ADOPT A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE AND SUBMIT THE TRANSPORTATION DEVELOPMENT ACT CLAIM FOR FISCAL YEAR 2023-24
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution to authorize the City Manager or his designee to:
1. Execute and submit a claim to the San Joaquin Council of Governments for the Transportation Development Act tax revenue for the 2023-24 fiscal year.
2. Receive and deposit the proceeds in Transportation Development Act Fund 245 pursuant to State of California requirements.
It is recommended that the City Manager be authorized to take appropriate and necessary actions to carry out the purpose and intent of this resolution.
Summary
The City is entitled to a formula-based apportionment of the statewide Transportation Development Act (TDA) tax revenue to offset costs related to transportation projects. The San Joaquin Council of Governments (SJCOG) administers the State apportionment on an annual basis to agencies within the county. No matching funds are required as a condition to receipt, but SJCOG requires that the claim documents include a resolution by the governing body authorizing an annual claim. The recommended action would authorize the City Manager or his Designee to submit a claim to SJCOG for the TDA funds.
DISCUSSION
Background
SJCOG is responsible for the ongoing administration of TDA funds provided from a State Tax allocation to its Local Transportation Fund (LTF) established in 1972. The funding is for local public transit as well as bicycle and pedestrian projects. The LTF receives revenue from a 1/4 percent retail sales tax collected by the State of California in accordance with the TDA legislation.
Pursuant to the TDA regulations, 98 percent of the LTF funding is allocated to the San Joaquin Regional Transit District (SJRTD) to fund public transit services, and two percent of the apportionment can be allocated for bicycle and pedestrian purposes. This “non-motorized” apportionment is distributed within San Joaquin County by SJCOG to cities and unincorporated areas based on population. The City uses these funds for bicycle paths, sidewalk repairs, and wheelchair City of Stockton Printed on 1/19/2024Page 1 of 2

File #: 23-1165, Version: 1
ramps. Public Works maintains a database of wheelchair ramps and sidewalks in need of repair, and the non-motorized LTF-TDA funding is allocated entirely to these projects and includes the TDA resources when compiling its annual Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).
SJCOG calculates the apportionments, allocates the resources, and notifies the agencies of the value of available funding. To receive TDA funds, the City is required to submit a claim to SJCOG, along with a Council resolution.
Present Situation
The total amount to be claimed by the City for the 2023-24 fiscal year is $1,835,250. This includes $1,341,774 previously claimed and received by the City that must be reclaimed as part of the annual process.
The current TDA available balance for the City held by SJCOG is $493,476.
FINANCIAL SUMMARY
The TDA revenues and expenditures are allocated to a special revenue fund (Fund 245). Projects are allocated funding through the annual CIP budget or other Council action. The recommended action authorizes a 2023-24 TDA claim, upon receipt of which, the funds will be deposited into TDA Fund 245 for the Sidewalk, Curb, and Gutter Repair Program. No General Fund or matching resources are required to receive TDA funds as a result of this action.
There is no impact to the City’s General Fund or any other unrestricted fund as a result of taking the recommended actions.

ADOPT RESOLUTION TO AUTHORIZE THE STREETLIGHT KNOCKDOWN REPAIRS PHASE 7
PROJECT
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution to:
1. Approve Notice of Exemption No. NOE58-23 under the California Environmental Quality Act for the Streetlight Knockdown Repairs Phase 7, Project No. OM-23-016.
2. Approve the plans and specifications for the Streetlight Knockdown Repairs Phase 7, Project No. OM-23-016.
3. Award a Construction Contract in the amount of $122,723 to Ray’s Electric of Oakland, CA, for the Streetlight Knockdown Repairs Phase 7, Project No. OM-23-016.
It is also recommended that the City Manager be authorized to take appropriate and necessary actions to carry out the purpose and intent of this resolution.
Summary
Streetlight poles are installed close to the roadway and are occasionally struck by motor vehicles, resulting in toppled poles or “knockdowns.” The Streetlight Knockdown Repairs project will remove and replace five streetlight poles and four traffic signal poles that were damaged by automobile accidents at various locations citywide (Attachment A).
On November 9, 2023, the City received four bids for this project. Staff recommends award of the Construction Contract to the lowest responsive bidder, Ray’s Electric, in the amount of $122,723.
Staff also recommends that Council adopt a resolution approving Notice of Exemption No. NOE58-23 under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and approving the plans and specifications for the project. Construction is anticipated to begin and be completed by spring 2024, weather permitting.
DISCUSSION
Background
The City is responsible for the operation and maintenance of approximately 19,000 streetlights. The majority of these streetlights are mounted on galvanized poles. Streetlight poles are installed close to the roadway and are occasionally struck by motor vehicles, resulting in toppled poles or “knockdowns.” The cost to replace a foundation, pole, and fixture has increased significantly in the City of Stockton Printed on 1/19/2024Page 1 of 3

last five years. Depending on the severity of the damage to the foundation base and wiring, repair costs range between $5,000 and $20,000 per knockdown. The City has an average of 75 such incidents annually. The City attempts to recover damage expenses when there is a police report identifying the responsible party.
The Streetlight Knockdown Repairs project will remove and replace five streetlight poles and four traffic signal poles that were damaged by automobile accidents at various locations citywide (Attachment A).
On July 26, 2016, Council adopted a Community Workforce and Training Agreement (CWTA). The CWTA became effective August 25, 2016, and applies to all Public Works projects over $1 million that are bid after that date. On July 16, 2019, by Motion No. 2019-07-16-1403, Council extended the CWTA term to August 25, 2024. The CWTA was not applied to this project as the estimated construction cost is less than $1 million
Present Situation
On October 19, 2023, the Streetlight Knockdown Repairs Phase 7, Project No. OM-23-016, was advertised for bids. On November 9, 2023, four bids were received with the following results:
COMPANY NAME BID AMOUNT
Ray’s Electric $122,723
(Oakland, CA)
Tennyson Electric, LLC $138,075
(Livermore, CA)
St. Francis Electric, LLC $159,300
(San Leandro, CA)
Bear Electrical Solutions, Inc. $353,500
(Alviso, CA)
Engineer’s Estimate $119,000
The requirements of Stockton Municipal Code (SMC) section 3.68.090, Local Business Preference, apply to this project. Application of the Local Business Preference has no effect on the bid order, as no local firms bid on the project. The Local Employment Ordinance, SMC section 3.68.095, also applies to this contract.
The bid from Ray’s Electric, the lowest responsive bidder, is regular in all respects and has the proper license to perform the work. Staff recommends Council approve the plans and specifications for the project and award a Construction Contract to Ray’s Electric of Oakland, CA, in the amount of $122,723.

The project is in conformance with the City’s General Plan, pursuant to California Government Code, section 65402, and is categorically exempt from the requirements of CEQA as specified under Section 15301(c) of the CEQA Guidelines. As a result, the project has been granted a Categorical Exemption. The activities related to this project constitute a discretionary project under the City’s jurisdiction and qualifies as a project that does not have a significant effect on the environment. The resolution will approve the filing of Notice of Exemption No. NOE58-23 under CEQA. Construction is anticipated to begin and be completed by spring 2024, weather permitting.
FINANCIAL SUMMARY
There is sufficient funding in the Fiscal Year 2023-24 Electrical and Traffic Signals, Account No. 4570- 717-630013-250-252-30-45-000-000, to award a Construction Contract in the amount of $122,723 to Ray’s Electric of Oakland, CA, for the Streetlight Knockdown Repairs Phase 7, Project No. OM-23- 016.
There is no impact to the City’s General Fund or any other unrestricted fund as a result of taking the recommended actions.

File #: 24-0072, Version: 1
ADOPT AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 5.104 TO THE STOCKTON MUNICIPAL CODE
RELATED TO TOBACCO RETAILERS
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Adopt an ordinance amending Chapter 5.104 to the Stockton Municipal Code relating to tobacco retailers, creating additional exemptions to the Chapter 5.104 distancing restrictions.
2. Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to take all appropriate and necessary actions to carry out the purpose and intent of the ordinance.
Summary
On June 20, 2023, the City Council approved the adoption of Ordinance 2023-06-20-1502, amending sections of Title 5 of the Stockton Municipal Code (“SMC”) concerning tobacco and the licensing of tobacco retailers (the “Ordinance”). Specifically, the Ordinance amended chapter 5.16.010, adding a required Tobacco Retailer License to the City’s approved business license schedule, and also added chapter 5.104 - Tobacco Retailers, which outlines the purpose, application, and requirements of the new Tobacco Retailers License.
Since the start of implementing this new business license, staff have been observing and taking note of the functionality of the established process and impacts and have worked with the Legislative and Environmental Committee to provide recommended revisions to the Ordinance, codified at SMC chapter 5.104.
DISCUSSION
Background
On July 20, 2022, the Council Legislation and Environmental Committee (“Committee”) directed the City Attorney’s Office to draft a proposed ordinance requiring tobacco retailers to obtain a license prior to conducting business within the City. The Committee expressed concern that the City cannot currently track the number or location of tobacco retailers in the City, and was particularly concerned with minors’ access to tobacco products. The Committee also expressed a desire to enact certain restrictions and requirements for tobacco retailers to operate within the City.
After the item was agendized for the November 15, 2022, City Council meeting, the item was pulled with reference to a number of public comments that had been delivered to the City in advance of that meeting. The proposed ordinance was brought back to the Committee for further input at its February City of Stockton Printed on 1/19/2024Page 1 of 4

File #: 24-0072, Version: 1
15, 2023, and March 15, 2023 meetings. The new permit type was approved by the full Council on June 20, 2023, requiring tobacco retailers to obtain a tobacco retailing license in addition to a standard business license.
Some portions of the new SMC chapter 5.104 could be summarized as follows:
Tobacco Retailer Defined
Defines tobacco retailers broadly, to include any person who sells tobacco, tobacco products, or tobacco paraphernalia, without regard to the quantity sold.
According to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration, when the City last inquired, there were 272 State-licensed tobacco retailers within the City. This count would include business categories like gas stations, grocery stores, and smoke shops. Under the Ordinance, all 272 retailers are required to obtain a license.
Applying for a License
Provides for a license application process. The full list of information sought from an applicant can be found at SMC Section 5.104.040, which includes details on the retail location, information about all individuals who have ownership or managerial interest in an applicant business, and proof that the business is licensed by the State.
Distance Restrictions
Provides for the denial of a license application if the tobacco retailer is within 600 feet of a school, public park, public playground, public recreational area, youth facility, or a tobacco retailer. These distancing restrictions do not apply to a tobacco retailer operating lawfully on the day before the effective date of the ordinance. This exemption would cease to apply if a tobacco retailer fails to timely renew its tobacco retailer license, or if the retailer’s tobacco retailer license is revoked.
Non-transferability of License
A tobacco retailer license is non-transferable and is location specific. If a licensee desires to change its business location, it must obtain a new license for the new location. If a licensed business is sold or experiences a change in ownership, the business must obtain a new license before continuing its tobacco retailing.
Staff from the Administrative Services, Police, and Community Development departments collaborated to establish a comprehensive application process. This involved creating new application forms, developing GIS layers, and streamlining the internal application flow. During August 2023, all identified licensed businesses were sent an informational letter detailing the ordinance along with the tobacco retail license application. The Police Department also conducted outreach through social media to notify the public of the new ordinance and included links to the code and information on how to report suspected violations.
Present Situation
During the Legislative and Environmental Committee Meeting on January 18, 2024, the committee, staff, and constituents discussed the lack of a “grandfathering clause” that would consider certain projects that were already in development before the effective date of the Ordinance to be exempt from the Ordinance’s 600-foot distancing restrictions.
City of Stockton Printed on 1/19/2024Page 2 of 4

File #: 24-0072, Version: 1
Since the Ordinance’s effective date in September 2023, staff have been tracking impacts of the Ordinance on pending projects and presented the following information, based on the location requirements of the ordinance:
- 1 Planning Entitlement (Convenience Store) failed to meet location requirements § This project was deemed complete prior to adoption of the ordinance - 5 Proposed Convenience Stores, in the Building Permit stage, will fail to meet the location requirements of the new business license permit
§ 4 of the 5 permits were applied for prior to ordinance adoption § 2 of the 5 permits are currently under construction
Note, there may be additional projects beyond those listed above, which were already in development, and would satisfy the new exemption language in the proposed ordinance.
The SMC now prohibits a person from obtaining a tobacco retailer license if the retail location is within 600 feet of certain locations, including schools, parks, and other tobacco retailers. Businesses which pre-date the effective date of the Ordinance (which was September 17, 2023) are exempt from the 600-foot restriction. However, because tobacco licenses are non-transferable, if a business is sold (or franchised, or transferred in some other way), the new owner (or franchisee) would need to obtain their own tobacco retailer license. That new owner (or new franchisee) would not have been operating prior to September 17, 2023, so they would not be exempt from the 600-foot restriction.
Thus, if the location in question is within 600 feet of a restricted location, the new owner (or franchisee) currently cannot obtain a license of their own for the location and would be unable to sell tobacco products there.
Since the Ordinance’s adoption, staff have knowledge of four existing convenience stores that desire, but are unable, to move to the franchise model (i.e., conduct an ownership change) due to the locations’ proximity to other tobacco retailers or sensitive uses.
Based on constituent feedback and direction from the Committee, there was a desire to create an exemption to the 600-foot distancing restriction for businesses that not only predate the Ordinance, but also businesses that subsequently obtain that business location from the prior license holder.
To address the negative impacts to projects already in progress at the time of the effective date, and to create an additional 600-foot restriction exemption for certain business locations, the Environmental and Legislative Committee and staff are recommending the following amendments to SMC Title 5, Chapter 5.104:
Development Projects which Predate the Ordinance
The proposed ordinance will permit a location that was in development before the effective date of Chapter 5.104, which satisfies specified criteria, to have a tobacco retailer obtain a license at that location without regard to the 600-foot distancing restrictions.

485
File #: 24-0072, Version: 1
Locations with Tobacco Retailing which Predate the Ordinance.
The proposed ordinance will allow a location to be exempt from the 600-foot distancing restrictions if (A) a tobacco retailer was retailing there lawfully prior to the effective date of Chapter 5.104, and (B) the location has been continually licensed as a tobacco retail location (plus up to 6 months after the expiration of the most recent license). This will allow a retail location which predates the ordinance to sell its establishment to a new owner, who will be able to obtain their own license to continue retailing tobacco at the location. If a retail location predating the ordinance has not yet been required to obtain a tobacco retailer license due to the phased rollout of the license requirement, a sale or transfer of the business would not trigger the location requirements.
The Committee has also expressed interest in exploring additional inspection and enforcement mechanisms, which staff will continue to explore as we continue implementation and adjustment of this new business license permit type.
FINANCIAL SUMMARY
There are no General Fund costs associated with the adoption of the ordinance as drafted.

It is further recommended that the City Manager be authorized to take appropriate and necessary actions to carry out the purpose and intent of the resolution.
Summary
City staff analyzes the City’s expenditures and revenues quarterly and provides reports to the City Council and the public to increase transparency, make financial recommendations in response to financial activities, and perform routine financial operations that require Council’s authority to complete.
The City has experienced higher than anticipated revenues and lower than anticipated expenditures.
Projected revenues of $321.8 million are $36.2 million more than the adopted budget and $12.0 million more than the projection in the Third Quarter Budget Update. Projected expenditures of $328.8 million are $21.9 million less than the adopted budget and $2.2 million more than the projection in the Third Quarter Budget Update. The fiscal year-end projected numbers reflect actuals as they currently stand but are unaudited and subject to changes before the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) is published.
The City has prudently adopted the Reserve and Fund Balance Policy - this policy attempts to set aside reserves using the Long-Range Financial Plan (L-RFP), a tool designed to help the City’s consultants and analysts understand how the City will respond to likely future economic factors. The L-RFP and the Reserve and Fund Balance Policy are designed to set aside fund balance during financially prosperous years so that City services can continue during financially lean years.
DISCUSSION
Background
One of the strategic initiatives developed to support the City’s long-term fiscal sustainability was to provide regular analysis and reporting of the City’s financial status. As a result, the Council and the public should anticipate quarterly reports.
A fund is a set of accounts designed to track a specific kind of financial activity. Each fund is its own business entity and consists of its own “set of books” and specific rules. This allows the City to provide and account for different kinds of activities and departments separately. The General Fund is the City’s largest and most important fund. It is the fund which provides for most of the City’s fundamentally necessary or “general” activities such as public safety. The City’s General Fund balance is also considered unassigned, which means that it is not tied to a specific service or type of City of Stockton Printed on 1/19/2024Page 2 of 16

expenditure, although most of the General Fund has been assigned to restricted balances. The remainder of the General Fund might be used to support or enhance any service that the City might require.
The City accrues or “moves back” transactions that occur up until 90 days after the fiscal year closes on June 30 that represent activity that occurred during the fiscal year. This practice is used to accurately reflect best accounting practice or Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) to present the financial activity in the same accounting period in which it occurred.
To achieve long-term fiscal sustainability, the City Council adopted the Reserve and Fund Balance Policy - General Fund on March 29, 2016, that establishes reserves for known contingencies, unforeseen revenue changes, infrastructure failures, and catastrophic events in addition to the operating reserve. Accordingly, Staff recommends increasing reserves from the available General Fund dollars.
Present Situation
General Fund
Staff analyzed General Fund unaudited expenditure and revenue results for the full 12 months of FY 2022-23, as shown in Attachments A and B. The City’s financial statements have not yet undergone the full annual audit process and are subject to change. Staff will provide audited financial statements for all funds through the publication of the ACFR. Attachment A summarizes the City's General Fund revenues, expenditures, and available balance by Approved Budget, Third Quarter Projection, Year- End Projection, and variance amounts.
Council adopted the FY 2022-23 Annual Budget of $898.7 million in appropriations, including $282.9 million in General Fund appropriations, on June 21, 2022. Throughout the fiscal year, Administrative and Council-approved amendments to the adopted budget increased the total General Fund expenditure appropriations to $350.6 million, mainly resulting from one-time appropriations for City- wide projects and operating budget adjustments based on approved employee labor agreements.
Summary Tables
Staff reviewed the City’s unaudited Fourth Quarter (Q4) FY 2022-23 financial activity in the General Fund (Attachment A). The following tables summarize the results of the Fourth Quarter / Year-End review of General Fund compared to the Approved Budget and the Year-End (YE) Projection as of the Third Quarter Budget Update (Q3):

File #: 24-0048, Version: 1
Summary Revenues and Expenditures
The General Fund ended FY 2022-23 with revenues that were 3.9% above the Third Quarter estimates and 12.7% above the Approved Budget of $285.6 million. In the Third Quarter Budget Update, Staff estimated that the City’s General Fund would end the fiscal year with revenues of $309.8 million. At year-end, City staff are reporting a total of $321.8 million in revenue. Sales tax and business license tax revenues accounted for most of the variance between what was budgeted and actual receipts.
The General Fund Ended FY 2022-23 with expenditures that were less than one percent above the Third Quarter estimates and 6.2% below the approved budget. The General Fund had an approved expenditure budget of $350.6 million. In the Third Quarter Budget Update, Staff estimated that the City would end with $326.6 million in General Fund expenditures. At year-end, City staff are reporting a total of $328.8 million in expenditures on a budgetary basis. Vacancy savings accounted for most of the variance between what was budgeted and what was spent.
Net Position
The net position is the difference between revenues and expenditures and represents how much of the fiscal year’s activity will be made available to fund future efforts, or, if negative, how much fund balance was used or committed to cover current or future activity.
The approved budget originally expended or committed $65.1 million more than anticipated revenues. At the third quarter reporting, Staff anticipated spending or committing $16.8 million in excess of anticipated revenues, and at year-end, the City’s books are showing that the City only expended or committed $7.0 million in excess of anticipated revenues.
A combination of global economic factors pertaining mostly due to Covid-19 and salary savings have led to the net position being $58.0 million more than initially anticipated. It is recommended that a portion of these savings be programmed towards Council priority items and that the remainder be put towards reserves, saving for future commitments and potential economic downturns.
General Fund Revenues
As generally described in the previous section, overall revenues came in higher than anticipated compared to both the Approved Budget and the Third Quarter Budget Update year-end projection.
Below is a discussion of selected categories of General Fund revenues (also displayed in Attachment City of Stockton Printed on 1/19/2024Page 4 of 16

File #: 24-0048, Version: 1
B). Chart 1 shows the various revenue categories as a percent of total General Fund revenues.
Sales Tax Collections, the General Fund’s largest revenue source, are expected to be $14.6 million greater than the budgeted level of $112.0 million, which is an increase of approximately $827,000 from the Third Quarter Budget Report projection. Measure A is projected to be $7.6 million more (18%) than the budgeted amount of $42.1 million. At $126.7 million, Sales Tax receipts make up approximately 39.4% of all General Fund revenues.
Current year-end sales tax receipts for FY 2022-23 are projected to be 13% more than budgeted and
4.1% more than FY 2021-22 receipts. Revenues have been difficult to predict in recent years but have been higher than usual due to national factors caused by a rapidly changing economy. Sales tax revenue is directly related to retail sales. On a national scale, at the start of January 2020, the Legislative Analyst’s Office (using U.S. Census Bureau data) reported national U.S. Retail Sales at $525 million. At the end of October 2023, the number had risen to $706 million, or approximately 34%.
Chart 2, “U.S. Retail Sales” Illustrates the unpredictability of the Retail Sales sector, showing a national response to the 2008 Financial Crisis followed by slow and steady growth until the COVID- 19 Pandemic in 2020, and then erratic and mercurial growth up until the present day. It is anticipated that sales will soon normalize and return to their previous “slow and steady” growth pattern. Starting towards the end of FY 2022-23, the chart has already begun to reflect a more stable trajectory and retail sales are beginning to cool.

As demonstrated in Table 2 below, on an unadjusted cash basis, sales tax receipts declined in FY 2022-23. Since the below numbers are shown on a slightly different accounting basis than the City’s books, City revenues will not directly reflect these numbers and some of the market cooling that occurred in the FY 2022-23 months will not post to the City’s financial statements until early FY 2023-
24. Likewise, some of the peak FY 2021-22 revenues have spilled over into the City’s FY 2022-23 financial statements.
Timing variances aside, almost all markets have slowed. This is due to a natural normalization period after upward swings during and following COVID. The rates of decline below were anticipated in City revenue projections but materialized later than originally thought.
Autos and Transportation have naturally slowed as supply chains around obtaining vehicles have cleared and interest rates have driven up the cost of personal vehicle purchases. Likewise, Building and Construction revenues have also decreased from peak levels as lumber prices normalize and interest rates slow home purchases and improvements. The Business and Industry category also reflects this market cooling. Food and Drugs cooling has slowed, approaching normalcy sooner than other categories, given peak levels during and just after COVID.
The City’s Sales Tax consultants are projecting a return to normalcy over the next couple of years as City of Stockton Printed on 1/19/2024Page 6 of 16

File #: 24-0048, Version: 1
supply chains, spending habits, and employment stop fluctuating due to recent unanticipated world events. During the next few years, this will likely result in moderate decreases followed by mild and consistent increases, at least until the next economic downturn. Due to adjustments for payment misallocations, the City’s General Ledger will not reflect the full effects of this slow-down until early in FY 2023-24.
Property Tax revenue estimates (including Motor Vehicle In-Lieu Fees) are up $1.3 million or 2% compared to the Approved Budget. Property Tax receipts make up approximately 22.4% of the City’s General Fund revenues. They are remitted to the City each year by the County of San Joaquin in January and April. Property Tax growth is attributable to increasing home values, commercial and industrial construction, and new home construction.
Utility Users Tax (UUT) is a 6% tax imposed on the users of various utilities and represents 13.2% of General Fund revenues. The FY 2022-23 UUT receipts are projected to be $42.4 million, which is
10.0% higher than the Approved Budget of $38.7 million. UUT is subject to a certain degree of volatility as consumers’ use of utilities can be dependent on weather conditions, conservation efforts, and the availability of substitutes. Most of the additional revenue has come from Electric & Gas - this is attributable to a PG&E rate increase at the start of 2023, as well as the FY 2022-23 winter season being notably longer and colder than anticipated.
While electricity and gas revenues were higher than anticipated, cable, water and telecommunications revenues declined compared to prior year receipts. As wireless technologies continue to expand, telecommunications will decline in usage as an ongoing trend. The decline in water billing is also attributable to a longer and wetter winter compared to recent years, causing a decrease in required irrigation and billable water usage.
Franchise Tax revenues are collected from companies that provide municipal services in three categories--PG&E, Cable/Video, and Waste Haulers--and make up approximately 5.9% of revenues.
These businesses are charged based on a percentage of income generated. Revenues from Electric & Gas came in 17% higher than budget, and Waste Haulers came in 11% higher than budget. The PG&E variance is attributable to the same reasons discussed in the UUT section above. The waste haulers’ variance is attributable to a City audit of businesses resulting in identifying entities that did not have required services and requiring them to sign up for the mandatory service. This audit resulted in more commercial waste hauler activity than in prior years.
Business License Tax revenues make up 6.8% of revenues. Business License Taxes are expected to end the year at $22.0 million or 56.8% increase over the prior year. Approximately 50% of business license tax collections occur in the last three months of the fiscal year, and this timing contributes to the volatility of year-end revenue projections. In addition, new efficiencies and cleanup related to the implementation of the City’s new financial system have resulted in more accurate and timely billing and bringing old accounts current. The increased revenues also include new types of Cannabis businesses permitted in previous years but only recently generating business license revenues based on sales. A portion of the revenues received in FY 2022-23 were catch-up payments or penalties related to business license cleanup and will not be reoccurring revenues.
While Hotel/Motel Tax revenues were $221,438 greater than the budget of $3.2 million, they came in
5.2% less than the prior year revenues of $3.6 million.

Document Transfer Tax revenues came in below budget by $171,519 and below the prior year by $597,072. A cooling in property sales after previous years’ surge has resulted in the Document Transfer Tax revenues starting to return to their pre-pandemic levels following a 33.9% increase in FY 2021-22. Home sale values reached peak levels in FY 2021-22 with early signs of market cooling towards the end of that year that continued into the present fiscal year.
Motor Vehicle License revenue receipts of $331,550 are 66% more than the budgeted amount of $200,000 but almost $40,000 less than FY 2021-22. Constrained supply led to much higher-than- expected sale values; however, recent data shows cooling consistent with the sales tax revenues discussed above and is expected to return to normal levels in FY 2023-24.
Interest Proceeds are highly dependent on unpredictable market performance. These amounts include proceeds from investments and the benefit of paying the full amount of the CalPERS Unfunded Accrued Liability payment in July rather than over the course of a year. Interest income is estimated to be an unprecedented $6.4 million, coming in $4.0 million more than the budget.
Additional investment earnings are due primarily to more cash on hand from one-time federal grant dollars and improved revenues as well as favorable performance of the City’s investment portfolio.
This return on investments is not expected to be maintained as one-time funding sources are expended and the investment environment normalizes.
Program Revenues are above budget by $2.2 million (13%). The categories with the most significant variances are discussed below:
· Fines & Forfeitures revenues have fluctuated, falling short of budget expectations by $147,908, or (27%). Traffic and parking enforcement activities that result in fine and forfeiture revenues often decline when the Police Department is experiencing higher vacancies as employee resources are deployed differently.
· Revenues from other Agencies ended the year up by 39% or $1.6 million, mainly due to $1.4 million above budget in the City’s share of Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund monies. The City also received State Mandated Cost reimbursements of $119,435 more than anticipated.
· Miscellaneous Other Revenues are heavily influenced by the allowance for doubtful accounts adjustment as well as the year-end bank reconciliation. As such, it is very difficult to anticipate and varies widely depending on the timing of the entry. It ended the year at $247,413 after being budgeted at ($172,271) for an increase of $419,684.
Refund & Reimbursement revenues came in 28% higher than budgeted or $267,960, largely due to cash reimbursement for police academy costs, as well as escheated checks, which are difficult to anticipate and budget for as the City’s assumption is that no checks will remain unclaimed.
General Fund Expenditures
Staff reviewed year-end General Fund expenditures as detailed in Attachment A. General Fund expenditures are projected to end the year at $328.8 million, which is $21.8 million, or 6.2% less than the Approved Budget. Except for Other Administration, all General Fund departmental activities ended the fiscal year below their appropriation levels.

The chart below summarizes all departments and programs' spending levels as a percent of their total budget compared with the Third Quarter projections.
The FY 2022-23 Budget included approximately $10.4 million in anticipated salary savings, which is
5.2% of the total salary and benefits budget of $201.2 million (includes full-time and part-time expenses). The labor market has become much more competitive since the pandemic, making retention and recruitment more difficult. In FY 2021-22, the vacancy rate was 11.5%, and this trend continued in FY 2022-23 with a total General Fund vacancy rate of 15.4%. The unanticipated additional savings of $20.5 million is the most significant cause of expenditure savings in the General Fund.

Most departments experienced greater-than-anticipated vacancy savings with salary expenses coming in under budget by about 15%. Below is a summary of those savings by department before factoring in budgeted vacancy savings.
The Police Department spent $13.8 million (8.8%) less than its authorized budget primarily due to vacancy savings. The department expanded recruitment efforts during FY 2022-23 via attendance at local events and media advertisements, implementing a wellness unit, and partnering with local educational institutions to pipeline students into a police field. As a result of these efforts, 33 officers were hired. Despite this, the department experienced 68 departures. In response to this result, in December of 2023, the City reprogrammed the staffing costs committed to 60 vacant and continuously unfilled positions towards expanded recruitment and retention benefits for all existing officer positions, effective April 1, 2024. It is expected that these expanded benefits will increase the City’s competitiveness in the law enforcement recruitment field.
The Fire Department ended the fiscal year with approximately $3.0 million in savings or 5.2% of the budget primarily due to vacancies. Fire Academy 22-2 and Fire Academy 23-1 successfully graduated Firefighter trainees that filled 31 vacant positions. Personnel attrition continued throughout the fiscal year and created additional vacancies of 11 sworn positions at the end of FY 2022-23.
Vacancy savings more than offset the additional overtime costs incurred by the department to maintain required emergency service levels.
In the Program Support for Other Funds category, the only notable budget variance is in the grant match category. There were no grants requiring matching funds from the General Fund in FY 2022- 23, leaving an unspent balance of $100,000. Grant match needs vary from year-to-year based on grant award requirements.

File #: 24-0048, Version: 1
The various departments under Administration (City Manager, City Attorney, City Clerk, City Auditor, Administrative Services, and Human Resources) cumulatively, came in 10.2% under budget primarily due to vacancy savings. Some items of note: Election expenses were less than budgeted because only one of three districts required a runoff in the November 2022 election. The Other Administration category shows an overage because it includes budgeted vacancy savings for smaller departments in the General Fund. A recommended budget amendment to spread this negative budget to the City Clerk’s Office, City Manager’s Office, the Office of Violence Prevention, City Attorney, and Economic Development will result in a positive balance.
Fund Balance and Reserves
With the above General Fund revenue and expenditure results, the variance from the FY 2022-23 budget is approximately $58.0 million. Expenditure savings are one-time dollars that should be spent on one-time costs. The revenues received over the budgeted amount are also one-time funds but can be indicative of an ongoing source of funds. Of the $36.2 million revenue variance, $20 million was known and incorporated into long-term planning during the most recent budget cycle for the FY 2023-24 Budget. At that time, it was programmed toward a variety of new expenditures. The City Council also approved successor labor agreements with four employee units in September 2023 that added ongoing expenses which draw on these revenue sources. The table below shows the previous commitments against the $58.0 million budget variance including labor agreements and new expenses in the FY 2023-24 Budget.
Table 4: Previous Commitments on Budget Variance
It is recommended that two commitments be funded out of the year-end balance before reserves or special projects are considered.
1. $1,469,000 in additional set-aside for future payments to Assured Guaranty under the City’s bankruptcy settlement. The increased revenue receipts in FY 2022-23 will increase future City of Stockton Printed on 1/19/2024Page 11 of 16

File #: 24-0048, Version: 1
payments by $1,469,000. This amount will be added to funds set aside in prior years for a total restriction of $3.6 million.
2. $925,000 for the repayment of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding to U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the Oak Park Ice Rink (OPIR) improvement project. This is based on the results from the Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2021 Remote Monitoring Review where HUD identified this activity as unable to meet HUD’s expectations to document that the activity met the Low/Mod Area Benefit CDBG national objective criteria. At the time of allocation in 2019, City staff determined that the OPIR met the CDBG national objective under the Low/Mod Income Area Benefit. This determination was made due to the high number of Stockton youth that utilize OPIR for birthday parties, ice skating, and ice hockey. Furthermore, Oak Park is in a census tract with economic indicators that meet the Low/Mod Area benefit criteria. After several attempts at clearing up this finding, City staff were unsuccessful at demonstrating that the project met a national objective and therefore needs to move forward with a repayment to HUD. The funds will go back to the CDBG program line of credit, for future allocation/use.
After the above commitments, there is expected to be $35.3 million in fund balance that is not assigned to any kind of reserve, made up of non-spendable assets (such as inventory), nor encumbered or carried forward for future years expenditures by prior Council action. This resolution recommends that $21.45 million be set aside for the Council projects and $13.8 million be assigned to the various reserves.
Per the City Council General Fund Reserve Policy, the target reserve levels are as follows. These target funding levels are based on calculations that are adopted each year as part of the annual budget process. The target under the reserve policy totals $203.1 million. With recommended increases to the Working Capital Reserve ($1.1 million) and to the Known Contingency Reserve ($12.7 million), the total funded reserves would be $127.1 million, or 39% of annual expenditures.
Target Level
Recommended Funding
Priority 1:
1. Working Capital $48.3 million $48.3 million
2. Known Contingencies $74.0 million $68.0 million
Priority 2:
3. Risk-Based Reserves $80.8 million $10.8 million
While there is sufficient funding to fully fund the Priority 1 reserves, the recommendation is to use a portion of these funds to improve services and facilities for the community. This approach will balance the City’s priorities, follow the reserve policy, fund vital Council priority projects while safeguarding against the immediate economic slowdown, and significantly improve the City’s ability to weather the next economic downturn, while still providing a small amount of short-term “breathing room” for small discretionary costs in FY 2023-24.

Funding for Projects
City departments proposed over $60.0 million in potential uses for $21.5 million in year-end funds.
Table 5 below is a summary of the recommended projects from that list. In addition to the listed projects, Staff is recommending that $5.0 million be reserved for one-time Council priority projects to be allocated as directed by the Council. Some proposed uses of the $5.0 million are shown in Attachment C.
Table 5: Funding for Projects (dollars in thousands)
Long-Range Financial Plan
The City’s updated Long-Range Financial Plan (L-RFP) incorporates the revised year-end financial projections. The projected increase in the General Fund available fund balance will fund reserves essential to keeping the fund balance above the 5% warning level over the next 20 years.
The graph below illustrates the short and long-term impact on the General Fund available balance forecast compared to the 16.7% Working Capital reserve and the 5% warning level. The bars depict the General Fund ending available fund balance at each fiscal year-end beginning with actual balances for FY 2018-19 through FY 2022-23 and continuing forward based on forecasts. The light blue bars represent the Working Capital reserve. The dark blue portion of the bars includes both Known Contingency and Risk-Based reserves. The yellow bars represent the projected Pension Trust balance.
As shown in the graph, the available balance is above the 16.7% goal for all projected years due to updated revenue projections. The combined balance from Pension Trust dollars and current year balances enables the General Fund to weather more than ten years of deficit spending starting in FY 2025-26 and totaling more than $140 million. Expenditures are greater than revenues for 13 of the next 20 years starting in FY 2025-26, which draws down the fund balance. Funds in the Pension Trust are depleted by FY 2034-35.
Chart 5 reflects the recommended actions to allocate $21.45 million to priority projects and to increase reserves by $12.7 million. It does not include the ongoing cost to reopen Fire Truck No. 7 once grant funding is exhausted. In the current L-RFP, the annual General Fund cost of $3.5 million for Truck No. 7 is slightly out of reach. Chart 6 shows the General Fund balance at almost $0 in FY 2039-40 when these additional costs are incorporated. It is anticipated that the long-term fund balance will improve in the L-RFP model as more assumptions are updated in preparation for the City of Stockton Printed on 1/19/2024Page 13 of 16

File #: 24-0048, Version: 1
revenues and expenditures are both over budget by about 3%. The additional revenues received will cover the overage in expenses, so an $8,500 budget amendment increasing both revenues and expenditures is recommended.
In most cases, the other funds all experienced revenue at or greater than expected and expenditures below budget - this is largely attributable to salary savings. No other action is required to balance these funds.
FINANCIAL SUMMARY
This report provides an analysis of FY 2022-23 fourth-quarter budget status results. The unaudited 12-month period review indicates General Fund revenue increases and expenditure savings are estimated to result in a year-end balance that can fully fund the Working Capital Reserve and mostly fund the Known Contingency Reserve. No additional funding is being contributed toward Priority II - Risk-Based Reserves.
Following are the budget amendments and transactions needed to complete the recommended actions:
1. Accept this budget status report on the unaudited results of the fourth quarter of FY 2022-23.
2. Allocate Vacancy Savings budget reduction for FY 2022-23 from Other Administration (Non- Departmental) category to the following departments:
Reduce Expenditure Budget:
Department
Division/Fund Amount
a. City Clerk 1110-100-000 $ 37,000
b. City Manager 1230-100-000 $125,000
c. Office of Violence Prevention 1220-100-000 $ 67,000 d. City Attorney 1410-100-000 $ 93,000
e. Economic Development 6000-100-000 $107,000
$429,000
Increase Expenditure Budget:
Other Administration $429,000
3. Authorize a $925,000 budget appropriation from the FY 2022-23 ending balance to the General Fund to reimburse the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) fund for costs associated with the Oak Park Ice Arena improvements in FY 2023-24. Staff originally expended CDBG funding on these improvements, but the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) later deemed the project ineligible for that funding, resulting in $925,000 in ineligible costs that will need to be reimbursed by the General Fund over the next two years.
However, the $925,000 will return to the City’s account with HUD to be drawn down for future eligible projects.
4. Authorize a reserve for future appropriation of $1,469,000 from FY 2022-23 available funds for the estimated increase in the Assured Guaranty Settlement contingent payments for a total reserve of $3,600,000.

5. Authorize a FY 2022-23 appropriation of $21,450,000 from the General Fund balance for Council priority projects identified in the resolution including restoration of Fire Station 7, parks maintenance, and the Victory Park Pool.
6. Allocate available fund balance to reserve categories consistent with the Council Reserve and Fund Balance Policy - General Fund Policy. The net increase in fund balance will be added to the current reserve levels, as displayed in Table 6, to achieve the total reserve amounts as follows:
Priority 1 Reserves
Working Capital $48,300,000
Known Contingency $68,000,000
Priority 2 Reserves
Risk-Based Reserves $10,800,000
7. Authorize a FY 2022-23 budget amendment increasing expenditure and revenue appropriations in the Downtown Marina Fund.
