.
Long-term debt arising from cash basis transactions of governmental funds is not reported as liabilities in the fund financial statements. The debt proceeds are reported as other financing sources and payment of principal and interest reported as expenditures. The accounting for proprietary funds is the same in the fund financial statements as the treatment in the government-wide financial statements. 2022.06.30 City of Ripon - Financial Statements with Independent Auditor's Report c

Equity Classification
Equity in the government-wide statements is classified as net position and displayed in three components:
Capital related debt – Consists of the outstanding balances of any bonds, mortgages, notes or other borrowings that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvements of capital assets.
Restricted – Consists of restricted assets reduced by liabilities with restriction constraints placed on the use either by external groups such as creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws and regulations of other governments; or law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
Unrestricted – Net amount of assets and liabilities that are not scheduled in the determination of net investment in capital assets on the restricted component of net position.
It is the City’s policy to first use restricted net resources prior to the use of unrestricted net resources when an expense is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted net resources are available.
In the fund financial statements, fund balance for governmental funds is reported in classifications that comprise a hierarchy based primarily on the extent to which the City is bound to honor constraints on the specific purpose for which amounts in the funds can be spent. Fund balance is reported in five components: non-spendable, restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned.
Nonspendable – Amounts that cannot be spent because they are either not in spendable form or legally or contractually required to be maintained intact.
Restricted – Amounts constrained regarding the use from restrictions externally imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments or by restrictions imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
Committed – Amounts constrained regarding use for specific purposes pursuant to requirements imposed by formal action of the City’s highest level of decision-making authority.
Assigned – Amounts constrained by the City’s intent to be used for specific purposes, but are neither restricted nor committed. The authority of assigning fund balance is expressed by the City Council, City manager or their designee as established in the City’s Fund Balance Policy.
Unassigned – Amounts that have not been restricted, committed or assigned to specific purposes within the General Fund. The General Fund is the only fund that reports a positive unassigned fund balance amount. Other governmental funds besides the General Fund can only report a negative unassigned fund balance amount.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City’s policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources (committed, assigned and unassigned) as they are needed. When unrestricted resources (committed, assigned and unassigned) are available for use, it is the City’s policy to use committed resources first, then assigned, and then unassigned as they are needed.
Proprietary fund equity is classified the same as in the government-wide financial statements. 2022.06.30 City of Ripon - Financial Statements with Independent Auditor's Report c

Internal and Interfund Balances and Activities
In the process of aggregating the financial information for the Government-Wide Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities, some amounts reported as interfund activity and balances in the fund financial statements have been eliminated or reclassified.
Interfund activity, if any, within and among the governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary fund categories is reported as follows in the fund financial statements:
Interfund loans and advances – Amounts provided with a requirement for repayment are reported as interfund receivables and payables.
Interfund services – Sales or purchases of goods and services between funds are reported as revenues and expenditures/expenses.
Interfund reimbursements – Repayments from funds responsible for certain expenditures/expenses to the funds that initially paid for them are not reported as reimbursements but as adjustments to expenditures/expenses in the respective funds.
Interfund transfers – Flow of assets from one fund to another where repayment is not expected are reported as transfers in and out.
Interfund activity and balances, if any, are eliminated or reclassified in the government-wide statements as follows:
Internal balances – Amounts reported in the fund financial statements as interfund receivables and payables are eliminated in the governmental and business-type activities columns of the Statement of Net Position, except for the net residual amounts due between governmental and business-type activities, which are reported as Internal Balances.
Internal activities – Amounts reported as interfund transfers in the fund financial statements are eliminated in the Government-Wide Statement of Activities except for the net amount of transfers between governmental and business-type activities. The effects of interfund services between funds, if any, are not eliminated in the Statement of Activities.
Minimum Fund Balance Policy
The City’s fiscal policy requires the City to maintain a General Fund reserve of 35% of the current year’s budgeted General Fund annual expenditures for cash flow purposes.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the modified cash basis of accounting described in Note 1 used by the City requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures; accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Budgetary Accounting
The City does not adopt an appropriated budget and is not required to adopt such a budget by law.
However, the City does adopt a non-appropriated budget annually which is approved by the City Council.
The budget for all governmental and proprietary funds is on the cash basis of accounting.
Property Taxes
Property taxes in the State of California are administered for all local agencies at the county level, and consist of secured, unsecured, and utility tax rolls. The following is a summary of major policies and practices relating to property taxes:
Property valuations are established by the Assessor of the County of San Joaquin for the secured and unsecured property tax rolls; the utility property tax rolls are valued by the State Board of Equalization.
Under the provisions of Article XIIIA of the State Constitution (Proposition 13 adopted by voters on June 6, 1978) properties are assessed at 100% of full value. From this base of assessment, subsequent annual increases in valuation are limited to a maximum of 2%. However, increases to full value are allowed for property improvements or upon change in ownership. Personal property is excluded from these limitations, and is subject to annual reappraisal.
Tax levies are limited to 1% of full value which results in a tax rate of $1.00 per $100 assessed valuation, under the provisions of Proposition 13. Tax rates for voter-approved indebtedness are excluded from this limitation.
Tax levy dates are attached annually on January 1 proceeding the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied. The fiscal year begins July 1 and ends June 30 of the following year. Taxes are levied on both real and unsecured personal property, as it exists at that time. Liens against real estate, as well as the tax on personal property, are not relieved by subsequent renewal or change in ownership.
Tax collections are the responsibility of the county tax collector. Taxes and assessments on secured and utility rolls, which constitute a lien against the property, may be paid in two installments. The first is due on November 1 of the fiscal year and is delinquent if not paid by December 10. The second is due on March 1 of the fiscal year and is delinquent if not paid by April 10. Unsecured personal property taxes do not constitute a lien against real property unless the taxes become delinquent. Payment must be made in one installment, which is delinquent if not paid by August 31 of the fiscal year. Significant penalties are imposed by the county for late payments.
The County of San Joaquin levies bills and collects property taxes and special assessments for the City.
Property taxes levied are recorded as revenue when received, in the fiscal year of the levy, due to the adoption of the “alternate method of property tax distribution”, known as the Teeter Plan, by the City of Ripon and the County of San Joaquin. The Teeter Plan authorizes the Auditor/Controller of the County of San Joaquin to allocate 100 percent of the secured property taxes billed, but not yet paid. The County of San Joaquin remits tax monies to the City in three installments as follows:
50 percent remitted in December
45 percent remitted in April
5 percent remitted in June

Disclosures Relating to Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market interest rates. One of the ways that the City manages its exposure to interest rate risk is by purchasing a combination of shorter term and longer-term investments and by timing cash flows from maturities 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 trustee) to market interest rate fluctuations is provided by the following table that shows the distribution of the City’s investments by maturity:

Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. Presented below is the minimum rating required by (where applicable) the California Government Code, the City’s investment policy, or debt agreements, and the actual rating as of fiscal year-end for each investment type.

Concentration of Credit Risk
The investment policy of the City contains limitations on the amount that can be invested in certain types of investments. The City’s investments are concentrated in external investment pools which are not subject to investment limits.
Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of failure of a depository financial institution, a government will not be able to recover its deposit or will not be able to recover collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. The custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that, in the event of failure of the counterparty (e.g. broker-dealer) to a transaction, a government will not be able to recover the value of its investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of another party. The California Government Code and the City’s investment policy do not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to custodial risk for deposits or investments, other than the following provisions for deposits. The California Government Code requires that a financial institution secure deposits made by state or local governmental units by pledging securities in an undivided collateral pool held by a depository regulated under state law (unless so waived by the governmental unit). The market value of the pledged securities in the collateral pool must equal at least 110% of the total amount deposited by the public agencies. California law also allows financial institutions to secure City deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the secured public deposits.
As of June 30, 2022, none of the City’s deposits with financial institutions were in excess of federal depository insurance limits.
A description of the City’s investments in external pools is as follows:
Investment in State Investment Pool
Although the City did not participate in any securities lending transactions or enter into any reverse repurchase agreements during the year, the City does have an investment in the California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) with fair value in the amount of $35,062,636. The total amount invested by all public agencies in the LAIF is $35,761,173,309. The Local Investment Advisory Board (Board) has oversight responsibility for the LAIF. The Board consists of five members as designated by state statute. The value of the pool shares in the LAIF, which may be withdrawn, is determined on an amortized cost basis, which is different than the fair value of the City’s portion in the pool. Included in the LAIF’s Investment Portfolio are United States Treasury and federal agency securities, International Bank for Reconstruction and Development federal agency floating rate debentures, bank notes, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, corporate floaters and bonds, time deposits, and California Assembly Bill 55 and State of California General Fund loans. Participant’s equity in the LAIF is determined by the dollar amount at the participant’s deposits, adjusted for withdrawals and distributed investment income. Accordingly, LAIF is not an investment type that can be categorized in any particular level in the fair value hierarchy. The State Treasurer’s investment policy for the LAIF and separately issued financial statements for the LAIF are available at https://www.treasurer.ca.gov/pmia-laif/pmia/index.asp.
Central San Joaquin Valley Risk Management Authority Pool The City maintains an investment of $26,445,098 in the Central San Joaquin Valley Risk Management Authority (CSJVRMA) Pool as of June 30, 2022. The total amount invested by all participants in the pool is $154,843,564. The value of the pool shares which may be withdrawn is determined on an amortized cost basis, which is different than the fair value of the City’s portion in the pool. The fair value of the City’s share of the pool is determined monthly and is $25,664,362 as of June 30, 2022. As the investment in CSJVRMA is presented at amortized costs, they are not an investment type that can be categorized in any level in the fair value hierarchy. The pool is not registered with the Securities Exchange Commission; however, it is managed by a registered investment advisor. Participation in the pool is voluntary. The pool’s average maturity is 2.73 years and the average rating is AA/Aa1. The pool consists of 49% Securities of U.S. Government Agencies, 26% U.S. Corporate Obligations and 25% other. The pool complies with the City’s investment policy. 2022.06.30 City of Ripon - Financial Statements with Independent Auditor's Report c

Advances To/From Other Funds
During the year ended June 30, 2014, City Council passed a resolution authorizing the installation of water meters on all water customer connections known as the Water Meter Implementation Program.
This resolution called for the recovery of costs related to the installation project over the period of ten years through an additional charge to customers known as a “Water Meter Surcharge” fee. To pay for the cost of the project, City Council authorized expenditures from the Capital Projects Fund with the understanding, and legal requirement, that the Water Enterprise Fund will reimburse the expenditures incurred by the Capital Projects Fund from the revenues received from the newly implement Water Meter Surcharge fee. The City anticipates collections from this revenue source to be approximately $193,000 in each fiscal year. During the year ended June 30, 2022 the Water Enterprise Fund collected approximately $192,716 in water meter surcharges which was subsequently paid back to the capital projects fund. As of June 30, 2022 the balance owed from the Water Enterprise Fund to the Capital Projects Fund was $634,124.
During the year ended June 30, 2020, City Council passed a resolution authorizing an agreement with a local business in which the City would pay for certain capital improvements to a City owned recreation facility which would then be rented by the business. These capital expenditures were paid for by the Capital Projects Fund on behalf of the General Fund with the expectation that these costs would be recovered over a ten-year period through rent proceeds received from the tenant. During the year ended June 30, 2022, the General Fund collected $82,800 in facilities rent which was subsequently paid back to the Capital Projects Fund. As of June 30, 2022 the balance owed from the General Fund to the Capital Projects fund was $1,559,921.

38 NOTE 4 – LOAN DUE TO PRIVATE-PURPOSE TRUST FUND
In 2011, the City entered into a loan agreement between the Redevelopment Agency and the City of Ripon (City). The City shall repay the Redevelopment Agency, the principal sum of up to five million dollars ($5,000,000) and pay interest on the outstanding balance of said sum at the rate of 0.4625% (the LAIF rate as of December 2010) for the first year. Thereafter, at the end of each calendar year, the interest rate may be reset according to the December LAIF rate (2.40% at December 2018). A minimum of fifty percent (50%) of all development impact (PFFP) paid in connection with building activity of the City for the same calendar year shall be applied towards the loan. Only after the interest accrued for that calendar year has been paid, shall the outstanding balance be reduced. The full payment of principal and interest outstanding was due as of February 1, 2016; however, the City has only partially repaid the total balance owed and continues to work with the Department of Finance to settle the liability.
As of February 1, 2012, the Redevelopment Agency was dissolved, and the assets and activities of the Redevelopment Agency were transferred to a private-purpose trust fund (Successor Agency Trust).

Defined Contribution Plan
The City provides pension benefits for all of its permanent full-time employees, who completed six consecutive months of employment, through the City of Ripon Money Purchase Thrift Pension Plan (the Contribution Plan), a defined contribution plan, with the exception of public safety officers. On April 4, 1990, the public safety officers elected to participate in the California Public Employees Retirement System. In a defined contribution plan, benefits depend solely on amounts contributed to the plan plus investment earnings. As of June 30, 2022, there were 67 plan members. The Contribution Plan provisions and contribution requirements are established and may be amended by the City Council. The City contributes 10% of the total compensation of all participants who agree to contribute 5% of their compensation to the plan. The City entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the Union representing its employees which requires the City to “pick up” the 5% employee contribution. All such contributions are designated as employee contributions and are fully vested. The Contribution Plan also allows additional employee contributions up to 6.6% of annual compensation, and the City will match such contributions at a 50% rate up to 3.3% of the qualified employee’s annual compensation.
The trust agreement provides that each participant directs the investments held in his/her individual account. Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings thereon. The City’s contributions for each employee and interest allocated to the employee’s account are fully vested after six years of continuous service. City contributions for, and interest forfeited by, employees who leave employment before six years of service are redistributed to all participants based on salary and vesting levels with the exception of the additional contributions up to 6.6% of annual compensation referenced above, which are immediately fully vested.
The City’s total payroll in fiscal year 2022 was $6,698,332. The City’s contributions were calculated using the base salary amount of $4,382,444 for employees participating in the City’s defined contribution plan.
The total employee and employer contributions for the year ended June 30, 2022 were $318,809 and $565,753, respectively. The employee and employer contributions represented 7.27% and 12.90% of covered payroll, respectively.
The Contribution Plan’s investments are reported at fair value in the separately issued plan financial Statements. The methods used to measure fair value may produce an amount that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective future fair values. Furthermore, although the Contribution Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.
The fair value measurement accounting literature establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This hierarchy consists of three broad levels:
Level 1 inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and have the highest priority; Level 2 inputs are from other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 inputs are unobservable and have the lowest priority. The Contribution Plan uses appropriate valuation techniques based on the available inputs to measure the fair value of its investments. When available, the Contribution Plan measures fair value using Level 1 inputs because they generally provide the most reliable evidence of fair value. Level 3 inputs were used only when Level 1 or Level 2 inputs were not available. 2022.06.30 City of Ripon - Financial Statements with Independent Auditor's Report c

Plan Descriptions
All public safety officers are eligible to participate in the City’s Safety Employee Pension Plan (the Plan), a cost-sharing multiple employer defined benefit pension plan administered by the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS). Benefit provisions under the plan are established by State statute and City resolution. CalPERS issues publicly available reports that include a full description of the pension plans regarding benefit provisions, assumptions and membership information that can be found on the CalPERS website.

California Public Employees Retirement System (Continued) Contributions
Section 20814c of the California Public Employees’ 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 basis as of June 30 by CalPERS. The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to finance the costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. The City is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees.
For the year ended June 30, 2022, the contributions recognized as part of pension expense totaled $750,973.
NOTE 9 – DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN AND TRUST
The City offers its employees a deferred compensation plan created in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 457. The Plan, available to all City employees, permits them to defer a portion of their salary until future years. The deferred compensation is not available to employees until termination, retirement, death, or unforeseeable emergency.
All amounts of compensation deferred under the plan, all property and rights purchased with those amounts, and all income attributable to those amounts, property, or rights (until paid or made available to the employee or other beneficiary) are solely the property and rights of the employees. Accordingly, the plan/trust assets have been excluded from the City’s reported assets.
NOTE 10 – RISK MANAGEMENT
The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts, errors and omissions and injuries to employees. The City participates in a pooled liability program for general liability and workers compensation through the Central San Joaquin Valley Risk Management Authority (the Authority). The pooled liability program is an insurance pool provided through the deposits of approximately 58 member cities. The Authority is not an insurance company and does not charge a premium for coverage. Audited financial statements are available from the Central San Joaquin Valley Risk Management Authority at 1750 Creekside Oaks Drive, Suite, 200, Sacramento, CA 95833.
General Liability
The liability coverage provided by the Authority is completely self-insured by its member cities and all losses and related costs are shared among the other member cities in the pool above the City’s retained limit of $50,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. The Authority determines the amount of risk each member city brings to the pool and calculates a relative risk distribution factor. As part of the retrospective adjustment process, at the time the respective program year is closed, any surplus will be refunded to the City and net deficits will be billed to the City. The City financial statements are prepared on the modified cash basis of accounting and, accordingly, a liability for net fund deficits, if any, on open program years has not been recorded. Disbursements to the Authority for general liability coverage during the year ended June 30, 2022 were $347,504.

Workers’ Compensation
The workers’ compensation coverage is provided by the Authority through a pooling feature which requires the member cities to self-insure a portion of each claim. Sharing of the risk is accomplished by forming pooled layers above the member city’s retained limit of $50,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. As part of the retrospective adjustment process, at the time the respective program year is closed any surplus will be refunded to the City and net deficits will be billed to the City. The Pooled Workers’ Compensation Program participates in Local Agency Workers’ Compensation Joint Powers Authority (LAWCX).
Members of LAWCX risk share the layer between $2,000,000 and $5,000,000 (most recent information).
Effective July 1, 2003, LAWCX joined the California State Association of Counties Excess Insurance Authority (CSAC EIA), a joint powers authority comprised of a number of individual public entities and other joint power authorities. CSAC EIA provides coverage above $5,000,000. The City’s financial statements are prepared on the modified cash basis of accounting and, accordingly, a liability for net fund deficits, if any, on open program years has not been recorded. Disbursements to the Authority for workers’ compensation coverage during the year ended June 30, 2022 were $125,992.
NOTE 11 – CONTINGENCIES
Grant Program Involvement
In the normal course of operations, the City participates in various federal or state grant/loan programs from year to year. The grant/loan programs are often subject to additional audits by agents of the granting or loaning agency, the purpose of which is to ensure compliance with the specific conditions of the grant or loan. Any liability or reimbursement that may arise as a result of these audits cannot be reasonably determined at this time, although it is believed the amount, if any, would not be material.

The City is subject to litigation arising from the normal course of business. In the opinion of the City attorney there is no pending litigation which is likely to have a material adverse effect on the financial position of the City.
NOTE 12 – REVENUE LIMITATIONS IMPOSED BY CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 218 Proposition 218, which was approved by the voters in November 1996, regulates the City’s ability to impose, increase, and extend taxes, assessments and fees. Any new increased or extended taxes, assessments and fees subject to the provisions of Proposition 218, require voter approval before they can be implemented. Additionally, Proposition 218 provides that these taxes, assessments and fees are subject to the voter initiative process and may be rescinded in the future years by the voters. 2022.06.30 City of Ripon - Financial Statements with Independent Auditor's Report c

NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
45 NOTE 13 – SUCCESSOR AGENCY TRUST FOR ASSETS OF FORMER REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY On December 29, 2011, the California Supreme Court upheld Assembly Bill 1X 26 (“the Bill”) that provides for the dissolution of all redevelopment agencies in the State of California. This action impacted the reporting entity of the City of Ripon that previously had reported a redevelopment agency within the reporting entity of the City as a blended component unit.
The Bill provides that upon dissolution of a redevelopment agency, either the city or another unit of local government will agree to serve as the “successor agency” to hold the assets until they are distributed to other units of state and local governments. On January 17, 2012, the City Council elected to become the Successor Agency for the former redevelopment agency in accordance with the Bill as part of City Resolution Number 12-7.
After enactment of the law, which occurred on June 28, 2011, redevelopment agencies in the State of California cannot enter into new projects, obligations or commitments. Subject to the control of a newly established oversight board, remaining assets can only be used to pay enforceable obligations in existence at the date of dissolution (including the completion of any unfinished projects that were subject to legally enforceable contractual commitments).
In future fiscal years, successor agencies will only be allocated revenue in the amount that is necessary to pay the estimated annual installment payments on enforceable obligations of the former redevelopment agency until all enforceable obligations of the prior redevelopment agency have been paid in full and all assets have been liquidated.
The Bill directs the State Controller of the State of California to review the propriety of any transfers of assets between redevelopment agencies and other public bodies that occurred after January 1, 2011. If the public body that received such transfers is not contractually committed to a third party for the expenditure or encumbrance of those assets, the State Controller is required to order the available assets to be transferred to the public body designated as the successor agency by the Bill.
In accordance with the timeline set forth in the Bill (as modified by the California Supreme Court on December 29, 2011) all redevelopment agencies in the State of California were dissolved and ceased to operate as a legal entity as of February 1, 2012.
After the date of dissolution, the assets and activities of the dissolved redevelopment agency are reported as fiduciary funds (private-purpose trust funds) in the financial statements of the City.
In addition, the former Ripon Redevelopment Agency transferred all housing rights, powers, assets, liabilities, duties and obligations to the Housing Authority of the County of San Joaquin by operation of law, on February 1, 2012. The Housing Authority has chosen not to take any action on this transfer because it does not believe it is obligated to accept the housing functions previously performed by the former Ripon Redevelopment Agency. The City’s position on this issue is not a position of settled law and there is uncertainty regarding this issue. It is reasonably possible that a legal determination may be made at a later date by an appropriate judicial authority that would resolve this issue. Currently the remaining housing assets and loan portfolios are currently administered by the City of Ripon until a final resolution is determined. The activity of the housing assets of the former Ripon Redevelopment Agency are also reported as fiduciary funds (private-purpose trust funds) in the financial statements of the City. 2022.06.30 City of Ripon - Financial Statements with Independent Auditor's Report c

In 2020, the Successor Agency to the Former Redevelopment Agency of the City of Ripon issued Tax allocation Refunding Bonds in the amount of $16,560,000 to refund the 2003, 2005, and 2007 series Tax Allocation Bonds previously issued by the Former Redevelopment Agency. This was done to take advantage of lower interest rates and to save on future debt service payments. Total debt service payments were reduced by $3,339,938. As a result, the 2003, 2005, and 2007 series Tax Allocation Bonds are considered fully defeased as of June 30, 2020. The 2020 bonds mature beginning on November 1, 2025 through 2036 and include variable rates of interest from 3%-4%. Those bonds maturing on or before November 1, 2030 are not subject to optional redemption prior to maturity and those maturing after November 1, 2030 are subject to redemption at the option of the Successor Agency on any date on or after November 1, 2030. Payments on the bonds are due biannually on May 1 and November 1 beginning on May 1, 2021. There is a provision whereby if the Successor Agency is unable to make payment or does not comply with bond covenants the Trustee may and shall at the written direction of the Owners of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of bonds at that time outstanding, declare the principal of all bonds outstanding and the accrued interest thereon to be due and payable immediately. The 2020 Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds are secured by a pledge of Tax Revenues derived from the Project Area and moneys in certain funds held under the bond indenture.

NOTE 14 – PUBLIC FACILITIES FINANCING PLAN
The City collects fees from various developers in accordance with its Public Facilities Financing Plan (PFFP) that is restricted to be used for fund infrastructure needed to support growth in the City. The PFFP fees are collected to fund specific facility types, which include transportation, water, wastewater, storm drain, parks and recreation, library, administration, police, and corporation yard facilities. Additional other non PFFP fees are collected, including garbage, mitigation and building permit fees, each of which is also restricted for specific purposes. Each of these funds, which are maintained in the City’s Capital Projects Fund, are required to be accounted for separately.
There are a number of PFFP funds with negative balances, which was a result of advancing certain infrastructure projects ahead of collecting the necessary funds. These negative balances, which were borrowed from other PFFP funds and restricted funds with positive balances, continue to be tracked and are charged with interest expense that are applied to the funds with positive balances.
During the most recent PFFP fee update, a consultant evaluated the funds with negative balances and determined that the fees, as currently established, allows the City to collect sufficient revenue from future development to reimburse the funds with negative balances within the timeframe of the remainder of the City’s General Plan.

FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS
BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
To the Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
City of Ripon, California
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the modified cash basis financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of City of Ripon, California (the City), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated October 26, 2022.
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements, on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or, significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. 2022.06.30 City of Ripon - Single-Audit Report

Packet Pg. 263 Attachment: 2022.06.30 City of Ripon - Single-Audit Report (22-48 : Financial Statements and Independent Auditor report) 2 Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City’s financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
Purpose of This Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

FOR EACH MAJOR PROGRAM AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL
OVER COMPLIANCE REQUIRED BY THE UNIFORM GUIDANCE
To the Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
City of Ripon, California
Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program
Opinion on Each Major Federal Program
We have audited the City of Ripon, California’s (the City) compliance with the types of compliance requirements identified as subject to audit in the OMB Compliance Supplement that could have a direct and material effect on each of the City’s major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2022. The City’s major federal programs are identified in the summary of auditor’s results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs.
In our opinion, the City of Ripon, California complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2022.
Basis for Opinion on Each Major Federal Program
We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and the audit requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Our responsibilities under those standards and the Uniform Guidance are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section of our report.
We are required to be independent of the City and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with 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 opinion on compliance for each major federal program. Our audit does not provide a legal determination of the City’s compliance with the compliance requirements referred to above.
Responsibilities of Management for Compliance
Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements referred to above and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of effective internal control over compliance with the requirements of laws, statutes, regulations, rules, and provisions of contracts or grant agreements applicable to the City’s federal programs.

d
Packet Pg. 265 Attachment: 2022.06.30 City of Ripon - Single-Audit Report (22-48 : Financial Statements and Independent Auditor report) 4 Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether material noncompliance with the compliance requirements referred to above occurred, whether due to fraud or error, and express an opinion on the City’s compliance based on our audit. 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 generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, and the Uniform Guidance will always detect material noncompliance when it exists. The risk of not detecting material noncompliance resulting from fraud is higher than for that resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Noncompliance with the compliance requirements referred to above is considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, it would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user of the report on compliance about the City’s compliance with the requirements of each major federal program as a whole.
In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, and the Uniform Guidance, we:
Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. Identify and assess the risks of material noncompliance, 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 City’s compliance with the compliance requirements referred to above and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.
Obtain an understanding of the City’s internal control over compliance relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with the Uniform Guidance, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control over compliance. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in internal control over compliance that we identified during the audit.
Report on Internal Control over Compliance
A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is less severe than a material weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.
Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section above and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in internal control over compliance. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in internal control over compliance may exist that were not identified.

MEMO
To: Honorable City Council
From: Lisa Roos, City Clerk & Finance Director
Date: 12/13/2022
Subject: Annual AB1600 Report - PFFP Capital Funds
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve the annual PFFP Report for the period ending June 30, 2022.
BACKGROUND:
The City utilizes a number of funds to track revenue and expenses used to conduct the business of the various City departments. These funds are classified by three categories - “Operating Funds”, “Capital Funds”, and “Restricted Funds”. Attached is a figure showing each of these fund categories along with the breakdown of the different funds within each of these categories.
The Capital Fund category includes three sub-categories, as described below:
General Capital Funds – At the City Council’s discretion, funds are transferred from the General Fund to be used for capital projects/purchases or to reserves. Enterprise Capital Funds – By resolution, revenue from the designated operating fund (e.g., Water Operating Fund) are transferred to the designated enterprise capital fund (e.g., Water) for equipment and infrastructure replacement. PFFP Capital Funds – The various Public Facilities Financing Plan (PFFP) Capital Funds track revenue and expenses for the different designated fund categories. The revenue is from development and restricted to fund infrastructure needed to support growth.
By law, we are required to report upon our PFFP Capital Funds, which are also referred to as AB1600 Fees. The attached Public Facility Financing Plan Annual Progress Report (“PFFP Report”) has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of California Government Code Section 66000.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
The Fund Balances Summary as of June 30, 2022 has been attached for your reference along with the PFFP Report for the Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2022.
There are few items to be noted for this PFFP Report:
1. There are certain PFFP capital funds with negative balances. This was mostly related to advancing construction of the City Hall and Library buildings to the size necessary to accommodate buildout of the General Plan. These negative balances continue to be tracked and these accounts are charged interest that is, in turn, applied to the capital accounts with positive balances.
In early 2021, Goodwin Consulting evaluated the funds with negative balances (City Hall, Library and Refuse) to determine if an adjustment was necessary to the AB1600 fee to ensure the City is collecting sufficient revenue from future development. No increases were proposed at that time. Goodwin’s analysis noted that based upon a residential growth rate of 1.5%, which is a long-term average, the City Hall Fund deficit would be eliminated in 2047, Library Fund in 2032 and Refuse Fund in the next five years.
2. An increase to the Corporation Yard fee was approved by the City Council in July 2021 based upon the Corporation Yard Master Plan and financial analysis that distributed financial responsibility between existing and future development. This increase was effective in September 2021.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
