FISCAL IMP
;ity Council took action on Thursday, July 8th, to hold a special session of
~uncil to consider the proposed budget and also contemplate a closed session
• establishing guidelines for employee negotiations, I believe the recommendation
the Public Hearing to the July 17th meeting is appropriate. Staff will be
;that meeting to review with Council the latest fiscal data available including
;ion involving a 3-year revenue/expenditure plan or projection, as requested by
>uncil. Following the fiscal update as it impacts the proposed 1982-83 budget
~sentation of the 3-year plan, the City Council can go into closed session to
negotiation strategy and, subsequent to those discussions, determine what action
~e Council desires to take on the proposed budget. There is no urgent reason
;y Council to adopt the budget at this meeting, although we will begin to ex-
mited problems in some departments in meeting expenditure requirements due to
nth appropriations that the Council authorized for all departments. If a final
got adopted, these minor difficulties can be overcome by additional limited
ions for those departments that are experiencing difficulties.
Not applicable at this time.

WHY ~ RESERVE?
1. ~o provide for adequate cash flow during first six (6) months of fiscal year.
2. ~o provide for unanticipated appropriation during fiscal year (non-emergency).
3. to provide for emergencies.
Natural disasters (floods, earthquakes, etc.)
Replacement of essential equipment
4. ~o provide a cushion for unanticipated revenue drop. ,
TYPE OF RESERVE
1. eserve should be tied to a % of annual operating budget.
2. deserve should increase or decrease with annual operating budget.
3. deserve should be maintained in General Fund.
HOW fNUCH RESERVE?
A alysis of past year cash flow requirements indicates about 2 million
n eded for this purpose.
Wile we would need about 2 million for cash flow purposes other funds
( evenue sharing, liability trust and worker's compensation trust funds)
c uld be used to meet emergency type needs.
.~
T provide the minimum cost flow reserve of 2 million based on the
p oposed 1982-83 operating budget of $16,528,600 (without salary adjustments)
w uld require a percentage factor of slightly more than 12%.
( 16,528,600 x 12% _ $1,983,432)
W believe a percentage factor of at least 12% of the annual operating
b dgeted appropriations is the minimum requirement. Increasing this
p rcentage to 15% would provide additional reserves in the event
e ergencies occur during the early months of a fiscal year when cash
f ow problems exist.

The Honorable Mayor and City Council

THREE-YEAR FINANCIAL PLAN
July 16, 1982
Durin previous budget discussions, the City Council requested that a 3-Year
Budge Plan be developed prior to their final consideration of the FY 1982-83
propo ed budget. This memo provides background information on the 3-Year
Fina ial Plan that will be discussed at the July 17, 1982 Council budget
meeting. The purposes of this plan are:
To provide a short-term future view that can be used to gauge the
ramifications of our current and future fiscal situation;
- To provide a means to judge which corrective actions are most
appropriate to meet the immediate and future needs of the City;
- To provide a basis to build consistent historical data by fiscal year
to permit trend analysis in future years;
- To aid budgetary decision-making, including mid-year revisions prior
to the annual budget process;
- To provide a means of addressing budgeted shortfalls in a planned
manner in advance of the fiscal year rather than assuming a year-end
closure of any budgeted gap.
Thus the 3-Year Plan should be helpful not only in making the decisions
nece sary prior to adopting a final budget, but also in interpreting and
acti g upon monitored actual revenues and expenditures during the fiscal year.
This plan is composed of two sections: (A) a 3-Year Forecast of the City's
expe ditures and revenues, based on a projection of current financial
poli ies and the current level of municipal service; and (B) a listing of
Budg tary Alternatives or corrective actions that could be taken to improve
the City's financial position. Each section is discussed separately below.
A. ~-YEAR FORECAST
A h pothetical forecast of the City's General Operating Funds for fiscal years
198 -83, 1983-84, and 1984-85 is summarized in Table 3. It should be
emp asized that a forecast serves to project existing conditions into the
fut re, thereby identifying potential problems to be corrected through budget
pro esses.itAis not unusualhfor project dohypotheticalsbudget deficitsnnot~to

also important to emphasize that developing a forecast of this type
res making a number of assumptions which, if changed, could significantly
y the summary data shown in Table 3. As indicated above, this forecast
Mended to provide a base-line projection, assuming a continuation of
nt policies and service ]evels, to provide a financial context within
to consider alternative budget actions such as revenue increases or
diture reductions. Thus, one of the major assumptions in the forecast is
the City will maintain a constant services budget with essentially no net
es in the number of personnel. Another major assumption in the
diture forecast involves the level of inflation factors, which were
zed to adjust employee service and supplies and services, as will be
ned in more detail later.
Beta se of current uncertainties regarding the general economy, housing
cons ruction, and revenue from the State and other agencies, forecasting
reve ues is more imprecise than forecasting expenditures. Because of these
unce tainties, three revenue estimates have been prepared for each of the
fist 1 years considered in the forecast: a low estimate, a best estimate, and
a hi h estimate. All of these estimates, however, assume no changes in the
City s current policies. Other important assumptions and definitions are
prov ded below.

of the revenue forecasts assume that all Federal Revenue Sharing and

rations of Revenue Sharing Funds for CIP projects are reflected as
tive adjustments to the Reserve. Portions of Sewer Service and Gas Tax
s are also included in the General Operating Fund, but the portion of
e funds used in support of the General Fund is assumed to remain
ntially the same as is currently reflected in the proposed FY 1982-83
et. Alternative allocations of Sewer Service and Gas Tax Funds between
General Operating Fund and CIP projects are discussed in the Budgetary
rnatives section of this memo. It should also be noted that potential
rve adjustments, such as transferring funds from the Public Liability
t Fund to the General Fund, are not considered potential revenues in this
cast, but such alternatives are addressed in the Budgetary Alternatives
ion.
revenue estimates assume no change in the current Utility Users Tax rate,
do they assume any changes other than small inflation adjustments in the
Schedule for fees and charges. The revenue forecast is summarized in
e 1. The major variables in the Low, Best, and High revenue estimates are
fined below.
Low Estimate--The low estimates shown in the revenue forecast reflect very
conservative estimates of revenue. They assume a slight further downturn
in the economy with virtually no residential construction. They assume
that Federal Revenue Sharing will be reduced 50 percent in FY 1983-84 and
~~96,

current level. In terms of State subventions, the
the loss of all Motor Vehicle License payments
and the loss of all Cigarette Taxes and Business
(Unsecured) in FY 1984-85.
Be t Estimate--The best estimates of revenue shown in the forecast reflect
same ~gures for FY 1982-83 as are currently being used in the formal
bu get. The best estimates for FY 1983-84 and 1984-85 reflect an
ex ension of the 1982-83 estimates into the future. They assume a slight
i rovement in the economy and essentially a continuation of the current
level of subventions from the State and Federal governments.
Hi h Estimate--The high estimates of revenue included in the forecast
r ec amore liberal approach to estimating revenue. The high estimates
a sume a significant upturn in the general economy, including housing
c nstruction, by the end of FY 1983-84. They also assume a small increase
i the level of Federal Revenue Sharing.
Expenditure Forecast Methodology
The p rpose of the Expenditure Forecast is to ascertain a baseline level of
costs in order to determine the future impact on forecasted revenues and to
serve as a point of reference after budgetary alternatives are applied. The
expen iture forecast reflects an extension of the FY 1982-83 budget as it now
stand .
The inflation factor used in most of the projections in the expenditure
forec st is based on the GNP Implicit Price Deflator for State and Local
Gover ment Purchases. This index is generally considered more applicable than
the PI for government expenditures. The index is national rather than
regio al in scope, however, so it may be somewhat understated for San Diego.
The n tional projections for this index reflect an average annual increase of
7.1 p rcent in FY 1983-84 and 1984-85.
As in icated previously, a single expenditure forecast was prepared for each
of th three years of the forecast period. These forecasts are based on the
assum tion that there will be few changes in service levels or authorized
perso nel. A slight adjustment to the regular FY 1983-84 and 1984-85
expen iture forecasts was developed, however, to correspond to the High
Estim tes of Revenue. These adjustments involved staffing increases that
would be required to process land development applications, since the High
Reven a Estimates assume a significant upturn in the economy and housing
contt uction. These staffing adjustments would therefore be required to
obtai the High Revenue Estimate.
Since the expenditure forecast was developed in a manner which isolated
Emplo ee Services, Supplies and Services, Capital Outlay, and Expenditure
Savin s separately, each of these categories is discussed below. (See Table
2.)

lovee Services
he 7.1 percent increase rate was applied to Employee Services for each of
he three years. This percent increase is based on a three-year
orecasted average of the national GNP Implicit Price Deflator for State
nd Local Government Purchases and is being used for projective purposes
nly. The Mayor and Council's salaries were increased by the
tatute-regulated 5 percent. In general, no new employees were added
xcept in those cases where outside revenues would offset the .expense of
he new positions.
alies and Services
his expenditure category was increased generally by 7.1 percent in FY
983-84 and FY 1984-85. An inflation factor had previously been applied
o the FY 1982-83 figures during the budget formation.
everal accounts were treated separately in applying future inflation
actors due to their special nature in the marketplace:- Utilities, Fuel,
nd Vehicle Maintenance. These increases were somewhat higher than the
.1 percent used for general supplies and services and were based on
ndicators provided by or extrapolated from SOG&E published resource
aterial. Special adjustments were also made to reflect the reduced level
f energy consumption in FY 1983-84 and 1984-85 as a result of
nergy-saving CIP projects.
n general, no new supplies and services were added beyond what exists in
he FY 1982-83 proposed budget. Insurance premium coverage was held
onstant for the three-year period; while there was no apparent case for
ontinuing the decreasing trend in premium costs experienced in 1981-82,
ikewise there were no indicators to substantiate an increase.
everal items which would normally be considered under capital outlay,
uch as a Fire Pumper and a Copier Machine, have been partially reflected
n Supplies and Services as lease-purchases in order to spread major costs
ver several years.
ital Outl
;apital outlay expenditures for FY 1983-84 and 1984-85 were approached
~rom a zero base. Items anticipated by departments as needed in the
normal course of business, either new or replacement items, were added to
ietermine each annual total. This differs from the Employee Services and
iupplies and Services Accounts where a pre-existing base was assumed. The
identified capital outlay items have been projected on a basis of being
unavoidable, not just "nice-to-have."
~~~
- 5 -
~enditure Savings
he total of the forecasted amounts for Employee Services, Supplies and
ervices, and Capital Outlay was used as the Budgeted Expenditures figure
hown in Table 2. An offsetting category of Expenditure Savings is also
hown in the Table to take into account the savings that the City has
istorically realized when actual expenditures are compared to
ppropriations. A relatively conservative estimate of 3 percent of
udgeted Expenditures was used to develop the Expenditure Savings. It
hould be noted, however, that as budgets become tighter such savings
ecome more difficult to achieve.
Forecasted Reserves
Rese ves, by definition, are those monies not immediately needed for a
spec fic fiscal year to offset proposed expenditures. These funds are set
asid for future and/or unanticipated expenditures throughout the year.
Hist rically, the City's reserve fund has f requently been augmented by a
comb nation of additional income, one-time income, and expenditure savings
whic were unanticipated prior to the budget adoption.
Tabl 3 provides a comparison for General Operating Funds of forecasted
reve ue to expenditures and the resulting impact to the reserve balance. The
vari tions in the level of the reserve are based on revenues varying within a
give fiscal year from low to best to high and are not due to any additional
reve ue-generating or cost-cutting actions. The ending reserve balances are
view d as increasing or decreasing from the existing 1982-83 Beginning Reserve
Bala ce of $6,199,000. Using the Best Estimates of revenue, for example, the
$6,1 9,000 reserve balance is forecasted to decrease to a FY 1984-85 Ending
Rese ve Balance of $3,276,000, assuming no new corrective actions are taken to
offs t the revenue shortfalls.
A li itation of the presentation of data in Table 3 should be noted. The
assu ption of low, best, or high revenue estimates are held constant year to
year For example, the Low Revenue estimate for FY 1983-84 assumes that
reve ues had also been low in FY 1982-83. A similar situation exists with the
Best and High Estimates. Due to a lack of space, the Table does not address
the otential of, for example, one year's revenue being at a Best Level and in
subs quent years being at a Low or High Level. This can have an impact on the
resu ting Ending Reserve Balance for each year and each category. However,
rega Bless of the ability to vary the categories year to year, the extremes of
the Y 1984-85 Ending Reserve Balance range from a hypothetical ($6,010,000)
to $ ,205,000.
B. UDGETARY ALTERNATIVES
As d monstrated in Table 3, new methods of generating increased revenues and
redu ing expenditures will be required if the City's current sources of
reve ue continue to increase at a limited rate or in fact decline. Several
alte natives have been developed in terms of .added revenue, new revenue,

aced transfers to the General Operating Fund, use of the Reserve Balance,
-educed expenditures. Since a primary purpose of the three-year plan
t is to provide alternatives to the City Council in addressing the
83 revenue shortfall and identifying implications of such corrective
ns in future years, the following discussion of corrective action
natives is approached on the basis of immediate alternatives for Fiscal
1982-83, other alternatives to be applied in the future, and the
ability of reserves and one-time revenues. All alternatives are
nted as mutually exclusive, allowing an optimum flexibility in selecting
alternatives the Council might like to adopt and to establish their
t. (See Table 4.)
-83 Immediate Alternatives
Alte natives which are considered immediate are those which would take
rela ively little time to implement, many of which should be occurring for
re as ns of good management practices in addition to reducing the budgetary gap.
ew Fees -- The activities of processing annexation applications,
evi- e g landscape plans, reviewing building plans for fire safety, and
eserving books for Library patrons are examples of City functions which
eretofore have never been viewed on a fee basis. Based on a full-cost or
codified recovery assessment of these activities, the City could realize
s much as $90,000 in new revenues. These new revenues would not only
enefit the 1982-83 revenue picture, but also would continue in future
ears. However, factors which need to be considered are elasticity of
errand and the serving of the public good.
eimbursement of the General Operatin Fund -- Activities which are not
u gee in a enera Aerating Fun suc as the Redevlopment Agency and
he Golf Course do, from time-to-time, draw on services which originate in
he General Operating Fund. Based on a full-cost or modified recovery
ssessment of those services, it is estimated that the Redevelopment
gency and the Golf Course could reimburse the General Operating Fund an
dditional $50,000 each for the services they received from Public Works
Aerations, Finance, etc. These additionial revenues would continue in
uture years based on .the level of service that each received from General
Aerating Fund activities.
Increased Fees -- Based on a full cost or modified recovery assessment of
numerous evelopment fees and recreation program fees, it has been
determined that substantial increases in revenue could be realized by not
only charging for the direct salaries to provide the service but also for
at least part of the administrative overhead and supplies costs that are
incurred but have never been recognized in existing fees. The amount that
could be realized through a more complete recovery of fees would fall in
the range of $175,000 to $325,000 in Fiscal Year 1982-83 and would
continue in future years. Amore extensive breakdown of which fees would
be impacted, and to what extent, will be addressed separately. As in the
case of new fees, factors such as the elasticity of demand and the need to
serve the public good should also be, recognized in addressing the issue of
increased fees.
/G'~/c

~urther Base Budget Reductions -- The proposed FY 1982-83 Operating Budget
:ontains signs scan re uc ions in the area of Employee Services. A
>econdary level of additional cuts has been identified for Council's
:onsideration in the event that this alternative is viewed as an immediate
-riority. However, even if this alternative is not utilized, all on-going
expenditures will be scrutinized throughout the year in a continuing
effort to achieve cost savings.
Other Alternatives
dditional Reimbursement to the General Fund -- Other areas which could be
appe or urt er reim ursement to the General Operating Fund include
hose activities associated with the performance of its Capital
mprovement Program and the maintenance of sewer facilities. Realizing
hat additional transfer of funds from the CIP area will reduce the amount
f revenue available to address CIP issues, this alternative may need
loser scrutiny in terms of its impact in future years.
he initial estimate of additional revenues amounts to $100,000 in CIP
unds and $154,000 from Sewer Service Funds. It is anticipated that the
ncreased transfer from Sewer Service Funds to the General Operating Fund
gay require a small tax increase for sewer service.
urther Full-Cost or Modified Recovery of Service Fees - Should a more
x ensive approac to a comp ete recovery o ees or services provided to
he public be necessary, a more extensive list of fees which could be
ncreased has been established. It should be noted, however, that the
ramework to recommend the implementation of these fees will take a
Moderate level of staff preparation time in order to implement. The
mount that could potentially be recovered falls into a range of $165,000
o $300,000.
,dditional Transfers of Gas Tax Funds - Currently, the City collects
pproxima e y in Gas Tax Funs annually. Those funds are split
pith approximately 50 percent going to the maintenance of existing
~oadways by City forces and 50 percent going to Capital Improvement
rojects. Since it is known that more services which originate in the
general Operating Fund to maintain streets are occurring than the amount
e are collecting in gas tax, additional revenues could be transferred
rom Gas Tax Funds into the General Operating Fund. The net effect would
~e to reduce the available amount for Capital Improvement Projects, which
s of concern because of the already limited revenues available for this
ype of construction. If the election item of the 2¢ tax/gallon passes,
his alternative would become more viable.
itility Users Tax Rate Increase - The current Utility Tax rate is
established at 5 percent. As a means of increased revenue, the Council
gas the option to allow that tax to float to 6 percent, realizing an
additional $270,000 in new revenues.

Additional Alternatives - Other areas which could be explored as future
a erna eves inc u e treet Lighting Maintenance Districts, Landscape
Maintenance Districts, Public Safety tax overrides, the development of a
vacant parcel of land adjacent to the Golf Course, and the feasibility of
an early retirement program for City employees. These alternatives have
not been examined in detail, and some will require a year's leadtime to
develop as viable alternatives.
Reserves and One-Time Revenues
-~
Res rues and one-time revenues differ from the prior discussions in that these
funs should not be viewed as on-going sources of revenue but rather as
sho t-term solutions. Currently, the General Operating Fund Reserve Balance
is at a level of $6,199,000 (36 percent of the General Operating
Exp nditures), some of which could be used to help offset revenue shortfalls.
A r duction of the Public Liability Trust Fund is viewed as a one-time revenue
in hat the City's new reduced retention level reduces the need for such an
ext nsive trust fund. The amount which could be realized from this one-time
sou ce is $500,000.
