ITEM TITLE: SUBMITTED BY: COUNCIL AGENDA STATEMENT Item 5 6/24/80 Meeting Date Public Hearing (continued) - Consideration of budget for fiscal year 1980-81 including the proposed use of $331,000 of General Revenue Sharing entitlements Assistant City Manager (::/i) (4/5ths Vote: Yes No X ) - - On June 17, 1980 the City Council continued the public hearing' on the.. proposed 1980-81 budget to this date. The budget document still only reflects those modi- fications made by the City Council during budget review sessions and specific action on various items should be taken at this meeting prior to closing of the public hearing. The ' City Council directed that certain items be included in the 1980-81 budget at its meeting of 6/17/80 and those, as well as other items, are outlined below and should be finally acted on at this time. Inasmuch as no Memorandums of Understanding have been executed with any of the four bar- gaining units, it appears the City Council will be required to adopt the budget without providing funds that will be required to implement the various agreements. Action to amend the budget by supplemental appropriation some time after July 1 will be necessary. It is therefore my , RECO~1t~ENDATION: That Council conduct the pub 1 i c heari ng, recei ve appropri ate testimony,. "J approve as.recommended or modified by the City Council Items 1 through 8 below, and direct staff"to prepare the necessary adopting resolution for final action.at the 6/26/80 Council " Conference'. BOARD/CO~1MISSION RECOMr~ENDATION: N.A. DISCUSSION: As indicated earlier, the budget does not and will not include funds to meet increased employee service costs and later action will be required in this regard after the various employee bargaining units and the City Council have ratified Memorandums of Understanding. Action appropriating additional sums of money after final adoption of the budget will require a 4/5ths vote of the City Council but there appears to be no viable means by : which to avoid the situation unless a somewhat uncertain lump sum is provided in the adopted budget with authorization given to the City Manager to spread those funds among the various, activities in accordance with approved Memorandums of Understanding. Since it is still uncertain as to what action the Council may wish to take in regard to the Arthur Young study and, at this writing, we are not at all certain that we have agreements with the Police and Fire units, I believe a later supplemental appropriation should be our course of action. Notwithstanding the above comments, the following specific changes and/or modifications should be made to the document as it now stands: /01 ~7 Form A-1l3 1. Activity 700 (Insurance) - This activity figure should be reduced to $248,810 and Object Account 5233 (Public Liability & Property Damage) to $164,610. The $56,390" reducti on is recommended due to the reduced cost of 1 i abi 1 i ty insurance coverage. 2". Activity 1660 (Library-Circulation) - The total activity should be reduced to $170,760 and Object Account 5568 (Other Equipment) should be reduced from $10,650 to -0-. This reduction reflects Council's approval at their June 10, 1980 meeting authorizing the purchase of certain computer equipment from State Library Act carryover funds. continued (Rev. 11 /79) >>" EXHIBITS Agreement____ Resolution____ Ordinance____ Plat____ Notification List , ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENT: Attached Other Submitted on " c , , ,Ui'^,~ ' U "L, co c , , ", c' -'.'

This figure reflects actual contract awards and other costs associated with all the Open Space Districts anticipated for the Fiscal Year 1980-81.

The City Manager's Preliminary Budget included Gas Tax Project GT-122, which provi,ded ,$50,000 to cover the cos't of engineering to reconstruct "L" Street and install a sianal at rqel rose and "L". The Council's most recent. action June'17, 1980 wa~ to substitute the cost of engineering and installation of a traffi.c si,9nal at "L" Street and ~'onserate. . The Traffic Engineer hilS estimated these costs at $55,000; $ 5,000 for engineerin(j deslgn and 1>50,000 for construction of the signals. In accordance with this action, the C.I.P. budget should be modified to provide for engineering and construction costs for a signal at "L" Street and ~lonserate. 5. The preliminary budget includes the sum of $15,000 toward the funding of the visitor information centers. The City Council at its June 17, 1980 Council Conference allocated the sum of $17,500 for the purpose of meeting the operating expenses of the 1-5 center. In view of this action; Activity 0130 (Community Promotions) should be increased from ~75,220 to $77,720 and Object Account Number 5451 (Contributions - Other Ag~ncies) should be increased by $2,500 to $75,370. I 6. Activity 1538 (Senior Information & Referral Center) should be increased from $36,220 to $37,990, and Object Account 5271 (Rentals & Leases) should be increased from -0- to $1 ,77~ to reflect an additional six months rent in the leased facilities. On June 17, 1980, the City Council formed a lighting and landscaping maintenance district in the Town Centre, awarded a contract for the maintenance of the district, and adopted a budget totaling $11,850. The total amount necessary is $12,450, an increase of $600 representing street lighting energy costs charoeable to the district. Object Account Number 5251 (Utilities) should be $800: Object Account Number 5298 (Other Contractual Services) $10,500, Object Account Number 5351 (Landscape Supplies) $1,050), and Object Account Number 5422 (Refunds) $100. 7. .'0\.;'1 continued "'- ,.

Project TS-03 (Traffic signal installation at "E" Street and vJoodlawn) - This signal install~tion was tentatively approved in the Capital Improvement Program but subsequent to that action was referred to the Safety'Commission for report and recommendation. They met on June 11 and voted 4-1 (with Commissioner Knight opposed) to recommend that the signal be installed at the Woodlawn intersection rather than Jefferson. FISCAL IMPACT: N.A. ~~74 ~A~/FO by the Ci': ',' (\y.lnciI of CI1U/8 VistOl, Califol'nia Dated t~P:/h , . {ols1 COUNCIL AGENDA STATEMENT Item 9 ITEM TITLE: Meeting Date 6-17-80 Public hearing - Consideration of budget for fiscal year 1980-81 including the proposed use of $331,000 of General Revenue Sharing entitlements Assistant City Manager CiD (4/5ths Vote: Yes___ No~) SUBMITTED BY: The City Council has held a series of budget sessions and has taken tentative action on the Preliminary 1980-81 Budget. Those modifications indicated have been tabulated and, as required under the City Charter, the revised Tentative Budget has been available for public review and inspection. Sec. 1003 of the City Charter requires that the City Council hold a public hearing on the proposed budget and adopt a budget on or before June 30 of each fiscal year. In addition to Charter requirements, the Federal Revenue Sharing Act requires that a simultaneous hearing be held on the expenditure of Federal Revenue Sharing funds as well. The hearing, therefore, not only meets the requirements of the City Charter, but also the Federal Revenue Sharing Act. The budget document as it now stands reflects only those modifications made by the City Council during the previously mentioned Council budget sessions. A number of matters should be resolved prior to final adoption of the budget and it does not appear as though some of those matters can be resolved prior to this meeting. It is, therefore, my RECOMMENDATION: 1. That Council open the public hearing; receive testimony as appropriate and act on modifications that are appropriate and ready at this time. 2. Continue the public hearing to the regular meeting of June 24, 1980. DISCUSSION The Preliminary Budget does not include sufficient funds to meet increased employee service costs and information on additional monies needed for this purpose will not be available until final agreement has been reached with the four bargaining units. At this writing, very tentative agreements have been. reached with all units except the Police Officers Association. In addition to the need to adjust budget figures to meet these costs, favorable action by the City Council on the Arthur Young study would also require additional funds. It should also be noted that the tentative agreement reached with the Chula Vista Employees Association is subject to approval of the . recommendations on salaries and classifications as contained in the Arthur Young report. The following specific changes can be made to the budget as it now stands: 1. Activity 700 - INSURANCE: reduce figure to $248,810 and alter Object Account 5233 to $164,610. The reducion in this activity by $56,390 is recommended due to City Council recent action in accepting liability coverage at a cost well under the original budget estimate. ~~ ~ -).t{-fO by the City Council of Chula Vista, California ;01 V;7 Dated t ~/1- fa Form A-113 (Rev. 11/79) Item 9 Meeting Date 6-l7~80 Page 2 2.

The City Manager's preliminary budget, when originally submitted, included Gas Tax Project GT-122 which provided $50,000 to cover the cost of engineering required to reconstruct L Street and install a signal at Melrose and L. The $50,000 was included in the proposed 80-81 budget with actual reconstruction and signal in- stallation contemplated in the 81-82 fiscal year CIP budget; During budget'de- liberations, it was tentatively determined that engineering funds for this project would be moved back for consideration in the 81-82 fiscal year, with the possi- bility of construction taking place in 82-83. At the regular meeting of the City Council on May 27, 1980, when a petition re- questing traffic signals on L Street at Helix, Melrose and/or Monserate was con- sidered, it was moved, seconded and carried that the matter of L Street recon- struction and signal1ization at Melrose be reconsidered before the 80-81 fiscal year budget is approved. Staff was requested to indicate if there is enough evidence to begin engineering work in this fiscal year. The City Council should determine whether engineering and/or engineering and re- construction monies should be included in the 1980-81 fiscal year. A staff re- port on this subject is included as a later item on this agenda. That report reaffirms staff's original recommendation that engineering funds be provided in the 80-81 budget for this project and the reconstruction of the street and signal installation contemplated in the 81-82 fiscal year. 5. The City Council will have held a Council Conference to discuss the City's role in continuin9 f.unding of the Visitor Information Centers prior to consideration of the budget. The City Council's latest action on this matter was to include the sum of $15,000 in the Preliminary Budget but has requested the City Manager to analyze the Chamber proposal, ,the Copley study, the potential of a private operator, and make a recommendation thereon. His analysis and recommendation will have been considered prior to the public hearing on the budget and if a decision can be, reached, this matter could be resolved. In as much as the recommendation is/to continue the public hearing on the budget to June 24, final decision could be deferred until that date. ! olcj1 ERA:ac .____. ..,,1": COUNCIL CONFERENCE AGENDA STATEMENT Item ITEM TITLE: Meeting Date 6/26/80 Resolutionll~j1- Approving Adoption of the Final Budget for tne Fiscal year July 1, 1980 thru June 30, 1981 SUBMITTED BY: City Manager ~ (4/5ths Vote: Yes~ No___) The City Council closed the hearing on the 1980-81 budget at their regular meeting of June 24, 1980. Prior to closing the hearing, the Council directed modifications to the budget as outlined in the agenda statement presented at that meeting. Those changes and the others have been made as directed. It is therefore my RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt the resolution. BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: N.A. DISCUSSION: The changes that have been incorporated include the sum of $55,000 in the Capital Improve- ment Budget towards some solution to the problem on "L" Street at Melrose or at Monserate. Funds included in the budget could be used for engineering costs and construction of a signal at Monserate, or for engineering costs associated with the reconstruction of "L" Street and construction of a signal at Melrose. Funds would have to be appropriated if the Council decides to proceed at some later date with the actual reconstruction of "L" Street and a signal at Melrose. As directed by the City Council, funds have been included in the appropriating resolution to meet estimated increased costs to implement the Arthur Young study and salaries necessary as a result of ultimate ratification of the various Memorandums of Understanding that are in process. The amount of money required and included in the budget is $1,550,000. The budget also includes an additional $2,000 to fund the operating costs of the 1-805 visitor center for one month. With this appropriation, the Chamber of Commerce contract will include funds equal to $19,500 for the 1980-81 fiscal year. FISCAL IMPACT: The adjustments made by the City Council during all of its budget deliberations and public hearing result in a projected June 30, 1981 General Fund balance of $1,329,345 as opposed to the Preliminary Budget projected total of $2,905,325. The decrease in the projected General Fund balance primarily reflects the $1,550,000 appropriated for salary adjustments, but also includes those other adjustments made during the course of budget deliberations.
