At the FY 2006 -2007 Strategic Planning Session in July 2006, City Council provided general direction to staff to transfer any excess General Fund revenues over expenditures (surplus) Into the Economic Uncertainty Fund Before proceeding with the FY 2006 -2007 First Quarter financial review, please take note that the final FY 2005 -2006 General Fund surplus which has been transferred into the Economic Uncertainty Fund is $6 895 million This is attributable to FY 2005 -2006 salary, benefit, and operational savings, net of reserves carried forward from the previous fiscal year, coming in $2 1 million under budget combined with revenues coming in $4 8 million above budget Revenue Increases include Sales Tax ($2 1 million), Gas Utility User's Tax ($14 million), Planning Fees and Building Permits ($900,000), Electric Utility User's Tax ($700,000), Transient Occupancy Tax ($700,000), Interest on Investments ($600,000), Miscellaneous Revenue ($345,000), Parking Fines ($112,000), and Co generated Electric Utility User's Tax ($400,000) These revenue Increases were offset by decreases in revenues consisting of Franchise fees ($323,000), Transfer from Traffic Mitigation fees ($450,000), Property tax and VLF ($650,000), and Business License Tax ($1 05 million) In summary, the three pieces that make up the FY 2005 -2006 $6 895 million General Fund surplus consist of $2 1 million in FY 2005 -2006 expenditure savings, $7 26 million in revenues that came In over budget and $2 47 million In revenues that came in under budget Staff will present recommendations on allocating this surplus at the end of this report EXPECTED FY 2006 -2007 REVENUES The following is an analysis of General Fund revenues by the ten major categories A. Property Taxes This category is estimated to come In below budget at this time The City received a negative adjustment to Unsecured Property tax for one major taxpayer due to this revenue being incorrectly reported to El Segundo instead of the City of Los Angeles This has permanently shifted approximately $63,200 annually to the City of Los Angeles and the Unsecured Property Tax category will come in under budget as a result 041 BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION (CONTINUED) B. Other Taxes (Includes Sales, Utility User's, Transient Occupancy and Other Taxes This category is estimated to come in below budget overall mainly attributable to a decrease in Gas Utility User's Taxes In February 2007, the NRG power plant facility was not awarded a medium term agreement with Southern California Edison to provide power on an ongoing basis The next opportunity for the power plant to enter into a long term contract will not be determined until at least January 2008 Due to the uncertainty of the operational status of the local power plant, the FY 2006 -2007 Gas Utility User's tax estimate is significantly below original budget The original budget for this source is $2 0 million and the estimated actual at this time is just $825,000 Sales tax for the first quarter 2006 -2007 was down just over 8 4% or $221,400 from the same quarter in the previous fiscal year The reduction was attributable to a decline in public utilities and light industrial purchases as well as a partial relocation of a health and medical sales office Sales tax for the first quarter of the Plaza El Segundo project will be reflected in sales tax receipts beginning in the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2006 -2007 or the period of January through March 2007 Staff and the City's sales tax consultant are projecting this revenue source to be on target by the end of this fiscal year Franchise taxes are estimated to come in ahead of target with budget attributable to a projected increase in electric franchise fees of $343,150 or 35% higher in calendar year 2006 compared to 2005 Transient Occupancy taxes received for the first quarter of FY 2006 -2007 compared to the same period in FY 2005 -2006 are up $113,100 or 13 7% Staff has spoken to several of the hotels, and the increased revenue is attributable to continued increase in room rates Co generated Electric Utility User's tax is currently running below budget for the first quarter and staff is currently estimating this revenue source to come in below budget for the fiscal year Staff is working with Chevron to monitor this revenue source and will report any change in status which may bring this revenue source closer to budget by the end of this fiscal year Also included in this category are all other utility user's taxes combined, which are on target with budget C. Business License Fees This category is ahead of the targeted budget amount The top 10 taxpayers generated $5,825,100 in 2006, which is $906,700 or 18 4% higher than 2006 This is directly attributable to a reduction of $927,000 in the sales tax credit taken in 2006 The top 2 business license taxpayers had sales tax credits which were $845,800 higher in 2005 Overall Business License revenue through February 28, 2007 is $8,597,950 or just over (14 BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION (CONTINUED) 100 0% of budget D. Other License and Permits This category is currently well ahead of budget The most significant part of this category is building and other permits, and the City has received 40 4% of the budget or $306,250 with 25 0% of the fiscal year complete While the number of permits is higher, the main factor that has had an impact on the increase in revenues is the much higher valuation of the projects attributable to the larger and more complex projects underway this year E. Interest and Rentals This category is currently ahead of the targeted budget amount Interest rates have steadily risen as a result of the Federal Reserve raising the federal funds rate from 3 50% in August 2005 to 5 25% in June 2006 This has a positive impact on interest income The average rate of the portfolio as of December 2006 is just over 4 03% compared to an average rate of 3 43% in December 2005 At the FY 2006 -2007 Strategic Planning Session, the City Council directed the Investment Advisory Committee to analyze the future impact of reporting Other than Pension Obligations Benefits (OPEB) resulting from the Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB) 45 accounting requirement which must be implemented in FY 2008- 2009 The committee will continue to study this requirement and report a variety of potential funding alternatives to the City Council at the FY 2007 -2008 Strategic Planning Session in July 2007 F. Intergovernmental Revenues This category includes Vehicle License Fees, Proposition 42 funds and State grants and is on target with budget G. Charges for Services This category is well ahead of target with budget Zoning and Planning fees, Plan Check fees, Plan retention fee, Energy Plan Check fees, and Planning Service Fees have a combined budget of $1,179,850 and the City has received $771,000 or 65 3% combined through December 31, 2006 Other sources of revenue within this category are either ahead or on target with budget Two other General Fund categories including Other Revenue and Transfers In are expected to be on target with budget "Other Revenue" includes State mandated cost reimbursements, administrative charges to other funds, miscellaneous revenue, and debt service payments received from Park Vista The 'Transfers In" category includes interfund transfers from all other funds to the General Fund i, BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION (CONTINUED) Total Estimated Revenues With 25% of the fiscal year complete, overall General Fund revenues for FY 2006 -2007 are estimated to come in approximately $300,000 below the targeted budget amount This consists of anticipated declines of $1 175 million in Gas Utility User's Taxes, Property Taxes of $164,000, Telephone Utility User's Tax of $120,000, and Co generated Electric Utility User's Tax $475,000, offset by increases in Franchise fees of $150,000, Transient Occupancy Taxes of $200,000, Electric Utility User's Tax $155,000, Business License Tax $570,000, Building Permits $200,000, Interest Income $200,000, and Plan Check Fees $310,000 No adjustments are recommended at this time Revenues in all other funds appear to be on target with budget Since many of the revenues and expenditures are difficult to anticipate only three months into the fiscal year, staff will prepare another in -depth review of revenues and expenditures at the third quarter GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES The following is an analysis of General fund expenditures by major categories A. Elected Officials and Administrative Support Services This category, which consists of the City Council, City Clerk, City Treasurer, City Manager's office, and Administrative Services, is currently on target with budget B. Non Department Non Department expenditures are currently on target with budget C. Public Safety Within the Fire Suppression division, the Fair Labor Standards Act overtime expenditures are $103,300 or 39 7% of budget and the leave replacement is $200,350 or 39 4% of budget This is mainly attributable to several vacancies due to retirements These vacancies are in the process of being filled and, barring any additional unforeseen retirements, injuries, or extended leaves of absence, staff anticipates these accounts to track closer to budget by the end of the fiscal year Staff will continue to monitor these accounts closely D.
