• The Seaside Police Department is proud to present the Interaction of the Month Award for January 2025 to an outstanding team who went above and beyond to ensure our community’s safety and understanding of new parking regulations. • On January 1st, 2025, the Daylighting Law went into effect, prohibiting vehicles from parking within 20 feet of an intersection with a crosswalk, painted or not.

While this law had a significant impact, there was a need for clearer communication about restricted areas. Taking initiative, a dedicated team from the Seaside Police Department decided to request permission from City Council to begin painting red curbs in high-traffic areas throughout the city to help mark the new restricted parking zones. Throughout January, they worked hard, painting numerous areas to improve street visibility and educate the community. In March, the team will present a plan to the Traffic Advisory Committee to receive feedback on additional areas that need attention. Their proactive actions will make our streets safer and more easily understood by the public. • For their dedication and teamwork, we are honored to present Parking Compliance Specialists Klotz and DeLeon, Vehicle Abatement Officer Montes, and Animal Control Officer Kjellgren with the Seaside Police Department’s Interaction Packet Page 17

THE CITY OF SEASIDE AND THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY OF THE

Program Description
The Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), a voluntary program created by statute, began in 1977 as an investment alternative for California's local governments and special districts and it continues today under Treasurer Fiona Ma's administration. The enabling legislation for the LAIF is Section 16429.1 et seq. of the California Government Code.

This program offers local agencies the opportunity to participate in a major portfolio, which invests hundreds of millions of dollars, using the investment expertise of the State Treasurer's Office professional investment staff at no additional cost to the taxpayer.

The LAIF is part of the Pooled Money Investment Account (PMIA). The PMIA began in 1955 and oversight is provided by the Pooled Money Investment Board (PMIB) and an in-house Investment Committee. The PMIB members are the State Treasurer, Director of Finance, and State Controller.

The Local Investment Advisory Board (LIAB) provides oversight for LAIF. The Board consists of five members as designated by statute. The State Treasurer, as Chair, or her designated representative, appoints two members qualified by training and experience in the field of investment or finance, and two members who are treasurers, finance or fiscal officers or business managers employed by any county, city or local district or municipal corporation of this state. The term of each appointment is two years or at the pleasure of the Treasurer.

All securities are purchased under the authority of Government Code Section 16430 and 16480.4. The State Treasurer's Office takes delivery of all securities purchased on a delivery versus payment basis using a third party custodian. All investments are purchased at market and a market valuation is conducted monthly.

Additionally, the PMIA has Policies, Goals and Objectives for the portfolio to make certain that our goals of Safety, Liquidity and Yield are not jeopardized and that prudent management prevails. These policies are formulated by Investment Division staff and reviewed by both the PMIB and the LIAB on an annual basis.

The State Treasurer's Office is audited by the Bureau of State Audits on an annual basis and the resulting opinion is posted to the State Treasurer’s Office website following its publication. The Bureau of State Audits also has a continuing audit process throughout the year. All investments and LAIF claims are audited on a daily basis by the State Controller's Office as well as an internal audit process.

Under Federal Law, the State of California cannot declare bankruptcy, thereby allowing the Government Code Section 16429.3 to stand. This Section states that "moneys placed with the Treasurer for deposit in the LAIF by cities, counties, special districts, nonprofit corporations, or qualified quasi-governmental agencies shall not be subject to either of the following: (a) transfer or loan pursuant to Sections 16310, 16312, or 16313, or (b) impoundment or seizure by any state official or state agency." During the 2002 legislative session, California Government Code Section 16429.4 was added to the LAIF's enabling legislation. This Section states that "the right of a city, county, city and county, special district, nonprofit corporation, or qualified quasi-governmental agency to withdraw its deposited moneys from the LAIF, upon demand, may not be altered, impaired, or denied in any way, by any state official or state agency based upon the state's failure to adopt a State Budget by July 1 of each new fiscal year." The LAIF has grown from 293 participants and $468 million in 1977 to 2,362 participants and $26.7 billion at the end of December 2019.

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 8.D.

TO: City Council
FROM: Greg McDanel, City Manager
BY: Haroon Noori, Administrative Analyst II
DATE: March 20, 2025
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO

ENTER INTO A COLLECTION AGREEMENT WITH
HOMEAWAY.COM, INC FOR THE COLLECTION OF TRANSIENT

OCCUPANCY TAX ON SHORT-TERM RENTALS

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a Tax Collection Agreement with HomeAway.com, Inc., at no cost to the City, for the collection of the City's Transient Occupancy Tax on short-term rentals, where the host (owner or primary tenant) uses a hosting platform provided by HomeAway.com, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

BACKGROUND
On July 7, 2019, the City executed a Voluntary Collection Agreement (VCA) with Airbnb, effective August 1, 2019. Under this Agreement, AirBnB collects taxes due from rentals made through its platform and remits them to the City directly. Other operators of Short-Term Rentals must submit payment individually. Since the agreement, Airbnb has remitted Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) to the City on behalf of its Short-term Rental hosts using its hosting platform.

In an effort to expand the TOT taxable base to increase overall TOT revenues, City staff engaged HomeAway regarding its interest in entering into a VCA on behalf of the hosts using its service. Homeaway operates under the business name of its subsidiary VRBO.

Through coordination with the City Attorney's Office, Finance, and Risk Management Departments, City staff negotiated and finalized a VCA with HomeAway’s legal counsel on February 21, 2025. HomeAway will start collecting TOT effective May 1, 2025 if the City Council approves the VCA on March 20, 2025.

Packet Page 44

Item No. 8.D. Page 2 of 3

DISCUSSION
HomeAway is a corporation which provides an internet platform through which third parties desiring to rent out accommodations (hosts) and third parties desiring to book accommodations (guests) have the opportunity to locate each other, communicate, negotiate, and book a transaction pursuant to an agreement between the hosts and guests. For the purposes of this VCA, HomeAway agrees to act as a limited collection and remittance agent of the hosts to the extent such hosts offer or rent accommodations to guests in Seaside via the HomeAway platforms that are subject to the City's TOT. HomeAway assumes all responsibilities for the collection and remittance of the TOT pursuant to Chapter 3.24 of the Seaside Municipal Code for applicable transactions on its platforms in the City, starting on the effective date of the VCA once finalized.

Staff estimates the TOT revenue from Airbnb hosts currently accounts for more than 90% of all short-term rental revenue received by the City. While Airbnb likely represents a majority of hosts in the City, staff believes entering into this VCA with HomeAway will capture a large portion of any remaining TOT shortfall where individual hosts have collected but failed to remit TOT to the City. Since VRBO is a subsidiary of HomeAway, the City would have tax collection agreements involving three of the major hosting platforms with listings in the City. In addition to improving compliance, this contract would reduce the amount of staff effort needed to pursue collection of these funds as well.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
CEQA: Not a Project, Agreements/Contracts (New or Amended) resulting in no physical changes to the environment.

FISCAL IMPACT
The exact fiscal impact of this VCA is currently unknown. Annual TOT from short-term rentals was approximately $1,076,009 in Fiscal Year (FY) 2023-2024. It is expected that revenue will increase due to HomeAway collecting and remitting funds for all of their platform hosts, eliminating the opportunity of non-compliance by hosts.

Exhibit “A” – HomeAway.com Inc Voluntary Collection Agreement Packet Page 47

VOLUNTARY COLLECTION AGREEMENT
THIS VOLUNTARY COLLECTION AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is dated ______, 2025 and is between HOMEAWAY.COM, INC., a Delaware corporation ("HomeAway"), and the City of Seaside, California (the “City”). Each party may be referred to individually as a "Party" and collectively as the "Parties.”
HomeAway and its subsidiaries operate an internet-based platform that allows homeowners ("Homeowners") to advertise the availability of their properties to travelers ("Guests") seeking accommodations through Vrbo.com and localized Vrbo websites operating worldwide (“HomeAway Platform”).

HomeAway and the City enter into this Agreement voluntarily in order to facilitate the collection and remittance of the City’s Transient Occupancy Tax imposed under Chapter 3.24 of the City’s Municipal Code (the “Tax”) by Homeowners and Guests on the HomeAway Platform for occupancy of accommodations located in the City of Seaside in accordance with this Agreement as follows:

1. With respect to any transaction between a Homeowner and a Guest booked on and for which payment is completed on the HomeAway Platform for accommodations for which the Tax is due (“Booking Transaction”), and during the period in which this Agreement is in effect (as defined below), and solely pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, HomeAway agrees to collect and remit the Tax.

2. The Tax shall be collected and remitted at the applicable rates by HomeAway based upon the entire amount charged by the Homeowner in connection with the Booking Transaction, including but not limited to the following fees charged by a Homeowner: rental fee, booking fee, cleaning fee, property damage fee, and any other use-related fee; but excluding refundable damage deposits. Tax shall not be collected on the Traveler Service Fee (“TSF”) charged by HomeAway to Guests. HomeAway shall file returns on the form and by the due dates described in the Code or as agreed between the parties in writing. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed by the Parties, that HomeAway will file returns and remit any Tax collected, based on the date the stay commences and not the date of the booking transaction.

3. HomeAway agrees to commence collecting the Tax starting on May 1, 2025 (the "Effective Date) and remitting any Tax collected in accordance with Paragraph 2. For the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement to collect shall not extend to any period or transaction booked prior to the Effective Date or after the termination of this Agreement, or to any user's transaction completed through any means, method or platform other than the HomeAway Platform.

4. The City agrees to confirm its jurisdictional boundaries with HomeAway’s third-party tax content provider within 90-days of the Effective Date. The content provider is Vertex and boundaries can be verified by emailing [email protected]. If the City fails to confirm the boundaries, the City agrees to accept the boundaries as determined by HomeAway.

Packet Page 48
2 5. On a prospective basis upon the Effective Date of this Agreement, and during any period in which this Agreement is in effect, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, HomeAway agrees contractually to assume liability for any failure to report, collect, and/or remit the correct amount of the Tax for any Booking Transaction, including, but not limited to, penalties and interest, lawfully and properly imposed in compliance with law. Nothing contained herein nor any action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including but not limited to the collection or remittance of the Tax, shall impair, restrict, or prevent HomeAway from asserting that any Tax and/or penalties, interest, fines, or other amounts assessed against it were not due or are the subject of a claim for refund under applicable law, or from enforcing any and all rights accorded to it pursuant to law.

6. During any period in which this Agreement is in effect, and without waiving any audit rights provided to the City, with respect to any transaction for which the Tax is due and paid pursuant to this Agreement, the City agrees to audit HomeAway in the manner provided in the Code, except that: (a) HomeAway will not be required on the basis of this Agreement to disclose the Homeowner or Guest name at issue; (b) the City shall not, directly or indirectly, audit any individual Guest or Homeowner relating to such transactions; and (c) if there are errors in the jurisdictional boundaries, HomeAway will provide the URL of the property listing after the City updates the boundaries with HomeAway’s third-party content provider in accordance with Paragraph 4. HomeAway will provide the property address associated with each Booking Transaction in response to a valid information document request formally issued by the City as part of an audit of HomeAway’s books and records pursuant to Section 3.24.100 of the City’s Municipal Code. The City shall complete any audit of HomeAway’s books and records within the time period permitted under the applicable statute of limitations, including any waivers mutually agreed to by HomeAway and the City. Nothing in this paragraph prevents the City from auditing an individual who (or entity that) happens to be a Homeowner based upon transactions that the City learns of independently.

7. Upon the City’s request in connection with an audit, HomeAway shall submit all applicable transaction data based on reservation ID, or other type of transaction ID, as maintained by HomeAway in its ordinary course of business. The Parties agree that HomeAway is not required, on the basis of this Agreement, to produce any Homeowner or Guest name relating to any transaction in connection with an audit or otherwise, except pursuant to a lawfully issued subpoena.

8. During any period in which this Agreement is in effect, and on the condition that HomeAway is in compliance with its obligations under this Agreement, and solely with respect to Booking Transactions, said Homeowner shall not be required to individually register with the City to collect, remit and report the Tax. However, nothing in this Agreement shall relieve Guests or Homeowners from any responsibilities with respect to the Tax, including, without limitation, any obligation to register with the City or to collect, remit, and report the Tax for transactions completed through any other means, method, device, or platform, or restrict the City from investigating or enforcing any provision of applicable law against any such person or entity for any occupancy arranged directly or indirectly through any other means.

9. The City agrees, for the purpose of facilitating this Agreement, that it shall not make any assessment, supplemental assessment, or claim for the Tax as to HomeAway for any period prior Packet Page 49
3 to the Effective Date of this Agreement; and it releases and discharges any claims against HomeAway (and its present or former: successors, direct or indirect members, parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, legal representatives, insurers, employees, officers, directors and shareholders) from any and all past, present, or future assessments, causes of action, claims, demands, expenses, damages, or losses, of whatever kind or nature, known or unknown, asserted or unasserted, in law or equity, whether statutory or common law, which existed, accrued, or arose related to the Tax for the period preceding the Effective Date of this Agreement.

10. Unless required by law or court order, any and all tax returns, data, records, documents or information, including property address information , provided to the City in connection with this Agreement, including but not limited to any audit, shall be deemed confidential and shall not be shared with any third party, including but not limited to any other governmental agency or any other jurisdiction.

11. This Agreement is solely for the purpose of facilitating the administration and collection of the Tax due for Booking Transactions. It is expressly understood and agreed by the Parties that neither Party has made any concessions regarding the merits of its respective positions nor the merits of the other Party’s positions with respect to the collection of the Tax addressed in this Agreement.

12. The City agrees to work with HomeAway to answer any questions received from Homeowners and the public about HomeAway’s tax collection and remittance process under this Agreement. If requested by the City, HomeAway will provide information to the City to be used by the City to answer questions from Homeowners, travelers and others.

13. No modification of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by both parties.

14. This Agreement may be terminated by HomeAway or the City upon 30 days’ written notification to the other Party. Any termination under this Paragraph shall not affect the duty of HomeAway to remit to the City any Tax collected from Guests up through and including the effective date of termination of this Agreement, even if not remitted by HomeAway to the City as of the date of termination.

15. This Agreement, its construction and any and all disputes arising out of or relating to it, shall be interpreted in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of California without regard to its conflict of law principles.

16. This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, and supersedes all prior negotiations, agreements, and understandings with respect thereto.

17. This Agreement is not binding until executed by HomeAway and the City. The Parties represent and warrant that they each have the legal authority to enter this Agreement, that the person executing the Agreement of behalf of either Party is authorized to do so, and that the Agreement shall be binding and enforceable when duly executed and delivered by each Party.

Further, the reproduction of an original signature by electronic means shall be deemed to be an original signature.

19. This Agreement has been jointly prepared by the Parties hereto, and shall not be construed more strictly against either Party.

20. Except as otherwise required by state or federal law or order of a tribunal of competent jurisdiction, the Parties agree that each shall treat as confidential all information furnished to it by the other Party under this Agreement, including but not limited to the existence and terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that a Party may disclose the confidential information of the other Party to those of its employees, consultants (including professional advisers) and affiliates that require access to such confidential information in order to permit such Party to exercise its rights and perform its obligations hereunder. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the disclosure by a Party or its employees, contractors, or affiliates of an item of confidential information that is made public by the disclosing party or released from confidential treatment by written consent of the disclosing Party.

21. Neither Party may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other Party which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, HomeAway may assign this Agreement in its entirety without the City’s consent in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets provided the assignee has agreed to be bound by all of the terms of this Agreement and all Tax and all other sums due at the time of the attempted assignment have been paid in full. Any attempt by a Party to assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement in breach of this section shall be void and of no effect.

The Annual Progress Report (APR) includes the status of the general plan, progress on its implementation, progress on meeting the City's share of Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA), and the degree to which the approved general plan elements comply with California law.

II. LEGISLATIVE BODY REVIEW
The Calendar Year 2024 APR is currently scheduled for City Council consideration on March 20, 2025.

Ill. UPDATES TO THE GENERAL PLAN
The City's current General Plan was last comprehensively updated on May 16, 2024. The Housing Element was certified by HCD on March 27, 2024. The City’s updated General Plan including the Housing Element can be found on www.ci.seaside.ca.us/269/Seaside-GeneralPlan. IV.

ATTACHMENT A
City continued to implement housing programs and projects to ensure the housing needs of residents were addressed while complying with all state and federal requirements. During 2024, HCD certified the City's Housing Element to accommodate the 2023-2031 planning period and the 6th RHNA cycle. Any sites identified in this report or rezoned will reflect in this and future progress reports. Additionally, the City did not have any sites subject to no net loss requirements. There are 34 properties in the sites inventory identified or rezoned to accommodate shortfall-housing need for the 6th cycle planning period. The City continues to facilitate affordable housing developments, including diverse housing types such as accessory dwelling units, and live work spaces to enhance accessibility and affordability for the community at large. VII. COMPLIANCE WITH OPR'S GENERAL PLAN GUIDELINES The General Plan is comprised of the eight State-mandated elements, and four additional optional chapters (i.e., Economic Development, Healthy & Sustainable Community, Community Facilities & Infrastructure, and Implementation).

VIII. AMENDMENTS TO GOALS, POLICIES, OBJECTIVES, AND STANDARDS The City's current General Plan was last comprehensively updated on May 16, 2024. The Housing Element was certified by HCD on March 27, 2024. The City’s updated General Plan including the Housing Element can be found on www.seaside2040.com.

IX. SUMMARY OF IMPLEMENTATION OF GENERAL PLAN
a. Amendment of Goals, Policies, Objectives, and Standards On December 19, 2024 the City Council approved a Zoning Ordinance Amendment (ZOA-24-02) to allow residential and mixed-use projects in the Commercial Mixed Use Zoning District (CMX) and a zoning map amendment to change the zoning of one property in the Site Inventory from Community Commercial to CMX. This achieved compliance with the Housing Element requirement that the City complete a rezoning of the Sites Inventory by the end of 2024 to implement the proposed Land Use policy, making housing allowed by-right rather than through a discretionary permit process. b. General Plan Amendments Approved During Prior Calendar Year On May 16, 2024, the City of Seaside City Council approved General Plan Amendment GPA-24-01 which repealed and replaced the entirety of the General Plan, excluding the Housing Element, with a new General Plan, entitled Seaside 2040. This satisfied the Housing Element requirement that a rezoning of the Sites Inventory be complete by the end of 2024 to implement the proposed Land Use policy, making housing allowed by-right rather than requiring a discretionary process. c. Major Development Applications Approved
On January 10, 2024, the Planning Commission approved a request (AR-23-16) from KB Bakewell, for design review associated with a new 21-unit multifamily residential building located at 1620 Broadway Avenue. Subsequently, on March 7, 2024 the City Council approved an affordable housing agreement that deed restricted all 21 units for qualified very-low income households. This site is part of the Housing Element sites inventory.

Assisted Low Income Housing
In 2021, the City created an affordable housing development non-profit called Seaside Housing Collaborative whose mission is to conceptualize, plan, entitle, construct, acquire, sell or lease affordable housing up to and including workforce housing within the City of Seaside. - Monitor Units at Risk: The City will keep in regular contact with the five projects with affordable units to monitor any change in status or intent to maintain the projects as affordable housing. The City will also ensure that no affordable rental unit is allowed to convert to a condominium without meeting the requirements of the City’s adopted condominium conversion ordinance in Chapter 17.42 of the Zoning Ordinance. - Provide Tenant Education: If any of these projects files a Notice of Intent to opt out of affordability covenants, the City will work with tenants to inform them of their rights under federal and State regulations, including receiving proper noticing. New State law requires noticing the tenants three years, one year, and six months ahead of conversion.
- Work with Potential Priority Purchasers: Work with Seaside Housing Collaborative to pursue acquisition/rehabilitation opportunities.

Meetings are held monthly on the third Wednesday of each month at 10:00 AM in the Black Horse room at the Oldemeyer Center. Through collaboration with local landlords and community involvement, the SHC provides information and direction on identifying opportunities for affordable housing opportunities.

Ongoing. City staff continues to host monthly Board Meeting with the SHC Directors. City Staff worked on identifying potential development sites from a list of the City Owned parcels.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a second amendment to the professional services agreement with West Coast Code Consultants, Inc. (WC3) for $235,482.09 for Building and Safety Services.

BACKGROUND
In March 2024, the City executed a Professional Services Agreement with West Coast Code Consultants Inc. (WC3) to provide specialized services for the Building and Code Enforcement Department. These services are for, but not limited to, plan checks, building code standards, architecture, structural engineering, fire safety, accessibility (CASP - Certified Access Specialist), energy efficiency, mechanical systems, electrical systems, and plumbing.

In addition, WC3 provides critical support such as an onsite contracted Chief Building Official. Initially, the agreement was executed with a budget of $100,000 for specialized plan check services. On September 5, 2024, the City Council approved the first contract amendment, increasing the agreement by $209,271.87 to accommodate reimbursable plan check fees associated with the Grand Hyatt Seaside Resort, bringing the total contract amount to $309,271.87.

Packet Page 88

Item No. 8.F. Page 2 of 2
Due to ongoing services and demands, the current resources are insufficient and additional funds are necessary to cover past, current, and future costs. The City currently owes WC3 $85,482.09 in past-due invoices, and an additional $150,000.00 is needed to ensure continuous service delivery through the end of Fiscal Year 2024-2025.

The additional funding requirement brings the second contract amendment amount to a total of $235,482.09, for a final total contract amount of $544,753.96.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is currently $56,017.91 available in Account 100-7210-2073 (Subcontracted Work). Additionally, the Building and Code Enforcement Department has identified salary savings of $180,000 for the Chief Building Official vacancy. A mid-year budget adjustment request to increase funding in Account 100-7210-2073 will be submitted on March 20, 2025.

CONSULTANT hereby waives its own right of recovery against AGENCY, and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its sub consultants.

Enforcement of contract provisions (non estoppel). CONSULTANT acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the AGENCY to inform CONSULTANT of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on the AGENCY nor does it waive any rights hereunder.

Requirements not limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type.

Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the AGENCY.

The policy (ies) shall not contain any cross-liability exclusions.

Pass through clause. CONSULTANT agrees to ensure that its sub consultants, subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project who is brought onto or involved in the project by CONSULTANT, provide the same minimum insurance coverage and endorsements required of CONSULTANT. CONSULTANT agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. CONSULTANT agrees that upon request, all agreements with consultants, subcontractors, and others engaged in the project will be submitted to AGENCY for review.

Agency’s right to revise specifications. The AGENCY reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the CONSULTANT ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the CONSULTANT, the AGENCY and CONSULTANT may renegotiate CONSULTANT’s compensation.

AGENCY reserves the right to require that self-insured retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible.

CITY OF SEASIDE

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 8.G.

TO: City Council
FROM: Greg McDanel, City Manager
BY: Haroon Noori, Administrative Analyst II
Andrew Myrick, Economic Development & Community Planning Manager DATE: March 20, 2025
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION ACCEPTING THE 2024 HOUSING

ELEMENT ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT (APR) AND

AUTHORIZING SUBMITTAL OF THE REPORT TO THE

CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT (HCD) AND THE GOVERNOR’S OFFICE OF LAND

USE AND CLIMATE INNOVATION

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution accepting the 2024 Housing Element Annual Progress Report and authorizing submittal of the report to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the Governor’s Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation (formerly the Office of Planning and Research).

BACKGROUND
State planning law (Government Code Section 65400) requires cities to provide a status report on the implementation of their Housing Element each year to the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). The Housing Element APR must also be sent to the Governor's Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation (LCI).

The Housing Element APR is prepared using forms and definitions adopted by HCD and includes progress towards meeting the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) and status of Housing Element actions and programs that occurred during 2024.

HCD establishes specific reporting metrics outlined in the HE APR, changing annually to align with changes in state legislation. The 2024 HE APR consists of the following data tables:

Item No. 8.G. Page 2 of 3
• Table A: Housing Development Applications Submitted
• Table A2: Annual Building Activity Report Summary--New Construction, Entitled, Permits, and Completed Units
• Table B: Regional Housing Needs Allocation Progress
• Table C: Sites Identified or Rezoned to Accommodate Shortfall Housing Need and No Net-Loss Law
• Table D: Program Implementation
• Table E: Commercial Development Bonus Approved
• Table F: Units Rehabilitated, Preserved and Acquired for Alternative Adequate Sites
• Table F2: Above Moderate Income Units Converted to Moderate Income Units • Table G: Locally Owned Lands Included in the Housing Element Sites Inventory that have been sold, leased, or otherwise disposed of
• Table H: Locally Owned Surplus Sites
• Table J: Student housing development for lower income students for which was granted a density bonus
• Table K: Tenant Preference Policy
• (Local Early Action Planning) LEAP Reporting

DISCUSSION
For the sixth cycle Housing Element, the City has been assigned a Regional Housing Needs Allocation of 616 units (86 very low; 55 low; 156 moderate; and 319 above moderate income units). In 2024, the City approved 22 new Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU), issued 8 ADU building permits, and finalized 24 ADU building permits and 6 Single Family Dwelling (SFD) building permits.

Additionally, on January 10, 2024, the Planning Commission approved a request (AR23-16) from KB Bakewell for design review associated with a new 21-unit multifamily residential building located at 1620 Broadway Avenue. Subsequently, on March 7, 2024 the City Council approved an affordable housing agreement that deed restricted all 21 units for qualified very-low income households. This site is part of the Housing Element sites inventory.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This annual report is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as it is not a “project” as defined in CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5).

FISCAL IMPACT

Assisted Low Income Housing
In 2021, the City created an affordable housing development non-profit called Seaside Housing Collaborative whose mission is to conceptualize, plan, entitle, construct, acquire, sell or lease affordable housing up to and including workforce housing within the City of Seaside. - Monitor Units at Risk: The City will keep in regular contact with the five projects with affordable units to monitor any change in status or intent to maintain the projects as affordable housing. The City will also ensure that no affordable rental unit is allowed to convert to a condominium without meeting the requirements of the City’s adopted condominium conversion ordinance in Chapter 17.42 of the Zoning Ordinance. - Provide Tenant Education: If any of these projects files a Notice of Intent to opt out of affordability covenants, the City will work with tenants to inform them of their rights under federal and State regulations, including receiving proper noticing. New State law requires noticing the tenants three years, one year, and six months ahead of conversion.
- Work with Potential Priority Purchasers: Work with Seaside Housing Collaborative to pursue acquisition/rehabilitation opportunities.

Meetings are held monthly on the third Wednesday of each month at 10:00 AM in the Black Horse room at the Oldemeyer Center. Through collaboration with local landlords and community involvement, the SHC provides information and direction on identifying opportunities for affordable housing opportunities.

CITY OF SEASIDE

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 9.A.

TO: City Council
FROM: Greg McDanel, City Manager
BY: Andrew Myrick, Economic Development & Community Planning Manager DATE: March 20, 2025
SUBJECT: RECEIVE REPORT REGARDING FIREARMS SALES IN A RETAIL

LOCATION IN THE CITY OF SEASIDE AND PROVIDE DIRECTION

TO STAFF

RECOMMENDATION
Receive the Report and provide direction to staff as appropriate.

BACKGROUND
The Seaside Municipal Code at the present time does not have significant restrictions regarding the time, place, or manner of the sales of firearms or ammunition. These types of business characteristics are generally regulated by the Seaside Zoning Ordinance (Title 17). However, there is no reference to guns, ammunition, or firearms in the Zoning Ordinance. As such, from a Zoning perspective, any proposal to sell firearms would be considered a retail use. Obtaining Zoning approvals to sell firearms would therefore be subject to the same rules and regulations as any other retail use, and would be considered a "by-right" use in much of the City's commercial areas.

Although the Municipal Code does not regulate time, place, or manner, it does contain a few limiting provisions. Section 15.24.070.I.1.j requires gun and ammunition stores to have an alarm system. More significantly, Chapter 5.36 provides requirements in place to sell firearms. These requirements do not regulate time, place, or manner, but instead essentially specify that the seller must have three different approvals:

1. They must hold a federal firearms permit;

2. They must comply with all applicable sections of the California Penal Code relating to registration of sales of firearms; and

3. They must obtain a permit authorizing the storage of firearms from the Chief of Packet Page 179

Item No. 9.A. Page 2 of 3
Police.

The City of Seaside does not have control over whether a potential seller of firearms is able to comply with State and Federal law. Therefore, if an individual desires to sell firearms within the City of Seaside and the property is zoned for retail uses, the only limiting factors would be the need to install an alarm system and obtain a permit from the Chief of Police.

The most recent Business License for firearms sales that was issued by the City was issued to a seller in 2017. However, that business closed in 2020. Staff is not aware of any existing sellers of firearms within City Limits. However, the City of Monterey currently has five retail sellers of firearms within its city limits. On February 18, 2025, in response to community concerns, the City of Monterey adopted an urgency Ordinance to prohibit the establishment of any new retail sales of firearms and ammo for at least 45 days.

Staff believes that the sale of firearms should be treated differently from the sale of most other goods within the City, and that some of the unique characteristics of the sale of firearms and ammo (particularly the concerns related to security and theft) warrant a more targeted approach towards identifying the appropriate time, place, and manner for such a business. Staff proposes to draft a revised Ordinance to try to identify the appropriate time, place, and manner for such uses. In particular, staff will review whether it would be appropriate to require a discretionary permit (such as a Use Permit) in order to sell firearms, what locations/zoning districts would be appropriate locations for such a use (including identification of sensitive uses and appropriate separation distances), and what operating standards such a business would need to adhere to as a condition of conducting business.

If desired, a urgency moratorium could be brought before the Council for consideration.

In the interim, the Police Chief has discretion regarding the approval of permits for the sale of firearms and ammo.

CITY OF SEASIDE

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 9.B.

TO: City Council
FROM: Greg McDanel, City Manager
BY: Samantha Alcaraz, Human Resources Director/Risk Manager DATE: March 20, 2025
SUBJECT: RECEIVE REPORT REGARDING INCREASING STIPENDS FOR

CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS AND PROVIDE DIRECTION TO STAFF

RECOMMENDATION
Receive report and provide direction to staff.

BACKGROUND
The City of Seaside is a general law city under California state law. As a general law city, the City Council has the authority to amend an ordinance to increase salaries for the mayor and city council members. The salaries of the Mayor and City Council members have not changed since 1986, almost 38 years (Exhibit A, Ordinance No. 703). Since then, the cost of living alone has increased by more than 300%.

Additionally, the City has grown in complexity, along with the hours required to prepare for and attend City Council meetings. Also, the number of other functions and outside committee assignments has increased significantly. The current salary is $400 per month. This salary is the second lowest among the neighboring cities (Exhibit B, Salary Survey).

The California Legislature recognized this problem in 2023 and adopted Senate Bill 329 (Dodd), which authorized general law city councils to amend their ordinances to make changes to the amount of compensation council members may receive.

The goal of the bill was to address recent inflationary increases, economic realities, and remove barriers to achieving more equitable representation in local government by making it easier for public servants to balance careers and personal obligations. The increase in salaries helps city councils become more diverse because increased Packet Page 182

Item No. 9.B. Page 2 of 2
compensation can help individuals from across different income levels receive income from their service to help ensure that they can continue to serve the public, making it easier for members of marginalized communities to serve.

No one runs for city council in order to make money, but the low levels of pay make it much harder to balance their careers and personal obligations with the calling to serve their community. Furthermore, lengthy time commitments and limited pay discourage many, especially low-income residents, single parents, people of color, and young people, from running for public office.

Under Section 36516, the salaries of council members approved by ordinance shall be as follows:

1. An amount equal to 5% for each calendar year from the operative date of the last adjustment of the salary in effect when the ordinance or amendment is enacted; or

2. In cities up to and including 35,000 in population, a monthly salary of $950.

A council member's monthly salary of $400 in 1986 increased by 5% annually until 2024, it would be adjusted to $2,409.05 a month. The amount of $400 in 1986 is equivalent to $1,118.56 today.

REQUEST:

Consider the adoption of amending the ordinance to increase the monthly compensation for current and future mayor and council members of the City of Seaside.

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 9.C.

TO: City Council
FROM: Greg McDanel, City Manager
BY: Jessica Riley, Finance Director
DATE: March 20, 2025
SUBJECT: RECEIVE REPORT REGARDING SHORT TERM RENTAL FUNDING

AND PROVIDE DIRECTION TO STAFF

RECOMMENDATION
Receive report and provide direction to staff.

BACKGROUND
This report provides an update on the allocation and utilization of short-term rental tax revenues collected by the City of Seaside.

Ordinance Reference: Seaside Municipal Code, Section 3.24.130 • 10% of the Short-term Rental (STR) revenue is used for short-term rental program costs.
• The remaining 50% of the net STR revenue is allocated to the City of Seaside Housing Fund to support affordable housing initiatives, as directed by the City Council.
• The other 50% is directed toward community and neighborhood park improvements, based on recommendations from the Neighborhood Improvement Commission.

Short-term Rental Tax Revenue and Expenditures Summary
• Initial STR Program Revenue Fiscal Year 2019/20: The total revenue collected in the first year of the short-term rental program was $376,453. • Fiscal Years 2020/21 – 2023/24: On average, STR tax collections have Packet Page 188

Item No. 9.C. Page 2 of 3
amounted to $747,928 annually, with $1,076,010 collected in FY 2023/24.

Neighborhood Improvement Fund Expenditures
For budgeting and planning purposes, an estimated 50% of the projected short-term rental tax revenue is allocated at the beginning of each fiscal year to the Neighborhood Improvement Commission (NIC) for park and neighborhood improvement projects. Any unexpended funds or variances from actual collections are adjusted through the General Fund at the close of the fiscal year. Surpluses are returned to the General Fund, and deficits must be covered by the General Fund.

The funds allocated to the Neighborhood Improvement Fund have been utilized in the following categories:
• Capital Improvement Projects (CIP): 51% of the allocated funds have supported capital improvement projects within the City. • Other Neighborhood Improvement Projects: 25% has been used for smaller, non-CIP neighborhood improvements.
• Unspent Funds: 24% of the allocated funds have rolled back into the general fund. Most of the unspent funds were in fiscal year 2021/22.

These allocations reflect the ongoing commitment to improving public spaces and enhancing the quality of life in Seaside’s neighborhoods.

Affordable Housing Fund Expenditures
The remaining 50% of short-term rental tax revenue is directed toward the Affordable Housing Fund. This fund has been used to support the City’s affordable housing program, including:
• Staff Costs: Funding has supported the salary of the Affordable Housing Program Manager.
• Maintenance Costs: Funds have been used for the ongoing maintenance of affordable housing properties.
• Consultant Services: The fund has also supported various consultant services that assist with affordable housing activities in Seaside.

To date, 66% of the funds allocated to the affordable housing program have been expended. The remaining balance continues to reside in the affordable housing fund and is available for future projects or expenses that support affordable housing within the City of Seaside.

Conclusion
The allocation of short-term rental tax revenue continues to support key initiatives Packet Page 189

Item No. 9.C. Page 3 of 3
within the City of Seaside, with significant investments in both affordable housing and neighborhood improvements. The process for managing these funds is in alignment with the Seaside Municipal Code and the direction of the City Council. Regular adjustments based on actual tax revenue ensure that these programs are adequately funded and able to meet the City’s goals.

FISCAL IMPACT
The allocation of short-term rental tax revenues has a direct impact on the City’s budgeting and resource distribution. The continued funding of the Neighborhood Improvement Fund and Affordable Housing Fund ensures that key community projects and affordable housing initiatives are adequately supported. The funds used for capital improvements, neighborhood enhancements, and affordable housing programs help maintain and improve the City’s infrastructure and affordable housing opportunities, contributing to long-term fiscal stability. Any variances between estimated and actual tax revenues are managed through adjustments to the general fund, minimizing the financial impact on other City operations.

CITY OF SEASIDE
2 INTRODUCTION
This is the second quarterly report for Fiscal Year 2024‐ 25, and comprises results for the six month period
ending December 31, 2024. While a few other notable
funds are reviewed, this report focuses primarily on the City’s general fund.  General Fund operating revenues
and expenditures as compared to previous years and/or
budget are presented, and any notable changes or
trends in these numbers are explained. The report is
presented on a cash basis, which means that revenues
are recognized at the time revenues are received and
expenditures are recognized at the time payment is
processed.  The City does not accrue any revenues or
expenditures in the first quarter.

The purpose of this report is twofold. First, it ensures that the City is consistently monitoring its revenues and expenditures so that it may proactively respond to
unanticipated changes or emerging trends. Second, and
equally important, consistent reporting increases the
transparency of the City’s finances. Quarterly reporting provides the City Council, City Administration, taxpayers and ratepayers with information that demonstrates the
City is meeting this standard.

The information in this report is the most accurate and up‐to‐date information available at the time of
publication. It is not meant to be inclusive of all financial and accounting transactions. It is intended only to
provide the Council, Management and the public with
an overview of the state of the City’s general fiscal
condition. It should be noted that this report is not an audited financial statement, and the numbers provided
herein are preliminary and subject to change as the year progresses. No data on revenues and expenditures is
final until the City has completed its annual audit and finalized its Annual Comprehensive Financial Report
(ACFR), which is released in the winter of each year for the prior fiscal year.

ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
The economic outlook section of this report provides an overview of key factors influencing the City’s financial outlook. With the end of California's COVID‐19 State of Emergency in February 2023, the economy has been
transitioning into a period of recovery. In response to persistent inflation, the Federal Reserve raised interest rates midway through 2024, but by the end of the year,
it implemented a series of three rate cuts, which appear to have helped achieve a "soft landing" for the
economy. However, growth prospects have slowed for
fiscal year 2024‐25, signaling a more cautious outlook
moving forward.

NATIONAL & STATE ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
Hdl (The City’s revenue enhancement consultant)
reports the national economy grew on average 2.8%
through FY23‐24, and projects it will flatten in FY 24‐ 25 to 2.6% real growth. FY 25‐26 is expected to
flatten further to 2.5%
 California’s unemployment rate has risen
through FY 24‐25, but is expected to decrease
from 5.3% in FY 24‐25 to 5.1% in FY 25‐26,
remaining slightly higher than the national
average despite a year‐over‐year change
similar to the national trend.
 Statewide Sales & Use Tax growth is expected
to turn slightly negative in FY 24‐25 at ‐0.8%
before increasing further in FY 25‐26 at 2.6%.
 California’s median existing home price is
expected to increase from $719k in FY 24‐25
to $728k in FY 25‐26.

Source: Hdl
The national economic outlook shows resilience despite
ongoing challenges. The Federal Reserve’s actions to
combat inflation through interest rate hikesin early 2024 have begun to take effect, leading to a series of three rate cuts by year‐end. While inflation has cooled from its peak, the economy continues to be influenced by global
geopolitical tensions and unpredictable fiscal policies, such as tariffs. These external factors contribute to
ongoing uncertainty, which may impact both national
and local growth projections.

The combination of global unrest and domestic policy
decisions continues to create volatility in economic
conditions. Although the Federal Reserve remains
confident that inflation is easing and the labor market is strong, these external risks could lead to further
instability. Consumer spending remains a key driver of
Packet Page 199

CITY OF SEASIDE
3 Q2 FY 2024-25 FINANCIAL REPORT
U.S. economic growth, but the broader outlook will
depend on how these uncertainties affect household
finances, business investment, and overall economic
confidence.

Despite growing concerns about the risk of a recession in 2025, many economists remain cautious but optimistic.

While geopolitical unrest and restrictive fiscal policies pose challenges, the Federal Reserve’s recent actions
have helped stabilize inflation and support resilience. As uncertainties persist, particularly from global factors, the economy’s adaptability provides a reason for cautious
optimism, though these developments will need to be
closely monitored moving forward.

LOCAL ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
Seaside's economic landscape is adjusting to post‐
pandemic conditions, with both challenges and
opportunities emerging. While the city's unemployment
rate remains relatively low at an average annual rate of

3.7% as of December 2024, this is a slight increase from the 2% low in May 2022, reflecting broader national
labor market trends. Sales tax receipts for the third
quarter of 2024 (July through September) declined by

2.6% compared to the same period in 2023, with a
deeper drop of 4.8% after adjusting for reporting
anomalies. The automotive sector, which continues to
struggle with high interestrates and falling vehicle prices, remains a major contributor to the decline.

In addition to the slowdown in auto sales, Seaside saw
reduced fuel‐service station receipts, impacted by a
global decrease in crude oil prices. The food and drug
sector also experienced a downturn, notably in cannabis sales, while construction‐related businesses reported
weaker demand, reflecting broader challenges in the
economy due to high interest rates and limited
investment in home repairs and new projects.

A significantshift in Seaside’s economy has been the 12% decline in transient occupancy tax (TOT) collections for the first half of fiscal year 2024‐25, compared to the
same period in the prior year. This mirrors weaker
restaurant performance, especially in fine dining, and is attributed to rising labor costs and fewer customer visits.

While some sectors showed growth, such as quick‐
service restaurants and business‐to‐business sales, the broader trend of cautious consumer spending continues
to impact local businesses.

Looking ahead, Seaside’s sales tax receipts are expected to remain soft, with a projected 1% decline compared to last year. This reflects ongoing consumer caution,
particularly in large or discretionary purchases. As the city navigates these challenges, officials will continue to monitor economic developments, including Federal
Reserve actions, and remain flexible to adjust strategies as needed through the remainder of fiscal year 2024‐25.

Q2 GENERAL FUND REVENUES:

Total budgeted revenue for FY 2024‐25, including one‐time sales and transfers, is $48.2M. Revenues are projected to end the year at $46.8M, which is $1.3M below budget and below the $47.2M revenue received in FY 2023‐24.

The following table and chart compares Q2 results for FY25 with Q2 results for FY23 and FY24. As can be seen in the table, revenues through the second quarter totaled $21.4M which is ‐1% or $233k lower than the second quarter of the previous year and mostly unchanged compared to FY23.  The $21.4M equals 44.4% of total budgeted revenue.  In comparison, the second quarter of the previous year the City had realized 48% of total budgeted revenue.  This indicates that the City’s revenues are below target with the budget.

 Property Tax: Has increased and is projected to end the year slightly higher than the previous year. This category is also projected to end the year slightly higher than budget by $290K.

7 Q2 FY 2024-25 FINANCIAL REPORT
DISCUSSION OF SIGNIFICANT EXPENDITURE VARIANCES BY TYPE:
 Personnel Services
Personnel Services were similar to results at mid‐year in the previous fiscal year.  The results were somewhat higher mostly due to cost of living adjustments and increases in pension costs.   Total cost was $16.4M compared to $15.8M a year earlier. Personnel services are expected to produce the greatest year end variance at $1.7M.  In the first half of the year, 14 positions were recruited and filled.

On the other hand, 8 positions terminated for various reasons.  Services & Supplies
At the mid‐point of the year, Services and supplies were down 2% on a year over year basis and 14% below budget.  The majority of the year over year variance is related to consultant services budgets that were not engaged until the second half of the year and reduced spending on department equipment such as computer supplies.
 Capital Outlay – Projects
Capital outlay and projects were up $73k due increased cost of equipment for several department.

EXPENDITURES BY DEPARTMENT:

As can be seen in the table above, nearly all departments were under budget through the second quarter of the year.  The City Manager’s budget has a variance of ‐$222k due to costs of bringing on an interim City Manager, recruitment costs for the new permanent City Manager, and the creation of the new Assistant City Manager position for Community Services. This variance was offset by a corresponding variance in the Recreation Department due to the elimination of the Recreation Director position. The City Clerk’s Office has a variance of ‐$35k due to increased contracted services costs for expanding marketing media and for providing spanish translation services during council meetings. The Fire Department has a variance of $73k due to unexpected overtime costs caused by ongoing vacancies throughout the year.

COUNCIL APPROVED BUDGET AMENDMENTS:

Below is a summary of budget amendments appropriated or committed by the City Council in the first two quarters of the year:

As may be seen, the City Council has approved $6.6M in funds through the first two quarters of the year.

Operating budget amendments will affect the operating budget/surplus calculation. Capital budget amendments will result in an expenditure of fund balance. The $6,228,482 amendment was previously reported as part of committed funds for a $7,522,232 loan to the Seaside Municipal Water System, of which $6.2 million was transferred from committed funds to an expense in the City budget funded from fund balance in exchange for ownership of a proportionate share of water credits.

GENERAL FUND NET RESULTS:

Overall, the first half of the year showed expenditures of $24.6M (45% of the annual budget) in comparison with revenues of $21.4M (44.4% of the annual budget).   Projected results are as follows:

As can be seen, results at the mid‐year indicate that the ongoing operations of the City is expected to produce positive financial results for fiscal year 2024‐25 with a surplus of $2.2 million in the operating budget. The total fund balance for the City is expected to be reduced from street related expenditures, capital expenditures, and the acquisition of water credits from the Seaside Municipal Water System.

Other Adjustments to Operating Surplus:

The projected year‐end operating surplus of $2,232,578 is calculated for the City’s general fund for fiscal year 2024‐25. When the fiscal year 2024‐25 budget was adopted, the City established a policy that fifty percent (50%) of any projected surplus will be committed to the following year’s pavement rehabilitation project or streets operation expenditures. The amount of the surplus to be allocated for the City’s streets funds in the fiscal year 2025‐26 budget is $1,116,289.

After adjusting for the Policy transfer of 50% of the projected operating surplus of $1,116,289 and if the Budget Amendment requests are approved, the remaining operating surplus projected for fiscal year 2024‐25 would be $50k.

BUDGET OUTLOOK:

The projected Net Position for the City at the end of fiscal year 2024‐25 is $31 million. After accounting for various committed funds, policy reserve requirements, and the City’s street funding policy, and assuming approval of the budget amendment requests, the remaining unassigned fund balance, which represents the City Council’s discretionary funds, is expected to be $2.5 million. While this is an increase from the $1.7 million unassigned fund balance initially projected when the current budget was adopted, it remains a relatively limited amount. These funds will be essential in supporting critical street repair costs and capital projects that fall outside the scope of the normal operating budget. Looking ahead, the Finance Department will provide a long‐term forecast of the unassigned fund balance at the fiscal year 2025‐26 budget development presentation. This forecast will provide further insight into the challenges the City faces and how these challenges balance with the City’s development goals and other key initiatives.

12 Q2 FY 2024-25 FINANCIAL REPORT
Some insights that may be gained at this mid‐year budget review:
 Revenues remain strong but have begun to decline.
 Sales and Use Tax is expected to decline (auto sales in particular).  Transient Occupancy Tax is expected to decline.
 Marijuana Receipts tax have decreased.
 Street operations costs are expected to put pressure on the operating budget as previous support from bond funding has been fully expended.
 Personnel costs are up but expected to produce a variance due to vacancies throughout departments.

Headwinds:
 While inflation rates have continued lower toward the Federal Reserve’s target inflation rate of 2%, it remains to be seen if the risk of recession in 2025 will be mitigated by the recent interest rate cuts.  PERS unfunded liabilities continue to grow.
 Expenses remain high for construction projects with bids expected to come in higher than originally anticipated.  The state budget has moved into a deficit, which will impact grants received by the City.  Geopolitical unrest continues.

OTHER FUNDS   In addition to the General Fund, the budget includesfundsfrom a range of restricted sources as well as business‐ type activities that are used to provide specific services, including:

WATER FUND:

The Water Enterprise Fund appears to be functioning as designed. The last rate study was approved by Council on October 17, 2019 and the final increase of a five‐year rate plan went into effect on January 1, 2023. The trend for fiscal year 2024‐25 indicates that revenue is keeping up with projected increases in expenses. A new rate study is currently under way with plans to implement new rates in the Fiscal Year 2024‐25 budget.

Year over year, expenditures were somewhat lower in FY 25 as compared to FY24.  This is due to reduced personnel costs from staff turnover in water utility maintenance positions.   Design work for a new well was programmed for the previous fiscal year, but the project did not get under way. The well design project was rolled forward to the current fiscal year. First quarter results indicate the fund is on track to collect revenues in line with budget and expenditures are within budget as well.

STORM WATER FUND:

The Storm Water fund expenditures in the first quarter were $597k. Storm Water costs were $60k higher than the same quarter of the previous year, mainly due to timing of capital Improvement projects. Currently the primary source of funding for the Storm Water fund is the City’s General Fund.  City staff continues to seek grant funding when available as well.
