RIVERBANK CITY COUNCIL/ LOCAL REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
AGENDA ITEM NO. 10.1
SECTION 10: PUBLIC HEARING
Meeting Date: February 28, 2023
Subject: Resolution Approving the Fiscal Year 2022-23 Mid-Year Budget Amendments
From: Marisela H. Garcia, City Manager
Submitted by: Tammy Alcantor, Assistant City Manager/Finance Director
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council consider approval of the Fiscal Year 2022-23 Mid-Year Budget Amendments.
SUMMARY
The Finance Department has performed a mid-year review of the Fiscal Year 2022-23 budget and is recommending the following: 1) budget amendments based on actual beginning reserve changes and, 2) amendments based on revenue and expenditure trends and department requests.
BACKGROUND
On June 28, 2022 the City Council adopted the FY 2022-23 Annual Operating Budget.
This operating budget was prepared using estimates and projections on anticipated revenues and expenditures and was the result of the collaboration of all of the City’s departments. For the General Fund, the City Council approved a budget reflecting a structural deficit where expenditures were projected to exceed revenues by $455,414 and was projected to end with a reserve of 33%.
An important component of a mid-year budget evaluation is determining whether projections made during the budget adoption continue to remain true as revenues are received and expenditures have been incurred. In addition, new information that is received from Stanislaus County and/or the State of California is reviewed for its potential impact to the City’s budget and amendments are requested accordingly.
Item 10.1 – CC/LRA – 2/28/2023
The following is a major fund analysis of recommended adjustments to revenues and expenditures highlighting those changes that are of significant impact to the budget. A detailed listing of all funds and accounts being adjusted is attached as Exhibit A.
General Fund (Fund 101)
Revenues
The mid-year review of all General Fund revenues resulted in a recommended net increase of $563,274, the majority of which represents an increase in Sales Tax Revenue. Significant adjustments were made to the following revenue sources:
Account Adjustment Reasoning
Property Tax Current
Secured
$100,000 Increase based on actual assessed
values.
Sales Tax $200,000 Increase in taxable retail activities VLF Swap Property Tax $175,000 Increase based on actual assessed values.
Franchise Fees $20,000 Increase based on current revenue trend.
Plan Check Fees $20,000 Increase based on current revenue trend.
Transfers In/Mgmnt Fees $38,374 Increased based on personnel changes/updates
Expenditures
Expenditure reviews consisted of evaluating all accounts to ensure that the original budget would be sufficient to meet anticipated expenditures through the end of the fiscal year. When evaluating accounts Finance has taken into consideration new information affecting expenditures as well as spending trends. This mid-year evaluation (review) has resulted in a recommended net increase in expenditures for the General Fund of $388,652.
Only Major expenditure adjustments over $10,000 or staffing-related adjustment are reflected below, please see Exhibit A for additional recommended adjustments:
Department Adjustment Reasoning
City Council $11,000 Additional cost for Centennial Events Finance $50,000 Collections backlog on closed accounts
due to COVID
Building -$70,000 Salary savings for an unfilled position +$20,000 Increase use of outside consultants
Building Maintenance +$14,600 Increase for emergency sewer repairs at City Hall South
Admin Services -$20,000 Elections cost less than budgeted Police Services +$125,000 Increase to contract cost
Item 10.1 – CC/LRA – 2/28/2023
Storm Water Admin +$140,000 Subsidy to the Gas Tax Fund for Operations (MOE Allocation)
+$13,000 Increase cost of equipment rental
Parks $0 Salary Request reallocated to personnel
cost for hired Parks Maintenance Worker
and part-time staff.
With the approved amendments, the General Fund is anticipated to end this fiscal year with a reserve of 40% or approximately $5.6 million. An adjustment of +$1,300,000 has been reflected to the General Fund’s Beginning Reserve. This increase was due to continued increases in Sales Tax, planning fees, savings in multiple department expenditures for unexpended personnel cost, and unexpended sheriff contract cost.
However, the fund continues to experience a structural deficit with expenses outpacing revenues.
The General Fund reserve as of June 30, 2023, will be as follows:
Beginning Reserve Amended 07/1/2022 $6,105,506
Amended Revenues $13,511,614
Amended Expenditures $14,018,516
Anticipated Ending Reserve 06/30/2023 $ 5,598,605(40%)
Structural Deficit $506,902
General Fund Analysis
The City must take into consideration the continued increase in expenditures, particularly the CalPERS Unfunded Liability which is projected to increase by almost $2 million by 2026.
Staff continues to recommend that the City Council consider appropriating a portion of the reserve to mitigate the impact of future expenditures (i.e. economic impacts such as COVID, unfunded liability, or capital needs).
Gas Tax Fund (Fund 102)
The Gas Tax Fund receives revenues from a variety of Highway User Taxes collected from the State of California via vehicle fuel purchases. Revenues may only be used to fund Street & Roads related maintenance and project expenses.
Revised revenue projections for the City’s Gas Tax Revenues have been received from the State of California. Updated projections are based on the increase in fuel prices experienced and the annual inflationary adjustment to all per-gallon fuel excise taxes.
This will result in a decrease of $133,707 being received by the City in Gas Tax and SB1 Funding for projects. The General Fund subsidy has been adjusted to reflect the loss of revenue.
Item 10.1 – CC/LRA – 2/28/2023
Expenditures remain steady for the Gas Tax Account which funds important services such as street maintenance repairs, street sweeping, and street light utilities. Expenditure increases are recommended in the Gas Tax Fund for the new vehicle leases through Enterprise including some one-time costs. A net increase of $36,300 in expenses has been projected for this mid-year revision.
The Gas Tax Fund reserve as of June 30, 2023, will be as follows:
Beginning Reserve 07/1/2022 Amended $196,422
Amended Revenues $1,685,021
Amended Expenditures $2,267,198
Anticipated Ending Reserve 06/30/2023 ($385,755) (17%)
Gas Tax Fund Analysis
Unfortunately, operating expenses in this fund continue to outpace the operating Gas Tax Revenues that are received by the city. For this fiscal year, the City’s General Fund will need to subsidize expenditures by approximately $219,800 in order to ensure that there are sufficient funds to continue maintaining our streets to the highest level possible. For FY 2023-24, the City will be recommending a possible decrease in services in order to avoid the need for further subsidies.
It is important to note, that Reserve funds in the Gas Tax Fund account reflect balances held from the SB1-Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account received from the State of California. These funds are allocated by the City Council via the approval of the SB 1 Expenditure List that is presented to the Council on an annual basis. It is normal for this fund to run a deficit as revenues are collected in one fiscal year and projects are completed in another.
Sewer Fund (Fund 106)
The Sewer Fund is a business-type account that has been established to fund the necessary maintenance and improvements of the sewer collection and sewer treatment systems. Revenues are received through user fees from residential, commercial, and industrial entities and may only be used for sewer-related expenditures.
The Sewer Fund beginning reserve projection is being amended to $8,033,598. A significant portion of this reserve is related to Sewer Collection improvements that will be made in future years.
Sewer revenue projections for the current fiscal year have been increased by $1,376,617 which includes $132,469 from a Water Recycle Grant and bond funds of $1,201,148 for the SiteLogiQ for the energy efficiency project.
Sewer Expenditures were increased by $1,322,548 which includes the energy efficiency project cost of $1,201,128, increases for professional service cost, additional cost for the communications upgrade project, vehicle leases, and bad debt from uncollectable utility accounts.
Item 10.1 – CC/LRA – 2/28/2023
Overall, the Sewer Fund is anticipated to end with a reserve of over 100% providing funds for future projects and addressing deferred maintenance. Future years are anticipated to continue reflecting a structurally balanced budget for operations.
In summary, the Sewer Fund is anticipated to end as follows:
Beginning Reserve Amended 07/1/2022 $8,033,598
Estimated Revenues $6,499,278
Estimated Expenditures** $6,270,670
Anticipated Ending Reserve 06/30/2023 $8,262,206 (132%) Water Fund (Fund 114)
The Water Fund is a business-type account that has been established to fund the necessary maintenance and improvements of the water distribution system. Revenues are received through user fees from residential, commercial, and industrial entities and may only be used for water-related expenditures.
The Fiscal Year 2022-23 beginning reserve is being adjusted to $2,814,686. This operating reserve is available for annual ongoing maintenance and operations costs of the Water utility fund.
Overall, the Water Fund is anticipated to end with a reserve of 38% providing funds for future projects and addressing deferred maintenance. For this Fiscal Year the Water Fund continues to run a structural deficit based on original revenue projections. Other than the Water Meter Project, the City has been unable to perform any other Capital Improvement Projects listed in the adopted Five-Year Rate Study due to the postponement of consumption billing. As the City continues to collect funds from consumption billing, it is anticipated that a Capital Reserve can be established to begin addressing the projects anticipated in the Study.
Water Revenues were slightly adjusted for some additional inspection fees. Expenditures were adjusted for the retirement of personnel and hiring of new personnel with and overall result of a decrease to expenditures of ($141,810).
In summary, the Water Fund is anticipated to end the 2022-23 fiscal year as follows:
Beginning Reserve Amended 07/1/2022 $2,814,686
Estimated Revenues $3,251,549
Estimated Expenditures $4,390,885
Anticipated Ending Reserve 06/30/2023 $1,673,350 (38%)
Public Benefit Fund (Fund 230)
Item 10.1 – CC/LRA – 2/28/2023
In June 2018, the City Council authorized the creation of the Public Benefit Fund. The intent of the fund was to ensure that all cannabis-related revenues were segregated and easily accounted for in a specific fund. In addition to establishing the fund, the City Council developed an expenditure policy which was focused on allocating the funds received for public safety (including police and code enforcement) and other projects that would provide a public benefit, including recreation.
This fund accounts for cannabis revenue which have come directly from the Development Agreements between the City and three cannabis-related businesses in the City.
Currently only two of the cannabis-related business are operating.
Ongoing costs include the funding of a Sheriff Deputy & Community Resource Officer, leasing of the camera system, and a Neighborhood Improvement Officer position.
For the current fiscal year, the Public Benefit fund status as of June 30, 2023 is as follows:
Beginning Reserve Amended 07/1/2022 $1,452,903
Estimated Revenues $377,000
Estimated Expenditures $529,870
Anticipated Ending Reserve 06/30/2022 $1,300,033 (245%) There was only one adjustment to the revenues and that was a decrease of $100,000 from Canna+Rise based on recent decreases in their sales and changes to their operations.
Public Benefit Fund Analysis
As Development Agreements are re-negotiated there is an impact to revenues that must be taken into consideration. With fixed costs such as the camera project monthly fee and funding for two law enforcement officers, and a Neighborhood Improvement Officer it is important to consider that the City should designate portions of the reserve to ensure continued funding for these ongoing costs.
Future impacts to the fund include:
1. The City has approved a fourth Development Agreement with DT California, LLC (DBA: Aeriz) which has proposed a project to be located at the current Cannery site. Aeriz has requested an amendment to its Development Agreement which will impact future revenues if approved.
2. Perfect Union dispensary has been in contact with staff indicating a plan to reopen their retail location. A date has not been confirmed at this time.
Item 10.1 – CC/LRA – 2/28/2023
OTHER FUND ACTIVITY
As part of the developer agreement for Crossroads West Subdivision the City is obligated to drill a test well. Staff has included a request of $465,000 from the System Development fees for this project.
CONCLUSION
The mid-year budget review is an opportunity for the City Departments to revisit their initial budgets and recommend adjustments based on actual activity that is occurring or on activity that is anticipated to occur. Therefore, it is recommended that the City Council approve the mid-year budget amendments as presented in Exhibit A.

The LRA has performed a mid-year review of the Fiscal Year 2022/2023 budget and is recommending amendments based on revenue and expenditure trends the first half of this budget year.
Based on this assessment, budget adjustments are proposed for the remainder of the fiscal year. These suggested changes are presented to the LRA Board for discussion, consideration, and possible amendment.
BACKGROUND
The LRA Board adopted the FY 2022/2023 preliminary proposed operating budget on June 28,2022. After a mid-year review of the budget, some fiscal assumptions have changed. An updated budget is provided with this report that shows proposed revisions to the financial plan for the remainder of the fiscal year.
After the proposed mid-year adjustments, the LRA budget will show a structural deficit of $-4,029,129. This deficit will carry over and decrease as funds become available to cover the Capital Improvement Project – Transformer Replacement in phases.

These suggested changes are presented to the LRA Board for discussion, consideration and possible amendment.
STRATEGIC PLAN
The presentation of the LRA’s mid-year budget adjustment request supports the City’s mission and reinforces the City’s core values of transparency and fiscal responsibility.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
LRA funds are currently generated from grants, Master Developer payments, and the ESCA. No General Fund revenues are used to operate the agency or for upkeep of the Riverbank Industrial Complex. By agreement with the Army, all revenues from the site must be reinvested in the property and used for the protection, repair, operation, and maintenance of the facilities. We will have a structural deficit that will carry over into the following fiscal year.

RIVERBANK CITY COUNCIL / LOCAL REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
AGENDA ITEM NO. 11.1
SECTION 11: NEW BUSINESS
Meeting Date: February 28, 2023
Subject: A Resolution Approving the Amendments to the Memorandum of Understanding Between the City of Riverbank and Cary Pope (DBA Ammo Plant Management, Inc.) Relating to the Ward Villas Affordable Housing Project
From: Marisela H. Garcia, City Manager
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council consider adopting a Resolution that will amend the existing Memorandum of Understanding between the City and Cary Pope (DBA Ammo Plant Management, Inc.) for the Ward Villas Affordable Housing Project
SUMMARY
In October 2020, the City of Riverbank approved a Memorandum of Understanding with Ammo Plant Management, Inc. for the development of the Ward Villas Affordable Housing Project. Due to significant changes in the housing market, including delays related to lack of supplies and equipment needed to complete the development, the developer has been exploring options to facilitate the completion of the project. The proposed amendments will provide the developer the flexibility necessary to continue with the project.
BACKGROUND
On October 13, 2020 the City Council approved a Development Agreement with Cary Pope (DBA Ammo Plant Management, Inc.) for the development of an approved twentyeight (28) lot single-family residential subdivision located at 2912 Ward Ave (APN 132- 036-003). The project site is in Riverbank and bound by Ward Avenue to the north; Roselle Avenue to the east; Fern Court to the south; and Don Ramon Avenue to the west.
The project site was vacant land except for an older residence which was demolished.
The site is surrounded by developed subdivisions.
As part of our on-going desires to provide affordable housing within our city, staff and the developers discussed opportunities to provide funding that would ensure that housing
Item 11.1 – CC/LRA – 2/28/2023
prices could remain low. With that thought in mind, the City Council, during their authorization and spending plan discussion for the Permanent Local Housing Assistance (PLHA) funds, prioritized the Ward Villas affordable housing project as an eligible project that would qualify for that funding. Given that direction, staff began negotiating a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Cary Pope to detail the specifics of City assistance on the project and the commitment to affordability within the project. The financial (grant related) assistance to the project provided by the City is intended to lower the overall cost for development thereby facilitating the affordability of the for purchase single family homes. This MOU was approved by the City Council on October 27, 2020.
CURRENT STATUS OF THE DEVELOPMENT
Over the past two years the developer has been working on the offsite infrastructure, such as sewer, water, streets, storm, electrical, etc. The project is paved and they are in the process of completing some final items that were identified as needing to be completed before City Council can consider accepting offsite improvements. The landscaping for the storm drain basin is currently in review and ready for installation as soon as approval is received. PG&E has coordinated the energizing of the site within 30 days. Staff is actively working with the developer to submit their Final Map for Council consideration and on the Architectural and Site Plan Review which will be presented to the Planning Commission at an upcoming meeting. Once the items are approved, the developer will move forward with construction.
PROPOSED AMENDMENTS
To continue to facilitate this development, the City and Ammo Plant Management, Inc. have been discussing amendments to the original MOU. These amendments are as follows:
1. Allow for homes to be sold to residents who earn up to 120% of Area Medium Income.
Previous agreement restricted the homes to be sold to applicants with a household income at or below 80% low to medium income levels. Unfortunately, the applicants we have received who qualify at this income level have not been able to qualify with a lender based on their debt to income ratios. In increasing the allowable income level, this would provide an opportunity for moderate income households to be eligible, including families with two working individuals.
2. Allow for the City to advance the reimbursement to the developer using other City funds, pending the approval of the State for the use of the grant funds from the Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) program.
The City allocated three (3) years of PLHA program funds for reimbursement of the offsite improvements. The City has reimbursed 2 years and is pending approval of the third year of funding. The Developer has completed the majority
Item 11.1 – CC/LRA – 2/28/2023
of the offsite improvements and being able to advance the funds would assist with cash flow.
3. The developer shall not assign its obligations under the Agreement without the consent of the City. Any Assignments of the Agreement would bind the Assignee to all of the requirements set forth in the Agreement.
The Developer has been discussing the possibility of partnering and/or selling this project to another developer. Should they decide to move forward, future developers would be required to conform to the regulations noted in the Agreement.
All other Terms and Conditions will remain as is.
STRATEGIC PLAN
Although not directly related to the City’s Strategic Plan, this development project does help to “Promote Sustainable Development” and “…Promote Job-Housing Balance”.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
There are no new financial impacts associated with the amendments to the Memorandum of Understanding. The City has committed it’s remaining Low-Moderate Income Housing Funds that were remaining from the former Redevelopment Agency and three (3) years of its PLHA Funding towards this project.

SECTION 12: WORKSHOP
Meeting Date: February 28, 2023
Subject: Yard Regulations Workshop
From: Marisela H. Garcia, City Manager
Submitted by: Donna Kenney, Planning and Building Manager Joshua Jordan, JB Anderson Land Use Planning
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that City Council listen to the presentation, take public comment, and provide staff direction.
BACKGROUND
The City of Riverbank is conducting a workshop to review and discuss zoning codes which permit and regulate the front and street-side yards of R-1 (Single Family Residential), R2 (Duplex Residential), CX-1 (Mixed Use), and PD (Planned Development) zoned lots.
The Downtown Specific Plan provides height limits for fences but is silent on fence locations for residential properties. Therefore, Staff refers to the underlying zoning on the zoning map and in the zoning code for these fence regulations.
Staff has been receiving citizen complaints about residents who have paved over 50% of their front yards, those who live in corner houses and have installed a second driveway using the corner handicap ramp as a driveway approach, street-side fences which have been moved into the 10 feet public utilities easement (PUE), and other such complaints which violate City codes. Staff is seeking direction from the City Council on whether or not they want to amend the zoning code.
