The Reorganization/Budget Subcommittee was established to review the existing City organizational structure, identify Council budget priorities, and also to make budget recommendations during the budget process. The Reorganization/Budget Subcommittee met with all departments, received their proposed budgets, and made subsequent budget recommendations and recommended organizational changes in efforts to streamline staffing needs and improve overall efficiency in delivery of services. On June 17, 2014, the City Council held the first of two (2) Council meetings to discuss the FY 15 City Manager's Proposed City Budget. City staff presented on the following: • FY 14 General Fund Year-End Performance • FY 14 Year-End Budget Adjustments • FY 15 Fiscal Issues and Challenges • Reorganization/Budget Subcommittee Recommendations for the Following Departments: o Human Resources o Public Safety o Public Works o Recreation & Community Services o Finance & Administration o Public Relations o Community Development o Successor Agency • Other FY 15 Proposed Budget Recommendations • Revenue Enhancements At the first budget meeting, the City Council had several concerns with regard to the proposed organizational changes and did not take any action. Specifically, Council asked the Human Resources Department to review all proposed position changes and for the Finance Director to verify the fiscal impacts of the proposed organizational changes. Further, Council directed that all departments be brought back for consideration at the June 24, 2014 meeting. At this meeting, City Council will be asked to approve year-end budget adjustments to the FY 14 Adjusted Budget and receive presentations for all departments presented at the June 171h Budget Meeting, as well as presentations from the following departments that were not presented: • • City Manager • City Clerk • City Treasurer 2 • Development Services The City Council will also receive a detailed presentation on the FY 15 City Manager's Proposed City Budget. Discussion & Analysis: FY 14 Year-End Budget Adjustments: 1. Waste Hauler Related Revenues and Expenditures: Due to the creation of the new Refuse Fund in November 2013, the City began recording all waste hauler specific revenues (Waste Collection, Franchise Fees, and Rubbish Admin Fees) and Sanitation Division expenditures (i.e. CDS/WRI Contract, salaries and benefits) in the new Refuse Fund. From July 2013 to October 2013, these revenues and expenditures were recorded in the General Fund. The Sanitation Division budget and waste hauler revenues historically have been recorded in the General Fund and were included in the FY 14 Adopted General Fund Budget. Therefore, the following budget adjustments are needed to properly account for the transfer of waste hauling revenues and expenditures from the General Fund to the Refuse Fund: • Revenues -Transfer Refuse Collection Franchise Franchise Fees, Residential Waste Collection Fees, and Rubbish Administrative Fees revenues: a. Budgeted Revenues -$3.060.000 b. Actual Recorded Revenues -$980.955 • Expenditures -Transfer Sanitation Division expenditures (i.e. CDS/WRI Contract, salaries and benefits) and other waste hauling expenditures (i.e. CDS Forensic Audit): a. Budgeted Expenditures-$2.347.746 b. Actual Recorded Expenditures-$691.203 2. General Fund Subsidy to Support Citywide Services: Franchise Fees and Administrative Fees associated with the waste hauler contract are generally reserved for General City purposes and uses (and are not necessarily reserved for specific waste hauler operations). Since these vital revenue sources are no longer received in the General Fund, to maintain sufficient funding levels in the General Fund and support Citywide services provided to residents, staff recommends a Transfer In from the Refuse Fund to the General Fund in the amount of $919.751. Staff also recommends that Council approve additional budget adjustments attached as Exhibit A. 3 If the above budget adjustments are adopted, the City's projected ending General Fund balance for FY 14 will be $4.8 million. If these budget adjustments are not approved, the City will end FY 14 with a $3.9 million General Fund balance and be at high risk of falling below the City's minimum reserve level by the end of FY 15. The City's minimum reserve level policy is 10% of the City's Operating Budget, which is projected to be $2.7 million for FY 15. Although technically the $3.9 million General Fund balance is unrestricted, the balance should not fall below the $2.7 minimum General Fund balance level. 4 FY 15 City Manager Proposed Budget Overview Citywide Funds The FY 15 City Manager Proposed Budget was developed in the context of a steady economy with flat revenue growth offset by rising operating costs for the General Fund. Property Tax and Sales Tax are expected to see slight declines in FY 15, while Utility Users Tax (UUT) revenues will increase to offset this revenue shortfall. The FY 15 City Manager Proposed Budget also focuses on meeting the Council's reserve policies for the General Fund, Garage Fund, and Water Enterprise Fund, as well as the Contingency Set Aside policy. The Citywide expenditure budget, including transfers between funds, and excluding the Successor Agency, totals $123 million and is funded by $102.6 million in revenues and the use of $20.4 million of available reserves, including bond proceeds for capital projects. The Citywide budget includes all funds and programs, such as the Water Enterprise Fund, HUD Funds, Street Lighting and Landscape Maintenance Assessment Districts, and the General Fund.

General Fund The FY 15 City Manager Proposed Budget contains recommended actions that increase overall General Fund expenditures by 1.2% (or $314K) from the FY 14 Adopted Budget, excluding waste hauling revenues and expenditures. FY 15 City Manager Proposed General Fund expenditures in the amount of $27.3 million are offset by $26.4 million in projected revenues and $0.9 million in reserves. The budget includes transfers out for debt service payments. Based on the projected revenues and proposed expenditures, it is anticipated that the General Fund will end FY 15 with $3.9 million in reserves. 6 TABLE 2 FY 15 CITY MANAGER PROPOSED GENERAL FUND BUDGET FY 14 FY 14 FY 15 AdFoYp 1t4e d ABduodpgteedt Year-End City Manager Budget R(eLfeussse ) (UEnstaiumdaitteesd ) PBroupdogseetd Revenues Property Tax $8,809,736 $8,809,736 $8,376,739 $8,396,348 Sales Tax 3,935,442 3,935,442 3,834,847 3,803,825 Utility Users Tax 5,166,519 5,166,519 5,635,927 5,477,460 Franchise Fees 1 '196,000 576,000 640,664 640,656 Business License & Other Tax 874,750 874,750 943,475 874,750 Charges for Current Services 3,228,950 1,088,980 1,511,945 1 '187,450 Fines, Forfeits, & Penalties 1,582,000 1,582,000 1,371,388 1,582,000 Other Revenues 2,084,051 1,784,051 2,036,152 1,720,428 Transfers In 1 958 850 1 958 850 4 470 800 2 733 850 Total Revenues $28,836,298 $25,776,328 $28,821,937 $26,416,767 Exoenditures Salaries & Benefits $7,614,709 $7,574,112 $7,693,974 $7,567,870 Public Safety 14,001,513 14,001,513 14,440,073 14,918,450 Other Operational Expenditures 5,853,020 3,765,520 3,844,719 3,840,576 Transfers Out (Eliminate Deficit Funds)' 884,958 884,958 3,312,499 -Transfers Out (Debt Service l 721,394 721,394 721,394 715,972 Transfers Out (Landscape Fund OperatinQ Deficit) ---131,505 Transfers Out (Self-Insurance Fund/Litigation) ---104,000 Transfers Out (Contingency) 16 478 16 478 48 675 -Total Expenditures $29,092,072 $26,963,975 $30,061 ,334 $27,278,373 Use of (Reserves)/Surplus ($255,774) ($1 '187,647) ($1,239,397) ($861,606) Beginning Fund Balance $5,988,040 $5,988,040 $5,988,040 $4,748,643 Ending Fund Balance $5,732,266 $4,800,393 $4,748,643 $3,887,037 1 One-Time Transfer Out to eliminate cumulative deficit funds. 7 Reorganization/Budget Subcommittee In April 2014, the City Council established several City subcommittees to strategically plan and address key Citywide areas of concern, one of which is the Reorganization/Budget Subcommittee. The Reorganization/Budget Subcommittee was established to review the existing City organizational structure, identify Council budget priorities, and also to make budget recommendations during the budget process. All Department Heads were required to meet with the Budget Subcommittee to review their operations and to propose any necessary adjustments to improve overall efficiency and service levels. The Reorganization/Budget Subcommittee met with all departments and approved their proposed budgets. The Reorganization/Budget Subcommittee made budget recommendations and recommended several organizational changes for each department in order to streamline staffing needs and improve overall efficiency in delivery of services. A summary of the major recommended changes are listed below: • New Community Development Department -Due to the vacancy left with the promotion of the former Director of Community Development to the City Manager, it was determined that merging the Public Relations and Community Development Departments would be beneficial to the City by cost reductions from consolidating the two Director positions while maintaining the same level of service. A portion of the Director of Community Development's salary will also be absorbed by the Successor Agency which in turn will constitute General Fund spending reductions. The Public Relations Department (with the exception of the Marketing and Public Information Divisions) will be consolidated with the existing Community Development Department, which includes the Business License Division, to form a new Community Development Department. The Director of Public Relations will become the new Director of Community Development and oversee operations. • New Technology and Media Support Services Department -The Marketing, Public Information, and Information Technology (IT) Services Divisions will be consolidated to form a new department called Technology and Media Support Services. The formation of this new department will augment the role of IT to streamline and improve the marketing and branding of the City to advertise City services and events, and generate more revenue where possible. In addition, this new department will provide Citywide support services for all departments for all their IT support and marketing needs. • Community Events Budget -The Reorganization/Budget Subcommittee is proposing to restore the Community Events Budget of $154K for all Citywide events. However, in FY 15, the City will partner with the Greater New Lynwood Chamber of Commerce and re-direct these resources to the Chamber, who will assume the direct management and planning of certain Citywide events. Of the $154K Community Events Budget, $72,500 will be given to the Chamber in FY 14, which is included in Exhibit A. 8 This will create much-needed savings in staffing and operational costs, as well as allow the Chamber to fundraise and enhance these great events for the community. There will be no fiscal impact to the General Fund, as the Community Events Budget will be budgeted in the Refuse Fund. The Special Events Subcommittee will meet to establish an agreement to designate how the funds will be spent and identify reporting requirements. • City Clerk/City Treasurer -As the City Clerk and City Treasurer are part-time elected officials, all City Clerk and City Treasurer staff will be under the oversight of the City Manager's Office to improve the day-to-day efficiency of operations in these departments. The municipal code will be amended to clarify reporting functions, which will be presented at a later Council meeting. All other proposed department reorganizations and fiscal impacts are listed in more detail in Exhibit B. These remaining department's (Community Development, City Clerk, City Treasurer, City Manager, and Development Services) proposed budgets will be presented today, along with the previous presented departments, and staff is recommending Council take action and approve each department's proposed budget. The total General Fund fiscal impact for all department proposals' presented will result in savings in the amount of $23K. Human Resources Review of Proposed Reorganization Changes Following the first budget meeting, staff met with Human Resources (HR) to review all proposed reorganization changes and to properly classify each position change in accordance with all personnel regulations and meet and confer requirements. The HR Director indicated that the time needed to properly review all proposed reclassifications with requested job titles, and position additions and deletions, would exceed the budget adoption dates. However, the HR Director recommended the following approval process for all proposed position changes and department reorganizations: 1) City Council should approve or not approve each proposed proposed position change as presented in the budget presentation; 2) City Council can make alternative recommendations to any proposed position change presented; 3) The Human Resources Department will review all approved position changes following the budget adoption meetings, and validate and/or make recommendations for proper position titles and pay bands for all approved position changes; 4) In addition to Council approval AND Human Resources review and approval, all approved position changes must go before and be approved by the Personnel Board and further, must be subject to all personnel rules and procedures, and meet and confer requirements. All position changes approved by Council will not take effect until the pending review and approval by the HR Department AND Personnel Commission. These approved changes are also subject to all Union Meet and Confer requirements. 9 The FY 15 City Manager Proposed Budget. will include all proposed organizational changes. Should any approved position change be overturned by HR or Personnel Commission, the budget will be adjusted accordingly during the FY 15 Mid-Year Financial Review. Fiscal Impact of Proposed Reorganizations & Methodology The Finance & Administration Department has reviewed all Department proposed reorganizations and has correctly verified all fiscal impacts associated with each department's proposed position changes. The fiscal impact for each department as presented in Exhibit B represents the true fiscal impact of net positions added/deleted/reclassified as it increases or decreases the General Fund. The itemized analysis of all position changes is also included in Exhibit B, with a general overview of the methodology to determine the fiscal impact is summarized below: • All proposed position changes are inclusive of the FY 15 approved MOU agreement salary increases • All proposed position changes are calculated based on the FY 15 benefit rates • Reclassifications -The fiscal impact for all proposed reclassifications is the net difference in pay (including benefits) between the new proposed position/job title and the current position/job title • Additions/Deletions -The fiscal impact for all proposed additions/deletions is the net difference in pay (including benefits) between the positions added and positions deleted • Operational Savings -Any proposed operational savings will also be included and added to the net fiscal impact for all proposed position changes All proposed shifts of divisions to and from departments do not net a fiscal impact because there is no net increase/decrease for the General Fund. These reorganizational proposals are listed as a i.Q. fiscal impact in each department's reorganization summary in Exhibit B. Other FY 15 Proposed Budget Recommendations The FY 15 City Manager Proposed Budget is the fourth year of a multi-year approach addressing the fiscal issues and challenges listed above. The FY 15 City Manager Proposed Budget recommends the following actions: 1) Increase rates charged to departments to cover the annual cost of programs included in the Self-Insurance Fund to prevent subsidies from the General Fund. 2) Continue to cost-allocate contracts and Citywide services to all departments to reflect true costs of services and shift costs to other applicable funds, providing relief and savings in the General Fund where possible (i.e. insurance premiums, security contract). 3) Continue to monitor spending in prior deficit funds. City staff noted that there is an ongoing structural deficit in the Landscape Maintenance Assessment Fund as 10 projected expenditures exceed revenues. A General Fund subsidy is required for this fund. 4) In order to maintain adequate funding levels in the General Fund and support Citywide services provided to residents, staff recommends a Transfer In from the Refuse Fund to the General Fund in the amount of $BOOK in FY 15. 5) Properly budget for Citywide legal and litigation costs by: maintaining a sufficient legal services budget, reflecting true legal costs in the appropriate departments, and shifting claim-related legal costs to the Self Insurance Fund. 6) Satisfy the General Fund reserve requirements. The City must continue to be conservative and manage its fiscal affairs in an appropriate manner. The road to long-term financial and operational stability requires leadership, commitment, planning, and effective execution as well as a thriving national and local economy. As stewards of public funds and provider of services to the Lynwood community, the most favorable financial outcome for the City is financial resiliency to ensure that the City can continue to provide services to the community and meet its mandates. Revenue Enhancements Since FY 10, property and sales tax revenues have increased by a combined 5.3% (or $612K). During that time, UUT revenues have decreased by 6.8% (or $401 K). Revenue increases in property and sales taxes have been offset by declining UUT revenues, which have resulted in flat revenues. The lack of general growth in revenues has deepened the use of the City's reserves to stabilize the City's operations. While efforts to close the budget gap have traditionally focused on budget cuts, staff recommends that Council consider increasing revenues and maximizing revenue recovery. City staff recommends consideration of the following revenue enhancements and/or new fees: • Graduated Fines for Repeat Property Nuisance Abatements • Dog Feces Fine • Off Leash Dog Fine • Improve Enforcement of Existing Codes and Recovery of Unpaid Fines • New Utility Late Payment Fee -Implement and enforce new fee for delinquent payment of utility bills • City Branding & Marketing Fees -Explore new avenues and improve branding and advertising opportunities, such as in cell phone towers, bus shelters, billboards, etc. All new fees and revenue enhancement ideas are listed in more detail for Council approval in Exhibit C. In addition to flat revenue growth, unavoidable operational increases continue to surpass Citywide budget reductions annually and deplete the City's use of reserves. Over the last six (6) fiscal years, Public Safety contracts increased by an average of $307K per year, while service levels remained the same. CaiPERS retirement costs and health premiums are also unavoidable costs thatcontinue to increase. In order to 11 contend with these unavoidable operational increases, the City Council may want to consider a sales tax increase to support increased operations costs and avoid largescale cuts to vital services we provide to our community in future fiscal years. Key Legislation City staff has also identified pending legislation that could have a significant fiscal impact on City. Legislation includes the following: • AB 1717 Prepaid Wireless -Would allow City to collect UUT on prepaid wireless services. • AB 2493 Redevelopment Bonds -Would allow City to use 2011 redevelopment bond proceeds in the amount of $20.3 million. • Pension Tax Legislation -Would allow the City to collect an additional $BOOK annually in retirement tax revenues. Fiscal Impact: If City Council elects to adopt the FY 15 City Manager Proposed Budget, the projected fund balance would be $3.9 million at the end of FY 15.

WWW.DCIF".CA.DCIV Cn:lCE OF" THE DIRECTOR May 2014 Dear Fiscal Officer: Subject: Price and Population Information Appropriations Limit The California Revenue and Taxation Code, section 2227, mandates the Department of Finance (Finance) to transmit an estimate of the percentage change in population to local governments. Each local jurisdiction must use their percentage change in population factor for January 1, 2014, in conjunction with a change in the cost of living, or price factor, to calculate their appropriations limit for fiscal year 2014-15. Attachment A provides the change in California's per capita personal income and an example for utilizing the price factor and population percentage change factor to calculate the 2014-15 appropriations appropriations limit. Attachment B provides city and unincorporated county population percentage change. Attachment C provides population percentage change for counties and their summed incorporated areas. The population percentage change data excludes federal and state institutionalized populations and military populations. Population Percent Change for Special Districts Some special districts must establish an annual appropriations limit. Consult the Revenue and Taxation Code section 2228 for further information regarding the appropriations limit. Article XIII B, section 9(C), of the State Constitution exempts certain special districts from the appropriations limit calculation mandate. The Code and the California Constitution can be accessed at the following website: http:llleginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes.xhtml. Special districts required by law to calculate their appropriations limit must present the calculation as part of their annual audit. Any questions special districts have on this issue should be referred to their respective county for clarification, or to their legal representation, or to the law itself. No state agency reviews the local appropriations limits. Population Certification The population certification program applies only to cities and counties. Revenue and Taxation Code section 11005.6 mandates Finance to automatically certify any population estimate that exceeds the current certified population with the State Controller's Office. Finance will certify the higher estimate to the State Controller by June 1, 2014. Please Note: Prior year's city population estimates may be revised. If you have any questions regarding this data, please contact the Demographic Research Unit at (916) 323-4086. MICHAEL COHEN Director By: KEELY M. BOSLER Chief Deputy Director Attachment May 2014 Attachment A A. Price Factor: Article XIII B specifies that local jurisdictions select their cost of living factor to compute their appropriation limit by a vote of their governing body. The cost of living factor provided here is per capita personal income. If the percentage change in per capita personal income is selected, the percentage change to be used in setting the fiscal year 2014-15 appropriation limit is: Per Capita Personal Income Fiscal Year (FY) Percentage change over prior year 2014-15 -0.23 B. Following is an example using sample population change and the change in California per capita personal income as growth factors in computing a 2014-15 appropriation limit. 2014-15: Per Capita Cost of Living Change = -0.23 percent Population Change = 0.95 percent Per Capita Cost of Living converted to a ratio: Population converted to a ratio: Calculation of factor for FY 2014-15: -0.23 + 100 = 0.9977 100 0.95 + 100 = 1.0095 100 0.9977 X 1.0095 = 1.0072 Fiscal Year2014-15 Attachment B Annual Percent Change in Population Minus Exclusions* January 1, 2013 to January 1, 2014 and Total Population, January 1, 2014 Total County Percent Change Po~:;~:ulation Minus Exclusions Po(!ulation City 2013-2014 1·1·13 1-1-14 1-1-2014 Los Angeles Agoura Hills 0.47 20,528 20,625 20,625 Alhambra 0.48 84,290 84,697 84,697 Arcadia 1.05 56,901 57,500 57,500 Artesia 0.51 16,606 16,690 16,776 Avalon 0.55 3,799 3,820 3,820 Azusa 1.62 47,614 48,385 48,385 Baldwin Park 0.46 76,362 76,715 76,715 Bell 0.47 35,804 35,972 35,972 Bellflower 0.53 77,330 77,741 77,741 Bell Gardens 0.48 42,463 42,667 42,667 Beverly Hills 0.47 34,515 34,677 34,677 Bradbury 0.74 1,074 1,082 1,082 Burbank 0.47 105,045 105,543 105,543 Calabasas 0.53 23,816 23,943 23,943 Carson 0.42 92,251 92,636 92,636 Cerritos 0.47 49,506 49,741 49,741 Claremont 0.42 35,768 35,920 35,920 Commerce 0.47 12,942 13,003 13,003 Compton 0.49 97,608 98,082 98,082 Covina 0.48 48,387 48,619 48,619 Cudahy 0.47 24,028 24,142 24,142 Culver City 0.88 39,233 39,579 39,579 Diamond Bar 0.48 56,133 56,400 56,400 Downey 0.47 112,829 113,363 113,363 Duarte 0.47 21,567 21,668 21,668 El Monte 0.49 114,503 115,064 115,064 EISegundo 0.49 16,815 16,897 16,897 Gardena 0.81 59,602 60,082 60,082 Glendale 1.05 193,769 195,799 195,799 Glendora 1.17 50,697 51,290 51,290 Hawaiian Gardens 0.50 14,384 14,456 14,456 Hawthorne 1.31 85,526 86,644 86,644 Hermosa Beach 0.43 19,666 19,750 19,750 Hidden Hills 0.64 1,889 1,901 1,901 Huntington Park 0.63 58,661 59,033 59,033 Industry 0.23 437 438 438 Inglewood 0.50 111,238 111,795 111,795 Irwindale 0.76 1,455 1,466 1.466 La Canada Flintridge 0.41 20,452 20,535 20,535 *Exclusions include residents on federal military installations and group quarters residents in state mental institutions, state and federal correctional institutions and veteran homes.
