Quarterly Financial Report
First Quarter Ending September 30, 2022
November 15. 2022
OVERVIEW
Inflation has returned as the top economic threat in the aftermath of the coronavirus crisis and there is sustained concern about a recession.
Inflation stubbornly remains at a near 40 -year high, running at 8.2 percent in September, down marginally from 9.1 percent in July. Some measures of economic activity are growing.
The national unemployment rate fell to a 50 -year low of 3.5 percent in September 2022 as businesses continued to hire from a shrinking pool of workers. Pre -pandemic unemployment rates in early 2020 also were
3.5 percent, then spiked to 14.7 percent in April 2020. The labor participation rate fell slightly, indicating fewer people were working or looking for a job. Available jobs still outnumbered job seekers by 1.7 to
1. The job market has been weakening for a few months, and wage growth also has been slowing, with average hourly earnings growing 5 percent over the past year.
The Federal Reserve is trying to extinguish the rise in prices and wrestle inflation down to a target of 2 percent, by increasing the federal funds rate. It has so far made six straight increases to its key benchmark borrowing rate that rules all other interest rates in the economy, although rates remain relatively low by historical standards. Its key rate now stands in a range of 3.75 to 4 percent, the highest in 15 years.
Policymakers are facing the challenge of fighting inflation without plunging the world into a recession.
The national economy is likely to muddle along for the next 12 months with continued inflation and slow growth, according to the UCLA Anderson Forecast's report issued in late September. California's economy is recovering from the pandemic's devastation. The State's 2022-23 budget had a record -smashing $97.5 billion surplus. In September, California began sending up to 23 million California residents "inflation relief' checks of $200 up to $1,050. These "middle-class tax refunds" will give taxpayers $9.5 billion.
In response to the Fed rate hikes, mortgage applications are slowing to the slowest pace since 1999 as rates hover near 7 percent, from less than 3 percent one year ago. Rising interest rates have triggered thousands of layoffs of real estate agents and mortgage brokers. According to the National Association of Realtors, the number of homes being sold in the United States fell nearly 20 percent between August 2021 and August 2022 in large part because of the Federal Reserve's decision to begin raising interest rates to bring down inflation. Home mortgage interest rates have doubled this year, pricing more buyers out of the market.
Suppressed homebuyer demand will contribute to a weaker California housing market in 2023, according to the California Association of Realtors. The organization predicts a decline in existing single-family home sales of 7.2 percent next year, and a retreat of 8.8 percent in median home prices to $758,600, following a projected
5.7 percent increase to $831,460 in 2022. For the year ending in August 2022, statewide home sales were down 14.9 percent.
Prices are inflicting pain on families. Gas prices were the primary irritant for households earlier this year but food prices are now the culprit. The "food at home" index — or grocery prices —jumped 13 percent in September from a year earlier. That was a slight decline from the 13.5 percent jump in August, which was the largest 12 - month increase since March 1979, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Butter and margarine were up
32.2 percent for the year ending September, and eggs were up 30.5 percent.
California's unemployment rate dipped to 3.9 percent as of September 2022, down from 4.1 percent in August but showing improvement from the 6.4 percent rate in September 2021. The state regained 99.1 percent of the 2.75 million jobs lost during March and April 2020 due to the pandemic. Santa Barbara County's unemployment rate in September was 2.7 percent with 6,100 jobless. Santa Maria's September unemployment rate was 3.4 percent, with 1,700 jobless — compared with 5.6 percent unemployed in September 2021.

GENERAL FUND
General Fund Balance. The chart below shows,
with 25 percent of the year complete, revenues are
at 17.7 percent of projections while expenditures are
at 19.7 percent of appropriations.

The beginning fund balance is an estimate because
the City's annual audit is not finalized. Revenues are
less than budget primarily because property tax
revenue is not received until December and April
each year. At the end of each fiscal year, there are
a number of projects, contracts, and transactions
not yet completed. The remaining appropriations for
those projects, contracts, and transactions are
carried forward into the current fiscal year, which
accounts for some of the reasons why
appropriations are exceeding estimated revenues.
A discussion of the changes in each category
follows in the "Major Revenue Variance" section of
this report.
The City adopted the 2021-22 Budget with the intent
of having to use approximately $2.7 million in one-
time Local Economic Augmentation Fund (LEAF) to
help balance the 2022-23 Budget

Most of the budget underrun, $1.6 million, is in the
Fire Department and is primarily due to $4.6 million
of budgeted capital projects and equipment
purchases that are expected to occur later in the
year. Budgeted capital projects include design and
construction of a training center, renovation design
of the Fire administration building, and purchase of
a second ladder truck. The Police Department is
under budget by $788,400 due to vacant positions
and capital purchases, including tasers and the
body camera system yet to be acquired. Community
Development is under budget by $103,600 because
of Code Enforcement vacancies. The Library and
Recreation & Parks programs are under budget by
$84,900 and $154,900, respectively because of
difficulties in hiring staff in the tight labor market.
Budget in the City Manager's Office is for the costs
associated with maintaining the City's mass
notification system database and will occur later in
the year. Finance budget is for the annual
independent audit of Measure U financial activity.
Through June, 89 percent of Measure U
expenditures have been spent on Public Safety, 6
percent on Youth Services, and 5 percent on Quality
of Life.

There are numerous
differences between the individual revenues received during this year and prior years. Below gives a better picture of what is driving these revenue variances.
Key variances include:
• Sales Tax. Receipts through the first quarter are approximately 9.9 percent or about $709,800 greater compared to the last fiscal year. This increase is primarily due to significantly higher fuel prices than the previous year. Restaurants and hotels, general consumer goods, and autos and transportation industry categories, also contributed to the increase in revenues. • Property Tax. The bulk of these payments are received from Santa Barbara County in December, January, April, and May of each year. The City has not received property tax as of September 30, 2022.
• Hotel/Bed Tax. Through September, receipts are approximately $69,000 or 8.6 percent more than last fiscal year and are exceeding estimates by about $80,900 or 2.6 percent. The increase in revenues is due to the tourism industry's continued recovery from the pandemic, coupled with consumers viewing Santa Maria as a very viable lodging option when visiting the Central Coast. The Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) is estimated to generate about four percent of General Fund revenues in 2022-23.
• Licenses, Permits, & Fees. Permit revenue is at 44 percent of the budget or about $1.4 million and is about $573,220 greater than the first quarter of last fiscal year. The significant volume of permits issued for accessory dwelling units, commercial tenant improvements, the extensive renovation of Los Adobes de Maria Apartments on West Boone Street, the expansion of the Cal Giant packing facility on West Stowell Road, and several new townhome apartments by Halsell Builders is contributing to this increase in revenue.
Expenditures. Through the first quarter, which ended September 30, 2022, expenditures are at 19.7 percent of budget. The below chart summarizes variances by department:

Quarterly Financial Report - First Quarter Ending September 30, 2022 Page 4 of 5 Key variances include:
• Police. Under budget by $2 million or about 5.7 percent, due to vacant positions which have resulted in salary (and benefits) savings of $1.9 million through September. • Fire. Under budget by $520,300 or 4.1 percent because several vacancies and the final payment of $653,240 for the CaIPERS side -fund payment that will occur in the second quarter of the fiscal year. • Community Development. Under budget 8.1 percent or approximately $480,700 because of vacancies in the Planning and Community Services divisions. In addition, expenditures for contractual services, in particular, the General Plan Update, will continue throughout the year and may extend into the next fiscal year.
• City Manager's Office. Under budget 9.3 percent or $873,700, due to vacant positions mostly in the Information Technology division. Contractual service agreements to occur later in the fiscal year, and pending payment of the first-quarter invoice for contractual services with Santa Barbara County for the Animal Control Services account for a portion of the budget underrun. The quarterly payments for animal control services are $215,135 totaling $850,540 for fiscal year 2022-23. • Other General Fund Departments. The Public Works Department is under budget by $327,400 or
7.5 percent because of vacancies and fewer contractual services occurring during the first quarter.
Remaining General Fund departments are under budget by 5 percent or less.

Contracts & Services is
under budget by 7.3 percent or about $731,200 due to the timing of the first quarter payment toward the Animal Services contract, as well as services scheduled to occur later in the fiscal year, including work on the General Plan Update project. Both Materials & Supplies and Maintenance & Operations are slightly under budget by $22,400 and $58,200, respectively. Capital is under budget by 18.1 percent or $96,848 primarily due to planned purchases for equipment for the Fire Department. The debt service expenditure represents the first payment of semi-annual lease financing payments for the Computer -Aided Dispatch/Records Management System (CAD/RMS).

Quarterly Financial Report - First Quarter Ending September 30, 2022 Page 5 of 5 Water/Wastewater Fund. Revenues exceeded expenditures by $2 million. Revenues increased 6.4 percent or $745,600 compared to the prior year due to higher revenues generated through increases in City Council -approved water rates and user fees. Expenses are $2.8 million less than last year primarily due to lower debt service payment of $749,180 for the 2021A Refunding Bonds compared to the prior year's first quarter payment of $3.8 million for the 1997 Certificate of Participation (97 COPs) and 2012A Refunding Bonds. The 97 COPs and 2012A Refunding Bonds were refinanced in November 2021 with the issuance of 2021A Refunding Bonds. Through the first quarter, Water and Wastewater operational expenses are under budget by 5 percent as a result of personnel savings from vacant positions and timing of payment of ongoing maintenance and contractual services agreements.
Solid Waste Fund. The Solid Waste Fund reports refuse collection and disposal activities. Through the first quarter, Solid Waste revenues exceeded expenditures by approximately $2.6 million as a result of operational costs being under budget by approximately $2.1 million or 6.1 percent, coupled with very minimal capital expenditures made during the first three months of the fiscal year. Compared to the prior year, revenues increased by $2.3 million and expenditures decreased by $606,000.
Transit Funds. The City operates the Santa Maria Regional Transit (SMRT) and Breeze Transit systems, which are funded by a combination of Federal grants, State transportation funds, and user fares. Fare revenue through the first quarter is approximately $119,800, which is about $110,400 less than fares earned through the first quarter of the prior year. This variance is due to a greater number of bus passes purchased by Santa Maria Joint Union High School District in the first quarter of the prior year. In addition, Allan Hancock College made a $60,000, one-time purchase of bus passes in July of 2021. Capital expenditures include $1.6 million for the purchase of two electric replacement buses. The farebox ratio through September 30, 2022, is 14.8 percent based on fares received and operating expenses recorded to date.

SUBJECT:
City Council
City Manager
Prepared by: Director of Finance
BUDGET AMENDMENTS — PERSONNEL AND OPERATIONAL CHANGES
RELATED TO THE FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE FIRST QUARTER ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2022
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council adopt Resolutions:
1) Approving First Quarter amendments to the 2022-23 Budget for personnel and operational changes; and
2) Approving the classification of Aquatics Safety & Education Specialist (Limited -Services) and corresponding job specification; authorizing the establishment of January 2023 Minimum Wage Increase; and approving and adopting a comprehensive Salary Schematic Schedule for all full-time and part-time employees in accordance with CaIPERS guidelines.
BACKGROUND:
As part of the City's budget process, staff presents to the City Council various personnel and operational changes in conjunction with the quarterly financial report. Staff is presenting personnel allocation and budget amendment requests for incorporation into the 2022-23 Budget.
DISCUSSION:
CITY MANAGER, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT, AND RECREATION AND PARKS /GENERAL FUND AND MEASURE U FUND
Decrease two (2) Part -Time Park Service Coordinator allocations and one (1) Limited Service Park Services Aide allocation and create one (1) Full -Time Park Service Officer position and decrease three (3) 32 -hour Part-time Park Service Officer positions and increase three (3) Full - Time Park Service Officer positions.
Increasing the Part -Time Park Service Officer position to Full -Time will assist in the recruitment and retention of Park Service Officers and will allow the department to provide better coverage on all shifts thereby enhancing the Smart City Safe City initiative. Due to vacancies and reallocation of funds from decreasing Park Service Coordinator positions, there will be no requirement for additional funding and the above action will be cost -neutral within the current approved Measure U Budget.
Create and authorize a Limited -Service lob classification of Aquatics Safety & Education Specialist.
Currently, there exists no Aquatics Safety & Education Specialist classification. This necessitates the department to hire seasonal employees into two different job classifications.
Creating the Aquatics Safety & Education Specialist Limited -Service job classification (Attachment A) will streamline the hiring of seasonal employees and will assist with the City's goal of enhancing and sustaining the recreational activities for the City's youth. Due to vacancies, there will be no requirement for additional funding and the above action will be cost -neutral within the current approved General Fund Budget.
PUBLIC WORKS/MOBILE EQUIPMENT (FLEET) FUND
Increase appropriations by $450,000 in the Mobile Equipment (Fleet) Fund and authorize the replacement of an Autocar Automated Side Loader in fiscal year 2022-23.
With the concurrence of the Utilities Department, the Public Works Fleet Division requests authorization to move the $450,000 appropriation for the purchase of a replacement Autocar Automated Side Loader listed in the Fleet Replacement Schedule from fiscal year 2023-24 to fiscal year 2022-23. The total cost of the Autocar Automated Side Loader is $450,000. An existing Side Loader has reached the end of its useful life and is no longer operational. No new funding is being requested from the Solid Waste Fund because sufficient funds have been collected through the Fleet Replacement program and the Side Loader replacement is listed in the approved budget reflecting this purchase in fiscal year 2023-24. The Side Loader will replace the current non -operational Side Loader and allow Refuse Collections operations to continue effectively.
PUBLIC WORKS/SANTA MARIA REGIONAL TRANSIT (SMRT) FUND
Increase appropriations by $900,000 in the Santa Maria Regional Transit (SMRT) Fund and authorize the purchase of six (6) replacement Paratransit Vehicles ($750,000) and two (2) Expansion Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Accessible Supervisory Vans ($150,000) in the Transit Capital Outlay Fund in fiscal year 2022-23 and authorize a corresponding reduction in the 2023-24 Mid -cycle Budget update.
The Public Works Department -Transit Division requests authorization to move $750,000 for the purchase of six (6) replacement Paratransit Vehicles and $150,000 for the purchase of two (2) Expansion ADA Accessible Supervisory Vans listed in the Transit budget from fiscal year 2023- 24 to fiscal year 2022-23 for the SMRT system. The six (6) replacement Paratransit Vehicles have met the end of their useful life and will be replaced with electric paratransit vehicles to comply with the State zero -emission vehicle mandates. The two (2) Expansion ADA Accessible Supervisory Vans can be used for additional paratransit needs and passenger intercepts in the field. The purchase of these vehicles will allow SMRT's ADA Paratransit operations to process more efficiently and effectively, as well as allow for service growth. Additionally, these vehicles will be used for SMRT's new Micro Transit Program scheduled to begin after January 2023. 2 PUBLIC UTILITIES/WATER FUND
Increase appropriations by $500,000 in the Water Fund in fiscal years 2022-23 and 2023-24 to fund temporary installation and connection of Well 6 to the header line at Well 11.
As part of the 2022-24 Budget process, the Utilities Department requested funding for the temporary installation and connection of Well 6 to the header line at Well 11, while the permanent connection is designed and constructed. This is an emergency installation to meet water supply demands during peak demand in the summer and fall months. This is also a mitigation action to offset the effect of a low State Water allocation due to the drought. The budget team recommended this request be included in the 2022-24 Budget presented to the City Council, however, the funding was not included in the Utilities appropriated budget.
ALL CITY DEPARTMENTS
Authorize the establishment of the January 2023 Minimum Wage Increase and the establishment of a Comprehensive Schematic Pay Schedule for all full-time and part-time employees in accordance with CaIPERS guidelines.
The State of California's minimum wage has increased every year since 2017 in accordance with legislation signed into law by former Governor Jerry Brown. The current 2022 State minimum wage is $15 per hour. Governor Gavin Newsom announced in May 2022 that a minimum wage of $15.50 per hour will commence on January 1, 2023.
CalPERS requires whenever there are changes to one or more pay rates, whether through the Meet and Confer process, employment contracts, new classifications, reclassifications, etc., the City update the Comprehensive Schematic Pay Schedule and present it to the City Council for review and approval. Any updates will include an effective date and date of any revisions and are to be retained by the City and available for public inspection of not less than five years. The Schedule (Attachment B) incorporates the new classification of the Aquatics Safety & Education Specialist (limited -service classification) and salary changes. Upon adoption of the Resolution by the City Council, the Schedule will be posted on the City of Santa Maria's website.
Alternative
A decision to not approve the budget amendments is an alternative to this recommendation.
However, doing so will limit the ability to maintain required operational services, and would prevent specific capital improvement projects from being completed.
Fiscal Considerations
If approved, the recommended budget amendments would result in the following changes in 2022-23 Fund Balances: 1) a decrease of $450,000 in the Mobile Equipment (Fleet) Fund, 2) a decrease of $900,000 in the Santa Maria Regional Transit (SMRT) Fund, and 3) a decrease of $500,000 in the Water Fund. Proposed personnel changes will be funded through budget savings and will not affect Fund Balance in fiscal year 2022-23. 3 Impact to the Community
The requested budget amendments will enable staff to maintain operations and meet new State regulatory requirements.
