1 City of Rancho Cucamonga Fiscal Year 2013/14 Operating Budget Midyear Budget Update Presented to the City Council February 19, 2014

2 Operating Budget Comprised of: – City General Fund – Library Fund – Fire District Funds Midyear Budget Update covers activity through December 31, 2013

3 Factors Influencing Operating Budget Continuing to recover from past revenue declines, slowly and gradually Local economy is doing well – Unemployment levels continue to improve Rancho Cucamonga: 5.6% (December 2013) County of San Bernardino: 8.7% (December 2013) – Firms located within the City have recouped the substantial losses in employment that occurred during the recent recession

4 Factors Influencing Operating Budget – Housing market continues to recover Residential properties under mortgage duress declined from recent levels of 800-1,000 homes to only 261 homes Prices are increasing over prior year (up 20% for existing homes and up 28% for new homes) The City’s economic-employment growth is generating a higher level of demand for new homes than the currently active residential projects are providing

5 General Fund Snapshot

6 Top Seven Revenues Account for approximately 91% of total General Fund revenues, compared to 88% in the prior year

7 Top Seven Revenues (cont’d) Sales tax – Due to the “Triple Flip,” we only receive 75% of our base revenues from State allocations – Remaining 25% is remitted by County in February and June (subsequent to midyear) – Revenues are projected to be slightly under budget by fiscal year end due to a negative adjustment by the SBOE for a prior year misallocation – Although things are slowly improving, the City is still 4.9% below the pre-economic downturn sales tax revenues in FY 2007/08

8 Top Seven Revenues (cont’d) Vehicle License Fees (VLF) – Received $75,900 of VLF as of midyear – No further revenue will be received due to State’s prior year redirection of VLF to COPS grant program (SB89) – Property tax-in-lieu of VLF is received after midyear; anticipate revenues to exceed budget by $35,130

9 Top Seven Revenues (cont’d) Franchise Fees – Largest components received in April – Other franchise fees are in line with budget Property Tax – Collections are slightly less than at this time last year due to earlier than anticipated payment of the City’s share of the County Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF) distribution in the prior year – Revenues should be slightly ahead of budget by fiscal year end

10 Top Seven Revenues (cont’d) Development Fees – Generally coming in as anticipated, with collection percentages ranging from 70% to 125% due to the current surge in development activity Business Licenses – On track with projections Transient Occupancy Taxes – Performing above projections – Slightly higher than at this time last year

11 Departmental Expenditures

12 Departmental Expenditures (cont’d) Generally on target as of midyear Factors contributing to slightly higher percentage expended/encumbered: – Annual contracts fully encumbered at beginning of year – Certain overhead cost allocations completely allocated at beginning of year Central services departments (in italics above) have a slightly lower percentage expended/encumbered as of midyear due to full allocation of City’s Cost Allocation Plan (CAP).

13 Departmental Expenditures (cont’d) – CAP allocation results in a net reduction to the central services departments’ General Fund budgets – CAP allocation increased from prior year – These costs have been allocated to non-General Fund sources Potential savings by end of fiscal year – Less than anticipated usage of reimbursable contract services for development-related activities – Salary savings due to personnel vacancies – Partially offset by cost increases in contract services

14 Library Fund Snapshot

15 Library Fund Snapshot (continued) Property tax makes up approximately 85% of the Library’s budget – Includes a pass-through from the County RPTTF received twice per fiscal year (previously distributed by the former Redevelopment Agency) Pass-through represents 36% of property tax revenue – Also includes additional post-RDA property tax revenues due to elimination of former RDA (4% of property tax revenue) Revenues and expenditures should be in line with budget as of fiscal year end

16 Fire Funds Snapshot Includes General Fund, CFD 85-1 and CFD 88-1

17 Fire Funds Snapshot (continued) Property tax makes up approximately 94% of the Fire District’s budget (91% in prior year) – Includes post-RDA property tax revenues due to elimination of RDA Fire District revenues are anticipated to be slightly less than budget, primarily for CFD 85-1, due to less than anticipated property tax receipts for this special district Expenditures are on track and within budget as of midyear

18 Summary Overall, the City’s operating budget is performing well as of midyear and is consistent with the prior year Generally, revenues are on track with, or slightly ahead of, projections and expenditures are on track with, or slightly below, historical norms
