SUMMARY
The Finance Department prepares quarterly financial reports for the General Fund that
reflect budget to actual comparisons, projected revenues and expenditures, and highlight
major variances that may require additional action or changes. The quarterly financial
reports are in compliance with Section 504 (f) of the City Charter, which requires that
quarterly financial reports be filed by the Director of Finance through the City Manager.
In preparing the quarterly financial projections, staff has identified various budget
changes that are needed to better reflect actual revenues and expenditures. For
government entities, a budget creates a legal framework for spending during the fiscal
year. After the budget is approved there are circumstances, which arise that could require
adjustments to the approved budget. Council Policy 220-02 "Financial Reporting and
Transfer Authority" was established in January of 1996 and allows for budget transfers to
be completed. Staff is recommending changes in *.he General Fund as well as various
other funds.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW

OCTOBER 23, 2012, Item 2
Page 2 of 6
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed activity for
compliance with the Catifomia Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined
that filing of the quarterly financial status report is not a "Project" as defined under
Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines because it will not result in a physical
change to the environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA
Guidelines the actions proposed are not subject to CEQA.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council accept the report and approve the resolution.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Not applicable.
DISCUSSION
The Finance Department prepares quarterly financial reports for the General Fund that
reflect budget to actual comparisons, projected revenues and expenditures, and highlight
major variances that may require additional action or changes. The quarterly financial
reports are in compliance with Section 504 (f) of the City Charter, which requires that
quarterly financial reports be filed by the Director of Finance through the City Manager.
Attachment A -Quarterly Financial Report provides the financial outlook for the General
Fund for the current fiscal year and includes summary information for revenues and
expenditures.
The following chart summarizes the projections for the first quarter of fiscal year
2012/13.
As noted on the table above, General Fund revenues and expenditures are tracking with
budget based on activity through the end of the first quarter. The Second Quarter
Financial Report will allow for a more thorough review of current year revenue and
expenditure trends. Staff will recommend adjustments at that time as needed based on
the mid-year projections.
2-2
Note: The yeaz-end closing process is underway and the beginning reserve level may
be updated once the final audited numbers are available-
OCTOBER 23, 2012, Item 2-
Page 3 of 6
At this time, variances in revenues and expenditures do not result in an adjustment to the
total projected expenditures and revenues for June 30, 2013. However, there are some
areas of concern that staff will continue to monitor and recommend adjustments as
needed in the Second Quarter Financial report. Areas of concern include the following:
• Unemployment insurance -unemployment insurance claims have not returned to
pre-January 2011 levels. The budget for fiscal year 2013 budget assumed that
unemployment insurance would drop to a level consistent with other years where
major layoffs did not occur. Unemployment insurance claims are trending high
based on the Fourth Quarter payment for fiscal year 2012.
• Department program revenues -there are some variances in program revenues.
Several program revenues are trending lo~v including parking citations, negligent
vehicle impound fees, code enforcement violations, and staff time
reimbursements. Staff will continue to analyze revenue trends in this area.
• Transfers from other funds -revenue received from transfers from other funds are
projected to be $2.0 million below the current budget due to the passage of
AB1484. AB1484 prevents loan payments to the General Fund from the
Successor Agency to the Redevelopment Agency in this fiscal year. It is
projected that the $2.0 million revenue short-fall will be fully mitigated by a $I.0
million one-time adjustment in property tax revenue related to the dissolution of
the redevelopment agencies and increased projected general purpose revenues.
Overall, the first quarter financial projections indicate some potential challenges but no
budgetary adjustments are recommended at this time.
SudgetAmeudments .
In preparing the quarterly financial projections, staff has identified various budget
changes that are needed to better reflect actual revenues and expenditures. For
government entities, a budget creates a legal framework for spending during the fiscal
year. After the budget is approved there are circumstances, which arise that could require
adjustments to the approved budget. Council Policy 220-02 ``Financial Reporting and
Transfer Authority" was established in January of 1996 and allows for budget transfers to
be completed. Staff is recommending changes in the General Fund as well as various
other funds.
General Fund Amendments
Staff is recommending budget amendments in Recreation, Non-Departmental, and Public
Works. These changes result in no net fiscal impact to the General Fund.
Recreation Department - The Recreation Department is requesting two budget
adjustments that result in no net fiscal impact to the General Fund. The first adjustment
is a transfer of existing funds from the Supplies and Services category to the Personnel
Services category. The second request is a revenue offset appropriation of $7,116 to the
Department's Supplies and Services budget.
2-3
OCTOBER 23, 2012, Item Z _
Page 4 of 6
• Staff is requesting to transfer $48,153 from Supplies and Services to Personnel
Services for part-time hourly personnel to help staff the extended hours at the
recreation centers. This dollar amount exceeds the City Manager's $15,000
transfer approval limit behveen budget categories and thus requires Council
approval.
• The Recreation Department received unanticipated revenue of $7,116 as
reimbursement from an AmeriCorps planning grant. The funds will be
appropriated to cover expenses for Motion Picture Association fees, in order for
films to be shown to the public at recreation facilities; copier and supply costs at
Otay Recreation Center; and contract instructor costs at Salt Creek and Heritage
Recreation Centers. This adjustment will result in an appropriation of $7,116 to
the Recreation Department's Supplies and Services budget that will be offset by
unanticipated revenue.
Public Works and Non-Departmental - Staff is requesting an appropriation of $614 in the
Non-Departmental budget to reimburse the Bicycle Facilities Fund to correct for an error
related to capital improvement project (CIP) STL363. This appropriation will be offset
by a reduction of $614 in the Public Works Department's Supplies and Services budget.
These changes result in no net fiscal impact to the General Fund.
Amendments to Other Funds
Staff is recommending budget amendments to the following other funds:
CDBG Fund and AD 2004-1 Dixon Drive Fund -the fiscal year 2013 CDBG budget
includes $222 more expenditures than revenues due to a clerical error. In order to
balance revenues and expenditures, staff recommends increasing the transfer from AD
2004-1 Dixon Drive Fund by $222 to the CDBG fund. This transfer will decrease the
fund balance in AD 2004-1 Dixon Drive Fund and increase the anticipated revenues in
the CDBG Fund.
Energy Conservation Fund -Staff is recommending a transfer from the Other Expenses
category of the Energy Conservation Fund to the Supplies and Services category in order
to align budget resources in the City`'s energy programs. In addition, staff is also
requesting a net reduction of $25,702 in this fund to align expenditures with available
grant resources.
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) Fund -Staff is requesting a net
reduction of $106,296 in this fund to align expenditures with available grant resources.
Transportation Sales Tax Fund (Fund 227) and Bicycle Facilities Fund (Fund 723) -Staff
is requesting a number of budget adjustments in order to account for funds for capital
improvement project (CIP) STL363. These funds were budgeted in the Bicycle Facilities
Fund but should have been budgeted in the Transportation Sales Tax Fund. Therefore,
the following steps are needed to correct this issue:
2-4
OCTOBER 23, 2012, Item 2
Page 5 of 6
• Transfer the remaining budget in CIP STL363 of $36,976 from the Bicycle
Facilities Fund to the Transportation Sales Tax Fund
• Reimburse the Bicycle Facilities Fund $79,224 from the Transportation Sales
Tax Fund for expenditures that occurred in error for prior years
• Reimburse the Bicycle Facilities Fund $614 for negative interest earned as a
result of this error from the General Fund
• As mentioned earlier, the reimbursement from the General Fund to the Bicycle
Facilities Fund will be offset with a reduction of $614 in the supplies & services
category of the Public Works Department budget.
These changes will result in no net fiscal impact to the General Fund. The changes in the
Bicycle Facilities Fund will result in a positive fiscal impact totaling $116,814. The
changes to the Transportation Sales Tax Fund will reduce the fund balance for this-fund
by $116,200,
Asset Seizure Fund -Earlier this year the City Council accepted grant funds for the Anti-
Money Laundering Task Force (resolution 2012-147). The grant funds full personnel
costs of a sergeant and agent during the 3-year grant period, but it does not fund vehicle
costs. Asset Seizure funds were used to purchase a vehicle for the Sergeant. However,
there were insufficient funds in the Capital expense category of the Asset Seizure fund to
fully cover this expense. Staff is requesting a transfer of $1,839 from the supplies &
services category to the capital expense category of the Asset Seizure Fund. There is no
net fiscal impact to the Asset Seizure Fund as a result of this transfer.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Except for the changes related to capital improvement project I Street Sidewalk
Improvements (STL363) -staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action
and has determined that it is not site specific and consequently, the 500-foot rule found in
California Code of Regulations section 18704.2(a)(1) is not applicable to this decision.
For the changes related to capital improvement project I Street Sidewalk Improvements
(STL363) -staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council and has found
no property holdings within 500 feet of the boundaries of the property which is the
subject of this action.
CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact resulting from accepting the Quarterly Financial Report.
Approval of the resolution amending the fiscal year 2012/13 budget will result in the
following appropriations. The resulting fiscal impacts to various funds are also listed in
the following table.

First Quarter Financial Report
Prepared by: Angelica Agzrilar, Budget and Analysis Manager, Finance Department
2-6
OVERVIEW
This financial report summarizes the City's General
Fund financial position for fiscal year 2013 through
September 30, 2012 and projecting out to June 30,
2013. The purpose of this report is to provide the City
Council, Management and the citizens of Chula Vista
an update on the City's fiscal status based on the most
recent financial information.
ECONOMIC UPDATE
The National Forecast' - In the September 2012 report,
the UCLA Anderson Forecast says that Gross
Domestic Product (GDP) growth in the U.S. will remain
tepid throughout 2012. In its third quarterly report of
2012, the Forecast expects to see 1.3% growth for the
third quarter of this year and 1.5% growth in the fourth.
In 2013, the outlook is for growth above 2%, but 2014
"could very well put the run rate of GDP growth in
excess of 3%, as economic activity is buoyed by
strength in residential and nonresidential construction
and a rebound in export growth."
The California ForecastZ - In the California report,
Senior Economist Jerry Nickelsburg examines how
California's exports and their volumes affect
employment growth in the state. After establishing that
exports are an important part of the California economy
(if exports of goods were an independent sector, it
would be one of the state's top five), Nickelsburg's
analysis reveals that "while California's exposure to the
international economy is substantial, the sensitivity of
the California economy to international risk is only
marginally above the national risk."
The current California forecast calls for the state's
unemployment rate to improve to 7.9% and be within
0.4% of the U.S. rate by the end of the forecast period.
The forecast for 2012 calls for employment growth df
1.8%, 1.6% and 2.4% in 2012, 2013 and 2014
respectively. Payrolls will grow more steadily at 1.7%,
1.5% and 2.3% for the three forecast years. However,
the state unemployment rate is projected to hover
around 10.7% through 2012 and average 9.8%
throughout 2013. In 2014, the forecast says the
unemployment rate will drop to 8.5%, just shy of a
percent higher than in the U.S.

The San Diego Forecast' -The USD Burnham-Moores
Center for Real Estate's Index of Leading Economic
Indicators for San Diego County was unchanged in
August as reported in the October 1, 2012 report. A
strong increase in building permits and a more moderate
gain in help wanted advertising offset small declines in
initial claims for unemployment insurance, local stock
prices, consumer confidence, and the outlook for the
national economy to produce the unchanged result. Due
to revisions in previously reported data, the USD Index
has now been unchanged in two of the last three
months.
The USD forecast further states that those two flat
months, plus the fact that more components were down
than up, raises some potential issues about the local
economy. Right now, those issues are minor, and it
would take more negative data in the months ahead
before a red flag is raised. For now, the outlook remains
positive. More than 30,000 wage and salary jobs were
added to the local economy in August compared to
August 2011, the third consecutive month with strong
year-over-year gains. Despite problems with its
economy and the business environment, California is
leading the nation in terms of the total number of jobs
created in the last few months. The chart below reflects
the San Diego Index of Leading Economic Indicators
from January 2007 to August 2012.

FISCAL YEAR 2013: FIRST QUARTER

GENERAL FUND SUMMARY
General Fund Reserves -The General Fund Reserve
policy was established to ensure that the City's
finances are managed in a manner which will:
1. Continue to provide for the delivery of quality
services
2. Maintain and enhance service delivery as the
community grows in accordance with the General
Plan
3. Minimize or eliminate the need to raise taxes and
fees because of temporary revenue shortfalls
4. Establish the reserves necessary to meet known
and unknown future obligations and ability to
respond to unexpected opportunities.
The final audited numbers for fiscal year 2011/12 will
not be available until later this year. The following
table reflects the unaudited General Fund reserves as
of July 1, 2012.

The Council Adopted budget for fiscal year 2012/13
included the use of $574,000 in reserves. These funds
are being used for a capital improvement project for
repairs needed at Bonita-Long Canyon ($514,000) and
to continue funding for South Bay Community Services'
Domestic Violence Response Team ($60,000).
Based on activity through the end of the frst quarter,
General Fund revenues and expenditures are tracking
with budget. The Second Quarter Financial Report will
allow for a more thorough review of current year
revenue and expenditure trends. Staff will recommend
adjustments at that time as needed based on the mid-
yearprojections.
There are variances in discretionary revenue that are
discussed in further detail in the revenue section of this
report. At this time, variances in revenues and
expenditures do not result in an adjustment to the total
projected expenditures and revenues for June 30, 2013.
However, there are some areas of concern that staff will
continue to monitor and recommend adjustments as
needed in the Second Quarter Financial report. Areas of
concern include the following:
• Unemployment insurance - unemployment
insurance claims have not returned to pre-
January 2011 levels. The budget for fiscal year
2013 budget assumed that unemployment
insurance would drop to a level consistent with
other years where major layoffs did not occur.
Unemployment insurance claims are trending
high based on the Fourth Quarter payment for
fiscal year 2012.
• Program revenues -there are some variances
in program revenues including parking citations,
negligent vehicle impound fees, code
enforcement violations, and staff time
reimbursements that are trending a little low.
Staff will continue to analyze revenue trends in
this area
Revenues
The fallowing table compares the projected revenues
included in the adopted budget and the updated revenue
projections far discretionary and departmental program
revenues. The projections indicate some variances in
discretionary revenues when compared to budget but in
total, revenues are expected to meet budget
expectations. At this time there are no major variances
in programmatic revenues to report. Variances in
discretionary include the fallowing changes:
• Loss of a $2.0 million transfer from other funds
related to A61484 that A61484 prevents loan
repayments to the General Fund from the Successor
Agency to the Redevelopment Agency in this fiscal
year.
• A one-time adjustment in property tax revenue of
$1.0 million related to the dissolution of the
redevelopment agencies.
• Other adjustments include increases in discretionary
revenue based on better than expected actuals for
fiscal year 2012 -including Sales Tax, Franchise
Fees, and Transient Occupancy Taxes.

City staff has recently received sales tax data from the
City's sales tax consultant, HdL Companies, for the
second quarter of calendar year 2012. They report that
the change in sales tax receipts between second
quarter calendar year 2012 and second quarter
calendar year 2011 increased by 7.5°/a Statewide, by
6.6°/o in San Diego County and 5.8°/o in Chula Vista.

Projection
Property Taxes -The City of Chula Vista receives
property tax revenue based upon a 1.0% levy on the
assessed value of all real property. Property tax is the
City's second largest revenue source, representing
19.8% of General Fund revenues in the fiscal year
2012/13 adopted budget.
Property tax projections reflect a net increase of
$842,900 when compared to budget. This change
reflects the receipt of a one-time true up payment related
to the dissolution of redevelopment agencies of $1.0
million offset by a projected shortfall in delinquent
property tax revenues ($160,000) and a smaller
projected shortfall in secured property tax revenues
($32, 900).
The following chart represents actual property tax
collections since fiscal year 2008/09. Fiscal year
2012/12 is projected and does not reflect actual
collections. The chart does not include the $1.0 million
true-up payment.
Sales tax projections for sales tax and sales tax in-lieu
for the current fiscal year indicate that sales tax is
tracking slightly better than budget based on activity
through the first part of the calendar year. Based on
the most recent report received from the HdL
Companies, the City is expected to realize an
additional $498,900 in sales tax when compared to
budget.

Motor Vehicle License Fee (VLF) -With the State
Budget Act of 2004, the allocation of VLF revenues to
cities and counties was substantially changed. For FY
2005/06 and beyond, the majority of VLF revenues for
each city will grow essentially in proportion to the
growth in the change in gross assessed valuation. Due
to the new formula by the State, 96% of the City's VLF
revenues fluctuate with changes in assessed values in
the City. The other 4% of VLF revenues received by
the City are based on a per capita formula.
For the 2011-12 fiscal year, the Governor signed SB89.
Provisions in S689 shifted hundreds of millions of
Vehicle License Fee revenues to fund the state law
enforcement grants. Statewide, 5689 took $130
million of city general revenue and shifted it to save
state law enforcement grant programs. Less than $100
million of these police grant funds will go back to cities.
The City of Chula Vista lost approximately $700,000
annually due to the State take away.
Projected VLF revenues are projected to meet budget
expectations. There are no variances when compared
to the budget for this revenue category.
The following chart reflects actual VLF revenue since.

Franchise Fees - Franchise fee revenues are
generated from public utility sources such as San
Diego Gas & Electric (2% on gas and 1.25% on
electricity), trash collection franchises (9.05% fee), and
cable franchises (5% fee) conducting business within
City limits. SDG&E collects the franchise fee from
Chula Vista customers and remits these revenues to
the City. Trash franchise fees and cable fees are
based on fxed rates and remitted to the City on a
monthly and quarterly receipt of the revenues
respectively.
Projections for Franchise Fee revenues have been
updated to continue the positive trend experienced in
fiscal year 2012. Updated projections indicate that these
revenues are trending to exceed budget by
approximately $445,109; an increase of approximately
5.6% when compared to budget.
The following chart reflects actual Franchise Fee
revenue since fiscal year 2008/09. Fiscal year 2012/13
is projected and does not reflect actual collections. The
chart reflects the drop off, in Franchise Fee revenues due
in part to lower natural gas prices and the loss of
revenue from the closure of the South Bay Power Plant.
