About the Cover
The FY 2017-18 cover features four photographs capturing various staff activities and
projects occurring within the City over the past year.
Top Left: Employees from the Public Works Department install a new bike lane sign within
the City. Over the past several years, the City has increased the number of bike lanes
and signage in response to City Council Goals. In FY 2016-17, the City was awarded $1.2
million to develop a bike share program and for the installation of an additional 20 miles
of bike lanes.
Top Middle: Bakersfield Fire Department firefighters engage a heavily involved
residential structure fire in central Bakersfield. The Bakersfield Fire Department staff totals
240 sworn, support, and reserve personnel operating from 14 Fire Stations located
throughout the City. The Bakersfield Fire Department responds to over 30,000 calls for
service each year and maintains an Insurance Services Office (ISO) Class 2 rating,
residing in the top 1.5 percent of Fire Departments nationwide.

July 1, 2017
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: ALAN TANDY, CITY MANAGER AT
SUBJECT: FISCAL YEAR 2017-18 ADOPTED BUDGET
I am pleased to submit to you the FY 2017-18 Adopted Budget.
The FY 2017-18 Adopted Budget has been developed under very evolving
economic and legislative circumstances at the local, state and federal level. As
outlined further in this document, these circumstances may result in the need to
modify this budget as the fiscal year progresses. Notwithstanding these evolving
circumstances, the adopted budget continues to reflect a focus on
implementation of the City Council goals and priorities.
At the local level, attention continues to be focused on the health of the oil
industry. Over the past twelve months, there have been small, incremental signs
that the industry is stabilizing at a rate that allows producers to begin to increase
production. This is good news, as local oil production and exploration drives sales
of equipment within the City, which translates to increased sales tax revenue.
Additionally, as production and exploration increases, jobs are added and
discretionary spending on items such as vehicles occurs. Sales tax receipts from
the 4th quarter of 2016 and 1st quarter of 2017 were positive, as compared to the
two prior quarters, which came in at -10 percent. Although the recent indicators
seem to suggest there may be some stability in the local economy, we remain
cautious, as it remains to be seen if this is the start of a trend or if this current uptick
is temporary. More information on the trends within the local oil industry are
summarized below. Other local economic indicators, such as new single-family
residential permits continue to show stability year-over-year, which is reflective of
the request to add a Solid Waste position to sustain acceptable levels of refuse
collection services for these new housing developments.
v
Over the past several months, activities at the state level have resulted in two
significant actions that will continue to affect the City’s budget for the
foreseeable future. In late 2016, the California Public Employees’ Retirement
System (CalPERS) Board lowered expectations of profits earned on its investment
portfolio in response to consecutive years of poor investment returns. This, in turn,
placed its members, including the City, in in the position of making up the
difference. In FY 2017-18, the City is projecting a $2.4 million increase in City-paid
CalPERS costs across all employee plans. The year-over-year increase is estimated
to jump to $6.5 million in FY 2018-19. These increases will have a substantial impact
on the General Fund and will have a contradictory affect to any new revenue
growth that may be experienced locally. Until CalPERS can align its investment
projections with reality, there will be concerns that these costs will continue to rise.
Staff continuously monitors CalPERS activities in order to revise budgetary
projections as needed.
More recently, the state legislature passed a new transportation funding package
that will allocate an average of $8 million to the City over a 10-year period. These
funds are exclusively earmarked for local street rehabilitation work. The new
revenues will be implemented in November 2017 and will begin to be remitted to
the City soon after that. This funding will supplement the $23 million in local funding
sources that is budgeted for local roads maintenance within for this budget year.
Because of the timing of when the City will receive this new source of revenue,
staff will propose to allocate this new funding during the mid-year budget update
in January 2018.
At the federal level, the White House unveiled its blueprint for the next federal
budget cycle earlier this year. Unfortunately, the proposal includes the elimination
of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME programs. The City
currently receives $4.3 million annually from these sources that provide resources
to variety of different infrastructure projects and services that benefit low and
moderate-income residents of the City. A reduction or elimination of these
programs will have a substantial impact on the City’s budget. This includes the
potential elimination of funding for three police officer positions that are
budgeted for downtown patrol. The federal appropriations process is not
expected to conclude for some time, so any adjustments that are needed will
likely not occur until later in the City’s fiscal year.
The FY 2017-18 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Budget is adopted at
$7 million, which reflects a relatively equivalent year-over-year capital
program. The most notable increases come from the appropriation of
federal earmarks associated with the Thomas Roads Improvement Program
(TRIP) projects that remain in the design, right-of-way acquisition or
construction phases. These federal funds have been programmed in several
fiscal year based on the status
vi
of each individual project. Outside of the inclusion of the federal TRIP earmarks,
the CIP budget reflects a modest plan to make improvements to the local street
system, parks, first responder facilities, utility facilities and Rabobank Arena. Much
of the discretionary CIP funding is allocated toward local match requirements on
state or federal grants, where the City is able to leverage outside funding sources
for a variety of improvements. The remainder of the discretionary funding is
allocated toward vital projects that ensure taxpayer-funded facilities and
infrastructure meet expected standards. As it remains a top priority of the City
Council, the CIP includes non-TRIP local street funding that exceeds current year
levels. Staff continues to actively pursue grant opportunities for City
transportation, housing, parks, water resources-related infrastructure
improvements, equipment and capital projects.
Budget Overview and Highlights
Personnel Complement:
The FY 2017-18 Adopted Budget includes the addition of four positions. Each of
these positions is funded through non-General Fund sources. These newly
authorized positions include:
The three Police Officer positions are funded by CDBG funds and will be assigned
to the downtown area for enhanced patrol and enforcement. The use of CDBG
funds for this specific purpose was most recently utilized in FY 2014-15. The Budget
and Finance Committee reviewed and recommended these additions as part of
the FY 2017-18 HUD Action Plan process.
The Solid Waste Equipment Operator position will assist the Solid Waste Division in
continuing to provide exceptional service to residential customers. The new
position is needed in response to new residential development that have been
added to City-serviced routes since the last position was added in FY 2014-15. As
of January 2017, 1,472 homes have been added since the last position was
approved. Continuing growth on City-operated routes is averaging over 50 new
homes per month. One driver and truck can service approximately 1,575 homes.
Currently, in order to service these additional homes, the division is utilizing staff
from the Green Waste Facility and utilizing overtime. The addition of this new
position will alleviate the need to pull resources from other areas within the
division.

ongoing.
No cost of living adjustments have factored into the FY 2017-18 Adopted Budget.
Factors Affecting the Local Oil Industry:
Since late 2014, the local oil industry has been significantly affected by global oil
supply issues, which drove local oil prices to under $25 per barrel in January 2016.
This resulted in a nearly 35 percent decrease – 4,500 jobs - in oil sector employment
within Kern County. Subsequently, both oil-related and discretionary retail
purchases dropped drastically, negatively affecting the City’s General Fund. This
required substantial budgetary adjustments over the last two years, including a
loss of 13 full time General Fund positions in FY 2016-17 and a reduction in
discretionary capital projects.
Since January 2016, there has been a modest recovery in local oil prices, which
currently sit between $45 and $50 per barrel. This increase has resulted in some
producers reactivating oil exploration operations. The recent increase in oil
activity is one of the reasons we believe the 4th quarter sales tax receipts trended
slightly positive. The health of the local oil industry is dependent on many factors,
including global supply and demand, as well as the state’s regulatory
environment. Although the recent data suggests the worst is in the immediate
past, it is too soon to suggest the local oil economy is in full recovery mode. Staff
will continue to monitor data as the fiscal year progresses.
State and Federal Legislative Actions Affecting Budgetary Outlook:
Since January 2017, there has been multiple proposals at the state and federal
level which may or will have a significant impact on the City’s budget – both in FY
2017-18 and beyond. These proposals, outlined in further detail below, will likely

require adjustments to this budget at a point in time to be determined.
Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 (RMRA) – On April 28, 2017 the
Governor signed Senate Bill (SB) 1, which is known as the Road Repair and
Accountability Act of 2017. SB 1 includes additional excise taxes on vehicle fuel,
as well as new and increased vehicle registration fees. This new revenue is, in part,
allocated directly to cities for the purpose of improving the pavement conditions
of local streets throughout the state. The new revenues begin to be assessed in
November 2017. Therefore, the City is expected to receive a partial year of
funding from these new sources in FY 2017-18, which is estimated to be
approximately $2.6 million. This funding will not be available until after November
2017. In addition, the legislation requires the City to produce certain budget and
reporting documents in order to receive the funding. Due to the timelines
associated with when the City will begin to receive the funding, as well as staff
needing further clarification from the State on the reporting guidelines, this
funding is not included within the FY 2017-18 Adopted Budget. Staff anticipates
bringing an item to the Council during the mid-year budget update to allocate
the RMRA funding for FY 2017-18.
Moving forward, the first full year of funding under the RMRA will be FY 2018-19.
Allocations to local streets and roads and other transportation programs will
increase substantially in FY 2018-19. The state estimates that RMRA funds available
to the City in FY 2018-19 is $6.9 million.
Federal Housing and Urban Development Entitlement Funding – In early March
2017, President Trump unveiled his 2018 proposed federal budget blueprint. The
blueprint includes a proposed $6.2 billion or 13.2 percent decrease to the
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) budget. To achieve these
reductions, the President has proposed to eliminate funding for the CDBG and
the HOME Investment Partnerships Program. Combined, the City receives
approximately $4.3 million in annual entitlements from these programs, which is
now in jeopardy to be eliminated. This funding provides resources for programs,
services and projects that directly benefit low and moderate-income residents
within the City. In addition, eight full time positions are fully or partially funded
through these entitlements to administer the programs. Over many years, the City
has utilized these funds to installed hundreds of miles of curb, gutter and sidewalk,
construct affordable housing units, improve City parks, provide fair housing
services, support services for senior citizens and partner with local non-profits
serving low and moderate-income residents.
Since the time of the President’s proposal, several actions have occurred within
the legislative bodies of the federal government which indicate the CDBG and
Home Investment Partnerships Program will continue to be funded in the next
federal fiscal year. However, the federal budget process contains multiple
x
forthcoming steps; therefore, staff will be closely monitoring the federal budget
process for any additional changes that may occur.
Local Street Maintenance and Projects:
In support of Council Goals for local street maintenance, resurfacing and road
construction projects, the FY 2017-18 Adopted Budget includes local funding in
the amount of $23.9 million for Non-TRIP related road maintenance and projects.
This includes funding from the following local funding sources:
General Fund: $14,453,739
Capital Outlay Fund: $2,526,602
Gas Tax Fund: $4,185,024
Transportation Development Fund: $2,795,700
The Gas Tax Fund amount for non-TRIP related road maintenance and projects
does not include additional anticipated local funding to be provided to the City
as part of the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017. These funds will be
appropriated as part of a mid-year budget action due to the new revenues not
materializes until after November 2017.
In addition, $1.48 million in CDBG funds are budgeted to continue curb, gutter
and other street improvement projects in eligible project areas. These areas
include:
Union Avenue/Brundage Lane (Ward 1)
Oleander (Ward 2)
La France/El Toro (Ward 1)
Old Town Kern (Ward 2)
Recreational Activities and Projects:
The FY 2017-18 Adopted Budget continues to allocate funding toward recreation
and parks projects to meet the demand for these facilities.
The adopted CIP budget includes an additional $335,000 in Park Improvement
Funds for Phase II of Mesa Marin Sports Complex and $1.35 million in Park
Improvement Funds for Phase IV of the State Farm Sports Village.
In addition to the large sports complex projects, the FY 2017-18 CIP includes
funding for the following notable Recreation and Parks projects:
Installation of shade structures, picnic area and accessibility improvements
at Lowell and Stiern Parks (CDBG funds)
Installation of shade structures and accessibility improvements at Jastro
xi
Park (Park Improvement Funds)
Master Fee Schedule Update:
Earlier this year, the Finance Department and City Manager’s Office staff met with
all City departments to initiate a comprehensive update of the master fee
schedule. Over the past several years, some fees have been increased by a small
percentage, but have not kept pace with actual costs to process and execute
certain permitting and licensing activities. In these cases, the General Fund is
absorbing or subsidizing the costs to provide these services. This update cycle will
focus on moving toward full cost recovery for fees for services, as allowed by State
law. The FY 2017-18 Adopted budget was developed with the assumption fees
will be adjusted to closer reflect full cost recovery. A public hearing will be held in
the near future for the City Council to consider the new fees.
Minimum Wage Increase:
From January 1, 2017, to January 1, 2022, the minimum wage within California will
increase annually for employers employing 26 or more employees, including the
City. These changes in state law will result in the minimum wage to be increased
to $15 per hour by 2022. Each year, staff will be reviewing position classifications
to ensure compliance with the law and to alleviate any compaction issues that
arise due to the mandatory increases. This change is expected to have an
approximately $55,000 increase to the organization in calendar year 2017.
Sewer, Refuse and Domestic Water Rates:
Refuse, sewer and domestic water services operate independently of the City’s
General Fund and costs to provide those services continue to increase
incrementally. The application of user rates across all customer groups to provide
the respective service is governed by Proposition 218, which requires the user rates
reflect a proportionate share of costs to providing the service. The established
rate increases for FY 2017-18 are essential to fund operational and capital costs
and to ensure sufficient reserves to meet long-term needs. The new rates, as
adopted by the City Council , went into effect on July 1, 2017 if not otherwise
noted below. For most customers, these user rates are collected as part of the
annual property tax collection process.
The following is a summary of the City Council approved changes to rates:
Refuse Rates – The residential refuse rates increased by 2 percent from
$195.72 to $200 per year (rounded to the nearest dollar). The rate increase
will cover all residential hauling fees by the City. The residential fee includes
the following services: tan trash container, green waste container, blue
recycling container, bulky item collection, curbside motor oil collection, a
free Green waste drop off, and street sweeping. Additionally, Commercial
refuse rates increased by 2 percent for all customer classes, with the
xii
exception of the Organic Composting Gate Fee. This rate increase wass
necessary to cover all the anticipated expenses in the next fiscal year.
Sewer Rates - Staff proposed no change to the user rate for residential
sewer rates. The residential rate for FY 2017-18 is $215. Additionally,
commercial base rates collected on the property tax roll will not
experience any increase. Some commercial users will experience
increased costs resulting from the continuation of the phase-in (year four of
five) of the change in sewage characteristics previously approved by the
City Council in June 2014. This change redistributed costs to treat
wastewater from a volume basis to a strength basis. The increases apply to
commercial users that exceed baseline water usage in the prior calendar
year.
Sewer Connection Fees - Sewer connection fees (SCF) are a one-time fee
assessed by the City and paid by developers at the time a building permit
fee is paid or by new sewer customers connecting to City sewer. Staff has
recently evaluated both residential and commercial SCF calculations. The
SCF is the cost of providing a unit of capacity or proportional share for new
customers in a cost-based, fair and equitable manner. This review of the
methodology resulted in a single-family connection fee of $5,377. Staff
proposed and the City Council approved increasing the SCF from the
current rate of $4,000 to $5,000 over five years, limiting the annual increase
to $200 per year. The SCF for a single family residential unit in FY 2017-18 is
established at $4,200.
Domestic Water Rates – The State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB)
is expected to adopt drinking water standards, or a maximum contaminant
level for Trichloropropane (TCP) later this year. If this occurs, it will impose a
multi-million dollar capital cost on the City and result in increased annual
operating costs. To meet the proposed standards, the City will be
responsible for installing and maintaining treatment filters on City wells, as
well as annual testing and reporting requirements. Simultaneously, the City
is engaged in litigation with the parties responsible for the TCP
contamination. It is possible, but not certain, that some of the treatment
costs will be recovered from this action. When the SWRCB adopts the new
regulations, a rate increase will be necessary. The exact amount of such an
increase will become clearer as the SWRCB plan is finalized and the
litigation moves forward. Initial information indicates the increase will likely
be considered significant in comparison to past rate changes.
Other Miscellaneous Items of Note:
City Council contingency amount of $25,000 has been budgeted for
unexpected items that may evolve going into next fiscal year.
xiii
An amount of $37,000 has been budgeted to continue the City’s support
of the Bakersfield Symphony Orchestra and the Beale Park Band.
The State Budget, CalPERS, Active Employee Medical and Retiree Medical:
The State Budget:
On June 27th, the State’s FY 2018 budget was signed by the Governor. The state’s
Budget Act continues to bolster the state’s Rainy Day Fund and pay down
accumulated debts and liabilities to counter the potential fiscal impact of federal
policy changes on California and the potential end of an economic expansion
that has surpassed historical averages. There are no significant provisions
contained within the state’s Budget that are expected to impact the City
negatively in FY 2017-18.
Further detailed discussion regarding new state transportation funding is outlined
earlier in this document.
Pension and Retiree Medical Costs:
In early 2013, CalPERS approved new policies that began to impact rates the City
pays in FY 2015-16. The new policies were to increase employer-paid rates by
about $2 million per year until 2021. However, more recently, CalPERS has revised
its investment projections and made changes to the employer rate structure,
which affects how much the City must contribute to CalPERS. In FY 2017-18, the
City has been notified CalPERS rate changes will result in an estimated $2.4 million
increase. In FY 2018-19, CalPERS is projecting the City’s pension contribution will
increase by $6.5 million. These unanticipated cost increases create significant
challenges in addressing other needs within the organization. The increases are
reflected in the increases in costs within most departments. Staff has budgeted
$500,000 as a partial set aside for future anticipated increases.
The following table provides citywide CalPERS actuals for the past three fiscal
years, as well as projections for the current and next six fiscal years. The projections
include two estimates, based on two projected annual CalPERS discount rates
(i.e. the projected return on CalPERS investments):
xiv
Employee Healthcare:
Once again, this year healthcare premiums across most plans have increased.
The aggregated increase for active healthcare plans is approximately $281,000
for FY 2017-18. The City currently pays for 80 percent of the monthly premium costs
for all labor groups. The increases are reflected within each department’s
respective budget.
Retiree Medical:
The City provides post-employment retiree medical benefits to eligible retired
employees. The City utilizes an actuary to determine the City's Annual Required
Contributions (ARC) to an Irrevocable Trust Fund to pre-fund the future
anticipated costs of these benefits. Full time City employees hired after February
22, 2006 are not eligible to participate in the retiree health subsidy program.
The City’s ARC for retiree healthcare attributable to the General Fund is
calculated to be $5,786,700 for FY 2017-18. This amount is fully budgeted within
the adopted budget.
xv
Overview of Appropriations and Resources
The City’s budget is organized by groups of funds. Each fund is considered a
separate accounting entity with its own assets, liabilities, equity, revenue and
expenses. The major fund groups and some divisions within the funds are
described below, highlighting significant changes compared to the prior year.
Appropriations:
The adopted total appropriations for both operating and capital expenditures for
FY 2017-18 is $494,160,000. The total appropriations in FY 2017-18 for all City funds
reflects an increase of $32,662,960 or 7.08 percent as compared to the FY 2016-
17 Adopted Budget. The increase is generally attributable to increases in federal
transportation funding being appropriated within the Capital Improvement
Program, as well as increases to CalPERS employer paid rates.
The total appropriated for the operating budget is $420,327,854, which reflects a
increase of $12,908,654, or 3.17 percent increase, as compared to the FY 2016-17
Adopted Budget. The increase is generally attributable to increases to CalPERS
employer paid rates
The total appropriated for the CIP Budget is $73,832,146 which reflects an increase
of $19,754,306, or 36.5 percent, as compared to the FY 2016-17 Adopted CIP
Budget. The increase is generally a result of the timing in which certain federal
earmark funds are budgeted for TRIP projects. For TRIP projects that have federal
earmark funding remaining, the federal funding is budgeted as the projects reach
certain phases or milestones. In FY 2017-18, this the federal funds appropriated
totals $17.5 million, whereas no federal earmark funding was allocated in the FY
2016-17 CIP budget. In addition, the City will receive $8.7 million in non-TRIP related
federal transportation funds in FY 2017-18, as compared to $6.2 million in FY 2016-
17. These two items account for the majority of the overall increase to the CIP
budget.
General Fund Expenditures:
General Fund appropriations total $201,445,000, which reflects an increase of
$5,470,000 or 2.79 percent as compared to the FY 2016-17 Adopted Budget. The
increase is chiefly due to increases in CalPERS employer paid costs and the City’s
healthcare costs.
Resources:

Major revenue sources for the General Fund are property tax, sales and use taxes,
business license tax, utility franchise tax, licenses and permits, State motor vehicle
xvi
in-lieu tax, and miscellaneous charges for services.

Sales tax revenue is projected to show no growth in FY 2017-18, as compared to
a revised -10 percent decrease for FY 2016-17.
Resources for the General Fund total $201,445,000, which reflects an increase of
$5,470,000 or 2.79 percent as compared to the FY 2016-17 Adopted Budget. The
General Fund revenue sources derived from taxes include: $77,523,500 in property
taxes, $63,708,100 in sales and use taxes, and $11,150,000 in other taxes. The
remainder of the resources for the General Fund is comprised of $29,313,400 in
other revenue sources, $19,200,000 in beginning fund balance, and $550,000 in
transfers.

xviii
to monitor the federal budget process, as preliminary documents show the
President’s intention to eliminate CDBG and HOME funding. These funding sources
fully or partially fund five existing positions within the Department.
Mayor’s Office:
The operating budget for the Mayor’s Office is $165,906, which is a -2.04 percent
decrease as compared to the FY 2016-17 Adopted Budget. The decrease in the
Mayor’s Office budget is generally due to changes elective medical coverage
by staff. Most other line items remain consistent with the current year’s
appropriations.
City Council:
The operating budget for the City Council is $253,265, which is a -5.14 percent
decrease as compared to the FY 2016-17 Adopted Budget. The decrease is
generally due to changes elective medical coverage by staff. Most other line
items remain consistent with the current year’s appropriations.
Executive:
The operating budget for the Executive Department (City Manager’s Office,
Human Resources, Technology Services, City Clerk and Risk Management) is
$21,717,488, which is a 4.39 percent increase as compared to the FY 2016-17

Fund. The most significant increase to the Department’s operating budget
include the increases associated with CalPERS employer paid rates and increases
in technology usage. No staffing changes are occurring for the Department.
The equipment fund reflects an increase of 18.87 percent due partially to the
addition of new software systems implemented over the past year including
pavement management system, SCADA system for the Streets Division, animal
care center management system, new time card software and video
management system licensing. The bulk of the increase is due to equipment
replacement needs, specifically within the Police Department.
There are no significant changes within the self-insurance fund.

Equipment Management Fund, Refuse Fund, Wastewater Fund and Assessment
District Funds. The General Fund budget reflects a slight increase compared to
the FY 2016-17 Adopted Budget because of a combination of a rise in salaries
and benefits and operating costs. The Equipment Fund decrease from the prior
year is a reduction in the number of planned copier replacements based upon
an evaluation of anticipated needs for the next fiscal year. The Assessment District
Funds decrease is a combined result of some districts closing from the natural
course of business and the consolidation refinancing of 12 districts, which was
completed about three years ago.
Selected Fund Summaries
Enterprise Funds:
Enterprise Funds account for business-like activities supported primarily by user
charges, such as water and wastewater utilities, refuse, and the municipal airport.
Water Resources – The operating budget for the Water Resources Department is
$25,024,456, which is a -1.39 percent decrease as compared to the FY 2016-17
Adopted Budget. No staffing changes are occurring for the Department.
Agricultural Water Fund – The operating budget for the Agricultural Water
Division is $4,079,341, which is a -12.22 percent decrease as compared to
the FY 2016-17 Adopted Budget. The decrease is due to reductions in both
salary and benefits related items and various operating line item reductions
that will be realized during the next fiscal year.
Domestic Water Fund – The operating budget for the Domestic Water
Division is $ 20,945,115, which is a 1.04 percent increase as compared to the
FY 2016-17 Adopted Budget. Increases in the City’s operation and
maintenance agreement with California Water Service Company, treated
water costs and salary and benefits account for the notable increases
within this fund.
Refuse Fund – The operating budget for the Refuse Fund is $48,192,422, which is a
5.72 percent increase as compared to the FY 2016-17 Adopted Budget. Several
factors have resulted in the approximately $2.6 million increase. The City’s
agreement with private haulers will increase by 2.1 percent or $422,000. Internal
fleet rates will increase due to a change where rates now account for full cost
xx
recovery of future replacement costs of refuse vehicles. Increases are also due to
rising costs associated with CalPERS employer paid rates, increases in new and
replacement residential carts and commercial bins, and increase in electricity
costs for the Green Waste Facility.
The budget for the Solid Waste Division includes the approved increase to
residential refuse rates by 2 percent from $195.72 to $200 per year (rounded to
the nearest dollar). The rate increase will cover all residential hauling fees by the
City. The residential fee includes tan trash container, green waste container, blue
recycling container, bulky item collection, curbside motor oil collection, a free
green waste drop off and street sweeping.
Sewer Fund – Operating funds budgeted within the Sewer Fund for FY 2017-18
total $15,476,752, which represents a 3 percent increase compared to the FY
2016-17 Adopted Budget. As part of the sewer budget, there is no rate increase
for residential sewer rates (currently $215 annually). Some commercial users will
experience increased costs resulting from the continuation of the phase-in (year
four of five) of the change in sewage characteristics previously approved by the
City Council in June 2014. This change redistributed costs to treat wastewater from
a volume basis to a strength basis. Sewer connection fees have increased from
$4,000 to $4,200 for a single-family residential unit. These fees are paid upon
application for a building permit or permit to connect an existing building to the
City sewer system.
Internal Service Funds:
These funds account for services provided to City departments to support
operations with vehicles, telecommunications equipment, computers, and
liability, property and Workers’ Compensation insurance.
Equipment Management Fund – The Equipment Management Fund provides for
funding of vehicles, telecommunications equipment, computers, and copier
equipment. Rates charged for equipment within the Equipment Management
Fund are based on actual costs for depreciation, improvements, and
replacement, and are billed to departments on a monthly basis.
Fleet Division – The Fleet Division has budgeted for approximately $7.5
million in vehicle and equipment replacement. Determination of
equipment identified for replacement is developed through an extensive
analysis by the Fleet Division, in consultation with the individual departments
and the Budget Team. The budget includes the replacement of 38 police
vehicles and three fire vehicles, including two light engines.
xxi
Technology Services (TS) Division – The TS Division is responsible for the
acquisition, replacement, maintenance and operations of the City’s entire
communications infrastructure, including computers, phones, cell phones,
radios and other network-based equipment. The TS Division has budgeted
approximately $1.3 million to replace network and computer equipment in
FY 2017-18. The largest component of replacement equipment include 102
workstations and 100 mobile data computers for the Police Department.
The 102 Police workstations comprise 55 percent of all the workstations
scheduled to be replaced citywide in FY 2017-18. Of the 100 mobile data
computers scheduled for replacement, 87 were deferred from FY 2016-17.
Self-Insurance Fund – The Self-Insurance Fund provides a self-funded program for
general liability and workers’ compensation insurance. Rates charged for
workers’ compensation insurance are based on an actuarial report that reflects
changes in the workers’ compensation program due to adverse loss
development, as well as increasing industry loss trends and related court
decisions. Rates charged for liability and property insurance are based on the
premiums paid by the City. Additionally, excess insurance is purchased as a
member of the Authority for California Cities for Excess Liability (ACCEL).
For FY 2017-18, the Risk Management Division’s budget is $10,390,836, which
represents a 2.21 percent increase, as compared to the FY 2016-17 Adopted
Budget. The Risk Management Division continues to allocate $12,000 to for
citywide programs to improve safety in the workplace.
The Risk Management Division also coordinates the recently established wellness
committee. The City was awarded the 2015 Cities for Workforce Health grant by
the League of California Cities. The City was one of five agencies selected for this
grant. The grant provided the City an opportunity to conduct an evaluation of
the City’s existing wellness program and subsequently identify recommendations
to improve employee health. Through the assistance of consultants, the City is
working to establish a sustainable wellness program. This process will continue in
throughout FY 2017-18.
Special Revenue Funds:
Special Revenue Funds account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that
are restricted to expenditures for specific purposes. Examples are CDBG, Gas Tax,
Federal Transportation Funds and the Transient Occupancy Tax Fund.
Housing and Urban Development Entitlements – CDBG and HOME Investment
Partnership funds come from the Federal Government Department of Housing
and Urban Development (HUD) for the elimination of slums and blight,
development of affordable housing and the creation of jobs. The City’s
entitlement of CDBG funds and HOME Investment Partnership funds is budgeted
xxii
in the amount of $3,253,214 and $1,081,081 respectively, which reflects no
change when compared to the FY 2016-17 entitlements.
CDBG funds are budgeted for the following infrastructure and facilities projects
for FY 2017-18:
Home Access Rehabilitation
Union-Brundage Area Drainage Improvements
Baker St/Old Town Kern, Gutter and Sidewalks
La France/El Toro Area Curb, Gutter and Sidewalks
Oleander Area Curb, Gutter and Sidewalks
Stiern Park Playground Shade Structure
Lowell Park ADA Improvements and Shade Structure
In addition to the aforementioned projects, CDBG contributions are allocated to
the following organizations and programs:
Fair Housing Program Services - $100,000
Bakersfield Senior Center - $85,000
Bakersfield Police Department - $302,982
As outlined previously within this document, the CDBG and HOME programs may
be subject to budget cuts or elimination by the federal government. Staff will
continue to monitor the federal budget appropriations process to determine,
what, if any adjustments may be necessary as the fiscal year progresses.
Transient Occupancy Tax Fund – The Transient Occupancy Tax Fund was
established in July 1998 to account for the general revenues provided by a 12
percent room tax and the operation and debt related to the Rabobank Arena.
This includes the contract with AEG for management of the operations of the
facilities. Revenues from operation of the complex go into this fund. This fund also
includes debt service payments on the Arena facility. The operational costs and
revenues for the Bakersfield Ice Sports Center are included in this fund. The
adopted budget includes funding for Visit Bakersfield staffed by City employees
who report to the City Manager’s Office. Any available Transient Lodging Tax
funds, after taking into account the City’s long-term commitments for Rabobank
Arena, Ice Sports Center, and Visit Bakersfield are transferred to the City’s Capital
Improvement Program budget for projects.
Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) provides planning for the City of
Bakersfield’s infrastructure over a five-year planning period. Revenue sources
identified within the CIP may be from grants, taxes, user fees, bond issues, transfers
xxiii
from other funds, or assessments. Approved CIP projects for FY 2017-18 continue
to be focused on TRIP and road projects. Limited discretionary capital funding is
allocated to local street maintenance (non-TRIP), parks and critical facilities-
related projects.
The following is intended to provide a summary of the major projects budgeted
within the FY 2017-18 CIP. Further information on all Adopted capital projects is
located within the Capital Improvement Program section of the adopted budget
document.
Thomas Roads Improvement Program
Centennial Corridor – $36.6 million is budgeted within various funds for the
construction phases of the Centennial Corridor project. Funding is included for the
necessary cash flow as called for under the long-term financing plan for the
project. In addition, funds are allocated for various construction activities of the
mainline connection, including sound walls and local streets. Funding sources for
this project include federal earmark funds, Transportation Development Funds,
Sewer Enterprise Funds, Gas Tax Funds and Utility Surcharge Funds.
Truxtun Avenue Operational Improvement Project – This project will make
operational improvements along Truxtun Avenue, from Empire Drive to Elm
Street. This includes the widening of Truxtun Avenue from four to six lanes. Initial
funding for the construction of this project was previously programmed in FY
2016-17. Additional $2,655,900 of Federal funds are programmed in FY 2017-18
for construction of the project.
Brighton Park Sound Wall – This project will construct a wall of varying height on
top of a dirt berm to be located just east of Allen Road between the Westside
Parkway and the recharge basins south of the freeway. This $986,000 project is
to be funded by County Local TRIP funds.
Community Development Block Grant
CDBG projects totaling $1.75 million are budgeted for FY 2017-18.
Right-of-way within four CDBG-eligible areas will be improved during FY 2017-18.
The primary goal of these projects is to improve both drainage and pedestrian
accessibility by installing sidewalk, curb and gutter, handicap ramps, and cross-
gutters where needed. The four project sites include Brundage Lane, within the
Union Avenue, 4th Street and Kern Island Canal areas, California Avenue, Verde
Street, Chester Avenue and ‘A’ Streets areas, Flower Street, Kentucky Street,
Beale Avenue, and Virginia Street area and the South ‘H’ Street, El Toro Drive,
Belle Terrace, and Ming Avenue areas.
xxiv
In addition, two CDBG parks projects will provide for shade structures and
accessibility improvements at Stiern and Lowell Parks.
Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act Fund
Pavement Rehabilitation (Regional Surface Transportation Program) – As part of
the ongoing federal pavement rehabilitation program, staff has identified
several projects that will rehabilitate pavement along local road segments. The
amounts budgeted for these projects are funded primarily by federal funds and
require a local match. Project highlights include:
‘A’ Street from Brundage Lane to California Avenue – This $1.5 million project will
rehabilitate the pavement along this road segment and improve the overall
rideability of the road for both passenger and commercial vehicles. Funding for
this project is comprised of $1,287,328 in federal funding, with Capital Outlay
funds providing a $272,672 local match.
Auburn Street from Oswell Street to Fairfax Road – This $938,000 project will
rehabilitate the pavement along this road segment and improve the overall
rideability of the road for both passenger and commercial vehicles. Funding for
this project is comprised of $773,273 in federal funding, with Capital Outlay funds
providing a $164,727 local match.
White Lane from Union Avenue to Cottonwood Road – This $1,052,000 project will
rehabilitate the pavement along this road segment and improve the overall
rideability of the road for both passenger and commercial vehicles. Funding for
this project is comprised of $866,976 in federal funding, with Gas Tax funds
providing an $185,024 local match.
The above-mentioned pavement rehabilitation projects will also include
improvements to the curb return access ramps to meet current ADA standards.
Additionally, staff will review all road segments for potential bike lane
modifications.
Manor Street Bridge Rehabilitation – This project was previously funded in FY 2009-
10 based on preliminary estimates for the scope of work. After various studies,
project analysis, and oversight from Caltrans, a more accurate construction
estimate, nearing $9 million, has been established. Currently, $5 million is
budgeted for this project. The remaining $4,030,000 consists of $3,567,759 in
federal funding, with Capital Outlay funds providing a $462,241 local match.
Pedestrian Countdown Timers, Northwest and Southwest – Two pedestrian
countdown timers projects are included in FY 2017-18. Each of these projects will
xxv
install pedestrian countdown timers at various signalized intersections located
throughout Northwest and Southwest Bakersfield. A total of $335,600 is budgeted
for these projects. Funding for these projects includes $302,040 of federal funds,
with $33,560 of Capital Outlay funds providing the local match.
Capital Outlay Fund
Police Firing Range Remodel - This project will upgrade the Bakersfield Police
Department firing range located at Truxtun Avenue just west of Oak Street with
modernized infrastructure and facilities. Staff is currently working toward finalizing
design of the facility. The funding for this project will come from seized asset trust
and Capital Outlay Funds.
Local match requirement for federal projects - local match requirements for $1.4
million are budgeted for federally funded projects previously summarized within
the ISTEA section of this transmittal.
Resurfacing Various Streets – This $1 million project will continue the City Council
priority goal to fund street rehabilitation and resurfacing. Funds will be used to
repave and resurface asphalt pavement on city streets. City staff will perform
construction. An additional $4 million is budgeted within the Gas Tax Fund for this
project.
Ice Chiller Replacement at Rabobank Arena – This project will replace the ice
chiller at the Rabobank Arena. Replacement of the ice chiller at the Arena is
critical to ensure that ice-related events such as Condors games and Disney on
Ice are not affected. Emergency repairs completed in FY 2013-14 were
estimated to last five to seven years; however, since the repairs were made, the
chiller has had two major leaks and several minor leaks. Additionally, the existing
system utilizes R22 refrigerant, which will be phased out by the Environmental
Protection Agency in 2020. As a result, the cost of R22 is anticipated to triple in
the next few years and will be difficult to acquire. If still available, the cost to
replenish R22 refrigerant for the entire system will exceed $100,000 in the next
three years. Due to high demand, there is currently a three- year waiting list to
have the chiller system replaced. Because of the critical nature of this project,
staff recommended to budget $1 million for the project.
Fire Station No. 2 Bathroom and Locker Room Facilities Rehabilitation – This
$140,000 project will modernize the existing bathroom at Fire Station No. 2 as well
as revamp the locker room area. Constructed in 1906, the facility is the oldest
active Fire Station operated by the City. The previous remodel of the bathroom
facilities occurred in 1985.
ADA Transition Plan – This multi-phase project is consistent with the City’s ADA
xxvi
Transition Plan, and will fund priority ADA improvements as identified throughout
the fiscal year. A total of $25,000 in funding for ADA improvements is budgeted
for FY 2017-18.
Median Improvements on California Avenue from Oak Street to ‘G’ Street – With
California Avenue scheduled for reconstruction, this project presents the
opportunity to rehabilitate the green asphalt surface of the California Avenue
median island and enhance the aesthetics of the corridor. $284,000 is budgeted
for FY 2017-18.
Community Development Building Rehabilitation – This $25,000 project provides
the final funding needed to complete the rehabilitation of the Community
Development building located at 1715 Chester Ave. Previous year capital
funding allowed for the remodel of the first floor lobby and permit counter areas.
The project will allow for the completion of the first floor conference room and
auxiliary spaces. This room will be utilized by staff for meetings, hearings and other
gatherings. Currently, the conference room space within the building is limited
to other floors not immediately accessible by the public.
Re-Epoxy Kennel ‘E’ – City of Bakersfield Animal Care Facility – The concrete for
the kennels in Kennel ‘E’ at the CBACC is lifting and crackling, making it difficult
to sanitize the area. This project consists of coating the kennel floor and walls with
an antimicrobial epoxy, which reduces the animals’ exposure to disease, meets
the Target Zero audit recommendation, and allows staff to easily sanitize the
kennels daily. Kennel ‘E’ was not epoxied during the facility upgrade project in
2013. Budgeted funding for this project totals $38,000.
Park Improvement Fund
Park development projects continue to focus on the two regional sports
complexes.
Sports Village Phase IV - $1.3 million is budgeted for the continuation of the build
out of the Bakersfield Sports Village. Phase IV will include will include four
regulation football fields, two parking lots and extension of Play Fair Drive.
Mesa Marin Sports Complex Phase II – An additional $335,000 is budgeted to
continue the expansion of the regional park in northeast Bakersfield. Phase II is
currently under construction and will include a new wet playground, as well as
additional picnic areas and walking paths. The additional funding will be utilized
for future amenities to be identified.
xxvii
Transportation Development Fund
Street Improvements on Stine Road – This $1.1 million, multi-year project will widen
Stine Road between Ryzona Drive and Hosking Avenue/McCutchen Road,
improving the overall flow of vehicle and pedestrian traffic. This road widening
will also improve the flow of traffic to Ridgeview High School. Funds for design
and right-of-way have been budgeted in previous years. Staff is currently working
with PG&E regarding rule 20A – undergrounding of utilities within the project area.
Street Improvements on College Avenue West of Fairfax Road – This $618,000
project will fund widening of the roadway on College Avenue and construction
of street improvements. Street improvements will alleviate flooding and erosion
of soil occurring during rain events on the north side of College Avenue, adjacent
to East Niles Water District, and will facilitate a safe walk-path for pedestrians. In
accordance with a previous agreement with the City, East Niles Water District
has relocated its water tank facilities to accommodate future street widening
done by the City.
Sewer Funds (Plants Nos. 2 And 3)
The CIP projects budgeted for the Wastewater Division continue to focus on
preventative maintenance for the complex treatment plants’ infrastructure with
a focus on preventative maintenance.
Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 2
Trickling Filter Pump Station Rehabilitation – The trickling pump station has a total
of four recirculation pumps and four transfer pumps that have been in service
since 1999 and are in need of extensive maintenance. Work has already begun
on two recirculation pumps. $240,000 of funding is budgeted for FY 2017-18 to
rehabilitate two transfer pumps and two recirculation pumps during FY 2017-18.
The remaining two transfer pumps are proposed to be rehabilitated during FY
2018-19.
Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3
Replace Digester Mixer Pump – Additional funding of $460,000 is requested to
replace obsolete mixing pumps. The current budget includes $402,700 of funding
for this project. Existing pumps are fifteen years old and replacement parts are
no longer available. Current cost estimates exceed available funding because
pump drawings indicate that intake and discharge locations for new pumps are
not compatible with the existing pumps. In order to install new pumps, piping
needs to be extensively reconfigured, a new equipment pedestal built, and
electrical modifications will also need to be made.
xxviii
Primary Clarifier Rehabilitation – Rehabilitation of clarifiers 1-4 was completed in
FY 2015-16. This $500,000 project will rehabilitate primary clarifiers 6 and 8.
Rehabilitation of the clarifiers includes: repairing, replacing, and recoating
concrete and metal surfaces; rebuilding the clarifier drives; replacing skimmer
arms; and regrading the launder channels. Rehabilitation of primary clarifiers 5
and 7 will be proposed in FY 2018-19.
Sanitary Sewer and Storm Improvements
Storm Lift Station at Tevis Ranch Sump – The Tevis Ranch sump is interconnected
to four sumps within the same area, most of which do not percolate well. Through
an agreement with Kern Delta, the City will install a pump station and outlet
structure (outlet structure completed in FY 2016-17) to drain storm runoff form the
Tevis Ranch sump into the Buena Vista Canal. Design of this lift station has been
completed. The $535,000 of budgeted funding is for project construction.
Storm Lift Station Rehabilitation at the Police Pistol Range – This project will
provide the storm drain lift station at the Police pistol range with new submersible
pumps, discharge pipes, outlet structure, and updates to lighting and safety
walkway. Retrofitting this aging lift station will improve performance and
eliminate costly maintenance issues. This project was selected to receive funding
through the California Office of Emergency Services for back-up generators;
however, the actual lift station rehabilitation is not eligible for grant funding.
Therefore, staff recommended to fund this project through sewer enterprise
funds. This storm lift station is critical to downtown drainage. Budgeted funding
for FY 2017-18 of $106,000 will fund design of the project. The Five-Year CIP Plan
includes $770,000 of proposed funding for FY 2018-19.
Storm Lift Station on Talisman Drive – This project will install a pump station at the
sump on Kristina Court, south of Talisman Drive. Currently, the sump has poor
percolation, causing lack of proper storm water drainage, causing storm water
to back-up into the street and flood the area. Remedies, repairs, and
maintenance to this sump require excessive staff time; for this reason, the sump
will be converted into a detention basin with a pump station that will direct the
storm water to a sump with better percolation. Installation of the pump station
will properly drain the sump and alleviate flooding. Funding in FY 2017-18 of
$105,000 will fund design of the project. The construction phase includes $871,000
of proposed funding for FY 2018-19.
Refuse Collection Fund
Two projects, totaling $350,000, are budgeted for FY 2017-18 within the Refuse
Collection Fund. Projects are as follows:
xxix
Compost Screening System – Compost made from green waste has been
screened and sold to farmers at the Green Waste Facility since 1995. State
regulations from 2015 require higher compost screening standards to be phased
in by 2018. The current screen system must be expanded to meet the new
standard. This $300,000 project will economically repurpose an existing screen
machine and add new pre-screen and post- screen machinery to expand the
system. Under the County Green Waste Agreement, Kern County will provide
funding for approximately 55% of the project.
Green Waste Facility Pavement Resurfacing – The pavement at the main public
unloading zone at the Green Waste Facility is deteriorating after 20 years of use.
Resurfacing the pavement at this time will eliminate the need for a complete
reconstruction in the future. Kern County, through the County Green Waste
Agreement, will provide about 55 percent of this project’s budget of $50,000.
Agricultural and Domestic Water Funds
Water Resources Building Expansion - The Water Resources Department's building
at 1000 Buena Vista Rd was constructed in 1991. As part of the original architect's
design, the vacant quadrant between the two buildings allows for design and
construction of a future facility. Additional space is needed due to incremental
increases in staffing levels since the facility opened. The $700,000 project provides
for a new building approximately 2,348 square and the reconstruction of the
existing Spanish clay roof tiles, and would provide ADA upgrades to the existing
buildings.
Parking Garage Fund
Automation Improvements to Parking Garage – Currently, the Eye Street
entrance to the parking garage can only be accessed by long-term users.
Improvements to both the gate and ticketing mechanisms are required to allow
daily users the ability to enter the parking garage from the Eye Street entrance.
Funding for this project totals $43,500 in FY 2017-18.
Equipment Management Fund
Backup Generator, Beach Park and Pistol Range – The City Manager’s Office
submitted a grant application with the California Office of Emergency Services
for two backup generators for these two storm drain lift stations. The $415,000
requested for FY 2017-18 includes $311,500 of grant funding with the remaining
$103,500 local match requirement funded by the Sewer Enterprise Fund. These
two lift stations are critical to downtown drainage issues during storm events.
xxx
Bikeway/Pedestrian Fund (TDA Article 3)
Bakersfield College Area Bike Lane/Routes – This $107,450 project will provide
much needed bike lanes/routes adjacent to Bakersfield College. Installation of
new bike lanes will benefit seven schools surrounding the Bakersfield College
Campus. This project is 100 percent funded through a competitive TDA grant
that is administered by Kern COG.
Summary
The FY 2017-18 Adopted Budget reflects the continued commitment to address
City Council Goals while simultaneously balancing the ever-changing economic
landscape at the local, state and federal levels. The adopted budget is essentially
a hold-the-line budget that allows departments to maintain existing staffing and
programs. Departments have done their best to prepare a budget within our
current financial constraints that can provide needed services to the public. Staff
will continue to be challenged to maintain service levels to meet community
growth, public demands and expectations. Pending state and federal budget
actions will likely affect the budget after it is adopted and will likely require further
adjustments.
Acknowledgements
The development of the budget takes a great amount of staff time and effort,
and must be completed within a defined period. I appreciate the contribution
made by all department heads, division managers, business managers and
budget managers.
Thanks go to the Budget Team for their valuable input and feedback during the
process. Assistant City Manager Chris Huot led this year’s effort and was assisted
by Finance Director Nelson Smith, Assistant Finance Director Sandra Jimenez,
Accounting Supervisor Randy McKeegan, Assistant City Manager Steve Teglia,
Management Assistant Caleb Blaschke, Assistant Police Chief Greg Terry, Assistant
Public Works Director Ted Wright, and Human Resources Manager Lisa
McGranahan.
Finally, my continued appreciation to the Mayor and City Council for your
leadership and direction in the budget process and throughout the year.

Revenues
The following are the primary revenue sources of the General Fund and Transient Occupancy Tax Fund.
The graphs contained in this section reflect the following: actual data for the first eight years, a projection
based on the latest information available during preparation of the budget for the current year, and a
projection for the next year based on the assumptions as outlined below.
Projected Revenue Assumptions:
Projected revenue assumptions are based on a combination of historic trend data and current
economic circumstances, including proposed State budget information and other external factors. The
key assumptions in the General Fund and Transient Occupancy Tax revenue forecast for FY 2017-18 are:
1)Secured property tax revenues are expected to increase 5 percent based on Kern County
assessed valuation projections;
2)Sales tax revenues are expected to show no growth compared to the current year revised
estimate of no growth;
3)License and Permit revenues are expected to slightly increase as compared to current year
revised estimates; and
4)Transient Occupancy Tax revenues are expected to remain unchanged when compared to
current year revised estimates.
Property Tax Revenues - Property taxes are imposed on real property and tangible personal property
located within the state. Property is assessed annually on January 1 by the County Assessor. The State
Constitution limits the real property tax rate to 1 percent of the property's value, plus rates imposed to
fund indebtedness approved by the voters.
Cities, counties, school districts and special districts share the revenues from the 1.0 percent property tax.
The County generally allocates revenues to these agencies based on their average property tax
revenue in the three years preceding 1978-79 and in each year thereafter according to the proportion of
property tax revenues allocated to each agency in the previous year.
When territory is incorporated into a new city, the City receives a share of the property tax revenues
based on the costs of services assumed from other governments and the proportion of these costs which
had been funded by the property tax. The use of property tax revenues is unrestricted.
Sales Tax Revenues - The sales tax rate is generally 7.25 percent statewide. The City’s sales tax revenue is
realized from the 1 percent local government portion of the total rate and the 0.5 percent rate (½ cent)
increase approved by the voters in November 1993 for public safety.
The local 1 percent is distributed based on “point of sale” while the ½ cent for public safety is distributed
95 percent to counties and 5 percent to cities. The 1 percent local sales tax revenue is distributed by the
Board of Equalization. Cities receive payments on a quarterly basis, with monthly estimated "advance"
payments and a subsequent "settlement" payment to cover the difference based on actual collections.
The ½ cent sales tax is distributed monthly. The largest single classification contributing to sales tax
revenues is the retail sales from Department Stores. Sales tax must be received into the City’s General
Fund and its uses are unrestricted.
License and Permit Revenue - The California Constitution gives cities the authority to charge license and
permit fees as a means of recovering the cost of regulation. The fees which make up "License and
Permits" include: building permits, plumbing permits, electrical permits, mechanical permits, street and
curb permits, and other use permits and licenses.
The City requires that building permits be obtained to ensure that structures meet specific standards. The
City requires various additional construction permits for activities such as the installation of electrical,
plumbing, and sewerage facilities. The City charges a fee for issuing these permits in order to recover the
costs incurred.
21
Motor Vehicle-In-Lieu Revenues - As to the portion of the remaining VLF revenue formerly distributed to
local governments, SB89 of 2011 eliminates, effective July 1, 2011, Vehicle License Fee (VLF) revenue
allocated under California Revenue and Taxation Code 11005 to cities. As a part of the Legislature’s
efforts to solve the state’s chronic budget problems, the bill shifted all city VLF revenues to fund law
enforcement grants that previously had been paid by a temporary state tax and – prior to that – by the
state general fund. The City expects minimal VLF revenues in 2017-18 and in subsequent years unless and
until there is a change in law.
Charges for Service - A service charge is a fee imposed upon the user of a service provided by the City.
Generally a service charge can be levied when the service can be measured and sold in marketable
units and the user can be identified. The rationale is that certain services are primarily for the benefit of
an individual rather than the general public. Individuals benefiting from a service should pay for all or a
part of the cost of that service. Fees charged are limited to the cost required to provide the service as
prescribed by Article XIIIB of the State Constitution. These fees are often determined by cities through a
cost accounting analysis of the specific service. Service charges differ from license and permit fees in
that the latter are designed to reimburse the City for costs related to its regulatory activities.
Some of the charges for service included in this revenue source are:
Maintenance district services - Reimbursements for costs of operating and maintaining all public
improvements which benefit a specific area;
Interdepartmental charges - Account for the financing of services provided by the General Fund to
another City department on a cost-reimbursement basis; and,
Arena charges - Revenues received from the use of the Rabobank Arena.
Transient Occupancy Tax - The Transient Occupancy Tax is imposed for the privilege of occupying a
room or rooms in a hotel, motel, or other lodging facility, unless such occupancy is for a period of thirty
(30)days or more. The City of Bakersfield has a transient lodging tax rate of 12 percent, which was
increased from 10 percent in the 1993-94 fiscal year. The use of revenues is unrestricted.

Non-Departmental
This section includes expenditures which cannot be attributed to a single
department or division. These expenditures are for services which may impact a
number of City departments and functions.
•Retiree Medical Benefits - This item provides for contributions to medical
insurance premiums for retired City employees with at least 10, 15, or 20 years
of service credit depending on date of hire, as provided for in various labor
agreements. Currently, the City provides benefits to over 300 retired
employees. Additionally, due to changes in Governmental Accounting
Standards Board pronouncements (GASB 43/45), this account may also
reflect the cost of benefits earned by current employees during the fiscal
year. The GASB now requires all governmental agencies to recognize the
cost of Other Post Employment Benefits (OPEB) as they are earned by
employees rather than when the premium subsidies are paid.
•Elections - This item includes funds for the planning for and execution of all
City elections.
•Property Tax Administration - Section 97 of the Revenue and Taxation Code
allows the County to charge all districts in the county for their share of the
County’s “Property Tax Administration Cost”. This cost commenced with the
1990-91 fiscal year as a result of state budgetary action. The cost to each
district is based upon its share of the current AB8 tax dollars, plus a share of
the countywide Unitary Tax Allocation. In November 2012 the California State
Supreme Court ruled that Counties, including Kern County, had been
incorrectly calculating the property tax administrative fees for Cities across
the state. As a result of the Court’s ruling, the City of Bakersfield realizes a
reduced annual administrative fee based on the clarified methodology.
•Park Development (NOR) – This item provides for the allocation of Park
Development Fees collected by the City within the NOR Recreation and
Parks District towards park acquisition and development by that agency.
•Contingency - The Contingency fund is intended to cover unanticipated
expenditures which the City Council decides to fund throughout the fiscal
year.

Capital Improvement Program Funds
Capital Outlay Fund - To account for the cost of capital projects financed
primarily by general revenues.
Capital Outlay – Utility/Road Fund – To account for the 1 percent local utility
surcharge for gas and electricity and the additional 0.5 percent revenue per the
City’s franchise agreement with Pacific Gas and Electric. The City Council
specifically earmarked these revenues for roads programs. On May 1, 2013, the
City Council adopted Ordinance No. 4726 which established the Roads Program
Utility Franchise Fee and Surcharge Fund. The ordinance requires specific utility
surcharge revenues accrue directly into the fund.
Recreation Facilities Fund - To account for the City's share of the State of general
obligation bonds authorized by Proposition 12 park bond issue and Proposition 13
water bond issue, which were approved by voters in March 2000, and other
major revenue sources for Park and Recreation Capital projects.
Park Improvement Fund - On November 7, 1990, the City Council adopted
Ordinance No. 3327 establishing a fee for the purpose of developing, improving
and/or enhancing public parks and recreation facilities serving the residential
development. The fee is calculated in relationship to the number of people
residing in the development and the current estimated cost of constructing a
park. The fee is set by resolution on a per unit basis.
Transportation Development Fund - The adopted Metropolitan Bakersfield General
Plan mandated that a Transportation Impact Fee be developed to mitigate
impacts of new development on the regional circulation system. The City Council
adopted the fee program on January 28, 1992 and the Kern County Board of
Supervisors adopted a similar fee program on April 6, 1992. The fee is collected at
the building permit stage and the amount of the fee is directly related to the
individual project's traffic generation potential. A portion of these funds is
allocated to serve as the Local Match for the Thomas Roads Improvement
Program.
TDF TRIP Local Match Fund – To account for the Traffic Impact Fees which are used
to meet local match requirements for Federal resources specific to Thomas Roads
Improvement Program.

FY 2017-18 Adopted CIP Budget - Letter of Transmittal
July 1, 2017
An itemized listing of projects, as well as projects included in the five-year plan, is
included for your review. This listing identifies the funding source and adopted
budget for each project included in the five-year plan. Funding may come from
various sources, including, but not limited to: grants, taxes, user fees, bond issues,
transfers from other funds, or assessments. Many of the capital projects are
possible because staff has been successful in obtaining grants and other
specialized funds that would not ordinarily be available or used for ongoing
operations. The five-year CIP Plan provides the City Council with information that
allows the flexibility to address changing priorities as the community grows.
This memorandum places emphases on projects with a budget of $100,000 or
greater organized by Department.

Community Development Building Rehabilitation – This $25,000 project provides
the final funding needed to complete the rehabilitation of the Community
Development building located at 1715 Chester Ave. Previous year capital
funding allowed for the remodel of the first floor lobby and permit counter areas.
The project will allow for the completion of the first floor conference room and
auxiliary spaces. These areas will be utilized by staff for meetings, hearings and
other gatherings. Currently, the conference room space within the building is
limited to other floors not immediately accessible by the public.
Finance Department

Honorable Mayor and City Council
FY 2017-18 Adopted CIP Budget - Letter of Transmittal
July 1, 2017
Pedestrian Countdown Timers, Northwest and Southwest – Two pedestrian
countdown timers projects are authorized for FY 2017-18. Each of these projects
will install pedestrian countdown timers at various signalized intersections located
throughout Northwest and Southwest Bakersfield. A total of $335,600 is
programmed for these projects. Funding for these projects includes $302,040 of
federal funds, with $33,560 of Capital Outlay funds providing the local match.
Gas Tax Fund
Resurfacing Various Streets – This $4 million project will continue the City Council
priority goal to fund street rehabilitation and resurfacing. Funds will be used to
repave and resurface asphalt pavement on city streets. Construction will be
performed by City staff. An additional $1 million is budgeted within the Gas Tax
Fund for this project.
Capital Outlay Fund
Police Firing Range Remodel - This $1.2 million project will upgrade the Bakersfield
Police Department firing range located at Truxtun Avenue just west of Oak Street
with modernized infrastructure and facilities. Staff is currently working toward
finalizing design of the facility. The funding for this project will come from seized
asset trust funds and Capital Outlay Funds.
Resurfacing Various Streets – This $1 million project will continue the City Council
priority goal to fund street rehabilitation and resurfacing. Funds will be used to
repave and resurface asphalt pavement on city streets. Construction will be
performed by City staff. An additional $4 million is budgeted within the Gas Tax
Fund for this project.
Ice Chiller Replacement at Rabobank Arena – This project will replace the ice
chiller at the Rabobank Arena. Replacement of the ice chiller at the Arena is
critical to ensure that ice-related events such as Condors games and Disney on
Ice are not affected. Emergency repairs completed in FY 2013-14 were
estimated to last five to seven years; however, since the repairs were made, the
chiller has had two major leaks and several minor leaks. Additionally, the existing
system utilizes R22 refrigerant, which will be phased out by the Environmental
Protection Agency in 2020. As a result, the cost of R22 is anticipated to triple in
the next few years and will be difficult to acquire. If still available, the cost to
replenish R22 refrigerant for the entire system will exceed $100,000 in the next
three years. Due to high demand, there is currently a three- year waiting list to
have the chiller system replaced. Because of the critical nature of this project,
245
Honorable Mayor and City Council
FY 2017-18 Adopted CIP Budget - Letter of Transmittal
July 1, 2017
staff budgeted $1 million for the project.
Upgrade Rabobank Arena HVAC System – $180,000 is requested to upgrade the
Rabobank Arena’s entire HVAC control system. Replacement parts for the existing
system are obsolete, as they are no longer manufactured; repairs are currently
made with used parts – if available. If system components fail and replacement
parts are not readily available, automated control of the unit would be lost. A
system failure could result in losing temperature and air balance control of
multiple suites and/or to the entire building, resulting in complete shutdown of the
system. Loss of automated control would affect scheduled events and will lead
to HVAC equipment damage.
Streetlight Wood Pole Testing/Inspection – During the recent storms, staff noted
an increase in wood street light pole issues. This multi-year project provides
funding for the inspection, testing, treatment, and, if necessary, reinforcement of
approximately 2,300 decayed wooden streetlight poles within City limits.
Replacements for wooden streetlight poles will need to be budgeted separately.
A total of $31,000 in funding is programmed for FY 2017-18.
Replace Traffic Control Cabinets – This multi-year project will replace 40 traffic
signal cabinets at various intersections throughout the city. Existing cabinets are
over 30 years old; as a result, the cabinets’ steel exterior is deteriorating, and
replacement parts are no longer readily available. The FY 2017-18 budget of
$60,000 will replace ten cabinets. The five-year CIP Plan proposes $60,000 annually
for the subsequent three years.
City of Bakersfield Animal Care Facility Miscellaneous Improvements – This $30,000
project will facilitate the need to perform unforeseen, miscellaneous
improvements to the City’s Animal Control Center that may arise throughout the
course of the year. $30,000 is programmed for FY 2017-18.
ADA Transition Plan – This multi-phase project is consistent with the City’s ADA
Transition Plan, and will fund priority ADA improvements. A total of $25,000 in
funding for ADA improvements is programmed for FY 2017-18.
Median Improvements on California Avenue from Oak Street to ‘G’ Street – With
California Avenue scheduled for reconstruction, this project presents the
opportunity to rehabilitate the green asphalt surface of the California Avenue
median island and enhance the aesthetics of the corridor. $284,000 is
programmed for FY 2017-18.
Rabobank Arena Miscellaneous Improvements – This project will fund emergency
fixed plant or facility items–such as A/C chiller, ice-making compressor, HVAC fan
246
Honorable Mayor and City Council
FY 2017-18 Adopted CIP Budget - Letter of Transmittal
July 1, 2017
or motor, fire sprinkler, plumbing leak, etc. that may have a catastrophic failure
during the fiscal year. $100,000 is programmed for FY 2017-18.
Re-Epoxy Kennel ‘E’ – City of Bakersfield Animal Care Facility – The concrete for
the kennels in Kennel ‘E’ at the CBACC is lifting and crackling, making it difficult
to sanitize the area. This project consists of coating the kennel floor and walls with
an antimicrobial epoxy, which reduces the animals’ exposure to disease, meets
the Target Zero audit recommendation, and allows staff to easily sanitize the
kennels daily. Kennel ‘E’ was not epoxied during the facility upgrade project in
2013. Authorized funding for this project totals $38,000.
City Facilities Miscellaneous Improvements – This project will fund emergency fixed
plant or facility items (such as plumbing, roof damage, A/C chiller, compressor,
and HVAC motor improvements) that may have a catastrophic failure during
the fiscal year. $25,000 is programmed for FY 2017-18.
Parking Garage Elevator Upgrade - This $136,000 project will upgrade the elevator
at the 18th and Eye Street parking garage to the current industry standards. The
existing elevator is over 30 years old. Due to its age, it requires continual
maintenance and parts are not readily available.
Westside Police Substation Parking Lot Expansion – This $250,000 project will
expand the existing parking lot at the west side police department substation to
allow for additional employee and visitor parking. Additional parking is necessary
due to increased staffing at the station.
Autoscope Traffic Signal Cameras – This $180,000 project will replace the
remaining vehicle detection systems at 40 signalized intersections with an
updated system. The existing 2020 autoscope camera computers and vehicle
detection cameras will no longer have parts, service, or software support from the
manufacturer, which may result in traffic signal detection failures without
replacement. This is the last phase needed to complete the upgrades at all
intersections.
Transportation Development Fund (TDF)
The FY 2017-18 budget includes $2,795,700 of Transportation Development funds
for various CIP projects. Funded projects, in priority order, are as follows:
Local match requirement for federal project - $71,700 provides for the local
match requirement for the predominantly federally funded new traffic signal at

July 1, 2017
McKee Road and Stine Road, which was previously summarized within the ISTEA
section of this transmittal.
Street Improvements on Stine Road – This $1,105,000 multi-year project will widen
Stine Road between Ryzona Drive and Hosking Avenue/McCutchen Road,
improving the overall flow of vehicle and pedestrian traffic. This road widening will
also improve the flow of traffic to Ridgeview High School. Funds for design and
right-of-way have been budgeted in previous years. Staff is currently working with
PG&E regarding rule 20A.
Street Improvements on College Avenue West of Fairfax Road – This $618,000
project will fund widening of the roadway on College Avenue and construction
of street improvements. Street improvements will alleviate flooding and erosion of
soil occurring during rain events on the north side of College Avenue, adjacent to
East Niles Water District, and will facilitate a safe walk-path for pedestrians. In
accordance with a previous agreement with the City, East Niles Water District has
relocated their water tank facilities to accommodate future street widening done
by the City.
Westside Parkway West Beltway Right-of-Way – Funding for this $413,000 project
will cover the costs of acquiring right-of-way that has been reserved by a
developer; this includes costs for legal documentation and the actual purchase
of the real property. It is necessary to construct the full interchange at the
intersection of the Westside Parkway and the West Beltway in accordance with
the specific plan line adopted for the interchange by the City Council.
New Traffic Signal on Panama Lane at Mountain Ridge Drive/Golden Gate Drive
– This $292,000 project will install a new traffic signal on Panama Lane at Mountain
Ridge Drive and Golden Gate Drive, as established by Federal and State
requirements. The signal installation will provide right-of-way control for the safe
and orderly flow of public traffic, and will provide interconnect along Panama
Lane.
New Traffic Signal on Hosking Avenue and Hughes Lane – This $296,000 project will
install a new traffic signal at the intersection of Hosking Avenue and Hughes Lane,
as established by Federal and State requirements. The signal installation will
provide right-of- way control for the safe and orderly flow of public traffic, and will
also provide interconnect on Hosking Avenue.
Sewer Funds (Plants Nos. 2 And 3)
Wastewater staff has made significant progress in reducing the CIP backlog. The
248
Honorable Mayor and City Council
FY 2017-18 Adopted CIP Budget - Letter of Transmittal
July 1, 2017
CIP projects programmed for the Wastewater Division continue to focus on
preventative maintenance for the complex treatment plants’ infrastructure. With
a focus on preventative maintenance, the probability of more costly repairs is
mitigated. The FY 2017-18 CIP budget totals $3,047,000 as summarized below.
Funded projects, in priority order, are as follows:
Both Treatment Plants
Wastewater Treatment Plants Miscellaneous Improvements – This project allocates $275,000 to each treatment plant for unanticipated improvements (for a total of $550,000). Continuous treatment of wastewater year-round causes wastewater treatment facilities to wear down. Facilities such as clarifiers, headworks, digesters, pump stations, trickling filters, various buildings, major and
minor pieces of equipment, pipes and other structures are all subject to erosion, corrosion, daily operational wear-and-tear, breakdowns and general failures.
These projects will make it possible to do periodic, unforeseen, capital improvements and repairs to the wastewater treatment facilities, prevent
interruptions of treatment, and ensure that the facilities are functional, efficient, and safe.
Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 2
Trickling Filter Pump Station Rehabilitation – The trickling pump station has a total
of four recirculation pumps and four transfer pumps that have been in service
since 1999 and are in need of extensive maintenance. Work has already begun
on two recirculation pumps. $240,000 of funding is requested for FY 2017-18 to
rehabilitate two transfer pumps and two recirculation pumps during FY 2017-18.
The remaining two transfer pumps are proposed to be rehabilitated during FY
2018-19.
Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) for Influent Pumps – The trickling filter
recirculation station has four recirculation pumps and four transfer pumps that are
controlled by Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs), which minimize the amount of
electricity used to power the pumps. At 20 years old, each VFD is approaching
the end of its useful life and requires replacement, as replacement parts are now
obsolete. $100,000 of funding is programmed for FY 2017-18 will replace two of
eight VFDs for this multi-year project.
Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3
Replace Digester Mixer Pump – Additional funding of $460,000 is requested to
replace obsolete mixing pumps. The current budget includes $402,700 of funding
for this project. Existing pumps are fifteen years old and replacement parts are
249

no longer available. Current cost estimates exceed available funding because
pump drawings indicate that intake and discharge locations for new pumps are
not compatible with the existing pumps. In order to install new pumps, piping
needs to be extensively reconfigured, a new equipment pedestal built, and
electrical modifications will also need to be made.
Primary Clarifier Rehabilitation – Rehabilitation of clarifiers 1-4 was completed in
FY 2015-16. This $500,000 project will rehabilitate primary clarifiers 6 and 8.
Rehabilitation of the clarifiers includes repairing, replacing, and recoating
concrete and metal surfaces; rebuilding the clarifier drives; replacing skimmer
arms; and regrading the launder channels. Rehabilitation of primary clarifiers 5
and 7 will be proposed in FY 2018-19.
Cloth Media Filter Replacement – This $120,000 project will replace the cloth
media filter for the tertiary treatment system. The filter cloth membrane typically
has a life span of five to six years. The current filter has been online for eight years
and is showing signs of deterioration.
Aeration Basin Rehabilitation – This multi-year project will provide rehabilitation to
six aeration basins over a period of six years. Project includes grit removal and
diffuser replacement. $100,000 is programmed for 2017-18 to rehabilitate one of
the six aeration basins.
Return Activated Sludge (RAS) Pump – $40,000 is requested to rehabilitate RAS
pump No.4. There are five RAS pumps that are critical to the activated sludge
process. Over time, each pump needs to be pulled, inspected, and necessary
repairs made to ensure proper operation. The five-year CIP Plan also includes
$40,000 of proposed funding for FY 2018-19.
Sanitary Sewer and Storm Improvements
Storm Lift Station at Tevis Ranch Sump – The Tevis Ranch sump is interconnected
to four sumps within the same area, most of which do not percolate well. Through
an agreement with Kern Delta, the City will install a pump station and outlet
structure (outlet structure completed in FY 2016-17) to drain storm runoff form the
Tevis Ranch sump into the Buena Vista Canal. Design of this lift station has been
completed. The $535,000 of funding is for project construction.
Sewer Lift Station Rehabilitation at the SE Corner of Hosking Avenue and Akers
Road – This project will provide minor rehabilitation to the lift station at the
southeast corner of Hosking Avenue and Akers Road to prolong the life of
the lift station. This $191,000 rehabilitation project includes lining the wet well,
250
Honorable Mayor and City Council
FY 2017-18 Adopted CIP Budget - Letter of Transmittal
July 1, 2017
replacing a section of discharge pipe that is corroded, installing safety platforms,
and installing a perimeter fence.
Storm Lift Station Rehabilitation at the Police Pistol Range – This project will provide
the storm drain lift station at the Police pistol range with new submersible pumps,
discharge pipes, outlet structure, and updates to lighting and safety walkway.
Retrofitting this aging lift station will improve performance and eliminate costly
maintenance issues. This project was selected to receive funding through CalOES
for back-up generators; however, the actual lift station rehabilitation is not eligible
for grant funding. Therefore, staff recommended funding this project through
sewer enterprise funds. This storm lift station is critical to downtown drainage.
Programmed funding for FY 2017-18 of $106,000 will fund design of the project.
The five-year CIP plan includes $770,000 of funding for FY 2018-19.
Storm Lift Station on Talisman Drive – This project will install a pump station at the
sump on Kristina Court, south of Talisman Drive. Currently, the sump has poor
percolation, causing lack of proper stormwater drainage, causing stormwater to
back-up into the street and flood the area. Remedies, repairs, and maintenance
to this sump require excessive staff time; for this reason, staff recommended to
convert the sump into a detention basin with a pump station that will direct the
stormwater to a sump with better percolation. Installation of the pump station will
properly drain the sump and alleviate flooding. Funding for FY 2017-18 of $105,000
will fund design of the project. The construction phase includes $871,000 of
proposed funding for FY 2018-19.
Refuse Collection Fund
Two projects, totaling $350,000, are programmed for FY 2017-18 within the Refuse
Collection Fund. Projects are as follows:
Compost Screening System – Compost made from green waste has been
screened and sold to farmers at the Green Waste Facility since 1995. State
regulations from 2015 require higher compost screening standards to be phased
in by 2018. The current screen system must be expanded to meet the new
standard. This $300,000 project will economically repurpose an existing screen
machine and add new pre-screen and post- screen machinery to expand the
system. Under the County Green Waste Agreement, Kern County will provide
funding for approximately 55% of the project.
Green Waste Facility Pavement Resurfacing – The pavement at the main public
unloading zone at the Green Waste Facility is deteriorating after 20 years.
Resurfacing the pavement at this time will eliminate the need for a complete
251

reconstruction in the future. Kern County, through the County Green Waste
Agreement, will provide about 55% of this project’s budget of $50,000.
Aviation Fund
Three projects within the Aviation Fund are programmed for FY 2017-18, totaling
$355,000.
Airport Hangar Doors Rehabilitation – This $30,000 project will fund the repair or
replacement of hangar doors, as needed. Most of the hangar doors at the Airport
are at least 35 years old, and many do not open properly. This on-going multi-year
project will fund the rehabilitation of four hangar doors each year.
Airport Layout Plan (ALP) Update/AIGS – This $300,000 project will update the
Airport Layout Plan, which was last updated in 2008, and will also prepare an
airport geographic information survey (AGIS) for the municipal airport.
Airport Miscellaneous Repairs – This $25,000 project will fund unforeseen hangar
and facility repairs at the Airport.
Equipment Management Fund
Backup Generator, Beach Park and Pistol Range – The City Manager’s Office
submitted a grant application with the California Office of Emergency Services
for two backup generators for these two storm drain lift stations. The $415,000
requested for FY 2017-18 includes $311,500 of grant funding with the remaining
$103,500 local match requirement funded by the Sewer Enterprise Fund. These
two lift stations are critical to downtown drainage issues during storm events.
Parking Garage Fund
Automation Improvements to Parking Garage – Currently, the Eye Street
entrance to the parking garage can only be accessed by long-term users.
Improvements to both the gate and ticketing mechanisms are required to allow
daily users the ability to enter the parking garage from the Eye Street entrance.
Funding for this project totals $45,500 in FY 2017-18.
Bikeway/Pedestrian Fund (TDA Article 3)
Transportation Development Act (TDA) Article 3 funds provide 100% of the funding
for one bike lane improvement project for FY 2017-18.

Bakersfield College Area Bike Lane/Routes – This $107,450 project will provide
much needed bike lanes/routes adjacent to Bakersfield College. Installation of
new bike lanes will benefit seven schools surrounding the Bakersfield College
Campus. This project is funded through a competitive TDA grant that is
administered by Kern COG.
Water Resources Department
Both Water Funds
Water Resources Building Expansion - The Water Resources Department's building
at 1000 Buena Vista Rd was constructed in 1991. As part of the original architect's
design, the vacant quadrant between the two buildings allows for design and
construction of a future facility. Additional space is needed due to incremental
increases in staffing levels since the facility opened. The $700,000 project provides
for a new 2,350 square foot building and the reconstruction of the existing Spanish
clay roof tiles, and would provide ADA upgrades to the existing buildings.
Domestic Water Fund
Service Connection Replacement Program - $600,000 is budgeted in FY 2017-18
for continued replacement of domestic water service connections. By replacing
service connections when the second water leak occurs, it reduces the ongoing
costs of removing and replacing sidewalks, pavement or other infrastructure in
the same area over the long term. Over the past few years, the system has
averaged approximately 160 service connection replacements per year on the
system.
Wellhead Facilities Upgrade - Several projects are required to improve water
production and treatment operations at various well sites within the system. This
$400,000 project will provide for continued installation of granular activated
treatment and arsenic treatment systems throughout the City’s system.
Agricultural Water Fund
Concrete Panel Replacement – This $250,000 project will replace broken or
damaged concrete canal panels in the Carrier and Kern River Canals.
Recreation and Parks Department
Park development projects continue to focus on the two regional sports
complexes.

Sports Village Phase IV - $1.3 million is budgeted for the continuation of the build
out of the Bakersfield Sports Village. Phase IV will include will include four
regulation football fields, two parking lots and extension of Play Fair Drive.
Mesa Marin Sports Complex Phase II – An additional $335,000 is programmed to
continue the expansion of the regional park in northeast Bakersfield. Phase II is
currently under construction and will include a new wet playground, as well as
additional picnic areas and walking paths. The additional funding will be utilized
for future amenities to be identified.
Jastro Park Shade and Accessibility Upgrades – This $180,000 project will install
shade structure over the existing picnic area and will provide ADA improvements
throughout the park site.
Lowell and Stiern Parks Shade and Accessibility Improvements – Two CDBG parks
projects totaling $271,000 will provide for shade structures and accessibility
improvements at Stiern and Lowell Parks.
Summary
Staff is pleased to present the CIP budget five-year plan for 2017-2022, and the
adopted FY 2017-18 CIP budget. The projects contained within these budgets
represent a wide range of improvements to the City’s infrastructure that will
ensure the sustainability of City facilities, enhance the aesthetics of the
community, and provide safety to residents.
Thank you to Department Heads, Business Managers, Budget Managers and
support staff members that make the development of this plan possible. Thanks
also to the staff members who work each day to implement and monitor the
progression of these important projects. Finally, thank you to the City Council for
your leadership and vision in reviewing and setting direction for the CIP.

CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
FISCAL YEAR 2017-18
CITY BACKGROUND AND FISCAL OVERVIEW
History
Bakersfield was settled in 1858 by a handful of families who had trekked northward
through the EL Tejon Pass seeking home sites rather than gold. The town was
named by an early settler, Colonel Thomas Baker, who invited the weary travelers
through the valley to rest overnight. These travelers would plan in advance to
meet and rest in Colonel Baker’s “field”. Baker formally laid out the town in 1869,
and within two years the city had a telegraph office, two stores, a newspaper, two
boarding houses, one doctor, a wagon shop, one attorney, a saloon, and fifty
school pupils. The Rabobank Arena, Theater and Convention Center, as well as
the Centennial Plaza community park, rests on part of Colonel Baker’s original field.
The City of Bakersfield was first incorporated in 1873, and in the same year, the
County seat was moved from the booming little town of Havilah to Bakersfield.
Three years later, the town decided to disincorporate. It was not until 1898 that the
community incorporated again. In 1910, the City of Kern, formerly the Town of
Sumner (East Bakersfield), annexed to the City of Bakersfield.
Government
In 1915, the citizens of the City adopted a charter calling for the city to operate
under the council-manager form of government. This charter provides that the
governing body of the city shall be the City Council composed of seven members,
one to be elected from each of the seven wards of the city for four-year,
overlapping terms, with a Mayor elected from the Council. In 1957, the charter
was amended to elect a Mayor at large.
Bakersfield was one of the first cities in the United States to adopt the council-
manager form of government. This type of government provides that the City
Council adopts ordinances; appoints members of various committees, boards, and
commissions; and, establishes general policies for the City. Final determination of
all City policies rests with the seven members of the City Council. The Council also
appoints a city manager to implement Council policies.
Bakersfield offers a full range of City services including:
• Fire and Police Protection
• Streets and Infrastructure Maintenance
• Planning and Community Development
284
• Parks and Recreation Services
• Water Utility
• Municipal Airpark - General Aviation
• Refuse Collection
• Wastewater Treatment
Location
The City of Bakersfield, population 383,512 (as of January 1, 2017) is located
approximately 116 miles north of Los Angeles in the southern San Joaquin Valley.
Major highways, including Interstate 5 and State Route 99, link the City with a major
trade corridor. Other major cities and attractions nearby to Bakersfield are: Las
Vegas (284 miles), Sacramento (281 miles), San Diego (235 miles), San Francisco
(286 miles), Santa Barbara (151 miles), Sequoia National Park (129 miles), and
Yosemite National Park (190 miles).
As the 9th largest city in California, Bakersfield is the regional center for industry,
government, transportation, retail trade, medical services and oil field operations.
Quality of Life
The City offers a wide range of urban amenities, affordable housing and proximity
to many regional attractions. Rabobank Arena is the largest entertainment
complex in the San Joaquin Valley and Bakersfield is home to many entertainment
and special events, including: Bakersfield Condors of the American Hockey
League and the CIF State Wrestling Championships, as well as many conferences,
fairs, museums, music festivals, theaters and heritage festivals.
The City maintains 59 parks, for a total of 769 acres, including a 32-mile class I multi-
use path. Regional outdoor resources offer residents and visitors year-round
recreation opportunities including, boating, white water rafting, fishing, hiking, golf,
camping, water skiing, and skydiving.
The City is home to Bakersfield College and California State University – Bakersfield,
attracting a combined total of nearly 30,000 students from Bakersfield and beyond
to pursue two-year, four-year and graduate degree programs.
For those looking to travel to and from Bakersfield, there are several options such
as Meadows Field (airport), Amtrak (train), and GreyHound (bus).
285
FACTORS AFFECTING FINANCIAL CONDITION
Local Economy and Local Budget Issues – The City of Bakersfield is recovering in
certain areas of the local economy, but continues to be impacted by the
depressed oil industry. General Fund property tax revenues grew by 6.1% in fiscal
year 2015-16 and are estimated to increase by an additional 3% in fiscal year
2016-17. However, the recovery of sales tax revenue in the Bakersfield area has
been stifled by dramatic reductions in oil prices and associated oil drilling
activity. Sales tax revenues were basically flat (0.6% increase) in fiscal year 2015-
16 and are expected to decrease by about 5.0% in fiscal year 2016-17.
While the local economic environment continues to show some signs of
recovery with improvement in property values and continued building activity, it
is hampered by the depressed oil prices and lack of drilling activity in the area.
The City Council (the Council) continues to support a conservative approach in
adopting our budget for 2016-17. The Councilhas maintained a $12,800,000 cash
basis reserve fund along with a $3,200,000 facilities reserve fund to provide a
level of protection for the City. The Council continued to fund the City’s Other
Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) costs for retiree medical benefits, maintaining
the City of Bakersfield’s position as one of the few entities in California that are
making serious progress toward fully funding this long-term obligation.
Retirement costs are projected to escalate for all employee groups over the
next several years as a result of California Public Employees’ Retirement System’s
(CalPERS) recent changes to its actuarial methodology and more significantly,
its lower than projected earnings over the past two years. CalPERS approved a
multi-year smoothing method to spread the rate increases associated with
moving from a rolling 30 year amortization period to a fixed 30 year amortization
period. Rates are expected to rise steadily for the next 5 years as this change is
fully implemented. The methodology change and resulting rate increases will
have a significant impact on retirement costs for the City. CalPERS rates are
based on projected earnings on its portfolio of investments of 7.5% per year.
Actual CalPERS earnings over the past two years have been 2.4% and 0.6%,
respectively. CalPERS estimates the impact of these returns will increase our
annual retirement benefit costs by approximately $3 million to $5 million per year
for the next five to seven years.
Long Term Financial Planning – The City of Bakersfield continues to look forward
to our long-term financial and operating needs. The recent expansion of our
Wastewater Treatment Plant on the west side of town will provide capacity for
any future growth for many years. The City continues to monitor departmental
needs for satellite storage and staging areas for Public Works and Parks
operations. As the City continues to grow both in population and in geographic
area, we must continuously evaluate opportunities to become more efficient
and effective in our efforts to serve our community.
286
Accounting System and Internal Controls – The City's accounting system is
organized and operated on a fund basis. Each fund is a distinct self-balancing
accounting entity. The City's accounting records for general governmental
operations are maintained on a modified accrual basis, whereby revenues are
recognized when measurable and available and expenditures are recognized
when materials and services are received. Accounting records for the enterprise
and internal services funds are recorded on an accrual basis, whereby revenues
are recognized when earned and expenses are recognized when incurred.
In developing and evaluating the City's accounting system, consideration is
given to the adequacy of internal accounting controls. Internal accounting
controls are designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance
regarding: (1) the safeguarding of assets against loss from unauthorized use or
disposition and (2) the reliability of financial records for preparing financial
statements and maintaining accountability for assets. The concept of
reasonable assurance recognizes that: (a) the cost of a control should not
exceed the benefits likely to be derived and (b) the evaluation of costs and
benefits requires estimates and judgments by management.
All internal control evaluations occur within the above framework. We believe
that the City's internal accounting controls adequately safeguard assets and
provide reasonable assurance of proper recording of financial transactions.
However, the City recognizes that even sound internal controls have their
inherent limitations. Internal controls are reviewed to ensure that the City’s
operating policies and procedures are being adhered to and that the controls
are adequate to ensure accurate and reliable financial reporting and to
safeguard the City’s assets.
Balanced Budget – The City of Bakersfield annually adopts a balanced budget
on a fiscal year basis. A balanced budget means there are sufficient revenues
and unreserved fund balances appropriated to fund all City of Bakersfield
Operating, Capital Improvement, Debt Services and Interfund Transfers for the
fiscal year beginning July 1 and ending June 30.
Fund Balance – Uncommitted resources are available for spending at the
government’s discretion (unreserved fund balance). The focus of the City of
Bakersfield’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows,
outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in
assessing the City of Bakersfield’s financing requirements. In particular,
unreserved fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government’s net
resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.
Reserved Fund Balance – The remainder of fund balance is “reserved” to
indicate that it is not available for new spending because it has already been
287
committed: 1) to liquidated contracts and purchase orders of the prior period;
2) to be set aside as a cash basis reserve; 3) to pay debt service; or, 4) for a
variety of other restricted purposes.
Supplemental Budgetary Information – Through the budget process the City
Council sets the direction of the City, allocates its resources and establishes its
priorities. The annual budget assures the efficient and effective use of the City’s
economic resources, as well as establishing that the highest priority objectives
are accomplished. Budgets are adopted for all governmental fund types and
are prepared on a basis consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (GAAP).
The annual budget serves from July 1 to June 30, and is a vehicle that
accurately and openly communicates these priorities to the community,
businesses, vendors, employees and other public agencies. Additionally, it
establishes the foundation of effective financial planning by providing resource
planning, performance measures and controls that permit the evaluation and
adjustment of the City’s performance.
The City’s budget is prepared and based on four expenditure categories:
personnel, supplies and services, minor capital outlay, and capital improvement
programs. The first three listed are considered operational in nature and known
as recurring costs. Capital Improvement Projects are asset acquisition, facilities,
systems and infrastructure improvement, typically over $50,000, and/or those
items “outside” of the normal operational budget. These are known as one-time
costs or significant non-routine capital expenditures.
FUND STRUCTURE
The City collects and records revenue and expenditures within Governmental
Activities and Business-Type Activities.
Governmental Activities – Most of the City’s basic services are reported in this
category, including General Government, Police, Fire, Public Works, Parks,
Recreation, and Community Development. These activities are generally
financed by property and sales taxes, user fees, interest income, franchise fees,
and state and federal shared revenues and grants.
Business-Type Activities – The City charges a fee to customers to cover all or
most of the cost of certain services it provides. The City’s Water system,
Wastewater system, Refuse Collection system, Municipal Airport, and Off-Street
Parking activities are reported in this category.
The Governmental Funds include the General Fund, Special Revenue, Debt
Service and Capital Projects funds. All funding sources are kept separate for
288
both reporting and use of the money. The General Fund is where most City
services are funded that are not required to be segregated.
State law and bond covenants require some funds to be established. However,
management establishes many other funds to help it control and manage
money for particular purposes, or to show that it is meeting legal responsibilities
for using certain taxes, grants, and other money.
Governmental Funds – Most of the City’s basic services are reported in
governmental funds, which focus on how money flows into and out of those
funds and the balances left at year-end that are available for spending. These
funds are reported using an accounting method called modified-accrual
accounting, which measures cash and all other financial assets that can readily
be converted to cash. The Governmental fund statements provide a detailed
short-term view of the City’s general government operations and the basic
services it provides. Governmental fund information helps determine whether
there are more or fewer financial resources that can be spent in the near future
to finance the City’s programs.
Proprietary Funds – When the City charges customers for the services it provides,
whether to outside customers or to other units of the City, these services are
generally reported in Proprietary funds. Proprietary funds are reported in the
same way that all activities are reported in the Statement of Net Assets and the
Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Charges in Fund Net Assets. In fact, the
City’s Enterprise Funds are the same as the Business-Type activities reported in
the Government-wide statements, but provide more detail and additional
information such as cash flows, for Proprietary funds. The City uses Internal
Service Funds (the other component of Proprietary funds) to report activities that
provide supplies and services for the City’s other programs and activities—such
as the City’s Self-Insurance and Equipment Management Funds.
Fiduciary Funds – The City is the trustee, or fiduciary, for certain funds held on
behalf of various third parties. The City’s fiduciary activities are reported in
separate Statements of Fiduciary Net Assets. The City excludes these activities
from its other financial statements because the City cannot use these assets to
finance its operations. The City is responsible for ensuring that the assets
reported in these funds are used for their intended purposes.
Budget Process – The budget process begins as a team effort in January of each
year, starting with an annual strategic planning meeting called the Budget
Kickoff. Individual departments then use projected revenue assumptions based
on trend analysis data from the past three years, current economic
circumstances, including impacts of the State budget, and other external
factors to recommend the next fiscal year’s objectives. The City Manager’s
Office and the Finance Department review all budget proposals and revenue
289
assumptions as well as all current financial obligations before preparing the
document that is proposed to the City Council. The City Council reviews the
Proposed Budget through a series of public workshops and meetings, and the
final adoption of the budget is normally scheduled for the second City Council
meeting in June.
Budgetary Controls – The objective of these budgetary controls is to ensure
compliance with legal provisions embodied in the annual appropriated budget
approved by the City Council. Project length financial plans are adopted for the
capital projects funds. The level of budgetary control is established at the fund
level. The City also maintains an encumbrance accounting system as one
technique of accomplishing budgetary control. Unencumbered amounts lapse
at year end. However, encumbrances and certain capital projects are re-
appropriated as part of the following year's budget. The FY 2017-18 City of
Bakersfield appropriation limit established as required by state statute was
$388,695,397
Fee and Service Charge Revenue/Cost Comparison System – The City of
Bakersfield maintains a fee and service charge revenue/cost comparison
system for the recovery of costs reasonably borne in providing regulation,
products, or services as enumerated in Section 3.70.030 of the Bakersfield
Municipal Code. The intent of the City Council for the above purpose is to
establish a “fee for service” system. Fees and charges are effectuated through
the City Council’s adoption of annual resolution to ensure that fees are adjusted
appropriately to recover the costs of providing regulation, products, or services.
Cash Management – The City maintains a cash and investment pool that is
available for use by all funds, except the Fire Pension Trust Fund. Each fund
type's portion of this pool is displayed on the combined balance sheet as cash
and short-term investments. The deposits and investments of the fire pension trust
fund are held separately from other City funds.
Cash Basis Reserve – The City budget provides for a cash basis reserve in order
to finance operations between July 1 and the date of receipt of the first
installment of property taxes. The cash basis reserve also provides short-term
interfund loans for funds on a reimbursable basis.
Investment Policy – The City Council has adopted an investment policy with a
goal to minimize credit and market risks while maintaining a competitive yield on
its portfolio. The City is also governed by State statutes authorizing the City to
invest in bonds or other evidences of indebtedness of the U. S. Government or
any of its agencies and instrumentalities, repurchase agreements, and banker’s
acceptances. The pension trust investments are administered separately under
Municipal Code Section 2.92, which is within state guidelines.
290
The City applies Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement Number
31, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Certain Investments and for External
Investment Pools. This statement generally requires that investments be reported
at their fair market value and that all changes in fair value be reflected in
income of the period in which they occur.
Statutes authorize the City to invest in obligations of the U.S. Treasury, agencies
and instrumentalities, commercial paper, bankers’ acceptances, repurchase
agreements, money market funds and the State Treasurer’s investment pool.
The City’s Pension Trust Fund is also authorized to invest in corporate bonds rated
A or better by a national rating system generally recognized and used by banks
and investment brokers in the United States.
Investments are comprised of obligations of the U.S. Treasury, agencies and
instrumentalities, cash, time certificates of deposit, mutual funds, bankers’
acceptances, money market accounts and deposits in the State of California
Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), and are stated at fair value. The fair
value of the City’s position in LAIF approximates the value of the pool shares.
The LAIF has oversight by the Local Investment Advisory Board. The LAIF Board
consists of five members as designated by Statute. The Chairman is the State
Treasurer, or his designated representative. Two members qualified by training
and experience in the field of investment of finance, and two members who are
treasurer’s, finance or fiscal officers, or business managers employed by any
County, City, or local district or municipal corporation of this state are appointed
by the State Treasurer. The term of each appointment is two years, or at the
pleasure of the appointing authority.
Long-Term Debt ─ Legislation does not mandate a debt limit for the City of
Bakersfield.At the end of FY 2015-16, the City had a total debt outstanding of
$210.8 million. The City’s total debt decreased by a net amount of $6.7 million
during the current fiscal year. Of that amount $1.7 million is the result of normal
debt maturities with the remaining $5.0 million due to a partial redemption
payment on the Wastewater Revenue Refunding Bonds Series 2012A.
Certificates of Participation issued by the City via the former Redevelopment
Agency in 2006 carry a Reserve Fund Surety from Ambac Assurance Company
(Ambac). Moody’s Investor’s Service (Moody’s) rating on Ambac is currently
“Baa1”. The current underlying rating on the Certificates of Participation has not
been revised (currently “A1”). Such reduced rating on the Certificates of
Participation reflects only the view of Moody’s, and any desired explanation of
the significance of such rating should be obtained from Moody’s. There is no
assurance that such rating will continue for any given period of time or that such
rating will not be revised or withdrawn by Moody’s if, in the judgment of
Moody’s, circumstances so warrant.
291
The 2012 Wastewater Revenue Bonds – Series A issued by the City in 2012, which
refinanced the 2007 Wastewater Revenue Bonds – Series B, has an “Aa2/VMIG1”
rating from Moody’s. There is no assurance that such rating will continue for any
given period of time or that such rating will not be revised or withdrawn by
Moody’s if, in the judgment of Moody’s, circumstances so warrant. The City did
not elect to establish a debt service reserve fund for this debt, but does carry a
Standby Bond Purchase Agreement with JP Morgan.
The 2015 Wastewater Revenue Bonds – Series A issued by the City in 2015, which
redeemed a majority of the 2007 Wastewater Revenue Bonds – Series A, has an
“Aa2” rating from Moody’s and an "AA" rating from Standard & Poors. There is
no assurance that such ratings will continue for any given period of time or that
such ratings will not be revised or withdrawn by the rating agencies if, in their
judgment, circumstances so warrant.
Debt Service Reserve – The reserve for debt service represents funds reserved for
the payment of general obligations of the City accounted for in the General
Long-Term Debt Account Group.
OTHER INFORMATION
Independent Audit – The City Charter requires an annual audit by independent
certified public accountants. The City Council also adopted a policy regarding
auditor rotation that encourages competitive bidding on a five year cycle. The
accounting firm of Brown Armstrong Accountancy Corporation was selected by
the City Council in 2012 to perform the annual audit for the 2011-12 fiscal year.
The 2015-16 year is the fifth year of the five year agreement with this firm. In
addition to meeting the requirements set forth in state statutes, the audit also
was designed to meet the requirements of the Federal Single Audit Act of 1984
and related Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform
Administrative Requirements, Costs Principles and Audit Requirements for
Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). The auditor’s report covers the basic
financial statements, including the notes to the financial statements, but their
opinion does not cover the combining and individual fund statements.
Awards – The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and
Canada (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Distinguished
Budget Presentation to the City of Bakersfield for its Budget for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2016, marking the 17th year Bakersfield has received the GFOA
certificate. The Distinguished Budget Presentation Award is a prestigious
national award recognizing conformance with the highest standards for
preparation of state and local government financial reports.
In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, a government unit must
publish an easily readable and efficiently organized budget document, whose
292
contents conform to program standards. Such reports must satisfy criteria as a
policy document, financial plan, operations guide, and communications
device. The City of Bakersfield’s Fiscal Year 2017-18 Final Budget document
continues to conform to the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award Program
requirements, and is being submitted to GFOA to determine its eligibility for
another certificate.
Open Budget Transparency Tool – The City has launched its Open Budget data
platform available at http://budget.bakersfieldcity.us. This tool is intended to be
utilized in conjunction with this document to provide the public at large with a
comprehensive and transparent overview of the City’s revenues and
expenditures.
The Open Budget application provides a visual, intuitive means of exploring and
analyzing the City's operating and capital budgets. The charts, graphs and
tables are interactive - allowing users to better understand how the City
allocates taxpayer dollars. Interactive charts and graphs allow users to “dig
down” into the budget, exploring how funds are allocated across City
departments, programs and capital improvement projects. Users can also
access the raw budget data that powers the visualizations, providing another
level of transparency.
The data contained with the platform is updated after each accounting period
closes, which generally occurs the first week of each month. Historical revenue
and expenditure data is available for each fiscal year going back to 2013. The
Open Budget platform continues the City’s commitment to providing open data
to residents, businesses and the community.

Operating Budget
The City of Bakersfield's Operating Budget is a planning document that mirrors
the City Council's established goals and policies. By providing service delivery
based on City Council Goals and Guiding Principles, City departments ensure
that the activities they undertake are those that are articulated by the City
Council, and are important to the community.
Since the Operating Budget implements Council Goals and Policies, it is only
natural that the budget document highlights specific program service
objectives and action statements that demonstrate how those goals and
policies will be realized. Annually, City departments develop action plans that
target progress toward or successful completion of Council goals.
While funding for departmental budgets is prepared using a line-item budget –
a budget that focuses on what is to be purchased – overall decisions and long-
range planning efforts are concentrated at the program level. This essentially
means that the City Council is looking at service delivery from the perspective of
providing viable, quality programs to the citizens of Bakersfield.
Structure of the Operating Budget
Within each department category is a hierarchy of what constitutes the
Operating Budget. This hierarchy, which is detailed below, provides a basis for
how programs are structured and service is delivered to the community.
Goal – Represents a long-term condition or end result. It describes a vision or
philosophy about major social and environmental concerns of the community.
Significant Budget Changes – Represents a major departure from historical
practice or treatment of a program or line item within a department’s budget.
Action Plan – Qualitatively or quantitatively identifies the service to be provided.
Action plans are specific in nature and directly correlate to achieving the results
of the department or division goal.
Service Level Indicators – Describe in specific and measurable terms the results a
program (within a particular division) is expected to achieve within a given time
frame. Service level indicators are derived from the Action Plan.
Expenditure Line Items – The smallest expenditure detail in department budgets.
294
Basis of Accounting and Budgeting
All governmental fund types, Agency Funds and the Discretely Presented
Component Unit are accounted for using the modified-accrual basis of
accounting. Under the modified-accrual basis, revenues are recognized when
they become measurable and available as net current assets. Taxpayer-
assessed gross receipts and sales taxes are considered “measurable” when in
the hands of intermediary collecting governments and are, therefore,
recognized as revenue at that time. Property taxes are recognized as revenue
in the fiscal year during which they are levied, adjusted for amounts considered
to be collectible more than 60 days beyond the fiscal year-end or ultimately
uncollectible.
Those revenues susceptible to accrual are property taxes, franchise taxes,
special assessments, licenses, interest revenue and charges for services. Sales
taxes collected and held by the state at year end on behalf of the government
also are recognized as revenue. Fines and permits are not susceptible to
accrual because generally they are not measurable until received in cash.
Expenditures are generally recognized under the modified-accrual basis of
accounting when the related fund liability is incurred. An exception is interest on
general long-term debt which is not accrued but is recorded when due.
Proceeds from issuance of long- term debt are recognized as other financing
sources when received, and repayments are recognized as expenditures when
due.
All proprietary fund types and Pension Trust Funds are accounted for using the
accrual basis of accounting. The revenues of these funds are recognized when
they are earned, and their expenses are recognized when they are incurred.
Unbilled service revenues, which are not significant, are not recognized as
revenues.
Budgets and Budgetary Accounting
The procedures established by the City Council in adopting the budgetary data
reflected in the financial statements are as follows:
1.Prior to June 1, the City Manager submits to the City Council a proposed
operating budget for the fiscal year commencing the following July 1. The
operating budget includes proposed expenditures and the means of
financing them.
2.Public hearings are conducted to obtain taxpayer comments.
295
3.Prior to July 1, the budget is legally enacted through passage of a
resolution.
4.Budgets are adopted for all governmental fund types and are prepared on
a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles.
5.The City Manager is authorized to transfer budgeted amounts between
departments within any fund and approve reductions of budgeted
amounts. Since expenditures may not exceed budgeted appropriations at
the fund level, any revisions that alter the total appropriations of any fund
are to be approved by the City Council. Projects budgeted within the fiscal
year but not yet completed can be reappropriated the following fiscal year
with City Manager approval. All other unencumbered appropriations lapse
at year-end. Encumbered amounts are reappropriated in the ensuing fiscal
year budget.
296
Investment Policy
The Investment Policy of the City of Bakersfield as adopted by Policy Resolution
No. 192-16, is intended to provide guidelines for the prudent investment of the
City of Bakersfield’s temporary idle cash, and outline the policies for maximizing
the efficiency of the City’s cash management system.
It is the policy of the City to invest public funds in a manner which will provide
safety of principal and at least a market rate of return while meeting the daily
cash flow demands of the City. Investments will conform to all statutes
governing the investment of public funds.
The primary goals of the investment policy are:
•To assure compliance with all Federal, State and Local laws governing the
investment of public funds under the control of the City Treasurer.
•To maintain the principal value of financial assets and ensure ample
liquidity to meet operating expenditures.
•Within the constraints of safety and liquidity, and within the parameters of
this Investment Policy generate a market rate of return.
The ultimate goal is to enhance the economic status of the City of Bakersfield
while protecting the safety of its financial assets.
297

City Budget Process
The City Budget Process as adopted by Policy Resolution No. 81-97 is intended to
provide guidelines for the preparation of the annual City budget whereby the
City Manager provides to the full City Council an overview of the City’s fiscal
position and the proposed budget for the upcoming fiscal year. Subsequently,
each department head presents an oral presentation of his/her department’s
proposed activities, programs and financial requirements. The City Council
considers and reviews the budget information as presented by the City
Manager and departments and adopts the budget no later than June 30th of
each year. The Council may at any time refer specific budget issues to the
Budget and Finance Committee as necessary.

discover, record, classify, summarize, and report information on the financial
position and the results of operations of a government or any of its funds, fund
types, or organizational components.
ACCRUAL BASIS OF ACCOUNTING − An accounting method that recognizes and
reports a financial transaction when it occurs, rather that when cash is paid or received.
ACTION PLAN – An action plan qualitatively or quantitatively identifies a service
to be provided. Action plans are specific in nature and directly correlate to
achieving the department goal.
ACTIVITY – A specific line of work performed by one or more governmental
components for accomplishing a function for which the government is
responsible.
ADOPTED BUDGET – A financial plan presented, reviewed and approved by the
governing body for the upcoming fiscal year.
ALLOCATION – (1) A portion of a lump-sum appropriation designated for specific
organization units and/or special purposes, activities, or objects. (2) The
designated number of full-time regular positions approved for each budget unit.

response to the national economic crisis for the Federal Government to make
significant investments in both the public and private sectors.
