PUBLIC FACILITY FINANCING PLAN ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT
“PFFP REPORT”
2022‐2023
SUMMARY:

Public Facilities Fees are charged by local government agencies in connection with approval of development projects.  The purpose of these fees is to defray all or a portion of the cost of public facilities related to the development project.  The fees imposed on new development are based on the Public Facility Financing Plan Fee Justification Study for the City of Ripon report that includes a detailed study of the impacts of future growth on local facilities.  This report was updated by Goodwin Consulting Group on March 1, 2017 and adopted by the City Council on March 14, 2017.  In 2021, Goodwin Consulting Group reanalyzed the negative account balances and made proposals to the City Council for any increases they deemed necessary.  The only increase proposed at that time was to the Corp Yard fee, which was increased and approved by the City Council in June 2021.

A separate fund for each fee category has been established to account for the revenue collected and the expenses incurred related to each category.  A description of each of these fees is noted below:
 Corp Yard Fee ‐ This fee is charged to pay for necessary facilities at the corporation yard that are needed to support new growth.
 Library Fee ‐ This fee is charged to pay for expansion and improvements to the library that are needed to support new growth.
 Parks Fee ‐ This fee is charged so that the parks system can be expanded or improved as new growth is added to the city.
 Police Fee ‐ This fee is charged to pay for needed expansion to the police station as needed to support new growth.
 City Hall Fee ‐ This fee is charged to pay for needed expansion to city hall as needed to support new growth.
 Refuse Fee ‐ This fee is charged to purchase new equipment necessary to support new growth.  Storm Drain Fee ‐ This fee is charged to provide for facilities necessary to handle storm water runoff to support new growth.
 Transportation Fee ‐ This fee is charged to provide for necessary improvements to the transportation system that are needed to support new growth.  Wastewater Fee ‐ This fee is charged to provide for expansion of the sewer system to support new growth.
 Water Fee ‐ This fee is charged to pay for expansion of the water system that is necessary to support new growth.

State law (adopted as 1987’s AB1600 and commonly referred to as “AB1600 requirements”) requires any local agency that imposes development impact fees to prepare an annual report providing specific information about those fees.  State law requires the City prepare and make available to the public the PFFP report within 180 days after the last day of each fiscal year.  The City Council must review the annual report at a regularly scheduled public meeting not less than fifteen days after the information is made available to the public.

According to the law, the City is required to report the following items:

A. A description of the fee
B. The amount of the fee
C. The beginning and ending balance of each account
D. The amount of the fees collected and the interest earned E. An identification of each public improvement of which fees were expended and the amount of the expenditures of each improvement, including the total percentage of the cost of the public improvement that was funded with fees.

F. An identification of an approximate date by which the construction of the public improvement will commence if the City determines that sufficient funds have been collected.

G. A description of each interfund transfer or loan made H. The amount of refunds made.

CONCLUSION:

In accordance with the provisions of the California Government Code, I hereby submit the Public Facilities Financing Plan Annual Progress Report (“PFFP Report”) for fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.

This report provides the information required by Government Code Section 66006(b)(1).  It is being submitted to the City of Ripon City Council for review at a public meeting on December 12, 2023.  The report was available to the public at least 15 days prior to the meeting.

MEMO
To: Honorable City Council
From: Christiana Giedd, Associate Civil Engineer
Date: 12/12/2023
Subject: Utility Rate Study - Enterprise Funds Year 4 Update RECOMMENDED ACTION:

Staff is recommending the City Council approve implementing the February 1, 2024 rate increases for the water (2%), sewer (4%) and garbage (4%) enterprise funds that were originally approved in the 2020 5-Year Rate Study.

BACKGROUND:

The City uses “enterprise funds” to account for the financial activities of the water, sewer, and garbage services provided to the residents and businesses located in Ripon. Each enterprise fund is an independent budget that operates much like a private business enterprise. Each fund collects the revenue from the utility customers to fund the operations of the utility service along with the replacement of capital items.

In accordance with Proposition 218, in 2020, the property owners within the City limits approved rate increases of the water, sewer, and garbage enterprise funds to take effect February 1st of years 2021-2025, as summarized in Table 1.

Table 1 - 2020 5-Year Rate Study Proposed Rate Increases Utility 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025
Water 2% 2% 2% 2% 2%
Sewer 4% 4% 4% 4% 4%
Garbage 5% 5% 5% 4% 4%
Total 3.5% 3.5% 3.5% 3% 3%
The City Council has directed staff to bring back each year prior to February 1st, a financial evaluation of each enterprise fund to determine if the full rate increase that was initially approved is necessary for each enterprise fund.

5.A
Packet Pg. 240
DISCUSSION:

The rate increases included in the 2020 5-Year Rate Study were implemented for the first three years of the 2020 5-Year Rate Study, as proposed. Tom Pavletic with Municipal Financial Services (MFS) has prepared the financial evaluation for the February 1, 2024 enterprise fund rate adjustments, which is attached. Below is a summary of the current projected financials for each of the enterprise funds evaluated as compared to the 2020 5-Year Rate Study:
 Water Fund: The operating expenses have increased significantly from what was initially projected in the 2020 5-Year Rate Study. In Fiscal Year 2022-23, the operating expenses increased 6 percent above what was initially projected and in Fiscal Year 2023-24, it was a 15 percent increase. These increases are largely a result of inflation.

As a result, the operating balance at the end of the 5-year rate study period is projected to be $740,000, which is $670,000 lower than what was initially projected. All recommended transfers to the Water Enterprise Capital Fund are projected to be made over the 5-year rate study period.
 Sewer Fund: The Sewer Fund continues to operate near the 2020 5-Year Rate Study projected cash flow. Operating expenses have experienced an increase, like the Water Fund, but these increases were offset by additional revenue from commercial and industrial accounts.

The operating balance at the end of the 5-year rate study period is projected to be $740,000, which is $160,000 higher than what was initially projected. All recommended transfers to the Sewer Enterprise Capital Fund, including for future wastewater treatment plant expansion, are projected to be made over the 5-year rate study period.  Garbage Fund: The Garbage Fund has experienced a significant increase in operating expenses largely a result of unanticipated regulatory requirements. For Fiscal Years 2023-24 and 2024-25, operating expenses have increased $190,000 (8%) and $290,000 (12%) from what was projected in the 5-Year Rate Study, respectively.

As a result, the operating balance at the end of the 5-year rate study period is projected to be $110,000, which is $630,000 lower than what was initially projected. At the end of the 5-Year Rate Study, only $740,000 of the originally projected $1,400,000 is projected to be transferred to the Garbage Enterprise Capital Fund.

Even though the operating balance is lower than the recommended target balance, this fund has no debt, which allows the City to maintain a lower balance without conflicting with any bond requirements, but in the long term, this will need to be addressed along with the regulatory increases and lower than anticipated capital transfers.

Staff is recommending the City Council approve implementing the full rate increases approved in the 2020 5-Year Rate Study for February 1, 2024. The combination of water (2%), sewer (4%) and garbage (4%) rate increases have an overall effect of a 3.0% utility rate increase on the monthly bill of an average single-family customer.

The graph below shows a single-family monthly bill with the approved 2024 rate increases included.

Figure 1 – Evaluation of Single-Family Monthly Bills
The average monthly bill projected for a single-family customer will increase from $115.76 to $119.38, a total of $3.62 a month.

City Council has also directed staff to begin tracking the regulatory expenses associated with each enterprise fund. For Fiscal Year 2022-23, staff has estimated the expense associated with complying with the various regulatory requirements from the State of California and compared to the previous fiscal year, as shown in the table below:

Total $333,200 $363,460 $5.50 4.9% $5.99 5.2%
In Fiscal Year 2022-23, the average single-family customer paid an estimated $5.99 per month due to regulatory expenses, which equates to 5.2 percent of an average resident’s utility bill.

A Water, Sewer and Garbage Funds Rates Study was completed in November 2020 (2020 Rates Study).

Based on findings and recommendations in the 2020 Rates Study, the City Council approved Resolution No. 20-55 which adopted garbage, wastewater and water rate increases to be effective February 1st of 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025 (five years). This Technical Memorandum (TM) summarizes the results of our review and evaluation of the city of Ripon’s cash flow for the Garbage, Wastewater and Water Enterprise Funds and whether rate increases scheduled for February 1st of 2024 should be implemented.

SECTION 1. INTRODUCTION
Maximum garbage, wastewater and water rates adopted in Resolution No. 20-55 to become effective February 1st of 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025 are listed in the Table 1 (Water), Table 2 (Wastewater) and Table 3 (Garbage). All rates adopted for February 1, 2021, February 1, 2022, and February 1, 2023, were implemented as scheduled. Rate increases adopted for implementation on February 1, 2024, are evaluated in this TM.

Evaluation of the previously adopted rates involves only the update of projected expenditures, revenue from rates, number of accounts and water use. Any changes to reduce rates previously adopted would not trigger a requirement for Proposition 218 procedures or a protest ballot process.

SECTION 2. EVALUATION OF WATER RATES AND CASH FLOW
Cash flow (expenditures, and target and ending fund balances); coverage ratios; and the percent increase in average Single Family monthly bills are shown below for the 2020 Rate Study (top figure) and the current evaluation (bottom figure). Note that current projections of the debt service coverage ratio exceed the technical minimum of 1.25 times Net Revenues in all years.

The current evaluation does not examine the impact on cash flow or rates related to operating and capital costs for a new water supply connection to the South San Joaquin Irrigation District (SSJID) water system.

Revenue from water use sales is a significant variable in the development of projected cash flow. Annual revenue from water use sales is typically approximately 40 percent of revenue from water rates. Projections of water sales used in the 2020 Rate Study and in the current evaluation are compared in the figures below.

Projected water use for FY27 in the current evaluation is 900 million gallons. Projected water use for FY27 in the 2020 Water Study was 952 million gallons. Projected water use for FY27 in the current evaluation is approximately 50 million gallons lower (5.5 percent) than projected in the 2020 Water Study and incorporates a higher rate of water conservation over the next five years.

The ending fund balance in FY25 (at the end of the review time frame) is projected to be approximately $670,000 less than projected in the 2020 Rate Study.

The decrease is due to the following changes in cash flow over the remaining FY24 – FY25 period:
• The beginning balance for FY24 was decreased by approximately $460,000 to reflect the cumulative impact of expenditures exceeding revenues over the previous years; • Revenues are projected to decrease by approximately $100,000 due to water conservation; • Operating expenditures are projected to increase by approximately $560,000 due to increased costs for operating expenses; and
• Transfers to capital reserves are decreased by $430,000.

Based on review of the updated data, it is recommended that the City implement the rate increases adopted for implementation on February 1, 2024.

• The beginning balance for FY24 was increased by approximately $160,000 to reflect the cumulative impact of expenditures exceeding revenues over the previous years; • Revenues are projected to increase by approximately $160,000 due to a small increase in projected revenue from commercial and industrial accounts; and

The ending fund balance in FY25 (at the end of the review time frame) is projected to be approximately $630,000 less than projected in the 2020 Rate Study. The decrease is due to the following changes in cash flow over the remaining FY24 – FY25 period:
• The beginning balance for FY24 was decreased by approximately $230,000 to reflect the cumulative impact of expenditures exceeding revenues over the previous years; • Revenues are projected to decrease by approximately $220,000 due to a lower number of residential cans than was used in the 2020 Rate Study;
• Operating expenditures are projected to increase by approximately $480,000 due to increased costs for fuel and disposal fees; and
• Transfers to capital reserves are decreased by $400,000.

Based on review of the updated data, it is recommended that the City implement the rate increase adopted for implementation on February 1, 2024.

Rate increases forecast for FY26 and FY27 – the two-years following the five-year rate increases adopted based on the 2020 Rates Study – are changed from 1% per year to 6% per year. The change in forecast increases is in response to projected ending balances that are significantly below projected target ending balances for FY24 – FY25.
